![]() The existing TIDE LRT was always envisioned as a starter line, destined to be expanded throughout the Hampton Roads area. And hopefully this is a starting point for the line to get up to the Naval Base. Directly serving both a hospital and a mixed use area with hotels would provide a year-round source of ridership. Instead it would be a more circuitous route that continues the line beyond its current Newtown Road endpoint on the border of Norfolk and Virginia Beach. ![]() It was assumed that The TIDE would have gone right up Military Highway from the station of the same name (located approximately where the point of the blue arrow is) to the redeveloped mall area at Military Circle. The map helps one to better understand the route. Hampton Roads Transit presented its vision for the expansion of The Tide - Norfolk’s light rail system - to city councilmembers at a retreat Friday. HRT presents vision for Norfolk light rail extension Hampton Roads Virginian-Pilot, Norfolk, VA, 3/4/22: My fear is that this too gets studied to death for two years and eventually goes the way of the others. It's more likely the two routes would interline between the Military Highway station and downtown, with the less possible alternative (and one they might adopt during off peak hours) being a shuttle service with forced change of trains at that station. How they hook it into the original system could be interesting - given that the starter system makes a stop at Military Highway already. Sure there's a shopping mall en route, and they say that this too could eventually work its way to the Naval Base. Now a new consolation prize is raised, a line up Military Highway. Back to the western extension to the Naval Base, I figured this one had a better chance given the year-round nature of the potential ridership. ![]() Although Virginia Beach is more than just the beach in fact it's a rather large city in area in its own right. While I had felt that light rail to the Waterfront was a no-brainer, I suppose a major factor working against that is the seasonal nature of a beach resort. ![]() I was hopeful for this, and now it's the second failure in as many years, with the first being the No-Go on the Virginia Beach extension. ![]()

So let’s first crossjoin the two tables and see the results. However, there is an operator in DAX which generally generates more rows than its source tables – CROSSJOIN (except when any one of the participating tables has only one row). I will be using DAX Studio for writing my queries and displaying the results (though you might as well as use this in SSMS or in the DMX query editor for SSRS depending on your purpose).Ģ) The first thing to understand here is that DAX, as a query language, can not add rows usually, and UNION requires that we get more rows (since it is the combined result of both the tables). The result should be 7 rows as shown belowįollow the steps below for the solution:-ġ) Import the two tables to PowerPivot (you can also use this technique on a SSAS tabular model). There are just two columns in the tables – country and state and we need to do an UNION operation on these two tables. Well, since difficult is such a subjective word, I decided to jot down the technique, maybe it might seem easy for you guys!įor the purpose of this demonstration, I am using two tables having identical structures. A particularly eye-catching thing in my post was the use of Microsoft Query instead of DAX Query to obtain the required reverse-linked table and one of the reasons I gave was that it was difficult to do an UNION operation using DAX queries (yes, you heard it right. In one of my previous posts – Row Selection Using Slicers in PowerPivot – Part 1, I had demonstrated the use of what Marco Russo defined as Reverse Linked Tables and Linkback tables. ![]() ![]() To split a clip, move the playhead to a point in the file. Use the trimming and split editing features of GarageBand to select the part of the song you want to hear. Remember, ringtones have a maximum duration of 30 seconds. To delete a track, tap on it to select it and tap again to show the context menu. You can now delete the placeholder noise you made earlier, leaving you with just the desired music track.

The spacecraft - which is the size of a compact car - was destroyed, but the collision was documented by a small satellite called LICIACube that trailed behind. The space rock - which is some 6.5 million miles from Earth - holds no threat to the planet, but is a perfect subject to test a new system that could knock a dangerous asteroid off course, scientists say.ĭART smashed into Dimorphos and successfully knocked it out of its 12-hour orbit, scientists say. “A giant leap for humanity in the name of planetary defense.” “We have impact!” one of NASA news editor’s Samson Reiny said in the live video. in an event that was live streamed by the space agency on its website.

A series of maneuvers beginning in July 2023 will bring OSIRIS-REx even closer, to 155 miles (250 kilometers) off the surface, close enough to release its sample capsule for a precision landing-via parachute at the Air Force's Utah Test and Training Range in the Great Salt Lake Desert. Following this course adjustment, OSIRIS-REx would pass about 1,367 miles (2,200 kilometers) from Earth. Last month's maneuver was the first time the OSIRIS-REx team changed the spacecraft's trajectory since it left Bennu on May 10, 2021. ![]() "We have to cross Earth's orbit at the time that Earth will be at that same location." Wibben works closely with the Lockheed Martin team in Littleton, Colorado, that flies the spacecraft. To ensure a safe delivery, "Over the next year, we will gradually adjust the OSIRIS-REx trajectory to target the spacecraft closer to Earth," said Daniel Wibben, trajectory-and-maneuver design lead with KinetX Inc. "Angled too low, it will burn up in Earth's atmosphere." "If the capsule is angled too high, it will skip off the atmosphere," said Mike Moreau, OSIRIS-REx deputy project manager at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. The delivery itself, however, is not a simple parcel drop on Earth's front doorstep: NASA's OSIRIS-REx-formally the Origins Spectral Interpretation Resource Identification Security-Regolith Explorer-must approach Earth at a precise speed and direction to deliver its sample return capsule into Earth's atmosphere. ![]() ![]() ![]() "These are big, apparently docile, herbivorous animals," Gunton said. A scene in the "Deserts" episode highlights how animators used this approach to show viewers the unexpected: two sauropods in the genus Dreadnoughtus wrestling and stabbing each other with deadly looking arm spines. Gunton described their approach as being like "Sherlock Holmes," pulling together information from various sources and threading it together with the help of scientific advisors. The appearance, motion and behavior of the dinosaurs were inspired by evidence from paleontology, contemporary biology and other scientific disciplines such as biomechanics - the study of biological structures and mechanisms that control how animals move. The visual effects team designed the dinosaurs on computers, starting with skeletons based on fossil scans, and then adding muscles and skin. The crew didn't just have cameras and stand-in models they were also equipped with laser-shooting light detection and ranging (lidar) scanners for modeling environments, and high dynamic range (HDR) imaging equipment to measure light, enabling visual effects specialists to recreate natural environments and lighting in 3D space when adding the CGI dinosaurs.Ĭarnotaurus in the "Forests" episode of “Prehistoric Planet.” (Image credit: Apple TV+) (opens in new tab) rex 'cause he would eat them!" executive producer Mike Gunton said at the press tour.

"Just because there are no animals there to film doesn't mean you don't go through hardships," Walker said. Some animals were far too big to be puppets or cutouts - imagine walking through the desert carrying enormous, long-necked sauropods made out of cardboard - so the team used long boom poles and drones to capture the eye-line and scale of really giant creatures. These dino stand-ins were a point of reference for the filmmakers and special effects team, enabling the creators to see how much space the animals would take up and how they would move in their environments. The film crews traveled to these locations and used life-size physical objects, such as cardboard cutouts and 3D-printed puppets, as stand-ins for the long-extinct dinosaurs. From searing deserts to lush jungles, the habitats that dinosaurs called home often still exist in some form today. ![]() ![]() ![]() These are definitely summer’s must have drinks.
