The dense, ultra-tight prose of G1 Gary has been replaced with verbose, almost flowery Gary and the transition is admittedly not a flattering one. The boxed text is an unnecessary hindrance and your constant foe throughout the module. A room alters if one’s attention is diverted, a room changes into a caterpillar or shrinks to crush characters to death if they do not act swiftly. The tiny items snatched from the shaft now provide the only defence. The shrinking potion in EX1 does provide access to areas that are otherwise inaccessible, and equipment does not shrink so characters will be effectively naked. Some of the Alice in Wonderland mutable-reality bits are implemented fairly effectively (one would say more effectively then in RaPL). The true nature of the place they are in will sink in over time, but once it does so, there are plenty of allusions, references and the odd nod to meta-gaming, in this EX1 retains its Gygaxian trappings. Clever players carrying a light source may elect to grab from them several items, the rest gets to suck it. Gygax goes so far as to recommend you place this thing inside the covers of another module, surely a sleight that would not fool hardened 9 th level veterans? You fall through a shaft, wherein tiny alcoves with model furniture are revealed. The beginning is interesting and effective because the nature of the situation is not immediately revealed to the players. Dungeonland is an entertaining if uneven hodgepodge of Alice-in-Wonderlandic? Set-pieces that provide a diverting backdrop against which your players may fool around and possibly get horribly murdered before they are dragged back into the cold stone halls of death that we have come to know and love. Instead we see a Gygax out of his element, indulging in the decadent evocation *gasp* of wonder and imagination for his own sake, as well as developing a habit of rail-roading and boxed text that would come to rule over the hobby with iron-sheathed fists. Gone is the meticulous trapmaker, whose intricate death-machines are lovingly coated in realistic wallpaper and painted with shapes that excite the imagination. The characters fall through a shaft in the floor and arrive in the bizarre Dungeonland, an otherworldly realm with all manner of queer inhabitants.ĮX1 is odd because in writing it Gygax deviates from some of his own principles. The result is arguably Gygax’s most fantastical module there is little attempt at verisimilitude. The context speaks volumes Gygax takes great pains to note that this module diverges from what he would regard as a normal adventure and is mostly meant as a ‘light-hearted change of pace’ from the normal business of crawling dungeons and counting the hexes on the map, Artpunk wankers take note. Gary Gygax introduced such a venture in his original Castle Greyhawk campaign, and later published these works as two separate modules. It turns out some hack fraud had already written a module for Red & Pleasant Land before it even came out! A little known OSR author by the name of E.

The amount of Benadryl you should give your dog is directly proportional to the dog’s weight give him 1mg of Benadryl per pound of body weight three times a day until he gets better. This will be very detrimental to the dog’s health. So How Much Benadryl Can I Give My Dog? It is very easy to over dose a dog on Benadryl if you do not know the exact dose to give him. If the reaction is not severe, Benadryl can help relieve the itching, reduce the swelling while reducing any allergic reaction. But How Much Benadryl Can I Give My Dog? How Much Benadryl Can I Give My Dog?īenadryl is the best antihistamine to help cure your dog after being stung. If the dog can swallow then give him a dose of Benadryl while taking him to the veterinarian, this will help a lot with the allergic reaction. If this happens then you should take him to the veterinary hospital immediately. The symptoms of anaphylactic shock include fainting, rapid breathing, difficulty breathing, vomiting, diarrhea, wheezing, pale gums, weakness, trembling, low temperature, fever and low body temperature. Anaphylactic shock is characterized by the blood circulation shutting down and if not monitored it can kill a dog within ten minutes. Some dogs may have a severe reaction to the stinger these dogs go into anaphylactic shock and develop a severe swelling. Offer the dog some ice cubes or a bowl full of ice water and some wet food. Treating a dog bee sting inside the mouth is very hard as the dog’s mouth is hurting and he will not allow you to poke something in its mouth in the name of removing the stinger. Place a piece of wash cloth on the affected area followed by the pack of ice and if the dog does not protest you can leave the ice on its skin for up to 30 minutes. To reduce the swelling and soothe the affected area, you can use an icepack. The symptoms of a dog bee sting with a slight reaction to a stinger include a swelling and reddening of the affected area plus itching. Locating a stinger can be very difficult, as they are translucent, but you should be able to locate the exact area where the dog was stung as it is characterized by a swelling and then scrap it off using a blunt object or your finger nails to remove it. Mostly a dog gets stung on their head faces or inside their mouth, the first step to treating a bee sting is locating the stinger and removing it. Has your dog been stung by a bee? Contact our Plains vets right away to make sure your pup is healthy.Dogs react differently to bee sting some may have a slight reaction while others have a severe reaction. To lessen swelling and inflammation, you can apply a damp towel to the sting site in the interim. If you can see the sting site and easily remove the stinger with tweezers, do so immediately to ease pain and prevent the venom from the stinger from spreading.Īfter a sting, the majority of dogs should start to feel better within a few hours and should be back to normal within a day or two. In this case, your veterinarian may have already recommended over-the-counter medications (antihistamines such as Benadryl) but be sure to use the recommended dosage for your dog.įor most dogs, the area of the sting will be sensitive and puffy. If 30 minutes to an hour have passed and your dog is showing no signs of an allergic reaction, you can focus on making them more comfortable. How to Comfort Your Dog After a Bee Sting Other dangerous signs of an allergic reaction include significant drooling, agitation, or sudden aggression. If your dog starts vomiting within 5-10 minutes after being stung or has increasingly pale gums, this could be a sign of anaphylactic shock. If your dog shows either of these symptoms, head to an emergency vet immediately. Take your dog to an emergency vet right away if you suspect that she isn't breathing enough or that she is beginning to gasp or wheeze. It's crucial to keep an eye on your pet's breathing if the sting site swells noticeably, especially if it's on the neck or face. Dogs who have been stung before or who are stung by multiple bees at once time are more likely to have an allergic reaction. The most important thing to do immediately following a bee sting is to watch for an allergic reaction. In the meantime, call your regular vet to let them know what happened and ask if they’d like you to bring your dog in. What to Do if Your Dog Has Been Stung By a BeeĪfter a sting, monitor your dog for an allergic reaction. The most common spots for bee stings on dogs include the pads of the feet, the mouth, and the face. It may also be safe to assume a bee sting is a cause if your dog is digging around in a flower bush and crying out. The most obvious symptoms to watch out for are drooling, swelling, excessive licking, and pawing at a specific area.

Judith Kerr’s book does show its age (if nothing else in the pelmet-like length of Debbie’s skirt!) but it is still a classic book. Then she spots a small light moving about in the kitchen, and wonders if the strange man with a torch might be planning to feed her. She also thinks she hasn’t been fed (which she has been, of course). Poor Mog runs outside and sits miserably in the garden for a bit, thinking dark thoughts. The poor girl is scared into dreaming that she is being eaten by a tiger, whereupon she wakes up and cries, causing Mr and Mrs Thomas to call out in exasperation (and to the delight of small children everywhere) ‘Bother bother BOTHER that cat!’ The last straw is when she crawls onto Debbie’s bed and, forgetting that she is not a kitten, licks Debbie’s hair. They are often saying ‘Bother that cat!’ as Mog manages to eat Nicky’s boiled egg, squash Mrs Thomas’ hat, prevent Mr Thomas from watching the boxing on television and make Mrs Thomas drop an entire colander of peas. Mog lives with Mr and Mrs Thomas, Debbie and Nicky. Nobody in her family is very impressed by this behaviour. Instead of popping back in by herself, she hops up onto the windowsill and miaows loudly to be let back into the house. Most of all she forgets that she has a catflap. She tends to forget things, like washing the rest of her leg when halfway through it, or that she has already eaten supper. It was the Thomas family, of course, and we exonerate the reviewer.Mog is not very clever. In this review, we made it appear that our reviewer mistakenly believed that Mog "one of the best-known cats of her generation" lived with a family called Thompson. The following correction was printed in the Guardian's Corrections and Clarifications column, Saturday November 2, 2002 When she had finished haunting the Thomases, Mog soared straight towards the sun, fulfilling her lifetime ambition to be a high-flier who could "fly faster than the birds, even quite big birds". And earlier this year, only months before she died, she fell through the roof and inadvertently won first prize in a show, flying like supercat. In 1970, she won a medal for surprising a burglar ( Mog the Forgetful Cat ), by chance. It is true that her achievements were considerable, not least when it is remembered that they were all accidental. ( Mog and the Granny).Īnd yet her biographer, Judith Kerr, maintains that Mog was both "a good cat" and "a career cat". Mog suffered from jealousy (she could be a green-eyed monster) and had difficulty enduring a variety of imposters: a baby, a family of foxes, a cat called Tibbles. Like many of us, she found Christmas a strain (the trees filled her with pop-eyed gloom). Similarly, when her offspring scrambled up the Christmas tree, Mog was in despair. One kitten ( Mog's Kittens ) barely survived its upbringing: Mog discovered it sitting inside the fridge. She was not a natural parent, and found it hard to cope with the demands of her young ones. She had two kittens whose names have never been recorded. To this day, some admirers are unaware that Mog was a mother. She would often say "no" to fish - although her passion for eggs never diminished. Mog had a rather unsettled relationship with food: she was a picky eater, a protester who frequently went on hunger strike, upsetting the Thomases. She might have made a subject for Jungian analysis - were it not that she would have been inclined to go to sleep or worse (see Mog's Bad Thing ) on the couch. Her subconscious was dark, hyperactive and populated with marauding wildlife (Mog in the Dark Mog's Amazing Birthday Caper). A thorn in her paw (Mog and the Vee Ee Tee) once caused her distress, particularly when the vet became involved. She enjoyed splendid health but small setbacks alarmed her. Self-pity was Mog's forte: she was a virtuoso at sulking, especially in snow. Mog's brothers, Blackie and James, and sister, Matilda, survive her. Her grandfather was a shaggy corn-on-the-cob-coloured tom, known for his mighty appetite her granny was an oddball who slept in a green dish. Perhaps she inherited her genes from her grandparents, a more striking couple than her parents. Her paws were snowy, the rest of her brindled (grey and black) and she had a tail like a rounder's bat. She had a curvy mouth, capable of conveying complacency, delight and dejection. She was a good-looking kitten with a white bib and round green eyes, which - when she was vexed - changed to yellow almonds. She was born, in 1970, on a farm - her parents were simple rustics (Mog's Family of Cats). At first she did not even vanish from the premises: she haunted the Thomas household as a judgmental ghost and bossily tutored her successor, Rumpus, a ginger kitten. When death came (a potentially disruptive event, even when you think you have nine lives), Mog did not over-react. Our effort to make the perfect society have tended to try to follow Michelangelo’s advice. Bauman reminds us of what Michelangelo was supposed to have said when asked how he produced such amazing statues – I just chip away all the bits that don’t belong and I’m left with what does. What is waste? It is fundamentally that which is not needed, but that is necessary in producing things that are necessary. But this shows what comes from someone really thinking through an idea in all its manifestations. Normally, books that remind me of a teacher at a white board filling in a mind-map around a single term are the worst books I’ve ever read. This is what I sometimes call a ‘white board’ book. I certainly wasn’t expecting to be confronted with a wealth of fresh ideas and to have my perspectives on so many issues skewed. I’m not sure what I was expecting from this, but it would be fair to say I was expecting less. With characteristic brilliance, this new book by Zygmunt Bauman unravels the impact of this transformation on our contemporary culture and politics and shows that the problem of coping with ‘human waste’ provides a key for understanding some otherwise baffling features of our shared life, from the strategies of global domination to the most intimate aspects of human relationships. Hence the new anxieties about ‘immigrants’ and ‘asylum seekers’ and the growing role played by diffuse ‘security fears’ on the contemporary political agenda. The global spread of the modernity has given rise to growing quantities of human beings who are deprived of adequate means of survival, but the planet is fast running out of places to put them. They are now confronted with the need to seek – in vain, it seems – local solutions to globally produced problems. But as modernization has reached the furthest lands of the planet, ‘redundant population’ is produced everywhere and all localities have to bear the consequences of modernity’s global triumph. Global solutions were sought, and temporarily found, to locally produced overpopulation problems. It is an unavoidable side-effect of economic progress and the quest for order which is characteristic of modernity.Īs long as large parts of the world remained wholly or partly unaffected by modernization, they were treated by modernizing societies as lands that were able to absorb the excess of population in the ‘developed countries’. The production of ‘human waste’ – or more precisely, wasted lives, the ‘superfluous’ populations of migrants, refugees and other outcasts – is an inevitable outcome of modernization. (If you’re a Linux user, FontForge is more or less your only choice.)įor those rolling in cash, DTL FontMaster can do everything FontLab can, and more, but it’s quite expensive. FontForge is available for PC, Mac, and Linux. There was an interesting thread recently over at Typophile about FontForge that you might want to read, if you’re considering taking the open-source plunge. Also, the program is not as well documented as FontLab. That said, installing FontForge (at least under Windows) is not exactly a simple matter (you’ll need to install Cygwin first). I’ve used FontLab Studio pretty extensively, and can vouch for its excellence, and the vibrancy of the user community.įontForge can ostensibly do everything that FontLab can, and it’s free and open-source. A 30-day free trial is available, if you want to try before you buy. It is more or less the industry standard, and, as such, isn’t exactly cheap, coming in at $649 (US). The major players are listed below: Font Editing ProgramsįontLab Studio is what I use to make my fonts. Font editing software comes in a variety of strengths and prices, and works on a variety of platforms. (What! You haven’t learned all about serifs, side-bearings, and kerning? Well, make sure you read all of the articles on ILT before you embark on font creation! You’ll need all of the knowledge you can get if you plan on being successful! And if you’re not a brilliant designer or a master calligrapher, well, don’t worry-you can still create some beautiful fonts with a little hard work, a lot of knowledge, and a little inspiration.) The Crux: Font Editing SoftwareĪll the brilliant design, precise calligraphic work, and deep knowledge of kerning won’t mean anything if you can’t translate your work into a computer-friendly format, which is why you’ll need a good piece of font editing software at your disposal. If at some time, you want to dig a bit deeper and get further into the technical details that separate a quality font from those typically found on the free font sites, I really would recommend looking into Glyphs.So you’re a brilliant designer, a master calligrapher, and you’ve learned all about serifs, side-bearings, and kerning. For what it sounds like you’re wanting to do, it might be the best option for you. Like people told me would happen at the time, I soon found that out and switched to designing them solely in the creation software and resorting to Illustrator for only those things that Illustrator can do.įontForge is archaic, clunky and buggy, but it is usable (and free). I began, like you, thinking that Illustrator is a good type drawing tool, but it’s not made for designing or, especially, building fonts. For what it’s worth, I work in both FontLab and and application called Glyphs (which I like better). The last I looked, the user manual for FontLab (one of the more popular font creation applications) is around 900 pages long, which gives you an idea of the complexity of doing it the right way. Even if all you’re doing is drawing the glyphs in Illustrator and placing them into their Unicode slots in FontForge, it’s tedious and technical. You’re greatly underestimating the complexity involved in putting a font together. Exporting and editing through the software sounds like it’d take just as much time as creating a font itself.ĭesigning good, quality fonts is difficult, methodical, process-driven and very time-consuming.
