The Hunters raced away to a 12-0 lead after tries from Stargroth Amean in the 4th minute and Watson Boas in the 10th.
The home side responded with three tries to Carlin Anderson, Paul Byrnes and then Jonathon Reuben just three minutes out from half time.
This left the score at 16-12 at the break with the Blackhawks ahead.
The second half saw no points scored until the 62nd minute when Israel Eliab crossed over to level the score.
Marum has added young Muka Peter Kulu, Sailas Gahuna, Esau Siune and Paul Wawa in the squad.
The squad:
1. Stargroth AMEAN 2. Bland ABAVU 3. Israel ELIAB 4. Willie MINOGA 5. Butler MORRIS 6. Ase BOAS © 7. Watson BOAS 8. Wellington ALBERT 9. Wartovo PUARA JR 10. Brandy PETER 11. David LOKO 12. Nixon PUT 13. Stanton ALBERT 14. Enock MAKI 15. Moses MENINGA 16. Rhadley BRAWA 17. Karo KAUNA Jnr 18. Muka Peter KULU 19. Esau SIUNE 20. Paul WAWA 21. Sailas GAHUNA
Woolf said ball control and the fifth play options is what urgently needs to be addressed before the next game.
"Well firstly, congratulations to the Hunters. I thought they played really well. They're obviously one of the form teams in the competition at the moment. The results certainly showed that.
"From our point of view, we're just not where we need to be at the moment. I was really disappointed with that.
The visitors crossed the try line after two minutes of play when leading competition points scorer Carlin Anderson crossed over to score.
The Hunters responded immediately through enforcer David Loko, who sliced through the defence to score under the posts.
Buoyed on by a vocal home crowd of 6,768, the Hunters grabbed their second four-pointer through fullback Stargroth Amean, who scored in similar fashion to the first try.
The points continued to come easy with Boas kicking a penalty followed by another try to Amean in the 29th and Willie Minoga in the 33rd.
This was announced yesterday at the Cup launch by General Manager of Air Niugini, Dominic Kaumu, in the presence of officials from the PNG Rugby Football League and SP Hunters.
Kaumu explained this is to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Kokoda Trail campaign plus the recently launched direct flights between Port Moresby and Townsville.
The challenge for the Cup will be annual.
Trailing 10-4 in the first half, the Hunters came back hard in the second half, sending in Thompson Teteh for an unconverted opener to minimise the lead to 8-10.
Blackhawks retaliated, kicking a penalty to lead to 12-8 before Andrew Niemoeller scored the 58th minute try to further their lead to 18-8.
Ten minutes later, Edward Goma grounded the ball through a set play from Watson Boas' grubber kick for 14-18.
Marum said after the game that Blackhawks are a quality side and it was a narrow win.
The coach admitted that they did too many errors in the second half but they were lucky to win the game by one point.
"We just have to go back to the recorded videos and see where we went wrong and we can polish up in those areas.
"We've won five out of six games but we still got a lot of work to do," Marum said.
The coach added that with former Hunter Willie Minoga on the Blackhawks side, their focus was on everyone out there and not just on Minoga.
It is a big turnout here and the crowd is quickly building up as the clock ticks down for kick off at 3pm today.
The match will be televised live on TV Wan Sports HD.
Both teams are currently warming up for the match.
The top of the ladder clash is expected to attract a huge crowd as Hunters host their second home game.
As usual, the home team had a morning walk and is based in camp at the PNG Institute of Public Administration while the Panthers are based at the Holiday Inn Hotel.
PNG Rugby Football League chief executive officer Bob Cutmore said previously that it is tradition that teams take time off from training to prepare mentally and maintain team spirit before a game.
The Hunters are coming off a 4 game winning streak after recording a 28-20 victory over the Mackay Cutters in Round 4 last weekend.
Currently situated in 3rd place on the ladder with an impressive 4 win and 1 loss record, the PNG Hunters are a strong physical side who will no doubt prove a handful for the Blackhawks on their home soil.
It will be a game to watch as former Hunter Willie Minoga "the Mack Truck" will for the first time set foot on his home soil at the National Football Stadium with his new side the Blackhawks to go up against his former team mates.

Katherine Hull: New Season, New Attitude
In a frank admission Katherine Hull says she should never have played the tour last year.
In what turned out to be one of her worst seasons on the LPGA Tour, where the Queenslander went winless and missed the cut six times, Hull says she should have taken the advice of her caddy at the start of the year.
Katherine Hull (Credit: Anthony Powter)
"I probably should have listened to Vern my caddy in March," she said.
"He said to me 'Kat just take the year off,' but I have that stubborn gung ho personality and I was thinking that I could just charge my way through."
Hull endured, as she put it, some "man issues" and then an injury, which wasn't properly diagnosed until October. Her world ranking also plummeted to 52 from a career high 10th.
"Vern knew I was struggling mentally and physically so much," she said.
"He is a good friend too so he knew and he didn't want to see me struggle so much, bless his heart. He was the one that probably suffered almost as much as I did."
"I barely wanted to practice and playing didn't motivate me a whole lot either, so it was a hard thing to go through and I have learnt a whole lot from it."
While trying to cope with her relationship breakdown, Hull also discovered that there was little fluid left in her L4 and L5 joints in her back.
While a common injury for golfers, it wasn't until October, while playing in Asia, that she discovered she had sprained a joint in her lower back, which was causing most of her pain.
"I shouldn't have played but I did and I ended up out of balance," she said.
"I now know that if my piriformis muscle in my lower back gets really tight it can pull things out of alignment in my pelvis."
While Hull works hard in the gym with her personal trainer, she admits post golf she has been a bit lazy.
"As much as I do in the gym I just needed to be taking better care of myself," she said.
"I look at the tennis players and they are doing ice baths practically every day after they compete and work with physios every day who stretch them out and I wasn't really doing any of that."
"It was a wake up call for me and it is going to be a matter of being disciplined with it."
The 29-year-old is now entering her ninth season with renewed purpose and the benefit of some tough life lessons.
"I know my game is good enough to be in the top ten," she said.
"Realistically I am going to set my goal to top 20 and it is just going to be a matter of staying injury free and doing all that corrective stuff and recovery stuff and also working just as hard, if not harder, on my short game than I have in the past."
Hull has discussed a programme with coach Steve McRae and together they have targeted several tournaments to work towards winning.
"I picked six and realistically there are four and they are towards the last half of the year because I know my body is not exactly where I want it to be right now," she said.
Hull, like so many golfers, is a perfectionist and will not leave anything to chance this year.
"The slate is clean and it is going to be a matter of 'Katherine, how hard to you want to work?'," she said.
"After last year I am fired up. One win a season has been fine but multiple wins is the ultimate goal."
"It is going to be hard because the talent is so much better, the best it has ever been, but I believe I have the game to do it."

6th April – Beyond The Groove label / Kobalt Music Recordings
Following a successful UK and Europe tour, multi-instrumental producer Tom Misch's Geography builds on the DIY works employed in previous projects, Beat Tape 1 and 2, Out to Sea and the multi-layered 5 Day Mischon.
Geography is a more polished, less adventurous album, but this shows the growth Misch has gone through as a musician and producer. It's also a product of his exposure to the wider music world with collaborations with GoldLink and De La Soul.
It's no secret that the producer loves J Dilla and the album constantly shows this. During his tour, he spoke about his admiration of J Dilla before playing 'Tick Tock'. This song recaptures his humble beginnings as a bedroom beat-making youngster, quickly changing tone to showcase his new-found funk influence.
The track starts off with a countdown for a rocket lift-off before seamlessly moving into the instrumental section, indicative of the multi-layered nature of the artist that Misch has grown into. He can seamlessly and naturally combine genres making it seem easy. Misch's sophisticated range is further apparent in tracks such as 'You're On My Mind' and 'Movie', which experiment with a D'Angelo influence neo-soul sound.
Despite his rise in popularity Misch has stayed humble, bringing out his friends on shows, using his sister Polly for vocals on 'Movie' and paying a homage to his south London upbringing on 'South of the River'. But perhaps the highlight of the album is his instrumental cover of Stevie Wonder's 'Isn't She Lovely.' This track shows that Misch isn't afraid to dip into what is out there and do it justice.
Of course, the album isn't perfect but it shows the potential Misch has. Some of the songs do start sounding similar but this is expected for someone so new in the game. Previous works have been collab heavy, but there are less of these in Geography. One of those rare artists who does not fit into a genre, the album is indicative of this and will cement his place as one of the UK's top independent producers.

How to call a vbscript in powershell. I tried a few that works manually but through SCCM it does not execute the vbscript.

It's pretty poor etiquette to post the same question when you've not received the answer you want to a previous post.
So why on God's green Earth would you need to run a VBS from a Powershell script? It would be better to translate the VBS to Powershell.
Answered 08/31/2016 by: anonymous_9363
Why not, I do it all the time... along with cauterizing my paper-cut wounds in salt, washing them with vinegar and drying the tears from my eyes with a handkerchief soaked in onion essence...
Well, I posted it again because, it said the post is hidden from public view considering it a spam. Assuming public wont be able to see, I reposted it again. And thanks for answering, I can translate to powershell, I wanted to try calling the vbs. If there is an option why not use it :)
SCCM handles VB Scripts no problem. Check the specifics of your script, also ensure that your command line within SCCM Application/Package has cscript or wscript preceding your script name.

Using that argument coupled with the fact that you're calling a script that (presumably) uninstalls something...see here!

Elaine Paige: From Barnet to Broadway
PUBLISHED: 16:02 15 February 2010 | UPDATED: 15:38 20 February 2013
Singer Elaine Paige is celebrating 40 years in showbusiness. Can it really be that long? asks Jess Alldred
ELAINE Paige may only be 4ft 11ins tall, but in singing terms she is huge. Her voice, her smile and her ability to reach each and every member of an audience has made her one of the biggest stars of British musical theatre.
Elaine has recorded 20 solo albums as well as six cast albums; she has won five Olivier Awards and has been invested as an OBE. She is a producer, a broadcaster and as a leading lady has a string of smash hit musicals to her name. However, this international musical phenomenon began life much closer to home, in Hertfordshire.
She was born as Elaine Jill Bickerstaff, in Barnet, March 1948. Her parents were Irene and Eric and they had one elder daughter, Marion. Eric was an estate agent and a keen drummer in a four-piece band called The Arcadians. Irene was a milliner and had a hat shop in Barnet high street. To this day Elaine is still fascinated by hats.
'I still can't pass a hat shop without taking a peek inside,' Elaine admits. 'I love hats and always leave a milliner's with at least one lovely box under my arm. I can't help it!
'Being invested as an OBE was a lovely excuse to wear a gorgeous hat. Both my parents were able to go to the Palace with me to celebrate the special day.'
She received her OBE for services to theatre and was delighted to accept the honour. It was a far cry from the schoolgirl singing in front of her friends and family in Barnet.
'As a teenager I would listen to the soundtrack of West Side Story and be transported away to another world'
Music was a big part of Elaine's early life. Her mother had a good singing voice and her grandparents had been involved with concert parties, both performing in the shows and writing them. During her childhood, Elaine listened to her mother's favourite records - the likes of Ella Fitzgerald, Perry Como and Matt Monro.
Elaine attended the Southshaw Secondary Modern School for Girls, in Oakley Park. There she was inspired by the Head of Music, Ann Hill, who encouraged her to take part in the school performance of The Messiah. Elaine has subsequently referred to Mrs Hill as 'visionary' for her guidance during those early years.
'She was a wonderful, wonderful music teacher,' Elaine reminisces. 'She was so supportive and a great help to me. I kept in touch with her after school.'
It was after another school show, The Boy Mozart, that Elaine's father realised her genuine talent and asked if she would like to go to stage school. This was a thrilling suggestion for Elaine and later that year, she became a student at the Aida Foster Stage School, in North London.
As a teenager, Elaine loved to sing. 'I was always singing - I couldn't help it,' she laughs. 'I would listen to the soundtrack of West Side Story and be transported away to another world!'
Today, some 40 years on, Elaine is as stylish as ever. She has a sassy blonde crop, an enviable figure and an illuminating smile. It's impossible to believe she is 60 years old and is about to embark on a national tour to celebrate a 40-year career in theatre. Her critically-acclaimed, award-winning roles include Eva Peron in Evita, Grizabella in Cats and Florence in Chess. Edith Piaf in Piaf, Norma Desmond in Sunset Boulevard, Anna Leonowens in The King & I and Mrs Lovett in Sweeney Todd all followed. Most recently she returned to the West End in the title role of The Drowsy Chaperone.
'I have been around such a long time, there is plenty of material to choose from!' she laughs when discussing her repertoire. The tour will feature many of her famous songs, as well as some personal favourites. 'It's hard to choose what to leave out because so many of the songs have wonderful memories attached to them!'
She mentions some of her most enduring roles. 'Evita will always be there right at the top as one of my most memorable shows,' she says of the 1978 musical hit produced by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice. 'That was the one show which entirely changed my life forever.'
This was her big break as a leading lady. She simply mesmerised audiences and critics alike.
'Chess was memorable because it gave me my number one single, I Know Him So Well, with Barbara Dickson.Piaf was wonderful. It was such an emotionally charged character to play; a real acting role.
'And Sunset Boulevard was fantastic because it finally took me to Broadway which was thrilling. I will never forget those sensational days after the show opened: they all went crazy in New York. It was a whirlwind!'
Despite all her experience, Elaine admits she still gets nervous before she steps out on stage. 'As you get older you are more aware of the pitfalls: the dreadful things that can go wrong during a live performance. So I think the nerves get worse!'
'Chess was memorable because it gave me my number one single, I Know Him So Well'
Elaine is not particularly superstitious, but she does have a routine that she follows every night before curtain-up. 'I tend to have a particular order of doing things and without fail on my dressing room table you'll find a small clock and the lace mat that was my grandmother's.'
Elaine chooses her characters carefully. She certainly knows the roles she wants to play.
'I adore playing strong women. They are so much more fun and interesting to play than the wimps. Girlie girls are so boring. In fact most of my leading ladies have had a similar thread linking them: they are all strong, feisty characters. I enjoy these types of women the best.'
When she was younger, Elaine wanted to be a tennis player and is still a keen amateur. She has played charity matches with the likes of Cliff Richard and Virginia Wade.
'I really like playing tennis. But, I am actually really rather useless! I was awarded Woman of the Match, of all things, at a Cliff Richard Tennis Foundation charity game a while back. I played alongside Virginia Wade - which was slightly awesome. I am useless, so I decided that buffoonery was the only way to get by and it was great fun. I just caused a bit of a laugh and entertained them, I suppose. I didn't know what else to do.'
And although Elaine's schedule is busy and often exhausting, she loves keeping up with her friends. 'An ideal day off would be meeting up with some of my pals and going out to the theatre or the cinema and then heading off for supper somewhere,' she says.
'I love eating out. My favourite haunts are The Ivy or La Caprice. Another favourite is Rules - one of the oldest restaurants in London. The food is fantastic and beautifully presented. Their sticky toffee pudding is glorious.'
In addition to the touring, recording and performing, Elaine has also become a hugely popular radio presenter. Since September 2005 she has presented the Elaine Paige On Sunday show which boasts more than 1.7 million listeners. As well as playing all her favourite music, she has had the chance to interview celebrities such as Sir Elton John, Angela Lansbury and Liza Minnelli. And she loves it.
'I have no regrets. I love my work and am proud of my career. I am very lucky,' she concludes.
With a great new book, a new album, a national tour and a radio show, it is clear that this lady is as busy as ever.
Memories by Elaine Paige is published by Oberon Books. Her latest CD, Elaine Paige - Sweet Memories, is released by Demon Music Group. The concert Elaine Paige - Celebrating Forty Years On The Stage will be touring the UK in February - March 2009.

Promoting Good School Attendance Guide
The Headteacher has the discretion to decide whether absence can be authorised and whether a holiday in term time can be authorised or not. In the event of a parent putting in an application for their child to be removed for a holiday in term time, many factors will be considered including the following:

Sports Premium
For the last four years schools have been allocated a sum of money to improve the quality of sport in primary schools. The funding is known as the Primary Physical Education and Sport Grant.
The purpose of the grant is to make additional and sustainable improvements to the quality of PE and sport offered at Hill View. At Hill View the decision was taken, by the Governing Body, to employ specialist coaches and teachers to work with the children and teaching staff to build capacity and capability within the school to ensure that improvements made now will benefit pupils joining the school in future years. PE specialist coaches and teachers will lead professional development, model lessons, team teach and coach staff. In this way, the quality of PE will be developed through the school. improving their skills and in turn developing the quality of teaching throughout the school.In addition the funding will be used to develop or add to the PE and sport activities that our school already offers.
To be successful we expect to see improvements across the following five key indicators:
- The engagement of all pupils in regular physical activity – it is recommended that all children and young people aged 5 to 18 engage in at least 60 minutes of physical activity a day, of which 30 minutes should be in school
- The profile of PE and sport is raised across the school as a tool for whole-school improvement increased confidence, knowledge and skills of all staff in teaching PE and sport broader experience of a range of sports and activities offered to all pupils.
- Increased participation in competitive sport

When Li Yao boisterously crossed through the canyon and appeared at the contact point of the Starfire Union carrying the jade chip, the huge campus entered a strange silence for an entire five minutes.
The Thunderbolt Cup at the Wasteland Battle Network happened to have not a single thread posted for a good long while.
Everyone was shocked in disbelief.
Only after a long while did someone make a short post:
"This match will be remembered for the next five decades to come!"
This post ignited all the emotions of everyone. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of thousands of posts flooded the Battle Network:
"So powerful, so crazy, this is truly shocking!"
"What's the matter, why has Li Yao not come out yet?"
"1 vs 2,000, he really did it!"
"Zhao Tianchong is smart, Lu Tieshan is calm and stable. These two aren't people who can be easily fooled. All of the traps set by Li Yao had indeed been seen through by them, but who would have thought that all these traps were just bait to hide the last but the deadliest trap!"
Every student's heart, who had watched the match, was in turmoil. They could not calm themselves down for a long while.
If it was someone who didn't know the details of the match, saw the outcome, he would definitely think that the members of Chaos Edge Hall and Iron Fist Club were morons who couldn't even catch a single person even when their numbers reached 2,000.
Only those who had watched the match from beginning to end knew full well that both sides had done their best. Basically, they did not make any mistakes.
If it was someone else, perhaps he or she would have been assassinated at the very beginning or would have been unable to notice the remote-controlled shuttle camouflaged as a rock, or maybe he or she would have found the first, or maybe second, but would not have broken open the second shuttle to check inside.
As long as anyone committed any of these mistakes, Li Yao would not have gone through so much trouble and would have long won!
It was the high-level plays of Zhao Tianchong and Lu Tieshan which forced Li Yao to resort to any means necessary; this resulted in a brilliant match!
In a moment, the entire campus was covered in a hubbub of marvel, sighs, retrospections...almost 30 to 50% of all the students had gathered together and were excitedly discussing the match.
Many students who were relatively slow were still muddleheaded until this moment. They kept pestering others with questions.
"Wait, please tell me, why did Li Yao intentionally reveal the ambush at Chaos Edge Hall's base?"
At the VIP room, although the high-level figures from various cultivation sects weren't speaking, the surprised look was still dangling on their faces.
Long Wenhui sighed with relief as he gradually said, "Old Bai, if you were the leader of Iron Fist Club, how would have you dealt with this?"
Bai Mushen's complexion became dignified as he slowly replied, "It's quite difficult. Every trap has flaws. Obviously, the series of traps set by Li Yao had a multitude of flaws. Since we are viewing from sideline, and discussing after everything had occurred, we can obviously find ways to deal with them from theories.
"But in combat, in order to crack those plans, there are three prerequisites.
"First, the leader of both sides need to have high-level leadership skills. Their commands should be like arms directing the fingers.
"Second, their men need to be extremely clear headed. They should always do as they are told, never disobey. No matter what, they should not be incited or affected by rage.
"Third, both sides must have absolute trust in each other. Both sides should have treated Li Yao as their biggest enemy and should have sincerely cooperated."
Bai Mushen bitterly smiled and continued, "However, in combat, these three prerequisites cannot be achieved.
"The 2,000 contestants were all hot-headed and happened to have conflicts with each other. How can they obey orders like a well-trained elite army?
"I suspect Li Yao of exploiting the rules by disguising his injuries.
"In combat, injuries are injuries, no appearance of electric arcs and bloody aura would impair the enemy's judgment."
Long Wenhui said with a smile, "In reality, there are many human cultivators and demon beasts who practice special techniques which can feign death or fall in suspended animation.
"Moreover, in combat, Chaos Edge Hall simply didn't need to go and seize jade chip. Their purpose was to fight Iron Fist Club. Had they cooperated with Li Yao, they could have dealt a heavy blow to Iron Fist Club. Why did they go through so much hassle?
"That's why, they soon fell deeply into Li Yao schemes, and ever so quickly crumbled."
Long Wenhui shrugged his garlic-shaped nose as he said with a smile to Xiong Baili who was sitting next to them, "Dean Xiong, I would like to talk to Student Li Yao alone, is it possible?"
Southwest of Wild Waves City, on a secluded walk next to a quiet artificial lake.
Having finished the match, Li Yao, without even clearly looking at what the Thunderbolt Cub looked like, ran all the way there non-stop. His chest heaved up and down, his heart beat like drums.
In front of him was an ordinary looking, bulbous-nosed man in a gandoura [1] with wide sleeves. It was none other than the Vice-President of Hundred Saber Alliance, the Core Formation Stage powerhouse, Long Wenhui.
It was the person who had captured Demon King Pieu at Verdant Tarn City!
He was truly an illustrious and important figure of Federation.
Li Yao's heart beat quickly with tension, apprehension, envy, worship, thirst...all kinds of complex emotions, gathered into flickering flames.
Long Wenhui, on the other hand, didn't put on any airs. His gait itself was somewhat lazy, giving the impression that, apart from on the battlefield, he had no intention of spending even an iota of his strength.
Long Wenhui leisurely said, "Student Li Yao, it's not the first time we have seen each other. At the Verdant Tarn City, you inadvertently spied on my recently refined double-edge saber, only to end up treated as an enemy by my saber. At that time, I firmly remembered you.
"A Refinement Stage cultivator who has yet to become twenty can actually make my blade have hostile intentions is definitely not some ordinary character!
"Therefore, when I came to know that you alone would be fighting against 2,000 members of the Combat Department in this year's Thunderbolt Cup, I especially came to watch, and as expected, you didn't let me down.
"I really want to know, how you thought of those schemes?"
Li Yao was taken by surprise. How could he have ever imagined an honorable Core Formation Stage Cultivation such as Long Wenhui especially came for him.
However, from the beginning, Li Yao was someone who was heaven-daring. Having noticed Long Wenhui had converged his energy, and amiable in nature, just like any ordinary uncle from the neighborhood, the tension in Li Yao's heart abated gradually before Li Yao spoke frankly, "It's actually nothing. I grew up in Magical Equipment Graveyard. Since the time I can remember, I, just for a piece of bread or half a bottle of water, had to fight and scheme. I was small and weak and didn't like joining gangs. So, if I wanted to contend with those vicious adults, all I could do was use my head.
"Since I was eight, I lived in Magical Equipment Graveyard, which housed a total of fifteen different gangs. All of which consisted of tall and robust adults.
"Whichever gang it was, they could crush me quite easily.
"But amid the cracks between these gangs, I survived. I lived very well!
"After ten years, when I was alive and well on my eighteenth birthday, of the fifteen gangs only four remained!
"A lot of things have long integrated with my blood and turned into a kind of instinct. What appears to be sinister schemes in Zhao Tianchong's and Lu Tieshan's eyes, are as normal as using chopsticks to eat to me."
Long Wenhui slowed down his footsteps. "Very good!
"Student Li Yao, let's be honest with each other, what say you? I very much like you; I believe you are a rare genius, and Im here to formally invite you to the Hundred Saber Alliance!
"The Hundred Saber Alliance can be counted among the top hundred sects in the federation and is at its peak. It can even rival with top ten sects and has a long history. It has deep heritage. It's a glorious sect well worthy of its name and reputation!
"If you are willing to sign a contract, I can provide you with resources for three years to study. In these three years, you can freely study at the Grand Desolate War Institution, and the Hundred Saber Alliance will provide you adequate cultivation resources exclusively for your personal use!
"And when you are free during vacation, you can come to the Hundred Saber Alliance too. I will arrange for a true expert to guide you so that you can quickly advance in combat.
"Once you graduated, I will give you two options.
"First, you can enter the Hundred Saber Alliance's R & D Center of Sabers.
"Although our Hundred Saber Alliance is a combat sect, we have paid attention to saber techniques for centuries and also possess very rich experience in refining sabers. As far as the level of refining saber-type magical equipment is concerned, we are second to none in the entire federation.
"Second, you can join the expedition team and become an explorer who can tread in places where few people have ever gone, the places where demon beasts roam freely, discover new mines!
"As you know, in the Wasteland, the ground bears countless treasure. Anyone with adequate strength and guts can discover them.
"And I believe that you are that kind of person!"
Having spoken till here, Long Wenhui halted his steps as he smilingly looked at Li Yao.
The pounding heart, which Li Yao had just calmed down, once again started to beat ever more fiercely.
The invitation of Hundred Saber Alliance!
The Hundred Saber Alliance, a super sect that was ten times stronger than the Crimson Nimbus Sect!
Furthermore, Long Wenhui offered two positions. The former one was joining the R & D Center of Sabers, which was still nothing as compared to the latter, which was becoming an explorer which was the one of the most lucrative occupations coveted by many cultivators!
Whether it was humans fighting with the demon beasts, or training of cultivators, what was the most indispensable?
Resources! Crystals! Mines!
Joining an exploratory team as an explorer, one could tread the remote and uncharted region which few had ever trodden, struggle against nature itself, fight with demon beasts, discover new resources, crystals, and mines!
Not only could one become rich overnight, he or she could be revered as the hero of the sect, and could even become a star of the entire federation!
Having been offered such a tempting proposition, Li Yao's heart palpitated with excitement.
However, after a moment of pondering, Li Yao still lightly shook his head and sincerely said, "President Long, I'm very grateful for you your appreciation. I too hope to join the Hundred Saber Alliance but before that, I want to complete the Project Mystic Skeleton with my teacher first and craft the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit!
"I don't know when I will be able to complete the Project Mystic Skeleton, therefore, I cannot accept your invitation."
Long Wenhui was somewhat speechless. His lightning-like gazes directly pierced through Li Yao's eyes.
Li Yao braced his eyelid and clenched his teeth to persevere as he directly greeted Long Wenhui's gaze.
The glance between the two lasted for three seconds, but for Li Yao, it felt as long as three days and three nights.
Just before Li Yao was about to collapse, Long Wenhui suddenly receded his gaze and revealed a smile from the bottom of his heart.
A silver-white card sandwiched between Long Wenhui's fingers appeared as he held it in front of Li Yao.
"Adhering to your commitment and also bold, Student Li Yao, I appreciate you more and more!
"You can think of this card as another invitation. As for where it came from, it is from an organization which is at a whole new level as compared to my Hundred Saber Alliance!"
[1] A type of long robe or gown.

Hi guys,
I know most of you are disappointed by me, with no updates or notification whatsoever. So, first of all, let me apologize for everything. Second, the editors also have life, the previous editor has finished his schooling and looking or prepping for college, I'm not sure which one is it, as I didn't get much of the info from him, but all in all, he is super busy. Third, the editor issue had been standing for a month long, which was properly addressed to qidian, for which they had been looking for new editors. Looking for editors is not easy, as they had to test them first, which takes a lot of time, even now Millman97 has to step it before they could find editors. So please do understand our dilemma too. Fourth, I will be trying to make up for the chapters, as for how I will do it, I will show it rather than addressing it here. And last of all, tomorrow chapter will be a bit delayed.
Thank you for your understanding.

Remembering John Denver: Jim Horn on horns
ASPEN – By the late '70s, Jim Horn must have thought he'd seen most everything, and added the woodwind part to almost all of it. From the first hit record he played on – Canned Heat's 1968 folk-blues "Going Up the Country," which featured his prominent flute solo – Horn stayed firmly at the center of the popular music realm. He played on the Beach Boys' "Pet Sounds" and albums by Steely Dan, Jackson Browne and Jos Feliciano. Horn didn't exactly have a niche – his contributions were too widespread for that – but if he did have one, at least in the early '70s, it would have been "saxophonist to the English Invasion." He toured on Joe Cocker's notorious Mad Dogs & Englishmen romp around the world; played on the Rolling Stones' "Goats Head Soup"; and recorded with all of the Beatles, but had a particularly close relationship with George Harrison, playing on the "Dark Horse" album and in the Concert for Bangladesh in Madison Square Garden. "They just wanted to hit the American sound, and use American musicians," said Horn, who had grown up in Linwood, outside of Los Angeles.But the offer Horn got around 1977 represented something new. Renee Armand, Horn's girlfriend at the time (and later his wife), was singing in Aspenite John Denver's band. Armand introduced her boss to her boyfriend, and Denver invited him to join the group. Folk was not exactly Horn's thing, just as it would be somewhat foreign terrain for most saxophonists; Horn had gotten hooked on sax as a 12-year-old, listening to Fats Domino and other r&b and early rock acts. Denver had something very different in mind."I'd been playing all the pop stuff. I was playing baritone sax on Motown records, so this was a different kind of music. When John told me what he wanted me to do – emulate the sounds of the rain and wind and the water – I saw it was something different for me," Horn said Thursday morning at the Wheeler Opera House, just before rehearsal for the 13th Annual Tribute to John Denver concerts, on Friday and Saturday, Oct. 8 and 9. The concerts include Bill Danoff, co-writer of "Take Me Home, Country Roads" and "I Guess He'd Rather Be in Colorado"; comedian/musician Gary Mule Deer, who opened shows for Denver in the late '70s and early '80s; former Denver bandmates Alan Deremo, Chris Nole, Herb Pedersen, Jim Salestrom, Richie Garcia and Denny Brooks; and Mack Bailey, Jim Curry and Mollie Weaver. Also appearing as guest banjoist is Jim Horn's son, James.Being with Denver seemed to become a surprisingly comfortable fit. Horn – yes, he swears that horn is the name he was born with – stayed in Denver's band for 17 years, a musical bond matched in depth only by Horn's relatinship with Harrison. (Horn would go on to play on the late Harrison's 1987 solo album, "Cloud Nine," and also on both albums by the Traveling Wilburys, Harrison's side project with Bob Dylan, Tom Petty and Roy Orbison.)Being in Denver's band was like being thrown one big curveball for Horn; it required close attention to subtleties. "I said, I'll listen to the lyrics and go from there. I just played things I thought would work on the songs," Horn, who has made annual appearances in the tribute concerts dating back to 1998, the year after Denver died, said. "You have to adapt yourself to the feel of a song, what it's about, and go with it, decide which instrument – flute, sax, recorder – would sound best."Horn knew he was getting comfortable when, during a performance of "Sunshine on My Shoulder," he pulled out the soprano saxophone. Horn's acknowledgment was a big smile from Denver; it was the introduction of saxophone into Denver's sound.Still, the artistic challenges kept coming. And after a few years in the band, Denver told Horn that he wanted to do a tour of Europe that would include just a trio of Denver, percussionist Richie Garcia, and Horn. "That was a little harder," Horn recalled. "With just Richie and me backing him up, you couldn't make any mistakes."The close, long-lasting partnership with Denver didn't prevent Horn from compiling an enormous list of other collaborators. He had recorded with Toto and Garth Brooks, U2 and Warren Zevon, Billy Joel and Christopher Cross. And while he remains busy – for the past several years, he has led the horn section for country star Kenny Chesney's band, and also does frequent session work in Nashville, his home for 25 years – it can't be anything like the '60s, when Horn was being called in for three or four sessions a day in L.A. studios."You might work with Frank Sinatra in the morning and afternoon, then the Beach Boys in the evening, and then the Mamas & the Papas would call you to come in real late, maybe midnight," he said. "It was different every day. Sometimes you'd walk in and not know who you were going to work with."The Denver years were marked by a mellower predictability. Horn said that touring with Denver was always a first-class experience, and that Denver was easy to please – those smiles for surprising musical choices were a frequent occurrence. After the concerts, when some of the entourage went in search of nocturnal activity, Horn was Denver's regular companion in searching out the best curry in the vicinity.Horn said that part of Denver's slide in popularity in the later part of his career had to do with the subject matter of the songs."He was writing songs about, Why are we making weapons – that turned people off," Horn said. "His songwriting changed, and I think that hurt him a little bit. People wanted to hear his love songs. 'Annie's Song.'"email@example.com

He is of Brazilian descent and his birthplace is Cacador in the Santa Catarina region of Brazil. His professional career in mixed martial arts began in the year 2006 when he was aged 21.

They have done a very good job with Junior Dos Santos and his fighting has improved considerably. He has developed a very sound technique and his correct balance between speed and strike force has helped him win a lot of matches and earn a lot of reputation. The main guiding force behind his success has been his discipline. He is a very hard worked and very humble, he never forgets his roots and even plans to do something to help his people.

He has also been trained in Muay Thai which is another martial art and very effective indeed. In fight, he uses a mixture of several techniques and hence he becomes very unpredictable.

This article published yesterday on the author´s blog, lays out the importance of the events of the coming days for the immediate future of the country. June 18th is the deadline the government agreed on for the release of all political prisoners, and June 21st is the date the Nica Act stipulated for Pompeo to report to Congress about whether the Nicaraguan government was progressing in respect for human rights and fighting corruption. Later this month there is also an important meeting of the representatives to the OAS that will also be looking at the government´s compliance with the agreements signed in the negotiations with the Civic Alliance.
Will Ortega be able to stop the international sanctions?
By Enrique Saenz, June 17, 2019
[see original Spanish at https://enriquesaenz.com/2019/06/17/podra-ortega-detener-las-sanciones-internacionales/ ]
We are starting a week with two dates that can set the path for the coming months. First, June 18th. This is the date set in the commitments in the negotiation table for the definitive liberation of all the hostages by the regime. There are still 89 people imprisoned. In addition, other commitments that the government signed are yet to be fulfilled, among them the full re-establishment of citizen rights and freedoms, including the freedom of the press and freedom to demonstrate.
The other date is June 21st. The time frame set by the NICA ACT when the the Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, certifies before the US Congress whether the Ortega regime is carrying out effective steps in the direction of the following objectives:
- Trial of those responsible for acts of corruption and money laundering
- Trial of those responsible for human rights violations and crimes against humanity
- Re-establishment of the rule of law, respect for the law, the separation of powers
- Institutional reforms for holding early, free, transparent elections with independent international and national observation
- The protection of civil and political rights.
This is what the NICA ACT sets out. For everyone it is clear what the reality is, but it is not overdoing it to highlight the following points:
Ortega has not taken one step to fight corruption. It is natural, he would have to put himself at the head of the list of those to be tried. Rather, he has sought how to conceal BANCORP, a financial institution constituted with oil aid funds for the purpose of moving capital.
Ortega has not taken one step to try those responsible for human rights violations and crimes against humanity. This is natural, he would have to put himself at the top of the list of those to be tried. Rather, using his servants in the National Assembly, he imposed an amnesty law with the intention of covering himself with a mantle of impunity. It is obvious that the trial of those responsible will only be possible with Ortega out of power.
Ortega has not taken one step to re-establish the Rule of Law and the separation of powers. Rather, he violates the law at will. And let us not even mention the separation of powers. He turned judges and magistrates into executioners, and subjugates from the most lofty hierarchs of the powers of the state to the last council members of the smallest municipality. The only law in force is the will of the monarch.
Ortega has not taken one step to re-establish citizen rights and freedoms. Rather he maintains a de facto state of siege; his para military groups publicly move about committing abuses with complete impunity; he fortified a police state and an environment of generalized repression. He continues the closure of communications media, non governmental organizations, and the usurpation of property.
Ortega has not taken one step for electoral reforms that would make it possible for early, free, legitimate, transparent elections observed by credible international organizations.
On these points there is no mystery for anyone. Now we will see what the Secretary of State reports to the Congress. And what maneuvers Ortega will come up with in the coming days.
On the other hand, what happens this week will have an influence, without a doubt, on the deliberations of the foreign ministers of the continent within the framework of the General Assembly of the OAS, to be verified in Colombia, starting on June 26.
To finish, two considerations. The renewal of the Negotiating Table will only make sense if Ortega fully complies with the commitments that he assumed, beginning by the re-establishment of citizen rights and freedoms.
Second. The individual sanctions on hierarchs of the regime for corruption and human rights violations have nothing to do with sovereignty and self determination. Just the opposite. The violations of international law and agreements signed by the State of Nicaragua have consequences that the ringleaders of the regime are fully aware of.
Let us hope then that the outcomes of the current week mark a step forward in the struggle for freedom, justice and democracy.

Follow my Bliss! Those are the three words of wisdom that my good friend and fellow blogger shared with me. I have always loved that word...Bliss. There are lots of words for happiness and fulfillment but bliss just sounds glorious, doesn't it?
Now, I grew up with a woman that loved saying "look it up" whenever asked what a word meant and I love her for that because I have a very special relationship with my dictionary. This affair has only been strengthened by the addition of the dictionary.com app on my iPhone. I love being able to instantly look up an unknown word when reading. (And I love books that provide unknown words). So I looked it up. What word? Oh...bliss. You forgot what word we were discussing with my little tangent there? I understand.
So, bliss. Dictionary.com (a great site for fellow logophiles, by the way -- and yes that is a word, guess where I looked it up) and they defined it as such: supreme happiness; utter joy or contentment. Utter joy or contentment? Damn, that sounds good. That's what I'm going for here with one change. Utter joy and contentment.
So to my dear friend and blogger extraordinaire, I say, oh yeah. I am following my bliss. Hell, I am on the bliss train. Anyone need a lift? Otherwise, see you there.

Apple has landed in hot water once again as the company faces another trip to court. This comes only weeks after the news that Apple is heading for the Supreme Court over trouble with app developers. This time, two iPhone owners have come forward to complain about the screen size of the recent iPhone X models.
Size matters!
According to the complaint, the three iPhone X models (X, XR and XS) do not actually have screens which measure up to the advertised sizes. The suit alleges that, in Apple's own measurements, the company has wrongly included such non-screen areas as the notch and corners.
The X line is also the first in the iPhone family to use an OLED display, which relies on a diamond-shaped pixel configuration as opposed to the traditional LCD display. The lawsuit, filed in a San Jose court and reported by The Register, also alleges that the screen resolutions do not match up to advertised figures.
"The iPhone X Product is advertised as having 2436×1125 pixels, but in fact does not use true pixels with red, green, and blue subpixels in each pixel," the complaint states. "Instead, the Product has only false screen pixels, with just two subpixels per false pixel (2436×1125×2 = 5,481,000 subpixels), and it does not actually have any subpixels at all in the notch at the top of the screen or in the display-area corners."
The complaint also specifically takes issue with Apple's marketing claim that the iPhone X is "all screen". No one is sure what will happen just yet, with the complainants's attorneys only just seeking to have the case recognized. At the time of writing, Apple has kept quiet about the lawsuit for now.

Thomas Steger on the podium at the Keszthely Triathlon
One week after his win in Kirchbichl, Thomas went to Hungary to race the middle distance Keszthely Triathlon. A strong starter field with Andreas Raelert and Alessandro Degasperi waited but only one man was faster.
After a hard swim with a lot of waves and stormy conitions on the bike, Thomas was nearly as fast as Andi on the run leg. So he got second, only 3 minites behind the winner. What a great performance from our young pro on his way to the very top!

08 Dec Announcement of a New Policy Brief "Regional Integration in the Horn of Africa:by SIDRA
Today, Tuesday the 4th of December 2018, SIDRA Institute released its 8th Policy Brief titled "Regional Integration in the Horn of Africa: Is Prime Minister Abiy's Initiative an Institution ahead of its Time?". The Horn of Africa (HoA) region has been riddled with inter-state armed conflict, poverty, drought, extremism and famine. Dictatorships and authoritarian regimes have ruled much of the region and contributed to the broken political and social system in the region. Decades of underdevelopment coupled with social disparity and divisions along ethnic, religious, tribal, cultural and political lines have contributed to the conflicts and social upheavals within the region.
The Horn of Africa had not smelt any signs of integration until of recent in April 2018 when Mr.Abiy Ahmed was named Prime Minister of Ethiopia. It would be overly simplistic to attribute the concept of horn of Africa regional integration only to the inspiration of Mr Abiy Ahmed. For some time, this idea of regional integration was floated in a number of local and international forums as the springboard to construct viable polity to improve security and trade in the region.
It is with this background that this Policy Brief aims at analyzing whether this integration is an instituton ahead of its time. The Ethiopian PM called for the three countries, Ethiopia, Eritrea and Somalia to become one country with one leader, would this be possible? What are the challenges that may hinder the establishment of such confederation? The tripartite agreement between Ethiopia, Eritrea and Somalia, didn't include Djibouti, what are the implications to the region of not having Djibouti to such a plan? What implications it may have for "The Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD)", the eight-country security, economic and trade bloc in East Africa? Is the current Federal Government of Somalia in a position to cement such a plan, with Ethiopia and Eritrea who are much stronger politically, militarily and economically?

Freemasons collectively
the craft of a mason
a system of Morality and Fraternity steeped in tradition and replete with ancient symbolism
Freemasonry has a long tradition in western society, beginning in the Middle Ages, as a guild for masons. Over time, however, it became a fraternal society known for its benevolence and charitable giving. Many of America's most prominent citizens, including George Washington, were members. By the 1820s many people had become suspicious of the Masons because of their secret nature and apparently exclusive membership. Some saw it as an anti-democratic organization that undermined republican government and perpetuated the control of an elite.
