![]() 2.2 2005–2007: Some Hearts and breakthrough.Outside of music, Underwood has ventured into fashion and writing, releasing her fitness clothing line CALIA by Carrie in 2015 and the New York Times best-selling fitness and lifestyle book Find Your Path in 2020. Time listed her as one of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2014, while Forbes declared her the most successful American Idol winner. Billboard named her the top female country artist of the 2000s and 2010s and Some Hearts the top country album of the 2000s. Her accolades include seven Grammy Awards, 12 Billboard Music Awards, 17 American Music Awards, five Guinness World Records, 15 Academy of Country Music Awards and inductions into the Hollywood Walk of Fame and the Grand Ole Opry. ![]() She is the sixth highest-certified female artist and the highest-certified female country artist of all time on the RIAA's Top Artists (Digital Singles) ranking, and the female artist with the most number-one entries on the Billboard Country Airplay chart, with 16. Underwood has sold 70 million records worldwide. She released her first Christmas project, My Gift, in 2020, and her first gospel collection, My Savior, in 2021. With her sixth album, Cry Pretty (2018), she became the only woman to top the Billboard 200 with four country albums, and had both the biggest week for any album by a woman in 2018. Her fifth studio album, Storyteller (2015), made her the only country artist to have all studio albums reach either numbers one or two on the Billboard 200 chart. ![]() Underwood's first compilation, Greatest Hits: Decade #1 (2014), spawned the crossover single " Something in the Water". She achieved the second best-selling release by a woman in 2012 and won a Grammy Award with her fourth album, Blown Away (2012). Her third studio album, Play On (2009), was preceded by the single " Cowboy Casanova", which had one of the biggest single-week upward movements on the Hot 100. The next studio album, Carnival Ride (2007), had one of the biggest opening weeks of all time by a female artist and won two Grammy Awards. She won three Grammy Awards for the album, including Best New Artist. Her debut album, Some Hearts (2005), was bolstered by the successful crossover singles " Jesus, Take the Wheel" and " Before He Cheats", becoming the best-selling solo female debut album in country music history. Underwood's debut single, " Inside Your Heaven", made her the only country artist to debut at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and the only solo country artist in the 2000s to have a number-one song on the Hot 100. She rose to prominence after winning the fourth season of American Idol in 2005. He has also acted in a variety of movies and television shows, most notably the title roles in Kenny Rogers as The Gambler and the MacShayne series as well as his appearance on The Muppet Show.Carrie Marie Underwood (born March 10, 1983) is an American singer and songwriter. Remaining a popular entertainer around the world, the following year he completed a tour of the United Kingdom and Ireland, telling BBC Radio 2 DJSteve Wright his favourite hit was "The Gambler". The first single from the album, "I Can't Unlove You," was also a sizable chart hit. Later success includes the 2006 album release, Water & Bridges, an across the board hit, that hit the Top 5 in the Billboard Country Albums sales charts, also charting in the Top 15 of the Billboard 200. He has received numerous such awards as the AMAs, Grammys, ACMs and CMAs, as well as a lifetime achievement award for a career spanning six decades in 2003. He was voted the "Favorite Singer of All-Time" in a 1986 joint poll by readers of both USA Today and People. Two of his albums, The Gambler and Kenny, are featured in the poll of "The 200 Most Influential Country Albums Ever". Though he has been most successful with country audiences, he has charted more than 120 hit singles across various music genres, topped the country and pop album charts for more than 200 individual weeks in the United States alone and has sold over 100 million records worldwide, making him one of the best-selling artists of all time. Kenneth Donald " Kenny" Rogers (born August 21, 1938) is an American singer-songwriter, photographer, record producer, actor, entrepreneur and author, and member of the Country Music Hall of Fame. ![]() Meanwhile, Knuckles (with the full Master Emerald) spots Sonic coming out of a portal. Tails is so riled up that, in a burst of anger, he defeats the Doctor. Just before the pod exploded, Sonic also considered the possibility of using the fake Chaos Emerald to escape via Chaos Control, due to it having similar wavelengths to an actual Chaos Emerald.Īll Tails, Amy and Eggman can see is a capsule blowing up, so they presume Sonic was killed in the vicinity. Before being launched out, Sonic encourages Tails to stop Eggman, and tells Amy to take care of herself. Unfortunately for Sonic, Eggman anticipated the likelihood that one of them had the fake emerald, and after tricking Tails into admitting that Sonic had the fake emerald, Eggman then shot Sonic out of an escape capsule that was going to explode in the middle of space. Sonic, who has a fake Chaos Emerald, makes it to the central control room. Amy gets kidnapped by Eggman and demands the last emerald in exchange. He destroys the engine, so it's up to Sonic now. Meanwhile, in Space Colony ARK, Tails is heading for the engine of the Eclipse Cannon. He defeats Rouge and gets the rest of the Emerald. Knuckles jumps ship and lands on a small planet and finds the pieces he lost, leaving Sonic, Tails, and Amy screaming on the ship which then crash lands into the ARK. Knuckles thinking quickly takes control of the ship causing it to spin out of control. Sonic remarks that only the Master Emerald pieces were inside there. In all the excitement of the space ship, the cargo bay opens releasing the pieces of the Master Emerald Knuckles had collected. As soon as he is defeated, they blast off in the rocket. Eggman appears and summons the Egg Golem, which Sonic has to take care of. Knuckles defeats King Boom Boo, the king of ghosts. Knuckles then has to find three keys to get into the rocket room. Sonic breaks through the security system. Eggman's "secret" base inside the pyramid. Sonic, Knuckles, Tails, and Amy then head for Dr. Tails chases down the President, then he and Sonic tell the President about the situation they are in. He later pops out of a manhole beside Tails, who is talking to Sonic and Amy over a phone on loudspeaker. Meanwhile, Knuckles finds the last three pieces he can find of the Master Emerald in the Aquatic Mine. He eventually finds Sonic and escapes the military. ![]() He has to find Sonic, tell the President and escape the military all before it is too late. Later, Tails discovers Space Colony ARK and the massive power of the Eclipse Cannon. A timer on screen appears saying 24 hours until mass destruction. Suddenly half of ARK comes off, revealing a long pointer called the ' Eclipse Cannon' which shoots out a powerful beam and destroys half of the moon. ![]() When they get back, Eggman is on televisions everywhere and it is revealed he is being taped from a space-station named "Space Colony, ARK". Sonic soon discovers the jungle is going to explode and leaves just in time. Meanwhile, Sonic gets weary, jumps off the missile, and lands on a small island in a vast jungle. Knuckles leaves Pumpkin Hill, and heads for the Aquatic Mine. There he finds three more pieces of the Master Emerald. Knuckles leaves Wild Canyon, and heads for Pumpkin Hill. Then Amy frees Sonic from his cell, and Sonic escapes on a missile. The next day Miles "Tails" Prower comes to Prison Island in search of Sonic, rescuing Amy Rose from Dr. Knuckles finds the first three pieces in Wild Canyon. Knuckles and Rouge have a hunt for the pieces of the Master Emerald. Eggman tries to steal the Master Emerald, but Knuckles stops him in his path by breaking the Master Emerald into pieces. Shadow proceeds to use the emerald to transport to a different location, and Sonic is arrested.Īt the same time, Knuckles the Echidna and a mysterious character named Rouge the Bat are fighting over who owns the Master Emerald. Sonic realizes that the military is mistaking him for Shadow. After he destroys a military mech, he encounters a near look-alike of himself named Shadow the Hedgehog who has stolen a Chaos Emerald from the bank a while earlier. Suddenly the pilot starts shouting "What?! The hedgehog is gone! He's taking out everyone aboard!" At that moment, Sonic the Hedgehog jumps out of the helicopter, rips off a piece of the wing to use as a snowboard, and then jumps off. This story begins with a military helicopter (Sigma-Alpha 2) flying over the city with Sonic being captured aboard it. Spoiler warning: Plot, ending details or any kind of information follow.

Soundtracking this Z-list snogfest was the sweet, summery ditty Wish I, from Jem, who'd scored her first Top 10 with They earlier that year.ĭespite the show being panned by critics, the theme managed to reach Number 24, although you could argue it was the kiss of death for Jem – she's not made the Top 40 since. Jem: Wish I – Celebrity Love IslandĬompelling, cringeworthy and mercifully brief, Celebrity Love Island was the 2005 show that saw famous people shack up together on a remote, sunkissed resort in the hope that the absence of much else to do would persuade them to get off with each other. Can We Fix It? was quite the phenomenon: it was the Official Christmas Number 1 of 2000, and has sold over a million copies! Bob, voiced by comedian Neil Morrissey, wasn't done there, either – he had another chart-topper with a cover of Mambo No.5. It was no surprise then, when popular kids' TV character Bob the Builder hit the top with the theme from his very own show. Comedians, cartoon characters, school choirs – you name it, Number 1 is within your reach. The UK is famous for its sense of humour when it comes to the Official Singles Chart. ![]() Check out the full chart run for I'll Be There For You here. So popular was the song that it was re-released two years later and re-entered the Top 10. Interestingly, in the original pilot for the show, R.E.M’s equally □ Shiny Happy People was the theme. ![]() I'll Be There For You reached Number 3 in 1995 but the Rembrandts couldn't outlive the show – they broke up pretty quickly. The characters were arguably the most annoying, privileged, clueless people ever to exist, but we loved them all the same. ![]() The Rembrandts: I’ll Be There For You – Friendsįor 10 loooong years, every episode of the world's most successful sitcom kicked off with this unforgettable tune. It shot to the Top 5 faster than Dot Cotton can get through a packet of 20 B&H, peaking at Number 4. The thing is, it was actually the EastEnders theme tune with Anita singing some, um, rather hastily put together lyrics over the top. Demand for anything from its stars was high, so leading lady Anita Dobson, who played boozy, lovable pub landlady Angie Watts, thought she might as well bung out a single. We'd quite like to see Casualty legend Charlie Fairhead showing us all his moves to this version of the theme – for Children In Need maybe? Anita Dobson: Anyone Can Fall In Love – EastEndersīack in 1985, EastEnders was all anyone could talk about. Not a TV theme in the strictest sense – you never heard this version booming out over the titles before another hour of people falling off ladders on a Saturday evening – this 2000 chart-topper owed more than a nod to the nation's favourite hospital drama Casualty. Oxide & Neutrino: Bound 4 Da Reload – Casualty Phantom Planet's aptly titled California – you can see what they did there, right? – hit Number 9 in 2002. Remember The OC, that show about beautifully toothed, immaculately groomed American teens who all looked amazing but were in fact monumental disasters of the highest order? While the on-screen shenanigans of characters Ryan, Marissa, Seth and Summer might've been enough to put you off setting foot in California for ever, it didn't deter you from buying its theme tune. We look back at some of the legends from your living room that have broken out of the box and made their way into the Official Singles Chart. Most songs have to jostle for space on the radio among scores of other potential hits, but for some chart hits, all they had to do was turn up at the beginning and end of a TV show. ![]() The safety and efficacy of vaccinating persons who have mild illnesses have been documented ( 8-11). The decision to administer or delay vaccination because of a current or recent acute illness depends on the severity of symptoms and etiology of the condition. The presence of a moderate or severe acute illness with or without a fever is a precaution to administration of all vaccines ( Table 4-1). However, a vaccination might be indicated in the presence of a precaution if the benefit of protection from the vaccine outweighs the risk for an adverse reaction. In general, vaccinations should be deferred when a precaution is present. ![]() A person might experience a more severe reaction to the vaccine than would have otherwise been expected however, the risk for this happening is less than the risk expected with a contraindication. PrecautionsĪ precaution is a condition in a recipient that might increase the risk for a serious adverse reaction, might cause diagnostic confusion, or might compromise the ability of the vaccine to produce immunity (e.g., administering measles vaccine to a person with passive immunity to measles from a blood transfusion administered up to 7 months prior) ( 7). Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID) disease and a history of intussusception are both contraindications to the receipt of rotavirus vaccines ( 6). Persons who experienced encephalopathy within 7 days after administration of a previous dose of pertussis-containing vaccine not attributable to another identifiable cause should not receive additional doses of a vaccine that contains pertussis ( 4, 5). Because of the theoretical risk to the fetus, women known to be pregnant generally should not receive live, attenuated virus vaccines ( 4). Severely immunocompromised persons generally should not receive live vaccines ( 3). However, certain conditions are commonly misperceived as contraindications (i.e., are not valid reasons to defer vaccination). A vaccine should not be administered when a contraindication is present for example, MMR vaccine should not be administered to severely immunocompromised persons ( 1). Because the majority of contraindications are temporary, vaccinations often can be administered later when the condition leading to a contraindication no longer exists. ContraindicationsĬontraindications (conditions in a recipient that increases the risk for a serious adverse reaction) to vaccination are conditions under which vaccines should not be administered. ![]() Screening is facilitated by consistent use of screening questionnaires, which are available from certain state vaccination programs and other sources (e.g., the Immunization Action Coalition external icon ). Persons who administer vaccines should screen patients for contraindications and precautions to the vaccine before each dose of vaccine is administered ( Table 4-1). National standards for pediatric vaccination practices have been established and include descriptions of valid contraindications and precautions to vaccination ( 2). Major changes to the best practice guidance in this section include 1) enhancement of the definition of a “precaution” to include any condition that might confuse diagnostic accuracy and 2) recommendation to vaccinate during a hospitalization if a patient is not acutely moderately or severely ill.

While Reforged runs in a native 1920×1080 resolution, the UI is still in the classic 4:3 ratio, so it sits in the lower third of the screen but doesn’t reach the edges of the screen. All of the audio, as far as I can tell, remains exactly the same. Every unit in the game has had a facelift. Build and unit icons have been updated, as has the look of certain buildings. The art design finds a home somewhere between realism and the smooth-edged WOW styleguide, while still evoking the unique look and feel of the original. Visually, everything has received a lovely fresh coat of paint. Further, the Save Replay button appears in the post-match carnage report, but it doesn’t actually work yet. You’ll have to sit on anything you make for the time being. The editor can be used to create custom maps right now, but you can’t actually play them yet. In the week since, Blizzard has added the Undead race and the game’s beloved map editor. The beta went live with a small amount of content: 1v1 and 2v2 PvP, five maps and two races - human and orc. Warcraft III Reforged‘s closed beta began shortly before BlizzCon. I still remember where I was the first time I heard someone call it “Dota.” Early access The most popular of these was called Defence of the Ancients, the battle arena mode that became a LAN party staple. If this game loop sounds familiar, there’s a good reason: Modders and mappers seized on Warcraft III, creating original modes built around the hero mechanic. But the reward was a crucial, potentially game-winning edge over that opponent. The risk, of course, was running into your enemy before either of you were ready and taking losses. It also encouraged base expansion and establishing multiple income streams. Doing so netted you XP and item drops that could modify your hero’s base stats. The level system encouraged players to push out, explore the map and wipe out minor enemies called creeps. Heroes could be levelled up, accessing new or upgraded abilities as the match wore on. They made for strategies that were less about building massive armies and more about smaller, smartly assembled platoons. Heroes helped separate Warcraft III from its sister series, StarCraft. It wanted to shake RTS players out of their comfort zones. Any good RTS player goes into a match with a plan, but Warcraft III wanted more from you. The trade-off is that they hit much harder when deployed correctly. Warcraft III‘s units are more expensive and more resource-hungry overall, meaning you can only afford to build smaller forces. In those games, units are part of a larger force, a multifaceted war machine built for invading enemy territory and taking ground. There is a greater sense of value per unit than in a game like StarCraft or Command & Conquer. Warcraft, as all RTS games are, was about sound time and economic management. The RTS genre may have a faint pulse after all. To see Blizzard return to Warcraft III after all these years is heartening. The introduction of hero units, named characters more powerful than a typical soldier, made it unique within the genre. ![]() A natural evolution of the real-time strategy games that birthed the franchise, Warcraft III turned the genre on its ear. Warcraft III has loomed large in my mind ever since its launch in 2002. ![]() Then there is So Many Minis, in which several minis walk around at the same time, but instead of placing tiles, you move tiles around. It's a mode where you have to think a lot before you start your mini. It's a lot less stressful but is actually a lot harder than Main Event. All the tiles are already there, and are always the same. Mario's Main Event is what I've just been talking about. It's not chance, and it's always possible. Yes, the tiles coming into the pipe are randomised, but in such a way that must place them later on down your path. There are also even more ways to die, but you never feel unfairly treated. The tiles come from the pipe, and if it fills up, you die. It's a stressful, panicky, but incredibly fun game. So many ways to die! Minis on the Move is somewhat different from mario vs donkey kong titles in that you must place tiles in a 3D environment So many ways to die! Minis on the Move is somewhat different from mario vs donkey kong titles in that you must place tiles in a 3D environment using the touchscreen to create a path for the mini. ![]() In my opinion, the high difficulty only adds to the fun factor and replay value, so it's a plus. The difficulty is the main reason why there has been a generally mixed reaction to this game, but I assure you that the game itself is so engrossing and deep that you will hardly mind. The main game is highly entertaining, but I will warn you, the difficulty does ramp up considerably after the 12th or 13th level, so only puzzle game enthusiasts should consider buying this. They also provide incentive to collect the mario coins included in each level in the main game, which unlock additional modes and levels for these minigames. The minigames included in Minis on the Move aren't anything to write home about, but they're fun in short bursts, and they provide a decent diversion from the main game. there is even a popularity meter next to the level you created so you can gauge how many people are playing it, which I think adds to the replay value significantly. Minis on the Move allows for a simple upload to an online database which takes about 5 seconds. You have the option to create and share your levels in both games, but in Pushmo and Crashmo you had to scan QR codes to give and receive levels, which made sharing them a very disconnected and inconvenient affair. Minis on the Move succeeds where Pushmo and Crashmo failed, at least in the online department. And I absolutely loved both of those games. For fans of Crashmo and Pushmo who are on the fence about buying this, I will tell you this: I am having a more enjoyable time with Minis on For fans of Crashmo and Pushmo who are on the fence about buying this, I will tell you this: I am having a more enjoyable time with Minis on the Move than I have ever had with Pushmo or Crashmo. |
