![]() ![]() Such an injury is perhaps why he needed to be carried by Aeneas in the early Greek versions of the story.Ĭaesar’s decision to highlight this episode from mythology to boast about his own divine ancestry makes this one of my favorite coin types. In various versions of the story he is either struck blind, killed or made lame by a thunderbolt. ![]() Of course, we know that Anchises did reveal that Aphrodite was the mother of Aeneas. The next day she reveals herself and tells him that she will give birth to Aeneas, and threatens that if he reveals to anyone that she is the boy’s mother then Anchises will come to serious harm. Aphrodite lies to Anchises and tells him she is a mortal and that Hermes has brought her to be his bride. In it, Zeus becomes angry at Aphrodite for making him lst after mortal women and so he strikes her with a desire for Anchises. The Homeric Hymn to Aphrodite has the fullest account of the story. All of the earliest sources agree (The Iliad of Homer, Theogony of Hesiod, and the Homeric Hymn to Aphrodite) that Aeneas was the son of Aphrodite (Venus) and Anchises. As we discussed above, Julius Caesar was highlighting his claimed ancestry from Aeneas. The obverse of this coin shows a portrait of Venus (Greek Aphrodite). The Obverse: Venus as the Ancestor of Julius Caesar Claiming decedent from the hero Aeneas would be honor enough for most families, but we will see below that Caesar goes even farther by claiming a divine lineage. IVLIA) claim to traced their decent from Iulus, son of Aeneas, who is mentioned in the above passage.

This scene must have been well known among the Romans because it would later be an episode in Virgil’s Aeneid. The reverse shows the Trojan hero Aeneas carrying his father Anchises (and the Palladium) out of the city of Troy as it is being sacked by the Greeks. In my opinion, these types are the most interesting of all of Caesar’s coin issues. The design references part of the mythological story that Virgil would write about in the Aeneid a few decades later. These Venus / Aeneas coins were struck at a military mint travelling with Caesar on this campaign in order to pay the soldiers. In the aftermath, Cato and Scipio committed suicide while the remaining few holdouts fled to Hispania. He fought an indecisive battle outside the city of Ruspina and then delivered a crushing defeat to the Optimates at the Battle of Thapsus on April 6th, 46 BC. A storm scattered his fleet and Caesar was forced to fight on a defensive footing for much of the campaign while he regathered his legions and waited for reinforcements. With characteristic boldness he crossed into North Africa during December of 47 BC with only 6 legions.

![]() ![]() It would be nice to see NordVPN expand its relatively meager network of 59 server locations. We didn't experience any erratic speed fluctuations you might experience with other providers. Overall, we found NordVPN's speed performance to be remarkably consistent throughout our testing. Our speeds through NordVPN's servers in Australia and Singapore - as expected - averaged the slowest at 260.81 Mbps and 305.34 Mbps, respectively. Unlike with some other VPNs, like IPVanish, NordVPN doesn't provide a real-time view of the current load on each server, so there's no way to manually connect to the server with the lightest load if you want to try to improve your VPN speeds. However, New York is a location that consistently sees heavy VPN traffic, so server load may have had a bit of a hand in the slightly slower speeds there. When connecting to New York - the closest server we tested to our physical location - NordVPN averaged 343.12 Mbps, which was somewhat surprising considering we achieved faster average results when connecting to servers much farther away in the UK (351.41 Mbps) and Europe (345.70 Mbps). Our average internet speed without the VPN clocked in at 368.07 Mbps and averaged 321.28 Mbps across our tests when connected to NordVPN servers. We tested NordVPN's speeds while connected to the VPN's servers via OpenVPN in New York, the UK, Australia, France, Germany and Singapore. That makes it one of the fastest VPNs we've tested so far, and puts it into second place behind ExpressVPN, which registered a miniscule 2% speed loss in April. However, NordVPN only slowed our regular internet speeds down by 13% in our latest round of tests. During those tests, NordVPN registered an average 53% loss in speeds - which is on par with what VPN users can generally expect to lose through a VPN connection. We conducted our latest round of NordVPN speed tests over the course of three days in July and August and were thoroughly impressed with how the VPN provider's speeds improved over previous tests conducted in 2020. ![]() ![]() Average speed loss of 13% in summer 2022 speed tests.Speed: The second-fastest VPN we've tested ![]() ![]() ![]() Using our description as an example again, our main keyword focus is “Keyword Research,” but we’ve also included “YouTube Keywords” and “Keyword Explorer.” This reinforces the content’s focus and allows it to be found in Search for related phrases and terms. Viewers may be searching for a related term that you can still rank for. In addition to your main keyword, try to find two or three other terms that are related to that primary term to help you rank higher. In the example below, both the video title and the description for “ YouTube Keyword Research – You’re Doing it WRONG!” have been optimized for the word ‘Keyword Research.’ It’s the focus of the video and a term that TubeBuddy wants to rank highly for on the platform. This is known as ‘Above the Fold,’ a fancy name for the copy visible to viewers without them having to click on the ‘Show More’ button.

![]() ![]() There are several different factors included when we talk about the graphic settings - brightness, aspect ratio, color mode, resolution, display mode, laptop power savings, global shadow quality, and many others. Graphic settings can have a huge impact on your game and setting them as pros do may have even bigger consequences to your game. If you are dedicated to your CSGO journey, you probably want only the best results for yourself, and that includes things that might help you bring the best out of your gaming talents. Once you've mastered your own gaming habits, and established the connection between your eyes, hands, mouse, and keyboard, the CSGO universe will be your playground. If you set it right and get used to playing in your own rhythm, it will be quite visible in your performances and overall satisfaction with your game. Whether you play at dpi 400 or dpi 1000, try sticking to the same mouse sensitivity once you're adjusted to a certain way since muscle memory works in a weird way. It is important to remember that no matter what sensitivity you use, you shouldn't change it too often. The majority of them use 400 dpi, and their sensitivity is set between 1.5 and 2.0. ![]() However, we can see a certain pattern that developed with the esports progression, and that most players are choosing to play within a similar sensitivity range. When it comes to sensitivity pros use, there are no strict rules or standards because after all, it is a matter of individual preferences and a choice every player makes for himself. We will try to provide you with a clear and precise insight into the pro settings and gear that pros use, and how they think when it comes to selecting what's best for their team. If you Google things like "prosettings net pro lists", "lists players top guides", or "top guides prosettings net", you will probably see 1000 different results that might confuse you due to a lot of information out there. Their lifestyle is a bit different, and their gaming routine is stretched throughout the day, which makes it tough for a regular player to match their progress and see the same gaming results they're making, but that does not mean you should stop aiming at becoming the best player you can, and use the same methods that pros use to improve their performance. Whatever type of esports you might be into, you have probably at least once in your life wanted to be a part of the team where you'd be surrounded by pros, using the same gear as them, using the same type of keyboard, monitor, mouse, crosshair and everything else related to professional gaming. ![]() ![]() ![]()

In Disney Friends you are recruited, by an insistent Tinkerbell, to be "guardian" for a cavalcade of Disney characters. In that respect, they're just like my real-life friends.

Disney Friends could have been one of those virtual pet games, intended to simply be carried aloft by the strength of its brand. I'll admit that I didn't have huge expectations for this game after all, there have been more than a few Nintendogs clones that were nothing more than simple cash-ins. It's a fair description, and it might not totally do the game justice, but if you've played Nintendo's virtual pet sales megalith you can pretty much figure out what to expect. That's the best way to describe Disney Friends. ![]() ![]() Give students their own clock, hands, and a brad to make their own clock! Lamination recommended for durability.
