![]() This may include United Kingdom.ĭestructive Power Shots are ones that deal heavy damage to the defender, such as Greece with the javelins and Asura with the fists, but most of all United Kingdom. An exception to this rule however is Finland's air shot, which you can use from any distance. They have to be used a certain distance away from the goal, but also not too close to the goal so that they won't go into the ground. However, since these start above the goal and slant down they can't be used from anywhere on the field like Straight line shots. These Power Shots are usually pretty good because they are harder to counter and deflect. Examples are Brazil, Chile, Bolivia, Canada and Finland. These are the shots that start above the character and shoot downward. Most of them cannot be deflected meaning that if they don't counter it then it is almost for sure a goal. The minus to these is that they are usually easy to be countered since they are right on the ground where the defender's foot is. These are shots that go on the ground such as Italy's and Nigeria's. ![]() The plus to these is that most of them start in front of you, meaning that if you get close enough to the goal, the ball will start in the goal. ![]() They are the ones, obviously, that travel in a straight line like Cameroon or Valentine. Straight line Power Shots are usually the worst as they are extremely easy to block and counter. A few shots might not fall into any category as they are so unique (like France). Some Power Shots may fall into multiple categories. There are multiple types of Power Shots in Head Soccer, each with their own pluses and minuses. If you have a good power shot then use it against them because they normally can't block it. The person that has the last Power Shot usually scores. If your opponent has a good shot like Ireland's, don't immediately use Egypt's Shot, but wait to use it to block the power shot of Ireland, therefore blocking your opponents and also having the opportunity to score. Power rallies are when both players have a series where each player has a Power Shot before there is a goal. They should be saved to have the final shot in power rallies. Power shots shouldn't always be used as soon as you get them. Power shots are extremely useful, even if the Power Shot itself isn't that good because it can be used to instantly block an opponent's Power Shot. 3 Types of shots by the position they are used from.

Whether it is a beautiful, tropical aquarium bursting with colour and vibrancy that you’re after, or an intriguing and sleek work of art filled with unusual, unique, fascinating creatures and a wide variety of gorgeous freshwater fauna, no matter what you choose, you will always have an exceptional show piece everyone will love.īoth saltwater and freshwater aquaria created by Aquarium Architecture are a fabulous conversation piece and make an engaging focal point in any room. If you would prefer to go with acrylic over glass, you’ll have greater flexibility in the choice of shapes for your aquarium and acrylic will generally be more expensive. Of course the sky’s the limit, so you can go as big as you want! Aquarium Architecture’s saltwater aquarium has a minimum size of 300 litres, whereas the freshwater aquaria can be a minimum of 50 litres. Size and materials obviously make a difference when it comes to price, maintenance and suitability as well. They generally require additional equipment, additional work during water changes and also require special lighting. ![]() And they are a bit more precarious to maintain than their freshwater counterparts. Saltwater aquarium in particular can be more expensive. With that come the vibrant, colourful, delicate creatures, fascinating corals, reef fauna and live rock. They can also have more attitude and aggression if that’s your thing, particularly if you were to choose meat eating fish like the piranha. Variations and combinations of rocks, woods, plants and sands can be sculpted to suit your preferences.Īs you’re probably aware, a saltwater aquarium, particularly a reef aquarium, is a wonderful re-creation of the ocean. If any problems ever were to occur in the maintenance of the aquarium environment, freshwater creatures are more forgiving and less fragile than saltwater. The combination of the earthy colours and sleek lines of freshwater fish and fauna can look particularly striking in a luxurious interior.įreshwater inhabitants tend to be much hardier and generally less expensive than saltwater aquarium inhabitants. They aren’t always as vibrantly coloured as saltwater aquarium creatures, but can definitely come in an array of amazing patterns and uniquely fascinating shapes. The livestock in freshwater aquaria are inhabitants from rivers, lakes and streams. However, if you were to go for a heavily planted freshwater aquarium for example, additional special lighting, fertilizers and carbon dioxide will be required and the costs can really add up fast. ![]() Colourful and natural, they provide an impressive visual whilst requiring a less demanding maintenance regime and lower operating costs. ![]() Cost and maintenance are two major factors you need to consider as well.įreshwater tropical aquariums are a great place to start in your fish keeping hobby. When it comes to choosing which ecosystem you want, it’s not all about aesthetics. There are, however, a number of aspects that differentiate the two. So which one is best for you?īoth types of aquarium have their rewards and challenges and both are incredibly stunning showpieces for your room. The next step is deciding on whether to have a freshwater or saltwater aquarium! It is probably one of the most important decisions you’re going to have to make with regards to the fish tank. So you’re ready to take the plunge in to the exclusive club of luxury aquarium owners. Saltwater Aquarium vs Freshwater May 2013 ![]() What comprised that original series occurs much further in the future when there’s barely anything of humanity left. As seen in the later strips, it’s not long from that point before robots are building other robots and zombies are wiping out all around them. A tale of scientific skullduggery and greed for recognition results in uncontrolled experimentation and the curse of the zombies being loosed on the world. Later also featured along with everything else in the all-encompassing Zombies vs Robots Omnibus, ‘Which Came First’ is a clarification as to how the world of zombies and robots originated. ![]() The zombies are shambling, spiky and skeletal, and the robots have a fascinating retro tin can look to them. He changed his style for Zombies vs Robots from muddy watercolour painting to scratchy pencil and ink with colouring, and his designs are great. Wood can be a fantastic artist, but his strength is very much the single striking image rather than sequential comics storytelling. The original comics sold out, and the first edition of the graphic novel collecting them sold out, hence a rapid reprinting with the Complete portion of the title being earned by the inclusion of a couple of shorter stories and Zombies vs Robots vs Amazons in its entirety. Back in the day, Zombies vs Robots was a massive success, surely far beyond the expectations of creators Chris Ryall and Ashley Woods. McAfee provides a solid list of standard security features, from antivirus and anti-malware protection, a two-way firewall, and antispam measures to real-time safeguards, parental controls, and search result rankings.Īs befits a high-end suite, Total Protection 2012 also comes with some helpful extras, such as a secure file shredder, encrypted local storage, online backup, some basic Wi-Fi protection on home-based wireless networks, and tools for tweaking system performance. This was the strongest part of the McAfee 2012 efforts, making the suite visually distinct without sacrificing usability. Click on one for more configuration settings. Mouse over the big subcategories at the bottom and a general status message appears next to the name. Click on any of the four categories just below the status bar and the pane just to the right reveals links that let you drill deeper into your security status. The "Your computer is secure" message is bolstered by "No action required," a helpful tip. For example, firewall settings control how you access the Web, so they're listed under Web and E-mail Protection.Īlso, McAfee stands out for not only color-coding what your status is, but also adding in what that means. Features have been clearly delineated, and potentially confusing names have been jettisoned. To its shame, McAfee's uninstallation process left a few Registry keys behind, too.įirst introduced in 2010, the unusual vertically oriented design is surprisingly easy to use. We also had problems when running other essential programs, such as a Web browser, while installing. While there are legitimate security and performance problems that can be created by running two competing suites simultaneously, this is the kind of trouble that is not acceptable from with a expensive security suite. ![]() If it can't find them, you'll have to reboot and reinstall McAfee. If that happens to you, it will attempt to find the offending remnants. The registration process was simple enough, but it also aggressively detects competing suites to the point where the slightest bit of Registry detritus will cause the installation to freak out. Installing McAfee was where our problems with the suite began. Meanwhile, the suite's performance on tests both from CNET Labs and independent sources calls into question how effective it really is. McAfee Total Protection 2012 adds some new features, but these are frankly more about keeping up with the Joneses-or at least, keeping up with the Nortons and Kasperskys-than actually pushing any kind of innovation. Since then, the annual updates have been incremental at best, improving the feature set yet not making substantial changes overall. McAfee released a major overhaul to its security suite back in 2010, coming up with a new vertically oriented interface that made navigating much easier. Requires your device to have an Internet/data plan and be turned on.The bottom line: McAfee takes aim at blocking bots in its latest version, although weak test scores mean that we don't recommend this year's McAfee suite. **Norton Cloud Backup features are only available on Windows (excluding Windows 10 in S mode, Windows running on ARM processor).

With this setup, you play as the original Alphaverse Bayonetta along with other Bayonetta variants, with each having something unique to offer to help keep combat feeling fresh. “Within the Trinity of Realities the World of Chaos is actually made up of countless universes, all stacked together,” Rodin explains in the game’s first chapter. Through the metaphorical shattering of Bayonetta as we know her, we get the pleasure of being introduced to different versions of her that exist throughout the game’s expansive Multiverse. I’m excited to share that not only is Bayonetta 3 the best entry in the series by far, but that yes, it was indeed worth the wait, and then some.īayonetta 3 opens with the immediate shocker of seeing the version of Bayonetta we’ve come to know and love in the first and second games bested and shattered to pieces by a mysterious, shadowy foe. With so much hype built up around the game over the years, there are those who may have concerns in regards to whether Bayonetta 3 holds up to previous entries in the series, and whether the game was worth the wait as a whole. It’s wild to think about how Bayonetta 3 was first announced all the way back in 2017 at The Game Awards and now, nearly five years after that initial announcement, it is finally making its way into fans’ eager hands. ![]() Home Tribune Premium Content Entertainment Pop Culture Video Games Bayonetta 3 review: Magical Multiverse Bayonetta 3 review: Magical Multiverse Video Games OctoA scene from Bayonetta 3.

I must confess, that previously, my biggest use for online teaching was in presenting short videos with discussions and quizzes to follow or to end the school year with some kind of big, culminating show on power point or google maps. ![]() So where was my classroom? How could I salvage meaning out of this kind of teaching without a student body in the classroom to build up momentum and chemistry? Suddenly all of us educators were thrown into a world of unknown teaching delivery-that seemed inconceivable when we first considered it-100% remote learning from home, with most of our students needing one-on-one academic assistance, even if their IEP’s technically said differently. I can recall making eye contact with staff who I knew I would probably never see again as they finished up their 2-week notice at home and not with their colleagues.Īlthough it felt like an invisible hurricane was drawing near-most of us still held a very naïve timeline in our heads–thinking we would still return to school in a week, or perhaps two, tops. How do I begin to find words that convey what this journey has been like for a classroom teacher this past year?įor a workaholic, year-round school like APTS, it really was a great shock to suddenly be told to pack up our laptops and go home back on March 13 th. Promoting a sense of place and inter relatedness through technology and online learning Alternative Paths Training School & Programs ![]() Once i had it all designed, it was a simple case of cutting the strings up and soldering them all together. ‘Start’ is where the controller is connected, and the ‘pwr’s are the parts of the string that are also connected to the 5V supply. This is what you can see in the bottom right of the drawing. It was a simple case of ‘inject’ wherever reasonably possible. I didn’t do any fancy calculations at this point. As the strings are only 5V voltage drop is a big issue. The next step was to figure out how to power the LEDs and more importantly how to overcome the Voltage drop along the cables. As the maximum limit of the ESPixel controllers is 512, I’ve divided the grid into 4, meaning each controller is configured for 156 Pixels (468 Channels). So the total Pixel dimensions is 13 High x 48 Wide Giving a total of 624 Pixels.Įach pixel requires 3 data ‘channels’ (Red,Green,Blue) meaning a total of 1872 Data channels are needed.

The next job was to design and print some waterproof enclosures for them you can read about where i got the design in my other post. This seems to work pretty reliably so far. This is the max rated input voltage for the esp and increases the data line voltage slightly. In the end i replaced the 3.3v regulator with 3.6v instead. So i can only assume that the WS2812 LEDs and the WS2811 strings are not compatible? If i added another WS2812 LED that also worked fine. ![]() The individual led worked fine but not the string connected after it. In the mean time, connecting it directly to the 3.3v data from the ESP seems to work fine.įirst thing to note – don’t bother getting white boards! I though white would be cool as it’s a bit different and almost christmasy… Except you can barely see the traces which is actually rather annoying in an test/development situation! I soldered the components on including the WS2812 LED as mentioned in the Hackaday post but it wasn’t working. Hopefully i can make a WS2812 fit on the PCB that’s already being manufactured… I haven’t come up with a sleek method to shift the 3.3v up, but i did come across this post on HackADay, which will do the trick. After a bit of testing / googling it turns out that the Generic Level Shifters don’t switch fast enough for the data. This would allow me to program and test the ESP modules in advance. Whilst waiting for the boards to be made, i put a prototype together. I managed to squash it into 2.5x5cm so i can fit two of them into the 5x5cm limit board size. I was in a bit of a rush to get this done fairly soon as it can take a few weeks to receive them, still great value for money. Knowing i was going too need a few of these, i designed a PCB and sent it off to DirtyPCBs to get them made. Knowing it was all now working as planned, i drafted up a schematic… A 10K pullup resistor on the data line of the Led strip seemed to fix the issue. I was getting strange erratic results from the LED strip. Configuring the ESP via the web interface was easy enough. Having the software side looking promising i programmed a NodeMCU board with the firmware and wired up a Pixel RGB LED Strip. I highly recommend checking out the ESPixelStick GitHub if you plan on building any ESP based lighting controllers. The only thing i had to edit in the code was my access point credentials. I’ll be able to upload the firmware to the ESP and then do all the configuration through it’s web interface. I came across the ESPixelStick project which is perfect. I did a quick search online for an overall diagram of system but couldn’t find anything, so i came up with this. With the ESP8266 being my personal favorite ‘WiFi enabled’ Micro-controller, a quick google discovered that others had already done exactly what i have set out to achieve with regards to the controller. My original plan was to use RS485 Serial connection to send the data around to the controllers as i know this is how people have done it in the past, i also have a little experience with RS485 / Serial so there would be less of a learning curve.Īfter a little bit of research i came to the conclusion that the Serial communication method is a little out-dated and naturally IP / Wireless has become the norm. I’ll need to build controllers which will take the data from the main PC running the sequencing software ( Vixen) and in turn switch on the correct LED’s at the designated values.
