![]() The common name, spurge, comes from the French, espurge, and the Latin, exurgare, meaning to purge out. But that of Euphorbus is perdurable, perennial, nor can it ever be destroyed)'. Linnaeus wrote in 1737: ' Ubi nam Musae statua? Periit, evanuit! Euphorbii autem perdurat, perenat, nec unquam destrui protest (Where now is the statue of Musa? It has perished, vanished. Linnaeus was impressed by the contrast between fame, which rests on the apparent endurance of bronze, and that fame, which is associated with the name of a plant. Euphorbus is only remembered by his association with a plant from 'distant Africa '. Euphorbus was not as distinguished a physican as his brother, Antonus Musa, who was rewarded for his services by the erection of a bronze statue. Linnaeus established the genus, commemorating Euphorbus, the (1st century) physician to King Juba II of Mauritania, and who is thought to have used plants, such as euphorbias, medicinally. Derivation of name and historical aspects The milky latex (often poisonous) produced when the plant is damaged, makes them easily recognizable.Ĭarter & Eggli (1997) list 850 succulent Euphorbia names 723 of these are distributed only in Africa and Madagascar 188 are distributed in South Africa where they are widespread and occur in different habitats from deserts to forests. ![]() Succulent species are mostly confined to Africa and Madagascar, where many species with prominent thorns or spines resemble one another and are often confused with the cacti of North and South America. Species of Euphorbia can be flat, prostrate weeds found in gardens everywhere, perennial herbs chiefly from Europe, North America and Asia, or majestic trees characteristic of the dry parts of eastern and southern Africa. For more see links included there.Įuphorbia represents one of the largest and most diverse genera of flowering plants in the world, with ± 2 000 species, and with the exception of the polar regions, is present in almost every part of the world. Just a few of the many South African species are illustrated below. Capsules usually consist of three cells the cells separate at maturity from a persistent axis, often freeing the seeds with great force. Curiously there is never more than one female flower in a cyathium, whereas the male flowers are always numerous. The flowers are unisexual, with the male flower reduced to a single stamen on its own pedicel and the pistillate flower on its own pedicel. The individual flowers, set within a cyathium, which is the basic unit of the inflorescence of Euphorbia, are surrounded by a number of bracts which form a unique floral envelope or involucre. In some species these persistent peduncles become sharpened at the tip and become true spines. ![]() Many species produce peduncles (inflorescence stalks) which persist after the cyathia (cup-shaped structures) and capsules have withered. Stipules are usually present, often modified into prickles and spines. Leaves in the succulent species are usually reduced or deciduous. ![]() The plants may be herbs, shrublets, shrubs or trees, herbaceous, woody or succulent, but are always characterized by conspicuous milky latex.

![]() Avalugg, as well as its pre-evolution Bergmite, was added to the Mineral Egg Group in Generation VIII after previously only being in the Monster Egg Group.Avalugg has the highest Defense stat of all Ice-type Pokémon.Both Pokémon are known as the Iceberg Pokémon. Avalugg and Regice share the same category.Italic indicates an evolved or alternate form of this Pokémon receives STAB from this move.īreeding To see the Egg Moves that Avalugg can learn, refer to Bergmite. Max Raid Battle: Dusty Bowl, Giant's Cap, Hammerlocke Hills, Stony Wildernessīold indicates this Pokémon receives STAB from this move. Sturdy, Avalugg's Hidden Ability allows Avalugg to hold onto one health point.Īvalugg evolves from Bergmite at level 37. Ice Body allows Avalugg to gradually heal itself each turn during Hail. Own Tempo prevents Avalugg from being confused. For this reason, they will often move around mountains over the course of the day, following the shade.Īn Avalugg's body is as hard as steel, providing Avalugg with high endurance as long as they are not exposed under prolonged sunlight.Īvalugg gains the abilities Own Tempo, Ice Body, and Sturdy. If they stay in direct sunlight for too long, their rocky bodies will begin to retain heat and melt their icy exteriors. Hisuian Avalugg take advantage of mountain shade in order to keep away from the sun. Medieval Hisuian travelers used to follow in the wakes of these Pokémon, taking advantage of the paths they cleared. They shatter boulders and icefalls obstructing their paths with ease. Tougher than steel, these rocky growths sprout from their lower jaws and are covered in reinforced ice. These Pokémon use their sturdy tusks to plow through snow drifts as they make their way down slopes. In fact, Hisuian Avalugg actively avoid the sea being part Rock-type, they consume minerals in addition to ice in order to sustain their bodies. Scientists believe this change may have arisen due to the steep terrain of the region, granting Avalugg that could navigate hills and mountains access to more abundant resources. ![]() The Avalugg of Hisui are adapted entirely to terrestrial life compared to their amphibious relatives. Avalugg are diurnal Pokémon their crevasses can be observed widening in the morning sun as they go about their day before rebuilding as they rest for the night. With their backsides protected, Avalugg will then try to crush foes with their weight. ![]() The Bergmite on their backs will lodge themselves into their crevasses, covering them in sharp and icy spikes. They are often seen carrying groups of Bergmite on their backs in a manner similar to an aircraft carrier. The head of Hisuian Avalugg is larger compared to Kalosian Avalugg, and has two large tusk-like plates on its lower jaw.Ī slow but immensely powerful Pokémon, Avalugg are capable of crushing any obstacle that stands in their way. This regional variant has its entire body made of stone, whilst its top, along with its head, are covered in a layer of solid ice. Hisuian Avalugg is noticeably smaller than its Kalosian counterpart, weighing only half as much.

With the popularity of online shopping, returns on purchases have become a more common gesture. ![]() Refunds and Exchange Policy Of Fashion Nova.What Is the Return Policy of Fashion Nova?. ![]() That being said there are several here who also get good results with SCALP but many (Primal for sentence) like the newest iteration of the program. They also have a tech here on the forum who answers a lot of newbie questions and gives a lot of good info. The VM platform is a really good program and in the upper levels is a superior value to just about anything out there in a bang for the buck scenario. ![]() To answer your question, If you use PC computers I would recommend VM so it sounds like you picked my fav of the two already HOWEVER The cut version is limited in abilities. So is VinylMaster Cut a bad choice? Does SCALP do anything it can't? And when I asked about it they just send me a PSN for VinylMaster Cut without verifying which piece of software I wanted. Common courtesy and customer service would dictate they needed to ask me. And I think they should give more thought into helping me since I've already pointed out that the auction is contradictory.īut besides that, why would they ship it out if I didn't let them know. if I could afford to just buy anything else I wouldn't have needed to buy a value cutter to begin with. But software is a very big part of this package. They've been nice and respond quickly to my inquiries and I want to have a good business relationship with USCutter. I guarantee you Ebay would side with me if I decided to file a complaint. It didn't say "pick from the list below". They said, "the following items are included". It clearly showed both pieces of software are included. ![]() Which program is 'better'? If SCALP does anyone know of a manager or someone I can talk to see if I can get SCALP instead since I haven't activated/used the PSN for VMC? I hate to ask this same question in both forums, but hopefully, some of you here have used both programs. Support wrote back saying I can do rhinestone templates with both pieces of software and they don't offer design support. So I asked would that be a better choice than VinylMaster Cut. I had read further in the description for SCALP that's good for rhinestone templates which are something I wanted to get into, no exclusively but just in addition to everything else. I haven't installed it yet so the PSN hasn't been used. And I inadvertently CHOSE one of the software packages. But if I was SUPPOSED to choose which piece of software I wanted, why did they not ask me before they shipped everything? Instead, it was the weekend, which is the only time I had free, and found out I can't use the cutter that I've been drooling over all week.īut they shipped it. When asked about it support said most people throw away the software card because they don't see a CD. I was never asked before the package was sent. Well, I read the fine print and it does say there is a choice. So I contacted support to ask for the SCALP PSN and was told 'you already picked'. I then remember that the auction showed both pieces of information and it looked like both were included. So I first asked for the PSN for VinylMaster Cut. I did not receive PSN's for either piece of software when I received everything. The auction made it appear that both pieces of software were included. ![]() I recently bought a bundle from USCutter on Ebay.

But the battery life still limits it to road runners, and I’d love to see even more safety features added to account for women’s safety on the run. Thanks to a number of updates, the latest version provides a wealth of useful metrics to help you improve your running technique, customise workouts and keep on top of all the non-running aspects of marathon training. I was wrong in thinking the Apple Watch wasn’t a proper running watch. As a female runner, this is one of the best safety features the Ultra has to offer, and would mean I don’t need to carry a personal safety alarm during the darker months of the year. For serious athletes, ultra- and trail runners, the Apple Watch just can’t compete.Īnd while Apple hasn’t revealed much about the Series 9, I’d love to see the siren alarm exclusive to the Apple Watch Ultra introduced. I know I can chance a training session if my Garmin is hanging on to 10%, whereas the Apple Watch is guaranteed to leave me out in the cold. A mere 24 hours is pretty pitiful when you compare it to similarly priced watches like the Garmin Forerunner 265 (up to 15 days) or the Polar Grit X (up to 7 days). There’s a lot to like about the Apple Watch when it comes to running-specific features, but what still lets it down is the battery life. Like Garmin’s location tracking, friends can also view my location on the Find My app – but unlike Garmin Tracker, this is reliant on friends with iPhones. ![]() Safety featuresĪ number of running watches have seen advancements in their safety features over recent years, so it’s good to see Apple catching up here.Ī new fall-detection feature alerts emergency services if you’re in a collision, and while thankfully this isn’t a feature I’ve directly benefited from, it does bring me peace of mind as an urban runner. If I know there’s a time of the month I regularly feel sluggish, I can chat to my coach about my training plan. One of the features I’ve enjoyed most about the Apple Watch is being able to track my cycle in the Health app, establish any patterns in symptoms and how these impact the quality of my training sessions. It’s hard to know how much is too much when it comes to running on your period. It’s also part of the watches’ cycle-tracking capabilities, with changes in temperature often corresponding with changes in a women’s menstrual cycle – including ovulation. You have to wear the watch for several nights to get a reading, but the idea is that it can be used to detect oncoming infections. One of the biggest updates from the Series 7 to the Series 8 has been the introduction of a temperature sensor. It takes energy to move the weight of your body up and down, so the lower your VO, the better. ![]() Vertical oscillation, in particular, has been useful for an amateur runner like myself. These features aren’t unique to Apple – Garmin’s Running Dynamics Pod has been doing this for a while – but it does mean all of this data is available on one device. Three of the newest features go a step further, all designed to improve your running economy: vertical oscillation (how much you bounce up and down with each stride), stride length and ground contact time. If you flick up, you can then view a dedicated heart rate page, including the time spent in each training zone (1-5). Open the Fitness app on your iPhone and you can view details of your run, including elevation, average heart rate, pace, power and cadence. ![]() In the Series 8, there’s plenty to go on in terms of optimising your running technique. Previous versions of the Apple Watch offered a single page of stats in the way of performance metrics, which was fine for the majority of people but nothing on the athlete-level feedback of Garmin and co. ![]() Inadequate to restore repository space that means it can’t be used to restore deleted files.And because it is just a simple program for your Mac you can avoid the uncluttered display of your Mac. ![]()

And it gets worse: in the middle of the chapter, a legion of Thracian dracoknights show up as green units. They've got hordes of troops that will be relentlessly flooding the map, and have already set up four ballistae around the walls whose range basically covers 60% of the city – which can easily pick off any of your units at low HP, along with dealing extra damage to your fliers and therefore severely limiting their movement. Chapter 14 is a large defense map that has you staking out in the Tahra streets while the enemy army throws an enormous amount of reinforcements at you.Thracia 776 is renowned for being Nintendo Hard, and there are many different levels in this game that would easily qualify as That One Level in normal Fire Emblem games.So you need to hurry and kill Manfroy, while avoiding killing Julia, hurry Seliph back across the fucking map to snap her out of, schlep Julia right back across the map to get the tome, and then try to get to Julius without him sniping off your weaker units. Oh, and he has a long-range tome that lets him snipe your units from afar to boot, making even approaching him a risky proposition. The only way to negate this is with the holy light tome Naga, which can only be wielded by, you guessed it, Julia. In other words, even your most powerful units will be lucky to do more than sneeze on him. A close second is the final part of the last chapter in which you not only have to withstand a barrage of enemies, a powerful boss with a Holy Weapon and three Falcon Knights with Awareness and the Critical Skill but you also have to hurry over to Velthomer to take out Manfroy so you can get Julia back on your side! And you NEED her back on your side, because without her the Final Boss is pretty much impossible, since he has an (un)holy weapon that not only jacks his stats, but halves the attack power of anyone attacking him, and that's before the boss's defense is even factored.Thing is, these NPCs have such poor AI that they tend to attack the enemy on sight and then get themselves killed, so you'll find yourself trying to reach for them to heal them WAY too many times to even count. And no, you can't get it again in the second half. Namely, the condition of keeping those three NPC knights alive if you want the very valuable Knight Ring (it lets foot units move again after attacking, VERY useful for dancers!). ![]()
