![]() ![]() I was planning on talking about the latest Mazinger movie, but it bored me so hard with its “only for the fans” attitude that I literally have nothing to say about it. However, things become problematic when the only anime you’re keeping up with at the moment is Darling in the Booty Booty Butt Cheeks and the new Netflix anime won’t be arriving for another two weeks. Hell, I still see Durarara cosplay at conventions, but there are also a large amount of anime peeps who don’t know what that is.īasically, I’d rather try to extract enjoyment from today’s anime rather than slobber over my old favorites. Remember when Tiger & Bunny was popular? Or Arakawa Under the Bridge? I do, but a lot of fans don’t even know they exist. Third, very few anime actually stay in the public mind beyond vague memories after a year or so even when they achieve acclaim, so I doubted most of you would be interested. There’s a difference between reminiscing the past and just flat-out denying that things have changed, especially when the thing that’s changed most likely isn’t going to hold up by today’s standards. It’s one thing if your blog or such is dedicated to old anime, but not when you’re one of those people who say “anime was great in the 80s/00s and now it’s shit”. Second, and this ties into the first reason to a degree, I just flat-out hate when people use the past as a crutch in order to mark their place in the fandom. First is how I like staying in the present. Remember when I wrote about Rose of Versailles needed martial arts if it wanted to be interesting? What the fuck was I thinking?īut seriously, there’s a few reasons why I rarely write about old anime. And while I did write quite a bit about old anime during the early years of Standing On My Neck, said posts no longer exist on this blog because I deleted most of my old content in order to indicate that I was starting fresh. I do have an old review of the semi-sequel visual novel that’s getting an adaptation next season, but I don’t think said review holds up anymore since my priorities changed quite a bit during the last year. Despite bringing up old anime that people remember fondly like Steins Gate quite a bit on here, I’ve never actually written about it. Generally if an anime of yore comes up, it’s in the form of a reference. ![]() There’s been the occasional mini-essay that looked back on anime past, but with the exception of Mob Psycho 100 and My Hero Academia Season 1 (which were only a year old at that time), as well as Mai Mai Miracledue to In This Corner of the World getting a theatrical screening in the US and me wanting to give the film some attention before then, I don’t have anything amongst my reviews whose ending was more than a few weeks/months old when I looked at them. I’m sure a lot of you have noticed that for the most part, and especially as of late, I’ve only really covered current anime on here. Welcome to the start of what I hope will be a new recurring post series on the blog, “Does This Hold Up?”. ![]()

Shackleton claimed that he had a promise of funds from a 'Mr Alfred Harvey'. In early December of 1913 Shackleton's mood was lifted when Lloyd George, then Chancellor of the Exchequer promised him £10,000 to finance his 'Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition' if he could raise a matching sum. The publication of another book 'Scott's last expedition' again put Shackleton's achievements in the background, showing Scott to be a national hero. By the time news reached Great Britain that Amundsen had reached the pole (ahead of Scott) on 14 December 1911, having taken months for news to filter through, all of Shackleton financial schemes had come to nothing and he was leading an unsettled life.īy 1913 the whole country was grieving after news that Scott and his companions had perished on their way back from the South Pole. ![]() When Scott set off on his second Antarctic expedition in the summer of 1910 backed by a government grant of £20,000, Shackelton was left behind saddled with personal financial problems. His writing never came to be regarded as national treasures in the way Scott's Diaries did. Unlike Robert Falcon Scott, Shackleton wasn't a natural writer as he once confessed to his wife Emily in a letter, part of which is quoted above. He had made them pledge to assign their copyright to him before they left. The book also includes substantial quotations from the diaries of other expedition members. 'South' was dictated to Saunders but his contribution was so significant that Shackleton had wanted to put his name alongside his own on the title page.Īlthough he wrote much of the text himself after listening to Shackleton Saunders' wrote: 'My work was complimentary to his'. The book was ghostwritten by New Zealand journalist Edward Saunders who had also helped Shackleton write 'The Heart of the Antarctic', an account of his 1907-1909 Nimrod expedition. It was published in 1919, three years after he returned from Antarctic and it's rarely been out of print since. It was on his third expedition as leader, an attempt to circumnavigate Antarctica, that Shackleton died of a heart attack on 5 January 1922 at the age of 47.Shackleton's account of his Imperial Trans-Antarctic expedition, 'South' was meant to be a factual record of the epic journey. A gifted writer, his polar memoirs The Heart of the Antarctic and South stand testament both to his heroic leadership and his talent for storytelling. After the Endurance was crushed by the ice, Shackleton undertook a perilous 800-mile journey in an open boat to South Georgia to secure the rescue of his men. Shackleton’s exemplary leadership skills again proved crucial when his next expedition, the Endurance Expedition of 1914–17 – an attempt to make the first land crossing of the Antarctic – became a desperate fight for survival. He returned a national hero and was knighted by King Edward VII. He came within 97 miles of the Pole, the farthest south reached by any expedition, but had to turn back to save his men from starvation. ![]() The first he led was the 1907–09 British Antarctic ( Nimrod) Expedition. He served as a junior officer in Captain Scott's 1901–04 Discovery Expedition and went on to mount three expeditions of his own. An exceptional leader, Ernest Shackleton is amongst the greatest Antarctic explorers. ![]() ![]() ![]() Students can also just make clouds!

Other research may involve the release of only male mosquitoes with Wolbachia. Wolbachia bacteria can be used in several ways, including to suppress mosquito populations. Long-term monitoring shows that the WMP’s natural Wolbachia method is self-sustaining in almost all international project sites up to eight years after our teams carry out releases. Our method does not suppress mosquito populations or involve genetic modification (GM) as the genetic material of the mosquito has not been altered. Unlike most other initiatives, our method is natural and self-sustaining. The WMP’s Wolbachia method helps to protect communities from mosquito-borne diseases like Zika, dengue, chikungunya and yellow fever, and does so without posing a risk to natural ecosystems or human health. Mosquitoes with Wolbachia have a reduced ability to transmit viruses to people, decreasing the risk of Zika, dengue, chikungunya and yellow fever outbreaks. Over time, the percentage of mosquitoes carrying Wolbachia grows until it remains high without the need for further releases. These mosquitoes then breed with the wild mosquito population. The WMP's field teams release male and female Aedes aegypti mosquitoes with Wolbachia over a number of weeks. The World Mosquito Program’s Wolbachia method ![]() Two independent risk assessments have been conducted, both of which gave an overall risk rating of ‘negligible’ (the lowest possible rating) for the release of mosquitoes with Wolbachia. Wolbachia is safe for humans, animals and the environment. Wolbachia are naturally occurring bacteria found in 60% of all insect species. The World Mosquito Program’s research has shown that when introduced into the Aedes aegypti mosquito, Wolbachia can help to reduce the transmission of these viruses to people. This important discovery has the potential to transform the fight against life-threatening mosquito-borne diseases. For many years, scientists have been studying Wolbachia, looking for ways to use it to potentially control the mosquitoes that transmit human viruses. ![]() ![]() ![]() Setting Up Sublime for GSC if you script using sublime.Water // Custom liquids - water, lava, slime.Reflection Probes // Advanced Tutorial // Further Examples // Alternate Guide.Volumetric Lighting // Alternate Guide // Complete Lighting Guide // Fix Light Bleeding // Alternate Methods to fix light bleeding.Skyboxes and Lighting // Alternate Guide // Sunlight // Caustic Lighting // Changing Skybox/SSI // Rotating Skybox.FX, Simple Guide // FX Properties // Making Sure FX Play! // Showing FX and Lighting Options on Camera.Making Detail // Barrier Detailing // Highly Detailed Cracked Wall.Texture Blending // Patch Colouring // Alternate Guide using gVertex Tool // Realistic Blood Detailing.Curb/Kerb Creating (Useful Patch Demos).HAVING RADIANT OPEN USES ABOUT 8GB OF RAM Porting Tools // COD Model Tools for Maya // Wraith // Kronos. ![]() Video Editing (maybe for cutscenes or trailers) - use any: Sony Vegas - advanced Windows Movie Maker - basic Adobe Premiere - advanced.Animations can also be made in these softwares.

The magnifying power in this case is roughly MP = (0.25 m)Φ.Ī typical magnifying glass might have a focal length of 25 cm, corresponding to an optical power of 4 dioptres. The eye can then be a larger distance away, and a good image can be obtained very easily the focus is not very sensitive to the eye's exact position. However, magnifiers are not always used as described above because it is more comfortable to put the magnifier close to the object (one focal length away). This is sometimes called the total power of the magnifier (again, not to be confused with optical power). It is typically denoted " m×", where m = MP 0. This value of the magnifying power is the one normally used to characterize magnifiers. The magnifying power obtained in this condition is MP 0 = (0.25 m)Φ + 1, where Φ is the optical power in dioptres, and the factor of 0.25 m represents the assumed near point (¼ m from the eye). The object will then typically also be close to the lens. The highest magnifying power is obtained by putting the lens very close to one eye, and moving the eye and the lens together to obtain the best focus. Magnifiers are typically characterized using a "standard" value of 0.25 m. In a young child, it can be as close as 5 cm, while, in an elderly person it may be as far as one or two metres. This point, known as the near point of accommodation, varies with age. For the "without" case, it is typically assumed that the user would bring the object as close to one eye as possible without it becoming blurry. The magnifying power is the ratio of the sizes of the images formed on the user's retina with and without the lens. The magnifying power is equivalent to angular magnification (this should not be confused with optical power, which is a different quantity). The magnification of a magnifying glass depends upon where it is placed between the user's eye and the object being viewed, and the total distance between them. Magnification Magnifying glass on an arm lamp This was followed by the development of eyeglasses in 13th-century Italy. After the book was translated during the Latin translations of the 12th century, Roger Bacon described the properties of a magnifying glass in 13th-century England. ) A convex lens used for forming a magnified image was described in the Book of Optics by Ibn al-Haytham in 1021. ( Seneca wrote that it could be used to read letters "no matter how small or dim". ![]() The earliest explicit written evidence of a magnifying device is a joke in Aristophanes's The Clouds from 424 BC, where magnifying lenses to ignite tinder were sold in a pharmacy, and Pliny the Elder's "lens", a glass globe filled with water, used to cauterize wounds. ![]() ![]() "The evidence indicates that the use of lenses was widespread throughout the Middle East and the Mediterranean basin over several millennia". History Diagram of a single lens magnifying glass The magnifying glass is an icon of detective fiction, particularly that of Sherlock Holmes. This arrangement is known as a Fresnel lens.
