![]() By the way, pulling a rickshaw is 6.3 METs.Ģ. Running at 7.0 mph, which allows you to cover one mile in approximately 8.5 minutes, has a MET value of 11.0 (meaning your body uses approximately three times the amount of oxygen used while walking and 11 times more oxygen than sitting at rest). For example, walking at a moderate pace of 2.8-3.2 miles per hour (mph) on a level, firm surface is approximately 3.5 METs, which means that the body is using 3.5 times the amount of oxygen than is required when sitting still at rest. Researchers have assigned MET values for everything from many common types of exercise to relatively obscure activities like pulling a rickshaw. The Compendium of Physical Activity identifies MET values for a wide variety of physical activities. Here are five things to understand about METs and how to use them when designing programs for your clients:ġ. If your clients’ fitness goals include weight loss, understanding which physical activities help burn the most calories can help you determine the most effective activities they should be doing to meet those goals. An activity that is 4 METs requires the body to use approximately four times as much oxygen than when at rest, which means it requires more energy and burns more calories. One MET is an individual’s resting metabolic rate (RMR) and is approximately 3.5 milliliters of oxygen consumed per kilogram bodyweight per minute (mL/kg/min) and represents the amount of oxygen used by the body while at rest (such as what you’re doing right now while reading this article). METs are used to estimate the energy expenditure for many common physical activities. The more oxygen your body uses during physical activity, the more calories you will burn. ![]() The human body expends approximately 5 calories of energy to consume 1 liter of oxygen. Muscle cells use oxygen to help produce the energy to fuel contractions the more oxygen you consume during (and after) exercise, the more calories you will burn. Having a basic understanding of METs and how to use them can help you determine the best physical activities to help your clients achieve their health and fitness goals. Have you ever seen the term MET on a piece of exercise equipment and wondered what it meant? MET stands for metabolic equivalent, which is one way that exercise physiologists estimate how many calories are burned during physical activity. ![]() The aliens have made contact for the first time. “I Was a Sixth Grade Alien” is the first novel in the “I Was a Sixth Grade Alien” series and was released in the year 1999. Some of which include: the “Nina Tanleven” series, the “Magic Shop” series, the “I Was a Sixth Grade Alien” series, the “Shakespeare retellings” series, the “The Unicorn Chronicles” series, the “My Teacher is an Alien” series, the “Space Brat” series, and the “Moongobble and Me” series. Of the many books that Bruce Coville has written, he has written many series. He was the 23rd person to be given the Empire State Award for Excellence in Literature for Young People, and was given to him by the New York Library Association. The couple has three kids two sons (named Orion, born in the year 1970 and Adam, born in the year 1981) and a daughter (named Cara, born in the year 1975). He is married to Katherine Dietz (who is an artist, with whom Coville has worked on some books with), they got married when he was nineteen. While trying to get his first book published, he worked different jobs like: cookware salesman, gravedigger, elementary school teacher of second and fourth graders, and worked on an assembly line. Writing was something that he wanted to do from when he was in the middle of his teens, and by nineteen he never looked back from it. ![]() ![]() He wanted others to feel these things, and from this, gained a love of writing. Bruce read books that made him shiver with terror, but also laugh, too. His love of reading began at a young age, when he would read many comic books, Tom Swift, Nancy Drew books, and the Hardy Boys. He finds that it is getting harder to write with each book he completes, because he does not want to repeat himself and also wants to make the currently thing he is writing to live up to something already completed. He was first published in the year 1977, and since then, has published well over hundred books. He realized that he was bisexual in his teenage years, while growing up, in what he called, farm country. His father was adopted by his aunt and he adopted her last name of Coville.

Scorpio experiences deep emotion and is, thus, linked to the most intimate side of sexuality. This pair needs to be supported by other things in their natal chart to stand any chance of lasting in a long-term and healthy relationship. But, since Gemini is so far from Scorpio’s emotional world, good intimacy between them is unlikely to happen. But, don’t worry, love always finds a way if it’s meant to be – whether for a season or a lifetime.Ī sexual relationship between Gemini and Scorpio is the highest and the deepest connection on this planet. Furthermore, it will take lots of acceptance of differences to make this pair work. This couple needs lots of time to unwind in their own particular ways. ![]() If they fall in love with each other, there is a lot for both of them to learn. The love relation between Scorpio and Gemini is like a “book of shadows” meeting an “open book” where one is a seeker of depth (Scorpio) and the other is a swift surface mover (Gemini). ![]() Gemini’s short attention span, flirting tendency, and inability to keep secrets may raise red flags for the guarded, jealous, and possessive Scorpio. But, in reality, both these Zodiac signs have a manipulative streak to look out for. Gemini usually thinks that Scorpio is a dark character with ulterior motives. Scorpio, on the other hand, is more conservative and possessive about their partner, which makes Gemini feel bogged down with clipped wings. They are more prone to change and keep their mind open to new things. The nature of Gemini is to constantly change, and this is exactly what stops Scorpio from building soul-to-soul intimacy.Īlso, Gemini always stays light on their feet and moves on very easily. Gemini has the habit of changing the topic out of the blue, which could be irritating for Scorpio, who tends to ruminate on one topic very thoroughly. Both of these signs are curious about human behavior, which gives them a lot to talk about. While a Scorpio in love is mesmerizing, emotionally intense, and secretive, a Gemini in love is a charming and social chameleon. When these zodiac signs start understanding each other, they have a very devoted relationship. Now, let’s talk about how compatible Gemini and Scorpio are in love.Īlthough Gemini and Scorpio have some major personality differences and are not the most compatible with each other, they get attracted to each other instantly and often fall in love. Although it seems like a cool match initially, a lot of work needs to be done to build a harmonious and long-lasting relationship. While Gemini is notoriously non-committal, Scorpio’s enigmatic presence inspires persistence. The long-term potential of this relationship is based on maturity, age, and relationship goals. One of them has to be patient and calm to handle the other sign. Their relationship can only work if they keep their ego and dominance aside and try to maintain a balance. They need to put lots of effort into making things work. The relationship between a Gemini and a Scorpio hinges more on a combination of fate and effort rather than harmony and convenience. However, they may face certain obstacles while dating each other in the beginning owing to their different personality traits. They can date, get into a serious relationship, and even enjoy a happy married life. Geminis and Scorpios are very different from each other in expressing themselves, but this does not mean that they cannot enjoy a strong relationship. These differences in personalities can lead to disputes and affect their relationship to a great extent. Geminis, on the other hand, are more intellectual and feel everything at a very superficial level. Scorpios are usually more emotional and have the endurance to dig into the depths of their own emotions. Hence, both of these zodiac signs are incompatible by element and modality. On the other hand, Gemini is a mutable air sign with a reputation of being the high-strung chameleon, which means they are more adaptable, logical, and prone to changing their mind. Scorpio is a fixed water sign, which gives rise to stealthy and highly controlled personalities. Since opposites attract, they can generate exciting chemistry, but the relationship may not be very stable and swing between highs and lows. Owing to this, they might find it challenging to relate to each other. Gemini and Scorpio are five signs apart, which indicates an inconjunct or quincunx i X An astrological term referring to the occurrence of two planets at 150 degrees, and thus, have nothing in common.

They can resemble malpaís, a terrain of volcanic rock. They are characterized by steep slopes, minimal vegetation, lack of a substantial regolith, and high drainage density. Wikipedia describes Badlands as “a type of dry terrain where softer sedimentary rocks and clay-rich soils have been extensively eroded by wind and water. These days though, the term Badlands has more of a geologic description. Next, French-Canadian fur trappers came along and felt similar about the land, calling it “bad lands to travel through” (or “les mauvais terres pour traverse”). This was due to the rough living conditions in the area due to topography, temperatures, and lack of water. Historically the Lakota people were the first to call the area “land bad” (or “mako sica”). Let’s start with… what are the Badlands, and why are they called the Badlands? ![]() It’s a one-stop shop for what you need to know and nothing you don’t! This post serves as a highlight reel composed of everything I learned. We spent a handful of days at the park, and I spent a lot of time gathering information before our arrival to make our trip the best possible.

The 14-inch is equal to the 13-inch at 0.67 inches thick, both of which exceed the XPS 13’s 0.58 inches, and the Spectre x360 14 is also the heaviest at 2.95 pounds versus the 13-inch and XPS 13, both of which weigh 2.8 pounds.Īs I’ve used the Spectre x360 14, I’ve come to appreciate its extra size. It’s the larger chin compared to the XPS 13 that makes the Spectre x360 14 seem so much taller when opened (beyond the sheer height of the 3:2 aspect ratio). Compared to the tiny-bezeled XPS 13 at 11.64 inches wide and 7.82 inches deep, the Spectre x360 14 is again deeper, even though it has its own small bezels. ![]() The display does alter the Spectre x360 14’s dimensions, making it quite a bit deeper (8.67 inches) than the 13-inch model (7.66 inches) but not quite as wide (11.75 inches versus 12.08 inches). ![]() The 3:2 aspect ratio display makes tablet mode much more comfortable, with the panel more closely matching an 8.5- x 11-inch piece of paper - credit Microsoft here, given that its Surface line has enjoyed the same aspect ratio for several generations. The Spectre’s hinge is almost light enough to open with one hand, and it does a commendable job of holding the display firmly in whichever of its four modes - clamshell, tent, media, or tablet - you choose. The XPS 13 does score some points for its dual-zone hinge that can be opened easily with one hand and then holds firmly in place, but the Spectre x360 14 isn’t far behind. There are only a few other laptops in the class that can equal these three. The Spectre x360 14 matches the XPS 13 and the Apple MacBook Pro 13 in this regard, which is high praise. It’s also very well-built, with zero flexing, bending, or twisting anywhere in the lid, chassis, or keyboard deck. Which is better comes down to taste, of course, but I prefer the suave Spectre x360 14. Is a good-looking laptop as well, but it’s a simpler aesthetic that doesn’t seek to attract attention. The Spectre x360 14 is a beautiful laptop without being over the top, whether in the Nightfall Black color with copper accents that I received or the Poseidon Blue or Natural Silver alternatives. HP didn’t mess with the Spectre’s overall design theme - and why would it? The gem-cut aesthetic remains the boldest design you’ll find outside of gaming laptops, although the Spectre is more elegant than ostentatious. ![]() Dell XPS 13: the best tiny laptop?Īsus ZenBook S 13 Flip vs. Microsoft Windows 10 Home (64-bit) 2.7GHz Intel Core i7-7500U 16GB DDR3 SDRAM 1,866MHz 128MB dedicated Intel HD Graphics 620 512GB SSDĪpple MacBook Pro with Touch Bar (15-inch, 2016)Īpple MacOS Sierra 10.12.1 2.Why the latest ThinkPad X1 Yoga Gen 8 isn’t worth the upgrade Microsoft Windows 10 Home (64-bit) 2.3GHz Intel Core i5-6200U 8GB DDR3 SDRAM 1,600MHz 128MB (dedicated) Intel HD Graphics 520 256GB SSD Microsoft Windosws 10 Pro (64-bit) 2.6GHz Intel Core i7-6600U 16GB DDR4 1,866MHz 1GB Nvidia GeForce GPU 512GB SSD Microsoft Windows 10 Home (64-bit) 2.6GHz Intel Core i7-6700HQ 8GB DDR4 SDRAM 2,133MHz 6GB Nvidia GeForce GTX 970 256GB SSD Microsoft Windows 10 Home (64-bit) 2.5GHz Intel Core i7-6500U 16GB DDR4 SDRAM 2,133MHz 2GB Nvidia GeForce 940MX 128GB SSD + 1TB HDD ![]() Microsoft Windows 10 Home (64-bit) 2.7GHz Intel Core i7-7500U 16GB DDR4 SDRAM 2,400MHz 2GB Nvidia GeForce 940MX 512GB SSD You can find cheaper convertibles, but given the Spectre X360 15's 4K display, it's quite aggressively priced against models with similar configurations but only QHD-resolution (or less) screens. In practice, it's fine for the typical a-little-bit-of-everything type of use it's intended for. It incorporates a dual-core version of the i7, and if you look at the charts you can see where that lags behind the quad-core versions in the Razer Blade 14 and MacBook Pro. It's faster than the 2016 model we tested - but that one had a lower speed class of processor and graphics card. While HP goes all out for the visible aspects of the system, it keeps the price low by equipping it with components that deliver decent but not earthshaking performance. You need to keep that in mind when using it as a tablet, since the keyboard section is the part you hold or rest on your lap. Not burning, but noticeable around the hinges and on the wrist-rests. It vents out the sides, though I never felt a hot desert wind come out of them and it remained quiet, the keyboard section did run hot under intensive use. ![]() Sure, it stacks, but unless you've piled on the backup mags or have some brainstalks active, you'll only get a few of those low dps stacks on before they start to disappear. All of Loader’s most important moves have a 1.0 proc coefficient, so she works decently well for proc chains, though do note that stacking ATG is kinda pointless because an ATG that deals 6000% and an ATG that deals 12000% aren’t all that different, they’ll probably one-shot whatever the target is regardless.Īlso if I understand correctly, Loader has a mechanic where her charged punch deals more damage the faster she’s going (not just the default one like the description implies), so speed=damage.īasically, you can’t go wrong with the items you get on Loader, except for flat effects on hit (like Tritip Dagger is really bad on Loader) or items that are downright not as good as they should be (like Red Whip or Lepton Daisy).Originally posted by silver vampire:i use blight and that isnt % based damage so if you are not guarenteed guillotines aka using artifacts that let you choose items i would not use the poison esp if you are playing with another acrid as poison don't stack only blight does so only one person needs poison.if not playing with other acrids you will want to make sure to have anything that causes fatal dmg after you hit id try getting the sticky bombs too since they also help like tri tip. She synergizes with the single-heavy-hit items (Crowbar, Kjaro’s Band, Runald’s Band), as well as the melee items (Focus Crystal, Headstompers, Frost Relic, Hellfire, etc). ![]() Second, that doesn’t mean she doesn’t have some great synergies. So if you get to a point where you’re good with her, you can get garbage items with no synergy and do just fine. The first thing to realize about Loader is that she’s so good, people have beaten Monsoon with no items with her. Also hellfire tincture, since that item is basically easy mode for the first loop. It blocks projectiles, gets you out of cc, and most importantly by far it resets the cd of your bands (since your band cooldown counts as a debuff). ![]() Also the dream is a bunch of fuel cells and gestures of the drowned to spam Blast Shower. But I still think you're sacrificing little damage for a lot of safety to just swing away and let your slugs heal you up.įor that matter I'd say she synergizes well with (at least not scrapping) slugs, since she can get out of combat and back in super quickly, and she could really use the heal. I think there's a world where you use your primary to stay alive, since it's got the innate barrier on hit, and Loader can't really utilize seeds/scythe to heal lategame. It's just better, safer, and more fun to swing around for the next punch. But I'd venture to say that her primary is the least used primary in the game. She has her special to clear swarms of wisps and stuff, and grapple to help her fly around and hit things like a train. For whites, certainly ruby crystals and crit, along with mobility. ATGs, ukeleles, clovers and crit are still pretty good on her though, since they amplify your damage regardless of how you deal it. So she doesn't really care about bleed, attack speed, or stuff like seeds/scythe. However Loader packs it all in her charged gauntlet. Most survivors do sustained dps (captain, huntress, commando). ![]() They call it the "1shot build." The only other 1-item build that comes close is engi with bungus. Loader synergizes extremely well with bands. ![]() ![]() Chapter 8 describes the surface flow system, flow in horizontal pipes, and flow in horizontal wells. Chapter 7 covers the flow of fluids to the surface. Chapter 6 deals with the condition of the near-wellbore zone, such as damage, perforations, and gravel packing. Chapter 5 deals with complex well architecture such as horizontal and multilateral wells, reflecting the enormous growth of this area of production engineering since the first edition of the book. Chapters 2–4 present the inflow performance for oil, two-phase, and gas reservoirs. This textbook offers a structured approach toward the goal defined above. This textbook is aimed at providing the information a production engineer needs to perform these tasks of well performance evaluation and enhancement. Remedial steps can range from well stimulation procedures such as hydraulic fracturing that enhance flow in the reservoir to the resizing of surface flow lines to increase productivity. With diagnostic information in hand, the production engineer can then focus on the part or parts of the flow system that may be optimized to enhance productivity. The production engineer has three major tools for well performance evaluation: (1) the measurement of (or sometimes, simply the understanding of) the rate-versus-pressure drop relationships for the flow paths from the reservoir to the separator (2) well testing, which evaluates the reservoir potential for flow and, through measurement of the skin effect, provides information about flow restrictions in the near-wellbore environmental and (3) production logging measurements or measurements of pressure, temperature, or other properties by permanently installed downhole instruments, which can describe the distribution of flow into the wellbore, as well as diagnose other completion-related problems. In summary, well performance evaluation and enhancement are the primary charges of the production engineer. Improving well deliverability by optimizing the flow system from the bottomhole location to the surface production facility is a major role of the production engineer. The VFP change in Figure 1-7 shows that the flowing bottomhole pressure may be lowered by minimizing the pressure losses between the bottomhole and the separation facility (by, for example, removing unnecessary restrictions, optimizing tubing size, etc.), or by implementing or improving artificial lift procedures. While the IPR remains the same, reduction of the flowing bottomhole pressure would increase the pressure gradient ( p – p wf) and the flow rate, q, must increase accordingly. Increasing the drawdown ( p – p wf) by lowering p wf is the other option available to the production engineer to increase well deliverability. In reservoirs with pressure drawdown-related problems (fines production, water or gas coning), increasing the productivity can allow lower drawdown with economically attractive production rates, as can be easily surmised by Equation ( 1-6). Finally, more favorable well geometry such as horizontal or complex wells can result in much higher values of J D. Thus, stimulation can improve the productivity index. A negative skin effect can be imposed if a successful hydraulic fracture is created. For example, the skin effect can be reduced or eliminated through matrix stimulation if it is caused by damage or can be otherwise remedied if it is caused by mechanical means. The concept of the dimensionless productivity index combines flow geometry and skin effects, and can be calculated for any well by measuring flow rate and pressure (reservoir and flowing bottomhole) and some other basic but important reservoir and fluid data.įor a specific reservoir with permeability k, thickness h, and with fluid formation volume factor B and viscosity μ, the only variable on the right-hand side of Equation ( 1-6) that can be engineered is the dimensionless productivity index. The terms steady state, pseudosteady state, and transient will be explained in Chapter 2. |
