![]() Pranayama aka yogic breathing techniques that emphasize moving prana, also known as Life Force, through the body to enhance energy.Modern Hatha Yoga Primarily Encompasses a Physical Practice Today, hatha yoga is seen as a physically challenging practice with the emphasis on precision, alignment, stability, strength, and flexibility( 4 ). The classical meaning of hatha yoga is different from the modern interpretation. Hatha means Sun and Moon in Sanskrit – Ha (Sun) and Tha (Moon). As this practice originated in India, many of its traditional fundamentals and practices have been lost in translation as well as in the westernization of this practice ( 3 ).Īccording to Ekhart Yoga, the true definition of this practice is found in its name. ![]() While this isn’t necessarily incorrect, it does not truly encompass what hatha yoga actually is. These poses are seen as a tool to help balance the mind, body, and spirit to prepare for a meditation or a calming, peaceful state of being. It is made up of simple and advanced challenging poses that you can see all over Instagram and other social media platforms. To many, hatha yoga simply refers to the yoga asanas or poses many of us are familiar with.

![]() The candle was added as a last little touch, either to suggest the “red light” on modern TV cameras, or to simply make the whole thing look even more like a weird magitek contraption. There was no actual necessity to make the camera look mechanically sound, but I did want to add just a dash of plausibility, so I added a little crank on the side there, to hint at some kind of inner workings - in all honesty, though, the cameras from Terry Pratchett’s Discworld series (with little gremlins inside actually painting the pictures *really* fast) was foremost on my mind when building this model □ Those gnoblars are just incredibly useful conversion fodder!Īnyway, here’s the conversion I came up with: My own model was then painstakingly grafted together from all kinds of odds and ends, mostly bitz from the Ogre Kingdoms catalgoue, really, that came from a rathe big job lot of ogre bitz I bought a couple of years ago. I thought these were such a wonderful little touch, and – avid kitbasher that I am – I couldn’t stop wondering how difficult it would be to come up with a little “camgrot” of my own.īefore I actually started converting, I tried to get a couple of proper screenshots of the camgrots from the game (which turned out to be rather tricky, seeing how they are only ever in the frame for a couple of seconds, or so small that you cannot get a good enough look at them), but I ended up capturing a few pictures of the sneaky gitz… One thing I immediately noticed when playing the Blood Bowl II video game were the little goblin cameramen appearing in every other scene (and during the actual games): Now what is this supposed to be, I hear you asking, some kind of sneaky special weapon? More than anything, however, it’s a characterful little piece with just the right amount of humour, and hence an ideal addition to the Ultraz! □ Also, seeing how I’ve had this guy in my bitzbox for ages, I would say he also qualifies as a neglected model for Azazel’s June challenge.īut wait, there’s more! For instance, I still want to address this mystery model I shared with you a while ago: In terms of gameplay, this little guy could be a model for an assistant trainer (haha, yeah right! □ ). And afterwards, the Orkheim Ultraz’ “Kit-Git” was finished: Not bad, eh? And a few more tweaks and touchups later, I had a mostly finished model:Īt this point, it was mostly a matter of adding some subtle “special effects”, so I added some Tamiya Clear Red to the severed (?!) human head, and yet more Tamiya Clear Red, albeit thinned down, to the big chunk of meat on the model’s left shoulder, making it look suitably juicy and …erm “tasty” □Īll that was left was to quickly finish the model’s base. ![]() When it came to painting the model, it was mostly a question of blocking in some base colours, then adding a heavy wash of Army Painter Dark Tone and watch it do most of the work for me: Even so, I grafted an ornamental wing to the head sticking out from the backpack, making it look like the remains of an unlucky player from an opposing team… It was already quite characterful enough and didn’t really require any conversion. I loved the idea of having a massively overburdened little greenskin lugging around the team’s extra equipment/trophies/snacks, and the model perfectly fit the bill! It’s basically a stock model, one of the “bonus gnoblars” that came with most of the Ogre Kingdoms kits. ![]() And sometimes you just have to go with what feels right in this hobby of ours, right?įortuntately enough, I didn’t have to dig deep into my cupboard of shame, because there was this little guy here, set aside as a part of my Blood Bowl project years ago: …must have lit a bit of a fire under me, because I really felt the need to add some more, slightly humorous, grots to my collection. Oh well, what can you do…Īnyway, painting that little snotling with the hammer recently – this little fellow here -… So, in a move that probably borders on being suicidal, I am following it up this week with yet more Blood Bowl content. My previous post showcasing my finished Ork Blood Bowl team must have been my least successful post this year, both in terms of views and comments, unfortunately enough. ![]() Learn how to downshift without the clutch. You may find you go faster because your focus on braking doesn’t collide with your focus on shifting. Enter a 3rd gear corner in 4th gear and then shift down after the corner. Since you won’t have much acceleration on the exit, this will force you to keep as much momentum as possible at the entry. Whatever the top gear is for your track, stay in that the whole time. Doing this drill will eventually lead to increasing your entry speed all the time. If you’re not allowed to use your brakes, you become very aware of your speed. One of the biggest problems intermediate drivers face is the inability to sense speed. Figure 8s on a skid pad are ideal, but also hillclimbs with lots of switchbacks, or tracks meant for drifting. Mix up 9-n-3, shuffle, hand-over-hand, and one-handed techniques. Now what? Here are 7 of my favorite drills. So let’s say you’re at your favorite training venue. It’s faster and longer, but has some of the same qualities. Apparently it can be run backwards and they even drive it in the Winter. There’s a good mix of corner geometries and big changes in elevation. That’s a crazy number of corners per hour. I’ve only turned a few laps there, but it left a big impression on me. The best training track I’ve been to in real life is Pineview Run. rFactor 2 doesn’t have much in the way of dirt, skid pads, or drift courses, so I go with Brands Hatch Indy and Lime Rock Park. I actually spend a fair amount of time on one called Drift Playground. AC also has skid pads, figure 8s, and some great drift courses. I like Karelia Cross and Gentlemen’s Rallycross in Assetto Corsa. In the virtual world, some of my favorite training tracks are fantasy rally courses. Whatever your budget happens to be, you want to get the most for your money. Whether you’re talking about a $1000/day racing school, time on a simulation rig, or driving around a parking lot, there are always expenses. 1 hour on track is okay at the start when track days are overwhelming, but once you get over that, 2 hours is better. You can’t do that with a couple 60 second autocross runs per day. Some people learn faster than others, but everyone has to earn their own expertise. You can buy a lot with money, but not expertise. Ultimately, there’s no substitute for practice time. Slow speeds and low grip are the formula that let you explore the critical border between slip and grip. That safety equates to your confidence and ability to learn. And speaking of speed, you don’t need sticky tires either. You don’t need to go fast to work on technique. If a track can be run in a reverse direction, that’s a bonus. 90s, carousels, decreasing radii, off camber, ascending/descending, etc. Each type of corner has a different optimization strategy. Getting better at track driving means getting better at braking, steering, accelerating, and most importantly, combining them to achieve balance. That means you don’t want lap times that are 4 minutes long. If you’re working on your technique, you need repetition. ![]() ![]() If you were headed to a track right now and wanted to work on your driving skill, which track would you choose and what drills would you do? First, let’s consider what makes a track great for learning.

![]() Yeah yeah, I know that is a general belief that these driver updaters are garbage and that they always break stuff. Time will tell, but this certainly surprised me. If you want an excellent soundcard that actually has superb driver support this moment, get Sound BlasterX AE-5 for sure. I guess motherboard makers integrating more and more capable soundcards pressured them into being more active with software support if they want to sell more stand alone soundcards. People won’t have to be scared of buying an expensive soundcard and finding out it’s just a nice paperweight after 2 years or when new major Windows version is released. I have no clue how a long term software support for AE-5 will be, but if they continue this trend and actually provide this kind of level of software and support in the future, things are looking pretty bright for Creative. And goodies like Filter mode for the DAC’s which just appeared out of nowhere in the Connect 2. And for the new Creative Connect 2 control panel, they listened to our wishes and added few things that were necessary but missing at first (like more user defined EQ presets and not just a single “Custom”). They also dramatically improved installer which is ultra fast now and feels way less problematic than before. And they always responded within a day and in case of microphone problems even supplied me a solution and in next update fixed the actual issue. I’ve also contacted their tech support during this time because AE-5 had a bit buggy software since it’s rocking whole new interface. That’s more drivers than 2 old series of soundcards from the past combined! In just half a year time. Last one just released on 9th February 2018. To this date, I’ve received 5 driver updates since its launch in August 2017. I’ve had Sound BlasterX AE-5 since October 2017 and what I can clearly confirm is the rate at which Creative is releasing updates for it. Software was often really buggy, problematic to install and use. If you got 2 updates a year and actually got a full driver for new version of Windows, it was basically a miracle. ![]() What’s really different this time seems to be the part which Creative has been lacking for years and decades. But that’s no surprise, Creative has made high end soundcards before… It even makes clicking sound as you’re switching audio/speaker modes and it’s switching circuitry, just like on high end amplifiers. They crammed really high end components on it, the sorts you find in Class-D amplifiers. Probably the most advanced soundcard made by Creative after X-Fi, capable of outputting 32bit audio at 384kHz and having DSP unit capable of processing 32bit 96kHz audio. I literally never experienced anything serious with it. ![]() These were the first Creative Labs soundcard series which had zero problems on my system with any kind of audio, be it games or general multimedia. Things really changed when I’ve gone back to Sound Blaster with the newly released Sound Blaster Z series at that time. I’ve also had Diamond Monster II with Aureal Vortex and ASUS Xonar Essence STX in between, but that’s for some other time. And continued this with Sound Blaster Live! 5.1, Audigy 4 Value, X-Fi Xtreme Music and Auzentech X-Fi Forte which was based on X-Fi chip, but with higher quality DAC’s, OP-Amps and audio capacitors. I’ve started with Sound Blaster 128 back in 1998. I’m pretty sure we’ve all had Creative soundcards in our systems at one point. ![]() From camper registration to staff recruitment to meal planning, find a platform that enables you to manage it all efficiently.

The entire life cycle is usually from 10 to 15 years while some may even live beyond that age given the right care and nutrition. Tabby cats grow at the same rate as with other domestic cats of the same breed. On the other hand, smaller cat breeds that feature a tabby coat pattern include the Russian Blue, Devon Rex, Cornish Rex and Singapura. The world’s heaviest tabby cat, Himmy from Australia, weighed 46 pounds and 15.26 ounces. Large-sized or heavy cat breeds that feature the tabby coat pattern include the Ragamuffin, Bengal, Turkish Van, Maine Coon, Persian, Siamese, British Shorthair, Ragdoll, Burmese, Norwegian Forest, American Bobtail and the Egyptian Mau. They are considered adult upon reaching one year old and become fully grown when they reach 18 months of age although some breeds like the Maine Coon may grow up to five years old. Male cats weigh more compared to female cats since they are usually two to four pounds heavier. Their maximum height is about 16 inches.Īverage adult tabby cats may weigh around eight to 12 lbs depending on the breed. They can grow into a maximum weight of more or less 18 pounds. How big a tabby cat can get depends on the breed of the cat. A tabby cat is not a breed but a coat pattern and the size of a tabby cat varies depending on the breed. They get along well with people and children but sometimes they are also a handful. ![]() Tabby cats are special because of their unique coat patterns along with a dynamic and affectionate personality.
