Sir Stuart Strange: “ By virtue of geography a point of contention between His Majesty's Government and the cursed United States.” James Delaney: “ So this small piece of land that my father bought for beads, bless him, and gunpowder, some 30 years ago, actually will be very, very valuable to the Crown and to the East India, but also incredibly valuable to the Americans.If you love to be original and to look cool, you are in the right place. It will bring the King and Empire down upon your head.” ― Brace to James Memorable Quotes “ This Nootka Sound is a curse.

James refused to sell it or being bribed, intending to take advantage of his inheritance to set the basis for his own trading company, the Delaney Nootka Trading Company. For this reason, the border is very valuable to the Crown and to the East India, but also incredibly valuable to the Americans. ![]() As negotiators are preparing depositions to draw the Canadian-American border for when the current hostilities end, and because of the strategical position of Nootka Sound, whoever owns it has legal entitlement to the entire island of Vancouver, which is the gateway to China. James Delaney was well aware of all of this as well as the fact that British and American Government are preparing to begin their secret peace talks in Ghent. Therefore, that private ownership of the Nootka Sound landing ground represents an opportunity for Americans who dispute its sovereignty when the time comes to draw the border. Īccording to Sir Stuart Strange, by virtue of geography, the Nootka sound is a point of contention between His Majesty's Government and the United States.

![]() There’s a 3 year warranty (which is pretty solid for a tool pack, especially if you use it regularly), a warning that I should read this list of warnings that seems to be the instruction manual (which I have, and will proceed to ignore), and a label in the top right stating that this is a lithium ion battery and that if the package is damaged, you shouldn’t transport it. The top part of the warnings is not terribly fun to read. Oooh! The back of the packaging comes with a handy list of “Things I’m about to do with a battery pack” - though I may not do all of them immediately. If you’re doing a lot of overhead work, the extra half pound might matter to you - but otherwise? This is a very nice improvement. The new pack sounds bigger than it is - it’s really only a small increase in size and weight over the old pack. You can consider this a case of “Battery technology advancing.” ![]() It’s half a pound heavier and marginally larger in all dimensions for twice the capacity. To give you an idea of how this pack compares to the more common 3.0Ah pack, I’ve compared the new pack to the 3Ah ones I have laying around and previously tore down. But, I’m going to pull it apart enough to find out what makes it tick, compare it to the other pack I ripped apart, and do an awful lot of testing to find out if it’s any good! Specifications & Size (vs 3.0Ah Tool Pack) Since this is a brand new and working pack, I’m not going to completely destroy it - I do like my tool packs for my tools. This new pack is supposed to be twice the capacity at 6.0Ah - or, as the front cover helpfully explains, “50% More Capacity vs DCB204 4.0Ah Battery.” Math! Back in 2016, I tore apart a 3.0Ah pack I had laying around - that particular one had a bad cell group (dead short in a cell - that must have been exciting when it failed), so it was quite unusable and I couldn’t really get much data on it. I’ve looked at the DeWalt 20V Max packs before. ![]() ![]() What’s inside? Is it any good? Read on to find out! DeWalt 20V Max 6.0Ah Tool Pack This is a notable pack in that it’s (supposedly) using 20700 format cells - the first non-18650 based tool pack I’ve had the opportunity to rip into. It’s been a little while since I’ve had a shiny new tool battery to tear down! This one showed up in the mail for some analysis and evaluation - so analyze and evaluate it I shall!Īs of the time of posting, you can get 2 for $150 (shipped) on eBay - which almost certainly beats your local hardware store by a lot. ![]() ![]() ![]() You can either conduct a soil test or simply improve your soil by mixing a few inches of aged compost-enriched Miracle-Gro® Performance Organics® All Purpose In-Ground Soil in with the top layer of your existing soil. ![]() Plant cilantro in well-drained soil with a pH of 6.2 to 6.8. When plants begin to bloom, the foliage will become scarce for a steady harvest, set out plants every 3 to 4 weeks until the weather gets warm in spring, or until the first fall frost. In the North, plant cilantro in late spring. Fall is the ideal time to plant in zones 8, 9, and 10 because the plants will last through until the weather heats up in late spring. In the South and Southwest, plant in the fall or early spring, about a month before the last frost. ![]() Grow cilantro in full sun, though it will also tolerate light shade in the South and Southwest where the sun is intense. Bonnie cilantro is already well on its way to maturity and comes from a company with over a century of experience helping home gardeners grow their own food. Start by choosing strong young Bonnie Plants® cilantro starter plants to give you an added measure of success in the garden. Avoid harvesting more than a third of the plant at any one time.

You need a colossal amount of rendering power to hit decent frame rates at such a high resolution. Best 4K gaming monitorĤK gaming is a premium endeavor. Read our full Alienware 34 AW3423DWF review. Because it's absolutely farking fabulous. But you can still ink the new Alienware 34 AW3423DWF in as our new favourite gaming panel. The triangular rather than vertically striped RGB subpixel substructure doesn't help with text clarity, either.Īnd of course, this is still a very expensive monitor, even at the relative discount. That doesn't make for terribly crisp fonts in Windows or super sharp image detail. For general computing the pixel density ain't great. Current USB Type-C power delivery is limited to 100W, which isn't enough to keep a gaming laptop juiced.Īs for reservations, well, once again it's the same story as the OG Alienware OLED. It's also cheaper than the Philips Evnia and compared to that monitor is only missing a USB Type-C connection, which in a gaming context isn't a huge loss. It just ups the contrast and removes that slight greying of darker tones that comes with a matte coating. It's not over reflective and distracting in that regard. Incidentally, the coating is very well judged. Along with the Philips, this is simply the best HDR gaming experience you can currently get. It does wonders for black levels and contrast. In that regard, it's just like the Philips Evnia 34M2C8600, which is another member of the Samsung QD-OLED gang and also has a glossy anti-glare coating. In fact, it's better than that because the glossy really lets the OLED panel sing. More to the point, this monitor always looks punchy, which you absolutely cannot say of monitors with LG OLED tech. This Alienware does have a brightness limiter, but it's far less aggressive than on most LG-equipped monitors and you barely notice it happening. The Samsung QD-OLED panel is carried over, which is a very good thing. Whatever, those details aside you're mostly getting the same 34-inch ultrawide and slightly curved proposition as before. You know, to help Alienware justify the price of the more expensive model: it's 10Hz faster! You're never going to feel that difference in-game and it seems like the sort of minor spec tweak designed for product differentiation. Speaking of refresh rates, this new F model steps down from 175Hz to 165Hz. In its place you get AMD's Freesync Premium Pro and therefore perfectly adequate adaptive refresh support. Hallelujah, it has a glossy anti-glare coating. For starters, the mostly pointless Nvidia G-Sync Ultimate certification and the costly G-Sync chip it requires have been ditched. The new Alienware 34 AW3423DWF adds an "F" on the end and loses a few on-paper features in the quest for that lower price point. Now there's another 34-inch ultrawide Alienware OLED monitor that looks nearly identical but costs several hundred dollars less. It was simply stunning.īut it wasn't, you know, actually perfect. When Alienware wheeled out what was the world's first OLED gaming monitor, the Alienware 34 AW3423DW, it went straight to the top of the table. It's extensive, but there are a whole lotta gaming monitors out there, and plenty deserves your attention. I've constantly been testing gaming monitors throughout my career and have ensured that only the best for each budget has crept into this guide. But if you've had the cash to drop on an RTX 40-series or a high-end AMD RX 7900 series GPU then you can take your pick of 4K panels.įor the competitive gamer who values speed above all else, check out our list of high refresh rate monitors running at 165Hz, 240Hz, and even 360Hz. You want to match your monitor choice with your PC specs to get the most for your money. A 4K monitor with a high refresh rate would be overkill if your rig only packs a GTX 1060. It uses the same excellent Samsung OLED panel as the pricier Alienware and gives it the same glossy, not overly reflective, coating that the also more expensive Philips Evnia 34M2C8600 comes with. Right now, the best gaming monitor is the Alienware 34 QD-OLED. ![]() ![]() ![]() PS3 Media Server, a free cross platform Java based UPnP DLNA server especially good for AVC and other current HD media codecs with on-the-fly transcoding.Based on the JRiver Media Center software, includes similar features along with a store for purchasing HD audio tracks.

Pristin, another group under Pledis, actually disbanded after only 2 years because of Pledis Entertainment’s mistreatment. It was because the *senior group under Pledis, Nu’est, almost disbanded. Fans were worried that they might disband and rightfully so not because they weren’t successful. Most of the time K-pop groups disband after their 7-year contract ends or a member leaves. It is called that because every 7 years, K-pop groups have to renew their contract (which is a bond to your company that you must sign to keep promoting in your group). In the K-pop world, there is a phrase called the 7-year curse of K-pop. The third staff even slapped member Seungkwan on the head. Another staff member asked a fan why they don’t like a member from the visual line. One staff member even called Seventeen member Mingyu a pig for eating alone. Soon after this, Pledis entertainment showed signs of insulting the members. When Seventeen appeared on Afreeca tv, Hoshi hinted that Pledis staff take money from the members even though they had little. Seventeen saved Pledis Entertainment from bankruptcy but still, there were problems. All this is what a management company was supposed to do, but the company didn’t do it.

He was in his mid 40’s, and he was thinking that he was going to lose his career because he couldn’t physically do the work. “A worker had been suffering from white finger (a condition that results from the vibration of an air hammer that cuts off the circulation to the fingers), carpal tunnel issues in his wrist, tendonitis in his elbow, and pain in his shoulder. The robot is not only helping build careers, but furthering careers, because they are getting those critical skills at the beginning that will help them later in their career.” – Laurie WellsĢ) Providing a safer, less intensive working environment When more of them share in that experience, it’s good for morale and they’re more positive.
