![]() ![]() The parking is both good and easy and reasonably priced at 20/day (given there are no alternatives!).ĭownsides: The boats are getting on in years. The mainland terminal at San Pedro was very well organized. My ticket was rebooked (I missed the boat due to the paper ticket issue) without comment or charge. With dozens or a hundred other passengers, you can be sure there will be a line so arrive early. This early arrival is necessary so you can get your paper ticket in the main ticketing hall. The receipts and online checkout do not clearly encourage you to arrive 45 minutes early. Don't be a fool like me and assume you can show your electronic receipt and waltz aboard. This wasn’t a total disaster as the trip itself was vĮverything is done by paper in 20th century style. The trip itself was excellent, however I removed a point from the rating due to the excessive and misleading (in my opinion) parking charges. The Catalina Express certainly isn’t cheap and I appreciate the overheads to operate, but just be aware of parking charges that can potentially add a chunk to the trip. My stay was just under 8 hours and expected a charge of $16, however I was charged $22.Īfter questioning the lady on the machine, she said many people had questioned their parking charge on departing which clearly indicates a lack of transparency or a deliberate ploy to extract more cash from CE customers. On the day I visited, I checked the rate online and it stated the first hour was free and $2 per hour thereafter with a maximum of $20 per 24 hours. Last time, I used an outside parking facility which was reasonably priced, however, the parking they now use is a multi-story structure opposite the booking facility. It’s been a few years since using Catalina Express and the first noticeable was the different location from which they operate.

When contacted by telephone at Plaster's Lebanon office Thursday, a spokeswoman said Plaster was traveling and unavailable for comment. "Now the fish really smells, doesn't it?" Cutbirth said. Passage would require a simple majority, Cutbirth said, and only six or seven voters live on Plaster's property. Or the commission can accept the petition and put it to a vote of the residents within Plaster's property - not the residents surrounding his property. Cully has stated to us is he thought the only authority we had was to present it to the voters to decide."Ĭutbirth said he feels the commission can vote to deny the petition, after which Cully could appeal the decision to the circuit court. They (petition representatives) feel we don't," Cutbirth said. What the commission can do with the petition is up for debate, said Presiding Commissioner George Cutbirth. The commission will discuss the document with the petitioners' attorney, Michael Cully, at an open hearing on Tuesday in the courthouse. "Obviously it's something he doesn't think planning and zoning would agree with." "No one seems to know what he wants," said Kathy Clark, a spokeswoman for Friends of Table Rock Lake. The new entity would be called "Village of Table Rock," but the petition does not describe what, if any, construction or use is planned for the mostly undeveloped property. The property lies roughly between Kimberling City and Indian Point. Plaster, chairman of the board and president of Evergreen National Corp., Branson, recently petitioned the Stone County Commission to incorporate as a village about 500 acres he owns on the so-called DD Peninsula on Table Rock. The lakeside community includes about 1,600 homes - many of them high-end housing - 15 resorts and several businesses along narrow, winding two-lane lake roads. "He's had several projects presented to planning and zoning and been turned down." "Our concern is if he does have a village, he'll be able to bypass planning and zoning and build anything he wants," said Wayne Miles, a Springfield doctor who has had a home off DD Highway for 20 years. The residents group plans to discuss Plaster's petition during its annual meeting at 7 p.m. The plan appears to have been made possible by a late change to a bill in the last legislative session. Plaster's plan to incorporate 400 to 500 acres would invite unchecked development around the lake community, and threaten quality of life and water. Members of the Friends of Table Rock Lake say they worry Robert W. Residents and resort owners around DD Highway at Table Rock Lake are alarmed over a Lebanon businessman's petition to make his property an incorporated village, removing it from Stone County jurisdiction as well as planning and zoning. Law appears to have been changed to allow village incorporation. ![]()

![]() Interfering with this setting also affects the History Generation time as well, since it amps up the number of inhabitants in the world. Medium is fine for the most part, but you can go with high as well if you want to minimize the risk of civilizations going extinct. Setting to this low will result in civilizations only existing within their home settlements which drastically increases the chance of them going extinct at some point The sites exist in the form of Towns, Mountain Halls, Forest retreats, Dark Pits, and more. This option determines how big the civilizations will be by giving them more sites, habitats, and establishments to expand. ![]() It should be noted that the number of civilizations also affects the History Generation time since a high number of civilizations will increase the number of events that would have occurred in the world by the time you begin the game Maximum Number Of Sites – Medium/High So if you want to have a world where you can control the peace and warfare of different civilizations at a much larger scale, set to high, otherwise, the medium is fine too. The races include humans, goblins, dwarfs, elves, and kobolds. Decreasing the options range will decrease the number of distinct civilizations that will exist in your world which in turn decreases the world trend due to lesser interaction between different races.Īnd naturally setting the Number of Civilizations to high or very high will guarantee the maximum number of races which in turn will increase the world trend and the number of events that occur in the game due to the high amount of interaction between species of different races. This option determines the number of civilizations that will exist in your world. The higher you go, the more historical events would have occurred and the smaller you set it the fewer events would have occurred in the world. The longer your history length is the more time it will take the world to generate while affecting the system’s performance as well. Keeping it on the default setting, which is 100 years is the sweet spot since it gives civilizations enough time to develop bonds or feuds. Choosing 5 years means that only 5 years have passed since the dawn of time, which obviously means civilization wouldn’t have developed much. History Length basically decides how much time has passed in the game when you are put in control of the world. We recommend leaving the world size to its default setting which is Medium. ![]() It is linked with the base values of all the other world generation settings in order to keep the world balanced with its inhabitants, biomes, and resources. World map size is basically what it says, which is determining the size of the world. The best world generations settings are as follows: World Map Size – Medium Best World Generation Settings All World Generation optionsĭwarf Fortress has 7 different world generation settings with each of them having 5 different options to choose from, ranging from v ery small/low to very high/large. ![]() The first segment, A of Rhythm Changes, is a turnaround with a secondary dominant. The Rhythm Changes are composed of two chord qualities AABA form consisting of an A portion and a B section. They provide plenty of room for wiggle room in terms of swapping out components and adjusting proportions. Rhythm Changes’ inherent ease of usage makes them suitable for various musical contexts. To get familiar with this striking novelty, we recommend you hear the classic Cheek to Cheek by Fred Astaire.ĭo you know that this particular jazz progression is named after a song? I’ve Got Rhythm, a song by Gershwin in 1930, gave birth to this progression. However, the dominating 7 will provide far more taste and color to the dish than the m7. It sounds natural though not entirely expected. You’ll likely understand why if you give the chord qualities a try. However, transforming it into a dominant 7 is standard practice in jazz music. ![]() I – vi – ii – V jazz Theoryĭiatonic Theory states that the vi chord must be minor. It might have a happy, upbeat vibe, but it can also have a sadder tone, depending on the speed and the other chords played around it. To try out this melancholic progression, hear our songs like Satin Doll and Cherokee by Tal Farlow and Joy Spring by Joe Pass.ĭo you know how this progression sounds? Sounds light and airy, like a walk down the beach on a nice, sunny day. As a result of its widespread usage for sentimentality in musical theater, b6 has been dubbed the “nostalgia note” by composer Adam Neely. The iv chord’s third note, the flat sixth, is the Key’s tonic. Since it is not in the tonic key but uses the tonic note as its root, this 4-minor chord is referred to as a “borrowed chord.” It’s usual practice to alter a major-key IV chord to a minor-key iv while working in that Key (minor). The IV (major) to iv (minor) harmonic progression is an essential tool for any beginner jazz pianist since innumerable jazz writers and improvisers have used it, as also as many pop performers like the Beatles. With only this one-chord sequence, you’ll be able to enter the realm of jazz music, where virtuoso technique and advanced music theory meet. Certainly, you must try it!īlues pianists will recognize the sound of an I chord, changing to an IV chord as a standard element of the jazz piano world. Examples of Minor ii-V-I Jazz Standard FormĪutumn Leaves by Eric Clapton and Sweet Georgia Brown by Ben Bernie are some of the very popular jazz pieces that the world knows. ![]() The half-diminished seventh chord, derived from a minor seventh chord based on the supertonic, is a powerful, dominant chord. In its most basic form, the dominant is a major triad, while in more advanced forms, it is often a dominant seventh chord. It makes one think of an upscale bar where one may relax with friends and enjoy a well-made beverage. ![]() In contrast to the major ii-V-I, it has a somber atmosphere. If you are a Latin jazz guitarist lover, you will often hear this minor harmony. To give your fingers the taste of this progression, I recommend trying out Moose the Mooche by Pat Metheny, Isn’t It Romantic by Tal Farlow. Examples of Major ii – V – I Jazz Standard Form Thus, establishing and playing the tonality vi-ii-V-I progression of root movement by descending fifths includes an ii-V-I progression. Major ii – V – I jazz theoryĮach chord in the progression has a root on the second degree (supertonic), the fifth degree (dominant 7th chord), and the tonic. Playing the II-V-I progression is an excellent way for jazz artists of all ability levels to hone their musical and harmonic abilities in creative ways. No doubt, as it is the most common progressions to start with. You would think you’ve entered “jazz chord odyssey” territory after knowing this particular piano chord. ![]() ![]() The water was moving in rapid, rotating motions and I could see the resemblance of a few swirls that could be described loosely as a whirlpool. In moments such as these I quickly give myself a hard word, and reminded myself how lucky I am to see and experience these out of reach places. I was expecting to see a ferocious whirlpool but seeing it for the first time didn’t reach the colossal expectations I had built for myself. I walked over to where I could get a panoramic view of the area but it wasn’t quite what I had hoped for. I could not recall seeing a whirlpool before, other than on a tiny scale in my bathroom sink, so I was all fired up to go. (I may or may not have taken those figures from Wikipedia…!). Up to 400 million m³ (tonnes) of seawater forces its way through a three kilometre long and only 150 meter wide strait every six hours, with water speeds reaching 37 kilometres per hour. ![]() Saltstraumen is located outside of the city, about 20 minutes drive away in a narrow channel - connecting the outer Saltfjord with the large Skjerstadfjord. In the tale, a man recounts how he survived a shipwreck and a whirlpool in Norway. Literary fans will enjoy knowing it was first introduced into English by Edgar Allan Poe in his short story A Descent into the Maelstrom in 1841. You can go scuba diving, kayaking, paragliding, hiking, but I had only one thing on my mind… I wanted to take a RIB boat over Saltstraumen maelstrom, the world’s strongest tidal current.Ī whirlpool goes by the name of maelstrom in Norwegian. Being surrounded by all this meant one thing – ADVENTURE! So when I found myself in Bodø for a couple of days on a research trip with Scandinavian tour operator, Scandinavia Only, I was on a mission to find out more.Īfter arriving in town, the proximity it has to the fjords was the first thing I noticed, together with mountains and the alpine landscape. Basically it’s a means for getting from A to B. There are quite a few things to do in Bodø that range from the arty to the adventurous, but its limelight is stolen by its more attractive neighbours, in particular, the beautiful Lofoten Islands.īodø is the northern terminus for the train network in Norway, so people stopping here are usually heading further north from the city’s small airport. It’s not well visited by tourists and I wondered if that was correlative with the amount of things to do there… Before going to Bodø in Northern Norway I wasn’t sure what to expect.
