Erica ellyson porn videos hd forums4/30/2024 I did some more tweaks, but I m not so lucky with the icon set, goin to change them when I find some that fit better My bootscreen (made it myself using a pic i found on deviantart) When Firefox is closed, I have a very friendly use of RAM, but my Firefox is a memhogĪnd the usual stuff like WeatherBug, NetVideoHunter, ABP, NoScript, TabScope, UndoClosedTab, DownloadHelper, Fission, Linkification, Veoh Video Compass and Veoh Video Web Player Finder, Extendet Statusbar, Download Statusbar. ini for my own taste, changed font and size in GenericsĪnd changed calender from english to german Pack 3,Īnd a pack called "NextBlack OS" but I forgot where I found it._(īut i modified the. Also James Bond’s author appears on the film which is a nice cameo/tribute.Hey Sharu could you post specs like what OS you're using I presume that looks like Linux ? This movie could be helped by a little more momentum in the end, because it drags a little on its third act, but overall it was a very worthwhile watch. Some of the momentary conflicts feel artificially created to push the story forward.Īlso, call me old-fashioned but I couldn’t feel invested in the relationship between a married man and a growing love affair with a younger woman, so it wasn’t as engaging to me when the film desperately wanted to make this romance feel tragic. This makes the story and the characters feel more fleshed out and the story has better pacing for it. Now as we approach the most important moments of the external conflict (the body arriving in Spain and into Nazi hands), also this love triangle starts to expose the lies and feelings that have been growing in the background. Although they are both men of duty, and initially become friends, the arrival of Jean Leslie starts creating jealousy and suspicion amongst both men, since they are both interested in her romantically. We have two main characters who are in charge of this operation. However, we have another conflict brewing slowly in the background. 1: fooling the Nazis and preventing a bloodbath in Sicily. Even if one of them is not as upfront and has lower stakes than the other. When watching a movie, it is usually more engaging, compelling, and overall interesting if we have two main conflicts that are closely intertwined. This movie is not a revolutionary tale, however, it certainly knows how to use internal and external conflict to its advantage. On top of this, add a layer of interpersonal conflict between our leads and you’ve got yourself a pretty good film. Well, basically dropping a corpse disguised as a British soldier near the coast of Spain, and hoping that the fake documents and letters he carries reach all the way to the Nazi top in hopes that they lower their defenses on Sicily so that the British can attack and free the city. So, what was this operation about? you may ask. This was an actual successful operation that helped cement the Allied victory over the Nazi regime and the Axis forces. It tells the story of a British covert operation during World War II to fool the Nazis into thinking the Allies would attack Greece when in reality the plan was to attack Sicily. Directed by John Madden and starring Colin Firth, Kelly Macdonald, Matthew Macfadyen, Penelope Wilton, Johnny Flynn, and Jason Isaacs. Operation Mincemeat is one of the latest Netflix films.

January color by number flowers4/30/2024 A warm up next week will probably push it into bloom, and then it will flower into March. Yesterday, I saw a few scattered flowers on winter jasmines (Jasmine nudilforum, above) in the neighborhood, but mine are showing only a hint of yellow. With typical January temperatures it should begin to bloom near the end of February, though it seems a bit ahead of schedule. It is showing a bit of color, but not enough to figure that it will burst into flower any time soon. A week into January the yellow blooms are only slightly past their peak, so I expect that partially shaded plants will show color for another couple weeks.Ī year ago the late winter flowering leatherleaf mahonia (Mahonia bealei, above) began to bloom by the middle of January, and checking it today there seems no possibility that it will again this year. The flowers of Winter Sun’ mahonia (Mahonia x media ‘Winter Sun’, above) are little bothered by cold, and in fact consistently cold weather prolongs the flowering from mid November into January. I’ve made an effort in recent years to plant winter flowering plants to shorten this dreary season, and in cold temperatures these often bloom for extended periods. For the first time there were flowers in the garden every day through the winter, and so also every day of the year. The winter was more typical of two states to the south, but with just enough spells of cold to satisfy plants that require a number of cooling days to flower. Last winter’s extremely mild temperatures convinced me that I could be content without much cold at all. A few days of cold are exaggerated to pretend that wherever they are is as cold as areas a few states to the north. Somehow, I feel slightly apologetic that northwestern Virginia doesn’t suffer Arctic temperatures and is just mild enough that a few hardy souls are able to eek out sporadic blooms through the eight weeks that is the worst of our winter. I don’t pretend to understand the psychology of it, but even residents of the deep South are quick to assure that they have “real” winters. I sense I’m a bit of defensive when writing about mid-winter flowers in my garden.

Gestalt principle similarity4/29/2024 Research suggests that implicit racial prejudice and stereotypes affect perception. Built from sensations, but influenced by our own experiences, biases, prejudices, and cultures, perceptions can be very different from person to person. In this chapter, you have learned that perception is a complex process. The Depths of Perception: Bias, Prejudice, and Cultural Factors Presumably, our ability to interpret sensory information depends on what we label as figure and what we label as ground in any particular case, although this assumption has been called into question (Peterson & Gibson, 1994 Vecera & O’Reilly, 1998). As shows, our perception can vary tremendously, depending on what is perceived as figure and what is perceived as ground. Figure is the object or person that is the focus of the visual field, while the ground is the background. According to this principle, we tend to segment our visual world into figure and ground. One Gestalt principle is the figure-ground relationship. As a result, Gestalt psychology has been extremely influential in the area of sensation and perception (Rock & Palmer, 1990). Gestalt psychologists translated these predictable ways into principles by which we organize sensory information. In other words, the brain creates a perception that is more than simply the sum of available sensory inputs, and it does so in predictable ways. The word gestalt literally means form or pattern, but its use reflects the idea that the whole is different from the sum of its parts. This belief led to a new movement within the field of psychology known as Gestalt psychology. Wertheimer, and his assistants Wolfgang Köhler and Kurt Koffka, who later became his partners, believed that perception involved more than simply combining sensory stimuli. In the early part of the 20th century, Max Wertheimer published a paper demonstrating that individuals perceived motion in rapidly flickering static images-an insight that came to him as he used a child’s toy tachistoscope. Describe how perceptual set is influenced by an individual’s characteristics and mental state.By the end of this section, you will be able to:

Best games in mac app store4/29/2024 The near-future setting allows the game to introduce plenty of high-tech weapons and powered-up body armour, and the shoot-em-up action comes fast and furious – even if the globe-trotting missions can feel a bit generic at times. This includes the main single-player campaign, which is set in 2065 and kicks off with you being sent on a mission to rescue the Prime Minister of Egypt who is being held prisoner somewhere in Ethiopia. There are also three options for buying the game, starting with the Zombies Chronicle Edition priced at £44.99/$59.99. Like most games that use Apple’s Metal graphics system, Black Ops III has some pretty steep system requirements, so make sure your Mac can handle the game before breaking out your credit card. There’s a bit of ground to cover before you dive in here. System requirements: Mac with OS X v10.13.6, quad-core 2.3GHz Intel Core i5, AMD Radeon graphics card with 2GB VRAM You can buy the game on the App Store as well – but it’s more expensive (£19.99) and you only get the remastered version for newer Macs.Ĭall Of Duty: Black Ops 3 – Zombie Chronicles EditionĬompany: Aspyr Where to buy: Steam (£44.99/$59.99) It’s only compatible with Catalina (macOS 10.15), but when you buy the game on Steam you also get the original version as well, which will still run on older versions of macOS. The remastered version of the game includes enhanced, high-res graphics, suitable for modern 4K displays. However, Eleanor has been kidnapped, so you once more set off to explore Rapture and free Eleanor from her captors. Your task is to protect your ‘little sister’, Eleanor, who helps to harvest the special genetic materials that create the Big Daddies and other mutated inhabitants of Rapture. This sequel takes place eight years later, and casts you in the role of a ‘Big Daddy’, a kind of genetically enhanced cyborg, who wields a variety of special powers and weapons to combat the weird inhabitants of Rapture. Both games are set in the underwater city of Rapture, which provides a wonderfully atmospheric – and somewhat leaky – setting for this shoot ’em up action game. The original Bioshock was actually released back in 2007, and got a ‘remastered’ update back in 2018, but the Bioshock 2 sequel has only just received its own remastered edition on the Mac. It also provides a wider range of combat options, allowing you to bat-glide over the rooftops or to go sneaking around the dark streets in search of clues. Taking the game outdoors was a smart move, allowing the game’s designers to create an impressive and atmospheric Gotham City, full of gothic landmarks and narrow, grimy alleyways. The previous Batman game was set in the claustrophobic confines of Gotham City’s infamous Arkham Asylum, but this time around the action expands onto a much larger canvas, as a section of Gotham City has been walled off and turned into a vast open-air prison ruled over by a selection of Batman’s greatest foes. System requirements: macOS 10.14, 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB RAM, 16GB hard disk space, 512Mb Nvidia 640M, 1.5GB Intel HD4000, 2GB AMD 290M or newer However, the game’s system requirements are pretty high, so you should check that your Mac is up to it before buying the game. This ‘collection’ also includes a number of bonus missions, including Crew Expendable, which re-enacts events from the original Alien film. Added Kindle, Microsoft OneNote, TickTick, Friendly for Twitter, Tweetdeck, and PhotoFeed - for Instagram.The game creates a real sense of tension, and the computer-controlled alien is smart enough to provide a really formidable foe. If you don't see your favorite free Mac app on this list, please add it in the comments section with your reason for why it stands out (Remember: It has to be truly free, or the free version of an otherwise premium app that is noteworthy.)Īugust 2019: Removed apps that are no longer free or available.

Sexy hot girl anime4/29/2024 This DS title is probably best described a girlfriend simulator. Love Plus isn’t actually all that pervy on the sexy games scale – it’s just a little creepy. Even if you’re not in it for the sexy games angle, it’s well worth playing regardless! It’s an odd fusion of styles, which, somehow, really works. In between the, I have to say, gorgeous anime scenes and story bits – you have Vincents nightmares – which play out as challenging block puzzles. The decisions you make throughout the game will affect which direction you take along with a pretty outrageous twist. As the lead character Vincent, you have to choose between Katherine with a K – who’s basically all about marriage and settling down and responsibility – and on the other hand you have Catherine, the attractive seductive blonde. One the one side you have a game which is very much narrative driven. Originally on 360 and PS3 – Atlus’ Catherine has had a much awaited re-release and remaster. Lord have mercy – that is one hell of a concept. The question is, how do you think you get your super weapon to work? How do you make her more powerful? By totally getting it on with her, that’s how. This girl also happens to be a super weapon. Mechanically, this is pretty good and a very fun beat em up – but here’s the thing – you have a partner in the game, another girl. An island where you have to fight a whole bunch of robots and stuff. Okay, hold on to your hats folks, because as sexy games go, the premise of this one is AMAZING.īasically, you’re on an island with a whole load of other girls. If every there was a game that made that headset worthwhile then this is is. While Double Peace if perhaps seen as the favourite among fans, Gal*Gun 2 is particularly interesting as it ups the visual ante somewhat, is available on Switch and, crucially is also one of the few sexy games playable in VR if you’re so inclined. These stay firmly in the rail-shooting-against-hordes-of-giddy-girls-vying-for-your-attention genre. If you scroll further down this list you’ll find the original Gal*Gun, but since I originally wrote this, two further Gal*Gun games have been released – Double Peace and more recently Gal*Gun 2. Beware though, there are two version of this game, a marginally lewd version on Steam and then a REALLY LEWD version that you can buy from placed like The good thing about Hunie Pop is, well, it’s actually quite a decent game. Once you get them home you get to Match 3 your way to nudity and er… closing the deal, as it were. Win enough Match 3 puzzles on dates and you get to take them home. Win enough match-3 puzzle action and you’ll increase your relationship level with them to the point you can take them on dates. It’s basically a match 3 puzzle dating sim – where you have to woo the ladies by stalking them around town, buying them gifts and chatting them up in bars. This, my disgusting friends, is a guide to my top sexy games for perverts. Frantically try to close your browser as your boss enters the office… and remember to remove all traces of sexy games from your history. Secretly feel aroused at the wrongness within. Feel the shame welling up inside you as you continue to browse.

The more you stretch the rubber band, the more potential energy is stored, and the farther and faster the car should go.This article may contain affiliate links. When you release it, the rubber band starts to unwind, and the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy or movement as the car is propelled forward. Similar, when you wind up the car’s axle you stretch the rubber band and store potential energy. When you launch your rubber band across the room (or at someone), the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy, or the energy of motion. When you release it, all that stored energy has to go somewhere. Have you ever stretched a rubber band and let it go? When you stretch a rubber band it stores a type of potential energy.

Cardinal movements song mnemonic labor4/28/2024 In between contractions, when the uterus is relaxed and the muscular wall is soft, you will be able to palpate the fetal parts. You can assess the strength of uterine contractions for yourself by palpating the woman’s abdomen in the area of the fundus (top) of the uterus. The woman tells you that her contractions feel strong this is the intensity of contractions.Each contraction lasts 40–60 seconds this is known as the duration of contractions.The frequency of uterine contractions will be 3-5 times in every 10 minute period.If true labour is progressing, there will be adequate uterine contraction, evaluated on the basis of three features - the frequency, the duration and the intensity of the contractions: We have to leave these questions unanswered, and focus on the normal labour occurring at term.ġ.2.1 What is adequate uterine contraction? Why do unpredicted labour abnormalities occur?.Why do some women develop preterm labour?.What initiates/stimulates labour to begin? Is it factors in the fetus, the mother or both?. The other major indefinite features of labour are: Only about 2% of deliveries occur on the expected date even among women who know their LNMP date exactly. Although it is good to calculate the expected date of delivery as 40 weeks from the mother’s last normal menstrual period (LNMP), if she knows the date (many mothers do not), tell her that she is probably not going to deliver on the expected date. That is why even the normal onset of labour is anticipated in a wide range of weeks (at Health Post level 37–40 weeks is considered the normal ‘window’ at hospital level, it can be at 37–42 weeks with close follow up using ultrasound scanning). Despite much advancement of maternal and fetal health sciences, so far nobody knows exactly: This is one of its ‘indefinite’ features, so you should always be ready to take appropriate action. You need to be aware that labour may start at any time. You will also learn how to prepare the pregnant woman to become aware of the changes in her body that indicate labour will start soon, and how to recognise the onset of true labour, so she can send for you to come in good time. This session will help you to understand the labour and delivery process, so that you can make accurate decisions and feel confident when you attend births. The emphasis is on helping you make the diagnosis of true labour and distinguishing it from false labour, and recognising the signs of the four stages of labour. This first study session serves as an introduction to the Labour and Delivery Care Module. Labour heralds the end of the baby’s time in the uterus and the beginning of adaptation to life outside the mother. In the majority of cases, this happens when the baby is fully developed at full term, between 37-40 weeks gestation. Labour is the term for the changes in anatomy and physiology in the female reproductive tract that prepare the fetus and the placenta for delivery. Now you are moving on to learn about Labour and Delivery Care. You have already studied the Module on Antenatal Care. Ideally the same health professional will look after the pregnant woman and her baby from the first antenatal visit until the end of the postnatal period.
