Nolgroth Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 Re: "Neat" Pictures Can't decide which D&D setting to use? Or do the PCs constantly travel from one setting to another? Put them in the same world! Too bad that doesn't come in detailed size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megaplayboy Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 Re: "Neat" Pictures I understand the swan escaped. That's my understanding too, yes. The swan weighs about twice what the eagle does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susano Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 Re: "Neat" Pictures Have you seen the youtube video of the Golden Eagles hunting antelope/goats? Amazing stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 Re: "Neat" Pictures We watched a bald eagle fly over a flock of tens of thousands of snow geese once. The eagle didn't act like it was hunting, just passing through. The geese weren't taking any chances and took off with much vocal protest. Amazing sight and sound.

austenandrews Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 Re: "Neat" Pictures I once read that a crow can take on an eagle if they're in flight. Eagles are intercept fighters, ill-equipped to handle claw-to-claw combat unless they're on the ground, where their great size is an advantage.

Cancer Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 Re: "Neat" Pictures Eagles regularly harass ospreys in flight into dropping the fish they've caught, though. Crows are generalists, and are nimbler on the wing than the raptors, and are OK with flying in forested terrain. Eagles are soarers, so their flight tradeoffs optimized for other things.

Susano Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 Re: "Neat" Pictures Talk about a space saver! The Design Odyssey Vertebrae is an entire bathroom in one column. The toilet is at the bottom, then a sink at sink level, and a shower head folds out from higher. This is one of 10 examples of cutting-edge bathroom design at DVICE. Some are hi-tech, others are just beautiful. I particularly like the huge shower head embedded in the ceiling. http://dvice.com/archives/2008/06/state_of_the_pl.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemming Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 Re: "Neat" Pictures I was wondering myself. You'd probably have it in the room, possibly even near the shaft. I'm thinking since that's a display, it's non functional. Actually, it would be the shaft. The sink, toilet, etc... would all drain thru the shaft which is probably a pipe.

I had the same thoughts, and imagined the whole thing would be better with a wider arc on the very bottom which could rotate out, where the shower user would stand and which contains the drain opening. Of course, that still ignores the lack of shower curtain or whatever to keep water from going everywhere as it sprays off the shower user. But this is getting too much of a thread hijack. So here's one I thought was neat... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teh bunneh Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 Re: "Neat" Pictures I've always wondered... what causes that atmospheric ripple effect? I see it in movies all the time, but sort of figured it was just the SFX guys trying to make it look cool... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
