![]() Despite failing eyesight, Monet continued to paint almost until his death in 1926. The many large studies for the Orangerie murals, as well as other unprecedented and unique works painted in the water garden between 19, were almost unknown until the 1950s but are now distributed throughout the major private collections and museums of the world. These were described in 1952 by the painter André Masson as "the Sistine Chapel of Impressionism." This crowning achievement of Monet's long, probing study of nature-his striving to render his impressions, as he said, "in the face of the most fugitive effects"-was not dedicated until after his death. This concept of embracing spatiality, new to the history of painting and only implicit in the first water-lily paintings, was expanded by 1925 into a cycle of huge murals to be installed in Paris in two 80-foot oval rooms in the Orangerie of the Tuileries. The first canvases of lilies, water, and the Japanese bridge were only about one yard square, but their unprecedented open composition, with the large blossoms and pads suspended as if in space, and the azure water in which clouds were reflected, implied an encompassing environment beyond the frame. By 1900 this unique product of Monet's imagination (for his Impressionism had become more subjective) was in itself a major work of environmental art-an exotic lotus land within which he was to meditate and paint for more than 20 years. Soon weeping willows, iris, and bamboo grew around a free-form pool, clusters of lily pads and blossoms floated on the quiet water, and a Japanese bridge closed the composition at one end. By diverting this stream, he began to construct a water-lily garden. In 1890 Monet had bought a strip of marshland across the road from his house and flower garden, through which flowed a tributary of the Epte.

![]() 10,1 (marble production/space) divided with 7,2 (silks production/space) is: 1,4. Prod.: 262 silk/3h, which cost 5520 coins and 552 tools.īut. Silk (lvl 9, 279% production boost from relics) So production/space for marble is: 118/11,67= ca 10,1 TotalSpace(TS) required: 6+0,64+3,66+1,36= 11,67 squares (note, im not displaying the whole numbers with all decimals here since they would take up too much space, but I do use all decimals in the calculations.) ProductionCostSpace(PCS): 62/90,85= 0,68, and we double that to account for the coins. Production: 118 marble/3h, which cost 620 coins and 62 tools. Marble (lvl8, 279% production boost from relics) So the production per square is then: 2484/27,34=90,85 prod(3h)/square.įinally after explaining all that we will get to compare the different manufactories! I want to look at the productions per 3 hours since we will compare it with the goods manufactories later. The workshop in this example produces 828 tools/h making it 2484 tools/3h. In other words a whopping 27,34 squares is needed to maintain a lvl 15 workshop (with battle monuments and lvl 15 residences).īut we’re not done yet with workshops, we need to calculate the space needed to produce the tools. The size for a lvl 15 workshop is 12 squares, + culturespace which is 169/57,5=2,94, +populationspace which is 471/37,98=27,34. In my example I will be using a lvl 15 workshop with 100% culture bonus producing only bread. Now, toolspace is going to be very individual, it depends on what kind of goods you are making in the workshop, your culture bonus and the level on the workshop. I was not sure how to calculate the space needed to produce the coins since you get it from helping your neighbors as well as residences… so I decided to make it the same as the space needed for tools. Last is the space needed to produce the tools and coins needed for the goods. ![]() giving it 560/12=46,67 pop/square, but that’s not accounting the culture space it takes up, since it takes up 158 culture we have to add this as well. A lvl 15 residence takes up 12 squares and gives 560 pop. Population is gained from residences and I’ll be using lvl 15 residences in this post, which is the highest level pre dwarven buildings. So culture space varies depending on what kind of culture buildings you’re using, in these calculations I’ll be using the Battle Monument that gives 690/12=57,5 culture/square. This means a building requiring for example 400 culture takes up 4 squares culture space. Let’s say there was a culture building giving 800 culture and taking up 8 squares, then it would give 80 culture/square. Let’s start by looking at culture, depending of what culture buildings you’re going to have more or less effective culture space. A lvl 8 MM takes up 2x3=6 squares right? Yes, but there's more to it than that, it needs culture, which takes up space, population which also takes up space and the tools that you use to produce the resources comes from workshops who also takes up space. It is probably not the whole truth, but I think it's close to it. How much space these manufactories takes up in your village. So how do we compare these goods? The answer is: space. All my manufactories are maxed at the advanced level, which for Marble Manufactories (MM) is lvl 8, for Silk manufactories (SM) lvl 9 and last but not least Gem Manufactories (GM) lvl 8. I made sure to compare their values when they are on the same boost-% which for me is 279%. ![]() My production boosts are: Marble, Silk and Gems. I'm going to tackle this problem from the point in the game where I'm currently in, which is the early midgame with the human race. It’s going to be quite a long post and plenty of spelling errors but try to bear with me! Could really 100 gems be as valuable as 1600 marble? There are of course many factors that set the value of these materials, and I have done my best to look at some of them. Right now 1 elixir/magic dust/gem is valuated as 4 silk/crystal/scrolls and 16 marble/planks/steel. I've been thinking about this question for a while now and finally I decided to do some calculating to see how accurate these ratios are. ![]() ![]() For example, if you’re playing with Spades and Hearts and have a 6 of Hearts, 5 of Hearts, and a 4 Hearts, you can move that whole set on top of a 7 of Hearts or a 7 of Spades. If you want to move an entire sequence or column of cards, the sequence or column must be of the same suit, and you can place it on a card that is 1 rank higher but of either suit. Move columns of cards if they are the same suit.For example, if you’re playing with Clubs and Diamonds, a 6 of Clubs can be placed on top of a 7 of Clubs or a 7 of whatever the second suit is (Diamonds, Hearts, or Spades). To arrange individual cards, you just move them on top of a card that is 1 rank higher-even if it’s not the same suit. Move individual cards by rank, regardless of suit.When you deal from the stock pile, you will be dealt 1 face-up card on each column, overlapping the cards already present. You begin with only 10 face-up cards, but you can free face-down cards by removing a face-up card from on top of it. The only cards you can move are the face-up cards in the columns of the tableau. These rules help you understand how to play Spider Solitaire (2 Suits): The waste pile: Unlike Solitaire, you don’t use a waste pile because the stockpile cards are dealt directly onto columns in the tableau.Instead, you create the entire sequence in the tableau and then transfer it to a foundation pile when it is complete. Additionally, you don’t build on those spaces during the game. The Foundation piles: Like classic Solitaire, you leave room at the top for foundation piles, but you need 8 spaces instead of 4.If the stock pile runs out and you can’t make any more moves, you have lost the game. When you are stuck and can’t make any more moves, you deal 1 card face-up to each column from the stock pile until the stock pile runs out. The stock pile: The remaining 50 cards are placed at the top left of your space, face-down, for the stock pile.You’ll arrange cards in the tableau in descending order instead of building on active foundation piles. All cards are face-down except the last card of each column, which is face-up. You deal out 54 cards from left to right in 10 columns, with 6 cards in the first 4 columns and 5 cards in the last 6 columns. The tableau: Like any Solitaire game, the tableau is the main area for play.Using two decks of two different suits, you arrange your game space into three key parts: ![]() These sequences get transferred to the 8 separate foundation piles. ObjectiveĬlear all the cards by building sequences within the tableau, separated by suit and arranged in descending order from King (high) to Ace (low). Well-suited for intermediate players, Spider Solitaire (2 Suits) uses 104 cards-1 deck of Hearts and 1 deck of Spades. If you enjoy Spider Solitaire but want more of a challenge, you’re ready for Spider Solitaire (2 Suits). ![]() ![]() ![]() Remember, the number outside of parenthesis applies to all the elements in it. Next, we write the ions next to each other and add the correct subscripts:Īnd now, we multiply the molar mass of each element by its subscript. You need to know the common polyatomic ions from where we find that sulfate is the SO 4 2- ion. M (PCl 5) = 30.1 + 5 x 35.5 = 207.6 g/molĪnother example: what is the molar mass of aluminum sulfate?įirst, we know that the aluminum ion has a 3+ charge. To calculate the molar mass of PCl 5, we multiply the molar mass of each element by its subscript: Go over naming covalent compounds to refresh some of the concepts here. ![]() The formula of phosphorous pentachloride is PCl5. If the formula of the molecule is not given, you will need to first determine it.įor example, determine the molar mass of phosphorous pentachloride. To calculate the molar mass of a molecule, we add the molar mass of each constituent atom by the corresponding subscript.įor example, the molar mass of water would be: Usually, we round off the molar mass to 1 or 2 decimal places, so for P, we’d use 123.9 or 123.90 for its molar mass. For example, to find the molar of P 4, we multiply 30.974 g/mol by 4: If there is a subscript in the symbol, then you need to multiply the molar mass by that number. And we can do this for all the elements in the periodic table. For potassium then, it is 39.098 g/mol which means one mole of potassium atoms weighs 39.098 g. What’s important for today’s topic is that numerically, the molar mass is equal to the average atomic mass of the given atom, so we can look it up in the periodic table. The smaller one is the atomic number which shows the number of protons, and the larger one is the average atomic mass: So, how do we find the molar mass in the periodic table?įor example, there are two numbers given for potassium in the periodic table: 19 and 39.098. To calculate the molar mass of an atom or a molecule, we are always going to need a periodic table. ![]() The mass of one mole of atoms/molecules/ions is called its molar mass ( M) expressed in g/mol. ![]() ![]() ![]() Also, if you are required to file a federal tax return, you may have to pay California state income tax.

![]() ![]() It does not have separate firmware requiring a JTAG Altera Byte Blaster to flash. Updates to the OS firmware are as simple as copying a new OS file to a subdirectory on your SD card. He used an Altera Cyclone II FPGA to drive the board and its functions, and there is still room for more features. Krikzz released the Mega Everdrive last year to address several of these issues. Users would be left out of new features and compatibility fixes unless they sent their cart to someone who had the hardware to reprogram it. Finally, to flash a firmware update required special JTAG hardware. It would take a very long time to write to the chip so many times that the chip would fail. However, that is the minimum number of write cycles for a modern flash chip, so the chip may be able to handle many, many more writes. Additionally, the flash chip is only good for a limited number of writes, so the 10,000th time you write a game, it could permanently fail. This can take close to a minute for larger games. The use of flash memory to store a game during gameplay meant that when you want to play a new game, the flash chip must be erased and reprogrammed.

Unlike the earlier device, save games are stored on the SD card, not on real battery backed S-RAM. This improved on the earlier MD Pro by using SD cards to load the games. One of his first products was the Everdrive MD. Krikzz has released a range of flash carts. It also supports games that have battery-backed save ram (S-RAM).

The first modern device that allowed multiple saves on a flash cart for the Sega Genesis was the ToToTek MD Pro. (The SD2SNES has the capacity to emulate some of that hardware). The NES PowerPak will play virtually any licensed or unlicensed non-Japanese game, and there are only two dozen games that the SNES PowerPak will not play due to the extra hardware contained in certain carts.

She then got on the bed, sat on my butt and began rubbing my back – which actually felt really good. “Now just relax” she said as she kicked-off her shoes next to the bed. I heard Karol walk in and walk over to me and set a pile of stuff at the foot of the bed.

But it really should be judged on its own merits, not berated simply for not being another game. Eve is unlike most other MMOs in a great many respects, and like any game won't be for everyone. The way training scales, you won't be at a huge disadvantage for that long. Name a game where you can start out in PvP with the same gear and skills as everyone else. Yes, you are at a disadvantage early on in PvP. What you turn over to anyone is by deliberate actions only, again, like any other MMO. Yes, there are scammers, but nobody can just steal anything from your inventory. If you just want to shoot, loot, and sell, it's no different than any other game. Yes, the game economy is complex enough that some people actually use spreadsheets. The heightened challenge that other players provide over some AI is nice, because it makes it so much sweeter when you beat a gatecamp or a mining gank. If you get killed, you should always have many other ships to fly somewhere safe, even if you're nowhere near being good at PvP. "Losing six months of work" is just nonsense. Yes, if you stuff everything you have into a ship all at once and fly out into the void, you can lose it all. The vast majority of Eve players are mature and even helpful. This complaint is not about the game, but about a small subset of gamers found in all multiplayer games.
