![]() Getting my own issues out of the way allowed room for a more honest critique of these final issues which themselves are commenting on the importance ascribed to endings. ![]() But as I read the final issues last year through a self-constructed lens that this story was ending too quickly and for the wrong reasons I was never going to appreciate what was actually in those pages. Now the fact that Vaughan was able to end this story on his own terms doesn’t insulate it from criticism or prevent it from being an unsatisfactory ending. This forces the us as readers to contend with what is on each page and carefully consider what Vaughan and his collaborators are trying to communicate with their art. There isn’t any more, because they didn’t want there to be more. We have to assume that the thirty issues he and his collaborators decided on contain the full story they wanted to tell. This coupled with sort of thoughtfulness and care that you can see in his work and the time he takes to create it ( Paper Girls and Saga have extended release schedules to allow time for writers and artists to create exactly what what they intend) means that he had the ability to end Paper Girls how and when he wanted to. As books published under the Image label, Vaughan and his co-creators own the rights to the IP they create, and have full creative control of their work. Saga is currently on a hiatus after reaching the issue #54, which Vaughan and Staples have public stated is the hallway point of what will and was always intended to be a 108 issue series. Vaughan also co-writes the popular Image comic Saga with Fiona Staples. These are legitimate concerns for certain properties, but I would have used this argument to fit the narrative I wanted, not examining what the book is saying and or considering that this narrative can not be properly attributed to Paper Girls.īrian K. A review of those issues written last August would have most likely been some nonsense about artists comprising their work for commercial reasons and how the sudden interesting in comic books as IP (intellectual property) resources for studios and streaming networks is compromising the work writers and artists are doing now. ![]() With that extratextual baggage heaped upon it, how could I have found those final five issue have been anything other than disappointing, which I did. This coupled with the news that Vaughan was starting to work on TV series for Amazon ( Y: The Last Man and Paper Girls) and it seemed to me that this story was ending too soon and for the wrong reasons. News then broke during the October to March break between issues #25 and #26 that the the next five issues would be the final arc of the series. Their separation was a new and welcomed diversion to the story thus far, a chance to see how each of them has developed as an individual and to appreciate he strength of their group. They’ve talked to their future selves, fought gigantic worms, run from prehistoric humans, and survived gigantic mech battles, but they’ve always done so together. Vaughan, Chiang, Wilson/ Image ComicsĪt the end of issue #25 (released October 2018) the four paper girls (Tiffany, Erin, Mac, and KJ) have been thrown forward and backward in both time and space separating them (for one of the few times in the series) in a way where their reunion isn’t a trivial matter. They are asking us not to focus on the ending or our disappointment that there isn’t more, but to appreciate that it happened at all. I have greatly enjoyed reading and writing and think about this book over the last five years and these final issues are asking us to remember and reflect on that. Paper Girls #2 is the first comic book I bought and Paper Girls #21 is the one of the first comic books I wrote about. It would have ignored the fact that this is the story the creators wanted to tell, and as well as how the book was asking us to consider it. Anything I would have written after that first reading would have been cynical and uncritical. I didn’t mean to put off writing about the ending of Paper Girls for for year, but I think that procrastination has been useful. It’s the idea that followed me through my second reading of this final arc about a year after the the final issue was published, and it stayed with me as I started to put down words describing what I found in these final pages. I’ve run plenty of other ideas around trying to say something more creative or original but this is the idea I keep coming back to. The best or most succinct idea I’ve been able to come up with to start this review/essay is by stating the obvious, “ending are hard.” The fact that this is the best I can come up with says a lot more about me than it does the final arc of Paper Girls, but it is also not a trivial idea.

![]() Restart the ncpa_listener service on the Windows machine. Edit your ncpa.cfg file to look something like the following:Įnable the nrdp handler in the section of your config: Follow the steps, outlined in the "NRDP In Nagios Core" section of the NRDP - Overview document. In Nagios Core, you would need to install and configure NRDP manually. %HOSTNAME%|CPU Usage|30 = cpu/percent -warning 60 -critical 80 -aggregate avg An example of a CPU check that would be performed every 30 seconds is below: %HOSTNAME%|Process Count = processes -warning 300 -critical 400īy default, passive checks are ran on 5 minute intervals, however with NCPA 2 you can now define a check interval in seconds by appending |interval to the left side of the passive check definition. %HOSTNAME%|Memory Usage = memory/virtual -warning 80 -critical 90 -units Gi %HOSTNAME%|CPU Usage = cpu/percent -warning 60 -critical 80 -aggregate avg Use the following outline for passive checks to send to the NRDP server of your choice. Add checks to your ncpa configurationĪdd a new NCPA configuration file to the directory located in the base NCPA installation directory. However, it would be a good idea to take a closer look at your configuration just in case. If you installed on Windows and set up NRDP during the install process then you will already have a configuration set up. By default in new installs of NCPA 2, no passive handler is configured. In order for passive checks to work, you have to configure your passive service to actually send the checks. This will tell Nagios to perform active checks and will create a host called "NCPA 2 Host" with checks for CPU Usage, Memory Usage, and Process Count. Replace the -t 'mytoken' with your own token. For this example we will create a config file called ncpa.cfg with the following defined:Ĭheck_command check_ncpa!-t 'mytoken' -P 5693 -M system/agent_versionĬheck_command check_ncpa!-t 'mytoken' -P 5693 -M cpu/percent -w 20 -c 40 -q 'aggregate=avg'Ĭheck_command check_ncpa!-t 'mytoken' -P 5693 -M memory/virtual -w 50 -c 80 -u GĬheck_command check_ncpa!-t 'mytoken' -P 5693 -M processes -w 150 -c 200 You can create the checks in a config file in /usr/local/nagios/etc. The command below will allow us to pass most of the arguments in with $ARG1$, allowing it to be more dynamic.Ĭommand_line $USER1$/check_ncpa.py -H $HOSTADDRESS$ $ARG1$ usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_ncpa.py -VĬreating new command, host and service definitions for monitoring the Windows machine Create the check command definitionĬreate the check_ncpa command in your configuration files for Nagios Core, normally they are located in /usr/local/nagios/etc - you may have a commands.cfg file you will want to put this command in. To verify the version of the check_ncpa.py plugin, run the following command from the command line: Note: If you have a different path to the nagios plugins directory, you will need to modify the last command. Mv check_ncpa.py /usr/local/nagios/libexec Run the following commands from the command line on your Nagios server: The steps below will cover some basic information on how to install the check_ncpa.py plugin, create a new command, host, and service definitions in Nagios Core. NCPA can do both kinds of checks, so it's up to you to choose. Passive checks run on the client side and send the check results to Nagios Core for processing. If you have a lot of checks and want to move some of the load or you have a system that sometimes drops connections, you might want to use a passive check. Active checks are ran using a plugin on the Nagios Core side, which will put most of the load on the server. There are two types of checks you can use. Once you've decided what to monitor, you can choose how to monitor it. There are many more endpoints, but you can read the help documentation to see more options. For this example we will monitor the following using only NCPA built-ins: This could include your own custom plugins - or just data that NCPA can get itself. ![]() Knowing what you want to monitor will help you figure out what sort of checks you will need NCPA to perform.

GameSpot went further, criticising the game's lack of pacing, lousy boss fights and "shallow, repetitive combat". IT Reviews said that "the dodgy controls combined with some awkward camera viewpoints, plus the overly repetitive levels, slowly sap much of the joy from the experience". However, many sources were considerably more scathing. Some critics were more positive about it, such as Games Master magazine in the UK, which called it "a likeable, if slight, slice of gory Brothers Grimm gaming".

The "half-show/half-installation" caught the attention of Angelakos' friend and musical acquaintance Ian Hultquist, who approached Michael about the possibility of starting a band to play the music live. Shortly thereafter, Angelakos gave the first Passion Pit performance, which consisted of himself and a laptop singing the EP's songs in front of some rear-screen projections in the basement of his school to approximately 15 of his friends. Ian Hultquist is also featured on Manners performing guitar on songs such as "Make Light" and "Moth's Wings." And then there is the in-concert Passion Pit, a loose yet tightly calibrated ensemble who turn Angelakos' musical studio blueprints into a cathartic live experience.Īngelakos was 20 years old when Passion Pit took its first hold on his psyche in the form of a multi-song "Valentine" to his then-girlfriend, recorded in his bedroom on readily available ad hoc technology including the built-in microphone on his laptop.Īfter signing with indie label Frenchkiss, he opted to add more recordings that had been made shortly after the he self-released the collection of songs - including the signature track "Sleepyhead" - to his dorm room set, releasing it officially as the lo-fi EP Chunk of Change. Passion Pit is a two-fold entity sharing a single essence: there's in-the-studio Passion Pit, essentially comprised of Michael writing, designing, and constructing intricate cathedrals of sound, and Nathan Donmoyer handling live percussion and programming. ![]() tight integration with touch ID to enable macOS and iOS users to unlock 1Password.To keep up with this growing security challenge in an ever-expanding remote world, 1Password has embraced various forms of passwordless authentication: ![]() Fortuitously, 1Password offers a lot of benefits for businesses ranging from small teams to large Fortune 100 companies.
