![]() Okay, well now when I add my vector I don't just get a smaller or larger vector I actually get a vector that at a different angle, at a different direction. Okay and here I'm paddling my canoe 4 meters per second East but the river is flowing South and it's flowing 3 meters per second South. So now let's take my canoe and now let's say I'm not going up or down the river but I'm going across the river. Okay, now those are pretty straight forward and sometimes you'll see problems like that but vectors often times are not moving either in the same direction or in the counter direction but they're often moving at right angles. So if I subtract 3 from 4 I get 1 meters per second East is my total vector. So my 4 meters per second East is being countered by a vector that's going 3 meters per second West I'll try to be more accurate there and probably it would be right about there. So I'm paddling now not down stream but I'm paddling up stream with the current going against me. Okay it's also pretty easy if I have vectors going in opposite directions, I just subtract the second vector from the first. ![]() Well that's a pretty simple addition problem 4 meters per second East plus 3 meters per second East is 7 meters per second that's my total vector. Let's look at some examples, so I've got my 4 meters per second East and let's say I'm paddling in a canoe 4 meters per second okay and I'm paddling with the current and the current is 3 meters per second East. Vectors can be added or subtracted and if it's in the same plane that's a pretty easy equation. Okay and I'm going to scale so that 40 centimeters is equivalent to 4 meters per second okay. Remember a vector is something that has both magnitude and direction okay so in this case I've got a vector going 4 meters per second East a velocity.

![]() This approach has always left a lot to be desired. In the past, you had to add an asset account and manually adjust the value of your home asset to what you think it might be. It is true that you’ve always been able to track the value of your home or other real estate properties in Banktivity, but it has never been a great solution. One last thing to note: if Dark Mode isn’t your thing, don’t worry, the app still looks great in the Aqua user interface. Although this is strictly a visual feature it shows our commitment to the macOS platform and overall user experience. I hope those screenshots give a sense of how your finances will look in Dark Mode. Check out how nice Banktivity 7 looks in Dark Mode on Mojave:īanktivity credit card register with new and uncleared transactions separated out. The rewards for this hard work have been great. This wasn’t a small undertaking, we put a lot of resources into looking at every screen and restructuring how we bundle our visual assets in the app. We like to support the most recent macOS versions as soon as we are able and I’m thrilled that this year we don’t just support it, but can wholeheartedly embrace it with Dark Mode. Dark Mode is great for so many different uses on your Mac and for many people here at IGG it has become their preferred work environment. When we saw Dark Mode in Mojave, we knew we wanted to support it. Then we have about three months to adopt any of the new features in the operating systems and make sure our apps don’t just break with the new versions. It goes like this: in June at the World Wide Developers Conference Apple gives us a preview of the new features that are coming. So without further ado, let’s jump in explore what is new in version 7! Dark Mode for MojaveĪpple has set up a pretty predictable launch schedule with its new versions of macOS and iOS. Today I’m pleased to announce the immediate availability of Banktivity 7!įor over the past year and a half we’ve been hard at work on bringing you the best version of Banktivity we’ve ever created. Update March 30, 2022: Please visit to get the latest version of Banktivity! We will leave the rest of this article intact for archival purposes. In recent years, however, an extraordinary confluence of factors has allowed an unprecedented number of countries-and people-to achieve rapid income growth. Two centuries of history show that there is nothing automatic about economic development and catch-up. ![]() In this book, Uri Dadush and William Shaw provide the first systematic examination of the long-term implications of this tectonic shift for the international economy and global governance, covering both domestic and international economic policies. The rapid rise of what we used to call the developing world is a defining trend of our time.

Without the ebb and flow of the demands of economy and infrastructure-that I might need more food to keep my soldiers fed, that I should expand east to capitalize on a food tile, that another settlement has a resource I might want-decision fatigue, paradoxically, sets in quickly. It doesn’t cost water to run a pigsty, or food to run an army-which means there’s no sense of whether your army is proportional to your base size until you use it. You essentially ‘purchase’ tiles, with one-off spends, rather than ongoing maintenance, so there’s no sense of scale. ![]() You can build it on top of a ‘food’ tile-but you could also build anything else on top of that ‘food’ tile, and still get that additional food per turn. But there is almost no sense of infrastructure to Punk Wars to push you towards smaller, more immediate plans.Īny resource you exploit is completely independent from another-to build a pigsty garners one food per turn, and nothing else other than building upgrades influences that. In a 4X game, you typically explore, expand, exploit, and-of the most interest to Punk Wars-exterminate. ![]() No matter who you play as, you’re tasked with a fight for total control of the map, by destroying everybody else’s watchtowers-but there’s little to drive you towards that goal, other than ‘this is how you win the game.’ Much like the incohesive style and narrative, the game’s own systems are sparse and disconnected. The Atompunks, morally detached and apparently intent on mass experimentation, ultimately share the same goal of mass extermination as everyone else. The Steampunks similarly evoke early British imperialism, but leave it at some snobby dialogue. I’d struggle to argue that the game would be better for committing to the Dieselpunk’s nazi-inspired imagery, but each faction suffers from the same lack of follow through. Still, the language of rival corporations remains, as if you’re meant to be Steelpunk Inc.Įven within the factions, there’s a disinterest in who-or why-they are. The concept of business parks is explicitly referred to as where “once people moved imaginary things from one place to another, for some reason,” making it clear that this new world has little time for such abstract concepts-lost, along with art and history. For instance, the dieselpunk faction are initially depicted in art with a symbol reminiscent of an iron cross-which is a powerful image to even imply-only for their introductory cutscene to immediately flavor them as only seeking financial dominance, making violent euphemism about red ledgers.Īcross every faction, there’s this odd dissonance where loading screen lore facts will drop in tidbits about “corporate fixers,” but the in-game dialogue only refers to military domination. ![]() As a premise, it’s drenched in style and suggests tricky resource wars-but it doesn’t pull through.ĭespite pulling from heavily aesthetic genres, any sense of thematic cohesion falls apart as you begin a 4X-style campaign. In the face of its failure, four competing factions battle for dominance over a dusty and featureless wasteland, while taking inspiration from the sci-fi ‘punk’ genres-the retrofuturistic Atompunk, the interwar-inspired Dieselpunk, old-fashioned Steampunk and hardware-oriented Steelpunk. In Punk Wars, the world has ended after a war to end all wars that-needless to say-didn’t achieve its goal. ![]() Unlike its competitors, Disk Drill doesn’t use a subscription pricing model, so you don’t have to pay over and over again to keep using it.

Spearmint, Peppermint and Chocolate mint are superior winter survivors, however, orange mint and other more delicate mint varieties are harder to winter over. ![]() I also find that some mints do much better than others. If you were referring to Ajuga reptans, or Bugleweed, then yes, it should over winter as it’s a zone 3 grower. I’m hoping that was a typographical error and that you meant, Bugleweed. You could always test a small planting, if you don’t mind losing it to the winter, should it lose the battle. Scotch Moss is a zone 4 grower – right on the edge of your plants comfort zone. I leave my pot of Rosemary out all summer and bring it in for the winter, but it’s never in the perennial bed. ![]() Lemongrass is classed as a zone 9, strictly a tropical plant, but you might opt for Lemon Balm instead. Mondo grass and Corsican Mint are not going to make it through the winter in Vermont as they are classed for zone 6. Some of the plants you’ve listed are not plants you’ll be able to purchase easily, like the wood violet or the alpine strawberries. I really appreciate your enthusiasm for someone professing a lack of gardening knowledge. Thanks for reaching out and for the photos. On my list for wildflowers (again, okay for cats and not for mosquitos): lemon grass, catmint, rosemary, basil, bee balm, mint, sage, buglewood. On my list (both cat safe and mosquito deterring) for ground cover: white sedum, sweet woodruff, wood violets, alpine strawberry, elfin thyme, woolly thyme, creeping thyme, creeping phlox, mondo grass, scotch moss, moss phlox, corsican mint. NOTE: I AM NOT A GARDNER and have NOT A CLUE as to what I'm doing. Our back yard is northern and we just removed 45 trees that were way to close to our house (we milled them for use next year!). Wester area gets good sun most of the day but shady a lot of trees. In my research I found plenty of options but I'm not sure what is "native" to Southern VT. We also own two cats so we need it safe for them. Doing so is giving us the opportunity to remove the grass and instead install native wildflowers, ground cover, and plantings. Needing no fertilization or frequent watering and with an ability to withstand both hot, dry conditions or chilly weather, elfin creeping thyme plant is often a prized selection for xeriscaping, a landscaping plan that requires no irrigation.Īlthough the leaves are flavorful and aromatic, the tiny 1/8 to 3/8 inch (3 to 9 mm.) leaves are rather a pain to pick, so most people use other varieties of common thyme for their culinary herb uses and allow elfin thyme to play the role of an ornamental.Hi - I'm in zone 4b (West Dover, VT) and we had to re-grade our property due to standing water/drainage issues. These hardy and forgiving herbs adapt to a variety of climatic and environmental conditions, even able to survive cold winter weather and sustained frost. The care of elfin thyme isn’t complicated. When growing elfin thyme, the plants require at least five hours of sun per day and should be spaced 6 inches (15 cm.) apart. Shaded areas of growing elfin thyme will tend to clump more while sun exposure encourages the thyme to become more of a ground cover, spreading to a width of about 4 to 8 inches (10 to 20 cm.). Growing elfin thyme is hardy to USDA hardiness zone 4 and should be planted in full sun and well draining soil, although it will also adapt to shadier areas. These little guys are adaptable to foot traffic, even fairly heavy foot traffic, and continue to spread while being tromped on, filling the air with their heavenly scent. The slightly fuzzy or haired foliage of a growing elfin thyme works well among stepping stones, trailing through a rock garden and even as a forgiving substitute for grassy lawns. Native to Europe, this little creeping variety of thyme is not only drought and heat tolerant, but deer and rabbit resistant, making it a lovely option for a natural garden landscape. In cold climates, this little herb is deciduous, while in milder regions, the plant will retain its foliage year round.įlowers are borne upon the fragrant green to grayish blue foliage in summer and are extremely attractive to bees. This nugget of information does not completely answer the question of, “What is elfin thyme?” Elfin creeping thyme plant ( Thymus serpyllum) is a low growing, one to two inches (2.5-5 cm.) tall herbaceous perennial sub shrub with a dense mounding habit. ![]() Keep reading for information on elfin thyme care. Elfin creeping thyme plant is as cherubic as its name implies, with small glossy, green aromatic leaves and teeny weensy purple or pink blossoms. ![]() Imports both stock and add-on airports in the FSX and FS9 BGL format.ĭisplays an accurate representation of all airport elements in Flight Simulator, both in top-down and 3D views.

Nothing groundbreaking here and it will not constantly drip-feed you content, forcing you to play everyday, but it was definitely worth the time and effort as I easily spent over 60 hours looting and shooting. I still stand with Outriders being a great looter shooter in it’s own right. The developers are not treating it as a live-service games in the veins of Destiny 2 or Warframe, but it’s good to see them support the game further and the expansion certainly hints that this franchise has a future. With just shy of being 20-minutes long, the presentation breathes new life to the looter shooter. You can have a look at the latest Outriders Broadcast via Youtube. A short teaser was revealed but didn’t reveal much, but it’s slated for a 2022 release. The folks at People Can Fly also teased Outriders first expansion called Worldslayer.

Here’s a quick rundown of what to expect from the update: Four new Expeditions with mini-stories ![]() The New horizon update is a pleasant surprise as it launches this week, November 16. For the most part, all of the biggest issues have been resolved as they are now comfortable in looking forward, and it’s a pretty hefty announcement for fans. ![]() People Can Fly have been mostly silent with regards to the future of Outriders as most of the updates done were focused on addressing the various issues players experienced when the game went ive. They also announced a new expansion called Worldslayer slated for a 2022 launch. Developer People Can Fly and Square Enix hosted a brand new live broadcast for their looter shooter Outriders, which revealed the free New Horizon update coming on November 16, adding new Expeditions and a series of changes based on player feedback, balancing, and more since launch. That gives a final weight of 5.7lb for the entry-level semi-auto rifle, which is pretty stunning if we’re honest. The American Tactical Imports Omni Hybrid Maxx upper receivers and matched lowers can be bought separately from American Tactical, too, and there’s an AAC Blackout version at a similarly affordable price. Pretty much everything on this firearm that can be a composite material, is a composite material. And we kind of do too…Īmerican Tactical reckon they have torture tested this fiber-reinforced polymer rifle to death, and it’s every bit as strong and reliable as aluminum. But the critics love this fresh take from American Tactical Imports. This stock black, optic ready ATI Omni Hybrid Maxx has polymer receivers. So that’s how a plastic AR-15 is making a big splash. And in a time of wildly fluctuating prices, this is one of a special few that has stayed around the $500 mark consistently. The ATI Omni Hybrid Maxx P4 is one of the new arrivals on the low price AR-15 scene. Now it churns out flat top upper receivers, gas blocks, gas tubes and matched receivers for 300BLK and 5.56, as well as bigger cartridges. Value for money lies at the heart of what it does and Radical Fiirearms has built a devoted following. ![]() They include the 450 Bushmaster, and increasingly popular 300 Blackout. They have a complete upper assembly for you in a variety of intense bullets. You can source an upper from Radical Firearms and strap it to your old lower for an entirely new kind of buzz. It even turns up in some forms of competitive shooting. The Texas company makes most of the top rated Radical Firearms AR-15 in-house, and has built a formidable reputation. And it’s an AR 15 for sale, cheap, with a very solid reputation. I mean this optic ready Radical Firearms SOCOM is not military grade really, but it is good. So you can doll up your Radical Firearms RF-15 with tacti-cool weapon lights and other shenanigans. It has M4 receivers, a SOCOM Chrome Moly Vanadium steel 16 incher up front, slimline M-LOK handguard and M-Lok rail. When it’s the former, this popular rifle is a bargain and you should buy it immediately. The price point is bouncing from $430 to $630. This is one of the the best AR-15 under $500 right now, when it is under $500. But here are the best AR-15 rifles for less than $500, and more… We got carried away, is basically what we’re saying. We do have a $650 cut off, but then we carried on with a few more expensive recommendations. So we started with $450 rifles, and then we included a few around the $550 mark, then $600. It’s just life right now that some old favorites are more expensive. We had to stretch the budget in these troubled times too for the best AR-15 rifles. Let’s get you on that glorious road to success right now, with the semi-auto rifle for $500 that does the job you want. Then progressively talk yourself into more expensive weapons like the best AR-15 rifles for $1000. The differences between the best cheap AR-15 under $500 and something far more exotic are smaller than you think. You don’t need to spend the Earth on an AR-15.
