|Technology executive
Lisa A. Hook (born February 28, 1958) is an American technology executive serving as president and CEO of Neustar, a publicly traded global information and analytics services company. Previously, Hook held leadership positions at several Fortune 500 companies, including AOL, Time Warner and Viacom. She also worked for venture capital firms and at the Federal Communications Commission.[1]
Business background[edit]
Hook was named CEO of Neustar in October 2010.[2] Prior to serving as CEO, Hook spent two years as the company's chief operating officer, strengthening its market position and building partnerships with content and media industries.[3] In January 2010, The Washington Post reported that under Hook's leadership, Neustar was chosen by a consortium of Hollywood studios and technology executives to manage a system whereby consumers could access movies and other video entertainment from multiple digital devices.[4] In June 2011, Hook was the 2nd highest paid female CEO in the Washington, DC region.[5]
From 2006 to 2007, Hook served as CEO of Sunrocket, a privately held VoIP company.[6] After about 13 months with Hook at the helm, SunRocket went bankrupt, abruptly ending service and failing to inform its subscribers in a timely fashion.[7][8] From 2000 to 2004, Hook held several senior leadership positions at AOL, including president of AOL Broadband, Premium & Developer Services. At the time of her appointment, The New York Times reported that Hook's "self-deprecating sense of humor masks an ability to solve complex business problems."[9]
Before working at AOL, Hook was a partner at Brera Capital Partners LLC, a private equity firm focused on investing in media and telecommunications. From 1989 to 1995, she worked at Time Warner, rising to Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Telecommunications.[10]
Government service[edit]
In 2011, President Barack Obama named Hook to the National Security Telecommunications Advisory Committee,[11] a group that advises the White House on national security and emergency preparedness issues with regard to telecommunication services.[12]
From 1987 to 1989, Hook served as senior legal adviser to the chairman of the Federal Communications Commission.[13] She later said of this experience: "Being at the FCC in the Reagan administration was pure adrenaline. We were highly deregulatory and changed a number of policies."[14]
Board service[edit]
Hook has been a Neustar director since October 2010. She also serves on the board of Reed Elsevier, an Amsterdam-based global publisher and information provider that includes services such as LexisNexis.[15] In the past, Hook served on the boards of Covad Communications Group, Inc., Time Warner Telecom Inc., National Geographic Ventures, and K12, Inc.
In a volunteer capacity, Hook also serves on the board of directors of The Ocean Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to conserving the world's oceans.[16] Hook previously served on the board of the National Public Radio Foundation.
In 2007, Hook was an honoree of DirectWomen, a program designed to identify, develop and support select accomplished female attorneys to become directors on the boards of U.S. companies.[17]
Personal and family[edit]
Hook holds a bachelor's degree from Duke University and a law degree from the Dickinson School of Law.[18] Lisa's partner is Washington attorney Peter Gillon.[19] They live in Washington D.C. with her son and his two sons.[20] She is an avid cook and runner, and participates in the PEN/Faulkner Foundation, a charitable organization which supports the art of writing.[21]
In high school, Hook lived for one year on a reindeer farm in northern Finland. She also spent a summer in a communist youth camp near Yalta, in Ukraine.[22]

'I have always particularly loved old fabrics and I became obsessed with the idea of recreating the look and feel of old linens,' says Caroline. A fortuitous meeting with Angus Nicol, the managing director of Peter Greig & Co in Kirkcaldy, the last major linen mill in Britain, gave her the 'in' she needed. Working with printers in Cheshire and finish-ers in Lancashire, Caroline has developed a range of uniquely aged fabrics that sit perfectly in period properties. It was named Inchyra Designs, and the first range was shown at Decorex in 2011.'

Target: U.S. District Judge B. Lynn Winmill
Goal: Thank Judge Winmill for striking down the 20 week abortion ban in Idaho.
Formerly, Idaho was counted as one of ten states with a ban on 20 week abortions. This ban was the consequence of the "fetal pain law." According to the Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade ruling, no states are constitutionally allowed to place "undue burden" on women seeking abortions, but that hasn't stopped conservatives from trying to do so through various unconstitutional bans. Now, these bans are being challenged for the restrictions they place upon reproductive rights.
In the case of Idaho, a woman named Jennie Linn McCormack became an unfortunate victim of the anti-woman legislation when she purchased abortion pills online. She was arrested and could have faced up to five years in prison for this choice, but when the case was appealed to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, Judge Harry Pregerson commented that "prosecuting women for terminating pregnancies won't end abortion, it will just create a whole new class of criminals." Pregerson is absolutely correct in this assessment, as Jennie Linn McCormack's case testifies to.
There are many sound medical reasons why a person might abort at 20 weeks or beyond. These reasons can include fetal deformities, missing brains or brain damage, septic pregnancies which have become dangerous to the mother, and many other potential causes. Eight of the states which banned abortions at 20 weeks did not recognize any provisions for "medically futile" pregnancies. Now, Judge Winmill has ruled Idaho's abortion ban unconstitutional, and pregnant people in Idaho are no longer potential criminals. Sign this petition to thank Judge Winmill for doing away with this "new class of criminals" in Idaho.
Dear Judge Winmill,
I am writing to thank you for striking down Idaho's unconstitutional "fetal pain" law that banned abortions at or after 20 weeks. By upholding Roe v. Wade's ruling that such bans place "undue burden" on pregnant people seeking abortions, your ruling will now in effect restore the status of pregnant people within the state of Idaho. Under the 20 week abortion ban, pregnant people seeking medically necessary pregnancy terminations for any number of reasons were treated as criminals, as the case in question proved.
Thank you on behalf of Jennie Linn McCormack and any other pregnant individuals and on behalf of women everywhere. Your ruling has given me hope that many of the unconstitutional abortion bans in other states might now be challenged and overturned. With the seemingly daily barrage of attacks on Roe v. Wade from conservatives, lately it feels as though all news concerning reproductive rights has been terrible. Thank you for finally giving me some good news when it comes to reproductive justice.

Ephrins are divided into the ephrin-A (EFNA) class and the ephrin-B (EFNB) class based on their structures and sequence relationships. Ephrin receptors make up the largest subgroup of the receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) family. EphB6 is an unusual Eph receptor, lacking catalytic capacity due to alterations in its kinase domain. Interestingly, increased metastatic activity is associated with reduced EphB6 receptor expression in several tumor types, including breast cancer. This emphasizes the potential of EphB6 to act as a suppressor of cancer aggressiveness. EphB6 suppress cancer invasiveness through c-Cbl-dependent signaling, morphologic changes, and cell attachment and indicate that EphB6 may represent a useful prognostic marker and a promising target for therapeutic approaches. EphB6 can both positively and negatively regulate cell adhesion and migration, and suggest that tyrosine phosphorylation of the receptor by an Src family kinase acts as the molecular switch for the functional transition. In addition, Ephrin-B2 may be a physiological ligand for the EphB6 receptor.

|Unknown (aka Anuvilis)
|Unknown (Humanoid)
|The Sith Empire
|Side of the Force:
|Thaxilian Chief Strategist (Formerly)
|Imperial Sith Master
|Underlord of Dosha
|Force Affinity:
Physical Description
Anuvilis, like the stereotypical Sith Masters so often depicted, is of slightly below average human height coming in at five feet ten inches and is completely covered in a draping, voluminous black robe. The robe obfuscates his features significantly, covering all but his hands and face. His wears gloves over his hands, and his hood leaves his face basically unclear enough to determine what he is, only that he is humanoid.
Though it's difficult to tell due to the large robe, Anuvilis is quite thin as he has very little musculature, very likely due to his massive reliance on the Force and very little physical training.
Psychological Description
Anuvilis can be described as methodical, patient, and calm. He rarely becomes overtly angry and is quite adept at containing any emotions that may surface within him. His plans are generally well thought out and lack any sense of urgency; he believes that anything that must be done too quickly will probably fail.
Anuvilis is also somewhat solitary. He prefers not to take a direct leadership position, but rather to work from behind the scenes, though there are a few people he feels more familiar with.
In rather stark contrast with the image above is the fact that Anuvilis can completely without moral thought or inhibition. Crushing his opponents underfoot and anything up to outright murder mean little to him, so long as whatever goals he deems fit are upheld and achieved.
Favored Force Uses
Anuvilis is an extremely powerful Force user, far beyond most of his peers and even some of superiors. Devoting his life to the advancement of his powers as well as having an extremely advanced connection to the Force has given Anuvilis the ability to wield it as a potent weapon.
Disliking the more subtle powers such as cloak, Anuvilis is a master at wielding the direct-damaging and destructive manipulations of the Force such as lightning, and can, with difficulty, even wield the very potent abilities such as destruction and crush, albeit at a lesser capability that some of the Sith Lords.
Anuvilis has also developed an interesting and unique usage of the Force in conjunction with his lightsabers to counter his distinct lack of physical ability. Anuvilis uses the Force to levitate and battle with multiple lightsabers from a distance, allowing him to remain untouched by battle whilst forcing his enemies to face weapons with great maneuverability.
Anuvilis' main weapon is the Force and his three lightsabers, which he almost always wields by means of levitation. When forced into melee, Anuvilis has a fourth lightsaber hidden in his robe that is available for emergency use.
Few Masters can come close to Anuvilis sheer power over the Force allows him to dominate in conflict from afar and in Force battles. This also gives him a great advantage against multiple, weaker opponents due to his powers' area of effect.
He also has a great deal of knowledge on often obscure subjects.
Due to his massive reliance and single-minded focus on the Force and arcane and esoteric subjects of learning, Anuvilis is remarkably incapable with more common pursuits that fall far outside his area of expertise. He is also extremely weak at direct combat, and when forced into it can quickly go from dominating to struggling.
Relevant History
Anuvilis came into the galaxy's view under the Trandoshan Warlord, and later Dark Lord of the Sith, Zynactus Thaxilius. Trandoshans are known for many things, but planning isn't one of them, so Thaxilius knew he had stumbled upon a proverbial gold mine upon finding Anuvilis. Thaxilius recruited the Dark Side Master to his side as a strategist, arcane knowledge source, and general all around advisor, and it was in this capacity that Anuvilis served throughout most of his career.
Anuvilis proved very adept at his job, taking well to the behind-the-curtain machinations and plots as well as the access he was afforded to some of the rarer positions in the world, such as the Sith relics which then, in the pre-Revan times, were much less heavily controlled, as there was no centralized Sith authority.
In time, Thaxilius took the Imperial Throne of Korriban as Dark Lord of the Sith, which afforded Anuvilis unprecedented opportunities to continue his own goals toward the acquisition of greater knowledge and capabilities. He was granted a large role in the initial reorganization of the ancestral Sith worlds and put a great deal of effort into ensuring the preservation of the artifacts and the reclamation of important Sith artifacts. Anuvilis continued to serve in this position, as well as an advisor to the Dark Lord, until the fall of Shadow.
With Thaxilius dead, Anuvilis moved his primary allegiance to his successor, the now Imperial Lord Grukh who controlled the Dosha sector. Never the less, Anuvilis also maintained his independence, even so much as to maintain personal quarters on Korriban. During this post-Shadow time, during the reign of Dark Lord Vilan, Anuvilis trained his first apprentice, Kamira Nurityen as well.

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
Good evening. Actually, there are no advantages to the landlord; rather, the disadvantage is that the corporation is a limited liability entity and usually the person is leasing through a corporation to avoid personal liability for the lease. As a landlord, you would want to not only have the corporation on the lease, but also require the individual owners of the corporation to personally guarantee the lease on behalf of the corporation. You would also want to check the credit of both the corporation and the individual owners.
I hope this has given you the guidance you were seeking. I wish you the best of luck!

The Cardinal protector of England was an appointed crown-cardinal of England from 1492 until 1539. A cardinal protector is the representative of a Roman Catholic nation or organization within the College of Cardinals, appointed by the pope. The role was terminated as a result of the English Reformation.
The role of national protectorships within the College developed during the fifteenth century, due to developments in the emergence of national monarchies and Renaissance diplomacy.[1] Cardinal protectors of Roman Catholic religious orders date back farther to the thirteenth century.[1] According to King Henry VIII, the cardinal protector "indueth as it were our owne Person, for the defence of Us and our Realme in al matiers [in the Curia]...touching the same".[2] The cardinal protector represented the monarch in consistory, especially in cases where the right of investiture was divided between the pope and the monarch, and also led the English diplomatic corps in Rome.[2]
Although earlier cardinals had filled similar roles, "the existence of national protectorships was first openly and regularly recognized only" by Pope Julius II.[3] The terms 'cardinal protector' and 'cardinal procurator' were "used very loosely and sometimes interchangeably during the fifteenth century".[4] The earliest reference to a 'cardinal protector' of England dates from 1492, but according to Wilkie, this results from a confusion between this office and that of cardinal procurator.[4]
Unlike other national cardinal protectors, the cardinal protectors of England, Scotland, and Ireland were generally chosen exclusively by the pope. The cardinal was "imposed from above, rather than chosen" and often had no direct relationship with the governments of these countries.[5][6] The English cardinal protector played a large role in English ecclesiastical appointments, and a substantial role in similar appointments in Scotland and Ireland.[7]
Piccolomini (1492-1503)
Francesco Piccolomini, the future Pope Pius III, was the first cardinal protector of England, elevated on the initiative of King Henry VII, and also the first officially approved cardinal protector of "any nation whatever".[8] Henry VII viewed good relations with Rome as a protection against domestic and foreign enemies and sent Christopher Urswick, his "almoner and trusted councillor" to Rome after receiving a bull of dispensation to marry Elizabeth of York.[9] When Henry VII first sought a cardinal protector in 1492, he feared that many of the English bishops would support his Yorkist oppponents (to whom they owed their appointments).[10]
A variety of other disagreements existed, such as the papal income tax and the refusal of the pope to create John Morton, the archbishop of Canterbury, a cardinal; Innocent VII had passed over Morton in his first consistory, despite creating two French cardinals.[11] Nor had John Sherwood, the English ambassador in Rome, been created a cardinal in 1484, despite the request of King Richard III.[12] Piccolomini's creation as cardinal protector was requested by Henry VII in a letter congratulating the newly elected Pope Alexander VI, and was confirmed in a response which was probably written by Giovanni Gigli.[13]
Piccolomini was already the protector of the Camaldese Benedictines and was close to German princes, although he was not the German protector in any official sense, and his protectorship of England is "the first official one of any cardinal which can be firmly established".[14] Henry VII did not object to Piccolomini's German connections, even viewing them as an asset against the French.[15]
Castellesi (1503-1504)
The appointment of Adriano Castellesi as cardinal on 31 May 1503 "eclipsed England's cardinal protector", with appointments to the English sees thereafter being referred through Castellesi instead of through Piccolomini.[16] Piccolomini was himself elected as Pope Pius III on 22 September 1503, only to die less than a month later, on October 18; Castellesi did not vote for him and Piccolomini was chosen for his perceived neutrality rather than for his English connections.[17] According to the account of Castellesi, Pius III acknowledged him as his de facto successor as protector.[17]
Castellesi was a favourite of Pope Alexander VI, which became a liability during the reign of Pope Julius II.[18] During Julius II's reign, Castellesi, "although neither requesting nor mentioning the office of protector of England, certainly presented himself to Henry VII as the cardinal responsible for English affairs in the Curia".[18] In an attempt to secure his status against the intrigues of Silvestro Gigli, Castellesi donated his residence, the Palazzo Giraudi Torlonia on the present Via della Conciliazione, to Henry VII.[19] In 1504, Henry VII named six official members of his embassy, headed by Castellesi, and also including Gilbert Talbot, Richard Beere, Robert Sherborne, Silvestro Gigli, and Edward Scott.[20]
Paris de Grassi, the master of papal ceremonies, referred to Castellesi as "Regis Protector" in his notes of a meeting between the embassy and the pope.[20]
della Rovere (1504-1508)
A letter from Julius II to Henry VII dated July 6, 1504, remarks that the king had chosen the pope's cardinal-nephew Galeotto della Rovere as cardinal protector; the letter does not mention Castellesi.[21] della Rovere's selection was likely arranged by Gigli.[21] Castellesi was compensated by being promoted to the wealthier see of Bath and Wells.[21] Castellesi lost favor with the king and fled Rome until the death of Julius II.[22]
Rovere died on September 11, 1508, leaving England without a cardinal protector.[23] Sherbone and Hugh Inge were back in England; Scott was dead; Gigli was in England as nuncio.[23] The "only man on whose loyalty the king could truly rely" was Christopher Fisher, who was a "single, bumbling amateur" compared to the more seasoned curial diplomats who surrounded him.[23] Henry VII himself died on April 21, 1509.[23]
Another cardinal-nephew, Sisto della Rovere, who received the vice-chancellorship and all the benefices of his half-brother, was not explicitly named as protector, although he wrote to Henry VII stating his intent to "maintain his brother's friendships".[24] Henry VIII replied to Sisto that he considered his friendship especially valuable, asserting that Sisto had been close to his father.[25] There is no evidence that Sisto was offered the protectorship.[25]
Aldiosi (1509-1510)
Cardinal Francesco Adiosi may have become cardinal protector, but this appointment "cannot be exactly established" as his only surviving letters to England do not mention the protectorate.[26] Adiosi is explicitly mentioned as protector in a 1509 letter from Christopher Bainbridge (the first English curial cardinal since the death of Adam Easton in 1397[27]), by which point Adiosi and go-between Girolamo Bonvisio were on the "brink of disgrace".[28]
Bonvisio disclosed the contents of his discussions with the king to a French agent and confessed his being employed by Aldiosi under threat of torture; by this point Adiosi was no longer protector.[28] According to an April 6, 1510 letter from the Venetian ambassador, the king dismissed Adiosi as protector and gave the post to Sisto della Rovere.[29] There is no direct evidence that Sisto ever received the official title before he died in March 1517.[29] Until the death of Julius II, Bainbridge "filled the vacuum, real or in effect, in the protectorship of England".[27]
Castellesi returned to Rome on the death of Julius II on February 21, 1513 for the papal conclave, 1513; although Castellesi "tactually" voted for Bainbridge on the second ballot, the two inevitably came into conflict as "rival representatives of England".[30] The lack of consistorial records, which would list which cardinals referred the nominations of which bishops, are missing for this period, making it impossible to assess the extent of Bainbridge's role.[31]
Medici (1514-1523)
In 1514, Gigli (as the agent of Wosley and Henry VIII) arranged for another cardinal-nephew Giulio de'Medici (future Pope Clement VII) to be cardinal protector of England.[21] Medici's letter of appointment makes no reference to Sisto della Rovere.[29] A February 8, 1514 letter from Pope Leo X to Henry VIII of England flatters the king for having elevated the pope's cardinal-nephew and cousin as protector.[32] The pope's brother Giuliano de' Medici was also made a Knight of the Garter (just as Guidobaldo II della Rovere had been made when della Rovere had been made protector).[32]
Bainbridge was "short-circuited" by the appointment of Medici, although he continued to play a role until his death on July 14, 1514.[33] Gigli was accused of having played a role in the death of Bainbridge and Medici was charged with examining the facts, concluding that Gigli was innocent.[34] The period between Piccolomini and Medici (from 1503 to 1514) is one where the role of the protector was not well-defined.[35] The importance of the office increased significantly with the appointment of Medici in 1514, due in no small part to the friendship between Medici and Wolsey.[36] According to Wilkie, "its importance stemmed from the special relationship of the papacy with England as the most reliable supporter of papal independence".[36]
Medici accepted the protectorship of France as well in 1516, meeting Francis I of France personally in Bologna, much to the "discomfiture of England".[37] Medici was elected Clement VII on November 19, 1523.
Campeggio (1524-1539)
Lorenzo Campeggio was close to Medici and served as cardinal protector to Germany at the time of Medici's election.[38] Campeggio received a variety of appointments from Clement VII before the Henry VIII chose him as protector on February 22, 1524 (conditional on the pope's acceptance of Wolsey as legate for life).[39]
Campeggio found his loyalty divided when he was appointed with Wolsey to judge the issue of the requested annulment of Henry VIII of England from Catherine of Aragon, the aunt of Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor.[40] Campeggio came out in favor of the legitimacy of the marriage, after considerable delay in traveling and reviewing the canonical evidence.[41] The final sentence in the case was handed down in Rome in 1534, the same year the English Parliament passed the First Act of Supremacy.[42] Henry VIII was particularly displeased by Campeggio's "constant company with the emperor" in the years prior to his verdict and Campeggio's rapidly growing income, having been granted the bishpric of Huesca and Jaca in 1530, and the bishopric of Mallorca in 1532, both by Charles V.[43]
In January 1531, Campeggio was dismissed as cardinal protector, although it did not become public knowledge until May.[44] At first it was unclear whether Henry VIII intended to appoint a successor, with Giovanni Domenico de Cupis emerging as an active candidate in March 1532.[45] The king favored Alessandro Farnese (future Pope Paul III), and instructed his ambassadors on March 21 to offer it to Farnese, and then de Cupis or Giovanni del Monte (future Pope Julius III) in the event that Farnese declined or was not approved.[45]
Not knowing that Henry VIII had already secretly married the pregnant Anne Boleyn, Clement VII decided to reach out to the monarch by appointing Thomas Cranmer, an outspoken proponent of Henry VIII's annulment, as archbishop of Canterbury.[46] A threatened excommunication was handed down when Cranmer pronounced Henry VIII's marriage null and void; Henry VIII responded by telling Campeggio's vicar general for Salisbury to stop all revenues from his bishopric until further notice.[47] Henry VIII then claimed the authority to act on behalf of Campeggio in making various ecclesiastical appointments.[48] The fifth session of the Reformation Parliament deprived Campeggio and Girolamo Ghinucci of their English sees (unless they swore loyalty to the king).[49] Unaware of this statute, two days later on March 23, 1534 Campeggio entered Consistory for the final ruling against annulment.[50]
According to Wilkie, "years of cooperation from both popes and cardinal protectors had taught a wilful Henry VIII to expect to have his way over the church of England".[51] Clement VII died on September 25 before learning of the denial of papal authority on March 31 by the Convocation of Canterbury.[52] In the papal conclave, 1534, Campeggio was the only cardinal to oppose Farnese's proposal for non-secret voting and the only cardinal not to kiss the feet of the newly elected Farnese as Paul III.[53]
Attempts at reconciliation
Many in Rome still thought reconciliation with England was possible, and Paul III elevated two English cardinals, John Fisher (at the time imprisoned and sentenced to death by Henry VIII) and Girolamo Ghinucci.[54] The execution of Fisher prompted Paul III to excommunicate and depose Henry VIII.[54] While Campeggio lived, no attempt was made in Rome to fill any of the thirteen episcopal vacancies in England.[55]
Queen Mary I of England briefly reconciled with Rome and appointed Reginald Pole as archbishop of Canterbury.[56] However, "papal restoration in England was doomed even before it was accomplished" when Mary I married Philip II of Spain.[56] In 1555, Pope Paul IV named a new cardinal protector, Giovanni Morone, but the queen did not confirm the nomination and Campeggio remained the last cardinal protector "chosen by the crown".[56]
Meanwhile, loyalty to the pope became a defining feature of the movement for Irish nationalism and bishops appointed by the pope garnered a larger following than the hierarchy of the church of Ireland appointed by the crown.[57] According to Wilkie, "the cardinal protectors had assisted in the loss of England to the papacy, and Ireland remained loyal to the papacy in spite of them".[57]

EuroMillions bonus draw this Friday will make 25 people millionaires
A EuroMillions Raffle draw this Friday will make 25 ticket holders millionaires.
The draw, which will be open to players in nine countries, including Ireland, will be open to every ticket holder.
Each line played will come with a Raffle code and 25 of them will be chosen at random on Friday night, winning the lucky ticket holder a cool €1,000,000.
The system is similar to the Ireland-only raffle that hands out 10 €5,000 prizes in each draw to Irish ticket holders.
The overall EuroMillions jackpot, worth over €50,000,000 was won in Belgium on Tuesday so the jackpot this Friday will be €17m.
Now that would make the Bank Holiday weekend go off with a bang.

Description Edit
The Montors (Montor East and West) were twin cities on Sosaria during Ultima III, where courage was especially upheld, having all the shops needed for the warrior. The twin cities were located in southern Sosaria.
During the time of Ultima I, Montor was one unified city. At some moment between Ultima I and Ultima III, it split into Montor East and West.
Montor West contained a prison, a weapon shop/armourer, and a grocery/tavern called Ambrosian Delights, besides several guards. Montor East contained a weapon shop (Acme Weaponry), an armoury (Ace Armoury), and a tavern (The Brown Orc), besides more guards.
The inhabitants of the Montors knew a lot about the Four Cards. In Montor East, they told the Stranger that there were four cards, which were very useful and should be "inserted" into four panels. In Montor West, they said that the Stranger should "search" for the cards, and also "search" the Shrines. They also mentioned that the Marks were useful, as well as Exotic Weapons and Exotic Armour.
The named inhabitants of the Montors include Jolly Joe and Baby Bob in Montor East, and Shamino and Sentri in Montor West.
In Ultima III, Montor East was a particularly easy place to steal from the vendors as they would not move with you and if the alarm was raised it was very easy to escape and then return to steal again after a little bit. You did have to wait a while before the stores were replenished.
The twin cities started to fall into ruin after the great cataclysm that formed Britannia after Ultima III, while Jhelom became the city of Courage. The remaining inhabitants, who didn't want to accept any other virtues beside Courage, left Britannia together with the mages of Moon and beauty-worshipers of old Fawn. They eventually reached the Serpent Isle, where they founded the new city of Monitor.
This was the end of the twin cities of Montor, and by Ultima IV, every trace of their existence had vanished from the face of the world.
Trivia Edit
- In Ultima I, the cities of Montor (in the Lands of Lord British), John (in the Lands of the Feudal Lords), Imagination (in the Lands of the Dark Unknown) and Bulldozer (in the Lands of Danger and Despair) were exactly the same. They had the same layout, stores, and people in it. Their only difference was their name and location in the map. They were basically the same city copied over in the different continents.

Telephone Bidding
Telephone bidding is only available during our Fine Art sales, we do not operate telephone bidding during our fortnightly sales.
Telephone bids are subject to a minimum estimate of £250 per lot. Lots which are bought for less than £250 via telephone bidding will incur a £10 per lot (plus VAT) charge. As the number of telephone lines are limited, early booking is recommended.
Both telephone and commission bids must be guaranteed by credit/debit card or bank details.
We only accept telephone bidding registrations up to the day prior to the lot in question going under the hammer. At the point of registration all new bidders will be required to submit proof of identification and proof of address. This can be faxed to 0191 4303001 or e-mailed to firstname.lastname@example.com. Alternatively you may register for a "My Anderson & Garland" account where you will be able to upload identification documents and submit telephone line booking requests on eligible lots. Only when this identification is received can the registration process be completed and your telephone line will then be secured for you.
There are inherent dangers in this, understandably, growing practise. Despite our best efforts Anderson and Garland Ltd. may be unable to contact the intending bidder at the appropriate time (we also recommend that you leave an "emergency cover bid" in case we are unable to reach you. All such arrangements are therefore made entirely at the intending bidder's risk.
For further information please telephone a member of our team on:

Anything that uses electricity.
Am I correct in assuming that this will NOT work with this battery, since that's a 3-cell battery, and this is designed for a single-cell battery? Can anyone clarify?
EDIT: Or maybe I can use that battery with this product, because it's still 3.7V and the batteries are in parallel?
This right here. Someone who knows how to do 3d printing or whatnot get on that (i.e. not me). PLEASE?!
Oh, I got it back together. Probably not the easiest way, but it works now.
I'm really happy I didn't order the tilt-pan bracket, having finally seen the note at the bottom of the product description.
Anyway, for $12 I'm not expecting precision machining, but this thing leaves a lot to be desired. It gets the job done, but required a fair amount of pushing and shoving to get that gear in place. The clutch was also a bit difficult to get on the medium servo, but it does fit. Just be sure you don't accidentally open the clutch, as it's only held together with magnets.
Overall it's not bad, but I'm waiting for that tilt-pan bracket!
I got snazzy box and hacker stickers. No rubber feet (would have been nice, but whatever). Also no anti-stat bag (again, whatever).
Yeah, it looks like the LED is present. I'm not sure if it's backwards or not. It's really small and I don't have a magnifying glass (dumb). Other than that the board WAS working well. In my excitement to just get it working, I soldered some wires to the appropriate holes. After that I decided that I'd rather have male pin headers, so I tried desoldering (using wick) the wires and in the process managed to lift the pad off the dir pin. :( Anyway, it still works, but it's now going to require an ugly looking hack to work properly.
Just got mine today. Had it up and running with a PIC18F4550 in about an hour (including solder time). Pretty easy setup.
I was under the impression that there was supposed to be an LED in one corner of the board. Either that's been removed in this latest version, or mine doesn't work. I mean, my board works fine and controls my stepper just fine, but there is no LED to indicate that power has been applied.

The sales of polyester products kept weak and made the PTA market stay downward. Judged from the spot prices, domestic discussions of PTA accumulatively dropped 200 Yuan/ton to 8900 Yuan/ton. Taiwan goods decreased 10 dollars to 1200 dollars/ton. Korean goods decreased 5 dollars/ton to 1185 dollars/ton.
As for the futures, the whole market was also downtrend this week. By the close on Friday, contract 1205 of PTA futures dropped to 9134 Yuan/ton in Zhengzhou Commodity of Exchange. Compared with the close price on Monday, it lost 74 Yuan/ton, down 0.8%.
In the crude oil market, the geopolitical issue got much released and the supportive power for increase of oil prices became weaker. Besides, influenced by weak consumption in U.S. and slowing-down Chinese economy, the expenditure of crude oil decreased apparently. Therefore, the overall tendency of the oil market was fluctuating and adjusting. Ended by Thursday, April Futures of New York crude oil closed at 106.58 dollars/bbl, down 0.02 dollars compared to the price before. Brent April futures increased 1.79 dollars/bbl to 125.44 dollars/bbl.
PX price was also greatly affected by the oil prices. Moreover, the stagnant downstream market made PX prices drop and the whole polyester industrial chain also showed sliding tendency. In the market, Asian PX price accumulatively dropped 18 dollars/ton to 1640 dollars (Thursday) within one week. European PX price dropped to 1561 dollars on market.
At present, the performance of the downstream market, which was at the loss level, still determined the trend in PTA market. For the purpose of offsetting the loss, most PTA manufacturer chose to upgrade the settlement prices and lead the cost pressure transform to the downstream market. Hence, the profit of downstream polyester products was scarce and the production-marketing of the manufacturer dropped. The leading quotation of polyester bottle chips was around 11800 Yuan/ton.
To sum up, PTA market is difficult to have any big move due to weak demand in the terminal market and pale supportive power of upstream feedstock, PX. Therefore, PTA market will stay adjusting in a short term.

Discussion in 'Resolved Bug Reports' started by Defqon, Sep 30, 2010.
Not sure if it's a bug or it has been removed but close button (X) on member card is missing .
Just gone missing from some CSS changes earlier (presumably).
I never used it, I just clicked outside the membercard to make it go away.
Still better to have one
No arguing the point
am really missing the X-button.....
Escape button worked for me.
which "Escape button" ???
When all else fails: Alt+F4.
Actually Esc (on your keyboard) or clicking outside the membercard is much quicker anyway, so I'll keep doing that instead.
you mean "Format C:" ?
why go to all that trouble?? Just click anywhere outside the member card and it goes bye bye.
This is why X is definitely needed as it baffles people into trying convoluted things
Missing the X button as well.
It's back now.
I hit close before and I ended up on an error page telling me the site wasn't reachable... uukkkk!
Separate names with a comma.

Let us now praise Donald Trump -- on one count, anyway: He realizes he faces an ethics problem. Last week, when the president-elect talked to the New York Times, he was widely quoted as saying that conflict of interest laws don't apply to the president. "The law is totally on my side," he said. "The president can't have a conflict of interest."
But some of the news accounts left out what Trump said next: He acknowledged that the law is peculiar, and that it would look bad if he were to negotiate deals for golf courses or hotels from the Oval Office.
"The president of the United States is allowed to have whatever conflicts he or she wants -- but I don't want to go by that," he said.
As a technical, legal issue, Trump is right: Congress has exempted the president and vice president from conflict of interest laws. But that doesn't mean a president can't have an actual conflict of interest -- especially if his family business engages in real estate deals with foreign governments. And Trump acknowledged that.
"In theory, I don't have to do anything, but I would like to do something -- I would like to try and formalize something," he added. "I don't care about my business. ... I don't want to have people saying 'conflict.'"
So far, so good. The first step toward solving a problem is recognizing that you have one. But here's the catch: Trump isn't willing to do what most other recent presidents have done, which is to sell his assets and put the proceeds into a blind trust.
As a human matter, that's understandable. He's spent his life building the Trump Organization around his real estate holdings and his brand. Eventually, he planned to pass the business on to his children; selling it off would be a bitter pill.
If Trump were forced to sell the business now, he might be forced to accept fire sale prices -- and could even get stuck with a huge tax bill. (Officials who are covered by the conflict of interest law are exempt from the tax hit, but, remember, Trump isn't covered.)
Besides, a sale could also reveal that Trump's fortune is far smaller than he has claimed. No wonder he's resisting.
Trump's original solution was to hand the business to his children while he's in the White House, but he'd still be the principal owner. He could sell his holdings to the kids, but that wouldn't resolve every issue either, because any government decision that touched the company would still affect his family's wealth.
One option, ethics lawyers say, is for Trump to set up a formal "firewall" between himself and the business. He couldn't discuss the business with his children or anyone else, and he would have to recuse himself from policy questions that specifically affect the business; his children would have to get government approval for foreign business deals. All of this would need to be in writing, with a White House lawyer empowered to enforce it.
That might be workable -- but only if Trump means what he says about avoiding the appearance of conflicts. He hasn't measured up to that standard so far.
In the past two weeks, he urged British politicians to lobby against offshore wind farms that could be visible from Trump golf courses in Scotland; boosted his business partner in Turkey in a phone call with the Turkish president; and brought his daughter Ivanka, who handles Trump business in Asia, into a meeting with Japan's prime minister.
And when all that was inevitably reported, Trump erupted on Twitter. "Prior to the election it was well known that I have interests in properties all over the world," he wrote. "Only the crooked media makes this a big deal!"
But it wasn't only the media. Rep. Justin Amash, a tea party Republican from Michigan, responded with another tweet: "You rightly criticized Hillary for Clinton Foundation. If you have contracts with foreign (governments), it's certainly a big deal, too. @DrainTheSwamp."
The truth is, opportunities for conflicts of interest will arise whether Trump seeks them out or not. Entrepreneurs will try their luck. Foreign governments will seek to gain favor with the White House by cutting deals with the president's children, just as they can in a third world kleptocracy. What have they got to lose?
"It's inevitable," warned Richard Painter, chief ethics officer in the George W. Bush White House. "At some point, someone working for him is going to mix private and public interests, whether in the White House or the Trump Organization. Even if the president-elect has the best of intentions, he's not going to escape that kind of allegation. It's going to be a headache for him every other day."
Unless Trump sets tough, clear rules and a formalizes a way to enforce them, the result is predictable: opportunities for investigative journalists, openings for Democrats to paint the president as a profiteer and recurring bouts of discomfort for Republicans.
One more prediction: President Trump will rage against his critics, but he'll have only himself to blame.

". . .t's just hard to reply when your laughing that hard."
This from someone who pretends, along with others of their ilk, to understand current events...
"nuff said....
Hillary's conflicts were ok because she is a liberal.... and she was even a government employee as they happened.
Trump's conflicts will not be ok, because he has an "R" after his name.
Of course no one will pay attention to the media anymore as they have been rendered impotent.
It's not so much Trump supporters don't like your posts E.
It's just hard to reply when your laughing that hard.
You and Buzz are quite the entertainers.
Bitter, defeated but still entertaining.
Strange that the loons had no problem with Hillary's conflicts? No really, just funny that she was crystal clear clean because she had a (D) behind her name.
Never really expected them to take the loss well, but it's time to get over yourself!
I wonder what you call Hillary if Trump is a pathological liar unequalizer? Since Hillary has lied for forty years what is she unequalizer?
no we don't like you and don't want to waste mytime on people like you!
sorry no articles to cite to back up my dislike.... how bout you grow up
MLib -
Dunno'... but Trump the Twitter Twit supporters sure don't like my posts... Gee, wonder why?
Hard to believe those who voted for President elect Pu**sy graber voted for him b/c he was ANTI-establishment... Now they're finding out that couldn't be further from the truth...
Wanna' bet not ONE of the UN-fit, narcissist, supporters has the guts to take responsibility for selling out OUR govt. to the Koch bros and their Kongress...
Do Trump voters even KNOW what a pathological liar is?
Hmmmmm...pretty quiet thread here. Where are all of the Trumpeters??
". . .Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, the multimillionaire protege of the Koch brother's Plutocratic Kingdom and American Legislative Exchange Council darling, revealed to a startled nation that he has penned not one but NINE new amendments to the Constitution of the USA.
Forget the Bill of Rights, Abbott is proposing a Bill of Sale, effectively transferring the title of our national government from The People to The Plutocrats. . . "
Will Trump voters just Seig Heil to Trump or should they offer the same salute to the bros Koch?
Wondering minds want to know...Does anyone know the proper way to salute Plutocrats in a Fascist country?
Anyone who voted for Trump for anti-establishment reasons, feel free to post your opinion on his DEEP establishiment appointments.
---Especially Mnunchin Ross OR any of his choices... Just make sure you KNOW their backgrounds..
How do you feel about him handing this country over to the billionaires? Koch bros, et al.
We're all ears. . .
Hedge fund managers and Wall Street bakers are thrilled with Trump's election...
Trump has to give up ownership to the hotel in the Post Office according to the contract specifics, or be in violation of the contract and the law.
The NY Times has a great article on the multiple conflicts of interest he faces automatically the day he is sworn in dealing with appointments he makes, or having his children as advisors to those apponitments.
Having anybody tell him that they are staying at one of his hotels, or played his golf course, or mentioning any of his business interests presents ethical questions about possible quid pro quos.
Meanwhile, all the lawsuits started as civil actions against him will continue while he is president.
As far as Hillary being in the pocket of Goldman Sachs, notice all the appointments he is making with people from Goldman Sachs.
It's not a team of rivals, it's a billionaire boys club. The same people who got rich off of mortgage fraud want to privatize and own Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which they will own and make more money from.
Anything yet how creating those great jobs? Now that he has opened himself up to blackmail from other companies wanting tax breaks so they won't leave the country?
This is just ONE of Trump's conflicts of interests:
President-elect Donald Trump's company was reportedly given a tax subsidy worth $32 million for his D.C. hotel just six days after the election."This is a classic or textbook example of a conflict of interest," said Steven Schooner, a professor of government procurement law at George Washington University School of Law.
"The decision-maker here, the National Park Service, works for the party that stands to benefit from a favorable decision."
The hotel was built in a taxpayer-owned historic landmark called the Old Post Office Building, which Trump leases from the federal government.
In a sense, once he becomes president, Trump will be both landlord and tenant of the building—further underscoring concerns about potential conflicts-of-interest.
On November 14, a week after the election, the National Park Service approved an amendment to Trump's plans for the rehabilitation of the building, and BuzzFeed reports that Trump's company now has one more phase of work to do before it gets the tax credit worth 20 percent of the rehab project.
Roadie - I suspect Trump has already stacked up enough conflict of interest issues before inauguration that will keep the legal comunity super busy...
If Trump keeps his word and doesn't accept the presidential salary, and totally absolves himself of ALL his businesses; How will he support himself?

Coming off a tremendous season in which they won 12 games including a second round upset win over a very strong Whittier Tech club in the Division Three tournament, the Watertown High baseball team is hoping to build on a program that is on the rise.
Coming off a tremendous season in which they won 12 games including a second round upset win over a very strong Whittier Tech club in the Division Three tournament, the Watertown High baseball team is hoping to build on a program that is on the rise.
However, with seven starters gone from a year ago the task of winning double-digit games again won't be easy.
"Coming into last season we also lost seven starters and we had one of our best seasons ever," Watertown head coach Aram Manoukian reminded. "I'm not saying that means we are going to duplicate what we did last year but it also doesn't necessarily mean there is going to be a huge drop-off either."
Although this is only the second week of practice and the team hasn't been outdoors yet, Manoukian has a pretty good idea what his pitching rotation is going to look like. The Raiders have about a half dozen guys who have shown in the past that they can perform at a high level.
One of those boys is junior T.J. Hairston. The 6' 3" southpaw hurler is coming off a season where he had the third lowest E.R.A. in the Middlesex League with a 1.80, which included an outstanding performance against Reading in which he only gave up a single run.
Other pitchers expected to see action on the mound this season include senior co-captain Chris Stanizzi, his cousin and fellow senior right-hander Anthony Forman, junior righty Danny Austin-Manning, junior righty Kevin Dipietrantonio, and senior right-hander Gabe Rodriguez, who is back in Watertown after moving to Florida after his freshman season.
"We have a solid pitching staff," Manoukian said. "All these guys have had success in the past at some level and I am confident they are going to keep us in every game. We also have the luxury of more depth than we had a year ago so guys won't have to be out there longer than they need to be."
As far as positional players go the Raiders are fortunate to have senior infielder Logan Riley back for one more season. A year ago Riley batted mostly at the clean-up spot and did not disappoint. He led the team in homers and has proven to be an exceptional RBI man.
"He is a great hitter," Manoukian said of Logan. "He should be the guy to pace our offense."
Another returning player who proved he could hit is Erik Antonellis. The junior catcher batted .310 as a sophomore a season ago and if he continues on the same path this year he could cause a lot of problems for opponents.
Other Raiders who are expected to see a lot of game action include junior first baseman Kevin Arsenault, senior infielder Anthony Tresca, senior infielder Andrew Pepe, sophomore outfielder Austin Farry, junior outfielder Eric Tirrell, junior James Aguilar, and sophomore infielder Brendan Berkley.
"Losing the talent we had a year ago the boys know they have some big shoes to fill," Manoukian said. "But we all feel strongly we can get back to the tournament. In the first week of practice I can see the guys are serious about doing just that. They have come into this season full of energy and I was really happy to see that a lot of them are a lot of stronger because they worked out in the off-season. I can especially tell with the pitchers because I can see they are throwing harder. It's great to see this type of dedication."
Another pleasant surprise was the fact that 59 boys signed up for baseball, which is by far the highest amount of interest Manoukian has seen in both his coaching days and his playing days. The Raiders currently have 17 guys on the varsity roster and plenty of players available in case they need someone from the junior varsity and freshmen squads.
Perhaps some of the added interest in joining the Raider baseball team has something to do with last year's success.
"I don't think it is just the baseball team's success," Manoukian said of more athletes signing up for baseball. "The lacrosse numbers are up as well. I just think it is a tribute to Watertown athletics. With all the recent success of so many of our teams, Watertown sports is on a roll right now and I think a lot of kids want to be a part of it."
The Raiders hope to keep that train rolling this season, which will officially kick off on Monday April 1 (3:45 P.M. at Victory Field) when the locals host Advanced Science and Math Academy of Marlboro.
"Last year we won eight of ten games at home," Manoukian said also noting that one of their home losses was a one run game. "Hopefully we can get off to a good start at home this season as well."

You purchased your Pilot because its best-in-class value and driver satisfaction agreed with your nature; so why would you settle for second rate when it comes to the highest quality auto parts? It's not all the time that you realize that you have to buy a replacement Idle Air Control Valve to fix your automobile. Honda vehicle enthusiasts have come to expect a certain level of fuel efficiency when driving their Pilot around town. Car aficionados know that long-lasting service is built into each Honda, and understand that only top quality repair Pilot parts will suffice when maintenance needs to be done.
You can't get the best combination of fuel efficiency and engine output without high-quality engine components. Your Honda Pilot has a fuel-injected engine that requires a great deal of electronic calibration, and requires an idle air control valve to maintain the engine's idle. The Honda Pilot idle control valve is controlled by the ECU, and it lets a slight amount of air into the intake when you are not moving. This keeps your engine from stalling or shutting off when you come to a stop... all thanks to your idle air control valve.
When your Honda requires a top quality replacement Idle Air Control Valve, there's no need to go somewhere besides the authority, Car Parts Discount. Don't let a broken Idle Air Control Valve spell the end of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't risk lowering its resale value by using anything but the highest quality replacement parts. Given all the hassles associated with performing maintenance on your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the most authoritative website you go to make buying it easy. All the Honda Pilot Idle Air Control Valve parts on this page will fit vehicles made in 2004, 2003. Choose your year below to refine your search.

A pleasant and relatively inexpensive hotel close to the airport. The rooms are small, basic and clean; well insulated (we did not hear any planes) with comfortable beds and a warm duvet The only minor criticism is that the airport shuttle is apparently often overcrowded; it certainly was awkward to manage 2 large suitcases to the RoissyPole interchange. Also the two local restaurants are hopeless for non-meat eaters.

3 weeks ago i was driving and the
car stalled and would not restart. It
would not even turn over. Finally
found out the starter was bad but
that didn't explain it stalling. I
replaced the starter and now I can
start the car and drive it but now the
abs light, brake light and theft
system light will all come on. (Theft
system light doesn't come on each
time) the abs light and brake light will
come on and stay on until I kill the
car. The theft system light usually
goes out on its own. Also my fuel
gauge will read the proper amount of
fuel then suddenly drop to empty
and my temperature gauge will also
drop. They stay down a few seconds
and then return to normal. Yesterday
it did this 26 times in 14 minutes.
Any help on this would be greatly
The gas and temp gauge went out and the seatbelt, anti-theft, service engine, and airbag lights stay on also reading lamps in car arnt working, what could cause this, pcm? Diagnostic read no error codes.
Yesterday while driving my car my service vehicle soon light came on. Then shortly after my windows wouldn't roll up,my gas gauge stopped working and the light to tell me which gear my car is in stopped working.This didn't happen when I was driving. It was after I stopped at a store and started back up. My windows are still down and its raining and is supposed to rain all week. car still runs great but please help because I don't have money for a big fix
I have the following symptoms:
1) Check engine light on
2) After a few miles, temperature gauge maxes out and warning light comes on, but no matter what there are no signs of overheating
3) Vehicle acceleration drops dramatically. Once I stop it may take about 30 seconds to get back up to 40mph or so.
4) No hot air from heater
5) Sludge in coolant tank
I have very little money and can't afford an pricey diagnosis. I desperately need an idea of what's the problem may LIKELY be cause this has been going on too long and it's killing me.
