  • Rules and Options
    Rules and Options The author has attempted to draw as much as possible from the guidelines provided in the 5th edition Players Handbooks and Dungeon Master's Guide. Statistics for weapons listed in the Dungeon Master's Guide were used to develop the damage scales used in this book. Interestingly, these scales correspond fairly well with the values listed in the d20 Modern books. Game masters should feel free to modify any of the statistics or optional rules in this book as necessary. It is important to remember that Dungeons and Dragons abstracts combat to a degree, and does so more than many other game systems, in the name of playability. For this reason, the subtle differences that exist between many firearms will often drop below what might be called a "horizon of granularity." In D&D, for example, two pistols that real world shooters could spend hours discussing, debating how a few extra ounces of weight or different barrel lengths might affect accuracy, or how different kinds of ammunition (soft-nosed, armor-piercing, etc.) might affect damage, may be, in game terms, almost identical. This is neither good nor bad; it is just the way Dungeons and Dragons handles such things. Who can use firearms? Firearms are assumed to be martial ranged weapons. Characters from worlds where firearms are common and who can use martial ranged weapons will be proficient in them. Anyone else will have to train to gain proficiency— the specifics are left to individual game masters. Optionally, the game master may also allow characters with individual weapon proficiencies to trade one proficiency for an equivalent one at the time of character creation (e.g., monks can trade shortswords for one specific martial melee weapon like a war scythe, rogues can trade hand crossbows for one kind of firearm like a Glock 17 pistol, etc.).

  • TAKING INITIATIVE to CHANGE TOMORROW Message from the Chairman
    Spring 2013 TAKING INITIATIVE TO CHANGE TOMORROW Message from the Chairman Welcome to this issue of UAB Psychiatry. In this issue, we share with you a few of the many successes of our faculty, staff, and trainees, and highlight a broad spectrum of services we provide and accomplishments of our team. One of the critical mandates when I arrived at UAB was to expand our academic mission, with emphasis on the development of our research mission and extramurally funded grant portfolio. In this issue, we showcase our most recent faculty recruit, Dr. Karen Gamble. Dr. Gamble moved late last year from Vanderbilt, and has rapidly established her laboratory in some of our recently renovated state- of-the-art laboratory space housed in the Sparks Building. As you will read, she is truly a translational scientist focusing on our daily rhythms such as sleep that are often profoundly disturbed in a number of psychiatric conditions. While the core of her research is in rodent models, she maintains an interest in clinical questions such as the impact of the ability of nurses working the late shift to adapt to this artificially imposed change in their body’s natural sleep-wake cycle. In addition to introducing Dr. Gamble, we showcase some of the recent research successes of both scientists that I have brought to UAB since my arrival as well as of scientists that have been in the Department longer than my tenure. Hopefully we have captured the excitement that pervades these many laboratories and research teams throughout the Department. Message Contemporary Psychiatry departments are often involved in more activities than many are aware.

  • Choora 2021-08-30 1 Choora
    Choora 2021-10-07 Choora Kolekcja: Kolekcja główna Muzeum: Muzeum broni białej jelopano Właściciel: jelopano Datowanie: 1900 Miejsce pochodzenia: Afganistan Stan eksponatu: Bardzo dobry Opis: Choora - sztylet/puginał, uważany za najbardziej charakterystyczną broń krótką Afganistanu. Jest to broń kłująco – sieczna, raczej niewielkich rozmiarów (przeważnie 30 – 35 cm), choć zdarzają się i bardzo długie egzemplarze. Jest to względnie nowy typ noża, który pojawił się w Afganistanie na początku XX wieku i dość szybko rozpowszechnił wypierając dłuższą broń białą. Na wielu fotografiach i rysunkach/grafikach z XIX wieku często można ujrzeć groźnie patrzących brodatych Afgańczyków uzbrojonych w szable, khybery i karudy. Na żadnym z nich nie odnaleziono wizerunku choory. Pojawiają się one natomiast na fotografiach z XX wieku. Ich wynalezienie i rosnącą popularność wiąże się z szerokim rozpowszechnieniem nowoczesnej wielostrzałowej broni palnej, dzięki której coraz rzadziej dochodziło do walki wręcz. Choorę identyfikuje się historycznie z izolowanymi (w pewnym sensie) afgańskimi plemionami Pasztuńskimi Mahsudów i Wazirów (Waziristan – pogranicze pakistańsko - afgańskie). W Kabulu noże te nazywane są nożami Wazirów (chore). W większości przypadków nóż noszony był tradycyjnie w pochwie za pasem, czasami trafiają się charakterystyczne (również dla karudów) „uprzęże”. Ponieważ choora pojawiła i rozpowszechniła się w XX wieku, do jej konstrukcji używano różnych materiałów – od kości, rogu i mosiądzu w starszych egzemplarzach po aluminium i tworzywa sztuczne. Choory posiadały względnie wąskie rękojeści a wystająca oprawa głowni zastępowała jelec chroniąc dłoń przed ześlizgnięciem się na ostrze. Choory głęboko chowają się w pochwy a charakterystyczne zakrzywione i rozwidlone głowice rękojeści ułatwiały ich wyjęcie. Prezentowany przez mnie egzemplarz jest – w mojej ocenie – jednym ze starszych. Podobnie oprawione egzemplarze kojarzone są z Waziristanem.
