Many of these pictures and ideas are from our Frozen party and a number of them are from the amazing creative minds that have shared their ideas across the internet. It was another really fun party, both to throw and to attend. I’m curious to see what she comes up with next year, this kid is always full of surprises.It’s time to wrap up the Frozen Birthday Party with a few of the extra components that made this party come together. Since the party was at an event play space the fact that it was pouring rain had no bearing on our party plans. The kids had fun, the parents had fun, and most importantly the birthday girl had the best time. I was hesitant but when we found a bag on clearance at Target, how could I say no? The gumballs were a birthday girl selection. But since I wasn’t too worried each bag also had a silver spiral lollipop and two gum balls. I’m hoping that the parents of the kids that attended the party don’t hate me because of all of the candy in the goody bags. ( See, I told you these parents were going to love me!) To add a little sparkle to the table I added miniature glitter snowflake ornaments from the craft store. Until I found an Olaf piñata! Piñatas are super fun and also mean, more candy. I wanted to add Olaf but the birthday girl wasn’t having any part of this idea. Now for the one approved character that isn’t Elsa, Olaf. ![]() Little bit has happily claimed one of each for her personal stash. We all know Hans is super shady so we skipped that one. I didn’t buy them all, but I didn’t leave many for other people. I ran across the entire cast of Tsum Tsum Frozen characters for 50% at Target I grabbed them up for party favors. In her defense she loves cheese balls but only the orange ones, haha.Īnother great find were these Frozen themed Jelly Belly’s! One pack went home in every favor bag. What kid doesn’t love cheese balls? Oh that’s right the birthday girl. White cheddar cheese balls were the food of choice and doubled as “Elsa’s Snowballs”. Making sure not to forget to add sparkle! I made the cupcakes a few days before the party and iced them the night before. Most of our attendees would have already eaten breakfast and since the party was over before lunch I stuck to a quick snack and dessert for the party food. Are these not the cutest? She definitely outdid herself with these cuties! The party was held at an event location in the morning. Since I’m not willing to turn that down I tasked her with putting these adorable build a snowman kits! One went home with each kiddo as part of their goody bags. My mother-in-law asked if there was anything she could help with. First on the list of must haves Elsa plates. ![]() I tried to stick with a few focal pieces and plan the rest of the party around them. Odds were in my favor and they had a plethora of goodies. My first stop online stop was to Oriental Trading to see if they might by chance have anything that would work. This year a classic silver 4, two sided GIANT Elsa balloon, and the round snowflake balloon were the obvious winners. I always love getting fun balloons for the parties. The good news, finding theme related items was fairly easy. She’s so sparkly!”.Ĭue internal mumbling again about how in the world you are going to find only Elsa items. “So, you want a Frozen party with everyone right?”Īlmost 4 year old, “No, just Elsa. What does a busy mom who has a daughter set on an Elsa themed birthday party do when she has no idea her kiddo even liked the movie Frozen?

![]() Interestingly, the deposits do not necessarily result in Alzheimer’s disease - many older people have evidence of extensive amyloid in their brains and do not go on to develop Alzheimer’s. After age 70, one-third of cognitively normal people have amyloid in their brain tissue, according to a February 2022 study. “The people who did not have amyloid plaques did not have this lower brain volume, even if they had severe sleep apneas.”Īmyloid buildup in the brain can start decades before any clinical signs of cognitive decline - as early as the 30s and 40s, experts say. “We found that greater severity of sleep apnea was associated with lower volumes in the hippocampus and in various subregions of the medial temporal lobe,” Rauchs said. However, the loss of volume in the brain only occurred when a person also had signs of beta-amyloid plaques, a hallmark sign of Alzheimer’s disease, the study found. Buried deep in that area is the hippocampus, a complex structure critical for learning, memory encoding and consolidation, and spatial navigation. The medial temporal lobe is an area of the brain essential for memory and recall of facts and events. Here, we provide new original evidence focusing on the medial temporal lobe, a brain region early affected in Alzheimer’s disease,” said lead study author Géraldine Rauchs, a postdoctoral research officer at the National Institute of Health and Medical Research in Caen, France, in an email. “It is more and more acknowledged that this sleep disorder, if untreated, will increase the risk of dementia. People with sleep apnea stop breathing for 10 seconds or more at a time multiple times a night.

What this means is you are able to explore the environment, even when other characters are speaking. The best thing about this however is the fact you always have control over Alex and never get locked into a cinematic. You control Alex with the left stick and get to select your dialogue choices using the face buttons. Yes it’s a basically a walking sim with added talking sections, but to dismiss it for this is to widely miss the mark. It plays like a 2d cross between Everybody’s Gone To The Rapture and a Telltale game. Things quickly take a turn for the spooky when Alex tunes her portable radio into an odd frequency and apparently opens communications with another dimension. Telling the story of teenager Alex, and her four friends, who set out to spend a night drinking and shooting the breeze on an abandoned island. Oxenfree continues this trend of excellence in storytelling and adds a dash of spooky mystery as well. Something the indie scene has excelled in is telling a good story, and tackling issues not generally found in the bigger budget releases. This is something which Oxenfree reminded me of, both as the childhood coming of age story, and the portable radio your carry throughout the game. In reality what this allowed me to do was to tune the TV into just the right frequency to allow me to play Metal Gear Solid, albeit in black and white. ![]() This was a secret adventure for me and felt all spooky and mysterious, like I was somehow playing the system. However what I did have was an old black and white telly with a proper analogue tuning dial. In order to play the game I needed to have a 60hrtz tv, something I didn’t own. Though it may not have exactly the same finesse as its console/PC versions, it's a game that's equally creepy as it is hilarious, and it's an absolute must-buy.Jin PS4 tagged indie / oxenfree / radio / spooky / story-driven by Stevenīack in the day I had a modded PS1, and an import copy of Metal Gear Solid. But Oxenfree is well deserved of its positive reviews and BAFTA nominations. With little action, plenty of rich story, and a lot of walking, things can be a little slow at times. If you're the sort of gamer who doesn't particularly like a ton of narrative, it's likely this won't be for you. Whether you're tapping or holding your finger down to make Alex move, it doesn't always register, and sometimes takes a few attempts to actually get going. By using pieced-together voices, stuttering static, and bassy, horn-like tones, it really does make the experience unsettling once it gets going. Where Oxenfree gets its creep-factor is its audio, which makes perfect sense. A lot of the level design is haunting, but it's also beautiful. Yeah, it's an abandoned navy base - but it doesn't look abandoned, and that's the benefit of using a view with so much negative space. Given that it covers paranormal and supernatural elements, the game manages to avoid cliche pretty darn well. The 2.5D aesthetic used for the game is wonderfully deceptive. Even the smaller decisions effect the way your friends perceive you throughout, and can alter the ending in one way or another. Its use of multiple choice is also a nice factor. Thanks to the excellent writing, top-notch voice acting, interesting characters, and some nicely timed wit, the story itself is enthralling. Of course, it wouldn't be a supernatural mystery game without someone doing something stupid to kick things off, so you end up using your radio and accidentally open up a portal to an alternate world - no biggie.Īfter waking up on a different part of the island, with your friends scattered to the wind and no recollection of the last hour, it's up to you to figure out how to get the eff out of there, pronto.

But when one large US bank acquired a competitor with a substantial geographic overlap, the acquirer suffered unusually high losses among the target company’s customers, rendering the deal unprofitable and exposing the merged entity to a takeover. The acquiring bank assumes that while some customers might leave, cost savings will more than make up for the losses. In retail banking, for example, important cost-based synergies are expected to come from consolidating branch networks. These dis-synergies sometimes result from the disruption of a company’s ability to execute and sometimes directly from efforts to Almost 70 percent of the mergers in our database failed to achieve the synergies expected in this area (Exhibit 1).Īnother common reason for errors in estimating revenues is the failure of most acquirers to account explicitly for the revenue dis-synergies that befall merging companies. Pursued to gain access to a target’s customers, channels, and geographies. ![]() The greatest errors in estimation appear on the revenue side-which is particularly unfortunate, since revenue synergies form the basis of the strategic rationales for entire classes of deals, such as those Wall Street wisdom warns against paying for revenue synergies, and in this case it is right. When applied by an acquisition team chosen for its expertise and its ability to counter gaps in information, these six measures should help buyers avoid the winner’s curse and improve the quality of most of their deals. Additional steps include vetting assumptions about pricing and market share, making better use of benchmarks to deliver cost savings, and forming more realistic assessments of how long it will take to capture synergies. They should also try to anticipate common “dis-synergies” (such as the loss of customers and difficulties reconciling different service terms) and consider raising their estimates of onetime costs. As our database expands, we will continue to deepen our understanding of realized merger synergies and share the insights that emerge.After combing through the data from 160 mergers (so far)-as well as our knowledge of the companies and their industries-we have found six practical measures that executives can take to improve the chance of achieving synergies from acquisitions.įor starters, executives should cast a gimlet eye over estimates of top-line synergies, which we often found to be inflated. To address this challenge, we have used our extensive experience of postmerger integration efforts across a range of industries, geographies, and deal types to set up a database of estimated and realized merger synergies. Fewer still get involved in the postmerger work, when premerger estimates come face-to-face with reality. And external transaction advisers-usually investment banks-are seldom involved in the kind of detailed, bottom-up estimation of synergies that would be needed to develop meaningful benchmarks before a deal. Even highly seasoned buyers rarely capture data systematically enough to improve their estimates for the next deal. To help them assess synergies and set targets, they usually have little data about the target company limited access to its managers, suppliers, channel partners, and customers and insufficient experience. However, it takes only a very small degree of error in estimating these values to cause an acquisition effort to stumble.Īcquirers must undoubtedly cope with an acute lack of information. These synergies can come from economies of scale and scope, best practice, the sharing of capabilities and opportunities, and, often, the stimulating effect of the combination on the individual companies. Thaler, The Winner’s Curse: Paradoxes and Anomalies in Economic Life, Princeton, New Jersey: Princeton University Press, 1992. Our exploration of postmerger integration efforts points to the main source of the winner’s curse: the fact that the average acquirer materially overestimates the synergies a merger will yield. Hans Bieshaar, Jeremy Knight, and Alexander van Wassenaer, “Deals that create value,” The McKinsey Quarterly, 2001 Number 1, pp. ![]() The fact is well established, but the reasons for it are less clear. Indeed, on average, the buyer pays the seller all of the value generated by a merger, in the form of a premium of from 10 to 35 percent of the target company’s preannouncement market value. When companies merge, most of the shareholder value created is likely to go not to the buyer but to the seller. ![]() |
