![]() This is why a homeowner lawn should always look better than a pro lawn (in theory) because you have the advantage of observation and early detection. Now, there are disadvantages to hiring a pro primary being that you see your lawn every day so if you are DIY then you can essentially be correcting problems every day in between your regular apps. This DIY Lawn Care thing is not so difficult if you educate yourself! Here is a video on choosing weed control from the local Home Depot.Īnd here is another video showing you how to spray your own lawn for weeds. That said, I have an AWESOME YouTube channel where I teach this stuff every week. and call your high school math teacher and thank him or her for giving you the brain skills to understand this stuff. This is the math/thinking that will set the basis for the rest of this guide. If you have a 7,000 sq ft lawn, then each blanket spray will cost you $20.72 So if this bottle covers 34,780 sq ft then: If you haven’t already, go measure your lawn!Ĭost wise, you can break it down into a “per 1,000” cost and visualize it that way. So this bottle would then last you more than 2 years. The thing is, with this product, you shouldn’t need more than 2 blanket sprays a year anyway. If you have a 7,000 sq ft lawn, then you can get almost 5 full blanket sprays from that one bottle. This tells you that with this rate you can cover 34,780 sq ft if you are blanket spraying weed control. (one of the best all-around weed killers for warm season turf) It’s not possible to purchase small enough amounts to just last 1 season, so you essentially have to make the investment for a few years, all up front. This is especially apparent in items like weed control concentrates that may last a homeowner for years. Whereas when you purchase your own products, you have to shoulder this cost. This is one of the advantages a pro lawn service offers - convenience. They shoulder the cost of buying in bulk and storing it, and you only pay for the amount of chemical used for your application - no more, no less. The primary reason DIY seems so expensive, and sometimes hiring TG doesn’t, is that with TG, they come out and spray only the exact amount of product needed that day and that is essentially all you pay for. This is an interesting perception and one I want to address. More expensive than when they had a company like TruGreen (TG) on retainer. Recently I’m seeing some folks say their DIY lawn care is becoming expensive. In the end, some folks that read this may find they prefer to have a company like TG do their lawn, great. My primary goal, however, is to educate.So in that vein, I am trying to take market share from them. I want more homeowners to DIY so I can grow my audience. They serve a purpose but they are essentially my competition if you think about it. And kudos for offering transparent pricing online. Don’t take it personally TG, I love all of the things you taught me when I hired and trained dominant sales teams for you. ![]() I am using them because everyone knows the name, and they are transparent with their pricing online too.

The simile also symbolizes the pain and heartbreak the narrator is feeling. Underwood compares a tear drop falling from one’s face to a glass falling and breaking on the floor. One example is in the first stanza: “one tear hit the hard wood, it fell like broken glass”. Similes, a comparison of two things using the words like or as, are also portrayed in Wasted. Instead of saying the endings and prefixes Underwood illustrates her southern drawl by changing the way the words are pronounced. ![]() Such as “wanna’, gotta, gonna’, cause’, ain’t, and drivin’”. ![]() A southern, twangy diction is also evident with the way words are sung. For instance, “she said sometimes love slips away… for one split second… so she took another step and said” all has an alliteration with the letter ‘s’. Some literary and poetic devices Carrie Underwood incorporates into her song Wasted include similes, alliteration, diction, imagery, allusion, and ambiguity.Īlliteration, several words with the reoccurring same consonants, is present multiple times throughout this song. Underwood’s song, Wasted, hit number one on the Billboard Hot Country Songs in April 2007, and was a track on the fastest selling album debut in Nielsen Sound Scan history. Carrie Underwood is an extremely talented artist who enhances her compositions by applying literary and poetic devices into her pieces. ![]() The setEntirePath() method is used to set the path’s anchor points and curves. In this example, we have created a path using the pen tool with four anchor points. Adobe Illustrator Pen Code var penPath = () DIRECT SELECTION TOOLįinally, the pen tool also has a “direct selection tool”, which allows you to select and manipulate individual anchor points and paths. To use this mode, select the delete anchor point tool and click on the anchor point that you want to delete. ![]() Third mode is the “delete anchor point tool”, which allows you to remove anchor points from a path. To use this mode, select the add anchor point tool and click on the path where you want to add the anchor point. The next mode is the “add anchor point tool”, which allows you to add additional anchor points to an existing path. ![]() You can then drag the anchor point handles to adjust the curve of the path. To create a curved path, select the “convert anchor point tool” and click on the anchor point that you want to convert. The first mode is the “pen tool mode”, which allows you to create straight paths with sharp angles. The pen tool has several different modes that allow you to create different types of paths. ![]() You can also use the Convert Anchor Point Tool (shortcut: Shift+C) to convert a smooth point into a corner point or vice versa. For example, if you hold down the Shift key while creating a curve, Illustrator will constrain the angle of the curve to multiples of 45 degrees. The Pen Tool also has a few hidden features that can come in handy. If you hold down the Alt key while creating a curve, you can create a sharp corner instead of a curve. You can adjust the curve by dragging the handles that appear on the point. To use the Pen Tool, click on the artboard to create a point, and then click and drag to create a curve. The Pen Tool can be daunting for beginners, but mastering it can open up a whole world of creative possibilities. It allows you to create and edit paths and shapes with precision and control.

![]() You can alternatively decide to build a deck all about flooding the board or powering up attacking allies by going with Demacia and Frejlord.Įach faction’s core identity is intended to be very different, and with more factions to be added down the line, it’s likely that the game’s meta will evolve for as long as new champions are introduced. You can build a Zaun and Ionia combination deck that relies on cards that reward you for both making and spending spells. ![]() The champions themselves all buy into each faction’s playstyle fantasy, with flashy animations that depict their unique personalities and strengths.Įach deck is built from two core factions which two factions you choose is left entirely up to you. The factions have their own unique playstyles that span the whole spectrum from aggro to control, spell-heavy to flood-dependent, and more. They’re souped-up cards representative of characters from League of Legends who are somewhere between Legendaries in Hearthstone and Planeswalkers in Magic: The Gathering-game-changing because they’re stronger than your average unit, but not game-breaking. You’re not playing for rounds of ale at a tavern this feels like a conflict of a uniquely larger scale because of the game’s insistence on you not embodying a hero but instead commanding them.Įach faction has these heroes, though they’re called champions. The realm of Runeterra feels fully realized here, and part of that is how the game revolves around the various in-universe factions that are currently playable: Piltover & Zaun, Bilgewater, Demacia, Freljord, Ionia, Noxus, and the Shadow Isles. The latest step in fleshing out this world is Legends of Runeterra, Riot Games’ flagship contribution to the current online card game market-with DNA that’s a highly entertaining splice job between streamlined design sensibilities and touches that harken back to the original card game great, Magic: The Gathering. The MOBA has undergone various lore overhauls, but centralized all of its bits and pieces in 2016 to come up with a vision for Runeterra and its competing factions, as well as the backstories of the game’s champions. Runeterra is the world of League of Legends, Riot’s MOBA that has arguably experienced a Golden Age of esports in the past few years. |
