For example, a person represented as a node may have attributes like age, gender, salary, etc. In a complex network, we also have attributes or features associated with each node and edge. It is made up of a collection of two generic objects - (1) node: which represents an entity, and (2) edge: which represents the connection between any two nodes. Network or Graph is a special representation of entities which have relationships among themselves. For more details, see this separate blog. It can be thought of as the 4th option in the list discussed below. Update 2nd Feb, 2021: I recently released Jaal, a python package for network visualization. Nodebox for Data Visualization from Lynn ChernyĮTA: Web video of my talk is here on the Pydata vimeo site.Every code from this article is published in this repository. My talk was generally well-received, although I think I flummoxed the stats graphics people a little bit who probably weren't expecting something so "sketchy" from me. Hey, I love those other tools too, and use Matplotlib (and d3 too!) regularly.Ī few quick comments on the Nodebox eco-system: The current focus of the team in Leuven is on Nodebox 3, a block-diagram visual programming tool, not the 2 variants I talked about (Nodebox 1 and Nodebox OpenGL). I think NB3 veers away from usefulness for the data science crowd that might benefit from a Python alternative to Processing. If the enormous success of the java-based Processing is anything to go by, I'm not crazy in thinking a Python tool like it should be huge! After all, it's cuddly Python! So at the end of my talk, someone actually asked me why he should have sat there for 45 minutes if I was not talking about thriving open source code with a huge community behind it. My response was, more or less, "It's already super useful which I hope I showed, and more people could be working on it than just the original authors." That's how open source works, right? (By the way: That guy apologized to me later, but I didn't take it badly when he said it.)Ī couple more comments on my slides: My own data experiments in the deck weren't incredibly successful, largely due to issues with the database I used. (Also, it proved less useful on older Gutenberg books, because old-fashioned vernacular nouns don't appear in the db, like "momma." So out went Pride and Prejudice and out came my credit card for Kindle books.) Hence, all my fiction gender plots look kind of like these, with heavy weights towards male and neutral nouns: I wanted to explore Shane Bergsma's gender-of-nouns database collected off Google news, and what I found was that it thinks everything is really "male." Cuz most news articles are about men, probably. The pdf of my slides is here and the code zip file is here. Do check my appendices: I figured out a bunch of issues related to paths in Nodebox 1, running NB 1 from the command line, and the like.Ī couple nice post-conference mentions: Jake Vanderplas's take on Matplotlib history and visualization in Python, which has some interesting comments. I spent a while talking to Ben Lorica at PyData, and he nicely mentioned Nodebox in his well-RT'ed article on how Python Data Tools Just Keep Getting Better.Īlso, before the conference, I was interviewed for a podcast about data vis skills.

With Disney’s renewed interest in video games these last few years, it’s exciting to see Mickey and company in their first original adventure since the days of “Epic Mickey”. It is certainly a glaring departure from the “Bayonetta” formula, even for a spin-off, but we’ll see how it shakes up when it launches March 17, 2023.Īdvertisement “Disney Illusion Island” (2023) You’ll control both Cereza and Cheshire to traverse the land, solve puzzles, and defeat fearsome foes. “Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon” is a prequel that tells the story of how Cereza became the Umbra Witch we know today. However, this isn’t your normal “Bayonetta”. “Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon” (2023)Ĭonsidering “Bayonetta 3” launched not too long ago in October 2022, it’s hard to believe we’re getting another “Bayonetta” game six months later. Hopefully this will be a sign of more GBA classics getting remade or even added to the new GBA lineup for Switch Online. Developed by WayForward, “Re-Boot Camp” brings back the first two “Advance Wars” games with modern visuals while retaining the story and gameplay that made the originals among the best games of the Game Boy Advance. With no end of the war in sight, it seems Nintendo will be dropping “Re-Boot Camp” on April 21, 2023, roughly a year later. This remake of the first two “Advance Wars” games was delayed from its Aprelease due to real-world events, specifically the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. Kirby’s thirtieth anniversary goes out with a bang when this remake launches on Switch February 24, 2023. “Kirby’s Return to Dream Land Deluxe” rebuilds the Wii title with a brand new artstyle and comes with an extensive epilogue where you play as Magolor. If you were one of those people, you’ll have a second chance with this remake. Along with “Kirby’s Epic Yarn”, many folks missed out the fun co-op experience that was “Kirby’s Return to Dream Land”. “Kirby’s Return to Dream Land Deluxe” (2023)Ĭompared to some of the other Nintendo consoles, Kirby didn’t hold a super prominent presence on the Wii. Which Switch games are you excited for? Let us know down in the comments! We know that Nintendo still has a few months later in the year that are noticeably empty, but for the time being, these are the games that have us and many other Switch owners amped. Welcome to MojoPlays, and today, we’re taking a look at our 10 Most Anticipated Nintendo Switch Games of 2023! Let’s see what happens.10 Most Anticipated Nintendo Switch Games of 2023 Microsoft is attending a hearing with European Union regulators later today. But should they be true to their word, when the next Call of Duty game is announced it should come to a Nintendo system one way or another. There’s no word when these games will start, or what form they’ll take. JmO0hzw1BO- Brad Smith February 21, 2023 This is just part of our commitment to bring Xbox games and Activision titles like Call of Duty to more players on more platforms. We’ve now signed a binding 10-year contract to bring Xbox games to Nintendo’s gamers. This time the contract has a few more details, including bringing games “the same day as Xbox, with full feature and content parity”. (Notice they don’t mention the Switch specifically). On top of a “10-year commitment” in December last year announced by Xbox’s Phil Spencer, today Microsoft’s Vice Chair and President, Brad Smith has announced a binding 10-year contract to bring Call of Duty games to Nintendo players. Microsoft really want this deal to buy Activision Blizzard to go through. To some this isn’t so important, but to me it looks so much better. This is one of those electric bikes where you really cannot even tell the battery is there. There is one major design difference that draws me a little more towards the Protour: the complete integration of the downtube battery. Most of the components are actually pretty similar to the Dash. They battery seems to fit a bit better than on previous models, and I love the updated geometry making for easier riding.Īnother great option from IZIP. IZIP has done a great job on this update. The Suntour fork offers suspension with 63mm of travel for a less bumpy ride. This means you have a better center of gravity and can carry more cargo on your rear rack. The bike offers up to 35 miles per battery charge, so you can make it to wherever you’re going without charging up. The E3 Dash is a great option for a great price. Once you get used to it there really is no going back. Going 28mph might seem like a crazy amount of speed to some people. Obviously, if you are a daily electric bike commuter, speed is going to be important at some point. Here are our top 8 electric bikes for commuting for 2017.Ĭloseout pricing on the Medium frame Dash! Since there are loads of great options on the market, we thought it would be a good idea to narrow the field a bit and show you some of our favorites. With the improvements in mileage range, motor quality, recharge time, and speed, electric bikes are more ready than ever to get you from point A to point B. Electric bikes are becoming more popular as a commuting option every year. Marian Kelly is Billy Lee's lovely girlfriend. While she first made a cameo in River City Girls as the shopkeeper of the Downtown District shop, this time around she has a complete set of martial arts moves. This game marks her debut as a fully playable character in a beat 'em up (she previously appeared as a playable fighter in the one-on-one fighting game Double Dragon for the Neo Geo, based on her appearance in the live-action film). More recently, Marian appeared in River City Girls 2 ( WayForward, 2022), a spinoff series of Kunio-kun, a beat 'em up franchise from which the Double Dragon series derives from. In addition to her law enforcement roles, throughout many of the series' installments, Marian is stated to be a part-time instructor at the brothers' Dragon Dojo and in fact, in 2013's Wander of the Dragons, a remake of the NES/ PC Engine CD version of Double Dragon II, the player actually controls her in this role all throughout the tutorial, during a raid by the Black Warriors to the dojo. Moments later, after being rescued and after the twins defeat Skullmageddon in another dimension, Marian receives him from a long drop with a punch to the crotch. In Double Dragon Neon, after being kidnapped by that game's main antagonist, Skullmageddon, a possessed Marian aids him during his second boss encounter, hovering in the air and projecting energy blasts at the Dragon Twins. This change to the story was made by Acclaim during the western localization of the game. However, it must be noted that in both the original arcade and Japanese versions of this game, the final boss is the Egyptian queen Cleopatra herself, with no involvement of Marian whatsoever. In the NES home version of Double Dragon III, Marian was made the game's final boss, who had been possessed by the spirit of an ancient Egyptian queen called Princess Noiram (that is, "Marion" spelled backward). In fact, there exists a set of unused sprites in the Double Dragon Advance game files where she appears in various combat poses, although these were cut from the final release. The first of these attempts include making her part of various entities of law enforcement, whether she is a policewoman, a narcotics detective, or even a street vigilante. While originally Marian exclusively played the role of damsel-in-distress in the earlier titles, as the series progressed, many attempts have been made to give her a more proactive role. However, most home ports and sequels changed this event, where Marian was instead resurrected after the brothers broke the link with magical forces after defeating all the enemies (there are variations on how this event took place among the many ports and retellings of this story, but in the end Marian always survives). The original arcade version of the game that tells this story states that Marian remained dead. The brothers, filled with anger, set forth once again to the Black Warriors' hideout, and once again they defeated all enemies. However, Willy didn't die from his injuries, and after a long recovery, he reorganized the Black Warriors now recruiting much more powerful fighters within its ranks, some which even dwelt in the black arts.Īn undisclosed time later, the gang once again cornered Marian in the city streets, but this time Willy ruthlessly assassinated her with his machine gun at plain daylight. The canon continuity establishes that Billy was the victor of this encounter. However, when the time finally came to release Marian from her ties, both brothers engaged in a final match between themselves in order to decide who would be the one to take her home. The two brothers managed to infiltrate the gang's hideout and defeated all the enemies, including Mackey - leaving him for dead. As the series progressed, it was revealed that the reason for this abduction was to lure Billy to the Black Warriors' headquarters in order to make him surrender the secrets of the Sou-Setsu-Ken arts to them, a martial arts discipline rumored to give their practitioners unmeasurable powers. Billy teams up with his twin brother Jimmy, another martial arts expert, and both set on their way to rescue her from their evil clutches. In the first game of the series, the Black Warriors, commandeered by their leader Willy Mackey, kidnap Marian and take her to their hideout. Marian plays the role of girlfriend of one of the Double Dragon franchise's main protagonists, the martial arts master Billy Lee. 2.11 Double Dragon II: Wander of the Dragons.2.3 Double Dragon III: The Sacred Stones.1 History and evolution of the character.

In 2004 research into the molecular systematics of this group and related species by Oyama and Baum confirmed that the genus sensu lato as described by Thompson is monophyletic, provided that one species ( A. (For a comparison of Thompson with earlier systems, see Oyama and Baum, Table 1.) New species also continue to be discovered (see e.g. While many botanists accepted this broad circumscription ( sensu lato), whose main departure from other classifications was the inclusion of the New World Saerorhinum, others did not, restricting the genus to the Old World. Ī widely accepted scheme (Thompson 1988) placed 36 species in the genus in three sections. As of April 2017, The Plant List (Version 1.1) accepts 21 species. The USDA Plants Database recognises only two species: A. majus (the garden snapdragon), the only species naturalised in North America, and A. bellidifolium (the lilac snapdragon), now considered to be Anarrhinum bellidifolium (L.) Willd. The situation is further complicated by the variety of terms in use for infrageneric ranks, especially of the Old World species, that is Antirrhinum, sensu stricto (e.g. In particular the exact circumscription of the genus, especially the inclusion of the New World species (Saerorhinum), is contentious. The taxonomy of this genus is complex and not yet fully resolved at present. The genus is characterized by personate flowers with an inferior gibbous corolla.Īntirrhinum used to be treated within the family Scrophulariaceae, but studies of DNA sequences have led to its inclusion in a vastly enlarged family Plantaginaceae, within the tribe Antirrhineae. The Antirrhinum is morphologically diverse, particularly the New World group ( Saerorhinum). It is widely used as an ornamental plant in borders and as a cut flower. They are native to rocky areas of Europe, the United States, Canada, and North Africa. Antirrhinum is a genus of plants commonly known as dragon flowers, snapdragons and dog flower because of the flowers' fancied resemblance to the face of a dragon that opens and closes its mouth when laterally squeezed.

It doesn’t quite justify a lot of the repetitive questing it takes to track him down, but it at least serves as an enjoyable finale to an otherwise unremarkable expansion. This irradiated monstrosity is unlike any boss encounter in Maneater before it, and feels like a proper kaiju-like monster fight. Truth Quest’s short-lived campaign only lasts a handful of hours, even for a completionist run, but the finale, which has you facing off against the Atomic Leviathan itself, is an absolute highlight. It’s actually surprising how many ideas are re-used, which sometimes feels like it could have been a part of the original game with how little it distinguishes itself. But aside from those thin additions, all the new missions in Truth Quest are nearly identical to stuff we’ve seen before, like eating a certain number of humans or hunting an apex predator that presents a limited challenge. There’s also a new “collectible” in the form of tinfoil hat conspiracy theorists who hide in hard-to-reach places and spout nonsense before you eat them, which can make for some good, murderous fun. But at least now Chris Parnell will make fun of you as you struggle to jump through rings of fire. Racing around the sea is already something you spend quite a lot of time doing in Maneater, so getting timed while you do it isn’t exactly adding much new to the experience. That helps break up the routine a bit, but Time Trials aren’t particularly exciting overall. Outside of combat, there’s a new kind of side quest called Time Trials, where you literally and figuratively jump through hoops to complete a circuit in time. Normally all these new enemies would present a pretty lethal challenge… but since you can shoot lasers out of your doggone mouth now, they’re never actually an issue. Seeing the new weapons of war for the first time is a thrill, especially facing off against helicopters – leaping into the air to chew on one of those metal dragonflies is just delightful. Speaking of dimwitted AI, the humans and sea creatures that are usually pushovers up their game slightly in Truth Quest, now coming after you with helicopters, massive warships, and freaky new radiation powers that can seriously mess you up. None of these are real game changers aside from the organ mod that lets you heal over time, but at the very least they give you some carrots on a stick to grind toward as you work your way through the new region and hunt a mysterious new predator. Watching helicopters get knocked out of the sky and people explode as you melt their faces with it never really gets old, but its mere existence also undermines a lot of the other combat choices you could be making.Īlongside the new body mod there are five new organ evolution mods, an added organ slot, and an increased max level of 40 (raised from 30 in the base campaign). This new ability is cool, but it’s also so overpowered that there’s little reason to use anything else, as you’re able to blast apart even the toughest enemies with relative ease. There’s a fantastic new evolution set that turns you into an irradiated demon of the sea with the ability to shoot lasers out of your mouth like Godzilla. However, that’s not to say that there is nothing new in Truth Quest. The tough durable remarkable new floor that can take all the use and abuse an active family can dish out.
