![]() Grab a signature Ciabatta Club Sandwich from the Hungry Pelican Deliin downtown Manteo and take it to the boardwalk or waterfront park for a lunch with a view. Delis and barbecue joints are go-to spots for a portable meal that captures the area’s culinary character. Ordering a meal to-go and enjoying it in one of these locations is the move for your typical picnic on the Outer Banks. It’s hard to beat a picnic when the weather is nice, and you’ll find no shortage of spots on the Outer Banks: the beach, nature preserves, Jockey’s Ridge, the ferry to Ocracoke. With locations in Corolla, Duck, Kitty Hawk, Kill Devil Hills, Nags Head and Avon, you’ll never have to travel too far. The real test is resisting that box’s tempting warmth and aroma as you take it home. Their distinct combos, like cookies n’ cream and blueberry-lemon, and the option to create your own flavor generates donuts unlike any you’ll find elsewhere. Bringing in a box or two of assorted donuts from Duck Donuts is a quintessential start to a day on the Outer Banks. On the other hand, vacation and weekends should mean starting the day leisurely. Those feeling particularly indulgent can even choose to start their day with a mini cheesecake or napoleon! Breakfast in Bed With such variety at your fingertips, this lets everyone in your crew satisfy their breakfast cravings. Tullio’s Bakery in Duck offers an enormous selection of fresh pastries, bagels and breakfast sandwiches. Thankfully, hitting the road on an empty stomach should be the least of your concerns on the Outer Banks, no matter how pressed for time you are. Breakfast for the RoadĮvery day should start with a delicious breakfast, and a busy day out is no exception. Photo: Better than take-out, ClamBake OBX will bring a meal to you! They offer traditional clam bakes and many other entree options with all the trimmings. With more and more eateries offering take-out and even delivery, you’ll be able to find take-out options and cuisine that match almost any occasion. Taking out from an Outer Banks restaurant a great option if you’re feeding a large group of people (and getting everyone restaurant-ready is just too darn chaotic), a busy day of activity made it hard to get to the kitchen, you need food to eat on the go or, let’s be honest, you simply don’t feel like cooking. Your only job is to receive your food and feast! Then there’s the convenience factor: In mere minutes, your meal (or meals!) is ready, no shopping, cooking or cleaning up required on your part. What’s not to like? You get to enjoy the flavors of your favorite cuisine in the comfort of your own home, maybe even wearing your best sweatpants and watching a movie. Its been ages since I've had a decent VA ham.Confession: I love getting take-out more than going out to eat. I'll also take all of the above for the favorite foods but southern food does hold a special place in my heart and palate. Used to stop at a restaurant under/near the Chesapeake Bay Bridge for crabcakes every summer as a child. ![]() Beer for the adults, 7up or Sprite for the kids.

It was a fun experience trying to learn the recipe from her before I went off to college - she never measured anything - all by feel and sight. Grandma made the best apple dumplings, ever.

![]() The design is absolutely packed with high-end materials, including two horizontal layers of wood sandwiched between layers of carbon fiber (both unique concepts) that make it among the most uncompromising designs out there. The Pagoda Tour’s hefty price tag might make it a quiver of one by necessity, but this is a case where we think the performance, versatility, and build quality justify the steep fee. It’s still happiest in soft snow, but the more confidence-inspiring build gives it fantastic versatility even in the 106-millimeter width (a narrower Pagoda Tour 94 C2 is also available). Now in its second generation, DPS honed in the design for 2023 with improvements to the ski’s dampness, stability, and durability. Their beautifully crafted and well-rounded Pagoda Tour 106 C2 puts together the brand’s strongest traits: The ski is decently lightweight for climbing at 6 pounds 13 ounces, has a great shape for smooth operation on the downhills, and boasts a premium construction that’s built to last. The backcountry ski market has exploded in recent years with a seemingly endless array of options, but DPS Skis remains one of the most venerable manufacturers on the market. What we don’t: Too pricey for casual backcountry skiers. What we like: Top-end craftsmanship and standout performance with few compromises. In the end, there are more capable descenders on the market, but the Zero G’s combination of low weight and confidence-inspiring performance makes it our top backcountry ski for the 2023 season.īest High-End Backcountry Ski 2. In addition, the ski’s wide 23-meter turn radius (for the 180cm length) makes it a little trickier to manage in tight spots, although this certainly plays a role in its trustworthy and planted feel. ![]() That said, it still isn’t as burly on the descent as the DPS options or Black Crows Navis below. Who is the Zero G 105 best for? Anyone from newbies to dedicated backcountry enthusiasts should find a lot to like with the construction. Further, the Blizzard’s 105-millimeter width hits the sweet spot for season-long use on all but the deepest days. With a multi-layer carbon build that’s been updated for 2023 to improve edge grip, it’s sturdy enough for variable conditions and decently high speeds, yet there’s a surprising amount of forgiveness that makes it a reliable partner in unfamiliar terrain. Tipping the scales at under 7 pounds for the pair, the ski is light and easy to maneuver on the climbs but really comes to life when you point it downhill. What we don’t: Not the best ski for serious, big-mountain objectives.īlizzard’s Zero G collection has legions of fans, and the latest model is about as well rounded as it gets. What we like: A versatile touring setup that’s efficient on the uphill and fun on the descent.

Below we break down our top backcountry skis for the 2023 season, which range from lightweight models for long tours and mountaineering to hybrid skis that can pull double duty on the skin track and at the resort. The good news is that material and construction technologies are growing rapidly with the recent boom in the sport’s popularity, and many of today’s alpine touring skis are impressively polished and a treat to drive. Unlike their lift-assisted alpine cousins, backcountry skis have two jobs: getting you uphill efficiently while retaining enough power to make the downhill worth the effort (and fun). ![]() ![]() ![]() Overall, Bitwar Data Recovery offers a simple method of restoring access to lost or deleted information.

The URL of the index page is different from the remaining pages. If we scroll down, the next 8 products are loaded. ![]() You will notice that initially 8 products are loaded. Open Developer Tools by pressing F12 in your browser, go to the Network tab and then select XHR. The next example is of a website that requires some creativity to properly handle its pagination. Unfortunately, some websites do not provide structured responses and/or indications when there are no more pages to scrape, so one has to do more work to extract meaning from what is available. The example was fairly simple as the response had a clear indication of when the last page was reached. In the previous section, we looked at JSON responses to figure out when to stop scraping. Once we can use the information that even the browser uses to handle pagination, replicating it ourselves for web scraping is quite easy. You will notice that as you scroll down, more requests are sent to quotes?page=x, where x is the page number. Handling sites with JSON responseīefore you load the site, press F12 to open Developer Tools, head over to the Network tab, and select XHR. The actual data returned by the API can be HTML or JSON. In such cases, websites use an asynchronous call to an API to get more content and show this content on the page using JavaScript. Another important thing to note here is that the URL does not change as more pages are loaded. As you scroll down, it dynamically loads more items, a limited number at a time. This site shows a limited number of quotes when the page loads. Let’s take the Quotes to Scrape website as an example. This kind of pagination does not show page numbers or the next button. # Make links for and process the following pages. "" "Handling pages without the Next button" "" Scroll down to the bottom of the page and notice the pagination: Head over to the Books to Scrape web page. In this article, we will examine these scenarios while scraping web data. Types of paginationĮven though each website has its way of using pagination, most of these pagination implementations fall into one of these four categories: The actual implementation varies with every site. This pager can contain the links or buttons to move the next page, previous page, last page, first page, or a specific page. In the case of pagination in web design, a user interface component, often known as a pager, is placed at the bottom of the page. The solution is to show limited records per page and provide access to the remaining records by using pagination. Such a page takes longer to load and consumes more memory in the browser. Even if it is a small dataset, if all the records are displayed on one page, the page size becomes huge. It is not feasible to display all the data on one page. Most of the websites contain a huge amount of data. What is pagination in web design?īefore understanding how to handle pagination in web scraping, it is important to understand what pagination is in web development. This article will cover practical examples, along with code in Python to handle pagination. While implementation of pagination can vary a lot, fundamentally, they fall into four broad categories. Tackling pagination in web scraping can be challenging when building a web scraper. ![]() ![]() ![]() However I'd also consider the possibility of adding an (inefficient) light oil->lubricant recipe if it's desirable for robots to be accessible before blue science. In my experience this isn't really a big change, since it is extremely common to commit all oil products to researching Advanced Oil Processing before any other technologies. This does still defer robots until blue science for lubricant. Historically, the first refined oil product was kerosene for fuel. No longer have the immersion stretch that the product that is most complex to obtain (petroleum gas) being now the first oil product.Removes the "problem" that basic oil processing is better in many cases than the advanced version.This is the big sticking point, so having it on its own is IMO a big benefit. Introduces cracking before Advanced Oil Processing, so the only new skill that has to be learned is working with multi-product fluid recipes, and the possibility of refineries getting backed up.Players are not forced to build inefficient petroleum gas->solid production, only to tear it down again once advanced oil processing is researched.Players are guided to using light oil to produce solid fuel.Multi-output recipes are deferred to Advanced Oil Processing, so the player can focus on learning fluid and pipe mechanics.Move gas->solid fuel and heavy->solid fuel back to Flammables.Add the Light->Petroleum gas cracking recipe to the Oil Processing tech.Change the Basic Oil Processing recipe to output only Light Oil.That post is reproduced here:Īfter some consideration, I have a slightly different proposal: ![]() Heavy oil is later used for lubricant for building electric motors. You can also use light & heavy for flamer weapon ammo. Once you do you can crack heavy into light, then light into petroleum gas. This mod presents an alternative to the oil changes proposed in FFF-304 described here on the forums.

Building codes for residential decks only require 40 psf in some areas, but check your local requirements to make sure you are aware of any additional local guidelines. ![]() Beam span maximums are based on a maximum anticipated live load as well as other factors. Fewer posts on upper-level decks are typically more desirable to the occupants and this drives the use of larger framing materials for longer spans.
