I'm slightly more aggressive with burning than most. Deny charge to people if possible to prevent them from getting it. Start of game (and most of game ) the 2o action is super strong. I'm sure you're leaving resources on the table not managing it well. Ok so during the game charge bowl management is critical. There is no set opening just rough structures of what might or might work. Other factions like openings like lab, mine, mine, mine. Some factions like an early pi so a decent round 1 can look like pi, ts, mine. An early TS next to 3 opponents is huge and can be worth more than other actions in some cases. Once you get really good you can predict if people are doing builds in certain orders to deny charge. You want to look at all the colors in the game and try to place at least 1 mine to maximize the amount of charge people will give. Some factions can get 4+ easily, others are okish with 2 but you really want 3 as a sweet spot.Įarly adjacently can really help you get going. The goal is to get 3 feds per game for most factions. If you place poorly you can lock yourself out. This is also tied into your starting mine placement. ![]() ![]() You also should be planning out your feds. This is what I consider before the game even starts. You are not required to do these things but I really helps to understand what each faction likes, and then take note of what tiles are below and above it I really like going up sci with geoden, eco with firaks, sci with bescods, eco with hallas, nav with gleens, gaia is a must for baltaks, int is 100 percent a trap with xenos but I do it every time, taklons I like just one step on eco to have a little charge to get the brainstone going but then it really depends. (Sometimes I'll reconsider if playing against Ivits or other early pi factions) My chosen faction also dictates what track I often start go to up. You need starting adjacency as a starting rule. If the step booster is in the game it can be really good for early expansion if you have a 1step right next to starting planet.įinally after all factions are chosen mine placement really matters. Having an idea of what's in the game is super helpful. The free tech tiles can be invaluable if your offers are meh. Usually it's not ideal but it's all about making a plan. See how they mesh with your possible plans for advanced tiles. Next I look at regular tech tiles and where they are on the tech track. If ivits are in the game and I'm playing them any fed scoring tile is great. So what ones are good and mesh decently with the factions on offer that game (we do random factions and bid) an example. It can drive what factions I want to bid onĪfter checking out round scoring I check out advanced tiles. I also look ay endgame scoring at this time. 4-6 should start to guide you towards your endgame plan. 1-3 are nice to have but I mostly ignore as I'm trying to build my engine. What I generally do is take a look at the round scoring bonuses. Every choice matters from starting faction to booster tile to mine placement at start of game You have all the info in front of you at the beginning. What worked last game will likely not work this game. The goal of the game is to score as many point within the constraints of the current set up. I wrote this at the bottom but liked it a lot so here it is at the start. ![]()

![]() Even in urban areas, green space is never far away – Helsinki, for example, is recognized as one of Europe’s greenest cities. From snow-capped fells to pristine lakes and endless forests, Finland’s diverse landscape offers plenty of opportunities for both relaxation and outdoor activities. And a fourth is this Nordic nation’s stunningly beautiful – and easily accessible – nature. Two more are Finland’s government accountability and high-functioning infrastructure. After all, we are the happiest country in the world! One reason for that is the country’s strong social welfare programs, including free education and affordable healthcare for all. Many people come to Finland for work and stay for everything else. Visit the family page to learn more about how Finland supports children and families. Finnish women are some of the world’s most highly educated, and Finland is the only country in developed world where fathers spend more time with school-aged children than mothers do. Strong support for families is also exemplified by the near-equal gender split in the workforce, with 78% of men and 73% of women working at least part time. The reason? Having affordable, reliable care for children ensures better work-life balance for parents and enables all adults to fully participate in the workforce. Private daycare is also available and relatively affordable. Fees are determined by income level, with a maximum payment of less than 300 euros per month per child and a hefty discount for each additional child. The full list, as well as the ranking for large companies, can be found on Comparably here.Family welfare and equality for all are two ideals universally upheld by Finnish society, so it’s no surprise they’re also deeply embedded in workplace policies and culture – or that opportunities for family leave are generous.įurthermore, every child in Finland is entitled to municipal daycare by law. The companies that made the top of the list fall into different industries, from Jam City in mobile gaming to Course Hero in educational technology.Īll information, including industry categories and anonymous employee quotes, were shared with Insider from Comparably.

Frequently Asked Questions About Tear Trough Filler ![]() ![]() “Air” is a timeless underdog story of grit, dreams, and moxie. Character actor Matthew Maher, who always brings an intriguing presence to whatever film he’s in, stands out as Nike’s idiosyncratic shoe design guru, Peter Moore. That includes director of marketing Rob Strasser ( Jason Bateman, whose mastery of dry, rat-a-tat banter is the perfect fit for this material) player-turned-executive Howard White (an amusingly fast-talking Chris Tucker) Jordan’s swaggering agent, David Falk ( Chris Messina, who nearly steals the whole movie with one hilariously profane telephone tirade) and finally, Jordan’s proud and protective mother, Deloris ( Viola Davis, whose arrival provides the film with a new level of weight and wisdom). Vaccaro, a doughy, middle-aged bulldog in various puddy-colored Members Only jackets (the on-point work of costume designer Charlese Antoinette Jones), knows Jordan can change all that, and most “Air” consists of him convincing everyone around him of that notion. Nike is also an also-ran among its competitors. The year is 1984 (boy, is it ever-more on that in a minute), and Nike’s basketball division is an afterthought within the Oregon-based running shoe company. Vaccaro, as his friend and colleague from the company’s earliest days, is the only one who can speak truth to power, and the affection and friction of that camaraderie shine through. He walks around the office barefoot, yet he drives a Porsche he insists is not purple but rather grape in hue. Affleck is Nike co-founder and former CEO Phil Knight, an intriguing mix of Zen calm and corporate arrogance. It’s a blast watching these longtime best friends, co-stars, and co-writers playing off each other again, provoking and cajoling, more than a quarter century after “ Good Will Hunting.” Damon stars as Sonny Vaccaro, the Nike recruiting expert who recognized the young North Carolina guard as a once-in-a-generation talent and pursued him relentlessly to keep him from Converse and Adidas cooler brands. The interactions within those mundane spaces make “Air” such a joy, starting with the reteaming of Affleck and Matt Damon. If you love movies about process, about people who are good at their jobs, then you’ll find yourself enthralled by the film’s many moments inside offices, conference rooms, and production labs. ![]() This probably makes “Air” sound like a two-hour sneaker commercial. Working from a sharp and snappy script by Alex Convery, Affleck tells the story of how Nike nabbed Jordan by creating a shoe that wasn’t just for him but of him-the representation of his soon-to-be iconic persona in a form that made us feel as if we, too, could reach such heights. With “Air,” it all comes together in an enormously entertaining package-one that’s old-fashioned but also alive and crowd-pleasing. His choice in cinematographer, longtime Martin Scorsese and Quentin Tarantino collaborator Robert Richardson, is a prime example. Affleck emphasizes strong writing, veteran performers and venerable behind-the-scenes craftspeople. His fifth feature is much in the same vein as the previous movies he’s helmed: “ Gone Baby Gone,” “ The Town,” “ Argo” (which earned him a best-picture Oscar) and “Live By Night.” He makes the kind of solid, mid-budget movies for grown-ups that are far too rare these days. ![]() So how do you tell a story to which we already know the outcome? That’s where the deceptive brilliance of Ben Affleck’s directing lies. And the Air Jordan, the shoe that gives the film its title, became the best-known and most-coveted sneaker of all time. Of course, we know from the start that the former Nike executive succeeded: Michael Jordan became a superstar and arguably the greatest basketball player in the history of the game. “Air” bristles with the infectious energy of the man at its center: Sonny Vaccaro, who’s hustling to make the deal of a lifetime. ![]() ![]() Skip ‘Shower of Stones’ but definitely get ‘Boom-Boom-Boom’. Although there are 17 tracks, several are theatrics and a few more are instrumental. ![]() I own the album, but I recommend people just buy the 3 or 4 tracks that appeal to them most. If you get the chance to see John 5 and the Creepers, who sometimes do shows at smaller venues near the bigger RZ shows, DO IT! It’s an experience you won’t forget. If you have John 5 as your lead guitar, why wouldn’t you let that guy rip? Almost nowhere on the album can we really enjoy the talents of one of the coolest players to watch on stage. Punishment, damned under blackened eyes.” It’s a nice end. The album closes with ‘Crow Killer Blues.’ Which is respectable and speaks of the evils in the world. ‘The Serenity of Witches is another good feeling instrumental. It digs into your brain and the vibration of his voice when brought down an octave will possess you! This is exactly what you want from RZ. ‘Boom-Boom-Boom’ is a hypnotic and sinister rise and fall of a singing chant. Skip it! ‘Shake Your Ass-Smoke Your Grass’ is my second favorite song on the album followed by the best song on this collection. ‘Shower of Stones’ sounds just like Primus and I didn’t like the Primus sound. This ain’t the same old monster.” Okey-dokey! And the rats come on home to pick your bones. I don’t know who he is but “Goodbye, Picasso. ‘The Satanic Rites of Blacula’ makes me curious. ‘The Much Talked of Metamorphosis’ is a nice instrumental. ‘18 th Century Cannibals, Excitable Morlocks and a one-way ticket on the Ghost Train’ is a fun little hoe down with lots of references that can be picked out of the lyrics. One, two, three, GO.” I’d love to see the view from the stage. He sings, “Alright everybody, on the count of three. ‘Shadow of the Cemetery Man’ will be performed live. The opening statement of ‘The Ballad of Sleazy Rider’ is thought provoking. King Freak dripping deeper in the red.” Let’s hope that isn’t happening to me the next time I’m in the audience. Loud, stern, heavy, and serious as he sings “King Freak carve an X into your head. It’s the most representative of what we expect from RZ. ‘The Triumph of the King Freak’ is next and it’s the anchor song of the album. I’m sure it will find a place on his next tour even if it’s not something he sings. The intro to the album is ‘Expanding the Head of Zed’, which is chilling with Gregorian style chant and the speech ending in the repeat of the word insanity. There are a few tracks and sound effects that will make the live show. He deserves the recognition and his body of work is respectable. LIKAEC reached #1 on US Billboard Rock Albums and I am excited and proud for RZ to have achieved this. That’s not necessarily a bad thing but the early teaser release of ‘The Triumph of King Freak’ had me believing we’d have a rockin’ good time with a heavy industrial sound and the sinister feel we’ve come to expect from RZ. I don’t know if Rob Zombie’s goal was to make an album we could sit around and ‘chill’ to, but ‘Lunar Injection…’ is good for exactly that. ![]() “Google has a very clever business model, and has the power to decide who gets visibility and who doesn't. ![]() “I realised that most of the money that I'm earning, I was actually giving back to Google for advertisements,” he recalls.

And it’s also really good to address climate change.”ĭuring his studies, Christian had created a website for comparing banking services if someone signed up for one of the services, he earned a commission. “I realised that planting trees is good for helping nature, it's good for helping people. “I realised this is the biggest challenge of humanity approaching us … and if nobody’s doing anything about it, then probably I should do something about it,” he says. It was also during these travels that he learned about climate change and saw the impact with his own eyes. “I saw the immense destruction that we’re doing to our planet, cutting down vast areas of rain forests for cattle farming or soy farming,” he says. He saw first-hand the poverty in which much of the world lives, and had to confront some ugly realities. He spent more than a year traveling, first in Nepal and then in South America during 20. The genesis of Ecosia came after Christian finished university in Germany. Among the many plaudits Ecosia has won, it was a finalist in the 2015 Social Innovation Tournament, run by the EIB Institute to help entrepreneurs tackles society’s problems. ![]() The company’s dedication to the environment, transparency, and ethics earned it certification in 2014 as Germany’s first B Corporation, which meets the highest standards of social and environmental performance, transparency and accountability. Two years ago, Christian and Tim Schumacher, Ecosia’s co-owner, gave away their shares in the company to the Purpose Foundation, creating a “steward ownership” structure to assure that Ecosia can never be sold and that no one, including Christian as the founder, can make a profit or receive dividends from the company. Ecosia sells the excess energy back to utility companies and uses the money to plant more trees The rest goes to green initiatives like Ecosia’s seven solar power plants, which produce more than 200 percent of the electricity it needs for searches. But there the similarities end.Įcosia employees, including Christian, take salaries, but at least 80 percent of profits go to the mission of tree-planting. Like Google, the largest search engine by far, it earns money by selling advertising linked to searches. It has more than 15 million users worldwide. And we have the resources to dream.”Įcosia is the largest search engine with headquarters in Europe. We are now around 80 people, and I think we're making enough revenue to not only sustain the business, but also grow it. “We're really planting millions of trees every month. “It took us a while to get to this point,” he says of his social enterprise, which is based in Berlin. Growing from a sense of responsibility and an idea, Christian Kroll created a search engine called Ecosia with the goal of using the earnings to plant trees and fight climate change.Ī little over a decade and about 120,000,000 trees planted later, he still sounds a little surprised at how well it worked. ![]() The current Hand-held scanner is a bit glitchy, it may or may not point to all the drops.

I think you get three pips per fuel pod, so you may need to use more than one pod to completely restore everything. Go to Engineering, load a fuel pod, and throw the Manual Program Charging Switch.
