![]() ![]() We quickly realize, if we’re TV-literate, that we’ve moved on to the sitcoms of the 1960s. Becalmed, it is then implied that they bang.Ĭue the opening credits, these ones done as broad-stroked animation in the style of Bewitched, with Wanda and Vision floating around their little town, grinning. Vision remarks that he “did overhear a few of the lads at work remarking on a few unsavory characters settling in the neighborhood,” which prompts Wanda to point out that those colleagues may have been referring to them.Ībruptly, the beds slide together and Wanda opens the drapes with her powers revealing (seemingly) that it was just a branch hitting the window. There’s a thump of some kind, and Wanda (whose hair and makeup for sleepytime are, of course, impeccably done up, as is appropriate for a period sitcom) and Vision (adorned with an adorable sleep mask) are startled. We then cut to the happy couple asleep in separate twin beds, with a lot of room for the Holy Ghost in between them. We begin, naturally, with Olsen’s voice cheerily declaring, “Last week on WandaVision” and are shown a set of reminders about episode one that feel almost random (why include Agnes saying she’s Wanda and Vision’s “neighbor to the right?”), but which will likely be relevant in the episodes to come. There’s nothing beneath it other than a mystery, one that’s not particularly compelling yet. As I said in the recap of the series premiere, it feels almost unfair to be judging these episodes as stand-alones, because they’re so clearly just a prelude to the real plot, a prelude filled with intentional artifice and homage. Luckily, both actors are pretty much up to the task and keep things both amusing and (somewhat) intriguing.īut what purpose does the acting serve? So far, WandaVision has yet to make much of a case for its existence. We get lingering images of their distinctly un-CGI’d faces and forms. They do the cheesy punch lines they do physical comedy. Olsen and Bettany get plenty of room to breathe and do their beats, most of which in the second episode are simple sitcom doggerel with little twists here and there. ![]() The only way to get us to have an interesting ride on WandaVision is by letting us fall in love not so much with the characters as with the performers. This is a wise move because the characters of Wanda and Vision have been tremendously bland and artistically useless in the MCU up until this show’s advent. ![]() In a stark contrast, WandaVision relies almost entirely on the acting prowess of its titular stars, Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany. When you actually watch the flicks, there are moments of comedy or pathos, for sure, but they’re mayflies, quickly perishing as the action ramps up again and the rapid-fire cuts and CGI bodies that the enterprise is built on keep us from dwelling too much on the work of an actor. The megafranchise has been historically populated by some of the world’s finest living film thespians, from Mark Ruffalo to Tilda Swinton to Cate Blanchett and beyond, but those people are largely just means to an end, a way to juice up the movies’ credibility and star wattage. I will say this about WandaVision: It’s nice to get to see some Marvel Cinematic Universe actors get to actually, y’know, act. ![]() Don’t have Disney+ yet?

Ice cap glaciers are smaller versions of ice sheets that cover less than 50,000 km 2 and usually occupy higher elevations and may cover tops of mountains. Cross-sectional view of both Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets drawn to scale for size comparison (Source: Steve Earle) Vatnajökull ice cap in Iceland The cross-sectional diagram comparing the Greenland and Antarctica ice sheets illustrates the size difference between the two. It s weight depresses the Antarctic bedrock to below sea level in many places. The thickest parts of the Antarctic ice sheetare over 4,000 m eters thick ( >13,000 ft or 2.5 mi). The Antarctic Ice Sheet is eve n larger and covers almost the entire continent. The Greenland Ice Sheet is the largest ice mass in the Northern Hemisphere with an extensive surface area of over 2 million sq km ( 1,242,700 sq mi ) and an average thickness of up to 1 5 00 m eters ( 5, 0 00 ft, almost a mile ). Earth’s largest ice sheets are located on Greenland and Antarctica. I ce sheets, also called continental glaciers, form across millions of square kilo meters of land and are thousands of meters thick. Thickness of Greenland ice sheet in meters (Source: Eric Gaba). A lpine glaciers may also form at lower elevations in areas that receive high annual precipitation such as the Olympic Peninsula in Washi ngton state. Most alpine glaciers are located in the world’s major mountain ranges such as the Andes, Rockies, Alps, and Himalayas, usually occupying long, narrow valleys. There are three general types of glaciers : a lpine or valley glaciers, ice sheets, and ice caps. ![]() T hese s mall air pockets provide record s of the past atmosphere composition. Solid g lacial ice still retains a fair amount of void space which traps the air buried with the snow. As the firn continues to be buri ed, compress ed, and recrystalliz es, the void space s become smaller and the ice becomes less porous, e ventually turn ing into glacier ice. As the old snow gets buried by more new snow, the older snow layers compact into firn, or névé, a granular mass of ice crystals. The amount of void space between the snow grains diminishes. Over repeated seasons of perennial snow, the snow settles, compacts, and bonds with underlying layers. A thin accumulation of p erennial snow is a snow field. P erennial snow is a snow accumulat ion that lasts all year. Thus there is an accumulation of snow that builds up into deep layers. Glaciers form when repeated annual snow fall accumulates deep layers of snow that are not completely melted in the summer. 14.1 Glacier Formation Glacier in the Bernese Alps. Glaciers also occur in low lying areas such as Greenland and Antarctica that remain extremely cold year-round. ![]() These enormous masses of ice usually form in mountainous areas that experience cold temperatures and high precipitation. Glaciers cover about 10% of the Earth’s surface and are powerful erosional agents that sculpt the planet’s surface. In contrast, m asses ice floating on the ocean are icebergs, although they may have had their origin in glaciers. Glaciers are l arge accumulations of ice that exist year-round on the land surface. This ice exists primarily in two forms, glaciers and icebergs. T he Earth’s cryosphere, or ice, has a unique set of erosional and depositional features compared to it s hydrosphere, or liquid water.

What I would really like them to do is make an actual diamond-shaped black diamond, with diamond suit + zero-width joiner + black circle make a small yellow diamond with small orange diamond + zero width joiner + yellow circle Probably the circles, because the squares are complicated.Į.g. Just pick one of the coloured shapes to use as an additional indicator of colour.

(I don’t know why there are orange and blue diamonds I assume they have some cultural meaning.) That’s 27 codepoints just to make colours for three different shapes, and another four codepoints to make colours and sizes for another shape. diamond: small orange, small blue, large orange, large blue (the diamond is really more of a rotated square).square: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, black, white, brown.circle: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, black, white, brown.heart: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, black, white, brown.What is a sequence?

It's nice to be able to make one spoon super long for added force. So, two functions out of three are as-described, and super easy to use. (Especially if you're using spools and a rear stand and the tire is a couple inches from the ground) The wedge doesn't seem like a tool you'd need, but once you use it you'll never want to put a wheel back on a bike without it. My hands were free to fix the cockeyed spacers and hold the caliper in place, and then finally put the axle through. This time I used my knee to shove the wheel wedge under the tire until it was lifted enough to get the axle through. Normally I'd need four hands - two to lift the tire into place and two to hold everything together and keep it from falling. (I swear that bike was made out of lead) Plus all the spacers and stupid brake caliper have to go in perfectly. until one has a Yamaha Bolt, as the rear wheel weighs as much as a small toyota. The Wheel Wedge doesn't seem like something one needs. But even with the longer spoon, for the last 6-8 inches of bead I reached for my trusty Motion Pro 16" curved tire iron. I had to use a little bead locking tool through the spokes to keep the far side of the bead from coming off as I went around with the irons, so that's another thing to pack. It was a little awkward to work around that way, switching the handles around but it did work. Or was, until I realized I could make one lever longer and just use the short one to hold my position. Similarly, getting the top bead back on the rim with these spoons is difficult. I had to use my trusty Motion Pro 16" curved tire iron for that. without a curved lever it's nearly impossible to pull the bottom bead off. I put some serious force on the levers and they didn't bend at all. ![]() On the road, that's all you'd need to pull the tube out and replace it. The levers worked reasonably well for dismounting the top side of the tire. (Sometimes I have to SIT on the lever to break a bead with the Harbor Freight bead breaker). It also took very little effort, just like the videos. It took less time and less effort to break the bead with the Eastbound kit than it takes to use the floor-mounted bead breaker on my Harbor Freight tire changer. With the Eastbound kit, I had the bead broken all the way around on both sides of the tire in under 30 seconds, and part of that was reading the instructions. Never before have I purchased a tire tool that is as easy to use as the youtube videos claim it to be. Mojolever? Both ends sort-of work, but take far more effort than the videos show (and require a tie-down to keep the wheel from rotating). Baja No Pinch? Also didn't work for shit. My motion Pro BeadPro? Doesn't work for shit. You don't understand how big a deal that is. But the kicker is, it took me just a few seconds to master the bead breaker, and. That alone is worth the price of admission. They're ridiculously light compared to the tools I used to carry, and pack up far smaller. However small you think they pack, it's smaller. I needed to change the rear 150/70/17 tire and mount a new Tourance.įirst thing. Today was my first opportunity to use them. I was skeptical about straight spoons, but I went ahead and got the Tyre Pro Base Kit and added the Wheel Wedge to it. After seeing a couple people mention this, I checked their website and the design looked solid. ![]() |
