If you are checking your own cartridges, here is what we suggest. Later models just look for "SEGA" in the header, and the rest of the header - including the checksum - can be complete garbage (Codemasters games are mostly like this). The Model 1 Genesis didn't even care if the header was there, so some carts don't have anything where the header should be (Early EA titles like Budokan and Populous, for example). This is commonly seen in EA titles.ģ) The cart doesn't checksum itself, and the company forgot to put the standard checksum in the header. This error usually shows up as skipping the first few bytes of the code in the cart, or stopping a page short at the end of the cart, or just an off-by-one error at the beginning or end of the cart.Ģ) The company decided to use a different checksum routine. This gives you a real warm feeling about their ability as game programmers. We have found some standard checksum problems:ġ) The company that wrote the game couldn't code a checksum routine properly. Most games don't bother, so it really doesn't matter what the checksum in the header says. Also, since the Genesis doesn't checksum the cart, it is up to the code in the cart to checksum itself. Therefore, we find quite a few games with "bad" checksums that are actually correct (we prefer to call them "misunderstood checksums" rather than doing the non-politically correct thing by labeling them "bad"). Although Sega recommended the use of a simple "add up all the bytes in the cart" checksum routine, and most games did this and put the correct value in their header, Sega did not require this. The Genesis does not have a checksum routine built into its BIOS. Not necessarily, although why is a long explanation. Does a bad checksum mean there is something wrong with my cartridge? 4-point kneeling can increase movement available to mum and has the lowest risk of OASIS.In women with more than 1 child, squatting can increase the risk of obstetric anal sphincter injuries (OASIS) compared with women in a recumbent position in bed or water births. Upright or side lie positions are best for reducing the risk of perineal trauma.Upright position during the second phase of labour research suggests that it increases the size of the pelvic diameter thereby enabling faster progress. Squatting reduced the second stage of labour by 9minutes in both primiparous and multiparous women compared to delivering on your back.Upright positions such as sitting, squatting or kneeling can reduce the duration of second stage of labour by 6.6minutes compared with delivering on your back (Gupta et al 2017).How can positions help change your second phase of labour experience?Īn article by Huang, J et al investigated how maternal positions can affect the second stage of labour and position baby best. Here is where your baby is fully delivered and exits the pelvis. Your bub will turn their head to the side causing the shoulders to be delivered at the same time. In this position the head and shoulders are delivered. Your baby’s head must move underneath your pubic bone as it exits the pelvis. In this position baby’s head has moved to the entrance of the vagina. This movement continues to assist the position of bub so the smallest part of their head may be delivered first. By turning their head, the shoulders and body turns and aligns their body to face your spine and the back of their head faces your pubic bone. This next stage your baby is turning their head to look towards your spine. They do this by tucking their chin to their chest to be able to turn and accommodate for the shape of your sacrum. To be delivered vaginally baby needs to find a way to face your spine. This means that their bodies and heads will be facing the side of the pelvis. As they descend, their heads will be transverse. In the week leading up to your delivery try to avoid slouching on the couch or spending prolonged times on your back to avoid baby’s spine facing your spine.ĭuring the second phase of labour, your baby has moved further into the pelvis. They should be head down and their spine should be facing away from your spine. In this phase your little one is moving down towards the pelvic outlet. These 2 phases can happen days or weeks before labour even begins. By learning about how babies enter the world, you can prepare yourself in different positions during labour to assist. These are positions they move through to be able to exit the pelvis. During labour your little one is moving through what is called the 7 cardinal movements of labour. Even before you begin labour your infant has begun positioning themselves ready for delivery. QI Macros Add-in for Excel can create a scatter plot in seconds and will calculate the slope and R² for you. However, you have to find the right chart to get a trend line and Excel will not calculate the R² for you. Theyre just x-y plots, with the predictor. Scatter Plots can be made manually or in Excel. Scatter diagrams are the easiest way to graphically represent the relationship between two quantitative variables. NOTE: Our Scatter Plot Diagram does NOT calculate the Equivalence Point for you - it can be identified by the end user where the graph is the steepest.Īlso, if you have identified the Equivalence Point, simply hover over it - Excel will provide you with the value. Select your data and then select the "Scatter" macro from the "Box, Dot & Scatter Plot" drop-down menu: Most statistics books imply that this means that you have a strong correlation.Ĭan I create a Titration Curve in Excel using QI Macros?Ĭertainly! Make sure that you have a column of Volume data that represents your X-Axis, along with a column of pH data that represents your Y-Axis. Its flexibility allows for the customization of markers, colors, sizes, and other properties, providing a dynamic means of representing complex data patterns. If R², the correlation of determination (square of the correlation coefficient), is greater than 0.8, then 80% of the variability in the data is accounted for by the equation.

One thing that consistently came up was people not fully understanding how the game’s society works. After we decided that we were at a solid stopping point, we sat around and talked about the game as a whole as well as the adventure. The world of Shadowrun is extremely vast and complex and without a basic working knowledge of the world’s story, it definitely detracts from the overall experience of the game. On more than one occasion, I had some of my players scratching their heads as to why NPCs were behaving certain ways, which was a direct result of their lack of knowledge about the game world. To be fair, this one is somewhat my fault as a DM. Make Sure Everyone is Familiar With the Game’s History/Background PnP’s are PnPs right?” As a group, we all decided that before we attempted to play another game of Shadowrun (so we could finish our first adventure) everyone should be MUCH more familiar with the basic rules and how to do things within the game.Ģ. Not surprisingly, no one really bothered mostly because they figured “How hard could it be? I can already recite most of the DnD core books by heart at this point. Before we even sat down to create characters and play, I made sure everyone had at least a PDF version of the core manual and told them to read through it at least once. how to make a test, how many actions are allowed per combat turn, what does every single abbreviation mean on the character sheet, etc. I can’t tell you how many times I had to explain how basic rules worked: i.e. Having everyone familiar with HOW to do things and make various tests/checks is crucial. All of those games run on d20 systems, however Shadowrun is a d6 system and is wildly different than anything else I’ve played before. We have all played every version of DnD to date as well as Star Wars RPG, among others. The group I played with is just as, if not more, experienced than I am in Pen and Paper style games. Make Sure Everyone is Familiar With the Rules However, what I did learn is a few tips for anyone looking to get into playing Shadowrun or DMing their own Runs.ġ. Moving on, our game session last night started around 6:00pm and we didn’t finish until about 2:00am, and we did not even finish the adventure I had prepared. The group of people I play with plays mainly 3rd edition DnD, however I do have experience with 4th edition DnD. My tabletop game experience consists of about 10 years of Dungeons and Dragons. However, by default that made me the resident expert in my group for Shadowrun since no one else had ever played it, thus I was unanimously elected DM for the session. I had only played Shadowrun once before in my life, many years ago. Last night, a group of my close friends and I decided to play a game of 4th edition (labeled as 4e from here on) Shadowrun. Now, let’s move on to the point of this post: Shadowrun! However, that being said, I’m going to try and make an honest effort to be slightly more active. It has been a while since my last post, however school has swamped me with work so I’ve been rather busy, and will be fairly busy for the next 2-3 weeks as the semester winds to a close. The ball makes a hard bounce off pink blocker's hand, goes over to the other side, blue team automatically stops playing because they thought it was a blocked serve. He contacts the ball when the ball has at least some portion across the horizontal plane of the top tape. Pink team's middle front row player puts one single hand up as the ball crosses over the vertical plane of the net. So here's a call I made (or didn't make) before I fully dug into the rulebook to find the answer.īlue team serves the ball to pink team. As we said earlier, a block was defined as reaching higher than the top of the net, no matter where the ball was contacted. All I can find is section 14.5 "To block an opponent's service is forbidden," and section 14.6.3 "Blocking the opponent's service" is a blocking fault. So when is an attack a fault? Section 13.2.4 says "No player is permitted to complete an attack hit on the OPPONENT’S service, when the ball is in the front zone and entirely higher than the top of the net." Does this imply that if you attack the ball on a serve, when any part of the ball has crossed the vertical plane of the net AND the horizontal plane of the top tape, it is not a fault? What's an attack? Section 13.1.1 states "All actions which direct the ball towards the opponent, with the exception of service and block, are considered as attack hits." What's a block? According to chapter 4 section 14.1 A block is "the action of players close to the net to intercept the ball coming from the opponent by reaching higher than the top of the net, regardless of the height of the ball contact." Let's start here referencing FIVB Rulebook for 2021-2024. Rules about blocking or attacking a serve. There's one part that I'm unclear about that the rulebook isn't doing me any favors in clarifying it. I broke my wrist recently and haven't been able to play so I officiated some games as the next best thing and have been enjoying it.
