Moving the Nimitz into the Red Sea was aimed at putting more U.S. assets in place if they are needed to support what U.S. officials still describe as a limited attack against Syria after it used chemical weapons against civilians. "It does place that strike group in a position to respond to a variety of contingencies," said one official, who was not authorized to speak publicly. The nuclear-powered Nimitz is accompanied by the Princeton, a cruiser, and three destroyers - the William P. Lawrence, Stockdale and Shoup, according to the officials. They said there had been no change regarding six U.S. Navy ships now in the eastern Mediterranean, but military planners were reassessing the situation given a delay in the cruise missile strikes that had been expected this past weekend. President Barack Obama on Saturday backed off imminent strikes by the destroyers off the coast of Syria until Congress had time to vote its approval. ![]() Defense officials said the delay gave them more time to reassess which ships and other weapons will be kept in the region - and whether some may be allowed to leave.

![]() The optimum turned out to be with the speakers pulled well forward from the back wall, relatively close together and toed-in so that they were pointing directly at the listening hotseat. Used with a wide baseline, the speaker sounded phasey and back near a rear wall, the sound was soft and recessive. It's not too hard to see just which strings are being pulled and how.įirst and foremost, we had some difficulty in determining appropriate positioning. This is in most respects an utterly wonderful and beguiling loudspeaker, but it is not without foibles and criticism. But this is not a loudspeaker that sets out to give the user an easy ride. ![]() What you end up with is an unusually elegant tall column, with no hard edges and a very organic shape, enhanced more than a little aesthetically by the unusual grain orientation of the side panels and by the leather trim.

The enclosure sits on an overhanging steel plinth which provides the wide wheelbase required for stability and of course, anchor points for carpet piercing spikes. Our test pair were supplied in the teak option with a horizontal grain structure, but there's also a nice piano black lacquer finish available. These use horizontally arranged staves of wood, which are glued together and then highly polished. The sides consist of what appear to be resiliently mounted panels. It also serves yet another purpose by helping guarantee a good pneumatic seal around the drivers. The front, top and rear panels are covered in real black leather (not leatherette as in some accounts), which is used to apply surface damping and helps control diffraction with its textured surface.

Each planet has a set of armor that it's quests reward that match the level appropriate heroic mission rewards. No planets before Balmorra has done this, and it took me a total of 5 hours of digging around with Customer Support to realize that its reward design had been flawed, an exception from the planets before it. Turns out, what Bioware hadn't told us that your decision during the Prison Break quest would *alter* what quest rewards you'll be getting on the *final* quest of the Story on Balmorraįor example, if you picked the LS option, you would get the Helmet as the last reward, locking you from ever getting the mission to get the Boots as the last armour piece of that setĪnd vice versa, if you picked the DS option, you would get the Boots as the final reward, locking you from getting the Helmet.

Have your tissues ready for this one, as it marks the final appearance of Walker in the franchise after his death in 2014. The crew once again have a target on their backs, as Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham) is determined to get revenge on them for his brother Owen’s demise. So if you really want to nail the viewing order, you’ll hold off on Tokyo Drift until now. Despite the lack of family presence, Tokyo Drift does stand out because it is the first film in the series that is directed by Justin Lin, who would go on to direct most of the remain F&F films. Why are you watching the third entry in the franchise after sixth? Because, Tokyo draft is actually set between the sixth and seventh films, with almost none of the original crew appearing in the Tokyo-based film (with one major exception). The Fast & The Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006) You can stream it on HBO Max and rent it on Amazon Prime Video and iTunes.

Dom and Brian plan to steal $100 million from a shady businessman while being chased down by U.S. Most of what we now associate with the world of the F&F franchise starts with Fast & Furious and it’s a hell of a ride. This is when the franchise really began to kick things up a notch, with Dom and Brian reuniting to bring down a drug lord who murdered Dom’s lover Letty (Michelle Rodriguez). ![]() Here is where things get a little bit tricky, as you actually want to skip Tokyo Drift for now and head straight to the fourth movie.

LAPD officer Brian O’Conner (Paul Walker) goes undercover to infiltrate the world of underground street racing and ends up joining the crew of Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel). Here’s the correct viewing order for all the Fast & Furious flicks, which, yes, is different from the order in which they came out. The whole point of a new Fast & Furious movie is somewhat justified by its simple existence.Īnd yet, somehow this strange franchise does not have a straightforward chronology. Even if the sequels aren’t always good, we hardly care. What began as a single, small-budget movie has grown into a billion-dollar entity that is beloved by fans all around the world. In the world of franchises where you don’t expect great things, the Fast & Furious sequels are both unique and game-changing. But, that didn’t mean we didn’t like sequels, we just didn’t expect them to go anywhere. Back in the 1990s, not all sequels were expected to be good. ![]() What It Is: Take the typing skills of the students to the test.
