Serif font projections are not limited to straight lines either fonts such as Garamond or Tiffany can have varying thicknesses and curves within the serif. A serif font can have a simple line such as found on Bodoni, or a thicker line (called a slab serif) as found on Rockwell. What is a serif font?Ī serif font contains projecting features typically at the end of the stroke on a letter or symbol, including numerals. The term “serif” is derived from the Dutch word schreef meaning “line”. This ensures their designs are not only visually interesting, they’re effective at communicating your brand’s message. While choosing fonts might not sound like such a big deal, the fact is graphic designers are trained to strike a complementary balance when pairing serif and sans serif fonts. Whether you choose a font that is thick and bold, or one that is lighter and thinner, or simple or ornate, you will inevitably select either a serif or a sans-serif font. Each and every font has its own personality and a preferred use. When creating documents, your computer may have dozens, hundreds or even thousands of fonts to choose from. In this brief article, I will explain the differences between serif and sans-serif fonts and show you a few examples of each. That’s why brands like Ikea, Volkswagen and Apple, among many others, have utilized specific fonts exclusively for years and years.

Wayne also penned the video treatment for first single “Poppin’ Bottles.” On top of everything else, Lil Wayne colleague Birdman is also releasing a solo album this year. “The first single is going to be called ‘Rap, Rock, R&B.’ You know what, I think we’ll do a mixtape called ‘Rap, Rock and R&B’ to introduce what we’re doing.” “The group is going to be Bad Ass Grasshopper,” he ![]() Until then, Wayne and Juelz Satana’s duet album, “I Can’t Feel My Face” is being held up with “paperwork” but Wayne promised a single this month.Īs for Wayne’s Young Money Entertainment, the MC says the label will releaseĪ group album as well.

Once the show was wrapped in 1996, Lucasfilm went back to their golden child, and the Star Wars prequels were made and released between 19.Īs production was ending on Revenge of the Sith, George Lucas was working on plans of continuing the saga without needing to do new movies. Think of the show as if Solo was a series instead of a single movie – a younger actor playing a role originated by Harrison Ford, and telling the stories of how he met Sallah, etc. Following the release of The Last Crusade in 1989, Lucas once again looked to television, leading to the highly successful The Young Indiana Jones Adventures, which was, as the title sounds, about a young Indiana Jones growing up and into the archaeologist we are introduced to in Raiders of the Lost Ark. While the Star Wars craze was dying down in the mid-80s, another Lucasfilm project had come along and grabbed the attention of the public, being Indiana Jones. While a sequel was produced, neither film was received well enough for Lucasfilm to consider doing their live action Ewok series, instead making it into an animated program. After that failure, Lucasfilm stepped away from television for a while, returning in 1984 with the premiere of a movie that was designed to spin off into a full series, titled The Caravan of Courage – focusing not on the iconic space battles or the continued adventures of Luke Skywalker, but the Ewoks from Return of the Jedi. ![]() George Lucas did have some early conversations with networks, which over the next few months would turn into the Star Wars Holiday Special. The earliest inklings of a live-action Star Wars TV show came about around the same time as the original 1977 release, as science fiction movies had been moving to the small screen, notably Logan's Run and Planet of the Apes. ![]() ![]() These pieces are presented in a graduating difficulty scale: the easiest is first, and the most challenging is last. There are actually some good reasons for this - minor scales and chords can be more complicated to consider than simple major ones, and there tend to be a few extra moving parts in the way classical music in minor is put together.įortunately, as long as you’ve been keeping up with your basics, the pieces featured here should prove fairly easy to learn. If you’ve been learning piano for any length of time you may have noticed that minor pieces are few and far between at the earlier difficulty levels. ![]() Many of these pieces may not be familiar to you, but they’ve been hand-picked for being fun to play, educational, and yes, for being easy.īut wait, there’s more! each piece is presented with a high-quality video performance by Liberty Park Music piano instructor West Troiano, and comes with a downloadable, custom-edited version of the score!įor this article we’ll be checking out 10 easy pieces from classical learning literature that all share a notable characteristic: they’re all in minor. ![]() ![]() Here at Liberty Park Music we decided to put together an article series showing off satisfying, well-constructed repertoire and arrangements that actually fall into the “easy” category for different difficulty levels. There are lots of articles out there claiming to contain “easy” piano pieces some of them are good, others not so much, and many try to grab you with big famous piece names like "Claire de lune" or " Für Elise," even though neither of these pieces are anywhere close to easy. ![]() ![]() It is freaking scary, and God talks to that and he speaks to us right where we are. And I just want people to know that that is life. It was to say, look, this is the reality of how we feel sometimes, and this is the reality of how God responds to that. And that's what came out of my heart because that's what I was hearing, and so that's what I chose to leave it in the song. It's aggressive and demanding and terrifying. ![]() And I know fear and Satan and death - the voice of all of that is not poetic, it's not thoughtful, it's not patient. So that song is there for people who have felt like me. At the end of the day, that song is not going to impact somebody who has never felt that way anyways. It took me a long time, and I really sought counsel and had a lot of conversations with pastor friends of mine and family. The choice to keep that original version, which is straight from off the top of my head, really, as well as the edited one. I usually figure it's good for me to pour out my soul to him, and that's what that song is. And the actual lyric is something that is from my journal - I don't know how everyone else has conversations with God, but I have very vulnerable conversations, and God already knows how afraid I am. That song is about the fear of running from God or that God will turn his back on me and I will end up apart from him in hell. The short answer is, that song comes from the deepest part of my gut and my being, and the fear that I face throughout my life - I've had really severe anxiety disorder my whole life, and that's been a major part of my struggle and story. ![]() Can you share the vision behind the song and the meaning?ĬG: Well, first I would say I think that for people who haven't actually listened to the record, or listened to that song, just listen to those last three songs in a row, and I think that it will be self-explanatory in terms of what is going on there. Spirit You All: About half the Kings Kaleidoscope's fanbase is about to have a stroke because Beyond Control's second-to-last song, "A Prayer", has two f-words on it. What was the purpose behind the song especially the usage of the cuss words? Spirit You All recently did an interview with Kings Kaleidoscope's frontman, Chad Gardner regarding their new album when the question about "A Prayer" came up: That sounds like a little hypocritical like the preacher condemning gluttony yet looks like a sumo wrestler. Basically, he was not approving the song, but when on to say that he does cuss, however, he is mindful of his surroundings. One person, who is a member of a worship band, said he hates when a Christian band cusses to become more edgy, raw, and authentic. Some praised it, others rejected it, while others are on the fence wondering if this was appropriate or not. ![]() There have been some disagreements over Kings Kaleidoscope's usage of the word in this song. Here are those lyrics with the word edited out: Last week, they released an album that featured a song called, "A Prayer," where not one, but two f-bombs were used in the song. The debate has become a little more, for lack of a better term, intense recently, but this time is pertains to the worship band Kings Kaleidoscope. There were stories of Mark Driscoll, during his preaching ministry at Mars Hill Church, dropping a f-bomb during a sermon. I personally not heard a sermon where the preacher cusses but I do have a friend that has been called the cussing evangelist because he has been known for using a cuss word or two in his sermons. ![]() We have heard stories of preachers using cuss words in their sermons. Is it appropriate for Christians to use them or not? Some would say depends on the circumstance while others say no. Of all the things we can argue or disagree about, it is the use of our words. There is a great debate with Christians these days over the use of cuss words. ![]() ![]() The game PCB that came with the cabinet was actually very close to a production Major Havoc PCB. The area under the marquee is where the speakers are and the center square is actually a peice of glass with very nice handmade graphics overlayed with mylar. The cabinet itself is actually a Crytal Castles cabinet. The game has an Amplifone monitor in it (dated 11/22/83 and labeled "with diode mods"). Yikes! The picture here is after I finished getting it all cleaned up and running. I bought it from John Morrison (Sunnyvale) who in turn bought it at a garage sale from a former Atari employee for $50. Im lucky enough to own this beastly now finally. Mark added the last four levels of the game (13,14,15,16), he made them hard enough that no one could get past them (he thought). Mark Cerny was one of those contributors and helped Owen get the game finished up for production. Apparently the comradery at Atari was pretty close and programmers helpedĮach other out as much as possible by writing small tidbits of code or sharing code between games. did most of the design of Major Havoc, many others at Atari helped putting this game together. Owen actually patented his smooth animation procedure that is used in Major Havoc for the spaceman and also deserves credit for making the volcanoes "active" in Battlezone.Īlthough Owen R. Major Havoc was Owen' final game for Atari before he moved on to Bally/Sente, programming games such as Shrike Avenger, Goalie Ghost, Name that Tune and Grudge Match. The game's creator, Owen Rubin, had worked at Atari for many years, programming games such as Orbit, Space Duel, Sky Diver and Tunnel Hunt. Tollian Web -> Alpha 1 -> Rex Havoc -> Major Havoc The Creators Apparently the name Alpha 1 was tacked onto the game for play testing but the game's designer has no recolection of that name (Hmmmm, the Atari/CIA connection unfolds! -) The name of the game went as follows. The game was originally called Tollian Web by the designer but this name was never really attached to the game outside of Atari. Alpha 1 was an early prototype of the game Major Havoc. ![]() ![]() Experts are looking at all available data to understand how well the vaccines are working, including how new variants, like Delta, affect vaccine effectiveness.

Today, in addition to its continuing research in aeronautics and life sciences, Ames pushes the frontiers of research in lunar science, astrobiology, small low-cost missions, airborne science and the search for planets outside of our own solar system. Ames was influential in many ways in establishing what is now known as Silicon Valley. Building upon its incredible capability with wind tunnels, Ames research expanded into computational fluid dynamics, simulation technology, information technology, air traffic management research, tilt rotorcraft, atmospheric entry systems, human factors and life sciences. As NASA remembers:ĭuring its earliest days, the center’s researchers broke new ground in all flight regimes - the subsonic, transonic, supersonic and hypersonic - through construction of increasingly sophisticated wind tunnels, research aircraft, and methods of theoretical aerodynamics. The Ames Research Center was founded to further the US’ research into the aerodynamics of World War II aircraft, and later it was developed further and further in order to conduct spaceflight research and information technology studies.
