![]() I’d have no problem running around in the woods like this and I much rather prefer it to having a larger bag with all my normal bedding and shelter in it. I used a lightly loaded HPG Tarahumara for my day bag and had no issues hiking around with the whole set up.Īdding the wool blanket to the Plash Palatkas did make for a heavy bundle, but using a wider roll made the whole thing very manageable and I was happy to find the added bulk wasn’t a big deal. I don’t really think it would work well for the two of us so I’ll probably end up using a plow point, but for one person this shelter works fine.Ĭarrying it as a bedroll over the shoulder works really well. This was a trial run to see if it would be viable for me and my son to make a shelter out of. I think a taller person would have some issues and I don’t think two adults could fit. I slept more or less diagonally and had plenty of space, but I’m also 5’9. The only downside is that the whole arrangement is a tight fit. I ended up in a tangle giving up and simply unhooking one of my corners (super easy to do if you slip it of the tent pole real fast) getting everything right and then hooking it all back up from my warm little bundle. Trying to shimmy on in without messing your bedding all up is quite the feat. Overall it worked well, one issue I had was getting into it. ![]() Originally I was going to be really traditional and only use a wool blanket at the last second I added my HPG Serape and let me tell you around 3 or 4 when the temperature dropped down to the mid 40s I was really happy to not be a starving conscript with just a wool blanket and fear of the NKVD to keep me warm. ![]() Now I cheated and used two Plash Palatkas because I wanted my shelter to have a floor so I wouldn’t be sleeping directly in the dirt because I’m a delicate little Nancy. With some added vegetation it would be really hard to spot I suspect. Now days they just come with the twine so I improvised and used my Cold Steel shovel as a tent pole.Īs you can see we end up with a very low profile shelter.įifteen feet away and it’s already wanting to disappear. So I made one and spent the night in it.Īs issued the Plash Palatka comes with two tent poles, some twine, and some stakes. I suspected a low profile shelter like the one in the link above using a single tent pole would be easy to hide out in and I was curious how useable it would be. If you’ve ever read German accounts of the eastern front during WWII one issue they constantly run into are well camouflaged Russians. So instead for my latest outing I wanted to try out the shelter method outlined in the Russian manual. I’ve been really wanting to test out a Plash Palatka shelter in the rain but all the forecasted rain recently hasn’t materialized.

Prior to leaf drop, needles turn a beautiful orange to reddish-bronze giving a spectacular fall display. ![]() The dawn redwood loses its leaves each fall, which is rare among confers. One other fascinating feature of this tree is that it is deciduous. Although it is the shortest species of redwood, it still reaches up to 200ft in height. The dawn redwood is a member of the Cupressaceae family, which includes its American cousins the coast redwood ( Sequoia sempervirens) and giant sequoia ( Sequoiadendron giganteum). Merrill distributed them around the world and the rest is history, leading to widespread propagation of the popular landscape plant. Upon receipt in 1948, Harvard botanist E.D. The scientific community and the general public were fascinated with this glimpse into our botanical past and the dawn redwood was named a “living fossil.” The exciting new find captured the attention of the US plant community and in 1947, Harvard’s Arnold Arboretum funded the extensive collection of seeds by Chinese botanists. This was a new species to science and one that spanned over 60 million years of time on the earth! By chance, Hu happened to have a reprint of Miki’s paper from 1941 and made the connection. Despite these challenges, complete specimens were collected and eventually ended up in the desk of Chinese botanist H. To further complicate things, World War II and the concurrent China Civil War were draining resources and further distancing the scientific community. Collection of additional samples was quite challenging as it required a difficult trek through 220 miles of remote mountainous trail that traversed dangerous “bandit-infested regions”. Wang’s specimen attracted attention from Chinese botanists, but without a complete specimen containing all the plant’s anatomy, botanical classification was not possible. ![]() The locals referred to it as shui-sa or “water fir”. A short time later, in July 1943, Chan Wang, a scientist with China’s National Bureau of Forest Research, discovered a tree growing in a small, remote village in West-Central China that he believed could be new to science. The genus consisted of 3 species that were all thought to be long extinct, but were found extensively in fossil beds throughout the Northern Hemisphere. Metasequoia fossils had long been a part of many Northern Hemisphere collections under a variety of incorrect names, but it was Miki that was first able to describe the genus correctly. In 1941, a Japanese paleobotanist described a sequoia-like species from fossils of the plant found in Pliocene fossil beds near Tokyo, naming it Metasequoia. This discovery has been noted to be one of the greatest for botany in the 20th century and the story behind the find is certainly a noteworthy tale in world history. ![]() Have you ever wondered what the earth looked like when the dinosaurs roamed? Humans didn’t realize that we have a living fossil among us that offers a glimpse into the past until the 1940s when the dawn redwood tree ( Metasequoia glyptostroboides) was “discovered” by scientists in China. Mobile received $1.8 million in CARES Act funding, $1.5 million of which went to Legal Services of Alabama to help Mobilians who are in the process of being or have been evicted. Census, 28.7% of the adult renters in Alabama have no or slight confidence in their ability to make next month’s rent payment. Census, 11.3% of adults in Alabama either missed last month’s housing payment or have little to no confidence that they can pay next month’s housing payment.Īccording to the U.S. AHFA expects to accept applications from landlords and tenants beginning March 1.Īlabama had an estimated excess of 621 COVID-19 deaths after a statewide moratorium expired on May 31.Īccording to the U.S. Governor Kay Ivey authorized the Alabama Housing Finance Authority (AHFA) to implement the state’s new $263 million COVID-19 emergency rental assistance program. ERA Alabama says that if local rent relief programs are not operating yet, ERA Alabama might accept their application. People are still being evicted and we can offer them assistance right now.” While Alabama renters began applying for the statewide emergency rental assistance program on March 1, residents of Huntsville and Madison County have been unable to apply for their local rental assistance programs. Commissioner Violet Edwards opposed the postponement saying, “On Monday, there were 800 people on the docket for eviction. The Madison County Commissioners postponed the start of the Emergency Rental Assistance Program to make decisions as to who will be eligible for the assistance and who will distribute the funds. ![]() ![]() The application process for Alabama Housing Finance Authority's "Emergency Rental Assistance Alabama" ( ERA Alabama) program began March 1. Visit our searchable database and map which allows some renters to identify if their home is covered by the CARES Act eviction moratoriums. This tracker links to news reports of the growing evictions crisis in various cities and states. See NLIHC’s top priorities for the next COVID-19 relief bill. Congress should also provide additional resources and protections to address the health and housing needs of America’s lowest-income resources and people experiencing homelessness. Congress should extend the federal eviction moratorium through the duration of the public emergency and address the moratorium’s shortcomings by improving and enforcing the order. The federal eviction moratorium, does, however, have significant shortcomings that undermine its public health impacts. ![]() The temporary moratorium on evictions extends vital protections to tens of millions of renters at risk of eviction for nonpayment of rent during the global pandemic. A federal eviction moratorium issued by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) is in effect from Septemto March 31, 2021. ![]() ![]() The heat build-up caused the generation of hydrogen gas. The loss of electrical power halted cooling systems, causing heat to build up. Many electrical generators ran out of fuel. The tsunami caused the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster, primarily the meltdowns of three of its reactors, the discharge of radioactive water in Fukushima and the associated evacuation zones affecting hundreds of thousands of residents. The official figures released in 2021 reported 19,759 deaths, 6,242 injured, and 2,553 people missing, and a report from 2015 indicated 228,863 people were still living away from their home in either temporary housing or due to permanent relocation. The snowfall which accompanied the tsunami and the freezing temperature hindered rescue works greatly for instance, Ishinomaki, the city with most deaths, was 0 ☌ (32 ☏) as the tsunami hit. Residents of Sendai had only eight to ten minutes of warning, and more than a hundred evacuation sites were washed away. The earthquake triggered powerful tsunami waves that may have reached heights of up to 40.5 meters (133 ft) in Miyako in Tōhoku's Iwate Prefecture, and which, in the Sendai area, traveled at 700 km/h (435 mph) and up to 10 km (6 mi) inland. It was the most powerful earthquake ever recorded in Japan, and the fourth most powerful earthquake recorded in the world since modern seismography began in 1900. The disaster is often referred to as simply 3.11 (read san ten ichi-ichi in Japanese). It is sometimes known in Japan as the " Great East Japan Earthquake" ( 東日本大震災, Higashi nihon daishinsai ), among other names. It lasted approximately six minutes, causing a tsunami. On 11 March 2011, at 14:46 JST (05:46 UTC), a M w 9.0–9.1 undersea megathrust earthquake occurred in the Pacific Ocean, 72 km (45 mi) east of the Oshika Peninsula of the Tōhoku region. I view it as a priority to empower these people to make the best career decisions, then guiding them towards career success. Others have already made the leap into consulting and now find themselves confronted with the recurring challenges that consulting business and its institutions regularly present. Many people share the dream of becoming a management consultant and perhaps even starting their career at one of the world’s leading consulting firms. I finished my studies in economics at the universities of Heidelberg, Jyväskylä (Finland) and Bonn as best in class.Īgain and again, I have been asked for advice on (consulting) career decisions. Moreover, I maintain a strong network of consultants who work for various firms and contribute their knowledge to YOUinConsulting.īefore becoming a management consultant, I completed a PhD at Imperial College London on the economics of climate change. I was also selected as one of 20 finalists from 2000 applicants for McKinsey’s “CEO of the Future” contest to solve and present a consulting case study to a panel of German stock exchange (DAX) company board members. During this process, I have developed highly effective application and interview strategies. I have attended many consulting firms’ recruiting workshops (including several “top events”). Furthermore, I have interviewed with virtually all leading strategy consulting firms as well as some medium-sized consultancies. Among other activities, I did internships at McKinsey’s competitor Roland Berger, in “Big Four” firm Ernst & Young (EY)’s transaction advisory services unit and at a medium-sized consulting firm. ![]() These consulting projects have led me to America, Asia and Europe, covering both developing as well as industrialized countries, and I indeed have some “war stories” to tell…Īlready prior to joining McKinsey I had researched the industry intensely. As a focus, I supported strategy projects in the raw materials industries and served clients in banking and mechanical engineering. Prior to serving as an independent management advisor, I worked for five years as a consultant and project manager for the world’s leading management consulting firm, McKinsey & Company. I established my consulting expertise over a number of consulting-related experiences and activities. ![]() While a direct approach is now possible, I can consider other options to deal with him. I've found a way into the restricted areas that lead to Deadlight's captain's quarters where Benweth currently resides. Mirke will be happy to get her hands on it. I've acquired Aeldys' private stock of rum. The keys to the cells should be by the jailer's post or on her person. Lamond's crew is imprisoned in the brig, found in the southeastern part of the dungeons. Lamond has promised to unlock a door to the fort's higher floors if I will free his crew from the brig in Deadlight's dungeons. A shipment of this prized liquour is now being loaded by crane on the eastern ramparts of the fort. ![]() Mirke thinks that some of Aeldys' special rum is just what the pirates need to throw a party at Deadlight's Court. It may be possible to draw Benweth out of Deadlight's well-defended captain's quarters by luring him with a raucous party at the fort's mess hall, the Court. The direct route to him appears well-defended, but perhaps there are less obvious ways to get around these obstacles. If you haven't placed a bomb then you have to speak to Benweth and try to intimidate him or kill him.īenweth has taken residence in the higher floors of the fort, behind locked doors and loyal pirate guards. Benweth will come down and start playing Harpsichord. Go back to Mirke and give him the stew. The guards have already went to the room where the party is and left doors open. Go to Deadlight Dungeon and talk to Cookie Maina. The party will start but you need to bring one more item to make it "wild". Go to the Eastern Ramparts, use stealth and get God-Killer's Rum. Tell her that Snakes Eyes cheats, she will leave the post and you will be able to go further. You can do it later but you have to do it BEFORE you give Mirke the stew. Place a Cinder Bomb inside the Harpsichord. You will find out what to do to make Benweth come to taverna and that Unlucky Ancret owes Snakes Eyes quite a debt. Go to Deadlight Court and talk to Mirke. Hoist up a Príncipi flag and dock at Fort Deadlight's port. Solution of this quest without the need to fight the pirates: He suggested that I could seek my vengeance in Fort Deadlight, and that we have a mutual interest in seeing Benweth fall. Two new locations will be added to the list of Known Locations - Dunnage and Fort Deadlight.įurrante, leader of the Príncipi sen Patrena, has revealed the identity and location of the pirate that attacked me at sea - a captain named Benweth who has taken refuge at the pirate haven of Fort Deadlight. ![]() While sailing the waters, you will be approached by another ship and forced into speaking with Captain Furrante.Īt the end of the conversation you will be able to invite Serafen ( Cipher or Barbarian or Witch (Barbarian + Cipher) to your team. You will get this quest as soon as you get your ship back and leave Port Maje Island. It's not as small or quiet but comes with a couple of jars for single-serves, plus one resealable lid.Your nutritionist called, and the word on the street is that you're not eating enough fruit. If you want a budget-friendly blender with more jars for smoothies, you might prefer the Magic Bullet Blender MBR-1101. There's also an eight-ounce cup for small amounts of dip or salad dressing. Unlike every other blender listed here, it doesn't come with a to-go lid, but it has a cup ring, which helps with drinking directly from the jar. It only comes with one jar suitable for smoothies and has a relatively small 13-ounce capacity. However, it's hard to use for recipes like nut butter and isn't intended for ice-crushing. It takes longer to make a single-serve smoothie, but you don't need to constantly push down on the jar to blend. Despite its lower price, it makes smooth blends with fibrous ingredients, meaning it can make fantastic smoothies and shakes with ingredients like kale. It's usually significantly cheaper than the Ninja Fit and is shorter and lighter, so it's worth considering if you don't have a lot of space in your kitchen. The Magic Bullet Mini is a great option if you're looking for a cheap, small blender. However, compared to similarly-priced options from that brand, like the Ninja Nutri-Blender Pro with Auto-iQ or the Ninja Nutri-Blender Plus, the ZWILLING is quieter and takes less time to blend a smoothie. If you want an ice-crushing bullet blender, you might prefer one of Ninja's personal blenders. You could use it to crush ice, unlike the NutriBullet, but it's not very good at it. It's extremely easy to use for recipes like nut butter, which is rare for a bullet-style blender and might come in handy if you make small batches of almond or peanut butter for protein shakes. While it won't completely liquify leafy greens and fruit like our top pick, it will still do great with most smoothie recipes, so your drink won't be grainy or have leafy pieces left over. Its design makes it stand out from similarly-priced options from popular brands like NutriBullet and Ninja, and you may prefer it just for its sleeker design and premium-looking 24oz jar. This blender is around the same size as the NutriBullet, and just a bit heavier. The best upper mid-range bullet blender we've tested is the ZWILLING ENFINIGY Personal Blender. You need to clean the blade assembly by hand, though. The blender is easy to clean by hand, and the jars and lids are dishwasher-safe. ![]() However, you can't use it to crush ice without liquid in the jar, so it's not suitable for making crushed ice for cocktails or slushies, but a few ice cubes in your smoothie or shake recipe are fine. It's easy to operate since you simply push down on the jar and rotate it to blend. It's also a great option for making small batches of recipes like nut butter, hummus, and other spreads and dips. It comes with a pair of 32-ounce jars with matching cup rings and to-go lids to drink your smoothie from the jar. Even if you use stubborn fibrous ingredients, your drink will have virtually no grains or unprocessed bits left over. This blender is worth considering if you make smoothies and shakes with ingredients like leafy greens, fruit, and seeds. ![]() ![]() ![]() The NutriBullet Pro 900 is the best bullet blender that we've tested. ![]() OK Industries remains one of the leading industrial suppliers of wire wrap tools and supplies. Bell Telephone Laboratories developed the system, and OK Industries, which was founded in 1946, pioneered the process. Simple it's a wire connection system that uses a special tool to tightly wrap a small gauge solid wire around the sharp corners of a connection post. A system back plane with thousands of wire terminations is typically completed in a few days. Nimble-fingered production assemblers, armed with pneumatic wire wrap guns, an assortment of pre-stripped wires, and computer printouts of wiring charts, are amazingly fast and accurate. It is ideal for complex one-of-a-kind circuits and systems. Wire wrap has been successfully used for decades by the telecom/datacom and controls industries. It's relatively fast, reliable, simple, solderless, inexpensive, and easy to learn. There is another alternative … wire wrap. PC board fabrication is not necessarily the next step. Part way into the project, too many connections too close together turn it into an unmanageable mess.Ĭonstruction articles found in electronics magazines use printed circuit boards for all but the simplest circuits, so investing time and money into the PC board fabrication process seems to be the next logical step, albeit a bit daunting for the new hobbyist. The neophyte soon finds out that assembling a more complex circuit onto perf board is an exercise in futility. ![]() ![]() They find it's time to move on to bigger and better circuits. Electronics hobbyists evolve through a series of circuit-building techniques, starting with the simplest of the simple, such as wire nuts or twisting component leads together, to designing, fabricating, and assembling their own printed circuit boards.Īfter successfully building a few simple circuits on perf board, and perhaps a small kit or two, confidence rises. ![]() had partnered with the Indoor Auto Racing Series to expand coverage to a potentially worldwide audience.
