What does everyone think about GTA3:PC?

Looking for GTA3:PC articles and reviews? Stilton takes a look at some of the best on the net.

Gamespot :: 9.3 / 10

An extremely well-written and thorough review, one of the best I've read to date. Picks up on various good points that other reviews seem to miss out;

We tested the game on the "recommended" system--a 700Mhz CPU with 128MB of RAM and a 32MB graphics card--and were required to turn every detail to its lowest setting to make the game playable. And even then, it stuttered enough that the PS2 version seemed like the better alternative. It's hard to imagine that Grand Theft Auto III would run at all on the so-called minimum specs. [...]Fortunately, a replay option has been added to the PC port. Unfortunately, it's not very good. [...] No camera controls-- other than a free look around your position--are available during the replay, nor are there any video controls, such as fast forward, rewind, pause, or frame advance. What's more, the replays are often more of a close approximation of what happened rather than a strict re-creation. The replay system is so absurdly bare-boned that it feels like more of a hastily thrown together afterthought than a significant additional feature.

Perhaps those quotes don't give an overall view of the reviewers opinion - they do go on to praise the crap out of the game and award it a 'superb' rating. If you're going to read one review of GTA3, this is the one you should check out. They have also uploaded 31 new screenshots of the game, and, if you're a Gamespot Complete user, you can watch their 'Video Review' of the game. Good stuff.

GamesDomain.com :: 5/5

The gameplay is sublimely balanced, varying between infuriatingly difficult and enjoyably slick, but thanks to the beauty of the game design, if at any point it becomes too much, you can move away and enjoy another area. The game also adapts well to the PC interface, particularly where weapons are concerned - the frustrating business of attempting to aim accurately using the PS2 joypad has been replaced with the far more controllable mouse.

MonkeyReview.com :: (no rating)

Well the game is obviously a hit with most of the staff here at Monkeyreview as well as many many other individuals of the series. I cant say I have been the fan of the GTA series as many others are but this particular title has grabbed me and left me at the end of it bruised battered and begging for more. I would recommend this to anyone who has liked previous versions or those looking for a few hours or even days of steady hardcore gaming, because of itís open ended game play itís replay ability is through the roof and each time you play things will be different and you will definitely like some of itís more difficult missions which will have you playing the level over and over again

This is a pretty good review, goes in to a lot of detail - the review spans 3 pages. They make a couple of slip ups (blaming R* for requiring an XP patch where it's actually XP's fault) but overall it's a good review.

GameRankings.com :: 99%

Politicians, Christian groups, and parents alike have bashed GTA 3. But Rockstar Games has given them all the finger, and you should too, especially now that what some consider the greatest game ever created is that much closer to perfection. Just make sure your system's got what it takes, kid.

Ok, GameRankings win the award for highest review score % yet. Not one bad word to say. Good stuff.

ActionTrip.Com :: 90/100

As I went deeper into GTA3, I realized that even with all the things that the designers thought of and put in the game world - all the urban buzz you can experience in this world, there was so much there, and yet so much more room for additions and improvements, it's a bit scary. Even if we totally disregard the main story one could make a great game out of GTA3 just by adding more stuff to buy, more secrets to unlock and some experience points to gather. This game definitely has the potential of becoming an evil-Sims game or something like it.

SpinXero :: B+

Pros: open ended mayhem, tons of missions, over the top violence. Cons: Semi-Repetitive, some missions downright impossible, radio stations repeat too much

Yup, you read it right, GTA3 gets a sub-brilliant review. Now obviously I could pick into this reviewer going over his critical points. I could, for example, say that the game being semi-repetitive (he goes on to say it "does suffer a bit in the replay department") is a load of rubbish. I, for example, explain how the game is completely open-ended, and has 100s of hours of gameplay if you just had imagination to try different things. I could also pick apart his point that "radio stations repeat too much" is also rubbish, being that there is 3 hours of music. I could ask him what other games he knows have 3 hours of music and chat on them. But I won't do any of that, as it's all his opinion. However wrong it maybe.

EuroGamer.net :: (no score)

If you're thinking about buying GTA3, you have to ask yourself two questions - do I already own the PS2 version, and is my PC much more than a year old. If the answer to either of these questions is yes, you can probably forget about it. If you have yet to witness the splendours of GTA3 though and have the hardware to handle it, you're in for a real treat. GTA3 looks great, sounds great and plays great, will keep you busy for months, and has the kind of production values most PC games can only dream of.

Battle-Fields.com :: 9/10

The graphics and sounds compared to the PS2 version are a vast improvement. On my machine I can run the game with full graphic enhancements at a resolution of 1280x 1024, with only a slight lag at moments where there is a lot going on in the screen. But needless to say, it looks very pretty, and with details such as reflections in puddles in the road, as well as a complete weather and night/day system, it all adds to a spectacular experience.

Yo...Don't apologize for how you're feeling. Your feelings, your pain, are as valid as anyone else's, and I can't say how much I appreciate you sharing your thoughts and hurt on your blog. I think that the second-to-last paragraph sums up your needs pretty well--bearing in mind, of course, that you know you best. Take the time you need. If you're not ready to date again, that's fine.

I was with a guy for two years and we broke up. It took me almost double that to end the mourning process. I dated during that time, but I wasn't interested in anything serious. Mostly, I just needed to find something to take up my spare time, and for me, dating helped. It may not be the same for you. Just remember--you know your own feelings the best. If you need more time, take it. If you need to talk to your friends, do so. I doubt they're bothered by it. They are, after all, your friends for a reason. Love is powerful; seek out those who love you most when you need them.K. A. McFaddenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11147966610308173681noreply@blogger.com


Are there any resources for using Apache CXF with Google Guice? I know that since version 2.4.0 CXF has been unbundled from Spring and doesn't require it anymore, but I can't seem to find any real world examples/tutorials where Guice has been successfully integrated with CXF. Any such resources would be appreciated.


1. Field Of The Invention
The present invention relates to a plastic container and specifically a large plastic refuse container that includes two external side fork pockets secured to walls of the container in a manner that facilitates the lifting of the container with the forks of a refuse truck. Additionally, this invention relates to a refuse container drain, and a refuse container that can be stacked and nested for shipping purposes.
2. Prior Art
The use of plastic to fabricate refuse containers is well known in the art. Until recently however, all large plastic refuse containers, i.e., those having a volume of a yard or more were manufactured by roto-molding, or by blow molding. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,496,813 (Lee, et al.) discloses a blow molding apparatus useful for fabricating a plastic container. In contrast, the large plastic refuse container of this invention is manufactured using plastic injection molding techniques. As a result many problems directly related to injection molding the container had to be overcome in designing the plastic refuse container of this invention.
The use of lift tubes associated with refuse containers is well known in the art as shown in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,623,631 (Ford); 3,823,972 (Ramer); and 4,335,828 (Robinson, et al.) However, the lift tubes of the containers disclosed in those patents are all integral to the walls of metal containers.
The use of a metal lift tube sleeve in conjunction with a plastic container is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,550,849 (Adsit). However, the metal lift tube of the '849 patent is incorporated into the container during the roto-molding process. Additionally, the lift tubes of the '849 patent are integral to the inside dimension of the container.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,416,374 (Smith) describes stackable or nestable, plastic containers. The containers include platforms in the top portion of the open, inner dimension of the container that are complementary to depressions in the bottom dimension of the same container allowing multiple containers to be stacked, one on top of the other, for shipping and handling purposes. The '374 patent does not disclose stacking platforms associated with external elements of a plastic container.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,917,257 (Edelhoff) discloses a small plastic refuse container including an integrally molded-in pocket that supports the container during mechanical lifting.
Other embodiments of plastic containers are known in the art. The art, however, is devoid of large plastic refuse containers having attachable side fork pockets.


Cholinephosphotransferase and ethanolaminephosphotransferase activities in Plasmodium knowlesi-infected erythrocytes. Their use as parasite-specific markers.
CDPcholine: 1,2-diacylglycerol cholinephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.2) and CDPethanolamine: 1,2-diacylglycerol ethanolaminephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.1) activities were investigated in Plasmodium knowlesi-infected erythrocytes obtained from Macaca fascicularis monkeys. Disrupted infected erythrocytes possess a cholinephosphotransferase activity (1.3 +/- 0.2 nmol phosphatidylcholine/10(7) infected cells per h) 1.5-times higher than the ethanolaminephosphotransferase activity. Optimal activities of both enzymes were observed in the presence of 12 mM MnCl2, which was about 3-times as effective as 40 mM MgCl2 as a cofactor. The two activities had similar dependences on pH and thermal inactivation. Their Arrhenius plots show an identical break at 17 degrees C and the corresponding activation energies below and above the critical temperature were similar for the two activities. Sodium deoxycholate, sodium dodecyl sulfate, Triton X-100, beta-D-octylglucoside and lysophosphatidylcholine strongly inhibited the two activities above their critical micellar concentration, but the first three detergents stimulated the activities at lower concentrations. Saponin (0.004-0.5%) either did not affect the two activities or else increased them. Cholinephosphotransferase and ethanolaminephosphotransferase activities had apparent Km values for the CDP ester of 23.4 and 18.6 microM, respectively. CDPcholine and CDPethanolamine competitively inhibited the ethanolaminephosphotransferase and cholinephosphotransferase activities, respectively. The high selectivity of these activities for individual molecular species of diradylglycerol suggests that substrate specificity is responsible for the various molecular species of Plasmodium-infected erythrocyte phospholipids. However, cholinephosphotransferase and ethanolaminephosphotransferase had different dependences on 1,2-dilauroylglycerol and 1-oleylglycerol, which were substrates for cholinephosphotransferase but not for ethanolaminephosphotransferase under our conditions. These data provide the first characterization of an enzyme involved in the intense lipid metabolism in Plasmodium-infected erythrocytes, and the presence of cholinephosphotransferase demonstrates a biosynthesis of phosphatidylcholine by the Kennedy pathway after infection. Our data suggest that cholinephosphotransferase and ethanolaminephosphotransferase activities could be catalyzed by the same enzyme. Furthermore, since host erythrocytes are devoid of these enzymatic activities, cholinephosphotransferase is a parasite-specific membrane-associated enzyme which can be used as a probe or marker.


3 Md. App. 708 (1968)
240 A.2d 646
JAMES THOMAS
v.
STATE OF MARYLAND.
No. 177, September Term, 1967.
Court of Special Appeals of Maryland.
Decided April 18, 1968.
The cause was argued before MURPHY, C.J., and MORTON, ORTH, and THOMPSON, JJ.
Richard K. Jacobsen, with whom was James J. White, III, on the brief, for appellant.
Fred Oken, Assistant Attorney General, with whom were Francis B. Burch, Attorney General, and William Parsons Fennell, State's Attorney for Kent County, on the brief, for appellee.
PER CURIAM:
The appellant was found guilty by a jury in the Circuit Court for Kent County of five offenses of uttering a false check. On each offense the judgment of the court was that he restore the property taken or pay the full value thereof. He was sentenced to imprisonment for a term of 2 years on the first offense. A like term was imposed on each of the other four offenses, each of those sentences to run consecutively with each of the sentences imposed prior to it.
On appeal the appellant attacks the validity of each of the judgments by contending that the lineup in which he appeared was not conducted in a fair and impartial manner. The short answer is that testimony as to the identification of the appellant *711 at the lineup and his identification in court came into evidence in the State's case on direct examination of a police officer and six other witnesses without objection and the witnesses were cross-examined at length on the matter by appellant's counsel. There was no motion to strike the testimony. The point not being tried and decided by the lower court, it is not properly before this Court and we do not deem it necessary or desirable for us to decide it within the purview of Md. Rule, 1085. See Bell v. State, 2 Md. App. 471.
The appellant attack two of the judgments against him on the ground that the evidence was not sufficient to sustain the convictions with regard to them.[1] The arguments as to the sufficiency of the evidence with respect to the challenged convictions go only to the identification of the appellant.
Evidence adduced by the State showed that 100 blank drafts of the United States Fidelity and Guaranty Company, numbers 222301 to 222401, had been found to be missing from that Company's supply. Five of them, numbers 222313, 222314, 222316, 222317 and 222399, proved to be forged, were the basis of the charges against the appellant. Each of them, the blanks filled out by typewriter, were identical except for a fictitious claim number. Each was dated July 5, 1966, payable to the order of Lloyd Dover, 4008 Cedardale Rd., Baltimore 15, Maryland, in the amount of $95 and designated the date of the accident as February 17, 1966. Each bore an unauthorized countersignature, "Van Crawford" and each was endorsed "Lloyd Dover."
Mathilda Wessell, a note teller of the Maryland National Bank, testified that she cashed draft No. 222314. Asked who gave her the check to cash she said, "I think it was the defendant, but I am not absolutely sure. It was a busy evening." She designated the appellant as the man to whom she referred. She said she had identified the appellant at a lineup. "I picked him out among the group that was there. As I say, the night *712 I cashed the check it was a busy evening, but he was the one that I thought, felt pretty sure was the man I cashed the check for." She also had picked his photograph from among four photographs shown her. She had no difficulty picking out the photograph of the appellant. "I thought it was the picture. I knew it wasn't any of the others. I felt pretty sure that this was the picture of the man I had seen, that I cashed the check for. I knew it was not any of the other pictures that I saw." On cross-examination she said, "I feel sure it was the defendant. I couldn't swear to it." Asked, "You're not positive?" she replied, "No sir." The police officer who conducted the lineup testified that she had picked the appellant "out as the man who had cashed the check" but as she "walked out in the hall (after viewing the lineup) she said, `I'm sure that's him, I'm almost sure that's him.'"
Alex Rasin, an employee of The Peoples Bank of Chestertown testified that he cashed draft No. 222317. The appellant and another man came into the bank and came up to the window. Rasin identified the appellant as one of the men. He had been shown some photographs but was unable to identify the appellant from the photographs shown him. Later he attended a lineup and "I was able to positively point out the defendant as one of the two men that presented the check to me * * * I had no difficulty whatsoever then." Asked during his testimony, "Do you have any doubt now that the defendant in the Courtroom today was one of the men that participated in this transaction wherein a check was cashed by you at People's Bank * * *?" he replied, "No sir, no doubt whatsoever." The police officer who conducted the lineup testified that when Rasin viewed the lineup "he pointed to the defendant as the one immediately as he walked in the room." But while Rasin was positive in his identification of the appellant as one of the two men who came up to his window and requested the draft be cashed, he could not say which of the two endorsed the check and showed him a Maryland driver's license for identification, representing himself as "Lloyd Dover." He said, "I cannot remember which one presented the check. They were together and one of them presented it and one of them signed it and one of the men is the defendant."
*713 The five indictments under which the appellant was charged were consolidated for trial. There was evidence before the jury, as the appellant concedes, sufficient to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the appellant had uttered three other similar false drafts about the same time he uttered the two here discussed. The evidence with regard to those other three charges was relevant, not only as to the guilt of the appellant as to those specific charges, but also as to his guilt with respect to the drafts cashed at the Maryland National Bank and The Peoples Bank of Chestertown. The Court of Appeals said in Ward v. State, 219 Md. 559, 562-563:
"An accused must be convicted by evidence which shows that he is guilty of the offense charged; and, under ordinary circumstances, evidence that he has done other acts which constitute a crime has no relevance towards showing that he did that with which he is presently charged. If, however, the evidence of another offense has a natural tendency to establish, or offers a reasonable presumption or inference as to, a principal fact at issue or matter in dispute, it should be admitted even though it discloses other offenses. (cases cited). This Court said in Purviance v. State, 185 Md. 189, 196: `While guilt cannot be established by proving that the defendant has committed other crimes, it is firmly established that evidence of acts may be admitted to show motive, intent, absence of mistake or accident, a common scheme, or identity embracing the commission of two or more crimes so related to each other that proof of one tends to establish the other.'"
Thus the evidence as to the cashing of substantially identical drafts at three other places, at about the same time as the cashing of the two drafts which were the basis of the charges here challenged, was relevant with respect to convictions here attacked on the element of guilty knowledge of the appellant in uttering the drafts, on the issue of a scheme or plan to cash a series of identical forged drafts to obtain goods and money from various merchants and business establishments and on the question *714 of identity. Bishop v. State, 55 Md. 138; Bell v. State, 57 Md. 108; Lyman v. State, 136 Md. 40; Mazer v. State, 212 Md. 60. Further, with regard to the testimony of Mrs. Wessell, the lack of positiveness of the identification of the appellant affected only its weight and the sufficiency of the identification was a matter for the jury to determine. Logan v. State, 1 Md. App. 213, 217. And with regard to the testimony of Rasin, it is clear that the appellant was one of the two men who participated in the cashing of the draft. It was immaterial whether the appellant was the one who in fact physically presented the draft to Rasin or was the other participant. Assuming that he was not the one who actually presented the draft and forged the endorsement, by his presence in concert with the actual perpetrator, in a position to assist if necessary, or prevent interference or detection, or for the purposes of encouragement at the moment of the commission of the felony, he was a principal in the second degree, the evidence showing that the one here assumed arguendo to have presented the check was a principal in the first degree. Agresti v. State, 2 Md. App. 278, 280; Md. Code (1967 Repl. Vol.), Art. 27, § 44. As to indictment, conviction and punishment, there is no distinction between principals in the first and second degree. McEntire v. State, 2 Md. App. 449, 453.
This Court does not weigh the evidence presented to the jury, but only determines its sufficiency to take a particular issue, or the entire case, to the jury, when the point is properly preserved. It has been consistently held that in order to overturn a judgment entered on a verdict of a jury for insufficiency of the evidence it is necessary that there be no legally sufficient evidence or inferences drawable therefrom on which the jury could find a defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Quinn v. State, 1 Md. App. 373, 375. In the instant case, we find that there was such legally sufficient evidence before the jury.
Judgments affirmed.
NOTES
[1]  The record includes a written motion for judgment of acquittal which was presented to the court and denied at the close of the evidence offered by the State and "re-presented" and denied at the close of all the evidence. The motions and actions thereon do not appear in the transcript of the trial but are reflected in the docket entries.


Q:

Routing from home VPN to other VPN (ASA 5505)

I'd like to see if somebody here can help me with an in-principle answer on which direction take.
We have an office LAN (192.168.100.0/24) connected to a production data centre (10.100.0.0/16) via a VPN. The office firewall is an ASA 5505. In addition, we have people connecting to the office firewall from home via IPSec client access.
Home       Production
|          |
|          |
------|-----
      |
      | outside
------------
| ASA 5505 |
|-----------
      | inside
      |
      | Office LAN

Our problem is that when connecting from home, it's not possible to connect to the production network at all, i.e. can't ping from 192.168.1.2 (my home PC) to 10.100.34.3
I understand that there may be some restrictions here because both the home endpoint and the production endpoint go into the "outer" interfaces.
My questions are:

Is it possible to even set up this topology using a Cisco ASA 5505? If so, what do you do to make traffic flow from one VPN connection to another?
If not possible, how do you make it possible? Put a L3 switch behind the ASA and put routing logic in place there?

This is bugging us a lot because we keep having to go through jump hosts and SSH forwarding in the office when working outside, which is really time consuming and doesn't work for everything.

A:

Yes, this configuration is possible using a Cisco 5505. It's referred to as a VPN hairpin because traffic from the outside interface is coming inbound and then routing back outbound through the same outside interface.
There are three key components to this configuration.
1) Allow communication in/out of the same interface
same-security-traffic permit intra-interface

2) Add the RAS VPN pool IP space to the interesting traffic for the site to site VPN.
 access-list (vpn-acl-name) extended permit ip object Vpn-Pool ip object Data-Centre-IPs

3) Add a no-nat entry for the relevant traffic from outside to outside
nat (outside,outside) source static Vpn-Pool Vpn-Pool destination static Data-Centre-IPs Data-Centre-IPs

This is assuming you're on a post 8.3 code.

Stories, Fan-Fiction and Opinions

Opinion: Part Two: Rules of the Road

I’m posting this a day early mainly because I’m going to be busy this weekend but I really want this to be said. I’m also hoping to get a few responses to this because I’d really like to learn something I may not know.

Picture courtesy of Wikipedia.

Also please excuse the formatting. I wrote this in Word and copied it here, but yeah I’m still tinkering with the formatting on WordPress.

Let me know what you think. Thanks!

At the beginning of the month I wrote part one of this article that pretty much dealt with what my pet peeves about driving are, and a mention about the “new” Indiana law that’s taking effect on July 1.

What a lot of people are calling the “left lane law”.

Basically what happened is that someone at the media was told or somehow found out that some genius at the state capital decided that they would amend the current law so that people driving in the left for an extended period of time, who didn’t get out of the way of people coming up fast behind them, would get ticketed.

Please note that I said the media – in that they had a field day with this. Specifically the part that said those driving in the left most lane of a highway or freeway would be punished. That’s the only thing they ever said about this amendment to the current law.

The supposed complaint that prompted this amendment is that it will deter reckless drivers (ie, slow drivers in the left most lane) and possibly prevent road rage.

The other side is that people who are obeying the law – basically the speed limit – are now being punished while speeders are being given the “Get Out Of Jail Free Card”.

Well, that first part’s never going to happen. People are going to go ape-shit on someone no matter what the government does – but the reason for that is an entirely different and debatable topic.

I may touch on that later sometime.

Ok, so, wanting to be more informed about all this before I go spouting my opinion without providing useless facts, I did a little digging.

These names will probably not mean anything to anyone living outside of the state of Indiana. Hell, I’m sure they don’t mean anything to most people living inside the state either.

But as we all know, most laws that are passed under the guise of one thing usually has some underwritten, underhanded, underneath stuff that benefits only one particular group and has nothing to do with the actual bill. It just hides there so it’s not found by the general public who don’t read these laws because it’s too much, too crunched together, and has too much legalese in it.

Found out that this bill also makes it illegal for a person to possess an Indiana drivers’ license and one from other state – this is considered a Class C infraction.

You can get penalized for not slowing down or changing lanes if you come across a vehicle on the side of the road with its flashers on.

Your license can be suspended if you don’t show proof of insurance.

It’s now a class C misdemeanor if you don’t call 911 or render aid if you come across an accident.

If your license is suspended in another state you can’t obtain one in Indiana.

Wow! Seriously?

So yeah everything that was normally considered pretty much common sense is now a law because …

Now states can enforce and ticket and try to get money from these violators through the use of law enforcement officers, some of who already break other laws.

I’ve seen plenty of officers who perform “California rolls” so don’t tell me that they’re off to bust some criminal. He was on his phone at the time and didn’t look like he was in a hurry to get anywhere.

But what really gets me about this new “law” is the following – and these are verbatim (basically I’m copying and pasting here from the website):

Precludes an individual from being adjudicated a habitual traffic violator more than once for the same underlying offenses

Repeals language that applies criminal penalties to an entire chapter.

Removes the felony enhancement for selling a rebuilt vehicle without written notice.

Specifies the conditions under which a person’s driver’s license, permit, or driving privileges may be suspended, the duration of the suspension, and whether the person may receive specialized driving privileges

At close to the end of all of these is the small sentence about changing from the left lane.

But right now I’m reading the rest of these items, the ones I have underlined above, and I’m saying to myself – WTF?

Makes impossible or prevents the existence of an individual from being judged a habitual traffic violator more than once for the same underlying offenses.

What?

Gives the person permission to petition the court and claim they are a habitual traffic violator.

So these two lines mean that they can claim insanity? They can go out and drink and drive multiple times but only be charged once? What happens if they kill someone and then later on kill someone else? Does this law prohibit them from being charged for the second crime?

What’s the deal?

So, now the person who is constantly getting DUIs is safe from having her/his license suspended for life?

Exactly what type of specialization are we talking about here?

What language is being repealed? And why are we needing to repeal it? Who’s benefitting from this?

So, now it’s legal for Torretto to sell his mod street car? (For those who don’t know or have never watched them, he’s a character from the Fast & Furious movies and I’m sure I misspelled his name).

Now, with everything else being said above, there are certain conditions where one can be suspended, so long as it has nothing to do with anything that’s been said above.

Ok, so now we have all these words that to me seem to benefit the criminal. And yet the media said nothing about these. Is it because they thought the left side issue would cause the most drama so get the most sales or the most hits?

Were these other items already law or are they what I think they are – amendments to the already existing law?

But to top this off, our rep, Mr. McMillan, who authored this beauty also co-sponsored SB 101 – which many of you may or may not know is the Religious Freedom Restoration Act.

You remember that one right? George Takei had an issue with it and people were boycotting Indiana. Or for those not familiar – the one those pizza guys got flack for and then got all that money because they refused to cater a gay wedding.

Co-author Rep. Pierce also co-authored HCR 75: Acknowledging the tragic assassination of Abraham Lincoln and the fact that he “truly belongs to the ages”.

Didn’t he die in 1865? It’s 2015 right? History buff wasting time and state funding? What exactly does this do and who does it do it for? And how much is this costing us?

Ok, by this time my stomach’s pretty much turning, so the other four yahoos tied to this law are off the hook for now because yeah.

Seriously?

Do people read this the same way I am? I mean, click on the link above and it’ll have links to everything else that the representatives have done plus goes into more detail (more or less) about this and other bills and amendments.


Jinns, Genies are also living beings but they are made of fire. Genie or Jinns can be conquered by human beings by special invocations and if the invocation is done properly then after the completion of the Invocation it is possible to conquer the genie of jinns. But they all are one having the same powers and if this power is conquered by any one that person will be a very powerful human being having any type of power to do anything and everything.

Looking for Genie Invocation spells or formulas for invocation of genies. Then here you will get all the information on genies. Jinn invocation is done to conquer jinns. Invocation of jinn is possible by jinn spells or genie spells with talismans or charms.

So Genies can be called with different name. Some common genie name are JINNS, GENIES, DJINNS, ANGEL, HAMZAAD, JABAL, AJINNA MUSSA, DJINNS and more, whatever may be the name but evocation of these powers and the method to evoke genies or jinns, djinns are the same as they are same power.

So if you have questions in your mind that how to conquer the genie or jinn, or how to get the genie invocation spells or jinn invocation spells, or how to get information on djinns etc. you may not worry. If you need any information of genie formulas or jinn spells email me and I will guide you with all the information you require.

Summoning of genies or Invocation of genies is easy. Summoning or invocation of genies, jinns etc. requires proper concentration and then invocation of genies (jinns) is possible.call Prof Aafa +27730066655 ,Email, profaafa@yahoo.co.za or visit , http://www.profaafaspellcaster.com

She is set to debut as "Darna" in a stand-alone movie.

And director Erik Matti has revealed in a report published Wednesday that the planned Star Cinema film will not be Liza Soberano's only appearance as the iconic Pinay superheroine.

Speaking with Push, Matti explained the "unanimous" decision to have the "Dolce Amore" star succeed Angel Locsin, who had to back out because of a spine injury.

"She’s fresh, she's young, she could grow into the role," he said, before adding that this could be Soberano's chance to "break out" of the "young teeny actress" stereotype.

"She's slowly going to graduate into becoming a serious actor," Matti reasoned. "And I think parang tama lang ito for her. Remember it is going to be a franchise, she is not just going to come out in one."

In 2013, ABS-CBN acquired the rights to the iconic characters created by Filipino komiks legend Mars Ravelo. It included Darna, Dyesebel, and Captain Barbel.

Soberano was first announced as Darna back in May.

Locsin, who was initially cast to reprise the superhero role she first portrayed in 2005 before an injury forced her out, has already given her approval of Star Cinema's decision to go with Soberano.

"Bukod sa napakagandang mukha, magaling na aktres, mabuting tao, mahal niya iyong trabaho niya, at grabe rin iyong charisma niya -- napakaimportante iyon," she said of Soberano. "I think panahon na para i-welcome natin ang bagong Darna."

Soberano is currently undergoing training for the role.

A release date for the "Darna" film has yet to be released.


Computational cognitive modeling for the diagnosis of Specific Language Impairment.
Specific Language Impairment (SLI), as many other cognitive deficits, is difficult to diagnose given its heterogeneous profile and its overlap with other impairments. Existing techniques are based on different criteria using behavioral variables on different tasks. In this paper we propose a methodology for the diagnosis of SLI that uses computational cognitive modeling in order to capture the internal mechanisms of the normal and impaired brain. We show that machine learning techniques that use the information of these models perform better than those that only use behavioral variables.


Q:

how to get sum on every loop on the table

I have a problem on breaking down the amount of the given payment, I think i was missing something on my code. This is my table below.
If i have payment of 5,000, it will deduct on the first row and the remaining sum will send to the 2nd row.
//this is the payment
$payment = 5000;
$temp = '';

//the loop of function
$data = payment_breakdown();
foreach ($data as $row) {

    $amount = $row['AMOUNT'] - $payment."\n";
}

//handle the difference of every loop of the function
$temp = $amount;

//result of the amount
echo $amount;

//this is my function to get the data from the table
function payment_breakdown(){
    $db = database2();
    $query = "SELECT AMOUNT FROM TABLE1";
    $cmd = $db->prepare($query);
    $cmd->execute();
    $rows = $cmd->fetchAll();
    $db = null;

    return $rows;
}

supposedly if the amount on the table is this
Data From Table | The Payment
        3000    |     3000
        3000    |     2000

A:

You could do it in SQL:
SELECT
  amount,
  paid,
  sum(amount-paid) open
FROM
  payment
GROUP BY amount, paid
WITH ROLLUP
HAVING
  amount IS NULL
  OR paid IS NOT NULL
;

Based on the data
INSERT INTO payment (amount, paid)
VALUES
(3000,3000),
(3000,2000),
(4000,1000)
;

you get
amount;paid; open
3000  ;2000; 1000
3000  ;3000; 0
4000  ;1000; 3000
NULL  ;NULL; 4000

Or you might want a simple substraction from a deposit:
SET @credit := 5000;

SELECT
  amount,
  @credit := @credit-amount credit
FROM payment
;

SELECT @credit;

However, in the latter case you should rather store all payments and amounts to pay into database tables and sum up all together. Consider refactoring your database structure design.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 23 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Four individuals were sentenced today by U.S. District Judge Marianne O. Battani in federal court in Detroit for their roles in a wide-ranging international stock fraud scheme involving the illegal use of bulk commercial e-mails, or "spamming," announced Assistant Attorney General of the Criminal Division Lanny A. Breuer and U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan Terrence Berg.

Alan M. Ralsky, 64, of West Bloomfield, Mich., and Scott Bradley, 48, also of West Bloomfield, were sentenced to 51 months and 40 months in prison, respectively, for conspiring to commit wire fraud, mail fraud, and to violate the CAN-SPAM Act, and also for committing wire fraud, engaging in money laundering and violating the CAN-SPAM Act. Ralsky and Bradley were also each sentenced to 5 years of supervised release following their respective prison terms, and were each ordered to forfeit $250,000 that the United States seized in December 2007.

How Wai John Hui, 51, a resident of Hong Kong and Canada, was sentenced to 51 months in prison for conspiring to commit wire fraud, mail fraud and to violate the CAN-SPAM Act, and also for committing wire fraud and engaging in money laundering. Hui was sentenced to 3 years of supervised release following his prison term, and agreed to forfeit $500,000 to the United States.

John S. Bown, 45, of Fresno, Calif., was sentenced to 32 months in prison for conspiring to commit wire fraud, mail fraud and to violate the CAN-SPAM Act, for conspiring to commit computer fraud by creating a botnet, and also for violating the CAN-SPAM Act. A botnet is a network of computers that have been infected by malicious software. Bown was sentenced to 3 years of supervised release following his prison term, and agreed to forfeit $120,000 to the United States.

"Today's sentencing sends a powerful message to spammers whose goal is to manipulate financial transactions and the stock market through illegal e-mail advertisements," said Assistant Attorney General Lanny A. Breuer. "People who use fraudulent e-mails to drive up stock prices and reap illicit profits will be prosecuted, and they will face significant prison time."

"With today's sentence of the self-proclaimed 'Godfather of Spam,' Alan Ralsky, and three others who played central roles in a complicated stock spam pump and dump scheme, the Court has made it clear that advancing fraud through abuse of the Internet will lead to several years in prison," said U.S. Attorney Terrence Berg for the Eastern District of Michigan. "I commend the FBI, the Postal Inspection Service, and the IRS Criminal Investigative Division for their determined and careful investigation in this case which lead to today's result."

"Through this conspiracy Ralsky and the others were able to manipulate the stock market and maximize their profit. They flooded our e-mail boxes with unwanted spam e-mail and attempted to use a botnet to hijack our computers assist them in the scheme. Cyber crime investigations are a top priority of the FBI and we will continue to aggressively investigate those individuals who use and hide behind computers to commit various crimes," said Andrew G. Arena, Special Agent in Charge, FBI.

"In today's competitive international business world, there will always be a select few who illegally manipulate the system for their own profit," said Maurice Aouate, Special Agent in Charge, Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation. "IRS-CI will continue to diligently follow the money and assist in the seizure and forfeiture of any ill-gotten gains from their illegal business practices."

"Today marks a victory for all who entrust their money to others within the U.S. economy," said Joseph A. Pirone, U.S. Postal Inspector in Charge. "Postal Inspectors have protected Americans from those who use the U.S. Mail for fraudulent purposes since the passage of the Mail Fraud Statute in 1872. The sentencing of Ralsky and Bradley demonstrates the Postal Inspection Service's continuing commitment to protect the public."

According to court documents, from January 2004 through September 2005, Ralsky, Bradley, Judy Devenow, Bown, William Neil, James Bragg, James Fite, Hui, Francis Tribble and others allegedly engaged in a related set of conspiracies designed to use spam e-mails to manipulate thinly traded stocks and profit by trading in those stocks once their share prices increased after recipients of the spam e-mails traded in the stocks being promoted.

Ralsky served as the chief executive officer and primary deal maker for the spam e-mail operation. Bradley, Ralsky's son-in-law, served as the chief financial officer and director of operations for the spam e-mail operation. Bown, who was chief executive officer of an Internet services company, GDC Layer One, served as the chief technology officer for the spam e-mail operation. Hui, who was the CEO of China World Trade, served as the lead dealmaker representing the companies whose stocks were being promoted via spam e-mail.

According to court documents, many of the spam e-mails promoted thinly traded "pink sheet" stocks for U.S. companies owned and controlled by individuals in Hong Kong and China. The spam e-mails contained materially false and misleading information or omissions and were created and sent using software programs that made it difficult to trace them back to the conspirators. According to the indictment, the conspirators used wire communications, the U.S. mail and common carriers to perpetrate their frauds. The conspirators also engaged in money laundering involving millions of dollars generated by their manipulative stock trading.

According to the indictment, the defendants used various illegal methods in order to maximize the amount of spam that evaded spam-blocking devices and tricked recipients into opening, and acting on, the advertisements in the spam. These included using falsified "headers" in the e-mail messages, using proxy computers to relay the spam, using falsely registered domain names to send the spam, and also making misrepresentations in the advertising content of some of the underlying e-mail messages.

The defendants were indicted in the Eastern District of Michigan in December 2007. Ralsky, Bradley, Bown, William Neil, Bragg, and Fite pleaded guilty in June 2009 while Hui pleaded guilty in December 2008. Tribble and Devenow pleaded guilty in October 2008. Tribble, Devenow, William Neil, Bragg and Fite are scheduled to be sentenced tomorrow by Judge Battani.

Anki Neil and Peter Severa are also named as defendants in the indictment returned in the Eastern District of Michigan and their cases are still pending. An indictment is merely an accusation and defendants are presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty at trial beyond a reasonable doubt.

The charges arose after a three-year investigation, led by the FBI with assistance from the U.S. Postal Inspection Service and IRS-CI revealed a sophisticated and extensive spamming operation. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's Philadelphia Regional Office has provided significant ongoing assistance in this case. The case is being prosecuted by U.S. Attorney Terrence Berg and Assistant U.S. Attorney Julie Beck and Trial Attorneys Thomas Dukes and Mona Sedky of the Criminal Division's Computer Crime and Intellectual Property Section.


Q:

Split column into multiple columns based on character count

I currently have only one column in a table.  Each row contains the exact same amount of characters.  I need a way to be able to split this one column into multiple columns.  The table has over 1.1 million rows, so efficiency in code is pretty important.  All of the rows are set up with the same structure, meaning the first 5 characters are always dedicated for firstname, the next 6 are always for lastname for example.  I know how to take the left most characters using:
insert into table2
select left(column1,2), substring(column1, 3, len(column1) ) from table1

The problem with the above, is that 1) it creates a new table instead of modifying the existing.  And 2) Once I have the first set of characters split into a column I don't know how to grab the next set.
Below is an example of how I would like it to work:
Current
Column 1

abcdefghijklmnop
qrstuvwxyz123456

What I would like:
Column 1 ----------- Column 2 --------- Column 3

abcdefg--------------hij----------------klmnop
qrstuvw--------------xyz----------------123456

picture below:

I can usually fix this through how I important the data in SQL.  However the txt file that I use to import the data has no way to dilimate the columns correctly so it has to all be brought in as one column.

A:

Here is the exact scenario that you have mentioned here.
DROP TABLE dbo.table1
DROP TABLE dbo.table2

CREATE TABLE dbo.table1
 (column1 VARCHAR(100))

CREATE TABLE dbo.table2
 (column1 VARCHAR(100),
  column2 VARCHAR(100),
  column3 VARCHAR(100)
 )

INSERT INTO dbo.table1
VALUES ('abcdefghijklmnop'),('qrstuvwxyz123456')

INSERT INTO dbo.table2
SELECT LEFT(column1,7) AS column1,SUBSTRING(column1,8,3) column2,RIGHT(column1,6) column3
FROM dbo.table1

SELECT *
FROM table1

SELECT *
FROM table2

___________________________________

           Submitted October 31, 2017 – Decided November 28, 2017

           Before Judges Yannotti and Mawla.

           On appeal from Superior Court of New Jersey,
           Chancery Division, Bergen County, Docket No.
           P-000246-12.

           James E. Young, Jr., attorney for appellant
           Linda Hall.

           Cuccio   and   Cuccio,  PC,   attorneys  for
           respondent Carol Polak Reid (Emil S. Cuccio,
           on the brief).

PER CURIAM

     Linda Hall, the Executrix of the Estate of Bertha Polak,

appeals from an order entered by the Chancery Division on July 13,

2016, granting an application by Carol Polak Reid for a wage

execution to execute a judgment previously entered against Hall.

We affirm.
     We take the following facts from the record.                  Following a

bench trial, a judgment was entered in favor of the Estate of

Bertha Polak on June 2, 2014.           The judgment required Hall to pay

the Estate $44,570.70.         Reid, a beneficiary of the Estate, would

receive $24,638.94.       The judgment also denied Hall an executor's

commission.

     The $44,570.70 due to the Estate was to be used to satisfy a

mortgage on a property owned by the Estate.              Because Hall did not

pay the judgment, the Estate paid off the mortgage at the closing

on the sale of the property.         According to the judgment, Hall was

to receive $19,931.76 from a trust account. That money was applied

to the judgment of $44,570.70, leaving the $24,638.94 due and

owing.    The judgment also denied Hall an executor's commission.

Hall appealed and we affirmed the judgment. In re Estate of Bertha

Polak, No. A-4207-13 (App. Div. Dec. 31, 2015) (slip op. at 1).

     Hall   did    not   pay   the   judgment,     and   Reid   sought   a   wage

execution to recoup the $24,638.94.          On July 13, 2016, the trial

judge    entered    an   order    and    written    findings     granting     the

garnishment.      He reiterated the calculation used to arrive at the

sum due and owing to Reid.              The judge repeated Hall was not

entitled to a $10,000 commission as executrix, and that the sum

was already "reflected in the judgment."                 The judge concluded

"[t]herefore, the judgment entered by the court and affirmed by

                                        2                                A-0302-16T4
the Appellate Division is $24,638.94.       Accordingly . . . plaintiff

may garnish defendant's wages to collect the judgment."                This

appeal followed.

     Hall argues that the judge failed to make adequate findings

of fact.   The contention is without sufficient merit to warrant

discussion.     R. 2:11-3(e)(1)(E).      As noted, the judge did make

findings of fact, and they were more than sufficient to warrant

issuance   of   the   wage   execution   order.   In   addition,    Hall's

arguments were previously addressed in our decision in the prior

appeal, and therefore she is barred from re-litigating those issues

in opposing the application for a wage execution.

     The doctrine of res judicata applies to matters that have

previously been litigated and bars them from being re-litigated.

Nolan v. First Colony Life Ins. Co., 345 N.J. Super. 142, 153

(App. Div. 2001).     For res judicata to apply:

           there must be a valid, final judgment on       the
           merits in the prior action; the parties in     the
           second action must be identical to, or          in
           privity with those in the first action;        and
           the claim in the later action must arise       out
           of the same transaction or occurrence as       the
           claim in the first action.

           [Ibid. (citing Watkins v. Resorts Int'l Hotel
           & Casino, Inc., 124 N.J. 398, 412 (1991)).]

     We reject Hall's argument the judge failed to make adequate

findings of fact pursuant to Rule 1:7-4(a) regarding the wage

                                    3                              A-0302-16T4
execution.   This is because we previously affirmed the judge's

computation of the judgment entered against Hall, set forth in his

July 13, 2016 opinion, which included the $10,000 credit to Hall,

and denial of Hall's commission.    We stated:

          Based on the testimony and evidence presented
          at trial, the judge found that . . . Polak had
          been living with Hall and paying her $1,000 a
          month in rent. . . . Polak obtained a loan
          of $79,784.28, which was secured by a mortgage
          upon her property in Englewood. . . . Polak
          kept $10,000, and Hall borrowed the remaining
          $69,784.28 from . . . Polak to use to pay for
          renovations to Hall's home. In lieu of paying
          Hall rent, . . . Polak began to make mortgage
          payments of $922.93 per month.

          The judge noted that Article III(c) of . . .
          Polak's will stated that . . . Polak had taken
          out a loan for Hall in the amount of $69,000.
          The will stated:

               At the time of the sale of the
               property   Linda   Hall   shall   be
               responsible for repayment of this
               loan.   The total amount shall be
               paid back to the [e]state and this
               amount shall then be added to the
               proceeds of sale and be divided
               amongst my children, Carol, Lisa and
               Linda and the surviving children of
               my daughter Andrea.

          The judge found that, based on the terms of
          the will, it was clear that Hall must pay the
          amount due on the mortgage. The judge also
          found that the testimony presented at trial
          showed that it was . . . Polak's intent that
          Hall pay the loan.

          The judge noted, however, that Hall would not
          be responsible for the $10,000 that . . . Polak

                                4                           A-0302-16T4
           kept from the loan proceeds, and she would be
           given credit for . . . Polak's payments of
           $922.93 per month on the loan, because . . .
           Polak would have otherwise paid Hall monthly
           rental payments of $1,000.    The judge also
           observed that his interpretation of the will
           was consistent with . . . Polak's probable
           intention.

           Thereafter, the court entered an order dated
           April 7, 2014, which provided that a judgment
           would be entered against Hall in the amount
           of $44,570.70, which was determined to be the
           amount remaining due on the loan. The court's
           order notes that $79,727.05 remained in
           counsel's trust account, and that amount was
           to be divided equally between Reid, Pean and
           Hall.

           The order states, however, that Hall's share
           would not be paid to her but would be a credit
           against the monies the court had ordered her
           to pay the estate. The order further provided
           for the distribution of the $44,570.70 that
           Hall had to pay the estate. In addition, the
           order states that, since there were no funds
           remaining for any distribution pursuant to the
           residuary clause of Polak's will, Hall would
           not be paid an executrix commission.

           [In re Estate of Bertha Polak, slip op. at 5-
           7.]

     After reciting the judge's detailed findings, we considered

the same arguments Hall has again raised here, and we affirmed the

judge's   determination.   Id.   at   10.   Furthermore,    as    stated

previously, the judge's written findings were more than sufficient

to justify the issuance of the wage execution order.

Daniel Filmus, Argentine secretary of Malvinas, Antarctica and south Atlantic, claimed Brexit could result in European support for the UK’s claim of sovereignty rowed back.

Mr Filmus insisted this could open a new window of opportunity for his government to stake its claim over the territory.

Asked if Brexit could boost Argentina’s Falklands bid, he said: ‘It could be, yes. The effects are still unknown, but it is clear.’

Roulement Infantry Company(RIC) embarking onto HMS Forth as part of Ex Cape Bayonet in the Faalkland Islands.

The Argentine diplomat criticised the UK for missing a deadline – set by the UN - to handover the Chagos archipelago back to Mauritius.

‘Seven months have passed and it has not done so,’ he added. ‘The UK ignores what the assembly says but Brexit changes European politics.’

His comments come as a Royal Navy warship from Portsmouth began her first stint of patrols around the Falklands.

The navy has had a constant presence in the region since it was invaded by Argentina on April 2, 1982.

HMS Forth, one of Britain’s newest offshore patrol ships, is forward-deployed in the region, having taken over from HMS Clyde, which returned to Portsmouth in December after 12 years protecting the territory.

And in one of her first duties, the men and women of Forth have been showing off their ship to British soldiers protecting the Falklands.

More than 40 Grenadier Guards were given a tour of the ship – which is larger and more powerful than Clyde and has dedicated mess for up to 51 troops.

The Grenadier Guards made full use of the ship’s improved facilities as part of Cape Bayonet, an exercise built to test the army and navy’s ability to work together to protect the islands or carry out relief and rescue missions.

Later, Forth’s crew were visited by six Royal Marine veterans from Naval Party 8901, the detachment of Commandos forced to surrender when overwhelmed by Argentine invaders.

Directions

Mix the vinegar and mirin in with the rice evenly. Toss with a fork or wooden spoon to cool the rice. Do not stir. When rice is cool or room temperature it is ready to use. Hot rice will cause the nori to fall apart easily.

Place a sheet of nori on a sushi mat with the smooth, shiny side facing down on the mat. Spread approximately 1/2 cup of cooked rice on the sheet, covering the width and length of the sheet, leaving only about 1/2 inch of the sheet closest to you uncovered. Moisten your fingers with a little cold water and press the rice down firmly against the nori. Sprinkle roasted sesame seeds on the rice, lightly coating it. Place a sheet of plastic wrap or a damp towel on a sushi mat. Press firmly with your fingers or a wooden spoon to press the sesame seeds into the rice slightly. Turn the rice covered sheet of nori upside down and place on the plastic wrap or damp towel (rice facing down), with the uncovered part of the nori closest to you. About two inches from the bottom of the nori, place one green onion lengthwise on the nori. Then place 2 to 3 slice of avocado lengthwise next to the onion. Sprinkle Eden Shake and ginger pickles over the green onion and avocado. Roll the sushi up in jelly roll fashion, pressing firmly with your fingers and thumbs. Continue rolling until completely rolled. Wrap the sushi mat completely around the roll and squeeze very gently. Remove the sushi mat and plastic wrap or towel from the roll. Set aside. Repeat the above steps until all ingredients have been used. You should now have 8 small California rolls.

With a sharp, moistened knife, cut each roll in half. You will need to moisten the knife each time you slice the roll to prevent rice from sticking to it. Cut each half in half and then each quarter in half. Repeat until all rolls have been coated in seeds and sliced into 8 equal size pieces. Arrange the sushi on a platter.

Any of your favorite toppings may be used to fill the roll in place of or in combination with the above. Other Eden fillings such as Eden Umeboshi Plums or Paste, thin strips of Eden Pickled Daikon Radish or a dip sauce may be made with Eden Wasabi and any Eden Shoyu Soy Sauce.

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 And the earth was waste and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep: and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. 3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. 4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. 5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, one day. 6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. 7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. 8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, a second day. 9 And God said, Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. 10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good. 11 And God said, Let the earth put forth grass, herbs yielding seed, and fruit-trees bearing fruit after their kind, wherein is the seed thereof, upon the earth: and it was so. 12 And the earth brought forth grass, herbs yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit, wherein is the seed thereof, after their kind: and God saw that it was good. 13 And there was evening and there was morning, a third day. 14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years: 15and let them be for lights in the firmament of heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. 16 And God made the two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. 17 And God set them in the firmament of heaven to give light upon the earth, 18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. 19 And there was evening and there was morning, a fourth day. 20 And God said, Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. 21 And God created the great sea-monsters, and every living creature that moveth, wherewith the waters swarmed, after their kind, and every winged bird after its kind: and God saw that it was good. 22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth. 23 And there was evening and there was morning, a fifth day. 24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind, cattle, and creeping things, and beasts of the earth after their kind: and it was so. 25 And God made the beasts of the earth after their kind, and the cattle after their kind, and everything that creepeth upon the ground after its kind: and God saw that it was good. 26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the heavens, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 And God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28 And God blessed them: and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the heavens, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. 29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb yielding seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for food: 30 and to every beast of the earth, and to every bird of the heavens, and to everything that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for food: and it was so. 31 And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.
