Grace guts and goals7/12/2023 ![]() She had a great relationship with her boss and she loved her work. She had already racked up a string of successes in her short time in the workforce. She was a high-potential millennial powerhouse, working in a Fortune 500 Company in the field of sustainability. "I wanted to understand how I could become an even more effective leader, while also achieving more balance and fulfillment in my life." “He is in a battle and I wasn’t sure how he would respond to that but he’s played really well,” Wilson said.Megan decided to hire a coach and join a mastermind because she was forward-thinking in spirit, and she wanted to preemptively shift any questionable unconscious habits now, lest they become bigger liabilities later in her career. The Swedish defenceman started slowly last year and was scratched 13 times before resuscitating his season in the New Year. Wilson has been impressed with Carl Gunnarsson’s good start. Lombardi feels better with each day and will be re-examined next week. The Leafs coach feels veteran Matt Lombardi is probably ahead of Sidney Crosby in recovering from concussion. You want that first quick one of the year and just kind of build on that.”…One of the luxuries of the MasterCard Centre? The abundance of ice allowed the Leafs to walk over to a fresh sheet across the hall near the end of practice. He will play Friday as the Leafs host the Sabres…After two goals in Philadelphia, rookie Matt Frattin says he is skating more easily. Notes: Tim Connolly was given the day away from the rink for personal reasons. Not all hockey players spend every moment on the ice trying to stay.īoyce said it all and along the way gave the journeyman’s creed.Īs long as he is able to breathe, he should be ok. “He ripped half his nose off (last year) and he still came back and played,” Wilson said. Shelley declined to attend the hearing in Toronto. Thursday, Brendan Shanahan, the league’s new master of discipline will do his. Shelley, who earns his keep by driving his body into other people’s sternums, picked the wrong moment. His linemate Jay Rosehill immediately jumped into the fray and pumped right hands into Shelley’s face, probably as the Flyers veteran was processing what he had done a moment before. It is as human as human nature gets and it is therefore often ugly, especially when reviewed frame by video frame.īut give a little time and the game’s other pillar value, grace, comes into play. It reveals itself over a millisecond and then mutates into something different in the next. When you add ice to the game, the only thing that doesn’t speed up, that can’t speed up, is judgment. “It’s definitely not that slow when you are out there on the ice.” “It’s tough to just look on tape and slow it down and stuff like that,” Boyce said. Unless you are there it’s impossible to know what it is like…and how you would react. It belongs to the players the same way 350 km/h belongs to Indy Car drivers. The thin red line is where none of us can go. Sometimes, emotion clouds judgment, Wilson said.”You stop thinking for just a split second.” Players live on the margin of catastrophe, giving it or receiving it. ![]() Wilson said he knew Shelley was remorseful. “I know Jody, I coached him a number of years,” said Leafs coach Ron Wilson. A careless, perhaps wicked move from a player whose reputation within the game absolved any notion of malice. Second best hockey quote of the year, again from Boyce: “The game is so fast with all the split second decisions, I’m sure he didn’t mean to do it.” ![]() With all the talk of head injuries and respect and suspensions, of Sidney Crosby and a new head shot rule and the summer of the concussions, Shelley, a player with 18 goals and 1,600 penalty minutes accrued over nearly 600 games, drove his elbow into the small of Boyce’s back with the blue number 47 as visible to Shelley as neon. Shelley cruises up behind him and shoves Boyce, catapulting him into the boards. You will see Boyce beat everyone to the puck. “I just had to make clear everything was up there in the head.” “It was just a minor setback up there in the second,” Boyce said, sounding a little apologetic. An undersized 27-year-old plugger from PEI who last year Tweeted pictures of that battered nose being re-assembled gets back into the game in the third period. As long as I am able to breathe I should be OK.”Īs long as I am able to breathe, I should be OK. “It’s more or less just trying to get passages to breathe through with my nose,” he said. Darryl Boyce is in the Leafs dressing room at Master Card Centre, explaining that the broken nose he incurred when hit headfirst into the boards by the Flyers’ Jody Shelley is a little problematic.

Limbo 20207/12/2023 ![]() He calls his parents over the phone, where they tell him about their struggle as well, as they live in Turkey, while his brother Nabil remains in Syria to fight for his country. He feels alone and out of place, while he's an aspiring musician who plays the oud, he never played since he left Syria, and due to a hand injury he remains unable to play. Omar doesn't say much, but his eyes says it all. He lives with three other immigrants from other nationalities and they live in a small house in the middle of nowhere, while they attend cultural awareness sessions to develop their social skills. The story follows the young Syrian Omar (Amir El-Masry) who ends up in a remote Scottish island until he finds out if he's granted asylum. This film is so beautifully made and is very touching and moving. Finally Amir El-Masry is such a talented actor, who could be the next Rami Malek, who knows.I came across this film and I felt intrigued to see it and I'm glad I did. This is one of those rare films that is so human and it's brilliance lies in its simplicity yet it has such great emotional depth. Also the depiction of Arab songs was lovely especially the song in the end titles by Magda El Romi. The writer and director Ben Sharrock was able to capture the inner feelings of an Arab in a foreign country, and the Cinematography of the vast landscape with very beautiful. The film has a lot of other moving stories related to the other immigrants and Omar's relationship with his brother, as all of them highlight how cruel it is for any refugee who's forced to leave his country and venture into the unknown, while leaving his loved ones behind and facing a world he doesn't recognize or belong to. Omar walks everywhere with his oud case which was given to him by his grandfather, maybe because he doesn't want to lose it, as it's the only thing he has left that reminds him of his old life. But now he just wanders the open roads and fields, and he just talks with his roommate Farhad, who's been waiting for more than two years for his asylum claim. Omar struggles with his memories of his life with his family back home, where they used to grow apricots and sing old songs, and he used to play oud in front of audience. Omar feels that he's not good enough as his brave brother who wasn't afraid to stay in his war-torn country, while he's haunted by his father's words who keeps reminding him " a musician who doesn't play, is a dead man". ![]() ![]() I came across this film and I felt intrigued to see it and I'm glad I did.

Beasts of maravilla island gameplay7/12/2023 ![]() This unfortunately makes Beast of Maravilla Island an Island I don't ever plan on revisiting. Ultimate allow you more creativity than Beasts of Maravilla Island. Heck even other games that have non-essential photo-modes like Blue Fire, Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury and Super Smash Bros. If you're looking for a creative photographic experience I'd recommend titles like Umurangi Generation and (New) Pokémon Snap. I've been a huge proponent of photography video games, but with its surge over the recent years I've realized that I've also become more critical of games wanting to evoke that feeling of photography, but don't seem to fully understand how it can be both a tool for gameplay and creativity. The creatures and its world are without a doubt the highlight of the game, but even so interaction and creativity in your photography is limited from every angle. While performance on the console absolutely breaks the experience, what little is there to begin with feels lackluster and basic.

Players can reference their photobook and journal at any time to see how many creatures and special behaviors they still need to photograph.

As an action reporter, players need to investigate beyond the superficial facts of what is good and what is evil – which is dictated through government propaganda in the game.

Iridium metal7/12/2023 ![]() Iridium first found a use in the nibs of fountain pens, due to its extreme hardness. It is still produced today from platinum ore and as a by-product of nickel mining. Obtaining pure samples of iridium remained impossible, however, due to its high melting point, until 1842 when an American chemist called Hare used a hydrogen/oxygen flame to melt a small sample, allowing it to be separated from dross and other impurities. Collet-Descotiles upon whose research Tennant also acted. Much of the credit for the discovery should also go to Frenchmen L.N. In 1804, Tennant isolated iridium (and osmium) from the residues and, due to its colourful compounds, named it after the Latin for rainbow, "iridis". ![]() Having discovered platinum and palladium, William Hyde Wollaston handed over the remaining residues of ore to his commercial partner Smithson Tennant, a fellow Cambridge graduate with whom he had forged a partnership in 1800.

Iscribe tablet7/12/2023 In one instance, the inscribed tablet was shaped like a funerary headband, with holes to bind it around the forehead. These tiny gold sheets employ a formulaic consolation that appears regularly on funerary steles in the area: θάρσει, (here the name of the deceased is inserted), οὐδεὶς ἀθάνατος ("Take courage,, no one is immortal"). Totenpässe have also been found in tombs from Palestine dating from the 2nd century BC and later. More recently the association of the tablets with Orphism has been defended. Since the 1990s, the usefulness of the term "Orphic" has been questioned by scholars, as has the unity of religious belief underlying the gold tablets. ![]() The most widely available source that discusses the Orphic gold tablets is the classic (if superseded in some aspects) Orpheus and Greek Religion by W. After that you will rule amongst the other heroes. I am parched with thirst and perishing: give me quickly chill water flowing from the pool of Memory.' Assuredly the kings of the underworld take pity on you, and will themselves give you water from the spring divine then you, when you have drunk, traverse the holy path which other initiates and bacchants tread in glory. Say: 'I am the son of Earth and starry Heaven, but of Heaven is my birth: this you know yourselves. They will ask you for what reason you have come. They will ask you with keen mind what is your quest in the gloom of deadly Hades. Further on you will find chill water flowing from the pool of Memory: over this stand guardians. You will find on the right in Hades' halls a spring, and by it stands a ghostly cypress-tree, where the dead souls descending wash away their lives. Philologist Richard Janko proposed that Group B from Zuntz's collection derived from a single archetype, for which he offered a hypothetical Greek text and the following English translation while attempting, he emphasized, not to rely on preconceptions about underlying theology: Zuntz presented transcribed text coupled with a reconstruction, and interpreted their religious foundation as Pythagorean rather than Orphic. Günther Zuntz made the most complete survey of gold tablets discovered up to 1971 (at Thurii, Crete, and elsewhere), categorizing them into three groups that have become the typological standard. Mnemosyne (1881), a pre-Raphaelite interpretation of the goddess of memory by Dante Gabriel Rossetti The deceased is supposed to stand before Persephone, Queen of the Dead, and assert "I have been released by Bacchios himself." Interpretation Īlthough the meandering and fragile text poses difficulties, the inscriptions appear to speak of the unity of life and death and of rebirth, possibly in divine form. Also placed in the tomb was a terracotta figurine of a maenad, one of the ecstatic women in the retinue of Dionysus. They had been arranged symmetrically on the woman's chest, with her lips sealed by a gold danake, or " Charon's obol", the coin that pays the ferryman of the dead for passage this particular coin depicted the head of a Gorgon. The leaves are paper-thin and small, one measuring 40 by 31 mm (1.6 by 1.2 in) and the other 35 by 30 mm (1.4 by 1.2 in). The Greek lettering is not inscribed in regular lines as it is on the rectangular tablets, but rambles to fit the shape. ![]() Although the term " leaf" to describe metal foil is a modern metaphorical usage, these lamellae were in this case cut in the shape of cordate leaves probably meant to represent ivy most Totenpässe of this type are rectangular. The burial site of a woman also in Thessaly and dating to the late 4th century BC yielded a pair of Totenpässe in the form of lamellae ( Latin, "thin metal sheets", singular lamella). ![]() The Getty Museum owns an outstanding example of a 4th-century BC Orphic prayer sheet from Thessaly, a gold-leaf rectangle measuring about 26 by 38 mm (1.0 by 1.5 in). The inscription instructs the initiate on how to navigate the afterlife, including directions for avoiding hazards in the landscape of the dead and formulaic responses to the underworld judges. Totenpässe are placed on or near the body as a phylactery, or rolled and inserted into a capsule often worn around the neck as an amulet. The so-called Orphic gold tablets are perhaps the best-known example. ![]() The term may be understood in English as a " passport for the dead". Totenpass (plural Totenpässe) is a German term sometimes used for inscribed tablets or metal leaves found in burials primarily of those presumed to be initiates into Orphic, Dionysiac, and some ancient Egyptian and Semitic religions. 4th century BC gold orphic tablet from the Getty Museum, Los Angeles
