![]() ![]() Luckily for the FBI, these would-be crusaders begin their crime spree at the same time as Johnny Utah (Luke Bracey) is in training with the government agency. This aspect of the quest has inspired Bodhi (Édgar Ramírez), Grommet (Matias Varela), Roach (Clemens Schickand), and their accomplice Samsara (Teresa Palmer) to mastermind some daring, Robin-Hood-style heists. Part of this Nirvana-attaining pursuit requires the participants to give back to Mother Earth more than they take. So there is a misclassification problem.Do you remember those old Hollywood musicals, such as Singin’ in the Rain or The Band Wagon, that featured a storyline akin to a clothesline upon which were pinned various production numbers where dancers like Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire or Cyd Charisse would strut their stuff? If so, then you will know what to expect from Point Break, which is really just an excuse to string together numerous scenes of well-choreographed sports action.įor what it is worth, the plot involves a group of extreme athletes attempting to complete the Osaki 8 – a fictional series of challenges that honor the forces of nature. The people who might actually like the idea behind PB 2015 would be the people who didn't typically want to see those action movies. The ppl who went to see it because fo the name was hoping for an action movie with "clear plot" about bad guys and good guys. The film was rated pretty decently in some countries where people didn't know about the original too.īut I do get why people hate it. I have never watched the original though. It is not hard to understand they are trying to challenge the human-centric view with a more naturalistic one. I think you are right, I just watched the film and actually liked it. Not to mention the main character kills the main girl who in the original lives, and she didn’t need to even be in the new o Se it’s sooo impossible… so the bad guys do all the tasks annndd rob like Robin Hood at the same time? So it wasn’t that hard? And the protagonist finds out what they are doing from watching ten seconds of them taking cash out of a plane and how they jumped out of it. It’s just piggybacks off the original title and characters names. I could go on and on, but mainly it’s completely different than the original and everything new is lazy. Not to mention the main character kills the main girl who in the original lives, and she didn’t need to even be in the new one at all because she didn’t affect anything. Like the whole scene where his FBI boss is questioning him on whether or not he wants the job enough, one of his responses was “enough to go to school 5 years after my friends graduated” and I’m like wtf does that have to do with anything? Also the whole “underground poly-athlete osoka blah blah challenge” thing was dumb cuz supposedly the guy was famous for creating the list but never finished it himself because it’s sooo impossible… so the bad guys do all the tasks annndd rob like Robin Hood at the same time? So it wasn’t that hard? And the protagonist finds out what they are doing from watching ten seconds of them taking cash out of a plane and how they jumped out of it. I hate it because of the lazy writing and the main character is a terrible actor imo.

![]() ![]() Dictionaries can also be used to sort, iterate and compare data.ĭictionaries are created by using braces () with pairs separated by a comma (,) and the key values associated with a colon(:). Unlike lists, where index numbers are used, dictionaries allow the use of a key to access its members. The main operation of a dictionary is to extract a value based on the key name. This is a very powerful datatype to hold a lot of related information that can be associated through keys. In computer science and computer programming, a data type (or simply type) is a collection or grouping of data values, usually specified by a set of possible values, a set of allowed operations on these values, and/or a representation of these values as machine types. Dictionaryĭictionaries in Python are lists of Key: Value pairs. ![]() Tuples are great for this.įor more information on Tuples, see the TutorialPoint Python Tutorial on Tuples and the Dive in Python section on tuples. There are other datastructures such as lines, vectors, domains and other data in Rhino that also require a certain set of values that do not change. If this is set as tuple, then you can be assured the original 3 number structure stays as a point (34.5, 45.7, 0). For instance a Rhino point is a list of 3 numbers. It seems tuples are very restrictive, so why are they useful? There are many datastructures in Rhino that require a fixed set of values. It makes your code safer if you “write-protect” data that does not need to be changed.If you’re defining a constant set of values and all you’re ever going to do with it is iterate through it, use a tuple instead of a list. You can also use the in operator to check if an element exists in the tuple.You can find elements in a tuple, since this doesn’t change the tuple.Elements cannot be removed from a tuple.Here are some advantages of tuples over lists: Print the value of variable 'kwlist'.MyGroup = ( 'Rhino', 'Grasshopper', 'Flamingo', 'Bongo') In keyword module there is a variable 'kwlist'. Note 3: Except first 3 (True, False, None), all reserved words are only lower case alphabets. Note 2: All reserved words consist of only alphabets. Try, except (like catch in Java), finally, raise, assertĭef (to declare methods and constructors), passĭel (to delete a variable, method or class) Note 1: 'switch' and 'do while' is not available in Python. While, for, break, continue, return, in, yield True, False, None (like null in other languages) In Python some words are reserved to represent some meaning or functionality, these words are known as reserved words. Note 3: if an identifier starts with _ (two underscores) symbols and ends with _ (two underscores) symbols, it is language specific identifier. Note 2: if an identifier starts with _ (two underscores) symbols, it is strongly private Now, can you tell which Identifiers names are valid among the 1: if an identifier starts with _ (underscore) symbol, it is private. But it is not recommended to use too lengthy identifiers because for too lengthy identifiers the readability of the code will be down.įor example for Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx=10, you will get no error but it is not a good programming practice. There is no length limit for python identifiers. ![]() ISP issues: When the hardware manufacturing company issues an update for the firmware, they provide this firmware to the ISP.If you notice any physical damage, check if it voids the warranty.

I got stuck with a big burp early on but was able to correct.” I never want to be distracted by the other competitors,” Sudo, of Port Richey, Florida, said after the competition. “The first couple minutes, I found myself watching her, which I never want to do. She said competition from the 27-year-old Ebihara had thrown her off. Sudo, 37, was disappointed in her winning total, which was nine hot dogs short of her all-time high. A final count of plates settled the score. The unofficial real-time counter showed the two leaders tied throughout much of the competition. Sudo beat Mayoi Ebihara’s 33 1/2 hot dogs in 10 minutes in a women's event that appeared to be much closer until the final count was announced. ![]() Hot dog-eating champ Joey Chestnut helped subdue a protester, as a group interrupted the. “Everybody got messed up,” Chestnut said. Chestnut continued to eat hot dogs the entire time on his way to his 15th Nathan’s Famous holiday crown. His best finish was in 2021 when he tallied 76 hot dogs, but Tuesday's weather disruption made a repeat impossible. The 39-year-old from Westfield, Indiana first competed for the Nathan's title in 2005 and hasn't lost it since 2015. “What a roller coaster, emotionally,” Chestnut said after riding out the rain and wondering whether the famed contest would go on at all. But before the men could compete, stormy weather moved over New York City's Coney Island and delayed the competition for two hours. In the women's contest, defending champion Miki Sudo forced down 39 1/2 hot dogs and buns to collect her ninth Mustard Belt. Esper, of Oxford, Massachusetts managed to ingest 49 hot dogs and buns. "The Nathan's Famous Fourth of July Hot Dog Eating Contest is arguably the most iconic sporting event in American history," Shea said.Eating superstar Joey “Jaws” Chestnut shook off a rain delay and gobbled his way to another win at Nathan’s Famous Fourth of July hot dog eating contest, downing 62 franks and buns in 10 minutes.Ĭhestnut out ate runner-up Geoffrey Esper and the rest of an international field of 15 competitive eaters by double digits to clinch his 16th title.

While Koungoulou has still expressed dominant behavior, which has changed some of his new group’s dynamics, the new dominant male of the group has not yet been determined. There, he was able to enjoy the outdoor enclosure and formed strong bonds with other chimpanzees, Christopher and Dan. ![]() After careful consideration, he was transferred back to the main sanctuary where he was slowly integrated into a new group. JGI’s Chimpanzee Welfare Index helped staff at Tchimpounga develop an individual care plan for Koungoulou, who was too dominant to integrate with other chimpanzees living at the sanctuary’s island sites. ![]() Zeze KoungoulouĪt Tchimpounga, every chimpanzee’s individual needs are our focus. Their kinship and compassion, along with the professional care of JGI’s caregivers, present an opportunity for Zeze to see a future filled with hope. Though he will never recover his eye, Zeze has recovered a sense of family with the other rescued chimpanzees, like Perrine. Though the infant’s future seemed bleak, JGI’s expert staff devoted specialized care to him, making sure his caregiver provided 24-hour love and treatment. Because of Zeze’s injuries and malnourishment, the Angolan government worked with JGI to ensure the transport of Zeze to Tchimpounga. In 2020, little Zeze was attacked and lost his eye as a result of the illegal pet trade in Angola. This represents a sanctuary context with trained professionals.* Zeze Perrine *JGI does not endorse handling or close proximity to wildlife. Today, she can walk, play, and even climb. After weeks on the brink, thanks to JGI’s expert staff Perrine started to eat on her own. JGI caretaker and surrogate mother Antoinette then spent every moment with Perrine, 24 hours a day, gently feeding her to make sure she had adequate nutrition. JGI staff performed a blood transfusion-one of only two known successful chimpanzee-to-chimpanzee blood transfusions performed across countries in Africa, both at Tchimpounga. The situation was dire as she was also anemic and had a fever. At two years old, Perrine was severely underweight, weighing less than six pounds (at birth, chimpanzees typically weigh four pounds). Rebeca Atencia, executive director of JGI RoC, flew from Spain to Republic of the Congo to save the infant’s life. Just before 2020 began, Perrine was found in the remote village of Enyelle in northern Republic of the Congo, stolen for the illegal wildlife trade. To celebrate the brave work of Tchimpounga’s staff, here are just a handful of success stories from 2020! Perrine While the COVID-19 pandemic necessitated some adjustments, that did not stop the mission. Overall, this unique strategy has promoted the conservation of chimpanzees, improved captive welfare of great apes, and serves as a model for other organizations looking to effectively tackle the root causes of wildlife trafficking.JGI’s Tchimpounga Chimpanzee Rehabilitation Center in the Republic of Congo has been rescuing captive chimpanzees for nearly 30 years. Additionally, the Triangle Approach integrates the best-in-class welfare standards of chimpanzee sanctuaries that have contributed to knowledge on chimpanzee health and behavior, as well as the creation of a novel standard welfare index to ensure that chimpanzees in captivity are receiving the best possible care. This holistic approach has informed citizens on the illegality of wildlife trafficking and its harm to chimpanzees through leadership sessions, billboards, television shows, and radio broadcasts. The three strategies of the Triangle Approach are environmental education and awareness, law enforcement, and chimpanzee sanctuary work. This paper synthesizes information on each aspect of the Triangle Approach, as well as its successes, through data provided by the Jane Goodall Institute and interviews with staff and directors. The Jane Goodall Institute created an integrative strategy called the Triangle Approach to combat great ape trafficking and promote the conservation of chimpanzees. The illegal trafficking of great apes is a complex, multi-billion dollar industry that has resulted in dwindling wild chimpanzee populations through activities such as poaching for bushmeat and the pet trade. ![]() We recommend that you do not solely rely on the information presented on our website.

I have now written nearly 700 words on my favorite pencil. The lead holder is retractable, as mentioned above. I don’t have any particular preference for either thickness. The ClearPoint Elite comes in 0.7 mm and 0.5 mm varieties. The thing around the lead holder is metal, no doubt because the plastic version on the original ClearPoint tended to break. It tapers inward and is comfortable enough for me. Again, PaperMate improved the feel here on the Elite vs the original ClearPoint. This is made from some sort of rubbery substance and is molded into the barrel, which tapers slightly inward. In my experience, this makes erasing more difficult, so the side button makes this pencil far more useful.Īgain the button mold was changed from the original ClearPoint to smooth out some of the corners. Most mechanical pencils extend their leads by pressing down on the eraser. When you press the button, it advances the lead a little bit, or if you hold it down and push the tip against the paper, the lead holder retracts. You don’t have to change your grip very much to hit the button to give yourself a little more lead. This button is located on the side of the barrel. It holds the pencil in place effectively on thin cardstock or inside a spiral bound notebook. Not much to say here, other than I haven’t had one break yet, unlike the clips on the original ClearPoint. The eraser itself seems to do a good job at erasing, not falling apart or smearing the written lead. The surface of the ring is smoother on the ClearPoint Elite than on the original ClearPoint, which had sharper features. I have read some complaints about the mechanism not holding the eraser firmly in place, but this hasn’t been a problem for me. So you’ve got plenty of extra eraser in reserve once you’ve worn out what’s already there. The eraser is the diameter of a wooden pencil eraser and can be extended from the barrel by means of a rotating ring. Let’s take a look at this pencil top to bottom. The mold was much smoother and more refined in the hard plastic parts and on the rubbery parts, making it nicer to hold. The other piece which broke (I’m sure there’s a technical name for it) was also now metal.ģ. The piece at the bottom of the barrel around the lead holder was also brittle plastic and would break.Įventually PaperMate introduced an upgraded version, the ClearPoint Elite which eliminated these problems while adding a couple other nice features:Ģ. The clip, made of brittle plastic, would break off.Ģ. I owned several of these and was quite happy with them, but they tended to have a couple problems:ġ. ![]() There was really only one solid choice I found on the market: the original PaperMate ClearPoint. Replaceable leads so you can keep using it after the factory load is gone. For those of us who need to erase, a button on the side to extend the lead is much more practical.Ĥ. Again, if you don’t really need to use the eraser, this isn’t a problem. A mechanism for extending the lead that doesn’t rely on pressing down on the eraser. Many mechanical pencils are apparently made for people who don’t need to erase, and have erasers like a grain of rice. I make big mistakes and frequently need to remove them. This problem could also be ameliorated by the use of a removable cap, but this tends to get in the way of requirement #2.Ģ. Pockets are a special problem, as it means you could get poked in the leg as well. Without a retractable tip, the tip tends to snag if it’s tossed into a soft container like your pocket or backpack. This is about more than just having a retractable lead. I had a hard time finding a mechanical pencil with the following characteristics:ġ. The quest for a great mechanical pencil started a number of years back. I want to introduce to you my favorite writing instrument: the PaperMate ClearPoint Elite.

There have been several glitches and malfunctions reported following the recent update. ![]() The king will buff any moogles within his vicinity, which at three stacks will end up being lethal to the tanks, so the tanks must constantly be on watch for the buff stacks on the PLD and WAR (the only two which they can tank) and swap aggro on the king so that the stacks do not go over 3. In Phase 3, the players must repeat the same strategy, except the moogles now have some new tricks whenever the King rallies them. If the moogles are handled successfully, the King should sacrifice nearly half his health to revive them. It's best avoid fighting in the center if possible, as the moogles sometimes perform a Delta Attack on command of the king. Since Pukla Puki will periodically try to cast Pom Flare (that needs to be stunned by inflicting 1000 damage), it's best to only attack her when she's casting. To best deal with this, players should try to get every moogle down to around 10% health before defeating one. Each time a moogle is slain, Good King Moggle Mog XII will restore all moogles to full health (at a cost to his own), but after the second time he uses Pom Meteor (dealing high AoE damage), and the third time (where he can no longer revive his fallen mooglesguard) he will cast a full-power Memento moogle that will KO all players unless he is killed in time. The king has a frontal attack which will drain MP or TP and should be kept away from any party member as well as any other moogles except from the WAR and PLD, which the tanks will deal with. This battle is much more difficult due to the different strategy needed to win and the new tactics employed by the moogles. Once his health is lowered to 90%, the other moogles join the battle. Unlike the other battle, initially only Good King Moggle Mog XII is present on the field. ![]() The Good King Moggle Mog XII now styles himself the Great King Moggle Mog XII, and all the evildoers in the forest shall tremble before his majestic wrath! Reminded of how deadly the Twelveswood has become, the royal guards have instead channeled their fear and desperation into calling forth an even more potent potentate. Kuplo Kopp's attempt to chastise the Mogglesguard for their dangerous and foolhardy actions has not had the intended effect. And so, like those other aether-starved beings, he too must be felled for the sake of the realm. Though the king is not considered a primal in the strictest sense, he poses a threat not unlike that of the beastman gods, in that his influence could corrupt his people's peaceful nature. Good King Moggle Mog, the Twelfth of His Name, has once more been called forth by the Mogglesguard. 6.1 Theatrhythm Final Fantasy Curtain Call. |
