If you are a site owner, a problem can always surface and it doesn't necessarily need to be connected with the hosting service. For instance, something can go wrong when you update a web-based application or some crucial content might be edited or erased by accident. Irrespective of what the nature of the problem may be, you will have to get in touch with the support team and ask them to recover a backup or to assist you in solving the problem that you're struggling with. How fast they'll do it will determine the interval of time that your sites will be offline. For particular sites such as community portals or web stores, a prolonged outage duration often equals losing users and money. Having said that, it's pretty important for you to use the services of a hosting company that offers not only a good help desk support service, but also a timely one.
Our cloud hosting plans feature a one-hour response guarantee, which goes to say that regardless of what enquiry or issue you may have, we'll always be there to assist you. In reality, it seldom takes more than half an hour to get an issue solved or a question answered, and this is valid for both pre-sales and technical matters. Our help desk support team members will be at your service 24/7, even on weekends and legal holidays, which suggests that you'll always receive timely support. We understand just how valuable time can be, so by the time we reply to your trouble ticket or email, we will have explored the issue and, if we haven't come up with a solution, we will give you more information about what you need to do on your end – if the case necessitates this. With our support service, you can be certain that there will be someone to help you momentarily, regardless of what time of day or night it is.
We guarantee that if you post a ticket via your hosting Control Panel or write an email concerning your semi-dedicated server, you will get an answer within 1 hour max. You can contact us at any time with regard to billing, technical or general matters and since we're on duty night and day, you'll invariably get help right on time. Depending on the particular issue or question, we'll supply you with more details, resolve the complication if it's been caused by something that is within our reach or advise you on what actions to take if you have to adjust a particular setting for an app that we can't access. You can forget about waiting for an entire day for every reply. In reality, in most cases we respond to tickets and emails within no more than 20-25 minutes.

Will the Indianapolis Colts put up another high total when they play host to the Miami Dolphins this afternoon at 4:25PM ET?
According to oddsmakers at BetNow.eu, the Colts are favored at home in this game, as they are getting odds of -7.5 points against the Dolphins. The over/under total for the contest is currently listed at 51 points. The public betting for this game currently has 57 percent going on the Dolphins on the road.
The Indianapolis Colts are one of the hottest teams in the NFL right now, winning four straight after a 38-10 victory over the Titans last week. Indy is now 5-5 overall, 5-4-1 against the spread and 6-4 with the over. The Colts have hit the over in five of their last seven games.
The Colts are really heating up on offense, as they have scored 37 or more in three of their last four. On the year, they are averaging 29.8 per game while putting up 381.5 yards per contest. Andrew Luck has thrown for 2,769 yards and 29 touchdowns with just nine interceptions. He has spread the ball out well. T.Y. Hilton is the leading receiver with 38 catches for 585 yards and six scores. Marlon Mack is the leading rusher with 471 yards and four touchdowns. Defensively, Indy is allowing 24.9 points and 364.9 yards per game. Their pass defense is 23rd in the NFL, allowing 259.2 yards per contest.
The Miami Dolphins suffered their third loss in four games, as they fell 31-12 at Green Bay two weeks ago before going on the bye week. The Dolphins are now 5-5 overall, 5-5 against the spread and 5-5 with the over/under total. They have hit the under in their last two games.
Miami is not performing well on offense this year, averaging just 19.9 points and 313.6 yards per game. Brock Osweiler has thrown for 1,247 yards with six touchdowns and four interceptions in place of Ryan Tannehill. However, Tannehill is expected to suit up today after missing the last five games with a shoulder injury. He has thrown for 972 yards and eight touchdowns with five interceptions this year. Frank Gore has 528 rushing yards to lead Miami on the ground. Danny Amendola is the leading receiver with 47 catches for 456 yards and a score. Defensively, Miami is allowing 25.6 points and 391.6 yards per contest. Their run defense ranks 29th in the NFL, allowing 141.3 yards per game.
The Colts have hit the under in six of their last seven games in November, but have hit the over in six of their last eight conference games.
The Dolphins have hit the under in five of their last six road games and have hit the over in four of their last five following a bye.
The Colts will score some points. They have put up at least 29 in five straight and six of their last seven. This Miami defense certainly doesn't seem like one to end that streak. The Miami offense could see a surge in production with Tannehill back. Miami says their will be no limitations on him and the Dolphins will need to score if they are going to win. While the total is set pretty high, I can see both teams comfortably getting into the high 20's to allow the over to hit without much difficulty.


24 7 News Net - Psychic Bets .com Sollog at 80% WIN RATIO on his NFL Picks.
Once again we were given FIVE LOCKS by the Amazing Sollog who went 5-0 in Week 1 of the NFL 2010 Season.
Two games he lost in weird plays at end of games, turning WINS into loses.
As Sollog warned us, he will not be 100% on this, but he will be way better than any of the professional handicappers. A handicapper who hits 60% of NFL games is considered THE BEST THERE IS, so far Sollog is running 80%.
He is now 8-2 for the 2010 NFL Season.
The unusual ending to the Manning bowl, where the game was WON and all the Colts had to do was run out the clock, ended when the Colts had an unneeded running play and it resulted in a fumble allowing a last minute TD by Eli Manning to occur.
We were already congratulating Sollog on that amazing pick, the score was only 45 points and the lock was under 48. The last seconds TD by Eli made the game 52 points, a last minute loss for Sollog.
We'll be monitoring the picks of Sollog this season to see where the top psychic in the world ends up winning percentage wise this year. 60% winning ratio by professional handicappers is considered GREAT, so Sollog's 80% winning ratio shows he is THE GREATEST SPORTS HANDICAPPER EVER.
We asked Sollog why he is missed two games, he laughed, and said, "If I was 100% it would shatter the illusion of Free Will that MORTALS have, the games are known to my oracle, how the two loses came out shows they were picked to show only professional gamblers should be using my high winning percentage. As I told you, the Dallas game was most likely an intentional LOSS by oracle and there may be one more..."
Here is the LINK to where you can get the SOLLOG LOCK NEXT WEEK.
If you want to know the SOLLOG LOCK before the game, JOIN PSYCHIC BETS .com. If you are a gambler, you can afford to pay the weekly fee.
Sollog says gamblers should donate 10% of all winnings to his Temple, TOH, or Temple of Hayah.


This LEGO Hexbug maze is super cool! My kids had so much fun designing and engineering it and then racing their hexbugs through it.
Our LEGO car maze activity from the Learning with LEGO book was such a hit with my kids. So when my son got hexbugs a few weeks ago, I knew a LEGO hexbug maze was on the agenda!
To say my kids enjoyed this would be a major understatement. They LOVED it! And so did my husband. Haha. They had an absolute blast racing hexbugs through the maze.
They started out by making a regular maze and had lots of fun with that, but then the fun got taken up a notch when my son came up with the idea to add bridges to his maze.
He made several bridges that went above the maze and the hexbugs had to go under them. It was quite an engineering task because he had to rebuild it a few times do to the bridge being so low that the hexbugs could not fit underneath.
This LEGO maze was a fantastic way to develop critical thinking and problem solving skills. He was constantly thinking through how to make the maze correctly and what to do when things didn't go as planned.
We all loved picking a hexbug and cheering it on to win the maze race! They thought it was so much fun.
Invite your kids to build a maze on a large baseplate. Encourage them to add additional structures like buildings and bridges.
Let the hexbugs race through the maze.
It is such a simple and easy activity to set up for the kids, but will keep them occupied and having fun for a loooong time!

I create compositions of colour and form using traditional techniques in varying degrees of abstraction. I work in the studio from sketchbooks and photography and use watercolour, acrylic, inks and mixed media. Visual sources include evocative landscapes from around the UK and other natural and rural environments. Some of my paintings are suggestive of geographic locations rather than depictions of a specific view. In others, the shapes, colours and patterns are abstracted to leave just an impression of the environment. There will always be some, however, that are just what I see on the day!
David Johns welcomes visitors all year round by appointment.
I studied fine art at Reigate School of Art. My paintings are bold, expressive and colourful. I paint faces, characters, people and landscape subjects, both abstract and figurative. I work in acrylic and I use expressive techniques such as layering and dripping paint, scratching and working with a blunt brush. Many of my paintings feature portraits of people who do not actually exist but are suggestive of characters we all may recognise. Others subjects come completely from my imagination. My influences come from Abstract Expressionism and Street Art.

Superyachts in 2030 – What has to change?
The second session of The Superyacht Forum Live involved looking at future ambitions with a critical eye…
The second session of The Superyacht Forum Live was a panel discussion about what has to change in the industry leading up to 2030. The aim of the panel was to present topics for debate and discussion identifying the core issues that we need to optimise, change, stop doing and improve in our sector. Martin Redmayne, Chairman of The Superyacht Group was joined onstage by Joseph Adir of OceanTech Aquisitions, Paolo Casani CEO of Camper and Nicholsons, Dr Daniel Chatterjee of MTU, Paul Miller director of Millstream Underwriting, Fiorenzo Spadoni UK director at RINA, and Gary Ward of Jotun.
The overarching theme of our event here in Amsterdam kicked off with Joesph Adir sending a forewarning to fellow delegates. Although in the previous session the market was described as a 'feeding frenzy', Adir warned, "Don't get too dizzy with all of the cash that appears to be in the bank. There are too many deposits in too many shipyards which is making everyone feel very wealthy. But we have no idea what is going to happen in the future."
The lack of human capital is of course one of the major sticking points and future hurdles facing the industry. While this was addressed on stage, delegates in the crowd were also invited to share their opinions. What was eventually noted, was that the lack of human capital is simply the source of an issue which branches out into a number of individual difficulties, such as; Hiring from a diverse talent pool, shifting ambassadorial roles onto superyacht owners and increasing the right kind of publicity that will expose the next generation to a burgeoning industry.
Gary Ward of Jotun was applauded for his analogy which emphasised the importance of working collectively as an industry all the way up the supply chain. Ward utilised a piece of text from his nine-year-old daughter's science textbook which highlighted the various consequences that would occur if all 7 billion people jumped on the spot at the same time, and the profound effects it would have on the world. Of course, the example was meant demonstrate the power of collective action, something notoriously absent from the superyacht industry agenda. At the end of the speech Kiran Haslam of Princess yachts told the crowd, "This is the guy everyone is going to want to talk to at the bar later."
Paul Miller, of Millstream Unlimited, highlighted the lack of safety and security regulations on private vessels, something which creates a number of headaches for those in the superyacht insurance sector. Miller posed the question to the audience, "Why is that a commercial vessel is so much safer than private yacht when they are both the exact same size and specifications?"
Forum delegates also discussed the need for innovation in energy and propulsion, Dr Daniel Chatterjee, of MTU Rolls Royce, led the conversation arguing that, "A lot of really great technology already exists, it's just a matter of getting it out there to the clients." Technology in a more general sense, was also a major talking point, with Fiorenzo Spadoni stating that there needs to be further advancements in respect to the 'data ecosystem'. Generally speaking, most superyachts have a wide range of technology systems, to be able to better integrate that, and have a platform which allows for better inter-communication between services, would be incredibly useful for captains and engineers alike.
Ken Hickling our interim co-chair for the forum rounded off the session by identifying those main changes mentioned above, and delegating 'fish bowl' discussions for the crowd and speakers to take part in. All speakers and members of the crowd agreed unanimously that data sharing and communication between stakeholders needs to be improved, certainly before 2030.

All day, yesterday and today all I've been listening to is Big K.R.I.T. new mix-tape 4eva N A Day. All I can say is do not sleep on this Southern Fried talent. From the lyrics to the chopped & screwed beats, K.R.I.T. has become one of my top 5 rappers of all time. I know that this is coming off to quick even though he's half mainstream and still fresh, but this rapper has potential and guts. Makes me proud to be from the south, it reminds me of a Outkast mixed with UGK. & on his art cover, explains it all for what you about to listen to. Please listen and be open-minded & download.Hopefully he goes on tour like some other rappers I admire, like Kendrick Lamar, A$AP Rocky, and Kirko Bangz. All artist have raw talent and potential. Basically they keep it real. & the thing that is great about all, is that they tell stories of truth and of what most go through.Yeah it's cool to hear what others have, but give me something I can relate to or another normal individual can speak on. That's what I feel like our music is lacking of, true emotions that we all have in common. I really feel as though the new generation that is coming up will restore what we've been missing.

Digital economy big job creator
CHINA'S digital economy is predicted to create over 400 million jobs by 2035, a new report has said.
The Internet-based economy could be worth US$16 trillion by then, said a Boston Consulting Group report, released at a new economy summit sponsored by Alibaba Group on Saturday.
Alibaba, China's biggest online trader, may generate over 100 million of those jobs, according to the report, with 30 million created last year.
As jobs are created, digital technology like cloud computing and artificial intelligence will increasingly replace more manpower, the report said.
Meanwhile, 20 percent of the world's population will become self-employed or freelance via the Internet in the next decade, Alibaba Vice President Gao Hongbing said at the summit.
The digital economy will surpass the manufacturing sector in scale and account for a quarter of the world's economy, Gao said.

Energy use set to rise slightly
CHINA'S energy consumption is expected to reach 4.36 billion tons of coal equivalent in 2016, up 1.4 percent year on year.
Non-fossil fuel consumption accounts for 13.3 percent of the total amount, up 1.3 percentage points year on year, as China encourages users to switch from coal and oil to cleaner fuels, said Nur Bekri, director of the National Energy Administration.
China aims to raise the ratio of non-fossil fuel consumption to 14.3 percent in 2017, while cutting the ratio of coal to 60 percent, he added.
He also called for efforts to promote clean energy and emission cuts, optimize China's energy structure and boost global energy cooperation.

Nod for 5 new private lenders
INA'S banking regulator yesterday gave approval to five new private banks, bringing the number of such lenders to 16.
The five banks will be in Beijing and the provinces of Jiangsu, Jilin, Liaoning and Shandong, the China Banking Regulatory Commission said.
Each of the banks will be co-sponsored by at least two private capital providers.
In 2014, China approved a pilot scheme setting up five private banks to give private capital a bigger role in the country's financial system.
The new private banks are set to boost financial support for smaller firms, as the state-owned lenders usually favor state-owned enterprises.
Small and medium-sized enterprises account for around 60 percent of China's gross domestic product and some 80 percent of new jobs, but they are struggling to cope with weaker global demand and tight credit.
Data from the CBRC showed the total assets of the first batch of five private lenders were 132.93 billion yuan (US$19 billion) at the end of September.
New five-year plan brings hope to China's west
BEIJING - China's new five-year plan on developing its western regions will promote sustainable and healthy development and boost the confidence of overseas investors.
Chinese Premier Li Keqiang said on Friday during a meeting that the 13th Five-Year (2016-2020) Plan period is a crucial time for western regions to achieve transformation and upgrading.
He said the regions should push forward supply-side structural reform, moderately expand demand, boost innovation, continue to implement the west development strategy, and strengthen coordination between it and other major strategies such as the Belt and Road Initiative and development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt.
The fundamental way to develop the regions is by enhancing their endogenous growth through innovation, reform and opening-up, Li said.
China launched its "go west" strategy in 2000 to boost economic development of 12 western provincial-level regions -- Chongqing, Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan, Tibet, Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia, Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia, Guangxi and Qinghai -- that are home to more than 400 million people.
Under the strategy, the western regions enjoy support in infrastructure construction, foreign investment, environmental protection, education and talent retention.
From 2000 to 2016, the Chinese government invested 6.35 trillion yuan ($914 billion) in 300 major projects, mostly in infrastructure and energy, in western regions.
In 2016 alone, 743.8 billion yuan was invested in 30 major projects in western regions, according to the National Development and Reform Commission.
China's "go west" strategy has brought western regions to their best period of development in history and promoted coordinated growth of the regional economy, said Gao Xincai, vice president of Lanzhou University in Gansu Province.
The total GDP of the 12 regions included in the "go west" strategy accounted for only 17 percent of the country's total in 2000, but the figure had risen to 21.2 percent by the end of 2015, official data showed.
As the Chinese economy urgently needs to address entrenched structural imbalances and find sustainable growth momentum in the next five years, new content should be added to the "go west" strategy, said Chen Yao, deputy director of the Research Center on Western Region Development of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
He noted that the industrial structure in western regions should be transformed into a high value-added and environment-friendly one advocating innovation and technology.
Indeed, as Premier Li stressed in the meeting, infrastructure construction and ecological protection are two key elements in promoting the sustainable development of western regions. He urged efforts to protect the environment, improve road and water infrastructure, and ensure the quality of drinking water for rural residents.
Li called for efforts to develop an advanced manufacturing sector and emerging sectors, and promote the development of industries with "ethnic characteristics" such as medicine and traditional handicrafts.
The new five-year plan also aims to create a healthy investment environment in western regions to help investors, advance government administrative reform and improve services, said Chen.
More efforts should be made to streamline administrative approvals, reduce taxation and fees, cut transaction costs, improve the business environment, promote entrepreneurship, and encourage private capital to help develop western regions, according to the plan.
In the 16 years since the "go west" strategy was implemented, more overseas investors have come to western China in search of opportunity.
More than 200 German companies have set up operations in Sichuan in manufacturing, environmental services, vocational education and other industries, according to the 16th Western China International Fair held in November in Chengdu, Sichuan Province.
In addition, more cooperation with eastern China and countries along the Belt and Road is encouraged in the new five-year plan to open the west.
Cooperation between eastern and western China has shown itself to be an effective platform for advancing both economic growth and common prosperity, so it needs to be maintained for the long term, said Chen Xiushan, a professor of regional economy at Renmin University of China.
He said that more technological, industrial and information resources in regions along the Yangtze River Economic Belt should be channeled into western regions to boost concerted development of eastern, western and central regions and help with poverty-relief measures in the west.
Meanwhile, cooperation between western regions and countries along the Belt and Road should also be strengthened, which will attract more investment opportunities and promote personnel and cultural exchanges, Chen added.

Antoine-François Prévost d'Exiles (* 1. April 1697 in Hesdin, Département Pas-de-Calais; † 23. November 1763 in Courteuil, Département Oise) war ein französischer Schriftsteller. Heute ist er nur noch mit einem einzigen seiner zahlreichen Werke bekannt, dem relativ kurzen Roman Manon Lescaut.

Leben

Jugend und literarische Anfänge
Prévost (der in der Literaturgeschichte schlicht unter "L'Abbé Prévost" figuriert) wuchs auf als zweiter Sohn eines aus dem reichen Bürgertum stammenden procureur du roi, d. h. eines königlichen Richters, dem sein (gekauftes) Amt adelsähnliche Privilegien verschaffte, ohne ihn jedoch schon de jure zu adeln. Seine glückliche Kindheit endete abrupt, als er mit 14 Jahren seine Mutter und seine etwas jüngere Lieblingsschwester verlor. Ein Jahr später (1712) überwarf er sich offenbar mit seinem Vater, brach seine Studien auf dem heimischen Jesuitenkolleg ab, verdingte sich als Soldat und nahm am Spanischen Erbfolgekrieg teil. Bei dessen Ende 1713 verließ er das Militär und absolvierte am jansenistisch orientierten Pariser Collège d'Harcourt das rhétorique genannte letzte Schuljahr. Hiernach wurde er Novize im Jesuitenorden, dem er aber 1715 den Rücken kehrte, um für kurze Zeit wiederum Soldat zu werden.

Nach einem neuerlichen Zwischenspiel bei den Jesuiten nahm er ab 1718 als Offiziersaspirant am französisch-spanischen Krieg teil, desertierte jedoch 1719 und flüchtete sich 1720 nach einigen unsteten und schwierigen Monaten in den Benediktinerorden. Hier legte er 1721 sein Gelübde als Mönch ab, angeblich unter inneren Vorbehalten.

In den nächsten Jahren lebte er in verschiedenen, meist jansenistisch ausgerichteten Klöstern, studierte Theologie, wurde zum Priester ordiniert und betätigte sich als Prediger. Bei seinen Oberen scheint er allerdings als nicht recht zuverlässig gegolten zu haben. Immer wenn er konnte, übte er seine Feder, weshalb man ihn 1727 in das Pariser Kloster Saint Germain-des-Prés versetzte, wo er an einem historiographischen Gemeinschaftswerk der Benediktiner mitarbeiten sollte, der vielbändigen Gallia Christiana. Seine eigenen Vorstellungen waren aber sichtlich andere: Er hatte inzwischen einen Roman begonnen, dessen ersten beiden Bände 1728 erschienen: Mémoires et Aventures d'un homme de qualité qui s'est retiré du monde (Erinnerungen und Abenteuer eines Edelmanns, der sich von der Welt zurückgezogen hat).

Unstete Jahre
Prévost, der schon seit längerem Schwierigkeiten mit seinem Abt hatte, versuchte nun, um mehr Zeit zum Schreiben zu bekommen, sich in ein Kloster mit einer laxeren Handhabung der Regeln versetzen zu lassen. Als dies nicht gelang, verließ er heimlich sein Pariser Kloster und vollendete in einem Versteck die Bücher III und IV der Mémoires. Mit dem Honorar ging er über Holland nach London, um sich dem königlichen Haftbefehl, lettre de cachet zu entziehen, den sein Abt wegen unerlaubten Sich-Entfernens gegen ihn erwirkt hatte.

In London konvertierte Prévost zum Anglikanismus und wurde Hauslehrer eines jungen Mannes aus bester Familie, schmiedete aber Heiratspläne mit dessen Schwester und wurde auf Betreiben des Vaters ausgewiesen. Er ging nach Holland, wo er 1731 die Bücher V und VI der Mémoires publizierte. Ihnen hängte er rasch noch einen nur locker damit verbundenen siebenten Band an: L'Histoire du chevalier des Grieux et de Manon Lescaut (Die Geschichte des Ritters des Grieux und Manon Lescauts). Es ist ein Roman, der sichtlich die eigene, offenbar so leidenschaftliche wie frustrierende und Schuldgefühle auslösende Liebe des Autors zu der Haager Edelkurtisane Lenki Eckhardt verarbeitet, die er kurz zuvor kennengelernt hatte.

Ebenfalls 1731 publizierte Prévost in Utrecht vier Bände eines schon in England begonnenen Romans: Histoire de Cleveland, fils naturel de Cromwell (Die Geschichte Clevelands, eines unehelichen Sohnes von Cromwell). Hiernach vollendete und publizierte er eine schon früher begonnene Übertragung der lateinisch verfassten Memoiren des Anti-Richelieu-Verschwörers François-Auguste de Thou (1607–1642) (1733).

Inzwischen hatte er zusammen mit Lenki Schulden angehäuft und floh nach London. Hier produzierte er eine Ein-Mann-Zeitschrift nach dem Muster von Addisons Spectator: Le Pour et le Contre (Das Für und Wider). Sie erschien in Paris und sollte das neu erwachte England-Interesse der gebildeten französischen Leser befriedigen. 1734 saß er wegen Wechselbetrugs kurz im Gefängnis und wurde ausgewiesen.

Prévost ging heimlich zurück nach Frankreich (wo ein separater Nachdruck von Manon Lescaut gerade von der Zensur verboten und beschlagnahmt worden war). Aus einem Versteck heraus nahm er Kontakt mit dem Benediktinerorden auf und erhielt vom Papst Vergebung für seine Apostasie (Abfall vom katholischen Glauben) sowie die Erlaubnis für ein verkürztes zweites Noviziat (1735).

Die ruhigen letzten Jahrzehnte
Offenbar war der Orden weitgehend mit der Einhaltung eines frommen Scheins zufrieden, denn Prévost schrieb auch als Novize pausenlos weiter: Neben den Faszikeln von Le Pour et le Contre erschienen 1735 die ersten Bände des Romans Le Doyen (=Dechant) de Killérine. Nach seinem Noviziat wurde Prévost in Paris Almosenier (aumônier) beim Fürsten von Conti, d. h. eine Art Privatpfarrer in hochadeligem Haus.

Hier schrieb und schrieb er: 1737/38 die letzten Bände des Cleveland, 1739/40 die des Doyen de Killérine, 1740 das 20. und letzte Faszikel von Le Pour et le Contre. Danach entwickelte er sich zum Spezialisten für romanähnliche historische Sachbücher und Biografien (Mémoires pour servir […] l'histoire de Malte, Histoire de Marguerite d'Anjou, Histoire de Guillaume le Conquérant). Danach verlegte er sich auf Reiseberichte (Voyages du capitaine Robert Lade) und begann 1746 eine Histoire générale des voyages, zunächst als Übersetzer englischer Reisebücher, dann in eigener Autorschaft. (1760, bei Band 15 hörte er auf und ließ andere Autoren weiterschreiben.)

Daneben erwarb er sich Meriten als Übersetzer von Werken eines der großen Autoren des europäischen "empfindsamen Romans", Samuel Richardson (1689–1761): 1751 Lettres anglaises, ou Histoire de Miss Clarisse Harlowe (Original 1748), 1755 Nouvelles lettres anglaises, ou Histoire du chevalier Grandisson (Original 1754). Ob auch die 1742 erschienene Richardson-Übersetzung Paméla, ou la vertu récompensée (Original 1740) schon von Prévost stammt, ist zweifelhaft.

1753 veröffentlichte er eine leicht überarbeitete und moralisierte Fassung des Romans Manon Lescaut.

Der Roman Manon Lescaut

Inhalt
Der Roman gilt heute als Prévosts Meisterwerk. Es ist die Geschichte des jungen Kleinadeligen Des Grieux, der vor dem Beginn seines geplanten Theologiestudiums der hübschen, ihrerseits fürs Kloster bestimmten Manon Lescaut begegnet, gemeinsam mit ihr nach Paris durchbrennt und aus Liebe zu ihr (die viel Geld verbraucht) nach und nach alle seine Vorstellungen von Anstand und Ehre über Bord werfen muss, bis er schließlich, nach Manons tragischem Tod im gemeinsamen Exil in den Kolonien (Louisiana), von seinem alten Freund Tiberge wiedergefunden und nach Frankreich zu einem sittlicheren Leben (in der Urversion von 1731 sogar zum Priestertum) zurückgeleitet wird.

 Hans Werner Henze: Boulevard Solitude, 1951

Ballett
Manon (Choreographie: Kenneth MacMillan, Musik von Jules Massenet). Das Ballett entstand 1973/74, als MacMillan 1970–1986 Ballettdirektor beim Royal Ballet war. Die Erzählstruktur des Balletts ähnelt der früheren Choreografie MacMillans zu Romeo und Julia von Prokofjew. Die Londoner Uraufführung wurde vom Publikum enthusiastisch aufgenommen. Weitere Aufführungen fanden durch die Ballettkompanien der Opernhäuser in Paris (1991 und 2015), Mailand (2014/15), Oslo (2015) und Budapest (2015) statt. In Dresden hatte das Stück am 7. November 2015 in der Semperoper Premiere, mit den Solisten Melissa Hamilton vom Royal Ballet und Jiří Bubeníček von der Semperoper. Dirigent war Paul Connelly.

2007 gestaltete der Choreograph Wang Xinpeng zusammen mit dem Dramaturgen und Schriftsteller Christian Baier das Ballett Manon Lescaut zur Musik von Giacomo Puccini (UA Ballett Dortmund 2007).

Here are the biggest disagreements when it comes to money -- and how to resolve them.
When you have a new baby, everything changes. Spending all day in your pj's becomes more necessity than luxury, spit-up removal tops your to-do list, and out of the blue you have a mountain of money problems. Couples who never fought about anything suddenly find themselves in cash crises right and left.
Often, experts say, budget blowups are actually less about money and more about control. "Money often represents power, love, freedom, and all sorts of other things that it really isn't," says Michael Bradley, EdD, a psychologist in Feasterville, Pennsylvania, and author of The Heart & Soul of the Next Generation (Harbor Press). "You're never going to solve the issues if you talk about dollars. You need to talk about the feelings behind the dollars." What financial friction do new parents face? Read on.
Cash clash: You love buying baby things. You say: "It's just a toy from Target." He says: "That's another $10. And why the fancy baby clothes?" He can't understand what's wrong with his sister's hand-me-downs.
Our experts say: While new moms are celebrating the newborn, dads are panicked about providing. "They're years into the future, thinking, Who will care then about whether the baby had new or used clothes? How will I pay for college?" says Bradley.
New moms -- who may be carrying extra baby weight and are no doubt sleep deprived -- are often dealing with self-esteem issues. They won't spend money on themselves (why waste it on "fat clothes"?), so buying baby booty becomes a great substitute, says Elizabeth Schomburg, senior vice president with Family Credit Counseling Service, in Chicago.
To get to the bottom of it all, think about what a purchase means to you. Did you grow up wearing castoffs from your older sister? Perhaps that's why you're so opposed to giving your baby secondhand clothing now. Talking it out may help you allay the feeling that you need to spend so much, or it might make your husband sympathetic to your plight.
Cash clash: You left a well-paying job to stay home with the baby, and now you're uneasy spending. Your husband doesn't limit your access to cash but makes little sarcastic comments. Plus, money's tight without your income. And since you're not making money, you don't feel entitled to spend any.
Our experts say: When women leave the working world, they often feel anxious and even guilty that they're no longer contributing financially. They went from being in total control of their life to being totally controlled by this baby.
Barbara Stefanacci, of Clifton, New Jersey, left her job three-and-a-half years ago when she had her first child, and she always feels guilty about spending. "My husband makes cracks like, 'Was this really necessary?' And yet he spends money on parts for his car, which I don't think is essential," she says. "I'm used to being independent, and it's hard not to have money just for me to spend on what I want."
What women often forget is that although they may not be bringing home a paycheck, they are contributing financially by doing the jobs of babysitter, housekeeper, and cook.
To help you gain back some control, go through your financial records with your husband, suggests Robert Pagliarini, author of The Six-Day Financial Makeover (St. Martin's Press). Once you've paid all the bills and put some money into savings, create a mad-money fund. "You can do whatever you want with yours, and your husband can do whatever he wants with his," says Pagliarini.
Cash clash: He feels you need a date once a week. You think it costs too much. There are far more practical things you could spend the money on. He says your relationship is worth the expense.
Our experts say: You can find ways to save. Going out for a quick bite doesn't have to cost a fortune.
If you dig deeper, though, you might find that this argument has more to do with feelings than fortune. "Money always gets the partner's attention," says Sallie Foley, a marriage therapist in Ann Arbor, Michigan. "If someone feels pushed out of the pecking order, as dads sometimes do, money may represent a way of asserting oneself." Splurging on a sitter may also symbolize to your husband that you value your relationship.
Anne Lido's husband had been begging her to find a sitter since their 2-year-old was born. This mother, from Merrick, New York, admits she didn't make much of an effort. "We had so many new expenses, paying for an extravagant dinner just wasn't a priority," she says.
After talking it out with her husband, she realized it wasn't about going anywhere fancy. "Now we [get a babysitter and] do our food shopping on Saturday night. It gives us time alone together and gets one of the weekly chores out of the way."
Cash clash: He wants to continue his golf game every Sunday, his weekly basketball games, and his once-a-month poker all-nighter. Just because you've had a baby doesn't mean he needs to put his hobbies on hold. You feel there isn't money for nonsense now that there are diapers to buy and college to save for.
Our experts say: This argument may not be about money at all. "She may be saying that it's too much money, but she really means that it's too much time away from home," says Pagliarini. He, on the other hand, is trying to prove that nothing in his life has changed. "That's a common fear reaction, because everything has changed," says Bradley. He may be resentful that you're spending a lot of time with the baby. Meanwhile, you're feeling resentment because he goes off to work and has adult interaction while you're at home, feeling guilty about taking any time for yourself.
See what you can do to make both of you happy. Maybe playing golf every Sunday is out of the question, but an evening of basketball once a week after the baby's gone down for the night might be okay. Your local YMCA may even have free or inexpensive babysitting, so while he's shooting hoops, you can swim or catch a Spinning class.
Cash clash: You want to move to a larger house in a nicer neighborhood with a better school district. He thinks you should stay put. The house is fine; the local school district is adequate.
Our experts say: "This couple may have had different visions that they've never figured out how to talk about," says Foley. Couples are often frightened of disagreeing, so they avoid confrontation. But the happiest couples are not necessarily the ones who think exactly alike. "The happiest are those with the greatest understanding of their differences and respect for those disparities," says Foley.
Because there are so many new bills when a baby arrives, you should decide what's really important to both of you. Sit down separately and create a list of your own top three financial goals -- for the short term (the next six months), the mid term (the next five years), and the long term (20 years out) -- suggests Schomburg. Maybe you want a bigger house, but he wants to pay off credit card debt. Look at your two lists, and really think about which goals make the most financial sense.
"Your baby won't be going to school for several years, so you might use this time to save for a down payment," says Schomburg. Keep in mind that in addition to a bigger mortgage, a bigger house also adds higher property taxes, higher electricity bills, and more.
While having a baby can bring out the worst in couples, it can also help them reach new understandings about money and the underlying concerns. Make up on the money issues, and you'll strengthen your relationship overall.

Restrictions lifted on KNOX platform running in Android 4.3 devices.
The UK government has given a stamp of approval to Samsung's security software, allowing it to be used for official communication.
Public sector employees can now use the platform on selected ranges of smartphones and tablets.
The UK's Communications and Electronics Security Group (CESG) assessed the security risks associated with the platform over months of testing.
The communication security body of Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) had previously identified three risks in Samsung's KNOX.
Details are based on the End User Devices (EUD) Security Guidance for Samsung Knox. The guidance identifies best practice of Samsung KNOX running in Samsung Android 4.3 devices.
Devices covered under the guidance include Galaxy Note 3, Galaxy S3, Galaxy S4 and Galaxy S5 which are KNOX enabled.
Earlier this month, the company had unveiled KNOX 2.0, which is an end-to-end secure mobile platform claiming to protect the data and privacy of enterprise users.

The city of Gallatin may soon host Middle Tennessee's newest music festival. Fire on the Water would bring 3,500 spectators to Lock 4 Park this August.
"We had a huge amount of people visit Gallatin during the total solar eclipse and we said 'Man, what else can we do?'" said Chamber of Commerce CEO Kim Baker.
The Gallatin city council unanimously supported the festival during an initial vote, but it must pass a second vote next week.
Baker said the event would cost the city about $50,000. Most of that money would pay the artists who perform.
"We're still working on a finalized lineup," Baker said. "But a lot of genres will be represented -- everything from indie to bluegrass to Americana."
Baker said the headliners will be similar to acts you'd see at Nashville's Live on the Green. And just like that festival, Gallatin hopes to make theirs an annual event.
Some community members have expressed concerns over traffic and parking during the event, but Baker said the city is working with emergency personnel to make sure logistics run smoothly and safely.
Tickets will cost $25 and will go on sale in April. The festival is scheduled for August 18 with music happening until 11:00 p.m.


The school holidays may have finished, but drivers are still facing those all-too-familiar Friday afternoon delays on Cornwall's roads.
There are long delays on the A30 near Mitchell after a car overturned on the westbound carriageway, while another accident on the eastbound carriageway has also blocked one lane.
Traffic is also unusually heavy on the A30 between Chiverton Cross and Carland Cross, with slow moving traffic in both directions.
There are also delays in many of the usual traffic blackspots across Cornwall - on the A39 near Treluswell near Falmouth, on the A30 approaching Hayle, and on the A38 westbound near Saltash.
Traffic is also extremely slow across the whole of Truro - with a broken down car near Waitrose causing further problems for drivers in the city.
Let us know of any problems you have encountered by emailing chris.matthews@westbriton.co.uk.

The Mercury Program: Chez Viking
Ani Cutt
If you are going to name an album after the home of a Viking, it better be a good depiction of what the home of a Viking may be. This vocal-less album starts off with an upbeat fanfare that turns into a slower, thematic melody line. The song continues on in what seems like a traditional song template only to return to a faster version of the upbeat fanfare, and back to the melody line introduced in the beginning of "Chez Viking."
Instead of picturing the inside of a Viking's house, consider this album to be what a Viking in a business suit riding the elevator up to a job interview would hear. This quartet from Gainesville, NY, has a solid grasp on how to bring together multiple time signatures and distinct rhythms to make beautiful music.
There are many elements to each song, and it is a welcomed change when the sudden introduction of floor toms and percussion replaces the constant snare drum in the middle of "Arrived/Departed." The guitar on every song somehow melds into a short vibraphone solo quickly becoming a drum and bass duet.
The inclusion of vibraphone makes what could easily be just another elevator band interesting. It adds a little flair to each song, and the production technique of radio static at the beginning of "Katos" brings a different twist to what is traditionally viewed as background music. It's surprising the entertaining and calming quality this album has. Throw it on while taking a bath or throwing a cocktail party.

I am away from home this weekend so progress actually on the layout is halted but before we set off, I managed to get everything but two sets of closure rails down on Comstock Road. This allowed me to push things through the other leg of the diamond to test things out. Putting down the closure rails require tweaking things so everything works so it is a non-trivial step but it is exciting to be able to see the "end" of track laying.
I anticipate getting the throw bars, linkages and servos installed on the remaining turnouts in the next couple of weeks.


You should be able to install your game from the Backup CD by completing the following instructions.
Click your "Start" button (located in the lower left hand corner of your screen.
Click on the icon associated with the CD drive. The autorun should start. Follow the prompts and you should be set!
If you encounter problems reinstalling from older Backup CDs, just try reinstalling directly from the iWin website as there maybe an update to the game.

Q: Scalatra set port on http server I want to use scalatra for my http server mocks, I´m using gradle to run my bdd test.
I´ve been reading the documentation but I cannot find a way to specify the port where to listen without use scala.build, but again my problem is that my project is a Gradle project, since our project is polyglot.
Regards.

To start, I should let you know that I'm new to both Stata and this listserv, and in addition to just learning the basic stata syntax, I'm probably not as computationally sophisticated as most members here.
2) I want to use multiple imputation on sequential regression to see the change in R-sq with each block of variables.  I figured out that nestreg is the way to do run sequential regression, but it is not compatible with the mi command.  The manual says that one can use the cmdok option to force imputation of missing variables when the command is not compatible with mi, if it is a legitimate thing to do in general.  So my questions are: a) is it legitimate to use mi on missing data with nested regressions, and b) what would be the correct syntax (I can't seem to get it to work).
