You only need to cover it with a bandage and apply pressure in the first few minutes for it to stop bleeding. So, no harm was done there, except for a minor bleeding that usually stops within 5 to 10 minutes. This happens by razors or wax when shaving their legs, arms or armpits. People unintentionally shave off or cut skin tags all the time without them knowing. This is why they might represent something called nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome which is a genetic condition evolving into skin cancer.Īccidentally Cutting Off Skin Tags – Should You Worry? In children, skin tags must be examined further because they are unlikely to appear. Those include basal cell carcinoma, malignant melanoma, and squamous cell carcinoma. Types of skin growths that look like skin tags but are actually more dangerous and health-harming are certain benign lesions such as neurofibromas, seborrheic keratoses, warts, common moles, and fat accumulating moles known as nevus lipomatosis.Īlso, there are certain types of skin cancer that mimic skin tags and start off as one, but later on they change into other forms, colors, and sizes. These are usually skin bumps that changed color over time and/ or are bleeding and painful. While there are skin tags which are removed without examining them prior removal with a microscope or through a biopsy, there are certain uncommon and atypical skin growths that might resemble skin tags but should be sent to a pathologist for further examination to rule off and exclude any serious skin life-threatening conditions like cancers. When Should You Consider A Biopsy For Your Skin Tags? If this happens to you, you should know that you need a skin biopsy to know what you are dealing with and how to treat it. This is rare but possible and you know it when you see your skin tags turning into tag-like bumps that grow further, change color into pink, red, brown, or black. However, there are situations where a skin tag turns into a precancerous or cancerous tag. Farrell also has several anti-ageing and cosmetic laser treatments which can be used to fade any scars so that the very best cosmetic result can be obtained.You shouldn’t worryabout tumors and cancerous skin conditions if you are a person who’s prone to skin tags, as they are noncancerous ( malignant) and don’t turn into cancerous tags if left untreated. It is usually best practice to send the specimen that is removed for analysis to confirm the diagnosis and make sure there are no abnormal changes in it. There are many different structures of the skin which can form lumps and bumps and, as a consultant dermatologist, Dr Farrell is best qualified to diagnose their precise nature and chose the best method of removing them. Any remaining mark can be faded with laser afterwards. If they have roots these can be removed by cutting out and stitching. If they are raised they can be flattened by a method called shave biopsy. They can be a cosmetic concern or catch on clothing and can be removed using local anaesthetic. The skin is composed of many different skin structures and any of these can overgrow and form benign lumps. There may be a small blister which takes a few days to heal but sometimes more than one session is needed. Freezing does not require any dressings and is a quicker procedure to do. A small dressing is applied for a couple of days. When removed by local anesthesia the skin tag is shaved down and then gentle cautery applied to the surface. Skin tags can be easily removed with local anaesthesia or freezing. However at Dermatology Consulting we can chose the best treatment for the individual patient and their type of wart. Many of these treatments need to be repeated as warts can be difficult to remove until the body becomes immune to them. In the meantime methods to try to remove warts include cream treatments such as salicylic acid or imiquimod, freezing with liquid nitrogen, sensitisation with products which stimulate the immune system (e.g. With time the body’s immune system stimulates a response to remove the wart but this can take many years. Warts are caused by the human papilloma virus. Warts, skin tags, lumps and bumps can be a source of irritation or embarrassment and can be easily treated.

Seeking socially mature players inside the ATL perimeter. Hârn has a dark reputation and is a place regarded warily by most continental Lythians for wild tales of savage men, fearsome beasts, odd folk, strange happenings, and terrible secrets men should not know, have been carried to the faraway continent and have served to discourage all but the most intrepid, adventurous, and foolhardy, of travelers. As a result of this weak connection magick on Hârn is difficult to summon and hard to control. While Hârn is steeped in magick, the connection between Yashain, the source of all magicks, and Hârn is not particularly strong. The world of Kethira is a nexus of Kelestia, the all or multi-verse, and Hârn is the place on Kethira where the veil between worlds is weakest. The local waters around the Hârnic Isles are treacherous, notoriously rough, and difficult to navigate, especially for those unfamiliar with them. Fog, drizzle, and overcast skies are the norm, hence its moniker 'The Misty Isle'. Hârn has generally cool summers and mild winters. Due to the realistic population structure, which you have to consider very carefully, as well as the different seasons and their associated effects, there are many challenges that you have to combine in a simultaneous and strategically. Hârn is a rough, hazy, forested island about 30 leagues from the northwest coast of the continent of Lythia on the edge of the Haonic Ocean on the planet Kethira.

Hârn is a wild and dangerous land, where pockets of civilization are surrounded by large tracts of savage wilderness. In addition, the 2007 model year marked the introduction of a new 32-bit computer that replaced the 16-bit unit from 2006. In addition, all models now used a 5x110 wheel bolt pattern, except the LS and LT1 which retained the 4x100 bolt pattern. Other changes include a new console, new steering wheel and new radio head unit that features an audio input jack. 2007: The 2.2 engine was retuned and now developed 148 hp (110 kW) at 5600 RPM and 152 ft⋅lb (206 N⋅m) at 4200 RPM while retaining the same fuel economy.In addition, as with most other GM vehicles that year, GM's Mark of Excellence symbol was added to both front fenders near the doors. The LS became the base model while the LT was marketed as a mid-range package the top level trim was now the LTZ. This provided performance of 0-60MPH in about 7.1 seconds and standing quarter time of 15.6s. This car was equipped with the LE5 2.4 Ecotec engine with VVT on the intake and exhaust and a 10.4:1 compression ratio developing 173 hp (129 kW) at 6200 RPM and 163 ft⋅lb (221 N⋅m) at 4800 RPM. 2006: A naturally aspirated SS was added to the lineup.This delivered lively performance of 0-60MPH in 6 seconds and a standing qtr of 14.4 seconds. With a relatively high 9.5:1 compression ratio and 12.0 PSI of boost, it develops 205 hp (153 kW) at 5600 RPM and 200 ft⋅lb (271 N⋅m) at 4000 RPM. Later in the year a Cobalt SS coupe was added to the line-up, fitted with the LSJ, Eaton M62 supercharged version of the 2.0 Ecotec engine. 2004: Initially released with the L61 2.2 Ecotec in-line 4 cylinder with DOHC and 4 valves per cylinder putting out 145 hp (108 kW) at 5600 RPM, and 155 lb⋅ft (210 N⋅m) at 4000 RPM.The engine output was increased to 155 hp (116 kW). For 2009, the United States Environmental Protection Agency fuel economy was increased to 24 mpg ‑US (9.8 L/100 km 29 mpg ‑imp) city/34 mpg ‑US (6.9 L/100 km 41 mpg ‑imp) highway with automatic transmission, and 26 mpg ‑US (9.0 L/100 km 31 mpg ‑imp) city/37 mpg ‑US (6.4 L/100 km 44 mpg ‑imp) highway with manual transmission. Weight was average in-class, at 2,681 lb (1,216 kg) for the coupe and 2,747 lb (1,246 kg) for the sedan. The wheelbase was 103.3 in (2,624 mm), longer than its competitors, and the width was 68.4 in (1,737 mm). The front suspension was independent with MacPherson struts, while a semi-independent torsion beam was used in the rear. The United States Environmental Protection Agency classified the Cobalt as a subcompact car. While the Cobalt was available as a 2-door coupe and a 4-door sedan in all markets it was offered in, the G5 was only available as a coupé in the United States while a sedan version was sold alongside the coupé in Canada and Mexico.Īs with their predecessors, all Cobalts and its Pontiac equivalents were manufactured at GM's plant in Ramos Arizpe, Mexico and Lordstown, Ohio. The G5 replaced the Cavalier-related Pontiac Sunfire. It was sold as the Pontiac G4 in Mexico for 2005–2006 and as the Pontiac G5 in Canada for its entire run (where it was briefly known as the Pontiac Pursuit and later Pontiac G5 Pursuit). Like the Chevrolet HHR and the Saturn ION, it was based on the GM Delta platform.Ī Pontiac version was sold in the United States and Mexico under the G5 name for 2007–2009. The Cobalt was available as both a coupe and sedan, as well as a sport compact version dubbed the Cobalt SS. The Cobalt replaced both the Cavalier and the Toyota-based Geo/Chevrolet Prizm as Chevrolet's compact car. The Chevrolet Cobalt is a compact car introduced by Chevrolet in 2004 for the 2005 model year. The city has renovated its athletic fields with turf and lights in recent years, adding nearly 80,000 hours of play for everyone. Park officials say that it all boils down to a lack of playfields for both youth and adults to play. NBC Bay Area’s Christie Smith spoke with local players at the field Saturday night and reports from San Francisco.

What a huge difference :O Many times contractors have put in all kinds of transformers that were just overkill when a smaller wattage transformer would have worked just fine. Using a 300watt transformer, we can power 42 7watt LED landscape lights (42 x 7watts = 294watts). Now let's say you have a LED that only uses 7watts of power and puts out the same amount of light as the 50watt halogen light bulb. If you have 6 x 50watt halogen bulbs, you need a 300 watt transformer (6 X 50watts =300watts). Too many assumptions are made and with the growing adoption of LED in low voltage outdoor landscape lighting there is a huge difference in the size of the transformer you will need to light your space. We are asked this question time and time again. And there is all kinds of junk coming in from China from people that just do not do lighting. If you have something else it is an oddball. It has been 12volts AC for over 50 years. What is the standard for Landscape Lighting Systems We do not have Malibu parts in any of our warehouses. It would also take a level of expertise to change them out. We do not know where these come from, and not sure how good they work. We also have seen some timers sold as replacements for the very old analog intermatic large units. We see some of these from time to time on Ebay and some rare parts on Amazon. There was never many parts offered except photocells that attach to the transformer. See our video so you can see the inside of the transformer yourself. The hidden battery in the digital transformers and what it means to the operation of the unit. Watch out for this on Malibu Digital Transformers We get hundreds of emails from people that purchased there and now their system will not work. They are not a lighting company and many of their sellers are just selling products they know nothing about. Watch out when buying on that huge web site that sells books, underwear and light fixtures. This digital transformer still is a 12volt AC transformer and works with all the old Malibu Lighting and any system that is 12volt AC which is about 90% of the systems out there. We have produced a video on this issue at this link. In addition, there is a problem with the control battery in the unit. No one ever sold replacement parts for these units. However, they did not stand up well if there was a lot of static electricity caused by lightning. Malibu Lighting by Brinkmann used a digital control printed on a circuit board and a core and coil transformer. You can find them at this link - Compare your unit to these to get the one that will handle the load on your system The standard is still 12volts AC and ours have the same long life as the old Malibu units. We have a transformer that is equal to that standard of long lasting performance on our website if you want to replace yours. We have seen claims that people can replace the timer, the part that is the weak link in the unit and the first part to fail. There are, to our knowledge no replacement parts for Intermatic transformers. Even the newest one out there is still about 10 years old or much older. The Intermatic low voltage transformer is a core and coil type transformer with a basic mechanical timer and together lasted for years and years. The Intermatic transformers were 12volt AC, a standard in the landscape lighting industry. We are correcting this error in the service bulletin. However, my 2010 Equinox owner’s manual shows fuse 15 as the Antilock Brake System Module fuse. Step 2 in the GM service bulletin says to remove fuse 16, the Antilock Brake System Module fuse from the engine compartment fuse block. There will potentially be too much steering resistance or centering causing tires to scrub around low speed tight turns. Some of us have been towing the Equinox without pulling any fuses. Auxiliary brake controllers should be set up to provide appropriate braking force for the given conditions and not rely on ABS, just like any other trailer. The removal of the ABS fuse is to disable the active return feature of the electric power steering to allow the wheels to steer more freely during tight turns at low speed. I wonder if removal of the ABS fuse (fuse 16) is a safety issue since many dinghy auxiliary braking systems will activate the ABS system on the dinghy when required in panic conditions. We are exploring methods that will potentially allow dinghy towing in the future.ģ. The electronic transmission shift control in the 2018 Terrain precludes dinghy towing at this time. Why is it not possible to flat tow the 2018 Terrain? Isn’t it the same as the Equinox? When using the new flat towing procedure, will the odometer accumulate mileage?Ģ.People who own a 2010 Equinox should pay particular attention to question #5. Last week GM released its revised flat towing procedure for the 2010-2017 Chevy Equinox and GMC Terrain. If Equinox/Terrain owners experience the wobble when using the revised flat towing procedure, contact John Johnston at Terrain revised flat towing.docx “We think we have a good solution.”įMCA will continue to follow this issue. Nevertheless, he said, “we’re pretty confident” that the revised towing procedure will solve the wobble problem. He said this week that although testing encompassed a variety of conditions and scenarios, engineers were unable to replicate the wobble. In July, Larry Milhalko, GM’s crossover vehicle performance manager, told FMCA that the first step in developing a fix was to replicate the wobble during testing. The 2018 GMC Terrain is not flat towable. The current owners manual for the 2018 Equinox will be revised to reflect the need for a charger, GM officials said. However, just as with 2010-2017 models, a charger will be necessary to keep the towed vehicle’s battery charged. Please read closely the attached service bulletin, which details the complete revised flat towing procedure for 2010 to 2017 Equinox/Terrain.Īs for the 2018 Equinox: GM officials say that because its electrical architecture is different, it is not necessary to pull any fuses. Another important aspect of the revised procedure: An auxiliary battery charger must be installed to prevent the battery in the Equinox/Terrain from losing its charge while the vehicle is being towed. Engineers determined that these changes should keep the vehicle’s electric power steering activated during flat towing. In the revised procedure, it is no longer necessary to remove fuse 32. The service bulletin says this about the wobble, or instability: “This condition may be caused by fuse 32 being removed from the instrument panel fuse block as outlined in the owners manual.” GM officials said a service bulletin has been distributed to GM dealerships advising them of the revised towing procedure. GM developed the new procedure to eliminate the wobble that sometimes occurs when flat towing these vehicles behind a motorhome. FMCA was notified November 1 that GM engineers have developed a revised flat towing procedure for 2010 through 2017 Chevy Equinox and GMC Terrain vehicles equipped with 4-cylinder engines.
The app also gives you a way to browse other games that support controllers without having to jump to the App Store. Since iOS doesn't have any way to navigate through your games folder with a controller, Backbone's app adds a speedy way to switch between games without having to pull your hands off the controller. In addition to a killer controller, the Backbone One also comes with a nice app where you can sift through all your games in one place, browse recommendations for other games to try, manage your recordings, and chat with other Backbone users. Rather than feeling like unnecessary bloatware, Backbone's app feels like a crucial part of bringing the console experience to your phone. There's two ports on the bottom of the controllers: The left side houses a 3.5mm headphone jack, while the right side has a Lightning port so you can charge your phone while you play (especially handy if your game of choice is a major battery-drainer). The controls themselves feel great, too: Joysticks are smooth and responsive and the buttons have a satisfying click to them without feeling stiff.īackbone has also included some unique buttons that allow you to record gameplay and open the Backbone app (more on that later). Throughout a week of testing I didn't have any issues with my phone slipping out, regardless of what angle I held the controller. The controller itself is sturdy and will keep your phone safely secured in its grip. It's worth noting, though, that you'll have to take your phone out of its case before sliding it into the One. Once you've connected your phone to the Backbone's dock connector, the left side of the controller can slide back to the edge of your phone to hold it snugly. The two rectangles are connected by two pieces of plastic that slide out to make enough space for your phone. The Backbone One consists of two Joy-Con-like rounded rectangles which house traditional gaming controls (a joystick, D-pad, four lettered buttons, and shoulder and trigger buttons) as well as some Backbone-specific functions. There are plenty of other great Prime Day controller deals, and you’ll find our favorites below.The Backbone One can house nearly any iPhone, and there's an adapter for the 13 Pro and Pro Max's larger camera bumps. When you’re done gaming for the day, you can place it on the matching dock to get it charged for your next session. It features a gorgeous red and white design along with the Blue Blur next to the D-Pad-and is now just $127 (down from $200). If you’re a Sonic fan, be sure to take a look at the Razer Limited Edition Xbox Series X Controller with Charging Stand. If you want RGB lighting effects and a slightly better design, the Wolverine V2 Chroma is down to $90. Beyond a sleek design, you’re getting remappable face buttons, mecha-tactile action buttons, and a hair-trigger mode that shortens the actuation distance for the back triggers-a feature that’s perfect for fast-paced FPS games. Typically sold for $100, you can snag it for just $51 during Prime Day. Over on Xbox, it’s hard to beat the Razer Wolverine V2 Wired Gaming Controller for Xbox and PC. Switch players who favor handheld mode can upgrade the ergonomics of the console with the Hori Split Pad Compact for $42 or Split Pad Pro with a Pokemon Legends: Arceus theme for $48. For retro gaming on Switch and PC, check out the 8BitDo SN30 Pro, which is down to only $32, and the 8BitDo Pro 2 for $48 (this one comes with a carrying case). If you like the design but don't have a Switch, you can get the 2.4GHz-only version of the Ultimate for $40 (still comes with a charging stand). It works on Switch, PC, and mobile and supports both Bluetooth and 2.4GHz wireless connections. The excellent 8BitDo Ultimate is discounted to $56. Nintendo Switch and PC owners have the most to choose from. Most of the deals are for third-party products from popular brands like Razer, PowerA, and 8BitDo. Tons of gaming gadgets are on sale for Prime Day 2023, and that includes huge price cuts on controllers for Xbox, PS5, Switch, and PC. Otherwise, this is a pretty packed area with poor loot overall. The only positive that comes from its location is that it likely means that the Ring will be close. Fuel Depot Drop Rating: C-įuel Depot is about as central of a location as is possible, which means a lot of people looking for quick drops from the dropship will head here. Really, it has everything a player should want in a Battle Royale drop. It is a non-central location, right next to the train tracks, with good loot nearby for the mid-game. This is one of the best drops in the game, much for the same reason as Refinery. Image Courtesy of Rock Paper Shotgun Overlook Drop Rating: A In the end, expect a fight, or three, when dropping here with the winning squad in good position to make a run into the late-game. But, for good reason, as the loot is typically very good here. For one, it’s also quite possibly the most popular drop spot on the new map. This is hard to rate as a single location because of its incredible size and many features. The only tough part about Lava Fissure is its distance from any other drops that can provide any kind of real loot, which drops it on this list just slightly. Of the three on this area of the map, Lava Fissure has far and away the best loot, not to mention it’s non-central location usually will allow relatively easy looting. In fact, The Train Yard is the worst place to drop on this list because of how severely poor the loot really is. In much the same vein as Drill Sire, The Train Yard is in one of the most loot-devoid areas of the map. Image Courtesy of Rock Paper Shotgun The Train Yard Drop Rating: D The cons, however, are that areas in this corner of the map don’t typically offer great loot. The pros are that looting should be relatively easy and will leave time for other squads to take each other out. Drill Site Drop Rating: C+ĭrill Site is in an area of the map that is perhaps the least popular, which has its pros and cons. Not to mention, if the dropship is far away and Refinery is out of reach, it’s usually free to loot after The Epicenter. While it looks big on the map, it’s actually a fairly small drop spot but one that provides a good vantage point to Capitol City and can somewhat kit a team. This is arguably the most aesthetically pleasing drop on the new map and the looting isn’t half bad either. While the loot here may not quite kit an entire team of three, it will usually be enough to get you started and ready to take on whoever remains from The Epicenter or Overlook, depending on which direction you’re headed. This is a great drop because it is often going to be overlooked due to its size and far proximity from a major location. Image Courtesy of Rock Paper Shotgun Refinery Drop Rating: A. If you can make it out alive, it should provide plenty of loot for the mid-game. It’s size makes it a popular one, so stick together upon dropping and try to take out whoever else decided to drop here. While there is good loot to be gained at its center, the value in this drop comes from the buildings scattered around it. Skyhook is one of the three or four largest and most popular drops in the game. Image Courtesy of Rock Paper Shotgun Skyhook Drop Rating: B+ Below is a birds-eye image of the map, for reference. To help make that ever-important decision, here is a guide to finding the best spots to land in Apex Legends, with comments about what to expect at each location. But, before players can begin exploring the exciting new map, there’s one key decision that must always be made. The new Apex Legends map, Worlds Edge, is a thrilling blend of ice and fire that looks and feels quite a bit different than the game’s first map. |
