Bang continued to put out Diamond’s material, including his first non-original single, a version of Gary US Bonds’ “New Orleans.” That peaked at No.51 before the release of a song that would become an absolute worldwide anthem – not of the 1960s, but the 1980s. ![]() He soon signed a new deal with MCA’s Uni label, leading to the spectacular results we all know. Going off Bangīut by now, the bloom was off the rose in his relationship with Bang, and he left the label. But his music was, courtesy also of such stars as Lulu, who floated his “The Boat That I Row” into the Top 10, and Richard, who released “I’ll Come Runnin’” as a single. Diamond wasn’t yet known in his own name in the UK. More success ensued, both as a writer (notably of the Monkees’ multi-million-selling “I’m A Believer” and their subsequent “A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You”) and an artist (“Girl, You’ll Be A Woman Soon,” “Kentucky Woman,” and others). The same year, newly signed to Bang Records, distributed by Atlantic, he had his own first hits, including the US top tenner “Cherry, Cherry.” Everybody from Jay and the Americans (“Sunday and Me”) to Cliff Richard (“Just Another Guy”) heard the young New Yorker’s prowess. In 1966, the songs of Neil Diamond began to attract covers far and wide. ![]()

Later in 2022, Space Punks-and all of its new content released thus far-will launch on consoles. Eventually, the game will enter open beta during Winter 2021, which will see the beginning of the game's free-to-play model for all players. During the early access launch on July 14, players will be able to dive into the game's missions with its slate of characters. This does put a clear barrier for entry for those looking to check out the game early, but the developers are looking to incentive those who are down to make the jump at the game's debut. Though Space Punks is planned to be a free-to-play game, it will debut in paid early access, which you will have to buy into with the different founders packs at launch. Each of the four playable characters at launch has their skills and arsenal of weapons to upgrade and advance, which opens up different possibilities to use special combo attacks with other players during online missions, such as pairing one hero's alien tentacle attacks with another squadmate's tech-focused gadgets. In a similar vein to Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, this ragtag crew is often at odds with one another, but when things go south when facing off against rogue targets, their unorthodox and weird approach to action make them quite a team. Described as a "living game" by its developers and publisher Jagex-known for the Runescape series-Space Punks will see new content and evolve over the course of its development.įor the uninitiated, Space Punks is a sci-fi co-op dungeon crawler starring a crew of space-exploring misfits who take on different jobs to gain glory and score some sweet loot. Along with other games from Flying Wild Hog, which includes Shadow Warrior 3 and Trek To Yomi, Space Punks is another title in the developer's tradition of fast-paced action titles that have some clever gimmicks to offer rewarding combat. ![]() The recently revealed Space Punks from developer Flying Wild Hog is a new free-to-play action RPG that blends top-down shooting action with co-op gameplay, and it's launching as an early access title on July 15 exclusively on the Epic Games Store. ![]() ![]() ![]() The Cuppa Billiards Pool Cue Tip Repair Tool is one of the most user-friendly repair tools designed, especially for newbie pool players. ![]() It is mostly made of plastic materials.Ha!

It feels like the majority of quests have little to no moral complexity as a result, you either play the squeaky clean nice guy or the horrible monster bad guy. Moral System - The new destruction system is way too predictable and railroads most quests into having 3 decisions: Be the nice guy with low destruction, be the neutral guy, be the bad guy with high destruction. Elex 1 in comparison had so many memorable landmarks like the forbidden valley with its red trees, the huge factory complex with its underground bunkers in the southwest or the massive dam above the lakes. Elex 2 is completely devoid of any interesting locations outside of the major cities, every "point of interest" is a samey looking ruin and maybe a radio tower. I'm not talking about the factions or characters in the world, but the world itself in terms of geography, variety of biomes and locations and just the interesting stuff to find in it. I know this may be a controversial opinion but I think Elex 1 had the best map Piranha Bytes ever designed. ![]() The World - By far my biggest disappointment with this game. Transitioning from high-speed flight to hover, flying side to side, up and down etc., it all feels really good and is definitely a big step up from Elex 1. Flying around like Iron Man feels so good and I'm genuinely impressed by the quality of animations associated with jetpack movement. ![]() Jetpack - This deserves its own bullet point because I think they absolutely nailed this feature in Elex 2. For example you can play through the Morkon quests as a "double agent", because the game gives you opportunities to support sub-groups that are also against the current beliefs of the Morkons. This means that you can roleplay your way through faction quests even if you don't want to join that particular faction. Special shoutout to the Alb initiation quest, one of the best quests in all PB games imo.įactions - Similar to the quests, factions seem more connected to each other and you often have small sub-groups with different beliefs in each faction. The game is full of such examples, at least in the early chapters. Choices I made in a quest for the clerics near the beginning of the game had consequences in a quest I did for the Berserkers way later. Quests - A lot of quests are interconnected and have effects on each other, especially the ones you do in the towns of different factions. I'm interested to see what you think are the biggest strengths and weaknesses of Elex 2. ![]() ![]() ![]() Join the BMW Motorcycle Owners Club of Minnesota to for advice on motorcycle camping.

![]() I think it’s the easiest way to eat a grapefruit.Ĭons: I personally find that the membrane around grapefruit is tougher than an orange, but it is still edible this way. Pros: The advantage to this method is that it’s really easy, and results in zero waste of the flesh. Make sure to remove most of the white pithy stuff from around the outside. Rotate the grapefruit and make another slice all the way around. Run your knife all the way around the peel of the grapefruit, but don’t cut into the flesh of the grapefruit. I’ll call the second method the Eat it Like an Orange method. Running the knife around each section can get old if you have to do it for 4 grapefruit. ![]() Another advantage is it’s pretty clean, doesn’t create a big mess, doesn’t require a cutting board, and there isn’t a lot of waste.Ĭons: But it’s a bit time consuming if you want to mass prepare grapefruit. Pros: This method is great if you’re just fixing a grapefruit for yourself. The natural sugars in grapefruit make it taste sweet enough on its own to me! But if you find the bitter taste too much for you, feel free to sweeten it a bit with sugar or maple syrup! My dad would always sprinkle a little sugar on top of the grapefruit half before eating, but I personally don’t find that necessary. I used to own some, but I seem to have misplaced them during the move… This can also be done with a grapefruit spoon instead of a knife if you own one. Here’s a grapefruit knife you can find on Amazon that’s made in Germany. Some knifes even have a blade on each end. This helps the knife to fit to the curved outer edge of the grapefruit. It typically has a doubled edged serrated blade that’s curved. A grapefruit knife is designed especially for cutting a grapefruit. But you can even purchase a special grapefruit knife to make the job even easier. I personally don’t find the need for a special knife. You can just dig in there with a spoon to scoop out the flesh, but it’s a lot easier if you run a small knife around each section first. Place your grapefruit on a flat surface and cut it in half.Īs you can see, when you cut it in half, there are small sections divided by a membrane. ![]() My dad loved grapefruit, and this is the way he prepared it. You simply cut the grapefruit in half, and then scoop out the flesh and eat it with a spoon! ![]() This is probably the most popular way to cut and eat a grapefruit. The first method is the one I grew up with, and I’ll call it the Classic Method. Plus I’ll discuss the pros and cons of each method, and which one is my personal favorite. Today I’m going to go over five different ways to cut and eat a grapefruit. In fact, I’d say it’s one of my favorite fruits in general! That blend of sweet, sour, and bitter has me going back for slice after slice.īut figuring out the best way to eat a grapefruit can be confusing.ĭo you need to learn some fancy new skill to get at that delicious flesh, or do you just peel and section it like an orange? Grapefruit is one of my favorites of the winter fruits. In this post I’ll teach you how to cut a grapefruit 5 different ways, plus how to eat it!

The Directors Guild of America was founded in 1936 and, in 1938, included only one woman: Dorothy Arzner.
