![]() The WAZA list will simply help me to know that any zoo I am adding is almost guaranteed to be a legitimate establishment. For example, approximately 2,700 animal exhibitors in the USA have a USDA license, but fewer than 10 percent have earned AZA accreditation. Also keep in mind that just because a zoo or sanctuary is not a WAZA member does not mean it's a terrible place. I have never been to any of these places so I'm simply going by what I have read online. If you have a problem with any of these zoos being on this list, please say so in the comments. I'm hoping people who live in these countries or have been to these zoos will help to fill in the gaps. For zoos that I'm unsure of, I will leave a note saying so. Some countries websites are not in English so it's hard to find accreditation lists. So again, please do your own research before visiting any zoo or wildlife facility. This is due to cultural reasons or lack of resources. For example the South East Asian Zoos Association (SEAZA) is a WAZA member and yet the standards for these zoos is significantly lower than what you will find in Europe, the USA or Japan. Similar standards generally apply across all WAZA members, but keep in mind the standards can be very different depending on what country you are in. This 2011 Washington Post article gives a quick explanation of the standards a facility needs to be an AZA member. For Japan, the Japanese Association of Zoos and Aquariums (JAZA). ![]() For the America's you would check the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA). So for example if a zoo is in Europe you should check to see if it is a member of the European Association of Zoos and Aquaria (EAZA). You can find all affiliate members listed here. To provide leadership and support for zoos, aquariums, and partner organizations of the world in animal care and welfare, conservation of biodiversity, environmental education and global sustainability. ![]() In order to become a member, a facility must meet certain rigid standards. The worldwide membership of WAZA includes more than 330 zoos and aquariums from over 50 countries, associations and affiliate organisations. I will try to make this list almost entirely comprised of World Association of Zoos and Aquariums (WAZA) members or their affiliate organization members. If you ever see animals being treated poorly or something that makes you uncomfortable, don't hesitate to ask questions or notify the proper authorities. You want your money to benefit the local community and conservation efforts. It is important to make sure your money is going to a place that treats the animals well and provides education and conservation benefits. Disclaimer: Always do your own research before visiting a zoo or sanctuary.

![]() The lenses were printed directly onto a CMOS camera sensor. These cameras could be used in self-driving cars and smart glasses, Giessen said, to make highly detailed scans of the world around them.Įditor’s note: This article has been corrected to indicate that foveated refers to the part of the eye that’s responsible for detailed vision. Quarles says that the next steps for this technology would be to determine the benefits these lenses have over conventional cameras in terms of cost and image quality. ![]() “The strength of this demonstration lies in the fact that they have proved miniaturization and functionality while producing strong image quality.” said Gregory Quarles, chief scientist of the Optical Society who wasn’t involved with this study. “Hopefully, as technology advances, more improvements can be made in this area.” “A key challenge, as recognized by the authors, is the fabrication time and cost, making mass production difficult at the moment.” said Yizheng Zhu, a physicist at Virginia Tech who wasn’t involved in the study. The intricate process of shaping each lens takes between 15 minutes and a few hours, depending on the size, and the end result may still have imperfections. One current limitation is the speed of manufacturing. Tests performed by the researchers show that their compact, birdeye lenses had higher clarity than a comparable single lens. This imaging technique has a range of benefits, such as reducing the computer processing power needed for virtual reality hardware and generating thumbnails for satellite imagery. Foveation in this case means that the focus varies in different points on the same picture. The pictures produced by the camera are foveated, a reference to the part of the eye that’s responsible for detailed vision. “So it’s not something that you can get at your local computer store.” “The printer costs well over 400,000 Euros ($429,000)” said Giessen. A similar manufacturing technique is used to make modern dental implants. The printer uses laser pulses - that last just one quadrillionth of a second - to melt and shape the plastic into the perfect lens. The lenses are arranged in small clusters and range from wide to narrow angles. Using ultrathin plastic and a 3-D printer, their experimental lenses are printed directly onto a sensor from a Raspberry Pi camera. “Using our sensor, you can zoom into the image without losing anything, because of the higher density of pixels.” “If you take a snapshot with your smartphone, and you want to magnify it, you cannot see the details anymore because they are pixelated,” said University of Stuttgart physicist Harald Giessen. They turned to bird vision because eagle and falcon eyes create a picture that is highly detailed in the center, while the surrounding area is blurrier. The lens structures were created by physicist Harald Giessen and his colleagues at the University of Stuttgart in Germany. Now, miniature lenses that mimic the eyes of predatory birds could shrink a camera’s size to less than 1/100th of an inch - and in the meantime, revolutionize a host of compact technologies. As anyone who has bought a smartphone in the last few years can tell you, cameras are getting smaller and smaller. Or choose in-store pickup at our toy store.

Try not to overuse fp, and if you're suffering, eat a jelly ultra. About half of my battle against Bonetail it was just him and Mario, so don't think it's over when your partner bites the bullet. If your partner dies, obviously switch, but don't worry too much about them. If your partner is dying, either sweet feast or switch to another. I wouldn't recommend flurry I REALLY wouldn't recommend the baby yoshi Ms Mowz can pierce the defense with love slap Bobbery's bomb is fairly powerful. With Goombella, keep using rally wink to keep Mario fighting, or if you're very confident, multibonk. This can do 7 damage each turn, well worth it, seeing as Bonetail has got defense. With Mario, keep using power smash on Bonetail's foot. Bonetail has lots of status affecting attacks that can make you asleep, confused and frozen. You should equip: Feeling fine ( Definitely) Power smash ( Definitely) Power bounce ( Definitely) Hp plus/fp plus Lucky day and other dodging moves ( Definitely) Peekaboo ( Definitely) Once you think you're ready, go down. THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT!!! Once you reach floor 99 ( keep a close eye on what floor you're on by reading the signs on the left) defeat the enemy, and unequip most of the badges. Because the enemies get tough, I found using clock out is the way forward, as it gives you a chance to go mental at them with no retaliation. ( On a side note, don't just pass up the money that enemies leave.) Once you get to the eighties and nineties, the enemies get very tough, and it's floor 90 that you might use 1 or 2 jelly ultras. ![]() I don't recommend buying from the goods man Charlieton except for using his health replenishers immediately- they cost WAY too much and some of that money is needed for movers. Whenever you see a mover, definitely, definitely move 5 floors UNLESS it would make you miss a treasure chest. You don't want to be wasting those life shrooms. If your partner's health drops, keep using sweet treat/feast to keep it up, or switch partners. ![]() Once you get to the point where your health is constantly in the 30's, try using sweet feast to keep that health up. If your health/fp begins to drop by about 10, use sweet treat to recover the small amounts ( best done towards the end of a battle) and if you keep using sweet treat, you'll be able to quickly refill your star power with a few stylish moves and keep recovering any lost health. Use absolutely NO items until at least floor 40-45 ( unless you're in a really tight spot), and definitely try not to waste your fp until about floor 25. When you begin, use attacks that require no fp. ![]() It worked first time, so try to stick to it. Here's the tactic I used to beat the pit. You could equip: Feeling fine Ice smash Head rattle And various other attack badges. ![]() Definitely equip: Lucky start, Close call, Lucky day, Fire drive, Multibounce, Power smash, All or Nothing (VERY IMPORTANT) Peekaboo (VERY IMPORTANT) And fp/hp plus. I beat the pit with these items: Jelly Ultra ( Jammin' Jelly + Ultra shroom) 圆 Whacka Bump x 2 Life Shroom x 2 Have Mario around level 27, with about 55 health, 50 fp, and 30 bp. The most important is Vivian, then Bobbery. I recommend having Goombella, Baby yoshi, Bobbery, Vivian on the highest level. Thankfully, this portion only lasts a short time before switching to traditional Serious Sam gameplay. The first few hours play more like a pseudo-survival game where Sam is exploring dark mazes and trying to spot enemies with his flashlight. Most Serious Sam games would introduce new weapons and enemies every few minutes, but this Sam is different. Sam has to find his separated team while battling hordes of enemies armed with only a sledgehammer and pistol. Unfortunately, a rocket hits Sam’s transport and his team gets separated in the small town. Serious Sam 3 begins with the titular Sam being flown to a small desert town to theoretically kill many enemies with a military unit. ![]() Killing Enemies with Rockets Never Gets Old The result is an unbalanced but decent experience that sometimes feels like two different games. Serious Sam 3 features these main concepts for a majority of the game but tries to combine them with shadows, flashlights, and smaller weapons. Instead of more enemies, there should have been more colors in the palette and more variety in the level design.Serious Sam has generally been associated with three main concepts – large open areas, mass amounts of enemies, and running backwards while frantically shooting these enemies. It’s an interesting case study on the whole saying “less is more.” The dev team clearly believes “more is more” and the funny thing is that sometimes they’re right – other times, a bit of editing on the enemy numbers would have really tightened the experience up. Co-op is more worthwhile, since you’re applying the already decently-fun single-player structure to messing around with friends.īFE has some fantastic moments despite its very low-budget feel and it can be uniquely entertaining in its absurdity and intensity, but we advise players to take it in sips: playing for even a few hours at a time becomes exhausting and tedious. Gameplay-wise the competitive component offers nothing you couldn’t get out of Quake III, and that game has much more interesting weapons and map designs. It is, though, more of the same and Serious Sam has never been about depth – it’s about slaughtering a million ridiculous enemies, so taking that same template and applying it to small multiplayer scenarios is less than inspiring. If, for some reason, the single-player campaign isn’t enough for you, BFE features some surprisingly beefy multiplayer offerings, with multiple co-op modes and an impressive array of competitive modes. It’s supposed to be an old-school throwback to when FPS games were about nonstop killing and endless circle-strafing or running-backward-and-strafing. Again, this is such a weird stylistic choice because Serious Sam is supposed to be the respite from “modern” shooters. The ENTIRE game is a series of brown textures – sand, brick buildings, and so many brown Egyptian ruins that playing this game may make you forget there are any other colors in the rainbow (hey, brown’s in the rainbow, right?). Similarly, while Serious 2 took us to all kinds of lush and colorful environments, BFE returns to Egypt and just lingers there like an unwanted party crasher. ![]() Whereas previous Serious games gave you things like (allow us to quote our review of Serious Sam 2): “clockwork rhinos, mutant footballers, three-headed flaming hounds… witches on broomsticks, Orc-carrying gyrocopters… zombie stockbrokers…” BFE sports a few strange leftovers from previous Serious games, like the iconic headless kamikazes, who run at you screaming while carrying a bomb in each hand, but other than that the enemies have become extremely generic Doom knockoffs: fat ogre-dudes with rocket-launcher arms, cyber-demon mechs with, uh, rocket-launcher arms, scorpion dudes with Gatling-gun arms… man what’s with all the weapon arms? The enemy design, for the most part, is totally uninspired, which is bizarre considering inspired enemies are one of the series’ hallmarks. ![]() ![]() BFE achieves the latter with not much of the former. ![]() Available in several languages, including French, German, English, Japanese, and Spanish.

The Indians, thus deserted by their white allies, soon broke and fled in their turn, disappearing in the forest. Before they had time to reload, the first work was carried and the white men broke and fled, closely pursued by the American troops the enemy was unable to form behind his second line of breastworks, and, completely routed, made the best of his way to the river and crossed to the other side. The line moved forward with fixed bayonets and, although receiving a terrific fire from behind breastworks of fallen trees, charged the British and Canadians. Snelling held his ground with what remained of his little force until the main body formed for the attack. The advance guard, under the command of Captain Snelling, suddenly received from ambush a fierce volley from a mixed force of British, Canadians and Indians, under command of Major Muir of the English army and Tecumseh, the Indian chief. M., August 9th, the command reached the vicinity of Maguago, fourteen miles below Detroit. Colonel Miller, before starting, briefly harangued his troops, saying: "And now, if there is any man in the ranks of this detachment who fears to meet the enemy, let him fall out and stay behind." None fell out. General Hull was prevailed upon later to send an additional force to bring the supplies into camp, and the Fourth Infantry, under the command of the youthful and gallant Lieutenant-Colonel James Miller, was reluctantly ordered upon the duty. Governor Meigs had forwarded a considerable supply of provisions and clothing for the use of the army, and a small detachment of volunteers, sent to escort the supplies to Sandwich, was surprised and routed by a considerable force of Canadians and Indians. A mutinous spirit began to manifest itself on account of this inactivity. On the 12th it crossed the river for "an invasion and conquest of Upper Canada." Camp was established at Sandwich, on the Canadian side of the river, and the troops remained there for nearly a month without making hostile demonstration, although the Canadians and Indians were known to be concentrating at Malden, but thirteen miles down the river. General Hull's command arrived at Detroit on July 6th, after a most arduous and trying march through the forests of Ohio. In obedience to these orders the regiment walked from Vincennes to Cincinnati and thence to Urbana, arriving at the latter place on July 3rd, the day before the receipt of the declaration of war against England. General Hull, on account of his knowledge of the Indians and his former good record, had been given command of all the forces in the Northwest, and the regiment was accordingly ordered to join other troops under his immediate command. ![]() In the spring of 1812 the Indians to the north were causing much trouble and there were strong probabilities of a war with Great Britain, whose agents were identified with the Indian difficulties. |
