After watching the video, you will pause the lesson to check in about how they are feeling. Tell students that now you are going to watch a video that tells a more accurate story about who Columbus was. In the past, teachers haven’t told the whole story to younger students because some of the things Columbus did were very violent. Tell students that it is common to have some misunderstandings about who Columbus was and American colonization because we often do not learn the real history. Ask students what they wonder about Columbus and write their responses in the W column.Ĥ. Call on four or five students and write their thinking on the K (know) column of the KWL chart on the board. Circulate and note student responses, especially misconceptions. Tell students to turn and talk about what they think they know about why Christopher Columbus is celebrated each year. Tell students you are going to use a KWL chart to track their learning, and at the end of the lesson, you will ask them to identify the reasons people want the holiday changed.ģ. Tell students that they will be learning more about who Christopher Columbus was, why a national holiday celebrates him, and why some people want the holiday changed.

Ask students to show you how much they know about why we celebrate Columbus Day with a sign: by giving you a thumbs down (I have no idea), a thumbs sideways (I’ve heard of Columbus and I know a little about him), or a thumbs up (I am sure I know why we celebrate Columbus Day). Then, tell students that today (or Monday) is Columbus Day. Ask students to raise their hands if they know which federal holiday today is (or if teaching the week before, on Monday).

![]() The trickster in most native traditions is essential to creation, to birth. ![]() Humans had to have tricksters within the most sacred ceremonies for fear that they forget the sacred comes through upset, reversal, surprise. People could not pray until they had laughed, because laughter opens and frees from rigid preconception. Many native traditions held clowns and tricksters as essential to any contact with the sacred. While the trickster crosses various cultural traditions, there are significant differences between tricksters in the traditions of different parts of the world: The clown on the other hand is a persona of a performer who intentionally displays their actions in public for an audience. They are internal to the character or person. The trickster is a term used for a non-performing "trick maker" they may have many motives behind their intention but those motives are not largely in public view. In southern African a ǀKaggen is often the trickster, usually taking the form of a praying mantis. In West Africa (and thence into the Caribbean via the slave trade), the spider (see Anansi) is often the trickster. In a wide variety of African-Americans communities, the rabbit, or hare, is the trickster (see Brer Rabbit). He becomes a mare who later gives birth to Odin's eight-legged horse Sleipnir. Loki also exhibits sex variability, in one case even becoming pregnant. In Norse mythology the mischief-maker is Loki, who is also a shapeshifter. Loki cuts the hair of the goddess Sif.įrequently the trickster figure exhibits gender and form variability. In Slavic folktales, the trickster and the culture hero are often combined. He is the patron of thieves and the inventor of lying, a gift he passed on to Autolycus, who in turn passed it on to Odysseus. In some Greek myths Hermes plays the trickster. ![]() Many cultures have tales of the trickster, a crafty being who uses tricks to get food, steal precious possessions, or simply cause mischief. The trickster openly questions, disrupts or mocks authority. Tricksters can be cunning or foolish or both. Often, this bending or breaking of rules takes the form of tricks or thievery. ![]() The trickster crosses and often breaks both physical and societal rules: Tricksters "violate principles of social and natural order, playfully disrupting normal life and then re-establishing it on a new basis." Lewis Hyde describes the trickster as a "boundary-crosser". Tricksters, as archetypal characters, appear in the myths of many different cultures. In mythology and the study of folklore and religion, a trickster is a character in a story ( god, goddess, spirit, human or anthropomorphisation) who exhibits a great degree of intellect or secret knowledge and uses it to play tricks or otherwise disobey normal rules and defy conventional behavior. The trickster figure Reynard the Fox as depicted in an 1869 children's book by Michel Rodange For other uses, see Trickster (disambiguation). ![]() ![]() ![]() Then start process.cmd and croped animation with every odd frame will be processed into file input.gif Then edit test.bat and change value of variable 166 from this line to match to number of frames of animation :įor /L %%i IN (1,2,166) DO echo "#%%i"> input.bat, after edit save test.bat.

The backticks ( `) around the seq command cause its output to be included as parameters in the gifsicle command line. ![]() The -f "#%g" makes it print a # before each number, which makes gifsicle understand it as a frame selection instead of a file name. The seq command just outputs a sequence of numbers from 0 to 99, counting up in steps of 2. With JohnB's sample animation, it shrinks the output size down by 27%. (If your input animation is already unoptimized, gifsicle may print a warning about it, but this is also completely harmless.)Ĭonversely, the -O2 switch re-optimizes the output animation to minimize the file size. ![]() You really want to do this before doing pretty much anything with animations, otherwise you're likely to get messy results. The -U switch will merge frames in the input animation with the preceding ones, so that each frames stands alone and doesn't depend in any others. (It's OK to use a larger number, but gifsicle will complain about it.) Replace input.gif and output.gif with the input and output file names, and 99 with the number of frames in your animation.

![]() Minecraft for Switch also currently lags behind its console peers, lacking recently added features like “Amplified” terrain, or the “Glide” mini game. Like language selection (the PS4 and Xbox One versions support more than a dozen others, the Switch version only supports English), game chat during online play (the Switch doesn’t yet support voice chat), viewing Leaderboards or inviting friends (you can see other friends’ sessions and join those, but can’t manually wave them over to yours). Though it includes the colorful Super Mario-themed world previously exclusive to the Wii U version, it’s missing a few features that I assume will appear down the pike. Like all of the console versions, which are developed and maintained by Scottish independent 4J Studios and not Mojang, it can’t interact with the Java or C++ versions that currently colonize PCs, smartphones and tablets (and that Mojang’s Jens Bergensten told TIME last November 2016 the C++ version “will eventually be the main engine and also the main game version”). It offers world sizes up to “medium,” or 3,072-by-3,072 blocks, a massive upgrade from the Wii U’s 864-by-864 “classic” perimeter, but notably shy of the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One’s 5,120-by-5,120 “large” world frontiers. The console versions have the opposite problem: perfect controls tethered to television boat anchors.Įnter Minecraft for Switch, which to be fair isn’t the utmost version in all dimensions. What makes Minecraft for smartphones and tablets so compelling is convenience. It’s the baked-in shortcoming of any 3D first-person 360-degree control scheme yet devised for a multitouch device that lacks discrete buttons and control sticks. ![]() This has nothing to do with Mojang or Minecraft. At the risk of offending tablet apologists, Minecraft on smartphones and tablets is a wonderful experience marred by poor controls. The significance of there now being a continuous TV-mobile version of Minecraft can’t be overstated. Pluck it from its cradle and it’s in your hands, the experience undifferentiated save for its shift to the Switch’s smaller 6.2-inch screen. ![]() Drop it in its dock and Minecraft is on your TV, where it’s all but analogous to the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions. ![]() The Switch, you’re probably tiring of hearing (especially if you’re still trying to find one), goes wherever you do.

I wonder if you can add a widget or something like it in the top corner (next to volume and WiFi and things like that) that displays current use of CPU and maybe RAM. A completely idle processor would have a load value of 0.

Click on the % CPU column to order by CPU hogs first and you'll soon see which processes are at fault.

But in its 75 minutes the film started a revolution of its own within cinema and Eisenstein's quick, expressive editing and eye for montage still feel fresh. Nina Agadzhanova's original screenplay was, to be fair, commissioned as a piece of propaganda to celebrate the 1905 uprising on said battleship which spilled out into wider Russian society. It was considered so inflammatory and socialist it was banned by the BBFC in 1926, and only granted an 'X' rating in 1954 after Stalin's death. Sergei Eisenstein's opus is one of the cornerstones of cinema, but for many years you couldn't see it in the UK. Universal History Archive // Getty Images It's extraordinarily rich and visually intoxicating see the opening one-shot sequence where the killer sets the time bomb, and the camera sweeps around town, letting the tension gradually tick and tock up and up. But the version which finally saw the light of day in 1998 – reworked by The Godfather and Apocalypse Now editor Walter Murch – sticks to what Welles wanted, and turned it into the movie it could have been. Welles' vision was hacked about by four different editors, and reshoots and extra scenes were forced upon him by the studio. Welles ended up helping with the script too, and wanted to make a thriller which didn't let up for a second: a taut, riveting thing which melded his visionary instincts with pop clout. Welles signed on to direct and star alongside Charlton Heston and Janet Leigh in the story of a special prosecutor who's trying to enjoy his honeymoon when an assassination by time bomb brings him back to the day job. ![]() We are considering COO candidates at the base salary level of 225K and above.For decades this was one of the great lost Hollywood classics.
