Other times, it will create a repeating sequence (such as the glider, pulsar, and spaceship from the preset dropdown). Sometimes an initial state will create an unpredictable, chaotic sequence. Those 4 seemingly simple rules can result in wildy differing sequences. If a cell is dead and it has exactly 3 neighbours it becomes alive again.If a cell is alive and it has fewer than 2 alive neighbours, it dies of loneliness.If a cell is alive and it has more than 3 alive neighbours, it dies of overcrowding.If a cell is alive, and 2 or 3 of it's neighbours are also alive, the cell remains alive.A cell's fate depends on the state of its 8 closest neighbours (our grid utilises wrapping, meaning a cell on the far left is thought of as a neighbour of a cell on the far right, and the same principle applies at the top and bottom). The game is now ready to begin, and this involves advancing through time one step at a time. You can do this in the above example by clicking on squares, or by picking a preset from the dropdown menu. Before you start the game, you need to provide an initial state. A cell can either be dead or alive (alive cells are coloured blue in our demo). The rules are as follows:Įach cell lives in a square in a rectangular grid. Conway's Game of Life is a game invented by mathematician John Conway in 1970.

"Australia is not ready for the mobility revolution and we need to be” “The impact of autonomous vehicles will be profound to the point that it is hard to imagine a section of Australia that won’t be affected," said Kyle Loades, NRMA Chairman. While these benefits are clearly desirable, a considerable amount of information is still needed to further our understanding of what is ultimately required for a fully autonomous vehicle future. Reduced costs and maintenance requirements.Greater convenience, efficiency and reliability.Greater mobility options: For elderly, young and disabled users.Reduced pollution and emissions: Reducing transport energy consumption by up to 90%.Reduced congestion: Congestion will cost NSW $6.9 billion in 2017.Greatly improved safety: 94% of accidents are caused by human error.This SAE index now globally accepted as the standard for autonomous vehicle development:įully autonomous vehicle capability – where no human is needed and cars do not even have a steering wheel or accelerator – could be here as early as 2025. From autonomous emergency braking, lane and parking assist technologies to enable safer driving, to internet connectivity over mobile networks capable of keeping vehicle occupants connected to the online world, driverless technology is present in the form of connectivity and autonomy in vehicles today.īut what exactly is an autonomous vehicle and what are the benefits?Īn autonomous vehicle is one that can drive itself from a starting point to a predetermined destination in ‘autopilot’ mode using various in-vehicle technologies and sensors, including adaptive cruise control, active steering, anti-lock braking systems, GPS navigation technology, lasers and radar.Īccording to SAE International, there are six levels describing the road from a normal vehicle to a fully autonomous ‘Level 5’ vehicle. The evolution of autonomous carsīut the advancement to fully autonomous will not be a new or sudden concept to any of us. Most recently we’ve seen Tesla’s Model 3, the first mass produced electric car, unveiled at Tesla’s factory in Fremont, California.Ĭloser to home, the NRMA have joined forces with the NSW Government, HMI Technologies, Telstra, IAG and Sydney Olympic Park Authority to launch the very first autonomous shuttle trial in NSW. In response to these challenges, companies across the globe, from car manufacturers such as Tesla, Volvo and General Motors, to tech firms such Google’s Waymo and Uber are spending millions attempting to use new forms of technology to alter the concept of how we move around. The privately-owned motor vehicle has been part of the Australian family for at least three generations, but population growth, increasing urban congestion, constraints on housing affordability and cost of living pressures are disrupting the world of auto mobility. No longer confined to the realms of science fiction, the road for self-driving autonomous cars is being paved for Australian roads today. They had the music playing on speakers so you could hear it, but at 11PM when the sound ordinance went into effect, the music could be heard on your radio! I ended up sitting in my car and listening to the music through my stereo during the show. Attendees were free to either sit in their car or sit around their car to view the light show. The lasers and the laser images kept my attention the entire time and it was truly a great experience. I literally sat there in awe with my mouth wide open for the entire 40 minutes. They then went on to play “Money,” “Another Brick in the Wall Pt.2,” and “Eclipse,” along with many others! The colors of the lasers blended beautifully to give the viewer a type of psychedelic experience. It was so beautiful when I first saw it that I got chills. When “Time” came on, all you see is a clock on the jumbo screen, and as soon as the vocals kick in, the lasers appeared throughout the sky and the trees. These images were telling the story of the songs that were playing which I found super interesting. There were two jumbo screens that had tiny laser projecting images and pictures onto them during the songs. The show kicked off with the song “Time” and it really puts you in a trance. We all know how much The Saw loves a good light show!! Laser Floyd was a light show on steroids. Back when shows were a thing, I would observe the light show that the bands would use and comment on them. I have heard people in real life and in TV shows talk about Laser Floyd and that is what first piqued my interest. Laser Show Coming To Strawberry Festival Fairgrounds The Cabin Fever Drive-In Laser Show is coming to the Strawberry Festival Fairgrounds in Plant City from Tuesday to Friday, January 7-10. I was super excited to go to Laser Floyd because I love Pink Floyd. What is Laser Floyd you ask? It is the most action packed 40 minutes that will leave you mesmerized!! This light show consists of the play-through of Pink Floyd songs with the visual effects done by lasers. The other light show that you can choose is Laser Floyd. The light show was hosted by Cabin Fever and this drive-in laser show is the best way to get out of the house with you family or friends while during the Pandemic! There are two different light shows that you can choose from: A regular laser show, which played 40 second snippets of songs, paired along with some lasers! These songs can range from classic hits, to what is trending and popular today! This is even great for those with young children. Nicknamed the “Cabin Fever Laser Light Show,” the 45-minute family-friendly show features mixed genre music, videos on two screens, hundreds of lasers and music through outdoor speakers and the car radio.What’s going on Butcher Crew?! It’s your Master Butcher, The Saw, and we are going to talk about a laser show that I went to this past weekend. Laser light showĪlso for February, Lifestyle Festivals and Events Company and partner Encore Laser created a drive-in laser show. Masks are required when outside your vehicle.

We thought, let’s save the day and be superheroes,” Del Rio said.ĭressed in capes, wings and masks, stars Aquaria, Asia O’Hara, Kameron Michaels, Naomi Smalls, Plastique and Violet Chachki join Del Rio and work the stage to deliver a comedic drag-style message of hope for a better future. So my question is can I go through the sub panel or do I need to wire directly to the main panel.Unfortunately the main panel is not very accessible to run new wiring so I would like to run the 6-3 from my sub panel to the hot tub disconnect.My home has a 100 AMP sub panel feeding off the main.Electrical Question: Hello Dave, I am installing a hot tub that calls for 50AMP service. It doesn't necessarily mean he has to connect up the third element but does raise yet another question.Panel Options for a 50 AMP Hot Tub 220 Volt Circuit One last point the OP's mention of a third, possibly unconnected element may raise the possibility of three phase? That makes it sound like a fairly 'heavy' unit. However if it did consume the full 50 amps, which is doubtful, at full blast that could be an electricity cost of $1.50 per hour? If it's only small sauna unit a 50 amp beaker may be too big? Fifty amps at 230 is 11.5 kilowatts. On other hand each element may be for 115 volt and it may be 'possible' to connected them for 230 volts by wiring them in series.Įven if the OP was to quote the model number or scan the connection diagram and post it somewhere we are still, by replying, assuming the info is correct. Recommend being careful about giving advice such cases.įor example the heaters elements MAY be for 230 volts 'each'. " situations without the person really understanding what's going on. It's one of these "The red goes here and the black goes there. Tony: This guy/gal doesn't understand enough to parallel or series connect the heater elements as required. MUST BE BONDED to the electrical grounds? May need to check codes in your jurisdiction. is it a code requirement that metal plumbing etc. It also may appear that you do not have the means or the knowledge how to test (safely) for 230 volts?Īlso btw in the case of sauna and spas etc. We had to replace the electronic temperature control for a commercialĢ30 volt fryer and the thermostat unit smaller than a cigarette pack cost a couple of hundred dollars. See paragraph one get some help before you blow something inside the new unit that operates on 115 volts by connecting it inadvertently to The hardware person either does not know waht they are talking about or you misunderstood!Ģ30 volt appliances (using typical North American domestic wiring) use red and black PLUS GROUND and some case also need the white neutral wire. Or it works with only Red and black AND GROUND. Without seeing the hook up diagram hard to tell if the new unit needs all three wires Red, black, white AND GROUND. Making a lot of assumptions if the previous installation had a 50 amp double pole breaker the previous (existing) wiring is adequate for the new item? b) Personal life insurance in case you are not around! Get someone who knows what they are doing before somebody gets electrocuted! Also check your insurance policy a) Home insurance property and personal liability, in case something catches fire or is not grounded correctly. Out of the 4 wire going to the sauna, I only hooked up black, white, and ground, and just left the red dangling.Īm I missing something here? Is it possible to force 240v out of single wire hookup? If so, how? Thanks. Unfortunately, when only hooking up, I still only receive 110 v to the heater according to both my multimeter and a simple circuit tester. Went to local hardware store and bought a 40 amp 120/240 v SINGLE pole breaker was told that that the breaker should recognize whether the appliance needs either 110v or 240 v and would give accordingly. However, no matter how I wire this sauna heater, I seem to be only getting 110v to the elements. It seems that I need a 3 wire hookup for the sauna ( black, white, ground). This is a four wire hookup ( black, red, white, ground). Unfortunately, the power coming off the GFCI seems to be on 110v ( 2 lines 110v each = 220v). I need one 240v line hooked up to power the three heating elements. Recently replaced hottub with a 240v sauna. Previously, I had a 240 volt hot tub with aĥ0 amp Double pole GFCI. In a world filled with crazy content and adult themes, there are still many inappropriate game elements that you may not have noticed when you were playing it the first time as a kid. even after hearing what Captain Keeta, Igos du Ikana and the Garos had to say. Mix in the repetitive nature of the game through the the continuous three-day cycle and the looming destruction of the world literally hovering over your head in the form of a terrifying moon, and you have a truly unsettling gaming experience. exception of the man who was turning into a mummy, who stays alive). Horror is seen everywhere, from ghosts, to the undead, to weird transformations, and the looming apocalypse. One of its central themes is the overwhelming presence of passing away and trauma throughout the world of Termina. What has truly separated Majora’s Mask from other Zelda games is its maturity level and the reliance on creepy elements. Link fought the three of them and ultimately won, earning Link the Elegy of Emptiness. He was protected by the Kings Lackeys, his personal bodyguards. It may have not received the top marks that Ocarina of Time did, but many Zelda fans remember the game as one of the best in the series. Link encountered the undead King Igos du Ikana in the Ancient Castle of Ikana. Despite mainly being a game filled with recycled characters and concepts, Majora’s Mask managed to be a truly unique gaming experience that fans of the series still cherish to this day. To explain the similarities between the two games, Majora’s Mask was determined to take place within the world of Termina, an alternate reality to the Kingdom of Hyrule where the games usually take place. The game reused many character designs from Ocarina of Time, allowing Nintendo to release a new game relatively quickly. We take on the King of Ikana, Igos du Ikana By defeating him, we are tasked to make our way to the top of Stone Tower and stop the curse haunting this land. The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask was released in 2000 as a follow-up to the successful Ocarina of Time. The forward/backward, play/pause, and menu buttons were removed from around the wheel and placed in a row between the touch wheel and screen. It also introduced the touch wheel, which was a touch-sensitive means of scrolling through content on the device. The third-generation iPod introduced a new body style for the device, which was thinner and had more-rounded corners. This iPod model marked a break in design from the previous models.

When it was introduced, the iPod was a Mac-only product. The 1st generation iPod can be identified by its scroll wheel, surrounded by four buttons (clockwise from the top: menu, forward, play/pause, backward), and its center button for selecting items.

A typical mustard plaster recipe includes powdered mustard and flour combined with water or egg white. The actual mustard paste never comes in direct contact with the skin, just the cloth on which it is spread. A mustard plaster should never be left on for longer than 30 minutes. Leaving a mustard plaster on the bare skin for too long will lead to burning, blisters, or potentially even ulcers. Breathing the vapors of a mustard plaster can trigger sneezing, coughing, asthma attacks, or eye irritation. Mustard oil irritates mucous membranes therefore, excessive internal use has been known to cause stomach problems and kidney irritation. Applied externally, black mustard is used in the treatment of bronchial pneumonia and pleurisy. The mustard paste itself should never make contact with the skin. In times past and present, the mixture was spread onto a cloth and applied to the chest or back. Eating and drinking healthy along with getting plenty pf exercise along with home remedies such as this I do believe, has saved not only my health but a lot of money and time.Mustard plaster A mustard plaster is a poultice of mustard seed powder spread inside a protective dressing and applied to the chest or abdomen to stimulate healing. Today, I have not been to the Dr’s office if I can recall correctly for 20 years. By the time I was a teen we began to actually go to an office for all our medical needs, even piercing my ears. They did have an office that you could go to so I assume at that time home visits were emergency & office visits were routine. Faucett (sp?) was young & as they said in those days, “tall dark & handsome.” He was the partner of Dr. In those days, the doctor came to your home so I do not remember too many visits but enough to remember his name & I can remember his features. What I do remember is my father shoving Vicks up my nose, under my nose, shove it down my throat, rub it on my chest & between my “wings” on my back, then cover my chest with his handkerchief and fasten it with a safety pin at the neck placing it under my top or pajamas. I do not remember getting Mustard Plaster treatments as an older child. I remember I had to lay on the countertop for awhile, possibly until it cooled off. Mother then placed a Muslin cloth on my chest & applied the mustard plaster. She would lay me flat on the counter top with no top on. My mother did this Mustard Plaster on me several time that I can recall. When I was young during the late 50’s & early 60’s this was a common practice. Have you never seen Anne of Green Gables? You’re missing out! It’s one of my favorites! □ This is a remedy that Anne on Anne of Green Gables used on Minnie Mae when she had severe croup. 1 It was once part of conventional medical treatment, 2 and available in prepared versions in pharmacies. It can be used to warm muscle tissues and for chronic aches and pains. This is a very effective remedy for breaking up congestion, but you have to be sure you don’t burn the skin – use the olive oil on the chest first! Don’t place the plaster directly on the skin and then blame me if you get “burned”. A mustard plaster is a poultice of mustard seed powder spread inside a protective dressing and applied to the body to stimulate healing. If you have sensitive skin, only use the plaster for 20-30 minutes at a time. Leave this on the chest all day or overnight as long as the skin isn’t becoming irritated.It’s very important to check the plaster from time to time to make sure it isn’t burning the skin.You don’t have to place a hot towel on the paste, but this will help the mustard seed to stay warm and effective. Place this paste on the chest and cover with a hot wet towel. Be sure to place a thin layer of olive oil on the chest before you put the paste on to help keep the plaster from “burning” the skin.Stir in enough hot water to make a thick paste.1/4 cup mustard powder (you can also grind mustard seeds into powder yourself, which would make a stronger and even more effective poultice).How To Make a Mustard Plaster for Congestion This simple remedy truly works! It’s another easy thing you can keep on hand to help your family’s well being. Mustard has rubefacient properties, which means it increases blood circulation, perspiration, and heat to the area of skin where it is administered. Yes, I’m talking about the common kitchen spice! When any kind of chest congestion is present, making a mustard plaster is one option of breaking it up. It is commonly believed that this leads to better longevity at higher rpm. This means that the connecting rod see's less of an angle as the crankshaft rotates which, in theory, means less side-loading friction on the piston. This combination still works out to a 2.0L displacement, however the rod/stroke ratio goes up from 1.70 to 1.77. This configuration uses a standard stroke (88mm) crank, a rod length that is longer than stock (156mm vs 150mm), and a piston compression height that is shorter than stock to make up for the added rod length. The rod/stroke ratio is 1.7 in factory configuration which is pretty good. There are lots of pistons, rods, and crankshafts that stick to these standard dimensions and some of the fastest 4g63 cars in the world have set records using the factory dimensions. The factory 4g63 came with an 88mm stroke, and 150mm rod length, and a 34.9mm piston compression height. Some people want a bigger engine with more displacement, while others want a higher rod/stroke ratio for longevity at high rpm. So you can build them without needing custom parts.Įach one of these combinations as a different Rod Length, Stroke, and Compression Height combination that all add up to a dimension that will fit within the 4g63 block. There are more than 4 configurations however, these are the 4 that manufacturers make shelf parts for. There are 4 popular displacement configurations for the 4G63.
