![]() ![]() In order to maintain peace and manageability within the household, Peig’s father decided to send her into the service of a family he knew in Dingle: Séamas and Nell Curran and their two sons. ![]() At the age of 14, her family met with difficulties, both financially and with the new daughter-in-law. Peig’s educational bliss did not last long. Books, and thus words, became her greatest treasure. This was her doorway to learning reading and writing, both in English and in Irish ( Peig, pg 35). That very same day, she insisted that her parents allow her to start school that week, and reluctantly they obliged ( Peig, pg 15). At the age of four, Peig discovered the world of literature after visiting her friend, Cáit -Jim, who was already enrolled in school. Her love of language did not stop with the oral traditions however. Throughout her childhood, she would leap at any opportunity to listen to the stories of the old people in her nearby villages and towns ( Peig, pg 19, 33). Her father had a flare for storytelling and poetry, as did her mother, and she relished every moment she could of these tales and lyrics that her elders spun. Peig Sayers was born in 1873 to Tomás Sayers and Peig Brosnan in the parish of Dunquin on the Dingle Peninsula in County Kerry, Ireland. A natural performer, “Salt of the Earth” woman, and an oral enchantress, she quickly became dearly loved by her neighbors, countrymen, and folklorists around the world. She was often visited by students of universities and scholars wishing to record a portion of her vast collection of folklore knowledge. ![]() Peig Sayers was a legend in her own time.

![]() ![]() Here’s some nitpicky stuff (spoilers ahead): They literally have almost no fun or ever feel any happiness. 2) These character’s lives are a living nightmare so the escapism factor is a big fat zero. 1) The world building in this book is.shallow at best, laughable at worst. One of the things that made and makes HP so inviting to readers is the world building and sense of escapism that the books foster. Harry Potter is obviously a huge inspiration here. Seth cutting her hair, and then them just almost fully drowning the other one? This isn’t sexy and fun? I’m down for some bad boy stuff or like banter but like ? Attempted murder? If I were going to continue this series, I would literally never forgive these fucking assholes? I would want them dead? Comment below if you’re a mega fan and let me know if Tory and Darcy kill these evil men.) I’m also not going to be read, what, two or three full length books full of abuse for one girl boss moment? (Also spoilers here but I really don’t care: the climax of this book brought tears to my eyes for how horrible it is to these girls. No one deserves to be treated like this.), it’s a glorious moment or whatever. I feel like they’re trying to establish a low point so that once the girls are strong enough to fight back (point to note: the girls literally become resigned to the abuse about 3/4 of the way into the book, just accepting that this how they should be treated until they’re strong enough to stop it. The main characters will literally tell them: “No please don’t do that” / “No please stop” / “No please, leave me alone” and they never do! Y’all are in the reviews here saying “bully romance” this “bully romance” that, I’m not here to yuck anyone’s yum, but the actions of these characters without knowledge of the tropes of the genre are abusive and disgusting. The actions that the “”romantic interests”” take in this book are not just dubious consent, but nonconsensual in the text. Without knowing this going in, this book was shocking to me from beginning to end in the vile content that it was constantly spewing at me. ![]() There are basically no other plot elements other than the next abuse that the Vega Twins have to suffer through at the hands of these evil men. This book is literally the two main characters being violated emotionally, physically and sexually over and over for the entire run time of book. I also really like astrology, and the reviews here on GoodReads are generally good. I picked this book up because I saw the author post a tiktok comparing it to a steamy, adult Harry Potter. But we've been looking after each other for a long time and fighting back is in our blood.īefore I say anything and get into spoilers, I want to put a big *trigger warning* out there for this book: NON-CON (non-consensual acts) GALORE! No one mentioned this anywhere (not in the reviews, or in the summary, anything). So if the dragon shifters want some target practice, the werewolves want someone to hunt or the vampires fancy a snack then we have to be ready. We can't expect any help from the faculty when it comes to defending ourselves. We never knew we had a birthright to live up to but now that we do, we intend to claim our throne. They've only got until the lunar eclipse to force us out and they'll stop at nothing to succeed. Our fates are intertwined, but they want us gone. It doesn't help that they're the most dangerous beasts in the Academy. ![]() And it hasn't made us any friends so far.Īs the rarest Elementals ever known, we're already a threat to the four celestial heirs the popular, vindictive bullies who happen to be some of the hottest guys we've ever seen. No one has ever harnessed all four of them, until we arrived. Which means we're totally unprepared for the ruthless world of Fae. As twins born in the month of Gemini, we're a rare breed even in this academy of supernatural a-holes.Ĭhangelings were outlawed hundreds of years ago but I guess our birth parents didn't get the memo. If you're one of the Fae, elemental magic is in your blood. You have been selected to attend Zodiac Academy, where your star sign defines your destiny. ![]() ![]() ![]() There were various side effects that could affect even the most experienced of melders. While a highly effective method of getting information or sharing an unexplainable experience, the Vulcan mind meld was an often dangerous technique. The bounty hunter race Hazari were also resistant to the mind meld. This was shown most notably during the episode “The Maquis, Part II” from Deep Space 9, where Cardassian Gul Dukat ( instigator of one of the most tragic moments in Star Trek history) is being interrogated, and blocks an attempted meld from the Vulcan Sakonna. Some races, such as the Cardassians, are highly resistant to the mind meld, being very good at shielding their thoughts from the technique. An example of this is seen in the Kelvin timeline, where Spock accident leaked through some emotions while mind melding with Kirk. Often the shield is penetrated somewhat during the meld and emotions, memories, and thoughts are often leaked through into the mind of the subject. Shielding is difficult, especially when trying to concentrate on a successful meld without any of the sometimes unfortunate side effects. On the other hand, when using the technique to mind meld with others to gain information (as is often done during the series), it’s possible for the initiator to put up a mental shield over their own mind, protecting them from being probed by the mind of those who they are probing. When the meld is used within the private life of two Vulcans, the point is to achieve one consciousness and become one mind. “My mind to your mind, my thoughts to your thoughts.”ĭespite this being the iconic look for the meld, it’s not always required, but the physical contact enhances the telepathic effectiveness considerably. It was even possible for some other telepathically capable species to learn the mind meld themselves - most notably an android, as shown in the first season of Picard. Despite this, the technique has been used countless times over the various series on other humanoid species. The meld was most often used between Vulcans as a private exchange, not to be shared or used on non-Vulcans. The aim of a successful meld is that the two separate minds become one, sharing one merged consciousness. The mind meld is a telepathic link formed between two individuals, allowing for the exchange of thoughts and sometimes feelings, often at a deeply intimate level. RELATED: Star Trek's Warp Drive Technology, Explained The Vulcan mind meld is one such example, but what exactly is it, and how does it work? While the Talosians and the Melkotiams utilized their telepathic abilities for destructive purposes, weaponizing it to create powerful illusions, others used it for peace or at least for less nefarious purposes. Each race presents a unique and interesting variation on telepathy, and different ways in which they use it to communicate with both one another and different races. Most notable using these are the strikingly humanoid Batazoids, the Talosians, and of course the Vulcans. ![]() Within the expansive Star Trek universe created in the late 1960s by Gene Roddenberry, there are numerous various alien races capable, in various degrees, of telepathic communication. ![]() ![]() ![]() You may get a good sense for the raw data by using Wireshark to capture the packets and comparing them to an actual TN5250 display showing the same transaction. There is no stdout per se the human readable display panel requires rendering by the client. Likewise, the client does not send back the full display panel including constants and formatting instead, it sends back the input-capable fields. The client needs to understand these formatting instructions in order to properly render the data coming from the host. This, as opposed to a character-by-character transmission.Īs a very high level overview, the 5250 protocol describes how to format the display (start/stop field, field attributes like underline and colour) as well as what function keys are acceptable. This family is block mode, meaning the host sends a full display panel out to the client in one transmission, and the client sends a full display panel back to the host in one single transmission. It is intended for the IBM midrange family of 'dumb' green screen terminals. TN5250 is the IBM protocol that rides on top of Telnet. The TN5250J project is a working TN5250 client written in Java. The solution I really want is a way to capture the stdout from the telnet session, but apparently terminal programs like Telnet don't write to stdout. socket buffer is probably empty, wait and try again If (ex.SocketErrorCode = SocketError.WouldBlock ||Įx.SocketErrorCode = SocketError.IOPending ||Įx.SocketErrorCode = SocketError.NoBufferSpaceAvailable) return Encoding.GetEncoding("IBM500").GetString(buf, 0, buffer.Length) byte buf = Encoding.Convert(Encoding.GetEncoding("iso-8859-1"), Encoding.UTF8, buffer) Return Encoding.GetEncoding(37).GetString(buffer, 0, buffer.Length) Received = socket.Receive(buffer, offset received, size - received, SocketFlags.None) These two changes work together to keep the 5250 session from dropping, although if you do not use iSeries Access (you use Mochasoft's TN5250 instead) and you only used RDi/RDp then the second modification is not necessary and you're finished. WS files created by iSeries Access must be modified. If (Environment.TickCount > startTickCount timeout) You also have to make a second adjustment-the. Int received = 0 // how many bytes is already received ![]() Int startTickCount = Environment.TickCount Public static string Receive(Socket socket, byte buffer, int offset, int size, int timeout) TextBox1.Text = Receive(SocketClient, buffer, 0, buffer.Length, 10000).Trim() "\r\n" ![]() remoteEndPoint = new (IPAddress.Parse("address"), 23) Socket SocketClient = new Socket(AddressFamily.InterNetwork, SocketType.Stream, ProtocolType.Tcp) Here's some "working" code I found elsewhere. It must not involve buying a third-party library. I haven't been able to match it against any of the encodings listed here how can I convert this text to something I can use? UTF8, ASCII anything in a Windows-friendly text format will do. I have a connection to IBM i (an AS/400) that communicates over a protocol/encoding called TN5250. ![]() ![]() Other Name LookalikesĬontinuing into the remainder of August 2022, more celebrities and internet personalities received iterations made about them.

There are actually two variants of the CALS image format Oracle interMedia supports CALS Type I. CALSĬALS is an image format developed by the Computer Aided Acquisition and Logistics Support office of the United States government for document interchange. It is worth noting that BMPF is unusual in that the ordinary scanline order for this format is bottom-up, which Oracle interMedia calls INVERSE.
