![]() ![]() WOW!! He kept getting frustrated with me and hanging up. Next he called again and said he did not know where the cruise terminal is (?!). First he called me and asked for a specific street address. Last driver could not find us at the Long Beach Cruise Terminal either. But he had a hard time finding the Long Beach Cruise Port (?!?!), even with maps on his phone. Once he decided I was the right client, he said, " I don't know where this address is." Plus, it smelled like alcohol in his vehicle. Our first driver took forever to get to the LAX-IT lot (after midnight), then proceded to argue with me that I was not his pickup. Customer service was GREAT, but I wished I hadn't needed it (!!). It was more like Uber or Lyft, but not as reliable or friendly. I was expecting this to be a "shuttle" service, like the van in the pictures. I'll be following up with management again on monday Why does any customer want a random person to know where they live. I'm still waiting on manager address the fact the first driver was asleep and was riding around with non employees. ![]() ![]() When we arrived to my home he pulled in front of the gate as if he didn't have the gate code or the address. I said yes and why would want to be squeezed in a car. I asked him why he didn't fold down the seat to the 3rd row. He didn't try to assist them with getting in the truck. This driver didn't open the doors regardless he saw 2 people in wheelchairs. He called while we were waiting on the luggage to be unloaded, he was rude and acted as if he was in a rush. I requested another driver to pick us up on our return. She slept, I thought it was a shared ride. The driver had his girlfriend in the car when he picked us up. ![]()

![]() ![]() Observations on the biology of giant sable were reported soon after its scientific description by Thomas ( 1916), resulting from the many expeditions undertaken to collect material for museums in Europe and the United States of America. The importance of the current unanimous recognition of the giant sable as a national symbol should not be underestimated, constituting a key factor uniting Angola’s people regardless of their different ethnic groups, religious beliefs or political ideologies, and thus contributing to social cohesion and national pride. Since Angola’s independence in 1975, its status has been reinforced. ![]() In Angola, the giant sable was the first animal to receive full legal protection and was soon embraced as an icon during colonial rule. Soon after its discovery, the giant sable was elevated to a high pedestal among the hunting community as one of the most sought after trophy prizes, and fuelled the lust of big game hunters from all over the world. Its cultural significance extends from local totemic status among resident communities (where it is known as ‘kolo’ or ‘sumbakaloko’) to global recognition as an antelope symbol and flagship for conservation. Having captured the imagination of naturalists and the general public for over one hundred years, the giant sable antelope Hippotragus niger variani is the undisputed icon of Angola’s natural heritage (Fig. The giant sable is currently the main focus of a conservation programme supervised by the Angolan Government that is successfully promoting its recovery. Park management and efficient protection was enforced in the 1960s, but these protected areas were abandoned soon after the country’s independence, leading to population crashes and interspecific hybridization, which left the subspecies on the verge of extinction. Although much pursued by hunters during the first half of the twentieth century, the conservation needs of giant sable were recognised early on, with the proclamation of two protected areas and the setting in place of strict regulations. ![]() Molecular studies have only recently made significant contributions to interpret the evolutionary history of giant sable. Past explanations for the extent of the isolation and relationships with other sable populations have been controversial. Studies on the biology of giant sable were mostly conducted in the 1970s, but ongoing efforts using modern tools such as DNA analyses, GPS tracking, camera trapping and satellite imagery are improving our knowledge. One of the last large mammals to be described in Africa, it is confined to the upper Cuanza basin, in central Angola. The giant sable antelope Hippotragus niger variani is the most widely recognised representative of Angolan biodiversity, owing to its endemic status, rarity and physical attributes. ![]() ![]() ![]() Noticed during this time that wow players have an absolutely terrible sense of time. It was 7 months and 6 days, or more accurately 31 weeks+1 day (cause months vary in duration). Just saying we had what, 8 months of 9.0? If we have the same amount of time before the next patch I'm sure most people will still be just fine unless you're suuuuper casual like myself.but maybe that's why I find it comical that people think they need to fully optimize everything in game.Įdit: I also like the fact that this article in my interpretation says "Go to Korthia and do everything there, every day" Just saying we had what, "almost" (for those that think fact checking the actual length matters) 8 months of 9.0? If we have the same amount of time before the next patch I'm sure most people will still be just fine unless you're suuuuper casual like myself.but maybe that's why I find it comical that people think they need to fully optimize everything in game.Įdit: I also like the fact that this article in my interpretation says "Go to Korthia and do everything there, every day" Comment by couchpotato2013 on T10:54:39-05:00 I spent the smallest amount of time possible in the maw and I didn't necessarily feel like I was missing out on much but I could be wrong.) Why even worry about optimizing it? To complete it faster so you are completely out of content to do so you can get bored and move back on to another game?ĭid farming the maw every single day optimizing everything you could do there when the expansion came out end up beneficial to anyone in the long run, other than just make people absolutely hate the maw? (Curious tbh if it was actually beneficial. Comment by Rayraysfunhouse on T10:34:01-05:00 It doesn't make you a dead weight to you peers and it doesn't make you any less of a player. by all means aspire to be those bleeding edge mythic players but if you only have an hr every day to play, be ok in the fact you'll likely never reach those aspirations let's face it, blizzard will never satisfy everyone so ultimately you need to change your mentality. Yet some people found the eye to be restrictive. Now, every time I leave Korthia to do what I actually enjoy, I feel I am letting my poor shaman down by not pushing the boundries of my sanity by doing rounds and killing every single rare around or searching every nook and crany for those chests. I would do the dailies - kill my rares and when they eye got red. I might get flamed for this, but pre 9.1 maw gave me more of a sence of completion each day. That order is Screaming Shade, then Silent Soulstalker, then Deadsoul Hatcher, then Screaming Shade again and so on. When one is killed, the next one in the order will spawn 15-20 minutes later. You can see them from the regular world, but someone needs to go into the rift and pull them out before they're attackable, at which point they're fought outside of the rift. There are three rares in this category - two live in Korthia proper and one lives down in the Vault of Secrets. This addon will mark many rares and treasures on your map to help you keep track of them!Īnother great resource is this WeakAura by Dorovon, which tracks several of the repeatable sources of reputation for you. Hang out in Korthia, killing the slower spawning Rares and Events as they spawn and looting Relic Fragment from whatever source you can find.īy far the most useful Addon to help you out in Korthia is Handynotes and Handynotes: Shadowlands.Do a Rift run - if you're solo, just grab the four Riftbound Cache, but if you're in a group or are geared you can do more. ![]() ![]() Do a quick circle around the zone, grabbing whichever fast-respawning rares like Kroke the Tormented are up today and the daily treasures like Spectral Bound Chest.Do the active Korthia Daily Quests, killing any rares and opening any Treasures you run into.Make sure you've done all Weekly and Biweekly objectives.Just go down this list until you get bored - the top items have the best bang for your buck while the bottom items are harder or have diminishing returns. This guide, written by Dratnos, goes into great detail for how to optimize your daily Korthia activities! Here are some awesome tips from the guide.ĭepending on what you enjoy, whether you play solo or in a group, and what rewards you're prioritizing, you may have a slightly different priority list than this, but for most cases this should be a pretty good approximation of what to take care of in order. If you're looking to optimize your Archivist's Codex Reputation, we've released a daily Korthia to-do list giving tips and tricks for rares, treasures and the Rift! ![]() ![]() ![]() Please Log in or Create an account to join the conversation. You want something that looks like these (this is not a recomendation for the manufactuer or product, just an example of shape) Not sure if any of this helps with the original question, but thought I'd toss in my pennies (better than tossing my cookies, eh?). You want a large smooth flair, so the air can flow smoothly into the carb, if the edge of the mouth is too sharp you don't get a good boundry layer, the air will not flow as smoothly, and you get turbulence. The shape of the mouth of the velocity stack is verry verrrry important. My MGB uses a 1/4" plate with a radius to help smooth the air flow. You need to break that 90° edge where the air goes into the throat, it is possible to use a short stack (and they do have them, so short in fact they look like rounded rings). BUT, you don't necessarily have to have a long stack to get the benefits. Wiredgeorge is right, intake tuning is done by adjusting the length of the velocity stack, or intake runners (cars). more simple actually than the bike carbs, but all the principals apply. British cars use SU carbs (well some of them anyway), which are verrry similar to CV carbs. ![]() I'm no wizard, most of this comes from a book "Tuning BL's (British Leland) A-series engine" by David Vizard. I realize that the stack in a filter is a problem for bikes, just don't have much room. The best, if room is available, is to put a high flow air filter around the velocity stack, this will allow the air in, and allow the velocity stack to work it's magic. The problem with putting anything, including wire mesh to keep the birds out, in the mouth of the velocity stack is it will screw up the airflow, causing turbulence, thus loosing the benifits gained by using the stack. If this was allowed to happen, you could see the performance drop off as the valve job went away. The rider would put the towel in the front of his leathers, then make the pass, kill the motor, and make the turn off, stop get the towel out and wrap the carbs before being towed back the return road.Įven with the motor not running, there was a risk of the rear tire throwing dirt around and some could get in the carbs, only to be sucked thru the motor next time it was started. The seats and valve faces don't last long if you are sucking dirt in the motor.īack before pro stocks had air boxes, they would keep a towel wrapped around the carbs right up until the starter was plugged in. We can tell the heads that come into the shop that have been running no filters. It beats the stuff into the seat and valve face. The trash passing thru the intake port get hammered by the valve everytime it closes. Jay, why would not running filters hurt valve seats? Can you explain your comment? I can understand sucking in dirt/insects/tree branches might not due valve seats any good. Moved the topic to the carb forum where it seems to be more on topic. Our velocity stacks are designed for maximum flow and minimum height. ![]() ![]() You can research each stop further by tapping a fuel station stop of your choice.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() If they did, however, too familiar are the mind-annihilating methods of these Communists in extorting whatever words they want. Clark asserted: "Whether these statements ever passed the lips of these unfortunate men is doubtful. After Chinese radio broadcasts claimed to quote Frank Schwable, Chief of Staff of the First Marine Air Wing admitting to participating in germ warfare, United Nations commander General Mark W. military and government laid charges of brainwashing in an effort to undermine confessions made by POWs to war crimes, including biological warfare. Ford and British army Colonel James Carne also claimed that the Chinese subjected them to brainwashing techniques during their imprisonment. Hunter and others used the Chinese term to explain why, during the Korean War (1950–1953), some American prisoners of war (POWs) cooperated with their Chinese captors, and even in a few cases defected to their side. Hunter was an outspoken anticommunist and was alleged to be a CIA agent working undercover as a journalist. The Oxford English Dictionary records the earliest known English-language usage of the word "brainwashing" in an article by a journalist Edward Hunter, in Miami News, published on 24 September 1950. The term punned on the Taoist custom of "cleansing / washing the heart / mind" ( xǐxīn,洗心) before conducting ceremonies or entering holy places. The Chinese term xǐnǎo (洗腦,"wash brain") was originally used to describe the coercive persuasion used under the Maoist government in China, which aimed to transform "reactionary" people into "right-thinking" members of the new Chinese social system. In casual speech, "brainwashing" and its verb form, "brainwash", are used figuratively to describe the use of propaganda to persuade or sway public opinion. īrainwashing has become a common theme in popular culture, especially in science fiction. Scientific and legal debate followed, as well as media attention, about the possibility of brainwashing being a factor when lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) was used, or in the conversion of people to groups which are considered to be cults. In the late 1960s and 1970s, the CIA's MKUltra experiments failed with no operational use of the subjects. Research into the concept also looked at Nazi Germany, at some criminal cases in the United States, and at the actions of human traffickers. The term "brainwashing" was first used in English by Edward Hunter in 1950 to describe how the Chinese government appeared to make people cooperate with them during the Korean War. Brainwashing is said to reduce its subject's ability to think critically or independently, to allow the introduction of new, unwanted thoughts and ideas into their minds, as well as to change their attitudes, values, and beliefs. For other uses, see Brainwashing (disambiguation) and Mind control (disambiguation).īrainwashing (also known as mind control, menticide, coercive persuasion, thought control, thought reform, and forced re-education) is the concept that the human mind can be altered or controlled by certain psychological techniques. ![]() ![]() ![]() In short, If you need to convert PDF to vector and image formats, PDF FLY provides all the power you'll need. ![]() ![]() It can quickly and conveniently convert PDF files into Word files, which is simple and efficient one-key operation is fast and convenient.
