To hear that you did not like the conferencing that is provided in Readers I saw you make a presentation recently, and I was surprised I hope this re-issue encourages responses from teachers who may have found some ways of accomplishing that in our seriously disrupted educational system). We definitely want to encourage kids to replace some of that lost schooling with independent reading but it is essential that teachers and parents find ways to guide students' reading efforts so that they take on books that are sufficiently challenging and that they receive sufficient guidance so they don't miss important and subtle content and craft considerations. The reading conference method might seem more useful to some in this unfortunate climate. Of course, since this was released we have been immersed in a COVID crisis that has greatly reduced the amount of reading instruction that children are receiving. This blog entry was met by a great deal of controversy with some teachers agreeing with me and others arguing that you can deeply engage a text even if you haven't read it. ![]() Blast from the Past: First released on Septemre-issued January 22, 2022. ![]()

It looks like it has the 'women as reward' trope, the 'lingerie is not armour' trope, male gaze, male fantasy, content designed by men to titillate a presumed straight male audience, and a lot of sexual objectification of women. ![]() I was wondering, if one thinks about the currently popular ideas on how western video games should handle women characters, and how those ideas would apply to this game, then this game goes against the current trends in western game design. And nobody seems to mind that it is on mainstream websites like kickstarter or steam. I'm not aware of any other porn games that look this ambitious. So there is this porn game that has been doing well on kickstarter lately. r/CoOpGaming - A community for co-op gaming r/xboxone - Xbox-specific subreddit for general Xbox news and discussion r/playstation, /r/PS4 & /r/PS5 - PlayStation-specific subreddits for general PlayStation news and discussion r/pcgaming - PC gaming-specific subreddit for general PC gaming news, discussion and gaming tech support r/nintendo - Nintendo-specific subreddit for general Nintendo news and discussion r/shouldibuythisgame - Find out what's worth getting. r/gamingsuggestions - Go here to help you find your next game to play r/gaming4gamers - Discussion, bar the Hivemind
![]() ![]() Neuropsychopharmacological and psychological researches on pornography addiction conducted between 20 have concluded that most studies have been focused entirely or almost exclusively on men in anonymous settings, and the findings are contradicting. ASAMs position is inconsistent with the American Association of Sex Educators, Counselors, and Therapists, who cite lack of strong evidence for such classification, describing ASAM as not informed by "accurate human sexuality knowledge". Men without CSB who had a long history of viewing pornography exhibited a less intense response to pornographic images in the left ventral putamen, possibly suggestive of desensitization. These regions include the amygdala and the ventral striatum. BOLD fMRI results have shown that individuals diagnosed with compulsive sexual behavior (CSB) show enhanced cue reactivity in brain regions associated traditionally with drug-cue reactivity. Īccording to the American Society of Addiction Medicine, some psychological and behavioral changes characteristic of addiction brain changes include addictive cravings, impulsiveness, weakened executive function, desensitization, and dysphoria. A study on problematic Internet pornography viewing used the criteria of viewing Internet pornography more than three times a week during some weeks, and viewing causing difficulty in general life functioning. It included such criteria as time consumed by sexual activity interfering with obligations, repetitive engagement in sexual activity in response to stress, repeated failed attempts to reduce these behaviors, and distress or impairment of life functioning. These are detailed in Opposition to Pornography.Ī proposed diagnosis for hypersexual disorder includes pornography as a subtype of this disorder. Pornography use has also been associated to many issues with Sexual Satisfaction, Marital Quality, and Gender Violence. Diagnostic criteria have been proposed for other behavioral addictions, and these are usually also based on established diagnoses for substance abuse and dependence. ![]() ![]() The only diagnostic criteria for a behavioral addiction in the current Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders are for pathological gambling, and they are similar to those for substance abuse and dependence, such as preoccupation with the behavior, diminished ability to control the behavior, tolerance, withdrawal, and adverse psychosocial consequences. Pornography addiction is often defined operationally by the frequency of pornography viewing and negative consequences. Universally accepted diagnostic criteria do not exist for pornography addiction or problematic pornography viewing. ![]() Individuals may report depression, social isolation, career loss, decreased productivity, or financial consequences as a result of their excessive Internet pornography viewing impeding their social life. Problematic Internet pornography viewing is viewing of Internet pornography that is problematic for an individual due to personal or social reasons, including the excessive time spent viewing pornography instead of interacting with others and the facilitation of procrastination. While the World Health Organization's ICD-11 (2022) has recognized compulsive sexual behaviour disorder (CSBD) as an "impulsive control disorder", CSBD is not an addiction, and the American Psychiatric Association's DSM-5 (2013) and the DSM-5-TR (2022) do not classify compulsive pornography consumption as a mental disorder or a behavioral addiction. Pornography may be part of compulsive sexual behavior with negative consequences to one's physical, mental, social, or financial well-being. Pornography addiction is the scientifically controversial application of an addiction model to the use of pornography.

Every corner of Izuhara’s prefectures has collectibles hidden among the various forests, beaches, cliffs, and fields. When you get to the top, interact with the shrine to claim your rewards.The titular island in Ghost of Tsushima is begging to be explored. You cannot traverse the normal path to (some) Shinto Shrines, so you’ll need to use your Grappling Hook (keep progressing in the main story if you don’t have it) to climb around the cliffs. Typically found on mountains or cliffs, they offer powerful Charms and Wax Wood, a rare crafting material that Bowyers use to upgrade Jin’s bow. Shinto Shrines are one of the most involved locations you’ll find. Shinto Shrines Jin at the top of a mountain, standing at a Shinto Shrine Image: Sucker Punch Productions/Sony Interactive Entertainment via Polygon ![]() Just walk up to one, interact with it, and claim your new style. ![]() Like Haikus, Pillars of Honor are purely cosmetic. Interacting with them gives you more Sword Kits, which let you customize the look of your blades’ sheathes. Pillars of Honor are usually in secluded areas, like small islands, cliffs, or vast fields. Pillars of Honor A Pillar of Honor, which offers Jin a new sheathe color for his blades Image: Sucker Punch Productions/Sony Interactive Entertainment via Polygon Just walk through the front door, climb up the ladder until you reach the top, and light the Lighthouse. There are only a handful of Lighthouses in Tsushima, and lighting them doesn’t get you much. Climbing and lighting them increases your Legend. You’ll find Lighthouses around the shores of Tsushima, usually on high cliffs or overlooking the sea below. Lighthouses Jin standing just under a Lighthouse Image: Sucker Punch Productions/Sony Interactive Entertainment via Polygon Follow the fox and it will eventually lead you to the Inari Shrine, which you can then honor (and then pet the fox for being very good, don’t forget!) If you stumble upon a shrine before meeting the fox, you can still honor it and skip the first step. When you stumble upon a Fox Den, the fox will pop out and wait for you. Completing Inari Shrines increases your ability to hold more Charms, and eventually gives you powerful Charms to slot into your new sockets. Inari Shrines usually appear in the woods, and are actually two locations: the primary location with the Fox Den, and the secondary location where it shows you the shrine. ![]() Inari Shrines (Fox Dens) Jin follows a fox along some cliffs Image: Sucker Punch Productions/Sony Interactive Entertainment via Polygon Once Jin is in the water, the game will ask you to reflect on a part of Jin’s life, and he’ll monologue a bit before it’s time to move on. When you find one on the map, walk up to it and interact with it. There is no minigame when you bathe in a Hot Spring. Bathing in a Hot Spring increases your maximum health, and lets you in on what Jin is thinking (you also get to see his butt). Hot Springs appear in secluded, peaceful areas. Hot Springs Bathing in a Hot Spring lets Jin reflect on his life Image: Sucker Punch Productions/Sony Interactive Entertainment via Polygon After you select three, Jin will read the Haiku aloud, and you can move on. When you sit down, look around the environment to select different passages. Writing a Haiku in Ghost of Tsushima is much easier than real life. Writing a Haiku awards you with a new headband - and you can read your Haiku whenever you look at the headband in the menu. Haikus appear in scenic areas, like on a hill or on top of a mountain. Haikus Jin sits to write a Haiku, overlooking a bamboo forest Image: Sucker Punch Productions/Sony Interactive Entertainment via Polygon You can repeat this process until you get it right. Memorize the order, and then hit the buttons as fast as you can. The buttons will appear from left to right on the bamboo and disappear as soon as you start pressing. To complete a Bamboo Strike, you need to hit the PlayStation buttons in the correct order very quickly. Bamboo Strikes increase your Resolve, which lets you heal more and use more abilities, so you should do them whenever you find them. Bamboo Strikes Jin prepares for a Bamboo Strike, a test of his Resolve Image: Sucker Punch Productions/Sony Interactive Entertainment via Polygonīamboo Strikes appear inside or just on the outskirts of towns and villages. Here’s what each of the seven exploration locations (which you can track in the game’s Collections > Exploration menu) does in Ghost of Tsushima. You’ll need to visit several of each to grow your Legend and save Tsushima from the Mongol. Ghost of Tsushima is filled with exploration locations, and each of them - Bamboo Strikes, Haikus, Hot Springs, Inari Shrines (Fox Dens), Lighthouses, Pillars of Honor, and Shinto Shrines - empowers Jin and his abilities. ![]() ![]() I think the Imprezza wagons are a better value, and better overall package than the P5 (better crash tests, better reliability, better resale value, etc.). Also, if I wanted to give up the cargo capacity of my wagon I'd buy a used SL2 or new ION, not the P5. Those 50 series tires on the P5 would just get me a lot more bent rims and flat tires here in pothole filled Philly. In 1993 the wagons got the same handling package and 60 series touring tires as the SC2 and SL2, and I switched to Dunlop D60/A2s over 80K miles ago, which were even better. I still think I'll stick with my 1st Gen SW2, which handles fine for me. There was/is alot of frustration with Saturn for it. Saturn never really came out with a sporty S series. Even the non turbo model would be decent. The Pro 5 is a good second choice, as well as the Subaru impreza wagon. I wan't to get back into a polymer saturn. I think the ION will be much better than the S series. The interior/seats of the protege are much, much, better. It is a great economy car, that in the "2" models could handle well. It was refined over the years, but that's all. Are really the same set up as the first model year. It never really changed that much to last years model. The S series was designed in the late 80's. It was harsh over some bimps, but felt very connected to the road. (Yes he is one of the maniacs you see weaving in and out going 80 mph) My friend is a leadfoot and was always pulling ahead of traffic on the NJ turnpike. I haven't driven but have been a passenger. The Protege 5 looks good with the sunroof, 16" wheels, and rear discs, but the heavier curb weight probably offsets the slightly larger engine.Ī friend of mine traded in a 95 SL2 for a 01' pro5. The conclusion that I drew is that the SW2 has a larger cargo area and is a lighter car. It probably sticks to the road pretty well I made the switch to Dunlop SP A2s a week ago, and it was worth it My guess is that the car's "fun factor" is based on the available sunroof, front and rear disc brakes, agressive body styling, and 195/50R16 wheels with Dunlop® tires. The Protege has a 2.0L DOHC 16-valve 4 cylinder that produces 130 hp 6000 rpm and 135 lb ft of torque 4000 rpm. Gas mileage with a manual is 25/31 and automatic is 25/30. The Protege 5 has a curb weight of 2716 lbs with a manual, and 2749 lbs with the automatic. The trunk space is smaller in the Protege 5. I never drove one, but here is what I took away from it. 2000, and shortly after, Mazda released the Protege 5. ![]() ![]() ![]() Accumulated rings and Red Star Rings can be used to purchase power-ups, upgrades, or unlock additional playable characters. Rings can be collected throughout the levels or purchased via microtransactions, along with red star rings. The game features 3D graphics, including a level set in an environment based on the Seaside Hill level of Sonic Heroes. Players are able to share and compete for position on leaderboards. Unlike other games in the series, Sonic automatically moves forward at all times, similar to Sonic and the Secret Rings. The player directs Sonic or another character through levels, collecting rings and avoiding obstacles and enemies. Sonic Dash is an endless runner, similar to Temple Run (2011) and Rayman Jungle Run (2012). Above, in an early version of the game, Sonic the Hedgehog is running in the left lane on a beach. Gameplay In Sonic Dash, players select a lane to run in to collect rings and avoid obstacles. Sequels have also been produced based on Sonic Boom and Sonic Forces. Hardlight continues to support the game with updates, additional characters, and features. Although the game received mixed reviews, Sonic Dash reached 500 million downloads in September 2021. Selection of the game for development came from the insistence of parent company Sega Sammy Holdings president and COO Haruki Satomi. Hardlight, a British development studio owned by Sega, began developing Sonic Dash after completing Sonic Jump. Rings, which can be earned through gameplay or purchased in app, allow access to upgrades and additional characters. Players can compete for higher positions on leaderboards. In mission mode, players must complete objectives. The goal of Sonic Dash is to avoid obstacles and enemies while collecting rings. It was initially released as a paid application, but was made free-to-play a month after its iOS release. The game was released in March 2013 for iOS, November 2013 for Android, and December 2014 for Windows Phone and Windows, along with an arcade release in November 2015 as Sonic Dash Extreme. It is Hardlight's second Sonic the Hedgehog game, the first being 2012's Sonic Jump.

My attitude is that if Windows does not need to be reactivated, then Briscad should not either. (How about running checkdsk on a hard drive, and finding out that a program will never work again.) I have requested a less aggressive form of copy protection be used in Bricscad. I have plenty of stories about software that I could not get to work after minor changes. Unter dem Feld License file location wird der Speicherpfad der Lizenzdatei (.lic-Datei) angezeigt, die bei der Aktivierung der BricsCAD Netzwerklizenz automatisch abgelegt wird.

However, you can install a Windows or Linux network license server to serve licenses on Mac client computers. Note: Reprise Software does not offer a network license server for Mac computers. Once again, they re-set the license so I could install the program on the desktop system. Once the network license is activated and the server is started, you can use the network license in BricsCAD on a client computer. I was able to re-activate, but now the 2 activations (you are allowed to install it on 2 computers provide there is not concurrent use.) were used up, so when I tried to install it on the replacement desktop system, I once again had to ask for the license to be re-set.
