![]() The XL black offers only slight savings at $23 for 550 pages or 4.2 cpp. You can reduce color ink costs significantly with the XL cartridges, which are $18 for 750 pages, or 2.4 cpp. That’s just shy of 15 cents for a four-color page. The standard cyan, magenta, and yellow cartridges cost $10 each and last for 300 pages (3.3 cents per page), while the standard black costs $12 and lasts for 250 pages, or 4.8 cents per page (cpp). Ink costs for the Photosmart 7520 are about average for a mainstream inkjet. Even draft-setting documents, which issue forth considerably faster, are more than legible. Text is sharp and dark at default settings, and nearly laser-like at best settings. Monochrome graphics lacked a distracting green or purple tinge. Photos, printed using a high-quality setting, feature an elegantly cool color palette and excellent detail in even dark areas. The Photosmart 7520’s output quality is among the best we’ve seen from an inkjet. Scanning and copying speeds are a tad faster than average compared with other inkjet MFPs we’ve tested. A letter-size, high-resolution photo printed on the Mac to glossy paper took about 2.5 minutes (a middling rate of 0.4 ppm). The same photo on letter-size photo paper took 62 seconds (0.98 ppm). A 4-by-6-inch photo printed at default settings on plain (letter-size) paper took about 16 seconds (or 3.75 ppm). We chose a higher-quality setting for printing color photos, producing slower times but better output quality (see below). Monochrome pages of text and text with graphics emerged at 9.5 pages per minute (ppm) on the PC and 9 ppm on the Mac. ![]() The unit achieved average to better speeds in our tests. The Photosmart can print and scan in duplex (both sides of the page), but duplex scanning requires two passes. However, the lid for the A4 flatbed scanner doesn’t telescope to accommodate thicker materials. There’s also a 25-sheet automatic document feeder (ADF) for the scanner. ![]() The main paper tray holds 125 sheets, and integrated into its top is a secondary photo tray that holds up to 20 sheets of photo paper (5-by-7-inch maximum). While the Photosmart 7520 is photo-centric, its paper-handling features extend well beyond that.

At this point in the story, players are still getting acclimated to a variety of game mechanics and systems, and Zhang Liang. By Momo Tabari published 22 March 2023 Zhang Liang might be scary, but you can beat him with some help (Image credit: Team Ninja) Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty immediately throws players into. By preparing accordingly before fighting, you can make this fight much less stressful. Either way, there's no point trying to get super aggressive with this phase and deal lots of damage conventionally-not when you can bait those critical strikes. The first boss in Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty offers a bit of a challenge. How to Defeat the First Boss in Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty. Zhang's red critical strikes seem pretty random to be honest one time he did the spike arm launch right at the very beginning, whereas another time I had to hit him a bit before he did it. This will finish the fight early and save you some trouble. Developer Team Ninja released more information about upcoming content to action RPG Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty. Once he's at half health your companion will tell you to "release the power of the jade" and you need to press Y+B on controller. ![]() He is surprisingly fast, and glues himself to you when dishing out combos. ![]() In particular you want to make sure you deflect the attack where he fires his spike arm at you, since this almost completely fills his Spirit Gauge, and he's usually stunned for long enough after that you can get a sneaky combo in to tip him over and perform a Fatal Strike. The boss at the end of the tutorial section is Zhang Liang, a brutish Yellow Turban bandit that wields a giant hammer. The good news is that you only need to get him to half health, and you can do this by baiting out his red critical strikes. Interestingly, though, TA player unlocks actually dip below the global Xbox level slightly in the mid-to-late-game, before evening out to the same 2% unlock rate as the wider Xbox pool on the last few achievements.Zhang Liang's second phase is a lot to deal with: he grows a big spiky arm that he tries to whip you with, and has a variety of annoying shockwave attacks, sending stones spiking towards you through the ground, or spiking the ground around him. As you might expect from a dedicated achievement-hunting community, tracked TrueAchievements players are off to a considerably better start, with roughly half of those with Wo Long on their tags now past the first hurdle. There then follows a pretty steep but steady drop-off in unlocks for the rest of the 17 story-based achievements, gradually falling to just 2% by the time we get to the final story pops - that lower tail end is to be expected when the game has barely been out a week and many will still be working their way through it. Compare the Xbox numbers to other platforms where the game isn't available as part of a subscription service and there's a huge disparity that backs up this notion - Journey's Beginning sits at a 33% unlock rate on Xbox, compared to a whopping 85% on both PlayStation and Steam, where players have had to buy the game and are therefore naturally more committed to getting through it. There's a good chance that many players will simply bounce off the game and never come back after being knocked around by the challenging first boss, and some may not even have made it that far before deciding the game wasn't for them and giving up. ![]() It's safe to say that a major factor here is Wo Long's availability in Xbox Game Pass, with any subscribers free to jump into Team Ninja's new adventure and try it out. ![]() During conversations with others, you may hear an auditory learner uses phrases like “tell me” or “explain to me”.They may be the chatterbox in your class, young auditory learners gather information through speaking with others and love communicating with fellow students.Auditory learners benefit from repetition, so you might notice them repeating new information out loud, this could be repeating instructions or reading aloud.Selene Watt’s ‘ Teaching Yourself To Teach ’ guide for teachers, identified some key indicators of auditory learners: In the classroom, this type of learner may display some of the following characteristics, but not necessarily all of them. Verbal instruction, audio revision and recorded lectures are all ideal ways to impart knowledge to an auditory learner. How can teachers recognise auditory learners?Īuditory learners are best able to retain and recall information that they hear. Speaking out loud – auditory learners like to speak or whisper aloud to learn which can pose difficulties in test environments.Audio distractions – loud background noises or silence can distract auditory learners as they are hyper-focused on sound.Written comprehension – auditory learners may struggle to comprehend written instructions.What are the disadvantages of auditory learning?Īuditory learning focuses largely on audio which means written comprehension may not be as strong: Conversationalists – audio learners love to learn new perspectives and have conversations with others.Memory – auditory learners retain the information they hear quickly and accurately.Great listeners – when someone learns through listening, they’re great at hearing what others have to say.Critical thinking skills – auditory learners have strong critical thinking skills as they’re able to talk through complex subjects with others and love communicating to learn.What are the benefits of auditory learning?Įvery learning style has its own set of benefits and auditory learners make great students. ![]() Can tackle complex topics by speaking aloud.What are the characteristics of auditory learners?Īuditory learners have many characteristics that make them great learners and students. If a student is an auditory learner, they may speak out loud to process information and respond well to verbal instructions rather than written ones. This means that an auditory learner would prefer to learn by listening to something rather than reading a textbook, for example. Reading/writing – learn best by reading and taking notesĪuditory learning is when someone learns best through listening.Auditory – learn through listening and speaking.Kinesthetic – learn through movement and tactility – read our post about Kinesthetic Learning here.Visual – learn best with imagery and visual aids – read our post about Visual Learning here.If you’re interested in finding out which type of learner you are, you can take an online learning style quiz. Research shows that Auditory Learners are the largest category, making up around 25% of the population. There are four main learning styles, most people will be a mix of all three with one that takes precedence. For example, if you know you have 5 pupils who fit the Auditory Learning style, they could be given a different part of a task to your Kinaesthetic Learners. If teachers are able to recognise and identify pupils with different learning styles in their classes, teaching can be tailored to be as impactful as possible. ![]() People don’t have a choice as to which type of learner they are – that’s dictated by the size and make-up of your brain tissue! Data from a 2020 study shows that students and children are more likely to have auditory learning style preferences. 9th September 2022 How To Teach Auditory LearnersĪn individual’s learning style is their naturally favoured way of taking on and retaining information. ![]() Lust for Life, a 1934 biographical novel about Vincent Van Gogh by Irving Stone Lust for Life, a. So strap on your horse tails and join me in celebrating Lust for Life. Lust for Life (Lana Del Rey album), 2017 'Lust for Life' (Lana Del Rey song), 2017 'Lust for Life' (Girls song), 2009 'Lust for Life', a 2009 song by Drake from So Far Gone 'Lust for Life', a 2004 song by Heavenly from Dust to Dust Other uses. Not only do I get to sing anthems like ‘Lust for Life’ and ‘The Passenger’ (as well as my personal fave from the album, ‘Success’), but I’m surrounded by some of Iggy, The Sex Pistols, Bowie and Blondie’s key players, including Glen Matlock, Clem Burke and Kevin Armstrong. I have worked with towering icons of music, but taking on the magnificent Iggy Pop’s vocal duties for this Lust for Life re-make/re-model is an electrifying opportunity like no other. Katie Puckrik adds: “I’m a show pony from way back: along with my broadcast career covering pop culture, I toured the world dancing with Pet Shop Boys, I performed at Sadler’s Wells with The Fall and Michael Clark Company, and I sang in Sparks’ opera The Seduction of Ingmar Bergman, both on the original cast recording and onstage. Three of the band members, Glen Matlock, Clem Burke and Kevin Armstrong have toured with Iggy Pop and each has made an album with him: Glen Matlock ( Soldier) in 1980, Clem Burke ( Zombie Birdhouse) in 1982 and Kevin Armstrong ( Blah Blah Blah) in 1986. It is the title track from Del Reys fifth studio album and fourth major-label studio album. Everyone in the group is looking forward to a great night of Rock ‘n’ Roll with a few extra surprises in store. 'Lust for Life' is a song by Lana Del Rey featuring The Weeknd. Clem Burke comments “Due to Tony’s unfortunate last minute unavailability we’ve decided to soldier on with my mate and current Blondie bass player Glen Matlock. The tour was originally due to head to Japan for a few dates, but they have now been cancelled. To be on stage with these fellow like-minded guys and gals and celebrate our collective musical ancestries should be a pleasure, so come on down and let’s all hit the roof together.” Glen Matlock says “It will be a bit of a challenge stepping into the top player and gentleman Tony Sales’ shoes at the last minute but challenges put hairs on your chest and are not to be shirked. Originally featuring Tony Fox Sales, Glen Matlock steps up at the last minute to replace Tony. During their their Jset, the band charged through a collection of their most popular songs the ebullient surf-pop anthem Lust for Life, the shape-shifting garage rock nugget. Iggy Pop’s classic album ‘Lust for Life’ is celebrating it’s 45th anniversary this year and special anniversary tour is happening next month. ![]() In several instances, songs were chosen to be performed by different artists or later re-recordings were obtained. However, he expressed there were sometimes difficulties obtaining the licensing for some of the songs, given the age of the recordings and their legal rights status. He then cites the unusually cheery nature of Patti Page's "Doggie in the Window" playing against "dark and violent sequence" as well as Tchaikovsky's "Waltz of the Flowers" playing against the crazed actions of Sander Cohen's Fort Frolic. For the songs that fit perfectly, he mentions Django Reinhardt's and Stéphane Grappelli's "La Mer". And sometimes playing against the scene can be a good thing." In an interview, Levine commented that "The question usually is: are you supporting the scene or are you playing against the scene. Levine was also inspired to include Django Reinhardt's recordings, in particular "La Mer", after hearing his music in the 1999 film Sweet and Lowdown and in the 2002 video game Mafia: The City of Lost Heaven. He emphasized that the music came from the pre-rock 'n roll era including the work of artists such as Johnnie Ray, Rosemary Clooney, Patti Page, and Billie Holiday. Other songs were chosen by creative director Ken Levine who researched music with the help of his dad and through iTunes. The licensed songs designed to be source music as if heard by the characters emanating from radios, phonographs, and jukeboxes rather than as incidental music heard from the game's score. In an interview, Ridgway explains "The songs themselves, there's a really interesting juxtaposition of.a happy quirky musical.razzle dazzle number and then.they'd be singing about.how the world is ending.It was supposed to mirror the optimism and the decay at the same time.those two things sort of coexisting with each other." ![]() Several of the songs were chosen from Emily Ridgway's personal record collection, which included the artists Django Reinhart, Bing Crosby, and Noël Coward. ![]() With the explosive growth of the internet, a huge platform was born for people to talk to others across the world and increase everyone's reach. The Seiko SKX is quite possibly the most iconic affordable watch of the past 20 years. However when it comes to Seiko I'm going a little more modern. The old Seiko Hi-beat models,(commonly known as early versions of the modern day Grand Seiko) can be picked up for anywhere around the £300-£400 mark, which over time does have the potential to increase in value. When it comes to watches for potential investments, there are many options from Seiko which fall under affordable. It's impossible to talk about popular modern day watches without ending up covering Seiko. ![]() By playing such an important role in the history of watchmaking, it's hard to believe that the value of Swatch watches would ever plummet to zero. For the sake of tens of pounds, I believe its worth snatching a few Swatches while you can. Swatch have also done many collaborations with brands, artists, creators over the years so its worth keeping an eye out for those in your search. Un-opened and un-used would be even better. Stick to the ones that still have the original box, ideally with the original strap is still intact. When it comes to purchasing a Swatch watch as an investment, keep your eyes open for a complete set. What started off as quick, easy, throwaway watches have now become a haven for watch enthusiasts (like yourselves) to jump on board and pick up a vital historical slice of horology. This initiative from Swatch arguable saved the Swiss market, which is why some Swatches can demand high prices on the second hand market. In 1983 up stepped Swatch with a simple message, to create affordable Swiss quartz models for the fashion conscious consumer. It was a worrying time for all Swiss companies, many had to quickly attempt to change their strategy to keep up with this new age of watchmaking. ![]() Two thirds of all watchmaking jobs ceast to exist and around 50% of Swiss watch companies had shut their factory doors. At this time, watchmaking was rather quickly looking like an extinct profession. With a well thought out plan devised, the Japanese dominated the watch market with more than 25 million watches being exported compared to the Swiss only managing 3 million. A new era of digital Japanese watches were born from the likes of Seiko and Citizen. Created by merging the terms 'second' and 'watch', Swatch was first developed in the early 1980s as Europe's reply to not only an influx of new age digital watches from the far East, but also as a way to try and save dying Swiss watchmaking. We can't discuss affordable watches that hold their value without talking about Swatch. Invest in some of the models mentioned below, play around with some vintage watches around £20-£50 and learn from the ground up. My advice is if you were looking to pick up a few watches, I would start with small, manageable purchases. Now, I'm no expert in buying and selling watches but I do spend all my days and evenings surrounded by watches and I believe I've got a good idea on what's hot at the moment. It's a risky game unless you know your stuff. Doing it this way should hopefully ensure there should be something here for everyone, no matter how deep your pockets are.Ī word of warning, when it comes to investing a lot of money in watches. I'm going to start from the ground up, stopping around a few thousands of pounds. One mans affordable is another mans expensive. ![]() Now I use the term 'affordable' carefully. Look at this article as a friendly chat going over a few suggestions, from one collector to another. It can be extremely daunting exploring this side of horology, that's why I've got together a selection of watches I believe would be worth investing some money into now. Now, don't take this as me complaining about these watch fans, these are some of the people that keep the watch industry popular and consistently moving forward ( look no further than Paul Newman's Paul Newman for example). just exciting.Īs with anything however, there will be people who look at watches just for the potential financial gain that can be made on purchasing rare, desirable watches. The idea of a combination of many different parts all working away in a confide area to accurately portray time all while being attached to your wrist is for some reason. Many of the watch fan base is here because we love watches. There is quite simply more people out there after many types of watches, from a £200 Seiko to a £80,000 Patek. Plus, it comes with multiple user licenses to protect more than one device, including cell phones and tablets. You can encrypt important files so they're more difficult for ransomware to hold hostage. You also get a personal firewall, a tool we feel is important to have beyond malware blocking, webcam monitoring, safe banking tools and parental controls. ![]() ![]() Total Security includes features such as firewall, parental controls. It stops malware files before they start downloading and mark links and search results as safe or dangerous, including those shared on social media. Features: Bitdefender Total Security offers more features than Bitdefender Antivirus Plus. If you need a basic antivirus program, you can't do much better than Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, but we recommend Bitdefender Internet Security because of the extra features that we feel are important to really secure your computer from multiple types of threats including phishing schemes, ransomware, internet trackers, hackers and spam messages.īitdefender Internet Security comes with a vulnerability scanner, safe banking tools and a VPN in addition to malware blocking. Why Bitdefender Internet Security is our pick Internet Security also has anti-spam that monitors incoming email messages, including attachments, for phishing schemes, malicious downloads and links to dangerous websites. When we tested this feature, we tried to visit pages designed to look like Facebook and PayPal login pages but were stopped by Bitdefender. However, these tools are accessed from your online portal and not the desktop dashboard, which isn't the most convenient way to set up this feature.īitdefender Internet Security has phishing filters that stop you from accidentally accessing schemes designed to gather personal information and stealing your identity. These let you set time limits and block inappropriate content from your children. With Internet Security, Bitdefender gives you access to its parental controls. Internet Security encrypts sensitive files so they can't be attacked by ransomware. It also monitors your webcam to ensure programs can't access it without your permission. This higher-tiered program has a personal firewall that watches your internet connection to make sure nothing dangerous is sneaking in or sensitive data is being sent out and will boot off anyone trying to piggyback or steal your internet. The biggest difference between the two programs are a few extra protections included with Bitdefender Internet Security. This is mainly a flaw with Edge not allowing third-party browser extensions than with Bitdefender. The downfalls of both programs are also similar, with Bitdefender Internet Security taking a while to finish scans and not working as well to stop threats coming in through Microsoft Edge. We recommend Bitdefender Internet Security because of the extra features. Both also stop internet trackers from keeping tabs on your online movements. It, too, scored high on our in-house malware protection tests - stopping 99% of threats - and includes the same great list of security tools, like a VPN, safe banking, and vulnerability scanner. Bitdefender's Internet Security is just as good as its Antivirus Plus solution.

" I didn't know that he (Moody) wasn't with Evanescence anymore. In February of 2004, Kelly met with musicians Ben Moody and David Hodges, who had just departed from their band Evanescence in late 2003. " I just think it's funny that all these middle-age guys told me, 'You don't know how a pop song needs to sound.' I'm a 23-year-old girl! But I was fighting those battles alone." Kelly reiterates that she's been writing songs since her teenage years, but rather than argue over labels or abilities, the two reached a détente: she would co-write half the album with the other half being penned by other songwriters and producers. ![]() Artists with great voices like Melissa Manchester and Taylor Dayne could have had much longer careers if they didn't insist on writing their own material." " I always encourage people to write their own songs, but in the pop arena, where the career is totally dependent on hits, you get skeptical. (I'll sing it) as long as I can relate to it."ĭuring the album's development, Davis revealed that he was reluctant to let Kelly write material for the album. I'm not one of those people who thinks you have to write everything. " I've written most of (the songs) so far, but there's some people who have some stuff for me. In April of 2004, Kelly entered the studio immediately after the Independent Tour She said in an interview: Initially reluctant, Kelly agreed to record the song "Breakaway" was first released on April of 2004 by Walt Disney Records as a single from the soundtrack, acting as an interim record until her second album's lead single was released.Īfter debuting on the Billboard Hot 100 chart at number 60, it peaked at number six, a week before the album's release. ![]() The song (written by Avril Lavigne, Matthew Gerrard and Bridget Benenate) was initially written for Avril's 2002 debut album "Let Go," but it was deemed unsuitable for the album's themes at the time.
