This rarely given, unique empowerment, was arranged by Jamgon Kongtrul, one of the most famous non-sectarian Buddhist master in the 19th century, and a contemporary of Chokgyur Lingpa. In order to tame the beings of this Jambudvipa continent who are extremely difficult to tame, Thousand-Arm Avalokiteshvara manifested one thousand chakravatins (universal monarchs) from its arms, and one thousand Buddhas in this Fortunate Aeon from its thousand eyes. Although the thousand Buddhas of this aeon is of a single essence of Avalokiteshvara's enlightened wisdom, each of them will manifest distinctly and separately, appearing at different times to tame sentient beings. At the beginning, each Buddha will give rise to the altruistic mind of enlightenment, in the middle, they will perform the compassionate acts of bodhisattavas, and in the end, they will manifest enlightenment activities beyond our ordinary concepts. This year, Phakchok Rinpoche has kindly agreed to bestow this empowerment in Thailand.

Truly, family is everything. We have found a direct correlation between family support and client outcomes. When families buy into the process of care, maintain healthy boundaries and learn to understand the addiction and co-occurring disorder in their loved ones, they become a powerful part of the healing process. To support family involvement in the Turnbridge process, we work to educate families, manage their treatment expectations, and train family members to play a healthy and active role in the treatment and care of their loved ones.
Turnbridge offers several programs and resources for family members, and encourages families to remain actively engaged in the addiction treatment process and their own healing throughout the entire Turnbridge process. Our Family Liaison becomes a deeply appreciated resource to parents and loved ones, and typically takes part in most intakes and Initial Family Meetings (IFMs) that take place at the beginning of each phase. Monthly Parent Support and Sibling Support groups allows immediately family members of current clients and alumni to come together to share, learn, give hope, and help heal.
Our Intensive Family Healing Workshop, authored and facilitated by noted Family and Addiction Consultant Diana Clark, JD, MA, educates family members about the disease of addiction, encourages the examination of one's role in the family system, and provides strategies for identifying and addressing addictive behavior. These once-monthly Sunday workshop sessions are psychoeducational in nature and help families to understand the scope of what their child is facing and manage expectations on the time it takes to heal.
In addition to these structured Family Programs, clients always have an open channel of communication to their families and are encouraged to have phone calls with family members at least once per week.


Many of us have watched movies like Minority Report, Complete Recall, and Back to the Future. Unless we wake up to the injury that the gadget-crammed, pharmaceutically-enhanced twenty first century is doing to our brains, we may very well be sleepwalking towards a future by which neuro-chip know-how blurs the road between residing and non-dwelling machines, and between our bodies and the skin world.
The advancement of Science and technology permit mass communication at this time in order that we not solely have the tv, radio and newspaper, however even cellphones which renders a multipurpose service; from long distance calls, listening to radio and music, playing games, taking footage, recording voice and video, and shopping the internet.

Q: Object don't call the good controller In my apps, I have a toolBar with a button inside. When you pressed that button a actionSheet appear and you can change the langage of the apps. I want a put this toolBar in a lot of view, but I want to use the same object, not copy-paste in all my view. So I create a UIViewController with a nib file, this nib file containt my toolBar. Now, in a uiview, I do this
toolBar *objToolBall = [[toolBar alloc] initWithNibName:@"toolBar" bundle:nil];

objToolBall.view.frame = CGRectMake(0, 418, 320, 44);

[self.view addSubview:objToolBall.view];

[objToolBall release];

my problem is that when I pressed the button in the toolBar, the program try to find the method "clickButtonLanguage" in the file I create the object, and not in "toolBar.m".
How I can go in the "toolBar.m" method?

A: The problem is not the release (assuming that your original viewController and its associated view are still around).  The release makes sense: you've created an object, handed off responsibility for it to the view you added it to, and now you need to release it so it doesn't leak.  So don't drop that line.
You're getting the method invocation in your original view controller because that's exactly what you've connected it to.  If you want to connect it to other IBActions you'll have to add them programmatically with
[objToolBall addTarget:action:forControlEvents:]

and then remove those objects as listeners with matching calls to -removeTarget:action:forControlEvents.

CNN Poll: US economy receives its best ranking in nearly 20 years
By Grace Sparks, CNN
Updated 7:55 AM EST, Fri December 20, 2019
Here's where Democratic candidates stand against Trump
As 2019 comes to a close, the US economy earns its highest ratings in almost two decades, potentially boosting President Donald Trump in matchups against the Democrats vying to face him in next year's election, according to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS.
Overall, 76% rate economic conditions in the US today as very or somewhat good, significantly more than those who said so at this time last year (67%). This is the highest share to say the economy is good since February 2001, when 80% said so.
Almost all Republicans (97%) say economic conditions are good right now, as do 75% of independents and 62% of Democrats. Positive ratings are up across parties compared with August of this year, when 91% of Republicans, 62% of independents and 47% of Democrats said the economy was in good shape.

America's housing market is coming back to life just in time to boost the 2020 economy
Looking ahead, nearly 7 in 10 expect the economy to be in good shape a year from now (68%), the best outlook in CNN polling since December 2003. The new finding includes 63% who say things are good now and will continue to be good next year, while just 9% say they economy is currently good but will turn south in 2020.
The matchups against Trump
As perceptions of the economy have brightened, the poll also shows matchups between the top Democrats vying for the 2020 nomination and Trump tightening. In October, four Democrats tested in hypothetical head-to-head contests with Trump among registered voters lead by anywhere from six to 10 percentage points, all advantages outside that poll's margin of sampling error.
Fact check of the sixth Democratic debate
Now, just two of those candidates hold edges at or above the error margin: former Vice President Joe Biden leads Trump nationally 49% to 44%, and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders tops Trump 49% to 45%. Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren and South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg each run about even with the President.
The poll was conducted before the House voted to impeach Trump on Wednesday and the Democrats held their sixth primary debate on Thursday.
Across battleground states (a group which includes the 15 states decided by 8 points or less in 2016) – all four Democrats run within the margin of error of Trump. Biden and Trump tie at 47% each, while Trump holds 48% support to Warren's 46%, 48% to Buttigieg's 43%, and 49% to Sanders' 45%.
The tighter margins against the president come as favorability ratings appear to be sliding for the top Democratic contenders, according to results from the same poll released earlier this week. Biden notches his first net-negative rating in CNN's polling since 2015, with 39% now holding a favorable view and 47% unfavorable.
Sanders splits the public: 43% see him favorably, 44% unfavorably, a dip since October but about on par with his ratings earlier this year.
Warren's favorable numbers have slipped 4 points since October and are significantly net-negative now, 34% favorable to 43% unfavorable. Buttigieg has seen an uptick in unfavorable views (27% now, up from 23% in October) to match his favorable rating (27%), but he remains the least-well-known of the top Democratic contenders, with 46% saying they haven't heard of him or don't know enough to have an opinion.
The President's favorability rating has remained steady since CNN's October poll – 43% have a favorable opinion of Trump, 53% unfavorable.

An impeached Trump tries looking ahead, but uncertainty threatens Senate vindication
But shifts in views on the Democratic candidates may not be as negative a sign as they were in 2016. Those registered voters who hold an unfavorable opinion of Trump and his Democratic opponent are much more likely to favor the Democratic candidate over Trump in that matchup. Among those who have a negative opinion of both Trump and Biden, for example, 72% support Biden in a hypothetical matchup while 9% prefer Trump. Those who don't like either Sanders or Trump break for Sanders, 59% to 18%, and the pattern holds for Warren and Buttigieg as well.
In 2016, by contrast, those who had an unfavorable opinion of both Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton and Trump broke for Trump 47% to 30% for Clinton, with 19% backing third party candidates, according to exit polls.
Trade and USMCA
More than half (55%) approve of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement – the new trade agreement between the US, Mexico, and Canada which would replace the North American Free Trade Agreement, fulfilling a prominent campaign promise in Trump's 2016 run for the presidency.
Fewer (13%) disapprove and around a third aren't sure or don't have an opinion of Trump's proposed trade deal. Already, the agreement provokes partisan division, with 70% of Republicans approving, 53% of independents and 44% of Democrats.
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Richard Neal(behind), Democrat of Massachusetts, speaks about the US - Mexico - Canada Agreement, known as the USMCA, on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC, December 10, 2019.

House passes Trump's trade deal with Canada and Mexico
Seven in 10 see foreign trade generally as more of an opportunity for economic growth through increased US exports (71%) rather than a threat to the economy from foreign imports (16%), steady since this time last year. On that, there is rare partisan agreement. Around seven in 10 Democrats, Republicans, and independents agree that foreign trade is an opportunity for growth.
The CNN Poll was conducted by SSRS December 12 through 15 among a random national sample of 1,005 adults reached on landlines or cellphones by a live interviewer. Results for the full sample have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3.7 percentage points. For results among the subset of 888 registered voters, the error margin is plus or minus 4.0 percentage points.

Cold sore's herpes simplex virus mechanism revealed
16 Feb 22 Wed 05 Jul 08 Sat by Editor Health News
Now that Duke University Medical Center scientists have figured out how the virus that causes cold sores hides out, they may have a way to wake it up and kill it.
Cold sores, painful, unsightly blemishes around the mouth, have so far evaded a cure or even prevention. They're known to be caused by the herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV1), which lies dormant in the trigeminal nerve of the face until triggered to reawaken by excessive sunlight, fever, or other stresses.
"We have provided a molecular understanding of how HSV1 hides and then switches back and forth between the latent (hidden) and active phases," said Bryan Cullen, Duke professor of molecular genetics and microbiology.
His group's findings, published in Nature, also provide a framework for studying other latent viruses, such as the chicken pox virus, which can return later in life as a case of shingles, and herpes simplex 2 virus, a genitally transmitted virus that also causes painful sores, Cullen said.
Most of the time, HSV1 lives quietly for years, out of reach of any therapy we have against it. It does not replicate itself during this time and only produces one molecular product, called latency associated transcript RNA or LAT RNA.
"It has always been a mystery what this product, LAT RNA, does," Cullen said. "Usually viral RNAs exist to make proteins that are of use to the virus, but this LAT RNA is extremely unstable and does not make any proteins."
In studies of mice, the team showed that the LAT RNA is processed into smaller strands, called microRNAs, that block production of the proteins that make the virus turn on active replication. As long as the supply of microRNAs is sufficient, the virus stays dormant.
After a larger stress, however, the virus starts making more messenger RNA than the supply of microRNAs can block, and protein manufacturing begins again. This tips the balance, and the virus ultimately makes proteins that begin active viral replication.
The new supply of viruses then travels back down the trigeminal nerve, to the site of the initial infection at the mouth. A cold sore always erupts in the same place and is the source of viruses that might infect another person, either from direct contact, or sharing eating utensils or towels, Cullen said.
The approach to curing this nuisance would be a combination therapy, Cullen said. "Inactive virus is completely untouchable by any treatment we have. Unless you activate the virus, you can't kill it," he said.
Cullen and his team are testing a new drug designed to very precisely bind to the microRNAs that keep the virus dormant. If it works, the virus would become activated and start replicating.
Once the virus is active, a patient would then take acyclovir, a drug that effectively kills replicating HSV1.
"In principle, you could activate and then kill all of the virus in a patient," Cullen said. "This would completely cure a person, and you would never get another cold sore."
He and the team are working with drug development companies in animal trials to begin to answer questions about how to deliver this drug most effectively.
Co-authors included Jennifer Lin Umbach, Ph.D., and Heather W. Karnowski, B.S., of the Duke Department of Molecular Genetics and Microbiology and Center for Virology, and Martha F. Kramer, Igor Jurak, and Prof. Donald M. Coen of the Department of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology at Harvard Medical School. This work was supported by two NIH grants.

Plaid Cymru responds to reports that US has halted arms sales to Saudi Arabia.
"Plaid Cymru has long campaigned for the UK Government to halt its arms dealings with Saudi Arabia and our work in the past has exposed the UK Government for training Saudi forces involved in human rights atrocities.
"I am pleased that the Obama administration has finally taken the right decision and it is imperative now that the UK Government follows suit and immediately terminates its own arms dealings with the repressive and undemocratic regime.
"Innocent civilians are being killed in Yemen by bombs made in Britain. It is intensely hypocritical of Westminster to talk of the pain and suffering by civilians across the Middle East as it continues to prop up regimes of this sort.
"People are being killed as a result of indiscriminate bombing on civilian targets by the Saudi-led coalition using weapons supplied to them by the UK Government.


Kelly Clarkson's new song 'Tie It Up' slipped past the latest single from Toby Keith by the slimmest of Showdown margins. Barely one percentage point separted the two cuts, with Clarkson's new single surging ahead in the final hours. Today, she'll take on another of country music's toughest men.
Aaron Lewis returns with a new track called 'Granddaddy's Gun.' It's a song about a piece of family heritage that taught the singer much more than how to hunt and how to scare away burglars. Sonically, these two competitors couldn't be more different, meaning they're sure to attract crowds of fans with very different viewpoints.
Listen to clips of both Clarkson and Lewis' songs and vote for your favorite here. You can vote once every hour until this Showdown ends on Friday at 8AM ET, so come back and vote often to be sure your artist wins. The winner of this matchup will face a new challenger on Friday.

Q: Sending and receiving text messages (SMS) over iPhone 5 with Bluetooth from Win7 I have tried to connect my iPhone via bluetooth to my Windows 7 PC.
After following some suggestions online, I updated the Broadcomm drivers from here: http://www.broadcom.com/support/bluetooth/update.php
The iPhone now connects, and I was surprised to find an interface for sending messages (MAP MAS-iOS)

As well as the option to connect to the device to send SMS messages:

When I pressed Connect I got a functional little interface that shows the battery and reception of my phone:

However, when I try to send a text it keeps disconnecting. I can't identify any specific errors.
Has anyone managed to get text messaging via iPhone to work? I couldn't find anything online that shows success (or failure) and I feel like I am very close...

A: The iPhone doesn't support sending text messages over bluetooth (for security purposes according to apple).


As hunters, we want to learn as much about our prey as we possible can. Naturally, but there are so many different things you hear and read. One author says do this and the other says to do that. How do you even make sense of it? This is my "No B.S." spin on rubs.
I'm not going to cover every tiny aspect of a rub, this post would be forever long. I will touch base on the most important factors. Personally, a rub is the best sign a buck could ever leave me. A rub is a HUGE piece of the puzzle. Scrapes are fine and dandy, I'll talk about those in another post, but rubs are the true blue deal when it comes to buck sign.
When you find a rub, don't just look at it and say, " Look a rub," and then keep going on your way. Stop and investigate the crime scene. Ah yes, the wise old tail that big bucks make big rubs and little bucks make little rubs. This is accurate, but only some of the time. I just watched a video of a little fork trashin' a huge rub. Most often this doesn't happen, but don't rule it out. If its a little bean pole rub, doesn't matter, it's a rub. Big boys make lots of little rubs. If you find more big rubs than little ones, you'd be safe to lean towards a deer with age, yes.
When you find a rub, most importantly, do what I call "Blood Trailin' Rubs." What I mean by this is look at the rub from the side of the tree showing the most damage. Center your body with it and look past the rub. This will give you a general direction of travel. So start walkin'! Ask yourself as you walk very slowly, "if I were a deer which way would I be going?" This time of year, more than not, I'd be willing to bet you find more. As you walk away from the rub look left to right for more. Usually within 60 yards or so to one side or the other you'll find another one. Once you do, just repeat what you've just done.
This rub will probably be in a different direction, with the most damage. Center yourself and start walking. Sometimes you have to leave your mental path to find the next, just don't forget where your path was. Boom. You find another, repeat. Boom. You find yet another. Now you have a fantastic piece of the puzzle. Now, mentally make a line from one rub to the other on all of them you've found. This is his rub line. This time of the year you can usually pull some kind of line off most rubs. Lots of people think if you see rubs close and grouped that it is a rub line. Not usually true. Rub clusters are a different puzzle piece assocaited with bedding and staging areas. Also important, but we've talkin' rub LINES.
The great thing about his rub line is that it tells you exactly where he's been traveling. Trees with rubs are like having camera's on all these trees! No matter how long or short these lines are, none the less, you've just pegged part of his travel route. HUNT IT!!! Set up a stand according to your prevailing wind and wait untill you get that wind, which should be most of the time.
To get even deeper into this thing, here's another little tid bit for you. Once you've found a rub line, start searching for another. First take one side of the existing line you have already found. Sometimes it's close and at times a little further away, but there is another to be found. Do the same steps on each side and usaully you can find another line, but the majority of the damage is on the oppisite side of the trees. When you can find this situation, jackpot baby. One line is his moring route and the other is his evening route. Again, HUNT IT!!!
Putting all the pieces together gets you closer to game and more blood on your tags. Pay close attention to ALL sign, after all it is just that, a sign. Treat everything you see as just a small piece of the whole picture in which you are trying to create. One rub is just a piece of his rub line, one rub line is just a piece of his movements, his movements are just a piece of you putting your tag on him! Everything counts, so keep an open mind. Now go find them RUBS! Good luck and don't forget, shoot straight!


Leave It To Me Quilting!
Offering professional longarm quilting services.
on my longarm quilting machine.
For those of you who do not know me, I will begin by telling you a little about myself. I began quilting in 1986 when I received some quilt tops that my husband's grandmother had left. I soon began making my own quilt tops and hand quilted them for 10 years. Like most quilters, I soon had more quilt tops than I could ever hand quilt so I took my first machine quilting class and quilted on my domestic sewing machine for a while. I finally purchased my Gammill Optimum Plus Longarm machine and started quilting tops for other people as a full time business in 2005.
I have taken over 65 longarm quilting classes from recognized experts in the longarm quilting field. I do free form all over designs, pantograph designs ( a.k.a edge-to-edge and all over) and custom quilting on pieced quilts. I have many patterns to choose from. I am a member of the International Machine Quilter's Association, and the International Quilt Association. I am also a proud member of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution. Please see the information below regarding eight books that my quilting has been published in.
I no longer accept T-shirt quilt tops to be quilted. The newer polyester jerseys, heavy embroidery work, thick plastic coatings, and ornamentation such as braiding causes so many tension issues that it is no longer a profitable category for me. I also do not accept embroidery or applique quilts for custom quilting.
I live in the Dallas/Ft. Worth, Texas area. I hope you will consider me as a partner with you in finishing your quilt top. I am by appointment only. The best way to reach me is by email.
More than 150 years ago a pioneer family left a sign on their Kentucky door reading "Gone to Texas."
As did so many of their generation, Robert and Lizzie Carpenter packed up their belongings and headed West to find a better life. They chose the North Central Texas prairie to set up housekeeping. And, it was here, on their newly built homestead, that Lizzie began writing her journal, which she kept from 1857 to 1882. Chronicled within its pages are the details of pioneer life - including her deep love for quiltmaking.
In 2007, Lizzi's great-great granddaughter and award winning quiltmaker and historian, Betsy Chutchian, discovered the journal, now housed at Haggard Library in Plano, Texas, and was delighted to discover they shared a common passion for quiltmaking.
I had the honor of quilting eight of the twelve quilts in this book.
Inspired by their love of antique quilts, the Texas-based 19th-Century Patchwork Divas is a block exchange group that recreates quilted treasures of the past with 1800s reproduction fabric. The group's co-founders, Betsy Chutchian and Carol Staehle, have assembled a captivating collection of quilts from past block exchanges in this book. The 19th Century Patchwork Divas have displayed their quilts in specials exhibits at the International Quilt Festival in Houston, and then traveled to Chicago, Pittsburgh and Long Beach. They have also displayed at the Quilter's Guild of Arlington, TX and The Trinity Valley Quilt Guild quilt shows as well as the Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum in Golden, Colorado.
I have the privilege to quilt for several of the 19th Century Patchwork Divas and I quilted 16 of the quilts in this wonderful book.
"From frontier times in the Republic of Texas until today, Texans have been making gorgeous quilts. Karoline Patterson Bresenhan and Nancy O'Bryant Puentes documented the first 150 years of the state's rich heritage of quilt art in Lone Stars: A Legacy of Texas Quilts, 1836-1936 and Lone Stars II: A Legacy of Texas Quilts, 1936-1986 . Now in Lone Stars III , they bring the Texas quilt story into the twenty-first century, presenting two hundred traditional and art quilts that represent "the best of the best" quilts created since 1986. (Series Charles N Prothro Texana)"
I quilted The Triple Four Patch for my customer Marilyn Mowry on page 298-299. You can purchase this book from www.amazon.com.
Once again, Betsy Chutchian, award-winning quiltmaker and author of Gone to Texas, lets us in her great-great grandmother's life and shares more of her journals written over a 25-year period from 1857 to 1882 – stories that capture the spirit of life on the Texas prairie.
Included are 14 projects inspired by Lizzie's writing that illustrate pioneer life – friendship, chores, the help and guests, insects and pastimes. I feel privileged have quilted several of the quilts in this wonderful book.
A colorful patch of pumpkins, a fanciful bat make-do pincushion and more cast a bewitching spell in this celebration of autumn joys. Whether you love fall for its warm palette of hues or its festive celebration of Halloween, you will find the perfect project to warm your home throughout the season.
Designer Betsy Chutchian has assembled a diverse array of creative treats, including quilts, a striking orange-and-black diamond table runner and whimsical wool appliqué chair pads.


Aged Solerati clay roof tiles are created by pressing and firing of natural clay tiles at over 1000 degrees Celsius. As each batch of tiles are made from varies clay deposits and fired to such extreme temperatures there will be different shades of colour throughout the manufacturing process.
These different shades create a look unique to other roofs which owners are attracted to. When fitting these tiles the different shades can be blended over the expanse of the roof as can be seen on the aged Lucentum roof in the photo.
Small firing blemishes are inherent to varying degrees according to different calcium deposits in the clay. There will at times be small touch points created by transport.
These will not detract from weatherproofing performance of the tiles and should not be seen as a product fault.

Where in Britain? 10,000 Syrian Refugees Resettled in the UK
Refugees from Syria who have arrived in the UK over the past two and a half years have been brought to different areas to resettle. Four times more Syrian refugees have been offered support in Scotland than in Greater London. While 300 more of the new arrivals have began to rebuild their future in Northern Ireland than the entire east of England. The Mosaic Initiative team asks how this affects the new communities and are there systems and services in place to support them? How have these decisions on location been made? We call for this information to be made more readily available. The government set up the Syrian Vulnerable Persons Resettlement Scheme (SVPRS) with the promise of "equitable distribution" of homes to offer newly arriving Syrian refugees, but this is hard to define as is the affect that it has on their lives due to their location.

The Dharma Village really came as a surprise. The school is rather empty (except for a few books and chairs), but the village next to it, although really small, holds a mysterious aura. Then in the middle of nowhere, what was this modern surveillance camera for? For sure, there is a reason.

GTA IV not a hardware mover?
Well this is a suprise, the latest NPD sales stats are in and they are much lower than expected.
As always the Wii did very well and was the only console to be in line with predictions by selling 714,200 units in April….
The Xbox 360 retook second spot, but only just, with sales of 188,000 compared to the 187,100 units sold for the PS3.
Nintendo also did very well in the handheld department selling 414,800 units compared to the 192,700 units sold for the PSP.
Nintendo has become a monster and it really is suprising that they are still not getting the games and media attention of the 360 and PS3… Face it people, the Wii and DS can no longer be called a fad. They are the only truly next gen consoles according to the sales figures.

Deus Ex Human Revolution review
4 Sep, 2014	 | Reviews > Video Games
Does Deus Ex Human Revolution deliver on the promise of the original? Will it do for yellow what The Matrix did for green?
I was beyond excited to get my hands on a copy of Deus Ex 3: Human revolution. As it happens, although I'm a huge fan of RPGs and thinky shooters like Half-Life and Bioshock, I'm a Deus Ex virgin. But I knew there are huge fans of the Deus Ex games out there, so I tried to think from the point of view of diehard fans as well as newcomers. This is one of the most critically-acclaimed game franchises of all time – a lot of eyes will be on Deus Ex 3, willing it to succeed and praying it won't fall.
Buy Deus Ex Human Revolution on PC / PS3 / XBOX 360
You begin Deus Ex Human Revolution…
In Deus Ex 3 you play Adam Jensen, an ex-cop security specialist hired by the Sarif biotech corp. The world you inhabit is a technologically-advanced dystopia. Global corporations with the power of governments control civilisation, and huge advances in genetics, robotics, information and biotechnology mean that anyone who can pay for it can become a next-level human through 'augmentation'. The world seethes with politics: There are plenty of 'purist' human groups who are fanatically opposed to the augmentation of the transhumanists.
As Adam Jensen, your task is to protect Sarif industries on a day of historic governmental hearings. Despite your best efforts, superhuman mercenaries attack the buildings and murder Sarif's top scientists, nearly killing you in the process. Whether you're pro augmentation or not, turning you into a cyborg is the only way to save your life.
You've been resurrected at a critical moment in humanity's history. Your decisions will determine humanity's fate. Who will you side with? Who will you save? Will you be brutish and lethal, or a ghost, operating stealthily behind the scenes? The choices reside with you. What kind of person are you? What kind of future will you help to create?
Deus Ex Human Revolution gameplay
You're hit in the face with choices early on, and there's plenty of storyline to chew on. But the real beauty of Deus Ex 3 is the gameplay. It should appeal to the fans who loved the first game and wept with disappointment at the second.
Deus Ex missions require you to stay alive, and in Human Revolution, staying alive isn't boringly easy (at least on normal setting – you do, of course, get the option of casual gameplay). You can only be shot about 3 times before you die. None of this 'ooh I've been shot 20 times I'd better take a vitamin pill'. This doesn't make the game frustrating – it just adds tension, and encourages you to think about how you want to tackle the mission.
You have a vast array of choices in both completing missions and progressing your characters.
Stealthy types: You'll want to become superhumanly good at sneaking around. Augmentations focused on cloaking (and many other forms of cunningness) will of course help. Stealthy types are more than catered for in Deus Ex 3 gameplay: You can hide, play with movable cover (I didn't – I freaked out and couldn't figure out what to do with it. I was dying enough as it was, and didn't want the indignity of dying while trying to wrestle a disposal bin), find ways around a problem via air vents, rafters and all sorts of sneaky alternatives in the terrain. You can specialise in silenced weapons, or sneak on protagonists, disable them with non-violent takedown and drag their bodies out of sight to avoid detection. The makers of Deus Ex Human Revolution promise gamers that, if you realise want to, you can get through THE WHOLE GAME without killing anyone except the main boss characters. Dear lord, that's dedicated.
Wiseguy / Mata Hari types: You love social interaction above anything and want to talk your way out of situations. Your wit and charm will get you anywhere, my friend. You may want to focus on augmentations that enhance your social skills. They'll help – a lot – and also give you conversation trees that don't exist for anyone else that hasn't specialised the way you have. Even with some of these social enhancements, there's still the element of a mini-game. You may, for instance, augment yourself to have a higher success rate at appeasing alpha types and dominating beta types. As Adam Jensen, you'll still have to figure out for yourself if that drug dealer you're talking to in the understreets of New China is an alpha type or a beta type…
Hacker types: You'll no doubt want to focus on improving your hacking skills to gain access to doors, information in secure emails, and lethal defence systems ripe for disabling and all sorts of other things that will make life easier for you. Who knows? Maybe you can even turn your enemies' defences against them… Hacking is a mini game whereby you penetrate a server while avoiding detection. It's enormously addictive and satisfying – but as the game progresses you'll need quick reflexes and quick wits.
Gung-ho types: There are plenty of guns to find, buy and loot in Deus Ex. There are a huge number of augmentations that will make you become a tank, or a lethal assassin, or any combination of fighty roles. You can get up close with your fists, or with a pistol. And, as a back-up, you might want to be a reasonable shot with a sniper rifle. You'll still have to be tactical, but yes, play your cards right and you could progress to become a death machine that stops for no-one. If that's what you really want.
You can mix and match, of course! But it's never a bad idea to boost your preferred area of expertise as much as you can. Personally I was quite into being a fighty shooty type who enjoyed a bit of sneaking but didn't augment in that direction, and who built up their social and hacking skills as the game progressed…
There is always more than one strategy. There is always more than one solution. And this leads us onto choices…
Making choices in Deus Ex Human Revolution
The actual gameplay in Deus Ex is hugely involving, but you'll also be making choices galore. Are you a lethal killer? Are you a good guy who only kills those who deserve it? You'll be making moral decisions and gameplay decisions throughout the entire game.
Yes, but is Deus Ex 3 as good as the first one?
Friends who are diehard fans say it's hard to judge, because the original Deus Ex was utterly groundbreaking – they'd never seen or played anything like it before. Deus Ex Human Revolution no longer has that precise edge, because we've experienced so many games like Metal Gear Solid, Half-Life and Bioshock since the launch of the original grandaddy of them all. But, having said that, my mates who loved the original also love my copy of Deus Ex 3, and on one eventful night played it compulsively till 5 in the morning. Lucky for me I got to have a go first…
The sheer variety of approaches to any given situation makes for enormously satisfying gameplay. The choices add depth and dimension to both gameplay and storyline, and the game is ABSOLUTELY FRIKKING BEAUTIFUL. As well as a haunting, moody soundtrack, the enviroments you'll visit – from the 'cyber renaissance' futurism of Sarif Industries to the Bladerunner gorgeousity and scuzzy alleyways of New Shanghai, are literally breathtaking. While walking Adam Jensen down a corridor, I turned to the right to look out of a corporate window – and when I saw the beauty of the view, I gasped.
The environment of the game is utterly distinctive, with a thought-out palette of rich black and golds that will leave you in no doubt you're playing something beautiful and new. I'd go so far as to say Deus Ex Human Revolution will do for yellow what The Matrix did for green.
I particularly loved the inventory screen, which was designed with a huge sense of fun. It's divided into grids, and a machine gun will take up more grid squares than a pistol, which in turn will take up more grid squares than a bottle of pills. Even though it wasn't a mini game, I got a kick out of re-arranging items on the inventory screen like a slot puzzle to discover that I could carry just one more item, after all… Apparently this inventory screen is just like the one in the original Deus Ex, so there you go… one more reason for hardcore fans to be delighted.
It's worth noting that, while I can't compare it with the original, the AI is pretty darn good in Deus Ex 3. You run away like a big girl and think the baddies aren't waiting for you? They might be. They might well be waiting for you. You may have to assume they're out for your blood, second guess where they've headed when you were out of sight, then use that intel to come up with an even more awesome plan B…
The characters are pretty good in Deus Ex, but in a way they suffer the same fate as the characters in LA Noir. There, the face detailing was so good that the limbs and torsos looked a tiny bit lumpy in comparison. Here, the environments are so utterly lush that the figures – while nicely rendered – can't help but look a tiny bit lumpy in comparison. But for at least 30 hours' of gameplay – and let's face it, we're really talking something in the region of 60-80 – that's a small price to pay.
Deus Ex 3 is absorbing, challenging, rewarding and no doubt one of the very best games coming out this year. Fantastic.

Q: Binary operator < cannot be applied to Clong in Swift I am trying to implement the following code in swift. But my i variable refuse to talk to my MAXADDRS. It says binary operator < cannot be applied to Clong in Swift. If I use CInt the problem goes away, but then I get an error on the variable i when assiginin theAddr = ip_addrs[i]
   InitAddresses();
   GetIPAddresses();
   GetHWAddresses();
   var i = CLong()
            var deviceIP = NSString()
            for (i=0; i < MAXADDRS; ++i)
            {
                var localHost = 0x7F000001;        // 127.0.0.1
                var theAddr = CLong()

                theAddr = ip_addrs[i]

                if (theAddr == 0) {return}
                if (theAddr == localHost){continue}

                NSLog("Name: %s MAC: %s IP: %s\n", if_names[i], hw_addrs[i], ip_names[i]);

                //decided what adapter you want details for
                if (strncmp(if_names[i], "en", 2) == 0)
                {
                    NSLog("Adapter en has a IP of %s", ip_names[i]);
                }
            }

            // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
        }

The MAXADDRS it intends to compare relates to the following OBC header
Source files here
http://www.chrisandtennille.com/code/IPAddress.h
http://www.chrisandtennille.com/code/IPAddress.c
My bridging header
#include "IPAddress.h"
#include "IPAddress.c"

A: #define MAXADDRS    32

is imported to Swift as
public var MAXADDRS: Int32 { get }

On the other hand, CLong is an alias for Int ("The C 'long' type.")
Therefore you need to convert all values to a common type. Since
array subscripting requires an Int index, converting MAXADDRS
to Int might be the easiest solution:
var i = 0 // Int
for (i=0; i < Int(MAXADDRS); ++i) {

}

or more simply:
for i in 0 ..< Int(MAXADDRS) {

}


Cereal manufacturers aren't getting the message their products are too high in sugar. The sugar hit in many kids' breakfast cereals has barely changed since we last looked at these products. Six cereals had even more sugar than they used to, with one packing a whopping 30 percent increase.
A nutritious breakfast is the best way for your child to start the day. Studies show breakfast is associated with a healthy body weight and better nutrient intake. In addition, children are more likely to be hungry mid-morning and snack on unhealthy foods if they skip breakfast. Skipping breakfast can also negatively impact academic performance and mood.
When we looked at breakfast cereals marketed to kids in 2008 and 2013, we found many products were high in sugar and salt, and low in fibre. Our latest survey of 50 cereals has found companies have cut the sodium but it's a different story when it comes to sugar.
To see what we found, become a paying Consumer member or log in.
We analysed the labels of 50 cereals that appeal to children using bright packaging, cartoon characters, promotional activities and sweet flavours, as well as some healthy options commonly eaten by children (such as wheat biscuits and porridge). We didn't include all brands of porridge or wheat biscuits in our survey because they all have similar nutrition information.
Where possible, we've compared the sugar, sodium and fibre content with previous surveys. We've also calculated the health star rating and used green, orange and red symbols to show the sugar and sodium in the products. A red symbol means the product is high in sugar or sodium; green means the food has low amounts of it; orange fits somewhere in between.
There's not a lot of fat or saturated fat in most of these cereals so we haven't included fat or saturated fat in our survey.
To view this section, become a paying Consumer member or log in.
GUIDE TO THE TABLE PRODUCTS are listed by health star rating in alphabetical order. HEALTH STAR RATING nc = not able to be calculated. FIBRE, SODIUM & SUGAR (per 100g) is from label information. Fibre Anot listed on packaging but provided by company. Bnot listed in previous surveys. ns = not stated. % CHANGE compared with 2008 and/or 2013 surveys.

Early B and Simple Stories invigorate #Mokete stage
2019 Kovsies Multilingual Mokete Competition winners
#Mokete a colourful celebration of language and multiculturalism
20 September 2019 | Story Rulanzen Martin | Photo Charl Devenish
The Multilingual Mokete embodies the ideals of the university to become inclusive, while promoting a multicultural environment.
The first Kovsies Multilingual Mokete was a celebration of language and culture; it is a commitment by the University of the Free State (UFS) to nurture an attitude of inclusiveness and acceptance on all three of its campuses. Hosted on the Bloemfontein Campus on Wednesday 18 September 2019, the mokete was a hype of activity with drama, poetry, music, dance, and scrumptious cultural cuisine.
"This initiative was coordinated to promote and celebrate all our regional languages, but also important – our regional cultures." This was the words of Prof Francis Petersen, Rector and Vice-Chancellor of the UFS, on opening the first Kovsies Multilingual Mokete.
The Mokete stage came alive with the impeccable voices of our students and staff as they personified multilingualism through the spoken word in the form of poems, the drama production, Dogg's Hamlet in the Scaena, praise songs, and dance. A mural featuring individual artworks was also on display during the mokete, as well as a screening of the movie, The Visitor.
The Mokete was concluded by Simple Stories, a band of former Kovsie students, with Early B as the main act. The People's Choice Award winner of the day was Soetbravado, winners of the UFS SingOff competition.
"I think the inaugural Multilanguage festival is full of potential. Tolerance and understanding of different cultures are what I see here. I think it's amazing and I would recommend the UFS to continue with it," says Jon-Dylon Petersen, former SRC member and final-year Quantity Surveying and Construction Management student.

Mokete part of UFS project to foster sense of belonging
The mokete is furthermore presented in support of the Integrated Transformation Plan (ITP) work streams on Teaching and Learning, Student and Staff Experience, and the Multi-Campus Model. "As a university, we are proud of the many languages and cultures which form part of this university. It creates a level of diversity and it is through diversity that we can build strength within the university," says Prof Petersen.
This initiative of multilingualism is part of the university's language policy, which promotes a sense of belonging and acceptance among people. "We want to create opportunities and platforms and campuses where everyone should feel welcome, and to create the ability for each culture and language group to also learn from one another."
The ultimate goal is to use the multilingual initiatives to prepare our students for the multilingual and multicultural world, but also to stay connected to our own heritage and background.

Mokete should become an annual event
The reaction to the mokete was overwhelmingly positive and it was well received in the Kovsie community. "It's a beautiful experience to see how academics can come to a university and showcase not only different languages, but different cultures; it's something which should continue in the spirit of ubuntu and diversity, and can maybe become a national festival," says Almondreaux Williams, third-year LLB student.
Not only was the mokete a celebration of multilingualism at the UFS; it was also a platform to express different cultures in the form of traditional attire.
''It's getting people together. All of us, all the cultural groups are here together. The performances were awesome," says Sibongile Witbooi, a third-year Geology student and Residence Committee member for Culture at Akasia residence.

Pop producer Phil Spector has died at the age of 81 while serving a prison sentence for the murder of actor Lana Clarkson.
Music producer Phil Spector, who was famous for his "wall of sound" recordings which transformed the sound of pop music in the '60s, has died the age of 81.
Spector was serving a 19-years-to-life sentence for the 2003 murder of Hollywood actor Lana Clarkson, which he was convicted of in 2009.
His death was confirmed by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, who said the music producer had died of "natural causes at 6.35pm on Saturday 16 January 2021".
Media reports have said the music producer died after being diagnosed with Covid-19 in prison four weeks ago, The Guardian reports.
Spector had worked with Ike and Tina Turner, the Beatles and the Righteous Brothers, and also influenced music by the Beach Boys and Bruce Springsteen.
Between 1961 and 1965, he produced 20 top 40 hits.

Q: Retriving the value of a registry string in a batch script In a batch file, I'm reading the value of 'ProfileImagePath' like so...
 for /f "delims=" %%a in ('REG QUERY "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList\%thisusersid%" /v ProfileImagePath') do set "thisuserprofile=%%a"

This populates the variable %thisuserprofile% with the following....
 ProfileImagePath    REG_EXPAND_SZ    C:\Users\joebloggs

How do i go about instead JUST getting the value, so...
%THISUSERPROFILE%="C:\Users\joebloggs" for example?
I know there is already a windows variable for the users profile, however the parent script is running in the system context, so i have to go the long way around, ascertaining the users SID and profile location etc.
Thanks in advance! :)

A: This was how i did it...
 for /f "tokens=2*" %%a in ('REG QUERY "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList\%USERSID%" /v ProfileImagePath') do set "thisuserprofile=%%~b"

echo %thisuserprofile%
Output is just the profile path :)


This can be a tricky call sometimes. If this is the first injection, you can bill both the E/M and injection. If this is a repeat injection with nothing else evaluated and no change in plan of care, I'd bill just the injection. Sometimes my providers will document the patient has worsening pain, but all they really meant is that the last injection has worn off so the pain has been getting worse due to that. That would not constitute a separate E/M. If there are other issues being evaluated or a new injury (not just an exacerbation of the condition brought on by too much activity), a separate E/M may be warranted.


Home / Independent Sales Rep Agreement / How to Set Up an Agreement With a Sales Rep – 5 Key Issues to Handle BEFORE You Hire!
1. Define the Territory: Find out the general territory the sales rep usually represents. Ask what states or geographic location is included. Do you already have another rep in one of those states or location? If there is a conflict you must discuss it and make some resolution as to which rep will receive commission for a sale. If your rep has a booth at a trade show establish what your policy is for out of territory commission. Let the rep know in writing of any established House Accounts.
2. Establish the Commission Rate: Sales reps generally ask for anywhere from 7% to 20%. It is best to consider what the sales rep can do for you and try a test out for a season. If the rep is well established the commission rate may be on the high end. And if the rep is willing to pioneer your line and help you to become an established brand then it is well worth the commission rate. Do be sure you have this built into your pricing model.
3. When is the commission due? You will want establish payment terms. Ideally you will want to pay out commission when you are paid by your customer. However, most reps want to be paid within 15 days of the when the goods are shipped. They have done their job and deserve to be paid. They will in general require commission on a minimum of 85% of any order that is credit approved. So in case you are unable to ship an order they still get commission because they have done the work.
5. Who pays for the samples? Obviously a sales rep needs to have samples and marketing materials so she can show your line. Establish in advance who pays for these. You can have them returned at the end of the season or offer a significant discount off wholesale to the rep which can be subtracted from commissions.

I am going to buy a GX. I have a chance to buy a 2004. I was kind of set on a 2005 but the price difference is about 4000. What are the major difference between the 04 and 05. The 04 has nav and rear dvd. Thanks.
One more thing. The 04 has a very dark grey interior (not the sports package). I have not seen this before, all the grey I have seen has been a light grey. Anyone know if this was an 04 think.
I have an 04 with the dark grey leather, and I love the look. The biggest difference between the 04 and 05 was the addition of variable valve timing to the engine, resulting in a boost of the horsepower from 235 to, I think its 270. I havn't driven a 2005 to see the difference, but I've never found a lack of power in my 04 either.
Other then that, there were no significant changes.
I too have an '04 with the dark grey interior. Love it. In addition to the additional horsepower, I think you have to pay extra for the 3rd row seats, whereas it was a no cost option on the '04.
By the way, I have also not noticed any lack of power on the '04.
