Minecraft servers
Minecraft servers are player-owned or business-owned multiplayer game servers within the 2011 Mojang video game Minecraft. Players can start their own server using a hosting provider. Minecraft multiplayer servers are guided by server operators (op for short), who have access to server commands such as setting the time of day and teleporting players. Operators can also set up restrictions concerning which usernames or IP addresses are allowed or disallowed to enter the server.[1] Multiplayer servers have a wide range of activities, with some servers having their own unique rules and customs. Player versus player combat (PvP) can be enabled to allow fighting between players. Many servers have custom plugins that allow actions that are not normally possible. The largest and most popular server is Hypixel, which has been visited by over 14 million people.[2]
History
2b2t, founded in late 2010, is one of the oldest running servers,[3][4] whose map is also the longest-running unaltered map in the game.[5] The server is known as an anarchy server, which, defined by Katherine Apostolacus in Analogies of Religious Violence in Minecraft, is a server with "scarce or no server-wide rules."[6]
Hypixel, Minecraft's most popular server, was founded in April 2013 by Simon Collins-Laflamme (also known as "hypixel") and Philippe Touchette (also known as "Rezzus").[7][8][9]
In June 2014, Mojang enforced an EULA for server owners, including regulations for how they can run the game, which stated that only Mojang could make money from the game.[10][7] Many servers shut down due to this.[10]
Management
Managing a Minecraft server can be a full-time job for many server owners. Several large servers employ a staff of developers, managers, and artists.[10]
According to Chad Dunbar, the founder of MCGamer, "it really costs to run networks above 1000 concurrent players." This includes salaries, hardware, bandwidth, and DDoS protection.[7] Monthly expenses can easily cost thousands of dollars.[10]
As of 2015, Hypixel costs nearly $100,000 a month. Chad Dunbar stated that costs for his server, MCGamer. which has had over 50,000 players daily, claimed that the server can cost "well into the five-figure marks" per month.[7] Many servers sell in-game ranks and cosmetics to pay for expenses.[10][7]

Tri-State Trail
The Tri-State Trail, or the Tri-State Marker Trail, is a trail to the Delaware-Maryland-Pennsylvania Tri-State Point. Plans for the trail developed in 2012 and 2013, and it was constructed in two phases from 2014 to 2015.[1]
History
In December 2011, Pennsylvania purchased the Pennsylvanian land around the marker, while the Delaware and Maryland sides of the marker remained as private land. Plans for the trail developed throughout 2012 and 2013, and were approved by Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (PA DCNR). The Northern Trail, or Phase 1, was completed near the end of 2014, and the Southern Trail, or Phase 2, was finished in 2015.[1]

The coast is clear (idiom)
"The coast is clear" is an idiom meaning that there is no imminent or apparent danger and that it is safe to proceed with one's intentions.
This idiom may originate from "No hay Moros en la costa," a Spanish phrase meaning "there are no Moors at the coast." This phrase originated from when the Moors of north Africa would invade coastal villages in Spain.

Keepy Ducky is a mobile game released to Android.[1][2]The objective of the game is to keep a duck in the air for as long as possible by throwing snowballs at it. Players start off by keeping one duck in the air, but as players progress through the game, more ducks will spawn, which players will need to keep in the air. The game ends when the player fails to keep the ducks in the air and a duck hits the ground.[1]
Players can unlock different characters which they can play with. There are also different pets players can unlock to help them.Cite error: The <ref> tag has too many names (see the help page).[2]
