The first taste will be of the matcha cold foam with its slightly grassy flavor, and then comes the fruitiness of the strawberry and the creaminess of the coconut milk. The drink is not on the Starbucks menu and it's pink at the bottom and green at the top, creating a pretty pastel two-tone drink that is photograph-ready. If you want an Instagram-worthy drink, then this Starbucks TikTok famous refresher is for you. Ingredients: coconut milk, ice, matcha tea blend (ground Japanese green tea and sugar).Go ahead and try it! Ask your barista for an iced matcha tea latte with coconut milk!įor a tall cup size 12 oz (354 ml) serving: The green tea matcha can feel a bit dusty because the powder is dissolved in the drink and some of the minuscule leaves can stay in it or sit at the bottom. The green color of this iced matcha latte isn’t particularly appealing to some, but if you like matcha and iced drinks in general, then this is a refreshing iced matcha tea latte drink. While we can’t claim to know what that tastes like, we can say it’s an energizing drink that’s light, and slightly sweet from the coconut milk. One reviewer from Buzzfeed said the drink tasted like “ambition and confidence”. In February, Zendaya apparently ordered a venti iced matcha green tea latte with coconut milk which saw an increase in the popularity of the drink according to some Starbucks employees. That’s according to a Starbucks barista anyway. You may already be green with envy at Zendaya she’s got a superhero boyfriend, she’s a talented actress, she’s rich, and she’s good-looking.Īnd while you may not have any of those things (unless you kidnap Tom Holland which we advise against), you can get “The Zendaya”, her favorite green drink from Starbucks.

The site attracted the attention of the founder of Napster, Sean Parker, whose own dot com life had its spectacular ups and spectacular downs. ![]() As the site was brought to more and more university campuses, Zuckerberg and Saverin began to have a difference of opinion: Saverin wanted to sell ad space to generate revenue (as he had been the website's sole financier and he had profit mentality based on being an economics major), while Zuckerberg, never one interested in money, didn't want to go that route as the ads would make the site lose its "cool" factor, which made it popular. As "thefacebook" as it was then called began to blossom, the twins and Narenda had to figure out what to do to regain what they believed their intellectual property without having to sue, since that's not what gentlemanly Harvardites do. Zuckerberg's assertion was that he never used a line of code provided by the three in his work. Zuckerberg, with financing from his friend Saverin, decided instead to develop his own website without telling the "Winklevi" (as he calls the twins) and Narenda. Based on an on-line blog about his ex-girlfriend and a site he developed allowing its users to rate the hotness factor of girls on campus, Zuckerberg, who exhibited a streak of arrogance, was asked by fellow Harvardites, wealthy twins Cameron Winklevoss and Tyler Winklevoss, and their friend Divya Narendra, to enter into an agreement to develop a social networking website specifically for Harvard students, the attraction for people to visit it being its exclusivity solely to Harvard students. Harvard students Mark Zuckerberg and Eduardo Saverin - officially listed as the co-founders of the website - were once best friends. Columbia PicturesĪs told through flashbacks via deposition hearings for two concurrent lawsuits, the development and early days of the social networking website Facebook is presented. Each has his own narrative, his own version of the Facebook story in this multi-level portrait of 21st Century success-both the youthful fantasy of it and its finite realities as well. In the midst of the chaos are Mark Zuckerberg (Jesse Eisenberg), the brilliant Harvard student who conceived a Web site Eduardo Saverin (Andrew Garfield), once Zuckerberg's close friend, who provided the seed money for the fledgling company Napster founder Sean Parker (Justin Timberlake), who brought Facebook to Silicon Valley's venture capitalists and the Winklevoss twins (Armie Hammer and Josh Pence), the Harvard classmates who asserted that Zuckerberg stole their idea and then sued him for ownership of it. ![]() ![]() The movie moves from the halls of Harvard to the cubicles of Palo Alto to capture the heady early days of a culture-changing phenomenon in the making-and the way it both pulled a group of young revolutionaries together and then split them apart. "The Social Network" explores the moment at which Facebook was invented-through the warring perspectives of the super-smart young men who each claimed to be there at its inception. Every age has its visionaries who leave, in the wake of their genius, a changed world-but rarely without a battle over exactly what happened and who was there at the moment of creation. ![]() Finished seventh for the Jayhawks and 13th overall in the men’s 6K race at the season-opening Bob Timmons Classic (9/1) with a time of 20:05.1 … Placed 29th in the men’s 8K at the Rim Rock Classic (9/29) with a time of 25:45.5 … Finished 75th in the unseeded men’s 8K at the Pre-National Invitational (10/13) with a time of 27:45.31 … KU’s seventh finisher and 32nd finisher overall at the Big 12 Championship (10/26), clocking in with a time of 25:28.4.Įarned Academic All-Big 12 Honors … Opened the season with a 17th place finish at the Bob Timmons Dual Classic (9/2) where he completed the 6K in 21:09.6 … Saw a 21st place finish and 8K time of 26:44.8 at the Rim Rock Farm Collegiate Classic (9/30) … Competed at the Pre-National Invitational (10/14) where he placed 172nd in the men’s 8K unseeded race in 26:55.8 … Took 45th place with an 8K time of 25:11.7 at the Big 12 Cross Country Championship (10/28) … His 10K time of 31:47.1 landed him with a 150th place finish at the NCAA Division I Midwest Region Cross Country Championships.Ĭlaimed 800-meter title at the 2016 Texas 6A State Track & Field Championships with a time of 1:49.67 … Finished his senior campaign undefeated in the 800 meters … His career best in the 800 meters came at the 2016 Texas Track & Field Coaches Association (TTFCA) Inaugural Meet of Champions with his time of 1:49.58, good for a first-place finish … Runner-up in the 800 meters at the 2015 Texas State meet with a time of 1:53.24 … Third-place finisher in the 1,600 meters at the 2016 Texas State meet with a time of 4:10.51 … Broke school records in the 800 meters (1:49.67), 1,600 meters (4:10.51) and 3 miles (14:54.00) … In cross country, his fastest 5K outing came at the 2015 Odessa Invitational when he finished in 15:39.96 and claimed fourth place overall … Graduated in the top 10 of his high school class. ![]() They travel the Solar system, chasing wanted criminals to We follow two bounty hunters, Spike and Jet, who own a ship called the Bebop. The story is set in a space western setting - a genre and setting I'm loving more and more for each show I watch that falls under the genre. You know what? Cowboy Bebop is that exception. But all rules and preferences have exceptions. Why? They have a tendency to get boring, or repetitive. People who know me know that I'm not a fan of episodic anime series unless they're either one season (12-14 episodes) long or a slice of life series. The show's heavy Western influence struck a chord with American viewers, where it became a "gateway drug" to anime aimed at adult audiences. Protagonist Spike Spiegel won Best Male Character, and Megumi Hayashibara won Best Voice Actor for her role as Faye Valentine in the 19 Anime Grand Prix, respectively.Ĭowboy Bebop's biggest influence has been in the United States, where it premiered on Adult Swim in 2001 with many reruns since. Cowboy Bebop was not a ratings hit in Japan, but sold over 19,000 DVD units in the initial release run, and 81,000 overall. Satellite channel WOWOW picked up the series in the fall of that year and aired it in its entirety uncensored. This was due to anime censorship having increased following the big controversies over Evangelion, as a result most of the series was pulled from the air due to violent content. As a rival's maniacal plot continues to unravel, Spike must choose between life with his newfound family or revenge for his old wounds.Įdit BackgroundWhen Cowboy Bebop first aired in spring of 1998 on TV Tokyo, only episodes 2, 3, 7-15, and 18 were broadcast, it was concluded with a recap special known as Yose Atsume Blues. While developing bonds and working to catch a colorful cast of criminals, the Bebop crew's lives are disrupted by a menace from Spike's past. ![]() The duo is joined by the beautiful con artist Faye Valentine, odd child Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivrusky IV, and Ein, a bioengineered Welsh Corgi. Meanwhile, Jet manages his own troubled memories while taking care of Spike and the Bebop, their ship. Beneath his goofy and aloof demeanor, Spike is haunted by the weight of his violent past. Spike Spiegel and Jet Black pursue criminals throughout space to make a humble living. These new societies are plagued by murder, drug use, and theft, and intergalactic outlaws are hunted by a growing number of tough bounty hunters. By the year 2071, humanity has expanded across the galaxy, filling the surface of other planets with settlements like those on Earth. ![]() Mannanoligosaccharides (MOS): prebiotic ingredient promoting digestive health by serving as food source for beneficial gut bacteria.

![]() ![]() The cycle repeats itself, resulting in respiration which as discussed is mechanically due to pressure changes. ![]() As the diaphragm restores and moves upwards, the pressure within the thoracic cavity increases, resulting in exhalation. The reduction in pressure of the thoracic cavity, which normally has a negative gauge pressure, thus keeping the lungs inflated, pulls air into the lungs, inflating the alveoli and resulting in oxygen transport needed for respiration. The mechanism resulting in inhalation is due to the lowering of the diaphragm, which increases the volume of the thoracic cavity surrounding the lungs, thus lowering its pressure as determined by the ideal gas law. Inhalation is a result of pressure differences between the lungs and the atmosphere that create a potential for air to enter the lungs. Pressure is also responsible for the breathing mechanism and plays an essential role in the respiratory system. Δh = difference in height of the static liquid Pascal’s Law quantitatively within a fluid can be derived from the expression that determines the pressure at a given height (or depth) and is defined by Pascal’s Principle: Pascal’s Principle qualitatively states that in an enclosed static liquid pressure is transmitted undiminished. Pascal’s Principle can be used in exploiting the pressure of a static liquid as a measure of energy per unit volume to perform a given work such as in hydraulic presses. Pascal’s Principle (also known as Pascal’s Law ) is applied to the static fluids and in static fluids takes advantage of the height dependency of pressure. The pressure from the fluid below the region must be greater than the pressure from the fluid above by the weight of the region, for any region within a fluid, to achieve static equilibrium. The sum of these forces must be zero to achieve static equilibrium. Likewise, due to the fluid below the region, there is an upward force acting on this region which is equal to the pressure times the area of contact. Due to the fluid above the region, the downward force acting on this region is equal to the pressure times the area of contact. Firstly, a force of gravity acting downwards (its weight) in the region is equal to its density object (ρ), times its volume of the object (v), times the acceleration due to gravity (g). Then, within the medium, the forces acting in this region are taken into account. Consider a rectangular region within the fluid medium with density ρ L (same as that of the fluid medium), width w, length l, and height h for analyzing such a simple system. The condition for static equilibrium would otherwise not be met. Within a static fluid at a given point in space, the sum of acting forces must be equal to zero. The Pressure at any Point in a Static Fluid In an open condition or open channel flow The total pressure on the system is given as follow if the fluid is subjected to atmospheric pressure:Ĭonditions for the Consideration of Fluid Pressure: On dividing the mass of the fluid in consideration with the volume of fluid considered, the density of the fluid can be calculated: G = Acceleration due to gravity (considering earth g = 9.8 m/s) P fluid = Pressure at a point taken in fluid ![]() The following relation can be used to calculate the pressure in fluids. Gravity, acceleration, or forces outside a closed container are the factors that cause this pressure. Depending on the context of use there are several in which pressure can be expressed.įluid pressure can be defined as the measurement of the force per unit area on a given object on the surface of a closed container or in the fluid. Pressure is an important physical quantity-it plays an essential role in topics ranging from thermodynamics to solid and fluid mechanics. The pressure is a scalar quantity that is defined as force per unit area where the force acts in a direction perpendicular to the surface. ![]() While not all of my readers have had the pleasure to shoot a really high-end precision rifle (like the other 3 test rifles), almost everyone has fired a rifle similar to this. I consider it my baseline for comparison. This particular one is a Savage Axis SR 308 Win. It is a standard, budget-friendly 308 rifle. The rifle I used is not a precision rifle, but it represents something most people are familiar with. 308 Muzzle Brake Resultsįor our mid-sized 30 caliber cartridge, I had to go with the legendary 308 Win. To learn more about those measurements and hear the cases for both sides, please read the recoil post. Average % Reduction – This is just the average of the other two measures (weighted 50/50).% Reduction in Peak Force – This is the highest instantaneous peak force recorded through the entire recoil event.It isn’t just the peak force, but the entire “area under the curve” when you graph force over time. It represents the total “size” of the force that I described in the recoil post. % Reduction in Overall Momentum – This is the reduction in overall impulse or total momentum of the rifle at the end of the recoil.For each set of results, I will show 3 pieces of information: Here is an example of the data I recorded for one of the muzzle brakes:Īs I publish the results, I plan to show how much each muzzle brake reduces recoil compared to a bare muzzle. So I backed that down to only be 3 shots per muzzle brake. I started out firing 5 shots per muzzle brake, but as I refined the system and setup, my data became so consistent and repeatable that 5 shots seemed like I was just wasting a lot of good match-grade ammo without adding any value. The results are based on the average of multiple shots fired with each muzzle brake. Honestly, I’m not here to try to convince anyone one way or the other, but simply present the data. As we learned in the recoil post, it seems to be some combination of the two factors. Some experts lean more towards that being related to the total impulse or momentum, and others think it is more linked to the peak force. The big question comes down to what measurement most closely correlates to perceived recoil from the shooter’s perspective. Unfortunately, there is no industry standard for measuring recoil, which means manufacturers often publish whatever makes them look better. Here is the full line-up of muzzle brakes, and you can read more about each in this post.Īs we discussed in the recoil post, when someone claims a product “reduces recoil by 50%” … it usually isn’t clear what they’re talking about. ![]() For more info on the test equipment and how the data was gathered, please see the recoil post. ![]() The recoil data was collected using high-speed, high-resolution force sensors. This post summarizes the results for the recoil tests ran on 20+ muzzle brakes using two 30 caliber test rifles: the 308 Win and the monster 300 Norma Magnum. ![]() The parking lots are massive and so there is a lot of driving looking for spots, and then walking. While I still visit LL Bean for personal and practical gifts, the old thrill of shopping there is but a memory.Įxpectedly, the place is HUGE with multiple stores/shops.one for skiing, one for hunting, one for home, and the flagship store. ![]() That means that the boots that put LL Bean on the map a century ago are now no longer worth its founder’s original guarantee. With the ending of its lifetime product guarantee, LL Bean has lost its edge. Even the choice of styles and colors of such attire has declined precipitously in recent years. Quality and durability of shirts and sweaters and hiking boots and raingear aren’t what they once were. Leading-edge products for outdoor adventures engage one’s attention and create longing to be outdoors. Memorials revere the founder’s wisdom with words and images. Displays of a taxidermist’s art fill a stairwell niche. Inside staff eagerly guide patrons to whatever they seek. The iconic big boot still guards the main building’s front entrance. Paved paths lead from one building to another. ![]() At the northeast side lot is a multiport electric car charging center. Its themed buildings share a central campus with massive amounts of parking nearby. But no trip to Maine is really complete with a visit to Bean in Freeport, even if you don't buy anything it's worth seeing and taking that picture outside by the Big Boot.Īs the epicenter for the area’s outlet stores, and a flagship in its own right, LL Bean has lost little of its luster since my last visit. I understand there is an "outlet store" in Freeport proper too, but we did not visit so I cannot comment on it's contents of value. If you are hunting for Bean discounts the Outlet Store in Ellsworth (near Acadia NP, albeit 2 hours north) may be what you seek. Now, given the high quality and outstanding level of customer service that goes with that price that doesn't bother a lot of folks (me included), but each of the stores has a sale section where you can indeed find bargain priced items, which is good actually for those at either end of the "standard sizing" charts because the small and large sizes seem to show up in the Sale Sections in greater numbers than the average ones (naturally). The complex is large and vast, the stores are staffed by friendly and helpful employees, and if you are looking for a specific item you will find it in your color, size, shape and/or unique length as long as you are willing to pay the full Bean price. Multiple Bean Stores, each catering to a different section of their Catalog (i.e. Their digital ghillie suit will turn you all but invisible, letting you stealthily approach to get the drop on unsuspecting opponents and help your allies clear out an occupied zone. This is where the Echelon (Splinter Cell) shine. This might sound simple, but the zone is constantly changing locations, forcing you to be mobile and adapt to your surroundings. In Occupy, there’s only one zone you need to capture. Place one or two of these down to block enemy bullets while you and your allies fire back through the one-way barrier. Once a zone is yours, you’ll need to hold onto it, and that’s where the Phantoms’ Mag Barrier comes into play. If all else fails, remember the Purifier The Cleaners’ Ultra ability arms you with a powerful flamethrower that’ll roast anyone in your path. You might not survive getting that up close and personal, but neither will your opponents, leaving your teammates free to gain control. It’s a powerful ability that can instantly clear a zone of enemy presence, provided you can get in close enough to set it off. ![]() Or, if you’re looking to make a splash, their Firebomb ability throws a Molotov cocktail on the ground blanketing the immediate area in fire. The Cleaners’ Incinerator drone will lay down a strip of fire that can cut off routes, zoning the entire enemy team out or splitting them up. Because the points are stationary and holding them is the name of the game, you’re going to want Factions that specialize in area denial and defense, like The Cleaners (The Division) and The Phantoms (Ghost Recon). Starting with the Arena modes, we have Domination, where teams compete to capture and control three points across the map. To help you adapt on the fly and get an edge in each game mode, here are some recommendations for how to use each faction's strengths to your advantage. ![]() Linear matches put one side on the offensive and the other on defense, and force you to employ different tactics. Arena matches have both sides competing to achieve a higher score than their opponents in symmetrical gameplay. Game modes in XDefiant are broken up into two categories: Arena and Linear. For those diving into the Closed Beta this week, here are some starter tips for what we think the best faction synergies are for each game mode.Įvery time you spawn in XDefiant, you can choose your faction, which determines your passive trait, activated ability, and Ultra as well as your loadout, which determines the weapons you use. Each of XDefiant’s factions open new gameplay opportunities that can drastically change the way you play, which is helpful because each of the five game modes calls for a different strategy. The Closed Beta offers four playable factions with 16 unique abilities, five game modes across 14 maps, and 24 weapons with 44 attachments. original sound - News & More.XDefiant’s Closed Beta is here bringing fast-paced multiplayer first-person shooter action between factions inspired by different Ubisoft games. ![]() The XDefiant closed beta has now ended! | Just wanted to say thankyou for all the support on my page! | Let me know down below what you enjoyed most in the beta and also anything you think needs work on! |.
