![]() ![]() The case is still made of stainless steel, alternating polished and brushed surfaces and measuring a quite large 42mm. However, with its date window at 4:30, the day window at 10 and the month window at 2, the Zenith El Primero 410 looks really good, especially because none of these indications step over the chronograph sub-counters – except the moon-phase that is inserted discreetly in the hour-counter at 6. However, it’s a rather simple system, as it doesn’t take into account the month with 30-31 days, thus being far more simple than an annual calendar or a perpetual calendar. On this watch, we’re in front of what we call a triple calendar or a full calendar, meaning a mechanism that displays the date, the day of the week and the month. The Zenith El Primero 410 remains untouched – something we won’t blame Zenith for – with this faithful and legible layout for the calendar. The new blue dial Zenith El Primero 410 Triple Calendar and MoonPhaseĪfter a slate grey limited edition in 2013 (with two stars on the dial besides the day and month apertures), followed in 2014 by a non-limited edition, the Zenith El Primero 410 (without the stars on the dial, with a white dial and available in steel and in gold), it’s now a new 1975-piece limited edition that Zenith introduces at Baselworld 2015, with a cool blue dial. An example of this watch – one of an estimated production of 25 pieces – had been sold in May 2012 by Christies for 37.500 Swiss Francs – of course bought by Zenith themselves. Before Zenith launched the Limited Edition of the Zenith El Primero 410 in 2013, they found back one of the very few Triple Calendar El Primero available on the market, then justifying the introduction of the new Zenith El Primero 410. What about the triple calendar 410 edition? In fact, it’s also a vintage-inspired watch – a very rare one – but this layout existed as a prototype. Since its introduction in 1969, the movement is still (mor or less) the same and shares the same architecture and the same specifications. It’s a so-called high-beat movement – that is supposed to be more precise. What’s specific though? Compared to the 2 competitors, it was the only and still is one of the few chronograph movements to come with an escapement that vibrates at 36,000 vibrations per hour, or 10 ticks per second. It is an integrated movement (that is also the case of the Seiko the Calibre 11 is a modular movement) with a central rotor (as Seiko, the Calibre 11 has a micro-rotor) with a column wheel (as Seiko, the Calibre 11 has a cam mechanism). Compared to the 2 others, it has some unique and very likable features. Even experts do not entirely agree on who was first and there are quite a few factors that count: developing, patenting, introducing, producing, delivering… whatever, the Zenith El Primero was and still is one of the greatest chronograph movements ever made. It was at that time the first – or to be precise and not to engage long fights between collectors – one of the first automatic chronograph movement – together with the Heuer-Breitling-Hamilton-Buren Calibre 11 and the Seiko 6139. The Zenith El Primero movement was revealed in 1969. In addition, because we’re proper watch nerds here at Monochrome, we found something cool to match with this watch: matching solid silver hand-made cufflinks depicting the El Primero. This timepiece is called the Zenith El Primero 410 and for Baselworld 2015, it comes in a new limited edition with a cool blue dial (yes, blue is again is very popular this year). And when it comes with a triple calendar and a moon phase, displayed in a ‘vintage’ style and legible layout, it become an even better watch. The Zenith El Primero is a very nice watch. ![]() ![]() ![]() It’s possible that their distribution rights could be renewed someday, but it definitely won’t be anytime soon. It’s a bizarre concept, but it actually was well-received back when it launched in 2013. This isn’t the only game from Telltale that has been delisted, as Wallace & Gromit’s Grand Adventures and Law & Order: Legacies were also taken down.įor those unfamiliar with the game, Poker Night 2 featured characters from various franchises that all come together to play poker. The support page details how those players can access the game, so head on over there if you’re interested. The good news for those who own the game is that they’ll still be able to access it, as this move does not take it away from game owners. In announcement on the game’s support page, the company said “Poker Night 2 has been withdrawn from sale on digital platforms due to the expiration of our digital distribution agreement.We currently do not have any plans to renew this agreement.” There are currently 760 games on this list, excluding 22 repeats. In July of 2022 PlayStation Plus became PlayStation Essential. The reason for this is that distribution agreements have expired, and it seems like the company isn’t interested in fixing that. This is the list of monthly games available to PlayStation Plus/ PlayStation Essential members in North America. I never bothered with any of that, myself, so I couldn’t possibly comment on those items.It looks like those who enjoyed playing Telltale Games’ Poker Night 2 will be able to do so no more, as the game has been removed from digital stores. One of the big draws at the time was winning items that could be transferred across to Team Fortress 2. As you win poker games, you’ll be able to unlock different card styles and table mats. The atmosphere of the Inventory is like that of a Prohibition-era pub, with dim lighting and a classy aesthetic. I enjoyed this game because I found it relaxing. I would recommend this game to people who are interested in poker and want to practice their skills – knowing how to recognise a good hand, when to bet, when to call, the basics of reading people (although people are much more complex than this lot).

The other players will try to bluff you and goad you into betting. When playing against AI, that aspect of poker is a lot less complex. You’re constantly watching the other players to see if they give away anything about their cards – are they bluffing? You also have to make sure you don’t reveal anything about your own hand. ![]() The thing about poker is that it isn’t a game about having the best hand of cards – you don’t play the cards, you play people. You can see your two hole cards, and you’ll be able to see the community cards on the table as they are revealed. You have buttons for fold, call and raise (the plus and minus buttons next to Raise can be a little fiddly). There’s a setting to decrease the frequency of these conversations, so you’ll probably end up doing this after a few hours of play.įunctionally, the interface works well – I’ve certainly seen clunkier interfaces in other poker games. Unfortunately, you will start hearing a lot of the same lines over and over again. These characters are well chosen, and they each bring something different to the group. The players will banter amongst themselves, making references to their own franchises and commenting on each other’s. Reginald van Winslow from Tales of Monkey Island performs the role of the host, introducing you to the game and providing commentary on the poker games as they unfold, along with raising the blinds from time to time. You’ll play Texas Hold ‘em poker against Max from the Sam & Max series, Strong Bad from his online cartoon (and TellTale adventure series), The Heavy from Team Fortress, and Tycho from Penny Arcade. Poker Night at the Inventory is a “celebrity” poker game from TellTale Games, featuring characters from their own franchises and elsewhere. An idea along the lines of single-player poker.

No one likes losing money when betting that much is obvious. If you’re such a skilled long-odds bettor, a 1-in-10,000 occurrence such as this would arguably require stakes of 0.1 units for a 100-unit bankroll to reduce the size of MDD to tolerable levels. For betting odds of 10, for example, whilst the expected MDD is 84 units, a quarter of the Monte Carlo iterations were 100 or more, with one of them as high as 302. The distributions of possible outcomes are hugely variable. The second chart shows the five models scenarios for variable odds with a yield of 10%. Averages are informative, but the shape of the probability distributions gives us useful additional information about the range of expectations under scenarios of good and bad luck. And in my 10,000 iterations nearly a third of them were 25 units or more, the highest being 73.

![]() ![]() It’s interesting to see the “ancestor” of the type of music that would come to be associated with the region, like Los Agaves – I tried to add some international spice with the next few picks, starting with this fellow is apparently quite popular in his homeland of argentina. I love her style, not quite danceable, but it’s definitely got some movement to it. – Dinah Washington is a name I knew, but I hadn’t actually listened to her before today. YOU’RE NOBODY ‘TILL SOMEBODY LOVES YOU-DINAH WASHINGTON I’m happy to now share of Vegas’ most famous crooners in this format – One of the first vintage albums I ever picked up was a 65 copy of “Sinatra: A Man and His Music”, and it’s pretty cool.

For the rest of the decade, artists like James Brown would propel the genre forward and make some of the most danceable, and interesting music available. – The genre of soul is another genre that was coming into its prime in the early 60s. While doing research for this playlist and listening to other songs that were charting in 1962, I really came to appreciate just how much The Beatles saved rock n’ roll. But “Love Me Do” from The Beatles’ 1963 album Please Please Me is another song that stands out among the rest of the songs in this playlist. This one is a prime example of bubblegum-pop that is just great – so it’s no surprise that it was charting at its release. – The Shirelles were masters of harmonious love songs.

Previous modifications to the 2020-21 Rackham grading policy announced in August, which included the notation of NRC for grades C+ to E, will remain in place. These changes will provide Rackham students with a one-time option to change any or all of their letter grades of A+ through B- to S for Satisfactory. The Rackham Graduate School also is adopting additional modifications to grading. These implications could include impacts on financial aid and progress toward their degree.

Under the revised policy, undergraduate students will have the option to change any or all of their letter grades of A through C to Pass. “The intention of the modification is to give students additional flexibility to successfully complete the semester and remain on a path toward their goals.” “We recognize the enormous stress that comes with balancing courses, the realities of COVID-19, and the myriad other events that have shaped the term,” Collins said.
