Note that the chain signal starts green in this case.Īnd same result if I put both chain signals down at once (both chain signals start off red). Restarting the tutorial, I tried placing a single chain signal further up connecting to the other section. Note that the chain signal starts off red if you put it in this position. No joy, the train carries on to the red signal. To stop the cyan train, I have tried placing a single chain signal along its path in the location where my cursor is. If you run the trains, the cyan train at the bottom travels to stop at the red signal below the top cyan train. Here is the example before any user interaction. Whatever I do, I can't stop the bottom cyan train using one signal and I don't understand why. This latest tutorial test I have made work but only by fluke.įirst of all I am trying to understand the logic, so maybe you can help me with this example.

![]() ![]() She starts a romance between her hypochondriacal co-worker Georgette and Joseph, a patron of the cafe. She persuades her father to follow his dream of touring the world by stealing his garden gnome and having a flight attendant friend mail pictures of it posing with landmarks from all over the world. She escorts a blind man to the Métro station while giving him a rich description of the street scenes he passes. Amélie happily embarks on her new mission.Īmélie secretly executes complex schemes that positively affect the lives of those around her. Moved to tears by the discovery and the memories it holds, Bretodeau resolves to reconcile with his estranged daughter and the grandson he has never met. Amélie finds the man, Dominique Bretodeau, and surreptitiously gives him the box. ![]() He recalls the boy's name as "Bretodeau". She promises herself that if it makes him happy, she will devote her life to bringing happiness to others.Īfter asking the apartment's concierge and several old tenants about the boy's identity, Amélie meets her reclusive neighbour, Raymond Dufayel, an artist with brittle bone disease who replicates Pierre-Auguste Renoir's 1881 painting Luncheon of the Boating Party every year. Amélie resolves to track down the boy and return the box to him. On 31 August 1997, startled by the news of the death of Diana, Princess of Wales, Amélie drops a plastic perfume-stopper, which dislodges a wall tile and accidentally reveals an old metal box which contains childhood memorabilia hidden by a boy who lived in her apartment decades earlier. She is single and lets her imagination roam freely, finding contentment in simple pleasures like dipping her hand into grain sacks, cracking crème brûlée with a spoon, and skipping stones along the Canal Saint-Martin. Amélie leaves home at the age of 18 and becomes a waitress at the Café des 2 Moulins in Montmartre, which is staffed and frequented by a collection of eccentrics. As a result, her father, Raphaël, withdraws more and more from society. When Amélie is six, her mother, Amandine, is killed when a suicidal Canadian tourist jumps from the roof of Notre-Dame de Paris and lands on her. To cope with her loneliness, Amélie develops an active imagination and a mischievous personality. The film was a major commercial success, grossing $174.2 million worldwide against a budget of $10 million, and is one of the biggest international successes for a French film.Īmélie Poulain is born in June 1974 and brought up by eccentric parents who – incorrectly believing that she has a heart defect – decide to home-school her. ![]() It was nominated for five Academy Awards, including Best Foreign Language Film and Best Original Screenplay. Amélie won Best Film at the European Film Awards, four César Awards, including Best Film and Best Director, and two British Academy Film Awards, including Best Original Screenplay. The film received widespread critical acclaim, with major praise for Tautou's performance, the cinematography, production design, and writing. The film features an ensemble cast of supporting roles, including Mathieu Kassovitz, Rufus, Lorella Cravotta, Serge Merlin, Jamel Debbouze, Claire Maurier, Clotilde Mollet, Isabelle Nanty, Dominique Pinon, Artus de Penguern, Yolande Moreau, Urbain Cancelier, and Maurice Bénichou.Īmélie was theatrically released in France on 25 April 2001 by UGC-Fox Distribution and in Germany on 16 August 2001 by Prokino Filmverleih. It tells the story of a shy waitress, played by Audrey Tautou, who decides to change the lives of those around her for the better while dealing with her own isolation. Written by Jeunet with Guillaume Laurant, the film is a whimsical depiction of contemporary Parisian life, set in Montmartre. A girl in Renoir's 1881 painting Luncheon of the Boating Party provides a key plot pointĪmélie (also known as Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain French pronunciation: English: The Fabulous Destiny of Amélie Poulain) is a 2001 French-language romantic comedy film directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet. ![]() ![]() ![]() Some consequences are good, and some are bad.Īnd sometimes, what looks to be good or bad can turn out to be the opposite after further inspection.īefore enacting any move, the player should have in mind what is being gained and what is being lost, if anything. Sometimes they are slight and even non-existent, but very often, they are profound. The advanced player realizes that actions, such as moves, have consequences. But what if moving the six of diamonds atop of the seven of hearts might have led to more gains?Īnd what if by waiting, a future game state could have made even more productive use of the same seven? This seems like it should be a good move. This is one key reason why they lose most games.įor example, a player might move a six of hearts on top of a seven of hearts. Novices mostly perform moves with little regard for how each move might affect the game state. This way, after the deal, it's much more likely that the column can be emptied. Knowing which columns comes with experience.Ī most obvious example is probably when a column has all of its hidden cards turned.īefore the next deal, it's usually advantageous to leave such a column with the fewest number of changes in suits as possible, preferably none. The player should choose to leave the disorder (more suit changes) in columns where they are less likely to hinder a win. This is usually much easier to accomplish when at least one column is vacant. ![]() Many times in games, it's advantageous to leave a run disordered, meaning that it contains more suit changes than it has to.ĭisorder can often be shifted from one column to another by removing changes in suits from one column at the expense of adding them to one or more runs in other columns. This also has the advantage that turning hidden cards later in the game is likely to be easier.įor the 4-suit player who does not undo movies, this is an extremely important lesson to learn if they wish to maximize their win ratio. Very often, the better option is to add order to the game. However, when an experienced Spider Solitaire player is faced with a choice of, say, giving up an empty column to either turn a hidden card or to add more order to the game state, they will carefully examine the game state and choose the option that they feel is most likely to result in a win. Only when all the hidden cards have been flipped does their attention then shift to ordering. Inexperienced players tend to overlook the order of the game and concentrate almost solely on turning hidden cards. In a sense, it a measure of freedom to move cards about, and it is subjective. Thus, the concept of order provides a measuring stick. ![]() There is no exact number for the amount of order in a game state, it's more about adding or removing order. In short, more order means a better chance of winning the game. ![]() Thus, the more order contained in a game state, the easier it usually is to move cards between the columns and it's more likely that certain cards can be accessed when needed, which also means that it's more likely that a suit can be built. Many players find this technique extremely unintuitive and therefore never even consider it.Īdding order to a game state means both to combine runs in the game state and to reduce the number of suit changes within runs (or changes that bring the game state closer to completing suits) Before continuing, the player should take into account everything contained in the current game state, not just the number of hidden cards. The convention wisdom is to choose the column which contains the fewest number of hidden cards, thinking that the chances of soon regaining a clear column are maximized. There are many occasions in Spider Solitaire games where the player is presented with a choice of which column to turn a hidden card in.įor example, it might be possible to use a clear column to turn a hidden card in either the first column or the second column, but both cannot be guaranteed. ![]() ![]() ![]() Reddit's Rules of Order The entirety of the rules of Reddit still apply here.

There is a long line of complaints about the motors burning out early, but since there's nothing exotic about the motor it should be a fairly easy replacement if/when needed.Ĭonstruction is neither outrageously bad nor inspiringly good. The Q12126VP is definitely not one of Quincy's better quality compressors. This was the best upgrade I could find from an ear-shattering oilless Husky mobile. If my shop had the space, I would have gone with a larger non-mobile compressor. Just so you dont think im full of it I own 3 portable Emglos 1 hp to 3hp three Rol airs 1.5 hp and a 3hp with 2 stage pump a 8hp gas in the shop i have a 5hp sanborn (junk) a 5hp 2stage emglo plumped in to the sanborn 10hp IR and a 185 cfm gardner dever And the hart of it is it a cheap aluminum pump runing at aloud hot 1500rpm or a solid cast iron pump runing at a cool Quiet smoth 800rpm. Look for a name brand motor Baldor or Lesson 1725 rpm not a specialy cheap made motor that runs a goofy 3025 rpm or something like on IRs Look at the presure switch does it say Square D or china on it. When your looking at a compressor look at the compnents. And I think ther in that 800 price range. And all that was wrong was a bad valve spring 120 buck rebiud kit i think it will go anther 10,000Īnther compressor I have that I think would be great for you is a emglo 2 hp that you can switch from 120 19a to 220v 8a it has 2 cylinder pump and puts out 8 cfm. i just rebiult the pump on my 3 hp emglo last week its a v4 pump that puts out about 13 cfm I estamait that its got about 10,000 hours on it it just over seven years old and it runs all day every day. and iff its only puting out 4-5 cfm its probily a 1 hp 3 peak I Run alot off diferent compressors being a carpenter by day and jack of all buy night the best portable compressor I think are Emglo (Dewalt bought the Emglo name and make them in china or some were now ) the company is still going under the Jenny name these are buy far the quitest smothest simple and cheap to work on and they have real head unloaders bilt in for constant run. I agree with John stay away from IR like stated they been living off of a name. What do you guys suggest? One of these? Why? Have a different suggestion altogether? It is more expensive but as long as it's under about $800 tops it shouldn't matter to 'the boss' so that's not much of a concern of mine. Between these two machines and to my untrained eye the Quincy seems like it would be the better choice with it's larger tank and higher CFM rating. I understand that neither of these is of the 'good' lines from either IR or Quincy and are basically import machines though from what I understand the Quincy seems to be largely built in the USA (or at least assembled here). I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes to air compressors but these both seem like they would fit the bill.

In case you do not have the necessary equipment to unload the equipment do not worry.

It is near Interstate 15 and north of Ivanpah, California. Initially it was planned with 440 MW gross on 4,000 acres (1,600 ha) of land, but then downgraded by 12%. The Ivanpah system consists of three solar thermal power plants on 3,500 acres (1,400 ha) of public land near the California–Nevada border in the Southwestern United States. The bright spots of Ivanpah are clearly visible from above Las Vegas and further. In 2010, the project was scaled back from its original 440 MW design to avoid disturbing the habitat of the desert tortoise. The United States government provided a $1.6 billion loan guarantee and the plant is built on public land. The largest investor in the project was NRG Energy which contributed $300 million. The $2.2 billion facility was developed by BrightSource Energy and Bechtel. In 2014, it was the world's largest solar thermal power station. The facility formally opened on February 13, 2014. The first unit of the system was connected to the electrical grid in September 2013 for an initial synchronisation test. It deploys 173,500 heliostats, each with two mirrors focusing solar energy on boilers located on three 459 feet (140 m) tall solar power towers. The plant has a gross capacity of 392 megawatts (MW). It is located at the base of Clark Mountain in California, across the state line from Primm, Nevada. The Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System is a concentrated solar thermal plant in the Mojave Desert. Planned: 440 MW gross, Build: 392 MW gross, 377 MW net Macs can be very picky about the USB stick used for booting so if you continue to have problems booting a USB installer, then try using another brand of USB stick.Looking north towards Ivanpah Facility's eastern boiler tower from Interstate 15 I forget how the USB stick will appear on the Apple boot picker menu, but it will most likely be an orange icon and I believe it will be labeled as "Install macOS" or something similar. Now Option Boot the USB stick on the computer you want to install Mojave. Use the "BaseSystem.dmg" file as the source for Etcher. Then use Etcher to "burn" the "BaseSystem.dmg" file to the USB drive. Navigate the "Install macOS Data" folder to locate the "BaseSystem.dmg" file and copy it to your desktop.Ĭonnect your USB stick and erase it as GUID partition and MacOS Extended (Journaled) using Disk Utility. In the new Finder window you should be viewing the root of the drive and you should be able to see the folder containing the Mojave install data. To access the root of the drive, click the "Go" menu in the Finder and select "Go to Folder." and type "/" in the text field and click "Open". If the ~6GB portion of the Mojave installer gets stored on the root of the drive in a folder called something like "Install macOS Data" (I don't recall the exact name, but it should be easy to spot). Navigate to "Contents/SharedSupport" where you should find the "BaseSystem.dmg" file. If the full ~6GB Mojave installer gets downloaded to your "Applications" folder, then you can right-click on the "Install macOS Mojave" app within the Applications folder and select "Show package contents". This technique also works for High Sierra. The hardest part is locating the "BaseSystem.dmg" file. If you boot this USB drive it will act like booting into Recovery Mode. ![]() ![]() My alternate method is to "burn" the "BaseSystem.dmg" file (contained in the ~6GB portion of the Mojave installer download) to a USB drive. Tq □Įven with my alternate method you still must download the full Mojave installer since I extract a small file from the full ~6GB installer to use in my alternate method. Using the bootstable drive still need to install the mojave installer from apple store right?

Listen to In Touch Ministries daily radio broadcasts with Dr. His father, he said, didn’t hear anything after the word “resign.” Charles reacted harshly and pronounced his son an enemy. In later years, the younger Stanley would say he only wanted his father to offer to resign, giving the church a chance to choose to keep their beloved pastor. One of them was Andy Stanley, who was pastoring a rapidly growing satellite campus and seen as First Baptist’s heir apparent. A number of leaders in the church-which now had regular a weekly attendance of about 13,000-wanted Stanley to step down, at least temporarily. Anna said her husband had long made his priorities clear, and she wasn’t one of them. The Stanleys enjoy family beach trips and spending time outdoors.

Anna amended the suit a week later to ask for formal separation instead of divorce and then dropped the case. Stanley announced from the pulpit that the couple was not getting divorced, but was separated and working on their marriage. The congregation had never allowed a divorced man to serve in ministry, and Stanley had taught that divorced men were disqualified from ministry.

Yes, this means that all of us have the potential to be part of the emerging group of “ human angels“. The second group is those who were born without these qualities, but have acquired or are in the process of acquiring them through their own hard work and the diligent following of a spiritual path.This means they undergo a spiritual and physical transformation that awakens their “Christ” or “Crystal” consciousness and links them with the Crystal children as part of the evolutionary wave of change. Firstly, there are those who were born as Indigos and are now making the transition to Crystal.The Indigo and Crystal Adults are composed of two groups. They are a powerful force for love and peace on the planet. They function as a group consciousness rather than as individuals, and they live by the” Law of One” or Unity Consciousness. These are extremely powerful children, whose main purpose is to take us to the next level in our evolution, and reveal to us our inner power and divinity. The Crystal Children began to appear on the planet from about 2000, although some date them slightly earlier. Indigos continued to born up to about 2000, with increasing abilities and degrees of technological and creative sophistication. However, in the 1970s a major wave of Indigos was born, and so we have a whole generation of Indigos who are now in their late twenties and early thirties who are about to take their place as leaders in the world. After World War II, a significant number were born, and these are the Indigo adults of today. The early Indigos were pioneers and way-showers. The Indigo Children have been incarnating on the Earth for the last 100 years. They are here to show us the way, and so the information can be applied more generally to all of us as we make the transition to the next stage of our growth and evolution. We are all, in some way, becoming more like the Indigo and Crystal people. But we want to stress that the Indigo/Crystal phenomenon is the next step in our evolution as a human species. We will describe the main features and characteristics of these people. How do you know if you, or someone you know, is an Indigo or Crystal Child or Adult?

I don't know of any resources for exporting to fixed-page layout (FXL) EPUB other than the fairly amateur level ones you seem to have already found. EPUB export, to its own end or for Kindle, is a complex process with many steps that only begin with a layout in InDesign or any other app. It's not a matter of templates, although I suppose there might be a few out there.

But Miyazaki has said he didn't mean to be political, wanting simply to portray the story of someone who pursued his huge dream with talent and drive. One could also see the film as a pacifist statement - showing how a thing of beauty was turned into a killing machine. Some have asked why Miyazaki would focus on a man whose creation was ultimately used to kill so many. The film is based on Jiro Horikoshi, the engineer who designed the Zero fighter plane used in the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in World War II. In a dream, he encounters the famous Italian aeronautical engineer Giovanni Caproni, who tells him not to worry - it's even better to build planes than to fly them.Ĭaproni is not a fictional character - and neither is Jiro. He yearns to be a pilot, but is nearsighted. What IS beauty? Jiro, whom we first meet as a country boy in Japan, finds beauty in the design of an airplane. If this is indeed Miyazaki's swan song - he's announced his retirement, but not everyone believes it - then it's a worthy one, if perhaps not his most satisfying work, and certainly not his simplest. ![]() Miyazaki's latest film, "The Wind Rises," nominated for the animated feature Oscar, happens to take that concept of the subjectivity of beauty and address it in a way that's touching, troubling, and above all, totally unique. A revered master of animation, the Oscar-winning director/writer makes something as simple as a hazy sky so ravishing, it can take your breath away. They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but few could justifiably question the beauty of a Hayao Miyazaki film. Review: Miyazaki explores beauty, ambition, dreams ![]() |
