Entwined with you kindle2/28/2023 ![]() The ride from Gideon’s Fifth Avenue penthouse to my apartment on the Upper West Side was a short one, but somehow it felt like an eternity. I sat back, my arms around my waist, rocking. He waved us through the intersection just before the light changed. Even our therapist could be ethically and legally bound to break our confidence.Ī burly, neon-vested traffic cop appeared and urged the bus into its lane with an authoritative white-gloved hand and a holler that meant business. I wanted desperately to talk about it, to get help working it out in my head, but I’d never be able to tell anyone. I hated the thought of having to hold back what Gideon had done for me. I was suddenly struck with the knowledge that I would have to keep a dreadful secret from my best friend.Ĭary was my touchstone, my voice of reason, my favorite shoulder to lean on–and a brother to me in every way that mattered. His dark brown hair was sexily mussed and his emerald eyes were bright with mischief. ![]() He lounged on his side, bare-chested and barefooted, his jeans unbuttoned to show both the waistband of his underwear and the sleek lines of his ripped abs. The taxi driver was hitting his horn repeatedly, as if that would clear the way. Cary Taylor’s lips had a come-hither curve and his long, lean frame was blocking the intersection. Through the windshield, I saw my roommate’s million-dollar smile flashing at me from the billboard on the side of a bus. The blare of a horn snapped me back to the present. I needed him like I needed my heart to beat, and he’d put himself in great jeopardy, risking everything–for me. From the moment I first saw him–saw through his stunning and impossibly gorgeous exterior to the dark and dangerous man inside–I’d felt the pull that came from finding the other half of myself. Just thinking of his name sent a heated flare of longing through my tightly strung body. I was sticky with sweat from an intense Krav Maga class, and my mind was spinning with thoughts of what the man I loved had done. ![]() ![]() Whenever I made the mistake of paying attention, I’d find my right foot pushing hard into the floorboard, my body instinctively trying to hit the brakes.īut for once, I didn’t need any distractions. To save my sanity, I’d learned to focus on the screen of my smartphone instead of the cars rushing by only inches away. Fearless to a fault, they sped and swerved through crowded streets with unnatural calm. ![]() Illuminations time2/28/2023 ![]() ![]() It does not store any personal data.Leverage global real-time visibility to architect security segmentation The cookie is set by the GDPR Cookie Consent plugin and is used to store whether or not user has consented to the use of cookies.

The Blackpool Illuminations have become more and more popular over the years and this most famous of Blackpool attractions is frequently referred to as the ‘Greatest Free Show on Earth’. A new scheme, Friends of the Illuminations, has been introduced with the hope to introduce education and interaction with the display in a bid to become a worldwide tourist attraction.Īt a time when the rest of the UK is closing down after the summer months, Blackpool is coming alive with light and colours lighting up the autumn nights. Over the years the illuminative display has expanded into the town and there are a number of events taking place during the festival including charity events, firework displays, and musical gigs to help celebrate the occasion. The Blackpool Illuminations approximately cost £2.4 million to stage each year. In recent years, the Blackpool Illuminations have been using low voltage neon lamps, micro processor controls and wind turbines in a bid to help save energy and money. Over 65,000 hours of work are put in to arranging the spectacular display each year. There are 45 members of staff, including artists, designers, electricians, joiners, engineers, and mechanics, who work all year round to prepare for the Blackpool Illuminations. ![]() They include: Shirley Bassey, the Bee Gees, Westlife, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Terry Wogan, Status Quo, Ken Dodd, Tom Baker, Frank Bruno, Jeremy Clarkson, and Chris de Burgh.Īt the heart of the illuminations is Blackpool Tower, which is adorned with thousands of flickering lamp bulbs. Hundreds of thousands of visitors come to witness the impressive display each year and many celebrities have been given the honour of switching on the lights over the years. Over the course of the whole festival, more than one million lamps of different shapes and sizes will play their part in the illuminations. ![]() Over 400,000 lamps and 74 miles of cables and wires are used for the six mile long promenade illuminative display. The Blackpool Illuminations run for sixty-six days from the end of August/ early September to November each year. The only times that the Blackpool Illuminations have ever been cancelled were during the First and Second World Wars. This has since become a regular event which takes place every year at the same time. ![]() Over 10,000 bulbs were used in the show and the visitors were so impressed they persuaded the council to have a light display again the following year. To celebrate the opening of the section, a display of lights was used to decorate the long promenade. The next significant event was in 1912 when Princess Louise arrived to open the new section of the promenade. In 1879 at least 70,000 visitors flocked to Blackpool’s promenade to witness the ‘switching on’ of the UK’s first electric streetlights (eight arc lamps). Blackpool Illuminations is a festival which takes place each year during the autumn months, lighting up the town and dark skies with an array of magical colours and displays. ![]() Lunarcell for photoshop2/28/2023 ![]() I think the simplest solution to my problem would be to edit the shader so as to get rid of the "Dark Side of the planet effect". Autoupdate is set to true, but like I said, I have to manually refresh for it to work (just changing the layer from Default to Planet does not work). The planet is displayed properly if I manually hit refresh after changing the layer (Default -> Planet in the editor while the game is running). ![]() I set the layer to "Planet" but in-game, it is set on "Default". F3D Sun component does not save my layer setting when exiting my scene in edit mode. The other side of the planet is displayed correctly. Result = Planet appears white (ambient light). Have a F3D Sun component on my camera, directly looking at the planet. Instantiate a planet (prefab) with the F3D Planet script on it (no orbit). I am trying to achieve a "Endless Space" result, with planet fully visible from camera view, rotating on themselves. I tried putting a F3D Planet and F3D Sun component but it just does not work with my setup. My planets have a dark side that I'd like to get rid off. Unfortunately, I just cannot get them to work in my project because of the issue described in posts #146 and #149. I recently bought your pack and I must say the planets look great. Also make sure you have soft particles feature on, since rings use it to fade themself at the quad vs sphere intersections. The sun coronas should stand out so the rings cover the surface, and its mainly up to you how to position them. When its done and everything is aligned, you can use the transform scale on the parent to scale the whole thing at once. This allows for preicse alignment of the mesh. The atmosphere has a material parameter that sets the vertex offset. It should stand out a bit, just enough to avoid visible artifacts. First goes the planet surface, then you can tweak the atmosphere scale. In the end you can ignore all the issues with the examples and go ahead with modifying the import scale of the planet's mesh to set it to the desired size, matching your project scale. Try playing with the import scale, and see if that helps the example scene.ģ. You can try to create a fresh project and import the package again to see if it makes any difference.Ģ. With that said, there are different ways of approaching this:ġ. ![]() Also I haven't seen anyone reporting similar scale issues before. ![]() This is very strange and I am not sure why this is happening. ![]() Magna graecia rome2/28/2023 ![]() ![]() On the other hand, luxurious ex-votos from the extended Greek world were set up in the panhellenic sanctuaries of the motherland (metropolis), such as of Delphi and Olympia… ![]() Their influence extended beyond the narrow local bounds and the cults were spread to new regions.įor the sanctuary of Delphi in particular, its active participation in the colonies’ founding established it in the people’s mindset as “cosmos” center. This is explained by the awareness of the many dangers the colonists would have to confront.Ĭoncurrently the sanctuaries too, reaped significant benefits from the colonies’ founding. Many of the oracles pertaining to colonies were ambivalent, that is, in the form of a riddle which the “oikistes” had to uncode and solve. The “oikistes” (ΟΙΚΙΣΤΗΣ=leader of the “advance party” of colonists) was a person of high social status who undertook to implement whatever the god prophesied, establishing not only the political istitutions but also the cults of the colony. These oracles were a guarantee of the safe outcome of the operation and boosted the colonists’ moral. Oracles on the founding of colonies are known to have been delivered by the sanctuaries of Dodone, Zeus-Ammon in Libya and of Apollo at Delphi, which undoubtedly held precedence. ![]() The sanctuaries, to which bypassing seafarers and merchants came as pilgrims, were centres where such information was collected and exchanged. The founding of a colonie presupposed knowledge of the topography and the resources of the regions earmarked to receive the colonists. Italy, Crimea, Marseille), reflect the important role of the major panhellenic sanctuaries in the colonisation process. The foundation myths of the Greek colonies around the Mediterranean and Black sea (especialy in modern day S. The “cultural diffusion” experienced at the end of the Mycenaean Age actually helped Greece transition from the Archaic to the Classical period, when they emerged as a polycentric seafaring civilization – one with a rich Pan-Hellenic religion that included Egyptian, Semitic, Iranian and Indian influences. Greece actually emerged from this tumultuous period a more advanced civilization – in fact, they enjoyed the most rapid advancement of any civilization in history, accelerating their developments in arts, sciences, language and maritime rule. But despite their political defeat, much of Hellenic culture persisted. Greece experienced a massive population shift and a decline in arts and craft. The Mycenaean Age was abandoned, its palatial cities burned, and its literacy lost. Initially, contact with the more advanced culture of the Phoenician raiders decimated Greek rule, destroyed their cities and plunged them into a Dark Ages for nearly five hundred years. The Invasion of the Sea Peoples, as it is sometimes called, had both positive and negative effects on Greek culture. ![]() Absolute lojack change computer2/27/2023 ![]() The Computrace program injects itself into the autochk.exe file to receive commands and start up.Ĭomputrace, a feature that is unique to Computrace, allows you to control every aspect of your PC. The program will never be activated unless a Windows-based operating system is installed on the hard drive, even if it is enabled and activated by Absolute Software. It is impossible to use Computrace on Linux. If you enable or disable the BIOS module interface, the optional Computrace app will continue to use it. By clicking on it, you will be able to uninstall Computrace. Scroll down to the security screen as soon as you arrive at the BIOS. To disable Computrace from your laptop, enable it and click the F2 button to gain access to the BIOS. Certain files will not be removed if they are replaced with another file. You can also permanently disable it by going to your BIOS’s Security/Anti-Theft settings. If you disable Computrace, it will not be able to reactivate. Absolute has developed Slackware, a 64-bit Linux distribution. ![]() It is impossible for a user to interact with the built-in component on a Linux PC, rendering it invisible. How do I get rid of Computrace? Windows is the only operating system capable of being accessed for management purposes. If you are concerned about your privacy, then you may want to consider using Linux to get rid of Computrace. Once Linux is installed, Computrace will no longer be able to track the location of the computer or remotely activate the webcam and microphone.

The downside is that you need to leave your PC running 24/7, at least during the times when you want to have streaming access to your movie library. Plex indexes all of the media on your PC, and then streams it to mobile and connected devices alike-so you can watch movies on your smartphone or tablet while you’re on the go, or on set-top boxes like the Roku, PS3, and Xbox. Plex Plex is free software that gives you a slick interface for managing your media-streaming PC.Ī program like Plex offers the best of both worlds. The limitations aren’t terrible, but I think most people would be better off setting up a personal media server with free streaming software. What’s more, it takes time to upload a big batch of movies, and you won’t be able to stream them to set-top boxes. However, a free account on Dropbox or SugarSync nets you only a few gigabytes of space, so plan to pay a monthly fee for storage if you need lots of space. Using a cloud service affords you a built-in remote backup of your movie library and lets you stream videos via the service’s mobile app-a nice option when you’re traveling. You have a couple options at this point: You can upload everything to a remote-storage service like Dropbox or SugarSync, and then stream movies on demand to whatever devices support that service or you can turn your PC into a media server and effectively host your own “cloud.” ![]() Once you’ve liberated your movie library, you’ll want to make it available for viewing anytime, anywhere-not just on the PC that houses the files. Then remove that DVD from your PC and park it in storage somewhere-you won’t need it in the foreseeable future. Once HandBrake finishes doing its thing, play back the final product to confirm that it looks okay. If you plan to watch the movie mostly on mobile devices, select the formatting option that best matches what you have-or opt for Universal if you want something that can play just about anywhere. Click Start, and then be prepared to wait: The ripping and conversion process can take some time. HandBrake looks a little austere, but it offers myriad options for converting and formatting your movies for smartphones, tablets, HDTVs, and more.įinally, choose a preset for the conversion. Now select Browse, and choose a destination and filename for the video file you’re about to create-a file named with the film’s original title in the Windows Videos folder would be the obvious choice. If the runtime seems way too short, open the Title drop-down menu and look for an entry that has an appropriately movie-length runtime. When HandBrake has completed its preliminary work, the Source field should display the name of the movie, and the Title field should list something with a runtime that matches the movie’s length. ![]() After installing the program, you have to obtain a file called libdvdcss-2.dll, which you can download from this public archive site. It, too, converts DVDs, though it needs a little help to remove copy protection. You can buy a commercial ripper like DVDFab DVD Ripper ($50) or WinX DVD Ripper Platinum ($40), both of which circumvent most copy protection schemes and convert the discs to the mobile- or home-theater-friendly format of your choice.īut a free option works nearly as well: perennial favorite HandBrake. That said, you’ll need a DVD-ripping utility that can remove the Content Scrambling System (CSS) or similar built-in protections that prevent straight-up copying. Digiarty Software If you want the solace of having a tech support team to call in case of technical difficulties, you can buy decent DVD-ripping software like WinX DVD Ripper Platinum. Still, as long as you’re not sharing movies on BitTorrent or selling copies on the street, it qualifies as fair use-just as ripping CDs (which is technically legal) does. ![]() ![]() One quick caveat: Though the police won’t break your door down for ripping DVDs that you already own, the process does technically violate copyright law. In order for this to work, obviously, you must have access to a PC with a DVD drive. As with ripping CDs, you’ll copy the contents of a DVD to your computer, and then convert those contents to a cloud-friendly format. To turn a real-world DVD into a digital file that you can stream to the viewing platform of your choice, you have to rip it from the disc. ![]() Apollo gaia project2/27/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() The Mathematical Derivation The Graphical Simulatorįour Technical Working Notes: Variation in the Value of ESS Residual Uncertainty in the Value of ESS Up-date on some key Variables Confusion around the meaning of “Fast Feedbacks” Towards a Robust Value for Earth System Sensitivity ![]() The Forcing effects of change in CO2 Concentrationįeedback Dynamics and the Amplification of CO2 ForcingĮvaluation of Modelled Values of Climate Sensitivity Response of the Planetary Climate to Changes in Surface Temperature Temperature response to Changes in CO2 Concentration Sensitivity and the Carbon Budget Table of Contents Page No.īrief Introduction to the Apollo-Gaia Project My subject of “Sensitivity and the Carbon Budget” raises two of the most fundamental issues that determine our strategy, against which we must judge the effectiveness of our solutions, and in the light of which we can assess the appropriateness of our policy.

Word gil super spasce ship hide out2/27/2023 ![]() ![]() (In the early seasons, it seemed that Scoops would do anything for a big story, even as exposing Wordgirl’s identity as Becky. I was just more fond of his character development in the episodes during and after he learns Becky’s identity, plus a few before the reveal. I have nothing against Scoops’ character. (Still brings him cheese.) Not much interaction with the Botsford family unless they were a focus in episodes.īecky is also friends with Tobey in this au. She has a visitor clearance and does visits with her dad when she can. (Becky is like, “Sorry dad, but I can’t let you threaten the lives of innocent civilians.”) Since this happens rarely, Becky usually stays at her friends houses until her dad leaves prison. Incidents such as the plot to mind control all the city with bunny buttons and the cheesteroid do get Two Brains arrested. ![]() ![]() Becky does stand her ground if her dad, and the other villains, do something dangerous that affects the lives of the citizens. Captain Huggy Face is not happy when Wordgirl let’s her dad go, but he deals with it because she cares about her dad. Two Brains is an extremely tough villain to catch which raises his credibility as Fair City’s #1 villain when Wordgirl does this. Becky may do this sometimes for other villains depending on her or their mood. “Two Brains Quartet” still happens because police are there.). For crimes such as stealing money or turning artwork into cheese, Becky will stop her dad, but later act like he got away (if police are not around. If Two Brains just steals cheese from the grocery store, she may often ignore it (its just cheese and it can easily be replenished). That being said, she will let Two Brains escape after stoping the crimes depending on the severity. She loves her dad and does not like the idea of him not being home (the warehouse Becky’s living conditions their are like my version of the Becky Boxleitner au, just somewhat better due to her living their all her life.) She also does not like the idea of having to fight him, but has to in order to keep up appearances and not let anyone get suspicious and start suspecting her identity. Becky will not often take her dad to jail. They didn’t force the citizens to dislike Wordgirl, that was their choice.ĥ. She is not even mad at the villains who cause this. She still cares about the safety of the citizens, she just does not like it when they abandon their trust in her for no good reason. I am not including all citizens, just seems like a majority do this.) (Okay rant over.) Becky will be like, “if you guys don’t want me anymore then good luck.” She will intervene again just to keep the city from going into complete chaos. Sometimes, to me, it seems the villains have better appreciation for Wordgirl than the citizens. It always irks me how they will turn on Wordgirl easily and not often give a proper apology when they realize they were wrong. (I have always had a problem when a majority of the residents in Fair City act like gullible idiots. Basically she just becomes done when residents of Fair City act like morons who think they know better. As I said earlier, Becky in this au views heroism as a job she enjoys and doesn't take impolite backlash, constructive criticism yes. That being said, Becky will not take a passive stance and try hard to prove her innocence if the citizens suddenly began to take advantage of her heroism or if they turn on her such as with the evil duplicate or when Granny May framed her for crimes. He later regrets his decision.□□Here is an outline for how this au would go:Ĥ. Bob watches the interaction between Two Brains and Becky and decides that Two Brains would be a great person to stay with and raise Becky. He immediately begins to dote on her as a dad would, ex. Two Brains heart just melts□after hearing her call him daddy and looking into her innocent, alien, eyes. She is just a little kid who think that this new man holding her is her parent now. When Becky looks at Two Brains, she curiously calls him daddy. Two Brains is nervous at first because some random monkey just gave him a baby to hold□. Bob eats the cheese while Two Brains holds Becky. Two Brains may be a villain now but he is not heartless to not offer someone that is hungry food. Two Brains awkwardly hands some of his cheese to Bob. Two Brains has cheese with him and Bob is hungry. At this point, Bob has no idea that Two Brains is a villain. Bob, while carrying Becky, runs into Two Brains. This is around the time Steven first becomes Two Brains. After Becky and Bob crash land on earth, Bob carries Becky around for a bit and enters the city. ![]() AuthorWrite something about yourself. No need to be fancy, just an overview. ArchivesCategories |
