![]() ![]() Yes, she wanted to die at the end of the last season, but this just seems tired. JF: The drama with Andrea (Laurie Holden) and her gun felt so petty. Even with that, I suspect if the team behind The Walking Dead continues to put them in the foreground, that will change. She, like her mother, are barely more than random victims. If they never find her, it doesn’t really matter. Even then, though, it was more of a “huh, I hope they find her” then a “holy hell, find her!” That’s obviously because she (Sophia) was such a non-entity in season one that I have zero feelings for her. However, I did care somewhat about Sophia’s situation, but that’s only because she’s a kid. I predict she gets offed at some point for some drama and maybe by then I might care, but as it stands now, I really can’t be bothered. ![]() As it stands now, even after this episode, I consider her cannon fodder. SP: You know, I just don’t care about Carol’s character, so devoting some more time developing it might be a good thing. Carol (Melissa McBride) was given a lot of screentime, but most of it was spent in hysterics over the fact that her daughter Sophia (Madison Lintz) is missing after the highway scene. ![]() Although AMC was replaying the previous episodes, it was nice to jump right in to this episode that spent enough time on every character. JF: I’m glad this episode was extended because it’s been almost a year since the first season ended. The scene in which Andrea dispatches the zombie with a screwdriver is cringe worthy and hopefully a further sign of things to come. In addition, What Lies Ahead wastes absolutely no time getting to the grue. And I’m not-so-patiently waiting for that showdown, as Daryl will no doubt have to choose a side. #The walking dead season two episode 1 serialThis brings up an interesting conundrum once his brother, Merle (Michael Rooker, Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer), shows back up (really, he just has to). Here you have a guy who is the epitome of a racist hillbilly redneck and he risks his own hide to make sure T-Dog gets to safety. Steve Pattee: The first part of the show, the scene in which you are talking about, was easily my favorite scene in the episode and not just for the reasons you mentioned, but also the further character development of Daryl. They were surrounded at one point and their position was a weak one. If any of them made a single sound, they would all be dead. I’ve seen movies where people run from zombies but I’ve rarely seen them hide in plain sight like that. This episode started out with an incredibly tense scene with the group hiding under cars on a crowded highway while a herd of zombies shuffle past them. There was certainly a lot to live up to as the first season set the bar incredibly high. After meeting a scientist at the CDC, the survivors didn’t have much hope as to their future but they’ve set out for a nearby army base. Over 7 million people tuned in to the over-sized premiere episode to see where Rick, Lori, Shane and the rest of the gang would go next.

![]() ![]() The medieval Danish account of Balder by the historian Saxo Grammaticus suggests that he was always up for a fight. However, this objection probably gives undue weight to a single account. These speculations have been postulated mostly because the Old Norse term baldr would imply that he had warlike traits, when in the main account of Balder from Norse mythology he is portrayed as peaceful and even innocent. It may also have been linked with baldur, which means lord and was often used in honorifics, such as baldur I brynju, meaning lord of men. His name may also derive from the Proto-Indo-European word bhel, which means white, or the Old Norse bál, which means fire. His name, Baldr in Old Norse, probably comes from the Old Norse term baldr, which means bold. He was described in Norse mythology as the height of perfection, being both the fairest and wisest among the gods of Asgard. He was said to be so handsome and so noble that light emanated from his body, and even the most beautiful flowers bowed before him as he passed. Who is Balder?īalder (also known as Baldr or Baldur) was the Viking god of light, joy, purity and summer, and the most beloved creature in Norse mythology. Of all the Viking gods recorded in Norse mythology, none is described as more beloved by both the gods and men as Balder.īut who was, Balder, this most blessed among all the gods? And why is this celebrated Viking god most famous for his death?įind out more about the various stories from Norse mythology that surround Balder’s death with this video from the University of Colorado. God of war baldur full#This was the prophecy that the Giants foretold, of the twilight of the gods - the prophecy that Odin so desperately wanted to prevent.Norse mythology is full of gods and goddesses with mysterious powers and fantastic tales. There will be countless natural disasters, and the world will become submerged in water. Ragnarök will include a great battle that will lead to the deaths of all the Gods, including Odin, Thor, and Loki. After the great winter, it is said that there will be innumerable wars, and the end of the world that will put an end to all life on earth, Ragnarök, will commence. It is the harsh winter that will see snow falling in all directions, without any summer in between, for three successive years. Mimir, claiming to be the smartest man alive, warns Kratos that the three-year-long winter has started, meaning Ragnarök will follow, a whole hundred years early.įimbulvetr comes from Old Norse, and means "Awful, great winter". Baldur’s mother, Freya, fell out of love with Odin and was banished to the mortal realm, where she assists Kratos up until her son’s death at his hands, only to swear vengeance against him. God of War's Baldur was sent to find the last giant, Faye, by his Godly father, Odin, in order to prevent Ragnarök, not knowing that she was already ashes by his arrival. The stories tell that Loki certainly gets around, fathering many children including Hel of the dead, Fenrir the wolf and Jörmungandr, the world serpent, the last of which we meet in God of War 4. That fire was Loki, a Norse god who is a shapeshifter and often known as a trickster. Little is known about her aside from mothering her more widely-known son, but her names and the interpretations of them describe her as being ‘full of leaves’, and combined with her husband, the two of them symbolically embody lightning, striking the leaves of a tree to give rise to fire. Laufey is a figure from Norse mythology, mother of Loki and consort of Fárbauti, her Jötunn husband whose name means 'cruel striker' or ‘dangerous hitter’. ![]() ![]() I’ll leave that part for now, because there’s a lot of lovely big norse words here, so let’s break them down. ![]() ![]() Well, many of us decided that Karen, or, say, Becky, works for us. ![]() There isn’t a specific name that is used for problematic young white male behavior the dismissive “OK, bro” is what we’ve got for now.įreeman largely ignores race in her piece, save for one throwaway line: “People of color should describe their experiences of racism in whatever language works for them.” But the origins come from Eminem’s song “Stan,” in which a male fan named Stan is so utterly obsessed with Eminem that he kills himself and his pregnant girlfriend. A more recent example is “Stan,” which in recent years has come to mean a person who is an admirer of a public figure. There’s “Uncle Tom,” used to describe a black man who is seen to be excessively subservient to white people. It’s not as though men’s names haven’t been used to depict problematic behavior. Being a Karen has probably given me some advantages.įreeman goes on to lament that there are “memes about Chad and Zach,” but those “have never had the popularity of ones about Becky, Susan or Tammy, let alone Karen.” My mother, who grew up in Nigeria, named me Karen precisely because she wanted me to blend into white American society and face fewer problems in life than I would have with a foreign or a “black-sounding” name. Thus, many Karens are, in fact, of the boomer generation. “That’s a white lady’s name.” Karen was a popular name for baby girls in the 1950s and 1960s. ![]() One of them raised an eyebrow and looked puzzled when I told him my name. But Freeman seems to believe "Karen” originated with white men, when these notions about the name and white privilege have been circulating in the black community for a long time.Īs a kid in South Dallas in the ’90s, I remember one time when I introduced myself to other black kids at the mall. In her piece for the Guardian, Freeman’s basis for labeling the Karen meme sexist was that white men are using the word to make fun of white women. Anyone who disagrees can take it up with my manag … - I mean, with history. “Karen” is not and will never be an oppressive slur. Another viral tweet went so far as to call “Karen” the equivalent of the n-word.Īs a millennial black Karen, and a child of immigrants, I find the brouhaha hilarious and twisted. Hadley Freeman wrote in the Guardian that the Karen memes were sexist. Nonetheless, the conversation around Bindel’s tweet included white women who did feel Karen memes were offensive. “Does anyone else think the ‘Karen’ slur is woman-hating and based on class prejudice?” tweeted Julie Bindel, a British feminist writer, whose credentials in oppression include being known for espousing anti-trans rhetoric. The most recent Karen fires came from across the Atlantic, fanned by white British women claiming that “Karen” is - wait for it - an oppressive slur. ![]() And a Karen at the peak of her powers will call the police on someone for a mild inconvenience. Middle-aged Karen is the one asking to see your manager. A young Karen likely would have been the class snitch, tattling on her classmates to the teacher to get them in trouble. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Good, positive, happy, joyous experiences – and painful, confusing, hurtful, frustrating experiences. And if this is so, why do you brag as if you got these things by your own power?” (ICB).Įverything we see, have and experience comes through the Father’s hands – all of it. Or the words of John the Baptist in John 3:27, “A person cannot receive even one thing unless it is given him from heaven.” Or 1 Corinthians 4:7, “Everything you have was given to you. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.” They are deceived. That’s the secular world that doesn’t understand James 1:16-17 that says, “Do not be deceived, my beloved brothers. That’s a world without thanksgiving – without gratitude – without the understanding of grace and mercy. “Meaningless, meaningless… Utterly meaningless! Everything is meaningless” - or so goes the opening lines of Ecclesiastes, setting the theme of the entire book – that nothing matters and no matter what we do, we all die anyway. Sadly, none of it matters though, because all you have – your home, money, and relationship – are merely forms of reorganized dirt that will be long forgotten within a few generations anyway. If you are not successful, then you need to try harder and fight more to get what you deserve in this world. If you are successful, then it is because you either lucked out in the genetic or economic lottery. We are all merely highly evolved animals – of no more value than a virus or a pinecone. Everything we see – for good or ill – we have achieved on our own and there is no guiding hand or purpose to anything in life. ![]() The world came into being by chance, everything is a collection of random atomic accidents, and we are only here by coincidence. We live in a darkened world that refuses to thank God for His provision and will not acknowledge His grace. We live in an age of expectancy, selfishness and pride.

Looking to distance themselves from their like-charged neighbors, the strands of hair begin to rise upward and outward - a truly hair-raising experience. As the individual strands of hair become charged, they begin to repel each other. ![]() Being a conductor, the excess charge could flow to the human body and spread throughout the surface of the body, even onto strands of hair. When a student places their hand upon the static ball, excess charge from the ball is shared with the human body. The effects of excess charge on the body are often demonstrated using a Van de Graaff generator. Given the size of the human body, relative to the size of typical objects used in electrostatic experiments, it would require an abnormally large quantity of excess charge before its effect is noticeable. When the body acquires a static charge it has a tendency to distribute that charge throughout the surface of the body. The conductivity of a metal might be as much as a million trillion times greater than that of glass.Īlong the continuum of conductors and insulators, one might find the human body somewhere towards the conducting side of the middle. Metals would be placed near the most conductive end and glass would be placed on the opposite end of the continuum. Those materials that are super conductive (known as superconductors) would be placed at on end and the least conductive materials (best insulators) would be placed at the other end. It is more appropriate to think of materials as being placed somewhere along a continuum. The division of materials into the categories of conductors and insulators is a somewhat artificial division. Examples of insulators include plastics, Styrofoam, paper, rubber, glass and dry air. The cups also serve as handles when it becomes necessary to move the cans around on the table.Įxamples of conductors include metals, aqueous solutions of salts (i.e., ionic compounds dissolved in water), graphite, and the human body. The cups serve as insulators, preventing the pop cans from discharging their charge. If charging experiments are performed with aluminum pop cans, then the cans should be mounted on top of Styrofoam cups. The insulator serves as a handle for moving the conductor around on top of a lab table. This arrangement also allows for a student (or teacher) to manipulate a conducting object without touching it. This arrangement of a conductor on top of an insulator prevents charge from being transferred from the conductive object to its surroundings. Conductive objects are often mounted upon insulating objects. While insulators are not useful for transferring charge, they do serve a critical role in electrostatic experiments and demonstrations. #Torque diagrams free#The particles of the insulator do not permit the free flow of electrons subsequently charge is seldom distributed evenly across the surface of an insulator. If charge is transferred to an insulator at a given location, the excess charge will remain at the initial location of charging. In contrast to conductors, insulators are materials that impede the free flow of electrons from atom to atom and molecule to molecule. Conductors allow for charge transfer through the free movement of electrons. The transfer of charge between objects occurs more readily if the second object is made of a conducting material. ![]() If a charged conductor is touched to another object, the conductor can even transfer its charge to that object. Since conductors allow for electrons to be transported from particle to particle, a charged object will always distribute its charge until the overall repulsive forces between excess electrons is minimized. ![]() The distribution of charge is the result of electron movement. ![]() If charge is transferred to the object at a given location, that charge is quickly distributed across the entire surface of the object. An object made of a conducting material will permit charge to be transferred across the entire surface of the object. Conductors are materials that permit electrons to flow freely from particle to particle. The behavior of an object that has been charged is dependent upon whether the object is made of a conductive or a nonconductive material. ![]() ![]() #Gamma control mohaa Pc#One of the best RPGs of 2002 PC PP 71 REVIEW Medal Of Honor: Spearhead. #Gamma control mohaa manual#You can thus tweak the colors to match the lighting and dim screens in a way that avoids.
