Drawdown Labs recently released “ A Drawdown-Aligned Framework for the Gaming Industry,” a set of recommendations on how gaming companies help solve climate change through not just actions to reduce their emissions but by encouraging gamers to embrace environmental responsibility during gameplay. And with more than 3 billion gamers worldwide, game developers and the data centers they rely on need to make rapid changes to reduce their footprint. That’s about the same greenhouse gas impact as the annual emissions from 5 million cars. gamers generate 24 million tons of CO2 into the atmosphere annually, according to a 2019 study by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. ![]()

![]() ![]() Soon, artists were experimenting with establishing a sequence of images to create a narrative. These publications utilized illustrations as a means of commenting on political and social issues, such illustrations becoming known as cartoons in the 1840s. As printing techniques developed, due to the technological advances of the industrial revolution, magazines and newspapers were established. His work, A Rake's Progress (1732–33), was composed of a number of canvases, each reproduced as a print, and the eight prints together created a narrative. William Hogarth is often identified in histories of the comics form. It was also during this period that the speech bubble was developed as a means of attributing dialogue. Early printed material concentrated on religious subjects, but through the 17th and 18th centuries they began to tackle aspects of political and social life, and also started to satirize and caricature. The invention of the printing press, allowing movable type, established a separation between images and words, the two requiring different methods in order to be reproduced. For instance, in Lucas Cranach the Elder's Paradise different scenes of the Biblical story are shown in the same painting: on the front, God is admonishing the couple for their sin in the background to the right are shown the earlier scenes of Eve's creation from Adam's rib and of their being tempted to eat the forbidden fruit on the left is the later scene of their expulsion from Paradise.Ĭubist paintings share characteristics with sequential art, with the main difference being that the images are not juxtaposed but repeated over themselves in different poses sharing some shapes. Painting can also be a common ground for sequential art. It looks in some ways like a cartoon, as the story unrolls-two combatants (the Anglo-Saxon English, led by Harold Godwinson, recently crowned as King of England (before that a powerful earl), and the Normans, led by William the Conqueror) fight in 1066 a battle over the control of what was then England. The misleadingly named Bayeux Tapestry (it is actually an embroidery) tells the story of the Norman conquest of England. In some cases tapestry was used as a medium to tell stories. You do not range over the surface, as a painter might while working on a canvas. Weaving has a direction-that is, you begin at one point and proceed, by interlacing threads, to another point. One of its basic characteristics is that it is woven, rather than embroidered. Several pre-Columbian codices produced by the Mayan and Mixtec cultures are clear examples of sequential art. Since only five codices of Mayan culture are known to survive to this day, the major sources of pre-Columbian sequentian art are paintings on vessels and plates. Rome's Trajan's Column, completed in 113 AD, is an early surviving example of a narrative told through the use of sequential pictures. Greek artists used to use friezes and vases as media to tell stories-an art form now called sequential sculpture. In fact the proto-writing and the early alphabets, such as the Egyptian Canaanite alphabet, Chinese and Phoenician, also make clear references to their evolution from wall painting. Egyptian friezes made more accurate, methodical and organized depiction of their lifestyle through this same medium.Įgyptian hieroglyphs codified the images into repeatable and easier to reproduce symbols. ![]() Wall painting is the earliest form of graphic communication it pre-dates written communication and its earliest example are found in caves. Wall paintings and hieroglyphsĪll the forms of communications since the dawn of human intellect has always served to transmit human experience. Some of the earliest examples are the cave paintings, Egyptian hieroglyphics and paintings and pre-Columbian American picture manuscripts, which were recurrent media of artistic expression. Sequential art predates comics by millennia. Scott McCloud, another comics artist, elaborated the explanation further, in his books Understanding Comics and Reinventing Comics. Eisner analyzed this form into four elements: design, drawing, caricature, and writing. The term "sequential art" was coined in 1985 by comics artist Will Eisner in his book Comics and Sequential Art. ![]() ![]() ![]() Many bad boys, including Pinocchio and Lampwick, are taken to the island via stagecoach. The moral behind Pleasure Island (or Il Paese dei Balocchi, as it was called in the original) is that little boys who scoff at education and moral codes set forth by their parents, preachers and authority figures and will engage in "jackass" behavior instead, such as fighting, vandalism and underage drinking are often destined to grow up to become men who have no option to make a living except through backbreaking manual labor, and there are plenty of people in the world, such as the Coachman, who will take advantage of that. In Italy, where the original story was written, the donkey is a symbol of "stupidity". It is apparent that the curse can only work on transforming the boys while they’re on the island, as after Pinocchio escaped, he underwent no further transformation. It also remains unknown how some of the boys are able to retain their voices while others aren't, though it possibly depends on the severity of their misdeeds. It appears to work slower for some individuals as both Lampwick and Pinocchio showed no effects of the curse until long after the other boys possibly due to the fact they relaxed for a while playing pool. ![]() There appears to be no way to stop it once the transformation begins and appears to be permanent, as even remorse for their actions doesn't reverse the effects and Pinocchio's donkey ears, tail, and bray in his laugh did not disappear until he was later revived by the Blue Fairy. The exact way the curse is placed over the island or how it turns the boys into donkeys is unknown, though it appears that it only takes effect once the boys have committed enough bad behavior. The few donkeys who retain their voices however are not shipped with the others and are presumably kept by the Coachman until they too completely lose their voices or are possibly disposed of to prevent them from warning other victims who come to the island. Those who can no longer talk are stripped of their remaining clothes and thrown into crates and then taken back to the mainland via ferry and are finally sold by the Coachman into hard labor in salt mines, circuses, and possibly other places for money. The donkeys are then rounded up by the Coachman and his minions and inspected. The boys first grow donkey ears, then a tail, their head turns furry with donkey hair, their laughing becomes braying, their hands and feet become hooves, they lose the ability to talk (though some donkeys like Alexander can still talk), and then finally go on all fours. Once the boys have spent enough time being bad, they begin to succumb to a horrible curse that exists over the island (presumably placed via ancient dark magic rituals by the Coachman himself) which turns them into donkeys due to making complete "jackasses" of themselves and behaving like destructive animals. However, unknown to the boys, Pleasure Island actually serves as a trap. Essentially, the island is designed to be the perfect paradise for bad boys. The boys are also free of the law and any parents or cops who could stop them from being naughty. Food, alcohol, and tobacco are freely available on the island. The Coachman runs the island and takes all the bad boys he has collected (or others he hires for the job just like Honest John and Gideon) from various towns and villages to the island, where the boys are free to do whatever they please, such as smoking, drinking alcohol, fighting, wrecking the place, and other deeds that good children wouldn't do. ![]() It is implied to be illegal and extremely notorious, as hinted by J. According to the Coachman, it is specialized to serve " stupid, little boys" who are disobedient and play hooky from school.

![]() ![]() It has been modified with pipe lagging to prevent pups crawling away… My set up is built on a stepladder, with a landing pad made from a cardboard box lid, a hot water bottle and a tea towel (see photo, right). The idea is to place the pup somewhere where the mother bat can find it and can easily land near to her pup to collect it. We have been using this system in Northumberland this year with great success. Kit Wood, from Lancashire, has spent many years trialling a method to get baby bats collected by their mothers. Young bats are extremely hard to hand rear successfully, and bats do a far better job of raising their pups than bat carers. Go back to the Bat Removal page, or learn about bats in the attic with my Bats in the Attic guide.As a bat carer I get several calls a year for baby bats that have been found out of their roosts. If you keep away from ALL bats, whether they appear healthy or not, you can't put yourself in a potentially dangerous situation. A bat that is out of the roost (or awake) during daylight hours is usually a sign that something is wrong – the animal is sick and has been kicked out of its home. A perfectly healthy bat can be infected with the rabies virus (in its early stages) without displaying any symptoms whatsoever. The moral of this story is that you should keep your distance from bats. Once again, these symptoms would be difficult to spot in a bat, unless that bat was physically lying on the floor in front of you. With the exception of the white fungus growing on the animals (which you may or may not be able to see), there are few other symptoms, apart from lethargy, lack of appetite, etc. If the bat were suffering from another condition, such as white-nose syndrome, early symptoms might not be so easily spot. The latter will be quite difficult to spot as most people wouldn't be aware of what a bat's non-glazed-over eyes would look like. Other rabies symptoms in bats include an overly aggressive nature (bats would normally flee from humans, not attack), struggling to fly, appearing confused or disorientated (a bat wouldn't usually be on the floor, struggling to fly, not knowing where it is going during the day), and glazed-over or blank eyes. It might not have rabies, but rabies-infected bats are known to be less fearful of daylight and humans (rabid behavior). In fact, when bats DO come out during the day, it's probably because the bat is sick. If you attempt to handle that bat on the floor, you are taking a chance with your own health, putting yourself in the direct line of fire for rabies and other potentially deadly conditions.īats rarely come out during the day – they are nocturnal animals, only coming out at night, around an hour or two after the sun has gone down. The other bats in the colony won't want the injured or sick bat to stay around for long, not when there is a chance that she (it's probably a female in your attic or building) can infect the other members. If you see a dead or sick bat on the floor, there's a good chance that the bat has been kicked out of the roost. Disease is a very common problem – rabies, white-nose syndrome, and plenty more have all been linked to the flying mammal, but bats that show symptoms of deadly or dangerous diseases aren't allowed to stay in the roost for long. There are a number of things that can lead to a bat becoming sick, injured, or dead. Need bat removal in your hometown? We service over 500 USA locations!

Long, straight hair can have more “block coloring” options, while she would recommend more of a “highlight” or “balayage” look for a client with short curly hair. As for texture, she will often guide a client into different placement options based on their natural texture. "Navy blue may be very strong for someone with fair skin, so adding peek-a-boo panels may be a better option," Marshall says, noting darker and richer skin tones can definitely go a bit bolder with this look. Plus, the right color placement can change the entire look. Secondly, the color lasts a long time-for the same reason that the pigments here are deeper and are less likely to fade fast. The first is that it's easy to achieve for darker hair colors: While hair must be lifted first, due to the depth of the pigments, Marshall says the hair doesn ’t need to be as light as it would be for past pastel trends. ![]() Marshall says navy blue is a great idea for two reasons. Going navy blue means hair first has to be lifted and pre-toned to remove the warmth that hair naturally brings up, but that doesn't mean it's a high-intensity hair color. In other words, make sure you're ready for the commitment. This temporary hair color glides on your hair so easily, leaving a major color payoff.īut if you're set on going all the way, expert celebrity colorist Michael Casey of Eliut Salon shared his most important tip when it comes to dyeing your hair a bold color like blue: "If you want pastel, green, or blue hues, you need to pre-lighten your hair to a very pale blonde first and then deposit the color. These colors fade very fast, so you will need to spend a lot of time refreshing the bright colors," he explains. FYI: If you don't want a permanent color change right now, try Splat Hair Chalk ($10) in its navy blue shade. We have to say, there's just something so undeniably cool (literally and figuratively) about this kind of midnight blue hair. Each shade she makes is unique to the individual client, though in general, she usually mixes deep blue and black tones together to achieve the look. Lisa Marshall at Davide Hair Studio in New York describes navy blue hair as a deeper, more muted blue, calling it a fantasy color. The exact hue we're digging at the moment is navy blue. Oh, to be a hair unicorn: What a fun life to live.

So far as anyone can tell, there are six available endings in Elden Ring. How Many Endings Can You Unlock in Elden Ring? In the interest of getting that discussion going, though, here’s a look at our what we think Elden Ring‘s endings mean and, more importantly, how to unlock them. These intentionally ambiguous finales are meant to be discussed, dissected, and debated. Part of the joy of playing a FromSoftware game involves learning to love occasionally being confused, and that’s certainly true when it comes to explaining, or even talking about, the game’s endings. So far as that goes, I’ll warn you right now that Elden Ring offers relatively few definitive narrative answers, and those answers that are buried in the game likely won’t be unearthed for months to come. ![]() That also means that there is a good chance you’ll reach the game’s various endings and have no idea what any of them mean or how you even managed to arrive at them in the first place. ![]() While Elden Ring clearly separates itself from other FromSoftware titles through its massive open-world filled with adventures and secrets, the game does feature that same brand of obtuse storytelling and complicated lore that helped make FromSoftware’s other titles (most notably the Dark Souls series) famous.

This stands for "blacklight".īlacklight sources may be specially designed fluorescent lamps, mercury-vapor lamps, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), lasers, or incandescent lamps. These tubes are made for use in " bug zapper" insect traps, and are identified by the industry designation "BL". A second type of lamp produces ultraviolet but does not have the filter material, so it produces more visible light and has a blue color when operating. Blacklight lamps which have this filter have a lighting industry designation that includes the letters "BLB". ![]() One type of lamp has a violet filter material, either on the bulb or in a separate glass filter in the lamp housing, which blocks most visible light and allows through UV, so the lamp has a dim violet glow when operating. The violet glow of a black light is not the UV light itself, but visible light that escapes being filtered out by the filter material in the glass envelope.Ī blacklight, also called a UV-A light, Wood's lamp, or ultraviolet light, is a lamp that emits long-wave ( UV-A) ultraviolet light and very little visible light. ![]() ![]() But as I said I don't think it should just stop at 7 like I think the Verse given how Looney it can be CAN expand further then it is.
