![]() That was really exciting to me, I absolutely loved that it would create stairs for hatches. On top of what's already been suggested-we can build bases on top of icy landmasses now. but i’m definitely not in love :(Īlso, on a more practical standpoint, between the world being much smaller and most of it being packed with hostile life, there isn’t much incentive to build anywhere but in the starting biome. It’s big and full of unessential stuff like plants and decorations and furniture and all the bathroom equipment. To take the Dragon (Cyclops) and sail to new, unknown regions was like the best thing ever by then. Man i remember when BZ was still supposed to be a DLC. Sometimes i just get in the first Seamoth and cruise randomly. I still have the game installed and i never beat the story on purpose. I would happen upon a beautiful place and be like “o ♥♥♥♥ i totally want to live here”. But i built them because i loved SN1’s vast world so much, and i was so deeply immersed in it, that i wanted to sort of, how can i say, DECORATE it. Were most of those superfluous? Absolutely. The first subnautica compelled me to build almost twenty bases, between large glorified ones and small, functional outposts. (where it also makes sense within the story.) ![]() I would like to use the larger rectangle room for example, but it feels like there are only a few places to do that. I would also build to be creative in the use of the available base items. ![]() I would build in a place that has food access, resource access and a lack of predators. If the sun was the most obvious and abundant power source than I would build in an area that has lots of sunlight. For lack of a better way to say it, I would build a base that makes sense within the story, just like to first game. Yeah, fair enough, people have different opinions and requirements. For example, the Deep Lilypad biome or Fabricator Caverns are two such locales.īottom line is that I haven't perceived a shortage of potential base sites, I've built and relocated temporary scanner rooms at various locations throughout the map that could be expanded to large bases if desired. That allows a center of operations for both the Glacial Basin and Arctic Spires, I also have a base at the edge of the world just for the hell of it to observe Leviathans. If it's access to raw materials, the Purple Vents is a good location for common resources and Crystal Caverns for rare materials.įor strategic value, I have a base that straddles land and water at Glacial Bay. If it's uniqueness, try building a base nestled in the largest of the tree spires or at the bottom of the Koppa Mining Site.

Trump Channels Hitler With ‘Poison the Blood’ Reference at Dictator-Friendly RallyĬohen, however, insists he’s not worried. This source has spoken repeatedly to Trump about this case, and adds the former president gets especially animated or agitated when Cohen comes up. ![]() The former president has encouraged his legal team to “fight rough and fight dirty, if you got to” with Cohen and others during the trial, a person close to Trump says, paraphrasing the ex-president. Trump hopes that this will be achieved by relentlessly attacking his ex-fixer’s character, intelligence, professional acumen, federal criminal charges, and even personal life. Trump’s former lawyer and fixer is now a listed witness for New York State Attorney General Letitia James’ office, and the ex-president constantly has revenge on his mind. In the weeks prior to the start of the trial, Trump had specifically discussed with some of his legal and political advisers how much he was looking forward to his attorneys making Michael Cohen “cry” on the stand, a person familiar with the situation says. “It is not how I’d do it, but … maybe that’s a reason I’m not on the team.” “A lot of this is just begging for sanctions,” says one attorney who’s known Trump for years. This includes going into trial, which could last months, with the intention of grilling witnesses with lengthy, meandering questions and repeating again and again arguments that the judge has already deemed frivolous, the sources say. Trump and his lawyers - who include Chris Kise, Alina Habba, and Jesus Suarez for this trial - have also long settled on a roster of delay tactics that are almost guaranteed to antagonize Judge Engoron. But Trump and his lawyers are hoping that their legal strategy in their ongoing courtroom “ suicide mission” will score some political and public-relations points for Trump, kick up as much dirt as possible, enrage the judge, gratuitously trash some of the witnesses, and turn the process into a media circus. That approach - “let’s just do it and be legends,” in the words of the festival’s founder - famously turned Fyre Fest into a scandal-riddled disaster. One person close to Trump describes it as the “Fyre Festival strategies.” This belief led to the development of an approach to the case that centers around chaos and cacophony, rather than any attempt to win it on the merits. Their best chance - and it wasn’t much, according to two sources familiar with the matter and another two people briefed on internal deliberations - would be to fight the case on appeal. The office declined to disclose any additional information about the employee.In the weeks leading up to the start of his $250 million civil fraud trial in New York, Donald Trump and his attorneys privately discussed how they believed defeat in this trial was preordained. ![]() She was also placed on immediate administrative leave pending an investigation of the incident.

A separate officer soon thereafter approached the woman and told her she had to leave the courtroom. She spoke with the officer and appeared to have been told to return to her seat in the public area. The woman had approached a court officer during testimony in the courtroom at the edge of the divider separating where Trump was sitting and the public gallery.

Create a 50s style roll at the top of the forehead and pair with super cool shaved temples and a long, thin side burn detail.Įven dreadlocks can embody the scene aesthetic. If you crave a splash of style as opposed to all-over color, focus your favorite hue to the bangs and front layers of the face to display the color best.Ĭombining retro and modern styles is very edgy, making it ideal for Asian scene hair. Many medium scene hair looks use bright and bold colors to make a statement. Spike hair up in the opposite corner for a funky effect. Make a side part and use a razor to cut hair on the opposite side of the head. Make choppy layers on the bottom of the hair for a scene vibe.Įven if your brown scene hair is short, you can still create those signature bangs and straight, choppy layers. A cute bob length, however, is very flattering. Long lengths are typically a no-go for the scene girl with thin hair because hair can appear limp and stringy. Teasing should be treated as a boosting style, not one you want to display. Before your styling is complete, you may need to add a touch of baby powder or dry shampoo to keep the height going.Ĭurious about what different scene hairstyles have to offer? Below are 35 looks that are as unique as you are. Once you’ve teased your hair, you’ll want to smooth down the outermost layer for a polished effect. When done right, teasing, or backcombing, as it’s also called, should be able to be brushed out with ease. ![]() Do not be aggressive to avoid creating any knots. Take the comb and gently run it downwards through the hair. To tease, take a small portion of hair and hold it up. Adding hairspray before teasing is often a good idea to create that perfect hold. Use a fine-tooth comb to tease hair so that the short layers up top lift up. Once hair is straight, focus on creating, even more, lift around the face and on the top of the head. Once you’ve blow-dried all of your hair, it’s time to straighten all of those fun, choppy layers. Even though the heat from blow dryers can cause damage, straighteners typically wreak the most havoc, thanks to their intense heat. Next, you will want to blow all of your hair straight with a blow dryer to avoid too much flat ironing. Add any serums or heat protectors at this point, if they are made for wet hair. When hair is wet, spray on a root lifter or volumizer and focus on the roots. If you’re looking to style scene hairstyle, it’s important to remember to create height at the top of the head. Even if you have curls, the hair at the top of your head should be the fullest. Regardless of whether your scene style is short or long, you’ll want to focus on one feature in particular: choppy layers. ![]() ![]() There are, however, many variations on this look for different hair textures and short lengths like cool, edgy pixies for every babe to try. Inspired by both shag and mullet styles, the classic scene hairstyle is full and thick around the face with choppy layers and long bangs characterized by long, thin layers worn underneath.

Gabled Roofs and Hipped Roofs on Thai Houses At the same time, it is a decorative part of the roof with its ornately carving design that accentuates the roof height, steepness and shape. ![]() Practically, it protects the exposed end of the roof tiles at the gable from the wind. The main decorative feature of the house roof in central Siamese is the bargeboard, or panlom, which is a long, thin board attached along the projecting edge of a roof in front of a gable. The aridity of the northeast causes the roofs have relatively gentle slope. Roofs of homes in the south, where the monsoon season is long, are large and steep in order to cope with heavy rains and winds. Cooler weather in the north requires the roof to dip lower to the same level of the windows and the roof is not concave. Regional designs vary according to different weather conditions and cultures. Since the house has no ceiling, the large roof cavity allows hot air to rise up through the eaves. The height of the roof not only protects against the rain but helps keeping the interior cool. Typical roofing materials are terra cotta tiles, teak shingles, corrugated iron, palm leaf thatch, teak wood chip, dried nipa palm leaves and dried grasses like vetiver. It protects the structure from the sun and rain. The Roof, with distinctive characteristics, Wattana Boonjub wrote: “ is the most unique part of Thai architecture. 3) Terraces (chaan) are normally connected with a verandah. 2) Walkways with roof roofed walkways (“muk krasan”) provides protection from rain and sunlight like the type often seen at temples and palaces. The rooms open onto covered verandahs about 2 meters wide, which step down onto a broad wooden terrace.Įlements of Thai houses and residential buildings include: 1) Detached buildings with open-air walkways, often conforming with traditional landscape. Skilled carpenters pre-assemble the wall panels in a standardized, modular system that allows them to be used interchangeably in any Thai house. Windows are tall and wide, for optimum ven tilation their shape mirrors the trapezoid of the cabin all panels. Columns and walls are built leaning inwards, adding structural strength. The lower ends of the bargeboards are carved in a horn-like shape called ngao. The curve of the steep roof is highlighted by a bowed plank called a bargeboard, or panlom, placed at the gable rims to protect the thatch roof tiles from wind. When the ground is dry, families use the sheltered area under the house, which is about 2 meters to 2.5 meters high, for making crafts, storing tools or raising poultry. This is needed because central Thai villages are mostly built near rivers and canals, which are subject to flooding during the wet season that lasts from June to October. The house’s adaptation to heavy rain and heat starts with the tall posts on which the structure is built. These slopes and curving lines keep it from looking boxy. It has a concave roof, arching bargeboards with hooked lower finials, and trapezoidal walls.

Many years later, he discovered that the farther a planet was from the sun, on the average, the longer it took for that planet to make one complete revolution. He also found that when the planets were nearer the sun in their orbits, they move faster than when they were farther from the sun. He found that the Sun was positioned at one "focus" of the ellipse (there are two "foci", both located on the major axis). An ellipse is a sort of a squashed circle with a short diameter (the "minor axis") and a longer diameter (the "major axis"). ![]() He discovered that they move in ellipses. Using these observations, Kepler discovered that the planets do not move in circles, as 2000 years of "Natural Philosophy" had taught. Tycho's observations of planetary motion were the most accurate of the time (before the invention of the telescope!). After Tycho's death in 1601, Kepler was able to obtain Tycho's observations. Tycho was a great and extremely accurate observer, but he didn't have the mathematical capacity to analyze all of the data he collected. Kepler briefly worked with the great Danish observational astronomer, Tycho Brahe. Why the huge differences in periods? We need to go back to the time of Galileo, except that we're not going to look at his work, but rather at the work of one of his contemporaries, Johannes Kepler (1571-1630). Refer to the table with the rotation rates and revolution rates of all the planets. Poor, ponderous, and distant Pluto takes a whopping 248 years for one revolution. While earth takes 365 days to make one circuit, the closest planet, Mercury, takes only 88 days. We all learn in grade school that the planets move at differing rates around the sun. A year is the time it takes the earth to make one revolution - a little over 365 days. The revolution of the earth around the sun is how we define the year. Giant Jupiter has lots of spin, turning once on its axis every 10 hours, while Venus takes 243 days to spin once. There are no rules that govern the rotation rates of the planets, it all depends on how much "spin" was in the original material that went into forming each one. We further divide this period of time into 24 hours, each of which is divided into 60 minutes, each of which is broken into 60 seconds. The time it takes the earth to rotate from noon until the next noon we define as one day. The top-like rotation of the earth on its axis is how we define the day. Second, the earth revolves around the sun, like a tetherball at the end of a string going around the center pole. ![]() First, the earth rotates on its axis, like a spinning top. There are two that specifically interest us. Actually, several different motions all at once. This brings up the question of how we define the time intervals we measure. Looking at the numbers above, you'll immediately notice that you are different ages on the different planets. ![]() Queued previews in Topaz Labs Video AIĮach preview saves the enhancement settings used to generate it.

It is not perfect, I didn’t spend a lot of time on it and I certainly didn’t run model comparisons - it is more as an example. There is vertical judder being caused by bad field matching, and - at least from the clip you gave - given there is no visible interlacing in the fields, you are probably better off deinterlacing outside of Topaz first.Īs an example, this is your clip, processed to remove as much of that crappy interlacing and vertical judder as I can without spending a lot of time on it (and the entire file in case there is issues) with a general upscale and IVTC to 23.976. I see no way that this clip could be imported into Topaz and have the output be good without attempting to correct the input source first. Having said that, just from the clip you gave, its not obvious if the clip contains different framerates as it appears to be hard telecined (or similar) with a very rough interlacing. Its also one of the causes of Topaz Interlaced models not working properly, because these models don’t handle it well - and they probably won’t ever. Its also why VFR content is a pain the butt to make properly progressive. Thanks in advance for your feedback!ĭuplication in cartoons is generally because a lot of animated content has variable frame rates - most typically slow - meaning trying to squash it into a a set framerate often means having to add missing frames to extend it.
