2015 charlotte hornets roster5/6/2023 The 2018–19 season was the Checkers' best season as an AHL team to date and one of the best in Charlotte's hockey history. The Checkers made 95 shots against Lehigh Valley goalie Alex Lyon. A 1–1 tie was broken by a Phantoms' goal at 6:48 of the fifth overtime period, more than six hours after the game began. In Charlotte on May 9 and 10, 2018, in game four of the second round of the Calder Cup playoffs, the Checkers and the Lehigh Valley Phantoms played the longest game in the history of the American Hockey League. Panoramic view of Bojangles' Coliseum for Game 2 of the 2019 Calder Cup Finals, against the Chicago Wolves. It seated 14,100 people, but over 4,000 seats had obstructed views. While Time Warner Cable Arena had been one of the largest arenas in the AHL, it left much to be desired as a hockey venue. Additionally, having a dedicated arena allowed for "greater control over every aspect of our business, including scheduling, amenities, game presentation and sponsorship inventory." To make sure the Coliseum was up to AHL standards, the Charlotte City Council arranged to provide $16 million to fund renovations. As Kahn detailed, the move would reconnect with said team legacy. In late 2014, the Checkers announced they would return in the following season to the Bojangles' Coliseum, the home of the previous Checkers teams until 2005. On April 11, 2015, the attendance record was broken a third time as 13,219 fans watched the last Checkers game at Time Warner Cable Arena, a 2–0 loss to the Rockford IceHogs. Almost a year later, on February 25, 2012, the attendance record was broken yet again as 13,102 fans watched the Checkers fall to the Oklahoma City Barons, 3–2. On February 26, 2011, the attendance record was broken as 12,933 fans watched the Checkers defeat the Connecticut Whale 1–0. The AHL Checkers' first home game was Octoat the Time Warner Cable Arena in front of 12,512 spectators, which set an attendance record for a hockey game in Charlotte. The Checkers inherited the River Rats' affiliation with the Carolina Hurricanes, in keeping with a recent trend to have NHL teams' top affiliates geographically close to their parent teams in order to ease movement between the AHL and the NHL. The Checkers are the second North Carolina-based team to play at the highest level of minor-league hockey, following the Carolina Monarchs, who played in Greensboro from 1995 to 1997. The new ownership relocated the team to Charlotte for the 2010–11 season, renaming the franchise the "Charlotte Checkers", and relinquished the ECHL franchise to the league. They then became the Albany River Rats from 1993 to 2010, until the River Rats were sold to MAK Hockey, LLC, led by Charlotte beer distributor Michael Kahn, owner of the ECHL Checkers. The franchise was originally based in Troy, New York, as the Capital District Islanders from 1990 to 1993. The franchise is one of six teams to replace and share a name with a predecessor franchise from a lower-tier league the others are the Bakersfield Condors, Colorado Eagles, Ontario Reign, Rockford IceHogs, and San Diego Gulls. The original Checkers team played in the city from 1956 to 1977, originally in the Eastern Hockey League and then in the Southern Hockey League. The current organization is the third team by this name it succeeded a Checkers franchise that played in the ECHL from 1993 until the end of the 2009–10 ECHL season. The Checkers play their home games at Bojangles' Coliseum. They are members of the Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference in the American Hockey League (AHL), and are the top minor league affiliate of the Florida Panthers of the National Hockey League (NHL). The Charlotte Checkers are a minor-league professional ice hockey team based in Charlotte, North Carolina. For other uses, see Charlotte Checkers (disambiguation).

Fission uranium 235 sr905/6/2023 It’s the Cs and Sr that makes nuclear waste “hot”. This is why the NRC’s recent waste confidence ruling is so important. Eventually, it can be burned in GenIV fast reactors to produce over ten times the energy obtained from the first round of burning, or it can be disposed of permanently in a deep geologic repository.Įither way, cooler is easier and safer. The fuel can be recycled to make new fuel, or it can be set aside in dry-cask storage for 90 years or more as the waste becomes much cooler. The fuel is not spent, only 5% of the fuel is actually used. Along with some other age issues, the chain reaction then fizzles out, all neutrons stop, and the fuel needs to be replaced. In fact, after only two years, so much Pu has formed in the fuel that it’s producing as much energy as the original U-235, but is being burned up just as fast.Īfter about five years, the fission products from both U and Pu build up to the point where they scarf up so many neutrons that they poison the reaction. Pu-239 is also a fissile element, even more so than U-235, and can split to produce additional energy. Similar parallel formation mechanisms exist for the other actinide elements but Pu-239 is the main product of these reactions. When U-238 captures the neutron, it becomes U-239 which is also unstable (but not fissile), throwing off some beta particles (the nucleus’ equivalent of an electron, essentially turning neutrons into protons), and becomes plutonium-239 (Pu-239). Because Sr-90 and Cs-137 produce beta and gamma radiation, this makes the waste containing them radioactive enough to require shielding for about 200 years.Īfter coming out of the reactor, spent fuel is placed in pools of water for five years as all of the short-lived nuclides decay away so just Cs and Sr are left, and the fuel cools off sufficiently to be put in dry cement casks for 90 years or more as the Cs and Sr decays through a few half-lives and gets much cooler.īecause of neutron capture, shown in the figure above, other elements produced during the nuclear reactions include the heavy actinide elements, the last row in the periodic table - plutonium, americium, neptunium, and so on. A rule of thumb is it takes seven half-lives for a radioactive element to decay away to background. They only make up about 6% of the fission products, but they are what make the waste hot. While there some long-lived fission products like Tc-99 and I-129, the two longest-lived elements that are really "hot" are strontium-90 (Sr-90) and cesium-137 (Cs-137) each with a half-life of about 30 years. Most of the elements produced are non-radioactive or not very radioactive, or have a short enough half-life that they decay away in days or months, some in seconds. The fragments produced when U-235 splits are new lighter elements, the fission products. That furnace turns water into steam, that turns a turbine and produces electricity just like any coal or gas-fired power plant. The reaction is easily controlled, it cannot explode like a bomb, and the reactor just becomes a furnace that produces a lot of heat from the released energy. Nuclear fuel used in commercial reactors is only enriched up to 5% U-235 of the total U, so that most of the neutrons released hit the other natural isotope of uranium, U-238 which does not split but captures the neutron and changes into a new element (see figure above). On the other hand, a commercial nuclear reactor is engineered to contain and control this chain reaction. The pressure and heat produced by this uncontrolled chain reaction are extreme and causes a huge explosion plus a momentary blast of neutrons. If the material is all U-235, as in weapons, then these neutrons see only more U-235, and they all split in an uncontrolled chain reaction. This three-for-one split with respect to neutrons means that those three neutrons can then split three other U-235 atoms releasing 9 more neutrons, which can split 9 more U-235 atoms, releasing 27 more neutrons, and so on. Judith Wright, The GeoPolitics of Energy ). Since they’re flying apart at near-light speed, there is an enormous amount of kinetic energy released. It is the speed at which the two fission pieces are moving away from each other. However, the real energy released is not radiation. If its nucleus is struck by a neutron at just the right speed, it will split into two unequal parts, called fission products, throwing off about three neutrons and some energy (see figure above). U-235 consists of 92 protons and 143 neutrons, a combination that is slightly unstable.

Terran biting the bullet5/6/2023 In preparation for our grand campaign to purge these lands of what appears to be a ninety feet deep blanket of Ultralisks, a few upgrades to our warmachines might not be terribly amiss. I’m pretty sure most of that red stuff used to be hostile. I wonder how Duke’s doing.Īlright, that does it! Mothers, lend me your sons! These will be properly introduced in Chapter 8, since I messed up the chronology of the updates. Well, probably just those two.Ī forward position has been established, but I think reinforcements are in order. I sympathize with the sentiment, but I do need him for warmaking. Somewhere on this map there is a queen, for whom the only purpose in life is drenching Duke in liquid green love. Needless to say, they pack a huge punch and absorb bullets like a big… bullet sponge. I haven’t been entirely consistent introducing Zerg units, so I’ll just save the formalities for the actual Zerg campaign. That building-sized assembly of mandibles and abject insanity is known as a Zerg Ultralisk. As always, the solution is to build more SCVs.ĭuke, eternally a man of action, leads (pushes) a squad of Marines into the wilderness. I tried building a supply depot in the way, but that just made it worse. There’s a spot a little way north, that some of them feel a mighty need to round, before hitting the fields. Duke dishes out the hurt in Siege mode.įor some reason the SCV pathfinding is kind of wonky in this map. Wise beyond his beard, Raynor withdraws and lets the Zerg aggressors wash against the rock hard base defenses. Raynor, his sharpest eveningwear ruined by crusty Zerg albumen, decides that nearby clocks are in dire need of cleaning. Luckily Marines and bunkers cost only minerals, so I can get with the defensemaking first. Still, with no natural geyser I’ll have to assimilate it eventually. Economics must now take a back seat to some phat recon.Ī single nearby geyser taunts me with the prospect of mining and protecting it, with precious minerals that could have been spent on Engineering Bays. Like some kind of three-jawed dogface, digesting some kind of skinless space-octopus, the Zerg Hive slumbers, awaiting the mighty crush of my boot.Ī quick jump of the ole Command Center makes mineral gathering a breeze. Somewhat in the middle of the map, my objective looms. I’ll need some solid recon, some solid defense and some solid firepower, in that order. If that was really true you’d be sleeping with the space penguins.įor once I am in the barely remembered position, of playing a mission for the first time. You have no idea what you’re talking about! You’re drunker than me! Not, say, the gifted, young, handsome Magistrate that’s responsible for every success this deadbeat terror cell ever had. Oh sure, let’s clear the floor for the invisible riflegirl. Will you two just kiss and get it over with already? But thanks for coming in Duke.Īlso, hey! I’m the guy with the tactics over here! Raynor is just a jerk on a motorcycle, that can’t keep a decent shaving schedule. Don’t make up names for stuff.Įxactly why we’d need tactics to win. Kerrigan engages her cloaking field and trips him, as he tries to leave with a semblance of dignity. The next morning he stumbles into the communal showers and spends forty five extremely hung over seconds trying to turn on the water, before realizing that he is actually in the dining hall, switching the lights on and off. As planets ignite with the saintly blue glow of the Protoss’ righteous fire he drinks to the millions of lives lost, as well as to the dogs on nearby planets who are probably cowering in fear at the explosions. Within the space of 25 minutes, he has arranged the complete alcoholic contents of his minibar in a line on his windowsill. With Confederate war hero, and multiple DUI recipient, Edmund Duke in custody, the Magistrate retires from a long day of widowmaking, as the fleet of Arcturus Mengsk take to the skies.

Soccer spirits anime trailer5/6/2023 Its existential and traumatic themes are universally relatable. Its particular blend of space-based cyberpunk intrigue, Western atmosphere, martial arts action, and noir cool in seinen form is unmatched and widely appealing. Much like Star Wars, its original creator Hideaki Anno has lost control of the franchise’s growth and has since augured the end of anime as we know it, once saying Japan’s animation world is “moving by inertia.” - Austin JonesĮvery debate over whether or not Cowboy Bebop-Shinichir? Watanabe’s science-fiction masterpiece-is the pinnacle of anime is a semantic one. Nevertheless, Evangelion’s influence is palpable with a cultural overlay that can be seen anywhere from Persona 3 to Gurren Lagann, becoming a phenomenon that seems to exceed the show’s literal text. Initially touted as a meaningful deconstruction of the mecha popularized by Gundam and Macross, the franchise later became bloated and rife with superfluous content much like the melodramas-as-merchandise they lampooned years before. But for a show as ingrained in the animation canon as Evangelion, how we discuss it is in constant flux. Hopefully, the remastered anime gets a seventh season soon.- Jarrod Johnson IIīy now, most people have at least a cursory awareness of Neon Genesis Evangelion, whether it be from the overwhelming amount of branded merchandise or the consistent references in popular media. Togashi has struggled with a medical condition for some years, but he claims the manga is far from over. The feats of pure determination you’ll witness in this anime will change you. He’s meticulous about tailoring his characters’ abilities to their personality, but everyone draws their strength from resolve. Togashi emphasizes their youth and inexperience by pitting them against much older, more experienced villains, and introduces powerful mentors that help them evolve. The compelling relationship between these two boys demands emotional investment from you. He makes friends with a young boy from a family of assassins, and their polarized dynamic creates a connection that makes the series inspiring. His determination to see the best in people becomes a marvel of the series, and his dedication to others drives the plot. He’s your typical savior-figure protagonist unique to shonen, but fortunately he keeps the annoying, repetitive mantras to himself. Hunter x Hunter begins with Gon Freecss, as he sets out on a journey to become a Hunter. This anime is filled with whimsical subplots that don’t always end with a major event, but let you know characters in this world were alive before you started watching them. Hunter x Hunter is a rare find among this homogeneous archetype because of its attention to detail and emotional investment. There are countless shonens (and American TV shows, even) that focus on a group of young characters using supernatural abilities and deductive reasoning to problem solve.

National Brown-Bag It Day is celebrated annually on May 25.(That’s why it’s sometimes called a Brown Bag Lunch.) Unlike a meeting in the coffee kitchen, which usually happens by chance, the conversation can also contain some more formal elements: Similar to an exchange in the coffee kitchen, where employees present share professional content while drinking coffee, the Brown Bag Meeting uses lunch time for a meeting. From now on, all sessions will be regular, even if we have special guests. We have also decided to drop the Brown Bag X moniker for special sessions. Because 11 th December is still unwanted, we have decided to leave it out the last session will be on 28 th November. But meetings for two in a simple office are also possible. In the second half of the year, we have lined up another 12 sessions. Postdocs interested in the topic should bring a lunch to eat. Brown bag meetings usually take place in training or conference rooms, so that several participants can participate in the exchange. Brown Bag Lunches (BBL) are workshops, seminars, and information sessions held at lunchtime. The term is mainly used in North America and Australia in Great Britain “Lunchtime Meeting” is more common.Ĭombining the pleasant with the useful – this is how a Brown Bag Meeting could be described. Even though the format of the lunch break meeting is not unknown in German-speaking countries, the term as such is not widespread. The term goes back to the brown paper bags – the so-called Brown Bags – in which the participants transport their lunch.
