In life, we usually avoid complications, in a dress watch as well, the less the better, a simple uncluttered dial is one of the timeless qualities that a dress watch should fulfill. The focus should ideally be on the essence of a watch. The time in hours and minutes, and little if anything more. Some of the best examples even avoid seconds hands. A good men's dress watch also needs to be discreet enough to not distract from your attire - and preferably, sometimes on a leather strap that matches your belt and shoes. Slenderness (thickness of the case) is another virtue in a classic dress watch, being of a diminutive height so that it slides easily under a shirt cuff and gives a subtle wrist presence. While a dress watch that uses stainless steel is fine, wearing one gives you a good opportunity to have some precious metal on your wrist. Pershing as a token of France. Kennedy wore his Tank throughout most of his term in office and that Cary Grant, an actor noted for his sartorial elegance, chose the Tank, also says something for its design.

The profile of the case was also redesigned in 2. The dial features dual curves and is embellished by elegant Dauphine- style hands and a subsidiary seconds dial.

Renaissance Watch Repair - Table of Pocket Watch Sizes. Watch movements are measured in an arcane English system of measurement called the Lancashire system or Lancashire Gauge**. In this system, 1 5/3. Each 1/3. 0th of an inch adds 1 (or subtracts 1) to this base. A watch is measured through the center of the lower plate of the movement (the dial side). If the movement is asymmetrical, say oval or rectangular, it is measured at its narrowest point. Note that the case is NOT included in this measurement, only the movement. Measuring the dial is usually a fair approximation of the lower plate measurement. Watch Size. Fractional Inch. Decimal Inch. Lignes. Millimeters. 18. 1 2. Transparente Labs Strength.

Armageddon (1. 99. Wikipedia. Armageddon is a 1. American science fictiondisaster film directed by Michael Bay, produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, and released by Touchstone Pictures. The film follows a group of blue- collardeep- core drillers sent by NASA to stop a gigantic asteroid on a collision course with Earth. It features an ensemble cast including Bruce Willis, Ben Affleck, Billy Bob Thornton, Liv Tyler, Owen Wilson, Will Patton, Peter Stormare, William Fichtner, Michael Clarke Duncan, Keith David, and Steve Buscemi. Armageddon opened in theaters only two and a half months after the similar asteroid impact- based film Deep Impact, which starred Robert Duvall and Morgan Freeman. Armageddon is a more entertaining and action packed movie than Deep Impact. Honestly, the humor in Armageddon can get downright silly, but like Independence Day, it. Armageddon fared better at the box office, while astronomers described Deep Impact as being more scientifically accurate. NASA discovers through the Hubble that the meteors were debris propelled from the asteroid belt by a rogue asteroid roughly the size of Texas. The asteroid will collide with Earth in 1. NASA scientists, led by Dan Truman, plan to trigger a thermonuclear detonation at least 8. Earth. NASA contacts Harry Stamper, considered the best deep- sea oil driller in the world, for assistance. Harry insists he will need his full team to help execute NASA's plan, and they agree to help but only after their list of unusual rewards are met. NASA plans to launch two specialized shuttles, Freedom and Independence, to increase the chances of success; the shuttles will refill with liquid oxygen from a Russian space station before making a slingshot maneuver around the Moon to approach the asteroid from behind. NASA puts Harry and his crew through a short and rigorous astronaut training program, while Harry's team re- outfit the mobile drillers, . Bruce Willis as Harry Stamper; Ben Affleck as A.J. Frost; Billy Bob Thornton as Dan Truman; Liv Tyler as Grace Stamper. Will Patton as Charles 'Chick' Chapple.During training, Truman and Harry are skeptical about the abilities of A. J. Frost, a hot- headed drill operator who has been dating Harry's daughter Grace against Harry's wishes. The destruction of Shanghai by a meteorite forces the government to reveal the asteroid's existence, as well as their plan. The shuttles are launched and arrive at the space station, where its sole cosmonaut Lev Andropov helps with refueling. Bruce Willis w 2010 roku: Imi Bruce Willis, Actor: The Sixth Sense.

Certa vez, ele entrou na encena A major fire breaks out during the fueling process, forcing the crews, including Lev, to evacuate in the shuttles before the station explodes. The shuttles perform the slingshot around the Moon, but approaching the asteroid, the Independence's engines are destroyed by trailing debris, and it crash- lands on the asteroid. Unknown to the others, A. J., Lev, and . The military initiates a backup plan they call . Truman delays the military, while Harry convinces the shuttle commander Colonel Willie Sharp to disarm the remote trigger. Harry's crew continues to work, but in their haste, they accidentally hit a gas pocket, blowing their Armadillo into space and losing another man. As the world learns of the mission's apparent failure, another meteorite decimates most of Paris. All seems lost until Independence's Armadillo arrives. However, flying debris from the asteroid damages the triggering device, requiring someone to stay behind to manually detonate the bomb. The crew draw straws, and A. J. As he and Harry exit the airlock, Harry rips off A. J.'s air hose and shoves him back inside, telling him that he is the son Harry never had and gives his blessing to marry Grace. Harry contacts Grace to bid his final farewell. After some last minute difficulties involving both the shuttle engines and the detonator, the Freedom moves to a safe distance and Harry triggers the detonation while his life flashes before his eyes. The bomb successfully splits the asteroid, avoiding the collision with Earth. Freedom safely returns to Earth, and the surviving crew are treated as heroes.

They contain a variety of valuable resources and slam into our planet on a regular basis, occasionally snuffing out most of Earth's lifeforms. How much do you know about space rocks? Over time, the spacecraft's subtle gravitational tug could pull the space rock into a more benign orbit. But this might be tough to achieve when it is the 6. Slam dunk - Wikipedia. A slam dunk, also dunk or dunk shot, is a type of basketball shot that is performed when a player jumps in the air, controls the ball(s) above the horizontal plane of the rim, and scores by putting the ball directly through the basket with one or both hands. Such a shot was known as a . Moreover, it is a crowd- pleaser.
Thus, the maneuver is often extracted from the basketball game and showcased in slam dunk contests. Perhaps the most popular is the NBA Slam Dunk Contest held during the annual NBA All- Star Weekend. The first incarnation of the NBA Slam Dunk Contest was held during the half- time of the 1. American Basketball Association All- Star Game. Dunking was banned in the NCAA from 1. Many people have attributed this to the dominance of the then- college phenomenon Lew Alcindor (now known as Kareem Abdul- Jabbar); the no- dunking rule is sometimes referred to as the . Satch Sanders, a career Boston Celtic from 1. It was an unwritten rule.. The dunk became a fan- favorite, as offensive players began to aggressively intimidate defenders with the threat of vicious slams. Through the 1. 97. David Thompson, Julius Erving, Darryl Dawkins, and others wowed crowds with high- flying moves. Dunk types. They start with the basic one- or two- hand forward- facing dunk and go on through various levels of athleticism and intricacy. Discrete dunk types can be modified by appending other moves; for example, a player who passes the ball off the backboard, catches it in the air, and executes a double- pump dunk would be said to have completed a . The player will then quickly thrust the ball downwards and fully extend their arms, bringing the ball below the waist. Finally the ball is brought above the head and dunked with one or both hands; and the double pump appears as one fluid motion. As a demonstration of athletic prowess, the ball may be held in the below- the- waist position for milliseconds longer, thus showcasing the player's hang time (jumping ability). Whether the result of a 1. While this orientation is rather conducive to the double pump motion, Spud Webb was known to perform the dunk while facing the basket. Circa 2. 00. 7, independent slam dunker T- Dub performed the double pump with a 5. Because of the ball- security provided by the use of both hands, the tomahawk is a staple of game situations. Additionally, the two- hand finish can exert tremendous force on the basket. Circa 2. 00. 9 independent slam dunker Troy Mc. Cray pioneered an especially complex variant of the dunk: once the tomahawk motion is complete, instead of slamming the ball in the rim, a windmill dunk (see below) is then performed. Then following the rotation of the outstretch arm, the ball is moved in a circular motion, typically moving from the front towards the back, and then slammed through the rim (from the profile view of a player facing the basket, the windmill motion most generally appears clockwise). Although, due to momentum, many players are unable to palm the ball through the entire windmill motion, the dunk is often completed with one- hand as centripetal force allows the player to guide the ball with only their dunking hand. In some instances sticky resins or powders may be applied to the palm, these are thought to improve grip and prevent loss of possession. In these cases, the windmill motion may be performed with the previously discussed one- arm technique and finished with one- or two- hands, or the player may control the ball with two hands, with both arms performing the windmill motion, finishing with one or both hands. Additionally, the ball may be cuffed between the hand and the forearm. The cuff technique provides better ball security, allowing for a faster windmill motion and increased force exerted on the basket at finish, with either one or both hands. Using the cuffing method, players are also afforded the opportunity of performing the windmill motion towards the front (counterclockwise), a technique exploited by French athlete Kadour Ziani when he pioneered his trademark double- windmill. List of Slam Dunk episodes. Cover of the first DVD from Slam Dunk published by Geneon and Toei. Watch Slam Dunk Full Episodes Online. The basic concept behind the TV Show called Slam dunk is that it's about a basketball team from Sh?hoku High School. Occasionally in the game setting, the windmill is performed via alley- oop but is rarely seen in offense- rebound putback dunks due to the airtime required. Dominique Wilkins popularized powerful windmills. Watch Slam Dunk Ernest putlocker. Watch Slam Dunk Ernest Full Movie Online Putlocker . Version 2 thefile.me.Once airborne, the dunker generally transfers the ball from non- dominant to dominant hand beneath a raised leg. Finally, the ball is brought upwards by the dominant hand and slammed through the rim. The under- the- leg dunk was popularized by Isaiah Rider in the 1. NBA slam dunk contest. Ricky Davis has managed to complete the dunk in an NBA game. Due to the athleticism and hang- time required, the dunk is a crowd favorite and is heralded by players as the preeminent of all dunks. Instead of simply dunking the ball with one or two hands, the player allows their forearm(s) to pass through the basket, hooking their elbow pit on the rim before hanging for a short period of time. Although the dunk was introduced by Vince Carter in the 2. NBA Slam Dunk contest, Kobe Bryant was filmed performing the dunk two years earlier at an exhibition in the Philippines. Clippers power- forward Blake Griffin completed a self- pass off of the backboard prior to elbow- hanging on the rim. A number of other variants of the elbow hang have been executed, including a lob self- pass, hanging by the arm pit. In 2. 00. 8, Canadian athlete Justin Darlington introduced an iteration aptly entitled a 'double- elbow hang', in which the player inserts both forearms through the rim and subsequently hangs on both elbows pits. Modifier- activities occur prior to leaping or while airborne. Modifiers performed prior to leaping pertain to the manner of approach (e. Modifiers performed while airborne pertain to bodily rotation (e. Dunk types can also be modified with obstructions (e. Modifiers are inherent to in- game dunking and conduce toward successful dunking as a means to score points. Modifiers are important in the grading of slam dunk contests because dunk types are made more difficult when modified (i. For taxonomic purposes it is an important distinction, but the modifiers discussed below are often considered dunk types in common parlance. This misconception is perhaps attributable to the modifier being the most salient component of the dunk from the perspective of the observer. However, each dunk modifier requires a dunk type to be a successful dunk. The application of an alley- oop to a slam dunk occurs in both games and contests. In games, when only fractions of a second remain on the game or shot clock, an alley- oop may be attempted on in- bound pass because neither clock resumes counting down until an in- bounds player touches the ball. The images to the right depict an interval spanning 1/5 of a second. Baseline dunk. In the game setting, the dunk often comes as the result of a pass, creating an assist opportunity for a teammate. In the contest, the baseline approach may be used as a means of convenience, facilitating a particular dunk type (e. From a Distance. The free- throw line is most commonly constituted as the take- off point, an effect likely attributed to the easily observable span between the line and the basket in the view of the TV audience. In order to achieve the hang- time and altitude necessary, players will generally leap from one- foot to maximize the momentum generated from the half- court running start often required to complete the dunk. A cornerstone of dunk contests, dunks from a distance are also performed in games, most often on the fast break. Free Throw Line. Chamberlain was able to dunk from the free- throw line without a running start, beginning his forward movement from within the top half of the free- throw circle. Barry received 4. All of the Dunks received a score of 5. Dunk contest. Other instances of dunks from a distance abound. James White in the 2. NCAA Slam Dunk Contest successfully performed tomahawk and windmill variations of the foul- line dunk. The title is in reference to the key on a basketball court, often known as 'paint' in common parlance. During flight, some portion of the player's body is elevated above the obstruction. This may entail raising the legs or some portion thereof in- air to soar over the obstruction. In other instances, the trunk- moves over an obstruction as the legs pass around it. Common obstructions include: motor vehicles; crouched, seated or standing person(s); ball rack; or other available objects. Perhaps the most popular obstruction- modified dunk is the Dubble- Up. Aptly eponymous of the its pioneer. The dunker approaches and leaps as though their groin would soar above just above the head and their legs around the stationary person. Just prior to clearing the person, the dunker will assume control of the ball with one or both hands, guide it under a raised leg, transferring it to the appropriate hand, clearing the ball- holder, raising the ball above the horizontal plane of the rim, and finally guiding it downward through the basket. While the Dubble- Up mimics a between- the- legs dunk, Kenny Dobbs and Justin Darlington have both performed an under- both- legs variant. Other obstruction- dunks are worth noting: Haneef Munir performed a Dubble- Up, dunking with his right- hand and then caught and dunked a second ball with his left hand. Jordan Kilganon, a Canadian athlete, approached from the baseline a person standing, holding the ball above their head. Kilganon leaped, controlled the ball in front of his torso and raised it above the horizontal plane of the rim before bringing the ball downward into the hoop and hooking both elbows on and hanging from the rim. Notable Dunks. The French media dubbed it . This dunk was so called because Jordan's body was not perpendicular to the ground while performing the dunk. TNT viewers rated it . When performed, much of the audience was speechless, including the judges, because none had seen these types of dunks before (Carter's first round 3. Kenny Walker's 3. Slam Dunk (TV Series 1.
