He was to be used as a bargaining chip to help forge an alliance with Onaga, the former ruler of Outworld. Removing my veil, I knelt before him, "Welcome home, my master." Shao Kahn accepted my surrender and later ordered me to capture the Earthrealm warrior known as Shujinko. What a surprise it must have been when their own "princess" stabbed them from behind. As he stood before me, the two mages rushed to defend their princess, positioning themselves between Shao Kahn and myself. He shattered the door and strode in as confidently as ever. Their magic was nothing compared to the might of Shao Kahn. I hid in the throne room and commanded the Edenian mages to cast a defensive ward upon the main door. They crushed all who defended the stronghold. But my plans were foiled when the fortress was attacked - Shao Kahn had returned! And he was not alone! As I watched the initial assault from the safety of the imperial balcony, I recognized the two warriors who aided him: Goro, Prince of the Shokan, and Shang Tsung, wretched Sorcerer of Darkness - my creator. Armageddon: " Outworld was MINE! Posing as the Edenian wench Kitana, I gained command of her army and with it took control of Shao Kahn's fortress - all in the name of "peace." I had planned to continue my charade until the Edenian forces could be corrupted enough to follow me as Mileena, the true conqueror of Outworld.My only chance for revenge against her will be to serve Onaga and pose as the Princess, leading her precious alliance of Edenia and Outworld to their doom." But Baraka tells me that his new lord, the Dragon King, has possession of Kitana's body and uses it as his personal bodyguard. My hatred for Kitana consumes my every thought. After Shinnok's invasion, she cast me into her prison, where I remained until Baraka freed me. Kitana regained her memories, however, and uncovered the plot to supplant her. Deception: " I am a creation of sorcery, the hybrid of a Tarkatan warrior and the Princess of Edenia.Knowing Kitana will fight for Edenia, Mileena ensures an easy escape route is left as she moves into battle with Shinnok." Mortal Kombat Gold: " Reborn in the Netherrealm and servant to Shinnok since her rebirth, Mileena finds that a coming battle gives her a chance to both escape her fearful servitude to Shinnok and avenge her own death.Her ability to read the thoughts of her twin sister will enable Kahn to stay one step ahead." ![]() Her skills as a vicious fighter will be needed to defeat Earth's chosen warriors. Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3: " Murdered by her twin sister Kitana, Mileena finds herself brought back to life by Shao Kahn himself.At Shao Kahn's request, she is asked to watch for her twin's suspected dissension. Mortal Kombat II: " Serving as an assassin along with her twin sister Kitana, Mileena's dazzling appearance conceals her hideous intentions. 11/29/2023 0 Comments Nyc flood relief fund![]() Staffed by NYDFS employees, each services center will help residents and business owners impacted by the storm with insurance information regarding policy coverage for losses and suggestions on how to document their losses and safeguard their property. ![]() The New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) has opened five service centers for impacted families in Queens: 24-01 87th Street in East Elmhurst (9am-5pm), 46-02 47th Avenue in Sunnyside (8am-8pm), 79-01 Broadway in Elmhurst (9am-5pm), 41-40 Junction Boulevard in Corona (9am-5pm) and 90th Avenue and 183rd Street in Jamaica (9am-5pm) Hotline assistance is available in over 200 languages.

There are real head-scratchers for the older kids, sidesplitting puns for the younger crowd and even a little math thrown in there. If you're just getting started, these are the best riddles for kids. (No knock-knock joke setups here.) So, even if they have a punchline, there's still some kind of wordplay involved that needs to be worked out. But a riddle is a statement or question that has multiple meanings and needs to be solved. Sometimes it can be hard to separate riddles for kids and jokes for kids, because the answers can make you feel like you've just heard one of the corniest dad jokes. Riddles also help kids work on their logic and critical thinking skills, practice their vocabulary, stretch their problem-solving muscles and sometimes even give them a good laugh or an a-ha moment when they've reached the solution. There's also a wide selection of dressers and armoires for clothing storage, along with bins and toy boxes for an organized play space.There are so many joys to seeing kids work out a good riddle in their minds. Another option is the Emily & Meritt side table, which has a top that's shaped like a heart.Įxplore the kids nightstand and side table selection at Pottery Barn Kids to find plenty of stylish options for your child's bedroom. ![]() It's hand-carved from mango wood and has a natural washed finish for a gently weathered look.

11/29/2023 0 Comments Optoisolator circuit![]() If you want to use a capacitor to further reduce the power consumption, then I suggest a 0.022uF capacitor and a series resistor of at least 10K. So I would use two 100K 0.25W series resistors. You can express CTR as a percentage, like 50, or a single number, like 0.5. Using a base resistor in the manner shown below provides a feedback loop, which can then be used to modulate when the phototransistor reaches saturation. Typical isolating optocoupler applications include low-voltage to high-voltage (or vice versa) signal coupling, interfacing of a computer’s output signals to external electronic circuitry or electric motors, etc., and interfacing of ground-referenced low-voltage circuitry to floating high-voltage circuitry driven directly from the main’s AC powe. Ideally, CTR (IC/IF) is the ratio of the phototransistors output collector current (IC) to the LEDs forward current (IF). In a simple 2-terminal phototransistor circuit, the base resistor (RB) is omitted from the circuit model and the connection is left open. So far, I came up with the following circuit: R15+R21 limit the forward current to 14mA12V and 30mA24V. The simplest approach to define the efficiency of an Opto-coupling is to cite its output-to-input current transfer ratio (CTR). There should be some protection against reverse polarization, transient over-voltage and permanent over voltage (up to 40V) to some degree. 1mA is enough provided you don't use too low a value of pullup resistor on the other side of the opto coupler. I have to provide some isolated inputs that accept 12-24V. It isn't necessary to run the opto coupler anywhere near 10mA of current. Here is the drawing of an optocoupler : Transmitter. ![]() If the LED power source is not able to provide all the required current at the square wave frequency then the LED output will lag, and at some frequency not deliver enough light for the photo transistor.So if you can put the scope input across. As the LED takes currents from 2 to 30mA, the control voltage can generally be between 4V and 30VDC. Also, any transients on the mains will result in current surges through the opto coupler. It sort of sounds like a power availability issue more than a opto-coupler problem. When you switch the 240V mains on and the capacitor charges, you will get a 300mA surge through the opto coupler if the mains voltage happens to be near the peak part of the cycle. The 1K resistor suggested in that thread is IMO far too low a value. This universal triac controller circuit with optocoupler solves the problem that triacs have when functioning at low temperatures (triac needs higher gate current) by adding a transistor at the output of the optocoupler circuit. To avoid having to use a high wattage resistor I have connected a capacitor and resistor in series as outlined in the thread How to detect power failure? - Project Guidance - Arduino Forum using the reactance of the capacitor to drop the voltage across the input of the PS2505. 11/28/2023 0 Comments 112 operator vs 911 operator![]() None of those are solutions, and several of them are bad UX, likely to result in excess deaths.įor the first, you do not want to train drivers to ignore warnings from the car, since they are usually safety-critical.

In regards to "bad publicity" I don't buy that. Or if this feature is enabled (the previous owner enabled this), the car could see that the driving pattern is quite different (different hours during the day, different routes, speed, etc) and could then re-trigger the info screen about this feature.Įven today's cars with such tracking capabilities will sometimes ask you to approve new Privacy Policies or changes in some ToS. When the car is new or being factory reset, present a screen when the car is started (or after a couple of days) and ask about this setting. If this feature is disabled: Show a 5 second warning each time you start the car, with a possibility to get to the right settings screen. The idea is that if you crash the car, it'll tell the authorities where you crashed, if the airbags (or other safety systems) deployed, and set up a voice call between the driver and the authorities, so that appropriate emergency services (ambulance, fire) can get to you quicker than possible if we were dependent either on you being uninjured enough to make the call yourself, or on a passer-by noticing the wreck and calling for help, and also get to you fully prepared to get everyone out of the car. ![]() Note that there's a move, starting in the EU, to equip cars with accident emergency call systems like eCall, where if the car detects that you've been in a crash, and you don't tell it you're OK, it'll both send an SMS to the local equivalent of 911 carrying the sort of data specified in ITU-T Y.4467 (current location, 2 recent locations, each at least 5 seconds before the time of crash, and at least 5 seconds apart, direction of travel at time of crash, VIN, number of people detected in the car before crash, fuel type) and start a voice call to 911 using the in-car speakers and microphones.
