![]() ![]() Kai havertz is probably the one player i wouldn’t be placing value on based on his stats from last season. I hope he is, because he can play RB and CM and gives us OPTIONS! But sadly, I don’t see anything reliable. What about Caicedo? I haven’t seen any reliable information that he is still an Arsenal target. What if you’re wrong? I’ll give you a 100% refund of your money. I think the main positions for Rice will be the CM and for Havertz the left half space. And with Champions League football adding more (serious) games to the table, we are going to need options. So, am I contradicting myself? Not really. But I know that only a few weeks ago I thought Rice might come in to play the Xhaka role. ![]() So, my simple answer is that he will play in the CM role that Partey plays now. I want Thomas Partey dropped from the team forever. No, I mean Declan RIGHT FOOTED Rice, where will he play? Look, I’m biased. Depending on the variety, and what I want the final dish to be like, I will sometimes soak it a bit first. What about Rice? I cook mine in an instant pot. They are also better adept at defending (theoretically) with their left foot, so can defend wide left better in one-v-ones. It’s an important part of his attacking and defending plan: left footed players on the left don’t have to pass across their body to play the ball out left – this changes the angle they can receive the ball and can speed up distribution, open up options for their passing. I’m not sure if we have the most lefties of any club but it’s a lot. Kiwior, Gabriel, Xhaka/Havertz, Saka, Ode, and Zinchenko. His first summer as a manager, Arteta bought Pablo Mari and Gabriel, both of them are left footed. You keep mentioning he’s left footed, why? Because it’s a big thing for Arteta. They must have seen something in this player (he’s left footed) to make them want him badly enough to invest huge sums. I mean, they aren’t perfect but Arteta and Edu seem to get things more right than wrong. I dunno where he’s going to play next season, honestly. If we pay him 200k (which is reasonable to expect) and give Chelsea somewhere more than 60m for him, it seems that he’s probably going to be a starter. He’s on 150k and Chelsea want 75m for him. Who cares? He’s a versatile LEFT FOOTED player who can play in the Xhaka role and also on the right and in the center. Where Havertz? My gut says he’s going to replace Xhaka on the left half space (I’m not using the term “#8” anymore because that’s a functionally dead term) but every time I say that I get someone saying “he’s never played there before” (not true) or “he’s coming in to play backup to Jesus as the false nein”. The only thing that I can point to and say is a definite plus in his book is that he’s left footed and Arteta LOVES lefties on the left side of the core. But they usually make up for it by being good at other stuff, like scoring or creating goals. Havertz is also not great at tackling and other defensive metrics, and again, Xhaka was bad at tackling and most forwards aren’t good at that stuff. But then again, so was Xhaka’s, before Arteta played him in the left half space behind the forwards. His scoring, shot creation, and dribbling are very poor. Kai Havertz? More like Why Havertz, AM I RIGHT? Both apps should allow for easy shrugging.Who are Arsenal after? Looks like Kai Havertz and Declan Rice. And the best app like this for Android seems to be Textspansion. On Twitter, Justin Jacoby Smith recommends Auspex, a free utility for Windows that mimics the Mac and iPhone’s system-wide text-replacement function. ( I’m sure there is a Windows fix, but I don’t know what it is. My solution is also only possible on a Mac and/or iPhone. ![]() But then I found a solution, and it saves me having to google “smiley sideways shrug” every time I want to quickly rail at the world’s inherent lack of meaning. That makes it a kaomoji, a Japanese emoticon it also makes it, on Western alphabetical keyboards at least, very hard to type. Unlike better-known emoticons like :) or ), ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ borrows characters from the Japanese syllabary called katakana. I use it at least 10 times a day.įor a long time, however, I used it with some difficulty. ![]() ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ represents nihilism, “bemused resignation,” and “a Zen-like tool to accept the chaos of universe.” It is Sisyphus in unicode. With raised arms and a half-turned smile, it exudes the melancholia, the malaise, the acceptance, and (finally) the embrace of knowing that something’s wrong on the Internet and you can’t do anything about it.Īs Kyle Chayka writes in a new history of the symbol at The Awl, the meaning of the “the shruggie” is always two-, if not three- or four-, fold. In its 11 strokes, the symbol encapsulates what it’s like to be an individual on the Internet. ![]() ![]() V and Rika’s relationship: There was a big corner of the MM fandom that was reluctant to have a romantic V route because of V’s deep love for Rika– how would Cheritz handle giving V and the MC 11 days to bond knowing that V is still recovering from an abusive relationship? Well, good news. It hurts Ray a lot to know that he’s lied to you more than it hurts the MC, depending on your choices but you’re basically torn bc V couldn’t save you from him but he swears that he’ll come back for you and LORD did this kill me. At the very last second of his route, V shows up at Mint Eye to save you. And at the very end of the common route on day four, you start to question Ray– your trust in him starts to waver at this point. Remember when I said he didn’t technically break the fourth wall earlier.? Well, as you go deeper into this route, the MC starts to feel that these characters are so real that it’s not even funny. And then there’s Ray, who gets attached to you a little too quickly here but he’s always caring about your well being. V hopes the best from you and desperately wants you to be someone he can trust, so he starts showing up a lot more because of you, and you can also see that he sort of opens up, it’s very beautiful to see. Mostly because you dropped Rika’s name but still. Through these days, you can see that V is the fastest one to accept you. I just wondered WHY would Cheritz make Ray act this was knowing that we’re supposed to pursue V!! It broke my heart bc I love the both of them. It honestly feels like they’re not the same person, I didn’t even care for Saeran up until this route so I really liked spending a lot of this route with him.Ĭommon Route: Day’s 1-4 are just heaven and hell all mixed together, on one hand you’re trying to make the game branch for V’s route so that you can get a happy ending, but on another hand– Saeran, known as “Ray” takes you to this place to go play the game, and he is being such a huge sweetheart. Unknown’s characterization in this route is so different from the main stories because he’s actually much more tolerable. The MC in this route thinks they are AIs. I’ll get to that in a bit! He basically tells you to download the app under the pretense that you’ll be playing a dating sim– but none of the character’s we’ve known up until this point are real. When Unknown messages you for the first time, it actually feels like he’s breaking the fourth wall– but technically he isn’t. Prologue: So the introduction for this was very unique, same concept, but with a creative twist. There were a few things that fell below my expectations, but overall this route was wonderfully written and I’m replaying this shit after this review. From the talented voice acting, new twists, and getting to know the characters– Cheritz does not disappoint with this one! Don’t get me wrong, this route wasn’t perfect. ![]() It’s incredibly story packed with SO MUCH NEW CONTENT that was totally worth 300 HG. Okay! So I freaking lovedjust about everything in this route. ![]() ![]() It’s been months and the problem has been “dumped” into a big black hole called engineering.

Due to it lasting 13 frames, Meta Knight's initial dash animation is relatively long, which gives him a slow extended dash-dance and a long fox-trot. Like his fellow Kirby fighters, Meta Knight has multiple double jumps, but unlike most other characters who share this trait, his mobility is overall fast: he has above average walking speed, fast dashing speed, and average air speed and air acceleration. He is very small, to the point of being roughly the same size as Kirby, and is the ninth lightest character, yet he has the tenth highest gravity and an unusually fast falling speed. Meta Knight is an unusual blend of character archetypes. Regardless, Meta Knight retains many of his key advantages from Brawl, which have enabled him to secure strong tournament representation and results. His endurance is also exacerbated by the nerfs to his recovery, with the most notable example being the removal of gliding. Meta Knight's very quick falling speed is also a double-edged sword: while it is an important aspect of his mobility, it is also detrimental because of his light weight, as it leaves him vulnerable to both combos and KOs. ![]() When combined with his continued lack of a projectile, these changes result in Meta Knight having a more difficult time overcoming camping strategies. His outstanding frame data and range, long-distanced recovery and overall damage output have been toned down, while his approach has been weakened because of the total removal of Galaxia's transcendent priority. However, Meta Knight received heavy nerfs in the transition to SSB4, likely owing to his dominance in Brawl. Incidentally, he also boasts a superb recovery: in addition to his multiple double jumps, all of his special moves are reliable at bringing him back on-stage. Meta Knight's overall frame data remains extremely fast and Galaxia grants him disjointed range, which collectively enable him to retain his formidable combo game and edge-guarding potential. Meta Knight's already impressive mobility has been improved: his already fast dashing and falling speeds have become even faster, while his extremely slow air speed has become drastically faster. This is a moderate drop from his top-tier placement in Brawl, where he was ranked 1st out of 38. Meta Knight is ranked 16th out of 54 on the tier list, placing him in the B tier. After initially being teased as a Mii Fighter costume in a Director's Room Miiverse post on August 11, 2014, his return to the series was announced in a Director's Room Miiverse post two days later.Įric Newsome and Atsushi Kisaichi both reprise their roles as Meta Knight's voice actors in the English and Japanese versions, albeit via recycled voice clips from Super Smash Bros.

Starbucks’ latest addition to its permanent menu is the Cloud Macchiato, a coffee-based drink inspired by the Spanish drink leech merengada and made with “Cloud powder,” which includes egg white powder to give the drink a meringue-like texture. Now, It’s getting a twist and some help in the promotions department from Ariana Grande. So, I guess, the $10 I spent on a review no one asked me to write couldn’t have been a total waste.The original macchiato was introduced to the Starbucks menu in the late 1980s. In conclusion, I don’t love these drinks but I wouldn’t say no to another Iced Cloud Macchiato. I did not need to order two of these to understand the Cloud Macchiato, and drinking both was a mistake that made my afternoon more uncomfortable than it had to be. Who the cinnamon version of this drink is for isn’t immediately apparent to me. The dash of cinnamon made the entire thing taste like aromatic ash, but the absence of sickeningly sweet caramel thankfully made it a more mellow affair. The cinnamon version of the Ice Cloud Macchiato wasn’t much different from its caramel brother. Also, the caffeine buzz is intense, and provides a sustained, numbing headache. ![]() Its saving grace is the bitter espresso, which doesn’t taste great but cuts the searing sweetness of the rest of the drink. The drink is marketed as a “cloud in a cup,” but after the first few sips feels like a brick in the stomach. Once I began to drink it, it became clear that the airy substance has the same texture as beer foam, without the advantages of alcohol. ![]() But in walking back to my office to drink the cloudy macchiato at my desk, the consistency began to crumble under the weight of the caramel resting atop the drink. I had the most beautiful drink in the whole place. On an aesthetic level, I was thrilled as it left the barista’s hand and hit the counter. The signature characteristic, the cold foam, looks wonderful. There is a surplus of wow - it lands like an effervescent punch on first sip - which is both the drink’s appeal and its downfall. The Iced Cloud Macchiato is like a ticking time bomb of sweetness and, eventually, doom. *Cloud foam contains egg whites /TyiAGKgGQO So light and fluffy they’re basically a cloud in a cup. Introducing new Iced Cloud Macchiatos in Caramel and Cinnamon. Would these taste like Max Martin beats, break-up anthems or soulful appropriation? Grande certainly secured the bag, but how much of her heart is invested in the cloud concoction? Does Ariana make her own coffee? Below is a review of the drinks, which were judged based on the same criteria: flavor profile, mouthfeel, wow factor, quality of caffeine high and Grandeness. As I waited at the closest Starbucks for the two tall beverages to arrive, curiosity and skepticism began to creep in. ![]() It’s a logical partnership, and one that worked on me - I just needed to see Ariana and Starbucks tweeting at each other to know, deep down, that I was going to drink that cloud. Starbucks is a multi-billion dollar company in need of young consumers with an affinity for sweet drinks and an insatiable appetite to post said sweet things to Instagram, when they’re photogenic, to entice more young consumers with affinities for sweet drinks. Ariana Grande is the face of Starbuck’s “Cloud Macchiato.” It’s synergy made in marketing heaven: Grande loves cloud emojis, is one of the biggest pop stars on the planet and has millions of young fans who presumably love sugar and caffeine in equal measure. ![]() ![]() Insomnia also has an interesting correlation in targeting African Americans more so than other ethnic demographics.ĭiagnosing insomnia is deceptively difficult, with many assuming they have insomnia or relying on less than reputable sources to self-diagnose. Insomnia is more likely to affect women and the elderly more so than men and younger individuals. No one is immune to the risk of insomnia as it is the most common sleep disorder in the world. Endocrine Issues: Endocrine conditions like hyperthyroidism can make it impossible to fall asleep as your hormones go berserk trying to compensate.Substances: The use of substances like caffeine, tobacco, or alcohol can make sleeping difficult.Pain: Suffering from pain can make it difficult or impossible to relax your body enough to sleep.Medication: Common medications used for the common cold, asthma, or even allergies can negatively impact your ability to sleep or maintain a healthy sleep schedule.Mental Health: Conditions such as depression or anxiety can cause stresses that keep you up at night and therefore induce secondary insomnia.Environmental Change: If your sleep schedule becomes stunted due to jet lag, a new work schedule, or even bad sleeping habits like staying up all night watching television, it can induce primary insomnia.External Stimuli: Things like bright lights, uncomfortable temperatures, or loud noises can cause primary insomnia.Stress: Primary insomnia can be caused by stressful stimuli such as being terminated from your job, going through a divorce, losing a loved one, or even something as commonplace as moving.Both variations have a list of potential causes: Insomnia is common because of how easy it is to get a condition that causes secondary insomnia or suffer stimuli that induce primary insomnia. Secondary Insomnia: Secondary insomnia is a form of insomnia that is a symptom of another overarching condition.Primary Insomnia: Primary insomnia is insomnia that has no correlation or relation to another chronic condition you suffer from and occurs as a condition all by itself.Insomnia can be divvied into two variants: Acute insomnia, or short-term, can last anywhere between one night to several weeks, whereas chronic insomnia occurs three nights in the same week for three months. ![]() The condition can be either a short-term or long-term condition that can come and go without explanation. Insomnia itself is a disorder where either falling asleep, staying asleep, or even both at once is extremely difficult and nearly impossible. The symptoms associated with insomnia are invariably the same, consisting of being sleepy during the day, fatigue, a grumpy disposition, and issues with staying concentrated or retaining information. About 25% of the American population experiences acute (short-term) insomnia every year, with 75% of them recovering without developing a chronic condition. Insomnia is one of the most quoted reasons why people do not get to sleep at night. Sleep disorders are a common issue in contemporary Americans, with approximately 70,000,000 American citizens suffering from a sleep disorder of some persuasion. ![]() ![]() ![]() Gunn, long used to fighting bare knuckle in underground illegal brawls with no time limits, is now forced to take a more aggressive approach in the event’s fast-paced two-minute rounds. ![]() “Knuckle up!” one of the two referees yells. Standing just feet apart, Gunn and Costa raise their fists in a blood-stained steel circular ring built for this event, a striking image in U.S. heavyweight boxer from Sau Paulo, Brazil. Walking out to Whitesnake’s “Here I Go Again” in front of a screaming sold-out crowd of 2,000 beer-drinking, cowboy-hat-wearing locals at the Cheyenne Ice and Events Center on the outskirts of Cheyenne, Wyoming, Gunn, 44, takes the stage, squaring off against his younger and larger opponent, Irineu Beato Costa, Jr., a.

The up-and-comer said he hopes to fight in the city again by the end of this year or early next year.įor now, Brunson, a former Ben Franklin High basketball player, continues to make a name for himself in Michigan. So far, Brunson’s only Philadelphia fight took place April 22, 2005, against Kevin Carey at the Blue Horizon, where he won with a first-round technical knockout in 25 seconds. "It’s rough because I love Philly, but this is a business so I have to keep going with my career," he said. But, with his promoter based in Michigan, he does the majority of his work in the Midwest.
