Green swamp west gps tracks3/21/2023 Travellers shared roads with herds of cattle being driven to market from distant pastures. Royal processions toured the country enjoying various subjects’ hospitality, pilgrims travelled great distances to visit shrines, ‘church paths’, and ‘corpse roads’ connected parish churches with outlying settlements and trade routes attracted names like ‘portway’, ‘maltway’ and ‘saltway’. Narrow pack-horse tracks, like North Yorkshire’s flagstone ‘trods’ at Kirby Bank in the image above, wended their way through hills. The bumpy dirt tracks that remained were frequented by robbers.ĭespite this, roads with specialist functions emerged. Part of an extensive network of long-distance tracks (or ‘trods’) across the North York Moors © Historic EnglandĪfter the Romans left Britain (by the 5th century AD), little attention was paid to making or repairing roads. Medieval Tracks and Drift-Ways: Kirby Bank Trod, Yorkshire Kirby Bank Trod, North Yorkshire: Scheduled, dating from late 12th–13th century, with later reuse and repair. These lanes – which can still be walked today – confirm the area’s importance as a communications conduit for Winchester, from the Romano-British period onwards. The aerial photograph above, taken in 1929, shows the multiple ‘hollow-ways’ (or sunken lanes) criss-crossing the ancient landscape of Twyford Down in Hampshire. As a result, many routes that have declined in importance still survive as public footpaths. Roads often gained special status as legal and customary rights of way. Crawford Collection © Crown copyright NMR Ancient Hollow-ways: Twyford Down, Hampshire Multiple hollowed trackways traverse the hill slope at Twyford Down, Hampshire. Some of the finest Roman roads can be seen on open moors, such as the Blackstone Edge paved road that still crosses the Pennines, and the road crossing Tideswell Moor to Whiston in Yorkshire (shown in our banner image). The roads’ straightness today helps us identify them as Roman, even when obscured by modern tarmac. Roman engineers connected key points by the most direct route, skilfully keeping to a straight course despite natural obstacles. From AD 43 – when the army of Emperor Claudius began their conquest – troops could move rapidly and transport supplies using wheeled freight wagons, a novelty in Britain.Ĭursus publicus (imperial mail service) messengers used roads to travel up to 150 miles a day, changing horses at wayside mutationes (posting stations). These hard-surfaced highways (laid on embankments called ‘aggers’) were built by their army for invasion purposes. The Romans famously made our first ‘proper’ roads. Roads to Conquer: Blackstone Edge Roman Road The scheduled Roman road that runs across the Pennine’s Blackstone Edge Moor, Yorkshire © Mark Moxon A reconstruction can be found in the British Museum. Historic England protects many of these, including sections of the scheduled Sweet Track on the Somerset Levels, which is over 5,800 years old. These included causeways made of twigs, split logs and planks across low-lying, water-logged places. ![]() Prehistoric ridgeways following chalk and limestone hills, such as the South Downs Way, were part of a wider network of early routes. Then, over time, well-trodden paths developed. Human footprints have been found preserved on English shores before the end of the last Ice Age ( roughly 11,500 years ago). Heavy planks carried goods and pedestrians © illustration after Coles & Coles, ‘Sweet Track to Glastonbury’ (1986) From main roads connecting towns and cities to meandering green lanes and mysterious paths to nowhere, our highways and byways are steeped in history.įreight lorries bound for the Continent still use prehistoric tracks, long-distance coaches hurtle along Roman roads and farmers depend on medieval lanes to reach their fields.Ī number of these routes have been protected through scheduling: is there an ancient road near you?

High visibility vest3/21/2023 ![]() This can be from traffic, from backing vehicles, and from large construction equipment. Over time, that buildup will decrease the effectiveness of the reflexive material, making you harder to be seen in low visibility.Įvery year, hundreds of workers are killed in worksite accidents. Dirt, dust, and grime can also grind away at a vest’s fluorescent color and damage the microscopic glass beads on the retroreflective tape. Why You Should Keep Your High Visibility Vest CleanĪs you work throughout the day, dust and grime will accumulate on your outermost layer, which is probably a safety vest. To avoid workplace accidents in low visibility areas, you need to make sure your safety equipment comes from a reputable retailer, like Safety Depot, that is familiar with the ANSI codes. Clothing that is labeled Enhanced visibility instead of high visibility, then it does not meet the standards of the ANSI. If you add reflective tape to a bright shirt, you’re probably not up to code. These vests are worn by construction workers where traffic may exceed 50 mph. Class 3 vests must have a tape that is 2 inches wide and creates a full silhouette outline of the person. These vests need to have a reflective tape that is 1 3/8 – 2 inches in thickness that must go over the shoulders and have one or two stripes across the torso. The reflective material also needs to be a specific size as well for maximum visibility.Ĭlass 2 vests, worn typically in areas where traffic flow is between 25-50 mph, are worn typically by airport workers, and parking lot attendants. Your body needs to have a specific reflective material on certain areas of your body. High Visibility Safety Vest Standardsįor any garment to be a high visibility piece of clothing, it must adhere to standards set by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). Cleaning your safety vest regularly is important so you can get the most out of your safety equipment. We want everyone who wears our products not only to feel safe while wearing them but to last as long as possible so you feel the value of our work. Although you might wash some of your clothes, how often are you cleaning your Los Angeles High Visibility Safety Vest? Such a light and small piece of clothing doesn’t get that dirty, does it?Īt Safety Depot, safety is our number one priority. At the end of your shift, you’re probably racing towards the shower. If you’re working out in the sun all day, you’re probably sweating a lot as well. ![]() ![]() This dust sticks to your skin and clothing throughout the day. Oftentimes these workplaces can be very dusty. If you work construction or on a job site, you know that it is not the cleanest of places.

Scroll RingĪccording to Kensington this Orbit features an “Award winning” Scroll Ring, but we haven’t been able to find out yet which award it won. I personally never use these wrist rests (the Kensington Expert comes with one as well) but you should try it to see what works better for you. ![]() ![]() ![]() This makes the overall length much bigger of course, but some people prefer the support. If you prefer extra support under your wrist, the Orbit comes with a removable wrist rest that can easily be attached or removed. The ball is held in place by the body, so during transport or if you hold it upside down, the ball won’t fall out. The ball is placed solidly in the device, and can easily be popped out for cleaning purposes. The Orbit with Scroll Ring has a medium sized ball: not as large as the Kensington Expert and SlimBlade, but bigger than the Kensington Orbit Optical. If you have never used a trackball, I would recommend a finger-operated one (see the list of other finger-operated trackball here). I prefer this kind of ‘finger operated’ trackball, but as I mention in other trackball reviews as well, this is a personal preference and if you are used to a thumb-operated trackball you might argue differently. With this Kensington Orbit, you can use your thumb for the left-click, index and middle finger for the trackball, ring finger for the scroll ring and pinkie for the right-click – that is in my opinion a great set-up which allows for much speed and accuracy. As a bonus, you can program an action for when you press the left and right button at the same time, making this a hidden ‘third button’. With the TrackballWorks you can program each button, for example if you are left-handed and want the right-click on the left. I got used to it after a while, but if you’re just switching to this trackball you will feel the difference. The buttons are large but compared to most trackballs are a bit too sturdy: it takes some pressure to click. Especially the scroll ring and trackball are both working very smoothly and are accurate. Installing Kensington’s TrackballWorks software (available for download on the Kensington website) is recommended though, since it gives you options to program the buttons and speed and direction of the scroll ring.Īfter using the Orbit for just a few minutes I was really impressed with the comfort and precision. Like all modern trackball mice, this trackball immediately works without any driver installation when the typical Kensington USB plug is connected to my computer. The materials are nice: solid plastic in a matte dark-grey, with the ‘metallic’ blue ball as a stark contrast sticking out on top. On each side of the body there are two large buttons. Around the ball there is a grey rubber ring that acts as the scroll ring. The body is very small and low, and the ball is held in place by a shiny plastic ring. The design is perfectly symmetric, so can be used by both left and right-handed users. ![]() When I opened the box, took out the device, and placed the blue, medium sized ball in the body I immediately felt that this is actually a nice device. On photos it doesn’t look that impressive. I wasn’t expecting much of the Kensington Orbit trackball with Scroll Ring, but was positively surprised.

Rolling sky remake3/20/2023 ![]() Robtop took the time to make their game have so much more gameplay. I would say that in this category of gaming: touch sensetivity, memorization, and challenging gameplay, you are second to geometry dash, but that is only because of two things. As of writing, the game's content updates are on resume.I love this game. As of currently, the game's 38 bonus, Goblin Town released on IOS, and it released as well on TapTap. ![]() The post also discussed other things, such as SquareRoot's experience in the past 2 years, and the future of the game, as well as the game's return on the Google Play store. The post confirmed the return of Rolling Sky, and that it's content updates will resume. However, 2 years later, on October 28, 2022, another Bilibili post was made, by a person on the Rolling Sky team called SquareRoot. The post confirmed the end of the game, as well as other things. In September 29, 2020, a Chinese Bilibili post was made, addressing a leak which revealed that stated that Rolling Sky would stop receiving updates. ![]() After that, the game got no updates for a long time and no word from Cheetah Mobile. On July 1, 2020, the game got its final update until 2022, which added Monster City. However, the game still got updates through TapTap. On February 20, 2020, coinciding with the Steam Port's release, due to ad fraud, Cheetah Mobile was banned from Google Play, so all of its games including the official Rolling Sky app, were removed from the Google Play Store. On February 20, 2020, Its Steam Port also released, with 38 levels as well. The port had 38 levels, and was controlled using the left C-stick and the Gyroscope. On April 12, 2019, Cheetah Mobile partnered with Rising Win Tech to port Rolling Sky and Rolling Sky 2 to the Nintendo Switch. It's bonus, Anniversary, was released on October 10, 2018. On September 26, 2018, coinciding with the 3 year anniversary since rolling sky started development, a new level was added, Happy Birthday.The level was designed to be a celebration for the game's 3 year anniversary with many cameos. On November 17, 2016, the first bonus level was added: Illusion. As time went on, the game continued getting updates, adding new levels, and more changes. The game was updated in March 2, 2016, adding a new level, City. The game had 5 levels at the initial release: Massif, Sky, Forest, Desert, and Volcano. To coincide with this, a trailer was also released the next day. The game was in development for a few months, until it's release in January 20, 2016. Rolling started development on September 25, 2015. ![]()
