PPPS: Thus far, I’ve seen one positive review of the comic. PS: Why don’t you go commission a movie where you take GA out of the costume, confiscate his arrows and bow and stick him in a super villain prison just to finish off the franchise? Goyers widely reported synopsis from 2007 goes like this: 'Hes Green Arrow for the first 10 minutes of the movie, and then hes arrested and his secret identity is revealed. I’d rather remember the Black Canary of Birds of Prey, and the Green Arrow of Quiver than this mess. It’s only a matter of issues before Mia and Roy and Connor are trainwrecked as well. If you wanted me to quit a franchise, next time, send a fucking e-mail. Why did you turn the Canar/Arrow relationship of sheer joy at being reunited after the OYL absence into something so destructive? 'We are a family owned company and have been involved in the sewing and vacuum business for over 40 years. It’s abuse, it’s violence and that whole fight to slap sequence is serious domestic abuse from both sides. Arrow Suzi Storage Sidekick in Green Model 804 The Arrow Suzi Storage Sidekick in Green Model 804 has a durable design with composite construction and a vinyl laminate. It leads to damage, confidence loss, feelings of betrayal and a shit load of other problems with later relationships, trust and friendships. Plus, for the record, as a man who has been hit by their partner (said partner is an ex-partner), no, it doesn’t lead to hot sex and lasting marriage. That’s okay, it’s not like Canary wouldn’t be able to hold her own against a human oppone… oh forget I said anything. We got it the last 3 times, and the time before that and over in JLA and would you just get a new schtick here? Oh, look Deathstrokinghimself has pointed his big sword at Canary again… twice or three times now? CANARY CRY? No. Why are you systematically trying to destroy the Green Arrow and Black Canary franchise? Why must you insist on adding Deathstroke the Uninteresting into the mix? Deathstork hates Ollie.

![]() There are, of course, countries that buck the trend. The liters presented refer to pure alcohol (ethanol) consumed through alcoholic beverages, and not the entire drink, which contains other ingredients. Only slightly behind are Western European countries. This table shows the consumption of alcohol per capita in all countries in the world, ordered by the highest consumption rate to the lowest. Europe consumes the most alcohol per capita, particularly in Central and Eastern European countries. The methodology used by the WHO counted use by persons 15 years of age or older. Alcohol consumption across North Africa, the Middle East and the Arab World is particularly low. (per capita) and nearly three times as much as the worldwide average (6.3 liters of pure alcohol per person over the age of 15 over the course of one year). This is a list of countries by alcohol consumption measured in litres of pure ethyl alcohol consumed per capita in a given year, according to the most recent data from the World Health Organization. In 201718, there were 191.2 million litres of pure alcohol available for consumption through alcoholic beverages in Australia, an increase from 187.6 million. Situated between Romania and Ukraine, this former Soviet republic consumes just about twice as much alcohol as the U.S. World map showing countries by alcohol consumption per capita The archipelago paradise in the Indian Ocean is not the most obvious contender for the country with the highest alcohol consumption per capita.

Unrecorded denotes alcoholic drinks produced and/or consumed that are not recorded in official statistics of sales, production, or trade. This move, this spark, then, catapulted me into the construction of a book that morphed my own understanding of masculinity, violence, queerness, and beauty. I did not fully understand this portrait, its innate beauty and tragic story, until I did some growing up and returned home after college. That was the first time I remember seeing the portrait of Benson James, my mother’s older brother, my uncle. I remember asking, “So he was famous?” Our mothers’ voices were quiet but there were small smiles and jokes here and there as they continued to talk.Īfter some time, the boys and I decided to leave the house back out into the setting sun. My mother told us it was our uncle, her older brother. One of my cousins asked about the identity of the man. ![]() I looked at what everyone was fixated on: a man with shoulder-length hair on a white page staring at us staring at him. We raced back into the house to join our mothers in the living room, the colder inside-air biting at our brown skin. My mom told us stories about peach trees and having boxes of peaches during harvest. There was a peach tree in front of her house. ![]() My aunt’s house was a faded light-blue house with a white porch. The summer was a scorcher, a direct type of heat that I tend to only feel being home. ![]() I remember looking through my aunt’s living room window, through a dust-caked window screen, and catching a glimpse of aunts huddled around a book on the coffee table. The afternoon I first saw my uncle was like any other summer afternoon my brothers, cousins, and I enjoyed as children. Specify a negative number to decrease militancy.

Though often related to a sexual nature, it can also be towards anyone preying on the young. This Chinese insult is used to label something a predator. If foxes are bad for women, then wolves aren’t great for older men. If you call someone a fox spirit, you are calling them a danger to men that possess some dark intentions. For women, unfortunately, this becomes an additional insult in the Chinese language. 狐狸精 (hú li jīng) - “Fox spirit”įoxes carry deep symbolism in Chinese culture. Instead, keep this one between your friends at the pub. Because of its tone and situational use, steer clear of using this one at work. Instead, you use this Chinese insults to call someone out on their b.s. This is Chinese’s equivalent to “bullshit” and “bollocks.” You don’t so much call someone 狗屁. In the hard-working world in China, you can only imagine how many people have earned this distinction. 拍马屁 (pāi mă pì) - “Pat a horse’s ass”Įnglish Speakers call it “brown nosing.” Others might say ‘kiss up.’ Regardless the term, these insults will let the person know you think that they endear themselves to higher-ups quite often. This one also ties back into history with an intriguing test of strength amongst some Mongolians. However, when saying a bragger is blowing up cow’s skin, you have to include it on your list. This is probably the tamest insult on the list. Use this to describe the same typically male crowd in China as you would across the globe. Around the world it seems that a pig’s head is known for the symbol or being stubborn. This is one that English speakers should have no problem recognizing. The engine block can develop small cracks, which allow a coolant leak. If your radiator seems fine, consider the engine block. The good news? All it takes to avoid a costly engine repair is to plug up the leaks with a radiator stop leak product. Corrosion often leads to coolant leaks.Ī leaky radiator allows draining of your coolant to the point where your engine overheats. The radiator takes a beating from rocks and other debris you pick up on the road.Īlso, if you don’t flush it on a regular basis, it can develop corrosion from sludge build-up. If you’re fortunate enough to find a leak without any further testing, you can move on to the next step.īut first, aren’t you curious why a radiator springs a leak? Look where it’s located-at the front of your vehicle. If you find rust spots, check also for visible signs of radiator fluid. If there’s a coolant leak, coolant and water escaping from the radiator can cause rust development. The outside appearance of the radiator often tells the story as well. If the leak is in the radiator, you’ll see coolant on the cardboard. Place a piece of cardboard under your car and check it in the morning. The simplest test for a leak in or near the radiator is the cardboard test. Now it’s time to get up close and personal with your radiator. So far, you’ve checked your coolant, watched for puddles of fluid under the car, and checked out the hoses. ![]() If the hoses look good, move on to the radiator. They don’t cost much to replace and you can probably switch the culprit out by yourself. If you detect a leak in any of the cooling system hoses, you’re in luck. Most vehicle cooling systems have 4 main hoses: Hoses are the number one cause of coolant leaks. If you’re even more convinced you have a leak, check your hoses. If you notice low levels of coolant in the reservoir, take a minute and top it off before driving. If you have a coolant leak the level in the reservoir won’t get to the high fill mark, even when the vehicle is warm. Your coolant reservoir is also the first place you’ll be able to notice a leak. Voila! It’s a plastic receptacle and usually has a low and a high fill mark. Follow it from the radiator to the reservoir. If you’re not sure where it’s located, find your radiator hose. The coolant reservoir stores excess coolant fluid until it’s needed. If you weren’t aware, the coolant reservoir is not your radiator but it is a vital part of the cooling system. The smart thing to do if you notice a puddle is to check your coolant reservoir. It could also be from a car belonging to another driver. When you run your AC you’ll see condensation in the form of a puddle. Now don’t panic every time you see a puddle under your car. The cooling system is a closed system and while it allows for evaporation, if you see coolant on the ground, you have a leak. Anytime you see coolant under your car, it’s a bad sign. You assume if the puddle isn’t large, you’re fine. If you’ve ever noticed a puddle of fluorescent green or orange fluid under a car, you’ve seen coolant. Be aware there are other reasons why a gauge gives a hot (or cold) reading that has nothing to do directly with a coolant leak.Ī puddle under the car should be your next clue. The temperature gauge is relatively reliable as far as warning you of a possible leak. Pay attention when it comes on and then take the car to a mechanic, so you can have the error codes read. In newer model cars, the check engine light may also be an early indicator of a cooling system problem. And overheating engine usually leads to a towing charge. Never ignore a high temperature gauge reading because it could mean your engine is overheating. ![]() A high temperature gauge reading could indicate a loss of coolant. The first clue of a problem with the cooling system often comes from the temperature gauge. ![]() If you don’t pay attention to any other gauge on your dashboard at least pay attention to your temperature gauge. Hint: Sometimes your car gives you clues before the engine overheats. Read our definitive guide on detecting and sealing coolant leaks in your car. We can’t tow your ride, but we can help you figure out the problem. So you sit there, hands frozen on the wheel and wonder if you should keep driving or phone a friend. Until the day you’re sitting at a red light performing car karaoke and notice smoke pouring out from under the hood.Įither your radiator randomly sprung a leak or maybe it’s been slowly leaking coolant for weeks and you had no clue. Throw a quart of oil in now and then and you figure your maintenance program is complete. ![]() ![]() Please don't be tempted to use this rope and then use knots to terminate it. Even the very fashionable and expensive Spectra softies will be within reach. A simple eye splice will let you replace the equivalent of a Nicopressed eye, but with just a bit more related skill you can make a host of other cordage tools. This lock, called a Brummel, holds the splice together under low load, until the larger loads come on to provide strength via compression on the bury. Since the material is very slippery and even low percentage loads are quite high, we do a little locking arrangement before we do the bury. This constriction combined with friction makes for a near 100% efficient splice. The splice works on the same principle as the Chinese handcuff trick, the tighter the rope is pulled, the more the tube constricts. To splice single-braid, you simply tuck the end of the rope down the center of the fiber tube. If you look closely at the braid, you will see that six strands rotate to the left, and six strands rotate to the right around the rope. The rope is very slippery so the sail slides down easily and so small that it has very little windage.Ī single-braid rope is braided up with typically 12 strands of fiber, and this 12-strand braid forms a tube. Examples of this line are Samson Amsteel Blue (and New England Ropes Endura 12 (Even something as simple as lazy jacks can be better implemented in very small Spectra. These can all be replaced with 12-strand high-tech line made from Spectra, Dyneema and Vectran. We also all remember dirty wire, meat hooks and bulky Nicopress fittings. Using 7x19 wire in backstay adjusters, boom vang cascades, halyards and many other places used to be the norm. This all combines to give us a better "tool" to use on our boats. Fiber is easy to terminate too, and something you can do yourself. Fiber materials are far lighter, stronger pound for pound, less expensive, more flexible, smoother running and corrosion proof. I am not quite at a point say we don't need wire standing rigging, steering cables and the like but their day is coming, too. Single-braid, high-tech lines have displaced the need for 7x19 wire and Nicopresses. I am going to make the bold statement that there is no reason to use wire rope in our running rigging any longer. Strong, tough single-braid can replace wire with the right splicing method ![]() A few nice set piece moments and bosses but not much else really. Everything else is your standard quest structure.

Torgue’s Campaign of Carnage and see if you have what it takes to become champion of this brand new storyline in Borderlands 2.

Torgues Campaign of Carnage DLC, Sir Hammerlocks Big Game Hunt DLC, Tiny Tinas Assault on Dragon Keep DLC and Ultimate Vault Hunters Upgrade Pack DLC.
