From an energy efficiency standpoint, the R-values are high and thermal bridging almost entirely eliminated. Building waste is also reduced substantially. a continuous layer of thermal insulation in both wall and roof assemblies. Manufacturers claim that an average 2,000 square foot house can be assembled in one day.Īny cost comparisons to traditional framing techniques requires consideration of the time saved, and the fact that insulation and vapour barriers are integrated in SIPs. The Insulspan Structural Insulated Panel (SIP) system consists of performance. The fact that SIPs are delivered made-to-measure with all window and door blocking completed means they fit together quickly and precisely, needing only a boom truck. Installation of structural insulated panels is quicker, cleaner, and more cost effective than traditional framing.Prefabricated right down to window and door openings, SIPs assemble quickly with the help of a boom truckįrom an assembly standpoint, SIP’s require a much smaller crew than a stick-framed building. Off-site fabrication makes SIPs a big part of our green construction practices. SIPs are designed to resist not only axial loads, but also shear loads and out of plane flexural loads.SIPs help create long lasting, sustainable timber frame homes with outstanding air quality, moisture control, reduced noise pollution, and accurate temperature regulation.Using SIPs combined with timbers maximizes floor space, adds flexibility to hybrid designs, and can lower overall costs. Roofs built with Insulspan SIPs combine the tedious labor of framing, sheathing, insulating, and the vapor barrier, into an ultra-quick, one step installation. Product: 4-inch SIP panels, 6-inch roof panels Thickness of SIP Wall Panels: 4-inch insulated wall panels require only.Smaller HVAC units save energy, space, and money. SIP roof panels are roughly 50 more energy efficient than traditional timber frames, with an R-value of 38 for a 10-inch thick panel. SIPs increase timber home operating efficiency by creating an air-sealed, super insulated environment that requires smaller HVAC systems. Higher R-value for your walls and roof means less heat loss and less energy needed for heating and cooling.These properties allow the system to work in concert with other energy-efficient components like windows, doors, and HVAC systems to reduce heat lost by 40-60% over standard wood-framed construction. SIP assemblies provide much higher effective thermal resistance than other construction methods.

![]() However, Synology has a partial list pointing to the WD Red Pro, WD Red Plus, and WD Purple, which Western Digital advertises for surveillance use, rather than NAS use. Oddly, Western Digital doesn't have a public list of its devices with WDDA. "Users will need to first suppress the warning or disable WDDA to continue." Affected products "Only drives with a healthy status can be used to repair or expand a storage pool," Synology's spokesperson said. Users are also concerned that this could prevent people from noticing serious problems with their drive.įurther, you can't repair a pool with a drive marked with a warning label. ![]() "It is clearly predatory tactics by Western Digital trying to sell more hard drives," SpaceRex said in a June 10 video. And SpaceRex said one of its clients also panicked and quickly replaced the "warning" drives out of fear of losing business-critical data. In May, the YouTuber and tech consultant described his outrage, saying three years is "absolutely nothing" for a NAS drive and lamenting the flags having nothing to do with anything besides whether or not a drive has been in use for three years.Ī user on SynoForum discussed their "panic" upon seeing the label. The practice has caused some, like YouTuber SpaceRex, to stop recommending Western Digital drives for the foreseeable future. A spokesperson said the "WDDA monitoring and testing subsystem is developed by Western Digital, including the warning after they reach a certain number of power-on-hours." Advertisement Synology confirmed this to Ars Technica and noted that the labels come from Western Digital, not Synology. ![]() Please consider to replace the drive soon." There seem to be no discernible problems with the hard drives otherwise. The recommended action says: "The drive has accumulated a large number of power on hours the entire life of the drive. WDDA is similar to SMART monitoring and rival offerings, like Seagate's IronWolf, and is supposed to provide analytics and actionable items. “Warning,” your NAS drive’s been on for 3 yearsĪs users have reported online, including on Synology-focused and Synology's own forums, as well as on Reddit and YouTube, Western Digital drives using Western Digital Device Analytics ( WDDA) are getting a "warning" stamp in Synology DSM once their power-on hours count hits the three-year mark. Now, some are saying they won't use or recommend the company's hard drives anymore. Western Digital already had a steep climb to win back NAS customers' trust after shipping NAS drives with SMR (shingled magnetic recording) instead of CMR (conventional magnetic recording). The practice's revelation is the last straw for some users. With no other factors considered for these automatic flags, Western Digital is accused of age-shaming drives to push people to buy new HDDs prematurely. That may be why some customers have been panicked, confused, and/or angered to see their Western Digital NAS hard drive automatically given a warning label in Synology's DiskStation Manager (DSM) after they were powered on for three years. When it comes to how long the drive has been active, there are backup companies like Backblaze using hard drives that are nearly 8 years old. ![]() When should you be concerned about a NAS hard drive failing? Multiple factors are at play, so many might turn to various SMART (self-monitoring, analysis, and reporting technology) data. ![]() ![]() ![]() “Whoa! Wait a minute! Are you telling me the Chevy Tracker is more efficient than our lord and savior, the Geely Coolray?!” Yes. And yet, here they are offering one of the most fuel-efficient SUVs available to buyers, the Chevrolet Tracker. Something many might not consider would be an offering from Chevrolet, and it’s not surprising given how few offerings the Golden bowtie has in our market. While many of the options on this list cost over ₱1,200,000, the Raize stands at a relatively affordable ₱1,051,000 for the Turbo variant, while the N/A manual variant costs just ₱751,000 - a downright bargain in today’s market. Where the Raize has the competition beat, weirdly, is in price. Yes, it’s more “efficient,” but it’s forcing the 1.0-liter turbo to stay in boost for longer and more air means more fuel. That means the engine will consume more. Part of the reason for this is, again, that CVT which forces the engine to spend more time at high RPMs in pursuit of efficiency. Surprisingly, however, those figures are achieved by the naturally aspirated engine, while the Turbo can manage 22 kilometers per liter on the highway and 10 in the city. The biggest news with this mini SUV is the fuel consumption - 24 kilometers per liter on the highway and 12 in the city. There's also a 1.0-liter turbo which bumps up performance to 98 PS and 140 Newton-meters of torque. Under the hood of the Raize sits either a 1.2-liter naturally aspirated engine making 88 PS and 113 Newton-meters of torque mated to either a CVT or a 5-speed manual. If you thought there was going to be a list without at least one Toyota, you are mistaken, because the Toyota Raize is pretty good at sipping fuel. #3 Toyota Raizeġ0 km/L city, 22 km/L highway (Turbo), 12 km/L city, 24 km/L highway (N/A) ![]() This makes the HR-V quite an affordable Honda. Price-wise, the HR-V hasn’t lost the plot of affordability either, with a price tag of ₱1,389,000 for the S variant, and ₱1,649,000 for the turbocharged V variant. The turbo forces more air into the engine and that means the engine consumes more fuel as well. Part of that glaring difference is because of the programming of the CVT, which likes to keep the engine in the powerband when at speed. Meanwhile, the naturally aspirated S variant gets 9.3 km/L in the city and nearly 24 on the highway, which works out to 16.55 kilometers per liter combined. In terms of fuel consumption, the Turbo gets 9.5 kilometers per liter in the city, and 21.3 kilometers per liter on the highway – pretty strong numbers, which result in a combined consumption of 15.4 kilometers per liter. ![]() Powered by the same 1.5-liter engine found in the Civic, the turbocharged HR-V V variant makes around 177 PS and 240 Newton-meters of torque, all of which gets sent through a CVT to the front wheels. #4 Honda HR-Vĩ.5 km/L city, 21.3 km/L highway (Turbo) 9.3 km/L city, 23.8 km/L highway (non-Turbo)Īrguably one of the most popular subcompact crossovers in the market, the HR-V from Honda has learned how to stretch the peso even further than before. For what it’s worth, though, the 2008 is a bargain for entry into the Euro-spec lifestyle – despite the fact it comes to us from Malaysia. That’s quite a lot of money to part with, especially considering the car is relatively exclusive, and it comes from a brand whose recognition in the market is still pretty slim. The last metric to be discussed is the price - ₱1,750,000 in the Peugeot’s case. After all, if your target market lives in the city, they’re going to want to know how it performs there, be it good or bad. Where the Peugeot’s fuel consumption takes a nosedive is in the city, where it struggles to do more than 8 kilometers per liter – not atrocious by any measure, but it certainly plays a role in the decision-making process. Though it may take a second to build up steam, it can still throw your head back when you mash it. With a combined city and highway average of 15 kilometers per liter, the Peugeot 2008 is certainly not the people’s first consideration when looking for a fuel-efficient ride, and yet, it manages to get an impressive 22 kilometers per liter on the highway thanks to a frugal 1.2-liter turbo inline 3-cylinder engine, mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission.ĭon’t think that because it’s frugal it means it’s weak, because the 2008 puts out 132 PS and 230 Newton-meters of torque. ![]() ![]() ![]() I think that the Heretic defied Providence by helping Mithrix understand what was happening on Petrichor V while he was trapped on the moon (I am assuming this because of the "A Moment, Whole" logbook entry). From the Heretic's logbook entry, we can assume that the Heretic was being punished for defying Providence as shown by how Providence killed the Heretic on sight. Killed by the planet!Īnd that is why Risk of Rain 2’s lore is so damn terrifying.From the Heresy items in the logbook, we can see that the Heretic was tortured for something that they did. Trapped on a planet that mercilessly wants them all dead. In a system that apparently didn’t even have a habitable planet on it.Įssentially, any and all survivors are doomed. Because the ship they were on was off course and slowing down, when it shouldn’t have been. According to its lore entry, the chances of survivors being found are insanely low, and it would take them months at best to be found. Perhaps the scariest tidbit of lore is actually buried in the lore for a common item, Gasoline. No matter what happens, rescue is not coming for the survivors. This is all happening on a planet that we’ve visited before, where we fought a god-like ruler and only one person appeared to have survived. We know that the player characters are survivors, but what was their ship doing above this cursed planet in the first place? We know that there’s a cult to a death god, but what is it doing? And we also have strange beings worshiping the moon and creating godly items that warp reality itself. And we only know that because it’s mentioned in some of the lore of the item Predatory Instincts in RoR2. Not much is known how these games tie together, apart from the fact that we’re on the same planet, and the final boss of RoR1 is dead in RoR2. ![]() How this all ties into Risk of Rain 1, I’m not sure. Really, the lore hints at something so huge that the player is almost insignificant. It all seems like something massive is going on behind the scenes, and we only get traces of these things via snippets of data, collected from various items. On the other hand, we have strange daggers, experimental items, ancient relics and objects that are so alien we don’t understand them. On the one hand we have items people have ordered and were being shipped across the stars. The items we stumble across while we try to escape range greatly. And then there’s sooo much god-like terribleness.įrom a cult worshiping N’Kuhana, a deity who kills everything and demands constant sacrifices, to beings that are apparently bending time and space around them, the survivors won’t be surviving for long. The further you go, the more the wildlife adapts and tries to kill you harder. Everywhere is seemingly beautiful and deadly in its own way.Īnd the wildlife? Well, we all know how deadly that is. Massive chains and platforms seem to litter this completely alien landscape, alongside rivers of pebbles and gargantuan rings of stone. We’re stuck on a planet that wants us dead, and every single outpost we’ve seen has been in ruins, or too alien for us to understand. Outside of the simple premise, all is not well. ![]() Either at the hands of the planet, in the cold shimmers of an obelisk or in a frozen moment of time, lost forever. And that teleporter takes you to a new place where more things are trying to kill you.įor now, the only way out is death. Unfortunately, your only real way out of each area is via a teleporter, in a world where literally everything is trying to kill you. You fell from the sky in your escape pod, and now you need to escape and hopefully get home. The ship you were traveling on was destroyed. Your own lore is simple.įor the player, the only important thing is that you need to get off this planet. The actual lore though? It’s hidden away in item descriptions, logs and quiet little phrases. Until you are killed by the planet, obliterate yourself or fade to black after fighting a special Scavenger. There’s a handful of levels but you normally loop around and around. Right now, a lot of the “story” aspects are missing. While I never really played Risk of Rain 1 (which is too hard for me), I have been playing a lot of Risk of Rain 2. And all of it is kinda… weird and abstract and not really well-understood. You wouldn’t think that the Risk of Rain series had any sort of lore, but it does. ![]() ![]() ![]() Take the time to read over the list of Japanese whiskies below, and give each one due consideration.The Japanese whisky boom has not been kind to Yoichi’s lineup of age statement single malt whiskies. The dynamic temperature changes are reflected in the whisky, with a faster maturation time and deeper, more complex flavors. Japan’s temperatures are more extreme than Scotland’s, with hotter summers and colder winters. Rather than mass-producing whisky, Japanese distilleries place an emphasis on quality and elegance, constantly refining their processes to ensure a more luxurious, delicate product. Mizunara barrels infuse the whisky with flavors reminiscent of coconut and sandalwood, utterly unique to Japanese whiskys. During World War II, the shortage of sherry casks drove the Japanese to fashion barrels from mizunara wood, a type of Japanese oak. Many Japanese distilleries use mineral waters collected from special wells that add a unique depth of flavor to the whisky. For example, the Yamazaki Distillery sources their water from mountains near Tokyo, which are rumored to be “fabled” or “mythical”. Other elements unique to Japanese whisky include: These whiskies are then blended together to make a lighter, more fragrant whisky that is heavier on the fruit and floral notes than the peat-heavy Scotch whiskies. The casks are then stored in a number of warehouses around the country-some cold and humid, others hot-to ensure a variety of aroma and flavor profiles as they mature. One fascinating element of Japanese whisky is that the whisky is often aged in casks previously used for sherry, bourbon, or other liquors. Unlike the pot-stilled Scotch whiskey from which they originate, Japanese whiskey is distilled in a continuous still. Japanese whiskies are typically heavier in barley than Western whiskies. ![]() A world whisky is any whiskey made in Japan that doesn’t quite fit the specifications listed above-the ABV is too low, the whisky is made, bottled, or matured elsewhere, etc. The whisky must be bottled at a minimum of 40% ABV, and, finally, it must spend at least three years maturing in (unspecified) wood casks in Japan.Ī lot of Japanese whiskies are single malt and blended whiskies, but you’ll also find “pure malt” and “world whisky” uniquely in Japan.Ī pure malt whisky is a blended whisky made using whiskies pulled from a distiller’s various locations around Japan (a common practice among the Japanese). Certain elements of the process-including fermentation, distillation, and bottling-also have to take place in Japan (though, as you’ll see below, some Japanese whiskies source their mash from outside the country). Japanese whisky is (no surprise) a whisky produced in Japan, using malted grains and water extracted in Japan. I guarantee that once you have your first sip, you’ll be hooked! Even if you’re not fully converted to drinking only Japanese whisky, you’ll agree that it’s worth always having a bottle (or three) in your bar for those nights when you want a fancy cocktail or a sipper that prioritizes smooth flavor over potency. But when it comes to delicate elegance and the precise perfection of craft, you can’t beat Japanese whisky!īelow, we’ll walk you through what makes these Japanese-made whiskies so divine, and what sets them apart from all the other whiskies produced in Ireland, Scotland, the U.S., and Canada.Īnd, for your sampling pleasure, we’ve curated a list of the 15 best Japanese whiskies you can find today. ![]() Oh sure, we all hear about how wonderful Scotch is, how bourbon is the real man’s drink, and how rye whiskey will put hair on your chest.

So ultimately, as alluded to at the beginning of this post, what this song is speaking to is how complex romantic relationships can be at times. I Miss Him Already!īut in the aftermath of attempting such a move, Lisa has come to realize that she does in fact miss him when he’s not around. In other words, these feelings are so strong that she apparently decides to go back, even though, as explained above, this romance is less than ideal. So it’s like now, Lisa has had enough. She doesn’t come off as the kind of individual who is privy to letting someone perpetually lambast her like this, even if it is the man she loves. Well actually, what we are really dealing with here is a vocalist who, up until now, has slept on the power of love. That is to say that she resolves to ‘leave’ the addressee alright. That’s a roundabout way of saying that someone is close-minded. Also, he has apparently accused her of being loquacious – and not in like an enjoyable, Jay Leno type of way. Instead her partner, the addressee, is telling her stuff like she ‘only hears what she wants to’. ![]() But it doesn’t come off as being the direct type, i.e. ![]() So for starters, it’s as if the vocalist is the victim of verbal abuse. Indeed, being heartbroken as the result of being in love with a partner that is indirectly toxic is not an experience that’s easy to put into words.

Therefore, and according to the biblical sources (Mt 25:31–46), the conjunction of the Last Judgment and the works of mercy is frequent in the pictorial tradition of Christian art. The believers who are judged worthy as well as those ignorant of Christ's teaching who followed the dictates of conscience will go to everlasting bliss, and those who are judged unworthy will go to everlasting condemnation.Ī decisive factor in the Last Judgment will be the question, were the corporal works of mercy practiced or not during one's lifetime. The Last Judgment will occur after the resurrection of the dead and "our 'mortal body' will come to life again." The Catholic Church teaches that at the time of the Last Judgment Christ will come in His glory, and all the angels with him, and in his presence the truth of each one's deeds will be laid bare, and each person who has ever lived will be judged with perfect justice. Those in purgatory will always reach heaven, but those in hell will be there eternally. Immediately upon death each person undergoes the particular judgment, and depending upon one's behavior on earth, goes to heaven, purgatory, or hell. The Last Judgment, Sistine Chapel by Michelangelo (1536–1541)īelief in the Last Judgment (often linked with the general judgment) is held firmly in Catholicism. Moreover, in "the final judgment every one of our thoughts, words, and deeds will be known and judged" and individuals will be justified on the basis of their faith in Jesus, although " our works will not escape God's examination." Catholicism After the Judgment, the Righteous will go to their eternal reward in heaven and the Accursed will depart to hell (see Matthew 25)." The "issue of this judgment shall be a permanent separation of the evil and the good, the righteous and the wicked" (see The Sheep and the Goats). Īnglican and Methodist theology holds that at the time of the Last Day, "Jesus will return and that He will 'judge both the quick and the dead'," and "all be bodily resurrected and stand before Christ as our Judge. Souls remain in Hades until the Last Judgment and "Christians may also improve in holiness after death during the middle state before the final judgment". Īnglican and Methodist theology holds that "there is an intermediate state between death and the resurrection of the dead, in which the soul does not sleep in unconsciousness, but exists in happiness or misery till the resurrection, when it shall be reunited to the body and receive its final reward." This space, termed Hades, is divided into Paradise (the Bosom of Abraham) and Gehenna "but with an impassable gulf between the two". The doctrine and iconographic depiction of the Last Judgment are drawn from many passages from the apocalyptic sections of the Bible, but most notably from Jesus' teaching of the strait gate in the Gospel of Matthew and in the Gospel of Luke.Īrticle IV – Of the Resurrection of Christ in Anglicanism's Articles of Religion and Article III – Of the Resurrection of Christ of Methodism's Articles of Religion state that: Ĭhrist did truly rise again from death, and took again his body, with flesh, bones, and all things appertaining to the perfection of Man's nature wherewith he ascended into Heaven, and there sitteth, until he return to judge all Men at the last day. The Last Judgment mosaic (14th century), south facade of Saint Vitus Cathedral, Prague, Czech Republic Biblical sources The Last Judgment has inspired numerous artistic depictions. Christian futurists believe it will follow the resurrection of the dead and the Second Coming of Jesus, while full preterists believe it has already occurred. The Christian tradition is also followed by Islam, where it is mentioned in the 43rd chapter ( Az-Zukhruf) of the Quran, according to some interpretations. The concept is found in all the canonical gospels, particularly in the Gospel of Matthew. The Last Judgment, Final Judgment, Day of Reckoning, Day of Judgment, Judgment Day, Doomsday, Day of Resurrection or The Day of the Lord ( Hebrew: יום הדין, romanized: Yom ha-Dīn Arabic: یوم القيامة, romanized: Yawm al-Qiyāmah or یوم الدین, Yawm ad-Dīn) is part of the Abrahamic religions and the Frashokereti of Zoroastrianism.Ĭhristianity considers the Second Coming of Jesus Christ to entail the final judgment by God of all people who have ever lived, resulting in the approval of some and the penalizing of others.
