Panthea con9/25/2023 In the early modern era colonial expansion and missions established this form of religion throughout the world (Neill, 1975 Lewis, 2004). The historical transition from the Late Antique world to the Early Middle Ages was characterized by the decline of traditional polytheistic paganism and its replacement by Christian Trinitarian monotheism in Europe. See also this related, updated article from 2016: Christian and Jewish feminist theologians have already found Paganism to be a valuable dialogue partner as queer theologies increasingly challenge mainstream religions’ notions of gender and sexuality, Paganism has much to add to the discussion. Although sexuality and gender are central theological concerns for many Pagans, more scholarship that moves beyond descriptive approaches is needed, as are more scholarly treatments of the alternative sexualities that garner so much attention in Pagan circles. Additionally, in some more politically conservative Pagan traditions, gender transgression continues to draw homophobic harassment. Pagans continue to struggle with essentialist notions of gender, however, which has caused conflicts around how and whether to include transgender individuals in single-gender groups. Accordingly, sexual minorities have flocked to the movement and have begun to articulate a distinctively queer Pagan spirituality. Pagans tend to be relatively accepting of same-sex relationships, BDSM, polyamory, transgender, and other expressions of gender and sexuality that are marginalized by mainstream society. Much of this belief stems from the erotic theology that entered Paganism through British Wicca, in which celebrants use symbolic or literal sexual ritual to participate in the ongoing creation of the universe. This identity challenges traditional gender roles by fusing traditionally masculine and feminine traits and/or using them in alternative, nonstereotypical ways.ĭeclaring that all acts of love and pleasure are the rituals of the Goddess, contemporary Pagans widely affirm the sacredness of the body and of sexuality. Throughout, I will be using the theories of John Dewey, Victor Turner, and Barbara Myerhoff to prove my thesis: that contemporary pagan rituals, symbols and myths redefine the concepts of masculinity and femininity by offering semi-historical alternatives and instances of “time out of time” as a means of constructing an identity centered on: a personalized creation of faith participation in a resistant, subaltern community and unashamed, ecstatic union with deity. Section Five will cover my analytical conclusions, suggestions for supplemental research, and a few far-reaching postulations on more flexible definitions of gender. Section Four will discuss several challenges to my study, in addition to my responses. Section Three will extol several ways in which pagan ritual and festival can contribute to a theoretical framework for the queerying of gender within pagan celebrant identities. Section Two will hone in on how pagan celebrants form identity within their respective traditions some of the ways in which pagans construct gender within said traditions and how Neopaganism, as a subaltern culture, actively resists and redefines societal norms (including gender norms). Section One will provide a brief overview of Neopaganism as a religion as well as theories of ritual, myth and symbol which will be used throughout my paper. My research question(s) are: In what ways do contemporary pagan ritual practices, symbology and mythology redefine masculinity and femininity for their celebrants? Moreover, how does this challenge normalized gender roles? In order to answer these questions I have separated my paper into five sections. My paper is centered on the religious tradition of Neopaganism and its potential for the creation and validation of alternative (i.e., non-“mainstream”) forms of masculinity and femininity.

707 brass lantern place9/25/2023 is rated #1 in Lawrenceburg.įirst, the service was average at best as our waitress did more complaining than she did serving. Maybe they built this place up just a little too much as I have no idea how this restaurant. They were so excited to bring us to "Their" favorite restaurant. While traveling we met some friends who live in the area of the Brass Lantern. The overall feel of this restaurant is not family feeling at all and that is why when I do move it will still be well worth me to drive 45 minutes or more to eat in Columbia at Legend's, please Brass Lantern do better. have always be nice, smile on their faces and truthful if they were out or short on items. At Legend's in Columbia, so far and I pray it never changes, the managers, the servers, the cooks, etc. Seriously Legend's in Columbia would not have let this happen and certainly would not tell us that Jumbo don't mean Jumbo, then say the meatballs were made bigger today so you get 2. But if you aren't going to give 3 jumbo meatballs just say it, don't give lame excuses and if you are going to go by the size of the meatballs for the day put a sticky not on the menu that it depends on who rolls the meatballs for the day will determine how many you get. I understand that there is a lot going on in the world especially with food shortages etc. Excuse me but this all made no sense at all. Then went into explaining that the menu says Jumbo Shrimp, but they are not Jumbo. Just because the menu said 3 Jumbo meatballs don't mean Jumbo. The manager (do not recall her name, because she didn't give it to us) told my aunt that the meatballs are made by hand and was made bigger than usual, so you get 2. My Aunt explained that we order the spaghetti and meatballs dinner, but we all received only 2 meatballs. The manager came over no smile, how Ya doing? Glad you came, just a sour face and ask us did we need anything. Brought the issue to the server Ellie who said she would get a manager. And at 13$ for a plate of spaghetti and 3 jumbo meatballs we want what we are paying for. When our spaghetti dinners came, they are missing a meatball, I know that might seem trivial to some, but with everything costing so much you want what you are supposed to have. When we order we order from the menu, the menu stated on the spaghetti dinner included 3 jumbo meatballs. First one of the kid's catfish dinners was raw, the catfish was not cook thoroughly, the server offered our child a different dinner or cook the fish, but since she saw the raw fish, she was against that so went with the kid's spaghetti, ok that is done. Kids grill cheese and 2 kids catfish dinners. Our order included 3 spaghetti and meatball dinners, a cheeseburger meal. We understand the shortage of servers, food, etc. We were a large group 4 adults and 3 children, we are very patient people, so we never mind if there is a wait on food, service etc. Really the only good thing about our visit. To begin with I will say that our server Ellie was super nice and keep checking on us. It is far from being top notch as Legend's in Columbia, yes you might think because I have eaten at Legend's for so long, I am bias but that isn't true, there were several big differences between the restaurants. Needless to say, this will be my and my family's one and done visit. We are planning to move to the area soon and wanted to try the restaurant since it is affiliate with Legend's. This was our first visit to Brass Lantern, we travelled here to eat this evening because we eat a lot at Legend's in Columbia.

Tidal app hide suggestions9/25/2023 Tidal is the only streaming company to offer MQA. In January 2017, the company announced a partnership with British company Master Quality Authenticated (MQA) which they claim delivers master-quality recordings at typically 96 kHz / 24-bit with the highest possible resolution to its HiFi subscribers. Richard Sanders was announced as CEO in August 2017. In December 2015, Tidal appointed Jeff Toig as CEO of the company. In September 2015, Tidal began selling digital downloads and CDs. The company refused to comment on closing the offices but confirmed that Andy Chen had been replaced as CEO by Peter Tonstad. On April 16, 2015, it came to public attention that Tidal was closing its original Aspiro offices in Stockholm, terminating the employment for all Swedish employees and the CEO, Andy Chen. And that became a better proposition for us, not an easier one, mind you," he concluded. "We talked to every single service and we explored all the options," he said, "But at the end of the day, we figured if we're going to shape this thing the way we see it, then we need to have independence. Before the acquisition of Aspiro, Jay-Z stated in an interview with Billboard that he was willing to partner with other streaming services to carry out his vision. (controlled by American rapper and businessman Jay-Z) for SEK 466 million ( USD $56.2 million) in January 2015. Īspiro was purchased by Project Panther Bidco Ltd. In January 2015, Tidal launched in five more European countries: Ireland, Finland, the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg. The launch was supported by Sonos and 15 other home audio manufacturers as integration partners. History īranching off from WiMP, which was launched in Norway in 2010 and later available in Sweden, Denmark, Germany, and Poland, Aspiro launched the Tidal brand in the UK, the US, and Canada on October 28, 2014. As of March 2021, Tidal operates in 61 countries. Tidal claimed to have over 3 million subscribers in 2016, although the veracity of those claims and the company's reported streaming numbers have been questioned. While some observers praised the high-fidelity audio quality, and higher subscription fees that would result in higher royalties to the artists and songwriters, others felt the high subscription fees and exclusive Tidal content from the artists involved could lead to more music piracy. In June, 2022, through the disclosure of the Annual Stockholder Meeting 2022, Block reported that the stake acquired in the Tidal music service was 86.8%. In March 2021, Block, then known as Square, agreed to pay $297 million for majority ownership of Tidal. In January 2017, Sprint Corporation bought 33% of Tidal for a reported $200 million. In March 2015, Aspiro was acquired by Project Panther Bidco Ltd., which relaunched the service with a mass-marketing campaign, promoting it as the first artist-owned streaming service. Tidal claims to pay the highest percentage of royalties to music artists and songwriters within the music streaming market. It offers two levels of service: Tidal HiFi (up to CD quality – FLAC-based 16-bit/44.1 kHz) and Tidal HiFi Plus (up to MQA – 24-bit/352.8 kHz). With distribution agreements with all three major record labels and many independent labels, Tidal claims to provide access to more than 80 million tracks and 350,000 music videos. Tidal is now majority-owned by Block, Inc., an American payment processing company. Tidal (stylized in all caps) is a Norwegian-American music streaming service, launched in 2014 by Swedish public company Aspiro.

The majority of recently released Trainers will do all the legwork for you, but if you’re using an older Trainer you may need to tweak some files before you can play around with some The Long Dark cheats. You can download a cheat trainer, install a mod that lets you access the developer console, or use something like WeMod, which is free ( since most of them cost a premium) and uses an app to store your cheats in one handy spot where they can be turned on and off at will. Also, it's worth noting that these modification options are only available on PC for the time being, so unfortunately you can't enjoy these The Long Dark cheats Xbox One Bros and Sony Ponys.Ĭurrently, there are three options at your disposal for cheats. Instead, you need to jump through a few extra hoops outside of the game in order to get them up and running. When It comes to using cheats for this game, unfortunately, you can’t just look up The Long Dark cheat codes on a forum or hit buttons in a specific sequence. Though things can be pretty brutal for new players, so if you want to take some of the strain off so you can sit back and enjoy the story, or just explore the world, then here are a few of the best cheats for the Long Dark to make the brutal winter wastes a bit more hospitable. With another episode, an unnamed “Part Five” still sitting in the pipeline for a launch in the future, now is as good a time as any to pick up The Long Dark. So you need to survive and escape the lunacy and tyranny that follows. It’s another narrative-driven addition that takes place in a frozen and abandoned prison that’s being run by the prisoners, their leader of which is quite the unhinged madman. The new episode is their fourth piece of DLC and it’s called “Fury, Then Silence”. Updated December 5, 2021, by Matthew Mckeown: Things have not been quiet in the cold frozen north as The Long Dark has once again come out of hibernation to drop another piece of story-driven content to its episodic levels. So with that in mind here are a few of the best cheats that you can get your hands on for The Long Dark. Whilst the game itself doesn’t have dedicated cheats, there are mods that allow access to the developer console and trainers that provide a selection of cheats to play around with. RELATED: The Long Dark: Things Beginners Should Do First Still for new players that are struggling to make progress or veterans looking for ways to mess around with the game, loading in a cheat or two is always acceptable. With the constant threat of your save file being deleted should you die, it can often feel like a long uphill battle in The Long Dark, which is also part of its appeal.

Timi risk score stemi9/24/2023 Although these models were validated and are commonly accepted tools, concerns have been raised recently because most traditional risk stratifications were developed 20 years ago using randomized controlled trial (RCT) data before the introduction of drug-eluting stents and newer generation antiplatelets 11. GRACE and ACTION-GWTG presented a common model for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), whereas TIMI suggested two distinct risk stratifications. Traditional risk stratification was based on risk score systems, such as the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI), global registry of acute coronary events (GRACE), and acute coronary treatment and intervention outcomes network-Get With The Guidelines (ACTION-GWTG), which extracts the weight from the regression model 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. A prediction of the severity and prognosis is vital for identifying patients at high risk and providing intensive treatment and monitoring 3. Overall, the performance of the predictive model could be improved, particularly for long-term mortality in NSTEMI, from the ML algorithm rather than using more clinical predictors.Īcute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a leading cause of mortality despite recent advances in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) based on the use of drug-eluting stents and pharmacotherapy, including beta-blockers and the renin-angiotensin system blocker 1, 2. In contrast, the areas under the curves (AUC) of the ML models for non-STEMI (NSTEMI) in predicting the in-hospital, 3-month, and 12-month mortality were 0.889, 0.849, and 0.860, respectively, which were superior to the TMs, which had corresponding AUCs of 0.873, 0.795, and 0.808. The performance of the ML models in predicting the mortality of patients with an ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) was comparable to the TMs. The endpoints were the in-hospital mortality of 14,183 participants and the three- and 12-month mortality in patients who survived at discharge. This study developed ML-based models (logistic regression with regularization, random forest, support vector machine, and extreme gradient boosting) and compared their performance in predicting the short- and long-term mortality of patients with AMI with those of TMs with comparable predictors. Nevertheless, research on predicting the risk in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has been limited and showed inconsistency in the performance of ML models versus traditional models (TMs). Machine learning (ML) has been suggested to improve the performance of prediction models. |
