![]() Couldn’t Irish poetry and American movies have had a happier marriage? A wonderful film seems to be peeking through a pile of hysterical shards and smashed bits. And the art direction by Anton Furst (“Company of Wolves”) and cinematography by Alex Thomson (“Excalibur”) make it a film bursting with visual splendors.īut for all that, watching “High Spirits” (MPAA rated PG-13, for sex and nudity) dampens yours. The actors who hit the right key throughout are Ray McAnally, Connie Booth and D’Angelo and Neeson, who make a evilly well-matched couple. The movie is hectically choppy and fragmented.Įven so, “High Spirits” has delightful moments: the unearthly puppet show deluge, the goofy Hannah-Neeson dance of death, the lakeside idylls and trysts between Guttenberg and Hannah, staged like screwball Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Whether this is Jordan’s choice or whether “High Spirits” is the latest victim of that Hollywood epidemic-pre-release market research and shredding-the result is the same. Peter O’Toole unaccountably disappears from the middle, where he’s most needed Donal McCann (“The Dead”) is barely visible and the story begins in Ireland, when it seems obvious that it should open with the Americans. It begins on too high a decibel, too spirited a pace. The American big-movie sex comedy conventions overwhelm Jordan’s liberating poetry, his wild lyricism. In the end, both cultures, and the living and the dead, ravish each other and wind up dancing in the drafty, daft castle hallways.īut in the movie, the opposite seems to happen. In symbolic terms, the virility of Irish legendry overwhelm an Americanized attempt to counterfeit or spirit them away. In classic farce style, the ghostly couple pair off with the live one and the real ghosts overwhelm the phony ones. Jordan’s turn of the screwball here is that the castle is actually haunted by a troubled 200-years-dead couple (Daryl Hannah and Liam Neeson), trapped in a nightly re-enactment of their murderous nuptials. The others include a yowling parapsychologist (Martin Ferrero), his flaky wife (Connie Booth, of “Fawlty Towers”) and a kitten-voiced sexpot (Jennifer Tilly), her eye on a hapless Catholic novitiate (Peter Gallagher). The forecloser’s daughter, Sharon (Beverly D’Angelo), married to a charming nebbish, Jack (perhaps inevitably, Steve Guttenberg) is one of the customers on the unveiling of Plunkett’s haunts. Plunkett is being dunned by an Irish-American emigre who wants to transplant the castle to Malibu. Jordan sets his film in the Irish countryside, in a storybook castle on a lofty hillside, where an impoverished Lord, Peter Plunkett (Peter O’Toole) desperately tries to save his bankrupt patrimony by converting his castle into a ghostly theme park with banshees on pulleys and servants under sheets. This perception may blind people to “High Spirits”’ merits: the cunning cross-cultural satire, the magic, splendor and spectral lyricism beating at this movie’s divided heart. Yet this latest movie is likely to strike audiences, and even Jordan admirers, as a big, crass spectacular gone madly wrong: an overloud, frenetic try at a “Beetlejuice”-style scare comedy, full of gauche gags, contrived romance and screaming actors. He is equally at ease in the realms of the fantastic (“The Company of Wolves”), a gritty-poetic Graham Greene realism (“Mona Lisa”) and the crisscrossing borderland between the two. ![]() All spiritual input is provided by an authentic Spiritual Messenger.You might not be able to tell from “High Spirits” (citywide), but Irish writer-director Neil Jordan is one of the world’s most brilliant young film makers.

Example:Īn intermediate shaft in a transmission is composed of two different cylindrical sections which are coaxial. In fact, in most cases, the use of runout or position should replace the need for concentricity and be much easier to measure. Equal mass or inertial concerns are one of the leading causes for the concentricity callout, however are often better designed with runout. Transmission gears, which need to always be coaxial to avoid oscillations and wear, may require concentricity to ensure all the axes line up correctly. When Used:ĭue to its complex nature, Concentricity is usually reserved for parts that require a high degree of precision to function properly. While Concentricity controls the derived median points (imperfect and scattered) of surface elements, position will control the axis (perfectly straight) of the feature. If a part is perfectly round (perfect circularity), the runout measurement will equal the concentricity, if the part is perfectly centered (perfect concentricity) the runout will equal the circularity.Ĭoncentricity is similar to position, however is not the same. ![]() ![]() Runout is a combination control that can indirectly control concentricity and circularity simultaneously.Į.g. Both tolerances measure derived median points compared to a datum plane/axis and are notoriously difficult to measure. This can only be done on a CMM or other computer measurement device and is quite time-consuming.Ĭoncentricity is considered the “circular” form of GD&T symmetry. Finally, these points are compared to the tolerance zone established by the datum axis. The median points of these diametrically opposed surface points must then be mapped out for the entire feature. First, you must establish a datum axis which to measure, Once the datum axis is established you must now take measure many a series of cross-sections (however many is realistic) to establish “diametrically opposed” (surface points directly opposite from each other across the diameter) surface points. ![]() All median points along the entire feature must be in this tolerance zone.Ĭoncentricity is considered one of the most difficult Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing symbols to measure, due to its difficulty in establishing the midpoints of the feature. Concentricity is a very complex feature because it relies on measurements from derived median points as opposed to a surface or feature’s axis.Ĭoncentricity is a 3-Dimensional cylindrical tolerance zone that is defined by a datum axis where all the derived median points of a referenced cylindrical feature must fall within. * In the ISO Standards, MMC is allowed with concentricity and symmetry Drawing Callout:Ĭoncentricity, (called coaxiality in the ISO Standard), is a tolerance that controls the central derived median points of the referenced feature, to a datum axis. Relative to Datum: Yes MMC or LMC applicable: No* Learn more about changes to the 2018 ASME Y14.5 standard. It is still commonly in use for those on previous versions of the standard. Although a separate caliper tool and snapping to center are fancy features, I guess it would be both practical and doable by that "virtual constraints".Note: Concentricity was removed from the 2018 ASME Y14.5 standard. This object will provide us distance, x, y and z which we can use it in the Spreadsheet and set some other things.We'll select two points (in real life we would take measurements between points).Lets think there is a caliper tool (like in Manipulator WB) which will snap to vertices and center of circles.Yes, I thought about that too, but what if the objects will be rotated? Or objects have no plain faces?Īll these experiments were for clarifying if "Asm3 is the right place to ask this or not" (from the point of view of myself) and led me to that point: This feature (which I want to call it "Assembly Dimensions") should be used in the following way ( in the end): You can use constraints other than point coincidence, for example, to measure point to plane distance with perpendicular and point in plane. ![]() That would be an obvious resolution, but it seems it's not that practical because we have to explicitly declare all constraints for a design, which removes the freedom of "okay, you, box, stay where I put you".

Both take the most identifiable aspects of traditional Federation designs, and improve upon them. If the Sovereign is representative of Star Trek TNG movies, then the Odyssey can be considered the literal “poster child” of Star Trek Online. So I’m cheating a bit here by double-dipping the Odyssey and the Sovereign, but they share many design elements: oval, elongated saucer, a streamlined silhouette, stretched out hull and nacelles. In addition to its top-tier trait, the Vastam fulfills both form and function, a rare combination! The Vastam has now replaced my Reman captain Xymok’s Kara - I actually quite enjoy the fat War Owl, but it turns so poorly I needed something else. I just got this over the weekend and WOW! This thing is a beauty! Actually the Deihu is just as pretty, with the too-bird-like Baratan trailing behind them, but overall they all look great. Wow, it’s so different than everything else seen before and the flowing contours even manage to convey the aquatic nature of the… well, Xindi Aquatics. I loved this design the first time I saw it on TV. My only complaint is that they’re really tiny if they were a bit bigger these guys would be intimidating! With their native black hulls, the Klingon pilot raptors are sinister-looking. The Ryn’kodan looks almost like it’s a Babylon 5 design, or a Mon Calamari MC80 cruiser (it’s a Trap!), and it’s beautiful.Īrguable the best-looking Klingon ships by far, these sleek machines look like the sports car version of the Bird-of-Prey, flattened to be aerodynamic, fast and deadly.

So with no further ado, here are my Top 5. There are a lot of very good-looking, sexy ships, but also a good number of absolute stinkers. ![]() It’s a mixed bag of canon ships seen in the TV shows and movies, a handful of non-canon designs used in Trek-related works, and original Cryptic designs. There are literally hundreds of playable ships in-game now. Commanding officers required a minimum rank of vice admiral or its KDF/RRF equivalents, respectively, to attain command of such a ship.I don’t think it’s a stretch to say that most STO players play the game for ships heck, it’s pretty clear that’s Cryptic’s main source of income! And who can blame them/us? Flying starships in the Star Trek universe is what sets the game apart from every other MMO out there, so we should all proudly embrace this! In addition, command battlecruisers were equipped with a technology allowing them to inspire Allied crews to improve combat performance.Īll nine command battlecruiser starship classes were tier 6 vessels. Its advanced communications array was capable of relaying battle-critical information instantaneously. The command battlecruiser was designed to function as mobile command center. The Allied militaries Starfleet, the Klingon Defense Force and the Romulan Republican Force developed three modular command battlecruiser starship classes each. Based on after-action reports by its captains, Starfleet Command had the SCE develop the command battlecruiser at the San Francisco Fleet Yards. With a small crew compliment typical for vessels of this size and role, the Escort class vessels are unable to man full medical facilities onboard, but with extensive armour and weaponry, coupled with its speed and agility, this is of minimal concern for astute Captains.įollowing the end of the Federation-Klingon War of 2405-2410 and the advent of the Alpha Quadrant Alliance formed between the United Federation of Planets, the Klingon Empire and the Romulan Republic, joint operations were prioritized by Starfleet. The Escort is a Tactical vessel, and any Captain with a thorough understanding of tactical warfare will be able to maximize the effectiveness of their vessel at the forefront of battle. ![]() ![]() With the ability to equip cannons, these ships are designed to damage and destroy enemy vessels quickly and efficiently, and it is at this single role that they excel.

She spoke out through a series of Instagram stories on November 24, criticizing Israel for its treatment of Palestinians. NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Supermodel Gigi Hadid called out Israel for using the blanket term of "terrorists" for Palestinians. They argue against any justification of patents. Traditional communists ideals argue against having any patent law entirely. Patent laws are the most significant legislative structure existing to protect intellectual property. Communist theory about software is similar to traditional open source arguments: that source code sharing can provide greater access my multiple people, and therefore the greatest minds can all work on it at once, thus producing higher quality software. Modern communist theorist Maarten Vanheuverswyn argues that the sharing of software and ideas benefits society because "human knowledge and the produce of human labour is used to the advantage of all society." In this thought framework, no programmer is compensated personally for their work: the entire society benefits by making source code available because everyone will collectively work on the software as well as collectively reap the benefits. These ideas can be computer algorithms and software, and communists believe in the open sharing of this software. Every idea that is created is a product of society and will better serve society if it is shared and improved on. Karl Marx and Frederick Engels argue in the Communist Manifesto that intellectual property also is always a product of society: "Even when I carry out scientific work, etc., and activity which I can seldom conduct in direct association with other men, I perform a social, because human, act." From this perspective, all of the theories that reference views on physical property can be appropriately shifted to refer to intellectual property as well. Views on specifically intellectual property seem to follow in the same vein. That is how humanity advances. These ideas refer specifically to to property laws and how making property public will fundamentally alter society in a positive way. We all incorporate the advances of others as building blocks in our own thought without even considering it. Communist theorist Mick Brooks stipulates that, "creation is seldom only the result of individual genius. Therefore, anything that a is produced should be owned by the society itself because no one person has solely produced it. Because each human is a product of society, anything he or she produces is also a product of society by translation. ![]() The core principle behind the concept of public ownership is that every person is a product of society. This theory, that all property is owned collectively, stipulates that everything a person creates and owns is also collectively shared with everyone else. ![]() ![]() Haun state " that the maximum welfare of the individual lies in, and in the long run is indistinguishable from, the realization of the maximum welfare of the society." Thus communism argues for the abolishment of all private property, and everything that is owned is owned by all members of society. This potentially benefits everyone in the society as Tao-Tai Hsia and Kathryn A. Because the people themselves get to decide what society produces, everything that is produced by society is also collectively owned by by society. They argue that when individuals own the means of production as in capitalist society, the individuals will exploit the workers and develop a lower class. In this way, communists argue that social classes will be eliminated, because everyone will retain control over what society produces to satisfy their needs. In strict communist theory the "means of production" is collectively owned by the people in a community, to insure that all the people will get the products that they themselves desire. This means of production is the physical and labor capital that is used to produce the different goods in society. The common view is that no person should on their own or control any property, whether electronic, merely an idea, or otherwise.Ĭommunist philosophy centers around the control of the "means of production" in society. This philosophy applies specifically to intellectual property and software. Communist philosophy argues against private property and supports collective ownership. Much of the core tenets of modern communism stem from their ideas on public property and the definition of ownership in society. Perspectives on public goods and property rights are a fundamental part of communist theory and philosophy. ![]() Public Goods and Intellectual Property Rights ![]() Sleep stability: how often your brain wakes up for a moment as you change sleep stages or sleep position (often without you realizing it).Restorative sleep: how much time you spend with your heart rate lower than your usual resting rate.REM sleep: how much time you spend in the rapid-eye-movement sleep stage, when your brain is working on problems and processing emotions. ![]() Deep sleep: how much time you spend in the most refreshing sleep stage.Sleep duration: how much sleep you get on average.Time before sound sleep: how long it usually takes you to really fall asleep.Sleep start time: the time you usually get to sleep.Sleep schedule variability: how much your sleep schedule varies from day to day.It’s available for Fitbit Premium members with Google Pixel Watch, Sense 2, Sense, Veras 4, Versa 3, Versa 2, Charge 5, Luxe, Inspire 2 or Inspire 3 devices.īefore Sleep Profile, Fitbit provided sleep stats, like how long you were awake, your restlessness and your sleep stages, and used them to generate a nightly Sleep Score from 1 to 100.įitbit’s Sleep Profile levels up this tracking, providing a detailed monthly analysis of these 10 features the Fitbit research team identified as most important for a cohesive picture of sleep quality and quantity: The Sleep Profile is Fitbit’s latest rest-related update since introducing sleep tracking in 2009. How the Fitbit Premium Sleep Profile works Here’s a primer on how the Fitbit Premium Sleep Profile works, the six Sleep Profile animals that represent different sleep styles, and seven things I learned (and loved) from my experience. In the name of learning all about my sleep - and potentially getting better rest - I tested Fitbit’s Sleep Profile for two months. Since I work at Google, I’m lucky enough to have easy access to the Fitbit team, who very graciously set me up with a device. At that point, I knew I had to give it a try. Then I learned Fitbit’s Sleep Profile would assign me a “sleep animal” to describe my rest-related habits. But I wasn’t sure how to get an objective read on my sleep quality until I realized Fitbit could track it for me. Before this experiment, I thought it was easy to know how much I slept each night (spoiler alert: it’s not, and you’ll learn why below). Now, I spend a bit too much before-bed time exploring fascinating internet rabbit holes.īut I’ve also wondered if I sometimes feel tired due to an issue of sleep quality, not just quantity. As a child, I’d stay up late to read with a flashlight under the covers. There are few things I love more than sleep, but I just don’t prioritize it enough. As soon as Fitbit’s Premium Sleep Profile launched back in June, I was intrigued by the thought of using data to get better rest. |
