Cassie Nova, the Nova's good clone in DYNASTY WARRIORS 8 Empires2018
I notice as I was looking through my characters photos, my MC(Main Character): William, his CG (Covergirl) wife: Wilma Sue and his MA (Main Antagonist): Victor all have a copy of themselves except for BCG ("Bad" CoverGirl) Nova who did not have one.
I decided to alter my character list and create Cassie Nova.
Her story,
Cassie Nova is the results of a fail attempt by Nova to have a "back-up" baby from Victor when she was a teen. The attempt fail creating a nonfunctioning embryo.
Royce, the father of my MA, when correcting Nova's body before her second battle with Victor's fiancée, created the baby clone of Nova from the dysfunctional embryo(A body replacement in case she failed to win).
Note: Royce's powers are equivalent to Marvel Comic's "Cosmic Cube" at the cost of losing much of his life force. EVERY time he exerts the power it shortens his life span.
When Nova left Earth, Nova's parents raised the baby after they were granted custody of the embryo.
Nova would later travel back in time, WITH PERMISSION, to visit her parents. When Nova learned of the teenage Cassie, Cassie was kidnapped by Nova from her "parents".
Failing to convert Cassie to join her "sister" and not having the heart to kill "herself", Nova gives Cassie to my MC's forces because Cassie was missing and NEVER found in the 24th Century(She cannot be returned to that timeline).
Cassie's first name comes from a maternal second cousin who paid for the original Nova's schooling.
repair: it‘s all about attitude, about taking up the responsibility and starting
to change the things.

More than 100 Soldiers, Civilians, Retirees and Family Members joined Korean volunteers today for the second annual Humphreys Make a Difference Day at Deog Dong San Park in Pyeongtaek.
The volunteers spent the morning picking up trash, raking leaves and conducting beautification projects under the watchful eyes of the Pyeongtaek City Parks and Greenbelt Management Division.
Following the work the volunteers enjoyed lunch, a performance by the ShinHan Middle School traditional dance team and a post-work awards ceremony.

I think it was their height difference that interested me. I liked how the light and shadows on their faces turned out.
Percent difference calculator equals the absolute value of the change in value, divided by the average of the 2 numbers, all multiplied by 100. We then append the percent sign, %.Percent increase and percent decrease are measures of percent change, which is the extent to which a variable gains or loses intensity, magnitude, extent, or value. The figures are arrived at by comparing the initial (or before) and final (or after) quantities according to a specific formula. It is assumed that both the initial and the final quantities are positive (larger than 0).
Is there a cubicle and a pair of uncomfortable, polyester slacks in your future, or do you want more from life than the garden-variety job? HSU is a great place to start making a difference.
Words, CAN- NOT describe the difference!
I feel sad, for anyone who runs a . . .
( hummel floorsander ), without a pair of
"RESTED HANDS" handle grips. I smile every time I get my sander out! -Ahhhh! !

HUMPHREYS GARRISON — Joining millions of people around the world, about 250 members of the U.S. Army Garrison Humphreys community, along with 100 students and adults from Pyeongtaek City, participated in Make a Difference Day by helping to clean up Deog Dong San City Park, in Pyeongtaek, Oct. 23.
According to Denise Chappell, the Army Community Service volunteer coordinator and project officer for the event, “Make a Difference Day is the most encompassing national day of helping others; a celebration of neighbors helping neighbors.”
The program was created by USA Weekend Magazine 20 years ago and has become an annual event that takes place on the fourth Saturday of October.
This was the third year in a row that the garrison partnered with the local community to participate in the program.
At the park, volunteers from the Bright Society-Goodwill, Cooperation and Service Shinhan High School Chapter, Pyeongtaek City’s Park and Green Belt Management Division and People-to-People International Shinhan High School Chapter, were waiting with gloves and trash bags, ready to get started.
In addition to picking up trash, there was also a need to help build a nicer walking trail, which required some of the volunteers to carry stone and shale, which were leveled out by other helpers. This was used to provide better traction for those who walk the trail on a regular basis.

Lmao k so I was not home alone, but I finished my homework and I put on an old summer shirt & some pajamas and took my lovely camera into the bathroom ;)

? Juvenile male - white breast?
The Magnificient Frigate Bird (Fregata magnificens) and Great Frigate bird (Fregata minor) are similar.
Differences are described at:
eebweb.arizona.edu/courses/galapagos/expert%20topics%2020...(bonine)/Tollefson_Frigatebirds.pdf
Great frigatebirds are
difficult to distinguish from magnificent frigate birds. A table of differences follows:
Great frigatebird Males - Brown band across wings
Magnificent frigatebird Males -No brown bands
Great frigatebird Females - White feathers on chin, throat, and breast
Magnificent frigatebird Females
White on throat and breast only
Great frigatebird -Red eye ring
Magnificent frigatebird- Blue eye ring
Juveniles
(1 yr)
Great frigatebird -White head with some rusty color on it
Magnificent frigatebird -White head

The Magnificent Frigatebird (Fregata magnificens) was sometimes previously known as Man O'War, reflecting its rakish lines, speed, and aerial piracy of other birds.
It is widespread in the tropical Atlantic, breeding colonially in trees in Florida, the Caribbean and Cape Verde Islands. It also breeds along the Pacific coast of the Americas from Mexico to Ecuador including the Galapagos Islands.
It has occurred as a vagrant as far from its normal range as the Isle of Man, Denmark, Spain, England, and British Columbia.
The Magnificent Frigatebird is 100 cm (39 inches) long with a 215 cm (85 inch) wingspan. Males are all black with a scarlet throat pouch which is inflated like a balloon in the breeding season. Although the feathers are black, the scapular feathers produce a purple iridescence when they reflect sunlight. Females are black, but have a white breast and lower neck sides, a brown band on the wings and a blue eye ring. Immature birds have a white head and underparts.
This species is very similar to the other frigatebirds and is similarly sized to all but the Lesser Frigatebird. However, it lacks a white axillary spur, and juveniles show a distinctive diamond-shaped belly patch.
The Magnificent Frigatebird is silent in flight, but makes various rattling sounds at its nest.
This species feeds mainly on fish, and also attacks other seabirds to force them to disgorge their meals. Frigatebirds never land on water, and always take their food items in flight.
It spends days and nights on the wing, with an average ground speed of 10 km/hour, covering 223±208 km before landing. They alternately climb in thermals, to altitudes occasionally as high as 2500 m, and descend to near the sea surface (Chastel et al. 2003). The only other bird known to spend days and nights on the wing is the Common Swift.
A scientific study that examined genetic and morphological variation in Magnificent Frigatebirds found both expected, and also highly unexpected results: firstly—as predicted by the flight capacity of the species—the authors found signatures of high gene flow across most of the distribution range. This included evidence of recent gene flow among Pacific and Atlantic localities, likely across the Isthmus of Panama. This geological formation is a strong barrier to movement in most tropical seabirds. However, the same study also found that the Magnificent Frigatebird on the Galapagos Islands is genetically and morphologically distinct. Based on this study, the Galapagos population has not been exchanging any genes with their mainland counterparts for several hundred thousand years.[1]
Given these findings, the Galapagos population of this tropical seabird may be its own genetically distinct species warranting a new conservation status. This small population of genetically unique Magnificent Frigatebirds is a vulnerable population. Any catastrophic event or threats by humans could wipe out the approximate 2,000 Magnificent Frigatebirds that nest on the Galapagos Islands. Magnificent Frigatebirds are currently classified as Least Concern (LC)' by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, but the Proceedings of the Royal Society paper recommends that, because of the genetic uniqueness of those on the Galápagos, this status be revisited.
