The Ambition of a kingdom is the overall goal that the Watcher wants the kingdom to achieve by the time it runs out of Quest Points. Depending on how well a kingdom achieves its ambition, a bronze, silver, gold, or platinum medal is earned, adding points to the Watcher Achievement Level and unlocking further ambitions. The "An Eternal Kingdom ambition" was added in patch 1.3. Buying the adventure pack, "The Sims Medieval: Pirates and Nobles", will unlock another new ambition, Peacemaker.
5. Keep it on settings then double click the home button and hold the app then tap the minus button then go back to home then go to the app then your sims have finished there action and even all of the buildings revenue are ready to be collected! You can do this many times as you want. Enjoy! :-)
While playing Sims games of yore, sending your little computer people off to work was a straightforward process: The carpool drove up, and you waved good-bye to your digital self, who then earned simoleans by doing unseen tasks in some unseen work environment. In the Sims 3, you could exert minimal control, but your sims' workday tasks were hidden safely under the hood. The Sims 3: Ambitions changes that. Now, with the addition of professions--as opposed to careers--you no longer need to wait patiently for your sims to return from work before you can set your evil (or altruistic) plans in motion. Work tasks are now integrated into your sims' daily lives, sending you about town to accomplish such tasks as solving mysteries, fighting fires, and capturing ghosts. This expansion adds other goodies to the main game as well, from new hobbies to new public lots. None of these extras are as unexpected or game-changing as the additions made by The Sims 3's first expansion, World Adventures, but you shouldn't sell this expansion short. Ambitions alters the moment-to-moment gameplay in fun and refreshing ways, and Sims fanatics needing more to tinker with in their digital dollhouses will want to pick it up.
Sculpting is a bit safer, and while any given sculpture usually takes more time to complete than a given invention, the resulting art brings in more dough and looks nicer sitting by the pool. This hobby, too, is nicely integrated into the other parts of the game. If you like throwing parties and want to improve your social status, impress your guests with an ice sculpture. Choose your medium--be it clay, wood, or something else--and chip away. You can duplicate previous creations easily, but it's much more fun to set your sim to work on something new, because it's a joy to see what interesting creation might spring forth from the raw materials you start with. Yet whether you spend your day putting out fires and rescuing trapped neighbors, giving your friends and family members a new hairdo, or doing laundry using the newly added washer and dryer appliances, you'll have a smile on your face the entire time. As it turns out, your sims don't always lead lives of blameless bourgeois domesticity, and Ambitions makes a standard workday as enjoyable as you could hope for.
The Sims 3: Ambitions isn't an outwardly dramatic addition to the Sims universe, and technical problems could potentially get in the way of your fun. Yet this is a thoughtful and delightful expansion, full of wit and character, and it gives you even more control over your sims' daily lives. If you enjoy nurturing (or antagonizing) these unintelligible avatars that need to be told to empty their bladders, then adding Ambitions to your games library is a sure way to show off your logic skill.
Allanite Th-U/Pb dating has proved to be a powerful tool to unravel the timing of magmatic and metamorphic processes. Different techniques (ID-TIMS, LA-ICP-MS, SHRIMP/SIMS) and optimized algorithms for the calculation of ages have been concocted over the last 25 years. Major differences concern the correction of age data for the initial common lead incorporated in allanite, which is required to interpret single analyses in terms of geologically meaningful ages. Much like garnet, allanite commonly shows growth zoning. Analytical progress improving the spatial resolution is thus most welcome for dating allanite, as it allows spots in single growth zones to be measured, rather than an average of several growth zones in single grains or worse, over several grains (early ID-TIMS). Regarding the conversion of isotopic data to geological meaningful ages, spot age dating of allanite has developped from two opposite ambitions: (i) Single spot approach: Each analytical spot yields an age, which can be averaged over the same growth zone in order to obtain a more precise age; (ii) Isochron approach: Only groups of single spots analyzed together can reveal a correct age. The main differences between these approaches are the basic assumptions used for the interpretation of the ages. The single spot approach assumes that the the ratios of initial common lead incorporated in allanite is known, whereas for the isochron approach assumes that a single growth zone can be identified and hence only analyses from the same one are employed. We present an approach that combines the two ambitions to date metamorphic allanite: Th-U/Pb-data from LA-ICP-MS spot analysis, EPMA data and results of different imaging techniques are reported. The composition of initial lead incorporated in allanite is estimated from the Tera-Wasserburg and the Th-isochron diagram. Estimates of this initial lead composition in allanite show that the common lead fractions in allanite are variable. Case examples are presented. They show that the combination of standardized chemical maps with the chemical composition of spot analysis bears valuable information on allanite growth mechanism and helps identify the reasons for variable common lead fractions. The improved understanding of allanite growth mechanism allows defining a clear strategy for the calculation of ages based on accurately measured isotope ratios. In addition, the composition of initial lead in allanite can be used to constrain the allanite forming reactions and derive reaction or growth rates based on age dating of successive growth zones. For metamorphic allanite at least, our findings imply that common lead cannot be understood based solely on global lead evolution models or even on a single value for an entire rock sample. Local reactions can lead to local changes in common lead, and these need to be understood for age dating.
