Automaton story furry4/30/2023 ![]() What Ho, Automaton! - the first of his Reeves and Worcester Steampunk Mysteries series - was a finalist for the 2012 WSFA Small Press Award. His memoir, French Fried, is an NY Times bestseller. He writes SF, Fantasy, Mystery, Humour and Memoir. Which he did, and got a book out of it - the International bestseller, French Fried: One Man's Move to France With Too Many Animals And An Identity Thief. Abandoned by the police forces of four countries who all insisted the crime originated in someone else's jurisdiction, he had to solve the crime himself. The latter out of necessity when Chris's identity was stolen along with their life savings. They grow their own food and solve their own crimes. Now he lives in rural France with his wife and a frightening number of animals. In 2004, his acclaimed novel, Resonance, was the first book plucked out of Baen's electronic slushpile. In 1981, he created Randomberry Games and wrote Necromancer, one of the first 3D first person perspective D&D computer games. As he told journalists at the time, 'It was only a small country, and I did give it back.' ![]() Chris created the Free Cornish Army, invaded the country next door, and persuaded the UK media that Cornwall had risen up and declared independence. Some people might have arranged an interview with the local newspaper. That was in 1974 when Chris was tasked with publicising Plymouth Rag Week. One thing to say to Chris Dolley: More please!" - Sueo23Ĭhris Dolley is a New York Times bestselling author, a pioneer computer game designer and a teenage freedom fighter. A homage to Wodehouse without being sycophantic, this is fantastic. "I found myself laughing out loud at Reggie and the fabulous Reeves as they romped their way through various adventures. I don't think I've actually laughed out loud this much while reading a book in a very long time." - ErisAerie A steampunk novel that combines classic British Humor, tongue-in-cheek references to Sherlock Holmes and a cast of great characters. "I found myself snickering and snorting as I read, thinking the entire time 'this is pure awesome'" - Tiffany A. ![]() Fans of Wodehouse will certainly appreciate Dolley's witty pastiche," - Publishers Weekly "Dolley's collection of Wodehousian steampunk is entertaining and often spot-on parody. Highly recommended, take a spin in this steampunk hybrid and enjoy the ride!" - SF Revu Any Wodehouse fan will want to grab a copy of this work, but even if you have never explored that world, What Ho, Automaton! is a fun and fascinating read. More than fascinating, this work is also rip-roaring fun! But where Dolley really excels is in capturing the atmosphere and humor of the Bertie and Jeeves stories. Dolley is a master at capturing and blending all these elements. Wodehouse, steampunk and a touch of Sherlock Holmes. With the help of Reeves's giant brain and extra helpings of fish, he conducts an investigation that only a detective of rare talent could possibly envisage. When Reggie discovers that four debutantes have gone missing in the first month of The London Season and, for fear of scandal, none of the families have called the police, he feels compelled to investigate. Something Rummy This Way Comes - a 164 page novel chronicling their first case. What Ho, Automaton! - a 32 page novelette about how the two met. The book contains two stories set in an alternative 1903 where an augmented Queen Victoria is still on the throne and automata are a common sight below stairs. And, two, a consulting detective’s little grey cells require plenty of fish and frequent lubrication when confronted with a ‘three cocktail problem.’ Reeves needs all his steam-powered cunning and intellect to curb the young master's excessive flights of fancy. Reggie, an avid reader of detective fiction, knows two things about solving crime: One, the guilty party is always the person - and, occasionally, the orang-utan - one least suspects. Dolley's tone is spot on Wodehouse and the steampunk elements tie into both plot and silliness admirably." - Gail Carriger, author of Soulless "Dolley got me to laugh out loud near the end. The adventures of Reggie Worcester, gentleman consulting detective, and his automaton valet, Reeves. More than fascinating, this work is also rip-roaring fun!" - SF Revu ** Finalist for the 2012 WSFA Award for best short fiction **

Space punks cape4/30/2023 Super stoked on it, Ally immediately got involved, picking up bass duties and co-writing, alongside Matt, on what was left of the EP. Some time after that, he showed the material to another homie, Ally. So he hit up Bro Studios and recorded some of the shit he had written – with him nailing all guitars and vocals, and Paul (Bro Studios engineer) drumming. Then one day, hanging out with his homie, Marc, he was convinced to get the fuck into a studio, record the tracks professionally, and release an EP through Marc's label, High Seas Records. In 2010, Matt began writing some songs and recording them at home without much intent to actually do something serious with them. For the dudes in Hours, that thing is pop punk. Point is: there are very few things that you still feel the same way about – from adolescence through to adulthood. We blamed them for taking away what we loved most: the dinosaurs. They just freaking rule.īut as kids: we hated them. They’ve made valuable contributions to science and our comprehension of space and the universe. Meteors: As adults, we think they’re the most kick ass thing ever. Pauly Shore films: that shit was hilarious – now they're close to unbearable. You probably feel differently about almost everything, right now, compared to the way you did, back when you were younger. We're not sure what's to follow but are extremely excited and incredibly humbled by the interest in this event. This is something we have been talking about for a long time but haven't been able to realise with Steven living in the UK. Our personalities, looming professional occupations, studies and the stress from gigging almost non-stop since our inception were all contributing factors, but we remained close friends and consider those old issues to be dead and buried for good. In our time together we performed at numerous clubs across the Western Cape including Mercury, The Whammy Bar, Wynberg Sports Club, Lanner's Landing, The Purple Turtle, Gandalf's, Roots and Acoustic Cafe.įestivals include Knife Fight Festival II and III, Witchfest, Riot at the Madhouse and Rocktopia.Īrmour disbanded after finishing our full length self-titled album, which was recorded and engineered between 20. ![]() We were heart broken, but Armour had turned into something we couldn't give up on and our friend Jon Shaban, who we had been experimenting with on violin, joined on guitar and backing vocals, adding a whole new element to the band. Kimon performed at numerous live shows and contributed to a lot of the initial song writing process (his metal inspiration can be heard in 'Life Through Lesson') but had to make the hard choice of leaving the band to focus on his studies in 2005. ![]() David would also often provide additional vocals, as heard at the end of our first release 'Icarus Theory'. With Steven joining the line up, Brett was free to focus on melodic vocals, giving the band its distinctive dual vocal sound. It might sound trivial, but that was a huge step for us, having a singer who could produce the same sounds as the vocalists from the bands we were getting into. Up until that point, none of us (including himself) knew he could. Steven came on board as a vocalist a few months after when we discovered he could scream while singing along to Finch's Falling Into Place EP. This first line up consisted of Jon on drums, David on lead guitar, Kimon on rhythm guitar and Brett on bass and vocals. Our musical tastes were bolstered after hearing Poison the Well's Tear From The Red for the first time in 2003, inspiring us to start a new band. We spent our high school years together going to punk rock shows, listening to Deftones on repeat, skateboarding around the suburbs and spending weekends starting short-lived bands in sealed up spare rooms and basements.

Wordservice trim line beginnings4/29/2023 Please have a look at this figure from the specification, explaining the main idea behind the flex layout. If “regular” layout is based on both block and inline flow directions, the flex layout is based on “flex-flow directions”. ![]() Some of them are meant to be set on the container (parent element, known as “flex container”) whereas the others are meant to be set on the children (said “flex items”). Since flexbox is a whole module and not a single property, it involves a lot of things including its whole set of properties. ![]() Note: Flexbox layout is most appropriate to the components of an application, and small-scale layouts, while the Grid layout is intended for larger scale layouts. While those work well for pages, they lack flexibility (no pun intended) to support large or complex applications (especially when it comes to orientation changing, resizing, stretching, shrinking, etc.). Most importantly, the flexbox layout is direction-agnostic as opposed to the regular layouts (block which is vertically-based and inline which is horizontally-based). A flex container expands items to fill available free space or shrinks them to prevent overflow. ![]() The main idea behind the flex layout is to give the container the ability to alter its items’ width/height (and order) to best fill the available space (mostly to accommodate to all kind of display devices and screen sizes). The Flexbox Layout (Flexible Box) module ( a W3C Candidate Recommendation as of October 2017) aims at providing a more efficient way to lay out, align and distribute space among items in a container, even when their size is unknown and/or dynamic (thus the word “flex”). Volume of Rectangular Prism Using Formula Method The following are the “all in one” formulas we can use. The following video shows how to do a composite areas volume calculation for an irregular “L-shaped” prism.įor Rectangular, Triangular, and Cylindrical Prisms, we can do calculations faster by using “all in one” formulas, where the Area x Height calculation has been combined together to give a single volume formula for the 3D shape. If you are not sure about what “Composite Areas” are, then take a look at our Composite Areas lesson at the link below: However, sometime we can use “Composite Areas” method to calculate the irregular area end of the Prism. This means that we cannot easily calculate the area of this odd shaped end.įor these types of prisms, the area is usually given to us in the question, and we then use this area for our V = A x H calculation. Sometimes the ends of our prism are not a simple shape like a Rectangle, Square, Triangle, Trapezium, or Circle. V = A x H gives us the Volume of the cylindrical prism. MAKE SURE THAT IF THE DIAMETER ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE CIRCLE IS GIVEN ON THE DIAGRAM, THAT YOU DIVIDE THIS DIAMETER BY 2 TO GET THE RADIUS !Įg. The following video shows how to calculate the Volume of Triangular Prism.įor a prism which has Trapezium shaped ends, we need to first find the area of the Trapezium using A = 1/2 (top + bottom) x height of trapezium.įor a prism which has Circle shaped ends, we need to first find the area of the Circle by Pi x Radius x Radius. V = A x H gives us the Volume of the prism. Once we have this area, we can then multiply it by how high (or how long for sideways prisms).Įg. Just remember that the standard position for a cylinder (or any of these Prisms), is standing up straight like a Coca Cola can, or a tin of fruit at the supermarket, and not lying on its side.Īrea Formulas that we need to use for Prism ends are the following:įor a prism which has triangle shaped ends, we need to first find the area of the triangle using A = 1/2 x base x height of triangle. Note that when the Prism is layed on its side (like the examples above), we still call the length between the identical ends the “Height”. Mathematicians have found that for any shape Prism that has two identical ends, the Volume is always the Area of the End multiplied by how long or high the prism is. The following example shows how to calculate the volume of a box shape Rectangular Prism. The following video shows the cubes stacking concept for working out the formula for Rectangular Prism volume This means that we can use the mathematical formula of V = L x W x H, (rather than drawing and counting cubes), to work out the volume of any Rectangular Prism. Or the Area of the bottom layer multiplied by how many stacks high the prism is. ![]() Using some simple 3D box shapes, we can investigate Volume relationships as shown in the following examples:įrom our investigation, we can see that the volume of a 3D box shape, (called a “Rectangular Prism”), is always the LENGTH x WIDTH x HEIGHT Image Copyright 2013 by Passy’s World of Mathematics In mathematics we call the 3D shape a “Prism”.Ī 1cm cube is about the same size as a sugar cube. ![]() The Volume of a 3D Shape is the number of cubes needed to fill the inside of the shape. Water authorities in cities need to make sure that there is an adequate volume of water held in dams and reservoirs. People designing and building cars need to make sure there is enough volume inside the car for occupants and their belongings to be transported comfortably and safely, as well as ensuring the volume is correct for air bags to deploy effectively during accidents. Hairdressers need to mix chemicals together in the correct volumes when making hair treatments.īakers and Chefs need to measure out volumes of ingredients accurately, and know how to scale these amounts up and down for making different quantities of product. Heating and Cooling Technicians need to calculate volumes of buildings to work out what types of systems to install. ![]() Medical Personnel need to administer blood and drugs in specific volumes to patients using cylindrical injection containers and intravenous drips.Ĭoncreters need to calculate correct volumes of material required, because concrete is expensive, and it is hard to dispose of any extra left over material.

Dinosaur coloring pages4/29/2023 It occupied the area which is now known as North America. It first appeared on Earth in late Maastrichtian stage of the late Cretaceous period, which dates back to about 68 million years ago. It belongs to the family of herbivorous ceratopsid dinosaur. Triceratops is derived from Greek word, which means three horn faced dinosaur. This dinosaur looks a little friendly and its snarl is appearing as a broad grin.

Your little one will love to color this friendly dino who is saying a hello. We generally associate all dinosaurs as predators, it is not true, but the close up of this dinosaur confirms it could have been a blood hounding predator of the prehistoric times. It is not known which species of dinosaur this one belongs to, but its sharp canines show that it was possibly a predator or a carnivore. If your child watched Jurassic Park already and loved the movie then you can write Jurassic Park below the picture. This is a close up picture of a dinosaur and you can pin it up in your kid’s room after he finishes coloring it. Most probably, the Allosaurus attacked the prey in an ambush, using their lower jaw as a hatchet. Paleontologists are divided in their opinion on the behavior of the Allosaurus, some believe that they had a cooperative social behavior while hunting in packs, several others think Allosaurus were aggressive and ate from same carcass. Ornithopods, stegosaurids, and sauropods. The most common victims of an Allosaurus attack were The body got balance from the heavy well-muscled tail.Īllosaurus was really dangerous as it preyed on other herbivorous dinosaurs and other animals. The three fingered forelimbs were small compared to large and powerful hind limbs. It was probably 8.5m (28ft), however the fragmentary study show that Allosaurus could have been 12 meters (39ft). Watch any Dinosaur film like Jurassic Park and you can spot one Allosaurus there! It had a large skull with dozen of sharp teeth, enough to make your blood curdle. Allosaurus is classified as allosaurid, a type of Carnosaurian theropod dinosaur.Īllosaurus is a bipedal predator. The name Allosaurus means ‘different lizard’ and it is also derived from Greek. Allosaurus:Īn Allosaurus is a large theropod dinosaur that lived 155 to 150 million years ago, during the late Jurassic Period. It is the sheer size and the lashing tongue that created the fear. This picture shows the dinosaur to be dangerous but it actually never attacked any human or other animals. Lystosaurus were very robust and their body type helped them to survive the changing atmospheric conditions during the Permian-Triassic extinction event. Lystosaurus were great diggers and they lived in burrows. The forelimbs are more robust than hind limbs. The structure of the shoulder and hip joints, as found during skeletal study by experts, suggest that the dinosaur moved with a semi-sprawling gait. A lystosaurus is a heavily built herbivore and it is approximately a size of a pig. It probably had a horny beak that helped it to tear of pieces of vegetation. Lystosaurus had only two teeth, a pair of tusk like canines. Lystosaurus occupies the areas now known as Antarctica, India and South Africa. It lived during the Earlier Permian and Middle Triassic period that dates back to nearly 250 million years ago. Lystrosaurus species of Dinosaur belongs to the family of dicynodont therapsids. It looked scary no doubt, but it didn’t harm humans! 14. This gives us some evidence that this dinosaur had conifer needles, seed, twig and fruits. All the skeletons of Corythosaurus were found with food preserved in the chest cavity. ![]() The air used to pass through various chambers of the crest and would get amplified when the corythosaurus exhaled. It is believed that the crest helped in vocalization. It is easy to detect a corythosaurus specimen from skeletons because of the tall crests. The name and description of this dinosaur was given by Barnum Brown in 1914. The name Corythosaurus is derived from Greek, which means ‘helmet lizard’. The dinosaur existed on the face of the Earth 77 million years ago. Corythosaurus:Ĭorythosaurus is a type of duck billed dinosaur that belonged to the Upper Cretaceous period. You can tell your little one these trivia about Brontosaurus to make the coloring session fun and informative. The real name of Brontosaurus is derived from Greek works ‘apatelos’ which means deceptive and sauros which means ‘lizard’. AuthorWrite something about yourself.
