![]() Strategy: Make sure your party has high bleed/blight resistances. There is also a guarenteed chance that your party will be suprised at the beginning of the fight, so expect your party's positions to shuffle. It is highly recommended that you are not wearing any trinkets that require a light level above 75 to be effective. Warning: When/if you decide to spawn The Shambler, he'll teleport you to a hidden area and the light level is reduced to zero and cannot be increased. Most people decide to fight The Shambler for a chance to get ancestral trinkets (Ancestor's Map, Ancestor's Bottle, Ancestor's Candle, Ancestor's Tentacle Idol, Ancestor's Scroll). ![]() Thankfully, the only way to fight him is to use a torch at The Shambler's Alter (a curio that randomly spawns in any dungeon). The Shambler is harder than most bosses you'll encounter. Stun the Collected Man-at-Arms to remove the guard buff if he's guarding The Collector. Ignore the Collected Vestal (you should be able to outdamage her heals), make it a priority to kill Collected Highwayman (almost all of the damage comes from this spawn) and try to keep The Collector in the third position. Strategy: Assuming you've followed the dungeon guidelines above, a decently prepared team shouldn't have too much of an issue with The Collector. He drops always Puzzling Trapezohedron (worth 2,500 gold) and has a small chance to drop a very rare trinket (Barristan's Head, Dismas' Head, and/or Julia's Head all of them are pretty good) these trinkets can also be found in secret rooms so fighting The Collector isn't necessary. The Collector has a random chance of spawning when your inventory is more than 60% full. Special trinket/Puzzling Trapezohedron x3 The rewards of each dungeon will pay for the provisions used to complete the mission (and extra provisions will be sold upon completion), but you should expect to make money off of what you find in the dungeon and not based on the reward of the mission. Almost all of the numbers are excessive, but it's better to be over-prepared than under-prepared. The following table is a quick and dirty list of provisions to bring into a dungeon. Crests are needed to upgrade virtually everything, but have the highest stack and are quite common.Busts are useful for upgrading the sanitarium, but pretty much worthless after that.Portraits are the second most useful heirloom until you've upgraded the guild.Deeds are the most useful heirloom until you've finished upgrading the the carriage and blacksmith.Which mission offers the most useful heirlooms?.Trinkets for light or dark runs (Sun/Moon Ring, Solar/Dark Cloak).Most very rare and rare class specific trinkets are worth picking up.Tier 1 trinkets are almost always useful (Legendary Bracer, Tough Ring, and Focus Ring).Which mission offers the most useful trinket right now?.Level 5 heroes (fully upgraded weapons, armor, and skills) can complete any champion missions (lvl 5).Level 4 heroes should complete long, intermediate missions (lvl 3).Level 3 heroes should complete short/medium, intermediate missions (lvl 3). ![]() Level 2 heroes should complete long, apprentice missions (lvl 1).Level 1 heroes should complete medium, apprentice missions (lvl 1). ![]() Level 0 heroes should complete short, apprentice missions (lvl 1).Can your team complete the mission?

Fortunately the article now includes the Thai spelling and pronunciation. Mark Your comments are mistaken in every possible way. If I say, "Yesterday I saw a kathoey", that is a perfectly good English sentence I haven't started speaking Thai halfway through. TheMadBaron 01:33, 16 November 2005 (UTC) Reply If kathoey were not an English word, we wouldn't have an article on it in the English wikipedia. Strange transliterations like "oey" arise as a way to consistently convey vowel sounds which simply can't be spelled in our alphabet. The initial consonant ก is certainly closer to g than k, but "oo-ay" is one too many syllables to make the final vowel sound, and neither of them is the right vowel sound. The pronunciation "ka-toy" is simply a common mispronunciation of กะเทย, which does not sound like "ga- too-ay". Kathoey is not an English word (try looking it up in an English dictionary). I think the correct pronunciation would be a useful addition if it could be precisely and concisely conveyed - but I don't think it can. Mark 21:24, 15 November 2005 (UTC) Reply I respectfully disagree. The Thai word is (roughly) "ga- too-ay", but the pronunciation of That words doesn't really belong in the English wikipedia. TheMadBaron 09:23, 15 November 2005 (UTC) Reply Could you try to describe it somehow? AxelBoldt 17:35, 15 November 2005 (UTC) Reply I don't think that most westerners do mispronounce it- it's just that the English word is not pronounced the same as the Thai word from which it derives (nor is "Venice" pronounced "Venezia"). The final vowel doesn't exist in spoken English, and most westerners mispronounce it.

High-energy neutrons can also produce tritium from lithium-7 in an endothermic (net heat consuming) reaction, consuming 2.466 MeV. For applications in proposed fusion energy reactors, such as ITER, pebbles consisting of lithium bearing ceramics including Li 2TiO 3 and Li 4SiO 4, are being developed for tritium breeding within a helium-cooled pebble bed, also known as a breeder blanket. In comparison, the fusion of deuterium with tritium releases about 17.6 MeV of energy. This is an exothermic reaction, yielding 4.8 MeV. The production of tritium from lithium-6 in such breeder ceramics is possible with neutrons of any energy, though the cross section is higher when the incident neutrons have lower energy, reaching more than 900 barns for thermal neutrons. The release and diffusion of tritium and helium produced by the fission of lithium can take place within ceramics referred to as breeder ceramics. Tritium is most often produced in nuclear reactors by neutron activation of lithium-6. The low energy of tritium's radiation makes it difficult to detect tritium-labeled compounds except by using liquid scintillation counting. The unusually low energy released in the tritium beta decay makes the decay (along with that of rhenium-187) appropriate for absolute neutrino mass measurements in the laboratory. Because of their low energy compared to other beta particles, the amount of bremsstrahlung generated is also lower. Beta particles from tritium can penetrate only about 6.0 millimetres (0.24 in) of air, and they are incapable of passing through the dead outermost layer of human skin. The electron's kinetic energy varies, with an average of 5.7 keV, while the remaining energy is carried off by the nearly undetectable electron antineutrino. It decays into helium-3 by beta-minus decay as per this nuclear equation:Īnd it releases 18.6 keV of energy in the process. ![]() This implies that, per year, approximately 5.5% of a given sample of tritium will decay. Decay įor the half life of tritium, the National Institute of Standards and Technology lists 4,500 ± 8 days ( 12.32 ± 0.02 years). Willard Libby recognized in 1954 that tritium could be used for radiometric dating of water and wine. Their experiment could not isolate tritium, which was first accomplished in 1939 by Luis Alvarez and Robert Cornog, who also realized tritium's radioactivity. Deuterium is another isotope of hydrogen, which occurs naturally with an abundance of 0.015%. Tritium was first detected in 1934 by Ernest Rutherford, Mark Oliphant and Paul Harteck after bombarding deuterium with deuterons (a proton and neutron, comprising a deuterium nucleus). Tritium is also used as a nuclear fusion fuel, along with more abundant deuterium, in tokamak reactors and in hydrogen bombs. It is used in a medical and scientific setting as a radioactive tracer. Tritium is used as the energy source in radioluminescent lights for watches, gun sights, numerous instruments and tools, and even novelty items such as self-illuminating key chains. It can be produced artificially by irradiation of lithium metal or lithium-bearing ceramic pebbles in a nuclear reactor and is a low-abundance byproduct in normal operations of nuclear reactors. The atmosphere has only trace amounts, formed by the interaction of its gases with cosmic rays. Naturally occurring tritium is extremely rare on Earth. The nucleus of tritium (t, sometimes called a triton) contains one proton and two neutrons, whereas the nucleus of the common isotope hydrogen-1 ( protium) contains one proton and zero neutrons, and that of hydrogen-2 ( deuterium) contains one proton and one neutron. Tritium (from Ancient Greek τρίτος (trítos) 'third') or hydrogen-3 (symbol T or 3H) is a rare and radioactive isotope of hydrogen with a half-life of ~12.3 years. ![]() ![]() ![]() This Fleece Pullover is Fair Trade Certified™ sewn, meaning the people who made it earned a premium for their labour.

What’s it like taking over for such an iconic founder and leader? And how are you able to put your own stamp on how the company is run? There are just so many opportunities.” Jassy recently spoke to TIME about what drives him–and Amazon–to keep reaching. “Think about our low Earth orbital satellite Kuiper, providing connectivity to the hundreds of millions of people that have no connectivity and can’t participate in the internet … or what we’re doing with Zoox with autonomous driving ride-hailing. “There are businesses that we just haven’t started yet that have, I think, a real opportunity to change what’s possible,” he tells TIME. Now, as Jassy considers expansion into new arenas, the possibilities seem to animate him. With Jassy as its leader until last summer, AWS grew into the company’s most profitable business. In 2003, the pair brainstormed the creation of a cloud computing unit that became AWS. But he and Bezos shared a competitive drive to do more. A former honors student with dreams of becoming a professional athlete, he was fresh out of business school and Amazon was still just a scrappy online bookseller at the time. These are the problems on the docket for one of the world’s largest retailers-a company that Jassy joined when it was anything but a behemoth. The legal and regulatory troubles add to longstanding complaints of poor pay, mistreatment, and even surveillance at Amazon warehouses, issues that are coinciding with unionization efforts across the U.S. ![]() The following day, Amazon won dismissal of an antitrust lawsuit brought by the District of Columbia, which alleged the company engages in anticompetitive behavior and hurts consumers by blocking sellers on its site from offering better prices elsewhere. On March 17, Amazon finalized its $8.45 billion acquisition of MGM studios, but the merger is still under review by regulators in Washington, where lawmakers continue to express concerns about Amazon’s size and power in a number of sectors. Over a 24-hour period in mid-March, the company received a double dose of good news that also pointed to profound challenges ahead. “Whether we’re talking about serving consumers or sellers or brand advertisers or developers or enterprises or governments, we have a really strong connective tissue in being Earth’s most customer-centric company,” he said in a virtual fireside chat with employees last July. ![]() ![]() ![]() Before leaving, he comes to say goodbye to her and because he was sneaking into her house, he sets off the burglar alarms. We never really find out what happens in Eurojam because that’s not really the point of the film, is it? The point is to get him to Prague so that he and the much-married Heer can have an affair, which they do. A record company signs him and takes him to Prague for a mysterious event called “Eurojam”. ![]() After living in a mosque for two months, he comes to the canteen manager and starts living with him. By this time, he’s figured out that he is in love with Heer however his immediate problem isn’t heartbreak but homelessness. There’s some drama when the business loses money and Janardan is kicked out of the house. Janardan comes home and gets into the family business (something to do with trucks). She has a list of things she wants to do before she gets married in two months. After the usual antagonism, the two become friends. The manager of the canteen he frequents tells him that to be a true artist, one must experience pain and heartbreak. Janardan is a college kid who wants to be the Indian Jim Morrison but he isn’t getting anywhere. It’s a tough job, not helped by the fact that aside from the task of livening up a bad script, he also has to convince us that MC Hammer’s dhoti pants and weird jackets can be a rock star’s costume. It essentially becomes a series of bucket lists punctuated by songs that Ranbir Kapoor, who plays Jordan/Janardan, tries to salvage. Instead, thanks to some spectacularly bad acting by Heer (played by debutante Nargis Fakhri) and a script that’s so half-baked that it’s like raw blood pudding, “Rockstar” begins engagingly before chucking all notions of logic, sense and causality out of the window. The most disappointing thing about “Rockstar” is that it could have been a decent film. Now, if you’re going to go around having irresponsible conversations like that under a bed sheet, while snuggling fully clothed with your loved one, you’re obviously going to get pregnant. Since this is a Bollywood film, it wasn’t a carnal moment that the audience was made privy to but a conversation, which went something like this. Possibly to tug at our heartstrings, director Imtiaz Ali shows us the moment when Heer got pregnant. You see, Heer was married to someone else when she had an affair with the ‘rockstar’, a.k.a Jordan, whose real name is Janardan. ![]() She also got pregnant and landed up with some terminal bone marrow disease, which is the Bollywood equivalent of being smote by lightning. If there was a screengrab for the reminiscing heroine, then I could have captioned it, “I had an affair with a rockstar and all I got was a lousy t-shirt.”Īctually, that’s not entirely true. At this point, she goes up to a room and starts rubbing her face in a dirty red T-shirt, which had in the past been worn by the love of her life, who is the rock star of the film’s title, when he was, apparently, sniffing her earlobe. ![]() Somewhere near the end of Imtiaz Ali’s “Rockstar” (not to be confused with “Rock Star” starring Mark Wahlberg), Heer the heroine starts feeling faint and gets that I’m-going-to-die-soon look that veteran Bollywood watchers will recognise in a jiffy. Rabin's score, the Steel Dragon's original work and plenty of 80's-style Metal hits makes this soundtrack a must-have! Let's all hope that films like ROCK STAR not only give a credibility to a style of music that helped define a generation but also spark a very-needed revival.Among the many things that don't make sense are the cap and the retro drawing style. Naturally, ROCK STAR is filled with great music. More interaction with these life-long Rock musicians would have amplified and solidified Izzy's new surroundings. The only real complaint with the story is that the supporting cast, namely the other members of the band, were not fleshed out, or even introduced, properly. His likable character quickly wins over the heart of the viewer, who wants to see him succeed and gets the chance to give him the Metal "goat horn" hand-sign several times over. Wahlberg's "Izzy" acts as the film's host plays the everyman who gets to see his wish come true. Stephen Herek, no stranger to musically-themed movies, takes the audience through the wonders of the breakneck lifestyle of an extinct species, the Hair-Metal Rock God. Mark Wahlberg poured on his likable boy-ish charm and performed with believable admirably, something he has been known to do since the release of BOOGIE NIGHTS. ROCK STAR is a well-told Hollywood-style rendition of the tale based on fact actually on how Ripper became Rob Halford's replacement for Judas Priest. ![]() |
