Membranophones (Stretched Membrane Percussion) The earliest term used in archives and other writings to denote a string keyboard instrument. Its exact meaning is still the subject of debate and research, but it is probable that most references are to a clavichord. There appears to be no Italian equivalent of the name Farmer suggested that it is derived from the Arabic ‘al-shaqira’ and tentatively identified this as a virginal, but there is no supporting evidence. Some writers identified the chekker as an upright harpsichord (i.e. a Clavicytherium), since a letter written to Juan I of Aragon in 1388 referred to ‘an instrument seeming like organs, that sounds with strings’, but the instrument was not named. Galpin ( Grove4, suppl.) believed that the Dulce melos described by Arnaut de Zwolle ( c1440) was identical with the chekker. However, instruments with hammer action, such as the dulce melos, appear to have been rare, whereas the name ‘chekker’ appears frequently, and there is no evidence to support this identification. Galpin further suggested that the chekker’s name was derived from the fact that the action was ‘checked’, in the sense that the motion of its keys was stopped by a fixed rail this is unconvincing and could in any case apply to a clavichord, a harpsichord or a virginal.

Villagers and heroes clunky9/24/2023 I tried some new games like Adventure Quest 3D, and it's cool. it's truly sad because they could have owned the future of mobile MMORPGs. There still are some players, but its nothing like it used to be. Gameloft does not make new content for them. So now both OaC1 and OaC2 are considered pretty dead. ![]() Until Gameloft basically straight up abandoned it for their Sequel back in 2015, which turned out to be what I would call horrible and quite a flop. And it didn't have this autoplay BS that's so common now. It wasn't just a faceroll like so many games today. Dungeons required skilled players and sometimes would take an hour or longer to complete. So, this was an AMAZING game at the time since it was like WoW in your pocket, where you can run dungeons with friends or randoms and it was actually quite challenging in the end game. In so many ways it felt like a direct rip from World of Warcraft, even when it came to buildings like the inns (inns were pretty much a complete copy from the game) and and main cities, it felt a LOT like World of Warcraft. Unfortunately, given my life being a 31yo dad with a 3yo daughter, full time job, and several other aldulting responsibilities, I could not divulge as much time as I really wanted to anymore so I had to quit.Īnyway, around 2011 timeframe, I discovered a game called Order and Chaos for mobile created by Gameloft. I played back in Vanilla up through Cataclysm, and recently played Classic up until AQ released. It won't be for everyone because graphics mean so much to some. But the storyline, game mechanics, and overall content makes up for it. Some mobile games came out that were similar to it, like Order and Chaos (which felt like a direct WoW rip off, which was great, but Gameloft abandoned it) and Adventure Quest 3D, but absolutely nowhere near what this game is and capable of.Įdit: This game doesn't have vividly stunning graphics like the rest of its competitors on the Play Store. TL DR- This game is unbelievable and essentially a mobile version of WoW, and more.

Houzz master bedroom with bay window9/24/2023 ![]() The range of sheer to opaque fabrics in stunning colors and textures was just the tipping point after she had seen how the Pirouette shades could close to increase privacy and adjust to let in just the right amount of light. ![]() ![]() She simply fell in love with the fabric choices for the Hunter Douglas Pirouette Shades. We turned to the top-notch dressings with room-darkening capabilities and my client found the one. We started by looking at the wide array of Silhouette Window Shadings, which are always a great option for bedrooms, but this unique room design required a little extra. The walls were quite literally covered in sunshine! In order to create the best sleeping environment for my client, we needed something to creatively calm the outside light. With sun shining into three wide windows resembling wide-set bay windows, this room was no stranger to morning light. That was just that case for this client’s bedroom, and just the reason! A bedroom is to remain serene, quiet, and dark in the evenings and early mornings to give you the most restful sleep you can get! If you have undressed windows, or under dressed windows with blinds or shades that are letting in too much light at night, your sleep can be negatively affected. When dressing the windows in a master bedroom, it’s important to remember the functionality of the pieces in addition to their beauty. Hunter Douglas Pirouette ® window shadings
