You also have the option of using a different file format (Word, for example) and retailers or aggregators will convert your file into their ebook format. For example, you can upload an EPUB file to Amazon and it can be converted successfully to MOBI.

Travel guides can be designed using a flowable format, no matter how many images you are including, but if there are specific elements like information boxes, maps or images that need to be displayed linked to a specific text, then consider using a fixed format. The primary reason to choose a fixed format is for books with many images and text that need to be displayed in a specific layout, like a cookery book. The other ebook format is fixed, which means you design how the book displays and readers can’t change it, except to zoom in and out. The most popular ebook format is flowable, also known as reflowable, standard, or dynamic, and this is used for text-heavy books where the readers have control over how the content is displayed. So today we’re looking at the impact of text layouts on your readers and the pros and cons of choosing the optimal ebook file format for your content. Before you start formatting it’s important to grasp the difference between file formats, so you don’t waste time creating a book file you don’t need, or isn’t fit for purpose.

![]() He resumed his solo career in 1980 and has been touring as a solo artist since 1989. He wrote or co-wrote their US or UK number-one hits, such as " My Love", " Band on the Run", " Listen to What the Man Said", " Silly Love Songs", and " Mull of Kintyre". Under McCartney's leadership, Wings became one of the most successful bands of the 1970s. ![]() Although primarily a bassist with the Beatles, he played a number of other instruments, including keyboards, guitars, and drums, on various songs.Īfter the Beatles disbanded, he debuted as a solo artist with the 1970 album McCartney and went on to form the band Wings with his first wife, Linda, and Denny Laine. Many of his Beatles songs, including " And I Love Her", " Yesterday", " Eleanor Rigby", and " Blackbird", rank among the most covered songs in history. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, he gradually became the band's de facto leader, providing creative impetus for most of their music and film projects. Sometimes called "the cute Beatle", McCartney later immersed himself in the London avant-garde scene and played a key role in incorporating experimental aesthetics into the Beatles' studio productions. He began his career when he joined Lennon's skiffle group, the Quarrymen, in 1957, which evolved into the Beatles in 1960. īorn in Liverpool, McCartney taught himself piano, guitar, and songwriting as a teenager, having been influenced by his father, a jazz player, and rock and roll performers such as Little Richard and Buddy Holly. His songwriting partnership with Lennon is the most successful in modern music history. One of the most successful composers and performers of all time, McCartney is known for his melodic approach to bass-playing, versatile and wide tenor vocal range, and musical eclecticism, exploring genres ranging from pre–rock and roll pop to classical, ballads, and electronica. Sir James Paul McCartney CH MBE (born 18 June 1942) is an English singer, songwriter and musician who gained worldwide fame with the Beatles, for whom he played bass guitar and shared primary songwriting and lead vocal duties with John Lennon. When I saw a post this morning noting Wonder’s 70th birthday, I did a quick calculation and realized that his amazing string of early and mid-1970s work started when he was all of 21 years old.From the BBC programme Front Row, 26 December 2012 ETA: To be fair, per Wikipedia John Paul Jones has explicitly acknowledged the source of the song’s inspiration: “John Paul Jones has credited Stevie Wonder with the inspiration for the beat (“ Superstition“, 1972), which he played on a clavinet.” Thanks to a commenter for pointing this out.) (One of my favorite tributes is this wild nine-minute version of Trampled Under Foot, which is Led Zeppelin’s typically uncredited take on an African-American musician’s work. It was nothing like I’d ever heard before. (I have no idea why a bunch of 13-year-olds were being allowed to do this in the middle of the school day, except it was the 70s, man.)Īnyway I walked into the room and heard the clavinet riff that subsequently launched a thousand imitators. ![]() I have a very sharp memory of the first time I heard “Superstition.” It was during some sort of informal party at Clague Middle School, Ann Arbor, Michigan, early 1973. One of America’s greatest musicians turns 70 today. ![]() starting with stronger pieces and/or Bombs farther away from the Flag (although this is risky), so as to trick one's opponent into attacking the wrong side of the board.identifying patterns in the enemy's movement during game play that give clues as to the distribution of his or her forces.making strong pieces available for attack.placing one's pieces initially so as to protect the Flag, while possibly misleading the opponent as to where it is.Psychological aspects are very important too. Collecting the information, planning, and strategic thinking play an important role in Stratego. In this respect it resembles somewhat such chess variants as Kriegspiel or Dark chess. In contrast to chess, Stratego is a game with incomplete information. Some versions (primarily those released since 2000) make 10 (the Marshal) the highest rank, while others (versions prior to 2000, as well as the Nostalgia version released in 2002) have the Marshal piece ranked at 1. No piece can move diagonally, or back and forth between the same two spaces for more than three consecutive turns. ![]() In more recent versions of the game the Scout can move several squares, ending with attacking an enemy piece. In older versions of Stratego the Scout could attack only if it began its turn adjacent to an enemy piece. The Scout may move any number of spaces in a straight line (such as the rook in chess). The Bombs remain on the board, unless removed by a Miner.Īll movable pieces, with the exception of the Scout, may move only one step to any adjacent space vertically or horizontally. The Flag and Bombs are the only pieces that cannot attack another piece due to being unable to move. Wins/loses the game when captured, cannot moveĮach player has six Bombs and one Flag. Classic version įrom highest rank to lowest the pieces are:Ĭan fly in a straight line over occupied squaresĬan force a piece up to 2 squares away to revealĬan move 2 spaces in a straight line by revealing itselfĬan Hypnotize a piece to join you if it's a lower level and it's 1 or 2 squares awayĬan attack all adjacent and diagonal squaresĬan attack something up to three squares away without riskĬan defeat the Dragon, but is beaten by all including dragon if is attacked firstĭestroys any piece except Dwarf, cannot move The Spy is removed if attacked by any opposing piece if one Spy attacks the other, both are removed. Each player also has one Spy, which wins only if it attacks. The most numerous special piece is the Bomb (each player has six the Bombs cannot move) which only Miners can defuse and which immediately eliminates any other piece striking it. Pieces įor most pieces, rank alone determines the outcome, but there are special pieces. ![]() Such pre-play distinguishes the fundamental strategy of particular players, and influences the outcome of the game. Players arrange their 40 pieces in a 4×10 configuration at either end of the board. In the event of no movable pieces for a player, the opponent is the winner. The object is to capture the opponent's flag or make them surrender. They are shown as lakes on the battlefield and serve as choke points to make frontal assaults less direct. Two zones in the middle of the board, each 2×2, cannot be entered by either player's pieces at any time. Pieces may not move onto a square already occupied unless it attacks. If the engaging pieces are of equal rank, both are removed. If the weaker piece was the attacker that piece is removed from the board if the attacker is the stronger piece, it will remove the weaker piece and occupy its square. If a piece is moved onto a square occupied by an opposing piece, their identities are revealed the weaker piece (there are exceptions see below) is removed from the board. Ranks are printed on one side only and placed so that players cannot identify specific opponent's pieces. Pieces are colored on both sides, so players can easily distinguish between their own and their opponent's. Typically, one player uses red pieces, and the other uses blue pieces. ![]() Tiffany and Glen/Glenda steal away from Chucky to possess Jennifer Tilly and her magic children. The climax of the film is stunningly sensitive, as two imperfect parents diverge after spending the entire time trying not to let their own issues impact a child dealing with their gender. At its core, Seed of Chucky is a film about insecurity, from Tilly’s desire to be a star beyond Bound, to the inadequacy Tiffany and Chucky feel as parents, to the uncertainty of Glen/Glenda’s self-expression. When Tiffany looks at Tilly in total adoration, it strikes her that she would love to present that fully, to be accepted as a complete and worthy person. ![]() ![]() Yet her arc becomes the sublimation from the physical to the nylon of Tiffany’s chaotic maternity. The film’s B-plot offers a crass and corny Hollywood satire, with Tilly anchoring the scenes with the brash grace of a Divine or a Joan Blondell. The sin of procreative sex – a common comedic refrain of camp – becomes an incredible metaphor for camp seeping into unsuspecting mainstream. This culminates in a gross-out centrepiece where Tiffany inseminates Jennifer Tilly (now playing herself) with Chucky’s sperm using a turkey baster as John Waters looks on like a voyeuristic deity. Finding pleasure in body horror becomes a source of ridiculous catharsis. Those of us who aren’t cisgender are often made to feel less than human in our own bodies, as if our existence is a betrayal of nature, like a resurrection spell cast on a childhood toy. Chucky believes this to be innate and a source of pride, though Tiffany is less sure.īorne as a reclamation of the idea that queer people are designated to the role of the sinners, the Chucky films are comforting and restorative visions of perverted representation. Though the series by this point has blissfully foregone any moral qualms about murder, the characters feel no luxury, especially when confronted by the child’s stark horror at their parents’ conduct. Mancini offers the deepest empathy to the struggles of instructing family how to perceive one’s queerness. “Glenda” is a shrill maniac with a heavy face of makeup, while “Glen” is more of a Tiny Tim. Like Wood’s film, Mancini pays no mind to psychological accuracy, opting instead for an absurd abstraction of gender expression. The child identifies as a girl to their mother and a boy to their father, a bit thoughtfully attributed to their self-projections and indiscernible genitalia.Ĭhucky and Tiffany name their child Glen and Glenda, respectively, a nod to Ed Wood’s eponymous 1953 trans drama. Two intertwined, disarmingly earnest threads emerge: the child is forced to reckon with their gender, and the parents struggle to raise a child with good values. The story follows a child doll who escapes to Los Angeles to find their parents, Chucky (voiced as always by Brad Douriff) and Tiffany (the marvellous Jennifer Tilly), after noticing that they share the same manufacturing mark. This garishly uncool film is drenched in the cesspool aesthetic of low-budget 2000s horror – but it’s also an ode to the loving embrace of camp. The humour is profane and callous and broad, with a flurry of gleefully violent gags. Though the series began as, and would return to, a strictly horror formula, Seed of Chucky plays almost exclusively as a comedy. The film opens with a vivid CGI recreation of conception. What better time, then, to revisit the first of Mancini’s three directorial efforts, 2004’s Seed of Chucky. Now, three decades after the release of the original, a reboot is upon us – the first Child’s Play to have no involvement from longtime series writer Don Mancini. An eternal edgelord bastard of ’80s B-grade horror, Chucky was fixed in my imagination long before I ever saw one of the Child’s Play films, seared into my subconscious from seeing the haunting posters and VHS covers at my local Blockbuster.

Already as a young girl, she could reflect on the distinguished line of her mother's family, who had rid Egypt of a humiliating and century-long foreign domination by the Hyksos. The strong-willed daughter of a great warrior king, Hatshepsut no doubt felt that her credentials to rule her country were far stronger than those of the son of her husband's concubine. The monuments emphasize her public image and divine status, however, and tell us little about her as a human being. Hatshepsut was one of these five.Īmong the greatest female figures known from the ancient world, Hatshepsut has left us many monuments, making her one of the best-documented personalities from ancient Egypt's 3,000-year history. During its long history, many of Egypt's queens acted as regent for minors, but only five women are known to have assumed the kingship. Hatshepsut should have been in her 20s, at least, by this time. This left Hatshepsut to rule the country, because her husband's designated heir was too young to assume the kingship. However, a concubine had borne Thutmose II a son, and this youth, also named Thutmose (III), was designated as his father's heir before Thutmose II died about 1490 bce after a reign of at least four and possibly as many as twelve years. Only one child, a daughter, is known to have been born to Hatshepsut and Thutmose II. His eldest daughter Hatshepsut was thus forced to marry her half-brother Thutmose II brother-sister marriages were frequent among Egyptian royalty as a means of keeping the throne within the ruling family. Thutmose I had two sons and two daughters with Queen Ahmose, but the sons predeceased him, which led Thutmose to promote his son by a secondary wife as his heir, because the kingship of Egypt was, by tradition and religious myth, a male prerogative. Her father-a military leader of common ancestry married to a royal princess, Ahmose -succeeded his heirless brother-in-law Amenhotep I on the throne. Hatshepsut, whose throne name was Ma-Ka-Re, was born around 1515 bce probably in the great palace, founded by her father Thutmose I, at Egypt's capital city of Memphis, located at the apex of the Nile Delta, southwest of modern Cairo. Born around 1515 bce died around 1468 bce eldest daughter and only surviving child of Thutmose I and Queen Ahmose married half-brother Thutmose II children: daughter Neferure possibly a second daughter (stepson) Thutmose III. ![]() Name variations: Hatasu Hatchepsout Hatchepsut Hatshepset Hatshepsout Hashepsowe throne name was Ma-Ka-Re or Makare. Female pharaoh of Egypt's 18th Dynasty who served as regent for a designated heir, later ousted him from power, then reigned for 20 more years in an era that saw significant political, cultural and economic achievements. Genealogy can be a lifelong pursuit when handed down among families. Another variation to be on the lookout are names tied to a specific religion or ethnicity-especially those that rely on a different alphabet (such as Hebrew, Chinese, or Russian) or pronunciation (such as Gaelic). While Peggy is a common name, not everyone knows that it's a diminutive of Margaret. Onomastics is the study of names and you might have to do a little research in this area. For instance, check nicknames, especially when hunting for children named after a parent: James may lead you to Jim, Robert to Bob, and so forth. ![]() Variations can help you find what you're looking for. When searching a genealogy database indexed by name, don't be afraid to try multiple spellings, and don't fill in every search parameter box. Even if you think you know the exact address, you might be faced with sifting through pages and pages filled with hard-to-decipher handwriting to find their names. To find actual records through the National Archives site, you need to know where your ancestors lived at the time the census was taken. Otherwise, you'll have to find the exact page your ancestors appear on, and since the census takers went street by street collecting data, the information is not alphabetical order. Sites such as (by subscription) and (free after registration) have digitized records, searchable by name, which can be a real time-saver. Such documents are available from the National Archives, and the institution advises people to start with the most recent census and work backward. For instance, in 2012, the 1940 census became public record. Census records become available to the public after 72 years. The federal income tax was introduced not long after the Civil War, and those records may also contain valuable information to help you flesh out your family history.įinding Census Data to Fill Out the Chart Court filings that can be helpful in a genealogy search include adoption, guardianship, and probate records. While you're there, search land records (deeds), court cases, and tax rolls. If you know the location of an ancestor's birth, marriage, or death, begin with those counties to request basic records. ![]() In a family tree, the ancestors branch out from the bottom to the top of the page in a fan chart, they're displayed in a fan shape, while a pedigree chart looks like half of a sports bracket and displays the pertinent information reading from left to right. The difference between them is in how that information is displayed. All of them show the same basic types of information, such as birth, death, and marriage years for ancestors going back several generations. ![]() A number of websites offer free ancestry charts and forms to view, download, save, and print, including family tree-style documents, fan charts, and pedigree forms. ![]() Place both hands in front of your body, flex through the left foot and let the right hip sink into the stretch. Reach the left hand overhead with the palm facing down. Place your right hand on the inside of the right foot and the left foot flat on the floor with toes facing the side of your mat.

Give yourself 5 minutes, if not 10 to really soak it all up. Savasana is our time for total relaxation and integration and no practice would be complete without it. Have you heard anyone say a bad word about savasana? Nope, I didn’t think so. So breathe into it, stay present with the sensations, and enjoy slowing down. This is the more lunar part of the practice and is just as important as the active standing postures. Try to include a seated forward fold, a bridge pose and a twist to release the spine. Supine and seated postures cool the body and prepare you for your final relaxation. Just as you took time to warm up, you need time to slow things back down, instead of screeching to a holt. Think lunges, warrior II, and maybe some balancing postures.

This can be done in a variety of ways, such as determining new challenges your products can address, making price adjustments, strengthening distribution channels, or even buying out competition. Meanwhile, when defined as a process, market penetration is the strategy for expanding your brand’s market share within its existing target market and taking a portion of the market from your competitors. It allows you to see changes in the extent to which you’ve captured your target market, which tells you if your campaign succeeded. The best period to calculate this rate is after running a marketing or sales campaign. It informs your plans for improving product visibility, brand recognition, and brand perception. Monitoring market penetration rates allows you to determine how well your business is growing. For business products, the average rate ranges from 10% to 40%. For example, the average rate of market penetration for consumer products sits between 2% and 6%. The average market penetration rate varies from one industry to another.
