3rd bass the cactus album rar4/3/2023 Comedy aside, this song was pretty terrible. What is even more amusing is Mustafa explaining to the listener that contracting this combination of std’s can make your balls fall off (nice scare tactic, bro). Mustafa’s story about a dude sleeping with a chick who happens to have syphilis, gonorrhea, herpes, and AIDS (when it rains it pours, I guess) was pretty comical, in a how the hell does one human being contract that many stds at the same time and manage to continue to breath, yet alone desire to continue to sex, kind of way. My people, we have to take responsibility for our actions (stepping of my soapbox). I believe there may be some truth to this theory, but if I see and recognize you’ve laid a trap specifically set to snare me and I still choose to walk into it, some of the blame has to fall on me. The song’s premise is built around a conspiracy theory that the white man has designed a plan to infect and kill off the black race with stds. “KK” referring to the Klu Klux (as in the Klan), and “Punanni”, I think you’re all smart enough to figure that out. KK Punanni – This is another Public Service Announcement with a pretty interesting song title. I don’t know about you but I’ve seen hella brothers shit on the environment as well. The track’s tempo is slowed down but unfortunately Mustafa doesn’t change his approach on the mic and come across overly aggressive (and sloppy) as he addresses the world’s environmental issues, before going into a full fledge sermon on why the white man is a savage and how irresponsible he has been with Mother earth and her resources. Universal Blues – The instrumental for this one is built around the theme music for 2001: A Space Odyssey. Mustafa picks up where he left off on the previous track, yelling his sloppy rhymes over an instrumental he can’t keep pace with (and this time he manages to rhyme “savage” with “bondage”). United Snakes Of America – This is a shot out to all the corrupt branches/organizations that lead, serve, and protect this great country, past and present. Wait, did he really just rhyme “shot” with “virus”? Regardless of the poor contribution from Mustafa, I can’t stress how sick the horns are on this instrumental. The problem is Mustafa sounds sloppy and as if he’s chasing the beat, and unfortunately for him the beat happens to be Usain Bolt. The track is pretty aggressive, which is only appropriate since the theme of the song is to take your freedom by force. Decent enough for an album intro.įreedom Got A Shotgun – This one opens with some pretty epic horns before the drum beat drops and Mustafa comes in screaming at the instrumental like he caught it in bed with another rapper. Prologue-This Movement Is Ex-Rated – The album starts off with a pretty dope instrumental before Mustafa chimes in to introduce the crew and their collective mission to bring you reality per Allah (and for you to see your past, present, and future…and some stuff about seeing yourself face to face). They would later ink a deal with Columbia and release their only debut album Movement Ex, before disbanding to forever be forgotten in the annuls of hip-hop. Apparently, Mustafa later changed his emcee alias to Born Allah only to forever be forgotten in the annuls of hip-hop, again.īy 1990 I was breathing, eating, and sleeping hip-hop, so I’m still perplexed at how I completely missed this one. He later took to the teachings of the 5 Percent Nation, linked up with DJ King (who was also a 5 Percenter), and the duo formed Movement Ex. Lord Mustafa, whom I will only refer to as Mustafa going forward (because I’m not british and he aint Jesus), was born in New York and moved to Cali as a kid. Movement Ex was comprised of emcee Lord Mustafa and deejay/producer DJ King Born. Since it was only a dollar, and anybody who reads this blog regularly knows what a sucker I am for those dollar deals, I decided to add it to the collection. I became even more curious when I noticed this was released on a major label during a time when that was still a pretty rare feat for a hip-hop artist. After flipping the cd case over and discovering a pic of the same two brothers in African Dashikis on the back, I quickly concluded this was a hip-hop album and not a gospel album like I initially suspected (that and the fact that the track listing included songs labeled “Freedom Got A Shotgun” and “KK Punanni”). While rummaging through the used cd bins at one of the used cd shops that I frequent, I came across an album cover with two young brothers in suits standing behind a pulpit as if tag team preaching.

Bittorrent sync box4/3/2023 The end result is a system that is much more resilient against traffic spikes and censorious governments and web hosts. As the site gets more popular, the burden of serving its content is spread among more computers, a feature that comes from the underlying BitTorrent protocol. The next user to visit the site will download part of the site from you, and part of the site from the original location. So when you visit a site on SyncNet, a copy of the whole site is downloaded to your computer. "You gave someone your info and inherently gave them the power to pass it along and pass it along."Īnother early Sync app, known as SyncNet, a version of the World Wide Web in which the content of the sites is distributed among the readers of the sites. "This is how contact info used to spread," Seymour says of Peers. Peers is more like a physical Rolodex-simple and powerful. But the software already is far more durable than the centralized social network, which makes it hard to get data out of the system and can cut off access or lop off features without notice. The software, now at version 0.2.3 after eight months, is at a pre-release stage, and the lack of polish shows. If one or two Sync apps take off, it could bolster the entire business of selling privacy-friendly software. It also offers evidence that some developers want to avoid or escape the Apple and Google app stores, which tend to reward apps with invasive ads and tricks to sell digital goods within the apps. But the emerging Sync ecosystem offers an intriguing example of how corporate prerogatives can help promote, rather than undermine, pro-privacy practices like encryption and decentralization. And all of the apps could be scuttled by one false move at BitTorrent Inc., the file-sharing company that developed Sync and controls the platform interfaces on which Sync developers build. None of the software is even at the so-called "beta" stage of development, where wider testing can begin. The growth of Sync apps is in the early, fragile stages. Sync now counts more than 2 million users only 16 months after launching. These developers are riding the same wave that carried BitTorrent Sync, a file-syncing system similar to Dropbox but heavily encrypted and without a central server. They're betting people are tired of seeing private information Hoovered up by the likes of the National Security Agency, online advertisers, or rogue hackers. But a small cadre of developers is building decentralized, privacy-conscious apps on the fast-growing BitTorrent Sync platform, creating everything from a more resilient version of the web to a peer-to-peer version of Facebook. Big app-makers are grabbing all the personal data they can these days. Flower arch decor4/3/2023 You can spend hours sourcing inspiration from real weddings, but your vision ultimately relies on choosing the right wedding ceremony flowers for your own unique arch.įor example, consider hydrangeas. In contrast, spring and summer brides can accentuate the wooden frames with billowy curtains, white and pink roses, and elegant greenery. Autumn brides can use wispy grapevines and fall foliage to capture the theme of their wedding day. Rustic Wedding ArchĪ wooden wedding arch pairs beautifully with rustic outdoor weddings and rustic wedding flowers. For best results, accentuate your triangular arch with one or two cascading bouquets or invest in a wood and metal arch for an elevated outdoor space. Thanks to its minimal design and geometric shape, a triangular ceremony arch guarantees a boho vibe for your ceremony site. Let your imagination run wild with a floral arch! Whether you hope to capture an earthy vibe with minimal decorations or embrace the tropical beauty of a beach wedding with lush greenery and exotic flowers, a garden arch adds a magical touch to your big day. At the same time, the rustic arch ensures that all your guests know where the main event takes place. The relatively inexpensive ceremony marker forms a delicate frame for your special moments. Traditional arches range in size and structure, though most feature metal or wooden arbor designs accentuated with clusters of flowers, fairy lights, or billowy curtains. Before we dive into the best flowers for your flower arch and wedding decor, let's take a look at the most common wedding arch styles. The canny Nasymth made sure his Bridgewater Foundry had a perfect location near a canal, railway, and road to easily distribute his locomotives, machines, tools, and metal products. Moving on to Manchester, Nasmyth established his own foundry in August 1836. The Board of Trustees of the Science Museum (CC BY-NC-SA) As Nasmyth himself put it, " were always ready for work, and never required a holiday" (ibid, 113). Rather, he was the personification of the spirit of the Industrial Revolution, constantly enquiring how a process could be made more efficient by "reducing labour costs and dependency on unreliable working men" (Waller, 45). Nasmyth loved machines, but he was no idealist trying to create a better world. Maudslay had invented the metal precision lathe amongst other innovations, and he was the man to be associated with for any self-respecting engineer of the period. James gained invaluable practical experience when he worked in the famous engineering workshop of Henry Maudslay (1771-1831) in London. James' father Alexander, known primarily as an artist, was also interested in engineering and even had a forge in the family home. Nasmyth had been tinkering with steam engines for most of his life, including in his childhood in Edinburgh when he built small working models. The fine controls of a steam hammer allowed any number of pieces of metal to be bent in exactly the same way. As the history of metalworking is now fully aware, Nasmyth and his workshop team were up to the challenge. Brunel wrote to his friend Nasmyth, a machine tool specialist already supplying many parts for the Great Britain project, in the hope of finding a solution. At the time, there was no existing forge or machine tool big enough to create such metal pieces for heavy industry. The latter ship's design was innovative since it had a propellor-driven power source, but back in 1839, when still in the planning stage, Brunel was focussing on using only giant paddle wheels, which needed metal drive shafts around 76 cm (30 in) in diameter. Brunel was building giant steamships like the SS Great Western and SS Great Britain, completed in 18, respectively. Isambard Kingdom Brunel (1806-1859), a key figure in this rapid period of industrialisation, was busy with all kinds of projects, but one of them, in particular, would benefit from the steam hammer. James Nasmyth was encouraged to create his steam hammer because other engineers needed large metal pieces for their own inventions. The Scottish engineer James Nasmyth had the idea that such a power could be used in an industrial hammer to forge and bend large pieces of metal for use in the construction and manufacturing industry, even for new, more efficient steam engines.Īs was often the case during the Industrial Revolution, necessity was the mother of invention. Engineers continued to improve the engine until it worked using a pressure high enough to create a power capable of moving great weights. Next, James Watt (1736-1819) developed Newcomen's design, and by 1778, he had greatly reduced the fuel consumption of the steam engine and increased again its power. In 1712, Thomas Newcomen (1664-1729) adjusted Savery's design to create a self-contained steam engine which was a lot more powerful. 1650-1715) which was designed to clear mine shafts of floodwater. In 1698, a steam-powered pump was invented by Thomas Savery (c. The invention of the steam engine was a process of several steps involving multiple inventors. Nasmyth made a fortune from an invention which became crucial to the larger engineering projects of the Industrial Revolution. Coming in a wide range of dimensions, the steam-powered machine was used to forge and shape very large pieces of metal for industrial use. The steam hammer was developed in 1839 by the Scotsman James Nasmyth (also spelt Naysmyth, 1808-1890). Ftl faster than light gameplay4/3/2023 The ill-conceived boss fight breaks the established rules to deliver a frustratingly unfair challenge, but the meat of the gameplay itself is an excellent take on one of sci-fi fandom’s oldest and most beloved themes. Unlocking the rest of the ship roster should be easier, since trying different ships is a core pillar of FTL’s replayability. A full run through of the game is only an hour or two long, so it’s not like you’re losing hours of progress. “Losing is fun” is a goal that any game with permadeath must strive for (and many fail to achieve), but every death is just an excuse to try out new weapon and system combos. A dearth of encounter types makes figuring out the optimal tactic for a given battle trivial after a few hours, but the huge effect that FTL’s randomization has on your capabilities at least means you’re not always doing the same thing over and over. Taking out each enemy ship, whether you board it and kill the crew, cluster laser blasts to punch through its shields, or bombard it with bombs and missiles, is invariably satisfying to pull off. Basic survival isn’t enough you must grow stronger if you have any hopes of reaching the final sector and defeating the rebel flagship.įTL’s gameplay loop is simple, but wonderfully executed. The overwhelmingly powerful rebel pursuit is only ever a few jumps behind, and every sector brings stronger enemies. The all-important scrap is then used to improve the ship or trade for necessities like fuel and missiles, new weapons, and hiring additional crewmembers. Jumping from system to system, players gather scrap from lucky salvage jobs, help non-hostile crews and planets, and engage in combat. The tiny indie studio at Subset Games expertly joins RPG progression mechanics, simple text-adventure dilemmas, multi-faceted one-on-one starship combat, and the ironman challenge of a roguelike in FTL. FTL brings that drama to life in the framework of a single ship’s desperate flight through randomly generated sectors to warn the Empire of a coming Rebel attack. The commander slams full power to the shields while the pilot evades enemy fire and the engineer works to bring the engines back online and vents the cargo hold to kill the raging fires before they spread to the oxygen plant: This is the tightrope walked by some of our greatest sci-fi heroes from Han Solo to Mal Reynolds. Mono di twins4/3/2023 There was no difference in the primary adverse neonatal composite outcome between twins A in the monochorionic-diamniotic group and the dichorionic-diamniotic group (1.2% vs 1.3% P=.89) or between twins B in similar groups (2.3% vs 2.7% P=.47). Within the planned cesarean delivery arm, the rate of primary adverse neonatal composite outcome was higher in twins B than twins A (3.2% vs 1.2% P=.03). As for perinatal outcomes, the rate of the primary adverse neonatal composite outcomes in twins A or twins B was similar in both the planned vaginal delivery and the planned cesarean delivery arms (twins A, 1.2% vs 1.2% twins B, 1.2% vs 3.2% ). No difference was found in maternal outcomes. There was no significant difference in gestational age at delivery between the groups (34.4☑.8 weeks vs 34.5☑.8 weeks P=.78). The rate of cesarean delivery was 39.2% in the planned vaginal delivery arm and was 91.3% in the planned cesarean delivery arm. Out of the 1393 women in each arm, 346 (24.9%) women in the planned cesarean delivery arm and 324 (23.3%) women in the planned vaginal delivery arm had monochorionic-diamniotic twin pregnancies and were eligible for the first analysis. In addition, outcomes of monochorionic-diamniotic twin pregnancies were compared with those of dichorionic-diamniotic twin pregnancies. Perinatal and maternal outcomes of monochorionic-diamniotic twin pregnancies were compared between those randomized for planned cesarean delivery and those randomized for planned vaginal delivery. Elective delivery was planned between 37 weeks and 5 to 7 days of gestation and 38 weeks and 6 to 7 days of gestation. Pregnancies complicated by fetal reduction after 13 weeks of gestation, lethal fetal anomaly, or contraindication to vaginal delivery were excluded. Twin A in the cephalic presentation and estimated weight of each twin between 15 grams were the inclusion criteria. Women were randomized from 32 weeks and 0 days gestation to 38 weeks and 6 days gestation to planned cesarean delivery or planned vaginal delivery. This study is a secondary analysis of the Twin Birth Study. This study aimed to compare perinatal and maternal outcomes of planned cesarean delivery and planned vaginal delivery of monochorionic-diamniotic twins using the Twin Birth Study data. The current literature regarding the recommended mode of delivery of monochorionic-diamniotic twins is limited to small numbers, retrospective studies, and comparisons of outcomes of monochorionic-diamniotic twin pregnancies with those of dichorionic-diamniotic twin pregnancies instead of outcomes of trial of labor vs elective cesarean delivery of monochorionic-diamniotic twins.
Blood bowl halflings4/2/2023 GW had a fun tongue in cheek approach to fantasy with its Warhammer Fantasy Battles and Rogue Trader, so I had to adjust to halflings being the incompetent faction, but it was ok. It wasn’t too much longer after this, I started to fall into Games Workshop gaming. Now, I had actual mechanics to run the sort of small hero I had been building on my own. Above is the Jim Holloway (RIP) piece featured for the article, and this issue of Dragon Magazine became my most used throughout the rest of AD&D 1e’s lifespan. The above Jeff Dee illustration solidified my idea of the heroic halfling and remains one of my favorite D&D pieces ever.Įventually, January 1988 came around and with it the Halfling Defender subclass in dragon Magazine #129. It wasn’t too much longer after that, when my father brought home the Dungeons and Dragons basic box on a whim. The idea of this meek, diminutive individual rising up to punch above his weight class resonated. The ‘Samwise the Strong’ sequence at the beginning of Return of the King was the first memory I have of a literary character invoking an emotion in me. Going back to the beginning, like most gamers of my generation, some of my earliest experiences with fantasy were the classic Rankin Bass Lord of the Rings movies, The Hobbit and Return of the King. I can get behind them being a joke team, but I’d still like them to look like a…well…sports team. I guess I was never a fan of all the kitchenware on their models.

"Roots" produced by Parker Corey and Pasqué has a melancholy and almost dark essence to it sonically. He then proceeds to spit a more relaxed final verse. The silver lining of the song's messaging is the bridge before Aminé switches up the beat and that's to not let anger control you. The griminess of the rapping goes so well with the edgy bass-heavy production. He even references the Arthur closed-fist meme. The posse cut is a lyrical sparring of all three rappers.Īminé mails punch lines citing culturally entertaining moments where a celebrity behaved in anger or belligerence. The beat comprises a catchy bassline, a resounding trap beat, and a mesmerizing hook with an almost intimidating "pressure on my palms". One of the project's standouts comes right on the brink of its second half, "Pressure on my Palms" with Vince Staples and Slowthai. Limbo doesn't shy away from reflecting on the current times. He reps his hometown from-the-get-go in the ever so morbid intro track, "Burden" with the line, “ You know I'm hailing from that Rip City, get busy.” During a virtual album playback with the press, the artist shared, “Yeah, Portland's fucking going crazy right now, unfortunately.” It's timely that an artist from Portland puts out a meaningful body of work. On Wednesday, Aminé hosted a small virtual press event to talk about the album and some other things in the works. According to Oregon Live, the demonstrations are occurring as Portland's seen more than double the number of shootings in July than the same time last year and 15 people killed - the most in one month in more than 30 years, according to police. The city of Portland has been going through months of protesting against police brutality and excessive force, and those left have been experiencing violent rushes and tear gas attacks in their streets for over two months since the start of the Black Lives Matter movements. The second full-length offering was executively produced by Pasqué and Aminé himself. The proud, Portland-bred rapper, artist, and director, Aminé, has delivered a new 14-track LP Limbo featuring a slew of guest appearances including, Vince Staples, Charlie Wilson, Summer Walker, Slowthai, Injury Reserve, Young Thug, and Daniel Caesar.
