When amphetamine addiction does take place, some of the signs and symptoms include: While amphetamine addiction may still occur in someone who first started out using the drug medically, it’s much less likely to occur when used as prescribed. Potential reasons for this disparity include dose differences, as well as differing neurological factors in teens with and without ADHD. On the other hand, children and teens who used amphetamine as prescribed for ADHD were at a lower risk of developing substance abuse issues as they got older. Amphetamine addiction is well-researched, showing regular high dose use gradually increases addictive behavior in individuals who self-administer the drug. Chronically high levels of dopamine lead to the overactivation of a dopamine pathway in the brain linked to addiction. Upon reaching the brain, it causes neurotransmitter dopamine release. Signs and Symptoms of Amphetamine AddictionĪs a stimulant, the effects of amphetamines are similar to cocaine and methamphetamine. While amphetamines are prescribed in cases of severe ADHD to induce and promote focus, they can cause bouts of panic and severe anxiety in teens inclined towards anxious symptoms and anxiety disorders, and amphetamine addiction can exacerbate the symptoms of depression as a result of the high comedown and subsequent withdrawal issues. Chronic use can lead to amphetamine addiction, and some research indicates amphetamines have long-term side effects on the brain’s cognitive and memory abilities, as well as other organs such as kidneys and the liver. When not sold in pill form, some amphetamines are cut and mixed as white powders with other chemicals, including cheaper, less potent stimulants like caffeine, and other substances.ĭepending on the dose and individual sensitivity, Amphetamines are powerful stimulants that pose many use and abuse dangers, and more importantly, heart health risks. There are many other addictive prescription stimulants, including Ritalin/Concerta (methylphenidate) and Dexedrine (dextroamphetamine). However, amphetamines are also sold and distributed illegally for athletic performance enhancements, recreational use, and as a “study drug”. Amphetamines are prescription drugs, meaning they can only legally be purchased for the treatment of these conditions and select other cases. At Visions Treatment Centers, teens struggling with amphetamine addiction and mental disorders are treated via a multipronged approach combining addiction recovery with first-line medication, various therapies, and alternative treatments.Īmphetamines are a class of drugs used in the treatment of narcolepsy, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and, in select cases, asthma and hypertension.

Bloon tower defence9/4/2023 Bloons TD Battles where PvP is the primary focus the primary modes are Assault and Defensive.Bloons Monkey City, a tower-defense city-simulator combo with has elements of Facebook games where Player Versus Player is possible.Three other spin-offs of this series exist: It even got its own sequel and a mobile remake thereof! The basic goal is to pop a set number of bloons in each level, upgrading along the way to beat levels with increasingly strong Bloon formations. This takes the form of a top-down aerial shooter starring the titular monkey from the BTD series, inspired by Raiden X. However, it became so much more popular that it got its own spin-off, Bloons Super Monkey. It started off as a spin-off of the lesser-known Bloons, a series of aim-and-power-meter puzzle games with many player-designed maps. So far the series has 6 main installments. Though starting out with a simplified design palette, later installments of the series have evolved to include a great deal of complexity in both art and gameplay mechanics. All of the preceding is included absolutely nowhere in the game's design, and is merely a flavorful fantasy explaining why players seem to care so much about using monkeys to pop balloons.īloons Tower Defense (or BTD as it's abbreviated) is an ongoing Tower Defense series by Ninja Kiwi where monkeys (and other weapons) are used to pop a seemingly endless line of overly determined balloons of varying shapes, sizes, and speed.

Tips for merchants of kaidan switch9/3/2023 The key to success is sourcing stock at a low price and then taking it to another location where those goods are in demand and sell at the most profit. Initially, I didn’t think anything of it but then I realised that this wasn’t the true size of the world and there were even more locations on the map. The map view of Kaidan that you are presented with might seem overwhelming at the beginning of the game. Set in a fictitious fantasy world in the year 1220, you will spend most of your time travelling to the many different towns, cities and remote villages in search for cheap stock to buy and subsequently sell at a tidy profit. To rise up the ranks in the merchant’s guild you have to complete specific tasks. These options are great to have and offer greater flexibility in how you what to play the game. These include a set time limit of one or five years in game time, or achieving a final fortune of 1000000 coins. The other three scenarios are shorter and a lot quicker to play through if you wanted a quicker conclusion to your gameplay. The aim of the campaign is to rise up the ranks and eventually avenge your father’s death at the hands of Van Talood.Īs I will talk more on later, this campaign is very long and full on. Your story starts as you take on a fake name to hide your true identity and sell your family ring to pay for your first horse drawn cart to follow in your father’s footsteps as a merchant. It’s best to plan your journeys as travel times vary between locations and there are toll bridges that can eat into your profits. There are many places to visit in Kaidan. Conveniently Talodd took over the rest of the business and left you with nothing but the family ring that you had on your person. Talodd framed his father who was found guilty of being a traitor and subsequently hanged. The main campaign sees you taking the role of Ollivean De Calinn, the son of a successful merchant who was brutally betrayed by his business partner, Van Talodd.

Tac inspireme sweet inspirations9/3/2023 Wexler had a knack for importing southern soul sounds to New York (frequently by bringing bands north to Atlantic's studios) but he sent the Sweet Inspirations directly to the source in Muscle Shoals, Alabama as well as Memphis, Tennessee. (Keeping it all in the family, Dee Dee Warwick cut "Alfie" even before Dionne.) Recorded at the group's second solo session and included on sophomore LP What the World Needs Now Is Love, it became the group's first B-side, supporting "Why (Am I Treated So Bad)." In addition to the impassioned title track, the LP also featured a beautiful reading of "Alfie," most famously recorded by Cissy's niece Dionne. Bert Berns, a master of desperation in song, co-wrote "I Don't Want to Go on Without You" with Wexler, first recorded by The Drifters and also by Patti LaBelle and the Bluebelles. Wexler, Dowd, and the producers who followed them consistently supplied the Sweet Inspirations with songs they could plumb for raw emotion. They knew how to use their voices in the manner of a gospel choir. What's most immediately evident on these 66 tracks is the unusually supple sound for a foursome. At Atlantic, they would transform songs from Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman, The Bee Gees, Carole King, and Burt Bacharach and Hal David from pure pop into deep soul. All of those genres would figure prominently in the Sweet Inspirations' discography. Tellingly, the three songs included one pop classic ("Let It Be Me"), a wrenching blues from a gospel legend (Pops Staples' "Why Am I Treated So Bad," inspired by the brave students of the Little Rock 9 who fought against segregation), and a romantic R&B staple (Roosevelt Jamison's "That's How Strong My Love Is," best known in its Atlantic recording by Otis Redding). The label's Jerry Wexler ushered the quartet into Atlantic's New York studios in April 1967 with producers Tom Dowd and Tommy Cogbill for their debut session. The classic, pre-"Elvis years" Sweet Inspirations recording line-up of Cissy Houston, Sylvia Shemwell, Myrna Smith, and Estelle Brown evolved from the Drinkard Singers/Gospelaires families that also famously included Dionne and Dee Dee Warwick (Houston's nieces) and Atlantic vocalist Judy Clay (Shemwell's sister). Let It Be Me: The Atlantic Recordings (1967-1970) brings together 66 recordings, encompassing five albums ( The Sweet Inspirations Songs of Faith and Inspiration What the World Needs Now Is Love Sweets for My Sweet and Sweet, Sweet Soul), non-LP singles, and outtakes. The Sweet Inspirations' journey with the label has just been collected on a new 3-CD anthology from Cherry Red's SoulMusic Records imprint. But Atlantic rightfully believed that these talented singers didn't have to remain ten feet from stardom. Today, the vocal quartet might be best-remembered as Elvis Presley's preferred onstage backup group, but The King was just one of a staggering number of artists they supported - including the aforementioned artists and even Jimi Hendrix. Lesser-known but no less significant were The Sweet Inspirations. Aretha Franklin, Dusty Springfield, Solomon Burke, and Wilson Pickett were just a handful of the artists there who defined the sound of soul music. In its 1960s heyday, Atlantic Records was the destination for deeply-felt soul. Moses fasted 80 days9/3/2023 God sent Prophet NuH (Noah) to these people and ordered him to warn them against a severe torture that would befall them if they do not return to Islam. When Satan came again, to a later generation, he ordered the people to worship these statues and told them falsely that their ancestors had worshipped these statues too. The statues had become very common among the people. Ignorance had spread widely and many tribulations had occurred among the people. After a long period of time Satan reappeared. The people responded to the whispers of the devil and built these statues to remember and honor these five good men. After their death, Satan came to the people in the shape of a man and told them to build statues of these five men. They were Wadd, Suwâ`, Yaghûth, Ya`ûq, and Nasr. (wa qâlû lâ tadharunna ‘âlihatakum wa lâ tadharunna waddan wa lâ suwâ`an wa lâ yaghûtha wa ya`ûqa wa nasrâ) There were five pious people whose names are mentioned in Surat NuH, verse 23: See: Islam is the religion of all the Prophets Prophet NuH NoahĪfter the death of Prophet Enoch (Idris) several events occurred over time that led humans to commit blasphemy for the first time. » The Prophet said this because Moses was Muslim as all the prophets, and we are more deserving of rejoicing his victory. Which means: « We have more priority over Moses than you. He justified the reason for fasting that day by saying, » and told his followers to fast the 10th of MuHarram as well. Then the Prophet said, « I am the one to fast that day. Noah and Moses fasted that day as an indication of their thankfulness to God. It was also the day the ark of Prophet Noah landed on Mount Al-Judiyy. The Prophet asked, « Why are you fasting this day? » They said this was the day when God rescued Prophet Moses and the Children of Israel from Pharaoh who drowned as well on that day. The Prophet realized that they were fasting the 10th day of MuHarram. Imam AHmad narrated in the Musnad (his book of Hadîth) through the route of Abu Hurayrah that once the Prophet passed by a group of Jews in Madinah. May the elevation in degree and preservation of his community of what he fears for it, be granted to our master Muhammad Al-‘Amin, the Honest One, who called for following Islam, the religion of truth, the religion of all the Prophets: of the First, Adam, to the last Muḥammad. Whatever you imagine, God is different from that. Nothing resembles Him in anyway and He hears and sees everything without organs. Praise be to God the Creator of the world, the One Who exists without beginning, without end, without location, without a "how" and Who does not depend on time. The story of Prophet NuH Noah’s Ark and Deluge Gramps hassan9/3/2023 With his decent star weight and Independent Action passive, First Hassan can readily exploit any additional help. These Buster supports also typically provide the critical stars and NP generation First Hassan cannot consistently provide for himself. Buster Synergyįirst Hassan’s compatibility with the more commonly available Buster supports is highly useful for compensating for his Assassin-class damage modifiers. First Hassan will ensure, by himself if need be, that Rider bosses will bite the dust. Notably, Rider bosses are often difficult enemies due to their strength against the common Caster supports. His own BBBAQ deck performs very well in solo situations and Masters can decide whether to emphasize charging his NP bar, collecting an assortment of critical stars, or simply Buster Brave Chaining the enemy into oblivion. The King Hassan’s kit is well suited for holding the line through his numerous defensive measures. The resulting chance to trigger the Instant Death on powerful enemies with First Hassan’s NP is thus around as low as getting a 4* Servant on rate up. It does not trigger reliably enough to count on and may even interrupt an attack sequence meant for generating NP gauge.Īfter all, the Instant Death rate shown on the Servant’s NP or skills page has to be weighted against the enemy’s Instant Death Chance which ranges from 100% on common weak enemies (no hindrances) to a measly 1% or lower on any actually strong boss or Servant. It triggers too randomly and the percentages show a far rosier picture than what happens in practice. Rather than a considering it a strength or weakness, this is simply an added extra on First Hassan’s kit. The First Hassan’s relation to death features prominently in his 2 Instant Death effects: His basic attacks may randomly inflict the Instant Death condition on an enemy, or his NP can inflict Instant Death at much higher odds. Regardless, the First Hassan is an impressive non-standard Assassin damage-dealer that especially flourishes in Solo situations or in Buster-oriented Servant rosters. Furthermore, while his generation stats are impressive, his triple Buster card deck may make his performance inconsistent if the right card chains aren’t drawn. An in-built damage modifier of 0.9x reduces the effectiveness of relying on the First Hassan as the primary damage-dealer, despite that ostensibly being his specialty. Sadly, the Assassin class isn’t well equipped to support such an offense-oriented kit. As a result, his solo potential is immense. Meanwhile, defensively the Old Man of the Mountain is one of the sturdiest Servants around due to an incredible Guts of up to 5000 HP, nearly impenetrable Debuff Resistance, a strong Defense Up, and self healing. With a combination of Buster and Attack buffs, he can unleash impressive damage for an Assassin through either his NP or a Buster Brave Chain. In that regard, the Old Man of the Mountain impresses with a variety of tools to support his onslaught. With his BBBAQ deck and single target Buster Noble Phantasm, the Old Man of the Mountain functions primarily as a selfish Buster damage-dealer. Eschewing the standard Assassin role, the first of the Hassan wields a Buster-based loadout any Berserker would be proud of. When the bell of evening tolls thy name, prepare to give up thy head. I am the Old Man of the Mountain, the First Hassan-i Sabbah.” “From the mountain abyss, I come, and only death do I bring. Bill boss double fingers9/3/2023 Nevertheless, these inhuman methods do not improve standards and only add to the medical costs.īill Boss grows increasingly demented as he struggles to keep his prisoners in line.īill works closely with his accountant Dwight Butler and assistant Daisy who he abuses both verbally and sexually, even in the presence of Dwight. The poor statistics produced by his prison and a lack of respect from the prisoners in it encourages Bill to come up with crueler punishments, including water-boarding a prisoner with boiling water and castrating a particularly rebellious prisoner designated Inmate 297 using nothing but a knife and blowtorch before having the testicles for lunch. Due to a mix of mental instability and the extreme pressures brought onto him by his job, Bill brutalizes his prisoners who misbehave and often resorts to cruel punishments such as breaking Inmate 178's arm for stabbing a prison guard. These experiences likely molded his psychological profile extensively, particularly his extreme paranoia and narcissistic wish for total respect, which he ties in with the image of his masculinity, which he builds up with big guns, hex fertility nostrums, overly dramaturgical speech that is peppered with profanities, the emasculation of other men, and an overcharged sex drive.īill Boss is the sadistic, chauvinistic and ruthless warden of George H.W. His interactions with the prisoners also suggest that he was subject to sexual abuse by multiple grown men in his childhood, which caused him to develop an intense fear of being raped. He identifies as Christian, specifically Roman Catholic, but has a very twisted interpretation of it, reciting a table prayer before he eats a pair of human testicles and referencing Exodus 21 : 23-25 in his quote about revenge torture, "Eye for an eye, tooth for tooth, times one hundred". His status as a "mere German-American", rather than a born-and-raised American appears to bother him greatly and is seemingly the root cause for his jingoistic patriotism. Bill eventually moved to the southern United States and became a naturalized citizen. According to Bill, said grandfather took it to himself to castrate each male pig personally, supposedly neutering thousands of them in his lifetime. Bill's ancestral home is in Schweinfurt, Bavaria, where he states his grandfather operated a pig farm. AuthorWrite something about yourself. No need to be fancy, just an overview. ArchivesCategories |
