As much as Nostalgia has tried, it is just too slow for me. The real fun probably only arises in the multiplayer mode and I have never tested that.Īddendum: In the meantime I also know the multiplayer mode. Shmendric: "Marble Madness was for me no more than a small pastime in single player mode. Actually, I find the game interesting, but the controls were rather complicated so that I hardly played it at all."

However, there should be a lot more joy coming up if you can tussle with human opponents. In the meantime you can also scoop up some bonus points by pushing down the computer opponents into the abysse several times. Finding the right path should not be a problem. You need to get a marble from start to finish, not collect any penalties and work your way through the level rather quickly. There is not really the right solution for this game. With the key RUN/STOP the game can be paused.By pressing the fire button you get an extra thrust of speed.The hardware of the arcade original was the Atari System I, which had already been successful for the game Gauntlet. ![]() Designer of the game was Mark Cerny who was only 18 years old when the game was released. In the penultimate level, the laws of gravity are turned upside down, also the rules are different: The player's marble chases miniature version of the enemies and runs up ramps by itself. In the first level, the player merely makes himself familiar with the controls and can gain some points. Altogether there are six difficulty grades in the game: Practice, Beginner, Intermediate, Aerial, Silly and Ultimate. In single player mode, the player's marble is sometimes deflected by marbles that are steered by the computer. Next to that there are also special level effects as ice areas or mechanisms that transport the marble into the air. Pushing other marbles into the abyss gets you bonus points. Plunging into an abyss or a collision with some of the enemies are punished with a penalty. Bumping against walls causes a more or less strong rebound. ![]() The marble first needs to gather monumentum, so speed up, and it can also only break slowly. The marble that is steered by the player lives in a 3D world. Level 2: bonus points for pushing the enemy aside. ![]()

We want to get the conversation flowing about all things book-related, and what better way to do that than by starting with a book that’s fresh on everyone’s minds? So let’s get into it-let’s talk about some books! That’s why we’re launching a blog series where we’ll be sharing some of our most recent favorite reads. Here at, we’re all about embracing our literary obsessions. Have you just finished a great book, and you want to share your thoughts with the world? Well, this is the place to do it. She had found the subject matter so interesting that she immediately knew she wanted to write two books on it instead of just one. Oliver began writing Pandemonium while she was still working on Delirium. The protagonist, Lena Haloway, eagerly anticipates the procedure after her best friend and her mother both died of the “disease.” However, as she takes part in an obligatory pre-surgery tradition called Hana’s Last Fling-a party to celebrate “curing” a person before they have the surgery-she meets Alex and begins to question everything she has been told about love and what it will mean to live in a world without emotion. The story is set in a dystopian future where love-called amor deliria nervosa-is considered a deadly disease which has been eliminated with a mandatory procedure that everyone must undergo when they turn 18. It was preceded by Delirium and followed by Requiem. ![]() I feel a lot of adult fiction looks down on plot as a lesser form of literature.Pandemonium, published in 2012, is Lauren Oliver’s second novel and her first book in the Delirium trilogy. "These novels were strange, ambitious and entertaining. It was on this supposedly grown-up stage that she began reading stories for young adults. Oliver sublimated her ambition to be a novelist by working for Penguin in New York. ![]() "They were roundly rejected by every publisher because they had no plot. It was ridiculous." These fledgling efforts earned Oliver an agent but little else. "My first novel was about a 35-year-old whose wife dies of cancer and who takes up with a prostitute. "I was failing to write these long, depressing books," says the 29-year-old. Arguably the hottest property in Young Adult fiction right now, Oliver spent her own teenage years reading Henry James and nursing a precocious ambition to compose the great American novel. It is tempting to view Lauren Oliver's literary career as working in reverse. ![]() Tabletop air hockey9/20/2023 ![]() ![]() From this, Wittgenstein concluded that people apply the term game to a range of disparate human activities that bear to one another only what one might call family resemblances. In his Philosophical Investigations, Wittgenstein argued that the elements of games, such as play, rules, and competition, all fail to adequately define what games are. Ludwig Wittgenstein was probably the first academic philosopher to address the definition of the word game. Look up game in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. The Royal Game of Ur, Senet, and Mancala are some of the oldest known games. ![]() Many games help develop practical skills, serve as a form of exercise, or otherwise perform an educational, simulational, or psychological role.Īttested as early as 2600 BC, games are a universal part of human experience and present in all cultures. Games generally involve mental or physical stimulation, and often both. Key components of games are goals, rules, challenge, and interaction. Toys generally allow for unrestricted play whereas games present rules for the player to follow. Often, part of the entertainment for children playing a game is deciding who is part of their audience and who is a player. On the other hand, players in a game may constitute their own audience as they take their turn to play. The players may have an audience of non-players, such as when people are entertained by watching a chess championship. They can be played alone, in teams, or online by amateurs or by professionals. ![]() Games are sometimes played purely for enjoyment, sometimes for achievement or reward as well. Many games are also considered to be work (such as professional players of spectator sports or games) or art (such as jigsaw puzzles or games involving an artistic layout such as Mahjong, solitaire, or some video games). The Card Players, an 1895 painting by Paul Cézanne depicting a card game, in Courtauld nstitute of Art (London)Ī game is a structured form of play, usually undertaken for entertainment or fun, and sometimes used as an educational tool. ![]() Pacific northwest native plants9/20/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() This is approximately 40 of the native plants on the islands. Its one of the first times such 'forest gardens' have been identified outside the tropics, and it shows that people were. In 2003, 11 species were known from fewer than 50 mature plants Propagation has since increased the numbers of these plants but 46 plant species, including 31 endemics, remain threatened. A new study reveals that isolated patches of fruit trees and berry bushes in the regions hemlock and cedar forests were deliberately planted by Indigenous peoples in and around their settlements more than 150 years ago.

Unison antibiotics9/20/2023 ![]() ![]() … It will be interesting to see if he finds anything new, or if mutations occur in several different proteins,” Lewin concludes. “Once he has the data, he will be able to expand on what he learned in class about antibiotic resistance, to a molecular level by comparing the ‘evolved’ strains to the original bacterial strain to see which genes acquired mutations. “Marquise will take samples of the bacteria that spread to areas of the plate with higher antibiotic concentrations and isolate their DNA, which will be sent to a sequencing facility associated with another university. “The goal is to study how these mutations are acquired … by completely sequencing the genetic information of the bacteria as they transition between a lower to a higher drug concentration,” Lewin says. “As the bacteria grow on the plate, the only ones that will be able to move to the next area for nutrients are those that have spontaneously acquired a mutation that allows them to grow in an area with a higher antibiotic concentration. “Marquise is using a large plate to grow the bacteria on media that has a gradient of antibiotic concentrations, lowest on both ends, increasing to a concentration 1,000 times the concentration the bacteria are normally able to survive,” Lewin continues. With the increased resistance of bacteria to antibiotics, it is important to understand how they evolve over time to gain the ability to resist antibiotic treatment. ![]() Lewin, a 2006 OWU graduate, says: “The experiment Marquise is performing is a replication of that from the Kishony lab at Harvard Medical School. I’ve learned different adaptations that I could see and have been learning how the bacteria are communicating, how the swarming mechanism happens (when the salmonella moves across the plate in unison), as well as many others.”įor the project, Downing is working with Kiley Dare Lewin, Ph.D., visiting assistant professor of Microbiology, and Laura Tuhela-Reuning, Ph.D., part-time professor of Botany-Microbiology and Zoology. Luckily my coaches have instilled that in me well.” (Downing is a member of the Battling Bishop football team.) Lessons I’ve LearnedĪmong the lessons Downing has learned from his research, he says, is “how to make various kinds of media. “This has taught me I’m going to fail a lot in this career, but I guess it’s how I respond. ![]() “How many things go wrong in research and that even the number of times I failed is nothing in comparison to what is generally expected,” Downing says of what he’s learned. … I plan to present my findings at the Annual Biomedical Research Conference for Minority Students.” My Most Eye-Opening Experiences Maybe learning more can help us better deal with them. “I hope to find out more about the mutations bacteria can develop in response to antibiotics. Superbugs (antibiotic-resistant bacteria) are becoming an issue as fewer and fewer antibiotics are effective against them due to overuse. “I am uncertain of the adaptations that have been made by the bacteria, but I’m certain they are interesting. ![]() “I am working on antibiotic resistance in salmonella,” says Downing, explaining that he is exploring the topic by studying how bacteria adapt in response to a synthetic, broad-spectrum antibiotic called chloramphenicol.

In this line of code we define that in every cycle we monitor the events of the touch event list. The loop function contains only one line of code. If we did not defined touch press events but touch release events, the functions would be: b0.attachPop(b0PopCallback, &b0) The callback function asks: When do I have to executed the predefined functions? Therefore we attach the push event to both objects and define that if the event occurs, the predefined functions should be called. The last part of the setup function is to register the push or pop event callback functions. Also the Nextion library is initialized in the setup function. Because we use the UART communication between the Nextion display and the microcontroller, the baud rate is set to 9600 which is recommended by Nextion. The only difference is that we do not increase the variable, but we reset the variable to 0.Īfter the two functions are defined, we create the setup function in the Arduino IDE. The function for the second button b1 is nearly the same. After we increased the variable, the value of the number component is set to the increased variable with the setValue function. The function to read the number is getValue. ![]() Inside this variable we store the current value of the numberbox object which is the displayed number in the number component. Inside the function, the logic of the script is pretty easy. The touch press event is the push callback and the touch release event would be a pop callback. The function is called for the b0 object and in the Nextion Editor we defined that the component should have a touch press event and not a touch release event. That is why I call the function b0PushCallback. I like to give my functions a predefined structured name. ![]() The first function we create is the function for b0 that increase the number of the display. Now for each element of the nex_listen_list, we have to create a function, that is called when the event for this object is triggered. In this example we include the two buttons and also NULL is included every time to this list. The next part in the script is to create a touch event list called nex_listen_list to define what objects trigger an event. It is useful to create more than one font for your project. In the generator you can choose from different fonts and select the height.
