![]() ![]() Since Anvil’s last album, heavy metal had splintered into many subgenres and the band struggled to find its place. Anvil eventually signed with Metal Blade Records in 1987 and released Strength of Steel. However, Krebs had trouble marketing the band to other labels and ultimately dropped it. Sensing the need of a more international presence, in 1983 Anvil enlisted the aid of former Aerosmith manager David Krebs and terminated its contract with Attic Records to pursue wider forms of distribution. Reiner, a jazz-trained drummer, was among the earliest metal drummers to heavily incorporate the double-bass drumming technique. While the group was known originally for its sex-driven, shock-rock lyrics and unorthodox stage dress, Metal on Metal became recognized as a major musical influence on the “big four” thrash bands that would emerge in the coming years: Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, and Anthrax. Anvil returned to Japan in 1984 year for the Super Rock Festival where it shared the stage with Bon Jovi, the Michael Schenker Group, the Scorpions, and Whitesnake. The following year, the band continued to find worldwide success as it toured in Europe and Japan, including the UK Reading Festival headlined by Black Sabbath and Thin Lizzy, and opening on tour for Motorhead. Touring success and influenceĪfter performing in supporting roles for bands such as Iron Maiden and Girlschool during their Canadian tours, Anvil embarked on a world tour in 1982 that included a performance at the Monsters of Rock festival in the UK. The release of Metal on Metal (1982) and Forged in Fire (1983), both produced by Chris Tsangarides, cemented the band’s position in the growing speed metal and thrash genres. Canadian independent record label Attic Records signed the band and re-released the album under the moniker Anvil. ![]() Under that name, they independently released the album Hard ‘n’ Heavy in early 1981. They joined guitarist Dave Allison and bassist Ian Dickson in 1978 and became known as Lips. Ludlow and Reiner had performed together since 1973 in several Toronto-based groups. The band performed as a quartet from 1978 until 2007 when guitarist Hurd left and was not replaced. Other members were guitarists Dave Allison (1978-89), Sebastian Marino (1989-95) and Ivan Hurd (1995-2007), and bassists Ian Dickson (1978-93) Mike Duncan (1993-96) and Glenn Five (born Gyorffy, 1996-2012).

Tampa Bay may have some helpful advantages, like core players taking less of a cap hit while not sacrificing too much money, thanks to the fact Florida has no state income tax. Being as consistent as the Lightning have been, save for the elusive Cup, might be even harder. Much of that core was built by Yzerman or just before he came in during the 2010 offseason, but BriseBois has put his stamp on this team, filling gaps that have been exposed in past postseason failures.īuilding Stanley Cup-winning teams is hard.

Tampa Bay has been close, going to the Stanley Cup Final in 2015, and this year marks its fourth Eastern Conference final in the Cooper era. They've been compared to the San Jose Sharks and the pre-Stanley Cup Washington Capitals for not being able to get it done in the postseason, even though they have the second-most playoff wins in the NHL since 2013-14 with 46, including this postseason. They have scored 1,797 goals - 57 more than the next-closest team over that span - for an average of 3.20 per game while also allowing the fourth-fewest goals per game at 2.64.ĭespite that regular-season success, the NHL's ultimate prize has eluded this era of the Lightning. ![]() Since Jon Cooper's first full season as the head coach in 2013-14, the Lightning have led the NHL with 343 regular-season wins and a.

The hands are the same type as the Nu and Hi-Nu Ver.Ka (and 3.0 I belive). Most notably due to the missing core fighter, it has an excellent pull-out ab crunch. The feet have a wide range of movement and the toes turn. The proportions and swing-down thigh joints allow for more human looking movement/poses, especially aerial ones. This is the best articulated kit of the three. The kit comes with one foil sticker sheets for cameras and eyes and a sticker decal sheet with warnings and a few logos. You cannot replace the left side chest cannon with a plain panel for example. The feet are very flat compared to its cousins and while they have a 'giant robot' charm, it runs counter to the rest of the model.Ĭuriously while the HG version of this kit allowed you to build different versions, this much more expensive kit does not offer the same options. The colors are more classic and subdued while the 3.0 are more saturated, giving this a softer look. While the 2.0 can seem a little bare and the 3.0 a little busy, this one is more in the middle and has more detail on the surfaces and enough scores and panel lines to make the panels pop without the overall look being busy. The 2.0 goes for anime accuracy and the 3.0 along with the RG version were based on the real life statue which featured more detail and color variation, mixing light greys with warm white panels.

Additionally, Keith discovers that the malfunctioning hyperdrive not only sent him far from Terran space but also threw him over 30 years into the future (which is why he has never heard of the Mido Confederation before). ![]() His ship, damaged beyond repair, is salvaged by a Midorian named Gunant Breh, who gives Maxwell a ship and some cheap equipment to perform some tasks to make enough money to buy passage to Terran space aboard a battlecruiser scheduled to arrive to a planet in the system (the system is too new to have a jumpgate). After killing them in battle, he attempts to jump, only to find out that a lucky shot has damaged his hyperdrive, causing it to malfunction and send him halfway across the galaxy to the Mido system. The second game, Galaxy on Fire II (AKA GOF2), starts some time later, with Keith chasing a band of Space Pirates for a bounty.

If 3-5 years down the line I need an upgrade (that’s if I begin to work with others more - which I don’t do at the mo) then I’ll review including whether Sketchup is still the right solution for me.In this blog post, I’m going to discuss the different versions of SketchUp and V-Ray and what subscriptions I recommend you purchase after your trials are up. I’m not going to take the subscription offer up and will keep my perpetual licence going for as long as possible. I’m going to keep my perpetual licence and continue any updates up to that date. A few years later Sketchup are going the same route - arghhhh. At the time I then looked at other CAD software and gave AutoDesk the boot. The whole point of perpetual with maintenance works for me - I did that with AutoDesk paid £000s for software only for them to go to subscription-ONLY a couple of years back and they raised the price of anyone left on a maintenance plan - effectively forcing you over. ![]() Sorry to see the Perpetual licence be removed this year. Say spread the costs over 12 months, that would resolve the above two plans & be more inclusive to smaller practices & individuals & instil a loyal user base. We can all judge were a particular product ranks in value & therefore as time goes by under the subscription-based licence, technically at some point the product would have been paid for in full & then some after this point.Ī perpetual long-term payment plan (interest fee) is another thought. Its natural for anyone to put a value on a product even if not advertised. However, under the subscription-based direction, the value of the product isn’t always clear if this is the only form of licence. Under the traditional license route, the purchase price is clearly understood & an indicator of its value. This direction would recognise loyal users who are likely to stay onboard for the duration. If may be more PC for companies to offer outright ownership (PERPETUAL LICENSE) after the subscription term has run that adds up to the product value. Shorter terms would be money down the drain & wouldn’t make sense in my opinion. However, that’s only the case where fees of this type of plan would be very low & at least taking 5 years+ in total fees for the equivalent outright purchase & actual ownership. NB: Adding teasers (software extras) for one form over the other, subscription in this example is just in poor taste & not PC in a companies standing.īoth have Po’s & Con’s & I can see the subscription-based licenses are now within the grasp of small businesses or individuals where the initial outlay for high end expensive software on a perpetual license may not have been in reach. ![]() The software cost is initially greater than subscription-based licenses & was the traditional/classic way you purchased software prior to subscription-based licenses. This type is a non-expiring license, the customer has no obligation to pay for support or update services & can use the software forever. RANSOMWARE is a phrase I’ve seen, harsh but fitting at the same time. ![]() I’ve never been comfortable on this form of license, as you effectively just rent it & never own it. The duration can vary from a week to a year & expires once that time has run & typically the software won’t work anymore unless renewed. This type requires a fee to be paid over a set period.

And once the state hits a 70% vaccination rate (Hawaii is currently hovering around 60%), all travel restrictions will be lifted. The state is also opening up in other ways, with restaurant capacity increasing from 50% to 75% as of July 8 as well. This news is a big sigh of relief for visitors, especially considering the cost and inconvenience-Hawaii only accepts results from a specific list of providers. Now, travelers will simply have to show their vaccine card. Previously, anyone arriving from the mainland had to present a negative COVID-19 test taken within 72 hours of travel, even if they could flex a vaccine card. Hawaii will be officially open to travelers who have their full dose of Moderna, Pfizer, or Johnson & Johnson, effective July 8, 2021.įrom that date on, vaccinated travelers will no longer be required to provide testing results upon entering the state, USA Today reports-though, that currently only applies to those who have received their vaccine in the US, per One Mile AtĪ Time.

Their bodies are covered by neutral brown feathers, and wings and tail are colored to match. Indeed, female Indigo Buntings (above and below left) at first glance are totally devoid of field marks and have no distinctive shape or size.

We tell beginners that with a little work and a trusty field guide, even a sparrow, female duck, or winter shorebird can USUALLY be identified, but just when novices start to feel a little confident with their skills, the "most nondescript bird in North America" suddenly shows up at a feeder in spring and confounds them completely. Of these, the one most folks notice most quickly is color, including field marks such as spots, wing bars, eye rings, and tail spots. Then we suggest the use of three criteria that help in identification of any new bird: color, size, and shape. Photo credit Alabama Rick.When beginning birdwatchers seem overwhelmed at trying to identify all the avian visitors to their backyards, we first remind them that everybody-novices and experts alike-learns new species the same way: one bird at a time. There are no management plans for this abundant species. Their numbers increase in areas of shrubs with weeds and herbs, and diminish in areas of agriculture, urbanization, and where old fields are returning to forest (Payne). ![]() The population of Indigo Buntings is healthy and in some places in the southeastern United States it may be the most common songbird along roadsides. However, some individuals can move to sites far outside their normal migration route and be seen in British Columbia and Washington (Payne). Indigo Buntings winter almost entirely outside the United States and migrate to Mexico, Central America, and some Caribbean Islands. It has bred at Grand Canyon National Park since 1964. Sine the 1940s it has expanded its range as a summer resident into parts of the southwestern United States. The Indigo Bunting is widespread from the northern Great Plains across all the eastern United States and in southern Canada south of the coniferous forests. The males will sometimes assume the feeding of the fledglings as the female attempts a second brood (Kaufman). The female feeds the chicks and they will fledge in about 10 more days. Usually three to four bluish-white eggs are deposited and will hatch in less than two weeks. The nest is an open cup of grass, weeds, and leaves lined with finer materials. The female does almost all the caring for the nest and hatchlings. The male will mark the territory with song and can have more than one female in the territory. The Indigo Bunting is a bird that inhabits dense shrubs and low trees. After its second winter it will molt into its definitive alternate all-blue plumage and will do so every spring after that. The Marymoor Indigo Bunting was a bird in this stage of development. These first spring males can have a blotchy appearance and often have white feathers under the belly (Payne). After its first winter it will undergo its first pre-alternate molt in which feathers on its head, body, and some wing and tail feathers will be blue and other feathers will be brown. The male Indigo Bunting takes two spring cycles to molt into all blue plumage. The male Indigo Bunting which was seen at Marymoor Park in June sported plumage that was a mix of blue and brown, which was the result of the molt strategy of birds in the genus Passerina (Howell). In winter, the female takes on a more cinnamon coloration following a late summer molt. The female in contrast is a pale brown with two faint wing bars and streaks on the chest and flanks. The male Indigo Bunting in summer is entirely bright blue with the color darker and almost purple on the head (Payne). The species epithet cyanea is from the Greek kuaneos, dark blue (Holloway). The males are brightly colored in alternate (breeding) plumage and the females are more cryptically colored in brown plumage. All four species display strong sexual dimorphism. caerulea) is also in this genus, but we will focus on the four buntings. ciris) Buntings, comprise the four buntings in the genus Passerina, from the Latin for sparrow.
