Fate extra last encore episode12/15/2023 ![]() At the same time, though, the pursuit of the new and interesting may lead to overambition. We have, apparently, seven layers of heaven to get through and I hope each of them will have new and interesting designs. I’m pleased that Last Encore is shaking things up in the game we were stuck in the same bland high school corridors for basically half the game, and here’s an opportunity to do better. Last Encore is departing far away from its source game, and brings a radically different setting that SHAFT has to make pretty. In fairness, SHAFT brings more to the table than just cheeky censorship. No matter the gibberish, the audience won’t change the channel as long as they have something to look at. We need some distraction as the words are dumped on us. And the Monogatari staff know exactly what to do with a lengthy expositional dialogue sequence: fill it with fanservice! Why a bath in an elevator? Well, because by the time Marvelous Entertainment made Extella they had realised that Fate/Extra was all fanservice anyway, and because, well, it’s SHAFT. ![]() It’s basically exactly what the Monogatari Series was, and what is Fate/Extra but Monogatari with a few more swords? I mean, Araragi is still here chewing up the scenery, we have the one blonde - we’re set. Miyamoto and Shinbou’s team at SHAFT seem content with taking Nasu’s self-indulgent prose and slapping audiovisuals on top of it, and to their credit that’s what they’re good at. On the other hand, it may sometimes feel that the show is ignoring us and just talking to itself as broken Engrish and random symbolism fly over our heads. ![]() On the one hand, it keeps the mystery going, and the cryptic nonsense will eventually pay off later when the setting and mythology start to click. Compared to normal exposition, which is supposed to elucidate and clarify, Nasu exposition is rife with jargon, non-sequitur, and abuse of furigana (every episode title every week, I’m sure). Whereas previous adaptation of the Fate/ franchise, like Unlimited Blade Works and the currently-in-theatres Heaven’s Feel, tend to smooth out Nasu’s stylistic flair, Fate/EXTRA has applied him directly to the script without filter, for better or worse. But since this show is written by Nasu Kinoko, we get also Nasu-style exposition. So, in this episode of Fate/EXTRA Last Encore: exposition! There’s the stuff we expect, like formally introducing Saber ( Tange Sakura, intent on making my weekly Card Captor Sakura very weird). It’s a common technique, even outside of anime start with a slice of Act II, the interesting stuff, and fill in Act I, the busywork, at some later point. After a no doubt riveting pilot designed to hook viewers quickly, the second episode usually pulls back to do the setup required to actually take the story in any meaningful direction - setup often skipped in the pilot in favour of more action, drama, glitter, or whatever it is that the anime is relying on to wow the audience. Regular viewers of anime may have noticed that episode twos tend to slow down somewhat. OP: 「Bright Burning Shout」 by 西川貴教 (Nishikawa Takanori)

Va disability percentages for hearing loss12/15/2023 Let an attorney on our team help you obtain the compensation you need. While veterans’ hearing loss and tinnitus claims are often denied, the right legal counsel could help you prevail on an appeal in any state. ![]() If you are suffering from hearing loss or ringing in your ears due to your active duty military career, you have the right to seek disability benefits through the VA. Discuss Hearing Loss and Tinnitus Claims with a Veterans’ Disability Attorney A nexus is a medical determination that the hearing loss diagnosis is directly linked to one or more in-service events. This means establishing a medical nexus between the in-service event and the current diagnosis. To receive disability compensation from the VA for hearing loss or tinnitus, a former servicemember must establish a connection between their ear injury and their time on active duty. Establishing an in-Service Connection for Tinnitus Examples could include explosions, small arms fires, and mechanical work. It is not necessary to identify to the particular moment where the damage occurred, only that the events which could have caused the hearing loss took place during active duty military service. In other words, a veteran’s hearing loss can sometimes be attributed to a series of events during active duty service. While some cases of hearing loss are tied to a single incident, others result from long-term exposure to loud noises. Next, a disabled veteran must identify an in-service event that could have caused their hearing loss. ![]() Identify an in-Service Event that Could Have Caused Hearing Loss There are specific tests required by the VA to reach this diagnosis. A hearing loss claim generally requires an examination by an audiologist to determine whether the former servicemember’s ear(s) can no longer pick up certain frequencies. Proving entitlement to VA disability benefits involves providing a diagnosis from a medical professional which indicates that the applicant is suffering from hearing loss or tinnitus. For the purpose of VA disability benefits, hearing loss and tinnitus are distinct disabilities that could result in two separate ratings. In fact, one ear injury that causes hearing loss can also lead to tinnitus. Tinnitus typically results from an ear injury or exposure to loud noises. Tinnitus, on the other hand, involves a consistent ringing or buzzing in the ears as opposed to the absence of sound. Some cases of hearing loss are a minor inconvenience, while others prevent a person from hearing anything. Like with many medical conditions, there are various degrees of hearing loss. Hearing loss is characterized by a person’s diminished ability to recognize sound. Discuss veterans’ hearing loss and tinnitus claims with an experienced VA physical conditions claims attorney on our team. However, the VA routinely denies these claims on the basis of clerical errors regardless of whether an applicant actually qualifies. If you experienced damage to your ears as a result of an in-service event, you could be entitled to receive disability benefits from the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). ![]() Whether in active combat, performing training exercises, or just handling daily tasks, serving in the United States military often exposes individuals to extremely loud noises. While there are a variety of impairments associated with active duty military service, issues affecting the ear, like hearing loss or tinnitus, are especially common. For many veterans across the nation, serving on active duty resulted in lifelong health complications.

Avast good12/15/2023 Avast really wants you to experience the suite and get hooked on its premium-only features. If you reject the upgrade, it offers a 60-day trial. Unwrapping the virtual gift reveals a discounted upgrade to Avast Premium Security. Across the bottom, you find a banner offering you a welcome gift. A left-rail menu lets you switch from the main Status page to Protection, Privacy, or Performance. The biggest part of Avast's main window is a slate-gray rectangle with a bit of texture, decorated with a status icon and a big button titled Run Smart Scan. That seems to be gone, replaced by a Personal Privacy page in Settings. The previous version included a full page devoted to explaining how Avast uses your nonpersonal data, and how you can opt out if you wish. It also asks a few questions to personalize its settings, and then runs a personalized scan. By default, it also makes this your default browser. Not surprisingly, AVG follows the same model.ĭuring installation, Avast offers to install Avast Secure Browser, noting that it is private, secure, and fast. It's a simpler product line than most, just a free antivirus and a for-pay suite. If you want to use Avast in a business setting, you must upgrade to Avast Premium Security, which replaces both Avast Internet Security and the all-inclusive Avast Premier. This product is only free for personal use. We’ve seen no sign of any inappropriate use of private user data since then, so we’re taking Avast out of the penalty box. Avast resolved the problem and terminated Jumpshot terminated Jumpshot shortly thereafter. Based on this privacy slip, we knocked this product's rating down one-half star and removed its Editors’ Choice designation. And the underlying antivirus engine is identical in Avast and AVG AntiVirus Free, as demonstrated in both our tests and independent lab tests.Įditors' Note: Last year we learned about a problem with sharing of user data between Avast a problem with sharing of user data between Avast and its subsidiary Jumpshot. Both have millions of users worldwide, but each is strong in geographical areas where the other is weak. Fans of both companies can rest easy years and years later, there's still no plan to merge them into a single product. ![]() It's an impressive collection of security tools-especially considering that it's free.Īvast acquired rival free antivirus company AVG in 2016. On top of excellent antivirus protection, it adds a network security scanner, browser protection, and more. Avast Free Antivirus gives you more than many competing commercial products. But actually, many of the most popular free antivirus tools offer full-scale protection and a ton of extra features. Getting the advanced bonus features would require becoming a paying customer. ![]() It might seem logical that antivirus companies would offer free antivirus protection as a kind of loss leader, with only the most basic protection.

Vienna fingers ingredients12/15/2023 Refrigerate for 30 minutes (this will reduce spreading during baking). Pipe 10-12 fingers on the baking sheets allowing space between them (for good piping, aim directly downwards, squeeze the bag evenly and firmly). Fill a piping bag fitted with a large star nozzle with the mixture (if the mixture does not flow, massage the bag gently). The consistency should be smooth but not extremely stiff (only add milk if you think the dough needs loosening for piping).ģ. Sieve together the flour, cornflour and baking powder, then mix in the sieved ingredients in 2-3 batches and continue to beat, until thoroughly mixed. ![]() Place the butter and icing sugar into a bowl and using an electric whisk beat until fully combined. ![]() Line a baking sheet with parchment paper (for a piping guide, use a pen to draw 7cm lines on the reverse of the paper).Ģ. Preheat the oven to 190C fan before baking. This recipe makes 10-12 biscuits – the perfect amount for a little practice.ġ. If this happens to you, subsequent batches will leave your nerves shot. The second wake-up call is when you bake biscuits in the oven only to find the dough has spread horribly leaving you just as deflated as your delicate Viennese fingers. Another tip is to warm a steel piping nozzle before fitting it in the bag. Gently massaging the dough in the piping bag will soften it and also remove air bubbles that might create a vacuum. The first wake-up call comes when you commence piping and find the dough is too stiff and doesn’t flow easily. They are the type of dainty biscuit that reminds you that baking is a scientific craft and can go very wrong if you play fast and loose with a few basic rules. They were invented and popularised in Britain, but inspired by Austrian pastries. Viennese fingers, the short buttery melt-in-the-mouth biscuits, fall into this category. ![]() Some things look deceptively easy to make.

Vibe dc villia12/15/2023 ![]() Imagine the fight between Superman and a villain who’s equal to the Kryptonian. He’s almost as powerful as Superman, creates radiation bursts, and has a genius-level intellect. While we may see at least one of them in this project, the real villain could be Atomic Skull. In the film Man of Tomorrow, the villains were Lobo, Lex Luthor, and Parasite. This early version of Superman becomes a symbol of hope for people. Atomic Skull in DC Comics (DC)Īll descriptions of this film suggest that it will be inspired by Superman: Man of Tomorrow. Superman: Legacywill follow a young Clark Kent balancing being a journalist and a superhero. Fans already know how Clark became Superman and how much family and life values passed on from his father matter to him. With Superman: Legacy taking place in a new universe with a new actor, the film should not be another origin story. Utilizing the not-so-popular-but-familiar villain may be a way to get people interested in the stories of this team. Not many people know who the Creature Commandos are. It’ll be interesting to see how a mix of these strange characters will fight tough, unconventional, villains like Amazo. With the team’s more contemporary interpretation, I think the story may be set in the 21st century. The Creature Commandos are a team of military superhumans, and for this reason, fighting Amazo could be a challenge for them. Amazo in Justice League Unlimited series (DC/Warner Bros. Creature Commandos will probably release first and Amazo as the villain could be a perfect fit. ![]() All for Amazo in Creature CommandosĪmazo has the ability to copy superpowers and is best known as a Justice League villain. Here are my picks for upcoming DCU projects’ villains and why they are a good fit for these films/series. In some cases, the answer may be obvious, in others it’s unclear. With the recently revealed slate of DCU projects, many fans are wondering what characters might appear as revisited or new DCU villains.
