![]() Certainly, from an engineering standpoint, the two watches use significantly different movements, although what they do have in common is that both the Zenith 3600 and the Rolex 4130 are very much pieces of contemporary, high-tech mechanical horology. Zenith’s third edition in honour of the Tour Auto, the Chronomaster El Primero Open Tour Auto pays tribute to the great French historic motorsport event, with the Tricolore of blue, white, and red flowing seamlessly from the matte slate grey dial to the slate grey bracelet. Whether or not the resemblance bugs you is a matter of taste – I suspect some folks will be put off by it, although considering a modified El Primero movement was used by Rolex for the first self-winding Daytonas, I'd propose that Zenith is, to some extent, entitled by history if nothing else to connect the dots a little. Chronomaster El Primero Classic Cars : 51.2041.400/27. The color and the way the ceramic reflects the light on the Chronomaster Sport is insistently reminiscent of the Daytona bezel, but the typeface and function are quite different – the Daytona has a tachymetric scale and the Chronomaster Sport, graduations for reading off tenths and hundredths of a second. Zenith has used ceramic bezels before in the Chronomaster line, but as far as I have been able to determine, just on the two 50th Anniversary limited edition models (which were also launch platforms for the caliber 3600). ![]() I think what makes the resemblance seem so strong at first glance is the ceramic bezel. Zenith has gotten around this problem partly by using low-inertia silicon for the escape wheel, but a lot of the mitigation comes from customization of the driving and coupling wheels, each of which has a unique profile for the gear teeth. Zenith El Primero Chronograph Automatic Grey Dial Mens Watch 03.2046.400/25.C802. El Primero Chronomaster 42 Stainless Steel / Anthracite / Fabric / Classic Cars 03.2046.400/25.C802 From Price Product information Jomashop. The amount of energy available is even less than at the fourth wheel, and adding the load of driving the chronograph is potentially even more problematic. Zenith - El Primero Chronomaster 42 Stainless Steel / Anthracite / Fabric / Classic Cars. The problem is even worse if you try to drive the chronograph off the escape wheel. Balance amplitude can drop significantly when a chronograph is switched on, and if the watch isn't in optimum condition, accuracy can suffer if you leave the chronograph on for long enough. Driving a chronograph from the fourth wheel is already kind of pushing it it's the last conventional wheel in the going train, and stealing energy from the gears at that point means less energy is available to reach the balance. ![]() The reason you don't usually see chronographs driven by the escape wheel is that, generally, it's a terrible idea to try. ![]()

![]() ![]() The third taunt kill is exclusive to the Scorch Shot. The Pyro positions itself in the firing stance of a military official preparing for an execution. The pyromaniac then fires a blank that, at close range, kills and ignites unfortunate mercenaries that get within close proximity, however at longer ranges, the blank behaves similarly as a standard shot fired by the Scorch Shot. The second taunt kill shows the Pyro creating a rainbow complete with an imaginary creature known as a Balloonicorn sitting atop it. Once the rainbow is fully created, the Pyro then unleashes a thundering tremble which sets all unfortunate mercenaries within a 6-foot radius ablaze this taunt can only be used by a variation of the Pyro's flamethrower known as the Rainblower. Pyro's default taunt kills bears a strong resemblance to Ryu's Hadouken attack from the Street Fighter series, which can hit multiple enemies at once. ![]() Out of all the mercenaries, the Pyro has the most taunt kills with a total of 4 however, the pyromaniac can only equip three of them at once. Some of the more useful melee weapons include the Powerjack, which gives the Pyro a speed boost while the weapon is active, and grants the Pyro 25 health upon a successful kill, but leaves the Pyro vulnerable to all forms of damage while the weapon is equipped and the Backscrather, which grants the Pyro a damage bonus and a large health bonus upon picking up health kits, but renders the Medic's healing rate less effective as long as the weapon is part of Pyro's arsenal. The Pyro also carries a fire axe as their melee weapon of choice, which is hallucinated by them as a giant lollipop. Another weapon, called the Scorch Shot, shoots a detonating blank that explodes after a set amount of time. The Pyro is also capable of wielding an assortment of various secondary weapons, from the standard shotgun to a Flare Gun, which blasts a flare that ignites enemy mercenaries upon contact, and does critical damage when hit by a flare while they are on fire. The Pyro is also the best class for detecting enemy Spies, as the afterburner from the flamethrower exposes their invisibility cloak or even their disguise as an unsuspecting ally. The Pyro's flamethrower is also capable of deflecting and reflecting certain projectiles such as rockets and arrows to their senders via an action known as a compression blast (or air blast). While its firepower is not overly impressive, the weapon does have a lasting effect, leaving enemies suffering from afterburn damage for a decent amount of time after being exposed to the flames.Īlthough categorized as an offensive class, the Pyro brings a few sources of utility to the battlefield. The Pyro specializes in fighting enemies at close range using a homemade flamethrower. Also, its weapons take on innocent, unsuspecting forms, with its flamethrower resembling a "rainblower", the Scorch Shot taking on the appearance of a bubble blower, and the fire axe taking the shape of a giant lollipop.ĭue to their delusional behavior, the Pyro almost certainly suffers from schizophrenia, a mental illness that makes this entity fail to realize what is real and what is not. Thanks to the fact that this entity wears a gas mask and a fire-retardant suit, little is known about this individual, save for the fact that they have a strange liking of fire at first glance.Īccording to "Meet the Pyro", in combat, the Pyro imagines that they are in a world dubbed "Pyroland", a childish utopia where its 'enemies' are cheerful, chubby cherubs that are always happy. ![]() ![]() ![]() We did not seek election and win in order to manage the decline of a great nation.The people of this country chose us because they believe we can restore the health of the British economy and we will do just that!

Cline’s lovelorn, milquetoast ballads stand in polar opposition to songs about infidelity, suicide, seduction and ribald displays of commonness. This followed a decade where Patsy Cline was country’s favorite female pop vocalist, known for songs like ‘Walking After Midnight’, ‘Crazy’ and ‘I Fall To Pieces’. ![]() Riley had hit the top of the charts with ‘Harper Valley PTA’ and Loretta Lynn had reached number-one with ‘Fist City’.

By stitching together pieces of so many other essential female country stars’ careers - a coat of many colors of sorts - the “not so ‘Dumb Blonde”’s own career began to take shape. Via this album, the vocalist bucks industry trends and conflates the country music establishment’s expectations for superstar female talent. As for the rest of the album, it’s a fascinating journey into how the foundations of Parton’s iconoclastic professional streak take root. However, it’s on 1971’s Coat Of Many Colors, with its supreme title-track, that her Hall of Fame level talent as a creator and wordsmith emerged. The latter album signaled her creative freedom from longtime creative partner Porter Wagoner and her development from being - in the words of music critic Robert Christgau - a “good” to “great” songwriter. Three years after she released the now five-decades-old Coat Of Many Colors, Dolly Parton released Jolene. ![]() ![]() ![]() Its incredibility satisfying and surprisingly calming.

It’s easy to manipulate the trigger without moving the pistol during the trigger pull. Heritage makes a very nice, clean, and crisp trigger. The classic design of a single-action revolver lends itself to a good trigger, and they didn’t disappoint. The keys point to an accurate pistol are the barrel and the trigger. What Are the Quality Standards on the Rough Rider? But if the real-world shooting results mean anything, poor accuracy is not an issue with this one. It’d be nice to see what they would do when strapped to a vise and fired with no discernable movement. The rough rider pistols are factory tested for function, but not for accuracy. The rounded crown is cut deeply along the muzzle and is finished nicely. The steel barrels are torqued into the aluminum frames and are pretty concentric with the cylinder and frame. It doesn’t seem to be a problem and may cause the bullets to fit tighter and properly gas-seal with a wider variety of bullets. The grooves seem to be a bit shallow compared to the other 22 rifles that I own. ![]() ![]() The twist rate is 1:14, which is perfect for stabilizing a 40-grain bullet in a pistol barrel. The rifling is cut using a button broach for a classic button rifling. After that, they are rifled, crowned, and blued. They are cut down, drilled, and threaded on the breech end. Heritage Manufacturing manufactures their own barrels out of solid steel rods. It’s no surprise that a big component of fine accuracy is quality in the construction of the barrel. It seems to me that despite it being the lowest priced pistol on the gun store shelves it’s a fine shooting and fun pistol. I have yet to find someone who wasn’t satisfied with the accuracy of their Rough Rider. It’s a good design, and the slightly smaller size is fitting for a 22. The internals are pretty much straight-up copied from the old colt revolvers. Basically, it’s a 7/8 size colt with a cheaper finish and a side safety to make it more kid-friendly. Check out the videos on YouTube sometime. So, how good do the experts shoot with the heritage Rough Rider? I’ve watched numerous experts shoot the rough rider as good as any colt. The best way to test out the accuracy of a gun is to give it to the best shooter and watch the results. That’s not super, but it’s not too bad either. ![]() Normally, I can hit a 9-inch paper plate off-hand with most shots at 25 yards. My best day at the range with it was shooting clay pigeons at 50 yards. I will say that the most accurate pistol I’ve ever fired is my Heritage Rough Rider in 22 LR. I’m a pistol marksman by no means, but I’m working on it. I’ve never been a crack shot with a pistol. What Kind of Accuracy Can I Expect with a Rough Rider? I contacted other rough rider owners, as well as Heritage Manufacturing, to get more hands in information about the accuracy in shooting, and the precision of the manufacturing. Heritage puts a high degree of craftsmanship into their pistols Experienced single-action revolver marksman can generally shoot 4-inch clay pigeons at 50 yards with a high degree of success. The Heritage Rough Rider is a very accurate pistol. ![]() ![]() ![]() “Feminism is for everybody.” - bell hooks “A huge part of being a feminist is giving other women the freedom to make choices you might not necessarily make yourself.” - Lena Dunham A lot of what feminism is about is moving outside of roles and moving outside of expectations of who and what you're supposed to be to live a more authentic life.” - Laverne Cox ![]() “I think transwomen, and transpeople in general, show everyone that you can define what it means to be a man or woman on your own terms.

What else would you expect from your bowels? It took me a little while to get his personality but I got it - angry theorist grandpa. There was also Bowels which had a couple of good moments. There were some great moments with other characters including a hilarious one with Muscle after working out and Stomach getting angry with tongue about his food choices. That sounded so eerily familiar from my daily life. There was one that had the Awkward Yeti saying he wanted to be healthy by punishing himself for being unhealthy with running. My favorite pages had to do with exercise, particularly running. This is such a cleverly written book that it took me a second to fully realize why the characters acted the way they did. Also, there are moments he just thinks of his mortality and lets Heart get away with some stuff. In one case, Brain wakes up this Yeti in the middle of the night to tell him things he had to think of right now. I miss things okay!?Īnyways, it was interesting how Heart clearly had flaws but it took me a while to see the logical Brain's faults who you would think wouldn't at least from an at a glance perspective. The butterfly must mean like butterflies in your stomach or chest in this case. He had a butterfly he would chase and in one case the butterfly helped destroy a budget plan that Brain came up. The heart was like an impetuous child that was all about himself, with a carefree attitude, and OH MY. It was so interesting to see how Heart was like a child and Brain an adult. The brain on the other hand kind of reminds me of Dexter from Dexter's Laboratory (it might just be the glasses) without the whole evil thing going on. I must be missing something obvious about his personality there and how it pertains to the heart. I thought Heart was hilarious and incredibly accurate although I find it strange yet funny that he is so conceited. I absolutely loved the dynamic between Heart and Brain. What I looked forward to the most was that it wasn't one whole story but a page at a time of humor that would get me smiling just like Sarah Anderson was able to do for me in Adulthood is a Myth.īody Language started off rocky for me but then there was a clever page about carrying self doubt to a goal and after that a want vs. This happens to be the third book in a series of comic strip collections that Nick Seluk aka "The Awkward Yeti" has created.
