![]() Once again, it has absolutely no scent when it was lit, despite being strong on cold. I exchanged it for Autumn Adventure, which I burned for the first time today. I recently exchanged Apple Weather, which I loved the smell of on cold but had no smell when it was lit. But, the fact that I can sit next to the past few candles I've purchased from B&BW and not smell anything is ridiculous. I don't need the scent to fill the entire household-it is nice, but definitely not a requirement for me. only for me to get home and burn them and not be able to smell them at all.

Once you're satisfied with the size settings, click OK to view your newly-resized image. To do this, select Percent from the menus next to "Height" and "Width," and then enter a percentage value. If you need to specify exact Height and Width sizes, click the link button to turn off automatic proportioning, and then enter your measurements.Ī different way to resize the image is to grow or shrink it by a percentage of its original size. When you enter a width, the height value changes automatically to retain the image's proportions, ensuring that the resized version doesn't stretch or warp. Now, type the new width size into the "Width" box. You'll see your image's current size in pixels next to "Width" and "Height." If you'd rather use a measurement unit other than pixels, such as millimeters or inches, click the triangle next to "Dimensions" and select that unit. Then, click the Image menu and select Image Size. First, if you haven't made a backup of the original image, click the File menu, select Save as, enter a new filename for the resized image, such as filename-resized, and then click Save. You can use Adobe Photoshop on your PC or Mac to change the size of nearly any image.
![]() Things within Silithus became so laggy and contentious that the group I was in was essentially forced out to a nearby, lower-level zone to "participate" in the event. Mechanically, however, what you see is a number of boss enemies spawn around Silithus, and players are incentivized to kill them not to avoid any sort of fail state, but rather because these high-level NPCs have increased chances to drop epic-quality items. Narratively, the gong-ringing triggers the War of The Shifting Sands, in which the ancient bug army sealed away within Ahn'Qiraj finally pours forth and players must battle them back for the fate of the world. A number of unlucky players - at least a handful from my own guild - found themselves unable to even enter the zone surrounding Ahn'Qiraj, Silthus, as Blizzard developers put a 1,500-player limit in an effort to prevent the servers from crashing entirely.ĭespite witnessing a twice-in-a-lifetime video game event, in some ways it felt anti-climactic. ![]() Those who died in the intra-player struggle for control over the gong, found themselves unable to resurrect and were essentially stuck watching things unfold from a muted, ghostly perspective. At least I was there when the gong was rung. Fifteen years later, we were ready to recreate one of the most epic moments in WoW history for WoW Classic by focusing on server optimization to combat lag and eliminate server crashes."Īnd my experience was relatively positive compared to others'. "While we did manage to stabilize servers during the event, and learned quite a few lessons, we saw opportunities to do better. The turnout was beyond the development team’s wildest imaginings and, simply put, we were not prepared," the company wrote in a post-mortem breakdown two weeks after the first gate openings in Classic. "When the War of the Shifting Sands took place the first (and only) time in 2006, thousands of players from each realm flew or hoofed it over to Silithus to partake in or witness the chaos. It's something that Blizzard publicly acknowledged and tried to mitigate by stress-testing the event beforehand. Nearly a decade and a half later, the biggest question on the minds of players wasn't so much what's going to happen once the gates open, but whether the servers would hold up in the moments leading up to it. "There was horrendous lag, hour-long queues to get onto servers, servers constantly losing peoples' locations upon death and porting them to the default graveyards in Stonetalon and Westfall, and boats doing all sorts of crazy things." We're talking things breaking," wrote Alex Ziebart in his recounting of the Ahn'Qiraj event for Engadget. "We're not just talking server crashes (though that certainly did happen). It was an unprecedented event that, infamously, led to an unprecedented amount of technical issues when servers began opening gates back in 2006. ![]() ![]() Second, put the time and money into strengthening the areas where you are vulnerable. Doing whatever you can to reduce your vulnerability could also reduce your insurance costs. This will in turn be reflected in the cost of your insurance. If insurance companies suspect that you are more vulnerable in certain ways, this will be factored into the amount of risk they are willing to take. Once you know your vulnerability or areas of weakness, you can take steps to protect your family, pets and property.įirst, make sure that you have the proper home insurance, which covers for specific losses where you suspect you are vulnerable.

Given the lightness that has preceded it, the thoughtful ending feels like reality has brusquely broken in. Schoenaerts brings deep-rooted resentment and brooding to the film’s sole dramatic role, creating some much-needed motivation for the final scenes and the choice Addie makes between Louis and her family. When they get back, trouble is waiting in the shape of Gene. Opening the film up beyond the sleepy neighborhood and the house on Cedar and 12th Street, Batra sends the trio on an idyllic camping trip in the Colorado mountains, beside a breath-taking river. ![]() The dynamics between the three characters is gently engaging rather than dramatic, and you can feel the energy shifting as rom-com is put on the back burner to family life, train sets, a new dog. (The fact that the oldsters don’t own these new-fangled contraptions is a bit unlikely, but becomes a plot point later on.) His stay with grandma while Gene tries to get his life together introduces the first real challenge to Addie and Louis’ arrangement, and their way around it is both sensible and amusing. Jamie (well sketched by young Iain Armitage) is a quiet boy glued to the games on his cell phone. Then, just as their relationship is sailing merrily along, Addie’s angry son Gene (Matthias Schoenaerts) drives up and announces his wife has run off, leaving him with their seven-year-old son. She tells him, in tears, about a personal tragedy that has marked her life. He tells her he has always thought of her as a person of character who kept her chin up after her husband died. She is understanding, non-judgmental and wise. She says she always thought of him as a good man - a judgment that not all the townspeople share when it comes out, on their third night together, that he once left his wife and daughter for a brief affair with a fellow teacher. On the other hand, it’s hard to imagine two better-matched people sharing pillow talk. They come off as gossipy, ungenerous townsfolk, but maybe that’s mostly in Louis’ guilty mind. Bruce Dern plays an old geezer who is the ringleader of Louis’s coffee buddies. Naturally, it doesn’t take long for word to spread around town. By the time Louis finally settles down to make a few remarks, she is already fast asleep. That night their mutual nervousness isn’t very conducive to conversation or companionship, yet there is a delicious sense that these two weathered souls are boldly breaking a worthless taboo as they climb into Addie’s big bed together, in full night clothes. The first night that he shows up at her house, he brings his PJs in a brown paper bag and discreetly comes round the back. What will people say, after all, when they get wind of their unusual arrangement? Addie is articulate and daring Louis is tongue-tied, formal and a bit boring, not as prepared as she is to make a leap into the unknown. Hanging onto the delicacy and restraint of Haruf’s novel, he sings the praises of the basic decency of ordinary American folk in search of a measure of happiness, even as they make choices that go against social norms and make tongues wag. ![]() They are directed with sophistication and without a drop of melodrama or sentimentality by Ritesh Batra, who recently directed Jim Broadbent and Charlotte Rampling in a BBC adaptation of the Julian Barnes novel The Sense of an Ending. Reservations aside, both Redford and Fonda are charming, delicate and convincing as Addie Moore and Louis Waters, the couple who find each other at the tail end of their lives. Premiering on the big screen in Venice, it made an appropriate, historic salute to the ageless pair who are being awarded twin Gold Lions for their career achievements. It’s fascinating as well as heartening to see that their chemistry and sex appeal are still intact as they circle 80, and one imagines this Netflix original film will prove irresistible to the older demographic. Here the casting dominates the story, sacrificing some of the novel’s density and depth for the much wider appeal of reuniting Robert Redford and Jane Fonda onscreen since The Chase (1966), Barefoot in the Park (1967) and The Electric Horseman (1979). It could have been made as a very different film for festival and art house audiences. So begins, without further preamble, the romantic comedy Our Souls as Night, adapted from Kent Haruf’s quiet, deeply thoughtful final novel. Talk and companionship, not sex, is what she’s after. One day a widow knocks on the door of a widower she barely knows, though they have lived in the same small town in Colorado for what must be 70 years, and proposes they dispel their loneliness by sleeping together. ![]() ![]() While Adobe Acrobat offers more tools than most people need, it's hands-down the best option if you work with PDF files daily.
