And we're back! Romhacking scared me for a bit, with this project.
SRW V gets released (with a good translation, at that, I hear, and easy difficulty)...
Wait - our 60% was the cause for the RHDN ruckus?
will this have any gameplay changes added on or is it just a translation?
i asked this before and im sorry to ask again, but does anyone know how the mech stats are stored so i can edit them? i'd like to edit the starting mech stats so they're all relatively powerful, but i can't figure out how the values are stored
Can you put an additional animations on Map Attacks where all the targeted units appear getting damage on a Attack Animations just like in the GBA and DS version? Oh and a faster death animations please
One more big batch has been finalized, pushing the completion percentage just a bit over 75%! Yay!

The Life Lucy Knew / Karma Brown
Musique audio
Edité par Audible Studios On Brilliance. [S.l.] - 2018
After hitting her head, Lucy Sparks awakens in the hospital to a shocking revelation: the man she's known and loved for years - the man she recently married - is not actually her husband. In fact, they haven't even spoken since their breakup four years earlier. The happily-ever-after she remembers in vivid detail - right down to the dress she wore to their wedding - is only one example of what her doctors call a false memory: recollections Lucy's mind made up to fill in the blanks from the coma. When the life Lucy believes she had slams against the reality she's been living for the past four years, she must make a difficult choice about which life she wants to lead, and who she really is.

Ellen DeGeneres returns to stand-up comedy after 15 years
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Ellen DeGeneres is going back to her roots, launching her first stand-up comedy tour in 15 years in a limited run of shows on the US West Coast in August.
The TV talk show host and actress will visit three cities over eight nights, promoters Live Nation said.
DeGeneres, 60, began her career in the 1980s as a stand-up comedian in her home town of New Orleans before launching her comedy show "Ellen".
States with her "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" winning 30 Emmys. She also twice hosted the annual Oscars ceremony and the Emmy awards show.
DeGeneres did not say why she had decided to return to stand-up after so many years but the shows will form the basis of a Netflix comedy special to be streamed later in 2018.
Her stand-up tour will visit San Diego, San Francisco and Seattle from Aug. 10-23.

How time flies. We are now onto the last TNF 100 Progressive Run before the TNF 100 Challenge in October. This time round, there were more participants compared to the first one in August despite the rather steep cost of taking part in what was a routine run for most along a by now very familiar route.
After a short briefing by Dirt Traction, the hired organiser, the runners took off. Again for me, I had to again contend myself with snapping pictures. There was an option of 2 distances, 15km and 30km and from what I could see, only a few runners choose to ran the 30km.After a wait of about 40 minutes, the first runner returned and soon the other followed.

Happy Austrian national day!
* Top layer: Salad whose name I have forgotten already* with red onions and cherry tomatoes (so tiny!) tossed in balsamico and olive oil; ovenbaked potato stars
* Bottom layer: Ovenbaked salmon and a shrimp.
* Small container: Lime aioli (bought at the supermarket deli)
Not shown: Haven't decided on a dessert for tomorrow yet.
I'm having entirely too much fun with my new cookie cutters. :D
You can also see a picture of my arrangement of the same stuff for dinner here.
*Mizune. Not Rucola. Mizune is much less bitter and tastes more like spring salad.

5 Steps to Make the Leap to Living Abroad Successfully
Maybe you've always been obsessed with living in Paris. Maybe you've always wanted to live in the Caribbean. Maybe you love Chinese food and want to go to the source. Whatever it may be, we're talking about you living abroad!
Regardless of the exact reasons, there are certain things you need to do to make the jump to living in another country other than your own.
But first…
Why would it be good for you to live abroad?
I almost don't even know how to answer this one. Why WOULDN'T you want to live in a cool place you've always dreamed about?
But to quickly answer my own question, here are some thoughts. By choosing to live abroad you'll:
- Learn about new cultures and increase your love and tolerance for people of all walks of life
- Meet cool new people and friends you didn't even know you had
- Improve your communication skills
- Possibly learn a new language
- Become super intentional with what you own (escape consumerism habits)
- Try & love new foods
- Get to do the cool things your new country has to offer
- Have a never ending pile of cool pics and videos
- Help you learn about and improve yourself (maybe you need to develop your patience & flexibility for example…)
- Come home with expanded horizons and an improved perception about people and life in general
- And a million more great reasons…
Hopefully, you'll consider living abroad. In fact, it used to be something only available to the super rich.
Now with the digital age, it's becoming more and more popular. And it's not reserved for college students backpacking through Europe. Heck, I have a wife and 3 kids and we've lived outside of our own country for 4 of the last 5 years alone!
If you decide to commit, here are some questions you'll want to address first. In fact, these questions can basically serve as your checklist to get moving. Just follow the steps!
Where do you want to go? It seems pretty obvious I know. But you've got to go somewhere and with an entire world to choose from, narrowing it down can be harder than you think.
Some simple questions to ask yourself include:
- What experiences do you want to have?
- What kinds of things do you want to see?
- Do you want to learn a new language?
- What kind of food do you want to eat?
- What do you want to learn? (If you want to learn how to be a samurai, Japan might be more appropriate than Greenland)
- How close do you want to be to friends and family?
Just think about your values and what's most important to you. Then think, does your country of choice line up with your values?
Sometimes you'll come up with multiple countries that meet your requirements. In this case, it's helpful to look at a map of the world and do a sort or "process of elimination" exercise.
When we decided to move back to Cozumel, Mexico, we started at the continent level. Antartica, Asia, and Africa were the first to go. Then South America was also out. We looked hard at Australia (actually, New Zealand – sorry my Aussie friends, soon enough we'll get to Australia!).
Then we looked at Europe. We boiled it down to Spain versus Mexico. Obviously, Mexico beat out Spain… for now.
By the process of elimination and basing everything off of what's most important to us, we ended up in a place that we absolutely love.
You can do the same.
I might add that the Riviera Maya is a lovely place… 🙂
Once you've decided which country you're going to, you need to think about how long you'll want to be there.
In most cases, you'll have to take into account country visa requirements. Most likely, you'll be there as a guest (like, not working there) so you'll effectively be a tourist.
Every country has different lengths of time you can stay without incurring any penalties. For example, in Mexico, Colombia, and the U.K., you can stay up to 6 months on a simple tourist visa. For places like mainland Europe, it's 90 days.
In most cases, you can extend your visa time or do a simple "visa run" and come back to your desired country.
Apart from the country requirements, you have to decide how long you just plain want to be gone. If this is your first go of it, maybe start with 90 or 180 days. If you're feeling more adventurous and really want to get into the local culture, consider at least doing a year.
Oh and here's something crazy – leave it open-ended! When we came to Cozumel the first time, we had decided on staying for 6 months to try it out. Long story short, we loved it so much we stayed for 2 ½ years. And then we came back!
If you can, simply decide to NOT decide how long you'll be. Who knows, maybe you'll fall in love with your new home and want to stay…
How are you going to pay for it all? It's a question that tourists, locals, and even the government of your new country will care about also.
"What do you do for money?"
This is the number one question we get when people find out we live here. I just say, "I work online".
If you work online, then you're in luck! You're already ahead of most people. Now you just gotta go!
If you don't already work online, you have a few options.
- Set up a remote-work arrangement with your employer – this works especially well if you're work is online or computer-based. This doesn't work so well for nurses, dentists, contractors or anything where you need to be physically present to do the work.
- Save and go – decide to quit your job but before you do, save, save, save! This is what Heidi did when she went to Europe solo when she was single. She saved every penny until she had a large cushion. When the time came, she quit her job and took off to Europe for 5 weeks.
- Sell and go – if you can't save enough from your job, consider selling everything you own to finance the trip. We have some good friends here in Cozumel who actually flipped a house before taking off. It gave them the piece of mind that even though he was quitting his job, they would have money in the bank.
- Start a lifestyle business – there's absolutely no doubt that this is my favorite option. Having your own reliable source of income is what I feel the best way to make sure you've got dinero for what you need. This is one of the reasons why I put together the 60-Day Entrepreneur program. Get started with your own business and you'll never have to worry about income.
- Combo package – mix and match any of the above suggestions. When we first started our own journey 7 years ago, we had already been saving but also decided to sell everything we owned to boost our savings account.
I should note there is another option here – you can always try to get a job where you're going to live. But it's not always ideal and can sometimes complicate getting a visa and so forth. But it's something to keep in mind!
Do whatever works best for you. Just make sure you have at least double of what you think you'll need just in case.
If you're like most people in the western world, you have a lot of stuff. You may not realize it because it's accumulated over years. Chances are, most of the stuff you have you don't even need or use.
Just like with your income, you have some options with your stuff. You can:
- Sell everything
- Sell some things and put the rest in storage
- Bring everything with you
When we left California this past year to head back to Mexico, we got rid of everything. I'm not kidding. The only things we saved were Heidi's wedding dress, my 7mm wetsuit, photos, some books, and tax information. That's really it!
Everything we owned suddenly got stuffed into a set of suitcases. It was great! It really feels good to be free from stuff!
But what about the bigger stuff like cars and houses?
If you're not driving your car to the new country (if you even can), sell it! Or let a friend or family member use or whatever. When Heidi's cousin left for Mexico on his first 6 month stint, he sold his car. It also helped boost his savings.
But what about your house? If you rent, this one is easy. You just leave when your lease is up or get out of your lease early. Done.
If you own your home, then it's a bit more challenging but you still have options. You can:
- Sell your house
- Rent it out
- Get housesitters
- Leave it as is and have someone check on it from time-to-time
What about your mail?
Hopefully you're already living "green" and get most stuff digitally anyway. But with my own social commentary aside, there will inevitably be physical mail that comes. And occasionally it's important.
One option is to get a PO Box and have someone you know to get the mail for you. Another option is to use a service like Traveling Mailbox or Earth Class Mail. Or you can always route everything to a friend or family member you trust.
With the stuff out of the way, now you have to…
If you've done all of the above, you're already 90% of the way there! Now comes the last-minute but kind of fun stuff.
For starters, you can spend your time doing research on your new country. Before we came to Cozumel for the first time, I think I watched every single YouTube that had the word "Cozumel" in it. I also hung out on Google street view trying to get a feel for the place.
You can also grab any other items you might need. I'm not trying to encourage you to have more stuff in your life but you also want to be prepared. Will you need warm clothing? What about a new GoPro or camera? Do you have what you need for work?
You can also get mentally & emotionally ready. Spend time with any friends and family you want to. Get in any last-minute things you love from your native country (like cotton candy from Disneyland… mmmmmm)
If you're going to be learning a new language, get a head start learning verbs and nouns on DuoLingo. Get on Google maps and check out your new city. Learn about how you'll get around, the fun stuff there is to do, and places to eat.
If you take this post seriously, which I hope you do, I wish you the best of luck! Becoming an internationalist by living abroad is borderline magical for your lifestyle.
One final insider's tip: be sure to be flexible and ready for adventure. Basically, as soon as you leave your own country, things are not as easy as you may be used to. That's where the learning and fun kicks in.

On Sunday, for the first time in almost two weeks, Corey Seager was an active baseball player. He took batting practice. He took ground balls. He took a seat before a group of reporters, happily.
"I haven't smiled in a while," Seager said. "It's nice to smile again."
The back strain that sidelined Seager for the National League Championship Series appears healed. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said he is "very confident" Seager will be back at shortstop for Game 1 of the World Series on Tuesday.
"He said he felt as good he has in weeks," Roberts said.
Seager remained in Los Angeles for treatment while the Dodgers were in Chicago for the final three games of the NLCS. He has moved out of his summer rental home, so he watched the Dodgers clinch their World Series berth from a Los Angeles hotel room.
The normally reserved Seager particularly enjoyed the grand slam hit by Enrique Hernandez.
"That was probably one of the few times I screamed in my hotel room," Seager said.
Roberts would not say who would be removed from the Dodgers' roster to make room for Seager. He did indicate the Dodgers might keep Charlie Culberson, who replaced Seager on the NLCS roster, as insurance, or an option should the Dodgers wish to use Seager as a designated hitter in Houston.
Culberson hit .455 in the NLCS but said he would be delighted to see Seager reclaim shortstop.
"We need Corey out there," Culberson said. "He's an MVP-type player."
The Dodgers led the major leagues in payroll, but their front-office creativity and steadfast meritocracy reveals itself in interesting ways. Of the nine players in Tuesday's projected starting lineup, five made less than $1 million this season: Seager, first baseman Cody Bellinger, outfielders Enrique Hernandez and Chris Taylor, and catcher Austin Barnes.
Same four, once more
The Dodgers plan to deploy their starters in the World Series in the same order as they did in the NLCS: Clayton Kershaw in Game 1, Rich Hill in Game 2, Yu Darvish in Game 3 and Alex Wood in Game 4.
The Dodgers crunch every number possible, but Roberts said the team did not want to overthink the decision.
"Ultimately, we just kind of defaulted to, 'It's been working,' " he said.
Ball dude
Culberson caught the line drive that marked the final out of the NLCS. He kept the ball, but not before asking Roberts whether he should give it to closer Kenley Jansen.
"He'll get another one," Roberts told Culberson.
In what place of honor in his home has Culberson put the ball?
"A closet," he said, "so my kids won't get it."
Culberson has three children. The oldest is 5; the youngest is seven months.
Closing time
Roberts said he wouldn't hesitate to use Jansen for a six-out save. And he expects that possibility to influence how both he and Houston manager A.J. Hinch approach the final innings of tight games.
"Your mind-set is different knowing that you have a guy like that at the back end of the bullpen," Roberts said. "You don't know when the manager is going to use him. So you have to sometimes be a little bit more aggressive than you might like to be, especially in a postseason setting.
"To have him on our side it makes life a lot simpler for me."

The Warren sleeping up to 4 guests
In a quiet residential area, yet only a short distance from Whitstable's centre, this house is a great base for a holiday along the coast.
Ground Floor:
Living room: With electric coal-effect fire, 40" Freeview TV and French doors leading to garden.
Dining room.
Kitchen: With electric cooker, microwave, fridge/freezer and washing machine.
Shower room: With shower cubicle and toilet.
First Floor:
Bedroom 1: With double bed and en-suite toilet.
Bedroom 2: With twin beds.
Gas central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Enclosed lawned garden with sitting-out area, garden furniture and barbecue. Bike store. Private parking for 2 cars. No smoking.
This semi-detached house is ideally located in a quiet residential area on the outskirts of Whitstable. Bring your bikes and cycle into the town, drive or catch the bus down to the harbour where they land the world famous Whitstable oysters. Here, as in many English seaside resorts during Napoleonic times, the smugglers once ruled. Stashing away their contraband, which included an illegal trade in tobacco and spirits, they then used the plethora of alley ways, including 'Squeeze Gut Alley' (take a look and you will see how it got its name!), as escape routes. Hire a bike if you don't have one and then cycle the Crab Winkle Way, which is almost 7 miles of traffic free route along the old disused railway line to Canterbury. The trail is also also suitable for children.
Whitstable has a vibrant, contemporary arts scene, and worth a visit is the Whitstable Museum and Gallery, home to touring and permanent exhibitions. On a bright and sunny day, head towards the beach or stroll towards Tankerton Slopes, which is dotted with little wooden beach huts on the grassy banks that slope towards the shingle. Nature lovers can visit Blean Woods Nature Reserve and the Wildwood Discovery Park, and no trip to the area would be complete without exploring the historic city of Canterbury with its magnificent cathedral. Golf and fishing can also be found locally, and there are good road and rail connections to the surrounding area. Beach 2 miles. Shop, pub and restaurant ½ mile.

SPOILER ALERT!!!! If you haven't read Kill River, I highly recommend you stop reading now, because we're about to get into some serious spoiler territory. If you have already read the book, thank you thank you thank you, you are one of the coolest people on Earth.
Okay, here we go. The main inspiration for the water park in Kill River, aka Kaptain Smiley's Thrill River, is Water World in Colorado. There are also some areas of the park that exist at another water park called Schlitterbahn, in New Braunfels, Texas, near San Antonio. The picnic area where they set their stuff, the real river, and the Dead Man's Drop ride are all down in Texas. I also pictured the park to be more woodsy and shady like it is down in Texas. Maybe next year I'll take a drive down there and see if I can grab some pictures.
Oh, also the Gold Mine Tunnel came almost completely from my imagination. There is a dark ride at Water World called Voyage to the Center of the Earth with dinosaurs in it, I imagined the tunnel walls all rocky like the walls in there, but the layout of the ride, the decorations in the tunnel, and the two metal doors were all made up.
Anyway, I digress, here are some pics I took today of some of the rides that inspired me.
So these four slides are called River Country at Water World and each one has a different name. I imagined that Cyndi and Stacy rode the two on the left, and Brad and Zack rode the two on the right. Also I didn't really picture any of the line switchbacks in Thrill River. The one with the tunnel is the one Brad rode, and somewhere in that dark tunnel is where he disappeared. Later Stacy finds his body floating on a tube in this pool near this edge. She lifts up his head, and that's when "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" starts playing. Obviously those huge poles for the gondolas in the background aren't in the book.
Right next to the Ragin' Rivers, would be the two Duelin' Rivers, they're actually called the Cimarron River and the Thunder River at Water World.
Here are some pics of the path leading up to the right two Ragin' Rivers, and the Duelin' Rivers.
Here is the slow beginning of the ride, where the two Duelin' Rivers branch off. I took this picture on next to the bridge that goes up over one of them, just like in the book.
This is a really important spot in Kill River, the fountain at the start of the Duelin' Rivers. The concrete edge of the pool there is where Zack gets his head smashed. Cyndi also hides from the killer up behind that fountain, then gets down to leave, and the killer pops up out of the water and fully reveals himself to her for the first time. In the park in the book, that picket fence wasn't there, and there was a stack of tubes.
Just off to the left of this picture is the bathroom area. Sorry, I didn't take a picture of that, people would probably think I was a total creeper if they saw me taking pictures of the entrance to bathrooms. I guess if you ever get a chance to go to Water World you'll be able to go into the bathrooms and see what they're like in real life.
Here are some steps leading up to a random room right at the park entrance. I have no idea what's in there, it's for employees only, but this is what I imagined the stairway leading up to the control room looks like. In the book there's less rock and more dirt and pine needles underneath those stairs. The wrought iron fence is also a lot farther away from the stairs.
One last picture for today. This is The Lazy River, at Water World it's also called The Lazy River, and I think that's become more of a generic term nowadays so I just kept the name the same. Just about everytime I go near the Lazy River now, I say, "Uh-huh, the Lazy River. What, do they have signs over the bathrooms that say Shit River?" That's probably one of my absolute favorite lines in the whole book. Oh, and that cliff where the lifeguard is standing is the spot where Stacy dies.
That's all I've got for now. I meant to get out to Water World in May like I usually do, but this year has been so crazy with house projects and finishing up work for my next book, and travelling to Maine that I really haven't had time. Darla and I have a few more tickets though, and we'll probably go at least one more time this year. Next time I'll bring the underwater camera and take some shots on some of the rides to give you a better feeling for them.
Well, that's it for now, I'll post again hopefully in a few weeks and have some more cool pictures to share. Thanks again for reading Kill River, you guys rock!

My mother lost her battle with Multiple Myeloma last Monday. Over the past few years I had been looking around for information about what to expect. I thought of sharing my mothers story as it might comfort to some of the loved ones of people with multiple myeloma.
Two and a half years ago, my mother was having excruciating pain in her left pelvis and thigh. On a thorough examination and diagnostic tests, she was found to be suffering from Multiple Myeloma stage III B. She was treated with 16 shots of Bortezomib. She was able to take the treatment without too much of problems. However, the pain in her pelvis was unbearable. For that 10 fractions of radiation therapy were administered. This alleviated the pain to a large extent but due to weak bones, she needed a walker to be mobile. She was in remission for 1 and a half years. The diagnostic tests showed that MM was not present. However, she developed some other complications like pulmonary embolism and had to hospitalized 4-5 times for chest infection / breathing problems. It seemed that it was a combination of embolism and pneumonia. To be honest, a few of these times, she was in pretty bad shape but bounced back.
The period till one year after her last hospitalization was mostly trouble free. Although, MM did reappear early this year, but the oncologist advised that until there are some symptoms, there is no need to start treatment. In August she started having increased level of bone pain and felt uncomfortable. On advise of oncologist, her chemotherapy was restarted. She was given just one shot of Bortezomib but just three days later she developed severe breathing problem. I took her to emergency section of hospital. She was treated for 9 days for pneumonia.
On coming back home, she was fine for the first two weeks. I thought once she has regained some strength we can resume the chemotherapy. But beginning third week, her appetite reduced. By the end of week, she was almost being force feed. Moreover, she was getting drowsy and talking incoherently.
I decided to take her back to hospital. Doctors initially felt that she just needs to be kept under observation for 1-2 days. But gradually her condition worsened. Her calcium level went high and protein level was alarmingly high. Her renal function got compromised due to stress on kidney by over-production of proteins. In this case the small tubules of the kidneys become blocked and their efficiency at removing waste gets severely impaired. She probably was also suffering from Hypercalcaemia. She was given dialysis and Bortezomib shot on the second night of her stay. But her condition did not improve. She was taken into intensive care unit on third day.
She was feed powdered meal using Ryles tube and given chemotherapeutic medicines. She was undergoing dialysis almost every two days. Although, her calcium and protein levels dropped but her kidney function did not resume. After 3 more days she lost consciousness. The doctors informed that the end is near unless something miraculous happens.
Her pneumonia had become refractory (resistant) to treatment and she required quite high level of oxygen. On her last day, doctors asked me if she should be put on ventilator. Seeing her condition and given the fact that her infections were not improving, I decided not to put additional pain. The doctor did not give more than two hours. My mother waged her last battle in a dignified manner. She fought for 8 long hours. In the end, she went away peacefully, oblivious to all machinations being done to resuscitate her till the last moment. Her children were with her when she passed away and together we prayed for her.
I'm really proud of her. She bear all the pain and pricks of cancer treatment with dignity. Her sense of humor was intact as long as her mind held out. In fact, she often used to crack jokes about her funeral. I had read that in last stages of MM, there is excruciating pain as bones become brittle. My mother did not had to bear that pain as she did not live long enough to go to that stage. Although, I wanted my mother to live longer but I am satisfied that her end was calm and peaceful.
I feel relieved on telling the story of my mother. It would help me in grieving. I hope it will comfort some of you in knowing that death from Multiple Myeloma can be less traumatic than from a lot of other causes.

If you are a landlord, then like most people, you may regard the cost of insurance as a necessary expense but at the same time, something that you may wish to spend as little on as possible. Looking out for low cost landlords insurance therefore may only be natural.
One possible problem with products branded as low cost landlords insurance though is that the attractive price tag may have been achieved at the cost of the levels of cover provided.
Just looking at price alone therefore may tell you little that you may need to know about the protection offered. Looking carefully through the policy terms and conditions may be the only way that you may be able to satisfy yourself that your policy does what you need it to do in terms of helping you protect your livelihood as a landlord.
(We understand that what may be cheap let property insurance cover for you may not appear cheap for another landlord and that it is the level of protection offered rather than the price, which may be the most important factor.)
This may not be as much of a time consuming task as you may at first think. Using our services for example, may help since we may be able to provide you with landlord insurance quotes only for policies which match your particular requirements.
All you then have to do is to choose the one that appears to you to be the most appropriate.
Using our service we may also be able to help you find the cheap unoccupied property cover that may allow you to maintain the level of cover that you need for your property while it is empty, ensuring that you have a low cost solution but not at the expense of compromising on the cover provided.
You may typically need unoccupied property cover if your property is empty for a period of 30 days or more, irrespective if whether yours is a let property or is normally owner-occupied.
Discounted premiums
One way of helping achieve your aim of low cost landlords insurance, may be to review some landlords insurance quotes with a view to finding those products where you may be able to influence the price of your premium by accepting a higher voluntary excess – landlords insurance discounts of up to 40% may be available in some cases.

Description: An error occurred during the compilation of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific error details and modify your source code appropriately.
Compiler Error Message: CS1056: Unexpected character '$'
The problem was that I did not do the following step. The site was going step-by-step all the way from version 8.2 to 11. If I understand correctly a new version 10 install doesn't need this. Hopefully this helps someone else.
Below was taken from the Kentico 11 upgrade doc:
Required .NET Compiler Platform
Kentico 11 requires the .NET Compiler Platform ("Roslyn") compiler to run. Installations of Kentico 10 or newer contain the Microsoft.CodeDom.Providers.DotNetCompilerPlatform NuGet package by default, which provides the required functionality.
However, if your project is upgraded from Kentico 9 or older, you may be missing the package. In these cases, you need to install the package before applying the upgrade:
Open your Kentico solution in Visual Studio.
Right-click the main web project in the Solution Explorer and select Manage NuGet Packages.
Install the Microsoft.CodeDom.Providers.DotNetCompilerPlatform NuGet package (version 1.0.2 or newer).
Can you provide a little more information?
Like what actual file gave this error? did you look at the Line 274 of that? etc.
Source Error:
Source File: c:\CMS Projects_K10Upgrades_Free\K10Upgrades_sites\K10Upgrades_sites\backwatergamblersnew.com\httpdocs\CMS\App_Code\CMSModules\Content\Extenders\ContentEditTabsControlExtender.cs Line: 276
Here is the error. It was being stripped because of the tags.
Line 274: private void HandleContentCheckBox(List<UITabItem> items)
Line 275: {
Line 276: var script = $@"
Line 277:var IsCMSDesk = true;
Line 278:function ShowContent(show) {{
I'd suggest getting a hold of Kentico Support vs. posting on the Q&A mainly because Kentico 11 was just released yesterday and this could very well be a bug and Support doesn't monitor the Q & A's, not to mention your post is very vague.
Considering the V10 looks like the below, i would see if for some reason "String.Format(" got replaced with "$" for that page.
private void HandleContentCheckBox(List<UITabItem> items)
var script = String.Format(
@"var IsCMSDesk = true;
function ShowContent(show) {{
document.getElementById('{0}').style.display = show ? 'block' : 'none';
}}", pnlContent.ClientID);
ScriptHelper.RegisterClientScriptBlock(Control.Page, typeof(string), "UserInterfaceEditTabsControlExtender", ScriptHelper.GetScript(script));
The error might be due to the compiler version being use since newer versions of c# support in place variables using the $ to prefix the string and then placing variables in curly brackets. ie.:
var date = DateTime.Now;
var dateString = $"The current date and time is {date}";

Mental Health
Chapter four, and then some.
Principal Brink was going to take control of a bad situation, one which wasn't really anyone's fault, and he was going to do something simple which would make everyone happy. He hated the kid, but had no idea why, and hated hating anyone. Out of sight, though, meant out of mind.
The kid had to go, and the principal had memorized the pitch from the brochure of the nearby charter school. He had done a little research, found the other school to be rather bland, if perhaps slightly more experimental than the average elementary or middle school. He thought (and felt guilty for thinking) that he would probably have tried to convince the kid's parents to send him to even an unpleasant, authoritarian place. But no point thinking in hypotheticals; there was a place to send the kid, no one would be hurt by this decision, and the principal could be a sane person again.
He had the receptionist call the kid's parents to make an appointment.
The next morning, Principal Brink had to practice in the mirror for a solid half hour, but eventually he was able to smile in all the right places, in a manner which reflected none of the puzzling ill will he felt so deeply. His voice held to an even tenor of pleasant and bland good humor, and he felt that he was ready to face the kid's parents.

Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
On August 21st, 1940, a German warship sank an English freighter, the Anglo-Saxon, in the mid Atlantic. The German ship, the Widder, was part of a class of converted merchant ships known as surface raiders, warships that would disguise themselves as harmless vessels from neutral countries and prey upon Allied shipping. escaped in its jolly boat and embarked on what would become one of the longest open boat voyages in recorded history. Within a few weeks, only two men lived: Bob Tapscott and Roy Widdicombe. On September 24th, they made the last entry in their scant log: All water and biscuits gone, but still hoping to make land. For the remaining 37 days they subsisted on rain, seaweed, minute sea creatures and, of course, the dwindling reserves their bodies retained. They contemplated suicide, fought with each other and weathered a three-day hurricane. On 30th October they landed in the Bahamas after sailing more than 2700 miles. preserved at Mystic Seaport, America's leading maritime museum, until 1997 when it was returned to England. It is now the central object in the Battle of the Atlantic exhibition at London's Imperial War Museum.
"In the darkness of 21 August 1940, the freighter Ango-Saxon is ambushed by a German raider, and seven men escape in an eighteen-foot boat on the open seas. Thus begins a ten-week ordeal of hunger and thirst, death and survival"--Cover.

Welcome to Bar Back!
Ransom Old Tom Gin is a historically accurate revival of the predominant gin in fashion during the mid-1800s. A perfect gin for mixing classic cocktails, it adds a unique element to any concoction. The base herb is malted barley, which is combined with an infusion of botanicals in a high proof corn spirit. The final distillation is run through an alambic pot still in order to preserve the maximum amount of aromatics, flavor and body. Only the very best part of the distillate is used to create this old tom gin.
There are many ingredients used to create Ransom Old Tom Gin, and each one has a distinct influence on the resulting spirit. Aside from corn and malted barley, juniper berries, orange peel, lemon peel, coriander seed, cardamon pods, and angelica root are also incorporated. These key elements result in bold, flavorful spirit with robust herbal and citrus notes.

GHANA, 27th October, 2017.- The Ambassador of Cuba to Ghana, Pedro Luis Despaigne González was interviewed for the Pan African Television Channel´s Hot News Program.
In the interview, led by the journalist Eugene Edem Buzady, the Ambassador addressed a wide range of issues that had as an articulating axis the negative effects of the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the US for more than five decades to the Cuban population. In his analysis he demonstrated that the blockade is a tool used to destroy the Cuban Revolution.
The Cuban diplomat emphasized Cuba's historical relations with the African continent and with Ghana in particular. In his words he thanked the African Union for its common position against the blockade.
Other topics covered were: the historical relations between Cuba and the former Soviet Union, and the current relations with the Russian Federation; the characteristics of the Cuban political system and the popular support for the Revolution; the falsehoods about the supposed "sonic attacks" to US diplomats in Cuba. With regard to the latter aspect, the Ambassador reiterated Cuba's commitment and attachment to the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations.
The Pan African Television channel, based in Accra, has television coverage in the sub-region of West Africa, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Republic of South Africa. (Cubaminrex / Embacuba Ghana)

You would think that the city of Denver, and the State of Colorado, would be pretty far down the list with regard to terrorist hot spots. If this story is true, it would be more evidence of that being an incorrect assumption. (The fact that I haven't seen a white taxi cab driver since 1997 might be another clue, but thats another matter.)
Fittingly, Whiskey recently wrote about Sayyed Qutb, an influential radical Sunni Muslim, who was executed for his extremist activities by the Egyptian government in 1966. His brief stay in Greeley, Colorado, in the late forties, played a large role in developing his ideology. I'll repeat that: Greeley, Colorado. In 1949. Not Manhattan. Not Los Angeles. Not San Francisco.
To demonstrate Qutb's importance, Ayman al-Zawahiri, a fellow Egyptian, and Bin Laden's chief deputy, studied in Saudi Arabia under his brother, and fellow traveler, Muhammed. Osama bin Laden himself, admired, and was acquainted with Mohammed Qutb. As Whiskey said, this info can be found in Lawrence Wright's book The Looming Tower.
Do we have Greeley, Colorado, circa 1950, to blame for Al Qaeda? Well that would be silly and simplistic of course, but I find the link fascinating nonetheless. I think this antidote goes to show that people who believe in this ideology won't be satisfied with the absence of Israel and American military bases from their lands.
Occasionally, I drive through the town of about 100,000, and think about this weird connection. Today, Greeley's (a town that is about 50 miles Northeast of Denver) biggest claim to fame is a small college, and a large meatpacking presence.
The deleterious influence of illegal aliens (and the increasing gang activity that goes with it)on the town, means that Mexico and Central America are of more concern to residents, than Egypt and the Middle East.
Well, that is, until recently. I guess Somalis are now doing the jobs that Americans, and increasingly, Mexicans won't do.
a couple links on this recent trend…
A warm and fuzzy article about the joys and difficulties of assimilation.
A blog post from Gates of Vienna has a bit different POV.
Today, while walking through the lobby of a building downtown, I happened to catch some news coverage from CNN. The volume was low, but I could see from the graphics that the reporter bimbo was interviewing a member of the Congressional Black Caucus about the infamous Joe Wilson outburst.
Ya know, the guy that yelled out, "You lie!", to Barrack Obama, in the middle of his speech before Congress. Probably one of the most important issues the Republic has ever faced.
I only saw about 20 seconds worth of coverage, but from what I could gather, the Congressman supports the death penalty for Wilson.
Anyway, I contrast this, with the coverage, or lack thereof, of the brewing Acorn scandal.
Ya know, the story about members of Acorn, a virtuous and selfless community organizer group, being caught on tape giving advice about how a pimp could successful get away with running a child prostitution ring and avoid paying taxes. That one.
A group by the way, that receives public funding, and has until recently, been in line to help with the 2010 census. A group that engages in voter fraud, and judging by the videos, a lot of other illegal activity.
On the surface, this story should be right up the mass medias alley. Two young people, in their early 20's, secretly video taping an organization that doesn't hesitate to aid and abet child prostitution, illegal immigration, sex slavery, tax evasion and fraud. Sounds pretty juicy to me. Almost as juicy as a search for a dead blonde girl's killer.
The sage from ABC, Charlie Gibson, didn't even know about the story. Hadn't even heard of it until today. Hey Charlie, after you tell me about the Bush Doctrine, why don't you get on your computer and go to the Drudge Report. He doesn't work for the New York Times, so you may have to put it in your search engine.
Slightly off topic question: Should I be surprised that all of the amoral cretins caught on video so far have been female? Hmm…maybe, maybe not.
I won't bore you with why I think the Acorn story is being buried by most of the media, or why they choose to run around the clock Joe Wilson coverage. I have also decided not to give the answer to the question of what 2+2 equals either.
I'm gonna evoke memories of Matt McConaughey in, A Time To Kill, though. Close your eyes and imagine the group under fire is Club for Growth. Convincing huh. Even Barack Obama wouldn't be able to preempt wall to wall coverage of tough-minded journalists stalking Grover Norquist and his beard.
To conclude, talk of media bias is boring. It's been documented time and time again. Only the clueless or disingenuous deny it exists. It's also gotten better. Traditional media is like a dinosaur gasping for its final breath after the asteroid of Internet and talk radio hit. Suffice it to say, this won't be a regular feature here.
Television is a lazy and inefficient way of getting news anyway. Reading allows for more depth and variety, in far less time. Except for breaking news, or events where actually seeing it happen is crucial for understanding, TV news is worthless. I'm thinking of speeches or 9/11 style events.
Oh and one other thing: hurricanes. Who would want to miss Geraldo and his ego, clinging to a telephone pole, and all the vital info that comes with it. Thanks to this brave journalism, I now know that hurricanes are very windy and rainy.
Patrick Swayze died yesterday. He seemed like a pretty cool guy and I admired the way he handled his diagnosis with pancreatic cancer. He seemed to carry himself with class.
He also happened to star in the best "so bad it's good" movie ever made. I am talking about Road House of course. If you aren't familiar, click here.
In honor of Swayze, and his work in one of the greatest movies ever made, I decided to put up this tribute. With help from the soundtrack from the movie Glory, it sets the mood perfectly.
I trust that, fellow blogger, and Wichita, Kansas resident, Chuck Ross, was miles away when this sordid event occured.

I also used my green pastel to draw a butterfly silhouette on some handmade paper. Then I took a watercolor brush, dipped it in water and "painted" the water across the drawing. After that I tore the paper in the shape of a butterfly (the moistened paper made the tearing easier).
I used pink ribbon to tie bows on the matting. I also used the pink ribbon as a border around the page, but you can't see that b/c my scanner cuts off about 1/4 inch around my pages.:)

Pickard, who had five separate stints with the Avalanche throughout the year, was leading the NHL with a .936 Sv% when he was reassigned to Lake Erie at the NHL All-Star Break on Jan. 22. The Moncton, New Brunswick, native appeared in 50 games for the Monsters, compiling a 23-17-9 record with a 2.61 GAA, .917 Sv% and three shutouts.

As I sit once again at midnight, with Begum curled up asleep near my feet; I have finished writing a paper to present to young school students on the future of India. In a time span of eight minutes allotted to each of us five panelists, I have tried, in my time slot, to put across the urgent need to comprehend how crucial the small deed is, in contributing to change; and how nothing can ever be possible unless we situate self accountability as vital in shaping how we take our nation into a more enlighted future.
But right now I have just watched on TV the recorded event of a policeman who begged for help as he lay decapitated and bleeding to death from an assault on a road, whilst a convoy with two ministers and a municipal collector kept aloof and watched him die; wasting twenty vital and precious moments that could have saved this man's life. I have written in my presentation to this young audience, whom I will meet this morning, that I choose to always hold a spirit of optimism and hope with all that I engage with in life. However, right now, it is one of those anguishing times where I have to dig really deep within myself to find the energy once again, to resurrect the hope and optimism. Within such climates that showcase to the entire world the break down of any vestige of political will to act responsibly and with no conscience of service to others, I wonder what role models we can place for the youth to emulate.
Once again it is up to the media to stoke the conscience of the relevant state government and invite the voice of the people to bring to book these ministers for their lack of accountability to their constituents. What better time could there have been than this, to display the humanness that is promised in every electoral speech that is sold to the civil society as a pledge of service of the future? The ironic and tragic contrast of the dying bloodied officer in uniform, writhing on the dusty ground pleading to be helped, whilst these elected officials stayed aloof in their crisp white unblemished mundu's; told the sick story of what Indian political governance really amounts to in reality today. Is this what Gandhi's India has become?
And so we must look into the eyes of our youth and hope that somewhere they will be outraged enough, and desiring of, a need to propel a future that is different: not just by empty mumbled promises written by others that we hear mouthed; but by knowing that they must push their sleeves back and dirty their hands at grass root levels, if we are to truly erase the horror of such images where someone dyes from the neglect and disregard of those who should have saved him, and we merely watch it as another news item, soon to be forgotten.

Making it easy for your users to access insight as part of their daily business process, increasing the chance they'll actually action them.
By having predictive scores for channel preference, engagement, customer lifetime value or buying propensity available on a screen to all your customer service agents will make their on-call conversations with customers more informed and intelligent. They don't have to wade through 5 applications to get to the data and crunch it to find the one thing they need to perform their daily business tasks.
Likewise, having the KPIs for leads generated, sales achieved, demand forecasts, cross-sell opportunities or top products showcased on CRM applications or intranet portals for your marketing and sales teams will make them widely understood and keep them in front of all relevant stakeholders when they need it most.
This service offering enables you to integrate and embed generated insights into the various customer systems that are part of your business processes, keeping them updated at all times.
Traditional segmentation requires marketers to manually create sequences of rules to group prospects along demographic, behavioural or purchase history lines. We use data science and machine learning to automate identification of your highest converting prospects and predict the combination of content, channel and timing that will engage them.
Machine learning algorithms run against your data warehouse, continually creating, updating and publishing clean, deduplicated segments to your Marketing Automation, Data Management Platform, Social Media Advertising and CRM systems, and enriching your marketing profiles with predictive scores.
These insight driven segments can be applied to email, social or advertising campaigns or to update marketing profiles with new scores for churn risk, likely lifetime value, product recommendations or next best action.
You can only create a truly data-driven organisation if relevant business stakeholders can share and collaborate on insights. This means in the formats that they want, when they want, on the device they want and with the level of detail they need!
Whether your stakeholders are in internal functions like sales and marketing, C-suite executives and VPs, cross functional managers and department heads, external partners like marketing agencies or vendors, B2B clients and partners and even government or regulatory bodies, they all need to use the same definitions of metrics and KPIs to avoid comparing apples and oranges. And from a cost and efficiency perspective, different stakeholder groups all be serviced from the same set of data, using the same infrastructure and processes.
This service enables you to share the insight reports and dashboards with their verified receivers in various formats e.g. pdf/ppt/excels/web pages/emails etc. at set frequencies or on demand, within a strong security, legal, privacy and governance framework.
Imagine if you could design a KPI, then ask the system to watch it and carry out various actions when certain conditions and/or thresholds are met?
For example, when the average purchase value per month of any customer touches a certain value, you trigger loyalty card workflow for that customer or add a customer to a retention campaign if their churn prediction scores go beyond 60%.
This service enables you to automate and trigger various business process workflows based on what the insights tell you, thus saving you manual and inconsistent efforts in acting on a piece of information or insight.

It may be the moral equivalent to dropping the atomic bomb on Hiroshima in its effect on destroying America as we once knew it.
Using the 'humanitarian crisis' of unaccompanied minor aliens as a pretext, Barack Obama exudes confidence in this final act of massive destruction defying threats of an impeachment and a boost to conservative Republicans in the upcoming elections.
Obama's objective, it seems, is to destroy the nation while he has the chance.
From our source we read:
Even as they grapple with an immigration crisis at the border, White House officials are making plans to act before November's mid-term elections to grant work permits to potentially millions of immigrants who are in this country illegally, allowing them to stay in the United States without threat of deportation, according to advocates and lawmakers in touch with the administration.
Such a large-scale move on immigration could scramble election-year politics and lead some conservative Republicans to push for impeachment proceedings against President Barack Obama, a prospect White House officials have openly discussed.
Yet there's little sign that the urgent humanitarian situation in South Texas, where unaccompanied minors have been showing up by the tens of thousands from Central America, has impeded Obama from making plans to address some portion of the 11.5 million immigrants now in this country illegally. Obama announced late last month that congressional efforts to remake the nation's dysfunctional immigration system were dead and he would proceed on his own authority to fix the system where he could.

A Day in Salzburg Austria
All the pathos and irony of leaving one's youth behind is thus implicit in every joyous moment of travel: one knows that the first joy can never be recovered, and the wise traveler learns not to repeat successes but tries new places all the time.
~Paul Fussell~
Have you ever wondered what a day in Salzburg Austria might be like? The 2010 movie Knight and Day with Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz might have you thinking one thing…but I can assure you, my experience there was much different. The train between Munich and Salzburg runs every hour and takes just under two hours, one way. The train ride is very scenic and picturesque as you pass through Bavaria to this very quaint gem in northern Austria.
With a population of only 150,000 Salzburg has a large student population as it is home for three universities. It truly has a small town feel and for international visitors it is generally only a stop-over destination in the midst of something else. As Mozart's birthplace and the setting for The Sound of Music, Salzburg attracts all sorts of different travelers.
Gillian and I were only venturing to Salzburg for the day. We figured it would be a nice day trip during our stay in Munich. Turns out we were right. Just make sure you bring your comfortable shoes. From the Hauptbahnhof (train station) you are looking at about a 10 minute walk to the Mirabell Palace and Gardens (see pictures below)…and from there another 10 minutes to the Salzburg Cathedral in Domplatz.
The Historic City Centre of Salzburg (a UNESCO World Heritage site) is so much fun to explore. Much like Heidelberg, the city has a large ominous fortress overlooking the city that you can see from almost anywhere. Atop Festungsberg mountain, construction of Hohensalzburg Castle began in 1077 and is one of the largest medieval castles in Europe. You can enter the fortress for a fee by purchasing a Fortress Card, which will also include a ride up and down the mountain on the funicular (cable car). For a lesser charge, you are welcome to walk and simply enter the fortress.
Visiting the Hohensalzburg Fortress is something I really wish that we would've made the time for. After having visited a few castles recently though, we didn't see the value at the time. If I ever end up in Salzburg again though, there is no way I'd miss it the second time around.
Little shops and kiosks are everywhere to compete for tourists' business and horse and carriages frequent the plazas giving you the chance to travel back in time a little.
Or perhaps you feel like visiting the Mozarteum, the University of Music and Dramatic Arts honouring Wolfgang Mozart. Visit their site here if you are interested in catching a concert during your visit.
Whatever it is that draws you to Salzburg, I have no doubt you will enjoy your time there taking in the baroque architecture and meandering your way through this well preserved gem.
Thanks for reading!

I wanted to go to Salzburg when I was in Austria, but it just didn't work out! Vienna is way nice though. It's on top of my list of cities I want to go back to! Looks like you had a great time there!

When military service members deploy, they leave behind everyone and everything familiar.
Sometimes, those familiar someones are of the furry variety. This poses a dilemma for many service members because their furry friend may not have a place to bunk while they await an eventual homecoming.
Still other soldiers experience a loss when they befriend an animal in country only to have to leave them behind.
The Bangor Daily News featured a story about the soldier and dog pictured at the left and how the dog's moving to the States has helped the soldier with his reintegration.
So what happens when a soldier deploys and has a pet who needs care?
Enter Dogs on Deployment. I found this group first on Facebook. They match dogs needing a temporary home with boarders willing to provide that home while their owner serves for an extended period. Boarding could be for a relatively short period (during training or a course) or for a longer duration (overseas deployment or PCS). Descriptions and photos of the dogs are listed along with their locations. Stateside families complete applications to become approved boarders and then begin searching for their match. It seems like a wonderful way to ease a service members mind and to allow animal lovers a good way to support the troops.
Another organization that helps with fostering military members' pets of all kinds is the Guardian Angels for Soldiers' Pets Organization. This group, affiliated with Soldiers' Angels, has been working since 2005 to offer temporary foster homes to the pets of military members and veterans--deploying members, wounded warriors or those families whose situation prevents them from carying for a pet while the member is gone. Also, for PCS'ing families whose animals can't travel at the same time, the group offers 3-6 month fostering.
I know when my husband was deployed, there were so many free range animals that it broke his heart. He's not really one to wear his emotions on his sleeve, but when it comes to dogs (and even the cooler cats), it bothers him very much to see them neglected and needing attention. One dog repeatedly worked guard duty with him in Kosovo and there were other "camp" animals along the way in the sandbox.
I made a donation today to help bring a dog named Missy home from Afghanistan to be reunited with her soldier who loves her. We are seeing more and more of these stories and, frankly, it warms my heart.
I know that some people will say that there are plenty of stray and abandoned animals in our own country who need a home. I agree. That's true. I also know, though, that the bonds formed between these animals in country and the military personnel are some of the truest and most poignant. In the States, there are no-kill shelters, rescue groups working tirelessly to place animals. I know many too many animals are euthanized in this country because of irresponsible pet owners. In Afghanistan, there is no hope.
If you have ever had the privilege of meeting an animal who has absolutely no hope and you become that hope only to have to leave or to wait to bring that animal into your life on a permanent basis, you know how excruciating it must be for these troops. To basically have a best friend for six to twelve months only to pack up and leave them in a dangerous, lonely place--emotionally hard.
Yes. New troops come in, but if you've bonded with that dog or cat, you are their person and they will miss you. And you? You will miss them like no other.
I like the mission of The Puppy Rescue Mission. I also found them first on Facebook. I love to watch the animal's funds being raised and for them to make the trek to the United States to be reunited with their friend. It warms my heart.
What organizations do you know that works to help military personnel and their pets? Put them in comments with their links.
