Now I knew from being at my friend’s house that it was only a matter of time before you’d be greeted by Strawberry Shortcake’s voluminous odor before seeing her. (Okay, maybe I thought he was kinda cute in the cartoon, but I was going to take that secret to my grave!) OMG, I totally forgot about Pupcake! Yes, that’s PUPCAKE. My parents made the classic “over-please them” mistake of buying three dolls for us to have fun with - the original Strawberry Shortcake, Blueberry Muffin, and for some dumb reason, the yucky boy doll named Huckleberry Pie. But it was nothing compared to the dolls. The Berry Bake Shoppe (so quaint with its old-timey spelling!) playset reeked to high heaven - almost like Juicy Fruit gum that’d been left out in the sun too long. There was no masking that fake smell behind brightly-patterned paper - we knew what we were getting as soon as we bopped down the stairs that morning. The sweet, sickly smell permeated the air, just as it did in our house at that Christmas. Upon walking through any toy section of any department store, you’d swear that its walls were made of strawberries. This is a fact that we’ve already established.īy the time my parents caved and got me (and my younger sister) a Strawberry Shortcake playset at Christmas, the fad was in full swing. (The same friend who also became the My Little Pony enthusiast.) That and an accompanying cartoon, because ANY toy worth its salt HAD to have a Saturday morning cartoon. So most of my initial exposure to the brand was through my friends’ collection. Sadly, my parents and I weren’t exactly on the same page when it came to toys. I was completely enthralled at the notion of a strawberry-themed doll actually smelling like strawberries that I decided I HAD TO HAVE ONE. Then, one of my best friends made us all totes jealous by bringing her brand new Strawberry Shortcake doll to school! She was so very adorbs in her wittle pink and red dress and frizzy hair and green-striped tights! And by all and all, did she smell….delightful! Like freshly picked strawberries! Or so my young mind thought in the moment. The first time I recall seeing anything Strawberry Shortcake was on one of those cute but chintzy valentines cards that we used to dole out to friends in February in grade school. It’s no wonder that we became all shitforbrains about gross neon colors and stupidly big hair - we had been raised high on fumes! It was like at some point, some one in the toy world made the god-like decision that ALL toys had to smell like plasticized fruit. Pardon the Seinfeldian introduction, but was WAS the deal with smelly toys in the 1980s? Seriously. Strawberry Shortcake and Custard the Cat. The delicious smell of Rose Petal and Strawberry Shortcake dolls. List item #27 from 53 Things Only 80s Girls Can Understand Did I really just type that? Gag me with spoon, seriously.) So throw on your neon windbreaker, lace up your hi-tops, and adjust your Wayfarers, because this DeLorean is taking off! (Ugh. Serving as my inspiration are two lists from Buzzfeed, and I’ll include links to the original list items in each post. Every other week I’ll be covering pop culture tidbits from the 1980s, sharing memories, choking on the ridiculousness, and maybe offering an insight or two into what made the 1980s so great/bad/silly. Welcome the next installment of my year-long look back at the decade that was ruled by big hair and bigger egos.

The Ataraxia first appeared in the novel The High Republic: Light of the Jedi, written by Charles Soule and published on January 5, 2021, while the release of The High Republic 2 on Febru connected the name to the ship depicted in the preview. It was first pictured, albeit not identified as the Ataraxia, in a preview released on on Decemfor the second issue of the Marvel Comics series of the same name, written by Scott and illustrated by Ario Anindito. The vessel subsequently featured in the Star Wars: The High Republic publishing initiative. The spelling of the starship's name was unconfirmed until it was provided by the script release of the audiobook on October 1 of that year. The Ataraxia was first mentioned in the audio drama Dooku: Jedi Lost, written by Cavan Scott and published on April 30, 2019. When one initiate, Dooku, was insulted by fellow initiate Arath Tarrex, he suggested fighting back, but his friend Sifo-Dyas told him that they would be punished as a result, and forced to remain on the Ataraxia for the duration of the event. In 90 BBY, the Ataraxia was used to transport a number of Jedi to the Outer Rim planet Serenno, in order for Jedi initiates to attend a celebration of the planets and cultures of the galactic region. The Ataraxia was eventually reclaimed by Jedi Master Keeve Trennis. During the destruction of Starlight Beacon, the ship was taken by Nihil Tempest Runner Lourna Dee after she killed OrbaLin, and she renamed it the Lourna Dee. First commissioned by 232 BBY, the Ataraxia served under the command of Jedi Master Jora Malli at the Battle of Kur. The Ataraxia, known for some time as the Lourna Dee, was a starcruiser in the service of the Jedi Order. " Okay, that I would like to see, but if you do, Braylon will make sure we spend the rest of the Celebration holed up on the Ataraxia. THe seasons will change per week, so 1st week its Spring, 2nd week its Summer, 3rd week its fall and 4th week its Winter, and then it starts over again. We have numbered them to align with the details below, but you can unlock them in any order. If I’m on the island and the season suddenly changes to spring, am I stranded for weeks? Here is a map showing the 14 barns hidden in Forza Horizon 5. During the game, a single purple spotlight will. They’re scattered throughout the terrain. If it’s winter when I’m driving on the lake to collect the barn find, and during that time the season changes to spring, do I sink? If so, is there an insurance agent in the game I can contact? Is flood damage realistically modeled in the game now? The map indicates all 14 barn find locations with a purple spotlight. Britain Fortune Island LEGO Speed Champions Show All Hide All.

Well Im not showing any on my map - thats the issue. Each barn find offers collectible cars that will reward you with additional Influence, as well as add new vehicles to your collection for you to make use of. Will Barn Finds unlock for everyone at the exact same time regardless of game progress? Or would someone potentially have to wait weeks to collect their Barn Find? The season specific barn finds are marked in colors on the map corresponding to the season. “There are a couple islands in that lake that you can gain access to that normally you wouldn’t be able to, and I don’t feel I’m giving to much away to say there is a Barn Find on one of those islands.” You’ll earn one additional tab each Season by finishing the Conquerer tier, up to a maximum of five: If you’ve been diligently slaying demons to reach Conquerer in the Season Journey previously, you’ve surely accrued extra stash tabs. Gaze upon the Taennin the Tiny pet as she shimmers among the stars, leaving ripples of the purest light behind, and tap into your wild side with the Primal Hunter portrait. The Wings of Lempo draw inspiration from some of the noblest creatures in Sanctuary, and aside from a cosmically rare drop, few other wings are quite as lovely.Īs in past seasons, two new End of Journey cosmetic rewards will be obtainable during Season 28. For the most devoted cosmetic collectors, we have a pair of wings fit for a monarch. In addition to the Helm and Shoulder slots of the exclusive Conqueror Set, players can earn a brand-new series of portrait frames themed around the clarion call of adventure. For Season 28, this means rewards originally available from Season 16 are returning. We hope you enjoy the Rites of Sanctuary as much as we do.īeginning with Season 17, we began reintroducing previous rewards to make them available to players who may have missed them the first time around. As we look towards Diablo IV's release, we wanted to celebrate its arrival with a feature that emphasizes progression as well as offer some interesting details about Sanctuary. Developer's Note: Our aim with this Season Theme was to enhance the journey players experience each season by tying material goals to meaningful choices. Using the ancient Altar of Rites, curious Nephalem can follow the instructions, sacrificing various materials for unspeakable power that lasts the entire season. Season 28 introduces Rites of Sanctuary, our new seasonal theme. Then, the Nephalem marched into town and requested to see the Altar.” A few days passed, many townsfolk came to view the Altar and left. We began the long haul back to New Tristram with our prized discovery. Who they are I'm unsure of, but I can be certain that we must share our discovery with others. As we began to investigate this curious find, a faint whisper infiltrated my thoughts. The other miners helped me dig out the biggest artifact I've ever seen-an ominous-looking altar. We chipped away at stone after stone until my tool made a hardy thunk into the rock and the foulest stream of gas spewed out. Our search for ancient Nephalem artifacts forces us to enter a mangled mass of corroding foliage and decaying flora. “Oh, the pursuit of coin makes you do the most foolish things, but mining is profitable. For an in-depth look at the seasonal theme, rewards, and the balance changes made between the end of the Patch 2.7.5 PTR and now, take a gander below.

Power from the days of yore rests silently across Sanctuary, waiting to be uncovered once more. In this form of manual override, the sprinkers will stay on as long as the solenoid is rotated in the "on" mode. Also, I can manually override the switch by turning the solenoid on the valve. It still shuts off after about 20sec of operation. Lastly, I swapped out the solenoids on the valves but the symptom did not change. Regardless of mode, the symptom shows up whenever I try to use the timer to turn on the valves. Also, this symptom is present whether in "AUTO" mode in which the timer is supposed to cycle through the stations and in "MANUAL" mode in which I can either sequence through all of the stations or select a specific station for a specific duration. I don't think I have seen this in the past. Also, the time is constantly flashing a "MO" message in the lower right hand corner with a circle around the "MO". According to the timer, it should still be on (shows still 2 1/2 min in countdown.) No subsequent station starts up. As it turns out, the first station will operate for about 20 seconds (rather than the 3 min I have programmed) and then the valve shuts off. This weekend I noticed that the system wasn't running, so, I tried to debug the problem. Contractors also have access to the Rainbird SAM rotors I mentioned before, low mist rotors, and nozzle trees that will get you spot on watering with rotors.I have a 4 station orbit timer that has been in service for several years. Home Depot sells lower quality heads than your contractor would provide by a small amount. Additionally, a WiFi based controller can save loads of water without sacrificing a bit of quality in the lawn or beds. Rainbird makes SAM rotors with a check valve you can add on the low head that will save a lot of water. Lots of water is lost on the low head when the water runs out after a zone is finished running. Ive had lots of people act like watering a bit of concrete on the end of rotor throws is terrible, but I’ll say, if you don’t water a bit of concrete out there you’ll end up dry when the wind blows. Adjusting rotors or sprays is a simple task. I like to use the same brands, mostly because the tools are different among brands to work on them, but you could theoretically run into different precip rates among different brands within their nozzle spectrum. Just put a pic of it on here and we can recognize the brand instantly. Irrigation has been a central feature of agriculture for over 5000 years, and was the basis of the economy and society of numerous societies, ranging from Asia to Arizona.Īnd Check ou the Big List of Related Reddits Irrigation is often studied together with drainage, which is the natural or artificial removal of surface and sub-surface water from a given area. Irrigation systems are also used for dust suppression, disposal of sewage, and in mining. In contrast, agriculture that relies only on direct rainfall is referred to as rain-fed or dryland farming. Additionally, irrigation also has a few other uses in crop production, which include protecting plants against frost, suppressing weed growth in grain fields and preventing soil consolidation. It is used to assist in the growing of agricultural crops, maintenance of landscapes, and revegetation of disturbed soils in dry areas and during periods of inadequate rainfall. Irrigation - the artificial application of water to the land or soil. I'm impressed you stuck with it, coming back from your huge factory/airstrip hole must feel overwhelming. Make more wall cells and connect them with the bastions so that troops destroy and cross the bastions to move between wall cells.

Seasoned RTS gamers will be familiar with gameplay, but newbies might feel lost and confused. Use your bastions in the design rather than have them be an afterthought (unused) on the edges. The game does a good job in combining traditional RTS/TBS base-building with current-gen mobile strategy mechanics. You can switch storage buildings with defensive building as you like. If you could share it to me and everyone that would be great. So, essentially trade some mills/markets for wells.Ĭonsider removing gates as they don't offer much in the design aside from giving commandos an easier path to your air defenses.

"He is the biggest softie, so when you see somebody that is this aspirational, inspirational in what they're doing - and does a lot of good charitable things for children that aren't spoken about - he doesn't do it for the cameras - I just thought, 'Oh, my God, this is Simon's lane,' This is exactly what he aspires to be.

Gettyīefore he made the deal, Rogers had already greenlit the production of 200,000 Tetris cartridges. His desperate attempt to curry favor failed.Ĭzechoslovakian-born British media baron Robert Maxwell, who unsuccessfully tried to buy 'Tetris'. Robert Maxwell, the infamous former owner of the British Mirror newspaper group (and now-defunct videogame publisher Mirrorsoft), had published Gorbachev’s autobiography–and was also in the advanced stages of contract negotiation. In a 2014 interview with the Guardian, Dutch gaming icon Henk Rogers explained that after he approached ELORG for distribution rights, two agents were dispatched to his office in Tokyo–but luckily for both parties, it ended with Rogers successfully offering the Russians “the best contract ever seen in the industry.”Ĭompetition was so fierce that Rogers’ main rivals lobbied Mikhail Gorbachev directly. The licenser who acquired Tetris for Nintendo was visited by two intimidating KGB agents. The deal was signed for ten years, and Pajitnov barely made a ruble from his creation during that time. It was one of the first games acquired by the state-run Elektronorgtechnica (ELORG), which monopolized both imports and exports of software in the Soviet Union. With no idea of how to publish the game–and scared of the anti-Soviet concept of making money from it–Pajitnov ceded the game’s rights to the Soviet government, taking advantage of its recent socio-cultural evolution through perestroika. The Soviet Union originally owned the rights to Tetris. Different developers in Hungary, Britain, the United States and beyond “discovered” Tetris around the same time due to “shareware” versions of the game–and they began to publish their interpretations whether Pajitnov knew it or not. Ownership of Tetris was hotly disputed for years, all because of rampant piracy. In the initial test run, bracket elements were used for the tetriminos themselves. As this video demonstrates, the original playing zone consisted of exclamation points, periods and slashes. The Elektronika 60 had no graphics capability–text was used to form its blocks. Vadim Gerasimov, who worked on the early game with him, wasn’t a fan of the name at all. With “tetra” as half of the title’s inspiration, Pajitnov derived the “is” from tennis, his preferred pastime. Its name also came from Pajitnov’s favorite sport. Tetrominoes, later known as “tetriminos” in the game, inspired the title Tetris. This provided Pajitnov’s game with five “free” shapes–the famous I, O, T, S and J formations – alongside mirrored versions of the S and J (Z and L). Pentominoes have five blocks, while tetrominoes have four. The name Tetris derives from the shapes chosen by Pajitnov. As a youngster, the mathematically minded Soviet scientist was a big fan of pentominoes–a tiling puzzle which used shapes that consisted of five blocks. Pajitnov’s inspiration came from a childhood hobby. Alexey Pajitnov, the creator of 'Tetris', in 1990. |
