![]() ![]() I was going to upload on Half Life's 20th anniversary but my videocard was broken and I got a new one in this month, but I didn't forget to celebrate it unlike Valve, and I decided to upload as a christmas present. Most of these models where edited by myself and and obligatorily credit those who worked hard and with the total effort in them. I did a mission to make a better one and occasionally go even further beyond ( Plus Ultra!). Trusty Crowbar and R1chard? Don't even get me started. I know there's some packs made by the other people such as the one made by LongNange, but with a more complex point of view, most models are messy and have poor quality textures, causing inconsistencies and sometimes smoothing problems. ![]() To begin with, this was based on the lost Marphy Black's "Unofficial High Definition 2 Pack" (seen here: ) and so, I decided (and definitely try) to follow the same example as him in his "Two C's and a Q" which stands for Compatibility, Consistency, and Quality. However, not just a simple improved model pack but also bonus enhancements such as menu music, improved quality image, fixed maps and proper Half Life OST for Blue Shift (directly from the Dreamcast version). Hello ladies and gentleman from Moddb! I'm here again to release the "High Definition 2 Pack"! What is it? It's a full replacement models for Half Life, Opposing Force and Blue Shift exclusively for Steam, which consists enhanced models made by some of the good ol' authors in the Half Life community. ![]() ![]() Upon such termination, you shall immediately stop using the SOFTWARE.

![]() ![]() UF-B cable is used for underground service and as a direct burial cable.Type MC cable has a protective armor and can be used without conduit.Make sure to choose the cable with a suitable size of a ground wire. Copper SER is a popular choice for panels and subpanels.USE-2 RHH RHW-2 can be used for underground service entrance applications.THHN/THWN-2 and XHHW-XHHW-2 are used in conduit.The last one is suitable for underground service. Types of Copper Wire For 100-amp Service PanelsĬommon types of copper wire used in 100 Amp service are THHN/THWN-2, USE-2 RHH RHW-2, XHHW, type MC cable, copper SER cable, and UF-B cable. For commercial applications, flame-retardant, plenum or riser-rated, and low-smoke zero halogen cables should be used. Both are perfectly fine to use in these panels. Wires Used in 100 Amp service are different depending on whether it is copper or aluminum wire. In general, a 100 AMP service is very common, and you can find a 100 amps sub panel everywhere. 100 Amp service may also be used to feed different subpanels and circuit breaker panels in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings. Other basic applications of a 100 amp service panel are detached garages, workshops, agricultural facilities, and temporary power at the construction sites. ![]() 100 Amp service is not good for houses over 3,000 square feet with central air conditioning or electric heat. In these houses, 150 amp and 200 amp services are more common. While 100-amp service is enough for such homes, it is not common for larger houses with the combination of electric and gas appliances and high-power demand. It is quite standard for older homes that have a limited number of appliances. Is 100 amp service enough for your home? The answer depends on the size of your home and your appliances.Ī 100-Amp service panel is typical for mid-size private houses and apartments with several 240-volt appliances and basic air conditioning. You would typically use 8 AWG copper grounding wire or 6 AWG aluminum grounding wire. The ground wire size for 100 Amp service is different. If the run of the wire is significantly long, such as over 100 feet, you should use a larger size out of the sizes described above to accommodate for voltage drop. When choosing 100 amp service wire size, remember that a 100 amp circuit at 240V can proceed up to 24,000W of electricity. These sizes are also used for direct burial. Typical sizes of wires for 100 Amp Service are 4 AWG or 2 AWG for copper wiring and 2 AWG, 1 AWG, or 1/0 AWG for aluminum or copper-clad wiring. Options include THHN, XHHW, UF-B, USE, and SER. One of the most common questions wire and cable buyers ask is: Which wire gauge to use for 100 amp service, and which type of cable to choose? The truth is that you can use many types of copper and aluminum wire in a 100-amp service. ![]() ![]() ![]() We have also created a cool little tool that will calculate the total Number of Games in a Tournament.

They're completely weatherproof though, even against snow, but it's still something to keep in mind. Each chair weighs 30 lbs and doesn't fold or stack, so you might end up leaving them out all year. Made from heavy-duty polyethylene, the Loop Lounge is completely waterproof (it can even be used in pools shallower than 11 inches) and incredibly durable, with a weight capacity of 500 lbs.īecause of its heavy-duty nature, though, it's not the easiest chair in the world to store. The unique design consists of a single, unbroken line that's completely seamless, making for a very striking silhouette. The brand's range consists of four ultra-contemporary outdoor chairs, but it's the Loop Lounge Chair that's best suited to take the place of a traditional lawn chair. Seat Height: 13.5 inches at the front, 10 inches at the backįor those looking to eschew vintage and take the modern route with their choice of lawn chair, Tupelo Goods is perhaps your best bet.Low profile makes it hard to get up from.Important specs to note are the width of the seat, the recommended weight limit and the seat height, as anything below 15 inches or so will be difficult for some people to get in and out of. ![]() Lawn chairs come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes - some models even offer multiple sizes - so it's important to choose one that suits your body type, along with those of your family and friends who will also be using them. To make your life easier when fall and winter roll around, opt for lawn chairs that are lightweight and that are foldable or stackable - ideally both - as they'll take up much less room in a garage or storage shed. Lawn chairs live on your lawn when the weather is nice, but depending on where you live, you're probably going to want to store them away during the off-season. Unless you want to store them away after every use, picking a chair with a durable material equipped with some form of weatherproofing will ensure your chair lasts many summers. Regardless of which material suits your style, you'll want it to be able to stand up against the elements - ideally, some level of water resistance and protection against UV damage from the sun. Lawn chairs are available in a wide number of materials, from nylon, canvas or vinyl stretched over frames of aluminum or steel to solid injection-molded hunks of plastic. If you're using clips, fold 3/4 inch (2 cm) of strap around the clip and insert it in the slot (again, you should be able to see from the old webbing how to do this).What to Look for in a Lawn Chair Materials Screw in one end of the strap, pull it around tightly, and screw in the other end. Make a hole with an awl or screw about 1/2 inch (12 mm) from the tip of the point. If you are using clips, add 1 1/2 inches (4 cm).įor chairs with screws, fold down the corners at one end of the strap to form a point (you'll be able to see from the old webbing how this is done). If you are attaching the horizontal straps with screws, add 2 inches (5 cm) to each measurement, and cut the roll into strips of that length with scissors. Remember, the chair back and seat may not be the same width, so take measurements for each. Using the method described in step 2, above, measure the distance from the slots or holes for each of the horizontal straps. If the chair has a drooping seat or many frayed straps, you'll need to remove all the webbing. If only one or two straps are torn and the rest look good, you may want to replace only them. With a screwdriver, remove the screws or metal clips holding the webbing. Loop the other end of the strap around the other side of the frame, pull tightly and attach in the same manner. If you are using plastic rivets, you'll need to drive them in with a rubber mallet or very gently with a hammer. With an awl or the point of a screw, make a hole about 1/4 inch (6 mm) from each end of the strap.Īttach one end of the strap with a sheet-metal screw (see A). This will ensure that you stretch the strap as tightly as possible when installing it. Cut a length of strap 1 inch (2.5 cm) shorter than your measurement. ![]() ![]() ![]() The later problem, it doesn't bother me greatly, but perhaps someday I'll see if it might be possible to do a little paint removal. The former problem, oh well, since he is (in my opinion) my best option, I can live with it. The only complaints I have would be (1) his bird mode perhaps looks just a tad bit oversized compared to Soundwave and his other animal based minion, Ravage and (2) he still has "BOOSTER X10" emblazoned on the back of his ear piece. In my eyes, you are now Classics Lazerbeak." And given the above mentioned similarity, he does that job well. Or did I? I unpacked Booster X10, stuck a Reprolabels faction symbol over the plain silver one on his ear piece, and said (or rather, would have said if I was the sort of bloke who talked aloud to his toys,) "Congradulations. And when doing so, I knew Soundwave would need at least his four most iconic companions. Then, late last year I decided to finally cough up the cash for Music Label Soundwave. And in fact, this figure was no longer on my shelves after I'd decided to pack away the few (non Optimus Prime) live action movie figures I had to clear up some space. Still, for the longest time, that is all I saw this figure as: a nice homage, but a unique movie-verse character. One of the sub-lines in the first film's toyline was a line called, "Real Gear." This line consisted of what was supposed to be 1:1 scale personal electronic items (not real ones like the above Soundwave, but just toys) that transformed.īeing a piece of audio technology that transformes into a red and black bird who has a back mounted weapon, I feel it would have to have been one hell of a coincidence for this not to have been intended to be a Lazerbeak homage. FREAKING MUSIC PLAYING SOUNDWAVE!Ģ007 also brought us the first live action Transformers movie. On the other hand, if you do have the money to spend this is a great thing for the adult collector looking to fill the Soundwave gap on their Classics shelf. Of course, as a Japanese import that is no longer in production he is not going to be an inexpensive purchase, so that might definitely make it not a good idea as a toy for kids. ![]() But, and I cannot say it enough, he is a Soundwave that is both gorgeous, and it FREAKING PLAYS MUSIC! This is perhaps not good for a child's toy, unless it is an older child who would not be as rough on their toys. Sure, he can't hold cassette Transformers inside of him. and it FREAKING PLAYS MUSIC! Sure, the weapons don't store as batteries. It is an excellent update to the G1 design. But I do think that when I formated it, I might have named it Buzzsaw.) I should also note that he can still function as an MP3 player in his robot mode, but since his shoulder canon plugs into his headphone jack you will have to remove it to plug in your headphones or speakers. (You know, it has been a while since I've plugged the SD card into my computer, so my memory is a bit fuzzy. Unless, of course, you count the SD card as a minion. Soundwave's chest does open, but unlike his G1 version, you cannot store his minions in there. Unless it is something so large that it would detramentally add to the cost of a figure, I'd rather have a few extra excessories I might not need rather then not enough accessories. Still, the inclusion of the extra fists is apreciated. I quite content myself with one closed fist and one weapon holding hand, knowing I won't need to swap fists out and can still do everything I wish to with this figure. ![]() The weapon holding hand just manages to fit. This mode was designed with the closed fists in mind. ![]() Finally, the knees can bent about 90 degrees.Īlso, while I will admit to not having tested it, I'm not sure if the "extended finger" hands would fit in place when transforming him back into a cassette player. His legs can move forward and back or in an out at the hips, and there is a 360 degree swivel above the knees. He has no waist articulation, I fear, but it is not a terrible omission. His elbows each feature both a hinge joint and a ball joint, and his wrists have ball joints. To start with, his head is on a ball joint, his shoulders can turn 360 degrees, he can raise his arms, and there's a 360 degree swivel in his uper arms. His original figure had decent posability for the 80's, and this incarnation takes that and dials it up to 11. Additional detail in this mode that they supply would be the details on the shoulders, knees, and lower legs (all inspired by the G1 toy's stickers) and the red detailing added to his weaponry. And again, the Reprolabels help seal the deal. It perfectly captures the look of his G1 incarnation and updates it to a modern toy design. I don't know what can be said about this Soundwave other then. ![]() ![]() ![]() And you're still expected to write 1,000 words a day? Yeah, right.īut, if amongst your life commitments, you can make time to write 500 words a day, then that's a lofty, yet attainable quota. This means you have kids to take care of, dinner to prepare, plus your commuting time – and then there's still soccer practice, and all the unexpected day-to-day things that pop up.

Plus, it gives parents a break for their own much-needed refresher.” “It’s your child’s time to do what they want, relax and unwind from a busy day. “Show kids it’s not a punishment, but instead is something they can look forward to each day,” said Dr. Kids might push back at first, but eventually they may be surprised how refreshing and fun it can be. If your children struggle with transitions, try using a timer to let kids know they only have a few minutes left for imaginative play. “You’re there to watch and make sure they’re safe, but it should be individual playtime.” “Younger kids will still need supervision, but it’s not meant for partnered playtime,” said Dr. You can present options to guide them in finding something to do. If you’re just starting out, offer a little structure for kids and then slowly taper that over time, reducing your effort as kids learn to entertain themselves. For younger kids, it might only be 15 to 20 minutes, but as kids get older increase the time to about an hour a day. It could be every day after school, after lunch or before bedtime. Kids thrive on predictability, so make it a part of their routine. It’s a learned behavior so for families without much downtime, they can slowly teach their kids this skill.įirst, create a schedule for downtime. Kids need time to be bored so they can learn how to solve the problem and figure out how to entertain themselves. So, how can parents establish downtime in their busy schedules? But to make sense of that information, they need downtime to process and catalog what they are learning. Kids are exposed to new information every day. “Studies show kids that have regular downtime are more creative, focused, energized, independent, can self-soothe and solve problems in innovative ways.” ![]() “It’s more than just a break for mom and child, research shows there’s tremendous value in just being,” said Dr. In fact, research shows downtime can help a child’s nervous system regulate to be more adaptive to our complex environments by regenerating new cells to help them process, organize and learn new information. Quiet time with little-to-no stimulation offers the best environment for this process to take place. But to make sense of that information, they need time to process and catalog what they are learning. For older kids, it could mean reading, drawing, journaling or listening to music. ![]() It could mean playing in their rooms or outside, building with blocks, playing play dough, coloring, listening to audiobooks or even naptime for little ones. They struggle to sit still, relax and unwind, and parents feel a responsibility to entertain their kids when they’re bored.”ĭowntime or quiet time is unstructured time, away from screens or other stimulating play, to allow kids to engage in independent activities. “Kids find it difficult to know what to do in unstructured times, especially when there are no screens. “Constant stimulation can be harmful in some ways,” she said.

That’s why for today’s busy family, she touts the tremendous value in taking regular breaks and establishing daily downtime or quiet time for kids of all ages-even adults. It’s a product of our fast-paced society and stimulating environment, said Laura Hlavaty, PhD, pediatric psychologist in Akron Children’s Lois and John Orr Family Behavioral Health Center.
