well, final session of that campaign over. my werewolf boy got the killing blow on the final boss - a gargantuan kraken - from inside it after it swallowed him. conjure barrage spell + four crossbow attacks with flaming bolts and the bitch exploded-

and then i rolled a nat 20 for him to do a superhero 3-point landing on the deck of the ship. a perfect ending

gonna go grab some dinner and then see about some more writing!

Franciscus Sanchez – Quod nihil scitur, I, 1

Nec unum hoc scio, me nihil scire; coniector tamen nec me, nec alios. Haec mihi vexillum propositio sit, haec sequenda venit: nihil scitur. Hanc si probare scivero, merito concludam, nil sciri; si nescivero, hoc ipso melius: id enim asserebam.

At dices: si probare scias, contrarium sequetur, aliquid enim scis iam. At ego contra prius conclusi, quam tu argueres. Iam incipio turbare rem: Ex hoc ipso iam sequitur, nil sciri. Forsan non intellexisti, meque ignarum aut cavillatorem vocas. Verum dixisti. Melius ego te, quia non intellexisti. Ignari igitur ambo. Iam ergo nesciens conclusisti quod quaerebam. Si intellexisti ambiguitatem consequentiae, aperte vidisti, nil sciri: Sin minus, cogita, distingue, et mihi solve nodum. Acue ingenium.

Persequor. A nomine rem ducamus. Mihi enim omnis nominalis definitio est, et fere omnis quaestio. Explico. Rerum naturas cognoscere non possumus, ego saltem: Si dicas, te bene, non contendam, falsum tamen est: Cur enim tu potius?

sonible presents the world’s first multitrack EQ: smart:EQ 3

sonible presents the world’s first multitrack EQ: smart:EQ 3

sonible presents the world’s first multitrack EQ: smart:EQ 3 creates spectral balance in single audio tracks and assists users in establishing transparent arrangements of multiple channels with intelligent cross-channel processing.

Achieve tonal balance with incredible speed

It only takes a single click for smart:EQ 3 to analyze any given audio track and amend spectral deficiencies, such as disturbing resonances, unwanted notches or an overall spectral imbalance. The computed smart:filter can be adapted to the user’s needs and leads to a clean, detailed sound – the ideal basis for further creative steps.

Spectral mixing via drag and drop

smart:EQ 3 also offers a group view with intelligent cross-channel processing that corrects cluttered and clashing frequency regions within a group of up to six channels. Multiple audio tracks can be arranged by the user in a sonic hierarchy of three layers. Each track is then analyzed to detect and fix masking effects. smart:EQ 3’s AI-powered algorithms utilize spectral mixing techniques that ensure each track gets its assigned space within an overall transparent arrangement.

Stay in the flow with smart:EQ 3

The EQ view, inherited from its predecessor smart:EQ 2, now sports an even leaner and more intuitive interface. Furthermore, various new features have been added to improve the user’s workflow, including filter widgets, a dynamic mode that adapts to the incoming audio signal in real time, and the option to switch between linear phase and zero latency filters.    

The driving force behind smart:EQ 3 is sonible’s now even more powerful smart:engine. This AI-based, content-aware system incorporates signal statistics, psychoacoustic principles and extensive hands-on mixing experience and can be further enhanced by applying specific profiles for distinct audio sources.

„ smart:EQ 2 was a great success. A lot of users have given us immensely valuable feedback since its release and we eagerly listened – the insights into their workflows were a great inspiration for creating a tool like smart:EQ 3. Developing highly complex features such as the cross-channel processing was a challenge, but we are convinced that the results will be incredibly helpful for any audio pro or ambitious talent out there.“ Peter Sciri, co-founder and head of development, sonible

smart:EQ 3 – key features

• smart:filter for creating spectral balance in single tracks within seconds • Cross-channel processing to establish a sonic hierarchy in a group of up to six tracks • Option to switch the smart:filter to dynamic adaption for a more consistent sound • Minimum phase and linear phase filtering for both live EQing and audio postproduction • Up to 24 standard filters to fine-tune audio tracks • Comprehensive M/S processing, multiple filter types and smart states

I decided to draw some VG-like achievements based on the latest DND adventures I’ve played.

Context:

1. “Hey Sciri”: the ranger in the group basically used her ability to talk to the forest to turn said forest into a sort of GPS system. I said at one point (after we thought of a name for it -Sciri), eeey you just created the first OI ( organic intelligence, as opposed to an artificial one-yes i know practically every living thing is an “OI” don’t @ me, it made sense in the moment).

2. “Make Art not War”: my cute Avatar-style monk rolled a 1, causing a bit of a landslide, while trying to stop an invasion of hundreds of spiky balls (the result of a mechanical war construct hellbent on destruction exploding upon being defetaed previously) but then I rolled a nat 20, so the landslide/spiky balls mix got turned into a solidified wave of mud that looked cool enough to be called a sculpture, so uh...it’s now displayed there. She’s since painted it blue and made the spiky things gold.

Leader of Iran-backed US embassy attack was welcomed by Barack Obama at White House in 2011

Hadi al-Amiri was of 'grave concern' to lawmakers as Obama's guest in 2011

Reports on Twitter state al-Amiri was taken into custody by U.S. Marines.

The leader of an Iran-backed US embassy siege in Baghdad was welcomed to the White House by Barack Obama eight years ago before becoming Tehran's 'point man' in Iraq.

Hadi al-Amiri was Iraq's minister of transport under then-Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and stood in the Oval Office as part of Maliki's delegation on a visit to the White House in December 2011.

On Tuesday, al-Amiri was among those leading the charge against the US embassy in Baghdad when it was stormed and set alight by pro-Iran militants. US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo shared a photograph of Amiri amid the rioters, condemning him as an 'Iranian proxy,' and calling those shoulder-to-shoulder with him 'terrorists.'

The head of a leading pro-Iran Shia faction, Amiri exerts great power within Iraq's state-sanctioned Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) and was highlighted by Pompeo among three other men as the ringleaders of the siege.

The ease with which Amiri and these other commanders breezed through the heavily fortified 'Green Zone' has alarmed US officials, who have noted their militia's increased presence around diplomatic buildings in recent weeks.  

A former guerrilla fighter who fought for Tehran in the Iran-Iraq War, Amiri has been accused of terrorism against the US, of helping Iran to ship arms to Bashar al-Assad in Syria and has been pictured bowing before the Islamic Republic's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.  

As Commander of the Badr Corps, an Iranian vassal within the PMF, Amiri's men helped the US in their fight against ISIS in 2014 and 2015. But a recent spate of missile attacks by the Kataeb Hezbollah branch of the PMF, climaxing last Friday with the death of an American contractor at US base north of Baghdad, has revealed that Washington's friends in the region can soon become enemies. 

President Donald Trump ordered USAF jets to decimate Kataeb Hezbollah bases and 25 were killed on Sunday night. Amiri joined thousands who flocked to funerals for the fighters in the Iraqi capital on Tuesday and then spearheaded the crowds who rushed through the Green Zone and breached the US embassy.

The 65-year-old, who was of 'grave concern' to lawmakers as Obama's guest in 2011, stood at the forefront of riots which prompted Donald Trump to deploy 750 Army paratroopers on Wednesday, with another 4,000 on standby.

Amiri would have been well known to the Pentagon as the former commander of the Badr Corps, which received funding, training and arms from Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), designated a terrorist group by Trump earlier this year. 

The transport minister from 2010 until 2014, Amiri's guerrilla past fighting on Tehran's side during the vicious Iran-Iraq War remained clear even in the seemingly innocuous government position.

He was allegedly acting on the orders of the fearsome IRGC Major General Qassem Suleimani by allowing Iranian jets to fly weapons to the Syrian regime during Bashar al-Assad's brutal crackdown on his own people. 

Amiri denied this, but told The New Yorker five years ago: 'I love Qassem Suleimani! ... He is my dearest friend.'

General James Mattis told the magazine that without allies like Amiri in the Iraqi government, Assad's government would have collapsed in the early years of the Syrian Civil War.

Amiri has since re-taken his role at the helm of the Badr Corps, which was previously the military wing of the Supreme Council for Islamic Revolution in Iraq (SCIRI), and which is made up of thousands of pro-Iranian former officers and soldiers who fled Saddam Hussein's reign. 

Louis J. Freech, FBI director under the Clinton administration and into the early months of Bush's administration, had been stunned by Obama allowing Amiri to step foot in the White House.

He condemned it at the time saying that Amiri, along with the IRGC, was engaged in 'countless acts of terrorism, which are acts of war against the United States.'

Freech also said he would 'love to sit down and talk to him (Amiri), show him photographs and ask him questions,' with regards to the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing, which killed 19 USAF personnel in Saudi Arabia.

Iranians were not indicted for the attack and it was blamed on Saudi Hezbollah, another pro-Iran terror group.

--------------------------

Meanwhile, the aforementioned “fearsome IRGC Major General Qassem Suleimani” was vaporized in an air strike late Thursday.

Iran’s Gen. Soleimani killed in airstrike at Baghdad airport

Gen. Qassim Soleimani, the head of Iran’s elite Quds Force, was killed in an airstrike at Baghdad’s international airport Friday, Iraqi television and three Iraqi officials said.

The strike also killed Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis, the deputy commander of Iran-backed militias known as the Popular Mobilization Forces, or PMF, the officials said.

A senior Iraqi politician and a high-level security official confirmed to the Associated Press that Soleimani and Al-Muhandis were among those killed in the attack. Two militia leaders loyal to Iran also confirmed the deaths, including an official with the Kataeb Hezbollah, which was involved in the attack on the US Embassy this week.

The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Al-Muhandis had arrived to the airport in a convoy to receive Soleimani whose plane had arrived from either Lebanon or Syria. The airstrike occurred as soon as he descended from the plane to be greeted by Al-Muhandis and his companions, killing them all.

Pentagon confirmed the report.

Hussein Obama and John Kerry were down with Soleimani - who was a key part of the Iran Nuke deal, as reported at the time:
