If you are using a disposable AA battery, it is no longer recommended to fix and reuse because it may not last as long as your expected performance from the new one, and it can be dangerous for your device if there are leaks inside or damaged batteries. Can you fix a dead AA battery?įixing a dead AA battery may vary depending on the type of the battery.

![]() While you are doing this, pull air through the chamber, making water bubble as vapors are produced. You will want to slightly rub the end of the wand which contains the oil around the edges of the interior of the nail. STEP 6: PLACE CONCENTRATE ON NAIL & INHALEĪfter your nail has slightly cooled down, pick up the dab wand while placing the wax/oil around the nail. Some of you users may feel that they get better dabs if they wait 20 to 30 seconds before they move on to the next step. You should although be careful and wait a minimum of 10 seconds. Feel absolutely free to experiment for yourself - you will be able to hone the waiting time the more you practice. The specified amount of time you will need to wait varies depending on what your preference is and the type of nail. That temperature can be considered as the ideal temperature and you can record it so that you use the optimal temperature every time you use it. Once the nail is no longer red hot, it will signify that a specific temperature has been reached. Wait until the nail is completely red hot then move the flame away. Once it stops glowing, the nail, wait for almost 45 seconds. Otherwise, the heat may cause the glass to crack. Using your hand, torch and heat up the nail, ensuring that the flame points away from the dab rig all the time. Always remember, when this method is used, a little goes a long way. Take the dab tool and pick a small amount of herbal concentrate. Repeat the process at least three times before you use your new nail for the first time. Once it completely coats the nail, use the tongs to remove the nail and place it into a water bowl. Then, use the dabber to apply the essential concentrate of oil over the head of the nail. In order to season your nail in the rig while heating it with your hand, torch it until you start seeing the nail turning red in color. You will always want to season a titanium or quartz dab nail. An unseasoned nail can emit an unpleasant taste of metal into the vapor that you are about to inhale. If it splashes when you give it a pull, pour some of the water out. Start by adding some water to the area of the chamber of your dab rig. However, dab rigs are specifically designed for oil concentrates. ![]() FIRST, A DEFINITIONĪ dab rig is similar in design and appearance to a glass water pipe on a very close level. Today, we will take you through the basics while breaking down the process into six steps which are simple and easy to follow. ![]() Although, if you have never used it before, it can prove to be a confusing task. The trend of using a dab rig or oil rig has exploded in popularity over the past few years. ![]() Often, even with advanced practitioners, by not raising the toes there's a tendency for the arch of the foot to collapse, which can create an inward roll of the ankle so that the weight ends up being carried on the inside of the legs. It also allows for optimal hip position and this combined alignment from the feet through the knees and legs to the hips provides the proper koshi stability for swordsmanship. This then allows the outside muscles and tendons of the legs to carry the body’s weight and ensures that when the knees bend they do so in the direction towards and directly over the feet. It raises the arch of the foot and engages the use of the outside of the foot which inhibits inward ankle roll. In terms of the riai, or underlying rationale of this essential fundamental that I was taught, the raising of the toes does several important things.įirstly, it creates a proper foot tripod for ideal stability. He said Musashi’s teachings were not alone in describing such footwork Ishida sensei was taught similar principles in both Owari Yagyū Shinkage-ryū and Enmei-ryū (2). Therefore, Ishida sensei would always teach that the toes should be raised, especially the big toe, and the heels be attached to the ground. He went on to instruct that while keeping the toes down, raising the heels and bouncing on the balls of the feet to push off from or rotate from might seem natural, traditional Japanese swordsmanship stemmed from a battlefield art that required wearing of Yoroi (armour) that weighed from 20kgs (44lbs) up to 30kgs (66lbs). In fact when I asked Ishida sensei why raising the toes doesn't seem to be widely used in Japanese swordsmanship, he said it was not very common in koryū nowadays because of the influence of Kendō, Gendaibudō and other modern sports, and that particular way of moving was rarely taught anymore. Truthfully, until I met Ishida sensei I had never seen any shihan or practitioner, especially within Musashi's school of Niten Ichi-ryū, use this characteristic that Musashi admonishes, let alone any serious reasoning behind it that, in my view, had any merit. While these ideas may be true, they do little to explain how raising the toes affects the biomechanics of your body and movement, and its impact on important things like stability and weight distribution, and possible power generation through the heels. Such as, it may be easier to step on and trap an opponent's foot or to avoid stubbing your big toe on a rock when fighting outdoors. When I spoke with various senior practitioners and teachers in my early years of koryū kenjutsu training, about why Musashi instructs us to raise our toes, various theories were suggested to me. Now let's consider Musashi's comment "you slightly raise your toes and push off your foot from the heel". This is important when considering Musashi’s statement that "the way of moving is no different from normal walking on a road." The ipsilateral or namba-aruki movement has a profound impact on the human gait, and the way in which parts of the feet are used to maintain stability and generate power, that are uniquely suited to Japanese swordsmanship. This is why Bushi, centuries ago, learned to change their method of walking to an ipsilateral way, called namba-aruki, where the arm and leg from the same side of the body move together, rather than opposing sides using a natural contralateral way.Īdditionally, the contralateral movement includes a heel-to-toe walking motion, where kinetic energy transfers or rolls into the ball of the foot as the heel strikes, and then allows for pushing off the ball and toes of that foot, rather than the heel. However, within the use of weapons, especially Japanese swordsmanship, we seek to use and allow rotational trunk and aligned whole body movements to initiate and generate power, after which it's typically converted into forward momentum. It has also been shown that the contralateral arm swing has an essential role in increasing the stability of walking by preventing rotational trunk movements. The key feature is the contralateral swing of the arm and leg, along with a twisting of the waist, that results in reduced energy consumption while walking. So let's consider the second above-mentioned statement first.Ī universal feature of a human bipedal gait is an autonomic process consisting of coordinated movements of the upper extremities, lower extremities, trunk and pelvis. ![]() ![]() ![]() Musashi commented, "To move from one place to another, you slightly raise your toes and push off your foot from the heel, forcefully," and stressed "In my strategy the way of moving is no different from normal walking on a road."(1) Collage of Nitō-ryū from a 1661 Denshō document ![]() The most obvious way The Fast and the Furious influenced Underground is the addition of deep visual and performance customisation. The film is a real kinetic delight, designed to take you along for the ride. When Brian hits the nitrous the world twists and warps as the force of the acceleration shoves him back into his seat and strains the chassis of his car exhausts sputter and spew flames as racers rev their engines at the start line tires burn and smoke as corners are taken at breakneck speeds. The Fast and the Furious is great at conveying a real sense of velocity and kinaesthesia. The influences run deeper than just street parties and a narrative. The main antagonist even looks like Vince, rocking the same vest and tattooed look. Everyone sneers at you and your crappy car, all the arrogance and bravado from the films are running through the game characters. In a series first, you’re placed into a cutscene that establishes the story of the game you’re a new driver at a street racing party, complete with show cars, pumping hip hop, and neon - it’s a scene straight out of The Fast and the Furious. As you win, you get snapped out of your daydream by your friend Samantha. You easily beat your opponents as you race at night through neon-drenched Olympic City. Underground also embraces this culture and throws you straight into the racing seat of a heavily modified Honda Integra R. street gatherings to the dusty desert raves, people congregate to express their shared love of cars, neon, and music. Racing is just one element of tuner culture presented in the film. We get a look under the hood and get to glimpse the parties, the friendships, the rivalries, and the crime. The Fast and the Furious isn’t just a film about fast cars, it’s a film about the culture that surrounds them.

Need for Speed - an already established franchise - opted to move away from its tried and tested formula in (hot) pursuit of new horizons. The film sped its way to the top of the box office when it released in 2001 and game developers clearly wanted to ride that slipstream and taste the success of first place themselves. I think it manages to steer clear of copaganda, valourising only Brian himself - who eventually turns into a criminal racer - not the other cops. The Fast and the Furious is about an undercover cop - Brian - who has to infiltrate a gang of street racers - Dom, Letty, Vince, Mia, and the rest. ![]() Umenhofer said his complaints were ignored, so he shared his concerns with city officials, who sent his complaint back to police leadership. Umenhofer reported to supervisors an array of misconduct, including that a cop had sex in an undercover car in a parking lot where kids were present and that a SWAT team member bragged that he’d gotten away with murder after he killed an unarmed 15-year-old. However, the charges against her were later dropped, and Covington was ultimately convicted and sentenced to five years probation. Meanwhile, Covington followed through with his plan and had meth planted in his ex-wife’s car. The chief also tried to have Sims’ certification revoked but was overturned by the state board. The district attorney eventually dismissed the charges in the interest of justice. The police chief referred Sims for criminal charges, and he was indicted by a grand jury. Sims told the chief, whom he said did nothing, so Sims copied recordings of Covington and the confidential informant discussing the plan and gave them to the Texas Rangers.Ĭovington then initiated a series of IA investigations against Sims, who was later fired for violating the department’s computer-use policy. Jeff Covington intended to plant drugs in Covington’s ex-wife’s car so she would be arrested and he would gain leverage in their child custody dispute. Sims was tipped off by a confidential informant that Sgt. Speaking out against police misconduct brings trouble for officers.USA TODAY spent more than a year unearthing the cases from thousands of documents from police and sheriff’s departments, prosecutors, oversight groups and labor regulators around the country, including federal files provided by confidential sources.

Hansi Flick has put his name among the best coaches on the planet with his work at Bayern Munich. I had some fatigue in the middle parts simply because of how long the plot goes on. It's my third-favourite in the series now, with DQ8 and DQ3 tied for first, but I'd say that objectively this is the best one and the one I would recommend to newcomers. In a lot of ways it feels like they were aiming to make the ultimate Dragon Quest game and they may well have succeeded. ![]() I would play it for 5 to 6 hours a day, every day. It basically consumed my life for the last 2 weeks. However, I personally can't help comparing it to Dragon Quest VIII, and that's a hard act to follow.ĥ5h 43m ProgressThis is a very dangerous game, lemme tell ya. It easily held my attention for over 100 hours, and I think it would be a good entry point to the series. Overall, Dragon Quest XI was a very good RPG. At least it was easy to pick up where I left off, but this could easily have been avoided by just putting the credits at the end of the story. I missed 30-40 hours of the story, and I was in the middle of another game when I found out. When the credits roll on a game, I think it's pretty reasonable to believe the story is done and everything left is just fluff, but in this case that is 100% wrong. Now, my complaint: in Dragon Quest XI, after you beat the boss and see the credits, the story is not over. All this is to say: it's just not for me. ![]() Even in Dragon Quest VIII, when I really wanted to spend more time in the world, I lost interest after getting to the post-game town. Talking to NPCs and fighting random monsters just isn't that fun by itself, and I have better things to do. When I beat the final boss and see the credits, I feel like the story is over. I have to complain about the "post-game". Really, it just made me want to play Dragon Quest VIII again. It's too mellow, especially when riding a horse. I turned it on for a few minutes, and boy did it feel good to hear that music again, but it just didn't fit in this game. About 80% of the way through, I learned that the free DLC lets you switch to the overworld theme from Dragon Quest VIII. Several of the tracks have stuck with me, and I can still recall them instantly, several months later. It would have been even better if you could imbue it with elemental effects/resistance. Being able to rework your existing equipment was a nice feature. There was almost never a reason to buy any equipment, since you could usually make something better with the Fun-Size Forge for a fraction of the price. The money in the game was basically superfluous. It took too long to skip through it, though, which made the casino shenanigans take longer than necessary. One nice touch was that when you load a save file, it gives you a quick summary of what just happened in the story. The game did have some good quality of life improvements over the older games, but it's all pretty standard stuff that you would find in any other RPG from the last five or ten years. Everything was polished and well done, but I didn't really love the characters, and I can't say that there was anything truly memorable or that it gave me joy. 107h 6m PlayedDragon Quest XI was a solid entry in the series, but for me it lacked that "special something" compared to my favorite RPGs (Dragon Quest VIII, Final Fantasy VI and IX, Chrono Trigger). ![]() Previously, Kennedy spent over eight years with Marriott International, holding multiple management roles within business development, including Vice President, Full Service Development. In addition, Kennedy led several high-impact strategic asset management projects including brand conversions and food & beverage leasing throughout the portfolio. During her tenure, Pebblebrook acquired 24 properties representing more than $2.5 billion of total asset value. Prior to joining Montage Hotels & Resorts, Kennedy was Vice President, Acquisitions at Pebblebrook Hotel Trust, a publically traded real estate investment trust which opportunistically acquires and invests in upscale, full-service hotel and resort properties. A seasoned executive with 18 years of business development, acquisition and financial experience, Kennedy is responsible for the continued growth and expansion of the company's portfolio, which includes both Montage and Pendry branded hotels and resorts within the United States and internationally. A more sultry evening venue, 4 Saints, offers rich leather seating, chocolate brown woods and a sea of individually procured lanterns glimmering overhead.Montage Hotels & Resorts announced the appointment of Robin Kennedy as Senior Vice President, Acquisitions & Development. Juniper Table is a laid-back Mediterranean eatery featuring a palette of slate greys and cream set against geometric tiled walls and floors. There are two distinct food and beverage venues at the hotel. The Arlo suite, living room The Arlo suite, bedroom The Arlo suite, bathroom Added plusses like a pool table, deep-soaking tub, and two private wraparound balconies would have truly been a hit with the Rat Pack. I supplemented those with some tables, lighting and ceramics found at retailers around Los Angeles who work with new and current designers & manufacturers who are doing great work,” Bradley says of the eclectic mix that defines the look of this suite. “I found several chairs, tables and accessories at local shops that specialize in noted furniture designers and vintage pieces from the 50s, 60s and 70s. Frank Sinatra and his glamourous pals would have been right at home among its museum-quality furnishings. The ‘piece de resistance’ is truly the 230 square meter presidential suite, The Arlo. Intricately layered textures and geometric patterns, such as those in headboards and carpets, sit alongside a fresh color palette of blues and greens all set against the backdrop of natural wood, creamy neutrals and whites that offer the ultimate respite from the desert sun. In the rooms and suites – all of which feature mountain views or private terraces – Bradley and her design team sought to create custom designed furniture pieces that echoed simplicity and comfort. At ground level everything from the glass and brass coffee tables and blue linen sofas to the Calacatta marble communal table was custom designed for the hotel. In the cozy lobby lounge, ceilings rise to nearly 7 meters and are complemented by wood shelves with a montage of locally sourced ceramics and books which had to be installed on a scaffold. Further on in the lobby sits a sculptural bar which Bradley explains is, “a fun play with scale and is a very contemporary vignette and experience.” Behind this bar, a soaring picture window reveals views to the nearby San Jacinto Mountains. Reception LobbyĪlthough it offers a rather conspicuous nod to Palm Springs and Mid-Century Modern, it is immediately offset with clean, modern lines and materials. ![]() Upon entry, guests are greeted by a 5-meter tall macramé owl-backed reception designed by Los Angeles-based Powerstrip Studio. “Palm Springs is so noted for its place in America’s Mid-Century Modern movement, and there’s so much in that era I am personally connected to and inspired by – and yet we are working in a beautiful, new-build structure with so much inspiration of its own, so I thought it would be disingenuous to create something that might be striving to be museum-like filled only with original pieces from that era,” says Kimpton’s Global SVP Design & Creative Director Ave Bradley. The 153-room desert retreat pays homage to the iconic Mid-Century Modern aesthetic that has defined Palm Springs for decades, but infuses its own, decidedly 21 st century modern design ethos.
