I thought it would be fun to walk you through the process so you too can create your own origami lotus at home. With the help of Chrissy over at Paper Kawaii I was able to craft a beautiful paper flower! The process was actually very simple and required few materials. A couple weeks ago I decided to put my patience to the test and master a simple origami lotus flower. While my friends were whipping up paper cranes and flowers, I was still trying to master the paper airplane.

There is a HUGE gap between these two dates. Now the song ws originally written in 1951, and her memories supposedly originally occured 500 years ago. Knowledge of Fly Me to the Moon before it's time?It is shown that in Bayonetta's flashbacks that she remembers hearing the Fly Me to the Moon song. The white hair belongs to Bayonetta, since as shown here ◊, her outfit isn't entirely black. Jeanne was floating in space at the time Bayonetta summoned Queen Sheba, so she wasn't there, or else Bayonetta wouldn't be surprised when she showed up later on during the credits.This Troper always assumed the white hair that shows up in the final summoning belonged to Jeanne, not Bayonetta.B-girl appears to be a Dragonball Z character playing in a lower power-level world. It's noted within the game that Jeanne is something of a major prodigy, and even after Bayonetta sleeps for five hundred years and gets amnesia, Jeanne only catches up for a little while before being surpassed again. Not to mention the fact that Bayonetta punches Jubileus into the sun and is remarkably more powerful than other Umbra witches.He doesn't start becoming the monster we see him as in the first game until after Rosa's death and the time-traveling events that end with him containing Loptr's evil soul inside his body. ![]() Going by Bayonetta 2, Balder's love for Rosa and Cereza was truly genuine.The reason the two groups never before intermarried was a mixture of prejudice and an attempt to distribute power so as to avoid this result a sort of checks-and-balances arrangement to keep any one man or woman from having influence over both Eyes. He deliberately seduced Bayonetta's mother and set the two groups on their path to mutual destruction purely because he wanted to be the only one with power over his (artificial? it seems to be powered by human sacrifice) Jubileus. Balder is described as being motivated solely by self-interest. The bit about a sacred rule of not intermixing the two was probably set up to avoid said resurrection in the first place. Just about, both groups, at first, seemed devoted to protecting the balance between Dark and Light, until Balder started plotting the Resurrection of Jubileus, starting by fathering Bayonetta, then, once she grew in power, attacking the Umbra Witches to presumably absorb her and revive said Jubileus.Bayonetta's father was a Lumen Sage.and that's terrible?The Umbran witches make a big hullabaloo about 'destroying the balance between dark and light' and treat her like some demi-human destroyer of the universe.but I didn't really see any sign of her being influenced by her mixed heritage, with the possible exception of the white hair in the final summoning, and even then Jeanne has white hair in her magic so.did I miss something or was it just a form of Fantastic Racism? ![]() He uses gum and a rubber band to knock the teacher blind then he proceeds down to the hallway to get the keys, but again.

The added green really pays off for Kydele, too. For the life of me I'll never understand why Forgotten Creation is only in 23% of Kydele + Vial Smasher decks, because it too grants you an enormous mana boost before your turn even begins. Nekusar likes Brainstorm just fine, but Kydele turns it into a Dark Ritual. This opens her up to several cards Nekusar doesn't really want, such as Arjun, the Shifting Flame and Ancient Excavation. She doesn't use wheel effects to ping opponents, she uses them because they're inexpensive cards that net her a lot of mana. Unlike Nekusar, Kydele doesn't care about the cards your opponents draw, just the cards you draw. However, there's some extra zest in there too: On Kydele and Vial Smasher's EDHREC page, we see a lot of the same cards from Nekusar Teferi's Puzzle Box, Psychosis Crawler, lots of wheels, etc. ![]() That kind of popularity probably illuminates how effective Kydele is at her job. If so, might I propose a popular pair of powerful partners from the Entropic Uprising precon? Kydele and Vial Smasher are almost the most popular partner duo on EDHREC, second only to Kydele's combination with Thrasios, Triton Hero. Perhaps Nekusar isn't quite your style, or you'd like to hang onto the green in Leovold's color identity. Ol' Leo didn't let your opponents draw cards, but Nekusar makes them afraid of doing so, which makes for a different but still pleasantly cruel experience. (My personal favorite is Phyrexian Tyranny, which should absolutely be in more than just 37% of Nekusar decks.) When every card your opponents draw is like a Lightning Bolt to the face, all those wheel spells start to look just as unfriendly as they did in Leovold's deck. It's also Underworld Dreams, Psychosis Crawler, Kederekt Parasite, and many, many more. It's not just Nekusar that slowly pings opponents. The most dangerous aspect of a Nekusar deck is its redundancy. So a Leovold deck transitioning into a Nekusar deck would need to pick up more than just the wheel spells. It doesn't draw you any cards at all, but it's in over half of Nekusar decks. While Leovold uses Howling Mine to selfishly draw cards just for himself, Nekusar would probably play the Mine even if it didn't draw him any cards at all. Unlike Leovold, he actually wants your opponents to draw cards. His strategy is quite a bit different, of course. He has eleven different wheel effects in his Top and Signature Cards alone, including many red cards Leovold didn't have access to, such as Winds of Change and Molten Psyche. You don't need me to tell you how powerfully he synergizes with Windfall and friends. Nekusar, the Mindrazer is presently the fifth most popular commander of all time, with over 1,500 decks to his name. So where else can these kinds of cards find a home? Thankfully, we've seen wheel effects before, in many other decks, so we don't have to go far to find them a new home. His Top Cards, meanwhile, include a few tutor spells, to find the Box, not to mention a few choice counterspells to keep Leovold safe. Unsurprisingly, we see these kinds of spells littered all over Leovold's Signature Cards. Since it technically triggers after players have drawn their card during the draw phase, the Puzzle Box could keep your opponents permanently handless. However, the worst culprit was easily Teferi's Puzzle Box. Casting a pseudo- Cabal Conditioning for only three mana is pretty insane. This, Whispering Madness, and Dark Deal can bring your opponents down to only one card in hand. Windfall and other blue or black wheel spells are certainly the most famous. Since your opponents can't draw more than one card per turn, mass draw and 'wheel' effects were enormously powerful. What were Leovold's most popular cards? Signature CardsĪs we can see, a typical Leovold, Emissary of Trest deck's strategy was fairly straightforward. This time around, we're going to take a look at the most popular cards from Leovold's deck and compare them to several other commanders, to help find those cards a new home. Therefore, for this Commander Showdown, we're going to do something a little different. This series is all about comparison and contrast, but not just between two commanders. ![]() It'd be a shame to just scrap the deck entirely! Due to demand in Legacy, he's not exactly a cheap commander, and neither are the cards in his deck. Since Leovold had over 700 decks here on EDHREC, this probably stings for quite a few folks. (If you'd like to read the full announcement, you can do so here.) If you haven't already heard, EDH had a bit of a shakeup this past Monday: Leovold, Emissary of Trest is now banned in Commander. No doubt the trading environment that we face today is completely different than the one in the 1930’s when Elliott first developed his wave principle. In addition, these machines trade ultra fast in seconds or even milliseconds buying and selling based on proprietary algos. The proliferation of computer-based and algorithmic trading breed a new category of traders who trade purely based on technicals, probabilities, and statistics without the human emotional aspect. The development of computer technology and Internet is perhaps the most important progress that shape and characterize the 21st century. 1.5 The Rise of Algorithmic / Computer-based Trading ![]() The scheme above is used in all of EWF’s charts. Elliott acknowledged 9 degrees of waves from the Grand Super Cycle degree which is usually found in weekly and monthly time frame to Subminuette degree which is found in the hourly time frame. In a bear market the dominant trend is downward, so the pattern is reversed-five waves down and three up 1.4 Wave DegreeĮlliott Wave degree is an Elliott Wave language to identify cycles so that analyst can identify position of a wave within overall progress of the market. The 3 waves A, B, and C make up a larger degree corrective wave (2) Corrective waves start with a five-wave counter-trend impulse (wave A), a retrace (wave B), and another impulse (wave C). The 5 waves move in wave 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 make up a larger degree motive wave (1)Ĭorrective waves subdivide into 3 smaller-degree waves, denoted as ABC. ![]() Wave 2 and 4 are corrective waves and they are subdivided into 3 smaller degree waves labelled as ((a)), ((b)), and ((c)). In Figure 1, wave 1, 3 and 5 are motive waves and they are subdivided into 5 smaller degree impulses labelled as ((i)), ((ii)), ((iii)), ((iv)), and ((v)). Impulses are always subdivided into a set of 5 lower-degree waves, alternating again between motive and corrective character, so that waves 1, 3, and 5 are impulses, and waves 2 and 4 are smaller retraces of waves 1 and 3. In Elliott’s model, market prices alternate between an impulsive, or motive phase, and a corrective phase on all time scales of trend. 1.3 The Five Waves Pattern (Motive and Corrective) This information (about smaller patterns fitting into bigger patterns), coupled with the Fibonacci relationships between the waves, offers the trader a level of anticipation and/or prediction when searching for and identifying trading opportunities with solid reward/risk ratios. In this sense, Elliott Waves are like a piece of broccoli, where the smaller piece, if broken off from the bigger piece, does, in fact, look like the big piece. Ideally, smaller patterns can be identified within bigger patterns. These patterns can be seen in long term as well as short term charts. The three wave correction is labelled as a, b, and c. The movement in the direction of the trend is labelled as 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Simply put, movement in the direction of the trend is unfolding in 5 waves (called motive wave) while any correction against the trend is in three waves (called corrective wave). 1.2 Basic Principle of the 1930’s Elliott Wave Theory Elliott first published his theory of the market patterns in the book titled The Wave Principle in 1938. Elliott based part his work on the Dow Theory, which also defines price movement in terms of waves, but Elliott discovered the fractal nature of market action. Inspired by the Dow Theory and by observations found throughout nature, Elliott concluded that the movement of the stock market could be predicted by observing and identifying a repetitive pattern of waves.Įlliott was able to analyze markets in greater depth, identifying the specific characteristics of wave patterns and making detailed market predictions based on the patterns. He was an American accountant and author. 2.5 Relation between Fibonacci and Elliott Waveġ) Elliott Wave Theory: Modern Theory for 21st Century Market 1.1 What is Elliott Wave Theory?Įlliott Wave Theory is named after Ralph Nelson Elliott (28 July 1871 – 15 January 1948).2.4 Fibonacci Retracement and Extension. ![]() 1.5 The Rise of Algorithmic / Computer-Based Trading.1.3 Five Waves Pattern (Motive and Corrective).1.2 Basic Principle of the 1930’s Elliott Wave Theory.Elliott Wave Theory 1) Elliott Wave Theory: Modern Theory for 21st Century Market ![]() ![]() It is always advised to let someone know where you plan to go and how long you expect to be.

It is a canyon cut through the mountains by an ancient river. It is the only sea-level gap in the coastal mountain range for hundreds of miles. Why does the fog come through the Golden Gate? The water vapor cools and condenses into tiny water droplets – fog. Fog is formed when the moist air over the ocean is cooled by cold water currents along Northern California’s coast. Warm air is less dense and exerts less pressure than cooler air, allowing the cooler ocean air to push its way in through the Golden Gate. Another foghorn at midspan between the towers sounds a pair of high-pitched notes.įog is most common in the summer, when the air over the interior land heats up more than over the ocean. The south tower foghorn sounds a deep, loud note for 2 seconds, then it repeats in 18 seconds. Then, wait about 2 seconds to hear the sound waves reach your ears through the air, traveling a little faster than a jet airliner.
