The delinquency was then sent on May 16th with a disconnect date of June 7th.We contacted **************** on June 2nd to notify him of the delinquency and waited a few extra days to issue the disconnect on June 20th, in hopes that payment would be made to help avoid being disconnected. **************** was disconnected for the April 23 bill that was due May 13. There was absolutely no effort to keep me as a customer or to resolve this in an amicable manner.

Had a good faith effort been made to contact me the week of disconnect I could have paid and avoided all of this.Furthermore, upon calling and paying in full everything that I owed, the representative confirmed that there were in fact 2 notices delivered with 2 different disconnect dates as if that is totally normal and no harm done.

"The Company’s proposed new bill format is the type of market innovation the Commission contemplated when it initiated natural gas competition in Georgia," Coweta-Fayette EMC Natural Gas argued.Ĭoweta-Fayette EMC Natural Gas said that the service quality standards did not contemplate the introduction of a new bill by a marketer and attendant increase in call volume.

The vast majority will likely be complimentary, yet many consumers will ask our CSRs to spend time with them going over the new bill. "The Company is anticipating during the May 2011 to June 2011 Service Quality Measure reporting periods a significant increase in consumer calls with specific reference to the new bills.

![]() ![]() Sometimes characters don't have their weapons and have to attack with whatever is at hand. The Alchemist's Fire (flask) description says (emphasis added): You're using the Attack action with an improvised weapon Therefore the rules for activating a magical item or other special rules do not apply. (the printed text says "Use an Item", this has been errataed). ![]() If an item requires an action to activate, that action isn't a function of the Use an Object action It also is on the equipment list in the PHB, which nearly exclusively contains mundane items (The only magical item listed there is potion of healing, and it explicitly says in the description it is magical and is the only item in italics).Īlchemist's fire also has no instructions that its use should not use the Use an Object action, in the way magical items have on page 141 of the DMG: If it were magical it would be listed as a magical item in the DMG, which it is not. Activating a magical item actionĪlchemist's fire is not a magical item, it is a mundane item. The Attack action is a special version of attacking, a "full" attack if you so want, that allows you to use special features like the fighter's Extra Attack for additional attack rolls. But not every attack requires an Attack action. This may be a bit confusing, because you after all are making an attack, even a weapon attack. Therefore, this is not the Attack action. If this were an Attack action, then the term "Attack action" would be used. Attack ActionĪlchemist's fire's rules text instructs you to make an attack sayingĪs an action, you can throw this flask (.) Make a ranged attack against a creature or object (.) As the rules text for Alchemist's fire requires your action for its use, you take the Use an Object action to throw it. Its use, you take the Use an Object action.Īlchemist's fire is an object (namely, the flask that you throw containing the liquid). The Use an Object action on page 192 of the PHB states To go over your three options: Use an Object action It is the Use an Object Action, not the Attack Action or any other \$^1\$ Check Thomas' and Groody's excellent answers for a deeper explanation. When a creature within 5 feet of you makes an attack against a target other than you (and that target doesn't have this feat), you can use your reaction to make a melee weapon attack against the attacking creature. Since you are making an attack, beware that using this object may trigger some abilities and/or feats of surrounding creatures (allies or enemies).įor example, if an enemy with the Sentinel feat is close to you (5 ft.) when you are using the Alchemist's Fire, they may use their reaction to attack you, provided that the other requirements are met: Make a ranged attack against a creature or object, treating the alchemist's fire as an improvised weapon. Pay attention to the description: it says (emphasis mine): If it required the Attack Action for using it, it would have stated so \$^1\$. The Alchemist's Fire is an object: in order to use it you must use the Use an Object action. You are using the Use an Object Action, but beware that you are still making an attack. Which one of these is it? I've seen conflicting answers to this and I'm curious how it would work by both Rules as Written and Rules as Intended. ![]() It's generally regarded that a healer's kit works with the Use An Object action, but a healer's kit doesn't ask you to make an attack. On the other hand, Rogue (Thief) can take Use An Object as a bonus action. Many class abilities only apply if you take the Attack action, most notably the Extra Attack class feature. It's its own action, similar to activating a magic item. The action mentioned is the Use An Object action, and part of using the object instructs you to throw it and make an attack roll.The action mentioned is the Attack action, and you throw the flask as an improvised weapon when you make the attack.I can think of three possibilities here and I'm not entirely sure which one is how it works: Flasks of Oil and Holy Water also contain similar bits of text. A creature can end this damage by using its action to make a DC 10 Dexterity check to extinguish the flames.Įmphasis is mine. On a hit, the target takes 1d4 fire damage at the start of each of its turns. As an action, you can throw this flask up to 20 feet, shattering it on impact.

Sequence Diagram NotationsĪ sequence diagram is structured in such a way that it represents a timeline that begins at the top and descends gradually to mark the sequence of interactions. They can be used to model both simple and complex interactions between objects, making them a useful tool for software architects, designers, and developers. Sequence diagrams are commonly used in software development to illustrate the behavior of a system or to help developers design and understand complex systems. In simpler words, a sequence diagram shows how different parts of a system work in a ‘sequence’ to get something done. They illustrate how the different parts of a system interact with each other to carry out a function, and the order in which the interactions occur when a particular use case is executed. Sequence diagrams, commonly used by developers, model the interactions between objects in a single use case. Sequence Diagram Templates and Examples.In this sequence diagram tutorial you will learn about Among the three, sequence diagrams are preferred by both developers and readers alike for their simplicity.

One can think of it as a crossover of two designs from 2017, which are in turn inspired by vintage Tudor watches – the time and date Tudor Black Bay S&G (Steel & Gold), where the nomenclature comes from, and the Tudor Black Bay Chrono. Launched at Baselworld 2019, the Tudor Black Bay Chrono S&G is a 41mm diver chronograph. Tudor Black Bay S&G, Tudor Black Bay Chrono and Tudor Black Bay Chrono S&G Here’s what you need to know about the Tudor Black Bay Chrono S&G. Merging their dive watch and chronograph designs, and in a nostalgic two-tone finish at that, the Chrono S&G injects elegance into the average tool watch. In 2019, they outdid themselves again with the Tudor Black Bay Chrono S&G. There’s the Tudor Black Bay, greatly inspired by the brand’s vintage Submariners, and the Tudor Heritage Chronograph, inspired by their vintage Monte Carlo watches. But we are excited about the future of the pre-owned market.After years of seeking a defined audience for its watches, Tudor hit its renaissance in the 2010s, with a string of launches that hark to the brand’s most historic pieces. There is always better marketing and better branding that we could do. We are all stretched thin and maybe beyond our areas of expertise in running the company. “We have grown so quickly in six-and-a-half years, that we need more people and we need to bring in more leadership in the organization. I don’t want to put a lot of labor into the watch, this is how we can save time and money and we can establish our name for the quality of watches we sell.”Īccording to Eugene Tutunikov, who took over as CEO in 2016, after working as a trader on Wall Street, with business growing, the challenge he has now is keeping up. Our strength is in pre-owned watches with light wear that we can service and turn into a beauty. “We never take anything where the serial numbers are removed and try not to buy gray market. “We won’t take any with aftermarket changes or that are over polished, or excessively worn,” says Rokhlin. From our computer program, to our sales, our own photography, our watchmaking, polishing and shipping,” says Tutunikov.Īs to the watches, Rokhlin does all the buying himself, typically buying 100 to 200 watches at a time to get better pricing. And that is one reason we are so competitive on pricing. “We don’t have multiple locations we are not paying for the overhead of those locations and we have one building and ship all over the world from Singapore to Switzerland from here. To the contrary, we use the opportunity to find great people to add to the team, as well as acquire inventory at better values with higher expected margins.”Įugene Tutunikov at his condo in Buckhead, Atlanta wearing his Audemars Piguet Royal Oak watch.

But, collectors are bound to happen on almost any luxury brand they are looking for since, at any given time, the Buckhead, GA, retailer has approximately 3,000 watches in stock (and listed on the website).

Kokonas adds that he hasn’t been notified of any workers who can’t take the vaccine due to a pre-existing condition. He’s worried about “ambiguous legal direction from local and federal governments.” With some exceptions - including workers with a pre-existing medical condition or some religious grounds (say, if a church leader objects to a vaccine and a worker is following their direction) - employers can mandate vaccinations. He tweets that he’s reluctant to follow make vaccines mandatory. “I’m sure that we will continue to iterate as restaurants begin to fully reopen, hopefully.” Kokonas tells Eater Chicago that the company considered “many avenues” before establishing their policy: “The CDC and federal government have encouraged businesses to be proactive in setting their own guidelines and practices and this one way of doing that,” he writes. Fully vaccinated workers can elect to wear lapel pins to show customers proof of inoculation. 1 /g4tIU7RO6Y- nick kokonas May 22, 2021įor restaurants within the Alinea Group, home of Chicago’s top fine dining restaurant (according to Michelin), co-owner Nick Kokonas says fully vaccinated workers no longer have to wear masks. Those employees will not be required to wear masks per CDC guidelines, and guests can identify them via the pin. While not requiring vaccinations, The Alinea Group will provide vaccination lapel pins to any employees who voluntarily choose to show proof of vax. This is in step with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s latest guidance. They’re using an honor system to determine who’s vaccinated and who’s not. A hand-written sign on the door spells the policy out. Others, such as Ella’s BBQ - a counter-service restaurant in Lincoln Park - have made masks optional for fully vaccinated customers and workers. The decision to keep dining rooms closed for some restaurants can also be linked to labor concerns with owners struggling to hire workers. Beyond requiring restaurants and bars to post signage that explains if masks are mandatory for customers, city and state officials haven’t provided direction when it comes to vaccine verification.įor some restaurants - including Andies Restaurant, a full-service Middle Eastern spot in Andersonville - nothing has changed as owners continue to keep the dining room closed and rely on outdoor dining with masks required for those picking up food or entering to use the rest rooms. While flexibility has advantages, it also brings anxieties. As Chicago restaurants enter a new era where owners can determine if masks are optional for fully vaccinated customers and staff, new policies are emerging. ![]() |
