The behavior exhibited was not in alignment with the values or teachings our district strives to uphold. I was relieved that the demo ended before I could go in.'We would never want anyone in our schools, especially visitors, to feel insulted, upset, or disgusted by our behavior. He was at a domicile that very much reminded me of a place a troll would live. By the end of my time with the game, my young avatar had passed through a portal under the stairs and had come to a threshold, hugging his teddy bear. That is, unless you’re playing Among the Sleep. In other words, “you stay away from trolls in Norway,” Andreas said. His colleague corrected him: “No, actually, the troll asks him how he eats so much, and the boy tells him he cut a hole in his stomach, so the troll cuts open his belly.” Another cut in, “That’s a children’s story we get told from five or six years.” The food falls into a sack,” another said, “and the troll eats too much and bursts open and dies.” “So he challenges the troll to a porridge-eating duel in order to earn his freedom,” one said. “One tale is about a child who has been caught by a troll and is trying to escape,” they told me, talking over each other, filling in the gaps in each other’s sentences. “No, actually, the troll asks him how he eats so much, and the boy tells him he cut a hole in his stomach, so the troll cuts open his belly.” It seems these stories mostly involve mythical creatures that live in the forest and drag children by their heels underground, a vibe I definitely took away from the game. “Some of them are horrible,” claimed Andreas. Just what causes a young Norwegian’s mind to run afoul with thoughts of ghouls and things that go bump in the night? It turns out Norway is infamous for demented fairy tales and grotesque children’s stories that are absorbed at a very young age. I had to sleep with the lights on until I was up in years.” He clarified, “but, not so much anymore.” Anders Ugland, the gameplay designer, confessed his own childhood fears: “Closets, you don’t know what’s behind them!” And, Adrian Tingstad Husby, who does a little bit of everything, was terrified by the household attic. ![]() Ole Andreas Jordet, a self-described code monkey, spoke up. And they told me that while they were influenced by Amnesia: The Dark Descent, they were mostly inspired by their own bad dreams and phobias as kids. Immersion is important to horror, they told me. Patrons were having macchiatos, eating lunch, banging dishes and silverware, but my noise-canceling headphones took care of most of it. Besides that, the demo was genuinely spooky, I told them, even though I had played it in less than ideal circumstances. I knew what they meant, as one of the more frightful parts of the demo was glancing up from the screen to be startled by a homeless man collecting bottles right outside the cafe window. I had to sleep with the lights on until I was up in years.” “It’s much nicer here,” they said of the weather, “but it can be scary here as well, in a different way.” They hail from European state of Norway, which they described as a very dark, dank place with a lot of sinister forests and long shadows cast on the chilly Norwegian Sea. It tapped into some long-repressed memories of being a superstitious child, when I’d place my shoes in exactly the right position under my bed because I’d otherwise suffer nightmares.Īfter I was done with the demo, I came back to the table and asked the guys why they were compelled to work with childhood fears. I’ll say that the tenor held me for long enough for my imagination to run around. Because you know that at any moment something nasty is going to leap forth from the shadows and freak you the hell out, it’s pretty unsettling to see these little hands and legs bobbing out. ![]() Climbing the dresser is an inelegant task. Crawling around on all fours seems alien. My takeaway is this: while every horrific game makes your skin crawl with foreboding atmosphere and horror movie tricks (cue s ul ponticello strings), this time you’re on edge more because you’re responsible for the welfare of a small child.

In addition to this funding, MEOPAR has committed a $1 million contribution to research cruise support.Īmongst the technology and equipment mobilized onboard the Atlantic Condor is a custom A-frame assembly designed and manufactured by a team of 75 at Hawboldt Industries in Chester, Nova Scotia. To date, Irving Shipbuilding has committed more than $20 million in Value Proposition investments toward creating a sustainable marine industry across Canada. Irving Shipbuilding is supporting the construction of the portable MORI marine labs with $2 million in funding as part of the company’s Industrial and Technical Benefits commitment under the National Shipbuilding Strategy. MORI’s creative approach also has the potential to be more flexible, economical and scalable than purchasing or building a new fleet of specialized research vessels. This portable equipment can temporarily transform industry workhorse vessels, like the Atlantic Condor, into complex research vessels, combining custom scientific infrastructure with the extensive offshore expertise of industry crews. The MORI concept imagines a modular system of transportable, interoperable laboratories and research infrastructure that can be used in various combinations on a range of non-specialized vessels. MEOPAR’s possible solution to this challenge is Modular Ocean Research Infrastructure (MORI)-an alternative pathway to sophisticated vessel-based research and an opportunity for scientists and the private sector to work together to advance our understanding of the ocean. ![]() HALIFAX, NS: Canadian scientists have a vast amount of ocean real estate to explore and limited access to the vessels that can get them there. 1/13/2024 0 Comments Comic book collector app![]() This will also make it a bit easier to get my data from the old CBI app loaded if this “unlinked” comics issue can’t be resolved. Go to the add issue, enter in a title, and it pulls up a list of issues, just select the ones you want to add, and poof, they’re in your database.

Supposedly it exists on the iPad as well, however the app layout and function is a bit different, and getting to the point where I can sync to the core database is not as intuitive. There is a feature on the iPhone version of the app to update the data from the core. I was then able to load a set of comics to the iOS app, however only very little data shows up. Importing my data from CBI to the Comic Connect website worked okay, but the collection came up as being “unlinked”.

While most kits can be used most anywhere, some do require more or less humidity or particular low-light conditions. The best Linux alternative is SmartGit.Its not free, so if youre looking for a free alternative, you could try GitAhead or GitKraken Client. Growing conditions: Additionally, you'll want to look at the growing conditions necessary before choosing a kit. GitX is not available for Linux but there are plenty of alternatives that runs on Linux with similar functionality.Some kits will produce one "flush," or harvest, of mushrooms, while others can produce multiple flushes, Dorr explains. Size: Then, consider how many 'shrooms you're hoping to get your hands on.Meanwhile, if you do want a more hands-on approach, other kits may require inoculating a separate substrate that is not included with the kit. This kind of kit requires no other materials, tools, nor skills," says Bunyard. "Some kits are one-step: You simply open the package (you may need to soak with water), and growth immediately ensues. Ease of use: From there, you'll want to think about your experience level growing mushrooms."From oyster to shiitake to Lion's mane, you can find a kit for just about any type," says Hall. Type of mushroom: With so many easy-to-use kits available these days, Brandy Hall, founder and managing director of Shades of Green Permaculture, says the most important thing to look for in a kit is the type of mushroom you like to eat.When conditions are right, "pins," or baby mushrooms, will begin to grow and the mushrooms can double in size each day. "Most grow kits include a 'myceliated block,' which is the mycelium (roots of the mushroom) growing over a substrate (most likely a hardwood sawdust), which creates a hardened 'block,' which mushrooms grow from," Dorr adds. "Most mushrooms grow with dappled sunlight, so a small 12-inch-by-6-inch spot on your kitchen counter works perfectly," says Alex Dorr, mycology expert and founder of Mushroom Revival Inc. To get them started, you'll need just a little water and a small amount of space. Mushroom kits often include everything you'll need to get growing. These kits make it simple to grow mushrooms right in your own kitchen (or even inside a closet!). With a mushroom kit, you also won't have to worry about the animals and pests wreaking havoc on your outdoor garden. ![]() ![]() "Growing from kits is the easiest way to go, and ideal for first-timers," explains Britt Bunyard, the co-author of The Beginner's Guide to Mushrooms. While some mushrooms are easier to cultivate than others, there is a wide variety that can be grown at home. 1/12/2024 0 Comments Diffraction grating definitionIn optics, a diffraction grating is an optical component with a periodic structure, which splits and diffracts light into several beams travelling in different directions. A similar color separation seen from thin layers of oil (or gasoline, etc.) on water, known as iridescence, are not caused by diffraction from a grating but rather by thin film interference from the closely stacked transmissive layers.įreebase 0.0 / 0 votes Rate this definition: Decorative patterned plastic films based on reflective grating patches are inexpensive and commonplace. Diffraction colors also appear when one looks at a bright point source through a translucent fine-pitch umbrella-fabric covering. A usual diffraction grating has parallel lines (It is true for 1-dimensional gratings, but 2 or 3-dimensional gratings are also possible and they have their own applications such as wavefront measurement), while a CD has a spiral of finely spaced data tracks. Rainbow-like colors from closely spaced narrow tracks on optical data storage disks such as CDs or DVDs are an example of light diffraction caused by diffraction gratings. Rogers (1804–1882) took over the lead and, by the end of the 19th century, the concave gratings of Henry Augustus Rowland (1848–1901) were the best available.A diffraction grating can create "rainbow" colors when it is illuminated by a wide-spectrum (e.g., continuous) light source. Gratings with the lowest line-distance (d) were created, in the 1860s, by Friedrich Adolph Nobert (1806–1881) in Greifswald then the two Americans Lewis Morris Rutherfurd (1816–1892) and William B. Using these principles, Fraunhofer was the first who used a diffraction grating to obtain line spectra and the first who measured the wavelengths of spectral lines with a diffraction grating. The principles of diffraction were discovered by Thomas Young and Augustin-Jean Fresnel. This was similar to notable German physicist Joseph von Fraunhofer's wire diffraction grating in 1821. The first man-made diffraction grating was made around 1785 by Philadelphia inventor David Rittenhouse, who strung hairs between two finely threaded screws. There are also gratings that modulate the phases of incident waves rather than the amplitude, and these type of gratings can be produced frequently by using holography.James Gregory (1638–1675) observed the diffraction patterns caused by a bird feather, which was effectively the first diffraction grating (in a natural form) to be discovered, about a year after Isaac Newton's prism experiments. Such a grating modulates the amplitude of an incident wave on it to create a diffraction pattern. ![]() Because of this, diffraction gratings are commonly used in monochromators and spectrometers, but other applications are also possible such as optical encoders for high precision motion control and wavefront measurement.For typical applications, a reflective grating has ridges or rulings on its surface while a transmissive grating has transmissive or hollow slits on its surface. ![]() The grating acts as a dispersive element. The directions or diffraction angles of these beams depend on the wave (light) incident angle to the diffraction grating, the spacing or distance between adjacent diffracting elements (e.g., parallel slits for a transmission grating) on the grating, and the wavelength of the incident light. The emerging coloration is a form of structural coloration. In optics, a diffraction grating is an optical component with a periodic structure that diffracts light into several beams travelling in different directions (i.e., different diffraction angles).
