There he laid. A soldier, a fighter, a son, a boy.
"Consider this your warning" Shao spat. He laughed as he looked at the boys' motionless body.
"What's wrong child?" Shao sadistically said. "Come out and play." With that Shao fired a lightning bolt at the Avatar statue, shattering it to pieces.
Shao wouldn't stop. He set the place ablaze, constantly launching fire all over the area. He laughed at Toph huddled in the corner behind her pathetic bit of cover.
He approached her ceasing his fire attacks. His eyes flashed green. He was going to do it. He remembered how he had felt when he had done the same to that pitiful mongrel of a man back in Omashu. The way he wept and cried and screamed. The way he placed his hands on the man's head, how he knew what he was about to do but held nothing back. How he had bent his energy and not only took away the man's soul but ceased his earthbending for good. A gift from the almighty his dad had told him. To be able to take away someone's bending and how the Avatar slayed the last ever lion turtle to learn the ability himself. He hated how his brother had always ranted on about how it was a curse, but it was a gift and now he was about to send a message to the Avatar about his power.
Toph knew he was only a few feet away. She had felt so scared, as he had approached her but yet more exhilarated. She stood up slightly, blowing her fringe out of the way of her eyes to stop it from tickling her nose which broke her concentration. She was ready, just a few more steps. The daemon was right in behind her.
"Now it's your turn."
"No" Toph said raising her head as she did. Shao couldn't believe it. She hadn't shriveled and given up hope like he had predicted.
With that Toph punched him right in the mouth with her earth fist knocking him over. She had split his lip but had barely noticed. She was already up and earthbending boulders in Shao's direction. Shao didn't hesitate he jumped over the boulders then side stepped followed by breaking them with lightning. It was only when he finally put Toph on the defensive did he realize he was bleeding; not just in his lip but his arm and his leg. Toph had caught him with the sharp edges of the boulders. He eyebrows lowered, his face darkened.
"What's wrong scared of a little scratch poor thing." Toph mocked barely hiding her smile.
"GRR... I'll show you; ungrateful grunt."
Shao was enraged. He breathed steam from his nostrils. He raced at Toph about to launch fire at Toph yet she simply side stepped then raised a section of the floor slightly causing him to trip and fall over. Toph was unable to not giggle at the sight of the man fall so easily. He was so helpless. She raised earth shackles wedging him into the floor. She raised him up. She wanted so much to end it right here... and she could. It was so easy. She could grab Sokka's sword and do it. But she never would. That was something Aang had taught. She turned away from him.
"Oh well my loss."
Toph smiled but then stomped the floor blasting him right into the air followed by her launching a boulder right into his chest smashing him into the wall. She forced him to stick to the wall. He looked a bit like the son of the almighty in old Earth Kingdom mythology. It spoke of how the people nailed him to a cross and laughed at him while his followers cried. Maybe that was what she had done yet that's what he'd done to Sokka. So he deserved this. Does he? Something was telling Toph that this wasn't right to just leave him here. She couldn't think she turned around in shame.
"Poor child; poor stupid child."
Shao seized the moment. He blasted the couplets right off using lightning. He fell right down. No sooner he landed did he launch fire right at Toph. Toph knew what he was doing and went to dodge but found she couldn't move. The fire struck her right in her back causing her to fall forward. It was only when she started to lose consciousness did she realize there was another man in the room.
Zuko never knew how he would feel if he ever would be Firelord. He always thought he would collapse from pressure and fear of what would be expected of him yet he should have known he would always be safe and happy with his uncle at his side. Uncle was the one who had been there for him, not his father. If only his mother was with him now. Maybe she would give him what he needed for this situation. He had just got word that Omashu has fallen under military rule. Now king Bumi was imprisoned whilst the army have taken over the city declaring that king Bumi went insane and tried to kill them and Aang as well as allowing convicted criminal Shao escape. This was something he couldn't do alone. He had to find Aang and find out what was going on. He stood up and removed his amour and crown which allowed his hair to enter its rough and natural style once more. He then grabbed a quill, some ink and a piece of parchment.
He took a deep breath and began to right a letter to May whilst the rain patted softly against the walls of the palace.
The girl had awoken from her sleep. She seemed quite dazed on the chair in the cold, wooden shack. Shao didn't really care though. He was too focused arguing with his ridiculous excuse of a brother, Lee.
"No, you can't do this it isn't right," said his dummy of a brother obviously quite scared.
"I have two, it's what dad would want" said Shao quite serious.
"You really think dad would really want you to do this?" said his brother much sterner as though new confidence had crept into his voice,
"Yes, he would now step out of my way," Shao said.
"No!" his arrogant brother responded.
"What?" Shao spat back taking a step closer as he spoke.
"I said no!" Lee shouted in defiance.
He couldn't believe it. His own brother was going to get in his way. His faced morphed red with anger, the vein at the side of his head pulsed violently. "Then on your head be it!"
With that, Shao punched his brother clean in the face, followed by a left hook knocking him over. His brother quickly recovered, got back up and returned with a spinning kick to Shao's thigh followed by a fast paced fist heading straight for Shao's jaw. Then they were at it; a big scrappy brawl. Shao blocked it with his arm then punched his brother right in the nose. Crack. Blood rushed down Lee's face. He was dazed. This didn't stop Shao from laying into him even more however. Blood and sweat and saliva flew out of his face, each time becoming more and more lifeless. A crony in the room seised the moment to attempt to split them up but ended up getting knocked back by Shao roaring a flash of fire in his face, smashing his head on the wall. He didn't get up. He was too busy wailing and screaming in pain.
Shao didn't care what he did to the crying crony. All he cared about was teaching his stupid excuse of a brother a lesson. Lee gripped Shao's hand to his astonishment and kicked him off him and into the wall. Lee went to get up but stopped to stare at something moving.
Shao saw something zoomed past him but didn't think anything of it; he just grabbed his stupid brother and punched him again. "Stop...her" Shao raised his head to see what the dazed crony was groaning about. Then he saw her. The girl had escaped. He dropped his beaten brother and raced right to the door not carding that Lee covered in blood and his crony had a dell gash in his head.
He chased her through the meadow. The sound of the wind began whistling in his ear while the corn started rustling as he ran through it. He couldn't lose her. He wouldn't let his idiotic brother ruin everything. He soon caught up to her. She was bending the floor with her feet to increase her speed.
"Oh no you don't you clever girl."
Shao was starting the fire bend at her. She was dodging his attacks but not for long. He soon got a perfect strike. Slam. Down she went crashing right into the floor, tumbling down like a stack of logs. Now he had her with no distractions. He ran at her before she recovered and chi blocked her.
Toph was trying the get up but could not find the strength. She tried to bend the earth beneath but it would not yield to her. She could see. She felt cut off from the rest of the world. She was scared. Something she hadn't felt in a very long time.
"Now it's your turn." Shao hissed. "Consider your friend's injuries and what I'm about to do a warning for the Avatar." What did he mean? Was this something Aang had got her into? Toph was then picked up quite roughly by the daemon.
Shao stared at her helpless in his arms. He had her. He could do it and he was going to. He dropped her onto her knees then raised his hands to her face. He was so close he could touch her. But something wasn't right. They weren't alone. He saw out of the corner of his eyes a small object whizzed towards him. He threw himself back barely avoiding the object as it whizzed past him that had been shot with extreme precision.
"You can't kidnap a girl without someone noticing" said a voice obviously that of a man. Shao and Toph both turned their attention to the voice. It was a Water Tribe man.
"A lovely old man tipped us off about where you were going. Said he saw you wonder up here. Who've thought you'd choose the cliffs near the royal rumble arenas; and it seems he was telling the truth." the man finished quite pleased with himself for having found Toph.
"You think you can beat me? You can't even bend" said Shao not really agitated by the appearance of a non-bender.
"Who says I can't bend?"
"No true waterbender would point an arrow at a bender. They would face them on bending ground."
"You know the water benders laws of battle?"
"Yes. Besides that, I have this girl. One move and I kill her" Shao drew a knife and held Toph as a shield. The knife pressed on her neck.
"Oh you're right that is unfortunate" the soldier said with a half-hearted smile.
"Then it's a good thing I brought some friends." With that it must have been around thirty soldiers all rose from the meadow's complete cover. Toph, although she couldn't see, knew that they all would have weapons.
Shao knew he was beaten. He couldn't make a move without getting shot at by about fifty arrows (despite them being poorly and roughly made by amateur "warriors"). He had to do something: something to allow him to escape and not be captured but still get the message across of how worried they should be. He raised a very sadistic smile. "Well." He raised his hand to mouth and pulled his bottom lip down. He let it go and allowed it to flop for a moment. With that he continued to speak while the soldier looked at him smiling. "Oh well. I guess I should get to work."
With that he threw Toph into the to the side, launching fresh fire in Toph's direction.
The soldier ran forward. He wouldn't make it. He only had one choice. He leaped a good four meters and collapsed right on Toph taking the blast for her. Shao then launched lightning at his captors which set the meadow ablaze. Toph had finally recovered from the chi-block. She could "see" again. She threw herself up ready to go toe to toe with Shao again but he was gone, he had escaped in the confusion. Toph kicked the ground in frustration. She had him and he'd slipped away again.
"Miss. Beifong we have to go now!" said another soldier picking up the injured soldier who was groaning in pain. Blood dripped from his thigh were the fire had burnt through the skin. He screamed as he was lifted off of the ground.
Toph stumbled back, even she couldn't bares the mans agonising screams. Toph controlled herself quite disappointed she couldn't return the favour. "Yes sir."
Zuko had finally finished the letter. He knew May wouldn't like it but he had to do it. He had to find Aang and get answers before another war starts. He packed his things. There was only one problem. He was Firelord now. Who was going to keep the Fire Nation in check while he was gone? He made his way towards the only people he could trust. Once there he told them what his plan was.
"I need you two to be in charge while I'm gone. I would trust Uncle with this but he is all the way in Ba Sing Se. If you guys try to stop what me and Aang have spent all this time restoring balance and start another war so help me-"
They both raised their hands. "Zuko we realized a long time ago how corrupt your father had become."
"We both realize how important this is for you."
"We will control the Fire Nation whilst you go and find Aang."
Zuko smiled. "Thank you both of you." With that he stood up and made his way to the door. "Erm...Firelord Zuko." He turned back towards the old frail ladies.
"You are sure about this? You really sure?"
"Yes goodbye." With that Zuko embarked into the rain of the night off to the Earth Kingdom to find Aang and keep balance.
It was strange to think that all that had happened this morning. Going to school, getting into a legal fight with Jostin, seeing Sokka again, seeing what a monster he had become, then feeling depressed when seeing his motionless body, then being rescued by Southern Water Tribe soldiers.
Now here she stood on a boat heading all the way to the South Pole. A door opened. It was the doctor. Toph ran straight towards yet still didn't go right to him as she couldn't "see straight being on wood and not earth, sand or metal.
"How are they doctor?" Toph said concerned.
"The soldier has a severe scar on his back and can be helped no more here. As for the acting captain he has a severe burn mark on his stomach and may not be in the best of conditions but-"
"But!?" Toph said quite hopeful.
The doctor sighed and smiled. "He will live and be back on his feet within the next few days."
Toph smiled as and turned to the ocean. He was alive. Sokka was alive and she was going to see Aang and Katara and Appa and Momo again. She knew right there and then that, no matter how messed up it was going to be, her life was back to normal.

shown in screenshot... probably by design, but it looks odd.
Can you explain in more detail what you think is wrong with it Jason?
Do you mean the spacing between the avatar and the text?
If so then that is as designed.
It looks as designed. It may not look as good as other examples because the uploaded picture does not have that much vertical pixels.
If you look at a profile with a longer image it's clearer how it works.
For reference, the maximum avatar size is 192 x 384 pixels.
No longer an issue?

This interview originally appeared in the December 2015 (44.4) issue of POWDER.
PHOTO: Tom Zuccareno.
For Colter Hinchliffe, tips earned bartending at an Aspen cantina paid off in a big way on a 2012 trip to Haines, Alaska. It landed Hinchliffe some of the best lines of his life. The adventure also earned him an unexpected seat in a helicopter alongside the Teton Gravity Research crew and later a spot on their athlete roster.
Now, the 28-year-old Aspenite is the epitome of TGR's "tight, loose" philosophy—putting serious work in front of the camera while indulging when away from the lens.
"His story is skiing," says Josh Malczyk, brand director of Line Skis. Malczyk says Hinchliffe's ability to create his own content originally attracted the company to eventually sign him. "Opportunities present themselves in the weirdest ways."
In Hinchliffe's case, slinging drinks led to starring in ski films years ago. His easy-going attitude has kept him there since. —MIKE ROGGE
I tend bar to keep myself afloat in the summers. I get enough through sponsors to barely scrape through in the winter and pay regular bills. It's great. When summer hits, I usually have a little bit of debt from the winter to pay off.
I quit bartending right around Christmas. I do it in the summers right up until the holidays at El Rincon, formally known as The Cantina, in Aspen. I used to bartend at The Red Onion. I'll probably be back there next season.
I go to tequila and soda. Not a lot of people drink that. When someone orders it, I'm surprised. I enjoy the buzz and pace of tequila and it's light on the sugar so you don't feel like shit the next day.
My bartending is fast paced. I don't know a ton of specialty drinks. I want to be fun, have a few drinks, and be someone who's good to talk to. Sometimes I get carried away.
The social aspect and night schedule work well for me. I climb all day in the summer and bartend all night.
I meet the local drunks and out-of-town partiers. I try to attract girls to the bar. The more chicks in the bar, the more guys who are in the bar, the more guys we can sell drinks to.
Some patrons recognize me from TGR films. This one guy from Salt Lake contacted me through Instagram. He asked where I was bartending and came in for margaritas.
I like Instagram. I'm not trying to prove that I'm better than anybody else. Skinning to the top of the mountain at sunrise takes work, framing up a nice shot does, too. That's art.
I was reading 50 Shades of Gray. Some friends thought I would like it. I don't like it. He's a weirdo. She makes me a little sick to my stomach. Her firsthand accounts of giving…but you should read it, though!
The stigma of Aspen does exist. There are rich people. There is that snooty atmosphere, but it's only a small part of what I see in Aspen. We're the bottom feeders. Those rich people come in on their expensive jets, they sprinkle money all over town and into our pockets as bartenders. There is room for all of us to coexist.
My parents got us on the hill at the age of 3. It was a good way to get us out of their hair. They still ski a little bit.
We were doing it low budget. I was in Alaska in 2012 with [photographer] Will Wissman, Leo Ahrens, and Lexi DuPont. We were filming each other, taking turns, while Reggie Crist was guiding. We were trying to get footage of ourselves.
TGR was up there and I met those guys. I met [TGR producer] Greg Epstein, Tim Durtschi, and Chris Benchetler. Benchetler twisted his ankle and there was an open seat in their heli.
I was bugging them to let me go with them. They basically said, "Whatever, you can come and we'll see how it goes, but we're not going to use your footage, because your sponsors don't pay." You know, they've got all their politics.
I skied that classic line Sage [Cattabriga-Alosa] and Jeremy Jones rode called Dr. Seuss. I got lucky. I got going a little faster than I wanted to and somehow stomped it anyway.
It's cheesy, but skiing is the ultimate freedom for me. "The ultimate freedom" thing is said so much, but it's true. The last thing I would want to do is ski instruct. My ski days are mine.
It's a throwback to the '80s and '90s of skiing—having fun and a few drinks, skiing, and living this dream that we're lucky to live. That's what life is all about. This is what skiing is supposed to be like.

To make art is, in many ways, to remember fully: to hold together all the hard and good truths as one interwoven whole. In this issue, our contributors packed our pages full of meditations about the nature of memory—the way our minds cling to details like smoke rings drifting to the ceiling, or grimy outline of a bird who flew into the window.
All of these voices bear witness to the power of memory and recollecting, speaking to the rich and varied meanings of remembering—from the song of memory, to remembering the dead, recalling the faces of our loved ones, and to the mercy of being content with memory.

Tyres... The Big One. (Part III) - Realtime Model Batch Tests
by, 10-09-16 at 03:51 AM (5914 Views)
As you will no doubt be aware, a lot has happened in recent weeks. I would like to assure you all that despite the change in management, the blog will continue into the future.
Next up, to an answer to a question from the floor. I mentioned last time, that we basically optimize the tyre for their state that they see in corners. This is because the majority of lap time is gained through corners. You spend a significant portion of time cornering, corner apexes are also the slowest speeds you see on the lap, so you spend a good portion of time there. Higher apex speeds also mean you spend less time braking, even though prioritizing braking would allow slightly later braking. This is all a generalization, but cornering is predominantly the most important way to gain lap time.
With that out of the way, this is the last major part covering the tyres for the Brabham itself. Although we'll have one more post covering the finishing touches. Specific aspects of tyre design will also be covered in the future too.
Now, continuing from last time. We have our basic tyre created, its basic geometry is done, a lookup table has been generated. How do we tune, and improve the tyre further? How do we know whether the tyre correlates well to a set of data? Data that we either have in our hands, or sometimes as an abstraction in our minds (if we're unfortunate to lack hard data). It's time to get plotting. To help with this, we have a new spreadsheet to generate realtime batch tests to be used for tTool available here.
Realtime Batch Tests
To begin with, realtime batch tests provide a way for us to analyze a tyre over a given range of conditions and measure the outputs. Essentially, via these means, we're able to create slip curve plots, rolling resistance plots, aligning moment plots, deflection tests or just about anything else you might desire. The spreadsheet is simply a way to help generate these test cases. If you used the QSA Batch Test spreadsheet, then the realtime batch tester should feel somewhat familiar. I have tried to be somewhat descriptive within the spreadsheet, so be sure to check out the comments. To help get started, on the first sheet '1 General', you'll see another 'Information Desk:' describing some of the basics. Still staying with the '1 General' sheet, you should specify some basic data on the left side. The most important are fields are highlighted in orange 'Approx. Radius' & 'Max Load', among others, which are used to define the starting point of the tyre dimensions. They also define test boundaries to make the tests run quicker and keep them more relevant.
Next is to tackle the 'initial tests', named as "1 Test-Initial" in the spreadsheet. In similar fashion to the QSA Batch Tests, we need to collect some data from the tyres before we can generate specific tests optimized for them. Of course, realtime batch tests are performed MUCH faster than are QSA tests. A single QSA test can take between about 30 seconds and an hour (or more in certain extreme cases), realtime tests typically take a only a couple seconds each. So this should be done rather promptly. This sheet will look similar to:
A quick look inside the spreadsheet.
So what do all these things actually do?
Start - this is just defines a starting value, or base value to work from.
Step - Essentially, this is the linear value increment as for every step.
Step² - This is an increment based on the square of the Nth step value.
# of Steps - The number of total steps before resetting itself and starting from base again.
Step Count - How many times before lines we go before we actually consider the step to be an increment.
Disable Before - Disables the value BEFORE this Nth step. If you have a 'Fall-back' value defined, it will use that instead of leaving this blank.
Disable After - Disables the value AFTER this Nth step. If you have a 'Fall-back' value defined, it will use that instead of leaving this blank.
'Fall-back' - A fallback value to use if the step doesn't meet any criteria or results in an error.
For the initial tests, the pre-loaded values are set to recommended specifications, as such, if you filled the '1_General' sheet correctly, it should not require any alterations. However, the spreadsheet remains open to edit as you wish if you feel you'd like to do things differently.
Vertical Deflections
You should have already adjusted the tyre correctly to make the vertical deflections match some set of expectations via the geometry model (QSM, quasi-static model). Nonetheless, you may consider testing them (your tyre) within the realtime model as a verification or to aid in setting up the .TBC tyres to correlate. You can also alter the 'LoadVsDeflectionMultiplier' variable in the realtime section of the TGM file, which when increased, artificially makes the tyre stiffer vertically, while values less than 1.0 will soften the vertical stiffness. If you need to use a value significantly divergent from 1.0, you should consider an alteration to the design your tyre construction properties. It is clearly easier to do this while you're early in the design phase. In other words, it would be wise to ensure your tyre delivers accurate results in the quasi-static analysis section of ttool, prior to building entire lookup tables. Lookup tables may take 12-36 hours to generate, depending on your hardware, the detail of your tyre itself, and the number of test permutations of your lookup table.
Rolling Resistance
If you're satisfied with the vertical stiffness, the next thing to move onto is rolling resistance. All tyres produce some rolling resistance. This is primarily due to energy dissipated by the tyre tread through a process known as hysteresis. Essentially, kinetic energy is lost through resistance to deflection, converted to the form of heat energy. Therefore the amount of deflection plays a role as well as visco-elastic effects (essentially damping). Generally speaking, tyres with greater hysteresis also have higher grip. This benefit will be greatest on surfaces with a rougher road texture, but also wet surfaces where the opportunity for chemical/molecular adhesion is vastly reduced. In the end, rolling resistance is one of the first things to adjust. It is also relatively simple to alter. The fact that it has a direct bearing on other tyre attributes also gives it precedence. When creating the tyres, you will have run with some placeholder values. You will then need to alter them based on the results from such tests.
Damping is controlled by the following variables:BaseDamperPerUnitArea=(<lateral>, <vertical>, <longitudinal>)
VerticalDampingMultiplier=(<bristle1>, <bristle2>, <bristle3>, <bristle4>, <bristle5>, <bristle6>, <bristle7>)
The vertical damping multiplier refers to individual bristles in the cross section. From left to right, we have 7 of these 'columns'. The reasons the individual columns are adjustable is mainly to do with the fact that some distortion is partially ignored in the edges of the tread. The calculation is based on how much the tyre has been deflected, while this is fine in principal, it ignores some secondary distortion and flex, so this is a compensatory mechanism.
If your tyre's overall rolling resistance is about half what it should be, you'd roughly need to double the BaseDamperPerUnitArea (middle value) and HystereticVerticalDamperPerUnitArea. If it's too high, you'll need to reduce it by roughly the proportion that it's too high by. If you need more at lower speed, and less at high speed, you would increase HystereticVerticalDamperPerUnitArea and decrease BaseDamperPerUnitArea. As I touched on previously, you will need to consider that at higher deflection, the bristle is moving though a greater range and this will increase rolling resistance.
For the Brabham BT44, the expected rolling resistance coefficient is approximately 0.015 for the front, and 0.018 on the rear tyre (using the TBC values as the basis). From the previous blogs, we also know that bias ply tyres have a predisposition to a higher rolling resistance than do radial tyres. Furthermore, racing tyres place a greater emphasis on grip, than they do rolling resistance. As such, these tyres generally use a rather high hysteresis compound. So these particular tyres will have just about the highest rolling resistance of those used for any car. For example, we might expect around 0.007-0.01 for a modern radial street tyre, and 0.009-0.014 for a modern racing radial. It should be noted that these numbers are certainly not a one size fits all, but the vast majority of tyres will fall within this realm, at least under normal operating conditions (and on a hard surface). Rolling resistance also varies with load, speed, and temperature. As you increase load, deflection rises, and with it, rolling resistance does too. As such, it's a good idea to test under multiple relevant conditions.
One final thing to note about rolling resistance, is that the latest TGM variables, "StaticDiffusiveAdhesion=(,,) & SlidingDiffusiveAdhesion=(, , )" also slightly contribute to the overall rolling resistance. These variables effectively 'bond' the tyre to the asphalt, which in turn requires a force to separate from the asphalt, a phenomenon which also slightly extends the contact patch.
An example of the output of rolling resistance at various loads.
Lateral Sweep Tests
At this point you'll probably be eager to see where the peak slip angle is, and the overall shape of the slip curve. These can be performed with the tests provided by 4_FullSweep or 5_LatPeaks. There are also preset longitudinal tests provided @ 6_LongTest. Finally, you can try the '7_Combined' tests to generate a sort of 3dimensional table.
What do lateral tests look like? My own data for the BT44 tyres looks something like these:
Bias-ply tyres typically exhibit a wider peak slip angle, while more modern radials peak slightly earlier with a slightly larger falloff. Performing these tests will measure the data necessary to capture these characteristics in your own tyres. Of course, the lateral and longitudinal stiffness data for the tyres are ideally determined by the QSA batch testing spreadsheet I introduced last time. Those tests provide a good representation of the high detail model into the realtime model. Thus, if you find that the tyre ends up having too tight of a slip angle or too loose, you would ideally reconstruct your tyre with stiffer or softer belts, or bias-plies or whatever you feel might be the best way forward. The discrepancy between what you intended and the actual results essentially form the basis of how much you will need to alter the construction by. All else being equal, the peak slip angle is mostly dictated by the stiffness of the tyre in the tread area. Hence bias-ply's exhibit a wider peak slip angle than do radial tyres. Rubber stiffness and properties also have some effect and obviously temperature effects are not to be forgotten here. Something to note that might not be intuitive, is that at higher temperatures rubber will grip more optimally at lower sliding speeds, than at low temperature, which will find grip at higher sliding speeds. The flip-side is that the rubber can actually distort more at high temperatures as the compound softens. So the actual sliding speed at the surface may actually reduce as the temperature increases. For these reasons, there's no better substitute than testing the realtime model with the batch tester to establish these properties.
The sky is basically the limit when it comes to realtime batch tests, so feel free to test whatever you need, in whichever way you feel is best. For example, there are additional pre-configured tests (6 & 7) covering longitudinal slip or combined curves. They operate in a similar manner and are just basic examples of what is possible. The only difference is that for the longitudinal tests to be appropriate, we need to run an additional longitudinal slip offset value. Essentially, the purpose of this is to correct the 'longitudinal slip' to provide 0 longitudinal force at "0% slip".

The Chain Gang
I was part of it, for a long time. Maybe you were, too. Or maybe you still are. Some chains are worse than others. At first, I was thrilled to be a part of it, and then slowly the thrill wore off. Some chains are more binding than others. Maybe it is just your desk; maybe you have a whole cubicle to yourself or maybe your own office! Perhaps yours are more serious. Perhaps you own the company. Mine were of the most serious kind: I owned the business and the building. And, to add insult to injury, this business was neither the kind you could sell nor did it product any residual income. When I retired, I had only what I had saved myself from my own earnings. Wow! What a lesson!
Enter Relationship Marketing. This business model, think Robert Kiyosaki's teachings of building passive income, is my answer to the Chains that Bind. With Nerium International setting a number of "firsts" in the industry, a business model that is nothing short of brilliant and a product in the hot anti-aging area of beauty, I have a new life of fun, freedom, and financial opportunity for long term financial stability. It is my answer to the dilemma of the ups and downs of the 401K model!

The new chipset was designed to complement AMD's Scorpius desktop platform, a platform that will feature the 8-core "Zambezi" processor and support AMD Radeon HD6000 series graphics cards.
Asus launched its first AMD Fusion Eee boxes earlier this year at Cebit 2011, the Eee Box EB1020 and EB1021 and no, they are not routers! Both computers feature the same pre-optical drive but the EB1020 has an Ontario C-50 processor while the EB1021 has a Zacate E-350 processor. The AMD C-50 model is a 1GHz dual-core processor, has AMD's Radeon HD 6250 graphics, 1GB of DDR3 RAM, 250GB of storage space (running at 5400 RPM) and USB 2.0.
If you've ever wanted a roaring computer in the form factor of a laptop, this one is for you. ORIGIN PC is introducing the EON17-S mobile gaming computer. The EON17-S has a roaring (Intel Extreme Edition Core i7-2920XM 4.0-4.5 GHz with Turbo Boost, 8MB Cache) processor.
Acer has rolled out a nice update to the Aspire One 521, the Aspire One 522. While the new name probably doesn't shock you, hopefully the specs will. The 10-inch netbook features an AMD C-50 cpu running cool. In Acer's efforts to keep consistent with their hardware refresh, they are also updating the Aspire One 721 model to 722 and will be shipping the 11.6″ netbook with a 1366 x 768 pixel resolution.
Toshiba is rolling out three new professional notebooks with Intel's 2011 Core (Sandy Bridge) processors. The first out of the bunch is the Portege R830. This notebook gives users the option of an i3, i5, or i7 processor, faster Intel graphics, and USB 3.0 support with the option of Bluetooth 3.0. The R830 has a 13-inch display and is one inch thick.
Acer's new Iconia Tab W500 is looking better than ever. The tablet will run on a 10-inch display with Windows 7 OS and an AMD cpu with Radeon HD graphics. The tablet will also come with a keyboard docking station for your "laptop needs." The W500 has already entered a pre-order phase in Germany in March and is supposed to ship on April 15th in the United States. The tablet is expected to retail for $550. Although this tablet does look nice, I am not sure that it will work optimally with Windows 7.
MSI has launched a new notebook that was designed to serve your basic computing needs. The notebook, called MSI X370 is priced at $600 and features a commendable 1.6 GHz AMD E350 Dual-Core processor and houses Windows 7 Home Premium.

Joypad Transformer Toy
This toy is pictured below is not an ordinary game controller, its a transforming game controller!
To be honest, the joypad doesn't work. There isn't enough space to contain any electronics as it's only about half the size of a standard controller. However, over at Rock, Paper, Shotgun, they're posing a challenge to anyone capable of modifying it into a working controller. They'll even mail you the game controller if you manage to convince them of your gamepad hacking abilities.

Giveaway :: Ayres Beauty
We couldn't very well talk about "Endless Summer" without celebrating the one part of our body that deserves the most love and attention during the months of prolonged sunshine and warmth: our skin! It is always important to take care of our skin, of course, but I always find myself much more attentive when so much more of it is showing. It can be challenging in the oversaturated market of skincare to find a product that will satisfy not only our desire to indulge in luxury but also our need to pamper our souls.
Alejandro Rasic worked for 18 years in luxury perfumes and cosmetics before launching Ayres Beauty, his own all-natural body care and home collection infused with essential oils. Inspired by his native Buenos Aires, Rasic harnessed the beauty of the streets and bars and women of Argentina to create a signature line of aromatherapy body care and his intimate knowledge of all things luxe brings a level of sophistication to the products that you can't fake. The body polish alone is worth its weight in gold. If we're going to let summer stay awhile, I'm bringing Ayres Beauty along for the ride.
Ayres Beauty is giving away one $40 gift certificate to one lucky winner!
To enter to win, please answer the following question no later than Wednesday, September 11th. *Giveaway open to continental US only!* Comments now closed…good luck!
Please visit Ayres Beauty and tell us: How do you pamper yourself?
Start checking the winner's box on Monday, September 16th, to see if you've won!
I can't even think of one way I pamper myself, and that's a problem. Candles and body polish are a good start though! I wish the Internet had scratch & sniff!!
By taking a hot, long bubble bath while reading a book!
I pamper myself by purchasing good skin care products and guilty-pleasure books. I don't wear makeup, so it's important to me that I keep my skin in really good condition, not only because for health reasons but also because it just makes me feel so much better and more confident. And light, fun, guilty pleasure books are good for the soul! Another way I pamper myself is by allowing splurges on fun-but-not-necessary items every so often: Jonathan Adler book ends, beautifully packed and scented perfumes and candles, and the occasional blowout.
A variety of ways! In the end I think I look for whatever will make me have THAT feeling. You know the one ladies… That feeling where you are able to breath in and just be happy. To feel confident in your abilities and your place in life. To feel beautiful and in control and able to reflect on all of the reasons you love your life. Sometimes all it takes is a nice cup of coffee and a quiet spot on the patio, Or maybe its a long hot bubble bath surrounded by candles glistening off the white tile and reflecting off the mirror, occasionally it's a new top that just makes me feel beautiful, sometimes it's finding a quiet moment to cuddle up with my puppies and a good book, and other times it's getting a pedicure with my mom and laughing over a few sips of wine. I indulge in moments that make me happy, and depending on the day, the mood i'm in or even the season of the year it may be a different method!
I pamper myself by exfoliating my skin every night, wearing makeup everyday, and painting my nails every week.
Pampering (to me) seems more like a state of mind, thinking about celebrating life (rather than just doing this thing or that.) As I learn more how to live in my body, I learn more how to celebrate/pamper the happy fact that I am ALIVE! Yip! I think anything that you do that brings attention to your body and helps you live in your own skin is a great thing to do – however, I've still got tons of Catholic guilt about caring for my body with beauty products. I need simple acts of self care to love life, so I keep working on finding them. I pamper myself by buying the fruits and vegetables I want to eat. And by drinking coffee on occasion (which makes the whole world sunny to me.) I have started applying coconut oil to my legs too, something I've never done. In short, I'm thankful I'm learning to be thankful that I have a body.
i pamper myself by spending a fortune on a skin care line that does amazing things for my adult acne.
after years of doing my own hair, i decided it was worth the cost to have someone else do it and to relax and enjoy the pampering. and boy is it!
The Patagonia shower cream sounds amazing!! I am a facial lover at home or at the spa… location irrelevant:)
I adore getting a manicure; it never lasts very long on me, but while it does I feel oh-so sophisticated and classy 🙂
I pamper myself by steaming my face at night. My skin gets very dry in the winter months. Then I moisturize. My face feels great after that.
Taking a long bath with some decadent oils I have and then giving myself a pedicure
I pamper myself by using face masks at night a few times during the week!
Sitting on my deck in the morning with a cup of hot tea and enjoying a few quiet "mommy minutes" before the chaos begins.
Most days, having a shower to peace and quiet without wee intruders feels like pure decadence, but if I really want to pamper myself, I send my kids with my husband and I read for an afternoon and take a beauty nap. I never thought that just having a quiet moment in the afternoon sun with a few crisp grapes by my side would be so indulgent, but it is pure bliss!
By eating well 90% of the time, but by getting really high quality indulgence food the other 10% of the time. That and gold eyeliner. It's surprisingly versatile.
I have a hard time spending money on myself and am able to talk myself out of most purchases with surprising ease. That being said, once every 3 months or so, I let myself get something that my soul just craves, regardless of whether I really "need" it. It doesn't have to be expensive and it can't be something I require for my household. Once it was a super-soft blanket (I have tons of them already) in a blue tweed pattern for $20. Once it was a simple silver necklace I'd been eyeing up for over 3 years. Just a few weeks ago, I purchased a vintage 50s beaded bag in excellent condition for $25, because I knew I'd feel like a million dollars when I carried it at my friend's wedding in November. These little things make me smile and remind me to be nice to myself!
By lighting really yummy smelling candles in the house, even during the day. Having a beautifully smelling house and enjoying the glow of the candles seems like such an indulgence (not one that I grew up with) that I feel very blessed to use them!
Taking a bath and using a nice-smelling body wash, then hanging out for a couple hours just reading (for fun, not serious reading). If I don't feel like reading, then I'll watch a movie, something I've wanted to see for a long time…and make popcorn, or some sort of easy snack, like crackers and brie.
On Saturdays I usually sleep until around 10 am….my luxury 🙂
I give myself a "beauty night" once a week where I pamper myself and get all pretty for my husband!
With a pesky four-year old at hand always, finding me-time is difficult lately. Getting out a frazzled state right now means getting to the bathroom for a long shower, where I can shampoo my hair without being interrupted by a "What are you doing, Mama?" Lately, early evening showers have been the answer – when the boy is engaged, awake and entertained. Bliss. 🙂
I get a facial every month – just because my age is increasing doesn't mean I have to have wrinkles!
Honestly? By locking the bathroom door when I go pee. I can still see the little fingers under the door and their voices saying "Mama done yet? What you doing mama? Mama?" but it gives me a minute to myself and that in itself is pampering.
Every Sunday night, after the kids go to bed, I have an hour reserved for me time. I usually start by stretching and sipping tea for about 10 minutes just to loosen up and get rid of the days woes. Then i put on headphones and get lost in the music and do all those self-care things that I never seem to get to during the week….cut my nails, paint them, do a face mask, take a hot shower and deep condition my hair and then crawl into bed. It allows me regroup after the weekend and start every week with a fresh perspective. Is it Sunday yet? 🙂
I fine a hour or so every week to do something just for me..read part of a book, or watch a movie or just paint my nails while listening to music…whatever I feel like – it's my time. =)
I like to pamper myself with bubble baths and good books!
A long shower, a glass of red, dark chocolate, and a soul-consuming book.
Matching bras and underwear! You can be in jeans and a giant sweatshirt, but if your skivvies are cute and matching, it makes you feel just a little special and pampered.
I pamper myself with face masks and expensive body wash 😀 Thanks for the giveaway! xoxo
I wish I could pamper myself as often as I'd like, but since I'm a senior in high school, money and time are tight. 😛 But I guess it would be spa weekends with my best friend at our houses.
i'm a sucker for a good gel mani. i think if your nails are done it can say a lot about how you take care of yourself. i used to get a mani/pedi a few times a year and just do my own in between. but once i discovered gel manicures, i am completely hooked. i'm notorious for chipping my nails on the way out of the salon so the fact that they are dried instantly was a huge selling point for me. they usually last about four weeks on my nails if i use rubber gloves to do the dishes!
every so often, i like to use face masques, body butter, or scrubs to pamper myself. i get around to it every month or so and need to do it more!
I love to stop at my local 'foot massage' spa as a special treat. For $20 I get a wonderful massage AND an hour of alone time taking care of #1
I love a pedicure and manicure, and I use home facials and hair packs.
I like to dress myself up and go out! Not to anywhere particularly fancy, but it just feels good to get yourself all ready for something and enjoy the company of friends or that special someone! It's nice to treat yourself to dinner and smiles every once and a while.
I make a lot of my own beauty products. When I want to pamper myself I take the time to prepare a nice natural face mask and detox with a nice glass of fresh juice and relaxing music.
When I really want to pamper myself, I treat myself to an aromatherapy massage! It is heaven, and I leave feeling like a million bucks! Unfortunately, I can only treat myself once, maybe twice, a year. When I want to do some self pampering at home I use a chocolate scrub that smells yummy and makes me feel like I just left a spa! I also have an inflatable foot basin that I can soak my tired feet and then rub on a refreshing foot cream. I should try to pamper myself more often!
I pamper myself by taking care of my mind, body, and soul. That means that I give all of these, the most important parts of me, a break every once in a while. The best way I pamper myself is by doing yoga, because it allows me to step back from my hectic lifestyle, and really reward and push my body to new limits. Through meditating in yoga, I give my mind a break too. All three meet in the middle and find a balance during the four hours a week when I practice.
I love taking bubble baths and reading fiction! Both of these things feel like such a luxury to me for some reason. 🙂


text: There was some discussion earlier about a new product from Syngenta called Tenacity. You can apply it during seeding of most cool season grasses and it will control a wide spectrum of weeds. For now it is only approved for sod farms and athletic field grow ins. It is not approved for residential use. Syngenta doesn't know if they want to spend a million dollars to get it approved by the EPA. I attended a turf seminar yesterday and the professor from the University of Wisconsin said he received the email reporting the label just received certification several days ago. Rodney, I know you had plans to use a quite a bit of this but it looks like it will be a no go for now, at least on the residential lawns.

Matt Elam expected to be off the board by the time the Ravens picked. He didn't get the vibe that he'd be headed to Baltimore. Maybe Carolina or Cincinnati, but not the Ravens.
Yet, it was Baltimore that saved him from falling to the second round, taking him at No. 32 Thursday, and Elam said he now has something to show the rest of the teams that let him slide.
"I just want to go out and prove to them, and make them realize why I feel like I was the best college safety coming out," he said via conference call. "So I've got a big chip on my shoulder. I'm going to work and I'm going to show it."
So what exactly does the Florida product think he can bring to the Ravens?
"I feel like I'm going to bring a lot of competitiveness, a lot of energy to a great defense already," Elam said. "I just feel excited to have the opportunity, just coming in, a great player like Ed Reed, who was back there before, that's a lot of big shoes to fill. I'm coming in to do all I can to get wins and hopefully win a championship."
Elam has had some exposure to the NFL through his older brother, Abram, who has played safety for the Dallas Cowboys, New York Jets, Cleveland Browns and Kansas City Chiefs over eight seasons in the league.
"I feel like it gives me an advantage because my brother has a lot of experience," Elam said. "He's played in the league and he knows what it takes. He's been giving me a lot of advice, like covering and the way to train and the way to take care of my body. It's just being a pro. That's what he taught me the most."
Perhaps the reason some teams didn't view Elam as the best college safety was because of his height. At 5-foot-10, he's a little undersized for the position.
But that didn't deter the Ravens and isn't a concern to Elam.
"I just feel like my size doesn't matter because I'm a great competitor, I'm flying around, I'm hitting guys, I'm hitting guys bigger than me," he said. "So I feel like size doesn't matter."

Python f Absolute Beginners
MP4 | Video: AVC 1280x720 | Audio: AAC 44KHz 2ch | Duration: 2 Hours | Lec: 37 | 270 MB
Genre: eLearning | Language: English
Learn python programming from scratch with hands on exercises - in no time flat
Course Description:
Python is an easy to learn programming language with a wide variety of well-paying jobs in many fields, including data science, web development, and netwk programming. There couldnt be a better time f you to join the wld of Python.
About this Python course:
This comprehensive, hands-on course will take you from zero to hero with the Python programming language.
It doesnt matter if youve had no programming experience whatsoever. This course starts with the bare bones of python, showing you everything from how to set up your Python IDE to how to use list comprehensions.
Every new concept taught comes with source code and practice problems f you to wk through. Each practice problem also has its solution shown step by step in solutions videos which are meant to help students in case they get stuck. This learn-by-doing approach leaves no stone unturned and ensures that students will leave the course with the ability to actually write code using Python instead of just having non-actionable head knowledge.
Why choose this Python course?
So many other instructs put money above student outcomes and in pursuit of profit, create sht, low-quality courses stuff their courses with needlessly long lectures and filler.
There is none of that in this course. All lectures are just as long sht as they need to be in der to effectively communicate and teach you concepts.
The fact that this course is also jam-packed with coding exercises insures that you will be proficient at applying what you have learned in this course to any Python projects that you wk on in the future. Most other courses do not include this much application and instead take a passive lecture-centric approach to teaching.
Finally, and most imptantly, I am interested in seeing each and every one of my students succeed. To that end, I will answer your questions on anything related to the material in the course and I will also point you in the right direction if you have questions about where to go next on your Python journey. In addition, I will also update and add to course material based on student feedback.
Course structure:
You should follow along with the examples shown in the lecture videos. Then, you should go through the included source code line by line and make sure that you understand what everything does.
Lecture Videos:
In lecture videos, I introduce students to new concepts and teach them about the concepts through examples.
Challenge Problems:
As the old adage goes, œpractice makes perfect. It is imptant f you to keep training your brain.
After each lecture video, there will be a practice problems wksheet f you to do that will require you to use most of what you have learned in your solutions. These problems will help you get acclimated to thinking like a programmer.
Solutions Video:
These are videos in which I go over solutions to the problems from the challenge problems wksheets.

oh my!! i've inherited a pre teen!
my fiancee and i got custody of his 12 yr old son 2 months ago. i was use to getting him every other weekend and have had ups and downs (more ups). but his mom decided that she did not want him any more and dropped him off with no looking back. her excuse was he is to much to handle at this age! how can one as a mother just unload a child like luggage and forget about him? i dread mine growing up and leaving?! i hate leaving her when i go to the store! to top it off she is late turning in all paperwork to make it official and still is collecting his child support for her liking. the poor boy is not even up to date on his shots (last ones at age 5) has not been to the doc/dentist in years and her only answer is i forgot, or i have younger kids that need more care and attention! i remember being a teen but never a boy. she has allowed him to see her being in a abusive relationship for years so he has no respect for women and has even struck her. i understand he is going to need some work, but i don't think he is worth tossing in the towel. got all appointments made to correct those errors including a counselor to work on inner issues and learned traits that are not ok. any other advice from moms in this or a similar situation?

Immortal Panda - Rice by parkourfox12Watch
©2010-2017 parkourfox12
Isn't she cute? ^-^"
I know this is super old, but make sure you link to the artist who created the design kellyykao.tumblr.com/
It's so cute Senpai!
What does it say? (your japanese writing is flawless >.<)
KAWAII PANDAAAA -steals her- >.> -whistles innocently-
KAWAII PANDAAAA -steals her- >.> -whistles innocently-
Well the Japanese in the seven points are the seven deadly sins. Then the four kanji near the center are the four elements. And the three kanji on the outside of the Karma Wheel(bottom) stand for Budduh, Dharma, and Sangha. ^-^
Ohhh cool D:
but kawaiii pandaaa <3
but kawaiii pandaaa <3
So I totally realized coming back to this eons later that you were asking about the Japanese in this picture. Not sure what I was doing at the time I replied to this the first time to have answered you that incorrectly. To answer your question, it simply says 'Immortal Panda'. c:
Thank you. ^-^"

Shoyo AburameEdit
- (To Shana Uzumaki) "To save someone means not to save someone else."
- (To Hiruzen Sarutobi) "Knights cannot save the world. They call certain methods of fighting good and others evil, acting as if there were some nobility to the battlefield. Such illusions, perpetrated by heroes throughout history has continued to lead countless young men and women to their bloody deaths, all for the sake of this ridiculous, so called valor and glory."
- (To Minato Namikaze and Hiruzen Sarutobi) "Heh. There you go, Minato. Our good friend here, the third Hokage, believes that the battlefield is a place better than hell. Don't make me laugh! It's hell itself. There's no hope on the battlefield. It has nothing but unspeakable despair. The crime we call victory, paid for by the pain of the defeated. Yet humanity has never realized this truth. And it is for that reason that, in every era, a dazzling hero has blinded people with their legends, and prevented them from seeing the evil of bloodshed. The true nature of humanity hasn't advanced one step beyond the Stone Age.
- (To Hiruzen Sarutobi ) "Of course not. I would never allow personal feelings like that to interfere with my work. I will save the world. I am simply waging that battle using the most appropriate methods at my disposal. Righteousness cannot save the world. I care nothing for it. I will end this ceaseless cycle. I will do anything I have to. I will make sure that the blood I spill here is the last blood that humanity will ever have to shed. Even if it means staining my hands with every evil in the world, I don't care. If it will save the world, I'll do it gladly.
- (To Shana Uzumaki) "When going out of your way to fight monsters, one should make sure that they do not become a monster themselves. However, when looking long into the abyss, the abyss has a tendacy to look long back, as well."
Kisekiteki HyugaEdit

Huawei has finally taken the wraps off its flagship smartphones – the Huawei P9, at an event in London, after creating buildup lasting several weeks. The company also announced the Huawei P9 Plus alongside the P9 that was previously rumored as P9 Max.
Huawei P9
The Huawei P9 features a 5.2-inch 1080p IPS LCD display offering a pixel density of 423ppi. The device is powered by the company's homegrown chipset – the Kirin 955 that has eight cores – four Cortex-A72 clusters and four Cortex-A53 clusters, clocked at 2.5GHz. The phone will be offered in two variants based on memory and speed – one is equipped with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage and the other comes with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage.
Now, coming to the significant feature of the phone – the camera – that has a dual camera setup. Lending the camera tech from German optics Leica, the rear of the phone sports two 12-megapixel camera units with f/2.2 aperture. The combined cameras offer more detailed shots in good light as well as reduce noise in low light.
There are two LED flashes supporting the camera in dark as well. The entire body of the phone is aluminum, especially the camera strip on back is black, thus giving a luxurious feel to the phone. The phone is backed by a 3000mAh battery and it includes a USB Type-C port for charging it. The fingerprint sensor is mounted on the rear profile of the phone.
Huawei P9 Plus
The Huawei P9 Plus has a larger screen which measures 5.5-inches in diagonal, resolution is 1080p and it's a Super AMOLED screen with support for 3D touch pressure sensitivity, just similar to Apple 3D touch. The phone boasts the same specifications of the P9, except the battery that bumps to 3400mAh and Dual-IC Rapid Charge is rated to deliver 6 hours of talk time for a 10-minute charge, according to Huawei.
The P9 Plus, however, gets stereo speakers that automatically adjust their output depending on the phone's orientation. Just putting it in a simple way, when you held your P9 Plus in portrait, the bottom speaker spills bass while the top speaker takes care of the treble.
The Huawei P9 is priced at £449 ( roughly INR 42,300) and the P9 Plus sets you £549 (roughly INR 52,000). Both the phones will be available starting April 16 in 29 countries in the Middle East and Europe in the first wave in n Ceramic White, Haze Gold, Prestige Gold, Rose Gold, Silver, and Titanium Grey color variants.

Land Crawler Extreme Human Transportation Vehicle
This spider-like machine called the Land Crawler eXtreme by Vagabond Works is made to transport a human as a personal transportation vehicle. It comes with twelve legs that move together to produce a smooth and flowing motion while turning or moving forward.
However the legs on the Land Crawler eXtreme can look rather creepy especially when it travels on a faster speed, but the amazing thing is that due to the smoothness of the crawler's motion it feels like a hovering platform of sorts. To me it is like a Segway on legs, if you'll like to call it.
The distinct physical difference most of us will see is that the wheels get replaced by robotic legs but I'm sure most of the hardware and software behind these urban vehicles, namely the Land Crawler eXtreme and Segway are surely miles apart.
Watch the video of the Land Crawler eXtreme in action:
