The marble bathroom featured one of the deepest soaking tubs I've seen, a separate glass enclosed rain shower, separate toilet chamber, and a small TV screen inset into the mirror, similar to what we had at The Setai Fifth Avenue:īath amenities, as is typical for most Four Seasons properties, were L'Occitane. While we were lucky with the weather, I could imagine enjoying a cozy stay with a good film, room service, and some time by the fireplace (if drizzly out) or out on the terrace by the firepit if merely chilly, perhaps roasting some marshmellows. While as usual we didn't use the large flat screen TV or DVD player, there were a number of films, including children's favorites, available from the Concierge for complimentary use during your stay. I loved the fact that these were healthful treats of fresh fruit and cheddar popcorn, and that the fruit puree provided for my son was organic. On the desk, there were some thoughtful gourmet treats as a welcome amenity, both for me and for the munchkin. The king bed looked so inviting I would have been tempted to take a long nap, if I hadn't had the munchkin with me and had several activities scheduled for the afternoon: Here's the view, which offered great natural light even on an overcast day: We were in a Deluxe Bay View Room, which ranges from 470-660 square feet, and there was ample room for a king bed and a rollaway, lounge chair, and desk, all with a view of Elliott Bay and the Seattle Great Wheel (ferris wheel). On the left was a small table with a glass sculpture, and the in-room bar: It was late morning, and I didn't expect to be able to check-in to our room, but while the munchkin had fun enjoying a behind the scenes tour of the kitchen (and even helping to make ice cream and cotton candy!) our room was readied and we were able to go up to it soon afterwards.Įntering, we were greeted by the luxury of space. We entered the lobby, which in addition to its comfortable seating offers a cozy fireplace just to the right of reception. The doormen welcomed us and offered to assist with our bags, but since we were traveling light with just carry-ons, I thanked them and declined. ![]() Pike Place is literally one block from the hotel, and we passed it on our short walk. We had stayed the prior night at the Grand Hyatt (review coming soon), so we simply walked a few blocks to the Four Seasons Seattle, which is at 99 Union Street and 1st Avenue. ![]() While the hotel is a favorite among business travelers for its superb service, convenient downtown location and well appointed rooms, it also is incredibly child-friendly, so my son and I eagerly anticipated our stay.

It's not considered sexy to see two guys making out. Horn explains: "Let's face it, there's a double standard when it comes to guy-on-guy as opposed to girl-on-girl. In the Girls Gone Wild series, sometimes the young women kiss, while the guys' series does not have that feature. In an article, Bill Horn, spokesman for Mantra Entertainment which produced the videos, notes a gender-related double standard in these videos.

Adult entertainment franchise Girls Gone Wild And so we can write that C value as 2 root 5. Because 4 times 5 is 20, but we know the square root of 4 is 2. And I'm not sure if you're okay with just the rounded answer or you need to break that down as 4 times 5. And then you have to square root both sides. A squared plus B squared equals C squared. I'm going to call it C because a lot of people do that. ![]() ii DE bisects and ADC and iii Angle DEC is a right angle. Solution: Given, ABCD is a parallelogram. So what's the Pythagorean theorem? It's a leg squared plus leg squared equals that distance squared. In parallelogram ABCD, E is the mid point of side AB and CE bisects angle BCD. Which brings me into part B, which you actually have to do the Pythagorean theorem to figure out what this distance is. I don't know if you have to write down the units, but it would be in square units. So f rom the given f igure, B D 6x+3y8 7y 6x4y 8 x 8+4y 6 (1) Also we know that adjacent angles in a parallelogram are supplementary. W e know that in a parallelogram opposite angles are equal. And the height is, you have a right angle in here, I forgot to draw that in, is 4. Solution Verified by Toppr Given that ABCD is a parallelogram. And I'm inferring from the directions that just from this point to this point, from A to D, is 12. The area of triangle EFG is equal to 6cm and DE EF 1/3 of CD. Well it's just equal to the base times the height. Find an answer to your question In the following figure, ABCD is a parallelogram. ![]() So the first question, part A, is the area of the ABCD, which is the parallelogram. That over here is 2, going straight up is 4. I think it's well drawn and it clues you in very well on what you're doing.

Interpreting a box and whiskersĬonstruction of a box plot is based around a dataset’s quartiles, or the values that divide the dataset into equal fourths. The datasets behind both histograms generate the same box plot in the center panel. With a box plot, we miss out on the ability to observe the detailed shape of distribution, such as if there are oddities in a distribution’s modality (number of ‘humps’ or peaks) and skew. On the downside, a box plot’s simplicity also sets limitations on the density of data that it can show. It is easy to see where the main bulk of the data is, and make that comparison between different groups. They are built to provide high-level information at a glance, offering general information about a group of data’s symmetry, skew, variance, and outliers. The box and whiskers plot provides a cleaner representation of the general trend of the data, compared to the equivalent line chart.īox plots are used to show distributions of numeric data values, especially when you want to compare them between multiple groups. Points show days with outlier download counts: there were two days in June and one day in October with low downloads compared to other days in the month. There also appears to be a slight decrease in median downloads in November and December. From this plot, we can see that downloads increased gradually from about 75 per day in January to about 95 per day in August. The example box plot above shows daily downloads for a fictional digital app, grouped together by month. Lines extend from each box to capture the range of the remaining data, with dots placed past the line edges to indicate outliers. Box limits indicate the range of the central 50% of the data, with a central line marking the median value.

Tiles in these categories can be identified by a number and a theme. The first three themes have 9 categories each. These categories can be further divided into themes. If a tile has an adjacent tile located upwards or downwards from it, it still can be removed.Įach tile category contains 4 tiles, and there are 36 categories in total. In other words, in order to remove a tile, you should be able to either slide it left or right without disturbing other tiles. Also, the tiles cannot be blocked from the sides, and there cannot be other tiles on top of them. In most cases, this means that the tiles need to have the same picture on them, but there are a few exceptions to this. ![]() First of all, the tiles need to belong to the same category. In order to remove a pair of tiles, a number of conditions have to be met. There are 144 tiles, which can be removed in pairs. The objective of the game is to disassemble a pile of game pieces (tiles). In the East, the game is known under different names, such as “Shanghai” in Japan. In fact, this Solitaire game became so popular that it is often associated with the name “Mahjong” instead of the original Chinese version, especially in the West. The objective of Mahjong Solitaire is to remove all tiles from the board, according to specific rules. However, for the purposes of making a video game, the multiplayer game has been modified into Mahjong Solitaire, a game that is played by one player, which - despite using the exact same tiles as the original version - has completely different rules. It is commonly played by four players, has 144 game pieces (tiles) and is sometimes involved in gambling. Traditionally, Mahjong (or alternatively, Mah-jongg) is a multiplayer game that is popular in East Asia. Thank you so much for choosing our game and playing with us.

I needn’t have worried this is a tremendous return to form, in my opinion. So it was with some trepidation that I bought United Wire. Their consistently excellent releases up to that point, and the tremendous growth they exhibited must have spoiled me! Grind Show, while good, didn’t blow me away like every other album of theirs. They left KScope Music and released Grind Show in 2018, which was a bit of a disappointment. I should probably mention Sam Healy’s excellent solo 2013 record, Sand, which, for all intents and purposes, sounds like an NAO album to me. The Third Day maintained the high quality of their music. As a matter of fact, it was my favorite album of 2010! And rather than succumbing to the dreaded “sophomore slump”, I thought their second album, Fog Electric, was even better. Tad: Okay, Brad, I have been smitten with North Atlantic Oscillation since their debut album, Grappling Hooks. ![]() Once again, Brad Birzer and Tad Wert take some time to share thoughts on a much-loved group: With songs varying from hushed, angelic voices to dissonant-yet-attractive noise, it is another reason why NAO are unparalleled in their ability to meld disparate musical elements into a stunning and immensely satisfying listening experience. They recently released their fifth album, United Wire, and it is a triumph. This Scottish duo have created an utterly unique and beautiful sound that manages to combine Beach Boys harmonies, Radiohead melodicism, and shoegazer walls of sound. A favorite music artist of ours is North Atlantic Oscillation. Sight words are similar, except sight words typically can’t be sounded out because they don’t follow common phonetic patterns. High frequency words are common words found in English, like the or and, that kids can learn to instantly recognize so they don’t have to sound them out every time.
