Are There Illustrations In Frank Forester'S Field Sports Of The United States?

Bright and excited: Saori Hayami is the voice behind the lead in 'Raven of the Inner Palace' Season 2. Her performance is one of those things that instantly anchors the show — calm, refined, and quietly expressive. She has this way of making even the most subtle moments feel loaded with history and emotion, which suits the courtly, mysterious atmosphere of 'Raven of the Inner Palace' perfectly. If you watched Season 1, you’ll notice she reprises the role with the same poise but with a touch more emotional nuance in Season 2. I found myself paying more attention to the small inflections this time around; Hayami-sensei really knows how to sell a look or a pause through voice alone, and that elevates scenes that on paper might seem straightforward. Honestly, her casting feels like a peace-of-mind promise that the character will stay consistent and compelling — I’m genuinely happy with how she carries the lead this season.

My take is practical and a little geeky: a map that covers the high latitudes separates 'true north' and 'magnetic north' by showing the map's meridians (lines of longitude) and a declination diagram or compass rose. The meridians point to geographic north — the axis of the Earth — and that’s what navigational bearings on the map are usually referenced to. The magnetic north, which a handheld compass points toward, is not in the same place and moves over time. On the map you’ll usually find a small diagram labeled with something like ‘declination’ or ‘variation’. It shows an angle between a line marked ‘True North’ (often a vertical line) and another marked ‘Magnetic North’. The value is given in degrees and often includes an annual rate of change so you can update it. For polar maps there’s often also a ‘Grid North’ shown — that’s the north of the map’s projection grid and can differ from true north. I always check that declination note before heading out; it’s surprising how much difference a few degrees can make on a long trek, and it’s nice to feel prepared.

Totally — yes, you can find historical explorers' North Pole maps online, and half the fun is watching how wildly different cartographers imagined the top of the world over time. I get a kid-in-a-library buzz when I pull up scans from places like the Library of Congress, the British Library, David Rumsey Map Collection, or the National Library of Scotland. Those institutions have high-res scans of 16th–19th century sea charts, expedition maps, and polar plates from explorers such as Peary, Cook, Nansen and others. If you love the physical feel of paper maps, many expedition reports digitized on HathiTrust or Google Books include foldout maps you can zoom into. A neat trick I use is searching for explorer names + "chart" or "polar projection" or trying terms like "azimuthal" or "orthographic" to find maps centered on the pole. Some early maps are speculative — dotted lines, imagined open sea, mythical islands — while later ones record survey data and soundings. Many are public domain so you can download high-resolution images for study, printing, or georeferencing in GIS software. I still get a thrill comparing an ornate 17th-century polar conjecture next to a precise 20th-century survey — it’s like time-traveling with a compass.

Heads-up: there isn't a confirmed streaming premiere date for 'Love in Orbit' season 2 that I can point to right now. I've been following the show's official channels and fan groups closely, and so far the production team hasn't released a fixed date for the season 2 streaming launch. That's not uncommon — after a renewal you'll often see a slow drip of news: confirmation, casting updates, a teaser, then a full trailer and a release window. For shows like this, platforms sometimes announce the streaming premiere just a few weeks before launch, especially if they're scheduling for a specific programming block or trying to build buzz with a surprise trailer. If you want a practical playbook: follow the official social accounts tied to 'Love in Orbit', subscribe to the channel or platform that streamed season 1, and turn on notifications for those accounts. Fan translations and synopsis pages often spot press releases and festival screenings first, so community feeds are a great early-warning system. Personally, I love stalking the cast's social posts — they drop filming wrap photos and premiere hints more often than you'd think. Can't wait to see where they take the story next; I'm already imagining the chemistry and new plot twists.

The weekly rotation at the 'Eververse' in 'Destiny 2' is like a tiny holiday every Tuesday for me — I check in just to see what silly emote or gorgeous ship got dusted off this time. Usually what I find are cosmetic staples: emotes (dance moves, gestures, silly actions), armor ornaments that change the look of helmets, chests and class items, shaders to recolor gear, ghost shells, ships, and sparrows. There are also transmat effects and finishers sprinkled in, and during seasonal events you'll see themed sets (Halloween, Solstice, Dawning) show up. Some weeks a rare-looking ornament or a flashy emote is in the Featured or Spotlight slot, and sometimes older goodies get reissued. You pay with either Silver (real-money currency) or Bright Dust (in-game currency earned from seasonal content and Eververse drops). The store refreshes each weekly reset, and there’s a mix of always-available items, rotating spotlight pieces, and limited-event goods. I love how it keeps my collection game fresh — sometimes I buy on impulse, sometimes I wait for a reissue, but either way it’s an excuse to log in and admire the cosmetics.

Weirdly enough, cracking open the Bright Engrams in 'Destiny 2' feels like a tiny economy lesson every time I log in. Bright Dust is the free-ish currency Bungie gives players to buy cosmetics from the 'Eververse' storefront, and you mostly earn it by participating in the game — decrypting those Engrams, completing seasonal quests and challenges, and occasionally from event rewards. It’s account-wide, so whatever you collect on one character is available to all of them, which makes planning purchases less of a headache. The clever bit is how supply and demand are shaped: many of the flashiest or newest cosmetics are sold for real-money currency (Silver) or a mix of Silver and Bright Dust, while a rotating selection is buyable entirely with Bright Dust. That creates pressure to either spend your Dust on the things that matter to you right away or save it for rare ornaments and older vault items that Bungie might put on sale later. I tend to prioritize ornaments and seasonal bundles I really want, because chasing every emote is a fast way to drain my stash — still, there's a childish joy in snagging a shader I love, and I don’t regret a single guilty emote purchase.

Huge news — 'Ya Boy Kongming!' Season 2 rolled into the new year and started airing in January 2024. It premiered in Japan first as usual, then was simulcast on international streaming services so fans around the world could follow it week by week. My experience was catching the English-sub release on a major platform the same week it aired in Japan; some regions got the episodes a few hours later, but it was basically a global watch party vibe. The season kept the music-forward energy that hooked me in the first season. There were new collabs, fresh tracks, and the same wild blend of historical Kongming charm with modern pop culture. If you were following the soundtrack announcements and the promo clips, the rollout felt deliberate and hype-building. Personally, bingeing several episodes back-to-back on a lazy weekend felt like being at a tiny live concert in my living room — and I loved every minute of it.

If you're asking about the Pandora jewelry store in Palmerston North, the short version is that the brand-level rights belong to Pandora A/S, the Danish company that designs, trademarks, and manufactures Pandora jewellery worldwide. They own the core trademarks, design registrations, and the product copyrights for Pandora pieces. That means the name, logo, and the distinctive charm designs are controlled centrally by Pandora A/S and enforced through trademark and design law in markets like New Zealand. At the local level, the physical shop in Palmerston North is typically run under a retail agreement: either by Pandora's regional subsidiary or by an authorized retailer/franchisee who has the right to operate that specific shop and sell their products. The lease on the retail space itself belongs to whoever signed the lease with the shopping-centre landlord, and any local social-media pages or local marketing assets might be controlled by the store manager or franchisor under license. So, in practice, Pandora A/S owns the intellectual-property rights to the brand and products, while the Palmerston North outlet’s day-to-day operations, lease, and local marketing rights are held by the local retailer or franchisee — a split between global IP ownership and local commercial control. I find that split between global brand control and local shop personality always makes retail shopping more interesting.
