The idea came from my experiences joining an after school RPG club back in my early teens (in the 80s that actually was). This was around the same age an time period of Tales from the Loop so I felt it was a perfect idea to help introduce the players. In Labyrinths & Lizards, their player-characters travel to the North Street Rec Center and play a mini meta-RPG with an NPC named Joshua (who later became a major NPC in our campaign). Players will use their Tales from the Loop PCs skills to roll the dice for their meta-Characters., and each room is designed to help them learn and understand their STATS & SKILLS for the Tales from the Loop game.

In this study, potential physiological mechanisms were examined that may enable nocturnal lizards to counteract the thermal handicap of activity at low temperatures: 1) daily rhythms of metabolic rate, 2) metabolic rate at low and high temperatures, 3) locomotor energetics, and 4) biochemical adaptation.

The objective of our study is to determine the visual and linguistic resources used in the construction of the message. This analysis will allow us to recognize the recurring discursive characteristics, regarding the language used and the elements of visual semiotics, which allow a positive response from the children’s audience. A qualitative methodology was proposed through observation cards and discourse analysis, the linguistic and graphic characteristics present in two seasons of the children’s series were identified. In the series we recognize a simple language, words and phrases that are repeated in all episodes. The message revolves around a problem that one of the heroes must face, the conflicts that this creates for him and how with the support of his friends he overcomes it. The visual semiotic part reinforces the speech, allows the children to identify the colors of the costumes and the special places. The discursive strategies used in the PJ Mask series respond to a series of messages that seek to reinforce values in children, through the formula of continuous repetition of a message, changing the negative to the positive.

    Revitalization of the AM Radio Service ) ) ) )

    Before the FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION Washington, DC In the matter of: ) ) Revitalization of the AM Radio Service ) MB Docket 13-249 ) ) COMMENTS OF REC NETWORKS One of the primary goals of REC Networks (“REC”)1 is to assure a citizen’s access to the airwaves. Over the years, we have supported various aspects of non-commercial micro- broadcast efforts including Low Power FM (LPFM), proposals for a Low Power AM radio service as well as other creative concepts to use spectrum for one way communications. REC feels that as many organizations as possible should be able to enjoy spreading their message to their local community. It is our desire to see a diverse selection of voices on the dial spanning race, culture, language, sexual orientation and gender identity. This includes a mix of faith-based and secular voices. While REC lacks the technical knowledge to form an opinion on various aspects of AM broadcast engineering such as the “ratchet rule”, daytime and nighttime coverage standards and antenna efficiency, we will comment on various issues which are in the realm of citizen’s access to the airwaves and in the interests of listeners to AM broadcast band stations. REC supports a limited offering of translators to certain AM stations REC feels that there is a segment of “stand-alone” AM broadcast owners. These owners normally fall under the category of minority, women or GLBT/T2. These owners are likely to own a single AM station or a small group of AM stations and are most likely to only own stations with inferior nighttime service, such as Class-D stations.

GRUNDY II II II II 8 II II IN TWO VOLS. VOLUME TWO No. 260 EVEWMAN'S ME VOLUME TWO 'As the Kalevala holds up its bright mirror to the life of the Finns moving among the first long shadows of medieval civilization it suggests to our minds the proto-twilight of Homeric Greece. Its historic background is the misty age of feud and foray between the people of Kaleva and their more ancient neighbours of Pohjola, possibly the Lapps. Poetically it recounts the long quest of that singular and prolific talisman, the Sampo, and ends upon the first note of Christianity, the introduction of which was completed in the fourteenth century. Heroic but human, its men and women march boldly through the fifty cantos, raiding, drinking, abducting, outwitting, weep- ing, but always active and always at odds with the very perils that confront their countrymen today: the forest, with its savage animals; its myriad lakes and rocks and torrents; wind, fire, and darkness; and the cold.' From the Introduction to this Every- man Edition by J. B. C. Grundy. The picture on the front of this wrapper by A . Gallen- Kallela illustrates the passage in the 'Kalevala' where the mother of Lemminkdinen comes upon the scattered limbs of her son by the banks of the River of Death.
