![]() First never forget, in physics there are not wonders - the simple lens refracts the gathered light, and so it became also a prism but a prism divides the colours of the spectrum, so this lens will create very disturbing orange and blue, blurry semicircles around the celestial objects (like stars and planets, even Moon), and so you can't set the focus properly, simply because there won't be only one exact focal point of all the divided colours. Today this era became a part of the history, but we have memories of this scope building method, so I can mention some tricks to improve the image of this scopes we call "simple scopes", or "nut-thrasher". This old DIY-community was working as a virtual club in Hungary, when the people were under terror by the communism, and almost nobody had enough money to get normal scopes to observe, but a lot of children and adults wanted to look into Universe instead of their misery. There was an astronomer-teacher guy, Kulin Gyorgy, or simply "Uncle Georgie" for those thousands who got helps and assistance from him to build scopes from cheap and simple parts around the house. NIce work, my parents' generation made scopes like this in my homeland, in Hungary. It's that wonderful black tape that's super easy to tear, doesn't leave marks, and isn't very shiny. ![]() Make sure each length of PVC is a bit greater than the focal length of the lens. The smaller diameter PVC fit nicely inside the larger one, and, with a little finessing, the lenses fit in each. I used a meter of 3" diameter pvc and a half meter of 2" pvc (I think). Make sure the larger diameter one also has larger magnification power. I got one out of a handheld magnifying glass (the smaller in size lens) and from a scientific equipment shop. I encourage anyone interested in building a telescope to check out my process and modify it as they see fit! Anyway, let's get started! What you'll need: 1. Sadly, there were several things that could've been done much better with more time. I ended up getting a good amount of magnification and I can see craters on the moon in an urban area (Washington, DC). I'm actually pretty pleased with my build. Naturally, then, I decided to build a refracting telescope for the creative project in a class I'm taking called "Changing Views of the Universe". As of late, I've become very interested in space, stars, galaxies, and the universe.

When we tested the car with the new CVT, we recorded a wholly average 7.8-second zero-to-60-mph time. Most Malibu models are propelled by a dutiful 163-hp turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine that drives the front wheels through a CVT. Like many mid-size family sedans, the Malibu offers several powertrains. ![]() Blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and rear parking sensors are included in both, while the Confidence II kit adds plus automatic high-beams, lane-keep assist, automated emergency braking, and forward-collision warning. The available Driver Confidence I and Driver Confidence II packages practically buy themselves at $545 and $1095. (The slightly less expensive RS has spicier visuals and nearly the same equipment, so we wouldn't say no to that version, either.) The LT comes standard with the Malibu's 160-hp turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine-the more powerful 2.0-liter engine is reserved for the top-level Premier-as well as 17-inch wheels, LED taillights, an acoustically laminated windshield, remote engine starting, heated front seats, and a power-adjustable driver's seat. We continue to recommend buying the mid-level LT trim, which comes with more standard features than the lowly L and LS yet still runs a reasonable $27,495. The optional hybrid powertrain has been discontinued. Three paint colors available in 2019 are no more, so if you had a strong attachment to or lust for Iridescent Pearl, Pacific Blue, or Sandy Ridge, 2020 just isn't your year. It is a safe, solid choice-but the real Joneses in its class are the Mazda 6 and the Honda Accord.Īlmost nothing! The Malibu received a minor visual update for 2019, so the 2020 Malibu carries over to this year with only a few new colors (Stone Gray and Black Cherry) and new wheels for the RS and Premier trims. The two turbocharged four-cylinder engine options are overshadowed by the excellently tuned suspension, which delivers a comfortable ride and secure handling. Beneath its sleek exterior hides a fairly ho-hum-quality (if attractive) interior and hardware that gets the job done without overachievement. Instead, like the term "The Joneses," Chevy's four-door is fairly generic. ![]() ![]() Think of the 2020 Chevrolet Malibu as The Joneses of the mid-size sedan segment, and not because everyone is trying to keep up. ![]() Instead, it will search through all files in the *current* directory! ![]() Now, if we want to find out which files that contain a specific search term, in the current directory and all subdirectories, the intuitive approach would be to run the following command: grep -r "The lecture was then essentially" *.ufoĭon’t you agree? However, grep will not provide the desired response if you run this command! For my own amusement, I used the ufo archives from, located at. Beforehand, I knew to a certain degree what the result would be, but grep was unable to find what I was looking for! Let me illustrate by example:įor this test we will use a random set of text files found on the internet. I got really surprised the other day when I had to do a recursive search on files with a specific suffix, like *.txt. Grep will recurse through the current directory and all subdirectories for instances of “search term”. If you however need to search through the current folder (which also happens to contain multiple subfolders), and you want to do a recursive search through all the subfolders, you would on a Linux system normally write the following: grep -r "search term" *Īnd you will then get the desired response. This will search through all files in the current folder and report where instances of “search term” are found. In its simplest form, you normally run: grep "search term" * It’s easy to learn, and it has multiple additional functionaltity (like regular expression search patterns) for finding that particular needle in the haystack you are looking for. If all else fails, or I am unable to install Cygwin for some reason, I turn to the the built-in Windows command line tools find and findstr for emergencies. ![]() If I happen to be on a Windows computer, I normally install Cygwin that allows me to use the same tool. Whenever I need to search through multiple files after a specific term, I usually turn to GNU grep. I wish Ninja would make pots and pans with this coating. The non-stick ceramic coating is simply amazing. When the lid has closed, the grill and the timer automatically resume.Ĭleaning the Ninja Foodi Grill is extremely easy. The 6-quart pot is coated with the same non-stick ceramic coating as the other items.Īnother nice feature is that if you open the lid while you’re cooking, the grill and the timer will pause. The non-stick surface worked so well that you could just wipe it clean, nothing stuck to it. In fact, I prepared three 25 minute batches, one after the other. I also cooked some chicken legs in the crisper basket. It cooked slightly quicker than in the oven. Next, the 4-quart crisper basket (also designed to sit in the cooking pot while in use) was put to the test cooking some tater-tots. Grill marks, just the right amount of char, and it even cooks more evenly than my outdoor grill – and I don’t have to baby-sit the temperature. I was seriously impressed with the ability of the grill actually to cook like an outdoor grill. The Ninja grill though, it’s simply amazing. Those things seem to dry out the meat faster than they cook it. ![]() I’ve previously used those indoor “grills” that you place over your stove burner, and all they did was cook like a pan. The grill grate also features vent holes and a spiral ridge design to help with drainage and airflow. This provides an area for drippings to collect so that the food does not lie in them while cooking. The grill grate is designed to sit in the cooking pot while in use. When the preheating is done, the display will show “Add Food.” Simply add your food and close the lid. Once pressing start, the grill will preheat. ![]() For the other modes, you select the mode, then select the time. For the grill mode you choose low, medium, high, or max and then set the time. The operation of the grill is as simple as selecting the mode and the time. The grill mode has 4 heat levels, and the other modes allow you to select the temperature and time. The Ninja Foodi Grill has 5 modes: Grill, Air Crisp, bake, roast, and dehydrate. ![]() Read: Religious Easter Messages Easter Short Bible VersesĮxalted to the right hand of God, he has received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit and has poured out what you now see and hear (NIV) Seeing what was to come, he spoke of the resurrection of the Messiah, that he was notĪbandoned to the realm of the dead, nor did his body see decay.

One such task belongs to Yahya Abdul-Mateen III, who will be playing Black Manta. This way, Black Manta can go through a redemption arc or a full transformation into a cruel villain by feeling torn between two worlds. Black Panther would honestly dispatch Black Manta fairly easy also, so he isnt a problem for them. Movies 2 Murder Most Foul Aquaman hits theaters later this year with Jason Momoa leading a star-studded cast that brings many of DC’s greatest characters to life. Since the first Aquaman movie tells the timeless story of a couple of brothers fighting for the throne, Aquaman 2 can focus on a more modern plot based on the conflict between nature and technology. ![]() in the comics is King Shark, who will be featured as one of the anti-heroes in James Gunn's upcoming The Suicide Squad.īlack Manta's alliance with N.E.M.O. could also give the sequel a solid thematic weight.

The actor plays David Kane/Black Manta in the sequel, reprising his role from the first movie, which. also provides Black Manta with the perfect opportunity to prove how skilled he has become since his defeat in 2018's Aquaman, as he can follow the comic book storyline and assassinate N.E.M.O.'s leader, The Fisher King, before taking his place. Yahya Abdul-Mateen II is all geared up for the release of Aquaman and The Lost Kingdom. Stephen Shin (Randall Park) could ever wish for. This organization could give the vengeful villain more resources than the humble Dr. N.E.M.O.'s link with contraband tech fits perfectly with Black Manta's own work method. Later this year, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom will give Black Manta a chance to make good on that vow of vengeance. |
