![]() The right type of splash block will help safely guide water draining from the gutters further away from the foundation.Ī simple splash block resembles a shallow trough or flat tray with sides that has a slight downward slope. ![]() When a downspout is too close to the house, standing water can result, which over time can lead to a number of issues, all related to water damage. But to prevent rainwater from the gutters being deposited too close to your home’s foundation, it must be the right kind and installed correctly. Since they are available in a variety of sizes, shapes and styles, a splash block should be selected based on the specific requirements of the existing gutter system. (BTW, we know that they are backwards, but since most of them are on inclines….Splash blocks are designed to direct water exiting from the downspout. This is a big win for us, BIG WIN…and we’ll take it. We even stopped by our stone supply place for a few big rocks to hide more of that ugliness. It felt like we’d found the Arc of the Covenant.Īt 4 bucks each, 2 bucks cheaper than the Home Depot plastic thingy, “We will defiantly take 5” Unfortunately, the other “Dallas” location was also really in “Garland”…….about 20 miles away.Ĭould we do it? Could we make the 20 mile drive in about half an hour?Īfter a stop for gas and Red Bulls (AND a turn-around back home because we left in such a hurry that the motion sensor on our alarm was still active…….and a Doberman was running loose in the house) we made it to ABC Supply in Dallas/Garland. Good news, the other Dallas location of ABC Supply has some in stock AND was open on Saturday….but only for another 35 minutes. They didn’t have any splash blocks in stock, but suggested that he try their other Dallas location. He Googled Gutter Supply, and dialed the first business listed. (50% chance of someone NOT being there as well) At least Spectrum invested in an answering machine. No Spectra on Google…….but there was a Spectrum. But they were only open 2 Saturdays a month. ![]() I tried another concrete business, the guy on the end of that phone number didn’t sell them but thought that Spectra might. Nope, not open on the weekends, and who could run a business with NO answering machine?Ĭoncrete manufacturing people apparently. I Googled Senox, and dialed the number …… the phone just rang,…… and rang,…… and rang. They’re located closer to Dallas – Carrollton anyway – but probably not open on the weekends. Not the “Thank you for calling Blah-Blah-Blah Concrete, this is Carl,” like I was expecting.Ĭarl, I’m just guessing here because he never did tell me his name, suggested that I call Senox. The phone was answered with a, groggy “Hello”. In fact, they are about 40 minutes apart. OOOhh, and contrary to popular belief, Dallas and Ft Worth are NOT the same city. ![]() (Why on earth would they want people just Stopping By their business?) They closest purchasable ones we could find were all the way in Ft Worth….but no address was listed. So we headed home and Googled Concrete Splash Block. The first big rain and those things will be in our neighbor’s yard.ĭitto for Lowe’s, and Ace Hardware. Just gasp at the crap that Home Depot is passing off as splash blocks……. So off to “Gay Church”….or the Home Depot, as most people call it. No idea what to call them….splash box/splash blocks….whatever they are, we need them.Ī beautiful Saturday morning seemed like the perfect time to do something about this. You know how sometimes something seems so simple? And it just isn’t?įor over 4 years I have wanted to add concrete rainwater “thingys” under the downspouts from our gutters….Currently the water just pours out onto unattractive hunks of concrete. ![]() ![]() Examples of it can be found on stone carvings and crosses, ancient jewellery, and illuminated manuscripts, such as the Book of Kells. This one of the most iconic Celtic Knots for good reason. The Trinity Knot, also known as the Triquetra, is the most accurate Celtic symbol for unconditional love, in our opinion. A lot is left to interpretation, but that’s not a bad thing really. We can’t know for sure if there’s a specific Celtic symbol for unconditional love, but we can hazard a fairly accurate guess, as you’ll see below. ![]() Since there’s very little recorded evidence of what each Celtic Symbol meant, much of what we “know” about them today is based on scraps of evidence and a lot of speculation. the Claddagh, that fall into the ‘love’ category, these aren’t actually Celtic designs. While there are countless Irish symbols, e.g. The point is, there’s a big difference between Celtic and Irish symbols for love. In fact, they died out almost 2,000 years ago, though that’s a long story for another time. However, the Celts were a widespread tribe, who had settlements all over Europe long before they arrived on Ireland’s shores. Many people tend to use the terms Irish and Celtic interchangeably. Alas, over the last 50 years or so, jewellery makers and tattoo designers, in particular, have capitalised on the love of all things Celtic, by passing off new Celtic symbols for love as authentic, ancient designs. There are only a finite number of authentic Celtic symbols in existence. The Celts haven’t been around for a very long time. ![]() With that in mind, it’s important to go over the essentials before making a choice when choosing a Celtic symbol for love: 1. What is love What are the symbols of unconditional love Flowers can be a symbol of love.The more you look into Celtic symbols and insular art, the more you realise just how difficult it is to separate the wheat from the chaff. This message can be incorporated into tattoos in many ways. Caring Always! the mother’s unconditional love most take for granted. A song, a gift, or a piece of jewelry can be symbolic of love. You can add other symbols to your tattoo, such as stars, flowers, sparkles, and stars. This tattoo can be placed on any part of your body, including the wrist and back. What Tattoo Symbolizes Self-Love Many tattoo symbols can represent self-love, matching your personal preference, interpretation, and preferred quote or message. A tattoo that expresses unconditional love can be symbolic or permanent. This flower also helps open your heart chakra and encourage feelings of self love, acceptance and worthiness. So, what is the symbol of unconditional self-love Tattoos for self-love may include flowers, hearts, mandalas, butterflies, and infinity signs. Mother-daughter tattoos are meaningful and beautiful designs that symbolize unconditional love, loyalty, respect, friendship and guidance. Emerald is a symbol of self love as it opens your heart and promotes feelings of unconditional love, compassion, forgiveness, peace, balance and harmony. A post shared by Taye Diggs (tayediggsinsta) on at 11:55am PST. ![]() This composition is a tattoo dedicated to his mother who he lost in his early teens, featuring her in her happiest moments in the wilderness of kashmir. Similar to how many honor their parents with a handwriting tattoo on their body, parents can do the same, as seen on Taye Diggs’ arm. love statements, these mother-son tattoos are proof of unconditional love. The only tattoo i made immediately after lockdown (a 1st working in a full surgical ppe kit for 10 hours straight) was this back piece which we initiated on his mother’s birthday. There are tattoos with symbols that represent family members or loved ones who. Celtic knots usually represent the eternal and unconditional relationship between any two people or between a group of people. Will be finishing this in 2021 where the details will be improved. You can also choose to have a Celtic knot tattoo if you wish to remind yourself and showcase to the world the relationship between you and the members of your family. From small, minimalist to bold love statements, these mother-son tattoos are proof of unconditional love. Don’t normally put unfinished work but this definitely is one of the special pieces i got to work on in 2020. ![]() ![]() ![]() Electrons in orbitals that experience more shielding are less stabilized and thus higher in energy. This phenomenon is called shielding and will be discussed in more detail in the next section. Electrons that are closer to the nucleus slightly repel electrons that are farther out, offsetting the more dominant electron–nucleus attractions slightly (recall that all electrons have −1 charges, but nuclei have + Z charges). Within each shell, as the value of l increases, the electrons are less penetrating (meaning there is less electron density found close to the nucleus), in the order s > p > d > f. But this is not the only effect we have to take into account. Thus, the attraction to the nucleus is weaker and the energy associated with the orbital is higher (less stabilized). As the principal quantum number, n, increases, the size of the orbital increases and the electrons spend more time farther from the nucleus. The filling order is based on observed experimental results, and has been confirmed by theoretical calculations. Thus, many students find it confusing that, for example, the 5 p orbitals fill immediately after the 4 d, and immediately before the 6 s. Such overlaps continue to occur frequently as we move up the chart.įigure 6.24 Generalized energy-level diagram for atomic orbitals in an atom with two or more electrons (not to scale).Įlectrons in successive atoms on the periodic table tend to fill low-energy orbitals first. The 3 d orbital is higher in energy than the 4 s orbital. However, this pattern does not hold for larger atoms. The energy increases as we move up to the 2 s and then 2 p, 3 s, and 3 p orbitals, showing that the increasing n value has more influence on energy than the increasing l value for small atoms. The 1 s orbital at the bottom of the diagram is the orbital with electrons of lowest energy. Figure 6.24 depicts how these two trends in increasing energy relate. In any atom with two or more electrons, the repulsion between the electrons makes energies of subshells with different values of l differ so that the energy of the orbitals increases within a shell in the order s < p < d < f. The energy of atomic orbitals increases as the principal quantum number, n, increases. ![]() The specific arrangement of electrons in orbitals of an atom determines many of the chemical properties of that atom. This allows us to determine which orbitals are occupied by electrons in each atom. Having introduced the basics of atomic structure and quantum mechanics, we can use our understanding of quantum numbers to determine how atomic orbitals relate to one another. Relate electron configurations to element classifications in the periodic table.Identify and explain exceptions to predicted electron configurations for atoms and ions.Derive the predicted ground-state electron configurations of atoms.By the end of this section, you will be able to: ![]() ![]() You will need to create this folder in the Cinema 4D R2023 folder: C:\Program Files > MAXON Cinema4D 2023 > plugins (you need to create this folder!) > c4doctane Step 3) Maxon Cinema 4D does not include a plugins folder.
