Back in March I described problems compiling and installing new applications onto Linux and suggested that until this problem is solved, Linux will not take over the desktop; see On Linux. But in the last few weeks a colleague has introduced me to Ubuntu. It's a lovely distribution which feels clean, stable and nicely integrated. However, the real revelation of Ubuntu is the online package system, which means that finding and installing new applications is unbelievably straightforward. Of course this system doesn't work for any Linux application at all, just the ones (actually many) that have been placed in the Ubuntu package server, but it's clearly the way to go.
I strongly recommend Ubuntu, and commend the good people supporting this distribution who really do appear to live up to the ideals implied by the word "Ubuntu".


Preparing for the future of the Smart Safe.
Vaultek has utilized tech company Two Six Labs research to take security to a new level on their Vaultek VT series line of safes.
On October 6th, Vaultek reviewed an open case study with Two Six Labs ( the company has worked with DARPA, ARL, and the Department of Homeland security ) to help promote a safer future for their VT line of safes.
Through the team at Two Six Labs, we discovered several ways to protect our safes from future hacks, and promote a healthier future for all upcoming Vaultek Wireless access products.
As a company dedicated to creating smart safe products, we want it to be known we work alongside leading companies in the smart tech world to stay on top of any and all possible attacks, hacks, or threats.
At Vaultek we will keep pushing the envelope, and promise to always make our products the safe choice.
Our hope with all of our products, is to always keep learning and growing. We know that in this new smart tech world, there will always be the possibilities of vulnerabilities in any smart device. So we make it our mission to partner and grow with those who are the best in their field or area.
As a collective we can do anything. When our customers purchase a Vaultek safe, they expect us to follow through with any and all problems that might arise with this ever growing industry. So That's what we've set out to do. Our safes will always be moving towards a better, and safer tomorrow.
We hope you will join with us on this mission, and be apart of the Vaultek family.

Lottery is biggest contributor to Covid support after Government
The National Lottery gave £1.2billion to the Covid effort over the past year
Neil ShawNetwork Content Editor
National Lottery operator Camelot revealed sales jumped nearly 6% in the past year as bored households turned to lottery tickets, scratchcards and online games in record numbers.
The company said as a result of the high uptake, donations to good causes hit £1.9 billion, including £1.2 billion in Covid-19 support, making the lottery the biggest single financial contributor to the pandemic relief effort outside of the Government.
In the year to the end of March revenues hit £8.37 billion – up £468.8 million on the same period a year earlier, including £4.7 billion through its main Lotto draws.
Camelot's EuroMillions sales also grew marginally, although there were falling ticket sales in some partner countries, the company added.
Chief executive Nigel Railton explained that lottery operators in Europe were hit hard but Camelot boosted sales through improving relations with retailers, introducing new games and boosting investment in its online platforms.

He said: "It could have been very different had we not intervened, doing the right thing at the right time.
"If we look across to other lotteries in Europe, France was down about 12%, Spain turned off their retail channel for a considerable period and their sales were down significantly too. Italy was also hit hard."
With much of the high street shut during large swathes of the year, physical scratchcard sales were down – especially in the first half of the year – although this was offset by strong growth in their sales online, hitting total sales in the Instants category of £3.7 billion.
Around 2.7 million extra digital players registered online with the average weekly spend up less than 3%, with fewer than two online instant games played per person per week on average, the company said.
As a result of the boosts in sales, a record £4.85 billion was handed out in prizes – up £349.7 million on a year earlier, with 389 millionaires created.
The pandemic hit total in-store sales – including traditional lottery tickets, which fell from £5.45 billion to £4.86 billion in the past year.
By the half year it was down 18.9% due to the lockdowns, although they recovered in the second half and since the end of March retail sales are nearly back to pre-pandemic levels.
But overall online sales helped offset the fall, with £3.51 billion handed over via the National Lottery's website – up 42.8% on a year ago.
As a result, bosses have approved an accelerated investment plan for the digital channel to ensure additional traffic could be accommodated.

Within digital, mobile sales grew by £876.4 million to an all-time high of £2.48 billion, primarily through the National Lottery apps.
Mr Railton said the push in online would go hand-in-hand with increasing work with high street retailers and signing up new customers – including recent deals with Iceland and Aldi.
He said: "Our philosophy is that we encourage people to play on both online and in stores. We've got 45,000 retailers and they will continue to be the backbone of the National Lottery in the future.
"Retail will remain at the heart of the National Lottery because it's really important to the local community."
Online gaming in the UK has faced heavy scrutiny in the past year, with the Gambling Commission carrying out a review into online casinos following a huge spike in use during the pandemic.
The regulator is particularly concerned about high speed casino games where customers can spend huge amounts in very short spaces of time.
But Mr Railton said Camelot has no plans to move into faster games. He added: "The Gambling Commission has to do its piece of work and we will look at it with interest.
"The National Lottery is distinct from gambling… it's the connection with good causes that really differentiates the National Lottery from gambling completely."

Microsoft launches new Lumias, Surface Pro 4, and the Surface Book laptop
Post author By Roland Banks
8 Comments on Microsoft launches new Lumias, Surface Pro 4, and the Surface Book laptop
Yesterday, Microsoft held its big event at which it released new Lumia smartphones (the 950 and the 950XL), as well as a long-awaited update to its Surface Pro 3, aptly called the Surface Pro 4. There was also a new fitness band called the Band 2, but the biggest surprise was perhaps the company's new laptop – the Surface Book.
The Surface Pro is starting to finally gain some traction, helping Microsoft fly past more than $800 million in revenue in the past year, and it's refined and honed the concept with its latest model. Thinner, lighter, more powerful (50% more powerful than a MacBook Air, it was claimed), along with a new Surface Pen that attaches magnetically to the side. It was all fairly impressive if you're interested in Windows laptop/tablet hybrids, and the reception has generally been positive. It's not a device that I'd ever consider (next purchase, this year's updated MacBook Pro i7 with 16 GB of RAM and Intel Skylake CPUs), but for many people it could be the laptop/tablet replacement they're looking for.
Microsoft's Surface Pro 4
More of a surprise at yesterday's event however was the aforementioned Surface Book. Aside from the name being ever so slightly reminiscent of a MacBook, it does feel like Microsoft is shooting for the Apple demographic here, at least judging by the price. The machine itself is a premium quality (magnesium?) device with a proper keyboard and a hi-res screen (coined PixelSense) that also accepts pen and touch input. Microsoft has also beefed up the trackpad with a larger glass covered model and 5-point multi-touch capability. Some say it's now on a par with Apple's, which are generally considered the best you can get.
The specs are also impressive – with decent RAM and storage configurations. However, the most unusual thing about the Surface Book is the hinge mechanism, which allows the screen to detach for use as a tablet. The device's graphics chip is in the base, which means it's less powerful in tablet mode but can still be used for the majority of tablet-oriented tasks that users might want. Connecting the screen back to the keyboard allows the full GPU power to be harnessed, though the hinge, while clever, looks rather unsightly and even prevents the lid from closing fully flat. Whether that will put of consumers remains to be seen, but it's likely that considering the Surface Book's price (at least $2,500 for one of the more high end models) it'll be the Microsoft faithful (and enterprise users) who go all in and buy one.
Microsoft's Lumia 950 and 950 XL
Microsoft said it's not trying to be a hardware company, but it's certainly encroaching on Apple's territory slightly with the Surface Book. At the end of the day though it still runs Windows, and for many (including myself) that's enough of a deal breaker for such serious money.

stevebarker66says:
It's disappointing to note the biased journalism in this piecThe rest of the tech world seems to have plenty of praise for the new Surface models but Mobile Industry Review take an increasingly cynical Apple-centric view
It's disappointing to watch Mobile Industry Review take a cynical Apple-centric view on these devices whilst the wider tech press seem genuinely impressed.
Roland almost begrudgingly acknowledges their specs and performance but sneeringly points out he will not be buying one.
I really don't care what Roland buys, but using his personal choice to weakly underline his journalistic stance is very poor journalism indeed.
Of course there are comparisons with Apple products, but when Apple introduced the iPad Pro the other week did Roland suggest it was a response to Microsoft' Surface..?
Roland doesn't even mention the smartphones at all (the most 'Mobile" device he could've "Review"-ed); he doesn't report that they undercut similar-specced iPhones considerably or offer advanced features such as the Continuum dock, but I suppose that would be at odd with his closing paragraph:
Where Roland suggests that "for many" Windows itself is the deal breaker. Need we remind Roland that Windows outsells Mac massively?
Of course, I've noticed all this because I'm a disgruntled ex-Nokia (now Microsoft) Fanboy, so all the outraged Apple users can now calm down and go back to rubbing their… 6s's
But the truth remains:
The editorial stance of Mobile Industry Review is increasingly out of step with the wider tech world.
What you see above is Roland's view and nowhere have I specified that he must ensure his writing or perspective is in line with the wider tech world.
The huge challenge for Microsoft is relevance in an Apple centric world. I will write my view shortly. In the meantime why don't you consider writing your analysis for us to publish here Steve?
Thanks for taking the time to reply, Ewan.
I follow a lot of media that is antipathetic to Windows & Windows Mobile because I value the counterpoint to my own (admittedly limited) views.
From the 'nobody cares about Windows Phone' standpoint of Messrs Whatley & Constantinescu to you and and Ben mercilessly torturing the erudite Blandford on the 361 podcast, it is important to temper our enthusiasm for any platform or brand.
Sometimes that is painful listening, but that is why we follow and love you all (including Roland, who I know produces & researches a lot for you)
Whilst I thank you for your generous offer, if we are to write our own reviews, what is the point of following MIR?
I look to you and other media for the wider Mobile Industry (re)View because I trust your BRAND. I certainly don't want MIR to follow the industry vox pop and I do hope to be better challenged with unbiased, well-reasoned criticism here in the future.
We routinely include perspectives from others Steve, so I think it would be really valuable.
I've got an idea: I'll ask the marketplace to give us some perspective that we can publish. I could see myself swapping back to Windows as a primary platform thanks to the work Microsoft have been doing.
The depressing reality is how the great unwashed in the enterprise marketplace simply aren't even looking at Windows.
OK, Ewan – you're on!
I'll get something together based on my experience of Windows 10 Mobile so far against the backdrop of the new Lumia 950's
Bring it on. Mail it to me at em at mobileindustryreview.com when you are ready.
Roland Bankssays:
well it's good to know that I've stirred up a bit of debate. For the record, I do actually use a Windows PC as my main work computer for software development, and for that (for what I do certainly) I prefer Windows to Apple. As far as Windows Phones go, I'll try and be a bit more open to the platform 🙂


Hi everyone, Chris is here, but not crisis :) We worked very hard last month and I am happy to say that as a result insexes become better again. There are still dozen interesting tasks in our todo list, and we are moving forward gradually, step by step. That is why not everything here is super mega fine today. But we are in process. So, just keep watching over.
I've received several emails with questions about our model indexes from different people... Some of them were asking for complete list of girls from our exclusive section; others, how they could edit existing model profiles. I replied to all of your emails. And, thanks to your letters, I decided to write down and publish the current status and future plans about our model indexes.
You know that model indexes are one of the important part of insexes. Actually, this part formed the basis of insexes at the very beginning. Often one girl is modeling for different photographers and appears on various sites under sundry screen names. And if you are a true fan or zealous collector of specific girl you'd like to get all available material with her. That's why we need model indexes. Now we have a fourth iteration, but it is going to be rethought.
There were just few requirements for model profile: show profile picture, links to the related galleries and some additional information. But after first iteration, it became clear that we need to add more features like model aliases and rating. Same situation repeated with each new iteration. The published version does not hold water. It is true. Despite the fact that model profiles should be completely redesigned, we finally have got a clear vision how. Ultimate version of model profiles is under development. Release date is undefined yet.
We are designing several model profile types including but not limited to orphan, regular, exclusive and personal. But these types are rather nominal. Exclusive profiles will be edited solely by us, personal profiles will be edited by respected model, while other kinds of profiles could be edited by all or privileged users. Different profiles of the same girl could be linked. In this regard, there are many arising problems that we still have to solve.
There are no pressing need to update current model index for our exclusive sets before we release the renewed one. There were not so much exclusive sets published now, that is why it is reasonable to invest our time in development. However, currently ruined section is additional motivation for us to accomplish this task as soon as possible.
That's probably all for today. And, again, thank you for your interest in our project. Remember, that your feedback is not only welcomed, your feedback really helps us to make insexes. Stay tuned!

Electric Daisy Carnival: From "Sin" to "Spin" City!
After 22 years as an organization, it's only appropriate that Rock the Vote (RTV) keep track of what today's youth are rockin' out to, as well as what concerts are drawing in these young masses. Rock the Vote reaches young people by going to where they are. And really, there's no better way to register youth to vote and engage them face-to-face than by going to shows with them. Staying true to this notion, Rock the Vote and Electric Dance Music (EDM) giant Insomniac Productions have created Spin the Vote (STV): a national voter registration program for the ever-growing EDM community. Spin the Vote will register voters at Insomniac festivals and online in 2012.
The program has already hunkered down and registered tons of young voters at a slew of Insomniac shows such as, Nocturnal Wonderland in Austin and Electric Daisy Carnival New York. Not to mention the biggest dance party in America – Electric Daisy Carnival (EDC) Las Vegas.
At EDC Las Vegas, Spin the Vote had an awesome army of volunteers who delved into the sea of sparkles and neon each night at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. With clipboards in hand, our Spin the Vote volunteers were ready to give every festival-goer a chance to vote in 2012. By the time the last beat dropped, we had registered hundreds of EDM fans from Alaska to Alabama.
And don't worry – our team also took part in the colorful chaos. They ripped, cut and fringed their Spin the Vote tees into EDC-worthy wear, rocked their own fun accessories, and added some of our booth's special patriotic props – how can you pass up an Uncle Sam hat or a red, white and blue garter?!
The Spin the Vote Lounge was the perfect place to meet up with friends, chill on comfy couches, and take in the amazing stream of flair flowing between the Cosmic Meadow and Neon Garden stages. We had a great view of Steve Aoki "crowd rafting" during super party boy Afrojack's set on Friday night.
Speaking of Diplo, we caught up with him backstage where he had some powerful words for EDM fans and the importance of Spin the Vote. We also had an amazing chat with Swedish DJs Rebecca & Fiona. Plus, their buddy Kaskade dropped by to sign a poster (who wants it?!) and gave his own STV shout-out. We even brought Russian trance master Arty into the mix!
Want to party? Choose a political party by registering to vote, SpintheVote.org.
For everyone at EDC Las Vegas who went #HAM or #YOLO or whatever acronym you're using these days, we hope you saw our lit-up STV truck, had a chance to check out the booth or had a nice chat with one of our trusty volunteers. If not, you can still register to vote online at SpintheVote.org. So, what are you waiting for? Give the EDM community a voice and fight for your right to dance!
We've got a ton more Spin the Vote events planned, so look out for updates. You can also check out Rock the Vote's On the Road page for other volunteer opportunities. Yup, we are blowing this thing up, so don't miss out. Hope to see you crazy kids at the next EDM throw down!

Wetlands International South-Asia
We safeguard and restore wetlands for people and nature
Home » About Us » Our History
Wetlands International South Asia was established in 1996, with an office in New Delhi, India as a part of Wetlands International network to promote conservation and sustainable development of wetlands in South Asia region. Wetlands International established its global headquarters in Netherlands in 1996. The predecessor organizations of Wetlands International have worked for wetland conservation since 1937.
Integrating wetlands into water management was the initial focus of work in South Asia, implemented in the form of long-term projects at two major Ramsar sites of India, Loktak Lake (Manipur) and Chilika (Odisha). The work has gradually expanded to cover areas of management planning, wetland inventory and assessment, ecosystem services evaluation, conservation of critical habitats, capacity development, communication and outreach and policy formulation support.
In 2005, Wetlands International South Asia was registered as a non-profit Society under the Societies Registration Act of Government of India and has since expanded work to wetlands in India, Bangladesh, Nepal and Maldives. The Society is steered by a General Body comprising eminent conservation planners and experts who guide our strategic direction. President, Vice-President and Treasurer are the Office Bearers of the Society. Management decisions are vested in a Governing Body comprising Office Bearers, three elected members from General Body and Chief Executive Officer, Wetlands International.
A multidisciplinary team established within the office and expert network enable providing evidence-based scientific and technical advice to central and state governments, wetland authorities, and civil society on various aspects of wetland management.

Best Adventure Board Games
Magic, Suspense, and Quests… Oh My!
Adventuring is a dirty job, but someone has to do it. It's not like there are board games about farming or quiltmaking….Oh, wait. That's beside the point.
Today we're answering the call. The call to ADVENTURE, that is. An adventure board game doesn't always need a Tolkien-style dark lord and a magical ring (it does help sometimes). A true adventure board game tells a story and offers up meaningful decisions with an impact on the player characters.
We've scoured ancient tomes, faraway lands, labyrinths, and the furthest reaches of the known world to find the best adventure board games just for you.
Our Top Picks for Best Adventure Board Games
In a hurry? Take a quick peek before you go.
Best Story-Driven
Legacy of Dragonholt feels as if you're living through an epic tale with your best friends. It's incredibly innovative and a ton of fun to play.
Best Cooperative
Gloomhaven is a big box of adventure. The only problem you'll have is trying to find time to do things other than getting lost in the world of Gloomhaven with your friends.

Mage Knight: Ultimate Edition
I'm a huge fan of Mage Knight, and with the ultimate edition, there's not a single thing I can really fault about the game. It gives a ton of freedom and choice while providing a stellar adventure.
#1. Mage Knight: Ultimate Edition
Players take the role of powerful Mage Knights that explore the Atlantean Empire. What you actually do is entirely up to you.
Mage Knight has it all when it comes to adventure board games. There are RPG mechanics as Mage Knights level up and gain powerful skills and spells, players can pick up companions to help them on their quests, and, most importantly, morality is completely defined by the player.
Need supplies, but can't afford them right now? There is that monastery sitting there undefended…
Not only does Mage knight offer an incredible world to explore and multiple campaign-style scenarios for adventurers, but it also pulls double duty as one of the best solo games I've ever played.
Mage Knight checks every single box I have for an adventure game, and it's a must-have in my book.
#2. Gloomhaven
Gloomhaven is arguably the most impressive adventure board game available. It's certainly one of the largest and will let players sink hours (if not months) into the world of Gloomhaven.
Gloomhaven is like a well-orchestrated Dungeons & Dragons campaign without a dungeon master. Instead, the scenario booklet and the mechanics run the game while players just need to concern themselves with surviving and glory.
The mechanics and story of Gloomhaven can be daunting at first, especially since it's made with legacy elements, in which characters continue to grow and influence the world of Gloomhaven directly.
#3. 7th Continent
7th Continent is extremely unique. It's based on the Fighting Fantasy, solo adventure books, written by Steve Jackson and Ian Livingston.
7th Continent is the epitome of adventure. Having the source material come from an old adventure series creates a world of exploration, intrigue, danger, and adventure right from the start.
Players create their characters (or character) and then send them out on a randomized modular board to explore the 7th continent and uncover its secrets.
The entire production of the game is quite astounding. From artwork to mechanics, 7th Continent is amazing. Perhaps one of the coolest features is that the adventure can be paused or saved quickly. 7th Continent is designed to save progress on your adventure and pick it up again at a later date.
The 7th Continent
#4. War of the Ring
Being huge Lord of the Rings fans, we're really into War of the Ring. It's one of my favorite LOTR board games.
War of the Rings is the classic epic struggle of good versus evil, but unlike Tolkien's timeless classic, the outcome isn't set in stone. Players can relive the classic tale as either the forces of Sauron or the Free Peoples of Middle Earth.
There's even a tracker to keep track of the Fellowship as they journey through Mordor. War of the Ring has large-scale battles, decisive moments, incredible tension, and theme, and it's a fantastic two-player game in its own right even though it can be played with up to 4.
If ever you were looking for a fantasy adventure, Lord of the Rings is always a great place to start.
War of the Ring (Second Edition)
#5. Legacy of Dragonholt
Legacy of Dragonholt is like playing an old choose your own adventure novel with a bunch of friends.
Legacy of Dragonholt is an amazing storybook that players work through. Each player plays as a customized character with various skills. During a single game, players will work through the adventure book. One of the coolest things about Legacy of Dragonholt, besides the awesome story, are the components. The first thing our intrepid adventurers receive is a letter from an old friend, and inside the box is the actual physical letter that players can pick up and look for clues.
The thought processes and writing that went behind the game are phenomenal. The game itself gives players the option of how to solve problems and progress in the story. For example, if there's an obstacle blocking a party, players may have the option to bypass the obstacle through brute force, acrobatics, or even tools they may have available. How they go about it is completely up to the players.
#6. Lord of The Rings: Journeys in Middle Earth
The world of Tolkien's Lord of the Rings and Middle Earth has inspired a number of authors, series, and writers since Tolkien first touched pen to paper.
Journeys in Middle Earth is a rather impressive miniatures game in which players control key moments in the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Unlike a lot of all vs. board games, Journeys in Middle Earth comes with a companion app that can be downloaded for free and controls all of the enemies. This means that everyone gets to fight on the same team, and there isn't that one player stuck being the bad guys every game.
It can be quite the adventure when wandering through forbidden woods when all of a sudden a gang of orcs accosts the party.
Lord of the Rings: Journeys in Middle Earth
#7. Mansions of Madness
Mansions of Madness is another Lovecraft-inspired board game from Fantasy Flight, but this one takes a bit more intimate look at madness and exploration. Instead of getting free reign of Arkham or the world, players are confined to a mansion.
In this adventure, they'll need to explore the mansion, find clues, stop the elder gods from awakening, and, hopefully, not lose their sanity or their lives in the process.
Similar to Journeys in Middle Earth, Mansions of Madness also has a companion app that controls the mansions and encounters players will deal with throughout the game. It makes it a lot easier to set up and play once the app is up and running.
#8. Aftermath: An Adventure Book Game
Post-apocalypse fuzzy critters… that sounds like an adventure to me. From Plaid Hat Games comes another anthropomorphic romp, but this time, instead of castles or nightmare creatures, players will be exploring the apocalypse.
In the possibly not-too-distant future, humanity has been completely wiped out and all that's left are hyper-intelligent animals and woodland critters trying to survive in an apocalypse wasteland.
Aftermath has some similarities to its predecessor Mice and Mystics but does improve a bit on worldbuilding and storytelling. Players will adventure forth into the apocalypse and scavenge the wastes while fighting off other creatures.
Aftermath is a really fun storytelling game and has another fun booklet that brings the entire world to life as players adventure into the wastes.
Aftermath: an Adventure Book Game
#9. Robinson Crusoe: Adventure on the Cursed Island
Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe was one of my favorite books growing up, and Adventure on the Cursed Island just so happens to be one of my favorite board games.
This isn't a fun little jaunt through the woods, either. Adventure on the Cursed Island is hard and dangerous. Literally leaving camp on any given outing can spell absolute disaster for the party, but to make matters worse, if you don't leave the safety of camp you'll die slowly. If you leave, chances are you'll die horribly.
Good luck, but if you manage to survive, you're in for an amazing experience and one of the best cooperative games you'll ever experience.
Robinson Crusoe: Adventures on the Cursed Island
#10. Eldritch Horror / Arkham Horror
Eldritch monsters and globetrotting adventurers? That sounds like the perfect adventure story.
Eldritch Horror is the spiritual successor to Arkham Horror. Instead of staying in Arkham Horror. Instead of being contained in the most unfortunate city in all of existence, Arkham, the elder gods and cults are awakening and beginning to make moves worldwide.
Players journey around the world searching for clues of hidden cults and alien monsters across the globe, all while trying to keep their sanity and preventing the unthinkable from happening, the awakening of an elder god.
Eldritch Horror plays very similarly to Arkham, but being released later, a few quirks have been edited out in the rules and everything feels like a much more polished game. The storytelling and adventure stories that come out of a playthrough are quite exciting and it's a fantastic way to spend an evening.
#11. Descent: Journeys in the Dark
Descent is a fantasy dungeon crawler in which players face off against the most dangerous predator…MAN. One lucky player gets to take the role of the dungeon and controls all of the monsters with special boosts to kill and cause trouble for all the adventurers.
In this adventure, players have to work together to survive long enough to clear the dungeon and steal the loot. It's the classic fantasy adventure, but Descent brings it to life beautifully with impressive miniatures and solid mechanics. There's a reason it's hitting our top adventure board games list and our best dungeon crawler list.
Descent: Journeys in the Dark
#12. Plunder: The Pirate's Life
Plunder is a pirate adventure game in which players sail around a modular board of islands and seaports. It's a rather simple game with a lot of fun thematic elements. Although the rules are simple, the gameplay and strategy still hold up. There is a rule and move element to ships and that can be taboo to some hardcore gamers but Plunder works wonders as a gateway adventure game.
Players are let loose on an unsuspecting archipelago. Players have the option of gaining victory through trade, combat, piracy, and even taking over whole islands for themselves. The road to victory is vast, and how you get there is entirely up to you.
Plunder: A Pirate's Life
#13. Arkham Horror: The Card Game
Another Eldritch board game makes the list. I don't necessarily like Lovecraft (his writing or his personality), but I really enjoy the world that he inspired.
Arkham Horror: The Card Game sticks to the tried and true Lovecraftian elder monsters and tropes in this deck-builder. Each game revolves around different scenarios as our intrepid adventurers unravel the mystery surrounding cults, monsters, the end of the world, and humanity as we know it.
The interesting thing about the card game is the deck-building aspects of the game. As players progress, they'll get access to new cards and abilities making each game different.
If you're looking for an Eldritch Adventure that doesn't take up 3 tables worth of space, the card game does manage to bring the adventure down to a much smaller playing area while still packing a fun punch.
Arkham Horror: The Card Game (Revised Core Set)
#14. Call to Adventure
Call to Adventure is one of the most unique storytelling board games I've ever seen. If you find yourself daydreaming a lot about fantastical adventures or getting lost in fantasy novels, Call to Adventure is an easy choice.
Call to Adventure allows players to create a character and help them fulfill their destiny. Using cards, they'll form a character based on the traits they pick up through cards and try to live out their ultimate destiny.
There is, of course, a point system for the winner, but the stories that come out of Call to Adventure are more often than not the most exciting part of the game. Everyone will walk away from the table with a cool story, regardless of who wins.
Call to Adventure
#15. Dragonfire
Dungeons & Dragons is synonymous with adventure stories and Dragonfire is no exception.
Dragonfire is a Dungeons & Dragons-themed deck-building adventure that has players trekking through the famous Sword Coast.
Just like with actual Dungeons & Dragons, players can level up their characters at certain milestones to get powered up. Dragonfire uses a sticker system similar to the Shadowrun card game. When players level up, they can choose a sticker that designates a new feat/ability and stick it right onto their character sheets.
Dragonfire is quite the adventure that will have players delving through dungeons and fighting dragons. If that's not enough for you, there are several expansions that take players through other famous Dungeons & Dragons locales like Baldur's Gate and Neverwinter.
#16. Champions of Hara
Champions of Hara is quite an adventure. Player characters from all different backgrounds and worlds are pulled into the world of Hara. Within Hara, unstable energies ripple through the lands and whoever can stabilize them wins a wish from the mysterious and powerful Kensei.
The story adventure story elements in Champions of Hara are extremely well done. The game itself is played in episodes. First as a free-for-all with each champion trying to win a wish from the Kensei, and afterward, the winner chooses a scenario specific to their chosen character in a cooperative game.
It's a very unique take on extended gameplay and story between games, and it's done incredibly well. Champions of Hara offers a grand adventure for multiple characters across multiple scenarios which will keep any player busy for quite some time.
Champions of Hara
#17. Betrayal at the House on the Hill
Get ready for a Scooby Doo-style adventure through a haunted mansion. Players need to be prepared for anything like crazy cat ladies, flesh-eating zombies, mad killers, and even the Ouroborus snake devouring the world.
Betrayal at House on the Hill is a 2-part adventure game. The first half involves running around the mansion on the hill, exploring, picking up items, and gaining stats (hopefully). Stage 2 is where the real fun begins.
Stage 2 is the haunt. Each game will play out differently and the scenario depends upon the rooms and items revealed during phase 1. The scenario booklet that comes with the game references multiple adventures that the players could encounter. Some of them are purely cooperative, some involve a powered-up traitor, other scenarios are everyone for themself, and some are just plain weird.
No matter which scenario players find themselves it's guaranteed to be an interesting adventure.
#18. Pathfinder: Adventure Card Game
When looking for adventure, it helps when it's literally in the title and backed up by one of the most popular pen and paper RPG systems.
Pathfinder: Adventure Card Game takes a simple card system and turns it into a customizable deck-building RPG adventure game. Players start with a standard deck and explore the different locations of the scenario looking for the big bad evil guy of the scenario. Once they're found, players need to work together to close off locations and corner them for a final showdown.
As players progress through the game, the cards in their deck will slowly grow and swap out with more powerful weapons and cards, and even the characters themselves will gain better stats the longer they play.
It's a bit of a mish-mash of genres and can get a little pricey buying the separate modules, but even with the base set or 1-2 expansions, it's quite the adventure experience.
#19. Above and Below
Above and Below has quirky fun artwork wrapped in a cute little package. At its core, it's a worker placement, tableau-building game but to expand your settlement, you'll need to build above… and below the ground.
Each player is in charge of their own settlement but below ground is a massive network of tunnels and caverns filled with mystery and whole civilizations. To build below, ground players will need to first explore and go on an expedition below to find a suitable location.
The adventures are filled with fun little scenarios that can improve your reputation, damage it, or reward players with valuable resources. The adventure scenarios are really fun but they're not the most comprehensive. It's definitely worth checking out, especially if you're a fan of worker placement games.
#20. Mice and Mystics
Mice and Mystics is a fantastic introductory adventure game, especially for younger players. It's designed and plays like reading a bedtime story.
Welcome to a world in which "being small doesn't mean you can't change the world". In this adventure game, the former prince of the kingdom and his loyal cohort has been transformed into tiny mice to escape the coup of the evil witch Vanestra. It's up to the players to rally their forces and take back the kingdom that was once theirs.
Mice and Mystics has an incredible storyline that takes players through an episodic journey filled with magic, suspense, and epic tails.

• Ectosymbiosis: The partners remain external to each other, such as in lichens.
• Endosymbiosis: The smaller symbionts are inside the host, but remain extracellular. Most of the time en-dosymbionts are in the digestive tract, or inside particular organs.
• Endocytobiosis is intracellular symbiosis. Symbio-some membranes are the host cell's vacuoles that enclose the symbiont.
• Obligate symbionts are so highly adapted to a symbiotic experience that they cannot live outside of it.
• Facultative symbionts, however, can live in a free-living condition.

(CNS): A 22-year-old man has been seriously injured after he was hit by a car as he was working down a man hole. A police spokesperson said that the man, who is currently in hospital suffering from multiple injuries, was struck sometime after 1:00pm on Friday afternoon as he was working in the manhole situated in South Church Street at the junction with Parsons Lane, George Town. A woman who was driving a Suzuki Vitara from Parsons Lane and turning onto South Church Street hit the man. He was taken to the Cayman Islands Hospital, George Town, after the accident where he remains and where his condition is described as serious.
Police have not made an arrest in the case but are asking anyone who witnessed the incident to contact George Town police station on 949-4222.
(CNS): A 30-year-old Bodden Town woman and mother of three was found guilty of four offences relating to counterfeit cash Friday by a jury. Shannon Ebanks was convicted of possessing and using a forged CI$10 bill in the Everglo Bar in Bodden Town and possessing more than 40 partially printed CI$25 bills and equipment that could be used in counterfeiting, such as paper, a copier, metallic pens, a counterfeit detection pen and the same types of metal strips used in CIMA currency, at her home, which she shared with her boyfriend. Ebanks had denied knowing the bill she used in the bar was forged or anything about the hidden cash, which police had found hidden in a magazine on a high shelf in the bathroom she and her partner shared.
During the week long trial Ebanks' defense attorney, John Furniss, had argued that there was no forensic evidence such as DNA or prints on the fake notes found at home to link her to them and anyone of a number of people who were staying and visiting the house could have hidden the fake notes. Ebanks also took the stand and denied knowing anything about the partially printed fakenotes or that the money she claimed had been given to her in change was forged. In addition, her boyfriend, Shane Bodden, gave evidence on her behalf and admitted that the silver strips were his, having come from old notes that he said had been washed by mistake.
However, crown counsel Kenneth Ferguson argued that Ebanks did have knowledge that the money she used in the bar was fake as a result of the totality of the evidence. He pointed to the coincidence of her using forged money in a bar which she claimed had been given to her at Foster's Supermarket, and yet a few months later forged cash was also found hidden in her home, along with equipment used to make counterfeit currency.
The judge directed the jury on Friday morning that the key issue in the case was whether or not Ebanks knew the cash she used in the bar was fake, whether she had knowledge of the fake notes hidden in her home and that the paper, metal strips and pens, etc, were being used to make forged money. He said they could only find Ebanks guilty if they were sure she had that knowledge.
Following the discharge of one member of the jury as a result of illness, it took the remaining three men and three women three hours to return their guilty verdict. Ebanks was bailed to appear for sentencing in February.
(CNS): One man was injured, having been trapped inside his car, and another man arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving after a collision shortly after 9:00 this morning on Discovery Drive, Lower Valley in Bodden Town. Police say that a Chevy TrailBlazer was seen travelling at high speed, heading east. When it reached the vicinity of the Discovery Drive entrance, the driver attempted to turn into the road when he lost control and collided with a Hyundai H10, which was at the entrance of Discovery Drive waiting to exit onto Shamrock Road. The impact caused the Hyundai to be pushed in the bushes and male occupant trapped inside. He was freed by fire officers using the jaws of life and transported to the Cayman Islands Hospital by ambulance.
The driver of the TrailBlazer was arrested at the scene on suspicion of dangerous driving at a speed.
However, the massive difference in the cost of the procedures would go some way to offsetting the travel costs and difficulties that patients from the Caribbean would face, Thompson maintained.
The Caribbean was identified as the first area where patients would come from, he said, because it would take the hospital around six months from its opening to gain the necessary Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation before it can accept American patients. Thompson said that it would "be great to have" the American market, "but we don't need it," he added, as he pointed to the 38 million people in this region.
When Shetty first proposed his idea, his target market was the US because of the Cayman Islands proximity, its western standards and quality of life, as well as the cost of care and limited access to it in the region.
With eyes now on the Caribbean, Thompson said the hospital would not see large numbers in the first few weeks but within four to five months there would be a much higher flow of patients from around the region at the facility.
Despite being a high cost jurisdiction, the model would still work here, Thompson said, noting that they were in discussions with health insurance providers. The Health City Cayman Islands was not about running a business but about "executing a vision", he said, pointing to Dr Shetty's desire to change the way that healthcare is provided the world over.
Thompson said that there were many people in the Caribbean without access to healthcare in the region and the group had already identified blocks of patients that were in dire need of affordable healthcare. He pointed out that there are many people in need of health care that have no coverage at all and Dr Shetty would be providing 100 children from around the Caribbean with free heart surgery when the facility opens next year.
The grand opening date is on schedule for 25 February and the hospital is expected to welcome its first patients some ten days or so later.
(CNS): The Cayman Islands tourism product has benefited from the decades of protection of the ocean environment and the establishment of marine parks more than 25 years ago, the Cayman Islands Tourism Association (CITA) said this week, as it offered its formal support to government on the long-awaited National Conservation Law. The private sector tourism body said that environmental issues directly affect tourism businesses' future ability to be competitive in the marketplace. The importance of a protected and pristine environment was emphasised by Environment Minister Wayne Panton this week when he pointed out that visitors to Cayman do not come to see concrete and steel.
Although the bill is expected to be steered through the Legislative Assembly next week, it is still stirring controversy as the last round of public meetings demonstrate considerable misconceptions in the public domain about the law.
When asked about how the legislation will help a man put food on the table, Panton explained that without it the tourism product would be undermined and in time putting food on the table will be increasingly difficult for everyone.
In a short statement the association pointed to the "sustainable operating practices to support longevity as well as sustainable development to assure industry growth" in the proposed law. CITA also urged government to enforce this and the marine laws once the legislation was enacted.
The public meetings continue this weekend on Cayman Brac on Saturday and in East End on Monday before the debate in the LA next week.
Meanwhile, the newest local advocacy group promoting conservation Sustainable Cayman has created a petition and a statement of support for the NCL and is encouraging people to sign and add their reasons for supporting the bill to the statement.
(CNS): After weeks of anticipation, the Cayman Islands International Music Fest (CIIMF) will light the skies over Grand Harbour tonight, Friday 6 December (gates open at 7 pm). Comparable to the Department of Tourism's Jazz Fest, CIIMF has created a massive buzz with its line-up of artists such as Percy Sledge, Ginuwine, Verse Simmonds, Omi and a host of well-known local acts. Fulfilling its promise of having a surprise artist, Mogul Entertainment has invited 17-year-old Jamaican singer-songwriter Samantha J to be part of the event. A combination of youth, beauty and talent has made Samantha J an overnight 'hot ticket'.
In just a few weeks, Samantha J has erupted onto the Jamaican music scene with her still unreleased first single "Tight Skirt," her debut song that has gone from the pages of her notebook to the airwaves of Jamaica and beyond in lightning speed.
As part of CIIMF, the event's promoters held the Xposure talent show at Beaches restaurant. The winner Terry Williams, and runner-up, Dexter Ebanks, will both perform at the main event on Friday night.
People who purchased early bird tickets and early concertgoers can enjoy the concert from a special area, courtesy of Cayman Airways, which they can access between 7 pm to 10 pm.
With a theme of "celestial decadence", there will also be a luxury VIP lounge with a posh cigar and cognac retreat, décor by Celebrations and food by Mise en Place, 'top-shelf' wines and spirits by Cayman Distributors, as well as divas clad in magnificent costumes by Caymanian designer, Reba Dilbert.

(CNS): A masked man grabbed an undisclosed sum of cash from Wellys restaurant on Thursday afternoon in a daylight hold-up at knife point, police have confirmed.

The robber threatened the female staff member, who handed the cash to the suspect. An RCIPS spokesperson said the robber made good his escape towards the rear of Welly's. The police are seeking assistance and anyone with information is asked to call GT police station on 949-4222, the RCIPS tip line 949-7777 or Crime Stoppers at 800 TIPS 8477.

(CNS): Bars, clubs and restaurants will all be able to serve booze for the New Year celebrations beyond their usual licensing hours as the chairman of the Liquor Licensing Board has confirmed the annual extensions. Mitchell Welds said that liquor licence holders will get one-hour extension beyond regular closing times on New Year's Eve. "This extension applies to all seven categories of liquor licenses; however, this does not mean that general permission is being granted for all licensed premises to close at the latest time permitted," Welds stated in a release. He emphasised that the additional hour can only be added to the closing time that each business is currently permitted to open.
Welds also noted that all other license stipulations remain in effect.
"Liquor sales and the playing of music must cease during the last ten minutes of permitted opening hours for retail, hotel, restaurant, and beer or wine categoriesof licenses," he said.
Customers also are expected to vacate the premises before closing.
For more information, license holders and members of the public may contact the Liquor Licensing Board's Executive Secretary Marva Scott on 244-3168 or email marva.scott@gov.ky.
(CNS): Five primary school students made history on Tuesday night in the annual Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) Primary School Spelling Bee final when they all nailed every word. Oneika Duncan and Shante Reid of George Town Primary (GTPS), Jordanne Saunders of Cayman Academy, Javon Lewison of Prospect Primary (PPS) and Theodore Thompson of Truth for Youth captured the top honours when each of them spelt every word correctly. In a show of spelling genius, one by one the five dispatched words such as 'cinquefoil', 'proboscis' and 'coccyx', forcing the organisers to spend over an hour attempting to put together an entirely new set of words for a further spell off.
In the end, all five finalists who performed perfectly through to the end of the spell-off were declared first prize winners. Sponsors Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) and its Area Vice President, Michael Munnings, and the organisers decided to up the prize stakes and give all of the participants the first prize when the kids simply could not be caught out.
Reigning champion GTPS retained the Best School trophy, with a winning score of 89 earned by a talented trio of girls that also included finalist Jessica Stewart.
Since the RBC-sponsored spelling bee began in 1998, GTPS has won top honours six times, although Creek and Spot Bay Primary leads with seven titles. Other winners have been Prospect Primary twice and Bodden Town Primary once.

PDP-Sorbeh to the Rescue
By Gibril Gbanabome Koroma, CEO/Publisher |  21 January 2014 at 23:16 |  1270 views
All is not well in the APC camp despite the seeming joyful smiles, hugging and back-slapping at party functions. There is growing disenchantment among some party supporters who think they are being used while the government itself is a showcase of ethnocentrism reminiscent of the Joseph Saidu Momoh days.
The charge of ethnocentrism is real and irrefutable and we have heard of a slow but sure revival of the dreaded PDP-Sorbeh, the political party led by the late Sanda Warrior, Thaimu Bangura, that would have have won the 1996 elections were it not for Dr. John Karefa-Smart's also very popular party the UNPP.
The late Momoh was decried and lost support in the north and Western Area because he made the fatal political mistake of packing his government with members of his ethnic group who called themselves Ekutay. The same charge is currently being levied on President Koroma.
Of course there are denials, calls for nation above ethnicity, bla, bla, bla, yada, yada, yada, just like in the Momoh days.
Despite all that, the PDP-Sorbeh is being quietly revived and from what I hear it will raise a war cry by the end of this year to begin the challenge on the APC once again. That is if president Koroma maintains the status quo and refuses to perform political harakiri.

Legendary 80s television icon Alan Thicke has passed away at the age of 69.
Born in 1947, Thicke grew up in the northwestern Ontario town of Kirkland Lake. After college at the University of Western Ontario, Thicke found his way onto television as a host of various 70s game shows, notably the CFCF-TV game show First Impressions. He is, of course, best known to most of us as the character Jason Seaver from the classic TV show Growing Pains, which ran from 1985 to 1992. Alan also had a successful career as a composer of various TV theme songs in both Canada and the US; he in fact composed the original theme for the US game show Wheel of Fortune.
Alan Thicke is succeeded by his wife Tanya Callau and by his three children. He is fondly remembered by television fans worldwide.

The STV-3101 product family provides high functionality in a 30 outlet smart PDU. The Power Pivot flexible infeed provides simplified power cord routing to the PDU. The Auto-Flip LED display provides the proper display orientation no matter how the PDU is mounted in the rack. Combine these two features for a product that is truly compatible with either overhead busway or raised floor data center applications.
This Sentry PIPS CDU combines all of the features of a Smart CDU with the ability to provide power monitoring per inlet/infeed. Power information per infeed includes current, voltage, power, apparent power, crest factor, reactance, power factor and accumulated energy. This information replaces branch circuit monitoring devices typically installed in the power distribution panel or remote power panel (RPP) with higher accuracy and lower cost monitoring of each circuit attached to the CDU.
Combine the Sentry PIPS Smart Cabinet PDU with the Sentry Power Manager (SPM) software tool to gain power usage information across multiple Cabinet PDU's individual IP address.
This Smart cabinet PDU delivers reliable power distribution, local power monitoring via LEDs, power monitoring via IP and environmental (temperature & humidity) monitoring via IP.
Increasing power demands and density in the equipment cabinet requires new functionality from your cabinet PDU. The Sentry cabinet PDU product family uniquely meets these demands.
The cabinet PDU meets new UL 60950-1 Branch Circuit Protection requirements.

> High Retention Locking Receptacles: All STV-3101 PDUs utilize high retention receptacles to provide additional security when used with conventional power cords. Each PDU is also fully compatible with Server Technology's locking power cord solutions (supplied separately).
Monitor input power via IP or serial interface.
Use the Sentry Web interface to configure each unit's network settings. SNMP traps for environmental & power thresholds and firmware updates. Also use the Web interface to monitor key values, including amperage load(s), temperature/humidity and other environmental conditions. SSL security provides a secure HTTPs connection.
The Sentry family of products supports the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). This allows network management systems to use SNMP requests to retrieve information such as input power, temperature and humidity. The Sentry includes an SNMP v1 agent supporting standard MIB I and MIB II objects. A private enterprise MIB extension (Sentry3 MIB) is also supported to provide remote power control. SNMP traps can be generated for various events, including Input Current Load Thresholds (min & max), Temperature Thresholds (min & max), Humidity Thresholds (min & max), water indication, and closed contacts (cabinet doors open/close).
Connect an Expansion Cabinet PDU to this Smart Cabinet PDU to control two power input circuits and monitor power in the Data Center cabinet (individual or groups) under 1 IP address - our exclusive strategy for managing dual power-supply servers.

Can help me? Thanks in advance

A: I use your code to write a simple demo to update the images in the listView, add a item every 2 second:
Code in MainPage:
public partial class MainPage : ContentPage
{
    ObservableCollection<Libreria> items = new ObservableCollection<Libreria>();

    int a = 0;

    public MainPage()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

        items.Add(new Libreria("1", "Images"));

        lstLibrerie.ItemsSource = items;
        //pickerLibrerie.ItemsSource = new Libreria().GetLibrerie();

        Device.StartTimer(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(2), () =>
        {
            if (a == 0)
            {
                Reload(new Libreria("2", "Images"));
                a = 1;
            }else if (a == 1)
            {
                Reload(new Libreria("3", "Images1"));
                a = 2;
            }
            else if(a == 2)
            {
                Reload(new Libreria("4", "Images2"));
                a = 0;
            }

            return true;
        });
    }

    public void Reload(Libreria newLib)
    {

        items.Insert(0, newLib);

    }
}

public class Libreria  : INotifyPropertyChanged
{
    string myLabel;

    public string Label
    {
        set
        {
            if (myLabel != value)
            {
                myLabel = value;

                if (PropertyChanged != null)
                {
                    PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs("Label"));
                }
            }
        }
        get
        {
            return myLabel;
        }
    }

    string icon;

    public string Icona
    {
        set
        {
            if (icon != value)
            {
                icon = value;

                if (PropertyChanged != null)
                {
                    PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs("Icona"));
                }
            }
        }
        get
        {
            return icon;
        }
    }

    public Libreria(string label, string cona) {

        Label = label;
        Icona = cona;
    }

    public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
}

I removed the ScrollView from the ViewCell and the other xaml code is same as you.
Let have a look at the result:
