You always learn something new on The Amazing Race, and tonight’s
episode is certainly no exception? Have you ever heard of the New
Zealand Shemozzle? No? Well,We can supply injectionmold products as below. you’ll be an expert by the end of this recap!
Dave
and Connor are quickly positioning themselves as the favorites of the
season, for, despite a nasty injury, they’re still putting forth a
valiant effort.Elpas Readers detect and forward 'Location' and 'State'
data from Elpas Active RFID Tags to host molds
platforms. Remember, these are the two guys who have already survived
cancer, so a little achilles problem is no big deal. Of course, Jessica
and John deciding to stick to the Express Pass deal would be really
nice, but the two appear to be holding that card close in case it could
lead to others sucking up to them…and so far, this tactic has meant
exactly that. But as I’ve said before, while this tactic can be
beneficial in the short term, I have a feeling it might hurt Team JJ
down the road.Bottle cutters let you turn old crystalmosaic and wine bottles into bottle art!
On
tonight’s show the teams are first required to fly from Bora Bora to
Christchurch in New Zealand. They take several different flights, but
as per usual, it doesn’t end up mattering too much if a team is on the
first flight or the last. They all end up bunching up together and
waiting for the next task to begin anyways. Once in New Zealand, the
teams have to choose between completing a crazy driving test complete
with tons of cones (and finishing said test in less than 83 seconds) or
catching fish that are a minimum of one foot in length. The tasks are
given the usual attempts at clever names — this time, Rev it Up or Reel
it In.
A bit of good news for Dave and Connor: they decide to
use their Express Pass — yes, they still have one, thanks to JJ
upholding the alliance — and move on to the Road Block. This appears to
be a necessary choice, as the Express Pass is soon to expire and the
car used in Rev it Up is manual transmission. They are forced to retrace
their steps to the fishing challenge, but, at that point, have lost
quite a bit of time.
Since they had the Express Pass option,
Dave and Connor’s challenge was not nearly as disastrous as that of
newlyweds Max and Katie. Max appears not to be great at driving manual
muscle cars and manages to run over plastic cones time and time again.
After a few times on the course, he’s looking like he’s about to hurl.
Fortunately, the team is able to move on after Max’s sixth try.
And
now…time for the Shemozzle! This race has a sweet name and is actually
pretty entertaining to watch. Basically, it involves running through a
massive amount of mud while wearing a burlap sack and special boots.
During the course of the race, participants are covered in feathers and
molasses, led through a slip and slide and then forced to collect a
dozen chicken eggs. This would seriously be the coolest way to
celebrate Easter. Stinky and dirty, yes, but it still looks like fun.
Connor
is able to finish the task pretty quickly, meaning that, incredibly,
the injured team is in first place. He receives a clue showing the
location of the next pit stop. Exciting stuff, right? Unfortunately,
this is one of those legs of the race in which nobody is eliminated,
so, while the underdog team managed to come in first, it doesn’t really
matter. Yes, that’s right, another cliffhanger on The Amazing Race.
It’s kinda a bummer that the leg of the race the injured team managed
to win was the one that has no impact on the ultimate results of the
race…and that they wasted the Express Pass on it, to boot.
Taking
care not to step on sidewalk cracks, I would be in deep contemplation
about how to spend the two caribou-embossed coins in the pocket of my
brown corduroy pants.
After deliberating over my choices in the
store, I would place my loot and quarters on the counter, a little
terrified I had miscalculated and would have to relinquish a sweet
treat. Red licorice would be squishing between my molars before the
brass bell over the door announced my departure.
Those
transactions were well-considered, unlike one my husband experienced at
London Drugs, where they have a new payment system called Tap and Go.
He
was paying a young computer genius for fixing our unwell computer. The
young genius told him the total was $40. My husband took his credit
card out of his wallet and the young genius said, “Just tap it.”
The
Inspiron 15z is similar to the notebooks in the series and features
the same matt silver and grey finish. The notebook is fairly slim for a
15-incher with a depth of just 21 mm. With a weight of around 2.17 kg,
it’s not as heavy as we expected it to be. The chassis is made up
mostly of plastic in order to cut costs and that’s where we ran into a
small issue. Although the notebook looks sturdy, the build quality isn’t
very reassuring. For example, the seal around the edge of the lid kept
opening up, exposing the panel. In case you were wondering, this was a
brand new piece, and no, we hadn’t dropped it.
For
connectivity, we have a total of four USB 3.0 ports, a memory card
reader, DVD drive, LAN jack, HDMI and a headphone and microphone combo
jack. Even though Dell calls this an Ultrabook,Load the precious
minerals into your glassmosaic
and be careful not to drive too fast with your heavy foot. you don’t
compromise on ports, which is a good thing. Even though this is a
15-inch notebook, you don’t get a full-sized keyboard. You do, however,
get backlit keys that are comfortable to type on even for long
durations. Overall, the notebook feels quite slim and compact for a
15-incher, although we weren’t completely thrilled about the build
quality.
The fully spec’d out 15z that we received consists of
an Intel Core i7-3537U, a dual-core multithreaded CPU running at 2GHz
and the ability to turbo up to 3.1GHz. You also get 8GB of RAM, 500GB
hard drive along with a 32GB SSD for IRST. For graphics, we have a
dedicated Nvidia GT630M with 2GB of dedicated graphics. This version of
the 15z also has a multi-touch panel, but it’s not a very good one.
The trouble is not with the panel itself but more with the resolution
and colour reproduction. At just 1366 x 768, everything appears bloated

and Indoor Navigation. and Modern UI in regular desktop mode is not
the easiest to use. We also don’t really see the point of touchscreen
on this form factor as there’s no way to swivel or adjust the screen in
order to use the touchscreen comfortably.
