20240406: the History of LEGO Castle day 097. 6047 / 6099 Traitor Transport / Traitor Transport with Cave (1997, 145 / 146 pieces, 93 / 94 different parts) DRAGONS!!!! The Traitor Transport and the Traitor Transport with cave is mostly a light gray wagon cage with a decorative red roof and yellow and black highlights built on a black base with brown 33mm wagon wheels pulled by a black dragon with trans neon orange wings. This set comes with three minifigures. -The Bat Lord has a black helmet with bat wings on either side, a yellow minifigure head with an inverted "V" hairline, pointed eyebrows and mustache, a light gray cloth cape with bottom fringes and a black bat with red accents, black arms with a printed red torso with a yellow and black collar, five vertical black lines with rows of yellow dots, a silver belt, dark gray legs with a black belt, a chrome silver sword, and a trans red 4L antenna pole with a black bat on top. -The next minifigure for this set has a red torso with silver scale mail print and black arms, plain blue legs, a yellow minifigure head with brown bangs, mustache, and beard, a black knight helmet with front grill, and a medium white feather plume. -The last minifigure has a black axe wielder helmet, yellow minifigure face with black bangs, mustache, and forehead tuft, a printed light gray torso with red Fleur de Lis pattern, dark gray legs with a black belt, a black whip, and a triangular Fright Knights shield. The black dragon, which is built from a body, two arms, a tail, a top head, two trans neon orange wings, and a trans neon orange flame and the body appears in three other sets, 4818 Dragon Rider, 6007 Bat Lord, and 6097 Night Lord's Castle. There's not too much in the way of rare or unique parts in this set but the light gray horse barding with ruffles and printed red design with black harness lines was only found in this set and 6097 Night Lord's Castle and this is the first appearance of the light gray triangular Fright Knights shield with a black bat and red highlights on a silver background with a red border (which appears in five other sets, 5383 Castle Accessories, 6031 Fright Force, 6087 Witch's Magic Manor, 6097 Night Lord's Castle, and 9376 Castle Set from Education and Dacta). The brick built attachment for the dragon to the wagon is the most articulate wagon harness we've seen yet, allowing for the most versatile movement yet. The dragon can even be next to the wagon, facing the opposite direction! Also, this is probably the easiest to use cage or dungeon from the castle subthemes yet :) The only difference between 6047 and 6099 is the large studless dark gray dragon cave that came with 6099 (not pictured here). Parts inventory for this set can be found at BrickLink or Rebrickable and a free download of the instructions is available on ToysPeriod.

Not in the webcomic (end of MA arc update)
One of the questions often asked by fans  is ‘when did character xyz appear in the webcomic’? I started to think  about who is and isn’t in the webcomic and realised that the list is  quite extensive.
As it’s quite long, I’ll start with the discussion. Basically, if a character absolutely doesn’t have to be in the story just that moment, ONE will leave them out of the webcomic. All the cool, interesting things that would add context or even just be great to  explore, sorry, can’t have them – that must have been driving him crazy.  Ah well, the art of great story-telling is knowing what to leave out. I salute ONE’s self-discipline.

Suiryu (webcomic chapter 124)
Zenko (not yet seen; explicitly mentioned in chapter 125)
C: Significantly increased in presence
This  is a bit of a subjective category because there are more pages in the manga, so of course characters get to show up more! I’ve therefore looked at characters where their increased presence gives us a significantly different view of them, serves to change their character development or modifies the plot. I’m leaving Garou and Saitama out for  what I hope will be obvious reasons. Your mileage may vary. :)​
Bomb
Justice at last! No longer the other old man who exists for colour commentary and getting beat up, his relationship to Bang has been expanded on so we understand how integral he has been to making Bang the person he is. We also finally get to appreciate what a redoubtable fighter he is in his own right.
Death Gatling
Added:  In the webcomic, all we saw of Death Gatling was him being set up as  bait to draw out Garou, who obligingly attacked him. There’s so much more to his experiences, his thinking and his organisational ability that it’s not even funny.
​Dr. Kuseno
Added:  In the webcomic, he appeared briefly in chapter 40 and then not again until 106, and then even more briefly. In the manga, we’ve gotten to  know more about who he is, how he interacts with people and what his  relationship with Genos is like. We learn that he uses drones to retrieve Genos when his misadventures have gone a little too badly amiss, but isn’t afraid to show up in person.Fun little meta here. In his secondary character poll, ONE  had Dr. Kuseno say roughly the following: ‘I’m going to become a   semi-regular character by supporting Genos occasionally…’ Or so I used   to think. But it’s actually hilarious how rarely I show up lol.“ Link.  And then Murata cracked his knuckles…​
Drive Knight
Added:  Everything after the Alien Invasion arc. In the webcomic, he disappeared in the aftermath of the Alien Invasion and did not appear again until chapter 138. In the manga, we finally get to see how he fights, get an idea of how he thinks and see his actions regarding the Monster Association.  As of chapter 93, we finally learn that he is a cyborg, making him the fourth known cyborg in the series. He’s shown in  the manga that he is a very calculating and capable fighter -- he's the sole S-Class hero to have single-handedly subdued a cadre. He's also given us more of a look at his true agenda, even if we're yet to see its full extent.​
Genos
Added: His tussle with Sonic aside, everything from chapter 45 - 83 is entirely new and 83 onwards is greatly expanded, showing us a much clearer view of his progression. The result of all his battles showed clearly in how he picked Garou apart, whereas in the webcomic he’d just unleashed a flurry of wild swings that’d gotten him a cracked face for his troubles. Going strictly by the webcomic, he’s mostly just there and the one day comes out and says he can fight dragon-level monsters now and you’re like 'What? From where?'  In the manga, the progression past that point is so much more evident and justifiable. He has grown as a person as well, something Saitama himself has noticed (nothing like this has happened in the webcomic).​
Metal Bat
Added:  Seeing how he actually interacts with Zenko, which has been both heart-warming and quite important to how the story goes. Also added has been his bodyguard role with Narinki and Waganma, which led to his fighting multiple monsters and eventually with Garou. Without this, we would not have learned about his Fighting Spirit as of yet. Otherwise, his webcomic presence consisted of appearing in the Alien Invasion arc  and then not at all until after the Monster Association arc for a couple of panels. So much of what makes Metal Bat a deserved fan favourite comes from the manga, not the webcomic. No explanation for his missing out on the raid was given. He’s come out to fight despite his injuries, which is to his credit.​
Phoenixman
Added: From a ridiculous monster who died in a flash, Phoenixman lived up to his name, coming back again and again. He’s also proved to be a terror in another way: intelligent, deeply manipulative, and able to access a spiritual world, this monster was far too dangerous to live. Unfortunately, he was also too interesting to die. Currently depowered, we await the future depredations of... Monster Chick Man.
Pyskos
Added: Talk about a Major Villain Upgrade! She’s gone from someone with a terrifying vision and a half-baked idea to wipe out the world with a pathetic number of monsters to one of the most dangerous fiends in the series.
Tank Top Master
Added:  A lot more about his relationship with his Tank Topper Army. As with  Metal Bat, he’s pushed himself out of hospital to go rescue people, then  get pulled into fighting.  We’ve also gotten to see a relationship  develop between himself and Mumen Rider, which looks to have been  mutually-beneficial. ​
Tareo
Added:  Now he is named. In the webcomic he was just the ugly kid. He used to  be a random kid that Garou happened to save and chased after the  monsters to rescue from their headquarters. Now, over several chapters,  we see him develop a friendship with Garou, how important protecting him  has been as a catalyst for developing Garou’s strength and how vital a  link to Garou’s humanity he is. No longer just a morality pet, he  actually gets a personality, we get to see his personality in his own  right, we see his experiences through his world view and we are going to  see how he develops as a character.​
D: Removed in the manga
Owing to copyright issues, Goddess Glasses has been removed in favour Do-S (or  Super S) and the Hotrod Brothers have been replaced by the ninjas Gale  Wind and Hell Fire. In both cases, their concepts remain very similar,  but ONE has taken the opportunity to greatly expand their role and  integrate what they do more closely to the plot. In particular, Do-S appears to have been a great motivator for Fubuki to up her game and do something about her sister. The monster ninjas, in intervening in Sonic’s life, gave us an insight into the ninja village that Sonic came  from and their fierce (if super short) battle with Flashy Flash was far  more entertaining and insightful than the webcomic equivalent.

Market Day in Egloron
Another cart test in Galen's Row. Love this little vegetable stand MOC by tile.n.dye but of course, my cobble street isn't very kind to it.
I'll think about upgrading the street a little but I am very wary of all the weird reflections on tiles. I also am not a huge fan of completely studless surfaces. It doesn't look LEGO enough to me when everything's so smooth.
Here's a photo with the open version of the cart: Medieval Fruit and Vegetable Merchant

Winter Car Tires: A Comprehensive Guide
Tumblr media
Image source: https://unsplash.com/@tiagolouvize
Winter driving can be a challenging experience, especially if you live in a region that experiences heavy snow and icy conditions. While most cars come equipped with all-season tires, they may not provide the level of traction needed to navigate through winter weather conditions. That's where winter car tires come in. In this comprehensive guide, we'll take a look at why winter car tires are important, what to look for when buying them, the types available, how to install and maintain them, and the benefits they offer.
Why winter car tires are important?
Winter car tires are designed to provide better traction and grip on snow and ice-covered roads, which is crucial for safe driving. All-season tires, while suitable for most conditions, may not be able to handle the extreme conditions that come with winter. Winter car tires can help prevent skidding, sliding, and loss of control, reducing the risk of accidents.
What are winter car tires?
Winter car tires are designed specifically for use in winter conditions, offering superior grip on snow and ice-covered roads. They are made with a softer rubber compound that remains pliable in colder temperatures, allowing for better traction. They also have a tread design that features larger and deeper grooves, providing better traction and grip. Winter car tires are available in a variety of sizes and types, depending on your driving needs.
What to look for when buying winter car tires?
a. Tread design and depth - Look for tires with a tread design that offers better traction in winter conditions. Winter tires have deeper and wider grooves than all-season tires, allowing for better grip on snow and ice.
b. Rubber compounds - Winter tires are made with a softer rubber compound that stays pliable in cold temperatures, providing better traction. Look for tires with a higher silica content, which helps improve flexibility and traction.
c. Size and speed rating - Make sure to choose the correct size and speed rating for your car. Check your car's manual or consult a tire specialist for advice.
Types of winter car tires
a. Studded tires - Studded tires have metal studs embedded in the tread, providing excellent traction on ice. They are particularly useful in areas with heavy snow and ice.
b. Studless tires - Studless winter tires have a tread design that provides better traction on snow and ice, without the use of metal studs. They are suitable for areas with moderate snow and ice.
c. Performance winter tires - Performance winter tires are designed for high-performance vehicles, providing better handling and traction in cold weather conditions.
Installing winter car tires
a. When to install winter car tires - Winter tires should be installed when the temperature drops below 7°C (45°F). This is the temperature at which all-season tires start to lose their grip and become less effective in winter conditions.
b. How to install winter car tires - It's important to have winter tires installed by a professional. They will ensure that the tires are properly aligned, balanced, and inflated to the correct pressure. This helps to maximize the performance of the tires and ensure a safe and comfortable driving experience.
Maintaining winter car tires
a. Inflation pressure - It's important to check the inflation pressure of your winter tires regularly, as cold temperatures can cause tire pressure to drop. Make sure to maintain the recommended pressure as specified by the manufacturer.
b. Regular inspections - Regularly inspect your tires for signs of wear and tear, such as cracks, punctures, and bulges. This will help you identify any potential issues before they become more serious.
c. Rotating tires - Rotate your tires regularly to ensure even wear and tear. This will help to extend the lifespan of your tires and ensure optimal performance.
Benefits of winter car tires
a. Improved traction - Winter tires provide better traction and grip on snow and ice-covered roads, reducing the risk of skidding, sliding, and loss of control.
b. Increased safety - Winter tires can help prevent accidents and keep you and your passengers safe on the road.
c. Longer lifespan of tires - By using winter tires in the winter months, you can extend the lifespan of your all-season tires, reducing the need for frequent tire replacements.
Conclusion
Winter car tires are a must-have for safe and comfortable winter driving. By choosing the right tires, maintaining them properly, and using them in the correct conditions, you can enjoy the benefits of improved traction, increased safety, and longer-lasting tires.

Benefits of Temporary Barrier Walls in Construction
Temporary Barrier Walls are used at construction sites in institutional, healthcare, industrial or commercial settings to manage the cons truction dust and debris. Not only do they contain dust and debris, but can also hide areas, isolate dust, and cordon off the other areas of a facility thus making them useful for offices, construction sites, hospitals, stores, etc.
Tumblr media
These systems are designed to be highly reusable and durable and can be set up quickly and easily requiring less labour to improve the profitability of the project. Construction and renovation projects in commercial, healthcare and industrial settings have challenges including keeping off the, debris, dust, odor, contaminants, and other mess, preserving the workspace flow, and maintaining a professional look.
Temporary barrier walls are used to overcome these challenges, separating a construction site producing debris, dust, odor, and contaminants, from the rest of business operations to allow them to continue uninterrupted. They can be used during remodeling, concrete cutting, scarifying, reflooring, tenant improvements, installation of new equipment, restoration, and reparation projects.
Temporary barrier walls are poly-engineered film stretching from floor to ceiling, thus creating a studless wall without framing. This prevents dust and debris from spreading, confines workers to their area, keeps employees safe, and prevents the spread of any unwanted contaminants or odors as follows.
Also Read : How To Build Gabion Walls
1. Dust and Debris Containment
Dust and debris containment is of significant importance in construction or remodeling projects. Often, dirty and dust fills the air in construction making them harmful for construction workers. The dust and debris created during construction projects can also spread beyond the construction site into clean areas during renovations or expansions of existing facilities. Dust carries bacteria posing serious health risks in all environments, including health facilities. Hence dust control is essential for protecting the wellness and health of all patients, staff members, and visitors during renovation or construction work.
Temporary Barrier Walls provide airtight containment, construction and renovation in any industry including healthcare facilities, retail stores, restaurants, data centers, telecom, laboratories, and academic institutions. They also provide protection from drywall dust created from finishing walls during installation, and the dust or debris created by their removal.
2. Maintaining Rigid Safety Standards & Security:
Temporary barrier wall systems maintain appearances during renovation work, keep clean and cleanable walls, and protect the building occupants from dangerous dust and debris in facilities that operate round the clock. Patients, caregivers, staff and visitors are exposed to risks even during off hours work in health facilities and old age homes. Hence, temporary barrier walls are engineered and designed as per critical safety standards. They improve worker safety and reduce your construction project’s environmental impact.

3. Minimize Disruptions in Day-to-Day Business:
Facilities providing essential services cannot be interrupted during renovations or remodeling. Hospitals cannot stop treating patients, nor can other clients allow their daily business and production to be interrupted during construction and renovation projects, because shutdowns result in tremendous losses. To continue the workflow with minimal disruptions, Temporary Barrier Walls can be customized to protect your particular environment without such hassles.
4. Meet the Deadlines
Projects generally get prolonged due to material delays, errors in shipment, and other factors that are unexpected and not in your control. In such cases, construction of a drywall can only hold up a project and lead to further delay. This can be avoided with temporary barrier walls or poly-engineered film which can be installed within a few hours. Avoiding labor costs and drywall removal time allows for faster project completion.
5. Within Your Budget:
Installing temporary barrier walls or poly-engineered film is a budget-friendly option allowing you to reduce the labor costs that may be incurred while constructing dry walls. These do not require storage and are an easy, quick, and cost-effective solution for containment. Hence, installing temporary barrier walls or poly-engineered film save installation labor costs and help you start the primary construction process sooner. They save HVAC and general clean-up costs and reduce the liability and costs of replacing merchandise of adjacent businesses damaged by dust, when dry walls are installed or removed.
Being 100% reusable, they eliminate storage, warehousing, and disposal costs since dumpster and landfill fees incurred due to destruction of dry walls are avoided. Their reusability eliminates the transportation, energy, and other costs associated with studs, drywall, mud, and paint manufacturing. As the project progresses through the construction phases, there is no need to destroy and completely rebuild additional barriers.
6. Reduction of Noise
The noise created during construction and renovation projects due to the tools and equipment and voices of construction workers can disturb the employees working in the vicinity of the construction site. Temporary wall barriers can reduce the noise pollution in the rest of the facility thus creating a calmer, quieter, and more comfortable environment. Installing temporary wall barriers is noiseless, allowing work to continue unhindered during business hours, rather than paying overtime to workers. Good quality reusable temporary barrier walls can reduce renovation noise by half.
7. Management of traffic:
Managing the flow of people around a construction zone can be a challenge. Temporary wall barriers direct people through the facility, and cordon off construction areas to visitors and non-workers thus improving safety, providing a better experience, helping construction workers to know where they need to go, and in what areas the work is in progress. This exposes them to lesser dust and debris during the ongoing work. They also allow more efficient repositioning and configuration of walls through various phases of the project.
Conclusion
Thus, the benefits of temporary construction barriers are many and vary. They are not only essential for building and worker safety, but also give you a better project outcome.

Best Tires for Snow and Ice: for Your Vehicle in 2023
Tumblr media
As winter approaches, many drivers start to think about the best tires for navigating through snow and ice safely. With so many tires out there, using the best winter tires for your car can be difficult. Improvements in technology have resulted in a variety of tires designed specifically for driving on snow and icy roads. These tires are designed with deeper treads, softer rubber compounds, and specialized features like siping and studs to provide better traction on slippery surfaces.
In this article, Today we will tell you about some of the best tires for snow and ice.  Whether you require a tire that works well on ice, slush, or deep snow, there is bound to be a suitable alternative. So, buckle up and get ready to discover the best tires for keeping you and your passengers safe on winter roads.
Why Winter Tires Are Important?
Winter tires are an essential investment for drivers who live in areas with cold and snowy winters. These tires are specifically engineered to provide greater grip, handling, and braking performance in winter driving conditions, making them safer in these conditions than all-season or summer tires.
The rubber composition used in the production of winter tires distinguishes them from other types of tires. Winter tires are composed of a softer rubber that remains malleable in colder temperatures, allowing them to maintain traction in snowy and icy conditions. In contrast, all-season and summer tires become stiff and lose their traction in colder temperatures.
Winter tires also have deeper treads with specialized designs that help to channel away slush and water, reducing the risk of hydroplaning. Additionally, some winter tires are equipped with siping, which are thin slits in the tread that provide additional biting edges for improved traction on snow and ice.
Ultimately, investing in winter tires is crucial for drivers who want to stay safe on winter roads. While they may cost more than all-season or summer tires, the improved performance and safety they offer make them well worth the investment for drivers in snowy and icy climates.
Types of Winter Tires
When the tires are mainly divided into two categories 1. studded and 2. studless. Studded tires have metal studs embedded in the tread that grip the road and provide extra traction. However, studded tires are not legal in all states and provinces, and they can also be noisy and cause damage to some road surfaces. Studless tires, on the other hand, use a combination of special rubber compounds and tread designs to provide excellent traction on snow and ice without the use of studs.
What to Look for When Choosing Winter Tires
Choosing the correct winter tires for your car is essential for safe and comfortable winter driving. We should follow a few things to keep in mind while choosing the best tires for snow and ice.
Tread Design: The tread design of a winter tire is one of the most critical factors to consider. Winter tires should have deep and wide grooves that allow snow and slush to be expelled from the tire's path. Additionally, look for tires with multiple biting edges, also known as sipes, as they provide increased traction on slippery surfaces.
Rubber Compound: Winter tires are made of a softer rubber compound that remains pliable in colder temperatures, providing a better grip on ice and snow. Look for tires with a high silica content in their rubber compound, as it provides better handling and braking on snow and ice.
Size: Choose tires that are the correct size for your vehicle. Oversized or undersized tires can negatively affect performance and safety.
Studding: Studded tires provide excellent traction on icy surfaces, but they're not legal in some areas. Make sure to check your local laws before purchasing studded tires.
Price: Winter tires can be expensive, but they are an investment in safety. Make sure to consider your budget and choose the best tire within your means.
