![]() A fission of Piaroa (Venezuela) fits this scenario. On the other extreme, a lineage assortment index near unity represents a lineal fission that maximizes the relatedness of subgroups such as the perfect split of a lineage into sublineages. Two fissions of Ache villages (Paraguay) are examples of this type of fission with a low lineage assortment index not significantly different from zero as evaluated with controlled simulations. We develop a lineage assortment index where low values represent subgroups with coefficients of relatedness near those expected if nuclear and extended households had chosen to associate into random groupings. However, random individual assortment is not an appropriate null model for evaluating lineage assortment because nuclear families and extended households are expected to remain together, which in and of itself forces higher relatedness in smaller subgroups. Fission processes that increase the average relatedness of subgroups are important because relatedness governs how strongly kin/group selection favors social behaviors such as warfare, peacekeeping, and other forms of collection action. As found for other social animals, human fissions lead to subgroups that have higher levels of relatedness as compared with the original community because of kin-biased assortment known as the lineal effect. An ethnographic review shows that most human group fissions are fueled primarily by internal political conflict and secondarily by resource scarcity. ![]() Causes, Consequences, and Kin Bias of Human Group Fissions Causes, Consequences, and Kin Bias of Human Group Fissionsįissions of human communities are monumental occasions with consequences for cultural and genetic variation and divergence through time by means of serial founder effects. ![]() ![]() Know who else relied on donkey power for transportation? The mother of Jesus, that’s who. The Spectra doesn’t run on horsepower it runs on donkey power. Just like that time Mexico invaded Canada, nobody sees it coming.

Those brave enough to publicly grip the steering wheel of The Spectra are immediately illuminated with a divine light of realization: whether rich or poor beautiful or ugly intelligent or Republican someone is going to hate on you, no matter who you are or what you do. It’s a legitimate-sounding fact that the 2001 Kia Spectra inspired one of the most profound philosophical quotes of our time, back in the year two-thousand-and-fourteen A.D., by contemporary theologian T-Swift: “Haters gonna hate.” If only they knew that The Spectra can cut them to the front of that spiritual waiting line faster than a handicapped person at Disneyworld.

According to the information provided by the minister of state for communication Devusingh Chauhan, BSNL has lost around 2 crore subscribers in the past five years.Īs per the latest telecom regulator data, BSNL and MTNL together have a market share of only 10% in the wireless segment. And while after the ₹70,000 crore revival package in 2019, the telco turned EBITDA positive (operating profit) in 2020-21, it continues to lose its subscriber base. The state-owned telco has suffered a loss of ₹50,631 crore in the past five years. For any meaningful turnaround, only monetary support will not be enough, it also needs change in working culture and corporate structure matching industry standards,” added Tapse. “And while its competitors are talking about 5G, BSNL is yet to implement 4G technology. Tapse suggests that the government should focus on bringing in high-end technology and a team that can execute the plan of BSNL being a profit-making company. The telecom sector being a highly capital-intensive area, BSNL misses the aggressive strategies to get things executed. The last package was granted in FY2019 for ₹24,000 crore for 4G upgrade but unfortunately, not allotted due to BSNL technology upgradation delay. Moreover, this is not the first revival package by the government to support and transform the stressed telco into a financially viable, sustainable and vibrant player. Prashanth Tapse, Research Analyst, Senior VP (Research) of Mehta Equities believes that the assumption of making operational profits would be difficult in the competitive environment wherein Bharti and Jio are in a tug-of-war to gain market share. However, not everyone is convinced the package could make much of a difference. It will help the operator to be in a better position to attract price-sensitive yet data hungry consumers and offer services to areas not yet covered by private players,” says Paliwal of Counterpoint Research. “Capital infusion will aid its much-needed 4G launch and network expansion, which is important for its long-term survival. They believe BSNL can give competition to private telcos in areas such as fixed-broadband and even earn decent revenue in the enterprise segment from small and medium businesses and consumers in rural areas, but that might not be good enough. However, experts have a different take on it. We get ₹5,500 crore from wireline while ₹7000 crore from wireless,” said Puwar to support his optimism. “Out of the total ₹20,000 crore revenue, we annually get ₹3,000 crore from rural and rest of the ₹17,000 we get from urban and semi-urban areas. BSNL chairman Pravin Kumar Purwar also sounded optimistic about the company’s future growth. With the latest relief package, we expect BSNL to become net profitable in the next three-four years,” said telecom minister Ashwini Vaishnaw while announcing the package. The package helped BSNL in becoming operationally profitable. “The 2019 relief package gave BSNL a lifeline. Also, the government believes the company will be in a position to give competition to the private and established telecom operators like Reliance Jio, Bharti Airtel and Vodafone Idea. With this package, the government expects the state-owned telco to be a profitable entity in the next three years. The relief package will be utilized to de-stress the BSNL’s balance sheet, expand its fibre reach and improve the quality of the company’s services. To give a lifeline to the ailing telco, the government recently approved a ₹1.64 lakh crore package. ![]() And hopefully, BSNL’s 5G leap will not be as delayed as its 4G leap if revival plans work out successfully,” said Charu Paliwal, Research Analyst, Counterpoint Research. Therefore, BSNL will soon have another technology cycle to catch up. “Other operators are on the verge of launching 5G services and are expected to have adequate coverage (at least in prime areas) in another 3-4 years. ![]() The loss-making BSNL’s 5G leap shouldn’t be delayed as happened with its 4G leap, they added. Telecom sector experts feel BSNL will have to quickly adopt 5G technology if it wants the ₹1.64-lakh-crore revival plans to be successfully executed. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The Medic is the only class capable of regenerating health over time the longer a Medic stays out of combat, the faster his health will recover. While healing, the Medic's ÜberCharge bar will fill up until the weapon begins to crackle, at which point he can activate a deadly charge that either makes himself and an ally temporarily invulnerable (when using the default Medi Gun) or gives his patient 100% critical shots for up to 8 seconds (when using the Kritzkrieg). While his Medigun is focused on an ally, wounded teammates will quickly regain health, while unharmed teammates' health will be temporarily topped up. His intelligence even outsmarted Satan's, allowing Medic to escape Hell and return to the living world, resurrected.Īs the Medic doesn't possess the best arsenal for straight-up gunplay, he can typically be found near the front-lines, healing wounded teammates while trying to stay out of trouble. Medic is a scientific genius inventing the Medi Gun and Kritzkrieg, calculating how many days they have left before the "tumor" kills them, and even assisting Engineer in his experiments. Despite this, Medic is supportive and responsible to his own team, especially Heavy, taking the role of the only mercenary dedicated to medical expertise among them. Medic is a maniacal scientist, shown to much, like the other characters, enjoy violence at great heights, as shown in his voice lines and Meet the Team video, where he keeps varying organs including a dismembered head of a BLU Spy, ready for use inside a fridge. He then uses this opportunity to rejoin the fight and help the RED team, mainly by distracting the Classic Heavy. This time, Medic sells one of his souls for a pen, to get at least fifty years more of life - during which Satan must successfully tempt him at least three more times to get a majority stake to send him to hell. But before he completes the deal, he informs Satan that he has surgically grafted eight more souls onto his own and so Satan is not a majority shareholder. However, it is revealed that Medic had made a deal with Satan, and owes his soul to him (although it is not revealed exactly what he sold his soul for). Just before fighting Heavy, Classic Heavy shot Medic twice in the chest, killing him. However, Classic Heavy overcame Medic, and was about to kill him when Heavy showed up. Classic Heavy turned up and ordered Medic to help sew the immortality machine into him, but to his surprise Medic fought back. Shortly he repairs Demoman's knee (putting a little brain in there even as he did so). Medic rejoins his team, and when their blood is sucked out by robots, puts the blood back in. Even as Medic prepared to return to the field, Classic Heavy ordered him to remain in his lab, angering the Medic. Classic Heavy caught him doing so and was furious, and then killed Medic's pet dove, Archimedes. He successfully revived Sniper even after twelve hours of brain death, and warned him about how his experiments were very expensive, so it would be a bad idea to get killed again. ![]() It later becomes apparent he is now working for the Team Fortress Classic Team, who has been hired by Gray Mann to find the Administrator and kill the TF2 mercenary team.Īfter the Classic Team killed Sniper, Medic used that opportunity to experiment on the corpse. In the comic Ring of Fired, the Medic is considered the best off while the rest of the mercenaries were fired, presumed to be working as a highly paid Doctor. He was voiced by Robin Atkin Downes, who also voiced Mumm-Ra in the 2011 Thundercats TV series, Travis Touchdown in the No More Heroes series, and Talbot in the 2011 video-game Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception.įor the most part, the Medic only recently began playing a major role in the comics. ![]() While healing, the Medic's ÜberCharge bar will fill up until the weapon begins to crackle, at which point he can activate a deadly charge that either makes himself and an ally temporarily invulnerable (when using the default Medigun) or gives his patient guaranteed critical hits for eight seconds (when using the Kritzkrieg). He can typically be found near the front-lines, healing wounded teammates while trying to stay out of trouble. He is a German Teutonic man of medicine with a rather tenuous adherence to medical ethics, and the primary healing class of the team. Ludwig, better known as The Medic, is a villain/playable character in Team Fortress 2. ![]() ![]() ![]() And in the story it is a crucial fight between two very powerful characters. I prefer choreographing one-on-one fighting sequences because it allows me lots of freedom to design different styles and movements. Q: Which fight scene was the most enjoyable to execute? Which was the most difficult? A: The most enjoyable one is the final fight between Vincent and Andy On at the secret chamber. Compared to the past, I tried to add some street dance elements into some fighting scenes in True Legend. I want to emphasis the contrast between these two. For Drunken Fist, it is a very powerful but free-style fighting. This is the first time that I use it in my movie. ![]() Was it fun to depict these disciplines again, and did you approach the staging/filming of them differently than you have in the past? A: Five Venom Fist as a less-known style are rarely used in martial art films. Q: We see Five Venom Fist and Drunken Fist in TRUE LEGEND. I like the story and would like to pay the homage to my father. True Legend gives me a chance to depict this legendry character as a leading role and in a more detailed way. For example, in Drunken Master, my dad played Su as Jackie Chan’s master. But the character is often portrayed as a supporting role. Q: Why did you want to revisit the legend of Su Qi-Er aka Beggar So? A: The story of Beggar Su has been translated to big screen for many times. In the meantime, here's a cool little back-and-forth with the greatest fight choreographer working today. One day, I'd like to sit down with the master and conduct a proper AICN Legends interview - or, better yet, watch him stage a big brawl like the wild brother-versus-brother showdown in the middle of TRUE LEGEND. Being of sound mind, I quickly whipped up some inquiries and passed them along. For all the bone-snapping and blood-spurting, TRUE LEGEND is actually a very sweet movie.Ī couple of weeks ago, I was asked if I wanted to submit questions via email to Mr. And while the inventively-staged combat is up to the very high standards Yuen and his stunt team have set throughout their forty-year-long career, it's the heartfelt quality of the narrative that really sets this movie apart. In TRUE LEGEND, Yuen and screenwriter To Chi-Long have envisioned the legend of Beggar So as a sprawling tale of family torn asunder, reunited, and tragically torn asunder again. It is the epic story of Su Qi-Er aka Beggar So, a legendary figure in the martial arts world who's been depicted in everything from the original DRUNKEN MASTER (also directed by Yuen) to Stephen Chow's KING OF BEGGARS. TRUE LEGEND is Yuen Woo-Ping's very entertaining return to the director's chair after a fourteen-year layoff. ![]() ![]() ![]() Also, you’ll want a roof otherwise they’ll all start climbing on top of each other like that scene in World War Z. For example, Tabby Slimes can jump high, like a cat, so the standard sized wall is pointless as they will jump right out! So you’ll need to invest in the higher wall. My advice would be to simply get as many plorts as you can and then sell them off asap in the first few hours, that way you’ll have enough money to actually buy decent enclosures for your victims. ![]() It’s all about ensuring you play the stock market and get the best price possible. Just like the stock market, the price of plorts goes up and down based on supply and demand – if you hog the plorts for a while, their price will go up, but if you sell a load then the price will lower the next day. Every time a slime eats, it poops out a ‘plort’ which you can suck up and then sell via the sales wall. Once you’ve caught some and you’ve put them in their new prison, you need to feed them via going out and looking for food or starting up your own fruit or veg garden within your ranch in one of your free plots of land. Rock Slimes will smash into you upon sight in order to hurt you and Tabby ones are basically cats, they’ll jump into you playfully but without hurting you. You’ll also bump into ‘Rock Slimes’ and ‘Tabby Slimes’ in the opening area. ![]() Pink Slimes are everywhere and their poop is the lowest in terms of resell value but they do have other advantages which I’ll come to later. Once you’ve done that, you head out and begin to capture your prey from their natural habitat. Your first task will be to purchase an enclosure to store your slimes in. If you’ve played any kind of farming game before then Slime Rancher will be very similar, even though it’s like nothing you’ve played before in terms of most of its mechanics. They observe and admire from afar – ensure you have a roof! So yeah, the controls are simple to pick up and learn and the only issue you’ll have is you may blow when you meant to suck – it happens to all of us… The D-pad is also mapped to things like your map and slimepedia, but they can also be accessed with the Options button, so I never used them. Face-buttons are just as simple – Cross jumps, Square interacts, Circle pushes slimes away (when unlocked) and Triangle is your flashlight. The Left and Right stick are your usual look and move controls ( Slime Rancher also has the y-axis invert option!). L2 is used to suck in your victims (slimes, poop, food and chickens), R2 shoots them back out with R1 and L1 swapping between your four slots, similar to Minecraft. At its core, Slime Rancher plays like a First Person Shooter, but with a giant ‘vacpack’ as your chosen weapon. ![]() In terms of the controls, Monomi Park has created the perfect control scheme as everything is so easy to operate and remember. Slime Rancher is pretty much all of those aspects, you’re mindlessly collecting slimes and resources, creating pens to hold your prisoners, growing your own crops to feed them, and then selling off their poop to make money so you can expand and do it again to their friends. As such, I can usually watch a TV show, listen to a podcast, or even talk to someone whilst I play it and not worry about getting confused with my multitasking. However, I find games I don’t have to think about too much helps me to relax and pass the time by knowing I’m progressing but not having to ‘be all there’ as I play in order to know what’s going on. I’m a massive fan of resource management, simulations, farming and mindless monotonous games – I know, it’s a strange combination. What’s that? There’s a broken bridge which she can’t cross – nevermind, she’ll construct a jetpack so she can overcome the obstacle and search out more money-makers! The depth comes into the game when you have to go and explore in order to find the various varieties of slime, create Frankenstein creations so you can obtain more of the expensive poop, and unlock new areas to expand your small ranch. Nothing will hold young Beatrix back, if she sees a locked door she doesn’t go home and cries about it, she’ll overfeed a fat slime in order to make it burst and turn into a key. However, she won’t be looking after pigs, cows and sheep, ‘Far Far Range’ specialises in slimes and their poop. You play the role of Beatrix LeBeau, a young energetic rancher who has decided to try something new and travel a thousand light-years from Earth in order to run her own ranch. In a way, it technically is pretty much a sandbox as you’re free to progress at your own pace, but there is an underlining story in the background. I thought it was just going to be an open sandbox where everything was a free-for-all. An aspect of Slime Rancher that I wasn’t really expecting is the fact that there is a story in play. ![]() ![]() ![]() The TCM approach to treating Bell’s palsy with acupuncture and herbs can be helpful as either an adjunct to conventional treatment, or an alternative for those who wish to avoid steroids.

Those traits come at the cost of DPS, which is very good but not as high as other specs. ![]() Frost is mana efficient with high survivability, with tools such as Improved Frost Nova and Ice Barrier to help control mobs. Mage Leveling Specs in Burning Crusade Classicįrost is one of the two best Mage specs for leveling. See your spec guide for specific guidance on the most desirable stats for your build. Gear scaling is directly related to their DPS output, so you'll be looking for any gear that increases your Spell Power, Spell Haste, and Spell Crit, as well as Intellect. Just because they're not a Melee class doesn't mean Mages get to ignore gear. While they're cloth wearers, they're still gear dependent. ![]() Fire is in the middle, and Frost is the most mana efficient. Arcane is the worst, which is why it isn't recommended as a leveling spec. An OOM (Out of Mana) mage in combat is probably a dead mage, so try not to be surprised with an empty tank. Thankfully, you have tools to help you control and get away from such situations. Mages must try not to let mobs close with them into melee range even though you can still cast all your spells against them, interrupts from being beaten over the head are real and you won't survive a drubbing for long. AoE farming can be a little tricky to learn to do well, but once mastered, it's one of the fastest ways both to level and to farm cash. They can summon water and food for party members (hurrah for the addition of Ritual of Refreshment and its self-service buffet!), buff the party with Arcane Intellect, and at the end of the dungeon, the Mage is everyon's best friend for giving them a handy Portal to the nearest city. Mages aren't one-trick wonders they bring the boom AND much more.
