Canada's Christine Sinclair breaks record for most international goals
Christine Sinclair has scored more goals than anyone in the history of international soccer.
For a famously soft-spoken player who prefers to let her play make all the noise, that says it all.
Sinclair's second goal in Canada's 11-0 win over Saint Kitts and Nevis on Wednesday was the 185th of her career, surpassing previous record holder Abby Wambach of the United States. The game was each team's opener in the CONCACAF Women's Olympic Qualifying Championship.
"Just unbelievable," Sinclair said on...
Sweden beat Canada, get QF match with Germany
Sweden's Stina Blackstenius struck in the second half as they won 1-0 against Canada, who missed a late penalty, at the women's World Cup to set up a quarterfinal against Germany.
In sweltering conditions at the Parc des Princes, the two teams struggled to register any shots on target in a first half despite Canada dominating possession.

That all changed after the break when the Swedes stepped up a level and they were finally rewarded in...
Sweden advance to quarterfinals, emerge as World Cup dark horse
PARIS, France -- Sweden booked their place in the World Cup quarterfinals on Monday thanks to a 1-0 win against Canada. The Olympic runners-up are emerging like real dark horses in the competition and will be full of confidence when they face Germany in the next round on Saturday. Here are five takeaways from their victory at the Parc des Princes on Monday.
More drama
In terms of football, the last 16 of this 2019 Women's World Cup has not always been spectacular. But it has packed drama, from...
Netherlands top Canada but still looking to fulfill potential in Women's World Cup
REIMS, France -- The Netherlands secured the top spot in Group E on Thursday, beating a valiant Canada team 2-1. The European champions will face Japan in the last 16 on June 25 in Rennes. Canada will face either the United States or Sweden.
The game could have been totally different, but VAR overturned a penalty given by French referee Stephanie Frappart after just 90 seconds in favour of the Canadians.
Anouk Dekker and Lineth Beerensteyn scored on either side of Christine Sinclair's goal...

House price inflat ion accelerates
- House price growth indicator hits new record
- Demand continues to outstrip supply
- Sales expectations improve
Ricardo Guimarães
Director at Ci
"House prices are now growing in almost all municipalities. This is the major difference compared with before, when, at the same time, there were some markets seeing rising prices and others either stable or even with marginally negative trends. At the present, secondary markets are also positive. These locations are specially benefiting from stability in the economy and the banking system, supporting an increase on new lending activity."
Simon Rubinsohn
Senior Economist at RICS
"The unemployment rate in Portugal has fallen 2% over the past year, representing one of the most significant declines amongst euro member states. Solid job creation continues to drive confidence higher, reflected in upbeat sales growth projections across the housing market."

A Nimrolite Blade is one of the greatest weapons a warrior can wield. But sadly; it is impossible to retrieve unless you are a warrior of Promethea.
Obtaining Edit
A Nimrolite Blade is unobtainable, unless you are a valiant half-elf of Promethea, or have been gifted one. There are only a few of these treasures left in the world, and they are only wielded by the greatest warriors. All of them were forged by the great Elven smiths in ages long before the founding of Promethea. Sadly, the methods of forging these blades have been forgotten.
Battle Uses Edit
A Nimrolite Blade can cut through mithril armor like it's butter. But the Nimrolite blade was made for a special purpose; slaying all that is evil in the world, be it a Dwarf, Orc, or Hobbit, if it senses evil nearby, it glows. It doesn't just glow; the blade part of the sword glows gold-yellow and when it touches anything unworthy, it annihilates them. Lets just say if you slice an orc with a non-glowing Nimrolite blade, the blade is like a hot knife and the orc is butter. But with a golden, glowing Nimrolite Blade, the blade is a burning broadsword and the orc is melting butter. That's how powerful it is when glowing.
Wielders Edit
Kaldaron (The First King of Promethea)
- Aldacar (The Second King of Promethea)
- Haldaron (The Third King of Promethea)
- Baranor (The First Steward of Promethea)
- Arivour (The Fourth King of Promethea)
- Aranuir (The Fifth King of Promethea)
- Pyrder (High-king of all elves)
- Brac the Lucky (Slayer of Arivour)
- Aymon (Reclaimer of Agrangel)

3 things to recover a cracked website.
- Since files in the cracked website are changed, put those files back. Reinstall related software (phpBB).
- Fix the hole, prevent other crackers to crack it again.
- Find out what the cracker did, and prevent her from entering again.
Actually we can reinstall the php and phpBB, to do the 1st and 2nd task. Now I'm focusing on 3rd task. I don't know what the cracker did, what if she created a super-user account for herself, and she can come over anytime?

Lives in
Owner of the shop Bobo Couture, herewith she brings African mode to Amsterdam
Making people happy
Would love to
Write her own short stories
'Cosiness and warmth of my family and friends. In Amsterdam everybody is always bussy, so you feel a lot of loneliness.'
Mali in Amsterdam
'Amsterdam Zuidoost, because a lot of African people live in this part of Amsterdam.'
"I was born in Mali. When I was eight my mother married a Dutchman and we moved to Wageningen. I lived there for six years. We then emigrated to Togo as my stepfather worked there, and I went to middle school there. When we lived in Wageningen we often came to Amsterdam because my aunt lived there. The first time I was very impressed, especially with The Red Light District. I'd never seen anything like that.


text: Hi, I am playing with Project Euler nowdays, and in the last few problems I solved I had problems generating primes fast enough. Currently I am using the following implementation of the Sieve of Eratosthenes: sieve([]) -> []; sieve([H|T]) -> [H|sieve([X||X<-T,X rem H =/= 0])]. I tried to change it to use addition instead of doing the remainder: sieve_filter(_, _, []) -> []; sieve_filter(F, I, [F|T]) -> sieve_filter(F + I, I, T); sieve_filter(F, I, [H|T]) when H > F-> [H|sieve_filter(F + I, I, T)]; sieve_filter(F, I, [H|T]) -> [H|sieve_filter(F, I, T)]. sieve2([]) -> []; sieve2([H|T]) -> [H|sieve2(sieve_filter(3 * H, 2 * H, T))]. But this one runs slower than the original. Could anybody explain why? Are there any optimisations I can do here, or do I have to find a better algorithm (any pointers?)? Thanks Imre

Title : SUBSTITUTION OF JP-5 FOR DIESEL FUELS ASHORE.
Descriptive Note : Interim rept. 17 Jan-1 Oct 64,
Corporate Author : NAVAL CIVIL ENGINEERING LAB PORT HUENEME CA
Personal Author(s) : Watson, William W. ; Wise, Judith J.
Report Date : 15 FEB 1965
Pagination or Media Count : 35
Abstract : Severe logistic problems outside CONUS have made it necessary to reduce the number of fuels carried in Navy stock. The Naval Civil Engineering Laboratory conducted a series of tests to determine the suitability of JP-5 aviation turbine fuel as a replacement for DF-2 diesel fuel in construction type equipment. Preliminary findings disclosed that the JP-5 fuels currently available on the West Coast can be successfully used in the diesel engines assigned to the Naval Construction Forces without the use of additives or precautions, other than increased attention to the cleanliness of the fuel and the fuel system.

Polyglot Persistence: The 'boring' relational option
I was chatting with Brian Blignaut last week after the Equal Experts NoSQL event and he made an interesting observation that in this age of Polyglot Persistence we often rule out the relational database.
I think it's definitely better that we now have many different options for where we store our data - be it as key/value pairs, documents or as a network/graph.
Having these options forces us to think more about how we're going to read/write data in our application whereas previously our effort was focused around which tables we were going to pull out.
Having said that, I realised I'd fallen into the trap that Brian was referring to when thinking through how we could model the energy plans that users were selecting from a results table.
We wanted to run aggregate queries over the data to work out the most popular plans and suppliers on different days and then across different customer segments.
We represented each user selection as an event, stored as a document in MongoDB which worked fine to start with but queries started to become much slower as the number of documents approached 500,000 or so.
I started thinking about whether we'd be better off storing the data in a different store which was better optimised for the types of queries that we wanted to run.
My initial thought was to use one of the flashier 'NoSQL' databases but Ashok pointed out that the use case - slicing/dicing data at a scale (< 1 m rows) where everything would fit on disc - was perfect for something like PostgreSQL.
I realised that he was absolutely right and I think it's important to remember that in future - when we talk about choosing the appropriate data store for our problem that doesn't mean we have to rule out the relational database even though it's probably more fun to use another store.

Gen. 4 Glock 18C GBB
The Glock is an iconic family of pistols, synonymous with law enforcement due to its exceptional reliability.
This particular model is the Glock 18C – full automatic as well as semi-auto. One of the most famous examples of this pistol is in the James Bond film Sky fall, seen with extended magazines (as well as a double C-mag). The gun shares the same dimensions as its semi-auto only brother, the G17, which makes it very comfortable to use.
The Glock gained widespread acclaim due to scaremongering from the press upon its initial release, falsely claiming that it could pass through airport security because it is a polymer-made pistol. This led to it being referred to as the 'terrorist' pistol, which is ironic considering it is now most commonly used by military and police forces around the world!
WE-Tech's replica of the Glock G18C is sublime – from the compensator cuts on the slide to the texture of polymer, this gun is truly fantastic! Colouring is superb; it is not quite jet black nor an off-black – it makes the gun look like a gun.
The grip sits comfortably in the hand, and the controls are extremely ergonomic. Magazine release is placed exactly where you would expect it, and slide release is in easy reach of your thumb (provided you're not shooting southpaw). The fire selector is found on the slide, making switching between semi and full auto as easy as flicking it with your thumb!
The WE G18C is arguably the best fully automatic Glock on the market. It doesn't have any of the issues of the KSC/KWA G18 (such as the fire selector working itself loose), and doesn't require the slide to be racked when switching between semi & full auto!
The gun features a 20mm accessory rail to allow the mounting of lasers, torches etc., giving it a more tactical look.
WE have based their design off of the TM-spec Glock as opposed to the KSC gas version, so you can expect a higher degree of accuracy and reliability over the KSC/KWA. It is powered by green gas, and performs excellently all year round – it is nowhere near as susceptible to cool down as older designs, though we would still recommend warming the magazine before shooting!
This pistol requires a Green Gas for it to operate (NOT INCLUDED)
Technical Specification:
- Construction: Full metal
- Type: Gas Blow Back Recoil
- Energy: Up to 1 J
- Mag Capacity: 24bbs
- Firing Mode: Semi-Automatic & Full Automatic
- Hop – Up: Adjustable
- Powered by: Green Gas

In a geopark, the particular geology of a region is integrated into a sustainable regional development concept. The geopark can thus help to strengthen the regional identity and regional economy, for example in the tourism sector.
A geopark is an area in which geology is used as a basis to show how landscapes are formed, which rocks and raw materials occur in the subsoil, and how geology and soils influence land use. Didactic measures such as information boards, guided walking tours or flyers help to convey these topics. At the same time, the protection and use of special geological sites known as geotopes are encouraged.

Get to Know Assistive Listening Devices
Your everyday life just got a lot easier – when you're hearing impaired or hard of hearing there are a variety of options available to you to make listening easier. Assistive listening devices (ALDs) are made to help aid you in hearing and comprehension of conversation.
As a general rule, an ALD will have three basic components:
- Microphone
- Transmitter
- Receiver
As it turns out, most ALDs also fall into three general categories, outlined below.
Infrared devices make use of visual, light-based technology and are commonly utilized on occasions when privacy and confidentiality are prized, which include court proceedings or business meetings. Due to the fact that light can't pass through walls, infrared devices ensure privacy. They're also seen frequently in entertainment venues and in the use of TVs and video players.
Inductive loop
Inductive-loop devices make use of electromagnetic technology and are commonly utilized in multi-person settings in which more than one person with hearing loss is involved. Inductive-loop devices ensure that reception elements do not need to be worn on the body. They also do not require use of hearing aids – inductive-loop devices can be used with simply headphones and a receiver.
FM devices make use of radio broadcast technology and are commonly utilized in classrooms. Varying degrees of mobility are offered with these types of devices, namely when the transmitter is being worn on the user's person. Additionally, newer ALDs can have a hearing aid attached.

ShareAlike compatibility
What is ShareAlike compatibility and why is it important?
The ShareAlike licenses are designed to ensure that the freedoms associated with a licensed work survive as the work is adapted by others and that those freedoms attach to adaptations of the work as well. There are other copyleft licenses designed for this same purpose, but unfortunately, the works licensed under these other licenses are not compatible with works licensed under BY-SA. Creative Commons created the ShareAlike compatibility process as a means to solving this problem. The process allows CC to evaluate other similar copyleft licenses to determine if they are similar enough to BY-SA to meet licensor expectations and hence be deemed compatible. BY-SA Compatible Licenses are listed here.
How does ShareAlike compatibility work?
Once a license is deemed compatible with BY-SA, anyone adapting BY-SA works can apply that license to their own contributions to the adaptation. With version 4.0, future versions of BY-SA are automatically compatible. Non-CC licenses have to undergo the ShareAlike compatibility process to be officially designated as a BY-SA Compatible License by CC. In either case, if someone applies a compatible license to an adaptation, both the original BY-SA license and the compatible license apply to the adaptation. However, downstream users of the adaptation may choose to look 'only at the compatible license (that is, the last license applied) to determine what their attribution and ShareAlike obligations are under both licenses if they reuse the work.
What does one-way or two-way compatibility mean?
One-way compatibility means that you may adapt work under one license (X) and apply a second license (Y), but you may not adapt work under the Y license and apply the X license. For example, CC BY is one-way compatible with BY-SA. You may adapt a BY work and apply BY-SA, but you may not adapt a BY-SA work and apply BY.
Two-way compatibility means that you may adapt work under one license (X) and apply a second license (Y), or vice versa.
For ShareAlike compatibility, a license listed as a ShareAlike Compatible License on the compatible licenses page is two-way compatible unless otherwise noted.
What licenses are compatible with BY-SA?
Different versions of BY-SA have different compatibility mechanisms. Each version is addressed below.
- For BY-SA 4.0, all future versions of BY-SA and all ports of BY-SA 4.0 or later are automatically compatible, as well as licenses explicitly deemed compatible pursuant to the ShareAlike compatibility process
- For BY-SA 3.0, all future versions of BY-SA and all ports of BY-SA 3.0 or later are automatically compatible, as well as licenses explicitly deemed compatible pursuant to the ShareAlike compatibility process
- For BY-SA 2.0, all future versions of BY-SA and all ports of BY-SA 2.0 or later are automatically compatible
- For BY-SA 1.0, only BY-SA 1.0 is compatible.
Why did CC choose the Free Art License to be the first BY-SA Compatible License?
Drafted in 2000, the Free Art License was one of the original copyleft licenses designed for content, not code. The latest version (1.3) was published in 2007 with an eye toward compatibility with CC licenses. The FAL 1.3 is very similar to BY-SA in spirit and substance, and raises no significant obstacles to compatibility. For a detailed explanation of the policy decisions involved in the compatibility determination, see here.
Why did CC decide to pursue compatibility with a software license (GPLv3)?
In some niche areas such as gaming, content is increasingly blended with code in ways that make it impossible for downstream users to differentiate the two. Developers in these fields were sometimes abstaining from integrating BY-SA content into GPL-licensed software projects because of potential conflict between the two copyleft licenses. This obstacle to reuse and remix of BY-SA content into projects published under a license so similar in spirit and substance was at the heart of the problem the compatibility mechanism in BY-SA was designed to solve.
Together with the Free Software Foundation, CC decided to pursue a limited form of compatibility to address the problem. Because the GPLv3 is designed for software and CC discourages use of its licenses for software, there are special considerations for those seeking to take advantage of this compatibility mechanism.
Example compatibility scenarios
- BY-SA 4.0 story is adapted into a screenplay and FAL 1.3 is applied
- both licenses apply, but reusers of the screenplay can attribute both authors and ShareAlike according to FAL terms
- FAL 1.3 image is adapted and BY-SA 4.0 is applied
- only BY-SA 4.0 applies to the adaptation; reusers of the BY-SA adaptation may look only at the terms of BY-SA 4.0 to determine their obligations
- BY-SA 3.0 song is synched with your original video and BY-SA 4.0 is applied
- both licenses apply, and reusers of the video must comply with the terms of both versions to the extent they differ [note: this is unlikely to have much practical significance; see here for details on how the license versions differ]
- BY-SA 4.0 assets are adapted into GPL game and GPLv3 is applied
- both licenses apply, but reusers of the GPL game can attribute and ShareAlike according to the GPL terms

Kitty and the Dead Man's Hand by Carrie Vaughn
Kitty and Ben now engaged. Like all things in Kitty's life… nothing goes as planned. They decide to elope and have a Las Vegas wedding. Ozzie, her boss, approaches Kitty about doing a live studio show while she's there. It's her chance to do a tv show on her terms this time. The trip turns into a working vacation. Her mother insists on being there for the ceremony. And guess what? The hotel just so happens to host a gun enthusiast convention at the same time which might not be so bad if some of those enthusiasts didn't make their living as werewolf hunters.
The lights, crowds and sounds set the wolf sides of Kitty and Ben on edge because it dulls their senses. Vaughn gets the setting on the Las Vegas strip completely right. I was in Las Vegas two years ago for a friend's wedding and this book brought back some good memories. Even the details about the weather at various times of day are spot on.
While Ben plays poker, Kitty meets the Las Vegas Master vampire and becomes intrigued by two acts she'd like to feature on her show. The first is magician Odysseus Grant who seems to use real magic in his act. The second is the trained animal act (lions, and tigers but no wolves, oh my!) of Balthasar, King of Beasts. Kitty wants to know if the were-felines are there against their wishes or not. Odysseus and Balthasar don't get along either which makes Kitty curious about their history.
This book felt like a long setup for Kitty Raises Hell so I'm glad these two books were published a month apart. There is a lot of action in this one and it's possibly the sexually raciest of the series. Kitty and the Dead Man's Hand continues the theme of The Long Game which was introduced in Kitty and the Silver Bullet when Kitty learned more about vampire politics than she cared.

This last weekend I did a lot of training on the dirt bike I am taking to the Loretta race. I was having a lot of trouble riding the bike and the suspension was not the way I liked it. Matt and the guys from BOSS Cycle Sports worked on it several times and finally this weekend the bike was exactly how I like it. I was able to get through the rough parts of the track and the bike sat down just the way I like it in the corners. Thanks guys!
After testing on Saturday we headed out to the Turlock Faire to support my 51 FIFTY team that was racing. I really wanted to race with them, but the team was supportive of me getting my bike ready for Loretta's first. It was so much fun to watch the guys race and to hang out with the team. During a few races I sat in the announcers booth with Gary and I was able to plug my 51 FIFTY – Moto Efx team…. talk about the races and the energy drink, and I had a front row seat for the action.
All the guys did really well and I was so excited to watch them ride. Tilford, Plouffe, and Fields put on a great show!
It was nice to be able to talk to the riders and they team about racing tips during the day and we also had so much fun being silly.
I got my new TLD helmet from Larry at Moto Efx and it looks so sick wrapped like the team with 51 FIFTY.
I will be getting my new Loretta graphics soon…….I can't wait to show them to you!

What needs to be improved[edit]
What needs to be improved upon:
- better readability (article structure, phrasing)
- more useful combat tips
What needs to be expanded upon:
- position-based attacking
- dodging
- hard tells of attacking enemies
- mechanics bar LeonardMcCoy 16:51, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
- (cross-profession) combos
- Agreed, there's a lot of information to provide to wiki readers about combat and one article may not be enough. Along these thoughts, there is a dedicated wiki project you may want to participate to. -- Leonim [talk·contribs] 20:39, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
Left-Over Text[edit]
Learning new skills and combat[edit]
The five skillsets on the left hand side of the hotbar (and mentioned above) can be learned incrementally by using any number of weapons your class can weild. Use a dagger and you will have set of skills or spells, that advance via a percentage until they're fully learned. Use a wand and you get a completely different set of skills. Using each weapon gradually unlocks the spell next to it until all are learned. As per the image at right, you start with one basic spell for each type of weapon, located at slot 1 and the others beside will be grayed out until you max out your skills with that particular weapon.
- As I see it, how (weapon) skills are unlocked (by killing enemies using weapon sets) is already part of the skills page article and not central to a general article on the combat mechanics of Guild Wars 2. However, this aspect may be more interesting in a beginner's guide to GW2 or as a (very) short aside somewhere in this article here, which we are sure to implement as soon as the general outline and contents stand. LeonardMcCoy 23:21, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
- So you don't want something in simpler language that someone coming to the site to find information can consume under the general heading? If I was lost and confused in game, I would come to the wiki and look under the general heading. However, if a clearly labelled beginner's guide was on the front page, perhaps that would be good, too.Jayne 13:50, 5 May 2012 (UTC)
Ok I just read through what you wrote and it's apparent you know the game well, but the language is confusing for those who don't and rather than go in and edit what you've done, I'll leave a note here for you to figure out how to adjust. If I was completely new to the game, I'd find a few things, like the following example, hard to figure out:
- You can only activate the non-recharging skills (WHAT IS THIS IN SIMPLER LANGUAGE? What is a non-recharging skill -- it implies that it is either something that's active continually or something that can be used once and not again. Use of the words activate and non-recharging seem at odds with each other) currently on your skill bar. It can leisurely be adjusted while out of combat (HOW? LEISURELY? PERHAPS USING A CONCRETE EXAMPLE HERE, ON AN ELEMENTALIST, FOR EXAMPLE, YOU CAN ETC...) , but when a skill is activated and until it is fully recharged, it can't be changed nor used in any way. During combat, already readied weapon sets can be swapped (not changed) (THIS IS CONFUSING AND SEEMS TO CONTRADICT -- SWAP TYPICALLY MEANS CHANGE, CAN YOU CLARIFY? MAYBE GET RID OF (NOT CHANGED)?) and some skills replace themselves by a follower skill (USE CHAIN SKILL INSTEAD OF THE WORD FOLLOWER, IT'S CONFUSING) on use (as part of a chain, a trigger mechanism, etc).
- Seemingly, the skill bar allows only a bit more than ten skill slots, most of which are initially locked and the other half come as profession-specific sets: your weapon skills in the first five slots (1 to 5, from the left) and the up to four profession mechanics immediately above (F1 to F4). But as the character levels up, more options are unlocked, step by step, such as utility slots and weapon swapping possibilities to further endorse one's playstyle in complement to the distribution of traits and attributes.
Is there any way to clean up this paragraph in particular? the use of the words "seemingly" and "a bit more" are non-definitive and could create confusion -- are there 10 skillsets, or are there more? If the answer is more, then perhaps we can elaborate on that, and provide specific details, so that it's clear. I believe the hotbar has a finite 10 slots, but that some of those slots on the right can be changed out with other options gained through skill points. Maybe explain it that way?
I understand writing is intrinsically personal, I edit for a living professionally, so I'm trying to broach this carefully ... please understand my suggestions are to make things better so that the end-product is easily digestible for all who read it, not just hardcore gamers who know how the game works. What I feel when I read your copy is that you're so entrenched in the game and how it works -- and you write with authority which is wonderful -- but I think you forget that not everyone knows how to play, particularly with some stellar new game mechanics. I would just suggest simplifying some of the language .. imagine you're explaining it to a very young child, then your content is completely digestible by everyone who comes to read it. I understand this is your part of the wiki that you're passionate about, ergo me not making any of the above changes directly. I will keep out of it, but I do hope you take these suggestions for what they are and not be offended -- they're merely a means to make things better.Jayne 13:50, 5 May 2012 (UTC)
- I did the first batch of edits to the text. The page overhaul by Leonim was beneficial under the bottom line; now we only need to polish and rearrange the information. LeonardMcCoy 15:21, 5 May 2012 (UTC)
I think the article is still all over the place, not structured/outlined clearly enough. I'll try to write something together first (in my user page's sandbox) before I'll make any further edits. LeonardMcCoy 16:10, 6 May 2012 (UTC)
Movement speed[edit]
I know its not just me going loopy, your character runs slower when engaged by enemies, but I don't know by how much. Does anyone know? Also, should we add this info to the main page? I think its relevant. Puk 20:59, 27 October 2012 (PDT)
- I took a stab at it (under Combat Basics). See anything I'm missing? --Felbryn 23:16, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
- No, I think that reads really well. Nice job! Puk 01:31, 30 October 2012 (UTC)
Why did they slow players down? It's ruining the feel of the game.
The reduction of player movement speed is like (auto-crippling) players without the ability to remove the condition. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by 220.127.116.11 (talk).
- It's the other way around, they increase the movement speed outside of combat, giving you a boost when you're not fighting. --zeeZ (talk) 02:24, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
- I disagree, if your using sprint and you're attacked your movement speed is drastically reduced if any creature attacks you. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by 126.96.36.199 (talk).
- You're both saying the same thing in different ways, which is that movement speed is higher outside of combat than in it—though if I had to guess, I'd say they probably picked the combat speed first, and then decided to give a bonus while out-of-combat to decrease travel times and/or make it harder to run away once you're in combat. If for some reason you hate this one particular game mechanic and feel the need to vent about it, I recommend you take it to the forums. --Felbryn 05:54, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
- I disagree, if your using sprint and you're attacked your movement speed is drastically reduced if any creature attacks you. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by 220.127.116.11 (talk).
In game window color[edit]
Added a note about the level color of the mobs' level changing according to difference of level, and an addition to the solo-able area to comment on the dungeouns and champ level bosses. 126.96.36.199 02:21, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

REPOST FROM: Harte Hanks
WRITER: Korey Thurber
Marketing activities create a deluge of data. Today's marketers face, at times, an almost overwhelming number of challenges when it comes to deploying truly personalized, choreographed and impactful communication streams across the customer journey. For every $1,000 spent, marketing activity can generate literally millions of data points in the form of impressions, clicks, responses, conversions, revenue, and sentiment data points. So how does one make sense of this plethora of data? This is where Artificial Intelligence and "machine learning" swoop in to save the day.
In this post I'll be explaining what machine learning is and what it does. My subsequent posts in the series will cover:
Companies that are using machine learning well and how they're using it
Applying machine learning to marketing through personalization and sentiment analysis
How to get started with machine learning
What Is Machine Learning?
Very simply, Machine Learning is a form of Artificial Intelligence (AI) that is used to solve problems by finding patterns, deriving insights, and making predictions from tremendous amounts of data. It enables computers to churn through this data and to learn and improve without explicitly being told to do so.
Let's say an analyst wishes to build a predictive model to score and rank individuals on their likelihood to buy product x. Roughly speaking, the analyst will follow these steps:
Collect and compile the data
Perform an initial exploratory data analysis to identify potential predictors
Build the model
Implement the model in a centralized customer database
Structure a test to validate the model in the "real world" via a marketing campaign
Collect the results and evaluate the performance of the model
Utilize the results and corresponding new data points to rebuild the model to hopefully improve upon the results generated by the initial model
Repeat steps 4) through 7)
As you can see, it is a manually intensive process that mainly consists of data manipulation and manpower from analysts and data scientists to find the insights and improve the predictions going forward. Machine learning, on the other hand, leverages the massive processing power of computers. Their objectivity allows them to see patterns in tremendous amounts of data that the biased human mind cannot, and then apply those insights to determine how new data can be used to accurately predict results.

"No, I didn't get any of that."
Fair enough, both of us have been drinking all day, but in my mind, it was a simple notion to understand. My friend didn't agree.
"I invest in this software so people can get content that's better suited for them. So when they sign up, they choose what they're interested in and then receive content based on what they chose, and then they will be more invested in the content."
He still looked at me with that dead-eyed look, unable to comprehend what I was talking about. Not because he was stupid or because I was super-smart, but simply because… he wasn't in it.
It is the same look I give to him when he starts talking to me about professional photography.
He talks about equipment and exposure and lenses as if it's common knowledge. Even though I'm pretty tech-savvy, the world of photography is still a kind of a blur to me. I like it but I was never willing to put in the same amount of effort as he did to develop the same skills.
We have different interests and different abilities. But there is one similar trait we share that allows us to be admired in our respected fields:
We can do what other people can't.
So… what can you do?
If you're like me, you were probably told something like this:
- Get good education
- Learn skills employers want
- Find a good job based on those skills
Even though I often talk bout about how I "hate being normal" and dislike common plasn society lays out for me, this actually makes sense. Be smart and skillful, then put those things to good use.
At any point in history, there are certain jobs or skills that are more desirable than others. That doesn't mean that only these jobs are important but they are certainly more in-demand, paid better, and provide better opportunities.
Without providing you with a condescending history lesson, let's just focus on the current era of our lives (that's 2010s for those reading this in a distant future *friendly wave*).
Today, it's all about the tech.
Technology is growing at a faster rate than any time in human history. If you're a skilled software developer, your work is naturally going to be in demand.
This doesn't mean that professions like doctors, lawyers, translators, or store clerks are unimportant. They will likely always be important.
However, as times change, the required skills change with them. It is not necessary for most men to be hunters and gatherers. That process is done for you and you just buy your food at the supermarket so you can focus on other things.
New professions emerge and old ones die out or become very rare. Those who thrive are those who are relevant.
With this perspective, the plan society lays out for most of us in the modern world makes sense. It points us towards the future, making sure we stay relevant.
This also creates a problem — if everybody is relevant, then nobody is.
Oversaturation of Skilled Individuals
So far, it's obvious that you need a relevant skill to survive.
You work hard, get good grades, and try to get into a good school that will teach you the desirable skill. As it turns out, all of the other geniuses around you had the same idea.
So in-demand places get oversaturated and can only accept a limited number of applicants. The rest may be almost as smart or almost as skillful but they are left to either:
- Fend for themselves and make their own way.
- Give up and find another profession.
This applies only to those who want to work hard and develop these skills. Most people want a mediocre job with a mediocre pay, aim for mediocre institutions that allow them a semi-comfy existence.
What happens?
These places also get oversaturated and can only accept a limited number of applicants. The rest have same options once again:
- Fend for themselves and make their own way.
- Give up and find another profession.
In the end, looks like the plan I outlined in the beginning isn't actually such a great plan after all. Most people end up getting screwed anyway and end up doing what they do not want, even if they have the necessary education.
So this brings us full-circle to the original statement: you need to be relevant.
There's always competition and there's always someone better than you. The times are always changing and you can very easily be made redundant. It's not a pretty thought but it is a fundamental fact of life.
So what can you do to prevent this?
Do What Other People Can't
In 1943, American psychologist Abraham Maslow proposed "The hierarchy of needs".* He put forward the idea that human needs are like a pyramid, with the essential needs at the bottom and more profound needs at the top.
Something like this:
You won't care much about your long-term business plans if you cannot breathe at this moment. The same way, you won't care about the respect of others if you are starving and haven't eaten in a week. Once the bottom-level needs are met, you start caring about the next level up.
It's similar to the saying "more money, more problems".
The days of primal tribes and working hard just to survive are long gone. Most of the world lives in relative safety and comfort, shifting our focus to other things. We're not struggling to find food or shelter so we're plagued by different kinds of problems.
What should I have for breakfast? Why doesn't that boy/girl like me? What is my life purpose?
Many of these issues are jokingly referred to as "first-world problems" because, to people in third-world countries who are actually starving and struggling to survive, these things are unimportant.
Why am I mentioning this?
Because in order to stay relevant, you need to keep moving up the hierarchy.
If everybody around you is well-fed, the strongest person takes the advantage. If the best jobs require intelligence rather than brute strength, then the smartest person has the edge.
If everybody is well-fed, well-educated, and about as skillful, then the advantage goes to the person who has the upper hand in other things: more experience, higher confidence, or better problem-solving skills.
This is exactly what professor Carol Dweck found when she researched the influence of a person's mindset. Those who have "fixed mindset" are afraid of challenges and competition, making them less likely to improve and, therefore, less likely to do well in the long-run.
On the other hand, those who adopt a "growth mindset" are the opposite.
Those who can endure pain and hardships more easily will thrive better. Those who are more confident in themselves are less likely to give up. Those who are more creative will think of better solutions to their problems.
Let's go back to our current in-demand profession: software development.
Even within this set of skills, having the edge is important. Just 10-20 years ago, as the Internet was emerging, it was more about building websites and desktop apps.
Nowadays, many tools exist that allow non-techies to quickly create complete websites without touching a line of code. With the emergence of mobile platforms, the focus has shifted toward mobile apps and dynamic experiences. And this is also likely to change soon enough.
Web developers and web designers are not redundant — but they are becoming less and less relevant as a whole.
Those who thrive throughout modern times are those who adapt; those who take the extra step, who constantly expand their skills, and embrace the future.
As expected, those who are willing to do so have mental strength.
They are able to observe the world more objectively instead of getting emotional ("it is not fair", "back in my day it was better", etc). They accept pain and failure as part of the process, instead of trying to avoid them. They believe in themselves even when they haven't yet achieved what they are trying to do.
They do what other people aren't willing to. And for this reason, they end up doing what other people can't.
What lengths are you willing to go to?

Asian Monetary Integration
Coping with a New Monetary Order after the Global Crisis
Woosik Moon and Yeongseop Rhee
Chapter 3: Destined to fail? The history of the yen bloc before the Second World War
Woosik Moon and Yeongseop Rhee
For closer monetary and fi nancial cooperation to occur, leading countries need to assume corresponding responsibilities because the viability of a monetary union depends on their responsible actions to boost regional solidarity and cohesion. The past experience of the yen bloc shows that Imperial Japan's absence of such responsibilities was the main cause for the failure of the so- called 'Asian Co- prosperity Sphere'. Indeed, unlike the experience of the silver currency bloc in the nineteenth century, the formation of the yen bloc by Japan did not result in the economic and monetary integration of East Asian economies. Rather, it led to the increasing disintegration of the East Asian economy, refuting the endogeneity of the optimum currency area criteria. This is demonstrated by the fact that the gap in the infl ation rate and income level between Japan and other East Asian countries widened during the Japanese occupation period. This experience was frustrating for Asian countries, for it meant that the regionalization which centred on the Japanese yen was for the prosperity of Japan only, and not for the co- prosperity of the Asian region as a whole. The yen bloc era is still deeply relevant. Its memory still haunts East Asian countries to this day, nourishing their distrust of Japan, and throws a shadow on the monetary and trade cooperation movements in East Asia. This explains why ideas about regional monetary cooperation were rarely heard of until the eruption of the Asian currency crises.

Since September 2018, Fishersgate Amateur Boxing Club which is a family run boxing club in Sussex has been running a Baggy Top Boxercise class for people who are overweight or who lack confidence, self-belief and motivation to keep fit, of which I have been attending!
I have always been interested in boxing as a sport, I love watching it on the TV but never thought I would actually start doing it myself until this class came about! No way in hell would I have had the confidence to walk into a boxing gym (with actual boxers, as A. I wouldn't have a clue what I was doing (I still don't fully understand all the stances and punches but it's not about that, it's about giving it a go!) and B. I am super unfit and would feel inferior to the boxers who have done this for years, but Fishersgate have made this possible.
It's a fantastic class run by 2 coaches, Dale who unfortunately has a broken stop watch, so if you are doing an exercise for 1 minute, its likely to last 2! And Joe who normally joins in on the fun and gives motivation to all! Each week the circuits and activities change so it never gets boring, and you can literally feel every muscle in your body being worked!
The class is all about pushing yourself and improving week after week, which everyone in the class is doing, the health and fitness of those who attend is 100% improving! When I first started, I didn't have a clue what I was doing, how to punch and my stamina was awful! However now I am able to keep up and push myself to the limit every week!
Fishersgate is not a high street gym, you do not have to commit to a year's membership, just turn up on a Thursday night at 7pm, pay £5 (which is an absolute bargain!) and join in! The class is for 1 hour; however, Dale loves to give us our monies worth, so it sometimes runs over, and gloves are provided if you don't have your own!
I pay over £100 per month for my gym membership, and none of the classes I attend are as good as the Baggy Top Boxercise class Fishersgate Boxing run!
If you have any questions re the class, just let me know and I can answer them for you! And if you plan on coming let me know! You won't regret it!

"I can't stress how much how amazing Dale is. As someone who is over weight and very self-conscious it not easy to walk into some where like a boxing gym. Before I even went to my first baggy top class Dale was messaging me encouraging me. The class is great. Dale & Joe are so supportive. The perfect place for anyone who feels uncomfortable exercising in public. Highly recommended!"
"Really enjoyed my first class, looking forward to next week!"
"Thank you for setting this up. Amazing atmosphere, laughter due to camaraderie… there's a glitch in the stop watch! 😂 and lots of encouragement from the trainer and attendees"
"I never thought for a moment I would ever walk into a boxing club. Being overweight and lacking self-confidence I came the first week feeling extremely nervous and not looking forward to it. How wrong could I be. I LOVE IT! I look forward to Thursday's and have such a laugh. My fitness levels have improved massively and the inches are slowly disappearing. Massive thank you to Dale and Joe for running this brilliant class and making everybody feel welcome"
"Thank you Dale,Joe and Lana for a great introduction to baggy tops! Had a great time! What a lovely group of people! See ya next week🥊🥇"
"Had a great first session last night …. good to meet some lovely people .. thanks guys 🏃♀💪💪🥊🥊"
"Always a good night Thursday , always different and always a laugh and I am starting to see a difference 😁 well done Dale & Jo 👏🏼👏🏼 thanks for doing it"

Michelle Obama Hilariously Breaks Down Why Melania Trump's Inauguration Gift Exchange Appeared So Awkward
The former FLOTUS also explained to Ellen Degeneres how Barack stepped in and saved the day.
Administrators from a high school in Waverly, New York, are investigating an incident involving three white students who donned blackface and re-enacted the infamous 2009 domestic violence incident between Rihanna and Chris Brown at a school pep rally.
According to reports, the incident took place Friday before an audience of students, parents, administrators and alumni without interruption.
School district superintendent Joseph Yelich told local news outlet The Daily Review that administrators will meet Tuesday regarding the incident.
"The Waverly School District is committed to creating a positive atmosphere through our activities," Yelich told the paper. "I will be working with our building administrators, our staff and our students to examine our current activities and develop future activities consistent with our commitment."

The Man Who Does Not Read
Hello my lovelies :) This post marks the relaunch of my blog! I fell off the face of the earth last semester because college kept me busy. On the bright side, my classes helped me come back to you with a fresh perspective! One of my classes actually inspired me to write about this topic. The man who does not read...
ais the beginning of a quote by Mark Twain. "The man who does not read has no advantage over the man who cannot read." This quote really stuck with me, especially since watching GOT (who is excited for the final season in April??). In the show, not everyone could read and the idea left me dumbfounded. Growing up, I hated reading with a passion. I even went as far as lying to my 3rd grade teacher about how much I was reading during a reading competition (which led me to get grounded... not my proudest moment). When I picked up The Hunger Games, I was instantly obsessed. I thought it was the only series I would ever like. I loved it so much that I watched all the bonus features, wore t-shirts of it, had at least 10 posters in my room, and I made a 8x version of it out of cardboard boxes as a math project (you might be able to find a picture of this on facebook lol). My partner thought I was crazy, to say the least. Anyway, I was wrong to think I would never like another book. The next year, a girl that rode my bus was reading The Mortal Instruments series. She kept screaming when certain things happened in the plot, so I got curious. I asked her why she was so fascinated, and she leant me the first book so I could see for myself. And I did...
I became entranced with it and later all books fantasy and sci-fi. I guess I like escaping into a crazy world where there is always action and adventure. I attribute this to my adrenaline-junkie trait. But, sometimes I'm in class and we go around in a circle sharing the latest books we have read, and I am ashamed. Everyone else has read some meaningful non-fiction book or classic novel filled with symbolism, and I have only just started reading the latest Fantasy novel. I sometimes feel like the books I read aren't intelligent enough compared to my classmates, but because of this quote I realized: all that really matters is that I am reading.
It doesn't matter what you read as long as you enjoy reading it. People say reading isn't for everyone, but I say reading nonfiction or sci-fi or romance or whatever genre isn't for everyone. After all, I'm sure all our Netflix histories vary, too. It is easier to get into a show than to start a book because it takes less patience for the plot to kick off, but it is so rewarding to read a good book. You generally feel proud of yourself for devoting hours to it, and in the meantime you got to challenge your imagination to picture what the book is describing rather than see it on a screen. Each person is interested in different things. People just need to devote the time to finding which book peaks their interest. Then, like me, they will be hooked. I encourage all of you to pick up different books and see what interests you.
Much love from hails ;)

This is awesome! Reading has made you knowledgeable in ways that only you can understand. It allows you to think out of the box or book so to speak. It has provided you wisdom and guidance that brought you here to your dreams and passion. That is what this life is all about. We are only here on earth for such a short time. I'm so proud of you! Keep reading....it inspires me!

It's an unfortunate fact of life that hearing loss is part of getting older. Roughly 38 million people in the US suffer from some form of hearing loss, but since hearing loss is expected as we age, many people choose to ignore it. Neglecting hearing loss, however, can have severe negative side effects on a person's overall well-being beyond their inability to hear.
Why do so many people choose to simply live with hearing loss? According to an AARP study, More than half of seniors cited costs as the major concern while one third consider hearing loss as a minor problem that can be easily handled. However, those costs can increase astronomically when you factor in the significant side effects and ailments that are caused by neglecting hearing loss. Neglecting hearing loss has the following negative side effects.
Most people will not immediately connect the dots from fatigue to hearing loss. Alternatively, they will attribute exhaustion to several different factors, like slowing down due to getting older or a side-effect of medication. The fact is that the less you can hear, the more your body works to compensate, leaving you feeling drained. Imagine you are taking an exam like the SAT where your brain is totally concentrated on processing the task at hand. Once you're done, you likely feel exhausted. When you struggle to hear, the same thing happens: when having conversations, your brain is working to fill in the blanks – and when there is a lot of background sound this is even more difficult – and as you try to process the conversation, you spend valuable energy. This type of chronic exhaustion can affect your health by leaving you too tired to keep yourself healthy, skipping out on things like cooking healthy meals or going to the gym.
Mental Decline
Johns Hopkins University conducted a study that linked hearing loss to , accelerated brain tissue loss, and dementia. Although these links are correlations instead of causations, it's thought by researchers that the more cognitive resources used attempting to fill in the blanks of a conversation, the less there are to focus on other things like memorization and comprehension. The decline of brain function is sped up and there is a loss of grey matter with the additional draw on cognitive ability that comes with getting older. The process of cognitive decline can be reduced and senior citizens can stay mentally fit by the regular exchange of ideas through conversation. The fact that a link was discovered between hearing loss and a loss of cognitive functions is promising for future research since the causes of these ailments can be determined and treatments can be formulated when hearing and cognitive experts team up.
Issues With Your Mental Health
The National Council on the Aging conducted a study of 2,300 seniors who suffered some form of hearing loss and discovered that paranoia, anxiety, and depression negatively affected the emotional well being more often than those who don't have hearing loss. The link between hearing loss and mental health problems makes sense since people with hearing loss commonly have difficulty communicating with others in family or social situations. This can lead to depression after suffering from prolonged feelings of isolation. If neglected, anxiety and even paranoia can appear due to these feelings of isolation and exclusion. It's been shown that recovery from depression is helped by hearing aids. But a mental health professional should still be consulted if you have depression, anxiety, or paranoia.
Heart Disease
Our bodies are one interconnected machine – if one part stops functioning as it should, it might have a negative effect on another apparently unrelated part. This is the situation with our ears and hearts. Case in point, hearing loss will happen when blood doesn't flow easily from the heart to the inner ear. Another disease that can impact the inner ear's nerve ending, and is also associated with heart disease is diabetes which causes messages from the ear to the brain to be mixed up. In order to determine whether loss of hearing is caused by heart disease or diabetes, if you have a family history of those illnesses contact both a hearing expert and a cardiac specialist because neglecting the symptoms can lead to severe or even fatal repercussions.
If you suffer from hearing loss or are having any of the negative effects listed above, please contact us so we can help you live a healthier life. Make your appointment for a hearing test.

Kenwood KFC-6996PS 6x9 Speakers
Kenwood's KFC-6996PS 6x9 speakers provide a big upgrade in factory sound systems that use 6x9-inch speakers.
Kenwood KFC-6996PS 6x9 Speakers
Kenwood's KFC-6996PS 6x9 speakers provide a big upgrade in factory sound systems that use 6x9-inch speakers. These 5-way, 650-watt beauties are blowing everyone away when they are demonstrated. It's an open secret that the original speakers in most new vehicles are designed to sound good for a year or two, then start losing quality because of weather and vibration. These speakers are designed to drop directly into many models because of their low installation profile. Centered in the woofer are a 1-3/4-inch paper cone mid, 4/5-inch ceramic tweeter and two ½-inch ceramic tweeters. Get ready for sound quality you never imagined in your ride. Enhanced sound and reduced distortion come from the Diamond Array Pattern woofer cone. The Acoustic Sound Harmonizer of KFC-6996PS controls the woofer sound waves and produces a smooth and natural sound by limiting the frequencies that pass through the holes of the tweeter panel. Sound Field Enhancer tweeter design means you get strong frontward sound as well as a wider sound field in 5kHz and higher frequencies. The black painted yoke and plate mean heat is released efficiently inside the magnetic circuit. That results in temperature reduction of the voice coil and improved durability. The new woofer damper design uses stress leveling points to increase durability and provide a smoother sound response. If you suspect you aren't getting all you should from your factory system, take a quick trip to Audio Express / Quality Auto Sound and listen to what you've been missing. Tell the friendly staff you want to know if the Kenwood KFC-6996PS 6x9 speakers are the right choice for you.

The traditional pressure in academia for faculty to "publish or perish" advances knowledge in established areas. But it also might discourage scientists from asking the innovative questions that are most likely to lead to the biggest breakthroughs, according to a new study spearheaded by a UCLA professor.
Since the 1980s, leading U.S. firms have announced massive downsizing plans in the name of maximizing shareholder value, but some observers are skeptical about how serious firms are in implementing these plans. Building on political theories of corporate governance, I examine how conflicts of interest and alignment among investors, workers, and top managers affect the implementation of announced downsizing plans.
Conventional research in organizational theory highlights the role of board interlocks in facilitating business collective action. In this article, I propose that business collective action affects the evolutionary path of interlock networks. In particular, large market players' response after a collective action to the classic problem of the "exploitation" of the great by the small provides a mechanism for interlocks to evolve.
Community reactions against organizations can be driven by negative information spread through a diffusion process that is distinct from the diffusion of organizational practices. Bank panics offer a classic example of selective diffusion of negative information. Bank panics involve widespread bank runs, although a low proportion of banks experience a run. We develop theory on how organizational similarity, community similarity, and network proximity create selective diffusion paths for resistance against organizations.
Do police treat religious-based protest events differently than secular ones? Drawing on data from more than 15,000 protest events in the United States (1960 to 1995) and using quantitative methods, we find that law enforcement agents were less likely to show up at protests when general religious actors, actions, or organizations were present. Rather than reflecting privileged legitimacy, we find that this protective effect is explained by religious protesters' use of less threatening tactics at events.
Despite growing acceptance of a "new fatherhood" urging fathers to be engaged in family life, men's relative contributions to housework and child care have remained largely stagnant over the past twenty years. Using data from in-depth interviews, we describe how identity processes may contribute to this persistent inequality in parenting. We propose that the specificity of men's identity standards for the father role is related to role-relevant behavior, and that the vague expectations many associate with "new fatherhood" both contribute to and result from men's underinvolvement.
Although research has established a very strong relationship between the presence of a psychiatric disorder and victimization in prisons, some gaps remain in our understanding. This study considers the importance of gender differences in this relationship. Estimates based on the 2004 Survey of Inmates in State and Federal Correctional Facilities show that psychiatric disorders have a stronger relationship with victimization among male inmates than among female inmates. Yet the size of the gender difference varies greatly depending on the specific disorder.
Numerous studies document that higher education is associated with a reduced likelihood of depression. The protective effects of higher education, however, are known to vary across population subgroups. This study tests competing theories for who is likely to obtain a greater protective benefit from a college degree against depression through an analysis of data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health and recently developed methods for analyzing heterogeneous treatment effects involving the use of propensity scores.
This paper contrasts two money-related stressors—debt and economic hardship—and clarifies where debt fits into the stress process model. Debt may be a direct or indirect stressor, as something mediated by psychosocial resources, and may be a potential buffer, interacting with economic hardship. The analyses use data from a two-wave panel study of 1,463 adults. One way debt is distinct from economic hardship is that debt is more common among economically advantaged groups.
Social scientists have drawn on theories of embeddedness to explain the different ways legal, political, and cultural frameworks shape markets. Often overlooked, however, is how the materiality of nature also structures markets. In this article, I suggest that neo-Polanyian scholars, and economic sociologists more generally, should better engage in a historical sociology of concept formation to problematize the human exemptionalist paradigm their work upholds and recognize the role of nature in shaping markets and society.
