![]() The graphics of the Sword Girls is a rare combination of 2D hand painted cards influenced by anime art. For Sita Vilosa, SkyHigh student and part-time monster hunter, life is about to change. While peace has returned to the world, talentium has created a new era where the same magic that was once used to wage war is being put to everyday use. Once forged, talentium swords granted their bearers magical powers that were able to put an end to the monstrous horde. Their rampage was stopped only by the discovery of a mysterious metal known as talentium. The story of Sword Girls speaks about a world not so different from our own was overrun by monsters of an unknown origin. Is very easy to learn and master compared to other complicated card titles all is done without sacrificing anything from the strategic tactical side of the game. Sword Girls is free to play and works on any web browser or flash-enabled mobile device, you will be able to play it on smart phones, net books, tablets, and other devices like that. The ceasefire gives you an opportunity to prepare yourself, and every Crux Follower you control has its SIZE reduced by 1, giving you room to send out even more Followers and Spells.Sword Girls is an 2D Browser Based, collectible Card MMO Game featuring artistic anime artwork and strategic gameplay. However, Pacifism isn’t entirely passive. In short, whatever Spells are out will be cast, but no one’s going to be doing any attacking. When Pacifism is cast, all Followers, both allied and enemy, are deactivated. Double Rares are the hardest cards to get in the entire game, and are often capable of turning a battle around. Pacifism is a unique and powerful Double Rare card. Speaking of which, who is that girl in the background? Could she be related to the fourth Sword Girls faction? You’ll all find out next time, but there’s still one more card to go. It’s a simple, but very effective Spell that lets you prepare for a larger attack, or react quickly to the appearance of an unexpected foe. She’ll take hits, but if she survives long enough, her boosted Defense will shrug off any attack direct at her, and her boosted Attack will counter for serious damage.Ĭlose Encounter is a Spell that grants two Attack and two Stamina to two Crux Followers. Every time she’s attacked by a Follower with a smaller Size, her Attack and Defense rise by one each. Most are rated from 1-5, and Pintail is a 4. ![]() The cards in your Field can only have a total size of up to 10 at once. This is a rough measure of its power, but mainly exists to place a limit on how many cards you can have in play at one time. Luthica is an inspiring figure, and at the start of every turn, a Crux Follower under her command has its Attack and Stamina raised by one each, allowing it to hit harder and last longer.Ĭrux Knight Pintail is a formidable Follower. Since then, she’s proven herself time and time again, and she leads the charge wherever she goes. Rescued at an early age by Head Knight Jaina, Luthica repaid the favor by joining the Crux Knights. They have both the skill and the determination to vanquish darkness, wherever they find it.Ĭrux Knight Luthica is the star Character of Crux. These aren’t mere students, but a standing army of holy warriors who once saved the world from a deadly invasion from another realm. The second is the order of Crux Knights, soldiers who protect Crux and humanity from whatever dark creatures lurk in the night. The first is their devotion to their faith. The game’s third faction is Crux, famous for two things. ChangYou has unveiled the third faction of Sword Girls, its anime-style online card game about swords, sorcery, and schoolgirls.

![]() Maybe bring that up a little bit, and I'm gonna under expose that a little bit more. That should resolve some of the peaking we saw going on there. So, begin with the sky and just drag the exposure in a bit. So that's already looking better, but let's going in with our graduated filters and make this even nicer. If I bring it right up, it's gonna look pretty nasty, but maybe I can use the graduated filters to fine tune that. I want to make sure that the dark areas aren't too bad, and I just wanna make sure that I'm not bringing in too much noise. Let's try to compensate for the overexposure, and bring in the whites in, and that's looking a little more balanced. And try to bring up the exposure a little bit, and I don't wanna do it too much. But lets begin by pulling in some of the shadow detail. So this was a slight oversight on my part. Now, if I look at my settings here, it's quite dark there, so when I introduce some brightness I'm gonna possibly introduce some noise as well. So let's begin by developing the first image. So let's increase the thumbnails, so we start off there and then we end up here. So it's taking a moment to read them still and in a second we should have our freaky frame. What I'll also do is filter, so I'm only seeing the key frames and then I can get to work. So this is gonna load the sequence based on the LRT settings. Should, start to complain that there is conflicting metadata, so I'm gonna right-click, choose Metadata > Read from Files. Now I can dive into Lightroom and start playing with these images. Once that's all done, I'm gonna click on Save. So, this is gonna come over here and click to add an additional key frame. And it's gonna add a key frame at the end, but I also want to add a third key frame, this time, just as the sun sets, I want to add one about there. Keyframe Wizard, ignore the setting about Holy Grail because I didn't use that technique. I want it to darken a little bit, and also I want the hue to shift. ![]() What I want to do is create a number of key frames, and create a color transition overtime, because it stays relatively light when it gets to the end. And we can see there's a lot of flickering going on here, and the light just seems to be pulsing, but other than that it doesn't look so bad. Let's preview the time lapse, see what we got. So it begins with 1 over 160, and if I scroll to the end, you can see that it ended up about one-sixth. So I have a shifting shutter speed overtime. ![]() This is the lapse that was shot using the aperture priority mode. So I'm back in LR Timelapse and I'm looking at the sunset time-lapse that I did up on the hill. The intensity of the work, the level of concentration, are all levels that make other alchemists marvel when they see it. In order to refine the pile of elixir in front of him, Chen An basically never went out today, and spent the whole day in the medicine hall refining elixir. In fact, once there are too many medicinal pills, it will definitely depreciate, and it may not be accepted by Qingfengge. One day is thirty o’clock, so in one month there are nine hundred. It’s just the result of a day’s labor today.

Here, describing Linda's sexually provocative entrance into the Fertilizing Room. Voluptuous sexually attractive because of a full, shapely figure. The descriptions remind the reader of the essential difference between Malpais and London - natural birth versus the bottling and decanting of fetuses - and prepares for the revelation of Linda and her son, the actual, physical reality that the Fertilizing Room is designed to replace. Note how Huxley returns the action to London with a few descriptive references to familiar surroundings - the Social Predestination Room, the Nurseries, and at last the Fertilizing Room, where the scene takes place. Young and handsome, he conforms to Fordian expectations, while offering the possibility of surprise and sexual interest as well. The scene makes clear that Linda will never be accepted back into the society of Fordian London, but that John may be welcomed as an exotic curiosity. "My father!" - incites only uncontrollable laughter among the workers. John's heartfelt declaration, on his knees before the D.H.C. Linda's appearance - aging, bloated, coarse from hard living without chemical enhancement - seems to be the ultimate punishment for becoming a mother, and the assembled workers shrink from her in horror. The return home does not come up to either Linda's or John's high expectations, however. In later chapters, Bernard will reap the reward of this masterful surprise, not only avoiding punishment but improving his social status. suddenly shocked into silent terror and revulsion makes the victory a satisfying one for the reader, despite Bernard's characteristic falseness and vindictiveness. The vision of the pompous and hypocritical D.H.C. is being hypocritical.īernard's dramatic introduction of the middle-aged Linda and her son - the horrifying proof of the D.H.C.'s social sins - represents a brilliant counter-attack, a public humiliation that undercuts the D.H.C.'s moral authority to punish Bernard. In making an example of Bernard for his behavior, then, the D.H.C. The D.H.C.'s plan to chastise Bernard publicly before banishing him for his unorthodox behavior is, the Director maintains, a necessity for social stability, but the D.H.C.'s pious protectiveness of the social order masks his real reason for punishing Bernard - concern about Bernard's revealing his unconventional feelings for Linda. This short chapter features the reversal of fortune that sets into motion the events that dominate the rest of the novel. ![]() "my father," laughter breaks out among the crowd.

All files uploaded to Dropbox cant exceed your storage space quota. I like CloudPlayer’s elegant interface and appreciate how well it handles music stored online. Cloud services like Google Play Music, Amazon Cloud Player, and Dropbox can sync. It’s really a matter of whether you’re already paying for storage space and if you use it for music. That’s not bad, if you have loads of music stored online and don’t have access to on-demand music services like Spotify.ĬloudPlayer also offers a few advantages over services like Google Play Music: It doesn’t compress your tracks while streaming, limit the number of times you can download a track, or restrict how many devices you can use it with.Īnother option for taking your audio library with you is Style Jukebox, which offers room for 3,000 tracks in their original format and support for two linked devices for free, or 25,000 songs for $25 a year.

If you have music files that are in WMA, FLAC. The paid version can store 250,000 songs. If you wish to upload more songs to your cloud storage beyond the 250 file ceiling, you can go with the paid version which is 24.99 a year. Use it as an offline music player or link. The free version of Cloud Player can’t hold your entire music library because you are only limited to 250 songs. The ‘widening’ option seemed to just cut all the bass and most of the mids from the output, and I don’t see how that helps any kind of audio. CloudPlayer is a revolutionary music player that puts you in control of your music, no matter where its stored. The EQ and sound options didn’t do much for me when I tested them on my headphones and 2.1 desktop speakers.

Henry Ford said, “If you think you can’t or you think you can, you’re right.” Once we think we can, we will find a way!Īs I stated earlier, your customers don’t want to hear “I can’t”. All we need to do is change our thinking from “I can’t” to “I can”. When push came to shove, with a little extra effort and some creativity thinking and doing, of course it was possible to find a way to find my package. It was delivered the next day, just in time for the wedding. My husband gave her the information, and my package was found. If my husband could remember what day and time he came in, and the charge for the package, she could find the tracking number from the report. Excitedly she told me that she had found a way to create a report in the system that showed all the tracking numbers and the shipping dates, times and charges. The manager of the satellite post office didn’t seem very happy as she said that she had done all that she could.Ī few minutes later, however, I got a call back from the manager at the satellite post office. I called the satellite post office to let them know that someone from USPS would be working with them to find my package, as they were the ones who had originally accepted it. “Someone from the post office will contact you within 48 hours, after they’ve worked with the satellite post office to find out where your package is.” That is why they do business with your company.īecause I don’t believe in “I can’t”, I pressed the USPS representative a little further and she opened a ticket to look into the disappearance of my package. Whether you are shipping packages, processing financial transactions, or repairing cars, your customers expect you to be able to fulfill their wants and needs. Now let me tell you, what customers DO NOT want to hear is “I can’t”. We can’t do anything if your package doesn’t get delivered and you don’t have your receipt with the tracking number.” We don’t keep records of who sent the package or destinations. We can’t do anything to help you.” She did, however, give me the number to call the US Postal Service to have the package tracked directly.Īfter navigating my way through the tricky USPS phone tree – unless you have a tracking number for the package you can’t talk with a representative – the agent confirmed what the recording stated: “Unless you have your tracking number, printed on your receipt, we can’t help you. The manager confirmed it, “We can’t reprint any USPS receipts. “No problem”, I thought to myself, “I’ll just go over to the satellite post office and ask them to reprint the receipt for me.” When I got to the satellite post office, located in a local pharmacy, the clerk told me that it was impossible to reprint receipts for postal items. When I asked my husband for the receipt with the tracking number, he had to admit that he had misplaced it. On Friday, I checked with my friends, and yes, you guessed it, the package hadn’t been delivered. The package was sent Priority Mail and was scheduled to arrive on Thursday – two days before the happy couple’s wedding day. Well, actually my husband mailed the package as I was traveling. A few weeks ago, I mailed a wedding present to some friends. ![]() They assert that the discovery of life in multiple planets would prove that the “origin of life from a suitable prebiotic soup of chemical compounds must be so straightforward and easy that it’s not necessary to invoke God as a causal agent (Hugh Ross, Does the Bible say we’re alone in the universe?).”īut, despite the hodge-podge of atheists’ and skeptics’ anti-creationist assertions, recent scientific investigations (what with the advanced state-of-the-art technology like the SETI enterprise) tend to bespeak that we, humans, are alone in the universe.Īlex Berezow, science writer and executive editor of “Big Think” online portal, contends that “the belief that humans eventually will encounter aliens is based on two assumptions: 1) that life evolves easily and, 2) that interstellar travel is possible and practical but neither of these two assumptions is likely to be true.” These scientific SETI efforts invariably seek to answer a question posed since time immemorial: Are we alone in the universe? Or are there other extraterrestrial beings elsewhere?Ītheists and skeptics have argued that the discovery of extraterrestrial life of any kind would be disastrous to Christian faith. ![]() China’s 500-meter (1,600-foot diameter) Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST), the largest radio telescope in the world was built as a core scientific goal and has been employed for SETI. |
