7/2/2023 0 Comments Radar extreme![]() For most durations, significant regional differences in extreme rainfall in the Netherlands are found. GEV distributions are fitted to these annual maxima. The climatological radar rainfall data set is utilized to obtain annual rainfall maxima for durations of 15 min to 24 h and the size of a radar pixel. This hampers the study of regional variability in extreme rainfall and the estimation of extreme areal rainfall, which can be overcome by using weather radar. In general, only few digitized time series from rain gauges are available for subdaily durations. Verification shows that the radar data set has a high quality. Since radar data can be vulnerable to a number of errors, they are adjusted using rain gauges. A 10-year radar-based climatology of rainfall depths for durations of 15 min to 24 h is derived for the Netherlands. Weather radars are widely used in real-time quantitative precipitation estimation over large areas with high temporal and spatial resolutions not achieved by conventional rain gauge networks. Therefore, uncertainties in the DDF curves are estimated as well. Often, uncertainties are not incorporated in the design of hydraulic structures, which can lead to a risk of under design. Using a new methodology, rain gauge data from 12 stations in the Netherlands are employed to derive rainfall depth-duration-frequency (DDF) curves, which describe rainfall depth as a function of duration for given return periods. ![]() In this thesis, the Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution is used to model annual rainfall maxima. Subsequently, a probability distribution is fitted to the selected maxima, so that rainfall depths can be estimated for a chosen return period, which can be longer than the rainfall record. Such a climatology can be obtained by abstracting maxima from long rainfall records. Therefore, a reliable climatology of extreme rainfall is of importance, for instance, for the design of hydraulic structures. Extreme rainfall events can have a large impact on society and can lead to loss of life and property. ![]()

![]() ![]() William Shatner, Captain Kirk from “Star Trek” and the oldest person to fly to space, serves as host from mission control. Twelve celebrities, including former cyclist Lance Armstrong, Ariel Winter of “Modern Family” and Tom Schwartz of “Vanderpump Rules,” are put in a Mars simulation and presented with a series of challenges to colonize their version of the Red Planet. “Who’s left to pray to/What’s the difference in breakdown and a breakthrough?” he sings. The 13-tracks include the powerful anti-gun violence song “Save The World” and the intimate “Death Wish,” with a partner struggling to help the other cope with their self-destructive behavior. The singer-songwriter has already been the subject of the HBO documentary “Running With Our Eyes Closed” and got a role in Martin Scorsese’s movie “Killers of the Flower Moon.” Now comes the album “Weathervanes” with his band the 400 Unit. It’s back to his day job for Jason Isbell. “’Cause for your love, I’ll take my time/Just wanna feel your hips on mine,” Monáe sings in the single “Lipstick Lover.” Another offering is “Float” featuring Seun Kuti and Egypt 80, which has been used by the NBA and contains the line “It’s hard to look at my resume and not find a reason to toast.” The album packaging and fold-out sleeve contains a hidden surprise for listeners: a close-up painting of Monáe’s chest. ![]() Sensuality will be on tap when Janelle Monáe releases “The Age of Pleasure,” her first album since 2018. Niall Horan shows back up with “The Show,” his third solo album and first since 2020’s chart-topping “Heartbreak Weather.” A coach for “The Voice” and former member of One Direction, Horan has released two singles from the new collection - the sweeping and driving “Heaven” and the catchy “Meltdown,” a musical promise that ”when it all melts down/I’ll be there.” He’s also announced his first headlining shows in six years as well as his biggest venues to date across Europe, Oceania and North America. As “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” hits theaters, Disney+ is streaming all four previous “Indiana Jones” movies, plus the series “The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones.” Since May 31, subscribers have been able to watch “Raiders of the Lost Ark,” “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom,” “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade” and “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull." And, yes, “Raiders” is still No. Directed by Eva Longoria, the movie is based on Montañez's memoir, “Flamin’ Hot: The Incredible True Story of One Man’s Rise from Janitor to Top Executive.” Though reports have cast doubt on the veracity of his claims, “Flamin' Hot” abides by the old movie maxim: Print the Frito-Legend. ![]() Now, it's Cheetos' turn. “Flamin' Hot,” which debuts Friday, June 9, on Hulu, is about Richard Montañez, a Frito-Lay janitor who claims to have invented the spicier Flamin' Hot Cheetos. Nike,Tetris and Blackberry have all gotten the big-screen treatment this year. “The Way of Water” has made $2.32 billion at the box office, trailing only the $2.9 billion of the original “Avatar” and the $2.79 billion of “Avengers: Endgame.” In her review, AP Film Writer Lindsey Bahr called “The Way of Water,” “a truly dazzling cinematic experience that will have you floating on a blockbuster high.” “Avatar: The Way of Water” finally washes onto streaming shores Wednesday. James Cameron's sci-fi sequel will begin streaming on Disney+ and HBO Max after becoming the third highest-grossing movie of all time in theaters. ![]() Albums from Janelle Monáe and Niall Horan, as well as a TV movie about a Frito-Lay janitor who claims to have invented Flamin’ Hot Cheetos are among the new television, movies, music and games headed to a device near you.Īmong the offerings worth your time as selected by The Associated Press’ entertainment journalists are the streaming debut of “Avatar: The Way of Water” and the celebrity-stuffed “Stars on Mars,” where the likes of Lance Armstrong and Ariel Winter are put in a Mars simulation and presented with a series of challenges to colonize their version of the Red Planet. ![]() 7/2/2023 0 Comments Day and night book![]() Server 2: "Kasa Heath" - 21:21 (night).Server 1: "Wind Pattern Forest" - 21:23 (night).As I logged in, the in-game times for each server were listed as follows: When I started this next step my local time corresponded to ~7:20pm/19:20 US west coast, or ~10:20pm/22:20 US east coast. I just logged into all US servers to check the in-game time, which you can do using a lite "debug" screen, which you can access by pressing the right Alt (or AltGr) key. There also used to be only 2 regions (US and EUR) but there are now servers for Asia as well.

Whatever the reason may be, Condemned 2 doesn't have the sense of urgency or power that the first game did. Or it may be because some parts of Condemned 2 appear written into the story simply because the level designers had a good idea. Perhaps this is because Monolith had to at once tie up all of the loose ends (of which there were many) of the first game and create a stand alone story for new initiates. While Condemned 2 starts off with a bang, the story is oddly unsatisfying by the end. A focused story is not always a better one. ![]() Regardless, the story here is presented in a more focused manner with cutscenes book ending each chapter and an easy to follow tale that continues to unfold as you play. The sequel can stand on its own but it certainly is more enjoyable if you have the first game under your belt. Of course, the first game was never released on PS3 so comparisons are a bit moot. You won't have that problem with the sequel. The narrative of Condemned: Criminal Origins imploded towards the end of the game, leaving many confused as to what the ending meant. As a survival horror game, it should come as no surprise that things get crazy fast and the story quickly diverts down a supernatural path. Things start with a search for the missing Van Horn, an old friend of Ethan's. Against Ethan's will, Condemned 2 drags the protagonist back into action. It's a sad state of affairs, but an interesting gameplay mechanic to be sure.Ĭlick here to watch the video review. Not quite Leaving Las Vegas bad, but the sauce has become such a part of his life that he can't hold a gun steady without first downing a bottle. The alcoholic stupor he lives in has taken its toll and this game finds him battling demons both real and imaginary. Ethan Thomas, our unlikely hero, has fallen on hard times since leaving his job as an SCU agent. Condemned 2 picks up several months after the first game ended. ![]() 7/2/2023 0 Comments Map of papyrus ancient egypt![]() Then, in 2013, during his third digging season, he came upon something quite unexpected: entire rolls of papyrus, some a few feet long and still relatively intact, written in hieroglyphics as well as hieratic, the cursive script the ancient Egyptians used for everyday communication. During his first digging season, in 2011, he established that the caves had served as a kind of boat storage depot during the fourth dynasty of the Old Kingdom, about 4,600 years ago. The latter two may be copies of the first one.Following notes written by an English traveler in the early 19th century and two French pilots in the 1950s, Pierre Tallet made a stunning discovery: a set of 30 caves honeycombed into limestone hills but sealed up and hidden from view in a remote part of the Egyptian desert, a few miles inland from the Red Sea, far from any city, ancient or modern. All of these are from barque stands and date to the reigns of Amenhotep III, Seti I and Ramesses III. There are only a handful of scenes that show the King himself performing the ritual. This matches a scene from the Temple at Abu Simbel from the time of Ramesses II. There are several examples of Barque stands from the reigns of Amenhotep III ( Hermopolis), Taharqa ( Jebel Barkal), and Atlanersa (Jebel Barkal) that show two river gods performing the rite. Often the gods are Horus and Set, or on occasion Horus and Thoth. Many of the depictions of the unification show two gods binding the plants. It is not known if this was perhaps a rite that would have been enacted at the beginning of a reign, or merely a symbolic representation. There are many depictions of the ritual unifications of the Two Lands. The two ladies are Nekhbet, the vulture goddess associated with Nekhen in Upper Egypt, and Wadjet, the cobra goddess associated with Buto in Lower Egypt. The other dualistic title is the Two Ladies name or Nebty name. ĭuring the first dynasty, dualistic royal titles emerge, including the King of Upper and Lower Egypt ( nswt bjtj) title which combines the plant representing Upper Egypt and a bee representing Lower Egypt. Sometimes, the duality is further extended by having the knotted plants extend and bind foreign foes (both from the North and the South) as well. The duality is an important part of royal iconography. The binding motif represents both harmony through linkage and domination through containment. The union of Upper and Lower Egypt is depicted by knotted papyrus and reed plants. Hapi tying the papyrus and reed plants in the sema tawy symbol for the unification of Upper and Lower Egypt ![]() On the Narmer Palette, the king is depicted wearing the Red Crown on one scene and the White crown in another, and thereby showing his rule over both Lands. Ancient Egyptian tradition credited Menes, now believed to be the same as Narmer, as the king who united Upper and Lower Egypt. Thus, the pharaohs were known as the rulers of the Two Lands, and wore the pschent, a double crown, each half representing sovereignty of one of the kingdoms. 3000 BC, but each maintained its own regalia: the hedjet or White Crown for Upper Egypt and the deshret or Red Crown for Lower Egypt. The two kingdoms of Upper and Lower Egypt were united c. The terminology "Upper" and "Lower" derives from the flow of the Nile from the highlands of East Africa northwards to the Mediterranean Sea. To the south was Upper Egypt, stretching to Aswan. To the north was Lower Egypt, where the Nile stretched out with its several branches to form the Nile Delta. Structure Īncient Egypt was divided into two regions, namely Upper Egypt and Lower Egypt. Queens consort might use a feminine versions of the second title, "lady of The Two Lands" ( nbt-tꜣwj), mistress of the Entire Two Lands ( hnwt-tꜣwy-tm), and mistress of the Two Lands ( hnwt-tꜣwy). Queens regnant were addressed as pharaohs and male. Standard titles of the pharaoh included the prenomen, quite literally "Of the Sedge and Bee" ( nswt-bjtj, the symbols of Upper and Lower Egypt) and "lord of the Two Lands" (written nb-tꜣwj). The trachea stood for unification, while the papyrus and lily plant represent Lower and Upper Egypt. The Egyptian title zmꜣ- tꜣwj ( Egyptological pronunciation sema-tawy) is usually translated as "Uniter of the Two Lands" and was depicted as a human trachea entwined with the papyrus and lily plant. ![]() The conception of Egypt as the Two Lands was an example of the dualism in ancient Egyptian culture and frequently appeared in texts and imagery, including in the titles of Egyptian pharaohs. In Egyptian history, the Upper and Lower Egypt period (also known as The Two Lands) was the final stage of prehistoric Egypt and directly preceded the unification of the realm. ![]() ![]() ![]() Chewing gum Dubble Bubble Cotton candy Bubble gum Flavor, chewing gum, food, text, logo png 500x500px 222.01KB.round pink illustration, Chewing gum Bubble gum Dubble Bubble Gumball machine, Chewing gum bubble free pull s, comics, free Logo Design Template, natural png 964x938px 112.23KB.Chewing gum Gumball machine Cotton candy Bubble gum, chewing gum, food, easter Egg, grocery Store png 500x500px 484.46KB.Chewing gum Gumball Watterson Gumball machine Bubble gum, pink cartoon, sphere, pink Cartoon, amazing World Of Gumball png 1263x2325px 899.75KB.Cartoon Network Gumball Watterson Animated series Television, Animation, television, flower, fictional Character png 3000x3000px 831.27KB.Darwin Watterson Gumball Watterson Anais Watterson Drawing, cartoon characters, orange, cartoon, cartoon Characters png 1547x1600px 212.58KB.Gumball Watterson Darwin Watterson Nicole Watterson Anais Watterson, chewing gum, logo, fictional Character, cartoon png 742x1077px 150.27KB.pink and white candy dispenser, Chewing gum Gumball machine Candy Bubble gum, Jar of candy, food, color, candies png 573x1800px 928.94KB.Frosting & Icing Chewing gum Bubble gum Gumball machine Flavor, chewing gum, food, baking, oil png 1067x1600px 1.06MB.Chewing gum Bubble gum Sugar substitute, chewing gum, angle, food, rectangle png 800圆07px 70KB.Chewing gum Lollipop Cotton candy Gumball machine, chewing gum, food, hard Candy, bubble Gum png 691x1280px 772.97KB.Chewing gum Gumball machine Candy Bubble gum, chewing gum, food, lollipop, bubble Gum png 500x786px 675.86KB.Chewing gum Bazooka Bubble Gum, chewing gum, purple, magenta, pink png 7751x8000px 2.23MB.Chewing gum Bazooka Bubble Gum, chewing gum, purple, magenta, paint png 581圆00px 84.76KB.Chewing gum Bubble gum, chewing gum, food, magenta, lip png 964x938px 113.27KB. ![]() Chewing gum Bubble gum Food Candy, chewing gum, gum Base, gum Industry, gumball Machine png 370x370px 74.36KB.Whether you are a vending route operator, a business owner, or just purchasing gumball or candy items for gifts, you can turn to us and buy with confidence when, where, and for as long as you need it.ĬandyMachines. is in business to help your business succeed.

Hell, we made a billion more mouths to feed in the last 15 years alone. The population of this planet has more than doubled since 1960. If there was no murderous conflict in this world we would destroy it even quicker. It's scary to think how easily our world could turn into something like Fallout. Endless cycle with an outcome that never means anything and just decays in the face of time. Disagreements, greed, fear, ♥♥♥♥ like that.Įven though the world has been burned by nuclear hellfire, and humanity is starting again. But war always starts over the same things. Yes the world has changed, and people have changed. Originally posted by THALE:As humans, we have a terrible habit of not learning from history. Meaningful to the people involved, but like everything else, it'll dissolve into corruption and then nothingness.ĭon't mean to be depressing here I was just curious about what everyone else had to think about this. I think it'll play into Fallout 4 because the story will be another struggle. "War does not determine who is right, only who is left." It was a joke made by Wadsworth in Fallout 3, but I don't think any phrase has rung truer regarding the Fallout universe than that one. That struggle will then be succeeded by another struggle, and that by another, and so on, with all of them going on in a background of meaninglessness. What "war, war never changes" means to me is that there will always be some sort of struggle, and that struggle will always have a conclusion. Caesar's Legion would probably collapse without Caesar there to lead it. A great example is the degradation of the NCR into the same state of corruption as the U.S. No matter what great things "chosen ones" do, they end up becoming corrupted/perverted by human nature and ultimately undermine themselves. Some form of contextualized morality seems to exist, but other than that, the world itself seems utterly devoid of meaning. To me, Fallout seems to be borderline nihilistic in the sense that history-and, indeed, life in general-has no purposeful progression or meaning. ![]() 7/1/2023 0 Comments Car dismantler pickup miami![]() Whether you have a car with a title or without, we can offer you cash for your junk car and make the process as easy as possible.

Take note of any keys that move sluggishly or get stuck at any point in their movement. ![]() Have the lid of the piano open while you do this and keep an eye on each hammer as it strikes the strings. Play each key several times in quick succession and at varying volume. The first thing to do when checking out a piano is to play every key on the keyboard, starting from the bottom and moving along all the way to the top. Once any fasteners have been removed, the front panel can be lifted away from the piano in order to get a better view of the action. Be sure to carry a flathead and a Philips-head screwdriver with you in case the panel is held by screws. The front panel is often held in by two clips, screws, or pins one on each end near the top edge. Start by opening the lid and looking inside of the front panel of the piano. If this is a piano that is only going to be used for your own enjoyment in your own home, you can probably get along with a lower quality piano just fine, even if it has some imperfections. Keep in mind that there are technicians who spend most of their time working with high quality pianos that are worth tens of thousands of dollars and that they may push you to purchase a high quality piano and consequently spend more money than you are comfortable with. Paying a piano technician to accompany you while you look at a used piano can be a great way to get a better idea of a piano's value and condition. If you find something that doesn't look right in a piano, you want to be able to communicate about it in a way that another person will know what you are talking about. I recommend familiarizing yourself with some basic piano anatomy. You want to make sure that you know of any serious problems before you open up your wallet and bring a 600+ pound piece of furniture into your home. With over 5,000 distinct parts in an upright piano action, there are a lot of things that can go wrong. Be diligent about doing your research before purchasing an instrument. In addition, there are countless different piano manufacturers that have existed over the past 100 years, some of which can be very hard to find any helpful information about. Between the hundreds of pianos on Craigslist, at piano dealers, thrift shops, estate sales, and furniture liquidators, it can be hard to know which style you want and which piano is worth your money. If you are looking to purchase a used piano, your options can be a bit overwhelming. ![]() |
