![]() She herself could be The Protagonist who needs a guy who can appreciate a girl who's stronger, tougher, faster, and more aggressive than himself. Nothing would thrill him like getting plucked off the ground in an Effortless Amazonian Lift and carried away by her. For instance, the guy could be looking for a Violently Protective Girlfriend, the other half of his Battle Couple, or finds a woman who refuses to submit and challenges him very enticing, or is just entranced by her unbridled power. One that nails the characters motivations and mindsets in a refreshing but respectful and realistic way.This is the guy who finds a lady attractive because of her Amazon-ness. Matthew Vaughn transitioned what was originally planned as a Magneto origin story into a wonderfully balanced comic-book adaptation. Overall, First Class makes good with its new cast and setting. In fact, my favorite part of the film involves Charles & Erik recruiting, and subsequently training everyone. Everyone has their own arc and moment to shine. But even as much as these characters could have felt like throwaway characters, Vaughn managed to build them into the story in a creative way. No one was really asking for characters like Azazel, Riptide, Angel Salvadore, Havoc, Darwin, Banshee, or even more Mystique. Going back to the fun stuff though, the rest of the mutants are made up of mostly throw away heroes and villains. This film and Days of Future Past nail the relationship between those two more so than any X-Men film to date. But it uses it in a way that doesn't exploit that event, instead, gives a reason for there to be tension between Charles & Erik. First Class is set in the 60's, and uses the Cuban Missile Crisis as the film's climatic sequence. Something the new trilogy of X-Men films does incredibly well is use the decade the films are set in to enhance the overall story they were going for. Much like the film itself, McAvoy and Fassbender put their own spin on the characters, but bring enough similarity in their performance to understand the connective tissue between the pairs. Perhaps, some would say that the two of them have outdone their counterparts, Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan (I, myself being one of those people). I don't think we could have dreamed of a better pairing to take over the roles of Professor X and Magneto than James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender. Luckily, casting was something 20th Century Fox had no problem with. Setting an X-Men film in the 1960's meant having to recast all of the recurring characters. Vaughn does a wonderful job balancing the two. But there's something to be said for a mutant story that poses similar thought provoking questions and themes like before, while also making a fun adventure out of it. The original X-Men trilogy took itself very seriously and rightfully so. Up to this point, I liked most of the X-Men films, but even the people who have loved the series would say that there wasn't much "fun" to be had. In large part, the strengths of the film lie with Matthew Vaughn's direction. Even though the continuity has since been mingled with even more, this film did such a great job of resetting the universe without tarnishing what came before. There are a lot of great things about First Class, but I think the one that sticks out to me the most (even after years and tons of viewings) is that it works as both a reboot and prequel. ![]() Rating: PG-13 (Intense Sequences of Action|Brief Partial Nudity|Intense Sequences of Violence|Language|Some Sexual Content) However, a situation soon tears the friends apart. As the world teeters on the brink of a nuclear war, Charles and Erik with other mutants join forces to save humanity. Despite their vastly different backgrounds - Charles grew up with a wealthy family, while Erik lost his parents at Auschwitz - the two become close friends. In the early 1960s, during the height of the Cold War, a mutant named Charles Xavier (James McAvoy) meets a fellow mutant named Erik Lehnsherr (Michael Fassbender).

![]() ![]() All parking garages had horrible reviews on them. The first of my issues was I couldn't find a decent parking garage. I did thorough research beforehand to make sure it was all feasible, and it wasn’t. I didn’t even book yet, didn’t get the chance to. There were numerous issues I ran into when trying to plan out Toronto. I truly believe the universe has my back and anything that I have to FORCE to happen just isn't meant to be at this current point in time. Just like this trip couldn't happen for many years because I was met with many issues. But I was met with so many fucking issues it was unbelievable. Originally, I was supposed to go away for a full week, leave Niagara Falls on October 5th, and move over to Toronto. Therefore, I shifted my perspective and realized for whatever reason the universe/God/higher power/whatever out there did not want me in Toronto during this time. That’s how planning a vacation SHOULD BE. Planning and booking Niagara Falls was so easy and effortless. Planning and trying to make Toronto possible was stressful at best. So, this whole plan and trip started because I wanted to visit Niagara Falls, and I figured, like any person, if I'm going to Niagara Falls I might as well go to Toronto also. ![]() From is it foreigner and tourist-friendly, to currency, must-haves if you’re doing a road trip, price breakdown, and more! No bullshit, everything you’d ever need to know right here. Today I’m giving you a full detailed guide of my trip to Niagara Falls, Canada. It really felt like it wasn’t the time yet, so when things did work out well this time around, it felt right. The last time I planned to go, in May of 2022, I had just sustained a torn hamstring in my driver’s leg, the speakers in my car blew out, amongst other technical issues. I’ve been in physical therapy off and on for the last two years dealing with everything. I was unable to make it happen for a while due to the pandemic, but also because of all the injuries I’ve sustained. One day the idea was just there, and I’ve talked about it non-stop since. I’ve been wanting to do this solo road trip for over 3 years now. ![]() When you define the report, you must know the value of the EnumType property when you define the AX Enum Provider data source.

To the point I actually wanted to simply.get rid of them =( But they are so friggen adorable!Ģ) Use the grassey extention to the ranch for breeding chickens and growing food! Instead of having to monitor random slimes in the new area, i just tossed all my chickens, roosters, and carrot patches in that area so I didnt have to keep food plots in the main ranch area. They make so much money the game got really boring, really quickly. If you find them, yay! Welcome to the end of the fun. Now my personal favs! These will break the game, sorry =(ġ) Honey + explodey = I have too much money to spend now. When you do happen to uhm.get knocked out! You will lose all the items you had in your cannon. Tip #8) We have all done it, tried to swim in the ocean or tried to use our jetpacks to reach that out of reach island, and well, you wake up back at the ranch. If a Tar somehow does form or worse, finds your ranch, the roofs and high walls will either keep them caged until you can deal with them, or keep them OUT of your pens so they do not eat your slimes. Tip #7) Air roofs are also amazing! Build them, and high walls. HOWEVER they will also fight over food, get in the way of each other eating food, which can lead to some starvation issues and you can safely with no issues only keep 3-4 per pen. Tip #6) Largos are amazing! They produce two kinds of plorts per food consumed and with the right mixes can make you very rich very quick. Also you will need the meat to feed to a kitty largo that is covering up a fast travel telepad. You will need the meat to feed certain slimes if you do not intend to fill your ranch with largo hybrids. Tip #5) Make a coop early on and get two Roosters with a mix of hens. This may be a bug however, but its something to bear in mind if you do not have the money to make proper screened walls. HOWEVER if !.with another type of plort, they lose their poof! When in sunlight. At night ! Slimes appear! They produce some very lucrative plorts BUT! They require a special corral to house them with the upgraded Screen walls because when the light hits them, they poof. Tip #4) Early on in the game you have access to mostly pink and blue slimes. Tip #3) If you immerse either by soaking with water from your cannon(which you can suck up from any source of water) or simply by tossing into the ocean, any tar beast, they will die. If they accidentally eat any other type of plort, they will morph into a Tar beast who can and will quickly consume everything around it, multiply and ruin a perfectly running farm if you are not quick about dealing with them, which leads too. IE if you have a pink/kitty largo, they make kitty/pink plorts. ![]() Tip #2) Be weary of accidentally creating a "Tar" Monster! A Tar is created when a "Largo" or a large slime which is an amalgam of two different slimes, eats a "plort" not created by the innate amalgam slimes. ![]() Again, this is intended by design because being able to farm these lil guys would completely ruin the farm aspect. ![]() You can throw a single, or if you are lucky multiple fruits at them which immediatly cause them to uhm.gift you with their "plort" then blast off into space or in most cases a wall to inevitably."poof". IF you see a slime with a bloody nose or frowny upset face! FEED THEM! They are starving and DYING! Get them food! If you have to, segregate them from everything and feed them until they start to smile again. Tip #0) Is there a level zero? There is now a level zero. So! Some tips and tricks but BE WARNED!

The planted grafts survived and produced Alphonso mangoes that tasted very different from mangoes of the Ratnagiri region. Growers uprooted existing trees of other species that had grown in cracks on the laterite rock and planted Alphonso grafts in its place. As Devgad is majorly hard laterite rock below (termed as jambha dagad locally), it was difficult to plant the grafts. In the early 90’s, growers brought grafts from Ratnagiri to Devgad for experimentation. The distinctiveness comes from the geographical conditions of Devgad as the same is not observed in other varieties grown elsewhere. The Devgad Alphonso gained distinctiveness and favorable characteristics like the pleasant fruity smell, no fiber, extremely aromatic and sweet taste, becoming popular among buyers. From Goa, the Alphonso mango traveled to different places like Ratnagiri, other Konkan region and southern side of India as well. Our aim is to bring alive the many stories that make India and get our readers access to the best research and work being done on the subject.The Alphonso mango is a foreign fruit that came to India through Goa along with Alfonso De Albuquerque, the Portuguese explorer and military strategist who led many Portuguese invasions in the 1600s. Now that is quite a treat! – ABOUT LIVE HISTORY INDIA Live History India is a first of its kind digital platform aimed at helping you Rediscover the many facets and layers of India’s great history and cultural legacy. The US famously struck a trade deal with India in 2007, for the export of these mangoes in exchange for their Harley Davidson bikes. ![]() Today, Alphonso mangoes are still very popular and exported around the world. Interestingly, Alphonso mangoes were named after Alfonso de Albuquerque (1453-1515 CE), the man who conquered Goa, usurping it from the Bijapur Sultanate in 1510 CE and establishing a vast Portuguese maritime empire that stretched from Hormuz in Oman to Java and Sumatra He was even conferred the title of the ‘ Duke of Goa’ by the Portuguese kings, owing to his exploits. While Alphonso mango is grown across Western India, as per popular belief, the one from Ratnagiri in Maharashtra is considered to be of the best quality.Īlfonso de Albuquerque | Wikimedia Commons The grafting activity soon extended to other Portuguese-controlled areas like Ratnagiri and Karwar, with the cultivation of Alphonso mangoes spreading to these regions. While many of these varieties are now lost, the Alphonso thrives in popularity. ![]() ![]() According to Dr Nene, it were the Jesuit priests who first began experimenting and grafting on Mango plants in Goa between 15 CE.ĭuring this time, a large variety of fruits emerged and they were distinguished by their Portuguese names like Alphonso, Peres, Rebello, Fernandina, Phillipina, Peres, Antonio and others. However, when the Portuguese began exporting mangoes to Europe, they wanted one that could be served on the table, basically firmer varieties of mangoes that could be sent back home. Indians preferred those varieties, with their soft pulp, that could be squeezed by hand and sucked out. As per Dr Nene, the traditional varieties of mangoes in India were what he called ‘s ucking’ type of mangoes. There are some very interesting perspectives shared by the renowned Agricultural Scientist Dr YL Nene in the research paper ‘ Mango through Millennia ,’ published in The Journal of Asian Agri-History 2001. Sadly, due to the lack of academic research, we know very little about the early history of Alphonso mangoes. Pulp of an Alphonso Mango | Flickr Creative Commons |
