![]() Whether you’re playing a game of fetch in the fenced-in yard or going for long walks along the beach, you’ll love staying in one of these pet-friendly homes in Virginia Beach. We’ve scoured Airbnb for the best pet-friendly vacation rentals that welcome pets and their owners with open arms. Virginia Beach is a popular destination for couples, families, and people traveling with their furry best friends. And you can guarantee that you’ll get all three when you vacation in Virginia Beach! "We're still going to probably be around 1,000 J-1 students that are coming in to help supplement the staff that we have and take care of the shortage of the staff," Zirkle said.There’s nothing like sand, surf, and sun to get you in the mood for a relaxing vacation. The J-1 classification (exchange visitors) is authorized for those who intend to participate in an approved program for the purpose of teaching, instructing or lecturing, studying, observing, conducting research, consulting, demonstrating special skills, receiving training, or to receive graduate medical education or training. This is also the first year since the pandemic started that J-1 students will be back working. "The season is lengthening, which is really cool." "We have noticed a big difference in the time frame that people are coming down," she said. The opportunity to have out-of-town visitors is also lasting longer than three and a half months. Keep in mind when you're doing Airbnb rentals, you're supporting those small family businesses," she said. "I know sometimes locals are like, 'Oh, the tourists are coming in town,' but for so many people down here at the beach, it's such an opportunity. LeAnne was born and raised in Virginia Beach, and said Oceanfront bookings have been a big financial boost for her family. "Our Airbnb notifications started buzzing months ago," said Virginia Beach resident LeAnne.

The data collected by ODU reflects that as it found "the Average Daily Rate (ADR) paid for hotel rooms through April stood at $108, a 1.3% increase compared to 2019. Everything's increased in price," Zirkle said. "We've seen the cost of everything, from the linens in the room to the housekeeper those cleaning your room. Prices for nearly everything are also up across the board. Hampton Roads’ hotel industry, except for the Miami and Tampa markets, also continues to outperform the top 25 markets in the nation in terms of growth in Hotel Revenue and Revenue per Available Room." The report found "newly released monthly data from STR, a global firm that provides insights into the hospitality industry, show that hotel revenues in Hampton Roads through the first four months of 2022 are 19% higher than the levels observed in the first four months of 2019. Zirkle said tourism is the reason rooms throughout the Resort City are already booked for the summer.Įach year Old Dominion University's Dragas Center for Economic Analysis and Policy looks at the Hotel Industry in Virginia and Hampton Roads. When you see these folks come in that have never seen the ocean, have never walked in the ocean, have never tasted the saltwater on their lips - that's just really, really nice to see," said John Zirkle, the President of the Virginia Beach Hotel Association and General Manager for the DoubleTree by Hilton. "We take for granted because it's, you know, right here. ![]() People are looking to get away for the summer, and they're heading to Virginia Beach, which is big news for local hotels and Airbnb rentals. ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() It may seem counterintuitive to base an assignment about source accuracy on a fictional text-and fictional informational texts within it-but the key is the thinking process behind discerning source limitations and strengths. A useful and suitably complex exercise asks students to evaluate sources within the wizarding world of Harry Potter, particularly focused on the topic of Albus Dumbledore’s uncertain past. Pop culture approaches to source materials can make this rather workmanlike topic more immediately interesting to students. Students will find even more valuable the knowledge of how to use inherently biased sources effectively as evidence. Given this crowded yet flawed information landscape, evaluation of the quality and content of source materials has become a more essential skill than ever before. Although today we find ourselves inundated with information, most of our sources are not vetted by experts, are partisan (with varying degrees of openness about their bias), or have entertainment instead of accuracy as the top priority. Most humanities and social science teachers spend at least some class time discussing how to regard documents and other evidence with a critical eye. But any educated person must have these abilities. For historians, the ability to analyze sources of information about the past and to use them appropriately has always been a central requirement of the discipline. Despite the topic’s relevance, students are likely to approach the material with either an indifferent shrug or rolling eyes, chin in palm. Teaching students to evaluate sources for quality and usable content remains a constant challenge at almost every educational level. With cries of “fake news” at every turn, the urgency for teaching critical reading skills has mounted in recent months. Keywords: Critical Thinking, Historical Consciousness, Source Evaluation, Analysis, Evidence, Harry Potter, Albus Dumbledore, Pedagogy As a result, this exercise allows students to develop their critical thinking skills and their sense of historical consciousness. When muggle students sort through these fictional accounts from the wizarding world, they nevertheless gain experience needed for navigating real-world sources to determine their own future paths. Only by sorting through these contradictory accounts can Harry, Ron, and Hermione defeat the evil Lord Voldemort. Conflicting views of Albus Dumbledore in The Daily Prophet, Rita Skeeter’s book The Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore, and Aberforth Dumbledore’s eyewitness testimony about his brother, raise questions about the Hogwarts headmaster’s motivations and moral integrity. Throughout the series, but particularly in the last book, characters must weigh evidence and gain important information from biased sources to help them determine their future actions. The Harry Potter stories intrinsically value the past, though Rowling is not naïve about the difficulty of understanding the truth from flawed sources. Rowling presents in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows to understand Albus Dumbledore’s troubled youth can provide students the analytic skills they need through an entertaining exercise. Using the fictional informational sources J.K. Most humanities and social science teachers spend at least some class time helping students develop a critical eye for documentary evidence. ![]() Teaching students to evaluate sources-for accuracy, bias, and agenda-and to use them effectively despite their weaknesses, presents a challenge, and yet is essential in today’s crowded media landscape. ![]() ![]() ![]() Keep me posted if you need more help in accomplishing your other tasks in the program.

![]() ![]() They range from the 1st tiny ship class, destroyers, up to the very large and rather menacing Carrier and Battleship class. The game features literally dozens if not almost a hundred ships, including more on the workshop. Perhaps with the sound muted and subtitles turned off.įreeroam is probably the best part to review in terms of gameplay, as it is pretty feature rich, and the devs have a “wishlist” of features they are waiting to implement shortly after bugs have been squished, and balancing has been done. ![]() I’d probably recommend new players open up the campaign and do the first few missions. All that being said, the campaign does now feature a good tutorial. ![]() It would probably have been wiser to skip the story mode until they had enough money for a better writer and voice actors. After playing the freeroam for 26 hours, I hardly think the campaign really needs to exist, as freeroam is where all the development time has clearly been spent. Most of the SPG2 forum strongly recommends most new and experienced players stick to the freeroam, as that’s where all of the content and gameplay features are. Yes, that just happened, and yes, that was actually written and is now immortalised into digital gaming forever. Most of the community is familiar with the following scene: The missions are relatively varied, and it’s relatively difficult to take any of the storyline seriously because it’s voiced and written so poorly. With Freelancer in mind, the campaign is largely based around obtaining main missions, go here, do this, rinse and repeat. Without being too negative about the quality of a story and dialogue in an Early Access title, the script writing is quite frankly awful, and most of the voice actors are equally bad. A lot of the time they mention Freelancer as a main inspiration for the game and campaign, and I can see why. The general story and campaign was largely ham-fisted into the game during the final months of development, with most players basing their entire experiences on the freeroam gameplay, which is also where the devs recommend people spend most of their time. Largely based where the original left off, you take command of the previous game’s primary character’s son. Very little in terms of PR was done with the Early Access title, with only Steam and the forums being their primary source of advertisement. The developers are part of Intercorona, who were undoubtedly known for the original Starpoint Gemini. The game is developed by Little Green Men Games, and published by Iceberg Interactive. The game is also extremely close to being a full blow 4X game, however on release (current version 1.005), there are some relatively incomplete features that the devs are still implementing. Starpoint Gemini II is primarily a space simulator game, with a small portion of RPG elements, that include activated skills and also a perk system, that applies similarly to RPG talent trees.

This means they can be destroyed on the floor, platforms, or with a shadow dash. Orbs are vulnerable once they've been active for at least. Because the Absolute Radiance does not move during the majority of this attack, there are several opportunities to damage her throughout the attack. ![]() Orbs can last long enough to still exist during another attack from Absolute Radiance. Due to the random patterns of the bursts, it is possible to heal throughout this attack but only if the pattern does not necessitate movement.Ībsolute Radiance uses this attack in Phases 1, 2, and 4. Healing without Charms is safest during the last burst. Longer Spells and other attacks are safer to use during the last burst. Absolute Radiance can be damaged throughout this attack using any attacks that are as quick to execute as a Nail attack. Absolute Radiance deals no contact damage.Ībsolute Radiance uses this attack in Phases 1, 2, and 4. She does not teleport during her Beam Burst, Sword Burst, or Orb attacks. Throughout the fight, except in Phases 3 and 5 and a few exceptions, Absolute Radiance teleports around the arena every 2 to 2.5 seconds. ![]() In general, panic heals are more costly here due to Absolute Radiance's double damage and attack frequency.

Orb Barrage: The only new attack features slower orbs but are constantly fired every 2 seconds.The beams also come every 1 second with each beam starting just as the last one ends. Big Beam: The beam is slightly thinner and becomes dangerous within half a second.Spike Floor: Absolute Radiance's spikes spawn every 6 to 8 seconds in Phase 2.Absolute Radiance summons these about 1 second apart. Orb: The colour and visuals of the orbs are more vibrant, they travel twice as fast, and take much tighter turns to home in onto the Knight.Wall of Light: Absolute Radiance's wall travels faster.Sword speed and total sets are the same as the Radiance's during Phase 4. Sword Wall: Absolute Radiance's swords travel faster but only in 3 sets in Phases 1 and 2. ![]() Sword fall speed is the same in Phase 3 but the interval is slightly shorter.

It is, however, thoroughly captivating, and more satisfying than many a mystery I’ve read. This tale is narrated in turns by a group of former seventies rock stars/bandmates via an anonymous-to-the-last page-interviewer, and it isn’t crime fiction by any stretch. It was a beautiful, meandering character study leading up to a startling twist that truly caught me off guard.ĭaisy Jones and The Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid I resisted it longer than I should have, simply because so many novels don’t live up to their hype. While this book contains a provocative murder mystery and courtroom procedural, it’s also part romance, part character study, part nature study…a true genre mash-up. This is one of those novels that you’ll never imagine will conclude the way it does-and upon reflection, you’ll realize it was inevitable. Emerging as a complex character whose strengths and weaknesses are at times exquisitely indistinguishable. While Camille breaks your heart, she’s hardly a pitiful victim. Not only is this book a true page-turner with an intricate story and well-rounded cast of characters, but it combines a couple of my favorite plot points-amnesia and missing persons-and leads to an exquisite eleventh-hour shocker.Īlison Gaylin’s latest thriller is a taut, harrowing tale of grief and revenge, with a brittle-but-not-broken heroine who’s lost her only child to a killer who escapes punishment. Burke is a master at plotting and pacing, and doesn’t disappoint here. Newly released, Find Me centers around two strong heroines, friends whose deep bond goes back to an unsolved mystery in their past. If you’re a fellow fan of final hand grenades, here are some other novels you’ll enjoy, from brand new releases to decades-old gems: When I set out to write my latest, The Other Family, I knew what would happen on the shocking last page long before I’d even figured out how the story would open. They want to be kept guessing, from the first page of the first chapter to the last page of the last.Ī decade ago, Bookreporter’s senior reviewer Joe Hartlaub wrote about my novel Sleepwalker: “There is a revelation at the end that you will never see coming and that goes off like a hand grenade lobbed into a small room on a quiet summer afternoon.” Ah, the bar was set, and those words rang in my head as a challenge. They don’t want to figure things out early on and have the story unfold in a predictable manner. Now, three decades into my own career publishing twisty psychological suspense novels, I’m grateful to the authors who inspired me and to my own loyal and smart readership. Browsing library shelves, I gravitated toward modern-day suspense over past-era cozies, but checked out Agatha Christie’s The Murder of Roger Ackroyd more than once, a sucker for the surprise ending long after I knew what was coming.Įven then, I was studying craft as much as I was being entertained, an aspiring writer in training.
