According to the Family Business Institute and the Family Firm Institute, about 30 percent of all privately owned business will not succeed into the third generation.
Evanston, IL (Vocus/PRWEB) April 04, 2011
More family and independently owned businesses will change leadership in the near future than ever before. "Depending on which study you look at, it's estimated that 10 to 12 million baby boomers will retire and exit their businesses before the end of this decade," says Richard A. Morris, principal of ROI Consulting in Evanston, Ill. The impact of this transformation will ripple throughout the U.S., given that privately held businesses make up about 50% of the GDP and represent more than 99% of all employer firms in the nation, according to the U.S. Small Business Administration.
Jennifer Kruger, Senior Editor at PMA, the worldwide community of photo imaging associations, wants to be sure her industry navigates this landslide of transition successfully. She recently interviewed Morris on the Imaging Executive Podcast to provide insight and guidance on strategies for successful succession. "His advice is valuable for any industry, and we hope more than just our members will tune in," Kruger says.
Unfortunately, many businesses do not survive leadership change. Morris points out, "According to the Family Business Institute and the Family Firm Institute, about 30 percent of all privately owned business will not succeed into the third generation." He also provides other startling statistics, accumulated through years of research. About 50% of privately-held businesses have poor or no estate tax planning. More than half lack a governance structure that will support new leadership, and about 90% have not yet chosen the next leader of the business.
"These are essential ingredients to insure that ownership of a business will transfer successfully," he tells Kruger. If the owner plans to sell the business, it's critical to keep the business growing, identify financing options and get a clear picture of what the business is actually worth. Pointing out that most exit strategies require at least 10 years to implement, Morris suggests, "Don't wait too long."
During the podcast, Kruger zeroes in on the key questions business owners need to think about to be ready for a succession or transition: "When should business owners begin thinking about and planning for succession? What steps should they take and what plans should they have in place prior to handing the business over to the next generation? What factors should they consider when choosing the right person to take over the business? And how does the transition process differ when we're talking about a family-owned business?"
Morris provides a wealth of insightful – and sometimes unexpected – answers, such as, "The time to start thinking about your exit strategy is the day you open your business. Issues like buy/sell agreements are easier to negotiate before your business has become successful."
If you're thinking about passing the reins of your business to new leadership, this interview is a must-listen. To hear the full interview, go to http://imagingexec.com/-strategies-for-successful-succession. Other podcasts with Kruger can be heard at http://www.imagingexec.com/.
In addition, Morris provides a treasure trove of free resources on his website ROI Consulting (Resource for Ownership Intelligence).

Third in the Skylanders: Elements of Prophecy fanfics.
Previous: Dragon Island Drama - Next: Enter the Vecoline
Date finished: 6/27/2014
Note: I tried to give Smile Dog more of a role since in the previous two stories he did pretty much nothing. He didn't even have one single line in Dragon Island Drama.
Chapter One: Dried EyesEdit
Noises of banging, crashing, and scratching on the walls could be heard in Spyro's house. Spyro was throwing all sorts of magic books, Skylands history books, and scrolls written in Draconic into a bag. Sparx flew up and hovered in front of Spyro, rubbing his eyes.
"Spyro! It's only 8:00 AM, what could you possibly be doing this early?"
Spyro looked at him with bloodshot eyes, it had been obvious that he'd been up all night.
"You've forgotten already? Sparx! Today is the day I'm supposed to meet Ignitus at Acornia!"
Sparx looked puzzled.
Spyro growled at him.
"Yes, Acornia! The capital of Willow Woods, and Ignitus and his assistant Cristal De le Crème are supposed to meet me at noon for some meeting or something."
Sparx scratched his head.
"Okay, are you bringing your friends?"
Spyro had completely forgotten about his friends until then.
"Sparx! I almost forgot! I need to get my friends!"
Spyro grabbed his bag of books and charged out the door.
Spyro ran to Tails' house and knocked on the door frantically.
"Tails, Tails, Tails!"
Tails opened the door, looking very tired."
"Spyro, what is it?"
"Tails, have you forgotten? We're supposed to go to Acornia!"
Tails blinked.
"Yeah, but, weren't we supposed to go later?"
"But my meeting with Ignitus starts at noon, if we don't go now I'll be late for sure!"
Tails opened his mouth, but didn't have time to say anything as Spyro grabbed his hand and dragged him out the door.
Spyro had gathered up his four remaining friends, including Sunburn, who luckily had been the only one of Spyro's friends who remembered that they were supposed to leave for Acornia that early, so he stayed in Willow Woods City for the night instead of Volcano Island. Spyro pointed at the train station located near the Snoring Tree.
"We have to take the train."
Tails rubbed his eyes.
"Can't we just take the hot air balloon?"
Before Spyro could answer, Flashwing chirped in.
"Yes, but taking the balloon is about a thousand times less regal."
Sunburn looked puzzled.
"Um, how are we supposed to take a train to Acornia? Isn't Acornia, I don't know, located on a hill in the middle of the ocean?"
Spyro shrugged at him.
"You'll see."
As Spyro led the his friends to the train station, he had noticed that Smile Dog was missing.
"Smile Dog?"
The door to the Snoring Tree swung open, and Smile Dog walked out, with Rayman and Galaxy right behind him. Spyro growled.
"Um, excuse me, but that thing is NOT coming with us."
Galaxy snapped her teeth at him.
"I am NOT a thing!"
Spyro rolled his eyes.
"Not you!"
Spyro pointed his white claw at Rayman.
"He is not coming, Smile Dog!"
Smile Dog rolled his eyes.
"Chill, Spy, he won't cause any harm. I'll let him sit in a train seat far from you, I promise."
Spyro gritted his teeth, he cared about Smile Dog a lot, and he didn't want to hurt his feelings, but he didn't want his whole trip to be ruined all because Rayman wanted to be annoying.
"No, Smile Dog, send him home."
Spyro turned away and walked towards the train station, waving his paw at his friends to have them come.
"You too, Smile Dog."
Smile Dog stood up on his hind legs and whispered something to Rayman, Rayman nodded and went back inside the Snoring Tree.
As Spyro and his friends were hopping on the train, Spyro decided to let Galaxy come with them like she wanted, since Spyro had more respect for her than Rayman. On the train, Smile Dog stuck his head out the back window, and Rayman came outside the Snoring Tree. Smile Dog waved his paw at him in a "come here" fashion. Rayman walked over to the train and leaned up to the window, Rayman was only 4ft tall, and the window was 7ft, Smile Dog reached out of the window the best he could without falling out to whisper something to him.
"There's a small hole in the bottom of the train, if you can squeeze through it I can sneak you in. I'll distract Spyro."
Rayman nodded and crawled under the train.
Smile Dog could feel Rayman bumping under the train from the floor, Smile Dog ran to Spyro and pointed at the window.
"Spyro, look! It's Kaos in his floating castle!"
Spyro quickly stuck his head out the window.
"Where? I don't see it!"
Rayman quickly slipped from the hole in the floor and ran to crouch under one of the seats.
"Smile Dog, are you sure you saw it?"
"Actually, I might have been just seeing things."
Smile Dog walked towards the seat where Rayman was hiding under.
"How long do I have to stay here?"
Smile Dog wiped the dirt from his nose with his paw from being under the train, Smile Dog's thick phantom scales made Rayman shiver a little, it reminded him of the Darktoons he had to fight every day.
"At least until the train stops, then when Spyro and the others are out of the train I can sneak you out the window."
Rayman nodded and Smile Dog sat on the seat just behind the one Rayman was hiding under. Spyro looked excited to go to Acornia.
"I heard that Gill Grunt is going to visit me during me and Ignitus' meeting! I haven't seen him in quite a while, it would be great to see him again!"
Gill Grunt had a special place in Spyro's heart, because of all the Skylander missions they had done together, and especially since Gill was one of the first Skylanders Spyro ever met when Master Eon had brought him to the Ruins from Summer Forest. However, when Spyro moved to Willow Woods he lost touch with him.
"Tickets, please."
A mabu walked up to the Skylanders, Spyro smiled and gave him his train ticket, his friends did the same. As the mabu walked up and down the train to see if there were any more passengers, he saw Smile Dog, Smile Dog handed him his ticket. The mabu then caught a strange smell.
"That smells like, the smell of ichneumon."
Rayman was pretty much in Hell under the train seat, there was old gum stuck on the floor, and nasty rotten bread crumbs, and empty candy wrappers infested with flies. It made Rayman want to vomit, but he held it back knowing that he would be caught hiding under there. A fly then landed on top of his nose.
Smile Dog reached his paw under the seat and smushed Rayman's face in before he could sneeze.
"Shhhhh" he whispered.
The mabu had left and the train eventually started. As it got rolling Sunburn kept peering out the window, and she saw what Spyro had been talking about. There were train tracks on a narrow stone bridge on the water, the bridge would extend to the bottom of the hill where Acornia was located, it was strange, but it made sense in an odd Skylands-logic sort of way. The two suns were just starting to come up, and before the Skylanders knew it, they were at Acornia.
The train had stopped right at the bottom of the hill Acornia was located, just at what Sunburn had pictured. Spyro and his friends hopped out of the train, and gazed up at the stiff path going up the hill and towards the bright city. Acornia was just as beautiful up close than it was seeing it in the landscape from Willow Woods City, it was full of bronze-colored spiraling towers and bridges, as Spyro and his friends made their way up the hill, they stopped at a giant gold gate which led to the city. Flashwing was too busy feeling the shiny gold the gate was made out of to care about how to open it. Spyro waved his paw at the mabu who they had handed the tickets to.
"How do we go in?"
The mabu walked up and waved his hand at the gate, and magically the gate opened. Spyro and his friends walked into the Willow Woods capital for the first time. The streets were embedded with beautiful shiny gems in the road, and many types of jewels and gems decorated the numerous buildings and towers.
A the train, Smile Dog pulled Rayman out from under the train seat, he smelled and looked as bad as he did when he was under the train. Smile Dog gazed over and saw the mabu slowly walking down the hill and back to the train.
Rayman and Smile Dog hopped out the window and waited behind the train for the mabu to return. When the mabu went back into the train, Rayman and Smile Dog made a run for it up the hill to the city.
"Now what? How are we going to keep Spyro from finding about me now?"
Smile Dog led Rayman to a corner of the street behind a building.
"Wait here."
Smile Dog dashed down the street to go find Spyro.
Spyro and his friends walked down the shining streets, Flashwing had stars in her eyes, it was like an ultimate gem paradise, gems, gems, everywhere, of all types. Smile Dog managed to catch up to them.
"Spyro, are we going to stay here for the night or go home early?"
Spyro rolled his eyes.
"Oh my Eon, you really don't remember the plan, do you? We are going to stay at a hotel tonight, and don't try to forget it."
Spyro said it in a matter-of-fact sounding voice, before turning back around and continued walking through the city. Smile Dog felt sort of hurt, he thought that Spyro thought that he was dumb and couldn't remember anything. Smile Dog ran from the group back towards Rayman.
"Wow, I should have known from the start that Rayman was a better friend than that purple idiot! At least Rayman doesn't think I'll forget everything!" he thought.
Chapter Two: The MeetingEdit
Spyro had walked up a narrow bridge into a giant tower where Chronicler Ignitus lived. It was a giant spiraling tower, similar to other towers in the city, except this one was much much bigger, and was decorated with silver instead of gold. On the wall of the tower had drawings of Ignitus fighting off Malefor's army of apes when they had attacked the Dragon Temple seventeen years ago carved into the stone. Spyro and his friends entered the giant tower and walked into the main room. Spyro saw books, books everywhere, he looked around and saw thousands of history books about Skylands and the worlds beyond, he even caught sight of a book relating to the mysterious planet known as Earth.
Spyro walked over to Ignitus' desk, and saw a giant book sitting on it, Spyro picked it up, and realized that it was one of the Books of Time, a series of books that chronicled every part of dragon history, and one of the Books of Time had one page in it for each dragon that died, in Skylands and the worlds beyond. After Spyro and Cynder had defeated Malefor, the previous Chronicler before Ignitus had searched through every page of the book for any sign of Spyro or Cynder to confirm if they had died, but he found nothing, meaning Spyro and Cynder were still alive, which they were. The Chronicler would watch over the Books of Time for the time he or she would be Chronicler.
Ignitus then appeared from the upstairs. He folded his wings and smiled at Spyro.
"Hello, Spyro, I knew you'd come, and you've brought your friends along too!"
Spyro nodded and watched as Ignitus' personal assistant, Cristal De le Crème, flew from the upstairs. Cristal was a werewolf, who wore a white and black striped sweater with a black skirt. She wore black high-heeled boots and a dark gray beret. She had long black hair and blue eyes, and had two black and white furred wolf ears, and a furry wolf tail sticking out a hole of her skirt. She also had two large white angel-like wings. No one was sure what she looked like in her wolf form, as she hid it from the world for years, fearing that everyone would be scared of her if they saw her wolf form.
"This must be the SkyWing dragon Skylander you were talking about, Ignitus."
She looked at Ignitus and spoke in her thick French accent. She was quite tall, reaching Ignitus' shoulder, though it could be just an illusion caused by her high heels. Ignitus nodded.
"Cristal, could you go fetch me some more blackberries from the store, my pet phoenixes are quite hungry."
"Yes, Ignitus."
Cristal spread her white feathered-wings and flew out the window.
"Spyro, can we talk in private, please?"
Spyro nodded, and he and Ignitus walked over to another room. Tails looked over at the over Skylanders.
"I wonder what he's hiding from us."
Sunburn scoffed.
"Probably some very important magic talk that only the magical purple dragon of prophecy can know."
Suddenly, the door opened, and a blue gillman with a jet pack filled with water walked in. It was Gill Grunt, one of Spyro's Skylander pals. Sunburn waved over to him.
"Hi, Gill Grunt! Spyro is in the other room having a super secret conversation with Ignitus, you can wait out here with us if you'd like."
Gill chuckled and walked inside to the group of Skylanders.
"I'll just wait here then."
Chapter Three: Swimming with the FishesEdit
Smile Dog and Rayman had decided to explore Acornia without the others.
"I don't want to see Spyro's face ever again! He is so rude to you! And he thinks I will forget everything about the plan!"
Rayman gently tapped his paw on Smile Dog's shoulder, careful not to come in contact with the phantom scales. You see, whenever Smile Dog was frustrated or mad, his phantom scales would become poisonous, and if you touched it you would get sick, and quite possibly, according to Spyro's research, turn into a phantom. No one in Skylands had actually been brave enough to see what would happen if you touched it.
"Calm down, Smile Dog, I'm sure Spyro didn't mean to hurt your feelings, after all, all of his friends had forgotten about pretty much all of the plans. Except for Sunburn, he has "rise and shine" as one of his battle cries for a reason, you know."
Smile Dog twitched his shoulder a little, causing a light purple liquid to drip out his scales. But Rayman was right, Spyro probably didn't mean to hurt his feelings, but that doesn't mean he didn't.
"Oh, if Spyro finds out I brought you along, oh my Eon, he might try to scorch me to cinders with that hot fire breath of his."
Smile Dog had been so mad about Spyro that he barely payed any attention to the city. Smile Dog looked around at all of the towers and buildings in awe.
"Ever since I first opened up my shop in Willow Woods City, I had wanted to make enough money so I could open up an even bigger shop here, in downtown Acornia, I'm sure I'd get way more customers here."
Rayman was a little bit shocked.
"Bu-but, if you open a shop here, would that mean you'd move away from the Willow Woods City? Because it would be awfully annoying to have to take the train to a far away city every morning just to get to work, and that would mean, I couldn't come to your shop and help you, and you'd be so far away from your friends."
Smile Dog shrugged.
"I guess it would mean I'd have to move, but I won't be opening a shop here until I'm an old grumpy dog, so don't worry."
"I'd hate to imagine how poisonous his scales would be when he's an old grumpy dog." Rayman thought.
-At the meeting-
Spyro and Ignitus had finally come out of the room, Spyro then caught sight of Gill Grunt waiting in the group.
Spyro ran towards Gill and hugged him tightly.
"I haven't seen you since we finally got all the pieces to the Mask of Power! How have you been?"
Gill smiled.
"I've been great! How did your meeting with Ignitus go?"
"It went great!"
Cristal had flown back to the tower and in through the window she left through.
"Here are the blackberries for the phoenixes."
She handed a basket full of blackberries to Ignitus, who levitated them with his magic and set them on his desk.
"Thank you, Cristal."
Spyro and his Skylander friends then left the tower and continued exploring the city. Tails poked Spyro on the shoulder.
"So, what did Ignitus tell you?"
Spyro gazed at Tails and sighed.
"Well, he told me something you guys would probably hate, but, he wants me to stay with him in Acornia for a few days, for a Fire Elemental test, to see how powerful my fire breath has gotten. And that's why he wanted to talk in private, because he was worried you'd all freak out."
All of Spyro's friends looked shocked.
Spyro scratched his head.
"Yes, a few days, but come on guys, you can survive a few days without me."
Tails flicked his tails at Spyro.
"Yeah, but it would be really hard."
Smile Dog and Rayman had come across a HUGE candy shop, Rayman was looking at a bunch of plum-flavored lollipops, and Smile Dog was gazing in awe at all the beautifully frosted cakes.
"I wish I could decorate cakes that good!"
Smile Dog then went over and saw that Rayman was actually taking piles of plum lollipops and stuffing them into a bag.
"Rayman! That's stealing, you should know better!"
Smile Dog then grabbed the bag away from him and threw all the lollipops out.
Smile Dog then took two lollipops from the pile and took them to the cash register, but no one was there. He rang the bell on the counter ten times, but no one came.
"Ugh! Does ANYONE work here!?"
Smile Dog then leaped up and jumped over the counter, but he didn't land on the floor like he expected, instead, he fell right through the floor and into a dark hole.
Rayman peered over the counter and saw the dark hole.
"Smile Dog!?"
Rayman leaped over the counter and went into the hole.
Smile Dog was still falling, and when Rayman fell they collided with each over. As they hugged each other they came crashing into a shallow pond with green water. As they got up, they realized they weren't in main Acornia anymore. Smile Dog looked around, they were in a dark cave with stone walls, green colored pools of water were everywhere, and spiders made their webs in the cracks on the ceiling. Smile Dog swished his paw through the murky water, and came across numerous fish bones and skeletons. Rayman stood up and squeezed the green water out of his damp hair.
"Where are we?"
As Smile Dog studied the cave some more, he realized that they had fallen into the Acornia sewers.
"I think we're in the sewers."
Rayman wiped off more water from him.
"Gross! Who knows where this water came from! Obviously something disgusting is mixed with it or it wouldn't be green!"
Smile Dog wiped off the water from his scales.
"Pretty much."
On the surface, Spyro and his friends were still exploring the city, Flashwing had thee urge to just fly up to the towers and take out one of the gems and take it home. Spyro hadn't noticed until now that Smile Dog was missing.
"Hey, where's Smile Dog?"
Tails shrugged.
"I have no idea."
Spyro snorted.
"Well, we have to find him."
As Spyro and his friends searched across the city for Smile Dog, Spyro had a plan to split up.
"Tails, Sunburn, you guys search in the town square. Galaxy, you search near the gardens, and me Gill, and Flashwing will look around here, okay?"
Spyro's friends nodded and went their separate ways. Spyro, Gill Grunt and Flashwing searched across the area they were at, but Smile Dog was still no where to be found. Spyro then walked over behind a building, and saw a dark hole in the ground.
"Guys, come here!"
Flashwing and Gill ran over there, before Gill lost his balance and tumbled into Flashwing, who tumbled into Spyro. The three then fell into the hole.
Spyro would have just grabbed onto Gill and fly out of there, but the hole was too narrow, with not enough room to spread his wings and fly, same with Flashwing, who despite having wings slightly smaller than Spyro, still were two big to fully spread.
The three Skylanders tumbled down the hole in a giant ball before hitting the ground, splashing into a pond of green water. They got up, and Flashwing screamed.
"My beautiful polished scales! What is this disgusting liquid!?"
Gill also hated the water, it reminded him of the nasty polluted water Kaos would infest the ocean with sometimes. It also smelled.
"Guys, we're in the sewers."
Flashwing got up and flapped her wings to get excess water off.
"You think Smile Dog could be down here? It's the only area we haven't checked."
Gill scratched his head.
"But why would Smile Dog be in here?"
Spyro snorted.
"With that husky, anything's possible."
Flashwing then noticed some footprints on the stone area just next to one of the ponds, quite possibly caused by someone walking there after getting the green water on their feet. Spyro walked over and took a closer look at the footprints, they looked identical to a husky's prints, but there were another set of foot prints next to it, which looked like they were caused by someone wearing shoes.
"Strange, I say we follow the prints."
Spyro, Gill, and Flashwing then started to walk down the sewers and follow the footprints, until they came to a stop. Spyro looked over at the pond near where the prints stopped, and it looked deeper than the other ponds, which were shallow. Spyro took a deep breath and dipped his head into the pond. Flashwing was shocked.
"Spyro, what in Eon's name are you doing!?"
Spyro bobbed his head above the water.
"I think whoever made the prints must have swam down there, it's deep enough, and there seems to be a tunnel leading to somewhere else down there. We have to swim."
Flashwing stepped away.
"Nuh-uh, I ain't going down there."
Gill had already dived down in the water, and Spyro grabbed Flashwing and dived into the water.
Flashwing struggled to get free from Spyro's strong grip, but she knew she had to go underwater whether she liked it or not, so she put up with it.
"Rayman, come on! Do you want to get out of here or not!?"
Smile Dog and Rayman stood beside a deep water pond, they had already swam through two ponds to get where they were, and by then Rayman was done with swimming in the murky water.
"Can't there be another way to get out of here? I mean, this sewer keeps going just ahead, there must be a way to get out of here that way."
Rayman pointed at the tunnel beyond them.
"You know, if you actually used your brain, you could figure out that we're actually getting further away from the city, since each of the tunnels located under the water are located down, not up, so basically, we're just swimming deeper into the sewers. Great job."
Rayman certainly had no limbs, but he certainly had a brain. Smile Dog growled at his best friend.
"Shut the heck up, Rayman! I am going to get us out of here whether you like it or not!!"
Smile Dog dove into the pond, Rayman didn't want to be left all alone to get out of the sewer, so he sighed and dove in after him.
As they swam through the tunnel and got to the surface, they noticed a ladder on the wall, something that was not on any of the other walls.
"Look, a ladder! It might lead to the exit!"
Smile Dog went and climbed up the ladder, and Rayman quickly followed. The ladder lead to a small platform, which led to, no where. Smile Dog let out a loud groan which echoed all across the sewers.
"Where'd you think the ladder was going to take you, the city? You obviously forgot that we are way below the city."
Smile Dog snapped his jaw at the hero of the Glade of Dreams and growled like he had rabies.
"One more word out of you and I'll be snapping that neck of yours!"
Rayman chuckled.
"I don't have a neck, you stupid idiot."
Smile Dog was shocked that his best friend called him an idiot, Smile Dog was already mad at Spyro, and he was even more stressed. Smile Dog jumped up and tackled Rayman. The two tumbled off the platform and into the pond. Rayman and Smile Dog argued for over twenty minutes over whether to take the tunnel ahead or to swim in the underwater tunnels.
Spyro, Gill Grunt, and Flashwing still were walking around the dark sewers, trying to find any clue of Smile Dog, Spyro then stopped in his tracks, causing Gill and Flashwing to bump into him.
"Sorry, but do you hear that?"
Flashwing got up and looked ahead.
"Hear what?"
Spyro lifted his head higher and strained his ears to listen.
"It sounds like, arguing, and I swear to Eon I hear Smile Dog's voice, with someone else's."
Flashwing jumped up and hovered in the air, not wanting to step in the green water ever again.
"Well, let's go!"
Spyro and his two friends rushed to the sound of the arguing, until it just stopped, Spyro then heard it pick up again, he stepped closer to the stone wall of the sewer, and pressed his ear against it.
"It's all YOUR fault we're down here!"
"My fault? You're the one who fell in the hole first!"
Spyro could tell one of the voices was Smile Dog, but he couldn't tell who the second voice belongs too, but it sounded very familiar, but he just couldn't put his claw on it. All he knew was that Smile Dog wasn't alone.
"It's coming from behind this wall, we have to destroy it."
Gill Grunt walked up to the wall and felt it, it felt very thick.
"And how exactly are we supposed to do that?"
Spyro thought hard, a part of him wished that Boomer were there with them, his dynamite and bombs combined could break that wall in a heartbeat. Spyro then had an idea."
"Perhaps I could use my earth breath on the wall. If I control it correctly I could smash it open, but I'll have to charge it for it to have maximum power."
On the other side of the wall, Rayman and Smile Dog were still arguing over which path they should take. Soon, they stopped when the floor shook. Smile Dog looked down at the pond as ripples started to appear.
"What was that?"
Rayman opened his mouth, but didn't have time to answer before a creature erupted from the pond. It appeared to be a giant cobra, but it was made of the dark green water. It hissed at the two, before breathing a blast of water them. Rayman struggled to stand up.
"What in Eon's name is that thing!?"
Smile Dog grabbed his axe and jumped up and tried to slash it, but his axe passed right through. The cobra hissed at him and whacked him away with his tail. Spyro heard all the noise and hissing through the wall, still charging his earth breath.
Spyro stood up, and opened his mouth. A blast of dark green earth breath smashed a giant hole in the wall. Spyro and his three friends ran to the other side. Smile Dog was shocked to see them.
Spyro glared up at the water cobra, before leaping up and blasting his electric breath at it. The cobra shrieked in pain as Flashwing flew up and whacked it with her crystal shards. The creature screamed and dissolved into water which landed into the pond. Spyro flew down and ran to hug Smile Dog.
"Oh Smile Dog! I'm so glad you're okay!"
Spyro then gazed over and saw Rayman. Smile Dog jumped away from him and stood in front of Rayman in a defensive position.
"Spyro! It's not what you think!"
So much smoke was pouring out of Spyro's nose that it was sort of hard too see his eyes. Spyro stomped his paw on the ground and roared.
"What in Eon's name did I tell you, Smile Dog!? I told you to leave that waste of Nymph magic at home, but did you listen!? No, you didn't! I'm sure it was HIS fault you were stuck down here, isn't it?"
Smile Dog glared his eyes back at Spyro.
"Actually, it was my fault, I fell into the sewer hole first, and Rayman jumped in after me, because he cared about me and wanted to save me."
Spyro's rageful eyes then turned to normal.
"I-I'm so sorry, I didn't know what I was thinking, I was just so mad."
Smile Dog walked over and gave his SkyWing friend a hug.
"It's all right, all that matters now is getting out of this sewer."
Spyro then had an idea.
"I still have some Earth Element energy left, if it could smash open the wall, I'm sure it can smash open the ceiling."
Smile Dog nodded as Spyro flew to the ceiling, he inhaled in and blasted a giant breath of cinder breath at the ceiling. It blasted a hole, Spyro could see the sky from above.
"Come on!"
Gill hopped on Flashwing's back, who flew up out of the hole. Smile Dog jumped on Spyro's back, and just as he was about to fly, Smile Dog tapped him with his claw. Spyro glared over and saw Rayman, Spyro then rolled his eyes and let Rayman climb on his back. Spyro flew out of the hole, and finally, they were in the city again.
Chapter Four: Out of the Murky WaterEdit
Spyro, Flashwing, Gill, Smile Dog, and Rayman had finally caught up with the others, who were extremely worried. Galaxy was glad that she didn't come with them.
"Ew, being trapped in a sewer, that's disgusting!"
Smile Dog walked next to Rayman, and gazed up at him.
"I'm sorry I snapped at you like that, it's just that when I'm frustrated I don't really think straight."
Rayman smiled.
"It's alright. All that matters now is that we all get a bath."
Later on, Spyro was looking through Ignitus' books, and one caught his eye. "Portal Masters of Skylands" the title read. Spyro looked through the book, and one Portal Master caught his eye, Spyro gasped.
"I need to see him."

Decrypt EFS file
Hello everyone.
I am very desperate and I am here to ask for help. I had a folder encrypted with EFS on desktop and a backup that I occasionally updated on a pen drive. Unfortunately one day it happened that the hard disk burned and the certificate was not exported to a pen drive.
On this pen drive I have the data to access the ethereum portfolio, but obviously when I try to open it it gives me access denied. Is there a solution to decrypt these files? I would be very grateful to you!
Thanks a lot.
ps = I have already sent my hard disk to the ontrack and it is unrecoverable
ElcomSoft does have a tool for brute-forcing EFS encrypted files, but I have no idea if their approach will work in your specific case (files copied to another media)
Thank you for your answer. I already used this software but did nothing. I understand that in any case the certificate must be present in the register in order to decrypt. But I lost the certificate, because the hard disk burned and I didn't export the pfx file to the pen drive!
I like to say that if someone manages to help me solve the problem, I would give a $ 500 reward.
Thanks again
Yep, whenever these Commercial programs are available you never know what they actually do as - even if the programmers did explain that - the marketing folks will have overwritten the info with the usual "can do anything" hype.
Another one worth a try
it mentions user password OR certificate, so maybe it can actually rebuild them? ?
There is a "manual" way, detailed here
but hard to say if it still works on newer EFS, AFAIK that is 2K/XP

Pyromeral Systems shares its high temperature technologies together with Composite Resources to breakthrough in space and defense applications.
Composite Resources and Pyromeral Systems form alliance for ceramic composites
Composite Resources (Rock Hill, SC, USA), who is specialized in composite manufacturing for defense, industry and sport cars, and Pyromeral Systems (Barbery, France), who has developed glass-ceramic and oxide composites technologies for high temperature applications, have set up manufacturing alliance.
Composite Resources has access to Pyromeral Systems technologies to be able to manufacture composite components for elevated temperatures for US defense applications where ITAR restrictions apply.
Pyromeral Systems has a long history (since 1984) in developing and industrializing material technologies for high temperature applications. Its parts manufacturing capabilities have shown successes in race cars and defense in Europe. Pyromeral Systems has developed three main material technologies.
Two of them are based on glass-ceramic matrix, proprietary technology, having either carbon (PyroKarb) or silicon-carbide fiber reinforcement (PyroSic).
These materials are designed to be used at low temperature with nearly same techniques and toolings as those used for conventional carbon-fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP). PyroSic has a working temperature of 700°C and offers tensile strength of 300 MPa and flexural strength of 350 MPa. PyroKarb has a service temperature of 350°C and offers tensile strength of 250 MPa and flexural strength of 270 MPa. Both materials are also completely fire resistant.
The third technology material is PyroXide, a newly patented technology (2019), being an alternative to usual oxide-oxide solutions and showing a more flexible manufacturing capability for wider geometrical possibilities. It is also capable for long exposure at very high temperatures: for example, it can withstand thousands of ours at 1000°C without any loss of mechanical properties. PyroXide uses 3M's Nextel ceramic oxide fibers with a ceramic matrix. It has a tensile strength of 300 MPa and flexural strength of 350 MPa.
Applications of these materials include heatshields, exhaust systems, radomes and hypersonic structures.
Aerospace sector is one of the main ones to drive innovation in composites. The aerospace and defense industry makes up to 13% of the total composites market in 2016 in value. In 2016-2021, its...

Capetonians eye Atlantic Seaboard property market
DURBAN – While wealthy and foreign buyers have taken some time out from the Atlantic Seaboard market, locals are using the opportunity to snap up property in the lower price categories.
Ross Levin, managing director for Seeff Atlantic Seaboard, Waterfront and City Bowl says there has been strong demand for property below R5 million, predominantly apartments, accelerating slightly over the last two months.
Almost R1 billion of this year's sales for the Atlantic Seaboard and City Bowl fall under the R5 million price mark, and he said that most of these deals have been concluded in well under three months.
In contrast, sales above R15 million on the Atlantic Seaboard and R10 million in the City Bowl remain slow.
Only 29 deals have been recorded above this level for the Atlantic Seaboard with only 18 of those above R20 million. Just three of the top-end (R20m-plus) sales were to foreign buyers and only three of the highest prices paid have been to non-Cape buyers.
Sectional title sales are dominating the market, accounting for well over 75 percent of all units sold and over 55 percent of the value generated in the market this year.
The highest prices achieved on the Atlantic Seaboard include R60m for a house in Fresnaye, R58,5m for an apartment in Bantry Bay and R45m for a house in Clifton. This says Mr Levin is nowhere near the levels of 2-3 years ago when sales of R100 million to R290 million were concluded.
The rentals market though continues to deliver excellent results with Seeff agents achieving rentals of R110,000/month in Fresnaye and R170,000/month for a house in Bantry Bay.
While frustrating for sellers, the upside is that buyers have plenty of choice and favourable buying conditions. There can be no better time to invest here than right now as you are essentially buying at last year's prices, and when the market turns, you can look forward to excellent capital value growth as was well demonstrated during the 2014-2017 mini-boom period.
Attracting new buyers
Levin said that the City of Cape Town Tourism is doing a pretty good job of promoting the city and the good governance is another positive attraction for investment into property.
He added that wealthy buyers (all buyers actually) and foreign investors need a stable and growing economy, political certainty and security of property investments which are key to attracting investment into property (and the economy).
Levin said that it is important to attract wealthy and foreign buyers because they generate substantial property taxes for government
"They generate substantial property taxes for government. Often, they also renovate and extend and there is a whole chain of economic benefits and job creation that result. Foreigners also bring direct foreign investment into the country. You have to sell a lot of R2 million houses to generate the same property taxes (transfer duty) that you would on a R20 million sale on the Atlantic Seaboard," said Levin.

Meet Zac Brown's 'Better Half': just just just How He and Jewelry Designer Wife Shelly Created an Inclusive Camp

"It's enjoyable to see individuals who have this style that is amazing add our pieces in just what they wear," she states.
It yourself" attitude whether it's creating new jewelry pieces for her line or helping out on music videos for Zac Brown Band, Shelly keeps a "do.
"I have no clue exactly just how others do so, however it appears so we have to get all this stuff together like we have two days before this video is going to shoot. It's high-intensity and adrenaline," she claims, including that a few of the wardrobe things from shoots are on display within the Country musical Hall of Fame. "To see this kind of part that is huge of life laid away in an easy method that way brought rips to my eyes, since there are countless memories.

She continues: "Every time we might live someplace, we might wind up purchasing a piece that is extra of like, 'That's likely to be where in actuality the camp will probably get.' When we got our home that we're in now, it absolutely was simply therefore supposed to be."
Nations To Obtain The Perfect Asian Bride
Plenty of western guys nowadays fall mind over heels for brides off their nations. The cause of this is that they're perhaps maybe perhaps not attracted to girls that are western all or have actually been down that road and failed. Additionally, around 2 decades right straight straight back, marrying A asian girl ended up being considered a taboo. Nevertheless now men and women have are more open-minded and accepting. Whatever function as the explanation, lots of western men these times flock towards these exotic and tender beauties of Asia.
Girls out of each and every Asian nation have their own features and determining which one is the very best can be very a job. Be it Asia, Vietnam, Asia, Thailand or other nation, each national nation features its own quality.
Where should you look for you personally Asian bride?
Asia is definitely a country that is extremely diverse a mixture of a wide array of various countries and traditions. It really is a mystical land with a great deal of hidden gems.

Fireys fine tune skills ahead of bushfire season
AROUND 600 acres of scrub and bush near Fordsdale was burned over the weekend in preparation for a particularly dry bushfire season.
Upward of 80 members of the Rural Fire Brigade were joined by a number of their executive leadership team and Queensland Fire and Emergency Services commissioner Katarina Carroll for a major training and testing exercise.
Lockyer Valley Group Officer Jamie Reside said the operation on Saturday, which formed a part of Operation Cool Burn, had achieved its aims.
As well as an important hazard reduction effort, the day allowed fire fighters to reinforce their skills and get to grips with new equipment, appliances and technology that will prove crucial in the field going forward.
"We're coming up to our fire season," Mr Reside said.
"So this is to polish up on our skills, learn new skills and learn new team members. We've got a lot of new members coming out.
"This is not necessarily their first fire, but it might be their first large scale incident and possibly their first set-up where they're using an incident management team and that reporting structure."
RFS Assistant Commissioner Tom Dawson said the burn would give the area a "defensive point" during bushfire season.
"So this is well planned, this is possibly three years in the making," Mr Dawson said.
"There's a fuel load, there's some scrub and bush out there - a large area. If we take this out and put a very cool fire through it, it will make it safe come the bushfire season."
The chance for brigades to gather together before the new season - dubbed Operation Synergy - was important.
"At the end of the day, we've got a lot of gear and equipment and sheds and buildings but we're people," Mr Dawson said.
"It's a great opportunity to see the volunteer family come together, commit together and work together and then go home and know the job's done go and then do it next weekend.
"It's real training, you can't beat this. This draws ours people together and they walk away more confident.
"They're very competent, you want to build their confidence - that keeps them safe."

|Version 4 (modified by 10 years ago) ( diff ),
These are some notes pertaining to the R1 Alpha 2 release cycle.
The order is semi-random. Feel free to make additions.
For now, it's on this page & in the future it may be moved elsewhere or deleted entirely.
These are some general points of the R1/A2 release
- rushed feeling
- too many drastic changesets being committed
- large overhead of reviewing changesets
- no formal QA
- no way to monitor QA
- not enough testing of "final" images
Release Phase : Mindset
- realize that there will be issues in the release
- the release phase is for polishing the code -- not for anything to potentially destablize it
- there will always be another release, another opportunity to introduce new bugs
- Increase duration of release schedule -- eg, add more days
- Stricter commit policy during schedule
- Policy increases as the deadline approaches
- Main focus on testing & fixing small issues
- Will lessen the need for a Changset Reviewer
- Introduce "cool down" phase
- build the final release images several days before the release date.
- allows increased testing and less chances of major issues slipping by.
- At the beginning of that phase the code base would
basically be ready for the release already, including all optional packages. The main focus should be on testing and fixing small annoyances.
- More organized QA process
- detailed checklists for testing images
- QA manager/coordinator
Detailed Breakdown
This is an actual phase of the release schedule. It's purpose is to grab the attention of all contributors -- committers, bug reporters, translators, everyone.
- strong announcement of plan to enter release cycle mode
- post on mailing list & website
- explain new procedures in release cycle
- stricter commit policy
- formalization of QA
- other new tasks
- proposal/vote stage (for new optional packages or something else?)
- allows time for developers to push any remaining drastic changesets
- allows optional-packages to be rebuilt
- determine & publish (tentative) release cycle timeline
The needs to be ample time between the decision of when to branch and the actual branching . This is especially important for R1/A3, as there have been numerous API changes and 3rd party software may need to be updated to work properly
Pre-Branching: Tasks
- http://dev.haiku-os.org/wiki/R1/ReleaseRoadMap
- stub out wiki pages (http://dev.haiku-os.org/wiki/R1/Alpha3/)
- FeatureProposals (unused in R1/A2)
- StatusAndCoordination (possibly break down to Tasks, Timeline)
- MergeTracking (hopefully not needed)
- RebuildingOptionalPackages
- QualityAssurance
- ReleaseNotes
- ReleaseAddendum
- ReportedIssues
- ImprovementsSinceRelease
- InThePress
Upon Branching
This is the official start of the release cycle. Enforce a stricter commit policy
- only minor changes to fix reported bugs
- optional packages can only be fixed -- not updated simply for the sake of it
- reduces the need of a formal "Changset Reviewer" or branch maintainer
- reduces the chance of destablizing release
Upon Branching: Tasks
- MergeTracking script (hopefully not needed)
- Organize the press release
- where to send it for review
- need to allow project members to review/edit it as needed.
- most information can be done beforehand -- fill in the exact dates & revision later
- organize translators
- where to send it for review
Quality Assurance
- each image type (anyboot, vmware, ...) needs to be tested for:
- booting from medium
- booting on hardware
- installation from all mediums
- testing of all optional packages for missing dependencies
Before Tagging: Tasks
This is near the end of the release cycle. The attention shifts from producing code to finalizing details
- disable serial debugging
- remove the sleeps in the Bootscript
- build/jam/ReleaseBuildProfiles
# Uncomment in official release branch. HAIKU_DEFINES += HAIKU_OFFICIAL_RELEASE ; TARGET_DEFINES += HAIKU_OFFICIAL_RELEASE ;
After Tagging
- Trac Administration
- create new default 'version'
- close current milestone
- create the following wiki pages
- InThePress
- ReportedIssues
- ImprovementsSinceRelease
- Internal Testing
- harvest public keys from svn.haiku-os.org
sudo bash ; export allkeys=`find /home -type f -name "authorized_key*"` ; for key in $allkeys; do cat $key >> allkeys.pub ; done
- Create tar.xz sources for Haiku & Buildtools
tar --exclude=.svn -cJf <archive>.tar.xz directory/
- Copy all sources to http://haiku-files.org/files/releases/r1alpha2/sources/
- simply allow the .OptionalPackageDescriptions & InstallSourceArchive to point to http://haiku-files.org/files/sources
Stuff to organize more
Automatic rsync mirrors
Manual upload/push mirrors
Installing files for rsync
Include all image archive files, md5sums.txt, *.torrent, sources/baron.haiku-os.org /srv/rsync/haiku-mirror-seed/releases/
Flipping the switch
- update http://dev.haiku-os.org/wiki/R1/ReleaseRoadMap to display Release date & revision
- Stamp
- HAIKU logo with ladybugs & stamp
- Installer logo
- Desktop logo (though, do not enable it)
- Frontpage download graphic
- CD/DVD graphic

Sources of Ethnicity Differences in Non-Cognitive Development in Children and Adolescents
Download: Life Course Centre Working Paper: 2019-21
Ha Trong Nguyen, Luke B. Connelly, Huong Thu Le, Francis Mitrou, Catherine L. Taylor, and Stephen R. Zubrick.
Non-Technical Summary:
In most multi-cultural Anglo-Saxon countries, children of Asian immigrants have higher academic achievement than children of native-born parents. Yet, little is known about their relative non-cognitive performance. This study employs rich and nationally representative longitudinal data on two cohorts of Australian-born children observed over 12 years and children's behavioral and socio-emotional skills as measured by the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire to report significant differences in non-cognitive skill development between children of Asian immigrants and children from other selective ethnic groups. Furthermore, the ethnic gaps vary significantly by who provides the measures of children's non-cognitive skills, the types of non-cognitive skills and children's ages. Specifically, using teachers' reports, relative to non-Asian children, children of Asian immigrants are found to excel in almost all non-cognitive attributes, particularly after school entry ages. By contrast, Asian immigrant parents rated their children lower in some non-cognitive attributes such as Pro-sociality, Emotional, Peer and overall non-cognitive skill scales and at early ages. However, we do not observe significant ethnic differences in non-cognitive skills between third-generation Asian immigrant children and their non-Asian peers.
We also find that differences in initial child non-cognitive abilities, parenting styles and children's time allocations are the most important factors contributing to ethnicity-based non-cognitive skill gaps. Moreover, both ethnic differences in parenting styles and children's time allocations contribute to reducing the non-cognitive skill advantage observed for Asian immigrant children. In particular, the contribution of parenting styles is consistent with two observations: (i) as compared to Australian-born parents, Asian immigrant parents are less warm and less disciplined when interacting with their children and (ii) the positive returns to warm and effective discipline parenting styles. Similarly, the patterns that (i) children of Asian immigrants are much less physically active and (ii) the positive returns to time spent on physically active activities both explain the contribution of children's time allocations to reducing the ethnicity-based non-cognitive skill gaps in favour of Asian immigrant children.
The results from this paper highlight that studies using non-cognitive skills reported by various informants could result in very different conclusions about ethnic differences in non-cognitive skills. The results also suggest that policies aiming at promoting warmer or more effective parenting styles or increasing children's time spent on physically active activities could foster non-cognitive skill development for all children.

Layer Validation with the VSTS 2010 CTP
In my first post of this series, I broke down the VSTS 2010 Architecture product into "functional" areas, and I've been slowly describing the pieces. The areas highlighted ( Modeling Project here and here, Model Explorer, and Work Item Integration ) I've already discussed at some length. Today, I want to drill into the Layer Diagram a bit more. Specifically, I want to walk you through the steps of creating a simple Layer diagram, map your code onto it, and validate that code against the constraints authored in the diagram via a manual validation gesture. ( In a future post I'll show you how to automate validation in your build process. )
For this post, I'll be using the VSTS 2010 CTP.
In this example, I'm going to be using some very simplistic code, as it is not the details of the code that I'm trying to emphasize, but more the concept the code represents. Let's get started...
Start you VSTS 2010 CTP image
Launch VS 2010
Create a C# console app called "Client", and name the solution "Layer Validation". You're "New Project" dialog should look similar to this:
Now right click on the solution node, select "New Project...", select "Class Library" and name the Project "Implementation":
Do the exact same thing you just did in step 4, except name the project "Interfaces".
Again, do the exact same thing except name the project "Creators". You should have a solution explorer that looks similar to this:
Now expand the "Interfaces" project node. Right click on the "Class1.cs" file, select "Rename", rename the class to IDataRetriever.cs, and click the "Yes" button when prompted. You should now see something like this in your document well and Solution Explorer:
Change IDataRetriever into an interface by replacing the "class" keyword with "interface".
Now add a getter property that returns an object that implements the "IData" interface. You'll notice that VS is indicating to you that IData doesn't exist yet by putting the red squiggles underneath "IData":
Let's resolve this error by taking advantage of a new feature in VS 2010.
Right click on the offending "IData", select "Generate", and select "Other...":
You'll now be presented with the "New Type" dialog. Change the "Type Kind:" drop-down to "interface" and the "Access:" drop-down to "public". Leave the rest as defaults:
VS will automatically create a new interface called "IData" in a new file called "IData.cs" placed in the Interfaces project. Nice, that's exactly what we wanted! Now let's go implement the IDataRetriever interface over in the "Implementation" project.
Expand the "Implementation" project node.
Right click on the "References" node, select "Add Reference...", click the "Projects" tab, and select "Interfaces":
Collapse the "References" node.
Right click on the "Class1.cs" file, select "Rename", change the file name to "DataRetriever.cs" , and select "Yes" in the dialog that pops up.
Double-click on the "DataRetriever.cs" file, and make the new class implement the "IDataRetriever" interface. You'll notice that as you attempt to type "IDataRetriever", you get no intellisense support. That's ok, finish typing in "IDataRetriever", and again notice the red squigglies below the term.
Hover over "IDataRetriever" and notice a small rectangle under the start of the word. Click on that and select "using interfaces;". This will automatically insert the using statement that is required.
Now that the "using Interfaces;" line has been automatically added, select the "smart tag" again, but this time select "Implement interface 'IDataRetriever'":
Your final "DataRetriever" file should look like this:
Now add a reference to the "Implementation" project as well as the "Interfaces" project, following the similar steps in step 13 above.
Expand the "Client" project node and double click on "Program.cs".
Type "DataRetriever", select the smart-tag and select "using Implementation;". That will automatically generate the using statement needed to use the DataRetriever type. Finish like so, adding the "using Interfaces;" statement as well:
Rebuild the solution. If all went according to plan, no errors.
So what does this program do at this point? Well, actually nothing except instantiate a type, call a property on that type, throw a "NotImplementedException", then exit. Not that interesting, but also not the point. This is just setting the stage for a very common problem found in systems of all types.
This code is pretty typical of code that is early in its evolutionary path. We've got a client program accessing the specific implementation of an interface directly. This is fine for now, as all the program needs is the data that "DataRetriever" was designed to retrieve ( imagine DataRetriever pulling from a SQL database for instance ). But what about tomorrow when a requirement hits your desk, demanding data to be pulled from a different data source without changing the behavior of the rest of the application?
What we need is to *not* make any assumptions on *how* an interface is implemented, and depend *only* on the contract of the interface(s) itself. Again, a fairly common design pattern, but one that is pretty easy to violate in today's world, as it takes but one line of code to break this pattern and create dependencies that were not intended. This is what various IoC containers are out to help mitigate.
So how do we enforce this design in our code, protecting the intent of that design, and ensure our code is resilient to this type of breakage? Enter the Layer Diagram and Layer Validation.
Let's create a Layer Diagram where we will visually describe the constraints on our architecture that we want to maintain.
Create the Layer Diagram
Right click on the solution node and select Add->New Solution Folder. Name the folder "Diagrams"
Right click on the "Diagrams" solution folder and select Add->New Item..., select the "Layer Diagram" template, and name the diagram "FirstLayerDiagram.layer":
Since these are CTP bits, there are still a few things not quite right. One of these things is the fact that you'll see two Layer Diagram Explorers appear next to your Solution Explorer. Close the one that looks like this:
Now let's draw the layer diagram, make your diagram look like this one:
Please make sure that the links are going in the direction you see above, or things aren't going to work right in later steps!
What we're saying through this diagram is that we have a "Client Logic" layer that is dependent on the "Interfaces" layer, and an "Implementation" layer also dependent on the "Interfaces" layer. What we are also saying is that the "Client Logic" layer is *not* dependent on the "Implementation" layer, nor should it be. The lack of a directed link in this last case is very important.
But now we need to map our source code onto this layer diagram, so that the system can verify that your code is complying or *not* complying with the constraints this seemingly simple diagram is describing.
Let's do that now.
Map Source Onto the Layers
In the Solution Explorer, click and drag the "Client" project out onto the layer diagram and release your mouse on the "Client Logic" layer shape:
Drag the "Interfaces" project from the Solution Explorer out onto the layer diagram and let go over the top of the "Interfaces" layer shape:
And finally, drag the "Implementation" project from the Solution Explorer out onto the "Implementation" layer shape:
Your layer diagram should now look something like this. Notice the little icons in the upper right hand corner of the shapes. This indicates that source ( or some type of artifact(s) ) has been associated to the layer:
If you select the "Client Logic" shape, then click on the "Layer Explorer", that shows you the types of items associated with the layer. In this case, the "Client" csharp project:
Now we're ready to "Validate" our code against the diagram.
Right click anywhere in the layer diagram and select "Validate":
Notice an error is displayed in the Error Window:
This is expected at this point, 'cause the code in Program.cs found in the "Client" project is directly manipulating types from the "Implementation" project. We just finished creating a layer diagram that declares this type of dependency invalid!
So let's fix the problem in code so that this layer validation error goes away.
Fix Code
Back in Program.cs, we need to make sure that we are only using types out of the "Interfaces" project, or more importantly, *not* use types out of the "Implementation" project. That's all well and good, but we need a way to get an instance of an object that implements IDataRetriever without taking a direct dependency on that type.
Enter the Factory pattern.
In the Solution Explorer, expand the "Creators" project, right click on "Class1.cs", select "Rename...", and rename the file to "TypeCreator.cs".
Add the "Implementation" project and "Interfaces" as a references to the "Creators" project ( i.e., "Creators" now depends on the "Implementation" and "Interfaces" projects ).
Double click on the "TypeCreator.cs" file in Solution Explorer, which will make that file fill the document well.
Add a static method that creates a "DataRetriever" object but returns an IDataRetriever interface. TypeCreator.cs should look similar to this:
In the "Client" project, remove the "Implementation" project reference, and add a reference to the "Creators" project.
Change Program.cs to take advantage of the new method we just created. Program.cs should look something like this:
Rebuild the solution. No errors.
Now we need to bring up the Architecture Explorer and click the refresh button to work around a current limitation in the CTP bits.
From the main menu bar, select "View->Architecture Explorer".
Select the "Refresh Content" button on that explorer:
Now bring the FirstLayerDiagram back into view, right click on "Validate", and take a look at the error tool window. No errors! WooHoo! :)
I've shown you, through an admittedly trivial example, how to validate your solution through a simple Layer diagram. I've shown you how to map source onto the layers and how to tell the system what dependencies are valid and which are not via a manual gesture and that diagram.
There is much more to show on this diagram and how you can interact with it. A very important next step is to show you how to make the Validation action an automatic step in your build process. I'll do that in a future post.
Stay tuned! :)

In particular, i vaguely recall that i've seen ~90 warnings on the OpenOffice codebase - none of them were pure virtual calls and most of them looked like false positives in the sense that the virtual function is called intentionally. Which means that i would be generally worried about this warning. That said, i don't know how warnings are accepted into Clang and whether there is a threshold on intentional violations. I suspect that it depends on whether the warning is expected to be on by default or be part of -Wall or only -Weverything. In general, warnings in Clang are expected to be on-by-default and have an extremely low false positive rate (certainly lower than for the static analyzer). I suspect this warning would not meet the usual bar for inclusion as a Clang warning given the number of false positives it's shown in the past. I think the static analyzer is a better place for the functionality to live, especially given that it requires actual static analysis of runtime control flows to reduce those false positives. > Another good thing to do with a warning that may be intentionally triggered by the user is to add a hint on how to suppress it.

With that, in my opinion it'd be a good warning. Agreed that this would be a sensible way for users to suppress the diagnostic -- it clarifies that the programmer understands the behavior of the call. ~Aaron

January 24, 2016
It's been 20 years and 17 days since we've last had a storm of this magnitude in our region (remember the Blizzard of 96?). In one 24 hour period Mother Nature has dropped over 2 feet of snow outside our door. Amazing! We hope everyone rode out the storm in safety and comfort.
