My friends and I had gone down to breakfast at 9am, they both had trainers on, it wasn't too busy - just a few older people in the corner. It's the same in some supermarkets as well."īlake, who was wearing a hoodie and tracksuit trousers, was visiting Manchester with pals and the trio went down to the Thyme restaurant for breakfast at 9am.īlake said: "I was in Manchester for the weekend. "When you're wearing flip flops no-one cares but when you're barefoot some people do care. "It's more of a thing of 'look if you injure yourself it's self-inflicted'. "A lot of companies do harp on about health and safety but in actual fact in the UK there is no health and safety law that prevents someone from going barefoot. "He came over and that I would need to put some footwear on to be in the breakfast area because of 'health and safety'. "The member of staff in Manchester who seated me had zero issues, it was the second member of staff who took issue with it.

"The staff sometimes make comments 'just be careful' but for the most part they don't really care. "When I'm barefoot sometimes I get looks from the cleaning staff. "I normally don't wear shoes, for me it's a comfort thing and I've never had any issues. "I've also got a bit of a hammer toe so a lot of shoes don't fit correctly.

The furious customer branded the hotel 'the worst Premier Inn in the UK' on social media over the row and says he probably won't stay there again. The decision is even more curious when the menu blurb from Thyme Bar & Grill, its in-house restaurant, boasts 'we don't believe in rules… anything goes. He begrudgingly put on a pair of trainers before returning to the buffet areas and tucking into his breakfast.īaffled Blake said there's no health and safety policy in the UK and wants clarity on why he's allowed to go barefoot in some branches of Premier Inn but not others. When Blake asked if it was a requirement he says he was told it was a 'health and safety' policy and went back to his room to adhere to the request. However as he went to grab a drink from the buffet he claims another staff member stopped him and ordered him to put shoes on.

"I can confirm that our Derry's Cross site opened on May 21," the spokesperson said. Now, a spokesperson for Premier Inn has confirmed the hotel and Thyme restaurant are open too. Students were finally able to move into the accommodation a year later, in September 2020. Whilst the student flats were initially set to open in the autumn of 2019, this was delayed after a furniture company went out of business, with further delays caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. The premises was previously the site of Derry's department store, which closed down in 2010 after almost 60 years of trading, and has seen a £50 million investment transform the site into a striking residential and commercial block, with Plymouth Cross House student accommodation, the new Premier Inn restaurant and several small business lets.

Whereas the latter felt very dated from a design standpoint and required you to wrestle with gun aiming and tiny enemy hitboxes, Jedi Academy lets you get to grips with your lightsaber immediately. What’s great about Jedi Academy compared to last year’s re-release of Jedi Outcast is that it leans on its strengths right away. It’s a cool approach as far as continuing the story beyond Return of the Jedi and the other Jedi Knight games go, one that sees you undertake several space-spanning operations in pursuit of a mysterious Sith cult, the Disciples of Ragnos. Here you create your own character, Jaden Korr, who begins his/her path to becoming a Jedi by training under Katarn’s and Luke Skywalker’s wing. Whereas previous games in the Jedi Knight series saw you play as rebel-turned-Jedi Kyle Katarn, Jedi Academy originally released in 2003 gives players a new approach. One minute you’re rescuing hostages, the next you’re fleeing from a Rancor. The missions in Jedi Academy are extremely varied. Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy is a prime example, delivering fun lightsaber combat, a deep story and now some nice, tidied up visuals. It’s a good thing, then, that Star Wars games from the early ’00s aren’t just good, but genuinely some of the best Expanded Universe (EU) content ever released. But while the glitzy spectacle of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is reserved for PS4, Xbox One, and PC, those wanting to enjoy Jedi antics on Switch must make do with ports of pre-existing titles. You wait so long for a decent Star Wars game to release under EA’s watch, and you get a whole bunch suddenly dropping at once. Battles in the new missions are just as beautiful as ever, with shock waves and booming explosions peppering fields where you've called down your special attacks. Between missions you'll also get more in-engine cutscenes as the Soviet personalities bicker and fight over events built around the narrative spine of the original game. All the while you'll also have to manage your troops and vehicles, ensuring they're in the appropriate positions if you're trying to bulk up defenses around control points, focus fire on incoming targets, and order airdropped repair units or reinforcements as necessary. From high above battlefields you'll need to order down strike after strike of napalm to burn forests to wipe out enemy cover, tank buster bombing runs, artillery barrages, and incendiary bombs. From protecting a convoy with assault choppers to raining destruction upon NATO forces with artillery units, there's plenty of opportunity for players to engage in more of the large-scale, fast-paced, and satisfying tactical gameplay for which World in Conflict is known. In addition to possessing some of the strong narrative elements that made the original outing so memorable, the new missions feature some thrilling sequences. Included in the Complete Edition are six campaign missions new to the game presented from the perspective of the Soviet forces. The characters are strong, the cut-scenes well-directed and written, and the way the resource system, unit production, and special abilities are integrated and streamlined provides for some accessible, energetic gameplay that's even better online. In addition, it features a campaign driven by a slickly presented storyline built around the idea of the Soviet Union invading the United States in 1989. The game offers some fantastic real-time tactical gameplay mixing control of tanks, troops, transports, artillery, and airborne units with the ability to call in a variety of bombs and explosive strikes on the battlefield. It includes the original content along with what comes along with the Soviet Assault add-on. NOTE: This is just a documentation, which I hope would help others facing the same issue! Don't hate me for this.For anyone who missed Massive Entertainment's World in Conflict when it was shipped in late 2007, the newly released Complete Edition is an easy recommendation. Since then the problem has ceased to exist and I can run the game normally! So I enabled it and Windows Update started to download a huge update (version 1511 build 10586.36) which I installed. It's funny to know that both Grand Theft Auto IV and DiRT 3 worked flawlessly just weeks prior.īecause of this, I assumed that it's an issue with the version of Windows 10 I was using (I disabled the automatic updates several months after I upgraded to the OS). I've faced a similar issue on two other games (both GFWL games): Grand Theft Auto IV and DiRT 3, both games would just stop responding upon launching them and no amount of reinstalling GFWL did anything. Unfortunately for me, the problem persisted. I was getting desperate, so I went on to try the GOG version (which according to the others here, has no issues or whatsoever). I thought that I'd need to install World in Conflict as well (even though I clearly remember from past experiences that it's not required), which I did, not forgetting to verify its integrity. The last solution was obviously not meant for a Windows 10 user like me, so I skipped it. Then I editted my Game Options.txt and disabled "myDX10Flag" also to no avail, re-enabling it did nothing either. I tried the first one and Steam downloaded several GBs of more World in Conflict files then attempted to run the game again, nada. Most prominent of these solutions were integrity checks, the "myDX10Flag" tweak as well as the KB2670838 Windows Update uninstall. So I went to look for possible solutions here (and on Soviet Assault's Discussions). However, upon clicking "Start Game" on the launcher, the game simply stopped responding, causing an immediate CTD. I've never had any issues running the game previously (on both Windows 8.1 and Windows 10), so I didn't expect to encounter any. Yesterday, I've decided to redownload this game (Soviet Assault only), and yes, I'm fully aware that its servers has been shutdown last year. In my 20 plus year career at Southwest, I have never seen such an inexcusable, violent assault of a flight attendant by a passenger. "But what happened on Flight 700 was absolutely horrific. "The primary role of a flight attendant is to both foster and ensure a safe environment," wrote Sonya Lacore, Southwest's Vice President of Flight Operations in a May 18 letter to US District Court Judge Todd Robinson. The March 2022 sentencing date was delayed after Ms Quinonez was picked up for drunk driving. In December 2021, Ms Quinonez pleaded guilty to one charge of interference with flight crew members and attendants and another charge of assault resulting in serious bodily injury on an aircraft. Vyvianna Quinonez was arrested when the plane landed but soon after bailed. She required three stitches for a cut under her left eye, crowns to replace two teeth, and suffered bruising. The female flight attendant was taken to hospital when the plane landed. Southwest Vice President writes to sentencing judge Several passengers attempted to stop Ms Quinonez by grabbing at her clothing and arms, including male passenger sitting nearby who jumped between Ms Quinonez and the Southwest Airlines flight attendant and told her to sit down. Ms Quinonez admitted she stood up and intentionally assaulted the flight attendant. The plea agreement states Ms Quinonez began filming the flight attendant on her cellphone and pushed the flight attendant. The passenger was asked by two separate flight attendants to sort this, but she declined and after the second request, began swearing at a flight attendant. On the drop, the passenger attracted the attention of flight attendants by not wearing her seat belt, pulling down her tray table, and not wearing her face mask properly. The 29-year-old female passenger received the hefty sentence on Friday after a Southwest Vice President took the time to write to the US District Court Judge to call out the behavior.īruising, stitches, and damaged teeth for Southwest flight attendantĪccording to the San Diego US District Attorney's office, Vyvianna Quinonez was onboard WN700 from Sacramento (SMF) to San Diego (SAN) on May 23, 2021. © 2023 NYP Holdings, Inc.15 Months Jail For Punching A Southwest Flight AttendantĪn obnoxious passenger is cooling her heels in jail for 15 months after being sentenced for seriously assaulting a Southwest flight attendant.Ī Southwest Airlines passenger is out of the air for 15 months after landing a custodial prison sentence for punching a flight attendant in the mouth and breaking her teeth. “It’s inexcusable for anyone to use violence on an airplane for any reason, particularly toward a flight attendant who is there to keep all the passengers safe.” “The flight attendant who was assaulted was simply doing her job to ensure the safety of all passengers aboard the plane,” Acting US Attorney Randy Grossman said in a statement Wednesday. Three of her teeth were also chipped, leading to two of them being replaced with crowns, federal prosecutors said. in court documents, was injured during the brutal assault - with bruises to her left eye and a facial cut that required three stitches.

Any mattress compatible with the dimensions of the base will do just fine (if you have a queen mattress, choose a queen size base). How Do I Set Up The DreamCloud Adjustable Base?īefore I get into the setup of DreamCloud’s adjustable base, I want to note that while this base was built with the DreamCloud mattress in mind, you don’t need a DreamCloud mattress to enjoy it. The DreamCloud adjustable base is made with a steel frame and gray upholstered fabric, but if this design doesn’t work with your aesthetic, this base can fit into other frames you already have around the house. Most beds should be compatible with the DreamCloud Adjustable Base. It’s important to double-check with your mattress manufacturer, but you probably won’t have to purchase a new mattress to go with your adjustable bed frame. The DreamCloud adjustable base specifically comes with a range of features, from massage settings to USB chargers, that’s perfect for anyone who wants all the bells and whistles. But is DreamCloud’s model the one you should go with? It Has Lots of Special Features Sure, adjustable bases are extremely helpful in a number of ways. Will the DreamCloud Adjustable Base Benefit You? Folks wanting lightning-fast tech: The base changes positions very slowly, so some patience is required.Moving up and down didn’t make much noise, but when we tried the massage settings (more on this soon), it did sound slightly like an engine rumbling. Those wanting a super quiet base: It’s worth noting that while the DreamCloud Adjustable Base is easy to use, it’s not always whisper quiet.However, there are a variety of different options on the market, and many have frequent sales and discounts. Budget shoppers: Adjustable bases aren’t exactly a necessity, so if you’re looking to save as much as possible, an adjustable base might not be a good option for you.Luxury shoppers: Adjustable bases are also a great option for anyone who wants to get more out of their bed than your typical box spring can offer, and adjustable bases are typically more high-quality and durable than regular bed frames.Those wanting an easy-to-use base: Even with a wireless remote and multiple settings, we found the DreamCloud Adjustable Base has an easy setup process.People in all sleeping positions: The range of motions you get with adjustable bases also means they work for a variety of sleeping positions - side sleepers and stomach sleepers should be able to find comfortable positions, as well.People with back pain: Adjustable bases are a great option for anyone who might suffer from back pain, since the range of positions can help give added support and alleviate tension at pressure points.For example, you can raise your feet for better circulation at night, or your can raise your head to watch TV. Many have adjustability options for each half of your body. An a djustable base allows you to customize the positioning of your mattress so it better suits your sleeping needs. Whether for tracking time when cooking and baking or preparing your work presentation, timers are essential to measure, improve effectiveness and boost productivity. People can now set their timer for hours, minutes and seconds and choose between different alarm sounds to alert them when the countdown has finished. They are now available in watches, computers, and mobile phones, with new features that could not be found on the analog models. Analog timers tend to come in funny or unusual shapes to serve as part of the decoration too.Īs technology evolved, digital timers have also become widely used and spread. At a certain point, they even became a necessary kitchen utensil to help cooks know, for example, when it is time to remove a cake from the oven. About timersĪ timer is a clock set to countdown a specified time interval and to sound an alarm when the said interval is over.Īnalog timers have been popular for a long time in many activities since they do not require the users to know the exact hour at that moment.

Online timer is a web tool aimed at helping users take control of their time and setting time goals for themselves. I found that I could comfortably wear it all day when I was out running errands or as the best base for summer schvitz-proof makeup.Īlthough I’ve been wearing sunscreen regularly on my face, décolletage, and hands for about 15 years, the moment I found Supergoop, pretty much everything changed-including, most importantly, my mindset. Unlike the chalky mineral formulas that made me look like a ghost, it’s totally translucent and absorbs quickly, leaving behind a velvet sheen that minimizes pores and resembles the finish of every hot girl’s favorite foundation: Armani Luminous Silk. But when I first tried the Unseen Sunscreen, I found that it feels exactly like a mattifying jelly primer-a texture totally unlike other sunscreens I’ve tried before. Other products burned my eyes (making me look stoned) or left an extreme white-cast (making me look like the Victorian child haunting your attic). It’s hypoallergenic, lightweight, and contains a mix of 6 percent titanium dioxide and 4.7 percent zinc oxide-just enough mineral protection to be effective but not so much that you need to spend several minutes rubbing it in.Before trying Supergoop, like everyone else, my SPF game was inconsistent, and I conveniently “forgot” to apply sunscreen in my daily skincare routine. We especially liked using the Glow Stick for reapplying face sunscreen multiple times a day.īest Drugstore (Photo: Courtesy Cetaphil) Cetaphil Sheer Mineral Sunscreen Stick Broad Spectrum SPF 50 ($7.99 for 0.5 oz)Ĭetaphil is known for its sensitive skin-friendly products, and this new sunscreen stick is no different. The formula glides onto the skin so easily that you almost don’t feel it and leaves a subtle, hydrating glow once it dries. This shimmery, gel-like solid contains avobenzone, octisalate, and octocrylene-gold standard ingredients for chemical sunblock. Stream2Sea also proves its reef-safe claims by testing the impact of its ingredients on aquatic ecosystems.īest Chemical/Invisible (Photo: Courtesy Supergoop!) Supergoop! Glow Stick SPF 50 ($25 for 0.7 oz) Its unique application-skin takes on a blue or pink cast once the color goes away, it’s time to reapply-makes it easy to visualize how protected your skin is even after several hours in the ocean. Bonus: The faint coconut smell is inoffensive, unlike some sunscreens that smell chalky or like Pina Coladas.īest for Water S ports (Photo: Courtesy Stream2Sea) Stream2Sea EcoStick SPF35+ ($14.95 for 0.5 oz)Īll the mineral formulas here are water-resistant, but Stream2Sea’s line of EcoSticks was the hardest to wash off during testing. Its 21 percent zinc oxide concentration provides very strong sun protection while the other ingredients, including shea butter, beeswax, and linseed oil, are all hypoallergenic and approved by pediatricians. We were impressed with how easily this thin formula melted onto skin, making application quick on squirmy youngsters. (Many dermatologist-approved mineral sunscreens are formulated with between 10 to 20 percent Zinc, or mixed with titanium dioxide if they fall below 10 percent.) But this stick’s nourishing blend of coconut, calendula, and jojoba oils makes the effort worth it.īest for Kids (Photo: Courtesy Supergoop!) Supergoop! Sunnyscreen 100% Mineral Stick SPF 50 ($24 for 0.7 oz) Its 25 percent concentration of zinc oxide is on the high end, meaning a lot of work is needed to rub away the telltale white cast. This larger-than-average circular stick makes it easy to cover your chest, arms, and legs with just a few swipes. Best for Applying All Over (Photo: Courtesy All Good) All Good SPF 50+ Sport Mineral Sunscreen Butter Stick ($17 for 2.75 oz) All but one are mineral formulas that rely on titanium dioxide or zinc oxide to physically block UVA and UVB rays rather than oxybenzone and octinoxate, ingredients that are more likely to irritate sensitive skin and can be toxic to fragile environments like coral reefs. These are our favorites to carry in our pockets and stash in the car for quick use throughout the day. They’re small, spill-proof, and easy to use when you’re on the go, or just need to swipe an extra layer of cover on your nose. Thankfully, a new generation of sunscreen sticks offers a portable solution. But when you’re three miles into your day hike or about to catch a big wave, you might forget that your initial layer of protection isn’t enough-sunscreen should be reapplied every two hours, especially if you are getting wet or sweaty. Let’s state the obvious: sunscreen is essential for outdoor enthusiasts of all ages and skin colors. |
