The stunt, however, was short-lived when Gerulaitis and Riggs lost a doubles match against Martina Navratilova and Pam Shriver. ![]() In 1985, Gerulaitis teamed with Bobby Riggs to launch a challenge to female players after the famous Battle of the Sexes. Gerulaitis was known for his exceptionally quick hands at the net and his outstanding court coverage. His career-high singles ranking was world No. In February 1981, Gerulaitis won the star-laden Toronto Indoor invitational tournament, defeating John McEnroe in the final after having defeated Jimmy Connors in the semifinal.ĭuring his career, Gerulaitis won 25 top-level singles titles and eight doubles titles. Gerulaitis reached his third Grand Slam singles final in 1980, when he lost in the final of the French Open to Björn Borg in straight sets. He won two singles "rubbers" in the final, as the US beat Italy 5–0. He was a member of the United States team which won the Davis Cup in 1979. In 1979, Gerulaitis lost in the men's singles finals at the US Open to fellow New Yorker, John McEnroe, in straight sets. By 1978, he was the third-ranked men's singles player in the world. In 1978, Gerulaitis won the year-end championship WCT Finals for the World Championship Tennis tour, beating Eddie Dibbs 6–3, 6–2, 6–1. In 1977, Gerulaitis won the most significant title of his career at the Australian Open, when he defeated John Lloyd in the men's singles final in five sets. In 1977 he lost a Wimbledon semifinal to his close friend and practice partner, Björn Borg, 6–4, 3–6, 6–3, 3–6, 8–6, a match later considered one of the greatest of the decade. He was a singles semifinalist at Wimbledon in both 19. He also won the men's doubles title at Wimbledon in 1975. ![]() Gerulaitis was coached by Fred Stolle from 1977 until 1983. He also played for the league's Indiana Loves franchise in 1977. Gerulaitis played for the Triangles from 1974 until 1976. Gerulaitis led the Pittsburgh Triangles to the World TeamTennis championship title at Pittsburgh's Civic Arena in 1975. Both siblings' native language was Lithuanian. His younger sister Ruta was also a professional tennis player. Gerulaitis was nicknamed "The Lithuanian Lion". He attended Columbia College of Columbia University with the class of 1975 for one year before dropping out to pursue tennis full-time. He attended Archbishop Molloy High School in Queens, graduating in 1971. Gerulaitis was born on July 26, 1954, in Brooklyn, New York, to Lithuanian immigrant parents, and grew up in Howard Beach, Queens. (Gerulaitis won the tournament that was held in December, while Roscoe Tanner won the earlier January tournament.) He won two Italian Open titles, in 19, and the WCT Finals in Dallas in 1978. He won the men's singles title at one of the two Australian Open tournaments held in 1977. In 1975, he won the men's doubles title at Wimbledon, partnering with Sandy Mayer.

![]() In the story, these creatures are composed not only of the mythological characters but also animals, insects and even human beings like the legendary Mariang Makiling, Mariang Sinukuan, Mariang Condende and even the fat but beautiful "her face is like the moon" Dona Geronima. The magic circle is that way going to the deepest part of the tree where the creatures parade one-by-one going to the party. The boy, the oldest boy in town, accidentally discovers it when his dog Galis bumps to the tree while running away (from the boy) with the blouse of a snooty senyora that is being dried for ironing by the boy's mother, a laundrywoman. They are getting married in the underworld that can be accessed via an old tree. In this story, it is the wedding of the tikbalang, the Philippine mythological creature that is half-human, half-beast.

And as an adult, it enthralled me as well -reminding me of how much fun it is to tell stories, to imagine, and to feel compassion for creatures big and small… whether from this world or others.more This is a beautiful piece of literature for children that must be treasured and shared. Who doesn't like a magical story with a very timely message to save the earth? Who doesn't like a story that relives the youthful days of humanity's enchantment with the spirit and elemental world? What the book accomplishes is, in a sense - magical. “The Magic Circle” is a timely reminder of the urgency of caring for the environment. It is a short story about one’s purpose in life, the role that we all play in contributing to the destruction of the environment, and how things die because we have forgotten. It was a wedding that turned into a meeting and then a funeral, where humans happen to be just accessories: topics for conversation, and the reasons for suffering. In the magic circle of Philippine mythological creatures, he was merely an observer to an important gathering. The story starts with a poor boy named Jepoy, but the story isn’t about him at all. We need more of these modern-day adaptations of traditional folklore. ![]() Philippine folklore is a treasure trove of strange and fascinating mythical creatures that are nearly forgotten by modernity - and I am grateful to Gilda Cordero Fernando for showing what we can do with traditional mythology. Yes, I know they are not real! It’s their extinction from the Filipino culture that concerns me. A tikbalang, by the way, is a tall, humanoid creature with the head and hooves of a horse. I guess there has been barely any tikbalang weddings happening, which must be why their population is dwindling. This phrase doesn’t occur frequently anymore. “The Magic Circle” opens with this Filipino belief about sun showers - that is, when the sun is out and rain is falling at the same time, a tikbalang wedding is going on. ![]() Yes, I know they are not real!

That means a battery that lasted for 5 hours when it was new should last around 4 hours by the time it gets to 1000 cycles. Combined, these 3 make up a complete -100% discharge cycle.Īpple’s latest Mac notebook batteries are designed to maintain about 80% of their original charging capacity after 1000 cycles or 5 years. It can be broken up across a number of charges. That doesn’t necessarily mean going from 100% down to 0% all on one charge. Battery usage is measured in cycles, which represents the number of times it has been fully discharged. It’s all about the age of the battery, how often it is used, and other conditions like temperature. It’s completely normal for notebook batteries to gradually become less effective at holding a charge as time goes on.

Liam enjoyed the game so much that he messaged the other players shortly after, asking if they would like to start a continuing game. īefore Critical Role began, Liam O'Brien and Sam Riegel planned to play Dungeons & Dragons with some friends for Liam's Birthday and share their experience on their podcast.

With the return of an old foe leading a band of cultists as they seek to raise the archlich Vecna to godhood. ![]() Having taken care of the major threat facing Tal'Dorei and quickly making a new acquaintance, Vox Machina sets out to tie up some loose ends, including the final leg of Keyleth's Aramenté and the ever-present threat of Hotis' return. As Thordak swells with madness and power from his position within Emon, time is running out until the final confrontation with the Cinder King. Although the party does not trust her, the dragon's strength and knowledge would be a great asset to them. One member of the Chroma Conclave, Raishan, proposes an alliance with Vox Machina to take down the leader, Thordak. After saving whomever they can and resettling them in Whitestone, the members of Vox Machina rally their allies to kill the dragons and take back their home and gather the power of the Vestiges of the Divergence. Now they need to clear their names, but the cost might be Percy's soul.Īs Sovereign Uriel Tal'Dorei II announces his abdication, four dragons calling themselves the Chroma Conclave attack the city of Emon. Following his lead, Vox Machina is accused of destructive behavior and kicked off the Tal'Dorei Council. Knowing that they were responsible for the deaths of his family, Percy decides it's time to achieve his vengeance. After completing their quest, trouble with the law in Vasselheim splits the party into two separate groups as they attempt to make amends, and during their stay, they encounter new friends, new enemies, and new revelations before eventually returning home. Lady Allura asks Vox Machina to find her friend, Lady Kima, who disappeared into the mines of Kraghammer upon learning of a great evil resting beneath it during a vision quest. ![]() ![]() ![]() In this thumbnail description it sounds much like space fighters dogfighting, though the scale of the thing was such that battles would unfold over hours or days, even weeks. There was a serious question in my mind whether a defensive laser armament was even worth carrying - the extra mass of a laser battery would mean reduced missile firepower, more sluggish performance, or both. Lasers, in my vision, were purely secondary and defensive, intended for last ditch defense against incomings. The second worst position a ship can be in is to make a burn that accidentally carries it out of the fight at the point of decision, allowing the enemy to defeat its consorts in detail. The worst position a ship can be in is dynamically surrounded, so that a burn that carries it away from one enemy's missile envelope takes it right into another's. Ships maneuver like (3-D, vector) polo ponies to line up shots at opponents while avoiding the enemy's shots. ![]() Multi-ship tactics also look potentially complex - and therefore interesting. It can (at least in principle) maneuver to evade an enemy's missile, while the more sluggish enemy ship cannot quite evade its own missile. My starting point was the observation that if two ships are armed with similar-performance missiles, the more maneuverable ship has a crucial advantage. Thus my picture of kinetic space warfare was kinetic in style as well as in weaponry. The people who fight wars are not concerned to make them interesting that is only of concern to people inventing them in order to write about them. The third point is most shamelessly meta. (Extensive use of laser propulsion does change this equation.) As a point of comparison, in the 19th century military technology tended to adopt new civil technologies, rather than being a primary driving force in itself. Long range lasers probably have more limited and mainly military applications. The second hints at future history.Īny spacefaring society on a grand enough scale to have grand space battles has put generations or centuries of major effort into its overall space technology, whether its past has been peaceful or warlike. The first is a general consequence of space speeds. You may note that these three justifications are ranked by increasing meta-ness. I bring kinetics up again because they were long my weapon of preference for space warfare, for at least three distinct reasons, distinct in addressing different aspects of the overall problem:ġ - Missiles in space have effectively unlimited range, more than even Ravening Beams of Death.Ģ - If you have the space technology to put large numbers of people in space, you pretty definitionally have the capability to throw lots of luggage, and throw it fast.ģ - There is reasonable scope for tactical maneuver in kinetics-dominant space combat, something that (it seems to me) is much harder to get in laser combat. ![]() (Though the specific form of killer bus I described in the second post is a bad idea.) ![]() #Space warfare xviii rocketpunk manifesto series#To regular readers of this blog it is no news in particular I discussed kinetics in two segments of this series of posts. This is the basis for kinetic weapons in space warfare. (Someone in the back raises their hand to ask, '100 km/s relative to what?' For purpose of this discussion the answer is 'relative to whatever it hits.' And you should have figured that out on your own.) In space the bang will be soundless, but it will still hurt. At 100 kilometers per second, any object - be it a depleted-uranium slug, a carton of skim milk, or a throw pillow - packs kinetic energy equal to 5 gigajoules per kg, equivalent to 1195 kg of TNT, rather more than a ton of bang. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The Quest 2 will be one of the best VR headsets people for most people.

If you can look past those issues, this is a fantastic VR headset. You'll also need a space where you can be near a powerful desktop or laptop, because – this isn't a standalone headset like others in this list. During our testing, we found setting it up can be tricky, updates can cause connection issues and there are often errors. #Best vr headset for xbox one upgradeIt’s a significant upgrade to the HTC Vive, and runs much smoother than the Vive Pro, a powerful VR headset that really struggled to deliver on the promise of high-end, room-scale VR. However, it isn't without its snags. We found it has a crisp display that runs well even with older GPUs, a wider field of view, a higher refresh rate, and Valve’s 'knuckle' controllers, which can track the movement of every finger. The Valve Index is an excellent VR headset that represents a next-gen system compared to its predecessors. ![]() ![]()

However, it only seems to capture traffic while it's running, and it is a desktop app. The suggestion on this site from searching around is to use ProcessMonitor to monitor CPU. I suspect some other process kicked in and hammered the CPU or similar. When it was last ran, something happened for 5 minutes where its performance dropped dramatically and caused a few timeouts, in the middle of the night.
