I like how Toby turned into his physical form at the end of this movie though. There are no gangsters versus witches fight scenes like in the last one. We don’t have very much to go off of here in this one. I did not like Toby the ghost constantly flying around and through people. I actually quite like how they used the 3D primarily for this one effect. You have all of the floating smoke stuff all around when the paranormal stuff happens. The 3D effect is actually done pretty well here in my opinion. They attempted to fill most of the plot holes and answer questions about the story but I don’t think they were overly effective at achieving this. The rest of the movie isn’t so great though. It creates a pretty immersive and fun experience and I like what the directing team did with it. There is a 3D version of this movie that basically puts all of the ‘ghost dimension’ sort of stuff right out in front of you. ![]() I’m stuck halfway between thinking this movie is a gimmick and thinking this movie is actually pretty cool. Nothing worthy of note, despite what seems to be a real attempt. It would be higher if it had remained the final film in this franchise, but the release of Next of Kin removes that advantage. Honestly, there really isn’t anything memorable for this movie. It was alright, with nobody standing out one way or the other to me. I do appreciate the effort to change some aspects though, so bonus points for that. Seeing Tobi was scary the first few times, but the gimmick doesn’t last nearly as long as I would have liked. Characters made unrealistic decisions, which isn’t new to the series, but at this point these people need to understand the mess that they are in.īad CGI aside, there were some genuinely scary moments in this installment that I felt was lacking in the others. The dialogue felt less realistic and more cartoonish. Of all the films in this series, I have never rolled my eyes louder than in this one. No real soundtrack and realistic sounding effects. It gets old quick man.Īn average score, considering there isn’t anything really new here. Clueless adults who refuse to accept the evidence right in front of them. ![]() The same rehashed plot and a spectre that refuses to lose. Tired of neck snaps and flying bodies? Well, in this installment you also get acidic vomit. If the plan is to show the viewer more of the activity, you need to make sure that the activity actually looks good. It is inconsistent, and while a black mesh of tendrils looks good in the dark, a ghostly hand protruding from a character's chest looks like garbage. Part of the reason why this premise doesn’t work for me is the generally bad looking visual effects. The plot relies heavily on the time travel introduced in the last installment and plot progressions common in these films. Unfortunately this idea is never able to reach its potential, falling short in just about every area. ![]() The premise is intriguing, allowing us the opportunity to see Tobi for the first time. I found the protagonists to be bland and uninteresting, especially compared to Jessie and Hector. I was disappointed to see that this was just an updated version of Paranormal Activity 3. I liked the change in direction the series seemed to move towards in The Marked Ones. I came into this installment expecting much more.

The main challenge is cost, and at $320, it’s a large investment for those who plan on occasional use. The sunshade deploys quickly and has a dedicated pocket behind your back, there’s sufficient storage for most day trips (although it comes up short of the Osprey Poco Plus in this respect), and the side entry option is useful for toddlers that want to load and unload on their own. Plus, the tall back, supportive sides, and plush, washable front pad make for great mid-hike naps (and easy cleanup after).Īs the mid-range model in the Kid Comfort lineup, the pack comes well-appointed. The buckling process isn’t as simple as the Osprey Poco below, but the five-point harness is very secure and easy to adjust. Further, we think Deuter has one of the best child seat designs out there. Deuter packs are known for their quality suspension systems, and the latest model is a standout: it has a sturdy metal frame that easily handles a growing (and active) child, and the padded hipbelt and mesh backpanel mix support and ventilation very nicely. What we don’t: Pricey and the Osprey Poco below has better storage.ĭeuter’s Kid Comfort is our top pick for 2022 by combining high levels of comfort and safety, premium build quality, and organization.

Because of their feature-rich builds, including quality harnesses, padding, and suspension systems, these backpacks can be pricey, but there are deals to be had. Their supportive designs allow for a comfortable and safe ride, and we’ve spent countless hours hiking with both a happy child and adult.

Abnormalities in dendritic shape are the most consistent pathologic correlate of behavioral deficits in heritable and environmentally triggered neurodevelopmental disorders ( Bourgeron 2009 Fukuda et al. In addition, these findings identify RyR channel dysregulation as a novel mechanism contributing to dysmorphic dendritogenesis associated with heritable and environmentally triggered neurodevelopmental disorders.ĭendritic architecture is a critical determinant of neuronal connectivity ( Libersat and Duch 2004 Scott and Luo 2001). The dendrite-promoting effects of PCB-95 are evident at concentrations as low as 2 pM and are inhibited by either pharmacologic blockade or siRNA knockdown of RyRs.Ĭonclusions: Our findings demonstrate that environmentally relevant levels of NDL PCBs modulate neuronal connectivity via RyR-dependent effects on dendritic arborization. Dendritic growth in dissociated cultures of primary hippocampal neurons and in hippocampal slice cultures is similarly enhanced by PCB-95 but not by PCB-66 (2,3,4´,4-tetrachlorobiphenyl), a congener with negligible effects on RyR activity. Methods and Results: Golgi analysis of hippocampi from weanling rats confirmed that developmental exposure via the maternal diet to NDL PCB-95 (2,2´,3,5♆-pentachlorobiphenyl), a potent RyR potentiator, phenocopies the dendrite-promoting effects of A1254. Objective: We determined whether RyR activity is required for PCB effects on dendritic growth. Ca 2+ signaling is a predominant factor in shaping dendritic arbors, but whether PCB potentiation of RyR activity influences dendritic growth is not known. Non-dioxin-like (NDL) polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) enhance the activity of ryanodine receptor (RyR) calcium ion (Ca 2+) channels, which play a central role in regulating the spatiotemporal dynamics of intracellular Ca 2+ signaling. Background: Aroclor 1254 (A1254) interferes with normal dendritic growth and plasticity in the developing rodent brain, but the mechanism(s) mediating this effect have yet to be established. Step 2: Side Missions, Collectibles and Misc trophies Complete any crowd event you see, when you are on your way to mission markers.Make sure to collect any Cockade you see or to open any chest.Try to complete all the challenges (100% Sync).To summarize, for your first playthrough you'll want to: These are randomly generated so you may as well get 10 out of the way instead of searching for them post game. Finally, if you see any crowd events, make sure to complete them. There's 294 chests and 128 cockades so if you can get some of these as you play, it won't feel like such a drag in the next step. As well as completing the story, you want to watch out for any chests and cockades. This will cut back on the plat time but it may lower the overall experience of the story if you focus on challenges. This step will take you about 10hrs if you are going for the challenges as well. The main story is fairly short, with most sequences only having 3-4 memories in them. It isn't like past assassin's creed games where there are lots of specific tasks you need to complete. The challenges are simple enough and just require you to get kills in a certain way most of the time. I do recommenced you go for the challenges in each memory as it will save you having to replay memories later on. The first thing you want to do is just complete the story and enjoy it for what it is. Step 1: Complete the Main Storyline, Complete All The Optional Objectives In Each Of The Memories (Single Player Challenges) I will update the guide once more is known about them. There have been reports of a few glitched trophies, such as Master Architect and I got Skills. It will make the trophies easier and the game a lot more fun. I highly recommenced finding a group and playing with them. This will not take very long and all you need to do it complete all 18 missions either solo or with a group. You also need to complete side missions, as well as fulfil the requirements for a few of the misc trophies. It's just going to take you a long time to collect them all. This may sound like a hell of a lot but they are marked on the map so it is a little easier. You need to complete all the challenges in the main story missions (In other words, 100% sync) and also collect a total of 402 collectibles. Most buildings have interiors you can traverse through and a staggering 10,000 NPCs can be on-screen at once.Īs for the plat, it is fairly simple. The city is also the most dense that an Assassin's creed game has ever been. This mode allows up to 4 players to free roam the streets of Paris or to complete missions together. Unity is the first AC game to introduce co-op. This ruthless struggle will push Arno to his limits and train him to become a master assassin. His pursuit for this won't be easy, as Paris struggles with uprisings in the streets and the inhabitants fighting back for freedom, food and equality. You take on the role of Arno, a young man wounded by the loss of loved ones, who turns to the assassins for help to seek redemption and revenge. The game is set in Paris during during the 18th Century, at the time of the 1789 French revolution. ![]() ![]() Assassin's Creed Unity is next instalment in the Assassin's Creed franchise. There are also accessories to dress your shark, but I wasn’t interested in those. Other pets include a baby beluga or a diminutive killer whale you can win as a daily contest prize. ![]() People who downloaded as soon as the game was available were given a gift of a cute octopus named Kraken, which has proven to be quite useful as a sidekick. The best parts of predatory ocean life are still enjoyable, including munching on slow swimmers and jumping for elusive birds.Īlong with more shark species, Hungry Shark World also offers three maps to explore and lots of new “pets” to accompany you on your rampages. There’s lots of bonus loot to find in the water and plenty of high ranking enemies to inspire you to get bigger. Some missions motivate short bursts of activity whereas others are just based on accruing something over time until you reach the goal, no matter how many tries it takes. The features within each gameplay session are well designed and there’s something entertaining for everyone. Once the sharks get moving though, you don’t notice how they look- just how they bite. They feel faster and more manic than their previous versions, and as a significant improvement, they have a lot more to do. The world is artful and rendered beautifully, though the cartoony sharks are so intense they are almost grotesque. Hungry Shark World offers 17 shark species you can collect and grow, each with different strengths and idiosyncratic styles, including the agile Hammerhead, the comical Basking Shark, the speedy Mako and the iconic Great White. Your goal in Hungry Shark World is to eat as much prey as possible, earning gold and points to grow your shark pup as large as you can. New players to the franchise are also in for a ferocious treat. Veteran fans of Evolution will find Hungry Shark World to be extremely familiar at the outset, but can look forward to many thoughtful new features in this sequel.

![]() Spatialsense/geometric thinking, and measurement. ![]() Prof Sharma has identified key non-negotiable skills which are fundamental to being proficient and successful first in numeracy and then helping them learn mathematics with understanding so that feel confident and appreciate the beauty, power, and reach of mathematics in our world.į. Every member of the teaching staff practices the CPVA model.ĬTLMs believes in focused work and vertical acceleration which helps students in achieving numeracy mathematics developmental milestones at appropriate time. Prof Sharma has developed special tools (skill mastery instruments) and resources to help students master their concepts and achieve automaticity. Questions and the script developed during the process help students to communicate their understanding and mastery.ĬTLM emphasizes strongly teaching and learning with rigor and meaningful practice to help students master the concept so that they achieves automatization with understanding and confidence in their application of the procedures and concepts. This multi-model approach not only makes the concept comprehensive, but also prepares them for applying the concept and the related procedures. ![]() This is an important step emphasized in the CTLM’s methodology.įor example, the multiplication sign x in the expression 3 x 4 means: (a) 3 repeatedly added 4 times, (b) 3 groups of 4, (c) a 3 by 4 array, and (d) the area of a 3 by 4 rectangle. Once the child is able to hold the image of the concept, it is easier for the child to represent it in abstract form and work with symbols It ensures the transfer of this learned information from working memory to long-term memory. Once the child has an image of the concept in the form of pictures, then the teacher guides the child to manipulate this picture in the mind’s eye by the help that script and this process isĬalled visualization. This is possible only if their congruence between concrete, pictorial and abstract representation. This is a fundamental shift in the child’s thinking. This script helps the child to visualize. Along with the development of symbolic level of knowing, the teacher also helps the student to develop and apply a ‘script’ to be able to visualize. Concrete, pictorial representations with the help of language translate into abstract and symbolic representation. The teacher then uses this concrete experience and takes the child to a little higher level of thinking called the pictorial/representational level of thinking.Īt this level, the child represents the ideas in the form of iconic and non-iconic diagrams or figures. This concrete experiences, in the form of diverse models and modes along with proper language and appropriate questioning facilitates the formation of comprehensive conceptual models. The child forms a concrete conceptual schema. Professor Sharma believes that any concept is first learnt by extending the prior knowledge to the new level by using concrete models and The visualization acts as a bridge between pictorial representation and abstraction. This approach differs from the conventional CPA approach in its emphasis on the visualization process. This approach is called CPVA.ĬTLM’s methodology is called CPVA approach.ĬPVA stands for Concrete-Pictorial-Visualization-Abstract. He believes children will master is possible only if lesson the delivered so that students experience the concepts at six levels of knowing: beginning with intuitive level of knowing to concrete, pictorial and abstract/symbolic levels, then these ideas are applied in problem solving to reach the communications level of knowing. Ultimately, these concepts and procedures, by applying them in various settings-intra-mathematical, interdisciplinary, and extracurricular should become skills as tools and ideas. He believes children should develop the mastery of a concept with clear emphasis on the language, concept, and procedures. He has helped thousands of educators from pre-service to veteran teachers in improving their instruction so that children can develop mastery mathematics ideas-concepts, procedures, and skills. He uses these teaching techniques in his courses, workshops, webinars, classroom demonstrations, and in private tutoring. Professor Sharma has devoted himself to bringing up the best teaching practices in mathematics, culled from research from others and his own, and observing teachers all over the world to the classroom.

Other acid attackers have also been sentenced to be blinded in Iran, but this is the first known case where the punishment has been carried out. Under Iranian law, victims or their families have the final say in such cases and can halt the punishment at any time. Islam’s Sharia law allows for qisas (retribution) but it also advises clemency. Iranian officials, worried about the increase in the rate of acid attacks, have endorsed retribution, but human rights activists condemn it as inhumane. ![]() It was not clear if he had carried out the attack for financial gain or whether he was related to the wife’s family. Hamshahri reported that the man in this case had been hired by the relatives of his victim’s wife to take revenge on their behalf. The attacker will be able to plead with the plaintiff to spare him from being blinded fully.Īcid attacks have been rife in Iran in recent years, usually driven by family feuds. He was subsequently sentenced to be blinded in both eyes, paying a fine and 10 years imprisonment.Īlthough the convict was sentenced to lose sight in both eyes on Tuesday, the victim – who, under Iranian law, has the final say in the punishment – decided at the last minute to postpone the blinding of his right eye for six months. The man had been found guilty of throwing acid in the face of his unnamed victim five years ago in the city of Qom, blinding and disfiguring him for life. “Medical staff who cooperate with the Iranian authorities in this act have broken the Hippocratic oath and cannot call themselves doctors,” he said. Mahmood Amiry-Moghaddam, from Iran Human Rights (IHR), an independent NGO based in Norway, condemned the blinding as barbaric. |
