I've seen a CG of Takano wearing "an" uniform that may very well into the field of moe... The CG is from Higurashi's PS2 game of course -v-
Anyway the I found this episode's predestination thing got a bit over the top of sensible. Rika could completely predict the seating arrangement with 100% confidence. Nobody thinks this is a bit odd with the game they were going to play eventually, actually can vary? but not the seating? Drawing lots should be a much more random action than deciding on a game, imo.

I don't really get this attitude. Is the only reason so many people watch this series the violence? The characters are far deeper than most in anime and the plot is well thought out and contains tons of foreshadowing.
The violence brought on by the characters is the worst possible out come for any world. Is it then that surprising that as the closer we get to a happy ending the less and less violence we get?

What an amazing episode! Despite already knowing what's going to happen, it was awesome to watch it happen. KOOL Keiichi = awesome. And they finally mentioned about the Levels. I can't wait for the next episode.
Oh, is someone going to update which TIPS correspond with each episode? I guess I can figure it out myself.

Another great episode of course and this one i was looking forward to very much since we Hanyuu makes her appearance and the rules of spelled out for us. So what i gathered from this episode is that certain things will happen and have happen every time around although certain triggers will be different. One of the incidents that does not change is the fact that Tomitake and Takano will be murdered on the night of the Watanagashi festival and the second incident is that Rika her self will be killed shortly thereafter these 2 events will happen in every world.
I finally also got my answer as too how long Rika has been reincarnated. She has been at it for over 100 years and Hanyuu is even older since the beginning of the founding of the village and it seems each time they get less time to find a way to avoid all the tragedies. I didnt expect that Hanyuu and Rika senses were linked and i believe for the first time we see the real Rika for long periods and shes pretty mean Hanyuu LOL. I also enjoyed how this episode was directed right at the audience, as if Rika her self is talking to us since she knows we are watching that was a nice touch that kind of drew me in more.
Heres my theory for fight destiny. Rika obviously has grown tired after going through this over 100 times. She has always looked for an answer but has never directly tried to influence things thinking that you could not escape destiny and or fate, I think she is trigger and her friends are the bullets Rika was never meant to change events just to acquire the knowledge to her friends do it. The only incident where a change occurred was K1 remembering things from the past which gave her some hope that things could change but it never happened again so she and Hanyuu abandoned that path. Without even realizing it Rika directly influenced a change in the new world by telling K1 certain information which she has never done before at least not in so much detail. They didnt play cards that has never happened before and the direct result of that was K1 giving Mion the doll instead of Rena which avoided her starting the killing cycle. Obviously neither Rika or Hanyuu never thought of influencing events this way since it surprised both of them. The theory that you can fight fate if you try just might be valid given Rika knowledge and her friends personalties which K1 demonstrated. I think if she at certain key points in history interacts with each member of the group she might be able to guide them in a different direction than what history and destiny have dictated. In other words Rika was going about everything all wrong its not one person that will be responsible for finding what i call the happy path it will be each member of her group. The key is to act and give hints at the right time theres is an event for each version of the killings with Rena, K1, Mion, Shion, Satoko. if she can avoid these triggers happening it might create alternate ending that Rika and Hanyuu have desperately been searching for.
Well thats my theory im sure i might have somethings wrong but i wanted to share with everyone and get some feedback from the more experience Higurashi fans. please feel free to add things.

I like that theory Sinestra. But it doesn't really work with me. Although Keiichi giving Mion the doll really fit in with that. I think that Hinimizawa is like a lock and Rika, Hanyuu, Keiichi, Mion/Shion, Satoko and Rika are like the keys. but the combination will create a new place that the lock opens up. Like you said, something triggers them and that is when they key opens the lock (determines their fate). But I'm just guessing. That's like your theory too though so maybe I'm just wording it differently.
This episode was easily one of my favorites. I like when Rika is relfecting and well...duh! Au au au~

I started off watching the anime and I feel Minagoroshi-hen is going to be one of the better arcs. I feel an awesome amount of potential here and next week can't come soon enough. :|!!
Takano in uniform. FTW.
Mion receiving the doll. Sweet.

In the game, Rika cried out "HANYUU!" as she stabbed herself.

With a few simple words and a quick, seemingly-meaningless action, he avoided going down one of the "Bad end" paths.
But even if Rika manages to have her friends not go insane, she still has to deal with the Evil Janitors (and with what KJ posted in the Ep 5 thread, I think they might be the KGB) murdering her.
How can she and her friends go against people with guns?

Well,most of the events in Watanagashi are a chain of events with one causing another. Now that that Keichii broke one of those chain of events, we might see a totally new ending.
I was really surprised when Keichii gave the doll to Mion. Maybe Keichii's first instinct was to give it to Rena (as always) but then remembering Rika's talk about fate he thought "If fate wants me to give the doll to Rena,then I'll give it to Mion instead!".
I completely agree with Sinestra's theory as well. All of the gang going crazy comes by triggered events. Somehow Keichii is key in this, maybe because he hasn't been in Hinamizawa as long as the others so he's not as affected by it's powers as the others.

There must be a strong willpower behind whatever governs Rule Y, because it always occurs (unless Rule X got to Rika first). In other words, for Rika to be murdered in every single "reset" by the mystery crew, it must mean that somebody really wants Rika dead. And not just a regular death too - note that Rika is murdered the same way everytime.
Think back on the manner of Rika's death, the location where it occured, and the possible meanings that it might carry. Why would somebody want to kill Rika that way?
Don't worry, you'll be able to learn the answer in an exhilarating way when Matsuribayashi-hen comes around.

Two Minute Brew Day
Yesterday, I had the privilege of brewing beers for my sister's and future brother-in-law's wedding this upcoming June. They decided on a citrusy blonde ale and a hoppier American pale ale. Both will be great choices for a wedding crowd that will span from BMC drinkers to Colorado hopheads. I had never chronicled my brew day before, so I decided to film a time-lapse video of the brewery and condensed a 10 hour day into 2 minutes. As you can see, brew days also mean visiting with friends and neighbors! The time stamp starts at 6:00 am, but started before the camera was rolling at 5:00 am. Enjoy!

American Saison
...is looking and tasting wonderful. A great blend of fruitiness from the yeast and a tropical fruit and citrus from the Mosaic and Citra hops. It also drinks with a very light mouthfeel and is effervescent.
I named it Western Side of the Pond Saison.

Once AGAIN, this issue is up for debate in our legislature and it is a BAD idea. The only people that win in this scenario are the large out of state grocery chains. Privately-owned liquor stores and craft breweries will be hurt badly.

Ask a Law Question, Get an Answer ASAP!
Hi, welcome to Just Answer. I will help you with your question.
Hi ya. How long will the lease be for?
it will be at least 15 years
Okay. Then yes, it must be in writing and made by Deed. This is due to the requirement of s.52(1) Law of Property Act 1925.
what does made by Deed mean?
Different rules apply for less than 3 years, but clearly, you're well over that!
It means it has to say on the document itself that it is a Deed, and it must be signed and witnessed by third parties.
Let me see if I can find you a link for something to help ... hold on a second.
ok - but it doesnt need to be drawn up by a lawyer - it can have simple agreed terms?
Have a look at this: https://www.prolog.co.uk/prolog_common/LS2R.pdf?cat=Links&sys=ecom_lawsoc
This is the Law Society standard form of business lease, which you could use rather than use a lawyer.
HOWEVER, whilst you can do this without a lawyer, I would always recommend that people use lawyers as they will be able to negotiate the specific terms for you with the landlord/tenant and for 15 years, this is a long time, it's good to get it right and fully understand what you're entering into.
ok so we could just copy and paste the terms that we want to use?
You could do, yes.
if its a 15+ year lease, how much security do i have?
15 years worth.
what if the lessor wanted to end it early?
Hold on - are you in Scotland?
Ah - I've given you the answer under English law. I'm sorry, I should opt out and get a Scottish lawyer to answer you. Is that okay - bear with me?
Thanks. We will email you when a Scottish law looks at this.
Does it have to be drawn up by a solicitor?

JUNEAU Although Alaska is home to bigger, more dangerous and more glamorous big game, Sitka blacktail deer hold a special place in the hearts of some hunters.
Bowhunter Jack Frost has stalked trophy big game throughout North America, and has taken world-record brown bear as well as record-book deer in Alaska. His favorite Alaska hunt is Sitka blacktail on Kodiak Island.
Two islands 700 miles apart consistently produce Alaska's biggest deer Prince of Wales Island in Southeast Alaska and Kodiak Island in Southwest. Most Sitka blacktail average in the 90- to 120-pound range, but big deer on Prince of Wales and Kodiak are much larger.
''They can top 200 pounds,'' said Frost. ''They don't get as big as whitetails or mule deer, but they are not tiny.''
Blacktail are closely related to the mule deer of western North America, and the species even hybridize where their ranges overlap. Blacktail deer range up the Pacific coastline from Northern California to Yakutat, and have been introduced to Prince William Sound and Kodiak Island. An attempt to introduce deer to the Kenai Peninsula in 1923 was unsuccessful.
Sitka blacktail are the only deer in Alaska. There are two subspecies of blacktail deer: Columbia blacktail, found in the Pacific Northwest, and Sitka blacktail in British Columbia and Alaska. Columbia blacktail are significantly larger on average than Sitka blacktail.
Although blacktail are indigenous and abundant on the islands of Southeast Alaska, there's something special about Prince of Wales Island. Boyd Porter, the area biologist based in Ketchikan with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, said Admiralty, Baranof and Chichagof islands (known as the ABC Islands) have small deer and a lot of them. Prince of Wales has fewer deer, but they have larger bodies and bigger antlers.
''People brag about the fact these deer get up to 180 or 190 pounds,'' he said. ''A lot has to do with predators, but it's also genetics, weather and food, all those working in an intricate relationship. Prince of Wales has a lot of things that deer need, and in good supply. It's a very rich ecosystem.''
Porter said the old-growth forest on Prince of Wales is a fertile environment. The island is underlain by limestone, and limestone-influenced soils tend to produce nutritious vegetation.
Black bears and wolves prey on deer on Prince of Wales, but wolves aren't found on the ABC Islands. Bear are seasonal and opportunistic predators of deer, unlike wolves. Bears kill fawns in the spring, but when fawns are just a few weeks old they are better able to avoid bears. Wolves are effective predators on adults, and 90 percent of the wolves' diet on Prince of Wales Island is deer.
''The ABC Islands do have brown bears, but the birthing event swamps the predators,'' Porter said. ''For the most part, bears don't take many adult deer year round, it's a spring phenomena. On the other hand, wolves take them year-around, and a lot more of them.''
Predation is a dramatic influence, but Porter pointed out that it's an interaction of different factors. Vancouver Island, a few hundred miles south of Prince of Wales Island, has wolves, bears and mountain lions all preying on the island's population of Sitka blacktail deer. Deer persist there in high numbers, but the animals are small.
Winter weather is a major issue for deer. Deep snow, and especially snow that persists into the spring, can wreak havoc on a deer population. When snow gets brisket-deep on deer they expend a lot of energy getting around. It also makes finding nutritious food difficult, and predators are more likely to be successful.
''Deer can survive on fat reserves and a maintenance diet if snow doesn't persist,'' Porter said. ''Deep snow by itself is not a big issue, but harsh winter weather combined with persistent snow is very bad.''
When snow is deep, deer are restricted to the beach. If the snow persists to the spring deer can exhaust the available food supply, and their fat reserves. Consequently, deer populations fluctuate widely in some areas depending on the severity of winters.
''We see heavy mortality those severe winters, so it's a boom and bust situation,'' Porter said. ''If you have back-to-back hard winters you knock the population back and then hammer them again it can decimate deer populations. After the hard winters of '70 and '71 in Southeast Alaska there were piles of dead deer on the beach fringes, and the season was closed for over 10 years in some areas.''
In recent years, conditions have been favorable, and Porter said that bodes well for deer on Prince of Wales and surrounding islands. Hunters should find the coming seasons a good time to look for trophy-sized deer in southern Southeast Alaska.
Kodiak Island is very different from Prince of Wales, and is even more renowned for producing big deer. The majority of Alaska's trophy blacktail have come from Kodiak and adjacent islands and all those deer are from a source population of about two dozen animals.
Kodiak Area Biologist Larry Van Daele said there is some evidence that deer may have been introduced to Kodiak around the turn of the century, but numbers weren't high. Territorial records show in that 1924 14 deer from the Sitka area were released on Long Island, adjacent to Kodiak. In 1930, two deer from Prince of Wales were released. There was little indication of success, so in 1934, nine deer were captured near Petersburg and introduced to Kodiak Island. A population established and grew, and legal hunting began in 1953, when 38 bucks were taken. By the late 1960s deer had moved to adjacent Afognak Island as well. By that time, it was apparent that deer were thriving the harvest in 1967 was 1,500 deer.
Van Daele attributes the success of deer on Kodiak primarily to the habitat. The northern end of Kodiak Island, and Afognak Island, is dense Sitka spruce forest. The rest of the island is open alpine terrain of brush, grass and tundra. When winters are mild, deer are able to put on body mass, and with it, big antlers.
''You get the bad with the good, though,'' he said, ''When we have hard winters, there's not a lot of cover from deep snow, and we can have some pretty severe winter kill. The winters of 1998 and '99 hit Kodiak pretty hard.''
Predation is not a big factor on Kodiak, unlike Prince of Wales. Although Kodiak is famous for its big brown bears, they are not a significant predator of deer, Van Daele said.
Mike Flores of Alaska Deer Hunter, a hunter transport service, said deer on Afognak Island and the northern, more wooded end of Kodiak Island average 90 to 110 pounds, although larger animals are sometimes taken. The bigger deer come from the more remote south and west side.
''People kill the bigger bucks in the alpine areas where they are harder to get,'' he said. ''There are no roads for 60 miles.''
That's where Anchorage-based hunter Jack Frost has taken three Pope and Young record-book blacktails with his bow. He said most people like to hunt when the deer are in rut in the fall, but he prefers hunting in August and September, to take advantage of the longer daylight hours. A big part of the appeal of Kodiak is the visibility in that open country.
''The deer tend to be in bachelor groups in the high alpine,'' he said. ''I do a lot of glassing in the high alpine and I pass up a lot deer. I look for a trophy buck and then try and stalk it as best I can.''
He said it's a lot like sheep hunting. In the summer, the bucks are not running around chasing does and tend to stick to the same place, making them easier to stalk. The meat is far better quality in summer than fall, he said. The only disadvantage is that the cape is prettier in October, and makes a more attractive mount.
Frost has seen the population fluctuate in extremes, and concurred that the hard winters in the late 1990s killed deer in large numbers on Kodiak.
''The population is coming back now, and I've been seeing more big deer,'' he said. ''The best time is ahead. I expect good hunting in coming years.''

In an update to Google Maps, the ability to save your location to a pin on the map was removed (later Google released a stamdalne app for this feature). I needed this ability so I made my own Android application, My Saved Locations.
My Saved Locations is available for free on the Google Play Store.Download My Saved Locations
The rugby team at the University of Louisville was starting an academy for young rugby players and needed a website to handle events, news, and most importantly, process registration for the players. With this in mind, a custom Wordpress solution was implemented, complete with custom plugins such as a user export (to csv), a custom event plugin with Google Maps intergration and both calandar and list view, and a easy to user layout.
As a challange I redesigned a popular pizza restaurant located in Belleville, Il. The traditional green and red colors were used in a fun, mobile friendly design.

Mara House Hotel Luxor Reviews

Great value with tons of charm Dec 27, 2010
I loved Mara House! My dad and I stayed here in July 2010. I wanted to stay here after reading reviews online and thought it would offer a more realistic view of Luxor staying in a more residential area than along the Nile with all the other tourists.
We arrived at the airport and met Mara's driver. The van was roomy and air-conditioned. We arrived at Mara House and were greeted by Mara herself. We ended up sitting in the front room for over an hour talking with Mara and telling her about what we wanted to see. She listened and gave us some great advice and told us some amazing stories about ancient Egypt. Her advice to travel to Abydos and Dendra made our trip- they were by far some of the most amazing places we saw.
The suite we had was great. 2 bedrooms, bathroom, kitchenette area, dining area, living room and balcony. The suite was HOT, as it was July and temps were well over 100 degrees (52C) during the day and there was no air conditioners in the main living area, but there was one in each bedroom- so sleeping was perfect!
Breakfast each morning was great! Juice, coffee, fresh fruit, bread, cheese and HB eggs.
The suite was clean and well cared for.
The bathroom was a little different as the shower head was in the middle of the bathroom and there was no stall. But it wasn't bad and I thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated it at the end of the day. The laundry service was great-my clothes smelled amazing and the price couldn't be beat. It was about $5 equivalent to have a whole pile done.
Mara was a wonderful host with great connections in Luxor, Whatever we asked for she knew just the place and who would be the best guide for us. Her son also runs an apartment in Cairo. (We met some women who had been living there for 2 months and had a great experience in Cairo at his place.)
I would highly recommend this hotel if you are interested in staying in a less touristy area, don't want to break the bank and want some personal attention!!

Poor value Jan 21, 2010
Surprisingly highly recommended on Tripadvisor. It's walking distance to the train station and quiet, but lacking in amenities. We would have loved an extra mirror and towels. Breakfast is wonderful and plentiful.
Mara herself seems to need a vacation from Egypt. Rather negative and jaded, but very knowledgeable if you take her info with a grain of salt. For example, she told us the majority of tourists never leave their hotels in Luxor after their first time on the street because they're so uncomfortable with the touts. We couldn't wait to get out on the streets again!
If you've travelled in the developing world, Luxor is a breeze - nothing compared to Phuket or Cusco or other tourist cities. Venture out and enjoy!
$90 double room incl. breakfast. Laundry & mini bar items were very reasonably priced. One night had to be paid in advance - which was unusual for most of the hotels we reserved in Egypt.

Ski helmet use surging, but young adults resist
January 4, 2010
ASPEN, Colo. (AP) – More skiers are taking recommendations to wear helmets on the slopes. But helmet use is catching on more with the youngest and oldest.
A study out by the Colorado-based National Ski Areas Association shows that nearly half of all skiers wore helmets last season, 48 percent. That's up from a 43 percent helmet rate during the 2007-2008 ski season.
But the study suggests that not everyone is taking to the helmets in equal measure.
Two-thirds of skiers and snowboarders between the ages of 10 and 14 said they wore helmets. But only about one in three skiers and boarders between ages 18 and 24 wore helmets last season.
Older skiers like helmets, too. The usage rate was 63 percent for adults ages 65 and older.

|« Long belated blog
|Body Image »
Blue blog
On my "to do" list today – write a blog!
I finished my last exam of my summer classes on Friday. I have been longing for this short time off before full-time school starts in September. I looked forward to being able to sleep in, read, lie on the couch and watch garbage on TV, and generally just have time to myself (something I have been lacking for months now). It is so silly that when I am busy, I dream about how nice it would be NOT to be busy. And then when I have nearly nothing that HAS to be done, I am anxious to start being busy again.
I am just generally feeling "off" since Friday. There are lots of reasons why – I'm catching up on lost sleep and getting back to better eating habits, my exercise routine has been less routine and more all or nothing than I like, I'm feeling the weight of obligation as a bridesmaid in a wedding this Saturday and some sadness over the state of that friendship, I'm feeling lonely because all my friends either left town or have a normal day job to go to while I have 2 weeks off… Saturn is square my moon (August 15-23) too, which heralds a "period of insecurity and self-doubt". Astrologically, I am also looking at some tough angles starting mid-October: Saturn square Sun, Mercury, and Uranus. That's what I get for having all my "eggs" (planets) in only a few "baskets" (signs/positions).
Having down time also means I have too much time to dwell on myself and my life (this is the curse of our prosperous society, really). A lot of changes have occurred in my life this year. I welcomed most of the changes, but I don't adjust quickly. Some changes were quite hurtful to me, but ultimately for the best, I know. However, I also don't get over hurt easily or quickly and I've been thinking a lot about that lately.
In the 6 months since I quit my job and started school, I can honestly say I haven't once regretted that decision. In fact, I was somewhat unsure (before the moment I actually quit, which was phenomenally enjoyable) if I was really making the right decision. Now I am sure.

Visualising the relationship between food, water and energy
Water, food, and energy are all connected. But the nuances of those connections are not obvious. A short animation from the Guardian (commissioned by SAB Miller) breaks it down in honour of World Water Week:
70% of global freshwater is used for agricultural uses. In the US 50% of all freshwater goes towards creating electricity. In countries that rely heavily on hydropower, drought can lead to blackouts. And then there are biofuels. It takes 1,300 litres of water to make just 2.2 pounds of wheat, according to the video. By 2030, a staggering 10% of the world's cropland may be used to produce biofuels.
There are no easy solutions - the world must curb consumption, even in the face of a rapidly growing population. For more information on the water, energy, and food nexus, visit Co.Exist.

Fearless Faith by Jonathan Stephen was published by 10 Publishing in July 2015 and is our 58007th best seller. The ISBN for Fearless Faith is 9781910587317.

For over ten years, the team at Sport Chrome has been offering our award winning chrome plating service to Motor Sports businesses and enthusiasts from all around the world. During our tenure, we have discovered that all of our clients share a common trait … namely, a true passion for excellence. That being said, these clients also expect their chrome plating supplier to share this same passion, and that is why the top shops, custom builders and collectors from around the world choose Sport Chrome for their chrome plating needs.
We are often asked by our clients why California, and in particular Southern California, is known for producing some of the highest quality chrome plating compared to other states here in the U.S.A. For many years, California had a rich, long-standing history of being the center of manufacturing for aluminum wheels and steel rims for the automotive and motorcycle industries, and at one point, there were countless foundries in the Southern California region that produced aluminum aftermarket wheels. As you can imagine, because of the popular demand in the hot rod and upgraded late model motorsports sectors, chrome plating was a required finish, so these manufacturers sought and demanded many local chrome plating companies to emerge.
Chrome plating has always been an art form, and it is truly a craft, not an exact science. While chrome plating one style of wheel may prove to be rather simple, chrome plating another wheel could prove to be very challenging. As a result, there were many skilled plating technicians that not only became very knowledgeable in the chrome plating process, but they also invented different tricks and techniques required in order to produce a consistent type of chrome plating that was universal to every style of wheel being made. Sadly, most all of the wheel manufacturers in Southern California have now closed down due in part by the gluttonous supply from China combined with the ever increasing demand for lower prices and the constant increase in costs of operation. Consequently, when these wheel manufacturers closed down, so did many of their production oriented chrome platers.
Happily, Sport Chrome has always been a custom chrome plating shop rather than a large scale chrome plating production entity, therefore we were not as directly affected by the growing number of imports from China as other chrome plating companies in California.
In fact, it could actually be argued that the decline of wheel manufacturers and the subsequent closing of the many chrome plating companies was a benefit to Sport Chrome because it has helped us bring and retain the best talented metal finishers within our network of experienced, impassioned staff, and that helps us consistently produce the finest chrome plating available anywhere in the world. Let Sport Chrome share with you our passion for the finest chrome plating available from anywhere in the world!

Demetra has long been a wino intrigued with body art, and took the leap towards a tattoo backpiece in June of 2006, at the age of thirty one.
New York City based artist and veteran tattoo magician Eddie Molina put in over thirty hours of tattooing in six months to complete her Japanese Phoenix. They eventually fell in love, moved to Upstate New York, married, and opened The Hand of Fate Tattoo Parlor in Ithaca, New York. Once settled in, Demetra took a part-time side job at a local winery just for fun…and became obsessed with the hard work of being a cellar rat, a field hand, a wine maker! Eventually that love started dragging locals and visitors to tasting bars, and the rest is in the books.
She is now a social media (local) wine aficionado that travels far and wide with her husband, often to conventions and shops around the world. Boozylife.com is her attempt to imbibe locally sourced beverages and spread the word to other like-minded individuals. Wineries, Vineyards, Distilleries…none will be safe. DRINK LOCAL, no matter WHERE you are! The happy couple is based out of Ithaca, in the Finger Lakes region of Upstate New York. They have four dogs, a messy house, and an awesome existence.

Sony Xperia X Premium planned with HDR display
Sony's smartphone division has been been experimenting with display technology in recent times. After the Xperia Z5 Premium, the first smartphone with a 4K display, the Japanese company is working on its next smartphone display experiment. So will the Xperia X Premium come with native HDR support? Here's what we know so far about the Sony Xperia X Premium price, release date, specs and features.
When it comes to smartphone displays there are various panels, gadgets and technologies on the market. Sometimes these are useful, but a lot of times their usefulness is questionable, such as with the 4K display of the Sony Xperia Z5 Premium. Its resolution is a huge 3,840 x 2,160 pixels, but in daily use it isn't activated often enough to reduce energy demand.
But now a report has surfaced on the tech site PhoneRadar and purports that Sony is working on an Xperia X Premium with Full-HD resolution. The report suggests that Sony wants to set a new record for display brightness. The 'White Magic LCD' would allow maximum brightness of 1,300 cd/m². By comparison, the display of Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge can reach a maximum value of 855 cd/m², according DisplayMate.
The bright display from Sony Xperia X Premium would therefore natively fit within High Dynamic Range (HDR). For photos and videos, this would provide better image reproduction thanks to an HDR display's high contrast and vibrant colors.
As nice as that sounds, once again, this could very well be useless display technology by our estimates. Just as the 4K display of the Sony Xperia Z5 Premium was, so too could the HDR display of the Xperia X Premium be effective only with certain applications, such as the photo gallery or video player. It's unlikely that this will provide great everyday usage at this stage.
If you disagree, write to us in the comments and share your opinion about the possible Sony Xperia X Premium with an HDR display.

Sony everybody is right better screen is good but please create something different like Samsung introduce retinal scanner that every body will love like DSD high quality music player and converter. With high res-audio speaker. And one more thing your after sales support in the Philippines is one of the worse. Many Filipino like Sony but after they disappointed with your after sales support they will switching to Samsung. Samsung have very good Customer servers and after sales support. For example, your authorized store did not follow the Philippine law about 7 days replacement, they will fool people by saying with 7 days replacement but if you encounter a problem with your unit after a day your unit will be sent to service center instead of replace a new one from the store. Another one is the accessibility of your service center you need to go in the place farther than mall and hassle to every client. I hope you will improve your service center to attract more customers.
I would really want to try this out. I don't like the saturation on Amoled as colors don't look natural and are too eye popping!
sony 's display lags behind samsung and many others due to that awesome high saturation amoled screen which lcd can never get if this native hdr solves the problem then sony is good to go or sony should switch to amoled
Completely wrong. This is a Quantum Dot phosphor based LCD screen (first in a smartphone) with a QD backlight and WRGB subpixel structure. It has local dimming so this backlight is split into a million pieces so every single pixel can be turned on or off to get pure blacks and peak whites which leads to infinite contrast. This QD LCD has a saturation that far supersedes AMOLED since it can match the BTU.2020 colorspace which is 2x purer color saturation than AMOLED. AMOLED is superior to all LCDs except this one. AMOLED in every way is inferior to this WRGB QD LCD display. Sony and JDI did an excellent job here this time.
I think its a great news ,But the sad part of full HD and 4k phones are that they are the battery killers ,the screen consumes more battery than anyother Phones due to their vivid colors and brightness they offer and not many Phones have amoled screens and Its more or less the same with QHD phones.
In phones full HD and 4k are nearly about the same.I can't find any quality issues in my full HD screen.So I think QHD is more than enough.

For what it's worth, I've encountered very similar attitudes over the years in other environments. A good example is the digital library world; both regarding access to digital collections and online access to OPAC data, it was quite common to see Z39.50 search protocol access to the full collection, but accompanied by a rather cautious reluctance to also offer a simple data dump of the entire thing. Pointing out that you could do this via repeated Z39.50 searches was rarely helpful, and seemed more likely to encourage the search interface to be restricted than for data dumps to be made available. But hey, times are changing! I think it's just a matter of time... cheers, DanReceived on Sunday, 25 April 2010 19:20:20 UTC

To take a pause from the grinding in Hyrule Warriors: Legends, I decided to do another run through the Nintendo 3DS remakes / remasters of the Nintendo 64 Zelda classics, Ocarina of Time 3D and Majora's Mask 3D. I started with Ocarina of Time 3D, will continue with Majora's Mask 3D and then finish it off with Master Quest 3D. That way I will be able to really compare both remakes back to back, while also judging the replay value of both games.
And as much as I love the Nintendo 64 Zelda games, which always have been part of my favorite Zelda games, I don't feel the immediate replay value anymore. I mainly wanted to replay Ocarina of Time 3D, because I haven't touched it since I first completed it in 2011 and because it looks really pretty - it's still one of the best looking Nintendo 3DS games with amazing 3D visuals. The 3D goes quite deep, I love the popout effects, when you get important items (it's like those Spiritual Stones are coming out of your 3DS screen) and it all looks very sharp. Especially the new models of all the characters look great (except maybe Saria, who looks somewhat derpy), it's all very well done for the most part (save for some texture fences and texture staircases here and there) and a satisfying new version of the N64 classic, which now really has a timeless feel to it.
Of all the 3D remakes and remasters that the Zelda series has seen in the last five years, this is still my favorite one. It really looks like an upgrade, it adds some interesting new features, but it also doesn't change much to the worse, like Majora's Mask 3D did, only some minor things. So, it overall feels like the superior version of the game.
Anyway, while I marveled at the visuals, I also feared that replaying the game itself will feel like a chore, because I've replayed Ocarina of Time so many times already that I don't know the exact number. And for some reason, when I replay a game, I always think about the parts first, which I despise. In this case it would be the random Heart Piece from the trolling Dampé on the graveyard, the Bombchu Bowling, the fishing, the horse races - it's usually the minigame stuff that ticks me off in Zelda, but these kind of activities are certainly much worse in the sequel.
Early on the game also feels super slow. I love the scene, where you first leave the forest and entire Hyrule Field unfolds before you. It gives this vibe of freedom that I want from a Zelda game. But it also takes forever to walk from A to B. Walking around Hyrule Field is slow and quite boring save for the Peahats, but you tend to walk around them anyway. And that's one of the challenges that they are facing with Breath of the Wild, where you do get a large world to explore, but you never want it to be boring. But I suppose the Guardians will be the super aggressive Peahats of the new game.
Now, after these initial hurdles, the game gets to be the classic, charming fun. I enjoy replaying the dungeons of this game, where the Forest Temple will probably be my eternal favorite, and it's also fun to collect everything again. There's potentially something to find in every corner and you can go at it, how you see fit. My playthrough wasn't extraordinary this time, but I still mixed things up a little bit, after getting the Master Sword:
- Lon Lon Ranch
- Ice Cavern
- Fire Temple
- Forest Temple
- Gerudo Fortress
- Bottom of the Well
- Water Temple
- Shadow Temple
- Spirit Temple
One thing that they really should have changed with the 3DS version is replacing the eye switches in the Water Temple, especially the one at the end of the vortex tunnel. It's quite the long way to get there and you almost have finished the entire dungeon, but right at this point the game is telling you to stop and go back to get the Bow from the Forest Temple first. That's easily one of the biggest troll moments in the Zelda series and they just should have replaced it with a crystal switch, so you can beat the entire dungeon without the Fairy Bow, which would allow to complete this dungeon first in order. There's also an eye switch in the Fire Temple, but you can go around it and still complete the dungeon. It's just an optional shortcut.
It's also interesting, how the game world opens up to you in terms of fast traveling methods. In most of the later Zelda games you usually have the one warp song / item / ability that lets you teleport to a number of bird statues or similar warp points all over the world. It appears to be the same in Breath of the Wild and it certainly gets the job done best. But in Ocarina of Time it's really a combination of several things, like the six individual warp songs or the different portal gateways. As Child Link you can't use Epona, but there's the Owl in two places for shortcuts, like the one from Lake Hylia back to Hyrule Castle Town. You also get to use one more gateway.
The gateway system is also quite interesting, how it connects Death Mountain and Zora's Realm via the Lost Woods, as well as Zora's Realm and Lake Hylia as a child. The quickest way to get from A to B in Ocarina of Time can be a little maze puzzle in itself. For example, when you have to deliver the Eye Drops to Biggoron and can't simply use warp songs, most people probably ride towards Kakariko to climb Death Mountain from there. But I ride towards the forest, use the Gateway to Goron City and then take a shortcut through the Death Mount Crater. This route only takes half of the given time.
Now, while replaying the game, I also thought that there should have been one more gateway in the world: leading from the Desert Colossus into the Gerudo Fortress. It would have to be blocked with the big grey boulders, which require the Silver Gauntlets, so you can't use it as a child and you can't take it to bypass the Haunted Wasteland at first. It would be like the gateway from the Lost Woods to Goron City, where you have to get to Goron City the normal way first to open it up. But the Gerudo Fortress seems to be the only place that is not connected by means of fast travel. The fastest way to get there seems to warp to Lake Hylia, take Epona and ride to the fortress. And that takes a little patience, where it would be much nicer, if you just could warp to the Desert Colossus and then take a gateway into the fortress. They could even place it somewhere funny, like in the one empty prison cell.
Also, after playing Hyrule Warriors: Legends for the past months, it was inevitable that I tried to do combos at some place. It only happened once and curiously enough, it was inside the pot storage room in Hyrule Castle Town. That's somewhat ironic, because you can't actually break pots with combos in Hyrule Warriors, only with regular attacks, but I suppose it's one of the few places in Ocarina of Time, where you attack multiple things at once, which gave me the urge to press Y. And seeing Nabooru in this version of the game, makes me really want to have her as a playable character in the next Hyrule Warriors game, she looks lovely.
I also had to adjust to not using the Start or Select button to open the inventory. Actually, I wasn't able to adjust to this at all, I still kept pressing these buttons at the end of the game, only to be annoyed by the save game dialogue. At least this time I was playing with larger screens and a screen protector installed on the touchscreen, so navigating the inventory was a lot more convenient. When I played Ocarina of Time 3D first on my original Nintendo 3DS, I didn't have a screen protector installed and I was really careful with the touchscreen, which also was quite small, so I kept using the Stylus every time I wanted to change an item. And that was a real hassle.
Of course this was a 100% run and with Ocarina of Time 3D you at least want to beat the Boss Challenge once. Replaying the individual bosses for better time scores is overall a fun addition to the game. The Boss Gauntlet, however, is not, at least at first, when you just want to beat it once and be done with it. There's some luck involved due to the treasure chests and while the majority of boss fights are really enjoyable, the bane of my existence right now seems to be Bongo Bongo. I never remembered this boss fight as particularly difficult on the Nintendo 64, but whenever I attempt the Boss Challenge mode, I'm having issues with these awful hands. The targeting systems seems to fail me here often, where I can target one hand and stun it, but the other evades my crosshairs. And since the hands are super fast, you can't target them manually. What makes things worse is that Bongo Bongo is the second to last boss in the Gauntlet. I can just get to this point without a single scratch, but he might potentially kill me off. He didn't, though, but it was a close call (half a heart left) and luckily I got a Heart Container after the fight, so I could stay relaxed in the Twinrova battle.
In Master Quest this will be worse, because one mistake there really will kill you. Not looking forward to that one. But I suppose, I'll just have to practice Bongo Bongo a little more, because that's what the individual challenges are there for...

Liverpool's Doni reveals heart attack
Former Liverpool goalkeeper Alexander Doni has revealed that his long absence from football was caused by a heart attack suffered last summer.
Doni joined Botafogo in his native Brazil on Thursday after his contract at Anfield was cancelled by mutual consent. The 33-year-old had been back home in South America since the summer, with Liverpool only stating that he was on leave for personal reasons.
But Doni, who joined Liverpool from Roma in July 2011, told the Brazilian website globoesporte.com that he nearly died after having a cardiac arrest during a medical test.
He said: "I almost ended up on the other side. I had a heart attack for about 25 seconds.
"I've been to one of the best doctors in Europe who looked at me carefully. He's asked me to stop for a few months. "Now I have to wait until April, then I can return to the field."
Doni, who established himself as second choice to Pepe Reina at Anfield last season, played four times for Liverpool, making his debut in a 1-1 Premier League draw against Aston Villa in April 2012.
The keeper has won 10 caps for Brazil and was in their squad for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, but did not play.
Liverpool have declined to comment on Doni's revelation.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

- Surgical Reconstruction of the ACL
- Surgical Choices for ACL Reconstruction: Autograft vs. Allograft
- Surgery
- After Surgery
- Postoperative Risks
- Recovery Period

The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of four ligaments in the knee. These ligaments work together to stabilize the knee during activities. Unfortunately, tears of the ACL are common and occur with twisting activities (such as playing basketball, tennis and soccer, or skiing) and direct blow injuries (such as those that occur in football).
An ACL tear usually occurs from a sudden event often accompanied by a "pop" sound. The knee will swell for a few hours and it may be uncomfortable to walk. The knee can also feel unstable. A physician can confirm the tear with a physical examination and a magnetic resonance image (MRI) scan. When the ACL is completely torn, it cannot repair itself and thus the ligament function is lost. After a few months, the ligament tissue will break down and be absorbed by the body.
Back to top
Nonsurgical Treatment of ACL Tears
A small percentage of people will do well after an isolated ACL tear without surgical reconstruction. These individuals tend to be older and less active. They are not involved with activities or sports that involve pivoting or "cutting." Knee braces can help prevent instability episodes by "hobbling" the knee and assisting with sensory feedback. However, most active people will continue to have instability even with the most expensive custom knee brace.
Before deciding to pursue nonsurgical treatment in a knee that is ACL deficient, it is important to make sure that there is no other damage to the meniscal cartilage pads or other ligaments. An MRI scan can determine with excellent accuracy whether additional damage is present. If there is significant damage to the menisci, surgery is usually recommended. If knee surgery is scheduled for other problems, then most people decide to reconstruct the ACL at the same time.
Back to top
Surgical Reconstruction of the ACL
Most people with a torn ACL will experience instability, a feeling that the knee gives way or feels loose. This instability commonly results in a reduction in activities, especially sports. More importantly, the instability will usually lead to additional damage to the knee.
Meniscal cartilage pad tears, articular surface cartilage injuries and additional ligament damage are common following untreated ACL tears. Some studies have shown that during the five years following an untreated ACL tear that 80 percent of individuals will have suffered additional damage because of instability. This damage often results in arthritis, a wearing out of the articular cartilage surfaces, which results in pain, stiffness and deformity. Most people with a torn ACL are unwilling to give up their activities and have a strong desire to prevent further damage to the knee. Therefore, most people elect to reconstruct the ACL.
The surgery to reconstruct the ACL involves taking a piece of tendonous tissue to replace the ACL. Tendons and ligaments share similar tissue composed primarily of collagen protein. The underlying concept behind the reconstructive surgery is that a tendon is surgically placed into the knee exactly into the position where the torn ACL was located. The tendon is fixed to the bone with biodegradable screws.
Approximately 95 percent of the time, the body will then reestablish the blood supply to the tendon and over the weeks following the surgery this blood supply will bring new fibroblast cells that will repopulate the tendon bringing it back to life. As a result, the "new living ACL" is seemingly just as good as the original and should last a lifetime. Follow-up studies, which show maintenance of stability and active lifestyles for many years after ACL reconstruction, support this theory.

Surgical Choices for ACL Reconstruction: Autograft vs. Allograft
After deciding to undergo surgical reconstruction of the ACL, you must decide from where the reconstruction tissue will come. When the tissue comes from the same patient, it is called an autograft. When the tissue is taken from a different human donor, it is called an allograft. Tendons, such as the patellar tendon and hamstring tendon, can be used for autografts. The Achilles tendon, patellar tendon and hamstring tendon can be taken and used for allografts.
Autograft Reconstruction of the ACL
The first autograft reconstruction of the ACL was performed around 1918. The more common procedures, which are now performed with the use of arthroscope, became popular in the early 1970s. The most common autograft used is the central-third-patellar-tendon graft. This graft is actually comprised of a piece of the patella bone (kneecap), the central third of the patellar tendon and a piece of tibia bone (shinbone). The graft is usually 10 millimeters wide (3/8 inch) and 8 centimeters (4 inches) long. The patellar tendon defect created from taking this graft is usually closed with sutures and the donor site will heal during the months following surgery. The healing of the patellar tendon defect can lead to excessive scarring and sometimes pain.
Hamstring tendons from the back of the thigh can also be used to reconstruct the ACL. The most common hamstring tendon used is the semitendinosus. Often a second hamstring tendon, the gracilis, is also taken if the semitendinosus is not large enough. The donor hamstring muscles seem to tolerate the removal of their tendonous attachment but permanent hamstring weakness is expected following surgery.
The major disadvantage of autograft tendons is the additional damage to the knee from harvesting the tendon at the donor site. The donor site can become a source of pain, scarring and weakness. Excessive scarring can permanently reduce motion. The donor site can take longer to heal than the reconstructed ligament. Longer surgical times are needed with larger incisions. Early return to activities, while often safe for the reconstructed ACL, can cause injuries to the donor site.
The major advantage of using autograft tendons are that they have been used for the longest period of time and because they come from the injured person they do not have any chance of carrying organisms, which may cause infectious diseases.
Allograft Reconstruction of the ACL
The primary advantage of allograft tissue is that there is no additional damage to the knee and stronger grafts can be used.
The most common allografts use the patellar tendon and Achilles tendon. The Achilles tendon is the strongest and largest tendon in the body. Allograft tissues are taken from tissue donors through tissue banks. The donors are people usually under 40 years of age, often who have died from an accident. The donors are screened by tissue banks and are tested for infectious diseases. Screening histories, blood tests and cultures are obtained during tissue processing. These screening procedures must be clear of infectious disease or the tissues are rejected by the tissue bank.
The risk of disease transmission through allografts while never non-existent is extremely small. Allografts are poor vectors for disease transmission. The graft tissue has no living cells. It is frozen and kept in a deep freezer until used. The fact that the tissue has only a few cells and no living cells makes the donor graft tissue a poor transmitter of living bacteria or viruses that are responsible for transmitting most diseases. Because this tissue has no living cells, it is not necessary to match the donor and recipient, nor is it necessary to give anti-rejection drugs.
Back to top
You will be in the outpatient surgical facility approximately 90 minutes, but your surgery often only takes about 20 to 60 minutes. It is performed as an arthroscopically assisted procedure. Two to four skin incisions, or "portals," are placed in different areas in the front of the knee, dependent on tissue used. Through one of these portals the arthroscope - a small video camera the size of a pencil - is placed into the knee. With the magnification of the arthroscope, the physician can visualize any damage that has occurred. Through the other portals instruments are placed into the joint to remove, smooth or repair the tissues. All additional damage is corrected.
Water is infused through the arthroscope throughout the procedure and the tissues around the knee will absorb some of this water. The physician does not use a tourniquet device as here is no significant risk of bleeding. The ACL graft is placed into the knee through the small portals and placed into bone tunnels. The ACL graft will then be fixed with the latest biodegradable screws. These screws are MRI compatible and do not show up on X-rays. The small incisions are closed with absorbable sutures and skin tape so that there are no stitches to remove. An ice machine is often recommended after surgery. Most people go home a few hours after surgery. You will need to use crutches and a brace. At home a CPM (continuous passive motion) machine is used four to six hours a day to assist with motion.
After surgery, water mixed with small amounts of blood will often leak out of the portals and look like blood on the bandages. The drainage on the bandages is mostly water, which is normal.
Surgery is not without risks. Common risks include, but are not limited to, possible nerve injury, infection, bleeding, allergic reaction, and very rarely, death.
Back to top
After Surgery
After surgery you will be asked to stay in the outpatient surgical facility for a period of one to two hours to recover from any drugs you may have been given. You will also be allowed to sip some water and eat crackers. You will have a large bandage on your knee and a brace. You will need someone else to drive you home, as well as to be with you during the first 12 to 24 hours after the procedure.
It is important to do only what is necessary once you are home. You can use the restroom, get something to eat or answer the phone, but otherwise you should try to lie down with the leg elevated above the heart as much as possible. Take pain pills and anti-inflammatory medications immediately and regularly to help control pain. It is usually better to start taking the pain pills before the pain comes, so as not get "behind" the pain. Resume taking all medications, which you normally take.
Start the CPM machine once you get settled at home. The range of motion is preset at zero to 40 degrees. Please stay within this range. If you increase the motion too fast you may experience more pain the next day when the local anesthetic wears off. Also, if you chose to use the ice machine, continue for 24 to 48 hours.
First Postoperative Day
The day following surgery may be a lot tougher than the day of surgery. The numbing medicines used during surgery will wear off and there may be more pain. Try and use the CPM machine as much as possible while increasing the CPM range of motion as pain dictates. Ice bags or the ice machine should be used continuously. The leg should be elevated as much as possible above the heart. Try to do as little activity as possible and take your pain medication regularly. Do not get behind your pain, or it may get quite severe.
Remember, it is normal for bloody drainage to appear on the outer bandages. The drainage is mostly absorbed water mixed with small amounts of blood. The bandage should be shifted slightly so that dry bandage covers the draining portal. You can also place new bandages around the knee.
Follow-Up Appointment
Please make sure you have a postoperative appointment scheduled prior to your surgery, if not call the Sunnyvale office at (408) 732-0600 to make your follow-up appointment for one to four days after surgery. We will discuss your surgery and check your wounds at this appointment. You will start physical therapy after this first appointment. Please bring your operative pictures and diagrams that were given to you in the hospital so that we may discuss them.
Nausea and Pain Medication
Remember that surgery is not painless. Try to take your pain pills as directed even before you experience pain. Nausea and vomiting are very common postoperative problems. If you start to get nauseated, try and minimize the use of the codeine pain medication (hydrocodone or vicodin) and use Tylenol and Motrin for pain control. (Codeine products can make you nauseated.) Start eating more slowly beginning with soup and crackers. If you're prone to nausea, ask for anti-nausea medication prior to surgery.

Postoperative Risks
Potential Risks with ACL Reconstruction
- Wound Infection
Signs of infection include redness around the incision area, discharge of pus from the wound, increased pain and a fever of more than 101 degrees with chills and/or sweating. If you are concerned, call the office at (408) 732-0600.
- Blood Clots
Blood clots (thrombophlibitis) can occur after arthroscopic knee surgery. Usually, but not always, they occur in individuals with risks such as people who are more than 50 years of age, smoke or are overweight. Signs of blood clots include increased calf pain and the inability to put weight on the leg due to pain, as well redness and swelling of the calf.
- Urgent Signs
If you experience pain in your back or shortness of breathe, call 911 immediately. If you are concerned but do not feel it is an emergency, please call the office at (408) 732-0600.
- Risk of Graft Failure
The signs of a graft not forming a blood supply and weakening are not obvious. However, they are usually discovered during the postoperative evaluations.
- Loss of Motion
After surgery, it is very important to obtain and maintain full extension (getting the leg as straight as the nonsurgical leg).
Back to top
Recovery Period
The weeks following ACL reconstruction surgery will be somewhat difficult but also rewarding. It is important to follow these instructions. In general, listen to your body. Your first goal is to regain full extension (straightening the knee) and prevent postoperative complications such as infection, blood clots and stiffness.
You can begin putting weight on the leg while it is in the brace and using crutches until you are stable walking without them. Generally, it is best to stop using the crutches first and walk with your leg in the brace. The brace can be removed when you know you will not slip or fall. Usually, the only way to hurt an ACL graft is to slip suddenly or fall.
Most patients go to physical therapy three times per week, but exercises should be performed daily. The more you work without increasing your pain or swelling, the faster you will recover. Some patients are off their crutches in a few days and out of the brace within a week, biking in 10 days and able to jog in six weeks. In most cases, you will be able to return to all sports without a brace.

Fork should duplicate that mapping so your child has exactly the same vmspace. You should allocate (or map) additional stack only if you need memory beyond those limits. In other words if your system provides you with 8Mb of stack, you've used 1M and need 2M more for child you should be in those limits. Having said that, I'd first try fork1 with exact parent's stack.

D'signy History, Family Crest & Coats of Arms
England following the Norman Conquest of 1066. The D'signy family lived in Lincolnshire. This family was originally from Isigny, in Calvados, Normandy, and it is from the local form of this place-name, D'Isigny, literally translating as from Isigny, that their surname derives. [1]CITATION[CLOSE]

D'signy Spelling Variations
spelling variations. When the Normans became the ruling people of England in the 11th century, they introduced a new language into a society where the main languages of Old and later Middle English had no definite spelling rules. These languages were more often spoken than written, so they blended freely with one another. Contributing to this mixing of tongues was the fact that medieval scribes spelled words according to sound, ensuring that a person's name would appear differently in nearly every document in which it was recorded. The name has been spelled Disney, Deisney, D'Isney and others.

Migration of the D'signy family to the New World and Oceana
For many English families, the political and religious disarray that plagued their homeland made the frontiers of the New World an attractive prospect. Thousands migrated, aboard cramped disease-ridden ships. They arrived sick, poor, and hungry, but were welcomed in many cases with far greater opportunity than at home in England. Many of these hardy settlers went on to make important contributions to the emerging nations in which they landed. Among early immigrants bearing the name D'signy or a variant listed above were: William Disney who settled in Maryland in 1740.
The D'signy Motto
The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto.
Motto: Vincit qui patitur
Motto Translation: He conquers who endures.

On 26 March 2015 the ATO released a short statement in response to the House of Representatives Standing Committee on Tax and Revenue report into Tax Disputes, released on the same day. That report made 20 recommendations.
The ATO notes that many of the recommendations of the report reinforce the strategies the ATO already has in place or is putting in place to improve dispute resolution.
Over the past eighteen months, the ATO has focused on dispute prevention, early resolution, and alternative methods for resolving matters, including mediation, direct conferencing, use of independent parties, facilitation and sensible settlement.
The ATO says that, historically, a very small number of disputes have been dealt with poorly. The positive feedback and reports of change that were presented to the Committee are evidence the ATO's improvement strategies for effective and fair dispute resolution are working.
The ATO will be examining the report in detail and making a formal response.
