![]() While a few journalists were aware of their cult-like worship, most were hooked and competed to outdo one another with embarrassing hagiographic praise. Newsweek editor Evan Thomas declared Obama to be a deity (“Obama's standing above the country, above the world, he’s sort of God.”) His very words were able to make the leg of MSNBC’s Chris Matthews “tingle.” His pants’ crease proved for David Brooks a talisman of his future greatness, along with the fact that the mellifluent Obama “talks like us.” Instead, journalists quickly started worshipping candidate Obama in a manner never quite seen before, not even in the days of the iconic liberal presidents like Franklin Delano Roosevelt and John F. Jeremiah Wright, the neighborhood confidant and former terrorist Bill Ayers, and the wheeler-dealer and soon-to-be felon Tony Rezko. In the 2008 campaign, reporters ignored the close and disturbing relationships between the mostly unknown Obama and a cast of unsavory characters: his racist and anti-Semitic pastor Rev. Bush in the 2000 Republican primaries-was reduced to a cranky spoiler of the nation’s rare chance to be saved by the messianic Obama from the Bush era’s legacy of war, economic crisis, and callousness. In the 2008 general election, moderate Republican John McCain-once the darling of the liberal press during his bid to sidetrack George W. ![]() Senate after less than four years in office, appeared to progressive journalists to have come from central casting: glib and charismatic, an Ivy-League pedigree, mixed racial ancestry, a power marriage to a Harvard-trained black lawyer, and an exotic name resonant of multicultural fides.īy comparison, even the would-be first female president Hillary Clinton seemed staid.

![]() ![]() On August 21 2017, we will witness what was dubbed The Great American Eclipse. Here’s how to shoot both We are less than a lunation away of probably the most advertised total solar eclipse in history. using the macro facility to take from near the photo of the Black X-Ray radiography. Alex Conu 17 Comments A total solar eclipse has two main phases: a partial and a total one. I took the picture with my 350D with the Sigma 24-70 f/4 EX DG Macro at 70 mm. You have to be very quick and just AVOID EYE EXPOSITION TO THE SUN - EVEN TROGH THE BLACK SHEET) BECAUSE ALL KIND OF DANGEROUS RADIATION (INVISIBLE) CAN DAZZLING AND DAMAGE YOUR EYES. Then coming from this protective barrier I can go up with the camera throgh the black X-Ray and take the photo.īE VERY CAREFULY: THE X-RAY BLACK RADIOGRAPHY IT IS - NOT - NOT - NOT - AND I REPEAT AGAIN NOT A SOLAR FILTER, ![]() I taped to my dinnig room´s window and I also put below some solid flat material that BLOCK ALL LIGHT: This is my protective barrier. The wet one has a small emulsion made with tinny Ag crystals and it´s darker (optical density=3) and more homogenious (so you can look for your old bone radiographies to see if you get one with a lot of black area). I set up over the window a BLACK X-Ray radiography, the wet one (obtained with chemicals), NOT the one coming from a dry Laser printer (actually used for Echography, CT or Magnetic Resonance images). You have to be very,very,very carefuly and avoid DIRECT EXPOSURE OF YOUR EYES TO THE SUN. THIS IS WHAT I DID, BUT I DO NOT TAKE ANY REPONSABILITY FOR OTHERS DO, I AM ONLY RESPONSABLE OF MYSELF AND MY ACTS. I shall try to take some photos to make a series, but I must go the doctor in between, so I am going to miss part of the begining. After some testing, I think this is a suitable image of the sun, 100 % crop of the original, unretouched: As I live in Madrid and tomorrow we are going to have an anular total solar eclipse, after 241 years !!! I was doing some setup in order to try to take some pictures. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Obviously, it’s not good practice in real life to fill your oil to overflowing, but as far as the game is concerned, that’s how it’s done. When you are topping off fluids, the game doesn’t recognize the task as being completed until the fluid reservoir is full or overflowing. Removing a tire with the invisible lug wrench Screenshot: Red Dot Games / Shop Press 5. Now, while rust may be a good indicator of failed parts in a real garage, it’s not always as simple as “more rust equals worse part.” In addition, rust appears on parts that are bad, with the amount of rust corresponding to how bad the part is. Obviously, the realism here suffers a bit, as a magical percentage showing you the quality of a part doesn’t just pop up in a real garage. Typically, red and orange parts need to be replaced to fix the issue. Parts that are at 100% to 80% quality are green, parts that are at 79% to 50% quality are yellow, parts that are at 49% to 15% quality are orange, and parts that are at 14% to 0% are red. The game assigns a percentage to the quality of the part, as well as a corresponding color. Later, you can unlock tools that will help you diagnose problems. You can do this by “examining” the car (a mode where you quickly scan all visible parts) or you can just start taking parts off from the failed system and fire the parts cannon at it until you find the culprit. As you progress, you’re given jobs that just describe general failure modes with the vehicle, and you must diagnose what needs to be fixed. Early on, you’re given a list of tasks from the customer that need to be completed with each job. Once you’re in your new shop, you can start taking jobs over the shop phone or through the default menu. Welcome to your shop! Screenshot: Red Dot Games / Shop Press 2. Once you complete the tutorial, you’re given your own shop on “Route 66” somewhere in the southwestern United States, 4,000 “credits” (the in-game currency) and you’re off! Wouldn’t it be nice if this were all it took to open your own shop? Of course, it takes years, maybe decades of hard work, training, and planning to not only learn car repair but also build your own business. That’s good for those anxious to get into the action, but the game does suffer a bit from a lack of explanation, leaving you to figure things out through trial and error. It’s rather light: you change oil, balance tires, replace shock absorbers and that’s pretty much it. When you first launch the game, you get a tutorial to learn the basics. Platforms: Microsoft Windows, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, iOS, Android ![]() Below are seven major things that will make you roll your eyes in Car Mechanic Simulator. Even though I’m not a major gearhead, it’s obvious real shops have it a lot harder than this game makes it out to be. This one raises the question: how accurate is this game to being a real mechanic?Ĭurious to find out, I bought the latest version of the game ( Car Mechanic Simulator 2021) for my PS4 and decided to give it a whirl. There are games that simulate flying a plane, games that simulate working in an office, and yes … even a game that simulates what it’s like to be a goat.Īdd to that list Car Mechanic Simulator, a game first published in 2014, with yearly versions released since on Windows, Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android. These days, there’s a simulator video game for everything. ![]() ![]() The Bronco Sport rides on the same platform that underpins the compact Escape crossover, and every model has all-wheel drive. ![]() Along with a 245-hp turbo four-the more potent of the two available powerplants-and an enhanced all-wheel-drive system, the Badlands has a lifted suspension and upgraded dampers for tackling rugged terrain. Otherwise, it’s a more accessible alternative to the bigger Bronco.Īlthough the Badlands is one of the most expensive models, it's also the most capable off-road. Our main gripes with the 2024 Bronco Sport include some cheap-looking cabin materials and a tight back seat. Along with all-wheel drive, a 181-hp turbocharged three-cylinder engine is standard, and this setup returned an impressive 33 mpg highway in our real-world fuel-economy test. Of course, the rest of the Bronco Sport lineup has lots to offer too, including a practical interior layout and myriad thoughtful features. When it comes to legit off-road chops, the range-topping Badlands alone has a punchy 245-hp turbo four and a torque-vectoring all-wheel-drive system that put it in exclusive company with the trail-rated Jeep Cherokee. While it won't be conquering the Rubicon Trail anytime soon, the Bronco Sport can venture farther off the beaten path than most other compact SUVs. However, for 2021, the diesel’s rating dropped by 1 mpg, while the new PowerBoost hybrid has an EPA rating of 24 mpg combined, making it the new efficiency king in the F-150 lineup.The 2024 Ford Bronco Sport can't go places the bigger Bronco can, but the baby version still has the capabilities and styling to give people a taste of the off-roader lifestyle. ![]() The diesel variant had previously been the choice for those who wanted a fuel-sipping F-150, since its EPA combined rating of 24 mpg is the highest among all variants of the 2020 truck. The hybrid is also better than the diesel in terms of fuel economy. Ford told Car and Driver that "customers who need maximum towing torque" should now opt for the PowerBoost, with the 3.5-liter V-6 hybrid setup putting out 430 hp and 570 pound-feet, improvements over the Power Stroke on both measures. The Power Stroke's calling card as a diesel had been its 440 pound-feet of torque, making it a great option for those who wanted to tow. It is not especially surprising to see the Power Stroke fall by the wayside-it produced just 250 horsepower, which made it the least powerful engine in the lineup, easily surpassed by the 290-hp 3.3-liter V-6 and the 325-hp EcoBoost 2.7-liter V-6.
