Ethan injects Eveline, she turns into a giant monster, and Ethan is given a powerful experimental Samurai Edge to defeat her. Ethan is freed by Mia, and depending on if you cured her or not she dies sacrificing herself to save Ethan from Eveline.Įthan obtains a super powerful version of the serum from the ship that can destroy Eveline, and makes his way through the plantation to confront her, learning along the way that Lucas was working with the mysterious corporation and that he managed to escape from the plantation before he could be confronted. Eveline is revealed to be Grandma Baker, who has aged rapidly due to not being maintained by the corporation's handlers. Ethan is trapped in some mold and is experiencing some weird shared consciousness that involves all other people infected by the mold, where he has a meeting with Jack Baker, who explains that they took Eveline in, and that she infected them in order to turn them into some twisted sort of family. Along the way, we learn through documents Mia finds that Eveline is a self-aware BOW bred by a mysterious corporation who was going to sell it to the highest bidder, and that Mia was aboard the ship as some sort of handler for Eveline. The player then takes control of Mia as she goes to rescue Ethan from a ship that ran aground next to the Baker plantation. Either way, Zoe is killed by someone called "Eveline", and Ethan is captured by Eveline. Zoe has two serums that can cure the infection in people, but Jack Baker comes back super heavily mutated and Ethan is forced to use one of the serums on Jack, who is too far mutated to be cured and dies from the effects.Įthan then has to pick who to administer the remaining serum to: Mia or Zoe. Afterwards Ethan encounters Zoe, Jack and Marguerite's daughter who isn't crazy like the rest of them, but is still infected. Ethan then has to deal with Lucas trying to kill him in a series of traps, and he finds and frees Mia. Crazy Mia cuts off Ethan's hand, and after knocking her out, Ethan himself gets knocked out by Jack Baker.Įthan wakes up in the Baker's main house, roams around, fights Jack a few times, and eventually makes it out to a different part of the Baker plantation, where he deals with Marguerite. He goes it rescue her, but it turns out she's been infected by something that causes her to shift between her normal self and this crazy monster girl. If they are available for every run after the first completion, then a category where complete the game while accomplishing all of these challenges could exist.Ethan gets a message from his wife Mia who's been missing for 3 years. It is unknown if they will be available for all runs on that difficulty from that point forward or if they will only be achievable once. It could be fun, there is a Punches Thrown counter that shows up on the stats screen.Įxtreme Challenges - After completing a difficulty you unlock the ability to do Extreme Challenges for that difficulty. This would have to include the use of the Advanced Multi-Purpose Gauntlet since it is necessary for completion. It is currently unknown for certain if you could complete the game using only melee, as it has yet to be attempted, but if so we could have this as a category. This could be a category similar to knife% in the main run where it follows new game rules with melee as your only option. Melee% or Punchy% - In End of Zoe you can kill enemies without the use of weapons. Aside from their growing investments, Steven continues to freelance, which brings in some income. This is because they don't intend to stop earning in ways that fit their current lifestyle. Since you are just waiting for your portfolio to double one time, the math behind Flamingo FI comes down to the very simple rule of 72. In late 2015 and early 2016, I spent a lot of time reading books on investing as well as some of the earlier FIRE blogs (all US-based at that time). But first, let me share how I came up with the idea to cut our FIRE journey in half. To do that, it’s simply your annual expenses multiplied by 25. The Keys write on their site that they'll probably never actually live off the 4% or 25x rules to the letter. Today we’ll talk about the shockingly simple math behind Flamingo FI. The Simple Math to Retirement Equation With your annual expenses in hand, you can calculate how much you’ll need in investments and be able to safely withdraw 4 per year. If you plan to retire early, you may need to save more than 25x of your current expenses to sufficient retirement funds. Instead of using the 25x or 4% formula as a hard rule for your retirement plan, consider using it as a starting guideline. As Insider's Leo Aquino previously reported, even the financial advisor who created the 4% rule found that retirees are using it too simplistically new guidance from Morningstar recommends expecting to withdraw closer to 3% annually. Note that the 25x rule isn't perfect, and experts disagree on the effectiveness of the proposed withdrawal rate. With your annual expenses in hand, you can calculate how much youll need in investments and be able to safely withdraw. This figure is also predicated on the assumption that your savings are invested as opposed to being held in cash, as the formula accounts for compound interest earned in the stock market. This is contingent on you needing $50,000 a year for 30 years to retire and doesn't account for variable factors such as health costs, which may increase after retirement. As that article grew in popularity, a calculator was created based on the post. Realizing what it’ll take to reach that milestone might help push you to make it a reality. Having 25 times your current income invested in retirement accounts like an IRA or 401(k) suggests that you'll be able to safely withdraw 4% of your retirement income every year.įor example, if your current expenses are $50,000 and you multiply that by 25, your baseline retirement fund would be $1,250,000. The Shockingly Simple Math Behind Early Retirement shows you how long it’ll take you to become financially free based on your savings rate. To correctly use the 25x rule, start by determining your current annual expenses, making sure to include costs like fixed monthly expenses, health costs, property taxes, and other variable monthly expenses. One year of annual expenses x 25 = the baseline amount you must save for retirement As many of you know, Mister Money Mustache (MMM) wrote a blog post entitled The Shockingly Simple Math Behind Early Retirement that if nothing else gives. Using the 25x rule can give you a ballpark number of how much you'll need by the time you retire. Account icon An icon in the shape of a person's head and shoulders.
For instance, the existence of the Jishu Itabei shows that groups of Jishu followers existed around Ugo-chou and Nishimonai in the end of Kamakura Era.

It begins from the story of Maha Maudgalyayana (Mokuren). Buy Obon Festival Bon Dance Japanese Buddhism T-Shirt Sweatshirt: Shop top fashion brands Sweatshirts at FREE. The origin of the Obon is generally linked to the Ullambana-sutra which tells the story of Mogallana, one of the great disciples of the Buddha. Some of the dancers wear beautiful patchwork kimono ( hanui) and conical straw hats ( amigasa) folded down over their heads. This Buddhist festival has been celebrated for over 500 years. The moves of the women participating in the odori (dance) are flowing and elegant, contrasting with the lively hayashi (festival music) performed by men on drums, flutes, and other instruments. The Nishimonai Bon Odori, held on August 16–18 in Ugomachi, Akita Prefecture, has become well known and now attracts many visitors. Usually, the bon dance involves people dancing around a yagura, which is a high wooden scaffold made of wood erected especially for this festival. These dances and the music that accompanies them are different for every region of Japan. Every summer in communities around Japan residents gather to dance in observance of Bon (or Obon), when the spirits of the departed are believed to visit the homes of the living. It is originally a dance to welcome the spirits of the dead. It was taken over by the Elewana Collection in 2015.

We check in to our lovely cottage, a rustic tree house overlooking the lush green forest. Here,we are welcomed by the property managers George and Theresa Van Wyk plus a few curious hyraxes running around the property.Īfter a short briefing, we are escorted to our rooms along a path, which is reminiscent of a forest filled with bird song. One hour later, we pull up to Elewana Elsa’s Kopje perched on the famous Mughwango Hill. It’s our first time in Meru National park and it’s exciting to say the least. The first thing that amazes us as we enter the park is the number of different species of birds that we spot as we make our way along the track. We chose the latter route as it was more familiar. There are two routes to Meru National Park, we soon found out, the quickest one goes through Isiolo and the other via Meru Town. It’s one of the most well-known lodges in Kenya and is steeped in history. You know that excitement when you’ve wanted to stay at a place at the longest time and a window finally opens up to do it? Well that’s how I felt when I was invited to stay at Elewana Elsa’s Kopje in Meru National Park. The wax is extracted after the final dyeing and the fabric is ready to wear or show.Ĭontemporary batik is significantly different from traditional and formal styles, possibly similar to much of the past. To make more intricate and vibrant designs, this waxing and dyeing cycle can be repeated. The wax-covered pieces avoid the color and remain the original color. Selected cloth areas are covered by brushing or drawing hot wax over them to create a batik, and then the fabric is dyed. The word batik is used to portray the Javanese titik. Batik is part of an antique tradition in Java, Indonesia, and there are still some of the finest batik fabrics on earth. For centuries, wax and dye decoration techniques have been applied. As Pekalongan used to become the point of transit for traders from different countries, it was so acculturated that Pekalongan batik is very unique to nature, particularly jlamprang motifs, buketan motifs, motifs of the bright moon, cement motifs, pisan bali and lung-lungan motifs.Īrticle reference: Facts of Indonesia websiteīatik is both an art and a corporation that becomes progressively famous as a marvelously creative medium and popular in the West. This is demonstrated by various combinations of Chinese and local cultures. In addition, Pekalongan batik displays the motifs of animals or plants. It seven-way Pekalongan model is very rich with natural complexities. Often this batik is most commonly seen with Indonesian batik motifs. The exception is only the brightness or emphasis. This inspiration was generated in central Java and Jogjakarta. On the four sides of the kolang kaling in a triangle, the oblong shape is shaped. This batik was inspired by the kind of kolang kaling fruit. It is however said that kawung batik only evolved in 1755 in the age of Hadiningrad, Ngayogyakarta. Kawung Batik is an ancient Javanese symbol, shaped like a bird on four sides, which according to historical documents has been around since the 9th century. Not just motifs that are cloud-like, solid color images, but spiritual principles contained in the motifs, are the peculiarities of the Megamendung motif. The design of Megamendung was once used in the cover of a foreign book on Batik, a Dutch national named Pepin van Roojen. Throughout foreign countries, megamendung motif is recognized as a key motif throughout batik. The Indonesian Ministry of Culture and Tourism must report UNESCO’s megamendung intention to gains acceptance as a world heritage, also because it is only in Cirebon and is a masterpiece. This batik pattern is unique to other batik development areas. In Cirebón, and other sections of Indonesia, megamendung batik is an identical batik work, even a batik symbol. There is, for instance, a Parang Rusak and Parang Barong pattern in Yogyakarta, Parang Slobog in Central Java, and Klisik Parang in West Java. The disparity usually lies only in the machete batik motif’s sound. The motif’s outline is formed with a short, wavy tilt like the letter “S.” Parang’s motif is scattered all over Indonesia, starting with Central Java, Yogyakarta, and West Java. The term parang is derived from pereng and italics. Parang Rusak Batik is commonly used in various batik crafts. There is a deep significance to the Parang Rusak batik symbol, namely human fighting against life and desire. Parang Rusak batik motif is a very common batik motif among lovers of batik. This batik pattern must have been seen or encountered several times. Try scanning areas with a high concentration of spores like the Secret Lab.
