In fact, I like it a lot (just not nearly as much as I like the other two). Just because I said I prefer the two handgun calibers I mentioned above doesn’t mean I think the 9mm is no good. Why the 9×19 Parabellum is a great option So as much as I hate to say it, my two favorite handgun calibers have the same Achilles’ heel: the handguns they’re chambered for can’t carry as many rounds as I’d like. Not saying that wheelguns are worse than semi-autos, if anything I feel safer knowing that I can store and access mine in a pinch, like in my car or nightstand. Typical small frame revolvers can only hold five rounds, medium frame revolvers can only hold six to seven, and large frame revolvers can only hold up to eight. Its only downside: lackluster ammo capacity. A lighter bullet with a smaller cross sectional circumference propelled to velocities a couple hundred feet per second faster than the speed of sound, this handgun caliber is unrivaled when it comes to penetration, so much so that it will overpenetrate soft tissue targets - but that can easily be mitigated by using soft jacketed hollow point (SJHP) or jacketed soft point (JSP) bullets. 357 magnum on the other hand is the complete opposite of the. JHP - its only downsides: terrible solid target penetration (slow and fat bullets have a hard time penetrating even entry-level body armors) and lackluster ammo capacity in handguns chambered for it (the typical 1911 magazine can only fit seven to eight of these big fat cartridges). 45 ACP might be the slowest and heaviest of the “big three” semi-auto handgun calibers, but it makes the biggest holes in soft tissue targets when comparing FMJ vs. For me, as far as handgun calibers, these two being on the higher end of the ballistics performance spectrum, no other calibers come close. 357 magnum - which shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone because like I said, I love 1911s and magnum revolvers. ![]() ![]() 460 Rowland), I have a soft spot for both the. Likewise for handgun calibers, not counting rounds I consider obscure but slowly gaining popularity (e.g. ![]() It needs Moody and Kuminga to be better immediately to take advantage of Curry’s window. ![]() But Golden State has one of the best players in the history of the N.B.A. That’s not abnormal for players barely out of their teenage years. He scored 7 points in 19 minutes Monday night. Moody and Kuminga, each in his second year, have been yanked in and out of the lineup this season, though Moody has had playing time in this series. Golden State traded Wiseman this season as injuries and inconsistency left him without a firm role in the rotation. It has meant not trading young, developing talent for veterans who could help the team now, and placing more of the load on Curry in the back half of his career. It was a risky maneuver with mixed results. It would try to chase championships in the present on the backs of Curry, Thompson and Green, while also developing young talent like Jonathan Kuminga, 20 (drafted seventh in 2021) Moses Moody, 20 (14th pick in that same draft) James Wiseman, 22 (second pick in 2020) and Jordan Poole, 23 (28th pick in 2019). Instead, Golden State has had to rely as much on Curry at age 35 as it did when he was 25, a recipe for trouble this late in the season.įor years, the Golden State front office has been selling a two-timeline plan of development. Those kinds of contributions have eluded Golden State this postseason. The second-year guard Austin Reaves, also 24, chipped in 21 points. For the Lakers, Lonnie Walker IV, 24, a guard in his fifth year, scored 15 points, including crucial baskets in the fourth, to keep Golden State at bay. It hasn’t helped that Golden State’s younger players have not been able to fill the void left by an off night by Curry. Somebody has to win four times, and that’s why you play it out.” “You go home and you take care of business and you get a win and the momentum is right back in your favor. “It feels like what it is: three to one,” Coach Steve Kerr told reporters after Game 4. But with injuries to Durant, who was then a teammate, and Thompson, the team lost in six games. Three years later, Golden State found itself down, 3-1, against the Toronto Raptors in the finals. In 2016, Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook’s Oklahoma City Thunder went up, 3-1, in the Western Conference finals before Golden State came roaring back and won the series. ![]() This isn’t the first time Golden State has been down 3-1 in a playoff series. But if Golden State doesn’t dig deep to resurface the magic of the last decade, its dynasty will be extinguished on Wednesday in San Francisco. Perhaps this is the reality of having a core anchored by Curry, 35 Thompson, 33 and Green, 33: It’s easier to get tired and make mental mistakes. The late possessions were emblematic of a season-long deficiency that has plagued Golden State, particularly on the road: an inability to sustain effort through long stretches. That, combined with not getting playmaking from Golden State’s role players, has placed the team in dire straits, down, three games to one, against a rejuvenated Lakers team. Klay Thompson, Curry’s teammate, was 3 for 11. Instead, the Lakers won, 104-101.Ĭurry finished the game shooting 12 for 30. Golden State let an opportunity slip through its fingers, having led by as many as 12 in the third quarter. I wish I had a little bit more awareness to maybe call a timeout knowing we’ve got enough time, but, you know, it just didn’t go our way.” “I actually felt like somebody was behind me,” Curry said after the game. On an ensuing jump ball, Curry came down with possession, and instead of calling a timeout, he threw the ball away. With nine seconds left, forward Draymond Green threw the ball away with Golden State down 3. Those were two of several fumbles by Golden State in the closing moments of an ugly affair in which the team did not show the championship mettle that led to four N.B.A. After an offensive rebound, Curry missed a 3-pointer over Davis again. First, Davis, a top defensive player, poked the ball away. But Curry was stymied twice on the same possession. history matched up against a slower center. It should have been a mismatch: one of the greatest scoring guards in N.B.A. The Lakers were up by 1 point in Game 4 of their Western Conference semifinal series, and the Golden State Warriors needed a basket to keep from being pushed to the brink of elimination. LOS ANGELES - With 37 seconds left in the fourth quarter Monday night, Stephen Curry was isolated with Lakers center Anthony Davis guarding him one on one. I read articles about how to do it better, and I learned that I also really enjoyed deep-throating. He let out this deep moan and I realized how much he enjoyed it, so I kept doing it. One day when I was giving him a blow job, I put his penis as far down my throat as I could until I gagged a bit. Woman B: I had been dating my then-boyfriend for a few months, and we were starting to explore more sexually. ![]() My first partner didn’t have a huge penis, so it wasn’t an issue then, but it hasn’t always been so easy, depending on the size of their penis. ![]() No one had ever really taught me what to do, so based on what I’d seen in porn, I thought you had to get the whole penis in your mouth to really do it right. Woman A: It was probably the first time I gave head, honestly. Tell me about the first time you deep-throated. Three women get super honest about their experiences deep-throating, what made them try it, what they like most about it, and their best advice for how to go about trying it for yourself, if you’re so inclined. While the simplistic definition might not sound super hard, when you factor in a gag reflex (you know, that natural thing that your body does when you’re choking), it becomes tricky. Other than being the alias for a Watergate informant, deep-throating, the sex act, refers to when the blow job giver puts their partner’s entire penis down their mouth, so far so that it reaches their throat. When it comes to blow-job techniques, deep-throating is seen as one of the most intense tricks you can pull out of your sleeve. ![]() If you love Catherine's Wheel Stitch, then be sure to try this free crochet pattern!

Option 1: use Health SyncĪ third-party app like Health Sync is a solution to make the bridge between Garmin Connect data and Google Fit. I will detail two different options below to sync Garmin Connect to Google Fit successfully. How to sync Garmin Connect to Google Fit? I will recommend two options below to choose from which will allow you to see your Garmin data in Google Fit. But don’t worry you can get the data to Google Fit, it’s just not direct. Google did not take this option within Google Fit and this is why it is not possible to connect directly Garmin Connect to Google Fit. This is why some apps are able to collect data from Garmin. Indeed, Garmin does not sync to other services natively, but Garmin offers an API for interconnection with other services. It is possible to sync Garmin Connect data with Google Fit using third-party apps. Can you sync Garmin Connect data with Google Fit? I will refer to Garmin connect several times in this article as it is the Garmin’s fitness app, equivalent to Google Fit where all data from Garmin devices go to.

Google Fit is popular among people to store health and sports data. ![]() Characteristics Mundane OntologyĪlthough better known to adults, the creature was an extraterrestrial one-eyed one-horned Flying Purple People Eater, who presumably originated from the planet Iilewq, which is believed by those so inclined to orbit both of the Ofoni systems. Pablo Picasso's bogus rendition of the Flying Purple People Eater. Later, the alien became a minor pop star who also appeared on stage, radio, and the silver screen. The creature also landed the leading role in My Stepdad's a One-eyed One-horned Flying Purple People Eater, in which it portrayed the Stepdad. ![]() ![]() Being unable to eat much of anything but grapes and plums, while raisins and prunes were a bit too dark for the finicky creature's palate, the Purple People Eater switched its focus to a career in show business.Īlthough no real substitute for purple people, the monster's foray into the entertainment industry was met with a modicum of success when it played a background actor in such television shows as Twilight Zone and The Ed Sullivan Show. The situation became more complex when the beast finally realized there are no purple people on Earth other than small children who try to retaliate against their parental figures and patients suffering from Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. The standing hypothesis is that the creature came from a planet of Purple People Eaters who were probably running low on food. Upon entering Earth's rarified atmosphereb the creature also gained the useful ability to fly - which made having wings all the more sensible. The One-eyed One-horned Flying Purple People Eater was an alien with a single eye and horn who descended on our planet simply to hunt for purple people. ![]() “This dreadnought has the classic larger body shape for someone who wants something a little bigger and louder.”īuy Recording King Dreadnought Acoustic $179.99 How to Pick the Best Acoustic Guitar ![]() If you want the dreadnought style, which features a slightly bigger frame that can produce more sound, Glasebrook likes this Recording King pick. Whether you’re thinking about taking up guitar lessons or you want an instrument to strum your favorite riff, here’s everything you need to know about buying the best acoustic guitar (and a few of our favorite picks from brands like Fender and Recording King).

The good news: When it comes down to buying a new acoustic guitar, your favorite artist probably didn’t start out with anything fancy – and you don’t have to, either. But knowing which guitar to start with can feel as intimidating as memorizing the intro to “Stairway to Heaven.” Whether you want to become the next Neil Young or Joni Mitchell, or maybe just learn a few new chords, picking up an acoustic guitar is easier than ever thanks to their portability, great sound, and price.

But, Hulu does offer A&E, Lifetime, History Channel, and Vice channels, which YouTube TV does not. YouTube TV also offers MLB Network, Tennis Channel, PBS, and PBS Kids. This means that YouTube TV subscribers can watch Comedy Central, Nickelodeon, BET, and MTV. For starters, YouTubeTV now offers Viacom channels. However, there are some differences in channel offerings. Both platforms also offer live sports via channels such as Fox Sports 1, Fox Sports 2, ESPN, ESPN2, and Golf Channel. This includes popular channels like ABC, CBS, Fox, and NBC. ![]() YouTube TV, on the other hand, is focused on live TV and only offers plans with live channels.īoth Hulu + Live TV and YouTube TV work with the major networks we’re all used to seeing. Hulu subscribers only have access to live TV if they subscribe to Hulu + Live TV. With Hulu, subscribers have access to Hulu’s whole library of old episodes of TV shows and movies, as well as Hulu original content. Let’s look at these two platforms more closely! What You Can Watch on Hulu vs YouTubeTV YouTube TV channels The services are quite similar to one another, but there are slight differences between the two in terms of features and customization. In short, both Hulu and YouTube TV will give us access to live TV and both are alternatives to traditional cable and satellite providers. But that’s all you’ll get: there is no option to add additional accounts or screens. If you subscribe to YouTube TV instead, you can make up to six accounts and watch on up to three screens at the same time. If you need additional screens, you’ll have to upgrade to unlimited screens through an add-on to your Hulu plan. With a basic Hulu account, you can watch on up to two screens at the same time. ![]() The number of users and simultaneous screens also varies between Hulu and YouTube TV. However, with YouTube TV, subscribers get unlimited DVR storage for 9 months. With Hulu + Live TV, subscribers get 50 hours of DVR storage in the cloud (this can be increased as an add-on). But YouTube TV does not have an option to access only the on-demand content in its library: All Youtube TV subscription plans have live TV.Īnother difference between the two is the DVR and the ability to record your favorite shows. Subscribers get access to live TV from top networks, including local channels. YouTube TV is similar to other live TV streaming services (including Hulu + Live TV). We’re talking here about top-rated networks you know from cable and satellite, such as ABC, CBS, and Fox. Hulu + Live TV users pay a subscription fee to access live TV networks. This is essentially Hulu’s version of cable without the strings and contracts. This is the option that gives users access to both the Hulu on-demand library of TV shows and movies and access to live streaming channels. Hulu offers another option called Hulu + Live TV. It’s important to note that, while Hulu is a service like Netflix, the Hulu library has different shows and movies than Netflix does. This is included in even the most basic Hulu plan. Users that subscribe to Hulu have access to Hulu’s library of TV shows, movies, and original content that they can watch whenever they want. It is also a “subscription video on demand” service (think Netflix). However, there are some key differences between the two services.įor starters, Hulu is more than just a live TV streaming service. Hulu and YouTube TV are both streaming services that give you access to live TV. Youtube TV screen What’s the Difference Between Hulu and YouTubeTV ![]() Basically a cracked gear or part can render a mechanism dead. Nylon parts are another issue, nylon expands (hygroscopic) and cracks. Most have two or three belts and they need replacement every 10 years or so. It all comes down to lubrication, mechanism cleanliness, adjustment and belts. Most issues with the vintage transports are mechanical, not electronic. I've got a reference Marantz (CDM-1) CD-12/DA-12 which is a lovely transport and D/A pair. The Philips based CDM-1 machines need attention (electronic) to keep going, but once that is done, they will last forever. The X7/77/777 and the transport only CDP-R1. I'm looking at this from the mechanical hardware.Īny recommendations? (Ripping my CDs for network streaming is not a valid recommendation ) There are also the high-end Teacs & Pioneers of the 90's which are built like tanks but are slow & seem like overkill if I'm using an external DAC.ĭVD-A, SACD, BD-A, DTS CD, etc support is necessary as it'll be thrown into a stereo set-up.įinal note, my honest, personal opinion is that a properly working transport shouldn't have a "sound" especially when hooked up to a DAC that buffers/reclocks internally. I was also eyeing the Cambridge CXC CD which appears to give nice CD-TEXT output on the display, but, based on videos I've seen, CD recognition/seek speeds appear average & the actual tray mechanism is made more cheaply than the older units I have on hand. Lots of random CD/DVD/BD players of misc.Game systems/PCs: Most require a TV/display to use & have extended boot times.Phillips CD303: Absolutely indestructible mechanism, reliable lasers, needs a custom SPDI/F solution with a microcontroller.Sony DVP-S9000ES: Pretty fast, fairly attractive, but known to have lasers that potentially burn out.I have a number of optical disc players lying around that I could use such as: Style points are always welcome but unnecessary. While the C801ES is a very high-quality changer model with optical digital output, it does have a couple irreplaceable parts (such as a toothed rubber belt around the metal platter that I'm just waiting to fail), I think it's time to move on to something else now that I have the help of ASR.Īnyway, does my Audio Science Review brethren have any opinions as to the ultimate CD player transport? I'm looking for a BIFL unit that is well made, uses lasers known for lasting a long time, does not use hard-to-find parts, has a nice/fast tray mechanism, & has fast CD recognition/seek speeds. It easily provided a much more pleasing CD listening experience.until the other day when I ran my LG BH200 through my Topping D50. The ol' workhorse single-handledly defeated all CD/DVD/BD players that I compared it to. I'm looking to retire my old Sony CDP-C801ES CD player for a (stereo) DAC + transport combo. |
