The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons

***The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages*** and ***The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons*** are 2001 action adventure video games in the Legend of Zelda series. They were made by Capcom and published by Nintendo for the Game Boy Color game console. They were re-released on the Virtual Console of Nintendo 3DS in 2013 and on the Nintendo Switch Online service in 2023.

### _Oracle of Seasons_

The Triforce sends Link to the land of Holodrum, where he stumbles upon a traveling group of performers. After resting with them a bit, he finds out that the mysterious dancer from the troup is actually the Oracle of Seasons, Din. An evil general named Onox comes and captures her in order to gain power. By doing so he also puts all the seasons into chaos and evil spreads throughout the land. Link must find all the essences of nature to defeat the evil general to save Din.

### _Oracle of Ages_

The Triforce sends Link to the land of Labrynna, where he finds a woman named Impa. They go to see a singer named Nayru. Nayru is the Oracle of Ages. Impa is revealed to have been possessed by Veran, Sorceress of Shadows, who leaves Impa and goes to possess Nayru, causing the time to fall into chaos. Link must find the Essences of Time in order to save Nayru from Veran.

### Linked ending

If one game is played after the other and a linked password is typed in, Twinrova captures Princess Zelda, lighting the Flame of Despair to make Ganon alive again.

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask

is an action-adventure video game made by Nintendo for the Nintendo 64 game console. The game was remade in 2015 for the Nintendo 3DS titled ***The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D.***

It was also included in The Legend of Zelda: Collector's Edition.

## Plot

After _The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time_, Link is led to Termina by the possessed Skull Kid and is turned into a Deku, a small, wooden creature. He meets the Happy Mask Salesman, a very moody man. He offers to fix Link if he gets the mask Skull Kid got with a time of three days. However, three days passed, and the Skull Kid, possessed with Majora's Mask (what the Happy Mask Salesman needed) brings the moon down to destroy Termina. Link stops him, gets his ocarina back, and returns back three days ago. He returns to the Salesman who believes Link has the mask. He reheals him before he sees Link never got the mask. Link now has to stop the moon that will destroy everything, which is being done by Majora's Mask, the mask held by Skull Kid. To stop it, he needs to summon the Four Giants. He fights the possessed spirits, and the Giants hold the moon. However, Majora's Mask leaves Skull Kid and goes to the Moon, After helping people, Link finally goes to the moon. It is actually a plain with a tree. Under the tree, a kid agrees to play with him as the final battle takes hold. Link finally defeats the evil in Majora's Mask and it is now a lifeless mask. He returns it to the Salesman. After this, Link leaves Termina as the game ends.

Zelda II: The Adventure of Link

***Zelda II: The Adventure of Link*** is an adventure-role-playing video game made by Nintendo for the Nintendo Entertainment System game console.

It was also released in The Legend of Zelda: Collector's Edition.

## Plot

The main hero of the series, Link, finds out that Princess Zelda has gone under a deep sleep after a fight with a wizard. While trying to find crystals to awaken Zelda, Link also fights off followers of Ganon, who are trying to bring him back to life.

## Gameplay

The gameplay of _The Adventure of Link_ is very different from the rest of the series. It is a role-playing game where the player gains experience and levels up stats. The map is also different; the overworld is a birds-eye view, while smaller maps are side scrolling where the player moves only left and right.

## Development

Shigeru Miyamoto wanted to have a very different game than the first game, The Legend of Zelda. While Miyamoto was still the producer of the game, it was developed by new people than before. Instead of keeping a view from above, _Zelda II_ has a side-view of the game when fighting enemies or exploring dungeons. The game was originally developed for the Famicom, but was released on worldwide systems after.

Tautology (rhetoric)

In rhetoric, a **tautology** is the repetition of a statement, for example, "With malice toward none, with charity for all".

Unlike a tautology in logic, it is not automatically true.

## Examples

- The phrase "A is A", often mistakenly attributed to Aristotle, was a favorite of Ayn Rand. The idea frequently appears in her  philosophy, especially as written in her novel _Atlas Shrugged_.
- The phrase A is B because A is B.
- In his book _Mostly Harmless_, Douglas Adams used the phrase, "Anything that happens, happens. Anything that in happening causes something else to happen, causes something else to happen. Anything that in happening happens again, happens again. Though not necessarily in that order."
- Comedian Mitch Hedberg joked about a tautological advertisement for a boxing match: "It said, _It's a fight to the finish!_ (pause) That's a good place to end."
Tautology (logic)

- _A tautology can also be a figure of speech_
In propositional logic, a **tautology** (from the Greek word ταυτολογία) is a propositional formula that is always true, and is sometimes denoted by the symbol  (a symbol also reserved for the truth value 'true'). In other words, a tautology cannot be wrong. For example, formulae in maths are tautological, because they always hold true for any values. The philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein first applied the term to propositional logic in 1921.

In formal terms, a formula  is a tautology if it is true under all possible interpretations. In other words, for every interpretation , we have . An interpretation  of a formula  is defined as a function that assigns a truth value to . That is , where .

A statement in logic is considered contingent if it is neither a tautology nor false.

Some examples of tautologies in natural language include:
- "I know that this is Wikipedia because I know that this is Wikipedia."
- "I am president of this club because I am the president of this club."
- "The first rule of the tautology club is the first rule of the tautology club."
These tautologies are sentences of the following form:
- A is true because A is true
Indeed, if A is not true, then A is not true, so the tautology is still true.

Longhorn beetle

The **longhorn beetles** or **long-horned beetles** (**Cerambycidae**) are a family of beetles that have long antennae. The antennae may be longer than the beetles' body. Over 35,000 species have been described.

The length of the antennae is an obvious feature of their body. Their long antennae sprout from tubercles on the face. Cerambycids with short antennae still have the tubercles. Otherwise they vary greatly in size, shape, sculpture, and colour.

Many of the species are mimics of Hymenoptera (ants, bees, and wasps). The rest are cryptically colored. The titan beetle (_Titanus giganteus_) from northeastern South America is often considered the largest insect (though not the heaviest, and not the longest including legs). Its maximum body length is just over .

Gene pool

A **gene pool** is the set of all possible variations (alleles) of all genes of a population. It is a concept in population genetics.

For example, plants have genes that say what colour their flowers will be. The gene pool of peas has an allele for red flowers and another one for white flowers.
Transcription (genetics)

**Transcription** is when RNA is made from DNA. The DNA sequence is copied by a special enzyme called RNA polymerase to make a matching RNA strand.

- "All living things, with their myriad variations, use an almost identical microscopic machine to read their genes. This machine – RNA polymerase – is responsible for a process called transcription, which by producing RNA from DNA, takes the first step in reading the blueprint of life that is encoded in all of our genes".

The matching RNA strand is a 'pre-messenger RNA'. Next, the non-coding introns are stripped out by a spliceosome. The remaining exons are put together to make a messenger RNA.

The product is called **messenger RNA** (mRNA) because it carries a genetic message from the DNA to the protein-making machinery of the cell. Transcription is the first step that leads to the expression of the genes.

The stretch of DNA that is transcribed into an RNA molecule is called a _transcription unit_. This contains:
1. sequences which regulate the protein synthesis
1. sequences which do not code: introns
1. sequences which do code for amino acid sequences in the protein. They are called exons.

As in DNA replication, only one of the two DNA strands is transcribed. This strand is called the _template strand_, because it provides the template for ordering the sequence of nucleotides in an RNA transcript. The other strand is called the _coding strand_. Its sequence is the same as the newly created RNA transcript (except for thymine being substituted for uracil).

The DNA template strand is read 3' → 5' direction by RNA polymerase and the new RNA strand is synthesized in the 5'→ 3' direction. RNA polymerase binds to the 3' end of a gene (promoter) on the DNA template strand and travels toward the 5' end.

Roger D. Kornberg won the 2006 Nobel Prize in Chemistry "for his studies of the molecular basis of eukaryotic transcription".

Star Wars prequel trilogy

The **Star Wars** prequel trilogy is a series of movies released between May 1999 and May 2005. All three movies were written and directed by George Lucas. The three movies are: Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace (1999), Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones (2002) and Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (2005)

## Production

Lucasfilm started production on The Phantom Menace after George Lucas got interested in reviving the Star Wars franchise.

## Reception

While all three movies are financially successful, the first two movies had mixed reviews, with the final movie having positive reviews. Critics didn't like the dialogue and some of the characters, including Jar Jar Binks. Many fans also thought that the previous three movies were better.

The trilogy has been popular with millennials who grew up with the movies. Because of this, the subreddit called Prequel Memes gained popularity. In more recent years, the movies have been more positively reviewed.
Seattle Mariners

The **Seattle Mariners** are an American Major League Baseball team based in Seattle, Washington. The Mariners are part of the Western Division of Major League Baseball's American League. Since July 1999, their home stadium has been T-Mobile Park (originally Safeco Field). Until they moved in June 1999, the club's home park was the Kingdome.

Seattle had minor league baseball teams from the early 1900s to the late 1960s, with nicknames such as the "Indians" and the "Rainiers".

The first major league baseball franchise in Seattle was the Seattle Pilots, formed in 1969. The Pilots moved to Milwaukee the next year and became the Milwaukee Brewers. As a result, the city of Seattle, King County, and the state of Washington sued the American League for $32 million dollars in damages. In exchange for dropping the law suit, the American League gave Seattle a Major League Baseball team in 1977.

Seattle is a large and important seaport, a fact which led to the major league teams being called the "Pilots" and the "Mariners".

The Mariner's first winning season was in 1991, and the first time they made the playoffs was in 1995. The Mariners are owned by Nintendo of America, and the general manager of the team is Dan Wilson. Thier star player is Julio Rodriguez.

Gothic Revival architecture

**Gothic Revival architecture** is architecture that has been made to look as if it is from medieval times, but is really much later. This architectural style began in the late 1740s in England. Its momentum grew in the early 19th century. Serious and learned admirers of neo-Gothic styles sought to revive medieval Gothic architecture.

The Gothic style of architecture was built in Europe between about 1140 and about 1550. Beginning in late 18th century Europe, through the 19th century and into the early 20th century in Europe and elsewhere there was a fashion to build in the Gothic style. In this period architects and their patrons had various different styles to choose from. There were also revivals of Classical and Renaissance styles. Since medieval Gothic buildings vary so much, some architects often copied selectively from medieval buildings and some adapted the style to the needs of their own period. The "Gothic Revival" style was most commonly used for churches, cathedrals, universities, town halls and sometimes houses.

Gothic Revival buildings have features that are like real Gothic buildings. They often have:
- Pointed arches round the doors and windows
- Arched stoned roofs called "vaults"
- Towers and sometimes also spires on top of towers
- Many stone-carvings around the doors and fireplaces
- Stained glass windows

## Famous Gothic Revival examples

- _Strawberry Hill_ at Twickenham, near London, was one of the first houses designed in the Gothic Revival style.
- The Houses of Parliament, London
- Sydney University
- São Paulo Cathedral, Brazil
- The campus of Yale University and the University of Chicago
Saint Dominic

Aikido

/eye-Kee-doh/ is a Japanese martial art.  It was developed by Morihei Ueshiba.

Aikido is based on Ueshiba's philosophy, martial arts training and religious beliefs. The word "aikido" is often translated as "the way of unifying (with) life energy" or as "the way of harmonious spirit." Ueshiba wanted to create an art where people could defend themselves without harming their attacker by using the attackers "ki" against them. He wanted each practitioner of aikido to develop both physically and spiritually.

Aikido is performed by blending with the way the attacker moves, using the force of the attack rather than coming against it. This is achieved by using the attackers "ki" against them. This takes very little physical strength, as the _aikidōka_ (person who does aikido) uses the force of the attacker's own momentum using stepping and turning movements. The techniques are completed with many different throws or joint locks which can be combined with different defenses. Aikido is one of many grappling arts.

Aikido is based on the martial art of Daitō-ryū Aiki-jūjutsu, but began to separate from it in the late 1920s, partly due to Ueshiba's involvement with the Ōmoto-kyō religion. Ueshiba's early students' records use the name _aiki-jūjutsu_. Many of Ueshiba's senior students have different approaches to aikido, depending on when they studied with him. Today aikido is found all over the world in a number of styles, with different groups placing importance on different things. However, they all share techniques learned from Ueshiba and most have concern for the safety of the attacker.

Carbon nanotube

A **carbon nanotube** is an allotrope of carbon that is shaped like a tube of carbon atoms. Carbon nanotubes are very tough and hard to break, but still relatively light. Some are very long. Because of their high strength, carbon nanotubes may one day be used for bulletproof armour and other uses needing hard, lightweight materials. A few carbon nanotubes also let electricity through them. Some may be up to 1,000 times better at conducting electricity than metals like copper and silver.

Witch doctor

The term "**witch doctor"** often refers to a healer in undeveloped regions who uses traditional (and sometimes out-of-date) methods rather than modern medicine or science.

The term "witch doctor" is generally used negatively. It is often used to imply that the healer has little or no experience or ability in medicine.

The role is both practical and spiritual. The so-called "witch doctor" is often the guardian of their tribe's belief system and rituals. Key ceremonies must be properly held or the life of the community may fall apart, as has happened in many places. Aggressive action by outsiders to the local belief system may lead to the 'genocide of indigenous peoples'.

## Origin of the term

The Oxford English Dictionary says that the first recorded use of "witch doctor" was in 1718, in a book by Francis Hutchinson.

The witch doctors in Africa are known as sangomas in Southern Africa. The Oxford English Dictionary states that the first use of the term "witch doctor" to refer to African shamans (i.e. medicine men) was in 1836 in a book by Robert Montgomery Martin (1803?-1868).

Klingon

**Klingons** (; Pronunciation: /ˈt͡ɬɪŋɑn/) are a warrior race and major antagonists in the fictional _Star Trek_ universe. They were in the show _Star Trek: The Original Series_ (TOS) many times and were in all five spin-off television series afterwards. They were one of the main enemies of the United Federation of Planets, but eventually they became partners.

Made by writer Gene Coon, Klingons were introduced in the episode "Errand of Mercy" (1967). They were named for Lieutenant Wilbur Clingan, who served with _Star Trek_ creator Gene Roddenberry in the Los Angeles Police Department.

In the first series, the conflict between the Federation and Klingon was supposed to be referring to the then-current Cold War unfriendliness between the United States and the Soviet Union. _Star Trek: The Next Generation_ continued to have the Klingon as a group similar to the army but they made the Klingon fighter follow rules similar to bushido, military Japanese rules for behavior valuing honor above life.
Right-handedness

Someone who is **right-handed** will use their right-hand for everyday activities, such as writing, keeping personal hygiene, cooking and more. According to a studies, anywhere from 70% to 90% of the world population is right-handed, while most of the remaining are left-handed. A small percentage of the population can use both hands equally well; a person with this ability is called a ambidextrous.

Nurgle

In the fictional universes of Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Fantasy, **Nurgle** is one of the four major Chaos gods.  Like his brother gods, Nurgle grew from a single survivalist emotion: in his case, the emotion was despair. Nurgle is the Chaos god of disease, decay, despair and destruction.  Even though the nature of his influence, he begins to like his victims, caring for them in a jovial manner close to a loving grandfather; so he is commonly called _Grandfather Nurgle_ or _Papa Nurgle_. He is also called the _Lord of Decay_, _Master of Plague and Pestilence_ and _Lord of All_.  He is shown as a huge, bloated humanoid, with boils and sores, his body completely rotten from disease.  He is usually with an enveloping cloud of buzzing flies.

Abbas ibn Abd al-Muttalib

**`Abbas ibn `Abd al-Muttalib**  (****) (c. 566 – c. 653) was a uncle and companion of Muhammad.

## Key Facts

- He was only born a few years before his nephew Muhammad, and was one of Muhammad's father's youngest brothers.
- The Abbasid dynasty claimed the title of caliph (literally "successor to the prophet") through his son Abdullah ibn Abbas.
- He is buried in Medina.

## Background

Muhammad had 10 or 11 uncles. Four of them earned a great name in history - Abu Talib, Abu Lahab, Hamza and Abbas. Abu Talib became important because he brought up his orphan nephew,  Muhammad, with great love and care and always supported and protected him. Abu Lahab  is famous because he tried to _destroy_ Islam. Both Hamza and  ‘Abbas became Muslims and remained firm and strong in their faith in Islam.
