Early Christian basilicas from the 4th century onwards were decorated with wall and ceiling mosaics. Pebble mosaics were made in Tiryns in Mycenean Greece mosaics with patterns and pictures became widespread in classical times, both in Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome. Mosaics have a long history, starting in Mesopotamia in the 3rd millennium BC. ![]() Mosaic today includes not just murals and pavements, but also artwork, hobby crafts, and industrial and construction forms. Mosaics are often used as floor and wall decoration, and were particularly popular in the Ancient Roman world. Each row of 3 pictures represents a style: Ancient Greek or Roman, Byzantine and Art NouveauĪ mosaic is a pattern or image made of small regular or irregular pieces of colored stone, glass or ceramic, held in place by plaster/ mortar, and covering a surface. Max Overlap - By default the settings above will not allow boards to overlap, so to see the effect of random rotation or offset you need to have a relative large grout size so the boards have place to move around, if you don't care about a bit of overlapping you can raise the "Max Overlap".Various examples of mosaics. ![]() Tilt Settings - Same principle as the rotation and offset, tilt changes the angle of the top surface, this simulates floorboards or tiles that are laid uneven. This is by default locked to the X value to randomly move in both directions. Max/Min Offset Y - Same principle as "Max Offset X" it just controls the other direction. Spread - Controls the distribution of the movement, for details read above. Min Offset X - Controls the minimum movement, so should normally be set to 0 to randomly move between 0 and the value in "Max Offset X". Max Offset X - Controls how much each board can move in the X direction, usually the length direction., it is restricted to not overlap other boards, if you don't care about that read about "Max Overlap" below. Spread - Controls the distribution between Max and Min, if the spread value is low then only a few boards will be rotated with the maximum value, if it's 0,5 the rotation is evenly distributed, and if it's high more boards will be rotated with the Max value. Min Rotation - Controls the minimum rotation, so should normally be set to 0 to randomly rotate between 0 and the value in "Max Rotation". Max Rotation - Controls how much each board can rotate around itself, it is restricted to not overlap other boards, if you don't care about that read about "Max Overlap" below. Hexagon, Radius - Controls the size of one hexagon tile, the radius is the size of the circumscribed circle. Herringbone, Parallel Boards - Controls how many boards there should be side by side.Ĭhevron, Angle - Controls the angle of the boards, don't use too high angle, it might create A LOT of boards.īasket Weave, Sub Boards - Controls how many boards there should be inside each square. Settings specific to certain types of floors: Outline - Controls the width of the bevel, by default it's locked to the height in order to create a 45 degree bevel. Row Offset % - Controls how much each row of boards should be offset.Įxtrude H - Controls the height of the floor.īevel H - Controls the height have the bevel along the edge of the board. ![]() Grout Wid - Control the width of the grout in the width direction. Grout Len - Controls the width of the grout in the length direction. Spread - Controls the distribution if there is variable width, for details read above. ![]() Min Width - Controls the minimum length a board can be. Max Width - Controls the maximum width a board can be. Spread - If you have boards with variable length the "Spread" setting will control the distribution between the two sizes, 0,5 the length is evenly distributed, a low Spread value creates a lot of long boards and only a few short ones, a high spread creates a lot of short boards and only a few long ones. Min Length - Controls the minimum length a board can be. Max Length - Controls the maximum length a board can be. Floor Pattern - If you have the full version you can switch between the types of patterns in the """Floor Pattern" Drop down menu.

![]() This entry was posted in Geometry, Grades 9-12 and tagged proof only 3 polygons tessellate, regular tessellations, tessellation by Math Proofs. Therefore, they are the only polygons that can tessellate the plane. ![]() These are the representation of square, regular hexagon, and equilateral triangle respectively as we have stated above. Notice that the only possible ordered pair ( n, a) for this to be true are (4,4), (6,3) and (3,6). Subtracting 2 n from both sides and factoring the left hand side, we haveįactoring out $latex n-2$ we have $latex (n-2)(a-2) = 4$. That is $latex $latex an – 2a 4 = 2n 4$. Next, we add 4 to both sides to make it factorable. Multiplying both sides of the equation above by $latex n$, we have $latex 180a(n-2) = 360n$.ĭividing both sides by 180 results to $latex a(n-2) = 2n$ which simplifies to $latex an – 2a = 2n$. Now if we multiply this to $latex a$, the number or angles that meet at a point, the result must be 360 degrees for them not to have gaps or overlaps. ![]() The sum of the interior angles of a polygon with n sides $latex 180(n-2)$. Since the polygon is regular, the measure of each angle is equal to Theorem: The only regular polygons that tessellate are square, equilateral triangle, and regular hexagon. We will show below that these are the only possible regular polygons that will tessellate. Using this notation, we can describe the square as (4,4), the triangle as (3,6), and the hexagon as (6,3). Now, make the notation ( n, a), where n is the number of sides of the polygon and a be the number of angles that meet at a point. As you can see in the figure below, the sum of the interior angles meeting at a point is 360 degrees. Aside from these three, are there other regular polygons that can tessellate the plane? The answer is none.īefore we prove this theorem, let us first observe what make squares, equilateral triangles, and regular hexagons unique. For the third tessellation we use a property of an equilateral triangle: it has rotational symmetry by 60, that is, you can turn an equilateral triangle by 60. In this post, we explore the properties of regular polygons such as the one shown in the first figure. Some polygons maybe combined with other polygons to do this. The tessellation below is composed of 12-sided polygons, squares, and triangles. See this article for more on the notation introduced in the problem, of listing the polygons which meet at each point.The plane cannot always be tiled by a single shape.

The presidency of Barack Obama was geared towards restoring U.S. ![]() And Iran is racing to arm itself with atomic bombs,” he said. Speaking to a Jewish group in Los Angeles in 2006, Benjamin Netanyahu, who was Israeli prime minister at the time, explicitly tied the genocide that gave rise to Israel in the 20th century to the greatest threat Israel faced in the 21st. Those facilities are all heavily fortified to effectively disrupt the work now taking place there, Israel would have to unleash immensely powerful weapons whose deployment could unleash global (not to mention regional) blowback. But he and others cautioned that the messaging has appeared to be growing more bellicose as Tehran has continued to enrich uranium to ever greater levels and Israel has responded by signaling an increasing willingness to strike Iranian nuclear facilities at Fordow, Isfahan and Natanz. “The posturing is part of the strategy,” Avishai told Yahoo News. The question being asked in Washington and other world capitals is whether the danger today is truly greater than it has been in recent years, or whether the threat of war is being overstated for political ends. ![]() “This is a very, very dangerous situation,” said Bernard Avishai, a professor of government at Dartmouth, who has written extensively on Israel.

The "Disney Version", as the fans named it, features scenes of the movie, and also new scenes of the A-Teens with beach costumes. The video was directed by Gregory Dark and filmed in Los Angeles, California. In addition, the A*Teens' version of the song was overshadowed by the promotion of Bandana's version. Despite the success of the song overseas, it failed to attract the rest of the Latin American public, due to the fact that there was a Spanish version of the song, performed by the Argentine group, Bandana. The song did not chart in the United States but reached No. As a result, the song had two music videos, one to promote the Disney movie, the other for the album. The video had thus tremendous exposure on several television channels, with the A-Teens eventually including the song in their third album. It was later also featured as a bonus track on their third studio album New Arrival for the European market. The song was the A-Teens's first single from their first extended play Pop 'til You Drop!, as well as for the Lilo & Stitch movie soundtrack, which was originally scheduled to include several Presley tracks, the A-Teens picking it for inclusion in the soundtrack.

Their stable keeps getting bigger and better as guys contracts with Showtime and PBC run out. Announcers will also “lay into” the judges scorecards or bad referees when they are way off, which I like. But the announcers voice same opinion on em as viewers, would never happen on American programs. As in all of boxing you get some poo poo fights. On demand replays of the whole event or individual fights and NO spoiler pop ups when browsing make this worth every penny. 10\10, five stars, I recommend to anyone who is a fight fan, and highly recommend for anyone who’s looking to become one. And with a growing roster of fighters and other sport events the value of DAZN continues to rise year after year with no additional cost to us. With podcast that give information about fighters and fights from other networks to rankings, opinions, interviews with fighters you won’t find elsewhere DAZN is by far the best way to watch boxing. On top of all the live fights the announcers that DAZN hires are by far the best in the business, whereas many announcers on ESPN and other services don’t talk about what’s going on in the fight, but the fighters personal situation the announcers at DAZN break down the sweet science of boxing as it is happening on front of you. With DAZN you get probably 10-12 big fights a year in addition to the 30 really competitive fights with fighters that are rising stars, DAZN promised over 50 live boxing events 2022 and for 100$ it’s a steal.

This build brings the most direct damage to your shots, letting you rip and tear through enemies, sending them back to bug hell. Jet Fuel Homebrew will make your rockets go very, very fast, and they will be harder to maneuver because of that. With this build we’re making the Hurricane your dedicated single target weapon. This time it isn’t as drastic, since you’ll still be able to guide your rockets… Somewhat. Unsurprisingly, we’re changing the Hurricane’s playstyle once again. After impacting terrain the mine will not accumulate any further bonus damage from Nitroglycerin Rounds. While the mines do benefit from Nitroglycerin Rounds, they only accumulate the damage bonus while in flight.Mines have a 15 second lifetime, do 2.75x Area Damage, have a x1.5 AoE Radius, and trigger when enemies get within 2m. When missiles impact terrain, they transform into mines that will detonate when enemies get too close.Overclock - Minelayer System: With this overclock you’ll be able to place mines on terrain, for the cost of max ammo and losing the guiding system. Uncontrolled Decompression: Your mines will be able to stun enemies, helping your team with some crowd control. Zip Fuel: This build focuses on the area of effect of the mines, so the area damage will synergise very well with it. ![]() Nano Missiles: A bigger magazine means less reloads! Increased Blast Radius: This perk will make the mine’s area of effect bigger, making them more effective.īigger Jet Engine: You’ll be able to place the mines quicker by taking this perk. You want a serviceable build that can deal with most enemies easily and comfortably.You like placing mines and watching everything explode.You want a different playstyle from shooting rockets.This build will let you fire your rockets and forget, so you can focus on using another gun and dealing with bigger targets while the mines are taking care of the smaller enemies.The mines are great at defending tight passages!.This build changes the Hurricane playstyle, so if you’re looking for something different, this build is for you.These are great in chokepoints, letting you protect yourself and your team from harm! The manual guidance of the rockets will be cut off if you use this build, so instead of trying to shoot the rockets directly, you should place the mines preemptively, before your team gets attacked. Instead of rockets, you will fire mines that you can spray around the terrain, creating a minefield that will blast anything that gets too close. ![]() We introduced the Hurricane as a rocket launcher, but our first build will feature a “slight” change to its playstyle. We won’t hold you off any longer, so we present to you our selection of builds for the “Hurricane” Guided Rocket System. With the right build, you can also make it a serviceable single target weapon, making this gun a blast to use in every situation! The Hurricane is mostly an area of effect weapon, being able to clear the swarms with its splash damage while having respectable direct damage. The "Hurricane" Guided Rocket System is no exception, since it is literally a rocket launcher where you can guide the rockets with your crosshair. The Gunner is the Deep Rock Galactic’s class that has decided that he should bring the biggest guns to the caves. ![]() It is a weird, often compelling, occasionally horrifying collision of grotesquerie and profundity. ![]() It has spawned Reddit threads and podcast segments and “ What We Know So Far” summaries on E. The American show, with its Hunger Games aesthetic and its CSI appeal, has proved to be a ratings juggernaut. Before departing, the performer’s identity-via a ceremonial unmasking that involves a rendition of The Who’s song “ Who Are You?” ( “WHO, who, WHO, who?”), and the audience and judges chanting “Take! It! Off!”-is revealed. It’s a game of attrition, with musical talent alone meant to serve as the primary deciding factor. And each week, the lowest-performing member of the cast, as determined by the votes of the audience and the judges, leaves the show. Each week, the judges try, and quite often fail, to guess the identity of the performer inside the costume. They perform songs, American Idol–style, for a studio audience and a panel of judges who themselves vary in celebrity. The Masked Singer, an Americanized remake of the South Korean show The King of Mask Singer, works like this: 12 celebrities, of slightly varying levels of fame, don elaborate, identity-concealing costumes-a rabbit, an alien, a hippo, a pineapple, a lion-that are tailored to their offstage personas. The artifice, here, is the point.Įarly on in The Masked Singer’s competition, Tori Spelling, her identity obscured by the layers of her corset-and-hoop-skirted Unicorn costume, her voice transformed into a high-pitched squeak, tells the audience, “By putting on this mask, I am showing myself and the next generation of unicorns that true magic comes from within-all you have to do is believe.” She goes on to sing Rachel Platten’s “ Fight Song.” In the several absurdities contained in that moment-myths woven and wrapped and layered so assiduously that it becomes difficult to tell where the joke ends and the truth begins-there’s a kind of insight. The Masked Singer inverts all that, because it treats the lies of reality-as-a-genre not as open secrets, but rather as premises. They ask viewers to suspend disbelief, to think that maybe the romance that blossoms along with the roses on The Bachelor really is genuine, or that the rivalries that bring the drama to the Real Housewives franchise are more than merely performative. Many reality shows, competition-based and otherwise, revolve around a soft-lit version of a noble lie. He is more-more talented, more multifaceted, more complicated-than many have previously assumed him to be. With the win, T-Pain also proved the same thing that all 12 of the show’s celebrity contestants had set out to make clear. During The Masked Singer’s Season 1 finale, the rapper, singer, songwriter, and producer ultimately defeated the show’s runner-up, Donny Osmond (the Peacock), and its second-runner-up, Gladys Knight (the Bee), to claim a mask-shaped trophy. On Wednesday evening, viewers found out what that meant: The celebrity in disguise as the Monster was … T-Pain. To Cannon’s “ Who are you?” question, the Monster, his speaking voice disguised as a cheerful squeak, replied, “I’m a father, a husband, a son, a brother, and more than anything, I’m a person.” And they achieve it through disguising their identities within a series of impressively elaborate, and sometimes wonderfully comical, costumes-a situation that occasionally results in things like a two-toothed pseudo-Minion bringing an audience to tears. Instead of anonymous people seeking fame, this show involves famous people seeking anonymity. That is the operative question of The Masked Singer, a show that is very much like its fellow reality-TV singing competitions, with one notable exception. Talking onstage with the disguised celebrity, remarking on the performance just delivered, against all odds, by a person shrouded in mint-green fur, Cannon intoned, “And now we want to hear from the monster. It was episode 8 of The Masked Singer, the Fox competition’s semifinals round, and a mystery celebrity dressed in a monster costume-a Minion-meets-Gritty situation, conical in form, with a cyclopean eye, a duo of teeth, and three wiggly fingers on each paw-had just performed a powerful, haunting, and deeply poetic rendition of Sam Smith’s “Stay With Me.” Nick Cannon, the show’s host, was as moved by the single-song concert as the rest of the show’s audience members were. ![]() ![]() “Ladies and gentlemen, I think we have just witnessed greatness.
