Destiny 2 on Saturday. Bungie gave the old raid a new coat of paint, and many teams including my own dove in to conquer the challenge within the first 24 hours. But even though we all knew the fights from the original game, it didn’t stop me and a host of my peers from participating in my favorite Destiny raid-race experience: chart-making.
Destiny raids are like a cooperative puzzle. Players normally need to communicate information about something that only they can see to someone else who has to apply that information. Shouting “the thing to your left” doesn’t usually cut it, especially in a day-one scenario, when Bungie pumps the difficulty up to 11.
It’s the 20th anniversary of Shrek, so we celebrated as any other would do: by luring all our coworkers into a Zoom call and forcing them to draw Shrek. That’s team bonding for you!
The beloved ogre has loomed large over pop culture for the past 20 years, but what does it really mean to capture Shrek’s essence? How can one portray the multilayered character on a simple piece of paper? We’re not sure, but we sure as Shrek tried our best.
Whose Shrek is the Shrekest? Please parse through the selections below and carefully review each artist’s statement in order to determine the one Shrek to rule them all.
Lehigh Hanson partners with Fortera to reduce carbon emissions 15 March 2021
North America s Lehigh Hanson (HeidelbergCement) and Fortera Inc have announced a collaboration project to reduce emissions from Portland cement production.
The two companies will work together to construct and operate a small commercial plant at Lehigh s cement facility in northern California. The plant will capture CO
2 from the kiln exhaust and convert it into a cementitious material. This can then be blended with Portland cement and used by ready-mix concrete producers as an SCM or used as a 100 per cent cementitious binder for preformed materials such as bricks, blocks and precast structures.

There was some internal debate about what counted as a power up in the Mario universe. The Mushroom, of course. But what about Kuribo’s Shoe? Is it a power up? A vehicle? What about all the helpless souls Mario possess in
Mario Odyssey? Would the F.L.U.D.D. from
Super Mario Sunshine count? These are the kinds of questions nobody wants to answer. So we didn’t!
Please enjoy our wide range of Mario power-ups. Please read the artists’ statement’s to really get in the minds of the creators, and then let us know your favorites (all of them, right?) in the comments.
