This inhibits productivity as employees endure sluggish performance or waste valuable time trying to connect or reconnect and get work done. Without reliable broadband internet connectivity, employees experience intermittent glitches, audio dropouts, and degraded experiences with apps such as VoIP, video, and virtual apps and desktops. And the surge in work-from-home has put a strain on the “last mile” of the internet in many neighborhoods. Many at-home workers suffer from contention for limited network bandwidth between household members, spotty Wi-Fi, and outdated consumer-grade hardware. But most employees aren’t getting this frictionless experience. With the dramatic shift to remote work, both employers and employees find themselves having to create an office outside of an office - and needing all the support, consistent connectivity, and access to tools and resources that come with it. It doesn’t matter how great an app or technology tool is if it’s unavailable or performs poorly. If we agree that remote work is, in part, the future of work, we need to think about how to deliver the best employee experience to help keep our people and teams engaged and productive. Simply put, remote work doesn’t seem so, well, remote anymore. I won’t say work will never be the same, but clearly we are transitioning from what existed before this pandemic to what will come after it. The paradigm of the office and our identification with it, including all the things we took for granted, has been turned on its head. Suffice it to say, for many people, a return to an office is uncertain at best. But sometimes events are so monumental that they call for language that dramatic. It’s hard to talk about the global impact of COVID-19 (coronavirus) on work without resorting to clichés or hyperbole.

And that’s a pretty generic and boring plot. They’re basically Robo-Nazis who don’t want Redline to happen on their planet because they don’t want the galactic media to discover their biological weapons. The entire inclusion of the Roboworld military is bad. Now, I don’t really want to discuss the bad part of Redline too much, but I have to at least touch on it. It even has casual fans, hardcore racing fans, and those who see it as a business opportunity. It attracts the young, old, rich, and poor. We learn that the Redline (and its preliminary races) are a huge cultural phenomenon for people of all ages and backgrounds throughout the galaxy. Just looking at the background characters from the start of the movie, between the Yellowline race and JP’s arrival on Europass, we can learn a lot. But the vast majority of the world-building comes from physically seeing the world and the various creatures/people who inhabit it, as well as how those people interact with the world in which they live. Yes, we’re told specific information about Roboworld and its moon, Europass. Likewise, the world(s) in which Redline takes place is built on a similar foundation. The characters in this movie are built on the “show, don’t tell” foundation. Despite many of the characters not having all that much screen time or that many dialogue lines, we learn a lot about them through their actions, body language, and even speech patterns. The soundtrack is also amazing - and is one I regularly listened to long before watching the movie.Ĭharacter and world-building are two other things Redline excels at. I don’t think I have to say much more about that though because you can just use your eyes to figure that much out. As I stated earlier, both the art and animation are amazing. Let’s start this section off with the things Redline does exceptionally well. Machine Head is the reigning Redline and primary rival of JP in the race. Gori-Rider is a gorilla-like police officer with an extremely violent sense of justice. The final two Redline racers are Gori-Rider and Machine Head, who are both independent racers. And connected to Trava and Shinkai there’s an independent racer and member of the Roboworld military, Little Deyzuna. These two teams aren’t really all that important, but Trava and Shinkai get more screen time than Todoroki and Miki do. Todoroki and Miki make up another team, as do Trava and Shinkai. You can kind of think of LynchMan as Captain Falcon if you’re familiar with the F-ZERO game series (or Super Smash Bros., I guess). LynchMan and Johnny Boya are two bounty hunters who make up another team. Unfortunately, these two don’t get very much screen time, which means their theme song also doesn’t get played much. Their car is able to transform into a female-formed mech. Sonoshee McLarenīoiboi and Bosbos are two female racers who make up the team SUPER BOINS. Sonoshee is a cool character, and I’m almost positive she was named after Bruce McLaren so that just gives her bonus points. Her dream is to win the Redline, and unlike JP, she’s willing to do so at any cost. Sonoshee “Cherry Boy Hunter” McLaren is the female lead of the movie and JP’s love interest. We learn a lot about their relationship just through their body language. I think the scene that illustrates this best is when Frisbee goes to visit JP after the Yellowline race. The dynamic between JP, Frisbee, and Mole is one of my favorite aspects of this movie. Backing up JP there’s Frisbee, his mechanic who works with a mob boss to rig races, and Old Man Mole, a junk parts dealer. He’s a purist when it comes to racing and refuses to equip his TransAM20000 with weapons, opting instead to win with his raw talent and speed. “Sweet” JP is the protagonist of the movie. In fact, for racers and fans alike, that probably just adds to the excitement of the event. The problem with that is that Roboworld is a militaristic planet that has taken a stance against the Redline.īut something as insignificant as the military government that rules over Roboworld declaring war against any Redline participants who make landfall on their planet isn’t going to stop the race. Redline is a race that only takes place once every five years somewhere in the galaxy, and this particular year, it’s taking place on Roboworld. However, the racers don’t only have to worry about each other. And weapons of all kinds are allowed, so there’s no shortage of vehicles decked out with heat-seeking missiles and the like. There’s no set course, so they can take whatever route they please to get to the finish line. Because there are no rules, that means the racers can do anything within their power to win. 8/22/2023 0 Comments Tiger stripes camoOutside of Vietnam, Thailand has been one of the most prolific manufacturers of tiger stripe designs since the Vietnam War.Introduced mid-war (1969), the "splotched" tiger pattern seen here, featuring splotchy black stripes over a background comprising dull green & dull greenish-grey with pale greyish-white trace elements, apparently saw service only with CIDG units.This design was introduced in 1964, and saw service primarily with CIDG & other regional militia forces. Another tiger pattern seen here has been designated "zig-zag" pattern.The design next to it is the "sparse" variant, of which there were several fabric weights produced (light, medium and heavy). Introduced in 1969, the design features bold black stripes over a background comprising bright green & light brown with dull pea green trace elements. The distinctive pattern seen here has been named Late War Lightweight Sparse (LLS) in Johnson's book.The Advisor's Type Sparse variant of the above pattern is seen below.This pattern saw service primarily with CIDG units, ARVN Rangers & Special Forces, and featured bold black stripes over a background comprising bold black stripes over a background comprising dark green & dull brown with dull tan trace elements. Another distinctive tiger pattern to emerge towards the middle of the war (circa 1968) has been named Advisor's Type Dense.The pattern features bold black stripes over a background comprising bright green & light brown with dull pea green trace elements. A variation of the above is seen here, which Johnson calls Tadpole Dense pattern. The pattern features bold black (or dark blue) stripes over a background comprising dark green & brown with pea green trace elements. It was introduced circa 1964 and saw production until the end of the war. The tiger pattern illustrated below has been named Tadpole Sparse pattern in Johnson's book.The "sparse" version of the pattern is seen to the left, and the "dense" version to the right. The pattern features bold black stripes over a background comprising dark green & dull brown with tan trace elements. Johnson has named this John Wayne pattern, owing to its specific use in the film The Green Berets starring John Wayne himself. The tiger patterns seen below emerged in 1962 and continued in production until 1975.Illustrated below are the original pattern (far left), followed by two variants designated "sparse" and "dense." Production of this design ended in 1967, although units continued to wear the pattern until 1970. The pattern incorporates bold black stripes over lesser brownish-drab stripes & light green trace elements, with an olive green base color. The very first tiger pattern was a locally-made copy of the French lizard pattern produced for the Vietnamese Marine Corps (Sọc Răn Thữy Quân Lục-Chiến).South Vietnamese Tiger Stripe Camouflage Patterns The term "tiger stripe" (or "tiger pattern") no doubt refers to the rudimentary similarity between the narrow brush strokes of the camouflage design and the naturally occurring hide design of the genus Panthera tigris. The Vietnamese referred to these different designs as Sọc Răn (striped uniform). French camouflage uniforms were in fact supplied to Colonial Vietnamese personnel during the First Indochina War. The term additionally refers to the multitude of derivatives produced by a number of countries well into the present period. The term "tiger stripe" refers to the family of camouflage designs developed in Southeast Asia (particularly the Republic of Vietnam) during the 1960s that were derived from the earlier French tenue du leopard or lizard design of the 1950s. 3 Other Tiger Stripe Camouflage Patterns.2 South Vietnamese Tiger Stripe Camouflage Patterns. 8/22/2023 0 Comments Passport card vs real idWhen we go to renew our kids’ passports, there’s invariably some well-intentioned person there to tell us that we shouldn’t get passport cards because they’re worthless for our purposes. Officials in our country of residence view them as a form of national ID card, which everyone here has, while state-issued driver’s licenses and ID cards are treated with suspicion. Obviously, we’re not crossing any international borders here in Asia using passport cards, but they’ve been extremely valuable to us simply because our kids still have a valid form of ID when their passports are tied up and out of our possession. These cards have been extremely useful for us to prove citizenship, age, and verify their identities for domestic travel. We have 5 children and use their passport cards as a valid, internationally recognized form of ID. Our passports are frequently tied up in embassies waiting on visas to be issued, and we still need to fly domestically within our country of residence.

The only downside was the eye remover, which lacked a sharp enough edge to pull small, precise pieces from our test potatoes, instead leaving relatively large craters behind.īeyond great functionality, the Kuhn Rikon is easy to clean, and you get a bunch of them for your dollar. The Kuhn Rikon even managed to handle the tough butternut squash well, pulling consistent strips of skin from its surface. Plus, if one breaks or gets lost, you have two others as backup.ĭespite the Kuhn Rikon’s plasticky construction and tiny blade, it peeled nearly as well as the Oxo. We didn’t love the clunky, plastic eye remover - it was, frankly, one of the worst we tried - but the Kuhn Rikons otherwise performed so well that we recommend them despite that glitch. These peelers don’t feel like anything special, but their blades are surprisingly sharp and did the job impressively well. Kuhn Rikon’s bright Swiss Peeler 3-Pack is a fun alternative to the Oxo if you prefer Y-shaped peelers or if you’re looking for a little more bang for your buck. Kuhn Rikon Original Swiss Peeler 3-Pack Alex Arpaia/CNN But maintaining the Oxo is easy.īest Y-peeler: Kuhn Rikon Original Swiss Peeler 3-Pack ($12.87 ) Some peelers, especially those with Y-shaped designs, were somewhat easier to scrub down after use. And if you need some extra room, the blade turns far enough to make debris a bit easier to scrub off. There is ample space behind the blade to fit a sponge in and remove caked-on grime. The Oxo also has a potato eye remover located at the top of the device, which is intuitive and simple to use.įinally, cleaning this peeler is easy, and stood out among the swivel peelers. It removed longer strips of the squash’s thick skin with less effort than others. Even peeling butternut squash, which many competitors struggled to shave, was simple with the Oxo. It never varied, and it pulled long, uniform strips with each pass. Regardless of ingredient, the Oxo removed only the top layer of skin. This peeler was also the most consistent, and its blade operated smoothly on a variety of foods. Although it might seem minor, the thicker grip of this peeler makes a real difference in use, alleviating pressure on the wrists and making it easier to use for longer. The Oxo’s handle also features two grip spots near the base of the blade for resting your thumb and forefinger. Competitors had designs that were uncomfortable to hold, like the Linden peeler with its sharply edged handle, or too heavy, like the Williams Sonoma Straight Peeler. Cleaning the Oxo swivel peeler is simple - the blade is easy to scrub around, with ample clearance for sponges, and enough swivel to get into any hard-to-reach places.Īs someone who has grappled with carpal tunnel and tendonitis for years, the standout feature of the Oxo swivel peeler is its wide, thick handle and light weight. It was the smoothest at peeling and excelled on a range of foods. The Oxo peeler beat out competitors because it was the most comfortable to use, with a wider handle that was easier to grip than others. The Oxo Good Grips Swivel Peeler doesn’t look like anything special, but sometimes the best tools are those hidden in plain sight.

The Rock hasn't wrestled a WWE match since his quick-fire victory over Erick Rowan at WrestleMania 32 seven years ago. This is a quote that some stooge reported to a wrestling insider newsletter and now it's written in granite and stone. Then, it just took a life of it's own where, all of a sudden, everyone reading it on the internet and Twitter takes it as fact, to the point where Roman goes on the Tonight Show and tells Jimmy Fallon, 'I understand Rock made a statement and doesn't have time to get into ring shape.' I'm watching this like, 'What? What statement? Show me the statement. That is not the reason, whether it happens or doesn't happen, I know it's a line. 'A source tells him, 'The Rock is not going to make it to WrestleMania because he feels he doesn't have time to get into match shape.' I know that it is not the case. Talking on the Bill Simmons Podcast, Gerwirtz says the report wasn't true and somehow it took on a life of it's own. However, former WWE writer and SVP of Development at Rock's Seven Bucks Productions, Brian Gewirtz, has shut down the notion - leaving the door open to still possibly seeing Dwayne Johnson make some kind of appearance. Reports then emerged that stated Rock had turned down the marquee bout because he didn't feel 'match ready' to main event the show. However, with time running out to lock in one of WrestleMania's biggest ever main events, WWE had to pivot and instead set up the championship clash between Reigns and Royal Rumble winner Cody Rhodes.
