![]() In the new exhibit, there will be 65 bat rays, plus 10 guitar fish and more than 400 other fish. While SeaWorld’s announcement focuses on the coaster, the park also is planning to remake its existing Forbidden Reef exhibit where some 50 bat rays are on view in the touch pool. ![]() However, water effects will be incorporated into the ride to simulate a ray spraying water. Once the coaster is completed, riders, seated two across on a 20-seat train shaped like a manta, will navigate more than a dozen twists and turns but never touch water or be splashed by it. So far, no opposition has surfaced, the commission said. The California Coastal Commission is scheduled to review the project on Friday, and its staff has recommended approval. Reilly would not say how much the attraction will cost the park, but he acknowledged it is in the tens of millions of dollars.īecause of a 30-foot height limitation that governs most of the coast of San Diego, the ride will not exceed 30 feet, but the park will excavate 24 feet in order to create a 54-foot drop, as well as a water feature that the coaster will pass over. ![]() Certainly this concept has been in development for years.” “We’re constantly working to energize the park and bring new guests here, and a great deal of research goes into these decisions. ![]() “The Orlando Manta ride has been tremendously successful and has been a part of the inspiration for the Manta ride here in San Diego,” said SeaWorld San Diego President John Reilly. A new roller coaster meant to mimic the sensation of a manta ray gliding through the water - complete with a 54-foot plunge - will debut in May of next year at SeaWorld San Diego, the theme park is announcing today.ĭescribed as the park’s first “pure” roller coaster, the Manta ride was inspired by a similar attraction at the Orlando park but will have its own unique features, including a launch station where huge images of manta rays will be visible on a giant, 270-degree screen via a state-of-the-art projection system.Īlthough the San Diego park already has one coaster ride, Journey to Atlantis, SeaWorld officials describe it more as a water ride with a drop element than a conventional roller coaster.Ĭonstruction on the attraction, to be located in the northwest corner of the park just north of Rocky Point Preserve, is expected to get under way within a month. ![]()

For comparison, the Wacom Cintiq 16 retails at $650 / £530 / AU$999, and while it definitely takes the lead in some respects, the Artist 15.6 Pro holds its own for nearly half the price in some regions. ![]() The XPPen Artist 15.6 Pro is available for a pleasingly low $369.99 / £399.99 / AU$599.99, making it one of the best-value drawing tablets available. XPPen Artist 15.6 Pro: Price and availability Regardless, XPPen has set a high bar for itself – and for its price, it’s hitting all of the right marks. However, it falls just shy of professional-grade performance, lacking some of the productivity-improving features that make all the difference to your creative flow. In addition, it’s at an angle awkward enough to give you a crick in your neck over longer drawing sessions.Īll in all, we were impressed by the XPPen Artist 15.6 Pro, and it certainly is the closest we’ve seen to some real competition for Wacom. The lack of a VESA mounting hole is pretty limiting in terms of incorporating the Artist 15.6 Pro into a workspace, and the provided stand is flimsy and feels cheap. Some of the corners cut to bring the price down might hinder more serious artists, too. As such, it doesn’t offer the same fluidity as pen-to-paper and can be a little disruptive overall. At times, there are issues with the stylus, from line jitter and lag to the pressure sensitivity being unresponsive. However, if you’re looking to use it when working towards a deadline, there are some drawbacks. If you’re just using the Artist 15.6 Pro for personal use, you might not even notice some of the minor issues with the tablet. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Gray carpet floods the floors and is as clean as a whistle and only slightly faded, as is the tight gray fuzzy headliner above. Part of the Choo Choo package is the addition of wood burl dressing for the dash as well as the surround for the console mounted shifter, all of which add a distinct touch of class over the standard interior. Nice fade free crushed velour broadcloth with some tuck and roll inserts and smooth maroon vinyl bolsters form up the seating, and a large central armrest can be lifted to create an extra passenger space. Cruise control is noted, and A/C is on board as is an AM/FM/Cassette player is fitting neatly into a square panel. Slipping inside we are greeted with mid 1980's square and rectangle design for the dash, all functioning controls, and nicely set up for ease of operation. Much like showroom, extremely clean surfaces starting with the swing of the doors revealing the door panels utilizing smooth padded vinyl in gray, molded plastic in excellent condition which houses the door pull, power windows, power locks and side view mirror joystick. Nearly new chrome 15-inch Cragar wheels are wrapped in blackwall Cooper Cobra radials from the 12th week of 2022 on all 4 corners. I've always loved this year's El Camino with its in bumper tail lights, and curved rear glass, and this one the bumper on back and that rear window are just pristine. Badging is all near perfect, and even the door handle notes its “Designer Series”. Covering the bed is a snap on black tonneau cover with an added rear spoiler and chrome tie down rails complete the package. The hood has a rear facing scoop, and in the back, the bed on this example is lined with a rubber liner and shows with age appropriate wear. The El Camino SS has aerodynamic-ground effect style rocker fairings but does not have the very rare faux side exhaust vents. In addition to the aerodynamic nose treatment that was the primary styling feature of all El Camino SS's, all vehicles received graphics on the fascia, doors and tailgate, and a small chrome train logo above the glove compartment door. A few spider cracks are seen in the finish on the rocker fairings and there is a very small rust bubble on the lower rear driver's bed side, just in front of the bumper. ***Due to modifications of the emissions control devices installed by the manufacturer, please check your local, state, and federal laws to determine if this vehicle is applicable for use on public highways in your area.***ĭonning the Choo Choo SS appearance package add-on from the dealership, this black beauty sports exacting gaps of straight steel panels and what appears to be the factory application of paint. Oh, I cannot forget to mention a huge binder of paperwork including repair receipts and the sales invoice, order form and clean CarFax that are included with the car. Very well maintained and with tons of upgrades including a rebuilt engine and transmission, new Cragar wheels and an added rear spoiler make for one snappy appearing and running hauler. ![]() The final year for the El Camino and this model is carrying the SS decor package and is one of approximately 861 Choo Choo conversion cars built for the model year. Someone from GM thought that was a good idea, and hence the EL Camino was born, although technically the Ford Ranchero beat them to it, (1957 as opposed to 1959), but hey it's a great story! For consignment, a Choo Choo Custom version of the El Camino right out of 1987. ![]() The concept of a truck-like car came from a farm woman in Australia who wanted a truck to haul hay on the weekdays, and a car she could drive to church on Sunday. In fact, Elliot was so impressed by Bradley's custom El Camino, he insisted that Mattel use it as a model for the first line of Hot Wheels toy cars, (The Fleetside). Rumor has it that Mattel's Elliot Handler, (the 'el' in Mattel), spotted designer Harry Bradley's El Camino in the Mattel HQ parking lot and commented, “Those are some hot wheels,” coining the new name for Mattel's line of toy cars, Hot Wheels. ![]() ![]() ![]() It's amazing how he eerily looks the part with bags under his eyes, a clumsy gait, stooped shoulders and a continuous expression of fatigue while he dives into the depth of an extremely complex character. Al Pacino proves again what an excellent actor he is. The quietness of a cold and gloomy Alaska is both intense and chilling. Then there's the clever use of fog and floating logs which in a way act as pathetic fallacies. It's a dark movie set in constant daylight. In a way, it's the antagonist of the movie that leads to Dormer's mental 'deterioration'. Daylight is used very effectively as a character of its own. Nolan's style of execution is remarkable. ![]() Incidentally, I was watching it very late at night and perhaps that is the best time to watch it. The attention to detail and the emphasis of the visuals that make the viewer experience Dormer's sleep deprived world is stunning. The production design is of very high quality and the cinematography is breathtaking. While it is the complex characters that stand out, the details of the murder case(s) are very well presented and the layered twists add well to the plot. It starts as a who done it, then turns into a how done it to why done it to what are you going to do about it. This isn't merely a 'catch-the-bad-guy' thriller but a character driven psychological drama. Thus, my comment is pretty much just about the movie rather than how it compares to the original. What convinced me to watch this one was the cast that included three super-talented actors and the director Christopher Nolan ('loved his 'Memento'). Otherwise, I would have watched the original film first. I didn't know that 'Insomnia' was based on a Norwegian movie of the same title. ![]() ![]() Ones you filter by either using colors or Lego sets, the last icon on the right called Turn off filter allows you to turn off the filter.

Until relatively recently, they were produced in a configuration much like the one you see here, a design hundreds of years old. These bits were available in various shapes, diameters and lengths. It's meant to be used in a tool called a bit brace (or sometimes, simply, a brace). A time-honored bit for making holes in wood is the auger bit. Woodworkers have been making holes since people began working with wood. ![]() When sharp, the bit cuts a consistently smooth and round hole in hardwoods and softwoods. The traditional auger bit has a pyramid shaped base that is meant to fit into the jaws of a brace. SDS masonry bits have a specialized base formed to permit this easy insertion into the chuck of an SDS rotary hammer. ![]() This tool has a spring-loaded chuck that allows the bit to be inserted, it doesn't have to be tightened. The other form of this bit is designed for use in a specialized power tool called an SDS rotary hammer. Its hex shank prevents the bit from slipping in the drill's chuck. The general hex-shank masonry bit is for use in an ordinary drill driver. But with a well-made masonry bit, that's exactly what you get–a tough bit with an ever tougher carbide tip. The bit itself has to be able to withstand bending or snapping and the carbide has to stay securely attached to it. Or rather, a tough bit with an even tougher tip, preferably a piece of carbide brazed onto the body of the bit. Roy Berendsohn Masonry Bitĭrilling through rock, concrete, concrete block, brick, and mortar requires a tough bit. Whereas the SDS version of the bit (right) is intended for use in a rotary hammer that has the specialized chuck that allows the bit to be inserted. These heavy-duty bits better resist heat and wear when drilling metals, particularly thick pieces of steel, cast iron or stainless steel.Ī general-purpose masonry bit (left) can be used in any sort of drill. Industrial-duty versions of twist drill bits are made from various forms of high-speed steel (such as a cobalt-molybdenum alloy, M42), and these bits may also have a wear-resistant nitride (or other) coating that gives them a black or gold color. There are forms of this drill bit that have a 118-degree tip that are more well suited for drilling wood, but in the last several years, these have become very hard to find (they have been displaced by the next bit shown, the brad point). It’s designed for drilling metal, but it will also drill wood. The most commonly-available form of this drill bit is the type with a 135-degree tip. The debris it produces is transported out of the hole by the helix-shaped channel machined into the side of the bit. ![]() The cone-shaped tip of a twist drill bit cuts with a diagonal shearing action.

The CCD sensor in those generations of camera produced some wonderful colors and output, given their limitations compared to modern-day enthusiast compacts.

The TG-6 is fighting against smartphones and 1" nowadays and is managing to still hold its own and sell. These paper comparisons hide a lot of things and do not forget the reviews are relative to similar equipment at the time and the bar raises continuously. Many reviews were unimpressed by the video performance also. Good stills camera but as I like to occasionally use video I sold it fairly quickly. Olympus have got their act together here so the TG-6 and the XZ-2 for that matter were a great improvement. The video was the worst by far I have ever experienced on any camera and I have had a few. That video score for the XZ-1 seems a bit fanciful. I love the fact, that zooming acrion happens in a water proof chamber in TG-6, still, by thw year 2020, that cam has smilar specs (optic&sensir size combo) of XZ-1.
