![]() All players start in the daily grind of the rat race with some cash in the bank, dealing with the various opportunities and challenges that life throws up.Īs you proceed through the game, you receive your salary and have to take care of your necessary expenses (Payday tile), may incur some unnecessary spending (Doodad card), and then figure out what to do with the rest of your money. All players are assigned a profession (Nurse, Engineer, Mechanic, etc.) with their corresponding income levels and balance sheet. The board game is structured in two main sections: The Rat Race and The Fast Track. We all loved it!Ĥ.3.1 Cashflow 101 Board Game How do you play Cashflow? I played this game with my friends, my spouse, and my retired parents. The game also helps improve their understanding of cash flow and mental maths. ![]() With its easy-to-understand rules, the game is simple and effective, and perfect for children of all ages. It is the perfect way to teach yourself and your children the value of money by teaching 3 most important skills: how to make money, how to manage money, and how to invest money. Games are always a great way to teach many lessons, and this game does that well for kids and for adults too. ![]() ![]() You don’t read many financial blogs talking about board games, but I have personally found this game to be very useful, so I felt that it is worth sharing my thoughts here. This board game is a companion to the book Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki, which I covered in another article, and is a great way to put in practice what Kiyosaki teaches in the book. I am not a big board game player, but I say from personal experience that this game and the book have been a very important part of my personal journey to financial freedom. Why is a finance site reviewing a board game? Well, we’ve all played Monopoly and tried to build a financial empire, but if you’re looking for a game that will teach you how to be wealthy in real life, Cashflow is the board game you need to consider. ![]() ![]() The records of cerebral activity clearly show that hypnosis can change the state of the brain. ![]() They also attempted to do the same thing when not hypnotized. These subjects then tried to drain bright color from pictures, or see color where none existed. Researchers separately hypnotized eight people as they lay in a scanning machine that recorded activity in their brains. That result wouldn’t be so surprising at a carnival or stage show, but it comes from a tightly controlled scientific experiment done at a Harvard University medical facility. He has reportedly reconnected with his children.People have been hypnotized to see color where only shades of gray exist, and to see gray when actually looking at brightly colored rectangles. He has since divorced and is living in Sarasota, Florida with a girlfriend. He lost custody of his children to Betty's parents. Not long after the trial, Betty's widow and Candy's former lover, Allan Gore, left the state of Texas and remarried. Currently 72, Candy has had no further run-ins with law enforcement. Ironically, she has worked with her daughter Jenny as a mental health therapist, counseling teens and adults who suffer from depression. As of the writing of this article, Candy is still alive and now goes by the last name "Wheeler". While conducting our fact-check, we learned that Candy and Pat Montgomery moved to Georgia but later divorced. The character was given the fictional last name "Morrison". In addition to the 2023 HBO Max miniseries Love and Death starring Elizabeth Olsen as Candy Montgomery, there was a 1990 CBS TV movie titled A Killing in a Small Town in which Barbara Hershey portrayed Candy. ![]() The Candy true story confirms that the jury deliberated for four-and-a-half hours and came back with a verdict of "not guilty." To the shock and outrage of much of the public, Candy Montgomery was acquitted of Betty Gore's murder and was again a free woman. Candy supposedly had a disassociative reaction in which she entered into a non-lucid state of rage as she struck Betty with the axe. As she cried out, her mother shook her and then raised her finger to her lips and said, "Shhhhhh." Candy claimed that Betty made the same gesture and sound during their altercation, which is what the psychiatrist explained had caused Candy to snap. The psychiatrist explained that Candy had been struck with a sharp instrument when she was a child, which left her bleeding badly. The psychiatrist testified that Candy had experienced what is called a disassociative event, suggesting that the altercation with Betty triggered a psychological reaction in her and she became unaware of what she was doing, essentially losing herself in a blind rage. However, the defense brought in a psychiatrist from Houston who had evaluated Candy, including putting her under hypnosis. At first, it seemed that this was a weak argument given the severity of Betty Gore's injuries and the fact that Candy had struck her with the axe 41 times, continuing even after she was dead. The defense team argued that Candy Montgomery's alleged murder of Betty Gore was an act of self-defense, which is what Candy had tried to claim. She claimed that she struck Betty with the axe in self-defense. Candy also sustained bruises to her head during the struggle. They wrestled for control of the weapon, which Candy was eventually able to get a hold of. Candy said she admitted to the affair and told Betty that it had been over for some time (technically six or seven months).Ĭandy said that Betty then tried to attack her with an axe she retrieved from the garage, swinging down to the floor and striking Candy's toe (pictured below). ![]() She said that Betty, 30, confronted her with regard to the extramarital affair that she had with Betty's husband, Allan. Why did Candy Montgomery kill Betty Gore?Ĭandy, 30, claimed that she had left the church to go over to Betty's house to pick up a bathing suit for Betty's older daughter because the girls were having a sleepover at the Montgomerys' home that night. In addition, blood and hair were found in the shower, indicating that the killer had tried to wash the blood off. ![]() Investigators also discovered a bloody footprint made by a flip-flop in the laundry room. fiction, we confirmed that a bloody thumbprint was found on the freezer door. The real Betty Gore is pictured on the left and actor Melanie Lynskey is shown as Gore in the Hulu miniseries. ![]() ![]() In a few short breaths I’m a social worker, a baker, a doctor, a warrior, a savior of cities, and an inspirer of worlds. Still, I’d bet the pile of gold I’ve just typed into existence that you’ll spend much of that time with a genuine smile on your face. Ultimately, Scribblenauts Unlimited’s biggest problem is that it can never live up to its own title – random tomfoolery won’t add too much to the brief six or seven hours it takes to finish the story and complete all the main challenges. At one point, a magic mirror I’d created produced a parallel version of myself, who compounded the mess I’d already made by spawning his own pile of assorted doodads, including an angry shoe and a forlorn-looking 5th Cell developer. Who’d win in a fist fight between God and the Devil? Lucifer didn’t even get to throw a punch. Can you ride a whale while toting a harpoon gun? Of course you can. ![]() The ability to self-author solutions doesn’t just make the larger puzzles more satisfying, it also tends to leave the maps dotted with random junk, people, and things, which can lead to some wonderfully weird scenarios. Innocent Witches Maps dotted with random junk, people, and things lead to some wonderfully weird scenarios. The game tells you to build a wall and prep the townspeople for sword-to-sword skirmishing, but there’s nothing preventing you from deleting the barriers, carpeting the approach with mines and blasting away raiders yourself. In one section, you’re tasked with defending a desert town against marauding bandits. It’s here that Unlimited proves its sandbox credentials. Luckily the more substantial missions are far more accepting – demanding, even – of lateral thinking. And it’s a wonderful little bundle of joy. It’s a game where nearly every single word you tap out on the Wii U’s touch screen becomes an object you can interact with on the fly. It’s a driven collection of hundreds of puzzles set in a sprawling open world spanning dozens of themes. ![]() Its Super Mario Paint meets Grand Theft Auto and whatever else your warped little mind decides to splash across its blank canvases at any given instant. Scribblenauts Unlimited might be gaming’s greatest toy box. Scribblenauts Unlimited Free Download Repacklab ![]() ![]() ![]() My rule of thumb is that when something needs to tick more than 10 times per second use Tick (you can set the rate of Tick on the Actor) otherwise use a Timer.Įither way remember that Tick by itself is not demanding it is what it does that can be demanding and the amount of Actors it is Ticking on concurrently. Remember to stop Ticking Actors from ticking when the tick isn’t needed though instead of adding a bool check at the beginning of the tick. Timers lose their benefit when they have to trigger almost as fast as a normal tick since tick has no overhead between ticks, it just ticks unless if the TickInterval is greater than 0. The TimerManager schedule each timer efficiently. A lot of logic doesn't need to update 60 times a second, so with a Timer, you can set it to update 10 times a second, or 0.1 in the Timer. It's easy to google and understand it and the ue4 documents show a health/damage system using a Timer. The benefit of timers is that they don’t have any noteworthy overhead between their ticks so it is better than a normal tick making its own individual check on every tick on every actor. With a timer you can set the exact tick rate of the event. Tick by itself doesn’t have any particular overhead, in fact Timers have more overhead than tick if you want the timer to “tick” very often. Is there some limitation of Event Timers that I’m not aware of, or is Event Tick actually firing more than once per frame? I’m just trying to understand why this might be. 0.01 timer is wait for 10 ms before its execute your code, while 60 fps game calculate every 16.666 ms. It’s not butter-smooth until I crank it up to about 240FPS or. 00833 to approximate 120FPS is almost there, but there are still micro stutters. Bumping the Timer speed up (or rather down) to. However, if I use a timer instead and set its time to 1/60 or 0.166, the actor stutters like hell. This parameter is a float that indicates the amount of time that passed. Because of this, I started using Set Timer By Event instead of Event Tick, however, for certain situations, like when I’m setting up pawn movement, it seems like I can’t get the speed of an Event Tick to be high enough.įor example, if I’m just adding a simple Actor Rotation based on Input If I drive it via Event Tick, it’s butter-smooth rotation even though I seem to be capped at 60 FPS in the editor. Right - click inside the Event Graph window, type in Tick, and select the. So the theory is that Event Tick shouldn’t be overutilized because it can cause excessive overhead with your game and that it’s also inconsistent because fluctuations in your FPS can cause it to run at an inconsistent speed. ![]() ![]() ![]() The second call resolved the issue in about 2 minutes. Would it be faster to move money / shares to a different institution?ĮDIT: Fixed now, but both calls waited for almost exactly 60 minutes before someone picked up. I've been listening to music on the "direct line" for 32 minutes now. The rep was unable to enable MFA again, suggested I needed to restart my phone and gave me a direct line to avoid waiting again, and wished me luck. Software Update Notes: Lists version and software information for this release of VIP Manager. See this document for a list of these licenses. Both Duo Mobile and Authy suggest that not encrypting the account names or sites can help with account recovery, but that claim rings hollow to us: Knowing which accounts have two-factor authentication enabled doesn’t ease the process of getting back into an account.Trying to move the Symantec "VIP Access Token" MFA app from an old phone to a new one.įirst, on what planet is it normal to need to speak to a human to enable / disable / modify this? I've moved a dozen accounts using two other token generating apps requiring about 2-3 hours time and no need to make a phone call.Īfter waiting an hour, I spoke with someone who was able to disable it, but when I logged in again I was not prompted for the token code. Symantec VIP Third-Party License Agreements: This Symantec software may contain open source and other third party materials that are subject to a separate license. Better yet, we’d prefer the company didn’t collect this data at all. Authy recently updated its privacy notice to include more information about what the company can access and added in an email to us that, “Access to this information is limited to employees who either support Authy or have a valid need-to-know.” We appreciate the addition to the policy but think this information should be in the app, as well. Unlike Duo Mobile, which stores the backup on either iCloud or Google Drive, Authy stores the backup on its own servers, which theoretically gives the company access to those details. Security researchers at Mysk also found this same info was sent in analytics, which may be linked to your email address and phone number. ![]() Similarly to Duo Mobile, Authy’s backups don’t encrypt some information that you might expect it to, sometimes including the name of the website and a username (you can edit these, but we suspect few people bother to do so). But for most people, the potential security risk of backing up codes online is outweighed by the fear of being locked out of accounts for good, so for the apps that do offer backups, we looked for clear explanations of how the backups worked, where they’re stored, and how they’re encrypted. So we looked for authenticators that left this feature opt-in. Optional backups: The security researchers we spoke with said they don’t recommend backing up or syncing a two-factor authentication account because then your tokens are on the company’s servers, which could be compromised.Going with a reliable company helps guarantee continued support for new mobile operating systems and tech support if something goes wrong. Reliability: Pretty much anyone with an app developer license can make an authentication app, so when it came to security, we looked for apps that are open source or run by well-known companies like Google, Twilio, Cisco, or Microsoft.We also appreciate a search bar so you can find a specific app or website. Usability: An authenticator should make it easy to add new accounts, find existing accounts, and delete unneeded accounts.Availability on Windows and Mac is useful but isn’t a requirement. sim and want to move your mobile number across to your new sim, you can do this in My O2. Platform compatibility: A good two-factor authentication app should work on both Android and iOS. We wont charge you to keep your number when you switch to O2. ![]() You should send reports of phishing attempts to the FTC, but since most people don’t, it’s hard to know how often such phishing happens. The FBI does warn people about the risks of SIM swapping and phishing tools, but two-factor authentication is still effective in protecting accounts. Not much data is available about the specifics of phishing attempts like this, but the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center received 25,344 reports of phishing in 2017 (PDF). ![]() Unlike a stolen password, two-factor authentication software tokens need to be grabbed in real time to be useful. Someone could email you a link to a fake Gmail login page saying your account needs an update, where you then log in with your username, password, and two-factor authentication token. It is still susceptible to advanced phishing attempts. But two-factor authentication isn’t perfect-no security tool is. Two-factor authentication can protect against more-basic phishing attempts, such as when a fake login page tries to steal your password. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() OpenVZ compared to other virtualization technologies OpenVZ is similar to Solaris Containers and LXC.
