![]() It may be best not to overdevelop any such tendencies, or to openly publicize them, but to use them quietly and with little fuss in daily life, especially if through your empathic awareness you are able to support and aid others. This can be amplified by using the Neptunian vibration to emphasize an intuitive or telepathic ability, which sometimes also manifests itself in the guise of prophecy. You have a talent for influencing people's minds by subtle manipulation and perhaps through clever handling of communication media, as you have a natural understanding of the essential motivation patterns of others. There can be a taste for dramatic presentations, but this is also effective as it ensures that anything you create is noticed by others, and that by grasping their attention you create a situation where some response is evoked. You are potentially very effective in transmitting your ideas and intentions, and skilled in the forms in which you clothe your messages. Communication to others is important to you. Your creativity should possess substance and context, rather than any superficiality. The way in which you succeed in expressing this could be through art, music, vivid literary creations, poetry, film or photography. The essence of your creative spirit will be evocative imagery, often including meaningful depths and at times an inspirational quality.

The CX500 was such a big hit that they’ve started the label Blacktrack Motors to build the CX500 in a small series.Īfter the big hit machine, they’ve been working on something else called the “Thruxman” a big fat wink to the Norton Manx. Lakic’s CX500 literally melted down the interwebs, giving the custom motorcycle scene a boost like a V2 rocket. This exact bike was the reason for me to start blogging about custom motorcycles. One of the founding fathers of Blacktrack, Sach Lakic, was the designer of the most beautiful Honda CX500 cafe racer of all times (considering to me and a lot of others). With Blacktrack Motors we have a special thing. And of course, if you sell the bike, it’s easy to get it back in its original shape. So with a set of bolt-on parts and different colors, everyone can create their own version of the cool modern classics without the need to have an in-depth skillset. Their idea behind this bike was that the stock bikes of Triumph are cool, but miss the personal connection to its rider in the end: they’re all the same. For this build, they’ve used parts from the catalog of “British Customs”, together with some fine craftsmanship of their own. Probably one of the most affordable and rebuildable bikes in this list a beautiful and stylish Triumph Bonneville T100 cafe racer by Turkish builder Bunker Customs. Triumph Bonneville T100 Cafe Racer by Bunker Customs A noob will simply compare this with the stock Thruxton R, but those who are a bit more inside the British brand quickly see that this bike is really one of a kind. Three British icons that put their minds and hands together to build this very good looking, classic cafe racer. ![]() This custom Triumph Thruxton R is a collaboration between Triumph Motorcycles, Down & Out, and Barbour International. They’ve created quite the number of machines which are all pretty awesome so it was a logical choice to put one of their creations in this top 10. Pretty awesome! Triumph Thruxton R by Down & Outĭown & Out Motorcycles is a familiar name when it comes to building custom Triumphs. French Triumph dealer GB Motors thought it was time to turn the Street Triple into a classic cafe racer. The incredible 3 cylinder engine has the same power band as a V2 rocket and helps you accelerate very fast at all RPM zones. Same goes for the Daytona 675, the racy brother of the Street Triple. I had one and I made the life (on the road) of a lot of super sporters and +1000cc bikes very difficult. Whoever rode one knows that this is a serious cornering-weapon. This bike right here is based on the Street Triple 675. Of course, it’s tempting to take a retro Triumph as a base bike for a Triumph cafe racer, but luckily we didn’t only found Thruxton’s or Bonneville’s for our top 10. Triumph Street Triple Cafe Racer by GB Motors Creativity and shopping around for parts let them build a truly unique and one-of-a-kind cafe racer that really deserves a spot in this listing. So instead of taking a Thruxton R, they’ve used a Bonneville for their own cafe racer version called “El Matador 2.0”. But the guys from Analog Motorcycles like a challenge, or two. Together with a long list of bolt-on parts, everyone can create his own “unique” Thruxton R cafe racer. The stock bike has it all: from beautiful laced wheels to a big fat adjustable gold USD fork. If you take a Triumph Thruxton R as a base bike for a Triumph cafe racer, you’re almost there of course. Triumph Cafe Racer Bonneville by Analog Motorcycles If you have any suggestions, remarks or just want to drop a line use the comment section. This Triumph Cafe Racer Top 10 is a purely subjective selection of what I found to be the best cafe racers with the English label on it. Triumph is one of the major brands that really set a trend for other motorcycle brands to offer turn-key, retro machines. In fact, they produce a variety of modern cafe racers new bikes with the looks of the old days. Today, Triumph still has strong ties to custom bikes and cafe racers. ![]() This combo was called “Triton” (TRIumph + norTON) and still is one of the most legendary machines out there. Especially the Bonneville engines were quite popular in combination with the featherbed Norton frame. The early-day Bonneville’s where often used as a base bike for cafe racers. Triumph has a long heritage when it comes to cafe racers and the brand is a well-known name since the cafe racer scene emerged in the mid-50s of last century. A Triumph Cafe Racer Top 10 is not something you write overnight. ![]() ![]() He warns that if we are to save this fascinating creatureįrom extinction, we must continue to study it.

The endgame, however, tends to have different characteristics from the middlegame, and the players have correspondingly different strategic concerns. The line between middlegame and endgame is often not clear, and may occur gradually or with the quick exchange of a few pairs of pieces. ![]() The endgame begins when few pieces are left on the board. The following two animations demonstrate a Checkmate in one move using this pattern.In chess and other similar games, the endgame (or end game or ending) is the stage of the game after the middlegame. This Pattern takes advantage of the diagonal influence of both the King and Queen in blocking escape squares for a King on the edge of the board. The following examples demonstrate Checkmates with the Shrinking Box Method.Īn Example of Checkmate with the Shrinking Box MethodĪnother Checkmate finishing Pattern to know In particular, avoid these Stalemate patterns: When you are closing the box to just a few squares for your opponent’s King, always make sure that the King has a square available when it’s his turn to move. White uses the King and Queen to gradually shrink the box of available space the Black King can hope to occupy An Example of Checkmate with the Knight-Shape Move MethodĪn Example of Checkmate with the Knight-Shape Move MethodĪn alternative method is the Shrinking Box Method which uses the King and Queen together to gradually reduce the box of available squares. ![]() The King then joins it’s Queen to assist with the Checkmate. The following examples demonstrate the Knight-move method the Queen may use to trap the opponent’s King in a two-square prison on one of the four corners of the board. Moving to an different Knight-Shape distance forces the move back to Black. Move to an alternative Knight-Shape distance from your opponent’s King (forcing him to move out of the Knight-shape, then you can continue with the Knight-Shape move method).Make a useful move with your Own King (either getting out of the way of your Queen or getting closer to the planned Checkmate location.In this situation, you can choose to either: The King is Already a Knight-Shape away from my Queen and it’s my Move Here is an example to demonstrate: Steer the Opponent’s King to a corner near your own King. Kings are Slow!! If your King is far away from the action, give him a shorter walk by using your Queen to Force your opponent’s King to a corner of the board that is near to your own King. Your Queen acts like a Sheep-Dog for this type of Checkmate Otherwise, the One-Square Prison, gives him no legal moves (but not in Check). You need to give the King a two-square prison so that he can make legal moves until you can complete the checkmate. Many “nearly won games” have been ruined by the One-Square Prison Blunder. The One-Square Prison Stalemate Blunder!! This move creates an immediate Stalemate Draw The Queen creates a two-square prison for the opponent’s King, then waits for her own King to arrive to help finish the checkmate. The Two-Square Prison The Black King is limited to hopping between the same two squares The Queen then makes a move (typically of just a single square) in the same direction as the King’s move. This forces the King to move away towards an edge of the board. This method involves placing your Queen the equivalent of a Knight-Shape Move away from your opponent’s King, limiting the available squares. King is the simplest to remember and easiest to perform (even though it may not be the quickest in a particular position).

Track listings Ģ000 live version Chart (2000–01) Claypool, who called the song a "wretched soundscape", reflected, "Bon Jovi was actually a big influence on Primus back in the day. Club column "HateSong", where musicians choose songs they dislike. Les Claypool of Primus chose the song for the The A.V. The guitar solo is performed on one of Sambora's trademark multi-neck 12-string Ovation guitars, rather than switching to an electric guitar for the solo and last verse of the song. In this version, Richie and Jon take turns singing during the second and the last verse. In Bon Jovi's Slippery When Wet Special Edition, Jon and Richie perform the acoustic version of "Wanted Dead or Alive" live, and before singing they mention they wrote the song in Richie's mother's basement a year ago (1985 or 1986) and Richie says "Mom, this is for you" and Jon thanks her by saying "Thanks for Richie's mom for not doing the laundry the day we wrote this song, it's called 'Wanted Dead or Alive'". The audio for the video uses the short (edited) version of the song. The video captures the life-on-the-road feeling, with several shots of the exhausted band members. The music video was directed by Wayne Isham and features footage from the band's Slippery When Wet Tour, including shots from Rochester, New York's War Memorial Auditorium Chicago's UIC Pavilion Rochester, Minnesota's Mayo Civic Center Denver's McNichols Sports Arena Pittsburgh's Fort Pitt Tunnel and skyline Huntington, West Virginia Oklahoma City and other venues. Afterward, Jon told the audience he remembered listening to this song in 1985 while traveling on a tour bus in the midwest and telling Richie Sambora, "We got to write a song like this." The following year the duo composed "Wanted Dead or Alive".Ĭash Box praised Bon Jovi's "convincing gravel-throated" vocal. Jon said during a concert in Detroit, Michigan, on February 20, 2008, that the song "absolutely positively was influenced by Seger's ' Turn the Page.'" Bon Jovi performed "Turn the Page" during a concert in Toronto, Ontario on July 21, 2010. The "lifestyle of every rock band" was similar to that of outlaws in that each was, "a young band of thieves, riding into town, stealing the money, the girls, and the booze before the sun came up." During an interview on Inside the Actors Studio, Jon said he got the inspiration for the song early one morning when he could not sleep while riding in a tour bus. The song's title pays homage to Jon's admiration for Old West heroes, and how he identifies with them as being hated and loved at the same time ("wanted dead or alive", so to speak). The song was certified quadruple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America in 2015. The song has been used in episodes of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Supernatural, The Sopranos, Miami Vice and The Vampire Diaries. It was also featured in the movies Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man, Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed, and Wild Hogs. In 2003 a new version was released on the album This Left Feels Right and this version was also released as a single with a promotional video.Ĭonsidered to be one of the band's signature songs, it is the theme song for Discovery Channel's Deadliest Catch TV show. In 2001 a live version from the album One Wild Night Live 1985–2001 was released as a single featuring a promotional music video. As a result, Slippery When Wet was the first glam metal album to have 3 top 10 hits on the Billboard Hot 100. The song peaked at #7 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and #13 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, making it the third single from the album to reach the Top 10 of the Hot 100. As he introduced his song "Wanted Dead or Alive", he said it was inspired by Seger's " Turn the Page" hit and called the song the band's anthem. During a Februencore performance in Detroit, Jon Bon Jovi told the crowd about running into Bob Seger at a Pistons game. The song was written by Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora and was released on March 3, 1987, as the album's third single. It is from their 1986 album Slippery When Wet.

If you want to know more about statistics, methodology, or research bias, make sure to check out some of our other articles with explanations and examples.Compute four different areas under the standard curve based on the z-value you enter. With a p value of less than 0.05, you can conclude that average sleep duration in the COVID-19 lockdown was significantly higher than the pre-lockdown average. ![]() Since the total area under the curve is 1, you subtract the area under the curve below your z score from 1.Ī p value of less than 0.05 or 5% means that the sample significantly differs from the population. To find the p value to assess whether the sample differs from the population, you calculate the area under the curve above or to the right of your z score. This means that your sample’s mean sleep duration is higher than about 98.74% of the population’s mean sleep duration pre-lockdown. The table tells you that the area under the curve up to or below your z score is 0.9874. To find the probability of your sample mean z score of 2.24 or less occurring, you use the z table to find the value at the intersection of row 2.2 and column +0.04. FormulaĪ z score of 2.24 means that your sample mean is 2.24 standard deviations greater than the population mean. To compare sleep duration during and before the lockdown, you convert your lockdown sample mean into a z score using the pre-lockdown population mean and standard deviation. Then, you find the p value for your z score using a z table.First, you calculate a z score for the sample mean value. ![]() To assess whether your sample mean significantly differs from the pre-lockdown population mean, you perform a z test: You collect sleep duration data from a sample during a full lockdown.īefore the lockdown, the population mean was 6.5 hours of sleep. Let’s walk through an invented research example to better understand how the standard normal distribution works.Īs a sleep researcher, you’re curious about how sleep habits changed during COVID-19 lockdowns. Step-by-step example of using the z distribution That means it’s likely that only 6.3% of SAT scores in your sample exceed 1380. Position or shape (relative to standard normal distribution) A small standard deviation results in a narrow curve, while a large standard deviation leads to a wide curve. The standard deviation stretches or squeezes the curve. Increasing the mean moves the curve right, while decreasing it moves the curve left. The mean determines where the curve is centered. In the standard normal distribution, the mean and standard deviation are always fixed.Įvery normal distribution is a version of the standard normal distribution that’s been stretched or squeezed and moved horizontally right or left. However, a normal distribution can take on any value as its mean and standard deviation. Normal distribution vs the standard normal distributionĪll normal distributions, like the standard normal distribution, are unimodal and symmetrically distributed with a bell-shaped curve. ![]()
