I've hit volume 2, time to readjust some things. They are not considered canon, though they contained (at least as of the time of their creation) possible spoilers for the main narrative more to the point, they are to be considered stories that people tell about Agatha. Phil and Kaja Foglio (who together make up Studio Foglio) are bad at keeping websites related to their Girl Genius webcomic, aside from the comic website itself, up to date, or even functional. This was a joint project between soundboz and I, so don't give me all the credit just cause I'm posting it teehee. Radio Play and Radio Theatre refer to a collection of tales created by Studio Foglio and set in the Girl Genius universe.

Most of these X-ray focusing devices are well-suited for moderate X-ray energies, but for higher X-ray energies (>30 keV), they lose efficiency because the refractive index decrement, δ = 1−n ~ 10 −6, is small and scales as 1/E 2, where E is the X-ray energy. These optics all have specific advantages and disadvantages depending on the experiment and employed X-ray energy. However, there are today several types of optics for X-ray focusing utilizing different techniques including Kirkpatrick–Baez (K–B) mirrors 3, 4, 5, capillary optics 6, compound refractive lenses 7, Fresnel zone plates 8 and multilayer mirror optics 9. As the refractive index of most materials is close to unity in the X-ray range, focusing X-rays is challenging. X-ray microfocusing techniques for probing small sample volumes are important for a broad range of synchrotron radiation applications 1, 2. The coupling of sagittally bent Laue crystals with K–B mirrors provides a useful means to focus high-energy synchrotron X-rays from a bending magnet or wiggler source. PDFs of n-Pt and nano Au (n-Au) under quasi-hydrostatic loading to as high as 71 GPa indicate the existence of substantial reduction of grain or domain size for Pt and Au nanoparticles at pressures below 10 GPa. PDF data for nanocrystalline platinum (n-Pt) were collected at 12.5 GPa with a single 5 s X-ray exposure, showing that the in-situ compression, decompression and relaxation behavior of samples in the DAC can be investigated with this technique. A focused beam of moderate size (10–15 μm) has been achieved at energies of 66 and 81 keV. The optical system is able to provide a clean, high-flux X-ray beam suitable for pair distribution function (PDF) measurements at high pressure using a diamond anvil cell (DAC). We report development of micro-focusing optics for high-energy x-rays by combining a sagittally bent Laue crystal monchromator with Kirkpatrick-Baez (K–B) X-ray focusing mirrors.

Obviously, the 48-inch ride height and the fact it is still a pretty grown-up coaster mean it’s far from the family ride category, but it’s great for kids who are ready to ride a big Coaster without throwing them on the large and lairy Electric Eel or Towering Emperor, that will probably scar them for life! There are no large drops or really intimidating elements it’s just a fun fast romp around the park!Īll in all, this makes the coaster a pretty Family-Friendly Ride. The Coaster only reaches a top speed of 43 mph, but it feels a lot faster than the quite low top speed feels The LSM Launches are fast but not savagely so. There are no inversions just steep banked turns, airtime hills, and a few head-choppers. The Ride is quite long, around two minutes and over 2,800 ft in length giving really good value for money. The cars are styled moderately to look like a manta ray, but it’s a pretty abstract form! There are 5 cars per train, so 20 riders in total. Seating is 2 across with 2 rows per car, with the rear seats elevated to help see over the riders in front. The Train layout is fairly standard, it’s a seated coaster with secure lap bars. Despite being an older ride the LSM Tech of Manta is far more advanced than Arctic Rescue’s Tyre Drive Launch. It uses LSM Technology to launch the coaster out of the station for the first track run, before utilizing a second LSM Launch halfway around for a second kick, doubling the ride length and giving an almost 2-for-one experience. The Manta is a Twin Launched Steel Rollercoaster. It still offers some real thrills though, and probably ranks a 3 out of 5 on the scare rating! What is Manta Younger kids and less brave adults can still jump on and ride as the focus is on fun rather than white knuckles. It is far from the scariest ride but its long length, smooth ride, and fun ride elements make it a really fun experience. After the ride begins to run out of steam you reach the second Launch that again thrusts the train off over another section of banks and hills. As you accelerate into the bright California Sunshine the rides banks hard then over a series of Air time Hills, head slicers, and other tight banks. The Ride Starts off indoors with a short Preride Show before firing you out of the underwater cave Shotgun style (very reminiscent of a Dive Site we frequent in Maui, Hawaii). There are strict restrictions on building heights in the San Diego Bay Area and the ride was designed to overcome these while still being exciting and thrilling. The Manta is still a really good coaster, the launches feel a lot faster than the measly 42mph advertised and the track layout is really fun with plenty of steep banks and good airtime. Whereas the Electric Eel’s intimidating appearance and boisterous display of might as it thunders through the loading station, has more timid guests tuning and running (literally), And Emperors towering vertical plunge is not for the faint of heart, The Manta has a much more inclusive feel. Additional Info – Twin Launch coaster, covering 2,835ft at over 42 mph.Our Manta SeaWorld San Diego Roller Coaster Review takes a deep look a the Coaster to see how good of an attraction it is and if the ride is worth the visit to SeaWorld San Diego or if you should spend time queueing when there. Its large track layout takes in large swathes of the park making it an unmissable part of the park’s layout. The Large coaster features double launches and steep backs without actually inverting riders, making this a fairly low-thrill ride perfect for large numbers of people not daring to ride more aggressive thrill rides. As part of the Park’s rejuvenation plans the Coaster was added to the park to spice up the line-up and start getting guests back into this once jewel of the SoCal Amusement Park Crown. Manta was added to SeaWorld San Diego back in 2012. You may need to cover it in foil, or use a pie crust shield, about half-way through cooking to keep the topping from getting to brown.Īnd don’t be afraid to really pile those apples into your crust–the filling will shrink considerably during cooking and cooling and you’ll be glad you did!īe sure to save this Apple Crumble Pie recipe to your favorite Pinterest board for later. Keep an eye on the crust and topping too. Turn the dough over into a 9-inch pie plate coated with cooking spray, and remove the remaining layer of plastic wrap. Remove the top sheet of plastic wrap from the pie dough. It’s always a good idea to put a cookie sheet under your pie to catch any filling that bubbles over the sides. Place the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes so it becomes slightly firm and uniform. It’s so much quicker than peeling and slicing all those apples by hand, not to mention, more fun! If you don’t have an apple peeler/corer/slicer, I highly recommend getting one.Įven if the only thing you ever use it for is making apple pie. I like to use Granny Smith apples, but any firm, tart variety will do. Once you’ve got the crust taken care of, this is a pretty quick, simple recipe. And I’m here to tell you that there is no shame in it.īut if you actually enjoy making pie crust, you should definitely go the homemade route. I rarely make pies that require a pastry style crust, and when I do, I go often out and purchase a frozen crust. Homemade crust is just too much when you’re baking with a nine year-old. When it was my nine year-old’s turn to help plan the menu and prepare dinner and he requested apple pie, I knew we’d be making a version with a streusel-style topping. We adapted our recipe from Mel’s Kitchen Cafe and tried to make it even simpler.APPLE CRUMBLE PIE - Traditional apple pie filling topped off with a pecan and brown sugar streusel. We opted for an apple crumble pie since we prefer the crumble taste over the lattice-style pies, and it turned out to be super tasty, with the perfect balance of sweet and tart. Oh well! We ended up sampling some apples and took some home for free! I chose a mixture of sweet and tart apples, which works out perfectly if you want to bake apple pie. But it felt a little awkward being there since almost everybody there had a kid in tow. Oops! I had Begad come with, thinking it would be a cute and fun thing for us to do as a couple. Fun fact: I actually volunteered at the same apple festival back in high school when I needed to rack up those community service hours.īut because that was 6+ years ago, I forgot how kid-oriented the activities were. So of course, we swung by to check it out and see if we could pick up some fresh, local apples. It just so happened that there was an apple festival going on nearby. Coat with lemon juice (optional but suggested.) Mix white sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg (optional) and sprinkle over apple slicesmix to coat. Peel and slice 4 large or 5-6 medium apples to make 5-6 cups of slices.
