Moreover, the documentary includes footage from SAR operations - including e.g. The documentary follows a team of Sirius and Station Specialist aspirants and their journey towards Greenland and employment in the Joint Arctic. The language of the documentary is Danish. In 2019, the Danish Broadcasting Corporation broadcast a four-part documentary about the Joint Arctic Command. It has provided units for international tasks, such as the environmental recovery vessel Gunnar Seidenfaden for the cleanup after the Prestige oil spill and the ocean patrol vessel Thetis for the protection force programme of WFP chartered ships at the Horn of Africa. The 1st Squadron is administratively based at Naval Base Frederikshavn. It is the 1st Squadron that handles tasks pertaining to Arctic Ocean affairs, such as maritime defence and enforcement of sovereignty in Greenlandic and Faroese territorial waters. Both Island Commands Faroes and Greenland were previously also components of the NATO Command Structure (NCS), but there is no confirmation that the new Arctic Command is in the NCS as well. The command acts as the connection point and coordinator of cooperation between the armed forces and local authorities. As a result of the Defence Agreement 2010-2014, it was decided to close the two commands and replace them with the joint service Arctic Command. On 31 October 2012, the Island Command Faroes and Island Command Greenland were merged under the name Joint Arctic Command, which is a joint operational command with serving personnel from the Army, Navy and Air Force, Danish Armed Forces as well as civilians. In short, the Joint Arctic Command handles military tasks, coast guard duties and disaster response - all in one organisation. The command also handles tasks such as fisheries inspection, Search and Rescue (SAR), patient transport and other tasks that support the civil society. Joint Arctic Command's primary mission in peacetime is to ensure Danish sovereignty by monitoring the area around the Faroe Islands and Greenland.

The insane popularity of the mall ultimately meant that corporations built too many of them. Seph Lawless The empty mall at Rolling Acres in Akron, Ohio. More than 30,000 live plants act as natural air purifiers, which is helpful as the mall is large enough to require its own zip code.īoth Southdale and The Mall of America still stand today, but whether or not they'll survive the culling of retail chains, or succumb and become dead malls, remains to be seen. With no central heating, indoor temperatures are maintained year-round with solar energy, skylights, and lighting. This may seem like it'd be an environmental disaster, but the mall does its part to be green. The gigantic Mall of America takes up 96.4 acres - enough to fit seven Yankee Stadiums inside. ![]() Minnesota also hosts one of the biggest malls in the nation, and it attracts approximately 40 million visitors a year. It cost $20 million, which went a long way back in 1956. ![]() It has undergone numerous renovations and store closings over the years, but when Southdale first opened, it was downright glamorous. "You should have left downtown downtown," architect Frank Lloyd Wright grumpily proclaimed during his visit to Southdale. The new malls were introverted: Everything was focused on the inside. Until this first enclosed shopping mall, retail areas were characteristically extroverted. Americans were enthralled by their automobiles, and the mall would be primarily used for shopping, but also for relaxation, green space, food, and fun. Gruen wanted to recreate the pedestrian experience of European cities by designing a place for the community in the deserts of suburbia. It has a central atrium, two floors, and escalators. Designed by Victor Gruen in 1956, the Southdale Mall is a climate-controlled complex. The idea of the American mall began in Minnesota, and that's where it reached its peak.Įdina, Minnesota is home to the very first enclosed shopping mall. To see all those big looming spaces so empty now - it's a childhood haunting." What Shopping Centers Were Like Before The Era Of Dead Malls We were the last of the free-range kids, roaming around malls, not really buying anything, but just looking. Gillian Flynn, author of Gone Girl, says, "For kids of the '80s especially, dead malls have a very strong allure. Today, as abandoned malls have become the norm, the very notion of these indoor shopping centers has taken on an entirely different character. Mallrats, Clueless, The Blues Brothers, and Dawn of the Dead all have characters who spend major time in malls (though one just happens to be filled with zombies). The media reflected this, as many films - especially ones from the 1980s and 1990s - heavily feature shopping malls as important locations. Add in the social gathering aspect, and it's easy to see how the mall became as iconic as it did. The wide variety of goods in one place was like a Sears catalog come to life. Malls became cultural symbols of the time, as well as marketplaces. They purchased glistening new homes and went shopping to fill their spacious rooms and closets. This was when the wealthy (and usually white) people migrated away from urban zones and into the suburbs. Flood & decayįrom a floating warship cemetery in France, a forgotten love hotel in Japan to a flooded theme park in New Orleans, Henk searches for the beauty of their desolation and pinpoints the richness of their decay.Malls enjoyed a booming heyday in the 1970s and 1980s - even as the economy was tanking. This pocket size book shows his most iconic photos of the past 25 years, including some unpublished material and anecdotes. Henk started exploring in the early 1990s, built the website abandoned places and found out that more people shared his enthusiasm. In 2007 his first book got published. The book I bought is already his 5th. When I saw this book I recognized the fascination. Dutch Boeing 787 pilot Henk van Rensbergen flies around the globe and in his free time goes out to explore the abandoned places of our world.ĭuring my own travels, I sometimes discovered an abandoned house or even a complete street….I took many pictures, wanting to capture the beautiful decay of these places, wondering what happened, who lived here. I came across this little book a while ago and was immediately fascinated by it. ![]() ![]() ![]() The amount of energy that the HMoG outputs is not dependent on size, and the beam is more concentrated the smaller it gets.

The concentration ratio of MADNESS to DETERMINATION is what determines the subject's mental health, and can also factor into other byproducts that come with having MADNESS, like Dread Aura and MADNESS-infused attacks. It only appears in subjects with DETERMINATION whom are affected by past trauma or have mentally debilitating conditions such as schizophrenia and psychopathy.

"PAPYRUS", his ghostly and corrupted brother, bound by sheer DETERMINATION to Sans's SOUL and festers on his MADNESS. If Sans were to ever lose her, god knows what would happen. She helped him to overcome his fear of the First Human and take them on once and for all. Rose, his one and only friend, the mediator of his MADNESS and the only cling to reality Sans really has left. Below is a list of all of them and what they do to impact his life. Of course, Sans has his friends and his family. This makes him a very dangerous foe to meet. Sans has the thought that everyone hates him, and that his only purpose is to exterminate the Human race from the Multiverse. The only person that manages to calm him down during an insane breakdown is Rose, but she cannot always be there. Sans's personality is very erratic and he could snap at any moment, while still maintaining the intelligence Undertale Sans had. His eyes are red from insanity, and his glowing eye has been drastically changed from the amount of EXP he has been achieving. He has a barely noticeable scar on his forehead that he achieved from his first battle with the First Human. Sans looks much like Undertale Sans, with the key differences being the green hoodie, the brown shorts, the black shirt and the massive scar across his torso, his shorts also have no stripes. 2.1.1 Reference (credit to GeneralAFR396).1.4 Reference (STATS ARE SLIGHTLY OUTDATED) (credit to GeneralAFR396). ![]() ![]() ![]() Lighting, auxiliary with reading and underhood lights.Visors, driver and front passenger, padded with cloth trim and dual vanity mirrors, illuminated on passenger-side.Compass, 8-point digital located in the Driver Information Center.Tire, spare LT245/75R16 all-season, blackwall.(4354 kg) (Reference the Engine/Axle page for availability.) ![]() ![]() Transmission oil cooler, external (Not available with (LWN) 2.8L Duramax Turbo-Diesel engine.).Tow/haul mode selector, instrument panel-mounted.Wipers, front intermittent wet-arm with pulse washers.Warning tones, headlamp on and key-in-ignition.Tires, rear LT245/75R16E all-season, blackwall.Tires, front LT245/75R16E all-season, blackwall.Theft-deterrent system, vehicle, PASS-Key III.Suspension, rear hypoid drive axle with multi-leaf springs.Suspension, front independent with coil springs and stabilizer bar.Steering wheel steel sleeve column with theft-deterrent locking feature, Black.StabiliTrak, traction assistance and vehicle stability enhancement system.Rear axle, 3.42 ratio (Reference the Engine/Axle page for availability.).Lighting, interior with 2 dome lights defeat switch and door handle-activated switches.Instrumentation, analog with speedometer, odometer with trip odometer, fuel level, voltmeter, engine temperature and oil pressure.Glass, swing-out rear cargo door windows.Glass, Solar-Ray deep-tinted (all windows except light-tinted glass on windshield and driver- and front passenger-side glass).Glass, full-body window package (Includes (A18) swing-out rear cargo door window glass and (A19) swing-out side door window glass.).3-layer special glass is designed to help reduce the risk of ejection during a crash Glass, enhanced-technology, rearmost side windows.Fuel tank capacity, mid-frame and approximately 31 gallons (117.3L).Floor covering, full-length Black rubberized-vinyl.Exhaust, aluminized stainless-steel muffler and tailpipe.Door, swing-out passenger-side, 60/40 split.Cup holders, 3 on the engine console cover.Console, engine cover with open storage bin.Child seat anchors all three passenger rear seats have four anchors and two tethers.Bumpers, front and rear painted Black with step-pad (Deleted when (V37) front and rear chrome bumpers is ordered.).Brake/transmission shift interlock for automatic transmissions.Battery, 600 cold-cranking amps, maintenance-free with rundown protection and retained accessory power.Assist handles, driver and right-front passenger.See the Owner's Manual for more information.)
