![]() He was also critical of the program blurring the images of damage to sheep attacked by wild dogs, while showing images of distressed dogs unedited. Mr Mifsud said the 7.30 Report footage of dogs shown in distress in traps was influenced by those filming the animals. “Absolutely, the fact that they released this just after the government going into caretaker mode is a perfect example of that.” Mr Mifsud said the 7.30 Report program represented an attempt to make wild dog management a political issue. “These include alert systems that notify wild dog controllers of a dog in a trap and devices that will deliver a lethal dose of poison to render the animals unconscious followed by a humane death soon after being captured.” He said the Centre for Invasive Species Solutions is working with its partners including the Victorian Government on solutions to limit the time wild dogs remain in traps. Mr Mifsud said the reduction of wild dogs and foxes under the humane and best practice baiting and trapping program has resulted in reduced stock losses whilst maintaining healthy populations of dingoes in the state’s national parks and state forests in the east of the state. “Professional wild dog controllers are required to dispatch those wild dogs under a current nationally agreed code of practice and standard operating procedures, which they do with the utmost professionalism.” “Once they are established in these areas, they are much harder to control as the tools currently used are limited in built-up areas, putting at risk livestock and domestic pets on rural properties and hobby farms. Mr Mifsud if dingoes dispersing from the parks aren’t controlled in the 3km livestock protection zone they will move out and likely attack livestock and domestic pets on bordering properties and possibly on the outskirts of regional townships and communities. “The annual number of wild dogs trapped hasn’t declined which would indicate the dingo population inside the national park is healthy, sustainable and producing the same number of offspring each year,” he said. The dingo population in the Victorian landscape remained healthy and was not threatened with extinction, he said. Mr Mifsud said an average of 500-600 wild dogs have been removed by the wild dog program trappers in the east of the state each year for the past decade. Mr Mifsud said the wild dog control program delivered within a 3km livestock protection zone on national park boundaries acting similar to a firebreak protecting park and private land, limiting wild dogs moving onto private land to kill livestock and equally limiting domestic dogs moving into the vast national parks and breeding with the protected dingo. The action plan said the ABC 7.30 Report program failed to mention wild dogs, dingoes and dingo-like dogs are distributed right across Victoria’s Alpine National Park. “The management program is facilitating the conservation of dingoes in the national park system in eastern Victoria.” ![]() “Those wild dogs caught moving out of the parks and continuing onto private lands where they cause an impact are killed,” he said. ![]() “A total of 80 percent of the national parks and state forests is protecting dingoes, wild dogs and their hybrids where they undertake their ecosystem role and are part of the biodiversity. National Wild Dog Management coordinator Greg Mifsud said 20 percent of the state’s national park and state forests is being managed for wild dogs in the perimeter of the public estate east of the Hume Highway. The animal rights group said the ABC 7.30 Report program aired “harrowing” footage obtained by Defend The Wild, of dingoes being trapped and killed by state government wild dog controllers in the state’s north.Īlso in response to the 7.30 Report program, the National Wild Dog Action Plan declared it supported the conservation of protected dingoes in Victoria’s national parks whilst limiting the impacts of wild dogs on neighbouring properties. The issue was highlighted by an ABC 7.30 Report program on 14 November that featured footage of wild dogs/dingoes in traps as part of the National Wild Dog Action Plan measures.Īfter the ABC program, Animals Australia called for the Andrews Government in Victoria to “stop killing Victoria’s threatened dingoes before they become the latest species to join the state’s growing list of extinct mammals.” WILD dog control in Victoria is set to become an election issue as dingo proponents urge an end to current management practices and farmers campaign to halt the proposed introduction of dingoes into some parks.

The most excruciating thing that can happen regularly is that your carts break down and you're crippled, particularly if you just spent all your money on goods (which is reasonable) and you arrive someplace where it's cheaper than what you paid for it. Excruciating random events: Early in the game, the random tolls and attacks and what-have-you are minimal. Surely, Ore will be consistently cheaper in cities near mountains, right? Nope!

But. And you're right, that makes no sense and serves literally no purpose other than to make the game that much harder by cutting into your profit margins. Practically, this means that if you buy food for 10 and go to a place where it is being sold for 11.5, you will not make a profit even though you are transporting a commodity from where it is plentiful to where it is more scarce. Every good's selling price is less than its buying price at the same location by a given percentage. In MoK, the system is slanted against you.

What bothered us are the sparkles which seem to appear everywhere no matter which of the two difficulty modes you choose to play – there are even sparkles on the areas that have no objectives whatsoever. ![]() There are two modes of Hidden Object scenes, finding multiple items and the standard-list type – puzzles are nothing much, all of them are the same old. ![]() It has all the basic features except a interactive jump-map, the gameplay is nothing special straightforward and fairly easy. Echoes of Sorrow II has quite a simple but frustrating gameplay. The soundtracks are good though, they are orchestral and have done a good job in building the excitement. The graphics are grainy and look like the game has been put on the shelf for a little while. The game consists of both bright and dark scenes, the artwork is fine, but the quality is not there. No matter how exciting the story might sound the production values of this game are fairly low. That seems like a lot isn’t it? You then need to use the Mind Machine to teleport into your dead husband’s mind and solve all the secrets and reveal all the truth behind this murderous plan. It begins when Luke, your previous lover shot your husband dead as well as killed your father and kidnapped your children. The story in Echoes of Sorrow II is all about love, betrayal and tragedy with a interesting plotline. Reference accessed HERE 7th October 2018 The Game: The first Echoes of Sorrow game was such a blast to play at the time it was released, however, there seems to be not much improvement during the three years gap between the first game and this sequel. Become entranced by this immersive story as you solve challenging puzzles, find scattered clues, and reclaim your kidnapped children. It's a whole new world inside his head-a world not as bright and joyful as the one on the outside-and in the face of tragedy, you must navigate the darkness to unravel the events of that fateful night.

That equals a cost per gigabyte of 6 cents for the 1TB drive, 4 cents for the 2TB model, 2.8 cents for the 4TB unit, and 3 cents for 5TB. In addition to the 5TB version I tested, WD offers three other capacities for the Windows version of the drive, with list prices of $59.99 for 1TB, $79.99 for 2TB, and $119.99 for 4TB. Just be sure to back up any files on the drive first, so you can copy them back when you're done. You can, of course, reformat either version with the other file system to use the drive with the other OS, or reformat with exFAT if you want to move the drive freely between Windows systems and Macs. My Passport drives for Windows come formatted in the NTFS file system the Mac versions come with HFS+. Keep in mind that while you can connect the drive to a USB 2.0 port, that will slow data transfer to USB 2.0 speeds. When the drive is connected and working, you can see a status light near the port. The port uses a Micro-USB Type-B connector to match the included cable (or cables, if you get the Mac version more on that in a minute). Pick up the drive, and it feels like a solid, well-built product.Īside from the seam that joins the top and bottom sections of the case together, the only obvious detail on the smooth sides of the case is a USB 3.2 Gen 1 port on the short side (top edge) near the logo. The partially rippled surface covers half of both the top and bottom, running from one corner to the diagonal center line on both, while an understated WD logo occupies the upper right corner of the top. Fit and finish are excellent, with no screws needed to hold the case together and no sharp edges to catch on clothing or a bag. The My Passport at least arguably earns WD's description of it as "stylish." The drive I have for testing, pictured here, is black, but you can also get versions formatted for Windows in a red or blue case, or one formatted for the Mac in a darker blue case only. Add a choice of colors, a size that can fit in a shirt pocket, a range of capacities from 1TB to 5TB (5TB is the top capacity you can get at the moment for a single-drive portable hard drive), and easy-to-find discounts from list price, and the WD My Passport is a clear standout and our new Editors' Choice among high-capacity portable hard drives. The ripples also help keep the drive from slipping out of your hand easily. Slightly rounded edges and ripples over part of the surface give the My Passport drive the look and tactile-friendly feel of a consumer gadget. One of the differences between a generic external hard drive and a top contender like the WD My Passport ($149.99 for the 5TB model tested here) is the manufacturer's added effort to make a simple plastic box look attractive.

The glider reaches a position of several thousand feet altitude using a tow plane and cable, just like any other glider, then is cut loose to position itself to ride the Andes mountain waves. The current Perlan 2’s wings are designed to handle six Gs of gravity with daylight flight times of up to nine hours. “We’re going to prove that these mountain waves are exactly what enable the aircraft to soar to 90,000 feet.” “All the climate models assume there’s no mixing between the stratosphere and below but there really is,” said McArtor. ![]() The waves themselves are kicked up by winds that blow over high mountain regions such as the andes and propagate upward as high as 130,000 feet at speeds of more than 260 knots. ‘Perlan,’ Icelandic for ‘pearl,’ refers to a type of lenticular cloud that only form at high altitude inside these stratospheric mountain waves. The Perlan Project owes its current fortunes to the ground-breaking work of Perlan’s founder, NASA test pilot Einar Enevoldson, who during back in the 1990s first collected evidence that stratospheric mountain waves actually exist. “It’s in that region of suborbital space that Perlan 2 will be flying.” “Airbus recently filed a patent for hypersonic passenger craft that will go to suborbital space and back down again,” said McArtor. Its glider wings can fly in less than three per cent of normal air density at temperatures of minus 70☌, approximating the atmospheric conditions on Mars.Airbus says that any insight gained into flight at increasingly higher altitudes also has implications for the future of both sub-sonic and supersonic or hypersonic aviation, where given the right technology, higher operating altitudes could provide a range of potential advantages. When Perlan 2 reaches its target altitude of over 90,000ft it will be the highest a winged aircraft has ever flown in level flight. “So, this is a great opportunity for us to validate the design and performance of our solution in such extremely non-benign conditions.” “Our equipment will be in an unpressurised environment,” Duval Destin added. Marc Duval Destin, VP strategy, product policy and innovation for Thales’ Flight Avionics activities said that the Airbus Perlan Mission II aligns with Thales’ strategies for future, greener aviation and the environment. “Through this exciting partnership with Thales, we also look forward to inspiring new generations of scientists, engineers and pilots in environmentally conscious aviation.” “By exploring the stratosphere in an airborne research vehicle that creates zero pollution, we hope to unlock discoveries never possible before,” said Ed Warnock, CEO of The Perlan Project. Thales said the system’s resilience, high dependability and low size, weight and power make it adaptable to any aircraft. New altitude world record set by Airbus Perlan gliderįlytLink offers coverage and connectivity anywhere in the world for critical operations. The live feed will enable access to real-time data downloads. ![]() The world will get a ‘live, front row view’ of the stratosphere through the collaboration, Thales said, as the Perlan 2 glider is fitted with the FlytLink Thales Iridium Certus based satellite communications (satcom) system. Applications of its research include informing more accurate climate change models, innovating zero-emission aviation and demonstrating feasibility of using energy-efficient winged aircraft on Mars. The organisation’s mission is to conduct climate, atmospheric and aeronautical research at extreme high altitudes. Launched in 2015, the Perlan 2 achieved its highest record-setting flight of above 76,000 in 2018. ![]() The group has already set aviation world altitude records in the Perlan 2 glider, which was designed, built and deployed to fly to 90,000ft. Through the partnership, Thales will aim to fly its latest mobile satellite communications system, FlytLink, in a zero-emission glider to more than twice the altitude of a commercial airline flight.īased in Nevada, the Airbus Perlan Mission II team is planning for a possible return to flight this year in the US and El Calafate, Argentina. |
