![]() ![]() Unity and ironSource’s complementary data and product capabilities will give creators access to better funding for user acquisition (UA) and monetization to successfully scale their games and accelerate their economic performance. ![]() It also reinforces our strong conviction in the long-term strength and growth of the in-game advertising business. By joining forces with ironSource, the right opportunity presented itself for Unity to go bold and further our mission to be the economic engine/driver for our creators' success so creators can continue their craft of making games. Although advertising is facing some temporary challenges right now due to macroeconomic factors, this is a business that has proven itself resilient despite the many ups and downs of economic cycles and regulatory changes. Advertising has long been and we believe will continue to be the economic engine for mobile games, driving players into their games and driving revenue at scale. An important tool for this is Unity Ads - our monetization solution for mobile games that enables game developers to monetize their entire player base. Operate’s mission is to enable the success of our creators to deliver the best player experiences and build robust businesses. We believe that ironSource’s enhancements for Unity’s Operate Solutions will instantaneously yield immediate benefit to creators. For our community, it will drive tighter integration between Operate and Create solutions and deliver the best potential combination of value to creators, publishers, and advertisers - in games and beyond. The combination of both companies will accelerate Unity’s growth as a software company powering the creator economy end-to-end. ironSource’s suite of tools and solutions provides the majority of the world’s top games and many of the leading non-gaming apps with the monetization, marketing, analytics, and discovery capabilities they need to build and run scalable app-based businesses. If you don’t know ironSource, they bring a proven record of helping creators focus on what creators do best – bringing great apps and user experiences to life – while enabling business expansion in the app economy. As we move closer to this vision today, we couldn’t be more excited about bringing ironSource into the Unity family. Our vision is to provide creators with a powerful, flexible engine that they can realize their visions through - quickly and beautifully - while introducing the tools that help them learn and better understand their audiences, helping them to more quickly iterate and improve to build a robust and scalable business from. From the general availability of Unity Gaming Services to our recent acquisitions of Parsec, SyncSketch, Wētā Digital, and Ziva Dynamics, to the work we continue to deliver in the core Unity tools and in Operate, we are focused on delivering outsized value for creators. And we see that these trends are extending beyond gaming.Īs a result, we have focused on fine-tuning our platform of tools, solutions, and services that deliver and accelerate value to creators - regardless of what engine they choose to build on. Players want connection - they want to play with each other, and be social. Over the past year, we’ve been making sure we have the right tools and focus that are delivering the most value to our user community, particularly as the industry evolves. We continue to believe that the world is a better place with more creators in it. Unity announced today that it has entered into an agreement to merge with ironSource, harnessing the company's tools, platform, technology, and talent to form an end-to-end platform that enables creators to more easily create, publish, run, monetize, and grow live games and RT3D content seamlessly. ![]()

![]() ![]() Protect yourself from the dangers of flood water by obeying barriers and barricades. Drowning is the number one cause of flood related deaths. Most people are not aware that it only takes six inches of water for a car to become buoyant or for water to knock you off your feet. For more information about flood insurance, finding an agent, how flood insurance rates are calculated, and to find a policy that fits your needs, visit FloodSmart. ![]() The City also participates in a voluntary FEMA program known as the Community Rating System (CRS) that provides discounts on flood insurance to eligible citizens located inside the floodplain and up to a 5% discount to those who live outside of the floodplain (not including citizens with a Preferred Risk Policy). La Porte’s participation in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) allows for citizens to purchase flood insurance at a subsidized rate, regardless of location or past damage. There is a 30-day waiting period before a policy becomes effective, so don’t delay. Call your insurance agent today to make sure your policy covers both structure and contents. Usually these policies just cover the building’s structure and not the contents. Some people have purchased flood insurance because it was required by the bank or loan company when they obtained a mortgage or home improvement loan. Basic homeowner’s insurance does not cover flood damages. Regardless of where you live in La Porte, you need flood insurance.

Past flooding events such as the Memorial Day flood in 2015, the Tax Day flood in 2015, Hurricane Ike in 2008, and Tropical Storm Allison in 2001 have shown that everyone in Harris County is at risk because ALL properties in the city are susceptible to flooding. The city also has numerous secondary watersheds and other drainage features that carry water across the city’s 20 square miles. The main water sources are the Little Cedar Bayou watershed, Clear Creek watershed, Armand Bayou watershed, and Galveston Bay. The city of La Porte is susceptible to riverine flooding and coastal flooding, as well as urban flooding such as low lying areas, street flooding, and flash flooding.

These ants are renowned for their ability to survive extreme conditions. One such species that Solenopsis ants parasitically take advantage of are bees, such as Euglossa imperialis, a nonsocial orchid bee species, from which the ants enter the cells from below the nest and rob the cell's contents. Fire ants are more aggressive than most native species, so have pushed many species away from their local habitat. For humans, this is a painful sting, a sensation similar to what one feels when burned by fire (hence the name), and the after-effects of the sting can be deadly to sensitive people. Unlike many other ants, which bite and then spray acid on the wound, fire ants bite only to get a grip and then sting (from the abdomen) and inject a toxic alkaloid venom called solenopsin, a compound from the class of piperidines. Fire ants often attack small animals such as small lizards and can kill them. Behavior Ī fire ant worker, queen, and male (clockwise from bottom left)Ī typical fire ant colony produces large mounds in open areas, and feeds mostly on young plants, insects and seeds. Many ants bite, and formicine ants can cause irritation by spraying formic acid myrmecine ants like fire ants have a dedicated venom-injecting sting, which injects an alkaloid venom, as well as mandibles for biting. ants can be identified by three body features-a pedicel with two nodes, an unarmed propodeum, and antennae with 10 segments plus a two-segmented club. In an established nest these different sizes of ants are all present at the same time. ![]() The worker ants are blackish to reddish and their size varies from 2 to 6 mm (0.079 to 0.236 in). Fire ants of those species invasive in the United States can be distinguished from other ants locally present by their copper brown head and thorax with a darker abdomen. The bodies of mature fire ants, like the bodies of all typical mature insects, are divided into three sections: the head, the thorax, and the abdomen, with three pairs of legs and a pair of antennae. Appearance ĭetail of the head ( Solenopsis geminata) Wasmannia auropunctata is another unrelated ant commonly called the "little fire ant" due to its potent sting. None of these names apply to all species of Solenopsis nor only to Solenopsis species for example the colloquial names for several species of weaver ants in the genus Oecophylla in Southeast Asia include "fire ants" because of their similar coloration and painful bites the two genera, however, are not closely related. Both Myrmica rubra and Pogonomyrmex barbatus are common examples of non-Solenopsis ants being termed red ants. ![]() Many of the names shared by this genus are often used interchangeably to refer to other species of ant, such as the term red ant, mostly because of their similar coloration despite not being in the genus Solenopsis. ![]() Solenopsis are stinging ants, and most of their common names reflect this, for example, ginger ants and tropical fire ants. Fire ants are several species of ants in the genus Solenopsis, which includes over 200 species. ![]() ![]() ![]() Set up two-factor authentication for your accounts.Start with your most important passwords first, like the ones for your email, financial, and social media accounts. ![]() If your LastPass data was part of a breach and you haven’t changed your passwords yet, use 1Password to generate and save new passwords for all your accounts.

![]() ![]() New World is set in a fictional world during the 17th century during the Age of Exploration. PvP Flagged state is activated after 30 seconds cooldown which starts after players leave the zone of settlement. Before leaving a safe-zone settlement, players have the option to set the "flagged state" - which will make them vulnerable to attacks from other flagged players and vice versa. The game mechanics offer PvP combat with and without questing. The player may purchase personal housing and erect furnishings to achieve aesthetic and utility bonuses, as well as obtain a means for fast traveling to the settlement site. This damage can be repaired with repair items and gold coins. Characters that die do not drop items, but with each combat encounter, use, or death, the player's items undergo damage. The player can dispose of unwanted items through a trader between players in exchange for gold coins, they can "salvage" (dismantle) the items for resources, they can discard the item on to the unsecured ground, or they can make a direct transfer to another player. The player may dodge or climb most environmental objects or use the fire staff to cross large aerial spaces. ![]() Three quick travel methods exist and, although no fast speed mounts are available, there is a set of skills for intermittent forward speed boosts. There is also a "camping" skill (wilderness survival). The trade skills are divided into the three categories of "crafting" (weapon smithing, armoring, engineering, jewel crafting, arcana, cooking, and furnishing), "refining" (smelting, woodworking, leather working, weaving, and stone cutting), and "gathering" (logging, mining, harvesting, and tracking and skinning). The player's character also levels up weapon and trade skills. Diminishing returns scale as an attribute's skill level increases. The character levels up personal attribute skills. The weapon skill tree choices are currently for bow, hammer, hatchet, great axe, fire staff, life staff, musket, blunderbuss, spear, sword/shield, ice gauntlet, void gauntlet, and great sword. With each level, the hostile mobs are programmed with increasingly complex and strong sequences of attacking behavior skill sets that will require the player to counter using their mana, stamina, and health with timed attacks, dodges, weapon blocks, retreats, or crawling stealth. The gameplay involves no auto-locked targeting attacks and, therefore, a steady hand at aiming is required. The players may form groups of up to five members, join one of three factions (Marauders, Syndicate, or Covenant), gather raw materials (wood, stone, animal skins etc.) from resource spots, craft items, gain control over settlements, quest, explore the world, or fight other players or monsters.
