![]() If you add 32GB unified memory to that Mac mini to match that of the Mac Studio then you almost have the same Mac, bar the GPU cores, for the same price of $1,999/£2,099. So you can match the CPU in the Mac Studio in a $1,599 Mac mini, which might be an option to consider if you don’t need the extra GPU cores. ![]() In that case, the 10-core CPU in the Mac mini is updated to a 12-core CPU, which is identical to the 12-core CPU in the M2 Max Mac Studio. How does the price of the Mac mini M2 Pro compare with the Mac Studio though? Starting at $1,999/£2,099 the Mac Studio costs $700/£700 more than the Mac mini with M2 Pro, which is quite a leap, but you do get a 30-core GPU in the Mac Studio, while the M2 Pro Mac mini only offers a 16-core GPU as standard.įor another $300 you can get a 19-core GPU option for the Mac mini. But not everyone needs all the power of a Mac Studio with M2 Ultra, and some don’t even need the power of the M2 Max, for those the M2 Pro Mac mini could be more than sufficient. Now the Mac Studio has competition from an M2 Pro Mac mini on one side and the M2 Ultra Mac Pro on the other.Īs long as you don’t need the expansion options of the Mac Pro, the M2 Ultra Mac Studio, which shares the same specs as the Mac Pro, will meet the needs of all but the most demanding creative. Now the Mac Studio has been updated with Apple’s M2 Max and M2 Ultra chips it is still a superb deal for content creators of any level, but Apple’s offering has changed over the months since the original Mac Studio launched. When Apple introduced the Mac Studio in March 2022 we were impressed by its processing power and excellent value combined. We think an M2 Pro Mac mini could be the perfect Mac for many Mac users who may be considering the Mac Studio, but there is no doubt that the Mac Studio is the better machine and the cheapest way to get maximum power.

![]() ![]() In this way, Powell argues that movie composers are subconsciously “guiding your emotions, pacing your reactions, churning up your attention, and easing you out the door during the credits”. Viewers are instantly transported to the emotions experienced by Jason Bourne and the ups and downs throughout his journey. The series’ theme song is intrinsically linked to how the story unfolds and is key to character development. John Powell, the composer of the hugely successful Bourne film series, has spoken about how Moby’s “haunting, even lonely, inevitably Bourne” Extreme Ways is “part of the character now”. Consistency is fundamental to brand building. Yet its role in that industry has typically been less well understood – or indeed, exploited.īut for brands, there is a double challenge – not just in finding music that appropriately resonates with a commercial but also in ensuring that it is ‘on brand’. It follows that music has the same ability to subconsciously influence our emotions in advertising. Music influences our mood and it can guide narrative and elicit certain sentiments when it mirrors and enhances the emotional impact of the scene. Our response to sound is involuntary and it is supremely effective at manipulating us emotionally without our conscious consent. Music achieves this because sound operates directly on the subconscious, and therefore it is the most effective way to modulate emotions. Indeed, through the emotional power of music, Hollywood and other media industries have long known how to tell stories and deliver scenes that become supercharged with emotion with the addition of the right music. The use of music to deliver emotional impact in storytelling is well established. ![]() Retinal changes seen in special situations include the following: Optic nerve changes: Edema or, in later stages of optic neuropathy, optic disc pallor is seen. Follow-up scans show a resolution in increased central foveal thickness in the right eye (C) and symmetry of architecture with that of the left eye (D). 1: OCT scans show a slight increase in central foveal thickness in the right eye (A) as compared with the left eye (B). These findings are seen more as the severity of anemia increases.įigure 2. Vessel changes: Arteries are attenuated and pale, and veins are dilated and tortuous. When these are severe and located at the macula, macular star is seen. Hard exudates: These may be seen due to resolved retinal edema. Retinal edema: The microtrauma of the vessel wall secondary to raised transmural pressure leads to leakage. 6Ĭotton wool spots: Retinal nerve fiber layer infarction due to retinal hypoxia in anemia causes these superficial fluffy white lesions. ![]() The white centers in Roth spots can be due to inflammatory infiltrates, fibrin and platelets, neoplastic cells, or focal areas of ischemia. Rarely, blood may be present in the subhyaloid plane or in the vitreous. In a few cases, dot and blot hemorrhages in deeper retinal layers may be noted. Hemorrhages: Superficial, flame-shaped hemorrhages located in the nerve fiber layer are the most common finding in anemic retinopathy. Retinal changes common to all anemias include the following: ![]() Alternatively, vision loss may occur due to disc edema or optic neuropathy. At the macula, hemorrhages, edema, or hard exudates can cause impairment of vision. Rarely, loss of vision can be a presenting complaint, because most cases are asymptomatic. The clinical picture in D is the left eye.Īlong with systemic features of anemia per se, and in relation to the primary etiology leading to the anemia, ocular findings can be classified as features common to all anemias or specific features due to specific etiologies. On follow-up, the macular edema resolved in the right eye (C). 1: Fundus photos showing retinal edema in the patient’s right eye (A) as compared with the left eye (B). Hypotension may lead to optic neuropathy. Other factors implicated in the pathology are venous stasis, angiospasm, increased blood viscosity (myeloproliferative disorders), hypotension (following hemorrhage), etc. In many clinical situations, thrombocytopenia is associated with anemia, and that leads to defective coagulation and hemorrhages. Retinal hypoxia also leads to vascular dilatation increased transmural pressure owing to hypoproteinemia and microtraumas to the vessel walls, which cause retinal edema and hemorrhages. Anemia causes retinal hypoxia, which leads to infarction of the nerve fiber layer and clinically manifests as cotton wool spots. 3Ī variety of pathologic changes occurring due to and associated with anemia are implicated in the clinical features of anemic retinopathy. As the severity of anemia increases, the risk of retinopathy increases, particularly when the hemoglobin (Hb) level is below 6 gm/dL. 2 EPIDEMIOLOGY and PATHOGENESISĪnemia causes retinopathy in 28% of patients, especially when there is coexisting thrombocytopenia (38%). These were first described by Ulrich in 1883 in association with gastrointestinal hemorrhage. 1 In the eye, anemia can lead to transient retinal hemorrhages. A deficiency of vitamin B12 is known as pernicious anemia. Iron deficiency is the most common type of anemia.

There are so many ideas hurtling in from so many different directions that it can create the illusion of being a tad overwhelming but the game, like Lego’s trademark bricks, fits together snugly. While Lego Marvel Super Heroes 2 doesn’t completely buck that trend, it’s undoubtedly a confident, swaggering step in the right direction. Lego games invariably have a reputation for being a bit samey. The Grandmaster’s Battletorium is little more than a mild distraction but its Infinity Gauntlet game – think Halo’s Oddball mixed with Smash Bros – is perfect for a family get-together, or to keep the kids quiet for half an hour. There’s even a competitive multiplayer element this time. Fancy taking the Quinjet for a spin with Kingpin across Ancient Egypt? Sure, go nuts. The game may funnel you down the story path but you can still choose to tackle the 11 side bosses to be found in Chronopolis, as well as just mess about with a ragtag team of your favourite heroes and villains. Your completionist itch will most definitely be scratched through not only the 15-hour runtime of the story but also the dozens upon dozens of hours you can put into the optional content. ![]() Levels are more vertical now, encouraging exploration, and there are lists upon lists of side missions for you to get stuck into. There’s so much extra content and, yet, it rarely feels like it’s been tacked-on. TT Games has approached this sequel with the right frame of mind. Yes, you can complete levels to Hooked on a Feeling and, yes, that is as amazing as it sounds. Spider-Man unleashes a torrent of webs, Hulk (inevitably) smashes and Star-Lord, brilliantly, dances whilst listening to his officially licensed mixtape. With a click of circle/B button, the heroes can unleash their special movies. The game is bursting at the seams with little references - you should definitely check out Gwenpool’s room, complete with meta lines from Gwen herself about tutorials - and that even translates to the characters’ actions. No matter the flaws, if you’re a Marvel fan (or even just someone who likes 3D platforming) then you owe it to yourself to play this. Restarting the level fixed the problem but it’s something to be aware of, and hopefully one that can be remedied easily. One level in particular saw a boss refuse to change into his next form because he was submerged in a pool of water. Bosses and characters also have an annoying tendency to get stuck on scenery. I’m fairly sure it’s not an obscure in-joke. The Enchantress, for instance, booms her lines out at twice the volume of any other character in the game. It won’t be uncommon to see frame rate drops during cutscenes and sound levels to be out of whack. ![]() Technical issues can also plague the game somewhat. The end result is a bit of a chaotic mess, and something that is disappointing to see when everything from the cutscenes to Easter eggs you spot out the corner of your eye are lavished with such attention and care. ![]() Even more frustratingly, most bosses run on for a couple of minutes too long by retreating into invincible states and sending more minions at you. While it is undeniably cool to go against some of Marvel’s biggest bads, most just turn out to be feverish button mashes. This simple sensibility, though, unfortunately also translates to bosses. ![]() How Many Decks of Cards Does It Take To Play Golf? Place the remaining cards face down on the table, and flip the first card over and place it beside the stack to start the discard pile.Įach player may peak once at the two closest cards from their layout but may not look again during play. Once the cards are dealt, they should be arranged in a square face down. Each player is dealt four cards one at a time to start. Most people use the four card rule, and that’s what we will cover in this section.

Despite the high number of puzzles and my failure, I think the room should be doable without too much problem by an experienced team, while still being an interesting challenge, and could even be completed by a motivated team of beginners. The only drawback of his help in my case concerned this confusing puzzle I mentioned above: the gamemaster repeatedly used a technical term that I didn’t know, despite me telling I could not understand this word.īeing by myself, the game was difficult to complete and I did not manage to escape, lacking a few minutes, although the gamemaster abundantly helped me. We have two locations in Chicago: one is located at Logan Square & the other one is at Fulton Market. The gamemaster helps you when he feels you are blocked and start being bored, rather than restricting his help to a predefined number of hints – which is a more entertaining system in my opinion. Our pricing starts at 36.95 per player for a private game. ![]() There is only one puzzle in the second room which I found a bit confusing and not so interesting. There is a nice balance of observation, manipulation and reasoning in the puzzles, with an emphasis on observation – which is probably the real challenge here (interestingly, though, the difficulty does not reside only in finding hidden objects!) Some manipulations are very unique and fit perfectly in this Western environment: a very good use of electronics will enable you to communicate with nature, feel like a real cow-boy, or express your soul of miner. The various atmospheres are all quite elaborate and immersive in different ways. You start in a fairly convincing recreation of the surroundings of a miner’s cabin, and have to enter it deeper and deeper to find Clyde’s gold. This escape game has indeed very nice decors. You’ve been tipped off to where he stashed his gold… but so has the mob. Clyde made too many bets with the wrong crowd and now he’s missing. No one was captivated more than Clyde Hamilton, a greedy gold prospector who loved to gamble. “For nearly two centuries, the hope of gold has lured people to the hills of Northern California. I didn’t know anyone in the city to play with, but they nicely accepted that I would play the room by myself. I called them and they recommended me their ‘Gold Rush’ room for its immersion. The Escape Game Chicago attracted my attention – it is the local venue of a chain that also exists in Austin, Orlando, Pigeon Forge, Minneapolis, and Dallas. I stayed in Chicago for work during a few days in November 2017, and wanted to use this opportunity to try some of the escape rooms the city has to offer. ![]() ***Wages may vary depending on experience, location and state*** ・Over 3000 work locations across the US and Canada ・On the job training including Scribe University and Clinical Training ・We are partnered with hospitals and ambulatory sites across the country, and staff over 50 specialties ・Opportunities to travel, work in person, by video, or in our digital solutions space ・Flexible scheduling-full-time and part-time positions ・Connections with universities, career advisors, and professional schools ・PTO, Comprehensive Health Insurance, and 401k for full-time employees ・A focus on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion ・A fun and impactful team culture Joining ScribeAmerica team includes these benefits ・Accompany providers during patient visits to assist in documenting the provider assessment and exam ・Gain substantial knowledge in how to appropriately document patient history, physical exams, assessments, diagnostic results, medical procedures, treatment plans, medical opinions of consultants, diagnoses, medication/prescription information, and follow-up instructions ・Navigate the facility computer system and electronic medical record ・Monitor pending labs and radiology orders for results to help guide patient care ・Review past history and test results on patients which are critical in driving medical decisions by your provider ・Adhere to medical facility’s compliance requirements and ScribeAmerica’s company policies and procedures ・Commit to ScribeAmerica for up to 1 year ・Be flexible enough to work 2 shifts per week ・Ability to type over 40 WPM What you need to excel as a medical scribe We’re proud to be acknowledged as a “Best Places to Work '' by Forbes magazine and to have won an Early Talent Award for 2023 from Handshake as one of the Top Employers of Gen Z.
