![]() Maybe it is the fact that we know the physical boundaries of the object, in this case, the LED. Emotions and feelings have this multi-dimension of realism that is hard to infuse and make objects mimic. A natural comparison to the real life also transmits a more genuine feeling into something that is not real or organic. The comparison between simple sensors got me thinking about how unique every interactive setting is and that a lot more can be felt if the right coupling is made between the input and output. A big scare moment for us would take more time to recover from than a smaller scare would. The behaviour of the LED is designed as close as I can think of human behaviour. The recovery period should also follow in proportion to how much scared the LED got. Meaning a light knock will run a code where the LED is not that much scared while a loud knock will yield the maximum amount expression of being scared. In the video demonstration the piezo is set go of at different triggers. The LDR had an issue and that was that the user didn’t know how much limitation of the light was needed in order to make the LED frightened. The sensor definitely displays a more dynamic behaviour than the photoresistor for both parties in the interaction. The more higher value the piezo can sense (the louder we slam the table) the more frightened and longer recovery the LED will need.īelow are some videos of different scares. As we can hear the sound produced we can certainly assess or at least get a feeling of how intense the scare is for us but also for the LED. So a more dynamic interaction can be crafted. Unlike the photoresistor we (the user) can measure the “scare”. ![]() Piezo taped to the table for maximum effect The piezo works most accurately by being taped to the surface that is being used for vibrations, in this case the table. ![]() This comes very in handy as scare can be a loud sound, a slam on the table, some object randomly falling down on the table an making a noise. The thought of using a piezo element came naturally as it’s a sensor that can detect vibrations. ![]()

We have shared different tools that can be capitalized on to transfer files remotely from one device to another.

Of course, if a tool is affordable and fits your budget, it will only be worth considering in that case. Cloud Storage SizeĬloud storage size is a general factor that matters whenever you are choosing a file-sharing website to collaborate with others or share different file formats remotely. The higher the file size and bandwidth limit, the better. The bandwidth limit expresses the usage by each user to download the stored data. The file size limit shows the maximum size of files that can be shared in one day or once. Therefore, when a user selects a tool for file sharing or uses it as cloud storage, security and privacy also matter. The security that your data is encrypted and privacy that no unauthorized user can access your data are also very important.

![]() ![]() This book is completely relevant and inspiring for anti-bullying advocates, and ought to be required reading for all school administrators, staff - and parents, in short all those interested in improving schools. I love the resolution in this story as well as how relatable it is.Books: Recommended and In Review NJBULLYING.ORG WEBSITE MAIN PAGE Books: Relevant, Some Recommended ( the reviews indicate which is which)Īnother great new book: "How Children Succeed" by Paul Tough. Willow recognizes that things are not right and in the end finds a way to take a stand when speaking up seemed to hard to do. However, she is bossing everyone around to the point that she is a big bully. She appears to be a popular girls and at first glance may even seem incredibly nice. Willow Finds a Way ” by Lana Button and Tania Howells- This story is such an important one for bullying because it shows a situation where the bully is not immediately recognized as a bully. With a little help from the teacher they find a way to make the classroom a safe and fun environment for everyone again. In this story Llama has a bully in his classroom who is hard to play with and doesn’t always say nice things. “Llama Llama and the Bully Goat” by Anna Dewdney- This book, like the other Llama books I’ve read, is not only fantastic, but geared for the littlest bookworms. Such a darling story about friendship and kindness. He takes a stand in defense and the two end up fast friends. “Stick and Stone” by Beth Ferry and Tom Lichtenheld- Stick and Stone were alone until one day Stick sees Stone being bullied. It is also fantastic enough for starting so many discussions about action and bullying. This book is a little more advanced perhaps in its format so I would recommend it for older readers. Then that difference has ripple effects and that one can become many. “One”by Kathryn Otoshi- This book is powerful! It is brilliant in how it illustrates (in its minimal yet so effective manner) that all it takes is one person to take a stand and make a difference. In the end she learns that joining the bullies isn’t the best situation and that true friendship is forgiving and always kind. In this book it is a best friend who gives in to peer pressure and joins a group of bullies who are picking on her friend Maggie. Harrison- I love this sweet story and the fact that it is a twist on anti-bullying books that I don’t think I have seen before. I like that this story is someone standing up for someone else being bullied and the two become friends afterwards. “Super Manny Stands Up!”by Kelly DiPucchio and Stephanie Graegin- In this story Manny is a self confident individual who when he sees someone being bullied at school decides to stand up and speak up even though it is intimidating. In the end teamwork and taking a stand prevails and they learn that bullies can become friends. ![]() “Chester Raccoon and the Big Bad Bully”by Audrey Penn and Barbara Leonard Gibson-This story about bullying is a favorite of mine because the protagonists experience with confronting the bully is guided by his mother and filled with kindness. After some consideration on the subject, she finds just the right way to be kind and make a difference. She wants to be kind, but doesn’t know where to start at first. “I Walk With Vanessa”by Kerascoët- This book starts with a scenario at school where a child witnesses another child being embarrassed and bullied. However, they understand one another better and the bullying is replaced with respect. I also like that the bully and the protagonist don’t end up being friends because more often than not this is probably the case. “What Happens Next”by Susan Hughes and Carey Sookocheff- This is one of the more helpful books on bullying that I have seen! It addresses how the child feels begin bullied and the steps that they take to address and resolve the issue. She decides to speak up and we learn that even the smallest person can make the biggest difference. “The Smallest Girl in The Smallest Grade”by Justin Roberts and Christian Robinson- In this story a sweet little girl notices everything around her at school and some of the things she sees she feels just aren’t right. ![]() In the meantime, I am reading them fantastic books like these in hopes that these strong protagonists can address the issue, spark discussion and make a lasting influence. Chances are they will have experiences with all three in some form or another and I am hoping that when they do they recognize it for what it is, remember what I have taught them, and change course immediately or know the correct steps to get help. I have three big hopes for my children: 1- That they will never be the bully 2- That they won’t be bullied and 3- That if they ever see bullying they find a way to “stand-up” and “speak-up”. It exists, sadly, in possibly every school on the planet and is expressed and lurks in so many different forms from social media bashing to shoves in the hallway. ![]() ![]() ![]() Print and export PDFs, bitmap or vector graphics images, videos and 3D files in standard file formats.Import home blueprint to draw walls upon it, 3D models to complete default catalog, and textures to customize surfaces.Create photorealistic images and videos with the ability to customize lights and control sunlight effect according to the time of day and geographic location.Annotate the plan with room areas, dimension lines, texts and show the North direction with a compass rose.While designing the home in 2D, simultaneously view it in 3D from an aerial point of view, or navigate into it from a virtual visitor point of view. ![]() Change color, texture, size, thickness, location and orientation of furniture, walls, floors and ceilings.Add furniture to the plan from a searchable and extensible catalog organized by categories such as kitchen, living room, bedroom, bathroom.Insert doors and windows in walls by dragging them in the plan, and let Sweet Home 3D compute their holes in walls.Draw straight, round or sloping walls with precise dimensions using the mouse or the keyboard.Many thanks to all the designers and the translators for their contribution to free models.

I actually picked up Epic Pinball piece by piece, back around 1995-ish, Blockbuster video had a promotion one summer where everytime you rented 2 movies or games at the same time, they would give you a boxed "PC game." Turns out these boxes were actually individual epic pinball tables, if you kept reinstalling them into the same directory, it would fill out into a full copy of Epic Pinball. There are many objectives to accomplish, but even once you can run the table, it's just so much fun to keep playing and racking up points. ![]() What kept me coming back is how well laid out the table is. It's one of the more easy video pinball games I've ever played. These weird physics can actually be more fun, IMO, and space cadet pinball has some super video gamey physics. I actually like video pinball more than real pinball, the physics of video pinball games isn't at all like real world physics and thus can be bent or broken as the game deems fit. I'd always liked pinball, going way back to playing real pinball tables in the late 80's and early 90's. This is technically only a demo for a larger game - Maxis' Full Tilt Pinball, but this single table has no real restrictions and can be played infinitely. ![]() back then, you had to pay for them!), and I played the shit out of this on my computer. ![]() We got Plus 95 the moment it was released (for those too young, the Plus packs were the precursor to the Microsoft service packs.
