With support staff working with her on how to focus and visualize her goal, she quickly nailed one. And my 13-year-old, who is a diver and quite flexible, achieved her goal of doing an aerial backflip on the floor mats. She conquered a few fears in a minimal amount of time. My 11-year-old daughter, not the sportiest of kids, had fun climbing and balancing on the beams.

My kids, who range in age from 8 to 13, are varied in their athletic experience. ![]() When we first arrived for the beginners open session, we were greeted by the friendly staff and introduced to TJ Stuart, one of the instructors. While open to adults, too, it offers classes and open gym sessions specifically for children. Open since December, the Southlake location is the first in Texas for the California-based company. I’m probably not the only mom who worries about ambulance rides to the emergency room, and I’m happy to report that safety is a top priority at Tempest. But novices and little ones need trained supervision to learn to make moves and fall correctly, which is where Tempest comes in. There’s also the cool factor of learning some of the moves seen in action-movie sequences. The beauty of parkour and freerunning is that they require little special equipment, appeal to both boys and girls and are great workouts while emphasizing play over exercise. Parkour, developed in France, was derived from military obstacle-course training freerunning adds acrobatics to the formula. The gym, Tempest Freerunning Academy, provides the training to do it all safely. If there were ever “sports” designed for adventurous kids, they would be parkour and freerunning - both use running, climbing and jumping to efficiently get from one point to another. And there are lots and lots of foam pads. ![]() There are ramps and monkey bars and “brick” walls everywhere. Instead, it looks like we’re on a building rooftop surrounded by skyscrapers.

I also realized that when playing with pretend money she was rather cheap and even had a hard time spending too much! It was just a ton of fun and really great for kids. We only got to the 2nd village in the hour trial, but LOVED each minute of it!! I was pretty impressed because it taught my daughter marketing skills, money management and other economic skills. I'm unsure of how many levels there are, but you move on to a bigger village each time. This game has characters that you can "rent/buy" to entertain your customers. ![]() This is by far one of our FAVORITE games!

Go for a walk.ĭon’t talk on the phone and don’t text. ![]() When I did this with the watercolors of J.M.W Turner, I remembered how he would start with a sense of light and space before settling on a subject. ![]() Make note of color combos you love, words that come to mind, and subject matter. Search for an artist online and just look at images. Either use the paper in a mixed media art project or start painting what you pulled together, even if it is just abstract impressions of those source materials. Rip out anything that catches your eye - words, advertisements, patterns. Pick up a magazine you don’t mind sacrificing to the muse. Here is a list of seven ways you can stop feeling uninspired and start feeling like your best artistic self, and in 10 minutes or less. Turner’s works are awe-inspiring because the artist started with movement and power, light and volume, before ever even settling on his subject. (Read on for some more great artist’s block preventers!) From 0 to 100 in Under 10 Minutes J.M.W. Look hard - and see clearly - the colors on my wall, the way textures overlap, and how angles and shapes are interacting in my world. So that’s the first painting tool to fight the blahs. Luckily, the solution for writer’s and artist’s block is the same (and it is the painting tool that is always with us and never fails): get out of my own head and look around! Use my eyes to absorb what is around me and soak in some new juju. When I get ready to paint or draw I want so much to take advantage of the time I have to work on art that my urgency can feel like pressure, causing me to freeze up. “Artist’s block” is just like writer’s block: ideas are half-formed but none of them can be fully realized. But I knew I could get through it because I’d experienced it before, as a writer and as an artist. I wanted to write about the importance of expressing strong feelings in your work, but I couldn’t figure out how to tie it all together. ![]() Closing my eyes and reaching for colors instinctively can result in something beautiful and full of pathos. When I think of gesture and letting go I think of McIver’s work. Recreating cathedral-like spaces within my paintings, I use two dimensions to evoke the third, fourth and beyond resulting in paintings that have a magical realist element.Fight Feeling Blah with This Painting Tool Cardrew I by Beverly McIver. Hockney’s use of multiple perspectives within an artwork and his historical research into lenses have been helpful here.³ To extend an invitation into the scene, single point perspective is ideal, alternatively I’ll use multiple perspectives so that the viewer must roam around the scene with their eyes. I also employ perspective to create the illusion of an enveloping sense of scale. Works by Richard Serra, Claude Monet, David Hockney and Anselm Kiefer have taught me that increasing scale forces a physical involvement and I enjoy using large canvases when possible. I play with the power of colour to effect our emotions, consider light sources, work with scale and vary perspectives. Eager that this joyful experience be passed on to others I look for ways envelop the viewer, transforming them into a participant. This is sheer delight I paint as an expression of my own vitality. ![]() I find their inherent archaic references grounding, painting them gives me a sense of timelessness. Both impress me with their monumental scale, the light filtered through translucent colours and the strong, uplifting verticals. In the forest I always see echos of cathedrals and vice versa. Your test failed to simulate some actions that open the needed window. It’s quite possible that the needed window or control, or some of its parent objects didn’t exist in the system at the needed time. The object didn’t exist at the time TestComplete tried to obtain it. See the description of the VideoRecorder extension for information on how to do this. A possible alternative is to record a video of your test run. You can find these images on the Picture tab of the test log. If the object exists, then, to find the cause of the error, explore properties of the problematic object:īy default, the test engine logs images of the tested application for every simulated test command to help you understand what happened in the application during the test run. If the object does not exist in the application, re-record your test or update its commands to match the tested application. See how it works.Īfter you select the object, the Object Spy will display its properties. If you need to select a hint, menu item or another popup object, use the “Point and fix” mode. You typically select a window or control by dragging the target icon ( ) to it. Use the Object Spy to select the needed object on the screen: ![]() In TestComplete, select Display Object Spy from the Tools toolbar. See instructions for desktop, mobile tests, and web tests that run on your local computer See instructions for desktop, mobile tests, and web tests that run on your local computer For example, earlier test steps have failed and the needed window or control didn’t appear on the screen, the parent object of the target object didn’t exist, the recognition attributes of the object changed, and so on (see the possible reasons below). The “Object Does Not Exist” message indicates that the tested application differs from the state it had during test recording or test creation. Otherwise, it will post the error message to the test log. Depending on whether the self-healing mode is enabled, it either uses the replacement object to continue the test run or posts information on the replacement object to the test log. If applicable, TestComplete will try to find an object similar to the missing one. If the recognition criteria match completely and the object is found, TestComplete executes the test command on it. To do this, it uses the recognition criteria set for the object in the Name Mapping repository. Before running a test command on some object, TestComplete first finds this object in the system. ![]() ![]() TestComplete considers processes, windows, and controls as objects.
