![]() ![]() David has worked with world class players and coaches, national tennis associations and top academies, and has presented at coaching seminars around the world. He has developed a new language for one of the most complex and misunderstood aspects of the game, footwork and court movement. Next: The Reverse Spin Contact Move! Stay Tuned.ĭavid Bailey is a native Australian who has spent 15 years studying tennis at the professional level. This is what makes it a critical piece in the pantheon of high level pro movement patterns. It saves fractions of seconds when they really matter. It allows them to stay on balanced and make the most efficient possible recovery. ![]() The Mogul Move is a critical pattern in pro tennis because it keeps players from running further past the ball than absolutely necessary. When the player is moving backwards, the cross steps can be in front, but it can also be a cross step behind the body in order to facilitate the most efficient possible recovery. The Mogul Move on the forward and backward diagonals. It allows players to stay in the point and/or hitting a counterattacking shot. This is what makes the Mogul Move so effective. This contains their momentum, allows them to brake, and then change direction and move back to the center of the court as quickly and efficiently as possible. The Mogul Move allows players to control their bodies and go only one step beyond the ball. But with the Mogul Move, this movement is more controlled. When players use the Power Move, they end up going far beyond the ball. The center of gravity stays between the feet, and the hips move sideways in a straight line in the direction of the movement. In both cases, the athlete becomes briefly airborne, keeping his balance as the feet skim over the ground. I call it the Mogul Move because it resembles how skiers move on a downhill mogul run. You see all three variations used on the forehand, and both the one-handed and two-handed backhands. You also see players use the Mogul Move when they move forward or backward on an angle toward the ball or away from the ball. Briefly airborne, the players skim the court keeping and then landing on balance. ![]()

![]() ![]() He takes it horribly if someone makes you cry (don’t expect him to coddle you, he’ll try and calm you down and wipe your tears but has no idea what he’s doing), but if you’re physically injured, there’s no way that they’re making it out alive. It’s the fastest way of getting on his bad side, other than people trying to steal you away from him. He may not understand why that is, but he knows it does by your expression and he will strike. Because he quickly learns and picks up on mannerisms, ideas, concepts, words, etc., he knows what means what and what makes you upset. He becomes quite hostile and aggressive when it comes to people bashing you or your weight if it’s something that you’re self-conscious about. ![]() He’s been raised to listen obediently when given orders and he initially doesn’t understand that humans may not have gone through the same thing, resulting in him having slightly raised expectations and being a bit stern and disappointed if you don’t listen. His irritation is made fairly clear along his face and he gives a single warning, and his grip will tighten every now and again if you don’t listen. He’s quite pleased if you decide to submit to him, but if you decide to disobey him and move away from him to return to where you once were, he’s quick to yank you back to his side and hold you in place with his unnatural strength. Even then he wouldn’t be all too wordy about it, simply stating that he felt drawn to you and that it felt right to follow these feelings. Santana didn’t care to explain himself to such primitives, finding it to be unnecessary to do so unless you asked him yourself. No one was really sure what to do when the giant beast of a man easily tossed the brunette and grabbed you by your arm, pulling you to his side without missing a beat-aside from JoJo who demanded that you were released, which fell on deaf ears. Hamon didn’t stop the Pillar Man from fighting his way to you, taking the blow when the clacker volley’s thrown your way by mistake. To say that he wasn’t pleased would be an understatement and he stalked up to the brunette, gave him a single threat-laced warning, before fighting his way to you. The look he gave you was misinterpreted as him about to attack you, causing the Joestar to use himself as a human shield to block the red-haired man’s view of you. ![]() Despite his lack of care towards the humans around him, Santana’s eyes seemed to be drawn to you, a human that (forcibly or not) tagged alongside Joseph Joestar in an attempt to rescue Speedwagon from the facility they all stood within. Some even thought it to be because of some kind of deep-routed animalistic instinct, such as claiming a mate, but due to their lack of information on Pillar Men it was hard to say for sure why this was. The German soldiers tried to come up with a hypothesis as to why this extraordinary being took such an extreme liking to them, but none came into fruition and there were more questions than answers. But he did favor one human in particular, and no one really understood why. ![]() ![]() In the Contents/Plugins submenu, copy a file called Afloat.bundle and go to Library/Application Support/ in your home directory and place the Afloat.bundle in the SIMBL/Plugins directory (create it if it does not exist).I doubt that this is a permissions issue.

The proposed AMDM is used to analyze the vibration of beams using a recursive approach. ![]() The discontinuity can stem from a geometric change in the beam cross-section, a sudden material change within the beam or a sudden change in foundation material properties. The relatively efficient and accurate Adomian modified decomposition method (AMDM) is used in this paper to investigate the free vibrations of Euler-Bernoulli beams, with a single section discontinuity present, and resting on a two-parameter elastic foundation. Nevertheless, further research should clearly take age into account, and collapsing soundscape evaluations across age groups is certainly not supported by these findings. From this comparison, no hard conclusions can be drawn because different participants have been questioned at each site and there might be other underlying confounders steering these results. Conversely, for a younger population, a quiet area could be too quiet. It could be hypothesized that especially in poorer soundscapes, age becomes a more important factor in perceived quality. For site 2, however, increasing age had a stronger effect, such that people rated the soundscape significantly louder, more chaotic, less calm, and less appropriate. At site 1, only monotonous decreased with increasing age. For both sites, and in line with the literature, noise sensitivity increased significantly with age. In terms of the sound environment, site 1 was more shielded from road traffic while site 2 was next to a relatively busy city road mean pleasantness across all participants was rated as 4.5! and 3.1!, respectively, on a 5-point scale. The fraction of participants younger than 30 was 60~% at site 1, and 51~% at site 2, however, age distribution did not differ significantly between the two sites. Participants were asked to rate the soundscape in terms of eight well-known soundscape indicators (SSQP) including pleasant, chaotic, and vibrant, along with reporting the perceived loudness and soundscape appropriateness, their noise sensitivity, and age. ![]() The present study used an on-site questionnaire to measure the perceived quality of two different newly designed urban spaces (N = 103 and 438, respectively), which was analyzed as a function of participants' age. And yet, age is not systematically considered when designing and evaluating urban soundscapes.

![]() ![]() An envelope-style front flap and rose gold accents offer a sophisticated appeal, while various pockets and a TSA-approved padlock make packing and unpacking a breeze. This trolley-style bag boasts a 50-liter capacity while still being compact enough to meet carry-on requirements for most airlines. It comes in two colors (black and navy) and is lined with the brand's signature butterfly print. Backed by a five-year warranty, the durable yet lightweight design features an aluminum base and extra-thick twill polyester sides you can wipe down for easy cleaning. If you're interested in a higher-end design and can swing the steep price, the Ted Baker Albany Duffel is an excellent choice. What to Consider: It only comes in black and navy, both of which have butterfly-print lining. Why We Love It: Backed by a five-year warranty, this splurge-worthy duffel has a compact design, a spacious interior, and a sophisticated appeal. There's also a 93-liter large and a 137-liter extra-large option, though the bigger sizes will need to be checked if you're traveling by plane.ĭimensions: 23 x 11 x 11 inches | Capacity: 33 liters | Weight: 6.5 pounds ![]() Measuring 23 x 11 x 11 inches with a 33-liter capacity, the medium size passes as carry-on luggage for most airlines.

This epic and layered confrontation is a real highlight: Members of the Mason Order must seize the outer walls of the city, bomb two ships in the harbor, break down two major gates, destroy some relics, infiltrate a church, and “desecrate” a tomb by smashing it to bits. The August 2021 House Galencourt update added “The Desecration of Galencourt” map to the mix, set in the titular seat of the Agatha church. I just wish it were easier to communicate with your team. Direct combat is hugely important, but there’s a lot of strategy to gathering troops on an objective. In every case, it is overwhelming in the best way possible. Or maybe you’re just fighting in a colosseum full of traps. Maybe you’re raiding a stronghold to murder a duke. Or, you could just watch this lore trailer. All of the rich lore is implied through details in the multiplayer gameplay. There are straightforward combat scenarios where it’s all just killing, but most matches lean heavily on the push-pull of controlling objectives. It’s functionally similar to Overwatch in some ways, just on a much grander scale. After an intimidating tutorial that overviews the easy-to-learn but difficult-to-master combat mechanics, you’re thrust into big battles: 32 players join the blue-clad and gallant Agatha Knights, and another 32 join the rebellious Mason Order in red. Chivalry II is a continuation of that story told purely through large-scale battles. Even if it remains rooted in satirical history, however, that will be enough.Ģ012’s Chivalry told the story of Malric Terrowin’s Mason uprising against the Agatha Knights. I only wish it could incorporate more fantasy races, classes, or even magic. If you’ve ever wished for a game that simulates the Battle of Helm’s Deep from The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, this is it. ![]() Tripwire Interactive “Ride to ruin and the world's ending!”ĭeveloper Torn Banner Studios bills Chivalry II as “a multiplayer first-person slasher inspired by epic medieval movie battles.” Despite sounding like an over-promise, that’s exactly what it delivers. You could try burning the defenders' crops – but more often than not, the castlers beat you to the punch, harvesting and razing their own fields so enemies couldn't use them.Every charge is a terrifying experience. Starving the castle's inhabitants out didn't work, either: the soldiers inside were almost always better equipped for a long-haul camp-out than the dudes squatting in the mud outside. So, clearly, straight-up assaulting a giant stone fortress designed specifically to be unassaultable wasn't a great option. And in between the iron portcullises on either side of the main gate were things called "murder holes," which were, well, holes where people inside the castle could murder would-be invaders in all kinds of graphic and painful ways. Soldiers could drop rocks or dump boiling oil on anyone trying to climb up a ladder. Archers, meanwhile, had the literal upper hand in turrets and on ramparts. As any little pig can tell you, stone makes for damn sturdy walls, and the higher those walls reached, the less effective catapults and trebuchets were against them. ![]() ![]() VirGO.sh in a console from the new directory.
