in your pool while it's open to the elements 24/7. The pool will need less sanitation because you are not getting bugs, debris, etc. We have 3 kids under the age of 6 and only one of them could save themselves if they accidentally fell in the pool. ![]() I'd love to hear pro and con opinions and experiences from automatic cover owners, espicially those in the snowy climates. I've received quotes for the cover from $5,300 to over $8,000. He said we should use the money saved for more decking, a nicer fence, etc. This pool builder says a better way to go is to use a conventional solar cover at the beginning and end of the swimming season (when the heater is being used) then put that away during the hot summer months and use a product like "Liquid Solar" or "Heatsavr". I had my wife convinced that the auto-cover was the way to go, now I'm not so sure. He recommended them for people with very young or mentally-handicapped children. He only advocated putting an automatic cover on a pool for safety. Who wants to spend all that money and not see the water when you look out the window. He stated that the cost and mechanical problems increase significantly when used on larger free-form pools as the cover width increases. They are expensive, even for a simple rectangular pool. It makes a poor winter cover because the snow can't be left on the cover (will pull cover from tracks) and the cover will become very dirty, requiring a big scrub down in the spring - more hassles. The leaves and other junk must also be removed before the cover is fully retracted. I'll need a pump to remove rainwater from top of cover, which adds to hassle factor. Will result in increased chemical usage, as covering the pool during the hot weather will keep the pool warmer which increases need for chemicals and reduces their effectiveness. Will not reduce pump run-time because the water will still need sanitized. We are installing a vinyl-liner diving pool in the Cleveland area (lots of snow). This suprised me, considering he would make more money if we included it in the build. ![]() During a visit with my wife and I at our house, a very well established pool builder (30+ years) strongly recommended against an automatic pool cover.

![]() the fact that my parents were able to afford a modern video game console was an outright miracle, we tell you. back in the days of my late teenhood (aka 2010), my family got their hands on a Nintendo DSi. The June Archive and Restoration Project. i hear you screaming at your computer screen: "inbtwn, this isn't a fucking video game! you dolt!!! you Utter Rube!!! i am going to Super Unfollow you by DDOSing your cat right fucking now >:(", and to that I respond: This is my list, and I do what I want. ![]() Oh! would you look at that! it's another thing that i'm nostalgic for!! yippee!!!!Īnd yeah i know, i know.

The story seems to be hinting at something very interesting as well. despite this, though, even if i weren't familiar with the ways of old roblox 2, i can totally see this being an actual series of videos that was posted back in the early aughts that nobody paid attention to. Roblox is a game that I played back when I was a teenager (it involves making 'places' out of bricks and having other people play said places), and therefore I have nostalgic memories for and I am totally biased towards. as the videos go on, the places themselves get slightly weirder and weirder.īut it's all good, because a year or so later the owner of the channel finally meets up with brandon! he's okay! right?īrandon works is a really neat spin on the old video game unfiction adage, although this time it's based on a video game that actually exists. he puts out videos showcasing backups of his friend's old places. a youtube channel is created by a Roblox player who wonders where his old online friend disappeared to. i may edit this to have collapsible synopses down the line but for now this is all you're getting number 1: brandon works Quick note before we begin, though: i am going to be vague about these channel's plots as possible since i believe they're best going in completely blind. with that preamble out of the way, let's get 2 da Good Stuff. ![]()

Suppose, then, that the employee is fired for cause by employer # 2 in August 2015 and sues employer #1 for wrongful termination in January 2016, alleging back pay damages for all of 2015. Claimant then looks for a new job and obtains a position with employer # 2 in July 2015 that is substantially equivalent to his previous job. Suppose an employee is discriminated against and discharged by employer #1 in January 2015. These questions are addressed in the sections below and implicated in the following factual scenario. (3) What is the practical effect to a Title VII back pay award when a claimant is subsequently terminated for cause? (2) If so, what level of conduct by the claimant is required in order to meet the “reasonable diligence” standard in maintaining subsequent employment? (1) Does a Title VII claimant alleging wrongful termination have a duty to use reasonable diligence to maintain substantially equivalent employment after it has been obtained? This understanding thus leads to the three main questions which are the central focus of this article: ![]() 5 As a consequence, “ince only actual losses should be made good, it seems fair that deductions should be made not only for actual earnings by the worker but also for losses which he willfully incurred.” 6 Logically, then, any amounts the claimant failed to earn as a result of not using reasonable diligence must be credited to the employer. Title VII’s remedial provision relating to back pay is equitable in nature and seeks to restore what the claimant lost as a result of the discriminatory discharge. Supreme Court has interpreted this section of Title VII to “require the claimant to use reasonable diligence in finding other suitable employment.” 3 Although a claimant need not seek or accept employment that is demeaning or constitutes a demotion, he or she will forfeit the right to back pay if a “substantially equivalent” job is refused. Thus, in cases where a plaintiff alleging wrongful termination is discharged by an interim employer, defense counsel should investigate not only the facts surrounding the primary claim, but also those of any subsequent discharge.Ī Claimant’s Duty to Minimize Damages under § 706(g) of Title VIIĪ Title VII claimant’s duty to mitigate damages derives from § 706(g), 2 where it states “nterim earnings or amounts earnable with reasonable diligence by the person or persons discriminated against shall operate to reduce the back pay otherwise allowable.” The statutory language cited thus provides that any amounts earned by a wrongfully terminated employee from subsequent employment act as a credit toward the employer in calculating the claimant’s backpay award. Unfortunately, the body of case law regarding the effect of subsequent terminations on back pay awards is relatively small, but several federal appellate courts have indeed held that employment plaintiffs have a duty to use reasonable diligence in maintaining interim employment. This article provides defense counsel with a litigation tool when the issue of damages mitigation arises in factually similar employment cases. Under these circumstances, the employer may still argue that the value of those interim earnings should be deducted from any back pay award because the claimant unreasonably failed to maintain his or her interim job. In particular, a more nuanced articulation of the “mitigation of damages” defense becomes necessary if the plaintiff did obtain replacement employment but was subsequently fired from that position for cause. However, the failure to seek replacement employment is not the only context in which the defense may be raised. In other words, a discharged employee, even when terminated on discriminatory grounds, may not sit back and watch his or her purported damages accrue rather than seek a new job. Usually, this defense alleges that the plaintiff failed to make reasonable efforts to secure replacement employment after being discharged. When litigating employment cases involving a Title VII 1 claimant’s allegations that he or she was wrongfully terminated, one of the key defenses at an When litigating When litigating employment cases involving a Title VII claimant’s allegations that he or she was wrongfully terminated, one of the key defenses at an employer’s disposal is that the plaintiff/former employee failed to mitigate his or her damages.

The genetic formula for a black cat is B- D- (hyphens can have genes B or b and D or d, respectively). Mutations of this gene determine, in addition to black, chocolate colour and cinnamon colour (cinnamon colour), both of which are recessive to black.īlack cat drawing exciting and exciting activity! For gene B to appear and give a black colour, in addition to it, a cat must also have a dominant colour saturation gene D. This lesson is intended for beginners who want to learn how to draw black cats! They usually lie or even sleep.īlack cat drawing little information about this action! But we wake up from the fact that drawing black cats is no different from drawing simple cats! The black colour of the cat’s coat is due to the presence of the eumelanin pigment, the synthesis of which is controlled by the dominant gene B (from the English Black – black). Against a black background, in contrast, the yellow, green or orange cat’s eyes look unusually bright.īlack colour has always been associated with night, darkness, magic, witchcraft, so black cats seem mysterious and mysterious to us. Black hair glistens and casts in the sun, making the cat attractive and beautiful. There are limits to this too, though.Black cat drawing this is not an easy task, but in this lesson, we will talk about how to do it in 3 versions! Black cats are particularly sophisticated, elegant and graceful. The exception might be cats hiding in Christmas trees, as in the example here.Īs you can see from the example images above, eyes come in a lot of colors and variations. Eyes with a lot of highlights - something which you see sometimes in anime art, and which gives the characters a "starry sky" look - isn't something you usually see, and is therefore almost always unrealistic. Last but not least - lots and lots of highlights. ![]() This cat is photographed while looking at a ring light (used for portrait photography), which causes weird reflections. If you have weird light sources, you get weird reflections. Note the square, and the reflection of the scenery outside. This means no shadows, as the dog look directly at the light source - which is only blocked by the photographer, causing them to look dark.Īnother full-on reflection, where the cat looks up at a window. In this case, the dog is looking up at the photographer. Usually happens when there are several lamps, or something obstructs part of a larger one and splits it into two.įull-on reflection. Note that the light comes from below in this image, which means the highlights are at the bottom of the eye too. Usually when there's a single small (but often strong) light source, like the sun or a lamp. Those usually are some form of white/light rectangles or squares. If the sky is blue, they tend to have a bluish tint. This happens outside, and can create large curved highlights. An interesting adaptation to those eyes is that they can roll around, and thus (almost) always stay horizontal no matter how the animal holds their head: Some smaller predators like mustelids and mongooses also have them. ![]() This means they are generally preferred by prey animals, like deer, horses, goats, antelopes, etc. ![]() Horizontal pupils allow for a very wide field of vision - which makes it easy to see anyone who tries to approach, as well as keeping an eye (pun definitely intended) on the ground. Larger cats and wolves/coyotes/dogs/their closer relatives have round pupils. Round pupils allow for good depth perception, and are usually preferred by larger predators who hunt during the day (however, this is not a must, and most can hunt at night too - helped by the tapetum lucidum which we'll cover later in the article). In general they are preferred by (smaller) predators who hunt close to the ground, like smaller felines, foxes, but also crocodiles and snakes. In addition to this they allow the animal to judge short distances well. (Vertical) slit pupils allow for great expansion and are thus good for animals who are active during different light conditions, including at night. All of those have different advantages, and are thus preferred by different types of animals. ![]() Set it low to prevent lift during full throttle acceleration on hard surfaces, or set it higher to serve as a transparent backstop during high-speed, high-flying off-road action.
