Three landslide prevention mistakes to avoid
Lind Whisperer and 7 others reacted to le717 for a blog entry
It's safe to say that landslides occurring aren't just a fad. They're here to stay. Many are calling them the new frontier of the disaster world. With each passing year more and more Chief's are finally convinced that it's time to give landslide prevention a try. But as is always the case when launching a mining plan in a new channel, there are many pitfalls that Chief is unaware of. Because landslide prevention encompasses so many different channels, the number of possible mistakes are huge. No Rock Raider team will ever create the perfect landslide prevention campaign without making a few mistakes. But here is a look at three particularly rubble-creating mistakes and how to avoid them. Failure to enlarge for equipment For several years now mining equipment has been steadily increasing in size up to equipment for building the LMS Explorer. It's projected that within the next year, mining equipment size will surpass LMS Explorer repair equipment. Think about that for a moment. That means that more than half of the Rock Raiders working will be driving some type of enormously large mining equipment. Unfortunately, most Chiefs still haven't come to grip with this fact. Tunnels that aren't optimized for new mining equipment will have landslides occurring on half the Rock Raiders in that tunnel. Of course many of those will drive on through to collect the energy crystal they want by shoveling rubble and driving over lava. But it's impossible to know just how many new Rock Raiders Chief is not recruiting by failing to enlarge for new mining equipment. Fortunately, there is an easy solution to this mistake. GPS is a type of technology that automatically tells the Rock Raider the correct newly built tunnel to enter for the equipment being used to drive around in. Rather than having to operate one single tunnel for all traffic, GPS and new tunnels allows you the convenience of building multiple tunnels for different sized mining equipment that all lead to the same destination. No priorities When you're thinking as Chief, it's easy to just assume that Rock Raiders will know what you want them to do in the event of a landslide as a result of an order. The best orders are those that include priorities. By expressly stating what task you want the Rock Raiders to perform, you give priority and purpose to your order. While priorities are important for all mining operations, they are especially crucial for landslide prevention. A good priority will be very clear and impossible to misunderstand. Your priority should be short, demanding, and as overly detailed as possible. The right priority is often the difference between a safe reinforcement and a Rock Raider teleported safely. Failure to target area workers Most Chiefs, when asked who their intended Rock Raiders for their order was, would say, “all of them.†In an ideal world, all Rock Raiders would hear and be influenced to obey your order. But in the real world, trying to order everybody to reinforce walls through an order will result in reaching almost everybody eating sandwiches. A good landslide prevention order will be tailored for the Rock Raiders in the landslide area. Make sure you spend sufficient time choosing your desired Rock Raiders and coming to understand their incompetence and hunger cycles. With this information you'll be able to create a landslide prevention campaign that is much more likely to prevent that audience from getting covered in rubble.

Disney wants to kill us all with a movie.
aidenpons and one other reacted to Ayliffe for a topic
Disney is making a film based on "It's A Small World", a ride that makes you want to kill yourself when you ride it. If you've never ridden this ride (AKA: the lucky ones) then this is the annoying song that plays throughout the whole of the ride: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxvlKp-76io And this is the ride itself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TyoRClcG-A And Disney want to turn it into a film. No, this is not a joke. They really do.2 points -

Well, hello from rural Georgia, where a lot of people think the idea of an TFOL or AFOL is Stupid. You can get funny looks for it, and more, I less secretly love LEGO, but I'm reserved with everything else. There seems to be a white Ford F-150 truck on every street. Many think LEGO is for children who are little to play, but that is wrong, as I am a big person, and I was learned things by playing and imagining LEGO. The farmers have more sunscreen on their face than lotion. Remember that when you're in Georgia, don't go to Atlanta or Savannah if you want to share ABS plastic, go to Alabama or Tennessee to do it with others, those are some states that like LUGs and LEGO cons a bit.

Peanuts Movie - 2015
Ayliffe reacted to LimeKiller for a topic
Um. What are they supposed to look like? They look just like they do in the comic strip. I think the movie could be fantastic. We'll just have to wait and see. Also, if all you're worrying about is "ruining" Charles Shulz's style, you should know that this won't be the first time Peanuts has been rendered in 3D:1 point -

Greetings from Texas. My (former) neighbors butchered a goat in their back yard. There is a donut shop on every corner. The local barber shop is filled with taxidermied animals, and the barbers have far more hair on their chins than they do their scalps. There are fire ants everywhere outside. Have you remembered the Alamo today?1 point -
