“Yes, the newest girl to be wed is responsible for the household chores. ![]() “New bride?” Uncle Amos leans against the railing of the stable and watches me. “I also did the cooking and cleaning for our house, but that was because I was the new bride.” I made friends, and I liked living there.” I shrug as we go through the stables, and he shows me some of the horses. “I didn’t know about you, or I would have come to get you.” His vow is solemn, and even though my time on the compound wasn’t all bad, I appreciate his concern. “Yes, my parents left me there when I was a baby,” I say, and Uncle Amos stops. He seems like the quiet type, but at least he’s trying to talk while he shows me my new home. “They told me you were on a farm,” he says, and I wonder if he’s used to having people here with him. Could all of my fears have been for nothing? This place seems like a dream come true. On the way to the barn, we pass some chickens, and I can’t get over how beautiful it is here. There are horses in the stable and cows in the fields. When we get outside, I see the big barn in the distance and the rolling hills around it. Come on, let’s show you around while we’ve still got daylight.” “But you’re a little lamb if I ever saw one. “I know,” he says and then shakes his head. “Yes please, Uncle Amos,” I say, and I watch as his eyes move down my body. “You wanna see the farm?” His deep voice fills the space, and I nod quickly. “I don’t know what they did with you before, little lamb, but it’s just you and me from now on. ![]() His dark eyes rake up and down me before he shakes his head. He’s got a dark stubble over his chin, and there’s dirt along his brow like he’s been wiping away the sweat. He’s quiet for so long I look up and watch him push his hat out of the way so I can see his face. “How many people will be sleeping in this room?” I ask softly. Some of my fears are put to rest when he shows me to a bedroom that’s much bigger than the one I had before. It’s a well-made home that might have been built by his own hands, and I instantly love it. Once we’re inside, I glance around and see the beautiful space. Little lamb? Does he not know my name? Instead of asking him, I follow along dutifully and keep my head bowed like I was taught. I’ll show you to your room,” he says before he grabs my bag and walks into the house. I’m left alone with this giant, and I have no idea what to do. They exchange a few words, and then she smiles at me before she departs. I swallow hard as he comes off the porch and shakes hands with the lady from the agency. He’s dirty and bigger than any man I’ve ever seen. When we get out of the car, there’s a man that comes from the house wearing overalls and a cowboy hat. “This is your new home, Faith,” the lady from the agency says as she pulls up to the pretty country home and parks the car. Now I’m going to a new place with Uncle Amos, and I hope he doesn’t mind. The man I was supposed to marry liked all his wives to dress this way, so I got used to it. When I left the compound, I was only able to take one suitcase with me, and most of my dresses are a little snug. I pull the front of my dress up so that I don’t spill out of it. That’s the kind of work I’m used to, so hopefully it won’t be too hard to figure out what to do. He lives far away from where I was raised, but I’m told it’s on a farm. ![]() Suddenly I’m being sent to live with an uncle I’ve never met or even heard of. Then one day the police came, and everything changed. Sure, we were on a compound and we could never leave, but my life was simple, and I found joy in my chores. At least it never felt like a cult to me. People say I was raised in a cult, but I don’t think about it like that. How to Block Adult Site in Your Smartphone?

"Those with lighter skin may have dark circles that result from the visibility of blood vessels, giving rise to a blue-gray color," says Dr. Onyeka Obioha notes that the main culprits are genetics, aging ("The loss of the deep fat under the eye causes the blood vessels under the skin to look more apparent, which in turn creates a shadow or darkness," she says), and chronic rubbing and irritation from allergies or eczema.Īnd while anyone can be prone to dark circles, they impact various skin types and tones differently.

Banjo Bottom then notices the primates and possesses the large mole boss. It is followed by the heroes finding Mole Miner Max and his subordinates loading a steam train with bananas.

The heroes are successful in besting the boss and repelling the tiki. The egg hatches, revealing the large bird Stu which gets possessed by Gong-Oh. However, Gong-Oh, other Tiki Tak Tribe leader, also meets them and uses its powers to throw down the primates inside an arena and put the egg inside a golden cauldron. At the end of the current world, they discover a big egg sitting next to a golden gong. Eventually, the primates then take on the Maraca Gang, a group of tikis controlling the pirate members of the Scurvy Crew, in order to move past the location, which they succeed in doing.ĭonkey and Diddy Kong then follow the Tiki Tak Tribe across the Ruins, where they explore ancient temples full of traps and go through a battle at the sea.

"The X-ray transient was an unusual event-it signaled that a relativistic jet was launched at the time of the explosion," says Dong. Through careful analysis, Dong established that the X-rays and the radio waves were likely coming from the same event. By examining this other catalog, Dong discovered a source of X-rays that originated from the same spot in the sky as VT 1210+4956. Some of these X-ray events were so short-lived that they were only present in the sky for a few seconds of Earth time. Yet, the gas shell itself, and the timescale on which it was cast off from the star, were unusual, so Dong suspected that there might be more to the story of this explosion.įollowing Dong's discovery, Caltech graduate student Anna Ho (PhD '20) suggested that this radio transient be compared with a different catalog of brief bright events in the X-ray spectrum. VT 1210+4956, the radio transient, occurred when the star finally exploded in a supernova and the material ejected from the explosion interacted with the gas shell. ![]() This gas shell had been cast off the star a few hundred years before the present day. This source is tied for the brightest radio transient ever associated with a supernova.ĭong determined that the bright radio energy was originally a star surrounded by a thick and dense shell of gas. Radio transients are an excellent way to identify unusual astronomical events, such as massive stars that explode and blast out energetic jets or the mergers of neutron stars.Īs Dong sifted through the VLA's massive dataset, he singled out an extremely luminous source of radio waves from the VLA survey called VT 1210+4956. Hallinan and his team look for so-called radio transients-short-lived sources of radio waves that flare brightly and burn out quickly like a match lit in a dark room. "But in this case, an invading black hole or neutron star has prematurely triggered its companion star to explode." This is the first time a merger-triggered supernova has ever been confirmed.Ī paper about the findings appears in the journal Science on September 3. "Massive stars usually explode as supernovae when they run out of nuclear fuel," says Gregg Hallinan, professor of astronomy at Caltech. Now, led by Caltech graduate student Dillon Dong (MS '18), a team of astronomers has established that the bright radio flare was caused by a black hole or neutron star crashing into its companion star in a never-before-seen process. In 2017, a particularly luminous and unusual source of radio waves was discovered in data taken by the Very Large Array (VLA) Sky Survey, a project that scans the night sky in radio wavelengths.

San Francisco delis and butchers are already feeling the effects of the shortage. One business owner in San Francisco recently stated that it is “like pulling teeth trying to get turkeys from the companies” at this stage…īut it’s not just the Thanksgiving bird that’s at risk - it’s your lunchtime turkey sandwich, too. The bad news is that supplies of turkey just keep getting tighter and tighter. The good news, if you want to call it that, is that you will still probably be able to get a turkey if you are willing to pay enough. But, you know, the 2020s haven’t been easy so naturally, the flu hit hard right in the middle of the year when it could do the most damage. Apparently, the disease normally doesn’t flourish during the summer as farmers get their holiday flocks together. Experts attribute it to the bird flu, which has devastated turkey stocks this year. Switching gears, with Thanksgiving coming up I wanted to talk about the fact that we are now facing a nationwide shortage of turkeys…Īs CNBC reports, the price of turkey is up 73% from last year, a pretty astonishing figure. Once that happens, our pharmacies will get really empty and our entire healthcare system will experience a historic meltdown. So if you think that things are bad now, just wait until war with China erupts. Well, we are being told that the primary reason is “a lack of raw ingredients to make the drugs”…ĬBC News quoted health officials who blamed “a lack of raw ingredients to make the drugs,” “an uptick in respiratory viruses fueled by the relaxed measures,” and “panic buying” for the shortage of painkillers for children.Īs I have covered in previous articles, most of the basic ingredients that go into our pharmaceutical drugs come from China. So why don’t the Canadians have enough Acetaminophen and Ibuprofen right now? The Canadian healthcare system is experiencing an acute shortage of basic painkillers, particularly acetaminophen and ibuprofen, which are commonly used to relieve pain and fever in children during flu season.Ĭanada’s Association of Medical Assistance in Dying Assessors and Providers (CAMAP) chose this perhaps awkward moment to roll out a webinar for healthcare professionals that advised them to offer assisted suicide to their suffering patients. If you can believe it, at this point the Canadians are facing “an acute shortage of basic painkillers”… In fact, according to the official FDA drug shortage list there are nationwide shortages of a whopping 183 different drugs in the United States right now. The warning specifically involves the powder, which pharmacists use to mix liquid Amoxicillin for childhood infections. Unfortunately, the FDA is warning us that we are now facing a very serious shortage of Amoxicillin…īoth are common childhood illnesses, for which the go-to prescription is in short supply, according to a recent nationwide alert from the U.S. We need Amoxicillin to treat some of the most common infections that our children experience.

That wasn’t supposed to happen, and now it appears that our supply chain problems could potentially get a whole lot worse. Do you remember in early 2020 when they told us that the shortages that we were experiencing would just be temporary? Of course some of them were, but then more shortages just kept on erupting. ![]() #2 Choice: Adobe Photoshop Elements Score: 8.3 Oh, and btw now you can save 27% on the new release of Creative Cloud editing tools.

If your tyres are getting too hot, lower the pressure. We’ve gone for 24.2psi on the fronts and 23.1psi on the rears, but you can adjust these values yourself. This is because you won’t be pumping so much heat into the rubber as a more erratic driver would. If you are easy on your tyres with a smooth driving style, you can generally afford to run higher tyre pressures. Ultimately, it depends on your comfort levels – if you consistently lock your front tyres, shift the bias rearward.įinally we move on to tyres, and again there’s a pretty simple choice to be made. 52% gives you a reliable car in the braking zones, and some people even prefer to run as low as 50% here. Then for your brake bias, you can go pretty far towards the rear brakes. However, if you find yourself locking up frequently, lowering this number by a few percentage points isn’t a bad idea at all. If you are good on the brake pedal, running 100% brake pressure will always help you extract the most performance from your car. There’s not so much to think about when it comes to your brakes. You could even try lowering your ride height for extra top speed if you feel comfortable. For ride height, 4-6 gives you plenty of clearance above the kerbs and tarmac so that your car doesn’t feel too skittish anywhere on the circuit. The higher rear value helps to prevent sudden snaps at the rear of the car, which can be a significant hazard in some parts of this track. 3-6 for the front and rear suspension stiffness works well for us, but if you find the car to be too twitchy, you could lower these values a little.Īs for your anti-roll bars, 1-9 gives you a manageable car which doesn’t understeer too badly in the middle of the high-speed corners. However, an over-sprung car becomes unsteady quickly, so you need to find the right balance. It’s important to maintain some suspension rigidity in Jeddah, as the sweeping corners require a responsive car to negotiate all of the high-speed direction changes. Now we move on to the settings in the suspension tab. As for your front wheels, a toe setting of just 0.05 is sufficient at Jeddah. ![]() Running with -2.50 and -1.00 on the fronts and rears respectively sacrifices a little potential lap time for a lot of drivability and consistency.Īs usual, your toe angles don’t have a massive impact on how your car drives, but cranking up the rear toe level to 0.44 can boost stability just that little bit more. furthest to the right on the scale) as it promotes stability and reduces tyre wear. Suspension geometry comes next, and for your camber settings we recommend playing it safe and using the minimum camber (i.e. For a race setup, an on-throttle setting of 65% with an off-throttle setting of just 50% works very well and helps to limit tyre wear as a bonus. If you want a more stable car in the traction zones, a lower on-throttle setting is required, while a higher setting offers a greater maximum output in terms of potential acceleration. As with your rear wing angle, the on-throttle differential setting can be used to encourage stability under acceleration at low speeds. Next up in the setup menu is the transmission page. If you find yourself struggling to accelerate smoothly, consider raising the rear wing a point or two. The high-medium front wing angle helps to ensure the car isn’t sluggish through the fast corners, while a higher rear wing angle provides stability in the multiple traction zones around the circuit. ![]() For Jeddah, we recommend going with a 7-9 setup on the front and rear wings respectively. Both your front and rear wing angles are crucial to a good setup, and the wrong wings can literally ruin everything.
