Life is strange 2 mushroom11/10/2023 ![]() ![]() Just like most of the other students, she came to Blackwell due to her admiration of photography teacher Mark Jefferson. Her parents own the "Chase Space", a famous gallery in her hometown Seattle that Max is impressed by. Victoria comes from a very wealthy background, similar to Nathan Prescott. I'm sure it drives her crazy when there's somebody she can't buy or seduce. We can all tell she's trying to win the " Everyday Hero" contest. Jefferson, which is so obvious that I'm embarrassed for her. Her work is a little cold, but she has a good eye. She can even say all those French names that break my tongue. The odd thing is that she does know art and photography. Then again, she's in the Vortex Club, and they seem to own the school, so maybe that's why she doesn't give a shit. She actually wastes her time calling me out in class and taunting Kate Marsh.įor reals? I wish her parents could see her in action. Victoria does everything for maximum drama. 18 year olds at prestigious academy should be evolving into artists and scholars. I just don't know why somebody who's so rich and beautiful needs to be so fucking mean. Then there's Victoria Chase, the elite of Blackwell Academy, and a total bitch. Maybe I'm being extra crispy sensitive, but I think Victoria wants life here to be like her own reality show. As if I'm at Blackwell to strike fashion poses. I could feel INSTANT JUDGEMENT when she looked at my raggedy ass clothes. The following is what Max wrote about Victoria in her journal:Īnd how could I forget Victoria Chase? Rich, stylish, entitled. ![]() Her attention-seeking tendencies, inappropriately seductive behavior and exaggerated emotions imply that she may suffer from some form of Histrionic Personality Disorder. She also presumably attends an event at the Bean Hip Cafe, evident from the flyer in her room about Jefferson's show there. Victoria seems to have great admiration for Jefferson, displaying his artwork in her room and attempting to flirt with him so her work gets out. It seems as though there is more to her than meets the eye and that she is secretly just hopeful for a future career in photography and wants to fit in. She confides in Max that she overcompensates despite her talent and supposed confidence. She is ambitious as she had inquired about having her pictures displayed in the Kroft Gallery she was rejected.Ĭontrary to the initial impression, Victoria has a vulnerable side. She also seems to be quite studious due to her high GPA and her knowledgeable responses in Mark Jefferson's class. Victoria has a secret nerdy side, evident from the collectible figurine Max finds in her bedroom in " Chaos Theory". It is implied that she only picks on Max out of envy and due to her image at Blackwell-even though she would like to hang out with Max, Victoria believes she is unable to because of her popularity. Hayden Jones comments that she is funny when intoxicated. She picks on Max and other students and is known to be quite dramatic. Victoria gossips and seems like the stereotypical bitchy queen-bee figure at Blackwell. Max Caulfield frequently feels envy regarding her possessions. Rich and arrogant, Victoria is a typical snob who boasts about her expensive designer clothing and state-of-the-art electronic equipment for her classes. ![]()

Codon chart dna to mrna11/10/2023 ![]() A similar site in vertebrates was characterized by Marilyn Kozak and is thus known as the Kozak box. In bacteria, this site is known as the Shine-Dalgarno box (AGGAGG), after scientists John Shine and Lynn Dalgarno, who first characterized it. ![]() So, what is the purpose of the UTR? It turns out that the leader sequence is important because it contains a ribosome-binding site. This portion of mRNA is located between the first nucleotide that is transcribed and the start codon (AUG) of the coding region, and it does not affect the sequence of amino acids in a protein (Figure 3). In particular, there is an area near the 5' end of the molecule that is known as the untranslated region (UTR) or leader sequence. Interestingly, not all regions of an mRNA molecule correspond to particular amino acids. The rRNA catalyzes the attachment of each new amino acid to the growing chain. Within the ribosome, the mRNA and aminoacyl-tRNA complexes are held together closely, which facilitates base-pairing. The idea that tRNA was an adaptor molecule was first proposed by Francis Crick, co-discoverer of DNA structure, who did much of the key work in deciphering the genetic code (Crick, 1958). ![]() The tRNA molecules are adaptor molecules-they have one end that can read the triplet code in the mRNA through complementary base-pairing, and another end that attaches to a specific amino acid (Chapeville et al., 1962 Grunberger et al., 1969). The ribosomal subunits contain proteins and specialized RNA molecules-specifically, ribosomal RNA ( rRNA) and transfer RNA ( tRNA). Each subunit exists separately in the cytoplasm, but the two join together on the mRNA molecule. In all types of cells, the ribosome is composed of two subunits: the large (50S) subunit and the small (30S) subunit (S, for svedberg unit, is a measure of sedimentation velocity and, therefore, mass). In this situation, translation begins at the 5' end of the mRNA while the 3' end is still attached to DNA. On the other hand, in prokaryotic organisms, ribosomes can attach to mRNA while it is still being transcribed. ![]() In eukaryotes, mature mRNA molecules must leave the nucleus and travel to the cytoplasm, where the ribosomes are located. Within all cells, the translation machinery resides within a specialized organelle called the ribosome. ![]()

![]() Asus ROG Ally Z1 Extreme specificationsīefore we get into the review, let's check the complete specifications and feature list for the Asus ROG Ally with Ryzen Z1 Extreme CPU here. Check out the answers to these questions and more in our complete review for the Asus ROG Ally review here. During our time with the ROG Ally, we ran an extensive set of tests on the console to try to figure out its performance and if it is worth your money. However, right before the launch, we got a chance to use the hand-held gaming console for about two weeks. Beyond the idea of a globally available handheld gaming device, the AMD Zen 4 And RDNA 3-powered hardware (Steam Deck has Zen 2 and RDNA 3) helped ROG Ally turn into one of the must-haves.Īsus ROG Ally is already available for sale in the Indian market on e-commerce platforms including Flipkart and Asus e-store for INR 69,990.

Grow up quotes for adults11/9/2023 ![]() There were times when the grief in my life made it impossible to believe that God was alive and working, or the doubts were so great it seemed hopeless to believe anything at all, but as I look at the faces in the seats before me I now once again that we're all hear for a reason, a purpose that is often beyond us. And I have come to realize that we're never alone everyone has been through their own valley or is walking through it now. It's not really living until you've thrown your heart and soul on the line, rising failure and suffering loss. ![]() As I grew, I began to understand what my mother meant: It is those times of struggle and pain that teach us how to live. There have been times, especially during those early years without her, that I thought time in the valley was anything but a blessing, but now I know otherwise. Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value. What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make. And when life wounds you, I hope it is because you loved people, not because you mistreated them." It was a blessing of sorts, a blessing that forges love in the darkest places.

VUE provides a flexible visual environment for. The VUE project is focused on creating flexible tools for managing and integrating digital resources in support of teaching, learning and research. In previous years it has been noted that building a concept map enabled the process of brainstorming and sharing what each team member knew about their design project problem and also aided in finding good solutions. Interactive Graphic Organizer - The Visual Understanding Environment (VUE) is Open Source downloadable mind mapping software based at Tufts University. If it is your first time developing a concept map, start sketching the concept map on paper or on a white board. There are many tools available to help you develop a concept map for your design project including a number of software tools that can be downloaded and used at no charge.

"Concept mapping creates a visual representation of the relationships among a set of targeted topics. Concept mapping involves defining a topic, adding related topics, and linking related ideas. Concept maps may be simple designs illustrating a central theme and a few associated topics, or complex structures that delineate hierarchical or multiple relationships. The tool helped us make connections and identify similarities, links, and relationships between the theories.Concept Maps are used to graphically represent ideas and how they relate to each other. While I keep notes for all my courses, it was very helpful to have this assignment because it helped me keep my thinking straight as we studied the wide variety of learning theories. One of the major assignments for this course was to create an ongoing map of the learning theories as we studied them using Visual Understanding Environment (VUE), a mind mapping tool developed by Tufts University. It reminds me of an advertising campaign by a watch company: “In order to break the rules, you first must master them.” I love the way we learn over time, from one generation to the next, building ideas and understanding through a time-travelling collaborationship, in that people’s ideas and contributions live on, though they are adapted and modified, in the theories of those that follow. I loved learning about the evolution of learning theory and the way successive theories build on what came before. This emphasized the need to interact with the learning and the interactive nature of the development of learning theory: a clear example of collaborationships, whereby what is developed together is greater than what is developed in isolation. ![]() In ETEC 512, we studied learning theories and the relationships between them. ![]()

![]() ![]() My flower cutting garden and my vegetable garden are located in the same area. I love this view looking down.Īnd of course, on one of the landings off the West Terrace, reclining in the foliage, is the lady – La Riviere by Aristide Maillol. ![]() It looks so beautiful here on the Maine terrace.Īnd here is one of my planters from above. I bought this massive stone trough at Trade Secrets in 2013. Here is my big trough planted with many succulents. Some lilies can be quite tall – some grow in height up to six feet. Here is a closeup of one of the colorful lily blooms. Lilium is a genus of herbaceous flowering plants growing from bulbs and all with large, prominent flowers. Here are true lilies growing outside this leaded window, with a variety of hostas below. I love the large leaves of Alocasia, also known as elephant ear. This is an Alocasia planted in a faux bois pot and paired with Lysimachia. Many made their own shortcakes with cookies, whipped cream, strawberries, and peaches. My guests from the Bar Harbor Garden Club were also served refreshing pomegranate iced tea and blueberry scones.Īnd lots and lots of fresh fruit – there’s nothing better than fruit on a warm summer’s day. These ferns, Nephrolepis exaltata ‘Bostoniensis’, are among the most popular with their frilly leaves and long, hanging fronds. I hang ferns on the West Terrace every year. The planters on the ledge are the ones I planted last May – everything has grown so beautifully. Just up these steps from the main terrace is my West Terrace, where I often serve refreshments under the kiwi vine-covered pergola. They thrive on this terrace all season long. ![]() My greenhouse at Skylands cannot accommodate the large plants, so many of them are wintered over at my Bedford farm and then loaded onto a trailer to Maine for the summer months. One of my favorite traditions is coming to Skylands in spring and filling the large planters on my terrace with beautiful specimens. These cookies are dense with chocolate chips, raisins, pecans, and more. We made fresh cookies early that morning – sugar cookies, chocolate cookies, chocolate chip cookies and one of my favorites – ne plus ultra cookies. I gave 60-guests a tour of Skylands and then we all enjoyed refreshments on my terrace. On this day, I hosted a gathering for the Bar Harbor Garden Club in celebration of its 85th Anniversary. Through the trees is a beautiful summer view of Seal Harbor. Tomatoes, cucumbers, beans – everything comes straight from my garden.Īnd of course, the adults also have delicious cocktails – these glasses are topped with Himalayan pink salt and black salt for margaritas. This was one of our first salads at Skylands. Once the season is over, we always make sure the moss we harvested is returned to the forest where it can regenerate and flourish. I think it looks much better now.ĭuring summer, we also fill several garden planters with moss and other natural elements. Recently, I gave the tops a good pruning – it had grown so tall and unruly. I’ve had this old cactus for quite some time. When arranging cut lilies, handle them with care – they can bruise easily.Īnd don’t forget, all lilies have heavily pollinated stamens which stain, so as soon as the flower opens, it’s important to gently pull the anthers with a tissue, or pinch them off with gloved fingers. Here are some of the lovely lily flowers from my long pergola at Bedford. They come in two sizes – 20-inches and 16-inches long. These beautiful and bold green houseplants are in my faux wicker trough planters from my collection at QVC. Gorgeous arrangements don’t always have to be giant in size – these lily arrangements work perfectly on this table in my living room. We planted more than 1500 white lilies of various types and transported some by truck to Skylands. The lilies are from my garden at Bedford. About 100-stems of lilies were used for this arrangement made by Kevin. This grand faux-bois cement table is where I like to display large flower arrangements. The Living Hall at Skylands is always used during summer months. ![]()

Arch linux packages11/9/2023 ![]() ![]() Tip: If you are unable to boot after a kernel update, you can downgrade the kernel chrooting into the system. Go into the directory /var/cache/pacman/pkg and downgrade at least linux, linux-headers and any kernel modules. In case of issue with a new kernel, the Linux packages can be downgraded to the last working ones #Using the pacman cache. Once the package is reverted, temporarily add it to the IgnorePkg section of nf, until the difficulty with the updated package is resolved. Note that type will be xz for older package builds, and zst for those following the 2020 change. # pacman -U file:///var/cache/pacman/pkg/ package- old_. If a library or other package needs to be downgraded with the packages, please be aware that you will have to downgrade this package yourself as well. Dependency changes will be handled, but pacman will not handle version conflicts. This process will remove the current package and install the older version. If a package was installed at an earlier stage, and the pacman cache was not cleaned, install an earlier version from /var/cache/pacman/pkg/.

Goodsync vs syncback11/9/2023 ![]() Several versions of this program are available, each with different features, including SyncBackFree, SyncBack Lite, SyncBackSE, and SyncBackPro.Īll versions of SyncBack let you sync select files and folders, back up to FTP, compress files, and set other basic options. ![]() SyncBack is a syncing application that you install on computers you want to back up and synchronize. SyncBack Touch is required if you want to sync to another computer on your network. MacOS and Linux users can only use SyncBack Touch among the SyncBack options. You can buy GoodSync to get more features beyond the free version. The free version of GoodSync has some limitations-a maximum number of files that you can sync for any single job and a maximum number of jobs you can make in any one account. If you don't use an online service, GoodSync works like a P2P file sync program-no data is stored online. Unlike most file sync software programs, GoodSync lets you connect to a variety of locations in addition to your computer folders, like FTP servers and cloud storage services. However, you can take it a step further and connect the program to your phone to back up your photos and videos automatically or to send files from your computer to your phone on a schedule. Like most file sync apps, GoodSync keeps two folders in sync with each other. ![]() Tons of options can be customized, and it works seamlessly between desktop and mobile devices. If you're looking for a file syncing program with the most options and greatest flexibility, you can't go wrong with GoodSync. Can get confusing with all the available settings. ![]()

Bnha burnin11/9/2023 ![]() ![]() Once the crisis is over, Burnin leaves the place with Endeavor, who is upset by All Might's intervention. As Endeavor prepares to attack, All Might appears and punches all the bombers into the sky, allowing the Flame Hero to destroy them all with a Flashfire Fist: Prominence Burn without causing any damage to the city. Seeing the chaotic mess, Burnin warns Endeavor that they can't do anything yet, but the hero corrects her by saying that the longer they wait, the more destruction the villain will cause, so they must act now, assuring his sidekick that he will take responsibility for any damage he can cause, which surprises her. Many heroes head to Naruhata to face the threat, including Endeavor, who is accompanied by Burnin. The villain Number 6 attempts to kill Koichi, and during the fight, he transforms into a being of energy that splits into several mini bombers, wreaking havoc over the city. Several weeks later the Naruhata Lockdown incident takes place. Naruhata Lockdown Arc īurnin arrives to Naruhata along with Endeavor. After this, Burnin watches along with her teammates the development of events, such as the fight between The Crawler and Bee☆Pop, as well as The Crawler flying away from Endeavor with an unconscious Pop☆Step in his hands. Since he needs a few minutes to cool down, Endeavor orders to signal the other heroes to try to capture the villain and the vigilante. ![]() Once they report all citizens have been evacuated, the Flaming Sidekickers send up signal flames to Endeavor to let him know that he can uses his Hellflame Quirk without worry.Įndeavor uses his Ultimate Move Hellfire Storm to defeat Bee☆Pop, but when Burnin spots The Crawler, she yells out for Endeavor, and he is forced to cancel his attack, much to his displeasure.
