The only difference in this version is a new sprite set for Luigi. Special bundles of the SNES in 1994 included a compilation cartridge mixing Super Mario World with Super Mario All-Stars. Yoshi, known for using their long tongues to snare and eat enemies, have become a fan-favorite among the series (giving them their own games and spin-offs, most notably this game's prequel). The game follows both Mario brothers as they explore Dinosaur Land (known for its large amount of dinosaurs) to find and defeat the evil Koopa king Bowser (and his seven underlings, the Koopalings) while rescuing Princess Toadstool.Īlong with new abilities (such as the 'Spin Jump'), a new power-up (the 'Cape Feather') and more obstacles, the game introduces dinosaur companions (known as Yoshi) that Mario and Luigi can ride.

Thee tunes add quite a lot to the special atmosphere and work well with the colorful visuals. The funny texts will follow you throughout the entire game, and if you’re a sharp enough you might even recognize some references.Ĭalum Bowen, who previously did the music for the excellent Snipperclips for the Nintendo Switch, composes all the tracks in the game’s soundtrack. In dialogue, most jokes are told through speech bubbles in all caps, but the way they are presented always manages to convey the tone and excitement. Pikuniku has a separate co-op mode, with levels specifically designed for two players. They are completely absurd and can put a smile on anyone’s face, adult or child.Įvery scene in the game is full of the kind of physical humor the begs you to take part. However, once you’re done with the single-player experience, you can invite a friend to play. While it depends on the player’s puzzle-solving skills, the studio is aiming for a 5 hours single-player experience. We asked Arnaud De Bock, designer and artist at Sectordub how long he thinks it can take some to finish the game. Later on, you get the ability to swing on special rings, slide down cables and transform into a race car for some reason. The developers want you to discover what the game is about through its unapologetic weirdness.Ĭontrolling Pikuniku is intentionally simple, so you can focus on solving the many different puzzles. When you start the game, all you can do walk in a mostly straight line (after a bit of practice), and turn into a ball to roll around. None of the game aspects, be it graphics, story or gameplay, is the main focus, nor are they conventional in any way. Pikuniku is an attempt to make a different kind of game, one with a different goal. Together, you will solve conspiracies, help the townsfolk and have ourselves a thriving Pikunikuish society.īut it won’t be easy, as nothing is as it seems. Trees can come to life, friends can turn into enemies, enemies can become friends, and the gameplay can suddenly flip everything on its head. You can also decide which puzzles you’re going to solve, and what even IS a puzzle every weird item you come across has the potential to become one all on its own. In this open world, you can choose which characters to assist and which secrets to uncover. It doesn’t look like it, but this colorful, crazy world is on the verge of collapse, as technology is interfering with the natural ecosystem.īut have no fear! Pikuniku is here to save the day. Our goal is simple: help everyone without harming anyone in the process. You play as Pikuniku, a cute red creature that is here to make everyone happy. Pikuniku is trying to out-crazy them all with environments, characters, and visuals that can only be described as “pure nonsense.” One glance at the game and you’ll immediately see the similarities to other crazy games like LocoRoco, Katamari Damacy, and the new Donut County. Pikuniku is a pretty weird puzzle game developed by indie studio Sectordub and published by Devolver.

To ensure you are truly hiring a FileMaker expert FileMaker has a certified developer program in which they vet potential members and have benchmarks that developers must reach to maintain their certified status.įileMaker is a non-relational database. Additionally, expert developers will be able to help with your systems analysis and workflow discovery. Developers who are experts with FileMaker often have numerous years of experience that can help you build and deploy your solution faster and mitigate many challenges before they arise. FALSE – Some think that FileMaker is so simple that they would never need to hire someone else to build something they could do themselves. I can do it all on my own, I don’t need a developer. As they say, looks can be deceiving it may look simple, but it can more often than not handle your database needs just fine. However, this simplicity and easy to use nature should not take away from the true magnitude at which FileMaker can operate. FALSE – Alluding to the previous point, FileMaker is very user-friendly and an easy to understand software. The starter solutions include everything from simple contact and task management solutions all the way up to content management systems.įileMaker is much too simple to handle my database needs. Much of the creation of databases revolves around simple drag and drop functionality and FileMaker Pro 13 is loaded with prebuilt starter templates, so you don’t have to start from scratch. New development tools have made it the easiest it’s ever been to transfer your paper and Excel sheets into a FileMaker database. FALSE – There are plenty of FileMaker users, who have zero experience coding, who have mastered the functionality of FileMaker. If you cannot code, you cannot use FileMaker. For example, some of the supporting FileMaker Pro operating systems include: OS X Yosemite v10.10, OS X Mavericks v10.9, OS X Mountain Lion v10.8, OS X Lion v10.7, Windows 8.1, Windows 8.1 Pro, Windows 8, Windows 8 Pro, Windows 7 Ultimate, Windows 7 Professional, and Windows 7 Home Premium, among others. FALSE – Contrary to what some believe, FileMaker is compatible with both Mac and Windows. So, here it is, CoreSolutions Presents: “Top 11 Misconceptions About FileMaker”įileMaker is Mac only software. Today, we thought we’d clear some of these misconceptions up for you. Whether you are a current FileMaker user or your last experience was back on FileMaker 7 (released more than 10 years ago), you’ve probably heard some misconceptions about what FileMaker can and cannot do. Since FileMaker’s first days under the Claris banner up until today, they have accomplished quite a lot they have not only become a subsidiary of the ever-powerful Apple Inc., but have released many versions of their database application software which has culminated to their newest release, FileMaker 13. Offering a bit of history, Matt Jackson, PE, SE, associate, Arup, New York, relates that early high-rise towers were steel framed, generally with rigid connections between columns and beams, in order to create a stiff frame to resist the wind loads. While the choice of building material for the core is dependent upon a variety of factors-including the height of the building, the size of the floor plate, and site logistics-a strong argument can be made for choosing steel-braced cores over their concrete alternatives. Attached to a series of outriggers that connect the core to the building perimeter, the dampers add additional stiffness. Supporting a sophisticated steel building core, Arup innovated a unique design of viscous dampers for a 40-story office tower at 250 West 55th Street in Midtown Manhattan. “Beyond structural, the core can also provide greater resilience, particularly for egress in emergency situations.” Sarkisian, PE, SE, LEED, partner, SOM, San Francisco. “We have found that the geometry of the core aligns well with the geometry required by the lateral loads,” relates Mark P. Usually a fixed programming zone that does not obstruct things like views and mechanical equipment placement, the building core is a convenient place to satisfy the structure’s wind and seismic requirements. The structural design for many of today’s commercial buildings is frequently focused on the building core, especially in the choice of materials used to construct it.

“Yeah, I have favorite words, like ‘elegies’ and ‘epiphany’ and ‘divorcée,’ and just words that I think sound beautiful, and I have lists and lists of them,” she says, with McCartney suggesting that “marzipan” should make it onto that list as well to Taylor’s delight. Swift says she found herself reading much more while recording Folklore, books such as Daphne du Maurier’s Rebecca, as well as using “bigger, flowerier, prettier” words in songs and delighting in slipping things like “epiphany” into tracks that might make it to radio. They also get to brass tacks about lyrics and whether they write the words or music first, with McCartney saying it’s never the same, because as he and John Lennon realized in their Beatles days, once you hit upon a “formula” for songwriting, it’s time to “rip it up” and find a new one. And I just remembered thinking, ‘I’ve got to remember that,’ that you do that set list for your fans.” It had new stuff, but it had every hit we wanted to hear, every song we’d ever cried to, every song people had gotten married to, or been brokenhearted to. “It was completely geared toward what it would thrill us to hear. Because I went with my family to see you in concert in 2010 or 2011, and the thing I took away from the show most was that it was the most selfless set list I had ever seen,” Swift says. Pulling back the veil a bit, Swift finally admits that she has written under the name “ Nils Sjöberg” - which is a combo of the two most popular male Swedish names - and McCartney recalls writing songs for his pals in Peter and Gordon under the name Bernard Webb, as well as collaborating with producer Youth as Fireman on dance albums.”I think it’s so cool that you do projects that are just for you. Paul McCartney Releasing Third Album in Solo Career-Spanning Series, 'McCartney III' “There’s so much stress everywhere you turn that I kind of wanted to make an album that felt sort of like a hug, or like your favorite sweater that makes you feel like you want to put it on.” “Yeah, I definitely think about that as a goal,” she says. “I know it, it’s in C!” McCartney flexes.Īt one point, McCartney talks about how satisfying it is to have fans tell him that one of his songs helped them through an illness or a rough run of exams, assuming Swift has had a similar experience. I was going to ask you.” Not only was the Beatles legend going to extend his hand, he was planning on playing her hit “Shake It Off” with her. “Were you going to invite me?” Swift asks. The biggest revelation, though, comes near the end, when McCartney reveals that he had planned to ask Swift to join him on stage at this summer’s COVID-canceled Glastonbury festival. The pair then fall into easy conversation about the recording process of their recent albums, their shared love of numerology and performing under pseudonyms and their surprising reticence to jump up and perform at celeb-packed parties. Swift describes 78-year-old McCartney dancing around and singing to Motown hits during the shoot and indulging her request that he hand-write her favorite lyric of his and sign it, which she promises to cherish forever. Here Are the 10 Best Commercials Taylor Swift Has Been In If you've got more tips for how to donate magazines, or additional suggestions for places we can all share them in our communities, please tell me below in the comments.Įven More Tips For Donating Household Items To Charity Make sure they are actually accepting the magazines and will have a use for them, so you are actually helping, not making an inconvenience. In addition, try to give hobby type magazines to a group who would enjoy them so they are well appreciated.įinally, before you donate to any of these locations a quick phone call or discussion with the receiptionist may be helpful. You don't want to give somethig inappropriate to small children for example. Things To Remember When You Donate Magazines To Charity Or Other Placesīefore you give away any of your old magazines (such as during your declutter magazines mission here on the site), make sure you remove or mark through the address labels that are on them, so others don't see your name and address.įurther, consider the theme of the magazine before you donate them. I got to read several magazines I didn't even subscribe to, and it was a great excuse for everyone to get together monthly and have a girls night, along with actually trading magazines. I had a little magazine swap going with several of my friends for a couple of years, before we all started discontinuing our subscriptions because we got too busy with kids, and it was a lot of fun. This is actually my favorite suggestion, and actually can be used in combination with any of the other ones above, since the last person in the swap can then donate them to the places listed. Swap Magazines With Your Friends And Family Schools, preschools and daycare centers are always on the look out for (family friendly) magazines they can use with their kids, to let them have some fun, and they'll really appreciate the resource. They would cut pictures out and glue them on just about any type of project the teachers could think of. My kids, when they were in preschool, used pictures from magazines all the time during arts and crafts. Preschools And Daycare Centers For Use In Crafts It works great because the patients get better magazines, you can read them new and guilt free and they get recycled in the end! 6. When they're not in reading shape in the waiting rooms, they recyle them. I just cut the white label where my information is off before they go. I put them in the box there and the volunteers drop them off in all of the different waiting rooms. I don't want to waste them because they're perfectly good. (I have a freecycle account and they're free). I love them and get over 10 subscriptions a month. For example, if you've got car magazines donate them to the oil change business, or Guideposts (I love that magazine!) to your dentist office waiting room.Ī reader, Kristi, shared: The Hospital I used to volunteer at has a special drop box for magazines. If you really want to have the recipients appreciate them, choose waiting rooms for businesses and organizations whose clients would enjoy the type of magazines you are donating. Doctor And Dentist Offices, Hospitals And Other Waiting RoomsĪny place that has a waiting room, where people are looking to pass the time, is an ideal place to donate magazines. The same can be true of women and families in shelters who may appreciate something to take their mind off other matters for a while with an interesting article or two. Sitting back and reading a magazine can help you relax and take your mind off things, which is one of the reasons we all enjoy getting them. Similary, veterans associations may be looking for reading material as well. Our country's solidiers, especially those serving overseas, are often looking for fresh reading material too, and would appreciate your donated magazines. Therefore, they are often appreciative of new reading material, and also a friendly chat when you come to drop the magazines off. Many elderly people are looking for items to entertain themselves, especially if it is difficult for them to move around. (The same goes for all the ideas listed below since not all areas and organizations have the same policies and procedures.) 2. Even if the library does not need the magazines itself, for its patrons, many libraries hold a Friend of the Library Sale where they can sell your used magazines to help with their own fundraising.īe warned, however, that not all libraries accept these magazine donations, so call ahead and inquire before you drop them all off at their doorstep. One of my favorite places to donate both books and magazines is to my local library. Make your way through the dungeon and try to recover your memory in Lost Ruins.
