Not all gamers on the planet today like the small screen of smartphones. The acquisition by King Digital can help Battle Nations become popular with Facebook gamers. King Digital's products are still among the most popular games on Facebook's (FB) app portal. The cross-platform feature of Battle Nations is in line with King Digital's strong presence among desktop PC users. If we include the global sales from iOS and Android gamers, we can guesstimate (using 3x factor) Battle Nations' total daily sales at around $30,000.īattle Nations is also available for Mac and Steam. iPhone users.īattle of Nations is also a hit among Android device users with more than 500,000 downloads. According to ThinkGaming, Battle Nations is already raking in more than $10,000 in average daily sales from U.S. The purchase price of $45 million is likely due to the decent revenue stream of Battle Nations. Unlike Zynga (ZNGA) which is developing its two strategy games, King is using some of its cash hoard to buy promising studios with proven moneymaking game titles. Like NonStop Games, King Digital bought Z2Live for its strategy-centric games, MetalStorm Online and Battle Nations. Another $105 million bonus payment is tied to the future performance of Z2Live's games. King paid $45 million cash initially to acquire Z2Live and its games. In spite of the massive success of its match-3 puzzle game Candy Crush Soda Saga, the diversification continues with King's recent $150 million purchase of Seattle-based Z2Live. KING acquired an iOS strategy game called Heroes of Honor: War of Kings from NonStop Games. As always, the user who does not pay money will be at a clear disadvantage compared to the one who does pay, adding to the fun of the game.I discussed last year that King Digital ( BATS: KING) is expanding outside its match-3 games comfort zone with its acquisition of NonStop Games. The downside of Battle Nations is that it offers the NanoPods in exchange for real money and these can be used to acquire buildings and more powerful units or accelerate construction. You have to be clever at this point and divide the work among all the soldiers that are posted. If it is the only unit left standing, we will lose many turns and it is more than likely that we will also lose the battle. Some units offer a specific number of shots and if we exceed it, it will take quite a few rounds to replenish. ![]() When the battle begins, each player has a turn to roll and try to deal as much damage as possible. We choose the units that we want them to fight, we place them in the spaces that we think are most appropriate and the opposite does the same with its own. It must be emphasized that battles take place in turns. There is also the possibility of fighting with other people online to get battle points that will give us access to prizes that are impossible to get otherwise. ![]() Our mission is to eliminate them using all available army units at that time. Since Battle Nations is a battle game, from time to time we will receive visits from invaders and animals. There is a very large variety of buildings with different utilities that, in addition, can be improved to be more efficient.Īs always, available resources will put us on the brakes more than we would like, making progress somewhat desperate at times when we already have a fairly high level. Our territory will have to be built up to get a population and for it to get resources or pay taxes. Once we are at work, we will see that Battle Nations is an outright strategy game. This part is a bit heavy but luckily, can be skipped by pressing the forward button in the lower right corner. Combining the strategy genre and multiplayer mode, this title manages to hook the user from the first second.Īfter creating our player profile, Battle Nations will put us in a situation with various animations and conversations between the characters that will teach us all the ins and outs of the game. Battle Nations is one of the most popular games on the App Store.

Lilly Walters describes the one hand typing method and types as fast as 85 wpm with her right hand.Here are a few video demos of actual users, using one-hand typing on QWERTY keyboard: For a right-hand typist, red keys are index finger, green middle, yellow ring, and blue pinkie finger. Finger assignments when typing one-handed on a QWERTY keyboard. ![]() One key to success with this approach is to learn a method of one-hand touch-typing, placing fingers on home keys FGHJ and positioning the keyboard toward the typing-hand side. This is the most straightforward option, and gives the flexibility of using any computer with a QWERTY keyboard. If you are using a Mac or Windows computer, consider using the regular QWERTY keyboard that came with your computer. The purpose is to provide useful information to help you narrow down the choices to determine products that may meet your specific needs. And the goal is not to recommend one option over another.

![]() To conduct this work, GAO reviewed relevant NASA policies, analyzed NASA and contractor data, and interviewed NASA and contractor officials. This, GAO's ninth related report, assesses (1) the extent to which technical issues and other challenges affected progress against cost and schedule commitments since 2019 and (2) how the JWST project managed known risks to completing its mission. 112-284 included a provision for GAO to assess the project annually and report on its progress. Now estimated to cost $9.7 billion, the project's costs have nearly doubled and its launch date has been delayed by over 7 years since its cost and schedule baseline was established in 2009.Ĭonference Report No. Most of the telescopeits gold-plated mirrors and scientific instrumentshad been completed and. Problems discovered during integration and testing caused multiple delays that led NASA to replan the project in June 2018. By the start of this year, Webb had a price tag of 8.8 billion and a launch date of spring 2019. It is the scientific successor to the Hubble Space Telescope and is intended to help scientists better understand how galaxies and the universe have evolved and study planets in other solar systems. JWST, a large, deployable telescope, is one of NASA's most complex projects and top priorities. For example, the team developed 207 contingency plans to address a variety of issues that may be faced during observatory launch, commissioning, and operation. The JWST project established a commissioning organization in part to mitigate risks. Some of these risks could result in loss of mission, but NASA assessed that they are unlikely to occur. Of the 39 risks, NASA will continue to manage 26 after launch, including those related to sunshield deployment and the functionality of the observatory's sensitive, near-infrared camera. The project reduced the number of known mission risks, but expects to continue managing risk after launch to complete mission objectives. ![]() Including the launch delay risk, the project is managing 39 risks-11 fewer than when GAO reported in January 2020. ![]() Key Activities Remaining, and Planned vs. Further, the project continues to address technical problems that could affect the project's ability to meet cost commitments if the contractor workforce is needed longer than planned. The project is also completing redesigns for key parts of the observatory, including actuators, which help unfurl the sunshield. As a result, the project has less schedule reserve than planned to complete remaining activities. The project has also used schedule reserves-extra time set aside to accommodate unforeseen risks or delays-faster than expected to address issues such as repairing and strengthening the sunshield. Of that amount, 8. For example, in March 2021, NASA officials reported that launch vehicle anomalies that the project's international partners need to resolve will likely lead to a further delay to the launch date. The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is expected to cost NASA 9.7 billion over 24 years. Since 2019, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) project, one of the agency's most complex science missions, has made considerable progress toward launch-now planned for October 2021-by resolving technical issues, but some schedule and cost challenges remain. Where $T$ is the energy given to the electron by the photon, which is essentially $h (\nu - \nu_0)$. Now we come to energy conservation: The total energy of the electron is given by $$p c \cos \phi = h \nu_0 + P c - h \nu \cos \theta$$ $$p c \sin \phi = h \nu \sin \theta$$ Where $\nu$ is the frequency of the electron after scattering, $p$ is the momentum of the electron after scattering, and $\phi$ is the electron scattering angle. ![]() Then momentum conservation gives, for the $x$- and $y$- axes respectively $-$ Suppose the photon and the electron are both moving initially along the $x$-axis. In proving this, I started in the same way as in the derivation for "stationary electron" - conservation of momentum and energy along each axis. $$\Delta \lambda = 2 \lambda_0 \frac$ is the initial energy of the electron. The book tells us that this shift is given by ![]() In a problem from Bransden and Joachain's Quantum Mechanics, it is asked to calculate the Compton wavelength shift, but the electron is now moving, with a momentum $P$, in the same direction as the approaching photon. ![]() Some of the exterior appointments can be retracted before diving to avoid unwanted effects.Īs per the specs now available, the yacht can dive to as much as 200 meters (656 feet), but things would probably be a lot more relaxed at around 150 meters (492 feet). In boat mode, the Nautilus can travel, thanks to its diesel-electric powertrain, at speeds of 10 mph (16 kph). Upstairs there are also other interesting things to be found, including a freshwater pool and a dining table. A fully equipped gym is also included in the plans.Ī trip out on the Nautilus will start, of course, on the surface, and when configured this way the yacht offers a sundeck with a bar and jacuzzi. ![]() We’re dealing with a total interior space of 50 square meters (538 square feet), surrounded by four circular windows, each with a diameter of close to four meters (13 feet).Īside from the rooms themselves, the Nautilus will have a mezzanine observation lounge, a central space called the Saloon, and two more lounges on the main and fore decks. We’ve also learned a few more details about what the guts of this boat are all about. The images U-Boat released this week show a potential such layout and a very tasteful one at that. ![]() The Nautilus will be a made-for-order affair, meaning each customer will be able to customize the interior any way they see fit. There was also talk of a galley to make food for underwater meals. We’ve known for a while now the design envisioned by U-Boat and its partner, Officina Armare, called for the interior to be spaced out in a master bedroom, four staterooms for quests, and enough room to sleep a crew of six as well. But now, after this week, the company unveiled images of the ship’s interior, call us simply stunned. It’s a project born in the heads of a crew called U-Boat Worx and meant to be a surface vessel and a submarine, at the same time, depending on the owner’s needs.Ī few months ago U-Boat Worx gave us a glimpse of the Nautilus’ exterior, and we already called ourselves impressed. The Nautilus yacht submarine is something we first learned about at the end of September 2022. ![]() Granulated sugar works great as long as you add it at the beginning of mixing, that way there’s enough time for the granules to dissolve. Powdered sugar produces lightly more stabilized whipped cream but the one thing I don’t like is the added cornstarch in powdered sugar, if you aren’t using much you can’t really taste it but anything over a couple of tablespoons and it will become more noticeable (dip your finger in powdered sugar and taste it then dip it in granulated sugar and taste it, you’ll see what I mean). Granulated Sugar or Powdered Sugar to Sweeten? The stand mixer whisk attachment doesn’t quite reach to the bottom of the bowl so you’re left with some cream that isn’t whipped in as well, if you go that route stop once or twice and fold mixture from bottom and sides in. I prefer the electric hand mixer and here’s why: you get more control and it’s faster than mixing by hand. Basically just be sure it lists “heavy” on the label (at least here in the U.S. But “heavy whipping cream” is different than just “whipping cream” and that works great here too. If it is listed as just “whipping cream” that doesn’t have as much fat as heavy cream and therefor doesn’t whip up or hold up the same. If you are using it for piping it should just start to loose that wet sheen (If you are using it to mix into a pie filling or something that needs a lot of structure I actually will mix it even a little further for a nice sturdy base).Ĭan I Use Whipping Cream Instead of Heavy Cream? Keep mixing until you get those nice stiff peaks.Here below you’ll get to medium peaks which will work okay for dolloping over desserts, it droops and doesn’t hold it’s form super well. Increase to high speed and continue to mix.Whip mixture on medium-low speed until thickened slightly, about 1 minute.Pour cream into chilled bowl, add sugar and vanilla if using.Chill a mixing bowl and beater blades of a hand mixer in the freezer for 5 minutes or the fridge for 15 minutes.Ingredients and Equipment Needed for Whipped Cream Blueberry Trifles (with cream cheese added!).Ten Recipes to Use Homemade Whipped Cream: I’ve listed a handful of ways to use it but trust me this list could go on and on. Whipped cream is a super versatile topping that is the perfect finishing touch to countless desserts. Then also shown it’s served with angel food cake and fresh fruit (half the strawberries I like to puree in a food processor for a sauce). Peaches are a great option too when in season). One of my favorite ways is simply pairing it with lightly sweetened fresh fruit (mangos, strawberries and raspberries are what is pictured below. It’s super easy to make and hard to mess up if you follow a few simple steps as listed in the recipe. Many of you have likely already been going this route so feel free to just scroll on down for different recipes you can use it in. It’s worlds better then frozen whipped topping, once you go this route you’ll never look back! My mom never bought frozen whipped topping and was a firm believer in homemade whipped cream so that’s what was always served and now that’s what I always serve too. I’ve been making it as long as I can remember, you know back when you had to stand on a barstool to reach the counter and bowl? I’ve probably made whipped cream 7,902 times or something like that, it’s honestly one of my favorite foods. Keep reading to see some of my favorite ways to use it!

Removing your icon complete means dragging it away from the dock so that it is no longer near the dock. Hide Search How to keep Desktop Icons from moving when undocking Windows 10 The default mode of Desktop is to auto-arrange icons. If the icons do not "make room", that is, they stay as close together when you drag your icon over them, then, as Zeesah.A phrased, you need to remove your icon completely from the dock and then try to place it, the icons should then make room for your icon. Make sure you don't have Auto Arrange checked. When moving an icon works - you will see the other icons "make room" for the icon you are moving - they move aside to the left and right leaving a gap - that is where you can drop your icon. Right-click on the empty spot on your desktop and select Properties Click the Desktop tab Click the Customize Desktop button Click the Web tab Check the 'Lock desktop items' box Click on OK all the way back I just did this and it appeared to work. If you did not already know, you can click and hold an icon with one finger, then move it with another finger, probably using both hands. I will assume you know how to drag and drop icons. This is always fixed by completely removing the icon from the dock. The more times I do this, the more "broken" it becomes - meaning the more icons stop moving out of its way. I have been able to "break" the ability to move icons by dropping an icon directly on top of another one. Here is what I think is the definitive solution, and it contains some of the explanations above, my credit to them. You can move your Dell Dock icons by simply clicking on an icon and dragging it to the desired position on the dock, like the image below. ![]() I have personally seen it work and not work those that claim "it does work" are correct to a degree, however, there are times when it does not work. You can complete the purchase in the browser window itself if you don’t have the Steam app downloaded on your Windows PC.There are a lot of "that doesn't work". First, log into your Steam account and buy MyDockFinder ( $3.99). I am new to using a laptop with a second monitor. I am running Windows 10 version 1607 build 14393.1884 I have seen other posts about this but nothing recent. Right click on the desktop, View, uncheck the option ''Automatically Arrange Icons'' Let's check the system image: -Right click on start, run PowerShell (admin) or Command Prompt (admin) Copy and paste the following command: DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth and press Enter. I have a Dell laptop and a Dell external monitor. It’s a paid app, but worth every penny if you really want a macOS theme on Windows. Desktop icons keep rearranging after dock/undock. A 'right-click' - or +control-click with single-button mouse+ does work fine to expose the app whose icon is in Dock, in a position to then create an Alias for items not in that dock, once you are creating aliases in general, I just stay in the apps folder & handle all of my aliases at one time. So if you are looking for an easy-to-use app to make Windows look like Mac with minimal user customization, go ahead and download the MyDockFinder app. Further, there is the Mac Menu bar, Launchpad, Status bar, etc. You also hear the satisfying macOS crumpled paper sound when you empty files from the Trash. Even the dock magnifying animation works well on Windows. With slick macOS-like animations, apps open and minimize in true Mac fashion. It not only makes Windows look like macOS but behave like one too. MyDockFinder is one of the best apps that emulate the macOS shell in Windows 11 or 10. ![]() I have gone through the multiple process to try to save the configuration (uncheck auto arrange, aling to grid, etc.). Make Windows Look Like Mac With MyDockFinder (Paid) The only way it seems possible to save the icon configuration is to shut down the computer and re-start when docking. 1 Does anyone know if there's a way to lock my desktop icons (so my curious kids don't mistakenly - or not so mistakenly - move stuff around or into trash).
![]() ![]() This indicates that the codeĬontained within the loop will always be executed at least once, even if the initial condition is false. Java While Loop The while loop loops through a block of code as long as a specified condition evaluates to true. The difference is that the do. While loop in Java is that the condition is evaluated at the end of the loop rather than the beginning. If the number of iteration is not fixed, then you can use the while loop. The only difference between a do-while loop and a The Java while loop is used to iterate a part of the program again and again. Java's do-while loop is a type of loop that repeatedly runs a block of code up until a predetermined condition is satisfied. The difference between a do-while loop and a while loop is that the do-while loop executes the body first before evaluating the boolean condition, whereas the. Finally, we'll talk about someĮxamples of do-while loops. The do-while loop will be thoroughly explained in this article, along with its syntax and guidelines for using it correctly in Java programs. The loop consists of the keyword while followed by an expression and curly braces. So the first iteration of your while loop is working fine. When you call nextInt and nextDouble it will skip any preceding whitespace, however it will not consume any whitespace after. When you call nextLine it will read a whole line, until it encounters or the end of the file. Or, write a while loop condition that always evaluates to true, something like 11. 1 Answer Sorted by: 1 The issue is related to whitespace. Some of these methods are: Write boolean value true in place of while loop condition. Java program to print numbers - In this chapter of our java programs tutorial, our task is to print numbers from 1 to 20 using java for loops, while loop. It repeats a statement or a block of statements while its controlling Boolean-expression is true. To make the condition always true, there are many ways. The while loop is Java's most fundamental loop statement. Used construct that offers a flexible and effective mechanism for iterative programming among the various types of loops available in Java. To make a Java While Loop run indefinitely, the while condition has to be true forever.

This small but powerful collection of films showcase Jonze at his very best, and validate him wholly as a feature film director. Despite having worldwide acclaim, Spike Jonze has only ever directed four feature films: Being John Malkovich, Adaptation, Where The Wild Things Areand Her. Feature FilmsĪfter his initial success with his music videos and short films, Jonze entered the world of feature film making. Praise You won three awards at the 1999 MTV Music Video Awards: Best Breakthrough, Best Direction and Best Choreography – cementing Spike Jonze as one of the greatest assets to the music industry. The video itself reportedly cost only $800 to make, with the majority of the money spent on food for the cast and crew. The video is filmed guerrilla style outside of a cinema, where Koufey’s fictional dance group (The Torrance Community Dance Troupe) perform choreography to the song, to the bemusement of real life onlookers. In 1999, Jonze wrote and directed the video for Fat Boy Slim’s ‘Praise You‘ – which featured Jonze as Richard Koufey, a contemporary dance instructor. Spike Jonze‘s video for Weezer’s ‘Buddy Holly’ – source: Geffen Records (1994)įollowing the success of Weezer’s video, Jonze has since worked on a vast number of memorable music videos Beastie Boy’s ‘ Sabotage‘, Björk’s ‘It’s Oh So Quiet’‘and Daft Punk’s ‘Da Funk‘ to name a few. With clever nods to the series, including a ‘to be continued’ halfway through, Buddy Holly exhibits that self-reflective, post-modern style that we can see in Jonze’s work today. A fresh take on a video of rock music genre, ‘Buddy Holly’ sees the band perform in a Happy Daysset, complete with the Fonz and the rest of the gang. Jonze was recognized for his work on short extreme sport videos and consequently approached to direct a video for American rock band Weezer for the song ‘Buddy Holly’. The heightened style and fast paced editing led Video Days to be regarded as one of the most influential skate videos ever made. Due to his interest and passion for sports, he went on to shoot several skateboarding documentary videos – most notably Video Days(1991). Spike Jonze (born: Adam Spiegal) began his career as a photographer for various BMX/Skateboarding magazines (including becoming one third of the editing team behind the creation of Dirt Magazine). His films are frequently described as ‘pop cinema’ or fall into the category of ‘ post-modern cinema‘ owing to their quirky nature, and subversion of conventional cinema techniques in terms of narrative. Jonze made his mark in music videos but even once he had attained the sought after feature film, he continued to write, direct and produce short films, music videos, documentaries and incredibly intelligent adverts. The traditional route for a writer/director generally begins in shorts or adverts, and ends in features – the pinnacle of the film-making world. One of the most interesting aspects to Spike Jonze’s career is his flexibility to bounce between different creative mediums. His creativity spans through the genres and is seemingly timeless. He has been nominated at the MTV Music Video Awards, for Oscars and Golden Globes. Strange and sensitive, Jonze’s work is always in touch with humanity – but his works have little else in common other than that. Jonze is a multi-talented, multi-faceted filmmaker whose productions range from commercials to documentaries, from music videos to feature films. Absurd, surreal, unique and diverse are just some of the few one could attach to his films. These are just some of the labels one could attribute to Spike Jonze.
