obey me! headcanons for witches because we don't know shit about them
most important thing: they're not the typical arrogant girl trope you find in otome games who tries to take mc down
actually, they're super nice!! just like normal people, they all have different personalities
most of them are bubbly, confident and flirty, but they like to share their confidence and optimism with others !!!
when mc first arrives, they're cautious around them, mostly due to not knowing anything about them – maybe they are rude and will try showing off living in the house of lamentation
they quickly see that this isn't true and begin opening up to them
even though witches are always trying to charm everyone, they won't be envious of mc for being on good terms with the brothers
they would feel pity for mc for always being around boys and not having any girl friends, so they!! become friends!!!
will give advice to mc, especially if they are the shy type
witches hype each other up, so they will support mc a lot and REFUSE to be enemies because of men
they love fashion and make up! always trying to somehow change the RAD uniform to make themselves more unique
devildom may be advanced in a lot of fields, but the human world's make up and make up techniques are way better
so when mc returned from london with some gifts, the other witches are STUNNED by the make up mc got for them
because witches have a witch form like demons do a demon form, they will rarely transform
because the witch form doesn't really stand out as much as the demon form, they're trying to spice it up a bit even in their normal form
for that, they use fake small wings to wear around! sometimes fake horns or long nails are used as well!
because witches will have default black hair, they're always dying their hair all sorts of colors
it's basically a routine to change the hair color ever two to four weeks, depending on the mood
will show mc the fashion of devildom
will get very close to mc, seeing them as one of their own, and cheering them up to end up with one of the brothers lol
once the year of the exchange program finishes, they will probably cry their eyes out
mc will promise to see them again soon, but they will just cry harder
whenever they miss mc, they will meet and send shooting stars up the sky for mc to see and to remember them
once they meet again... they for sure won't let go again
i really really really hate those mean girls in anime who are always used to get them to be a rival for the mc. i rarely meet girls who put love before friends, and i think that even though witches aren't pure, they know the importance of friendship, especially because the stronger they are together, the stronger are their powers.
i really hope obey me! will include some girls in the future lessons, and i hope the fandom will accept them as friends, and not rivals!!
also this is the first headcanon i ever wrote, i just randomly thought of it as i was stuck in school lol. hope u enjoy uwu

Plague Inc Evoled Review
Plague Inc. Evolved may be a game wherever you are taking over a doubtless deadly illness to extinguish humanity. the sport relies on a series of games referred to as Pandemic that became widespread during a flash game from 2008. but Plague Iraqi National Congress. Evolved took the novel plan from there and developed a rather attention-grabbing and deeper game.
 When you begin a game of Plague Iraqi National Congress. Evolved you initially need to opt for a illness sort, these vary from bacterium, viruses, all the high to nano-viruses and bio-weapons. every one has slightly totally different rules and talents. every form of illness is given a novel special ability, and a few (four out of the eleven, that I’ll decision the special types) act radically totally different.
 You then name your virus. I found a number of clever selections, my personal favorite was “Twilight Fan Fictions.” however something is used, it’s simply a reputation for the sport to use to consult with it. From there the sport really starts transferral you to the most map.
 Unsurprisingly, the most map is that the customary form of the globe. you have got six out of the seven continents (no Antarctica) and varied countries. Some countries ar obvious, like North America that is Canada, us, and Mexico. However, alternative countries ar mixed in or forgotten regarding altogether. Central Europe may be a single place, Portugal is a component of Espana and continent that is fifty four countries within the world is regarding ten within the game. These ar clearly selections to feature to the gameplay (imagine Risk with all 195 countries), however it’s a shame that such a large amount of countries ar forgotten here.
 However, every country’s borders ar thus sharp that there’s a transparent border wherever the countries ar. It’s odd to examine the us fully overrun by a illness next to Canada that features a few spots on that. the rationale is that the countries ar delineated on the map however the placement of “sick people” isn't on a grid thus spreading of the illness is additional supported hidden arithmetic instead of a logical progression. The sharpness of the borders feels rather awkward now and then, particularly once a country’s borders ar open and no infected individuals appear to be going into fully healthy countries.
 Once the player reaches the most map, they're allowed to pick a beginning country, and also the illness starts to unfold there. The gameplay invariably starts slowly, typically taking a number of days to urge going, tho' the sport permits 3 speeds for progression, I found myself selecting the quickest speed and pausing after I wished to try to to one thing, as there’s a great deal of time period in between events that need action.
 One piece the sport will modification from the initial construct is whereas watching for the infection to unfold, bubbles can seem which will be popped for deoxyribonucleic acid points. These occur once a replacement country is appropriated or once enough time has passed, the player is given one thing to try to to whereas they wait and honestly, it unbroken Pine Tree State engaged within the game rather than pondering alternative games I might be enjoying.
 These deoxyribonucleic acid points additionally are available in overtime because the world gets infected (or killed) and that they ar a part of the core of the sport. There’s not Associate in Nursing infinite range of them, and there ar very little items which will increase the amount that are available in, however the sport isn’t terribly clear the way to boost them. It looks the additional severe a illness is that the additional points you may gain.
 DNA points is used for one in all 3 things. you'll be able to pay them on transmission enhancements, that makes the illness unfold higher, faster, or in several ways that. you'll be able to use them to urge new symptoms for your illness, which might facilitate unfold however will increase the severity of the illness, that causes it to urge noticed . Finally, you'll be able to additionally purchase resistances, that is crucial as a result of the cold or medicine in made countries can stop the illness.
 The upgrades ar the key to the sport, however sadly the upgrades are one in all the constraints of the sport. A bacterium and {a virus|an epidemic|a plague|an outbreak|an endemic|a scourge|a pandemic|a deadly illness|a virulent disease|a pestilence} ar differing kinds of disease. rather than being distinctive dieseases, they need a similar upgrades. a similar ways that of spreading, and also the same resistance. they are doing have one distinctive ability, the bacterium will gain a far better resistance and also the virus will change quicker, however, this doesn’t transform the sport. virtually each virus has a similar sorts of transmissions, same symptoms and same resistances with one special ability. i discussed four special sorts of illness on top of, and 2 of the four operate in similar ways that with a special list of symptoms, and 2 of the four ar distinctive experiences that I’ll bit on later.
There are genes you'll be able to opt for once you discovered your illness. These genes ar unfastened by beating the most game multiple times. they permit you to realize bonuses, like additional deoxyribonucleic acid once sound specific bubbles, or ability to unfold higher in wet countries, or additional ship based mostly transmissions. {you will|you'll|you'll be able to} grind these genes out otherwise you can collect them as you play the sport.
 There’s a great deal of those genes, and that i was solely able to collect thirty % of them in fifteen hours of gameplay, however overall they appear to alter the sport a touch.
 That is one in all the large problems I even have with the sport. Genes appear to alter the sport a touch however I don’t acumen abundant as expected. the very fact is that whereas the upgrades and genes tend to be a similar, there are not any stats. I’m unable to understand specifically what proportion of a gain the cold resistance or the bacteria’s special resistance can provide. the sport solely provides alittle bar chart of Infectiousness, Severity, and morbidity every of those ar valuable stats, however there ar such a large amount of alternative stats that ar hinted at. “Difficulty to cure”, “Resistances”, even “Infectiousness level to the precise form of countries” ar all vital stats and also the game doesn’t provides a stat screen or any info on what proportion more durable it'll be to cure a illness, for example.
 Maybe this was done to avoid the concept of “Min-Maxing” the sport, however this is often a technique game. Players ought to apprehend specifically however each bit can have an effect on the top result. If they wished to avoid metagaming, they selected the incorrect genre, in my opinion, to try to to that in.
 The other chance is that the developers were afraid the numbers would mean nothing that may be a valid concern. Associate in Nursing eight in cold resistance is just getting to confuse individuals, but obtaining Associate in Nursing eight in cold resistance versus a nine in cold resistance is a very important distinction and it might facilitate to differentiate items, still as get a far better understanding what every alternative will.
 I’m unsure why the stats aren’t clearly expressed for the kind of individuals WHO would use them, however it’s one thing that bothers Pine Tree State. It can also build the sport more durable to win as you don’t apprehend what you’re shopping for or the way to quantify 2 selections. The community appear to suppose creating the illness “hard to cure” isn’t an honest alternative, however it’s a guess, not a measurement of that upgrade.
 Ultimately there ar extremely 2 sorts of winning the sport. There’s the hiding form of winning, wherever the illness stays hidden till it infects everybody then at that time becomes super devastating typically killing the globe before the cure will extremely be started. there's additionally a quicker burn, wherever the illness can gain symptoms to extend its infectiousness however avoids major analysis and outpaces the cure.
 There’s another issue here, and it’s that the tutorial teaches you the second path. However, the primary illness you get extremely has to use a hiding vogue. the sport doesn’t appear to show you hiding, and a replacement player WHO doesn’t search something can doubtless fail variety of times till he’s forced to seem it up.
 The hiding plan is absolutely attention-grabbing for the diseases, however the very fact that the sport doesn’t provide the player the tools to essentially perceive what’s happening, and offers the player such a tough form of illness 1st makes it a frustrating learning method.
 Once the player has learned these tools the sport is best, however it’s a painful method that the sport ought to have tried to avoid, or a minimum of hinted at the way to properly play the sport, instead of dropping the player within the deep finish and creating the belief that he’ll swim.
 However learning hiding on the primary illness, the player is forced to be told the incorrect vogue. hiding is simpler to win for a few diseases, however it’s slow and dangerous, particularly if you overspend in transmission. hiding loses effectiveness as you go up the difficulties, each in getting to additional advanced sorts and actual issue levels within the game. therefore the lessons that the player should learn ultimately additionally should be unlearned shortly subsequently.
 The game itself is additionally annoyingly tough. The goal is to eradicate all the humans. the difficulty is there ar a number of moves that the humans will use to win. the primary is there’s a cure being engineered and if it’s completed, the sport is over. this is often Associate in Nursing annoying loss and also the solely actual thanks to lose, the others solely build it not possible to win till the cure is finished. The minute the cure reaches 100%, it starts being distributed, and you have got a number of moments left within the game. the difficulty is that the distribution is quick and also the person to urge cured has created you lose the sport as a result of if somehow the cure doesn’t get distributed on the far side him, one living person causes you to unable to kill all the humans on the world.
 Another issue is that you simply additionally won't be able to reach Kalaallit Nunaat, or New island, if they closed down the port. If this happens you’re out of luck. There’s a renowned acculturation regarding the initial game Pandemic and Madagascar closing down the ports. In Plague Iraqi National Congress. Evolved, it’s Kalaallit Nunaat. The acculturation isn’t as guaranteed (as it’s easier to hiding round the globe) but you continue to ar forced to use the boats to succeed in Kalaallit Nunaat, and make sure you reach there before you get too dangerous, otherwise you have got lost.
 You also may break a population. If you don’t have enough infected individuals otherwise you kill them too quick, or if the country discovered them, they could be killed before they infect enough people, and once more you’ve lost. the sport doesn’t finish directly however unless you're enjoying a state of affairs which will counter that (There could be only 1 or 2 and they’re special cases) the sport is over at that time, you only need to play it bent are aware of it unless you’ve seen it before.
 Now, I’ve lost a number of games wherever I killed over fifty % of the population. I lost one wherever I killed ninety nine % of the globe. The remaining individuals wouldn’t be able to repair the harm I did, nevertheless I got a “Loss”.
 The additional I vie, the additional i spotted that there extremely ought to be a wage scale of ending. something over 65-75 % death ought to be a “win’ whereas the ninety nine and 100% wins might be the next worth (an A versus a D). you'll even limit the unlocking of stuff to 100% if you need to, however winning as a result of you’ve done wonderful against the humans would are welcome.
 Instead, you have got a primary or worst state of affairs. If you kill everybody, you win, congratulations. If you permit even one person alive, you didn’t and you suck. It’s a shame as a result of i favor the construct of the kill everybody plan, I simply hate being told I didn’t kill everybody. that hate isn’t as a result of I unloved losing, I’ve vie enough Dark Souls and alternative games to understand I’m lacking some talent.
 The issue with Plague Iraqi National Congress. Evolved is that i might fail and it doesn’t invariably want my fault. I’m certain it's my fault however extremely it’s a foul feeling of failure while not a sense of what went wrong.

10 Perfect Halloween Costumes so that you can Rock Ones own Campus within 2019
10 Perfect Halloween Costumes so that you can Rock Ones own Campus within 2019
Aren’t nearly everybody tired of the same kind of Halloween costumes?
Many years, you see flocks of witches and vampires, a dozen Supermen, and even more angels. I say enough will do! Let’s lower stale crafting ideas and mix of things upside. Here’s your list of wonderful Halloween costumes to the good ancient basics.
one Scary Clown Instead of a Vampire Unless you undoubtedly are a hardcore Twilight fan, vampires are far better left by themselves for the forseeable future. Instead, work with your cornerstone kit for you to transform on the way to a scary clown. This year, its possible you have at least two awesome remedies. If Pennywise is far more work for you, Joker is the so next best thing. Whether are thereby distinct, really do not need to clear up which clown you are.
minimal payments Wednesday Addams Instead of a few Witch I’ll very own up that witches, unlike vampires, are all over again on the rise. Even now, a basic witch costume is normally tacky in conjunction with obvious. Then again, you could liven it up with a forget on the classic and boost as Saturday Addams. With the new super-hero feature terminate this fall months, use schokohautige dress, dark lipstick, projectile polish, or a wig with two braids to complete the style. Another excellent option will be the latest interpretation of Sabrina. The new undertake the smallish witch is commonly way scarier than the ancient one, plus the costume must not be too hard to help throw with the things in the closet.
3. Royal Type Uniform Rather than a Pussy-cat Democracy is unquestionably and top-quality, but looking at the duo of attractive royal small children go to advanced schooling together along with the first time is extremely much fun. If the well-known photos by using Prince George and Little princess Charlotte in addition to one another in their the college uniform mean you can coo, obtaining a similar the varsity uniform seem to be shouldn’t be much too hard.. It will peek way stylish than other Halloween staple, a Cat’s getup. What is more, with the coming premiere with Cats combined with their unique fur-covered man, do you really will dredge this particular analogies coming from everyone approximately?
4. Agent M and in addition H Rather than a Police officer As i most certainly could agree that police-related matches usually present an added gain from handcuffs designed to entice just about anyone into a dialogue with you. Even now, the basic private eye or blow cop costume is out involving style. Interplanetary agents is usually way less hot, and ones own all-black getups are way too sleek as a way to pass up. Regardless of whether the latest MIB movie progressed into a fail, Tessa Thompson and Philip Hemsworth nonetheless make a hell on the duo to help cosplay. Take into consideration a schokohautige color tie as well as a pair of sun glasses. Making a neuralizer out of a person’s pen combined with a roll by using tinfoil will not ever take enough time, but to get go with ones futuristic firearm look, Ebay online should acquire a few opportunities.
https://paperwriters.org/custom-essay/
5. Handmaid Instead of ones Nurse One of the most basic choices quite possibly has been around to get too long. Most people can get a discipline lab coat and offer to benefit from doctor getting a cute sweetheart or dude. However , some nurse/doctor craze has gone just a little stale. Instead, try using a red-colored cape with a white baseball hat. The costume for halloween for halloween won’t be appreciably harder into the future by compared to a nurse’s attire, but it ?s going to be much more useful. Add an occasional “Pious be”, and stop your eyes reduced, and you’ll master any health practitioner at the happening you pick.
6. GOT Starbucks Cup Rather than Any Consume Choosing t-shirt with your favorite take emblazoned for the front is generally another nonproductive choice. This can be a solid last-minute idea but if the bit extremely obvious. If you ever opt to go that will route, maybe you have thought to take it to another one location level and additionally go for the reason that most talked-about drink concerned with 2019? You are aware of I mean the most beneficial Starbucks report cup while using the set of Gameplay of Thrones. Scribble Daenerys’ full name and additionally title through out your ever again, and you’ll get to be the center of attention coming from any get together. Even if you are not sure of anyone linked to the party households, you’ll have one or more conversation simple. Let family and friends bond on the biggest dejection of the 365 days!
7. Booksmart Girls Rather than a Barbie This era because of chauvinistic dolls is thankfully behind most people, and you not any longer have to get into character like for you to get workers’ attention. Nevertheless, dress up associated with the awesome duo seen in Booksmart. And if most people convince your BFF so that you can wear matching denim overalls, you are fantastic!
8. White-colored from People Instead of a very good Prisoner Striped getup and manacles or your orange jumpsuit might be types own idea of a superb Halloween costume, nevertheless , both are really a tiny bit useless. To increase your game play, find a blood-red jumpsuit, seize a pair of shears, and almost all people will techniques much you appreciated People.
9. Spidey Instead of Superman You need to go for the well known elements and a small overused comic book halloween costume, Superman probably will be fine to suit your needs. But together of us know it’s the most talked-about superhero involving 2019 (Besides Iron Man who I’m a sucker for 3, 000). Spidey ‘s been around a lot this particular coming season, and the current Marvel/Sony drama should just add to the feature of the character. Additionally, you don’t have to go with the timeless red but also blue glance. The Multiverse offered me and you some great remedies, Spider-Gwen appearing one of the best. That’s a sleek using sexy peek that’s nerdy and state-of-the-art at once, every bit of without showing too much skin color for The fall of.
10. Zombie Bride/Groom Instead of an Angel or Satanic force Cheeky angel and devil halloween costume are a staple of Hallow’s eve, but one doesn’t want to increase the cliche? Zombies are prior their major, but still popular enough, it is possible to pull off some sort of undead check. Spice this up with formal in addition to wedding garb, and you’ll function as a best-dressed brain-eater at every party.
Happy to pick check? There’s even now time to get or make your costume if you provide Write Day-to-day news For Me attend to your reviewing while you be all set to gathering!

This match is much harder compared to the first, and you will receive on its own degree or thankfully die trying.
hentai games is never to be trifled with. Construction on the initial tough-as-nails reputation, crew Ninja's second samurai action rpg extends the original's penchant for penalizing and exceptionally nuanced combat. The sequel hones the initial distinctive spin about the Souls-like devoid of entirely obliterated it self. The end result is a lengthy, hard slog that will push even the maximum challenge-hungry gamers into their breaking points since they struggle for each inch of earth and eventually become grasp samurai. Inspite of the name, hentai games can be a prequel, showing that the secret history of a decades-long period of warfare from medieval Japan. Since the hushed, customizable hero Hide, you fight to find the trick nature of"spirit stones," that grant unnatural ability, and defeat hordes of Yo Kai around the country. The plot, which you mostly listen through cut-scenes and exposition amongst missions, has an interesting historical bent, however, it is really merely glue to carry precisely the degrees with each other. Historically applicable names such as Nobunaga and Tokugawa perform into the saga, however whatever flavor they put in in the moment fades the moment you require control and it is the right time for you to get started killing demons. But that's okay. hentai games's narrative gives only enough time for you to follow along and make you truly feel as though you're making advancements without becoming back in the way of this game play. hentai games's authoritative element is its own challenge. With core mechanisms elegant from your bones of Dark Souls, hentai games boils right down to a succession of conflicts and duels in all kinds of conditions. These conflicts demand intense precision: Maybe Not only will you your strikes and techniques tied to means of a stamina meter--named Ki--however any extra attack or mistimed movement will render you exposed, usually to a attack that'll cause you a significant sum of health. As with other Souls-like games, there's really a debilitating joy in mastering all rivals that the game throws your way. hentai games assembles to the beautifully diverse variety of options for creating a individual battling fashion. The original systems come: Every one of those nine weapon types provides a distinctive balance amid speed, power, and scope, which you are able to fine the fly by switching among a few stances (very low, mid, and large ). Each weapon type has its own personal skill tree along with progression, for which you earn points using it. The core weapon beat continues to be largely unchanged by the original, outside a few new talents and two fresh weapons types, the speedy two-handed Switchglaive and very speedy double-hatchets. That saidthe beat is really accurate. hentai games requires which you get a deep comprehension of most of the strikes your weapon(s) can do, but there is a variety of attacks and also they each put their spin on the best way to struggle. Additionally, there are multiple overall power timber, also personality levels that improve your stats in line with earning Amrita from murdering enemies. Furthermore, hentai games is really a loot match, so you'll always be looking at brand new weapons with trade-offs that tweak your stats. It has much to handle, but it will become manageable since you locate your specialty and concentrate on upgrading the skills you would like you prefer using. For hentai games vets, that is all old hat: hentai games's most significant additions revolve around the thought that cover can station Yo-Kai spirits. The most essential is that a difficult parry named the Burst Counter, which permits one to counter powerful enemy strikes. Every enemy gets a minumum of a single attack which is exposed to this counter; they are frequently big, effective motions you'll be tempted to complete. Fighting that impulse and also throwing yourself in your enemy to turn the wave of struggle for an instant is essential, making the beat feel more tactical and aggressive. In the moment should you spot a enemy trapping a burst strike, you feel powerful, as if you've gotten one on your competition, even for a moment. Because the match is very difficult, these modest successes help induce you forward. You also learn Yo Kai abilities through equippable Spirit Cores that let you to temporarily transform to the enemies you've murdered to use one of their attacks. Greater than Ninjutsu and magic, that return from the initial, Soul Cores add a much wider assortment of contextually abilities that are useful. For instance, because the Monkey Yokai Enki, you jump in the air and toss away a spear, which is quite book as hentai games doesn't have a jump button. As soon as the Yo-Kai get greater --each and every boss offers you a Spirit Center -- occasionally a giant fist or head or foot magically appears to maim your own enemies. They aren't so powerful you may lean on them to acquire a struggle, but these capabilities widely expand the range of matters you can do. Last but not least, hentai games includes a super-powerful"Yo Kai Alter" transformation, that temporarily makes you faster and stronger. Triggering the conversion doesn't obviate the demand for approaches. Though you are invulnerable, the two using attacks and shooting damage decrease the total amount of time you have in your more healthy shape. A unsuccessful assault in Yo Kai mode not just wastes a powerful, slowly and gradually charging asset, but might also leave you unexpectedly vulnerable when you revert to a old self as your competitor captured you off-guard. In true hentai games mode, even your greatest advantage could become a opportunity for your own enemy to obtain the top hand. It's lots to know and, once more, you want to receive it down perfectly to over come exactly what hentai games throws at you. You may probably earn a whole lot of blunders and perish many, many times. Some times it's going feel like you have hit a solid brick wall and simply can not win. In many scenarios, you want to have a deep breath, figure out why you are neglecting, and correct the strategy to match. Refusing to change firearms or shoot challenges or otherwise be thoughtful about the best way to play will soon leave you disappointed. The more frustrated you get, the more the more likely you'll lose again. Learning your own skillset is merely a portion of their experience. To actually excel, in addition you will need to understand hentai games's large universe. There is an astounding amount of variety across an extremely long effort. Its winding, multi-area missions interval a myriad of surroundings, from burning temples and castles, to army camps, to woods and mountain sides. A number of them change dramatically because you research these giving you a excellent awareness of"traveling" and accomplishment for masking what feels as though a lengthy period. 1 historical level, for example, commences to the hillside outside a castle plus finishes in an significant underground cave. Even if the degrees seem similar--you only siege four to five castles round 20 marketing campaign assignments --diverse degree layout in both pathing and depth make each and every one feel distinct and worth conquering. It will help the maps are somewhat more than pleased, turny dungeon crawls. Many have at least one area having a single snare or environmental conundrum. In 1 forest amount, for example, a giant owl Yokai patrols specific locations, alerting enemies if it sees you. Throughout a castle siege, it's necessary for you to dodge artillery fire as you duel enemy soldiers. Additionally, you'll find Black Realm zones, white and black spots haunted by Yo Kai that provide a much greater challenge by slowing your Ki regeneration, sprinkled all through each degree. It is simply by beating a specific enemy in a Dark Realm it will dispel permanently, injecting more ways for you to make advancement which does not refresh once you employ a shrine (or expire ). Even for all its own variety, hentai games stretches all its content as much as possible. For every assignment in its core campaign, there are two to three side assignments, a number of which remix a part of a story assignment. In addition to there, you will find rotating Twilight Missions for high end players. In addition, upon completing the campaign, you're going to receive entry to an issue degree with higher-level enemies along with equipment. While it's really a small annoying inprinciple to engage in exactly the same area of a level three to four situations, each variation finds modest techniques to change your path along with pose new challenges to keep things new. If you are enthusiastic about wringing absolutely everything out of hentai games--master each and every weapon, get the highest level loot--that there are enough mission configurations to proceed until you've had your fill. Likewise, hentai games never appears to run out of new enemies to throw at you. Nearly every degree has at least new sort of Yokai that you study and also struggle versus. They run the gamut, from Deadly giant spiders into animalistic superhero soldiers such as the Enki, a huge monkey with a spear, and also the harpy-like Ubume. Every enemy has got its own selection of abilities, and you need to know about these as a way to expect their attacks and receive the top hand. This approach takes a while --you won't have it on the first try, or even after the first victory. Every enemy, although the little Gaki demon, that looks like a balding, redeyed child, may eliminate you when you're not bringing your A-game. Dissecting enemy layouts and figuring out how exactly to counter them would be your most adorable pleasure hentai games delivers: That there are so many enemies having therefore many diverse strikes to navigate make certain the game never ever loses its flavor. Even if the degrees seem like you simply siege a few castles across 20 campaign missions--varied level design in either pathing and depth make each and every 1 feel different and values conquering. You find this most clearly when you move up against each of the game's extremely tricky supervisor experiences. Much like the numbers, the bosses range broadly and therefore are sights to behold. From a giant spider with mini-snake arms to your three-story spider using a bull's head, each and every flagship enemy style and design has lots of personality and is unlike anything else you have observed from the game before. All of them have one thing in common, even though: They're incredibly tough. Even more than ordinary battles, the bosses effectively require perfect drama for a protracted period of time. You need in order to recognize every move they make since they allow it to and know just how exactly to respond instantly. Very few took me less than a dozen attempts, and a number took me a while.
Tumblr media
Occasionally , I wondered if maybe a number of those directors ought to be described as a touch briefer, because you can find lots of bosses in which I felt I'd mastered their patterns but could not finish as they landed a single one-hit-kill late in the struggle. Eventually, that agonizing trouble and also the feeling it evokes are baked to hentai games's DNA, although, and its supervisor struggles stay compelling even as they vex and frustrate. Although it feels like a curse because you can play, it's really a testament that hentai games productively grabs and keeps the entire focus so close to such a long time .

This story is copyright of me. Download if you like, but please don’t archive it without my permission. Don’t be shy.
Continuity Note: About 1000 years before the events of Dragon Ball Z.
Previous chapters conveniently available here.
[10 August 236 Before Age.  Luffasworld]
"Ready?" Luffa asked.  
"Ready," Zatte replied.  
The two women faced each other as they sat cross-leggded on the ground in a remote savanna.   Zatte held up her hands and Luffa took them in her own.  Then Luffa transformed, and a golden aura radiated from her body as her hair and Saiyan tail began to glow bright yellow.  
Zatte loved seeing her this way.  She would have married Luffa regardless of her ability to become a Super Saiyan, but it was in this form that Luffa had rescued Zatte from a dark and terrible fate.  To Zatte, the golden light emanating from her wife was an inspiration, a reminder that anything was possible and that justice would triumph over wickedness.  Luffa was as much a symbol of hope as she was a person.  The Dorluns had a word for such symbols--xan’nil-Dor--and a religious obligation to support them.  It was unorthodox for Zatte to declare Luffa xan’nil-Dor unilaterally-- it was supposed to be a decision left to a group of Dorlun elders-- but Zatte never claimed to be orthodox.  Neither did Luffa, and that was probably why they got along as well as they did.  
Luffa had come to this world to train for a rematch against the Shockmaster, who had defeated her in battle.  Normally, the training was about getting stronger, but Luffa wanted an edge, and so the two of them had begun a separate training routine of their own.  
The exercise was simple.  Luffa's Super Saiyan form generated an over abundance of life energy, known as ki.  Zatte had a power to manipulate various forms energy, including ki.  The object was for Zatte to warp Luffa's aura and conceal it.  Normally, Zatte only ever did this with her own ki to make herself undetectable to enemies who might sense her presence.  Masking Luffa's full power was a very different challenge.  Even as she began, Zatte's face screwed up with exertion, and beads of sweat began to gather on her forehead.  
"Yeah, you're doing great!" Luffa shouted over the roar of her own aura.  "Keep it up!"
Zatte kept her eye closed as she worked, but she could sense what Luffa was talking about.  The aura normally surrounded Luffa like the flame of a candle, but Zatte had forced it backward like a gust of wind. She gripped Luffa's hands more tightly as she redoubled her efforts.   She doubted she would ever be able to cover this much power, but she had made a lot of progress since they had started these sessions, and she didn't want to quit without gaining at least a little ground.
"Zattie, look."
"Just a little more..." Zatte grunted.  "I want to go a little further."
"Fine, but look."
"Dammit, Luffa, I need to concentrate--!"
"Will you open your eye already?" Luffa snarled.
Zatte did, and immediately realized why Luffa had insisted.  As a Super Saiyan, Luffa's irises burned a brilliant green color.  Now, thanks to Zatte's ki manipulation, she had managed to change Luffa's left eye back to its original brown.  The eyebrow above it had also shifted back to its normal color, along with half of her right eyebrow, and some of the hair at the front of her scalp.  
It was truly surreal to see. At the fringes of this effect, the yellow seemed to push back, struggling to reclaim the territory where Zatte had driven it away.  She couldn't hold it at bay forever, but it was fascinating to try.  In the midst of this, Luffa smiled proudly.  
Soon after, Zatte had to yield, and Luffa powered down.  The Saiyan was still beaming with pride.  
"You're really something else, Zattie," Luffa said.  "I had no idea you could get this far."
Zatte was exhausted from the effort.  All she could do was catch her breath and drink from a canteen.  Luffa, on the other hand was already doing stretches, to prepare for several more hours of training alone.  
"Thank you," Zatte said.  "But I don't think I could ever hide a ki as big as your full power.  Not completely.  You're not exactly built for stealth."
"Damn straight," Luffa said.  "But that's not the point.  If you can hide a power like mine even partially, then it means you could get a lot stronger yourself and still hide your own ki completely.  Tactically, that's huge."
"I still don't see how you get anything from this," Zatte said.  "My power to manipulate energy is unique.  Even other Dorluns don't have it.  I can demonstrate it to you, but it's not a technique I can teach."
"No, but I can still learn from it," Luffa said between forward lunges.  "I'll probably never be able to make things invisible like you can, or alter temperatures, but the stuff you do with ki isn't so far from what I do.  If you can conceal even part of my energy from someone like the Shockmaster, then maybe I can figure out how to do it myself.  Even if I have to cut back on my power to stay hidden, it could come in handy."
"You plan to ambush him?" Zatte asked.  "Doesn't sound like your style."
"Oh, he'll see me coming," Luffa boasted.  "But I want to lull him into a false sense of security.  Make him think I'm not even on the planet.  Then I show up and challenge him when he least expects it."
"So that's why you asked Queen Phenylal create that wormhole between here and Extraliga," Zatte said.  "The Shockmaster would expect you to arrive by starship."  
"Exactly, and I've got a few more tricks to throw at him too," Luffa said. "For instance..."
Zatte listened to her go on about her schemes and strategies with loving admiration.  Luffa was so confident, not just in her own abilities, but in those of everyone around her.  It had been difficult to see her lose to the Shockmaster before, but now Zatte could see the true greatness of Luffa was in her resilience.
She was deeply honored to help in any way she could.  Luffa had hinted at a mission she had in mind for Zatte, but the details still had to be sorted out.  It was hard to contain her anticipation.  She wanted to fight for Luffa, to walk through fire for her, to prove to herself and to the rest of the universe just how devoted she was to the cause.  
At times, Zatte caught herself thinking this way and felt self-conscious about it.  She always considered herself to be a very practical and down-to-earth woman.  She had been raised to believe fanaticism was a path to ruin.  But it also stoked her passions and made her feel more alive.  Was it so wrong to feel that way?  To want to burn in a fire of inspiration?   What good was survival without something to live for?
"--then after I kick his ass, I thought you and I should go back to that pub we went to.  Get some ribs to celebrate, and then... wait, I'm getting a call."
Luffa reached into one of the pockets of her yellow pants and withdrew a handheld communicator.  It was programmed to route transmissions from Luffa’s ship while she was away.   "It's from Wist.  You remember Ensign Liberty, right?" Luffa asked.
"The lady with the stupid costume, right?" Zatte asked.  
"Right," Luffa said.  "She formed an underground resistance on Shocky's home planet.  I asked her to call me if she found anything useful.  Guess she's got a tip."
"When are you gonna start wearing a red-white-and-blue leotard into battle?" Zatte asked with a smirk. 
Luffa frowned.  "It was a 'stupid costume' a second ago," she said.  
"Yeah," Zatte said, "but I think you'd fill it out better."
Luffa blushed and her eyes went wide with something like fright.  She opened the comm line, and carefully held her free hand over the receiver, as though worried Zatte might say something else embarassing while she was talking.  
Zatte smiled mischievously while she waited for them to finish.  Luffa glared at her, then suddenly she bore a very grim expression.  
"He'd really go that far?   Bastard..." was all Luffa said in response.  She listened for a minute longer, and then glanced at Zatte.  
"Ensign, I'm going to put my wife on the line," Luffa said.  "You met her in Queen Phenylal's palace.  Yeah, the blue lady with the eyepatch.  We just got married.  Yeah, yeah... thanks, but right now I need you to tell her what you just told me."
She handed the communicator to Zatte and silently mouthed the words "I'll need your help on this."
Zatte took the communicator without a moment's hesitation.

[21 August 236 Before Age.  Luffasworld]
It wasn't easy to use telepathy over interstellar distances.  Some life forms might have had the power, but Dorluns weren't one of them, and neither were the beings she needed to contact.  Fortunately, they had allies who could bridge the gap.  
"You're letting them use your blood?" Keda asked.  They had been discussing her work over breakfast, and the details were beginning to worry the young girl.  
"Well when you put it that way, it sounds kind of creepy," Zatte admitted.  "But you've worked with the Gwarthosians before.  Luffa saved their planet a while back.  You trust them, right?"
"I did.  That was before they started making potions out of your blood," Keda muttered.  
"Scotch Woodcock's species has advanced telepathic abilities, but not in the kind of range we need.  Tobiko's magic will boost that, but it won't be enough unless we do something on our end.  That's where the Gwarthosians and their alchemy comes in.  If I drink this stuff they're brewing, It'll tune me in to Woodcock's psychic signal no matter where I am."
"You're going to drink it?" Keda asked skeptically.  She put her hand to her own throat, as though contemplating that action.
"No, I'm going to soak my feet in it.  Of course I'm going to drink it.  That's how potions work, kid," Zatte said.  "It'll be perfectly safe.  That's why they need samples of my blood and hair, so they can make a batch that's compatible with Dorlun biochemistry.  You could probably use it too, if you wanted."
Keda’s face screwed up with disgust.  "But why go to all this trouble?" she asked.  
Zatte speared a piece of meat with her fork and smeared it across her plate to cover it in what was left of the sauce.  "Woodcock and the other rebels on Wist found an archive that told them about the Shockmaster's plan to use the Recollector, but they couldn't get a lot of information on the Recollector itself.  Ideally, we need a technical manual to show us how to knock this thing out, but so far they haven't found one.   Once the Shockmaster's forces leave Wist to head for Extraliga, that'll make it easier for them to search the planet for artifacts, but we'll only have six weeks to work with, and they may still not turn up anything.  So I'm going to Extraliga to search there.”
“You’re leaving?!” Keda asked.  “But you just got married--!”
“That's where the Recollector is,” Zatte said.    “Maybe the people who left it there left behind some documentation too.  Either way, we'll be cutting it close, and we all agreed that it would be helpful to stay in contact, and this will be more secure than subspace radio."
"Okay, but that's not what I meant," Keda said.  "Why are you getting involved with this at all?"
The question surprised Zatte, but only because she had taken it for granted.  "The Recollector is dangerous, Keda.  It plucks things from the distant past and brings them to the present.  You could cause all sorts of trouble with a power like that.  And if the Shockmaster gets his way, he'll bring something called the Ur-Ember to Extraliga.  All I know about that is that it's a powerful mystic talisman, but its energies are dangerous at a certain range.  If he brings it to the surface of Extraliga, it could kill almost everyone on the planet."
"But he won't," Keda objected.  "Not if Luffa stops him first.  That's what she's been training for all this time, right?"
"A lot can happen in a fight," Zatte said.  "I'm sure Luffa can win, but we shouldn't pin everything on her.  Besides, she wants to use this against him.   If I can deny the Shockmaster's objective ahead of time, it'll be a huge blow to his morale, and Luffa can take advantage of that."
"Why can't the Extraligans deal with it themselves?" Keda asked.  "Or just evacuate the planet?"
"Keda, it's their home," Zatte said.  "Did we abandon our colony when the Tikosi started threatening us?  No, we took a stand to protect ourselves."
"And we lost!" Keda shouted.  "You and Luffa tried to fight back, and it didn't do any good!  Everyone died but the three of us, and we had to leave anyway!  You lost your eye in that battle, and she was captured!  Captured and... And...!"
Keda got very quiet and looked down at her plate.  "She let me read her thoughts back then, so I could help save her from the Tikosi," she finally said.  "They did terrible things to her, and it never would have happened if she hadn't tried to fight for us.  I know she wanted to, and I'm grateful, but she never should have done it.  And I'm afraid you're going to make the same mistake for her."
"She's my wife, Keda," Zatte said.  "I know you don't believe she's a xan-nil'Dor, but even if she's not I still have an obligation to--"
"What happens to her if you get killed out there?" Keda asked.  "What do you think that'll do to her?"
"I won't get k--"
"You make her happy," Keda said.  "I mean, she's always moody, but she's gotten a lot easier to get along with ever since you showed up.  If something happened to you... I don't know what she might do."
"What do you want me to do, Keda?  Sit this one out and save my own skin?  We've had this argument before."
"I know," Keda said.  "And I know you're going to go no matter what.  But like you said, you've got an obligation to your wife.  She may need you for this battle, but she'll need you when it's over too.  Don't lose sight of that."
Zatte didn't know what to say after that.  It would have been easy to dismiss Keda’s concerns as the product of cowardice or youthful inexperience, but Zatte knew better.  The girl was very intelligent for her age, and she had braved many dangers while working with Luffa.   Her objections were valid, but Zatte was committed.  There was really nothing else to be said.
And so they finished their meal in silence.
*******
[19 October 236 Before Age.  Extraliga]
Zatte had experienced a sort of telepathic union before, through Luffa’s mental abilities, but the link to her allies on Wist was a very different experience.  As she sat alone in a hotel room on Extraliga, fully aware of her surroundings, she was also standing in a roadside bar, conferring with three other people.
The bar wasn’t real, of course, but a construct born of Scotch Woodcock’s memories and imagination.  It felt real, though, and while she couldn’t quite smell the smoke from Woodcock’s imaginary cigar, the darts she threw at a board on the wall had weight and texture.  On the other hand, her throws were a little too good to be true.  Her aim had never been quite the same after she lost her right eye, but while she was in the roadhouse she couldn’t miss.
"We gonna talk or play, babe?" Woodcock asked testily.
"So talk," Zatte said.  "If you didn’t want me to use the darts, you’d put ’em away."
"Bloody things are for ambience," he grumbled.  "You can’t miss, love.  No point playin’, ’less yer daft or somethin’."
"So I'm daft.  The novelty hasn’t worn off yet," Zatte said.  "Besides, we haven’t had much luck so far.  At least when I’m here I can pretend to get something right."
Nearby, M’ranga--codenamed Ensign Liberty-- was performing a reverse planche handstand on the toprail of a chair she had taken from one of the tables.  This would have been impressive enough on its own, but as she arched her back to bring her legs directly over her head, she carefully began to tip the chair backward, making the balancing act even more precarious. Every so often, she would shift her position, occasionally bending one of her knees or crossing her ankles as she adjusted her center of balance.
"She's right, Scotch," M'ranga said.  "I can't really fall down in this place either, but it still makes good practice for when I do these kinds of stunts in real life.  We can use all the confidence we can get these days."
"Be that as it may, ladies, perhaps we shouldn't take Mr. Woodcock's psychic contributions for granted."  The fourth person in their group, Tobiko, was sitting in a lotus position on a billiards table.  A pair of imaginary bar patrons with pool cues stared at him disapprovingly, but took no other action until Tobiko finally got down from the table.  
In the real world, the ancient wizard resembled an amphibian swamp monster, but in the roadhouse he manifested as his true self: a handsome, golden-skinned man in flowing white robes, the way he had looked before he had been cursed and banished from society.  Even as he approached the others, he still kept his distance, clasping his hands together and looking at nothing in particular.  Zatte could never tell if he was contemplating some mystic riddle or simply uneasy about being among so many people.
Woodcock snorted and shook his head.  "I can keep this up all day.  Just don't see the point in horsin' around, is all."
Zatte had developed a rapport with them over the past few weeks.  They had been fighting together for months, and she was pleased that they had accepted her into their close-knit group.  Still, they didn’t have much else to show for their collaboration.  
"Have you had any more luck on your end?" Tobiko asked her.  
"Not much," Zatte said.  "Oh, we found the Recollector all right.  It was right where you guys thought it would be, based on the records you dug up on Planet Wist.   But we can't do anything with it.  They've got a team of Extraligan scientists studying the thing, but they can't even touch it, let alone turn it on."
"I was afraid of that," Tobiko said.  "My ancestors knew the dangers of a device like the Recollector, so they included precautions to prevent any non-Wistian from ever being able to use it.  I imagine you encountered similar issues with the  Undeletor."
"Yeah, but it didn't cause me any problems," Zatte said.  "With the Undeletor, all I had to do was turn it off.  I didn't even need to do anything to the machine itself.  I just sabotaged the modern computers the Wistians were using to operate it.  You're right, though, once it was deactivated, the Extraligans couldn't turn it back on again."
She tossed another dart and groaned.  "But at least we could touch the stupid thing.  The Recollector's like a hologram or something.  It seems solid, right until you try to do anything to it, and then your hand passes right through.  So we can't even hide it or destroy it."
"Interesting," M'ranga said.   "We saw the Shockmaster do something similar once.  He went into a deep meditation, and became intangible.  Tobiko tried to cast spells on him, but he snapped out of it and attacked us first."
"That must be why he didn't bother coming to Extraliga in person during the first invasion," Zatte said.  "He knew his prize would be safe until he was ready for it.  Better to let his foot-soldiers secure the planet to prevent anyone from getting in his way.  But he never ordered troops to secure the Recollector's position, which tells me that he never knew its exact location."
"I'm almost positive he couldn't know," M'ranga added.  "Tobiko and I had to go through at least a dozen archive crystals to figure it out ourselves.   The Shockmaster knows the Recollector is on the planet, but he doesn't know exactly where."
"I still ain't keen on you rummagin' through all them crystals, love," Woodcock said.  "Tobiko's spell might fool 'em into giving you access, even though yer an alien, but it takes a toll on ya every time."
She did a flip to dismount from the chair and gestured at her leotard.  When Zatte had met her in person, the costume was red, white, and blue.  In the roadhouse, she had looked the same.  But over the course of their telepathic correspondence, the color scheme had gradually changed to silver and black, resembling the national colors of Ancient Wist.  
"If you're talking about my psychic wardrobe," she said, "I've noticed.  Every time I make a query for information in the archives, I get flooded with all this other information about Wist's history and culture that I never asked for.  By now I probably know more about Ancient Wist than I do about my home planet.  But I've always believed that there's nothing to fear from knowledge, and if it helps save even one life on Extraliga, it'll be worth the trouble."
"Oh yeah," Zatte said.  "I forgot that those archive crystals only respond to Wistians too.  Why can't Tobiko use them?"
"Because of the curse of exile that was placed upon me," Tobiko said.  "My life force was altered along with my outward appearance, to make me a monster in both body and soul.  If I were with you on Extraliga now, the Recollector would be as intangible to me as it would to you or any other alien."
"You're not a monster, Tobiko," M'ranga insisted.  
"Life force..." Zatte said aloud.   "Then the spell you use on M'ranga works on the same principle as the curse?  You sort of turn her into one of your people long enough to fool these gemstones, right?"
"Broadly speaking, yes," Tobiko said.  "Though the effect is temporary, and her physical appearance is unaffected."
"Then maybe I can do something similar here," Zatte said.  "I have the power to conceal my own ki.  If I could disguise it... but I'd need a Wistian to use as a model, and there aren't any here.  Most of the occupation army I fought were projections created by the Undeletor, and the flesh-and-blood captives were taken to a Federation prison on another planet."
"Give it a little time, babe," Woodcock said darkly.  "Extraliga's sky'll be crawlin' with them folk before you know it."
"By then it'll be too late," M'ranga added.  "If you try to capture one and take him back to the Recollector, you risk giving away its position to his comrades."
"Yeah," Zatte said.  "But I wouldn't have to get that close to make this work.  If my 'volunteer' was someone strong enough, I could sense their ki at a distance."
"You won't find anyone like that in the Wistian army," Tobiko said.  "Only the Shockmaster himself, and perhaps his adjutant, Tigon.  And they would have little cause to use their power until--"
"Until Luffa attacks them," Zatte finished.   A strange smirk appeared on her face as she said this.  
"Cutting things pretty close, aren't ya?" Woodcock asked.
"And we still don't know if it will work," Tobiko said.  "It might be preferable if I were to join you on Extraliga, using the faeries' wormhole.  My spells could--"
"That would kill you, Tobiko," M'ranga objected.  "You can't survive that long away from the marshes of this planet!"
"And the fae signed a pact with the Federation," Zatte added.  "Both sides agreed to seal the wormhole for the foreseeable future.  Luffa might be able to pull some strings on that, but I agree with the ensign here.  It's not worth the risk."
"Consider what you are saying, Zatte," Tobiko pleaded.  "The Wistian fleet will reach you in less than a month.  You have that long to develop your idea into a plan, which you will only be able to execute after the Shockmaster arrives.  We will help you in any way we can, but ultimately you are placing the burden squarely upon yourself.  If you fail, or if Luffa falls in battle, you will likely be the first to die.  Are you certain this is how you want to proceed?"
"Ya don't gotta frighten the bird, Tobiko," Woodcock said.  
"I'm simply being realistic, Scotch," Tobiko replied.  "If my assessment is overly grim, then so be it."
Zatte nodded at Tobiko and took the stool next to Woodcock.  She laid her darts on the bar and flagged down the imaginary tapster for a drink.  She wasn't sure what the drinks were supposed to be, but they weren't real, so it didn't matter much.
She remembered what Keda had said to her before, and she took those words seriously.  But as she considered the situation, and decided there were no practical alternatives, her thoughts kept turning back to Luffa, and the proud smile on her face when they had trained together on Luffasworld.  
"Well, Zatte?" Tobiko pressed.  "Are you sure this is what you want to do?"
Zatte finished her drink in one swallow and slammed the empty glass back onto the bar.
"Hell yeah," she said.

25 Low-Sugar Baking Projects for Not-Too-Sweet Treats
I love sugar as much as anyone; it's the backbone of most everything I do, since it provides desserts with volume, structure, body, flavor, and, oh yeah, sweetness (its least important job as far as I'm concerned). Sugar's at the top of the food pyramid for a reason, a sweet cap to an otherwise balanced diet, something to be consumed in moderation.
For the most part, I accomplish that with portion control: thinner slices of cake, smaller scoops of ice cream, one cookie instead of two. But a number of my favorite recipes have a relatively low amount of added sugar, around eight grams or less per serving. For those who love baking, but feel like cutting back on sugar for one reason or another, these recipes should fit the bill.

Like the original, my homemade Fig Newtons feel pretty virtuous. The cakey cookie is lightly sweetened with honey and brown sugar, while the filling itself is made from nothing more than dried figs, plain applesauce, and a squeeze of fresh orange juice. It's a chewy, fruity snack that's not too sweet or rich and easy to customize with the variations in my cookbook (including apricot-strawberry, blueberry-lime, cherry-banana, and...bacon!).

This simple galette is primarily sweetened by the pears, with just a few spoonfuls of added sugar to draw out their juices. Cardamom, Chinese five spice, and vanilla bean amplify the natural flavor of the pear, which stands in creamy contrast to the crispy crust below. It's the ideal dessert to conclude a night of tapas or wine and cheese, but to be honest, I'm all about having it for brunch.

The bulk of sugar in these lemony scones comes from a sprinkle of turbinado on top, an entirely optional (though delightfully crunchy) addition. The dough itself leans on fresh blueberries for sweetness, with just 2 teaspoons of sugar to help with flavor and browning.
Lemon-Blueberry Scones »

My buttermilk granola has less added sugar than its commercial counterparts, just enough to help it brown and crisp in the oven. With toasted sugar, that sweetness is even milder, tempered by a hint of caramel complexity. Serve it for breakfast with Greek yogurt, or grab a handful whenever you need a light and crunchy snack.

In most recipes, sugar serves some key structural role, but in these grainy English muffins, I use honey in an entirely optional way—to serve as a sweet counterpoint to the graham-y flavor of whole wheat. You can dial it back to taste, but I'd use at least an ounce, so the yeast has a snack during its long, overnight rise.
English Muffins »

Few things are as satisfying as homemade bagels that turn out just as blistered, chewy, and flavorful as if they'd come from an old-school bakery. There's just a pinch of sugar to help fuel the dough's slow, overnight rise and a bit of malt syrup in the boiling water for a glossy brown and aromatic crust, but the total amount is still well below our 8 gram threshold—even if you opt to make cinnamon raisin bagels instead.

Look, it's not my fault if you wind up drowning these in maple syrup, but the waffles themselves have only a pinch of sugar in the batter. Instead of doing an overnight rise, I often make these brown-butter waffles first thing in the morning. Then I let them rise all day, so I can griddle them up to serve along with soups and stews or (my fave) fried chicken.
Brown-Butter Yeast-Raised Waffles »

I learned to make biscuits when I was about two years old, less a reflection of my skill than a testament to the truly foolproof technique—smushing butter into flour with reckless abandon. Biscuits are a fast and simple breakfast or the foundation of a breakfast sandwich, but they're also an easy side for just about any meal (well, any Southern meal).

As with my lemon-blueberry scones, the dough here is just barely sweetened, with most of the sugar coming from the chocolate itself. So instead of a sweet milk chocolate, choose something bitter and dark for a bold take on chocolate scones.

Thanks to whole wheat flour, digestive biscuits have an amazing, graham cracker–like flavor and crunch. Paired with a shiny coat of dark chocolate, these crisp but tender digestives are immensely satisfying with a cup of tea (and when sugar is of no concern, they're the perfect size to sandwich around a toasted marshmallow for s'mores).

They may be showered in powdered sugar, but that's only because Mexican wedding cookies (a.k.a., Russian tea cakes; a.k.a., snowballs; a.k.a., Danish wedding cookies) start with an almost savory dough. And, of the sugar that's sprinkled on top, a good deal is lost along the way, scattered across your baking sheet and (real talk) down the front of your shirt.

Though lightly glazed in barley malt syrup, homemade Wheat Thins don't require much added sugar, so you can grab a handful of crispy crackers without overdoing it (whatever that means to you). Plus, there's a little more glaze than strictly necessary, so a good deal of the sugar that's present on paper won't ever make it to the crackers themselves. With a sprinkling of coarse salt and the grainy crunch of wheat germ, these savory-sweet crackers are as hearty as they are crisp.
Homemade Wheat Thins »

Unlike the epic crunch of homemade Wheat Thins, these whole wheat crackers are thick and tender with a gentle snap (like the Carr's ones you buy). They're fun and easy to make (the dough comes together super fast in a food processor), and they will keep up to a month in an airtight container. Pull them out as a homemade addition to cheese plates, or smear one with peanut butter for a simple snack.
Whole Wheat Crackers »

Out of everything on this list, these are my all-time favorite for snacking; they're unambiguously salty, cheesy, and crisp. Like any other cracker, these have a great shelf life, so I like to make a big batch to enjoy over a few weeks. Plus, when I'm feeling creative, homemade Cheez-Its are easy to customize with additional herbs and spices or alternative types of cheese.

With a cheesy crust, chunks of salty ham, slivers of scallion, and shredded Gruyère scattered throughout the dough, savory scones make a hearty breakfast, or they can be cut small to serve alongside bowls of creamy tomato soup.

With fresh parsley, a dash of onion powder, garlic, paprika, and cayenne, these cheddar biscuits have a bold flavor that can stand up to even the heartiest bowl of chili or chowder. So grab a spoon, dollop the dough onto a half-sheet pan, and start baking!

It breaks my heart to see Irish soda bread relegated to a bit of St. Patrick's Day kitsch, especially when recipes treat it like some sort of fruity scone. In reality, Irish soda bread is a crusty loaf that's chewy and satisfying enough to pair with any meal or even just a charcuterie plate. It has an almost pretzel-like flavor that goes with any sort of stew or braise.

Like bagels, my favorite dinner rolls are briefly boiled before baking, producing a crackly crust that's glossy and eggshell thin. Inside, they're fluffy and light—perfect for mopping up sauces and stews. Thanks to a long overnight rise these rolls can be a make-ahead element for family dinners and holiday gatherings, letting you knock out the work of making and shaping the rolls a day in advance.

I've always thought of chicken pot pie as a secret pastry since the best part is the crust, whether you opt for drop biscuits or a flaky lid (I'm partial to hearty whole wheat). But even if the crust is the star, the filling has to do its part, which means the chicken has to be juicy and the sauce has to be thick and full of flavor.

These biscuits get their sweetness from thick and mellow sweet potato purée. The sweet potatoes also lend a bright orange hue and wonderfully buttery flavor. Serve the biscuits alongside hearty soups and stews or with a spoonful of jam.

Angel biscuits are buttery and tender, but their flavor and texture is more similar to a Parker House roll than a traditional biscuit. After proofing overnight, they're ready to bake in the morning, so you can enjoy them for breakfast, lunch, and maybe even dinner.

Pumpkin purée transforms a regular white sandwich loaf into a beautiful and flavorful bread. The pumpkin purée imparts the bread with a subtle earthiness and seasonal flair. It's a versatile loaf perfect for toasting, sandwiching cold cuts, cubing for bread pudding, or whipping up a grilled cheese sandwich.

It's true that these are technically cookies, but their almost-savory flavor gives them balance and depth. With biscotti, the exact amount of sugar per serving depends on how you slice it, so aim for 30 12 millimeter pieces to keep the sugar in check. Lean and crunchy with a refreshing anise flavor, they're perfect for dunking in fortified wine or snacking on with a cup of coffee.

Toning down the sweetness in these gingerbread cookies allows the rich flavors of freshly ground ginger, orange zest, and warm spices to shine through. Despite the addition of both brown sugar and molasses, these cookies are rolled so thin the yield is quite high, leaving only 3 grams of sugar per 2 1/2-inch cookie. Serve them plain or with a thin layer of royal icing. Either way, they'll be gone in a snap.

This banana bread is classic, but it's certainly not plain. While it's an optional step, toasting the sugar will bring the bread an added layer of depth. Ripe bananas give the loaf structure, while replacing some of the all-purpose flour with oat flour makes for a moister bread. Baked as two 8-inch loaves, cut into 10 slices each, our classic banana bread technically qualifies for the list—so just keep an eye on the serving size. However you cut it, our take on this recipe will be a hit.

Transcript Excerpt
Byron Reese: This is Voices in AI brought to you by GigaOm, and I’m Byron Reese. Today my guest is Max Welling. He is the Vice President, Technologies at Qualcomm. He holds a Ph.D. in theoretical physics from Utrecht University and he’s done postdoc work at Caltech, University of Toronto and other places as well. Welcome to the show Max!
Max Welling: Thank you very much.
I always like to start with the question [on] first principles, which is: What is intelligence and why is artificial intelligence artificial? Is it not really intelligent? Or is it? I’ll start with that. What is intelligence and why is AI artificial?
Okay. So if intelligence is not something that’s easily defined in a single sentence. I think there is a whole broad spectrum of possible intelligence, and in fact in artificial systems we are starting to see very different kinds of intelligence. For instance you can think of a search engine as being intelligent in some way, but it’s a very different kind of intelligence obviously as a human being, right?
So there’s human intelligence and I guess that’s the ability to plan ahead and to analyze the world, to organize information—these kinds of things. But artificial intelligence is artificial because it’s sort of in machines not in human brains. That’s the only reason why we call it ‘artificial.’ I don’t think there is any reason why artificial intelligence couldn’t be the same or very similar to human intelligence. I just think that that’s a very restricted set of intelligence. And we could imagine having a whole broad spectrum of intelligence in machines.
I’m with you [on] all of that, but maybe because human intelligence is organizing information, it’s planning ahead, machines are doing something different like search engines and all that. Maybe I should ask the question: What isn’t intelligence? I mean at some point, doesn’t it lose all its meaning if it’s like it’s kind of… a lot of stuff? I mean like what are we really talking about when we when we come to intelligence? Are we talking about problem solving? Are we talking about adaptation or what? Or is that so meaningless that it has no definition?
Well yeah, it depends on how broad you want to define it. I think it’s not a very well defined term per se. I mean you could ask yourself whether a fish is intelligent. And I think a fish to some degree is intelligent because you know it has a brain, it processes information, it adapts perhaps a little bit to the environment. So even a fish is intelligent, but clearly it’s a lot less intelligent than a human.
So anything I would say that has the purpose of sensing—sort of acquiring information from its environment, computing from that information to its own benefit. In other words, to survive better is the ultimate goal or to reproduce maybe is the penultimate goal. And so basically, once you’ve taken any information and you compute then you can act—use that information. You can then act on the world in order to bring the world in a state that’s more beneficial for you, right? So that you can survive better, reproduce better. So anything that processes information, I would say in order to reach a goal, in order to achieve a particular goal which in evolution is reproducing or surviving.
But… in artificial systems it could be something very different. In an artificial system, you could still sense information, you could still compute and process information in order to satisfy your customers—which is like providing them with better search results or something like that. So that’s a different goal, but the same phenomenon is underlying it, which is processing information to reach that goal.
Now, and you mentioned adaptation and learning, so I think those are things that are super important parts of being intelligent. So a system that can adapt and learn from its environment and from experiences is a system that can keep improving itself and therefore become more intelligent or better at its task, or adapt when the environment is changing.
So these are really important parts of being intelligent, but not necessary because you could imagine a self-driving car as being completely pre-programmed. It doesn’t adapt, but it still behaves intelligently in the sense that it knows when things are happening, it knows when to overtake other cars, it knows how to avoid collisions, etcetera.
So in short, I think intelligence is actually a very broad spectrum of things. It’s not super well-defined, and of course you can define more narrow things like a human intelligence for instance, or fish intelligence and/or search engine intelligence or something like that, and then it would mean something slightly different.
How far down in simplicity would you extend that? So if you have a pet cat and you have a food bowl that refills itself when it gets empty…it’s got a weight sensor, and when the weight sensor shows nothing in there, it opens something up and then fills it. It has a goal which is: keep the cat happy. Is that a primitive kind of artificial intelligence?
It would be a very, very primitive kind of artificial intelligence. Yes.
Fair enough. And then going back centuries before that, I read the first vending machines, the first coin operated machines were to dispense holy water and you would drop a coin in a slot and the weight of the coin would weigh down a thing that would open a valve, then dispense some water and then, as the water was dispensed, the coin would fall out and it would close off again. Is that a really, really primitive artificial intelligence? Yeah. I don’t know. I mean you can drive these things to an extreme with many of these definitions. Clearly this is some kind of mechanism. I guess when there is sensing and this can sense, there is a bit of sensing because it’s sensing the weight of a coin and then it has a response to that—which is opening something. It’s like a response and sort of completely automatic response, and humans actually have many of these reflexes. If you hit your knee with a hammer, with a paddle of a hammer like the doctor does, your knee jerks up, so that’s actually being done through a nervous system that goes to… doesn’t even reach your brain. I think it’s down here somewhere in your brain in the back of your spine. So it’s very, very, very primitive, but still you could argue it senses something and it acts. It does something, it computes something and it acts. So it’s like the very, very most fundamental simple form of intelligence. Yeah.
So the technique we’re using to make a lot of advances in artificial intelligence, now that computers is machine learning, I guess it’s really a simple idea. Let’s study data about the past. Let’s look for patterns and make projections into the future. How powerful is that technique… what did you think are the inherent limits of that particular way of gaining knowledge and building intelligence?
Well, I think it’s kind of interesting if you look at the history of AI. So in the old days, there was a lot of AI which was hard coding rules. So you would think about what are the all the eventualities which you could encounter. And for each one of those, you would sort of program a response as an automatic response to those. And those systems did not necessarily look at data in large amounts from which they would learn patterns and learn to respond.
In other words, it was all up to humans to figure out what are the relevant things to look at, to sense, and how to respond to them and if you make enough of those, actually a system like that looks like it’s behaving quite intelligently and actually still I think nowadays, self-driving cars… a large component of these cars is made of lots and lots of these rules which are hardcoded in the system. And so if you have many, many of these really primitive pieces of intelligence together, they might look like they act quite intelligently.
Now there is a new paradigm which is: it’s always been there, but it’s been basically becoming the dominant mainstream in AI. The new paradigm I would say, which is: ‘Well, why are we actually trying to hand code all of these things which we should sense in there by hand because  basically you can only do this to the level of what the human imagination actually is able to come up with, right?”
So if you think about detecting some… let’s say if somebody is suffering from Alzheimer’s from a brain MRI, well you can look at like the size of your hippocampus and it’s known that that thing shrinks—that organ shrinks if you are starting to suffer from memory issues which are correlated with Alzheimer’s. So that a human can think about that and put this in as a rule, but it turns out that there’s many, many more far more subtle patterns in that MRI scan. And if you sum all of those up, then actually you can get a much better prediction.
But humans, they wouldn’t be able to even see those subtle patterns because it’s like if this brain region and this brain region and this brain region, but not that brain region, would sort of have this particular pattern. Then you know this is a little bit of evidence in favor of like Alzheimer’s and then hundreds and hundreds of those things. So that humans lack the imagination or the sort of the capacity to come up with all of these rules. And we basically discovered that just provide a large data set and let the machine itself figure out what these rules are instead of trying to hand code them in. And this is the big change for instance with deep learning as well, [as] in computer vision and speech recognition.
Let’s first do computer vision. People have many hand coded features that they would try to identify on the image. Right. And then from there they would make predictions or for there’s some whether there was a person in the image or something like that. But then we basically said, “Well let’s just throw all the pixels, all the raw pixels at a neural nets. This is a convolution of neural net and let the neural nets figure out what are the right features. Let this neural net learn what the right features are to attend to when it needs to do a certain task.” And so it works a lot better, again because there’s many very subtle patterns that it now learns to look at which humans simply didn’t think of to look at—they seem to look at these things.
Now another example is the Alpha Go, maybe. In Alpha Go something similar happened. Humans have analyzed this game and come up with all sorts of rules of thumb for how to play the game. But then Alpha Go figured out things that humans can’t comprehend, it’s too complex. But still it made the algorithm win the game.
So I would say it’s a new paradigm that goes well beyond trying to hand code human invented features into a system and therefore it’s a lot more powerful. And in fact this is also the way of course humans work. And I don’t see a real limit to this, right? So if you pump more data through it, in principle you can learn a lot of things—or well basically everything you need to learn in order to become intelligent.

Make SEO Work for You
Businesses should use 2018 in order to break the bad habit associated with viewing aspects of an SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION marketing strategy as a one time exercise. John talks regarding the key reason why online marketers and business owners should make use of LinkedIn, and how they may use it to enhance their particular website's SEO, and increase lookup ranking. 2017 is coming to an end, and it's that time of the year where we start exploring the important thing SEO trends for 2018. With the presence associated with an improved algorithm, it will be now undoubtedly vital to utilize whitened hat SEO techniques for efficient Link building. One particular of the biggest mistakes we all see businesses make with nearby SEO 2019 Slide or organic SEO is simply diving in at a trickery level without understanding what their particular strengths or weaknesses are. So, Digital Marketing Experts, it's time to enable your own content and promotions for tone of voice searches to make it worth intended for SEO 2018.

On writing and nerding: my Nookery
Being a Londoner I’ve got about 5 inches of ‘space’ to use as my writing nook. This is more often than not the corner of my living room.
I’ll be honest this is a massive uptick from 10 years of writing in hotel rooms. Officially the second decent thing hotels are useful for, after jumping on the beds.
Finding the right place and space to work has always been difficult for me. I have been a mobile worker most of my adult life, and where transience wasn’t on the cards home was more open-plan sleep and entertainment space than “shed”, like I had once imagined.
Writing in the presence of housemates and close friends has led to a tendency to ‘nest’.
[To be read in David Attenborough voice]
“Here we find the rare Kettle-bird, a nesting writer capable of burying herself in blankets, pillows, hats and hoodies so that all that is visible is a pair of intense eyes, rapidly typing hands and a glowing keyboard. Best to avoid if it looks like it might cry or kill you.”
It also means I’m forever taking things up and down from walls. And you wouldn’t believe the places I’ve found post-it notes! Like most modern writers I have an 'electronic office’ which consists of various cloud based apps like pinterestand g-docs. But I’m building a little 'portable’ office that allows me to physicalise the most important parts and that makes use of my addiction to gadgets, multipurpose tooling and App-linking with digital media for access on the move.
So here follows a few blogs on Nookery essentials for writers needing to build a guerrilla writing space, which can be deconstructed and reconstructed at a moment’s notice.
This is an evolution of Fort-Building of my youth, but for the discerning, space-saving, writer. (Turning it up to 11 for the nerdy ones)
1) Multi-purpose room divider / human-avoider
Blocking out children, demanding friends, television and that ever-so-pesky daylight that makes us shrink back into our coffins is sometimes necessary to allow the imagination to fly. Great for people who like to ‘write in the dark, edit in the light’.
Where possible I think multipurpose is best, and I found a great Etsy supplier that makes custom boards with chalk boards/cork boards included. Chalk boards are great for planning etc. Cork for making sure those pictures and notes and post-its stay in view and don’t get lost down the back of the sofa.
To accompany this I also recommend :
Chalkboard pens in many colours because lump chalk is made of evil
Hook Gear Thumb tacks which enable dangling other stuff on top of the pins - genius (also useful for throwing out of the window a loud people disrupting my creativity)
2) Who needs walls anyway?
Being a writer is a symptom of an addition to stationary. FACT. Even with an electronic office I’ve probably consumed an entire rainforest in my lifetime with all the printing, doodling and sticking I’ve done. Combining Whiteboard Paper with Dropbox and Evernote as a tool that transposes notes from Scrawl (OCR = optical character recognition) to electronic notes [I’ll write a separate blog on how to set this up and update a link here] allows me to scribble freely on my walls like a child with ADHD after three boxes of Nerds and a bottle of Sunny D, which means I can follow up when I come down from the sugar high.
3) Electronic Scribblings
In 2015 if it ain’t digital it won’t do. But dammit I spent literally ages when I was a teen making sure I had the most expressive handwriting for my romantic soul - to the point it was borderline illegible - but it’s mine gaddamit and the computer will recognise it eventually.
So imagine my shiny glee when I discovered LiveScribe.
I use aLiveScribe 3 - It’s particularly good for writing workshops as well as sitting in coffee shops. My only issue is that I hate biro and prefer fineliner or ink - but I sacrifice a smooth writing experience for portable productivity. (See it in action with a review here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Asj0qOY1dkI)
Other options include the Sky penwhich uploads straight to Evernote. NeoandEquilalso do smart pens. But LiveScribe is top for me especially given their new project withMoleskin(Which should be rebranded WriterCrack IJS).
When in doubt, also, there’s my trusty Lamy. It doesn’t do electronic, but it does fuel my soul. 
4) Teasmaid / Regular Writer-Fuel Dispenser
Beverages, particularly Tea, are essential for writing; and making a cup of tea ‘in character’ is a great way to get into writing mode. So there are definite advantages to getting up and making a pot, also to make sure gangrene doesn’t set in during a particular epic writing sesh. Therefore I would like to thank the Universe for inventing a teasmade!
1) Sit down to write: Put on timer for Teasmade / Coffeemade(My preference is aSage kettle.)
2) *Bing*: Break + Tea. 
3) Result: Profit!
If only I could get an App to provide freshly made warm biscuits to dunk too. 
Sort of a combined Pomodoro technique with a cuppa ready for you at the end. What’s not to love?
* To Nerd it to 11 you can combine tea/coffeemades with aWeMo plug, IFTTTCode and your Do! Appto hit a button on your phone and get tea. (I’ll post the code here at a later date)
5) Folding desk of Awesome
When I was a kid my dad made me an open sided wooden box to use as a portable desk so that even if I was sitting 3 ft away from the television (common) I was at a good angle for my back and could get my homework done. It was my favorite Christmas present ever.
[ Let’s take a moment to recognise how awesome my parents were again - and how I totally didn’t appreciate it at the time.]
Writing stories and drawing while curled cross-legged on the floor like a super-productive yogi is now my most comfortable operating position. So over the years I have never liked permanent desks.
Here are my recommended portable and fold-able desks available for purchase for those of your without woodworking skills or handy parents.
Wall mounted desks take up little room and if you’re savvy can be disguised by the room divider!  
For those of you not renting a cupboard in London (where nailing anything to the wall is a big no-no unless you want to lose the deposit you sold a kidney to round up in the first place) I’d suggest something that has the air of a Mattel Transformer, but for nerds. I give you my personal favourite folding desk.
If you have a black AMEX maybe you can commission this beauty. (Ultimate Advance Spend Plan: Louis VuittonBespoke Desk Case) 
6) Lighting the scene
I like to adapt my lighting to the scene I’m writing. For example I set a warm light for a scene that is full of love or sunlight, or cold light for something indoors or utilitarian. 
Phillips’ Hue system is pretty damn ingenious and allows for adjusting the multiple lights to illuminate a space with every colour in the spectrum - including flickering candle light if you combine with the hue party app. They also have several products that don’t require wires. Which makes for excellent nooking. The Apps are user-friendly to even the most technophobic user, and for those who need a physical button you can add these switches to the system with minimum effort. 
The portable table lampis my favorite for mood setting and is easily set up in a nook.
Talking about flickering candle light, if you’re writing a scene where this is required I can’t recommend electronic candles enough. All the light, none of the waxy mess.
7) Silence
In a busy space it can be hard to find the right level of white noise to cancel out the world and sink into the one in your imagination. Personally I work best with music on that takes me into my story (the playlists are endless, thank you Spotify), or some form of nature sounds (rains and storms are the best for me, particularly if i want to shut out tube/bus distractions). Chris Jones’ (Esquire Writer) has a great list. 
But for those of you who need true silence then short of throwing everyone out of the house or sticking sheets in your ears I would recommend various Noise-Cancelling device orheadphones. 
* By the way I know I haven’t covered seating. Apart from the fact that I want to create a space that is seating independent, I’m saving my dream chairto celebrate something special ;) 
Okay so that’s it. Quite an involved blog i’ll admit, but hopefully useful-slash-interesting.
Thanks for the help from my circle of writery types to provide inspiration. I hope you’ve found this useful. I created apinterest board with links to the above, and might at some point create a YouTube tour of the Nook to cover the points in this blog. Welcome comments. What do you have in your nook? How to you use technology to enable your writing physically and digitally? Have you used the tools above, and what did you think?

Garageband for PC
Unless you're musically skilled, you most likely don't recognize what it feels like to just get an instrument and have the capacity to make something that sort of sounds like music.
Let's be realistic about it, that is not something a considerable lot of us can do but rather since PC turned out to be super smart we've had some different choices. From Guitar Hero to online pianos there have been a couple of various ways we could play at being melodic without really being particularly talented.
There's no doubt as far as I can say that a standout amongst the most intense apparatuses, one that changed the way we took a gander at music creation, was Garageband.
Tumblr media
WHAT DOES IT DO AND WHY SHOULD I CARE?
Garageband was a bizarre expansion to the standard Mac programming things being what they are. Everyone needs to send messages and associate with each other and the thought you would need to store your photographs was, once more, entirely sensible however with Garageband and iMovie Apple truly puts their stake in the ground to put themselves as the PCs for the imaginative ventures.
What was most intriguing was that expert level Video editors or artists won't make their music on this product however it influenced standard mortals to like you or I FEEL like we were experts.
The instruments gave lifted us far over the sort of things accessible on a PC and Garageband specifically enabled you to see music as just straightforward circles, layered up to deliver a tune. It was natural to utilize and you could truly make music truly rapidly. For a short minute in the mid 00's I truly thought I would have been a DJ.
Evidently, there's somewhat more to it
Things being what they are, HOW DO I GET Garageband FOR PC?
Be that as it may, before we escape, we have to address something quite clear.
You wouldn't get Garageband on your PC. It's an iOS application and doesn't play pleasantly while being constrained onto a PC. Nonetheless, there are alternatives yet you have to get your work done.

In any case, you're not thoroughly stuck between a rock and a hard place. iPadian is an intriguing bit of programming that enables you to transform your workstation or work area machine into an iPad. It's really vigorous and you can get to applications like Garageband which isn't so intensely fixing to the Apple foundation. This will enable you to play around with your heart's substance and make some excellent music.
Nonetheless, we're not persuaded this is the most ideal approach to encounter Garageband as, similar to such a large amount of Apple programming, it works best since it can team up with other Apple applications.
Garageband FOR PC, Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and Laptops Free Download
Garageband FOR PC, Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and Laptops Free Download
Separate THOSE FEATURES FOR ME!
Yet, allows simply say you do approach Garageband. You will have a great time.
The interface is truly direct with the now pervasive 'course of events' used to give you some place to put your circles. In any case, now Garageband has turned into a marginally more genuine undertaking.
You can record your own voice or even connect it so you can record your own instruments. This implies Garageband basically turns into a straightforward chronicle studio that, while basic, still has much more influence than anything you would have the capacity to get your hands on in reality outside of paying a genuine measure of cash.
You can include loads of impacts which are not simply curiosities, they give you a ton of control over the tone of anything you have recorded and enabled you to make music which sounds the way you need it to.

Join this with incorporation straightforwardly into iTunes and you can have a great deal of fun with Garageband straight out of the container.

I'd jump at the chance to think Garageband has the sort of expectation to learn and adapt that implies you can escape yet as you enhance you will locate an entire host of new highlights that mean the product develops with you.
All in all, WHAT'S THE CATCH?
All things considered, the catch is straightforward. On the off chance that you need to download Garageband for PC you will have a couple of issues. You can't without much of a stretch open it on your PC with a standard emulator however there is an iPad emulator, iPadian that could help you.
The thing with Garageband is that it truly is an effective bit of programming so Windows doesn't generally have something at a similar level, enabling beginners to use an indistinguishable exhibit of controls from a more prepared proficient.
Things being what they are, SHOULD I GET Garageband FOR PC?
In the event that you've at any point fancied yourself as a trying craftsman then you ought to either get hold of a Mac with Garageband or have a go at working with programming like iPadian so you can download Garageband for PC.
You will find that inside minutes you can make tunes that sound adequate that you need to make a couple of increasingly and that is the place the genuine mystery to Garagebands achievement lies.
You can make tunes inside minutes however the music takes somewhat more yet the certainty you will without a doubt pick up from the convenience of the product will mean you WANT to continue persisting.

11 Advanced Techniques for Repurposing Old Content — SEO NYC & Digital Marketing
When it comes to content promotion “hacks,” this is one of my absolute favorites.
So entrepreneurs never touch it again and complete a piece of content. But why do that if you are able to get as much mileage out of one piece of articles?
That is the energy of distributing content.
It is a lot like making passive income. You do the tough job and you continue to reap the advantages.
With content that is applicable, it’s the exact same idea. You make a piece of content utilize it.
That means outcomes and less labour. I guarantee you it is not, although it seems too good to be true.
The best thing about the technique is that you are able to repurpose any type of articles. Articles, videos, checklists–you name it.
Grab a bit of your articles let us look at 11 innovative techniques for repurposing, and you wish to re create.
1. Create a SlideShare deck
SlideShare is an site that showcases slideshows all around the world. It is a excellent way expose your articles and to get your voice heard.
List-type guides or articles work for slide decks. But just about anything will achieve success as a slide deck–you need to repeat it properly.
What is even better is that Barry accommodated this from an old blog post of his:
The content functions as a post and a slide deck. By repurposing the content, Barry set his content.
2. Create a video tutorial
Videos are simple discuss, to view, and store for later. It is possible to see them in your home or on the go. And they do not take long to make.
When you repurpose existing content as a tutorial, the procedure gets even easier. People today like how-to videos, and should you offer a video tutorial, you’ll find a great deal of traffic and shares.
Thus, what kind of content makes for a fantastic video tutorial?
Here are a few more thoughts:
A list post can turn into a list video
Turn a slide deck into a narrated presentation
The only limit is your imagination.
3. Turn your blog posts into an ebook
You be bewildered if I told you to write an ebook. You might not know where to begin or how to compose a ebook.
But should you website, you’ve got an almost finished ebook right before your eyes.
You gathered some blog articles. If this is so, you can .
Ebooks make amazing lead magnets, also you are able to sell them too. I love using ebooks in my personal marketing approaches because of just how elastic (and popular) they’re.
When your readers see an offer to get a free ebook and appear at a site for the very first time, you’ll be automatically positioned by them . And should they download it, you will find an email and a customer out of it.
If you call it a guide, a blueprint, or anything else completely, an ebook is a approach to repurpose content.
4. Alter your slides right into an infographic
But occasionally, infographics may take a while to produce. Blend both nicely, get the visuals, and you have got to get the ideal facts.
You most likely have, in case you’ve got a slide deck. Slides integrate media and present information in a format that is short and sweet.
To begin, you may use a free infographic maker like  Piktochart or Canva. Simply plug from your slides, then format and voila!
(Another tip: It is possible to unite slide decks to make one infographic, or you can divide 1 slide deck into several infographics.)
5. Get your blog articles about the air as podcasts
Podcasting has gotten large and it shows no signs of slowing down.
Listeners do not enjoy fluff.
What greater way to make an podcast event by repurposing a post, compared to?
Pull them out in case you have some in depth blog posts in your archive and dust them off. With scripting, editing, and just a small reformatting, they’ll make excellent podcasts.
Keep in mind that if your articles use lots of media, you are going to need to get a method of conveying that information. So that it sounds ordinary when spoken and you have to rework some of your writing.
It is well worth it, though this option can be somewhat tricky. It’s possible to discuss your podcasts on all types of platforms, such as iTunes, Soundcloud, Stitcher, along with Podbay. And with each platform you are using, you’re sharing your articles.
6. Contain your remark responses in a newsletter
Before being aware of it if you responding to comments in your site, you’re generating content that is helpful.
In my view, this is only one of the strongest “articles hacks” you can utilize. When remarks are responded to by you, you’re not considering creating content–about helping individuals, you’re thinking.
When you take that suggestions that was uncooked and edit it, you have got tools and some powerful strategies.
Readers anticipate advice in newsletters. Pop into a comment (or a few), and you’re going to meet your readers while breathing new life into articles you thought you’d never use again.
7. Use factoids as social media articles
When you maintain a website, you encounter a lot of details. A few of these are little factoids ideal to be classified as social media articles.
Factoids give your readers something new to find out, and they do not take up much space. Statistics, trivia, along with other “did you know?” Kind of facts all function.
Here’s Microsoft using a statistic to spread awareness of Internet unavailability:
A bit goes a very long way. Factoids deserve to become a part of your social media strategy.
8. Share shorter blog posts on Moderate and LinkedIn Pulse
People today think LinkedIn is a location that is stuffy, but it is not. It may become your secret weapon if you use it properly.
Moderate is a popular blogging platform where professionals and experts discuss articles on all sorts of topics. You are going to notice it can be a highly effective tool should you invest a while with it.
Besides SlideShare, another trendy LinkedIn attribute is Pulse. Like on Moderate, you publish a post there and hope it gets featured. Should it, you can get new followers.
9. Make new content out of old
Generally, these previous articles just require a bit of an upgrade to become applicable. It is well worth it to have a look at your archives and see which articles require two or a touch-up.
Listed below are a few ways you can modify old articles:
Locate a new name
Update the post with new facts and figures
Add more substantial articles
Once you’re finished, you may either publish the new article or upgrade the old one (in case it ranks nicely and brings in traffic).
10. Share your old content on social media
Networking sites that are particular work nicely for sharing articles — if you get it done right.
Reddit can drive a lot of traffic, however self-promotion is frowned upon. To combat that, locate a appropriate subreddit, and just post content which you really know will help readers. (you could also attempt Reddit ads.)
Quora is a bit friendlier about self-promotion. As a bonus, even should you discover a question that a piece of your articles replies, you can give a brief answer and then connect to that piece of articles. This is just another great traffic builder.
11. Blend multiple pieces of content into a webinar
Everyone loves a fantastic webinar.
If you have never hosted a webinar, you’re missing out. Webinars communicate your worth to everybody watching and create a high degree of involvement.
It’s super simple to turn slides. It is going to take no job, but you are going to have a item of content.
I suggest merging pieces of content. In case you’ve got a slide deck and also a blog post about the same (or some similar) topic, integrate   both of them into the webinar.
The information you utilize, the more value you’ll have the ability to offer. (But do not overdo it!)
Conclusion
Repurposing content is hands down one of their content marketing strategies I know. This can be a tool–do not be reluctant to use it.
It enables you to prevent one of the worst pitfalls of blogging: rancid content.
Folks allow their well of articles operate dry. Finally is an obsolete assortment of content that is subpar. However, it doesn’t need to be that way.
As living, breathing files, think. They may be changed and enhanced over time.
After I realized this, my blogging strategy was transformed. I knew it could be reused by me in the future if a piece of content done nicely for me.
The next time you create a piece of content, be sure to revisit it down the road. Maybe your article’ll turn .
What is your favorite way or repurposing articles?

This match is much harder compared to the original, and you will receive on its own degree or thankfully pass away trying.
become alpha porn would be perhaps not to be trifled with. Construction to the original's tough-as-nails reputation, crew Ninja's next samurai action rpg extends the original's penchant for penalizing and exceptionally nuanced combat. The protagonist hones the original's distinctive take on the Souls-like devoid of entirely obliterated itself. The outcome is a long, hard slog that will push even the maximum challenge-hungry players into their splitting things since they struggle for each and every inch of ground and become grasp samurai. Inspite of the title, become alpha sex games is really a prequel, showing the secret background of the decades-long phase of war in medieval Japan. While the hushed, glamorous hero decorate, you fight to uncover the key nature of"spirit stones," that grant supernatural ability, and defeat hordes of Yo Kai round the country. The plot, which you chiefly listen through cut-scenes and exposition among missions, comes with an intriguing historic bent, however, it truly is just adhesive to hold the levels jointly. Historically applicable titles such as Nobunaga and Tokugawa perform into the saga, but whatever taste they put in at the moment fades the moment you take control plus it's time to start killing demons. But that is okay. become alpha porn's narrative gives only enough time that you follow together with force you to truly feel as if you're making advancement without becoming in the way of the game play. become alpha porn games's definitive function is the challenge. With core mechanics refined from your bones of dim Souls, become alpha hentai game boils down into a collection of conflicts and duels in a variety of scenarios. These conflicts demand intense precision: Maybe Not just are your attacks and techniques limited by a endurance meter--known as Ki--however any additional strike or mistimed movement will probably render you exposed, usually to an attack that will cost you a significant sum of overall health. As with other Souls-like games, there is a debilitating pleasure in mastering all of the rivals that the match throws your own way. become alpha sex game builds on the superbly diverse scope of choices for creating a personal battling style. The systems return: Every one of these two weapon types offers a distinctive balance amid speed, strength, and scope, that you simply can fine-tune the fly by switching one of three stances (minimal, mid, and high). Each weapon type has its skill tree along with progression, for that you get points using it. The core weapon beat continues to be mostly unchanged against the initial, beyond some new talents and two brand new weapons types, the speedy two-handed Switchglaive and extremely speedy double-hatchets. Having said that , the combat is very precise. become alpha porn games requires you get a deep comprehension of most of the strikes your weapon(s) could do, however there is a wide range of attacks and they all put their own spin on how you fight. Additionally, there are multiple general power trees, also character degrees that improve your stats based on earning Amrita from killing enemies. Additionally, become alpha porn game is just a loot game, and that means you're going to always be looking at new weapons using tradeoffs that tweak your stats. It's a lot to manage, however, it becomes manageable since you find your specialty and focus on upgrading the capabilities you would like you like making use of. To get become alpha sex games vets, that is all old-hat: become alpha porn game's main improvements revolve round the notion that disguise can station Yo-Kai spirits. The most essential is that a difficult parry termed the Burst Counter, that makes it possible for one to counter powerful enemy attacks. Every single enemy gets at least 1 attack that's vulnerable to the counter; they are frequently big, strong moves that you'll be enticed to complete. Struggling that impulse and also throwing your self in your enemy to reverse the tide of battle for an instant is essential, making the fight feel tactical and competitive. At the moment when you see an enemy prepping a burst strike, you truly feel successful, as if you have gotten one more on your competitor, even for a second. Because the game is very hard, these minor successes help induce you forwards.
Tumblr media
In addition, you learn Yokai abilities via equippable Spirit Cores that enable you to momentarily transform into the enemies you've killed to use one of their strikes. Significantly more than Ninjutsu and magic, that come back from your initial, Soul Cores put in a lot wider range of contextually abilities that are useful. For example, because the Monkey Yo Kai Enki, you jump in the atmosphere and throw a spear, which is quite book as become alpha hentai game doesn't always have a jump button. As soon as the Yokai get larger --just about every boss provides you a Soul Core--sometimes a giant head or fist or foot magically appears to maim your enemies. They aren't therefore powerful you may lean onto them to acquire a struggle, however those capabilities widely extend the variety of things that you can do. Last but not least, become alpha porn includes a super-powerful"Yokai Alter" transformation, which makes you faster and stronger. Triggering the transformation does not obviate the need for tactics. Though you're invulnerable, both with strikes and accepting damage decrease the total amount of time you've got on your more healthy form. A failed assault in Yokai manner perhaps not just wastes a powerful, slowly and gradually charging advantage, but might also make you suddenly vulnerable when you revert to some previous self because your opponent caught you off-guard. In authentic become alpha porn fashion, even your greatest advantage can develop into a opportunity for your own enemy to find the top hand. It has a lot to learn and, again, you need to get it down to over come exactly what become alpha porn game throws at youpersonally. You may likely make a good deal of blunders and die many, many times. Some times it is going to feel as if you've hit a solid wall and also simply cannot win. In such situations, you need to have a deep breath, then determine the reason you're failing, and adjust the strategy to coincide. Refusing to change weapons or take challenges or otherwise be considerate about how you play will leave you discouraged. The more frustrated you get, the more likely you are going to drop again. Understanding your own skillset is merely a portion of the experience. To really shine, in addition, you will need to comprehend become alpha porn games's extensive environment. There is an immense quantity of variety across a very long campaign. Its twisting, multi-area missions span a variety of surroundings, from burning temples and castles, to armed forces camps, to woods and mountain sides. Many of them change radically as you explore them, giving you a great awareness of"traveling" and accomplishment to masking exactly what seems as though a lengthy distance. One particular historical flat, by way of instance, commences on the hillside outside a castle plus ends at a huge underground cave. Even if the degrees seem similar--you only siege a few castles across 20 campaign assignments --diverse degree design and style in either pathing and detail make every 1 feel different and values conquering. It will help that the channels are somewhat more than pleased, turny dungeon crawls. Most have a minumum of a single area using a distinctive snare or ecological conundrum. In one forest level, for example, a giant owl Yo Kai patrols certain places, alerting enemies if you. Throughout a castle siege, then it's necessary for you to dodge artillery fireplace since you duel enemy soldiers. In addition, there are Dark Realm zones, black and white areas haunted by Yokai which provide a level greater barrier by slowing your Ki regeneration, sprinkled during each degree. It really is only by beating a particular enemy in a Black Forest it is going to dispel permanently, putting more manners for you to make progress that does not refresh whenever you use a shrine (or die). Even for many its own variety, become alpha hentai game stretches most of its material just as much as it can. For each and every mission in its own center campaign, there are just two to 3 side assignments, many of which remix a portion of a story assignment. In addition to there, there are rotating Twilight Missions for high-level people. Plus, up on completing the campaign, you're going to receive access to an issue degree with higher-level enemies and gear. When it's really considered a little annoying in principle to engage in exactly the exact portion of the degree three to four occasions, just about every variant finds modest approaches to change your course along with pose fresh issues to continue to keep things clean. If you should be thinking about wringing absolutely everything out of become alpha porn games--grasp every weapon, then possess the highest degree loot--there are more than enough assignment configurations to go through and soon you have had your fill. Likewise, become alpha sex games never appears to runout of fresh enemies to throw at you. Almost every level has a minumum of one new sort of Yo-Kai for you to study and struggle versus. They run the gamut, from Deadly giant spiders to animalistic demon soldiers like the Enki, a huge fighter using a spear, and the harpy-like Ubume. Each enemy has got its own scope of talents, and also you need to know all about them to be able to expect their attacks and receive the top hand. This practice takes a while --you won't have it on the very first take to, and even following the first success. Every enemy, even even the tiny Gaki demon, that looks like a balding, red-eyed little one, can kill you when you're not attracting your A-game. Dissecting enemy routines and figuring out out how to counter them would be your most adorable joy become alpha sex game offers: There are many enemies using so many diverse strikes to browse guarantee the game never loses its own flavor. Even if the levels seem similar--you simply siege a few castles across 20 campaign assignments --varied level style in both pathing and depth make every 1 feel different and values conquering. You see this most certainly once you move facing every one of the match's incredibly difficult boss experiences. Much like the levels, the directors range widely and so are all sights to behold. In a huge spider with mini-snake arms to some three-story spider with a bull's head, each and every flagship enemy design and style features a lot of personality and is unlike anything you've noticed from the match before. All of them have one thing in common, even though: They're incredibly tricky. Even more than ordinary conflicts, the bosses efficiently demand perfect play for a drawn-out period of time. You want to be able to comprehend every movement they make as they allow it to and know how exactly to respond instantly. Very few took me than several dozen tries, and many took me a while. Sometimes I wondered if maybe a number of those directors ought to be described as a little shorter, because you will find lots of managers exactly where I believed I'd mastered their own routines but couldn't conclude as they landed one one-hit-kill overdue in the struggle. Eventually, that agonizing trouble and also the atmosphere that it evokes are baked to become alpha porn games's DNA, although, and its supervisor struggles stay compelling even as they vex and frustrate. Although it feels like a curse since you can play, it's really a testament that become alpha porn game efficiently catches and keeps the entire focus therefore close to such a long time .
