We hope that you found helpful our inaugural tip of the week on “how to tell if your coins are silver” and look forward to sharing with you many more tips in the future. nickels were composed of silver for a short period of time, so this is also a way to potentially acquire silver coins at face value. They are also darker in appearance than standard nickels composed of nickel-copper. These coins were produced by the U.S Mint from 1942 – 1945 and have a mint mark on the reverse side above the Monticello. silver coins, we’d be remiss if we didn’t touch on the topic of 35% silver war nickels. While you may not make friends with your local bank teller, hopefully the silver coins you find will be worth your time. Pull any silver coins, replace with nickel-copper coins and tape the rolls back up. Peel the wrapper open and look for silver items based on our recommendation above. Once you request rolls of coins from your bank (preferably hand rolled rolls), you can use a straight blade or box cutter to lightly cut length-wise along the roll. Considering that the silver price has increased in recent years, this is a viable way to earn some extra cash. Some of our customers obtain dime, quarter and half dollar rolls from the bank in search of real silver coins. While we’re on the subject of silver coins, it’s relatively easy to put our tip into practice. coins, it doesn’t necessarily apply to foreign coins, which may or may not have evidence of copper on the edge. While inspecting the edge of coins works great for U.S. The coin to the left has a solid silver edge with no traces of copper, which means that it contains precious metal content. A solid copper stripe can be seen on the coin to the right, which indicates that it’s clad. The above picture is a perfect example of what we’re trying to illustrate. They typically come packaged in blue or red envelopes or brown boxes. These coins were only available by special order and were never intended to be circulated. silver coins minted for general circulation that contain 40% silver are Kennedy half dollars minted from 1965 – 1970.Įisenhower silver dollars produced by the San Francisco Mint from 1971 – 1976 also are also 40% silver. If you can see a copper stripe, then the coin is clad.Ī more subdued silver stripe with faint traces of copper could mean that the coin is 40% silver. If the coin has a solid silver stripe, then you can feel confident that it’s silver. Inspect the Edge of Your Coinsįortunately we have a solution! The best way to determine if your coins are silver is to view the edge of the coin. Lastly, if you have a large lot of coins, it can take hours to read the date of each coin. While this is helpful information to know, if you’re like some of us, your eyes aren’t what they used to be. Furthermore, 90% silver coins can have a substantial amount of wear, which can make the date difficult, if not impossible to read. Dimes and quarters minted after 1965 and half dollars minted after 1970 are clad, which are base metal coins composed of nickel and copper. It basically means that these coins don’t have collectible or numismatic value. Junk silver is just another term for silver value. silver dimes, quarters and half dollars minted in 1964 or earlier contain 90% silver content. These coins are commonly referred to as “ junk silver.” We’re also only going to be addressing coins produced for general circulation – not obvious silver coins, such as American silver eagles. This is a frequently asked question and one that we thought would have broad appeal. For purposes of this piece, we’re going to limit our discussion to United States minted coins. Our first tip of the week is on “how to tell if your coins are silver.” We’re excited to announce that we’re going to be providing weekly tips for subscribers of our newsletters, so sign up now to receive help hints, tips, tricks and inside information that you’re not likely to receive anywhere else.

Clearly, this cuts down on new book purchases – we don’t need to buy new books when we need to re-read the previous books in a series. Publishers should realize that when we have to wait too long, we have to go back and re-read the previous releases in a series to refresh our memories. agree completely! I read for enjoyment, NOT for frustration. Well, I said my piece, much more than I intended. Kudos to you for a fabulous story! I truly am waiting with bated breathe for the next book. I like the fact that besides Eva’s self esteem issues she is still a much more stronger character and gives as good as she gets. I enjoyed both series but I am leaning more towards the Crossfire. I don’t hold the opinion that the Crossfire series is a rip off of FSG. I just hope that Gideon really, truly knows what he has in her and try to see things from her perspective when it comes to Corrine.Īs an aside….I read the FSG trilogy while I respect every person’s opinion I want to say that besides both series having billionaires, three separate books, and control issues in some of the characters, I believe both series are in a class of themselves. I have no doubt that she is grateful and would say so and even go as far as demonstrating how much she appreciates and understand what he’s done for her in the third installation of this series. My heart literally broke into tiny pieces when he totally ignored her in the conference room during the Kingsman presentation with her boss and the other executive. To have endured all the character changes Gideon displayed after their long weekend was monumental on her part. I am so hooked on Eva and Gideon that I’ve read the books four times already! Besides all her hangups, etc. This is so wrong! I’m still suffering from the change of date on the book….although I totally understand the reason behind it. 1.1.1 - add bower support and Cheatsheet page.add nested pseudo classes for less/scss.add 'fixed-width', 'list' and 'stack' classes.
We can’t wait to see what these game hackers come up with next. Another hacker managed to program and execute a version of single player pong all from within Pokemon Blue. Speed runs have been performed on Pokemon with very similar techniques. This isn’t the first time we’ve seen this type of hack. The video below shows the speed run but doesn’t get too far into the technical details, but you can read more about it here. The console executes them and does as commanded, and the game is over just a few minutes after it began. setup this table to hold values that tell the game to jump to the end credits. The result of all of this manipulation and glitching is that all of the values in the sprite X coordinate table are executed as CPU instructions. The code ends up jumping to an area of memory that doesn’t contain normal game instructions. This triggers the power up condition, which as we already know was never programmed into the game. When the Chuck spawns, it will take that empty sprite slot and suddenly the game believes that Yoshi is holding the Chuck in his mouth. If the coin glitch is performed in a specific location within the level, a Chargin’ Chuck will spawn just after the coin is collected. The developers never programmed the game to properly handle this scenario, because it was supposed to be impossible. So under normal circumstances, this sprite will never actually act as a power up. Also, Chuck is an enemy so it actually hurts Mario rather than act as a power up. Normally this doesn’t matter because it also has a set flag to tell the game that it cannot be eaten by Yoshi. This sprite happens to have the flag set as though it’s a power up. There is an enemy in the game called Chargin’ Chuck. The game just knows that it’s whatever sprite is in sprite slot X. So he ends up holding an empty sprite with no properties. The result is that the game knows there is something inside of Yoshi’s mouth but it doesn’t know what. A glitch exists where Yoshi can start eating a coin, but Mario jumps off of Yoshi and collects the coin himself simultaneously. In the game, Mario can collect coins himself, or Yoshi can also collect them by eating them. The next part of the speed run involves something called the item swap glitch. Each sprite in the game has a flag to tell the SNES that the item is able to act as a power up. Mario can either collect the power up by himself, or he can use his friendly dinosaur Yoshi to eat the power up, which will also apply the item’s effects to Mario. For example, the mushroom will make him grow in size. In Super Mario World, there are special items that Mario can obtain that act as a power up. Once the table was setup properly, needed a way to get the SNES to execute the X table as CPU instructions. It’s a meticulous process that likely took a lot of practice to get right. By moving objects to specific places, he’s manipulating a section of the game’s memory to hold specific values and a specific order. What he’s doing here is manipulating the game’s X coordinate table for the sprites. He then proceeds to move certain objects in the game to very specific places. If you watch the video below, you’ll see visit one of the first available levels in the game. was able to prove that this “credits warp” glitch works on the original hardware. This method of beating the game was originally discovered by Twitch user but it was performed on an emulator. How is this possible? He actually reprogrammed the game by moving specific objects to very specific places and then executing a glitch. He managed to beat the game in five minutes and 59.6 seconds. Recently set a world record speed run of the classic Super Nintendo game Super Mario World on the original SNES hardware. Other applications will display the first or last item. MinimServer will read this format as well. However it has a certain degree of popularity with some Windows based taggers and at least one Mac based tagger. In this method Yate will write a multi value Artist field to multiple ©ART atoms each with a single data atom. Apple applications will only show the first item. While this is in spec I can only find a single application other than MinimServer which processes the data. In this setting Yate will write a multi value Artist field to a single ©ART atom with multiple data child atoms. The second value is Single Atom/Multiple Data. For any field such as Artist, Yate will write the multi value delimiter to a single ©ART atom with a single data child. The default value is Single Atom which is what Yate previously did. The new setting is in Preferences-Audio-MPEG-4 and is called Multi value write method. I’ve had a few discussions with the creator of MinimServer and made a few changes to accommodate his implementation as he doesn’t parse the separator characters in fields. Unfortunately this causes unseemly sequences to appear in iTunes/Music etc. For MinimServer, take a look at the MinimServer QNAP installation instructions. Playlists MinimServer recognizes files with the following file extensions as playlists. Files that don't have a file extension in this list are not recognized as audio files. Yate has previously done things the Apple way and basically wrote single text items for all fields. MinimServer recognizes files with the following file extensions as audio files containing the audio data formats and tagging formats listed below. “Other than a few minor fixes the only change is in a new option which can be used to control how multi value items are written to MPEG-4 files. Here you can read what Barry realized (by his own words): If you have a network music player that supports the UPnP AV standards, youll get much more from your music collection if youre using MinimServer as your music server software. The ability of Audirvana to treat m4a/Alac tags in this way ( Single Atom/Multiple Data ) would be really very useful for those of us using Minimserver beside Audirvana. MinimServer is a new UPnP AV music server with a number of innovative features that make it easier to organize and explore your music collection. As I’m a Yate (macOS tag editor) user I discussed it with (from - Yate) and with the support of Simon Nash from Minimserver he was able to realize the change in Yate. JRebel, which has been available since 2007 and was formerly called JavaRebel, takes a different approach. The component granularity allows also very small bundles to be reloaded making the experience almost instantaneous.Ī general problem with reloading classes this way is, that the old and new class versions are available at the same time and have to be carefully handled by the framework. The state for the new component is already available within the framework. That's why reloaded components with new classloaders are not an issue for them. serialized) before and then reapplied or reloaded into the "new" application or module.Ĭurrent component-based frameworks like Grails or RIFE are responsible for handling component state themselves. To restore the application state it must be stored (e.g. Hotdeployment is effectively a restart of the application. So classloader leaks are introduced that lead to increased memory consumption after continuous redeploys. Then the old application is partly still around, it is just not longer used. Often it is not possible to remove all references to instances, classes or classloaders completely from the JVM. If you remove all references to the loaded classes as well as the classloader you can unload the application and reload it completely using a new classloader. You load an application (or part of it) with a dedicated classloader. The redeployment features of most servlet containers, application servers and OSGi implementations each work along the same lines. Otherwise the concerned instances would have to be replaced completely and all references to them updated as well (including cascading changes) Application Server Redeployment/Hotdeployment One problem is that the state of object instances must not be affected. The complexity of the JVM - especially garbage collectors, memory layout and Hotspot make it difficult to provide a general solution for transparent class bytecode replacement. It does not contribute to the actual reloading process. Since Java 5, hotswapping is available through the instrumentation API.The API is also used by JRebel, but only used to instrument infrastructure class loaders and classes. Hotswap is also ignorant of classloaders, it identifies classes only by their name and works only for existing classes. It doesn't allow structural changes or adding or removal of class members. it only works in Debug mode and only handles changes within method bodies. One might argue that JVM Hotswapping which replaces bytecode in place, has been around for some time (since 2002, JDK 1.4). There are several ways to address the problem of updating changed classes within an application without restarting, but all come with different problems. The reduced productivity can contributes to a lower developer motivation due to the lower number of successes and achievements during the workday. But it also applies to the infrastructure induced causes shown earlier. In the available literature the cost of context switching is discussed for workplace interruptions like phone calls, emails and personal requests. Recovering the original context also takes a substantial amount of time. The amount of information that has to be kept in short term memory for development flow is quite high, but it deteriorates quickly when focus is lost. Context switching in a complex task environment like software development is a major problem. They made the data publicly available and used it to calculate average hourly waiting time of of 6 minutes for building and about 10.5 minutes for redeploying applicationīesides the direct costs of the time spent waiting, there are other, hidden costs. To support the discussion of productivity, Zeroturnaround gathered statistical data from over 1100 Java developers. JRebel aims to reduce development turnaround time significantly by adding a specialized javaagent to the JVM's startup parameters that handles the more difficult details of runtime class replacement. The need to redeploy or restart a Java application during development introduces unecessary delays which reduce productivity. The information in this article is partly distilled from the series and partly taken from our communication. He recently published a series detailing JVM classloading and runtime class replacement. With the recent release of JRebel 3.0 we spoke with Zeroturnaround's CTO Jevgeni Kabanov to detail some of the internal workings of JRebel, applicability and integration issues and understand the benefits a Java developer could gain from this technology. I had one at 26 weeks and another at 32 weeks and it was amazing! The most enjoyable thing I could have had done while I was pregnant was seeing him and what he looked liked before he got here. I had 2 sessions of the 3D/4D ultrasounds when I was pregnant with my son in 2009. It was such a great experience!! I encourage everyone to go there!! They are FANTASTIC!! The staff is awesome! So nice! And the memories you get for the price is amazing. I had my 3D/4D done today at Tiny Toes!!! It was AMAZING! I LOVED THEM. Its unlike anything you could ever imagine! Thanks to everyone at Tiny Toes Imaging! You guys are awesome! I have never met a more friendlier staff or had a more exciting experience in my life! You have seriously made this more of a memorable experience than I could have ever imagined! I went to Tiny Toes at 24 weeks and again actually today at 32 weeks… and I highly recommend to anyone who is expecting to go here. I would recommend them to anyone, they were fantastic!! They were so nice and went out of their way to make me feel comfortable. Wonderful experience! As a Christmas present to the grandparents we did an early gender determination and I could not have asked for a better experience. I would recommend these people to EVERYONE! We are planning on going back for a more detailed ultrasound at around 30 weeks. But the tech was amazing, she spent extra time with us to make 100% sure that we were having a baby girl, because she didn’t want to cooperate, she was nice, professional, and VERY fun to work with. I didn’t think we would really be able to see too much, and just thought it would be a quick ultrasound and we wouldn’t be able to tell much. My husband and I came in for gender determination and a “sneak peak” in 3D and 4D when I was 18 weeks. We had an awesome time last weekend getting to see our little Natty-bug!! Despite the snow, we still made it for our appointment, had an awesome Sonogram Tech, and walked away with far more than we expected! Thanks so much! I will have already recommended this to several other mom’s-to-be I know!! What an awesome experience! We had such a great time seeing our precious little boy! The staff were very kind, personable, and professional! We can’t wait to meet our son any day now! I highly recommend this experience to all parents-to-be! You guys are terrific and we would recommend you to anyone. We loved the professional, as well as intimate, experience we had. Thanks for doing such a wonderful job on our 3D/4D ultrasound. If you are feeling anxious and just want to see the heartbeat for reassurance then come and do one of our packages any time between 9 to 40 weeks.What Others are Saying About 3D & 4D Ultrasound If you have any questions during the scan, the sonographer will happily answer them.

Gender determination is available from 14 weeks. Larger women are better between 30 and 36 weeks. In the 30 to 39 week period you get lovely facial views, depending on the position of the baby.Ģ2 to 34 weeks is the best time to book to get beautiful photos of your baby. Many people have a 3D/4D scan early in their pregnancy around 14 to 16 weeks and then return around 28 to 36 weeks to see the baby almost fully grown with beautiful facial photos at this stage.ĭuring the 14 to 30 week period you can see more of the baby including arms and legs and all the associated movements. This will give you an Estimated Due Date which will be used to calculate how many weeks you are. An early dating scan should have been performed before booking for a 3D scan. The Baby Scene offers scans starting from 9 weeks right through to 40 weeks. The Baby Scene would love the opportunity to share a bonding experience with you and your baby. Our ultrasound studio is set up to create a welcoming and cozy environment where you can relax and watch the big screen TV in comfort, with family and friends around you.

The digital creation of the game and cards allows for these decks to be stored digitally and to be tracked. This deck will have its own unique name identifier, and a list of cards included in that deck on the back. "In KeyForge you just had the single random deck, but in SolForge with the half-decks you still have the agency of picking which two halfs you want to put together." Doing this Garfield hopes players will be able to create unique strategies that you might not have been able to capitalize on without those two half-decks being put together.Įvery Half-Deck you obtain has a Forgeborn and ten different cards (each with three versions that upgrade through play). The bigger aspect of SolForge Fusion comes from the two half-decks that you put together. If you're interested in learning more about some unique mechanics behind the game and how it plays, then be sure to check out our review of SolForge Fusion. Designed by Magic The Gathering creator Richard Garfield and Ascension Deckbuilding Game creator Justin Gary, SolForge Fusion promised not just a physical card game with algorithmically generated cards for unique deck design, but also an in-depth Organized Play plan where fans could shape the world through participating in Tournaments. This new evolution of the digital CCG SolForge from Stone Blade Entertainment would bring the digital game to the physical world. SolForge Fusion began as a Kickstarted project in September of 2021 and managed to get fully funded in just 26 minutes. Last month we were lucky enough to sit down with Garfield and Gary to talk about SolForge Fusion, its creation, and its roadmap. This new project is not just the kick-off of a new game for fans of the genre to get their hands on but also pioneers some exciting technology behind the machine creation of cards and a new way to engage in tournament play and a game's narrative. SolForge Fusion, an upcoming hybrid deck game from the minds of Richard Garfield and Justin Gary, is just days from hitting store shelves. |
