If youre getting ready for the glorious return of the Anemo Archon Venti when Genshin Impact 1.4 releases, youll want to get all of his Ascension materials soon. One of them is a flower, the Cecilia. Heres where to find Cecilia in Genshin Impact.

There are only two characters in the game currently who need Cecilia as Ascension material: Venti and Albedo. You also need them to Craft Anemo Resonance Stones, which come in handy for when youre down to the last few Anemoculus.

Cecilia is a Mondstadt Local Speciality, so you can only find them in Mondstadt. Theres really only one place they tend to grow, so you wont need to do much scouring. You can find them all over Starsnatch Cliff and Thousand Winds Temple, where it looks like a big triangle on the map.

They grow in clusters of three or four, so be sure to grab them all. You can find them all over the mountain, with many of them at the edge of the cliff. Be sure to talk to the NPC who stands up there, as youll get some for free the first time you do.

If you have Klee, she can display the locations of Mondstadt Specialties. Your mini-map will display a hand icon when shes in your party.

These also count towards the Battle Pass objective where you can find 100 Mondstadt Specialties each week. They respawn two server resets (about 48 hours) after you pick them, so be sure to mark their locations on your map for easy harvesting.

Besides foraging, you can also buy them from Flora at the flower shop in Mondstadt. She has five Cecilia for sale every day for 1,000 Mora each.

If youre using Cecilia to Ascend Venti or Albedo, youll need a total of 168 to get them to their final Ascension.

Wade Hooper has been powerlifting for nearly 35 years, individually and teaching the sport he loves.

I got started back in 1987 at Bolton High School, we had two lifters on the team, it pushed me to stay with the sport and head to Louisiana Tech to lift under the great Dr. Billy Jack Talton, my lifting took off then, said Hooper.

Hooper is the powerlifting coach at Dutchtown High, and he will be taking his girls and boys team to state at the University of Louisiana at Monroe this weekend. Hooper was a collegiate champion in 1992 and 1993, he went on to be a Junior National Champion in 1992, a US champion from 1195-2008 and a World Champion in 1996, 2004, 2006 and 2011. He is the first lifter to ever win an IPF Junior, Open and Master World Title.

After graduating from Louisiana Tech, Hooper went on to coach at the high school level at West Ouachita High, before moving to Texas A&M and coaching at the college level.

I have been fortunate to learn from great coaches that have influenced me, Dr Billy Jack Talton and Jeff Douglas, said Hooper.

Hooper has now taken everything he learned from his mentors and has used that to coach lifters at Dutchtown High.

I moved back to Louisiana in 2003 and was hired by Dutchtown to teach math, it wasnt until 2019, when one of my students, Hayden Willis, convinced me to start a team at Dutchtown."

Willis was an outstanding lifter at Dutchtown, and he certainly had some influence from Hooper. Powerlifting has evolved into such a popular sport, names that come to mind is Steve Baronich (Woodlawn, Episcopal and Ascension Catholic), Tony Paine (Assumption), Joseph Ryan (Denham Springs) and a young coach, Josh Langlois, at Ascension Catholic.

Wade Hooper is one of the greatest lifters in the history of the sport, he is the best kept secret in powerlifting, he taught me while at Dutchtown and I had no idea he was a world champion, I am excited for him, he can take his lifters to the next level, said Josh Langlois of Ascension Catholic.

A sport that has grown so much in the last 30 years is now popular as the traditional high school sports, schools now have large teams with many lifters.

The elevation of the sport has to be credited to so many individuals, people from all backgrounds can compete, said Hooper.

Hooper and the Griffins head to state with momentum as several lifters qualified to compete at state in hopes of winning a state championship in D1.

Zane Rhodes in the 242-pound class has a shot to win state, his total is 1480; on the girls side, Mia Gonzales with a 900-pound total in the 165-pound class and Elizabeth Latiolais with a total of 725 pounds in the 148 pound class, we are excited about all of our lifters, said Hooper.

State will be very competitive with so many top schools competing include the normal schools and now several newcomers due to the popularity of the sport. The girls will compete on Friday and the boys on Saturday.

Hooper is certainly proud of his accomplishments, but I can see its all about the kids now. My main objective is to always focus on form and technique, I try to motivate them by showing them the passion that I have for the sport, said Hooper.

Hooper is known for his strength from his days in high school, college and national competitions, he should be known for the strength he instills in his lifters, they are the ones that are gaining physical strength and knowledge, being mentored by a local legend.

GONZALES - The owners of a private bus company that provides transportation for several schools in the Baton Rouge and New Orleans area face criminal charges after police found many of the business's insurance certificates were fraudulent.

Louisiana State Police's insurance fraud office was first tipped off after one of the buses owned by Scholars First LLC, which is based out of Gonzales, was involved in minor crash in Orleans Parish in 2019. The two drivers involved exchanged insurance information, but it was later discovered the certificate given by a Scholars First employee was fake.

The phony insurance card led State Police to investigate Scholars First, and investigators asked the company to hand over certificates of liability insurance. Police reached out to the insurance companies on each certificate provided to them and learned that the "majority" of them were fraudulent, according to a statement released Monday.

Investigators determined Michael Simon, 44, of New Orleans falsified insurance documents along with the owners of Scholar First, Melvin Williams of Gonzales and Jeramy Jackson of New Orleans, and gave them out to several charter schools.

Simon was booked on nine counts of computer fraud Sunday. Williams and Jackson are wanted on 23 counts of computer fraud each, according to State Police.

The Wine and Song is Catalyst in Genshin Impact that is part of the Alley Series. It is a 4 Star Catalyst that is available through the Wish system. It is a 4 Star Catalyst, so will be outdone on base damage by any 5 Star, but is still a solid option for certain characters in the game.

You can find the weapon stats and ascension materials listed below, along with some recommended characters that you may wish to try the Catalyst on, if you get it.

This is an excellent choice for Mona, but it is viable for a lot of other Catalyst users since as Ningguang as well, especially if they have other means to stack damage for when they proc the additional damage after sprinting.

The Hospitality and Tourism class at St. Amant High School invited the teachers and staff to Be Their Guest on March 9. For the teachers and staff, it was their Lucky Day.

In spring 2020, Melissa McCormick wrote an Ascension fund Grant, Be Our Guest. The grant was for the Hospitality and Tourism class to host a community event where the skills they learned in class could be put to the test. However, due to COVID-19, the students were unable to host an event for the community. Instead, they put their heads together to decide how they could still apply their knowledge while giving back. They decided what better way than to give back to the teachers who have worked tirelessly teaching both online and in person.

After deciding they would use the grant money to give back to the teachers and staff at St. Amant High, they began planning. The students decided they would host a luncheon. They contacted Van Lambert, who agreed to cook a spaghetti dinner on an early dismissal day. The students then started researching door prizes, decorations, and making invitations. They also worked on a budget for the event to know exactly how much they could spend.

The students worked diligently to make sure they hosted an amazing event. The event was a success.

Thank you for all the hard work that each of you and your students put in to making today such a joyous day for our teachers," assistant principal Kellie Gonzales said. "It was much needed and greatly appreciated. Your students did an excellent job as well. It has certainly not been an easy year and today felt normal and Im grateful for that.

Funds for this grant were provided by PotashCorp-Geismar through the Ascension Fund. The Ascension Fund is a non-profit organization established in 1991 by the Gonzales Rotary Club as an instrument for private sector leaders to invest directly in the work of individual teachers and schools through grants for innovative ideas and programs in Ascension Parish public schools. Teacher Grants of $500 or $1,000 and School Impact Grants of $2,500 are awarded on an annual competitive basis. To date, the Ascension Fund has awarded approximately 1,300 grants representing over $1.55 million dollars in the school system. For more information, visit http://www.ascensionfund.com.

Home News El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron for PC Gets Mid-April Release Window and New Screenshots

Today Takeyasu Sawakis Crim announced more details about the PC release of the cult classic El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron.

The game will launch worldwide on Valves digital download platform in Mid-April.

We also get a gallery of new screenshots, which you can enjoy below.

The press release also included plenty of official details.

El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron combines many genre elements with its rich and detailed storyline, its glorious anime style graphical presentation that changes dramatically as the player progresses through a totally mesmeric experience. With the recent rise of the graphical novel games, what is offered within El Shaddai goes far beyond these confines in that action, strategy and platforming are just a few of the challenges and exciting dangers that unfold.

The story is inspired by the apocryphal Book of Enoch, and follows a scribe seeking seven fallen angels to prevent a great flood from destroying mankind. He is helped in his quest by Lucifel, a guardian angel in charge of the protection of the world who exists outside of the flow of time, alongside four Archangels: Michael, Gabriel, Raphael and Uriel.

Hello? Is it me youre looking for?

Let the Battle Commence..

One important aspect of El Shaddai is fighting /confrontations and a plethora of moves and actions must be learnt to be able to progress. Guard Break is effective against enemies as the name implies against guarded locations. Counter Attack, Unarmed Attack, Double and Single Jumping, Dive Attack and Special Airborne Attack are a few agile and subtle moves. Stealing Weapons, along with a combination of Special Moves, add an intuitive learning curve to the game. Add Boost Skills and this one aspect of El Shaddai adds another dimension to the exploration, and interactive journey the player undertakes. There are many surprises in the story be it the storyline, the backdrops, the cast of amazing characters.

Glyphs galore!

On the Level..

Enoch proceeds through various levels in each chapter, battling enemies along the way. Level types include Battle Stages. Movement stages is where the player controls Enoch and will perform various actions as you make your way through a movement stage. Enemies may appear at times resulting in combat within the movement stage, and at others switching the location to a battle stage. Battle In Movement Stages use Enochs abilities to defeat the enemies or avoid combat, as you proceed through movement stages. Action Stages some stages require carefully timed and executed jumps to progress. Leap your way through stages taking care not to fall.

Combat Staying Alive

The complexities of combat are further extended not only with the weapons chosen and there are three types each with its own qualities, each superior or inferior to each other, like the classical game rock, paper, scissors. Choosing the right one is very important.

Enochs health is represented by the condition of the armor he wears which consists of five parts, each with its own amount of endurance.

If youre unfamiliar with El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron, it was originally released for PS3 and Xbox 360 in 2011.

The game was created by Takeyasu Sawaki, known for his work on Devil May Cry, Steel Battalion, Okami, Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse, Infinite Space, God Wars. and The Lost Child.
