One parent shared his experience with Marc, a Mathnasium instructor: Each of our Mathnasium instructors must pass a rigorous exam that proves they don't just understand complex math, but that they can teach it as well. We wouldn't ask a math tutor to help your student write a persuasive essay. Unlike many of our competitors, Mathnasium exclusively teaches math. At Mathnasium, we pride ourselves on teaching for meaningful learning in doing so, we offer your child a much better educational experience.Ģ. Meaningful learning is defined as, "feel(ing) that all the pieces of a concept, idea, theory, formula, or argument fit together." You can read more about meaningful learning here. While having some basic math memorized can be beneficial, meaningful learning trumps rote memorization every time. (Think of learning the alphabet, or even multiplication facts with flashcards). Rote memorization is when facts and information are learned by repetition. At Mathnasium of South Surrey, we don't use rote memorization. To help you find the best fit for your child, Mathnasium of South Surrey compiled a list of things that sets us apart from other tutoring centres.ġ.

![]() These chemical compounds are secreted by cannabis plants and interact with receptors in the brain to relieve pain while causing a sense of euphoria and relaxation. To create Shatter, butane is used to extract cannabinoids and terpenes from cannabis plant matter yielding an extremely potent type of cannabis concentrate, known as Butane Hash Oil (hence the nickname BHO). It can easily break or shatter (hence its name) if dropped on a hard surface. Upon closer inspection, however, one will notice that shatter is very brittle and fragile. To the untrained eye, Shatter may look like golden honey with a glass-like sheen to it. Men and women who use Shatter get higher faster, but the effects – which range from intoxicating to intense – often include bouts of overwhelming paranoia, anxiety, and even psychosis. Shatter contains the same psychoactive properties as marijuana in the form of THC, but is much more potent than marijuana in its traditional form, containing upwards of 60-80% THC (held up against the usual 20% found in everyday marijuana). At its base level, Shatter is concentrated marijuana that is extracted through an extremely volatile chemical process. Although some call it Dabs because the drug is used by taking a small amount of the extract and “dabbing” it onto a heated surface and then inhaling the smoke.Įven more alarming than Shatter’s highly addictive properties, however, is the manufacturing process, in which a natural plant is mixed with a chemical which, in turn, can often yield explosive results. ![]() Shatter is still a relatively new marijuana concentrate that garnered its nicknames due to its brittle texture and color. The latest addition to this race is the marijuana derivative called shatter.Īlso called Butane Hash Oil (BHO), Shatter has several street names, including Honey Oil, Wax, Sap, and Budder. This has not been the case with recreational drugs with these, there has been a “fast track” to find new ways to create, distill and distribute highly addictive drugs for profit and gain. ![]() They were then able to use the substances that had beneficial effects to achieve desired results, and they passed their knowledge of these drugs from generation to generation. As early humans tried different plant, animal, and mineral substances, they realized that some substances produced special medicinal effects. The first drugs were likely discovered through accident and observation. Whatever you do, make sure to savor your success. Reward yourself:Īfter you accomplish your goal, take a moment to celebrate! Pat yourself on the back, buy yourself a post-climb treat, or treat yourself to a new piece of climbing gear. Choose someone supportive and encouraging, and who will help you stay calm in difficult situations. Find a partner:Ĭlimbing with a partner can help you feel more secure and confident. Work your way up to harder routes as your confidence increases. Or if you are afraid of falling, start by practicing on a low-level route. Once you feel comfortable with that, you can move on to a taller cliff. For instance, if you are afraid of heights, start by climbing a small boulder. If you are feeling really scared, it may help to start with a smaller goal. You can even close your eyes and imagine yourself going through the motions of completing the climb. See yourself crossing the finish line, giving a high-five to your climbing partner, or reaching the summit. To help boost your confidence, take a few minutes to visualize yourself completing the climb. Repeat this until you feel your body begin to relax. Inhale for four counts and exhale for eight counts. To help calm your body, focus on taking slow, deep breaths. When you are feeling scared, your body goes into fight-or-flight mode, and your heart rate and breathing increase. Once you understand your fear, you can begin to take steps to overcome it. This can be done by talking to experienced climbers, reading books and articles, or watching videos. The first step is to face your fear and understand why you are afraid. How can you overcome the fear and climb safely? Face your fear: Before you know it, you’ll be able to tackle even the tallest ladder with ease! With each successful climb, you’ll likely start to feel more confident and comfortable.
![]() No sleeping in a jumperĮven though jumpers aren’t usually ideal for sleeping, many parents fall back on jumpers, bouncers, swings, and rockers as a napping space. There are some important safety precautions you should keep in mind if you’re thinking about adding a jumper, bouncer, swing, or rocker to your collection of baby gear. Jumpers are great, but they’re not entirely without risks. Let’s jump (pun intended) through the various types of baby jumpers, as well as best safety practices, and highlight some of our parent-recommended picks.

The project is being developed in the Unity Engine, in a custom framework built in C#, and features its own custom development tools and level editors which allow us to manage environmental art and level design scripting in one package. History Hazelnut Bastille started as a prototyping project in April of 2016, and has been in full time development ever since. On the way, her story becomes irrevocably intertwined with the lives of those living in this far off land. Hazelnut Bastille tells the story of a young woman who travels to a foreign shore on the outskirts of her world, in order to seek out the promised gifts of mythological ancients, in hopes of retrieving something which was lost to her. We seek to emulate this period in most ways, from graphic presentation, to audio production, to general level design philosophy. You can keep up with Aloft’s progress online until then.Description Hazelnut Bastille is a topdown adventure game with metroidvania elements which seeks to continue the great lineage of superior design from the mid 90's- the moment in time when mainstream 2D titles reached arguably their greatest level of refinement, in titles such as Super Metroid and Link to the Past. Hazelnut Bastille is set to release in 2018. Also, maybe buy a spare or two for the full release. I can’t really say much else without spoilers ,except to once again praise the environmental design, and strongly suggest you use a controller. This reverence for the past with an eye to the future continues into Hazelnut Bastille‘s two most memorable elements – the puzzles and boss fights. These deer weren’t in the demo, but they probably hunger for human flesh. In exploration, it’s clear how much thought has gone into making the demo level both intuitive to new players and evocative of the secret-laden labyrinths from gaming’s venerable past. In combat, much of the challenge and strategy lies in where to situate yourself. The environments in Hazelnut Bastille are where it all comes together. You’ll also gain an extra ability just in the short space of the demo, so I imagine the full release will be pushing your inventory space to its limits. A shield, power attacks, good ol’ spin-to-wins, bombs and crossbows are all at your disposal from the get go. Luckily, there’s a surprising amount of depth to the combat. Certain combinations of foes require a mix of strategy and those crafty thumbs to triumph unscathed. Each enemy has some unique twist or attack pattern to differentiate the experience of fighting them, and that’s just individually. The level on offer in Hazelnut Bastille‘s roughly 30 minute demo is a dungeon in the purest sense of the term. What I got was A Link to the Past on steroids. I was expecting Stardew Valley with deeper combat. I probably should have read developer Aloft’s promise that Hazelnut Bastille was a ‘frantically hectic challenge built for the craftiest thumbs’. It then proceeded to kick me repeatedly in the squishy parts, non-squishy parts, and parts that were pretty solid before all the kicking. Hazelnut Bastille lured me in with a cutesy name and a nostalgic, pastoral pixel-art covered website. ![]() Bernstein, who helped crack the Watergate story open at the Washington Post in the early 1970s, reportedly cheated on Ephron during their marriage, which ended in divorce. The pair worked together again on Ephron's autobiographical film "Heartburn" in 1986, which was based on her tumultuous relationship with her second husband, journalist Carl Bernstein. Streep starred in Ephron's first hit, 1983's "Silkwood," which was directed by Mike Nichols and earned Ephron her first Oscar nomination for screenwriting. Icons like Hanks, Meryl Streep, and Meg Ryan, often fronted her films. "From her earliest days at New York City's newspapers to her biggest Hollywood successes, Nora always loved a good New York story, and she could tell them like no one else."Įphron had most recently written the play "Lucky Guy," a drama based on the life of Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Mike McAlary, which was expected to open on Broadway in 2013 with Tom Hanks as its star.Įphron left an indelible mark on the field of romantic comedy. "The loss of Nora Ephron is a devastating one for New York City's arts and cultural community," Bloomberg said in a statement. Numerous notables, including New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, are mourning Ephron's passing. She contributed essays and reporting to outlets including the New York Times and the Huffington Post, for which she last wrote a story in June 2011.

Additionally, the clients tend to load their copy directly to their phone, car, and whatever other devices before releasing and they often email MP3s to friends/contributors so having a commercial quality file adds to that impression of professionalism. That’s why something as seemingly simple as metadata is a big deal for our studio. What are the benefits of following through with the plan to upgrade to Pro?Įxactly.

While mastering, my main concerns are to be able to easily go back into Nuendo to fix issues in the mix if any arise then jump back to WaveLab to continue mastering, use the DAW controls of the console, run through tape during mastering, use analog hardware, and encode cover-art & metadata during mastering. We use a hybrid mixer/control surface, a lot of analog processing, externally processed plugins (UAD2, WSG, AG, etc), and we’re looking to add either an Otari or Studer reel to reel this year (just haven’t decided how many tracks to go with yet). This is a professional recording studio offering both in-studio and remote mixing, mastering, and tracking. To help you help me, let me describe the environment we’ll be using it in and what for. What little I’ve gotten to test out so far has already made me fall in love. After installing the Nuendo 11.0.4 update, I can now easily move back and forth between Nuendo 11, Spectralayers Pro 8, and WaveLab Elements 11. to make me uninstall StudioOne and switch back to WL for mastering permanently. I only had time to test WaveLab Elements out for a moment but it appears to have everything I need. Sweetwater and Vintage King Audio both ran a sale on WaveLab Elements for Black Friday that made it about $50 cheaper to buy Elements and upgrade than to just buy WaveLab Pro, so I did it.
