The storm was, however, now over and the umbrella was no longer needed. Now, fully clothed and armed with an umbrella that Jones also lent her, Fenster opens the door to brave the elements and go home. Finally realizing that she was telling the truth, Jones lent Fenster some of his niece’s clothes. After listening to her seemingly “far-fetched” story, he mentioned that he remembered hearing about an actual incident where someone’s clothes were literally torn from their body as a direct result of being struck by lightning. Moreover, she also told Jones that her clothes were blown off by the electrostatic charge embedded within the bolt that hit her. Fenster emphatically explained to Jones, in hopes that he would sympathize with her, that she was “hurrying along, trying to beat out this sudden storm,” when she was apparently struck by lightning. When firmly asked by Jones to leave, so as not give the wrong immoral impression to his niece who was asleep upstairs in her bedroom, Fenster refused to go back out into the storm half-naked. Shortly after Jones handed her his suit coat so that she could cover her private parts, he temporarily permitted her to come into the house. Feeling somewhat sorry for her, though, he waved her over to go to the front door. Shocked and embarrassed by her nakedness, he quickly closed the window on her. She was standing naked just outside one of the windows of his home during a thunderstorm that Jones (unintentionally) just so happened to conjure up when he mentioned Zotz. Professor Fenster’s first appearance occurs moments after Jones first mentioned the name of Zotz in one of the early scenes of the movie. Jones, inferring that they were either already married, or that they were going to get married soon. Near the end of the movie, Jones refers to Fenster as Mrs. A new colleague and possible romantic interest, Professor Fenster, is startled by Jones' behavior, particularly at a party thrown by Updike's wife that turns into chaos. In the meantime, Jones and rival professor Kellgore are both in line for a promotion to take over from retiring Dean Updike as head of this California university's language department. (This is a metaphor for the age of nuclear weapons, as the novel was written two years after atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki). ![]() Both government and Communist agents immediately develop an interest in the amulet's possible military use. Whoever has the amulet in their possession can 1) cause great pain by pointing at another living creature, 2) cause time to go into slow motion by saying the word "Zotz!", or 3) cause instant death by simultaneously pointing and saying "Zotz!". A brilliant but peculiar professor of Ancient Eastern languages, Jonathan Jones, finds that an amulet sent to his niece Cynthia by a boyfriend from an archeological dig has magical powers.

![]() So we’d better assume it’s going to happen reasonably quickly, #for safety. In other words, the experiments that would tell us how fast malachite dissolves in various types of water just don’t exist because nobody’s ever needed to know before. 42) because end equilibrium points are all you need to run a city water system safely. One of the best sources on how malachite dissolves & precipitates in water– an EPA document on how to avoid too much Cu++ in municipal drinking water systems– helpfully says “The kinetic constraints on the formation of these solids in water systems are largely unexplored” (p. Unfortunately it looks like nobody really knows.An encounter with a stalactite would have to last years for enough Cu++ to leach out to cause problems. Anyway the key question now is “ how fast does the human vagina dissolve malachite?” Are we talking geological timescale, a Nazis-in-Indiana-Jones situation, or something in between? If the reaction kinetics of dissolution are very slow, then there’s nothing to worry about.Gonna to take a quick moment to point out that sex toys that dissolve when you use them are maybe not the best investment.I have no deeper explanation for why human females can dissolve rocks with our genitals.In other words, the human vagina dissolves malachite.As luck would have it, acidity, salinity, and warmth all make malachite dissolve faster. It’s also warmer than your average underground cave at 37☌ (or 98.5☏ in American meat units). A healthy human vagina has a pH of 3.8-4.5 and a salinity of about 0.9%. ![]() Malachite dissolves somewhat slowly in water– but vaginal secretions aren’t just any water.But it kills bacteria when it dissolves and releases Cu++. So bottom line, yes malachite is technically nontoxic to humans. ![]() It takes such a large dose to harm larger organisms that copper sprays are used a lot in organic agriculture (like Bordeaux mixture). Cu++ is GREAT at killing bacteria and fungi– so good at it that sprays with Cu++ get used a lot as a spray in agriculture to stop plant disease.
![]() Historic tribes encountered by Europeans and settlers from the United States included the Crow in the south-central area, the Cheyenne in the southeast, the Blackfeet, Assiniboine, and Gros Ventres in the central and north-central area, and the Kootenai and Salish in the west. Various indigenous peoples have lived in the territory of the present-day state of Montana for thousands of years. Other names such as Shoshone were suggested, but the Committee on Territories decided that they had discretion to choose the name, so the original name of Montana was adopted. Cox complained that the name was a misnomer given that most of the territory was not mountainous and thought a Native American name would be more appropriate than a Spanish one. Samuel Cox, also of Ohio, objected to the name. When Ashley presented a bill to establish a temporary government in 1864 for a new territory to be carved out of Idaho, he again chose Montana Territory. Harding (Oregon), who complained that Montana had "no meaning". The name was changed by representatives Henry Wilson (Massachusetts) and Benjamin F. The name Montana was added in 1863 to a bill by the United States House Committee on Territories (chaired at the time by James Ashley of Ohio) for the territory that would become Idaho Territory. Montaña del Norte was the name given by early Spanish explorers to the entire mountainous region of the west. The name Montana comes from the Spanish word montaña, which in turn comes from the Latin word montanea, meaning "mountain" or more broadly "mountainous country". Montana's fastest-growing sector is tourism nearly 13 million annual tourists visit Glacier National Park, Yellowstone National Park, Beartooth Highway, Flathead Lake, Big Sky Resort, and other attractions. The health care, service, and government sectors are also significant to the state's economy. Other significant economic resources include oil, gas, coal, mining, and lumber. The economy is primarily based on agriculture, including ranching and cereal grain farming. Montana has no official nickname but several unofficial ones, most notably "Big Sky Country", "The Treasure State", "Land of the Shining Mountains", and " The Last Best Place". In all, 77 named ranges are part of the Rocky Mountains. The western half of Montana contains numerous mountain ranges, while the eastern half is characterized by western prairie terrain and badlands, with smaller mountain ranges found throughout the state. It is the fourth-largest state by area, the eighth-least populous state, and the third-least densely populated state. It is bordered by Idaho to the west North Dakota and South Dakota to the east Wyoming to the south and by the Canadian provinces of Alberta, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan to the north.

It does not bring anything new to the world of media players, but it managed to build up a name throughout the years, making it worth at least a try. Apple QuickTime 7.7.9 Download TechSpot Downloads Players Apple QuickTime 7.7.9 Multimedia player and authoring system from Apple. If you don’t use it for this purpose, you may be obliged to use it for a different reason, such as third-party software depending on it to be able to run. In conclusion, QuickTime is your usual media player. In other words, software is being built on top of QuickTime, using its abilities for handling media content. The second concept behind it (aside from being a media player) is that it acts as a multimedia architecture for third-party applications. But the idea of using it as your main video player when there are others significantly more powerful than it may not be a concept that works for all users. ![]() You have probably already found some websites by now that required QuickTime to play videos. A guideline for other media playersīut QuickTime is linked with many web browsers. It offers you basic playback controls (play / pause / resume) that most players feature. It’s not the most complex media player in its category, that’s for sure. ![]() The interface looks very professional, and it's easy to understand by both beginners and advanced users. First off, it’s a media player it can be used for high-quality playback of MOV, MPEG, MP3, H.264, 3GPP, AAC, JPEG, BMP, PNG, to name the most important ones. QuickTime plays two major roles in the multimedia business. ![]() On MAC OS X, the product is included as a default feature, while on Windows platform it’s available as a standalone package, as well as integrated with iTunes. If you are a QuickTime 6 Pro user, see this article: before proceeding with this installation.QuickTime is a full-featured media player and application framework that features support for all kinds of media types: audio, video, images and virtual reality movies. Installing QuickTime 7 or later will disable the QuickTime Pro functionality in prior versions of QuickTime, such as QuickTime 6. If installed on other versions of Windows, it may not offer full functionality. QuickTime 7 is for use with Windows Vista or Windows 7. If you still need this legacy plug-in, you can add it back using the custom setup option in the installer. The QuickTime web browser plug-in is no longer installed by default and is removed if you have a previous version of QuickTime on your PC. All current Windows web browsers support video without the need for browser plug-ins. New versions of Windows since 2009 have included support for the key media formats, such as H.264 and AAC, that QuickTime 7 enabled. For information on the security content of this update, please visit this website. Important: QuickTime 7 for Windows is no longer supported by Apple. New Windows since the year 2009 has newly supported the key media formats. QuickTime 7.7.9 contains security updates and is recommended for all QuickTime 7 users on Windows.

We watch her painstakingly try to figure out her situation but, it doesn’t take long for her to figure out the significance of the countdown and how she came to be trapped in these tubes. On her arm is strapped a bracelet with a countdown. Upon awakening, Lisa wakes up in a tube dressed in a wetsuit. Things escalate and then we cut to black. However, at the last moment, she relents before accepting a car ride from an unknown man ( Peter Franzén). In MEANDER, we meet Lisa (Gaia Weiss) laying in the middle of the road, seemingly hoping to have someone run over her. The film stars Gaia Weiss (“ La Révolution“) and Peter Franzén ( Heart of a Lion). MEANDER is directed and written by Mathieu Turi. We are kept on our toes and feel the tension she does as she must survive and the film itself doesn’t miss a beat to make sure our hearts are racing with hers until it reaches its conclusion. In Mathieu Turi’s MEANDER, we are taken through Lisa’s journey as she awakens to find herself trapped in a series of tubes. However, we can’t meander or else we will be filled with regret over what we’ve lost. A thing that we sometimes wander aimlessly through, whether it’s due to not knowing what we want, losing something that kept us grounded, or trying to reconnect with why we should continue to be here. There are no consequences to his actions, "even after admitting this." The movie ends as Bateman says: "there is no catharsis.Courtesy of Gravitas VenturesLife is a precious thing. By the end, the question of whether Bateman's murders really happened is irrelevant-no one would have noticed either way. Either he's done nothing, or his crimes have been of so little interest to his peers that they haven't caused a single ripple. His apartment full of corpses has been cleaned up. (The ATM that says FEED ME A STRAY CAT and the shootout with police that follows, for example.) An air of "did that really happen?" hangs over the entire story, until the only thing that's truly clear is that Bateman is utterly insane.įollowing a night of murder, a police manhunt, and a confession to his lawyer, Bateman attends a social occasion to find that nothing's changed. His body count is called into question as the story progresses and Bateman frequently experiences things that aren't real. As he told Vulture, "It allows people to make up their own mind of what it means."Įveryone around Bateman is as horrible as he is, save for the murderous tendencies-and Bateman may not even be a real murderer. As for the ambiguity of that last shot? Totally intentional. As he's said in multiple interviews, he was originally inspired by a nightmare in which he knew he was being followed, knew he couldn't get away, and knew the people with him in the nightmare weren't able to help him. Mitchell has only hinted at his personal point of view on the scene depicting the spirit's possible "death," but he's made it clear that he never set out to make a movie with a literal meaning, or one whose antagonist's motives were ever explained. Like plenty of thought-provoking cinema, much of It Follows is open to interpretation. In the film's final shot, the duo walk down a street while someone (or some thing?) follows behind. After the climactic conflict, Jay and her friend Paul (Keir Gilchrist) have sex.and later, Paul's seen driving past a group of prostitutes. One thing leads to another, and ultimately, she and her friends try killing it, with generally unpleasant (not to mention ambiguous) results. Jay's told the only way she can escape the evil spirit (which haunts her in some truly terrifying ways) is by sleeping with someone else to pass it on. But Mitchell uses it as the setup for a pretty devilish little film. If that sounds ridiculous, well, it kinda is on its face. ![]() The Nectar’s foams offer nice pressure relief. One of our best innerspring mattresses might do the trick. In general, I’d steer heavier people (above 250 lbs) towards a firmer mattress that offers coil support. I’d advise these folks to check out our best mattresses for stomach sleepers to find a better fit.īody Weight - This bed will likely feel firmer the lighter you are and softer the heavier you are. In my opinion, neither the Casper or the Nectar is supportive enough for most strict stomach sleepers. Stomach - The Nectar felt too soft on my stomach, I could feel my hips sinking into the bed and creating a bend in my back. I think this bed is a great fit for side sleepers. Side - When lying on my side, I sunk into the Nectar’s top foams and felt some great pressure relief. I could feel its foams contouring to my lower back and providing some nice pressure relief. Nectarīack - The Nectar felt really comfortable on my back. To give you an even better idea of what these beds feel like, I tested them in all of the main sleeping positions. Comparing What it’s Like to Sleep on the Nectar and the Casper ![]() Some strict side sleepers, however, may find that the bed doesn’t provide the deep pressure relief they need at the shoulders and hips. And back sleepers should like the balance of pressure relief and support the Casper offers. Combo sleepers should find it easy to move around and change positions on this bed. ![]() I’d recommend this feel to combination sleepers and back sleepers. The Casper’s balanced feel might appeal to combination sleepers. You should feel much more “on top of” than “stuck in” this bed. The Casper has more of a “balanced” feel than the Nectar. So I’d call the Casper a medium-firm to firm mattress. However, unlike the Nectar, this bed does not soften up as you lie on it. It initially felt softer to me when pushing into its foam layers, but when I laid on the bed it felt firmer and lifted me up. I gave the Casper a 7 out of 10 on the firmness scale. In general, I’d recommend the Nectar to any memory foam lovers looking for a cushioning feel. These folks typically prefer a firmer structure that helps them achieve a neutral spinal alignment. While this could be great for side or back sleepers who struggle with joint pain, it’s not likely to work for strict stomach sleepers. Once you sink into your Nectar it should have a plush, pressure-relieving feel. I really like the Nectar for back and side sleepers. Over time, its foams will start to conform to your body and give this bed more of a medium-soft feel. Like most traditional memory foam mattresses, the Nectar gets softer the longer you lie on it. I put it right between medium-soft and medium-firm. This marks it as just below the industry standard of 6.5 for medium firmness. I gave the Nectar’s initial feel a 6 out of 10 firmness scale (where 1 is super soft and 10 is ultra-firm). Therefore, my read of these beds could very well differ from your own! For reference, I’m 5’10”, weigh around 190 lbs, and prefer to sleep on my stomach. To do this, I’m going to focus on factors like firmness, pressure relief, bounce, and sinkage.īut before we get into that, a small note to say that all of these feel factors are inherently subjective and could change depending on one’s body size, shape, and weight. In this section, I’m going to do my best to give you a sense of how these beds feel. Nectar and Casper Mattress Feel Comparison I think the Casper feels a little bit firmer when sleeping on it than the Nectar.This is ideal for sleepers who struggle with back pain. The Casper offers zoned support, which means it’s firmer at the hips and softer at the shoulders.The Nectar mattress uses more memory foam than the Casper mattress, so it’s ideal for sleepers looking for a slow-moving, soft foam bed that offers plenty of sinkage.I’d recommend these folks check out one of our best mattresses for heavy people instead. Neither bed will offer quite enough support for heavy sleepers (over 250 lbs).These beds fall into a similar price range, and both are fairly affordable.They both offer great pressure relief in the shoulder area. Both mattresses are great options for anyone looking for a mattress for shoulder pain.While these beds use foam in different ways, both are going to feel much gentler than a hybrid mattress or innerspring mattress. The Nectar and Casper are both foam bed-in-a-box mattresses.Next, I want to describe the most important similarities and differences between these two beds.
