We are lucky to have a budget airline that flies out of an airport near our home, so we were able to buy all of our airline tickets for $650.95. So ultimately our cost was $365/day for very comfortable accommodations at our Disney resort of choice. Class C Bunkhouse RV Rental from Lazydays: $275/day.Fort Wilderness Premium Campsite: $90/day.We didn’t save a ton of money by staying in an RV, but we didn’t spend more than we would have on two hotel rooms for our family of five. By combining a fly and drive vacation with an RV rental, would we be spending a ridiculous amount of money? The answer to that question is going to be different for every single family because the combined cost of airline tickets, Fort Wilderness campsites, and RV rentals can vary so much depending on when you travel, where you are traveling from, and how many people are in your party.įor us, the cost ended up being comparable. To hear us chat more about our stay at Fort Wilderness in our Lazydays RV rental, you can listen to RVFTA podcast episode #128: Greetings from Walt Disney World, the Most Magical Place on Earth! Cost: What are the Economics of an RV Rental? We know that many of our listeners and readers are very curious about RV rental vacations, so we wanted to share the details of our experience. This checked off all the boxes: we would get down to Florida quickly, enjoy the comforts of an RV, and get to stay at one of the best campgrounds in the country.īut we still had some major concerns about the whole RV rental process. So we figured out a third option: fly down to Florida, rent an RV from Lazydays in Tampa, and stay in the rental at Fort Wilderness. We didn’t have the time to make the drive, and hotels are stressful, uncomfortable, and expensive for our family of five. Unfortunately, neither of these options worked for us. After booking a trip to Disney World in Orlando, Florida for this past January, we faced a dilemma: should we take at least two days on both ends of the family vacation to tow our RV south from New Jersey, or just stay in a hotel like so many other travelers?

These were also the hues and moods that he tried to pass on to younger artists and through which he sought to perpetuate a tradition that is “alive with action and Philippinism”, a tradition long forgotten by the art circle. These were the colors that earned him recognition from contests here and abroad. His colors reflected a relaxed and subdued attitude - earthly brown, green moss and sepia or kulay tansong kinakalawang”. Moreover, his canvasses depicted themes closest to his heart- “rural landscapes, lonely old people, young love and life in the country. A silent chronicler, Saulog painted “what he saw and what he believed it is.” His works, the fruits of more than 50 years of struggle, reveal a “sincere grasp of happy, unassuming farm life” and sensitivity to the various aspects of human nature in general. Contented with nature, the once acclaimed Filipino painter of the Madonnas remained conservative since it was the best means through which he could communicate. “With the influence of modern and commercial art which is easy to learn and does not even require schooling," rare are artists who can do strokes like Saulog. A survey of his works, however, "provides one a sense of gentleness, of subtlety, of simplicity and of intense national pride" - aspects that are no longer felt. It was also a time when modernists felt that a conventional painter like Saulog had no place in Philippine Art. He decided to go back to his hometown Imus at an era when modern art was gaining prominence. "Some of them had the brazen impunity of attacking Amorsolo, de la Rosa, Tolentino and other luminaries of the old school to hasten the public's acceptance of the new ‘isms’ and whose proponents and guards find it easier to wallow in the course of less resistance.” Saulog faded into oblivion after he bid the asphalt jungle farewell. In the case of Saulog, a staunch conservative, he was perceived as a victim of the so-called avant-garde greats believed to have controlled the publicity and build-up of the modernists. Those who refused to accept the new “isms” became the orthodox conservatives. With their love for distortion and abstraction, the modernists gradually pushed aside the conservatives. For a time, the modernists lord it over the conservative artists like Saulog. What I’m talking about here is using Godot to do the 3d stuff (rendering, handling models, intercations, …) and pushing it out in Krita as let’s say maybe a special layer or something to display it. I’m not sure what you mean by “importing assets form krita”? Link for godot proposal: Build Godot Engine as a shared library ĮDIT: This all assumes from the note about possible blender introduction that it’s more feasible to add something extra to Krita rather than create it with something like QT. The previous one started with a C# proposal. Technically there was a longer discussion about this in a different proposal and it has been going on for a while this is the first init of any action. I don’t know how much of this is even possible or what are the current plans, as far as I understand the 3D stuff is still quite far away in Krita (unless something changed from the last info I got?). I’m just bringing this up as a topic for discussion if it ever comes to 3D implementations. I know that adding languages, libraries or other stuff has not been popular in Krita’s development over the years for various reasons and I’m not belittleing these in any way. (Implementing special layers or so in krita I assume is the same work as for any other 3D option so I’m mostly talking about differences) Sure some part of Krita’s api would still be needed to make it possible to work with it in plugins if you want to add that but even if not as long as the base commands go through lot of the scene stuff could be handled by a Godot script file. Instead of creating a robust 3D api in Krita large part of it could go through godot scenes/scripts (these are native to godot and just work) which might make it possible for devs who don’t know krita’s core and/or c++ to help with large part of 3D stuff without a need to tinker with Krita too much and possibly breaking stuff. In general Godot is pretty lightweight, it already builds to win, linux, mac, android, …, code base is not large and most importantly it’s very nicely structured and written, considering the size of blender’s code base and going through it to figure out what’s needed it might be worth the tradeoff, Godot is built with the possibilty to strip features down during the built process to shed what’s not needed. Now I’m wondering, since Godot has 3D capabilities, shares the open source license and there’s a new proposal to build godot as a shared library, would that make it possible (maybe even easier) to implement it for the 3D stuff in Krita? I’m just curious in the plan (link below) there’s mentioned 3D, I also remember some talks about it here, I think it was (but if not I’m sorry for pinging you )) who mentioned wanting to look at it closer, also some notes about instead of implementing all 3D it might be possible to use Blender for this as long as you have it on your computer. If you’re trying to live stream on Facebook, it can be almost alienating to engage with prospective clients and fellow professionals on their personal accounts. A huge amount of LinkedIn content posted today is video, and while Facebook Live has always been an option, it’s not always the most relevant platform for your business content – especially if you are a B2B brand. Live videos are hugely popular across all social media channels and have been for years. Pete Davies, Product Management Director at LinkedIn, says that livestreaming has been the most requested feature, adding that, “video is the fastest growing format on our platform right now, and the one most likely to get people talking.” Why Use LinkedIn Live: UPDATE: Most of our clients and people within our network now have the LinkedIn Live feature, please remember you need to apply for it! It’s hardly surprising, and frankly, it’s hard to imagine why LinkedIn hadn’t introduced this feature earlier. for selected users that sign up (invite to be sent out to select users in a couple weeks), but you can expect it to become a mainstay of LinkedIn relatively soon. Initially LinkedIn Live will only be launching in the U.S. Read on to find out about when it’s coming and why we’re excited about it (and why you should be too!).

US presidential candidates blamed the deaths on the administration.ĭemocratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris called the situation “inhumane.” “The Pope is profoundly saddened by their death, and is praying for them and for all migrants who have lost their lives while seeking to flee war and misery,” Vatican spokesman Alessandro Gisotti said. The Vatican issued a statement saying Pope Francis “is profoundly saddened” by the deaths. “This is compounded by the absence of safe pathways for people to seek protection, leaving people with no other choice than to risk their lives.” “The deaths of Oscar and Valeria represent a failure to address the violence and desperation pushing people to take journeys of danger for the prospect of a life in safety and dignity,” the high commissioner, Filippo Grandi, said. Hill said the government is working with Mexican authorities to repatriate the remains.Įl Salvador’s newly elected President Nayib Bukele said the government would help the family financially.Īfter news of the image spread, the office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees called for “all countries in the region to take immediate and coordinated steps to prevent further tragedies like this from occurring. “I beg you, to all the families, parents, don’t risk it. “Our country is in mourning, again,” she said. US asylum seekers face long waits or risky crossings, thanks to supposed capacity crunch Kevin and his father traveled by train from Guatemala, and are on a waitlist to apply for asylum at the Nogales, Arizona, port of entry. Kevin Ajtun, 16, waits for a ride to a migrant shelter in Nogales, Mexico, below the US border. In Matamoros alone, more than 2,000 migrants had been waiting at the end of May “in conditions of hunger and overcrowding” to seek asylum at ports where, according to La Jornada, US agents granted an average of three appointments per week. Turnbacks and long waits also often push asylum seekers into crossing the border illegally, according to a September report by the Homeland Security’s Office of Inspector General. But US policies that make it harder for those seeking asylum to turn themselves in at ports of entry are pushing more migrants to take deadly risks and cross in more dangerous areas, advocates have said, warning the number of deaths at the border will increase. Ports of entry along the border have long been overwhelmed by the surging asylum claims, Customs and Border Protection officials have said. De Luc told CNN en Español the family arrived at the bridge Sunday planning to seek asylum, but they were told it was closed and they would have to return the following day.

Oscar Alberto Martínez and his daughter Angie Valeria. Mazda launched the car in four-wheel-steering form before realising that the asking price forced many would-be owners to look at four-cylinder Toyota Celicas and Honda Preludes. Age and kilometres will have taken their toll on some of the sensors and actuators, although the car does, at least, have a fail-safe mode where any glitch sees the rear wheels fixed straight ahead. Any advantage was minute.Įven then, the electro-hydraulic set-up used computers and motors to decide where to point the rear wheels and when to do it. The theory was that four-wheel-steering gave the car extra stability for lane-changing at speed, and extra manoeuvrability when parking. The car's biggest point of difference from its competitors was its four-wheel-steering, with the rear wheels steering a few degrees in sympathy with the front wheels at speed, and against them at parking speeds. The four-speed automatic is harder to keep spinning and too eager to fall off its power curve. With 121 kW of power, the MX-6 could be wound up to perform, but it was a full-time job keeping the 2.5-litre engine on the boil, and a lack of low- and mid-range urge is apparent when things start to get serious.įor that reason, the five-speed manual is a much nicer car. Neither engine was perfect for this sort of car, with the turbo untamed in its power delivery and the V6 generally a bit limp. The original ferocious four-cylinder turbo motor was replaced by a V6 engine that on paper would seem to have been a step forward but in retrospect seemed slightly light on. It suffers from a serious lack of knee room if a front seat is occupied by a tall person. The front seats were good but the back seat was little more than a decoration. Inside, the MX-6 was straight early-'90s Japan, with lots of grey plastic and a dashboard that was clear and concise and with adequate ergonomics. Then again, there are a few folks who still think the car is one of the better-looking Japanese efforts of its time. The shape certainly flows, but it doesn't possess a lot of aggression - other Japanese coupes of the time stated their case with more visual authority. With its sculpted silhouette and long front and rear overhangs, it somehow looked a bit too organic to be a true fire-breather. The styling was perhaps the biggest talking point. It was still front-wheel-drive and very much a two-seater, with an occasional rear seat thrown in, but it was more sophisticated and better behaved. In their place, coupe buyers were offered a long, low, two-door body with a silky V6 engine. Gone were the turbocharged engine, boxy, bulging wheel arches and fearsome reputation of the first MX-6. Not that the 1991 MX-6 was a bad car, or even a poor performer, but it was bland in many respects and merely adequate in others. It was regarded as a performance car, in a straight line, anyway, and driving the replacement revealed that it needed all the marketing help it could get. The outgoing car was also, without wishing to put too fine a point on it, fairly ordinary, with a reputation for fierce power delivery, wilful handling and not much else. The new car was, coupe bodywork aside, nothing like the model it was replacing. When Mazda launched its all-new MX-6 coupe in 1991, it was something of a surprise that it stuck with the MX-6 badge.
