This book argues that ultimately feminism, friendship, and faith in one's own superpowers are all we really need to turn things right side up again.Ī BEST/MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF 2018 BY: Glamour Brittney Cooper is a writer, teacher, and public speaker. In Brittney Cooper's world, neither mean girls nor fuckboys ever win. And it took another intervention, this time staged by one of her homegirls, to turn Brittney into the fierce feminist she is today. When Cooper learned of her grandmother's eloquent rage about love, sex, and marriage in an epic and hilarious front-porch confrontation, her life was changed. Cooper is a generous writer, affording even those she rages against good humored compassion, but never letting. It reminds women that they don't have to settle for less. Eloquent Rage is as exhilarating as it is vulnerable, a crucial book that tackles friendship and feminism, Hillary Clinton and Sandra Bland, violence and family, sex and faith and race and gender, all with vibrant grace and honesty. It's what makes Michelle Obama an icon.Įloquent rage keeps us all honest and accountable. It's what makes Beyoncé's girl power anthems resonate so hard. Black women's eloquent rage is what makes Serena Williams such a powerful tennis player. But Cooper shows us that there is more to the story than that. In the Black feminist tradition of Audre Lorde, Brittney Cooper reminds us that anger is a powerful source of energy that can give us the strength to keep on fighting.įar too often, Black women's anger has been caricatured into an ugly and destructive force that threatens the civility and social fabric of American democracy. So what if it's true that Black women are mad as hell? They have the right to be. Michael Eric Dyson: " Cooper may be the boldest young feminist writing today.and she will make you laugh out loud." I was waiting and she has come in Brittney Cooper." Melissa Harris Perry: "I was waiting for an author who wouldn't forget, ignore, or erase us black girls. There is so much about her analysis that I relate to and grapple with on a daily basis as a Latina feminist."ĭamon Young: "Like watching the world's best Baptist preacher but with sermons about intersectionality and Beyoncé instead of Ecclesiastes." Far too often, Black women’s anger has been caricatured into an ug. Joy Reid, Cosmopolitan: "A dissertation on black women's pain and possibility."Īmerica Ferrera: "Razor sharp and hilarious.

The Stow-N-Go Luggage Organizer is available on Amazon. I love a good invention, and this one offers one more way to secure peace of mind before I kick back with my Bloody Mary and a rousing viewing of Serendipity. Has 8 pockets for easy accessibility and good organization capability. Telescoping handle can completely retract into a zippered compartment. With its durable construction, space-maximizing capabilities, and unparalleled versatility, the $33 you spend on this organizer is unbelievably worth it (and hey, that’s the same price as a really mediocre club sandwich at the airport). 8 Pocket Rolling Duffel Check Price Simple Yet Solid An affordable duffel that performs well and comes in a variety of colors. Say goodbye to rummaging through your suitcase and throwing your rumpled clothes all over the floor of your Airbnb, and hello to stress-free travel with everything at your fingertips. You like EFFICIENCY? This thing is all about efficient packing and feeling like a damn adult when you arrive at your destination and, to reiterate, have a full hanging wardrobe in like, three seconds. Made from durable nylon fabric, the luggage organizer is designed to withstand the rigors of travel, ensuring that it will be your trusted companion for countless adventures. Have you ever packed three weeks worth of clothing for three completely different climates into a carry-on bag? I have! Carry-on-only is the only way to travel, regardless of the duration of your trip. I am a frequent flyer, and no matter how long the trip is, I will do everything in my power to not check a bag. But what’s the worst part about flying? Is it the people acting like the boarding groups being called is a violent contact sport? The layovers, delays, and sprints to catch your flight? In my humble opinion, the worst part about flying is the fear that you will have to check your bag against your will and be separated, potentially for days or forever, from your most needed and precious possessions. The best part of flying is obviously kicking back, drinking a Bloody Mary in your seat, and watching the stupidest rom-com of the year that you would never pay actual money to see in theaters (then still finding yourself crying at the ending for some reason?).

This protects both Twitch and the creator from receiving a DMCA strike and can be appealed and unmuted if you own the rights. Like YouTube, Twitch has a system that scans VoDs and mutes sections of them when copyrighted material is used. It’s important to know them both so you can handle each in the correct way. Twitch takes two major actions when copyrighted music is being used in stream, Muted VoDs and DMCA Strikes. This makes it extremely important for streamers to only use material that you have full rights to. Twitch Music LicensingĪfter creators began getting swarmed with DMCA Strikes in 2020, Twitch has been taking a huge stand against copyrighted material. Today, we are going to go over how music licensing works on both platforms, the risks you take with playing copyrighted music, and how to avoid getting copyright and DMCA strikes on your account. Both Twitch and YouTube are standing firm on the need for music licensing.īut between the two giants of Twitch and YouTube, music licensing operates a bit differently. If you are playing music without this, you risk getting strikes that can lead to your account being shut down permanently. The general rule of thumb for any content creator is to only play music that is copyright free or that you own the license to use. This changed the landscape of what was allowed in streams and videos forever. Creators of all sizes started to get hit with DMCA strikes that put their entire channels at risk of being permanently banned. For years, creators on YouTube and Twitch played music without much worry, until it finally came to a head in 2020. So it would be wise for streamers to cross their Ts and dot their Is on copyright issues, because Twitch is taking off the training gloves.Playing music on stream or in a YouTube video is risky. The new DMCA guidelines are a strong signal from Twitch that they will be taking DMCA very seriously going forward. Just this past week, Game Done Quickly submitted a DMCA strike against Summit for co-streaming their content on his channel. Other streamers have faced DMCA challenges related to co-streaming events and video content that they weren't supposed to. Many streamers were upset in June when they were forced to remove most of their saved clips, for fear that they may be playing copyrighted music in some of their past clips. Over the past few months, Twitch has been stepping up its enforcement of DMCA claims on its platform, after receiving thousands of claims from music publishers back in late May. To provide judicial determinations showing that an account holder is an infringer, or a repeat infringer, on the Twitch service, please forward it to our Designated Copyright Agent " Twitch also stated, "if a relevant court rules that an account holder is an “infringer” or “repeat infringer” on Twitch, we will take that ruling as conclusive under our Repeat Infringer Policy. They clarified, "Strikes are not permanent, but rather are associated with an account for enough time for Twitch to determine whether the account holder is engaging in repeated infringement such that termination is necessary under this Policy." "Furthermore, we may in appropriate cases and at our sole discretion, limit access to the Twitch service and/or terminate the accounts of any users who blatantly and egregiously infringe the intellectual property rights of others, whether or not repeat infringement has occurred."Īccounts will receive a strike when Twitch receives a "complete notification of infringement" without a counter-notification or retraction of the claim. "We will terminate an account holder’s access to the Twitch Service if that user is determined by Twitch to be a “repeat infringer” of copyrighted works on the service – under our policy, a user will be considered a repeat infringer if they accrue three copyright strikes," Twitch explained in their updated DMCA guidelines.

Yet even with strong evidence for MAT, there is debate over whether to offer MAT for people struggling with opioids. Studies have also shown that MAT reduces the risk of overdose death by 50 percent and increases a person’s time in treatment. “Detox alone often doesn’t work for someone with an opioid use disorder,” said Marlies Perez, chief of substance use disorder compliance at the California Department of Health Care Services, who estimated that it might be a realistic option for only 15 out of 100 people. As opioids themselves, these drugs reduce craving and stop withdrawals without producing a significant high, and are dispensed in a controlled way. That’s why the medical community has largely embraced the use of methadone and buprenorphine - known medically as medication-assisted treatment, or MAT - combined with counseling, as the “gold standard” for treating opioid addiction. Going through “cold turkey” withdrawal is, not surprisingly, impossible for many. Subscribe to KHN's free Morning Briefing. I did this so often my mother once told me in frustration, “You show up, throw up and then leave.” But after a night of no sleep, rolling on the floor convulsing while vomiting into a steel mixing bowl, I’d beg them for gas money to drive the 300 miles back to where I lived and a little extra cash for heroin. As I walked out, a staff member said something to the effect of “I didn’t think you’d last long.”Īfter my parents moved out of town, in part to get away from me, I would show up at their new home five hours away with big hopes of kicking the habit and starting a new life. My first time in a detox facility, I made it an hour, if that. But when morning came, I’d rarely last an hour, let alone the day, before finding a way to get heroin. Quitting heroin was my plan every night when I went to sleep. You crave opioids, not because you necessarily want the high, but because they’d bring instant relief. These telltale signals - minor annoyances in and of themselves - set off a desperate panic: I’d better get heroin or some sort of opioid into my body as soon as possible, or else I would experience a sickness so terrible I would do almost anything to prevent it: cold sweats, nausea, diarrhea and body aches, all mixed with depression and anxiety that make it impossible to do anything except dwell on how sick you are. For me, the telltale sign that the heroin was wearing off was a slight tingling sensation when I urinated. I should know.įor many users, full-blown withdrawal is often foreshadowed by a yawn, or perhaps a runny nose, a sore back, sensitive skin or a restless leg. This story can be republished for free ( details).ĭetoxing off heroin or opioids without medication is sheer hell. I use a 18 oz break cue and a 17.75 oz play cue. This is around 17oz but many prefer 19oz. Thus, there is a minimum weight for the cue stick that works well. Where mass comes in is when the cue stick becomes so light that the weight of the forearm so outweights the stick you cannot easily feel what the stick is doing and you fail to place the tip on the CB at the correct spot. Thus, there is nothinig the player can do with the energy transfer equation, except deliver the tip to the CB as fast as possible. Since the CB leaves the tip in less than 2 milliseconds, the shock wave has not even arrived at the players hand by the time the CB is on its way. Durring this compression the energy transfer takes place. Thus a larger mass in the cue stick is accelerated slower by the player and delivers less speed to the CB, and a light cue is accelerated faster.Īs teh tip impacts the CB, the tip, shaft and a tiny portion of the CB compress. Newton figured out that f=m*a and thus a=f/m. The faster this cue tip moves the faster the cue ball travels. The physics of the problem relates to energy transfer through the cue tip. I hope to post more rather than just asking for help. I have heard that phenolic tips are very picky about chalk, but will pair up nicely with a rub from a Masters chalk.įeedback is very appreciated. I would just like to know if you guys have any feedback from this brand of cue and its specifications, and the website as well (reliability, Canada shipping, etc.). And the speed is probably because I try to lift up the cue butt just before the break strike in which gravity (weight factor) gets a part in the form (Wu does this, Bustamante and de Luna as well). Though I'm not a massive guy (5'8'' 170lbs), I found that I can get to my maximum speed and control with heavier cues, and with the 20oz cue, I found myself being able to plant the cue ball in the middle area more often. Searching for break cues again, I've discovered the Elite Heavy 27 oz cue with a phenolic tip. I've tried a 20 oz cue at a billiard store and saw significant improvement in the speed and control of my break. And with being 18 and paying for school loans, I don't have that kind of money to just spend on a break cue. I found out that Wu Chia Ching (which I'm using as a beginner's reference) uses a Predator shaft with a Mezz cue butt. I've been researching for different break cues throughout the internet. In these two months, I have been practicing my break using a cheap China-made 19oz cue that came with the table. Maybe because I have the Filipino billiard blood lol. My parents bought me a $900 wooden slate table 2 months ago and I've been addicted to practicing ever since. I doubt anyone would need my advice with my experience level anyway.Īnywho, I've been playing for 2 months now. Upload a document from your computer or cloud storage.

The game is an easy teach with a couple characters that are beginner level and some that are more advanced when you feel comfortable. If you enjoy competitive puzzle games or any games of the sort, you will have a blast playing this. Just know going forward, that there’s a decent amount of luck in the game. I rather enjoy the tension of being out of AP and sweating each pull. I’m not bothered by the luck in this game. Your board will fill up rather quickly due to not having enough AP to assist. If you’re not clearing any stars and other people are, you’ll fall behind and it’s a tough hole to climb out of. It’s happened to me on a couple of occasions that I have three empty spots in one column and I just so happen to pull a 4 bullet that hits me.Īnother instance of luck is stars, sometimes they are hard to come by. Don’t get me wrong, there is some strategy in Bullet but you have to go into the game knowing that each bullet you pull could be your last. There is a strong amount of luck in this game. Speaking of luck…let’s talk about strategy. Run out of AP? Then you’re relegated to the luck of the draw. If you clear a bullet with a star, you regain 1 AP. Some of the bullets have a star printed on them. Spending your AP the correct way is crucial since it doesn’t refill until the following rounds although there is one way you can regain AP. Some characters allow you to spend AP to draw cards from your deck expanding your options. For the majority of characters, you can spend 1 AP to move a bullet left, right or down in your sight to prevent a column from being full and/or setting up bullets to complete card requirements. During your turn, before pulling bullets, you can spend AP (Action Points) to manipulate the bullets.Įach character has a certain amount of AP they can spend on their turn. The way to avoid taking damage in this game is using your special abilities located on your characters sideboard. Obviously, the more bullets that are placed in your bag increases the likelihood of you taking damage.īut there are ways to mitigate that damage. The tension gets high on your turn as you see the bullets start to stack up that are heading your way. The better you are at clearing your board, the more you will hurt your opponent - and of course, the same thing happens to you based on your opponent’s skill. After all players have finished their turn, you will take a number of bullets out of the main bag based on what round you’re on AND you will get all the bullets that the person to your right cleared. The number of abilities set out are equal to the number of players and it’s on a first come first serve basis so the quicker you are able to finish the more options you will have.īut there’s one more twist. Abilities range from clearing a bullet in your sight to drawing more cards out of your deck and the best part is it’s free to play. Finishing the round gives you the satisfaction of grabbing a special ability you can use on your turn.Īll the abilities are really powerful and super helpful. Sounds simple enough, right? Ah, but the trick is what happens when you clear those bullets.Īs you are clearing bullets, you stack them in a pile next to you. Get hit a number of times depending on your character and you are out of the game. If, while placing a Bullet, you can’t add it to your board, you take a hit. The catch is that when placing a Bullet in your site, you have to skip over any spots that have bullets in them. Each bullet has a color and number, the color represents what column to place the bullet in and the number represents what row the bullet will go. For each player’s turn, they will be simultaneously pulling Bullets (discs) from their personal bag. Once requirements are met you are able to play a card and clear any bullets the card references. The deck of cards associated with each character gives you pattern requirements. Each Heroine is unique and comes with their own abilities and deck. In Bullet you take on the role of one out of eight heroines. But what about a competitive cardboard game where completing a row of blocks carries over to your opponent? Could it be done? Competitive games where you try to make block shaped pieces fit on your board. Sure, there have been Tetris style board games before Bullet. Mario, Super Puzzle Fighter, Yoshi’s Cookie, but I’ve never played a board game that game me the feeling of a competitive puzzle fighter. When I was young, I loved games like Tetris, Dr. Not long ago, a friend brought over Bullet to play. Geometry Dash is a lot more than just meets the eye, people are still playing the game 7 years after its release for valid reasons, here are but a few: Once purchased, the Steam client will provide on-screen instructions for installation of the software.

Getting past each level will earn the players rewards, and hidden among these rewards are 3 secret coins, which are used to unlock the three additional levels. The original game initially came out with 7 levels, currently it has 21, 18 of which are unlocked upon installation. There are also pads and orbs which enable the player to jump mid-air, or even automatically. Portals let the player switch vehicles, change the direction of flow of gravity, alter the size of their vehicles, and even mirror their current motion. Using a vehicle called the wave will allow players to move up and down in a V shaped trajectory, almost similarly to the ship.Īpart from the vehicles, there are also other add-ons that either make things easier or complicate things for the player. Then there is the Spider, which is similar to the ball but instead of switching positions up and down it uses teleportation. There is a cube, which once used allows the player to jump a specific height, there is a robot which would allow a player to control the size of the jump, a ship that lets you move up and down freely, a ball which changes a players position from bottom to top and vice versa, and a UFO which is basically a combination of a cube and a ship. Moreover, there are certain in game-boosts, or vehicles that the player may use to their advantage. While the icon will move forward automatically, the only control the player will have over it is to make it jump, and while this sounds very simple and boring it actually isn’t since the player must time their jumps accordingly in order to dodge the obstacles properly, the obstacles also begin to appear more frequently once the game progresses. The players are in control of a square shaped icon, and using touch controls, a mouse and keyboard, or even a controller. Although the game has had many sequels since its initial release, the layout of all the games is technically the same. |
