Vanquish definition dragon3/19/2023 to render incapable or powerless by laughter, sorrow, exhaustion, etc. (Both of these essentially meaning to win with the other guy losing, no win-win situations allowed.)2. To begin with, the common denominator, to overcome, has four possible definitions. The first thing that strikes me is that the definition for to vanquish includes both to defeat and to overcome,’ whereas the definition for to defeat only contains ‘to overcome.’ Where could this lead? To render incapable or powerless by laughter, sorrow, exhaustion, etc. Since both include “to overcome” as the primary definition, I looked that up, too. To defeat or overcome in a battle, contest, etc.ĭefeat (from old French, to undo or ruin) What could the distinction between defeat and vanquish mean? With this in mind I pulled out my trusty dictionary and looked up both “vanquish” and “defeat” in the Collins Concise Dictionary, 2000 edition. Thirdly, I recalled the oft repeated maxim that JKR chooses her words very carefully. This was also brought to my attention by an editorial here on MuggleNet, The Long Reach of Dumbledore, that among other things, suggested tongue-in-cheek that Peeves was a transfigured/transformed Grindelwald, accounting for why Dumbledore kept him around. 77, bold mine)ĭumbledore defeated Grindelwald. Professor Dumbledore enjoys chamber music and tenpin bowling. (PS/SS, Australasian edition, pg. Considered by many the greatest wizard of modern times, Dumbledore is particularly famous for his defeat of the dark wizard Grindelwald in 1945, for the discovery of the twelve uses of dragons blood and his work on alchemy with his partner Nicolas Flamel. *Memory refresher #2 – Dumbledores Chocolate Frog Card.Īlbus Dumbledore, currently Headmaster of Hogwarts. Secondly, on re-reading Philosopher’s Stone, I took note of the wording of Dumbledores Chocolate Frog Card. The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives the one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies (OotP, Australasian edition, pg. *Memory refresher #1 – Trelawney’s prophecy. Firstly, on reading a fanfic (I can’t remember which, apologies to the author) where upon hearing Trelawney’s first prophecy from Harry, Hermione’s first reaction is to head for the Library (no surprise there) to check the possible meanings of “vanquish.” Three things have stuck in my mind over the last couple of months.

Illuminate thesaurus3/18/2023 Soon they were approaching the old border of Colorado into Arizona. Taking the bearing to the southeast that Dutil's notes indicated, they moved their sleds along at a good thirty miles per hour through icy weather conditions. And there are some notes describing the places they stopped." "Run Dutil took bearings and direction readings with a sextant. "Direction readings," Rock yelled exhultantly. "We can try to reach Eden now"Įagerly he played the light across its contents. "It wasn't like that when I was here two weeks ago," Danik gasped. The rubles bought the trapper families some precious supplies like salt in the small free markets in the shadows of the great Soviet forts further east. Hides and furs were exchanged for rubles. The Soviets usually ignored these primitive American communities, which served their purposes because their commanding officers did a brisk trade with the mountainmen who did fur trapping. Moosehead Township was a set of ten or twelve wooden shacks and a tanning shed for hides. It was the area around a small hunter-trapper community called Moosehead. They came upon an area 235 miles south of Colorado Springs Plain that Rockson himself had crossed years earlier. Rockson fumbled through the dead man's clothing until he found the small steno pad with pencil notes inside an inner pocket of his frost-covered tunic. And so they had desisted from tasting this real human. Perhaps the animals had tried to taste the plastic statues over the centuries and found them unpalatable. The body appeared to be untouched the cold had kept it from rotting. The body was there, stiff and frozen, its eyes wide and mouth gaping, the lips blue. Rockson shone the beam of his light over in the direction Danik indicated. Nothing lasts forever, not even the Hall of Presidents. "No," Rock replied, "The weight of the snow finally got to the roof. If you can see to do it, please welcome him into your arms. Heavenly Father, we send you our friend Run Dutil, a good and true American. As McCaughlin rolled up good-sized rocks to the body and then hefted a capstone in place, Rockson said, "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. There was a pack rat sticking its nose out of the decayed fabric.ĭanik agreed, Run Dutil was solemnly carried outside, still in his frozen, stiff sitting position. "His top hat don't look too good." Rona said. McCaughlin shouted, "Watch out -" and drew his shotpistol, before he realized the face was familiar. Rockson gasped as his beam hit a human face. It was dark inside, they lit a flashlight. Rockson and his Freefighters pulled up their sleds in front of the blackened crumbling structure and gingerly stepped into the ruin. The bearing was vague, as Dutil had measured direction with a sextant that was little more than a toy. Rockson needed every bit of his famed "mutant's luck" if they were to reach the obscure site. It would be useful, for if the navigation device had some error in it, they could take that into account in plotting their trek south. (Note: See illuminator for more definitions."Do you think someone's been here?" McCaughlin said.ĭetroit rummaged around and found the toy sextant Run Dutil had used for compiling his meager notes in JFK's plastic hands.

Theme hospital receptionist3/18/2023 It’s a man with a case of invisibility who had to tread through litter and vomit to what he thought would save him, only to drop dead the moment he left the pharmacy after treatment. It is unfortunate, but he must die in my quest to create the world’s worst hospital. With only a twenty percent chance of a cure the game informs me, normally it would be wise to send them away so that they don’t die in my hospital-a bit coldhearted, but a patient dying in your care negatively impacts your reputation meter, although the consequences of that aren’t generally something you ever really feel or notice if you’re trying. My first patient death is quick to arrive. There are no handymen to clean up, and I intentionally understaffed this hospital. The first patients to arrive swiftly make frequent visits to the vending machines, then proceed to vomit and litter. Ordinarily, I’d have given them benches and plants all about the place to make their waiting experience as tolerable as possible, but instead they get a surplus of radiators that i crank up to max to make things unbearably hot and soda machines aplenty to milk them of their money. I hire the least competent doctors and nurses that are available and I intentionally keep them from going to their duties long enough so that a nice miserable queue builds. Of course, I don’t build a restroom to ensure maximum discomfort. I proceed to place every room at the back of the building to insure they have to walk as far as possible to even visit the general practitioner to find out what care they need. Generally, you want to put everything like the general practitioner’s office and pharmacy at the front of the building so that patients don’t have to walk very far. This is the first of many stages with its own challenges but being your earliest hospital the player is given it serves as an introduction stage to help you get to grips with the game’s mechanics. Nothing much to start with, but the tools and funds at your disposal to begin constructing rooms and hiring staff. When thrust into the first level of the game, you’re presented with an empty building. So, this review will focus on my first ever deliberately bad hospital. As challenging as this game can be, it’s actually disappointingly hard to fail at when you’re trying not to. Despite all this time playing, I’ve never run a terrible hospital. I can run a fairly competent hospital, churning out a healthy profit while getting in good graces with every VIP that visits and bolstering an impressive patient cure to death ratio. I’ve played this game the same way for years. Developed by Bullfrog Games in 1997 and published by Electronic Arts, Theme Hospital is possibly the only game among the very few that have even tried to do hospital management right. Theme Hospital is all about every aspect of running your very own health care institution, from hiring the professional employees that will work to cure your patients to laying down every plant and vending machine. Revival attempts have been made with the development of open-source remakes such as CorsixTH.Have you ever wanted to manage a hospital? Me neither, and yet there’s a strange charm in playing a game about it. The game was re-released on GOG.com in 2012 and Origin in 2015, and the PlayStation version was released on the PlayStation Network in Europe in 2008, Japan in 2009, and North America in 2010. A Sega Saturn version was in development, but cancelled. Theme Hospital was a commercial success, selling over 4 million copies worldwide, and was ported to the PlayStation in 1998. The game received a generally positive reception, with reviewers praising the graphics and humour in particular. Multiplayer support with up to four players was added in a patch. Designers originally planned to include four distinct gameplay modes corresponding to historical time periods, but this was dropped due to time pressures on the team. Peter Molyneux and James Leach came up with the idea of creating a Theme game based on a hospital, but Molyneux was not directly involved in development due to his work on Dungeon Keeper. The game is noted for its humour, and contains numerous references to pop culture. The game is the thematic successor to Theme Park, also produced by Bullfrog, and the second instalment in their Theme series, and part of their Designer Series. Theme Hospital is a business simulation game developed by Bullfrog Productions and published by Electronic Arts in 1997 for the PC in which players design and operate a privately owned hospital with the goal of curing patients of fictitious comical ailments.

Quick draft rotation3/18/2023 This makes your play patterns more consistent or at least known ahead of time even though there is high variance in what you may be playing against. You have similar deck construction requirements to constructed except with a much tinier card pool, and it’s much rarer to have many multiple copies of the same cards. While these additional limitations on your deck building make your deck a lot less powerful, it also adds a different dimension to the game. The big difference in limited is that the card pool from which you can construct your deck is … well … limited. I mainly play standard, so I am certainly a constructed player as well. Others may play a wide variety of decks in constructed, but in theory you can play whatever you want in constructed and optimize the deck as you see fit. Some constructed players stick to only a single deck or archetype and may play hundreds of games with it. Constructed players will get to play with the exact same deck and cards as many times as they want to. Limited offers a very different playing experience than constructed. I’ll try to answer this question for constructed players who really enjoy MTG but who haven’t given limited a try. I play Standard more than anything else, although I still draft quite a lot. Then, I’ll start trying to build constructed decks based on what I’ve learned from limited. When a new set comes out, I usually like to draft for a while until I learn the mechanics and synergies of the new set. I’m not sure exactly what prompted me to try sealed except that I had seen it making the rounds with some content creators on YouTube. This article is aimed at three groups of people: constructed players who avoid limited, draft players who avoid sealed, and any MTG players who just like reading opinions about the game. Sealed is not always available on MTGA, but I definitely plan to play it more when it comes around again. For whatever reason, I just decided to take the leap and really fell in love with it. I was looking for an article or something that could explain why someone would choose to play sealed instead of drafting. Before I decided to give it a try, I had very rarely played sealed and usually focused on drafting when playing limited. If we want to make this room a study, we could click into the ‘Office’ category, and you can see it selects all the relevant tags for us.I just got into playing sealed on Magic: The Gathering Arena. There are also collections of tags in the dropdown above the list of tags. You can also CTRL + Click to select multiple, or Shift + Click‘ to select everything in a range. There’s even a ‘colorable’ tag if you want to see exactly which objects can have a custom color selected for them. Now, you can click on any of these tags and see all the relevant objects. You can also click in the ‘Tags’ area in the left-hand sidebar and it will open the right-hand sidebar to the ‘Tags’ tab. You can also choose to view objects you’ve used in this map, or switch over to the ‘Tags’ option. If you have it set to exact it will only return ‘chairs’. For example if you search ‘Chair’ and have it set to fuzzy it may return results for ‘chair’ and ‘stair’. That’s because we’re currently viewing the library by ‘All.’ In this setting, you can search to find objects and refine how exact the results you get back are using the ‘Fuzzy’ and ‘Exact’ slider. Down below, you can see this list of tags, but it’s grayed out.

Podcast maker apps3/18/2023 The outro is the conclusion of your podcast. Whatever matches your podcast’s tone and your personal preferences! You might even choose to use a short clip of your podcast’s theme music. You can approach these transitions (or segues) in several ways, including with a jingle, sound effect, or a spoken phrase. Since your episode will likely have several different components, it’s important to plan out your transitions to make the podcast flow naturally and cohesively. Other sponsors simply give you a set of talking points that you and your co-host are expected to discuss in a way that matches your show’s style.Įither way, it’s a good idea to make a plan for what you’re going to say and how you’ll make the ad sound natural (rather than a hostage video) so that your audience will trust your advice, purchase the products, and your sponsors continue to… well, sponsor you.Ī good basic sponsor message might sound something like: Some podcast sponsors send word-for-word scripts that you simply need to read, then insert into your podcast episode. “Today on the show, we’re excited to have. Your guest introduction can look something like: This can be as simple as stating their profession, or as in-depth as giving a little backstory demonstrating their credibility. And be sure to include any contextual information about your guest that will help your audience understand why they should care what your guest thinks. Write out your guest’s information so that you’re sure you get it right. That’s yet another reason why having a script is a good idea. It’s important not to forget this step, since your guest is likely expecting to be shown the respect of a proper and correct introduction. Next, if your podcast interviews guests, you’ll need to introduce them. Your audience will appreciate a simple outline of what to expect in the episode. Today, we’ll be talking about with our special guest. The simplest intro template looks like this: A good intro will be short, welcoming, and include some type of theme music or jingle. If you’ve listened to many podcasts, you know that most of them have the same introduction each time. Let’s break down the main components of a good podcast script below. That way, your audience will know what to expect. It might have some flexibility to accommodate each episode’s needs, but the basics will stay the same. It’s a good idea to use a podcast script template that stays consistent from episode to episode. When taking the editing time you’ll save into account, writing an outline might actually save you time in the end. It can also reduce mistakes, which can cut editing time significantly. Having an outline and a written direction for your show can help you feel more at ease and focus on the here and now, rather than being stressed about how you’re going to fill the next 30-45 minutes of recording time. Podcast scripts, unlike stage or television scripts, can run the gambit from bare-bones to detailed, as long as they give you an outline and general idea of what should take place in your audio recording.Ī podcast script is basically a roadmap for your episode-and you can decide how many details you need to make it from point A to Z.Ī well-done script gives structure, direction, and conciseness to your podcast episode. You might be hesitant to adopt a script for this reason won’t scripting your podcast essentially rob it of its casual, free-flowing, and conversational feel? Won’t reading off of a page make you sound stilted and monotone?įor one thing, a podcast script doesn’t need to be a word-for-word transcript of your show. When you think of a podcast script, you might think of a play or movie script-where every word is planned out in advance. What Is a Podcast Script, and Why Use One?

Wifi deals mweb3/18/2023 “Africa remains one of the world’s biggest and best opportunities for delivering reliable, high-speed wireless broadband,” said Kasu. IDC forecasts that the wireless LAN market in South Africa will grow over 120 percent from 2012 to 2017 (relative to end user revenue). Today, more than 29 million South Africans use mobile phones over radio (28 million), TV (27 million) or personal computers (6 million). Mobile phone use in South Africa has increased from 17% of adults in 2000 to 76% in 2010, according to research firm Nielsen South Africa. Our goal has always been to build a world-class Wi-Fi infrastructure on a scale that today remains unmatched, and we’ve found that we could only really do that with Ruckus products and technology, due to their reliability and robustness.”Īccording to industry reports, mobile traffic will account for 26% of all South African data traffic by 2016. “We are one of the first service providers to really deploy a real working, carrier-grade wireless infrastructure in South Africa. “Today’s hotspot experience in South Africa is good enough for low-bit rate traffic such as tweets or accessing online applications like Facebook but they just can’t handle multimedia and video content,” said Nathier Kasu, General Manager of Wi-Fi at MWEB. MWEB chose Ruckus Smart Wi-Fi because it offers superior, high-performance Wi-Fi, especially in dense urban environments and public spaces, which is enabling MWEB to achieve its strategy. MWEB will operate 150 Wi-Fi Zones by the end of March 2014 using Ruckus products, offering dual-band Wi-Fi access, with plans to increase to over 500 sites by the end of 2016. MWEB has installed Ruckus access points within high-density indoor locations such as malls, hotels, restaurants, hospitals and other public venues, with plans to deploy more than 15,000 more over the next 12 to 18 months. Owned by MultiChoice South Africa, a subsidiary of media conglomerate Naspers, MWEB has installed over 5,000 indoor and outdoor Ruckus ZoneFlex™ dual-band Smart Wi-Fi access points (APs), including ZoneFlex 7782 outdoor, and ZoneFlex 7982 and ZoneFlex 7055 indoor APs, throughout South Africa. (NYSE: RKUS) today announced that it has been selected by MWEB, one of South Africa’s largest Internet service providers (ISP), to supply its Ruckus Smart Wi-Fi products and technology to support a new nationwide wireless broadband public access service, as well as managed enterprise wireless LAN (WLAN) services to businesses that exploit its vast fiber broadband service available throughout South Africa. You can explore the full rankings on the Speedtest site.SUNNYVALE, CA and CAPE TOWN, RSA - FebruRuckus Wireless, Inc. You can see the consistency score rankings below: Afrihost places third with a score of 64.9%. It also does not artificially lower the speeds of customers who have used a certain amount of data.įor the Q4 rankings, it’s followed by Webafrica, with a consistency score of 66.1%. This means its network is not as vulnerable to adverse weather conditions as networks that integrate wireless technologies. Part of the ISP’s high consistency in speeds is likely due to the fact that it’s a fibre-only network that also offers only unshaped and unthrottled plans. The ISP has achieved first place in this ranking category since it was introduced in Q2 2021. “In measuring the consistency of each fixed broadband provider’s performance, we found that Cool Ideas had the highest Consistency Score in South Africa during Q4 2021, with 73.0% of results showing at least a 25 Mbps minimum download speed and 3 Mbps minimum upload speed,” the company noted in its report. The Ookla report also ranked fixed internet providers for their consistency. Rain had the worst latency of the providers ranked, with a median latency of 24ms.īest consistency for internet providers in South Africa Up next were Afrihost and Vox Telecom, with a median latency of 5ms. Webafrica and Cool Ideas tied in first place for the lowest latency, with both having a median latency of 4ms. So how did local ISPs perform when it came to latency scores in Q4? Internet provider with the best latency in South Africa You can see the rankings of ISPs according to their speed scores below: It’s followed by Afrihost in second place for Q4, and then Web Africa. The ISP has dominated the speed rankings throughout the year, taking first place in every quarter. This is a slight improvement on its score of 53.85 in the previous quarter. So what did the report show? Fastest fixed internet providerĬool Ideas topped the speed rankings again, with a Speed Score of 54.46.
