Lyrical dance is often choreographed to songs about freedom or releasing emotions, such as ecstasy, grief, or jubilation over overcoming obstacles, etc. Lyrical dance is expressive it could be subtle or dynamic and is a combination of intricate, highly technical, and pedestrian/naturalistic moves. Performances in shows like Cirque du Soliel and the general acceptability of this dance form has helped in its growth. ![]() The origins of the Lyrical dance are difficult to pinpoint and seems to have been an organic development out of the entertainment world, where dancers began to mix jazz with ballet.

![]() We’re looking at opening several more locations across the county. Our EZ Tag stores have not accepted cash traditionally so we’re looking at whether you could do that at one of our storefronts. ![]() We are starting to look at, if you can’t pay cash at our toll plaza, can you pay cash at our EZ Tag stores. We’ve done some research on options that are being offered across the country. What kind of options are you considering for toll road drivers who want to pay cash? Until we address all these unbanked customers and the former cash payers, we’re not fully there.īecause it’s not just a process of removing the booths and having everyone pay through an EZ Tag or some other method, it’s about making sure all residents of Harris County can be included into our toll road and participate in our toll road. Unfortunately, if you don’t have a credit card or you’re unbanked, which could potentially be a large part of our population, we don’t want to be punitive to that segment of our county. If you do not have an EZ Tag and you used to pay coins in the past, we really want to focus on that. It’s really holistic in the customer experience. It’s somewhat all-electronic right now, but when we define all-electronic, it’s a holistic view of how we do business as a toll road. If you’re not taking cash at this point, isn’t the system essentially all-electronic right now? All that weaving leads to potential accidents, especially with the higher speeds. It’s not something we want to go into the future with. When you’ve got that starting and stopping motion at the toll booths and someone is not paying attention, that can cause some safety issues.Īs people are slowing down or getting up to speed, drivers may be distracted or fumbling for change and you may not be able to stop in time when someone is dropping coins in the toll plaza. Right now we’re transitioning to an all-electronic program. I see where some of our traveling public are wondering why the cash booths are closed and we’re funneling traffic to the EZ Tag lanes. During the pandemic and for the safety of our cash collectors, we pulled them from the roadway. For people who aren’t really familiar with the toll roads, what does it look like now and are there places where you can still pay with cash? ![]() So, now I would like to hear what you think about “the most minimalist house ever designed”. And this is exactly what makes it so special and different from other homes and why I choose it for Architecture Beast. I believe 95% of people would say they would never live in the minimalist house like this. Yes, it is a big deal when you see how valuable is in architectural aspects, but what about “ordinary people”? What would general public say about it? Is it too open? Glass walls? Too much? Probably yes. Read next: Top 50 modern house designs ever built! ![]() Now, Steve Hermann’s Glass Pavilion takes the architectural tenants of these greats and catapults these concepts into the new millennium”. Mies Van Der Rohe’s Barcelona Pavilion and Farnsworth house, as well as Philip Johnson’s glass house were these type of defining structures. Throughout the last century there has been a few great buildings that defined modernism and inspired a generation to imagine what is possible not only within architecture but as a society as a whole. It is a benchmark building that sets the bar as to what modernism is and can be. Suzanne Perkins described it the best: “The Glass Pavilion is a redefining structure within modernism. First thing that I noticed when I saw it (I believe it was 2 years ago) is that is probably inspired by the Philip Johnson‘s famous Glass House. So, let’s take a look at the design of this minimalist house. (It’s hard to say no when someone offers you a $11 million discount, right?) And as I can see on the official sale website of Glass Pavilion house, it is sold now. House was later offered with $11 million discount, for as “little” as $24 million. So, $35 million for the naked “most minimalist house ever designed”? It didn’t went quite well. Even though house has art gallery with his car collection, cars were not included in the price. Can you imagine the price? It was $30 million. Steve Hermann designed this minimalist house for himself, but somewhere along the way, he suddenly changed his mind and decided to sell it. ![]() As you can already guess, the house is built in California, precisely, in Montecito, Santa Barbara, back in 2010. Architect behind the project is Los Angeles starchitect Steve Hermann. This is the name of “the most minimalist house ever designed”. Take a look and see what makes it so different from other homes.įirst, let’s see a few facts about the project. Is it really? You will have to decide it for yourself. Do you love minimalism in architecture? Yes? No? Either way, you have to see this outstanding home which architect calls “the most minimalist house ever designed”. ![]() *Municipalities and counties are permitted to have more restrictive ordinances and 9:00 a.m.īeer and wine may be bought and sold 24 hours a day.

![]() This can be addressed with myofascial release. It takes time to separate muscles and break up adhesions Only then are you changing the structure of your body Only then will you have lasting relief.Īdhered connective tissue frequently traps groups of muscles and nerves causing pain, tightness, reduced range of motion, and/or poor posture. This is why myofascial release sessions are typically focused on a specific area. ![]() When we find where your body is stuck, we get the knots out whether it takes 5 minutes or 30. Skilled myofascial release erases years of adhesion in a single session. While this will make you feel better temporarily, in a day you will be right back where you started. Typical deep tissue does nothing but warm up the tissue, and increase blood flow. When we target adhesions, we don’t just rub them for a couple of minutes as is standard for deep tissue massage. This is the significant difference between myofascial release and deep tissue massage. However, this liquification takes a lot more time than most people realize. As a result, your body returns to a more natural, pain-free, balanced alignment. Constant steady pressure and stretching literally melts your fascia which allows your therapist the opportunity to separate muscles that should not be stuck together in an ideal world. The problem is actually in your chest and deep shoulder muscles.įascial adhesions can be permanently released by progressively stretching and compressing the fascia where it is adhered (stuck together) until a noticeable release is felt. The problem is not in your back and/or neck, that’s the symptom. This dysfunction is typically why your shoulders are rounded forward and up by your ears, and you have upper back and neck pain, including tension headaches and TMJ. However, when you put your arms down, those muscles stay stuck in that other posture, resulting in shoulder dysfunction. This adhesion makes your body more efficient at doing what you are asking it to do (you burn less fuel). Fascial adhesion is an efficiency mechanism.įor example, if you sit at a desk or in an automobile with your arms extended in front of you for eight hours a day, the muscles of your shoulder and chest will fuse together in that position. These layers of fascia develop adhesions (spots where they stick together) due to inflammation, trauma, repetitive motion, and basically what we ask our bodies to do on a daily basis. We are quite literally water balloons within water balloons within water balloons. Myofascial (my-oh-FAH-shul) release is a technique that falls under the category of massage therapy or, even more advanced, Structural Integration.Īll muscles, bones, blood vessels, nerves, and organs are surrounded by a thin layer of fibrous connective tissue called fascia. ![]() If the ammo is intended to appear in your hand, why exactly couldn't a person use the Sling as a bludgeoning device afterwards? This says to me that it's intended to create the ammo specifically in the process of attacking.Īnd a final, most obvious bit, you don't actually load anything. The ammo is only created when used for a ranged attack, so if you attempt to use a Sling that you haven't loaded as an improvised weapon (it must be loaded to deal damage) it won't create ammunition. Slings are probably the best indication of how this is intended to function. The rules for needing a free hand to load are specific to the Hand Crossbow, Sling and Blowgun. You're conflating two different sets of rules. You already use both hands to attack with the weapon, there's no need for a free hand because both are used to operate the weapon. ![]() You do know they don't have the loading property? The mechanic works differently for them from the get go.īesides, as you say, they're Two-Handed, and so are the Light and Heavy Crossbow. If the weapon draws the string for you, do you still need two hands to use a bow with the repeating shot infusion?Assuming you mean for a hand Crossbow, just for aiming and stability as above.īut if that wasn't shorthand and you do mean a regular old Bow. but if another DM decided to rule that you still needed a free hand with the repeating shot infusion then I would say it is his game and he can run it as he sees fit. However, as pointed out, the text does not say explicitly state where the ammunition is produced and does not explicitly state that the ammunition property does not apply to weapons with the repeating shot infusion. however, for the repeating shot infusion, it does not say the ammunition is created in a container or any other specific location - so from the perspective of the ammunition property, you don't need a free hand, since you don't need to pull the ammunition from a container and place it on the weapon. In addition, the ammunition property states "Drawing the Ammunition from a Quiver, case, or other container is part of the Attack (you need a free hand to load a one-handed weapon).". That's how I would run it and that is how I believe it is meant to be interpreted. The common location in any scenario is in the proper location on the weapon. The weapon could be fired, dropped, picked up by someone else and by the rules it would still produce its own ammunition. The weapon does not know where the hand of the operator is located, or even whether it is being held at all. I'd argue that if the weapon is creating its own ammunition, it would be creating it where the ammunition would be launched from. The ammunition created by the weapon vanishes the instant after it hits or misses a target." Please instead reply in the ongoing threads rather than making new ones.įeel free to add to the community resource folder and the resource list."If you load no ammunition in the weapon, it produces its own, automatically creating one piece of magic ammunition when you make a ranged attack with it.

Hours later the salesman called to follow up and he told him that I was NOT interested in buying unless I had Toyota financing at 0%. Told the salesman he had to talk to me before making a decision and came back home. The most annoying thing is that in one case my husband test drove the car and got a quote. It feels that I am being penalized for having good credit. Despite nothing saying anything about being either/or, one of the dealers insisted that I could only pay the quoted price if I use “conventional finance” vs the Toyota 0% 48 months APR. Neither the price quote breakdown said “this price includes a rebate, incentive etc”. They have claimed that I can’t take both the “rebate” or the 0% but in both cases there has been NO rebate advertised on the manufacturer’s website, neither on the dealer’s web site, neither the manufacturer says “0% offer cannot be combined with other incentives”. What about when the 0% or 0.9% comes directly from the manufacturer? I have been shopping for a car and have walked out of dealerships twice because after we have agreed on a price they then try to raise the price after I insist on Manufacturer’s financing, which I qualify for because I have Tier 1 credit. If you need help, schedule a free strategy call with an expert. Tell us in the comments if you find a dealership that honors the actual online price, we’d love to know so we can work with them! I rarely recommend negotiating at the dealership. You also need to call them to get a real breakdown of the deal, any dealer add on’s and preferably get it in writing before you even visit. Assume some added costs especially tax, title, tags. You’re doing your research, so be aware, it’s highly unlikely a dealership will honor that internet price you see. The dealerships use the internet for one thing, to find a way to get you into the dealership. In fact, the point of this post is to inform you what to look for when you’re doing your car research online. Simple as that.Ī car dealer not honoring internet price should, in this day and age, be nothing new. The dealer charged more than the advertised price. They accept it because they don’t want to go through the whole ordeal again somewhere else. When the numbers are presented, the focus is set on the payment not revealing the actual cost of the car.Ĭonsumers who spend hours at the dealership, accept the fact of the car dealer not honoring internet price. They spend their time visiting the dealership and fall in love with the car. The average consumer only sees the price of $14,840 for the car and thinks it is a great deal. Therefore, you’ll need to scroll down, open another window or find the smaller print. If they do, they are rarely out in the open. Some dealerships do not disclose these fees anywhere online. You have to actually reach out to the dealership in a lot of cases. You have to know where to look to find it. It also wasn’t quite easy for me to find the breakdown of these additional fees. That eats up the $405 dollars quick, right? What is the $2,985 in dealer fees and accessories? The keyword in that sentence is list price. The offer is $405 dollars below the average list price. This quote, from a large online lead generation tool for dealerships (and your car research site), shows that this is a great deal. Then, the car research website may even state the vehicle you’ve found (at the top of the list) is a great deal.Ĭhances are, the great deal advertised (much lower than everyone else) may not be giving you the entire picture. The price they SHOW you is not the entire picture. They simply understand the way consumers are searching and/or sorting. This is not necessarily the price they are willing to sell the vehicle for. The dealerships will set the price they want to SHOW you. I enter the make, model, trim, color, miles and any other feature needed. Just like you, I use car search sites like Car Gurus, Auto Trader, and search for the vehicles. Many dealers advertise a price they have no intention of delivering on. Regardless of what it is called (they vary from dealership to dealership), it’s simply a profit center for the dealership. Those fees are often referred to as doc fees or documentation fees. What are administration fees? They are hard to define. ![]() ![]() What better way to break the ice than with simple talking points on the latest buzz.
