Small acorns, etc.īut anyway, I'm rambling. Who among you can remember a time when a Yahoo (or Aminet) search for treasures like "DOC Megademo", "Vortex 42", "SAE Amazing Tunes", "Spreadpoint", "Rink-a-Dink", "Budbrain" or (er.) "Triangle - The Big A" would yield no results? We eventually put that right (apart from the last one.) But we never imagined that, in just a few short years, virtually everything ever made for the Amiga would eventually be unearthed and made so easy to access. We were acting as curators, with an eye on the classic. Little was available then but, quite quickly, our collection grew. Back in 1997 when I started the sometimes-remembered Lazarus website, at the dawn of Amiga emulation, we were hoping to somehow source and gather together the few hundred items we believed would ease the pain for the average faithful Amigan, now reluctantly forced to jump ship. It's all too easy to forget, thanks to the efforts of projects like TOSEC over the years, just how much we take for granted the hundreds of thousands of Amiga-related artefacts we've so readily obtained, only to store them somewhere on our external hard-drives, having to wade through duplicates and unfamiliar names just to get to the important bits each time we fancy a fix of nostalgia. What an authentic and respectful collection of Amiga essentials :-) It's nice to see a properly curated selection that brings back genuine memories! 4/18/2023 0 Comments Big business setlistWedding gigs can be like this for example, but also other celebrations usually are less or more like this. Over 45min gigs are usually some types of background music rather than shows that people come to see and they usually require multiple sets with a little half time in between. You don’t really have time to build up anything, instead, you should just keep the energy high during the whole gig. In situations like this, you really want to play only the very best songs you have in order to give the audience a great experience but making those carefully selected tunes fit together in the given time limit can be tricky. That leaves you with a maximum of 20min of actually playing your songs and if we divide 20min with 3min we find out that you have time for roughly 6 songs and a bit leftover time. For example, let’s say you get 25min of stage time including setup and breakdown. Sometimes it can cause problems if you have very little time on the stage (under 30min) to play and you have to try and make a compelling setlist with so few songs. You can’t pick songs by their length alone, they need to fit nicely together to make a professional sounding and cohesive piece of art. While it doesn’t take more math skills it does take some more thinking and planning. Well, it’s not always this simple, I’m afraid. Just find out how long you are supposed to play and choose enough songs to fill that time. Shorter and longer showsĬalculating the right number of songs for the gig, fortunately, doesn’t require a degree in math. In the next part below I will go through the system of calculating the number of songs you need for sets that are of different length and some important variables you need to know. Not all gigs are indeed 45min long but you can use that estimate as an easy reference for longer or shorter gigs and just subtract or add songs accordingly. The number of songs can vary though because some songs are longer and that should be taken into account while making a setlist. There are a couple of really important things you need to take into account but luckily, it isn’t rocket science.Īn average setlist consists of roughly 15 three-minute-long songs making the show 45min long altogether. If you are new to playing music live you are probably wondering how many songs you should take into your setlist for your first gigs. 4/18/2023 0 Comments Airport madness 3 fullIt was like I really got to know him and that was when it seemed like, 'Oh, right, this is the person.' 'We had a whole, like, he was teaching me to dance,' Natalie added. When reminiscing about falling in love with her current husband on set during an interview on Sirius XM Town Hall, the star explained, 'I met my husband on it, so I think I was in, like, dreamland, so it seemed pretty fun the whole time.' While the actress played the leading role, Benjamin was hired as the main choreographer. The couple first crossed paths in 2009 while filming the Oscar winning movie, Black Swan. Natalie and Benjamin recently celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary last month in August after tying the knot in 2012. Whilst the graphics are nothing to shout home about, this is a great game for when you just want something relatively simple, casual yet challenging and thus not boring, and lightweight in terms of resources consumed on your computer (so it doesn't melt your hardware or drain your battery within 15 minutes if you're on a laptop).Long-lasting: The two stars first met on the Oscar winning movie called, Black Swan, and began dating shortly after seen together in July in London There are some good scenarios as well to spice things up a-bit. But with an increasing number of planes, increasing number of runways to manage, and emergencies that can take place, it can become quite challenging to avoid collisions and ensure that planes leave/depart the airport in a reasonable amount of time. You can delay planes delaying, you can adjust their speed, you can direct planes to taxi on the runway and wait before take-off, and so on.quite basic stuff, and there isn't a whole host of things that you can do. You act as an air traffic controller, directing which planes can land and which can depart an airport. Synopsis: 7/10 one of those games which is quick to learn but hard to master. We've worked hard to compare our game to that of 3D simulations that are currently for sale elsewhere, and what we feel everybody wants is a game that's easy to play, is lots of fun, and highly addictive. Part of what makes Airport Madness fun is the high speed at which things happen. Aircraft actually raise their nose during the takeoff rotation and during the landing flare, just like they do in real life. Later in May 2016, we will make this game available for Steam, iOS and Android.Īircraft flight characteristics are highly realistic. Initially, this game is only available for PC and Mac, via direct download from our website. We are using real earth data for mountains and surrounding landscape, as seen in the images, but our airports were built by us from scratch. Part of the challenge is making it look fun, but we're not necessarily needing to have highly realistic terrain. In this version, we include two radar screens instead of just one: A radar screen for airborne traffic and one for ground traffic.įor seven years, we've been telling game players that Airport Madness is a game, not a simulation. There is a choice of four different view perspectives: tower view, runway view, sky view, and pilot view. 3D glasses are not required! The game is now rendered in three dimensions, as opposed to our earlier "sky view" versions. Although this game is visually quite different, it has the very same game play mechanic as previous versions.ĭon't let the name fool you. Each airport will offer two separate traffic patterns, which is a big step upwards from our previous versions of Airport Madness. This edition offers four airports that include Jamaica, Toronto Island, LaGuardia and Rocky Mountain Metropolitan. Big Fat Simulations proudly offers you the seventh version of Airport Madness, a 3-dimensional version of the game you already know, offering players a control tower perspective. 4/17/2023 0 Comments Void bastards destroy rifts* The MC will be figuring out the exact nature and limits of the Celestial Forge as he goes, because he's not getting an instruction manual for it. * The MC may enter the Celestial Forge interface at any time he has enough CP to pick something new. As far as the MC's point of view is concerned, he's drawing blind bag picks. Note that this is the author getting a veto. So I will fudge, but only in the less munchkiny direction. However, the author may freely choose to veto the power rolled in favor of anything less powerful/broken than that was just rolled, in case something comes up that was excessively story-breaking. * (revised) Powers will be random-rolled. The MC's very first purchase may be made on credit. Now it's time for the actual rules mechanics. Įspecially since this is also the post that the MC's character sheet will be in, so it's not like you could follow along with what's going on in the story if you weren't regularly checking here anyway. You are expected to have read this post before trying to read the story. It's labelled "Introduction" in the threadmarks. If you even try saying 'But I didn't know you were upset about any of this!', I won't believe you. If it does, well, I'm doing the best I can. The random-roll nature of Celestial Forge as well as the wide diversity of powers available means that not only can an author not plan ahead except in very broad outline, but their plans will be subject to change without notice. I will not be able to plan too far ahead. This shit is hard enough, don't make it harder. And I'm sure we can all agree, we don't live in that world. If it was easy to do, there would never be any unfinished or mediocre fanfics ever posted on SB. I request that anyone unclear on this point go look at the CrW specific rules post sticked in CrW.Ĭreative writing is difficult, complicated, and very sensitive to the emotional state of the author. So yeah, I will discuss things if I feel like it, but once I make a firm decision and say 'Nope, and stop asking', then stop asking. Over the past few months I've seen several good stories die or languish in long hiatus because readers got so stuck on demanding what they wanted that the author went 'Well, thanks for the buzzkill!' and lost all urge to write. Full stop.ĭiscussion is one thing, and commentary is one thing, but once an author says 'No, I understand your objection but I'm still not going to rewrite my story because you don't like that one plot element', at this point commentary should stop. If I say "no", that doesn't mean "keep asking me". well, I just told you, right here and now, so you still shouldn't be surprised. I am not every other author, and anybody familiar with my stuff knows that I actually do remember to fire Chekhov's Gun most of the time. No, that still doesn't make me any more patient with being nagged to update faster or spoil my own plot before I want to. Yes, I am aware that SB readers have been burned by other authors before who have promised to explain things in due time and never did. There is a word for a story that deliberately eliminates all possible elements of mystery and surprise by fully explaining everything immediately after it first appears. Because it's probably something that's being held back for a dramatically appropriate reveal later. If something happens that isn't immediately explained, just wait a little while. So, just getting that out on the table first thing.Ĭhekhov's Gun is a valid writing tool. I might even have to straight up retcon punch shit that's excessively interfering with the plot that I would most enjoy writing. So in order to turn it into an actual living breathing world that the MC and the rest of the cast will live, love, laugh, and die in, I am gonna have to make shit up to fill in the blanks. The game is decades old and wasn't exactly a model of tight worldbuilding even at the time it came out. Yes, even if it was an honest mistake and something not deliberately intended. If something is not 100.00% lore-compliant to Rifts canon, then the world will not come to an end. This means that nobody will award you a medal for lore nitpicks. The character sheet will be at the bottom of this post.īut before we go any further, I would like to make a few things plain so that we hopefully don't have the same problems in this thread that happened in several of my prior story threads.Īll fanfiction uses fanon, for about the same reason that all oceans contain water. I only recently discovered the existence of the writing experiment known as the Celestial Forge (v3), previously used in such fics as "Brockton's Celestial Forge" and "Doomsday Prevention Toolkit". I know it's been a thing for a while, but I miss things sometimes. 4/17/2023 0 Comments E xs company of heroes 2For reference 965 chipsets used ICH8 and P35 uses the ICH9 series of southbridge chips. For the technically inclined the P31 chipset is composed of the P35 northbridge MCH chip with the 975X’s ICH7 southbridge chip for an interesting combination of old and new. Intel is not known for cheaply pricing their venerable chipsets, so P31 is unique in that it is a hybrid of the much acclaimed P35 and old stalwart 975X chipsets. P31 hardware is targeted directly for the budget consumer and accordingly can be found for just under $80 in several flavors from various motherboard makers. To shed some light on a confusing situation Gigabyte has sent us one of their P31 motherboards for review. Not to mention not even the unreleased P45, G45, and X48 chipsets will be compatible with future Nehalem processors, but we digress. While plenty of choices are a good thing confusing the consumer is usually not. That doesn’t sound bad, unless looking for an Intel chipset with integrated graphics onboard in which case you get to decide between G31, G33, G35, and later G45 which will be a significant upgrade from previous Gxx chipsets. For this review we are going to take a look at the relatively unknown P31 chipset.įor the mainstream market there is P35, X38, soon to be P45 and X48 respectively. While it won’t help ward off cold feet from the dizzying array of alternatives currently on the market, it will address one key area where current model Intel chipsets have been shy to enter, the budget market. Just in time for the winter season Intel adopted an alphabet soup strategy with their current chipsets. Is this the perfect low price Intel chipset motherboard? Read on to find out… The P31-DS3L offers all the performance and overclocking one would expect from a full board but without all the price, and still does not skimp on features. The Gigabyte P31-DS3L motherboard is a relatively unknown budget motherboard, but not just any budget motherboard. 4/17/2023 0 Comments Esa moon villageThis means it’s the perfect place to hide valuable, sunlight-sensitive volatile resources like water-ice. In addition to copious amounts of available sunlight, at about 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) deep, the floor of Shackleton Crater is constantly cloaked in shadow. In particular, they want to target somewhere close to the rim of Shackleton Crater, which boasts areas that are almost perpetually bathed in sunlight - ideal because it provides an ample source of energy via the tried-and-true technology of solar panels. "The goal of the organization is to go beyond space, to go beyond the stars," said Reibaldi, "because this is a step for all humanity, and nobody needs to be left out."Ĭurrently, stakeholders plan to build Moon Village near the lunar south pole. Instead, Moon Village aims to be a collaboratively designed and expandable permanent lunar settlement that can serve as: an innovative research hub for industry and academia alike an otherworldly destination for commercial travelers and a proving ground for future crewed bases on Mars and beyond. Moon Village is not just going to be another International Space Station on the Moon, said Senior Space Policy Adviser and President of the Moon Village Association, Giuseppe Reibaldi, in a presentation. Working closely with the ESA, the purpose of MVA is to foster collaboration between nations and organizations spread all over the world - especially in developing countries - to help bring visions of a permanent lunar base to fruition. Though Woerner's comments gave the Moon Village concept its initial momentum, since then, much of the cooperation and planning for the lunar outpost has been spearheaded by the Moon Village Association (MVA), a non-governmental organization with about 150 members spread across nearly three dozen countries. "This Moon Village should mean partners from all over the world contributing to this community with robotic and astronaut missions and support communication satellites." "A Moon Village shouldn't just mean some houses, a church, and a town hall," he said at the time. The project, dubbed Moon Village, first made headlines back in 2015, when the newly appointed Director General of the ESA, Johann-Dietrich Woerner, told the BBC about his vision. 4/17/2023 0 Comments Swimmers itch causeAnother control method being used in our service area is Merganser Control Programs. The incidents of swimmer's itch were greatly reduced compared to pre-treatment levels. See a summary of the Higgins Lake 2015-2017 data ( ) for more details.Ĭontrol programs utilizing this method have been carried out on several lakes. The lake-wide snail infection levels have dropped more than 98% over that time period, and not surprisingly, both the number and severity of reported swimmer’s itch cases have also dramatically declined. biologists, they have trapped and relocated all resident common mergansers off Higgins Lake (Roscommon County, MI) since the summer 2015. Curt Blankespoor of the University of Michigan Biological Station. Harvey has passed the swimmer’s itch control torch to his son, Dr. His method involves removing the resident summer ducks, most often common mergansers, from a lake and relocating them to one of the Great Lakes where the snail host is absent. Harvey Blankespoor of Hope College in Holland, Michigan in the 1980s. One effective approach to controlling swimmer’s itch was developed by Dr. Before taking any of these drugs, however, consult your physician or dermatologist for advice. Antihistamines can be used to help relieve the itching while topical steroid creams may help to reduce the swelling. Over-the-counter drugs are available to reduce the symptoms of swimmer's itch. Swimmer's itch, although extremely annoying and uncomfortable, is not a communicable or fatal condition. For swimmer's itch, itching is limited to points of cercarial entry and will not spread or develop into water blisters. Chigger bites are usually located at points where clothing contacts the skin such as wrists, waist, ankles, etc. The itchy, reddened, and raised areas are sometimes confused with bites from chiggers or mosquitoes and the symptoms may be misdiagnosed as those resulting from poison ivy or stinging nettles. Usually the reddened areas reach their largest size after approximately 24 hours. Many suffering from swimmer’s itch experience the most severe itching early in the morning. Symptoms include intermittent periods of itching that will continue for several days. At each point of entry a small red spot may appear and begin to itch. This may occur either while swimming or immediately after leaving the water. Those who are sensitive may feel a dull, prickly sensation as the larvae burrow into the skin. Some who are exposed to the larvae never develop the itch. Not all people are sensitive to swimmer’s itch. 4/17/2023 0 Comments Gif resizeOnce you’re happy with your selection, simply press Enter on your keyboard to finalize it. If you’d like to crop a selection of your GIF, you can do so by grabbing your Cropping tool (shift + C) and clicking and dragging a selection over the area you’d like to crop. You can make the following transformations to your GIF… You can flip and/or rotate your animated GIF by going to Image -> Transform, and selecting whichever transformation you’d like to make. The change will be applied to all of the layers and not just the active layer. To resize your GIF, simply go to Image -> Scale Image.įrom there you can manually input what you’d like the size of the image to be in terms of numeric value. Scaling down your GIF would be a great way to reduce GIF file size with GIMP. That said, the following are all ways in which you can edit an animated GIF with GIMP… Resize To add text with GIMP would mean having to copy and paste that text onto each individual layer, which would be a painstakingly redundant task. If you want to add text to a GIF, for example, you’d be much better off using a video editor (like Blender) instead. This makes GIMP a very limited tool for editing GIFs. If you want to edit an animated GIF with GIMP, the only edits you can make are edits that are applied to the entire image and not just a single layer. Since the animation consists of a series of layers, any changes you make will only be applied to the single layer that you currently have activated, and since that layer only represents a single frame of the animated GIF, it will only be applied to that single frame. If you’re opening a large file and you don’t have the computing power, it could possibly cause your computer to freeze. Even GIFs that are only a few seconds long can mean several hundred layers, so keep that in mind whenever opening a GIF with GIMP. Bear in mind that because of the amount of images/layers being generated, this is a very CPU-intensive process. 4/17/2023 0 Comments Interrupted aortic archYour caregivers will advise you as the pregnancy progresses. You may be asked to monitor your baby’s movements throughout the day. Your caregiver will probably order serial ultrasound scans, to watch carefully to assess whether the IAA is affecting your baby’s growth and well-being. What are the things to watch for during the pregnancy? Your caregivers will thoroughly examine your baby’s heart and other organs to get the most complete picture of his/her anatomy, and to consult with you to work out a care plan that best suits your individual case. You may also meet with specialists in pediatric heart surgery before delivery, to consult with you regarding the best way to manage your baby’s birth and care in the newborn nursery. Those specialized ultrasounds are called fetal echocardiography. They can monitor your baby’s progress with ultrasound scans focused on the fetal heart and the blood vessels surrounding it. In addition, your caregiver may refer you to specialists in fetal heart problems, such as a maternal-fetal medicine specialist and/or a pediatric cardiologist. This can provide essential information regarding your individual case. Your caregiver may refer you for genetic counseling and genetic testing. In many cases, however, no genetic cause is found. The most common is DiGeorge syndrome, which is caused by a deletion of a small portion of the chromosome number 22, one of the 23 pairs of chromosomes that store our genetic information. There seems to be a genetic component to IAA in some cases. Other congenital heart defects, as well as other malformations, may also occur together with IAA.ĭuring the embryonic period (the first weeks of life in the womb), as the complex anatomy of the heart and blood vessels is developing, IAA seems to occur from a failure of earlier small arches to grow and merge properly. A VSD allows blood to cross between the two ventricles of the heart, causing oxygen-rich blood to mix with the oxygen-poor blood that is pumped by the right ventricle to the lungs. VSD’s are quite common, in fact they are the most common form of heart defect at birth. The right and left ventricles of the heart are separated by a wall of muscle called the ventricular septum a hole in this wall is called a VSD. Many fetuses with IAA also have another heart defect, called a ventricular septal defect or VSD. (Kindly see the figure, below.) The upper portion of the aorta still supplies the head and arms, but the flow to the lower body and legs is supplied by blood flowing from the pulmonary artery through a special fetal vessel and then into the Descending Aorta. Three variations of this problem exist, according to the place of the interruption. In Interrupted Aortic Arch (IAA), the aorta is divided somewhere along the arch into separate blood vessels. In most people, three blood vessels branch out of the aortic arch to supply the head and brain and the arms with oxygen-rich blood. The part of the aorta below the arch is called the Descending Aorta, it supplies the lower body and legs. The Aorta runs upward toward the head then turns downward toward the body, to form the Aortic Arch. The left ventricle pumps blood rich in oxygen through the Aorta to the body and brain, while the right ventricle pumps oxygen-poor blood out through the Pulmonary Artery to the lungs. The ventricles are the heart’s pumping chambers blood from the heart flows into the Great Arteries, the Aorta and the Pulmonary Artery. Our hearts are comprised of four chambers, two upper chambers, the right atrium and left atrium, and two lower chambers, the right and left ventricles. Interrupted Aortic Arch (IAA) is a rare birth defect of the heart. What is an interrupted Aortic Arch (IAA)? This leaflet is to help you understand what Interrupted aortic arch is, what tests you need and the implication of having been diagnosed with Interrupted aortic arch for your baby and your family.
