Sequel to riven6/30/2023 When Atrus returns to investigate, the brothers strand him in a D'ni cavern before they themselves are trapped by special "prison" books. The brothers grow greedy, and, after plundering their father's Ages, they trap Catherine on Riven. Atrus and Catherine marry and have two children, Sirrus and Achenar. Atrus realizes that his father is reckless and power-hungry, and with the help of Ti'ana and a young woman, Catherine, Atrus traps Gehn on his Age of Riven with no linking books. Ti'ana also cares for Gehn's son, Atrus, until Gehn arrives to teach Atrus the Art. Ti'ana raises Gehn until he runs away as a teenager, learning the D'ni Art of writing descriptive books. Aitrus sacrifices himself to save his wife and child, killing A'Gaeris while Ti'ana and Gehn escape to the surface as the D'ni civilization falls. Soon after, D'ni is ravaged by a plague created by a man named A'Gaeris. Learning the D'ni language, Anna becomes known as Ti'ana and marries a D'ni named Aitrus the couple have a son named Gehn. A young geologist from the surface, Anna, stumbled upon the D'ni civilization. The D'ni build a great city and thriving civilization in caverns. The D'ni / d ə ˈ n iː/ are an ancient race who used a special skill to create magical books that serve as portals to the worlds they describe, known as Ages. Myst 's story begins with the arrival of a people known as the D'ni on Earth, almost 10,000 years ago. By touching the animated panel, players are warped to the Age described. The video games' success has led to three published novels in addition to soundtracks, a comic series, and television and movie pitches.Ī linking book as seen in realMyst. Myst and its sequels were critical and commercial successes, selling more than twelve million copies the games drove sales of personal computers and CD-ROM drives as well as attracting casual gamers with its nonviolent, methodical gameplay. After Riven was released, Robyn left Cyan to pursue other projects, and Cyan began developing Uru developers Presto Studios and Ubisoft created Exile and Revelation before Cyan returned to complete the series with End of Ages. The name Myst came from Jules Verne's novel The Mysterious Island. Drawing on childhood stories, the brothers spent months designing the Ages players would investigate. The brothers developed Myst after producing award-winning games for children. Over the course of the series, Atrus writes a new Age for the D'ni survivors to live on, and players of the games set the course the civilization will follow. The player takes the role of an unnamed person referred to as the Stranger and assists Atrus by traveling to other Ages and solving puzzles. This practice of creating linking books was developed by an ancient civilization known as the D'ni, whose society crumbled after being ravaged by disease. Myst 's story concerns an explorer named Atrus who has the ability to write books that serve as links to other worlds, known as Ages. A spinoff featuring a multiplayer component, Uru: Ages Beyond Myst, was released in 2003 and followed by two expansion packs. The first sequel to Myst, Riven, was released in 1997 and was followed by three more direct sequels: Myst III: Exile in 2001, Myst IV: Revelation in 2004, and Myst V: End of Ages in 2005. The first game in the series, Myst, was released in 1993 by brothers Rand and Robyn Miller and their video game company Cyan, Inc. assuming I can find room for it in my monthly download cap, that is.Myst is a franchise centered on a series of adventure video games. I never played the original version of Riven, but for six bucks I might give it a look. Riven also has Game Center integration, but there doesn't appear to be an iPad-specific version of the app available. Riven is available for US$5.99 and is a huge download - it's over a gigabyte, and due to iOS installation quirkiness, the game requires 2GB of free space before it will install on your iOS device of choice. Following the success of the original Myst on iOS, we heard back in February that Riven would be coming to the iPhone "by early summer at the latest." In Cyan Worlds' defense, they didn't say which hemisphere's summer they were talking about. In August of 2008, Cyan announced that they'd port Myst to the iPhone, and it became available in July of 2009. The original version of Riven came out in 1997 for multiple systems and was widely acclaimed 13 years later, Riven has an opportunity to reach an entirely new audience of gamers. Riven, the sequel to Cyan Worlds' bestselling game Myst, is now available on the App Store.

Mjml border6/30/2023 When you open up the online editor, you will see this MJML already populated for you to start with. You’ll need to experiment to find what workflow works best for you. Note: This is a simple demonstration meant to show you what is possible using this approach. In the remainder of this post, we’ll demonstrate how to create your own template, along with a content block (the coding process is the same for locally vs. One, if you have a code editor on your computer like Visual Studio Code or Atom, you can install it onto your machine (please see the instructions here).Īlternatively, you can use an online editor. There are two ways to use MJML to make your own custom content blocks in Marketing Cloud. How to Use MJML to Create Custom Content Blocks in Marketing Cloud MJML abstracts away the boilerplate HTML, CSS, and conditional statements necessary to make emails look good across all clients, and ensures your emails always look great. This makes it a complex process for even experienced web developers. Writing HTML emails is cumbersome and more volatile than writing HTML for the web because each email client renders HTML differently. How does it do this? It is a transpiler written in ReactJS that takes your easy-to-write MJML code and produces the compatible, responsive, HTML version of that same code that would have otherwise been more difficult and time-consuming to write. One of the primary benefits of using MJML to create content blocks is it ensures your code will render correctly across all different desktop and mobile clients. Why Use MJML to Create Content Blocks in Marketing Cloud? Marketers can leverage MJML to create custom content blocks that contain a variety of components, from images to dynamic content that changes depending on the recipient. The conditional statements and media queries you would typically have to write to ensure your email content is viewable in all email clients are automatically included when you render it to HTML, making emails significantly easier to create. It uses a simple syntax that converts the MJML code into HTML. MJML is an open-source markup language that makes writing HTML emails easier. Salesforce Marketing Cloud: What Is MJML? Leveraging content blocks also makes creating emails easier, allowing more people on your team to learn and contribute to the organization’s email marketing efforts. Often marketing departments struggle with a lack of Marketing Cloud knowledge or experience, limiting who on the team can contribute to email sends. Instead of building a unique email from scratch for every send, with Marketing Cloud and MJML, you can create email templates and blocks of content that can be reused across multiple emails, reducing the development time required for each email. This post was written for marketing teams leveraging Salesforce Marketing Cloud who want to maximize their efficiency when sending emails. Baby ninja turtles outfit6/30/2023 After having been bitten by a vampire-like creature, he experienced a further mutation, and became a large, dinosaur-like version of himself. In the Mirage comic book series' Volume 4, he is still the most violent turtle, but is more sociable. Despite their brutal first meeting, the two have since formed a close bond. In his self-titled one-shot miniseries, Raphael meets human vigilante Casey Jones, his foil, who is more violent and unstable than he was. Raphael openly admits that the mere thought of his youngest brother being grievously injured causes him to experience violent rage. Raphael often shows a caring, more laid-back, side of himself when around his youngest brother, frequently indulging the young turtle emotionally when at home and ferociously protecting him from harm when in battle. Of his three brothers, Raphael is actually closest to Michelangelo, having stated this in the fourth issue of the Mirage TMNT comics. Since then, he has been less likely to challenge Leonardo's leadership, and on the whole is more friendly towards his family and allies. Raphael mellowed somewhat as the series went on, possibly a key moment for his character development was when he allowed Leonardo to go in alone to defeat The Shredder after nearly being killed by the Foot Elite. In later issues, it is shown that he is not particularly fond of the supernatural, stating so explicitly in Tales of Raphael: Bad Moon Rising. He has a somewhat cynical and sarcastic sense of humor. In the earliest black-and-white Mirage Comics, Raphael was the most violent turtle and had a tendency for going berserk either in battle or when his temper flared up. He is the only Teenage Turtle brother whose name does not end in the letter "O", even though the artist he got his name from is Raffaello.Ĭomic books Mirage Comics In 2011, Raphael placed 23rd on IGN's Top 100 Comic Book Heroes, a list that did not feature any of his brothers. Like all of the brothers, he is named after a Renaissance artist in this case, he is named after the 16th-century Italian painter Raphael. In ROTTMNT, Raphael is the eldest brother and his dynamic with Leonardo is effectively swapped-with Raphael now admonishing Leonardo for his irresponsible attitude and disregard for his role as leader. However, in the most recent versions of the franchise, Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, his role as protector takes precedent over his traditional characterization and his dynamics with his brothers. When he feels as though Leonardo's decision is not in the best interest of the family, for whatever reason, he is sure to voice it. The combination of his personality and role contributes to his rivalry and frequent arguments with his eldest brother and leader, Leonardo. Raphael is an opinionated and independent character who chafes under authority. The origin of Raphael's anger is not always fully explored, but in some incarnations appears to stem partly from the realization that they are the only creatures of their kind and ultimately alone, while also bothered by the injustice the helpless and innocent suffer. Raphael is known for his temperamental and cynical personality, being short-tempered, aggressive, sullen, maddened, sarcastic, and rebellious. He is commonly portrayed in media as speaking with a Brooklyn accent. Raphael wields twin sai as his primary weapon. He is usually depicted wearing a red eye mask in this regard, he is the only turtle to retain this color since the original incarnation of the characters, as the remaining turtles received different colors at a later time. In most iterations, he's depicted as the second eldest of the turtle brothers and often at odds with his eldest brother, Leonardo. Raphael, nicknamed Raph, is a superhero and one of the four main characters of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics and all related media. Brick breaker games6/30/2023 You might have a paddle expansion or one that shrinks it. Grab the power-ups.ĭepending on which version of the game you’re playing, there are different powerups. It’s your chance to change the dynamics of the game. You can take that opportunity that may not have been heading your way, and get in front of it. You plan ahead so that you are acting instead of reacting. You have to learn to see when the opportunities are coming rather than waiting for them to arrive to act. It takes time and practice to get things going the way you want.Īgain, timing is everything. The first few times you might miss entirely or nothing changes. When things seem to be moving in an all too predictable pattern, it’s time to add some spin. Sometimes you have to change the dynamics. Too soon and you might miss the ball entirely. In the game, the way that you spin the ball to go in the desired direction is to swipe the paddle as the ball makes contact. Spin the ball if you want faster results. Still, it’s a lucky shot and not something that we have learned to make use of. Occasionally we’ll get a lucky shot and chip away at more of the obstructions. The stronger the obstacles, the longer it takes. Being content with bouncing back and forth on the bottom rung and spending time trying to chip away at the obstacles takes time. That’s when we need to change the dynamics of the game. Sometimes we even see an opening but have no idea of how to get there. The rest of the time, we’re just struggling to keep things going and to not drop the ball. Often times we think we have a good direction only to be met with opposition that we weren’t expecting. We don’t always get to choose where our first shot in life goes. However, if you know how to spin the ball then you can change the dynamics of the game. They have no control over where the ball goes and it becomes a frustrating, and long game of pong. Typical players don’t aim their first shot carefully and spend the rest of the game just trying not to miss the ball with the paddle. Sometimes, you’ll have a side passage or an angled corridor that you can bounce the ball to. Depending on the layout, you may be faced with a solid wall that prevents you from getting to the top. The main goal of the game is to eliminate all the bricks on the screen. If you only aim for the bottom, you’ll never win. But have you ever thought about what you can learn from the game and apply it to your life or business? I’ll give you three ways that a simple, yet addicting game, can give you an edge. What began as an installed game on the BlackBerry, soon found its way as various alterations for iPhone, Android, and PC. Fashioned after the original, Brick Breaker became a popular and ever-changing game. If you remember the original Block Buster game, then you know just how far it has come since 1979.

Wham i don t want your freedom6/29/2023 That was the year I graduated from high school, and I remember two conflicting emotions: vicarious pride that a sex symbol like George Michael could be out and public about being gay, and fear that his coming out would mean the end of his career, a warning shot to men like me. “So I think in terms of my work, I’ve never been reticent in terms of defining my sexuality.” “The songs that I wrote when I was with women were really about women, and the songs that I’ve written since have been fairly obviously about men,” he said. When he did come out in public, shortly after having been arrested for lewd behavior in a public restroom, eight years after “Freedom ’90,” Michael said his sexuality was an enigma, even to him, but his music was always honest. It sounds almost like a coming-out anthem: “I think there’s something you should know / I think it’s time I told you so / There’s something deep inside of me / There’s someone else I’ve got to be.” In the song, Michael is himself, an artist speaking directly to his fans about the lie of fame, promising to no longer play by its rules. No more coded messages about lovers and exes. Then, of course, there’s “Freedom ’90,” the funkiest song on an album filled with plaintive ballads about war and pain. It’s not hard to tell, though, why it was once a modest hit, with its simple, buoyant melody, ’80s-friendly “doo-doo-doos,” and its teen-candy message of eternal devotion in the face of heartbreak. Older fans of George Michael already knew the fact I discovered as I was unraveling this mystery as a kid, that “Freedom ’90” was Michael’s second song called “Freedom.” The first-recorded with Andrew Ridgeley while he was a member of Wham!-is now fairly described as a deep cut, unmentioned in every karaoke songbook I’ve seen. The year suggested in the song’s title felt like a clue to the song’s deeper meaning, to Michael himself, and perhaps to larger mysteries I could only guess at. It wasn’t hard to infer from the song that Michael was making some sort of layered statement about his celebrity, but as a kid in the days before Google, it was difficult to parse the meaning of that statement. Famously, Michael himself was barely in it instead, a parade of supermodels-and a random, shapely, half-naked man hanging from his gravity boots-lip-synch the lyrics to the song as icons of his earlier stardom (a leather jacket, a jukebox, a guitar) spontaneously combust. The video for “Freedom! ’90,” directed by David Fincher, was inescapable during my tween years.

Trump russian dossier oil company6/29/2023 The Rosneft deal, Page added, was "a good example of how American private companies are unfortunately limited to a great degree due to the influence of sanctions." He said the US and Russia had entered "a new era" of relations but that it was still "too early" to discuss whether Trump would be easing or lifting sanctions on Moscow. Page denied meeting with Sechin, Rosneft's CEO, during that trip but said it would have been "a great honor" if he had. But he was back in Moscow on December 8 - one day after the deal was signed - to "meet with some of the top managers" of Rosneft, he told reporters at the time. There is no evidence that Carter played any role in the Rosneft deal. The "11th hour deal" was "so last minute," Reuters reported, "that it appeared it would not close in time to meet the government's deadline for booking money in the budget from the sale." Qatar's sovereign wealth fund is Glencore's largest shareholder. The company signed a deal on December 7 to sell 19.5% of shares, or roughly $11 billion, to the multinational commodity trader Glencore Plc and Qatar's state-owned wealth fund. Rosneft then scrambled to find a foreign investor, holding talks with more than 30 potential buyers from Europe, the US, Asia, and the Middle East. A scramble for a foreign investorĪfter mid-October, the dossier said, Sechin predicted that it would no longer be possible for Trump to win the presidency, so he "put feelers out to other business and political contacts" to purchase a stake in Rosneft. It is unclear whether Isikoff's reporting is related to the dossier, which has been circulating among top intelligence officials, lawmakers, and journalists since mid-2016. The dossier separately claimed that Diveykin - whom US officials believe was responsible for the intelligence collected by Russia about the US election - met with Page and hinted that the Kremlin possessed compromising information about Trump. Page is also believed to have met with senior Kremlin internal affairs official Igor Diveykin while he was in Moscow last July, according to Isikoff's intelligence sources. A US official serving in Russia while Page worked at Merrill Lynch in Moscow told Isikoff that Page "was pretty much a brazen apologist for anything Moscow did." Page has criticized the US sanctions on Russia as " sanctimonious expressions of moral superiority." He praised Sechin in a May 2014 blog post for his "accomplishments" in advancing US-Russia relations. "If you get along and if Russia is really helping us," Trump asked, "why would anybody have sanctions if somebody’s doing some really great things?” In a recent interview with The Wall Street Journal, Trump suggested the sanctions could be lifted if Moscow proved to be a useful ally. But he signaled that doing so would be Trump's intention if he won the election, and he expressed interest in Sechin's offer, according to the document. Page, for his part, was "noncommittal" in his response to Sechin's requests that the US lift the sanctions, the dossier said. He took a " leave of absence" in September after news broke of his July trip to Moscow, and the campaign later denied that he had ever worked with it. Page was an early foreign-policy adviser to the Trump campaign. Sechin, the source told Yahoo, raised the issue of the US lifting sanctions on Russia under Trump. "In return, Page had expressed interest and confirmed that were Trump elected US president, then sanctions on Russia would be lifted."įour months before the intelligence community briefed Trump, then-President Barack Obama, then-Vice President Joe Biden, and the nation's top lawmakers on the dossier's claims - most of which have not been independently verified but are being investigated by US intelligence agencies - a US intelligence source told Yahoo's Michael Isikoff that Sechin met with Page during Page's three-day trip to Moscow. "Sechin's associate said that the Rosneft president was so keen to lift personal and corporate western sanctions imposed on the company, that he offered Page and his associates the brokerage of up to a 19 per cent (privatised) stake in Rosneft," the dossier said. The claim was sourced to "a trusted compatriot and close associate" of Sechin, according to the dossier's author, former British spy Christopher Steele. The dossier says the offer was made in July, when Page was in Moscow giving a speech at the Higher Economic School. Account icon An icon in the shape of a person's head and shoulders. |
