I thought that:ģ% = has seen in use, or has held in his handĥ% = has used 2 days in work, understand the principle in general The "factories" are in the light blue, and gray area.Ībout SKILLS, weapons etc. Today, the villages in my own area (southern green) are well-dressed and armed. Usually I have destroyed by traps (to the west or north of the village by making a forest border) archipelago, dark gray, light green/gray, yellow and orange villages. When the old ones fight, I run through the village myself, and steal as much stuff as I can. I thought about asking them where to travel, but I had other things to do and I don’t know if it would have been possible.Įlderly people (who living alone) i usually destroyed by taking them on a military expedition to an enemy village at night. I didn’t know where they were going, I didn’t leave to follow, but probably a new village exchange. I once noticed surprise in the woods - wandering villagers. On the other hand, helping could be made easier: I have helped villagers in my area by buying from them "useless" goods, that I take to the west, where I buy armors, weapons, and fur/woolen clothing for them. You select a product, and the person retrieves it for you. "? You could choose a topic from the menu: clothes, weapons, furs. I also thought that trading could be made easier and faster. The tasks performed at their place could be similar to those in my own country. It would be good to trade with the Njerps as well, and if you want, you could jump on their side. I have also thought about the possibility of stealing a child and raised it as my own. Is a couple of good self-praises enough? On the other hand, someone from an enemy tribe is also good for me. I thought some criterion must be that your spouse sees you as a good hunter / fisherman. Thoughts/feedback/ideas are welcome, too. So basically I want to start by seeing if there is actual interest in this idea, because it's not something I would create solely for my own use. The player could, if they wished, imagine one of the "Maiden" NPCs in the village corresponded to the one talked about in the story. The mod could not actually create a new NPC, unfortunately, so this would be the closest it could achieve. one of the final steps would be to build a house nearby the village for the two of you to live in. ![]() The next task might be something like "Come to town wearing a full set of fur clothing, to show that you are self-sufficient." Then you'd trigger the next step in the story/quest, which would describe (via the F1 key) her noticing your styling wardrobe, and further conversation with her, now becoming somewhat flirtatious. The entry could then describe you and her having a throwing competition, which you barely won. This one would describe how she witnessed you felling the squirrel, and was impressed by your aim, and how you spoke for a while, etc. When you accomplished this, you would activate the next menu item, which would give you a new token with a new F1 entry. Such as, "fell a squirrel with thrown rocks near a village". Probably some warrior maiden would be the most apropos? It would then describe the first task needed to win her affections. There's be certain things you'd have to accomplish before reaching the next stage, though a lot of that would be left to player enforcement.įor example, the start item on the menu would give you a token, which when examined with F1 would describe the woman you were trying to woo, with a picture. The "quest" would essentially be a story told through the F1 key, where each stage of it would be a single menu item, and the entire mod would be contained within one menu. ![]() Inspired by Privateer's quest idea, I wanted to float the concept of a multi-stage "quest" mod in which you would woo, or otherwise prove yourself worthy of, a wife (or husband if interest was sufficient there'd be one version for each). ![]() information from more recent survey collections.up-to-date directories, business directories, and directory assistance.The most commonly used tools for verifying contact information include: determine whether the selected participant is still in-scope for the survey (e.g., Has the establishment ceased to exist? Has the respondent moved out of the geographic scope of the survey?).update the basic identification information in the survey collection process (e.g., name, address, phone number, email, contact name or for an area collection, pinpointing the geographic location of a farm on a map, etc.).be sure we know how to reach the selected survey participant. ![]() The objective of verifying contact information is to: For example, extra research might be required in the case of telephone surveys when some of the telephone numbers of the people or organizations selected to be survey participants are found to be out-of-date. This extra research is limited to contact information only, and replaces the outdated methods of searching through telephone books and printed business directories that we have historically used. When we need up-to-date contact information, we look for additional information through various publicly-accessible and internal-to-government sources. Statistics Canada selects survey participants from a list of individuals or organizations compiled from various sources. What other sources of information can be used to obtain my contact information? Unlisted phone numbers can be made available to Statistics Canada by survey respondents, other government departments and communication service providers on the condition that they are only used for statistical or research purposes. Can Statistics Canada obtain my unlisted phone number? The success of our surveys will depend on partnerships with communication service providers as well as the ongoing cooperation of Canadians. Updated lists of household addresses and associated phone numbers and email addresses are essential for comprehensive census collection. This is best accomplished through increased use of phone and email follow-ups with Canadians, before census employees are sent door to door. Statistics Canada is striving for a contact-free approach to conducting the census and all other household surveys – including the monthly Labour Force Survey. For the census, Statistics Canada uses phone numbers and email addresses to reduce the need for personal contact, which protects the health and safety of Canadians. Statistics Canada strives for a contact-free approach to its surveys, including the Census of the Population, to protect the health and safety of respondents and staff. The Survey of Household Spending, 2019, determined that nearly half of Canadian households (45.1%) had only a cellphone and no landline. An increasing number of households have replaced landline telephone service with a wireless service exclusively. Statistics Canada needs to represent all dwellings in its samples in order to produce high-quality data from its surveys. Email addresses are considered another modern way of contacting respondents in a digital age, similar to cellphones and landlines, each being added as technology evolved. The prevalence of cellphones and corresponding decline in landline use has increased the likelihood that an interviewer will contact Canadians on their cellphones. Why does Statistics Canada obtain phone numbers and email addresses? Phone numbers, including those for cellphones, and email addresses are provided to Statistics Canada by survey respondents, other government departments and communication service providers on the condition that they are only used for statistical or research purposes. The Statistics Act provides the authority for Statistics Canada to collect dwelling and contact information. How does Statistics Canada acquire phone numbers and email addresses? ![]() The data from other statistical programs, such as the Census of Population as well as health and social surveys, provide information that affects the funding of essential services that all Canadians depend on, such as public transit, hospitals and schools. These important programs include the Labour Force Survey, which produces the monthly unemployment rate. Information collected by Statistics Canada supports a number of statistical programs that benefit all Canadians as well as our country's businesses. Statistics Canada acquires and uses Canadians’ phone numbers and email addresses under the authority of the Statistics Act to ensure that all Canadian households, including those that use cellphones or other communication services exclusively in lieu of landlines, are contacted and represented so that our surveys produce an accurate picture that reflects all the people of Canada. How does Statistics Canada use phone numbers and email addresses? It was released by Warner Bros., which like CNN is a unit of WarnerMedia.

A decade later, the city of Chicago, Cook County and the federal government agreed to a $1.85 million settlement with the raid’s survivors and Clark’s and Hampton’s families. A prosecutor and 13 others were charged with conspiring to obstruct justice and were acquitted in 1972. Initially, seven Panthers were charged with attempted murder and other counts the charges were later dropped. A grand jury found Hampton was shot in the head twice and that police had found two guns next to him.

Txiri is right - it's pointless to claim superiority for one language because it uses two terms where another language uses one. I grew up in farm country knowing the appearance and calls of a number of common species of owls (barn owl, screech owl, snowy owl, etc.) but the generic name "owl" was also useful, just as "wolf" refers to timber wolves, gray wolves, and many other species of wolf (which do not include foxes!). According to the lechuza article at, the general pattern is to use búho for species that have tufts of feathers resembling ears and lechuza for species like barn owls that lack these "ears," such as barn owls. Both are members of the same family (Strigidae), and both may refer to multiple species depending on local usage. Looking at the Wikipedia articles on búho and lechuza, it appears that the two words don't correspond to taxonomic categories. Reviving this topic, five years later, since I didn't find a clear answer here. Īhora voy a llevar a pasear a mi perro collie >) I think you can probably google the scientific names and find out if there is actually a distinction made in other languages between búho - lechuza The other approach would be to look up the etymologies.

Īs to "conscience", "consciousness" and their adjetives, if we really have one for the former, it would have to be "conscientious"- and I suspect it may have once meant "having a well-developed sense of a conscience", although nowadays I think it´s limited to "taking great care and detail with" an activity.

Imagine. ![]() The world of Fantasian is also fleshed out through beautiful hand-drawn vignettes that offer a nice change of pace from traditional cutscenes while allowing the music of famed composer Nobuo Uematsu - Sakaguchi’s friend and longtime Final Fantasy collaborator - to really shine through. All the while, Sakaguchi maintains the whimsy of the older FF games through fun bickering between the characters, like the Uzra airship captain Zinikr constantly butting heads with the disrespectful-yet-genius orphan Ez. Learning more about Leo’s past by following the interdimensional exploits of his enigmatic father kept me intrigued, while the tragic backstories Princess Cheryl and the Queendom of Vibra and the mysterious Kina added a powerful emotional hook. ![]() “Impressively, Mistwalker has gone to the trouble of producing more than 150 physical models filled with incredible amounts of detail and scanned them into the game.” While the dialogue itself might not be terribly original, the characters prove to be quite likable and grew on me over time. Instead, he uses these tropes to weave an engaging tale about the balance of “chaos” and “order” and the unwitting heroes who get caught in the middle. Fantasian is very traditional in this sense, but therein lies a good deal of its charm.īut Sakaguchi - who penned the game’s story and oversaw the rest of its development - is careful not to rely solely on fanservice. The story places an amnesiac protagonist named Leo at the centre of a multi-dimensional conflict between machines and humans, the gameplay revolves around turn-based combat and random encounters, and you’ll even ride on an extravagant airship early on.Įven more casual players of Sakaguchi’s older games are likely to catch that characters named ‘Sid’ and ‘Garland’ and a ‘Phoenix’ item being used to revive downed party members are not-so-subtle nods to Final Fantasy. Like a long-lost Final FantasyĪt first glance, Fantasian might seem rather derivative. And as much as I’d love to believe the claim that “Lost Judgment” is a Judgment sequel, I want to see it from more than an anonymous source.Although a full verdict will have to wait until the Apple Arcade game’s second and final part releases later this year, Sakaguchi has already won over this lifelong fan of the genre. I’m planning in case the PSP/Vita/PS3 store is really shutting down, but we don’t know that for sure yet. Meanwhile, there have been a lot of rumors going around lately that I’m not going to write a full post about until we have something more official. In other JRPG news, Kazushige Nojima has a mobile game called Zodiac: Orcanon Odyssey that is now being reimagined for Switch, PS4, and PS5, so I’ll be keeping my eye on that. It’s looking like a JRPG I don’t want to miss. Several games have started on Apple Arcade and come to other systems later, so I can’t help but hope Fantasian will be ported once both parts are out. On the other hand, the official website FAQ confirms that once it’s downloaded, you can play Fantasian offline, a major point in its favor if I do get to play it. Unfortunately, Fantasian is exclusive to Apple Arcade, and after looking at its page on the App Store, I’m not sure my old iPad will be able to play it anyway. The second part will reportedly have a more quest-focused, open structure. It won’t necessarily be split perfectly in half, but if the length of the second part is similar, we could easily be looking at 40+ hours of playtime for Fantasian. The first part has an estimated playtime of 20-30 hours.Įven taking into account that developers tend to exaggerate game lengths, that’s longer than I expected and it’s only the first part. Yet a recent Famitsu preview, translated by Gematsu, suggests it will be much longer than I expected.įantasian will be released in two parts (which seems to be common for Apple Arcade games for some reason), both of which are due out this year. Now, up until now I’d expected Fantasian to be a short JRPG. ![]() The soundtrack is composed by Nobuo Uematsu, and it might be the final game he composes the full soundtrack for. The more I see about Mistwalker’s upcoming JRPG Fantasian, the more excited I am (and the more I wish it wasn’t exclusive to Apple Arcade).įantasian is a turn-based JRPG where the environments are all hand-crafted dioramas, and it looks great.Ī features trailer released earlier this month showed off some of its gameplay mechanics, such as how you can save up random encounters to fight the battles in a chain later on instead, and the story trailer really does remind me of classic JRPGs.

If you don't include tax is on your invoice, leave out the subtotal and tax columns. Review your state's website for laws regarding tax on shipments.

Be sure that you clarify who is receiving the order. This only needs to be included if products are being shipped. Multiple invoice numbers are sometimes assigned to a single order number, as some products, such as certain pharmaceuticals, legally require a separate invoice. Number, also usually sequential, used to track the order. Number, generally sequential, used to identify the invoice. An invoice, therefore, is created after the purchase order. A purchase order is created before an invoice because it defines the contract of the sale. InvoiceĪ purchase order indicates the type, quantity of product and services being sold by a supplier, including an agreed upon price. Note: The sample invoice template includes sections for shipping information however, this would not appear on every blank invoice template. Sections that are not self-explanatory are defined in the list that follows. Rather than listing things to include, we’ve drawn up a sample invoice, which is pictured below. Invoices are usually heavily formatted documents. A rental invoice generally includes a section stating the duration(s) for the rental period(s) (you get the idea). An invoice for products being delivered, for example, includes shipping details, while an invoice for services or non-delivered products does not. The components of a professional invoice can vary by transaction. ![]() An invoice is a document issued to a buyer by a seller, indicating the sale or rental of goods and/or services. Here are a few things to keep in mind when rounding work hours: This method can’t be used as a means of cutting labor costs or favor the employer in any way. The Department of Labor (DOL) allows employers to round time up or down within 15-minute increments, but there’s a catch. And yet, some small-business owners still use rounding to calculate their employees’ wages. ![]() These days, thanks to GPS-enabled time tracking and payroll automation, fishing for small deviations from regular clock-ins and clock-outs has become much easier. ![]() Depending on the type of your business and general industry practices, you can round work hours in 5-minute and 15-minute increments or to 1/10th of an hour (more on that in a moment). In a nutshell, time clock rounding means that the actual work hours of your nonexempt employees are rounded up or down by set increments. “So, what does time clock rounding mean?” This can be done either by asking employees to write their hours down, using regular time clocks or through time-tracking software. ![]() Under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), all employers are required to track and store employee time records completely and accurately. Time clock rounding helped streamline calculating wages and save chunks of time in the process.īut does it still make sense today? What Is Time Clock Rounding? Back in the day when handling payroll was pretty much a pen-and-paper process, employers would use rounding to account for odd minutes and seconds outside the regular work schedule. ![]() While 1/8” jacks are often used in consumer-grade products such as smart devices and headphones, and 1/4” units are more popular for studio use, they are still fundamentally the same type of cable – TRS. The latter I won’t cover due to their rarity in music studios. TRS (balanced) cables come in a range of sizes - from the standard ‘instrument’ 1/4” ( 6.35 mm) to 3/32” ( 2.5 mm). This also applies to utensils like splitters, power packs. 1/4″ TRS to 1/8” TRS or RCA to TRS, etc.). If I go really deep into the functions, the physics and the potential uses of each individual cable on the music market, this article would be about 40 thousand words and more boring than _ insert your least favorite album here_.Īdditionally, I will avoid naming and going into detail regarding every single converter/adapter available unless it is very important.įor the most part, you can convert any prominent and functional cable head into another (e.g. I will provide a base overview, the different forms and uses each cable can provide and that’s it. I’m not going to go deep into specifics about each cable. I won’t go into any further detail on this cable though, as it is very unlikely you would ever come across it at an amateur, bedroom level. There are a few exceptions to this though - for example, a five-pin XLR cable, which can transmit a stereo, balanced signal using just the one connection. Generally speaking, balanced cables are mono, meaning you will need two signals to replicate a stereo sound setting. That is unless your headphone cable stretches from your room to Mercury…Īlso, since the signal coming to headphones is already amplified, the amount of external interference is going to be negligible as opposed to when you’re running a microphone level signal, which is then amplified to line level (with all the distortions that the cable picked up along the way). For example, connecting a pair of headphones to a phone’s headphone output will result in an unbalanced connection yet won’t result in crackling and lower audio fidelity. However, balanced cables aren’t necessarily required to get high-quality audio for a number of applications. With that said, most instruments (such as electric guitars, keyboards, etc.) have unbalanced outputs, so using a balanced cable with them would be a little pointless - the end result would be exactly the same. Unbalanced cables are not, meaning that they are less ideal for the quiet, clean signals required when listening to music on monitors, for example. Mic level is exactly what it sounds like and the softest of the three - the level output by a microphone, which is then boosted by a preamp to reach line level.īalanced cables are essentially designed to be free from interference - be it from radio, nearby signal transmissions, and other external noise. On some audio interfaces, the same input jack can be used for both instrument and line-level signals, but in that case, there’s also a switch that lets you set the correct gain for each signal level (e.g. Instrument level (aka Hi-Z) is the direct level of guitars and basses transmitted via an instrument cable before being converted to line level by something like an audio interface, or a DI box. Instruments such as keyboards/synths/digital pianos are generally outputted at line level when being recorded in a signal chain. Line level is the typical level used by most professional audio equipment. However, when categorizing analog cables there are two more instances we must consider: Balanced vs Unbalanced, and the level at which the signal is transmitted.Īs discussed in previous articles - there are three levels of signal that are transmitted via a cable: That said, this article will still touch upon a few digital cables that will often be just as required as a typical instrument cable (MIDI, USB, Thunderbolt, Firewire, Optical, etc.). Typically, the stars of the show in your music studio will be analog cables. There are two main types of cables: analog and digital.Īnalog cables work by sending information via a stream of electricity (an electrical signal) from one point to another.ĭigital cables work by sending information via a stream of binary code (1s and 0s) from one point to another. What Actually Are Cables? How Do They Work? Digital vs Analog Īs a part of Team Gamersleague, Snute improved dramatically, culminating with a Homestory Cup VI win at the end of 2012. While in University, he felt that dedication was necessary in order to do well professionally in the field of music technology and that it "cannot be half-assed." Feeling the same way about StarCraft II, he decided had to choose between the two and, in 2012, he chose StarCraft, becoming a full-time progamer. Snute joined Team Gamersleague in late 2010 while playing SC2 as a hobby and, in 2011, started studying Music Technology at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim with the goal of becoming a "renown trance producer". Falling behind his younger peers and doubting his own ability, Snute was rejected from his preferred school and eventually lost his passion for the piano. But he felt that there "seem to be things that couldn't be understood or mastered" even with amazing teachers and hours and hours of practice. His whole family played some instrument or another and Snute was very dedicated in becoming a good piano player. Snute also aspired to become a professional pianist. He continued with DDR as a hobby and for workouts until he moved from Norway and no longer had access to the equipment. Able to perform 10 steps a second, he would go on to become the Norwegian champion of Dance Dance Revolution in 2004, and was featured in several Norwegian newspapers. He was bitten by the competitive (jitter-) bug again in 2002 when his older brother got a dance mat for the PlayStation and he developed a competitive mindset for dance games. However, they lost interest after a while and Snute quit playing Brood War after a couple of years. Competitive by nature, Snute and his classmates in elementary school would hold StarCraft: Brood War tournaments.
