The Orleanists are for the most part supporters of a moderate-to-liberal constitutional monarchy, and it is the faction that starts in control of France in 1836. Orleanists represent the supporters of the Orléans cadet branch of the House of Bourbon, who came to power in France after the 1830 July Revolution. To model this in game we have replaced the Royalist ideology with three new France-specific ideologies: Advancing the bar as much as possible will allow for the latter outcome, whilst reducing it to zero will lead to the former, as was historical. A player controlling a reactionary France may wish to repress and sabotage the Commune as much as possible, in order to see through a successful occupation of Paris, whilst a player who wishes to side with the Commune may embolden it as much as possible, so that the National Guard may march on Versailles and seize power with a minimum of bloodshed. Whilst the Paris Commune exists, the player will be able to influence both the workings of the Commune and the responses of the Versailles government, molding the crisis soon to come as they wish. Once Socialism and Anarchism have been researched, if sufficiently beaten and destabilised, a revolution in France will unleash a tidal wave of proletarian anger in the city of Paris, leading to a major crisis that will threaten the future of the French nation. The Voice of the People immersion pack will allow for a France player to experience a formative moment in the history of the socialist movement - the Paris Commune. It includes the Paris Commune, a complex formative event which ties into the reworked revolutions in 1.3, a reworked Belle Époque journal entry containing nearly five times as much flavour as before, and the Pébrine Epidemic, a minor crisis for Europe which requires the use of several interlocking game systems to resolve. Much of what I will cover is the result of us experimenting with more mechanically complex content to create scenarios that both play smoothly and provide a truly unique experience. The new immersion pack primarily focuses on France, but also contains content which can apply to other countries or spread to affect other nations. This is Victoria, also known as Pacifica, and today I will be covering a selection of new content included in 1.3 and Voice of the People. With these additions we’ve removed Swiss culture and given Switzerland both the Alemannic and Franco-Provencal primary cultures. The Alemannic culture has homelands in East Switzerland, Baden, and Wurttemberg. Franco-Provencal (in more modern times known as Arpitan) has homelands in Rhone, Savoy, and West Switzerland, and is the primary culture of the new releasable nation of Savoy. And since we’re on the topic of setup changes, I’ll also note that we’ve added 2 new cultures to the region. Here you have a further look at the changes we’ve made to State Regions in France, but you’ll also note that in order to achieve a truly aesthetic France we’ve split up the North Rhine so that the border matches the river. Should France succeed in achieving these “natural borders”, the map of the region will look something like this. ![]() ![]() ![]() This is important, because mo/mo twins (those who share both a placenta and amniotic sac) will require more monitoring to ensure there’s no cord entanglement or compression.ĭichorionic twins have their own separate placentas. If the twins are monochorionic, the sonographer will also check about the amnionicity. selective intrauterine growth restriction.Twins who share a placenta are called monochorionic twins and are always identical. If twins are visible at your 12-week ultrasound, the sonographer will perform a chorionicity scan to determine if the twins share a placenta. If you have a more complicated pregnancy, your doctor may recommend more ultrasounds. In a standard pregnancy, this includes the 12-week ultrasound and the 20-week anatomy scan. ![]() However, the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends sticking only to those ultrasounds that are medically required. There’s no current research to indicate that ultrasounds are harmful to a developing baby. Ultrasounds rely on soundwaves and don’t use radiation like X-rays. It shouldn’t hurt - but depending on how long you’ve been holding your pee or asked to stay in certain positions, you may need to request a minute to shift around and get comfortable again! The exam should take about 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the position of your baby. They may also take a short recording of your baby’s heartbeat. Then, they’ll use a wand on this area to project a picture of your organs onto a screen. ![]() You’ll lie back on the exam table, and an ultrasound technician will apply a clear gel across your lower belly. (In occasional cases, an internal - known as transvaginal - scan may be necessary if the external scan can’t produce a clear image.) The 12-week ultrasound is usually an external scan. This is a picture of identical twins, who have developed from the same fertilized egg, and are now seen within the two yolk sacs (white circles) inside the one gestational sac (black area).What should you expect at your appointment? The embryos will have already developed the fetal poles, which are the beginnings of the babies’ cardiac systems. The white rings inside the gestational sacs are the yolk sacs. Here, the mother is expecting non-identical twins, as can be seen from the two separate gestational sacs (black areas). This yolk sac is providing nutrients to the embryo, but the embryo is too small to show up at this stage. In this transvaginal five week ultrasound image, you can see the gestational sac as the black area on the screen, together with the yolk sac, the small white disc on the left-hand side of the gestational sac. However, very occasionally, intra- and extrauterine pregnancies occur simultaneously, and, as with any ectopic pregnancy, this requires urgent medical attention. The presence of the yolk sac indicates that you have an intrauterine pregnancy, so ectopic pregnancy can be ruled out. At this stage, the gestational sac has a diameter of 8-10 mm. It becomes smaller in relation to the baby as pregnancy progresses and the placenta starts to fully form.Įxperienced sonographers will be able to find the yolk sac at 5 weeks using transvaginal ultrasound. The yolk sac provides nutrients to the developing embryo, and appears as a small white circle within the gestational sac. The gestational sac contains the amniotic fluid, and appears as the black area on your 5 week ultrasound pictures. ![]() See also 11 Major Reproductive System Diseases in Women The major organs, including the heart, liver, kidneys, and stomach, are already beginning to take shape, along with the digestive, nervous, and circulatory systems. The embryo consists of three layers: the outer ectoderm, the middle mesoderm, and finally the inner endoderm, which will go on to form all the baby’s internal organs and tissues. Your baby will now be growing rapidly inside your womb, although right now, he or she will appear more like a tadpole than a baby, and will only be the size of a pinhead. The 5 week ultrasound pictures are usually taken to visualize your baby’s development in the womb, and to assess his or her progress. Your doctor will assess your pregnancy using blood tests and/or ultrasound if he or she thinks there could be an issue at these early stages. Unfortunately, due to its complexity, this is often the stage of pregnancy where difficulties arise, which may lead to the loss of the baby. The first few weeks of the pregnancy are critical and lay the foundation for the birth of a healthy baby. From the moment when the sperm meets the egg through to birth, your baby will go on a complicated journey of development. ![]() ![]() ![]() When you first get your mochi it’s pretty much a frozen, icy hockey puck. The individual mochi’s are then packed together and either sold at the Bubbies shop or shipped to various distributors. ![]() Mochi ice cream, once made needs to be kept frozen so that the ice cream inside the doughy sticky rice doesn’t melt. I wanted to try a little bit of each, so I opted for 3 mochi ice cream balls: chocolate espresso, lychee and mango. So you’ve got your standard vanilla and strawberry flavors and your more tropical mango, guava and passion fruit flavors as well. I know it sounds kind of weird if you’ve never had it before, but it’s actually an amazing little ball of soft doughy ice cream.Īt Lawson Station they had quite a selection of several flavors of mochi, including: vanilla, strawberry, green tea, lychee, choco mint, choco espresso, passion fruit, guava, mango and lihi mui mango. You start with the pounded sticky rice flattened out like a disc, scoop in a small spoonful of flavorful ice cream, wrap the ice cream entirely within the mochi and then roll the entire one and a quarter ounce ball of goodness in cornstarch to keep them from sticking to one another. You can buy mochi balls on their own and add them as toppings for ice cream or frozen yogurt, or combine the two ingredients together and get mochi ice cream. Created in Japan, mochi is now popular worldwide. Mochi is essentially pounded sticky rice. What really excited me though was that Lawson Station advertised that they also had Bubbies mochi ice cream for sale! I knew then and there that I’d be making a visit to Lawson Station to get my mochi ice cream fix before the end of the trip. For example, Lawson Station was the only place I actually saw the very popular Hawaiian snack of musubi being sold – essentially a spam sushi. ![]() But, Lawson Station also sells a lot of local grab-and-go food popular to local Hawaiians. Imagine my surprise when we checked into our hotel on Waikiki Beach and I discovered a place that was serving up Bubbies Mochi Ice cream! Inside the Sheraton Waikiki there’s a large sundries store called Lawson Station selling everything from packages of macadamia nuts and plastic leis and grass skirts for souvenirs to more practical items which guests could use every day such as cold bottled water and sodas to grab-and-go snacks and cookies. Unfortunately, based upon it’s location, I knew that the likelihood that we’d have an opportunity to visit the store would be difficult as it was located in the heart of Honolulu and without a rental car, we’d pretty much be confined to Waikiki Beach. Of course, seeing an ice cream parlour famous for it’s mochi ice cream piqued my curiosity and interest immediately. Today, Bubbies is known as the industry leader in mochi ice cream with at least 20 different flavors which are shipped all over the Mainland and all over the world with the “Made-In-Hawaii” brand it’s become known for. Over the years it’s reputation for amazing ice cream and sorbets has grown along with it’s operations. Bubbies started in the mid 1980s as a homemade ice cream and sorbet store serving small batch, homemade desserts using local fresh fruits and tropical flavors of Hawaii. When I was doing some research on popular eateries in Honolulu, I came across a store called Bubbies Homemade Ice Cream & Desserts. The soft, chewy outside of the mochi and the creamy, tropical flavors of the ice cream inside are just the perfect combination. On a lunch date with my husband to Buddha’s Belly early last year, I was instantly reminded why I love mochi ice cream. ![]() ![]() ![]() These must include confirmation of the following: The Flight Training Unit must also appoint persons to be ground instructors, these appointments must be approved by the Chief Flight Instructor.ĭuring the inspection of your facilities prior to issuance of the operator certificate, an inspector will review your instructor records, required by and CAR section 406.25.

Higo's backstory with Tokyo Noire and his brother Endo is explained. Plot overview Soccer Suporter Case (Manga: 344-346, Anime: 279-280) Because of the huge similarity of their respective life stories (betrayed by their "black" team and fleeing from its greedy clutches), Higo has become a role model for Ai Haibara, formerly "Sherry" of the Black Organization. At first viciously scorned and derided by both the Noir and Osaka fans, he finally scored the winning goal in a decisive match against Noir, catapulting him back to celebrity status. Bitterly disappointed, Higo quit Noir and joined their major rival Big Osaka, who had hired Rikuo as a team coach. However, two years after they had joined Noir, Rikuo was forcibly evicted from the team because he was merely used as an enticement for the talented Ryusuke and his own soccer skills were below average, making him of no further use for them. Just after they joined the Noir Tokyo team, the two brothers encountered Shinichi Kudo during a soccer match for his middle school team and became impressed enough with his abilities to invite him to join them. He wanted to do this side by side with his older half-brother Rikuo Endo, to whom he was very close despite the fact that he was the result of his (Ryusuke) father's indiscretion with a mistress (Rikuo mother) a fact which was withheld from the public at large.

A few of the classic anime’s characters will make appearances in MF Ghost, but overall, the story will focus on Kanata Livington, a Formula 4 world champion who is searching for his father in Japan.

For anime fans looking forward to a 2023 full of new, epic tournaments, here we list all the sports anime confirmed to release this year…so far. ![]() Animated sports enthusiasts are likely already familiar with these series, though, and as a new year begins, it’s time for something different. ![]() Some of the best and most popular sports anime include hits like Kuroko’s Basketball, Haikyuu!!, Slam Dunk, and Free!, all of which have helped the genre become the staple it is today.

Here are a few categories to consider, along with some suggestions to kickstart your smart apartment plans. Finding apartment-friendly smart home productsĮven if your apartment has an ironclad contract, there are still plenty of apartment-friendly smart home products that’ll fit your needs. That means, regardless of which products you buy, you’ll be able to use them all on your platform of choice. In fact, a new bit of software ( Matter) is set to launch soon, which will offer a unified system for most of your smart home gadgets. While it might seem daunting, it’s not a dealbreaker if you pick a system you don’t like. If they won’t all work on the same platform, either swap out your least favorite pick for another choice or pick the platform that has the most products in common. Then, see which platform is compatible across all devices. The best way to figure out the “right” smart home platform is by first picking out a few products you like. Most products offer their own standalone app - so even if your new smart light bulb can’t hook up with the rest of your system, you’ll still be able to make full use of its functionality. Not only do all ecosystems offer deep catalogs filled with useful smart gadgets, but it’s never a dealbreaker if something doesn’t work with your current setup. Determining which one is right for you isn’t an easy choice, but it’s hard to go wrong with any. These individual ecosystems let you link all compatible products, giving you control of smart bulbs, vacuums, locks, and more in one central location. Google, Amazon, Apple, and Samsung all offer their own ecosystems for smart home devices. Which smart home platform is right for you? John Velasco/Digital Trends In any case, make sure you read your contract closely and understand what improvements you can make. Others might even let you install a smart lock (as long as they have a copy of the keys). Some might be willing to help you install a new doorbell or security camera, while others won’t want you to meddle with anything. If you’re renting from an individual owner, however, you might have a bit more freedom. If you’re renting a traditional apartment from a large corporation, there are probably stringent rules laid out in your contract about what you’re allowed to touch. What you can and can’t modify in your home will vary by owner. While the most exciting part of putting together a smart home is searching for products, there’s something you’ll need to do before heading to the local hardware store: talk with your landlord. ![]() What can you change in your apartment?

Measurements taken at floor level tend to be very turbulent when birds are present, making the accuracy of such measurements highly suspect. To produce the most accurate, repeatable, and representative wind speed measurements with the Weatherflow Wind Meter or any other anemometer, these rules should be followed: 1) Wind speed measurements generally should be taken between four and five feet above the floor. Our field measurements found the Weatherflow Wind Meter to produce average wind speed readings very comparable to other commonly used wind meters. The anemometer has a reported range of 2 mph to 150 mph with accuracy of +/- 0.05% at the top end of its range and within 20 ft/min if held 15 degrees off-axis. The vane anemometer is encased in a sturdy rubberized coating which should protect it from damage if dropped. You are then provided the option of adding notes to wind speed measurements (ie., farm name, location), which is saved on your smart phone, as well as the option of emailing, messaging, etc. At the end of the recording period your smart phone displays the average wind speed, maximum wind speed, along with the direction in which the measurement was taken. To measure wind speed you simply hold your smart phone where you want to determine the wind speed then touch the “start” and your smart phone starts recording the wind speed for a programmable period of 3 seconds to 60 seconds. Though there is no ft/min option, you can set your smart phone to measure wind speed in “m/sec” and simply multiply the measurement by 200 (i.e., 2.3 m/sec = 460 ft/min). You can set up the app to display wind speed in mph, knots, km/hr, Beaufort, or m/sec. to the headphone jack and once you download the free app you are ready to measure wind speed. The small vane anemometer simply plugs in. The inexpensive Weatherflow Wind Meter* ($35) is designed to work with either IOS or Android devices.
