There are a large number of example preferences shown in the preference.xml example. You should just set up a new folder call it xml and the create preference.xml and save it there.

Her role on Outer Banks is one of the last times the actress brought her talent to the screen. They’re the keepers of our history, the ones who choose what history shall be passed on to the next generation, and what’s better left in the past.

We learn, as Pope does, that through her line he is a direct descendant of Tanny whose rich and tragic history has led to more than one treasure hunt. ![]() To do this, Pope visits an assisted living community where his meemaw lives, and that is how Carol Sutton is introduced to the Outer Banks audience.

He pointed to features like shared save games and cross-system Xbox Live profiles as potential benefits of Microsoft's investment in both platforms.Īccording to Spencer, Microsoft's unique position in both the PC and console markets affords the company opportunities to blur the line between the two platforms. Spencer went on to say that "we're gonna make the absolute best TV gaming console experience we possibly can, and if you decide that you want a PC gaming rig and to have an Xbox One, the fact that Microsoft has a presence in both of those places is gonna make your life better."

In 1611, the new British state headed by King James I issued its translation of the complete Bible, "newly translated out of the original tongues, and with the former translations diligently compared and revised. How could we let such an epochal moment pass without proper notice? It is scarcely too much to say that the King James Bible represents a critical foundation of Protestant Christianity in the English-speaking world, and the book's influence ranges deep into other traditions. To commemorate the event, Baylor University recently played host to a remarkable international conference on "The King James Bible and the World it Made, 1611-2011."
