The move to a fine-free NPL received overwhelming support from local government as well as from the library board, which officially endorsed the eradication of fines in February 2017. there is “still accountability,” said Waltenbaugh. If patrons have two more “lost” items on their account, their card will be frozen until they pay for or return the materials. In addition, once 31 days have passed after a due date, the materials will be considered “lost” and patrons will be billed. Patrons will still receive reminders when a due date approaches and when it has passed. This is a “huge percentage,” she said, and the library was eager to “bring patrons back to the library.” Library books in Nashville will still receive a due date, and librarians do not think that this shift will have a meaningful impact on whether or not patrons return materials on time. They discovered that as many as 50,000 cards were blocked at any given time, out of a total of 300,000 cardholders. TRADING MONEY FOR ACCESS According to Emily Waltenbaugh, public information officer with NPL, library staff were concerned about the number of accounts that had been blocked because of fines exceeding a $20 limit. For both systems, this shift reflects their missions to remove a barrier to library borrowing-blocked card privileges due to fines and to provide equitable access to as many patrons as possible. The SLCPL policy took effect July 1, while the Nashville policy started July 5. ![]() These changes will also wipe out fines that users have already accrued. Starting the first week of July 2017, the Nashville Public Library (NPL) and the Salt Lake City Public Library system (SLCPL) have joined the increasing number of public libraries in the United States that no longer collect overdue fines from patrons.

It won’t be difficult to spot the GT and Performance editions on the street. Do so in the uber-torqued GT Performance edition and you’re liable to swallow a few teeth. Stomp on the gas in the 480 horsepower, 600 ft-pound torque GT and this thing will loosen your fillings. Switch over to the performance-forward Unbridled power management mode - or Unbridled Extend, which optimizes traction and stability control and is great for lapping ICE owners on track day - and the Mach-E GT will haul more ass than a secret lab overflowing with butt monsters. Sure, the pony I drove had plenty of get-up-and-go - EVs are torquey that way - but it never rumbled the depths of my bowels like a naturally aspirated 4-barrel V8 could. When I reviewed the Mach-E base model back in February I found it to be a perfectly serviceable EV, but more akin to similarly-shaped electric SUVs like the Kia Niro or the Volkswagen ID.4 than the venerated muscle cars I hung posters of in my childhood bedroom. Ok so here’s the part of the story where I eat a big plate of crow. Pouring on speed, I finally see what all the Mach-E fuss was about. Sunlight filters down through towering pines, dappling the “grabber blue” skin of my Ford Mach-E GT as it gallops along Highway 1, heedless trivialities like “defensive driving technique” and “speed limits.” Irma Thomas is crooning through the 9-speaker Bang and Olufsen sound system, her rendition of Time is On My Side a stark contrast to the simulated auditory roar of the GT’s twin permanent-magnet motors as the accelerator pedal slaps against the floorboard. Solution: Does your gym offer classes? Do any look appealing? Does it come with your membership? You can also always check in at the front desk for classes that are good for beginners. Am I in better shape, even with my half-assed finding of machines, than I was a year ago? Yep.īlock: Don't like going alone, not good at pushing yourself. Is there a more efficient way to get in shape? Surely. I personally do better if the bar of entry is as low as possible, so I didn't find a routine for almost a year, I would just go in, find a free machine that looked like I could maybe figure out how to do it, and do some reps. Don't be shy about walking around the gym with a piece of paper. There's also tons of basic routines to be found online. ![]() Even if they don't, I think shelling out for one is worth it if you're the sort of person who takes their lack of knowledge about something and turns it into a huge impenetrable box of the infinity of not knowing and puts it in front of the gym door. Solution: Lots of gyms will offer a free or discounted promo session with a trainer. I hope you don't mind if I just throw some options out there, maybe one will help you or somebody else.īlock: Not knowing how to use the equipment or not having a routine. What would make it easier? I had to get over a lot of anxiety to build up a gym routine, so I tried a lot of things. I just meant to agree that jumping in head first aggressively can be overwhelming, and I'm hoping, for me at least, easing into it will be more tolerable. Tomorrow morning will be the 3 week mark, and I'm confident I'll be back to 234, a third of the way over after only a fourth of the planned timeline. I've dropped from 242 to 235 (was 234 yesterday, but rounding says 235 today) over 20 days. The idea though is to add something small every few weeks maybe and to develop the routine slowly instead of jumping in head first and getting sick of it immediately. After the push ups become routine I'll add pull ups or some simple free weight exercises. I'm planning to slowly add more days of push ups until it becomes more routine like calorie counting now is. My arms are sore, so I'll give it another day or two to recover fully before doing more. This week I scratched the surface of adding some resistance exercise by doing some push ups. Doing that for a couple weeks has shed light on my eating habits, so I'm now paying better attention to my daily calorie intake. So I started using the myfitnesspal app, and I logged everything down to 25 calorie servings of animal crackers. I think we all know most of us aren't honest with ourselves about what and how much we consume daily. ![]() I started with something simple: counting calories. This time I've been trying to ease myself into it by making small changes a little bit at a time. I'm back at it trying to lose some weight again though. That's where I think I've failed in the past trying to make an overnight change and expecting it to last.

I get the impression there was somebody in the office, like an Austin Walker, who pressed really hard to get people excited over this game. You can always do better, but how hard are you willing to try and find your potential. In this case, Devil Daggers relies on your competitive nature to extend the playtime while giving people the right amount of weapons, enemies, and difficulty. If it was more complex then the difficulty could end up too high, if they added a campaign to complete it would be an entirely different game and I don't think it would be any fun. In the specific case of Devil Daggers I think adding more in almost any way would have made the experience worse. It's also - as you mentioned briefly - important to not carry on too long without introducing something new, or end too soon before you can experience things to their fullest and walk away happy with the experience. This only occurs once you have had your fill however, once you feel as though there is nothing else to gain from continuing to play the game, this is why endings are so nice when they're not terrible and wrap things up nicely. if a game has fully explored its possibility space, i honestly am not left wanting more. Part of my problem is that i actually disagree with what you're saying. The hiring patterns over at RPS are a bit incestuous, where they only bring in people who already share the same tastes and viewpoints as themselves, instead of bringing in new blood with different viewpoints.Įdit: Look at all the people downvoting me because they can't refute my argument. The staff is trying to make some sort of statement by rewarding a relatively niche and unknown indie game. Somebody in the staff as an inordinate amount of pull in these things, making most other voices largely irrelevant. The only real way for it to happen is one of three ways: But a game that appeals to a very narrow subset of people and isn't culturally relevant and hasn't affected the industry in any way should, by the very nature of niche cult games, not end up being listed on major gaming outlets as GOTY.Īnd when I say "by the very nature of niche cult games," I mean that because its appeal should be to a very small subset of gamers, the odds that the majority of people at a single journalistic outlet would name it their personal GOTY is astronomical. Not to trash the game, I'm sure it's fun for what it does. I would expect that a niche cult game would get a mention in such a setting, not plastered on their front page as GOTY. But we're also not talking about a singular person's favorite game of the year, we're talking about a gaming journalism site full of professionals who aggregated their opinions into the discussion.
![]() When I reached out to genesis they say the seals are entirely up to the customer to maintain, and recommend servicing them every 3 months, they are not standing behind the product at all, That is absolutely ridiculous for a 2 year old rv trailer to have manufacturer seals fail as bad as they did. The trailer is severely damaged, and possibly totaled as the extent of the damage require the entire trailer to be opened up. This lead to water, snow, ice making its way down into the walls of the trailer and it pulling apart at the seams. Over the winter the large roof seals completely failed, large enough for my hand to completely fit in the crack where the seal was along the roof line. Purchased a slightly used 2020 genesis supreme toy hauler for 35k in the spring of 2022. I will be happy to upload receipts etc if this would get anywhere.

NOW the stereo is on 100% volume all the time and even though the volume numbers go down on the receiver the volume doesnt. I picked it up today with the fridge not working until they can get the part. It took almost a month to get Dometic to agree the fridge cooling unit is bad and now it will be another month before i can get the RV back to repair it. The fridge didn't work on my next trip 2 weeks later. They charges me $340 because they said i tampered with the stereo and because i tried to replace the thermister myself. The stereo wasn't working right again so they "fixed" it and now the outside speakers sound blown again. They had the RV for over a month and replaced the thermister, a $10 part that took a month for some reason. When I got home I returned the RV to the service department (now Camper Land). After 1 trip, the Dometic 4 door fridge stopped getting cold and ruined all my food and had to buy coolers for the rest of the trip. They gave me a new one and I installed it. It turned out the speaker issue was due to a bad receiver. It took 9 phone calls and several threats to get somebody to come get it and bring it back to fix the wiring on it. The day I brought it home the heater didn't work and the outside speakers sounded like they were blown. I bought it new with the idea that I wouldn't have any problems like I would with a used unit.

For example, if you have the eight of spades through the six of spades, you can click and drag them all to a nine of any suit. If all of the cards in a run have the same suit, you can move them all simultaneously. Only if the sequence of cards is of the same suit will this happen. Once you have a complete sequence of cards, they can be moved to the foundation. The game's goal is to make runs of cards from ace to king in the same suit.

For example, "DR 10/Good" will take 10 off every attack unless that attack has the "Good" descriptor attached to it. After the slash (/), the damage type listed is the type of attack that will bypass the DR. The number listed is the amount of damage that an attack is reduced.Green damage numbers indicate that the monster is actually healed by that type of damage you see this occasionally with Summoned Fire Elementals being attacked by fire, for example. Some forms of damage are particularly effective against a monster and this is indicated by purple damage numbers. Full protection is indicated by white zero damage numbers. To see what damage type you need to use, check the Combat Log.
