- All pieces of baggage in excess of 32 kg (70 lb) must be repacked to prevent injury to baggage handlers if they can be split. The weight limit restriction refers to a single item and will not affect the baggage allowance or excess baggage fee of your trip.

Extra Baggage Allowance for Infinity MileageLands Diamond/Gold/Silver members and other Star Alliance Members
|Card Tier
|Extra Baggage Allowance

|Gold Card (recognized as Star Alliance-Gold status)

|No additional allowance
|No additional allowance
|* The extra baggage allowance is ONLY for Infinity MileageLands Silver card members travelling on EVA Air/UNI Air operated international flights when you make your reservation on EVA Air/UNI Air flight. No extra baggage allowance is allowed for other carriers.
When Star Alliance Gold Members have interline connections with non-Star Alliance Airlines
Please be aware that extra baggage allowance APPLIES to Star Alliance Airlines' sector ONLY, if your connecting flights are non-Star Alliance Airlines, there might be a possibility of baggage excess fee from your extra allowance. For example:
- Taipei → Hong Kong → Dubai
- If Taipei to Hong Kong is operated by EVA Air, but connecting flight from Hong Kong to Dubai is Cathay Pacific (non-Star Alliance Airline), Star Alliance Gold Members do not have any extra baggage allowance on Hong Kong to Dubai sector and a possibility of baggage excess charge.
Itinerary including flights operated by other airlines (connection flights or codeshare flights)
According to IATA Resolution 302, a step-by-step process to that determines which carrier's rule to apply for an interline journey, where, for each checked portion:
- If the published baggage provisions among all participating carriers are the same; these provisions will apply.
- Where one or more published baggage provisions differ between participating carriers, apply any common provisions and where provisions differ the published baggage provisions of the "Most Significant Carrier" (MSC). In case this is a code share flight, apply the provision of the marketing carrier unless that carrier publishes a rule stipulating that it will be the operating carrier.
- If MSC does not publish its provision, apply the rule of the Check-in carrier
- If the Check-in carrier does not publish its provision, apply Operating carriers' provisions sector-by-sector.
Most Significant Carrier (MSC) is:
- For travel between two or more Tariff Conference areas, the carrier performing carriage on the first sector that crosses from one area to another. Exception: TC 123 only, the carrier providing carriage on the first sector that crosses between TC1 and TC2. TC123 exception e.g. Checked portion: Narita-{BR}-Taipei (non-stopover)-{BR}-Heathrow (non-stopover)-{ZZ}-Mexico. If published carrier baggage provisions differ, use provisions of MSC (Carrier ZZ) that is the transatlantic carrier from TC2 to TC1.
- For travel between Tariff Conference sub-areas, the carrier performing carriage on the first sector that crosses from one sub-area to another.
- For travel within a tariff Conference sub-area, the carrier performing carriage on the first international sector.
Certain examples :
- Example 1: Taipei-{BR}-Bangkok(stopover)-{XX}-Frankfurt(non-stopover)-{YY}-Copenhagen
- In this example, the journey is broken up by a stopover in Bangkok. Therefore, there are two sectors and each sector has a Most Significant Operating Carrier. From Taipei to Bangkok, EVA Air is the Most Significant Operating Carrier and the baggage policies of EVA Air will apply to this sector. From Bangkok to Frankfurt, Carrier XX is the Most Significant Operating Carrier as it operates the geographically-longer stretch from Bangkok to Frankfurt. The baggage policy of Carrier XX will apply to the entire sector from Bangkok to Copenhagen.
- Example 2: Sydney-{BB}-Brisbane(non-stopover)-{CC}-Taipei((non-stopover)-{BR}-Heathrow
- In this example, there is one Most Significant Operating Carrier because there are no stopovers in the journey. EVA Air is the Most Significant Operating Carrier as it is operating the geographically longer stretch from Taipei to London. Therefore, the baggage policies of EVA Air will apply from Sydney to London.
According to the section 399.87 requirements by U.S. Department of Transportation (US DOT), for passengers whose ultimate ticketed origin or destination is a U.S. point, U.S. and foreign carriers must apply the baggage allowances and fees at the beginning of a passenger's itinerary throughout his or her entire journey. For example, if a passenger's itinerary is Houston-Los Angeles-Taipei, United Airlines flight from Houston to Los Angeles and connecting EVA Air flight from Los Angeles to Taipei, then United Airlines' baggage policy should be followed, including the return itinerary Taipei -Los Angeles- Houston.
In the case of code-share flights that form part of an itinerary whose ultimate ticketed origin or destination is a U.S. point, U.S. and foreign carriers must apply the baggage allowances and fees of the marketing carrier throughout the itinerary to the extent that they differ from those of any operating carrier. For example, if a passenger's itinerary is Houston-Los Angeles-Taipei, the 1st marketing carrier is EVA Air from Houston to Los Angeles and connecting EVA Air flight from Los Angeles to Taipei, then EVA Air's baggage policy should be followed, including the return itinerary Taipei -Los Angeles- Houston.
So if passengers whose ultimate ticketed origin or final destination is a U.S. point, the free baggage allowance for the complete itinerary shall apply the exceptional rules governed by US DOT and determined by the first marketing carrier. The first marketing carrier has the option to use the MSC methodology to determine which carrier's baggage allowance and fees to apply.
Effective 1 April 2015, the Canadian Transportation Agency defined international journeys to/from Canada to include journeys where travel contains more than one country and the journey origin, destination or farthest checked point is within Canada. It follows closely the same principles as what has been laid out by the US DOT. The Agency's Decision is consistent with the United States Department of Transportation's (U.S. DOT) baggage rules requirements, thereby providing for a harmonized North American approach to how baggage rules should be applied. Moreover, it can prevent passengers from facing different baggage policy and baggage fees which created confusion and complaint often during entire journey.
When determining whose rules apply, use the rules of the first marketing carrier on the journey provided the first marketing carrier is specified in the list of CTA carriers filing general rules tariffs to/from Canada. You may contact your travel agent, check our interline partner's website or contact EVA AIR ticketing offices for details.
When a passenger holding separate tickets during travel
According to IATA's regulation, it is not necessary for airlines to provide baggage through check-in service to a passenger's final destination when he/she is holding separate tickets. If there are 2 separate tickets, then there are 2 separate contracts of carriage. There are airlines announced that they will not provide baggage through check-in service for separate tickets. EVA AIR will tag your baggage to the destination of the EVA Air ticket(s) ONLY. When you arrive at the airport, please claim your baggage and go to next carrier's check-in counter for recheck-in. Thank you for your understanding.
For passengers who hold separate tickets (one is by piece concept and the other is by weight concept), the baggage allowance as ticket shown should be applied separately.
Baggage rules for EVA AIR's codeshare partners:
EVA Air codeshare flights operated by other airlines may have different baggage rules with EVA Air's. For details, please visit the operating carrier's website. (All links below are open in new window)

Wine consumers in New York should be aware of what is happening in Albany right now that could greatly affect the cost and choices of the wines they can drink. The legislation is called 'At-Rest' and it means that wine needs to be warehoused in New York state at least one day prior to sale to restaurants and retailers. The problem is that all mid- and small-size distributors warehouse their wine in New Jersey, which is closer to the port where wine arrives from abroad. Only the two largest distributors, Southern and Empire warehouse in state, and so no surprise, they are the ones pushing hard for this bill. In fact, they have collectively donated more than $500,000 to Governor Cuomo and Senator Jeff Klein (and a few others up north) to get this nonsense passed. Why? Because they want to crush the competition, and they will do so by any means in order to increase their own profits.
This is a bill that solves nothing but could be detrimental to many. Not only will many of the smaller guys potentially go out of business (my company included), but consumers can expect far fewer choices at much higher prices, as much as $7 a bottle! It has all the makings of a fairy tale, in which a big bad wolf with sharp fangs preys on innocent grandmothers, but it is indeed a very real threat.
So what can you do to bring about a happier ending? Go to Stop the Cork Tax and tell Albany to put 'At-Rest' to rest, for good.

Tech 2 Torpedo Launchers are stationary naval defense structures. They are built in water, and will fire at any enemy naval vessel or non-hovering amphibious unit that comes within range.
Use Edit
These units are basically a bigger, tougher version of the Tech 1 torpedo launchers, and should be used accordingly. The tech 2 torpedo launcher is usually outranged by tech 2 destroyers and cruisers. However, if a destroyer or cruiser comes into range, they will be very quickly destroyed. Tech 1 and Tech 2 Submarines cannot out-range the tech 2 torpedo launcher, and will be utterly destroyed should they try to attack it. Only the Seraphim tech 3 sub hunter and UEF experimental Aircraft Carrier/Submarine can outrange the tech 2 torpedo launchers.
Factional differences Edit
The four Tech 2 Torpedo Launchers are the UEF Tsunami, the Cybran Nanite Torpedo Array, the Aeon Wave Break and the Seraphim Uosthu. These all cost the same, but their overall effectiveness differs. The UEF Tsunami and the Aeon Wave Break are equivalent. The Seraphim Uosthu has less health, but makes up for it with an effective anti-torpedo system. Finally, the Cybran Nanite Torpedo Array is substantially more effective than all other tech 2 torpedo launchers, at 188 DPS to the others' 150. While this was changed in Forged Alliance, the Cybran Nanite Torpedo Array was defined as a tech 2 heavy torpedo launcher, to stress its overall superiority.

Maine launches teen driving program
Teens will be required to drive with parental supervision
Maine's secretary of state has launched a new program to help teenagers and their parents at what can be a stressful time: when kids are learning to drive.
Secretary of State Mathew Dunlap says The Parent's Supervised Driving Program aims to optimize the 35 hours of supervised driving teens are required to complete under parental supervision before receiving a license.
The program features a booklet with driving lessons parents can teach their children while they're going through the supervised training period.
The program recommends that parents and teens practice specific skills in a methodical manner and to drive in a variety of weather conditions and unfamiliar settings so the teens are prepared for the responsibility that comes with driving.
Information on the program can be found at www.theparentssuperviseddrivingprogram.com .

Zwiebelkorn strip from Der Tarantel 48 (September 1954)
It was the signature of Vau that appeared on many covers and interior cartoons of Der Tarantel. This "satirical monthly magazine for the Soviet zone" was produced in West-Berlin and distributed illegally over the eastern border between 1950 and 1962. In the DDR, possession and distribution of Der Tarantel could lead to arrest by the Stasi because of its magazine's satirical yet primitive anti-communist content.
It is probably therefore that all the contributors hid behind pseudonyms. Chief editor and publisher Heinrich Bär was actually called Heinz Wenzel and the contributing cartoonists resorted to unrevealing signatures like Vau, Fax, Hui, Zwick and Tunitz. Vau was, in addition to many cartoons, also responsible for the 'Zwiebelkorn' comic strip.

Awarding Science Defense
A psychiatrist and a science writer win the first John Maddox Prize for promoting science despite opposition.
Beth Marie Mole
Nov 8, 2012
Flickr, SnapThe truth-seeking Chinese science writer, Shi-min Fang, and British chronic fatigue syndrome researcher Simon Wessely this week (November 6) became the inaugural recipients of the John Maddox Prize, which honors individuals who promote science in the face of adversity, in honor of the former Nature editor who championed robust science.
Fang, a biochemist by training, turned into a scientific watchdog, exposing fraudulent research on his website New Threads. In 2010, he was physically attacked for challenging the efficacy of a urologist's surgical procedures. In the award announcement, Nature lauded Fang's work because it "imposes transparency on an opaque system. He has opened a forum for criticism and debate in a community that is otherwise devoid of it."
Wessely, a researcher at the Institute of Psychiatry of King's College London, studies the link between chronic fatigue syndrome and clinical depression, developing successful cognitive-behavioral treatments. But despite his advances, a vocal minority of the chronic fatigue syndrome community was outraged by his emphasis on neurophysiological aspects of the disease, rather than the physical symptoms. "All along the way, Wessely has had to suffer continued abuse and obstruction from a powerful minority of people who, under the guise of self-help organizations, have sought to promote an extreme and narrow version of the disorder," the anonymous individual who nominated Wessely told Nature. Wessely received hate mail and death threats for more than 2 decades, but continued his research despite the risk.
The prizes, sponsored by Nature and the Kohn Foundation, and are organized by the London-based charity, Sense About Science, award $3,200 to each recipient.

When it comes to celebrity feuds, you don't find many as bizarre as this one.
In one corner: "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" actress Marg Helgenberg. A 52 year-old industry veteran with movies like "Bad Boys," "Erin Brockovich," and "Species" on her resume.
In the other: Seventeen year-old Canadian moppet Justin Bieber, who has ridden his singing chops and hairstyle to guest appearances on TV and movies. And a 3-D IMAX documentary about his life.
U.S. & World
In a recent radio interview, Helgenberger called Bieber a "brat," referencing the singer's guest starring role a couple of episodes of "CSI."
Well, now Bieber is firing back (via Twitter, of course).
"Its kinda lame when someone you met briefly and never worked with comments on you. I will continue to wish them luck and be kind," he wrote.
He continued: ""I know who I am and sometimes people r just going 2 say what they want. Keep ur head up and be the man ur mama raised." He's abbreviating words, so you know he's upset.
So far, there has been no further comment from Helgenberger.

Safe Harbor Agreements
Photo by Rick Kuyper, USFWS
The Safe Harbor Policy provides incentives for property owners to restore, enhance and maintain habitats for listed species.
Because many endangered and threatened species occur exclusively, or to a large extent, on non-Federally owned property, the involvement of non-Federal property owners in the conservation and recovery of listed species is critical to the eventual success of these efforts.
Under the policy, the Services will provide participating property owners with technical assistance to develop Safe Harbor Agreements that manage habitat for listed species, and provide assurances that additional land, water, and/or natural resource use restrictions will not be imposed as a result of their voluntary conservation actions to benefit covered species.
When the property owner meets all the terms of the Agreement, the Services will authorize incidental taking of the covered species at a level that enables the property owner ultimately to return the enrolled property back to agreed upon baseline conditions.
Pacific Gas and Electric Company Tulare Hill Safe Harbor Agreement
Photo by Rick Kuyper, USFWS
In 2008, PG&E and the Service completed a safe harbor agreement for serpentine endemic species on Tulare Hill in Santa Clara County.
PG&E has been restoring and maintaining habitat for the Bay checkerspot butterfly, Metcalf Canyon jewelflower and Santa Clara Valley dudleya.Restoration will mainly involve controlling invasive non-native grasses with managed grazing.
In addition, the agreement assures PG&E that the Service will not impose additional restrictions because of their voluntary conservation actions.

The National Weather Service is predicting gusts of up to 60 miles per hour in parts of Washington state tonight, including San Juan County, western Whatcom County, western Skagit County and the Admiralty Inlet area.
The day after windstorms, we often get a wave of calls from people with toppled trees, debris-damaged cars, etc.
To help, we put together this list of typical questions, including:
Am I covered if my car was damaged by falling tree limbs?
My yard is covered with branches and debris. Will my insurer pay the cleanup costs?
My boat sank from strong winds. Am I covered?
My business' awning was damaged by the wind. Can I file a claim?
Be careful out there.

Helen Finkelstein Reeve, "Bunny"
October 15, 1923 - January 12, 2012
At 20, in 1943
My cousin Anne Finkelstein reading her thoughts at the wake, while cousin Alice Chico listens
To the Piffle list, Friday:
At the wake: David, Tom, Joanna, Anne
Paul and I landed in Newark, a mere $80 cab ride into the city but we were tired. Ensconced at our beloved b & b, the Larchmont, which gave us the fourth night free as it's out of season. Then we headed directly to my cousin Anne's house, to meet with the Cut Rate Funeral Director. The Hebrew Home had given us a list of places that charged $5000 - $8000 for a funeral, and I was absolutely, fiercely determined not to pay anything in that range. My mother did pay some funeral expense when she went into the Home, but it seems nobody can find a trace of it or what it was for (we're going up there to look into that today, and to pick up her pictures and books). She has a seat in the family plot, so that's good. I decided against having a service in a chapel in the city, which is what costs in the thousands; we'll do a brief graveside thing with my rabbi cousin presiding. I would have skipped it but my mother would not have liked that, and I want to strike the exact right balance between being respectful of my mother's Judaism and true to my own atheism and determination to be economical (which she would have appreciated). When I was informed of the death I did say the Shema in accord with childhood training, which I thought was quite remarkable of me to remember.
Alice and me at the wake
Bottom line cost is $1200, but a plain coffin, necessary in Jewish burials, is another $1000 (though the funeral director said he could do it at $500 "for me." (I'll take it up with my rabbi cousin; the standard one included in the $1200 is plain wood but has a little metal trim. Am I seriously obligated to pay $500 real live dollars to get rid of the trim? Come on.) Refused to pay various expenses like ritual washings and viewings and fancy hearses and Chief Mourner candles and other fal-lals which were thankfully optional. Limousine to the cemetery far out of the city is $350, but unavoidable. There are seven of us in the party (my two cousins Anne and David, their spouses Jim and Tom, Anne's 14-year-old daughter Joanna with her charming red metallic hair and boots, and me and Paul), and after all we can't be going on the subway.
David, Tom and Anne
But the $2100 won't be all. Oh no, not by a long shot. Today we'll find out the rest. There is Opening the Grave, which may rack up another $1000 or more, and who knows what other surprises lurk in wait. Hopefully we may find that some of it's covered by what my mother paid in advance. ($1500 I think.) The funeral will be on Sunday, but Saturday night a gathering of relatives will come to Anne's apartment in the city, and that will be the real deal, hopefully rather jolly and wake-like.
Joanna and cat, Anne and Paul
To Peter, Friday night:
Paul and I were so tired after our trip we slept in till nearly noon today, and then didn't have much time to get up to the Hebrew Home. Luckily, around the corner from the Larchmont is a branch of Murray's Sturgeon Shop, so I got an onion bagel with nova and Paul a bialy with whitefish. Took the train uptown to the Home. It looked beautiful on the Hudson, as we saw it for the last time. Things went expeditiously. Saw a Housekeeping man who ushered us into a little Bereaved Room where we sat and ate our bagels and lox while he brought in the five bins of my mother's things. She had a suitcase and carry bag so we could use them to take what we wanted. Most of it was clothes, which we donated. We just gathered up the books and pictures and put them in the carry bag. Then stopped in the financial office, where we were told she had $162 in her account which would be sent to the administrator. She had $3 in her wallet so that was our legacy and we'll toast her with a cappuccino. It seems possible that the $1500 she paid for burial she paid to the cemetery itself, so we may not owe them anything. Hope not.
My cousin Judy, with her grandson Haskell, daughter Leah, and Joanna
It was around 5 when we left the home, toting the books and things, and we took the express bus down to 34th and Lex, and a cab partway to [Peter's] parents. It got stuck behind an oil truck so we walked from Lexington. Only had half an hour to see Rut and Vivian but it was nice and we told them all our adventures and showed them my new iPad. We'll go see them tomorrow for breakfast. Then we went to Anne's and enjoyed the evening with them, having Indian takeout food and enjoying Joanna and the cats. I painted my nails sparkly purple with her nail polish. Then we took the bags back to the Larchmont, and sallied out for a walk in the Village. Quite cold, and my knee was hurting, but the walk was nice and we went to Caffe Dante for lovely tea and sublime profiteroles. That place opened in 1915 and is the real thing. Then back to the room and internet. Tomorrow is the wake at Anne's - Alice is coming down from Syracuse and Judy is coming with her family, so it will be really nice.
To the Dove Grey Books list, Friday:
Didn't bring anything to read - had to finish my work on the plane, after which I get a week's bereavement time off. When I've had a moment, have just been doing email. Lots of very kind messages, though I didn't have a normal relationship with my mother, and it's not the same sort of loss as most people have under the circumstances. However it is certainly an epochal sort of feeling. One of my cousins wrote "may you have a smooth transition to the older generation," which made me go "ugh," but I guess it's true! Anyway I put on some of my teenage cousin Joanna's sparkly purple fingernail polish...
To the Piffle list, Monday
Oh, dear no, Helen. I'm thankful to report that it wasn't like that at all. This turned out to be the most absolutely beautiful funeral and weekend wake that anybody ever had, and it all ran like such smooth clockwork every single moment, that my mother could have paid and organized it decades ago and it couldn't have been better (and remember she was mentally ill and always struggling to survive, so pre-paying burial was probably the last thing on her mind at any given time. Actually, she did pre-pay $1500 in a burial account at the Hebrew Home, but it turns out she spent it over the years ;-)
About my whole time in New York, there was a remarkable sense of peace and closure. The seven of us (me, Paul, Anne, David, Joanna, Jim and Tom) spent more time together than we ever have before, and I think I can speak for all of us when I say that we felt quite magically like a united family, a family of one mind (and it must be said, it felt pretty strange for me to now be the senior member!). We made a get-together at Anne's house, to which the Koppelman cousins, Judy (Celia's daughter), and Alice (Esther's daughter), their children and grandchildren came. It was a beautiful time, just as it should be, the older ones telling the younger ones about people and events of the past, and how they combined together to make the people who were here now. Everyone shared memories about my mother, and reflected on her difficult life and her serene end. Honestly, even though I keep denying religion for myself, I have to acknowledge that there was incontrovertably some divine plan about what happened to her in her last ten years. There can be no other explanation for how she was granted such grace and peace at the end of her life, which included, best of all, her reuniting with me.
Paul and I flew home to Los Angeles last night (long delays, 14 hours of travel, we got in exhausted at 3 AM!) but hope to get together with you again next time we are in New York, probably in October, when I'll be there for a talk.
A joyous reunion with Peter and the cats. Little Tully quivered with joy at the sight of her beloved Paul; Marshy was so excited she ran wildly around the house, hitting the walls; and Pindar firmly stalked to my bed, planted herself in the center, and slept with me all night.

(CMT Offstage keeps a 24/7 watch on everything that's happening with country music artists behind the scenes and out of the spotlight.)
At Monday night's (June 3) Rolling Stones concert in Chicago, one song stood out to everyone in the audience who leans a little country. Mick Jagger brought Taylor Swift onstage to duet on the band's 1965 hit "As Tears Go By." It was reportedly a stripped-down take on the almost 50-year-old song. Had this been a CMT Crossroads , it would have been cool to hear Jagger do some of Swift's biggest hits. Songs like "Picture to Burn," "22" and "Should've Said No" come to mind. If Swift and the Stones ever collaborate again, what would be on your wish list set list?

A black paracord Sporran? To go with my 5.11 Kilt?The Professor
Corey,i have done a number of different paracord projects including the usual bracelets, keychains, zipper pulls etc... i have also done paracord dog leashes and collars for my pups. if you are looking for challenging and interesting projects check out stormdranes blog at http://stormdrane.blogspot.com/ tons of cool ideas there. i have been toying with the idea of using paracord instead of yarn to crochet small nets or gear hangers. just a thought. good luck
That actually sounds pretty challenging, I am thinking of taking up crocheting after reading a post by Sister Wolf on another post.I'll keep that one in mind.. . .snip. . .Thanks for the ideas!
Well, I was actually thinking of something like I saw on Stormdrane's Blog : He used "alternating square knots" to do the one above. The Professor
I have this fold up camp chair that is falling apart because I left it in the sun and rain too long, I'm going to use the frame and remake the chair with paracord.
I'd love to see plans or a photo of that! I can't count how many camp chairs we have tossed into campfires when they rip and go bad. Since they are so cheap (I don't think I've ever paid more than $5 for one) nobody cares, but I would assume a paracord chair would last forever compared to the fabric they use. I have 2 chairs I left in my yard all summer because they are about 10 years old and about to die and I just didn't care anymore — but they are still kicking. I may actually bring them inside for the winter but I have 2 frames to work with once they finally rip!
It's a 1-liter flat canteen. You sometimes see these in pilot's survival kits: You can get them from County Comm: http://www.countycomm.com/2lcanteen.htmlThe Professor
Does anyone know a good store to pick up perma-lok needles? I could search, but I'm already talking to all of you.
I plan on attempting a few slings for various rifles any one know of any patterns i found one on instructables or whatever that site is. Dont want to buy ebay 30$ ones. If my first turns out good i might make some more. I made a cool bracelet about a year ago single strand about 14 feet unwound plan on making some more of various colors thanks youtube for easy to follow vids
I would probably go with a double wide cobra, little easier than weaving.

Hi there, so here's the deal. First off let me start by telling you why:
Basically it's a game security feature, to prevent cheating.
Anywhere here's the deal, I've been given the task of making a function to find all injected and loaded DLL's in a specific process at run time. Here's an example: They launch the game, this program will dump the target game's memory into a buffer or a file or something, and try and find all the DLL's loaded in that game's memory/process/address space.
I'm just wondering what an efficient way to do this would be. I'm uncertain how to find all DLL's loaded in a certain process's address space, or how I could really access this memory to begin with. I'm not asking to be spoon fed here (unless you really feel like it haha) I would just like to have some suggestions on how I can accomplish this task, and what I will need to know/be able to do.
I've done a bit of googling and I found a method commonly used to 'hide' these DLLs from injection detection techniques, here's the link/source code:
Found at: http://www.battleforums.com/forums/d...akdll-cpp.html
Source code: http://www.privatepaste.com/b31hpsgNJt
I'm also aware that I may be able to use notification hooks to monitor access of OpenGL.dll or the Direct 3D DLL, but I'm uncertain if this will be an affective method to counter the 'hide' code used, or even if it's an affective method overall.
Thanks a lot!

The 2010 World Cup final referee and England's representative for Brazil 2014 awarded Liverpool a spot-kick in the second half but six minutes later did not give another when Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain tripped Luis Suarez.
Had the penalty been awarded and converted, Liverpool would have had the momentum at 2-2, but instead they exited the FA Cup after a 2-1 loss to the Gunners.
Former Premier League official Mark Halsey has advised Webb to give his full attentions to refereeing, rather than allow opportunities that come with his high profile to add to his workload.
Halsey told talkSPORT: "Howard has made an error of judgement
He has not had the best of seasons
He has not been the Howard Webb we all know.
"Perhaps he may need a little rest because he is perhaps doing too much.
"He is not just refereeing football matches, he is doing a lot of work outside of football
He is doing a lot of after-dinner speaking
Everyone wants Howard Webb because he was the World Cup (final) referee (in 2010).
"He has to take a good look at himself in the mirror and ask himself what he wants
This (refereeing) is his full-time job and he has got to concentrate on this.
"He has to forget about what he is doing outside of football
He has got to put that on the back-burner and concentrate on what he is being paid for full-time."

February 19, 2013 - CGTech, the developer of VERICUT software, is proud to celebrate a quarter-century of leading the development of numerical control (NC) program simulation and analysis software. Flourishing through an era when software companies came and went, CGTech has achieved twenty-five years of innovation and steady growth.
CGTech began when Jon Prun, the company's founder and president, recognized a need to verify NC tool path programs without wasting valuable CNC machining time on a prove-out part. CGTech then created VERICUT® software: the world's first widely available, productive method to test NC machine tool paths, without using a machine tool. VERICUT revolutionized NC program verification by simulating material removal using a three-dimensional solid model.
"We wouldn't be in a position to celebrate 25 years of business without the loyal support of all those who use VERICUT," said Prun. "VERICUT development is driven by our customers' needs, and we always welcome feedback from users and partners. It is the reason we host nearly 40 VERICUT user group meetings each year."
Since its initial release, VERICUT has been constantly enhanced in-house by a large team of CGTech software engineers who have many years of experience in the mechanical CAD/CAM industry. In addition to regular enhancements to its core algorithms, products have been added to optimize feed rates and simulate the kinematics of complex multi-axis and multi-spindle CNC machine tools. CGTech has also recently released new products for companies utilizing automated composite machinery, and drilling and fastening machines.
CGTech has experienced remarkable growth in recent years, and its customer list consists of thousands of companies in virtually every manufacturing industry, including every major aerospace and automotive company. Wholly-owned subsidiary companies have been founded in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, China, Singapore, India, and Brazil to support customers, resellers and partners worldwide.

This code is an exact duplication of code that a friend of mine wrote that works without a hitch, so I don't get this.package filez; import java.io.*; public class Filez{ public static void main(String[] args){ File f = new File("test.txt"); try( FileWriter fw = new FileWriter(f); fw.write("write this to file"); //Keeps saying identifier expected???? fw.close();}catch(Exception ex){} }// This is the final closing bracket, but it is saying I reached end of file while parsing????
What is wrong with the line, fw.write("write this to file");??
I mean I declared fw in the previous line, FileWriter fw = new FileWriter(f);, so I don't see the issue here????
Can someone PLEASE tell me what is happening here????

Video: China Gets the iPad
Apple has been slower than competitors in establishing retail channels in China and in bringing its hottest products to the world's most exciting market. But with the launch of its iPad tablet computer in China today, the company may finally be upping its China game.
The iPad went on sale at 8 a.m. at the Apple Store in Beijing and was also being offered at the Apple Store in Shanghai, as well as through the company's authorized resellers. In the capital, a small crowd lined up outside the Apple Store in a steady rain to buy iPads.
"I came at 6:30," said one of the buyers walking out of the store, as Apple employees applauded his purchase loudly. He had been the 95th person in line. "I saw two days ago that Apple would be selling the iPad here, so I decided to buy one." Asked why he didn't buy an iPad earlier on the gray market—those brought into China from overseas without Apple's authorization—he said "you can't be sure about the quality of those iPads."
Lu Xuefeng, a seller of gray-market iPads, was also in line. His store in Beijing has been selling iPads for months. "We sell more than ten iPads per day," he said. "The 3G ones are more popular," he added, referring to the iPad with wireless capabilities, which Apple isn't yet selling in China (the ones on sale Friday have only Wi-Fi). A 64-gigabyte 3G iPad sells for 6,800 yuan at his store, or about $1000.
Wi-Fi iPads in the Beijing Apple Store were being sold for 5,588 yuan ($826) for the 64-gigabyte model, and 3,988 yuan ($590), for the 16-gigabyte model. Wi-Fi iPads on the gray market go for about $680 to $880.
Nearly every person leaving the store Friday was holding an Apple purchase, and the second floor of the store was buzzing with new iPad owners learning how to use their devices, unlike the iPhone launch at the store last year when many people were just browsing.
Apple limited each customer to two iPads.
Another big difference with the iPhone launch: today's kick-off in China comes a mere five months after the iPad was launched in the U.S. By comparison, Apple didn't start selling the iPhone in China—the world's biggest mobile phone market--until last October, even though it was released in the U.S. in 2007. (Apple still hasn't announced plans for China for the iPhone 4, which went on sale in the U.S. in June—though there are signs it may arrive in China soon.)
Shaun Rein, managing director of China Market Research Group, says the iPad could give Apple a boost. "I see the iPad as a major win for Apple in China," he said. "There's not much competition in the market" and consumers say "they can't wait for it."
Though there is significant interest in Apple products in China, the company's release of the iPhone has been lackluster compared to its release in other markets, in part because it took so long to officially launch the device here. In the more than two years between the U.S. iPhone launch its official launch in China, the gray market for iPhones—including millions of iPhones that were hacked and packaged with pirated software—became well-established.
In that time, several high-profile devices running on Google's Android were also launched, presenting a more competitive environment for Apple when it finally released the iPhone in China. Though there are plenty of iPad wannabes in Chinese electronic markets—ranging from Chinese tablet computers running Microsoft's Windows to fake iPads running Android—Apple's major competitors are still racing to launch comparable products.
Apple launched the iPad in China "fairly quickly after launching it globally. It's not like people have had years to go and jailbreak them," Rein said.
In addition the iPad, with its large screen, isn't a device that users will necessarily want to run low-quality pirated software on, which could be a boon for Apple's China App Store.
Apple has declined to say when the company will release 3G versions of the iPad in China.

Currently there are no setup, still figuring out and doing our homework before buying the kit which suits our needs.
5 people in the flat and most of them are heavy users.
So need a setup which will provide decent speeds upstairs as well.
Big chunk of usage will be coming from p2p and usenet servers, we already have our ISP sorted with a big data plan.
Could you please help me decide on which way to go?
1. Ubiquiti AirRouter.
Believe it can run OpenWRT but the Ubiquiti firmware I think is solid enough
802.11n so nice and fast
$83 from Go Wireless
But not sure if the firmware is upgradeable and able to run custom third party stuff such as dd wrt.
2. Was recommended WRT54GL flashed with Tomato or DD-WRT but seems a little old school and did a bit of digging around and came with option 3
3. Asus N16u with 3 removable antennas but $200. The Ubiquiti doesn't have removable antennas but says it is commercial standard and the in built one is pretty much the bomb and the ubiquiti is about $85 which is a lot cheaper.
Things going for Asu RT-N16 with Toastman's Tomato firmware - Print, file and media server, gigabit, wireless N, grunty as specs so will never fall over under heavy load. Apparently if you have QoS setup, browsing never slows down if someone else downloading, and it meters the amount of traffic every PC on the network uses <<<<----IS THIS POSSIBLE? without having to install third party software on each and every devices accessing the network??
Downside: Not sure if Ubiquiti air router can do everything this one does for less than half the price.
4. Just buy a decent cheap adsl2+ wifi n modem router and either replace the antennas with high power ones or use repeaters? - I'm not sure which repeaters to go for if this option wins.
Now the main purpose of the setup is to have full speed ADSL2+ downloads, I do understand I wouldn't need a very expensive set up for this to happen, but the reason why I'm on here is because the modem/router will have to be set up in the lounge downstairs and 3 out of 5 people are living upstairs and I fear the signal could drop a lot.
I am not planning to run hard drives and use it over wifi a lot. All I want to do is get full download speeds of ADSL2 all day considering few of us could also be downloading.
You are most welcome to disregard all of the above given options and suggest new ones.
In a nutshell - things looking to achieve
-Set up which allows full ADSL2 download speeds upstairs, only 2 or 3 people will be downloading at same time but they happened to be upstairs so would like to have least droppings in speed.
-Able to monitor each device data usage - qOs apparently does this, could someone chip in?
-Hardware which supports p2p, usenet and doesn't require to turn off and on every few hours!! (dynalink on slingshot)
- Also please suggest a modem or modem router which does all this. If you think about it.

Beach Bliss
Michigan has so many fantastic beaches but one of my favorites is Chapel beach in the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. This beach has great sand, stones perfect for skipping, cliff edges, a beach waterfall that you can walk through and just when you think that's enough it has a very cool rock formation that has a beautiful tree on it whos roots traverse air to get to the shore to survive. It is a pretty special place. Oh and you can only get there via boat or a long hike.
Marsh Gold
Wagner Falls in Munising, Michigan is already a beautiful waterfall but when you add Marsh Marigolds it doesn't get any prettier.
The Light Switch Over
As one light sets the other takes over. Little Sable Lighthouse is becoming one of my favorite lighthouses. It was so peaceful to sit and enjoy the sunset as the clouds got painted with brilliant colors.
Little Sable Point Lighthouse, Mears, Michigan
Early Gales
While Lake Superior was breaking wave height records Lake Michigan was angry as well. Manistee Lighthouse got slammed by waves on a late October afternoon.
Superior Bliss
This sunset changed into so many different colors while it was setting, it was awesome! Every person that walked up said "WOW!" Sunset at Presque Isle Park in Marquette, Michigan.
Sunkissed Escarpment
This is "Lake Of The Clouds" in the Porcupine Mountain Wilderness State Park in Ontonagon, Michigan. I showed up in the pitch dark, having never been there before, only hoping I was going in the right direction and hoping to not fall off a cliff, I also did not know if the fall colors were truly peak or not. As the first light came over the mountain I knew I was where I needed to be, the sunrise illuminated the perfect fall peak colors I was hoping for and as a bonus the sunrise placed its beautiful rays across the escarpment; such a beautiful place.
Beauty On The Edge
Blooming on the edge of an almost 200 foot cliff over Lake Superior, these Bunchberry (creeping dogwood) plants have quite the view.
Mighty Blue
As many of you know I like to photograph the Mackinac Bridge and after I heard about the blue ice at the bridge I was curious. Was it really that blue? Was it as big as everyone was saying it was. How big of a deal was it really? Well the curiosity got to me and I had to check it out. I will have to say YES the ice is that blue and WOW it is something you must see in person. While looking at massive ice chunks that in some places were 24 inches thick you can't help but think how much force it would have taken to move this much ice. While I answered a lot of my questions while there. Yes, it's that blue, yes it is massive, and yes it's a big deal (as it doesn't happen too often). I actually left with more questions. How long did it take to pile up, was it overnight or over a few days? What did it sound like? It had to have been so loud. How long will it stay? Will the ice come up any further?
This was one of the best sunset afterglows I have seen and what better place to experience it than at the frozen St. Joseph Lighthouse in St. Joseph, Michigan. It didn't matter which way you looked, the colors were everywhere.
Aurora At Dusk
Early Aurora Borealis at dusk in Marquette, Michigan at Marquette's Presque Isle Park, complete with a shooting star.
Far Far Away
Badwater Basin is a salt flat in Death Valley National Park, California, it is also the lowest point in North America, this photo is from March 2016.
The Protector
Since 1935 this unique lighthouse; Grays Reef, has protected ships from a shallow reef. This lighthouse stands 65 feet tall in the northern part of Lake Michigan. I loved that the golden sunset lit up the side of the lighthouse with its beautiful rays.
Standing Guard
Miners Castle stands guard as the sun dipped past the horizon on a late spring night.
First Light
Sunrises like these almost make me rethink not being a morning person, well, almost. I arrived in the dark to make sure I would be there for the first light. I snapped this shot just as the sun was starting to come up. The sun was being muted by some thin clouds near the horizon but I loved the way the muted light hit the rocks in the foreground. It really shows to the mood of the morning with the waves crashing on the unique rocks.
Peaceful Morning
Peaceful autumn morning on Lake Powell in the Hiawatha National Forest, south of Munising, Michigan.
Cozy Cove
The sunset was looking favorable so I headed to a place I had never been before; Presque Isle Park in Marquette, Michigan. I went a few hours before sunset to see what the park had to offer. I was very impressed with the park, it had woods, cliffs, little coves and rocky shores. A perfect place for enjoying an afternoon/evening. I found this little cove that was ideal for the sunset and just waited. It was so nice to just sit there and watch the waves crash on the rocks. As the sun started to set it took on many different colors. It was a "wow" of a sunset, one of those not so common ones, one that you walk away with a large smile.
Aurora Hide & Seek
The aurora borealis hid behind some clouds during an almost full moon at Miners Castle in Munising, Michigan on October 13th 2016 about 8:30pm.
Gullfoss Glow
Gullfoss is one of Iceland's most popular tourist attractions. As you can tell from the few people that are in the photograph, this waterfall is unique and massive. This photograph was taken as the sun was "setting" during the midnight sun.
A Morning At Eben Ice Caves
A beautiful morning at Eben Ice Caves just north of Eben Junction, Michigan. Late Winter 2017.
Peaceful Walk
The beautiful Gulf of Mexico beach sunset in Seacrest, Florida in April of 2015
Where The Plates Meet
Oxararfoss is a waterfall in western Iceland located in the Thingvellir National Park. Thingvellir National Park is where the Eurasian and North-American tectonic plates meet. This was hours before sunset during the summer.
Too Pretty For Words
Blooming crabapple trees in front of the DeZwaan Windmill at the Windmill Island Gardens in Holland, Michigan. 2017
When I first saw picture of this lighthouse I just had to go see it for myself and you can see why. White Shoal Lighthouse was 1st lit in 1910 and stands 121 feet tall. It also proudly carries the role of the only barber pole (red/white) lighthouse in the US. I couldn't help but snap as many shots as I could of this unique lighthouse during an awesome sunset.

Hi there, I am interested in your opinions on the ease of obtaining work in Tainan, given that I have very little experience teaching english, and am turning up when all the main schools have hired for the beginning of the March semester. I am heading over to Taiwan end of Feb, to be based in Tainan, as my partner has a 2 year contract (not teaching). Our last contract was in Thailand so we are used to living in Asia. I meet all the govt requirements, (have the degree etc), and although I have undertaken considerable teaching/tutoring work in science and maths type subjects, have only a small amount of experience teaching english in a volunteer program in New Zealand for refugees. My concern is that I can only get a 60 day visa from NZ and will I be able to find decent legal work in this time? I have read some of these discussion topics and it seems that work is beginning to dry up somewhat, especially for those of us who are only just starting out in this career path. Also will it be harder to find work as I would rather work in a (lower paid?) well run legal school, than have some of the hassles I have read about with schools with high turnovers - my partner's company supplies accomodation so my costs are not as high, and the last thing I want is to be deported when he has most of his contract remaining. Thanks for taking the time to give me some advice Back to top stgeorgeJoined: 17 Jan 2003Posts: 26 Posted: Sat Feb 08, 2003 6:36 am Post subject: Your talk of "semesters" suggests you want a job in a public school, which is a definite no-no for you because the Taiwanese government is recruiting "real" English teachers from abroad at the moment.

Book your Train ticket to Luxembourg
The railroad network in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg covers about 250 kilometres, operated by CFL, the Luxembourg National Railways.
The national railway company of Luxembourg is known as the Société Nationale des Chemins de Fer Luxembourgeois (CFL). Luxembourg has a small network made of 275 km of railway tracks. Train tickets for trains operating in Luxembourg can be booked in advance. International trains connect Luxembourg with neighbouring countries such as France and Belgium. Book train tickets to visit the city of Luxembourg.
Stroll past Luxembourg City's gleaming skyscrapers, deep gorge and World Heritage fortifications. Travel to northeastern Luxembourg by train to Vianden's silver-turreted hilltop castle, Echternach's Benedictine abbey and Clervaux's medieval castle. In southeastern Luxembourg, unwind in the thermal waters of Mondorf-les-Bains.
In the north, Müllerthal's bizarre sandstone rock formations and the wild crags of the Ardennes forest are mesmerising. Cycle past medieval ruins and prehistoric caves in the Valley of Seven Castles, pick strawberries in Steinsel and visit wineries along the Moselle river. Travel south by Luxembourg's CFL train to Land of Red Rocks, so-called for its iron-rich red earth.
Take Home
Snap up cut-price crystalware from Villeroy & Boch's factory outlet, go potty for Nospelt's chunky blue-and-white earthenware or stock up on fruity Moselle wine.
Eat & Drink
Foodies love f'rell am rèisleck (trout in white wine sauce), gromperekniddelen (potato dumplings) and fierkelsjhelli (suckling pig), washed down with fragrant Riesling or full-bodied Pinot Gris wines. Try Vianden's walnut cake, Ardennes ham and drepp, schnapps flavoured with honey, pine or herbs.
New Perspective
Approach Luxemburg City by train on the scenic railway journey from the north on Ligne 10, past historic towns like Mersch and Clervaux.

"After researching all the various websites available in the USA, to buy tickets for European trains, I settled on Rail Europe. The website is quite easy to use, and the information available is both comprehensive and accurate. Everything worked out perfectly, and the tickets I printed here in the USA, were accepted with no questions, from the conductor. When I use trains again in Europe, I will not hesitate to go straight to Rail Europe. "

"There have always been questions about your sexuality. Why?" OMG! Insider's Kevin Frazier asks singer Johnny Gill, referring to years of speculation and more than a decade of rumors about a relationship with Eddie Murphy.
Gill says that he is "not sure" how or why the rumors began. But, he adds, the "gossip" became so intense that he "decided to take a lie detector test about [the] rumors" for his girlfriend. "I would never want to lay next to someone that might even remotely have any doubt or question of who I am."
Gill was featured in a new episode of TV One's Unsung that debuted Wednesday evening. The former New Edition singer infamously told a Philadelphia radio station in 2005 that he was "100 percent all man."

sireniansīrē´nēən [key] or sea cow, name for a large aquatic mammal of the order Sirenia. Living sirenians are the dugong and the manatee, both found in warm, shallow waters in sheltered regions, where they feed on seaweeds and seagrasses. Sirenians are the only marine mammals, outside of the whale order, that spend their entire lives in the water, and they are the only marine mammals that feed exclusively on vegetation. Their heavy, thickset bodies are fishlike in form, the tail ending in a horizontally flattened fin. There are no hind legs, and the forelegs are modified into weak flippers. The gray skin is largely hairless, but there are short bristles (vibrissae) concentrated around the fleshy lips and distributed more sparsely on the body that aid the sense of touch; the upper lip is cleft into two lobes, used for gathering food. The female has a pair of mammary glands on the chest, and holds the pup in her flippers while nursing. It has been speculated that the manatees, which nurse on the water's surface, are the source of mermaid legends.
