![]() The image of Winters charging alone across the field, and then the men of Easy following in the thickening red smoke, is one of the series' most hauntingly beautiful.Īfter that, we deal with Winters' struggle to accept that he's now part of the Army bureaucracy, forced to do paperwork while Moose Heyliger gets to lead Easy on Operation Pegasus, then unable to do anything after Heyliger is wounded by friendly fire and replaced by "Foxhole" Norman Dike, who seems woefully unprepared for the challenges ahead. Still, that battle at the crossroads is pretty amazing, and illustrated just what an amazing leader - not just a master tactician, but a guy willing to lead a charge rather than following one - Easy lost after it. Some of that may be by design - trying to depict how bored and out-of-sorts Winters was once he got that promotion he didn't want - but it means that "Crossroads" is lacking a vitality that's present throughout all the other episodes of the series, even the relatively low-key finale, "Points." "Can We Do This?" has a couple of great Mercury and Gemini recreations (I'm always fond of the Alan Shepard mission in particular), and "Crossroads" is bookended by two terrific sequences: Winters leading the charge on what would turn out to be his final combat mission with Easy, and the men of Easy trying to stock up on ammo from the shell-shocked troops retreating from the Ardennes.īut the middle section of the episode, while important, feels a little flat. Now, that isn't to say these episodes lack memorable moments. Here, it's "Crossroads," which spans the period from the end of Easy's time in Holland - and, more importantly, the end of Dick Winters' tenure as Easy's commander - through Easy being deployed, undermanned and undersupplied, to the town of Bastogne for what will be known as the Battle of the Bulge. With "FtEttM," it was the opener, "Can We Do This?," which gave all the backstory on NASA in the pre-Apollo days. In each case, though, he took one for the team, selecting a transitional episode that may have been necessary to the larger story, but that almost certainly wouldn't be remembered as one of the series' high points. ![]() "Band of Brothers," like "From the Earth to the Moon" before it, was a labor of love for Tom Hanks, and I imagine he could have had his pick of directing assignments for both series. We're up to episode five of our look back at "Band of Brothers." Spoilers for the fifth episode, "Crossroads," coming up just as soon as I do my John Wayne impression.

![]() In addition to zodiac sign profiles, Liao's book offers in-depth analysis of Chinese zodiac signs' compatibility with each other-an enormous topic in itself. Here are the birth years that correspond to each animal in the Chinese zodiac, and a brief overview of the personality traits associated with them, according to Sabrina Liao's Chinese Astrology: Ancient Secrets for Modern Life. ![]() 150 CE), "which brought with it the idea that there are greater forces at work in the mapping of individual destiny.” Back then, “astrology was only used in the divination of collective fortunes-those of the community, the state, or the agricultural year.” According to Thompson, personal horoscopes only became an idea in the years following the arrival of Buddhism in China during the Han Dynasty (ca. ![]() As authors Gerry Maguire Thompson and Shuen-Lian Hsaio write in The Guide to Chinese Horoscopes, for the first 2000 years of recorded Chinese history, there wasn’t really a line between what we consider astrology and the scientific study that we know as astronomy. The practice of Chinese astrology dates back thousands of years. Your zodiac animal is only one piece of the puzzle. But as with Western astrology, other aspects-such as planetary shifts, and in this instance, the Five Elements-exert additional influence at any given time, day, and year. Each animal is associated with particular personality traits, making it fun to look up what your sign is according to the year of your birth date. Twelve animals represent the Chinese zodiac signs (or sheng xiao, translating to "born + resemblance" ) in order, they’re the Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat (or Sheep), Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig. In Chinese culture, the 2021 Lunar New Year on February 12 ushers in the Year of the Ox, after a particularly challenging Year of the Rat in 2020. ![]() Use the "I need to make a label but I'm in a big hurry" wizard to create complete label sets in just a few steps using dozens of provided label themes (users can also save their own themes, which will subsequently appear in the wizard)Ĭlick and drag text, images, and shapes to adjust their sizes and positions size and position can also be locked to prevent accidental changes Text Properties dialog lets you see your changes instantly - no need to close the dialog to see what effect your changes have madeĭisplay text with opaque or transparent background, in speech or text bubbles ![]() Text word-wrapping feature lets you choose how you want text to wrap around a CD label's central hole (wrap around the left side, the right side, both sides, etc.) can be used within a single text objectĪdditional text formatting options including margins, paragraph spacing, justification, text angle (in 90-degree increments) Image Search/Browse Pane right-click menus allow you to set any image as your label's background, or even your desktop wallpaper, with a single clickįull control of text typefaces, font sizes, and effects (bold, italics, underline, strikeout, color, opacity, drop shadow) multiple typefaces, etc. Variety of formats available when importing your own images as label backgrounds: stretch, overlap, underlap, and tiled (with variety of tiling options) Image-search feature finds images by name or file type anywhere on your computer Preserve-aspect-ratio option allows imported images to be resized either freely or preserving the image's original aspect ratio ![]() Top-left-pixel-skip-color image transparency supported PNG image alpha channel transparency supported Variety of image effects, including drop shadows, opacity, grayscale, brightness controlĭesigns, backgrounds, and user image browse/search results appear in a non-modal pane - you don't have to reopen a dialog each time you want to see how a different background or design looks (though the tools pane can be hidden if you need more space) Hundreds of complete label designs and more than a thousand background images created exclusively for Acoustica CD/DVD Label Maker users Import your own images in JPEG, PNG, BMP, TIF, GIF, PCX, and WMF formats, plus a variety of RAW formatsĮxport your label designs as JPEG, PNG, or BMP image files for use with other software or printing services Tracks fields have individually editable formatting (you can have song titles in bold, artist names in italic, etc.) One click to show or hide individual tracks fields (artist, title, etc.) or to hide or show tracks altogether Tracks auto-formatter enables one-click arrangement of tracks into a variety of useful layouts, including spirals, multi-column formats, and more Supports audio, data, and video playlist types Import music playlists from iTunes, Windows Media Player, and many othersĪutomatically read song information directly off CDs via CD-Text, the FreeDB & MusicBrainz album databases, or (for data or MP3 discs) by reading files off the disc at any time - no need to lock in an output target when you create your project you can design your CD label for, say, Neato paper, then decide to print it instead on Memorex paper, a printable disc, etc. Real-time preview of all LightScribe disc colors no need to launch a print-preview dialog to see how your LightScribe disc will look when you print itĬhange your target paper type, disc template, etc. Optionally fade the edges when printing on printable discs so that if your printer lacks perfect alignment, white edges around the disc look more naturalĪutomatic extra bleeding on paper labels and inserts to help compensate for wonky printer alignments Optionally print borders or fold lines for inserts Support for designing and printing all the miscellaneous spines & labels that get added to the corners of disc label papers ![]() Printer alignment wizard allows automatic compensation for out-of-alignment printers alignment can also be adjusted for individual paper types Hundreds of brands and models of paper labels and insert papers supported Print multiple LightScribe discs simultaneously - limited only by the number of LightScribe drives you've got attached to your computerĭesign and print jewel cases, DVD cases, and blu-ray cases Use LightScribe to etch labels directly onto your CD or DVD surface using your drive's laser (requires LightScribe drive and disc) Print directly on CD surfaces using more than 100 supported printer models from Epson, HP, Canon, and more ![]() Lets you easily adjust the size, duration, format, resolution, and other details of the output.Provides a variety of profiles and presets that provides instant conversion of the videos. ![]()
![]() Well if it's not instantly discounted, you aren't saving shit, you are paying full price. They don't even use the word rebate anymore in their TV spots, instead saying you "save 11% off". ![]() It's that their TV commercials falsely advertise that it's "saving you money". They just recently made it where you can do it online, their commercial says, only to find out you can FILL IT OUT ONLINE, but you still have to mail it in and wait a solid month for your rebate.īut that isn't the worst part, no. Now I'm not opposed to a mail in rebate, but they make theirs as convoluted as possible in hopes you won't mail it off and then they won't owe you shit. Even their premium grade lumber is just as awful.īut one of the most irritating things about their stores is their rebate process. It's a common joke big box store lumber IS a joke, fine for framing, but on more delicate work like furniture building, you might go through 20 1圆's to find one that isn't bowed to the point it literally could be a bow, and not cupped to the point it could be used as a gutter on your roof. So where do I fit in? Well they recently got rid of the ability for their cashiers in returns to look up returns by your credit card, motioning you over to this Kiosk where the software looks like it was designed with discarded code from Windows 98, and if you bought a few dozen items every day over a week or two, good fucking luck trying to find the exact item with SKU titles like "Ssad Cosa 32". Now you can do your own research on why Menards sucks, everything from the owner being a douche (making personal visits to stores and firing anyone who looks at him funny), to their piss poor environmental record (worst than any other hardware/big box store), to price gouging masks during the pandemic (which they apologized for it, as if that makes it better), to terrible Covid-19 practices. Ask a contractor to assess your wall strength if you aren't sure.Never particularly liked the store to begin with, but they are about 7 miles closer to me than Home Depot, so it saved about 15 minutes on an already long trip for things. These blocks are much heavier than a normal window, so the wall needs to be strong enough.

Examples include inflammation, vascular injury, and choroidal tumors. Any disease of the retinal pigment epithelium and the choroid can damage the blood retinal barrier and overwhelm the retinal pigment epithelium pump, resulting in fluid accumulating under the retina. The retinal pigment epithelium is responsible for pumping fluid out of the retina so that the retina and retinal pigment epithelium remain attached. These detachments result from diseases of the retinal pigment epithelium and the choroids. These detachments occur when scar tissue contracts and induces mechanical traction on the neurosensory retina, thus pulling the retina from the retinal pigment epithelium.Īn exudative retinal detachment occurs in the absence of either retinal breaks or vitreoretinal traction. Studies have reported that approximately 6% of all eyes have a retinal break, but only 1 person in 10,000-15,000 a year eventually requires retinal detachment repair.Ī tractional retinal detachment is caused by direct mechanical traction. Any retinal break or tear can cause a retinal detachment. They occur with an incidence of 5-10 per 100,000 population/year. ![]() Most detachments generally are of the rhegmatogenous type. The accumulation of fluid in the subretinal space results in the separation of the retina from the retinal pigment epithelium. There are 3 kinds of retinal detachments: (1) Rhegmatogenous, (2) Tractional, and (3) Exudative.Ī rhegmatogenous retinal detachment results when a tear or break in the retina occurs, resulting in vitreous fluid gaining access to the subretinal space.
