![]() ![]() How could a single man, in the short span of his life, manage to comprehend and develop the universal system of nature and art? Whereas the numerous scientific community of La Crusca spent forty years constituting its vocabulary, and whereas our French Academicians had labored for sixty years on their dictionary, before producing its first editon! Yet what is the dictionary of a language? What is a lexicon, even executed as well as it can be? A precise collection of the articles to be filled in by an encyclopedic and analytical dictionary. When one considers the immense material for an encyclopedia, the only thing one perceives distinctly is that it cannot be the work of a single man. They shall have as sole reply this passage from Chancellor Bacon, which seems to address them specifically: De impossibilitate itá flatuo et omnia possibilia et praestabilia esse censenda quae ab aliquibus perfici possunt, licét non á quibusvis et quae á multis conjunctim, licét non ab uno et quae in successione saeculorum, licét non eodem aevo et denique quae multorum curâ et sumptf, licét non opibus et industriâ singulorum. See the most recent edition of the Dictionnaire de Trévoux, article Encyclopedia. For this reason some persons accustomed to judge the possibilities of an enterprise by the limited resources they recognize in themselves have pronounced that we will never bring ours to completion. It would have been difficult to propose a more extensive object than covering everything related to human curiosity, duty, needs, and pleasures. Indeed, the purpose of an encyclopedia is to collect knowledge disseminated around the globe to set forth its general system to the men with whom we live, and transmit it to those who will come after us, so that the work of preceding centuries will not become useless to the centuries to come and so that our offspring, becoming better instructed, will at the same time become more virtuous and happy, and that we should not die without having rendered a service to the human race. This word signifies chain of knowledge it is composed of the Greek preposition ἐν, in, and the nouns κύκλος, circle, and παιδεία, knowledge.

This feeder is on the high end of the price spectrum, but if pesky squirrels are a problem for you, this feeder claims to solve that problem. The top and bottom of the feeder both pop off for easy filling and cleaning. Its plastic construction is a bit more easily damaged than a metal model, so that may be something you want to take into consideration. While many finch feeders are meant for thistle only, this model has ports that can dispense larger seeds, like sunflower chips or kernels often included in a pre-mixed finch blend.įinches will only be able to feed at the six feeding stations, so if you’re expecting more than six finches at your feeder at once, you may want to take that into consideration.Ī relatively inexpensive feeder, it can be easily replaced if it gets worn from the weather or damaged by birds and squirrels over time. Measuring 15 inches tall and 3.15 inches in diameter, these feeders hold a suitable amount of food. This Ointo Garden tube feeder includes six holes and perches for feeding. Last update on / Affiliate links / Images from Amazon Product Advertising API Best Finch Feeder Models Ointo Garden Tube Bird Feeder Some just have slits along the sides, whereas others are made of metal or fabric mesh that allows birds to pick out seeds from any place along the feeder. Therefore, a thistle feeder can provide finches with their own safe space.įinch feeders often come in tube shapes, with tiny feeding openings that mean only small beaks can go in, and only small seeds can come out. Still, it’s not a favorite of the larger birds that can dominate a feeder. A typical tray feeder frequented by larger songbirds can be challenging for finches to access.įinches and other smaller varieties of birds like chickadees, towhees, and buntings love thistle. However, finches can be out-competed by larger backyard garden birds, so a feeder intended for finches might be the right choice, depending on what types of birds are in your backyard. As a bird enthusiast, sustainability is likely an important factor to you, and as long as you’ve got the right seeds, birds should eventually find their way to it. You could potentially use a bird feeder you already have but aren’t currently using. If you’ve got your finch blend or thistle seed ready to go, you just need the right feeder to put it in. If yours is the former, you’ll want to buy pure thistle seed with no added products. Some seed feeders only have holes big enough for tiny thistle seeds to fit through, while others have sufficiently large ports for sunflower kernels. ![]() If you already have a finch feeder ready to go, consider its features before you buy bird seed. Bird seed manufacturer Kaytee leaves out canary seed in its Waste Free Finch Blend. Vendors will occasionally include canary seed in finch blends, but if you’re mixing your bird seed, some people suggest skipping canary seed, as sparrows and cowbirds enjoy it more than finches do. ![]() Finches may be able to open black oil sunflower seeds, but striped sunflower seed shells are too thick for them to crack. Finch blends often contain hulled sunflower kernels/chips. You can purchase it on its own or in a combination mix usually marketed as a finch blend. ![]() Whatever you call it, this seed is the top food every bird watcher wanting to attract beautiful finches should know. This tiny seed comes from the African yellow daisy, and while it may share the name, it is not related to the thistle plant.

Additionally, some of the deadly substances that were allegedly used in the murders were found at his house. However, other evidence that was admissible included witnesses who heard Majors refer to elderly patients as "a waste" and by various derogatory terms. Some of the witnesses testified that he hated elderly people, and that he believed that they "should be gassed".Ī judge ruled that the supervisory study that showed the number of deaths rose during the duration of Majors' employment at the hospital was inadmissible as evidence because Majors was only being tried for six murders. A total of 79 witnesses were called to the stand at his trial. The license of Majors to practice nursing was suspended in 1995, leading to termination of his employment, and the death rate at the hospital dropped to prior levels.Īfter the state of Indiana launched a criminal investigation, Majors was arrested in December 1997. He was believed to be injecting potassium chloride as his murder weapon. Suspicion in reference to the large number of deaths landed on Majors in part because of his behaviors and attitudes, and a supervisory study that determined that nearly twice as many patients died when Majors was on duty than with any other nurses.Īdditionally, Majors was the only nurse present at the deaths of seven patients. Prior to the time when Majors began employment at the hospital, an average of around 26 patients died annually.Īfter Majors started working at the facility, however, this rate skyrocketed to more than 100 per year, with nearly one out of every three patients admitted to the hospital dying. Suspicion first developed when a large number of deaths began occurring at Vermillion County Hospital, where Majors worked. It was reported that he murdered patients who were demanding, whiny, or disproportionately added to his work load. Though he was only tried for six murders, he is believed to have committed as many as 130 between 19, the period of time for which he was employed by the hospital where the deaths occurred, and for which he was investigated. Orville Lynn Majors (born 24 April 1961) is a former licensed practical nurse from Clinton, Indiana who was convicted of murdering his patients.

But really, moving fast is not a bad thing, and I am excited to see Flash. There’s been a lot of buzz about Flash lately, as he’s going to be added as a character in Arrow. So whatever it is you are trying to do, haste lets you do more, faster. Usually, you see effects that include increased dodge ability, the ability to get in more actions in less time, and of course moving faster. The ability to move faster has a lot of applications. However, of all of these sorts of spells, If I had to pick one, it would be haste. Spells to increase strength, defenses, and just about everything you can think of. There are all sorts of spells to increase yourself and your own power. The best summon to have is, it seems, yourself. Combined with his other Ninjutsu, he can do all sorts of things with them. They are defense, distraction, they help him channel energy, buy time, and fight. He maybe creates more mirror images (Shadow Clones for him) than are really practical, but they get the job done. For the wizard on the go, being able to summon what you need to you is a good ability.įor the best example of this, there’s no one better than Naruto. The range on the spell is incredibly useful, too – remember in Goblet of Fire, when Harry summons his Firebolt, from way inside the castle? Handy trick, that. And because it works off of your mental image and meaning of the item you name, it can accomplish a lot for very little. Able to call to you whatever item you ask for, Accio is kind of just straight-forward useful. There are various summoning and telekinetic powers out there, but none work quite as well as Accio in the Harry Potter series. Yes, I have used this to teleport directly into a treasure room before. Having the DM reveal a whole dungeon to me, and have me move myself into the best spot in the place? Priceless. On a bad roll, things go poorly on a 20, though, I get to see everything in the area – and teleport everyone around me to a place of my choice. I am currently playing in a campaign where I have a teleporting character (of course), but the DM made teleporting dangerous – I roll on a table each time I teleport. If you don’t believe me, then try getting your hands on the ability to scry in a D&D game. You might have to focus through an implement (crystal ball), or might not have full control of it, but scrying is really powerful. Higher-end scrying is more like Dominic Deegan, able to see thing happening anywhere, able to see the past, able to see the future. Lower-end scrying would let you do things like see through illusions, find something closeby, or otherwise see something beyond normal perception. ![]() If knowledge is power – and School House Rock always said it was – then a good divination can get you all sorts of power. Scrying, or other sorts of divination, are a common sort of spell with many manifestations. Long range teleportation, like Manifold can use in Avengers, is the sort of middle-ground teleporting that deserves a solid place in any spellbook. Lower levels of teleportation are shown in spells like Dimension Door, or Blink, which can be used for closer-range movement and escape, more like Nightcrawler. The most powerful representation of teleporting would have to be Hiro Nakamura in Heroes, who can move in both time and space – can even stop time in doing so. Kind games leave teleport spots at the end of dungeons, so you don’t have to walk back out, after all. Are any of these sorts of skills, abilities, powers, or spells needed when you can teleport? With teleporting, you can avoid hazards, get in to place, or get out of a tight spot. Things like climbing, moving things, strength and acrobatics. There are a lot of tasks that are often accomplished by magic in worlds that have magic. So instead of this just being a personal choice about how good teleporting is, let me convince you on the inclusion of a good teleport spell on the list. If you know me, or read my recent blog post about Nightcrawler, you know I love teleporting. So maybe it’s better to say, these are the tops of spell types, the best for use, for your gaming wizard or fictional mage of choice! Teleport It’s a plot-changer, game-breaker, and is a bit too much. The king of these spells is the Wish spell, from D&D – basically, it does what all these spells do, and just about anything else. Are almost too powerful for regular sorts of use. There are some spells, of course, that are a bit much. ![]() One of the most famous is the Dancing House (Nationale-Nederlanden building) in Prague, Czech Republic.

Escher’s act!Īndrew Lipson is an obvious admirer of M.C. Many of these depicted “impossible” buildings and architecture, with some better known examples shown above.Įven The Simpsons have gotten in on M.C. Escher was widely known for his curious paintings and drawings that played with perspective in unusual ways, yet still conformed to mathematical theories. A clever mix of inorganic stone and organic greenery softens the sever outlines of the structure while adding a note of whimsy. Here is another of Athem’s buildings, this one after completion. The so-called Melting Building, created by artist Peter Delavie for France’s Athem Co., is actually made from tarpaulins draped over the sides of a Paris building under construction. Modern architects often use traditional forms and styles as a starting point, then warp them to create something new that – either amusingly or disturbingly – puts a new twist on what we expect to see. Their influence was (and is) felt around the globe, as seen in the floor of Saltas cathedral in Argentina (above left) and the painted floor of Tokyo’s Sunshine City shopping center (above right). The Middle Ages and the Renaissance saw a rebirth of science, art and design as epitomized in the magnificent paintings of Leonardo da Vinci and Michaelangelo. Slightly wider corner columns, pillars that curve inwards and a floor that is 6 cm (2.4 inches) higher at its center all conspire to give the Parthenon an enduring beauty that is evident even in its current state.Īrchitects of the Classic Era worked mainly in stone, and the ancient Romans applied newly discovered knowledge of optics and perspective to create the amazing optical illusion mosaic floors shown above. ![]() Curiously, the many subtle techniques (called entasis) used by the Parthenon’s architects don’t make the structure look like something it isn’t – instead, they correct the viewer’s perceptions so that the temple looks as it should. The use of optical illusions in architecture isn’t new in fact one of the most outstanding examples is the Parthenon in Athens, Greece, constructed over 25 centuries ago. In effect, our own eyes are being used against us – and nobody’s complaining about the results! As architects struggle to balance aesthetic appeal with practical considerations, many are finding the best way to create bold, interesting, even mind-bending features is through the use of optical illusions. |
