Banksia marginata

Banksia marginata.
Banksia marginata, the silver banksia, is a species of tree or woody shrub found throughout much of southeastern Australia. It ranges from the Eyre Peninsula in South Australia to north of Armidale, New South Wales, and across Tasmania and the islands of Bass Strait. It grows in various habitats, including Eucalyptus forest, scrub, heathland and moorland. B. marginata varies widely in habit, ranging from a small shrub, 20 cm (7.9 in) high, to a large tree, 12 m (40 ft) tall. Its narrow leaves are linear. Its yellow flower spikes appear in late summer, eventually fading to brown and then grey and developing woody follicles bearing the winged seeds. Many species of bird, in particular honeyeaters, forage at the flower spikes, as do native and European honeybees. Although the silver banksia has been used for timber, it is most commonly seen as a garden plant, with dwarf forms being commercially propagated and sold.

Jean-François-Marie de Surville

Jean-François-Marie de Surville.
Jean-François-Marie de Surville (1717–1770) was a merchant captain with the French East India Company who commanded a voyage of exploration to the Pacific in 1769 and 1770. Born in Brittany, France, Surville joined the company when he was 10 years old. For the next several years, he sailed on voyages in Indian and Chinese waters. In 1740, he joined the French Navy. He fought in the War of the Austrian Succession and the Seven Years' War, twice becoming a prisoner of war. In 1769, in command of Saint Jean-Baptiste, he sailed from India on an expedition to the Pacific looking for trading opportunities. He explored the seas around the Solomon Islands and anchored in December at Doubtless Bay, New Zealand (commemorative plaque pictured). Part of his route around New Zealand overlapped that of James Cook in Endeavour, who had preceded him by only a few days. Three months later, Surville drowned off the coast of Peru while seeking help for his scurvy-afflicted crew.

If you've been holding off on a new pair of Apple AirPods in hopes the Walmart-advertised Black Friday price would come back into stock, you're in luck, because it did.

Venom #20 Review: An Essential Absolute Carnage Epilogue

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

It's a bit of a relief to be on the other side of the Absolute Carnage tunnel. While that storyline ranks among Marvel's better crossover events in recent years, it still suffers from that all too familiar flaw where the core miniseries tells a very straightforward, action-oriented tale. In this case, most of the deeper character work is reserved for tie-in books like Venom and The Amazing Spider-Man. Now that Venom is on its own again, it's free to tell a fuller and more cohesive story. And if there's any takeaway from issue #20, it's that Eddie Brock faces a very exciting and unpredictable future.

Even if you don't follow this series month-to-month, it's worth reading Venom #20 as an epilogue to to Absolute Carnage. This issue examines the aftermath of the crossover and how it affects Eddie, his son Dylan and even The Maker for good measure. Writer Donny Cates makes it abundantly clear that Knull's reawakening is only one of the major developments coming out of the crossover. This issue introduces significant new wrinkles to the mythology of the symbiotes and works to forge deeper connections between Eddie and The Maker. As fascinating a villain as this interdimensional Reed Richards is, his presence in the series has always felt a bit arbitrary. That changes in a big way now.

Pilgrim Tercentenary half dollar

Pilgrim Tercentenary half dollar.
The Pilgrim Tercentenary half dollar was a commemorative fifty-cent coin struck by the United States Bureau of the Mint in 1920 and 1921 to mark the 300th anniversary of the arrival of the Pilgrims in North America. It was designed by Cyrus E. Dallin. Massachusetts congressman Joseph Walsh was involved in joint federal and state efforts to mark the anniversary. He saw a reference to a proposed Maine Centennial half dollar and realized that a coin could be issued for the Pilgrim anniversary in support of the observances at Plymouth, Massachusetts. The bill moved quickly through the legislative process and became the Act of May 12, 1920, with the signature of President Woodrow Wilson. Sculptor James Earle Fraser criticized some aspects of the design, but the Treasury approved it. After a promising start, sales tailed off, and tens of thousands of coins from each year were returned to the Philadelphia Mint for melting.

Hearthstone Card Reveal – IGN’s Descent of Dragons Exclusive

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

Hearthstone’s next expansion – Descent of Dragons – will be swooping down upon us on December 10 (December 11 here in Australia), bringing with it 140 new cards and a dragon-filled finale for the year-long clash between the League of E.V.I.L. and the League of Explorers.

The five “evil” classes (Priest, Rogue, Shaman, Warlock and Warrior), for instance, will each be using the new Invoke keyword to power up and then transform into their own version of Galakrond – the father of all dragonkind. The four “good” classes (Druid, Hunter, Mage and Paladin), meanwhile, will be utilising another new inclusion - sidequests. These don’t start in your hand, but are designed to be completed quickly. Plus, they can be active alongside legendary quests. For more on the new mechanics, check out the video below.

Caroline Brady (philologist)

Caroline Brady (philologist).
Caroline Brady (1905–1980) was an American philologist whose scholarship focused on Old English and Old Norse. Her works included the 1943 book The Legends of Ermanaric, based on her doctoral dissertation, and three influential papers on the Anglo-Saxon poem Beowulf. She was born an American citizen in Tientsin, China, and studied in the University of California system, receiving her Doctor of Philosophy degree in 1935. The Legends of Ermanaric discussed two competing traditions about the Gothic king Ermanaric, who ruled in the fourth century AD. Ostrogothic lore viewed him as a good king, whereas a second tradition, promulgated by those subjugated by him, saw him as evil. Brady was known as an investigator of the intractable problems of Germanic myth, and the convoluted nature of the related scholarship. In 1952–53 she was the Marion Talbot Fellow of the American Association of University Women.

That’s no mark against Stranger Things, which debuted its third season all the way back on the 4th of July earlier this year. That the Mandalorian, which only just released its third episode in its second week of being available, just now overtook Stranger Things means that the series managed to hold the top spot (or close to it) for 21 weeks after season three dropped.

This year, Amazon is released several of their Apple Black Friday deals early. These include discounts on the 2019 iPad, the 2019 Apple Watch Series 5, the 2019 MacBook Air and MacBook Pro, and the 2nd generation AirPods.

Littlemore Priory scandals

Littlemore Priory scandals.
The Littlemore Priory scandals of 1517 and 1518 involved accusations of sexual immorality and brutal violence. The Benedictine priory in Oxfordshire, England, was very small and poor and had a history of troubled relations with its bishop. Katherine Wells, the prioress of Littlemore, was accused of putting nuns in the stocks for extended periods and physically assaulting them. She entertained men in her parlour, had a baby by the priory's chaplain and pawned the priory's jewels to pay for the child's upbringing; at least one other nun also had a child. On one occasion several nuns broke out of the priory through a window and escaped into the surrounding villages. The bishop launched an investigation, and in 1525 the priory was closed. It was one of the priories that Cardinal Wolsey suppressed during the 1520s. The house became a farmstead and was gradually pulled down; only one original building survived into the 21st century.

Walking Dead's Midseason Finale Poorly Prepped Michonne's Exit

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

Warning: Full spoilers for The Walking Dead's Season 10 midseason finale follow...

With last week's episode, "Open Your Eyes," showcasing Season 10's best efforts to date, it was unlikely the midseason finale was going to top it. And it didn't. But it sure seemed like it was trying during the first 20 minutes or so, when we got all our questions about Dante answered, Rosita took him down (and saved Coco from a zombified Siddiq), and Gabriel went nuts and murdered Dante in his cell.

Those were all very interesting and intense moments. And I mentioned last week how I hoped Rosita would get to be the one to take that Dante out. I was just afraid things wouldn't come to a head as quickly as they did. Like, that the episode would take its sweet-ass time with the full reveal of Dante's betrayal. But we got it right out of the gate, so "The World Before" gets some solid points for digging into it right quick.

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

This review contains spoilers for Watchmen episode 6, "This Extraordinary Being." To refresh your memory of where we left off, check out our recap of Watchmen episode 5.

The other shoe drops (and how!) with the sixth episode of HBO’s Watchmen. When Angela Abar (Regina King) was arrested in episode 5, for covering up her grandfather’s part in a murder, she swallowed his memories in pill form. This week, “This Extraordinary Being” takes us through Abar’s mind as she re-lives the past from Will’s perspective. It’s a uniquely conceived hour of television that digs deep into Watchmen history, not only by pointing a camera at the comic’s unexplored corners, but by staying in conversation with Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons’ original text. In doing so, the show creates a continuum between page and screen — between past and present — by presenting a walkthrough of Will’s life in long, seemingly unbroken takes. A visual continuum, rewriting history from a specific point of view by revealing truths about white America through one of its historically whitest fictional institutions: the comic book superhero.

John II of France

John II of France.
The Black Prince's chevauchée was a large-scale mounted raid carried out by an Anglo-Gascon force under the command of Edward, the Black Prince (depiction shown), between 5 October and 2 December 1355 during the Hundred Years' War. John, Count of Armagnac, who commanded the local French forces, avoided battle, and there was little fighting during the campaign. The Anglo-Gascon force of 4,000–6,000 men marched from Bordeaux in English-held Gascony 300 miles (480 km) to Narbonne and back to Gascony, devastating a wide swathe of French territory and sacking many French towns on the way. During the four months following Christmas, more than 50 French-held towns or fortifications were captured. In August 1356 the Black Prince headed north on another chevauchée with 6,000 men; he was intercepted by the main French army, 11,000 strong, at Poitiers, where he decisively defeated them and captured King John II.

My Hero Academia: Season 4, Episode 6 Review

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

Episode 69, "An Unpleasant Talk," begins in a curious fashion, with Deku, Red Riot, Uravity, and Froppy called to a mysterious gathering with no idea what to expect. In addition to finding a slew of pro heroes assembled at Sir Nighteye's office, they also encounter the Big Three, Gran Torino, and even their teacher Eraser Head. Will this lead to an action-packed episode, a funny escapade, or a dramatic raising of the stakes?

It turns out to be mostly the third option, but with a caveat: in the episode’s first half, the stakes are raised, but in a very uneventful and clunky way. After our four members of Class 1-A arrive at this heroic meeting, a discussion surrounding the new villains of the season gets underway, with Sir Nighteye explaining what we know so far about Shie Hassaikai, their leader Chisaki (Overhaul), and their plans involving a quirk-stopping drug and how it is procured.

Spinophorosaurus

Spinophorosaurus.
Spinophorosaurus was a sauropod dinosaur that lived around 167 million years ago, during the Middle Jurassic. The first two specimens of the genus were excavated from the Irhazer Shale formation in Niger in the 2000s by German and Spanish teams. Spinophorosaurus ("spine-bearing lizard") was the first sauropod to have its skeleton 3D-printed (reconstruction pictured), when the fossils were brought to Europe and digitally replicated. The shoulder height was an estimated 4 m (13 ft), and its weight was about 7 metric tons (7.7 short tons). The braincase was short, deep, and broad, and the teeth were spoon-shaped. The neck contained 13 vertebrae. The tail was powered by strong musculature and had a rear section that was rather rigid due to long and overlapping chevron bones. Features of the vestibular apparatus suggest that vision and coordinated eye, head, and neck movements were important in Spinophorosaurus. Paired spikes on the tail may have been used for defence.

Yugoslav torpedo boat T7

Yugoslav torpedo boat T7.
T7 was a sea-going torpedo boat operated by the Royal Yugoslav Navy between 1921 and 1941. Originally 96 F, a 250t-class torpedo boat commissioned on 23 November 1916 by the Austro-Hungarian Navy, she performed escort, minesweeping, anti-submarine and shore bombardment operations during World War I. Following Austria-Hungary's defeat in 1918, she was allocated to Yugoslavia and renamed T7. She was captured by the Italians during the Axis invasion of Yugoslavia in April 1941 and used for coastal and second-line tasks, after her main armament was modernised. Following the Italian capitulation in September 1943, she was captured by Germany and handed over to the Navy of the Independent State of Croatia, continuing to serve as T7. Her crew came under the influence of the Yugoslav Partisans, and were preparing to mutiny when the Germans intervened. She ran aground during a battle with British motor torpedo boats in June 1944 and was then destroyed.

Shenmue 3 Review

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

The story of Shenmue began 20 years ago, and for its time the original game was an undeniable marvel in video game storytelling and world-building. You lived Ryo Hazuki’s life, developing relationships and maintaining a day job in your Japanese hometown, all while trying to track down your father’s murderer so you could extract vengeance. Time has not been kind to that original game, nor its 2001 sequel, as video game stories and performance capture tech have improved drastically. In many ways, Shenmue 3 is a stark reminder of the leaps and bounds developers have made in the last 20 years. That’s not to say there isn’t a compelling experience here – it just feels out of time and doesn’t reward the Shenmue faithful with meaningful revelations in the story.

"Without giving too much away, it’s not in the plans right now, Johnson said. "I think the approach that we’re talking I feel really good about, and all of the filmmakers do too as well. It’s an origin story and that’s where we start it and we root it, and then we build out from there. Now, not to say Shazam isn’t on my radar. Of course Shazam is, but so is all of DC."

Why It's OK to Call The Mandalorian's Breakout Star 'Baby Yoda'

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

Now that true plot of Disney Plus’ The Mandalorian is out in the wild, fans have become enamored with Baby Yoda. Yet that nickname has irked some fans because The Child is technically not a baby version of Yoda given that the Jedi Master passed away and became one with the Force five years before the events of The Mandalorian. Rather, the creature in question is simply a baby of the same species as Yoda.

Nitpicky? Sure. But it does raise the question of what we should be calling this little bundle of green joy. George Lucas has long kept Yoda’s species a mystery and has never even given it a name, so what are we to do?
