Fire Department is Dedicated to Saving Lives
Fire is one of the most destructive elements that threatens a person. No one is immune from the occurrence of a fire, and with medium and high fire intensity, it is impossible to extinguish it on its own. Therefore, people whose daily labor duty is to enter into a fight with the dangerous elements and tame it, often risking not only their own health, but also their lives are real professionals of their own business.

Effect of curvature on volumes
The application of the prismoidal and end-area formulae has assumed, up to this point, that the crosssections are parallel. When the excavation is curved , the sections are radial and a curvature correction must be applied to the formulae.
Pappus's theorem states that the correct volume is where the distance between the cross-sections is taken along the path of the centre of mass.
Consider the volume between the first two sections of area A1 and A2
Distance between sections measured along centre-line = XY = D
Angle δ subtended at the centre = D/R radians
Now, length along path of centre of mass = XY = δ ×mean radius to path of centre of mass where mean radius.
Curved excavation
In other words, one corrects for curvature by multiplying the area A1 by (1−d1/R), and area A2 by (1−d2/R), the corrected areas then being used in either the end-area or prismoidal formulae, in the normal way, with D being the distance measured along the centre-line.
If the centre of mass lies beyond the centre-line, as in section A3, then the correction is (1 d3/R). This correction for curvature is, again, never applied to earthworks in practice. Indeed, it can be shown that the effect is very largely cancelled out on long earthwork projects. However, it may be significant on small projects or single curved excavations.

Auroa Innovation Inc., the Pittsburgh-based developer of autonomous vehicle technologies, is adjusting its timeline for when it expects to deliver a fully autonomous and commercial trucking platform.
According to Aurora (NASDAQ: AUR) CEO and Co-Founder Chris Urmson, the company now expects to have a commercial trucking platform available in the first half of 2024, a pushback from its original intent to offer the platform before the end of 2023. Urmson made the announcement during the company's Q2 earnings call on Wednesday.
Urmson cited current supply chain-related constraints and other challenges facing the trucking industry more broadly as some of the reasons for the delay.
"While this program timing is later than we had originally expected, we see the recent awarding of key supplier contracts as a major point of schedule risk reduction in these programs," Urmson said during the earnings call. Aurora picked up a commercial pilot partnership recently with trucking firm Schneider National Inc. to further test out and validate autonomous freight hauling capabilities, one of four major collaborations that Aurora has made with trucking companies in the past year.
But in order for its autonomous driving technology of hardware and software components — which the company calls the Aurora Driver — to work best, Aurora needs to work directly with truck manufacturers to create vehicles that have new or enhanced control interfaces as well as new or enhanced braking, steering and power systems so that the vehicle can have the reliability Aurora claims is needed for safe driverless operations. Aurora is working with Paccar Inc. and Volvo Trucks to do exactly that, which Urmson said Aurora has made "significant progress" with in recent months.
"With the delivery of the truck platforms, we expect to be able to complete upfit, bring up, and final validation of the integration of the Aurora Driver with the truck platform in preparation for release of a scalable trucking product by the end of 2024," Urmson said. "While progress has been strong, these programs are not immune to recent industry challenges."
And even though the physical deployment of the company's autonomous platform is delayed, Urmson took time to note the series of technological advancements the company has achieved in recent months.
During the second quarter, Urmson said that Aurora's trucks have delivered more than 335 loads across 80,000 cumulative miles with an on-time rate of 100% and no cancellations. Aurora is performing these trips, with at least one human safety operator on board, throughout Texas for FedEx Corp. The company is now currently autonomously hauling FedEx loads between Dallas and Houston daily and between Fort Worth and El Paso on a weekly basis.
In the past quarter, Aurora has also been able to achieve the milestone of having its tech-equipped vehicles pull over to the side of the road automatically following the detection of a system error. The Aurora Driver can also now automatically abort lane changes and utilize engine braking for downhill sections of a route.
As for financials, Aurora recognized approximately $21 million in collaboration revenue during Q2 for development work relating to its agreement with Toyota Motor Corp. to equip eight Toyota Sienna vehicles with Aurora's tech, part of a $145 million cumulative to-date agreement the two companies have.
Operating expenses totaled $1.2 billion during the quarter, which included a $1 billion noncash reduction in the carrying value of the company's goodwill due to its market capitalization falling below the carrying value of the company's assets. Barring that and the $46 million in stock-based compensation the company issued over the past quarter, Aurora posted operating expenses of $171 million during its second quarter.
In Q2, the company's balance sheet had $1.4 billion in cash and short-term investments. Aurora still expects these funds to last it until its launches its commercial AV platform. The company also posted basic and diluted net losses per share of $1.02.
Aurora ended intraday trading up 2.2% with a share of its common stock trading at $2.79 per share as of market close on Wednesday.
Urmson founded Aurora in 2016 alongside fellow co-founders Sterling Anderson, its chief product officer, and Drew Bagnell, its chief scientist. All three had previous autonomous vehicle experience at different companies before joining together to launch Aurora. It employs 1,600 workers, the majority of whom reside and work in Pittsburgh.

Most hens lay between 200-250 eggs annually, with the best layers averaging 250-280 eggs per year. Optimal laying breeds include Plymouth Barred Rock and Rhode Island Red, which lay up to 300 eggs annually. All hens are the most productive during the first three years of their life.
Laying the First Egg
Typically, hens lay their first egg between 18-30 weeks old. The first few eggs are often smaller, have a thin, papery shell, and no yolk. As the hen matures, the egg size will even out.
Hens temporarily stop laying around eighteen months for their first molting but resume laying shortly after that.
Each year, egg production will go down. While production will decline steadily (a ten-year-old hen will only lay 20% the number of eggs she laid in her first year of life), the average life expectancy of a chicken is 8-10 years.
What Happens When Hens Lay Eggs?
Egg laying is not a quiet affair! Hens have an initial nesting call when they first start laying, which is when the flock rooster starts squawking. Typically, once one hen begins laying, others join her. After laying, a hen makes her laying cackle, consisting of short, sharp chatter, signaling the egg is ready for picking.
What Happens if an Egg isn't Picked?
If an egg isn't picked, it could get broken, and chickens will eat the egg. Alternatively, a hen may begin brooding and become protective of the egg. Once a chicken starts brooding, you won't be able to pick the egg, and the hen will stop laying while she hatches her nest.
We harvest eggs at least twice daily to ensure hens don't begin brooding. This also ensures that eggs are refrigerated within a few hours of laying.
Do Eggs Need to be Refrigerated Immediately?
Farm fresh eggs don't need to be refrigerated because they are covered in bloom to stay clean. Bloom seals pores in the egg to reduce moisture loss and minimize infection risk. However, eggs are no longer safe at room temperature once washed, which is why commercial eggs must always be refrigerated.
Our Mountain High Farm eggs are refrigerated after picking to minimize risk and extend the freshness of the eggs. Once chilled, eggs must stay refrigerated, or they could sweat when returned to room temperature, exposing the egg to potential bacteria.
Enjoy Farm Fresh Eggs From Local Hens
Our flock of hens in Walsenburg, Colorado produces hundreds of eggs each month. Eggs are available by the dozen, with home delivery available in Walsenburg and La Veta.

We don't know about you, but we're ushering in the New Year with a BANG. That's the sound our metaphorical sledgehammer of rage made while we beat the snot out of our internal server this week, after it refused to come into 2012 in an operational status. Fortunately, our crack IT squad has patched up a solution and our office operations are back up. Our phones are still being rather… difficult, though, but we hope to get those co-operating shortly. We apologize for the hassle, and we'll post an update when they're back online.
Last week we mentioned a certain CNC woodburning device made from the LMR-SH kit. It looks like it's entered in a contest over at Buildlounge, and we encourage everyone to go and cast a vote for it. The polls will close pretty soon, so go and show some support for
lighting things on fire making cool solar-based contraptions.
In other news, some of our pals from the local Protospace have recently worked on a neat-o project that used an Ardweeny for brains. They designed a really cool ornament for the top of a Christmas tree in Calgary's East Village, based around the idea of a Tesseract/Hypercube built with Acrylic rods and lit by LEDs. The result is pretty stunning. Go check out this post for some more pictures and some details on the build. Unfortunately, all good things come to an end, and the tree and decorations will be taken down this week. Still, we want to congratulate the team behind this project on a job very well done.
And now, as is the tradition with these news posts…
New Products!
|Wireless Proto Shield – $21.85 USD / $22.95
This proto shield comes with a socket for wireless modules, such as the Digi XBee, and a built in regulator and a big ol' prototyping area.
|Wireless SD Shield – $29.15 USD / $30.60 CAD
This Arduino shield rocks a socket for wireless modules, such as Digi Xbee, so that you can float your bits and bytes of data through air with the greatest of ease.
|Kingston 2GB Micro SD TF Memory Card (with SD Adapter) – $9.50
What good is an SD shield without an SD? A 2GB microSD Card is surprisingly hard to find these days as SDHC has taken over, but here's a card that is compatible with all our microSD products. It also comes with an SD adapter for easy use in other applications.
|ProtoSnap – LilyPad E-Sewing Kit – $19.95
The ProtoSnap series is a new way to prototype your projects without a breadboard. This box of goodies comes with a bobbin of conductive thread, needles, a battery and a sewable slide switch, battery holder, push button, and LEDs to jump start you into E-textile circuits!
|12 VDC 2A Switching Power Supply AC Adapter – $13.50
This is a VERY common regulated 12 VDC 2000mA output power supply used for many common gadgets.
|Graphic LCD Serial Backpack – $19.95
This is the serial backpack (not to be confused with a serial handbag) for graphic LCDs, providing a simple serial interface to a full range of controls.
|Graphic LCD 160×128 Huge – $49.95
Compact and cost effective display module, with an embedded GOLDELOX-GFX2 graphics processor that delivers 'stand-alone' functionality to any project. Powerful graphics, text, image, animation and countless more features are built inside the GOLDELOX-GFX2 chip.
And that pretty much covers what's been going on this week. We're desperately hoping that the technical problems we've been facing so far isn't an indication for how the rest of the year will unfold, because that would really suck. Now if you'll excuse us, we need to get back to beat-the-server-with-a-metaphorical-sledgehammer duty.
But before we disappear, we just wanted to take this one quick opportunity to express our gratitude to our purchaser, Chuck, who will be starting at a new job this week. And even though we also want to beat that company with a metaphorical sledgehammer for stealin' him away, we want to say that it's been a pleasure and that we wish him all the best.

Ravens can bury reeling Steelers with a win in Pittsburgh
BALTIMORE (8-3) at PITTSBURGH (5-5-1)
Sunday, 4:25 p.m. EST, CBS
BETTING LINE: Ravens by 4, according to FanDuel Sportsbook.
AGAINST THE SPREAD: Baltimore 4-7; Pittsburgh 4-7.
SERIES RECORD: Steelers lead 30-24.
LAST MEETING: Steelers beat Ravens 19-14 on Dec. 2, 2020, in Pittsburgh.
LAST WEEK: Ravens beat Browns 16-10; Steelers lost to Bengals 41-10.
TURNOVER DIFFERENTIAL: Ravens minus-7; Steelers minus-4.
RAVENS PLAYER TO WATCH: T Alejandro Villanueva is in his first season with the Ravens after playing for Pittsburgh from 2014-20. He's had his struggles with Baltimore, and protecting the passer has been an issue for the Ravens in general.
STEELERS PLAYER TO WATCH: RB Najee Harris has become an afterthought over the last two weeks (20 carries, 61 yards) after being a driving force behind a five-game unbeaten streak that thrust Pittsburgh back into contention (121 carries, 461 yards).
KEY MATCHUP: Pittsburgh's porous defensive line and the NFL's 28th-ranked run defense against Baltimore QB Lamar Jackson. The Steelers have allowed a staggering 180.5 yards per game on the ground over the last four weeks.
KEY INJURIES: Raven: DT Calais Campbell (concussion) missed last weekend's game against Cleveland and was limited at practice this week. … LB Patrick Queen (ribs) and CB Jimmy Smith (neck) were also limited. … TE Nick Boyle (knee), C Bradley Bozeman (shin laceration), WR Devin Duvernay (thigh), OL Patrick Mekari (ankle) and fullback Patrick Ricard (foot/thigh) missed practice time. … The Ravens have had significant injury problems since before the season started, but WRs Marquise Brown and Sammy Watkins appear healthy now, so Jackson should have his top targets available. ... Steelers CB Joe Haden will miss his third straight game due to a sprained foot. ... LB T.J. Watt went into the COVID-19 protocol on Monday but was activated on Saturday and is expected to play. ... LB Rob Spillane (knee) is out, further depleting an already thin linebacking corps. ... TE Pat Freiermuth went into the concussion protocol last Sunday but is likely to play after practicing during the week.
SERIES NOTES: The longtime AFC North rivals have fought to a draw over the last nine seasons, splitting their last 18 regular-season meetings. ... The Steelers swept the series in 2020, while the Ravens took both games in 2019. ... This is only Baltimore QB Jackson's third start against Pittsburgh. He engineered an overtime win at Heinz Field in 2019 and committed four turnovers (two fumbles, two interceptions) in a home loss in November 2020. ... Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger is 15-10 against Baltimore, though his QB rating when facing the Ravens (85.3) is considerably lower than his career average (93.8).
STATS AND STUFF: This is the 30th all-time coaching matchup between Baltimore's John Harbaugh and Pittsburgh's Mike Tomlin, the third-most frequent coaching showdown in NFL history. They have a ways to go to catch the leaders. Hall of Famers Curly Lambeau and George Halas met 49 times while coaching Green Bay and Chicago. ... The Ravens have won 12 of their past 13 December games. The one loss was last year's game at Pittsburgh when Baltimore was dealing with a COVID-19 outbreak and Jackson didn't play. … The Ravens are 6-1 in games decided by eight points or fewer this season. … Mark Andrews became the fifth TE in NFL history to eclipse 200 receptions, 2,800 yards receiving and 25 receiving TDs in the first four seasons of his career. The others were Antonio Gates, Jimmy Graham, Rob Gronkowski and Kellen Winslow. … Jackson threw a career-high four interceptions last weekend. He's only had one other game with three — a win at Pittsburgh in 2019. ... The Steelers are riding a three-game winless streak (0-2-1) and likely would see any shot at winning the AFC North vanish with a loss. ... Roethlisberger will move into a tie with former Chargers and Colts QB Phil Rivers for seventh in most games played by a quarterback (244). Roethlisberger moved past Rivers last week for fifth in pass completions (5,298). ... The last time Pittsburgh finished outside the top 20 in yards allowed was 1991. The Steelers are in danger of ending that streak this season barring a stunning turnaround.
FANTASY TIP: Steelers WR Diontae Johnson has been the one constant in Pittsburgh's up-and-down passing offense. He's on pace to shatter his career highs in both receptions and yards and is facing the NFL's worst pass defense.

This paper seeks to explore the attraction and the beauty of the contemporary athletic body. It will be suggested that a body shaped through muscular bulk and definition has come to be seen as aesthetically normative. This body differs from the body of athletes from the early and mid-twentieth century. It will be argued that the contemporary body is not merely the result of advances in sports science, but rather that it is expressive of certain meanings and values. The visual similarity of the contemporary athletic body and that of the comic book superhero suggests that both bodies carry a similar potential for narrative story-telling, and that their attraction is bound up with this narrative potential. The superhero and athlete live meaningful lives, pursuing clear and morally unambiguous goals. The aesthetic attraction of the body lies in its capacity to facilitate the articulation of a story of a meaningful life, and to do so in the face of the growing anomie and thus meaninglessness of life as experienced in contemporary society. Athleticism offers an illusion of meaning, serving to reproduce dominant justificatory narratives and social stereotypes. Yet, as an illusion of meaning, it may be challenged and negotiated, not least with respect to its bias towards a certain form of the male body. The female athletic body disrupts the illusion, opening up new existential possibilities, new ways of living and being, and thus new, and potentially disruptive, narratives.

from nbc.com.au :
The Hawks have made another key signing ahead of the 2020/21 Hungry Jack's NBL season, with emerging star Dan Grida committing to the club for a further two years.
Grida hasn't missed a game for The Hawks since joining the team in 2018 and is set to play a key role in the new era of the club.
Discovered at the NBL Next Gen Camp, Grida was recruited by The Hawks and received a call-up for the Boomers last year. He is currently recovering from an ACL injury he suffered at the end of last season.
The 22-year-old forward is poised to make a big impact for The Hawks in the coming seasons as they build a roster to achieve sustained success.
Hawks Head Coach Brian Goorjian said: "We are delighted to have Dan return to The Hawks for the next two seasons. He is a tremendous young talent and an even better person, making him someone that fits into the culture we are building.
"With Dan, Emmett Naar and Deng Deng committed for next season, we are well on our way to constructing a team that The Hawks fans can be proud of on and off the court."
Grida said: "I'm super keen to be under 'Goorj' and that was a massive reason for me coming back to The Hawks.
"Everything I have seen about Goorj is he makes everyone he coaches better and that's really where I'm at right now. I want to become the best player I can be, and I think he is the best guy for me to go to.
"I think I'm going to be back in January, so with the season being pushed back it actually works better for me. It (the recovery from his ACL injury) has gone really well with no hiccups yet."

Repost: Delia by Karen Harte
I was thinking about my favourite female creators (as it's International Women's Day) and immediately thought of Doctor Who's early producer, Verity Lambert, but was then reminded that she was not the only female creator who put an early stamp on the show and I thought of Karen Harte's book about Delia Derbyshire so I decided to give this a re-post.
A month or so ago, as part of my trying to overcome my shyness and general awkwardness around people, I volunteered to do a review for the Comics Lab. They duly called my bluff and so I had to pick a book to review. I ended up picking Delia by Karen Harte for a number of reasons. Mainly, it seemed, to me, to fit in with the overall philosophy of the Comics Lab itself. That being that you can make comics about anything and that that they don't all have to fit into the same box. This going to be a different kind of review as I am going to go into the personal reasons why I enjoyed the book.
Back in 2013, as part of the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who, the BBC produced a documentary, An Adventure in Space and Time, about the beginnings of the show. Not only did I gain a love of the old Doctor Who from it, I discovered that there was a pioneering woman behind the scenes. Producer Verity Lambert, a lady I have come to greatly respect for her contribution to the show and television in general, was an integral part of its initial success.
This is cleverly mixed in with Delia's own words to capture the ideas behind her life's work. It is a beautiful way to highlight the work of such a pioneer. As a Doctor Who fan, I really welcomed someone shining a light on Delia as well as clueing me into her part in the history of the show. I'd like to see more of a spotlight on her. If you can get your hands on a copy of this book, I'd highly recommend it. I'll leave you with the piece that Delia Derbyshire is most famous for. Untouched by modern hands which is the way she preferred it.

Facebook advertising has come a long way from a barebones advertising platform to one that employs sophisticated features, that even Google AdWords is now catching up with. As a popular channel, most advertisers in Facebook are still confused with ROI and ROAS, how to calculate, their differences, and optimization based on ROI.
Facebook Revenue On Ad Spend
In a nutshell, Facebook's Revenue on ad spend (ROAS) is a metric that compares the amount of revenue generated versus spend on advertising. Excluding other expenses on activities such as operations, training, etc. it is used to evaluate the performance of a campaign. For a profitable ROAS, it should be above 100% to cover the expense on advertising.
Return On Investment
On the other hand, Return on investment takes into consideration not only the advertising spend but also labor, time, energy and other intangible factors that contributed to revenue. "Return" on this sense sometimes include other benefits more than revenue. As it has a broader scope, it does not only measure the effectiveness of a campaign, but also the business team.
Calculating Facebook ROAS and Facebook ROI
ROAS is calculated as:
ROAS Formula = Revenue/Cost
ROAS Percentage = (Revenue – Cost) x (100/Cost)
ROI is calculated as:
ROI Formula = (Revenue – Costs) / Costs
ROI Percentage = (Revenue – Costs) x (100/Costs)
When to use one over another?
ROAS is a simple metric, as one can easily determine if a campaign is underperforming when it is below 100%. When it is, one can take an action through decreasing ad spend or implement a better strategy.
However, a higher ROAS in the short term also bring a lower ROI. Since the definition of investment in ROI includes researching on personas or target segments, a high ROAS campaign may provide a lower return when the marketing activities are not targeted to the right persona.
In essence the use of ROAS and ROI is for strategic use. Is your business after short term gains? Or is it geared towards long term growth? Learning the difference between these metrics could spell the success of your brand.

I now know several people who have been made redundant, and have seen the boarding up of large sections of the local town centre. Unemployment is rising, Arthur Scargill was on the radio last week, the shoulder pad is back, and so are Spandau Ballet. Besides the return of the 1980s, the recession is also adversely affecting the sex lives of some men:
As men, fearful for their jobs and marriages, seek to cut back on their assets and expenditures, mistresses are facing a cull. A recent survey reports that nearly half of analysts, stockbrokers and hedge-fund managers are preparing to let the other woman go. There's no doubt about it: these are bad times for the good time girls.
"A few months ago I promised my mistress a breast enhancement and liposuction as a gift," says one City worker. "Now I can only afford one or the other."

Today's most popular video games don't lack for comprehensive in-game instructions, waypoint-ridden maps, and streamlined actions, all of which can make players feel at ease and in control. Ignoring such conventions, Shenmue 3 often avoids explicit detail about its functions—one amusing line of combat tutorial text simply reads, "Just hit the [face] buttons"—and encourages the player to talk to individuals to get directions. This stripped-down approach recalls, to some extent, the way video games used to be made in the late 1990s and early 2000s, the time period when the first two Shenmue entries graced the Sega Dreamcast. But it's also representative of the artistic conviction of series creator Yu Suzuki, who uses deliberate pacing, down-to-earth character interactions, and mundane activities to fulfill a vision of steadfast humanity within the framework of a martial arts revenge tale.
Shenmue 3, which went through well more than a decade of planning and development, picks up where Shenmue 2 left off, with Ryo Hazuki, a young Japanese man hunting his father's killer, joining forces with a Chinese woman named Shenhua Ling, whose own father is missing. In a departure from its predecessors, a large part of the game takes place in a rural area, specifically a Chinese village called Bailu. It's there that Ryo and Shenhua learn how their fates are intertwined as they track down criminals responsible for attacks on the village.
It's a straightforward setup, but it's one that's enriched by Suzuki's unhurried style. As Ryo, the player very gradually visits every part of Bailu. A new section can only be accessed when the plot calls for it. In other games, this type of restraint on freedom of movement can be frustrating, but Suzuki's laser-like focus on characterization and theme make the slow journey beautiful to undertake. Every aspect of the village is distinguished, from the settlement near a grove of sunflowers to the marketplace, and full of the most compellingly human-like NPCs since The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. The villagers vary significantly by age, appearance, and personality, and the most notable include Mao Yuefang, a middle-aged woman who can be generally helpful but makes inappropriate suggestions about and to Ryo and Shenhua; Jiang Ming, an old man who sits on a bench and comically misinterprets what Ryo says; and Shen Wei, a driven young woman who pours out thanks to anyone who will spar with her.
Like prior entries in the series, as well as the open-world games they've inspired, Shenmue 3 utilizes a day-night cycle. But whereas some developers seem to include this feature in their games just to fit under a particular umbrella of realism, Suzuki also sees the passage of time as the key ingredient for deeper relationships. Every night before Ryo sleeps, the player may initiate revealing conversations with Shenhua. The two can trade histories, remarking about the disciplinary styles of their fathers, their different childhood games, and the absence of their mothers. A flute melody, both wistful and utterly sincere, accompanies these talks, reflecting the scenes' (and Suzuki's) emotional maturity and unassuming B-movie sensibility.
Thematically, Shenmue 3 is fixated on the significance of patience and dignity, both in its mechanics and its story. Fighting as Ryo isn't easy and can be quite awkward, so the game nudges the player to keep going to the dojo to build strength and technique through stances, timed attacks, and sparring. There's a marked sense that Ryo feels shame when he loses a battle, as the people around him, including his opponents, will bluntly suggest he needs more discipline. In a rejection of popular video-game norms, Shenmue 3 doesn't allow Ryo to barge into homes with closed front doors. It's telling that Ryo refuses to even walk into Shenhua's open room, and the game's emphasis on respect is so great that when Ryo, in a moment of frustration, uses the mild profanity "hell," you may find the moment genuinely surprising.
Just as Ryo is rewarded in the story for applying himself, your commitment to Shenmue 3's mechanics over a period of time can bring greater appreciation for their design, as well as the philosophical relevance of those mechanics to the game's narrative. In an understated masterstroke that prevents you from rushing through the game, Suzuki combines the protagonist's health and stamina into one bar that can be refilled if Ryo eats. But food requires money, which means Ryo has to take work to get cash. One might sneer at the idea of having to split wood to subsist, but Suzuki turns the activity into its own spectacle of timing and judgment, with an upward-facing camera on the ground to emphasize Ryo's crushing swings of the axe. An ode to the idea of careful diligence, this mini-game demands one to closely observe Ryo's eyes so that the wood can be perfectly halved.
Anything Ryo does in Shenmue 3 entails hardship of a sort. In most 3D games of this vein, items can be grabbed with a quick touch of a button. In Shenmue 3, picking a plant requires a conscious change to first-person perspective before Ryo can be commanded to gather the resource. Clunky, perhaps, but in Suzuki's hands, this layered action more effectively simulates the minor toil of having to bend down in real life in order to pick something up, further amplifying our perception of Ryo as a human being. Like the monks who urge Ryo to take his time developing his talents as a martial artist, Shenmue 3 asks a modern audience accustomed to instant gratification to contemplate the virtues of humbleness and persistence, regardless of whether Ryo's task at hand is crucial or incidental to his ultimate quest for justice.
The game was reviewed using a review code provided by Tinsley PR.

When you land your first job after graduating from college, lots of exciting new things happen. You might move out of your parents' house and into your first apartment. Maybe you buy a new car to drive to your new job, or maybe you relocate to a new city. But the most exciting thing? Your new paycheck.
It's your first taste of true financial freedom, and it's tempting to blow it all on apartment decor, nights out with friends and professional clothes. As enticing as that is, though, as a recent graduate, you should be focusing on how to save money, not how to spend it.
We know that we sound like a total drag right now (what are we, your mother?). And we are not saying that you shouldn't treat yourself to a couple of nice things as a reward for getting through four years of ramen-noodle-eating and shopping at Forever 21 as a broke college student. You should! But before your new adult lifestyle gets out of hand, put a plan in place to save money.
Why Should I Save Money?
There are lots of reasons to save your hard-earned dough, and many of them will be personal. Perhaps ever since you moved into an apartment where you can hear your neighbors doing the deed, your dream is home ownership. Maybe you want to roll up in a car that doesn't smell like Parmesan cheese. Maybe those student loans are looming and you want them out of your hair.
Whatever your personal motivation is, is A-OK! Don't feel like you need to come up with a reason to save that doesn't resonate with you. But you should find a why that will motivate you when the urge to spend comes to play. If you're having trouble coming up with one, we made a list for you to consider.
10 Reasons to Save Money
- You're saving for a down payment on a house.
- You want to move to a more expensive state.
- Getting out of debt (student loans, credit cards, etc.) is a priority.
- It would feel amazing to stop stressing about money.
- And to stop relying on your parents for things.
- You are dying to buy a car.
- You don't feel comfortable funding an emergency if it comes up, and that's anxiety-inducing.
- It would be nice to stop living paycheck to paycheck.
- Imagine being able to retire early!
- For our future-oriented friends, you want to be able to pay for your kid's college tuition.
How to Save Money
We've covered why you should save money, so now let's get to how you can actually do that. And contrary to popular opinion, cutting out avocados from your grocery trip and skipping your daily Starbucks run aren't the only ways to save a buck.
Even if you're not exactly rolling in it (who is as a new grad?), you should get into the habit of saving something every month. Even if it's only $100. But try to save as much as you possibly can each month.
We rounded up a list of money-saving tips for recent grads with no experience in the arena. Please keep in mind that we are not financial experts, and all of our advice is simply anecdotal. It works for us, and we hope it works for you, too.
5 Easy Ways to Save Money as a New Grad
1. Create a vision board.
When it comes to saving money, we're all about finding your why here at Adultescence. After all, if you feel like you have nothing specific to save for, you're going to feel way less motivated to do it at all.
One easy way to figure out what your financial goals are and work towards them is to create a vision board to hang on your wall. We recommend displaying it somewhere that you look at every day so that your money saving goals will always stay top-of-mind. You can also create a collage on sites like Canva and set it as your phone background, and use Pinterest to find inspiring images.
Vision boarding is a form of manifestation. If you put pictures of your dream house on your board, for example, you'll imagine living in that house every time you look at it. According to Dr. Gail Matthews, you are 42% more likely to achieve your goals by writing them down, which is another way to increase the efficacy of your vision board. Kind of like how you're much more likely to remember to get eggs at the grocery store if you write it on the list. Which reminds us…
2. Make a meal plan (and stick to it).
Instead of going to the grocery store, wandering around aimlessly, and walking out with a cart full of stuff you'll end up throwing out next week, make a meal plan. Think about what you want to eat that week, and make a list of the ingredients you'll need. Check your pantry and fridge to see if you already have some of it.
By taking these simple steps before you head to the grocery store, you'll decrease the chances of you buying things you already have or won't use. According to Feeding America, nearly $140 billion in food is thrown out each year. Think about how much money you could save by only buying what you'll use! Bonus: you'll attract fewer rodents to your apartment, too.
3. Create a basic budget.
We saved this one for third so we didn't scare you off. But before you scroll away, hear us out! We know the sound of creating a budget is enough to make your skin crawl, but it's not as soul-sucking as it sounds.
First, change your mindset around budgeting. We were trained to think that having a budget meant we couldn't spend our money on anything fun. In actuality, the opposite is true! A budget is a useful tool so you can keep track of your money, and make sure you're only spending it on what you truly value.
Here's an example: at Adultescence, we were curious about how much we were spending on Ubers in 2019. After looking at our spending habits over the course of two months, we were horrified to discover that over $200 per month was going to Uber. And to be frank, Uber rides weren't something we really valued. No shade to Uber.
But, if each Uber ride cost an average of $20, then for $200 we took 10 Uber rides. By switching to public transportation, at an average of $2 per ride, our cost plummets to $20 for 10 rides. That's a savings of $180 per month! For us, planning ahead and budgeting a little extra time to get to our destination is worth the immense savings of skipping the Ubers. But, without creating a budget and taking a look at where our money was going each month, we never would have had that insight.
Budgeting isn't a torture device to deplete your life of all things fun. Instead, it's a useful tool to track where your dollars are going and ensure you're spending money in a way that makes sense for you.
4. Find free or low cost hobbies.
One way that a lot of recent graduates spend their cash is on expensive nights out with friends and other social activities. It's all too easy to blow $100 in one night at a trendy bar. If it happens every weekend, that's $400 a month on nights you might not even remember the next day.
Instead of defaulting to hanging with friends at restaurants and bars, find other free or low-cost hobbies and activities to do with your pals. You could go for a walk around the neighborhood, window shop (and leave your card at home to resist temptation), take a hike or cook dinner at home. Invite your friends over, split a cheap bottle of wine, and make your vision boards!
You could even take up a side hustle, like bar-tending, starting your own online business, or getting your real estate license. You'll be so busy making money, you won't have time to spend it.
5. Find things secondhand.
If you do find yourself needing something expensive, look for it secondhand first. There are so many ways to do this, like using Facebook Marketplace or hitting up your local thrift shop.
Not only will you find secondhand shopping easier on your budget, but you'll also be helping the environment. By shopping at thrift stores, you'll find unique pieces that are well-made, rather than defaulting to buying cheaply made furniture from Ikea or Wayfair. That whimsical, vintage vibe is way in right now, too, so consider yourself a trend-setter.
Final Tips on How to Save Money
We know that saving money isn't the most fun or glamorous topic. But, it's super important to start doing it while you're young. Keep in mind that saving money is a lot easier when you surround yourself with like-minded people. If you have friends that pressure you to spend money on things you don't care about, you might want to rethink those relationships.
There are tons of resources out there if you're interested in learning more about saving money. By investing time and energy to learn about good money habits, you'll set yourself up for success. Check out our additional resources for more info. But get the books from the library to save money, k?

from darkness, beauty arises
"Art is restoration. The idea is to repair the damages that are inflicted in life - to make something that is fragmented, which is what fear and anxiety do to a person - into something whole."
-- Louise Bourgeois by way of Hannah Gadsby
Over and over, I learn that I create things because I know who I am when I do.
At first, I thought that learning watercolor and painting flowers and landscapes was only about learning something new and making something that centers beauty. And that is inherently a part of this work.
But this process has also been about taking this to the things that are impacting most currently. I'm in trauma recovery. So much about that experience is not just about getting to the next moment, but also about finding myself in those moments. I am so much more than someone who experienced childhood sexual and organized abuse. I am more than someone recovering from those injuries.
Healing is not about regaining something. It is about creating something new. I have to constantly keep trying new things, allowing myself to unlearn old ideas and have new experiences in order to do that healing. The creative process feels much the same. I learn and grow in order to create new things in my studio.
The work here is where art and transformation meet.
This work grows out of the collage work and the heart protectors in "sometimes all i can remember is sky. . . "

Digital-Only Banks: Threat or Motivator?
The emergence of digital-only banks has jolted incumbents into varying degrees of panic. On paper, their business model seems enviable. Operating costs are low, unburdened by old legacy IT systems and costly branch networks. Consequently, superior operating efficiency enables competitive pricing. In addition, newer technology infrastructure allows for a more sophisticated and capable digital banking experience for customers. Faced with this new challenge, it is important for incumbent banks not to forget what their customers actually want.
While digital-only banks do possess significant competitive advantages, recent launches have demonstrated they also face difficult challenges that technology or price can't solve. The benefits of digital banking to the customer and provider make the broad direction of strategy fairly simple: digitize.
The key question for banks is, to what extent? Do digital-only banks pose such a threat to valuable customer bases that wholehearted emulation is required? Or would digitizing selected parts of bank propositions be sufficient to mitigate the threat?
The report Digital-Only Banks: Threat or Motivator?, aims to assess the risk posed by digital-only banks, identify vulnerable customer segments, and highlight actions that incumbents could make to improve their retention prospects.
