![]() ![]() Until the closure for renovations, the locomotive was used for occasional steam runs up the mountain, as the railway switched to diesel-electrics, which is still the preferred method today.Īccording to the Gazette, the Broadmoor Pikes Peak Cog Railway, purchased three new engines, nine passenger cars and cog-rail and snow removal systems as part of the $100 million rehabilitation of the railway. 4 is the only operational locomotive from the original six that were built by the Manitou and Pikes Peak Railroad Company. Even if the couplers did fail when being pushed, the locomotive’s weight would prevent the car from pushing both down the mountain. If the coupler failed, there would be a runaway car full of passengers hurtling down the mountain. This is a safety feature in case of coupler failure. The locomotives are also unique because they push the passenger cars from behind as they ascend the mountain. Adhesion engines are designed for railroad grades of less than four percent, while cog railroads can handle grades up to 25 percent. Regular adhesion railroads are different, using weight and pressure against the rails to go along. As the engine moves, the cogs work with the track system like a zipper. The two sets of cog wheels are staggered and offset from each other as they go into the rack rail, which sits in the center of the track. The angle keeps the boiler more or less horizontal on the steeply graded track. The grade was so steep, the boilers were angled and a geared cog wheel and track system provided traction for the climb. The Manitou and Pikes Peak Railroad Company went on to build six steam engines for the railway. On Ja specially built steam locomotive made the first 8.9-mile passenger ascent to the top of the 14,115 foot-summit of Pikes Peak carrying a church choir from Denver. The difficult endeavor claimed the lives of six workers as the blasted their way up the mountain. In 189 the Manitou & Pike’s Peak Railway Company was founded and track construction began. After a long two-day ride, Simmons came up with a plan to make the trip easier. In the late 1880s, Zalmon Simmons, inventor and found of the Simmons Beautyrest Mattress Company, road to the summit of Pikes Peak on a mule.

The clerk asks for her telephone number to call her when he receives the pencil but Elaine gives him Jerry's number instead. Written by: Spike Feresten, Darin Henry, and Mark Jaffe. Later, out of guilt, she agrees to go out with the clerk. ![]() Stars: Jerry Seinfeld, Michael Richards, Jason Alexander, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Len Lesser (as Uncle Leo), Wayne. ![]() Knight (as Newman), John O'Hurley (as Peterman), and Jonathan Pennter. Jerry learns that his current girlfriend, Margaret (Marita Geraghty), formerly dated Newman, who ended the relationship. Jerry cannot comprehend why Newman dumped someone so clearly "out of his league" in terms of beauty, so he attempts to find any fault in his girlfriend. Kramer plays golf with an ex-Major League Baseball player, who cleans his ball on the second shot (not on the green), breaking the rules and causing an altercation with Kramer. When she handed Elaine the big salad, she said 'youre welcome'.The script for this episode is included with the gift set for Seasons 1, 2, and 3.This is the first episode to use the New York Street set.The man is later suspected in the murder of a dry cleaner, and Kramer helps the man to see his pet fish by driving in his white Ford Bronco in a low speed chase down the New Jersey Turnpike. The scene where Jerry confronts Newman in his apartment contains an Easter egg nod to actor Wayne Knight's involvement in the film Jurassic Park a year earlier: Newman has blankets covered with various dinosaurs, referencing his role as Dennis Nedry in the film. At Elaines request, George purchases a big salad to go for her from Monks, but Georges girlfriend Julie (Michelle Forbes) appears to take credit for.The proper thing to do would to not say anything or to acknowledge George paid for it. SimonSaysCook Ha! Haven’t logged on or tweeted in forever but so happy to see this! It’s a fact, beverages do tast… twitter.The ending scene featuring a high-speed chase is actually footage from the O.J. Something about the handle and that connection to the maker. Say hi on SimonSaysCook So very happy to know that □.Lettuce of your choice (romaine, red leaf, whatever).As for what goes into it, my roommate is a creature of habit and likes his Bachelor Salad a certain way, the beauty of it is that there are no rules, you just need an open mind and a big bowl! Since it is a Big Salad, it takes time to prepare, but it is worth the wait. It comes complete with lettuce, fruit, protein, oregano and a vinaigrette consisting of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Make no mistake about it, the Big Salad is a serious salad and can be a substitute for an appetizer, entree and dessert all in one big bowl, because if it isn’t overflowing with goodness, it ain’t a big salad. The salad is named for its insistance on not eating like the typical bachelor, which normally consists of Kraft Dinner, pizza, take-out/delivery or something that just isn’t very healthy. For him, anyone can make a big salad and just put a lot of “stuff” in it, but he has perfected the spin-off to the Big Salad which he calls the Bachelor Salad. In honor of this episode, I would like to talk about the concept of the Big Salad and pay tribute to my roommate. Thank you for letting me go off topic a little bit there. George: Just tell her what’cha want, they’ll make it for ya.Įlaine: It’s a salad, only bigger, with lots of stuff in it. Elaine complains to George that Reggie’s doesn’t offer her favorite item as Monk’s as the waitress (Hilde) at Reggie’s takes their order… One of my favorite scenes from the show is when the gang is forced to eat at Reggie’s Diner because George had a falling out with one of the waitress’ from their usual diner Monk’s and he forces them to eat elsewhere because he finds it uncomfortable. So anyone who knows me will tell you that i’m a big fan of Seinfeld and much to the chagrin of my family and friends, I often quote or refer to the show and here I go again. ![]() ![]() It allows them to implement geospatial indexing, scale their systems, implement high availability, and to handle failures.

Uber was founded in 2009, and not much tech stack history exists prior to 2014 (their eng blog starts with posts around August of that year), so our timeline starts in mid-2014, right around the time it first achieved unicorn status. Each Stack Decision has a link to the original source content, allowing easy access for anyone wishing to dig deeper on any particular decision. We synthesized more than a dozen sources, including official Uber communications, such as the Uber engineering blog, as well as many third party sites. In our first installment of Stack History, we’ve collected a comprehensive history of key stack decisions made by Uber, in the hopes of informing and inspiring all the developers out there working on the next billion dollar idea. Now that you can easily share Stack Decisions, we thought it would be cool to use our new powers to tell Uber's technology story. But at StackShare, we believe in collecting and sharing these stories to highlight the ways in which technology choices have impacted Uber’s ability to grow and scale. Most of Uber’s millions of passengers aren’t aware of the complex systems that fire into motion when they press the Request Ride button. It’s a story that underlies all other Uber narratives, and one that powers its meteoric growth even today. In its rise from startup to Unicorn to public company, Uber has grown across the globe, impacted countless lives, introduced new business models to the world, and has made headlines countless times.īut one story has remained largely untold: the story of Uber’s technology decisions over time.

![]() It is the leading cause of blindness in American adults. Learn more about age-related macular degeneration.ĭiabetic retinopathy (DR) is a common complication of diabetes. AMD is the leading cause of permanent impairment of reading and fine or close-up vision among people aged 65 years and older. The number of people with AMD is estimated to reach 2.95 million in 2020. It is estimated that 1.8 million Americans aged 40 years and older are affected by AMD and an additional 7.3 million with large drusen are at substantial risk of developing AMD. However, the presence of large and more numerous drusen raises the risk of developing advanced dry AMD or wet AMD. The presence of small drusen is normal and does not cause vision loss. They often are found in people aged 60 years and older. One of the most common early signs of dry AMD is drusen.ĭrusen are tiny yellow or white deposits under the retina. Over time, as less of the macula functions, central vision is gradually lost in the affected eye. The dry form is more common and accounts for 70–90% of cases of AMD and it progresses more slowly than the wet form. ![]() An early symptom of wet AMD is that straight lines appear wavy.ĭry AMD is when the macula thins overtime as part of aging process, gradually blurring central vision. Bleeding, leaking, and scarring from these blood vessels cause damage and lead to rapid central vision loss. Wet AMD is when abnormal blood vessel behind the retina start to grow under the macula, ultimately leading to blood and fluid leakage. AMD affects the macula, the central part the retina that allows the eye to see fine details. Central vision is needed for seeing objects clearly and for common daily tasks such as reading and driving. So it is more accurate to say that each hemisphere of the brain is dealing with the opposite half of the environment, rather than with the opposite side of the body.Macular degeneration, often called age-related macular degeneration (AMD), is an eye disorder associated with aging and results in damaging sharp and central vision. We can see from such tests that each eye sends information to both hemispheres, and conversely, that each hemisphere of the brain gets input from both eyes. For instance, if you look at the word "was," focusing your gaze on the "a," you wouldn't see the "s" - and you would only see the left half of the "a." A complete right homonymous hemianopia (neurologists call this half-blindness) actually dissects precisely the center of gaze. ![]() Problems with sight, such as vision gaps, are also divided along these lines. What is less commonly known is that such a stroke can also lead to blindness in the right half of the visual world-the right visual field-involving both eyes. This arrangement means that when are looking at something, each of the two retinas are seeing the same thing, providing binocular 3D vision.Ī massive stroke in the left side of the brain leads to paralysis and lack of sensation in the right side of the face, right arm, and right leg. In other words, light coming from anywhere in the left half of the visual environment projects onto the two right half-retinas, and the information is sent to the right hemisphere. The most important fact is that the lens of the eye inverts the image that forms on the retina therefore, objects seen to our left are sensed by the right half of our left eye. Just like the visual field is divided into two hemi-fields, the retina, a layer of cells at the back of the eye, is divided in half. The total visual field is the sum of the right and left hemi-visual fields in each eye. To produce sight, the eyes capture information and send it through the optic nerve to be processed by the occipital lobe.Įach eye sees a part of the outer world which is called its visual field. Sight is a complex function of the brain that extends from the front to the back of the head. At this point, each nerve then splits again so that both halves of the brain receive information from each eye. Since we have two eyes we have two optic nerves that eventually meet at the optic chiasm, centrally located near the pituitary gland. For example, information about touch and pain coming from the right half of the body goes to the left hemisphere of the brain and muscle movements of the left side of the body come from the brain's right hemisphere.īut the eyes are an exception to this rule. Much of the human brain is arranged in a way that the right half of the brain controls the left half of the body and vice versa. |
