![]() Ghost Leviathans are almost twice the size of Reapers, deal 84 damage per hit, and are hyper-aggressive. You’ll encounter the adult Ghost Leviathans soon enough, and these deepsea specters are a force of nature indeed. If the juveniles gave you the impression that Ghost Leviathans were pushovers, you’re about to have a rude awakening. Sustained attacks from the Reaper will destroy both of these vehicles, so you’ll need to quickly decide whether to fight or flee. A Prawn Suit and Cyclops are able to take a lot more punishment, but you’ll still want to deal with the threat quickly. They can also seriously damage the Seamoth, with each bite taking off roughly 50% of its durability. Without any upgraded defenses, Reapers can deal 80 damage to the player, with an insta-kill animation if you are at 80 health or below. Reapers can be a terrifying sight and sound to behold, and they’ve got a severe bite to back up that bark. Relocated Reapers should return home soon after abandoning a chase, however. Reapers can also drift in and out of biomes if given a reason to, such as spotting a nearby diver. Reapers are most densely populated in the Aurora’s Crash Zone, the Dunes, and the Mountains, though there are also a couple in the Bulb Zone. In addition to the ones near the Aurora, there are a total of 25 Reapers in Subnautica. ![]() Just remember, if you can hear them, they can see you. ![]() One lurks near the ship’s stern and one near the bow, and you’ll probably be well-acquainted with both before long. The first Reapers you’re likely to see, or more accurately hear, are the ones patrolling the murky waters near the Aurora. ![]() These sea scourges lurk all over the Crater, being present in a good portion of Subnautica’s biomes. The Reaper needs no introduction, likely being the first aggressive Leviathan you will encounter. With the passive Leviathans out of the way, it’s on to the main attractions. ![]() ![]() ![]() The deepest areas are the site of a large meteorite impact, for almost 100 million years ago.

Very large catchment area compared to own size. Has the smallest volume of the Great Lakes. Has more species of fish than any other lake in the world. Largest lake entirely within Canada, and the largest lake partially within the Arctic Circle ĭeepest lake in the world and largest freshwater lake in the world by volume. Longest freshwater lake in the world and third largest of any kind by volume. The largest lake (by area) that is located entirely in one country. Contains Manitoulin Island, the world's largest lake island. Largest of the Great Lakes by volume, having more water than the other four combined. Garabogazköl lagoon, if counted separately, would rank as the world's 15th largest, with an area of 18,000 square kilometres (6,900 sq mi). Geologically a small ocean rather than a lake. Lake Michigan and Lake Huron are conventionally counted as separate lakes, but hydrologically they are a single body of water, which is the world's largest lake by surface area. The Caspian Sea is conventionally considered the world's largest lake, but it is centered on an oceanic basin (a fragment of the ancient Tethys Ocean) rather than lying entirely over continental crust as all other lakes do. The list is divided in two: all lakes as conventionally defined down to 3,000 square kilometres (1,200 sq mi), and the largest lakes under a geological definition, where the Caspian Sea is considered a small ocean rather than a lake, and Lake Michigan–Huron (or "Huron–Michigan") is recognized as a single body of water. This list therefore excludes seasonal lakes such as Kati Thanda–Lake Eyre (maximum area 9,500 km 2, 3,700 sq mi), Mar Chiquita Lake (Córdoba) (maximum area 6,000 km 2, 2,300 sq mi), Lake Torrens (maximum area 5,745 km 2, 2,218 sq mi) and Great Salt Lake (maximum area, 1988, 8,500 km 2, 3,300 sq mi). This is especially true of salt lakes in arid climates. The area of some lakes can vary considerably over time, either seasonally or from year to year. This is a pair of lists of terrestrial lakes with a surface area of more than approximately 3,000 square kilometres (1,200 sq mi), ranked by area, excluding reservoirs and lagoons.

It’s water-resistant up to 80 minutes-that counts for sweating during a run or a game, not just swimming!-and it has an SPF of 50, which is one of the higher SPFs on our list. Those that pull this important double-duty protection against sunburn and premature aging are known as broad-spectrum sunscreens, and Sun Bum’s water-resistant formula is the one that tops our list.Īpproved by dermatologists as an oil-free sunscreen that won’t clog your pores or cause breakouts, this Sun Bum sunscreen is as good for everyday sun protection as it is for long days having fun in the sun. The best body sunscreens shield from both UVA and UVB rays. Who it isn’t for: People who want a fragrance-free sunscreen or a mineral sunscreen. Who it’s for: People who want a waterproof, oil-free, and reef-friendly sunscreen with broad-spectrum protection. “They will inherently have a higher SPF value because they block the complete UVA and UVB spectrum.” ![]() “Mineral sunscreens that contain zinc oxide and titanium dioxide are the most effective complete spectrum blockage,” he says.

Much better overall XC performance than the soft, round-flexing Epoch/XCD 10th Mtn- both on dense snow and deep soft snow. The Storetind absolutely blows the 88 away as a downhill ski! My Åsnes Storetind is an equally good XC ski in deep soft snow- but it sucks in comparison to the 88 when XC skiing on dense consolidated snow. (And there are better deep snow XCD skis than the 88…) If one wants the better XC performance in deep snow- then the 88 is a clear choice.īut if deep soft snow is not an issue- the 78 is faster than the 88. The 88 is certainly more versatile than the 78.īUT- if you don’t need the extra float of the 88, the 78 is faster…įrom my perspective the 88 is simply a wider version of the 78. The 88- at 68mm underfoot- offers more flotation and grip in deep soft snow. The 88 is wider- and therefore a slower XC ski than the 78. The flex and camber of the 88 & 78 are basically identical. ![]() The deep snow flotation is MUCH greater with the 88. The 88 has a more effective XC trail-breaking tip. is easier to evenly pressure when downhill skiing.īUT- the current E99 Xtralite has more tip rocker than the 88, and- if one is willing to full-weight the downhill ski- the E99 offers a shorter turn-radius than the 88- despite the extra camber of the E99 (weird-eh?) offers better climbing traction than the E99. requires less of a focused “kick” than the E99. The Excursion 88 is easier to pressure than the more cambered E99. The Ingstad BC climbs better and offers wondrous turning.īut the 88 is much better XC skiing on consolidated snow.ĭeep snow XC performance is a bit better with the 88 due to the wider waist. The Ingstad BC absolutely kicks the 88’s ass in steep terrain. Hard to say which one performs best when XC skiing in deep, soft snow…I would suggest the 88 with its full 68mm underfoot. In short- the 88 is a better all-round cruiser than the current E-109. There is no question that the E-109 is a lot more fun downhill than the 88, but- despite the extra camber of the E109- the 88 is a better XC ski over a wider range of snow conditions. The current E-109 has a ridiculously soft shovel that bows like a wet noodle rendering it completely unstable in deep, soft snow. The current E-109 has oodles of tip rocker- giving it a much shorter XC glide zone on consolidated snow. The E-109 should offer better XC performance…. The current E-109 is more cambered underfoot than the 88. (But if one was considering the Eon for its downhill manners- there are MUCH better downhill XC skis…) The Eon- with its soft tip and flex- is easier to pressure into skiddy, smeary turns… It is a better XC ski on all snow contexts. The 88 is a better Nordic touring ski than the Madshus Eon. Lengths: to 199cm (could do with a 209cm option).ěase: sintered tip/tail “Off-Track Crown” waxless-scaled insert.Ĝamber-rocker profile: slightly Nordic-rockered tip camber-and-a-half underfoot flat tail.Longitudinal flex: full-length, stable flex stiff.Tip shape: moderately-raised (from a Nordic ski perspective).This ski greatly reminds me of the Åsnes Combat (MT68) USGI surplus ski (read the review)- though the 88 is much lighter and easier to maneuver than the USGI ski. Quite simply the 88 is the best XC overall ski I have tested in recent years with a waist as wide as 68mm. That being said it will turn it is very stable and light and responsive downhill. With only 20mm of sidecut significant and stiff camber and only slight tip rocker- the 88 is not the downhill-focused XCD-skiers dream (especially if you get it long enough to offer decent XC performance). The “Easy-Skin” kicker skin insert is the stuff of dreams- very quickly increasing climbing grip and/or XC grip on snow that the scales won’t grip on. Its full 68mm width underfoot gives it significant XC flotation and grip in deep soft snow.įischer’s “Off-Track Crown” waxless scale insert offers highly effective grip (for a scaled base) and the stiff camber-and-a-half underfoot releases the scales form the snow when you stride forwards. Its full-length stable flex makes it completely stable in deep soft snow. ![]() It is the only Nordic touring ski that I have ever tested with a waist as wide as 68mm that actually offers very good XC performance on dense/consolidated snow. It- like the Traverse 78- performs well as a XC ski in every imaginable snow context. With a XC focus- this ski offers a simply amazing range of performance. ![]() This is a superb backcountry-cross-country ski. (To do this review justice- please read my review on the Traverse 78 first!)

One interesting feature is a font that allows people with reading disabilities, like dyslexia, to read more easily as well. ReadMe! can be synced along between your phone and tablet. The Bee Line Reader uses color coding in order to train you to read at speeds that are 2–3 times faster than your normal reading speed. ReadMe! is another reader that utilizes the RSVP style, along with the Bee Line Reader style. Designed to minimize eye movement, which takes up as much as 80% of your time spent reading, the developers of Spritz claim the tool can help you read at a rate of up to 1,000 words per minute. Spritz allows you to read one word at a time at a certain WPM rate (similar to the Spreeder tool). The color gradient helps guide your eyes from the end of one line of text to the beginning of the next line, essentially helping you read faster and taking some of the strain off your eyes. It's integrated with two unique speed reading tools called BeeLine Reader and Spritz.īeeLine Reader takes a color-coded approach to speed reading by adding a color gradient to each line of text.

Here is the list of the best speed reading apps for your smartphone, tablet, or desktop computer for advancing your reading skills. You can certainly practice reading faster on your own with a stopwatch or timer, but chances are you might better improve by using a speed reading app that teaches you how to read at a pace the works best for you. When there's so much to read yet so little time to do it, being a quick reader sure does help. Some speed reading apps even allow you to track your progress. Speed reading apps can help us read faster without sacrificing reading comprehension. Absorbing and understanding the information as you read it at a lightning speed is the real challenge. Learning how to read faster is really only half the battle. Hence, we need to take concrete measures to improve reading skills. However, effective and efficient reading is of great importance in every sphere of life – personal, social, academic and professional fields. This makes reading an unpleasant and time-consuming task. We end up reading much below our natural potential speed and find it difficult to read efficiently. Many of us, once we are out of school or college we hardly pay attention to developing our reading abilities in terms of speed and comprehension. ![]() Speed Reading Apps helps in making you read faster and thus improves your learning skill.
