Fueled by news reports of religious persecution, there is much talk these days, often urgently expressed, about the need for Americans to take responsibility for the promotion and enforcement of rights to religious freedom around the world. The project has broad and enthusiastic support from legislators, within churches, and among the general population. In addition to private initiatives promoting religious freedom abroad, and in response to intense lobbying, the U.S. Senate has recently unanimously passed and the president has signed into law, the International Religious Freedom Act. The new act is quite elaborate. It creates a special State Department office to monitor religious persecution and requires preparation by that office of annual reports describing religious freedom violations in every country in the world, as well as special training of foreign service officers and immigration officials and the opening of American embassies to religious activities. A special adviser on international religious freedom is to be added to the National Security Council. To oversee these new civil servants, the act provides for the creation of an independent watchdog advisory commission on religious freedom. Finally, the president is directed to take action, on the basis of the annual reports, to promote religious freedom around the world.

Pain med is one 5/500 Hydrocode and anxiety med is 2mg valium
Is it OK to take a pain medication and a 2mg valium at the same time?
Is it OK to take a pain medication and a 2mg valium at the same time? My Pharmacy is closed?
Pain med is one 5/500 Hydrocode and anxiety med is 2mg valium

I take oxycodone, 10/325 4x a day and at night for my severe muscle spasms I take valium 10 mg but I only take the valium at night to sleep and on good days I may take only 1 or 2 of the oxycodone for pain and no valium if I can sleep. I should have taken the valium last nite that is why I woke so early today3:30 am. But like the previous answer said seek advice from your pharmacist and or Dr. But the Dr must be aware of your situation to have prescribed both medications at the same time. Breathing problems can result from either of those medications. Low breathing rates etc. If you find you are experiencing shortness of breath stop the valium and Talk to your Dr about this. Dont wait set up an appointment today. Hope you feel better. B

I am also on the same medications, however, I was advised by my doctor to never take them together because it may cause respiratory failure. Especially when you're not use to taking the med. I take my valium at night if i need it during the day also, however never within the time I need to take my pain medication. I always wait a minimum of two hours before taking anything else. Good Luck, Call your pharmacy and ask, ask ask better to be safe than sorry, you can call any pharmacy that is open 24 hours and they too will be happy to answer your questions if you give them the name of the medications you are taking.

I am thinking about buying a new server based development box for development (redundantly redundant, I know ;)). Ideally, I want to run something like ESXi or Xen Hypervisor at the lowest level. Then I want to add (at least) 5 Linux VM's for the following uses:
2 Web Servers 2 Application Servers 1 Database Server
I want to load balance the 2 web servers and the 2 application servers and (somewhat obviously) they need to be all networked together to simulate a production environment.
Also, it used to be the case that the recommendation was to put each VM on it's own hard drive, but I'm not sure that holds water anymore. Any advice?
Does anyone have any advice on how to pull this off? Gotchya's, LookOuts!, etc?

Damn, that is impressive. It conveys powerful feelings without using extremely loud/powerful instruments, which is hard to do in my own opinion. It is well timed, and the overall melody just screams perfection. It is a masterpiece, and i have to say, thank you SO much for an opportunity to HEAR a true work of art.

The Yankee is a large commercial truck that is featured in both 3D Universe and HD Universe. It is manufactured by Vapid in the HD Universe.
In all of its appearances, the Yankee is depicted as a box truck with a long wheelbase and a large cab with room for 2 occupants, including the driver. Like many industrial vehicles, the Yankee has a changing "skin", along with a random paint job. This means that the Yankee will have a random company logo printed on the side of the truck. Its usually one of the most common trucks in the game (along with the Mule).
3D Universe
First introduced in Grand Theft Auto III, the Yankee was predominantly designed to be one of the largest straight-trucks available in the games, with a boxed cargo compartment (which, by Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, would contain actual cargo). The Yankee is loosely based on the Ford F700. The Yankee retained its design on almost every 3D Universe game, with the exception of a few details on the rear door, as well as a line on the cab doors on the Vice City renditions of the vehicle. For renditions in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, the Yankee has an extended cargo hold, being slighty larger than in the games set in Liberty City.
HD Universe
The Grand Theft Auto IV rendition assumes the design of an 1980's International Harvester S-Series/1980's GMC Topkick. While it is not as large as the 3D Universe version, it's noticeably taller and bigger than before. This truck seems heavier than before, resulting in a strong bodywork like most Box trucks in the game (considering than most box trucks are also bigger than in their previous appearances, like the Benson and the Mule). This rendition of the truck sometimes comes with an additional refrigeration unit mounted over the truck cab.
For Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, the truck seems to be a combination between the 3D Universe model and the GTA IV model (judging by the lack of an air conditioning unit and a stripe on the cab), which will appear with almost the same liveries as in GTA IV.
Current Design Gallery
Version History Gallery
The Yankee is generally useless due to its performance and susceptibility to rollovers on rough terrain and it has no special features, except that it may be used as a moving "staircase". The player can jump on the hood, and then to the roof, and then to the container. This can be very useful to reach high places, like hidden packages and weapons, even Easter eggs.
3D Universe
The Yankee's size and weight often contributes to its poor cornering, poor acceleration and poor hill-climbing abilities, but may achieve decent speed on a straightaway. The performance and appearances of the Yankee are also slightly different between renditions in Grand Theft Auto III and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories.
Grand Theft Auto IV
While the truck retains most of the properties from the 3D Universe renditions, the Yankee seems powerful to ram small vehicles thanks to its slight changes in terms of speed, as well as a slighty better handling due to the short wheelbase, but is still a difficult vehicle to drive. The suspension is good to sort uneven terrains, but its heavy weight makes it a poor choice off-road, where the truck's wheels spins too much while travelling on dirt. Rollovers are a big issue, likely for its suspension and its large size.

The Lost and Damned
For The Lost and Damned, however, the special open bed variant of the Yankee has been drastically changed over its box truck counterpart. Most of the issues mentioned above are almost reduced, while retaining its capacity to ram small vehicles. This Yankee is considerably faster. Acceleration and top speed are increased, weight is reduced and handling is nimble and responsive. While it's still a bad choice for off-roading, wheel spins are less noticeable than the first version, given its lighter build.
All these improvements makes the Yankee one of the fastest industrial trucks in the game, and can be used to perform burnouts and "donuts", thanks to its engine output.

In GTA IV, the Yankee comes in seven variants. The plain Yankee is by far the least common. The other six variants differ only by the logos on the sides. They are Sprunk, Liberty State Delivery, Redwood Cigarettes, ECola, Pisswasser, and Binco. The ECola, Pisswasser, and Binco variants all have a cooling apparatus above the cab, while the Sprunk variant, interestingly enough, does not. The Sprunk variant also appears to be worn down.
Open bed Yankee
In The Lost and Damned, an open bed Yankee, the only one of its kind in the series, is featured. While its chassis and cab design is still derived from the GTA IV Yankee's design, the open bed Yankee is also distinguishable by it weathered design (complete with dents and rough bodywork), and comes in only one color scheme (gray with white stripes).
Ammu-Nation Yankee
A variant of the Yankee in GTA Chinatown Wars bears an Ammu-Nation livery. The truck is identifiable by its red, white and blue color, as well as a visible blue star on the roof of the cargo compartment and Ammu-Nation's rocket-shaped logo on the sides. Performance is otherwise similar to a regular Yankee. Being a large truck, this variant of the Yankee cannot be resprayed or repaired; neither can the player save the truck in the garage under normal circumstances. The cargo can be collected by the player.
Grand Theft Auto III
- Parked at Portland Docks.
- Spawns normally around Saint Mark's in Portland
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
- Common in Viceport and Escobar International Airport.
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
- Usually spotted around industrial areas of Los Santos, such as Ocean Docks and Willowfield.
- Found driving around the LVA Freight Depot, Las Venturas.
Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories
- Parked at Portland Docks, near the car park.
- Spawns regularly around Portland and Staunton Island.
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories
- Parked among containers near Phil Cassidy's Shooting Range in Viceport.
- Parked near the northernmost empire businesses (There are two empire buildings in the north. The one mentioned here is the one in the west near dirt-bike tracks).
- Usually spawns around Viceport.
Grand Theft Auto IV + Episodes from Liberty City
- The player drives one during the mission Harbouring a Grudge for Patrick McReary, although the player can park it at a safehouse, kill Packie, and redo the mission.
- Spawned in scripted traffic during the missions "Bleed Out", "Ivan The Not So Terrible", and "If the Price is Right". However, taking one will likely cause mission failure.
- It rarely can be found in commercial/industrial areas such as BOABO, (Broker), Cerveza Heights (Dukes), and Northwood (Algonquin), Liberty City.
- Spawns in an industrial yard north on Tinderbox Avenue in Tudor, Alderney; near Honkers. It is parked just behind the blue covered boxes in (if you do go there and it does not spawn go a small distance away from that location and return back). Also, there is another location where it spawns, it is just around the same building next to a steel support structure. Be careful with this one, because if the player touches it, the truck may eventually moves as it was stuck somewhere and "jumps" over the place. The same will be stuck due to the rollover or damaging the player if falls over the same.
- The open bed Yankee is only featured during "Liberty City Choppers", as a transport for a load of motorcycles. Upon completion of the mission, the truck dissapears of the scene and is no longer seen. The player is thus required to intentionally fail the mission by killing the accompanying Jim Fitzgerald or killing themselves after parking the truck at a safehouse parking lot. If this trick is performed while the truck is full of bikes, they will remain in it. However, they won't be interactive.
- In multiplayer, the open bed Yankee is available in the Club Business, during which it is used to transport two Nightblades around the city, and is instructed to be stolen.
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars
- The standard Yankees are relatively common around Star Junction in Algonquin, as well as around the Cerveza Heights Medical Center in Dukes.
- The Ammu-Nation Yankee starts to appear on the streets after "Pimp His Ride". It typically contains a weapon's cache for a specific weapon that can be acquired through the theft of the vehicle. However, the truck is locked as long as the driver is inside, so players must resort to damaging the truck until the driver exits. From this point on, players may acquire the truck and drive it to a secluded safehouse; killing the shotgun-armed and well armored driver is optional. Once at a safehouse, players will automatically exit the truck, and may weld open the cargo hold for their reward. The truck will remain locked thereafter.
|This article or section needs to be cleaned up to meet the standards of GTA Wiki
Default radio stations in GTA III, VC, LCS and VSC.
- The Yankee plays the following radio stations by default when entered:
- GTA San Andreas: K-Rose
- GTA IV: Massive B Soundsystem 96.9 or Tuff Gong Radio
- Episodes From Liberty City: RamJam FM
- The Lost and Damned: Liberty Rock Radio 97.8 for the open bed Yankee.
- The Yankee has appeared in other Rockstar games: a white Yankee with a dirty blue cargo hold can be found parked in an industrial yard in Bully, while Yankees appear in both Manhunt and Manhunt 2. In all of these appearances, however, it is non-interactive.
- Yankee is a slang term for an American.
- The Truck could be named after the professional baseball team, the New York Yankees.
- In GTA Vice City, GTA San Andreas, and GTA Vice City Stories, if the player breaks off the rear shutter, it is possible to see the contents of the truck. For example, a fish truck will be carrying crates of fish, a butcher truck will be carrying meat, etc. However, plain trucks tend to be empty.
- The Trashmaster shares its cab with that of the Yankee in GTA VC, GTA SA and GTA VCS.
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
- The Yankee appears to have the wrong engine sound which is probably intended for the Benson, and thus sounds like a smaller truck.
Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories
- The Yankee is the only vehicle that has been proven to work with a mission, where the player may obtain a Maverick without using any third party trainer programs. The mission requires the use of the "perfect handling" cheat to be activated, thus giving the truck a jumping capability. Using this the player can use the truck, make it jump on the building, and steal the helicopter.[1]
Grand Theft Auto IV and episodes
- The Yankee lacks reverse lights in GTA IV.
- The GTA IV version of the Yankee has a glitch. When spawned, it may be pretty fast, but when repaired it at a Pay 'n' Spray (or use the heal pack on Multiplayer), for some strange reason, it makes it much slower.
- Is possible to carry a small vehicle like a Rhapsody on the back of an open bed Yankee in TLAD. However, it may result in a weight increase and a constant damage on the rear border.
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars
- It is one of the three cars seen in 3D in GTA Chinatown Wars along the Admiral and the Enforcer. Its license plate is AMMU N4T.

Clermont announced Davies' deal - there is also the option of a third season - on their official website.
The 25-year-old, who has won 37 caps, starred for the British and Irish Lions during their victorious Australia tour earlier this year, playing in all three Tests.
Davies played for Wales in last Saturday's Test match against South Africa, but he suffered a chest injury that forced him off early in the game.
Wales have already confirmed that Davies will miss their remaining autumn appointments with Argentina, Tonga and Australia, while he could also be forced to sit out this season's Six Nations if it is decided that he requires surgery.
He is due to link up with Clermont, last season's Heineken Cup runners-up, next July.
And he becomes the latest Wales international to move into France's Top 14, following the likes of Clermont full-back Lee Byrne, Perpignan's James Hook and Luke Charteris, plus the Racing Metro pair of Jamie Roberts and Dan Lydiate.
Davies' departure from the Welsh regional scene is a huge blow for both the Scarlets and the Welsh Rugby Union, with the regional teams struggling to keep their leading players who are nearing the end of existing contracts.
Clermont sporting director Jean-Marc Lhermet told the club website: "We can only be delighted to welcome Jonathan.
"His profile fits perfectly to the game that we practise.
"Despite his young age, he has a huge experience of high-level matches and is one of the world's best players in his position. He will be an asset to our team.
"Jonathan decided to leave Wales for a new adventure , and we are happy that it is with the 'yellow and blue'.
"In addition to his class, he has determination to help us win new titles in the years to come."
Davies' form on the Lions tour - he started all three Tests as the tourists recorded a first series triumph since 1997 - confirmed his status as one of European rugby's hottest properties.
And a move to France means that one of the Top 14 heavyweights have once again underlined their financial clout.
He will join a star-studded Clermont squad that contains players such as Aurelien Rougerie, Morgan Parra, Sitiveni Sivivatu and Wesley Fofana.
And Davies' departure will put into even sharper focus the futures of several Wales colleagues, with skipper Sam Warburton, full-back Leigh Halfpenny, prop Adam Jones and lock Alun-Wyn Jones among those nearing the end of existing playing contracts.
It is understood that the WRU has earmarked a £1million fund to help the regions keep their prize assets.

Presidents Day in a presidential election year.Consider the political kaleidoscope of a foggy office-bound or home-bound Monday in Memphis with former President George W. Bush on the tube in the late afternoon defending his brother's presidential campaign without once uttering the word Trump.No further word of a Trump appearance promised for Memphis and some of Donald Trump's own statements Monday suggested that by the time Memphis is on his schedule, he might be running as an independent.Then there is the obsession in one corner of social media with Supreme Court history in rich detail.And heads were turned Monday evening by the excerpt on the Grammys from the Broadway musical about Alexander Hamilton – a founding father born in the West Indies who established the nation's financial system and the Federalist party. He never became a president, in part, because the vice president killed him. Hamilton wasn't the only one who had been talking bad about Aaron Burr. The top of the ticket, President Thomas Jefferson, had decided to dump Burr from the ticket in the next election and Burr was trying to transition to become governor of New York.

BASF honored with German Diversity Award
BASF has been honored with the German Diversity Award as "Germany's Most Diverse Employer" in the category large-scale enterprise. The prize is awarded by Henkel, the business consultancy McKinsey and the German business magazine Wirtschaftswoche. It honors employers, individuals and innovative projects that are especially committed to establishing a working culture of diversity.
After accepting the award, Saori Dubourg, President BASF East Asia Regional Headquarters said: "Diversity and Inclusion is a strategic tool for BASF to focus our competencies towards future market demands. The award is therefore a big appreciation of our present efforts in this field and at the same time an incentive to become even better at it." Saori Dubourg was instrumental in setting up the global Diversity + Inclusion project back in 2008 and 2009.
"Diversity is by now firmly anchored in BASF's daily business," confirmed Dr. André Becker and Peter van den Hoek, both currently responsible for the global Diversity + Inclusion (D+I) activities at BASF. "Nevertheless, we will continue to develop instruments and measures to advance the diversity in our company."
For example, "Inclusion of Diversity" is a vital competency at BASF and one of the assessment criteria that is used during employees' annual appraisal dialogues with their superior.
Furthermore, more than 150 BASF employees worldwide are already involved as D+I ambassadors in addition to their regular jobs: They organize D+I activities, collect best practices, and actively support establishing a culture of diversity in their own working environment.

Perceptual Quality Assessment for Digital Audio: PEAQ-The New ITU Standard for Objective Measurement of the Perceived Audio Quality
Increasing attention is being paid to the issue of objective quality assessment, basically in the perceptual coding and the metrology domains. Perceptual coding of audio signals is increasingly used in transmission and storage of high-quality digital audio; and there is an obvious demand for an acceptable objective method to measure the quality of such signals. A new measurement method is described, which combines features from several earlier methods. This method meets the requirements of the user community and has become a recommendation within the ITU Radio Communication Study Groups.

I received much more in service and quality than I expected. The staff seemed to know what I needed before I did. They were knowledgeable, answered every question and were anxious to help in any way they could. The staff far exceeded my expectations with the schedule--they were way ahead of time. These are the best prices out there, and believe me, I\'ve looked. It couldn\'t be easier to find this business or get to it.

With this year's Winter Olympics really raising awareness of disciplines such as Slopestyle and Halfpipe, many people are now wondering how they can try these styles out for themselves. The good news is you don't have to travel far to give it a go, with countless dry slopes and snowdomes around the country offering freestyle lessons, one-on-one coaching and competitions for all ages and abilities. Stick with it and before you know it you could be smashing out those triple corks, backside rodeo 540's and cab 180's just like the pros!
The basic requirements for beginning to learn these tricks are that you can confidently perform linked turns on either your skis or your snowboard. You also need to be able to ride switch (backwards for skiers, riding with the opposite leg forward for snowboarders). This takes a lot of practice, but many beginner freestyle lessons focus on helping you to grasp riding switch before they begin to teach you the rest.
Wondering what all this stalefish-fakie-ally-ooping-lincoln-looping means? We've broke down some of the freestyle lingo to help you get your head around it all…
Kicker – Another name for either a man-made or natural jump.
Jib – Any obstacle that you can jump on or over eg. Rails, boxes, tree stumps, etc.
Grab – To grab either your board or your skis in the air, using either hand.
Air – Any kind of jump off the ground.
Switch/Fakie – On skis, this is riding backwards. On a snowboard this is riding with the opposite leg forward.
Stalefish Air – A jump in the air, using your rear hand to grab the heel edge of the board between the bindings.
Air-to-Fakie – enter the halfpipe forwards then come back down backwards, without any rotation.
Spin on – A spin before landing on the rail.
Spin out – A spin to exit the rail.
180, 360, 540, 720 – These numbers are the number of degrees in which the skier or boarder rotates. You can perform different moves with varying degrees of rotation, for example backside 180. 180 degrees is half a turn, 360 a full turn, 540 one and a half turns, 720 is two complete rotations, etc.
Lincoln Loop – A flip to the side, almost like a cartwheel with no hands, except the legs are tucked into the body.
A Lincoln Loop
Rodeo – A cross between a flip and a spin. This move is an off-angle backflip, where your feet come over your head at an angle rather than directly above.
Misty – The same as a Rodeo, except you flip forwards instead of back.
Cork – An off-axis spin, where the feet whip round to your side, rather than over your head as they would with a back flip.
In this video, the first move is a Backside Rodeo 540 and the second move is a Backside Corkscrew 540
Backside 180 – 180 degree rotation in the air, turning clockwise for regular and anti-clockwise for goofy.
Ally-Oop – For this trick, as you come up into the air you turn 360 degrees, grabbing your board or skis before landing to face the same way that you started.
How To Frontside Alley-Oop
In addition to all of these courses, you'll also find that Maverix Snow, Definition Camps, Salomon Grom Ski Camps and Grounded Freestyle Coaching all offer day courses in freestyle at various snowdomes.
These are not all of the possible freestyle options that you can experience here in the UK – most dry ski slopes also offer freestyle coaching sessions. If you want to learn halfpipe, then you'll have to venture a little further unfortunately as currently the only UK halfpipe is situated in Cairngorm, Scotland. However, most snowdomes offer quarterpipes which are a good starter to get you learning some of those halfpipe tricks.
Here's a video featuring the Team GB Freestyle athletes to get you feeling inspired. Enjoy!
What's this? Club Med is launching a new resort? Yes, Club Med are opening a brand new 4 Trident resort in the popular French ski area in Val Thorens in the 3 Vallées. The resort will be called Val Thorens Sensations and is due to open on the 14th December 2014. They've used crowdsourcing to help decide on certain aspects of the new build, starting a Facebook community where followers helped to make key decisions, such as whether there should be an indoor climbing wall (they voted yes!). Sensations is set to operate from November to May, promising optimal snow cover during that time due to the resort's high altitude.
Who is the new resort aimed at? The new resort will be aimed at groups of friends, singles, couples and families with teenage children. The resort is accessible to young children too (from 2 years up), however, there will no kids clubs or kids entertainment programmes running.
So what makes this newbie stand out from the other Club Med resorts then? The resort will stand out from the rest due to its contemporary design, which features huge bay windows that will give guests a fantastic view of the surrounding snow-covered mountains. There are 3 sun-facing terraces and the majority of rooms promise to have breathtaking mountain views. Each of the rooms will be one of four different categories – there will be 361 Club Rooms, 12 Deluxe Rooms, 5 Junior Suites and 6 Suites.
We know that Club Med is all inclusive, so what dining options will this new resort provide me with? There will be 2 onsite restaurants which will stay open from 7.30am till midnight, so whether you're an early riser or a night owl then there will be something to suit you. One of the restaurants will provide a buffet set up and the other will be a concept restaurant, catering for the more gourmet tastes and offering a menu of local cuisine. For those dying to get out on the slopes, a self-service take-away corner will provide guests with a range of hot drinks and snacks, which can be taken out onto the slopes with them.
What about the après ski? If you're after a drink, then Sensations will have the choice of 2 bars and a packed schedule of evening entertainment. One bar will offer a more cosy and intimate setting, whereas the other will provide a more open and lively atmosphere. From 3.30pm each day, the Wine Cellar and Grocery Store will play host to a range of wine tasting sessions, after which guests can purchase goodies to take home with them.
Can I hire equipment direct from the resort? Val Thorens Sensations have struck up a partnership with Rossignol and will also be supplying equipment by Lacroix and Dupraz, meaning that guests will be able to rent top quality boots, boards, skis and more. Once you've got your equipment sorted, you'll also have the option to take ski and snowboard lessons, which are included in the price and aimed at all levels from beginner through to advanced. The resort is also in a ski-in ski-out position, making it super easy to get out on the slopes once you've got your equipment.
When I'm not on the slopes, what other activities can I do? Sensations will put a special focus on health, fitness and wellbeing, offering a range of additional packages which include fitness training, nutritional advice and spa treatments. If you want a break from the slopes, or you just fancy working on your fitness a bit more, then a range of fitness classes are included in the price of your stay. Zumba, Body-Balance and Pilates are just some of the classes on offer. Alternatively, if you're a little shy about training in a room full of others, you can choose to join in with a toning workout video, which will be available from the privacy of your room. For all those gym and weight fanatics out there, there is a fully equipped cardio and weight training zone. If you're on the lookout for a bit more adrenaline then there is also a large 10 metre high climbing wall with 4 routes, mountain biking, sledging, snow mobiling and boardercross. If you fancy a swim, then you can head to a nearby pool, where you'll receive free entry as a Val Thorens Sensations guest.
I'm too tired for more exercise, what can I do to relax here? After a hard day on the slopes, why not relax with a Turkish Bath? All customers will have free access to the onsite Turkish Bath and will have the option to pay extra for spa treatments to wind down after an exhausting day.
Spa treatments aren't really my thing, what else can I do? If you're still looking for more to do, then the resort will also house a tenpin bowling alley and a shopping boutique. Also on offer is a selection of 'a la carte' excursions, which will allow guests to pick and choose outings as they please. These will include a Baroque art guided tour, a traditional themed evening in a yurt and a snowscooter outing.
What else can you tell me about Sensations? This new resort promises to be very digitally focused and wi-fi will even be available out on the slopes. High speed internet, ranging from free packages to high speed paid packages will be available in the hotel. The resort even has its own app so that users can look at the daily schedule of events, find ski buddies and share content such as images and music. In most public areas, digital screens will display information relating to daily activities and weather conditions. To top it all off, Sensations promises effective queue management to heighten guests overall experience, making it as stress free, fun and relaxed as possible.

I don't think this indicates a place of existence (February is not located in Japan), but a limitation/focusing on the statement that follows: Considering the weather in Japan, February is the coldest month. Out of mountains that are in Japan, Mount Fuji is the tallest, etc.

This lawyer failed to look after my rights as an appointed executor. He communicated with another relative about the case even though I told him to stop. He even advised me to take an action against my interests. I fear his misrepresentation may have caused me to lose my inheritance.
