Reader Discussion: What's Your Most Prized Gaming Possession?
Gaming is more than just playing games. Many people go out of their way to purchase collector's editions, bring home special giveaways from conventions, or even commission something special related to their favorite titles.
Perhaps you went out of your way to get an extremely limited version of a game. Maybe you spent an exorbitant amount on a Nintendo World Championships cartridge. It could be that you imported something not available where you live or have something treasured from your childhood.
Let us know what piece of gaming gear is your most treasured. It could be a collectible, piece of art, or a game itself. Whatever it is, we want to hear about it.

Guests' Corner
The Lion and Albert
Marriott Edgar
There's a famous seaside place called Blackpool,
That's noted for fresh air and fun,
And Mr and Mrs Ramsbottom
Went there with young Albert, their son.
A grand little lad was young Albert
All dressed in his best; quite a swell
With a stick with an 'orse's 'ead 'andle
The finest that Woolworth's could sell.
They didn't think much to the Ocean
The waves, they were fiddlin' and small
There was no wrecks and nobody drownded
Fact, nothing to laugh at, at all.
So, seeking for further amusement
They paid and went into the zoo
Where they'd lions and tigers and camels
And old ale and sandwiches too.
There were one great big lion called Wallace
His nose were all covered with scars
He lay in a somnolent posture
With the side of his face on the bars.
Now Albert had heard about lions
How they was ferocious and wild
To see Wallace lying so peaceful
Well, it didn't seem right to the child.
So straight 'way the brave little feller
Not showing a morsel of fear
Took his stick with its 'orse's 'ead 'andle
And shoved it in Wallace's ear.
You could see the lion didn't like it
For giving a kind of a roll
He pulled Albert inside the cage with 'im
And swallowed the little lad 'ole
Then Pa, who had seen the occurrence
And didn't know what to do next
Said "Mother! Yon lions 'et Albert"
And Mother said "Well, I am vexed!"
Then Mr and Mrs Ramsbottom
Quite rightly, when all's said and done
Complained to the Animal Keeper
That the lion had eaten their son.
The keeper was quite nice about it
He said "What a nasty mishap
Are you sure it's your boy he's eaten?"
Pa said "Am I sure? There's his cap!"
The manager had to be sent for
He came and he said "What's to do?"
Pa said "Yon lion's 'et Albert
And 'im in his Sunday clothes, too."
Then Mother said, "Right's right, young feller
I think it's a shame and a sin
For a lion to go and eat Albert
And after we've paid to come in."
The manager wanted no trouble
He took out his purse right away
Saying "How much to settle the matter?"
And Pa said "What do you usually pay?"
But Mother had turned a bit awkward
When she thought where her Albert had gone
She said "No! someone's got to be summonsed"
So that was decided upon.
Then off they went to the Police Station
In front of the Magistrate chap
They told 'im what happened to Albert
And proved it by showing his cap.
The Magistrate gave his opinion
That no one was really to blame
And he said that he hoped the Ramsbottoms
Would have further sons to their name.
At that Mother got proper blazing
"And thank you, sir, kindly," said she
"What waste all our lives raising children
To feed ruddy lions? Not me!"

Buoyancy Flow with Darcy's Law — The Elder Problem
Application ID: 657
Density variations can initiate flow even in a still fluid. In earth systems, density variations can arise from naturally occurring salts, subsurface temperature changes, or migrating pollution. This buoyant or density-driven flow factors into fluid movement in salt-lake systems, saline-disposal basins, dense contaminant and leachate plumes, and geothermal reservoirs, to name just a few.
This example benchmarks a time-dependent buoyant flow in porous media. Known as the Elder problem, it follows a laboratory experiment to study thermal convection. The Elder problem examines the concentrations through the coupling of two physics interfaces: Darcy's Law and Solute Transport.
This model example illustrates applications of this type that would nominally be built using the following products:
however, additional products may be required to completely define and model it. Furthermore, this example may also be defined and modeled using components from the following product combinations:
The combination of COMSOL® products required to model your application depends on several factors and may include boundary conditions, material properties, physics interfaces, and part libraries. Particular functionality may be common to several products. To determine the right combination of products for your modeling needs, review the Specification Chart and make use of a free evaluation license. The COMSOL Sales and Support teams are available for answering any questions you may have regarding this.

Text description provided by the architects. The Performing Arts Centre "KILDEN" will house three organizations: the 'Agder Theater', the 'Kristiansand Philharmonic' and the 'Opera South'. The four performance halls are lined up in the mid-zone of the building leaving the production -spaces to the east and audience -spaces to the west side. Further on the west along the waterside, a huge cantilevered roof will cover both the public city-space by the sea and the foyer space which provides access to the shows. Waterfront-facade clad with local oak follows the forms defined by the halls and creates a surface separating real world from the illusional.
Urban Identity
The urban character of the new theatre- and concert hall building should not only express the functionality of the project. The building will have a major impact on the cultural identity of the city of Kristiansand and the whole region. The architectural expression has to be instantly recognisable and unique. There is a strong demand for a cultural landmark building. Often in theatres the fly tower reflects the buildings function, acting simultaneously as a landmark.
On this shore the role of the tower has already been taken by the silo. The signature image of the performing arts centre should be built with other means. The main concept of the Teater- og Konserthus design is the series of performance spaces, which has been shaped out to act as a sign in the cityscape. This undulating, unified surface forms a dramatic lobby and foyer between the performance halls and the shoreline. The relationship of the building with the canal and the sea has strong tension and drama.
Architectural Expression
The undulating main façade acts as a surface separating reality from fantasy. This line is crossed as you step into the hall from the foyer. The other façades consist of a vertical folded surface giving the building a subdued elegant form, enhancing the foyer wall as the signifying form of the building. The audience is instinctively drawn towards the public foyer.
The building has a desire to please the public, to be popular and understandable to everybody. The foyer wall is built of local wood, most likely oak. This further emphasises the warm, inviting character of the foyer space. The vertically folded dark facades are made of sharply detailed, stained metal sheets, most likely of brass or copper.
The building is a sharp object with an almost exaggerated clarity of expression. It stands proudly in the rough industrial surroundings. The building creates elegant public and performing spaces and rough, functional production facilities. All this is combined into a shape of an elegant machine –a building as an instrument.
Functional Concept
The striking exterior appearance of the project is the first thing the visitor experiences. It is, however, a result of a careful analytical design process. The main functional concept is to organise all the production facilities of the building along a straight indoor street wide enough for trucks and deliver sets, instruments and materials. The performance halls are arranged to the other side of the street.
The order of the auditoriums is determined by the relations to the production facilities, the relations to the exterior logistics, and the relations between the auditoriums themselves. The main stage theatre hall is located so that the stage opens directly to the set-building workshops. This unit is on the southern end of the building to allow for easier loading and unloading of material.
The flerbruksal and the biscene are located on both sides of the main stage for easy co-operation and share of facilities. The concert hall is located at the northern end of the production street. The underbelly of the auditorium creates a memorable beginning for the curving foyer wall. The support facility zone diminishes next to the concert hall, allowing for the chamfered corner of the volume at the tightest corner of the building site.
Four Zones
The Theater- og konserthus consists of four parallel zones. The public foyer zone is the expressive, free flowing area of improvisation. The public meets each other. Temporary exhibitions and performances are presented. Parties and congresses are held. The foyer zone is easy to navigate- the public can easily find their way to the different auditoriums and support functions.
The auditoriums form the second zone between the foyer and the production street. They are conceived as individual, high-performance instruments for music and theatre production and performance. The architectural expression of the halls is formal and precise. They have a touch and feel of units with multiple uses and a very high level of technical functionality.
The production street is the third functional zone. The street is six meters wide and has full-height doors in both ends. The street ensures great flexibility between the auditoriums and the production facilities. The street also acts as an extra production and assembly space, as well as short-term storage.
The fourth functional zone consists of the production workshops, storage units and workplaces for the staff. This zone opens both to the production streets and the corridors directly above it, and to the outside through windows of the long eastern elevation.
Public buildings are an integral part of a socially sustainable environment. The materials are of local sources. Kristiansand was built on the export of oak to Europe in the 16th century: The main undulating façade of Kilden is built of local oak, CNC milled and fully treated in Kristiansand. The other three facades are to be made of aluminium from the factory across the fjord.
The concrete factory supplying the building site is located 200 meters down the pier. Where relevant, local companies are supplying the project with their expertise, workforce and materials. The building is heated and cooled by district systems covering the whole of central Kristiansand. Kilden will become a truly local social hub.

text: 1 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a thing was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the thing was true, even a great warfare: and he understood the thing, and had understanding of the vision. 2 In those days I, Daniel, was mourning three whole weeks. 3 I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine into my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled. 4 And in the four and twentieth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel, 5 I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, a man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with pure gold of Uphaz: 6 his body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as flaming torches, and his arms and his feet like unto burnished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude. 7 And I, Daniel, alone saw the vision; for the men that were with me saw not the vision; but a great quaking fell upon them, and they fled to hide themselves. 8 So I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me; for my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength. 9 Yet heard I the voice of his words; and when I heard the voice of his words, then was I fallen into a deep sleep on my face, with my face toward the ground. 10 And, behold, a hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands. 11 And he said unto me, O Daniel, thou man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright; for unto thee am I now sent. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling. 12 Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel; for from the first day that thou didst set thy heart to understand, and to humble thyself before thy God, thy words were heard: and I am come for thy words'sake. 13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days; but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me: and I remained there with the kings of Persia. 14 Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days; for the vision is yet for many days: 15 and when he had spoken unto me according to these words, I set my face toward the ground, and was dumb. 16 And, behold, one in the likeness of the sons of men touched my lips: then I opened my mouth, and spake and said unto him that stood before me, O my lord, by reason of the vision my sorrows are turned upon me, and I retain no strength. 17 For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, straightway there remained no strength in me, neither was there breath left in me. 18 Then there touched me again one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me. 19 And he said, O man greatly beloved, fear not: peace be unto thee, be strong, yea, be strong. And when he spake unto me, I was strengthened, and said, Let my lord speak; for thou hast strengthened me. 20 Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I am come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I go forth, lo, the prince of Greece shall come. 21 But I will tell thee that which is inscribed in the writing of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me against these, but Michael your prince. |

Summer Flooring Trends for 2020
After springtime produces lush growth for our plants and our yards, we have the entire summer to enjoy the beautiful new life everywhere we turn! With the extra time indoors these past few months, you may have noticed a few areas in your home that could use some stylish rejuvenation. We have the looks at Markville Carpet & Flooring that will help you capture the spirit of the season. If you are ready to give an old room a design refresh, you might find the perfect inspiration from these summer flooring trends for 2020.
Light & Airy Hardwood
Homeowners love hardwood floors for their durability, ability to retain value and enhance home resale value, and, of course, exceptional natural beauty. Let the natural light in this summer and let it play perfectly off of airy hardwood species like white oak, red oak, bamboo, maple, and ash with muted finishes. Wide plank formats will make rooms feel bigger and more spacious, with a breezy, comfortable quality that will brighten the room.
Wood-Look Alternatives
If your active bunch is sure to track in mud and water from outside and spill messy cookout food at inopportune times, you can always opt for an easy-to-maintain, water-resistant wood-look floor that still delivers fashionable appeal. Wood-look tile, luxury vinyl, and laminate options in white, grey, greige, and blonde provide stunning visuals and in-demand shades, while also allowing you to wet-mop in the event of untimely accidents. These options will also displace rooms for far less time when being installed, which becomes a valuable bonus when kids are home from school and still limited when it comes to leaving the home.
Coastal Chic
If your family travel plans were put on hiatus this summer, consider bringing the beach to your home with a coastal chic aesthetic that will help you unwind year-round. Sandy-colored, white-washed, or distressed wood varieties will take you right back to your favorite pier. Gentle wire-brushing will create wind-swept natural texture. A glass tile backsplash of cool blues and darker browns in your bathroom will sparkle like your favorite oceans and whisk you away to your favorite beach.
Seasonal Area Rugs
One of the quickest ways to add inspired summer flooring is with the perfect seasonal area rugs! Maybe you love a blue textured carpet that reminds you of soothing waves. Perhaps you'll find rugs with bold bright pops of fuchsia and red to match the plants outside. Combinations of red, white, and blue are always appropriate during summer, especially for your outdoor mats and entranceways. Whichever rugs catch your eye, make sure to indulge in a fun trend since you can easily rotate these rugs to storage when the fall season arrives.
When we think of summertime, we think of fun activities and making cherished memories with our favorite people. Capture summer flooring trends with a joyful spirit and your home will reflect that same warm energy. Visit the Markville Carpet & Flooring showroom in Toronto, Ontario and we will help you land the perfect addition for your summer home décor!
