LEDs and other aesthetics: some case fans use the power supplied to the fan motor to also light up LEDs, either in a single color or in a multi-colored RGB array.RELATED: How to Pimp Your Gaming PC: A Guide to Lights, Colors, and Other Mods That said, some basic tests on these “high static pressure” models show that their benefit is questionable in standard air-cooled builds. Static pressure fans are designed to pull or push air with extra force, which is ideal for areas with more restricted airflow-like a water cooling radiator or a large CPU cooler with lots of fins. Airflow or static pressure: Case fans generally come with two types of fins: those designed for airflow, and those designed for static pressure. Airflow-optimized fans are quieter and great for unrestricted areas, like the front of your case.Some fans and cases even come with manual switches for basic fan control. ![]() With a compatible motherboard or a fan controller, though, you should be able to adjust your fans’ speed for the perfect balance, so this won’t matter as much. Faster fans move more air, but slower fans are much quieter.

Above their abandoned home, the companions lay dying and the Bukshah were kept from Mountain Heart, leaving the creepers to breed and multiply. The people of the Valley of Gold, enslaved by the Zebak, founded the first village of Rin behind the walls of the Zebak city. The Mountain wall, undermined by the roots of the trees, collapsed, and Mountain Heart was blocked, sealing the companions inside. As the snow receded, the Mountain berries in the Valley spread, and overnight the abandoned Valley was overrun by the devil trees, transformed into the abhorred Pit of Unrin. When the Bukshah left the Valley for Mountain Heart, the three companions followed them, hiding in the cave after the beasts had left. The people of the Valley left for the coast, but the keeper of the bukshah remained with the keeper of the silks, and soon one warrior returned - the people of the Valley had been captured by the Zebak before they'd even reached the coast. Many years later, the people of the Valley of Gold discovered the mountain berries, but that winter, before the berries completed their life-cycle, the Zebak took a foothold in Maris and messengers were sent to the Valley asking for reinforcements. The people eventually allowed the Bukshah to climb the mountain again, and the balance was restored - but they never told their Traveller friends the Mountain's secret. However, this also made the ice creepers more populous, causing the first Cold Time. The people of this Valley learned the secrets of Mountain Heart, and deliberately prevented the bukshah from traveling up there the fungus, uneaten, caused the river to flow with greater pressure, giving the people of the Valley more gold and riches. The valley behind the Mountain was eventually settled, and named the Valley of Gold. The bukshah were sustained for the winter, and the heat from the river of molten gold at Mountain Heart radiated into the ice creepers' cavern, maintaining a balance that controlled the population of the ice creepers and subdued the elemental rage in Mountain Heart. Long before the time of humans, the bukshah traveled up the Mountain every winter to feast on a grey fungus produced by the ice creepers. ![]() Further east, across the Silver Sea, lies the continent of Deltora. ![]() Across the sea, to the east, lies the Land of the Zebak the Zebak territory is a desert, its city reunited in steel walls and protected from land threats by the desolate, hazard-ridden Wastelands. Maris is the only point on the coast where ships can land safely, as north and south of Maris the coast is lined by hazardous rocks and steep cliffs. On the coast is the larger, more populous city of Maris, home to the fish-like Maris people. West of the Mountain is an unnavigable wasteland, and east of Rin lies a river that runs into the sea. Each book always begins in the small village of Rin, in an isolated valley that rests at the foot of the forbidden Mountain. The Rowan stories take place in a fictional world, on an island known as Maris. The other series are Deltora Quest ( Deltora Quest, Deltora Quest 2 and Deltora Quest 3), the Three Doors trilogy and Star of Deltora. This makes Rowan of Rin the fourth series set in the world of Deltora, sixth if you count the collective Deltora Quest series as three separate series. When Scholastic released Emily Rodda's Star of Deltora fantasy series, the Rowan of Rin series was revealed to be part of the world of Deltora, and the lands mentioned in the books are islands located to the west of Deltora. The series was first published in Australia in 1993 by Omnibus Books, a corporate division of Scholastic. It follows the adventures of a shy village boy, Rowan.

The actives would wake up in the morning and have to put it all back. ![]() We decided our prank would be to overturn all the furniture in the living room and remove all the dining room furniture in the middle of the night and put it on the front lawn. It was a tradition for each pledge class to pull a prank on the fraternity’s active as part of a “walkout.” I was a member of Sigma Alpha Mu (Sammy) during my four years at IU. The next time I walked by the fountain, probably several days later, everything had been restored to normal. The water now spouted out of its mouth onto the slate ground outside the fountain! I looked around, apparently with no one seeing me, and I quickly walked away! I think it was the fish on the west side of the fountain, opposite the IU Auditorium. I pushed on the tail of the closest fish and, lo and behold, it easily rotated. One day, while walking alone by the fountain, with not too many other folks around, I was curious to see if the fish spouting water rotated on their waterline bases. Showalter Fountain, The Birth of Venus, had recently been completed. Twist and Spout Showalter Fountain, 1961. The camera was stolen later in the trip, but we have a race day photo of the team. I think they were actually in on the joke and just played along. However, we took a few photos with them in front of their house. They invited us to dinner, and I suspect by the end of the dinner, were probably on to us. While there, we decided to talk to a few of the local sorority girls- told them we were doing a “story” on campus life at Alabama for the Indiana Daily Student. Instead of going to Florida to train for a week, we drove to Tuscaloosa, Ala., to train at the University of Alabama and stay at the ZBT house there. Our Zeta Beta Tau bike team did not have the budget of the larger bike teams at IU. “What happened?” I asked a fellow floormate.

Believe it or not, our house mom called their house mom (they were one of the only fraternities that still had a house mom) and worked out the plan. My idea was to go to their house, pull the fire alarm, and throw water balloons at them as they came out. How could we successfully boress them back when the bar had been set so high? They picked up my sorority sister’s Volkswagen Beetle, carried it to the front lawn, and mounted it on railroad ties.

When there is an empty space, the memory is used more efficiently. The elements in a circular queue act as a ring, meaning the last element is connected to the first element. Linear queues and circular queues are actually quite similar. ![]() Alternately, if the element with the lowest value has the highest priority, it will create a queue with an increasing order of values. For example, if the element with the highest value has priority, it creates a queue with a decreasing order of values. The priority queue arranges elements in a queue based on some priority. In a simple queue, also known as a linear queue, the insertion of elements, called enqueue operations, occurs at the backend, and the removal of elements, known as dequeue operations, occurs at the frontend. There are four major types of queues in Kotlin: a simple queue, priority queue, circular queue, and double-ended queue. In Kotlin, we can use queues to manage large amounts of data with ease or to handle inter-process communication. Another application is a mailing queue, which involves a directory that stores data and controls files for mail messages. In addition, queues are used in network devices like a switch or router. Finally, a queue functions as a waiting list for a single shared resource. These jobs, which are assigned to the processor, are organized in a queue. Job scheduling occurs when a computer is scheduled to execute a particular number of jobs one after another. Multi programming involves multiple programs running in a system’s main memory organizing these programs in a queue ensures orderliness in the system. Some important applications of the Kotlin queue include multi programming, network and job scheduling, and shared resources. These methods exist in two forms, those that throw an exception when the operations fail, and others that return a special value like null, true, or false. Essentially, a queue is a collection designed for holding elements prior to processing.Īside from the basic collection operations, Kotlin queues provide additional operations like insertion, extraction, and inspection. The queue functions as a buffer anywhere data or an event is stored to be processed later. The importance of the queue in Android development cannot be overstated. Why do we need queues in Android development? The most popular implementation of the queue interface is the LinkedList, while others include ArrayDeque and PriorityQueue. Let’s get started! What is a Kotlin queue?Ī queue is a type of interface collection in Kotlin that enables you to structure your data in a more efficient manner based on your chosen preference.
