But where does this feeling come from? What precipitates it?īased on the fact that it's decidedly the Nora Ephron version of Meg Ryan that I find so appealing, I have to imagine that it is just a little bit physical and mostly behavioral something about the way that Nora Ephron makes her talk and act is what makes her so attractive. She evokes a sort of comfort in you and a coziness that might be evoked by an old girlfriend trotting around in a t-shirt and a pair of jeans. And, while she rarely wears jeans and t-shirts in her movies, I know exactly what he meant. A long time ago, a friend of mine defined her as the ultimate "jeans and t-shirt" girl. To answer this question, I guess I have to really think about what it is in Meg Ryan that I find so delicious. So this got me thinking - do I really like Meg Ryan? Or do I like Nora Ephron's Meg Ryan? She's even written some other non-Meg favorites such as My Blue Heaven and Mixed Nuts. and much more.Īs it turned out, Nora Ephron is the writer behind the best "classic Meg" movies that I love: A quick check on the IMDB confirmed this. I thought perhaps it was the same writer as Sleepless in Seattle. While I couldn't place the name, it sounded so familiar. And that's when I saw it, in the opening credits, that the movie was written by Nora Ephron. So I settled into bed, hit play, and laid back. Then, on Sunday, I was in a rather romantic mood and felt like watching When Harry Met Sally - perhaps one of the best movies ever made. ![]() Needless to say, it was "classic Meg" (although the quote above is Tom Hanks). I was just taking her hand to help her out of a car and I knew. I knew it the very first time I touched her. Well, it was a million tiny little things that, when you added them all up, they meant we were suppose to be together. It turned out to be an adorable, sweet movie with fantastic dialog and such memorable quotes as: Then last week, I saw that Sleepless in Seattle was on TV and, as I'd never seen it as an adult and remember hating it as a child, I figured I'd DVR it and watch it over the weekend (what can I say - I'm a big softy for romantic movies). Films such as Addicted to Love, Proof of Life, Joe Versus the Volcano, and In the Land of Women were decent movies, but they just weren't what I'd call, "classic Meg." But like any actor, she's also made some less than fantastic movies. And for years, I just assumed it was all due to her inherent goodness. She stood out from the other actresses of her time as being just fun and adorable and super lovable. ![]() I still like her, of course, but when I was younger, I definitely held her on some sort of a pedestal.

8/12/2023 0 Comments Company of heroes 3 console![]() Yes, you can use a controller for both PlayStation 5 and Xbox or a compatible mouse and keyboard. Will Company of Heroes 3 have Mouse and Keyboard support on console? It was also important to us to ensure that any changes to make CoH3 feel good on console would not adversely affect how you play or control the game on the PC Edition. You can see this in action in our announcement gameplay video. We’ve also modified the HUD and UI to ensure navigating with a controller is easy and feels good. We’ve been working hard internally at Relic and in conjunction with our partner studios at SEGA to ensure CoH3 controls intuitively and responsively with a controller. Will the controls and the game's HUD be adapted for the controller? This includes cross-play or cross-progression. Will cross-play or cross-progression be available?Ĭurrently, we are not planning to implement any cross-platform features for the Console Edition. Though console development started shortly after our work on PC, Relic has tremendous support from our SEGA partner studios to ensure the Console Edition meets the high standards of our developers and our console players. At launch, both versions will be nearly identical, aside from the minor changes we outline below. This allows us to expand the audience for CoH3 by bringing the game to console. The nice thing about modern consoles is that they are basically just PC's underneath their fancy cases. We wanted to deliver the best-in-class strategy experience our PC fans have come to expect. Because of that, our development from the very start was always PC-focused. We knew we had to do the same for CoH3 and launch the best game in the franchise’s history without any compromises. Relic has a long history of delivering incredible strategy experiences on the PC. When did you decide to bring CoH3 to consoles? Does this affect the PC Edition? We are still working on our post-launch content plans and related systems for console and are looking at the best way to deliver a mix of free and premium content to our Console players. Will I be able to earn content in game just like on PC? ![]() Rest assured we’re planning on bringing the same gameplay content to console as we are to PC. The Console Edition will receive a robust post launch roadmap, consisting of content updates, tuning, quality of life improvements, and more. However, updates to the Console Edition will be made separately to PC. Will the Company of Heroes 3 Console Edition receive post-launch support? Pre Order Bonus - Devil’s Brigade DLC Pack (as above) Pre Order Bonus - Devil’s Brigade DLC Pack What comes with a pre-order of the Company of Heroes 3 Console Edition?

Exciting times are ahead for players who are waiting for Company of Heroes 3 to hit console. 8/12/2023 0 Comments Outlast 2 val![]() The god responds well to physical damage and is very weak to poison and burning, as his parts have low defense. The Player can deal with the encounter in different ways. When fully formed however, it will cast Whispers of Gro-goroth, a unique spell that makes the target more vulnerable to spells and begins a death timer, which will kill the character in a few turns. The third eye only attacks when fully formed (4 turns) and has the smallest amount of HP from all the body parts, so it doesn't have to be the main priority. The head should be targeted last, as it will become completely harmless once both sides of the brain are killed. His left brain (right side) only uses Headbutt, which afflicts the whole party, but with relatively low damage. It is important to focus on the right brain (left side) first, as this is the main damage source - the "creative" section that casts spells, such as Hurting (capable of destroying limbs) and Black orb. He has a third eye that will slowly grow from the middle of his brain during combat, acquiring the shape of an erect penis.Įvery turn, both sides of Valteil's brain will either spend the turn thinking, or attack the party. He shows himself as a large pale head with an exposed brain. Should the player follow him all the way down, the fight will begin. When the player walks within the room where he resides, Valteil will be standing at the edge of a giant library shelf. He resides in the deepest part of the grand libraries, behind the doors of the mannequin puzzle. ![]() In the game, he can be observed alongside other inactive entities in the Hall of the Gods, an indication that his reign as an influential figure had reached its end. Events recounted in Fear & Hunger 2: Termina illustrate that Valteil was indeed ultimately defeated. Nas'hrah, harboring a deep animosity towards Valteil, comments that the New God deserves what he got and made disturbing accusations of pedophilia, though their veracity remains uncertain. However, following his defeat in combat, he hanged himself. Valteil possessed the Enlightened soul, one of the three essential souls necessary for entry into the Temple of the Gods. Notably, Valteil successfully brought forth the Lord of flies, as well as a mechanical entity named Uterus, for his "past-time pleasure". However, fearing that his creations would outlast him, he opted to craft artificial lifeforms from flesh, thereby imposing a limited lifespan upon them. Deeply immersed in his studies, Valteil became an immensely knowledgeable New God, devoting his existence to the pursuit of understanding the creation of artificial life.Īs he believed that this endeavor could bridge the divide between the New Gods and the Old Gods, Valteil sought to fashion a working-class being similar to the eternal clay figurines of Ma'habre. Valteil, in particular, rose to become the Enlightened One, establishing himself within the Grand Libraries of the ancient city. Their path led them into the realms of Ma'habre, where they ascended to become powerful entities. ![]() In the year 809, the Fellowship embarked on a journey to attain the status of New Gods. His attire suggests a previous role as a Dark Priest before his ascent. At some point in history, Valteil held the title "the scholar of arts", although it is unknown if during his human life or after his ascension as a New God. Valteil was a member of the Fellowship, a group comprising Francóis, Nilvan, Ronn Chambara, and the Forgotten One. 8/12/2023 0 Comments Encore used furniture![]() Trades will be considered and delivery is available.

8/12/2023 0 Comments Timeless kitchen design 2020![]() Shown Above: Cobham Handmade Tile in Latte 4. This instantly adds warmth and character to your space. Add a colorful roman shade over the window, a bowl of fruit on the counter, or a patterned rug in front of the sink. If you're worried about it being too cold or boring, this is where accessories come in. We keep seeing headlines about the "death of the white kitchen" but make no mistake, white kitchens will always be classic. Shown Above: Two-Color Brocade Handmade Tile Backsplash in Satin Silver & Light Gray For lasting appeal, we recommend choosing a medium tone wood finish like in the kitchen island below. Does that mean you can't have wood finishes if you want a timeless house? No way. Even though we LOVE it, we predict the current white oak finish you're seeing everywhere will one day scream 2020. Wood finishes also tend to be trendy - For example, unless it's in some quaint cabin in the woods, an oak kitchen screams 1990s all day long. If you want to use them, consider adding trendy neutrals in accessories that are easier to replace (think towels, decorative bowls, and rugs) and avoid them in more permanent hard finishes (like tile, cabinets & countertops). ![]() Now? Black accents are everywhere you look. Twenty years ago, brown was the hot color. Here are our top tips for creating a timeless, classic kitchen in your own home:Ĭolor trends last about ten years and are generally linked to a trendy neutral. Have you been inspired by any of these trends? Talk to our experts about creating a contemporary solid surface for your next kitchen design project.Choosing classic finishes means your renovation will stand the test of time and add lasting value to your home - Done properly, a classic kitchen will look gorgeous for decades to come. Nifty units, disguised appliances and wall-mounted storage get the best from every square metre, while seamlessly integrating sinks, hobs and draining grooves into your work surface helps create the illusion of added spaciousness. Surfaces with a bold pattern are big right now, and hardwearing solid surfaces copying natural patterns mean that previously unsuitable materials such as marble can be replicated to give the look without the cleaning and durability issues.’Īs the size of new homes get smaller, designers are coming up with new ingenious ways to save space and keep kitchens practical and aesthetically appealing. ‘Opt for plain units and inject some colour and pattern elsewhere. Interiors experts, Ideal Home magazine, advise: Rather than choosing bold wallpapers or flooring, use surfaces to add in natural pattern. Using texture and colour to add originality is something that can elevate your kitchen design and deliver natural elegance. A durable solid surface provides the perfect contemporary backdrop to a smart, minimalist kitchen. Handless units and a clean, cohesive work surface are the basis of this look with synthetic materials like Corian®, allowing you to create statement surfaces in any style and thickness. Kitchen designs now focus on minimising the amount of clutter we have on display to create clean lines and sleek spaces. See a monochrome kitchen as an investment you may eventually go off bright, busy textures and colour schemes, but a clean white, black or grey work surface is going to remain timeless even as kitchen décor trends come and go around it.Īs technology simplifies everyday household tasks, the need for life’s paraphernalia has begun to subside. Using black, white and grey tones for your kitchen design is not only a style statement, but it creates a clean space which can be styled around your unique preferences and accent colours. Inspired partly by Scandinavian design, which pairs utility with beauty, solid surfaces feature as the durable centrepiece of kitchens designed to elegantly complement everyday life. The raw and industrial feel that has dominated coffee shops, bars and retail spaces over the past year or so has firmly taken root in contemporary kitchen design.Įxposed features, like brick and copper pipework, are contrasted against raw materials, such as wood and solid stone effect surfaces for a stripped back, urban-renewal approach. We’ve written before about the timeless benefits of solid kitchen work surfaces, but how do these surfaces lend themselves to current design trends? Here we select 5 kitchen design trends for spring 2020 to explore how solid surface fabrication can help you achieve them: The flexibility of synthetic surfaces like Corian®, Krion® and Hi-MACS® makes them perfectly suited to bespoke kitchen designs, where work surfaces can be seamlessly integrated for stunning results. Kitchen design trends to watch out for this spring Posted by Whitehall on 14th FebĪs solid surface fabrication advances, so do the opportunities to create increasingly stylish, yet functional kitchens. 8/11/2023 0 Comments Pepper plant seedlings![]() You also have to make the most of your greenhouse or other indoor protected growing space, so you don't want to grow your transplants to an unnecessarily large size. An oversized, rootbound transplant will be significantly stressed and result in a compromised crop. On the other, you don't want the plants to become rootbound, especially if poor weather delays planting. See our Guide to Choosing a Grow Light for information on light quality and choosing a unit suited to your needs.Ībout 2 weeks after germination, when the first true leaves begin to form, carefully separate the seedlings and transplant them into cell trays or pots.Ĭhoosing the correct cell size for peppers involves another balancing act: On the one hand, you want the pepper seedling's roots to fill the cell so that the root ball holds together when you transplant it outside. At many latitudes at the seedling-starting time of the year, window light is insufficient, and some grow lights are inadequate to the task as well. Once germinated, pepper seedlings need light - ample, full-spectrum wavelength light. In such cases, early yield may be reduced but the plants will continue growing vegetatively until conditions are right to resume fruit set. When high temperatures arrive earlier than usual, for example, they can disrupt the timing and size of the harvest. Of course, weather is beyond a grower's control, and the ideal conditions may not occur in some locations and some years. The best scenario is to get peppers transplanted as soon as the weather is warm and settled, so that fruit set occurs when temperatures are between 65☏ (18☌) and 85☏ (29.4☌). At the high end of their range, very little fruit set occurs above 90☏ (32☌), especially with bell peppers. They are a warm-season fruiting crop, like tomatoes and eggplants, and will not thrive when temperatures are below 60☏ (16☌). Timing is everything with peppers because they perform best within an approximately 30-degree temperature range. Here are some tips for getting your pepper seedlings off to a healthy start. And because yield can be affected by the quality of the transplants, you will want to pay special attention to your young pepper plants' needs. Pepper seedlings are not hard to start, but they are somewhat picky. To take full advantage of all the pepper possibilities, you have to grow your own transplants. ![]() You may even tap into entirely new markets by growing hot or sweet specialty peppers used in ethnic cuisines. You can price them by the piece or sell the lunchbox types in containers or bagged. You can market them fresh, dried (bagged or in ristras), pickled, and, with the proper equipment, roasted. Peppers encompass dozens of types, in many colors, shapes, and flavors that run the gamut from sweet bells to pungent habanero.Īlong with diversity, peppers have versatility: harvest them green or let them ripen to their mature color - providing you with a longer harvest window as well as the opportunity for stunning multicolor market displays. Watering, Fertilizing, & Disease Preventionįor many growers, peppers are among the most strikingly diverse and profitable of vegetable crops. ![]() This one's not as bad as it sounds - Prismatic Trials are very short and easily replayed - but you will have to be careful since the Mercenary is a melee character. Just find a flock of flying enemies and keep bouncing between them with your dash.Įthereal: complete a Prismatic Trial without falling below 100% health. The Hardlight Afterburner Legendary alone will pretty much do it. With a few Hopoo Feathers and a bit of cooldown reduction, Mercenary can stay in the air pretty much indefinitely using his dash attack. This one's a lot easier than you might think, what with Mercenary being a melee character. Mercenaryĭemon of the Skies: don't touch the ground for 30 seconds. ![]() Same as above: put on your coolest sunglasses and clear seven stages on Monsoon difficulty, then take the Celestial Portal to the Obelisk and choose the obliterate option. Mastery: obliterate yourself at the Obelisk on Monsoon difficulty. Have your equipment ready, make sure all your abilities are off cooldown, and let loose. ![]() The most important thing is to not accidentally damage the boss before you drop it. The items in Risk of Rain 2 are so random that there's no clear-cut way to do this - just play for a while until you have a bazillion items, then melt a boss. Stack some AoE items, soften up a group of 20 or more enemies, herd 'em together, and let 'em have it.Ĭhunked!: fully defeat the teleporter boss in a one-second burst of damage. The Artificer's Charged Nano-Bomb is great for this. For this challenge, you need to kill 20 enemies with the same attack in the exact same instant. Massacre: perform a multikill of 20 enemies. If you're having trouble, try jumping from a high point and using mobility items like the Hopoo Feather. You can soften them up before you take to the skies just to make things easier. Just jump or hover over a big group of enemies and let loose. Orbital Bombardment: kill 15 enemies before touching the ground. Same as above: crack your knuckles all cool-like and clear seven stages on Monsoon difficulty, then take the Celestial Portal to the Obelisk and choose the obliterate option. Double-check vending machines for Crowbars, focus on opening small chests which give more White items and keep your eyes peeled for a Crowbar 3D printer. The Crowbar is a common White item, so amassing 12 shouldn't take too long. One Shot, One Kill: collect and carry 12 Crowbars at once. Either way, you're going to need to play carefully. The Topaz Brooch, in particular, is great for this. Shields are fair game, so items that give added shields or replace your health with shields will help out here. This one's going to be hard no matter what, but there's more to this challenge than 'never take damage in Rallypoint Delta.' The keyword here is health. Piercing Wind: start and finish Rallypoint Delta without falling below 100% health. Same as above: pull your giant robot socks up and clear seven stages on Monsoon difficulty, then take the Celestial Portal to the Obelisk and choose the obliterate option. Note that this will also work if more than two Beetle Queens spawn. ![]() Just stay inside the red teleporter bubble while you fight the two Queens. The Beetle Queen often spawns in early stages like Distant Roost, Titanic Plains, Abandoned Aqueduct, and Wetlands Aspect, so this one shouldn't be too hard. Multiple bosses will start spawning on later waves, but you can guarantee multiple bosses using Shrines of the Mountain. Pest Control: defeat two Beetle Queens without leaving the teleporter zone. Once you unlock it, play until you get an Imp Overlord to spawn, get it to low health, then blast it with Preon. You can find more details in our Risk of Rain 2 items guide. The Preon Accumulator is an Equipment item that you unlock by opening a specific chest in Rallypoint Delta within 10 minutes of starting your run. Gotcha!: land the killing blow on an Imp Overlord with the Preon Accumulator. 8/11/2023 0 Comments Name of bastion main characterPlus, his hit box is a lot smaller, so enemy players have a harder time dealing damage. You can still heal in tank mode too, so while you’re waiting for the cooldown, make sure you heal up! The native client feature lets you connect to your target VMs via Bastion using Azure CLI, and expands your sign-in options to include local SSH key pair and Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). If the turret wasn’t powerful enough, Bastion can also turn into a tank! His tank mode allows him to move and fire his cannon for 8 seconds, which deals 205 damage on a direct hit, as well as further splash damage. This article helps you configure your Bastion deployment, and then connect to a VM in the VNet using the native client (SSH or RDP) on your local computer. You still have time to get out of his way in turret mode, as there’s a slight wind-up time, and he can’t headshot enemy players.īastion can also self-heal, so in between fights with other heroes, you have the ability to make the healers’ job a lot easier. ![]() Levels consist of a single plane, and are viewed isometrically. The player character, 'the Kid', moves through floating, fantasy-themed environments that form paths as the player approaches the edge. ![]() If you’re playing against Bastion, the system isn’t broken. Bastion is an action role-playing game with a level structure. Bastions’ turret ability is one of the highest damage per second abilities in the game – running towards Bastion in sentry mode isn’t the smartest thing to do! Tanks and shields stand very little chance against Bastion’s turret mode, making him a formidable hero to play against. ![]() During a Mushroom Samba flashback, the narrator paints the Kid as a villain in everything he does, no matter how harmless. After Bastion transforms into an immovable turret, his damage is increased significantly, making his weapon a lot more powerful. Alternate Character Interpretation: In-universe. 8/11/2023 0 Comments Dropbox vs google drive![]() ICloud Drive and Dropbox are among some of the most featureful cloud storage solutions available. There’s also a separate backup product for users who just prefer to work from their computer as normal, but have a safe copy somewhere in case of an emergency. For the most part, files reside in one parent folder, however, there’s nothing stopping you from organizing folders within this to mirror your preferred usage, such as separating documents, photos, and videos.ĭropbox does have its own dedicated e-signature tool, which gives most paying users access to at least three e-signatures per month. ![]() Yes, there is a Windows client that has most of the same core functionalities, but it’s nowhere near as neatly integrated or slick as it is on a Mac.ĭropbox provides a more universal approach, but it is less deeply integrated into either operating system. Things become rather more limited when you’re trying to run iCloud Drive on another device, such as a Windows machine. Left to its own devices, it will hide what it considers to be junk (like screenshots) for a perfectly curated gallery - of course, you can show all content - and tagging by location and faces works well, too. Photos and videos reside in the Photos app, which is available on macOS and iOS, as well as in the browser if you don’t have an Apple device. We can’t move on without finally mentioning Photos, which is one of a handful of other services included with iCloud Drive. Apple’s own apps can open Microsoft Office files by default (with some loss of formatting), but to open an Apple file on Windows devices, you’ll first have to convert and export it accordingly. ![]() There are online versions of Pages, Numbers, and Keynote, however, we much prefer working from the desktop versions of the apps, which are available free of charge, though on Mac only. There is browser access, too, which looks slick and incorporates access to the entire iCloud ecosystem. Other desktop clients, including Dropbox, do offer greater control in terms of bandwidth throttling, however for the most part iCloud Drive does a solid job of syncing in the background. The “Optimize Mac Storage” switch inside System Preferences on Mac allows users to control whether all files should be downloaded, or to keep them in the cloud and only download them when necessary. Depending on what you have enabled, files will show in Finder or the mobile Files app, the Photos app, and other applications like Notes, Reminders, and Calendar. There isn’t so much a dedicated client for Macs, iPhones, and iPads, but rather a series of settings to toggle. The slickest experience, particularly for users already working from Apple’s own hardware, will come from the desktop client and mobile apps. |
