Of course, and this almost goes without saying, in order for us to be able to be continuously on top of the tests as we are and update the software for future pilots, each user needs to pay his own fee for this software. We'd rather leave it up to the motivated individual not to need to subsidize others in this way-that said, we believe that conscientious users of this software have a 100% pass rate at the time of this writing. ![]() If somebody "guarantees" you success on the MCA/MCH/MCI with their method, then all they are doing is subsidizing the failures with their higher fees. If somebody guarantees you "exact" questions, then they are exaggerating. Of course, the FAA does occasionally change the questions and we are on top of this as much as anybody else, but we can no more guarantee that this this software will have exactly 100% of the questions than anybody else can. So, if you study from this software, you will likely do very well on this software. We work full-time to try to make sure that we have the latest and greatest exact questions that will likely appear on your MCN/MCI written test. Technically, the MCN test is subset of our regular FAA commercial pilot offering and the MCI tests is a modified subset of the Flight / Ground Instructor offering.Ībout the Written Test and how to use our apps We offer the most cost effective way of preparing for these tests. Our software can prepare you for both type 1 and type 2 tests. It is our understanding that the exact Flight Instructor certificate / ratings depends on your actual military flight experience (for example, whether you get instrument, helicopter, multiengine, etc instructor privileges) but we welcome your feedback and clarifications. You get an FAA Flight Instructor Certificate by taking the FAA Military Competence Instructor (MCI) test.

![]() git-gc), Mercurial does not require such maintenance. Git requires periodic maintenance of repositories (i.e. There has been a lot of work to make Git more portable, and the results have been positive. That was probably true at the time, but nowadays msysGit works perfectly fine. Mercurial is Python based, and the official distribution runs cleanly under Windows (as well as Linux, Mac OS X, etc). Operations that normally felt instantaneous on Linux or Mac OS X took several tenths of a second on Windows. Based on limited testing, the MinGW port appeared to be completely functional, but a little sluggish. A MinGw based port of Git is gaining popularity, but Windows still remains a “second class citizen” in the world of Git. Git has a strong Linux heritage, and the official way to run it under Windows is to use cygwin, which is far from ideal from the perspective of a Windows user. For people that have not been tainted by CVS/Subversion, it might be easier to learn Git. IMO it’s perpetuating bad habits and mental models. The last point is that Mercurial is easier for people migrating from Subversion and CVS that is true, but personally I don’t consider that’s a good thing. If you type ‘git’ only the important ones would be listed. Regarding the amount of commands, most of them can be ignored. However, it’s worth noting that the best documentation is online (not the official one) (according to the survey). Plus, the documentation is not bad, as people answered ‘ How useful have you found the following forms of Git documentation?‘ very positively. In the last Git user survey, people answered the question ‘ Have you found Git easy to learn?’ mostly as ‘Reasonably easy’ and few as ‘Hard’ or ‘Very Hard’. That is a value judgement and while that seems to be the consensus, I don’t think Git is much more difficult than Mercurial. Mercurial’s terminology and commands are also a closer to Subversion and CVS, making it familiar to people migrating from those systems. Mercurial’s documentation tends to be more complete and easier for novices to read. Git has more commands and options, the volume of which can be intimidating to new users. Git has a steeper learning curve than Mercurial due to a number of factors. Here I’ll tackle what Google considered to be Mercurial advantages. So, let’s start with Google’s analysis where they compared Git with Mercurial in order to choose what to use in Google Code. Note: I’m a long-time advocate of Git, and a contributor to the project, so I am biased (but I hope my conclusions are not). So, here is a comparison between Git and Mercurial. Nowadays it’s pretty clear that Git is the most widely used DSCM out there, but Mercurial is the second. ![]() I’ve analyzed several of them and so far I’ve only done the comparison with Monotone ( here). have been thinking on comparing Git to other SCM’s. ![]() =/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Applications/FileMerge.app/Contents/MacOS/FileMerge =-left $other -right $local -ancestor $base -merge $output When I run hg config, which is supposed to show the combined settings from all hgrc files, it does the following entries, but I do not know where they come from =/Developer/Applications/Utilities/FileMerge.app/Contents/MacOS/FileMerge Pom_merge.executable = /Users/username/codebases/apm/hg/secondbase/tools/hg-tools/pom_merge.pyĮditor="/Applications/kdiff3.app/Contents/MacOS/kdiff3" Pom_merge.args = -o $output $base $local $other Kdiff3.args = $base $local $other -o $output The configuration in ~/.hgrc looks as follows Ĭmd.kdiff3="/Applications/kdiff3.app/Contents/MacOS/kdiff3" I do not want hg to use the file merge tool and have not done any change for this to happen except install xcode.

Grant), Land of Snowflakes and Knightley’s Sugar Plum, Land of Cavities. Clara meets three regents: Hawthorne (Eugenio Derbez) of the Land of Flowers Shiver (Richard E. They make their way past a pair of prissy palace guards (Omid Djalili and Jack Whitehall) who bicker like peevish boyfriends in tiresome shtick that falls flat, like much of the strained comedy. Phillip whisks Clara off to the palace from where the realms are ruled, which production designer Guy Hendrix Dyas renders as an architectural jumble of Russian exteriors, an Eastern courtyard and standard haute European interiors - mirroring the movie’s overall mishmash of styles. She also has her first brush with the banished Mother Ginger ( Helen Mirren), whose fearsome hideout inside a giant mechanical figure in a big top circus-tent gown is straight out of The Wizard of Oz. He warns her against following the thieving mouse into the dangerous Fourth Realm, but Clara is fearless, even when being pursued by a rodent infestation that assumes the mammoth form of the Mouse King. Phillip informs Clara that Marie was the queen of the realms, which makes her the princess. She meets a strategic ally in Captain Phillip Hoffman, a Nutcracker soldier apparently come to life, though you’d hardly know it from Jayden Fowora-Knight’s wooden performance. There she finds the music box key, which is promptly snatched by a mouse. Clara’s thread leads her to a snow-covered parallel world where time moves much faster - cue lots of clockwork mechanisms, a la Hugo. Rather than just hand out Christmas gifts at the ball, he traditionally sets up a treasure-hunt web of golden threads with the names of each child attending. He raised Marie after she was orphaned at a young age. The family’s arrival at an annual Christmas Eve ball also packs visual splendor as Linus Sandgren’s camera reveals a breathtaking shot of couples decked out in costume designer Jenny Beavan’s impressive period finery, whirling around a dance floor to the romantic strains of “Waltz of the Flowers.” But as soon as Morgan Freeman appears, in familiar “twinkly-eyed, wise, benevolent geezer” mode as the evening’s host, Drosselmeyer, the movie’s wearying more-is-more aesthetic starts to chafe.ĭrosselmeyer, an inventor of fantastical gadgets, is Clara’s godfather. ![]() Much of this early setup has a pleasingly old-fashioned feel, with the always excellent Macfadyen suggesting tender emotional depths to be explored. 'Nutcracker and the Four Realms' Team on Diversifying the Classic Tale Clara receives an ornate egg-shaped music box with a cryptic note from her mother that reads, “Everything you need is inside.” But the box is locked, with no key. It’s Christmas Eve, and the children’s sorrowful, distant father (Matthew Macfadyen) summons them downstairs to present them with gifts left for them by their recently deceased mother Marie (Anna Madeley). Clever Clara Stahlbaum and her young brother Fritz (Tom Sweet) are up in the attic of the family home using toys and the laws of physics to rig a complicated mouse trap, foreshadowing a key plot point later on. In the opening sequence, we’re in Harry Potter territory as an owl soars and swoops over Olde London Town, or a mostly CG version of it, setting the Christmastime scene via a massive decorated tree in a public square. She also flutters about on dragonfly wings, just like Tinker Bell. If the conception of the character owes something to Elizabeth Banks’ Effie Trinket in the Hunger Games series, well, that’s consistent with a movie that constantly recalls superior inspirations. ![]() And Keira Knightley brings a mischievous campy spirit to the Sugar Plum Fairy, gliding around crowned by an upsweep of cotton-candy curls and speaking in a breathy, excitable squeak until she reveals her not entirely unexpected petulant side. She’s feisty and determined enough to appeal to contemporary sensibilities, yet not so much that she pulls you out of the old-world reality that grounds the story. ![]() The movie’s best asset is young lead Mackenzie Foy as Clara, a 14-year-old Victorian girl with the sharp logistical mind of a budding engineer. The aim is to race all of one's pieces into the star corner on the opposite side of the before the opponents do the same. Take your place by the board, and try to collect all the pieces of your opponent. Very popular around the world, checkers is an entertaining game that players of all ages can enjoy. The game is over when a player wins by removing all of their opponent’s pieces or making it impossible for their opponent to legally move a piece. Chinese checkers (variant of Halma) is a classic board game that can be played by two to six people Chinese Checkers is a well-known strategy board game. In Master Checkers Multiplayer, you can play the classic tabletop game online, against other players. ![]() Kings can move forwards or backwards, but must stay on the same color as the rest of the pieces. Place another piece of the same color on top of it to signify that it is a king. If a player moves their piece all the way to the opposite side of the board, that piece becomes a king. If another jump is available after a piece has been removed, the player that captured the first piece must jump the next available piece. Once a piece has been jumped, it is removed from the game. ![]() In order to jump a piece, the dark square on the opposite diagonal side of the piece must be unoccupied. As players move their pieces, they want to capture their opponent's pieces by jumping over them diagonally on the board. Pieces cannot be moved on to the white squares, and a piece may not move backwards. Then, players take alternating turns moving pieces forward diagonally on the dark squares. Each row should have 4 pieces, and each piece should be placed on a dark square. To play, first each player sets up their 12 pieces in the 3 rows at the bottom of their side. The goal of the game is to capture each of your opponents pieces, called “men,” or to make it impossible for them to move a piece.

Here is my best approximation based on as many similar resources that I could find. It's also important to note that not all developers release the map size, and some gamers might have a different perception of a map's actual size. Here’s our list of the 37 Largest Open World Video Games by Map Size and, because franchises specialize in creating open-worlds with such large maps, you’ll see a few names from the same franchise (Assassin's Creed and Elder Scrolls, for example, appear on this list several times). Some video game publishing companies like Bethesda Softworks, for example, specialize in creating games with open-world maps, some of which are absolutely mammoth in size. While quests within an open-world game might be linear in their progression, they’ll take you all over the map, allowing you to visit and revisit locations. ![]() Self-explanatory in the title, open-world video games feature large maps that are available for exploration at any point of the game (never mind that most open-world maps feature difficult-to-defeat enemies unless your character has leveled up from “noob” status).Ĭlassical video games often featured a linear progression through map and story, which meant that gamers traveled from point A to point B to complete a single quest. When it comes to determining the size of a video game’s map, few gaming genres compare to open-world video games. ![]() This allows you to develop your characters even further.
