Best socks for nurses12/13/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() Size range: Compression socks are meant to be tight, so if you notice that they’re not as loose as your normal socks, that’s completely normal.Most pregnant women with mild swelling will be fine with over-the-counter compression socks, but speak with your doctor if you think you need something more intense. For stronger levels of compression, you’ll need a prescription from a doctor. It will range from 10 to 15 (this is considered mild), 15 to 20 (moderate), and up to 30 (firm). Compression levels: When looking at compression socks, you’ll likely notice some language you may not be familiar with.Based on their comments, we made sure that all products selected met the following criteria: We also used feedback from parents in the What to Expect community, plus staff members, to find products that worked best for a wide range of moms. ![]() To learn what features are most important in a compression, we spoke to an OB-GYN, who advised on what to look for and avoid. It can be hard to know what compression sock will provide you the most relief, especially with so many options on the market. Read on to find out how to find the best compression socks for pregnancy. This helps improve and ease the discomfort of swelling, offering some much needed relief. The only issue? Weeding through the hundreds of options out there to find the best possible pair for you. Mild swelling during pregnancy is normal and edema, which is defined as mild swelling of the hands and feet, affects about three quarters of pregnant women.Ĭompression socks offer a tight fit that helps improve blood flow in the legs by pushing it upwards.

Story behind forsaken jayce skin12/13/2023 ![]() ![]() While we are at it, are there any forgotten skin lines you guys would like to see being revived? I for once would like to have more Arclight skins, if RIOT felt like it would be needed they could be revamped in a similar way to Highnoon, but into some sort of angelic beings with maybe some feathers on them and stuff.Įdit: Corrected some stuff, I should re-read better before clicking post. What do you guys think? Yay or nay for more skins of this theme? Wukong with a dual blade red lighsaber and some sort of demonic or alien look instead of the typical monkey, obvious Darth Maul reference, and because in the regular lore Wu is Yi's studend, in this universe's lore Forsaken Wukong could be an ex-student of Chosen Yi Īnd there are plenty of other champions out there that could fit, any ADC with a gun, mages using the force like Syndra and Orianna that control their balls with magic, in this case the force, any champion with a sword or bladed weapon can fit too. Jhin with a white armor, helmet and a blaster gun/sniper, referencing a Storm Trooper, or with a silver armor to reference Captain Phasma, or The Mandalorian ![]() Graves with a blaster gun, he could be a reference to Han Solo, I mean he fits perfectly Graves is already a sort of pirate anyway Shen with some tan/brownish robes, no mask, maybe just a scarf around his neck/mouth because he always has a mask, but with short hair and as a reference to Obi-Wan, the scarf could reference the time he spent on Tatooine plus Obi-Wan possessed 3 different lightsabers throughout his life (well two of them look the same, but he also wielded Qui-Gon's lightsaber during the fight with Maul), with Shen having 3 different swords kinda fits, the big sword which belonged to Shen's father in that skin could be a green lightsaber as a reference to Qui-Gon's lightsaber, and the short sword be his last blue lightsaber, the spirit sword could reference his first blue lightsaber which he lost in that same fight with Maul Ryze with black robes (similar to the Jayce ones) and his abilities have red and purple-ish VFX kinda like Force Lightning, as a reference to Palpatine Also, considering there exists a skin called Forsaken Olaf, just like Jayce, maybe when Olaf eventually gets a VU it might be changed to that Sith theme aswell.Īnyway, what I wanted to say is, would you guys like to see more of these? For some reason RIOT stopped doing them, but I personally do like them a lot and I'm not even a huge Star Wars fan, I just kinda like it. Swamp Master Kennen is kind of an obvious reference to Yoda aswell, the looks plus the name seems to be refering when Yoda was on Dagobah. Chosen Yi and Forsaken Jayce, respectively referencing a Jedi and a Sith. Sorry for the rant but I have been needing to type this insane response for a while now xD.As most of you may know we have some skins in LoL that are references to the Star Wars franchise. ( To those unaware I personally took the time and made a chroma of every color for FMJ / Debonair / Forsaken Jayce and it took very little time with proper knowledge) Which just amazes me to why its not in the game currently. I wish riot would release chromas for either FMJ or Debonair at the very least if they don't plan on releasing a skin because the value alone from them was so nice to see and use. But because of Forsaken Jayce's Q being different it can at times be misleading when you fire your Q because the hitbox is actually smaller than what the particles show.ĭebonair Jayce : Honestly between FMJ and Debonair I personally enjoy using this Jayce skin the most simply because of how clean the style of the skin is with how smooth it plays in-game.īrighthammer Jayce : I take back what I said about FMJ potential because they really fked up here, I understand the theme of the skin but felt this skin has no real identity in how it portrays Jayce if that makes sense. but if you aren't familiar with playing Jayce the skin can feel a bit "clunky" because of the textures being bigger as hes In A metal suit and feels bigger than the base skin.įorsaken Jayce : I love the theme of the skin and it would honestly be my favorite skin if it wasn't red as the particles to this skin are actually unique where as FMJ / Debonair / Brighthammer share ability particle effects. ![]() Full Metal Jayce : Had the most potential In my opinion (WHY NO CHROMAS RIOT). ![]() Dd expert set pdf12/13/2023 ![]() While it’s important to do things the long way to really understand D&D’s larger systems and how characters can maximize their abilities, you might just want to hand out pre-generated characters the first few times out. Know also that character generation can be both time consuming and complex. ![]() The Yawning Portal, a famous tavern from the city of Waterdeep, as depicted by WizKids. Someone who doesn’t have much experience with mechanically complex games might prefer a fighter over a wizard, since spellcasters have to keep track of more rules. A shy person might not want to take on the role of a bard or a rogue who would normally spend a lot of time talking. The character each person plays can also have a big impact on how much they enjoy the experience. That will help ensure people aren’t upset by potential plot elements or descriptions of what can be at times visceral action. You can also use the lines-and-veils system (first developed by Ron Edwards for his book Sex and Sorcery), which suggests setting “lines” that will never be crossed and “veils” for subjects that can be briefly glimpsed or referenced but not dwelled upon. Since role-playing games involve people acting like their characters and expressing their emotions, these types of tools can also help make it clear whether someone is actually angry or scared or if they’re just acting and having a great time. One good way is to start by using simple safety tools, like John Stavropoulos’ X-Card, to make sure none of the players feel uncomfortable during the course of the game. When organizing a game, it’s a good idea to start with a “session zero” just to make sure everyone knows what to expect. The most important rule of Dungeons & Dragons is to make sure everyone at the table (virtual or physical) is having a good time. Out of the Abyss - An underground adventure with high stakes.The Wild Beyond the Witchlight - D&D for theater kids.Baldur’s Gate: Descent Into Avernus - Go to hell, and enjoy the ride.Waterdeep: Dragon Heist - An elaborate heist set in a major city.Curse of Strahd - A horror-themed adventure starring an iconic villain. ![]() You can use something as simple as Google Meet or Zoom to get started of course, but VTTs like Roll20, Foundry, Fantasy Grounds, One More Multiverse, and others can replace the need for physical maps, dice, and character sheets entirely - even when playing in person. Spurred on by the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a whole ecosystem of virtual tabletops (VTTs) that can allow you to play remotely - with or without video or voice chat. You can also find games using platforms like StartPlaying, which connect would-be players with professional game masters.īut the fact is, you don’t need to meet in person with the other players at all. D&D’s publisher, Wizards of the Coast, has an event locator that you can use to find a friendly local game store where you can drop in and try the game regardless of your experience level. Luckily, there are plenty of resources to make it easier to find like-minded would-be heroes. ![]() While D&D is often best played around a table, gathering your best friends at home together isn’t always practical. The best way to truly experience D&D is to play it yourself Polygon’s guide is designed to help get you started. The game’s long history and books full of rules might seem intimidating, but its popularity makes it easier than ever to get an adventure going. It provided the language and the lore for Netflix’s Stranger Things, inspired the mystery at the heart of the novel Ready Player One, and was adapted into the major motion picture Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves.īut while stories of flawed heroes coming together in the face of terrible odds makes for great media, the best way to truly experience D&D is to play it yourself. ![]() It’s the game that gave birth to actual play, a format that inspired the likes of Dimension 20, The Adventure Zone, and Critical Role and its The Legend of Vox Machina animated series. Since then, it’s served as the inspiration for countless daring adventures - and, arguably, entire genres in the video game industry. The story of Dungeons & Dragons, the iconic tabletop role-playing game, began in 1974. An unrepentant min-maxer, she has played and run games on the Critical Hit podcast.

With the discovery of nuclear fission in 1938, it was quickly realized that, if a fission event produced neutrons, each of these neutrons might cause further fission events, in a cascade known as a nuclear chain reaction. In the decade after the neutron was discovered by James Chadwick in 1932, neutrons were used to induce many different types of nuclear transmutations. The neutron is essential to the production of nuclear power. They are a primary contributor to the nucleosynthesis of chemical elements within stars through fission, fusion, and neutron capture processes. Neutrons are produced copiously in nuclear fission and fusion. Neutrons are required for the stability of nuclei, with the exception of the single-proton hydrogen nucleus. With their positive charge, the protons within the nucleus are repelled by the long-range electromagnetic force, but the much stronger, but short-range, nuclear force binds the nucleons closely together. The properties of an atomic nucleus depend on both atomic and neutron numbers. ![]() Some elements occur in nature with only one stable isotope, such as fluorine Other elements occur with many stable isotopes, such as tin with ten stable isotopes, and some elements such as technetium have no stable isotope. For example, carbon, with atomic number 6, has an abundant isotope carbon-12 with 6 neutrons and a rare isotope carbon-13 with 7 neutrons. Neutrons do not affect the electron configuration, but the sum of atomic and neutron numbers is the mass of the nucleus.Ītoms of a chemical element that differ only in neutron number are called isotopes. The number of neutrons is the neutron number. The electron configuration is determined by the charge of the nucleus, which is determined by the number of protons, or atomic number. The chemical properties of an atom are mostly determined by the configuration of electrons that orbit the atom's heavy nucleus. Protons and neutrons are not elementary particles each is composed of three quarks. Their properties and interactions are described by nuclear physics. Since protons and neutrons behave similarly within the nucleus, and each has a mass of approximately one dalton, they are both referred to as nucleons. Protons and neutrons constitute the nuclei of atoms. , which has a neutral (not positive or negative) charge, and a mass slightly greater than that of a proton. ![]() The neutron is a subatomic particle, symbol < 1.8 ×10 −26 e⋅cm (experimental upper limit) Forces between quarks are mediated by gluons. The color assignment of individual quarks is arbitrary, but all three colors must be present. ![]() Swinsian add keyboard shortcut12/13/2023 ![]() I was looking for a Winamp alternative and Swinsian is it.

The HEX color notation (short for hexadecimal) has perhaps been the most popular way to represent colors on the web and in design tools over the years. The letters can be capitalized or not, it makes no difference. TL DR → The HEX color notation is a shorthand for RGB and is coded as #RRGGBB, where each color channel is represented with two hexadecimal digits from 0 to F: 00 for 0 and FF for 255. These different notations can become especially handy when composing colors using CSS variables. 15) and we can also use a notation that omits the commas: rgb(255 186 140) and with that comma-less notation the alpha value can also be passed-in like this: rgb(255 186 140 /. For example, it's now possible to specify the alpha value without using RGBA: rgb(88, 17, 213. You're likely already familiar with how to specify a color using the RGB color notation, but you may be less familiar with additional syntax for it that has been introduced mainly with the CSS color module level 4. Additional notations like HEX and HSL are just different ways of specifying colors in the sRGB color space. The RGB color notation (short for red, green and blue) is really the basis for color on the web currently. The notation looks like this: rgb(44, 233, 77) and opacity can also be specified using RGBA: rgba(44, 233, 77. TL DR → The RGB color notation represents each color channel (red, green and blue) with a value between 0 and 255. In total, these notations give access to 16,777,216 colors. These notations are simply 3 different ways to specify a color, and any of these 3 doesn't give you access to any additional colors. Using color on the web, whether this is via CSS, HTML or JavaScript, is done using a color code notation like RGB, HSL or HEX. □ This tool is made possible thanks to iro.js and chroma.js, two awesome JavaScript libraries to play with colors. ![]() ![]() Tints consist of the original color mixed with various degrees of white, shades mix the color with various degrees of black and tones are a mix of the colors with various degrees of neutral gray.įor more color palettes, check out pppalette, a simple color palette generator and hhhue, a curated collection of color palettes. This can help refine the color, or help build a cohesive color palette for your web design projects. ✨ For the selected color, you also get color palettes with tints, shades, tones, warmer colors and cooler colors. So for example, if you're looking to convert rgb to hex, or hex to hsl, this tool will help you do just that. □ I also wanted to make it easy to copy and convert the color values in different formats like RGB(a), HSL(a), hex or 8-digit hex (with alpha), so that as web designers we can stop finicking around with formatting our color values and can get on to what we do best. □ I wanted to create a color picker for CSS & HTML that's clean and elegant, without clutter and where we see a large preview of the selected color. ![]() Alternative to winzip for mac12/12/2023 ![]() ![]() ZIP Doc allows users to download any files contained in the ZIP file to their device or to Google Drive™.

That even beats vanishing into the blue with dolphins! While some of you might think about this underwater cemetery as outrageous, I rather like the idea of spending time under water even after my death, surrounded by fish, as part of a large, coral reef helping with the protection of marine species, peacefully resting, while eagle rays cruise above. To the cement shape, a plaque made of copper and bronze mix is also added, and this, much like a gravestone, states the person’s name, date of birth and death, and epithet. Other shapes can also be made, depending on your wishes. One may choose from a massive, and equally expensive, lion statue, to a much more subdued small memorial stone in the shape of a starfish. ![]() Many options are available, of varying price ranges, for graves in the Neptune Memorial Reef.

Would you like to book a dive? You can find their contact details here There are seven dive operators who can take you on a dive tour through and over the Memorial Reef. Would you like to dive into Neptune Memorial Reef before your time has come? This underwater cemetery is a new, improved option for those who would usually wish to be cremated and then have their ashes scattered at sea. Gates, plaques, statues, benches, and pathways make the reef seem like a cemetery or memorial ground. Throughout the reef, memorial stones are placed in memory of those who have passed on, and the cremated remains are mixed with cement to form the various features of the reef system. Though the site has been open to divers and boats, no fishing of any kind is allowed because it doubles as a haven for marine life within the reef and as an excellent unusual dive spot. ![]() The original plans for the site were to create a sort of “Lost City of Atlantis,” but when costs got to be too high, developers came up with the idea of an underwater graveyard instead.Īfter a tedious process, the plans for Neptune Memorial Reef were approved by the EPA, DERM, NOAA, Florida Fish and Wildlife, and the Army Corps of Engineers in 2007.ĭesigned to withstand the toughest hurricanes and storms, the reef has begun to show more and more coral formations over the years since it was developed.

So went the dream, before I came across this even better option! In the rare occasion, I think about the remote possibility of me going to die one far away day in the far away future I have this romantic idea about just not returning from a dive, quietly slipping away into the nothingness, possibly accompanied by a dolphin (Think Jean-Marc Barr as Jacques Mayol in “The Big Blue”). For me, it is such an unlikely thing, which I rarely consider my mortality, or even worse, that of my loved ones.
