![]() Diogenes Laertius, notes Timon of Phlius observes that there Plato "a big fish, but a sweet-voiced speaker, musical in prose as the cicada who, perched on the trees of Hecademus, pours forth a strain as delicate as a lily". ![]() According to Diogenes Laertius, Dion, "bought for Plato the little garden which is in the Academy". As noted by Plutarch: "For this reason he was honored during his life by the Tyndaridae, and often afterwards when the Lacedaemonians invaded Attica and laid waste all the country round about, they spared the Academy, for the sake of Academus." Plato Īcademe was the site of Plato's Academy and within its groves, he gave his lectures. Also for this reason Tyndareus (a Spartan king and the father of Castor and step father of Helen) showed Academus much gratitude. Academus spared the city by telling them where she was hidden, at Aphidnae. Due to this outrage, her twin brothers Castor and Pollux invaded Attica to liberate their sister and threatened to destroy Athens. Plutarch, in his biography of the Athenian king Theseus (the slayer of the Minotaur), writes that, after being widowed and reaching age 50, the king abducted the 12-year-old child Helen (long before she married Menelaus, met Paris and was the cause of the Trojan War). Its sacred grove furnished the olive oil that was distributed as prizes in the Panathenaic Games and contained in the finely decorated Panathenaic amphorae presented to the winners. Īccording to Plutarch, Cimon converted this, "waterless and arid spot into a well watered grove, which he provided with clear running-tracks and shady walks". It had also earlier been called Ecademia (Ἑκαδημία). ![]() By classical times the name of the place had evolved into the Akademeia. Academus, the place lies on the Cephissus, six stadia from Athens.Īcademus, the site was sacred to Athena, the goddess of wisdom, and other immortals it had since the Bronze Age sheltered her religious cult, which was perhaps associated with the hero-gods, the Dioskouroi ( Castor and Polydeukes), and for the hero Akademos. ![]() Academus or Akademos ( / ˌ æ k ə ˈ d iː m ə s/ Ancient Greek: Ἀκάδημος), also Hekademos or Hecademus (Ἑκάδημος) was an Attic hero in Greek mythology. ![]() ![]() ![]() purchased a new keycode), didn't want to but the wife hates change.

Booker only comes into possession of one when things go wrong at one horrific, prescribed moment. Skylines connect parts of the city like railways, and only its starched police force is authorized to carry the skyhooks that allow more immediate, illicit travel along them. Gameplay mechanics feel more rooted because they're clearly a part of everyday life to the Columbia that Irrational presents. Vigors are introduced like a quack remedy at a sideshow Columbia begins BioShock Infinite in the midst of its Gilded Age, with disconcertingly shiny, happy people milling around. Most shooters and first person games are content to send you into the ruins of a society in some kind of bizarre archaeological expedition. This might be in part because Columbia is still functional when you arrive - it isn't a wasteland reminder of a golden society. It's also inextricably tied to every other part of the game. The world that Irrational has built is one of BioShock Infinite's greatest assets. But even as Irrational improved the game underneath, it's the ideas presented and questions Infinite asked that left me quiet when the game was finished. ![]() With BioShock Infinite, Irrational has created an inspired, asymmetric action game full of huge environments, smart enemies, and more tools than I could manage to play with one time through. But BioShock Infinite suggests Irrational isn't content to be known for art over gameplay a second time - or at least to let one serve as a crutch for the other. Still, BioShock has held up as a game that capitalized on the strengths of the medium that had something serious to say, and questions to ask. The last third of the game and its climactic final boss battle have seen indifference and derision. You'd almost think it was hard to follow up the original game, which has been lauded and held up as one of the few conscious, authorial pieces of mainstream art that the video game industry has produced this millennium.īioShock's mechanics and general game design were often more inspired than they were functional. Even if you've tried to maintain a total media blackout on BioShock Infinite, it would have been difficult to remain ignorant of the extended, torturous development cycle it's been through, or the number of major creative personnel who have come and gone during that time. ![]() ![]() ![]() Tautulli is a 3rd party application that you can run alongside your Plex Media Server to monitor activity and track various statistics.

Costa Cruises (2019–2023) Ĭarnival Venezia as Costa Venezia in Corfu, 2019 Fincantieri officially delivered Costa Venezia to Costa Cruises on 28 February 2019 in Monfalcone. ![]() She completed her first round of sea trials on 27 December 2018 and began the second round on 18 January 2019. On 22 June 2018, Costa Venezia was floated out from the shipyard and additional details were also announced about the ship's interior design and facilities, revealing that many of the key features of the ship would be inspired by Venetian landmarks and their architecture, including the ship's main atrium, theatre, and restaurants. The announcement came at the coin ceremony for the ship at the Fincantieri shipyard in Monfalcone. On 1 November 2017, Costa Cruises announced that the first of the two vessels built specifically for the Chinese market would be named Costa Venezia. The ships, comprising a new class of vessels in Costa's fleet, were planned to carry an interior design that would focus on Costa's Italian traditions for their Asian clientele to experience. The contracts were finalized in April 2016, which were built off of a memorandum agreed upon between the cruise line and the shipyard earlier in 2015. In January 2016, Carnival Corporation announced that they had made firm their commitment with Fincantieri to expand Costa Cruises' Asia fleet, with two vessels at 135,500 gross tonnage (GT) each, with a guest capacity of approximately 4,200 passengers.

The new concept was designed to integrate Costa Venezia and sister ship Costa Firenze into Carnival in a bid to boost domestic American capacity after the cruise line had sold numerous older vessels while Costa contended with operational challenges in its core markets. In 2023, amid a corporate fleet reshuffling in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the industry, Costa Venezia was transferred to Carnival under a new sub-brand named "Costa as Carnival" operating as "Carnival Fun Italian Style". At 135,225 gross tonnage (GT) and with a capacity of 4,208 passengers, she briefly became the largest ship in the Costa fleet until the debut of Costa Smeralda in late 2019. Originally intended to serve the Chinese market, she debuted as Costa Venezia for sister brand Costa Cruises in Shanghai on. 62,400 kW (83,700 hp) (Total power) Ĭarnival Venezia is a Vista-class cruise ship operated by Carnival Cruise Line, a subsidiary of Carnival Corporation & plc. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Please note that a wedding dress, even if made to your size, may need to be altered with an expert seamstress.
