![]() LICA has also established free Annual Open Studios events for the public to visit. LICA has acted as a forum for its members, as well as other art organizations, to learn the ropes of grant applications, marketing and publicizing original work, and coping with legal complications that arise in the art world. The organization represents more than 250 artists and has provided its members, and others, spaces in which to exhibit their visual art and sculpture, halls to perform their dance and music, and theaters to show their videos and original plays. Long Island City Artists was established in the 1980s and for the last 35 years has been serving as an advocate for local artists. I can testify to its unique place and function in the New York City/Queens art world. LICA, as it is widely known, is an artist-founded arts advocacy group of which I’ve been an active member since 1987, and that I am proud to have served pro bono for over nine years as board president. We all have much to do, people to see, and gifts to give, but I am asking that you also consider making a donation to an organization that I truly value, Long Island City Artists, Inc. It is the end of the year and we are in the midst of the holiday season. LIC Artists (LIC-A) brings the arts to the community while serving local artists in the process. ![]()

Human fall flat skins1/4/2024 ![]() ![]() Mature lice survive by feeding on human blood and live exclusively inside clothing. Without a constant source of blood a louse will die within two to five days. The female body louse lives for around four weeks and lays approximately eight eggs per day. Seven days after hatching the egg matures into an adult louse. If the infested item of clothing is removed at night and the eggs are deprived of continuous warmth, it will take longer for the eggs to hatch. The eggs take five to 14 days to hatch, depending on the availability of the host’s body heat. A gluey secretion anchors each egg to clothing fibres, or sometimes to body hairs. Lice lay their eggs in the seams of any clothing worn next to the skin, such as underwear. ![]() Body louse eggs (nits) are small, white and oval-shaped. They are greyish or brown in colour and range in size from 2mm to 5mm. What are body lice?īody lice are flat wingless insects with six legs, each ending in a claw. However, scratching the itch caused by louse saliva can cause secondary bacterial infection of the skin.īody lice are different to head lice (that infest the scalp) or pubic lice (that infest the pubic hair). In Australia, body lice are not responsible for the spread of any infectious disease-causing organisms, and are uncommon. In overcrowded, unhygienic conditions where there is no opportunity to wash and launder clothing on a regular basis body lice can be responsible for the spread of epidemic infections such as epidemic typhus. Body lice can spread from person to person and are normally associated with crowded and unhygienic living conditions, particularly in conditions of social upheaval such as natural disasters or wartime. Body lice (Pediculus humanus corporis) are small blood-sucking insects that live on the body of infested humans and in their clothing or bedding, particularly the seams. ![]() Company of heroes playable factions1/4/2024 ![]() ![]() ![]() The Panzer Elite have three "tactics," similar to the Wehrmacht's doctrines, and they are: Scorched Earth Tactics, Luftwaffe Tactics and Tank Destroyer Tactics. Their Panzer units are similar to that of the Wehrmacht, but they are more mobile, have better speed, and are able to lock down to increase the accuracy and firing rate of their main guns. Panzer Elite utilizes vehicles such as open-top half-tracks to carry infantry and reinforce the front, which fight along their fast-moving Panzers, which are designed to hit hard and at speed. Unlike the Wehrmacht, the Panzer Elite are a highly-mobile, naturally "blitz" force, emphasizing speed, mobility and vicious assaults to overwhelm the enemy. The Company of Heroes update Opposing Fronts saw the addition of the Panzer Elite faction to the Axis. These three doctrines are the Defensive Doctrine, Blitzkrieg Doctrine and Terror Doctrine. Axis commanders can gain the upper hand in battle through the use of three doctrines, which can allow them to deploy superior units, such as Stormtroopers, Tiger tanks, and the superheavy King Tiger tanks. Axis armored assault vehicles (or Panzers) are slower and less mobile than their Allied counterparts, but employ superior firepower and heavier armor to hold their own in battle. ![]() The Axis Pioneer Squads function as multipurpose engineers, capable of constructing base defenses and production buildings, as well as the all-important Kampfkraft Center. Wehrmacht forces are essentially quality-oriented, focusing on smaller, more efficient squads to get the job done, such as Grenadiers. However, they make up for it with superior firepower, technology and the best armor units in the game. The Axis faction, as a general rule, is much more expensive to maintain than the Allied faction, and often field far fewer units. In Company of Heroes, the Axis include military elements of Nazi Germany, such as the Wehrmacht, Wehrmacht Ostheer and Panzer Elite. The Axis or the Axis Powers is a playable faction in Company of Heroes and fought during World War II. ![]() Disney magic kingdom tickets price1/3/2024 ![]() Disney World raising prices on daily tickets and annual passes.2010’s Ticket CostsĢ013: $95 for Magic Kingdom, $90 for other parksĢ014: $99 for Magic Kingdom, $94 for other parksĢ015: $105 for Magic Kingdom, $97 for other parksĢ017: $124 Peak, $115 Regular, $107 ValueĢ018: $129 Peak, $119 Regular, $109 ValueĢ019: $159 Holiday, $139 Peak, $125 Regular, $117 Value, $1’sĪs Disney World has seen park closures and re-openings throughout 20, the prices have largely stayed the same with the lowest tickets costing $109 and the highest cost $159 during the holidays.

Cinderella Castle ![]() Sunshine helicopters big island1/3/2024 ![]() The captain did circle the areas of interest to allow all to see the points of interest from the side windows. I think the 4 passengers in the back were also comfortable although they would not have had as good a view. The helicopter, a WhisperSTAR was quiet and very comfortable even though I weigh about 250 so there is lots of leg and butt and shoulder room. ![]() If you can afford it, do it for sure! We paid the extra fee to secure the 2 front passenger seats which ensured we got a full view and it was worth the total of $1120 spent. Given the very rugged terrain, it is only by air that you could possibly really see this island and only a helicopter can have a slow enough airspeed so that you could really see what there is to see. Kona is defined in almost every way by its volcanic past and present. Go with a more reasonable flight if you want a helicopter trip. The pilot never told us there was a volume control on the earphones. Also, they played really loud annoying music the entire trip. I probably saw 20% of what everyone else saw. All I could see was what directly out of the right window.The pilot would explain what he saw from his view to the left, do a 30 second view for the right side then move on. There was a bar right over my head so I couldn't see above me. ![]() I am a petite woman and was on the back row. And If they seat you in the right hand seat - demand your money back - you will see very little.

This was the most expensive of all the helicopter tours we looked at, but we were promised the most up to date copters with guaranteed views. ![]() ![]() The larger and heavier the tool is, the sturdier and more powerful the tractor needs to be. ![]() Tools can only be used when they are attached to a tractor.

An extra feature, named Grub timeout, has also been added and controls how many settings you've got during boot operation to use the Grub interface for switching between operating systems. It is also from this app's main window that a user can increase or decrease the value of boot timeout. You can access the partition list, obtain system info and run diagnostics to make sure everything looks and feels right. The application features plenty of settings and options you might want to check out. This program can very easily help individuals alter EFI boot order, although you'll have to disable Secure Boot for access to be granted to the app. ![]() If you thought this application was somewhat old simply because of its basic looks, think again. ![]() The app does offer extended support for booting Linux distros. This particular program will help users manage multiple OS partitions together with the boot sequence they will require especially with combinations that include Windows, Mac, or Linux. Grub2Win does have a rather enigmatic name for an application that seems to be more of a tool for fans of multiple boot setups. ![]() The Avengers for ios instal free1/2/2024 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() On July 11, the iPhone 3G was released and came pre-loaded with support for App Store. The iPhone App Store opened on July 10, 2008. However, backlash from developers prompted the company to reconsider, with Jobs announcing in October 2007 that Apple would have a software development kit available for developers by February 2008. While originally developing iPhone prior to its unveiling in 2007, Apple's then- CEO Steve Jobs did not intend to let third-party developers build native apps for iOS, instead directing them to make web applications for the Safari web browser. History Download on the App Store badge as of 2017 In October 2021, the Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets (ACM) concluded that in-app commissions from Apple’s App Store are anti-competitive and would demand that Apple change its in-app payment system policies. While Apple touts the role of the App Store in creating new jobs in the "app economy" and claims to have paid over $155 billion to developers, the App Store has also attracted criticism from developers and government regulators that it operates a monopoly and that Apple's 30% cut of revenues from the store is excessive. As of 2021, the store features more than 1.8 million apps. The number of apps peaked at around 2.2 million in 2017, but declined slightly over the next few years as Apple began a process to remove old or 32-bit apps. ![]() The App Store was opened on July 10, 2008, with an initial 500 applications available. Apps can be downloaded on the iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad, and some can be transferred to the Apple Watch smartwatch or 4th-generation or newer Apple TVs as extensions of iPhone apps. The store allows users to browse and download approved apps developed within Apple's iOS SDK. The App Store is an app marketplace developed and maintained by Apple Inc., for mobile apps on its iOS and iPadOS operating systems. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Note: A licensed version provides more features, and in order to get your hands on those features buy a license to support the software developer.
