These are rooted in longstanding racial and economic inequalities that have been exacerbated by COVID-19. At every level of schooling, there have been large, persistent disparities linked to students’ race, ethnicity, and neighborhood. Yet, despite the overall progress, deep inequities continue to plague the City’s education system. New York City schools have improved dramatically during the last two decades, including steep declines in dropout rates, increases in high school graduation and college enrollment, and improved attendance and achievement.

This episodic story marks the latest installment in the “Dunkin’ Cinematic Universe” – a journey that began exactly one year ago when Dunkin’ made its number one fan’s dream come true by allowing Ben Affleck to work in the Dunkin’ drive-thru. ![]() Artists Equity served as the brand's creative, production and post-production agency for the campaign. In continued partnership with Ben Affleck and Matt Damon’s Artists Equity, the brand launched a multi-part narrative campaign that began with a commercial during the GRAMMY Awards to tease Dunkin’s much-anticipated return to the Super Bowl, which premiered this evening.

You could even put the ring in a blanket, box of granola bars, or wrap it up in a lightweight jacket. Look no further than your backpack for the perfect ring carrying vessel or an empty, solid-colored water bottle. For instance, perhaps you plan to go for a hike. The added bulk from this outwear could make for the perfect ring bulge coverup.ĭepending on when and how you will propose, there are accessories or props you may be carrying with you at the time. Another option is to wear a loose-fitting jacket or sweatshirt that has big pockets. Well I can tell you from some of the proposal stories that have been shared with us that this strategy has worked in the past. Now you might be thinking - hm, that's a little strange. One option is to hide it your sock with a looser pant that'll cover up any bulge. But there are other places on your body that you can also consider hiding the ring box if you can find the perfect outfit. There's really no good way to do this unless you're wearing very loose pants. When you're trying to fit a bulky engagement ring box in your pocket, it isn't exactly subtle. Here are five fool proof options for hiding the ring so that you can still have the ultimate proposal moment without her finding out: ![]() You might worry that all the planning and the surprise that you've planned for her will be completely ruined unless you get rid of the box.ĭon't panic just yet! We've heard our fair share of amazing proposal stories, all of which included the opening of the stunning Long's engagement ring box. How are you supposed to hide this bulky engagement ring box in your pocket? It looks like you're trying to hide a giant, not-so-subtle rock. But when it comes time to put the ring in your pocket and pull of the best proposal ever - you panic! You go to pick up the ring, and it looks stunning in the box given to you by the jeweler. You've already spent the time picking out the perfect engagement ring. ![]() ![]() ![]() According to their Boating Hanbook undr ?Vessel Length Classes? it says ?length is measured from tip of bow in srtaight nine to stern. Joed ? thanks for the measuring tip but confusing when looking at fee charges and measured differently by Michigan DNR. Tashasdaddy ? the hull ID on this is on the Inside Transom, on this one and on the Port side ? it reads from top to bottom: Re: Mon Ark OR Monarch ? Model doesn't exist? What the H*** did I just buy? Augh! I know I could have saved a thousand words with a pic ? but appreciate any help you guys could offer to a boating newbie trying to learn by doing my first boat refurbish project.Īny help with specs ? how much weight it can handle, will an old 30 hp Johnson will be enough to push it, how many ppl can I take fishing, limits, what was the original layout, etc.Īlthough I thought it was solid when I bought it, there are a couple places near the stern that sag and sound like I?m walking on rice crispies ? so it looks like I?ll be doing a lot of searches and reading about replacing the floor. The deck extends from stern to bow for 8? and steps up about 6? to accommodate bow curvature with another approximately 4? platform with a pedestal mounted in the center for trolling. Starboard side had raised fiberglass pedestal mounted about 2? forward of the stern, screw holes for where I assume the controls were mounted directly in front, and then another small storage compartment about 12? x 18?. It?s completely open from Bow to stern, with a fiberglass storage box on the port side about 12?x 4?. I get everything from Noah?s Ark to a contortionist Arching her back ? but no boat.įorgive my lack of natical terminology - but I'll try my best to describe it. The Model says Mark I (not sure if it roman number 1, or capital ?I?, but when I Google it ? I get ?No Results? for keywords Monark Mark 1, as it says on the transom tag. The serial number is 64320 if that helps. So unless I have a magically shrinking boat hull ? it?s wrong too.Īre there to different manufactures with Mon Ark vs Monarch? It gets better - on the sign and the seller said verbally it was made in ?79, but the registration doesn?t have a year shown, and on the bill of sale had hand written ?unknown? as year. On registration says 15? as advertized by the seller ? but my tape measure says 14?. Here?s the problem ? On the hand written bill of sale ? says Monark, but on registration says Monarch. ![]() I bought it a couple days ago when a friend told me about what he thought was an aluminum boat, got a descent price since the trailer was worth it by itself so Bought it anyway. I posted the question a couple days ago as I just joined this forum looking for answers to refurbishing an old bass boat but never had any replies, other than someone that suggested using it as a giant flower pot if it was an old boat that used wood under glass as subfloor or in transom? A year supply of thank yous goes to the winner. That little round thing is an old dehumidifier that acts as a seat until I figure out the mounting.Please help me identify this mystery fiberglass tri-hull? I don?t have a way to upload a pic right this second but I can describe the hull and would appreciate any help. One on the bow and the other near the stern when i'm steering the boat. Lastly I have a balance disability so I'm trying to devise a way to mount two "Walkers" in the boat. Drop in some ice and keep the water cool and the fish alive. I converted a 30 gallon Igloo cooler into my live well with a aerator. WE try and keep our Bass alive till weigh in and warm water and Florida heat will cook any fish in a short time. I use LED magnetic trailer lights as I've learned those 'waterproof" lights aren't always waterproof. I mounted my depth finder transponder to make it portable and not to drill more holes in my transom. I may power up to a 25 to 30 hp as I fish two other clubs. I belong to a Jon Boat Club that only allows up to a 16 foot boat and 15 hp motors or just use the trolling motor as many members do. I added a 15 hp outboard and a 55lb thrust trolling motor to get around with. ![]() I lined everything up and screwed them in place on the wood stringers. I chose to use white plastic lattice as it won't rot, doesn't get hot, it is lightweight and its durable. When a level was placed across the stringers and the wood, they were even. I cut the 2x4's in 4 foot lengths then cut the plywood in 3 inch x 4 foot strips, sprayed them with Johnson Water Seal and screwed them on top of the 2x4's. I bought treated 2x4's and 3/8 inch plywood. The interior had a non-slip coating applied to it but I'd be tripping over the stringers so I chose to add a floor. I needed to upgrade because the 14 foot jon boat I was using was too small for me. Recently I purchased a 16 foot Jon boat for $900. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Its nose rises up into a huge cool box-like "frunk" (front trunk), the front and rear overhangs are substantially longer - the GT is longer than any Sports or Super Series model - the approach angle and ground clearance matches a 911, and in profile it’s horizontal, not nose-down and poised. ![]() When the silks slip off, you process it as an altered Sports Series, not an all-new McLaren in an all-new category. Legacy components are part of the issue: Like every McLaren since 2011, the GT deploys a carbon-fiber tub, twin-turbo V8 with seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox and a midengine/rear-drive/two-seat layout. The 570GT accounted for 10 to 15 percent of Sports Series sales, so it appears to have washed its face.Īutoweek got a preview of its successor at McLaren’s Woking, U.K., headquarters and, well. "Customers told us they wanted more differentiation, more power and more luggage space, luxury and refinement (than 570GT)," explains Ian Digman, head of product management. The company’s own 570GT - a slightly softer, more practical Sports Series with a side-opening rear hatch - takes a bullet to make room. More relevantly, at $209K, the GT is comparable to a (Sports Series) 570S Spider, and McLaren hopes you’ll buy it instead of a Ferrari Portofino, Aston-Martin DB11 or Porsche 911 Turbo. That car combined a McLaren M6 race car chassis with a new lightweight coupe body and Bartz-tuned Chevy engine, though just three were built before the company namesake’s tragic death in 1970. To give its new model legitimacy, McLaren references the 1960s M6GT with which founder Bruce McLaren experimented. It’s a GT called GT, and it sits in an all-new GT category that overlaps with the Sports and Super Series models but wears comfier clothing. If you’ve only just come to grips with the McLaren filing system, there’s a new model that won’t be bound by its existing Sports, Super and Ultimate Series pigeonholes. ![]() ![]() ![]() This section is optional but can be beneficial for providing a quick overview.

Leading with an Ace guarantees you will win the trick. You never know when someone has voided that suit and can give you a heart or the Queen of Spades. If you have many Spades in your hand including the Queen try to pass cards which allow you to void either Diamonds or Clubs. If you have the Queen of Spades pass it unless you have many lower Spades, plan on trying to Shoot the Moon, or have other voided suits which allow you to quickly dump the Qneen on someone else in the game. This makes you less likely to get stuck eating the Queen of Spades. ![]() Pass the Ace and King of Spades unless you also have many lower Spades in your hand. If you pass the two to another player, you may be able to get rid of your highest club on the first trick with little risk. ![]() You can submit your score to the leaderboard. Whoever has the lowest score when 100 points is reached is the winner. The game ends when a player reaches 100 points. When the first player reaches the target, the game ends. Alternatively, a target score can be agreed upon. The winner is the player with the lowest score after an agreed number of deals. If you get all hearts and the queen of spades it is called “Shooting The Moon” and you can choose between removing 26 points from your score or adding 26 points to all opponent scores. At the end of each hand the total pently points accrued are added to your overall score. Scoring In HeartsĮach heart captured incurs a penalty point. The queen of spades is worth 13 points. The Queen of Spades can be led at any time. ![]() Hearts may not be led until a heart or the Queen of Spades has been played (this is called 'breaking' hearts). The winner of the trick gets all the cards and starts the next trick. The highest card of the suit led wins a trick (there is no trumps in this game). Exception: If a player has no clubs when the first trick is led, a heart or the Queen of Spades cannot be played. If a player has no cards in the suit led, a card of any other suit may be discarded. Each player must follow suit if possible. The player holding the 2 of clubs (after the passing) plays that card to start the first trick. This rotation repeats until the game ends. All players must pass their own cards before looking at the cards received from an opponent. Passing CardsĪfter looking at his or her hand, each player chooses three cards and passes them face down to another player. The trick is won by the highest card of the suit led and the trick winner then leads. If they can't, the player can play any card. Players must follow suit if able to do so. A “trick” is one round of play where each player plays one card and the resulting pile of cards makes up of the trick. In the four player game, each player is dealt thirteen cards.Ī “hand” is the time it takes to play all the cards that each player holds. Remove the Jokers and deal the cards one at a time face down clockwise. This game is for three to five players but is typically played with four. The object of the game is to be the player with the lowest score when the game ends. Many versions that are labelled as “Hearts” today are typically the Black Lady variant. It was a no-trump game for four players using 52 cards, the aim being to avoid taking any Hearts, rather than Jacks, in tricks.Ī variant emerged in Britain in the late 1930's called Black Lady which features the addition of the queen of spades as a minus card. Hearts emerged in the United States during the 1880s. A game at that time, called “Four Jacks”, involved avoiding any trick containing a Jack. Precursors to the game of Hearts originated in Spain around 1750. Hearts is a trick-taking playing card game for four players. You can toggle sound on and off using the speaker and music buttons within the game.The High Scores button shows the scores of previous games.To win, you need to try and earn the least points by passing cards to your opponents and playing the lowest card.
