Business /
Berbera expansion to consume additional USD 270mln
By Birhanu Fikade
New container terminal, facilities on the horizon
By Birhanu Fikade, Hargeisa, Somaliland
The Somaliland Port Authority has planned to spend an additional outlay of USD 269 million for the Berbera Port container terminal, yard operations and expansion of facilities to be completed by the end of 2025.
Said Hassan Abdullahi, general manager of Somaliland Port Authority, told Ethiopian reporters at his office in Berbera that once completed, the expansion project which requires a total of USD 442 million in a phase by phase development is expected to increase the port's handing capacity from the existing 150,000 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU) to 400,000 TEUs. When 70 percent of that volume reaches to its capacities, additional 400,000 TEUs of 20 and 40-feet mixed containers will be added to the Port facilities, requiring additional investment of USD 269 million, the general manager said.
The Berbera Port expansion project that commenced 11 months ago, has now reached halfway in to its completion and by the end of 2020, the first phase is expected to be commissioned.
According to Abdullahi, so far, a 40 percent increase in container cargo has been registered since the expansion project has been undergoing. These is attributed to the newly added machines such as mobile cranes and reach stackers,which has increased the loading and unloading of containers in recent months. Since last year, the 5,000 TEUs per month operation has now reached to 16,000 TEUs per month, the general manager noted.
The overall expansion project will bring about a total of 1,500 meters wide berth that can dock three mother ships at a time. The existing port facility accommodates five vessels on a 650 meter long berth.
It is to be recalled that Somaliland President, Musse Bihi Abdi and Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, chairman and CEO of DP World Group, have launched the official expansion project at the Berbera Port.
The tripartite Berbera Port Development agreement inked in 2016 and further refined and ratified in 2017 has provided a 51 percents take for DP World, the UAE port operator, and 30 percent forSomaliland. Ethiopia has secured a 19 percent stake and is expected to outlay USD 110 million for the Berbera Corridor.
In addition to the Port project, the Somaliland government is drawing attention once again, in its stride to develop a12.2 square kilometer Greenfield Free Economic Zone,1o kilometers out of Berbera Port.
According to the Somaliland Port Authority, the first phase of this project which will be finalized by the end of 2022, is focusing on a four square kilometers of land out of the 12.2 square kilometers that is about to be developed, to which 10 international companies have expressed interest. It will target a wide range of businesses including warehousing, logistics, commerce, manufacturing and other related businesses.Most importantly, it will serve as a transshipment and transit traffic hub of land and sea cargo movements. While the expansion of the Berbera Port goes on, the existing port has become instrumental in handling general and containerized cargos.
According to experts, the deal between Somaliland and DP World will allow Somaliland to enjoy a trade surplus ifDP World and Somaliland could implement the Berbera Port deal as planned. Reports indicate that both sides are expecting to see a trade surplus of USD 6.8 billion by 2025. According to some forecasts, within ten years, Somaliland can grow its GDP from around USD 1.5 billion to USD 12 billion.
Once the expansion finalizes, the Somaliland government expects to handle 30 percent of Ethiopia's cargo traffic. Nevertheless, Somaliland is determined to have its share of the market.
One challenging factor, according to its officials, is that Ethiopian traders have an erroneous outlook towards Somaliland. The Port Authority chief and many officials believe that many Ethiopians fail to differentiate between Somaliland and Somalia (Mogadishu). To change that, the Somalilanders said they are about to launch campaigns where they will be visiting Addis Ababa and other parts of Ethiopia soon.

A company of businessman Jim Kennedy is seeking damages from the Criminal Assets Bureau (Cab) claiming it had no right to seek a court order which froze the ownership of lands in Carrickmines, Dublin, for several years.
Jackson Way Properties Ltd (JWPL), a Birmingham-registered company, claims a High Court freezing order obtained in July 2006 was wrongfully obtained, initially over 108 acres, and later over 17.6 acres rezoned in 1997 from agriculture to industrial use.
In January 2014, following years of litigation, that freezing order was lifted over all the land.
JWPL is now claiming damages for alleged negligence, breach of duty and breach of constitutional and European convention rights with regard to the original 2006 order.
The Cab denies the claims and contends JWPL is legally prevented from making such a claim now when it had consented to a variation of the freezing order in 2010 and had not previously appealed against that order.
Mr Justice Raymond Fullam has reserved his decision.

Livestream: Sir Simon Rattle – without audience
Saturday, 06. March 2021, 6.00 pm
Munich, Philharmonie im Gasteig
Ondřej Adámek
"Where are You?", for Mezzo-soprano and Orchestra [2020] - commissioned by musica viva and the London Symphony Orchestra | world premiere
Olivier Messiaen
Et exspecto resurrectionem mortuorum - für Bläser und Orchester
Sir Simon Rattle, Conductor
Magdalena Kožená, Mezzo-Soprano
Norbert Ommer, Sound design
Where do we come from, and where are we headed? These are the great existential questions faced by the two composers in our concert, each in a very personal situation. In 1963 organist-composer Olivier Messiaen was commissioned by the French state to write a piece commemorating the fallen in the two world wars. A devout Catholic, he trusted in the Christian promise of resurrection and discovered new musical forces in nature and in India, a culture far removed from the West. His paths in this quest cross with those of Czech composer-conductor Ondřej Adámek, whose new work, commissioned by Bavarian Radio's Musica Viva series and the London Symphony Orchestra, confronts the at once simple and great question of God's existence. He begins exactly where the Bible begins: his new work, written for mezzo-soprano Magdalena Kožená, begins and ends with the Word.

PART OF THE MUSICA VIVA CONCERT SERIES
This concert is part of the musica viva concert series. Founded by the German composer Karl Amadeus Hartmann in 1945 in Munich, musica viva is still one of the world's most famous events for future-oriented and contemporary music, where many experimental works and performances for orchestra and chamber music receive their premiere.
BRSO-concerts without live audience until april 5, 2021
On March 3, 2021, the Federal Chancellor and the heads of government of the federal states decided to extend the lockdown until March 28, 2021, among other measures to contain the corona pandemic. The orchestra's anticipation of being able to play in front of a live audience again after Lockdown is great. Unfortunately, it is extremely unlikely that this will be possible before Easter. Therefore the BRSO has decided not to give concerts in front of a live audience up to and including April 5 (Easter Monday).
Further concert with Sir Simon Rattle on March 6, 2021 at 9.30 pm
In a second concert, Sir Simon Rattle, the Bavarian Radio Chorus and Symphony Orchestra will present Henry Purcell's Funeral music of Queen Mary and Georg Friedrich Haas's hour-long ensemble piece in vain, an exceptional work that combines sound and light to achieve a breath-taking intensity.
To the concert on 6.3. at 9.30 pm

Home > People > Douglas (Doug) Rock
Douglas (Doug) Rock
by SKeira Apr 11, 2016
External Advisory Board Member
Special Executive Advisor and retired Chairman/CEO, Smith International
For more than twenty years, Doug led Smith International, a global provider of oil and natural gas exploration and development products and services. Under his leadership, Smith grew from approximately $200 million in revenues to more than $8 billion in revenues before its merger with Schlumberger Limited, the world's largest oilfield services company, in 2009.
Today, Doug serves on the board of directors for Trinity Industries, Inc., headquartered in Dallas, Texas, which provides products and services to the industrial, energy, transportation, and construction sectors.
Named a Penn State Alumni Fellow and Distinguished Alumnus, Doug is Chairman of the Rock Ethics Institute External Advisory Board and member of the Liberal Arts Development Council. He also served on the University's For the Future: The Campaign for Penn State Students Campaign Executive Committee. Doug and his wife, Julie, endowed the Rock Ethics Institute, its directorship, and the dean's chair in the College of the Liberal Arts. They also supported the Moore Building project for the Department of Psychology.


Initiating its first action in the multi-crore Stock Guru scam, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has issued attachment orders on properties worth Rs83 crore of main accused Ullas Prabhakar Khaire and his wife Raksha under anti-money laundering laws.
The seized properties, spread in various parts of the country like Mumbai, Ratnagiri and Nagpur in Maharashtra, Hyderabad and other cities in Andhra Pradesh and few places in Haryana, include some 'benami' immovable assets that the couple had allegedly purchased on fake identities.
The agency will soon issue prohibitory orders on these assets, including cash, jewellery and bank accounts, under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
ED took the latest action after it recorded the statement of the duo, lodged in Tihar jail here in judicial custody, sometime back and went through the probe reports of other agencies in this regard.
The agency's action to attach these properties under PMLA is aimed at depriving the accused of the benefits of these assets which are alleged to have been created through the "proceeds of crime" and duping investors of their hard earned money.
The sources said apart from the latest attachment orders, some more properties would soon be frozen under the same laws.
The agency had registered a money laundering case against Ullas Prabhakar alias Lokeshwar Dev and his wife Raksha alias Priyanka Saraswat earlier this year after they were caught by Delhi Police.
Acting in the same case, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), had arrested Yogendra Mittal, an officer from the Indian Revenue Service (IRS) for allegedly receiving bribes from Khaire after raids were conducted by the I-T department against him some years back.
The alleged perpetrators of Stock Guru scam—Ulhas Khaire and his wife Raksha—were arrested by Delhi Police's Economic Offences Wing (EOW) in November 2012, nearly 22 months after dubious searches carried out by the Income Tax officer.
Khaire and Raksha were arrested for allegedly duping around two lakh investors from seven states of nearly Rs493 crore by promising them high returns on their investment through their firm Stock Guru dealing in shares.
The couple had floated the firm in 2010 and allegedly lured people to invest in it promising highly lucrative returns of 20% per month followed by a subsequent refund of the principal amount in the seventh month, through source based investments in the share market.
In January 2013, market regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) barred seven persons and and one company from the markets for ten years for their involvement in the Stock Guru fraud.
The order follows a SEBI probe into complaints received by it regarding Khaire alias Lokeshwar Dev and his wife Raksha alias Priyanka Dev, both of whom used several aliases, fraudulently raising more than Rs1,500 crore through sale of preference shares of a company named SGI Research & Analysis.
Names used by them included Ulhas Prabhakar Khaire and Raksha J Urs, Siddharth Jay and Maya Siddharth Marathe, Dr Raj and Priya Zaveri, Dr Rakesh Kumar and Prachi Maheshwari.
A SEBI probe into the case found that the fraudsters had tricked the investors into putting in their money with a promise of 18% dividend, although the real assured dividend was a minuscule 0.12%.
Besides, the money might have mostly been collected in cash to avoid any regulatory glare, as SGI's bank account had entries for a total amount of just about Rs44 lakh towards subscription of its shares by 162 persons.

"Join Together" is a song by British rock band the Who, first released as a non-album single in June 1972. The song has since been performed live multiple times and has appeared on numerous compilation albums.

"Join Together" is also notable for its roots in The Who's abandoned Lifehouse album, a quality shared by The Who's other 1972 single "Relay".

Background
"Join Together", under the working title of "Join Together With the Band", was originally intended to be released as part of the Lifehouse album, but upon the album's shelving, the song was temporarily abandoned. Following the abandoning of Lifehouse, "Join Together", as well as other songs initially intended to appear on the album, was used in the working track list of another canceled Who album, Rock Is Dead—Long Live Rock!.

The song was recorded on the same day as "Relay" (its follow-up single) and a demo of "Long Live Rock" in May 1972. The band's lead singer, Roger Daltrey, remembers the song positively, but claims that he was initially skeptical about using synthesizer.

With the definitive title of "Join Together", the song was released as a non-album single in 1972, backed with a live and unedited version of Marvin Gaye's "Baby Don't You Do It", recorded at San Francisco's Civic Auditorium on 13 December 1971. The single was successful, reaching number 9 on the British singles chart and number 17 on the US Billboard Hot 100. The single was the second of three non-album singles relating to the aborted Lifehouse project, the others being "Let's See Action" and "Relay".

It has been included on several compilations, including Hooligans, The Singles, The Who: The Ultimate Collection, 20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection: The Best of The Who and The Who Hits 50!.

Promotion
A video shot in June 1972 shortly after completing the song featured The Who miming to playback in front of an excited audience. Roger Daltrey and Keith Moon play Jew's harps and Pete Townshend and John Entwistle play chord and bass harmonicas respectively to mime to all those instruments played by Townshend. Also during the video, Townshend and Daltrey's hands are bandaged.

The promotional film premiered in the U.S. on American Bandstand on 9 December 1972.

Live performances
The song was first performed live in their 1975 tour and 1976 tour, albeit more bluesy and abbreviated while attached to "My Generation"; it was played in this same arrangement early in the 1979 tour. It was performed once on the 1982 tour as well, tagged on to the end of "Magic Bus". For the 1989 tour, it was brought back, this time in the same arrangement as the studio version. On 13 January 2011, the band played this song with guests Debbie Harry, Jeff Beck and Bryan Adams as the show-closer for The Concert for Killing Cancer benefit show. It has also been played at almost every show of their The Who Hits 50! world tour. The band have also played the song in 2019.

Roger Daltrey – lead vocals, harmonica
Pete Townshend – guitar, synthesizer, jew's harp, backing vocals

Saying that "autonomous cars are coming" is basically a cliche at this point, but it's true. Even more true, however, is that semi-autonomous cars are already here. They can drive themselves, sort of. It's a wonderful party trick to be sure, but which semi-autonomous car should you buy? Watch us argue, disagree, and generally be delightfully witty and charming.
Or ingratiating and annoying – either way, you decide! That's the joy of What Car Should You Buy? Last time we talked about the joys of driving a track-ready muscle car, but this week, we've got cars like the Volvo XC90, the Tesla Model S, and the Mercedes S-Class. All of them can drive themselves (sort of, sometimes!) and all can be bought today, if you have a lot of money.
Watch this, and then tell us—which would you buy?

Contact San Diego Air and Space Museum Library and Archives
The Ryan Aircarft company is one of the most influential in history.
Ryan Aeronautical was established by T. Claude Ryan, born in Kansas in 1898 and raised in Southern California from a young age. He developed a fascination with aviation early on, and enrolled in the American College of Aviation in Los Angeles at age nineteen. Ryan was then trained as an Army cadet and served briefly as a pilot for the U.S. Forest Patrol, but soon left to establish Ryan Flying School in San Diego, which also served to give visitors a birds-eye view of San Diego. With a partner, B. F. Mahoney, he also established Ryan Airlines, which he eventually sold to Mahoney. It was Ryan Airlines that built Lindbergh's famous Spirit of St. Louis. Ryan Airlines also was the first to offer regular service to and from San Diego. Later, Ryan established a flight school and Ryan Aeronautical Company. The company played an important role in American aviation and in San Diego's history overall. With aircraft such as the Navion, VTOL jets, military trainers, X-13, and XFR-1, Ryan Aeronautical Company solidified its reputation as a leader in aircraft manufacturing for military, private and commercial uses. They also are known for the creation of the Firebee drone. Ryan aeronautical was the most significant developer of UAVs in the world from 1950s through the 1990s. Teledyne acquired Ryan Aeronautical Company in 1968, becoming Teledyne-Ryan Company. In 1996, Teledyne-Ryan merged with Allegheny-Ludlum Corporation and then with Northrop Grumman Corporation in 1999.

We are an App Marketing Agency
A Guide for App Store Optimization (ASO)
Let us first understand why app store optimization (ASO) needs to be done.The cost per install's average for application on iOS platform during December 2014 was between $1 and $2 based on the targeting, country and the traffic source, which is still rising this year. It was seen that the overall average acquired mobile user price during October 2014 had been $1/50. But then when you take into consideration the worldwide average and all the cost of marketing in markets that are highly competitive, it is way higher.
When it comes to games, it gets all the higher; as per Chart boost insights, present cost per install is about $3 in the 1st tier countries. Most of the developers are not able to invest that kind of money into extensive ad campaigns.
The most viable traffic source that anyone can imagine is app store search. Research outputs indicate that nearly 63% of all the mobile application installations come from search results. People search out app stores in a variety of patterns and we will need to actually understand their behavior well in order to succeed.
Does App Store Optimization Need to Be Outsourced?
When you really think about it, there is really no need to outsource it. A lot of companies around offer single time service package that will include a detailed analysis of your app, suggest changes to keywords and some more things. But that's it! If you think about app store optimization as a long-term service to be outsourced, then you should change things, track closely and evaluate your app continuously.You can invest in a professional ASO (App Store Optimization) course or an ASO tool, which will be more valuable in the long run.
Key Factors for App Store Optimization
When it comes to SEO, there are two kinds- on-page and off page. Each of them has a special role to play in the web search algorithms. On-page factors are actually variables, which can be controlled and improved on your own; for instance, keywords and headlines. Off-page factors, on the other hand, are something that can be controlled, like page ranks and external links that point to your site.
When it comes to the app store environment, there are some factors, which help with ranking in the search results. You will be able to directly have control over the app keywords, app name and developer name and all these can have a direct impact on the search rankings for specific phrases. And this can be compared to on-page factors.
The search algorithm at the app store also considers the total number of downloads, the reviews, and ratings for any given app. You can to some extent influence these factors, but finally, even these get out of your border of jurisdiction and turn into off-page factors.

New Immunotherapy Vaccines Show Promise in Treating Brain Tumors
Researchers in Dana-Farber's Center for Neuro-Oncology are now launching attacks on glioblastomas from a new angle – by turning the patient's immune system against the cancer cells. Where targeted chemotherapy uses drugs to disable proteins that cancer cells need to grow, immunotherapy drugs stimulate the patient's immune system to recognize and kill cancer cells.
David Reardon, MD
Traditional drugs and even targeted chemotherapy agents have had little success in treating glioblastoma – the deadliest type of brain tumor.
"Immunotherapy represents a great hope for patients currently facing this disease," says David Reardon, MD, clinical director of the Center. "We're anxious to move this approach forward for brain cancer patients."
Last November, Reardon reported that a new cancer vaccine, rindopepimut, showed promise in a clinical trial of patients whose glioblastoma cells contain a particular gene mutation.
Cancer vaccines are a form of immunotherapy that have been studied and tested for many years with some success. They're often made from an individual patient's tumor cells, or parts of them, which are processed in the laboratory and returned to the patient to stimulate a strong immune response.
Rindopepimut, given along with the anti-angiogenic drug Avastin, significantly improved the survival of patients whose tumors carried the mutation known as EGFRvIII, which is found in about one-third of glioblastoma tumors.
"This is the first randomized clinical trial of immunotherapy to show a survival benefit in glioblastoma," Reardon says. "It is a very nice proof of concept."
Reardon is also heading a new clinical study of NeoVax, a "personalized neoantigen cancer vaccine," which is already in testing for melanoma at Dana-Farber.

The NeoVax vaccine is made with "tumor-specific antigens" that correspond to the unique set of such antigens on the surface of an individual patient's tumor cells. It's been shown that these highly specific antigens can stimulate a potent, focused immune response.
"We think NeoVax should be effective even if the tumor tries to change to become treatment-resistant," Reardon says.
The new pilot study, done in collaboration with Dana-Farber scientists Catherine Wu, MD, and Edward Fritsch, PhD, is testing the feasibility and safety of NeoVax in 15 patients.
If the vaccine proves effective, it will be combined in further trials with immune checkpoint blockers that target proteins PD-1 and PD-L1 to remove the brakes that cancer uses to suppress an immune response. New drugs that attack these checkpoints have had dramatic and long-lasting results in some patients with advanced, metastatic melanoma.
In a parallel project currently being tested in animal models, Reardon, in collaboration with David Mooney, PhD of the Wyss Institute, is optimizing an implantable "matrix" of biomaterials designed to reprogram immune cells in the patient's body to generate a potent immune attack on glioblastoma tumors.

If a huge iceberg breaks off from Antarctica and no one's around to hear it, did it even make a sound?
That's the question Chicago-based performance art duo, Luftwerk, answered when they took seismic readings of Antarctica's disintegrating ice and turned it into a public art installation, called White Wanderer. And the sound is a harrowing, distressing echo of groans that could be mistaken for a chorus of forewarning whales.
Petra Bachmaier and Sean Gallero were inspired for the project after one of the largest-ever recorded icebergs broke off from Antarctica's Larsen C Ice Shelf in July. Experts are at odds over what role climate change played in the trillion-ton iceberg's detachment but agree on the opportunity it provides to better understand what will happen to Antarctica, our oceans and us, as the world warms. The massive iceberg will float through the ocean for decades, which is where the name White Wanderer comes from.
To figure that out, Bachmaier and Gallero joined forces with Doug MacAyeal, a geophysical sciences professor at the University of Chicago who's taken 13 research trips to the continent since 1977.
During his trips, MacAyeal collected tens of thousands of gigabytes of seismic recordings of Antarctica's melting ice sheets. In 2006, he started turning those recordings into pieces of audio, which he shared with Luftwerk.
The team remixed the noises – three hours of data equals about thirty seconds of sound — into a composition that's currently being played to 30,000 daily commuters on four huge speakers at Chicago's Riverside Plaza. It's paired with a massive image of the 120-mile Larsen C crack that's applied to the skyscraper's façade.

Since the start of the school year, semester, various crimes have occurred on and near the American River College campus, including dozens of petty thefts, the arrest of two students with intention to distribute narcotics, and even one assault that victimized over seven students and faculty.
A student in an ARC calculus class witnessed a bike theft from the window of the classroom while listening to their professor's lecture.
ARC students are more than just fellow pupils – their interactions on campus create and facilitate a campus culture unique to this particular college, and it is imperative that students embrace a call to action in banding together to help deter campus crime.
ARC President Thomas Greene created a task force consisting of himself and other school officials, which includes Capt. John McPeek of the Los Rios Police Department.
Greene devised this task force with the intention of creating a culture of "shared responsibility" for safety on campus.
While Greene's task force is poised to make a difference, the initiative falls mostly on us as a student body to maintain the safety of our campus.
We as a campus should be more collectively aware of our surroundings, and more observant and watchful of other people in our presence.
The Los Rios Police Department periodically emails all students on the campus about when and where particular crimes have occurred. The email ends with safety tips so students can be aware of how to avoid a dangerous situation.
These tips are effective deterrents against becoming a victim of crime and many of the reported crimes on campus may have been deterred or prevented if awareness was more observed.
Traveling in numbers is always a good idea. Much as someone would like a second or third set of eyes looking for a lost item, multiple people around to notice oddities or suspicious activities is very helpful.
At any time of the day on campus, students and faculty walk with phones, tablets, and other valuables in plain sight – it only takes a second of distraction for the opportunity for theft to arise.
In today's world of instant-communication and social network overload, people's first instinct when a fight or incident breaks out is to record it on their phones or take pictures.
If a confrontation looks as if it's about to arise, why just walk by? If you witnessed someone being robbed, wouldn't supporting them, maybe walking with them to the police office to report an issue be of some solace if the theft couldn't be prevented?
How much of a difference does one's idea of community change when they are actually treated with respect, instead of just another victim?
The contact information of the LRPD is posted in every building and classroom across campus, but hardly anyone even notices. Wouldn't it would be a great convenience if all of us had that number saved in our cell phones?
Our first instinct instead should be to watch out for ourselves and others, and that's best accomplished with the collective effort of everyone.

Onef is a Human Hero character encountered in the first part of The Banner Saga.
Some relation to Ekkill has seemingly driven this man away from Frostvellr, though he has never told you much about the exact reasons why.
He is the brother-in-law of Ekkill and murdered his own wife, claiming that she died of an illness. When the Dredge started invading, he tried to take control and used Ekkill as a puppet, presenting him as a madman.
This allows the Backbiter to move through both friend and foe, giving him extremely high mobility on the board. The Backbiter is the most useful when hunting down ranged or weakened enemies hiding in the back rows.
By standing next to an ally, the raider creates a Shield Wall, raising the armor of both himself and his ally by 1. This bonus remains until the Raider is no longer adjacent to the ally.
When multiple Raiders stand next to each other this effect is magnified as they grant each other their own bonus. Four Raiders standing in a square formation will each gain an additional 4 armor.
Onef can be recruited during the start of Chapter 4, before leaving Frostvellr. He claims he was forced to mistreat the Skogr refugees by Ekkill, and offers to take Rook to a supply-cache if he is brought along. If the player stays outside of Frostvellr, he will offer to join you and bring supplies when you leave.
Rook has the option to kill Onef if he tries to sneak into Frostvellr using a supply cart as cover, at the end of Chapter 2.
After departing Sigrholm during Chapter 6, Rook and his allies pass through a forest. Onef takes Rook aside for a quick word, confesses his intended mutiny and attacks him! He then slays Egil, stabs Oddleif and flees into the forest kidnapping Alette, who is forced to slay Onef after the battle for her rescue.
Onef starts with quite low stats, and his Strength is also capped really low. Increasing his Break and Armor is a top priority.
He is one of the most mobile units, besides the two Landsmen of the game, owing to his active ability, Run Through.
Run Through can be used to deal Armor damage to multiple lined-up enemies, or reach a protected low-Armor unit (e.g. an Archer or Slinger) hiding in the enemy back lines.
Recruiting Onef is the only way to recruit his brother-in-law, Ekkill.
Recruiting Onef will lock you out of the Steam achievement, Innocent.
His scripted mutiny is one of the most (negatively) memorable moments of the game, resulting in Egil's unexpected death, if he is still alive!

ch48 - LOTS OF NEWS!! SEE BELOW!!
Mourning the sudden departure of Midna, Link tries to move on with a normal life as he makes his way home, honoring promises and a few final errands as Hero.
"Only the true ruler of the Twili can destroy the Mirror of Twilight," Midna had once said.
Link had tried not to think about Midna's disappearing image on the way back into Hyrule, but it was the only thing that continued to hammer inside his brain. The image of her beautiful figure vanishing into white dust … and her sad, small smile.
Her single tear had been enough to shatter the Mirror of Twilight completely. Zant's magic had fractured it into shards, but as the true ruler of the Twili, Midna had broken it so that its glass had again become nothing more than the sand from which it had been birthed. There was no means of repairing an artifact now scattered invisibly in the sand and washed away by the tides of the wind.
"The Mirror of Twilight is our last potential link…" she had said, and Link knew that the only lasting portal between their worlds had been destroyed.
I will never see her again. Link had come to that nauseous realization reluctantly over the course of the few days it took for the small Hylian group to reach the outskirts of the desert once again, twenty-four riderless horses in tow.
Link had been in a daze for the entire ride, and no one had dared disturb his thoughts. Princess Zelda had no counsel for him and had decided it was best to give Link time to accept the fate of Midna in his own time.
"See you later…."The words played continuously through his mind, and when Link was finally able to shake off its lingering whisper, he could hear the caw of the birds, the trickle of water, and he could smell the misty air surrounding Lake Hylia. The sight of its grand bridge looming ahead brought a sudden memory to him, and he realized that there was something he had left undone.
He pushed to the head of the column to reach Princess Zelda and nodded when she took notice of him. She smiled, pleased to see that he was beginning to recover from the shock of Midna's departure.
"Princess, there's something I need to do. It won't take long," he said, tentatively but with the voice of one used to following his own path.
She realized that he was asking for her permission to leave the procession, and she nodded him on.
He bowed his head, and took up Epona's reins. "I will rejoin you on the other side of the bridge," he promised, and then he clicked at Epona and threw her into a gallop, turning her from the group to move ahead and wind down the hanging cliffs that jutted out from the land surrounding Great Bridge of Hylia.
Link wove through the cliffs until he reached the spread of hills below that rose from the water and made his way across the narrow wooden bridges that connected them. The last few hung too close to the water for Epona to trust, and she tossed her mane and kicked, refusing to take her master any farther. Link leapt down, hushing his old friend until she snorted contended under his soothing palm.
"Wait here, girl," he cooed, and he turned from her side to pass through the narrow bridges that brought him to the shallow waters at the mouth of Lanayru's spring.
Hesitantly, he approached the cavern, for the last time he had been here, Midna had nearly died and he had been turned into a mindless beast. He assured himself that the threat had vanished, recalling the way the usurper king's neck had snapped all life from his body. With that image fresh in his mind, he entered the dark tunnel and wound through its reaches until he came to the shimmering yellow and green lights of the rocks surrounding the crystal clear waters beneath the precipice where he stopped.
A fluttering cloud of dust hung over the spring, and by its faint shimmers and the way its particles seems to sing as they orbited the central mass, Link knew that Lanayru's spirit remained strong and alive within the cavern. He smiled, looking across the features of the cave as its light reflected around it. Link realized he had never noticed the serpent carvings that lined the walls, their necks stretching forward as clear water ran in a constant trickle from their gaping maws.
Link stood there, eyes closed momentarily, trying to stretch back into his memories. He brought forth an image into his mind, but it soon escaped him as he tried to remember. This was the last place he had had it….
When he opened his eyes and looked around, his mind still spinning to find the answers, a bright light glinted in the corner of his eye. His attention snapped to it, and he smiled. He had not sent a prayer to Lanayru, or, at least, he did not think he had. He was not sure. He had never really prayed before.
But there it was, the sword he had lost in his tussle with the King of Shadows, the very sword Rusl had entrusted to him.
Link wove around the sloping shore of the spring until he came to the bottom and bent to one knee. Its steel lay against the shore, half-in and half-out of the water, glistening against the shine of the spirit's glow. He fished for the blade's hilt and brought it out of the water. It had been a long time since he had held this blade, and it felt alien in his grasp as he realized … it had never truly been his to claim.
Gathering himself up, he sent a silent thank you to Lanayru for keeping the blade safe … and for everything it had helped him achieve.
Once at Epona's side again, Link sheathed the Ordonian steel into a bundle on the back of her saddle. He mounted and urged her forward, weaving through the hills and bridges to reach the other side of the lake and climb the cliffs that would return them to the heights of the Great Bridge. When they reached their destination, it was to find that the Hylian entourage had not waited for Link, and he could not blame the soldiers for ushering their princess forward. He did not want to cause any inconvenience for Princess Zelda.
Scanning ahead, he found them making their way through the hills surrounding the densely forested western plain. Pushing Epona into a steady canter, he rejoined their unit within minutes, nodding to Princess Zelda when she noticed him return to the line.
Within the next hour, they reached the great bridge leading into Castle Town. Link could see even being two horses behind her that the princess was both eager and apprehensive to return home, for she had not been in the city for a long time. Even before she had tended to the wounded in Kakariko, she had been imprisoned within the darkened walls of her grand castle for months. Now, to return to it broken and defiled, Link wondered how she would react.
Great sections of the battlement walls had fallen away from Ganondorf's short reign, and Zelda could see that most of the spires and flying buttresses of her majestic home had been completely obliterated. The throne room still stood at its peak, but large sections of the walls and ceiling had collapsed. The sight took Link off guard, and somehow it had transported him back to the last time he had seen the round face of the little Midna gazing up at him with that caring smile.
"See you later…."The words haunted him, and he shook his head to free himself of the way they tangled through his mind.
Zelda took a deep breath as they passed through the tall double doors of the city, bracing herself for the hundreds of faces that would turn to her for guidance, faces distraught under the ashes settling against their homes.
But there were no desperate faces, no crying children … no broken dreams.
When they entered the town, the folk were racing about, helping each other with their things, clearing the rubble from the streets, unloading wagons, repainting the wood of their kiosks, removing the boards across their homes. There were children playing in the streets and laughter echoing against every stone.
As they pulled into the main plaza, music blared strong and loud, a cheerful tune. Masses of people were lined together dancing and celebrating with a toast. Children splashed through the waters of the fountain, and bellowing Gorons banged fists jovially onto their rocky abdomens.
The townspeople caught sight of their returning princess, and as they had not seen her in a long time, many approached her to extend their deepest gratitude and respect. They had long feared for their princess's wellbeing, and Zelda's heart skipped at seeing so many smiling faces staring up at her. A young woman came forward and offered her a bundle of violet flowers, and Zelda accepted them graciously. She wanted to join her people in their festivities, but there was much work to be done. She found comfort as they rejoiced and knew that no matter the hardships they had faced as a people, no matter the fear they had suffered, the Hyrulean people were strong, and the sacrifices that had led to their peace would not be forgotten.
The knights led the way toward the portcullis, and as Link followed he caught sight of a very familiar face. Young Soal. He stood next to his mother as she sipped a drink and laughed alongside a younger girl and portly fellow. Pride filled Soal's eyes as he waved enthusiastically, and Link offered him a short nod and grin. Soal's mother noticed their exchange, noticed the bandages around Link's arm, and she tipped her glass to him to thank him for all the kind words she knew he had offered her son. She knew what he had done, what he had given up and sacrificed to save her son and those like him. She would never be able to repay such an act of valor.
On they went through the broken gates, the ones he had barred before Rusl. The look on Rusl's face had not been one of betrayal, but the pain that had glistened in his eyes when Link had closed him off from the castle still hung in his mind on occasion. Crossing the threshold brought back the memory and the cold feeling in his heart. He could hear the man's desperate cries once more as he had turned away and plunged into the castle.
There were many things Link had done on his journey that he found himself second-guessing now, and this was the one that dangled in his thoughts most prominently. Had he saved lives by cutting them off, or had he prolonged the inevitable? Would they have stood a better chance within the bailey, or had the square provided them the better battleground? Link tossed a glance behind him. Already the stains of war and blood were fading from the rains that had poured that night, but there were some marks that would never truly leave. Link looked to his left hand, and even though he could not see it through his glove, its brand still remained strong.
To console Link, Rusl might have told him that his past actions no longer mattered. The past was the past, and the day had been won. But was a man not to learn from his mistakes as well as his triumphs?
Link woke from his daydreams to find that they had at last come to the courtyard. They halted their advance and looked about. Bodies, both Hylian and foe, still littered the ground, but hundreds of surviving knights were well into their work of clearing the corpses and piling them separately, rows displaying every courageous fallen solider and a heap of the wretched creatures who had plagued their lands.
The general parted from a group of his lieutenants then and marched toward the princess's convoy. He extended a hand to Zelda, and as she dismounted, she asked, "What is the damage?" Out of respect, the mounted Hylians slid down from their horses, as did Link.
Link's smirk was quick and faint at the general's words, glad that the proud man had accepted his will to defend the people of Hyrule.
Before following the general, Zelda turned. At first, the soldiers surrounding her thought perhaps she would give them orders, but they realized that her eyes were solely upon Link. Courteously, they stepped back to offer her room to approach. Link could not slouch due to the nature of his injuries, and at his full height, Zelda had to look up into his eyes. She smiled that in that soft way of hers, and Link grinned in return. She extended a hand and gently placed it over his left arm. It reminded him of the night they had stood on Eldin field, the way her light had steeled his rage when all he had desired was vengeance for Midna's murder.
"Thank you, Link, for your company on the road." She did not have to say it, but she wanted to.
"Of course, Princess," he returned, a little timid in her presence while being surrounded by so many staring eyes.
Zelda's smile remained as she removed her hand and turned to follow the general toward the demolished castle. The knights trailed behind with their horses in tow, leaving Link alone. He had one last task to complete before he left, however, simply as Link, the wrangler from Ordon. It took him a moment to build up his nerve.
"Princess Zelda?" he called, and she and her guards immediately stopped as she turned back to Link. She had risen a few steps up the ruined stairs and front gate of her castle, the general waiting at the threshold.
Link drew the Ordon sword from Epona's bundles, and on instinct the Hylian knights' hands flew to their hilts. None pulled their weapon on Link, however, and he approached them, tentatively at first, then with a resolute stride. He stopped a few meters before Zelda on the cobblestone path below the entrance. He gazed across the glimmering steel of the blade in his hand, weathered and scratched from use.
Finally, he found his words. "A long time ago, when all I knew was the scent of the Wood and the feel of the wind on my face…" --his eyes closed at the memory of the fresh aroma carried on the breeze-- "I was but an ignorant boy who dreamed of adventure." He opened his eyes, looked at the steel of the blade again, saw how he barely recognized the reflection there. "I was asked to journey into Hyrule, but soon my journey became something I had never imagined, and I discovered a world that called me Hero." Looking back on the days he had spent in Hyrule, he finally realized he had barely been able to breathe until now, the weight of his mission had been so great.
Link slowly bent a knee as he worked against the swelling pain still in his chest to lower himself humbly before his princess. On his knees he placed the Ordon sword before him, perfectly parallel and shining in the sun. He looked onto its shimmering surface as if gazing into magical waters that transported him into the past. "This was meant as a gift for the royal family of Hyrule." He did not look up to see that Zelda's smile had turned to surprise, wonder and pleasure at how his fame had not changed any part of his ordinary character.
His words hung on the air in the quiet moment Zelda gazed upon her most loyal subject. Here before her knelt Hyrule's savoir, a boy of humble beginnings whose reputation would follow him even beyond death. Even now, after a grueling journey that had claimed blood and tears, he bowed his head just as any face in the crowd. His ferocity in battle was well known, but his gentle heart and mild nature were his greatest assets.
When Zelda descended the steps of her castle, the general shifted behind her, hiding his grin behind his beard. The knights stepped back, lining the cobblestone to either side, and the princess took slow steps down the aisle toward the kneeling hero.
"But my people are alive and thriving because of its steel," she continued. Her voice tested him.
She shifted her focus from the blade to the man, considering his gift and his answers. Link…. Never had there been a man more humble, truer or more valiant, than he.
"Thank you, Princess--" said Link, before realizing that Zelda had not finished speaking, and he stunted his words.
Link rose at his princess's request, but his puzzlement remained. He understood her words, understood that she thanked him and named him hero, but his uncertainty had come at her intention. But when he rose and looked between her smiling eyes and the weathered features of Ordon's blade, he realized that she was not asking him to become one of her knights. Had that been the case, they both knew he would have refused. In that silent moment, they understood each other entirely. Together, they served Hyrule, their hearts beat as one for the kingdom … but as Zelda was bound by her office, Link's spirit could never be tamed in the same way.
Link bowed and backed away. When he mounted Epona and turned her toward the castle gates, he looked to Zelda one final time before disappearing just as quickly as he had stumbled into her life those months ago.
As Link made his way through the streets of Castle Town, he realized how exposed he had become without the cloak Zelda had given him. Back then the people had still given him notice, but with the hood he had had the ability to shield himself from the fame he still believed he did not deserve. Now, however, even had he the protection of that mantle, he would not have dismissed their every thank you or cheer as he passed. He understood well enough that he had defeated a great evil and given them back their livelihoods, and they needed closure.
He made his way toward Telma's bar. With the town in celebration, Link could only guess that the people were gathered in her establishment and likely keeping her quite busy. When he entered it was to find the place returned to its former glory, looking less like a bloodied triage ward and more like a place to relax, with dozens of soldiers and citizens alike cheering loudly and singing songs of heroes. Once they caught sight of Link, a plump knight lifted his mug of ale and shouted, and the surrounding crowd joined in his cheer. "Come! Have a drink with us!" the large Hylian laughed, and he slid a mug straight into his hand.
Though he would have much preferred water, Link did not want to offend their kindness and took a swig of the ale at the same time the large knight and several others drained a last draught from their mugs. As the soldiers called merrily for a refill, Link, smiling, made his way toward the counter where Telma had been lounging. At the shout, Telma beat away the unfocused stare that had captured her and slapped on a smile. Her face did not truly light up, however, until she approached the crowd and caught sight of Link.
"Link, honey, how are you?" she bellowed.
"Good to see you up and walking about," said Telma, and he sensed that while she had sat quietly her thoughts had been centered on him. "Things 'round here are finally getting back to normal. And," she said, looping her arm through his left, as if to take him into confidence, "the soldiers are finally getting that old coot to pay up on his tab!" She nodded to the corner, where the short Doctor Borville stood cleaning off a table with a rather loathsome expression on his wrinkled face. Telma winked at Link and took the mug of ale from his hand, trading it with a hot cup of milk. This made him smile; this motherly woman knew exactly how to make him feel at home.
As Link took a grateful sip of his new drink, Telma nodded him toward the back room. "Shad and Ashei are in the other room, if you wanna say hello." Link could already hear Shad talking excitedly about something inside.
Back to normal. Link sighed and took a sip, silently toasting. His lips lingered at the rim of his mug, however, as his grin faded. Normal….
Everyone was getting back to their lives, making repairs and plans, continuing on. They had it all figured out. The Ordonians, the Gorons, the Twili, the Hylians…. They had all gone home, returned to their routines. Yet, what was Link to do now? The question had plagued him constantly since beginning the trek across Hyrule to see his friends home, and he still had no answer. Link had become so accustomed to the mindset of his missions, the people to save and the artifacts to collect, that he was not entirely sure what he was supposed to do now that it was all over. Certainly, he could go back to Ordon, continue where he left off like everyone else, but….
But he could not go back to the way things were … because while everyone else's lives had been interrupted by the chaos, the call to arms had been Link's awakening, had been the event that had begun his life. How was he to continue something that had ended as abruptly as it had begun?
Should he move on? Explore the lands beyond Hyrule as Rusl had once suggested? See the world? Link's dream had been to see Hyrule at peace, and now he had achieved that goal. What was it one did when one realized an impossible dream? Did one simply return to all that was familiar? Or was his answer past the horizon?
Leaning against the bar, Link felt a nudge at his shoulder. Turning, he saw Telma's long-haired cat. Link stroked its head and it purred into his palm. It sniffed the air, and Link realized that it smelled his milk. He smiled and offered the mug to the animal, setting it down on the counter. As it poked its head inside and lapped up the fresh milk, Link turned back to the other room.
He made his decision, but it only prolonged his inevitable choice. There were still loose ends for Link to bind, and here was as good a place as any to start. He had once promised to tell Shad of the time he had disappeared from Kakariko. With the Dominion Rod gone, he could not show Shad the wonders of the great city in the sky, but there was another place he thought might interest the young scholar just as thoroughly.
And it was a place that beckoned him.
When Link entered the small room, Shad greeted him with a wide smile, "Link, ole boy! How were your travels? I hear the … Twili--yes, that's it--returned home. Interesting people. Not very talkative. I would have loved to have seen this Twilight Realm, studied their culture. Tell me, is it true in their realm there is no sun? Oh, I wonder how their climate works, their seasons…. Hmm, fascinating." As he spoke, Shad had gone from standing to greet Link to leaning against his chair and pondering to himself. Link looked to Ashei--still in full armor--who sat quietly eating a large meal, and her blank expression did not exactly make it appear she had been enjoying her conversation with Shad.
"They likely would have answered your questions if you had shut up long enough for them to even try," came her curt reply, still looking at her food.
Link stifled his laugh at their banter. It was not that he thought their constant arguing funny--although, that was part of it. He simply found comfort knowing that the scars of the war had not marked them, had not taken away the things that made them who they were.
The journey had been exactly what Link had needed. The road, the open air. And Shad was the perfect travel companion, for with their constant discussion, Link had no time to think, no time for his thoughts to stray to Midna and how much he missed her. They spoke of the Oocca, of the wonders of Celestia, and Link found the conversation stimulating, at last sharing a tale of his adventure, opening up to someone about the things he had witnessed and sharing the knowledge he had learned.
Ashei, who had volunteered to come only to provide additional security, followed behind them at a distance with an extra horse in tow that carried several bundles and satchels. Naturally, she did not seem interested in their topic of conversation, taking solace instead in her surroundings, but Link occasionally caught her gaze shifting toward them. What was on her mind, however, he could not fathom. Her thoughts and feelings were those not easily decipherable, and he had given up a long time ago.
Looking back at their fourth horse, bound with their luggage, Link thought of Auru. They had encountered him in the square when making their preparations and extended an invitation to him. He had refused, of course, due to the work still to complete in returning the castle and the town to its former glory. Auru had long since retired from the service of the royal family, but as one of the most learned men in all of Hyrule, who better to help rebuild and see that the mistakes of the past were not repeated? Link suspected that the princess might even extend him the honor of joining her council of advisors or perhaps become her personal advisor. He was not exactly sure how the monarchy worked having lived in Ordon all his life.
When they crossed the border into Faron Woods, Link heard Shad gasp at the beauty of the forest, which made Link feel a certain pride in having hailed from such a province. Although, a string of sneezes from Shad momentarily shattered the scholar's wonderment. He wiped his nose on a handkerchief and returned it to his shirt pocket. He told Link how he had never visited the woods south of Hyrule. His expeditions had always taken him to dry places like the mountains or areas like Lake Hylia where the air was clear. The pollen dancing around them here made the air smell sweeter, and while the adventurer in Shad delighted in the new sensation, his body did not share the same enjoyment.
At that, Shad began to inquire into life in the woods, and Link shared with him what it had been like to grow up in an isolated, beautiful world where he had been completely at peace. He told him a funny story of how Link's first hunting lesson had nearly ended with an arrow in Rusl's foot and admitted how, when he had grown older, he had sometimes spent days in the woods climbing through the trees and fishing in its springs. Shad could see the appeal of his lifestyle but jokingly admitted that he did not think he could survive for long without a good book and a hot bath.
Their road continued like this, easy and alive with conversation, as they made their way deeper and deeper still into the forest. As Link and Shad shared stories, they occasionally tried to pry a comment or two from Ashei, to which she either ignored or urged them to keep their eyes on the road. The few times she did speak out was to offer a survival tip or to reprimand Shad that his mindset about the history of Hyrule was too idealistic and childish.
It took them some time before they reached the deep woods where the giants slept, but the Master Sword was beckoning him, guiding him, and he never lost his way. They stopped at the cliff face where Link remembered coming to Talo's rescue so very long ago, and Shad marveled at the sight of the colossal trees and their canopies as massive as the sky. Ashei even seemed impressed by the sight and brought her horse up alongside Shad to first look across the giants of the wood and then downward into the depths of the canyons below.
They made camp there for the night, and as Shad sat and sketched the landscape in one of the many journals he had brought, Link noticed that Ashei had wondered from the camp to stand at the edge of the cliff. Gathering himself up from the fire, he tentatively approached her. He already knew that she would sense his presence, and when she did not demand his leave, he stepped up alongside her. Her arms were crossed as she looked into the wood, her expression deep.
For a long time, neither spoke, watching the shadows from the moon play against the bark as the leaves rustled musically in the breeze. The fireflies sparkled in the darkness and the insects rattled and buzzed.
"Oh… I…." Link should have guessed as much with the way she spoke of him, but the manner in which she had confirmed this had caught his tongue.
"You don't need to say anything. You never knew him," she said, and though it sounded like a reprimand, he knew she was only comforting him because she was already at peace with it.
"Then he was a good teacher," she said, and Link looked her way. Though she praised Rusl through this compliment, it also served another purpose, and when she smiled, Link understood that she had finally acknowledged his skill. Voicing her acceptance through direct words was not her way; they both knew this. She was too proud.
Seeing Ashei grin was a little strange, and a smirk cracked through Link's lips, making the corner of his mouth twitch. Her smile was one thing he thought he would never see during the course of his journey.
Back to normal, he had once thought, but now he realized the truth. There is no going back.
With that, Link finally understood what bothered her so much about Shad. He lived in the past, lived off the energy of civilizations that had come before, reveled in the discovery of something ancient. Ashei, however, preferred a life at its base value, a life in the present, a life lived moment to moment. He could understand both points of view.
Link remembered the Shade, the many encounters he had had with the soul of the hero of a time long since gone, and he came to his own conclusion.
"Without the past, we can't understand who we are," said Link. "Sometimes it's painful and sometimes it's not … so I think we just have to accept it and live with it. It lives in us." It had taken him a long time to accept it, but he knew that unless by some miracle … he would likely never meet his parents. Rusl was his father, and Ordona his mother.
"Neither did I," retorted Link, which made her smile reappear.
Link's laugh echoed through the trees, and for the rest of the night he wondered just how such a match might end.
Traversing through the dense paths of the deep forest the next day would have proved the end to any man with its twisting roads as the leaves molded the sun's rays into an eerie blue light. Link's first experience through these woods had been a dance in darkness, and even during his trek with Rusl, he would have gotten lost had it not been for the older man. Now, however, instinct guided Link. He heard Shad's intermittent doubt in his direction, swearing that he had seen this tree or that rock before; Ashei did not speak, but her expression was filled with caution. Link's only comfort to them was his continued silence as he guided, listening to the wind in the trees and the lingering hum in his soul that he knew neither could hear.
When the trees became sparser and opened up into a small grove, he heard Shad gasp behind him. As they continued into the grove, Link looked upon the area with a new eye. Like so many other places, he had never had a moment to spend in awe of the beauty surrounding him. It was clear that there had been a cathedral-like structure here in the past, but the stones were now scattered and whole walls had tumbled, and the stones were now so moss-covered, weeds sprouting through the cracks, that the distinction between life and stone was near impossible to gauge.
They urged their horses through the break in the walls and came to rest within what remained of the ancient temple's central chamber. It was all familiar to Link. To the right lay the ruined staircases leading up to a balcony, and to his left were the statues that guarded the entrance to the chamber that once housed a legendary treasure.
Link gazed up at the door that had served as a link to the past and remembered how the temple had once looked compared to its current state. He wondered what the old hero had thought of the sight, the wonder of the temple, if he had stopped to take in its remarkable beauty or if he had entered in haste to claim his birthright.
With that, Link dismounted and slowly stepped toward the guardians. When he crossed over the royal crest painted on the ground, he stopped. Suddenly, he felt like a young, innocent boy again with the thirst for strength, his blood churning with the desire to be the hero he needed to be. It was an empowering feeling, and Link lost himself in it for a moment until he realized that perhaps the spirit of the old hero remained alive within the magic of the very stones surrounding him.
"The Temple of Time," the green-clad youth confirmed immediately. As they roamed behind him, Link stood ever still, eyes glued to the door before him. The Master Sword hummed through his bones, summoning him to his last act as Hero. Its labors were complete, and both sword and hero were to be put to rest once more.
Without another word, Link moved away from them to approach the entrance to the stairway. Shad noticed and went to follow him, but Ashei stopped him with a hand on his shoulder. She shook her head, and though disappointed, Shad understood.
Link passed the archway, and stepped through the ruined remains of what looked like a door that had once blocked entry to the stairs. Stepping across the threshold was like stepping through a door of time itself, for in his mind he was immediately returned to the moments he had first stepped through the passage, in the form of a cursed beast desperate for the feel of light. His steps came slow as he drifted through memories and a whirl of sensations that felt like another soul entirely.
As he took the last step into the chamber within, he stopped, staring at the pedestal at the center. He remembered the glowing light that had saved him, the feeling of a thousand waves rushing through him and cleansing his soul. He approached the pedestal and as he stood before it, gazing at its empty niche, he reached back.
The chime of the Master Sword hummed as he unsheathed it and held it firm in his hand. This blade had been the light of Hyrule's new dawn and the savior of thousands. It had been the quiet guardian, watching, waiting, resting until the time came for a hero to pull it from its slumber. It never whined, never doubted, never surrendered. The Master Sword was the true sword, the only sword, the first sword, and he could feel in its leather binding and see in its reflection its ancient age. Many stories told of heroes and legends, and this blade had been the mother of them all. Link was not the first to hold this blade, nor, he suspected, might he be the last, but his time with the sword had ended. He had become part of its legend, become one of its honored heroes, but it was time to let it rest once more.
Link plunged the sword into the pedestal, and the gleam of its blade brightened as its chime reverberated with a ring strong enough to shatter glass. Its light seemed to unearth a renewed vigor to the features of the room and the sky above. He felt the chime thunder through the veins of the soil beneath as its piercing echo diminished. Its shimmer, however, never faded as it fell dormant, for even in its slumber the Master Sword watched … and waited.


However, he thinks Southgate's commitment to trusting youth and attempts to mould a more technically gifted side has changed England since his last appearance over two years ago.
"We have gone in a different direction. We have added a lot of youth to the squad, we are all developing from a young age, developing into big players.
"We have all got the same goal, we all want to achieve success for England and we are getting close to that.
Barkley earned his recall on the back of a strong start to the campaign with Chelsea after an injury-ravaged first season at Stamford Bridge that cost him the chance to go to the World Cup.
However, while others like Mount, on loan at second division Derby County from Chelsea, and Borussia's Dortmund's Sancho, have been rewarded for shunning the glamour of the Premier League's top six to go elsewhere and play regularly, Barkley believes his decision to stay at Chelsea over the summer has been vindicated.
"I made the move because I believe in my ability and I believed no matter what I would eventually kick on at Chelsea.
"I joined with a long term injury. I came through a difficult spell.


Conservative Republicans in the Virginia Senate yesterday achieved a significant victory in their caucus leadership elections at the General Assembly Building in Richmond with the election of Senators Steve Newman (Lynchburg, 23rd district) as caucus chairman and Mark Obenshain (Harrisonburg, 26th district) as one of two whips. With the caucus now made up of eight members (out of 19) with legitimate conservative credentials; and six "moderates" either retiring, or who lost renomination in primaries or re-election November 6; and a motivated grassroots movement urging senators to make a leadership change, it was at least what conservatives deserved.
Newman had been lining up support for a run for Republican leader against current leader Senator Walter Stosch (Henrico, 12th district), but when Stosch agreed to step aside in what appears to be a hard-worked compromise, Newman and Obenshain instead were elected to their new posts. Senator Tommy Norment (James City, 3rd district) was elected Republican leader, while Senators Ken Stolle (Virginia Beach, 8th district) and Frank Wagner Virginia Beach, district 7) were elected leader pro tempore (deputy leader) and whip, respectively. Stosch will have an ex-officio role in a new position, leader emeritus.
While Norment and Stolle are remnants of the moderate "Gang of Five," there now are two conservatives and a fresh face in five of the leadership positions in the Republican caucus. Even Norment, philosophically similar to Stosch but seen as more partisan, told the media that he was sorry to disappoint them that peace had come to the caucus. Fortified conservative numbers will do that. So, as predicted, a Republican minority, but a more conservative caucus. It's only a start, but already it can be seen as progress.

The holiday season is over, which means the wedding-planning season has officially begun. If you were one of the countless couples that got engaged over the winter holidays, you have probably already picked up a few bridal magazines, scoped out a venue, and asked your closest friends to be in the wedding party – but have you given any thought to your wedding budget?
This is an exciting time in your lives, but if you get caught up in the anticipation of the big day without a financial plan you can risk adding the stress of excessive debt to your marriage. Before you begin planning a day filled with pomp, circumstance and extravagant expenses, sit down together and discuss the type of wedding you would like to have and how you are going to pay for it.
It's becoming more common for the bride and groom to either share in the cost of their wedding with parents or pay for the entire event themselves. Once you understand how you will be paying for your wedding, begin saving about 20 per cent of your combined monthly income to cover your portion of the wedding costs.
What is important to the two of you? Do you want an elaborate gown, gourmet food, an open bar, designer flowers or a live band? Sit down together and prioritize the things that are most important to the two of you. Creating a small list of wedding "must haves" and a list of "nice to haves" will help you plan the day of your dreams while keeping costs down.
The last thing you want is to start your married life together buried in a pile of debt. This is why budgeting is the best place for couples to start when planning their wedding. Include the estimated costs of your wedding day "must haves" and your "nice-to-haves". If the total is more than you can afford, cut back on the expenses that are not that important to the two of you. Use this work sheet to list all of your potential costs.
The easiest and most efficient way to reduce your wedding cost is to reduce the number of your guests. Do you really need to include Uncle John, who is the 2nd cousin of your mother that you last saw 12 years ago? Consider limiting the guest list to 100 instead of 150 to save money on food, drink, favours and stationary. Limit the number of attendants in the wedding party. Opt for a smaller wedding party with only a maid-of-honour and a best man. Ask other important friends and relatives to be involved in the day by making a speech, taking photos or baking your cake.
April to September is peak wedding season. In order to get more out of you budget, consider an off-season wedding date. Wedding vendors are not as busy in the late fall and winter months, which means you have more room to negotiate price and get discounted rates.
When it comes to planning your special day, there are no rules that say you must follow tradition. Instead of spending a fortune on stationary for invitations, consider sending out an electronic save-the-date or eliminate reply cards entirely by asking guests to RSVP via email. Go with simple and affordable wedding bands and upgrade to gold on your 5th anniversary, or shop for your gown online to save between 30 to 80 per cent on the dress you will only wear once.
Adding the stress of excessive debt to a new relationship is a risky proposition – the first year of marriage is hard enough. By following these tips and coming up with your own creative ways to cut the cost of your wedding day you will be able to save money, avoid debt and still enjoy every moment of your special day.
Start your marriage off on the right financial foot by downloading a copy of The Wedding Planner. Remember, it's your special day – 10 years from now you want to look back on fond memories, not an over-the-top celebration you are still trying to pay off.

Why Our Customers Love Coming Back to D&B Tailors?
In today's post, we'd like to share with you many reasons why our customers love coming back to D&B Tailors. We thought the perfect way to do it would be letting our longtime clients (and now friends!) tell you what they think. We asked 4 customers to share their thoughts, experience and a little bit more on a special relationship they have with our Master Designer, Gabe D'Annunzio, and the rest of the D&B Tailors family.
"I met Gabe when I was about 12 or 13 years old. My dad used to come in here and it was really love at first sight. My dad thought the world of him as did I. (…) When I got out in the business, I first started having Gabe make my shirts because I was a fit guy, and I was athletic. It was hard to get shirts off the rack. He took good care of me and then when I got to my late 20s, Gabe began to make all my clothes, all my pants, my shirts, my suits. We've just had this lifelong relationship, I've known him over 43 – 44 years.
The one thing about Gabe I'd say is that he just puts so much love and passion into his clothing. It's not only the style and the fabric and the tailoring. You can feel that vibe, you can feel the love, and I think that's his big differentiator.
People give me compliments because my clothes look well-fitted, it's beautiful fabric, and I think more importantly, it reflects who I am. It reflects a positiveness to the world, a good outlook, respect for people. I like to dress elegantly, not ostentatiously, and so I think that's a good balance for me and people feel that, too. I think it's not only the physical compliments that they give me. It also reflects a great outlook on life in a sense of positiveness and openness and that's what I'm trying to exhume.
Billy Olson and Gabe D'Annunzio at the Filitalia Gala and D&B Tailors' 50th business anniversary (see the post here).
To experience buying a suit from Gabe is just wonderful. Even when I lived in London, I would have Gabe send me the fabrics. Then when I came back over, I would go through, pick out the fabric and we made the suit. It's a creative process. We choose, we decide, he puts it together and we make modifications. It's an iterative process and at the end, you have this wonderful product that's bigger than a suit. It does not only fit you, but also reflects your lifestyle, where you are, what you want to do. It's interesting when I look at the suits we made in my twenties and thirties to what they are now. We evolved with the times, yet we've never really done it for fashion.
It's about style, a distinctive style. Gabe captures your style and watches you evolve. He continues to capture your style so it's not only a physical experience. It's a great emotional experience to be with Gabe, and go through that process.

Q: How can i add sparkline to kendo grid after the loading process? Guys I wanted to know the ways of adding sparkline to grid after the loading,I myself used the change event but the problem is after clicking on the grid ,sparkline appears!
For clarification ,I've added a video regarding my project
http://jsfiddle.net/psot98/AxMHY/3/embedded/result/
Video
event change grid
      change: function (e) {
                $(".sparkline").kendoSparkline({

                    type: "area",

                    series: [{
                        name: "World",
                        data: [15.7, 16.7, 20, 23.5, 26.6, 24.8, 24.1, 20.1, 14.1, 8.6, 2.5, 3.5],

                    }, {
                        name: 'New York',
                        data: [0.7, 0.8, 5.7, 11.3, 17.0, 22.0, 24.8, 24.1, 20.1, 14.1, 8.6, 2.5],

                    }],

                });
            }

A: What about : http://jsfiddle.net/vojtiik/AxMHY/4/embedded/result/
You can use DataBound event, so once data is loaded and bound - you show your fancy charts. http://docs.kendoui.com/api/web/grid#events-dataBound
dataBound : function (e) {
                  $(".sparkline").kendoSparkline({
                      type: "area",
                      series: [{
                          name: "World",

                      }, {
                          name: 'New York',
                          data: [0.7, 0.8, 5.7, 11.3, 17.0, 22.0, 24.8, 24.1, 20.1, 4.1, 8.6, 2.5],
       }],

                  });
              }

A: try this:
$.fn.kendoSparkline = function(options){
    // if the grid is not prepared just keep waiting
    if($(this).find('.k-grid-header').length == 0){
        setTimeout(function(){
            $(this).lockColumn(count);
        },50);
        return;
    }
    // kendoSparkline logic
}

$('#kendoGrid').kendoGrid({...});
$(".sparkline").kendoSparkline({...});

This method will check if the grid is loaded, and will keep waiting util it's loaded.
