Because we can’t Google anyone we’re forced to make up our own minds about what’s happening in the narrative. "Also writing anonymously allows me to inhabit the reader more effectively.

This, it seems to me, is the most devastating weapon of all in a woman's arsenal. She made you feel like it was okay to be a guy. The patient wants her to feel the pain, too The nurse wants to prevent him from this pain. But the patient isn’t suffering from an external illness, he’s suffering from self-inflicted wounds. The nurse becomes willing to sacrifice herself in the patient. The very fact that they were naturally caring and loving would be the milestone that weighed them down.And who knows, maybe someone will benefit.

I thought, if I hurt her enough she would want revenge. It doesn’t matter how long it takes, you want revenge. My logic went as follows: If someone hurts you then you automatically want revenge.I'd ask them out and pretend I hardly ever did "this kind of thing', I hadn't been out a lot in London because I didn't really know the scene. I'd meet the women the first night and get the obligatory phone number and then after another couple of days, making them sweat a little, I'd call and be all nervous.In New York, everyone just looks hurt.We are not punished for our sins we are punished by them. What you do comes back to you with twice the force, fuck it, three times the force. An unwritten axiom that governs our emotional dealings.

It is there due to the object’s position or due to the state it is in. Potential energy is the stored energy in an object. That’s the short version of how catapults work. They work by storing up potential energy, then changing that into kinetic energy which sends the projectile flying. How Do Catapults Work?Ĭatapults are a great way to explain energy to kids. They are already fascinated, just slip in some fun facts. That makes it perfect to get kids excited about the science behind it. Yes, it is important to be careful when we do it, but it’s still fun. (And even if you are.) Chances are that won’t cause major injuries, but it can really hurt to be snapped by a rubber band, especially if it is unexpected.Ĭheck out these other fun science activities! Make sure your child understands that rubber bands can snap back if you aren’t careful. Make sure children aim away from their own faces. Even with small, soft items children need to be taught how to use them properly.ĭo not launch anything at anyone’s face and especially their eyes. This is a pretty safe activity, but it is important to remember you are creating a projectile. I prefer using a spoon because it gives a little more stability and helps the balls fly further, but both ways work. Glue the lid on the end of your catapult and place your puffball there to launch. Instead of using a spoon, you can also take a bottle cap from an orange juice or a milk jug. In fact, it is a valuable learning experience for your children to see you adapt and improvise. It is okay if your STEM project doesn’t look perfect. How do I know this? Because I’ve had to do it. No plastic spoons around? No problem, you can use a spork and it works just fine. Seriously, a simple popsicle stick catapult design can be made with so many household items. I’ll give some alternatives to them further down.ĭIY popsicle stick catapults are a great STEM activity because you can make them with so many different items. If you don’t have any of these items, don’t worry.
Released in 2015, Fleeing the Complex is the 5th and (so far) last sequel in the Henry Stickmin adventure series. You will have to make good and fast decisions to make it out alive. The highly secured prison is guarded by some strong stick soldiers. If you give any other meaning to this game it is completely up to you. Fleeing the Complex is an amazing stick figure escape game. That said, this is only a horror game inspired by a meme/creepy pasta and nothing more than that. We are not making a joke about anyone or trying to damage the public image of any person or entity with this short game. Also this game is inspired solely by a meme/creepy pasta which gained popularity in the past month called "AYUWOKI", which is at the same time inspired by an animatronic figure. So if you are a sensitive person we DO NOT recommend you to play this game. Escape the Ayuwoki is a free game that can be downloaded from itch.io on both PC and Mac. Overall progression of the game changed, now you have to follow a linear path to be able to exit the mansion, completing tasks and finding items.Ī great thanks to all the people involved in the new update!ĭISCLAIMER: This game contains very gory scenes, blood, bodies, flickering lights, etc. Main menu music changed for audio track made by Natal Castro.

I’d probably add a #10700 LEGO Green Baseplate for $8 apiece. So far, we are at $120 for trimmings, which brings me to about $610. The LEGO Classic sets have a paucity of windows, so let’s say I spend $40 for them on Bricklink. Here’s the one place where I might feel the need to “cheat” a bit and head over to to buy some windows and doors, both for houses and stores. The #11005 LEGO Classic Creative Fun set (see below) with 900 pieces for $40 is probably the best price per piece of the lot. I would certainly buy at least one generic LEGO Classic brick box to have pieces to build an original building and to have random pieces available for extra walls and street furniture. Fourteen adults and child minifig can help populate my town and add a little action. The set goes for $40 but seems to be available on sale these days from several retailers. I’d be very tempted to buy one of the LEGO City People Packs, perhaps the #60202 LEGO City People Pack Outdoor Adventures (see below). I’m budgeting around $140 for stores, so at full price, we are at $485 total. The #41344 LEGO Friends Andrea’s Accessories Store ($30), and #41362 LEGO Friends Heartlake City Supermarket ($30) are other smaller stores that are good choices and might fit the budget. I’d probably also add the #31077 LEGO Creator Modular Sweet Surprises ($40) to add some color and have the beginnings of a real shopping district. This would probably be the biggest building in my proposed town. Now, let’s add the #31097 LEGO Creator Townhouse Pet Shop & Café ($80), which is the big LEGO Creator 3-in-1 building currently available. Depending on which sets I end up getting and at what price, the total for some basic houses should be around $75. The #31078 LEGO Creator Treehouse Treasures ($30) is a tempting set – if I remove the tree parts and convert the structure into a regular house. So, I probably wouldn’t purchase this set. I like the colors of the #41369 LEGO Friends Mia’s House, but $70 for a house seems expensive, especially since I can’t use the three mini-doll figures, and even the animals are not really compatible with Lego City. Neither is what I really want in a house but both are at decent price points, and I could rebuild them a little to make them look more like a conventional house. The #31081 LEGO Creator Modular Skate House ($40) is another option. It is no longer available directly from LEGO, but you can purchase it through Amazon or via local shops. The #31080 LEGO Creator Modular Winter Vacation ($35) might be a good place to begin. (The vehicle design from this same set could be used in another color as a utility repair truck of some kind.) At full price (hopefully, we can do better), the total price so far is $270.ĭepending on what kind of deals I can get, and if I have some money left, I might buy the #60212 LEGO City Barbecue Burn Out at $10 (see below) to have an already designed mini-scene. (And no, I wouldn’t spend $100 on the #60216 LEGO City Fire Brigade.) The above-mentioned three big sets would also give me several vehicles and a medivac helicopter. As far as police stations, I would go with a standard station like the #60141 LEGO City Police Station for $100, not something like jungle police, forest police, or air police. The #60215 LEGO City Fire Station is $70, and the #60204 LEGO City Hospital is $100 at full price. You should be able to get these around $250 total. Every town needs and every child wants a police station around, a fire station and a hospital. BUILDING A LEGO CITY – FIRST ROUND PICK OF SETS I’m also limiting myself to sets that I can currently buy at major retailers like Target and Wal-Mart, as well as at official LEGO stores and the Online LEGO Shop. I’ll also assume that I can purchase LEGO sets at 20% off the regular list price, which brings the total value of the sets to about $620 ($620 – 20% = $496) and $1,240 ($1,240 – 20% = $992). For this exercise, I will assume that I would be starting from scratch, owning no LEGO sets at all. Am I the only adult fan of LEGO who is on a budget? Am I the only parent who has to have a constraint on my children’s presents? I thought it would be an interesting exercise to see what kind of LEGO city one could build these days with a budget of $500 or even $1,000.

"There is not a conversation you have here, where I am not asked to handicap the election," Atlantic Council CEO Fred Kempe told CNBC at the meeting. Trump's surge in the polls and his dominance in the primaries was a constant theme of discussions at the World Economic Forum. This marked a shift from what the Blackstone CEO said in 2022, when he announced, "it is time for the Republican party to turn to a new generation of leaders and I intend to support one of them in the presidential primaries." "I think we have to see what happens," Schwarzman said when asked whether he's going to back Trump again in 2024. Steve Schwarzman, CEO of Blackstone and a past Trump supporter, did not rule out when asked by CNBC at the elite conference in Davos, Switzerland, that he will go back to support the former president just two years after he said he was looking for alternatives. In 2020, Wall Street executives combined to donate more than $74 million to helping Biden defeat Trump. "The next question is, 'will Wall Street work to stop him in the general by supporting Biden?'" "I think most of them have resigned themselves to a Trump primary win and don't want to throw good money after bad trying to stop him, said Charles Myers, a former vice chairman at investment bank Evercore and a Biden fundraiser. Jeffrey Yass, a co-founder of trading firm Susquehanna International Group, has donated more than $15 million to PACs opposing Trump, according to data from the nonpartisan OpenSecrets. Out of more than $47 million donated by those working in the securities and investment industry toward Republicans so far this cycle, almost a third of that total has come from just one financial executive contributing to political action committees seeking to defeat Trump in the primary. That might be a good time for them to head back to Trump's corner. Others planning to intend the event privately conceded that if Haley struggled in New Hampshire, they believed the primary would be over for her. An outside effort "will not work against Trump," one of DeSantis' Wall Street fundraisers said. Others are sitting on the sidelines and refuse to fund anti-Trump efforts that would effectively support Biden, others said. The outreach appears to have worked: Many of those financiers are seriously considering whether, or have already decided, to help raise money for Trump over Biden, these people said. Ambassador Nikki Haley finished third in Iowa, but comes into New Hampshire with a solid base of support, although her path to the nomination remains murky at best.Īfter DeSantis came in a distant second to Trump in Iowa last week, several of DeSantis' Wall Street backers received calls from Trump allies, including from the former president's son, Donald Trump Jr., and Jets owner Woody Johnson, essentially recruiting them to Trump's team, according to people familiar with the matter. Ron DeSantis dropped out of the 2024 presidential race and endorsed Trump on Sunday after he was walloped during the Iowa caucuses. Personal Loans for 670 Credit Score or Lowerįlorida Gov.
