Coupled with the long and beloved history of the school, the design process morphed into an extended collaborative effort including not only the administration and faculty, but also alumni and major donors. Furthermore, the design process continued during construction, making continuity in the overall design imperative. The new campus has reinvigorated the students and faculty, with the architecture reinforcing progressive education coupled with traditional religious teachings.\nUltimately the decision was made to acquire a thirty five acre parcel and build a new facility that could adequately meet the needs of students for decades to come. This new location provides ample area for athletic facilities, while permitting a comfortable educational environment for a maximum of 1,200 students. The new site includes a football stadium, baseball and softball fields, a soccer field with track facilities, tennis courts, and several large parking areas.\nA unique, multi-function chapel is the religious center of the school. Subdivided by a movable partition, the space can function as a two hundred seat chapel and a fully functional classroom, or be opened up to a full three hundred seats allowing one class of students to attend mass at one time. Two main event venues, the gymnasium and a theater, are accessed from a large, central lobby. The theater includes 350 seats and a full height flyhouse while the gymnasium contains approximately 1,700 seats.\nStrategically located in the center of the complex are the Library and Commons, the two centers of the daily lives of the students. As the intellectual center for the students, the library houses both traditional and technologically advanced media to broaden the educational experience. The Commons, where students gather for meals and to socialize, includes a demountable stage and sound system for school dances and other social activities.\nDaylighting the interior of the school was of particular importance, not only to improve the performance of the students but also to reduce the energy consumption of artificial lighting. Clerestory windows bath all interior circulation spaces in natural light with wide roof overhangs shading the windows. The infusion of daylight continues in the classrooms, where indirect light fixtures augment the daylight thereby creating comfortable and uniform lighting levels while saving energy.\nA state of the art mechanical control system strictly regulates building systems throughout the school day and year to reduce wasted energy and to focus central plan capacities in appropriate areas. To further reduce equipment loads and energy use, all rooftop equipment was placed within the building structure to reduce heat loads on the equipment.\nSustainable materials were incorporated in the project with an additional focus on durability. Most notable was the selection of linoleum for all high traffic areas including the student corridors and Main Lobby for ease of maintenance and durability. Another material extensively used in the campus is synthetic turf which significantly reduces water consumption.\nMaterial in ASL Library: Form Core Boards, Project Description Form, Exteriors Photos, Location Map, Site Plan, Floor Plan, and Interior Photos\nThese images are low-resolution reproductions of the images provided for the AIA Nevada Design Awards.

Centered in that room on the dirt floor was a small glass-melting furnace, roaring brilliantly orange. It was incredibly hot. It hurt to look directly into the flame but that’s what I did, fascinated by the power and majesty of glass. This was the domain of two local glassblowers, and their world of manipulating glass, one of the oldest and most basic craft materials.\nAnd now, thirty-two years later, I am also manipulating glass to manifest my creative vision. With only a few basic elements, silica sand, soda ash, and limestone, I use intense heat to melt a clear base glass, which I then weave into a tapestry of art and objects from the simplest vase to the most complex sculpture.\nMuch of my work is an exploration of possibilities using intricate traditional Italian cane, in the Murano tradition. During a visit to my studio you might see my team at work producing these remarkable glass rods. Using a wide array of ancient techniques I blend clear base glass with colored glass from Germany and New Zealand, drawing and twisting large masses of glass into rods up to 50 feet long and sometimes no thicker than a familiar yellow pencil.\nMaking my own cane allows me the latitude to carry a creative concept from the very first hint of an idea to its full fruition. This cane, when broken into shorter lengths, informs the final design of much of my glasswork, both functional wares and sculpture.\nI invite you to visit my glass studio in Central Vermont. I blow glass seasonally from May through October and then November through February. My studio has become a destination for people traveling the northeast. People tell me they learn a lot while visiting my studio. Describing the process as it unfolds brings the outsider closer to the actual experience of glass working. I love demonstrating glassblowing in the presence of visitors. Come and visit!", "domain": "design"}

Having experience of gingerbread houses collapsing I thought a lantern we used to make in my childhood would be safer for it doesn’t have the weight of the roof to withstand.\nI am quite pleased that I got a finished lantern and it’s still in one piece as I’m writing this so I want to share how I made this if you want to make one yourself. Even if you don’t make this for Christmas day, you can make one during the winter holidays if you find more time on your hands. Decorating gingerbread is so much fun!\nMaking the gingerbread dough\nI used the easy Nordic-style gluten-free gingerbread dough I posted a little while back to make the lantern. The syrup gingerbread is quite sturdy when you bake it for longer so I knew I’d have a good chance to succeed. When making the dough to build something from you need the dough to be quite firm so that it doesn’t spread much when baking. The amount of flour you use depends a lot on the gf flour mix you are using but I’d add 11-12dl of flour with 2tbsp of psyllium husk powder mixed in to start with.\nAfter the dough has rested the minimum 3 hours in the fridge, see if you can roll the dough without it sticking much and if you can easily cut shapes from it and lift them to a tray. If the dough feels soft and unmanageable, knead a few tbsp of flour in at a time to see when the dough firms up so that it’s easy to handle. Leave a slight softness, for you add more flour when rolling the dough out, and too much flour starts to make the dough crack when rolling and baking.\nI made the lantern a very basic shape, since I wasn’t really sure how the gf dough would bake and how sturdy it would really be. I drew a shape on baking parchment where there’s a semicircle on a 10cm X 10cm square. I used a large glass tankard to help me draw the semicircle. I found this size of a lantern small enough to hold together on my own and it was large enough to safely hold a tea light without it getting too close to the edges, but if you use battery tea lights instead of real ones, they are safer and you can make smaller lanterns that are even easier to hold together when assembling.\nDo bare in mind that if you use cookie cutters to make the windows on the lantern that there’s at least a 15-20mm edge left to the sides, then the biscuit should stay sturdy enough to handle and won’t break so easily during the build.\nRolling, cutting and baking\nWhen rolling your dough, use a generous dusting of gf flour on your worktop and on top of the dough. If you have a large spatula, it will help moving the base to a baking tray.\nFirst make your base plate. The lantern is 10cm x 10 cm so check that it fits on your base and that you have a dish or tray where the base plate fits. If you end up having a base that doesn’t fit on a tray or a plate, of course you can cut out a piece from a cardboard box and cover that in tin foil to make a display tray for your creation.\nRoll the base around 8-10mm thick, you want it to be quite sturdy. Roll the dough as evenly as possible to help an uniform bake and give a nice flat surface for your piece. If you want, you can cut the base out or leave unfinished more rustic edges. Using a spatula, lift to a baking tray lined with non-stick parchment paper.\nWhen baking the base use 200C/185C (fan assisted oven). The baking time depends a lot on the size and thickness of the base, mine took 25minutes. I started from 15min and added 5min, then 2-3min at a time until I got a no ice dark bake that felt rather solid but didn’t burn from the edges. The gingerbread solidifies as it cools, so don’t wait it to feel totally hard, dark brown colour without catching the edges is what you want.\nRoll out more dough to cut out the pieces for the lantern. Ideally you want to roll out enough dough to cut all the pieces from the same sheet so that they are of uniform thickness and quality. If you can’t get all the pieces from the one sheet, just roll out more and preferably measure that you have the same 5mm thickness in all the pieces.\nPlace the pattern on the rolled dough and cut pieces out with a sharp knife. Preferably prepare spares in case something brakes or burns… I made everything double just in case and then I could choose the best pieces.\nWhen you have cut the pieces, move them to a baking tray lined with non-stick baking paper using a spatula. Cut out the windows when on the tray, I found this easier than to move a piece with a hole in. You can use cookie cutters or cut out the shape you want. Just make sure to leave an edge of 1.5-2.0cm so that the pieces are sturdy enough to assemble.\nAny excess dough left you can roll out and cut out gingerbread shapes and bake a couple of trays of gingerbread so nothing is wasted.\nWhen baking the lantern pieces again go for a nice rather dark brown bake so that the gingerbread is quite hard when it cools down so that you can build with it. Mine took around 12min but keep checking every few minutes.\nWhen the pieces are done, let them cool down properly until decorating the pieces or assembling.\nDecorating and assembly\nI like to decorate the sides of the lantern first before assembling because I feel it’s easier to decorate pieces that lay flat. You do need to wait until the icing has fully set before assembly and be mindful that you don’t damage the decorations when assembling\nI like to use royal icing for decorating for it sets quicker than icing made with icing sugar and water. You also tend to get better control of the thickness of the icing. Royal icing is egg whites and icing sugar whisked together. I used one egg white which I whisked lightly with a fork and then kept adding tablespoonfuls of icing sugar until I got quite a thick icing that would be ok to pipe and wasn’t runny. If you are worried about food safety of raw egg, use pasteurised egg white which should be quite readily available in supermarkets.\nIf you want to use shop bought icing, do checked that they are ok for coeliacs so do not contain wheat, barley, rye, oats of have a ‘may contain’ statement to any of them or ‘cereals’ containing gluten’. I had a look in my local supermarket, and from their designer icings the white one was ok and all the coloured ones had wheat in. For a coeliac even a trace amount can trigger the auto-immune response and damage the lining in the small intestine undoing up to 6 months worth of healing, as that’s considered the minimum time the lining takes to heal, so it’s better to be safe than sorry.\nWith the decoration, you can go as minimal or as elaborate you like. If you want to use sprinkles and other decorations such as sweets, again make sure they are ok for coeliacs to use as that’s the tightest standard for gluten-free. Finding suitable decorations can be tricky sometimes at least in the UK, but the selection in supermarkets is improving. I found the golden stars and snow flakes from Sainsbury’s to be ok as well as the shimmering decorative sugars. From sweets Skittles and Haribo are typically ok, of course just to be safe, always check everything in case there’s been changes to ingredients or processing.\nWhen your decorations are done and the icing set, you can assemble the lantern. I used the royal icing for this. You could use melted sugar to which you dip the edges and then join together. It would be the quickest one to set and a really solid way of fastening the pieces, but I find the hot sugar a bit too tricky to work with so I prefer to work with royal icing, even if it means staying still for a longer time holding the pieces together until they’ve set.\nTo assemble, pipe icing along all the straight edges of the lantern pieces and then join them together carefully one by one holding them together with your hands. Having someone help you with this makes things a lot easier but it can also be done as a one person job. You might want to put an audio book on or have a video to watch while you hold the pieces and wait for the icing to set for this might take nearly ten minutes. Or you can take it as a meditative practice and do breathing exercises while you wait…\nWhen you are confident that the pieces are holding together, you can let go and let the icing dry out for 10-15min. After this you can tidy the lantern up and pipe icing on the corners and bottom of lantern to fill any gaps and make it more attractive. You can add again any gf decorations to get the finish you want. Making squiggles on the base with the icing and adding sweets or sprinkles is a good tactic that doesn’t require a steady hand but you can\nNow your lantern is done! Wait for the icing to dry out before moving to a display tray. You can place a battery operated tea light inside to make it more festive. If you choose to use a real tea light, place it on a hard non-flammable surface underneath as per candle manufacturers instructions, I used a soy sauce dish. Also make sure the candle doesn’t get so close to the sides that they could start to burn. Stick to fire safety guidance and never leave a lit candle unattended, also keep away from children and pets. With an edible table decoration, children and animals might need to be kept an eye on even without a candle, to be fair.\nWhen you make a lantern of your own or do a bake with my recipes, do let me know by commenting here and letting me know where I can see a picture or tag me on Instagram (@gf_lifetweaks).

However, an occasional rainy day may have the family stuck indoors.\nWhile everyone can appreciate a lazy morning and the crisp smell of a rainy day, most parents know it won’t take long before boredom sets in. These days are perfect for longer, more involved activities with endless layers that take planning, preparation and can be played for hours. Translation: let the kids take over the house for the sake of meaningful play and imagination.\nBuild a Rube Goldberg Machine\nWhen I think of a Rube Goldberg, also known as a chain reaction machine, I instantly think of the opening scene of Back to the Future. It’s essentially a carefully planned out sequence of events engineered to perform a simple task. A quick YouTube search offers countless examples, specifically those designed by kids. Some are simple, such as a row of cascading dominoes, while others can last for several minutes.\nThe beauty of these types of machines is that the activity encompases multiple science and engineering skills disguised as creative fun, utilizing levers, pulleys, energetic force, timing, gravity and physics.\nA rainy day is the ideal time to launch this idea. Spark your child’s interest with a few videos and let them take it from there. Encourage the addition of more levels to their machine or even try to make it go through more than one room of the house. This activity is perfect for all ages, teamwork, ingenuity and trial and error. Many small adjustments are usually needed to make it all work just right.\nYou could even play the supporting role of videographer.\nCreating and Running a Town\nThe depth of this project can go as far as you’re willing to help with or encourage. The idea is for the kids to turn various rooms of the house into different stores.\nThe kitchen can be a restaurant – complete with a menu, hostess stand, cash register and the prep and service of real food items – thought up, prepared by and served by the kids. A neatly set up table for guests makes the restaurant complete.\nOne bedroom can be a gift shop. The child in charge of that “store” can display several unique items for sale, marked with a price and offer customers shopping baskets or bags for their purchases. When the customer has picked out their items, the “cashier”can total the cost and learn to calculate sales tax. They can practice counting back change and even make their own credit card machine to use. Perhaps even offer to gift wrap the customer’s purchases.\nTurn the living room into a library. The children could organize a selection of books alphabetically by author – ready for check out. Visitors to the library can select their books and use their library card (created by the librarian). After checking out their books, library patrons receive a sticky note with a due date on them. Maybe the librarian could even suggest certain books, based on their interests, or offer “story hour” at certain times, where they dress up as a certain character and do a read aloud.\nAdditional rooms could become a clothing store, sports store, movie theater, post office, bank or whatever the kids can think up. Each one complete with everything to make the play seem as realistic as possible.\nWho doesn’t love a good carnival? When suggesting this idea to your children, be prepared for a squealing response.\nThis is the perfect opportunity to let your child’s imagination run wild. They can take inspiration from standard carnival games, such as throwing a ping pong ball into cups of water or invent their own. Maybe indoor bowling, knocking down stacked blocks with a foam ball, paper airplane building, bobbing for apples, pin the tail on the donkey or even face painting.\nThey can make tickets, decide how much each game will cost and make signs accordingly. They can set up their stations, decorate and even find prizes to give away. Top it off with a popcorn and lemonade station, add some cheery music and you’ll have a fun event right in your own home.\nAny of these ideas can turn a rainy day into lasting memories. It will be time well spent, imagination will come to life and learning opportunities are woven throughout.\nJena Hengstler is an elementary teacher. She always knew she wanted to work in education and has had a 15 year career charged with just as much learning as teaching. Her teaching journey has been filled with successes, trials, love, heartbreak, celebration and humility – all for the love of children. Jena calls the beautiful state of Wyoming her home.

My focus on storytelling leads me to be the creative director on many projects and continues to grow my abilities well beyond the lens to include conceptualization and execution of immersive multi-channel campaigns.\nUSPS wanted customers to use the newly redesigned version of their premiere online shipping tool, Click-N-Ship®. The ad agency team and I collaborated on a creative concept that focused on the simplicity of the shipping tool. The result was \"Flip Steps\".\nI wanted to create a seamless visual transition entirely in-camera, so we built a huge flipping table with set dressing attached to each of the four sides. It was a challenging dance of coordination that relied heavily on my directing and producing skills. In the end, simplicity was achieved through well-planned complexity.\nFlip Steps: Photo Gallery\nCreating immersive experiences inspires visitors' thoughts and leads them to make connections that they never knew existed. \"Systems At Work\" engages visitors in an epic presentation of a subject that, at first, might seem mundane to many. The goal was to create a fun, exciting, and stylized adventure through the tech-savvy process of getting mail where it needs to go.\nI developed the creative concept then produced and directed the project. The centerpiece of the exhibit is the resulting film presentation projected on a massive 270º cylindrical screen.\nThe USPS sales team needed engaging materials to sell their services to a variety of industries. I developed three short films that are told from the perspective of these industries and suggest how mail can work for them within a modern context.\nThese short films are presented at USPS trade show booths on massive screens. We also developed an accompanying tablet app that the sales team uses to engage potential customers one-on-one after the main presentation. Example mail pieces were also created as collateral materials for customers to take back to decision-makers at their respective businesses.\nI managed all creative aspects of the film production, app development, and print design. It is a unique, cohesive package that continues to help USPS drive sales.\nIt all started with dogs chasing (and biting) mail carriers. The shocking reality was that thousands of carriers are injured by this kind of incident every year. At the same time, there were plenty of other safety related incidents that needed attention as well. USPS asked me to design a campaign surrounding keeping their employees and the public safe. After reviewing mountains of actual incident reports, I devised a simple, clear, and shocking creative approach to presenting the danger in certain situations and tips to prevent potential incidents.\nThis was the first time I got to work with dogs and a stunt team. We hired dogs that worked on shows like \"House of Cards\" and many others. Our stunt team was one of the best on the east coast. I learned so much on this production. The biggest reward was knowing that the result of my work would help prevent people getting hurt.\nMotion graphics effectively illustrate intangible ideas, visualize data, and make connections for viewers. My approach to motion design stems from my perspective as a filmmaker. I frequently use sweeping 3D camera movements and kinetic animation of graphic elements.I like to make use of practically filmed and scanned elements to add realism, texture, and depth to my designs.", "domain": "design"}

A simple example is the Bootstrap 3 menu with specific dropdown elements. In this tutorial we will learn how to build your own WordPress custom menu with a Walker_Nav_Menu class.\nWhy Would You want a Custom Menu?\nIf you are a theme builder or you are even creating a custom solution, you would need a WordPress custom menu in several situations. Here are some of them:\n- Show different menu items to visitors and logged-in users\n- Add other elements requested in the navigation by frameworks (Bootstrap, Foundation, …)\n- Include different information based on menu types (categories, pages, posts, tag, BuddyPress page, …)\nThese are only some of possible scenarios you could create your own WordPress custom menu walker.\nOur WordPress Custom Menu\nIn this tutorial we will create a simple custom menu. Our menu will include the description of links and we will not create a link (\na element) if there is no link to it. We will then create a\nWe will do that using the theme Twenty Sixteen for styling purposes so that you can also try the code and the styling much easier. That is, if you are using the latest WordPress version.\nWe could use the\nWalker class that is being used for many items inside WordPress, but we would need to set some other parameters. By extending\nWalker_Nav_Menu all the default parameters are set from the beginning.\nBase of our Custom Walker\nThis is just to start our walker. You can add this inside the\nfunctions.php file in the folder\nWe are adding this before changing the theme’s header so that we do not get an error.\nChanging the Twenty Sixteen Menu\nTo change the menu and add our own custom walker, open <code>header.php</code> and change this small part:\nThat’s it! We have added our walker and we can now start creating our own Custom WordPress Menu.\nWordPress Custom Menu Item\nThe item is displayed by the static method\nstart_el. This method accepts few parameters, some of them are self-explanatory, but two of them are hard to work with if we don’t know what they contain.\nThe two of them are\n$output is a variable passed by reference. This means that it does not have to be returned. Everything that happens in this method to that variable will be available in the next iteration also.\n$item is an object that represents the an item of the menu. This is an example of a custom link:\nPlease take some time to read those values and understand them. Have some fun, change the menu items information and see what will change in there. For example, the\ntitle is the value that you will type in the Navigation label input.\nTo make the Description label visible, you must scroll to the top and click on the Screen options. Once there, you need to check the Description to make it visible.\n$args contains every information we pass into the function\nwp_nav_menu. This can be used to enter some information from the arguments into our WordPress custom menu.\nSome of the information inside the\n$item object will be used in our custom menu. Let’s prepare them:\nThe variables that we will use here are actually\nCreating the Menu Item\nWe are now prepared to create our menu item. Use this code for that:\nWe will first create our\nli element with all the classes we have received from WordPress. This is done by using the PHP function\nAfter that, we are checking if there is a permalink. If the permalink only contains # then we are not considering it a link. For that case we will create a\nspan element instead of\nOnce that is done, our output will get also the\ntitle of our item.\nWe are then checking if there is a description. If the variable\n$description is not empty and we are on the first level (\n$depth==0), we will add the description to the output.\nAt the end of our item, we are again having the same check for the permalink, but not for opening our element. We are doing it for closing the element.\nAdding the Styles\nSince we are working with the Twenty Sixteen theme, I have also created some styles for our non-link elements and for the description. Add this:\nWith that styles I have now this:\nWant to learn more advanced topics? Check out my course by clicking on the image below.\nCreating WordPress custom menu can be a daunting task if you are not aware of all the information that is available to you. There are menu walkers out there, probably for any framework you work with. The most important part I wanted for you to take from this tutorial is that you can control every part of each menu item.\nThis really can come in handy when working on some custom solutions or very specific themes.\nHave you worked with some custom menus? Did you build your own menu walker or used one? Please do share that in the comments below:)\nBecome a Sponsor\nThank you for the tutorial. Is there a way to customize only those menus in a sidebar of a specific ID? I want to create a walker that only applies to Navigation Menu widgets in a specific sidebar.\nHi Red, you can use the filter ‘widget_nav_menu_args’ inside that widget to check on the sidebar probably. This filter can be found inside\nwp-includes/widgets/class-wp-nav-menu-widget.php. The variable\n$argsshould contain every information about the sidebar. After that, you can easily change the\n$nav_menu_argsparam to add your own Navigation Walker 🙂\nThank you for your time. $args does not store which sidebar a widget is stored in. $params lists sidebars, but I haven’t been smart enough to find a way to use them together. I need something like, “if this widget is in that sidebar, then use this walker, else use the default”\nHere is information about $args where someone is trying to do something similar. I tried using a walker except on certain menu_id, but menu_id always comes up blank when following the directions here.\nIt would be easier to change the default walker and then just use custom walkers in the registered areas. If I change the default using the code below, then my registered areas menus ignore their custom walkers and use the default one instead.\nSo i’ve been trying to create custom menu markup for my theme but the more i try the more i get frustrated! Pls anybody willing to help me?\nThis is the markup i want printed out;\nAnyway way i can do that? Thanks in advance!\nI think I don’t understand the question. Can you use the menu Label field?\nthanks for the info\nhow would this apply to a child theme structure?\nThe same way. If you’re doing a custom menu in your child theme, you could pass the walker directly into that function.\nThanks for this solution. But When I made custom navwalker as you did, I faced a problem that only one item is shown in menu. Can you help me for this?\nThanks for the tutorial. I have your tutorial up and running on my development server and all looks good. But would there be any chance the author could extend this tutorial here by showing how we could modify a nested list that is within an li element? for example, from within the walker go ahead and add an custom class to the sub list, or wrap that sub list in a div element.\nIt worked for me, thank you! (I’m developing a theme with Bulma.io)\nThanks for your very detailed post. I looked for something like that for months. I’ll check your blog to find more sweets like that one 🙂\nVery useful tutorial. I’ve made a menu with images after reading this article.\nThank you for this!!!!!", "domain": "design"}

The project involves the elimination of existing Watertown 25R Substation located near 64 Echo Lake Rd. This substation is comprised of 50+ year old equipment and operates at 4.8kV Delta. Due to the age of the infrastructure and the obsolescence of 4.8kV Delta systems, this substation i9s being retired. In order to retire this substation the creation of a new circuit out of Shaw’s Hill 24H Substation is required. The proposed new circuit will need to be installed through 2,500 ft. of existing manhole duct infrastructure along Sunnyside to Edgewood Rd., at which point it will exit the underground and rise overhead. In addition, this design also calls for the installation of one new manhole duct being installed at the intersection of Sunnyside Ave. and Edgewood Rd.\nUpon completion, this project will greatly improve service reliability for customers in the area. The anticipated work will eliminate 50+ year old equipment, update outdated system voltages to company standard, and create new automatic circuit ties that will assist in providing alternate source for over 6,029 customers during potential contingencies.\nThe contractor completing the work is Stone Construction Co.

Let's dig right into them.\nI am aiming to give you a high-level refresher on these two aspects of IAC with the help of quoted experts.\nYou may get a new perspective for explaining to new engineers and leadership why you have architected your IAC files the way you have. After all, many of us still have to defend our choices well after making them. So let’s begin:\nImperative vs declarative configuration\nThe early days of IaC meant telling the computer exactly what you wanted it to do. In terms of infrastructure provisioning, the IaC provisioning tool followed imperative (also known as procedural) **instructions. In this paradigm, the engineer specifies the exact steps.\nThe system does not deviate from the instructions even if they are inefficient. For example, imperative code may execute from a command-line interface with a Bash script. It would then drive a step-by-step configuration of the infrastructure.\nIts simplicity makes workflow audits easier, but imperative code doesn’t scale well because the results will vary depending on what’s going on in the infrastructure at the time. The code is not designed to be reusable.\nIf you run an imperative script multiple times, you may begin to notice variability in the infrastructure that is provisioned. This is especially the case if an error occurs somewhere along the execution process of the script. (Sai Vennam, Developer Advocate at IBM, 2019)\nDeclarative instructions, on the other hand, give consistent results as the code is about the end result. In your code file, you define the pattern required then leave it to the tool to work out how to achieve it. The system then works continuously until it reaches that state.\nDeclarative instructions are the better preferred way for IaC provisioning, to create and change infrastructure configurations. However, they may not be adequate for more complex infrastructure needs where the path needs to be as clear as the destination.\nIn high CPU workload situations, declarative code has the advantage. According to Martin Kleppman, author of Designing Data-Intensive Applications, declarative languages are better suited for parallel execution. He wrote that recent advances in CPU performance have been due to adding more cores and not through higher clock speeds than before”.\nImperative code is very hard to parallelize across multiple cores and multiple machines, because it specifies instructions that must be performed in a particular order. Declarative languages have a better chance of getting faster in parallel execution because they specify only the pattern of the results, not the algorithm that is used to determine the results. — Martin Kleppman\nIn some situations, using tools that allow for both imperative and declarative instructions may be wise. Most of the earlier tools that were originally imperative only now work in both imperative and declarative modes.\nMutable vs immutable infrastructure\nA mutable approach to infrastructure is where you can change the state of the infrastructure to another. An immutable approach to infrastructure is when you don’t change the infrastructure to another form. Instead, you create new infrastructure and retire the old infrastructure.\nThere is a benefit to this non-changeability, which we will get to in a moment. But first, let’s go through an example, which is an abridged version of Armon Dadgar’s explanation of mutable vs immutable infrastructure.\nSay you have a server version 1 running Apache and your team decides to switch to NGINX for version 2. In a mutable environment, you’re essentially upgrading the existing infrastructure. You’d run the IaC config tool (e.g. Ansible) to the Apache server to execute the change to NGINX.\nThere is a benefit to this:\nWe already have this existing server. Maybe we have data that we've written locally and that our web server is consuming. When we update in place [with mutable configuration], we don't have to worry about moving the data around to other machines, creating a new machine, all of the infrastructures already exists. All we're gonna do is perform this upgrade. — Armon Dadgar, CTO at Hashicorp\nThe issue with this is that things in the real world can go wrong, especially during an upgrade procedure. Mutable infrastructure faces the risk of messy version control, as we’ll now explore by continuing on with the Apache → NGINX example.\nLet’s say we run this code to install NGINX: apt-get install NGINX\nbut then the APT repo isn’t responsive, or the network is lagging excessively, or a myriad of other things. The risk is that NGINX might not get installed properly or at all. So the provisioning tool has executed the version change, but it’s not what we expected.\nThis creates three inter-related issues:\nYou haven’t necessarily achieved the goal state of Version 2 having NGINX for the webserver\nIt’s difficult to test half-successful upgrades because there may be variability in performance\nUpgrades done at scale means varying degrees of change depending on the real-world issue with the network, repo etc\nIn a large scale web server change configuration, you may end up with:\nmost servers having NGINX installed and running 😄\nsome servers with no NGINX installed 😔 and\na few servers with NGINX installed but no webserver running 😕\nAn immutable approach does away with the risk of half-upgraded virtual or physical servers. You would follow this process for the Apache → NGINX example:\nKeep running Apache server while you complete steps 2 to 4\nSpool up a new virtual machine\nInstall and configure NGINX webserver on that\nTest that all parameters are performant\nRetire the Apache server\nIt may seem a lot more work than simply upgrading the existing Apache server to NGINX, but may save on the above risk of varying NGINX installs.\nCoburn Watson is head of infrastructure & SRE at Pinterest. His take on the issue might sum up the whole argument for moving away from mutable infrastructure. In the 2018 book, Seeking SRE, he wrote:\n\"I think we’ve all worked at companies where we upgrade something [mutable], and it turns out it was bad and we spend the night firefighting it because we’re trying to get the site back up because the patch didn’t work. [Now] when we go to put new code into production, we never upgrade anything, we just push a new version alongside the current code base.”\nNote that immutable infrastructure works best if the various application components run on separate servers. In particular, store data on another server. So when you run a create-retire routine like above, you don’t risk precious user data in the process.\nI hope you found this breakdown useful.", "domain": "design"}

At an early stage in his career, he adopted the concept that \"form follows function,\" which led him to design some of the most innovative designs for structures that ranged from modest homes to the Guggenheim Museum in New York City.Wright's parents were William Cary Wright and Anna Lloyd Jones Wright, who traced their ancestry to Wales. His first commissioned work was the Hillside Home School, which was built for Wright’s aunts in 1888 near Spring Green, Wisconsin.After about a year, Wright obtained a better job as a draftsman for Adler and Sullivan, a prominent Chicago architectural firm then at the forefront of architectural design. Wright would later refer to Louis Sullivan as his Lieber Meister, which means \"beloved master,” and acknowledge Sullivan alone as an influence on his work.In 1889, Wright married Catherine Lee Clark Tobin — the first of three wives — with whom he had six children. With $5,000 borrowed from Sullivan, he purchased a lot in Oak Park, in an affluent suburb west of downtown Chicago, and built his first home.Wright stayed with Adler and Sullivan until 1893, when his growing number of independent commissions convinced his employers that he was \"moonlighting\" and terminated him, based on company policy. Wright rebounded by opening his own firm, first operating from the Adler and Sullivan-designed Schiller Building, then the Steinway Building, and finally in 1898, a studio at his home in Oak Park.Forty-nine buildings were constructed from Wright's designs during his first eight years as an independent architect. During that time, he began to develop what is known as the Prairie Style of architecture, named after a house he designed for a Ladies Home Journal article in 1901. His architectural designs are often associated with the Arts and Crafts Movement.Wright did not limit himself to architecture. Regarding architectural interiors, he said that the \"reality of a building is not the container but the space within.\" Such was the impact of Wright's designs that furniture makers even today are producing items based on them.In 1909, Wright left his wife and traveled to Germany with Margaret “Mamah” Cheney, the wife of a neighbor and client. He named the house \"Taliesin,\" which means \"shining brow\" in Welsh.Wright divided his time between his Chicago office and Taliesin until August 15, 1914, when his chef became deranged, set fire to Taliesin, and murdered Cheney, two of her children, and two other people. He completed the Midway Garden commission in Chicago and launched into the rebuilding of Taliesin.Following the tragedy at Taliesin, Wright received a letter of condolence from a sculptress named Miriam Noel. Free at last after more than a decade of separation, he married mentally disturbed Noel in November 1923, but they separated in March 1924 and divorced in 1928.While still married to Noel, Wright had encountered a young Yugoslav, Olga Milanoff Hinzenberg, who was 33 years his junior, married but separated, and the mother of a young daughter Svetlana. About three years later, the couple was officially married.With the coming of the Great Depression, architectural commissions became scarce. The result was Wright's residential masterpiece, Fallingwater, the house built over a waterfall.In 1929, Wright spent time in Arizona working on projects. Wright and his fellowship were now able to alternate between Arizona and Wisconsin, depending on the season.Age had no evident effect on Wright's productivity. Following World War II, he received commissions for 270 houses, as well as the Guggenheim Museum in New York City and the Marin County Civic Center in San Raphael, California. His body was interred at Taliesin, near Unity Chapel, which is considered to be his first building.Frank Lloyd Wright redefined architecture and hastened the end of the Art Nouveau period. Form and function should be one, joined in a spiritual union.”\nPlan ahead for your visit: Hydrate! Wear sunscreen. Bring a hat and/or umbrella for shade.

This teacher, caught the eye of William Carey Wright, a preacher and musician. William soon won her affections and they married. On June 8, 1867 in Richland Center, a small town 20 miles west of Spring Green, Anna gave birth to a son named Frank Lloyd Wright.\nWright spent many summers in his teen years on the farm his uncle James worked in the valley. Wright considered the valley to be his home … much more so than the house in Madison, Wisconsin, where he spent the rest of the year. During his summers in the valley, he learned to pay particular attention to the patterns and rhythms of nature. The lessons he gleaned from nature would find their way into his later work again and again.\n1886 UNITY CHAPEL\nUnity Chapel is a shingle-style chapel designed by architect Joseph Lyman Silsbee of Chicago, IL. Wright’s uncle and Unitarian minister, Jenkin Lloyd Jones commissioned the chapel and Frank Lloyd Wright designed the interior at the age of 18. This makes Unity Chapel Wright’s earliest work. A family cemetery outside includes the grave sites of the Lloyd Jones family, including Wright’s original plot. Unity Chapel today remains operated by the Lloyd Jones family. The exterior is open to the public, and tours of the interiors are available by request.\n1897 ROMEO AND JULIET WINDMILL\nRomeo and Juliet Windmill was commissioned by Wright’s aunts to pump water for their co-educational boarding school, and Wright offered them a striking observatory tower of wood. The design features two intersecting towers, with Romeo as a triangular storm prow, supported by the octagonal Juliet. The aerodynamic structure allows storm winds to pass around the structure without causing harm. In 1992 Taliesin Preservation fully restored the windmill as its first project on the Taliesin estate, in partnership with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation.\nWright designed Tan-y-Deri as a residence for his sister, Jane Porter, and her family. The Porters worked for the Hillside Home School, just downhill. Welsh for “under the oaks,” Tan-y-Deri sits on a hill adjacent to Taliesin and next to the Romeo and Juliet Windmill. The design was based on “A Fireproof House for $5000” by Wright featured in the Ladies Home Journal article. Tan-y-Deri underwent a comprehensive interior and exterior restoration completed in 2017.\nWright’s home, studio, and garden sanctuary was a laboratory for architecture and design. In its three iterations, Taliesin embodies Wright’s ideas of organic architecture, expanded and refined from his earlier Prairie School works. From the courtyards and gardens to the Living Room, Loggia, and Birdwalk, Taliesin offers a commanding view of the valley, settled by Wright’s Welsh ancestors. Using natural local limestone and Wisconsin River sand, Taliesin stands as “shining brow” on Wright’s favorite boyhood hill.\n1911 TALIESIN I\nWright moved to this valley two years after leaving his 20-year-architect practice in Oak Park, IL. He wanted to live, work, and farm in the valley with his companion, Mamah Borthwick. He later wrote,\n“This hill on which Taliesin now stands as “brow” was one of my favorite places when I was a boy, for pasque flowers grew there in March sun while snow still streaked the hillsides.…”\nIn 1914, arson destroyed the living quarters of Taliesin – one-third of the house – and seven were murdered.\n1914 TALIESIN II\nWright immediately declared that he would rebuild the destroyed portion of Taliesin. In his autobiography, Wright later wrote: “Taliesin should live to show something more for its mortal sacrifice than a charred and terrible ruin on a lonely hillside in the beloved Valley.” In Taliesin II, he added a stone-floored room called The Loggia from which he could see the family chapel.\n1925 TALIESIN III\nIn April 1925, an electrical fire in Wright’s bedroom destroyed Taliesin’s living quarters again. Wright — by then with the future Mrs. Wright (Olgivanna) — wrote, “Taliesin lived wherever I stood! A figure crept forward from out the shadows to say this to me. And I believed what Olgivanna said.” As he wrote,\n[T]aught by the building of Taliesin I and II, I made forty sheets of pencil studies for the building of Taliesin III…. Taliesin’s radiant brow … should come forth and shine again with a serenity unknown before.\n1932 TALIESIN FELLOWSHIP\nThe Great Depression saw few commissions come Wright’s way. Never idle, however, Wright turned to writing, producing An Autobiography and The Disappearing City, both of which continue to influence generations of architects. During this time, Wright received numerous letters from individuals interested in studying with him.\nIn 1932, Frank and Olgivanna Lloyd Wright founded the Taliesin Fellowship, a community that provided architectural training with a holistic, “learn by doing” approach that stressed appreciation of all the arts, and which often allowed students to design and work on structures on the Taliesin property. The community survives today as the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture whose members, both faculty, and apprentices, are still known informally as the Taliesin Fellowship and who reside at Taliesin during the summer months.\nHillside Home School, the building Wright designed in 1902 for his aunts’ boarding school in the valley, became the Fellowship’s central campus. With the inspiration and help of a young and eager group of apprentices, Wright remodeled and expanded the school, adding a 5,000-square-foot drafting studio, converting the gymnasium into a theater and adding housing for the new apprentices.\n1952 MIDWAY BARN\nMidway Barn is located between Taliesin and Hillside School. Stepping down the hill, it served as the center of agriculture for the estate beginning in the 1940s. Midway grew as operations expanded through the decades with the spired Milking Tower is Wright’s “ode to the Guernsey teat.”\n1955 HILLSIDE STUDIO & THEATER\nThe complex of buildings at Hillside includes spaces from across Wright’s career as a designer: the “abstract forest” drafting studio (1939), the Hillside Assembly Hall (1903), the Hillside Theater (1955), and the Fellowship dining hall (1955). Hillside is home to the School of Architecture at Taliesin, and students in residence here from mid-May through mid-October may be seen at work in the studio. The Assembly Hall is an example of Wright’s strides to “destroy the box” of traditional architectural design. The Hillside Theater includes a theater curtain, that was adapted from a Wright-designed geometric abstraction of the Taliesin landscape.\n1967 THE FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT VISITOR CENTER\nWright designed the Riverview Terrace as a “gateway to Taliesin” that would house a restaurant, as well as offices and meeting space for the architects at Taliesin. Construction began under Wright’s supervision and stalled upon Wright’s death in 1959. In 1967 the Riverview Terrace opened as The Spring Green restaurant as part of an investment in developing an arts community in Spring Green along the Wisconsin River. Taliesin Preservation purchased the building in 1993 and adapted it to serve as the Frank Lloyd Wright Visitor Center.\n1990 TALIESIN PRESERVATION\nA non-profit organization founded upon the recommendation of a Blue Ribbon Commission authorized by Governor Tommy Thompson in 1988, Taliesin Preservation restores and preserves Frank Lloyd Wright’s home, Taliesin, and the additional Wright-designed buildings on the 800 acre Taliesin estate. The work includes physical preservation, repair, and restoration of furniture and materials, updating HVAC systems while returning the buildings and estate to the last decade of Wright’s life.\nPhoto Credit: The Chicago History Museum, ICHi89169, Raymond W. Trowbridge, photographer.\nAn American architect, designer, writer, and educator, Frank Lloyd Wright promoted organic architecture, which was best exemplified in his most famous work—Fallingwater. During his seventy-year career, Wright designed over 1,100 buildings (seeing over 500 of them realized), authored twenty books and numerous articles, and was a popular lecturer in the United States and in Europe until his death. Already renowned during his lifetime, Wright is now considered the “greatest American architect of all time.\"\nFrank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959)\nFrank Lincoln Wright was born in Richland Center, Wisconsin, on June 8, 1867, to William Carey Wright, an itinerant music teacher, composer, and Baptist minister, and Anna Lloyd Jones Wright, a school teacher. Following his parents’ divorce in 1885, Frank changed his middle name to Lloyd to honor his mother’s family.\nThough his ambitious and strong-minded mother decorated the walls of his nursery with pictures of European cathedrals, it was not man-made beauty that initially captivated Wright. Growing up in rural Wisconsin on a plot of land originally settled by his mother’s Welsh ancestors, Wright spent his days surrounded by—and indeed a part of—the changing natural landscape. A patchwork of open fields, lush green valleys and rock-edged streams fed by the Wisconsin River all proved influential in the formation of his later organic design philosophy.\nWright’s family lived on a farm and, as a boy, his experiences taking care of animals and harvesting a life out of the earth made an indelible impression on him that influenced him consciously and, even more importantly, unconsciously, throughout his life. During his youth, he spent many hours purposefully observing the subtle behavior of sunlight, the shifting shadows of dusk and the changing of the seasons. Enthralled, he later sought out great thinkers whose beliefs affirmed and ultimately refined his, such as Thoreau, Emerson and Whitman.\nWright’s reverence for the natural world became the cornerstone of his pioneering theories of “organic architecture” and would shape, define and enhance every project he approached for the rest of his life. Generations would hail Frank Lloyd Wright as a genius…one of the greatest architects who ever lived. But like the sunny fields where he played as a child, his life would also have its shadows.\nIt has been noted that Wright’s career ran concurrently with the birth and evolution of modern architecture. He began his career in 1887 in Chicago, first in the office of Joseph Lyman Silsbee and then at the firm of Adler & Sullivan, under the supervision of the famed architect Louis Sullivan.\nWhen it was discovered he was soliciting his own commissions, he then set up a private practice in his Oak Park home, adding a drafting studio and visitor reception room in 1895. There he perfected his signature Prairie Style, emphasizing open spaces and shallow, sloping rooflines. The Prairie Style, especially houses like that for Frederick C. Robie, was extremely influential in the Midwest especially, and is considered a milestone in the history of modern architecture.\nIn the early decades of the twentieth century, Frank Lloyd Wright’s productivity was matched in intensity by the public’s fascination with his personal life. A high-profile affair with a client, the resulting well-publicized separation from his wife, and a year-long sojourn through Europe culminated in his return to the United States in 1911 and his purchase of a plot of ancestral land in Wisconsin, where he would build his renowned retreat and studio, Taliesin.\nThe valley surrounding Taliesin was originally settled by Wright’s maternal family, the Lloyd Joneses, during the Civil War. Welsh immigrants, Wright’s maternal grandfather and uncle were Unitarian ministers, and his two aunts had founded the Hillside Home School, a co-educational boarding school. The Lloyd Jones family, their ideas, religion, and ideals, greatly influenced the young Wright, who chose the Welsh word Taliesin, meaning “shining brow” for his sanctuary positioned on the “brow” of a favored hill.\nSubsequent sensational events at Taliesin included the murder of seven people, including Wright’s mistress at the time, by arson in 1914. Coinciding with the collapse of his second marriage in the 1920s, a second devastating fire at Taliesin in 1925, and the onset of the Great Depression, Wright’s career faced a loss of commissions. What was designed as a refuge from public scrutiny soon flourished to become an experimental architectural apprenticeship program as Taliesin slowly grew to encompass the former Hillside Home School buildings when Wright formed the Taliesin Fellowship with his third wife, Olgivanna, in 1932.\nWright used the Fellowship as a way to explore and enact his ideas of organic architecture. Taliesin was riddled with misfortunes, but it was also there that the genesis of Fallingwater took shape. With its extraordinary Wisconsin landscape and romantic relationship with nature, Taliesin signaled a maturity that would fully blossom—only a few years later—among the rhododendron in rural southwestern Pennsylvania.\nIn 1934, having just returned to the United States from a long stay in Europe, Edgar Kaufmann jr. was introduced to the unique concepts of Frank Lloyd Wright quite by chance. A friend had suggested he read An Autobiography, Wright’s 1932 accounting of his life in which the 65-year-old architect opined on his upbringing, his buildings, and the somewhat radical ideas that led to his reputation as a colorful genius and innovator of the “organic” approach to modern architectural design and construction. Instantly captivated by Wright’s belief that art has a humane and noble task to serve man in harmony with his natural surroundings, the Kaufmann felt the architect’s words “flowed into my mind like the first trickle of irrigation in a desert land.” He visited Wright at Taliesin in September 1934, and by October had taken his place among the apprentices there.\nThough he had no plans to become an architect, the young Kaufmann also began to enthusiastically discuss Wright’s ideas with his parents. Following a visit to Taliesin in 1934, Edgar Kaufmann, Sr., began a casual correspondence with the architect regarding several potential civic projects in Pittsburgh. Kaufmann quickly recognized their mutual passion for new ideas, aesthetic beauty and the relationship between man and the natural world and Wright found a patron that would change the course of his life, his career and, indeed, modern architecture itself.\nFrank Lloyd Wright and Cloquet: A historic connection\nFrank Lloyd Wright, born June 1867, spent over 70 years designing nationally recognized structures that have continued to impact architecture. He spent his life traveling the world — learning, teaching and designing.\nSo, what led the celebrated architect to select Cloquet as the home for not one, but two of his designs? The answer is simpler than people might think, and it all started with two college students.\nIn the early 1950s, Cloquet resident and business owner Ray Lindholm was seeking his ideal home somewhere in the local area. Lindholm founded Lindholm Oil Company in 1939 and set his eyes on a new goal of constructing a home for himself and his wife, Emmy.\nIt was then that his college-aged daughter, Joyce Mckinney, and her husband, Daryl Mckinney, encouraged him to hire Wright for the project. They had admired Wright’s work while studying at the University of Minnesota and thought he would be a good fit.\nThe family soon traveled to Wright’s home in Spring Green, Wisconsin, and commissioned his help.\nJoyce Mckinney told the Pine Journal in a 2008 interview that Wright was willing to design the house plan immediately.\n“He was very accessible, and I don’t think terribly busy either,” she said.\nWright often took on smaller-scale projects and designed over 400 homes in the U.S. during his life.\n“Regard it just as desirable to build a chicken-house as to build a cathedral,” he once told studying architects.\nUpon its completion in 1952, the Lindholm House spread approximately 2,300 square feet in what was once a heavily wooded area of Cloquet.\nThe house dawned the name Mäntylä — Finnish for “house among the pines” — and remained in Cloquet until 2016, when it was donated by then-owners Peter and Julene Mckinney to the Usonian Preservation in Acme, Pennsylvania.\nBut, the relationship did not end with the completion of the house. While Ray Lindholm was dreaming of a home, Wright was dreaming of a service station.\nWright had been working on designs for service stations since the 1920s and believed they were a crucial piece in his utopia urban plan known as “Broadacre City.”\n“The roadside service station may be, in embryo, the future city distribution center,” Wright wrote in his biography.\nUnfortunately, none of his designs for the stations had come to fruition, and Wright was nearing the end of his career.\nSo, when he learned the Lindholm family owned an oil company, he jumped at the opportunity to see one of his station designs come to life.\n“Basically, Wright convinced my grandfather to let him do the project,” Lindholm's grandson Mike Mckinney told the Pine Journal in 2009.\nWright based the design on some of his previous plans, with some minor modifications made in light of local fire codes.\nHe wanted it to be a step up from other service stations, and equipped it with a 32-foot copper canopy and a lounge for guests to wait while their vehicles were repaired.\nIt cost around $75,000 to design and build, as compared to the usual $25,000, but Joyce Mckinney told the Duluth News Tribune that her father didn’t flinch at the price.\nIn the end, the design was unique and attention-grabbing, but not practical, according to former manager Donald Lynch.\n“It’s unfortunate that Frank Lloyd Wright didn’t know anything about service stations when he designed it,” Lynch told the Duluth News Tribune in 1982, citing a cramped sales office and inaccessible bathrooms.\nWright designed both the Lindholm house and service station without ever visiting the area. He used topographic maps to chart out his plans, and sent his apprentice Robert Pond to oversee the service station's construction.\nEven though Wright never stepped foot in Cloquet, it appears the Lindholm and Mckinney families had ongoing communication with the architect.\nIn addition to visiting his Wisconsin home, the family also traveled to Arizona to see Wright, who designed a second home for the family, but it was never constructed.\nWhile many described Wright as an egomaniac, Joyce Mckinney told the Duluth News Tribune that he was “sweet.\" The family kept a photograph of Wright taken by Daryl Mckinney, in which he is pictured holding his glasses in one hand, looking to the side.\nJoyce Mckinney told the News Tribune that Wright hated the photograph and had torn up the original, saying that it made him look old. Fortunately, she had made another copy, which the family still has today.\nThe R.W. Lindholm Station held its grand opening in 1958. Wright died five months later, having completed his final career goal.\nWhile it is no longer owned by the original family, the station has come to be known as the Frank Lloyd Wright Gas Station and was registered through the National Register of Historical Places in 1985.\nIn 2008, then-mayor Bruce Ahlgren declared Aug. 7 as Frank Lloyd Wright Day in Cloquet.\nThe Triumph of Frank Lloyd Wright\nFrank Lloyd Wright's most iconic building was also one of his last. The reinforced-concrete spiral known as the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum opened in New York City 50 years ago, on October 21, 1959 six months before, Wright died at the age of 92. He had devoted 16 years to the project, facing down opposition from a budget-conscious client, building-code sticklers and, most significantly, artists who doubted that paintings could be displayed properly on a slanting spiral ramp. \"No, it is not to subjugate the paintings to the building that I conceived this plan,\" Wright wrote to Harry Guggenheim, a Thoroughbred horse breeder and founder of Newsday who, as the benefactor's nephew, took over the project after Solomon's death. \"On the contrary, it was to make the building and the painting a beautiful symphony such as never existed in the world of Art before.\"\nFrom This Story\nVideo: Constructing the Guggenheim\nThe grandiloquent tone and unwavering self-assurance are as much Wright trademarks as the building's unbroken and open space. Time has indeed shown the Guggenheim's tilted walls and continuous ramp to be an awkward place to hang paintings, yet the years have also confirmed that in designing a building that bestowed brand-name recognition on a museum, Wright was prophetic. Four decades later, Frank Gehry's Guggenheim Bilbao—the curvaceous, titanium-clad affiliated museum in northern Spain—would launch a wave of cutting-edge architectural schemes for art institutions across the globe. But Wright was there first. A retrospective exhibition at the original Guggenheim (until August 23) reveals how often Wright pioneered trends that other architects would later embrace. Passive solar heating, open-plan offices, multi-storied hotel atriums—all are now common, but at the time Wright designed them they were revolutionary.\nWhen Solomon Guggenheim, the heir to a mining fortune, and his art adviser, Hilla Rebay, decided to construct a museum for abstract painting (which they called \"non-objective art\"), Wright was a natural choice as architect. In Rebay's words, the two were seeking \"a temple of spirit, a monument\" and Wright, through his long career, was a builder of temples and monuments. These included actual places of worship, such as Unity Temple (1905-8) for a Unitarian congregation in Oak Park, Illinois, one of the early masterpieces that proclaimed Wright's genius, and Beth Sholom Synagogue (1953-59) in Elkins Park, Pennsylvania, which, like the Guggenheim, he supervised at the end of his life. But in everything he undertook, the goal of enhancing and elevating the human experience was always on Wright's mind. In his religious buildings, he used many of the same devices—bold geometric forms, uninterrupted public spaces and oblique-angled seating—as in his secular ones. The large communal room with overhead lighting that is the centerpiece of Unity Temple was an idea he had introduced in the Larkin Company Administration Building (1902-6), a mail-order house in Buffalo, New York. And before it reappeared in Beth Sholom, what he called \"reflex-angle seating\"—in which the audience fanned out at 30-degree angles around a projecting stage—was an organizing principle in his theater plans, starting in the early 1930s. To Wright's way of thinking, any building, if properly designed, could be a temple.\nIn his unshakable optimism, messianic zeal and pragmatic resilience, Wright was quintessentially American. A central theme that pervades his architecture is a recurrent question in American culture: How do you balance the need for individual privacy with the attraction of community activity? Everyone craves periods of solitude, but in Wright's view, a human being develops fully only as a social creature. In that context, angled seating allowed audience members to concentrate on the stage and simultaneously function as part of the larger group. Similarly, a Wright house contained, along with private bedrooms and baths, an emphasis on unbroken communal spaces—a living room that flowed into a kitchen, for example—unknown in domestic residences when he began his practice in the Victorian era. As early as 1903, given the opportunity to lay out a neighborhood (in Oak Park, which was never built), Wright proposed a \"quadruple block plan\" that placed an identical brick house on each corner of a block he shielded the inhabitants from the public street with a low wall and oriented them inward toward connected gardens that encouraged exchanges with their neighbors. Good architecture, Wright wrote in a 1908 essay, should promote the democratic ideal of \"the highest possible expression of the individual as a unit not inconsistent with a harmonious whole.\"\nThat vision animates the Guggenheim Museum. In the course of descending the building's spiral ramp, a visitor can focus on works of art without losing awareness of other museumgoers above and below. To that bifocal consciousness, the Guggenheim adds a novel element: a sense of passing time. \"The strange thing about the ramp—I always feel I am in a space-time continuum, because I see where I've been and where I'm going,\" says Bruce Brooks Pfeiffer, director of the Frank Lloyd Wright Archives in Scottsdale, Arizona. As Wright approached the end of his life, that perception of continuity—recalling where he had been while advancing into the future—must have appealed to him. And, looking back, he would have seen telling examples in his personal history of the tension between the individual and the community, between private desires and social expectations.\nWright's father, William, was a restless, chronically dissatisfied Protestant minister and organist who moved the family, which included Wright's two younger sisters, from town to town until he obtained a divorce in 1885 and took off for good. Wright, who was 17 at the time, never saw his father again. His mother's family, the combative Lloyd Joneses, were Welsh immigrants who became prominent citizens of an agricultural valley near the village of Hillside, Wisconsin. Wright himself might have written the family motto: \"Truth Against the World.\" Encouraged by his maternal relatives, Wright showed an early aptitude for architecture he made his initial forays into building design by working on a chapel, a school and two houses in Hillside, before apprenticing in Chicago with the celebrated architect Louis H. Sullivan. Sullivan's specialty was office buildings, including classic skyscrapers, such as the Carson Pirie Scott & Company building, which were transforming the Chicago skyline.\nBut Wright devoted himself primarily to private residences, developing what he called \"Prairie Style\" houses, mostly in Oak Park, the Chicago suburb in which he established his own home. Low-slung, earth-hugging buildings with strong horizontal lines and open circulation through the public rooms, they were stripped clean of unnecessary decoration and used machine-made components. The Prairie Style revolutionized home design by responding to the domestic needs and tastes of modern families. Wright had firsthand knowledge of their requirements: in 1889, at 21, he had married Catherine Lee Tobin, 18, the daughter of a Chicago businessman, and, in short order, fathered six children.\nLike his own father, however, Wright exhibited a deep ambivalence toward family life. \"I hated the sound of the word papa,\" he wrote in his 1932 autobiography. Dissatisfaction with domesticity predisposed him toward a similarly discontented Oak Park neighbor: Mamah Cheney, a client's wife, whose career as head librarian in Port Huron, Michigan, had been thwarted by marriage and who found the duties of wife and mother a poor substitute. The Wrights and Cheneys socialized as a foursome, until, as Wright later described it, \"the thing happened that has happened to men and women since time began—the inevitable.\" In June 1909, Mamah Cheney told her husband that she was leaving him she joined Wright in Germany, where he was preparing a book on his work. The scandal titillated newspapers—the Chicago Tribune quoted Catherine as saying she had been the victim of a \"vampire\" seductress. Wright was painfully conflicted about walking out on his wife and children. He attempted a reconciliation with Catherine in 1910, but then resolved to live with Cheney, whose own work—a translation of the writings of Swedish feminist Ellen Key—provided intellectual support for this convention-defying step. Leaving the Oak Park gossipmongers behind, the couple retreated to the Wisconsin valley of the Lloyd Joneses to start anew.\nJust below the crest of a hill in Spring Green, Wright designed a secluded house he called \"Taliesin,\" or \"shining brow,\" after a Welsh bard of that name. A rambling dwelling made of local limestone, Taliesin was the culmination of the Prairie Style, a big house with long roofs extending over the walls. By all accounts, Wright and Cheney lived there happily for three years, slowly winning over neighbors who had been prejudiced by the publicity that preceded them—until Taliesin became the setting for the greatest tragedy of the architect's long and eventful life. On August 15, 1914, while Wright was in Chicago on business, a deranged young cook locked the dining room and set it ablaze, standing with a hatchet at the only exit to bar all inside from leaving. Cheney and her two visiting children were among the seven who died. On the anguished journey to Wisconsin, a devastated Wright and his son John shared a train car with Cheney's former husband. Wright immediately vowed to rebuild the house, which was mostly in ruins. But he never fully recovered emotionally. \"Something in him died with her, something loveable and gentle,\" his son later wrote in a memoir. (In April 1925, as the result of defective wiring, the second Taliesin also suffered a calamitous fire it would be replaced by a third.)\nWright's domestic life took another turn when a condolence letter from a wealthy divorcée, the determinedly artistic Miriam Noel, led to a meeting and—less than six months after Cheney's death—to an invitation for Noel to come live with Wright at Taliesin. With her financial help, he reconstructed the damaged house. But Taliesin II did not become the sanctuary he sought. Wright was a theatrical personality, with a penchant for flowing hair, Norfolk jackets and low-hanging neckties. Yet even by his standards, the needy Noel was flamboyantly attention-seeking. Jealous of his devotion to Cheney's memory, she staged noisy altercations, leading to an angry separation only nine months after they met. Although the split appeared to be final, in November 1922, Wright obtained a divorce from Catherine and married Noel a year later. But wedlock only exacerbated their problems. Five months after the wedding, Noel left him, opening an exchange of ugly accusations and countercharges in a divorce proceeding that would drag on for years.\nDuring this tempestuous period, Wright had worked on just a few major projects: the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo, the Midway Gardens pleasure park in Chicago, and Taliesin. All three were expansions and refinements of work he had done previously rather than new directions. From 1915 to 1925, Wright executed only 29 commissions, a drastic drop-off from the output of his youth when, between 1901 and 1909, he built 90 of 135 commissions. In 1932, in their influential Museum of Modern Art exhibition on the \"International Style\" in architecture, Philip Johnson and Henry-Russell Hitchcock listed Wright among the \"older generation\" of architects. Indeed, by this time Wright had been a force in American architecture for more than three decades and was devoting most of his time to giving lectures and publishing essays it was easy to believe that his best years were behind him. But in fact, many of his most heralded works were still to come.\nOn November 30, 1924, attending a ballet in Chicago, Wright had noticed a young woman seated next to him. \"I secretly observed her aristocratic bearing, no hat, her dark hair parted in the middle and smoothed over her ears, a light small shawl over her shoulders, little or no makeup, very simply dressed,\" he wrote in his autobiography. Wright \"instantly liked her looks.\" For her part, 26-year-old Olgivanna Lazovich Hinzenberg, a Montenegrin educated in Russia, had come to Chicago to try to salvage her marriage to a Russian architect, with whom she had had a daughter, Svetlana. Even before taking her seat, she would recall in an unpublished memoir, she had noticed \"a strikingly handsome, noble head with a crown of wavy grey hair.\" Upon discovering that the ticket she had purchased at the last minute seated her next to this poetic-looking man, her \"heart beat fast.\" During the performance, he turned to her and said, \"Don't you think that these dancers and the dances are dead?\" She nodded in agreement. \"And he smiled, looking at me with unconcealed admiration,\" she recalled. \"I knew then that this was to be.\" In February 1925, Hinzenberg moved into Taliesin II, where they both waited for their divorces to become final. On the very night in 1925 that Taliesin II burned, she told him that she was pregnant with their child, a daughter they would name Iovanna. They wed on August 25, 1928, and lived together for the rest of Wright's life. The rebuilt Taliesin III would be home to Svetlana and Iovanna—and, in a broader sense, to a community of students and young architects that, beginning in 1932, the Wrights invited to come live and work with them as the Taliesin Fellowship. After Wright suffered a spell of pneumonia in 1936, the community expanded to a wintertime settlement he designed in Scottsdale, Arizona, on the outskirts of Phoenix. He dubbed it Taliesin West.\nIn the last quarter-century of his life, Wright pushed his ideas as far as he could. The cantilevering that he had employed for the exaggeratedly horizontal roofs of the Prairie Style houses assumed a new grandeur in Fallingwater (1934-37), the country house for Pittsburgh department-store owner Edgar Kaufmann Sr., which Wright composed of broad planes of concrete terraces and flat roofs, and—in a stroke of panache—he perched over a waterfall in western Pennsylvania. (Like many Wright buildings, Fallingwater has better stood the test of time aesthetically than physically. It required an $11.5 million renovation, completed in 2003, to correct its sagging cantilevers, leaking roofs and terraces, and interior mildew infestation.) While designing Fallingwater, Wright also transformed the skylit open clerical space of the early Larkin Building into the Great Workroom of the Johnson Wax Company Administration Building (1936) in Racine, Wisconsin, with its graceful columns that, modeled on lily pads, spread to support disks with overhead skylights of Pyrex glass tubing.\nWright's ambition to elevate American society through architecture grew exponentially from the quadruple block plan in Oak Park to the scheme for Broadacre City—a proposal in the 1930s for a sprawling, low-rise development that would roll out a patchwork of houses, farms and businesses, connected by highways and monorails, across the American landscape. His desire to provide affordable, individualized homes that met the needs of middle-class Americans found its ultimate expression in the \"Usonian\" houses he introduced in 1937 and continued to develop afterward: customizable homes that were positioned on their sites to capture winter sun for passive solar heating and outfitted with eaves to provide summer shade constructed with glass, brick and wood that made surface decoration such as paint or wallpaper superfluous lit by clerestory windows beneath the roofline and by built-in electric fixtures shielded from the street to afford privacy and supplemented with an open carport, in deference to the means of transportation that could ultimately decentralize cities. \"I don't build a house without predicting the end of the present social order,\" Wright said in 1938. \"Every building is a missionary.\"\nHis use of \"missionary\" was revealing. Wright said that his architecture always aimed to serve the client's needs. But he relied on his own assessment of those needs. Speaking of residential clients, he once said, \"It's their duty to understand, to appreciate, and conform insofar as possible to the idea of the house.\" Toward the end of his life, he constructed his second and last skyscraper, the 19-story H. C. Price Company Office Tower (1952-56) in Bartlesville, Oklahoma. After it was completed, Wright appeared with his client at a convocation in town. \"A person in the audience asked the question, ‘What's your first prerequisite?'\" archivist Pfeiffer recalled. \"Mr. Wright said, ‘Well, to fulfill a client's wishes.' To which Price said, ‘I wanted a three-story building.' Mr. Wright said, ‘You didn't know what you wanted.'\"\nIn developing the Guggenheim Museum, Wright exercised his usual latitude in interpreting the client's wishes as well as his equally typical flair for high-flown comparisons. He described the form he came up with as an \"inverted ziggurat,\" which nicely linked it to the temples in the Mesopotamian Cradle of Civilization. In fact, the Guggenheim traced its immediate lineage to an unbuilt Wright project that the architect based on the typology of a parking garage—a spiral ramp he designed in 1924 for the mountaintop Gordon Strong Automobile Objective and Planetarium. Wright envisioned visitors driving their cars up an exterior ramp and handing them over to valets for conveyance to the bottom. They could then walk down a pedestrian ramp, admiring the landscape before reaching the planetarium at ground level. \"I have found it hard to look a snail in the face since I stole the idea of his house—from his back,\" Wright wrote to Strong, after the Chicago businessman expressed dissatisfaction with the plans. \"The spiral is so natural and organic a form for whatever would ascend that I did not see why it should not be played upon and made equally available for descent at one and the same time.\" Yet Wright also admitted admiration for the industrial designs of Albert Kahn—a Detroit-based architect whose reinforced-concrete, ramped parking garages foreshadowed both the Strong Automobile Objective and the Guggenheim.\nIn the long negotiations over costs and safety-code stipulations that protracted the construction of the museum, Wright was forced to compromise. \"Architecture, may it please the court, is the welding of imagination and common sense into a restraint upon specialists, codes and fools,\" he wrote in a draft cover letter for an application to the Board of Standards and Appeals. (At the urging of Harry Guggenheim, he omitted the word \"fools.\") One sacrificed feature was an unconventional glass elevator that would have whisked visitors to the summit, from which they would then descend on foot. Instead, the museum has had to get by with a prosaic elevator far too small to cope with the attending crowds as a result, most visitors survey an exhibition while ascending the ramp. Curators typically arrange their shows with that in mind. \"You cannot get enough people into that tiny elevator,\" says David van der Leer, an assistant curator of architecture and design, who worked on the Wright exhibition. \"The building is so much more heavily trafficked these days that you would need an elevator in the central void to do that.\"\nInstallation of the Wright retrospective brought into high relief the discrepancies between the building's symbolic power and its functional capabilities. For instance, to display Wright's drawings—an unparalleled assortment, which for conservation reasons will not be on view again for at least a decade—the curators placed a mesh fabric \"shower cap\" on the overhead dome to weaken the light, which otherwise would cause the colors on the paper drawings to fade. \"On the one hand, you want to display the building as well as possible, and on the other, you need to show the drawings,\" van der Leer explains.\nThe Guggenheim emerged last year from a $28 million, four-year restoration, during which cracks and water damage in the concrete were patched, and the peeling exterior paint (10 to 12 layers' worth) was removed and replaced. Wright buildings are notorious for their maintenance difficulties. During Wright's lifetime, the problems were aggravated by the architect's expressed indifference. One famous story recounts an outraged phone call made by Herbert Johnson, an important Wright client, to report that at a dinner party in his new house, water from a leaky roof was dripping on his head. Wright suggested he move his chair.\nStill, when you consider that in many projects the architect designed every element, down to the furniture and light fixtures, his bloopers are understandable. Proudly describing the Larkin Building, Wright said, many years after it opened, \"I was a real Leonardo da Vinci when I built that building, everything in it was my invention.\" Because he was constantly pushing the latest technologies to their utmost, Wright probably resigned himself to the inevitable shortfalls that accompany experimentation. \"Wright remained throughout his life the romantic he had been since childhood,\" historian William Cronon wrote in 1994. \"As such, he brought a romantic's vision and a romantic's scale of values to the practical challenges of his life.\" If the architect seemed not to take the glitches in his built projects too seriously, it may be that his mind was elsewhere. \"Every time I go into that building, it is such an uplifting of the human spirit,\" says Pfeiffer, who probably is the best living guide to Wright's thinking about the Guggenheim. The museum is often said by architectural critics to constitute the apotheosis of Wright's lifelong desire to make space fluid and continuous. But it represents something else as well. By inverting the ziggurat so that the top keeps getting wider, Wright said he was inventing a form of \"pure optimism.\" Even in his 90s, he kept his mind open to expanding possibilities.\nArthur Lubow wrote about the 17th-century Italian sculptor Gian Lorenzo Bernini in the October 2008 issue.\nPrairie School Architecture\nA year later, Wright began an apprenticeship with the Chicago architectural firm of Adler and Sullivan, working directly under Louis Sullivan, the great American architect best known as \"the father of skyscrapers.\" Sullivan, who rejected ornate European styles in favor of a cleaner aesthetic summed up by his maxim \"form follows function,\" had a profound influence on Wright, who would eventually carry Sullivan&aposs dream of defining a uniquely American style of architecture to completion. Wright worked for Sullivan until 1893 when he breached their contract by accepting private commissions to design homes and the two parted ways.\nIn 1889, a year after he began working for Louis Sullivan, the 22-year-old Wright married a 19-year-old woman named Catherine Tobin, and they eventually had six children together. Their home in the Oak Park suburb of Chicago, now known as the Frank Lloyd Wright home and studio, is considered his first architectural masterpiece. It was there that Wright established his own architectural practice upon leaving Adler and Sullivan in 1893. That same year, he designed the Winslow House in River Forest, which with its horizontal emphasis and expansive, open interior spaces is the first example of Wright&aposs revolutionary style, later dubbed \"organic architecture.\"\nOver the next several years, Wright designed a series of residences and public buildings that became known as the leading examples of the \"Prairie School\" of architecture. These were single-story homes with low, pitched roofs and long rows of casement windows, employing only locally available materials and wood that was always unstained and unpainted, emphasizing its natural beauty. Wright&aposs most celebrated \"Prairie School\" buildings include the Robie House in Chicago and the Unity Temple in Oak Park. While such works made Wright a celebrity and his work became the subject of much acclaim in Europe, he remained relatively unknown outside of architectural circles in the United States.\nFrank Lloyd Wright - History\n***COVID-19 UPDATE***DOCENT LED TOURS ONLY - LIMITED NUMBER OF TICKETS PER TOUR - RESERVATIONS REQUIRED\nCommissioned in 1916 and completed in 1918, Frank Lloyd Wright's Allen House is named after its first owners, newspaper publisher Henry Allen and his wife, Elsie. It was the last of the architect's famous prairie houses, which emphasized horizontal lines, earth tones and a continuous blending of interiors with exteriors.\nArchitectural writers who have visited the house believe its living room is \"one of the great rooms of the 20th century\". The home features more than 30 pieces of Wright-designed furniture, all of its original art glass and several new-for-their-time innovations, such as wall-hung water closets and an attached garage. Restored back to 1918, the house exemplifies Frank Lloyd Wright's philosophy of living in harmony with nature. The house was pivotal in the movement to the Usonian designs of 1935. Interior furnishings manufactured by Niedecken Walbridge represent the last of twelve collaborations. The Allen House is considered by many visitors \"the house of choice to live in!\"\nVisit the site that USA Today considers one of the \"10 great Frank Lloyd Wright home tours\" in the nation.

Born in Richland Center on June 8, 1867, he always regarded Wisconsin as his home. After early years in Madison and Spring Green, he ventured to Chicago in 1887, where he developed his revolutionary ideas and created a thriving practice in the prosperous suburb of Oak Park. In 1911, he returned to Wisconsin, taking a farm near Spring Green and turning it into a laboratory where he developed and built his ideas for more than fifty years.\nThese ideas and ideals spread from the Midwest throughout the United States, then worldwide, and have entered the very fabric of our American culture.\nIn the late 1950’s, Wright was the center of an astonishingly successful architectural practice, and was involved in such major projects as the Guggenheim Museum in New York City, the Marin County Civic Center near San Francisco, and the Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church near Milwaukee. In addition, he was designing many private homes.\nThe 1958 Seth Peterson Cottage is Wright’s last Wisconsin building. Wright died in April, 1959, before Cottage construction was completed.\nAfter a tour in the Army, Peterson returned to his hometown and took a job as one of state government’s first computer operators. He retained his dream of working with Wright, though, and on several occasions he asked the master to design a home for him. Wright refused because of the press of other work, but eventually Peterson sent Wright a retainer, which Wright promptly spent. So he was finally obligated to design Peterson’s dream house.\nPeterson had purchased a piece of property on quiet Mirror Lake, near Wisconsin Dells, and it was for this dramatic wooded site that he asked Wright to design a small house just big enough for Peterson and his intended bride.\nInside the cottage, the soaring roof is offset by the lower stonewalled enclosure of the east side, a cozy retreat centered on the fireplace. In the bedroom a ribbon of narrow windows just beneath the roof provides a wash of light offering shelter and privacy.\nOnly one element of applied decoration marks this elegant and simple cottage: a frieze of stylized pine trees cut from plywood and set into a narrow row of windows above the main living room windows.\nRehabilitation of the Seth Peterson Cottage took more than three years. The Seth Peterson Cottage Conservancy hired architect John Eifler, who was experienced in restoring Wright buildings, to direct the project.\nWhen rehabilitation work began in 1989, the boarded-up building was in total disrepair. Water damage had destroyed the flat roof over the bedroom as well as part of the sloped living room roof. The heating, electrical and plumbing systems were completely deteriorated. Kitchen, bedroom and bathroom cabinets and fixtures were either missing or too badly damaged to salvage and windows and door frames were in disrepair. Much of the glass was broken or missing. The sandstone walls and flagstone floor were the only portions of the building still in good condition. Volunteers removed and sanded salvageable woodwork. Wisconsin Conservation Corps crews removed and numbered each floor flagstone, following a detailed floor diagram. Crews also removed the old hot air heating ducts, the furnace and the concrete slab under the flagstone floor.\nRehabilitation continued with replacement of the roof, installation of new electrical and plumbing systems, and a new well and septic system. Woodwork was refinished or replaced, new custom-made windows were installed, and the flagstone floor was re-laid over the new concrete slab in which the pipes for the hot water radiant heating system are embedded. Wright’s original design called for this type of heating system, but was not installed for cost reasons as part of the original construction.\nKitchen, bedroom and bathroom cabinets and shelves were rebuilt using the ruined units as models, and the furniture Wright designed for the house was finally built. To fully furnish the cottage for rental purposes, John Eifler designed additional furniture pieces to complement Wright’s design.\nThe past twenty years have also seen significant improvements made to the Cottage and environs. Architect John Eifler designed a complementary storage shed, and board member Paul Wagner designed a shed to store all the firewood culled from Mirror Lake State Park. To enable guests to take full advantage of Mirror Lake, a dock was built and a canoe was donated.\nOther improvements included the attractive red entrance gate designed by Bill Martinelli, new outdoor lighting, and extensive landscaping. In 2005 air conditioning was installed for the comfort of our rental guests. In 2006 a mini rehab was completed with the furniture being repaired and refinished, all upholstery replaced, interior and exterior woodwork refinished, and repairs to the radiant floor. In 2008 the cedar shingles and the fire brick in the fireplace were replaced. In 2009 a high efficiency, on demand boiler was installed and in 2011 the cedar shingles on the shed were replaced and a new cooktop installed in the Cottage.\nIn the past two decades, the Cottage has received more than 10,000 overnight guests from most states and many foreign countries. Our monthly tours now attract more than a thousand visitors a year. The Cottage is kept in the public eye through many feature articles, including those that have appeared in Architectural Digest, The New York Times, and the Chicago Tribune.\nAncestry [ edit | edit source ]\nFrank Lloyd Wright was born Frank Lincoln Wright in the farming town of Richland Center, Wisconsin, United States, in 1867. His father, William Cary Wright (1825–1904), ΐ] was an orator, music teacher, occasional lawyer, and itinerant minister. Wright's mother, Anna Lloyd Jones (1838/39 – 1923), met William Cary Wright while working as a county school teacher when William was the superintendent of schools for Richland County.\nOriginally from Massachusetts, William Wright had been a Baptist minister, but he later joined his wife's family in the Unitarian faith. Anna was a member of the well-known Lloyd Jones family who had emigrated from Wales to Spring Green, Wisconsin. One of Anna's brothers was Jenkin Lloyd Jones, an important figure in the spread of the Unitarian faith in the Midwest. Both of Wright's parents were strong-willed individuals with artistic interests that they passed on to him.\nChildhood [ edit | edit source ]\nAccording to Wright's autobiography, his mother declared when she was expecting that her first child would grow up to build beautiful buildings. She decorated his nursery with engravings of English cathedrals torn from a periodical to encourage the infant's ambition. In 1870, the family moved to Weymouth, Massachusetts, where William ministered to a small congregation.\nIn 1876, Anna visited the Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia, where she saw an exhibit of educational blocks created by Friedrich Wilhelm August Fröbel. The blocks, known as Froebel Gifts, were the foundation of his innovative kindergarten curriculum. Anna, a trained teacher, was excited by the program and bought a set with which young Wright spent much time playing. The blocks in the set were geometrically shaped and could be assembled in various combinations to form three-dimensional compositions. In his autobiography, Wright described the influence of these exercises on his approach to design: \"For several years, I sat at the little kindergarten table-top… and played… with the cube, the sphere and the triangle—these smooth wooden maple blocks… All are in my fingers to this day… \" Α] Many of Wright's buildings are notable for their geometrical clarity.\nThe Wright family struggled financially in Weymouth and returned to Spring Green, where the supportive Lloyd Jones clan could help William find employment. They settled in Madison, where William taught music lessons and served as the secretary to the newly formed Unitarian society. Although William was a distant parent, he shared his love of music, especially the works of Johann Sebastian Bach, with his children.\nSoon after Wright turned 14, his parents separated. Anna had been unhappy for some time with William's inability to provide for his family and asked him to leave. The divorce was finalized in 1885 after William sued Anna for lack of physical affection. William left Wisconsin after the divorce, and Wright claimed he never saw his father again. Β] At this time he changed his middle name from Lincoln to Lloyd in honor of his mother's family, the Lloyd Joneses.\nEducation (1885–1887) [ edit | edit source ]\nWright attended Madison High School, it is unknown if he graduated. Γ] In 1886 he was admitted to the University of Wisconsin–Madison as a special student. While there, Wright joined Phi Delta Theta fraternity, Δ] took classes part-time for two semesters, and worked with Allan D. Conover, a professor of civil engineering. Ε] Wright left the school without taking a degree, although he was granted an honorary doctorate of fine arts from the university in 1955.

From its humble beginnings as a symbol of rebellion to its current status as a fashion staple, the journey of the men's biker jacket is a fascinating tale of evolution and cultural significance. In this blog post, we'll delve into the rich history and transformation of men's biker jackets, exploring how they transitioned from symbols of rebellion to esteemed pieces of upper-class fashion in the UK.\nThe Birth of Rebellion:\nThe story of the men's biker jacket begins in the post-war era of the 1950s, where it emerged as a symbol of rebellion and non-conformity. Originally worn by motorcycle gangs and rebellious youth, the biker jacket became synonymous with a rugged, anti-establishment ethos. Its rugged leather construction and distinctive details, such as asymmetrical zippers and stud embellishments, embodied the spirit of rebellion that defined the era. As the jacket gained popularity among subcultures, its association with rebellion became solidified, creating a lasting image of defiance and independence.\nIconic Styles Through the Decades:\nAs the decades passed, the men's biker jacket evolved to reflect the changing tastes and attitudes of society. In the 1960s, it found its way into mainstream fashion thanks to style icons like Marlon Brando and James Dean, who immortalized the biker jacket in films like \"The Wild One\" and \"Rebel Without a Cause.\" By the 1970s and 1980s, the biker jacket had become a symbol of edgy cool, worn by rock stars and fashion rebels alike. Each decade brought new interpretations of the biker jacket, from sleek and minimalist designs to bold and embellished styles, reflecting the evolving fashion landscape and cultural influences of the time.\nAdaptation into Mainstream Fashion:\nThe 1990s marked a turning point for the men's biker jacket, as it transitioned from a symbol of rebellion to a coveted fashion item.

Today, the men's biker jacket is a ubiquitous presence on catwalks and red carpets, coveted by fashion enthusiasts and celebrities alike. With its timeless appeal and versatile styling options, the biker jacket has cemented its status as a fashion staple in the UK and beyond, transcending its subcultural origins to become a symbol of sophistication and style.\nSymbolism and Cultural Significance:\nBeyond its aesthetic appeal, the men's biker jacket carries deep symbolic meaning. It represents a spirit of freedom, individuality, and self-expression – qualities that have resonated with generations of wearers. In the UK, the biker jacket is not just a piece of clothing; it's a cultural artefact that speaks to the rebellious spirit and independent streak of the British people. As a symbol of rebellion, the biker jacket embodies the ethos of the counterculture movements of the 20th century, representing a rejection of societal norms and a celebration of individualism. In today's fashion landscape, the biker jacket continues to carry these symbolic associations, serving as a reminder of the power of self-expression and the enduring allure of rebellion.\nMaterials and Construction:\nAt the heart of the men's biker jacket is its construction and materials. Traditionally crafted from premium quality leather, the biker jacket is built to last, with sturdy stitching, durable hardware, and rugged details that withstand the test of time. In the UK, where craftsmanship and quality are prized, the men's leather biker jacket is a testament to British ingenuity and craftsmanship. From the finest Italian leather to locally sourced hides, the materials used in biker jacket construction are carefully selected for their durability, comfort, and aesthetic appeal. With meticulous attention to detail and expert craftsmanship, each biker jacket is a work of art, designed to stand the test of time and become a cherished wardrobe staple for generations to come.\nModern Interpretations and Trends:\nIn the modern era, the men's biker jacket continues to evolve, with designers putting their own unique spin on this classic garment. From sleek, minimalist designs to bold, statement-making styles, there's a biker jacket for every taste and aesthetic. In the UK, where upper-class fashion meets street style cool, the men's biker jacket remains a versatile wardrobe staple that effortlessly transitions from day to night. With its timeless appeal and versatile styling options, the biker jacket continues to inspire fashion enthusiasts and designers alike, proving that rebellion never goes out of style.\nThe Versatility of Biker Jackets:\nOne of the key reasons for the enduring popularity of the men's biker jacket is its versatility. Whether dressed up with tailored trousers and a crisp shirt or dressed down with jeans and a t-shirt, the biker jacket adds an instant touch of rugged sophistication to any ensemble. In the UK, where fashion is all about blending classic elegance with contemporary edge, the biker jacket is the ultimate statement piece. With its ability to effortlessly elevate any outfit, the biker jacket has become a go-to wardrobe staple for men of all ages and style sensibilities. From the streets of London to the runways of Paris, the biker jacket is a symbol of timeless style and effortless cool, proving that rebellion never goes out of fashion.\nCelebrities and Style Icons:\nFrom rock legends like David Bowie and Mick Jagger to modern-day style icons like David Beckham and Harry Styles, celebrities have long been fans of the men's biker jacket. Their influence has helped to cement the garment's status as a must-have item in the wardrobes of fashion-forward men across the UK.

Here are the collective treatment guidelines that the healthcare staff must work according to and which must contribute to good and equal care and the best possible knowledge in the meeting with the patients.\n- Now we have a website that is organic and will be filled continuously with new information. It is structured, simple and looks nice. We also think it differs from the more traditional medical website, says Carina Ekner, editor at the Knowledge Management and Support unit, Region Stockholm.\nVisualization to find the right information\nThe biggest challenge was managing and structuring the large amount of information. The new site now has 27 entrances to different medical information areas and each area covers a different amount of information in turn. To make it easy and intuitive for visitors to quickly find the right area, our designer created an illustration for each area.\nIllustrations for different care areas\n- In addition to the illustrations clearly showing which area of care it is about, they also need to make the website more human and warm. Since the website is information heavy with clinical medical content, we tried to balance it with a more soft and organic design language. The result was a website that really stands out, says Marko Tosic, designer.\nIn the work to produce which illustration was suitable for each area, some discussions and brainstorming between Marko and Carina were required.\nHealthcare lifestyle icon\n- We discussed, for example, how best to visualize the area called Lifestyle. I had an idea for a hamburger that would show bad eating habits. Carina was more into something about a bicycle, because lifestyle habits are not only about what you put into yourself, but also about being active and living healthily. It became a cyclist, but with a slightly rounder belly than it originally had. Such details are important and we had good discussions about each illustration before we were completely satisfied, says Marko.\nVisual elements to lighten up the complicated content\nDespite the site's heavy content, the visual expression has succeeded in de-dramatizing and making the visitor smile a little. One of the more important illustrations is the three people in the top image on the home page. Since the website's target group is all professions within the healthcare professions, the word diversity made its mark on the illustration.\nHumor can also make a website more human and warm. That's what Marko and Carina thought when they produced illustrations for the 404 page and a page showing that the content is under construction.\n- With stylish, well-balanced typography, our very own icons and illustrations and the twinkle in the eye, our hope is that the healthcare staff will benefit greatly from and feel really good inside the site, says Carina.\n- I want to give praise to Carina and her colleagues for excellent collaboration and for daring to pursue the idea with the illustrations. It could have been a typical, boring website with lots of information and nothing more. But they saw the value of the investment with the illustrations and it turned out to be a great website, says Marko.\nThe navigation was a clever challenge, also technically\nBuilding a design-wise attractive site and at the same time including all text content and creating a clear structure was also technically a tricky challenge.\n- It was a challenge to build a navigation for such a large information structure with different areas. Initially, it was clever to have an overview and we had to adapt and explore along the way, says Fredrik Stodne, project manager and Sitevision manager at Soleil.\n- Technically, we have created good solutions for both navigation and menu management. Their own icons really stand out and there we have also created good solutions with simple navigation. Both they and we are a little extra proud of that, says Fredrik.\nThe need for knowledge support with digitized material gathered in one place has been long-awaited among healthcare professionals.\n- The new website is accessible and mobile friendly. There is also an available information search that is adapted based on subject area, says Karin Eklöf Lignell, editor and colleague with Carina at the same unit.\nThe site has also been prepared to automatically receive and share information at national, regional and local levels.\nLooking forward to further development\nThe collaboration has worked really well and there is still a lot to work on, the search function for example.

With an integrated piston, they function according to the positive displacement principle and ensure that the correct volume of liquid is dispensed regardless of the physical properties of the liquid you work with (e.g., viscosity, volatility, density, temperature). You can therefore achieve high-precision dispensing, independent of the flow characteristics of the liquid, and safely work with radioactive or toxic materials due to the hermetically sealed piston that prevents aerosol contamination.\nEppendorf pioneered the Multipette/Combitips multi-dispenser system in 1978 and improved it several times since. It was the very first pipetting system allowing users to fill the tip once and dispense multiple times. The concept remains a driver for efficient liquid handling and a staple in many labs working with plates or series of tubes.\nHow can you recognize an original Combitip from Eppendorf?\nUnmistakeably Eppendorf: All original Combitips advanced feature a “ring” of drop-shaped relief elements on the edge of the tip crown.", "domain": "design"}

Whether you are at home or in the office, the monitor’s virtually frameless design and ergonomic functionality allows it to fit naturally into your workplace environment. The housing is available in both an elegant black and in white, with matching white cables.\nFlexScan office monitors are an attractive addition to any office. Their sleek, compact design is elegant and the ideal size. The virtually frameless models are the perfect choice for multi-screen solutions and also look great as a stand-alone monitor, all while offering maximum usability.\nElectrostatic switches are integrated into the front of the EV2460-BK instead of mechanical buttons. This ensures ease of use while also giving the monitor an extremely elegant look. The speakers and all the controls are also built into the bezel, pointing forward in the direction of the user. They are fully integrated into the monitor’s flat, nearly frameless design to offer an excellent user experience.\nThere are many things that go into creating a high-precision/high-contrast, bright and crisp screen. We constantly develop our monitor technology, use only high-end materials and carefully calibrate every single monitor during production. As a result of these efforts, you can always rely on excellent image reproduction.\nThe monitor is capable of all three key elements of excellent image quality: excellent resolution of 1920 x 1080 (Full HD) pixels, maximum contrast of 1000:1, and stable brightness of up to 250 cd/m². That means you will experience razor-sharp text contours, brilliant graphics, and clear images. Thanks to the high-quality IPS panels with LED backlight, contrasts and colours remain stable from every viewing angle.\nAn image can only be perfect if the colours are, too. This is why EIZO monitors have a 10-bit look-up table at a minimum, which allows the colour information to be assigned much more precisely than with conventional 8-bit LUTs. The finest colour gradations ensure that gradients are always perfectly displayed, while also offering customised adjustment options. For example, you can adjust the white balance from 4000 K to 10000 K in 500-K intervals.\nFlexScan monitors ensure computer workstations are more ergonomic. In addition to alleviating eye and back strain, the monitors also meet the user’s unique requirements. This is because we don’t believe that you should have to adjust to your workstation – your workstation should adapt to your needs.\nAt day, at night, bright, dark: No matter when and how you work, the Auto EcoView function continuously measures changes of the ambient light and optimises the monitor with ideal brightness values automatically by using a sensor. The benefits: Annoying glare is reduced, your eyes will not get tired as quickly. A special two-point control takes into account the brightest and darkest environment over the course of the day with the respectively desired screen brightness. Another advantage: Thanks to the automatic brightness adjustment, you will save up to 50% of your electricity costs in comparison to a monitor that is permanently operated at maximum brightness.\nOf course, you can also continue to configure the monitor manually. EcoView Index is used for orientation on how environmentally friendly and economical your settings are.\nTo help protect your eyes, EIZO has developed a hybrid technology to control the backlight. This combines the benefits of the otherwise standard PWM (pulse width modulation) and DC (direct current) control. The PWM control uses much higher frequencies than standard PWM methods. The result: a flicker-free viewing experience while maintaining picture quality and colour stability. In addition, compared to pure DC control, you can adjust the brightness to less than 1% of the maximum value in darkly lit rooms. The benefit: Your screen remains free from glare even under these conditions.\nThe flicker-free and low blue light content of the EIZO FlexScan monitors is certified by TÜV Rheinland. Learn more about why eyes get tired when working at the computer.\nThe EV2460-BK offers a perfect, non-glare surface. By minimising glare by diffusing the reflected light, the EV2460-BK effectively protects your eyes from straining. This keeps your eyes from getting as tired and allows you to sit comfortably in front of the monitor, without having to sit in a forced position to prevent glare.\nErgonomic and stable: the adjustable stand has ergonomics in focus. You can turn, swivel, and tilt the monitor in the way that is most comfortable for your back, neck and sitting posture. It can be continuously adjusted in height and lowered almost to the table or the base of the stand. This allows you to position the top row of the picture ergonomically below eye level.\nVariety of ports\nMore flexibility thanks to a variety of connections. Whether you are talking about a docking functionality, a multi-screen solution or connecting an external device, we provide a wide range of ports that allow you to easily integrate your EIZO office monitors into a broad range of office environments and workflows.\nOne monitor, many ports\nIt doesn’t get simpler than this: Most end devices, such as PCs, laptops and cameras, can be connected directly to the monitor, thanks to its wide range of signal interfaces. The screen also features four USB type A 3.1 ports. This allows different devices such as mice, keyboards and headsets to be connected. This makes your everyday work easier and guarantees a tidy desk.\nSoftware and ease of use\nImpressive features mean greater comfort. Our intelligent software solutions and intuitive controls enable you to easily manage your settings as well as operate and deploy the display as a single-screen or multi-monitor solution at work each day.\nPre-set colour modes optimise the viewing of images, texts or films. Because it makes a difference whether you are watching a film, editing a picture, surfing the net, or writing texts. At the touch of a button, you set the respective pre-set for brightness, gamma correction and colour temperature. For example, the Paper mode simulates the pleasant contrast of printed paper, which is easy on the eyes when reading and prevents fatigue.\nIn addition to the on-screen menu, you can conveniently control the EV2460-BK by using the Screen InStyle software on a Windows PC. The configuration options include colour reproduction, energy saving options, and ergonomic functions. In multi-screen systems, the settings can be applied synchronously to all connected screens with Screen InStyle.\nLearn more about Screen InStyle here.\nSystem administrators can centrally manage and control monitors connected in the network with Screen InStyle installed using the Screen InStyle Server application. This optimises power consumption and simplifies asset management of the monitors.\nLearn more about Screen InStyle Server here.\nEIZO considers longevity, sustainability and environmental friendliness to be main components of product quality. That’s why EIZO’s EcoView monitors feature intelligent energy saving features, are produced in accordance with international environmental regulations and reduce resource consumption thanks to the long service life they offer.\nSave electricity without compromising quality: The EcoView Optimizer reduces the background lighting fully automatically for dark images. This reduces electricity consumption by up to 30%. At the same time, the signal is amplified and the colour tone values adjusted. The result: You will enjoy the image quality you are used to but consume less power.\nThe monitors have an integrated mechanical power switch, which is extremely practical and energy-saving: If you switch off the monitor using the power switch, the device will stop consuming any power at all. Moreover, it consumes a maximum of 0,5 watt in standby mode.\nSocially responsible production\nThe EV2460-BK is produced in a socially responsible way. It is free of child labour and forced labour. Suppliers along the supply chain have been carefully selected and they have also committed themselves to produce in a socially responsible way. This applies in particular to conflict minerals. We present a detailed report about our social responsibility annually and voluntarily.\nLearn more about responsible corporate behaviour at EIZO here.\nEnvironmentally and climate friendly\nEach EV2460-BK is manufactured in our own factory, which implements an environmental management system in accordance with ISO 14001. This includes measures to reduce waste, wastewater and emissions, resource and energy consumption, as well as to encourage environmentally conscious behaviour among employees. We publicly report on these measures on an annual basis.\nSustainable and durable\nThe EV2460-BK is designed for a long service life that takes into account the entire lifecycle and impact on the environment. It is generally well above the five-year guarantee. Spare parts are available up to five years after the end of production. The monitor’s long service life and the ability to repair it save resources and the climate. When designing the EV2460-BK we paid attention to reducing resource consumption by using high-quality components and materials and being meticulous in production. The packaging of the EV2460-BK consists of cardboard box made of 85% recycled paper, while the transport padding is even 100% recycled material.\nA natural beauty\nReducing the use of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) found in material production, such as some paints, is a global concern.\nEIZO uses its expertise cultivated from extensive years of research to manufacture its monitor cabinets with a smooth, uniform colour and texture without using paint.\nCompliance with standards and guidelines\nThe monitor is certified according to important and all-encompassing sustainability standards such as TCO Certified Generation 9, EPEAT and ENERGY STAR®. The EV2460-BK is a safe investment, when taking into account issues such as ESG (Environmental, social and corporate governance) or SDG (Sustainable Development Goals) from the United Nations and following the necessary guidelines.\nFive-year hassle-free guarantee. As a result of constant research, further development and painstaking quality control, EIZO is able to offer a five-year guarantee for all FlexScan models. For you, this means the highest possible investment security and a low TCO (total cost of ownership).\nIs there something else you need?

I made a diagonal pattern with random-sized strips, but you can use these same instruction to adapt for a more traditional lattice pie crust. I used my flaky pie crust recipe with butter and shortening to make the pie dough. Double the recipe and divide into two. Use the first half as the base for your pie filling and be sure to leave some overhang. Use the second half to make the lattice top for the pie crust.\nStep 1: Roll out the pie crust to about 1/8-inch thick and cut into strips. I used a ruler to get a straight edge and a pizza cutter dipped in flour to cut the lattice strips. I opted for random sizes, but you can make them even for a more uniform looking lattice top.\nStep 2: Starting in the middle, lay one strip across the pie filling and cross the other over top. You can either place the second strip perpendicular to the first to create right angles, or you can go diagonally as shown in the picture below. If using different sizes of strips to weave your lattice, it makes it easier to work with if you use wider strips in the middle because they are sturdier.\nStep 3: Lift up the bottom strip up to lay another dough strip underneath, and then bring that first strip back down over top of the one that you just placed.\nStep 4: Continue lifting up alternating strips and placing others to weave the lattice. It is up to you to decide how much space to leave between the lattice strips. Note that a tightly weaved lattice will require more pie dough.\nStep 5: More weaving… A properly chilled dough will help with keeping the lattice strips intact.\nStep 6: Continue placing strips of lattice until you reach the edges of the pie.\nStep 7: Now it’s time for crimping. To make the pattern seen below, cut the excess dough, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang. Press along the edges to seal, fold it over onto itself to form a rim, and make the wavy edges with your fingers. Alternatively—and much more simply—trim the excess dough along the edge of the pie plate and press with a fork to seal.\nStep 8: Mix 1 egg yolk with 1 tablespoon milk and brush over the top of the pie. This will help it achieve a nice golden color. For an extra flaky crust, refrigerate the pie as you preheat the oven. Bake at 450˚F for 20 minutes; reduce the temperature to 375˚F and bake until golden (and the filling is bubbling, if filled with fruit), about 40 minutes more.", "domain": "design"}

However, depending on the size of your space, you might be looking for some great ways to organize closet space for maximum efficiency. Following are some useful tips and simple closet ideas you can use to keep your space in top shape and organized:\n- Keep the items you use the most often at eye level, items that are used less often down below, and those you use least of all up high in storage bins. This will not only help you retrieve things easily and quickly more often, but will also prevent unnecessary messes when doing so.\n- Don’t assume you can only stick with hangers for items in your closet; use boxes for odds and ends, hangers for dresses, suits, and blouses/dress shirts, and then drawers or bins for folded items. This will enable you to use as much space as possible.\n- Shoes don’t have to take up all the room on your floors and shelves in your closet; use cubbies, boxes, tiered shelves, and hanging organizers to keep them organized. You can stack dozens of pairs in a space that would normally only hold a few pairs.\n- Use stackable laundry baskets for easy storage, easy access, and easy sorting. If you keep dirty laundry in them, you’ll also be able to use them to carry your loads to the washing machine easily.\n- Open up more space in your closet by using other spaces more efficiently; for example, you can store out-of- season clothes under the bed in drawers or in special low-profile storage containers. You can use suitcases in other areas of the house to store seldom-used linens, sweaters, and blankets.\n- You might want to consider a rolling cart that has coordinated boxes that can be rolled in and out of the closet for you to easily find things. You can use it for clothing, office supplies, and more.\n- Use shoe boxes to store and organize things like undergarments, socks, and other smaller items. It will not only free up precious dresser drawer room, but will also keep your closets organized and useful.\n- Turn your hangers backwards, and when you wear the item on the hanger, turn it forwards again. After 12 months, any hangers that are still backwards can be your signal to donate those clothes and free up more closet space.\n- If you have a lovely (and large) collection of scarves, you can tie all of them around a hanger. With t-shirts and other items, roll them instead of folding them. You can keep the rolled-up items in drawers, suitcases, bins, and cubbies. When items are rolled instead of folded, they don’t take up as much space, and are easier to distinguish from others.\n- Use holiday ornament storage boxes as organizers for socks and underwear. The room you’ll save will allow you to fit more items in your closet without falling prey to disorganized, ugly clutter.\nBeing creative and letting go of items you no longer use are the two most important and most effective ways to keep your closet space organized and of the most use to you. Don’t hang on to anything you don’t regularly wear, and be sure to put out-of- season items out of sight to free up more space for the in-season items. Use vertical space whenever possible, and you’ll have a fantastic closet space you’ll love!", "domain": "design"}

I was asked to also make a matching sash and I think the end result was truly gorgeous. The Pepper dress is vintage inspired featuring a beautiful ruffled neck, bell sleeves and a full skirt that is perfect for twirling.\nThe dress closes easily with front snaps and has a lined bodice.

It’s a flowy dress that is great for hot weather but can easily be layered over a t-shirt for cooler weather. It features a gathered elastic bodice with tie straps at the shoulder.

This is a very cute and versatile dress!\nWhen I made this dress, my husband wasn’t convinced that the colours worked.

The Penelope version features two layers. Top layer opens in the front showcasing a second layer underneath. Both layers have ruffles along the bottom hems. The strap goes through the front and back and ties in the front centre at the opening of the top layer.\nI’ve been following @thespectaclednewt_on_etsy for a little while and I absolutely love their typewriters (photos of typewriters are theirs, not mine!). When I saw these fabrics, I couldn’t wait to make something special. Isn’t my Peplum top adorable?\nI made this dress for little Zoey in my favourite print ever. I thought she looked gorgeous!

The dress has lots of room to grow and can easily transition into a tunic or top.\nI was asked to make a set for a little girl who was due in May 2015 and her elder brother who was 8 years old at that time. The customer wanted something over the top and fun, so I came up with this set. She was overjoyed and absolutely loved the colours. I wanted the brother’s tie matching, but not too girly so I worked on a patchwork effect for the tip of the tie. I think the set turned out very well – what do you think?\nWhen I came across this incredible fabric, I knew I wanted to make something quite chic, but still cheeky. This dress style is perfect with it’s modest front and cheeky back. The full skirt reinforces the retro vibe and it’s beautifully finished with a crochet binded edge.\nThis is the gorgeous Ava having fun in my Ramona Dress. Ramona Dress is a cheeky little number.

I think it’s absolutely gorgeous on little girls so I decided to pair it with this sweet yellow rose print fabric.

The Hattie can be layered over a t-shirt or worn as a top over some leggings.\nThis Hattie was made out of a linen-lookalike 100% cotton fabric.

The Itty Bitty Baby dress slips on over the legs and ties at the shoulders for easy wearing.

The Inn has served visitors for more than a century. In 1940 a fire leveled the Hotel but left the majority of the grand dining room in tact. The Hotel was rebuilt the following year and then in 1999 the dining room was lovingly restored to its 1930’s grandeur and renamed the Grand Ballroom, complete with the high wood-beamed ceilings and the original hardwood floor.\nThe start of my design concept was the gorgeous wood that encircles the room and extends to the ceiling. The wood is very dark and the walls are white which can break up a space and make it seem smaller. I had Zack Hubbard and Ryan Reyes of Kramer Entertainment and Lighting accent and brighten the wood then deepen the hue of the walls and ceiling. This brought them closer together in tone and unified the Grand feel.\nThen I worked from the ground up. How many ballrooms do you know of that are built completely of original hardwood? The gold tones of the floor inspired the “butter” linen on the guest tables. I knew that would bring the floor up into the overall design. Now I wanted to make it modern. Grey is a popular wedding color currently and I thought it really gave it a sophisticated urban feel and loved the combination of the warm tablecloth and cool “silver” napkin.\nCorinne Smith of panacea event floral design wowed me with her brushed steel vases and “garden feel with contemporary elements” centerpieces! They truly brought the entire design to life. One of the saddest things I see in many weddings is that you have gorgeous centerpieces and linens but can’t see them due to poor lighting. Zack and Ryan used spotlights for each table and centered it on the centerpiece. This not only highlights the most important décor element at a reception it makes each table glow and provides soft ambient light for your guests.\nFrom there, I added gray and silver votives and my current favorite floral media: succulents! The flower-like heads of these incredibly versatile and eco-friendly plants added texture but kept it clean and fresh. Check back to this blog for a more of my love affair with succulents!\nI found some cool yellow and grey note cards on sale and printed up a wedding menu and tucked it into a square pocket-fold in the napkin. Menus can be an affordable way to add fun and color to your table design and I think guests appreciate a peek of what’s to come.\nNow, you can come up with a gorgeous design with all these elements but if its not captured by the right photographer it only becomes a dim memory. Jake Odening with Mike Larson Photography Inc. expressed the whole design in these images with a careful eye and awesome talent.\nYou don’t always have to go big to freshen up a space. The Paso Robles Ballroom has a lovely front Parlor for your guests to gather for cocktails with a beautiful bar. I used a fun welcome sign and asked Corinne to add simple floral elements to the old room key and mail slots frame. I had Zack add two up lights to brighten the back wall then updated the bar with a modern piece of fabric. Add Corinne’s fabulous flower features and you have a fun a fresh place for guests to get the party started!\nAgain, it was an honor to work with Jan Lynch and the staff at The Paso Robles Inn. The ballroom is a testament to craftsmanship and is truly a beautiful example of a Phoenix Rising.\nNext time you are thinking of renting a facility that is authentic and has history but you are concerned it will come across as old fashioned, just find the right wedding team and you can have it all.

The first rule in this visual symphony is simplicity. A succinct message, focused on a single idea or call-to-action, demands attention in a world saturated with stimuli. Typography plays a crucial role – bold, legible fonts create a visual rhythm, ensuring that your message is not just seen but remembered.\nThe canvas of a billboard thrives on the dance of contrast and color. High contrast between text and background, coupled with carefully chosen colors, elevates visibility and brand vibrancy. Visuals are the silent storytellers. Opt for high-quality, relevant imagery that complements your message, turning a fleeting glance into a lasting connection. Whitespace is the unsung hero, offering breathing room amidst information overload. It transforms your billboard into a visual oasis, ensuring each element shines without crowding.\nLocation matters, and billboards are dynamic storytellers influenced by their surroundings. Tailor your design to the traffic speed, viewing distance, and ambient environment for maximum impact. Consistency in branding is the glue that unites your message with brand identity. From legible contact information to compelling calls to action, every element should guide the viewer seamlessly into engagement. Mastering the art of billboard design is a balance of creativity, strategy, and precision. Embrace simplicity, wield contrast, and let your billboard be a visual masterpiece that not only captures attention but also leaves an indelible mark.", "domain": "design"}

They can't just be good, they have to look good too. Some certainly hit the spot, some don't. While style is totally subjective, it's fair to say that there's a line between a beautifully fashion-forward smartwatch and something that looks cheap and nasty.\nWithings Steel HR\nIf you're looking for a classic, sleek, minimal, beautifully designed smartwatch, then the Withings Steel HR will take some beating.\nSteel HR has been designed to include a screen that shows you all the information you want at a glance, but with no compromise on style. The subtle but easy-to-read digital screen displays heart rate, number of steps, distance, calories burned, set alarm time, and smartphone alerts — all housed within a minimalist watch case.\nWith the Steel HR, you get a battery that lasts for up to 25 days, water restistant for up to 50 metres which features a heart rate tracker and sleep monitor. The great thing about this particular smartwatch is that your wrist will never look better, because the Withings' timeless design balances technology and everyday wearability flawlessly. The Withings Steel HR are available in 40mm black, 36mm black, or 36mm white.\nSamsung Gear 2 by de GRISOGONO\nIf you are a big fan glamour and sparkle, and if you're looking for a truly high-quality smartwatch, then the Samsung Gear 2 by de GRISOGONO is the choice for you.\nTwo iconic brands unite to create the most glamourous smartwatch. de GRISOGONO's vision and boldness meet Samsung's technological expertise. A high-tech object transformed into a glamourous accessory. Style and technology blended perfectly.\nClaiming to symbolise the best of the fashion world and the tech world, the Samsung Gear 2 by de GRISOGONO looks like a bedazzled piece of high-priced arm candy. Set with rose gold and white and black diamonds, and designed by world-class designer Fawaz Gruosi, this smartwatch embodies decadence and pure fashion.\nNot only does it function as a reliable smartwatch, but it also comes dripping in gold – and if you don't like it in black, you can always also choose white.\nA word of caution to iPhone users: not all the watch's features will work on iOS and you'll be limited in terms of the app downloads.\nWhite Ceramic Apple Watch Series 2\nNothing can really beat the beautiful, simple design of an Apple Watch, except for one thing: the White Ceramic Apple Watch Series 2.\nDesigned to be water resistant for up to 50 metres, not only is this smartwatch element-proof, but it's also very chic and stylish.\nIn 2016, minimal, clean, white cases were all the rage for iPhone and MacBook covers, and now it's clear that this trend has continued into wearables.\nYou can pick your White Ceramic Apple Watch Series 2 in two different sizes, and after you put it on, not only will you be monitoring your heartrate, be able to use voice commands, and get up to 18 hours of battery life, but you'll also be able to feel like you're wearing a fashion-forward piece of smartwatch style and technology.\nYou know how less is more? Minimalist is stylish, keep it simple. Well we're going to have to backtrack a bit because while the Fitbit Alta is a minimal, sleek little smartwatch, but it's not the best looking wearable.\nBut the Fitbit Alta effortlessly tracks your steps, distance, active minutes, and calories burned throughout the day. This futuristic-looking smartwatch tries too hard to look minimalistic, sleek, and fashionable, and because of that it does falls short. It almost reminds me of a rubber band that you get when you go into an amusement park, which is not the best way to feel about a smartwatch.\nWhile Fitbit arguably makes some of the best wearables and smartwatches around, and while the Fitbit Alta is still a fantastic device to track your sleep and monitor your fitness progress, the design on this one falls short, it just not have the look or feel of it's competitors.\nOverall the White ceramic Apple Watch Series is the best choice for all round looks and capability, for a cool, stylish smartwatch then the Withings Steel HR is the one for you. But if you want to go for all out looks and glamour then it has to be the Samsung Gear 2 by de GRISOGONO.", "domain": "design"}

Through his workshops, Tom led participants through traditional methods of making a cow horn or bison horn spoon.\nWhat makes horn a unique material to work with?\nHorn is sometimes referred to as “18th century plastic.”\nThe part we see of an animal’s horn—which, unlike antlers, does not shed—is a layer of keratinized epidermis (keratin); the same material as fingernails, hooves, and hair.\nTo use horn as a medium, the keratin sleeve is taken from the skull, cut along the inside curve, then heated to 400°F with water, oil, or direct heat.\n(Tom shared that he’s even put horns into the hot mineral pools near Thermopolis overnight and been able to bend them any way he’d like the next day!)\nWyoming Indian High School students learn the art of horn-spoon-making\nMuch like their ancestors have for thousands of years, workshop attendees from Wyoming Indian High School began their horn-spoon-making journey by choosing a horn that spoke to them.\nNext, students applied heat and used hand-picked rocks to wedge their horn into the desired shape. They then drenched both horn and rock in water, assessed the shape that resulted, and continued these steps until the desired shape of both the spoon bowl and curve of the handle was attained.\nOne fat, stubby horn became a spoon with a bear head; a long, straight horn transformed into an Eagle head. Some completed spoons were beaded on the flat part of the handle; others would later be wrapped with a bit of smoked buckskin around the handle, then topped with a beaded geometric Arapaho symbol.\nKeeping traditions alive\nDuring the workshops, Tom provided a selection of homemade scrapers for students to use in smoothing their horns to a mirror finish, as well as for removing material to thin the walls of their horns and make them easier to bend.\nIn the process, one student’s horn formed a crack that didn’t become evident until much scraping had already been done. A teacher from the high school announced that the crack actually made it the best spoon; it’d be the one used to snag the meat from the soup!\nWorkshops like these keep traditional ways of making alive, immersing youth in their culture and connecting them to their ancestors—which is important for understanding their identity.\nSummer 2024 workshops in the works\nTom plans to return to the Field Station this summer to present two more horn spoon workshops, as well as deliver a week-long painting workshop.\nIn addition to Tom’s workshops, summer 2024 is already bright with opportunities to come learn with us!\nBe sure to sign up for email updates (the form is at the bottom of the page) and get the first chance to register for:\n- A blacksmithing series that starts with the basics and ends with making a drift and a hot cut\n- A tong workshop to make tongs; a tool no blacksmith can have too many of!\n- A botanicals workshop, in which you’ll learn to shape plant forms for iron ornaments\nWhat events are coming up next?\nTake a look at our events calendar to find out!", "domain": "design"}

The first syllable of the word, kin, means “gold”. the second, ran, refers to cloth that was attached to the hem of a Buddhist cloak to strengthen it. Kinran has a ground wave of twill and weft patterns woven with either gold thread or threadlike strips of gilded paper. Kinran was first made in China (known as Zhijin) during the Song Dynasty. It came to Japan through Sino- Japanese trade at the end of the Fujiwara and Kamakura periods, in form of ceremonial robes for Zen monks. Kinran began to be made in Japan during the Momoyama period.\nBelow are some of the more well know kinran fabrics and patterns:\nThe name of this fabric comes from a Noh play called Futari Shizuka. It is said that Ashikaga Yoshimasa shogun (1436-1490) performed this particular play wearing a costume made of Futari Shizuka Kinran fabric. Late Sung period – early Ming period.\nDaito kinran has a design of auspicious clouds. Daito kinran is popularly believed to be the fabric used in the surplice of Daito Kokushi, the founder of Daitokuji (temple) in Kyoto, Sung period\nOsaka kinran is named after the shifuku used with the Osaka Marutsubo chaire, from the Ming period.\nWakuda kinran has a design of waterfowl in a lotus pond. Named for the owner of the fabric, from the Ming dynasty.\nShippo Setsugeka Kinran is a design of interlocking rings, with snowflakes, moon and flowers, favored by the Urasenke14th Generation Grand Tea Master Tantansai.\nHariya Kinran was named after the shifuku used with the Hariya Katatsuki chaire owned by Hariya Soshum. Also called fish scale pattern.\nItoya is a design of jeweled wheels on a basket weave background. It is often woven as a futusu, or double weave fabric where the opposite colors appear on the reverse side. Where blue appears on one side of the cloth, yellow shows on the other and between them a pocket is created. Futsu weave is named for “breeze funnel” and derives from the empty space between the two faces of the fabric. If this were woven with gold thread it is “Itoya futsu kinran.” The fabric name comes from the cloth owned by Itoya Ryotei, who lived in Kyoto in the 16th century. This fabric was made into a shifuku for the chaire named “Sogo nasu.” This fabric was first made in China, probably, Ming dinasty around 1573-1619.\nThe previous five fabrics are variations of a cute rabbit standing on its hind legs looking back at some blossoming trees. The last one is named Suminokura kinran for the wealthy Kyoto merchant Suminokura Ryoi, who was particularly fond of that kind of design, the difference is that the pattern is bigger than Hanausagi Kinran.\nThere are many other famously named kinran fabrics, but you can begin to recognize these fabrics in your study when the guests ask about shifuku kereji.\n*Fabric photos courtesy of Kitamura Tokusai Fukusaten Co., Ltd., Kyoto, Japan.via the now closed website Tea Hyakka..", "domain": "design"}

However, top commercial landscape service companies understand the value in assisting their customers and providing top quality installation and maintenance services.\nCommercial landscapers need to be aware at the start of the project as to the budget. This is not only for the installation of the plants and sod but also for the ongoing maintenance budget as well. With this information, the horticulturists and designers on the project can select trees, sod type, and plants for the property that are going to provide the desired aesthetics as well as meet requirements for year-round care.\nDepending on the plants selected and the particular growing season, maintenance schedules will vary. This is also dependent on the weather and seasonal growth patterns in a given geographic area.\nTo help to decrease the short and long-term commercial landscaping costs, look to native plants and grasses and hardy perennials. This will limit the amount of maintenance required throughout the year as well as the costs of annual flowering plants for gardens.\nFertilization and Irrigation\nWhile initially, irrigation is a cost, it will help in promoting healthy growth throughout the growing season. With minimal moisture requirements met for plants and grass, there is less stress and less plant and grass loss, even in the driest of summers.\nFertilization is also a critical consideration. By choosing the correct application of fertilizer and mulch, commercial landscaping costs can be kept low without any unnecessary costs. Look for companies that are focused on best management practices for fertilization as well as pest and weed control as this not only promotes healthy gardens but also helps the environment as well.", "domain": "design"}

The 5 houses share one common really long swimming pool, which is divided in 5 , giving them each their privacy. Actually the interesting element of this project is that each house feels as if it's the only one in the plot. Meaning that they have been designed in a way that each one’s privacy is on the maximum level, almost not being able to feel the existence of the rest. Every swimming pool has a rock garden on its connecting side with the rest of the pool, making the limit disappear. The entrance to the pool is created by a beach-like feeling, making it smooth and adding some coziness to the yard.This particular house is for a family of 4, has 3 double bed bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms. They also have a beach volleyball court right beside their house.\nYeorgia Aslanidou, https://www.yeoryiaaslanidou.com/", "domain": "design"}

Without a deadline for finishing the Kaffebar we were able to hang out in there, considering how the space would be used and thinking about how we could make it authentically ours. We walked through the building (15,000 square feet!) thinking about where you would park, how you would enter, how you would shop, what you’d want to shop for and how our tavern would accomplish our goal of being a gathering space while remaining simple, cozy and welcoming.\nI think we’ve got it now. But I’m sure it will still evolve along the way.\nThe QUESTION everyone is asking now is when will the coffee shop open? Well, we haven’t set a date. That’s on purpose. We want it to be ready and it’s 2020 so who knows what detours are yet to be revealed. I can tell you that mid-July looks promising. If you’ve driven by lately you’ve seen that our parking lot is getting a much needed refurbishment. We’re creating a purposeful traffic flow, convenient parking spaces and green areas with sidewalks. When this is done I think we’ll be ready to swing wide our doors for you. We can’t wait.

That, and the fact that we have noted Hughes & Kettner user Tommy Thayer interviewed in this issue, seemed like good reasons to take a look at one of its best-sellers in its anniversary form. The amp we chose was the Tubemeister 18 Anniversary head and the man we chose to review it? The one and only Tom Quayle.\nTo celebrate its 30th year of operation Hughes & Kettner has released an anniversary edition of its Tubemeister range of amplifiers. The essential design remains the same but the EL84 output tubes have been replaced with NOS (new old stock) Soviet, military grade EL84’s that are older than the company itself. There’s a lot of snake oil and mystique surrounding NOS tubes but there is no doubt that they were built to last for applications in military and aviation industries where reliability is paramount and to a level of quality not necessarily reached by modern manufacturers. H&K claims that this translates into higher clean headroom, more punch for overdriven tones and a more output than the standard EL84 variants. We were keen to put this to the test with Tubemeister 18 head we were sent for review.\nThe Tubemeister 18 is a small footprint, two-channel lunchbox style head that is designed for maximum tone and versatility in an easily transportable package. The unit is housed in a black metal chassis with a glass-effect front exposing the internal circuitry and tubes, resulting in a cool and modern looking amp. On display are a pair on 12ax7 preamp tubes and the aforementioned NOS EL84 power tubes, offering up to 18 Watts of output via the 16 and 8 Ohm speaker outs, with a built in power attenuator offering operation at 5, 1 and even silent operation. While operating silently, the amp can be used for recording with no speaker attached thanks to the included ‘Redbox’ speaker emulated DI, complete with a high quality XLR output for professional connectivity in the studio. The ‘Redbox’ has been an industry standard for years now and places the DI after the power amp but before the attenuation, giving the most authentic tone and feel for recording. A serial effects loop is also included along with H&K’s ‘tube safety control’ for automatic tube biasing, better longevity and testing functions for the power tubes.\nThe front panel of the TM18 is laid out very logically with a shared three-band EQ, master and gain controls for both channels and lead boost and channel select push switches. The controls are small but solid feeling and easily accessible with the lead boost and channel select functions controllable via any two-way footswitch (not included with the amp). Although the channels share the same three-band Bass, Mid and Treble controls H&K has really thought about this often limiting design feature by re-voicing the EQ filtering circuit for each channel, giving the optimum tone shaping for clean and driven sounds.\nThe TM18 is a very well-constructed and light weight head with an included soft carry case that will make transporting the unit a dream for those used to large, unwieldy amps. It’s also a good looking little head with a quick flick of the power switch producing a lovely blue glow permeating the front panel for an awesome look on stage or in the studio. The metal chassis protects the tubes well and H&K has included solid metal handles on either side that further strengthen the design and make stowing the amp in its gig bag easy and swift.\nPlugged into our studio 4x12 the sound from the TM18 is surprisingly huge considering the amp's diminutive form. The clean channel has plenty of headroom and chime and can be pushed into a satisfyingly squishy crunch tone when the gain and master are pushed to their upper settings. At lower volume settings the sound remains tight and focussed with a harder feel that is great for clean single note lines and arpeggiated chords, especially when combined with some effects in the loop. The three band EQ offers a very musical range of tone shaping options even at the most extreme settings making it pretty hard to find a bad tone on either channel. Switching to the drive channel gives a range of tones from light crunch with the gain and master set low to huge amounts of modern scooped gain with the lead boost engaged.\nWith the attenuation set to 5W or 1W it becomes easy to achieve compressed Rock and lead tones with plenty of lovely power tube saturation at a sensible volume. Switching to 18W mode allows for tight rhythm tones that have as much pre-amp gain as you like but remain firm and responsive for palm muted power chords or down tuned madness. Even though 18W sounds like a low output, this is a loud amp at full tilt and will happily drive anything from a small 1x12 to a huge 4x12 set-up if required.\nIt’s hard to state exactly what the NOS EL84s are doing to the tone here without a direct comparison to the original but what we can say without a doubt is that they sound great and should provide you with the most reliable power tubes out there.\nFor a small, low wattage head the TM18 was already a big success for Hughes & Kettner, with a 36w version also available for those looking for more power. The addition of NOS EL84’s may or may not make a big difference to the sound of the amp depending on your perception of tone and what you prefer, but they will certainly give you extra longevity and should last for the lifetime of the amp. The price difference between the original and the anniversary model is not bank breaking by any means so we suggest trying both out if you can and seeing which one works for you - the bottom line is that the TM18 is a superbly built and sounding small amp that offers two channels of great tone coupled with silent recording in a brilliantly portable design.", "domain": "design"}

Since one of the reasons for buying an e-reader was to read when I’m away from home, I felt like I needed a good and protective cover for it.\nI’ve seen the cases from Klevercase around on instagram and youtube and decided to check them out. The cases are absolutely beautiful and my decision to buy one was not difficult. The case costs around €28. There are cheaper cases out on the internet, but for a handmade case with these amazing designs it’s a good price and you don’t find those a lot online.\nThe designs are the main reason I bought this case. There is a big collection of different sorts of designs to choose from. Every design looks like a real book, which makes them so great. You can choose from classic book cover designs, custom book cases and Harry Potter themed cases. I bought the Book of Spells -Gryffindor themed case. It’s a red case that resembles a book of spells. The inside is decorated with scribbles from Hogwarts students and there is a library list of people who borrowed the book. I absolutely love it. Click here for my Klevercase.\nHaving this case for a couple of months now, I’m ecstatic about the state of the cover. There is no wear and tear happening, just a little mark in the inside were it has rubbed a bit against one of the inside holders one time. Also, the edges might wear a little over time, which I haven’t experienced yet. Overall, I’m surprised. The quality is high and it does what it promises – protecting my e-reader.\nYou can choose the kind of case that fits your e-reader. The site gives clear instructions on the type of case (size and attachment methode) you need for your e-reader. You can get a case with elastics to hold your e-reader, or a sticky patch that holds your e-reader in place. I went for the elastic, as that was recommended for my Kindle Paperwhite. The elastics work great and have been holding my e-reader in place. There has been no wear and tear in the holders, imagining that the elastics might stretch out after some time. The stitching is also done very well and it all feels sturdy.\nI will definitely buy one of their cases again when this one is worn out. It’s a real eye-catcher for your e-reader.", "domain": "design"}

We want users to love the Glaass experience whereby our products integrally lead project teams to success. When we began designing Glaass some 18 months ago, we stepped back and asked ourselves why? What has driven us to create software systems? We came up with two simple answers:\nProducts, services and/or systems don’t exist to address the problems and inefficiencies encountered within the construction industry, and;\nThe products, services and/or systems that do exist within the industry are ineffective, unaccountable, immobile, disconnected and we are completely and utterly dissatisfied with them!\nFinding the problem is the easy part, envisaging and designing a solution is undoubtedly tougher. Building a cross platform, multi-tier, industry specific software suite that is interconnected and easy to use isn’t as simple as you might think. As Tony Fadell (Nest Labs CEO) said, “the key to design is noticing” which is fortunately second nature to most self-confessed perfectionists like me!\nTherefore, we have two design criteria’s:\nTo create exceptional products that haven’t previously existed, and;\nTo create products that exponentially improve upon what currently exists\nOur design process always begins with analysing the current systems used within the industry. Regardless of how impractical and inefficient these systems may be, it’s imperative to understand what characteristics users are drawn to. Next, we decipher every flaw and inability within the application; often a cumbersome task. We strip each feature back to remove anything that is unnecessary, identify areas that can be made leaner and reduce time between functions.\nBuilding products that haven’t existed is substantially more difficult. An in depth user experience is essential to ensure that what is being designed is practical and more so functional to the end user. There are features in Glaass that have undergone months of deliberation because we simply aren’t satisfied with anything less than perfection. We aren’t motivated by products that are mediocre, or even good. We work to make every feature, no matter how insignificant, great. This is why we only release products that truly enrich and empower teams to succeed.\nWe aren’t motivated by products that are mediocre, or even good. We work to make every feature, no matter how insignificant, great.\nWe build our prototypes through a series staggered releases, which typically includes anywhere from eight to twelve new features. Everything we’ve learnt, studied and devised is made into a working prototype. The next step is the most confronting part of design, critiquing our own work. We don’t always get it right the first time, but we continue iterating our design until we do.\nNot satisfied with our own evaluation, we employ a diverse range of people from within and outside the industry to experiment with our product. We ask them to perform a function, without explaining how. We judge the effectiveness of our product based on the time taken to perform the function and the number of incorrect actions made to get there. Our goal is to create software that requires no training to use, and analysing how these people use our product without guidance provides the most honest feedback.\nWe love design at Glaass, it’s an integral component to everything we do, and the cornerstone to delivering a unique user experience. We are currently working hard on our sixth release, adding and optimising our feature set to bring you, the future of construction.", "domain": "design"}

More graphic design than substance? We can help! IX Brand SEO Services Company is a search engine optimization and online reputation management consulting company based in Sugar Land, TX, on the outskirts of Houston. We help small businesses get better Google rankings, develop great online customer reviews, and drive more customer traffic through the Web. Call 281-343-3284 for more information or use the Contact form to send an email.\nI’ve talked with several potential clients this week about creating a blog and about website design in general, and I’m hearing a common misconception about homepage design. Many people see the homepage as something like a poster, which is on display on the Web. The poster doesn’t have much text because people aren’t inclined to read much text. A poster also relies on lots of images to make a visual impact with the viewer. A poster doesn’t have to be discovered by a search engine though, and a poster doesn’t need to appear high in search engine rankings. Your website homepage design, looking like a poster, won’t be search engine optimized!\nMy example of a poster is an announcement of the SPOT Trot this weekend, benefiting homeless pets in Wharton County through the Stray Pet Outreach Team (SPOT). This is a very worthy cause well worth supporting!\nThis is an effective poster, but it’s also an example of a bad website design. With very little text, the poster doesn’t give the search engines much to work with. If the search engines don’t have much to use in evaluating your website, it’s not likely that your website will do well in search engine results. If you don’t do well in search results, it’s not likely that your website will attract many visitors to admire your graphics and images or read your text.\nI see so many websites that are designed to match a marketing poster or print media theme and these sites are frequently the ones that perform most poorly in search results. In other words, some of the best looking websites will perform poorly because of poor SEO, and very few Internet visitors will have the opportunity to admire the great graphic designs on those sites.\nSome other business owners will tell me that they want to have a great looking homepage with very little text and lots of images and then put the text on the other pages of the website. I have to tell these folks that they can’t require Google to direct Internet visitors to the homepage. Google and the other search engines will send Internet searchers to the most relevant pages on the Web, even if those pages are not the homepage. If your homepage is bare of text and your other website pages are full of keyword rich text, then very few people will ever see your homepage.\nSo when you’re working with your web developer to design your homepage and your website, focus a little less on the graphics and a little more on the keyword rich text and your website will look great and do well in search results too. If you have a question about search engine optimization (SEO) related to your website, please give me a call at 281-343-3284 or send me an email using the contact form.\nWhat’s your idea of a great homepage design?", "domain": "design"}

The murals provide a permanent creative medium in which participants express themselves individually and as a group. This program is funded in part by the City of Carlsbad’s Cultural Arts Office, and it offers a unique and unifying extension of dialogue that unveils participants’ visions through artwork.\nThe participants created four murals. They previously designed the sketches themselves, then professional artists translated the sketches onto full canvases. Participants painted their murals with the instruction of the same artists, beautifully filling in their careful designs with vibrant colors.\nDesigns varied greatly, though they were all influenced by undertones of inclusivity and peace. Alex, an American XL, was inspired by “the border orientation. In our trip to the border, I thought a lot about physical and emotional walls between people.” Alex’s mural features a wall inscribed with various negative words, including “injustice” and “violence”, shattered by a dove-shaped hole revealing sunset. Another mural displayed a pair of olive trees growing toward one another, meeting, and taking the shape of a peace sign, surrounded by vivid red tones and free-flying birds. The third mural showcased the world as the iris of a tearstruck eye, the eyebrow filled with symbols of diversity, religion, and peace. Below the eye a lyric of the Hands of Peace song drifted, reading, “Together we can fill the world with hope”. The fourth mural depicted a figure, shackled to the ground by negative terms, including “bigotry” and “hatred”, striving to reach towards a rainbow of “compassion”, “freedom”, and “peace”. Lour, a Palestinian citizen of Israel XL, who worked on the last mural said that “creating artwork and working on it together as a group made me realize that lines are not important, neither in the painting nor in the conflict”.\nParticipants carefully add detail and apply the finishing touches to their beautiful mural, a pair of trees growing towards one another and forming a peace sign, rather than meeting and resorting to conflict over mutual space.\nParticipants detail the dove-shaped opening in a wall of hatred, revealing a gorgeous peaceful sunset.\nParticipants create the image of a shadowed, shackled figure reaching to the heavens via rainbow. “The fact we as global citizens get the opportunity to express ourselves through all the mediums Hands of Peace provides is beautiful,” said Chloe, an American Hand.\nJake Arft-Guatelli was a Hand in 2017 and an XL in 2018, both times in San Diego.

With the evolution of interior design, these desks now play a crucial role in creating a stimulating and inspiring space for the younger generation. The use of bright and vibrant colors in the design of these desks can have a significant impact on children's well-being and creativity.\nMaking Learning Fun with Colorful Desks\nChildren's desks play a crucial role in creating a stimulating learning environment. By incorporating vibrant colors and playful designs, these desks can transform a dull study area into an engaging space that ignites a child's imagination. The use of colorful desks not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of the room but also promotes a positive and enjoyable learning experience.\nOne of the key benefits of colorful desks is their ability to make learning fun. Children are naturally drawn to bright colors, and incorporating these hues into their study area can motivate them to spend more time engaged in educational activities. By associating learning with excitement and playfulness, colorful desks can help foster a lifelong love for learning in children.\nBeyond Just Colors: Multi-functional Desks for Kids\nColorful desks for kids go beyond just aesthetics. They are designed to serve multiple functions to meet the diverse needs of children. These desks often come with additional features such as built-in storage compartments, ergonomic designs, adjustable heights, and interactive elements.\nBy providing various functionalities, multi-functional desks ensure that children have a dedicated space to work on their assignments, store their books and supplies, and engage in creative activities. This not only promotes organization and productivity but also encourages independent learning and responsibility.\nColor Themes That Spark Creativity\nThe choice of color themes for kids' desks can have a profound impact on their creativity and imagination. Different colors evoke different emotions and stimulate specific areas of the brain. For example, vibrant shades of yellow and orange are known to enhance creativity and inspire innovative thinking. On the other hand, calming hues of blue and green promote focus and concentration.\nBy strategically incorporating different color themes into the design of desks, parents and educators can create an environment that sparks creativity and encourages children to explore their imagination. Whether it's a desk with a rainbow color scheme or one inspired by their favorite superheroes, the right color theme can enhance a child's learning experience.\nCreating a Focused Study Area with Colorful Desks\nColorful desks not only add vibrancy to a child's room but also help create a focused study area. The presence of bold and bright colors in the immediate surroundings can enhance cognitive processes and improve concentration levels.\nAdditionally, colorful desks can be paired with complementary accessories such as playful quilts, inspiring wall art, and comfortable seating options to create a visually appealing and distraction-free environment. This dedicated study area acts as a sanctuary where children can concentrate on their tasks, free from external disturbances.\nTransforming Children's Rooms with Vibrant Furniture\nColorful desks are not the only furniture pieces that can bring a room to life. By incorporating vibrant furniture items such as chairs, bookshelves, and storage units, parents can create a cohesive and stimulating environment for their children.\nThe use of vibrant furniture pieces not only adds visual interest but also stimulates the senses and promotes a sense of joy and playfulness. Whether it's a whimsical chair in the shape of an animal or a bookshelf with colorful compartments, each furniture item can contribute to a child's overall well-being and foster a positive attitude towards their personal space.\nThe Psychological Impact of Colors in Children's Development\nColor Psychology: How it Affects Learning\nColors have a profound impact on children's learning and cognitive development. Each color stimulates different areas of the brain and elicits specific emotions. For example, warm colors like red and orange are known to increase energy levels and stimulate creativity, while cool colors such as blue and green promote calmness and focus.\nBy understanding the psychological effects of different colors, parents and educators can strategically incorporate them into the design of children's study areas to enhance learning outcomes. Creating a balanced and harmonious color palette can contribute to a positive and conducive learning environment.\nFostering Creativity with Colorful Furniture\nColorful furniture plays a vital role in stimulating children's creativity and imagination. The use of bold and vibrant colors can spark the imagination, encourage innovative thinking, and inspire artistic expression.\nWhether it's a desk painted in bright shades or a chair with a playful pattern, colorful furniture items can serve as a canvas for self-expression and ignite a child's creative potential. By surrounding children with visually stimulating furniture, parents can foster a sense of curiosity and encourage them to explore their artistic abilities.\nImpact of Colors on Children's Mood and Behavior\nColors have a significant impact on children's mood and behavior. Bright and vibrant colors have been found to enhance positive emotions, increase energy levels, and promote a sense of happiness. On the other hand, muted and calming colors can induce a sense of relaxation and tranquility.\nBy carefully selecting colors for children's furniture and study areas, parents can create an environment that supports their child's emotional well-being. For example, using calming colors in a child's bedroom can promote a peaceful sleep environment, while energetic colors in a playroom can encourage active play and social interaction.", "domain": "design"}

These include white tees and button-down shirts. Black trousers and knee-length skirts. You can also include denim shorts and black jeans in your wardrobe.\nWhite button-down shirt\nOne of the most iconic pieces in a woman’s wardrobe is the white button-down shirt. Not only is it a great statement piece, it can be worn in a variety of ways. It’s also a staple that will never go out of style.\nHowever, not all white button-downs are created equal. While the best may well be the newest, there are plenty that are outdated and ill-fitting. As such, finding the right one can be tricky.\nHere are some of the best. If you’re looking to invest in a timeless piece, look no further than the classic J.Jill white button-down. The cotton blend is a medium weight and perfect for any season. This shirt has a small collar, back seams for waist shaping and is a feminine fit.\nFor a more upscale take on the white shirt, look no further than the Icon Shirt by Ann Mashburn. Made with Italian poplin and slim cut, this shirt is a great way to elevate your look.\nWhile most of us are accustomed to seeing the white button-down in the office, this style can be worn just about anywhere. You can style it as a dress or pair it with jeans and sneakers.\nIf you’re looking to buy a new button-down, consider purchasing a silk or linen-cotton blend. These fabrics have some stretch, but can be a little wrinkly. They’re not as structured as cotton, so they can be a bit pricey.\nWhen it comes to white button-downs, you’ll want to avoid the oversized varieties. A good hemline should be about hip-level. Also, try to purchase a gauzy cotton option instead of a synthetic fabric. That said, you’ll still need to iron it.\nThe black pant is a staple of the modern woman’s wardrobe. Whether you’re looking for a casual evening attire, a work-appropriate pair of trousers or a smart yet comfortable option for travel, the black pant is a must have. Thankfully, they aren’t limited to the workplace, as they’re just as at home in the gym as they are at an office meeting.\nThe best part is the number of outfits that you can put together from a single pair of trousers. These pants aren’t limited to the office, either, as you can wear them on a date, for a night on the town or even in the car.\nIn the quest to find the perfect pair of black pants, it’s important to choose wisely. A good rule of thumb is to opt for a pair that aren’t too tight at the waist. This allows you to add a little flare without sacrificing your shape.\nA well made pair of pants is an investment that will pay off in spades. If you’re shopping on a budget, you can opt for one of the many budget friendly brands. One that will be sure to tick all your boxes is Frankie Shop. You can choose from a variety of styles including wide legs, cropped, skinny and more. For the fashion forward among you, you can also check out Express, which has an extensive range of women’s black trousers.\nIf you’re looking for something a little more blinged out, you can opt for the black leather pant. This is not only a staple of Parisian chic, but it’s a must have for anyone who wants to look their best. They can be worn with a shirt and tie for a smart, chic outfit or with sneakers for a laid back, cool vibe.\nWhen shopping for a new white T-shirt, there are a few things to keep in mind. First, it should be breathable. Cotton is a great choice, as it is easily washable and biodegradable. Also, the material should not cause skin allergies.\nAside from that, it should be lightweight. This is especially important if you plan to wear the tee at the gym or workout.\nIn addition, the material should be thick enough to provide structure and comfort. Ideally, the material should also be thin enough to let the wearer layer it. An important skill you must have is to know how to measure bust so that you can buy well-fitting bras, especially since these can be easily noticeable underneath a white tee.\nAnother consideration is the cut. White tees come in a variety of cuts and styles, so it is important to find a style that suits your body. For example, you may prefer a looser fit or a flattering high-neck.\nIf you are looking for a casual piece, a classic Hanes tee is a good choice. It is easy to throw on and has a timeless look.\nYou can also choose a thinner cotton-jersey T-shirt. These can be found at any price point.\nIf you are looking for something that is a bit more interesting, consider adding a scarf to the mix. This can be tied around the neck for a French-inspired look or added to the tee for a fun pattern or texture.\nLastly, it’s important to take care of the tee after you buy it. Over time, grime and perspiration will build up, and you’ll want to be able to wash it.\nIf you are concerned about pit stains, you can try a stain remover, such as a half-cup of baking soda, hydrogen peroxide, or water. However, if you want to avoid this, washing the shirt after every use should be enough.\nDenim shorts are a summer staple and can be worn with everything. They are also a great alternative to jeans. They are versatile and look great with sandals and wedges.\nDenim shorts come in various colours and washes. They are also available in different shapes and lengths. Some are high-waisted and some are wide-leg. If you are looking for a comfortable pair of denim shorts, make sure they aren’t too tight.\nFor a summery, retro look, opt for a distressed pair of mid-rise shorts. This is a look that will never go out of style. To complete the look, pair it with a ruffled, puffy peasant blouse.\nHigh-waisted denim shorts are perfect for women with a petite waist. Their length can help elongate your legs. You can dress them up with a black blazer and a pair of black heels, or dress them down with a graphic tee and chunky booties.\nThese shorts can also be used as a cover-up if you are taking a bath in the pool. Just be careful not to get too wet.\nA ruffled, peasant blouse pairs well with distressed denim shorts. Another way to achieve this look is with a corset top.\nThe ideal shorts are lightweight, but durable enough to be washed. Try to find a pair that doesn’t bleed.\nDenim shorts are also a great wardrobe staple during the winter. If you aren’t sure what type to purchase, stick with neutral colours. This allows you to easily mix and match your clothing.\nRegardless of what you choose, make sure you don’t have too many pairs in your closet. Having too many shorts can be uncomfortable. Choose a pair that is dark enough to wear during the day and light enough to wear at night.\nKnee-length skirts are an excellent wardrobe staple for any woman. These skirts come in many different styles, and can be easily dressed up or down. They can also be paired with a variety of tops, blazers, and accessories. Whether you are wearing a knee-length skirt to work or out to dinner, you can be sure to look your best.\nKnee-length skirts can be worn in any season. For colder weather, you can pair the skirt with tights or leg warmers. If it is warmer, you can wear a dress or t-shirt. However, when the temperatures drop, you can switch to a slouchy cardigan or a wool coat.\nWhen shopping for knee-length skirts, you need to make sure you find a style that is flattering to your body type. It’s best to avoid any styles that are too tight at the waist. This will give you a more polished look. You can opt for a high-waist to get a more feminine look. A high-waist looks better with a fitted shirt tucked in.\nMoreover, you can choose from various colors and patterns. These skirts are easy to style and will pair well with a wide variety of footwear.\nFor a fun and unique look, you can try a ruffle peplum skirt. This skirt is made from stretchy fabric and features a ruffle along the hem. Try this skirt with a graphic tee for a cool look.\nAnother popular style is a mini skirt. Miniskirts were introduced in the 60s and hit the scene in swinging London. Since then, designers like Andre Courreges and Mary Quant have reimagined the miniskirt.\nPencil skirts are a favorite for office wear. Pencil skirts are designed to sit close to the body, so they flatter all the right places. The flattering fit makes them the perfect choice for any occasion.", "domain": "design"}

This fact is reflected in the design. There is a lot of variety in the external decoration of Victorian suburban homes. This was a way for the middle classes to set themselves apart as a class and to show their wealth and status. All sorts of styles were used, from Gothic to Queen Anne, to classical and Arts and Crafts, often mixed together.\nThe home was also a place where the family could communicate their social status by the order of their domestic arrangements and their distance from the working class, including their servants. This had a high impact on the design of the middle class Victorian house, as there had to be separate entrances for staff and even different stairwells as servants were placed away from the family. Even the outside of the house was used to communicate the status of the family, for example the use of bay windows in Victorian middle class terraced housing distinguishes it from the flat fronts of working class terraces. This fashion was possible because of the abolition of the window tax in 1851 and the invention of sheet glass.\nFor the middle class, morality and religion were very important and the home was seen as a place for moral refuge and the teaching of Christian values. Within the home this is reflected in the strict segregation of the sexes, boys from girls. The general move to a segregated society where women did not work also made the home very important to women; it was their world.\nPrivacy was another middleclass concern. If a house could not be separated from its neighbours and the road then blinds, shutters or lace curtains were used to distance the outside world. A frequent compromise, when a detached house was not possible, was a pair of semi-detached houses built to look like one house like the villas on Queensbridge Road. Towards the end of the Victorian period rooms were less closed off and became lighter and more cheerful as the Victorians became aware of the benefits of fresh air and sunshine.\nThere are few examples of working class housing left in Hackney as most was replaced by council housing and the ones that do exist represent the upper end of the range. Beck Road is a very attractive working class Victorian terrace. In the latter part of the Victorian era, with the emergence of trams and the workingman’s train the move to the suburbs also became possible for the regularly employed better off working class. Working class suburban homes were designed with room for a lodger as the extra income was vital for a working class family. The interiors would of course have had no servants quarters and much less of the clutter of a middle class home as the families would have much fewer possessions.\nPoorer families would have lived in large, old houses occupied by a number of families, or back to back houses. Frequently housing for the poorest in society was shoddily built on bad foundations. Six thousand people in Hackney Wick in 1879 were reported to be housed in slums on top of a rubbish pit.\nThe issue of slums became of great importance to the Victorians. This was the era of the social reformers who felt they had a duty to help the poor. For many of the religious middle classes the overcrowded conditions of the poor, where people of all ages and sexes shared together, were immoral also. There were other more cynical reasons for reform too. People were fearful of a working class revolution and were worried about the threat to people’s health caused by poor sanitation and water supplies. Ill health amongst the working classes had an effect on national productivity and pushed up poor law costs as family breadwinners died. Plus there was the threat to the health of everyone caused by epidemics such as cholera and typhus.\nThe emergence of charities and trusts who sought to provide housing for the poor, such as the Peabody Trust in 1862 and the Guinness Trust in 1890, failed to meet the needs of the most desperate in society. The homes they built were sometimes quite radical in design, for example with toilets and a constant water supply and often in blocks of flats. The quality of their house building put it out of the reach financially of all but the upper working classes.\nVarious acts of parliament outlined government recommendations regarding building and density but without a house building programme they were meaningless. The medical officer for Hackney, responding to the 1866 Sanitary Act, claimed that if he were to carry out the overcrowding clauses he would force 10,000 people out on the street.\nThe situation was worse in Hackney as building costs rose very fast in the last twenty years of the century whereas they fell nationally. Lack of building led to higher rents and over crowding. Rents in Hackney between 1894-1901 rose by a third, four times the rate for housing in London overall. Ironically, London suburban rents were around half of those in central London but the poorest sections of society who did not have regular incomes were forced to live where the work was. Shoreditch was a particularly overcrowded area, its population quadrupled in the first half of the century. It had traditionally been an industrious area, situated as it is just outside the city, but the building of the Regents canal allowed the transport of goods and materials so made the area even more attractive to businesses and their workers.\nFor a detailed look at the social make up of Hackney in Victorian times have a look at Charles Booth's poverty maps by clicking here.

He would play the game and when his screen time was over switch to his desk to draw all of the characters and the levels. As an engineering dad seeing his brain begin to piece together the complexities of playing a game like that, I naturally began itching to find a great gift that could introduce him to programming.\nWe had tried a few things previously; like those robots you can program to move with simple arrow buttons to denote going forward or turning. They were neat, but didn’t really capture his attention. A bit of the same with scratch and scratch-like visual programming tools and games; He could understand the basics, but there wasn’t enough payoff to them that held his attention.\nLooking at what else might be out there to fill the “engineering for kids” void, it seemed as if I had to concede that there really wasn’t a great product for such an early age.\nDeciding to pivot on engineering a tiny bit, I purchased Bloxels, an educational video game building app. I recall being quite unsure about it as there were a lot of mixed reviews on Amazon. It was an interesting product though. Not only were you purchasing a voucher to have an account and own the app, it also came with a physical pixel art board that lets kids design characters and levels by placing colored cubes into a grid; novel, but a neat way to turn pixel art into a tangible event.\nSo on Christmas morning, my little one opened it up and with a clearly excited-confused look of, “Wow, amazing… what is it?!?!” our journey into Bloxels began.\nWhat Bloxels is and what it isn’t\nBefore I go on, I just want to note that one of the great things about Bloxels is that what it is now is much more evolved from what it was three years ago. So from here on out I’ll be referring to the latest capabilities rather than just the old.\nBloxels is not really a programming game. At least not in a clear one-to-one manner. You won’t find an exposed programming language with if statements and loops and variables to learn. Instead, Bloxels focuses more on the mechanics of design, both in form and function. And so in that sense, Bloxels is absolutely an engineering game.\nTeaching the form of design\nBloxels is a great first drawing app for kids. I could even imagine that, had I been a Bloxels user earlier, I would have plopped my three or four year old in front of the character designer to play around with building pixel art. You can build pixel-based sprites with an easy to use interface and even animate them. It’s an incredible introduction to digital art that balances ease of use and complexity of capability with masterful UX design.\nThere are essentially four modes of design within Bloxels:\n- The character builder (for building characters with all their moving states)\n- The art builder (for building environmental level tiles and items)\n- A background builder (for creating backgrounds for your levels to sit on top of)\n- And the game builder itself (for designing and bringing all your assets together into a game)\nThe first three design modes mentioned above have a very similar drawing app interface; it’s the place you can really exercise those artistic pixel-art skills. The game builder though, is quite another beast.\nTeaching the function of design\nUpon creating a new game, you’re given a choice:\nTop-Down; think original Mario Bros. vs original The Legend of Zelda. Once you make a choice the game builder sets you into your level, which is a large gridded-out canvas where you can place blocks. Different block types make up the core functionality of building games; from terrain, hazard, collectible, story block, enemy, action block, power-up and liquid, you have everything you need to design out the function of the game. The thing I love most about this is that the types of blocks are color-coded and can be placed down completely from a functional perspective first, and then later skinned with your various block-art designs. This presents a huge engineering skill packed into a very simple feature: planning out your functional design and mechanics separate from focusing on your artistic vision.\nEach block type also has configuration settings, this is where we start to see some programming concepts in the game. Though limited to the features of Bloxels, there are enough if/then scenarios that can be built and toggled to do a decent job of building the mental foundations of connecting various decision trees to form a functional game.\nYou can set up:\n- Doors and keys\n- Various difficulties and types of enemies\n- Power-ups for your character to change their abilities mid-game\n- Warp points to move throughout levels and even across separate game maps\n- And much more; Bloxels continues to add features regularly to keep games engaging\nSet up for success and encouraging failure\nThe last thing I’ll focus on is how the game comes with a ton of asset packs and pre-made examples for kids to get started from. This creates a smooth on-ramp of usability and learning that is often lacking in software. At the same time, the\ntest button is almost always on screen, encouraging learning to experiment and iterate with ideas with a near real-time feedback loop.\nThey doubled down on the engineering\nI’m not going to belabor convincing you that this is a good app for kids; it really is.\nInstead, let’s take a look at what really clinches Bloxels for me personally as something I want to support. Remember when I mentioned the bad Amazon reviews? Well it turns out that Bloxels original owners didn’t do a great job at marketing the product and began failing as a company. Therefore they went through a period where they were offloading product with pretty much zero support, causing folks with issues to run screaming to the review section to say what a scam it was.\nI’m not sure I have the story pieced together 100% correct, but it seems like one of the lead engineers was able to rescue the brand and the app from the company, take it over and turn the ship around by pouring time into making it a better, more reliable product. Years later, Bloxles seems to be quite healthy, and their continuous investment into features over many years has made it the incredible app it is today.\nUnder the hood, play.bloxels.com is a pretty elegant looking SPA. All of the various features, capabilities and textures come in over API endpoints as structured JSON data, which is then rendered client-side. Given that once you’re editing games nearly everything you see is user-generated or user-configured, it’s quite a smart tactic to save and load sets of configurations back and forth, with efficiencies going into the size and structures of those datasets. Just open up\ndevtools as you poke around and you’ll be impressed with the interworkings of fetch calls and responses.\nWe’ve been a Bloxels household for over three years now and there are few apps or games that I can recall having such a long-term reverence for. I thought I was just getting something fun for my son to express his creativity and was surprised to find out it absolutely was that and a ton more. Bloxels strikes a balance of fun and education in a way that is quite rare. It promotes learning to iterate on design and take into consideration the player and advanced game mechanics and shows how bringing function and aesthetic design together is a powerful combination for creating engaging experiences. It is the best STEAM app I’ve come across for young children to learn how all the aspects of design and engineering play a powerful role in our world.\nOnce again, these thoughts are my own entirely, Bloxels has no understanding that I’m publishing this. They have just proven themselves deserving of kind and reverent words and a solid recommendation from this engineering dad.\nI’ll leave you with one of my son’s first games to try out for yourself: Flopsy’s Adventure", "domain": "design"}

I use it on almost every layout with either letter stickers, paper, embellishments like enamel dots or gold mist splatters.\nQ: What is your must have supply and why?\nA: I love patterned paper. It always reflects the latest trends and colors and is inexpensive too. If I had only my Cameo, patterned paper, and circle embellishments like buttons, brads, flair, sequin and enamel dots I could create for a long time and be a happy girl.\nQ: How did you get on your first design team?\nA: I applied for a challenge/inspiration blog, Paper Issues, back before they became an online retailer. I was so excited when I received that e-mail inviting me to be on their team.\nQ: Any advice for those wanting to design on a team?\nA: If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again! I know that sounds cheesy, but it is so true. If you are trying out for a team where they are looking for 10 designers, they will be looking for a variety of styles in the selection process so they might only need 3 designers with your particular style. If you don’t make it the first time, don’t let that discourage you from trying out for their next call. I also think it is important to be involved in challenges for companies that you love too, it helps them get to know you and your style.\nThank you so much for your amazing designs, Diane. We are blown away by your creativity and attention to detail!\nFor more by Diane…you can check out her blog HERE!", "domain": "design"}

One of the best reasons to have a gable roofline is to help weather and debris roll and fall to the ground, rather than sitting stagnantly. Another benefit of a gabled roof carport is how it looks next to your home. They offer a beautiful aesthetic and compliment any home they are constructed next to. Our gable roof carports can be customized in a style that blends with your home. Choose the color and styling to make the carport an extension of your home's exterior. We can leave them free-standing or attach the carport to your house depending on the features of your home and where the carport is situated.\nAn added benefit to the Gabled roof carport is its versatility. It won't be long until your preparing to host a birthday party or family BBQ under it. They offer exceptional shade coverage and the perfect structure to attach decorations to for the best social events. Have questions about our gable roof carports in Austin? Don't hesitate to contact us today.\nAustin Garage Carports\nUses For Gable Roof Carports\nThe best ways to use your new Austin carport.\nMore than just weather protection\nRecreational Vehicle Storage\nOur clients use our carports for things like RVs, golf carts, and other similar recreational vehicles. Unfortunately, weather and debris can take a toll on these types of vehicles, maybe even faster than your day to day car. While meant to be outside, these items tend to get less use and attention than our daily car or truck. So, a carport offers exceptional protection from weather and sun, prolonging the life of your recreational vehicle. We can customize the dimensions to ensure it will fit easily under the structure, and last for years to come.\nIf you love to do DYI projects then a carport is ideal for you. We often need \"space\" to do projects like these and doing them inside can be a hassle, not to mention messy. A carport will give you plenty of room and protection while you use the space as a small temporary workshop. You won't have to worry about debris falling onto your newly painted cabinets doors or try to stretch yourself into a pretzel inside your home. This is just one more way that a carport will add value to your home and your quality of day to day life.\nThe Texas sun is brutal for kids to play under, and chances are you've seen a few sunburns sneak up on your kids. Now, you can turn your carport into the ultimate outdoor playroom. You'll be thrilled that the mess your kids usually make inside, can now be left outside. Further, they will have the space to spread out and even invite friends over to enjoy. Parents love carports as play areas because the structure is typically close to the home, where parents can easily keep an eye on them. Nothing like a gabled roof carport as the ultimate kids play fort.\nHow Do I Get Started?\nBuilding a custom carport in Austin\nLearn more about building a gabled roof carport with our crew.\nConnect & Quote\nOur process is simple.

Thinking in terms of nature, a sustainable city might be designed that feeds and recycles itself. The city behaves like a living creature, fulfilling its basic needs. It requires raw materials which it transforms for a specific use and then produces waste as part of the process.\nInteracting flows of resources make the daily pulse of the city: equipment, materials, water, energy, heat, organic matter, and as many operating systems, and then there are the non-material resources, like people, skills, transportation, education, health, etc. A circular economy strives to balance the material and energy exchanges between nature and society and within society itself, working towards effectiveness and resilience.\nPeterborough (UK), Winner of the Smart City Expo World Congress World’s Smart City Award 2015, declared at the congress that they want to be UK’s first circular city. For them, to be circular means efficient management of these cyclical resource flows. It is their desire to create the UK’s Environment Capital. This vision is inherently collaborative and requires a bottom-up approach by each of the city’s stakeholder groups. It is also essential to sustain the project in the longer term through a collective effort to shape the enabling environment and transition it towards a new circular model. This requires engagement by key local stakeholders, support of national experts on circular economy and the development of a collective roadmap.\n“This is an exciting evolution in our Smart Cities Programme. Our vision to become the UK’s First Circular City will put Peterborough right at the front of smart city thinking, reinforcing our aspiration to make Peterborough a fantastic place to live and work.” The project is very ambitious. It’s a marathon, not a sprint. It will take time, and you must get started somewhere. “We are going to apply the Circular Economy concept at the city scale whilst creating the business conditions and collaborations to make this transition happen,” said Steve Bowyer, Chief Executive of Opportunity Peterborough.\nRight now, a city-managed website called Brainwave Innovation, is working as an online tool where citizens, startups and academia discuss city challenges and propose solutions. Systems thinking is used for coming up with solutions. One idea found a way to revalue hessian coffee bags that the local Masteroast Coffee Company was discarding and that were ending up in a landfill. Masteroast asked the city for ideas and two entrepreneurs stepped in. “They built their company around the bags and trained local women to sew tablecloths and bags for life from the hessian. The fabric was also used to reduce river erosion and mud accumulation on roads, among other things,” Cecile Faraud commented, and went on to say, “We diverted one stream of waste to one stream of resource.”\nCircular cities are hard to think about right now, but with experience, cities will learn to foster these systems, creating new unexpected business opportunities. A city that controls all its resources is more resilient as well. Living labs focusing on circular economy are creating the foundations for sustainable and resilient smart cities.\nPeterborough on a hot summer day – Photo by Gwydion M Williams / Flickr", "domain": "design"}

This proprietary document methodically creates the design criteria framework for all aspects of the kiosk design; including target manufacturing budget, project schedule, component requirements, installation, and expandability.\nThis definition phase results in the Design Criteria Document that guides project members during the development process. This is a continuously evolving tool that Diginue uses to anticipate all design issues up front, and leverages the design nuances / experience gained on thousands of prior designs.\nCOMPONENT EVALUATION & MODELING\nDiginue then procures required electronic components identified under the Design Criteria Document, bench testing each component with customer-specific software, ensuring full compatibility\nClients review the component specifications and document approval. Next, Diginue begins initial component layout modelling to include in the overall enclosure options.\nINDUSTRIAL DESIGN & RENDERINGS\nFollowing approval of the component set, Diginue develops initial renderings and mechanical drawings to prove correct component placement and jointly create the client’s desired overall equipment aesthetics.\nThis is an iterative and interactive process where e-Pay’s Industrial and Mechanical Engineering team work closely with the customer’s design and project team members.\nMECHANICAL DESIGN & REVIEW\nDiginue advances the design to a complete set of mechanical drawings and computer generated renderings. A subsequent design review of the engineering drawings results in a checklist of changes.\nAs needed, Diginue revises the drawings and generates renderings with optimally arranged and modelled components for customer feedback / approval on concept and mechanical drawings of the kiosk.\nAny modifications are closed to customer guidelines, resulting in a finalized and signed design.\nAGENCY CERTIFICATION / PROTOTYPE BUILD\nPost design review, Diginue does a “dry fit” test – assembling all prototype components into the enclosure. Upon approval; paint, artwork, and final assembly are completed for first article production. An extensive in-house prototype fabrication area enables Diginue to execute custom prototype delivery in just six to eight weeks from design approval. During prototype manufacturing, parallel progress is made on submitting all necessary UL, FCC and agency approval documents. This simultaneous activity enables UL certification to occur at the same time as prototype completion, accelerating time to market by as much as 12 – 16 weeks.\nINSTALLATION & DEPLOYMENT\nFollowing prototype delivery, Diginue has 200,000 square feet of dedicated manufacturing capacity poised to facilitate the steepest of production ramps.\nDiginue’s manufacturing model can accommodate a wide volume spectrum – from very small production runs up to thousands of units per week. Both ends of the volume continuum are treated with equal care and expert attention.\nTurnkey site survey, site preparation and installation services are readily available.", "domain": "design"}

For those who dream of owning a venue and want us to turn that ambition into reality, we will design every inch, from bar layout, interiors and seating to the tiniest of subtle touches.\nOur own Bar Termini in Soho is a Drink Factory creation, and we collaborated with Zetter Townhouse to style their two cocktail lounges.

If you're wondering just how, we're about to tell you! Stay tuned as we overview this game changer of a truck – the 2017 Honda Ridgeline in Cincinnati!\nA Phenomenal Truck Bed\nHonda made a seemingly unchangeable detail of trucks the star feature. Think of it as a \"smart bed\" – \"From off-road toys to 4’ x 8’ sheets of plywood, the bed of the Ridgeline was designed with minimal wheel well housings in order to maximize hauling capabilities.\" Simple enough, right? The actual tailgate itself if smart too, opening multi-way unlike traditional tailgates. You are able to open the truck bed like a door or like a regular tailgate. Honda has also invented a solution to the low-storage problem with the In-Bed Trunk® that allows you to store items securely in the 7.3 cubic feet space located in the bed, and lock it, too. It even comes equipped with a drain plug so you can use it as an ice chest! We could go on about the truck bed's other cool features like the Truck Bed Audio System, but we need to keep moving so let's talk about the interior.\nThe interior of the 2017 Honda Ridgeline has an available 8-inch display, push start button, one-touch power moonroof, Bluetooth connectivity, 4.2'' multi-information display, and a center console that's big enough for a 10-inch tablet, just to name a few. There's seating for up to five adults comfortably, but if you are only seating 2 or 3 people, the seats are 60/40 lift-up rear seats to make room for extra storage. For the couple that is constantly switching who drives, you'll love the memory seat that has driver memory settings for up to two people.\nBeauty and Power\nJust when you think this truck can't get any better, you find out about the power capabilities. The Ridgeline is available with front or all-wheel drive but is powered by a 3.5L 280 horsepower V6 engine. And for all of you truck lovers that like a good towing capacity, the Ridgeline can tow up to 5,000 hefty pounds backed up by the 262 lb-ft of torque.\nExcited yet? We bet you are! This one-of-a-kind Honda truck is available at Honda East and just waiting for you to take it out for a spin.

(Prussian electricity company) in Kassel. Since that time it has been an important protection and monitoring device for insulating liquid filled transformers with conservator and choke coils. It also allows separate monitoring of oil-filled bushings or cable terminal boxes. It is mounted in the cooling cycle of the device to be protected and responds to faults such as gas generation, loss of as well as high flow rates of the insulating liquid.\nFor transformers with hermetical closure by means of a hydro-type compensator (rubber sack) in the conservator, the Buchholz relay can be used also as monitoring device (air cell failure relay) of the hydro-type compensator.\nThe Buchholz relay is suitable for open-air as well as indoor installations.\nThe type diversity of the Buchholz relay is tailored to norms and standards as well as to special customer demands. The type of relay to be used depends on the nominal rating and construction features of the device to be protected. Our range of products permits optimum adaptation to actual requirements.\nElektromotoren und Gerätebau GmbH (EMB GmbH) provides more than 70 years experience in producing Buchholz relays and other protective devices for liquid-cooled and liquid-insulated devices. It ranks today among the most distinguished manufacturers of this type of equipment.\nEMB Buchholz relays are in compliance with EN 50216-2 as well as IEC 60076-22-1 and are known for their easy operation, high reliability and extremely long life. The functionality of the EMB Buchholz relays is given by using all conventional insulating liquids. The functionality in combination with new insulating fluids will be tested in close cooperation with the manufacturers.\nEMB has been certified according to: DIN EN ISO 9001:2015, AEO F, Known Consignor (Airfreight Security) and EAC. Further certifications have been awarded by well-known independent test laboratories such as TÜV Rheinland and TZO.\nThe casing is made of weather-resistant cast aluminium alloy provided with a paint coating. It is supplied either with flanged (Fig. 1/ Number 1) or threaded connection (Fig. 2/ No.2). The different casing designs available are shown in Single-Float Buchholz Relays and Double-Float Buchholz Relays. Others are available on request.\nTo check the switching system for proper function, the casing is provided with sightglasses (Fig. 2/ No. 3). The sightglasses provided with scales permit reading of collected gas volume. The relays can be provided with hinged lids (Fig. 1/ No.4) to protect the sightglasses.\nThe cover is made of weather-resistant cast aluminium alloy provided with a paint coating. The upper section of the cover accommodates the terminal box (Fig. 3/ No. 1). In front of the terminal box are arranged the bleeding valve (Fig. 3/ No. 2) and the test key covered by a cap nut (Fig. 3/ No. 3) as well as a plate (Fig. 3/ No. 4) with instructions for actuating the test key. The terminal box accommodates the earth terminal (Fig. 3/ No. 5) and bushings (Fig. 3/ No. 6) for the terminals provided in the base of the cover. The number of these bushings determines the design of the switching systems in terms of type and quantity of the magnet contact tubes.\nThe terminal box is sealed by an cap (Fig. 3/ No. 7) so that it is safe to touch and protected against pollution. If the cap is opened instructions for installation (Fig. 3/ No. 8) are shown e.g. the graphic symbol and the connection diagram. The cable can be inserted through the cable gland (Fig. 3/ No. 9).\nThe Buchholz relay is used for the protection and monitoring of insulated liquid-filled transformers with expansion tank and earth leakage coils. It is installed in the cooling circuit of the unit to be protected and reacts to faults such as gas formation, loss as well as excessive flow of the insulating liquid with a warning or disconnection signal. This prevents devastating damage to the transformer or even its destruction.\nThe Buchholz relay is installed in the pipe between the tank of the device to be protected (transformer, reactor) and the conservator. During normal operation it is filled completely with insulating liquid.\nDue to buoyancy the float of the single-float relay and both floats of the double-float relay are at their top position.\nThe upper and lower switching systems form a functional unit in the single-float Buchholz relay so that in the event of a fault the transformer is immediately disconnected from the power system.\nIn the following the function of a Buchholz relay is explained using the example of a double-float Buchholz relay. If a fault occurs inside the transformer, the Buchholz relay responds as follows:\nFault:Free gas is available in the insulating liquid.\nResponse: The gas in the liquid moves upwards, accumulates in the Buchholz relay and displaces the insulating liquid level. As the liquid level falls, the upper float moves downwards. The moving float actuates a switch contact (magnet contact tube). An alarm signal is tripped. The lower float is not affected as from a certain gas volume the gas flows through a piping to the conservator.\nFault: Insulating liquid loss due to leakage.\nResponse: As the liquid level falls, the conservator, piping and Buchholz relay are emptied. First, the top float lowers and causes an alarm signal. When now the loss of liquid continues, the lower float sinks and actuates a switch contact so that the transformer is shut down.\nFault: A spontaneous incident generates a pressure wave moving in the direction of the conservator.\nResponse: The liquid flow reaches the damper arranged in the liquid flow. If the flow rate exceeds the operating value of the damper, the latter moves in flow direction. Due to this movement a switch contact is actuated so that the transformer is disconnected. After release of the pressure wave the lower switching system returns to its starting position.\nBuchholz relays manufactured by EMB are equipped with a damper held by a permanent magnet.\nThe technical data listed in table named below are applicable to all Buchholz relays in standard version manufactured by EMB.

If you wish to construct a house in the wilderness, odds are you will utilize nearby parts, for example, wood and plants. In Europe, there is a considerable measure of stone available and conventional constructions have vigorously depended on it. In America, wood and metal have been for the most part utilized.\nWith regards to business buildings notwithstanding, milder material like wood is usually not used, because you need something that will keep going quite a while. So the greater part of our current urban areas is manufactured either with solid, metal, or both. Commonly, steel is utilized just in a controlled manner, regularly as bolster poles, within the solid building. However, there’s an ever-increasing number of constructions that use metal as the principle part, utilizing both harder segments like stainless steel, alongside gentler ones like aluminum for the outside covering. There are a lot of reasons why you would need to run with a metal building and a few worries that you have to remember. Here are a few things you might need to think about the subject.\nThe fundamental advantage of metal is a strength. At the point when contrasted and some other material out there, the metal will last more and be more grounded. A wooden building is modest. However, it is not robust and can be inclined to various issues, for example, steady winds from sea tempests, corruption with age, water penetrations, et cetera. Notwithstanding when contrasted and other solid materials like solid, Steel winds up being more sturdy because while it is solid, it is likewise more adaptable. As a decent illustration, on the off chance that you take a gander at districts which were influenced by typhoons like on account of Katrina, steel buildings were the structures that remained standing.\nThe purpose of this quality is in the parts that make up the structure of metal composites. You can find more resources here at www.allbldg.com. The molecules in particles utilized are substantially nearer together, making a considerably denser structure. They make precious stone structures, which makes them more impervious to warm and more grounded. There are additionally different advantages over various sorts of constructions. Metal is completely impervious to creepy crawlies, they manage warmth and frosty much superior to various buildings, the construction procedure has less waste, and the upkeep is usually lower than with numerous other construction types.\nDespite the fact that wooden buildings are less expensive given the wealth of woodlands, this is gradually changing as our trees wind up plainly tenuous. Also, a wooden building requires a great deal of extra care since wood is so substantially weaker. At last, throughout an existence time, a metal building winds up being more practical. This is valid for large constructions. However an indistinguishable applies for little structures from well. If you are pondering making a capacity working in your terrace, you might be enticed to fabricate it utilizing wooden boards since it appears to be more affordable than building a metal building, yet you need to consider what occurs not far off. Your metal structure will last more, be safer, and require a lower upkeep cost.\nAlways remember that the end goal to construct these buildings, you may likewise discover that they are simpler to deal with. Regularly, pre-assembled structures are sold, and all you have to do is jolt them together. On the off chance that you go the premade course, then it truly is a breeze to manage metal constructions. You additionally have a decision on the sort of metal you will utilize. There are distinctive costs and different qualities. Metal buildings can be discovered wherever from holy places to production lines, shops, stockpiling territories, office buildings, and local foundations. Full high rises are likewise made of this material.\nSince pre-assembled metal structures are ending up noticeably so prevalent, they are likewise significantly more adaptable. You can regularly organize them the way you need, and years not far off you can change their plan. With wood, that would require a ton of work, including conceivably trading a few boards for new ones of the correct size. Furthermore, metal runs well with solid so that you can have a stable, solid floor alongside metal dividers and roof. Indeed, even years not far off, your construction will, in any case, look current and be durable.\nAt that point, there is the whole security contention. Unless you live in the ideal neighborhood, then there is a hazard for burglary. Fire is additionally dependable a potential issue. With a wooden building, you have a higher risk. In any case, steel is stable to the point that it includes a noteworthy layer of security. Your steel building won’t torch unless temperatures turn out to be extraordinarily high, and no hoodlum will be ready to make a gap in the divider to get in, similar to they could with weaker material.\nObviously, this isn’t to imply that there is no support by any means. You ought to take care to apply without rust paint on your steel or utilize an aluminum wrap up.

From the intricate artwork and symbolism of traditional Asian cultures to the vibrant colors and modern sensibilities of contemporary Asia, the cultural impact of the region can be seen in a wide range of slot machine designs. In this article, we’ll explore the ways in which Asia has influenced slot machine design and themes, and how these influences have helped to shape the world of gaming as we know it today.\nOne of the most noticeable ways in which Asia has influenced slot machine design is through the use of traditional Asian motifs and symbols. Many slot machines feature images of iconic Asian symbols such as dragons, lotus flowers, and lucky coins, which are believed to bring good fortune and success in Asian cultures. These symbols are often intricately detailed and beautifully rendered, adding a sense of elegance and sophistication to the games they adorn.\nIn addition to traditional symbols, slot machine designers also often draw inspiration from the vibrant colors and bold graphics of contemporary Asian culture. From the neon-lit streets of Tokyo to the bustling markets of Bangkok, the sights and sounds of modern Asia are a treasure trove of inspiration for designers looking to create visually stunning and engaging slot machines. Brightly colored graphics, animated characters, and dynamic sound effects are often used to capture the energy and excitement of Asian culture and draw players in to the game.\nAnother way in which Asia has influenced slot machine design is through the use of Asian themes and settings. Many slot machines are set in exotic locations such as ancient temples, lush gardens, or bustling cityscapes that evoke the atmosphere of Asia. These settings help to transport players to a different world and immerse them in the sights and sounds of Asian culture, creating a truly immersive gaming experience.\nThe influence of Asia on slot machine design can also be seen in the inclusion of traditional Asian music and sound effects. From the gentle strains of a traditional Chinese flute to the pulsating rhythms of a Japanese drum, the soundtracks of many slot machines are infused with the rich musical traditions of Asia. These evocative soundscapes help to create a sense of ambiance and immersion, transporting players to a different time and place as they spin the reels and chase their fortunes.\nIn addition to aesthetics and themes, Asia has also had a profound influence on the gameplay and mechanics of slot machines. Many Asian-themed slot machines feature unique bonus rounds and special features that are inspired by traditional Asian games and customs. For example, some games may include a special bonus round in which players must match symbols in a traditional Chinese puzzle game, while others may feature a free spins round with enhanced payouts based on traditional Asian lucky numbers.\nOverall, the cultural influence of Asia on slot machine design and themes is undeniable, shaping the way we experience and interact with these popular games. From traditional symbols and motifs to contemporary visuals and soundscapes, the vibrancy and diversity of Asian culture can be seen in every aspect of slot machine design, creating a rich tapestry of gaming experiences that transcends borders and bridges cultures.\n1. **Are Asian-themed slot machines popular among players?**\n– Yes, Asian-themed slot machines are incredibly popular among players around the world. The vibrant aesthetics and engaging themes of these games appeal to a wide range of players, making them a favorite choice among both casual and hardcore gamers.\n2. **Do Asian-themed slot machines have higher payouts than other games?**\n– There is no evidence to suggest that Asian-themed slot machines have higher payouts than other games. Payouts are determined by a combination of factors such as the game’s mechanics, the RTP (return to player) percentage, and luck.\n3. **Are there any cultural considerations to keep in mind when playing Asian-themed slot machines?**\n– It’s important to approach Asian-themed slot machines with respect and cultural sensitivity. While these games are designed to celebrate and showcase the beauty of Asian culture, it’s important to avoid appropriating or misrepresenting cultural symbols and traditions.\n4. **What are some popular Asian-themed slot machines to try?**\n– Some popular Asian-themed slot machines include “88 Fortunes” by SG Digital, “Dancing Drums” by Scientific Games, and “Sakura Fortune” by Quickspin. These games offer a mix of traditional and contemporary Asian motifs, stunning visuals, and engaging gameplay for players to enjoy.", "domain": "design"}

They enable the distribution of optical signals from one input fiber to multiple output fibers, allowing a single signal to be split and distributed to multiple devices. In this article, we will discuss how PLC optical splitters work and their applications in fiber optic networks.\nHow PLC Optical Splitters Work\nPLC optical splitters are based on planar lightwave circuit technology, which uses a silica-based waveguide to split the optical signal. The waveguide is etched onto a thin film, which is then integrated into a chip. The chip contains several waveguides, each of which is designed to split the optical signal into multiple outputs.\nWhen the optical signal enters the splitter, it is split evenly across the output fibers. The splitter can be designed to split the signal into a variety of configurations, such as 1×2, 1×4, 1×8, and 1×16, depending on the number of output fibers required. The optical signal is split without any loss in quality, enabling multiple devices to receive the same signal without degradation.\nApplications of PLC Optical Splitters\nPLC optical splitters are widely used in fiber optic networks, particularly in passive optical networks (PONs). PONs use a single optical fiber to serve multiple subscribers, and PLC splitters are used to distribute the signal to each subscriber. This enables service providers to offer high-speed internet, television, and telephone services to multiple subscribers using a single fiber.\nPLC splitters are also used in data center networks to enable the distribution of optical signals from a single fiber to multiple devices. This allows for efficient use of resources and can simplify the network architecture, reducing the complexity of cabling and improving reliability.\nPLC optical splitters are a key component in modern fiber optic networks, enabling the distribution of optical signals from one input fiber to multiple output fibers. They are based on planar lightwave circuit technology and can be designed to split the signal into a variety of configurations, depending on the number of output fibers required. PLC splitters are widely used in passive optical networks and data center networks, enabling efficient use of resources and simplifying the network architecture. By understanding how PLC optical splitters work and their applications, organizations can take advantage of this important technology to build reliable and high-performance fiber optic networks.", "domain": "design"}

This style of clothing first became popular after a large number of celebrities started wearing vintage styled dresses and other clothing items. Vintage dresses in particular have become increasingly popular with fashion lovers all over the world.\nThe Appeal of A Vintage Dress\nA vintage dress may be appealing for a number of reasons. The wearer may enjoy the fabric or the pattern used on the fabric. However, in most cases, women choose to wear vintage dresses because they flatter their figure. Elegant silhouettes have definitely withstood the test of time and are still wildly popular today. Vintage dresses are:\n- Figure flattering\n- Include delicate fabrics\n- Are easy to wear\nWhat Is Considered Vintage?\nGenerally speaking, a dress that is more than 20 years old is considered a vintage dress. Anything that is older than 100 years is considered antique. Throughout the 20th century, there have been many fashion trends that provide us now with a plethora of choices when shopping for vintage clothing. Trends often reflected economic times and trends in the local culture.

Paint colour matching can be difficult, and many factors determine what the paint colours you chose will look like once painted. Take the following into account:\n- The Dulux Visualizer app is a clever tool that can help you see your rooms in a specific colour. With the app you can see realistic Dulux paint colours appear on your walls. It gives you a choice of colour schemes to go with your chosen paint colours or existing furnishings.\n- Which colours do you like - softer, more pastel colours, or primary colours, perhaps colours that will make a big statement?\n- The relative size of the room. For example, darker colours can make a small room look even smaller.\n- The extent of natural sunlight in the room. Light changes colour considerably. Take into account where and when sunlight will be in the room. Less light can make darker colours look darker, and more light can make lighter colours appear too light. Also remember that colour appears different in natural light vs artificial light.\n- Take the function of the room into account. For example, is it a bedroom, a playroom for small children, a study or a bathroom?\n- Take into account how the room will be or is already decorated. Which other colours are furniture, curtains, carpets, tiles etc? Also take into account other existing or new design elements that you want to bring into the room.\n- Narrow down your options to 3 or 4 colours and get sample paint for each. Sometimes you can get 250ml samples, otherwise 1litre may be the smallest quantity available. Nevertheless, its more economical to be absolutely sure about a colour before investing in a couple of liters of paint.\n- Paint the samples in different places in the room. Make the squares big enough to be able to see them against the rest of the room. Be sure to give your square samples a couple of layers so that the existing wall colour does not show through. Look at the samples at different times during the day to take different light conditions into account.\n- Remember that there are often differences between what a colour looks like as a small colour swatch vs when its painted on a wall. Similarly, wall texture influences how the colour will appear (e.g. is the wall smooth, or more roughly plastered?), as well as the specific paint finish that you choose, e.g. matt, satin, gloss etc.\nAutumn colour pallet\nWe are in autumn, a time of chill in the air, falling leaves and the world getting ready for winter. Be inspired by these autumn colours:", "domain": "design"}

As you enter this peaceful space, your attention is first drawn to the waterfall, which symbolizes the troubled state of humankind. The water cascades down to a pool whose calm surface reflects the sky, higher thoughts and the inspiration we all require to pursue a course of higher education, of thought and maturation which are prerequisites of peace.

There is a variety of styles to choose from, so assess your budget and space and go about preparing for this project.\nSteps to Take\n1. Think about the features you want to include in your enclosure and make a list of them, then browse online for what styles are available and how easy they are to do it yourself. You need to decide if you want an enclosure to simply cover all or part of the pool or a large space that you can make use of around the pool.\nYou can choose an enclosure that includes seating, a roof or sliding doors among other things, and a dehumidifier is recommended to make your enclosure last longer.\n2. Consider your budget. Your pool enclosure could cost anywhere from $500-10,000 depending on the details and features you want to add, so once you know what you can afford, you can determine which elements from your wish list you can include.\n3. Measure the width and length of your swimming pool to have an idea of how big your enclosure will be, and leave space on each side for a buffer area. You will also need to measure the height if you have a slide or a diving board.\n4. When shopping around for kits, get free estimates from a variety of places and find out if a swimming pool enclosure builder is included in the price or if the installation is extra.\nTypes of Enclosures\nDoing your research to determine your budget requires you to have a bit of exposure to different types of enclosures available to you. Here are some of the common ones:\n1. Screen – a screen enclosure is one of your cheapest options, and you can get it with different roofing options, like gable, peak or flat. It covers your pool but doesn’t provide a lot of privacy or protection.\n2. Canvas – this option is not necessarily the most attractive, but it will preserve heating and allow you to use your pool longer in the season.\n3. Glass – A glass or polycarbonate enclosure can be chosen for the entire pool or half of it, and it adds elegance to your landscaping. You can get the enclosure shaped like domes and even add a sunroof if you desire to get air and light in.\n4. Conservatories – if your pool enclosure is meant to not only cover and protect your pool but also be a fully functional pool house, you want to choose conservatories. These buildings are covers for your pool that span from 7-10 feet high and have space inside for lounging, changing cabins and other essentials. They are very large and pricey though, so get estimates to determine if this is in your budget.\nA Calabasas pool remodeling can serve many functions, so you must first evaluate your needs and budget to see the style that fits you. Choosing the right one will add to the longevity of your pool and the beauty of your landscape, so do your research.", "domain": "design"}

RESPONSIVE MOBILE DESIGN\nSome websites are built exclusively for use on mobile phones and devices.

MOBILE WEBSITE\nIf you, your team or a consultant creates a mobile app for your business, it is a completely separate type of software than what you have if you design a mobile website. Sometimes mobile apps are built and sold or shared through app stores (i.e., iTunes or Android). Some mobile apps are built and installed as stand-alone websites. Some mobile apps can also be embedded into your existing website or a webpage that is a subdomain of your existing website.\nHOW TO KNOW WHAT TYPE OF MOBILE IS BEST TO START WEBSITE FOR NEW BUSINESS\nAfter you have created your business plan with a corresponding marketing plan, you will have a better understanding of your new business needs.

The brand-new fastest ever before Apple iMac includes high-performance graphics that make video games run smoother, tons pictures quicker, as well as make applications function much better. If you desire also much faster graphics, there is additionally a choice to select an iMac with an advanced ATI graphics cpu.\nThis is why I produced the iMac VESA Mount Adapter to retrofit to the stand of the iMac utilizing the cable television opening on the back. By doing this, there is no demand to open up or customize your iMac computer system. It is extremely basic to make use of, connecting as well as removing promptly so you can conveniently relocate your computer system to an additional location, or take it with you on your trips. Additionally, lots of consumers share that they like not to eliminate the stand since they bought the iMac as a mobile system.\nThe 21.5-inch as well as 27-inch iMac sell imac designs use quick Intel Core 2 Duo cpus as much as 3.33 GHz. The 27-inch iMac functions Quad-core power with a 2.66 GHz Intel Core i5 cpu or 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7 cpu. The brand-new iMac has 4GB of 1066MHz DDR3 memory criterion, with space in its 4 SO-DIMM ports for as much as 16GB, so you can run extra applications at the very same time. And also with a Serial ATA disk drive as much as 2TB, do not hesitate to build up even more images, video clips, and also songs.\nThe complication is since Apple at once did supply an optional VESA adapter set with comparable iMac versions. The earlier iMac G5 designs that might be made VESA certified with adapter sets by Apple were: 2 designs with 20-inch screens– the iMac G5/1.8 20-Inch as well as G5/2.0 20-Inch, as well as 3 designs with 17-inch display screens– the iMac G5/1.6 17-Inch, G5/1.8 17-Inch, as well as G5/2.0 17-Inch.\nThe capability to install the iMac computer system to a wall surface or any kind of placing system needs that the iMac have a VESA certified user interface to affix to the tool. For the dimension as well as the weight of the iMac, it is recommended that this user interface provide the 100 x 100mm opening pattern for add-on. Moreover, to continue to be market basic these openings must make use of 4mm screw bolts.\nAdditional examination reveled there are numerous iMac individuals looking for the exact same VESA adapter remedy, however without dominate. It emerged that in order to fit the customer’s requirements, I would certainly require to produce a iMac VESA install adapter package from the ground up. In reviewing the adapter set job with the customer and also individuals I had actually talked to online, a couple of needs for the iMac place adapter were shown.\nShare this write-up on FacebookShare this post on TwitterShare this short article on LinkedinShare this post on RedditShare this post on PinterestExpert Writer Stephen Dingwall\nThe brand-new Apple iMac 21.5-inch, 1920-by-1080 screen has 17 percent extra pixels than the previous 20-inch iMac. The brand-new Apple iMac 27-inch, 2560-by-1440 display screen includes a monstrous 78 percent much more pixels than the 21.5-inch Apple iMac desktop. And also what’s even more, a 1000:1 comparison proportion guarantees you a lot more dynamic shades and also blacker blacks; all that in a widescreen screen with a 16:9 element proportion – the like an HD TELEVISION.\nFor individuals that might not know with the term “VESA certified”, VESA represents “Video clip Electronic Devices Specifications Organization”. The usual interpretation when describing LCD and also Apartment Panel keeps track of is: “VESA criterion” implies an opening pattern on the back of the screen; 75 mm x 75 mm or 100 mm x 100 mm (approx. 3″ x 3″ and also 4″ x 4″ specifically). The size of the screws made use of to install screens with VESA installing is 4 mm. The install openings on the back of LCD screens might be focused or situated in the direction of the lower stand. With particular screens you might need to get rid of the stand or a cover plate prior to you can access the install openings. If you want even more extensive details regarding VESA criteria, the VESA.org web site additionally supplies recaps of the company’s screen placing criteria.\nWhen it come to iMac versions used after these pre-iSight versions, just the 24″ iMac computer systems have actually had VESA adapter sets readily available from Apple. The 17″ as well as 20″ iMacs were left having no VESA brace set alternative and also even more notably, no very easy technique for getting rid of the stand. Due to this, and also the reality that many people that acquired the 17″ as well as 20″ iMac as a “mobile” computer system, it made good sense to establish a VESA adapter package for the iMac that would not need the stand to be eliminated or any kind of alteration to be made to the iMac computer system. This VESA adapter set offers the most effective of both globes throughout customer as it permits them the capability to connect their iMac to a VESA placing system and also install their iMac the means they want to i.e., over a job surface area, wall surface, cooking area closet, and so on. And also, when they determine to briefly relocate their iMac to a various place, or take it with them when they take a trip, the iMac prepares to opt for a couple of turns of the screw setting up.\nThe 17-Inch and also 20-Inch iMac designs from the “White” collection iMac Core 2 Duo have the exact same real estate and also stand as the initial Intel powered iMac Core Duo collection, and also these designs are VESA non-compliant also. The brand-new 20-Inch “Light weight aluminum” iMac Core 2 Duo designs additionally are not VESA certified.\nThe components are made in state-of-the-art, airplane light weight aluminum steel as well as a sturdy anodize coating is put on the adapter brace. I desired the adapter set to be ideal for the classy iMac, to appear like a component of the computer system. The set gives the appropriate user interface to connect the iMac to a VESA-compliant installing systems having the 100 x 100mm (4″ x 4″) opening pattern.\nIf you are looking for a VESA adapter package to install your iMac 17″ or iMac 20″, consisting of the brand-new Light weight aluminum iMac 20″, to a wall surface place system, verbalizing arm or any kind of installing system, your search mores than. For additional information concerning the iMac VESA Adapter Set for 17″ and also 20″ iMac we supply, please see our web site.\nThe iMac all-in-one computer system was developed to be a mobile system, just like a laptop enabling individuals to transfer in their office or home, or take it with them on their trips. The alternative for eliminating the stand (foot) as well as changing it with a VESA brace user interface was not consisted of with specific iMac versions consisting of: 2009 iMac 21.5 inch, Intel light weight aluminum iMac 20 inch, Intel iMac 17 as well as 20 inch “white” versions, iMac G5 w/iSight 17 and also 20 inch, iMac G5 (2006 and also later on) 17 as well as 20 inch.\nAs validated by Apple’s Assistance Website: “No VESA Mount Adapter Package” for the iMac Intel “Core Duo” and also iMac G5 “iSight”, making these iMac designs VESA non-compliant. And also, “while comparable in kind to previous iMac G5 designs, these designs are not suitable with Apple’s iMac G5 VESA Mount Adapter Package.”\nThe brand-new iMac is quicker at importing images as well as doing standard editing and enhancing jobs such as red-eye elimination and also to remove tiny imperfections in iPhoto. If you’re a picture fanatic that likes the power and also accuracy of even more expert applications, the 2.8 GHz quad-core iMac offers you approximately 2x quicker efficiency with Aperture.\nCurrently, Apple has actually presented their brand-new Intel based light weight aluminum iMac all-in-one computer systems. They have actually terminated the 20″ and also 24″ designs and also currently provide a 21.5″ as well as 27″. I have had the satisfaction of seeing the brand-new iMacs as well as have to state that Apple has actually once more developed something stunning. Similar to the previous 24″ iMac, the brand-new 27″ version does have a VESA place adapter package offered from Apple. Yet the even more preferred 21.5″ design has a stand that was not created to be gotten rid of as well as any kind of effort to do so might cause invalidating its guarantee.\nRecently, a customer wished to have their iMac computer systems placed to the wall surface to conserve job area and also it was thought that there was a VESA adapter brace readily available from Apple. When it came time to acquire the VESA adapter packages, we found these sets were either stopped or otherwise provided whatsoever. Locating the essential arm installs and also wall surface install gadgets was basic, however connecting the iMac computer systems to those placing systems was a brand-new difficulty.", "domain": "design"}

The best RC planes also arrive in different levels of completion ranging from ready to fly straight out of the box to requiring extensive assembly. You can purchase one fully assembled, or purchase a kit and build you own, piece by piece. For some RC enthusiasts, the ability to customize their plane can be pretty exciting.\nWe’ve included an RC plane buying guide that will include some of the key features to look for, including battery life, ease of use, and maneuverability, so you can find a model that works for you and your budget. You’ll also find a list of the top three rated RC planes on the market, each of which has received plenty of positive consumer feedback, whether it’s due to the plane’s easy handling or its ability to travel longer distances or fly higher.\n- 1 Top Remote Control Planes For Beginners Comparison Chart\n- 2 1.

However, the lightweight design also prevents users from flying on windy days.\nA plane that looks as good as it flies, this model is super fun to fly and can handle a wider range of weather conditions. The floats and traditional landing gear also increase this plane’s flying versatility.\nDromida Twin Explorer\nA twin explorer remote controlled plane that is perfect for beginners.\n1. Hobbyzone Sport Cub S RTF RC Airplane Review- Best Beginner RC Plane\nThe Hobbyzone Sport Cub is a ready to fly model. It features a panic recovery mode, a four channel control with working aileron, elevator, rudder, and throttle, and a steerable tail wheel that offers improved ground control. This is a fairly small plane, with a wingspan that measures only twenty-four inches. This allows you to fly the plane in much smaller areas, which is a huge plus for most consumers.\nThe plane itself is made from a durable foam and it features a flight weight of just a little over two ounces.\nThis is a plane that flies very well. It can actually get amazing altitude, however, you should be careful what sort of winds you’re flying the plane in, as any winds over five miles an hour can easily toss the plane around. The plane also handles tight turns like a pro and can easily maneuver around fences, trees, and other large structures. You can fly the plane high and fast or low and slow. It’s very versatile. Not only that, it’s also very stable, which is what makes it a great choice for beginners.\nCharging this plane is simple. Just plug the battery pack into your PC for about forty-five minutes and you’ll be good to go. Per charge, you’ll get about eight minutes of flight time.\nThe length of charge time was disappointing for some users, considering it takes almost an hour to charge and only has an eight minute flight time. The weight of the plane is also a downside for some. Because the plane is so light, you’ll only be able to fly it on low-wind days.\nThis is one durable little plane and it’s the perfect model to learn on. It can take a crash like a champ and features controls that are easy to use and SAFE technology, a feature that allows you to ease into flying at a lower speed.\n2. Flyzone DHC2 Beaver Remote Controlled Airplane Review-Best Maneuverability\nThe Beaver DHC2 remote controlled plane by Flyzone features an aerocell foam construction and comes with floats for water landings and takeoffs, in addition to the traditional landing gear. All of the onboard electronics have been installed, including the receiver.\nWe can easily say that this is one beautiful plane. This is a five channel plane with flaps, throttle, elevator, rudder, and ailerons. Just point this plane into the wind from a hard surface and it will take off at half throttle as long as you’re using a fully charged battery. Using full flaps when landing into the wind the plane can be stopped very quickly. You’ll have no trouble flying or landing this model on windy days. In the air, the Beaver is able to effortlessly handle tight and large loops.\nUsing the wheeled landing gear setup, this plane can also be easily flown by the beginner.\nWeighing in at three pounds, this durable plane offers a fifteen minute flight time, which is almost twice the flight time compared to competing models. The plane also features a faster charge time of just thirty minutes.\nThe ability to choose between floats and the traditional landing gear is a big selling point for consumers, however, we don’t recommend starting off flying with floats if you have no previous flight experience because a crash in the water is harder on a plane than a crash on land.\nA cool little plane that’s fun to fly, this model offers more versatility in terms of where it can fly and the type of weather it can handle. Highly maneuverable, you’ll enjoy taking the Beaver out for a little stunting, just be sure to take off using the wheeled landing gear and work your way up to the floats after some much-needed practice.\n3. Dromida Twin Explorer RC Plane Review-Best Value\nThe Twin Explorer remote control plane by Dromida is a great choice for beginners and comes ready to fly, right out of the box. The plane is made from a durable foam material that offers the right type of resilience for beginners who are bound to crash their plane often as they learn to fly. This is the right plane for anyone who wants to dip their toe into the remote control plane pool. Since the plane arrives ready to fly, all you have to do is charge the battery and put them into the transmitter. This plane is also the most affordable model we reviewed and it offers many of the same features you’ll find on higher priced models.\nThis incredibly lightweight plane weighs in at just 1.4 ounces and features a flight time that ranges from eight to ten minutes, depending on wind conditions. Charge time is around thirty minutes.\nWith a slight toss at around half throttle, the Twin will fly right out of your hand. This small plane needs some space to fly, so your backyard will be too small. We recommend taking it to a field. Once the plane gains some altitude it handles very well.\nThis plane can also really take a hit. Even after a crash, you won’t notice any ill effects. The Twin Explorer is built super tough.\nThe control inputs only include throttle and left and right. The plane’s turning is handled by the twin motors. There’s no ailerons or rudder included. Hitting the throttle too hard can result in losing control of the plane. As long as you stay smooth you can easily move this plane around in the sky.\nThis isn’t a plane we’d recommend to the serious RC plane enthusiast, however, it’s perfect for beginners or children. Despite its lightweight frame, this plane is definitely designed to take a beating without slowing down. Due to the low price, you’ll definitely benefit by purchasing this model as a starter plane and using it for practice or short outings. Overall, the quality and easy handling make the Twin Explorer well worth a second look.\nRC Plane Buyer’s Guide\nFor your very first RC plane, you need something that’s forgiving and stable. Most beginners are too tempted to buy a plane that can fly faster or looks cool, without giving much thought to how hard or easy the plane is to control. This can be a huge mistake.\nMost pros often recommend a high wing trainer for beginners. By high wing, we mean that the wings rest directly on top of the fuselage. This type of design adds a ton of stability, which is exactly what you need when you’re learning to fly.\nHigh wing models are very forgiving and stable because the weight of the fuselage below the wings works to stabilize the plane in flight. In the air, the plane always wants to naturally right itself after a turn, which is an action that will really help you as you learn.\nWhen you’re buying your first plane, another thing to look for is a noticeable dihedral, which is the upward V angle of the wings when the plane is viewed from the front. The more dihedral the plane has the more stable it will be.\nYou may have already decided whether you want to fly a model with an engine or an electric motor. Models with an electric motor are more beginner friendly and they’re cheaper to buy and fly. They also require fewer accessories and fly quieter. A glow plug powered model will require more accessories to maintain the engine and they only generate higher noise levels and are more expensive. You’ll also need to factor in ongoing fuel costs.\nThree channel planes are the most common, and they’re perfect for beginners. Single and two channel models are available, but these are more toys than anything else and aren’t really recommended for buyers who are serious about the hobby. A three channel plane is really what you’ll need because they offer more control for the rudder, elevator, and motor.\nReady to Fly or Assembly Required?\nWhether to purchase a model that’s ready right out of the box, or a kit is totally up to you. Buying a kit will involve building the plane from scratch, using the included instructions and parts. This can be very satisfying, but you’ll need some model building skills to do it well. You’ll also need to purchase a motor, radio gear, battery pack, and ESC, separately. We recommend learning to fly first before you risk crashing a plane that’s taken several days or weeks to build.\nA model that’s almost ready to fly will be about ninety percent finished. You’ll need to purchase radio gear, the battery pack, ESC, and the motor separately. To install these added components some modeling knowledge is required. An almost ready to fly plane can make an excellent introduction to model airplane construction if you intend to get involved in that side of the hobby as well.\nReady to fly planes will be your best option if you simply want to get flying right away. These planes come fully finished with all of the electronics installed. They’ll be nothing for you to do apart from installing the transmitter batteries and charging the battery pack.\nReady to fly planes that are electrically powered have attracted a large number of beginners to the hobby in the past few years. These planes are convenient, affordable, and simple to use. They’re also primarily made out of foam construction and are easily repairable.\nSpare Parts for your RC Plane\nIt’s a known fact that if you take up RC flying, you’re going to crash your plane at some point, especially if you’re just learning to fly. Most RC enthusiasts keep a supply of spare parts that allows them to easily repair their plane and get it back in the air in no time. When you’re shopping around for your plane, take the time to check whether spare parts for a particular model are available. Major brands often carry all the parts you could wish for. If you purchase a model that doesn’t have good backup parts, then you’ll be in for some potentially dodgy repairs that can have a major impact on your plane’s safety and performance after a crash.\nRead the User’s Manual Before you Fly\nIf your new plane just arrived in the mail, then you’re probably pretty eager to put it together and get your plane in the air as quickly as possible. But first, you’ll need to thoroughly read the user’s manual, before you begin the assembly process or attempt to fly your plane. Take your time to carefully study the manual and get comfortable and familiar with all of the plane’s components. The real key to understanding the instruction manual is to go through it before you do anything with the plane, then go through it step by step during the assembly process.\nIf the instructions simply don’t make sense or they’re too vague, do a little research and troubleshooting on your own. Join an RC forum and ask for help. Currently, the two biggest forums are RC Universe and RC Groups.", "domain": "design"}

The kit represents the popular homebuilt aircraft Van’s RV-4, and was made by an outfit named VFR Models in the UK. I bought mine on eBay for £33 (including shipping), and it arrived here in New Hampshire in mere 8 days.\nVan’s RV-4 is an early design in the popular RV series of “kit aircraft” intended for those who want to build a 1/1-scale aircraft by themselves. It was introduced in 1980, and since then well over a thousand aircraft have been built.\nWe are down to all kinds of detail painting now… this time, it is canopy frames and wheel wells.\nNormally I used a “phased” approach to painting canopy frames: first mask the latitudinal frames and paint them, then the longitudinal ones, finally any other remaining parts. This generally works well and saves me a lot of stress at the cost of just cleaning my airbrush a few more times. This time, however, I decided to do something different. I scanned the clear canopy part and used the resulting image as a guide to draw a mask. I then used my Cricut cutter to cut the mask from Tamiya masking tape. The results are surprisingly good.\nThe project has finally progressed to a point where I could start airbrushing actual camouflage. For paints I chose Tamiya acrylics and Mr. Color lacquers. Normally I paint everything with Tamiya, but in this project I am experimenting with Mr. Color, and so far the results have been absolutely excellent (albeit a bit stinky).\nHere is what I have used:\nFinnish field green (olive green)\nRLM 65 Hellblau (Finnish “DN-väri”)\nRLM 74 Graugrün\nRLM 75 Grauviolett\nMr. Color #37\nRLM 76 Lichtblau\nMr. Color #117\nRLM 71 Dunkelgrün\nMr. Color #17\n* Tamiya XF-24 or Tamiya XF-63? I think the appearance of the latter is just too dark for this small scale.\nToday I want to describe my experience in finishing the five cockpits and thus readying the models to be airbrushed. Basically all the cockpits were done, internally, so the main thing missing was the canopy on each aircraft. In the Bf 109, the pilot’s headrest/armor is attached to the canopy. G-2 and E-7 have solid armor plate headrests, but the G-6 has an armored glass window built in for better visibility. The FineMolds’ G-6 kit comes with a clear part for the headrest, so all you need to do is to mask the window and paint the part. The problem is that the window is roughly 2 mm by 3 mm is size. I solved the masking problem by first scanning the part (using a flatbed scanner), then used the scanned image to prepare a graphic (in Adobe Illustrator). I used the graphic to cut exact masks from Tamiya masking tape, using my Cricut Maker computer-controlled cutter. I placed the masks on both sides of the part, and airbrushed it with RLM 74.\nThe project is progressing well, but rather than talk about the models, I thought I’d share some of my thoughts about reference material. Those who know me will say that I tend to be mildly obsessed with research to support my scale model projects. Well, it is all relative, of course, but my one steadfast rule is that I will not build a model unless I have photographs of the individual aircraft in question. Sometimes it is hard to find “enough” pictures (for whatever is your definition of the word), and sometimes you have to supplement with pictures of other aircraft in the same unit, etc.\nLet me wax philosophical here for a moment… aircraft and aviation history have always fascinated me, and if you were to ask me “why do you build scale models?” my answer would be that it is to understand and preserve history. Other people will have other answers, and that’s fine. But I believe that as a means of preserving history, the model-building process has at least these objectives: to be as accurate as reasonably makes sense and to convey impressions to one’s audience (and I use this term in the same sense as the late 19th and early 20th century artists).\nAs for photographs, ideally, I would like to see them from all sides, revealing all details. This almost never happens, although this aspiration has led me to start preparing books that would give modelers just that. Right now, I have a book on AS.365N Dauphin helicopters nearing completion. But, I digress…\nWhen I dreamed up this project I was afraid that things might get too overwhelming at some point. Well, that is not the case yet anyway, since I am making very good progress with all my Bf 109s. This week I have managed to build five airframes to a point where they are basically missing just some details before I can start airbrushing. Some questions still remain (such as whether I will use Squadron vacuform canopies with those aircraft whose cockpit is open) but generally I can see how I will take this project from where it is now to its conclusion.\nI have built the Airfix Bf 109E-7 a few years ago, and found it to be a nice, accurate, and well detailed kit. As I was studying the same kit now on my workbench, it struck me that perhaps this could be a small “super-detailing” exercise. I have the True Details resin cockpit set, designed for the Hasegawa kit, but I figured I could make it work here as well. It certainly offers better details than the Airfix kit, although I have to say the details from the Airfix offering are quite nice and indeed I even built my earlier “Emil” with the canopy open.\nThe whole exercise could consist of the following:\nResin cockpit (from True Details), seat belts are part of the seat in this set so it will be better to use the seat from the kit with Eduard photo-etch seat belts,\nLowered flaps (the kit offers this),\nOpen engine cowling (in the E-model the entire upper cowling came off as a single part – the kit offers this possibility as well), more details added to the engine (perhaps), and\nMG 17 guns on top of the engine – for this, I can use a leftover part from the FineMolds’ G-2 kit, as I intend to replace the gun barrels on that one with brass parts from Master Model.\nThe FineMolds’ Bf 109G kits have very nice cockpit details and really the only thing one could/should add are the seat belts. However, for my G-2 I wanted to try the Aires resin and photo-etch cockpit set, primarily because I intend to leave the canopy open. For the Premium Hobbies’ kit I am using an Eduard photo-etch set originally designed for the Academy kit. The other two G-6s will just use FineMolds’ parts, and the Airfix E-7 will also be out-of-the-box, except for photo-etch seat belts.\nI started construction by airbrushing all G-models’ interiors with the dark gray RLM 74; I used Mr.Color semi-gloss enamel #36, a good match, but also an experiment for me since I normally use Tamiya acrylics. Mr.Color was a positive experience, easy to spray without any additional thinning. I used a Badger Patriot airbrush at approx. 20 PSI. Note that I also sprayed the photo-etch instrument panels which now will have to be assembled.\nI am a big fan of FineMolds’ Bf 109s, but I recently bought one of the brand new Premium Hobbies’ Bf 109G-14s just to see what it is like. It turns out it is a reboxing of the older Academy kit with new decals and – according to Scalemates – some new parts (which ones, I do not know, since I don’t have the original kit to compare with). Historically, the G-14 variant was an attempt to standardize many of the modifications and improvements that had already been introduced in late production G-6s. I will build this kit as a G-6 with an Erla canopy and the taller vertical tail surfaces (as part of my Grand Messerschmitt project of 2021).", "domain": "design"}

This morning after my walk with Ayla, I ordered a new trash container to be delivered to the farm. We decided that we’ll take the trash in the garage here to the farm and use that container instead of ordering another small container at the house. Then I packed everything up and went over to the farm to make sure all the workers were there and progress was being made. Thankfully the painters were there already and starting to remove the textured wall paper from the living room walls and ceiling. That is a pretty huge task which is definitely going to take some time since it’s two guys doing it but hopefully with in the next couple of days they will get everything off and be able to paint at the end of the week just in time for us to start moving stuff in.\nWe were concerned about there not being any hot water pipes in the kitchen for the sink and such but Macky is going to install a water heater for us under the sink since it would be inefficient to pull the hot water from the house system being that it’s not incredibly far away. The guys seem to be making progress on the bathroom as well and I’m really hoping they call soon about the delivery of the shower.\nAfter visiting the farm, I headed over to IKEA to pick up the oven, door grips (which will make using the kitchen cabinets quite a bit easier) and the furniture for the bathroom upstairs. Unfortunately, the smaller cabinet we were intending to use to balance out the kitchen cabinets doesn’t come in the same finish as our kitchen so we’re going to have to come up with something there…what we’re not really sure of yet but it’s one of our lessor worries at the moment. This IKEA was also missing the cabinet which goes under the sink for the bathroom so I will eventually need to hit up another IKEA store sometime this week which is supposed to have the cabinet in stock.\nThen it was back to the farm to drop everything off (except the oven which I barely got in the truck myself and will certainly need some help to get it into the farm) and off to Hornbach. I needed to pick up a furniture dolly to make the move go a bit smoother and quicker and a couple wardrobe boxes to move our clothes in.\nI couldn’t believe how well Ayla was taking all the stops this time around. She slept pretty much the entire time, whether I was driving or in the store or wherever. Again I have to be thankful for such an easy-going dog.\nI’m back at the house finally and going to try to get a few more boxes packed and see if there’s anything else I can cross off my list of To Do’s. Tomorrow will be another full day as the container should be delivered in the morning and I figure I’ll start moving some of the stuff from the horse stalls into the barn and attic so we can use that room for storage of a few things if we need to…and because most of that stuff really doesn’t need to be in there. If not that room, I’ll probably end up trying to rearrange stuff in Storage Rooms A, B & C which are a bit of a mess now and there’s quite a bit of space that’s not being used very well. But regardless of what I end up doing, I will most likely just need to make sure I keep on moving because it’s quite cold again here in Germany. We’ve got temps below freezing at night and around 45 during the day…and since the heaters still need to be blown out at the house to get rid of any stoppages, many of the doors are being left open because of the dust being created while these guys are working, and\nbecause of the number of people working, it’s just not comfortable for me to hang out there and wait for the container guy to show up, which could be anywhere from 9 am until noon.\nOnce that task is completed, I may travel to the other IKEA to pick up the sink cabinet since I want Macky to mount that for us if possible…and the more pieces of the bathroom we have here and completed, the better our chances are that it will be finished when we move in.\nThere’s still quite a few boxes to be packed all over the place as well so I guess I’ll fill up the last of the boxes we have here and make a trip to OBI eventually for more boxes….but at least the list of things to get done is growing shorter and the number of things left to pack is getting smaller.", "domain": "design"}

We dressed in black; I wore my steampunk-inspired earrings; we practiced our high fashion attitudes.\nHappily, this attitude was more appropriate to the event, the first ever DisArt Festival Fashion Show.\nFrom their website:\nDisArt is a multi-venue Disability Arts Festival scheduled for April 10-25, 2015 in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Through several world-renowned exhibits of Disability Arts from all over the world, DisArt Festival 2015 will challenge its audiences to reconsider the importance of community, identity, and difference.\nWhich sounds all fine and good, but let me tell you what it meant for the Fashion Show: every model was a person with a disability. Each was given the full hair and makeup treatment. Each got to strut their stuff on a professionally lit runway, accompanied by the musical stylings of a professional DJ and the raucous cheers of the audience — except when the sleeping baby came out and we all tried to clap quietly. Many of the designers were people with disabilities.\nIt was one of the most joyful events I’ve ever been to.\nUnlike most fashion shows that make the press, this was a family event, full of children and grandparents. Maybe a quarter of the crowd dressed for a fashion show, but the rest could have been going to any event their offspring were involved in. There were lots of kid volunteers, with whole families in blue DisArt T-shirts. The organizers kept having to bring in more chairs, and still, people wound up standing. Room 217 in the Woodbridge N. Ferris Building of Kendall College of Art and Design practically vibrated with excitement.\nRobert Andy Coombs, photographer (see his work at the DisArt Hub) and DisArt Fashion Coordinator, welcomed us to the event, and then the fun began.\nThe first three items of clothing were made by open style lab, a nonprofit enterprise out of MIT that designs and manufactures accessible garments. First was a black quilted jacket with grey detail just under the shoulder that was so cool-looking I forgot to notice what made it particularly great for those with disabilities. I talked to the model afterwards, and he said he’d buy that jacket in a heartbeat; some of the garments will be for sale in May, so hopefully he’ll get the chance.\nNext was a rain jacket (RAYN) designed for those who use wheelchairs. It has a section that, when unzipped, folds out to cover the wearer’s lap, and has a hood that lays softly against the back, yet when it’s flipped up, forms a brim that funnels rain away from the wearer’s face. I talked with this model afterwards, as well, and he enjoyed the whole process — even his own America’s-Next-Top-Model-makeover-day experience, when one of the stylists didn’t like his hair and wanted to cut it. The model agreed, and loves his new haircut.\nThe final garment from open style lab was a gorgeous asymmetrical white jacket for women that featured magnetic closings that made it easier to put on and take off. Underneath it, model Jessica Poll wore a white pleated, goddess-style top (that I may have coveted just a tiny bit). Ms. Poll beamed her entire time on the runway.\nThe next group of garments were T-shirts and boots designed by military veterans who had been wounded during their service, many during combat in Iraq. A local organization, Fashion Has Heart, pairs designers with veterans to create a T-shirt that represents their journey, as well as boots that are then manufactured by Wolverine. The first model pictured here, the guy with the awesome multicolored mohawk who is totally working the crowd, is wearing a shirt designed by a man with burns over 90% of his body after his vehicle was hit by an IED. The design shows a man in the middle of flames, rising like a phoenix.\nThe young woman below is modeling a shirt designed by an Iraq war veteran who lost her sight. The tagline on the shirt: “When life gives you lemons, you make the best damn lemonade.” The design is also textural, so a person with visual impairments can enjoy the different design elements.\nThere were several more T-shirts — one with a gold medal to symbolize the veteran’s hope of becoming a Paralympian, another with many doors, another with an image of the designer standing on his bionic legs. All the T-shirts from Fashion Has Heart are for sale for $25 each.\nThe final group of garments were designed by students in a class at the Kendall College of Art and Design and in partnership with Spectrum Health Innovations. Each student was paired with a child with a disability and tasked with creating clothing that would be supportive, that would be able to accommodate diapers and leg braces, that would have seams that lie flat. AND that a kid would want to wear — these functional garments had to be fun and attractive. They totally were.\nThere was a Mickey Mouse-themed outfit with a cape for a toddler who wasn’t quite as excited about the bright lights as some of the other models. An outfit that looked like it could be Green Bay Packers practice gear. One of the models was clearly having so much fun, zooming with his walker, but taking his moment in the spotlight at the beginning and end of the runway, that I forgot to notice what he was wearing, except that it had a cape, too. The garments took advantage of cutting-edge fabrics, with 4-way stretch, and with compression capabilities to support the kids’ muscle development and placement. The pants all had really cool-looking seaming that had functional purposes, but they managed to make it look and feel great for the kids wearing them. It was such a great experience that the instructor of the class hopes they’ll be able to run it again.\nWhen Robert Andy Coombs came out again, he got a standing ovation. He called out festival director, Chris Smit, who also got the standing ovation treatment, and then made many people cry with these words:\nWe wanted to flip things on their heads, and I think we just did it. There are opportunities for this to happen all over. But it didn’t happen in New York. It didn’t happen in Chicago. It didn’t happen in L.A. It happened right here in Grand Rapids!\nNow that it’s happened here, I hope it happens all over.\nIf necessity is the mother of invention, then the DisArt Fashion Show demonstrated that designers and fabric technologists are more than up to the task of designing beautiful garments that fill some real needs in the world — whether the need is for more functional garments for those with disabilities, or for self-expression, or for beauty. Or all three.\n* The festival continues all week, with exhibitions, films, round tables, family days, dance performances. All for free. Check out the schedule. *\n** I apologize for not being a proper reporter and not getting the names of all the models. If anyone who reads this knows their names, send me a message and I’ll add them.

We anticipate that Amaala will become an international hub for luxury yachting and, as such, the yacht club required a world-class design, influenced by the surrounding natural elements and Arabic heritage, and underpinned by our commitment to sustainability,” said Amaala CEO John Pagano.\nDrawing design inspiration from two sets of geometry, HKS first looked to the unique rock formations on the Saudi Red Sea coastline to create the club’s bespoke cantilevered terraces, which echo the natural shape of the surrounding cliffs, eroded over time by wind and sea.\n“We were clear from the outset that we wanted to create a building of its place, with the design drawing inspiration from local landscapes and culture, alongside the nature of the marina lifestyle. The team wanted to re-imagine the yacht club as a modern concept, a home from home for nautical enthusiasts from all backgrounds, from leisure to elite sport,” said Dan Flower, HKS design director and lead architect for Amaala Yacht Club.\nThe second inspiration is drawn from mankind’s relationship with the sea and maritime history. This nautical edge will ensure the building sits seamlessly within the marina as a central hub and focal point.\nAlongside the ‘sea meets land’ concept, the design references the look of a traditional Arabian house, with a simple smooth white exterior that is cut back to reveal luxurious metal. Internally it features a rich palette of natural and locally sourced materials, such as stone, timber and leather.\n“Amaala offers an unparalleled opportunity to shape a new tourism destination and a new home for yachting on the Red Sea. It is a privilege to be involved as designers of this iconic yacht club, which is a centrepiece for the marina and set to evolve guest experience,” explained Kevin Underwood, global head of hospitality at HKS.\n“We brought together the global expertise of our firm, using our experience of creating luxury destinations to create something truly innovative and contemporary. Sustainability in all aspects is at the heart of our design, seamlessly integrating the building with the stunning mountain and marine landscape of the Red Sea,” he added.\nCovering 7,900m² (85,000ft²) and arranged on four levels, the ultra-luxurious club is set to create a home from home for its members whether to do business, relax, entertain or take part in a calendar of yachting events.\nArrival is a key moment for guests by land or water, with the entrance set within an arch that forms a shaded plaza and frames dramatic views to the Red Sea. The area has a mirrored vaulted ceiling over a star-lit floor which creates an alternative night sky for guests in the evening.\nThe interior of the club, also designed by HKS, along with the landscaping detail, is as visually stimulating as the exterior, with unparalleled attention to detail to ensure guests remain connected to the landscapes around them. Utilising local materials, with a focus on stone, timber and metals, and embracing a luxurious, yet authentic brass champagne colour scheme, the lounges and restaurant blend seamlessly together with an infinity loop-like shape throughout.\nComplementing the yacht club’s functions, the 10ha (25 acre) basin hosts a 120-berth marina for yachts up to 130m (430ft) in length, and is designed for residents as well as yachting events, regattas and launches. Deepwater superyacht berths, fuel dock and personalised service ensure Triple Bay’s future rating as a destination for visiting superyachts, international regattas and domestic cruising.\nSet across 4,155km² (1,604mi²), and due to welcome first guests in 2024, Triple Bay spans three natural bays along the coastline. The destination is designed to create a one-of-a-kind global wellness hub and is underpinned by a commitment to sustainability. The whole development is targeting a minimum LEED Gold standard for environmental sustainability.\nPhase One of Triple Bay is on track to complete in 2024. It consists of eight resorts offering upwards of 1,300 hotel keys and will also feature a range of luxury food and beverage outlets, retail and leisure facilities.\nWork is well underway with more than 1,000 workers already on site. More than 250 contracts for the project have been awarded to date. An RFP for the Utilities PPP has been issued to the market to ensure the development meets its sustainability ambitions. The destination will be off grid, powered solely by renewable energy.", "domain": "design"}

After that the 3D food printer Bocusini Pro is modelling the bridal couple fully automatically. Special knowledge is not necessary. With a final modelling step, confectioners may add their own personal touch.\nAfter the successful shipping of more than 100 Bocusini plug & play 3D Food Printing Systems, the startup Print2Taste will now focus on the development of innovative food refills and applications. Here, especially for expert users in the field of confectionary, bakery, gastronomy or catering) new fascinating business cases should be visible.\nTherefore, within the next months several new Bocusini food refills will be available. Here, Bocusini Choco will be the first product enabling access to a new world of creatively printed food objects.\nIt’s really plug & play: Just load the refill in the Bocusini system, easily create your own object and start your print.\nFascinating choco objects with filigree wall thickness or complex shapes will be the nice reward for your efforts. A variety of different applications available for all Bocusini owners on the Bocusini web platform, will additionally enable all users to realise objects refined with their own delicious food fillings and creative decorations.\nAlthough, due to the natural limitations of the food material, not all shapes may presently be realised, a huge variety of creative objects is imaginable.\nWe are really happy to tell you, that all preordered 3D food printing systems have meanwhile left our facilities. The whole team likes to thank you all for your faith in our project and the patience during the last months.\nThe development of such a new and innovative product is always a huge experience of sun and rain, highlights and drawbacks. Therefore, I would additionally take the opportunity to thank the whole team being involved in the development, production and fulfilment at Print2Taste. They had been facing a lot of challenges concerning the Bocusini 3D food printer, the printable food products and the user interface.\nMany thanks also to our partner printrbot and here especially to Brook and Byrren and the whole team behind for a lot of fruitful and challenging discussions and the support with the present printer system.\nWe hope, that for all of us, this will only be the first step to a new world of incredible impressive printable food products. At the moment, we are aiming on the development of new use cases or business models for our Bocusini owners. This could be for example the print of company logos or personalised messages on desert plates or cakes or the production of give-aways for customers. Economically much more interesting use cases will soon be visible here on bocusini.com.\nBocusini is still the worldwide only universal plug & play 3D food printing system. To confirm this, we will soon launch 4 additional printable food products available as refill for the Bocusini system.\nYour Bocusini Team\nDid you know that there is the „Skyscraper Day“ on 3rd of September? For us, this is a good opportunity for reporting on our first large give-away production and for launching the video of producing 450 miniature Upper-West skyscraper give-aways made out of marzipan.\nThe occasion was the topping-out ceremony of the Upper West on 19th of May, which was build next to the “Gedächtniskirche” in Berlin. Each guest should be provided with his or her own miniature Upper West as take away. Thus, we produced them at our facilities in Freising and brought them safely to Berlin.

Albrecht Nature Playscape, the World’s Fair Pavilion Comfort Station, and the new gravel path through the Successional Forest.\nJoin us for a tour of a few of the Park’s accessibility features that you may not notice.\nThe Variety Wonderland Playground\nWhen the Variety Wonderland Playground opened in 2005, it was already ahead of its time. But after its May 2021 renovations, this Park favorite improves accessibility.\nOn the We-Go-Round, kids in wheelchairs spin alongside playground mates, because they can wheel directly onto this specially designed merry-go-round. Parallel bars at different heights allow differently-abled kids to grasp the bars overhead. Easy transfer points allow children to easily move from wheelchairs onto the new slides without feeling any different.\n“These innovations create opportunities for inclusive play,” Grossmann says. “The Variety Wonderland Playground is about more than play—it’s about building relationships.”\nIndeed, one of the most popular features, the metal disk swing, is a magnet for all kids. Grossmann says it is the most popular feature in the renovated playground.\n“It’s cool and popular, and it’s designed around mobility needs, stability and support, but you would never know it,” says Grossmann. “All the kids are naturally drawn to it.”\nThe Forest Park team worked with Variety, the Children’s Charity of St. Louis, to identify the playground’s new functionality and activities. Then, they worked with the same provider of accessible equipment they used for the original playground.\nAnd they have literally thought of everything. For example, the playground includes both plastic and metal slides.\n“Kids with cochlear implants can’t use plastic slides, because the static buildup interferes with the sensitive electronics in their hearing devices,” Grossmann explains.\nAdd the sensory play wall and the refurbished, super-soft surface, and you truly have a playground for everyone.\n“Everything we do at Variety focuses on developing skills, ending isolation, building self-esteem, and instilling independence for kids with different abilities,” says Brian Roy, Executive Director of Variety. “And everything in this reimagined playground supports those goals.\n“Forest Park is a gem,” Roy continues, “and to have been at the forefront of creating the Wonderland Playground in 2005 and see it continue to expand as a place where all kids and families can play together has been amazing. We are so grateful to everyone who helped make it possible.”\nThe Nature Playscape\nUnlike the 21st-century equipment in the Variety Wonderland Playground, you won’t find any equipment in the Anne O’C. Albrecht Nature Playscape—but it’s every bit as accessible.\n“The Nature Playscape is truly about taking little safe risks, but we designed it to allow everyone to take those risks,” says Grossmann. “Even the benches are designed with accessibility in mind.”\nAccessibility features start between the Nature Playscape and the World’s Fair Pavilion.\n“Ten years or so ago we surveyed people who used the recreational path system about improvements and amenities they would like to see, and the new World’s Fair Comfort Station resulted from some of this feedback,” Grossmann says. “There was a strategic decision to connect the restoration of this restroom site with the creation of the Playscape. It’s a great meetup place for bikers and runners, but also for anyone using the Playscape.”\nIn addition to its heated restrooms that can be used year-round, Grossmann proudly points out the new tables where people can gather and enjoy a picnic lunch before exploring the Playscape.\n“Some of them are designed with only three seats, which leaves room on the fourth side,” Grossmann notes “That lets anyone in a wheelchair roll right up to the table and eat with their friends and family.”\nThe Playscape’s accessibility features, like the Playscape itself, result from the voices of children. In more than 20 engagements at community centers, schools, after-school programs, youth programs, and more, kids of all abilities used Colorforms to lay out their vision for the design team. A smaller group of kids, the Youth Advisory Committee, known as the YAC, met with the New York-based design team—virtually or in-person—whenever they came to town. The City of St. Louis’ Office on the Disabled participated in design discussions and reviews.\nContinuing to the Playscape, Grossmann points out the wheelchair-accessible parking spaces before starting down the carefully designed gravel paths.\n“The gravel is actually over an asphalt base,” Grossmann says, scraping away a thin layer of stone to demonstrate. “That makes it fully accessible. The grade and transitions to boardwalks all meet Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements. The other paths are also up to most people’s abilities, whether they are using a wheelchair, walker or another mobility device.”\nAs we walk through the 17-acre Playscape, Grossmann points out how even many natural features, such as boulders in the Spring, are placed for easy transfer from a wheelchair. Virtually anyone can dangle their toes in the water here.\nMeanwhile, official signs along with the path feature braille, and they are placed at eye level for wheelchair users and young ones. Such features provide accessibility, but the signage also makes it easier for everyone to enjoy the Playscape.\n“We were intentional about designing for international visitors, making sure they felt welcome, too,” Grossmann says. “The design team developed a kind of universal iconography for essential services, such as drinking fountains and comfort stations. That way, if you’re lost or you’re looking for something and English is not your first language, you can look at the sign and know where to go.”\nSmaller details throughout the Nature Playscape demonstrate its planner’s commitment to providing a safe environment for all. Even a humble one-inch edging along boardwalk areas plays an important role.\n“In some places, we do have railings for safety, but we love providing access without having rails everywhere when we can,” Grossmann explains. “That little edging allows people in wheelchairs, visually impaired visitors or kids in strollers to experience nature safely, with nothing in between them.\nAnd then there are the benches.\n“Just like some of the tables in the Comfort Station, the benches are designed and placed so people in wheelchairs or other mobility devices don’t have to be at the end, apart from their group,” she says. “They can sit right in the middle and feel included, which is so important and something most people don’t think about.”\nThe Successional Forest … and Beyond\nAs a bonus, most of the benches are made from wood that was either reclaimed from the Nature Playscape site during construction or from elsewhere in Forest Park. Sitting on a bench and looking from the Nature Playscape to the bright gravel path that now cuts through the Successional Forest (providing more access, however not ADA compliant) to the east, the message is clear: Nature is here for us, and we are here for nature.\n“It’s a nice juxtaposition, because you start at the Comfort Station, which is relatively controlled, and move into the Nature Playscape,” Grossmann says. “The Nature Playscape allows more unstructured play than the Variety Wonderland Playground, but with formal, fully accessible trails. With the new trail through the more unstructured and rustic Successional Forest, even a wilder area feels more accessible.”\nGrossmann’s hope is that as people feel comfortable moving from the Playscape to the Successional Forest, they will feel safe and welcomed throughout the Park.\n“Maybe they’ll go from the Successional Forest to one of the savannas, or prairies, or to Kennedy Forest and experience those as well,” notes Grossmann. “That way, people of all abilities can see how important these natural areas and green spaces are, and enjoy some creative play in a slightly less structured world.”", "domain": "design"}

Serving as the initial public-facing platform for the organisation, the website is a key tool for the Secretariat to engage with its membership and the wider international community.\nThe Secretariat team had identified several problems with their previous website; it was dated from a design perspective, clunky, and complicated to navigate. In addition to remedying these issues, the CPA required several pieces of functionality including a Learning Management System, Event Management, and integration with a Customer Relationship Management platform (CRM).\nFollowing a competitive tendering process, CPA appointed CSI Media to design and develop the new solution.\nAs the initial public-facing platform for CPA, we focused on designing a modern website that represented the prestige and officiality of the organisation. Usability was integral to our design approach, whilst maintaining a high-level of accessibility was crucial to the diverse membership.\nWe designed custom UIs for key landing pages, and a set of 15 components including a slideshow, a video block, and event teasers.\nOur choice of Content Management System (CMS) was Umbraco, a powerful, easy-to-use CMS where the Secretariat manage the content on their website. Umbraco incorporates a Page Builder tool that enables CPA to build custom landing pages by adding any combination of components, helping the Secretariat to effectively engage and communicate with its wide-reaching audience.\nThe website includes a Directory Listing where users can search for parliamentary members via several criteria including name, country, and parliaments/legislatures. When a search is conducted, records are retrieved from the integrated CRM, Microsoft Dynamics 365.\nCPA provide a curriculum of online training courses to support Parliamentarians and parliamentary officials in fulfilling their constitutional and statutory obligations. We developed a Learning Management System, incorporating functionality that enables the Secretariat to create custom modular courses in Umbraco. Parliamentarians can access these courses via an integrated portal and complete the associated assessments and exams.\nThe Secretariat can set up events for members and parliamentarians to attend including committee meetings, conferences, and workshops. CPA can specify the details of the event (event name, description, date & time), mark each event as either ‘public’ - which are displayed to all users on the event listing page - or ‘private’, which are invite-only, and accept/decline event-registration requests. Finally, events are either paid or free and, therefore, we integrated the website with Worldpay and PayPal to enable online payments.\nIn the 12 months following launch, the new website recorded the following results:", "domain": "design"}

Built between 1886 and 1905, the estate’s buildings, designed by architect Robert H. Robertson, include Shelburne House—the Webbs’ stunning Shingle- and Queen Anne–style residence with Lila Webb’s design for a formal Italianate flower garden—and the Farm Barn, Coach Barn, and Breeding Barn. Landscape designer Frederick Law Olmsted planned the original 4,000 acres of pasturelands, woodlands, carriage and riding trails, and picturesque settings for the many domestic and farm buildings, which now provide some of the most bucolic views of Vermont’s pastoral landscape and dramatic views of New York’s Adirondack Mountains, directly across Lake Champlain.\nPeriod photographs capture the Webb’s original vision, while new photography by Glenn Suokko showcases the splendid results of the decades-long restoration. Once a private country estate that remained in the same family for close to a century, Shelburne Farms is now a nonprofit organization and sustainable working farm open to the public. The Webbs’ residence, Shelburne House, has been transformed as an inn that showcases many original paintings, furnishings, wall coverings, sculpture, and decorative arts. The farm raises and grows most of the food it serves at its award-winning farm-to-table restaurant. Over twenty recipes created for this book by the Inn’s executive chef complete a captivating glimpse into this enchanting place.\n288 pages, 9 x 12 inches\n340 color photographs", "domain": "design"}

It covers everything from the logistics to the visual details.\nSMART (specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, time-bound) objectives should be established as the basis for planning. Market research is also essential to consider for this stage.\nVisual displays are an essential element of event design. They communicate information, reinforce branding, and captivate attendees. There are many different types of visual displays, such as stage backdrops, signage, installations, and multimedia elements. It is important to consider the objectives and theme of the event when choosing visual display methods. This will help ensure that the design and decor complements the event and creates a cohesive experience for attendees.\nThe use of visuals can also be used to evoke emotions in attendees and create a sense of ambiance and atmosphere. For example, the use of colors and shapes can elicit feelings of excitement or trust. Moreover, sound can play a significant role in affecting how attendees respond to visuals. For example, Starbucks plays different music depending on the time of day to encourage customers to linger and buy more coffee.\nA common visual manifestation technique in retail is window displays. These can draw attention, convey brand messaging, and increase product sales. In addition, they can create a sense of urgency in shoppers to make a purchase. This is particularly useful during promotional sales.\nAnother popular visual manifestation technique for events is video walls. These can be used to showcase products, engage attendees, and make presentations more effective. They can be used in a variety of settings, including trade shows, conferences, and museums.\nEvent design is a powerful tool that can elevate an event from ordinary to extraordinary. By establishing a coherent theme, utilizing lighting and colors, creating engaging displays, balancing functionality and aesthetics, incorporating thoughtful decor elements, integrating branding and personalization, and collaborating with professional event designers, you can create unforgettable experiences that leave a lasting impression on attendees.\nThe lighting of an event is one of the most important elements to consider. It can be used to create a specific atmosphere, and it can also help to control the flow of guests and highlight different areas of the venue or decor. It’s also a great way to add visual interest to an event, and it can even be used to reinforce the brand or theme of the event.\nThe use of lighting can dramatically influence the mood of a room, creating an atmosphere that resonates with the desired emotion for the event. For example, warm, soft lighting can infuse a space with intimacy, while vibrant, dynamic lighting can fuel energy and excitement. Lighting can also be used to play with the lines of a space, drawing attention to particular areas using directional light or by using uplighters, pin/spotlights and gobos (lights with patterned stencils).\nAchieving the right focus is essential in event design, and lighting can be used to draw attendees’ attention to key features of the venue and the program. It’s also a great tool for guiding attendees through the program, subtly directing their attention between different sections of the event or to specific presenters and performers.\nEvent designers have a variety of tools at their disposal to help them achieve the right results, from sourcing and testing materials to ensuring that the final product is on budget and delivered on time. The best event designers are able to take into account all the factors that go into planning an event, and they have a creative process that helps them create exceptional experiences for their attendees. Those interested in becoming event designers can either pursue a university master’s degree or join a reputable event production company that offers training and mentorship.\nWhen designing an event, color plays a crucial role in establishing the aesthetic and creating the mood of the occasion. It can also help to communicate a theme or even encourage certain feelings among attendees. For example, using the colors associated with a particular time period can transport guests to that time and place, or bright and warm colors can create a sense of excitement. Using colors in a way that aligns with the event’s purpose is important to avoid overdoing it or making it too gimmicky.\nThe color of an event’s decor, from linens to banners and signs, is a key aspect in conveying the theme and atmosphere. Colors can also be used to highlight specific elements of the venue, such as a registration tent or buffet table. A good rule of thumb is to choose a color that stands out enough to be easily seen from a distance. This will make it easier for guests to find what they’re looking for.\nAside from the impact of decor, color is often used in the lighting at an event to fine-tune the energy and mood of a space. Adding subtle or dramatic shades of the same color can create a very different effect, such as using uplighting to project the logo of an event’s sponsor in their branding colors.\nChoosing a color palette can be difficult, but with some simple research you can make sure your colors align with the purpose of an event and help to achieve its goals. Consider using a color wheel to identify complementary hues, which pair well together and create a harmonious blend. Neutrals, such as tans and beiges, are also popular in design, as they create a clean, sophisticated look and can provide a backdrop for other decor items.\nThe use of textures adds dimension to a design and captivates the audience’s attention. Textures can be soft, rough, shiny, or even icy, and are often used to evoke certain emotions or themes. For example, a rustic-themed event might incorporate wood, stone, and brick. Alternatively, a more modern or sleek event may use metallics and glass. The textures you choose should align with the event’s theme and message, but they also need to compliment the aesthetic of the overall event.\nFor example, if you’re using a bright red banner to promote a new product, you might want to coordinate it with the rest of the event decor to reinforce your message. You can do this by matching the color and other aesthetic elements to the brand’s logo and colors. Another way to make your event decor pop is through the use of lines. Horizontal lines can be added with items like rugs, furniture, or walls, while vertical lines can be achieved through things like drapes and columns. Dynamic lines are also important, and can be incorporated by adding curves or angles to an object.\nEvent design is the process of transforming a space into an inspiring experience for attendees. It encompasses many aspects of event planning, including deciding on the theme and visual display of the event, as well as choosing a venue and creating the right atmosphere. Event designers are skilled at creating a cohesive and polished look for an event, while also staying within budget. They can help plan a timeline to guide event management teams in the creation of an impactful event. They can also help identify event goals and create a strategic approach to achieve those goals.\nA theme is the foundation of every design decision, and it sets the tone for the whole event. It should be short and memorable, and it should capture the idea you want to convey. It should also be strategic, and it should align with your goals. This will help you attract the right people and engage your audience.\nYou should also consider how your theme will fit with your venue. This will determine whether you need to add certain elements like a photo booth or selfie corner to your space, or whether you can incorporate the theme into existing features of the venue. You can also use your theme to select activities that will help break the ice and encourage networking. A good way to do this is by offering a workshop with speakers who can teach attendees something new, or by putting on an entertainment show that matches the theme.\nIncorporate texture into your event, so that it isn’t just visual but also tactile. We’re sensory creatures, so this is a must-have. For example, a bouncy rubber floor will be wanted to jump on, while a fluffy wall might be stroked. You can also incorporate textural elements by using materials that are both visually and tactile, such as a brick-printed wallpaper.", "domain": "design"}

Oh, and we want individuals moving them to be safe, too.\nInitially glance, pinball devices can appear frightening to move because of their fragility, size, and weight. Luckily, our skilled Giants have a few techniques up their sleeves to guarantee your pinball is moved with ease.\nFolding Down the Headbox\nThe majority of contemporary pinballs (made in the last Twenty Years or so) have a hinge system which enables the headbox to be folded down. Early pinball makers had their headboxes bolted on, using either 2 or 4 bolts. All Electro-Mechanical pinballs use this system, together with the early Strong State machines.\nLater makers have hinges and utilize a latching system to keep the headbox upright. There might likewise be two bolts inside as added security, in case the lock is broken or accidentally un-latched.\nFor Electro-Mechanical pinball devices, you require to remove the headbox rear access panel to acquire access to the bolts and plugs within. Usually this panel has a lock on it to keep it in place, however with time the key may have been lost. On a regular basis, there is a screw keeping this panel in place.\nWhen within, remove the bolts and unplug the large adapters that have wiring going down into the device. You might wish to label these ports to put them back in the ideal area, but they ought to be various sizes, making it hard to plug back incorrectly.\nYou can now eliminate the headbox totally, or fold the headbox down onto the playfield glass. Make certain you use some foam, heavy cardboard, or blankets to protect the headbox from rubbing on the cabinet. Foam is best, as it will assist keep the back glass in location.\nEarly Strong State Pinballs\nFor early Solid State Pinballs, you will need to eliminate the back glass.

So, you might think that introducing another popup application to the Shopify store is a crazy decision. (Honeslty, you might even be right but we’re doing it anyways)\nThe all-in-one solution\nMany stores on Shopify end up using 2-5 different apps. A Shopify store usually has an upsell popup app, social proof popups, newsletter popups, and many others. That means having to find all these apps, view the features to ensure it accomplishes all that you need, learn each function and pay a monthly fee for each app. Our core focus in building Easypop is to create an all-in-one solution that’s modular and flexible. We want to give merchants the ability to quickly and easily manage all their on-site marketing from a single dashboard.\nMinimal and Beautiful\nEasypop is beautiful by default! We’ve purposely stripped back the design options so you don’t have to sort through hundreds of templates. We’re using a minimal aesthetic so your campaigns look incredible out of the box. This makes it simple for merchants to create and design their campaigns. The clean and minimal popups will elevate your Shopify site while fitting seamlessly into your existing branding.\nWe know how important it is to have a well-optimized Shopify site and the effects it can bring. According to Shopify, “Online stores can expect 35% of total traffic to come from search engine results pages. Site optimization factors everything from content, to site speed to user experience. We know speed matters, and for ecommerce brands, a few seconds can have a huge impact. That’s why we’ve made sure to optimize Easypop to reduce performance impacts and improve user experience.\nHow it works\nEasypop includes three different campaign components:\n- Content type (what kind of campaign you want to run)\n- Style templates (how you want your campaign to look)\n- And conditions (when and where to show the campaign)\nEach component works together to create a full campaign. By splitting the campaign creation into these three components we’re able to give you full control and flexibility to create the exact campaign you need.\nWhat are my content type options?\nWhen you install Easypop, your campaign type options will show up first.\nEasypop includes a handful of campaign types (with more coming soon).\n- Newsletter (obviously we made a newsletter type)\n- Standard message\n- Mini message\n- Cart progress bar\n- Product feed\n- Single product\n- Custom HTML\nA newsletter campaign created through the Easypop.\nWhat’s even more exciting about Easypop is we’ve built the app to be completely modular which allows us to add and extend the functionality further. With that being said, we plan to build out a larger catalog of content types in the coming months.\nYou can expect Easypop to be updated with more content types. We already have a long list that we will be working on such as age verification, postal code verification, blog post, scratch and save, geo-redirection, SMS collection, and many more coming soon.\nWhat are the style template options in Easypop?\nAfter choosing your content type, your style template will appear. This is where the magic happens. Right now, Easypop has five style templates.\n- Modal - This is the standard popup box that appears throughout most ecommerce sites. This popup appears in the center with a blurred overlay.\n- Fullscreen - This popup is great to put all the attention on your campaign and block content on a specific page.\n- Drawer - The drawer is a favourite used throughout Shopify stores and works great on mobile.\n- Message Box - The message box sits in the bottom corner and reminds the visitor of a special deal or important message. It’s great to guide your visitors to a specific point of your site.\nAn Easpop campaign featuring a product feed that is used as an upsell.\nThe benefits of conditions options\nConditions in Easypop are used to trigger your campaign settings and customize where and when your campaign will appear. For example, you can display a campaign when someone scrolls through 50% of a specific page. You could even go a step further and only show a campaign to customers who have $10 in their cart and have been on a page for more than 30 seconds. All customizable to fine-tune the delivery of your popup.\nAn Easypop campaign using the cart progress bar.\nHow our past experience has influenced our approach to Easypop\nWe have been working in the Shopify space for 7 years and have seen the various apps Shopify merchants are using. We have seen the growth ecommerce has had and how wide the gap is in the app store to deliver a true single app solution for on-page marketing. We have also learned a lot from our Shopify clients on what features they are looking for in a solution. Easypop was created with our past client and user experiences in mind.\nIs this what you need?\nRight now, you can install Easypop and try the app out completely free.\nIf you have thoughts to share, want to connect or want a discount for any of our paid plans (we’re only offering discounts for early adopters, so get on board while you can) hit me up on Twitter 👇\nA few weeks ago (feels like yesterday) we launched our new @Shopify app @easypopapp. It’s a simple and flexible marketing tool - here are some cool things you can do with it — Thomas Kimura (@itstomkim) May 4, 2021", "domain": "design"}

It is officially built-in and fully supported by TensorFlow.\nThere are two important concepts in Keras: Model and Layer . The layers encapsulate various computational processes and variables (e.g., fully connected layers, convolutional layers, pooling layers, etc.), while the model connects the layers and encapsulates them as a whole, describing how the input data is passed through the layers and operations to get the output. Keras has built in a number of predefined layers commonly used in deep learning under\ntf.keras.layers, while also allowing us to customize the layers.\nKeras models are presented as classes, and we can define our own models by inheriting the Python class\ntf.keras.Model. In the inheritance class, we need to rewrite the\n__init__() (constructor) and\ncall(input) (model call) methods, but we can also add custom methods as needed.\nclass MyModel(tf.keras.Model): def __init__(self): super().__init__() # Add initialization code here, including the layers that will be used in call(). e.g., # layer1 = tf.keras.layers.BuiltInLayer(...) # layer2 = MyCustomLayer(...) def call(self, input): # Add the code for the model call here (process the input and return the output). e.g., # x = layer1(input) # output = layer2(x) return output # add your custom methods here\ntf.keras.Model, we can use several methods and properties of the parent class at the same time. For example, after instantiating the class\nmodel = Model(), we can get all the variables in the model directly through the property\nmodel.variables, saving us from the trouble of specifying them one by one explicitly.\nThen, we can rewrite the simple linear model in the previous chapter\ny_pred = a * X + b with Keras model class as follows\nimport tensorflow as tf X = tf.constant([[1.0, 2.0, 3.0], [4.0, 5.0, 6.0]]) y = tf.constant([[10.0], [20.0]]) class Linear(tf.keras.Model): def __init__(self): super().__init__() self.dense = tf.keras.layers.Dense( units=1, activation=None, kernel_initializer=tf.zeros_initializer(), bias_initializer=tf.zeros_initializer() ) def call(self, input): output = self.dense(input) return output # 以下代码结构与前节类似 model = Linear() optimizer = tf.keras.optimizers.SGD(learning_rate=0.01) for i in range(100): with tf.GradientTape() as tape: y_pred = model(X) # 调用模型 y_pred = model(X) 而不是显式写出 y_pred = a * X + b loss = tf.reduce_mean(tf.square(y_pred - y)) grads = tape.gradient(loss, model.variables) # 使用 model.variables 这一属性直接获得模型中的所有变量 optimizer.apply_gradients(grads_and_vars=zip(grads, model.variables)) print(model.variables)\nHere, instead of explicitly declaring two variables\nb and writing the linear transformation\ny_pred = a * X + b, we create a model class\nLinear that inherits\ntf.keras.Model. This class instantiates a fully connected layer (\ntf.keras.layers.Dense`) in the constructor, and calls this layer in the call method, implementing the calculation of the linear transformation. If you need to explicitly declare your own variables and use them for custom operations, or want to understand the inner workings of the Keras layer, see Custom Layer.\nFully connection layer in Keras: linear transformation + activation function\nFully-connected Layer (\ntf.keras.layers.Dense) is one of the most basic and commonly used layers in Keras, which performs a linear transformation and activation on the input matrix . If the activation function is not specified, it is a purely linear transformation . Specifically, for a given input tensor\ninput = [match_size, input_dim] , the layer first performs a linear transformation on the input tensor\ntf.matmul(input, kernel) + bias (\nbias are trainable variables in the layer), and then apply the activation function\nactivation on each element of the linearly transformed tensor, thereby outputting a two-dimensional tensor with shape\ntf.keras.layers.Dense contains the following main parameters.\nunits: the dimension of the output tensor.\nactivation: the activation function, corresponding to in (Default: no activation). Commonly used activation functions include\nuse_bias: whether to add the bias vector\nbias, i.e. in (Default:\nbias_initializer: initializer of the two variables, the weight matrix\nkerneland the bias vector\nbias. The default is\ntf.glorot_uniform_initializer1. Set them to\ntf.zeros_initializermeans that both variables are initialized to zero tensors.\nThis layer contains two trainable variables, the weight matrix\nkernel = [input_dim, units] and the bias vector\nbias = [bits] 2 , corresponding to and in .\nThe fully connected layer is described here with emphasis on mathematical matrix operations. A description of neuron-based modeling can be found here.\nMany layers in Keras use\ntf.glorot_uniform_initializerby default to initialize variables, which can be found at https://www.tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/tf/glorot_uniform_initializer.\nYou may notice that\ntf.matmul(input, kernel)results in a two-dimensional matrix with shape\n[batch_size, units]. How is this two-dimensional matrix to be added to the one-dimensional bias vector\n[units]? In fact, here is TensorFlow’s Broadcasting mechanism at work. The add operation is equivalent to adding\nbiasto each row of the two-dimensional matrix. A detailed description of the Broadcasting mechanism can be found at https://www.tensorflow.org/xla/broadcasting.\nWhy is the model class override\ncall() instead of\nIn Python, a call to an instance of a class\nmyClass(params)) is equivalent to\nmyClass.__call__(params) (see the\n__call__() part of “Prerequisite” at the beginning of this chapter). Then in order to call the model using\ny_pred = model(X), it seems that one should override the\n__call__() method instead of\ncall(). Why we do the opposite? The reason is that Keras still needs to have some pre-processing and post-processing for the model call, so it is more reasonable to expose a\ncall() method specifically for overriding. The parent class\ntf.keras.Model already contains the definition of\ncall() method is invoked in\n__call__() while some internal operations of the keras are also performed. Therefore, by inheriting the\ntf.keras.Model and overriding the\ncall() method, we can add the code of model call while maintaining the inner structure of Keras.\nBasic example: multi-layer perceptron (MLP)¶\nWe use the simplest multilayer perceptron (MLP), or “multilayer fully connected neural network” as an example to introduce the model building process in TensorFlow 2. In this section, we take the following steps\nAcquisition and pre-processing of datasets using\nModel construction using\nBuild model training process. Use\ntf.keras.losesto calculate loss functions and use\ntf.keras.optimizerto optimize models\nBuild model evaluation process. Use\ntf.keras.metricsto calculate assessment indicators (e.g., accuracy)\nBasic knowledges and principles\nThe Multi-Layer Neural Network section of the UFLDL tutorial.\n“Neural Networks Part 1 ~ 3” section of the Stanford course CS231n: Convolutional Neural Networks for Visual Recognition.\nHere, we use a multilayer perceptron to tackle the classification task on the MNIST handwritten digit dataset [LeCun1998].\nData acquisition and pre-processing with\nTo prepare the data, we first implement a simple\nMNISTLoader class to read data from the MNIST dataset.\ntf.keras.datasets are used here to simplify the download and loading process of MNIST dataset.\nclass MNISTLoader(): def __init__(self): mnist = tf.keras.datasets.mnist (self.train_data, self.train_label), (self.test_data, self.test_label) = mnist.load_data() # MNIST中的图像默认为uint8（0-255的数字）。以下代码将其归一化到0-1之间的浮点数，并在最后增加一维作为颜色通道 self.train_data = np.expand_dims(self.train_data.astype(np.float32) / 255.0, axis=-1) # [60000, 28, 28, 1] self.test_data = np.expand_dims(self.test_data.astype(np.float32) / 255.0, axis=-1) # [10000, 28, 28, 1] self.train_label = self.train_label.astype(np.int32) #  self.test_label = self.test_label.astype(np.int32) #  self.num_train_data, self.num_test_data = self.train_data.shape, self.test_data.shape def get_batch(self, batch_size): # 从数据集中随机取出batch_size个元素并返回 index = np.random.randint(0, self.num_train_data, batch_size) return self.train_data[index, :], self.train_label[index]\nmnist = tf.keras.datasets.mnist will automatically download and load the MNIST data set from the Internet. If a network connection error occurs at runtime, you can download the MNIST dataset\nmnist.npz manually from https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/tf-keras-datasets/mnist.npz or https://s3.amazonaws.com/img-datasets/mnist.npz ,and move it into the\n.keras/dataset directory of the user directory (\nC:\\Users\\USERNAME for Windows and\n/home/USERNAME for Linux).\nImage data representation in TensorFlow\nIn TensorFlow, a typical representation of an image data set is a four-dimensional tensor of\n[number of images, width, height, number of color channels]. In the\nDataLoader class above,\nself.test_data were loaded with 60,000 and 10,000 handwritten digit images of size\n28*28, respectively. Since we are reading a grayscale image here with only one color channel (a regular RGB color image has 3 color channels), we use the\nnp.expand_dims() function to manually add one dimensional channels at the last dimension for the image data.\nModel construction with\nThe implementation of the multi-layer perceptron is similar to the linear model above, constructed using\ntf.keras.layers, except that the number of layers is increased (as the name implies, “multi-layer” perceptron), and a non-linear activation function is introduced (here we use the ReLU function activation function, i.e.\nactivation=tf.nn.relu below). The model accepts a vector (e.g. here a flattened\n1×784 handwritten digit image) as input and outputs a 10-dimensional vector representing the probability that this image belongs to 0 to 9 respectively.\nclass MLP(tf.keras.Model): def __init__(self): super().__init__() self.flatten = tf.keras.layers.Flatten() # Flatten层将除第一维（batch_size）以外的维度展平 self.dense1 = tf.keras.layers.Dense(units=100, activation=tf.nn.relu) self.dense2 = tf.keras.layers.Dense(units=10) def call(self, inputs): # [batch_size, 28, 28, 1] x = self.flatten(inputs) # [batch_size, 784] x = self.dense1(x) # [batch_size, 100] x = self.dense2(x) # [batch_size, 10] output = tf.nn.softmax(x) return output\nHere, because we want to output the probabilities that the input images belongs to 0 to 9 respectively, i.e. a 10-dimensional discrete probability distribution, we want this 10-dimensional vector to satisfy at least two conditions.\nEach element in the vector is between .\nThe sum of all elements of the vector is 1.\nTo ensure the output of the model to always satisfy both conditions, we normalize the raw output of the model using the Softmax function (normalized exponential function,\ntf.nn.softmax). Its mathematical form is . Not only that, the softmax function is able to highlight the largest value in the original vector and suppress other components that are far below the maximum, which is why it is called the softmax function (that is, the smoothed argmax function).\nModel training with\nTo train the model, first we define some hyperparameters of the model used in training process\nnum_epochs = 5 batch_size = 50 learning_rate = 0.001\nThen, we instantiate the model and data reading classes, and instantiate an optimizer in\ntf.keras.optimizer (the Adam optimizer is used here).\nmodel = MLP() data_loader = MNISTLoader() optimizer = tf.keras.optimizers.Adam(learning_rate=learning_rate)\nThe following steps are then iterated.\nA random batch of training data is taken from the DataLoader.\nFeed the data into the model, and obtain the predicted value from the model.\nCalculate the loss function (\nloss) by comparing the model predicted value with the true value. Here we use the cross-entropy function in\ntf.keras.lossesas a loss function.\nCalculate the derivative of the loss function on the model variables (gradients).\nThe derivative values (gradients) are passed into the optimizer, and use the\napply_gradientsmethod to update the model variables so that the loss value is minimized (see previous chapter for details on how to use the optimizer).\nThe code is as follows\nnum_batches = int(data_loader.num_train_data // batch_size * num_epochs) for batch_index in range(num_batches): X, y = data_loader.get_batch(batch_size) with tf.GradientTape() as tape: y_pred = model(X) loss = tf.keras.losses.sparse_categorical_crossentropy(y_true=y, y_pred=y_pred) loss = tf.reduce_mean(loss) print(\"batch %d: loss %f\" % (batch_index, loss.numpy())) grads = tape.gradient(loss, model.variables) optimizer.apply_gradients(grads_and_vars=zip(grads, model.variables))\nCross entropy and\nYou may notice that, instead of explicitly writing a loss function, we use the\nsparse_categorical_crossentropy (cross entropy) function in\ntf.keras.losses. We pass the model predicted value\ny_pred and the real value\ny_true into the function as parameters, then this Keras function helps us calculate the loss value.\nCross-entropy is widely used as a loss function in classification problems. The discrete form is , where is the true probability distribution, is the predicted probability distribution, and is the number of categories in the classification task. The closer the predicted probability distribution is to the true distribution, the smaller the value of the cross-entropy, and vice versa. A more specific introduction and its application to machine learning can be found in this blog post.\ntf.keras, there are two cross-entropy related loss functions\ntf.keras.losses.sparse_categorical_crossentropy. Here “sparse” means that the true label value\ny_true can be passed directly into the function as integer. That means,\nloss = tf.keras.losses.sparse_categorical_crossentropy(y_true=y, y_pred=y_pred)\nis equivalent to\nloss = tf.keras.losses.categorical_crossentropy( y_true=tf.one_hot(y, depth=tf.shape(y_pred)[-1]), y_pred=y_pred )\nModel Evaluation with\nFinally, we use the test set to evaluate the performance of the model. Here, we use the\nSparseCategoricalAccuracy metric in\ntf.keras.metrics to evaluate the performance of the model on the test set, which compares the results predicted by the model with the true results, and outputs the proportion of the test data samples that is correctly classified by the model. We do evaluatio iteratively on the test set, feeding the results predicted by the model and the true results into the metric instance each time by the\nupdate_state() method, with two parameters\ny_true respectively. The metric instance has internal variables to maintain the values associated with the current evaluation process (e.g., the current cumulative number of samples that has been passed in and the current number of samples that predicts correctly). At the end of the iteration, we use the\nresult() method to output the final evaluation value (the proportion of the correctly classified samples over the total samples).\nIn the following code, we instantiate a\ntf.keras.metrics.SparseCategoricalAccuracy metric, use a for loop to feed the predicted and true results iteratively, and output the accuracy of the trained model on the test set.\nsparse_categorical_accuracy = tf.keras.metrics.SparseCategoricalAccuracy() num_batches = int(data_loader.num_test_data // batch_size) for batch_index in range(num_batches): start_index, end_index = batch_index * batch_size, (batch_index + 1) * batch_size y_pred = model.predict(data_loader.test_data[start_index: end_index]) sparse_categorical_accuracy.update_state(y_true=data_loader.test_label[start_index: end_index], y_pred=y_pred) print(\"test accuracy: %f\" % sparse_categorical_accuracy.result())\ntest accuracy: 0.947900\nIt can be noted that we can reach an accuracy rate of around 95% just using such a simple model.\nThe basic unit of a neural network: the neuron 3\nIf we take a closer look at the neural network above and study the computational process in detail, for example by taking the k-th computational unit of the second layer, we can get the following schematic\nThe computational unit has 100 weight parameters and 1 bias parameter . The values of of all 100 computational units in layer 1 are taken as inputs, summed by weight (i.e. ) and biased by , then it is fed into the activation function to get the output result.\nIn fact, this structure is quite similar to real nerve cells (neurons). Neurons are composed of dendrites, cytosomes and axons. Dendrites receive signals from other neurons as input (one neuron can have thousands or even tens of thousands of dendrites), the cell body integrates the potential signal, and the resulting signal travels through axons to synapses at nerve endings and propagates to the next (or more) neuron.\nThe computational unit above can be viewed as a mathematical modeling of neuronal structure. In the above example, each computational unit (artificial neuron) in the second layer has 100 weight parameters and 1 bias parameter, while the number of computational units in the second layer is 10, so the total number of participants in this fully connected layer is 100*10 weight parameters and 10 bias parameters. In fact, this is the shape of the two variables\nbias in this fully connected layer. Upon closer examination, you will see that the introduction to neuron-based modeling here is equivalent to the introduction to matrix-based computing above.\nActually, there should be the concept of neuronal modeling first, followed by artificial neural networks based on artificial neurons and layer structures. However, since this manual focuses on how to use TensorFlow, the order of introduction is switched.\nConvolutional Neural Network (CNN)¶\nConvolutional Neural Network (CNN) is an artificial neural network with a structure similar to the visual system of a human or animal, that contains one or more Convolutional Layer, Pooling Layer and Fully-connected Layer.\nBasic knowledges and principles\nConvolutional Neural Network in UFLDL Tutorial\n“Module 2: Convolutional Neural Networks” in Stanford course CS231n: Convolutional Neural Networks for Visual Recognition\n“Convolutional Neural Networks” in Dive into Deep Learning\nImplementing Convolutional Neural Networks with Keras¶\nAn example implementation of a convolutional neural network is shown below. The code structure is similar to the multi-layer perceptron in the previous section, except that some new convolutional and pooling layers are added. The network structure here is not unique: the layers in the CNN can be added, removed or adjusted for better performance.\nclass CNN(tf.keras.Model): def __init__(self): super().__init__() self.conv1 = tf.keras.layers.Conv2D( filters=32, # 卷积层神经元（卷积核）数目 kernel_size=[5, 5], # 感受野大小 padding='same', # padding策略（vaild 或 same） activation=tf.nn.relu # 激活函数 ) self.pool1 = tf.keras.layers.MaxPool2D(pool_size=[2, 2], strides=2) self.conv2 = tf.keras.layers.Conv2D( filters=64, kernel_size=[5, 5], padding='same', activation=tf.nn.relu ) self.pool2 = tf.keras.layers.MaxPool2D(pool_size=[2, 2], strides=2) self.flatten = tf.keras.layers.Reshape(target_shape=(7 * 7 * 64,)) self.dense1 = tf.keras.layers.Dense(units=1024, activation=tf.nn.relu) self.dense2 = tf.keras.layers.Dense(units=10) def call(self, inputs): x = self.conv1(inputs) # [batch_size, 28, 28, 32] x = self.pool1(x) # [batch_size, 14, 14, 32] x = self.conv2(x) # [batch_size, 14, 14, 64] x = self.pool2(x) # [batch_size, 7, 7, 64] x = self.flatten(x) # [batch_size, 7 * 7 * 64] x = self.dense1(x) # [batch_size, 1024] x = self.dense2(x) # [batch_size, 10] output = tf.nn.softmax(x) return output\nReplace the code line\nmodel = MLP() in previous MLP section to\nmodel = CNN() , the output will be as follows:\ntest accuracy: 0.988100\nA very significant improvement of accuracy can be found compared to MLP in the previous section. In fact, there is still room for further improvements by changing the network structure of the model (e.g. by adding a Dropout layer to prevent overfitting).\nUsing predefined classical CNN structures in Keras¶\nThere are some pre-defined classical convolutional neural network structures in\ntf.keras.applications, such as\nMobileNet. We can directly apply these classical convolutional neural network (and load pre-trained weights) without manually defining the CNN structure.\nFor example, we can use the following code to instantiate a\nMobileNetV2 network structure.\nmodel = tf.keras.applications.MobileNetV2()\nWhen the above code is executed, TensorFlow will automatically download the pre-trained weights of the\nMobileNetV2 network, so Internet connection is required for the first execution of the code. You can also initialize variables randomly by setting the parameter\nNone. Each network structure has its own specific detailed parameter settings. Some shared common parameters are as follows.\ninput_shape: the shape of the input tensor (without the first batch dimension), which mostly defaults to\n224 × 224 × 3. In general, models have lower bounds on the size of the input tensor, with a minimum length and width of\n32 × 32or\n75 × 75.\ninclude_top: whether the fully-connected layer is included at the end of the network, which defaults to\nweights: pre-trained weights, which default to\nimagenet(using pre-trained weights trained on ImageNet dataset). It can be set to\nNoneif you want to randomly initialize the variables.\nclasses: the number of classes, which defaults to 1000. If you want to modify this parameter, the\ninclude_topparameter has to be\nweightsparameter has to be\nA detailed description of each network model parameter can be found in the Keras documentation.\nSet learning phase\nFor some pre-defined classical models, some of the layers (e.g.\nBatchNormalization) behave differently on training and testing stage (see this article). Therefore, when training this kind of model, you need to set the learning phase manually, telling the model “I am in the training stage of the model”. This can be done through\nor by setting the\ntraining parameter to\nTrue when the model is called.\nAn example is shown below, using\nMobileNetV2 network to train on\ntf_flowers five-classifying datasets (for the sake of code brevity and efficiency, we use TensorFlow Datasets and tf.data to load and preprocess the data in this example). Also we set\nclasses to 5, corresponding to the\ntf_flowers dataset with 5 kind of labels.\nimport tensorflow as tf import tensorflow_datasets as tfds num_epoch = 5 batch_size = 50 learning_rate = 0.001 dataset = tfds.load(\"tf_flowers\", split=tfds.Split.TRAIN, as_supervised=True) dataset = dataset.map(lambda img, label: (tf.image.resize(img, (224, 224)) / 255.0, label)).shuffle(1024).batch(batch_size) model = tf.keras.applications.MobileNetV2(weights=None, classes=5) optimizer = tf.keras.optimizers.Adam(learning_rate=learning_rate) for e in range(num_epoch): for images, labels in dataset: with tf.GradientTape() as tape: labels_pred = model(images, training=True) loss = tf.keras.losses.sparse_categorical_crossentropy(y_true=labels, y_pred=labels_pred) loss = tf.reduce_mean(loss) print(\"loss %f\" % loss.numpy()) grads = tape.gradient(loss, model.trainable_variables) optimizer.apply_gradients(grads_and_vars=zip(grads, model.trainable_variables)) print(labels_pred)\nIn later sections (e.g. Distributed Training), we will also directly use these classicial network structures for training.\nHow the Convolutional and Pooling Layers Work\nThe Convolutional Layer, represented by\ntf.keras.layers.Conv2D in Keras, is a core component of CNN and has a structure similar to the visual cortex of the brain.\nRecall our previously established computational model of neurons and the fully-connected layer, in which we let each neuron connect to all other neurons in the previous layer. However, this is not the case in the visual cortex. You may have learned in biology class about the concept of Receptive Field, where neurons in the visual cortex are not connected to all the neurons in the previous layer, but only sense visual signals in an area and respond only to visual stimuli in the local area.\nFor example, the following figure is a 7×7 single-channel image signal input.\nIf we use the MLP model based on fully-connected layers, we need to make each input signal correspond to a weight value. In this case, modeling a neuron requires 7×7=49 weights (50 if we consider the bias) to get an output signal. If there are N neurons in a layer, we need 49N weights and get N output signals.\nIn the convolutional layer of CNN, we model a neuron in a convolutional layer like this.\nThe 3×3 red box in the figure represents the receptor field of this neuron. In this case, we only need a 3×3 weight matrix with an additional bias to get an output signal. E.g., for the red box shown in the figure, the output is the sum of all elements of matrix adding bias , noted as .\nHowever, the 3×3 range is clearly not enough to handle the entire image, so we use the sliding window approach. Use the same parameter but swipe the red box from left to right in the image, scanning it line by line, calculating a value for each position it slides to. For example, when the red box moves one unit to the right, we calculate the sum of all elements of the matrix , adding bias , noted as . Thus, unlike normal neurons that can only output one value, the convolutional neurons here can output a 5×5 matrix .\nIn the following part, we use TensorFlow to verify the results of the above calculation.\nThe input image, the weight matrix and the bias term in the above figure are represented as the NumPy array\nb as follows.\n# TensorFlow 的图像表示为 [图像数目，长，宽，色彩通道数] 的四维张量 # 这里我们的输入图像 image 的张量形状为 [1, 7, 7, 1] image = np.array([[ [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 1, 0, 1, 2, 1, 0], [0, 0, 2, 2, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 1, 0, 2, 1, 0], [0, 0, 2, 1, 1, 0, 0], [0, 2, 1, 1, 2, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0] ]], dtype=np.float32) image = np.expand_dims(image, axis=-1) W = np.array([[ [ 0, 0, -1], [ 0, 1, 0 ], [-2, 0, 2 ] ]], dtype=np.float32) b = np.array(, dtype=np.float32)\nThen, we build a model with only one convolutional layer, initialized by\nb 4 ：\nmodel = tf.keras.models.Sequential([ tf.keras.layers.Conv2D( filters=1, # 卷积层神经元（卷积核）数目 kernel_size=[3, 3], # 感受野大小 kernel_initializer=tf.constant_initializer(W), bias_initializer=tf.constant_initializer(b) )] )\nFinally, feed the image data\nimage into the model and print the output.\noutput = model(image) print(tf.squeeze(output))\nThe result will be\ntf.Tensor( [[ 6. 5. -2. 1. 2.] [ 3. 0. 3. 2. -2.] [ 4. 2. -1. 0. 0.] [ 2. 1. 2. -1. -3.] [ 1. 1. 1. 3. 1.]], shape=(5, 5), dtype=float32)\nYou can find out that this result is consistent with the value of the matrix in the figure above.\nOne more question, the above convolution process assumes that the images only have one channel (e.g. grayscale images), but what if the image is in color (e.g. has three channels of RGB)? Actually, we can prepare a 3×3 weight matrix for each channel, i.e. there are 3×3×3=27 weights in total. Each channel is processed using its own weight matrix, and the output can be summed by adding the values from multiple channels.\nSome readers may notice that, following the method described above, the result after each convolution will be “one pixel shrinked” around. The 7×7 image above, for example, becomes 5×5 after convolution, which sometimes causes problems to the forthcoming layers. Therefore, we can set the padding strategy. In\ntf.keras.layers.Conv2D, when we set the\npadding parameter to\nsame, the missing pixels around it are filled with 0, so that the size of the output matches the input.\nFinally, since we can use the sliding window method to do convolution, can we set a different step size for the slide? The answer is yes. The step size (default is 1) can be set using the\nstrides parameter of\ntf.keras.layers.Conv2D. For example, in the above example, if we set the step length to 2, the output will be a 3×3 matrix.\nIn fact, there are many forms of convolution, and the above introduction is only one of the simplest one. Further examples of the convolutional approach can be found in Convolution Arithmetic.\nThe Pooling Layer is much simpler to understand as the process of downsampling an image, outputting the maximum value (MaxPooling), the mean value, or the value generated by other methods for all values in the window for each slide. For example, for a three-channel 16×16 image (i.e., a tensor of\n16*16*3), a tensor of\n8*8*3 is obtained after a pooled layer with a receptive field of 2×2 and a slide step of 2.\nHere we use the sequential mode to build the model for simplicity, as described later .\nRecurrent Neural Network (RNN)¶\nRecurrent Neural Network (RNN) is a type of neural network suitable for processing sequence data (especially text). It is widely used in language models, text generation and machine translation.\nBasic knowledges and principles\nRecurrent Neural Networks Tutorial, Part 1 – Introduction to RNNs\n“Recurrent Neural Networks” in Dive into Deep Learning。\nRNN sequence generation: [Graves2013]\nHere, we use RNN to generate Nietzschean-style text automatically. 5\nThe essence of this task is to predict the probability distribution of an English sentence’s successive character. For example, we have the following sentence:\nI am a studen\nThis sentence (sequence) has a total of 13 characters including spaces. When we read this sequence of 13 characters, we can predict based on our experience, that the next character is “t” with a high probability. Now we want to build a model to do the same thing as our experience, in which we input a sequence of\nseq_length one by one, and output the probability distribution of the next character that follows this sentence. Then we can generate text by sampling a character from the probability distribution as a predictive value, then do snowballing to generate the next two characters, the next three characters, etc.\nFirst of all, we implement a simple\nDataLoader class to read training corpus (Nietzsche’s work) and encode it in characters. Each character is assigned a unique integer number i between 0 and\nnum_chars - 1, in which\nnum_chars is the number of character types.\nclass DataLoader(): def __init__(self): path = tf.keras.utils.get_file('nietzsche.txt', origin='https://s3.amazonaws.com/text-datasets/nietzsche.txt') with open(path, encoding='utf-8') as f: self.raw_text = f.read().lower() self.chars = sorted(list(set(self.raw_text))) self.char_indices = dict((c, i) for i, c in enumerate(self.chars)) self.indices_char = dict((i, c) for i, c in enumerate(self.chars)) self.text = [self.char_indices[c] for c in self.raw_text] def get_batch(self, seq_length, batch_size): seq =  next_char =  for i in range(batch_size): index = np.random.randint(0, len(self.text) - seq_length) seq.append(self.text[index:index+seq_length]) next_char.append(self.text[index+seq_length]) return np.array(seq), np.array(next_char) # [batch_size, seq_length], [num_batch]\nThe model implementation is carried out next. In the constructor (\n__init__ method), we instantiate a\nLSTMCell unit and a fully connected layer. in\ncall method, We first perform a “One Hot” operation on the sequence, i.e., we transform the encoding i of each character in the sequence into a\nnum_char dimensional vector with bit i being 1 and the rest being 0. The transformed sequence tensor has a shape of\n[seq_length, num_chars] . We then initialize the state of the RNN unit. Next, the characters of the sequence is fed into the RNN unit one by one. At moment t, the state of RNN unit\nstate in the previous time step\nt-1 and the t-th element of the sequence\ninputs[t, :] are fed into the RNN unit, to get the output\noutput and the RNN unit state in the current time step\nt. The last output of the RNN unit is taken and transformed through the fully connected layer to\nThe code implementation is like this\nclass RNN(tf.keras.Model): def __init__(self, num_chars, batch_size, seq_length): super().__init__() self.num_chars = num_chars self.seq_length = seq_length self.batch_size = batch_size self.cell = tf.keras.layers.LSTMCell(units=256) self.dense = tf.keras.layers.Dense(units=self.num_chars) def call(self, inputs, from_logits=False): inputs = tf.one_hot(inputs, depth=self.num_chars) # [batch_size, seq_length, num_chars] state = self.cell.get_initial_state(batch_size=self.batch_size, dtype=tf.float32) # 获得 RNN 的初始状态 for t in range(self.seq_length): output, state = self.cell(inputs[:, t, :], state) # 通过当前输入和前一时刻的状态，得到输出和当前时刻的状态 logits = self.dense(output) if from_logits: # from_logits 参数控制输出是否通过 softmax 函数进行归一化 return logits else: return tf.nn.softmax(logits)\nDefining some hyperparameters of the model\nnum_batches = 1000 seq_length = 40 batch_size = 50 learning_rate = 1e-3\nThe training process is very similar to the previous section. Here we just repeat it:\nA random batch of training data is taken from the DataLoader.\nFeed the data into the model, and obtain the predicted value from the model.\nCalculate the loss function (\nloss) by comparing the model predicted value with the true value. Here we use the cross-entropy function in\ntf.keras.lossesas a loss function.\nCalculate the derivative of the loss function on the model variables (gradients).\nThe derivative values (gradients) are passed into the optimizer, and use the\napply_gradientsmethod to update the model variables so that the loss value is minimized.\ndata_loader = DataLoader() model = RNN(num_chars=len(data_loader.chars), batch_size=batch_size, seq_length=seq_length) optimizer = tf.keras.optimizers.Adam(learning_rate=learning_rate) for batch_index in range(num_batches): X, y = data_loader.get_batch(seq_length, batch_size) with tf.GradientTape() as tape: y_pred = model(X) loss = tf.keras.losses.sparse_categorical_crossentropy(y_true=y, y_pred=y_pred) loss = tf.reduce_mean(loss) print(\"batch %d: loss %f\" % (batch_index, loss.numpy())) grads = tape.gradient(loss, model.variables) optimizer.apply_gradients(grads_and_vars=zip(grads, model.variables))\nOne thing about the process of text generation requires special attention. Previously, we have been using the\ntf.argmax() function, which takes the value corresponding to the maximum probability as the predicted value. For text generation, however, such predictions are too “absolute” and can make the generated text lose its richness. Thus, we use the\nnp.random.choice() function to sample the resulting probability distribution. In this way, even characters that correspond to a small probability have a chance of being sampled. At the same time, we add a\ntemperature parameter to control the shape of the distribution, the larger the parameter value, the smoother the distribution (the smaller the difference between the maximum and minimum values), the higher the richness of the generated text; the smaller the parameter value, the steeper the distribution, the lower the richness of the generated text.\ndef predict(self, inputs, temperature=1.): batch_size, _ = tf.shape(inputs) logits = self(inputs, from_logits=True) # 调用训练好的RNN模型，预测下一个字符的概率分布 prob = tf.nn.softmax(logits / temperature).numpy() # 使用带 temperature 参数的 softmax 函数获得归一化的概率分布值 return np.array([np.random.choice(self.num_chars, p=prob[i, :]) # 使用 np.random.choice 函数， for i in range(batch_size.numpy())]) # 在预测的概率分布 prob 上进行随机取样\nThrough a contineous prediction of characters, we can get the automatically generated text.\nX_, _ = data_loader.get_batch(seq_length, 1) for diversity in [0.2, 0.5, 1.0, 1.2]: # 丰富度（即temperature）分别设置为从小到大的 4 个值 X = X_ print(\"diversity %f:\" % diversity) for t in range(400): y_pred = model.predict(X, diversity) # 预测下一个字符的编号 print(data_loader.indices_char[y_pred], end='', flush=True) # 输出预测的字符 X = np.concatenate([X[:, 1:], np.expand_dims(y_pred, axis=1)], axis=-1) # 将预测的字符接在输入 X 的末尾，并截断 X 的第一个字符，以保证 X 的长度不变 print(\"\\n\")\nThe generated text is like follows:\ndiversity 0.200000: conserted and conseive to the conterned to it is a self--and seast and the selfes as a seast the expecience and and and the self--and the sered is a the enderself and the sersed and as a the concertion of the series of the self in the self--and the serse and and the seried enes and seast and the sense and the eadure to the self and the present and as a to the self--and the seligious and the enders diversity 0.500000: can is reast to as a seligut and the complesed has fool which the self as it is a the beasing and us immery and seese for entoured underself of the seless and the sired a mears and everyther to out every sone thes and reapres and seralise as a streed liees of the serse to pease the cersess of the selung the elie one of the were as we and man one were perser has persines and conceity of all self-el diversity 1.000000: entoles by their lisevers de weltaale, arh pesylmered, and so jejurted count have foursies as is descinty iamo; to semplization refold, we dancey or theicks-welf--atolitious on his such which here oth idey of pire master, ie gerw their endwit in ids, is an trees constenved mase commars is leed mad decemshime to the mor the elige. the fedies (byun their ope wopperfitious--antile and the it as the f diversity 1.200000: cain, elvotidue, madehoublesily inselfy!--ie the rads incults of to prusely le]enfes patuateded:.--a coud--theiritibaior \"nrallysengleswout peessparify oonsgoscess teemind thenry ansken suprerial mus, cigitioum: 4reas. whouph: who eved arn inneves to sya\" natorne. hag open reals whicame oderedte,[fingo is zisternethta simalfule dereeg hesls lang-lyes thas quiin turjentimy; periaspedey tomm--whach\nHere we referenced https://github.com/keras-team/keras/blob/master/examples/lstm_text_generation.py\nThe working process of recurrent neural networks\nRecurrent neural network is a kind of neural network designed to process time series data. To understand the working process of RNN, we need to have a timeline in our mind. The RNN unit has an initial state at initial time step 0, then at each time step , the RNN unit process the current input , modifies its own state , and outputs .\nThe core of RNN is the state , which is a vector of fixed dimensions, regarded as the “memory” of RNN. At the initial moment of , is given an initial value (usually a zero vector). We then describe the working process of RNN in a recursive way. That is, at the moment , we assume that is known, and focus on how to calculate based on the input and the previous state.\nLinear transformation of the input vector through the matrix . The result has the same dimension as the state s.\nLinear transformation of through the matrix . The result has the same dimension as the state s.\nThe two vectors obtained above are summed and passed through the activation function as the value of the current state , i.e. . That is, the value of the current state is the result of non-linear information combination of the previous state and the current input.\nLinear transformation of the current state through the matrix to get the output of the current moment .\nWe assume the dimension of the input vector , the state and the output vector are , and respectively, then , , .\nThe above is an introduction to the most basic RNN type. In practice, some improved version of RNN are often used, such as LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory Neural Network, which solves the problem of gradient disappearance for longer sequences), GRU, etc.\nDeep Reinforcement Learning (DRL)¶\nReinforcement learning (RL) emphasizes how to act based on the environment in order to maximize the intended benefits. With deep learning techniques combined, Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) is a powerful tool to solve decision tasks. AlphaGo, which has become widely known in recent years, is a typical application of deep reinforcement learning.\nYou may want to read Introduction to Reinforcement Learning in the appendix to get some basic ideas of reinforcement learning.\nHere, we use deep reinforcement learning to learn to play CartPole (inverted pendulum). The inverted pendulum is a classic problem in cybernetics. In this task, the bottom of a pole is connected to a cart through an axle, and the pole’s center of gravity is above the axle, making it an unstable system. Under the force of gravity, the pole falls down easily. We need to control the cart to move left and right on a horizontal track to keep the pole in vertical balance.\nWe use the CartPole game environment from OpenAI’s Gym Environment Library, which can be installed using\npip install gym, the installation steps and tutorials can be found in the official documentation and here. The interaction with Gym is very much like a turn-based game. We first get the initial state of the game (such as the initial angle of the pole and the position of the cart), then in each turn t, we need to choose one of the currently feasible actions and send it to Gym to execute (such as pushing the cart to the left or to the right, only one of the two actions can be chosen in each turn). After executing the action, Gym will return the next state after the action is executed and the reward value obtained in the current turn (for example, after we choose to push the cart to the left and execute, the cart position is more to the left and the angle of the pole is more to the right, Gym will return the new angle and position to us. if the pole still doesn’t go down on this round, Gym returns us a small positive reward simultaneously). This process can iterate on and on until the game ends (e.g. the pole goes down). In Python, the sample code to use Gym is as follows.\nimport gym env = gym.make('CartPole-v1') # Instantiate a game environment with the game name state = env.reset() # Initialize the environment, get the initial state while True: env.render() # Render the current frame and draw it to the screen. action = model.predict(state) # Suppose we have a trained model that can predict what action should be performed at this time from the current state next_state, reward, done, info = env.step(action) # Let the environment execute the action, get the next state of the executed action, the reward for the action, whether the game is over and additional information if done: # Exit loop if game over break\nNow, our task is to train a model that can predict a good move based on the current state. Roughly speaking, a good move should maximize the sum of the rewards earned throughout the game, which is the goal of reinforcement learning. In the CartPole game, the goal is to make the right moves to keep the pole from falling, i.e. as many rounds of game interaction as possible. In each round, we get a small positive bonus, and the more rounds the higher the cumulative bonus value. Thus, maximizing the sum of the rewards is consistent with our ultimate goal.\nThe following code shows how to train the model using the Deep Q-Learning method [Mnih2013] , a classical Deep Reinforcement Learning algorithm. First, we import TensorFlow, Gym and some common libraries, and define some model hyperparameters.\nimport tensorflow as tf import numpy as np import gym import random from collections import deque num_episodes = 500 # 游戏训练的总episode数量 num_exploration_episodes = 100 # 探索过程所占的episode数量 max_len_episode = 1000 # 每个episode的最大回合数 batch_size = 32 # 批次大小 learning_rate = 1e-3 # 学习率 gamma = 1. # 折扣因子 initial_epsilon = 1. # 探索起始时的探索率 final_epsilon = 0.01 # 探索终止时的探索率\nWe then use\ntf.keras.Model` to build a Q-network for fitting the Q functions in Q-Learning algorithm. Here we use a simple multilayered fully connected neural network for fitting. The network use the current state as input and outputs the Q-value for each action (2-dimensional for CartPole, i.e. pushing the cart left and right).\nclass QNetwork(tf.keras.Model): def __init__(self): super().__init__() self.dense1 = tf.keras.layers.Dense(units=24, activation=tf.nn.relu) self.dense2 = tf.keras.layers.Dense(units=24, activation=tf.nn.relu) self.dense3 = tf.keras.layers.Dense(units=2) def call(self, inputs): x = self.dense1(inputs) x = self.dense2(x) x = self.dense3(x) return x def predict(self, inputs): q_values = self(inputs)\nFinally, we implement the Q-learning algorithm in the main program.\nif __name__ == '__main__': env = gym.make('CartPole-v1') # 实例化一个游戏环境，参数为游戏名称 model = QNetwork() optimizer = tf.keras.optimizers.Adam(learning_rate=learning_rate) replay_buffer = deque(maxlen=10000) # 使用一个 deque 作为 Q Learning 的经验回放池 epsilon = initial_epsilon for episode_id in range(num_episodes): state = env.reset() # 初始化环境，获得初始状态 epsilon = max( # 计算当前探索率 initial_epsilon * (num_exploration_episodes - episode_id) / num_exploration_episodes, final_epsilon) for t in range(max_len_episode): env.render() # 对当前帧进行渲染，绘图到屏幕 if random.random() < epsilon: # epsilon-greedy 探索策略，以 epsilon 的概率选择随机动作 action = env.action_space.sample() # 选择随机动作（探索） else: action = model.predict(np.expand_dims(state, axis=0)).numpy() # 选择模型计算出的 Q Value 最大的动作 action = action # 让环境执行动作，获得执行完动作的下一个状态，动作的奖励，游戏是否已结束以及额外信息 next_state, reward, done, info = env.step(action) # 如果游戏Game Over，给予大的负奖励 reward = -10. if done else reward # 将(state, action, reward, next_state)的四元组（外加 done 标签表示是否结束）放入经验回放池 replay_buffer.append((state, action, reward, next_state, 1 if done else 0)) # 更新当前 state state = next_state if done: # 游戏结束则退出本轮循环，进行下一个 episode print(\"episode %4d, epsilon %.4f, score %4d\" % (episode_id, epsilon, t)) break if len(replay_buffer) >= batch_size: # 从经验回放池中随机取一个批次的四元组，并分别转换为 NumPy 数组 batch_state, batch_action, batch_reward, batch_next_state, batch_done = \\ map(np.array, zip(*random.sample(replay_buffer, batch_size))) q_value = model(batch_next_state) y = batch_reward + (gamma * tf.reduce_max(q_value, axis=1)) * (1 - batch_done) # 计算 y 值 with tf.GradientTape() as tape: loss = tf.keras.losses.mean_squared_error( # 最小化 y 和 Q-value 的距离 y_true=y, y_pred=tf.reduce_sum(model(batch_state) * tf.one_hot(batch_action, depth=2), axis=1) ) grads = tape.gradient(loss, model.variables) optimizer.apply_gradients(grads_and_vars=zip(grads, model.variables)) # 计算梯度并更新参数\nFor different tasks (or environments), we need to design different states and adopt appropriate networks to fit the Q function depending on the characteristics of the task. For example, if we consider the classic “Block Breaker” game (Breakout-v0 in the Gym environment library), every action performed (baffle moving to the left, right, or motionless) returns an RGB image of\n210 * 160 * 3 representing the current screen. In order to design a suitable state representation for this game, we have the following analysis.\nThe colour information of the bricks is not very important and the conversion of the image to grayscale does not affect the operation, so the colour information in the state can be removed (i.e. the image can be converted to grayscale).\nInformation on the movement of the ball is important. For CartPole, it is difficult for even a human being to judge the direction in which the baffle should move if only a single frame is known (so the direction in which the ball is moving is not known). Therefore, information that characterizes motion direction of the ball should be added to the state. A simple way is to stack the current frame with the previous frames to obtain a state representation of\n210 * 160 * X(X being the number of stacked frames).\nThe resolution of each frame does not need to be particularly high, as long as the position of the blocks, ball and baffle can be roughly characterized for decision-making purposes, so that the length and width of each frame can be compressed appropriately.\nConsidering that we need to extract features from the image information, using CNN as a network for fitting Q functions would be more appropriate. Based on the analysis, we can just replace the\nQNetwork model class above to a CNN-based model and make some changes for the status, then the same program can be used to play some simple video games like “Block Breaker”.\nKeras Pipeline *¶\nUntil now, all the examples are using Keras’ Subclassing API and customized training loop. That is, we inherit\ntf.keras.Model class to build our new model, while the process of training and evaluating the model is explicitly implemented by us. This approach is flexible and similar to other popular deep learning frameworks (e.g. PyTorch and Chainer), and is the approach recommended in this handbook. In many cases, however, we just need to build a neural network with a relatively simple and typical structure (e.g., MLP and CNN in the above section) and train it using conventional means. For these scenarios, Keras also give us another simpler and more efficient built-in way to build, train and evaluate models.\nUse Keras Sequential/Functional API to build models¶\nThe most typical and common neural network structure is to stack a bunch of layers in a specific order, so can we just provide a list of layers and have Keras automatically connect them head to tail to form a model? This is exactly what Keras Sequential API does. By providing a list of layers to\ntf.keras.models.Sequential(), we can quickly construct a\nmodel = tf.keras.models.Sequential([ tf.keras.layers.Flatten(), tf.keras.layers.Dense(100, activation=tf.nn.relu), tf.keras.layers.Dense(10), tf.keras.layers.Softmax() ])\nHowever, the sequential network structure is quite limited. Then Keras provides a more powerful functional API to help us build complex models, such as models with multiple inputs/outputs or where parameters are shared. This is done by using the layer as an invocable object and returning the tensor (which is consistent with the usage in the previous section). Then we can build a model by providing the input and output vectors to the\noutputs parameters of\ntf.keras.Model, as follows\ninputs = tf.keras.Input(shape=(28, 28, 1)) x = tf.keras.layers.Flatten()(inputs) x = tf.keras.layers.Dense(units=100, activation=tf.nn.relu)(x) x = tf.keras.layers.Dense(units=10)(x) outputs = tf.keras.layers.Softmax()(x) model = tf.keras.Model(inputs=inputs, outputs=outputs)\nTrain and evaluate models using the\nevaluate methods of Keras¶\nWhen the model has been built, the training process can be configured through the\ncompile method of\nmodel.compile( optimizer=tf.keras.optimizers.Adam(learning_rate=0.001), loss=tf.keras.losses.sparse_categorical_crossentropy, metrics=[tf.keras.metrics.sparse_categorical_accuracy] )\ntf.keras.Model.compile accepts three important parameters.\noplimizer: an optimizer, can be selected from ``tf.keras.optimizers’’.\nloss: a loss function, can be selected from ``tf.keras.loses’’.\nmetrics: a metric, can be selected from\nfit method of\ntf.keras.Model can be used to actually train the model.\nmodel.fit(data_loader.train_data, data_loader.train_label, epochs=num_epochs, batch_size=batch_size)\ntf.keras.model.fit accepts five important parameters.\nx: training data.\ny: target data (labels of data).\nepochs: the number of iterations through training data.\nbatch_size: the size of the batch.\nvalidation_data: validation data that can be used to monitor the performance of the model during training.\ntf.data.Dataset as data source, detailed in tf.data.\nFinally, we can use\ntf.keras.Model.evaluate to evaluate the trained model, just by providing the test data and labels.\nCustom layers, losses and metrics *¶\nPerhaps you will also ask, what if these existing layers do not meet my requirements, and I need to define my own layers? In fact, we can inherit not only\ntf.keras.Model to write our own model classes, but also\ntf.keras.layers.Layer to write our own layers.\nThe custom layer requires inheriting the\ntf.keras.layers.Layer class and overriding the\ncall methods, as follows.\nclass MyLayer(tf.keras.layers.Layer): def __init__(self): super().__init__() # Initialization code def build(self, input_shape): # input_shape is a TensorShape object that provides the shape of the input # this part of the code will run at the first time you call this layer # you can create variables here so that the the shape of the variable is adaptive to the input shape # If the shape of the variable can already be fully determined without the infomation of input shape # you can also create the variable in the constructor (__init__) self.variable_0 = self.add_weight(...) self.variable_1 = self.add_weight(...) def call(self, inputs): # Code for model call (handles inputs and returns outputs) return output\nFor example, we can implement a fully-connected layer on our own with the following code. This code creates two variables in the\nbuild method and uses the created variables in the\nclass LinearLayer(tf.keras.layers.Layer): def __init__(self, units): super().__init__() self.units = units def build(self, input_shape): # 这里 input_shape 是第一次运行call()时参数inputs的形状 self.w = self.add_weight(name='w', shape=[input_shape[-1], self.units], initializer=tf.zeros_initializer()) self.b = self.add_weight(name='b', shape=[self.units], initializer=tf.zeros_initializer()) def call(self, inputs): y_pred = tf.matmul(inputs, self.w) + self.b return y_pred\nWhen defining a model, we can use our custom layer\nLinearLayer just like other pre-defined layers in Keras.\nclass LinearModel(tf.keras.Model): def __init__(self): super().__init__() self.layer = LinearLayer(units=1) def call(self, inputs): output = self.layer(inputs) return output\nCustom loss functions and metrics¶\nThe custom loss function needs to inherit the\ntf.keras.losses.Loss class and override the\ncall method. The\ncall method use the real value\ny_true and the model predicted value\ny_pred as input, and return the customized loss value between the model predicted value and the real value.

The gallery, opposite the hill’s famous figure of two white lions, was filled with colorful pieces by the artist, mostly featuring scenes from the Jataka tales. Accompanying the artwork were frames embedded with images of Burma’s currency and stamps adorned with pictures of the late General Aung San, some of which were designed by Aye Myint in the 1970s. Aye Myint is widely known for his old-fashioned designs, as his work is largely inspired by styles found in ancient stone carvings and murals dating back to the sixth century. After being expelled from Magwe Division’s Wazi, site of Burma’s national mint, Aye Myint moved to Rangoon to take up a job designing for a Buddhist literary magazine. Most of his artwork from this 11-year period was also on display to show milestones in his career. Today, at 86, Aye Myint has held onto his enthusiasm for designing—he is currently a consultant for a traditional weaving academy in Amarapura, Mandalay Division, and helps with the restoration efforts of the ancient Shwe Nan Daw Palace Monastery. Perhaps above all, the venerated artist’s wish for young people is to carry on learning about traditional Burmese art, even in the face of rapid cultural change. “We’re witnessing developments in many sectors, in culture as well. I want Burma’s youth to know the value of our heritage,” Aye Myint said. “We should preserve our culture.” Aye Myint’s exhibition will run at the Mandalay Hill Art Gallery, open from 9am to 9pm, until Feb. 6, and it is free of charge to anyone wishing to enjoy traditional Burmese art.\nWe do not encourage viewing this site in this width.

Here are the key distinctions:\nMarine environments are subject to various international and national regulations set forth by organizations like the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and local maritime authorities. Approved marine-type fire detection systems are designed and tested to meet these regulations, ensuring that they adhere to strict safety standards for marine vessels.\nDurability and Reliability\nApproved marine-type systems are built to withstand the harsh conditions of marine environments, including exposure to saltwater, humidity, vibration, and temperature fluctuations. These systems are more rugged and reliable compared to non-approved systems that might not be designed to withstand such conditions.\nTesting and Certification\nMarine-approved fire detection systems undergo comprehensive testing and certification processes to ensure their effectiveness in detecting fires accurately and quickly. Non-approved systems might lack this level of testing and certification, leading to potential safety gaps.\nFalse Alarm Mitigation\nMarine environments can be prone to false alarms due to factors like engine heat, humidity, and salt particles in the air. Approved marine-type systems are designed to minimize false alarms in these conditions, while non-approved systems might not have such specialized features.\nIntegration with Maritime Systems\nMarine-approved systems are often designed to integrate with other maritime safety systems, such as fire suppression systems, navigation equipment, and alarm systems. This integration enhances overall vessel safety and emergency response.\nInstallation and Maintenance\nApproved marine-type systems typically come with installation guidelines tailored to marine vessels. Maintenance procedures are also designed to accommodate the unique challenges of maritime environments, ensuring that the system remains operational and effective.\nMarine-approved systems come with documentation that demonstrates their compliance with relevant safety standards and regulations. This documentation can be important for regulatory inspections, insurance purposes, and other compliance requirements.\nManufacturers of approved marine-type fire detection systems often have expertise in maritime safety regulations and vessel requirements. They understand the nuances of marine environments and design their systems accordingly.\nThe key distinction between marine-approved and non-approved fire detection systems is the level of design, testing, and certification that the former undergoes to ensure its suitability for use in maritime environments.\nMarine-approved systems provide a higher level of safety, reliability, and compliance with marine safety standards compared to non-approved systems that might not be specifically designed for the unique challenges of maritime settings.", "domain": "design"}

In this blog post, we'll explore the top five home updates that not only elevate your lifestyle but also offer the best return on investment (ROI). From curb appeal to energy efficiency, these strategic updates strike the perfect balance between aesthetics and financial value.\n*1. Kitchen Remodel: The Heart of Value Enhancement\nThe kitchen is often considered the heart of the home, and it's no surprise that a well-executed kitchen remodel can significantly increase your home's value. Focus on quality materials and timeless designs that appeal to a broad audience. Consider upgrading countertops, appliances, and fixtures to create a modern and functional space that stands the test of time.\n*2. Bathroom Renovation: Luxury and Efficiency\nBathrooms are another high-impact area for potential buyers. A bathroom renovation can offer a luxurious feel while incorporating energy-efficient fixtures. Consider installing a low-flow toilet, energy-efficient lighting, and modern, water-saving faucets. A spa-like atmosphere combined with eco-friendly features is a winning combination.\n*3. Curb Appeal: First Impressions Matter\nThe exterior of your home creates the first impression, influencing a potential buyer's perception. Enhance curb appeal by investing in landscaping, a well-maintained lawn, and an inviting entrance. Updating the front door, adding a fresh coat of paint, and installing outdoor lighting are cost-effective ways to boost your home's exterior allure.\n*4. Energy-Efficient Windows: Sustainability and Savings\nEnergy efficiency is a top priority for modern homeowners. Upgrading to energy-efficient windows not only enhances your home's sustainability but also provides long-term cost savings. Opt for double or triple-pane windows with low-emissivity coatings to improve insulation and reduce utility bills. This update appeals to eco-conscious buyers and adds value to your property.\n*5. Smart Home Technology: A Modern and Marketable Touch\nIn the digital age, smart home technology is a desirable feature for homebuyers. Invest in a smart thermostat, security system, or lighting control system. These upgrades not only add convenience to your daily life but also increase the perceived value of your home. Potential buyers are often willing to pay a premium for a home equipped with the latest in technology.\nThese top five home updates go beyond aesthetics; they are strategic investments that offer a significant return. Whether you're enhancing the functionality of your kitchen, creating a spa-like oasis in your bathroom, boosting curb appeal, investing in energy-efficient windows, or incorporating smart home technology, these updates not only elevate your lifestyle but also position your home as a valuable asset in the real estate market. Make thoughtful choices, and watch your home's value rise with these savvy investments.", "domain": "design"}

It's a 3x4 table, rather small for a word search puzzle. Let's add more rows and columns. Ensure the table is selected, and then hover your cursor over the top left edge. You should see two + signs appear, one for the rows and another one for the columns. I will make the table 14x14.\nResize the table to be a perfect square by dragging it from the bottom right corner and moving your mouse around.\nCenter the table by clicking Position > Align to page > Center\n3. Write Down the Words\nNow let's write down the words for our puzzle. Let's go with the Pets topic and list some common pet animals.\nIn the menu on the left, go to the Text tab and select Add a little bit of body text.\nIn the text field that appeared on the canvas, enter your desired words one by one, starting a new line.\nYou can adjust text size and color in the settings panel at the top.\n4. Fill in the Letters\nNow that we have our grid and words ready, time to start assembling the puzzle!\nStart filling the grid with the words. Remember that you can cross the words with each other or place them diagonally. This can make puzzles more fun and interesting to solve.\nWhen all words are in, fill in the blanks with random letters, and you are all set!\n5. Add Images (Optional)\nYou can add some images to make your puzzle more exciting and memorable. Luckily, Canva makes this process trivial.\nIn the left menu, select the Elements tab and search for an image you want to add to your puzzle. I will look for an image of a cat because our puzzle is about pets.\nWhen you find the image you like, drag it to the canvas and position it where you want. Beautiful!\n6. Download or Print\nNow that your puzzle is ready, it's time to share it with others!\nAt the top right corner, go to File > Download. A popup will appear where you can select an image format and tweak settings. If you'd like to print out the puzzle, select File Type > PDF Print.\nAnd that's how in just 6 simple steps, you can make an original, well-designed Word Search puzzle. I hope you found this guide helpful!\nAlso, check out our Word Search Maker online tool that automates the process of creating Word Search puzzles and makes it quick and effortless.", "domain": "design"}

Start by choosing a color scheme that reflects the glitz and glamour of a real casino, such as red, black, and gold. Incorporate elements like playing cards, dice, and poker chips into your decor to set the mood.\nConsider hiring professional dealers to run the games and provide a realistic casino atmosphere. You can rent casino tables for popular games like blackjack, poker, and roulette to give your guests a variety of options to play. Don”t forget to provide play money or chips for guests to use during the event, so they can experience the thrill of gambling without the risk of losing real money.\nTo enhance the overall experience, consider adding entertainment such as a live band or DJ to keep the energy high throughout the night. Offer themed cocktails and appetizers to keep guests satisfied as they enjoy the games and socialize with one another. By paying attention to the details and creating a cohesive casino theme, you can ensure that your event is a memorable and enjoyable experience for all who attend.\nChoosing the Right Decorations\nWhen it comes to choosing the right decorations for a casino, there are a few key factors to keep in mind. First and foremost, you”ll want to consider the overall theme and atmosphere you”re trying to create. Are you going for a classic, glamorous feel, or something more modern and sleek?\nNext, think about the colors and materials you want to incorporate. Rich, deep colors like red, black, and gold are often associated with casinos, while materials like velvet, leather, and metallics can add a touch of luxury.\nDon”t forget to consider the layout of the space and how the decorations will fit in. You”ll want to create a cohesive look that flows well from one area to the next, so take some time to plan out where each decoration will go.\nFinally, don”t be afraid to get creative with your decorations. Think outside the box and consider unique elements like custom signage, themed props, or interactive displays to really set the scene and make your casino stand out.\nBy keeping these tips in mind and putting some thought into your choices, you can create a stunning and memorable atmosphere for your casino that will leave guests feeling like they”ve stepped into a high-end, exclusive establishment.\nSelecting Casino Games to Include\nWhen selecting casino games to include in a casino, it is important to consider the preferences of the target audience. Different players may have different preferences when it comes to the types of games they enjoy playing. Some players may prefer classic table games like blackjack and roulette, while others may be more interested in slot machines or video poker. By offering a variety of games that cater to a range of preferences, casinos can attract a wider audience and keep players entertained.\nAnother factor to consider when selecting casino games is the popularity and profitability of each game. Some games may be more popular among players than others, leading to higher revenues for the casino. By including popular games in the casino”s lineup, operators can increase their chances of attracting and retaining players. Additionally, games with higher house edges can be more profitable for the casino, so operators may choose to include a mix of games with varying house edges to maximize profitability.\nLastly, casinos should also consider the overall atmosphere and theme of the casino when selecting games to include. Some games may be more fitting for a luxury casino experience, while others may be better suited for a more casual or laid-back environment. By choosing games that complement the casino”s overall theme and atmosphere, operators can create a cohesive and immersive gaming experience for their patrons.\nPlanning Entertainment for Guests\nWhen planning entertainment for guests at a casino, it is important to consider the diverse preferences and interests of your audience. Whether your guests are looking for high-energy music and dancing, or a more low-key atmosphere with live music or comedy shows, it is crucial to offer a variety of options to cater to all tastes.\nOne popular entertainment option at casinos is hosting themed parties or events. Whether it be a retro-themed night with classic games and music, or a glamorous red carpet event with VIP treatment, themed parties can create a fun and memorable experience for guests.\nIn addition to live music and themed events, casinos can also offer interactive entertainment options such as casino games tournaments, magic shows, or interactive game shows. These types of entertainment can engage guests and create a lively and interactive atmosphere.\nWhen planning entertainment for guests at a casino, it is also important to consider the logistics of the event. This includes scheduling entertainment at times that are convenient for guests, ensuring that there is adequate seating and space for all attendees, and providing clear information about the entertainment options available.\nOverall, offering a diverse range of entertainment options, including live music, themed events, interactive entertainment, and considering logistical factors, can help create a fun and memorable experience for guests at a casino.\nCreating a Customized Menu\nWhen it comes to creating a customized menu for your casino, it”s important to consider the preferences and dietary restrictions of your guests. Offering a variety of options can help ensure that everyone has something delicious to enjoy. Consider including a mix of traditional casino favorites, as well as healthier options for those looking for lighter fare.\nOne way to create a customized menu is to work with a catering company that specializes in casino events. They can help you design a menu that reflects the theme of your casino and caters to the tastes of your guests. Be sure to consider any special requests or dietary restrictions when planning your menu, such as gluten-free or vegetarian options.\n- Include a mix of traditional casino favorites\n- Offer healthier options for guests looking for lighter fare\n- Work with a catering company specializing in casino events\n- Consider special requests and dietary restrictions\nSetting Up a Photo Booth\nSetting up a photo booth at a casino event can add an extra element of fun and entertainment for guests. To start, choose a location that is easily accessible and visible to all attendees. Consider setting up the photo booth near the entrance or in a high-traffic area to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to take photos.\nNext, make sure to provide a variety of props and backdrops to enhance the photo-taking experience. Consider incorporating casino-themed props such as oversized playing cards, dice, and feather boas for guests to use in their photos. Additionally, choose backdrops that match the theme of the event, such as a red carpet backdrop for a glamorous casino night.\nFinally, don”t forget to promote the photo booth to ensure that guests are aware of its presence. Use signage, announcements, and social media to inform attendees about the photo booth and encourage them to take advantage of this fun activity.

Is there a conflict? Does working with sustainable fabrics limit designers? What new technologies excite her? What does she think of ‘wearables’? I posed these questions and more to her, considering her answers in the context of the the wider fashion industry.\nWhen discussing whether she perceives sustainability being at odds with unlimited creativity in fashion design, Vanessa told me “Fashion has always had that tension – sometimes it’s about pricing, sometimes its more practical restrictions, like the need for two armholes and a place for your head… that creates discipline for designers and I don’t think there is anything wrong with that. Sustainability is part of the challenge of design”. She believes that when you are making something that is functional, which fashion is, you have to wrestle with the egregiousness of the product you are making. Her standpoint is one of sustainable materials posing a challenge, rather than being a problem.\nVanessa cites the possibility that aesthetics may be shaped by the advance of new materials, smart textiles and new fibre composites – cellulosic and animal fibre blends, for example – as a huge opportunity. If such advances could result in less seams required and ultra light materials, like those used by Moncler who are “making warm coats that can by smushed into a tiny ball for carry on”, then all these advances are exciting. “Designers should embrace these challenges and opportunities as a chance for them to think differently – It should be something they look forward to”.\nI am curious to know whether (and when) Vanessa sees a future where the discussion on sustainability becomes a part of the high profile seasonal fashion discourse during fashion month, taking place in New York, Paris, London and Milan, where she sits front row in her capacity as the Fashion Director and Chief Fashion Critic of The New York Times. “In my dream world, you don’t need a Copenhagen Fashion Summit that’s all about sustainability – this is not a discourse that is combined with a mainstream event because it is a mainstream event and it is part of best practice – period”. Her take on the sustainability message is “we can talk about it or not talk about it. You don’t want to be an eco brand, you just want to be a brand that happens to be sustainable. It shouldn’t be the thing that sets you apart, it should be the thing that makes you part of the general conversation”.\nIt’s Vanessa’s opinion that using sustainability as a sales tool and part of the brand message, has an upside and a downside. The upside is the point of differentiation which can attract consumers, while the downside is that it puts the brand in a different niche for other consumers. She reflects on Vogue’s former “eco or green design section of the magazine where they would feature a different designer every month… You don’t want to be there – you want to be with Gucci, you want to be with Vuitton”. Reflecting on her comment, it seems to me that sustainability shouldn’t be a consolation or an optional brand choice – it should be quietly integrated into all fashion brands.\nMoving onto the subject of textiles and manufacturing, I asked Vanessa if she has seen any ‘game-changing’ developments emerging. She highlights 3D printing and manufacturing to order, thereby eliminating stock and production processes (that have long and complicated supply chains) as the most exciting. “If you can produce a garment in a very short amount of time to order for someone, you will change everything”. Vanessa is thinking of the likes of 3D printed shoes and advances in digital knitting. It is her opinion that the biggest change for fashion as a result of advances in technology is going to be in the production process, rather than “the accessory that tests your heart rate… To me, the really exciting opportunity is in how you manufacture”. Evidence in the form of the Adidas Speedfactory and the mass customisation by NIKEiD support her comments, as do the advances in digital knitting that have led to a complete transformation of the entire footwear industry through the creation of Flyknit and Adidas Ultra Boost, amongst many other digitally knitted products with simplified supply chains, local manufacturing and short lead times.\nImage: Adidas Ultraboost\nWhen I asked Vanessa which designers or brands that she feels are doing exciting things fusing tech and fashion she is of the leaning that there is a giant gap in this area. She defines it as “A problem that no-one has quite figured out, between technology companies that can make gadgets, and they are trying to make them ‘fashiony’ – and fashion companies that make fashion and are trying to make them ‘techy’. You need a third point of the triangle, which is someone who is going to figure out how to meaningfully combine the two”. Enter a number of innovative cross-disciplinary labs and incubators emerging for the express purpose of making this happen, including Plug and Play and Mira Duma’s Fashion Tech Lab.\nOn the subject of ‘wearables’, Vanessa pulls no punches: “I think ‘wearables’ is the most ridiculous word I have ever heard – everything is a ‘wearable’ – my jacket is a ‘wearable’ and it has no tech in it at all. I don’t think ‘wearables’ has figured out what it is yet. It’s a catch all word for techy gadgets you wear, but that’s not really a sector”. To a degree, we may be talking semantics here, but based on the abandoned Fitbit and Google Glass, amongst others, it’s true that the gaping divide between where tech provides clever capabilities and fashion provides aesthetics and desirability to create life-enhancing products, remains wide.\nImage top: Google Glass Image bottom: Fitbit\nReflecting further on the state of wearables, Vanessa reminisces about the iPhone and iPod “changing the way that everybody interacted with music”. She says that in contrast, “there has been nothing like that with fashion – no wearable has achieved that”. Considering the outcome of our discussion and my questions about sustainability playing a bigger role in fashion, it seems that to Vanessa’s mind, there is a tension between fashion and tech, but not between fashion design and sustainability.\nAs I wrap up this article, an invitation to the launch of Nadi X by Wearable X – the first Wearable yoga pant to ‘communicate with the user to ‘aid alignment’, hits my inbox. Perhaps our ‘Wearable’ future is about to take a new life-enhancing turn towards the perfect fusion? Stay tuned for the verdict.", "domain": "design"}

For that reason, Vertical blinds have become an amazing solution for modernist architecture. Their main asset is the aesthetic effect and possibility of regulating the amount of sunlight coming inside the room. The available range of colours will satisfy even the most demanding client. Top-Line vertical blinds are also used as a room divider. Another useful advantage except for the possibility of rotating the lamels, is moving them to the left or right side and also from inside.

Building on his long work as a designer, writer, exhibition maker, and founder of P!—the “Mom-and-Pop-Kunsthalle” that first existed in New York City from 2012–2017—the artwork surveys the overproduction, mass consumption, and fleeting attention span of the contemporary art world. To redefine the stakes of exhibition making, Endless Exhibition proposes a simple temporal play: starting today, every exhibition, art fair, and biennial mounted should be permanent, remaining on view forever.\nA performative, polymorphic work—incarnated in texts, images, PDF presentations, lectures, publications, audio and video documentation, contractual agreements, and even whole exhibition programs and institutional formats—Endless Exhibition poses timely questions of space, waste, labor, and future histories. At the same time, it challenges the supposed autonomy of discrete artworks, fulfilling, in Krishnamurthy’s own words from a 1999 notebook entry, “[Principle] 5: reappearance of the project—the project should never be ‘done’—it should always invite addition, rethinking, recontextualizing…”\nIn 2019, Kunsthal Gent acquired the piece as part of its inaugural institutional framework, “Kunsthal as City.” In this context, it accrues layers of architecture and programming to construct an ongoing archaeology. Instantiating itself over time, Endless Exhibition rehearses new approaches to changing the global art ecosystem by rewriting its rules.\nPrem Krishnamurthy is based in Berlin and New York. He is a partner and director of the multidisciplinary design practice Wkshps. Previously, he was a founder of the design studio Project Projects, winner of the Cooper Hewitt’s National Design Award. He serves as co-Artistic Director of FRONT International 2021, the contemporary art triennial in Cleveland and Northern Ohio. As an independent exhibition maker, he was an Artistic Director of the inaugural Fikra Graphic Design Biennial, Ministry of Graphic Design, and has curated exhibitions internationally including at P!, the acclaimed \"Mom-and-Pop-Kunsthalle\" that he founded in New York’s Chinatown in 2012. He has written for numerous catalogues and magazines and has edited books with Berkeley Art Museum, Cabinet Books, Duke University Press, Paper Monument, and others.

Even though loft conversions are usually done to add more space to the house, they differ from one house to another. One of the vital requirements of loft conversion is adding a staircase for safe access. Commonly, staircases take up a huge amount of space. So, it is essential to find out a way to space-saving stairs for a loft conversion for both aesthetic and practical sense.\nIf you are planning for a new staircase for the newly added floor in your building, there are several Building Regulations to consider. Adding a new floor requires a new staircase. While you can use a fixed ladder in some cases, the majority of conversions need stairs. You have to consider the following regulations when installing stairs to your loft:\n- A fixed staircase is a must to provide safe access\n- Space saver stairs may be used, only for single room lofts\n- Maximum steepness pitch of staircase maybe 42 degrees\n- The staircase can provide minimum headroom height of 1.9m\n- All the risers must be equal\n- For a drop of more than 600mm, a handrail must be provided\nSpace Saver Stairs\nOne of the most popular types of loft staircase is space-saving stairs. They allow the optimization of the available space in small houses. With the use of alternating treads, which provide a deep step, space saver stairs provide comfort and safety. According to the building regulations, this type of stairs can only be used for lofts with only one habitable room.\nRegulations for Space Saver\nThere are limitations on where you can use a space saver staircase. As I mentioned before, this staircase can be used only for a single room or a room with an en-suite. This type of staircase must have a handrail or a wall-rail on at least one side. It cannot be used as a replacement for a regular staircase.\nTakes less Room\nAs space saver stairs take alternate steps, they take up a lot less room. Therefore, you can use each of your foot for each step alternately while taking the flight of the stairs. This way, you can also finish your steps twice as quickly. Although these are not considered as the safest means of escape. So, you must check with your building regulations first. Your builder will ask you whether you want the left or right foot first. People usually go for their strongest foot.\nStairs over the existing ones\nAs space-saving staircases are extremely regulated by the building control, there are other options you can use instead. Placing the loft stairs over the existing staircase will ensure that you have enough headspace and also it will minimize the floor space that the stairs will take.\nMake the staircase in another room\nIf you do not have enough space above your existing stairs, you can always take the stairs in a spare bedroom or any other unused space. This will reduce the inconvenience that the staircase will cause.", "domain": "design"}

It is a space that reflects our personalities, comforts us after a long day, and provides shelter from the outside world. However, as our lives evolve, so do our needs and preferences. This is where the transformative power of home renovation comes into play. Whether it’s updating a single room or undertaking a complete overhaul, home renovations have the potential to enhance our lives and create spaces that truly resonate with who we are.\nCreating Personalized Spaces\nOne of the most significant advantages of home renovation is the ability to customize your living space according to your unique tastes and requirements. Every individual has different preferences when it comes to aesthetics, functionality, and design. A renovation allows you to turn your vision into reality by tailoring every aspect of your home to suit your needs.\nFor instance, if you are a passionate cook, a kitchen renovation can transform a lackluster cooking area into a chef’s dream, complete with state-of-the-art appliances, ample storage, and a layout optimized for efficiency. Similarly, a bedroom renovation can turn a bland sleeping space into a cozy haven, incorporating elements such as custom-built closets, lighting fixtures, and a soothing color palette.\nEnhancing Comfort and Functionality\nHome renovations offer the opportunity to improve the comfort and functionality of your living space. Many older homes may lack the modern conveniences and energy-efficient features available today. By upgrading heating and cooling systems, insulation, and windows, you can create a more comfortable environment while reducing energy consumption and utility bills.\nRenovations can also address practical issues within the home. For example, adding an extra bathroom or expanding an existing one can alleviate morning congestion and enhance convenience for large families. Additionally, creating an open floor plan by removing walls can foster better flow and connectivity between living areas, promoting interaction and enhancing the overall livability of the space.\nIncreasing Property Value\nHome renovations are not only an investment in your present enjoyment but can also yield substantial returns in the future. When executed thoughtfully, renovations have the potential to increase the value of your property. Upgraded kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor spaces are particularly sought after by potential buyers and can significantly boost the resale value of your home.\nHowever, it’s important to strike a balance between personalization and broad appeal. While it’s crucial to create a space that aligns with your preferences, keeping certain design elements versatile and timeless can help attract a wider pool of buyers down the line.\nEmotional Well-being and Personal Growth\nBeyond the physical changes, home renovations can have a profound impact on our emotional well-being. Our living environment directly influences our mood, productivity, and overall happiness. By creating a space that resonates with our personalities and meets our needs, we can cultivate a sense of peace, contentment, and inspiration.\nMoreover, embarking on a home renovation journey can be a transformative experience in itself. It provides an opportunity for personal growth, decision-making, and creative expression. The process of envisioning, planning, and witnessing the transformation of your home can instill a sense of accomplishment, pride, and ownership.\nHome renovations have the power to go beyond superficial changes, allowing us to create spaces that truly enhance our lives. From personalized aesthetics and improved functionality to increased property value and emotional well-being, the benefits of home renovation are undeniable. By investing in our homes, we invest in ourselves, creating a sanctuary that reflects our identity, supports our needs, and inspires us to thrive. So, whether it’s a minor update or a major transformation, the transformative power of home renovation is an opportunity worth embracing.", "domain": "design"}

The enormity of that change isn’t lost on the Guardian’s director of digital strategy Wolfgang Blau, who acknowledges that such a radical redesign puts an onus on an audience to remain loyal through the change as much as it puts on the publisher:\n«In this industry you expect a launch dip because this is not a redesign, this is a completely rebuilt information architecture, different section structure. It’s not a repackaging of something, it’s a new Guardian.»\nBut the Guardian’s approach to the redesign – entirely in the open, taking over 100,000 pieces of feedback from beta users, a staggered roll-out in the United States and Australia – has so far mitigated the initial impact of the relaunch, with traffic stats in the US where it was first launched barely altering.\nBut while improving the user experience while keeping the audience on-side is paramount, the new design is also aimed at making it easier to monetise the Guardian online.\nThe redesign is built on a modular structure, which Blau says allows it to better serve its audience as a breaking news site even as it reduces the distance between ads and ecommerce offerings:\n«The longer we thought about the theme the more we realised that we weren’t really sure what a homepage should be these days… Of course we knew [we are a breaking news site] but when we took a look at our old site we realised our old home page was not doing a very good job at making it really easy for you to really scan the news agenda before you then move onto most non-news journalism the Guardian can offer you. This is one editorial reason we came up with this very modular structure.\n«We call them ‘containers’ or ‘modules’, but what we liked about the terminology of containers is their compatibility no matter where you put them.»\nThe modular structure is all in service of better reflecting the user journey on a breaking news site like the Guardian. Noting that a third of visits to the Guardian’s old site contained at least one visit to the homepage, whether that was where the user landed or not, Blau says the new colour-coding of comment pieces, news articles, reviews etc. is a more intuitive way for the user to discover the content they actually want.\nAnd since the modular nature of those containers allows for the insertion of ads in-line without breaking user flow, it should have a positive effect on the revenue those ads bring in.\nDavid Pemsel, the Guardian’s deputy chief executive, explains how the redesign offers benefits to advertising partners even as it distinguishes the Guardian’s premium nature from its rivals:\n«On the macro level the industry rewards dwell time, engagement, brand loyalty etc. I suppose in the sea of programmatic the Guardian has an obligation to ensure it provides the most enriching and the most engaging environment, which this clearly is.\n«This is a proof point particularly to the clients that we talk to about our role in the world, about being a premium publisher. Coupled with that, when you talk to an agency or client about that they then are straight into ‘show me the real estate we can have’. Because we can be quite precious. We can sort of say ‘we’re editorial led, therefore you’ll get the boxes you’re given’, whereas actually now this is far more integrated and far more intuitively right than it’s even been before.»\nThat real estate includes in-line MPUs with the option for visually appealing parallax scrolling and interactive banner ads that work just as well in terms of display viewability across all platforms. Moreover, that focus on streamlining the site to improve the user journey allows for better ecommerce opportunities. Pemsel says:\n«In addition to display revenue we have an ecommerce business whether it be books or it be travel. It’s fair to say it also felt like pretty basic badging on the site, so even though you might have some fantastic editorial around travel the placement of our ability to monetise that did feel slightly awkward and sometimes the positioning would be wrong. Whereas here it’s much more seamless, so you can read an article and then very easily go and transact on a holiday.»\nAs for the still-developing question about the dismantling of the Chinese wall between editorial output and advertising, Pemsel notes that the Guardian does not use the term ‘native’, instead preferring to consider the content on Guardian Labs as ‘sponsored by’ content that is clearly labelled. That labelling is crucial to maintaining the premium Guardian audience’s trust and, says Blau, handily reflects what that audience already wants:\n«One experiment that was eye-opening for us was the regular ad spaces in the article body, the MPU, there was a discussion early on should we label them or not? And we said, like everything, let’s just test it, A/B test it from morning to evening. And the clickthrough rate when we had the label ‘advertisement’ above the MPU was significantly higher. Our readers really like that and click more often, so we’re not worried at all about direct vicinity of commercial-editorial elements, quite the opposite.»\nPemsel is bullish on the commercial benefits of the relaunch, expressing his belief that it benefits all of the Guardian’s varied revenue streams:\n«Some of the ideas we have been developing in Guardian Labs, the Unilever deal, the EE, they are very rich and beautiful content experiences that were somewhat lost in the site before, and now we’ve been able to bring them out and they’re far more discoverable.\n«It demonstrates the diversity of our revenue whether it be from global, ecommerce, Guardian Labs, the display formats, and obviously events and membership.»\nThe back-end of the new site has been similarly streamlined, to allow for quick and easy adjustment of the containers on the home page and within articles. The decision is driven by the Guardian’s recognition that as a breaking news site it provides a service that its old home page simply wasnt delivering. As a result, news items and ads can be slotted in and out, in different territories and whenever necessary.\nIt also has benefits for individual journalists at the Guardian, who can now access that CMS from anywhere, and who can include video content much more easily that ever before. Blau says:\n«Video is just a hygiene thing, where just so many functions weren’t there, and we’ve overhauled the video player tremendously. The whole idea is noone in the building should need more than 30 minutes [of training] to be able to publish.»\nEverything about the relaunch from the open nature of its development to the revamped back end has flowed from the Guardian’s desire to reinvent itself as a breaking news destination with an intuitive user journey. As part and parcel of that, the container system developed for the relaunch has in turn fine-tuned its commercial viability to better reflect the needs of its audience and establish it as a premium destination for advertisers. While nothing can be taken fro granted in digital publishing, Pemsel believes the long-term benefits of the relaunch will become evident in time:\n«We have to say, in the UK we talk about being the largest cross-platform quality news brand. You have to match that with our commercial opportunity as well as your editorial stance.\n«Sometimes one can find yourself talking about that to an advertiser or media agency and they feel like you’re slightly naive to think you can go up against the advent of huge programmatric trading desks. But at the same time we have an obligation to say we have an incredibly valuable audience.»", "domain": "design"}

If you launch it during the title screen, it will play through all the stages from the first to the last. Or you can intermittently start and stop it on any stage to enable it to complete a section.\nIn 1-player mode, the playfield consists of a rectangular matrix populated with various cookies. And the objective of each stage is to completely clear the playfield. The player accomplished that task by repeatedly forming rows/columns consisting exclusively of the same cookie type; completed lines are automatically removed, shrinking the matrix. However, new rows/columns that slowly fall from the sides cause the matrix to grow upon contact. If the width/height of the matrix reaches 8, it’s game over.\nThe player controls a cursor that’s used to rotate individual rows/columns. A rotation consists of shifting all the cookies within a line by 1 space in either direction. The cookie that get pushed off the edge of the matrix wraps around to the other side, filling in the gap created by the shift.\nThe rotation mechanic makes the playfield topologically resemble a torus. Rotating rows is analogous to toroidal motion along the tube and rotating columns is analogous to poloidal motion around the tube, or vice versa.\nIn the lower-right of the frame, the game displays how many lines of each cookie type were completed by the player. Each completed line is indicated by a glowing red bulb. When the player achieves 5 red bulbs for the same cookie type, he’s rewarded with a Yoshi Cookie.\nA Yoshi Cookie acts as a wild card that can be used to clear lines of any other cookie type.\nInterestingly, the Yoshi’s Cookie Instruction Booklet erroneously describes a slightly different behavior:\nPerhaps a last-minute design change resulted in that mismatch. In fact, the hint that appears in the instruction booklet for the SNES version correctly explains, “When you complete five lines of one type of cookie you will get a very special YOSHI COOKIE! This cookie can be used as a wild card to help complete any type of cookie line.” Whatever the case, as you’ll see below, Yoshi was right about the “special message from Mario.”\nThe 1P menu allows the player to choose the starting round, which normally goes up to 10. And each round consists of 10 stages. However, upon completing the tenth stage of round 10, the end credits roll and the sequence culminates with these two screens:\nIn rounds 11 and up, Heart, Flower, Diamond, Check and Circle cookies are respectively replaced by Super Mushroom, Boo Buddy, Goomba, Jumpin’ Piranha Plant, and Bloober cookies. Yoshi Cookies are still available upon completing 5 lines of the same type. But, as an added challenge, each stage begins with a Green Koopa Troopa Shell cookie. And only one Shell exists throughout the entire stage. The only way to eliminate it is to pair it up with a Yoshi Cookie, completing a line of length 2.\nIn recognition of beating round 10, the game swaps Music Type A with a new tune. Listen in to the Round 99 video above to experience it.\nThe bot constructs lines in much the same way that a human player does. It builds them incrementally using a greedy algorithm, making locally optimal choices at each stage. That compromise was employed due to the immense size of the solution space; an exhaustive search to compute the globally optimal way to manipulate the playfield is not feasible in real-time.\nI’ll explain how the algorithm does this through an example. In the matrix below, the algorithm is in the process of building row 1. Three Hearts are already in place and three spaces remain:\nThe first step is to move the cursor to the column containing the nearest space:\nNext, it locates the nearest Heart outside of row 1, which happens to be directly beneath the cursor. Since the Heart is within the same column, all it needs to do is to rotate the column to get the Heart into position:\nWith the Heart in position, the cursor advances to the column containing the nearest space. When accounting for wraparound, the nearest space is in column 0. The cursor moves there by taking 1 step right:\nAnytime that the algorithm measures a distance, moves the cursor, or rotates a row/column, it always considers wraparound to exercise the minimal cost option.\nAs before, it locates the nearest Heart outside of row 1. And this time the target is on row 4. Since its not within the cursor’s column, the cursor moves to that row:\nNext, it rotates row 4 until the Heart is within column 0:\nThen it rotates column 0 to get another Heart into position:\nOnce again, the algorithm moves the cursor to the column containing the nearest space:\nAs seen twice before, it locates the nearest Heart outside of row 1, which is directly beneath the cursor. Since the Heart is within the same column, all it needs to do is to rotate the column to get the Heart into position. In this case, the optimal way to do that is to take advantage of wraparound by shifting the Heart down 2 steps:\nThat completes the line. But how does the bot know which line to build?\nFor all cookie types, the bot simulates building all possible rows and all possible columns. A line can be built if there are at least the line-length number of cookies of a given type—and/or Yoshi Cookies—on the playfield. It scores all the lines that can potentially be built and then it goes with the one with the highest score. The score depends on 3 factors:\nIn comparing potential lines, when the points are equal, the one with the fewest steps wins out. Regarding balance, when rows take priority, columns aren’t even considered, and the other way around.\nWhile building a line using the greedy algorithm discussed above, it is possible to inadvertently clear other lines. And such unintentional clears may even trigger chain reactions. During simulation, clearing any lines will cause the greedy algorithm to halt, at which point it will evaluate the score. Meaning, even if the result was accidental, it may potentially be a valuable discovery and its treated as such.\nThe greedy algorithm is applied at the start of the stage and at any time the matrix size changes. The latter happens after clearing lines and after falling rows/columns make contact with the matrix. A falling line may make contact mid-build. In that case, the current line construction ceases, the greedy algorithm executes with the modified matrix, and the bot runs with the new results.\nIn general, the contents and the locations of the falling lines are ignored until contact with the matrix except when they benefit the elimination of the Green Koopa Troopa Shell in rounds 11+. When the matrix has been reduced to a single row/column containing a Shell, the bot will rotate that line to pair up the Shell with a falling Yoshi Cookie when available:\nThe bot often successfully reduces the matrix to the point that no additional cookies can be eliminated. When that happens, the bot holds down gamepad button B to make the falling lines drop faster. The game does not reward the player for doing so with bonus points. But it diminishes idle time.\nWhile the bot can detect and execute patterns much faster than human players, it’s not perfect. Success varies with the cookies drawn by the RNG. Luckily, the game provides infinite continues. And the bot plays on unfazed by losses. Checkout some of the videos of its gameplay at the top of this page.\nThe bot uses the Nintaco API to manipulate CPU Memory, to assert gamepad buttons and to receive frame rendered events. All memory addresses were discovered through exploration with the Nintaco Debugging Tools and the information has been added to the Data Crystal ROMhacking.net wiki. In the source, they appear as constants within the Addresses interface.\nThe .zip contains:\nCopyright © 2019 meatfighter.com", "domain": "design"}

The designs of HK$1,000 and HK$500 were unveiled today, and these two denominations will be put into circulation in the last quarter of 2010 and early 2011 respectively. Further public announcements will be made nearer the time when the new notes are to be put into circulation. The design of the remaining three denominations, HK$100, HK$50 and HK$20, will be unveiled around the middle of next year.\nThe new banknotes have incorporated state-of-the-art security features, the locations of which will be the same across all five denominations. The five more important key features are:\nPeople with visual impairments will find the new banknotes easier to use as Braille and tactile lines have been added to help them differentiate the denominations. A new note measuring template, sponsored by the HKMA and the three note-issuing banks, will be made available through voluntary agencies serving the visually impaired community.\n\"For the past 6 years Hong Kong has seen a continuous decrease in counterfeit rate. Currently there is less than 1 piece of fake note in every 1 million pieces of notes in circulation. We should not be complacent and must ensure that we are staying ahead of counterfeiters. There is a need to revamp the design of our banknotes and introduce latest available security features to minimise the risk of being counterfeited,\" said Mr Norman Chan, Chief Executive of the HKMA.\n\"We have used state-of-the-art security designs and also plate-making and printing technology to enhance the anti-counterfeiting capability and recognisability of the new notes. The new notes also incorporates enhanced accessibility features to facilitate visually impaired people to differentiate the denominations,\" Mr Chan added.\nThe new banknotes have been approved by the Financial Secretary and are printed by Hong Kong Note Printing Limited. The designs of the notes are individual note-issuing banks' responsibilities.\nMr Benjamin Hung, Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer of Standard Chartered Bank (Hong Kong) Limited, said, \"Standard Chartered's new series of banknotes are a continuing evolution of the design theme first unveiled in the 1980s - refreshed and refined to incorporate the latest world-class security features specified by the HKMA. The reverse side of the new notes celebrates Chinese inventions and their influence on modern security technology. With almost 150 years of experience as one of Hong Kong's note-issuing banks, Standard Chartered is delighted to continue its contributions towards the ongoing development of our city's financial sector.\"\nMr Peter Wong, Chief Executive of The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited (HSBC), said, \"HSBC is the largest note issuer in Hong Kong and our banknotes are the most commonly seen in the city. Our new series of banknotes reflect some of the important occasions that the people of Hong Kong celebrate every year. To illustrate the unique culture of Hong Kong, the spiritual home of HSBC, our in-house designers have incorporated into the new series the images of local celebration activities, Chinese calligraphy and auspicious Chinese patterns. It is also the first time that images of Hong Kong people have been included in the design of the whole series of HSBC's banknotes.\"\nMr He Guangbei, Vice Chairman and Chief Executive of Bank of China (Hong Kong) Limited (BOCHK), said, \"The front panels of BOCHK's new notes will have a fresh but familiar look as we continue to use the two symbolic images - the bauhinia and the Bank of China Tower, with a brand-new design. The back panels feature beautiful natural scenery, highlighting the unique and majestic side of Hong Kong. We hope the designs of the new note series will help promote the natural wonders as well as significant landmarks of Hong Kong. As a responsible corporate citizen, we endeavour to increase environmental awareness of the public and contribute to the sustainability of society through the design of the new series, making \"The Pearl of the Orient\" even shinier and brighter.\"\nAll existing banknotes continue to be legal tender. They will continue to circulate along the new banknotes and will be gradually withdrawn from circulation when they become unfit for circulation.\nThe HKMA will launch an extensive education programme to raise public awareness of the new banknotes. Seminars will be conducted for banks, retailers and money changers; and special outreach seminars will be arranged for centres for the elderly and people with visual impairments. Exhibitions will be held in different districts in Hong Kong to let people view and feel the new banknotes before the notes go into circulation (see schedule of exhibitions at Annex). An interactive online-learning programme is available on the HKMA website at http://www.hkma.gov.hk, and leaflets illustrating the new security features are available to the public at the HKMA office, branches of the note-issuing banks and District Offices.\nFor further enquiries please contact:\nHong Kong Monetary Authority\nTel: 2878 1802\nTel: 2878 1213\nStandard Chartered Bank (Hong Kong) Limited\nHead of Media & Government Relations\nTel: 2820 3036\nSenior Corporate Affairs Manager\nTel: 2820 3837\nThe Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited\nHead of External Affairs, Group Communications (Asia)\nTel: 2822 4930\nSenior Corporate Communications Manager, Group Communications (Asia)\nTel: 2822 4992\nBank of China (Hong Kong) Limited\nChief Corporate Communications Manager\nTel: 2826 6159\nSenior Corporate Communications Manager\nTel: 2826 6133\nHong Kong Monetary Authority\n20 July 2010", "domain": "design"}

Russell’s will receive the QHCA award in September at Comfortech, a national event, to be held in Dallas, Texas.\nRussell’s was honored for the installation of the comfort system in a 4,000 square foot home in the Hampton Roads waterways region of Virginia. Russell’s, one of five winners in the nation, won first place in the New Construction category, up to 4001 square feet. The award is based on outstanding design, the use of the newest technology, and top quality installation practices.\nHomeowners Tom and Ann wanted a system that would keep them cozy during their region’s damp winters and cool during the hot, humid summers. They were also particularly interested in radiant heat. “We had radiant heat in the kitchen and bathroom in our previous home, and it was so comfortable,” says Ann. “It also seems like such a ‘healthy’ type of heat, because dust is never blown around.” After doing extensive research on the Internet, the couple decided they wanted a radiant system to heat their entire home.\nHowever, radiant heat isn’t too common in their region because of the mild winters, and finding a contractor well-versed in radiant was a bit of a tall order. After contacting a radiant heating manufacturer’s representative, the couple was put in touch with Russell’s Heating and Cooling, since 1977, Russell’s serves the residential service and replacement market in the Hampton Roads/Tidewater area of Virginia.\nAlso included in the system design was the use of a constant fresh air exchange system. “ This home is built so well that the air inside will not have much opportunity to mix with fresh outside air. I was concerned about the air quality of the home, and the only way to bring in fresh air was to use an exchanger system,” says Buddy Smith, president of Russell’s. “If we didn’t bring in outside air then all the indoor pollutants would build up in the home, and would eventually make our clients sick.”\nSince moving into their new home, Tom and Ann have been thrilled with their comfort system. Not only are their utility bills lower than in their former home, they are more comfortable than they ever imagined. Their praise extends to Russell’s, as well. “Throughout the entire process, Russell’s Heating and Cooling paid such close attention to all the details,” says Tom. “They are a first class company, and we recommend them to our friends, family, and associates.”\nAnd for Russell’s Heating and Cooling, a Quality Home Comfort Award is nice, but there’s no better reward than satisfied customers.\nContracting Business is a monthly, national business publication written specifically for heating, ventilating, air conditioning, and refrigeration contractors. The mission of the Quality Home Comfort Awards is to promote excellence in comfort system design and installation and create awareness of the broad range of comfort systems available today through quality HVAC contractors. It’s a program that recognizes a true commitment to quality by contractors, builders, and manufacturers alike.\nPenton Media (NYSE: PME) is a leading, global business-to-business media company that produces market-focused magazines, trade shows, and conferences, and Web sites.

Whether it’s product images, photography of your facility and employees, at some point you’re almost certainly going to be asked to come up with some images.\nIf you aren’t familiar with graphics and all that stuff – it can get a bit confusing. Optimizing images? Aspect Ratio? JPG or PNG? What the heck are they talking about?\nIn these examples, I’m going to be using WordPress as our guide – most of the time, we use WordPress as the platform for our clients because it is flexible, efficient (if you know how to set it up), and scales well to nearly all needs. About one in every three sites on the web uses this platform. Many of these concepts will work well for other platforms as well, though.\nWhat Are Aspect Ratios and Why Are They Important?\nIn technical terms, the aspect ratio is the comparison of the width and the height. Using television as an example, old TV sets before the era of HDTV had an aspect ratio of 4:3. No matter how big the screen, the height of the screen is 0.75 (3/4) of the width. If your screen was 12 inches across, it would be 8 inches tall. 16 inches across would have a height of 12 inches. Wikipedia has a bunch more technical information available about aspect ratios, too.\nIf you’ve watched an older television show on your HDTV (which is typically at a 16:9 aspect ratio) you are familiar with the black bars on either side. This is because if the image was zoomed in to fit the width of the screen, portions of the top and bottom would be cut off. In some cases you can set the image to “stretch” to the full width to match the aspect ratio of your television set, but then you end up with everyone looking like they’ve put on a few pounds and everything in the image is wider than it normally would be. You could also set them to “zoom” in and loose the black borders, but the tops of everyone’s heads and their feet get chopped off.\nIn most web projects, it’s not so much which aspect ratio you choose as it is about being consistent with them once they are chosen. If you are inconsistent, you end up with the same sort of situation we described with the televisions above. You can work around it a little bit, but it invariably means that there is going to be extra white space or cropping out of portions of the image.\nIn some cases, such as the header image on this site, cropping happens no matter what when it comes to converting things to mobile. If we left it so the whole image was visible, the height would be very small and the image would be hard to see. By understanding how images are cropped or scaled when switching between different devices, we can come up with a plan on how to choose the images.\nInconsistent aspect ratios are especially noticeable when trying to lay things out in a grid like with your product listings or blog posts page. In order to make the columns all fit the width, you end up with a bunch of ugly white space around everything if your aspect ratios aren’t the same.\nWordPress and your designers can sometimes come up with some tricks to fool the eye and make this less noticeable – but there are sacrifices to be made in such cases. For example, in the image here, option “E” would almost certainly need to be cropped in order to make things lay out nicely. Much of the top and bottom of the image would need to be scrapped. Meanwhile, image “F” would likely need to be cropped on the left and right to fill the space appropriately and not end up so small that you couldn’t see it.\nOptimal Image Sizes\nOnce you’ve come up with the aspect ratio (or sometimes multiple ratios will be chosen for different sections of the site) you have to consider how big things are. Smaller images are faster to download, but larger images look better on a big screen. The trick is finding the right balance.\nIf you have a good quality digital camera (or even a nice cell phone) the pictures that come off it can be HUGE – 4000 pixels across or more. For printing images, this is great, but for the web, it’s overkill. Even the highest setting on most desktops isn’t typically set to anything larger than 2000 pixels wide.\nIf the images you’re going to be using are for a grid layout and will never be seen full screen sized, then making them larger than they need to be on a large screen is a waste, too.\nWordPress helps us a bit in this area by creating multiple versions of each image when you upload it. If you click the image here, you’ll see that it scales up and you can see it full sized, but if you never click it – it only downloads a smaller version of itself to save bandwidth and make the downloads go faster.\nAs a general rule of thumb, I always suggest to clients that the largest version of the image should be no more than 1600 pixels wide. This is large enough to cover the width of most screens (and it doesn’t blur out too much on larger ones). Once optimized, it’s a fairly decent download size and you still get some great quality.\nIn most graphics editing programs, there are several ways to save the images – and a number of different formats that you can save them in.In most graphics editor programs, you will see a “Save for Web…” option under the “File” menu. From there, you can select the type of image (see “Image Formats” below) and the settings. Some will provide a preview.\n- DPI (Dots Per Inch): For print, we typically see a number of around 200 dots per inch. On the web, we typically use 72dpi. Adjust this number to 72. You’ll get good enough qualify for the web and not have a lot of wasted pixels that won’t ever get rendered.\n- Compression Levels (Image Quality): Typically (for JPG files, especially) you have some options for compression levels or image quality. Compression Level is typically a “low to high” scenario with low levels being better quality, but larger download sizes. Image Quality is the same thing, but backwards. High quality means lower compression levels. It can be a number from 1 to 100 or sometimes it will use words like “low,” “high,” “very high”, etc. The idea here is to pick something around the 60-80% range -a fair trade off between compression levels and quality.\nNotes on Compression Levels: If your image has text and/or crisp straight lines in it, you will want a lower compression level/larger file size. Compression “blurs” things slightly, so the more compression you add, the more blur. Most images that are photographs without crisp lines can be compressed at a much higher level before you notice the blurring effect kicking in.\nThough there is a new format of web images called “webp” which has amazing compression levels but it is not fully supported in all graphics editors yet. These can be a great choice if you have the ability to work with them. If not, you have two more traditional choices along with a third for special circumstances.\n- JPG (or JPEG): This is the standard format for normal images without transparency.\n- PNG: Portable Network Graphics file format supports transparency so you can see “through” portions of the image to what is behind it. This format is larger than JPG images, but is useful for logos or other graphics with a background that has been removed.\n- GIF: These files are very large and only support 256 colors. They can still be handy to use once in a while if you have an image with some animation going on. Typically you won’t be saving images in this format, though.\nStill Confused? What now?\nGraphic design is a complex skill. It’s not just art, but a lot of technical information all mixed in, too. In fact, I run into situations when dealing with highly trained graphic designers from the print world who have trouble wrapping their heads around some of the various differences between print and web design. It’s not easy, but it can be learned.\nIn some cases, though – especially if a slick and consistent look and brand message are important to you, it might be worth your time to pay a professional to crop, scale, and optimize your images. It can seem pricey on the surface, but once you’ve tried it a few times, you can see that it takes a good eye, careful planning, and a knowledge of the tools you’re working with to make it all come together.\nOver the coming weeks and months, I’ll be posting more here at Equestics to help those who want to save the money and take the time to learn more about the basics of image optimization and prepping things for the web. I’m talking to various graphic designers now in hopes of getting them to contribute some articles to help you, as well.", "domain": "design"}

The instrument is, among else, able to find the number densities of particles within the atmosphere, to detect the size distribution, and determine chemical properties, such as refractive index. In order to achieve this, SPEX directly measures the (intensity) spectrum and the degree of polarization for visible light.\nIn order to measure the degree of polarization, SPEX uses a completely new technique, which is developed by members of the iSPEX team (Snik, Karalidi, & Keller(2009)). In stead of temporal modulation or spatial modulation, techniques described in the polarimetry page, SPEX uses the technique which we call spectral modulation. An extensive, technical description on spectral modulation can be found on the SPEX site of SRON.\nThe modulated spectrum\nWhenever the light is unpolarized, SPEX will measure a regular spectrum, as if it was nothing more than a spectrograph. This unmodulated spectrum is shown in the left plot of the image above. The upper band shows a color spectrum, similar to what we would see with our eyes. The graph below plots the light intensity against the color, or wavelength. The wavelengths of the graph roughly correspond to the colors in the upper band.\nHowever, as soon as the light becomes polarized, the spectrum is superimposed with a synusoidal pattern, as shown in the right plot of the above picture. Dark and bright areas interchange one another across the spectrum. We call this a modulated spectrum, where the synsoidal pattern is the modulation.\nThe amplitude of the synusoidal pattern is an indication of the fraction of light that is polarized. Completely polarized light will thus have a maximum amplitude to the modulation, which can be recognized for its minima reaching the zero intensity line. The opposite, where the light is fully unpolarized shows no modulation at all, i.e. the normal spectrum. Any degree of polarization between 0 and 1 (between completely polarized and unpolarized) yield a modulation with a shallower modulation.\nThe direction in which the light is polarized can also be determined from the modulated spectrum. Change in this direction will cause a (phase)shift of the synusoidal pattern across the spectrum.\nSPEX optical design\nThe SPEX concept consists of four basic elements, briefly described below.\n1: quarter wave plate\nThe quarter wave plate is not the most fundamental element. Some polarization directions (or angles) are even left completely unaffected. The purpose of this waveplate is to change the linear polarization for specific polarization angles into circular polarization. This is needed to make sure that the (initial linear) polarization angle will be modulated by the next element, the multi-order waveplate.\nThe effect is that incident light that is polarized in any random direction will always be modulated by the multi-order waveplate.\n2: multi order waveplate\nThis element is primarily responsible for the spectral modulation. Different from the quarter wave plate is that the phase shift (change of polarization) depends on the color (wavelength) of the light.\nIn other words, the change in polarization angle caused by this waveplate is different for each wavelength. This causes a difference in polarization angle between two separate wavelengths of 90º.\nConceptual drawing of the SPEX optical design. Of the incident horizontally polarized beam (indicated by the arrows), only certain colors keep this horizontal polarization, while the polarization angle of other colors is transformed by the multi order waveplate into vertical polarization. Only vertically polarized colors are transmitted by the polarizer.\nSimilar to the other polarimetric methods, finally, a polarizer is used.\nAs we described in the caption of the conceptual drawing above, the polarization angle of one wavelength can be perpendicular to the polarization angle of another wavelength. When the latter angle is exactly aligned with the polarization axis of the polarizer, this color will be fully transmitted, while the first color will be fully blocked by the polarizer, because it’s polarization angle is perpendicular to the polarizer.\nSince the modulation of the light beam is spectral by nature, we can only observe it after we look at each color seperately. That is why the SPEX concept needs a spectrograph at the end of the light path. The modulation of the light that is caused by the previous elements can then be seen in the spectrum that is created and measured by this spectrograph.", "domain": "design"}

Save My Spot! is an app by LifeLabs created to reduce wait times for customers without an appointment. However, usability issues within the app add difficulty for users in the booking process.\nStudies have shown that it takes less than a few seconds for visitors to form an important first impression of an app. One study found that 94% of visitors would reject a website or app, or even mistrust a company based on its design-related aspects like clutter, poor error prevention, and inconsistency, which affect user engagement long-term. Source\nI used Jakob Nielsen's 10 Usability Heuristics to examine the interface and judge the app's compliance with the recognized usability principles. Then, we rated each defiance on a scale from 0 (no usability problem) to 4 (usability catastrophe). We used the design prioritization matrix to identify which issues should be redesigned first.\nThe main and only task flow of this app is checking-in to a LifeLabs. This main task consists of subtasks including:\nHere are 4 examples of the Heuristic Evaluation:\nThe app allows users to make false or unwanted decisions. Without proofreading, users can check-in with the wrong information with no warnings.\nTo add an error message when users enter an invalid phone number and to grey out the ‘Check In’ button when invalid entries exist.\nThere are no \"emergency exits\" to leave the unwanted state. This may result to users pulling a \"no-show\" and affecting wait time accuracy.\nAdd a secondary button that allows users to cancel their booking.\nFor small screens, the primary button is usually located on the right side while the secondary is on the left. Users may accidentally cancel their check-in as their thumbs naturally tap the right.\nPlace the secondary button, 'Cancel', on the left and 'Done' on the right.\nThere is no address in the pin after the confirmation. Therefore, users must rely on recall when they see the map to see the address of their check-in location.\nMaintain the LifeLabs lab location name on the pin and make the check-in location visually significant.\nDesign Prioritization Matrix\nSince I did not have access to LifeLab's official UI library, I built my own with existing elements, components, and branding within the app. I used screenshots of the app and Figma to trace UI components and used various plugins, such as Redlines, to build a functional UI library.\nFor elements and components that LifeLabs did not already have, I took inspiration from the the LifeLabs website and everyday apps such as Google Maps. This allowed me to work off of existing mental models to make the features understandable.\nCreated smaller map pins for both check-in and appointment-based LifeLabs for the zoomed out map state\nAdded an autocomplete feature with suggestions based on the shared GPS location\nRedesigned map pins to ensure consistency and relevancy of information.\nAdded a filter feature to only show locations that have a check-in option, as well as locations open now and appointment only.\nHid the location hours in a toggle list & used icons to balance negative space\nOrganized each section to look consistent\nAdded an error message and visual indicator when users enter invalid information& button to check-in is greyed out\nAdded a cancel button to allow users to cancel their booking in the event of a mistake, providing an exit.\nAdded a clear visual indicator of checked-in confirmation and simplified instructions.\nAdded a confirmation card at the top of the map to provide a visual cue of checked-in status and location.\nAdded a clear visual indicator of checked-in status and simplified instructions when lab location is tapped.\nIt was important to refer back to the existing UI library when building new screens to create consistency within the app. I often had to remind myself that this exercise is about usability and not branding so all efforts should go towards improving the usability of the app.\nWorking in a partnership required constant communication and organization. Before starting the project, it was helpful to outline expectations and standards (such as naming systems) to set us off on the right foot.\nI would like to conduct usability test with LifeLabs patients to ensure that the new UI changes did not negatively affect usability or raise new concerns.\nSince the Save My Spot! app has a wide range of users and level of technology fluency, I would like to create a 'What's New' modal or onboarding tutorial for new and returning users. This way, the new features can be smoothly be adopted by LifeLabs patients.", "domain": "design"}

These cases illustrate the potential of APIs to extend the capabilities of a platform and to create a community of developers around it.\nDesigning Your API for Extensibility and Scalability\nPrinciples of RESTful API Design\nDesigning a RESTful API requires adherence to key principles that ensure the API is efficient, flexible, and user-friendly. Uniform Interface is one of the fundamental principles, which dictates that the API should provide a consistent way of accessing and manipulating resources. This includes using standard HTTP verbs and returning predictable resource representations.\n- Statelessness: Each request from the client to the server must contain all the information needed to understand and complete the request. The server should not store any session state.\n- Client-Server Separation: The client application and server application should act independently of each other, allowing both to evolve separately without any dependency.\n- Layered System: The API should be structured in layers, with each layer having a specific function. This can improve scalability and security.\n- Cacheable Responses: Whenever possible, responses should be defined as cacheable to improve client-side performance.\nBy focusing on these principles, developers can create APIs that are not only robust and performant but also stand the test of time in terms of maintainability and future growth.\nEnsuring API Security and Compliance\nIn the API-centric business landscape, security and compliance are non-negotiable. As APIs expose business functionalities to external developers and applications, they become a potential vector for security breaches. To mitigate these risks, it’s essential to adopt a robust security framework that encompasses authentication, authorization, encryption, and regular security audits.\n- Authentication: Verify the identity of users and services accessing the API.\n- Authorization: Ensure users have permission to perform actions or access data.\n- Encryption: Protect data in transit and at rest from eavesdropping or tampering.\n- Security Audits: Conduct regular assessments to identify and rectify vulnerabilities.\nBy embedding security considerations into the API design and development process, organizations can create a secure and compliant ecosystem that fosters trust among users and partners.\nCompliance with industry standards and regulations, such as GDPR, HIPAA, or PCI-DSS, is also critical. It not only protects users’ data but also shields the company from legal and financial repercussions. Establishing clear policies and procedures for data handling, privacy, and security will help in maintaining the highest standards of compliance.\nLeveraging API Gateways for Management\nAPI gateways serve as the critical linchpin in managing the traffic between clients and services, offering a centralized point of control for routing, authentication, and monitoring. They enable fine-grained access control and provide valuable analytics that inform business decisions.\n- Centralized Authentication & Authorization\n- Rate Limiting & Throttling\n- API Version Management\n- Analytics & Usage Reporting\nBy abstracting the complexity of microservices and backend systems, API gateways simplify the developer experience, making it easier to consume APIs. They also facilitate the implementation of changes and updates without disrupting the client applications.\nThe use of API gateways allows for the seamless scaling of API operations, accommodating an increasing number of API calls without compromising performance. This ensures that as your SaaS grows, your API remains reliable and efficient, fostering a positive developer experience and customer satisfaction.\nMonetizing Your API\nAPI Pricing Models\nChoosing the right pricing model is crucial for the success of your API-centric SaaS. The goal is to strike a balance between value for your users and profitability for your business.

They have built their platforms with APIs at the core, allowing them to easily expand their offerings and integrate with a wide range of third-party services.\nWhat are some best practices for designing RESTful APIs for extensibility and scalability?\nBest practices for RESTful API design include using HTTP methods appropriately, leveraging status codes, providing meaningful error messages, implementing versioning, and ensuring the API is stateless. Consistent naming conventions and a focus on resource-oriented design also contribute to API extensibility and scalability.\nHow can SaaS companies effectively monetize their APIs?\nSaaS companies can monetize their APIs through various pricing models, such as pay-per-use, subscription-based access, freemium models with premium features, or even revenue sharing with developers who build on their platform. It’s important to align the pricing model with the value provided and the target market’s expectations.\nWhat are some strategies for marketing an API-centric SaaS product?\nMarketing an API-centric SaaS product involves identifying the target audience, creating comprehensive and user-friendly documentation, engaging in API evangelism to build a developer community, and leveraging success stories and case studies.

Specifically, about 10 essential fundamental building blocks your freelancer website needs.\nReady to start creating? Lets Go!\nWebsite Building Block #1: Your Logo\nYour freelance business needs a logo because it is a visual representation of your brand. Often a logo is the first impression your clients have, so its important your logo is memorable.\nYour logo should be:\nThere are a few ways you can design your logo:\n1.Design Your Logo By Hand\nMake a brief sketch of your logo, then use an online platform like Canva to bring your image to life. Canva is great because its free, online, and customizable. To help your creative process you can use Canva’s templates and upload your own images, fonts, and graphics.\nTo use Canva first go to Canva.com and search for logo.\nSecond, pick out a template to structure your logo design.\nCustomize your template with the endless elements Canva offers. From images, photos, charts, illustrations, and fonts Canva has it all.\nTo download your template, click the download button on the right. Select the file type you would like and Canva will download your first design for free. They offer a 30-day free trial for new users!\nAfter going through a series of questions, Tailor Brands will generate a logo for you. The logo is customizable. Just click the “customize” button and you will be able to edit the image, color, font, and size.\nWhen you are happy with your logo, you will need to purchase. We recommend just a basic plan which comes with the PNG of your logo. However, one benefit of the premium plan is the business card generator!\n3. Hire A Freelance Graphic Designer\nYou can list your job on Upwork or Freelancer and let various graphic designers pitch their services. In addition, you can search for a freelancer on Fiverr. Personally, I hired a freelancer on Upwork and loved the results. There are a few things to remember when hiring a freelancer.\nCheck Their Portfolio: Peruse their past work to have an idea of the extent of their skills and knowledge.\nCheck Their Testimonials: See what previous clients say regarding communication, timeliness, and attention to detail. The last thing you want is a freelancer to ghost you in the middle of your project or design your logo incorrectly.\nCheck Out Their Website: I recommend only hiring freelancers with a personal website because it provides a greater understanding of their personality.\nRead Their Pitch Carefully: Look for spelling and grammar mistakes that could indicate a lack of detail. Make sure the tone is professional and they use the lingo of their trade.\nSet Clear Deadlines and Expectations: Make sure both of you understand the project’s length, cost’s, and final result.\nWhere you place your logo on your website is largely up to you. We recommend you put your logo on your landing page, portfolio, hire me pages, and professional email. More details on these pages soon. Keep reading!\nWebsite Building Block #2: Your Blog\nYour freelancer website should absolutely have a blog. If you are not convinced why you should have one I have a more in depth article explaining why your freelancer business needs one.\nYour blog will be the key stone of your content marketing strategy. The content you create helps establish your brand, build a loyal following, and ultimately sell services or products.\nWebsite Building Block #3: Your About Me Page\nDisclaimer alert: your about me page is not really about you!\nThough your about me page should have a professional photo of you, it should not have a long story about how you became a freelancer, your life struggles, or your dreams, etc. Bluntly, clients really don’t care about your life’s details. What they do care about are the services you will provide them.\nYour about me page is really your “Elevator Pitch Page.”\nAn elevator pitch is a brief sales pitch that succinctly sums up why someone should hire you. Here are my steps to creating a stellar elevator pitch:\nAddress the consumer’s problem upfront\nOffer a solution to the consumer’s problem\nBriefly describe your solution\nClose with a call to action\nHere is the very first elevator pitch on my writers website:\nCreating content for your blog is time consuming hard work and you’re not getting anywhere fast.\nI have a solution – let me help you!\nHi, I’m Demeris, a professional freelance writer, photo editor, and web designer with over three years of experience. I create content for your websites, businesses, and social media accounts.\nMy content is creative, professional, and most importantly, it converts by increasing traffic and engagement. Ultimately, my content generates more leads, sales, and money for you.\nEmail me today to receive a quote on your next project.\nBOOM. The sales pitch address my audience’s pain points – its hard work to create content when you have little to no time. Then I offer a solution – I can help because I offer content creation services. I express my skills and value – my content will make you a profit. Finally I ask my consumer, to take action – email me.\nHere is a screen shot of our current about me page, broken down visually for you.\nPRO TIP: Place your call to action in a button or link, that will link your about me page to your connect page so your clients have a clear way to contact you.\nIn sum, your about me page should have three things:\nA Professional Photo of You\nYour Elevator Pitch\nA Call to Action Button or Link\nNext, you will use the elevator pitch template to design your “Hire Me” page.\nWebsite Building Block #4: Your Hire Me Page\nYour hire me page is really just a “Resume Page.”\nLike your about me page, your hire me page should be formatted like an elevator pitch, with additional details about your skills and experiences.\nThe structure of your hire me page should go like this:\nConfront consumer problem\nOffer a solution\nYour brief intro\nDescriptions of your services\nList of relevant skills & knowledge\nDescribe how your skills will be valuable\nList of experiences, projects, and awards\nProof of your work\nA call to action\nHere is an example of our current hire me page visually broken down for you. The order of the images correspond with the order of the placement on our website.\nYour hire me page is the page that clients will read the most. We recommend putting extra work into this page and editing it via these guidelines:\nUser Experience: Make sure the page looks clean. All your headers and fonts match, your photos are high resolution, and all the links work properly.\nSpelling and Grammar: Make sure there aren’t typos or grammar mistakes. Typos look unprofessional and easily indicate to a client your lack of detail.\nYour as Detailed as Possible: Statistics are very persuasive. Inject them wherever you can. You boosted a clients social media following? By how much?\nOnce you create a hire me page, you need a page of proof to back up your claims. Hence, your portfolio and testimonial pages!\nWebsite Building Block #5: Your Portfolio & Testimonials Page\nYour portfolio and testimonial pages are the proof of your skills. Clients will look at the quality of your portfolio and decide if your skills and expertise are relevant to their project.\nYour portfolio should include the following:\nYour name and logo at the top of the page\nImages and written descriptions of your skills\nNames of previous employers and clients\nA list of relevant skills\nEducation and Certificates\nCall To Action Button\nYou can display your portfolio however you like but we recommend making all your projects easy to skim through. A grid or stacked layout works great for a portfolio. Check out a snippet our portfolio for an example:\nOne of the strengths of having your own website is your portfolio. All of your work is organized into one easy place clients can reference when you apply for jobs or pitch your services. Say a client reads your portfolio, likes your work, and believes you would be a good fit for his job, what does he do next?\nHe tries to contact you, so you definitely need a connect or contact me page for clients to reach out to you.\nWebsite Building Block #6: Your Connect Page\nYou readers and clients need a way to contact you if they want to leave feedback, write a testimonial, or hire you.\nTo do this you must create an email form and link it to you freelancer email. I will briefly show you how to do this in Squarespace and WordPress.\nFor WordPress we believe Caolan O’Connor’s Mailchimp Sign Up Form For WordPress video is perfect for beginners. Watch this video to learn how to set up mail chip email services and connect it you WordPress account:\nOnce you have your connect form set up, readers and clients will be able to communicate with you through your email. Make sure to check your freelancer email daily and respond to questions within 24 hours. Good communication is key to building rapport with your followers and clients.\nWebsite Building Block #7: Your Landing Page\nA landing page is the first page, readers “land on” when they visit your site. In marketing terms a landing page is a “lead generator page” and its sole purpose is to turn traffic into followers and leads. A landing page is a must have to start building your audience and landing more clients faster.\nHow do landing pages convert traffic?\nWell designed landing pages convert because they are a visually stunning first impression of your business. Landing pages with images and videos elicit an emotional response in readers, which influences them to take action. Testimonials and logos of brands offer immediate proof that a company is established or a professional is experienced. Furthermore, landing pages are specifically designed with one target audience in mind. Headlines, images, and call to actions are geared to help a specific consumer take action.\nHow do you design a landing page?\nA landing page has these key elements:\nYour Service or Product\nCall to action\nSign Up Form\nRead further and follow these steps to create your first simple but effective landing page.\n1. Write A Catchy Headline\nA short one sentence tagline about your services or products.\n2. Briefly Describe Your Attributes\nSimilar to an elevator pitch your attributes should touch on pain points, features, and benefits of your services and products.\n3. Include A Picture Of Your Service Or Product\nIf you are offering your service we recommend including a picture of you performing your service. If its your product then a picture of your course, ebook, etc. You images should be high resolutions, clean, and precise. Nothing looks worse than pixilated images!\n4. Create A Call To Action Button With Incentive\nMake it easy for readers to convert to potential customers or leads by including a “sign up” form on your page. Remember it is all about the customers, so you need to include an incentive. Incentives could be a free course or book, discounts to your products, or a free quote.\nYour call to action is the highlight of your landing page. Make it front and center of the stage and remove any distracting buttons or images from around it. Make it pop with catchy colors and designs.\n5. Add A Navigation Bar\nYou want to direct consumers to the rest of your website. You can do this by including your navigation bar. However, you do not want your nav bar to distract from your call to action. Minimize your bar or put it at the bottom of the page.\n6. Make It Simple\nThere is no need to go crazy with designs on your landing page. You want your page to be as transparent as possible for customers. Make sure your sign up form is obvious, your photos are high resolution, and all your buttons work.\nWe really like Neil Patel’s landing page template and its a perfect guideline for beginners:\nIf you are struggling to design your landing page you can also use templates and optimizers to make sure your landing page is maximizing conversions. Unbounce, Landingi, and Leadpages are all great online tools and resources to help you build a killer page.\nWebsite Building Block #8: Your Newsletter Sign-Up Form\nYou may think that emailing is dead, but in fact email marketing is the corner stone to many successful business’s marketing plans. Approximately 3 billion people world wide use email to communicate, thats about half of the worlds population! Most of your readers are using email, so you should be using email to communicate with them.\nEmail marketing works because it is:\nPersonal to your reader\nDirects your audience to new content\nSubtly markets your new content\nEncourages readers to buy\nAn email newsletter is a versatile tool which keeps you connected to you readers. In addition, you readers continue to receive value in the form of fresh content not found on your blog. Your email list is your golden egg because they are people who have “opted-in” to receive your content. Readers that “opt-in” are much more likely to become loyal followers, buy products, and share your content because they see your value and choose to consume your content.\nNot quite sure how to set up an email newsletter campaign with Mailchimp? No worries we got you covered!\n1. Set up your newsletter campaign with MailChimp. Check out this video from Wiyre:\nFor Squarespace, you must add Mailchimp into the form itself, no plugins required. Watch this video for Squarespace:\nOnce you create your newsletter and understand how to add an email form to your site, then you want to add the newsletter form to your site!\nPlace your newsletter form at your footer of all your blog posts and the side bar of your website! You want readers to obviously see your newsletter form when they are browsing your site so they can easily sign up to receive your email content.\nWebsite Building Block #9: Your Social Media Links\nSocial media makes distributing content easier than ever before. In minutes you can upload your content and platforms will automatically share it to potentially thousands of viewers at no work or cost to you.\nSimilar to email marketing, social media allows you to connect with customers. An established social media presence gives you authority. Today savvy customers take time to look up brands on social media like Facebook and Instagram. When your social media pages are empty, you will immediately look illegitimate and readers will bounce from your page.\nStart building an online presence today with Facebook and Linkedin. Once you have your accounts, link your social media pages to you website to encourage readers to follow you on other channels as well. Put you social media links and logos in your footer, side bar, and contact pages.\nWebsite Building Block #10: Your Design\nKeep your first website design simple. You mantra is, “less is more.” Not only do you save yourself a lot of time and confusion, you make it easier for your readers to browse your site. User experience (UX) is all about how a page looks, feels, and functions. Lets break these down further:\nLooks: People are visual consumers. A simple but eye catching design encourages users to dig deeper.\nFeels: Your page should be a pleasurable experience to use. Easy and intuitive designs elicit positive reactions.\nFunctions: All of your buttons, links, and animations need to work to establish credibility and trust.\nTo start, keep your designs and color palates simple. White space is your friend when writing blog posts. All your images should be high resolution and clear. Make sure that all your buttons, links, and forms work properly.\nAs you grow, you can slowly reformat your website with more animations and pages, but initially resist the urge to bite off more than you can chew.\nOwning your own website and creating your own blog is empowering! The creative process of designing and customizing your blog is exciting and very rewarding.\nWe leave you with this final idea – ultimately your website is a business tool. Keep your audience in mind while putting your website together. Include elements that in the long run bring in more clients for you such as a logo, landing page, hire me page, connect, about me, newsletter sign up, and social media links.\nLastly, don’t get too caught up in the fine details. A simple but functional site is more powerful than a complicated and non-functional site. Get your website up and running and start pumping out content to fill your pages!\nDo you need any help creating one of these essential elements for your freelance website?

Therefore when looking at a bedroom interior design should take time to careful plan just what you want in order to achieve a tranquil and peaceful haven away from modern living. Remember a bedroom is the most personal room to you in your home as it is a room where you can relax and dream.\nBeds, when not in use, can be disguised in a variety of ways:\nConvertible chair- and sofa-beds are sold in their thousands and are extremely popular, but be aware that some seating comfort may be compromised by the bed mechanism.\nThe fold-away type which emerges, ready-made, from a wall cupboard is easy to erect and is unobtrusive when not in use.\nA fold-up camp bed is cheap and useful for visiting children, but may not offer sufficient comfort for an adult. There is also the problem of housing the bed when it is not in use.\nA day bed is for many the most satisfactory solution. When dressed with bolsters during the day, it provides useful seating and can be handsomely draped for decorative impact. Bedding may be contained within drawers beneath the divan or in a separate blanket box or chest.\nIf your need is to provide for two guests, one of the best solutions is a bed with collapsible legs which slips beneath a second bed when not required.\nLighting in this dual-purpose room needs to be carefully thought through if it is to serve both uses adequately. Incorporating free-standing lights such as table lamps and standard lamps will allow you to make swift minor adjustments to your arrangement. Always ensure that there is some form of lighting which can be switched from the bedside.\nA wash basin in a guest room is a boon, giving independence to the guest and relieving pressure on a family bathroom। A nearby radiator could have a temporary rack attached for holding towels and a folding screen might be employed to hide the basin when it's not in use.", "domain": "design"}

A lot so, that it’s uncommon that I get actually excited a couple of new pair of headphones. That, nevertheless, occurred after I received a bundle from Focal — a bundle that I knew included the Focal Utopia headphones.\nThe Focal Utopia headphones are imagined to be one of the best of what Focal can provide in a pair of headphones — and it’s an bold endeavor. Focal is understood for its high-end gear, however it clearly has to significantly impress to warrant the value tag of an eye-watering $4,000.\nIn fact, given the premium supplies and high-tech design, they might be definitely worth the cash — and we’ve had the enjoyment of placing them to the check over the previous few weeks to search out out for ourselves.\nFocal has been constructing high-end audio merchandise for many years now, and it reveals. Externally, the headphones are constructed with lovely metallic silver accents, gentle but robust leather-based, and a premium look all through. Focal even makes use of carbon fiber for a super-strong body — and whereas we might by no means advocate utilizing these as headphones you are taking out and about, a robust construct helps be certain that the headphones final for years of day-to-day use and the unintentional drop every so often. Be aware: we didn’t drop-test the Focal Utopia headphones, and we advocate being extremely cautious if you find yourself getting your palms on them.\nWhereas some like a number of coloration, I respect what a glossy black construct can provide. Whereas the headphones do have a number of silver accents within the type of the Focal brand on the ear cup and a silver speaker grill, aside from that, these headphones are black-on-black — and it’s lovely.\nAll the things else concerning the headphones screams premium too. The cables are thick and professional-grade, and it terminates in a Neutrik 1/4-inch plug. There’s loads of gentle padding within the ear cups and underneath the headscarf, and that padding is roofed with lambskin leather-based.\nThe design of those headphones extends underneath the hood. The large-ticket function right here is the beryllium drivers, that are mounted barely off-center and deep into the ear cups, in an try to supply a wider soundstage. We’ll get into how they fare a bit of later within the overview, however even with the driving force design the ear cups aren’t overly thick. They’re massive, to make sure, however not unnecessarily so.\nFinally, once you’re spending such an enormous sum of cash on a pair of headphones, you need them to sound superb — however an amazing design helps too. The Focal Utopia headphones look costly — and so they’re constructed with clearly premium supplies too.\nThe gentle padding, lambskin leather-based, and delightful construct efficiently makes for a snug listening expertise — which is nice information contemplating the truth that as soon as you set these headphones on, you gained’t need to take them off. All of the tech underneath the hood does make for a heavy pair of headphones, and these are available in at 490 grams, or a bit of over 17 ounces, and that may be felt — however not as a lot as you’d count on.\nRegardless of the heavy weight, we had been capable of hearken to music on these headphones for hours on finish, so don’t let the burden put you off an excessive amount of. Coupled with the soft-feeling leather-based and good quantity of padding, and you’ve got a reasonably comfy match certainly.\nOn to the primary occasion — the sound high quality. Let’s get the apparent out of the best way: the Focal Utopia headphones sound unbelievable. Coupled with a Feliks Audio Espressivo amplifier and at occasions an Audio Technica vinyl participant, the headphones ship an ultra-wide soundstage, superbly pure frequency response, and a ton of element. Audiophiles, take notice — in the event you’re on the lookout for arguably the best-sounding pair of headphones you’ll find, the Focal Utopia headphones might be it.\nNormally once we overview shopper headphones we take a look at bass, midrange, and high-end individually, however there’s virtually no level in doing that right here — these headphones do all of it properly. It’s nonetheless value a shot although — the bass response is punchy and fast. Some headphones react a bit of slower to the low finish, however these headphones don’t actually fall into that lure — which is an efficient factor. Bass response can be very pure. It’s not excessive, as shopper headphones would possibly are likely to get, however it’s nonetheless clear-sounding and detailed.\nThe phrase “detailed” could develop into a theme right here. The midrange boasts loads of readability, with a natural-sounding heat to the low-mids and a sure air to the high-mids that’s uncommon to search out within the headphone world.\nThe high-end completes the image. Transient response on the Focal Utopia headphones is unbelievable, whereas the imaging is extraordinarily exact. The headphones have the uncanny means to ship dynamics with ease — quiet, sloppy, laid-back jazz piano sounds simply nearly as good on these headphones as a rock observe that’s been lower to hell and again in recording.\nThe open-back design helps make for a extra pure really feel too. These headphones are constructed to be loved at house, with out a lot exterior noise, so don’t count on to have the ability to take these out in public.\nUltimately, the Focal Utopia headphones sound effortlessly unbelievable. Frequency response is tuned to close perfection, whereas the soundstage is big and the element is nearly unmatched.\nSo the Focal Utopia headphones are arguably an ideal pair — however there’s one different breathtaking factor about these headphones, and that’s the value.

To be successful in this\nmarketplace for the long-term, you need experienced designers who\nhave been in this industry for several years and have a knowledge of\nproduct successes and failures. Also, they have worked hard to\ncreate a network of relationships they can call on, such as editors\nand publishers, while working to build your business. Experienced\ndesigners insure that your needs are met on time, complete with\nprojects ready for photography with impeccable instructions.\nHowever, as with so many questions, there's no simple or single\nanswer. Like other consultants, craft designers vary in specialties\nand expertise. Before you search for the right designer, you must\ndecide what your needs are. That way you'll increase the likelihood\nof a successful, long-term business relationship.\nWe'll say it again: Every designer is different. There is no single\nstandard of measurement for craft design. Some designers only design\nwith products that are ready for market, while others will work\nclosely with your staff to develop a product or product line from\nconcept to launch. There are designers who only work within a\nspecific technique category such as scrapbooking, while others have\na wide range of skills and work in many different product\ncategories. Some simply create projects as needed, and others assist\nin marketing and/or sales support.\nThe larger the opportunity you have, the more you will need to\nprepare in order to narrow the field of candidates. Here are some\nsuggestions for starting the process:\nPlanning: Outline the tasks you wish the designer to execute.\nYou should have an idea of the time frame required, as well as the\nbudget you can apply to the efforts. It'll be most time efficient\nfor both parties for you to present this information to your\ncandidate prior to any meeting. Then the designer has sufficient\ntime to assess your project needs and gather examples of past work\nfor your review. Also, request background information and samples of\nBackground: Ask the designer about her specialties and\nexperiences working on a project similar to yours. An experienced\ndesigner will have a portfolio of published work, a brochure with\ncapabilities outlined, business cards, and business references.\nSkill/Knowledge Levels: If you are concerned about the\ndesigner's skill level or experience, ask for preliminary sketches\nor low resolution jpegs of a project in progress. Also, ask for\nsamples of project instructions.\nRelationship: Know the type of relationship you want. Will\nthe designer become an employee? Remain a freelancer to potentially\nwork with other vendors? Be under contract and not work with other\nvendors? Do you want/need exclusivity?\nFinances: Know what you're willing to pay and how you wish to\nbe billed. Openly discuss payment. There are many options, and the\ndesigner may want to know how she would be paid -- hourly, per\nproject, royalty, or a monthly retainer fee. In most instances, the\nleast expensive designer is not the best candidate. Experienced\ndesigners may cost more, but they will have a history in the\nindustry and will be able to apply that knowledge to your business.\nAdditional Expenses: Who will cover the cost of additional\nsupplies and shipping expenses? How would you prefer these expenses\nbe submitted? Will they need to be approved in advance?\nOnce you believe you've found the right candidate, consider these\nProject Needs: Be clear about your goals for the project. Be\nprecise about WHICH products you want to feature and HOW you want\nthem featured. For example, if you have a definitive marketing plan\nfor a product and do not want the product showcased any other way,\nyou must let the designer know.\nSome designers specialize in taking a new product and using it a\ncompletely different way; this may or may not be what you are\nlooking for. For example, \"I do not want our new glass paint\nused on any surface other than glass, as we do not want our consumer\nOn the other hand, experimentation might be exactly what you DO\nwant: \"I want you to take this glass paint that we have\nmanufactured for several years and see if you can come up with new\nuses for it; I am specifically interested to see if it could fit\ninto paper crafting.\"\nOnce they are developed, how will you use the designs? Designs for\ndifferent uses require forethought and planning. A knowledgeable\ndesigner will know how best to create a project to suit the specific\nbusiness needs, such as:\n1. Story boards for use in sales calls. These designs should\nshowcase the product's versatility and how the product will\nintegrate with the other products in the buyer's category.\n2. Project sheets. Will the design combine an existing\nproduct in your line with a new product release? Or highlight a line\n3. Packaging models: Designs need to be eye-catching,\ncolorful, beginner-level projects showcasing the products\nFormat: Be sure to provide the designer with the correct\ntemplates, word counts, or guidelines required for any instructional\nmaterials they will create for your business.\nDeadlines: Set deadlines for projects; this ensures that\nprojects will not get pushed aside and stagnate.\nAs in most business scenarios, clear and constant communication can\nmean the success in a design relationship, resulting in a win for\nthe business and a win for the designer. Great design will inspire\nconsumers to try your product vs. another.\nA Final Note.\nThe Society of Craft Designers is the only association for\ncraft designers. Each year SCD sponsors an educational seminar. The\n2003 event takes place in St. Louis October 8 - 11. This is a venue\nfor manufacturers, publishers, editors and designers to network and\nconduct business.

To avoid the many problems typical in the L-Band spectrum, the systems layout for larger systems will be very costly and complex.\nThis is due to the many active and passive components required in the system and the resulting mismatching and noise. In these high frequencies the transitional losses on all connections increase with time, making such systems unreliable and troublesome. Expansions of such systems (to include additional satellites or new devices such as PVR's) are very expensive and complicated.\nOne wire IF systems\nPros: Standard DSTV decoders can be used, single cable design and components are more cost effective than matrix system.\nCons: Very difficult to balance signal levels, high losses mean extra amps introducing noise. All amplifiers must include a slope adjustment. In these high frequencies the transitional losses on all connections increase with time. Such systems require a high amount of maintenance.\nDigital Conversion Systems\nPros: Ideal for medium to larger systems. As all signals are within the cable spectrum (47 to 862 MHz) signal levels can be maintained without problem. Depending on the component quality (domestic, commercial, professional), the systems are stable and reliable.\nThese system are software driven (none volatile memory) highly flexible and can be reprogrammed to changing requirements and additional services.\nCons: Require re-converters on the subscriber side and special LO settings. Depending on the decoder software, opposite polarities on the transponders are not necessarily, a problem. As full transponders are converted (minus roll off), large frequency chunks are required out of the available spectrum.\nThis could be improved if the decoders use self-seeking software. Additional services require adding a converter to the head end for each new transponder.\n64 and 128 QAM Transmodulation\nPros: This is the most economic way of transporting large numbers of digital services over cable TV networks.\nThe transmodulation technique converts the QPSK satellite signal to an 8MHz QAM modulated signal. The software driven, modular Head End System has a re-programmable NIT table and transponder split facility (enables the digital information of one heavily modulated transponder to be split over 2 8MHz channels).\nThere are no problems in adding additional services from various satellites to the system.\nCons: Requires QAM decoders.

The region's distinctive weather patterns, characterized by hot summers, mild winters, and periodic droughts, demand a strategic approach to plant selection. At Lawn John, we specialize in curating landscapes that are not only beautiful but also resilient and sustainable, tailored to thrive in Houston's unique environmental conditions.\nSelecting the right plants for Houston's climate goes beyond aesthetic preferences—it's about creating landscapes that are in harmony with the local ecosystem. This approach ensures that gardens are not only easier to maintain but also contribute positively to the environment. By focusing on drought-resistant landscaping, incorporating native plants, and planning for seasonal color, homeowners can enjoy vibrant gardens that enhance their outdoor living spaces year-round.\nIn the heart of Sugar Land, Texas, where the sun blazes and rainfall can be sporadic, creating a lush, vibrant landscape poses unique challenges. Lawn John, a leader in providing premier lawn care services, recognizes the necessity of adopting drought-resistant landscaping practices to maintain beautiful gardens that thrive in this demanding climate. Embracing xeriscaping principles and selecting the right plants are not just about conserving water; they're about fostering a sustainable relationship with the local environment, ensuring that your garden is not only resilient but also a haven for local biodiversity.\nXeriscaping, a landscaping philosophy designed to minimize water use, is particularly relevant in regions like Sugar Land. The key to successful xeriscaping lies in understanding the soil composition, improving it if necessary to enhance water retention and drainage, and choosing plants that are naturally adapted to dry conditions. Incorporating mulch into garden beds further reduces evaporation, retains soil moisture, and suppresses weed growth, contributing to the overall efficiency of water use in the garden.\nSelecting plants for a drought-resistant landscape involves focusing on native species and those adapted to arid environments. Succulents like Agave and Yucca, perennials such as Russian Sage and Lavender, and ornamental grasses, including Blue Grama Grass and Buffalo Grass, are all excellent choices for Sugar Land gardens. These plants not only survive but thrive in hot, dry conditions, requiring minimal supplemental watering once established. Integrating a variety of these plants can create a visually appealing landscape that is both vibrant and water-efficient.\nA unique tip from Lawn John for enhancing your drought-resistant landscape is to implement a drip irrigation system. This system delivers water directly to the base of each plant, reducing waste and ensuring that water goes exactly where it's needed. Coupled with a smart irrigation controller that adjusts watering based on weather conditions, this setup can significantly reduce water usage while keeping your garden healthy and hydrated.\nAs we consider the future of landscaping in Sugar Land, it's clear that drought-resistant practices are not just a trend but a necessary evolution in our approach to gardening. By adopting xeriscaping principles and carefully selecting appropriate plants, homeowners can create sustainable, water-efficient landscapes that stand up to the challenges of the local climate. Lawn John is committed to leading this charge, offering expertise and services that align with these environmentally conscious practices. Our dedication to sustainability, combined with our deep knowledge of local conditions, makes us the ideal partner for creating beautiful, resilient landscapes in Sugar Land.\nIn the thriving ecosystems of Sugar Land, Texas, native plants offer an array of benefits that extend far beyond their natural beauty. At Lawn John, we understand the significant advantages that native vegetation brings to landscaping projects, from reducing maintenance efforts and conserving water to supporting local wildlife. Leveraging the innate resilience and ecological compatibility of these plants, we can create landscapes that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also environmentally sustainable and beneficial for the local ecosystem.\nThe use of native plants in landscaping is grounded in their adaptability to the local climate and soil conditions. These plants have evolved to thrive in Sugar Land's specific environment, making them inherently more resilient to the area's weather patterns, pests, and diseases. This natural resilience translates into lower maintenance requirements for homeowners, as native plants typically require less supplemental watering, fertilizing, and pest control than their non-native counterparts. By incorporating these plants into landscaping designs, we can significantly reduce the need for chemical interventions, promoting a healthier and more sustainable garden ecosystem.\nIn regions like Sugar Land, where the climate can oscillate between periods of intense heat and sporadic rainfall, water conservation is a critical aspect of sustainable landscaping. Native plants, accustomed to the local precipitation patterns, are particularly adept at managing water usage efficiently. Their deep root systems enhance soil structure, improving water infiltration and retention, and reducing runoff. This not only minimizes the landscape's irrigation needs but also contributes to the conservation of valuable water resources, aligning with broader environmental conservation efforts.\nOne of the most compelling benefits of using native plants in landscaping is their role in supporting local wildlife. These plants provide essential habitats and food sources for a variety of local animals, including birds, bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects. By creating a biodiverse environment that mimics natural ecosystems, native plant gardens can become vibrant hubs of wildlife activity. This biodiversity not only enhances the ecological value of the landscape but also contributes to the overall health and balance of the local ecosystem.\nA valuable tip for incorporating native plants into your Sugar Land landscape is to plan your garden in layers. Start with a foundation of native grasses and groundcovers, add shrubs and perennials for mid-level interest, and finish with a canopy of native trees. This layered approach not only creates a visually appealing landscape but also mimics natural ecosystems, providing diverse habitats and resources for local wildlife.\nIn conclusion, the advantages of using native plants in landscaping are manifold. From reducing maintenance and conserving water to supporting local wildlife, native plants offer a sustainable and ecologically responsible approach to beautifying outdoor spaces. At Lawn John, we're dedicated to promoting the use of native Sugar Land plants in our landscaping projects, helping our clients achieve beautiful, resilient, and environmentally friendly gardens. Our commitment to leveraging the benefits of native vegetation reflects our broader mission to enhance the beauty and sustainability of Sugar Land's landscapes, one garden at a time.\nWith passion at our core and expertise in every tool, we turn your landscaping visions into vibrant realities. Step into a renewed outdoor space where dreams take root and flourish.\nAt Lawn John, we believe every green space tells a story.

There are a lot more furniture buyers out there than there are smart furniture buyers, though! This article gives you expert advice on the topic.\nIf you are seeking out old furniture, ensure you examine its underside so that you ensure stability. Furniture looks good on top, but not necessarily underneath. Older furniture can be plagued with things such as rust or even dry rot.\nWhen you're thinking of buying furniture for where you live, you need to think carefully about the colors you're working with. Keep in mind that really bold colors are tough to match. Neutral colors will go with anything; use patterns and bright colors on the accessories instead.\nAn option that works great for families that eat at dinner tables is buying a type of tile top table. These tables are simple to clean and they are able to be disinfected. There are a lot of options, such as chairs and bench seating, which make them a good idea for busy families.\nYou should find pieces that offer multiple uses for a home office. For instance, you can use an amoire for storing many different things. When the printer is not in use, the armoire can be closed, keeping things neat.\nWhen purchasing a sofa, make sure that you inspect the frame. You want thicker wood, at least an inch or so. You will have a squeaky couch if the board is thinner. Sit on and more around on any sofa you are considering purchasing.\nIt is a good idea to choose furnishings that are neutral in color. This will give you a great deal of flexibility in accessories and other items of decor. You can have more choices when you use neutral furniture and they tend to match decor better. Lots of neutral options are available to work with any home plan or decorating style.\nThe best color choices for living room furniture include neutral colors like tan, ecru, grey or black. When you select neutrals, you can change up the look of everything else, such as picking brightly colored throw pillows, paints and accessories. You can also change things for just a little bit of money.\nWhen buying a sofa that has a pattern you need to ensure that the fabric is aligned correctly. If an item of upholstered furniture is cheap, you may find the pattern askew at the seams. Only choose a piece where the pattern lines up. Don't buy it if the tailoring is poor.\nMake sure you plan a specific budget before you go furniture shopping. There are all sorts of prices for similar pieces of furniture. You might end up bankrupt if you aren't prepared. Keeping a figure in your head is a great way to make sure you don't overspend.\nFurnishing a house can be a big task, especially if you are not well informed about what to look for and what to avoid. It is important to be armed with the right information before making any solid decisions. Use this resource to help guide you the next time you are shopping for furniture.", "domain": "design"}

I did not know the secrets of good typography, but I was aware of the mysterious power of a good story. Books were my favorite objects long before I dreamed that one day I would design them. In fact, I loved books even before I could read them (that smell of ink and paper!), but it was the discovery of reading—that alchemy of letters coming together to reveal words, unravel sentences and tell stories—that transformed THE BOOK into the holy of holies for me. It is still the same today.\n“Books were my favorite objects long before I dreamed that one day I would design them..”\nWhen I first learned to read I did not realize that part of the ease with which I turned page after page of my first “grown-up” books, the ones with flowing text and no images, was due to the quality of the typesetting—a light grid with nice leading and kerning, well-planned margins and, above all, good typography.\nI still didn’t know that, no matter how well a narrative arc is resolved and how enthralling the characters are, if the book’s layout isn’t good, the reader may be tempted to put it down in the first chapter. Today I’m sure I never finished the copy of “Doctor Zhivago” that sat on my parents’ bookshelf because the font was so tiny and poorly chosen that it created a dense, unpleasant block of text. We can also speculate here that the myriad of Russian patronymics were too much for me, but that didn’t bother me at all when I read a more modern, better-conceived edition of “The Idiot” that lived on the bottom of that same shelf. Was Pasternak a worse storyteller than Dostoievski? Probably, but that’s not the point. What happened was that poor Doctor Zhivago was a victim of bad layout options. And that is saying it all.\n“… no matter how well a narrative arc is resolved and how enthralling characters are, if the book’s layout isn’t good, the reader may be tempted to put it down in the first chapter.”\nToday, with the huge variety of free and paid fonts available, it can be a challenge to start designing a book. Should we follow the traditional path or be bolder? It is worth remembering that creativity and originality are important, but when it comes to book-design, easy reading should always be at the top of our concerns. So my advice on tackling the intimidating blank page is just this: Don’t reinvent the wheel. If it has been done before and with good results, learn from it, listen to the voice of experience. For classic typesetting, classic fonts. And for me that means serifs. They never fail.\n“ …creativity and originality are important, but when it comes to book-design, easy reading should always be at the top of our concerns.”\nThese are “my” five fonts, the ones I trust and love to use to ensure simple, elegant layouts and optimal reading from the first page to the last. Besides that, they are beautiful. Can we ask for more?\nI fell in love with this serif font while still in college. At the time I used it for all my art history essays because it’s a font that provides great readability even in small points. (Yes, I always wrote a lot more than I should…) Besides, for a font that has been around since 1750, it looks very modern and sharp. Baskerville makes beautiful, easy-to-read pages with a nice mix of a traditional/modern feel, making it perfect for works of fiction. I also love to use it for titles, posters and book covers, but it is in typesetting that its excellent qualities stand out. It is available in several typologies but I have never needed more than regular, bold and italic. Keep it simple…\nThank you, John Baskerville!\nThe classic of the classics, or, since we’re talking about a French font, “La crème de la crème!” Jorge dos Reis, who was my teacher at Faculdade de Belas Artes de Lisboa, and who taught me to love typography, used to say that one can guess the nationality of the font maker based on the design of the font itself. Garamond is a good example of that. When we look at that capital G, the figure of a very French Claude Garamond pops out, with effortless sophistication and loads of charm. And if we consider the italics…“Oh, la, la!”\nThis was the first font I got used to recognizing as a text block. Most of the books on our shelves are set in Garamond. Go take a peak. And there’s always that nice warm feeling of opening a book set with this font, even if we don’t understand right away why it feels so good. As popular as it is versatile, neutral and of simple beauty, it never lets us down…Great for that 400 page tome, the font is available in six weights in the Adobe Garamond Pro version, so there are no excuses not to use it all the time. That’s what I do.\nThe 1960’s gave us more than social revolutions, psychedelic patterns and eternal songs. In the field of typography, Sabon means to Jan Tschichold what “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” means to the Beatles. “Rolling Stone” considers Sgt. Pepper’s to be the best album ever cut and I don’t overstate the connection in considering Sabon to be one of the 5 Best Fonts Ever—for book typesetting. After following the New Typography movement coming from Bauhaus, and even becoming one of the greatest representatives of this style, the German typographer Tschichold returned to his origins after reaching the height of his career. He created what is considered to be the most elegant of the Roman style re-inventions. Reminiscent of Garamond, Sabon is considered romantic, feminine, even, and this may be because of the clarity of its modern lines and the sweet reading it provides. Not that women are always clear…or sweet. But you get the idea.\nIf you have a thick text in hand, Sabon is always a great bet!\nIf Garamond is the quintessential French font, Caslon is the greatest representative of classic British fonts. Considered the first original English font, it was created in 1722 by William Caslon and was so popular at the time that it crossed the Atlantic and became the font in which the first printed United States Declaration of independence was set. Impressive, right? It has known some less popular periods, but never truly ceased to be used. A great favorite of the Arts & Crafts movement in the nineteenth century, it is still preferred today by many designers who love the solemnity it adds to the text, immediately turning any page into something “serious.” Although not a font that fools around, we can use it without fear because its eighteenth-century class never fails us and has adapted beautifully to the twenty first century. Adobe’s new version (Adobe Caslon Pro) works great in digital media and remains lovely as always. I just used it to design a poetry book’s cover and pages and the layout turned out particularly good.\n5. Goudy Old Style\nThis list already includes French, English and German fonts…now comes the American! There are a lot of Goudy fonts, but here we are talking about Goudy Old Style – perfect for lengthy…and boring texts. This is a modern font, created by Frederic Goudy for the American Type Founders in 1915. Its main feature is being so, so LIGHT! Inspired in the Italian Renaissance, an influence much in vogue in the early twentieth century in the United States, this font is a result of the exhaustive study of sixteenth-century italics, which Goudy loved. Maybe that’s why, even when it’s in the regular version, it always seems to be about to take off… Italics, of course, are beautiful, but I especially love the clear tone of a full-text page. Even with tight leading and kerning, we can easily get a very nice looking text block with that…Old Style feeling! It’s mandatory to use at least once. No wonder the famous Harper’s Bazaar magazine was originally set with this font.\nBonus font: Rongel\nAnd now, if I may, this is an out-of-box choice. Let’s add one more font to the list. First, a confession: I have never used this font myself, but I admire it a lot…from a distance. Rongel, is a font a Portuguese designer, Mário Feliciano, created. I first encountered it in Portuguese editions of Zadie Smith’s books “On Beauty ” and “Swing Time” designed by Henrique Cayate’s atelier and…what shall I say? It was love at first read!! It is a Spanish inspired font full of salero. Solid, elegant and very fun, with whimsical details to discover. It creates bold, attitude-packed, very expressive pages. Yet it never loses sight of that serif font classic tone. I love reading pages set in Rongel…or I really love Zadie Smith. Probably both! I am waiting for the perfect project to try it out. If you’re tempted also get to know it better here:\nNow that you know my preferences, why not share yours, too? Which fonts do you like for classic books? Any of these? What book have you read recently with a very good layout? Or, on the contrary, did you give up reading something because it was terrible? How do you choose the right font for each project?\nLet’s exchange ideas! 😉", "domain": "design"}

It supports flat and mountain planning operations and fruit tree operation modes to meet most operation needs. All manual, AB point, and route planning modes are available, and ordinary terrain operations are easily completed.\nThe PC2400 can balance the two 12S batteries of the drone at the same time. The working modes include fast charging, slow charging, battery storage, and charger housekeeping, so you can charge more worry-free. The LED battery level display interface is simple to operate and has One-button charging operation function to give users a better experience.\nThe Y16 Intelligent Flight Battery has a capacity of 22,000 mAh. It uses a high-strength rubber case design, which increases the safety of the battery. With the support of battery balancing technology, the power is stronger and the operating efficiency is improved.\n|Total weight (excluding battery)||16kg|\n|Standard take-off weight||36.8kg|\n|Maximum effective take-off weight||45kg（Near sea level）|\n|Hovering accuracy (good GPS signal)||EnableRTK：\nHorizontal ± 12 cm, vertical ± 12 cm\nRTK is not enabled：\nHorizontal ± 0.7 m, vertical ± 0.4 m (radar function enabled: ± 0.2 m)\n|Hover time||33min（No load）\n|Maximum operating flight speed||7 m/s|\n|Maximum flight speed||10m/s|\n|Maximum wind speed||8m/s|\n|Maximum flight altitude||1500m|\n|Recommended working temperature||-5℃-50℃|\n|Dimensions||1712*1712*600mm（The arms are extended and the blades are folded）|\n|Diameter x pitch||30*0.9 inch|\n|Maximum working current (continuous)||80A|\n|Maximum working voltage||52.2V|\n|Maximum light intensity||12 lux@5m Direct shot|\n|Job box capacity||16L|\n|Atomizing particle size||170 - 265 μm|\n|Effective spray width (1.5-3 m from the work)||4-6m|\n|High precision radar module|\n|Working power consumption||1.5W @25°C|\n|Fixed height and ground following||Height measurement range：1 - 30 m\nFixed height range：1.5 - 15 m\nMountain mode maximum slope：35°\n|Intelligent flight battery|\n|Number of channels||12|\n|Signal output||SBUS PWM 12C|\n|Limited signal distance (no interference, no blocking)||1.5km|\nIf you would like to purchase the product, please contact firstname.lastname@example.org or leave your contact details and we will get in touch with you shortly.", "domain": "design"}

In this van, I’ve driven over 14,000 foot passes in Colorado, chased powder, camped with my family, leaf peeped in New England, and more. Sprinter van life has been an incredible adventure, and this van has proved itself to be one incredible beast. In this blog post, I give the full tour and also share some updates on the few minor things I’d do differently.\nThis is actually my second Sprinter Van conversion. I joined the Sprinter Van community back in 2015 when I purchased my first 144” Sprinter Van. I had this first Sprinter Van converted into an awesome mobile tiny home, and traveled from California to Canada in it. During those two years, I learned a lot about how I was using the space. My last Sprinter had a full indoor bathroom, an open aisle all the way to the back doors, and a convertible sofa bed across from the slider door (you can check out the video tour of my first Sprinter Van here). In some cases, it worked – particularly when I was solo on shorter trips. However, I found myself never using the bathroom, wanting a more dedicated workspace, and needing more indoor storage for camping gear and bikes. In addition, I learned a lot about materials, the importance of building light, and having weight properly balanced across the van.\nWith the knowledge I gained, I decided to sell my first Sprinter and put what I learned into Sprinter Van #2. This time around, I went longer with a 4×4 170” wheelbase (read my comparison with the 144″ here) and hired a Portland-based Sprinter Van conversion company that you may have heard of called Outside Van.\n50,000 miles in, I’m still absolutely loving my Outside Van Sprinter Van. Keep on reading for the full tour of my Outside Van Sprinter Van conversion, a review of my experience, and more details about why I decided to switch up my floor plan.\n**Make sure to check out my free online course all about van life – The Van Life Roadmap – where I share everything I’ve learned over the last 4 years.\nTake a tour of my Outside Van Sprinter Van conversion.\nOutside Van YouTube Tour\nFirst, watch this video and get the full inside tour of my 4×4 170″ Mercedes Sprinter camper van.\nSprinter Van Galley\nStarting at the slider door when you walk in, Outside Van installed their medium sized galley. I wanted to leave the space open near the door and the galley so Ryan (my boyfriend and I) could be cooking together or brushing our teeth at the same time without having to sneak around each other. The open space by the slide door also leaves room for our dog Charlie so we aren’t tip toeing around him.\n>> Read Next: Kitchen Ideas for your Van Conversion\nOutside Van’s galley is made of marine grade plywood which is treated so it won’t expand in heat or distort over time. Marine grade plywood is the standard used in boats and is made to withstand a bumpy ride. Outside Van builds their drawers using dovetail construction and are made of bamboo, which is antimicrobial and eco-friendly. All of the drawers have a slow closing mechanism to prevent them from slamming shut.\nOverhead cabinet and drawer faces are covered using a high-quality laminate, which gives all of the wood in the van a nice finish while protecting the marine grade plywood underneath. Laminate is lightweight and way more durable than regular wood. I chose a reclaimed look for the overhead cabinets and a deep blue for the galley.\nThe white galley counter-top is made of a material called avonite. Avonite is an acrylic material, which is lighter than granite and quartz and more durable than corion – the other materials you can make a white counter-top from. The avonite is also very easy to clean, and I love the modern look it gives the van.\nThe Avonite counter top has held up really well. There is one minor chip on one of the edges, but otherwise, it’s proven to be pretty scratch resistant and very easy to clean. Sometimes I do wish that it wasn’t white as it requires constant wipe down to look clean.\nIn my last Sprinter Van conversion, I had a permanent two burner propane stove inside the van. In my current van, I opted for an induction instead. The gas stove was a huge pain to clean and it took up a ton of counter space that was otherwise unusable.\nI loved being able to cook in the van when the weather was crummy, but as long as the weather is tolerable, I now prefer to do a majority of my cooking outside. In my new Sprinter, I have a one-burner induction stove for morning coffee, very simple meals, and bad weather days. The rest of my cooking, I’m doing outside with a two burner, portable camp stove.\nWhile you need a powerful battery bank and inverter to run an induction stove, they have a lot of benefits. The induction stove in my Sprinter Van heats up and cool down fast, so you aren’t likely to burn yourself. Induction stoves are also easy to clean and safer since you aren’t combusting gas inside the van. One other thing Outside Van did is made the induction stove completely flush with the countertop, so when the stove isn’t on, it basically serves as normal counter space for chopping, etc.\nWe use this stove way more than we expected, and I’m so glad we installed it. It’s especially useful to be able to cook inside in winter without having to set anything up or when we are stealth camping.\nThe fridge in my first Sprinter Van conversion was way too small for our needs. In this van, I wanted a larger fridge with enough room to carry a weeks worth of fresh food. I chose a 4.6 cubic foot fridge by Isotherm. Isotherm is one of the premier marine and RV fridge companies, and their fridges are designed to survive shaking, vibration, and rigid movements that you have in vans and boats.\nWe love the size of our fridge and it functions quite well. My only complaint about this fridge is after about 6 weeks, the freezer starts to ice up and the entire fridge has to be turned off and defrosted. I’m not sure if other fridge styles – like drawer fridges – have the same issue.\nFor the sink, we have a nice pull-down faucet and a large, round stainless steel under-mount sink. I wanted a sink large enough that would make doing dishes very easy. Outside Van also created a cover that sits flush with the sink and creates a flat surface for additional prep space.\nDrawers and Storage\nThe push locks keep the drawers and cabinets from opening while I’m driving, and Outside Van used a custom powder coat so the push locks match the other metal features in the van.\nLastly, for storage near the galley, there is a large 5’ long overhead cabinet for food and other essentials. I also opted for Outside Van’s overhead cab shelf which adds a lot of additional storage for oddly shaped items.\nSprinter Van Dinette\nIn my last Sprinter van conversion, my sofa converted to a bed. That meant when the bed was out, I couldn’t set my table up. This became a problem for my working productivity because Ryan and I have slightly different sleeping habits sometimes. I’m an early riser, and it’s the time of day I get most of my work done. Therefore I wanted a dedicated workspace that was always ready to go and didn’t have to be set up and taken down every day.\nBehind the galley, Outside Van built me a custom dinette that comfortably seats two people. In my last van, Ryan and I had to sit next to each other on the sofa if we wanted to play a game or eat dinner. In this van, the dinette allows us to sit across from each other, which I prefer and feels more comfortable on my back.\nI wanted the bench seats to add a pop of color to the van, so I choose fun fabric made by Sunbrella, which Outside Van uses as it’s stain and fade resistant. The two bench seats have ample storage in them and the bench seats also pull out to make a full lounge that spans the width of the van. It’s very easy to set up and could easily sleep a child or a Great Dane.\nThe dinette has worked out fabulous for both working, eating, and hanging out. We have never used the lounge and since there isn’t a seatbelt for an extra passenger, I’m not sure it was necessary to have this additional sleeping area. For the upholstery, we’ve removed the covers a few times and washed them in our washing machine. They clean up nice, but we do keep the bottom half covered with a towel since we step on it in order to get up in the bed. Next time, I might use a vinyl type material that wipes clean instead.\nThe table in the middle is on a Lagun swivel mount and serves as a desk and dining table. It’s 30” long and can be used width or lengthwise. The Lagun mount allows the table to be pushed all the way to one side, making it easier to access the storage underneath the bed. If I want to pull the bench seats out, I can remove the whole table from its mount and place it in a second mount next to the galley.\nThe table was constructed in-house by Outside Van. I had the idea to have a US map placed on the table top, and not only did they pull it off, but it looks fantastic and is one of my favorite parts of the van.\nThis Lagun table is awesome. We drive with it in place and have never removed it.\n>> Read Next: Get Tips for Planning your Van Layout\nOutside Van Sprinter Three-Panel Bed\nNext at the rear of the van is Outside Van’s standard three-panel aluminum platform bed that goes all the way to the back doors with Outside Van’s exoskeleton cabinet for clothing storage. The bed has a capacity of 500 pounds and is almost a king-sized bed (we sleep the long way down the van even though the pillow placement suggests otherwise). All three panels are secured to the bed rails via a spring-loaded threaded fastener. The bed panels can also be removed if I was moving, for example, and needed to be able to store bigger things in the back of the van.\nMattress and Bedding\nI chose the medium firm mattress with memory foam and added a latex topper for additional comfort. Outside Van’s mattress cover is made from Sunbrella, which is stain resistant, tear resistant, and easy to clean. While we keep ours protected with an additional waterproof mattress cover, I can even take their cover off and throw it in the washing machine.\nMy comforter for those who are curious is made by Rumpl.\nDiscover my top 17 must have van life gear essentials.\nOn the passenger side of the van, I have what Outside Van calls an exoskeleton cabinet which is open with no cabinet face. They put it on the opposite wall as the galley overhead cabinet to help balance out the van’s weight. This style of cabinet is stuffable, removable, modular and more lightweight than traditional cabinets. We use this exoskeleton cabinet to store packing cubes containing all of our clothes.\nThe open style cabinet has its pros and cons. I like that it’s easy to stuff a jacket in there or quickly grab something. At the same time, unless you are super diligent about putting your clothes away in your packing cubes, it can quickly look messy and unorganized.\nSprinter Van Garage\nUnderneath the bed is a ton of storage. Right now we have room for two Specialized e-mountain bikes, all of our camping, and outdoor gear, shoes, and even a couple of inflatable stand-up-paddle boards. There is also 25 gallons of water, a Webasto Dual Top Evo 6 for heat and hot water, and a very powerful battery bank.\nEverything gets secured in the garage using Mac’s Versatile Tie Down System – basically a version of L Track. Using Mac’s tie-down rings, we cinch all of our bins up using straps so nothing moves while we are driving. The bikes use the same system. We simply take the front wheel off of our bikes, put the bikes in facing the opposite direction so we can get them as tight as possible together, and then mount them to the Mac System using fork mounts. It takes a few minutes to unpack and restore the bikes, but I’m very happy being able to store our electric bikes inside the van to prevent them from getting stolen and to minimize the number of things that are hanging off of the van and causing drag.\nWe can access the garage via the back doors or from the inside of the van. Outside Van makes a softwall that attaches to the front of the bed frame and drops down to the floor. The middle of the softball has a zippered doorway that you can leave open to get in and out of the garage without having to go outside. We typically just leave this up since we store our shoes right behind the soft wall.\nYou may be wondering how easy it is to stay organized in here without a robust drawer system. In my Outside Van Sprinter, I opted to keep storage simple. A big drawer system, especially if it’s made of wood, is very heavy and is just another component of the van that you have to worry about breaking if you like to drive off-road. Instead, I wanted to store my gear in lightweight plastic bins and duffel bags. That way it’s easy to pull everything out of the van together in the bins/bags, rather than having to take each individual item out of drawers to transport my stuff in and out of a house. It would be cool to have the bikes on some sort of slider system, but you end up losing a few inches vertically, and we didn’t want our bed any higher.\n>> Read Next: How to Fit your Stuff into 100 Square Feet\nSprinter Van Electrical System\nMy last Sprinter Van had high performing electrical components, and in this van, I opted for many of those same components but a beefier system overall. Running low on power is stressful, and if you drop below a certain point, it can damage your batteries to the point of needing to replace them. We plan on living in the van full-time for 6 months a year, and with electric bikes, my computer, camera, induction stove, the heater, and other electronics, I wanted to never have to worry about running out of power – especially in the winter.\nWe’ve spent almost two years living full time in this Sprinter van, and we’ve never had to plug in. I’m so happy I went with a robust system that I never have to worry about. Occasionally in winter if we are using the induction stove a lot, we might turn on the van so the alternator sends some additional juice to the batteries. But other than that, this power system has performed great. The technology has changed since my van was built, so next time I might consider Lithium. However, I’ve never had any issues with my AGM batteries, and they are still holding charge as if they were brand new.\nI almost doubled my battery bank in my new Sprinter. In my last van, I had 375 amp hours of batteries. In this van, I have 660 amp hours. I opted for AGM batteries because they perform better in cold weather than Lithium Ion, and they are also more cost-effective. The batteries are stored in a cabinet in the garage. The batteries charge off of the solar on the roof, and they are also hooked up to my engine’s alternator, so the batteries are constantly charging while I’m driving.\nOn the roof, I have 445 watts of solar panels made by Zamp Solar. They are the same brand I had on my last van, and Outside Van uses Zamp because their panels are made right here in the US, and out of the companies they’ve tried, they’ve found their panels to be the highest performing. I have four 80 watt panels and one 125 watt panel. One of my single 80-watt solar panels should cover the consumption rate of the fridge, while the rest run the other things in the van.\n>> Read Next: Planning your electrical system for your van conversion\nMy solar setup on the roof is secured to a custom-made Outside Van roof rack. The rack is very low profile, so you can barely see it from the ground, and it has a walkway down the center of the van that I use to hang out or access the solar panels for cleaning. It’s worked out great as a platform for taking photos too.\nThe final piece is the inverter. I have a 2000 watt Magnum Pure-Sine Inverter which converts power from the batteries to AC power that I use to run the induction stove and other things that plug into the 110 outlets. I have 6 USB outlets and 6 regular 110 outlets, including two 110 outlets in the garage that we use to charge our e-bikes. In addition to our ebikes, we have a computer, cameras, phones, a blender, a dust buster, and a few other appliances that we charge.\nSprinter Van Temperature Control\nI opted against a rear AC in my Sprinter Van conversion. They draw a ton of power, and it didn’t seem necessary. I can confirm now that we made the right decision. We don’t camp in the desert in summer, and when it gets too hot, we flock to higher elevations. Of course, if you plan on living in Florida or Arizona in summer, you may need to plan differently.\nOutside Van did do a few things though to keep the interior of the van comfortable, even on hot sunny days.\nFirst, they replaced the front side factory windows with CR Laurence Windows that vent. Next to the bed, we also have small slider windows that open up.\nI have two Maxx Fans. One above the galley and one above the bed. They each have a rain sensor and create really nice airflow in the van. Compared to my Fantastic Fan in my last Sprinter Van, the Maxx Fans seem superior.\nInsulating Window Shades\nAll of the window shades in my Sprinter van conversion are made of a ripstop nylon with a layer of closed cell foam in the middle which helps insulate the van from the heat in the summer and prevent warm air from escaping through the windows in the winter. The shades are very simple to put up and take down via the snap buttons and most of the time, we find ourselves driving with them in place to keep the sun out.\nThe curtain that leads to the front of the van is the same material and has a zippered walkway in the middle. This is one of my favorite things in the van. We leave it hanging up at all time, and I love how easy it is to zip is closed when we want privacy or to insulate the living area from the cab.\nFor heat in the winter, I have a Webasto Dual Top Evo 6. This equipment produces hot air and hot water and runs of the diesel in your existing diesel tank. Outside Van generally installs these Webasto units inside the van in the garage which improves their performance in the winter versus having them on the outside.\nWe’ve had our van down to single digits at night, and the van feels toasty warm inside.\n>> Read Next: Options for Temperature Control in your Van Conversion\nSprinter Van Plumbing System\nIn my new Sprinter, I wanted my entire plumbing system contained inside the van, so I don’t have to worry about anything freezing in the winter. It’s a simple streamlined setup and very easy to fill up our water.\nI have a 25-gallon water tank inside a cabinet in the garage, alongside the Webasto Dual Top which stores an additional 3 gallons of hot water in the boiler. The BPA-free water tank is permanent, but it can easily be filled using a hose or 5-gallon jugs if I can’t find a spigot with potable water. Water that runs through lines to the sink goes through a three-stage charcoal water filter that ensures the water we are drinking is clean.\nFor showering, Outside Van does build lightweight indoor showers for those of you who truly need a regular indoor shower…but based my experience with my last indoor shower, I decided this wasn’t a necessity for me or worth the sacrifice in space. For showering, we can quickly hook up a shower hose to the back of the water tank, which allows us to take hot outdoor showers. When we travel in the winter, we’ll have to find other ways to shower – like gyms, community centers, campgrounds, or houses of family or friends.\n>> Read Next: 7 Reasons you Don’t Need a Permanent Shower in your Van\nIn my last Sprinter Van, I had a Thetford portable toilet. It did the trick, but I hated using it for #2 because dumping it was gross. Plus, finding a dump every 5-7 days to empty the toilet was a hassle.\nFor the first year we traveled in this new Sprinter, we didn’t have a toilet. But now, with wanting to avoid public bathrooms, we carry this foldable Go Anywhere toilet that utilizes wag bags. We prefer go outside and dig a hole following Leave No Trace principles, but when it’s not possible to go outside, we use this toilet. Once you’re done, the bag just goes in the trash can. The bags do get pricey, and I’m not crazy about the plastic waste, but for the occasional use, it’s worked out great for us. The space we save by not having a normal toilet is more than worth it, and I enjoy not having the toilet-related chores\n>> Read Next: Best camper van toilet options\nSprinter Van Floor\nIn my last Sprinter, I found that the dark wood floors looked great, but they were very hard to keep clean. Dirt shows very easily on dark colors and with our dog, all we saw was footprints. The wood also didn’t provide any traction.\nThe first thing Outside Van does when building their floors is to remove the factory floor. They then build a new floor out of marine grade plywood and adhere a layer of high-density vinyl to the top. This is a slightly heavier than the factory floor, but its a little thicker and way more durable, so there’s no flex in the floor when you place heavy features on it.\nIn my Outside Van Sprinter, I choose two different types of flooring – both made of a high-density vinyl. In the front, I wanted something that would provide a balance between durability and easiness to clean, which led me to a lighter colored vinyl weave with a hint of black that ties in with other black features in the van like the window shades. Update: The texture in the weave the floor up front actually makes. it quite difficult to clean.\nIn the back, I chose a diamond plate style vinyl floor, which is one of the most durable floor types you can put in a Sprinter Van. It doesn’t scratch, so it can withstand bins and bikes sliding across it. We’ve found this to be true after years of dragging gear across it.\n>> Read Next: A Guide to Floor Materials for your Van\nSprinter Van Walls\nOne of my favorite features of my last Sprinter Van was the white walls. It made the van feel so bright, open, and airy. Outside Van had never built a van with white walls, so my van is a completely new look for them. They found a synthetic leather product called Sileather that is eco-friendly, VOC-free, easy to clean with a damp cloth, waterproof, and fade proof. It’s perfect for people with dogs, as dog hair doesn’t stick to it. I’ve been really happy with the walls – even bloody mosquitos wipe right up.\nBehind the walls, is insulation, a really powerful sound dampening material, and a custom infrastructure that Outside Van has developed to reduce the twisting and flexing of the van interior, making the build more durable. The van is incredibly quiet when I drive. There are no rattles or other noises from the cabinets or other components, making for a very peaceful ride.\n>> Read Next: Best Insulation types for your Van Conversion", "domain": "design"}

However, if you use it for professional meetings or conferences, having the right background can impact your success. These are things you can incorporate into your office background.\nMinimalist Plain Zoom\nYour first step to creating an office background is to declutter. Remove anything that creates a busy-looking area. Your minimalist plain zoom background shouldn’t have extra furniture, cords, desk accessories, etc.\nMove as much out of your camera view as possible. If you do have bookshelves behind you, make sure that everything is put away and they look tidy. If you don’t need it for your presentation, remove it. In fact, a background in one solid color with one focal point, such as a piece of artwork, is often best. In addition, avoid placing your camera where you can see the doorway in the frame.\nIncorporate a Logo\nWhen you have cleared out all the furniture and other accessories, you should have a rather blank canvas, especially if you removed those bookshelves. Hopefully, you are starting with a blank wall. Now, incorporate your company logo.\nYou can size it based on the frame and color of the logo versus the wall. Make sure your logo doesn’t overpower the screen, but make it visible.\nAdd a Plant\nPlants not only pull toxins out of the air, but they give your area a natural, lively look. They also help you feel happy. In the background, they add interest and height. Choose something attractive and interesting, but don’t let it overwhelm the background. If you have trouble keeping plants alive, choose a lifelike artificial plant.\nCustom Office Backgrounds\nIf you cannot clear out your background, you can adopt a custom office background. You can choose from a number of background options and even insert your logo. You also gain more privacy because others on your video call cannot see your home or desk.\nBecause they are customized, you can also use them to build brand recognition. Those you are meeting with will see that you care about keeping your “meeting room” tidy and ensuring that it reflects your company, encouraging them to trust your brand. In addition, you can choose from many low-cost or free options, so you can create unique backgrounds for your calls.\nPay Attention to the Lighting\nYour lighting is important because it can make you and your background look great or not so great. For example, you may choose a ring light, which is a popular choice for many YouTubers, but if you are at a desk, choose a high-color rendering index light. These lights show true color, so you and your background won’t be washed out or off-color during your meetings.\nYou don’t have to spend a lot of money on a lighting system. Use natural light if you have it, but if you don’t you can find affordable options with great results online.\nYou can also choose free zoom backgrounds office for important business meetings where you need your attendees to pay close attention. The key is to create a natural-looking background that isn’t cluttered with unnecessary distractions but shows a little personality.", "domain": "design"}

The building was owned by Princess Zinaida Yusupova (1810–1893), a descendant of the noble Moscow boyar family, the Narishkins (A). In 1827, while still very young, she had married Prince Boris Yusupov (1794–1849), an important official of the imperial court. The couple bought a palace on the Moika River in 1830 and had it rebuilt and expanded several times. The princess was known for her beauty, intelligence and knowledge of poetry and art, as well as for various affairs and her proximity to Tsar Nicholas I. After her husband’s death, Zinaida had the palace built on Liteyny Avenue and moved there after her only son Nikolai Yusupov (1827–1891), to whom she left the palace on the Moika River, married in 1856. Zinaida Yusupova was one of the capital’s richest aristocrats at the time, and her prominent status in Russian high society is still reflected in her magnificent palace, built between 1852 and 1858 by architect Ludwig Bohnstedt (1822–1885).\nThe eye-catching two-story building is located on one of the main boulevards of the city center, which runs north-south from Liteyny Bridge to Nevsky Avenue, and is best seen from Belinsky Street, at the end of which it is located (B). On the one hand, the façade, strictly structured with large round-arched windows, is inspired by Italian Renaissance architecture. On the other hand, the façade’s lavish architectural and sculptural decoration – such as columns and pilasters, caryatids, atlantes, putti and vases – is more reminiscent of Baroque architecture. This way, the palace represented the latest fashion: the amalgamation of different stylistic models of past epochs was characteristic of the so-called “eclecticism” in 19th-century architecture. The somewhat imposing décor, however, seems to have suited the princess’s taste rather than the architect’s artistic convictions. A peculiarity of the palace is that its façades are completely faced with stone, unlike most other buildings of this era in Saint Petersburg, where brick walls were plastered and decorated with cheaper stucco. The main façade and all its decorations are carved from light-colored “Bremen sandstone” which was one of the reasons why the palace was considered a culmination of taste and splendor at the time.\nZinaida Yusupova, proud of her new residence, had the palace and its interiors documented in various media. Around 1860, Vasily Sadovnikov (1800–1879) painted the palace in a series of detailed watercolors, and apparently photographs also existed of the building at that time. Highlighted are the preserved stereo-daguerreotypes presented here. Using a camera with two lenses, the interiors were photographed from two slightly different angles side by side on one plate. When these images are looked at through a simple optical device, an illusion of three-dimensional depth is created, and the viewer can be literally immersed in the image.\nThe ten stereo-daguerreotypes measure 8.5 x 11 cm each and are subtly hand-tinted with dust and watercolor paints. They are mounted under a protective glass plate in a cardboard passepartout covered with gold foil and carrying the imprint of the manufacturing company: “T. SCHNEIDER UND SOEHNE” [T. SCHNEIDER AND SONS]. Also preserved is the original wooden storage box with ten compartments and a sliding lid, and a leather-bound wooden viewing case lined with red velvet. A daguerreotype inserted into this case could be viewed through the integrated fold-out lens plate. This way, the desired perception of spatial depth was easier to achieve and the viewing experience improved.\nThe Age of the Daguerreotype\nThe Daguerreotype, first viable photographic method, developed by Louis Jacques Mandé Daguerre (1787–1851), was introduced to the public in August 1839 at the French Academy of Sciences in Paris and changed the world of imagery forever. Daguerre’s cameras and equipment sold quickly and many enthusiasts learned the profitable technique which made it possible to depict the world in a relatively simple but entirely new and lifelike way. After further technical improvements to the process, even portraits of living people could be taken. To make a daguerreotype, silver-plated and polished copper plates first had to be made light-sensitive with iodine vapor. Then they were inserted into the camera and exposed. Subsequently, the plates were developed using mercury vapor, and finally they had to be fixed in a specific solution.\nThe daguerreotype soon spread to Russia, and in the 1840s and 1850s, the decades considered the “Age of the Daguerreotype”, many photographic studios opened in Saint Petersburg and Moscow. French, Italian, German, and Russian daguerreotypists worked there, producing mainly single and group portraits. In the 1860s, the daguerreotype, whose primary disadvantage was the non-reproducibility of the resulting unique prints, was rapidly replaced by various negative processes that allowed the photograph to be duplicated.\nTrupert Schneider and the Schneider Brothers\nIn the early 1860s, however, daguerreotypes taken as stereo images were Schneider and Sons’ area of expertise, setting them apart from other photographers. Trupert Schneider (1804–1899), a skilled carpenter from the Duchy of Baden, completely changed his career in his 40s after discovering the technique of the daguerreotype. First, he assisted Joseph Broglie (*1810), an itinerant daguerreotypist from Huningue (Alsace), but soon acquired the necessary equipment to work on his own. From 1848, Schneider and his son Heinrich (1835–1900) traveled as daguerreotypists, undertaking extensive trips to Italy and Austria. In 1856 Trupert’s younger son Wilhelm (1839–1921) joined them and from mid-1858, the brothers traveled on alone, establishing themselves for periods in Hamburg and Berlin, where they mainly portrayed local society. After a two-month stay at home, they returned to work in Berlin and Prussian Silesia in March 1860. Now, for the first time, a “Bilderkästchen” [picture box] and a “Stereoskopkasten” [stereoscope box] – presumably a storage box and a viewing case for stereo-daguerreotypes – are mentioned in their commission book in connection with interior photographs of a building. It is quite possible that the stereo-daguerreotypes were an innovative proposal devised by Trupert Schneider and his sons in view of the threatening decline of the daguerreotype. In this case, the spectacular illusion of three-dimensional depth of stereoscopic images – particularly suitable for the representation of architecture and interiors – could counterbalance the lack of reproducibility of the image. On May 1 1861, Heinrich and Wilhelm Schneider left Ehrenstetten in Baden for Russia, arriving in Saint Petersburg on May 21. After having taken only a few pictures, the bad weather prompted them to travel on to Moscow. Here they spent more than two weeks photographing the Kremlin, the tsar’s residence, totaling around eighty stereo-daguerreotypes. Back in Saint Petersburg, prominent residents of the city posed in front of the camera and the Schneider brothers documented their castles, villas and dachas in great detail. In winter, they were forced to pause for about three months due to the lack of daylight before returning to work in Saint Petersburg and Moscow (C). According to the commission book, they worked in Zinaida Yusupova’s (then Countess Chauveau) palace during their partnership with Carl Hedler, which began in mid-April 1862. After fourteen months in Russia, the Schneider brothers left the country in early August 1862. Only a few years later, now young millionaires, they settled in Krotzingen, where they built a house with a studio and laboratory. They adopted the more modern wet plate and later the dry plate techniques, but at the same time continued to work with daguerreotypes even until 1880. Their legacy has not survived and their photographs are now either lost or dispersed in collections and museums throughout Europe. The few stereo-daguerreotypes held in the collections of the State Russian Museum in Moscow and the State Hermitage in Saint Petersburg are all works of Heinrich and Wilhelm Schneider, made in 1861 and 1862, and show mainly interiors.\nStylish Interiors and Colorful Illusions of Depth\nThe stereo-daguerreotypes of Zinaida Yusupova’s palace show nine locations of its vast premises. All rooms are lavishly decorated with stucco, gilding and decorative painting and equipped with many gas-powered lamps. The princess, who had spent a lot of time in Paris in recent years, had the palace furnished according to the taste of the time, strongly influenced by the eclectic Second Empire style, also known as Napoleon III style. The rooms vary in design depending on their function, creating a kaleidoscope of artistic impressions, historical and literary associations, and resulting in stylistic codes that could easily be deciphered by contemporaries. The architect Andrei Zhukovskii commented in 1859:\nThe entire furnishing altogether produces a magnificent effect; the most fanciful architectural fantasies of female taste could not be more successfully and more satisfactorily executed; the most exquisite conditions of a European lady’s quarters seem to be fulfilled in perfection in this building.\nA first stereo daguerreotype shows the view from below of the impressive red-carpeted staircase leading to the upper main floor (1). The garlanded pilasters, steps and handrail are carved from marble, while the walls and ceilings are decorated with stucco. On the upper floor, the most important halls where the princess would receive her guests, are arranged around the staircase. Two daguerreotypes depict the pink drawing room facing Liteyny Avenue in the northwest corner of the building (2). It features pink fabrics, gilded pilasters, and a large oval mirror above a dark marble fireplace. Two other daguerreotypes show the two adjoining rooms to the east. The image of a smaller drawing room, furnished with light blue upholstered and gilded chairs and a large chandelier, is the least successful of the series (3). The camera was set up slightly inclined and the room is poorly lit, which is why the fireplace next to the door and the painting on the left wall disappear in the dark. The daguerreotype of the following narrow, elongated room, which served as a gallery for paintings, miniatures, majolica and Chinese porcelain, is again well accomplished (4). Thanks to the windows facing the winter garden and the first courtyard the lighting is better here. The picture gallery, where further paintings, portraits and small statues and busts are exhibited, and which is located on the opposite side of the courtyard, can be seen in the following daguerreotype (5). Between the two galleries extends a very particular space, accessible from the main staircase through a glazed door: The winter garden under a sloping glass roof was one of the largest in Saint Petersburg at the time and displays a lush vegetation, clearly visible in another daguerreotype (6). Such winter gardens, which took visitors off to warm and exotic destinations, were very popular at that time in the often winter cold city.\nTwo other daguerreotypes show interiors, which are probably located on the first floor of the palace. One photograph shows a Renaissance-style room with a stucco ceiling decorated with large painted medallions (7). On one side of the room, a buffet is set up, containing drinking vessels, platters and table centerpieces. The other photograph reveals Zinaida Yusupova’s bedroom (8). It is decorated entirely in blue and white, and not only by coincidence resembles her former bedroom in the palace on the Moika River, The furniture was brought – as well as other fixtures suitable for the princess’s new house – from the Yusupov’s Moika Palace. The last daguerreotype shows the private church, established with the approval of the Synod on the third floor of the palace’s south wing (9). Consecrated in 1861, the church is arranged according to a design by Alexey Gornostaev (1808–1862). It is covered with a dome and vaults and decorated with portraits of saints and scenes from the gospel, as well as gilded stucco decoration and a carved iconostasis.\nZinaida Yusupova spent little time in her palace. In May 1861, she married the much younger officer Charles Chauveau (1829–1889), whom she had met in France, in her palace’s newly completed church. Fallen out of favor with Tsar Alexander II because of the mésalliance, the princess acquired the title of Count Chauveau and Marquis de Serres for her husband and soon left the country. She settled with Chaveau in a chateau in Brittany and spent the years after his death mainly in Paris, without being able to return to her homeland.\nA Set of Exceptional Value\nThe stereo-daguerreotypes of Zinaida Yusupova’s palace are an important heritage in several respects. Since daguerreotypes are very sensitive to humidity and temperature, relatively few have survived to this day. The well-preserved stereo-daguerreotypes of the palace on Liteyny Avenue, each of them unique, are among the few existing Russian photographs by the Schneider brothers. They bear witness to the history of early photography in Russia and to the above-average quality and the distinctive characteristic of the work of Heinrich and Wilhelm Schneider, who were still very young at the time. Another unique fact is that not only the daguerreotypes, but also the original wooden storage box and the viewing case have been preserved. Both the format of the daguerreotypes and the storage box differ from the usual standards and demonstrate the inventiveness and craftsmanship of Trupert Schneider. Originally specialized in manufacturing exclusive small objects such as sewing boxes and jewelry boxes, he later not only produced his own photographic equipment, and also supplied his traveling sons with the necessary wooden boxes and viewing cases for stereo-daguerreotypes. Furthermore, the pictures are historical documents that provide extremely precise information about the housing needs of the nobility of the time and their preferences in interior design. They show a snapshot of the newly built palace of a most important Saint Petersburg lady of the time. Today, some of the depicted interiors are still preserved – albeit without the movable furnishings – but others have long since been lost, among them the church and the winter garden, which had to make way for a theater hall in 1908. For these rooms and for the lost furnishings, the stereo-daguerreotypes are significant and detailed sources that reproduce the palace’s initial atmosphere. Finally, the stereo-daguerreotypes commissioned by Zinaida Yusupova testify to the princess’s enthusiasm for the new possibilities of photography as well as her love for the arts.\nPrice on request", "domain": "design"}

It was an extremely revolutionary console at its time and was the best selling console for a number of years. I used to play NES a lot as a kid, so I have all those memories of the old games, and had an imminent urge to dig into the inner details of the console to figure out how it worked.\nI got myself a Digilent Nexys 3 FPGA development board. It's a ready made FPGA board with built in Flash, RAM, USB programming interface, and power supply circuitry. This is a really quick and easy path into the world of FPGAs. The alternative could be to make the whole PCB from scratch, and that is something I want to learn some day. A guy named Kevtris has done exactly that with his FPGA Game Console.\nThere are two competing hardware description languages, VHDL and Verilog. I chose to learn Verilog because VHDL seemed unnecessarily verbose while Verilog offered a much more compact syntax.\nThe NES contains a Ricoh 2A03 CPU, virtually identical to the MOS 6502 CPU, but includes an on chip APU (Audio Processing Unit), while removing some CPU features such as Binary Coded Decimal arithmetic, supposedly to avoid paying patent royalties. Side by side to the CPU is a PPU (Picture Processing Unit), which is responsible for generating a 256x240 sized image. The console has extremely small amounts of memory with today's standards. It has a built in 2kB RAM for the CPU, and another 2kB used by the PPU. Additionally, some carts provided a few kilobytes of extra memory.\nSince the CPU uses only a 16-bit address bus, it was common to include mapper chips inside of the cartridge. These are used to implement a mapping (or windowing) mechanism, so the CPU can select which part of the ROM to map into the address space. There exist a plethora of mapper configurations, around 200 different configurations or so. In some cases these were regular discrete logic chips such as 74LS161, while in other cases it was custom made ASICs. In order to support all NES games, I need to implement all those mapper chips too, as the FPGA NES uses an iNES ROM image instead of a physical cartridge.\nThe NES PPU runs off of a 21.4773 MHz crystal. This frequency was chosen by the original NES designers because it's the frequency used by NTSC video. These are the frequencies I make use of in my FPGA:\n- 100MHz: The frequency of the devboard crystal, this gets converted down to 21.4773MHz by the FPGA's built in Digital Clock Manager (DCM) by first multiplying the frequency by 189, then dividing by 220, and finally dividing by 4.\n- 21.4773MHz: The internal frequency the FPGA runs on, is used to clock the PSRAM logic, the VGA scanline doubler, ROM loader and some other top level logic.\n- 5.37MHz: Generated by dividing 21.4773 by 4. This is frequency the PPU runs at, and every clock another pixel is outputted by the PPU. In my FPGA, I used clock enables to run the PPU only every 4th cycle, to avoid having multiple clock domains.\n- 1.79MHz: PPU clock divided by 3. This clocks the CPU. Implemented as a clock enable that's active only every 12th cycle.\nHere's a description of the various components that make up the FPGA NES:\nSpartan 6 LX16 FPGA Core:\nThe heart of the board, the Spartan-6 is the programmable chip that runs the NES. It's a pretty advanced FPGA where the basic building block is a 6 input LUT instead of the more commonly used 4-input LUT used in the Spartan-3 series. Here's an FPGA Logic Cells comparison with more info.\nThe LUT is used to create an arbitrary function of 6 bits of inputs into one bit of output, i.e. 2^6=64 bits of state. These LUTs get interconnected and state is persisted between clock cycles through the use of flip flops, which each keep 1 bit of memory.\n16Mbyte Micron Cellular RAM\nThis is PSRAM, a hybrid of a cheap DRAM and a more expensive SRAM. It still requires DRAM refresh cycles, but all that is happens behind the scenes so I don't need to worry about it. The RAM has an access time of 70ns, meaning that after I put the address out on the bus, I need to wait 70ns before the data is available for me to read. In my RAM logic, I wait 2 cycles (90ns). I timed it so I perform one single byte fetch per PPU clock.\nThe NES has separate address buses for the CPU (code) and the PPU (graphics). Since I use a single RAM chip, I'm time multiplexing the accesses. The PPU accesses ram only every second clock cycle, i.e. 50% of the time, while CPU accesses every third PPU cycle (33% of the time).\nThis is a rather mediocre video solution, as it only gives me 3 bits for Red, 3 bits for Green and 2 bits for Blue. This only allows for 4 levels of grayscale, so I can't even represent all NES colors accurately (see the picture). I need to move away from this once I figure out a better solution. I really wish the Digilent board would have used a proper video DAC instead, such as Analog Devices ADV7123.\nThese are Digilent's own expansion connectors. I created some simple audio circuitry using a 16 bit AD1866 Audio DAC connected to a single supply Operational Amplifier. The Audio DAC has a bit limited voltage range, 1.5V - 3.5V, so the peak to peak voltage after the opamp is only around 1 volt or so. I discovered the hard way by trial and error that I had to connect an electrolytic capacitor in series with the speaker to act as a high pass filter and remove the DC component to get the average voltage down to 0 volts instead of 2.5 volts.\nThe Digilent USB Interface can also be used as a bidirectional communications channel between the FPGA and a program running on the PC. The only controllers I had were USB SNES controllers, so I hooked the controller up to the PC and have a small program that reads the joystick movements and sends these over the cable to the FPGA.\n6502 CPU Core\nI wrote my own 6502 Verilog core, it seemed like a fun challenge and was a lot more educational and challenging than just stealing someone else's. The CPU contains an ALU, a set of registers, and a datapath structure that connects these together. Each instruction runs in a variable number of cycles, and a big microcode table controls which muxes and control signals that are active for every cycle of an instruction. There exists a lot of good documentation of how the 6502 worked down to the cycle level.\nInterestingly, the 6502 had a bunch of undocumented instructions. These exist because instructions are only partially decoded by a Decode PLA, and the unused opcodes trigger random control signals in the CPU, causing unplanned things to happen. I implemented most of these, except for some very esoteric ones.\nAPU (Audio Processing Unit)\nThe NES APU contains 5 tone generators: Two square wave generators, one triangle generator, one noise generator and a DMC (Delta Modulation Channel). These are periodically controlled by the CPU by writing to a few IO registers in the APU. The outputs of these 5 channels are then combined in a way to mimic the audio hardware of the NES, by using a few look up tables implemented on the FPGA's block ram.\nBecause the sample frequency of the APU is 1.79MHz, and the output frequency of my DAC is much much lower, I need to implement a digital low pass filter to remove the very high frequency components, to avoid aliasing artifacts. I implemented a 767 order FIR filter using one of the FPGA's DSP Multiply and Accumulate units and some block ram. The DSP unit can compute expressions on the form P = P + A * (B + C) in a single clock cycle. The FIR filter runs at 21.4773 MHz, and generates an output sample rate of 1/384th of that (55.9 kHz). Thanks to FIR filters being symmetrical, I only need to perform 768/2 = 384 multiplications per output sample, i.e. exactly one multiplication per clock cycle.\nPPU (Picture Processing Unit)\nGenerates output pixels and VGA control signals so the picture can be output on a standard PC monitor. I use the output resolution 512x480, so I implemented a scanline doubler in the FPGA, so that one PPU pixel becomes a 2x2 pixel on the VGA screen. The PPU implements the NES tile engine, where the screen is made up of a 32x30 8x8 pixel tiles, and there can be 64 sprites each either 8x8 or 8x16 pixels. The PPU aims to be completely cycle accurate, or else there will be glitches in certain games that depend on the exact NES clock timing.\nSo far I've only implemented a subset of all mappers that exist.\nMMC1: Nintendo ASIC, used in Megaman 2, Zelda, Metroid.\nMMC2: Nintendo ASIC. The only game that uses this seems to be Punch Out. It contains some dynamic bank switching to allow for more tiles than normal to be displayed on the screen simultaneously.\nMMC3: Nintendo ASIC, used in Megaman 3,4,5, Super Mario Bros 2,3. This mapper features a pretty interesting scanline counter that counts the number of transitions on the address lines. By making some assumptions on the pattern at which the PPU accesses things, an IRQ can be generated to the CPU when a certain scanline is about to be rendered. This is mostly used for split screen effects.\nTepples Multi Discrete Mapper: A single mapper that can be reconfigured to support several different discrete logic mappers.

What has changed is how we use these passive and active elements and the intended results of these fire safety strategies. This evolution is the result of both advances in structural and fire safety technology, as well as new safety and security threats that make the integrity of the building structure and the ability to evacuate occupants in a timely manner of the utmost priority.\nFifty years ago, the technology available to us to create fire-safe tall buildings was quite basic. Passive protection of the steel structural elements was provided by sprayed-on cementitious or fiber fireproofing materials. These materials were designed to insulate the steel from the heat of a fire and keep the steel below critical temperatures for a prescribed period (usually 3 hours for the structural frame and 2 hours for floors when tested to a standardized fire exposure test). Exit stairs to evacuate occupants from the fire area to areas of relative safety within the building were provided. Firefighting features such as elevators and firefighting water supplies to facilitate fire department response and manual suppression of fires at altitude were developed. Still missing from fire protection strategies were reliable fire detection, alarm and voice communications, and automatic suppression by sprinklers.\nThe idea that tall buildings would someday be targets for a broad range of malicious attacks was not a consideration for the first wave of tall buildings constructed in the 1960s and 70s in the U.S.\nThe Post WWII Era\nThe 1970s witnessed the first, sustained tall building boom in the United States with iconic, tall buildings constructed in Chicago, New York, and other major cities around the country. Most building codes did not include provisions specifically for high-rise buildings. During this time, design practices advanced ahead of codes and standards. Only after significant experience with high rise design and high-rise fires did codes and standards adopt specific high-rise provisions. In those early days, passive elements were more prevalent than active elements. Fire alarm systems were not considered reliable in fire safety design. And, automatic sprinkler systems that, at the time, used thick-walled schedule 40 pipes with screwed fittings that were cut and threaded on-site, were considered too expensive.\nThe goal of passive elements was to control the spread of fire and to maintain the buildings’ structural integrity during occupant evacuation and manual firefighting operations. Structural systems were primarily structural steel frames with steel deck and concrete floor slabs.\nJohn Hancock Center, Chicago.\nThe 875 N. Michigan Avenue Building in Chicago, formerly the John Hancock Center, is a typical example of high-rise construction during this period. The building structure consists of a robust structural steel frame where the perimeter structural system carries significant structural load with perimeter diagonal bracing for lateral loads. Although the robust steel structure itself has significant resistance to heat from a fire by virtue of its high thermal mass, spray-applied cementitious fireproofing was also applied to the structure to provide the required fire resistance of 3 hours to the structural frame and 2 hours to the floors.\nExit stairs, elevator shafts, and mechanical shafts were enclosed with fire-rated non-structural drywall or concrete block construction. In those early designs, the building core was typically not a structural element and did not generally contribute to the structural strength or fire resistance of the structure itself. Active firefighting systems were limited to a water supply. In most cases, this included relatively small on-site tanks and heavily relied upon municipal water supplies pumped to upper levels of the building to serve wet standpipe outlets located in each stair for use by fire department personnel. Those services were considered highly reliable, and the need for the building to operate “off the grid” was not a high priority.\nCodes “Catch Up”\nDuring the mid-1970s, building regulations in Chicago, New York, and throughout the U.S. “caught up” with the design practices of early tall buildings and mandated specific requirements for tall buildings. The requirements included most of the passive features incorporated into the earlier designs, including structural fire resistance and enclosed egress stairs. At the time, automatic sprinklers, active smoke control systems, and emergency voice communication systems were not required by these codes.\nDuring the 1980s, the U.S. experienced many significant fires in high-rise buildings, including hotels and office buildings. However, none of those high-rise fires resulted in the overall failure of the buildings’ structure. In several cases, there was significant localized structural failure where the localized heat of the fire had compromised the steel structural frame with spray-on fireproofing. As a result of those fires, many of the U.S. codes mandated automatic sprinkler protection for all new high-rises and eventually for most existing high-rise buildings. It is widely held that automatic sprinklers are the most effective way of controlling fire size and therefore controlling heat and smoke from a fire. Sprinkler system technology had also advanced considerably at this time, reducing costs and improving constructability.\nThe next tall building boom occurred in Asia during the 1990s. Two iconic projects during this timeframe were the Jin Mao Tower in Shanghai and the Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Built contemporaneously, these two projects represent an evolution in the structural design of tall buildings and the associated fire safety strategies of these buildings. In both cases, the buildings were designed by U.S. based design and construction teams, using a combination of local building regulations and international design standards and practices. In terms of both structural systems and fire safety, both projects were quite advanced for their time.\nPetronas Twin Towers and the Kuala Lumpur skyline.\nBoth designs incorporated poured concrete structural cores with composite perimeter super columns and steel and concrete floor assemblies. The early use of high strength concrete enhanced the design efficiency of the core and perimeter columns. This structural system was found to have the advantages of both improved structural efficiency and improved ease of constructability. With the concrete core carrying a significant portion of the lateral loads on the building, the structural system had the advantage of allowing the perimeter to be more open to more glass curtain walls and better views for building occupants.\nThe concrete cores provide a highly fire-resistant enclosure in the center of the towers, separated from the occupied areas of the buildings where fire is likely to occur. All critical life safety egress stairs, firefighting elevators, and critical risers’ power, fire alarm, fire sprinkler, and smoke exhaust are located within the fire-resistant core, protecting them from fire occurring in the perimeter occupied portion of each floor. The concrete core wall also forms a portion of a fire-rated public corridor system surrounding the core and separates occupied office spaces from the common public exits and core elements.\nIn the case of the Jin Mao tower, the concrete core contains the emergency egress stairs, firefighting elevator vestibules, passenger elevators and critical fire alarm, emergency communications, smoke extraction, and fire suppression system risers, protecting them from exposure to a fire in the occupied portion of the building. The concrete cores also facilitate safe “refuge” areas required by local building regulations.\nIn the Petronas Towers, in addition to the emergency evacuation stairs, firefighting elevator vestibules, and critical life safety risers, the concrete cores also contain passenger elevators that can be used in some emergency scenarios to evacuate building occupants from the sky lobby levels. The sky lobbies are designed with limited combustible contents so they can act as safe areas for staged building evacuation during emergencies. The sky bridge has the additional benefit of providing an emergency evacuation route between the towers in case of an emergency affecting the lower portion of one tower.\n9/11 Brings Changes\nAs a result of the events of September 11, 2001, the U.S. National Institutes of Science & Technology (NIST) undertook a series of investigations into all aspects of the design and construction of the World Trade Center towers. The results of these investigations, published in the document “NIST NCSTAR 1 Final Report on the Collapse of the World Trade Center Towers,” includes “areas in current building and fire codes, standards, and practices that warrant revision” including “a list of 30 recommendations for action in the areas of increased structural integrity, enhanced fire endurance of structures, new methods of fire-resistant design of structures, enhanced active fire protection, improved building evacuation, improved emergency response, improved procedures and practices, and education and training.”\nThe NIST recommendations included changes to structural design standards to prevent progressive collapse, as well as changes to fire endurance of structures, in-service performance of fireproofing materials, redundancy of active fire protection systems, and provision for full building evacuation in response to a wide range of emergency scenarios other than fire.\nMany of these recommendations were adopted by model code groups and were incorporated into their building and fire codes. The 2009 International Building Code (IBC) adopted a series of new requirements specific to buildings more than 420 feet (128 meters) in height. These requirements include:\n- Reverting to earlier code requirements mandating a fire resistance of the structural frame of 3 hours by removing the allowance for 2-hour ratings on buildings over 128 meters.\n- Design of the structure to eliminate the likelihood of progressive collapse\n- Impact-resistant construction materials for walls enclosing exits and elevator shafts\n- Minimum bonding strength for spray-applied fireproofing materials, so they are less likely to fail in a fire\n- Redundant water supply sources and risers for automatic sprinkler systems\n- One additional exit stair for firefighters or elevators designed for emergency occupant evacuation\nMany of these enhanced features that were incorporated into high-rise buildings on a project-by-project basis were now mandated for all buildings over 420 feet.\n2000 to the Present\nThe design of Burj Khalifa, currently the world’s tallest building, began in 2003 after the events of 9/11, but before the release of the NIST report and the incorporation of the report’s findings into the 2009 IBC. The design does incorporate several features that eventually became part of the 2009 IBC requirements. The design also incorporated some relevant aspects of the local code in conjunction with international codes (IBC) and fire safety enhancements.\nBurj Khalifa – currently the world’s tallest building.\nStructurally, the use of a reinforced concrete structure incorporating a concrete core, shear walls in each wing, columns, and concrete floor slabs was dictated by the fact that the building is primarily a residential occupancy and the shape of the building is three wings. Because the building is residential, it is highly compartmented by concrete corridor walls and demising walls.\nPassive fire protection is achieved primarily by the building’s concrete structure, which acts as a fire-rated enclosure for all exit stairs, firefighting elevators, and evacuation elevators. Critical fire safety system risers are incorporated into the building’s concrete core.\nBecause of the extensive pace of development in Dubai at the time of construction, the building was designed so that it does not rely on municipal water or electric service during emergency operations. The fire protection water supply is provided from water tanks of 1- or 2-hour capacity located on all mechanical floors. Water supplying automatic sprinklers is fed by gravity to zones below the tanks, so there is no reliance on fire pumps to supply necessary water in an emergency.\nFinally, evacuation elevators are incorporated into the design to enable full building evacuation, if needed, based on a broad range of emergency scenarios. Shuttle elevators are operated in “lifeboat” mode to shuttle occupants from sky lobbies to grade.\nThe Future: Jeddah Tower\nCurrently under construction in western Saudi Arabia, Jeddah Tower, when complete, will be the world’s tallest building at over 1,000 meters. Structurally, the building is quite similar to the Burj Khalifa, using a fully reinforced concrete structure for most of the building, incorporating concrete core, shear walls in each wing, columns, and concrete floor slabs. Because the building is residential, it is also highly compartmented by concrete corridor walls and demising walls. Passive fire protection is achieved primarily by the building’s concrete structure, which acts as a fire-rated enclosure for all exit stairs, firefighting elevators, and evacuation elevators. Critical fire safety system risers are incorporated into the building’s core.\nOne of the distinguishing features of the Jeddah Tower is the use of highly protected refuge floors every 20 floors, as mandated by local code. The refuge floors are full floors and, in an emergency, become safe areas for occupants’ evacuating the building. Occupants from the 20 floors above each refuge floor can evacuate their zone of the building using exit stairs to reach the refuge floor below. Each refuge floor is a safe area with minimum connections to other floors and includes independent mechanical systems. During an emergency, they serve as a staging area for elevator evacuation. Shuttle elevators are used to evacuate occupants from refuge floors to grade.\nOver the past 50 years, our approach to fire safety in tall buildings has evolved considerably, incorporating new technologies to provide buildings that are protected from a broad range of threats from fire, natural disasters, and malicious acts. As we keep building taller, our strategies and technologies will continue to evolve.■", "domain": "design"}

Although the science of low-temperature superconducting magnets is well developed, high-temperature superconductors present unique electrical and mechanical design challenges for magnetic suspensions. The design, analysis, and test of a scale-model magnetic suspension suitable for electrodynamic suspensions is the topic of this thesis. The test fixture allows low-friction motion of the levitating magnets, simulating the vertical movement of a Maglev train under external disturbances.\nA new low-cost, multiple-loop guideway has been built and tested, and resultant lift, drag, and guidance forces have been measured at operating speeds approaching that of an actual high-speed train. These results are compared to predictions based on simple circuit models with good results. Scaling laws have been derived and the circuit models have been used to size a full-scale system.\nThe test fixture has also been used to validate the concept of lift generation at zero velocity by AC excitation of the main magnet coils. Scaling laws have been applied and predictions made for a full-scale HTSC suspension. Further work in this area may help overcome one of the fundamental limitations of EDS Maglev --- zero levitation force at zero train velocity, requiring a mechanical suspension for slow speeds.\nA novel magnetic secondary suspension has been designed and tested, where vertical position has been monitored and damped in operating conditions that mimic actual Maglev train operating conditions. Results from these tests show that it may be possible to design an active secondary magnetic suspension based on high temperature superconductors, thereby removing the cost and additional complexity of a mechanical secondary suspension from the Maglev train design.\nThesis Supervisor: Professor Richard D.

In fact, in the independent tests we’ve conducted, it’s going to provide a ton of distance gain and less dispersion to a wider variety of skill levels than ever before.”\nThe FTSTM Technology allows adjustable sole weights to be moved to two alternate settings; an 11-gram weight in the heel, 3-gram weight in the rear for lower spin, slice-reducing shape and a medium launch and then the 3-gram weight in the heel and 11-gram weight in the rear for medium spin, neutral shape and a higher launch. Additional weight screws can be purchased as a kit that includes 6-gram, 9- gram and 14-gram weights.\nThe EXS fairway metal head features premium exotic metals; a brand new United States manufactured, high-density Carpenter steel. The hyper-strength strength steel is quench-hardened, a special heating technique that takes 750 degrees to provide an extreme amount of strength while allowing for a thinner face. This cup face design allowed for Tour Edge to make the face thinner than in any previous model for a greater energy transfer. The high- performance hexagonal Variable Face Thickness (VFT) offers multiple levels of thickness that maximize forgiveness from more points on the face, especially in the heel and toe areas.\nThe aerodynamics in the EXS fairway wood are greatly enhanced by new and improved wider SlipStream speed channels on the sole that create a faster clubhead speed due to smoother turf interaction. The CG location of the EXS is positioned closer to the face for less spin, creating a trajectory that fights wind and increases roll.\nAn ultra-premium Tensei CK Blue 2G shaft series by Mitsubishi Chemical is the chosen stock shaft for the EXS fairway metal. Extremely light yet extremely stable throughout, the Tensei Blue CK features advanced materials like Carbon Fiber and Kevlar mixed with other lightweight materials that weigh in\nthe 50-70 gram range depending on flex. A 50-gram weight will be available in Ladies, A-flex and Regular, a 60-gram shaft available in Regular, Stiff and X-flex and a 70-gram shaft available in Stiff and X-flex.\nThe Exotics EXS fairway metals are available in five different lofts; 13, 15 and 17 degree 3-woods, an 18 degree 5-wood and a 21 degree 7-wood. The 15 degree 3-wood is available in left handed.\nThe suggested retail price for the Exotics EXS fairway metal is $229.99.\nEvery Tour Edge club comes with a lifetime warranty and a 30-day play guarantee. For more information, call (800) 515-3343 or visit touredge.com.\nExotics EXS fairway metal Bullet Points\nFTSTM (Flight Tuning System) allows adjustable sole weights to be moved to two alternate settings:\n• FTS1 11-gram weight in the heel, 3-gram weight in the rear for lower spin, slice reducing shape, medium launch\n• FTS2 3-gram weight in the heel, 11-gram weight in the rear for medium spin, neutral shape, higher launch\nü Carbon Fiber Toe creates extreme weight savings re-distributed to optimized positions creating extremely high MOI\nü SlipStreamTM Sole with wider speed channels create an even faster clubhead speed by minimizing turf interaction\nü U.S. Carpenter Steel Cup Face quench-hardened high density steel made thinner for to-the- limit COR\nü Variable Face Thickness delivers legendary Exotics power from more contact points on the face\nü More forward CG reduces spin and adds more power from the face\nü Genuine Tour-preferred ultra-premium Mitsubishi Tensei shaft is extremely light yet extremely stable throughout\n*EXS fairway metal Alternate Weight Kit available separately with 6-gram, 9-gram and 14-gram weights\nAbout Tour Edge\nIn 1986, David Glod founded Tour Edge with a focus on offering golfers with high quality and technologically advanced golf products that were as cutting edge as they were affordable.

This style is better known today as a souvenir cuckoo clock.\nBahnhäusle style, a successful design from Furtwangen\nIn September 1850, the first director of the Grand Duchy of Baden Clockmakers School in Furtwangen, Robert Gerwig, launched a public competition to submit designs for modern clockcases, which would allow homemade products to attain a professional appearance.\nFriedrich Eisenlohr (1805–1854), who as an architect had been responsible for creating the buildings along the then new and first Badenian Rhine valley railroad, submitted the most far-reaching design. Eisenlohr enhanced the facade of a standard railroad-guard’s residence, as he had built many of them, with a clock dial.\nHis “Wallclock with shield decorated by ivy vines,” (in reality the ornament were grapevines and not ivy) as it is referred to in a surviving, handwritten report from the Clockmakers School from 1851 or 1852, became the prototype of today’s popular souvenir cuckoo clocks.\nEisenlohr was also up-to-date stylistically.\nHe was inspired by local images; rather than copying them slavishly, he modified them. Contrary to most present-day cuckoo clocks, his case features light, unstained wood and were decorated with symmetrical, flat fretwork ornaments.\nEisenlohr’s idea became an instant hit, because the modern design of the Bahnhäusle clock appealed to the decorating tastes of the growing bourgeoisie and thereby tapped into new and growing markets.\nWhile the Clockmakers School was satisfied to have Eisenlohr’s clock case sketches, they were not fully realized in their original form. Eisenlohr had proposed a wooden facade; Gerwig preferred a painted metal front combined with an enamel dial. But despite intensive campaigns by the Clockmakers School, sheet metal fronts decorated with oil paintings (or coloured litographs) never became a major market segment because of the high cost and labour-intensive process, so only a few were produced from the 1850s until around 1870 in both wall or mantel versions, and are nowadays sought-after collector pieces.\nCharacteristically, the makers of the first Bahnhäusle clocks deviated from Eisenlohr’s sketch in only one way: they left out the cuckoo mechanism. Unlike today, the design with the little house was not synonymous with a cuckoo clock in the first years after 1850. This is another indication that at that time cuckoo clocks could not have been an important market segment.\nIn December 1854, Johann Baptist Beha, the best known maker of cuckoo clocks of his time, sold two of them, with oil paintings on their fronts, to the Furtwangen clock dealer Gordian Hettich, which were described as Bahnhöfle Uhren (“Railroad station clocks”).\nMore than a year later, on January 20, 1856, another respected Furtwangen-based cuckoo clockmaker, Theodor Ketterer, sold one to Joseph Ruff in Glasgow (Scotland, United Kingdom).\nConcurrently with Beha and Ketterer, other Black Forest clockmakers must have started to equip Bahnhäusle clocks with cuckoo mechanisms to satisfy the rapidly growing demand for this type of clock.\nStarting in the mid-1850s there was a real boom in the cuckoo clock market.\nBy 1860, the Bahnhäusle style had started to develop away from its original, “severe” graphic form, and evolve, among other designs, toward the well-known case with three-dimensional woodcarvings, like the Jagdstück (“Hunt piece”, design created in Furtwangen in 1861), a cuckoo clock with carved oak foliage and hunting motives, such as trophy animals, guns and powder pouches.\nBy 1862 the reputed clockmaker Johann Baptist Beha, started to enhance his richly decorated Bahnhäusle clocks with hands carved from bone and weights cast in the shape of fir cones.\nEven today this combination of elements is characteristic for cuckoo clocks, although the hands are usually made of wood or plastic, white celluloid was employed in the past too. As for the weights, there was during this second half of the 19th century, a few models which featured weights cast in the shape of a Gnome and other curious forms.\nOnly ten years after its invention by Friedrich Eisenlohr, all variations of the house-theme had reached maturity.\nThere were also Bahnhäusle timepieces and its derivatives manufactured as mantel clocks but not as many as the wall versions.\nThe basic cuckoo clock of today is the railway-house (Bahnhäusle) form, still with its rich ornamentation, and these are known under the name of “traditional” (or carved); which display carved leaves, birds, deer heads (like the Jagdstück design), other animals, etc.\nThe richly decorated Bahnhäusle clocks have become a symbol of the Black Forest that is instantly understood anywhere in the world.\nEven today it is a favourite souvenir of travelers in Germany, Switzerland and Austria. The center of production continues to be the Black Forest region of Germany, in the area of Schonach and Titisee-Neustadt, where there are several dozen firms making the whole clock or parts of it.\nThe cuckoo clock became successful and world famous after Friedrich Eisenlohr contributed the Bahnhäusle design to the 1850 competition at the Furtwangen Clockmakers School.\nThe Chalet style cuckoo clock\nThe Chalet style originated at the end of the 19th century in Switzerland, and at that time they were highly valued as souvenirs. Indeed, music and jewelery boxes of several sizes as well as timepieces were manufactured in the shape of a typical Swiss chalet, some of those clocks also had the added feature of a cuckoo bird and other automations.\nThere are currently three basic Chalet styles, named after the different traditional houses depicted: Black Forest chalet, Swiss chalet (with two types the “Brienz” and the “Emmental”), and finally the Bavarian chalet.\nAlong with the common projecting bird, it may also display other types of animated figurines, examples include woodcutters, moving beer drinkers and turning water wheels. Some “traditional” style cuckoo clocks feature a music box and dancing figurines too.", "domain": "design"}

Here are some of the best ones among them:\n1. Svala – Vegan Luxury Handbag Brand\nBased in Los Angeles, USA\nBorn out of Helga Douglas’ love for animals and nature, Svala offers the finest quality handcrafted vegan handbags made from cork, pineapple leaves, recycled plastic bottles, and polyurethane. Their designs may not be the most innovative, but their attention to detail and quality make the brand stand out.\nEach bag is handcrafted in LA to meet the highest sustainability standards. The wallet purses have detachable chains, allowing them to be used two ways, and even the dust bags that Svala purses come with are made with organic cotton.\nMoreover, the vegan luxury purse brand donates 10% of its profits to various charity foundations, including those working to end illegal animal trading. So, when you buy a Svala handbag, you’re not only saying no to animal cruelty but also contributing to reducing it.\n2. Jill Milan – Vegan Luxury Handbag & Accessories Brand\nBased in San Francisco, USA\nItaly has been known for luxury fashion for centuries. The country is not only home to numerous luxury brands but is also a manufacturing hub for many overseas labels. Jill Milan is one of them.\nWhile it’s an American brand headquartered in San Francisco, its products are handcrafted in Italy by local artisans known for their finest craftsmanship.\nThe luxury brand was founded in 2010 only but has established a name for itself in a relatively small period of time with its excellent quality products. Jill Milan bags have made appearances on TV shows like Gossip Girl and red carpets in the hands of Hollywood celebrities like Anne Hathaway and Jennifer Lawrence.\nJill Milan’s line of products largely includes handbags that look leather-made but are completely vegan. Apart from them, the brand also offers fashion scarves.\nIf you’re looking to add some classic pieces to your vegan handbag and scarves collections, you should definitely check out Jill Milan.\nLike Svala, Jill Milan also donates 10% of its sales money to animal welfare organizations.\n3. Nanushka – Vegan Luxury Fashion Brand\nBased in Budapest, Hungary\nIf you’re looking for a one-stop shop to build a vegan luxury wardrobe, Nanushka will have you covered.\nThe Hungarian brand offers everything from clothes to bags and shoes to accessories for vegan fashionistas out there.\nDefining their style as Modern Bohemian, Nanushka offers items that are sleek, versatile, and chic yet not too formal. What’s more, it’s not just a women’s brand. Nanushka offers a huge variety of vegan products for men, too.\nIt’s also one of the few vegan luxury brands that use animal textures on their products. From blouses carrying a snakeskin print to faux croc bags and lizard skin belts, Nanushka has it all.\nThe brand also takes the lead in terms of variety. From clothing to accessories, there’s a huge variety of items, all made without animal ingredients and non-sustainable practices.\nThe fashion label was founded by a London College of Fashion graduate, Sandra Sandor, in 2005.\n4. Maison Atia – Vegan Luxury Outerwear Brand\nBased in New York City, USA\nAdding an outer layer to your clothing is one of the easiest ways to elevate your style and get a more chic yet sophisticated look.\nMaison Atia is a luxury brand that helps you do that by providing an extensive variety of vegan outerwear. But these aren’t just any outerwear. The brand specializes in what the non-vegan luxury clothing industry is most criticized for. Fur!\nIt’s not real fur, though, of course. But Maison Atia lets vegans feel what the hype around fur in the luxury fashion industry is all about.\nChloe Mandel, the designer behind this vegan luxury brand, has imitated the animal material beautifully and offers an incredible range of luxe faux fur vests, sweaters, jackets, boleros, and coats.\nWhile it’s essentially an outerwear brand, you can find some faux fur accessories and home goods, too, such as bags, eye masks, scarves, caps and hats, headbands, pillow covers, and throws.\nThe brand uses Koba to make faux fur, which, for those who may not know, is a fabric made from upcycled materials. It’s vegan and also eco-friendly.\n5. O2 Monde – Vegan Luxury Shoe Brand\nBased in NYC, USA\nO2 Monde is a luxury brand that brings vegan, sustainable shoes from Italy to fashion-forward women in the USA to help them meet their style needs without compromising their ideological commitment.\nO2 Monde shoes are handmade with love and care from natural plant materials at small, family-owned factories in Italy to ensure the best quality.\nKnowing that many vegans are also concerned about using adhesives that contain animal ingredients, O2 Monde ensures that every component of their shoes is animal-free and vegan-friendly, from adhesives to insoles to uppers.\nTo support sustainability in fashion, O2 Monde only makes shoes in small batches, so there’s no overstocking. The limited editions drop monthly to ensure there’s no shortage of products, either. It keeps consumers excited as well.\nThe materials O2 Monde vegan shoes are made of include (but are not limited to) recycled and recyclable rubbers, bio polyurethane, and cactus leather.\nThere are a variety of different types of shoes available at O2 Monde, including sandals, sneakers, boots, flats, and heels. But if you’re to define the brand’s style, it would be bold, chunky, and comfy.\n6. Votch – Vegan Luxury Watch Brand\nBased in London, UK\nStainless steel timepieces were once the only option for vegans looking to buy wristwatches. But those days are thankfully long gone. We now have several companies making vegan leather watches for those committed to a plant-based lifestyle.\nBut let’s face it – they are not all good quality. If truth be told, there are plenty of cheap vegan leather watch options on the market, and there’s a lack of classy ones. Votch fills up that space for luxury fashion buyers.\nThe vegan and cruelty-free watch company offers fine quality timepieces with super classy vegan straps made with vegan leather, Pinatex, and mesh.\nVotch watches are simple, chic, and elegant and are characterized by their unisex designs (they have designs specifically for men and women, too), oversized dials, and minimalistic frames.\nThe British vegan luxury watch company donates 10% of its sales to charity organizations every month (they choose a different one every time to make a wider impact).\nAlthough Votch is essentially a watch company, it also offers a few different types of vegan accessories. These include bags, purses, pouches, cardholders, and bangles.\n7. Benedetti Life – Luxury Vegan Clothing Brand\nBased in Ljubljana, Slovenia\nFounded by the award-winning designer and environmentalist Matera Benedetti in 2019, Benedetti Life isn’t just another vegan luxury fashion brand. It has a greater purpose than just serving fashion-forward vegans.\nThe brand aims to ‘promote slow fashion and give a voice to endangered species.’ The company also has PETA’s seal of approval.\nIf you’re looking to add some timeless pieces to your vegan wardrobe, shop from Benedetti Life’s animal-inspired clothing lines.\nThe brand uses sustainable fabrics, like organic cotton, plant-based silk, pineapple leather, and bamboo, to craft its luxury clothes.\nApart from its ethos, another factor that makes Benedetti Life stand out in the luxury/ vegan fashion world is that the brand caters to a wide variety of audiences.\nIn addition to usual western clothes, the brand also makes items for those who follow modest fashion. There are long dresses and vegan abayas for those who prefer more covered clothes.\nOne thing that stands out in Benedetti Life’s clothes is digital designs. The brand uses that because digital printing requires less water than traditional printing. Moreover, the dyes that are used are eco-friendly.\nThe range of products includes dresses, blazers, shirts, blouses, coats, jackets, pajamas, trousers, skirts, kaftans, abayas, and even raincoats. There are several items for men as well.\n8. Save the Duck – Luxury Vegan Winter Outerwear Brand\nBased in Milano, Italy\nEstablished with the mission ‘to create products that respect animals, the environment, and people,’ Save the Duck is an Italian brand that specializes in vegan and sustainable outerwear.\nThe brand makes vegan puffer jackets, parkas, rain jackets, and gilets, along with some accessories and shoes, primarily for the cold weather.\nSave the Duck uses Plumtech technology to replicate the fluffiness, lightness, and warmth of down and feather jackets. They also offer similar (if not the same) protection against cold, wind, and water as your standard ones without sacrificing animals for your safety.\nOne thing that makes Save the Duck different from all other vegan luxury brands on our list is that it doesn’t make items for men and women; it makes clothes for kids and pets, too. Isn’t it great?\nFor a long time, vegan fashion and luxury were considered the opposite of each other, and you would think of a hipster-looking person when people talked about vegans.\nBut times have changed, and we now have a rapidly-growing vegan luxury fashion world, making it easier for those belonging to this community to dress nicely and look as chic and stylish as their non-vegan counterparts without contributing to animal cruelty.\nIf you’re also looking to give your wardrobe a vegan makeover with some luxury pieces, do not forget to check out my suggested brands. You’ll find some really good options, I promise.\nThese brands will get your vegan wardrobe sorted, but what about perfumes? Check out my article Best Vegan Perfume Brands to get your hands on some animal-free fragrances as well.", "domain": "design"}

Here is a description of each layer in a perovskite stack and its potential roll-to-roll application:\n1. Substrate: The substrate layer provides mechanical support for the entire device and can be a flexible material such as plastic or metal foil. Roll-to-roll production allows for continuous deposition of the substrate material on a large-scale roll, enabling the fabrication of flexible solar cells.\n2. Transparent Conductive Oxide (TCO) Electrode: This layer is typically made of materials like indium tin oxide (ITO) or fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) and serves as a transparent electrode to allow light to pass through while collecting the generated charges. Roll-to-roll techniques, such as sputtering or chemical vapor deposition, can be used to deposit a uniform and conductive TCO layer on the substrate.\n3. Electron Transport Layer (ETL): The ETL facilitates the extraction of electrons from the perovskite layer and their efficient transport to the electrode. Materials like titanium dioxide (TiO2) or zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles are commonly used. Roll-to-roll methods like slot-die coating or spray coating can be employed to deposit the ETL layer uniformly over large areas.\n4. Perovskite Absorber Layer: This layer is the heart of the perovskite solar cell, consisting of an organometal halide perovskite material. The perovskite layer absorbs sunlight and generates electron-hole pairs. Various techniques, such as spin coating, inkjet printing, or blade coating, can be adapted for roll-to-roll production to deposit a continuous and uniform perovskite layer on the ETL.\n5. Hole Transport Layer (HTL): The HTL assists in the selective extraction and transport of the holes (positive charges) generated in the perovskite layer. Materials like polymeric hole-transport materials or small molecules like spiro-OMeTAD are commonly used. Roll-to-roll methods such as doctor blade coating or screen printing can be utilized to deposit the HTL layer uniformly on top of the perovskite layer.\n6. Metal Electrode: The metal electrode layer, often made of materials like silver or gold, collects the holes generated in the perovskite layer and completes the electrical circuit. Roll-to-roll techniques like thermal evaporation or sputtering can be employed to deposit a thin metal electrode layer on top of the HTL.\nRoll-to-roll production allows for the continuous deposition of each layer on a flexible substrate, enabling the manufacturing of perovskite solar cells in a cost-effective and scalable manner. Techniques such as slot-die coating, spray coating, inkjet printing, blade coating, doctor blade coating, and screen printing are all compatible with roll-to-roll processes and can be adapted for each layer of the perovskite stack. These methods ensure uniformity, high throughput, and precise control over layer thickness, making roll-to-roll production an attractive option for large-scale manufacturing of perovskite solar cells.", "domain": "design"}

So, in order to get the best out of your website, you need to get the best digital marketers involved from the beginning.\nFor instance, in the light of the global pandemic that’s ongoing, many edtech companies and related sectors reached out to affected sectors to help out the best way they can. Digital technology’s effect on education has never been as felt as now.\nEven web products not related to the education market found a way to capture students and educators surging online for distance learning. They included this in their marketing campaigns and customized some products for education in the new normal.\nSuch campaigns are the brainchild of digital marketers finding ways to increase brand awareness in a time of global crisis. And web design is a big part of these marketing campaigns.\nWeb design is more than just aesthetics. Any element of your online presence is influenced by great web design. Ensure that your website is one of the primary sources of information about your company and promotion in the online world.\nGiven that design is concerned with graphic elements and SEO is concerned with making your website discoverable, it may seem that SEO and web design are independent of each other. Designers and SEOs can execute very different activities, but that doesn’t mean they work together.\nWhen combined, the two will have a significant effect on your company’s profits. That’s why, whether you’re considering getting a website built or revamped, it’s critical to understand why website design and SEO are necessary — and what that means for your site.\nHow Web Design Boosts Your SEO\n1. Page Layout and Formatting\nThe design of your page is critical. The interface will vary in anything from the size of the text to where you place information, links, and images. Users would be dissatisfied with a website that has little or excessive font size.\nIt is necessary to use a standard font size and to remember the color of both the text and the context. Using a difficult-to-read backdrop and font color would also prevent users from engaging with your content.\nIt means they can skip vital details or abandon the website entirely.\nYour URL can also be updated to a worded structure, such as www.Google.com rather than www.Google.com/?page id=2021.\nCompanies in this day and age are so many different online businesses that if they are dissatisfied with your website or what you have to sell, they will quickly find it elsewhere.\nSo, you must make sure that your page layout and formatting are user-friendly and accessible. The more readers and visitors engage with your site content, the greater your dwell time will be. Higher dwell time means a lower bounce rate. These are part of the SEO metrics that search engines look for to determine SERP (Search Engine Results Page) rankings.\n2. Navigation and Accessibility\nNavigation is one of the essential components of a great user experience, and because of that, you should keep it simple. The more efficiently your web users will discover what they’re looking for, the more likely they are to convert.\nEasy-to-use navigation also lowers your visitors’ chances of getting confused, leaving your site, lowering your bounce rate, and improving your rankings.\nAlthough your designers may be more concerned with the non-text elements on your site, they must choose fonts and sizes that are easy to read for your guests.\nThe designer should know to leave plenty of room for copy. To rank high, you’ll need a lot of valuable, optimized content that can help the SEO of your site. Sometimes, designers might have difficulty aligning their design with the corporate objectives because they like their design.\nBut a good designer can use their design to boost corporate objectives to the best of their capacity. They can strategically combine aesthetics with function, so they create designs that convert as well.\n4. High-quality Imagery\nAnother element that can boost your dwell time and domain authority is including high-quality imagery in your web design. It boosts your user’s trust in your website. It is why web design has a significant role in businesses. Most users will leave a website and cease any business because they did not like the web design.\nA good web design is both visually pleasing and navigable, which encourages greater engagement with on-site. It will improve chances for conversions and improve SEO rankings.\nGood design delivers a one-two punch that makes consumers overcome their natural distrust of brands, allowing them to enter into a partnership with your business more efficiently.\nYou must also have quality material on your website. By combining high-quality content with eye-catching graphics, you encourage visitors to associate with your content, indicating to search engines that your platform is trustworthy and deserving of ranking.\n5. High-Quality and Relevant Content\nAside from keywords, the content is the most critical part of creating a website. The content can be anything from the types of words used on a webpage to pictures to sound clips and any content that gives a user information about a business. Content is significant to your website.\nThe content on your homepage will help a user determine whether they want to keep reading or check out what is on the other pages. It is the first thing users see. If you will take your time on something on your website, it should be the content. Content planning will make or break your website’s success.\n6. Keyword Research\nKeywords assist a search engine in knowing that a website is attempting to communicate and whether it is relevant and helpful to people. You need to know what users in your target market are using to search for information on the web.\nWhat problems do they have that pushed them to search on the internet in the first place? And does your website provide some solutions to those problems? If your website can add value to users, then search engines will rank you high in SEO, so users find your site better.\nSo start a keyword analysis and see what consumers are looking for and how competitive the market is. There are online resources that will assist you in determining which keywords would be more effective for you to use while building your website. Your web design should also reflect this value. Include keywords in your images, videos, titles, and tags as well.\nIt’s normal for SEO to expect a keyword to appear once every 100 sentences. It means that if a page has 200 words, you can use the keyword twice, each time in a different way. It’s crucial not to overuse keywords, as search engines also consider when determining SEO rankings.\nIt’s also a social media trend to include keywords you rank for in your campaigns. Use them as hash words in your posts to keep echoing your keywords online.\n7. Site Speed\nA 100-millisecond delay in load time will reduce conversions by 7%. A sluggish website can kill your conversion rates. Your web design has to be fast to keep users on-site, which boosts your SEO ranking.\nIf users get tired of waiting for your site to launch, they will leave in a matter of seconds. Google will consider that you’re giving its users a bad experience. Therefore, it will lower your search engine rank.\nMake sure that your website has robust protection against the most prevalent cybersecurity risks. One of the significant effects of a cyber attack is crippling your site’s performance and speed. In most cases, it is worse, as your website can get taken down by a cyberattack or taken down by the search engines because of spam issues. Improve and protect your site’s speed and performance with a robust cybersecurity strategy that fights against malware attacks and detects them before it’s too late.\nConclusion: Improving Your Web Design Boosts Your SEO\nWeb design affects user experience, but it also affects search engine rankings. Poor web design practices lower your SEO rank, showing your site lower in search. That directly affects your business’s bottom line, which is why it’s so important to invest in SEO-focused web design from the start. Combine marketing and web design best practices to create a site that looks great and ranks highly in search.\nIt can take months to see significant SEO results, but it is necessary to ensure a business can thrive in this highly digital age. There is so much competition out there. With SEO in mind, your website is on its way to ranking higher than if you have to go back and rebuild it. By keeping these factors in mind from the very beginning of building your website, you can only benefit in the end.\nAUTHOR: MAYLEEN MEÑEZ\nMayleen Meñez used to work in media before finding her true passion in NGO work, traveling the Philippines and Asia doing so.

Peter recognized an exciting opportunity to import and distribute gold leaf products here in the U.S. By the eighties, the gold leaf market outpaced the Agency business, and the full change over to import and distribution happened when SeppLeaf Products was incorporated in 1984.\nOur leadership now includes Peter's daughter Lauren, and team members are logistics, procurement, admin, gilders, tech and sales support specialists who have been with us for decades. Whether the project you bring is historic or contemporary, small or large, local or international, we are always thrilled to welcome and support our SeppLeaf family of artists and artisans.\nLauren Sepp, who is Vice President of SeppLeaf Products, is the third generation in her family business which specializes in gilding products for the trade.

As long as I can remember I have been knitting or crocheting or doing some form of craft work. It was just something that my family did, and there is still nothing better than sitting on a Saturday night with my Mum and my sister Lorna chatting and knitting and making things. We started our knitting craft business ECdesigns 30 years ago, knitting lots of the Jean Greenhowe Christmas decorations, we knit so many decorations that we decided we needed an outlet for our work, looking around we found a Christmas Craft Fair in our local area and decided to go to that. The morning of the fair was terrifying as we set out our stall and wondered if anyone would buy anything. It was successful, we sold most of our stock that day and that gave us the Craft Fair bug. Since then we have travelled the length and breadth of Northern Ireland selling our knitted dolls. Sometimes doing really well and other times selling nothing, but whether we sell anything or not we always enjoy ourselves and come home with new ideas and ready to make more dolls. We no longer make just Christmas Decorations; we make a wide variety of character dolls, ECdesign dolls are well knit and individual, each doll has its own personality, some of the character dolls we knit cannot be found anywhere else as we make the patterns for them. Each doll is hand knit and finished off to a very high standard using good quality wool and non-allergenic, washable toy stuffing.\nI have now moved on to create original knitting patterns, I love this new area of design and I am always looking for new ideas.\nUpdate 2020 - I am still knitting!! and because of the current situation with the Corona Virus Pandemic, I'm knitting and designing toys more than ever. I was delighted to have one of my knitting patterns featured in Knit Now Magazine - Issue 117 June 2020, The Mermaid. I am also looking forward to Issue 122 of Knit Now Magazine, its a Christmas issue and my Santa & Mrs Claus will be in it :)", "domain": "design"}

My head is still spinning! I decided to be very patient and wait until Fall to have the shots done so I could use them for our Christmas cards. A few weeks ago I started looking around online for some ideas to showcase my new family portraits. I settled on a simple card design that looks very similar to the one above. After checkout, envelopes, shipping and taxes they came out to about $2.05 per card! I want about 100 cards, so that's over $200 bucks for me -um, I'll pass. I looked at the cheaper options and they still priced for over $1.00 per card and they looked, well, cheaper. Of course, because I have nothing else in my life to accomplish, I decided to figure out how to do it myself. Now you too can have your cards printed, for an average of .50 cents per card (including envelopes).\nWARNING: This is the longest post ever, but still these are so easy to make.

The Kodak Kodachrome was the world’s first colour slide film and a commercial success for decades. When Charlotte Desaga starts the new season with the opening of Marcel Hiller’s exhibition “DESAGA” on September 7th 2012, Kodak will already be insolvent for months. Google, Samsung and Apple are aiming to bid on the patents of the company, whose trade name Kodak is most likely to remain—but in a way that is detached from the material, which the brand actually stands for since the company’s founding in 1892. The name Kodak will seize to represent a unity of film and apparatus that is easy to operate, even by amateurs: YOU PUSH THE BUTTON, WE DO THE REST.\nWith his work, Marcel Hiller (born 1982) negotiates the situational conditions of approved spaces. By orchestrating these spaces, he sharpens their readability—in opposition to their neutralizing representative claims. At Galerie Desaga’s new premises, there will be objects of imagined use and imagined function that don’t take shape through the concreteness of their imagination conception, but through their potential of representation and usefulness. Marcel Hiller will develop a new logo for the exhibition DESAGA. It will turn the gallery’s designation into a diagram that serves as a formal instrument, trace and mark. Hiller uses the logo as a matrix for decision-making, for tracing formally and informally claimed structures, which are linked and materialised within the architecture of space and artistic production—just like the gallery itself. By blurring the clear concepts of object, sign and claim, Marcel Hiller binds a diagram of his first gallery solo show to the medium of spatial staging.", "domain": "design"}

With a minimum of six layers, each meticulously applied and requiring drying periods of 24 to 48 hours, my art comes to life with an extraordinary depth. I take pride in mixing my colors using high-quality artist pigments, ensuring that each original carries the essence of my vision and my recognizable color pallete. To protect and preserve my creations, I exclusively use nontoxic museum and conservation-grade epoxy resin, guaranteeing long-lasting beauty that won't yellow with age. What makes these creations truly one-of-a-kind is the breathtaking depth achieved through many layers, creating an almost three-dimensional effect. I invite you to interact with each piece, as they beckon to be picked up and explored. By moving them around, you can witness the captivating color-changing and holographic effects that unfold within the intricate layers.\n\"Desert Dreamscapes\" is inspired by the untamed wildlife and majestic landscapes of the American West, this collection transports you to the ancient and mystical realms of the desert. Throughout history, this otherworldly terrain has drawn seekers of enlightenment, offering transformative experiences and a respite from the constraints of everyday life. With \"Desert Dreamscapes,\" you too can embark on this soul-stirring journey.\nImmerse yourself in the ethereal splendor of a desert night sky, adorned with holographic moon halos and a myriad of stars that twinkle above. Hand-painted wildlife gracefully soar and leap amidst the dreamy vista, their presence adding a touch of enchantment to the glittering cacti that punctuate the landscape. Beneath the layers of resin lies a world of psychedelic beauty, with highly pigmented backgrounds flowing in a mesmerizing palette and vibrant hues that evoke adventure seeking emotions. Delight in the color-changing pigments that dance across the surface with Claudine's self created holographic and crackling techniques, reveal the cracks in our perceived reality, a visual representation of the fragile nature of existence.\nThese original pieces are an extraordinary addition to any space, infusing your home with an aura of mysticism and a connection to the timeless wonders of the desert. Allow \"Desert Dreamscapes\" to transport you to a realm where imagination and reality intertwine, where the enchanting beauty of the desert unveils its secrets.\nIn my captivating Nautical Whimsy resin series, I delve into the fluidity of sea breezes and swirling waves. Each element, from the graceful seagulls with their feathered wings and webbed feet, to the vibrant palette of warm and cold colors, serves as a symbolic portrait of the harmony between air and water, ocean and sky. The resin application grants these pieces a lustrous, ocean-like surface, adorned with glimmering sparkles that resemble the dance of sunlight on water. These one-of-a-kind originals boast remarkable depth created through multiple layers, achieving an almost three-dimensional effect. My ultimate goal is to transport viewers into a captivating world of colorful ocean adventures, where seagulls glide along through the currents, marine life playfully frolic in the waves, and sunsets and shooting stars grace the sky.", "domain": "design"}

It has so many ways that it can be customized for each home and the possibilities are nearly endless. This can make it a challenge for a newcomer who doesn’t have a clue where to begin. This list of tips can prepare you for the challenge.\nMaking a pond on your property can be a home improvement project that will beautify the outside of your home. Not only can it make a great place to put a picnic table, but you can enjoy nature and even fish out of your pond, provided you make it big enough.\nIf you are renovating a small room, consider making use of built-in mirrors. The reflection from a carefully-positioned mirror will make a small room seem considerably more spacious. A mirror near the window can add more natural light to a dim room. Avoid overusing mirrors or placing them opposite of each other, however, as this can create strange lighting effects.\nThere are a few ways to deal with screws that are too tight or too loose in your home. Use clear nail polish to tighten screws that are too loose. To loosen screws that are too tight, try adding peroxide or ammonia, letting them soak for just a few minutes before attempting to unscrew.\nAlways use a guide when you are using a circular saw. A guide is a straight piece of material that you may simply push the saw against while you are cutting. Circular saws are notoriously difficult to control, and by simply clamping down a scrap piece of wood, you will ensure a straighter, more controlled cut.\nIf you have a small bathroom, consider finding ways to save space as your next home improvement project. It is easy to use an adjacent closet or to reformat an old kitchen cabinet into a new storage facility for your bathroom. Always make sure not to remove any structural support that the room has.\nBuy any home improvement supplies you need in bulk to get larger savings. Ensure that you store your supplies in a cool, dry place where they won’t be damaged so that they will last the length of your project. If you have any neighbors also doing work, consider asking them to go in on a bulk order with you so you both can save.\nA full remodel of your kitchen and counter tops can be very expensive. For a more affordable update, consider having your counter tops refinished by a local contractor. This is also an option for anyone who wants to change the look and feel of their kitchen but cannot afford to completely replace cabinetry.\nBefore you begin your next home improvement project, ask for help from friends and family members. If you wait until you have already started, it may be difficult to find the help you need. You may also have trouble finishing your project on time, adding extra stress to your work.\nYour house can look more chic by adding a little garden area in the front. First decide what kinds of plants are able to grow in your climate and purchase them from a store. Plant them in a nice design near your porch or doorstep. For a nicer and cleaner finish, add some small fencing around your garden area to fully define the space.\nTo keep your painting equipment from crusting up or getting dry when you take a break, keep Ziploc baggies handy. When you go on your break, put every brush or roller head in a bag and seal. This prevents the paint already on the brushes from drying out before you apply another coat.\nWhen working on a home improvement project, make sure to buy high quality materials. You can save money initially if you buy appliances or cabinets that have imperfections but using these materials could reduce the value of your residence. If you always purchase the best for your home, the results will be astonishing.\nWhen you are remodeling or taking on several home improvement projects at once, think about working from the top down. It is important to use careful planning in deciding what order to do in each phase of your project. It is often smarter to start doing things near the top of the room and work your way down toward the floor. This way, any messes you make fall down to the parts below that have yet to be replaced.\nPay attention to how the sun hits your home and how much sun it receives when choosing paint colors for the exterior. Check out paint samples at various times of day to see how they might look in different amounts of light. Don’t forget to test your trim and accent colors in the sunlight too.\nImprove the look of your kitchen with a natural stone counter-top. Stone counter-tops come in a range of patterns and colors, and are possibly the most durable surface that you can choose. Sold in slabs, they are waterproof and heat resistant, and resist scratches and stains. There are a number of popular natural stone counter-tops to choose from, including marble, slate, granite and soapstone. While they tend to be quite expensive, it is worth the investment, as they last a very long time, and add value to your house.\nYou may need to repaint a porch. Use a good quality exterior paint. But be sure to use a paint with the same base as the old paint: oil over oil-based, and water (latex)over water-based paint. Oil-based paint is good for trim, as it lasts longer, but should not be used on a deck or floor outdoors, as it becomes very slippery with snow.\nHome improvement is indeed a thing of great variety with so many strategies and plans and that is both its gift and its curse. It’s a gift because it has many options that are customizable and it’s a curse because, oftentimes, too many options make it difficult to decide. These tips should have made it a bit easier for you.", "domain": "design"}

Because Denver is currently in the middle of a real estate boom, new homes and buildings are being demolished every day to make room for new construction. Lucky for us, this results in an influx of salvaged materials- especially fence wood!\nWhy use reclaimed fence wood?\nOur love of reclaimed fence wood comes from our appreciation of its modern yet rustic style (it’s the perfect aesthetic combination!), our commitment to sustainability through repurposing materials others have discarded (it’s eco-friendly!), and the simplicity of application for builders and DIY-ers of all levels (it’s easy!).\nReclaimed fence wood is typically quite lightweight, so just about anyone can move it, lift it, and work with it! As long as you have some basic tools (ideally a pin nailer) and the ability to sand down rough edges (we recommend grabbing an affordable electric sander like this one), you can work with fence wood! As opposed to most reclaimed barn wood, which is much harder to come by, fence wood is typically more affordable and accessible, which is certainly an added bonus.\nBeyond that, we just love having the ability to give new life and new potential to salvaged materials like reclaimed fence wood. Nothing breaks our hearts like seeing a heap of construction “garbage” (translation: treasure) being taken to the dump without a second thought. The first owners may be done using the wood, but that’s no reason for its journey to end there! After all, this fence wood spent years growing into strong, beautiful trees before being harvested- we might as well make the most of that!\nWhere can I find reclaimed fence wood for my project?\nFrom us, of course! Our team is constantly on the lookout for high quality fence wood that’s no longer being used. In fact, our resident lumber expert Chris has been known to jump into dumpsters from time to time when he spots a gem. It takes some effort, expertise, and enthusiasm, but it’s worth it when happy customers send us photos of their finished projects!\nFeel free to stop in at The Antique Broker to browse our reclaimed fence wood selection, or order it online in bundles to suit your needs! We sell reclaimed fence wood in multiple colors and finishes, but the original/natural look is the most popular.\nWhat kinds of projects can I use reclaimed fence wood for?\nThe only limit is your imagination! Our customers primarily use reclaimed fence wood for accent walls in their homes, but it can be used to add a unique twist to just about any room or project! Below you’ll find our top five favorite uses for reclaimed fence wood, but please feel free to add suggestions and ideas in the comments section!\nNext time you stop in to see us at The Antique Broker, be sure to ask for Chris and he’ll help you pick out the perfect reclaimed fence wood for your planet-friendly home decor project!\n#1: Reclaimed Fence Wood Accent Walls\nFence wood accent walls are certainly becoming the most popular use of reclaimed fence wood, as more and more creative DIY homeowners discover its magic. Weathered fence wood, whether painted or left in its original condition, immediately transforms the feel of any room. There is plenty of inspiration to be found on our Accent Wall Pinterest Board, but these are some of our favorite looks:\n#2: Reclaimed Fence Wood Headboards\nWe love the way a reclaimed wood headboard elevates the feel of a bedroom. This kind of modern rustic touch is especially appreciated by people who rent out rooms or homes through services like Airbnb, because the updated photos make the rental space look all that more special and inviting! For headboards, you’ll obviously want to find pre-sanded fence wood or sand the fence wood meticulously yourself. Get some bedroom inspiration from these reclaimed looks:\n#3: Reclaimed Fence Wood Picture Frames\nAdd something extra special to your photographed memories with a DIY reclaimed wood frame! Depending on the image you’re planning to frame, you may want to add some paint, but that all depends on your style. Handmade reclaimed wood frames make excellent gifts, especially if the recipient cares about repurposing materials! These are just a few photos to get you feeling crafty:\n#4: Reclaimed Fence Wood Garden Planters\nPut your reclaimed fence wood back into nature where it belongs by letting it support the growth of other plants! My husband built us a raised garden bed out of fence wood this year, and it’s been a nonstop conversation starter with visitors. When your garden bed has a history, it looks much more natural than those made with brand new store-bought lumber. Here are some photos to get your creativity (and hopefully your green thumb) flowing!\n#5: Reclaimed Fence Wood House Number Signs\nFront door areas are often overlooked, even by those of us who care deeply about design! You can easily add some upscale curb appeal to your entrance with a simple DIY house number sign. These house number sign projects require less time and fewer materials (just grab yourself some metal numbers on Etsy!) than some of the previously mentioned ideas, so this might be a good place to start if you’re a beginner!

He holds a BFA degree in Photography, as well as an MFA degree in Digital Arts from Pratt Institute in New York. He has shown artwork in galleries across the country and internationally, recently including the Los Angeles Center for Digital Art, Paradigm Gallery, and Arch Enemy Arts. He has published two artist books featuring his long-term personal projects Sumeru and Ultima. Many of his images have been recognized with awards from the International Photography Awards, the Adobe Design Achievement Awards, and the Photoshop Guru Awards. His work has been featured in numerous publications such as Vogue, Create Magazine, Juxtapoz, Hi-Fructose, and on the covers of Photoshop User and After Capture. In the past few years he has also completed Artist Residencies at the Banff Center in Canada, the Gullkistan Residency in Iceland, and the Starry Night Retreat in New Mexico.\nMy artwork is primarily inspired by my experience with nature and environmentalism. It is specifically motivated by my concern for the future due to the effects of climate change and many other environmental impacts humans have had on the planet. With carbon emissions reaching levels not seen in 15 million years, the atmosphere is currently on course towards a ‘climate crisis’ where modern civilization could become unsustainable. From melting polar ice caps, ocean acidification, and sea level rise to historic droughts, stronger wildfires, and more extreme weather events, we are quickly approaching a strange and unpredictable future. We now live in a precarious time where there are many tipping points that could lead us over the edge to a point of no return. This work explores the idea that the world as we know it might not be around forever, and questions the legacy that modern humanity will be handing down to future generations. My goal with these projects is to visually depict this modern conflict between the natural world and the manmade world in interesting and provocative ways, to create elaborate, photorealistic images that show a striking contrast between utopian and dystopian visions of the world. I portray this as an epic struggle and in my work these forces clash in theatrical, post-apocalyptic battlegrounds.\nWith much of my work, my main goal is to achieve a high-quality aesthetic of photographic believability, using my camera and digital tools to construct a complex collage of manipulated images. Each piece is carefully planned out and created as an intricately layered construction, which gives it such a hyper-real, illustrative quality. In terms of technique, I am very influenced by contemporary photo-based artists like Simen Johan, Robert ParkeHarrison, and Kahn & Selesnick, whose work similarly uses composited imagery to distort ideas of photographic truth, and create new worlds through their projects. Aesthetically, in many of my pieces I want to create a background vision of natural beauty and the sublime, so I am also often referencing early American artists from the Hudson River School. Through my work, I like to use this style of picturesque landscape imagery, juxtaposed with subversive elements from modern civilization. With this idea I am very inspired by the Pop Surrealism/Lowbrow aesthetic, especially with artists taking on environmental concepts like Josh Keyes and Walton Ford. Locally in Utah, I think my work resonates well with artists using nature as their subject matter like Claire Taylor and Mary Toscano, as well as with the collage-style printmaking work of Andrew Rice, and with Ed Bateman’s elaborate digital images.\n“Writing on the Wall”\nI am excited to apply for the UMOCA Residency, as this opportunity would give me the ability to focus on research and experimentation to take my work in some very interesting new directions. Over the course of the residency I’m planning to experiment with new techniques in photography, digital imaging, and printmaking, and see where this path takes me creatively. Much of my past work has explored the conceptual boundary between photography and illustration, taking advantage of digital imaging tools to create new worlds with my photographs. For this project, my goal is to push this idea farther, and create even more surreal work that challenges photographic perceptions of reality. I am greatly inspired by a Dadaist quote that I use often which says, “Art is not a mirror held up to reality, but a hammer with which to shape it.” So in my work I try to incorporate this idea that art can be used as a tool to raise awareness about things like scientific truth and social justice, to inspire action, and to get people to think about the kind of future we are creating. For my residency project I want to take many of these conceptual motivations concerning environmental issues like climate change, and create a new body of work for a gallery installation under the tentative working title, “Writing on the Wall”.\nWith this project, I’m very interested in exploring the concept of disrupting the picture plane, and creating more collage-style photographic images. I want to expand on many of these ideas I’ve been starting to investigate like using diptychs and groupings to continue an image through multiple frames (like “Sanctuary” and “Migration”), or revealing different layers of imagery within the same piece (like “Slash+Burn”). I’m also most interested in creating an installation using highly stylized and patterned wallpaper imagery (like my piece “Canopy”). For example, I’m very influenced by the bold and colorful work of the art collaborative FAILE, and their incredible integration of collage, sculpture, and installation. For my residency project I want to create an installation in the gallery that incorporates all of these mediums, to create beautifully detailed pieces that subvert and question the world around us. Specifically, I’m envisioning a wallpaper installation on the full back wall, with large framed pieces, diptychs, picture groupings, and possibly sculptures filling in the surrounding areas. The concept, “Writing on the Wall”, is that this installation will be about beautiful decay, with my pieces revealing a satirically post-apocalyptic vision of the not too distant future.\nThe UMOCA Artist-in-Residence program would be a huge benefit to my creative and professional development as an artist. Hearing insights about my work from visiting curators, critics, and lecturers would be invaluable. Also, having a studio space to create and work on projects would be a great resource, especially to have room to set up studio lighting to photograph different subject matter, and the wall space to hang a lot of large-scale printed work to help build up my concepts. Exhibiting this new body of work in the A-I-R Space at the end of the year would also be such an honor. Thank you for your consideration, I think my work highlights many interesting techniques and innovative ideas, and I would love to share my residency project with the local artistic community.\nPlease view more examples of my work, technique, and creative process through the links below:\nWEBSITE – https://nick-pedersen.com\nPORTFOLIO – https://www.behance.net/nickpedersen\nNew Sample Project\nI also wanted to include a newer project I recently started on about the “Inversion” problem in Salt Lake City, to give a sense of my current ideas that could be incorporated into the residency. These are very rough mockups but I think it shows my concept of a satirically colorful dystopia that visualizes the effects of carbon emissions in Utah. Mainly, I want to use this idea of the mist covering everything as a metaphor, representing the existential dread that humanity is facing with anthropogenic climate change.", "domain": "design"}

While recent advances have led to significantly improved detection accuracy on various benchmarks, existing deep learning models are vulnerable to invisible to the human eye changes in the input image which raises concerns about its safety. A popular and simple technique for improving robustness is using data augmentation. In this work, the robustness of existing data augmentation techniques is evaluated to propose a new simple augmentation scheme where during training, an image is combined with a patch of a stylized version of that image. Evaluation of pedestrian detection models robustness and uncertainty calibration under naturally occurring corruption and in realistic cross-dataset evaluation setting is conducted to show that our proposed solution improves upon previous work. In this paper, the importance of testing the robustness of recognition models is emphasized and it shows a simple way to improve it, which is a step towards creating robust pedestrian and object detection models.", "domain": "design"}

The shelf units are placed in public space and filled with countless everyday objects. Shelving systems are storage units. Their aim is to establish order. They can be used to archive or exhibit material, to display collected items, beloved objects or forgotten things. They are also a treasure trove and a place for storing keepsakes and memories.\nIn PICK’n’PLACE, the shelving systems and their surroundings thus become a unique and individual venue for each of the two performers. As they use, empty and arrange the contents of the shelves, they themselves become part of the order or disorder of the system.\nA microcosm is created, reflecting the systems that underpin social order and our way of life. Via processes of abstraction, distortion and dismantlement through to self-abandonment, the two performers bring previously hidden things into the public view, thus exposing and displaying our true inner being. Manic aspects of the “shelf cosmos” lay bare the excesses of our society. The performance installations present personal items and patterns of behaviour, revealing in a subtle and surreal manner the externalisation of our inner selves and showing the interplay between public order and individual liberty.\nPICK’n’PLACE is a game about placing and displacing – a shifting of our inner and outer worlds.\nPICK’n’PLACE opens the URBAN-CITY-URBAN project cycle.\nOver the next three years, Angie Hiesl and Roland Kaiser will realise the multi-part URBAN-CITY-URBAN project cycle for public urban space. The works deal with urban development and structural changes, with the impact of performance/installation art on public space and vice versa. Artistic forms for dealing with public space and passers-by/the audience are developed. And in the process, new approaches to portraying the human condition, and in particular the human body, in private and public space are explored.\nURBAN-CITY-URBAN comprises project modules with different artistic approaches: performance projects | improvised interventions | performance lectures. It is conceived as an interdisciplinary project and the performers are selected from the fields of dance, theatre,\nperformance, music and science as well as from other occupational areas and walks of life. The projects take place outdoors as sitespecific work in public urban space.\nWorld premiere Friday 1 October 2010\nFurther performances: 2.10. | 8.10. | 9.10. | 14.10. | 15.10. 2010\nAll performances start at 3 pm and last about 5 hours\nPerformance locations: Friesenplatz and Hans-Böckler-Platz, 50672 Cologne/Germany\nAdmission is free\nInfo point Friesenplatz, Cologne\nIn the event of rain, performances may start later or be postponed to another day.\nFor details, call this mobile number: 01578-8942438 or visit www.angiehiesl.de\nThank you for their support to the Cologne Dance Center and Silvana Sprich, Praxis für physikalische Therapie.", "domain": "design"}

Create something beautiful using astronomy images with, at a minimum, our name, logo and our url address. If your design is chosen, we’ll award you with a copy of the book Skyglow. Any member can create a design, but astro-images should be done by an RCA member and have their permission for use. The final size will be 33\" x 78.\" A high-resolution PDF would work well. We’d like to have these ready for next year’s events, so the deadline is Dec. 31 for submitting your entry.

I freely admit, I am a big fan of high-viz (I am very much a child of the 80s), but the high-viz stuff can be quite garish, or high-viz is used quite sparingly, so you’re not so highly visible anymore. Not so with the Fusion jacket.\nIt looks stylish, with a generous sprinkling of fluo yellow and reflective details, without being in your face and screaming construction works.\nWhat’s more, the reflective details are actually quite clever. There are two broad reflector strips on the left arm, and reflective print dotted over the jacket. The really cool bit are the contrast seams. They’re underlaid with reflective material, so that you’re gaining 360° visibility. Real cool and real clever, because you don’t notice at first glance. So a big thumbs up in the looks department.\nHow about the functionality? The jacket has a lovely, fleecy and soft inside so it feels comfortable on the skin, whether you’re wearing a base layer or not. I haven’t worn it yet on the bike, but I have taken it out on a run when gale force winds were blowing, which made the temperature feel like -2C. The Fusion jacket did a brilliant job keeping me nice and warm during my run despite the wind. I have absolutely no doubt, it will be brilliant on the bike as well. On the back, it has 3 easy to access pockets. To test, I put my keys in one of them. There was no jingling to be heard and no annoying bouncing about. The grippers around the hip seam kept it all securely in place. The long zip on the front works flawlessly and can be operated with one hand. So thumbs up on the functionality side.\nFitwise, the jacket is brilliant, too. I usually wear a women’s size M and based on the size chart, selected a men’s size S. And it fits me perfectly. The arms are just the right length. It’s snug but not constricting and with enough room to wear a base layer or longsleeves jersey underneath (if it gets really, really cold).\nAt £88, it offers excellent value for money due to its insulating qualities and the excellent visibility. You’ll get lots of wear out of it, because it can be worn well into spring with a light base layer underneath and throughout winter with a warmer base layer if required.\nOverall, the Primal Fusion jacket is an ace piece of kit that I wouldn’t want to miss from my closet anymore.", "domain": "design"}

When I looked up “memorial tattoos”, however, I have to say I was not fond of the results in searches.\nEverything was so morbid…just sporting a name, birth and death dates, wings, footprints, crosses, etc.\nI knew I wanted to be reminded of April’s life. I wanted the tattoo to remind me to celebrate her life.\nApril’s life may have been only minutes, but it was an amazing life that has and will continue to impact SO MANY others. I wanted to capture that, and I also wanted the tattoo to be a beautiful piece of artwork.\nMy idea slowly transformed over the last few weeks. I wanted flowers in her honor. I ended up choosing to do 3 flowers- one for each of the 3 copies of chromosome 13 (trisomy 13).\nI also wanted her heartbeat right above mine. I had the ultrasound tech print out a copy of her heartbeat at our anatomy scan.\nAnd finally (the last minute addition)- her wings. She earned her wings with grace, dignity, strength, and honor. I wanted those represented.\nSo many of the blankets, outfits and gifts we had received for her had butterflies on them. It was perfect.\nThe butterfly that is on this tattoo is just perfect. Not only does it represent her wings, it has the turquoise color of her original December birthstone.\nThis tattoo came together perfectly. April Rey’s heartbeat will forever be placed right above my own.\nI was thrilled when I found a tattoo artist close by that was willing to take on the project. Kinsey Roehm at Tattooed Heart Studios is a master watercolor tattoo artist! I fell in love with her gift for drawing abstract watercolor pieces, and reached out to her.\nShe accepted my project and came up with a tattoo that is beyond perfect and simply stunning!\nNot only did she create the perfect tattoo, she gave me a much needed mental break from my grief. Today we chatted like we were old friends.\nWe have children about the same age, and I just thoroughly enjoyed her conversation.\nWe cried about April, we laughed about life, and we enjoyed each other’s company.\nToday kind of felt like a spa day… a girls day out.\nI got a much needed break and felt like I was hanging out with one of my best friends- and I walked out with a stunning piece of art in tribute of April’s life.", "domain": "design"}

I wanted to be able to use all three\nserial ports on the AT91SAM7S256-EK, but they only bring out two of the\nthree to connectors. The two they bring out to connectors are\nUART0 and the DEBUG serial port. The Debug port is the one that\nis used by SAM-BA to load code into the Flash of an unprogrammed\npart. I really wanted all three ports so I decided to add it to\nthe Debug port connector. Here is how I did it. Please read all instructions carefully before starting the work. This will require blind drilling a via which can be difficult. Please evaluate your skills before starting.\nLooking at the schematic I saw that there are two RS-232 converter\nchips to work with the two ports. Each chip has two drivers and\ntwo receivers. The chip supporting UART0 uses one pair for serial\ndata and another pair for the handshake lines. The DEBUG serial\nport has an unused driver and receiver since there are no handshake\nsignals. It seemed a simple matter to wire the unused pair to the\nUART1 serial data pins and bring the RS-232 side to unused pins on the\nDEBUG serial port connector.\nHere is the component side of the board after the modifications.\nThe connections to the RS-232 transceiver chip are on the top side of\nthe board and the connections to the AT91SAM7S256 and the DEBUG serial\nport connector are on the bottom.\nFigure 1 - Component Side Full Board\nThe top side wires are shown in more detail here. Two go to the\nDEBUG serial port connector and two go to the expander connector which\nconnects to the AT91SAM7S256 MCU.\nFigure 2 - Component Side Wires\nThe unused sections of the transceiver chip have their inputs grounded,\nso the grounds have to be cut. One is at pin 9 on IC2 and can be\ncut with a knife, but the other is pin 12 which connects to a via\nthat must be drilled out. Worse the via is under the chip so it\nhas to be done without drilling through the chip. This is not too\nhard to do if you have a small drill press, but otherwise will take\nsome care to do by hand. Note that the schematic counts the pins\non IC1 and IC2 as 18 pin chips. I assume they did this to be able\nto use some chip that has a compatible pinout, but in an 18 pin\npackage. So since these chips have 16 pins, count the first pin\non the chip as pin 2.\nHere is what the back side of the board looks like with the wires and\nthe drilled via. The drilled via is roughly centered left-right\nand is about a quarter way down from the top.\nFigure 3 - Back Side Wires and Drilled Via\nHere is a closeup of the drilled via. I used an 0.032\" drill\nafter finding out that an 0.018\" drill was not large enough. Both\ndrills were very hard to center over the via since this requires a\nsteady hand and a good eye. I also had a drill press with a dial\ngauge mounted so I could accurately measure the depth. The PCB is\n0.062\" with another 0.010\" or so clearance below the IC on the other\nside. If you don't have a drill press you can carefully measure\n0.070\" up from the tip of your drill and wrap a piece of masking\ntape. Then drill down until the tape is touching the board.\nAs you can see below, the hole is a bit hard to get centered, I had to\ndrill it three times before it was disconnected fully. The only\ntrace in the area is the IC pad on the top side. So you can use a\nlarger drill, say 0.050\", but be careful not to drill the chip or the\nchip lead on the other side of the board. You can check to make\nsure you have disconnected the trace from the ground plane by checking\nwith an ohm meter.\nFigure 4 - Drilled Via Closeup\nYou have to cut the trace between ground and pin 9. That can be\ndone on the top side with a sharp knife or a razor blade. I used\nthe drill press since it was handy. You do not need to drill\nthrough the board for this one, so I just drilled enough to cut the\ntrace. This trace also grounds another part, so be careful to cut\nit just next to the pad for pin 9.

In 1978 the consultants recommended that Dallas take the scattered major arts institutions from across the city and move them all together. The northeast end of downtown presented itself as the best location for this new conglomerate of institutions. Soon a lively mix of cultural and commercial destinations popped up, effortlessly blending contemporary and historic architecture.\nIn 1984 the Dallas Museum of Art, designed by Edward Larabee Barnes, opened as the first institution in the newly made District. Through the next 20 years, the development of the Arts District continued with the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center, designed by Pritzker Prize winning architect I.M. Pei (1989); the Crow Collection of Asian Art in the existing Trammell Crow Center (1998); the Nasher Sculpture Center, designed by Pritzker Prize winning architect Renzo Piano (2003) and the Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts, recently opening a new addition designed by Brad Cloepfil (2008). The relocation of the major art institutions was complete In 2009, with the opening of the AT&T Performing Arts Center. With the openings of Dallas City Performance Hall, Klyde Warren Park and The Perot Museum of Nature and Science in 2012, the District continues to meet its goals of being a hive for artistic and educational life by encouraging each visitor to explore their creative side.\nAt the time of the publishing of the Sasaki Plan in 1982, the nascent Arts District Consortium positing the following objective: to create an arts district “to reflect a multinational atmosphere, and contain mixed uses—arts facilities, office, retail and residential spaces, and cultural events—and feature Flora Street as a physical and visual link within the district.”\nBy most measures, the Dallas Arts District has surpassed all expectations: emerging as perhaps the most pre-eminent arts district in the nation, featuring, in one place, over 15 cultural institutions of local, national and international significance. Flora Street has indeed become the physical and visual link between these institutions lining both sides of the Street, beginning at the Dallas Museum of Art and terminating at One Arts, a mixed-use complex that features housing, office and retail uses as envisioned in the Sasaki Plan.\nAfter 35 years of growth, the Dallas Arts District has nearly reached full build-out: only a few parcels remain for development, and nearly all of the City’s cherished cultural facilities have found their way to District. The most recent additions to Dallas’s cultural scene, such as the Perot Museum, have had to find a home at the periphery of the original district boundaries. Meanwhile, the standards established in 1982 have largely fulfilled their original intent to create a unified district, with infrastructure standards that set a high bar for the quality of Flora Street as the focus for the Arts. After nearly 35 years, mixed-uses are now finding a home in the Arts District, with hundreds of residential units built and in more in the pipeline and destination restaurants finding themselves on Flora Street.\nSeveral sections of the Sasaki Plan need to be updated. District-Wide Concepts and the Urban Design Plan sections of the Sasaki will be replaced with a new vision for the district in the 21st Century. The former recommendations for Food Service, Retail and Arts Program will not be replaced in the new plan: The Dallas Arts District now actively manages arts programming in the District and advocates for retail and food uses without the need for specific plan recommendations. The changing nature of Dallas, including Klyde Warren Park and uptown and downtown housing development has eliminated the need for such specific use recommendations, nor were such plan recommendations effective in the past. As the Dallas Arts District has matured as an organization, certain parts of the Sasaki plan are no longer required.\nSeveral elements of the Design/Development Guidelines have simply outlived their original intent, while others have not stood the test of time. The standards for trees and paving on Flora Street, for example, have proven to be problematic for maintenance, universal access and outdoor retail uses. As a result, most of the projects approved in the last decade have requested, and been granted, changes to both of these standards. Other development standards from 1982, such as the recommended street lighting, benches and street paving specify outdated technologies and need to be updated with current standards. The street lighting, for example, needs to be converted to LED fixtures and the thin stone pavers at street crossings are a regular maintenance problem for Public Works.\nThe regulation of buildings heights, particularly the regulation on Flora Street, has been implemented and has resulted in a pleasant low-scale feeling that should be preserved. Likewise requirements for building transparency of the ground floor have been implemented with good results on the street. These regulations will be preserved in the new plan.\nPerhaps the most problematic element of the Sasaki Plan is related not to the plan recommendations themselves, but to the process that was adopted to regulate and enforce the plan provisions. The current procedure for review of projects within the Dallas Arts District is identified in the Planned Development (PD) regulations that call for Development Plan review for all Development within the Dallas Arts District. This section will be replaced with a modified version of the City’s Urban Design Peer Review Panel process with members of the Dallas Arts District added to the panel for all projects within the boundaries of the Dallas Arts District Planned Development boundaries. The purpose of this modification is to engage earlier and more fully in peer review of all projects before they need building permit approval. It is expected that such a peer review process will streamline the building permit approval time period and avoid the frequent use of the special exception process through the Board of Adjustment. Nearly every project in the past decade has had to resort to this time consuming process in order to seek exception from the outdated regulations in the Sasaki Plan.\nThese are the recommendations from the Sasaki Plan to maintain:\nVerdant Pedestrian Landscapes\nA hierarchy of roads\nThere are 5 notable improvement areas for the new plan:\nArts District Development Patterns\nArts District Infrastructure\nThe guiding plan for Downtown since 2011. Authored as a public-private partnership between Downtown Dallas, Inc. (DDI), the City of Dallas, private interests and the community, it has established a collective vision and implementation strategy for Downtown:\nDowntown Dallas is a complete urban center composed of distinct yet interconnected districts linked by an accessible transit network, each offering a unique and diverse combination of places to live, refreshing open spaces, bustling street activity, successful business and retail, and dynamic urban experiences for residents, workers and visitors alike.\nLearn more by reviewing Downtown 360: Dallas' City Plan", "domain": "design"}

The American manicure is quickly becoming beloved by many! This style will do the trick for those who want to capture the distinct and modern essence of classic Americana. With its simple yet stylish look, you’re sure to find a variation of this trend that fits your desired aesthetic. And if you’re starting from scratch or need some pointers along the way, let us provide tips and tricks on achieving this beautiful manicure finesse. So get ready – it’s time to start guiding your nails through the world of fashion with an all-American spin!\nHow to get the perfect American manicure\n- Begin by trimming and filing your nails with an emery board or nail file. Start at the corners and work toward the center. File in one direction only to prevent any splitting of the nail.\n- Apply a thin layer of cuticle oil around your nails, concentrating on any dry spots. Cuticle oil helps keep your nails healthy, so apply it regularly!\n- Soak your hands in warm water for 5-10 minutes to soften the cuticles and make them easier to push back (or use a cuticle softener).\n- Push back the cuticles with a wooden orange stick or small brush, being careful not to tear them as this can cause infection.\n- Apply a base coat of polish to protect your nails, and allow it to dry completely before applying the color/design of your choice.\n- Seal the manicure with a clear topcoat with a UV blocker, and use quick-dry drops if you’re short on time.\n- Finish off with cuticle oil or cream around the edges of each nail for extra nourishment! You can also apply some oil underneath the tips of your nails for added hydration and protection from breakage.\n- Enjoy your perfect American Manicure! With proper care, it should last about two weeks before needing to be redone. After that, regularly use cuticle oil or cream to keep them looking their best, and apply a top coat after each shower.\nHopefully, this step-by-step guide has helped you get the perfect American Manicure. Each step is important for achieving beautiful results, from filing and trimming your nails to applying the base coat and color of your choice. And remember, remember to hydrate your hands with cuticle oil daily and apply a UV-blocking topcoat for added protection! With these tips in mind, you should have no problem getting that gorgeous manicure look every time.\nThe battle of the manicures: French vs. American\nThe French manicure and American manicure are two of the most popular styles of nail art. Both looks have become iconic, with each possessing its own unique qualities. So which style is better for you? Let’s take a look at the differences between these two classic looks.\nWhen it comes to French manicures, they typically feature an opaque white tip that stands out against the natural background color of your fingernail. The French version usually consists of two colors: a light pink and an ivory or white tip. This timeless look is often seen on celebrities and has been around for decades – making it one of the most recognizable nails in fashion today!\nMeanwhile, American manicures have recently gained immense popularity. They provide a trendy yet sophisticated look that can be customized to suit individual tastes and preferences. A bolder shade of color usually characterizes these manicures on the tips, such as a bright red or navy blue, with the remaining nail left neutral or in the same color range.\nWhen it comes to maintenance, French manicures typically require less upkeep than American ones. The French tip is usually applied with an acrylic powder, which helps keep your nails looking fresh and pristine for weeks. On the other hand, more intricate American manicures may require frequent touch-ups due to their bold colors and shapes.\nIt all comes down to personal preference and what works best for your lifestyle. French manicures are the way to go if you’re looking for a classic look that requires minimal upkeep. But American manicures could be the perfect option if you want to make a statement with bolder hues!\nNo matter what style you choose, both French and American manicures can help give your nails a stylish and fashionable look. So why not try them both and see which one is right for you? The perfect manicure is out there – all you need to do is find it!", "domain": "design"}

Each range’s targets were placed in the same configuration as in the past, with 80 sets at each location.\nThe new systems are OpticScore targets, which are scored optically by internal LED lights rather than acoustically like the prior target systems that relied on microphones to capture the sound of the pellet as it penetrated through a paper roll. In fact, there are no paper rolls on the new target system, meaning less maintenance between firings.\nOnce a pellet is fired at the target, the target determines the location and records the score. The shot pellet is then captured by a metal backstop and collects behind the target in an environmentally-safe chamber.\nAlong with the advanced scoring technology within, the targets have a much cleaner appearance – positioned on a single leg stand and powered by a quiet motor to operate the lift. The targets themselves, which were previously encased in a metal frame, are now surrounded by a magnetized plastic face to give a sleek, uniformed look and profound security.\nThe monitors at each firing point are similar in function to the previous system, but are closer in appearance to the robust monitors currently installed at CMP’s Talladega Marksmanship Park in Alabama and at the renovated Petrarca Range at Camp Perry in Ohio. Button functions and an LED lighted screen allow ease of use, even for individuals who may not feel technologically-savvy.\nBesides new targets installed at each stationary location, the CMP’s mobile range will convert to the new target systems as well and will also increase to a 100-target set. The mobile range is scheduled for its debut in January.\nThe NCAA Championships in March will serve as the last match fired on the current MegaLink targets. All mobile activities after will be conducted on the new systems.\nCome see the new targets for yourself! The Gary Anderson Invitational in December, fired simultaneously at both the Alabama and Ohio locations, will be the first match conducted on the target systems. Marksmanship Nights, open to the public, have also resumed and are open to curious individuals of all ages and experience levels.", "domain": "design"}

They don’t want super expensive or luxurious jewelry. What they really want is actually something behind each piece of jewelry. A special memory that reminds them of the sweet days, or the mystery that they feel from the special Egyptian jewelry. AndreaM jewelry, themed by memory, mystery, and forever, may make your dream come true.\n1 Mysterious Egyptian bangles:\nThe Egyptians were known to be very creative in designs, unmatched in their brilliance. The jewelry of ancient Egypt has fascinated the world for centuries. Not only are they beautiful and attractive in themselves, but they can also evoke some kind of religious feeling and mystery. It is because the Egyptians had their own religion, and Egyptian stuff has always been endowed with a bit of magic and mystery. The princess crown style bangles make women more royal, and elegant.\n2 Elegant pearl rings:\nPearl jewelry is all the rage and one type of them is pearl rings. Pearl rings come in different colors and shapes as the pearls themselves are different in colors and shapes. Each pearl has its own special personality and its own story. There are no two pearl rings which are exactly alike. Thus, a pearl ring can offer you natural beauty and uniqueness. This ring has remarkable luster and is made of platinum plating, decorated with glittering CZ and high quality pearl.\n3 Delicate butterfly brooches:\nLike any other jewelry, brooches are mainly for the purpose of fashion and aesthetics. Different from other jewelries, brooches are no longer regarded as accessories for old ladies but for everyone. Both old and young ladies are happy to wear brooches to highlight a specific part of the body. You can wear it near to the shoulder, or waist bands. Or as a modern style, a brooch is often used as an accessory pinned to the lapel of a coat. In this way, it draws others’ attention to some part of the body, like a long neck, the waist, or the hips. Brooches also have practical use. For example, if you have bought a loose jacket and are trying to make it fit you better, a brooch can be used to have the slack pleated together and get fastened, giving an aesthetic feeling in the meantime.\n4 Ornate Victorian bracelets:\nUnlike that of any other time period, Victorian jewelry is inimitable for its classically ornate and delicately detailed design. When we mention Victorian jewelry, we have to say something about the Queen Victorian who ruled England from 1837 to 1901. As she has a romantic disposition, the jewelry during her reign is endowed with sentimental motifs like hearts, flowers, and birds. The Victorian jewelry is characterized by using such techniques as piercing, and filigree, which can be found in most of the Victorian jewelry like this bracelet for it has a delicate design and charming beauty.\n5 Vintage Egyptian teardrop earrings:\nNot only is Egyptian jewelry not confined to be worn by one gender, but also they have the ability to meld with whatever you wear. You can wear modern pants suits paired with Egyptian jewelry, which does not look weird but makes you more fashionable instead. This is the distinctive charm of Egyptian jewelry. For over 5000 years Egyptian arts have fascinated lots of people generation after generation, with its unparalleled beauty, and mystery. Like this teardrop earring, glittering gold-plated chain loop with medium brown teardrop cubic zirconia produces a sense of mystery, and nobility.\n6 Personalized birthstone charms:\nSome wear gemstones just for fashion, while some wear them for a sense of identity. Birthstones represent your birth month which dates back far in history when they were believed to bestow the wearers with power, or good luck. Today, they are more worn as a self statement or fashion statement. Personalized birthstone charms are actually good gift options, as they may give your loved person a feeling that this gift is just meant for him or her. They may feel you are really concerned about them. Birthstones can be added to your rings, earrings, or bracelets based on your preference.", "domain": "design"}

This is a good choice if you want to have more greenery, herbs or flower branches in your bouquet than flowers.\nThe origin of the Nosegay is far removed from weddings; this small, rounded bunch of herbs and flowers was used to help women cope with the unpleasant rural odors of the Medieval period. The Nosegay was worn on the dress or hat to freshen the air around the wearer and also set in vases around the home to refresh the atmosphere.\nBy the era of Queen Victoria, the Nosegay was elevated to fashion statement status, the herbs and flowers were mounted in a small, cone-shaped holder called a “tussie-mussie” usually made of glass or metal. During this time when the language of flowers was used to send a message these innocent looking objects played a major role in romantic intrigue.\nToday, the this style bridal bouquet is enjoyed renewed popularity with brides; embellished bridal bouquets in this style are adorned with organza ribbons and exotic tropical floral arrangements. The Nosegay bridal bouquet style is charming and elegant ideal for any wedding theme.", "domain": "design"}

(2021) Efficient optimization methodology for laser powder bed fusion parameters to manufacture dense and mechanically sound parts validated on AlSi12 alloy. Materials & Design, Volume 199, 109433. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.matdes.2020.109433\nAbstract : The main drawback of laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF), commonly called selective laser melting (SLM) is the high porosity which may lead to an early failure of the parts. To minimize it, the L-PBF parameters need to be optimized focusing on the laser power, scanning speed and hatching space. However, no standard guideline exists. In this study, an efficient and cost-effective methodology is developed and validated on AlSi12. This innovative methodology brings together single scan tracks (SST), macroscopic properties analysis and design of experiments (DOE). It requires three batches of SST, cubes and tensile samples. The DOE significantly decreases the manufacturing and characterization costs. 9 SST are sufficient to identify a process window that is 85% similar to the one obtained from a full factorial design with 105 SST. This process window reliably leads to high densities and better mechanical properties in comparison to the state-of-the-art properties reported in the literature for L-PBF AlSi12. In conclusion, a methodology using only 9 SST, 18 cubes and 12 tensile tests has been validated on AlSi12. It is further envisioned to optimize the L-PBF parameters of any existing or new alloy leading potentially towards better mechanical properties than the state-of-the-art in the literature.\nKeywords : Laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF), Selective laser melting (SLM), Parameters optimization, Methodology, Design of experiments (DOE), Aluminum alloy", "domain": "design"}

Without alt text, screen reader users just hear “image.” Some images automatically include alt text, so it’s a good idea to check that the alt text is what you want.\nAdd or edit alt text\n- Select the image or logo.\n- Go to More editing options Add alt text.\n- Enter alt text in the description field.\nUse high-color contrast\nHigh color contrast makes text and images easier to read and comprehend. Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 recommend a minimum ratio of 4.5:1 for large text and 7:1 for other text and images. For example, avoid light gray text on a white background.\nYou can use Chrome DevTools to review suggestions for increasing color contrast and apply them to your site.\nUse informative link text\nScreen readers can scan for links, so informative link text is helpful. It’s best to use the title of the page as the linked text. For example, if you’re linking to your profile page, the link text should say “my profile,” not “click here” or the full URL.\nCheck text size and alignment\nTo make your site easy to read, use large, left-aligned text when possible. Justified text is more difficult to read because of extra space between the words.\nUse text to support formatting\nIt’s best not to rely on visual formatting alone to communicate meaning. Screen readers might not announce formatting changes, such as boldface or highlighting. For example, to mark an important section of text, add the word “Important.”\nUse numbered and bulleted lists\nGoogle Docs and Google Slides automatically detect and format some lists for accessibility. For example, if you start a new line in your document by typing the number 1 followed by a period, the new line automatically becomes the first item in a numbered list.

The busier we get the more we look for that quiet stillness that we desperately need to balance ourselves. Meditation room ideas are becoming more popular every day now that people realize the importance of having a space in their home where they can stop, take a breath and re-connect with their true selves.\nBefore we get into some meditation room ideas you must choose an area of your home, preferably an entire room, but it can be anywhere, including the bath tub. This space will feel right to you, because it has great energy and give you a feeling of comfort. Have you found it? Great, let’s prep your new sacred space.\nPrepare Your Room\nAfter you have chosen your space that you feel resonates some good energy, you can proceed with preparing your space.\n- Empty your space – Take out all unnecessary clutter out of your new-found space and find a new spot in your home for it.\n- Clean your space – Time for some ‘spring’ cleaning. Wash the walls, dust the cobwebs on the ceiling and in the corners, clean the windows and screen, sweep and mop the floor .\nChoose Your Style\nThere are many examples here, but it is up to you to choose your own style. You must choose something that resonates with you, and something that can bring out the best in you and shows your own personality. These are just examples, take what you need and leave the rest.\nWhat About the Elements?\nHave you thought of bringing in the elements? I’m talking about earth, water, air and fire. Honor them, connect with them. Without these elements we wouldn’t exist. Bless them and thank them, or just make them present in your new meditation room. Here are some ideas of incorporating the elements:\n- Earth – Bring in beautiful live plants. It refreshes any room to bring plant life into it. Think trees, shrubs, flowers, etc.\n- Water – I like the idea of having a fountain in the room, even a small desk fountain. The sound is an added relaxation bonus. If the sound of running water makes you want to run to the bathroom, another idea is bringing in a copper or porcelain bowl and fill with fresh water and sprinkle flower petals on top.\n- Air – It would be nice to have a small fan on in the room to get the air flowing. Stagnant air is stagnant energy. Open a window to bring in fresh air, and hang a bamboo chime by it for added comfort.\n- Fire – This element brings the room its wonderful ambiance so use scented or unscented candles, incense, or try a Himalayan salt or quartz lamp.\nMake Yourself Comfortable\nHave you made your new meditation room your own? Great news, I’m so happy you’ve started on a path of balance, quiet, stillness, and healing.\nDo you feel comfortable with your own meditations? If not, there are plenty of guided meditations on YouTube that can help you along while you make this journey to healing your inner-self.", "domain": "design"}

I was a bit bummed that the original designer couldn't help me but as soon as I checked out Victoria's Instagram I was so excited to get in contact with her. We chatted on the phone and right off the bat, I had such a good feeling about her. I needed her assistance in designing a logo, t-shirt designs, business cards... basically the works for my new company. I shared all my ideas with her and what she created for us was beyond my expectations. She was able to bring my ideas to life even better than I had pictured in my head! She provided me with options for each of my ideas and I picked my favourite. I had a hard time picking which designs I wanted to take to print because they were all so good. I really appreciated her honestly and how she communicated with me so openly. She truly had my best interest at heart. She is super professional, easy to talk to, efficient and is very good at what she does. Her prices for designing are very reasonable and she lets you know when she will have the designs to you and checks in with you to make sure she's on the right track. I don't think I've ever been so excited to get an email because I know she's going to have some awesome designs for me to review! Victoria is officially my company's graphic designer. I will continue to go to her for all my designs and I will happily refer her to anyone looking for a graphic designer! Launching a new company is not an easy process but she made the design part such a positive experience. Thank you Victoria!!\n- Jackie Kawaauhau, Aloha Kai Apparel\nI couldn't be happier with Victoria!! She turned my vision into a website and gave me everything I wanted.

As I was doing my research I came across Victoria's beautiful work on Style Me Pretty from previous chic baby shower she designed for earlier in the year. I reached out right away to see if she could create a few custom pieces for my baby shower which included advice cards, storybook themed place cards and other creative custom signage for the shower. Victoria was quick to reply and so collaborative, creative and knowledgeable in all her suggestions. The guests and myself were so pleased and impressed with the final results and how the stationery tied the baby shower's theme together beautifully. I look so forward to working with Victoria on future projects as she was very professional, a creative and unique designer, and was such a joy to work with!\n- Kristine King, Kristine King Events\nI have had the privilege of working with Victoria on multiple projects.

Being BLUETTI’s most powerful solar generator it has ever made, the AC500, along with the companion battery pack B300S, has got everything ready for home emergencies or outdoor activities.\nRest assured in the event of a blackout\nNothing is more frustrating than experiencing a sudden blackout on summer days. With the 24/7 UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) function, the AC500 can automatically detect the power failure and take over 99% of household needs in just 20 milliseconds, including CPAP, fridge, microwave oven, washing machine, or even the garage heater. AC500 is designed to cover essential appliances during power outages.\nPower Monster doesn’t correlate with mammoth\nThe capacity of AC500 can be expanded by connecting B300S or B300 external battery packs to a maximum of 18,432Wh. In addition, the modular design significantly shrinks the overall size and unibody weight, while increasing the flexibility to carry each module individually instead of everything at once.\nGet prepared wherever power is in need\nNo need to rely on the utility grid, no more worry about power failure. AC500 + B300S combo can be charged at home with wall outlets, in the car with a cigarette lighter port, or even in the wild with merely prime sunshine. A perfect solution to save electricity bills while always keeping critical devices powered and ready to go.\nBLUETTI and eco-friendly energy\nBLUETTI is dedicated to building a future with eco-friendly energy. AC300, the first modular power station introduced by BLUETTI, has proven to be a triumph since its debut. Now AC500 is a fully upgraded version with various features. With a 5,000W pure sine inverter (10,000W surge), it runs the high-power devices without any hassle. In addition, the intuitive BLUETTI App directly monitors and controls AC500 at any time.\nAntique gasoline generators, which produce toxic fumes pollution, and unbearable noise and consume non-renewable petroleum resources, are a thing of the past. This AC500 is definitely a powerful beast of the future, kickstarting a new era of go-solar.\nWith over 10 years of industry experience, BLUETTI has tried to stay true to a sustainable future through green energy storage solutions for both indoor and outdoor use while delivering an exceptional eco-friendly experience for everyone and the world. BLUETTI is making its presence in 70+ countries and is trusted by millions of customers across the globe.

Whatever you call it.\n- Some wood\nI use a 19L pail for my feeder, but you can use any size you like.\nI have a cunning technique for matching the pail to the tray. You might want to write this down. OK, here goes. When you’re in the hardware store pick the size of pail you need. Then carry it over to the gardening section and find a tray that is 4 inches (ish) wider than the base of the pail. Pretty good eh? Works everytime.\nDo you need a lid? Well, I use a lid for my turkeys, but not for my chickens. The chickens use it as a roost and the lid gets covered in poop. If the thought of chicken poop on top of your feeder excites you go for it.\nAs I mentioned above, the tray needs to be approximately 4 inches wider than the bottom of the pail. The tray needs to be at least 2 inches deep so the feed doesn’t come over the side. The one I got is 2¾” deep.\nYour homemade poultry feeder needs a base. We are going to screw from the inside of the pail, through the tray and into the wood. I am using two 12″ pieces of 2″x 4″ for this feeder.\nMaking The Holes\nNext, I made holes in the side of the pail as close to the bottom as possible. I used a 1⅜” (35mm) hole saw drill bit. You could use a utility knife or heat up an old knife, but I don’t recommend this technique. The hole saw is by far the safest method. Remember, it’s hard to pick-up a chicken without fingers.\nYou don’t want to make the holes to big. I did that on my last feeder and the birds took full advantage of the free-flowing feed, 24 hours later it was empty and the feed was all over the floor of the coop.\nI marked the centres of the holes 4″ apart with a black marker. The bottom of the hole needs to be as close to the bottom of the inside of the pail as possible.\nPutting Your Homemade Poultry Feeder Together\nPut your two pieces of wood together and place the tray on top. Then place the pail on top of the tray making sure everything is centred.\nPut some screws through the base of the pail, through the tray and into the wood.\nAll you need to do is give it a wash, fill it with feed and put it in front of your birds.", "domain": "design"}

We believe that a landscape should not only be beautiful, but useful as well. Not only should it be a place for relaxation, recreation, and contemplative reflection, it must additionally solve everyday problems. An effective landscape must work for its users. This means critically addressing every square foot to achieve the greatest aesthetic and utilitarian effect possible. Of course, the solution will be different for each project. We study your lifestyle and unique needs to determine the best use of your outdoor space. As part of the process, we respect and celebrate your unique desires, existing architecture, and the natural features of the site and its surroundings to achieve a harmonious space that not only enhances your life but also maximizes your property value.\nGolden Gate Palms offers a full array of design services ranging from economical, one hour consultation site visits, limited ongoing design assistance, to fully executed site plans and corresponding landscape installation. Since 1985 at the tender age of just 16, chief designer Gary Gragg has designed and installed nearly every conceivable style of landscape imaginable. However, it is in the realm of subtropical garden design that sets Gary apart from all others. Gary has an intimate understanding of subtropical design style and the complexities of the San Francisco Bay Area climate. Thoroughly understanding and utilizing to best advantage this ultra complex macroclimate and the many unique microclimates of each individual site is critical to create a successful subtropical garden. No one can do this better than the Golden Gate Palms team.\nGrowing up, Gary’s obsession for plants and the living environment set him apart from his peers, but also planted the seed for a successful career. Today, Gary has achieved a dream that is elusive for most people: he loves what he does.\nAfter working through college creating gardens throughout San Diego County, Gary founded Exotic Flora Landscape & Nursery, Inc. in 1991. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, Gary designed and installed hundreds of residential gardens as well as dozens of notable commercial projects, including seven major exhibits for the Oakland Zoo.\nIn 2001, Gary founded Golden Gate Palms Nursery Inc. which has grown to become the largest and most diverse collection of palms and exotic plant material available for sale in the San Francisco Bay Area. Many of the large palms that grace public avenues and large buildings throughout the region have been grown and supplied by Gary’s firm.\nIn 2005, Gary set his sights further and decided he wanted to create a garden television show to bring his love and enthusiasm for plants to the world. In the Spring of 2006, he created a major exhibit for the San Francisco Flower and Garden Show. His exhibit, “Livin’ Cheap in Baja” won the prestigious “Best in Show” award and caught the eye of HGTV. HGTV's Superscapes was born.\nHGTV’s Superscapes features Gary as host, designer, and builder. Two seasons were shot with a total of 26 episodes. Also in 2008, after a decade of horticultural experimentation, Gary patented a new plant variety called Agave attenuata ‘Kara’s Stripes’, which he named after his wife. He then created another Agave attenuata variety that is pure gold which he named after is Daughter Raea, \"Raea's Gold.\" To complete the trifecta, Gary has found a random seedling avocado variety that creates monstrous sized fruit right here in the Bay Area and has cloned this variety and named it \"The Big Mup\" after his second daughter Arianna \"Muppy\" Gragg.\nIn 2011, Gary purchased a Citrus Ranch in Winters, CA to utilize as a nearby hot climate growing ground for the Palm Nursery.

It depicts Hektor and Achilles in action and incorporates the lovely diagonal composition that you may remember from last term was a favoured technique of the Greek sculptors and artists. Note also the rippling muscles (!) of the heroes and their kilt-like attire together with the plumed helmets, all of which we have read about recently.\nThe grapes are a nod to the wine which the heroes frequently drink and offer to the gods, and are also reminiscent of Homer’s epithet for the sea as ‘wine-dark’.\nBarbarann had the excellent idea of including the words ‘Classics Club’ in Greek and Latin. The Greek version means ‘Greek club’ and the word for Classics in Latin should strictly also be ‘Greek’ (Graecus) but I thought we should give the Romans their due, hence ‘Romanus’. The Greek word for club also means ‘companionship’ and the Latin one is literally ‘a circle or group for conversation’. I think both of these descriptions fit our group rather well. I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you all for your companionship during these difficult times and for being part of such a lovely circle.\nA huge thank you and congratulations to Barbarann for creating such a lively and appropriate image - perfect for bringing us all cheer and inspiration!", "domain": "design"}

This is frequently created using industry-standard desktop publishing programs such as Adobe Creative Suite or Quark Xpress. One of the biggest issues in the processing of electronic files by Thompson Print & Mailing Solutions is that they are all too often not print-ready. To help avoid electronic files that can’t be processed, please follow the checklist below:\n1. INCLUDE BASIC FILE INFORMATION\nWhen submitting the file, include the name and version number of the program used to create the artwork (ex: Adobe Creative Suite 6, or Quark Xpress 5.0). Include the file name, finished size, and page count including the cover. All of these are basic checks our prepress department will use to make sure we are working with the correct file. Having this information upfront saves time by answering the most basic questions.\n2. INCLUDE FONTS\nInclude all the fonts that are used in the piece. Thompson will not be able to see or use your selected fonts if they are not included in the file. Most desktop publishing programs have an option to include or embed fonts when you create a PDF of your file; this is our preferred file format. In some graphics programs, text can be converted to outlines or curves. Doing so ensures that your text remains intact even if we don’t have your font on file. Text is no longer editable once this is done, so make sure you’ve checked your spelling.\n3. INCLUDE IMAGES\nInclude linked images on your printed piece. Linked images are the images for a piece that must be linked to the area of the project and saved with that project. We are not able to see images that are not linked.\n4. OBSERVE SAFE AREA, TRIM, & BLEED\nThe trim size should be the same as the final printed size. Bleeds are used if you need your printed piece to have color to the edge of the page. Bleeds should be exactly 1/8″ over the final finished size. Extend any background colors or design elements all the way to the bleed edge, 1/8″ outside the trim line. To be at full bleed, the design must extend to the edge of this bleed area. This ensures that an unwanted white border is not shown after the document is cut.\nTo avoid having text or images cut off during trimming, please keep all important information within the safe area. This is generally 1/8” inside the trim line.\n5. DIAGRAM SHOWING BLEED, TRIM, AND SAFE AREA.\nWhen your document has a fold, honor a safe area on either side of the fold line as well. This will keep your important information from falling into the fold when the piece is finished.\n6. INCLUDE NAMES OF SPOT COLORS\nInclude all unique colors (PMS Colors), and the spot color names and numbers. Include those numbers in an email or in the file.\n7. SAVE FILES IN CMYK FORMAT\nArtwork is frequently created in RGB so that you can view it on your computer monitor. CMYK is the full-color process system that we use to create the high-quality, vibrant colors of offset printing. If your software allows color profiles, use “CMYK: Web Coated (SWOP) v2” to view the most accurate representation of your final printed colors.\n8. CREATE HIGH-RESOLUTION ART\nMake sure your project is saved at 300 dpi. Many times pictures that you took off the Internet or pictures that you have scanned will not be 300 dpi. 300 dpi is the minimum image resolution that is recommended to deliver clear and vibrant pictures. Pictures that are less than 300 dpi will be fuzzy and unclear.\nIMAGES BELOW 300 DPI MAY NOT REPRODUCE WELL.\nIt is best to use vector graphics when possible as opposed to raster or bitmap images in your designs. They are able to retain high image quality at any size. Raster images are composed of tiny dots called pixels. Pixels placed close together fool our eyes into seeing a continuous area of color. When you need gradients or photographs, raster images are generally your best option for this reason. However, because they contain a fixed number of dots, a disadvantage of raster images is that when you enlarge a raster image, their ability to fool the eye suffers. There may be more space between the dots and the dots get larger. Raster images should be used in printing as close to 300 DPI (dots per inch) as possible. Lower resolutions may result in “pixelation” or fuzzy images, as seen above.", "domain": "design"}

Allowance. The maximum number of driveway aprons allowed per lot is two. Additional driveway aprons will not be approved unless there is shown to be an absolute necessity for them.\nB. Location. A driveway apron shall not be located in such a place as to interfere with another legal encroachment or create a hazard or nuisance.\n1. Separation. Driveway aprons on the same lot must be separated by a minimum of 30 feet measured from an apron edge to the next apron edge at the right-of-way line.\n2. Proximity to Intersections. Driveway aprons may not be constructed closer than 35 feet measured at the right-of-way line to the intersection of two public rights-of-way, of a lot corner or point of curve return.\n3. Side Lot Line Setback. Driveway aprons may not be constructed less than 10 feet from the side lot line. An exception will be granted by the city for planned unit developments, zero lot line type facilities, four-plex or larger residential buildings, and common driveways. This restriction may be waived for narrow lots 60 feet wide or less.\n4. Angle of Intersection. Driveway aprons should intersect the public right-of-way at a 90-degree angle and in no case may intersect at less than a 60-degree angle.\n5. Fillet Radii. The intersection of a driveway apron and a public road shall be constructed with a minimum fillet radii of six feet. Recommended residential fillet radii is 10 feet. Recommended commercial and industrial fillet radii is 15 feet.\n6. Traffic Considerations. Driveway aprons for business enterprises that serve vehicles, or provide services or entertainment to customers while in vehicles, shall not be constructed so as to cause traffic congestion within the public right-of-way. The driveway beyond the right-of-way must be of sufficient length and width to accommodate the vehicles and be designed to provide for the safe and expeditious handling of traffic as determined by the city.\n1. Residential. The finished surface width of driveway aprons to serve residential or dwelling house lots shall be a minimum of 10 feet and a maximum of 20 feet measured at their narrowest point.\n2. Commercial. The finished surface width of driveway aprons to serve commercial/industrial lots shall be a minimum of 11 feet and a maximum of 30 feet measured at their narrowest point.\n3. Exceptions. The city will grant automatic exceptions to residential and commercial driveway apron widths if all of the following conditions are satisfied:\na. The driveway apron intersects a public thoroughfare classified as rural, local/neighborhood, or minor collector;\nb. The property owner will accept any additional construction or maintenance expense incurred for the installation of culverts, etc.; and\nc. The proposed design assures that vehicles will not be backing onto the public thoroughfare from the driveway apron.\nThe city may grant a width exception if only some of the immediately preceding conditions are satisfied.\nD. Length. Driveway aprons shall extend from the edge of the finished surface of the intersecting public thoroughfare to the edge of the public right-of-way at the lot being served by the driveway. For a new driveway apron intersecting an existing paved public thoroughfare, which has no remaining unimproved right-of-way, the property owner will construct a paved driveway apron at least six feet long on his property.\nE. Drainage. Driveway aprons shall be constructed so that all runoff is directed to the ditch line (and not across the public thoroughfare), and shall not cause erosion of the public right-of-way or deposition of soils onto the public thoroughfare. In the event that a driveway apron increases drainage to the roadway ditch, the city may require that the applicant provide a means of accommodating the additional drainage.\nF. Culverts. Culverts shall be installed when required by the city. Culverts are to be laid to the flow line grade of the existing roadside ditch. Culverts shall extend a minimum of two feet beyond both edges of the slope of the driveway apron or install manufactured end sections where it crosses the ditch line. In areas of major drainage the city may require a steam thaw pipe to be installed in the culvert.\nG. Illumination. Driveway aprons onto public thoroughfares from major commercial and/or industrial establishments require a roadway illumination review by the city. The applicant will be required to install roadway lighting if the city determines that lighting is necessary for the safe and efficient use of the driveway apron. The city, using the latest guidelines established by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials, the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities, and/or city luminaries standards will specify the type, number and location of luminaries to be installed.\nH. Delineation. For driveway aprons that are intended to serve commercial or industrial establishments markers, signs, curbs or other types of barricades shall be installed to clearly delineate and define the entrances and exits and to prevent egress and ingress at points other than the approved locations. All driveway aprons leading to four-plex or larger residential buildings shall be marked with reflective flexible delineators. Delineators may be required at other sites for traffic safety reasons.\nI. Slope. To protect the structural integrity of the public thoroughfare no driveway apron may be constructed with a driveway centerline slope which would cause a standard passenger vehicle to drag bottom.\nJ. Line of Sight. For public safety reasons the city may require the removal of, or prohibit the construction or installation of any structures or landscaping features over three feet high and one foot wide at site level (between three feet and eight feet in elevation) which obscure the line of sight in the triangular area 25 feet on two sides bounded by the public thoroughfare and the driveway apron/driveway.\nK. Snow Storage. The property owner shall make adequate provisions on his or her own lot for the storage of snow plowed off of the driveway apron and fronting right-of-way.

It is premium economy when both seats are used.\nWhen used as business class, the inboard seat is simply flipped over to form a flat surface. The seating unit then becomes a private suite for one passenger, with a seat and a side couch.\nFor sleeping, passengers simply flip the aisle seat over as well, this, together with the side couch, forms a large sleeping surface long enough for passengers to lay flat diagonally across.\nLike a caterpillar turning into a butterfly, the Butterfly seat transforms into a whole different animal when converted to business class.\nEvery passenger gets a private suite with direct aisle access, unlimited elbow room, and twice the amount of space.\nThe addition of soft furnishings on the side couch gives a homey, living room-like ambience to the suite, while the feature lighting in the storage rack, which was initially blocked by the seatback, builds a club-like atmosphere for the cabin.\nThe staggered arrangement of Butterfly's premium economy seats gives passengers the maximum amount of width since passenger's elbows are offset from one another.\nAt 8-abreast on a 777 sized cabin, the seat width is up to 21 inches between armrest, which is as wide as many business class seats in the market.\nOther features include large cocktail trays, seat pockets on the side, as well as adjustable ottoman.\nA large cocktail tray, rack for personal items, as well as generous under-seat storage gives passengers unparalleled convenience. In addition, the side couch is a good place for them to spread their belongings around casually as they work.\nThe extra PTV for the inboard seat can be used as a secondary screen to display flight information while the passenger watches other programmes.\nThe full glory of the seat is revealed when the aisle is also folded over to form one of the largest bed surfaces in the industry. At 42” pitch the bed is 79” long tip-to-tip, and up to a maximum 36” wide at hip areas, giving passenger ample space to toss and turn.\nIn addition, a storage compartment in the middle armrest becomes naturally locked under the bed when the seats transforms to the bed mode, essentially creating a secure locker where passengers can safely store their valuables as they sleep.\nWhether privacy or intimacy, Butterfly gives passengers what they desire. While the business class seats are normally isolated from one another, when passengers want to socialize they may invite guests over on the side couch for a meal together. Alternatively, couples may convert the side couches back into seats so that they can sit close to each other even during takeoff and landing.\nIn premium economy, airlines may choose to activate couches for little children to let them sleep more comfortably, and thus bring tranquility to the people around.\nAt 36\" pitch on the Airbus A320 or 42\" pitch on the A350 cabin, Butterfly's seat density compares very well with industry standards.\nButterfly is a game changer that has potential benefits to a wide range of issues in airline operations that includes fleet assignment, revenue management and aircraft reconfiguration. Airlines are no longer bounded by a fixed cabin configuration, allowing both profitability and customer satisfaction to be maximized at the same time.", "domain": "design"}

(courtesy of Liz Marie's blog)\nBut my personality just requires more color, I have decided I just simply cannot have a room comprised of only whites and creams.\nThe first step of my Living room re-do was to find a new rug. I LOVED my garage sale find rug, but after living with it for a year, it was time for a change, I needed something more neutral, something where I could change the pillows and seasonal decor without having to worry about matching.\nI really like the look of the natural jute rugs, but my adjoining dining room has one and I think two side by side would be too much. I also like big patterns but knew I would grow tired of one, these were contenders...\nLoved the colors but the strips would go vertical in the living room which I wasn't a fan of.\nI am still drawn to chevron even though it is everywhere, but knew I would grow tired of this one.\nVery neutral but needed to step away from \"oriental.\"\nNone screamed \"take me home!\" until I saw this...\nI was instantly attracted to it, it was neutral, it would match my natural jute rug in the dining room. Only problem was it was an 7'6 by 9'6- after living with a 9 by 12 I was afraid it would be too small, and at first it was,\nThe former rug went well under the couch and allowed both nightstands to sit fully on the rug.\nAt this point I had decided it wasn't going to work and that it was going back to the store in the morning but my boyfriend convinced me that I would grow to like it if I waited a bit- the next morning (and with natural light) I realized I did indeed like it, but that the cream end tables had to go. Luckily I am just short of a hoarder and had plenty of options in my garage to choose from. I bought in a nightstand and decided it was perfect.\nIt's slowly coming together. Still looking for a side table for the right side so I can put my other lamp back and trying to decide what to put above the couch, thinking of another gallery wall but smaller in size than the one in my kitchen.\nBut I am happy with the changes so far :)", "domain": "design"}

Our current technology allows us to do custom decorating on just a single garment, without the expense and setup of normal screenprinting. There are several methods that have become popular in the micro-decorating industry, several of which we use in-house.\nSublimation printing is super soft when printed on white shirts. The sublimation inks are semi-transparent, so the ink color will be a combination of the shirt color and the ink color on non-white shirts. If we use this process to go on a dark shirt, we use a special white material to lay down onto the shirt prior to printing the sublimation inks. This will add to the stiffness and weight of the print. Sublimation is very durable, because the inks go from a solid to a gaseous state and embed directly into the garment.\nThis method is great for single color prints where opacity is important. The nature of the vinyl allows for bright, bold colors on top of dark garments. The design is computer cut from a roll and then heat pressed on, the most common application is for numbers and individual names on athletic jerseys. There are several pitfalls to this method, which should be considered when using this option. Due to the vinyl being more rigid and less flexible than the garment it is going on, there may be some bowing if the garment shrinks. The larger the image, the more pronounced this effect can be. Also, the garment must be washed inside out on a gentle cycle to avoid peeling from the garment.\nThis is very similar to the opacity of vinyl and is single color. Rather than cut on a plotter, the image is printed onto a special film from a large laser printer and heat pressed to another sheet that creates an adhesive underbase backer only where the image is. This is then transferred to the garment and is very opaque. This method is more flexible than vinyl because it is thinner and allows for far greater detail. Although the material is called foil, and we can create the design with metallics, it also comes in standard colors. We even stock neon colors! The same care is needed for this method as vinyl, since the foil does not have any elasticity. Laundering should be done with the garment turned inside out on a gentle cycle, and tumble drying should be limited or avoided.\nThis method is very similar to the foil in that it use the same backing adhesive, but we can print a full color image and transfer it to the shirt. We use a method called \"micro-masking\" to add tiny little holes into the design to allow for better washability. This allows liquid to pass through the design areas and adds some elasticity. Care is still required when laundering, inside out and gentle cycle will ensure a longer product life.\nAlthough this technology is wonderful, and it allows for fast customization of garments in many ways, it is in no way a replacement for screen printing. The process is more expensive per shirt than mass produced t-shirts, the color matching will vary slightly from computer screen to printed garment, and the durability of the image on the shirt is somewhat less than a screen-printed garment. The main benefit to digital printing is avoiding the steep setup cost and time involved with screenprinting, and the lightning fast turnaround the process allows.

They are getting married at their family church with a reception to follow at Customs House, so the brief was for something classic and traditional, with a touch of their own personality. After the initial meeting, we invited them over for a quick photo session and captured their silhouettes. The design features a collection of frames, letterpress printed blind, with the central frame laser cut to reveal their silhouettes on blue. Inside, their silhouettes are presented within a radiant blue heart and an invitation to celebrate their marriage. The colour was carefully matched to the fabric of the bridesmaid dresses.\nWe completed the suite by applying the design across gift cards, RSVP cards and matching envelopes. The set (including the envelopes) were printed on Crane Lettra, a 100% cotton stock that is designed specifically for its fibrous texture and its ability to take a wonderful impression.\nEveryone was very happy with the outcome and it seems the recipients were too. We were delighted when we received the following email from our happy clients:\nKell and I have been hearing back from a lot of our guests regarding the invitations and we just wanted to thank you and Jenna so much. Everyone loves them and says how they suit Kell and I down to a tee – which is exactly what we were hoping for!\nIt was a true collaborative effort from start to finish on this project, which we think confirms something that we had long suspected: two heads are better than one.", "domain": "design"}

The shipyard allows players to construct their ship piece by piece. Ships can be as simplistic as a cockpit, a hull, a engine and a gun, or as complex as a player wants. Each module has available subsystems which can be applied to strengthen specific attributes of the ship, and when damaged, those subsystems may be destroyed. While in space flight, interactions between objects are governed by the physics engine. Running into an asteroid at high speed will damage your ship, potentially with catastrophic effects. Using the Kinetic Field Generator (KFG) in game will allow your ship to create an artificial gravity around the ship, both protecting the ship as well as allowing your ship to fly freely through space. This field will also enable the Micro Warp Drive, catapulting your ship far into space in a matter of seconds. Kinetic Void is a procedurally generated adventure, there is no main story line. The decisions and direction is left up to the player. Ally with factions, go to war, build your ship and amass wealth, the choices are yours. Procedural galaxy creation allows as many new experiences as you'd like. When a new game is started, the galaxy map, contents of each sector, and the factions involved will be generated from scratch. You may continue to play this galaxy, or if you'd like to try something different, create a brand new galaxy. Don't worry, your old galaxy will be saved in its current state if you ever wish to return. Choose how many sectors you'd like in your galaxy, as well as how many factions (NPCs) and whether your ships will be Creative or Career mode.Know Your Neighbors. In Kinetic Void the galaxy is a living, breathing thing. Not all factions get along, not all of them hate each other. As factions interact, agreements and treaties will be made and broken. Trade, combat and piracy will affect how the factions see each other based on their own internal standings.Tailor your ship for any role. Make a sleek fighter, a bulky freighter, or a mighty carrier. Your shipu2019s capabilities and appearance are completely up to you. Using Kinetic Voidu2019s ship builder you can make exactly the ship you want. Customize every part of your ship from cockpits, hulls, engines, weapons, and aesthetic modules. Each module has its own statistics that affect the total performance of your ship. Every module can be further customized by adding subsystems (right click on a module to add subsystems). You can even color your ship exactly how you want. Each module has seven color fields allowing you to make amazing ships quickly, and easily. Once your ship is created, save it to your computer, or share it to the Steam Workshop for the world to see. Subscribed ships from the workshop have a random chance of making it into any new galaxy as a faction vessel.Be the scourge of the galaxy, or its savior. A life of combat and struggle not your thing? Become an intergalactic trader and influence the galaxy one deal at a time. Not interested in being a u2018good guyu2019? Take on a life of piracy and plunder your way through sectors, creating havoc wherever you go, then docking at pirate stations for supplies as needed.Intense Active Combat. Target enemy ships and maneuver in real time to align devastating broad-sides or crippling strafing runs. Deploy drones to do your dirty work or simply confuse the enemy into targeting them instead of you while you deal with the enemy vessel. In Kinetic Void, your skills as a pilot are just as important as the components that make up your ship.Take Direct Control Of Your Kinetic Void offers three control modes. In cursor-mode, the player can control the ship through keyboard commands, and pan the camera with the mouse in any direction for quick tactical overview; or Mouse Flight-mode, allowing direct control of the ship through mouse movements. Control your battleshipu2019s turrets from a sweeping orbital camera or slip between asteroids in a dogfight while piloting your heavy-fighter using mouse flight mode. Switch between modes at any time to best suit the situation.\n1 in stock", "domain": "design"}

We looked for a window solution that would transform portable buildings. We found it in ISS Windows.\nThe windows had to look great, be secure, easy to use, eco-friendly � and tick all the building regulations boxes.\nEvery other aspect of modular and portable buildings has changed over the years: the exterior finishes, the roof, the fitting inside � but not the windows! Most people had old, tacky looking windows. Then, to add insult to injury, to make the building more secure � they put cumbersome wire-mesh guards over the windows or big, unsightly roller shutters. These features, as you can imagine, detract from the look of the building.\nDesign for manufacture\nThe product had to be easy to integrate into the manufacturing process, cost-effective, durable, and easy to fit.\nThe ISS Windows integrated shutter system more than met the challenge. It moves windows for modulars into the next century. It looks great, is secure, and has significant green advantages.

Regardless, our knowledge base is available to you and we hereby invite you to put Advance's engineering expertise to work for you.\nDock lifts are designed and built as an integrated torsionally rigid structure. The base frame has a wide stance to provide maximum support. The scissors legs are tied together with torsionally rigid torque tubes. The platform is a box beam design, which adds to the torsional rigidity of the entire structure.\nPit mounted lifts offer the most sizes and options. They are among the most frequently used dock lifts. These lifts are installed in a concrete pit in the ground or a pit in a raised concrete dock. Platform sizes from 6' x 8' to 8' x 12'.\nPortable dock lifts allow you to easily set up and move a lift to suit your operation. The lifts feature a wheeled dolly handle that lets you move the lift wherever you need it with optional transport wheels.\nEnjoy the convenience of a dock lift without the expense of a concrete pit. That's what you get with surface mounted dock lifts. This 5,000 lb. capacity dock lift gives you the lowest lowered height while letting you handle any type of loads moved by manual material handling equipment.", "domain": "design"}

We may often be faced with questions of how to design for diverse audiences, create content that complies with accessibility standards, or promote equity and inclusion in the learning environment, examples, and imagery.\nIn this blog post, I’ll provide some guidance and resources for creating accessible and inclusive learning materials. This is just a high-level overview, so rather than thinking of it as the final word on the topic, consider it a jumping-off point.\nLet’s dig in.\nUnderstanding Accessibility and Inclusivity\nIn the context of instructional design (ID), accessibility means ensuring that content is available and usable by everyone, including people with disabilities. Inclusivity, on the other hand, refers to creating learning experiences that respect and accommodate the diverse needs, preferences, and backgrounds of all learners. This might look like providing multiple ways to access content or incorporating diverse perspectives and examples in the learning materials.\nThere are also legal and ethical implications of creating accessible content. For example, laws like the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act require certain organizations to make their electronic and information technology accessible to people with disabilities.\nAnd I say this a lot when it comes to questions of accessibility or DEI: It’s good for business, of course. Mountains of evidence exist to support the business case for DEI… But it’s also simply the right thing to do, and that should be enough.\nDEI is good for business, of course. But it’s also simply the right thing to do, and that should be enough.\nDesigning for Diverse Audiences\nUniversal Design for Learning (UDL) is an educational framework that emphasizes flexibility and customization to address the diverse needs of learners. For example, UDL encourages providing multiple means of representation, action and expression, and engagement.\nHere are a few tried-and-true strategies for creating content that caters to diverse learning preferences and needs:\nOffer text, audio, and visual versions of content\nProvide adjustable font sizes and color contrast options\nEncourage active learning through interactive elements and activities\nAnd just a quick note from my experience as a web content writer and website designer: Shorter paragraphs are always better. Yes, your paragraphs can be one sentence! The white space makes things so much easier to read.\nCreating Accessible Content\nThere are many common accessibility standards. For example, the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) is a set of guidelines developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) to ensure that web content is accessible to people with disabilities. Section 508 is a US federal law that requires electronic and information technology developed, procured, maintained, or used by the federal government to be accessible to people with disabilities.\nTo create accessible content, you might consider the following:\nProvide alt text for images, which is a brief description that can be read by screen readers\nOffer transcripts or captions for videos, allowing Deaf or hard-of-hearing users to access the information\nUse clear headings and a straightforward structure to help users navigate the content more easily\nPromoting Equity and Inclusion\nCulturally aware teaching and inclusive language is paramount to an inclusive learning experience. There are lots of ways to go about accomplishing this, but rather than trying to get every single one perfectly right in all of your work, I suggest focusing on 2-3 that will make the biggest impact for your specific audience.\nFor example, using plain language is important. Not only is writing so much easier to understand without all the extra fluff, but it’s also easier to translate into other languages, or for multilingual learners to grasp concepts. That’s why, when creating online learning content, I do my best to avoid idioms and sayings that would be completely nonsensical to a non-native English speaker. (And even some native speakers, let’s be honest. The English language is a circus where everything is made up and the points don't matter.)\nNext up for equity and inclusion, consider incorporating diverse perspectives and real-life examples to ensure that all learners feel represented and valued in the learning process. This may involve seeking out and including resources from a variety of cultural backgrounds and experiences.\nIt’s essential for instructional designers to prioritize accessibility and inclusivity when creating learning materials.\nBy understanding the differences between accessibility and inclusivity, designing for diverse audiences, creating accessible content, and promoting equity and inclusion, you can create more effective and engaging learning experiences for all learners.\nRemember to continually reflect on and improve your practices to better serve the diverse needs and preferences of your audience. When you stay informed about best practices in accessibility and inclusivity, you can contribute to a more inclusive and equitable learning environment for everyone. So, keep learning, experimenting on, and refining your instructional design approach to make a positive impact on the lives of your learners.\nCAST (2018).

Have you ever noticed a popular park smack in the middle of a big city, only to find that it is jam-packed with natural landscaping and jam-packed with visitors as well?\nPeople of all ages come to parks filled with natural landscaping as opposed to the more conventional parks, because there is something tranquil about being there. Everyone, including small children, has the need to feel relaxed and peaceful and is drawn to those types of settings.\nFor many of us, natural landscaping offers us an opportunity to forget about stress for a while and reconnect with nature. It is an opportunity for us to be in touch with things that just exist in their own natural and beautiful settings.\nSometimes we all need to feel close to natural landscaping as it brings us closer to ourselves, to our dreams, and to what we remember that we really want out of this thing called life. Natural landscaping has a way of bringing this out in all of us. Natural landscaping offers us a place where a soothing stream flows, native vegetation grows, and shrubs, trees, and plants of all kinds, shapes, and sizes abound. We are just as diverse and in need of growth as our natural landscape environment.\nBeing close to this kind of setting brings about peace, rejuvenation, and regeneration in all of us.\nOutdoor sports are often encouraged and incorporated with natural landscaping. Ice-skating outdoors, roller blading, walking and hiking trails are all located near and around natural landscaping such as streams, ponds, and native plants and shrubs.\nBird watching, photography lessons, picnics, and even weddings take place in settings surrounded by natural landscaping. Natural landscaping provides a natural element that cannot be copied by anyone else. Mother Nature has her own patent on natural landscaping.\nNatural landscapes also provide excellent educational opportunities in a tranquil setting. Children can learn about habitats and ecosystems in a tranquil and soothing environment that is non-threatening and does not feel like your typical schoolroom. Even college students thrive better when they have an authentic natural landscape to study near.\nRunning water in the form of streams is a potent source of tranquility. What natural landscape scenario would be complete without such a backdrop? Natural landscape is sought after, designed, and chosen as the new wave in landscaping as just about everyone is looking to return to a simpler, more tranquil time.", "domain": "design"}

That is our vision; a design methodology which would provide safety, shelter and purpose to 200 people in emergency displacement while caring for the land on which the settlement is established. As a core project of Blueprint Alliance, it emcompasses the skills of all our members ensuring as much of our whole systems thinking as possible is imbued in this visionary framework.\nWe will initially look both inwardly to the alliance and outwardly to capture knowledge from camp designers, permaculturists, activists, social workers, humanitarian aid consultants, and more, to inform our framework. We will then demonstrate the potential of such a framework by completing a demonstration site in Tamera, Portugal, and at one other location to be later defined.\nWe embark on a year long project with a dedicated team of 11 and the full support of the wider Blueprint Alliance as well as the community of Tamera. We will complete a focused research phase of 6 months before transitioning to a hands on phase for implementation, monitoring and evaluation. More project updates will come as we move through our milestones.\nIn the meantime, read below to discover how we came to this project launch.\nThe project emerged during our spring 2016 alliance meeting in Tamera, Portugal. We felt confronted by the urgent call for support of refugees and a patient desire for systemic change. We agreed that we needed to find a strategy to respond to the refugee crisis that is aligned to the values of Blueprint (integration / demonstration centres / capacity building). And asked ourselves - What is an intelligent answer to this crisis? We decided to look at showcasing our integrative systems while demonstrating their replicability across climates and adaptability to emergency settlement needs.\nIn the weeks that followed, a Blueprint200 project meeting was held in Malvern, UK, with alliance members and collaborators; Chris Evans, Jay Abrahams, Ruth Andrade, Michael Howlett, Peter Mellett, Julia Wright, Mark Constantine, Marcus Dittrich, Christoph Ulbig, Dror Zohar and Carolyn Gomez. We focused on existing refugee and emergency camp situations and design standards as well as regenerative possibilities all while skills sharing. Truly diving into our breadth of experience and knowledge to feel into the scope of our vision.\n(left: Michael & Dror / right: Chris, Marcus & Christoph - collaborating on a table top settlement deisgn)\nFor the following months a team came together to design the practicalities of such a project; who would do what, what are the financial needs, how will funding be secured. Presenting a project proposal to Blueprint Alliance in September 2016.\nCREATING OUR TEAM - INVITING SURPLUS PERMACULTURE DESIGN\nDuring our September meeting, 2016, a project proposal was brought forwards with the role; Design Lead identified as vacant. We found ourselves with several designers as part of Blueprint Alliance, yet all already commissioned for work and unable to hold the strings as Design Lead, yet able to contribute. However, Brecht Deriemaeker from Surplus Permaculture Design (Surplus) had been invited to the meeting as a collaborator and immediately identified the Surplus team as being willing and able to fill the role. This would mean that every position was filled. The following roles were identified with the named members: Project coordination (Carolyn), Design Lead (Surplus Permaculture Design), implementation coordinator (Marcus), funding coordinator (Christoph), Documentation co-ordinator (Ethan), documentation team (Dominik & Pete).\n(left: Brecht, Ruth, Christoph, Marcus, Dror, Janos, Bori, Carolyn, Eynat, Doerthe & Bernd - during the review of the roles for Blueprint200)\n(right: Brecht, Bee, Ruth, Dror, Tom, Marcus, Douglas - Solar Mirror presentation at the workshop in Tamera, Portugal)\nFIRST TEAM MEETING - FINAL PROJECT PROPOSAL\nAfter meeting Brecht and having the Surplus team on board, it was time for us to meet and finalise our project proposal. Gregory, Nick and Brecht from Surplus travelled to Tamera in November 2016 for an intensive series of 5 days of collaboration. An opportunity for Marcus, Christoph and myself to get to know the Surplus team and an opportunity for Surplus to get a feeling for Tamera, the qualities of the land and the Blueprint200 vision. We came together and our proposal was born; detailed milestones, deliverables, corresponding budget and project timeline. All that was left was to share this with Blueprint Alliance for full support.\n(Greg, Nick and Brecht from Surplus with Christoph looking at water harvesting and small scale food gardens in the Solar Village in Tamera, Portugal)\nAligned with the values held by The Grace Foundation, it was a natural fit for the foundation to share our project vision with investors. Within a few weeks, investors who felt that our vision was timely, invested and we have been able to pursue the project preparation and are now launching the first phase of the project. Our full financial needs have been met and we have received €74,000 of support from The Grace Foundation. Further funding efforts will be made as the project progresses to secure the remainder of the funds necessary to complete the implementation, monitoring and evaluation.\nAll project updates and published documentation will be shared in our News section.

More precisely, a data structure is a collection of data values, the relationships among them, and the functions or operations that can be applied to the data.\nData structures serve as the basis for abstract data types (ADT). The ADT defines the logical form of the data type. The data structure implements the physical form of the data type.\nDifferent types of data structures are suited to different kinds of applications, and some are highly specialized to specific tasks. For example, relational databases commonly use B-tree indexes for data retrieval, while compiler implementations usually use hash tables to look up identifiers.\nData structures provide a means to manage large amounts of data efficiently for uses such as large databases and internet indexing services. Usually, efficient data structures are key to designing efficient algorithms. Some formal design methods and programming languages emphasize data structures, rather than algorithms, as the key organizing factor in software design. Data structures can be used to organize the storage and retrieval of information stored in both main memory and secondary memory.", "domain": "design"}

(it’s a little too much to expect them all to be looked at)))) is that people submit their crazy home designs and the TV channel chooses the weirdest/most extravagant/least practical ones to be part of the show. Sadly, they don’t fund the build, which is why my design has remained thus far in my head.\n[The show opens with a camera panning across a high cliff-top. A single track leads from the road through scrubby grass, peppered with wild flowers. High clouds scud across the sky, giving a dappled effect to the grassy expanse and the grey-blue sea ahead. The track ends up at a small, gravel car park without a fence. It is set back from the edge of the cliff and next to it, a hill rises inexplicably on the front of the cliff, as though a knoll had been left too long in the oven and grown out of all proportion. On closer inspection, its gentle curves seem divided – the lower edges have been cultivated and turned into vegetable patches! The top boasts a further smattering of wild flowers and some low, shining domes. Further, larger glass domes become apparent at ground level. A gorse bush in bloom wafts the scent of coconut and sunshine towards you (or would, if it weren’t on screen) and as you pull up in the car park and the angle changes, you see a round aperture cut into the far side of the hill, and within it, a door…]\nIt’s an awesome exterior, wait til you see the rest.\nThere’s a wide hall beyond the door, with blond parquet flooring and coathooks on one wall. The ceiling is snug, but not too low, and the light floods in through those awesome reflective, tunnelly-leads-to-outside-giving-natural-light things (anyone know the actual word for those? I’d be most grateful), complemented by small spotlights. Shoes are in a rack under the coats, and a wooden chest of drawers (antique, obviously, probably with some vestiges of floral painted designs) sits in a state of shabby chic, holding telephone and note pad and an ornate bowl for keys.\nThe hall leads down a flight of stairs and, moving further on, the light changes and becomes flooded with that peculiar brightness you find where water is reflected. A massive, crescent-shaped sweep of a room, encompassing lounge and open-plan kitchen leads the eye to the panel of thick glass windows and a set of glass doors, covering the inner curve of the crescent, where a small courtyard, fronted with further glass in the form of a fence, seems to drop directly off into the sea.The light-tunnels from the hall peter out and become replaced by eco-friendly spotlights (if such a thing exists).\nComfy, huge sofas cluster around a brightly patterned, large rug on the floor towards the centre of the crescent. There is a handy storage unit for children’s toys near the end of the bank of windows. A low, wooden coffee table holds magazines and coasters (and, in all probability, water rings from unkempt teacups). The kitchen area is in the back of the crescent, to the left of the hallway. It has a kitchen island (always wanted one of them) and expanses of pale grey-blue granite topping. The oven has a fancy fume hood. A bowl of fruit in a fancy wire basket is at the breakfast bar. The dining area is directly in front of the kitchen, occupying the left corner of the crescent. A solid oak table and quirky, mismatched, brightly painted chairs add to the dissonance between sleek modernity and shabby eccentricity.\nYour eye is drawn to the walls surrounding the outer edge of the crescent. They are plastered and rendered somewhat roughly, but not painted. At intervals, huge, bright paintings create almost a gallery feel, inviting some of the outdoors in. Some small mirrors and glass decorations are also visible, positioned to reflect the seascape opposite. Wooden doors lead off in four directions and there is another small hallway leading away from behind the lounge area.\n|Delightfully, this painting belongs to me. It’s by British artist Yvonne Coomber and is one of my most treasured things-which-bring-me-joy. It’s about 1.5m square.|\nBehind the doors are the bedrooms; three for children, one for guests. They are not huge, but are beautiful, with further paintings adorning the walls, built-in wardrobes and more snug ceilings. Light is provided by further installments of the light-tunnel/spotlight combinations. Chests-of-drawers are present in all rooms, as are wooden treasure chests, reminiscent of sea-trade and every magical treasure-chest ever conceived. The guest room has a tiny en-suite wet-room.\nThe hallway behind the lounge area has a family wet-room style bathroom behind another door, with a mosaic-tiled shower and a sunken bath at floor level (just for fun). The tiles in the mosaic are every colour of the rainbow and peter out into the more sombre tiles which cover the rest of the room. Fluffy towels on heated rails and a rainbow array of bubble baths make this seem like the perfect place. As you look up, you realise that above the bath, there is a large skylight, rather than a light-tunnel, and you can see seagulls flying overhead against the blue and white of today’s sky.\nBeyond the bathroom is a flight of stairs leading upwards, then angling round. The light is much brighter at the top. You ascend and find luxurious carpet, a wooden ceiling, curving up from the edges of the floor and another almost-crescent of floor-ceiling windows. The master bedroom. The king-sized bed is central, facing the sea, and beyond it, a small, separate room holds another tiny en-suite wet-room, with a circular window at head height. Further wooden chests of drawers follow the lines of the walls, and at the opposite end to the bathroom, a tiny walk-in closet contains the clothes and shoes of the inhabitants. Another circular window provides light in here, too.\nStanding next to the main windows and looking up, you see the waving fringe of the grass roof and admire the way the sparkles from the sea dance on the ceiling. You can see down into the courtyard now, and notice a sunken corner with an ornate ironwork table and chair set and a barbeque pit.\nReturning downstairs, you notice a door opposite the stairway and, intrigued, push it open. A flight of stone steps seems to lead into the depths of the earth, lit by dim wall-mounted bracket lights. Small, inset lights in the walls next to the stairs make you feel more comfortable about descending. The ceiling of the tunnel is rocky and unplastered.\nFeeling as though you have walked down more steps than you can count, an opening appears to your right. You realise that this room must be carved into the cliff under the main body of the house. A weird light seems to emanate from the room. As you get closer, the scent of water hits you and you round the corner to find a cave-like place with beach-cobbled floor and a secret swimming pool. As your eyes grow accustomed to the light, you realise that the walls and ceiling of the cave are studded with glass gems as they curve gently over the pool. Upon closer inspection, you realise that there are no light fixings here, and the light is emanating from beneath the water. You step closer and see that the lights, in many colours, lend magnificence to the mosaics in the base of the pool – you see ships, waves, underwater creatures towards you, and further away, the sky with glints of golden in the clouds and glints of silver in the waves.\nHaving amazingly brought your swimsuit with you, you quickly change and step down the tiled stairs into the pool. You lazily circle the pool a couple of times before wondering why the light seems so intense at one particular point. Standing up, you take a closer look beneath the water and are astonished to see a tunnel! Irresistably drawn, you duck down and swim through. The mosaic tiles here are mostly black, with occasional silver or gold, and are studded with tiny lights, like stars. The tunnel is short, and almost as soon as the experience begins, it ends, and widens out into another pool. In the base is a giant, glowing mosaic of the golden sun, with a friendly smile upon its face. The walls and ceiling of the cave are studded with many more glass gems, reminding you of the way Disney cartoons see the dwarves’ jewel mines. The water ripples light across the ceiling and you spy a button close to the edge of the pool. You swim forward, narrowly avoiding banging your legs on the tiled ledge above the sun’s face. You press the button and jets of bubbles turn the surface of the water to turmoil as you lean back into what you now realise is a seat, and relax.\nLater, blissfully refreshed, you return to explore the remainder of the tunnel. The stairs continue to descend, further and further, until you are sure you can feel the earth’s heat emanating from its core. It’s not really that far, and you do reach the bottom. A room, not too large, sits with comfortable arm-chairs, a small table and is lined with bookshelves. It is lit in the fashion of a Victorian-style reading room and the books scattered across a low table indicate its frequent use. The window is odd, and seems particularly well framed, but as you look, you realise that it is not the air you are seeing, but the sea! The window looks out below the waves! You marvel for a while, then realise that it’s nearly time for the closing credits and you haven’t yet congratulated the owners on their ingenuity and awesomeness of design.\nRapidly ascending the massive flight of stairs, you begin to understand why there is no need for a fancy home gym in this dwelling. At the top of the stairs, you bump into Kevin McCloud, weeping slightly in wonder and envy at what has been done with this home. Your hosts are gracious, eccentric and seem like salt-of-the-earth types. You’d like to resent them their beautiful home, but you know that they earned it through their dedication to the world-wide introduction of the incredible curative, Licked By Kittens Therapy. You leave, sadly, hoping one day to visit again.\n[The camera follows you as you get sadly back into your car and leave. It rises as though on the wings of a bird, leaving you at the end of the driveway and panning back to the huge knoll of the most awesome house in the world. The sun is going down now, and glinting palely off the glass domes atop the hill. The sound of the waves drifts up from the base of the cliff and in the salty air, a group of seagulls call softly to one another.]\nThere’s nothing like a good flight of fancy, is there.", "domain": "design"}

Of course I immediately signed up and have already received my first issue!\nThis made me remember a past issue with a bag on the cover I have wanted to make for a while now, using different small strips of favorite fabric embellishment. I decided to use some of my stash of fabric selvedges I have been saving.\nI started with a piece of Osnaburg Fabric larger than the dimension I needed. I overlapped the outside edge over the raw edge of each selvedge strip staggering the lengths, leaving the ends unstitched. When I cut it down to size I realized I trimmed it a little short, so I took the end I cut off, turned it around and stitched to the other side, creating an additional design element. I love happy mistakes!\nAs I have said before, I save everything, so from another project I had this flower and leaves left over from Silk Dupioni and piece of fabric painted with Shiva Paintsticks. Adding more selvedge pieces I then appliqued the flower and leaves to the other side of the bag.\nThe piece trimmed off the bottom worked well as part of the handle.\nNext the bottom pieces were added, rows of stitching the width of the presser foot are added for a great detail and durability. I love the way it looks!\nButtons for embellishment were added on the handle and the back.\nThis was a fun, quick project, and a great little bag I really enjoy using. It's the perfect size if you just have a few extra things to carry that won't fit in your handbag. I use it to carry my iPad along with a magazine and notebook for sketching when I know I will be going somewhere I'll be waiting!\nIf you are a fan of Stitch Magazine I highly recommend signing up for the Auto-Ship program!", "domain": "design"}

In their paper published March 23 in IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, researchers from Seoul National University investigated the potential for a camera-based pass-through VR experience using a device smaller than the average VR headset. Their proposed prototype is less than one-sixth of that size, using just 3.3 millimeters of physical space between the glasses' display panel and the lens.\nKiseung Bang, the first author of the paper, told The Academic Times that this research is a first step in bringing smaller VR devices to market, because pass-through VR technology is a relatively new concept. Bang explained that this builds off existing \"see-through\" augmented reality glasses, in which 3D images, animations and videos are overlaid to the wearer's real-world setting. Those AR glasses resemble a normal pair of glasses that can easily be removed.\nPass-through VR does the same thing, incorporating virtual reality with a real-time view of the user's surroundings. Bang has been studying \"see-through\" AR glasses for several years, but he was inspired to expand his research after being introduced to pass-through VR.\n\"All desired properties for AR already existed in the pass-through VR, such as wide [field of view], eye-box and the occlusion effect,\" Bang said. \"And I realized that the only reason I cannot use this in a public place right now is the weird look of wearing a headset. After that, I couldn't stop dreaming of using a glasses-like VR device.\"\nMost current VR headsets are large and uncomfortable to wear, and their presence in everyday life may be unwelcome to people unfamiliar with or suspicious of wearable technology. Right now, they are typically only used in one location at a time because they are often hooked up to a computer with wires.\nBut what's inside the headset is mostly empty space. The physical distance between the display panel and the lens is required by the conventional VR optical design, which uses a single floating lens for each eye, Bang explained.\n\"This primitive optical design has been used without drastic changes since the early days of VR,\" the authors said in the paper. \"The slow development of optical design has been a bottleneck for the explosive expansion of VR. In order to widen this bottleneck and open a new page of the VR market, next-level VR optics is required.\"\nThe researchers' proposed optical system is designed to minimize empty space in the headset. It successfully reduced the required space thickness to 3.3 millimeters, a fraction of the standard headset shape that usually has a thickness of about 5 centimeters and a width of about 15 centimeters. The system also achieves a 102-degree field of view, which refers to the extent of the observable VR environment. This is comparable to current state-of-the-art VR products.\nBecause conventional VR optics use a single lens per eye, the distance from the center of the single lens to the focal points of the lens, known as the focal length, cannot be shorter than a certain practical limitation, according to the paper. Existing VR headsets are thick because the single lens is performing two different functions at the same time — namely, floating the display panel at a far distance and collecting the light from the display panel to the eye-box, the area in which the full, high-quality image can be seen.\n\"We try to solve the problem by breaking the link between these two functions. Instead of a single lens, our proposed system consists of a lenslet array and a collecting lens,\" the authors said in the paper. \"The lenslet array is in charge of the first function, and the collecting lens is in charge of the second function.\"\nThe new system inserts an additional lenslet array on the lens, which circumvents the limitation so that the focal length can be shorter than one-half of what it is in a conventional VR lens. A lenslet array consists of a set of lenslets, which are small lenses, in the same plane.\nIn their design, the researchers also incorporated an optical path folding technique called a pancake lens, in which light bounces back and forth between the surfaces with polarization-dependent coating, making the required physical distance shorter than the system's optical path length.\nThis technique is meant to reduce the overall size of the VR optical system and reduce the required thickness by one-third. As a result, the researchers' proposed VR optical system has a thickness of less than one-sixth of conventional VR, Bang said.\nAltogether, the proposed VR display design is a combination of a Fresnel lenslet array, a Fresnel lens, and the polarization-based optical folding technique. A Fresnel lens is a type of composite compact lens made up of a succession of concentric rings that was originally developed for use in lighthouses.\nIn addition to achieving a wide field of view of 102 degrees, the system has a wide eye-box of 8.8 millimeters and an ergonomic eye-relief of 20 millimeters. Eye-relief refers to the distance between the lens of the head-mounted display and the user's cornea, for a full viewing angle. All the lenslets in the system can be designed identically, and off-the-shelf Fresnel optics can be used, the authors said, which helps lower production costs.\nAdditionally, Bang and his co-researchers built a sunglasses-sized VR prototype. Its total thickness measures 8.8 millimeters, including all necessary optical components and the LCD display.\nPrevious research regarding lenslet array displays has shown that thin VR devices are a possibility, the authors said in the paper, but they weren't able to achieve a sufficient optical performance for VR.\n\"Many researchers have proposed a compact near-eye display using a lenslet array. However, many of the studies focused more on 3D display capability rather than display performance, and their systems did not have a sufficient [field of view], resolution and a proper eye-relief,\" the authors said in the paper.\n\"The key point of our research is that we successfully improved the performance of the lenslet array structure by optimization with the fundamental analysis of VR optics,\" Bang said.\nMore work needs to be done before the system is ready for commercial application, and its biggest current drawback is the resolution of the display. But Bang said that this can be improved by optimizing the Fresnel lenses, and as the technology advances, he believes that VR at this scale will eventually be a part of everyday life.\nThe study, \"Lenslet VR: Thin, Flat and Wide-FOV Virtual Reality Display Using Fresnel Lens and Lenslet Array,\" published March 23 in the IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics journal, was authored by Kiseung Bang, Youngjin Jo, Minseok Chae and Byoungho Lee, Seoul National University.", "domain": "design"}

The great Moderniste (or Art Nouveau) master's still unfinished Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Família (Expiatory Temple of the Holy Family) has become Barcelona's most emblematic structure, while another dozen-odd mansions, parks, schools, gateways, lampposts, and other works in and around Barcelona provide a constant Gaudí presence throughout the Catalonian capital.\nCátedra Gaudí (Av. Pedralbes 7, Pedralbes, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. 93/204-5250), a Gaudí library and study center, is directed by Joan Bassegoda i Nonell, Barcelona's top Gaudí expert. In one of his many articles, Bassegoda described Gaudí's unique approach to architecture with his legendary \"originality is a return to origins.\" Bassegoda explains the master's conviction that, throughout the history of architecture, architects had become prisoners of the forms they were able to create with the tools of their trade: the compass and the T-square. Buildings had been composed of shapes these instruments could draw: circles, triangles, squares, and rectangles that in three dimensions became prisms, pyramids, cylinders, and spheres used for the construction of pillars, planes, columns, and cupolas.\nGaudí observed that in nature these shapes are unknown. Admiring the structural efficiency of trees, mammals, and the human form, he noted that \"…neither are trees prismatic, nor are bones cylindrical, nor are leaves triangular.\" A closer study of natural forms revealed that bones, branches, muscles, and tendons are all composed of and supported by fibers. Thus, though a surface curves, it is supported from within by a fibrous network that Gaudí translated into what he called \"ruled geometry,\" a system of inner reinforcement he designed to construct hyperboloids, conoids, helicoids, or parabolic hyerboloids, all complicated terms for simple forms and familiar shapes: the femur is hyperboloid; the way shoots grow off a branch is helicoidal.\nGaudí, then, was more than a sculptor playing with form -- he was an engineer experimenting with construction. His parabolic (naturally looping) arches were functional techniques first and formal exercises on a second level. His catenary (from cadena, for chain) arches were inverted from chains hanging from stress points over mirrors. Gaudí's evolution away from the T-square and the compass can be traced from his first project onward. Casa Vicens (1883-85) was colorful and daring though angular and rectilinear; in the Palau Güell (1885-89), only his rooftop chimneys hint at what's to come; then in Casa Calvet (1898-1900) the vestibule, elevator, and stairwell are beginning to warp and heave into organic suggestions. Just a few years later arrive the undulating stone face of Casa Milà (La Pedrera, 1905). Casa Batlló (1907), done shortly after, incorporates a scaly dragon back of a roof and its tibias, femurs, and skulls. Finally, the project that consumed the last 20 years of his life, the phantasmagorical Sagrada Família, was a virtual midtown massif and forest.\nIn the end, though, as Bassegoda recounts, Gaudí's innocent and playful nature, that of the student Gaudí who sculpted the rocks in Josep Fontseré's 1878 La Cascada (Waterfall) in the Parc de la Ciutadella, prevailed. The great master's finest accolade came from the mother of a childhood friend from Reus who, upon seeing Barcelona and Gaudí's architecture for the first time, commented that the famous Moderniste was, after all, \"just doing the same things he always did as a kid.\"", "domain": "design"}

The shower has to be built according to certain local codes, so the options depend on how your garage is set up and where the floor drain is located. You could always enclose your shower and install new drains, but your plumber will decide the best thing to do keeping your budget in mind. Here are some tips.\nHook Into Existing Water Lines If Possible\nIf you have a washer or sink in the garage, you may be able to hook right into existing water lines and save money on putting in new runs of piping. If you do this, it might control where you have to put the shower, and the shower needs to be away from electrical outlets.\nEven if you build an enclosed shower some distance away from the existing water lines, or even if you have to install new lines that connect to another room, it's easier to do using PEX tubes since these are flexible and easy to run through walls without having to tear walls completely open. However, your plumber can also use copper pipes if you prefer. You'll need to have both hot and cold water lines run to the garage if they're not already there, unless you plan to take cold showers.\nDecide How To Hook Up The Drain\nYour plumber might add an elevated shower so the drain can run under the shower pan instead of having to bust up concrete to install a drain. The drain can then hook into an existing drain and empty with gravity alone. If you have hot and cold water and a drainage system, you can have a shower that doesn't take up very much room in your garage, and you can still use it for quick showers when you're dirty from mowing, gardening, or working out.\nMake Sure A Shower Is All You Need\nOnce you start planning a new shower with the help of a plumber, you might decide you want more since the water lines and drain will be functional. You might want a sink for handwashing and even a toilet. An extra toilet would be handy if your home only has one bathroom. If you want a sink, toilet, and shower, you might as well have a bathroom added. It will cost more, but you'll have an extra bathroom when you need it. Of course, you'll need to make sure an extra bathroom will fit conveniently in your garage, and that might mean you'll need to relocate your clutter and storage items.\nFor more information, reach out to local plumbers.", "domain": "design"}

It relaxes and warms. It draws you near and elevates the room around it to new heights of sophistication. Our fireplaces bring your dreams to life. The wide selection of design options gives you the flexibility to create living spaces that satisfy even the most discerning taste.\nSurpassing your expectations is our goal. Every home is different so using the same fireplace design for each project simply won't do. FPU sells, installs and services all types of gas, electric and wood burning fireplaces - we'll help plan your escape with the widest selection of fireplace solutions in B.C.\nA gas fireplace uses propane or natural gas\nA gas fireplace is a fireplace alternative that is fueled using propane or natural gas and one of a few different venting options. A gas fireplace is a very popular choice because of the availability of gas lines, the relatively low cost, and the ability to control heating with the push of a button. Natural gas and propane options are available. Both are more efficient and convenient than a wood fireplace, and both cut down energy costs and produce more heat.\nThere are direct vent and ventless versions, as well as many that make use of an existing chimney if you are converting the fireplace you have to gas. Make use of inserts for easy conversion, you can read more in the fireplace inserts area of this guide.\nOverall, a gas fireplace is a great option because of the low cost and the safety involved. You also don't have to sacrifice the traditional look and style of a classic fireplace because you can simply convert the one you have or, if you are installing a new one, you can find designs that look exactly like a standard wood fireplace.\nWood burning systems vary considerably\nWood burning systems vary considerably in both design and operating efficiency. There are two major types of wood-burning fireplaces, traditional masonry fireplaces that are typically built of brick or stone and are constructed on site by a mason; and “low mass” fireplaces that are engineered and pre-fabricated in a manufacturing facility prior to installation. Most fireplaces, whether masonry or low mass, are not used as a primary source of heat; their function is primarily for ambiance and secondary heating.\nTraditional masonry fireplaces - The traditional masonry fireplace is used in nearly 50% of all homes burning wood. Interestingly enough, this type of wood burning unit is the least desirable system when considering capturing the maximum heat for the longest period of time. An open fireplace has an operating efficiency rating of about 10% meaning that only 10% of its energy makes it into the home as usable heat.\nConvectional fireplaces - The convectional fireplace is a metal fabricated fireplace with a double wall around the firebox. It improves heat retention and availability over the conventional type by about four times. Hot air between the walls is returned as usable heat. This type of wood burning unit has an operating efficiency rating of about 40%.\nElectric fireplaces provide supplemental heating\nElectric fireplaces work by drawing in cool air, heating it internally using a heating coil, and gently forcing the warmed air back out into the room by way of a fan. This provides supplemental heating for the desired area without the muss or fuss of smoke or chemicals.\nAll electric fireplaces list a particular amount of space they can adequately heat, depending on type and manufacturer.\nMost electric fireplace models allow you to control the look of the flame, making this type of fireplace more appealing to many.\nOutdoor fireplaces are available according to the needs of a person\nOutdoor fireplaces combine the coziness and comfort of an indoor fireplace with the fun and warmth of an open air camp fire. The concept of an outdoor fireplace is quite popular among those who enjoy the great outdoors. There are a variety of outdoor fireplaces available that come in a variety of style, sizes and price points. The design and construction of the firebox, chimney, smoke chamber and flue are designed with intricate measurement so that each component performs in harmony to provide the safest, healthiest fire. While fixing an outdoor fireplace, all the components must be placed correctly otherwise the fireplace will not be lit properly and may send clouds of smoke towards the people around when sitting near it.\nOutdoor fireplaces are available according to the needs of a person. If warmth is the main criteria, there are fireplaces that closely resemble traditional camp fires. These fireplaces disperse warmth in all directions, making it ideal for people to be seated around it, much like a camp fire. If appearance is the main factor, there are plenty of beautiful, elaborate outdoor fireplaces available. These design-oriented fireplaces are often large and are available in different shapes and colors. Outdoor fireplaces do not lack in variety, from aesthetic stone built fireplaces to affordable modular ones, these fireplaces add richness and beauty to the patio. Easily assembled, outdoor fireplaces range from wrought iron furnace-like constructions to old-fashioned copper designs, and even gas powered ones. Non-permanent fireplaces serve as an easy, convenient and transportable light weight device for seasonal use.", "domain": "design"}

Understanding these needs and characteristics will be essential to building communities to best accommodate the needs of our new older generation and allowing them to be independent for longer.\nChanging perceptions of what ‘older living’ stands for is perhaps one of the biggest challenges for retirement living developers. Traditional options such as aging in place, senior “village” housing, assisted living and nursing homes are not as appealing to baby boomers as newer options such as hybrid care, life plan communities, branded living, urban living and university-affiliated living. Freedom of choice, movement and independence are most valuable to baby boomers as they continue to stay active and social.\nThis non-traditional senior living approach is a massive shift away from the older, institutionalised setting and is made possible through innovative design. By providing amenities complementing the care continuum and promoting wellness, residents of this generation will remain healthy and happy.\nFlexible spaces and community interaction\nOne of the main challenges for older adults during the transitional period into senior living is overcoming the feeling of loneliness. In response to this, architects and interior designers can create inviting and adaptable social spaces engaging residents while attracting the local community.\nSome examples of those spaces include areas to host interactive programs and activities, games and hobbies, well-being and exercise classes, and social programming and events. Pet-friendly areas, entertainment venues, outdoor spaces and flexible dining options bring a fresh take to the senior living experience while fostering intergenerational relationships within the community.\nThoughtful integration through design\nThoughtfully integrating retirement living into existing urban environments and mixed-use communities gives residents and their families more opportunities to spend time together and enjoy the offerings adjacent to the community. Non-traditional senior living locations, such as facilities near schools and universities, foster intergenerational activities and can aid in lifelong learning.\nIntegrating senior living into larger mixed-use communities also provides spaces for partnerships with businesses within the community. From local shops, art studios and even ballroom dancing, older adults can take advantage of their neighbourhood offerings and stay active within their community.\nMembers of the baby boomer generation values trying new things, personal growth, healthy living, individual choice and community service. It is time to design spaces that reflect their values and assimilate them into vibrant communities.\nPrioritizing wellness in all forms\nThere is more to wellness than fitness centres and healthy eating stations. In a senior living community, it is important to focus on the holistic integration of emotional, mental, physical, social and spiritual wellness into spaces. Senior living communities can take cues from hospitality, fitness, dining and other types of wellness-oriented businesses to strengthen their offerings.\nWith the wellness industry steadily growing, it’s worth noting that senior well-being extends well beyond standard healthcare and focuses on lifelong learning, instructor- and technology-led exercise, health education and disease management, food and nutrition education and preparation, connection to nature, and intergenerational programming.\nNon-traditional senior living developments are steadily eliminating the stigma around senior environments while empowering residents to live the life they want. Baby boomers are actively searching for communities that meet their growing demands of healthcare, dining and shopping. The idea of a one-size-fits-all senior living community no longer appeals to this vibrant generation of older adults, and as their interests and lifestyles shift, senior living communities need to adapt to their way of living.", "domain": "design"}

Because the shared filesystem is a common feature of most HPC installations around, you can very easily utilize it to broadcast a serialized version of the model to all worker nodes. In COBREXA, that functionality is wrapped in a\nSerialized model type, which provides a tiny abstraction around this functionality:\n- you call\nserialize_modelbefore you start your analysis to place the model to the shared storage (and, possibly, free the RAM required to hold the model)\n- the freshly created\nSerializedmodel type is tiny – it only stores the file name where the model data can be found\n- all analysis functions automatically call\nprecache!on the model to get the actual model data loaded before the model is used, which transparently causes the loading from the shared media, and thus the fast distribution\nThe use is pretty straightforward. After you have your model loaded, you simply convert it to the small serialized form:\nmodel = load_model(...) # ... prepare the model ... cachefile = tempname(\".\") sm = serialize_model(model, cachefile)\nThen, the analysis functions is run as it would be with a \"normal\" model:\nAfter the analysis is done, it is useful to remove the temporary file:\nAlways ensure that the temporary filenames are unique – if there are two jobs running in parallel and both use the same filename to cache and distribute a model, both are likely going to crash, and almost surely produce wrong results.

Our design philosophy is based on a three-tiered, connected approach that prioritises the client experience at every stage of the process.\nAt the top of our philosophy is Tier 1: Client-Centric Design, which places people at the heart of everything we do. We strive to understand the unique needs, desires, and preferences of each client, and we use this knowledge to inform every design decision we make.\nTier 2, Purpose & Place, builds upon this foundation by considering the context of the building's location, purpose, and surrounding environment. We believe that architecture should not only be visually striking, but also purposeful and relevant to its intended use and the community it serves.\nAt Tier 3, we focus on our 7 Core Design Principles: Beauty, Function, Value, Light, Comfort, Efficiency, and Biophilic. These principles serve as our guideposts for every design decision we make, from selecting materials and finishes to designing spaces that promote well-being and connect people to nature.\nWe believe that this three-tiered approach to architecture is essential for creating spaces that are not only visually stunning, but also meaningful and purposeful for the people who use them.\nThis week we explore the first of our Tier Three: 7 core design principles:\nOne of the defining characteristics of beauty in architecture is the fusion of form and function. Imagine Architecture is proficient in striking this balance, creating designs that are not just visually appealing but also highly practical. Take the Palm Springs Modern house, for example. It seamlessly blends the iconic mid-century modern style with contemporary amenities, providing both a comfortable living space and a visually stunning environment. This kind of integration of purpose and design is at the heart of Imagine Architecture's success in creating beautiful buildings.\nMoreover, beauty in architecture often hinges on the emotional impact a structure has on its inhabitants. Imagine Architecture excels in this aspect as well. The Palm Springs Modern house, with its open spaces, large windows, and an abundance of natural light, evokes feelings of tranquillity, openness, and connection with the outdoors. This emotional resonance is an integral part of the design philosophy of Imagine Architecture.\nPaddock 35 in South Taranaki is another noteworthy example. This innovative design project respects the natural beauty of the landscape. Rather than dominating the environment, it blends harmoniously with it, showcasing Imagine Architecture's commitment to sustainability and integration with nature.\nBeauty in architecture is also about incorporating sustainable and eco-friendly principles. Imagine Architecture recognizes the importance of environmental consciousness and weaves it into their designs. Paddock 35, with its eco-friendly features and use of sustainable materials, serves as an example of their dedication to creating beautiful buildings that have a positive impact on the environment.\nIn conclusion, Imagine Architecture is a master of the art of creating beauty in architecture. With a focus on the seamless integration of form and function, emotional resonance, and sustainable principles, they produce remarkable structures like the Palm Springs Modern house and Paddock 35, which are not only visually striking but also deeply meaningful. As we continue to appreciate the beauty in architecture, Imagine Architecture's work serves as a testament to the enduring power of human creativity and design.\nLearn more about our design philosophy here at https://www.imaginenz.com/philosophy", "domain": "design"}

All pricing is standard for grid-tied systems.\nVarious Beam End Designs\nWe have 4 options for you to choose from when selecting how the ends of your beams should look.

These have a steel post in center with 2 wider Aluminum fronts on the outside. The aluminum is embossed with the wood grain finish. Another option is to upgrade to the use of fiberglass columns. You still use the provided steel posts for inside the columns, then set these decorative columns around them. These will arrive to you unpainted. A faux finish can be applied to give it a marbleized look. Each column costs $150 to upgrade. A commercial grade post will look like the standard posts, however, it uses a heaver gauge steel post inside and the post is fully wrapped with the aluminum. Those posts cost an additional $130 each.\nNO Painting - ever\nNO Warping or Cracking - Guaranteed\nNO Insect Infestation\nNO Rotting like other materials", "domain": "design"}

Are you ready to roll the dice and spice up your social calendar with a fabulous casino themed party? From the glitz and glamour of Las Vegas to the suave sophistication of James Bond, these parties offer the perfect opportunity to dress to the nines and let your fashion sense shine. So, before you hit the jackpot, let’s dive into some tips on what to wear to make a grand entrance at your next casino soirée!\nEmbrace the Glamour\nWhen it comes to casino themed parties, glamour is the name of the game. Channel your inner movie star or high roller and opt for outfits that scream sophistication. Ladies, consider a sleek and stylish cocktail dress with a touch of sparkle or a classic black gown that oozes elegance. Gentlemen, a well-tailored suit is always a safe bet, but don’t be afraid to mix it up with a sharp tuxedo or a snazzy jacket paired with smart trousers.\nGet Your Casino Colors On\nTo truly immerse yourself in the casino vibe, incorporating the iconic colors of the gambling world is a fun way to go. Think vibrant reds, dazzling golds, and deep blacks. Ladies, a red dress accompanied by gold accessories or a black jumpsuit paired with statement gold jewelry can make heads turn. Gentlemen, consider a black suit with a red pocket square or a gold tie to add a touch of casino-inspired flair.\nPlay with Accessories\nAccessories can effortlessly elevate your casino ensemble from ordinary to extraordinary. Ladies, a dazzling clutch, statement earrings, or a sparkling bracelet can add that extra touch of glam. Gentlemen, consider a stylish watch, a sleek tie clip, or a pocket square that complements your outfit and adds a polished finishing touch. And of course, don’t forget to bring your lucky charm!\nShoes that Win\nSelecting the right footwear is essential for any party, and a casino-themed event is no exception. Ladies, opt for heels that are comfortable enough to dance the night away, yet glamorous enough to grab attention. If heels aren’t your thing, a pair of stylish flats or dressy sandals can also work wonders. Gentlemen, choose dress shoes that complement your outfit, whether it’s classic oxfords or trendy loafers.\nKeep it Classy\nWhile casino-themed parties offer an opportunity to have fun with your outfit, it’s vital to strike the right balance between stylish and appropriate. Avoid anything too revealing or overly casual. Remember, you want to exude class and sophistication when deciding what to wear to a casino themed party.\nSo there you have it, fashion-forward party enthusiasts! Dressing to impress at a casino-themed party is all about embracing glamour, incorporating casino colors, playing with accessories, choosing the right shoes, and keeping it classy. With these tips in your back pocket, you’ll be ready to hit the party scene and turn heads at your next casino soirée. Whether you’re feeling lucky or just looking to have a good time, dressing the part will ensure you’re off to a winning start!\nDisclaimer: While dressing up is part of the fun, remember that what to wear to a casino themed party is just one aspect of a great party experience. For top-notch casino entertainment, contact Aces Up Casino Parties today. High-end casino tables and a professional staff of casino dealers are just a click away!

According to scrabblegocheat.net, It helps one know where they are originally from, how far wide their families have branched out, and discover distant relatives they didn’t even know existed.\nMaking a family tree can be a lot of work especially if there is some family history missing. However, it can also be a fun activity to do. This could either be for a school project or just a family activity. One creative way of doing this is using the layout for the classic word game Scrabble Go.\nHere’s a list of a few things you may need for the project:\nPrintable scrabble tiles with a wood background.\nGlue to hold the tiles to the paper.\nA picture frame.\nWith these and following the steps below, you are ready to embark on a fun journey.\n- Start by planning the layout\nLook for a standard Scrabble Go board and find a picture frame that fits the board perfectly. Proceed to cut the scrapbook paper to the same dimensions as the board.\nMeasure the size (length and width) of the scrapbook paper and that of a standard scrabble tile to determine how many tiles can fit the paper horizontally and vertically.\n- Design your crossword\nFirst, make a list of the names of all the family members that are to be included in the family tree. You certainly do not want to leave anyone out.\nFind an online crossword generator and type all the names on your list into it. The generator lets you determine the layout of your crossword and its size. Try as many different patterns as you like until you get one that pleases you.\nPrint out the digital format and use it as a blueprint.\n- Set up your tiles\nWith the printout, you can now determine the number of each letter that you need. There are numerous websites where you can find free printable scrabble tiles complete with each letter’s value and wood background. Print as many as you need.\nArrange the tiles as provided in the print out on a flat surface to get a preview of what the final product may look like.\n- Glue the tiles onto the paper\nBefore gluing, you can sketch out in faint pencil sketches the layout of your crossword on your scrapbook paper. Use the Scrabble Go board to make out the sketch to ensure the tiles fit perfectly.\nIt is wise to use a stiffer paper underneath to avoid destroying the paper when gluing. Glue the tiles carefully onto the paper.\n- Frame it\nOnce you are done gluing, let it dry out for a few minutes then frame it.\nThe Scrabble-styled family tree is an easy and relatively inexpensive project to do. Even more pleasantly, it can be a perfect gift for your parents’ wedding anniversary, a grandparent’s birthday, or something for the living room house décor.", "domain": "design"}

We have prepared the guidelines below to help you and your Sellers prepare for the scan session and ensure that we get the best 3D model possible of the home.\nThe DFW360 3D Scan Technician uses a special motorized camera controlled by an iPad. The camera is placed throughout all rooms of the home. The number of placements can range from as low as 50 to over 200. At each location, the camera rotates 360-degrees, stopping 6 times to take images and measurements. Each placement takes about 1 minute to complete.\nThe camera has three separate elements: one looking up, one looking down and one looking straight ahead. The data from each location is transmitted to the iPad during the scan session. The evening of the scan session, the data is uploaded to a cloud server and by the next day, the completed model is ready.\nLength Of Scan Session\n3D scan sessions take longer than photo shoots and depend on the size of the home. The larger the home, the more placements are required to properly image the home and provide Buyers with a logical flow of camera placements to tour the property. On average, the DFW360 3D Scan technician can image about 1,500 square feet per hour.\nHere are several approximate scan time examples (determined by square footage of home):\n2,000 sq ft = approx.1.5 hours\n4,000 sq ft = approx. 2.5 hours\n6,000 sq ft = approx. 3.5 hours\n8,000 sq ft = approx. 5 hours\nIn most regards, the preparation for a 3D scan session is the same as for a photo shoot:\nThe home should be clean and free from clutter.\nAll of the lights should be on.\nPets should be removed from the home during the scan session.\nThere are some important additional requirements for 3D scanning. The 3D camera “sees” 360-degrees, taking thousands of images. The model is built in software by aligning the data of every camera placement with those nearby. This alignment is absolutely essential to creating the final 3D model.\nHere are the additional requirements for a 3D scan session:\nAll objects in the home must be left in place during the scan session.\nAll doors must be left in the same position for the duration of the scan. Any decisions as to whether or not to include a particular room or area must be made at the beginning of the scan session.\nLocation Of People and Pets During Scan Session\nIt is best to have no other people in the home during the scan session. The camera “sees” 360-degrees and is continually rotating and taking images. Any movements by other persons or reflections in mirrors can be caught by the camera and there is no way to know this until the final model is rendered.\nIf it is not possible to have the home unoccupied during the scan session, then it is essential that any persons inside the home are on a different level of the home while the 3D Scan Technician is operating the camera. Other persons inside the home must stay away from stairwells or overlooks where the camera may see them looking up or down.\nWhen the 3D Scan Technician moves to another level, other persons in the home can switch locations to another level. Depending on the size of the home, the length of time that a level of the home would need to remain cleared is 1 to 3 hours.\nAfter The Scan Session\nYou will receive an email from DFW360 the day after the scan session notifying you that the 3D model is complete and including a link to your virtual tour with the 3D model embedded.", "domain": "design"}

It is regularly used in making of the handmade wool shawls, wool scarves, wool socks and wool ponchos as well as wool capes.\nThese products are always used in high end fashion, and they are focused on being hand knit from the finest Peruvian Highland wool or Merino wool.\nThe reasons for rarely dying these yarns are simple; the men’s and women’s clothing that is hand knit from their yarn will outlive most of us, and will still look completely new and exquisite.\nPeruvian Highland wool and Merino wool are truly the wonders that modern fabric must compete with.\nHere are just nine of the great benefits of Peruvian Highland & Merino wool that we have witnessed over the years.\nYes, the first and foremost benefit of using this wool is its infamous and almost unbelievable softness. You touch the cloth and it goes deep into your pores while feeling completely weightless and silky yet lighter than air.\nWe are not making this up, try yourself; go to a good wool clothing store and you will see. An entire wool poncho will be virtually weightless and it will sit on your skin like a soft silky thread that makes you comfortable and warm.\nThis lighter than air fabric will lock the air in its threads like nothing else. The entire fabric is weightless but it can truly fight the minus degrees cold that strikes many areas of the world every year.\nIt will make you instantaneously warm and cozy, and will not have any itchy or usually rough feel like that of regular wool. The fabric is incredibly soft and makes you completely and thoroughly warm.\nBelieve it or not, it will not make you warmer then you want to be either. This product has a tendency to stop retaining air when your body heats up after a certain point. Then it releases the air and cools down so that your body temperature will cool down as well.\nIt is oddly breathable, and makes you cool and comfortable while retaining the warmth to still keep you cozy. In many place like Peru, the people will where their Highland wools all day long. Even in the nearly unbearable sun due to these amazing qualities.\nIt can withstand rain or any other reason that the fabric becomes damp. Usually wool becomes heavy and completely useless after coming in contact with water.\nMerino or Peruvian Highland wool can withstand about thirty percent of water retention, and will still remain warm and comfortable without making you wet. The fibers of the cloth has a tendency to keep the water within the layers of the thread without making it a problem of the wearer.\nIf you use your wool poncho or wool capes for a whole day, and especially your wool socks, then you will need a wool fabric that will repel odor. Peruvian Highland or Merino wool is the perfect for just that purpose.\nEven hand knit yarn wool socks will dispel smell after coming in contact with open air as it kind of evaporates the residue without letting it settle in the thread. This is the simple trick that makes this wool incredibly useful for long outdoor work. Also, you will not have to wash it all the time, and washing over and over is not good for any kind of wool!\nEven though most wool is not good for washing regularly, Merino wool and Peruvian Highland Wool is good for washing and can even be washed in the machine depending on depending on design, and following the instructions on the tag. However, Highland & Merino Wools will not need to be washed that frequently because it repels smell, bacteria, and even regular stains. It does not shrink or pile easily like all other usual wool fabrics either.\nUnlike all other wool products, Peruvian Highland & Merino Wools keeps their shape for a much longer time because the fiber of their clothing is elastic, and comes back to its original shape after being stretched. Meaning the wearing and washing and drying will all be bearable for the Highland & Merino wool fabrics.\nYou do not have to worry about the wool losing its shape. It will outlive all of your other clothes in shape retention, however, ALWAYS carefully follow the written instructions for any garment you own for the best results.\nThis wool fabric protects the wearer from ultra violet rays of the sun. The fiber traps light and filters out ultraviolet rays of the sun upon contact. This makes it a great product for people who have sensitive skin and need to wear sunscreen when going out. The fiber is cool and has a way of maintaining your body temperature, it can be used as a skin protector on an unusually harsh and sunny day.\nThe most common advice that one hears about using wool is that you have to wear it on alternate days. Do not wear wool products every day over and over again, because the wool cannot withstand this much exposure. You are right; except if you are wearing Highland Peruvian Wool or Merino wool.\nYou can wear your hand knit wool ponchos, wool socks, wool scarves and wool capes as a uniform if you like and we can assure you that it will withstand all the wear and tear without any problems whatsoever. This is because the type of wool is highly tensile and does not break when under pressure.\nThese types of wool products look like lavish spending in the eyes of many people, but the truth is most people need sturdy wool products that will stay with them for many years. You can buy a usual wool scarf and see it fall apart in a month. In case of wool socks, it may be sooner!\nYou can buy a wool poncho or scarf that is handmade or hand knit using Peruvian HIghland or Merino wool and see it outlast most of your wardrobe.\nThese products are strong and they can withstand any and all problems. That is why we are such big fans of this yarn, and have decided to build a business around these type of amazing products. We want you to enjoy the real potential and use of these amazing products.\nHighland Peruvian wool and Merino wool are the best you can buy. Try yourself.\nHere at Terra Blossom, we promise you won’t be disappointed!", "domain": "design"}

DKO fittings all with metric threand and can be used with both high-pressure hoses and hydraulic tubing. Tubing, hoses, and spigots all require quality fittings. DKO fittings are used wherever there is powerful machinery with a hydraulic drive.\nVisually, the product is a cylindrical hollow tube with metric male thread on both sides and a hexagonal insert for easy screwing by means of a wrench.\nThe DKO series with a 24 degree taper sealing cone and metric thread, manufactured according to the German standard DIN 2353 , is divided into two types: DKOL – light series and DKOS – heavy series. Their characteristics depend on the characteristics of the transported substance and the operation of the hoses.\nHeavy series fittings DKOS similar to DKOL, but have a smaller diameter of nominal passage, a thicker wall and can be used in systems with high working pressure, with differential pressure and difficult operating conditions. It is also necessary to consider the difference in seating cones (diameter of the tube – diameter of the tip of the nipple) fittings light and heavy series. DKOL light series and DKOS heavy series fittings are not interchangeable!\nThe advantages of this type of fittings include long service life due to the manufacturing materials with low susceptibility to corrosion phenomena and high strength due to the constant fluid pressure. Alloyed, high-alloyed and stainless steel materials are used as a manufacturing material.\nDKOS fittings are available as a nipple with a captive nut, and as a nipple with metric male thread and a reverse sealing cone 24 degree, the cone sealing MBS ring. Differentiate between fittings also by the angle performance – stright, 45 Degree and 90 degrees.\nSophisticated design, a variety of geometric dimensions allow for fast and convenient installation work.

Steps, pathways, retaining walls, and patios— all known as “hardscapes”— add dimension, texture, and “curb appeal” to houses of all kinds.\nAdding a patio is an especially good choice for enhancing your outdoor living space. The material you choose for your patio should both look the way you want and perform the way you need it to. Do you want a sleek modern look? Perhaps rustic elegance is more your taste? Check through Pinterest and magazines to get an idea of looks that appeal to you, and that complement your home and its surroundings. You’ll also want to keep in mind which materials hold up better in certain climates, how easy they are to maintain, and how conducive they are to your family’s lifestyle.\nLet’s do a quick review of your options:\nSome consider it plain and low-end, but basic concrete makes a relatively inexpensive, durable, and versatile patio material. If you want something more modern with a distinctly upscale vibe, there are finishing processes for poured concrete that lend it the look of more expensive materials like flagstone or brick. Keep in mind, however, that concrete is prone to cracking in very cold climates. When combined with low temperatures and moisture, the surface can also develop “efflorescence”, a whitish residue that will need to be scrubbed or power-washed to avoid permanent discoloration. Special textures and tints are less durable than the poured concrete substrate, so plan on refinishing them every few years.\nThe beautiful textures and irregular shapes of natural stones like slate, sandstone, granite, and limestone are an enduring choice for outdoor patios. Cost associated with quarrying, transportation, and installation make it one of the more expensive options, but the overall effect is earthy and sophisticated, not to mention unique and high-end. Keep in mind that building a patio of natural stone is not a DIY project— professional installation is an absolute must. Even with professional installation, natural stone patios may show variances in texture, color, and thickness, and may have a tendency to crack and etch.\nBricks are manufactured in a wide variety of colors and finishes, and can be laid in circular, basketweave, herringbone, or other patterns. The combination of color, finish, and pattern create vastly different looks. Consider a professional bricklayer for this type of patio as well— you’ll be able to count on your installer to resolve any drainage issues and carefully prepare the area before laying the brick. Plan on cleaning and sealing the brick every 2–3 years to maintain its beauty and durability.\nPorcelain pavers are a newer option for building patterns that are becoming increasingly popular. Not only are they beautiful and versatile, porcelain pavers are non-porous, durable, weather-resistant, eco-friendly, and easy to clean and install. Most importantly, they are beautiful and can complement almost any existing look. Porcelain pavers retain the natural look of slate, granite, or sandstone without the permeability, unevenness, or difficulty of installation of quarried stone. They are UV, scratch and skid resistant, and don’t require special upkeep— they do not need to be sealed, and a light wash with regular household cleaner will keep them looking new for many years.\nConcrete pavers offer a wide range of colors, shapes, and textures, and are easier to install than poured concrete. Do-it-yourselfers will like their interlocking design, which eliminates the cracking that often occurs in freeze/thaw environments.", "domain": "design"}

The name stuck.\nArtyology is a space in which to wonder, create, experiment, tinker, make and build… and be free to translate dreams into reality.\nAt any one time, students might be:\n…carefully selecting and placing tiles/stones/marbles on a large collaborative mosaic table;\n…needle-felting creatures or wet-felting their miniature felt pod homes;\n…crocheting flowers to revamp classroom furnishings;\n…using clay to mould imagined clay gargoyles or microbes for the international ‘Stepping Up’ Ceramics Triennale, or leaves and vines to encircle the school;\n…designing and making costumes and props for their Class’ original performances within the end-of-year Learning Celebration Concert;\n…working in small groups storyboarding and producing stop-motion animations;\n…experimenting with different mediums, e.g. sculpting with wire and copper;\n…sorting and arranging natural materials collected during bushwalks (observing conservation principles) to sketch or transform into art works;\n…fusing a glass rainbow to demonstrate how light and colour interact;\n…tinkering to generate creations using recycled materials, or pulling things apart to see how they work and reconfiguring them to create something new.\nIn addition, students pursue creative inspirations and outlets in the broader community. Examples include:\n…black-and-white or digital photography at PhotoAccess;\n…printmaking at Megalo Print Studios and Gallery;\n…ceramics at Canberra Potters’ Society;\n…technical drawing and industrial design with Tom Skeehan;\n…viewing artworks and having a dialogue with the artist at the ANU’s Drill Hall Gallery.\nIn 2015, our 3 and 4 year old preschool students explored the National Arboretum Canberra, as part of Blue Gum’s ‘Community Classrooms’ program, visiting the emerging 100 forests again and again. Their discovery of different fungi and birds’ nests triggered their imagination and desire to create their own Forest of 1,000 Mushrooms – a seemingly impossible target! But their determination won through; with the help of the whole school community their dream became a reality – 1,000 unique clay mushrooms were created and appeared fleetingly at the Arboretum (as mushrooms do) before finding permanent homes around Canberra and beyond.\nThrough the ‘languages’ imbedded in the Arts, students are encouraged to be creative, independent thinkers and makers, who gain an understanding of the importance of risk-taking, perseverance and learning through and from mistakes. They are not simply replicating the work of others, but grappling with challenges and problem-solving as they explore and express their ideas, and ways to make their thinking visible. Sometimes, they will create individually and at other times in dialogue with others – both are important.\n“It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.” ~ Albert Einstein\nFurther information –\nSir Ken Robinson’s TED talk – Do schools kill creativity? https://www.ted.com/talks/ken_robinson_says_schools_kill_creativity?language=en\nSenator Mitch Fifield, Federal Minister for the Arts. Opening address to the National Visual Art Education Conference, 20 January 2016, Canberra. [extract]:\n“The arts is not some luxury. It’s not an add on. It’s not something that’s extra-curricular in an educational sense. The arts is something that should be core to primary and secondary school education… [T]here is inherent value in art. There is inherent value in the creative process. But the arts does provide students with the capacity and the tools and the mechanisms to understand the world around them. To interpret the world around them. And to express what it is that they feel and what they see. And these are skills for life. They’re skills for living… [I]f we want to have a real culture of innovation then we need to have creativity at the heart of that agenda and what we need to do is to put an A into STEM.

The environment needs to encourage children’s development. It’s how children feel positive and confident about their sense of self and their individual accomplishments. Their space needs to provide a balance of challenge, risk and safety.\nA positive environment should have expressive materials like paint, drawing materials, and dough or clay. The space should include open-ended materials that can be used in many different ways, so children can pretend, invent and create. Sensory experiences are also very nurturing and soothing for kids’ emotions. Water play, sand play, play dough, pouring materials – they all allow release of frustration. Construction materials, like building blocks, are also important and help develop a child’s fine and gross motor skills.\nThe environment needs to be based on the whole child: socially, emotionally, cognitively, and physically. This approach looks at the environment as a whole through the child’s eye. Ask yourself, “Are there materials so that the child can express his feelings? Are the materials challenging enough? Are there opportunities for fine and gross motor development?” Here are some useful tips:\n- Organization – Can the child “read” the environment to make sense of it? Is the space clear or chaotic? Labels or pictures help the child keep the environment orderly, which fosters independence in the child.\nAesthetics – Is there color, texture, soft materials? Not just primary colors. Having a wide range of colors and materials is more likely to appeal to children and will enable them to gain more intelligence about their world.\nAdaptability – Can the space or materials move and change to reflect the child’s current development, interests?\nCreating a positive environment also means giving a child individual attention and respect by acknowledging the child. Acknowledgement is more than simply complimenting the child. An adult can compliment a child by saying, “I love your art.” Acknowledgement, however, is when an adult takes notice of what a child has done, and says, “Look, you can do that now!”", "domain": "design"}

While the difference seems minor, a vehicle is a precision machine, and small variances could do a lot of damage over the long run if not compensated for. The Differential is responsible for this compensation in the driven wheels of a vehicle. It does so through a set of “spider” gears that mechanically transfer the torque from one wheel to the other. When one wheel needs to travel a smaller distance, it transfers some of its torque to the opposite wheel, which needs to travel the greater distance. This automated torque balancing action keeps the overall load on the engine and transmission steady, regardless of how sharp the vehicle is turning. In doing so, the gears in the differential experience heavy and varying loads, which leads to heat and wear on all the mechanical components. To ensure smooth operation, the gears need to mesh perfectly and stay well lubricated. That’s why they are bathed in thick, dense, gear oil that requires changing regularly to maintain its viscosity, friction reducing, and heat dissipation properties.\nDifferentials are normally designed for one of three types of operation: Open, Locked, or Limited Slip. A locking differential is designed to overcome the chief limitation of a standard open differential by essentially “locking” both wheels on an axle together as if on a common shaft. This forces both wheels to turn in unison, regardless of the traction (or lack thereof) available to either wheel individually. There are numerous variations such as manual and automatic locking designs, and several limited slip designs.\nAn open (or unlocked) differential always provides the same torque (rotational force) to both wheels on the same axle. So although the wheels can rotate at different speeds, they apply the same rotational force, even if one is entirely stationary, and the other spinning.\nBy contrast, a locked differential forces both left and right wheels on the same axle to rotate at the same speed under nearly all circumstances, regardless of traction differences. Therefore, each wheel can apply as much rotational force as the traction under it will allow, but the torques on each side-shaft can be unequal.\nA locked differential can provide a significant traction advantage over an open differential, but only when the traction under each wheel differs significantly.\nAll the above comments apply to central differentials as well as to those in each axle: full-time four-wheel-drive (often called “All Wheel Drive”) vehicles have three differentials, one in each axle, and a central one incorporated into the transfer case.\nLimited Slip differentials are considered a compromise between a standard differential and a locking differential because they operate more smoothly, and they do direct some extra torque to the wheel with the most traction compared to a standard differential, but they are not capable of 100% lockup.\nTraction Control systems are also used in many modern vehicles either in addition to, or as a replacement of, a locking differential. This is not in fact a differential lock, but operates at each wheel. Sensors monitor wheel speeds, and if one is rotating significantly faster than the other the traction control system momentarily applies braking to the slipping wheel. This transfers more power to the wheel with traction by employing the open differential. If all drive wheels lose traction, then throttle control may be automatically applied. Electronic traction control systems are usually integrated with anti-lock braking systems, which have a similar braking action and use many of the same components.\nDifferential Service Recommendations\nMost vehicle manufacturers recommend that the differential fluid be changed every 50,000 Km to 70,000 Km. We recommend even more frequently if the vehicle is used for towing or other heavy workloads. It is a messy job, and should be done by a licensed mechanic. The fluid will have to be disposed of properly, you may need new gaskets or seals, and the parts inside the differential housing will need to be wiped down so that any contaminants from the old fluid aren’t transferred to the new. Plus, the differential is underneath the vehicle so it will need to be lifted on a hoist for clear access.\nDuring a differential service, our experienced technicians will diagnose any potential problems before they become significant. They can measure the float, run a gear pattern, set the preload, and inspect the axle and pinion bearings and seals. They’ll also inspect and make adjustments to any positive traction mechanisms to ensure they are optimized throughout the life of the vehicle. They can also repair any leaks that could lead to fluid loss and catastrophic failure of the differential.\nYou’ve had the Ring and Pinion Gear Set in your Differential Replaced – Now What?\nWhen you’ve had a new ring and pinion gear set installed in your differential, we highly recommend that you follow these break-in procedures to ensure the best performance and longevity from your vehicle.\nAfter driving the first 20 to 30 Km, stop and let the differential cool down. Keep the vehicle at speeds below 100 KPH for the first 150 Km. We also recommend putting at least 750 Km on the new gear set before heavy usage such as towing. During the first 60 Km of heavy usage it helps to go about 20 Km at a time, then stopping to let the differential cool for 15 minutes before continuing. This is necessary because not all of the gear tooth surface is making contact until it’s heavily loaded. When loaded, the teeth flex to make more complete contact and cause the previously unloaded portion of the teeth to touch and become work-hardened. All of this may seem paranoid but it is very easy to damage new ring and pinion gears through overloading before the teeth are broken in. If you take it easy on a new gear set and keep the differential full of clean, high quality oil, it will last a lot longer.\nBob’s Driveline Specializes in the Following Differential Services:\n- Maintenance & Adjustments\n- Repair Damage\n- Change Gear Ratios\n- Upgrade Torque Capacity\n- Align Drive Angles\n- Custom Design and Build\nVisit Bob’s Driveline for all of your Differential Repairs, Service & Maintenance.

This was made possible by manufacturing stronger structures that look like natural forms. Organic structures are becoming popular in the design field especially after the recent advancements in Additive Manufacturing (AM), where the material is only added where needed, to carry stresses and perform specific functions\nSME Toronto Chapter 26 explored this niche market by visiting Anubis 3D, located in Mississauga, Ontario. Tharwat Fouad, founder of Anubis 3D, explained his journey of transformation in the Additive Manufacturing industry, from a focus on prototyping (which he considers the tip of the iceberg), to using AM technologies to achieve more efficient batching and customization of unique parts. Tharwat Fouad explained “Anubis 3D mainly uses SLS technology, and focuses on the area of material handling end of arm tools.”\nThe design lead, Mr. Joshua McCaugan, uses software called Inspire® by Altair, to design End of Arms (EoA) tools. The design team has nearly unrestricted freedom to design a part in order to optimize its functionality.\nWhen building parts in an additive manner, new capabilities are enabled. First, by carefully controlling the fabrication of each layer, it is possible to fabricate functional mechanisms with a much simplified supply chain. By ensuring that clearances between links are adequate, revolving or translational joints can be created. Also, mechanisms or parts can be organically designed, that are topologically optimized to reduce weight and optimized for the function; rather than for the purpose of finding suitable components from standard engineering shapes such as beams and channels.\nA Multi-Functional device used as an injection moulding End of Arm (EOA) gripper for an automotive manufacturer is shown above. Additive Manufacturing of organic-design inspired EoA Tooling provides the following powerful capabilities to ANUBIS 3D solutions.\n- Integration of Functions: Combines gripping with suction cups\n- Light-weighting: Reduces weight by 60% in the above part\n- Material grading and different part properties: using two different materials for different properties such as high erosion resistance on functional surfaces and high toughness in core body parts\n- Light weight quick connect with integrated vacuum channel for fast change over and mold set up. It takes 10 seconds to replace the tool\n- A lightweight organic structure, engineered for uniform stress distribution, maximum stiffness with minimum material weight\n- A complex design that provides more reliable components\nOther Benefits of Organic Shapes:\n- Reduction of stress concentrations\n- Possible enhancement of fatigue performance due to homogeneous stress distribution\n- Reduction of number of parts and joints due to combination of organic shapes with additive manufacturing of complex geometries\n- Organic shapes seem to be favorable in terms of design for additive manufacturing because low volume structural elements do not build up high thermal stresses in the process as exemplary studies show\n- Modern, fascinating and aesthetic structures\nUsing topology optimization an effective structure is calculated that transmits forces throughout the structure without using unnecessary diversion routes. In so doing, the material is used in the most effective way and lightweight designs can be generated that most often have an organic shape. Additionally, by avoiding force redirection, stress concentrations can be significantly reduced, which decreases strength requirements on the material and is expected to increase fatigue performance. The drawbacks of organic shapes are mostly due to the lack of knowledge in their application.\nLimitations of the technology:\n- Need for advanced CAE methods as well as experienced and well-trained application engineers\n- Possible loss in robustness due to uncertainties when optimization methods are not applied with care and reasonable engineering interpretation\n- High complexity and diversity of design solutions/organic shapes – leads to drawbacks in development cost, evaluation capacity and re-usability of design solutions\n- Best practice guidelines for organic shapes and respective complex geometries need to be developed further\nANUBIS 3D’s decision to adopt the SLS technology ecosystem; was driven by their requirement to realize organic structural concepts, that optimize the tool’s stress distribution throughout an integrated and light-weighted design.

They are the buttons, links, or any other form of interactive element that prompt the user to take a specific action. These actions could range from signing up for a service, making a purchase, downloading an app, or filling out a form. CTAs play a vital role in guiding the user towards the intended conversion, making them an essential component of user experience (UX) design.\nHere are some best practices for designing effective CTAs:\n- Make them prominent: CTAs should be easily noticeable and stand out from the rest of the interface. The use of contrasting colors, larger font sizes, and clear labeling can help achieve this.\n- Keep them simple: CTAs should have a clear and concise message that conveys the action the user will take. Avoid using technical jargon or convoluted language.\n- Place them strategically: CTAs should be placed in locations where users are likely to see them, such as near the main content or at the bottom of the page.\n- Test and iterate: A/B testing is a valuable tool for determining the effectiveness of different CTA designs. Iterating and making changes based on test results can help improve conversion rates.\n- Make them actionable: CTAs should inspire a sense of urgency and immediacy. Phrases such as “Get started now” or “Download today” can help create a sense of urgency.\nIn conclusion, CTAs are a critical component of UI design and play a significant role in guiding the user towards the intended conversion. By following these best practices, designers can create effective and compelling CTAs that improve the overall user experience.", "domain": "design"}

The show provided an in-depth look at the recent work of five artists: JeanAnn Dabb, Karen Kettering Dimit, Cynthia Fisher, Yulia Hanansen, and Rachel Sager Lynch. Five distinct voices, all committed to pursuing their individual investigations of the world in the language of mosaics.\nFor those who couldn’t make the trip, Nancie Mills Pipgras provides an excellent overview of the show with splendid photos on the website of Mosaic Art Now (http://www.mosaicartnow.com/2012/07/terra-incognita/). Additional information on the exhibition can be found at www.pct.edu/gallery\n|Miss Cucuteni 2011, one of several of Karen Kettering Dimit's Subway Goddesses,\ngreets gallery visitors. On the near wall, five mosaics\nfrom her series, NYC Water Towers: A Mosaic \"Sketchbook\"\nThe show was unified by a guiding sensibility in that each artist used the medium of mosaics to explore worlds unknown—whether near (as in a rarely visited tract of forest or an overlooked facet of the urban landscape) or far (as seen in representations of historic or imagined maps, the subterranean earth, undersea environments, and outer space).\n|Yulia Hanansen explores galaxies, distant stars, and space travel in the language of mosaics.\n|In these small-format mosaics Hanansen uses rippled and layered glass and signature feather-shaped cuts to convey a cosmos teeming with energy and brilliant color.\nEvery work in the exhibit had the power of specificity, a meaning that transcended the virtuoso handling of color and texture and referenced a particular time or place or cultural current. The art was brave, original, fully thought out, and deeply expressive. There was plenty of variety in the formats: two- and three-dimensional work, sculpture that used mosaic only in part, interesting use of negative space. It was fun to read the show for each artist’s self-professed wonky fascination with a topic of interest: archeology and anthropology, geology, geography and cartography, cosmic forces and scientific achievement, urban architecture, ancient vs. pop culture, and the natural environment. Because each mosaicist was invited to display a small body of work, you could see her engagement with a theme over time and get a good sense of what makes her work distinctive and important.\nJeanAnn Dabb uses a variety of innovative formats to explore themes of geology and archeology. Her mosaics come alive with dramatic textures, light and shadow.\n|Fossils, smalti, and stone were combined to magnificent effect in this Dabb mosaic,\nLower Bridger Formation: Howard's Beach, a detail of which is pictured here.\n|Rachel Sager Lynch's mosaics are rich with exquisitely modulated color and texture, as in\nA Color Wheel: From Whitsett to Leiper's Fork.\nThe mosaics were also simply gorgeous—teeming with color and abundant with a rich palette of materials, sensuous, touchable. I was sometimes transfixed by the color or texture of single stone or a single row of tesserae, a testament to the power of a finely made mosaic to draw you close. Traditional mosaic materials like glass, smalti, stone, marble, and ceramic were represented, as well as metals, fossils, shells, gemlike minerals, coal, repurposed industrial parts, and unusual found objects. Everywhere I looked I saw technical prowess as demonstrated by interesting juxtapositions and skillful transitions. And yet despite the ambition of each mosaic, the bold choices, there was also a welcome restraint, a sense of control. No “irrational exuberance” here, and the whole exhibit was better for it.\n|Cynthia Fisher's Textures, Fall demonstrates her powers of close observation and her ability\nto reconstruct her impressions in jazz-inflected, color-infused mosaics that convey the variety and poetic beauty of her Massachusetts landscape.\n|In My World Fisher orchestrates the elements of landscape and atmosphere in a\nstunning mosaic composition that captures a particular moment in time.\nThe gallery configuration made for an exceptional viewing experience. The spacious floor plan, the signage, the lighting, even the background music all elevated the show. The gallery welcomed visitors with a brief video presentation narrated by JeanAnn Dabb on the history of mosaics and an overview of materials and techniques. This, along with a printed exhibition guide, helped those new to contemporary mosaics better understand and appreciate the art.\nMosaicists everywhere owe a huge debt to Karen Kettering Dimit for scoping out the opportunity at Penn College and for the thoughtful and sensitive way she and Lynch conceived and curated the show. It all came together in a first-rate slice of what's happening in American mosaics.

It’s where you game, where you stream or watch others’ streams, and where you set up your gaming keyboard and other fancy peripherals. Plus, if you’re one of the many folks who now permanently work from home, it might very well be your workstation as well!\nThat means a gaming desk that’s cluttered, awkwardly arranged, or otherwise suboptimal can be a major drag on big parts of your life. So don’t accept less than you deserve! Up ahead, we’ll show you eight top tips for maximizing your gaming desk setup.\nStart by visualizing your ideal desk setup.\nThe first step is to consider what you want from your gaming desk. Think about:\n- What works about your current setup and what could be improved\n- Features of the room, such as its size and number of outlets\n- Gaming peripherals (both ones you use now and ones you might want in the future)\n- The aesthetic you want for your gaming setup\nLet these guide you as you create or revamp your gaming desk arrangement. It’s all about finding what creates the gaming experience you want!\nDecide whether your current desk meets your needs.\nYour desk is the physical foundation of your gaming setup, so it’s crucial to have one that works for you. Here are some possibilities to think about:\n- Need more desktop space, but don’t have a lot of room? A corner desk could be ideal for maximizing your available space.\n- Looking for more storage? Pick a desk with drawers or other built-in storage space.\n- Need some help with your cable management? Many desks (and gaming desks, in particular) now offer built-in cord management features.\n- Want to move a little more while you’re gaming or working? Consider getting an adjustable sit-stand desk.\nElevate your monitors for a more comfortable viewing experience.\nKeeping your monitors elevated can be helpful for your posture and health, especially when it comes to avoiding the dreaded “tech neck.” Many gaming desks include built-in monitor stands with support for one, two, or even three monitors. These stands are often adjustable, so you can customize the monitor’s height according to your own stature and preferences.\nAlternatively, think about exploring monitor mounting options like swivel desk mounts and wall mounts. These can be excellent choices for mounting a monitor when you need a lot of flexibility and the ability to reposition your display at will.\nPlan your cable management from the beginning.\nLeaving cable management until last is a good way to end up with an annoying tangle of cords, so save yourself the annoyance by coming up with a cable management plan. It doesn’t have to be complicated. Here are a few basic pointers:\n- Use wireless peripherals to minimize cables as much as you can.\n- Create a place to store and organize cables when you’re not using them.\n- Consider using clips and raceways to control and consolidate cable runs.\n- Choose an outlet strip that includes USB chargers for an all-in-one power source.\nCreate a place for everything.\nYou’ll have a much easier time keeping your gaming desk manageable if everything has a permanent home. Little extras like a headphone stand or a dish for pens and spare change can make a real difference in how organized your desk feels.\nThis is especially important if your gaming desk needs room for extra peripherals. Got a streaming setup with ring light, microphone, and mixer? Planning to add a racing wheel, fight stick, or other specialty controllers? Make a space for all of it, even if it won’t be on the desk at all times.\nDon’t use your desk to store unrelated items.\nThe flip side of the previous tip is that your desk shouldn’t be a general storage space. A good rule of thumb is that it shouldn’t be stored there if you never actually use it at your desk. Paperwork, phone accessories, books (unless you read at your desk) — if you’re not using it, get it outta there!\nYes, finding a place for all of this stuff can be a pain, but dealing with it now is better than enduring the constant stress of a messy desk. Use this as an opportunity to think about installing shelves, purchasing new storage gear, and anything else that could improve your gaming space.\nMake it easy to keep things clean.\nVarious kinds of trash and junk can pile up on your desk surprisingly fast. To keep things clean, step one is adding a nearby wastebasket will make sure you no longer have an excuse to let things pile up! If you’ve got nosy pets, grab a wastebasket with a lid that seals.\nKeeping a few cleaning supplies nearby will also make it easier to touch up your desk as needed. A basic gentle cleaner and some wet wipes will take you pretty far. Once you have the supplies at hand, get into the habit of doing a regular cleaning once or twice a week.\nGrab a cooling pad if you’ll be gaming on a laptop.\nGaming laptops pack a lot of power into a small form factor — but that can lead to heat problems that slow down your gaming performance. That’s why many gaming laptop owners equip their gaming desks with laptop cooling pads. Each of these pads has one or more small fans inside that help cool your computer when your processor and/or graphics card are running a little too hot.\nTake a look at the wide variety of cooling pads available and find one that’s right for you. From ergonomic features like built-in stands that elevate your laptop to fun stuff like RGB lights, there’s something for everybody in the world of laptop pads!\nAll this might seem like a lot of work, but we promise it’s manageable if you take it a step at a time. And if you let yourself get creative, it can even be enjoyable! Most importantly, the handful of hours you put into this will pay off with a desk setup that serves you well for hundreds of golden gaming hours.", "domain": "design"}

But ultimately, you’ll have to make your choice depending on how you want to decorate your Christmas tree.\nHere are the most common LED string light types and bulbs you’ll across online.\nLED Mini Light Strings\nAlso known as M5 LED lights, these lights were originally designed to look like the traditional incandescent lights. They come in a myriad of styles but their basic design resembles traditional lights.\nLED Wide Angle Mini Lights\nThese are a little different from Mini lights, but they serve the same purpose. Often called polka-dot lights, the wide-angle LED lights disperse colorful lights in wide, circular patterns instead of straight lines.\nLED C6 Light Strings\nC6 light strings, often referred to as strawberry lights, come with ¾-inch LED bulbs permanently fixed to a wire. They are much brighter and larger than Mini lights and can be used both outdoors and indoors.\nLED C7 Light Strings\nLED C7 lights are the closest alternative to traditional outdoor Christmas lights. They are attached permanently to a wire and are ideally for decorating Christmas trees indoors.\nChristmas LED C9 Light Bulbs\nThese lights are quite large compared to other options. They are much brighter than most and make a great choice when used outdoors. However, they can also be used indoor, particularly in large rooms.\nLED G12 Christmas Berry Lights\nThese come in the shape of berries and are a perfect solution for small Christmas trees or wreaths. The lights are permanently fixed to a string, and lots of people prefer them over cone-shaped lights.\nBattery Operated LED String Lights\nBattery operated lights make it easy to set up a Christmas tree from anywhere. You’ll not need to be closer to the electricity source in order to decorate a Christmas tree. And If you like your setup without visible cords, these should be your best choice.\nNet LED Lights\nNet LED lights come in the form of a net. Decorating your tree with these lights is a lot easier, as all you need to do is to wrap them around your Christmas tree and you have a beautiful setup in place. They also have a more uniform look than most choices out there.\nFactors to Consider When Choosing Christmas Tree LED Lights\nHow Many Christmas Lights Do You Need?\nThe rule of thumb when buying Christmas tree lights is to get about 100-150 mini lights for approximately one foot of your tree. If you go with 100, you’ll have more room to add decorations and the foliage will be visible. If you choose to go with 150, you’ll have a strong twinkling effect with little space for more decoration.\nWhen thinking of how many strands you need, your personal preference will be the deciding factor. However, bulb spacing and string strength are crucial factors that you can’t overlook. LED light strings with wide spaces are ideal on slender posts or branches. Strings with fewer spaces are ideal for wrapping over your Christmas tree. Strings that come with 4-inch bulb spacing are best used outdoor because they shine brighter.\nWhich Bulb Color?\nSome people prefer white lights, while others prefer blue or multi colored lights. However, it’s important to note that white gives a very modern look while multicolored lights are best used to enhance the mood and ambience of the festive period.\nDo You Need a Remote Control?\nWould you like to control your lights with a remote device? If so, choose a model that comes with a remote control. It simplifies the task of operating your LED string lights since it can operate them with convenience.\nHowever, it’s crucial to check the amount of distance a given remote control covers. The device will be of no use if you have to be very closer to your string lights.\nDetermine Your Lighting Budget\nThe price of LED lights depends on the length of the string, the quality, size of the bulbs and the type of brand. But most light strings don’t cost a fortune so there should be no reason why you can’t decorate your Christmas tree to brighten up your surroundings.\nChristmas is the time to be merry and bond with family and friends you’ve not seen for some time. If you’re looking to improve the mood and ambiance of your home during Christmas, LED lights can do the magic for you.\nAnd there’s simply no better way of revving up the Christmas spirit than decorating your Christmas tree with shiny, twinkling LED lights. The 10 best picks above are some of the best LED string lights on the market for the 2018/19 festive season.\nWe hope you’ll find the perfect option for decorating your Christmas tree before the festive period kicks in.", "domain": "design"}

We were initially approached about the production of a standard drive order, but after consulting with the team at EC, we pitched the idea of utilizing a customized mold of a polar bear to communicate the content loaded onto the drives more effectively.\nThe creation of a custom mold typically has a few steps. We ask that the client submits a series of reference images for us to draw from thematically. In this case, Environment Canada wanted to incorporate a clearly visible outline of a polar bear – something akin to the beautiful Inuit style art that graces some of Canada’s national museums, but also something that was clearly identifiable and not abstract. We settled on 5 different reference images that we researched. The 5 qualified as images that we like to call “dimension-able designs” – meaning, that they fall within the parameters of being able to incorporate into a CAD program and create a mold that would fit universally into all USB ports. This is a key step. Creating a mold that is too wide can hinder the use of a even a single user, considering that most computers have at least 2-3 USB ports that are in almost all cases virtually on top of each other. Secondly, the client wanted to utilize a material that was comparable to the look and feel of an iPod – a cool white plastic.\nAfter presenting the 5 CAD designs, the client chose the subtle outline shown here. We fabricated and completed production in 7 days, and then loaded over 1.6 GB (a combination of multilingual videos and documentation) of content in 48 hours on 1500 drives for delivery to the CITES conference in less than 2 weeks from the beginning of production.\nConsidering a custom drive for your organization, business, or upcoming event?

Leaving the edges unpainted suggests that the work can, but doesn’t have to, be framed. Some artists never paint to the edge of the canvas. They even leave an unpainted border around the front of the painting. It all depends on the artist. Personally I don’t like to see a painting where the subject matter has been painted on the sides. It reminds me of those stretched canvas prints you buy at your local store for $20. I don’t like my paintings to look like wallpapers – so I usually don’t paint the sides of the canvas.)\nBack to the framing:\nIn any case, you don’t need to frame your stretched canvas painting. In fact, you can create a gallery wall where you can display all kinds of paintings: framed and unframed. It all depends on your taste.\nWhen thinking about framing your artwork, consider the following questions:\n- Is this a stretched canvas painting?\n- How big is the canvas?\n- If I’m purchasing it for a specific wall, will it fit after I frame it? How much does the frame add to the size of the painting?\n- How much am I ready to spend on framing? What are the linen liners for the painting and why are they used? (Linen liners are the canvas version of the mat. Like mats, linen liners are often used to add a decorative accent to the painting.)\nI prefer to frame all of my paintings. If you’re thinking about getting your art framed, you might want to shop around for a good quality and reasonably priced frame. The frames can be expensive, depending on the quality and make. Sometimes you’ll pay more for the frame than you will for your smaller size painting.\nTake a look at some differences between framed and unframed art work.\nWritten by Vedrana Vodopivec", "domain": "design"}

Their plates, glassware, and serving pieces reflect their different collecting styles (and ages) — and here are their choices:\nTerry’s table is traditional. It starts with blue and white porcelain plates in the Floral pattern introduced by Spode in the 1830s. The sterling silver flatware was a wedding gift to a family member just after World War I. The pattern is Trianon. Pieces are marked “I.S. & Co.,” the mark of the International Silver Co., and the patent date, 1921. The water goblet is pressed glass from the 1880s. The silver-plated figural napkin ring, made about 1880, is decorated with Japanese fans.\nTerry bought the sterling silver open salt with a cobalt blue glass liner while on her honeymoon. It was made in England in the 1830s. She paired it with a Victorian silver salt spoon and a Georgian-style pepper shaker. Serving pieces include a Victorian silver ladle and a Georgian long-handle stuffing spoon, both with English hallmarks, a hefty Victorian silver cold meat fork, and a silver fruit spoon made in the early 1800s that was engraved and gold washed during the Victorian era. The gravy dish, cover and underplate are cobalt blue porcelain decorated with gold chinoiserie and a bamboo-shaped handle. It was made by the Ott & Brewer Co., which operated Trenton, N.J., from 1871 to 1892. Terry also uses a cut glass relish dish from the American Brilliant Period.\nKim Kovel favors a midcentury tablescape. The dinnerware was designed by Eva Zeisel (1906–2011) for Hall China Co. The organic Tomorrow’s Classic set of shapes is one of Zeisel’s most popular. The plate pattern is Dawn, 1952, and the butter dish and vase are Fantasy, 1952–57. Water goblets are Block Crystal’s Watercolor-Green pattern from 1984. Classic Greek and Roman architecture is reflected in Kim’s stainless steel flatware with handles in the shapes of flattened columns—Doric capitals for spoons, Ionic for knives and Corinthian for forks. They were designed in 1992 by architect Robert Venturi for SwidPowell (a studio founded in 1982 that commissions international architects to design tabletop pieces) and made by Reed & Barton Co. Also reflecting columns are the candlesticks, designed by Ettore Sottsass (1917–2007) for Baccarat. They’re called Bougeoir Nusku from Baccarat’s 2002 Rencontre Collection. The backdrop is a tablecloth woven in the 1950s.\nFrom Kovel’s Komments", "domain": "design"}

Stipa gigantea is a herbaceous perennial of which the most distinguishing feature is its size, as it can reach impressive heights of 5 to 7 feet (1.5 to 2.1 meters) with a similar spread. The clumping nature of this grass creates an attractive fountain-like form, with arching, slender, and feathery panicles that sway gracefully in the wind. The inflorescences emerge in late spring or early summer, presenting a golden hue that illuminates the landscape, hence its common name “Golden Oat grass.”\nIn the world of garden plants, Stipa gigantea stands tall both literally and figuratively. Commonly known as Giant Feather Grass or Golden Oat grass, this magnificent ornamental grass hails from the Mediterranean and Southwest Asia, captivating gardeners and landscape enthusiasts with its elegant appearance and adaptability. Standing out among its contemporaries, Stipa gigantea has become a favored choice for those seeking to add drama, movement, and grace to their outdoor spaces.\nStipa gigantea is a herbaceous perennial grass belonging to the Poaceae family. Its most distinguishing feature is its size, as it can reach impressive heights of 5 to 7 feet (1.5 to 2.1 meters) with a similar spread. The clumping nature of this grass creates an attractive fountain-like form, with arching, slender, and feathery panicles that sway gracefully in the wind. The inflorescences emerge in late spring or early summer, presenting a golden hue that illuminates the landscape, hence its common name “Golden Oats.”\nOne of the most appealing aspects of Stipa gigantea is its adaptability to various growing conditions. It thrives in full sun but can tolerate some light shade, making it a versatile addition to a wide range of garden styles. As for soil preferences, this grass is not too demanding, as long as the soil is well-draining. It can handle sandy, loamy, or clay soils, but it dislikes excessive moisture, so avoiding waterlogged areas is essential.\nOnce established, Stipa gigantea is relatively low-maintenance, needing minimal watering and fertilization. This attribute makes it an excellent choice for xeriscaping and sustainable garden designs, where water conservation is a priority.\nStipa gigantea’s impressive size and graceful movement make it a focal point in any garden or landscape design. Its verticality allows it to be used as a striking backdrop for smaller plants, while its airy, transparent structure creates a sense of lightness and depth. Planted in groups or as a solitary specimen, this grass can enhance the overall aesthetic and provide year-round interest, as the golden panicles age to a lovely straw color in autumn and persist through winter.\nIn larger landscapes, Stipa gigantea can be effectively incorporated into meadow or prairie-style plantings, where its flowing forms mimic the natural rhythm of the wild. Moreover, it complements contemporary and modern gardens by adding a touch of wildness and movement amidst structured elements.\nThe versatility of Stipa gigantea lies not only in its adaptability to different growing conditions but also in its ability to harmonize with a wide array of companion plants. It forms beautiful contrasts when planted alongside bold, colorful perennials such as Salvia, Echinacea, or Kniphofia. The soft, feathery texture of the grass juxtaposed with the solid, vibrant blooms creates a visually arresting display.\nFor a more subdued and tranquil palette, Stipa gigantea pairs gracefully with lavender, catmint, or Russian sage. These combinations exude a sense of serenity and relaxation while still showcasing the striking silhouette of the grass.\nIn late winter or early spring, Stipa gigantea benefits from cutting back its old foliage to make way for the fresh growth of the new season. This trim also helps maintain the grass’s tidy appearance. During the growing season, deadheading the spent panicles prevents self-seeding and allows the plant’s beauty to shine unhindered.\nStipa gigantea is a true testament to the allure of ornamental grasses in the garden. With its towering height, graceful form, and golden inflorescences, this impressive grass adds an ethereal charm to any landscape. Its adaptability, low-maintenance nature, and ability to blend effortlessly with other plants make it a beloved choice among gardeners seeking a touch of elegance and movement in their outdoor sanctuaries. Whether used as a focal point, a companion to perennials, or part of a wild meadow planting, Stipa gigantea is sure to captivate and inspire all who encounter its graceful beauty", "domain": "design"}

This early phase was dominated by brown, red and black lacquers, which were usually painted or had an inlaid decoration. Red lacquer with carved decorations dominated during the Qing Dynasty, however, use of other colours continued.\nLacquer is a resin collected from the trunk of the rhus vernicifera, which grows mainly in southern India. This liquid, which has the ability to dry quickly even in a humid atmosphere, is cleaned and painted easily and waterproofs and protects the surface of the articles on which it is spread. The liquid lacquer is painted in successive layers onto a wooden, clay or fabric core in order to create the object that the artist is constructing. Often more than a hundred layers of lacquer are required to create an object in a basic colour. Frequently, though, different colours are used alternately, so that, with suitable engraving, a two-colour or multi-coloured surface is achieved.", "domain": "design"}

Fashion designer and journalist Renee Cafaro is well aware of these gaps in the fashion industry, which is why she has committed to providing high-quality clothes for plus sizes 16–32. With RCA Public Label, Renee brings a ready-to-wear line that serves the style needs of curvy women.\nRCA Public Label is the debut ready-to-wear brand under the Renee Cafaro Atelier umbrella. Clothes from this label are proudly New York City-made. Renee makes it along with her team of BIPOC New Yorkers. Aiming to be more sustainable in their practice and revitalize the garment industry, all materials are purchased locally. From materials, patterns, to production, every aspect of the garments is made in New York. Local artisans are also fairly compensated for their work.\nIn 2009, Renee Cafaro dreamed of a dress that was stylish, versatile, and sexy. While her thinner friends had a lot of options, she barely had anything that would fit the bill. Finally, after years on the backburner, Renee’s dream dress was brought to life.\nThe designer shared, “I call it the Convertible Dress because it truly does it all! The dress has an adjustable hemline and straps, which means you can wear the dress in 6 ways. It also has built-in support for DDD+ cups with the incorporated moisture-wicking flat-packing bra.”\nThe Convertible Dress is so versatile and unique that RCA Public Label has filed a patent for the dress. Renee explained, “I put a lot of thought into the functional details of the dress. There are pockets and a hidden segment so you can add length to the back of the skirt. I have received a lot of feedback from satisfied customers saying they love this dress’s fit and craftsmanship. They call it a game-changer, and I could not be happier that they love this dress as much as I do.”\nThe Convertible Dress is available in three different iterations at RCA Public Label. The Red Convertible Dress is for ladies who want to make a bold statement with their outfits. This is made specifically for DDD to H cups. Women looking for a more appropriate dress for the festive season can go for the Velvet Sequin Convertible Dress. Made with black stretch lightweight velvet and covered in sequins, this dress is perfect for parties all year round. Finally, the Missy Convertible Dress features the same designs but is for women with smaller curves.\nRenee Cafaro is fighting for plus-size consumers to have better clothing options. With RCA Public Label, she hopes that plus-size women will start to invest more in high-quality and locally made wardrobe classics that will stay in style for years to come.\n“Most of the clothes available on the market for plus-sized individuals seem to fall into the extremes of clubby, fast-fashion or frumpy,” Renee said, “And I want to provide women with an option that will make them feel sexy and classy.”\nRCA Public Label is the ready-to-wear brand of plus-size clothing under Renee Cafaro Atelier. Their patent-pending Convertible Dress is available in several sizes. For more information, you can visit their official website or follow them on Instagram.", "domain": "design"}

This means you won’t see any of your stitches from the outside of your robe.)\nPin it in place, and sew the pocket to the lining. You can use a simple running stitch for this. Be sure to leave the top seam unstitched! And voila, you have a pocket.\n- A simple pocket if you have pocket holes\nSome robes have openings in the seams that allow you to reach into the pocket of your pants. But not everyone wears pants with their robes, so if you’d like to make a pocket for these robes, you can do so like this:\nCut a piece of fabric that’s the width of the pocket opening, and twice as long. Flip over the ends and iron them flat. Fold the piece of fabric in half.\nOne side of the fabric will be a fold that doesn’t need stitching. The side opposite that will be your ironed edge. Ignore both those edges and sew the other two edges together with a running stitch. So in this photo, that’s the top and bottom of my square.\nPin the pocket you’ve made to the inside of the opening in your robes, like a little pouch. With a running stitch or over stitch, sew the ironed ends of the pocket to the pocket-hole of your robes. Voila, you have a pocket!\nThere are obviously much more advanced ways to do this – you can rip the seams on your robes and insert pockets; you can make pockets using a sewing machine; you can make differently sized and shaped pockets. But if you just need a little something to stow your keys and a granola bar, and your sewing skills are next to none, this is one you can go!", "domain": "design"}

Particular focus will be on residential and light commercial building applications.\nVarious aspects of DC electrical systems have been studied. These analyses suggest that multiple benefits could be achieved from using DC:\n- Easier and more-efficient integration with renewable sources and electric vehicles\n- Improved efficiency and control of motors, appliances, electronics, and other technologies\n- Improved reliability at a lower capital cost\n- Elimination of AC power quality problems\n- Easier integration of electricity storage (batteries, capacitors)\n- A unique opportunity for worldwide interoperability, voltage, and connector standards\nFor ZNE buildings, the use of DC power has the potential to reduce the amount of on-site generation necessary, facilitate the use of energy storage, and more easily tie to electric vehicles, while saving energy lost in power conversions.\nThis collaborative project will significantly expand knowledge for the various applications of DC power, focusing on new residential construction and residential subdivisions, as well as retrofits of residential and commercial buildings, including design of AC-DC hybrid systems.\nThe project will be organized in two phases:\n- The first phase will interview stakeholders and analyze available state, national, and international information on DC power in buildings and microgrid applications. The project team will interview customers and conduct a workshop with stakeholders, including end-users, designers, builders, industry, and utilities to understand industry and customer choices, barriers, and codes, and policy needs for DC systems. A summary report from the first phase of the project will provide a comprehensive collection of public data and analysis of existing DC buildings, subdivisions, communities, and other applications. It will also identify appropriate end-use applications for DC power, barriers to adoption of DC power, codes and standards issues, and an assessment of customer, builder, and utility acceptance of DC systems.\n- The second phase will use the information from the first phase to optimize the design and evaluate the costs, benefits, or drawbacks of DC and AC-DC hybrid systems for residential and commercial zero net energy buildings, both for new construction and retrofit. The project team will develop design templates for DC or AC-DC hybrid systems, and analyze the relative efficiencies using manufacturer’s published efficiency data and/or limited lab evaluations. Savings and costs for key end use applications for DC power (e.g., motors, adjustable-speed drives, lighting, electronics, and plug loads) will be estimated. The team will then develop case studies describing other demonstration results. The project findings will summarize the technical and economic feasibility, barriers, market acceptance, reliability, and operational advantages for DC and AC-DC hybrid systems for buildings, subdivisions, and communities.", "domain": "design"}

It serves as a crucial link between devices in a variety of applications, ranging from telecommunications to aerospace. Understanding the diverse mounting methods available for SMA connectors is essential for optimizing their use within different contexts. Let’s delve into the various mounting options: cable connection, PCB mount, and panel mount.\nConnecting SMA connectors to cables can be accomplished through soldering or compression methods. Soldering involves establishing a connection between the connector’s contact and the center conductor of the cable using a soldering process. On the other hand, the compression method involves not only soldering the connector contact to the center conductor but also applying compression to firmly secure the cable within the connector. Compression is particularly efficient, making it a preferred choice for flexible cables. Conversely, soldering is typically employed with semi-flexible cables due to their design and characteristics.\nIntegrating SMA connectors into printed circuit boards (PCBs) offers two primary mounting options: through-hole and surface-mount technology (SMT). These connectors are often equipped with gold or tin plating to facilitate the soldering process. Through-hole mounting entails inserting the connector’s leads through holes in the PCB and soldering them on the opposite side, ensuring a robust connection. Alternatively, surface-mount SMA connectors are directly affixed to the PCB’s surface using solder paste and reflow soldering techniques. This approach supports more efficient manufacturing processes and accommodates smaller form factors.\nPanel mount SMA connectors play a pivotal role in bridging external and internal components within devices. They are strategically mounted on panel boxes to facilitate connections that transcend device boundaries. Two common approaches for panel mounting include utilizing a flange mechanism secured with screws and employing threads and nuts to firmly fasten the connector to the panel. These connectors are often designed with waterproofing features, safeguarding the connection against environmental factors.\nHaving explored the intricate details of the three primary SMA connector mounting methods—cable connection, PCB mount, and panel mount—it becomes remarkably evident that the versatility of SMA connectors goes beyond just internal configurations. The choice of an appropriate mounting technique empowers engineers and designers to precisely tailor their use of SMA connectors, seamlessly aligning them with the specific requirements of each unique project. This intentional approach ensures not only the achievement of optimal performance but also the establishment of an unswerving foundation of reliability.\nShould you require further clarification or have additional inquiries about SMA connectors and their applications, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us. For a comprehensive overview of our SMA connector offerings, please visit our website: SMA Connector Display.

Setting Up FLIP First things first. Set your desktop to Technical Windows > Desktop > Technical A. Creating a Water Tank Navigate to the Particle Fluid tab in the upper right hand corner of your screen. Left click on the FLIP Tank Solver [Fig. 1] Houdini will ask you to place it. Just go ahead and place it anywhere and then in the parameters window reset the center parameters to 0,0,0. Go up one level in the node window to the obj level and drop into the AutoDopNetwork node by double clicking on it. Make sure the fliptank node is selected. In the second half of the parameter window click on the Guides tab. Once that is select click on the Particles tab below it. [Fig. 2] Change the Visualization parameter to Particles. Now take a look at the Particle Separation parameter in the properties tab. This number determines the spacing in between the particles. For a more impressive simulation choose a lower number. The lower the number the greater the amount of particles, so the sim will be a higher resolution. Right now we want to develop the look of the effect so I suggest a higher number. This means fewer particles and much faster sim times. Don't worry once we get the look, speed and motion down I'll show you my settings for a higher resolution sim that will get you a beautiful result by the end of this chapter. Quick Note: Particle Separation Higher Number = Less Particles = Lower Resolution = Faster Sims [Use for look development] Lower Number = More Particles = Higher Resolution = Slower Sims [Use later for final output] For now set the value to 2. Go back to the obj level of the node window. Drill into the fluidtank_initial node by double clicking on it. In this node we can change the size of the fluid container to cover the area and size we need for our objects to move through. Go ahead and change the Size parameters to 150, 5, 150 This should give us some nice coverage. Now follow with me This might seem a little strange but right-click and copy the Size: Y parameter (Copy Parameter) Right click on the Center: Y parameter and select Paste Copied Relative Reference and then add /2 to the expression. In the end the box should look like this: ch(\"sizey\")/2 [Fig. 3] Now change the Size parameter to 85. Notice how our center now stays in the actual center of the fluid volume. Now change the Water Level Parameter to 15. This value tell us how deep the fluid will be in the fluid container. So right now we have an 85 unit high tank with water filled up to 15 units. So this is a pretty big tank filled with a fairly large volume of liquid. We want to make this scale as close to life sized as possible. In Houdini the simulations are extremely accurate so the closer we get to a real world scale the more real world life like the water will appear to be in our final renders. B. Set-up a Collision Object To see how large the scale of our water tank is let's add a default sphere to the scene. Now go back to the obj level of the node window. Hit [Tab] and type: Sphere to drop a sphere into the scene. Pretty small isn't it. Let's scale up the sphere by 10. Double click on the Sphere node to drill into it. Set the Radius parameter of the sphere to 10, 10, 10. Change the Primitive type to Polygon Mesh Set both the Rows and Columns parameters to 20. Hit [Tab] and type: transform to drop a transform node into the scene below the sphere1 node. We are still inside the Sphere geometry object. Connect the Sphere1 output to the input on the transform1 node. Let's translate the sphere down to about -30 in the Y-axis. Let's also scale the sphere in the X-axis by 2, the Y-axis by 0.5, and Z-axis by 5. [Fig. 4] So now we have a nice flat object we can use to collide with the water in the tank. So let's get to it and see some magic. C. Colliding with a Dynamic Object Go back to the obj level of the node panel. Make sure you have the sphere Geo selected. Navigate to the Rigid Bodies tab and click on the RBD Object button. [Fig. 5] Double click on the AutoDopNetwork node to drill inside. We see that Houdini has created some nodes for us. It is calling the sphere object, telling the sphere object to be processed, and feeding this knowledge into the rigidbodysolver. [Fig. 6] You can hit play if you want on the timeline and it's not very exciting so far. Right now the sphere begins to fall with gravity. At least we know the rigidbodysolver is doing its job. Select the sphere node seen in [Fig. 6] and give it some velocity in the Y-Axis. I'm going to give it a velocity of 30. Feel free to play with the values. Hit play on the timeline and see the results. We get a nice looking effect here when the object comes out of the water. It's even pretty cool to look at when the object falls back down into the tank and creates a secondary splash. However maybe this is not the effect we are looking for and may want to have more control over the object and the sim. D. Colliding with a Static Object Let's revert back to our previous setup before we introduced a rigid body solver. In the AutoDopNetwork go ahead and delete the three nodes seen in [Fig. 6] The sphere, the merge, and the rigidbodysolver. Go back up to the top level obj window and double-click on the sphere object to drill inside. Go ahead and delete the rest1 and dopimport1 nodes. This will revert us back to where we were before we added the rigidbodysolver. Hit [Tab] and type: transform to drop a transform node into our sphere object. Connect the output of the previous transform to the input in the new one. Rename the first transform to Initial_State to remind us of its purpose; to provide the scaling and translation we needed to get the object into its initial state prior to animation. Rename the new second transform to Animation_Transform so we remember this node controls the animation of the object. Make sure your animation slider is set back to frame 1. Now hold down [Alt] and left-click on the Y-Axis box in the Translate parameter. This will add a keyframe. As a little side not if you want to remove this keyframe hold down [Ctrl] and left-click to remove it. Go to frame 100 and set the Y-Axis to 100 and set a key frame. Hit play on the timeline and you can see we have a simple animation on our sphere, but nothing is colliding. Let's fix that. Go back to the obj level of the Node window. Select the sphere geo object. Now instead of clicking on the RBD Object in the Rigid Bodies tab, click on the Static Object button instead. [Fig. 7] Drill into the AutoDopNetwork and notice the three nodes this function created for us. Just like with the RBD Object. Except this time we see the staticsolver. If we press play now we still do not see any fluid simulation. Take a look down in the parameters of our sphere in the AutoDopNetwork [Fig. 7] Check the box next to the Use Deforming Geometry so this attribute is On. It was broken before because the solver was simulating from what was essentially a non-moving piece of geometry. The solver could only 'see' the sphere. By turning Use Deforming Geometry on the solver will now check the geometry and all of its deformations every frame and call that information back to the solver. Now run the simulation again by pressing play. We have a nice splash. We do have a problem with this new method however. The particles aren't inheriting any of the velocity of the object. The particles are not really sticking to the sphere, and it doesn't look like there is very much friction. The splash is there, but doesn't look very realistic. It can look nicer so let's see what we can do to improve the simulation. Select the fliptank node in the AutoDopNetwork and change the Particle Separation parameter to a value of 1.5. This is one of the first parameters we set at the very beginning of the tutorial in section A. This is a little weird so follow with me and I'll post a picture of the attribute. [Fig. 9] Select the flipsolver node in the AutoDopNetwork. In the parameters window select the Volume Motion tab. This will reveal more tabs below in the secondary row of tabs select the Collisions tab. This tab will have an attribute called Stick on Collision. Check this box On. This parameter, if we hover over it, causes the fluid's velocity to match the collision velocity of the collision objects in proximity to it. Set the Stick Scale to .5. Set the Normal Scale to 3. The normal scale is telling the flipsolver is try to match the direction and velocity of the normal while sticking to the object. Change the Velocity Type to Point. At the top row of the parameter tabs select the Particle Motion tab. Then in the secondary row of tabs select the Reseeding tab. Uncheck the Reseed Particles parameter.\nWhen this box is checked the solver will create more particles in the sim where it sees a scarcity of particles. This is usually used to avoid pockets of air and to provide a smoother surface.", "domain": "design"}

I had seen these walls before, in another country but as long and hard as I stared at the walls and tried to remember where – the answer did not come. I wondered how long it took to build these walls of rubble. Patience and limestone, those are the ingredients to rubble walls, there’s nothing holding them together but the skillful stacking and weight of themselves. This was yet another architectural wonder of Malta.\nUnlike the unclear origins of the Maltese balconies, the stone walls were most definitely started by Arabic influence and they serve multiple purposes. They were used to section off land ownership. Often when a father passed he had to split up his land between his many children (most families had more than 10 kids), the walls sectioned off the land. In addition the walls were used for farming; specifically to avoid erosion. Water and wind is able to pass through but the walls trap the soil and prevents it from being carried away from the fields.\nThese walls may look simple, but trust me – they aren’t. Typically it takes great skill to build these dry stone walls; stones are carefully placed in double walled design, and filled in the middle with rubble. It mainly consists of erecting structures by using only gravity and friction as binding agents and the technique is thousands of years old.\nOne wouldn’t think that walls would be a staple of a country, but in Malta they are. Putting the architecture and agriculture aside, they are beautiful structures that are mesmerizing; they are works of art standing alone in the countryside. They add to the unique Maltese landscape; who says that rubble can’t be beautiful.\nClick on image to get more information on how you can purchase the image.", "domain": "design"}

So, how did Telegraphy teacher George Safford Parker go from supplementing his teaching income by selling pens for the John Holland Pens Company to creating a brand of exceptional writing instruments which remains consistently in the top 10 luxury pen brands and top 10 ink manufacturers in the global market? Parker was one of the first brands with a global presence and is a household name that finds itself in the ‘favourites’ list of esteemed pen enthusiasts and experts not just the data driven reports.\nA ‘Very Brief’ History of Parker Pens: Pre-Duofold\nParker Pens would go on to be an international company but held humble beginnings in Janesville, Wisconsin USA at the hands of a 25 year old George Safford Parker - a Man who through his teaching career had found himself spending more and more time providing repair services for his students pens. George began to identify some of the key issues with the pens on the market at that time and began tinkering with designs and mechanisms to create a superior tool.\nOfficially conceived in 1888 upon the application of Parker's first pen patent and the ethos of 'It will always be possible to make a better pen', Parker Pens was established and set to work creating pens with exemplary writing characteristics and avoided the usual pitfalls of pens which were prone to leakages. Just 6 short years later came the first major breakthrough for Parker with the invention of his pioneering anti-leak system the ‘Lucky Curve’. The ‘Lucky Curve’ had a massive impact on the pen market with Parker advertising the mechanism itself (even though it was unseen within the pen itself) rather than just the appearance and characteristics of the pen. The mechanism itself was a beautiful nod to nature with its capillary style filling mechanism which took inspiration from tall trees which draw up water from the root to sustain the entire living tree - but that's a discussion for another article!\nWhen discussing the history of Parker Pens, it is often noted that their history is denoted as ‘pre’ and ‘post’ Duofold - highlighting the importance of the Duofold in setting Parker’s place in history.\nBy the early 20th Century, Parker had released his first limited editions, the Parker Snake Pen, inspired by the Art Nouveau movement and featuring Gold and Sterling Silver detailing. It is often reported that in 1908, the Parker factory in Janesville was the largest pen manufacturing facility in the world - although this is difficult to corroborate.\nThe outbreak of war in 1914 had a massive impact on the global economy as well as the massive impact on human life. Parker Pens was able to ensure financial success throughout the war due to their creation of the Trench pen. Awarded a contract by the U.S War department, the Trench pen held ink pellets in its barrel which would turn to liquid ink when mixed with fluid. In 1914, Parker also expanded the company to include his son Russell who would concentrate efforts on production and administration. The family business was further expanded in 1919 with George’s other son Kenneth joining the company, coinciding with the construction of a new headquarters building. In the years prior to Kenneth joining the Parker Pen Company, the Jack-Knife safety pen was introduced to their ever expanding pen lines and was the precursor to the Duofold. In 1918 Parker Pens celebrated their annual sales surpassing $1 million but, considering the challenges of the American (and global) economy, was a testament to the company’s dedication to products of excellence and commitment to continual adaptation and innovation - very much staying true to George’s original philosophy.\nAfter the development of the Automatic Pencil (which would become the mechanical pencil) by Croatian engineer and inventor Slavoljub Eduard Penkala from 1906, Parker Pens introduced their own take on the mechanical Pencil in 1920. In the same year, distribution channels began to be established in Europe, Australia, India and the East.\nParker Duofold is Born: 1921\nThe Parker Pen Company had established themselves as a profitable company in their first 30 years of existence but it wasn’t until the introduction of the Duofold that Parker transformed into a market leading creator of writing instruments.\nWith much misinformation about the origins of the name ‘Duofold’ with some claims that it referred to the conversion of the pen into a desk pen or eyedropper are unfounded when we look to the original advertisements. The most compelling discussion regarding its origins relate to the popularity of the ‘duo’ prefix referring to a varied range of products, a term which was prominent in marketing at the time. The fold element of the name refers perhaps to the size of the pen which was twice the size of the majority of pens on the market - or you might say twofold.\nParker Duofold Senior \"Big Red\" ca. 1928 with later replacement arrow nib\nThe Duofold was an early example of the growth of the popularity of colour, rejecting the commonly held belief that the general public favoured a modest palette of plain black. The Parker Duofold opened up the market to the adoption of bold coloured celluloid pens which emerged in the years following the initial release of the Duofold.\nParker Duofold: An Anatomy\nThe initial Duofold design released in 1921, although an offshoot of the Parker Jack Knife Safety line, was a domineering 5.5 inches when capped. Created with an eye-catching bright red hard rubber with deep black hard rubber end pieces, the first Duofolds featured bandless caps. With a price-point of $7 (equivalent to around $100 or £77 today) they were certainly a premium luxury item and were representative of the excesses of the roaring 20’s in the United States. Although £77 today would not seem excessively expensive for a fountain pen, it was certainly no small amount considering the Parker Duofold cost 10% of the average weekly income for the USA at the time. For the same price of a Parker Duofold you could go to the pictures and watch Charlie Chaplin’s ‘The Kid’ over 46 times!\nImage Credit: David Nishimura Vintage Pens & Writing Equipment\nAlthough it was common at that time for pens to be made from hard rubber (ebonite), it was less common for them to be bright red - which considering ebonite was only available in red or black is somewhat surprising. Well, not that surprising when it is considered that the dyes used in the rubber-making process to create the red hue tended to make the finished product somewhat brittle - an issue which was prevalent with the first Parker Duofolds that has led to a rarity of the original models availability to modern collectors.\nThe Duofold utilised the 1916 invention of Parker, the button-fill mechanism, which was designed to compete with rival company Sheaffer’s lever-filler which was leading the way with a sleeker pen design due to the lever being covered whilst capped. The button-fill mechanism created by Parker meant that levers were not an issue to be disguised and thus the filling mechanism was not an hindrance on the overall aesthetic of the pen itself.\nThe Parker Duofold was affectionately nicknamed the ‘Big Red’ due to its appearance. The Duofold was an instant success but there was a significant issue...the bandless cap. The lack of band meant that for the heavy handed writers or those who over-enthusiastically posted their pen, there was a tendency for the caps to crack and split. With a couple months of their release the Parker Duofold was withdrawn from sale and an attractive gold cap-band added to strengthen the pen. These were known as ‘raised-band’ Duofolds.\nThe opulence of the pricing and styling made the Parker Duofold a must-have item and its popularity remained high for several years with the original Big Red. Joining the original model was the Junior model which was half an inch shorter than the original, or Senior, model and the Lady’s Duofold which featured a ringtop instead of a pocket clip followed by the Duofold Special which was the same size as the Big Red but with a slimmer barrel diameter. Adaptations were relatively minor during the first 5 years of the Parker Duofold, however bigger changes would come in 1926.\nParker & the ‘Unbreakable Permanite’\nParker Pen production-lines, and those of other manufacturers for that matter, were forever changed with the introduction of celluloid. Sheaffer was the first company to begin manufacturing with celluloid in 1924 and so, not ones to back-down from a challenge, Parker took the strong, versatile and mouldable characteristics of celluloid, branded it ‘Permanite’ and began dramatically increasing design and colour options alongside the original Red and Black which was available in the galvanised rubber of the early Duofold lines.\nAcross the industry, pen designers began to unleash their artistic and creative sides aided by the new possibilities associated with celluloid as a material for manufacturing. Celluloid is essentially a class of thermoplastics created by combining nitrocellulose and camphor with dyes and other agents which allows for a huge variety of uses due to variations in the manufacturing and moulding process. Originally conceived in the late 19th Century, the formulation and processing of the material underwent many iterations before the pen manufacturing industry adopted it in the mid 1920’s.\nParker Duofold pens from a 1920s magazine advertisement\nThere are conflicting accounts of the ‘first’ colour to be released by Parker after the introduction of Permanite with some suggesting it was Jade Green to compete with Sheaffer’s ‘Jade Radite Lifetime Pens’ but these were initially not referred to as Duofolds but rather the ‘Black Tipped Jade’ although it would later be renamed as part of the Duofold family. Other accounts suggest that the attractive Lapis Lazuli Blue (blue and white pattern) was the first colour created that was not the traditional red or black, this argument stems primarily from the fact that the Jade pens were not named as Duofold until 1927. Irrespective of which came first, both the blue and green were incredibly popular alongside the third colour option, Mandarin Yellow. The Yellow Duofolds were wonderfully bright and bold, nostalgic perhaps of the impact of the Big Red when it was first released...there was an issue though. The dyes required to create the bright plastic had the secondary impact of making them very brittle, even more so than the red dyes in galvanised rubber which celluloid sought to replace. This of course means that the chances of coming across a mint condition yellow Duofold from the 1920s is rare. It is reported that had it not been for the insistence of George Parker himself, the Yellow Duofolds would not have been produced for anywhere near as long as they were (phased out in 1929) because of this issue.\nIt should be noted that the yellow dyes used in the creation of the celluloid cause the pen to be brittle from the outset, but an inherent flaw of celluloid is its degradation over time. Age causes the camphor molecules to be excreted due to unsustainable pressure which gives rise to the nitrocellulose molecules to rebind and crystallise, exposing the camphor to the environment allowing for sublimation (transition from solid to gas without becoming liquid) leaving behind brittle nitrocellulose.\nFor the majority of pens made from the ‘Unbreakable Permanite’, degradation would not be an issue, particularly as the process of degradation was not noted (across celluloid products as a whole, not solely fountain pens) until the late 1980’s. In fact, The Parker Pen company famously undertook publicity stunts to demonstrate the durability of their ‘Permanite’ pens which included throwing pens over the Grand Canyon and even dropping one out of an aeroplane from 3,000 feet.\nEnd of a Decade, End of an Era: Parker Duofold Redesigned\n1928 saw the introduction of the Moderne black and the Moderne Pearl (black lined pearl) as a deluxe model in the Parker Duofold collection. The deluxe aspect was signified with the addition of a third cap ring to the cap band. In fact, 1928 was the first and last time that two band models were produced, much like trees you can gauge the age of a Parker Duofold by counting its rings. The vest pocket and women’s models went from two cap bands to three and ‘regular’ sized pieces shifted from a singular thick cap band to two slim bands.\nThe end of 1929, the Parker Duofold line was completely redesigned with slimline, smooth, tapered ends inspired by the Art Deco movement which was gaining traction. Prior to this, Parker Duofold could be described as tubular and even angular with sharp right angles at the cap and barrel ends which had begun to feel dated. The transformation of the Duofold to be more in line with the style and aesthetics of the 1930’s also saw the introduction of further colour variety with Burgundy, Green and Pearl and Green and Black Pearl.\nThe redesign of the Parker Duofold was not enough for the company, who viewed the design as outmoded and tired. The Parker Duofold enjoyed a 12 year stint as the premier product of Parker but was demoted to the second tier upon the introduction of the Vacumatic in 1933. Designed as a replacement for the Duofold, the Vacumatic held twice the volume of ink as the Duofold (and other pens for that matter) and had the innovation of a visible ink reservoir. The Vacumatic was released in line with the reveal of the now famous Parker arrow clip designed by artist Joseph Platt.\nImage Credit: Scott Hoffman Rancho Bernardo, CA, USA - 1945 Parker Vacumatic - CC BY-SA 2.0\nThe Parker Duofold was a bestseller but its importance for Parker should not be understated. The popularity of the Duofold lines and the variation within the collection meant that the Parker Catalogue could be streamlined, drastically reducing the number of different models available allowing for greater efficiency in the manufacturing process. Although the Duofold was supplanted by the Vacumatic, the Duofold remained popular - especially in Europe - and production continued on Parker’s Duofold throughout the 1930’s, albeit on a much smaller scale than before. The success of the Parker Duofold supported the expansion of Parker Pens and allowed for funds to be rerouted to research and development in a new way. 1931 saw the launch of the first product created by the Parker research and development team, after 1021 experiments ‘Quink’, or quick-drying ink, was available and made its mark (pun intended) as the first pen-cleaning ink that dries fast on paper and needs no blotter. The Duofolds which were produced throughout the latter half of the 1930’s, took style inspiration from the Vac, with slim and sleek designs prevailed and in 1940 the name ‘Duofold’ was revived, though the Classic Duofolds as we know them had had their moment in the sun.\nThe ‘modern’ Duofolds were produced well into the 1960s and were a steady seller in varying sizes, colours and designs but they very much chugged along quietly in the background with the award winning Parker 51, the Parker Jotter (sold 3.5 million in its first year) ballpoint, and even the emblematic arrow clip taking centre stage. In the 1970s a lower end pen dubbed the ‘Big Red’ named after the nickname of the original Duofold, was released but really the resurgence of popularity for the Duofold took place in the 1980s. The 80’s saw Parker restore the Duofold as its flagship offering and in celebration of the company’s centenary the Duofold Centennial Series was released with Fountain Pens, Rollerballs and Pencils. The success of the series supported the later introduction of the Duofold international line which was smaller than the Centennial but evoked the classic Duofold Design which the Centennial series had revived. The main difference in the Parker Duofolds created in the 1980s was the move away from the button filler mechanism to a converter/cartridge system, bringing Duofold into the 20th Century. Both the Centennial series and the International Lines were huge successes.\nWhy is the Parker Duofold Iconic?\nA simple answer would be that the Parker Duofold remained true to George Safford Parker’s original ethos of making quality pens with exceptional writing characteristics and although there are some incredibly stylish models, for the most part Parker duofolds hold a quiet elegance which is understated and tasteful. The variety of variations which were born from the introduction of celluloid made for increased interest among collectors, both at the time of release and for contemporary enthusiasts.\nThrough every iteration of the Duofold, great care was taken to ensure that each element of the anatomy of the pen was of high quality and that style didn’t compromise the writing integrity of the piece.", "domain": "design"}

It is important that you understand furniture shopping 101 before you even think about heading to a furniture store. This will ensure that you know what you need to look for in the furniture that you are going to be buying.\nErgonomics Are Fundamental\nOne of the fundamentals of furniture shopping 101 is that you have to look at function and ergonomics before style. There is no point in having a piece of furniture that looks great in the room when you are unable to actually use it. To determine the ergonomics of the furniture, you have to consider how it is going to be used.\nA good example of this will be your dining table chairs. You will want to have chairs that people can comfortably sit in for a number of hours. For this, you will have to ensure that they are ergonomic and comfortable so people do not feel discomfort when they sit on them.\nDouble Check The Dimensions\nThe pictures that you see of furniture will never be able to depict the true scale of the items correctly. This is something that you have to consider if you are going to be buying furniture online and not going into a store. However, if you are going to a furniture store, you still need to take note of the dimensions of the furniture and the room they are going into.\nBefore you look at furniture, you should measure the exact dimensions that you need. This will help you narrow down the options that you have when you buy and ensure that you are always buying the right furniture for the room. You should also check how the furniture will get to the destination room. There is no point in buying a sofa that will not fit through your door when it is delivered.\nDo Not Be Afraid Of Going Bigger\nThere are a lot of people who are nervous about going for a larger item of furniture. This is something that you should not be afraid of if you have the space for it. If you understand the scale of your room correctly, the one piece of large furniture could be what you need to bring the room together.\nWhen you place a bigger piece of furniture in the right place, it can make the room feel larger. However, if the room is already small or the furniture is not placed in the right place, it can make the room smaller. If you are unsure about the scale of the room, you might want to talk to the people at the furniture store as they should be able to help you.\nThere is a lot of information you have to consider when you are shopping for furniture. The most important is that you have to consider function before anything else and then double check the dimensions. You should also not be afraid of bigger items if you are sure you can balance them correctly.", "domain": "design"}

Prior to Ranjit Singh’s leadership, each Misl operated as an independent entity within the Sikh Confederacy. Mahan Singh joined forces with Jassa Singh Ramgarhia, the leader of the Ramgarhia Misl, and together they defeated the Kanheya Misl in the Battle of Batala. They also captured the formidable Rohtas Fort from the armies of Ahmad Shah Durrani, the founder of the Durrani Empire.

The MacBook Air was made for portability but it falls short in some departments. Especially with competition like Microsoft Surface Pro 6, the question of which one is better comes to mind. Let us get into the depth by doing a MacBook Air vs. Surface Pro review.\n|Microsoft Surface Pro 6\n|13.3-inch, 2560 x 1600\n|12.3-inch, 2736 x 1824\n|Intel Core i5-8210Y\n|Intel Core i5-8250U\n|2 Thunderbolt 3, headphone\n|USB 3.0, DisplayPort, Surface Connect, microSD, headphone\n|12 x 8.4 x 0.6 inches\n|11.5 x 7.9 x 0.3 inches\n|8 to 9 hours\n|9 to 10 hours\n|Space Gray, gold, silver\n|Type Cover (black, burgundy, platinum, cobalt)\nWhen it comes to design, Apple has always tried to keep it simple and sleek. The MacBook Air has become thinner in the updated version and weighs only 2.75 pounds. Despite being such as easily portable laptop, it is built well. The laptop is available in space gray, silver and gold colors. Just like the other Apple laptops, this one also has the butterfly keyboard that you might not like if you have not liked it before.\nOn the other hand, Surface Pro 6 has the trademark Microsoft aesthetic. The silver-gray exterior coupled with the robust build makes the laptop look and feel amazing, weighing only 2.4 pounds. Made of metal and glass, this machine is extremely elegant and smooth enough to give Apple laptops a run for their money. It features the Microsoft Precision touchpad which is very comfortable to type on and supports Windows 10 gestures.\nIf we have to choose a winner between the two in terms of design, we would crown the Microsoft Surface Pro 6 since it clearly has a sleeker and more comfortable design. And did we mention it comes in black too? Definitely a snatch.\nAs someone who needs to carry around their laptop from one place to another, you would prefer the Surface Pro 6 as it is more portable. Weighing only 2.4 pounds, it is much easier to carry than the 2.8 pound MacBook Air.\nYou can tell that the manufacturers did not pay much attention to this feature. Both the MacBook Air and the Surface Pro lack in this regard. The MacBook Air has a headphone jack and two Thunderbolt 3 ports.\nThe Surface Pro has a USB 3.0 port, a micro SD card reader, a headphone jack and a Display Port. But there is no USB-C port. There is no winner in this round as both the laptops are pretty much the same.\nNo matter which laptop you choose, you will need an adapter. This lack of ports in both the laptops makes them unsuitable for photographers, designers and videographers who need plenty of ports to work efficiently.\nIn this case, you have to decide what you want to opt for. The MacBook Air has a 13-inch screen with a 2560 x 1600-pixel screen resolution while the Surface Pro has a 12.3-inch screen with a resolution of 2736 x 1824 pixels.\nThe Surface Pro is much brighter at 408 nits and has a yellowish tinge to the images while the MacBook Air, at 343 nits, has a clean white balance. If you want a brighter screen that shows you every detail on the screen, you would prefer the Surface Pro.\nOne thing that you would notice about the Surface Pro is that it has a slightly higher saturation in its display. For example, if you watch a movie, the smaller details will be much more visible but they will also have a yellowish tinge to them.\nOn the other hand, the white balance of MacBook Air makes the images seem much cleaner and neutral. However, if you are a movie-lover and you want a rich display, you would like the Surface Pro.\nWhile both the laptops feature Intel’s 8th generation CPUs, Apple’s CPU runs on dual-core since it is from the Y-series. On the other hand, the Surface Pro’s CPU is from the U-series and has quad-cores. What this means in the normal-people language is that the Surface Pro is packed with much more power than the MacBook Air and it runs faster.\nSo, it is settled then. The MacBook Air cannot live up to the power and performance on the Surface Pro. However, if there is one thing which the MacBook Air does supersede the Surface Pro is the 256GB PCIe SSD which has a much faster file transfer rate than the Surface Pro’s 256GB SSD.\nOverall, we can say without a doubt that the Surface Pro is an evident choice for someone who looks for higher performance. If you are a graphic designer, editor or filmmaker, you would like the Surface Pro while students and office workers can work with the MacBook Air just fine.\nIf you have ever used MacBook Air, you would know how unreliable and difficult the keyboard is. The same can be said about the newer model. According to Apple, they have made a few changes to the keyboard but as a user, you would not notice much of a difference.\nOn the other hand, the Surface Pro’s keyboard is a delight to work with. It can be detached and has 1.3mm travel in the keys. Also, when you are typing, you would know if the key has been pressed as the keys give off a bump upon being pressed.\nWith the MacBook Air, you are more prone to making mistakes as compared to the Surface Pro. Therefore, if your job involves a lot of writing or if you are a student who needs to type long papers and essays, you would enjoy the accuracy and reliability of Surface Pro’s keyboard.\nThere is a close competition on this one. While the MacBook Air lasts for about 9 hours while the Surface Pro lasts for 50 minutes or so more than that. So, there is not much of a choice here until you really can do a lot with an hour of battery life.\nHowever, if you are a professional who needs a longer battery life, then the Surface Pro is ideal for you. Sometimes, even an extra hour of battery life can do wonders for your work.\nWhile students will appreciate the battery life of MacBook Air, design and art professionals will prefer the Surface Pro’s battery life. This is because such professionals use demanding software like Photoshop and Premiere Pro that drain battery much faster.\nAt the end of the day, a laptop has to be portable because beauty and aesthetics just do not cut it. The MacBook Air is quite thin and lightweight but the Surface Pro is lighter than it, despite being thicker. Both the laptops are quite portable but if you need a laptop that is lightweight and also has sufficient battery life, you should opt for the Microsoft Surface Pro.\nAt first, you might think that the 0.4 pound difference between the two laptops is not a lot. But it actually is. If you are going to work, sitting on your desk the whole day, the weight will not matter. However, if you are going to carry your laptop bag the whole day, the lighter 2.4 pound Microsoft Surface Pro should be your pick.\nValue for Money\nApple laptops are expensive and we all know it. The Surface Pro starts at a much lower price than the MacBook Air. The MacBook Air can be upgraded to have 16 GB RAM but the CPU cannot be upgraded.\nOn the other hand, the Surface Pro comes in upgraded models in which you get double the storage, 16 GB RAM and core i7 CPU. So, there is a lot to gain as the price goes higher. The full-blown version of Surface Pro can cost you double the price of MacBook Air but the entry-level version is a few hundred bucks cheaper than the entry-level Air.\nMacBook Air vs. Surface Pro: Which is better?\nWe don’t like to choose favorites but we would have to say that the Surface Pro 6 does a much better job at practically everything. You can still get the MacBook Air as it is best for average users or students but if you want to edit, make videos or use heavy design apps, you should invest your money in the Microsoft Surface Pro 6.\nThe Surface Pro has a better screen display which makes it suitable for Netflix and chill while its longer battery life ensures that the laptop does not die in the middle of an exciting episode. Moreover, it is better in terms of performance and has a slimmer and lighter design for enhanced portability. Overall, there is no doubting the fact that the Surface Pro takes the win in this contest.", "domain": "design"}

Together they have designed a meticulously balanced soundscape perfectly attuned to the cabin of the first-ever BMW SUV to be fitted with the unique Bang & Olufsen sound.\nSignature style and sound\nThe first BMW model with Bang & Olufsen sound to be produced in the USA, the BMW X5 incorporates all of the signature features that have successfully been implemented by Bang & Olufsen in the BMW 5 Series, BMW 6 Series and BMW 7 Series models. Sixteen active loudspeakers powered by a 1,200-watt amplifier provide a rich, layered and authentic sound and each of the seven tweeters is twinned with a mid-range loudspeaker for a homogenous sound experience. BMW’s subwoofer architecture, with the two drivers placed in an extremely rigid part of the body structure under each of the front seats, elegantly eliminates unwanted vibration and ensures a powerful, clean reproduction of the bass. Additionally, data gathered from a cabin-mounted microphone is used to constantly adjust the sound according to changing conditions inside and outside the car, from engine noise and air conditioning to poor road surfaces and extreme weather conditions.\nAlso featured in the sound system are two alternative sound modes. Select ‘Studio’ mode for a vivid sound stage reminiscent of a recording studio. Or choose ‘Expanded’ mode, which widens the sound stage to give the impression that the loudspeakers are located outside the car to replicate the feeling of listening to music in a concert hall or theatre.\nPlay it by ear\nCrucially, all of this cutting-edge technology is backed up by the expertise and experience of Bang & Olufsen and BMW sound engineers who did most of the final sound-tuning by ear. This process of using both advanced digital signal processing and the human ear to test sound clarity, both when the car is static and on the test track with the BMW X5 travelling at speeds up to 200 kph, has culminated in a listening experience on par with the finest home audio systems.\nBespoke design features\nThe pristine sound is matched by timeless design that coherently blends with the interior contours of the car. New and unique design elements of the Bang & Olufsen high-end Surround Sound system for the BMW X5 include round, solid aluminium grilles – these grilles feature the BMW-specific ‘Perlglanz’ (Pearl Gloss) colour and perfectly aligned machine-drilled holes which maximize airflow. To eliminate sun reflection an elegant dark grey ‘atlasgrau’ colour has been chosen for the centre-speaker in the X5 and this is pearl-blasted to give a matte finish of unparalleled durability. The bespoke design of the lighting incorporated into the mirror triangle speaker grille on the front door delivers wonderfully homogenous luminosity. To add a final stamp of quality, the Bang & Olufsen name is laser-engraved onto the surface of most of the grilles.\nA touch of magic\nThe unique Bang & Olufsen Orchestration, with the loudspeaker cover rising silently from the centre of the dashboard to reveal the large acoustic lens as the LED lights simultaneously illuminate, lends a touch of magic to the whole sensory experience. Bang & Olufsen’s Acoustic Lens Technology distributes sound horizontally with 180˚ of dispersion left to right. Closer inspection of the acoustic lens cover also reveals an additional mid-range loudspeaker to deliver perfectly balanced sound throughout the cabin for driver and passengers.\nThis is an in-car audio system that showcases all the sophisticated, stylish elements and precision engineering you expect from Bang & Olufsen and BMW. It’s an audio system that needs to be heard – and felt – as well as seen, so visit your local BMW dealer and experience it for yourself.", "domain": "design"}

Inspired, she immediately bought a wheel and kiln and set about trying to learn everything on her own while living on a commune in Washington state.\nMissett eventually went back to school for a BFA, then to graduate school at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York. She is currently an Adjunct Professor at the City University of New York, as well as a faculty member of Greenwich House Pottery and the Art Program director for the West Side YMCA.\nHere is how Missett describes her work:\nCanopic jars were used by Egyptians to inter various internal organs with the deceased. I worked at the Metropolitan Museum of Art when I was in graduate school and became fascinated with these wonderful pieces that were usually made of alabaster or limestone. The tops depicted Egyptian deities, frequently animals, and the sides of the jars often had intriguing letters and drawings. I was interested in borrowing the form for my own work because I was very concerned with environmental issues, particularly endangered species, having grown up in South Florida and watched the disappearance of so much wildlife as the population exploded. I grew up playing in mangrove swamps and spending hours diving on reefs that are no longer there. I had been making all sorts of animals and birds in clay for many years. I was also doing a lot of experimentation with printing photographs onto the ceramic surface and the combination of two- and three-dimensional surfaces on one piece was a natural fit for my aesthetic. Finally, the association with death and afterlife was perfect for the subject matter of endangered species and the environment.\nThe pieces are primarily hand built from slabs of clay, although some of the bottoms begin on the wheel and are then built up by the addition of slabs. All the forms are hollow, including the sculptural tops; they are all fired, some multiple times to create a particular surface effect.\nI have had the good fortune to learn many types of firing processes as I do have access to places that have wood, salt, and raku kilns within a reasonable distance of New York City. I tend to think of the finished surface when conceptualizing a piece so the pieces are frequently quite different from each other depending on the firing chosen.\nLynx with Blue Rose\nSalt Fired Porcelain\n29”h x 8”w x8”d\nThis was inspired by the proposed drilling in the Artic National Wildlife Refuge.

The town, nestled amidst the Brière marsh in France, is unveiling a unique project: a canopy of solar panels erected over its cemetery to supply power to the local populace.\nThe genesis of this idea stems from the geographical challenges faced by Saint-Joachim. The cemetery, situated on a lower elevation than the surrounding area, often succumbs to flooding during the winter months due to its location in the marshland. Traditional drainage solutions proved futile against the marsh's moisture. Hence, the mayor proposed covering the cemetery to prevent inundation, while also addressing the town's seasonal water scarcity by repurposing rainwater for irrigation.\nIncorporating solar panels into the canopy not only adds an eco-friendly dimension but also harnesses electricity from what was previously an unused surface. Saint-Joachim has long been a trailblazer in renewable energy, having installed photovoltaic panels on municipal buildings as early as 2012. Building upon this momentum, the town decided to extend the benefits of solar electricity to its residents through this innovative project.\nWhat distinguishes Saint-Joachim's initiative is its egalitarian approach to energy distribution. Unlike traditional models, where energy projects are often top-down endeavours, this scheme is a collaborative effort involving the town's citizens. Residents were actively engaged in the decision-making process, with an overwhelming majority expressing support for the project. For a nominal fee of €5, residents can become stakeholders in the project and receive a share of the electricity generated.\nImplementing such a communal solar cemetery project presents logistical challenges, particularly in devising a fair distribution system for the electricity generated. Unlike typical shared solar setups involving a handful of participants, this project involves over 1,000 connections. To ensure equitable distribution, a bespoke algorithm will allocate electricity based on consumption patterns, facilitating fair billing for all participants.\nBeyond its practical benefits, the project embodies a spirit of community collaboration and environmental stewardship. While some may find the notion of generating electricity in a cemetery unconventional, the primary goal remains addressing the town's pressing needs while fostering sustainability. The semi-transparent canopy design not only allows light to filter through but also symbolises a beacon of progress and resilience for the town.\nFinanced entirely by the municipality, the €3.35 million installation signifies a significant investment in the town's future. With completion slated for summer 2025, Saint-Joachim's solar cemetery promises to provide its residents with affordable, renewable energy, marking a milestone in the town's journey towards self-sufficiency and environmental consciousness.", "domain": "design"}

It begins with the careful planning and design of pipelines, placement of fixtures, and integration of efficient water heating and cooling systems. As the skeletal framework of a building takes shape, All Pro Plumbing will work closely with architects, electricians, and other construction professionals to ensure that pipes are correctly positioned, avoiding structural beams and electrical wiring. The meticulous installation of plumbing systems during this phase ensures the seamless flow of clean water in and wastewater out, guaranteeing the building's occupants a safe, hygienic, and comfortable living or working environment.\nThis is the initial stage of plumbing, and it takes place after the foundation of the building is laid but before any interior walls or flooring are installed. During this phase, the main water supply and sewage lines are established, and pipes are run throughout the building. Rough-ins involve positioning the pipes for sinks, tubs, and toilets, ensuring they align with the architectural plans. It sets the groundwork for the entire plumbing system, and it's vital for accurate measurements and placements to prevent issues down the line.\nAfter the rough-in phase is completed and the building's structure is more defined with framing in place, the top-out phase begins. This phase involves installing water supply lines to each fixture, completing the drainage lines, and making sure vents are appropriately placed. During this stage, the main water lines are often pressure tested to check for leaks, and drainage systems might be checked for proper sloping and functionality.\nThis is the final stage of plumbing during construction and takes place when the building is near completion. During the trim-out phase, plumbers install fixtures like faucets, showers, toilets, sinks, water heaters, and any appliances that require water connections, such as dishwashers or washing machines. It's the phase where the plumbing system is readied for everyday use. Before final sign-off, the entire system undergoes thorough testing to ensure all components function correctly and that there are no leaks or other issues.", "domain": "design"}

Let’s explore these differences to help you make an informed decision about which option is best for you.\nCustom Orthotic Insoles:\nCustom orthotic insoles are designed to be inserted into your existing footwear, meaning you can use them in multiple pairs of shoes. This versatility is a significant advantage, allowing you to maintain your style and choose different shoe types while still benefiting from customized foot support.\nCustom orthotic insoles are generally more cost-effective than custom orthotic shoes. If you have multiple pairs of shoes, investing in custom insoles may be a more budget-friendly option.\n- Personalized Fit:\nInsoles are custom-made to fit your unique foot shape, providing personalized support for your specific needs. They can address issues like flat feet, high arches, or specific biomechanical problems.\n- Replacement Ease:\nInsoles can be easily transferred from one pair of shoes to another. If your insoles wear out or if you get new shoes, you can continue to use the same custom insoles, which can be more convenient and cost-effective in the long run.\nCustom Orthotic Shoes:\n- All-in-One Solution:\nCustom orthotic shoes are designed with the orthotic built into the shoe itself. This provides a seamless and consistent level of support and comfort, as the orthotic is an integral part of the shoe’s design.\n- Targeted Conditions:\nCustom orthotic shoes are ideal for individuals with more severe or complex foot issues. They can be designed to address a wide range of conditions, from diabetic foot problems to severe pronation or supination.\n- Specialized Materials:\nThese shoes often use specialized materials for cushioning, support, and durability. This can be particularly beneficial for those who require a higher degree of support or need specific materials to accommodate medical conditions.\n- Dedicated Design:\nCustom orthotic shoes are designed with the orthotic in mind from the outset. This means they can be more visually appealing and streamlined, as the orthotic is integrated into the shoe’s overall design.\nThe choice between custom orthotic insoles and custom orthotic shoes depends on your specific needs, lifestyle, and preferences. If you’re looking for an adaptable solution that you can use in multiple pairs of shoes, custom orthotic insoles might be the right choice. On the other hand, if you have more complex foot issues or require a seamless and dedicated solution, custom orthotic shoes could be the best option for you.\nOne of our chiropodists will help to determine which option is most suitable for your individual requirements. We can conduct a thorough assessment of your feet and help you decide whether custom orthotic insoles or custom orthotic shoes will best address your specific foot health needs.", "domain": "design"}

Your brand identity is not just a logo or a catchy tagline; it’s the personality and essence of your business that sets you apart from the rest. In this guide, we’ll delve into the crucial aspects of creating a brand identity, offering tips on identifying your target audience, defining your brand personality, and choosing the right visual elements.\nUnderstanding Your Target Audience\nBefore embarking on the journey of brand identity creation, it’s crucial to understand your target audience. Who are they? What are their needs, desires, and pain points? Conducting thorough market research and creating customer personas can help you gain valuable insights.\nIdentifying your target audience not only guides your branding decisions but also influences your messaging and communication strategies. A brand that resonates with its audience establishes a stronger connection, fostering loyalty and trust. Take the time to understand the demographics, psychographics, and behaviors of your target customers.\nDefining Your Brand Personality\nYour brand personality is the human side of your business. It’s the emotional connection you establish with your audience. To define your brand personality, consider the following:\nDetermine whether your brand aligns with archetypes like the Hero, Explorer, or Sage. This helps you establish a consistent tone and resonate with specific emotions.\nOutline the values that your brand embodies. Whether it’s innovation, authenticity, or sustainability, these values should permeate every aspect of your business.\nVoice and Tone\nEstablish a distinct voice and tone for your communication. Whether it’s friendly and casual or formal and authoritative, consistency is key.\nIdentify what sets you apart from competitors. Highlighting unique qualities helps customers connect with your brand on a deeper level.\nBy clearly defining your brand personality, you create a foundation for consistent messaging and engagement that resonates with your target audience.\nChoosing Visual Elements\nVisual elements play a crucial role in shaping the perception of your brand. From the logo to the color palette, these elements should reflect your brand personality and resonate with your target audience. Consider these tips when creating your brand identity:\nYour logo is the visual representation of your brand. It should be memorable, scalable, and reflective of your brand personality. Think about the Nike swoosh or the golden arches of McDonald’s - instantly recognizable and synonymous with their respective brands.\nColors evoke emotions and can influence perceptions. Choose a color palette that aligns with your brand personality and appeals to your target audience. For example, blue may convey trust and reliability, while green may symbolize sustainability.\nThe fonts you choose contribute to the overall aesthetic of your brand. Consider the readability and appropriateness of fonts for your industry. A sleek, modern font may work well for a tech brand, while a more traditional font might suit a financial institution.\nConsistent imagery helps reinforce your brand identity. Whether you opt for vibrant and energetic visuals or minimalist and sophisticated images, ensure they align with your brand personality.\nEnsuring Consistency Across Channels\nConsistency is key when it comes to brand identity. Whether a customer interacts with your brand on social media, your website, or in-store, the experience should be cohesive. Establish brand guidelines that detail the proper use of logos, colors, fonts, and messaging. This ensures that every touchpoint reinforces your brand identity and leaves a lasting impression.\nEvolving Your Brand Identity\nAs your business grows and evolves, so too may your brand identity. Stay attuned to market trends, shifts in consumer behavior, and advancements in your industry. Periodically reassess your brand identity to ensure it remains relevant and resonant with your target audience.\nIn short, creating a strong brand identity is a dynamic and ongoing process that requires careful consideration of your target audience, brand personality, and visual elements. By investing time and effort into crafting a compelling brand identity, you not only differentiate yourself in a crowded market but also build a lasting connection with your customers. Remember, your brand is not just what you say it is - it’s what your customers perceive and feel about it. So, make it memorable, make it authentic, and make it uniquely yours.", "domain": "design"}

We did it, through four cities, a photo shoot, a season’s TV taping, and two mini vacations. Today I’m wearing a wool dress I made a long time ago from Simplicity 3673—it was the second thing I made after my Burda shirtdress, and probably the first thing I made that I really loved. It fulfilled the promise of making my own clothes for me—I know I could not buy the same dress for anything close to the raw cost of the materials. The material is beautiful, I fitted it carefully, I sewed it slowly and without shortcuts (and added a full lining), and I feel like a million bucks in it. Win!\nI have loved this experiment. I’d never really sat down and thought about my me-made wardrobe before—I just sort of made things willy-nilly as they caught my interest. But this month has taught me to be more intentional about what I make, own, and wear—I don’t need to have lots of clothes, just enough clothes that I feel good in and find beautiful, ethical, well-meant and well-made. I feel like I’ve learned a lot about what is flattering on me and what shapes make me look like a potato sack. And I’m more determined than ever to bring some color into my wardrobe.\nThis challenge has been so inspiring: I love seeing how people are wearing their self-stitched items, and thinking about how to translate my own pile of me-made things into an actual living closet.

But there's more!\nUsing Semantic Technology is Now a Necessity\nSome businesses, developers and even many SEOs (Search Engine Optimizers), believe that semantic technology is still just a luxury which offers little to no benefit. While this may have been true at one time, it has now become a necessity for any website competing for the attention of both users and search engines.\nRDFa technology has become the most effective fashion of presenting a wealth of information about your business to users at the moment in which they are selecting which website they feel will best satisfy their needs.\nAdditionally, Google and other major search engines can better understand and present information from your page, when your site implements RDFa technology, even though the appearance of the content on your page is not affected.\nBy assisting the search engines in understanding exactly what your page is about, your page can be displayed to users that are searching for precisely the information you offer. The search engines always attempt to provide users with the most relevant search results, which is greatly assisted by the use of RDFa.\nThis puts your information in front of highly targeted users, and RDFa also allows the search engines to present the most relevant snippets of data in the search results. The end result is that your pages will be displayed to the right people in the right way, which effectively benefits the search engine, the user and you.\nHow will this Improve your Return On Investment?\nThis equates to a higher CTR (click-through-rate) and greater conversion rate, which is the goal of any online business. Getting more targeted users to your site and into your conversion funnel means more sales.\nAt SEO Workers, we pride ourselves on the high quality of our custom responsive web site designs, with well-formed and valid markup and compliance with all accessibility, usability and search engine guidelines.\nOnly after your web site has met all of the stringent standards above, do we consider our work to be done.

Put in another way, the toolbox available for the today’s roboticists is limited to a rather narrow range of achievable actuation modes (typically combinations of rotary and linear actuations), resulting in the today’s robots being effectively only in modes that are easily achievable by the available techniques. In contrast, soft robotics offers a practically infinite range of achievable actuation modes, enabling mimicking most locomotion modes known from the nature. Previously in the IMS lab, gait of an inchworm and a walking insect have been demonstrated as first instances. For next advancement, a water strider is suggested as a model to be mimicked. This research direction involves development of highly miniaturized and superlight electronics and mechanics, using high-end materials and components. The projected size of the robots is such that it is best viewed (this implies, also assembled) under the microscope. Knowledge in electronics and preparedness for precise work at small scale are beneficial.\nVariable-stiffness soft robotics materials\nSoft robots introduce the need for modulating the stiffness of the materials. In fact, the perspective applications in bioinspired soft robots are not possible without stiffness control. In this package, several robotics concepts are designed and evaluated for stiffness modulation (intrinsic or extrinsic heating, …).\nElectroactive textiles and textile electronics\nThe evolutionary development of artificial muscles at IMS Lab has recently crossed with embedding a textile reinforcement into the structure for more efficient assembly process Evidently, the gain of this additional step is not limited to more repeatable fabrication, but it effectively stitched together two major industrial development directions: soft robotics (represented by the artificial muscle) and wearable electronics (inseparable from utilizing a textile platform). This newfound crossing point creates fascinating opportunities: the artificial muscles are readily embedded into textiles and can be rendered as a true artificial skin. The perspective applications include healthcare, sports, and fashion. This activity involves tuning the material preparation and prototyping of the wearable technologies.\nSeveral subdirections are available:\n- The electroactive textile can be used as an actuator as well as a deformation sensor. However, the optimization criteria are much different. As actuator is already optimized by multiple iterations, the task is to experimentally verify the fabrication parameters for the most efficient sensor. Additionally, a direct one-to-one benchmarking of an electroactive textile based on ionic and electronic effects is an attractive task.\n- New proof-of-concept wearable devices with soft textile-base actuators\n- Distributed electronics specific for large-scale ionic smart textiles.\nPerception of wearable robots\nSoft robotics enables perspective wearable applications for human health monitoring and improvement. More specifically, the mechanical properties of soft robot components can be tuned to closely match the properties of human tissues. This concept is very different from the conventional approach, typically involving a rigid probe touching the human tissue. The aspects of user perception of wearable robots in direct contact with the human body, involving moving or morphing components, is not clear in detail. Aimed at futuristic health improvement technologies, the work involves the design of a soft morphing embodiment attached on the skin and registering the perception by the user. Skills and interests in electronics prototyping and data analysis are desired.\nSoft vacuum-compatible manipulator\nScanning electron microscopy (SEM) offers real-time visualization of nanoscale objects at a resolution beyond the optically achievable. Concurrently, in-situ manipulation of soft samples with SEM feedback is needed. Our soft shape-changing actuators made of an electromechanically active ionic and capacitive laminate (ICL) are attractive as SEM micromanipulators specifically for soft (also biological) samples, gels and liquids. Although the ICLs do contain a liquid electrolyte that traditionally has been considered incompatible, the non-evaporative characteristic of the ionic liquid electrolyte enables stable operation even in vacuum environment. As an important asset, the ICL micromanipulator can be attached with sensors for getting multiscale perception of the soft objects at microscale. This work involves mechanical and electrical design of the micromanipulator, design and integration of a control system (e.g. a haptic glove), assembly, and testing.\n- [Kaasik, Friedrich, et al. \"Scalable fabrication of ionic and capacitive laminate actuators for soft robotics.\" Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical 246 (2017): 154-163]", "domain": "design"}

It also manages air flow, which is crucial for enhancing engine performance.\nA vehicle’s air intake system delivers air to the engine, where it mixes with fuel and is ignited to create combustion. The ICE requires a precise amount of air to mix with fuel for efficient combustion. The air flow rate is determined by the size and design of the engine, as well as the driving conditions. The more air that can flow into the engine, the more fuel it can burn, which results in increased power output and improved performance.\nThere is a trade-off between filtration efficiency and air flow in ICE air filters. Higher filtration efficiency typically means that the air filter can capture more particles and contaminants, which can help protect the engine from damage. It can also mean that the filter is more restrictive to air flow, which can negatively impact engine performance. On the other hand, an air filter with a higher air flow rate can improve engine performance, but it can also reduce the filter's ability to capture contaminants. This can lead to decreased filtration efficiency and potentially harmful contaminants entering the engine.\nTo optimize engine protection and performance, air filter manufacturers strive to strike a balance between filtration efficiency and air flow. The manufacturer’s design of the air filter, including the materials used and the filter's shape and size, is what impact its filtration efficiency and air flow. Some high-performance air filters are designed to provide improved filtration efficiency without significantly restricting air flow, while others are designed to optimize air flow while maintaining an acceptable level of filtration efficiency.\nRoutine replacement of the air filter, as recommended by the vehicle manufacturer, is essential in maintaining the proper air flow and to protect the engine from damage. A dirty air filter can lead to reduced performance and engine damage. To ensure your new air filter has the right balance between filtration efficiency and air flow, make sure that it meets or exceeds OEM specifications.\nLeave a comment", "domain": "design"}

And when you’re selling a home, staging your outdoor space can be an important way to show off one of your home’s best features while attracting prospective buyers.\nWhether your property has a sweeping lawn or a small city balcony, here’s how you can help buyers envision themselves happily hosting an al fresco dinner party, passing breezy summer afternoons on the porch or sipping a glass of wine under the stars—making your home their own.\nToday’s homebuyers want to be able to use their patios, yards and porches like extensions of their living and dining rooms. Show them how it can be done in your home by arranging comfortable, clean-lined outdoor furniture in both lounge and dining settings on your home’s patio. Make an outdoor sofa or sectional the star of the lounge area, and add an outdoor coffee table and side tables to make the space look even more functional. Use an outdoor rug and a few planters or large lanterns to create room-like definition for the space.\nOutdoor rugs also work well under dining tables to add a sense of indoor comfort and texture, and a patio umbrella over the dining table gives the space a fun, festive look. For private showings and open houses, consider leaving a cold pitcher of lemonade and a (covered) plate of treats to tempt buyers to linger and take in the feel of the space.\nIf you’re working with a small space such as a balcony, use a bistro table and chairs to invite buyers to imagine sunny, intimate breakfasts outdoors or unwinding at the end of the day with a cocktail hour for two. A small woven rug or runner can also make the area feel more inviting and special. On a porch, a pair of low lounge chairs with cushions and brightly patterned pillows looks like the perfect spot for watching the world go by. And as with staging the interior of your home, consider placing simple bouquets of fresh flowers on tables for an extra bit of cheer.\nFire Pit, Grill and Lights\nIf the home you’re selling doesn’t have a built-in fire pit, you can purchase a metal one, add some attractive logs and arrange a welcoming grouping of chairs around it on your patio. If you have a nice grill, by all means, shine it up and make it part of your outdoor staging so buyers can imagine themselves hosting a family cookout or holiday weekend barbecue. Consider hooking a new pair of tongs and an oven mitt on the side of the grill for a touch of realism.\nYear-round string lights have become a popular way to make outdoor spaces large and small look festive after sunset, and if you really want to play up your outdoor space as a selling point, consider hanging the lights and asking your photographer to come back and take a few photos at dusk, before it’s truly dark outside. As long as you’re at it, light a few candles on your tables.\nFlowers and Landscaping\nIn the right season, flowers are a foolproof way to improve the look of your outdoor space. The goal should be lush and vibrant, not overgrown or out of control. If you have bare spots in your flower beds, ask an employee at your local garden center for easy-care blooms that will add color and interest for several months. To create a more welcoming vibe on your porch or patio, scatter some clean, neutral pots and planters of various heights filled with pretty but hardy plants—the last thing you want to have to do is replace them if they die before you sell.\nIt’s important to keep your outdoor space ship-shape throughout the selling process, from the day your listing photos are taken until the day you close on the sale. After all, you never know who’s driving by—or even if your first contract will make it to closing. Be sure the grass is neatly mowed and any weeds along the walkways or on the patio are kept in check. Trim the bushes, neatly store away hoses, and add a layer of fresh mulch to your landscaping wherever it looks dried out or faded. Remove anything that adds clutter: old rain bins, plastic storage containers, toys. Rinse and sweep your porch, walkways and patio regularly, knock down cobwebs, check for errant pieces of litter and pick dead blooms off your flowers. If your doormats are looking a little worse for the wear, update with fresh ones.\nMake your home’s outdoor space look tidy, comfortable and lovingly cared for, and buyers will be more motivated to make an offer and start enjoying it right away.", "domain": "design"}

In fact, one can imagine the synthesis engine running on a local machine while the text is generated by some web-based application elsewhere on the net: the advantage of this is that relatively low bandwidth will be required between the machines and high quality audio can be generated locally.\nWhen writing applications that generate SABLE markup it is easy to write in a TTS-engine-independent way. Using relative and descriptive values for attributes such as the PITCH and RATE tags is much more likely to work across synthesizers than absolute values. Also given that engines may potentially ignore tags when they do not support the functionality, the text can be arranged such that this will still sound reasonable.\nSince we primarily see SABLE markup being generated by applications rather than written by hand, using an existing standardized markup paradigm makes this much easier. We also envisage stand-alone applications which can translate existing structured documents into SABLE markup. For example, e-mail messages are structured, and a conversion program could be written that marks headers, quoted sections etc. using SABLE tags that would allow any SABLE-compliant TTS engine to render it reasonably. Converters for existing document formats such as LATEX and MS Word could also be written.\nIn the case where the document format is already an XML/SGML type language, such as HTML, existing document translation systems can be exploited. HTML may be augmented with cascading style sheets (CSS) (http://www.w3c.org/css/) which would make translation to SABLE very simple.", "domain": "design"}

They can bring healing energy towards any situation. Some grids are created for protection, while others are intended to increase love, bring in abundance, or to heal the body, mind, and spirit. A grid can be created for anything that you can think of. While the grid is active it sends healing vibrations out to where they are intended. No fancy materials are required. You can pick up all of the stones you need at the beach, by the river, in the woods, or in your yard. You'll need one larger stone for the center (the generator), six of similar size to be placed around the generator, and then six more of similar size to go around the circle you just laid.\nThe most important part of the grid is the intention you set. The intention tells the grid what your aim is for it, what you are looking to gain. Keep it simple! There is no need to get into a million and one details. That will only serve to confuse the situation. See if you can state it in a few simple words. Follow those words with plenty of heart felt emotion and images for how it will look and feel once your plan comes through.\nI created a grid for Abundance; abundance in health, wealth, and love. I mostly used stones from the beach for my grid with a few from a crystal shop. Colors which represent abundance are gold and green so I chose a gold rock from the beach. I wrote the word Abundance across it to further infuse the abundance energies into it and then I decorated it with some green. I surrounded that stone with some Carnelian I bought at a crystal shop. Carnelian is a wonderful motivator so it will motivate me to do work towards these areas of my life. Carnelian is an earth elemental crystal which makes it physically healing and revitalizing as well. The stones in the outer circle are Quartz. Quartz is considered the Master Healer because it can be programmed to do anything that any other crystal or stone can do. Quartz it is the most readily available crystal, it makes up the majority of our Crystal Kingdom.\nYou may also choose to buy a few stones from the crystal shop to supplement your grid.Small crystals and stones run from about $3-$8 each. Following are some crystals and a few of their associated properties. Citrine is all about abundance, manifesting, and increasing courage. Black Onyx is protective, it absorbs sadness, and is great for grieving. Jade is for luck, love, and abundance. Smoky Quartz transmutes negative energies to positive ones, it's great for pain relief, and is grounding. Your best guide is your intuition so always go with what your gut tells you to do.\nWhy do people set grids atop sacred geometric shapes? When we see crystal grids we usually see them resting on grid clothes with sacred geometric shapes printed on them. Grid sheets are readily available on the web and you can print them for free, grid clothes are available online, or at a metaphysical shop. The stones are laid in sacred geometric patterns to increase the effect of the healing. Sacred Geometry is the language of the universe and by using specific shapes we are partially communicating what we wish to accomplish from the grid. In the Abundance Grid I used the Seed of Life which is the unit cell of the Flower of Life. I was thinking of Abundance as the unit cell of life on earth. We need to be ready to take everything in with an attitude of abundance. Circles simply put are all about creation. Squares represent the earth and protection. Triangles represents empowerment and amplification. Octagons are all about transformation.\nThe most important part of a grid is the intention. You need to have a clear plan for what you'd like to get from a grid and you also need to expect that you will get it. When you lay each stone set them down with intention. Begin with the center stone (generator), writing on that stones or placing a sheet of paper beneath it with your aim written out, can be a great way to begin. Next place a circle of stones around the generator, beginning at the top and moving clockwise. Place these with intent as well. Finally place your outer circle of stones beginning at the top and moving clockwise, again set these with intention.\nBe sure to activate the grid. We do this by connecting all of the crystals and stones with light. Point to the generator stone with your forefinger. Think about the aim for the grid while holding your finger over the generator. Next move your finger around the perimeter of the grid in a circle three times. See all of the stones connecting with an imaginary line of light. Hold the intention for the grid, in your mind's eye, throughout the process.\nFinally meditate with your grid each day. Sit by it and visualize your aim coming into fruition ,watch every detail. Feel the energy of the stones and the intention going out through the generator and into the universe. They are working together to bring you your desire. When the universe sends signs that the grid is working, acknowledge those signs during your meditation. Recognize that your health is becoming more abundant, for example, and expect more to come.", "domain": "design"}

It’s rumored to include an updated primary camera, a new telephoto alternative, and a mysterious third sensor. Reports also suggest a DSLR-like software implementation is being prepared and it now seems as though this may enable an incredible new feature.\nIs 20x zoom on the cards for the Pixel 4?\nAs spotted by YouTuber Brandon Lee from This is Tech Today, the Director of Design at Google, Claude Zellweger, recently posted a photo to his Instagram page which was shot inside the Google Design Studio. The company’s Creative Lead and Industrial Design Manager, Alberto Villareal, subsequently complemented Zellweger on his photo, to which he replied saying it had been shot at “20x zoom” on an unspecified Pixel device.\nWhat else will the Pixel 4 offer in the camera department?\nIn addition to this potential advancement in the software zoom department, the Pixel 4 is also expected to include several other upgrades that’ll be made possible by the new square-shaped camera module which is positioned in the top-left corner.\nPer the latest information, Google’s next flagship will boast an updated 12-megapixel sensor on the rear that’ll act as the primary camera. Accompanying this should be an all-new 16-megapixel snapper which will reportedly be paired with a telephoto lens. It’s unclear at this stage what level of zoom this will support without the improved Super Res Zoom software, but it’ll likely be either 2x or 3x.\nAccompanying these should also be an LED flash and what has previously been referred to as a ‘Spectral Sensor.’ Details about what this can do remain scarce but it could potentially capture information that isn’t available to the naked eye such as x-rays, ultraviolet, and infrared. The sensor may also capture depth data for individual pixels and better identify materials. Overall, the benefits could include better low-light photography and portrait images.\nGoogle Pixel 4 & Pixel 4 XL specifications\nThe upcoming Pixel-branded smartphones are expected to arrive powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 855 paired with 6GB of RAM and the choice of 64GB or 128GB of non-expandable internal storage.\nCompleting the setups will reportedly be 5.7-inch and 6.3-inch AMOLED displays respectively. Both of these panels will support a 90Hz refresh rate but the resolutions will be different. Specifically, the Pixel 4 should offer a FHD+ (2280 x 1080p) resolution and the Pixel 4 XL will reportedly increase it to QHD+ (3040 x 1440p).\nContents are their respective owners.

In case you didn’t see it, we recently purchased a 1999 Foretravel U320 42’ motorhome. Now that we’re settled in and getting used to life in it, I feel more comfortable taking and sharing some pictures. When we originally started looking for a new motorhome I gravitated towards the American Dream/Eagle line of motorhomes. These are very decent but my better half found this Foretravel motorhome. Once I saw a picture of the built in desk I knew I had to see it. And here it is, we own it :) The U320 42’ is a special model and has a couple features that no other model has. One being the extra large desk. No other model has the desk with 2 sides of drawers. Other noteworthy things are porcelain tile throughout which is too weighty without the extra capacity of the tandem axle. The desk has room for the 7 computers, 2 tablets and IP phone (the Geeky Nomads name doesn’t come out of nowhere!). It has the same nice halogen indirect lighting that the rest of the coach has but the desk lighting is independently controlled.\nThe Foretravel U320 is the highest end Foretravel motorhome. It’s basically the same as the U295 but is equipped with a Cummins ISM 450HP vs an ISC 350HP engine. The 42’ version has some additional special features on top of that. One of those is Intellitec Multiplex light switches. This system runs power for 12v devices in the RV back to a central relay panel. Various switch panels (8) in total can control both items relevant to the panel location as well as other things you might care about. For instance you can turn on all of the bright outdoor docking lights while laying in bed. This system didn’t work when we put down our deposit (and it wasn’t the only thing) but the dealer got everything fixed up and we enjoy the system immensely.\nThis is a very unique motorhome - even for a Foretravel U320. It’s the only one I know of where the previous owner opted to install a normal wet trap household flushing toilet. This like most things has pros and cons. The toilet uses 1.6 gallons per flush and fills our black tank within 3-4 days with 2 users. We simply always hold both the gray and black tank since the black fills first. We’ve gotten used to this part of the routine and it’s not a very big deal. When boondocking, this would be a big deal! We are fighting over whether to get a traditional RV toilet or a dual flush household toilet to replace this one with. We’ll work on that when the time comes. A lot of people indicate that a flush toilet would have water splash out of the tank and bowl when under way, or the entire toilet will break or have other problems. Nope. It’s just a household toilet and it works surprisingly well in an RV. No face full of poo smell for us!\nI still smile every time I turn on the headlights. This is the electroluminescent backlight of the dash. It looks even better in person. I didn’t know it did this before we took it home. What a pleasant surprise.\nI don’t weigh an insignificant amount and banging my elbows in the bathroom and shower of our previous motorhome was starting to get old. Enter our new shower - bigger than the master shower of our sticks and bricks home before we sold it!\nEvery window and countertop has accent rope lighting wired up. There are also beautiful halogen indirect lighting in the cupboards along the sides. This thing lights up like a christmas tree and I love light! That’s pretty much it for the notable stuff. Below you’ll see images of the pots and pans drawers and our dishwasher and laser printer in lieu of a washer/dryer. Our apologies for not making the bed - it’s just not something we do.\nLast modified: 21 October, 2014\nCreated: 4 March, 2014", "domain": "design"}

That is the very essence of event branding. However, it’s not enough these days to just distribute flyers and plaster banners. There’s nothing wrong with those tried-and-true methods, but you should be willing to be a bit more off-the-wall and brand your company in a way that garners social media attention.\nConsider these eight ideas for igniting your imagination. Perhaps you can come up with something similar for your next event.\n1. Branding the Food\nWhy brand the food? While guests may be attending for the lectures, workshops, and networking, they’ll nevertheless judge the overall event to a great extent based on the food. If you satisfy their belly, you’ll satisfy their overall impression. Consider these creative ideas for branding the food:\n- Gelatin cups with your logo imprinted onto the top of the jelly\n- Fortune cookies with the logo on the back of the paper fortune\n- Lollipops with the logo imprinted into the surface of the hard candy\n- Club sandwiches with a toothpick flag and the logo imprinted on the flag. Guests may keep these or post it on Instagram due to the cuteness factor alone.\n2. Showcase the Influencers\nMost marketers are familiar with brand advocates. These are loyal followers that frequently share your products and content, either through social media or word-of-mouth. Leverage your top brand influencers as part of the lead-up to your event.\nWanderlust is a yoga and holistic health festival held annually in the U.S. and New Zealand. Think of Coachella but with an emphasis on health instead of music. Take a look at its Instagram page. Most of its photos consist of seemingly random women engaged in outdoor health-related activities.\nYou can do the same for your event. Ask your influencers to share personal pics of themselves engaged in activity related to your brand. With permission, add these to your company Instagram feed.\n3. Use a 360 Camera\nFilm your event while it’s in progress and live stream it using a 360 camera. This enables remote attendees to freely rotate the screen to view the event from multiple angles. With your logo plastered throughout the venue interior, viewers will see your brand as they change angles.\nWatch this video of Infocomm Media Development Authority’s launch event. It uses a 360 camera for its conference, which shows the venue during setup and while the event is underway.\n4. Take-Home Gifts\nBranded take-home gifts aren’t all that unique in of themselves. The usual items include promotional knick-knacks like pens, tote bags, and T-shirts. However, you can personalize these items. For example, you can include a photobooth where guests can take photos containing the logo in the background.\nWith the photo, you can imprint it into a promotional gear, such as on a mug, a T-shirt, or the cover of a notepad. The personalized element makes the item far more special than just a generic item containing the company logo.\nLooking for some ideas and inspiration on ideas for gifts at your next event? Check out this article from SnackNation.\nAdmittingly, branded flyers are useful but pretty lame. In fact, most end up in the garbage or recycle bin. Like promotional gear, though, you can incorporate a unique element to it. Here’s an idea. Include a raffle in your event. However, instead of handing out the traditional numbered ticket, incorporate that right into the flyer. In other words, each flyer has a unique code number and doubles as the raffle ticket.\nCall out the winning code number just before the end of the event. This forces the attendees to keep the flyers at least until the event concludes.\n6. Interactive Kiosks\nRenting a kiosk and customizing it for your event can be a bit pricey but well worth it if you can squeeze it into your budget. Include some sort of game or interactive feature related to your brand. Upon successful completion, the participant receives a voucher they can redeem for a promotional gear.\nWatch this Red Bull video where participants completed an interactive game and received a free can of the energy drink for their efforts.\n7. Experiential Marketing\nExperiential marketing is somewhat of a broad term. It basically means a form of brand engagement involving real-world experiences or simulations relating to the industry. One example came from an event hosted by the food company Lean Cuisine.\nIt did an experiential marketing stint where it filled a room with hundreds of images of scales posted on the wall. Guests would then write their ideal weight on the scale. Alternatively, they can also get creative and write a message or personal goal. Lean Cuisine’s intent was to create voluntary interaction where attendees can freely express their aspirations regardless if it was related to weight loss.\n8. Children’s Activity Book\nIf this is a children-friendly event, then hand out activity books for the young ones. This can include a booklet with fun games like connect-the-dots, mazes, crosswords, etc. Incorporate branded messages into the activities. For example, crosswords can include industry-related terms.\nObviously, you’re marketing to the adults and not the children. However, parents often work on the activities with their children.\nBe creative when contemplating branding ideas for increasing attendee engagement. Unique concepts will more likely create a lasting impression among attendees.\nDan McCarthy is an Event Manager at Mask, an event management company based in the UK.

Good furniture, well designed, can add to any room or space.\nGloria’s pieces can be found with vendor tag #228.\nTracy was introduced to the antique world by her mother, Diane Sigler, herself an original dealer at the Roxy. Tracy started by helping her with antique shows, and one of the first shows they did together was the Tri-City Antique Show at the Fairgrounds in Kennewick. This original show would be later purchased by Ann Steiger and Tracy Pennington, and eventually moved and expanded at the Southridge Carousel of Dreams. Tracy lives in Ellensburg, and has been a mall vendor for 25 years. She officially moved into The Roxy in 2014.

Ann’s curated selections will remain for-sale while inventory remains available.\nThe California fair industry spoke to Ann while she was a member of her home town 4-H club. Upon graduation from college, she launched a 30 year professional career in state fair management.

In the name of “development,” Japanese colonial engineers and urban planners set to work reshaping Korea’s physical landscapes through public works projects: laying railways, restoring rural highways, improving rivers, constructing ports, burying water systems, and paving urban streets. Engineered with projects designed to solidify claims to territory, reify discourses of colonial modernization, and project cultural superiority, Japanese colonial rule in Korea was built as much on the domination of colonial environments as it was on the control of colonial populations.\nAbout the Speaker\nTristan R. Grunow is Assistant Professor without Review in the History Department at UBC. Previously, he was Postdoctoral Fellow at the Reischauer Institute of Japanese Studies at Harvard University. He is currently completing a book manuscript entitled Empire by Design: Tokyo and the Building of Japanese Modernity that charts the respacing of the built environment of Tokyo under the process of Japanese state-formation and empire-building.

Whether you're a business owner, a designer, or an advocate like myself, understanding the basic minimum requirements for accessibility is crucial. In this blog post, we'll break down these foundational elements, which can serve as your stepping stone to understanding more complex regulations and standards.\nClear Floor Space\nMinimum Requirement: 30 inches by 48 inches\nHaving enough clear floor space is the cornerstone of accessibility. This space allows for wheelchair maneuverability and is the starting point for creating an accessible environment.\nMinimum Requirement: 60-inch diameter circle or T-shaped turning space\nWheelchair users need sufficient space to make 180-degree turns. This is especially important in areas like restrooms and kitchens, where turning space can often be limited.\nMinimum Requirement: Side reach between 9 inches and 48 inches; Forward reach between 15 inches and 48 inches\nReach requirements ensure that controls, switches, and other objects are within an accessible range for everyone, including those who may be seated or have limited reach.\nDoor Width and Hardware\nMinimum Requirement: Door width of at least 32 inches; Hardware operable with one hand\nDoors are the gateways to different spaces, and they need to be wide enough to accommodate wheelchairs. The hardware should also be easy to operate.\nRamp Slope and Rise\nMinimum Requirement: Maximum slope of 1:12; Minimum width of 36 inches\nRamps are often used as an alternative to stairs and must have a gentle slope and sufficient width to be accessible. Handrails are usually a must.\nElevator and Lift Dimensions\nMinimum Requirement: Sufficient space for a wheelchair; Controls at an accessible height\nElevators and lifts are essential for multi-level buildings. They need to be spacious enough for wheelchairs and have controls that are easily reachable.\nSignage and Wayfinding\nMinimum Requirement: Easy-to-read signs with Braille and tactile characters\nSignage helps people navigate spaces. For those who are visually impaired, Braille and tactile characters are essential.\nMinimum Requirement: Sufficient turning space; Fixtures at an accessible height\nAccessible restrooms should offer enough space for a wheelchair to turn around. Fixtures like sinks and toilets also need to be at an accessible height.\nMinimum Requirement: Closest to the entrance; Wide enough for van-accessible spaces\nAccessible parking spaces should be as close to the entrance as possible and must be wide enough to accommodate vehicles with ramps or lifts.\nUnderstanding these basic minimum requirements is the first step in creating truly accessible spaces. They serve as the foundation upon which more specific and complex regulations, such as the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) guidelines, are built. By familiarizing yourself with these basics, you're well on your way to making the world a more inclusive place.", "domain": "design"}

In this blog post, we will explore the value of using data visualization tools and techniques to communicate key insights and trends. We will also provide examples of effective visualizations and tips for creating them.\nWhy Use Data Visualization?\nData visualization is important because it helps stakeholders understand complex data sets quickly and easily. By representing data visually, trends and patterns become more apparent, making it easier to identify insights and opportunities for improvement. Additionally, data visualization can help stakeholders remember information more effectively than through text or spoken presentations.\nExamples of Effective Data Visualizations\nEffective data visualizations use clear, concise graphics to present complex data sets in an easily understandable format. Some examples of effective data visualizations include:\nLine charts: Used to display trends over time, such as sales figures or website traffic.\nPie charts: Used to show the proportion of different components in a data set, such as market share by product category.\nHeat maps: Used to display data across a geographic area, such as the prevalence of a disease across different regions.\nBar charts: Used to compare data across different categories, such as revenue by product line.\nTips for Creating Effective Data Visualizations\nTo create effective data visualizations, it’s important to keep a few key tips in mind:\nKeep it simple: Focus on the key message you want to communicate and avoid cluttering the visualization with unnecessary details.\nChoose the right format: Use a format that best represents the data you want to communicate. For example, use a line chart to show trends over time.\nUse color effectively: Use color sparingly and purposefully to highlight key data points or to distinguish different categories.\nLabel axes clearly: Ensure that the labels on the x and y-axes are clear and easy to understand.\nProvide context: Provide context for the data you’re presenting by including relevant information, such as time periods or comparison groups.\nTest and refine: Test your visualization with different audiences and refine it based on their feedback.\nTools for Creating Data Visualizations\nThere are many tools available to create data visualizations, from basic spreadsheet software to more advanced tools such as Tableau or Power BI. These tools make it easy to create visually appealing graphics and can help you quickly identify trends and insights in your data.\nUsing Data Visualization for Decision Making\nData visualization can be a powerful tool for decision making. By presenting data in a clear and engaging way, it’s easier for stakeholders to understand the implications of different decisions and make informed choices. Additionally, data visualization can help identify patterns and trends that may not be immediately apparent through other methods.\nIn conclusion, data visualization is a valuable tool that can help businesses communicate complex datasets to stakeholders in an accessible and engaging way.

It makes me want to bake, decorate and craft all at the same time! I see a pumpkin and all of a sudden I need a Pumpkin Spice Latte and a whole bunch of glitter and I’ll whip up something amazing! Last fall I made a whole bunch of glittered pinecones for a magical tea party that I hosted for a bunch of women who were very dear to my heart. I saved the pinecones (thank goodness) and this year I decided I wanted to use them to create door hangers for my double front doors.\nI struggle with how to decorate my front doors because there are two of them! It’s hard to figure out what I should put on them as decor. I feel like I need two of every decoration and that drives me crazy, especially when I want to make a wreath and know that I have to make two of them. I’ll let you in on a little secret, if you think I’m obsessed with glitter you are totally right, but I also have an obsession with wreaths as well. Call me crazy, but it’s true. When I see an adorable wreath on Pinterest or hanging on my neighbors’ front door, I get super excited, but then immediately annoyed knowing that I’ll have to double my efforts in order to put them on my front doors. Knowing the pain it is to duplicate decor for my front door, I was pretty excited when I came up with this idea to make quick pinecone wall hangers.\nA lot of the stuff I create and do is born out of necessity or because it’s quick, easy, and is made from things I have laying around my house already. I know you may not have all these things magically laying around your house, but I’ll give you a good idea on how to locate the necessary items so that you can quickly make these too.\nThe supplies below are enough needed to make 2 door hangers. If you have only 1 door, you only need 10-12 pinecones.\n- 20-25 Pinecones (Small, Medium and Large Sizes and Shapes) - I found mine in my neighborhood under a couple different pine trees so I could have different shapes and sizes. You can also buy pinecones at any craft store.\n- Mod Podge Gluing Medium\n- Foam Paint Brush\n- White Glitter – Large Flakes and Super Fine Flakes\n- 1in Brown and White Striped Craft Ribbon – 1 yard (For Decorative Bow)\n- 2in Red Wired Craft Ribbon – 3 yards (For Roses)\n- Glue Gun - I personally like the HOT temperature glue guns, I feel like they glue stuff in place better than the low temperature ones.\n- Glue Sticks\n- 2 Paper Plates\nHow To Make Glitter Pinecone Door Hangers:\n- Choose a pinecone and paint it heavily with a layer of mod podge. Mod podge dries clear so don’t worry if it’s not perfect. I like a lot of glitter so I used a lot of mod podge.\n- Over a paper plate, sprinkle the large flake glitter all over the pinecone and shake off the excess. Don’t worry if you don’t cover it completely.\n- Sprinkle the super fine flake glitter all over the pinecone filling in all the spots missed with the large flakes. Cover it completely and shake off the excess. Set the pinecone aside to dry.\n- Repeat the above steps for all the pinecones.\n- While the pinecones are drying, cut twine 28 inches long. Cut as many twine pieces as you have pinecones for.\n- Cut your 1 yard brown and white striped craft ribbon in half into two equal strips - this ribbon is for the decorative bow.\n- Cut two 8″ strips of red wired craft ribbon – these are for the roses that go on the bow.\n- Cut eight 6″ strips of red wired craft ribbon – these are for the roses that go on the pinecones.\n- While you wait for the pinecones to finish drying, you can make the roses. Plug in your glue gun.\n- Take one of the 8″ strips of red wired craft ribbon and fold one of the ends into each other and begin wrapping it around the center. Twist the ribbon as you go and continue wrapping it around the center to make the form of a flower. Place a small dot of glue on the side as you are wrapping around the edge to glue the flower in place. Continue wrapping, twisting, and gluing until you have used all the ribbon. When you reach the end you will glue the ends around the back of the flower to finish it off.\n- Make all 10 roses and set aside. Each of them will look a little different and be a little different in size, which is ok!\n- After all the pinecones are dry and covered with glitter select a larger one and turn it upside down so that the tip is pointing down. Find a small spot where one of the scales of the cone is open and squeeze in some glue.\n- Take a piece of cut twine and secure one end it into the glue, this will hang your pinecone. Make sure you have enough glue to keep the twine secure.\n- Add twine to all of your pinecones.\n- Divide your twined pinecones into two equal piles of number and sizes.\n- Start with one pile and one by one pick up a twined pinecone and start arranging them, holding them by the twine. After all have been arranged nicely tie a knot with all the twine at about a yard in length, or as long as you want them to be. The knot is how they will hang on your door, so you pick the length. After you tie off the knot, and are happy with the length, trim the extra twine ends.\n- Assemble the second set of pinecones and repeat the above step, making sure they equal in length so they look good hanging next to each other on double doors.\n- TIP: I hung my pinecone sets on hooks next to each other and assembled them while they were hanging. This helped me know exactly what they would look like when they were finished, and I also made sure they will even in length.\n- Take your brown and white striped craft ribbon and tie a bow around the twine and slide the bow downward towards the cones to where they are almost touching the top cone of one of the sets of pinecones. Repeat with the other set.\n- Take one of the 8″ roses and glue it right in the middle of the bow. Repeat with the other set.\n- Take four remaining roses and glue them on the top of 4 of the bigger pinecones in one of your sets. Repeat with the other set.\n- Done! Go hang on your front door! Way to go!\nI Promise these are easier than you think! You can also choose different colors of ribbon for your bow and roses if you’d like. I used the colors I had already at home and they just so happen to match a pinecone wreath I made a few years ago that I hang near my front door. You can absolutely do it! Snap a photo if you decide to try them, I’d love to see how they turn out! Way to go momma!", "domain": "design"}

Subramanyan who championed Indian craft traditions, and was also drawn to the freedom of pursuing a medium she was not formally trained in.\nMukherjee rejected conventional materials and techniques associated with studio practice. Weaving and knotting dyed hemp rope, she created complex organic shapes and folds that evoke plants and the human body on a mythical scale.\nHer fibre sculptures were the result of a painstaking process, which meant she could produce only one or two a year.\nMukherjee remained experimental and open-minded throughout her life. She saw artistic possibility in all materials, particularly those traditionally associated with crafts, including wax and clay.

A micro-fridge is small in size, but it meets all of the customer’s needs. So we’ve highlighted a few features to look for.\nThe size of a mini-fridge is usually smaller than that of a standard refrigerator in the kitchen. Still, a larger mini-fridge is preferable because it lasts longer and uses less energy.\nHowever, choose a tiny fridge that fits well in the location where you want to put it, as we all know that just a few mini fridges fit readily beneath the counter.\nIf you want to get the most out of your mini-fridge, get one with adjustable shelves. They give you additional room to keep food and drinks.\nA stable shelf may not always meet your storage requirements. Adjustable shelves also aid in the better organization of food and beverages.\nSingle Door / Double Door / reversible door\nWe all know that small fridges come with various doors, including single, double, and reversible doors. Choose a double door mini fridge if you want a separate freezer door.\nA single door micro-fridge has only one door and stores all of the contents in one location. Furthermore, even to pick up ice, you only need to open one door and adjust the temperature of each product.\nThe use of a double door small fridge is more convenient. A reversible door micro-fridge is simple to operate and may be opened from the left or right.\nThis allows the tiny fridge to fit neatly in the available area. You can also vary the type of opening depending on the available space when moving the fridge.\nIt is the most important feature to examine. If the tiny fridge gets dented or has a part replaced, the guarantee comes in handy.\nBefore purchasing a product, double-check all of the policy’s details.\nAfter use, just a few micro-fridges make extra noise or sound. The noise may be caused by the tiny fridge’s small size and cooling function or by its improper placement.\nBy using a mini-fridge, you can ensure that your guests are not annoyed by the noise.\nA mini-fridge with a lock makes it easier to keep the stock secure. In addition, your youngster does not enjoy opening the refrigerator regularly.\nWith the advancement of technology, micro-fridges now have a plethora of additional capabilities. For example, only a few tiny fridges include automatic defrost, which defrosts the fridge without the need for manual intervention.\nIn addition, a few micro-fridges are beautifully made in the shape of a container or luggage. There are also mini-fridges with alarm features and 3D doors on the market.\nFrequently Asked Questions\nHow can I increase the lifespan of my refrigerator?\nTo extend the life of your refrigerator, follow these steps.\n- The rubber seal must be replaced regularly. If the seal becomes worn, the refrigerator will begin to lose efficiency. Therefore, every year, the gasket should be replaced to ensure that the cold does not escape.\n- Keep any heat sources away from the refrigerator, so the compressor doesn’t have to work extra. The compressor’s life would be cut short as a result. Also, make sure the refrigerator is not directly exposed to the sunlight.\n- Maintain the efficiency of the condenser coil by keeping it clean.\n- We recommend that you utilize indoor water. That way, you won’t have to keep opening the refrigerator to make sure the cold doesn’t escape. The less you open the door, the more efficiently your refrigerators will work.\n- If your refrigerators utilize direct cool defrosting technology, you will need to defrost the interiors for them to function correctly manually.\n- Maintain the temperature between 38 and 4 degrees Fahrenheit. This temperature would keep the food fresh for an extended amount of time. You don’t need the refrigerator’s temperature to be any lower than that.\n- Clean the refrigerator regularly.\n- If you overfill the refrigerator, the cold air will not circulate properly. Its efficiency would deteriorate with time. Allow one to two inches of space between each food item.\n- If you don’t cover the food adequately, moisture will escape into the air within the refrigerator, causing the compressor to work overtime.\n- There could be a problem with the motor, fan, or compressor if you hear any noise. You can hire a technician to help you with the issue.\nWhich is better: direct cool defrosting technology or frost-free defrosting technology?\nIn single-door refrigerators, you’d use cool defrosting technology, and in double-door refrigerators, frost-free defrosting technology. This is because you must manually defrost the interiors of the refrigerator when using direct cool, whereas frost-free will automatically defrost the interiors. The advantage of double-door refrigerators is that frozen food may be stored more effectively.\nCan I improve the efficiency of my refrigerator? How?\n- Yes, you may boost the refrigerator’s efficiency by following these methods.\n- Twice a month, give the refrigerator a thorough cleaning.\n- It should be opened less frequently.\n- Adequately cover the food items.\n- Fill the freezer to the brim.\n- Periodically inspect the seals.\n- For optimal air circulation, leave a few inches between the wall and the refrigerator.\n- To get rid of odours, keep an open box of baking soda nearby.\n- Refrigerate hot foods only if necessary. Allow it to cool before placing it in the refrigerator.\nConcluding Words about the best mini fridge in india\nIn our chosen list, these are the best mini fridge in India.

The non-spill water bowl can be filled with water and then safely left within a car so your pet can drink whenever they want. Great for use in a car, caravan as well as in the home.\nThe innovative design means that though your pet has access to the water in the bowl, water will not spill even when a car is in motion, cornering, braking and so on. This works because the inner section has a floating floor with holes that only allow a mouthful of water through at a time; enough for your dog to drink but not enough to spill. Sudden movement can push the floating floor up preventing spills.\nThe bowl has Velcro® fasteners under its base so that it may be placed on a carpeted surface. The fasteners firmly grip the carpet keeping the bowl fixed in place and preventing the bowl from sliding around. It also comes with four additional adhesive fixing pads which enable you to fix it to plastic, metal and wooden surfaces. This is an ideal solution for those using boot liners in their vehicles.\nAnother benefit is that your dog can only take one mouthful of water at a time, this can prevent it spilling mouthfuls of water over the floor after having a drink.\nIt is made from high quality polypropylene, hygienic, safe and is easily taken apart for cleaning.", "domain": "design"}

As loads increase, the rolling-element bearing deflection exceeds that of the self-acting sleeve bearing. With a further increase in load, the deflection of the externally pressurized bearing exceeds that of the self-acting sleeve bearing. Thus, the least rigid bearing at light loads becomes the most rigid at heavy loads. Stiffness of the rolling-element bearings could be increased by a switch to roller bearings or preloaded, angular-contact ball bearings.\nDeflection at the bearing -- or at the load point in the bearing-shaft system -- is often important, especially in machine tools and precision instruments. Deflection of overhung loads can be particularly critical since the stiffness at the loading point is sometimes less than 10% of the basic bearing stiffness.\nSelf-lubricating bearings: Boundary-lubricated or self-lubricated bearings provide high stiffness once they have been loaded heavily, but they are the least stiff under light and moderate loads. This bearing type can be troubled by stick-slip operation and by erratic torque response from variation in surface lubrication.\nSleeve bearings: While the shaft in a fluid-film bearing does deflect with load, this movement is predictable. Although the running position of a machine spindle supported by sleeve bearings may be quite different from the static position, the change can be accounted for and the spindle operates smoothly in the deflected state.\nRolling bearings: These usually provide more precise shaft positioning than journal bearings. Preloaded angular-contact and tapered roller bearings are particularly rigid and are commonly used in machine tools. Shaft position is more predictable under varying loads. Running and static positions are nearly the same. Where extreme precision is required, rolling-element bearings may exhibit objectionable elastic deflection and excessive fluctuations from variations in element roundness. Here, externally pressurized bearings may be required.\nHydrostatic bearings: This type provides minimum deflection and the most precise shaft positioning while operating smoothly. Machine tools using this type of bearing can grind parts round to within 2 µin. with a 1-µin. surface finish. The pressure system can be either gas or liquid. Gas systems are often used in lightly loaded applications, while liquid systems are normally used for heavily loaded systems.", "domain": "design"}

These spaces, which are usually just high enough for someone to crawl through, are incredibly efficient when it comes to protecting the first floor of your home, as well as providing you with a good amount of storage without having to worry about the maintenance of an entire basement. However, many crawlspaces are laid down with a simple dirt floor, which can become quite troublesome as time goes on. Adding crawl space encapsulation to this area can be a great way to avoid these issues.\nThis encapsulation is done by adding a layer of polythene sealed with a specific tape which then acts as a barrier between your home and the ground itself. Combined with a dehumidifier and good insulation, you’ll be amazed by how incredibly efficient this addition can be. However, many homeowners are left wondering whether or not the investment is truly worth it. Here are some of the pros and cons of crawl space encapsulation to help you decide whether or not this is the best decision for your home.\nCrawl Space Encapsulation Pros And Cons\nHave you had to use significantly more energy in order to keep your home at the preferred temperature? This could be due to your crawlspace. The lack of insulation in these areas can easily cause the loss of temperature control in your home as you are literally sitting directly on top of the open ground. By adding a crawl space encapsulation, you’ll be giving yourself that extra barrier that will act as a shield, protecting your home from the naturally hot or cold air from the outside, and keeping your perfectly set air circulating efficiently around the home.\nNot only will this have a tremendous effect on the amount of energy you spend, and, thus, your monthly electric bills, but it can also dramatically impact the air quality in your home. When you have an open crawl space underneath the first floor, it’s incredibly easy for dust, dirt, and vapors to make their way up to your living area. This can be a particular problem for those with breathing conditions such as allergies or asthma. Your home is meant to be one of the most comfortable places for you and your loved ones to be, so why force yourselves to breathe polluted, particle-filled air? By investing in this quality addition, you can rest assured knowing that you’re breathing clean, clear air day in and day out.\nProtection From Rodents and Other Pests\nAnother serious issue that many crawl spaces can cause will be infestations of rodents and other pests. The dark and isolated nature of the crawl space, as well as the limited number of times you actually need to go down there, make them the perfect location for these unwanted house guests to make themselves right at home. Not only is this an aggravation and annoyance, but it can also be a serious strain on the structure of your home, not to mention your health. Luckily, adding a quality encapsulation can be the perfect solution. This protective barrier will significantly limit the number of ways these pests can enter into the crawlspace and the unfamiliarity of the material will act as an instant deterrent for anything looking to make its home underneath your own.\nOne of the biggest problems that home’s with crawl spaces face is the amount of moisture that can collect there. This is particularly true for home’s built in more water prone regions such as waterfront properties or coastline houses. Typically, standard ventilation will be enough to keep this from becoming a serious problem, but because crawl spaces are so small, there won’t be enough natural air flow to actually make a difference. Adding encapsulation is the best way to protect your home, especially the foundations, from the serious damage this moisture can cause. While you’ll definitely want to add an extra waterproofing barrier just to be sure, these protective layers will help keep your home in prime condition for years to come.\nMaintain Structural Integrity\nWhen your home is having to face pest infestations, humidity, and a lack of insulation between its first floor and the ground, the amount of strain that’s put on the overall structure can be devastating. Adding an encapsulation is a great way to protect the structural integrity of the home. First, pests can easily decide that your home is not only a great place for them to live, but also an all you can eat buffet. Many pests, including rats and termites, will love gnawing down on the wood in your home for food and comfort, which can seriously compromise its safety and strength.\nAdditionally, wood and drywall can be dramatically impacted by the collection of moisture. Having to compensate for this can end up costing you an unbelievable amount of money as time goes on. Rather than leaving yourself open to these potential problems, making that one-time investment can make a world of difference in terms of the overall safety of your home and the final amount you end up having to pay to ensure its integrity.\nNo More Mold\nOne of the most aggravating problems that homeowners can face as a result of open crawl spaces will be the unbelievable amount of mold that can turn up as a result. This can be especially problematic for homeowners with carpeted floors, as you’ll need to pay for constant professional cleanings or even complete replacements on a constant basis. Because crawl space encapsulations address the issue of moisture almost instantly, there will be a dramatic reduction in the amount of mold or fungi your home needs to deal with. Of course, this is a great benefit aesthetically speaking, as no one wants to live in a moldy home, but it can also be extremely necessary in terms of health.\nMany molds can dramatically impact the overall well-being of many, particularly when there are children or elders living in the home. By adding this additional barrier between you and these issues, you can feel secure that you and your loved ones are living in a safe and protected environment year after year.\nOf course, the biggest drawback that many homeowners will need to face when adding a crawl space encapsulation will be the cost. These additional barriers can end up being quite expensive, especially when you hire quality professionals that use the best possible materials on the market. However, there are many installation teams that understand the strain this can put on your household in terms of finances and will do everything they can to work with you and your budget.\nAt the end of the day, as a homeowner, you need to decide whether or not the initial cost of the encapsulation is greater than the risk you will be taking with the final payouts from the damage the lack of it could potentially cause. This could depend highly on the area your home is located in, the local climate, and even your current investments in terms of pest control. Speak with a local installer and see how they could work with you to give your home that extra protection without breaking the bank.\nAnother serious problem that many homeowners can face as a result of an encapsulation addition can be the inconvenience that comes along with it. Many homes are designed with the crawl space acting as the main location for heating systems and other electrical systems. As a result, when you need to have maintenance or servicing done on these systems, these professionals will need to have access to the area, which can be difficult when you’ve had an encapsulation installed. This could result in even higher maintenance bills for you, adding yet another financial pressure you’re simply not looking to add. It’s important that you consider the overall layout of your home and look at all of the ways this inconvenience could possibly be avoided ahead of time.\nHaving a home with a crawl space can be a great way to avoid the stresses and inconveniences that come with full, standard basements. However, these spaces can also come with their own set of aggravations and annoyances, especially when it comes to the direct connection with the ground itself. Adding a crawl space encapsulation is a great way to take away your concerns regarding moisture build up, temperature control, and even pest control. Keeping your family safe and healthy must always be a priority; however, it all comes with a price. It’s up to you to decide whether or not this price tag is worth the benefits it can bring with it. Take these pros and cons into careful consideration and speak with installation experts about the ways in which they can work directly with you in order to keep your home in prime condition for years to come.", "domain": "design"}

KG is a leading global manufacturer of placement, assembly and rework systems for customers in the microelectronics industry. This year, the company celebrates its 30th anniversary.\nIt all started in a rented apartment in Berlin-Friedrichshain: shortly after German reunification, an East Berlin engineer – owner of an ingenious patent on how to align electronic components with each other with high precision – and two colleagues built and marketed the first placement and assembly system based on the so-called FINEPLACER® functional principle. The original FINEPLACER® was an amazingly simple platform with a swivel arm and a fixed optical beam splitter. Then and now, the motto was “simply accurate”, which is still the brand essence of Finetech.\nWith the FINEPLACER® systems, Finetech set new standards in precision assembly of semiconductor products. Continuously improved and updated over the years, the placement and assembly systems today master complex micro assembly applications with a placement accuracy of up to 0.3 micrometers. Flexible expandability via function modules enables the use of a wide range of bonding technologies, and ensures that the machines can be adapted to new tasks throughout their entire service life. Quality optics developed specifically for Finetech, dispensing technology and the very stable design of the machines enable particularly accurate and reliably repeatable assembly processes at all times.\nThis is complemented by a second business area. Finetech’s so-called hot gas repair systems are also based on the FINEPLACER® principle and are powerful solutions for the professional rework of SMD assemblies. They combine all the capabilities for the rework of modern electronics, such as extremely precise thermal management, adapted soldering tools and the integration of diverse support processes. Only in such a way can individual components, some of them being barely larger than a grain of sand, be reliably desoldered and soldered in place even on extremely densely populated circuit boards.\nInnovations today for the world of tomorrow\nIn the segment of die bonder systems for research and development, Finetech is now the market leader and supports customers of all sizes and industries on their way from the concept to the production of innovative semiconductor products. To this end, the Berlin-based company brings people and technologies together, advises researchers, developers and production managers worldwide, and provides them with the appropriate tools to find technical solutions to the complex future issues of our time.\nThe main driving force for Finetech is to facilitate the development of innovative semiconductor products with integrated process and machine concepts for high-precision die attach applications. In order to support customers already in the development phase and to accompany them in the transfer of their processes to series production, Finetech has systematically expanded its portfolio of automated die bonders in recent years. Complementing the manual R&D equipment for laboratory and clean room, the semi- and fully automated production systems combine process flexibility, high accuracy and speed.\nFinetech’s unique selling points: a cross-system machine architecture, standardized function modules and identical operating software on manual and automatic systems. This means that product developments from the initial concept to automated series production can be implemented completely frictionless within Finetech’s technological ecosystem. Finetech calls this approach “Prototype-to-Production”. The big advantage: technological hurdles and investment risks in the development of innovative semiconductor products are largely eliminated.\nIn close partnership\nFinetech serves companies and organizations from a wide range of industries, including data and telecommunications, industrial semiconductor, consumer electronics, medical technology, aerospace, automotive, defense & security, and energy, as well as universities and institutes. The worldwide installed base of machines includes start-up companies as well as international corporations, the R&D departments of major OEMs, publicly funded laboratories, and a variety of academic institutions.\nFor this, Finetech relies on a trusting and long-standing partnership with its customers – many have grown together with the Berlin-based company and have implemented countless projects on Finetech machines.\nAs the customers’ needs are highly individual, off-the-shelf solutions are not expedient. In Finetech’s Application Center with its state-of-the-art cleanroom technology, the feasibility of processes is evaluated on the basis of customer samples and machine configurations tailored to the customer requirements can be thoroughly tested.\nBased in Berlin, at home in the world\nAs a regional employer, Finetech is firmly rooted in its home in Berlin-Marzahn. Since 2015, Finetech has been operating from its own state-of-the-art production and development center in the CleanTech Business Park, a location for clean technology companies promoted by the state of Berlin and, at 90 hectares, the capital’s largest inner-city industrial park in the future. Thanks to fast transport routes, a well-trained workforce and intensive networking opportunities with Berlin’s research landscape, Finetech finds ideal conditions here for manufacturing and distributing its high-precision placement and assembly systems and serving its global customer base.\nAt the company headquarters in Berlin alone, highly qualified engineers, designers, software developers, skilled workers and other specialists from more than a dozen nations are working toward the shared goal.

Welcome to this first post on the Maverick blog. In this post I shall be explaining what Maverick Synth is all about.\nMaverick Synth exists because MUSIC MATTERS. I believe that music should be exciting – music should have attitude.\nI believe music matters:\nMusic should be more important than something to fill up your ears while partying.\nMusic should have passion, anger, attitude, intensity.\nMusicians & producers should want to stamp their identity on the music scene – create their own sound – push back the boundaries.\nMusic should be exciting.\nElectronic Music Lacks Excitement\nMusic in general and electronic music, especially, has lacked excitement for quite a long time now. When did you last hear something that made you think “Wow what’s that?”, something that really made you sit up and take notice?\nMaverick aim to put some of the excitement and originality and attitude back into making electronic music. To do this, we aim to introduce new sounds, new user interfaces and put some of the performance element back into electronic music.\nLearning from Experience\nMaverick Synth is the culmination of working for many years in high technology music. I started off designing synthesizers and sound processing gear for Novation and then Redsound. I was also involved heavily in the development of the Copperlan protocol.\nAbove all, I have spent many, many hours thinking about musical sounds – the way they’re created and the way they are played.\nI got to thinking, if I started from scratch, what kind of synthesizer would I design?\nI decided I would most like to put into a synthesizer is attitude – the rest is just coding. So what sort of attitude? Well the flying V guitar (pictured) has got to have more attitude than just about any other musical instrument which got me to thinking:\n“I want design a synthesizer you can play with your teeth.”\n“I want to design a synthesizer that features sweat in its specifications.”\n“I want to design a synthesizer that your mother would disapprove of you owning.”\nOK, so it’s pretty unlikely that anyone could come up with a VST plugin with the same amount of attitude as an electric guitar. But, I look on the quote above as more of a mission statement – something to aim at.\nIn the mean time, I hope you find The Pulsor exciting and creative and I hope you enjoy reading this blog.\nChris Pidd – creator of The Pulsor.", "domain": "design"}

What GT6, or any Gran Turismo for that matter, offers is a chance to get as close as possible to the cars we love that we can’t drive in the real world. This is especially true for concept cars. Most concept cars never make it to production, and when they do, they usually end up resembling so little of the concept that it turns out to be a disappointment.\nConcept cars always look so much better than production cars because the design team has no boundaries or regulations to follow. The FT-1 is no different, as it simply looks fantastic.\nThe new concept will be available as downloadable content in Gran Turismo 6, the popular auto racing video game. It is part of the “Vision Gran Turismo program,” which is giving automakers a chance to show off upcoming design ideas through stunning in-game concept cars.\nWithout expressly saying that this a concept version of the upcoming Supra successor, Toyota coyly announced on its UK blog that, “this is the only image available at the moment but any talk of Toyota and new sports cars always leads to speculation on the introduction of a spiritual successor to the Supra.”\n- More than 1200 cars on 33 locations with 71 different layouts\n- Creating the most authentic true-to-life driving experience based on a fully enhanced suspension, tire, and aerodynamics model\n- Create and customize your own race circuit on world renowned locations spanning several tens of square kilometers\n- Form and manage your own communities & events from local, domestic to global\n- Extend your Gran Turismo experience anywhere through Smart Phone, Tablet or PC\nLet’s hope it drives as well as it looks, digitally of course.\nIt was next to the Mercedes-Benz stand at the NYIAS and it stole most of the show-goers away from the German automaker’s. So when GT6 and Toyota announced that they would be making an FT-1 for the new game new game, with a 30 second teaser video, it obviously got all of us excited. It’s called the FT-1 Vision GT Concept, and it looks spectacular with it’s scoops, louvers and all that exposed carbon fiber.\nThere are no details on the car currently, but it is a popular belief that the new Supra will be the result of a collaboration between BMW and Toyota.\n“We never comment on speculation but it’s clear that there are familiar proportions in the shape of the silhouette,” Toyota finished, all but confirming that this a new Supra concept.\nUpdated 08/14/2014: Toyota unveiled the official details and images on the FT-1 Vision Gran Turismo Concept set to be offered for Gran Turismo 6 users from September. Details after the jump.\nAnd wouldn’t you know it, the North American International Auto Show is a little over a month away from opening its doors.

The flap at the top is the reverse side of the BoBunny paper and the peg holding the bag closed is covered in the same paper.\nThe second bag is made from my gorgeous Teresa Collins cardstock, the flap at the top is the reverse side of the cardstock. I punched two holes and threaded through ribbon from my stash. The pinecones and the 25 are from Tim Holtz dies. The 25 has been covered in Rock Candy Distress Glitter to give a subtle sparkle.\nIf you do visit I hope you will leave me a comment, I love to read them all and I will always do my best to return the compliment.

The colour by long tradition associated with Saint Mary The Virgin is 'liturgical' blue, and her symbol is the madonna lily, which appears conspicuously in the City Coat of Arms. The City-University association is evoked in the academic dress by the use of the colour (Stewart Blue - BCC149) nearest to 'liturgical' blue in the robes of the principal officers of the University; in the facings of the Rector's robe; in the body of doctors' robes and capes of doctors' hoods; and in the yokes and frontal embellishments of student gowns. Both Scotland and The Virgin Mary are called to mind by the use of the thistle and by the fleur-de-lis (as an echo of the lily) in preference to the more usual frogging on the sleeves of the Chancellor's and Vice Chancellor's robes.\nA robe of Stewart blue (BCC149) damask with bag sleeves, the latter having an inverted T arm-slit braided in gold. The sleeves are decorated with a gold wire fleur-de-lis at the shoulder, above the arm-slit, and with four pairs of gold wire thistles below the arm-slit, each pair separated from the next by a single gold wire fleur-de-lis. The robe is long, reaching to within 3 or 4 inches of the ground, and is faced and trimmed with gold braid. It has a flap collar and a short train*, the rear having a central inverted pleat trimmed on the edges with gold braid and headed by a single gold fleur-de-lis, two gold thistles being disposed one on either side of the pleat a little below the fleur-de-lis.\nHeaddress: trencher cap in Stewart blue velvet, braided and tasselled in gold.\n*train for the first Chancellor, Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, only\nA robe of Stewart blue damask with bag sleeves, the latter having an inverted T arm-slit braided in silver.

The robe for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy is similar to the black Master's gown (see 'Masters' below) with the addition of Stewart-blue facings. The doctoral hood is worn with this robe.\nHeaddress: (other than for PhD) black velvet Tudor bonnet with silk cord of the degree colour. PhD: black trencher cap with eggshell blue tassel.\nBlack stuff gown of traditional style with bag sleeves, the point facing forward.\nHoods: shape as for Doctors' hoods but with cape obverse and cowl exterior in black ottoman.For degree colours see Appendix.\nHeaddress: black trencher cap with black silk tassel.\nGowns as for Masters.\nHoods: shape as for Doctors and Masters, but trimmed on the cowl edging with white fur or fur substitute; the lining colours as for the appropriate Doctors' or Masters' degrees; cape obverse and cowl exterior in black ottoman.\nHeaddress: as for Masters.\nA gown of nap material in Union Jack red (BCC210) with cape sleeves and with a yoke and collar and abbreviated square patch facings in serge or flannel of Stewart blue.\nHeaddress: black trencher cap with black silk tassel.\nHonorary doctoral graduands are habited for the degree ceremony in the full attire of the degree conferred.\nThe Chancellor's Assessor and the Rector's Assessor if graduates of any university may wear the academic dress appropriate to their degree.

It may be beneficial to have the gutters match the exterior paint color. This method allows the gutters to become less of a visual element for the home.\nWhat color is the home’s trim? Often homeowners accent their home’s curb appeal by purchasing gutters which match the trim found on its windows and doors. Depending on the type of home, this could improve its visual harmony allowing the gutters and trim work together to “outline” the home.\nWhat color is the home’s roof? One school of thought is to make your gutters the same color as the roof so that they don’t call attention to themselves. This helps your gutters to be seen as an extension of the roofline rather than a distraction.", "domain": "design"}

After hearing a friend rave about Kevin’s custom hiking boots, I decided to try a pair of his boots for myself. Still new after only three trial runs, the boots are already proving to be a wise investment.\nFor comparison sake, I intentionally wore one boot of my store-rack pair (Vasque brand boots with a similar design), and one boot made by Kevin for a jaunt last evening. Aside from the fact that the boot from Kevin is simply a more attractive design, the level of comfort and functionality surpassed my Vasque boot.\nThe first thing I noticed was the difference in roominess for my toes. My fairly wide feet have generally fit snugly in my Vasque boots, but well enough for me to not even think about it. The boot from Kevin, the exact width match for my foot, opened my eyes to new levels of boot comfort! Interestingly, I found that the extra spread for my wide feet better engaged my feet and provided better traction.\nThe arch support, also customized to my feet, played a part in this new level of traction as well. There is simply no comparison here between the two boots. Having an arch support that directly aligns each foot individually provides outstanding comfort – a direct engagement between foot, boot and earth – that cannot be matched with a generic fit.\nCustom arches translate into enhanced gait mechanics as well. When extending my foot forward in normal gait, heel on the ground, my generic boot slightly forces my toes higher, out of normal alignment. The boot from Kevin allows my foot to extend normally in that process, closer to barefoot walking, and provides a more efficient step. This difference certainly surprised me as I’d never really thought to notice before!\nFinally, when I returned home and took the boots off, and looked at them side by side, the difference in material mass caught my eye. Kevin’s construction of the boot slims down the use of materials, therefore inherently adding efficiency with less weight. My Vasques not only use more padding to compensate for a generic fit, but also more sole where I don’t need it.\nAll in all, I am convinced that the boots Kevin made for me are exactly what I bargained for – an experience of superb comfort and function well worth the expense. With their uncommon balance of design, true comfort and fit enhancing functional qualities, I expect to be wearing them for years to come.", "domain": "design"}

A brand new service is ready to show you the weather in a new way. The old mobile website was designed before smart phones became common. With the new design, we have emphasized on utilizing the benefits of the touch screens.\nThe current changes for Yr affects only the mobile website. Yr on PC and mobile apps remains unchanged.\nBenefits of the new mobile website\nThe new website utilizes the touch screen on today's modern mobile phones.\nWe have designed a new flow of interaction in which we benefit from the touch screen and swipe function for a more seamless transition between detailed daily view and long-term forecast.\nWhat is new?\nNew seamless transition between the short-term and long-term forecast. For the long-term forecast, you scroll vertically. If you would like to see the detailed forecast, click on a day and swipe horizontally.\nImprovements to search: Did you know that you can search for more than 10 million worldwide locations on Yr? The location database has been updated, and in addition we have added a \"Nearby\"-button. Using this button, you can quickly find the weather for your location, in case you do not want to type the name or don't know the nearest location name where you are. Click on the search area, and the button will be displayed.\nSummary of the day: In the overview, we are now summarizing the most important information for the day: Maximum and minimum temperature, total precipitation and maximum wind strength.\nWeather graph: A new feature on our website is the weather graph, displaying the forecasted weather situation over 10 days. For now, you will see weather symbols, precipitation, wind strength and direction. This graph is showing the next 9 day, and by clicking on a day, the graph will expand to display the details.\nProbability of precipitation: As you may have experienced, the weather forecast does not always describe what actually happens, but is a prognosis for the expected weather. And because many understand the forecasts solely based on the weather symbols, it can be difficult to communicate the uncertainty: Sometimes we display a weather symbol without precipitation, but there might still be a small chance of some rain. This is why we are now displaying the probability of precipitation.\nRedesign of the precipitation map: Some users tell us their main reason for using our mobile website is the precipitation map (radar). This map shows you how clouds and showers are moving and give you updated information about precipitation in the region – more information than what we can show using the weather symbols.\nThe new precipitation map has been designed with a blue-scale color map to consider color blindness (as the previous color map included red and green). The precipitation map is available for the Nordic region.\nImproved readability: In addition to larger clickable areas, we have focused on improved readability with larger fonts and more space.\nNew graphical design: The new website includes our new Yr logo and new weather symbols. The same symbols are used by the TV weather forecasts at NRK.\nWe always appreciate your feedback!Send us your comments to the new websites by using the form below.", "domain": "design"}

We draw from Drupal's official source code, third party modules, and the practical experience of our subject matter experts.\nWe tell learners how each unit fits into the learning path, and explain not only what to do, but how to think about the topic being discussed.\nWe use learning materials and sample code created and peer-reviewed by subject matter experts.\nOur sample code is correct and up to date. This means the code is not deprecated, follows recommended practices, and adheres to code and documentation standards.\nLearners have access to an authentic learning environment: a practice / learning environment that closely resembles real-world conditions.\nAuthentic Learning Environments\nWhere many online training systems require learners to passively receive information, we design units with small bits of new information and encourage learners to put their newly acquired insights into practice immediately.\nWe keep the practice environment as close to real-world conditions as we can by giving: each learner access to a private Drupal sandbox site and a fully featured Cloud IDE.\nDrupal Sandbox sites\nOur sandbox sites are private, isolated, and up-to-date. This encourages learners to practise without fear: nobody can see their mistakes, they can only break their own site (not anyone else's), and they can reset things at any time.\nDrupal Cloud IDE\nOver the years we thoroughly tested and compared various web-based code editors such as Codiad, AWS Cloud9, Code Server, Ace Editor, and finally settled on Theia, a fully featured IDE with syntax highlighting, code completion, step-by-step debugging, git integration, and a terminal emulator.\nMost importantly though, Theia is opensource software and uses Monaco, the same user-facing editor found in the widely used Visual Studio Code desktop IDE.\nBy using a Cloud IDE as a teaching tool we not only teach concepts and practices, but also effectively prepare learners to work with commonly used IDEs.\nAs a result, the experiences from which learners create and internalise problem-solving strategies are directly transferable to the real world.\n- We make learning materials personally and culturally relevant.\n- We create a learning environment that's as close to the real world as we can make it.\n- We encourage experimentation, and devise exercises and labs projects in such a way that learners form strategies that naturally transfer from the learning environment to the work environment\nMeyers, N.

At El Campo Carpet One Floor & Home in El Campo, TX we’re all about making each possibility accessible to our clientele. That’s why we not only offer one of the most impressive luxury vinyl inventories in the region: our staff members are always current on the latest products and innovations. This allows us the privilege of helping you obtain the finest flooring possible for your style, space, and tastes.\nThere’s truly a lot to love about luxury vinyl. With so many choices for you to ponder- product type, colors, styles, textures, and dimensions- it’s easy to create the exact look you’d had in mind. In addition, luxury vinyl flooring is easy and simple to maintain and requires very little upkeep. Let’s take a closer look at this resilient flooring family, and why it’s often the perfect alternative to hardwood, stone, or tile.\nTypes of Luxury Vinyl Flooring\nThe world of luxury vinyl flooring continues to grow at a rapid pace, leaving consumers with more and more choices to consider. Luxury vinyl planks- which look and often feel identical to hardwood planks- are a durable choice for those seeking a wood look for places like bathrooms and basements, while vinyl tile offers similar alternatives for those who love ceramic, stone, or porcelain. For those on tighter budgets, there’s sheet vinyl. Sheet vinyl is a tried and true classic that’s improved tremendously in recent years.\nIs luxury Vinyl Flooring Waterproof?\nThe short answer is yes…and no. As it stands now, not all vinyl is created equal. Although all vinyl flooring is considered moisture ready, only certain varieties are fully waterproof. For areas where waterproof flooring is a nonnegotiable, including certain commercial settings, you’d be wise to consider WPC or rigid core.\nWhere can you Install Luxury Vinyl Flooring?\nDepending on which option you opt for, you can install vinyl flooring pretty much anywhere under your roof. There is luxury vinyl flooring choices that are fit for both commercial and residential sites, with new products being introduced on the regular.\nOur Luxury Vinyl Flooring Selection\nEl Campo Carpet One Floor & Home is proud to be your friendly neighborhood flooring expert.

Our Troy, AL design group primarily focuses on aftermarket design while the Baltimore, MD design group is primarily new equipment. AirTek has extensive experience modifying the various OEM style precipitators to incorporate the modern practices used in AirTek’s design to upgrade performance and reliability.\nAirTek is an electrostatic precipitator OEM as well as an air emissions system solution provider. We have experience with wet and dry scrubbing systems, fabric filters, SCRs, dry sorbent injection systems, mechanical dust collectors and fans. We can integrate and assemble “System Solutions” that are tailor made to meet your emission challenges.\nAirTek has a staff of experienced Field Service Engineers that can help evaluate your equipment and unit operating conditions to ensure reliable operation. Our staff includes control, electrical, and mechanical system specialist who work with air pollution control equipment on a fulltime basis. As such, they have the knowledge base required to quickly review and analyze your problem to identify probable causes and solutions. The field service department:\n- Perform routine maintenance inspections\n- Provide reports detailing findings and recommended future work\n- Provide troubleshooting assistance\n- Respond to emergency calls\n- Provide start-up and commissioning services\nAirTek routinely assists our customers with recommendations to ensure their equipment maintains a high level of reliability and meets performance requirements. Our field service department relays reliability/end-of-life concerns to the engineering group for analysis and recommendations. We communicate the concerns and recommendations to our customers and provide budgetary planning estimates to provide ample time to rectify the issue before it becomes debilitating.\nWhen performance of the unit is a concern or the boiler capacity is being upgraded, our applications engineers can determine what changes, if any, will be required to meet the desired outlet emissions. Typical areas in which improvement can be made are additional collecting area, redesign of plate/electrode geometry, electrical power sectionalization or enhancement, flue gas flow modifications, and controller upgrades.\nPrecipitator Control Upgrades\nSince it is often advantageous to match new controller upgrades to similar systems at a given facility, AirTek does not promote any OEM precipitator control system. We have experience installing every major OEM voltage controller, rapper controller, and management system. If the customer is not partial to any given controller, we can recommend an OEM system based on the customer’s performance needs, regulatory compliance monitoring requirements, and budgetary concerns.\nController retrofits can be performed during any routine maintenance outage. In most cases, the majority of the existing auxiliary equipment (enclosures, breakers, contactors, etc…) can be reused only requiring the proprietary components to be replaced.

With a growing preference for cremation, cemeteries in Indiana, PA, have adapted to offer these unique and meaningful memorial options. This article explores the concept of cremation niches, their benefits, and customization possibilities for families seeking a modern approach to memorializing their loved ones.\nUnderstanding Cremation Niches\nCremation niches are specially designed spaces within a columbarium – a dedicated structure for housing cremated remains. These niches provide a permanent and secure resting place for urns containing the ashes of the deceased. Available in various sizes and configurations, niches can accommodate individual or multiple urns, allowing family members to be memorialized together.\nThe Benefits of Cremation Niches\nSpace-efficient: As land for traditional burials becomes scarcer, cremation niches provide a space-saving alternative. Columbaria are compact structures, making efficient use of available space and allowing cemeteries to accommodate more families.\nCost-effective: Cremation niches are generally more affordable than traditional burial plots. They offer a budget-friendly option for families who wish to have a permanent memorial without the higher costs associated with burial.\nLow-maintenance: Niches require minimal maintenance, as they are often housed within weather-resistant structures. This eliminates the need for ongoing upkeep, such as landscaping or monument cleaning.\nPersonalization: Cremation niches offer numerous opportunities for personalization. Families can choose from a variety of materials, designs, and engravings to create a unique tribute that reflects their loved one’s personality and interests.\nCustomizing Cremation Niches\nMaterial selection: Columbaria can be constructed from various materials, including granite, marble, and bronze. The choice of material plays a significant role in determining the appearance, durability, and cost of the niche.\nDesign options: Cemeteries often provide a range of pre-designed options, but families can also work with designers to create custom designs that incorporate meaningful symbols, patterns, or artwork.\nEngraving: Personalizing a niche with engravings adds a touch of individuality to the memorial. Names, dates, and personal messages can be etched or engraved onto the niche’s surface.\nGlass-front niches: For those who prefer a more visually appealing display, glass-front niches allow families to showcase their loved one’s urns and other small mementos, such as photographs, within the niche.\nCremation niches offer a modern and customizable solution for families seeking to honor their loved ones in a unique way. Cemeteries in Indiana, PA, provide a range of options to accommodate various preferences and budgets. By considering the benefits and customization possibilities of cremation niches, you can create a lasting tribute that reflects your loved one’s personality and values.

If you love (or just started loving) the outdoors, glamping and picnicking are among the many options of activities you can take up for a good dose of fun while out there in the wild. Most outdoor enthusiasts find themselves wanting to combine the two, especially when adventuring with family, loved ones, or a romantic partner! However, your experience will only be as good as how well you prepare for your trip and the items you bring so we compiled a list of fantastic glamping picnic ideas that will add a bit of pizazz to your next campsite visit.\nIndeed there are lots of glamping picnic ideas but in our opinion, to make your experience extra posh, luxurious, and aesthetically appealing, these are the top ten crucial items you should bring to your next glamping and picnic escapade.\n1. String lights for decoration\nGlamping almost always involves spending time outside until late into the night and it goes without saying that a sprinkling of decorative lights brings a certain magic to the occasion. It’s certainly worth putting the effort in to bring them along.\nString lights, in particular, can be grouped together to make a collage or added to themed areas within your campsite. You can string them on your tent or even the camp chairs to enjoy a full visual delight!\nIt can get pretty boring sitting around in a camp chair not doing much or simply not seeing or smelling anything. Bring a few fresh flowers or bouquets to brighten the area and make your picnicking experience fun and well-rounded with a bit of a vintage twist.\nDon’t know which flowers to decorate your picnic or camping space with? You can go for roses or tulip flowers, sunflowers, or even daisies. You could even get them delivered directly to the campsite if you have a special occasion or want to surprise someone with something special.\n3. Beautiful woven rugs\nNo matter where you find yourself on the campgrounds, an area rug can be the perfect accent piece for your setup. Not only will it add some aesthetic beauty and value, but it will also absorb moisture from your feet, protect against the elements, and prevent potential slips and falls. We really love vintage rugs.\n4. Vintage lanterns\nThis is a simple, yet stunning decor piece to bring along with you for glamping and picnic excursions. It might not be one of those camping upgrades you need per se, but lanterns always come in handy when spending time in the dark wild.\nThey help to provide illumination around the campsite or picnic area, making your nighttime experience all the better. Plus most of them are portable, so you can use one when navigating in the dark.\n5. Tabletop dressing and accessories\nFrom tablecloths to napkins, glassware, and accessories, you’ll need to bring along a few pieces of these to your glamping and picnicking excursion. They go a long way in elevating the decor during mealtime.\nAnd if you’re on a trip with family or friends, a good set of utensils to use and prepare food is always essential.\n6. A beautiful throw blanket\nEven if the night-time temperature is a bit chilly, you’ll want to keep yourself warm with a warm, soft throw blanket to keep you cosy. Get one that is beautifully woven and visually captivating for use when creating a picnic setup.\n7. An aesthetic hammock\nA hammock is an important item in any glamping or picnic setup. The many benefits of hammocks speak for themselves. Not only will it make your experience more luxurious, but it will also help provide some pretty epic shade from the sun and offer entertainment during leisurely picnicking sessions.\nYou might even consider bringing along some throw pillows to get the most out of your colourful hammock.\n8. Comfy glamping/picnic chairs\nFrom simple folding chairs to more sophisticated-looking bamboo picnic tables with a seat, choosing some chairs that you can put together yourself can be a good way to make your glamping or picnic experience especially chic. They will also help with creating a rustic setting and texture for the picnic setup.\n9. An aesthetically appealing cooler\nWhether you’re camping far away in the wild or glamping in your home garden, you might need a way to keep beverages such as water, wine, and beer cool. This means bringing a camping cooler, but it doesn’t have to have a boring design.\nGetting a cooler with a fun and expressive design can help improve your decor while out there in the great outdoors, improving your overall ex[perience in the long run.\n10. Extra fancy wine glasses\nThese are a must-have if you’re going to have wine with your camping meals. They can be used for drinking and also as decorations. The good part is that you can get fancy wine glasses from any local thrift store, or you can even modify the ones in your home to make them extra fancy.\nIf you are about to head out on a camping trip or a picnic in a public space, make sure to take some of these items with you, so your enjoyment can be a cut above the rest. Don’t forget to think about items that will improve your safety, health, and convenience while you’re at it!", "domain": "design"}

Both ceramic and stone tiles are nearly maintenance free, though grout will need occasional resealing.\nWhat are the benefits of ceramic tiles?\nFloors and walls that are covered by synthetic materials are very easy to damage. A dragging chair or overzealous child with some crayons can create an indelible mark on the surface that will never go away. It takes much more work to create permanent damage in tile. Although tiles can be chipped or cracked if a heavy object is dropped upon them, damaged tiles can be easily removed and replaced without affecting the remaining undamaged tiles.\n2. Easy to Clean\nOne of the biggest problems with synthetic materials is that you have to be careful of what chemicals you use to clean them. Tile is much easier to clean since you can scrub more vigorously using any chemical you want. It is also very difficult for dirt to gain any real purchase on the surface of tile.\nTile choices such as glazed ceramic or porcelain tiles are waterproof, which makes them excellent choices for areas of the home that are regularly exposed to water, such as the kitchen or bathroom. Using tile for a backsplash, a shower surround, wall covering or flooring in these areas can help prevent water damage to underlying structural elements.\nSince many tile materials come from natural sources such as stone or ceramic materials, they don’t emit volatile organic compounds, which may trigger allergies in some people, like many synthetic material choices may. Tile surfaces that are nonporous and easily wiped down, such as glazed ceramic tiles or glass tiles, are also less likely to attract and maintain dust, pollen, dander and other allergens. This feature of tile also makes it more resistant to bacteria, mold and mildew.\n5. Highly Flexible Design Options\nSince tile comes in almost every pattern, shape, size, color, pattern and style possible, tile can attractively fit into nearly any shape or room design imaginable.\n6. Easily Customizable Pricing Options\nThere is a wide variety of options to choose from when you are dealing with tile. You can get everything from the classic tile you see in many bathrooms and kitchens to high-end luxury tiles, which makes tile an affordable option for nearly every type of budget.", "domain": "design"}

It is capable of serving smaller communities with shorter runways and a minimum of ground equipment for short 20 to 30 minute turn around times.\nControl surfaces for roll and pitch are operated by mechanical linkage from the cockpit control wheels to the respective control tabs which in turn deflect the ailerons and elevator. Hydraulic power augments the elevator down force when the aircraft is at high angles of attack to assure a nose down capability. The rudder is hydraulically powered but with manual reversion using a control tab similar to the ailerons and elevators. Hydraulic spoilers on top of the wings assist the ailerons for roll control and are also used as speed brakes in flight and as ground spoilers to reduce lift during landing roll. Hydraulically powered wing leading edge slats and trailing edge flaps shorten takeoff and landing distance.\nAdditionally, hydraulic power is used for the retractable tricycle landing gear, nose wheel steering, brakes, engine thrust reverse actuators and aft entry stairs.\nIce protection is provided using bleed air from the engines for wing leading edge and horizontal tail surface de-ice and engine anti-ice. This, along with full IFR flight instrumentation and radar give the McDonnell Douglas DC-9 “all weather capability”.\nThe aircraft is air-conditioned and pressurized for comfort up to 35,000 feet. A passenger forward entrance retractable stair is provided along with an onboard auxiliary power unit (APU) gas turbine engine for stand alone electrical power, air-conditioning and engine start on the ground as well as backup electrical power in-flight. This, along with capability to manually load baggage into the cargo compartments without any equipment, makes this aircraft ideal for smaller station operations and charters.\nWhen you think of the Douglas DC-9 series of jetliners, a vision of the 1960s comes to mind as the airlines of the world rushed to replace the grand old propliners of the golden age of aviation in order to compete in the fast and sleek new jet age. But this vision actually started for Douglas Aircraft Company as far back as the post war year of 1947 when various studies were undertaken for a new short to medium range aircraft.\nOne of the first of these studies was the T1119 which was also known as the DC-9. This was not a jet, but rather a 28 passenger airliner powered by two 1600 horsepower piston engines built by either Wright or Pratt & Whitney and capable of flying 1500 to 2500 miles. This idea was tabled mainly because Martin and Convair had products that offered the same capabilities for 40 passengers instead of 28. At the same time, Douglas was concentrating on the longer range market with the development of the DC-8 and directed most of its energy towards that end. It wasn’t until 1956 that the company got serious with the shorter range market and presented Project 2000 to the airline community.\nModel 2067 was also designated the DC-9 and looked very similar to the DC-8. It was a four engine turbojet with the same fuselage as the “Eight”, transporting up to 96 passengers over 2300 miles. Meanwhile, Boeing had come out with the more competitive 727 design offering better economy. With United and Eastern ordering a sizeable number of Boeing’s tri-jet, the second major DC-9 concept was dropped.\nThe next design for the “Nine” was the model 2086 to more effectively compete with the French Sud Aviation Caravelle, the British BAC 1-11 and Boeing’s 727. This Douglas model was very close to the final version of the DC-9. The airplane had a larger cabin and cargo area than the BAC 1-11, but smaller with less range than the 727 and Caravelle. A major advantage of this design was its maximum takeoff gross weight (MTOW). At 69,000 pounds, this was under the FAA regulations in force at the time requiring U.S. airliners with a MTOW over 80,000 pounds to have three crewmembers in the cockpit (pilot, copilot and flight engineer). The Caravelle and the Boeing “three-holer” were both over this limit and subsequently required three crewmembers up front.\nThe Douglas 2086 design would feature two turbofan jet engines mounted on the aft fuselage with a “t-tail” empennage. This design won over a concept with wing mounted engines, due to less overall drag, better engine out controllability and reduced approach speed by using a larger trailing edge flap system. The loss of a BAC 1-11 in a test accident attributed to a deep stall at a high angle of attack alerted the Douglas engineers to this potential problem and added larger tail surfaces to keep the rudder from being blanked out along with wing fences to delay the stall. Initial design featured the boarding door with the integral stairs just forward of the left wing root and a unique pull out luggage rack for passengers’ smaller items, located near the door. Later design changes moved the boarding door to its final location with an optional collapsible integral stair stowed in a compartment underneath the door. The external luggage rack was eventually removed from the design. The powerplant chosen was the Pratt & Whitney JT8D, which would become a very successful and reliable engine, not only for the DC-9, but also for the Boeing 727 and 737.\nIn April of 1963, Douglas Aircraft, taking a huge risk, made the decision to go ahead with the DC-9 program despite a lack of any firm orders for the airplane. Unique to this project would be a cost sharing program with suppliers and heavier use of sub-contracting for parts. In order to entice Trans-Canada Airlines (now Air Canada) to place an order, Douglas contracted with DeHavilland of Canada to make the wings and most of the tail assembly. List price for the DC-9-10 series would be $3.1 million.\nLater in April, the first firm order came in for the new airliner with a request from Delta for 15 DC-9-11s with an option for 15 more aircraft. Along with this order, Delta was consulted heavily on the design for the new aircraft, including cockpit design and simplicity, durability, and accessibility for the various systems of the airplane.\nAs the project went into high gear, new orders came flooding in from Bonanza, Trans-Canada, KLM, Swissair, TWA, and Hawaiian. The DC-9 production initially used the DC-8 assembly line due to a drop in the larger jet’s orders. Production costs were saved by testing various aircraft systems on regular DC-8 test flights.\nShip Number One rolled out of the Long Beach, California facility in May of 1964, just ten months after startup, with the first flight on February 25, 1965. Eventually, five aircraft were used for flight testing with no major problems noted except a sharper stall entry which was rectified by installing fences and stall strips along the leading edge of the wing.\nThe DC-9 entered service in early December 1965 with Delta, while more orders came in from airlines such as Eastern, West Coast, Ozark, Continental, Saudi Arabia, Iberia, Standard (U.S. Supplemental carrier), Ansett, and Trans Australia. By the end of 1965, sales were so strong for the DC-9 that the “Nine” production was done in two bays of the assembly line while the “Eight” had one.\nWhile the U.S. deliveries were under FAA restriction for number of cockpit crew based on weight, airlines outside the U.S. weren’t necessarily under that restriction. Douglas designed the DC-9 with thoughts of eventually stretching the fuselage for follow-on models. The FAA ultimately changed the crew requirement and based it on individual aircraft certification. This allowed the much heavier DC-9-30 series to be launched with a crew of two pilots and in April of 1965, Allegheny ordered four of the new stretched DC-9s with an option of four additional aircraft. The new 30 series was almost 15 feet longer than the -10 with seating from 94 up to 127 passengers and using the JT8D -7 and JT8D-9 powerplants rated at 14,000 and 14,500 pounds of thrust respectively. First flight occurred on August 1st, 1966 with a category II ILS low visibility approach system included in its certification on December 22nd of that year. As a side note, a category III autoland low visibility approach system with a pilot head up display (HUD) was tested on the -30 model in May of 1967. The “Dash 30” would prove to be Douglas Aircraft’s most popular series of DC-9 with 589 airplanes built between 1966 and 1982.\nCompetition was heating up as Boeing entered the small to medium market with the B-737. Deliveries commenced in late 1967 for what would become aviation’s most plentiful airliner. The advantage of this model was that the cabin cross section was virtually identical to the B-707 and B-727, which was roomier than the DC-9, offering six abreast seating. This aircraft would also see stretched versions with the -100 model holding up to 103 passengers and the -200 up to 115.\nMeanwhile, Douglas was inundated with aircraft orders and started to show some growing pains as unfinished DC-8s and 9s began to pile up outside the Long Beach facility. James McDonnell and his aerospace company came courting to help Douglas through these difficult times. The result was a merger in April of 1967 to form McDonnell-Douglas. This new arrangement proved beneficial both financially and with streamlining the production process.\nAirlines desired larger capacity and/or better performance in the short to medium market with McDonnell-Douglas responding with three additional models. Ten DC-9-20 series were ordered by SAS for their unique performance requirements for short field / high elevation destinations. This model was essentially a DC-9-10 with a -30 wing (including the leading edge slats) and the more powerful JT8D-11 engine rated at 11,000 pounds of thrust each engine. The Scandinavian airline also ordered the next larger DC-9 to be offered. Extending the length another six feet from the -30 fuselage, the DC-9-40 raised the capacity to 128 passengers using the JT8D-9 engine for power.\nNext was the very popular DC-9-50 with a 14 foot stretch compared to the -30 series. This model entered service in 1975 for Swissair and featured more powerful -15 or -17 powerplants with strakes positioned on each side of the nose for added stability at low airspeed / high angle of attack situations.\nOther variants of the DC-9 were produced such as the C-9 for the USAF in an aeromedivac role and the USN for various logistic missions. Freighter versions of the DC-9-10 series were ordered with a cargo door on the left forward side. Continental Airlines ordered 19 DC-9-15RC “Rapid Change” models for passenger by day, cargo by night flexibility.\nWith the delivery to the United States Navy of a C-9 version on October 28, 1982, the production line ended for the DC-9 with 976 aircraft delivered to operators all over the globe. Follow-on versions of this popular airplane continued as the Douglas Commercial Transport number Nine was stretched even further into the MD-80/90 and then, as McDonnell-Douglas merged into Boeing, a modernized version of the original DC-9-30 using new and powerful high bypass turbofan engines and new glass technology became the Boeing 717.\nThe DC-9 airliner fulfilled the needs for the small to medium transport market for many years with a large percentage of the aircraft still flying today. The DC-9; a tribute to the quality design and craftsmanship of Douglas Aircraft; building a tough, reliable and cost competitive airliner.\nNorth Central DC-9\nAs the major airlines of the United States began to upgrade their fleets to jets, the nation’s local service carriers were also eyeing the potential of having jet aircraft enhance their route networks. North Central Airlines personnel looked at various potential airframes that were already in production or on the drawing board in the early 1960s. Among those were the BAC 1-11 from England, the Fokker F-28 from Holland and the Boeing 737 and Douglas DC-9 from the U.S. All of these were a good fit for the short to medium haul market which was North Central’s bread and butter, but the BAC 1-11 and F-28 were too small and the 737 was controversial because of the two verses three cockpit crew problem. This left the DC-9, which at the time of consideration, was initially going to be an 80 passenger airframe. However, there were indications that a stretched version would be forthcoming.\nFinally, on July 7, 1965, just five months after Douglas Aircraft first flew Ship Number One, North Central ordered five DC-9s with an option of five more for a package deal with spare parts worth 20 million dollars. These aircraft were initially ordered as the 80 passenger DC-9-10 series, but by mid 1966, had been modified to the 100 passenger -30 series.\nWith the first two DC-9-31s due for delivery to North Central’s main base at Minneapolis/St. Paul in late summer 1967, President Hal Carr and his team submitted a plethora of route requests to the Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB) to take full advantage of the new DC-9’s capabilities. The CAB, having realized the new playing field and economics involved with the new jets being ordered by the local service carriers, proposed a new non-stop policy allowing these airlines to bypass intermediate stops between city pairs which each airline already served. North Central responded to this new policy by proposing new non-stops between such city pairs as Minneapolis/St. Paul (MSP) Chicago O’Hare, MSP Omaha, Milwaukee Detroit and Chicago O’Hare Detroit. Routes were also filed for cities not on the Northliner route map, such as Denver, New York, Baltimore, Boston, Toronto, Cincinnati, and Columbus.\nThe initial order of DC-9s set into motion many other programs besides new route authority. Mechanics and tech personnel started their training in 1965 and 1966 to learn the new DC-9 systems along with station personnel on how to handle the new aircraft. Initial pilot transition training took place at TWA until the airline could get its own cockpit procedures trainer and other training aids operational.\nNorth Central was also running short of adequate hanger facilities for the new jet, so in September of 1965, plans for a new $10 million operations base/ hanger/general offices was announced for construction at the south side of the Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport property. Then in June of 1966, the Detroit operation moved from Willow Run Airport to Metro Airport with a new hanger built to handle up to three DC-9s at once.\nWhile the company was busy preparing for the arrival of the first DC-9s, another major project was set into motion. North Central’s large fleet of Convair 440 piston airliners would be converted to the Allison powered Convair 580 prop-jet by Pacific Airmotive Corporation (PAC) of Burbank, California. PAC would also be under contract to the airline to provide overhaul, service and repair of the DC-9 engines. With deliveries starting in early 1967 for the 580, North Central would have an all turbine powered fleet by the end of the decade.\nProduction proceeded on schedule for the company’s DC-9 fleet as the first aircraft entered the assembly line at Long Beach in early 1967. Rollout for ship 901 (N951N, MSN 47067) occurred in June of that year with the jet arriving from the McDonnell-Douglas plant to North Central’s home base at MSP on July 28, 1967. Another “Nine” (N952N, MSN 47073) would arrive in time to have two jets available to enter service for the September 1st schedule. These “Nines” displayed the “new look” color scheme of aqua, navy blue and gold which matched the converted Convair prop-jets. Interiors were also similar using alternating aqua and gold seats with beige walls and ceilings. The cabin crews’ uniforms would also match the company’s “new look” scheme.\nNorth Central’s new DC-9s fit well into its rapidly expanding schedule, leading the company to exercise its options of five additional aircraft, bringing the fleet up to a total of ten jets by mid 1968. Additional orders of the DC-9-31 series would bring the total to 20 of the 100 seat airplanes. As passenger traffic continued to grow throughout NCA’s system, the company decided it needed the services of a new DC-9 model, the even longer DC-9-51 series. This version was very popular with North Central, which resulted in 18 of the 125 passenger airplanes delivered to “The Route of the Northliners” beginning in April of 1976 with ship 851 (N760NC, MSN 47708) and continuing until the merger with Southern Airways to form Republic Airlines in July of 1979. There were also 10 additional DC-9-51s ordered by North Central which were subsequently delivered to Republic after the merger took place.\nThese twin engine jetliners would help expand North Central’s route system dramatically, connecting the upper mid-west communities to new destinations in the eastern, southern and western United States. Passengers on Northliner flights could now count on very quick, reliable and frequent service along North Central’s system on the quiet, efficient, all-weather McDonnell-Douglas DC-9 Fanjet. This aircraft would prove so valuable that most of these DC-9s continued to provide excellent service to NCA’s follow on airlines, Republic and Northwest, well into the 21st century.", "domain": "design"}

It serves as the building block upon which the entire system is constructed, shaping its overall structure, behaviour, and performance. By adhering to established best practices in software architecture design, developers can craft systems that are not only efficient, scalable, and maintainable but also uphold robust security measures.\nIn this article, we will explore 8 essential principles and best practices for designing effective software architecture. These practices have been curated from the extensive experience and expertise of renowned software architects and engineers. They have stood the test of time and have proven to be highly effective in the creation of high-quality software systems.\nTo lay a strong foundation, let’s delve into the fundamentals of software design. Design principles such as SOLID (Single Responsibility, Open-Closed, Liskov Substitution, Interface Segregation, and Dependency Inversion) and DRY (Don’t Repeat Yourself) provide guidelines for writing clean, modular, and maintainable code. Additionally, understanding design patterns is essential. Creational patterns (e.g., Factory, Singleton), structural patterns (e.g., Adapter, Decorator), and behavioural patterns (e.g., Observer, Strategy) offer proven solutions to recurring design problems.\nExample: Imagine you are designing a blogging platform. Applying the Single Responsibility Principle (SRP), you would create separate classes/modules for handling user authentication, managing blog posts, and managing user profiles. This separation ensures that each component has a clear responsibility, making the system more maintainable and flexible.\nChoosing the right architectural style is critical to achieving desired system qualities. Monolithic architecture is a traditional approach, suitable for small to medium-sized applications. On the other hand, microservices architecture allows the building of scalable and loosely coupled systems. Event-driven architecture focuses on asynchronous communication and scalability. Layered architecture promotes separation of concerns and modularity. The hexagonal architecture emphasizes clean boundaries between applications and infrastructure. Domain-driven design (DDD) encourages building software that aligns with the business domain.\nExample: Consider an e-commerce website like Amazon. It employs a microservices architecture where different microservices handle product catalogue management, order processing, user management, payment processing, and reviews. This architectural style enables scalability, independent deployment, and fault isolation, allowing each microservice to evolve and scale independently.\nScalability and resilience are key considerations in today’s software development landscape. To design scalable systems, techniques like load balancing, horizontal scaling, and caching can be employed. Caching mechanisms, such as in-memory caches or content delivery networks, improve performance and reduce database load. Building fault-tolerant systems involves employing redundancy, fault isolation, and graceful degradation.\nExample: In a social media platform like Instagram, load-balancing techniques are employed to distribute user requests across multiple servers. This way the platform ensures that the application remains highly available, with an evenly distributed workload across servers to handle a large number of concurrent users.\nChoosing the appropriate data storage solution is crucial for effective software design. Relational databases excel at maintaining structured data integrity, while NoSQL databases offer flexibility and scalability for unstructured or semi-structured data. Properly implementing data access patterns, such as Object-Relational Mapping (ORM), Data Access Objects (DAO), or Repository, ensures efficient data retrieval and manipulation.\nExample: A travel booking application may utilize a relational database (e.g., PostgreSQL) to store structured data such as user details, bookings, and payment information. On the other hand, it may also use a NoSQL database (e.g., MongoDB) to store unstructured data like user-generated reviews and ratings for destinations.\nSecurity is a vital aspect of software systems. Implementing robust authentication and authorization mechanisms, employing encryption techniques, and following secure coding practices are essential. Understanding common security vulnerabilities, such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting (XSS), helps mitigate risks.\nExample: In a banking application, strong authentication mechanisms such as multi-factor authentication (MFA) and encryption techniques are implemented to protect user data. Additionally, input validation, secure session management, and regular security audits are conducted to mitigate common security vulnerabilities and ensure secure transactions.\nOptimizing performance is crucial for delivering high-quality software. Techniques such as code profiling, identifying and resolving bottlenecks, algorithmic improvements, and database query optimization can significantly enhance application performance. Employing caching strategies, both at the application and database level can also yield performance benefits.\nExample: A content delivery network (CDN) is used by media streaming services like Netflix to optimize content delivery. By caching popular videos at edge servers located closer to users, the CDN reduces latency and improves streaming performance, resulting in a smooth and seamless user experience.\nThorough testing and quality assurance practices are vital for ensuring software reliability. Adopting test-driven development (TDD), writing comprehensive unit tests, conducting integration tests, and implementing continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) pipelines contribute to building robust and maintainable codebases.\nExample: When developing a mobile application, automated unit tests are written to verify the functionality of key features, such as user registration or payment processing. Continuous Integration (CI) pipelines are set up to run these tests automatically, ensuring that any code changes do not introduce regressions and maintaining code quality throughout the development process.\nDocumenting software design and architecture helps maintain clarity and facilitates collaboration within development teams. UML diagrams, such as class diagrams and sequence diagrams, serve as effective communication tools. Version control systems and issue-tracking software promote seamless collaboration among team members.\nExample: A software development team uses version control systems like Git and collaboration platforms like GitHub or GitLab to manage codebase changes and facilitate seamless collaboration among team members. They document the system architecture using UML diagrams and maintain a knowledge base to capture design decisions, coding standards, and best practices.\nMastering software design and architecture is a continuous journey that requires a solid understanding of fundamental principles and best practices. By adhering to design principles, utilizing patterns and architectural styles, optimizing performance, ensuring security, and fostering collaboration, developers can craft software solutions that are robust, scalable, and maintainable.", "domain": "design"}

In addition, due to low compatibility levels of Pigment foil in the making process, it’s not common to see Pigment foil applied to finished products of this kind. Most people are relatively unfamiliar with the possibilities Pigment foil presents.\nIn 2O19, we will launch a series of foil catalogue experimental works - \"Pigment FOIL CATALOGUE\". We aspire to share through these pieces the foil styles we were able to obtain and to show the suitability of Pigment foil on the new product. The effect of Pigment foil is by no means replaceable with metal foil. We believe that PIGMENT FOIL CATALOGUE will increase some new possibilities to the seemingly-perpetual option of hot stamping.\n\"Hot foil stamping is an art positioned between mass production and craftsmanship\"\nMost of the common hot foil stamping designs available nowadays can only be represented using techniques which include inherent limitations. After years of experience with experimentation, in the works we will be sharing this time, we present some interesting experimental techniques that were attained by our inductions. We hope that through the display of this experimental work will foster additional innovative ideas for Pigment foil and serve as a reference for everyone’s interest.\n\"Pigment FOIL CATALOGUE\" inherits our experimental spirit of 2O18. Our hope isn’t just that the end result yields a nice sample, more than that, it is to stimulate more possibilities in the process.\nFlowing Design is a design studio pursuing positive social impact through the power of design.\nBesides commercial cases, we also launch several special projects every year. While carrying out these projects, we hope to break through the current situation that besets their development, retain the original intention of design, and seek new possibilities along the way. This is not just a sample of hot foil stamping, but an experimental project that presents genuinely the gold foil as it is.\n設計：海流設計 Flowing Design｜燙金監製：泳勝采墨工作室｜包裝印刷：富升印刷｜特別感謝：台灣庫爾茲、采憶紙品、鑫天力紙業｜協力廠商：文鼎字型、岱稜科技、恆成紙業、聯美紙業、鳳嬌催化室、長瑩國際（長春紙舖）、大亞紙業、貝爾敦紙業｜產品攝影：Mo Chien｜翻譯：Wanda Shen、Willy Du", "domain": "design"}

Of course, all the models got fresh hardware. This concerns both processors and graphics cards. To be exact, they got new AMD CPUs and GeForce RTX 3000 series graphics cards, which were introduced almost simultaneously with the new ROG devices.\nASUS ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 (GX551)\nLast year's flagship gaming laptop ASUS ROG Zephyrus Duo 15 with two screens has been updated significantly. In fact, only the unusual, recognizable design remained without dramatic changes. As for the inside and features, the upgrade appeared to be very significant. The laptop's body is made of magnesium alloy, the top cover has a recognizable design with diagonal split and a large ROG gaming line logo. The keyboard, just like last year’s one, is shifted towards the user, on the front edge of the laptop. The touchpad is placed to the right of it, and can work also in touch-screen numeric pad mode.\nAnd here is that extra touchscreen IPS-display ScreenPad Plus with a 14.09 inch diagonal, in different configurations with a resolution of 3840x1100 or 1920x550. It can display additional information during the game (e.g. chat), Overwolf overlay, Xplit Gamecaster, Adobe toolbars, or you can just use it as an additional display in Windows. The design is made in such a way that when you open the laptop, the additional screen is lifted towards the user. This solution fulfills two tasks. The more obvious one is that you can better see the information on the screen. Less obvious - there is a cooling system right underneath the ScreenPad Plus. And in this position it can intake more cool air. The Active Aerodynamic System (AAS) Plus cooling system itself has been redesigned to increase airflow by 30% over the previous model. Liquid metal is used as the thermal interface.\nAnd now about the specification. The main display has a 15.6-inch diagonal and IPS panels. There will be options with 4K resolution and 120 Hz refresh rate, or FullHD and 300 Hz. Inside it is even more interesting. The laptop will be available exclusively with AMD's new processors, which were unveiled just a couple of hours ago. To be exact – Ryzen 9 5900HX or Ryzen 7 5800H, and the graphics are the latest GeForce RTX 3080 Max-P, 16 GB GDDR6, GeForce RTX 3070 Max-P, 8 GB or GeForce RTX 3060 Max-P, 6 GB. RAM is 16 GB DDR4 3200MHz on the board and another 16 GB can be installed in a free slot. Two M. 2 PCIe 3.0 x4 slots are provided for drives, in which you can install a 1TB SSD. There is RAID0 support.\nFour speakers are responsible for the sound, there is support for Dolby Atmos, Hi-Res Audio (HRA) and AI noise cancellation. Interfaces: WiFi 6 (802.11ax), Bluetooth 5.0, 1xUSB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (DisplayPort 1.4, Thunderbolt, PD, 3xUSB 3.2 Gen 2 Type A, HDMI 2.0b, combined audio jack, RJ-45, MicroSD card reader (speed up to 312 MB/s). The notebook is powered by a 90Wh battery. The included power supply has 240W, and there's also support for USB-C Power Delivery 3.0 up to 100W. With all these extras, the laptop is not too big: 14.2x10.5x0.83 inches (36x26.8x2.1 cm), weight – 5.3 pounds (2.4 kg).\nASUS ROG Flow X13 (GV301)\nNow let's move on to a more exotic model. ASUS ROG Flow X13 is positioned as an ultraportable gaming laptop-transformer with an external graphics card, which is coupled with a docking station. At first glance we see a modern, stylish ultrabook, the design of which hardly looks like a gamer’s. So it will look quite natural in any office environment. The black case with diagonal decorative lines is made of magnesium alloy, its thickness is 15.8 mm and its weight is 1.3 kg. The cover is able to rotate 360° (in tablet mode). At that, ErgoLift hinges are used: in laptop mode, the back part of the case is lifted.\nThe display is touchscreen naturally. The diagonal is 13.4 inches, the aspect ratio is 16:10. As for the other characteristics, two variants are available. Both are IPS, with Adaptive Sync support and Pantone certification. One with a resolution of 3840x2400 and a refresh rate of 60 Hz, the other is 1920x1200, 120 Hz. The laptop has inside a new AMD Ryzen processor up to 8-core Ryzen 9 5980HS and a GeForce GTX 1650 graphics card with 4GB of GDDDR6 video memory. RAM can be 16 or 32 GB LPDDR4X, 4266 MHz. It is soldered onto the motherboard and works in dual channel mode. Storage: SSD 1x512 GB or 1 TB (M.2, 2230, PCIe 3.0 x4).\nTo make it all work at full power, you should connect a 100W Type-C power supply. Although the laptop can be charged even from power banks and third-party PSUs. The graphics card is not the most powerful, but it is enough for not the most demanding games, and for work tasks related to graphics. But the most interesting is the ROG XG Mobile external graphics card, which is paired with a docking station. Inside you can insert a graphics card up to the 16GB mobile version of the GeForce RTX 3080 (that's the version we were able to get our hands on). It is connected by a large adapter that combines USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C (Thunderbolt 3) and proprietary PCIe 3.0 x8 to provide the necessary bandwidth.\nThe docking station has a 280W power supply, its own cooling system and a very good set of ports: 4xUSB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A, HDMI 2.0a, DisplayPort 1.4, SD card reader and RJ-45. That is, in fact, everything you need. Considering all of these features, the ASUS ROG Flow X13 is a very appealing all-in-one option: take a laptop with a compact power supply to work. And when you get home, plug it into a docking station (which already has all your peripherals, a large display, or your TV) for a powerful gaming solution.\nIn addition, the company has introduced updated ASUS ROG Strix and Zephyrus models. You can read more about them, as well as prices and sales start dates in our news. And also in the near future we will publish more personal impressions of ASUS ROG Flow X13, which turned out to be an extremely cool device.\nAFFILIATE DISCLOSURE Some posts may contain affiliate links.

Danielle is my older sister, and everything she did and liked, I wanted to do and like, too. She sketched and painted; so did I. Because of her, I grew up loving art. Danielle later went to college and majored in graphic design. When it was my turn to go a few years later, I was so impressed by the cool things she was able to do, I also majored in graphic design.\nAfter graduation, the small town I lived in didn’t hold many opportunities for graphic designers. I worked at a coffee shop, then took a second job designing at a local magazine. At the shop, I especially enjoyed interacting with customers. The magazine didn’t give me much face-to-face time with anyone, even though I was able to work in the art field. I quickly learned that I was unhappy sitting at a computer and became disenchanted by the idea of being a professional designer. Working two jobs simultaneously was a great way to contrast the two environments. I realized I wanted to interact with people and still be involved with art. That’s when I decided it was time to return to school to become an art teacher.\nI hope to be a teacher who inspires kids to excel in art, and show the students what all art can encompass besides just learning how to draw. I want to teach kids about all kinds of art and expand their definitions of both “good” and “art.” I want to emphasize art history because I feel it leads to lifelong art appreciation.

The JPADS program was developed to transition the U.S. military's WWII-era low-altitude, low-accuracy, high-vulnerability airdrop practices into the twenty-first century. Atair's Onyx is a family of fielded, Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) systems designed with capabilities of delivering payloads ranging from 0 lbs to 700 lbs. Onyx Systems are available in two payload configurations: Onyx Micro Light (10 to 150 lbs), and Onyx Ultra Light (250 to 700 lbs).\nExisting airdrop methods expose ground forces conducting resupply operations to the growing threat from insurgents' low-cost improvised explosive devices (IEDs); air crews are exposed to threat from man-portable air defense systems (MANPADS) and rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs). Onyx systems can be likened to smart bombs, but for the safe, precision delivery of cargo. Onyx systems are air-deployed from military fixed-wing and rotary aircraft (A/C), such as a C-130 or C-17, at altitudes up to 35,000 ft and speeds up to 150 KIAS, autonomously glide over 40 km, and land cargo within a circular error probability (CEP) of 100 m. Onyx systems provide military planners with the capability of strategically and covertly positioning equipment and supplies for rapidly moving ground and special operations forces. Onyx systems can also be used for the precision emplacement of unattended ground sensors and small munitions deployed from military A/C and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).\nAtair has developed patented Adaptive Control to increase the mission critical capabilities and flexibility in deployment of Onyx systems. Adaptive Control enables Onyx systems to fly correctly with gross variances in wing loading, asymmetrically-rigged payloads caused by pre-flight rigging errors or cargo changes, and even correct for damage induced while in flight.\nFive Onyx systems flying in formation\nCollision Avoidance and Formation Flying\nOnyx has the advanced capability of operating in an environment in which multiple systems are simultaneously deployed in the same air space. This is accomplished using real-time collision avoidance and swarming/flocking flight algorithms that guide dynamic payloads to one or multiple targets without the possibility of midair collisions. These algorithms operate in a fully decentralized fashion so that there is no need for a supervisory controller.\nOnyx Base Station\nOnyx Base Station Software\nOnyx Base Station is an innovative Windows application that can be used on non-JPADS-MP compatible aircraft to perform mission planning and sophisticated real-time system tracking on any number of Onyx systems.\nOnyx Base Station allows mission planning data to be easily entered and wirelessly uploaded to any number of Onyx systems. A series of 2-D and 3-D windows with map underlays displays position and status information in real-time, or during post-analysis, for multiple Onyx systems.", "domain": "design"}

Between wedding registries and bridal showers, it’s easy to forget that, even as a guest, planning your wedding look starts now. It’s the perfect time to figure out what to wear to a spring wedding!\nSpring weather tends to be warmer, so your spring wedding guest look requires less layers. The options for spring wedding guest dresses are truly endless! However, the infinite possibilities can be both exciting and overwhelming. Multiple outfit options can cause decision fatigue, forcing you into the same little black dress, which is why it’s important to have a spring wedding apparel game plan. Here’s a few tips to get you started:\nPastels are the black of spring\nEven though black dresses look chic look any time of year, take full advantage of spring fever by exploring more exciting color palettes. Look for wedding guest dresses for spring in pastels that pop, like the Lily Dress in bubblegum pink or lilac. Play up your pastels with warm makeup shades, such as coral-toned blush and candy pink lips. Pastels not your thing? Go for jewel tones! Jewel tones are flattering for many skin tones, and are totally spring wedding appropriate. The Iris Dress comes in sapphire blue, emerald green, and magenta, all of which would make excellent wedding guest dresses for spring.\nFloral is your friend\nYou might wonder if floral is still on-trend when it comes to dresses to wear to a spring wedding. The answer is yes! Floral provides a feminine look that stands out while not taking attention away from the bride’s big day. Not only that, it’s the perfect pattern to subtly match the wedding theme. Use the wedding invitation or website as a guide, and choose a floral print that includes one of the colors to match the look in a tasteful way.\nPair it with a quality pair of nude pumps\nHaving the right pair of shoes in your closet sets you up for wedding guest success. From blush to tan tones, a nude shoe will pair well with any brightly colored spring dress. By investing in a quality pair, you’ll ensure that they not only hold up on the dance floor, but also all season long. Because spring outdoor weddings may still be too cool for sandals, pumps are the best option for providing more warmth, as well as comfort and class.\nFind an appropriate skirt length\nAfter months of being covered by pants and leggings, spring weddings are the perfect excuse to show some leg in a cocktail dress, but only if the wedding is semi-formal or black tie optional. To ensure that your attire is flattering without being flashy, look for dresses and skirts that land at the knee or longer, such as the Iris Dress, which has a flattering silhouette and falls just below the knee. If you’re wondering what to wear to a spring wedding, look no further! But if your wedding isa black tie affair, don’t worry. Bespoke Southerly offers full length options for all of our dresses. We think the Magnolia Dress in lavender floral would make an excellent choice for a dress to wear to a formal spring wedding. Just choose the custom length option at checkout!\nThink ahead to summer\nSince spring is only the beginning of wedding season, lead with versatility in your wedding guest dress selections so pieces can be repurposed for summer weddings. With that in mind, selecting a timelessly chic cocktail dress allows you to wear it with a shawl for spring weddings and on its own in the summer. Likewise, think ahead when selecting accessories. A springtime statement necklace can easily be swapped out for colorful strappy sandals to transform a solid-colored dress between seasons and give you an entirely fresh look that other guests will think is brand new.\n- Pastels are the black of spring", "domain": "design"}

The park has a tennis practice wall, picnic area, basketball court, table tennis table and play equipment.\nCorroboree Park was created as a focal point of a garden city subdivision in the mid 1920s. The park, with its buildings for community use, mature landscape and tennis courts and other recreation facilities, plays an important role as a neighbourhood park.\nPrior to the 1820s the site was marked by a clump of eucalypts and it was believed to have links with the indigenous people of the region and early settlers. The naming of the park in 1928 reflects the belief that it may have been used as a corroboree ground. The site is reportedly the initial campsite of James Ainslie, who was sent to the Limestone Plains in 1825 to establish a sheep station on behalf of Robert Campbell. Some of these eucalypts appear to have survived to the present day.\nIn the 1920s, the site became the focal point of a small garden city subdivision designed by the Federal Capital Advisory Committee under the chairmanship of Sir John Sulman who was an architect and town planner. It was created as a semi-circular park from which radiated two matching pairs of crescents (Lister, Higgins, Hargraves and Toms Crescents). The housing comprises timber cottages which were designed as \"artisan dwellings\".\nThe park, as intended, became the focal point of the community. The tennis courts and buildings date back to the 1920s. In the earlier years a horse-drawn travelling merry-go-round appeared in the park from time to time.\nThe original planting for the park and subdivision was under the direction of Charles Weston, Canberra's first Superintendent, Parks and Gardens. It was mixed exotic and deciduous species. In the 1930s the members of the tennis club extended the original planting by some 500 plants under an unemployment relief program.\nThe park was officially named in 1928. It has since been classified by the National Trust and entered onto the Register of the National Estate.\nThe parks largely informal design has changed little since the 1920s. In 1968 a limited upgrading plan was prepared aimed at providing additional recreational facilities including a tennis practice wall, picnic area, table tennis table, basketball court and contemporary play equipment.\nThe buildings are currently under the control of Northside Community Centre.\nThe trees in the park are now predominantly native with some exotics. Some of the eucalypts have become very large, making this a unique park worth visiting.\nCorroboree Park is a popular neighbourhood park which is used mainly for family recreation at weekends. Those with interests in trees, nature and Canberra's planning heritage will find much to study in the park and its adjacent streets.\nGray, J (1997) The Historical and Cultural Background of selected Urban Parks in Canberra.", "domain": "design"}

Whether autumn or winter season, these comfy scarves feel the same as throw blankets. The difference is that, you get to wear them anywhere you like.\nAnother great thing about blanket scarves is that they are extremely versatile, no matter what you choose to pair with them. If you’re new to blanket scarf wearing, all you need to know is how to style them right. Thankfully, your favorite celebrities can share some inspiration on how to wear scarves like an elite.\nPlaid Blanket Scarf\nA plaid blanket scarf can make a great fashion statement. Usually worn for the autumn season, these checked scarves look stylish in a variety of tones. To add a stunning pop of color, try Susie Bubble’s classic red design. Or if you want a style that’s a little softer, take it from Cara Delevingne’s subtle brown scarf. Regardless of your choice, keep in mind that the rest of your ensemble should be kept subdued so they won’t clash with your patterned scarf.\nOversized Blanket Scarf\nBlanket scarves are normally bigger than regular scarves, however, some are oversized in nature. If you’re looking to create an eye-catching look, oversized blankets are your best bet. For a more stand out look, try wearing a blanket scarf in a rather distinct color, texture or pattern such as an oversized plaid scarf. For style, take hints from Olivia Palermo and keep the bottom of your body sleek to match the chunky top.\nBlack Blanket Scarf\nIf you want to play it safe with the blanket scarf trend, a neutral color like black is a good way to start. In contrast with plaid or patterned scarves, a black blanket scarf can look amazing with virtually any outfit. During winter, these scarves work well with jeans, leggings, trousers, as well as sweatpants. To create a chic look, copy Vanessa Hudgens and Jessica Alba.

At Idaho Pawn and Gold, with locations in Meridian, Boise, and Nampa, Idaho, we understand the allure of silver jewelry. One trend that has gained immense popularity in recent years is stacking silver chains and adorning them with silver crosses. This unique combination allows you to express your style, faith, and individuality while embracing the beauty of silver. In this blog, we’ll explore the art of stacking silver chains, delve into different styles of silver chains, and guide you on what to look for in a high-quality clasp. Additionally, we’ll discuss the various types of silver, including sterling silver and 925 silver, and the importance of testing silver, which is a service we provide at Idaho Pawn and Gold.\nThe Art of Stacking Silver Chains\nStacking silver chains is a stylish way to create a personalized and layered look that can complement any outfit, from casual to formal. This trend has captured the hearts of jewelry enthusiasts worldwide, offering a versatile and expressive way to wear silver jewelry.\nMinimalist Elegance: Start with a delicate, shorter silver chain, such as a cable or box chain, as your base layer.

Pair a short chain with a medium-length one, and then add a longer chain for a harmonious blend.\nVariety of Textures: Experiment with different chain textures, such as snake, rope, or bead chains. Contrasting textures add depth and visual interest to your stacked chains.\nPendants and Charms: Enhance your stack by incorporating silver pendants or charms. These can include meaningful symbols, initials, or even miniature silver crosses.\nLayering with Crosses: To infuse spirituality into your style, incorporate one or more silver crosses within your chain stack. These crosses can be of varying sizes and designs, allowing you to create a unique and meaningful ensemble.\nWhile silver is a versatile choice, don’t be afraid to mix metals in your stack. Combining silver with gold or rose gold can add warmth and dimension to your look. However, ensure that the metals complement each other to maintain a cohesive aesthetic.\nExploring Different Styles of Silver Chains\nSilver chains come in various styles, each with its own unique characteristics and appeal. When building your stack, it’s essential to choose chains that resonate with your personal style. Here are some popular silver chain styles to consider:\n1.

Mix and match chains with different textures, widths, and lengths to create a one-of-a-kind look uniquely you.\nThe Symbolic Value of Silver Crosses\nIn addition to the aesthetic appeal of stacking silver chains, incorporating silver crosses into your ensemble adds depth and symbolism to your jewelry collection. Silver crosses have significant meaning for many people, representing faith, spirituality, and personal beliefs.\n1. Traditional Cross\nThe traditional cross, often referred to as the Latin cross, features a vertical bar intersecting a shorter horizontal bar. It is the most recognized symbol of Christianity and serves as a powerful reminder of Jesus Christ’s sacrifice and love.\nA crucifix is a cross with a detailed representation of Jesus Christ’s body on it. It is a powerful symbol of faith and a constant reminder of the ultimate sacrifice made for humanity’s salvation.\n3.

It represents the integration of Christian faith with Celtic traditions and spirituality.\n4. Maltese Cross\nThe Maltese cross is a symbol of bravery, courage, and the Knights of Malta. It features four equal arms that radiate from a central point and is often associated with acts of heroism.\n5. Greek Cross\nThe Greek cross consists of four arms of equal length, forming a square cross shape. It is a symbol of the early Christian church and is often associated with balance and harmony.\n6. Ankh Cross\nThe ankh cross, also known as the Egyptian cross, features a loop-like shape at the top. It is an ancient Egyptian symbol of life and immortality and is sometimes associated with Christianity.\n7. Jerusalem Cross\nThe Jerusalem cross, with a large cross surrounded by four smaller crosses, represents the five wounds of Jesus Christ and serves as a symbol of Christian pilgrimage to Jerusalem.\n8. Infinity Cross\nThe infinity cross combines the cross symbol with the infinity symbol (∞), representing eternal love and faith. It is a beautiful way to express everlasting devotion.\nEach type of silver cross carries its unique symbolism and significance. Incorporating one or more of these crosses into your stack allows you to wear your faith and values with pride and elegance.\nTypes of Silver: Sterling Silver and 925 Silver\nSilver jewelry often comes with different types of silver, with the most common being sterling silver and 925 silver. Understanding the distinction between these types is essential for informed purchasing decisions.\n1. Sterling Silver\nSterling silver is an alloy of silver that contains 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals, usually copper. This alloy is known for its durability and ability to withstand daily wear. The presence of copper enhances its strength, while maintaining the beautiful appearance of silver. Jewelry made from sterling silver is often marked with a “925” stamp to signify its composition.\n2. 925 Silver\nThe term “925 silver” is often used interchangeably with sterling silver, because it refers to the same composition: 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals. The “925” stamp is used to indicate this silver purity. When you see “925” stamped on silver jewelry, it serves as a quality assurance that you are purchasing genuine sterling silver.\nThe Importance of Testing Silver\nEnsuring the authenticity and quality of silver jewelry is of utmost importance. At Idaho Pawn and Gold, we understand the significance of testing silver to provide our customers with genuine and high-quality pieces. Here’s why silver testing is crucial:\nTesting silver is the primary method of verifying its authenticity. This process ensures that the silver used in your jewelry is genuine, not a lesser-quality alloy or imitation.\n2. Quality Assurance\nSilver testing also determines the purity of the silver used in your jewelry. For example, knowing that a piece is made of genuine sterling silver or 925 silver provides assurance of its quality and durability.\n3. Value Assessment\nTesting silver is essential for assessing the value of your jewelry, whether you’re purchasing, selling, or pawning it. The purity of the silver influences its market value, making testing a critical step in pricing.\n4.

Steerable arthroscopic instruments drastically reduce the number of pre-bent instruments needed per surgery. In addition, they allow the surgeon to steer towards remote locations with ease.\nWith its steerable tip, the Steerable Punch can easily reach hidden surgical locations, reducing time and risks, and replacing the need for multiple pre-bent instruments.\nPlatform technology based on a cable-less design that is easy to disassemble for inspection, cleaning, and sterilization.\nA simple cleaning process allows the Steerable Punch to be reused over a prolonged period.\nOne Steerable, Detachable & Cleanable Instrument\nThe Steerable Punch is the first fully detachable and reusable arthroscopic cutter that allows the surgeon to steer the tip inside the joint during knee surgery. This single instrument offers the required extra reachability in the knee joint and therefore replaces multiple pre-bent cutting tools. Its intuitive design allows the performance of meniscectomies to be completed successfully without compromising the surgeon’s comfort. The cable-less and detachability features allow for an easy cleaning process.\nSteerability is achieved by our multi-patented Shaft Actuated Tip Articulation technology (SATA), developed in close collaboration with the Delft University of Technology. It allows the tip to be positioned at all possible angles between 55 and -55 degrees and simultaneously allows precision cutting of tough tissues within one single instrument.\nFor The Surgeon, The Patient & The Hospital\n- For the surgeon, using the Steerable Punch improves the reachability of the pathologic site, making a cleaner cut possible and reducing the stress in the surgeon’s hand and wrist. Moreover, the use of a single cutting tool optimizes the surgical workflow.\n- Patients could benefit from less stress on the portal, decreased postoperative portal pain and reduced risk of tissue damage and infections, leading to a faster recovery.\n- Hospitals would benefit from the reduction of instruments per surgical procedure in combination with a reduction in procedure time and post-surgical care time.\nAs minimally invasive operations are performed through small incisions, and the manipulation capability of rigid surgical instruments is limited, gaining access to the surgical site can be challenging. This is especially true for body cavities with confined spaces like the knee, the hip, and the ankle.\nPoor reachability results in unwanted workflow interruptions that increase the procedure time and causes stress for both the surgeon and the patient. Now, surgeons use up to 8 pre-bent punches per procedure to reach the pathologic area. If the correct pre-bent instrument is not available, the instruments need to be forced for adequate beak-tissue alignment, ultimately increasing the risk for damage to healthy tissues. Besides the risk for the patient, surgeons can injure their wrist and fatigue their arm when instruments are used in uncomfortable positions. In addition, having multiple pre-bent instruments available during the procedure leads to relatively high purchase and sterilization costs.\nWatch the Steerable Punch in action during a meniscectomy!\nSurge-on Medical will launch the Steerable Punch on the market in 2019.\nBe an innovator! Pre-order the Steerable Punch.\nIts unique combination of features are essential aspects required in arthroscopic surgery that cannot be found in other endoscopic instruments.\nThe Steerable Punch is just the first instrument in the line of steerable arthroscopic devices. Our multi-patented platform technology can be integrated into any surgical instrument with a round shaft. Soon, Surge-on Medical will adapt arthroscopic graspers, oval punches, scissors and more end effectors to the steerable tip to fulfill the needs of arthroscopic and trauma surgeons in all fields of interest.", "domain": "design"}

Consequently, radiant heating panels are becoming more popular for existing homes and new construction. Radiant heating panels provide efficient and even heat distribution and many advantages over traditional heating methods.\nUnderstanding the benefits of this heating system technology will help you make the best decision for your home’s needs. Whether you’re looking for an added level of luxury comfort or cost-saving efficiency, there’s a radiant heating option for you.\nMost homes across the U.S. are heated using either a furnace or boiler, and many systems rely on older, inefficient systems using fossil fuels to heat the air that circulates through the home. Unlike traditional methods using forced air or convection, radiant panels operate by emitting infrared radiation, directly warming objects and surfaces in a room.\nThis targeted approach minimizes heat loss and ensures all energy expended contributes to a warmer living space. By heating objects and people rather than air, these panels allow for comfort at lower temperatures. This results in lower energy use and reduced heating costs.\nForced air systems turn on and off with temperature fluctuations, resulting in uneven temperatures and chilly drafts. Radiant heating panels, on the other hand, ensure a consistent, cozy warmth throughout your living space.\nInstead of having noisy systems that shut on and off and air circulating dust and dander throughout your home, you can enjoy a quiet and peaceful environment at the temperature of your choice.\nStrategically placed radiant panels allow you to enjoy a luxurious level of comfort, whether stepping onto a floor that provides gentle warmth or curling up in a cozy room with a good book. With radiant heating panels, you can enjoy targeted heating where needed.\nSay goodbye to clunky radiators and unsightly vents when implementing a heating solution that blends seamlessly with your interior design. Radiant heating panels provide warmth while serving as a stylish and space-saving addition to your home.\nRadiant panels are discretely installed beneath the floor or within walls, eliminating the need for bulky radiators taking up space in your home. The design integration allows you to set up furniture and decor exactly how you want, optimizing your living space without compromising comfort.\nFurther, radiant heating panels are compatible with various construction materials, from tile to hardwood, allowing homeowners to choose the aesthetic that best suits their taste. That means you can add radiant heating panels to your existing home design or a new space during construction.\nBeyond providing warmth, radiant heating panels contribute to an often-overlooked aspect of HVAC systems – indoor air quality. Unlike forced air systems that can stir up dust and allergens, radiant panels operate without circulating air, creating a cleaner and healthier home.\nTraditional heating methods, such as forced-air systems, can distribute airborne particles, leading to respiratory issues for sensitive individuals. In contrast, radiant heating panels do not rely on air movement, minimizing the disturbance of dust and allergens. This is especially beneficial for anyone suffering from allergies or respiratory concerns, as the radiant heat promotes a healthier atmosphere by reducing the circulation of airborne pollutants.\nRadiant heating solutions provide innovative technology that enhances your home’s comfort, efficiency, and aesthetics. Radiant heating panels redefine how you can experience warmth, offering unmatched levels of coziness while remaining energy-efficient and stylish.\nWhether you’re looking to upgrade your existing system or considering a radiant system for new construction, reach out to Nova Supply to explore the wide range of radiant heating panel options available.

It can be applied to any vaporizer you own and is compatible with Juul Pods the favorite Smok vaporizers that come standard generally in most major retailers.\nThe primary distinctive feature of the SMOK NOVO ultra vaporizer is its exceptional quality, which is unsurpassed by other vaporizers on the market today. In addition to being probably the most advanced vaporizers on the market, it features two unique, stainless steel pods that have a capacity of up to forty-two milliliters each and a car shut off feature. It comes with an adjustable wattage control, so you can change the heat level based on how you need to use it. It is also built with a distinctive eight-step temperature control dial, which enables an individual to adjust the heat according to how they feel during each of their numerous uses.\nThe wonder of the Smok Novo lies in the heat delivery system. It uses a patented autodraw device, which helps to ensure the proper temperature level is reached constantly. Simply because the heating element itself has a ballast, which continuously monitors the temperature and adjusts the heat accordingly. When you initially receive your Smok Novo, it comes with a sixteen-volt reload kit. The preload ensures that all sixteen cells in the kit are charged and ready to go when you plug the unit in. However, should anyone ever need to replace a dead cell, all you need to do is remove the old cell and snap the heat plugs set up.\nThe novo pod system is made up of four separate chambers. Each chamber contains four individually controlled ovens. The first chamber is built to release heat gradually to evenly distribute heat. The next and third chambers maintain this constant temperature throughout the entire device while the fourth allows for a quick burst of extra power.\nThe move comes with an eighteen-month warranty together with universal voltage adapters in order that it may be used in both battery and gas/oil based devices. The novo pods themselves are reusable, and that means you don’t have to waste any extra batteries as well as change gas refills. You can also use adapters to hook the pods directly to your oil or gas grill. As the novo comes with a starter kit and universal voltage adapters, it makes it convenient to assemble and install; making it ideal for anyone who is searching for a portable air conditioner.\nSmok Novo kits can be found in two basic styles–the compact style and the full-sized style. As well as the different sizes, each design of Smok Pod will come in different colors and patterns. Additionally, there are a few styles that incorporate both quartz and stainless steel coils. Smok Quartz may be the most popular choice because of its superior performance and reliability. Both stainless steel and quartz have the ability to conduct heat very well and are therefore ideal for use with both fuel and non-fuel based cooking devices.\nThere is also a third version of the Smok Novo that’s known as the Smok Nova. This unit includes a larger heating surface compared to the other two models and permits more efficient vapor production. Furthermore, the air quality of this machine is excellent because of its dual ventilation system. It features an aluminum plate for anodizing and a big glass window, which enable excellent air flow. It is the perfect addition to any professional barbecue grill or smoker since it produces high-quality flavorful snacks.", "domain": "design"}

GLYDE-II supports the representation of chemical structrures at different levels of granularity using a object model to formally define molecular partonomy and linkages between the parts.\nThe GLYDE-II standard is based on a connection table formalism using XML syntax. The syntax of a GLYDE-II document is fully defined by its schema (either a DTD or XML Schema), which provides a framework we call PARCCHMENT (PARtonomy of CHeMical ENTities). PARCHMENT allows the complete structure of biological molecules (including complex glycans) to be completely and unambiguously specified at several level of granularity. Semantic constraint on structures are enforced when translating to our Glycomics Object Model (GOM) or GlycO. For more information see GLYDE-II - GLYcan structural Data Exchange using Connection Tables\nCurrently the syntax for GLYDE-II is given in the form of a Document Type Definition (DTD). It defines various structural types such as atoms (free and bound), residues, moieties, molecules and aggregates, etc. as well as their linkages. The latest version is GLYDE-II_v1.0.0.DTD\nThe Glycomics Object Model (GOM) provides a convenient way to translate GLYDE-II XML documents into other forms such as GlycO OWL instances. The object model was design using UML and classes were coded in Java. The correspondence with GLYDE-II is nearly one-to-one, as shown in the UML Class Diagram for GOM.", "domain": "design"}

The Millenial generation, in particular, is noted for upholding values of shared social responsibility, sustainability and a connection to local community.\nBut May has passed, and and here in Stamford, the wrecking balls and demolition crews worked mightily fast over the weekend — probably in the middle of the night — to destroy Bedford Hall, a historic building. This neoclassical house, built between 1900-1907, proudly stood for over a century at 545 Bedford St., next to the First Congregational Church, built in 1912, and just a few blocks from the restaurants and shops along the block of contiguous, intact historic buildings on Bedford Street.\nBedford Hall, an elegant, neoclassical columned, turn of the century home, will give way to yet another box rental apartment that is dull and characterless. A six-story rental building of more than 80 apartments will replace this once majestic home, noted for its neoclassical Corinthian columns, welcoming front lawn, inviting portico and overall architectural elegance. In its hundred years of existence, Bedford Hall carried a multi-faceted pedigree; having been a private home, a gracious inn in the 1940s with what was deemed one of the finest eating establishments in the area, a funeral home in the late 1950s, and most recently, a real estate office. The architectural style of neoclassicism marked a renewed interest in Greek and Roman architecture, and is closely related to Colonial Revival, as both look back on a time in American architecture when classical forms dominated.\nIt is no secret that Stamford has always been a developer’s town, and the notion of making historic preservation a serious priority in our city, is sadly, decades late. Developers have moved quickly to demolish buildings that have significant historical credentials, replaced by inexpensive, architecturally lifeless boxes of office buildings, apartments, and strip malls. This has been the name of the game since Urban Renewal took hold in the 1960s; and through out five decades of development, a hodgepodge of unattractive buildings — from architecturally dull office buildings to multi story parking lots, to the massive, fortress-like Stamford Town Center, have taken hold in our city. Sadly, a preponderance of these buildings which were built during various decades, and have little architectural relation to one another, offer little aesthetic appeal. There are a few exceptions — notably, the historic downtown district that encompasses the Old Town Hall, Bank Street, parts of Main Street and areas of Bedford Street.\nPreservation talk in Stamford has recently been at the forefront of issues in downtown Stamford, with the focus primarily on the Post Office building on Atlantic Street which will, at some juncture, give way to two luxury apartment towers, with retail and restaurants in the original building, keeping the original building intact. There should have been more residential outcry for Bedford Hall, given its relatable, smaller size, and intimate but grand appeal. This elegant home connected us to Bedford Street’s gracious past, anchoring us in today’s time of social, economic and environmental change. It fit neatly into its neighborhood with the century old First Congregational Church next door, and just steps away from Latham Park, and the Avon Theater, built in 1939, as well as a community of shops and restaurants down the block. Now it is but another symbol of the disappearance and destruction of historical Stamford.\nOn an optimistic note, we are fortunate that Bedford Hall’s architectural companion survives a few miles north on Newfield Avenue, on the campus of King school. Simon House, a similar, grand neoclassical home, has served as the signature building for the independent school campus; and is universally regarded by the school’s community of faculty, parents and students, as an emblematic building, symbolizing the school’s notable history.\nFor developers, there are attractive tax incentives and generous grants to promote the rehabilitation, renovation and care for historical spaces. Could Bedford Hall have been saved by moving it to another location or by renovating it to give way to an attractive boutique inn, an upscale restaurant or a trendy retail establishment? Absolutely! Do we need yet another apartment building? I think not.\nThe notion of leaving a legacy to generations is not only about financial matters; it is also about a sense of local community; of repairing and preserving what is left, that is of historical value, rather than simply throwing away and obliterating our city’s shared past.", "domain": "design"}

Our trainers use exercises, simulations, use cases, and collaboration to create a rich learning experience that goes beyond mere lectures. Whether you are an experienced Product Manager or are seeking new ways to grow your career, this class will push your limits and expand your comfort zone.\nStudents learn the principles behind the practices and work on real-life exercises to apply the concepts and develop deeper confidence. We believe that real learning comes in three ways: a great training program, shared experiences with other participants, and hands-on practice. This is why we deliver this class in-person only, so that you can take full advantage of a rich and deep learning experience.\nAfter the class and for a period of six weeks you have the opportunity for continued hands-on practice of the principles and methods learned in the class. This is the opportunity to internalize the learning and apply the concepts to a real work project. Participants select a product to work on and develop it in a rapid 6-week cycle, at the end of which they can have a validated plan to build the product. The 6-week period is structured to focus on one key step each week. Participants work at that step and get coaching on how best to execute or help if they get stuck:\nWeek 1: Customer identification and interview preparation\nWeek 2: Customer discovery and sense-making\nWeek 3: Ideation and rapid prototyping\nWeek 4: Product vision, business model definition, MVP definition\nWeek 5: Product journey map and prioritization\nWeek 6: Roadmapping, metrics, outcome validation\n- Participants are required to check-in with the instructor and to provide a deliverable for evaluation at least three times throughout the 6-week period.\n- Coaching is provided in a one-on-one weekly conf-call or via email. For private classes when appropriately arranged, coaching can also be provided on-site.\nParticipants in the Spark Engine Product Innovator program also get follow-up coaching support on how to apply the learnings to their real-life projects and jobs. This is offered for free, via email, for 6 months after the class.\nUpon completion of the in-person class and the 6-week program, participants earn the coveted Spark Engine Product Innovator (SEPI) certification. This certification attests not only the attendance of the class and the learning of foundational practices, but also the successful application to a real-life project of the product innovation practices and mindset.\nThere is no exam. The program is designed to be highly experiential as we believe that real learning comes from experience, not from passive studying of concepts.\nWHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU\nBecome a kick*ss product manager\nThe Spark Engine program at-a-glance\nWho should apply?\nThe Spark Engine Product Innovator (SEPI) certification program expands expertise and mindset for those in roles responsible for driving innovation within their organization and leading product development efforts, such as:\n- Product Managers, Product Owners, and entrepreneurs looking to expand their expertise in product innovation and learn what process and tools of creative thinking are needed to generate and execute new breakthrough ideas for their organization.\n- Product leaders who want to understand how to drive product innovation and manage innovation within the organization.\n- Product Owners that are seeking to develop further expertise in applied product management practices to drive innovation within their organization.\n- Business Analysts and Project Managers who have a responsibility for product development and desire to expand their skillset and experience\nThe Spark Engine Product Innovator class is designed to be enriching for any level of experience in product development. However, it is preferable if you have some of the following:\n- Experience in a product development role\n- Familiarity with key concepts of Agile, Scrum, and Agile product development\n- Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO) or SAFe Product Owner/Product Manager (POPM) certifications, or similar experience\nThe Spark Engine Product Innovator (SEPI) class assumes Scrum (and Agile) expertise as a foundational skill-set. The focus is therefore not so much on Agile practices, but rather on key drivers of innovation such as human-centered design, team empowerment, and continuous discovery and delivery.", "domain": "design"}

This distributed weight is placed on the hitch and thus on the vehicle itself. This tongue weight (TW) varies from a class 1 hitch of 200 lbs. to 1700 lbs. for a class 5 hitch.\n- Just like pulling a trailer, hauling a load in the rear of the vehicle will affect the handling of the vehicle. Keeping the weight at or below the limit and having proper tread on the tires and proper inflation is very important.\n- The distance of the center of gravity extended from the hitch receiver end should also be considered. Minimizing this distance will facilitate staying within the limits of the hitch and not adversely affect the handling of the vehicle. As the center of gravity is extended excessively rearward (aft), the front of the vehicle will experience a ‘lifting effect’ and reduce traction or steering ability of the vehicle.\n- For hitch selection, limits, and vehicle applications, please consult the following sites for information on loads and hitch classifications: http://www.drawtite-hitches.com, http://www.hiddenhitch.com, or http://www.curtmfg.com\nSTABILIZING THE MOTORCYCLE:\n- Hauling with a carrier, unlike towing on a trailer, is balancing and controlling a load on the rear of the vehicle.\n- Keep in mind, the motorcycle is secured on the carrier in a position transverse or perpendicular to the orientation of the vehicle. In a sudden stop or acceleration, the motorcycle will tend to pitch toward the vehicle (for) and away from the vehicle (aft) respectively.\n- This pitching force can be significant depending on the weight of the cycle and its center of gravity.\n- The front wheel should be chocked against a stop and tied with rigid ties to the tray or placed in a deep channel or pocket and secured with cam-lock style ties (no rubber or ‘bungee’ ties). Pulling the front forks to a fully compressed state is not necessary if the wheel is chocked properly.\n- Both cycle wheels must be secured to the tray with lashing traps or bundling style ties (again, rubber or ‘bungee’ ties are NOT recommended)\nThis consists of a vertical bar that is mounted to the carrier receiver tube and tied semi-rigidly to the cycle. This is very effective in stabilizing the cycle and becomes critical in the event of an extreme maneuver i.e. sudden stop or harsh turn. Also, this allows moving the cycle in, closer to the vehicle, without the risk of the cycle hitting the vehicle. When using two vertical sta-bars, the bike is essentially cradled on both sides preventing any movement.\n- Vertical Stabilization is particularly important on road bikes or bikes with a high center of gravity. These cycles will be difficult to control by tie downs alone or a locking wheel chock unless the carrying tray is extended 6-18” further away from the vehicle to allow the sway or pitch to clear the back of the vehicle.\nNOTE: As the carrier is extended excessively rearward, strain on the suspension increases and vehicle handling performance deteriorates.\nback the of vehicle, minimizing the load on the vehicle’s shocks/springs\nSMALLER MOTORCYCLES AND OTHER ISSUES:\n- Smaller cycles i.e. under 120 lbs can be pulled or leaned against the vehicle with padding and tied to the roof, roof rack, or tailgate for stabilization. Vertical stabilization should be used to secure the bike, also but is less significant as the weight decreases. A spare tire that is rear mounted can be used to secure the bike and will also provide a cushion against pitching for smaller motorcycles.\n- Vertically stabilizing the cycle also permits better ground clearance. In some cases, the carrier outriggers (horizontal tie down bars) are up to 3’ long and reduce ground clearance of the carrier significantly.\n- Always inspect the hitch before and at stops on trips. Inspect the hitch for proper bolt attachment and severe corrosion. If the vehicle is older, the hitch is likely to be the weak link in the system.\n- After loading and tying the cycle down, inspect again after a short trip for shifting and at least every 300 miles thereafter.\n- Always be sure the state tag (license plate) is visible from the back of the vehicle to avoid safety citations.\n- Use magnetic or permanently attached trailer or towing\n- lights if the carrier and/or cycle blocks the taillights on the hauling vehicle.", "domain": "design"}

The monks planted a range of herbs and flowers for medicinal purposes. The Winchcombe family set out more formal gardens and parkland including a walled kitchen garden and a bowling green.\nThe gardens fell into a derelict state following the fire at Bucklebury House in 1832 when the family moved to their other home, Lyegrove, in Gloucestershire.\nIt was not until the early 1990’s that the gardens were redesigned from what were pony paddocks. The principle of the design was to create a series of rooms that would connect with each other. A freelance gardener, Trevor Last (formerly Head Gardener at The Old Rectory, Burghfield) set about creating the hard structure delineated by gravel paths, brick walls, steps and yew hedges. More recently the herbaceous borders and Long Walk have been remodelled.\nThe gardens envelop the house and now connect the monastic fishponds and ancient parkland surrounding the house. A major part of the project was the restoration of the Walled Kitchen garden which is set out in a symmetrical design using box hedging. Vegetables, fruit and flowers are now grown for the house. A purpose built greenhouse was added to the kitchen garden in 2015. A small orchard can be found behind the greenhouse.\nThe formal gardens are divided into “rooms”. There is a Potager Garden (herb garden), a Maze Garden (created in the shape of a circle and constructed of turf and bricks) with an obelisk in the middle commemorating the millennium. The main garden to the South of the House is set down to lawn with herbaceous borders; this connects to the Spring Garden. The Spring Garden is planted with spring bulbs which then rotate into a wild flower meadow in summer. The Spring Garden connects to the Woodland Garden, medieval fishponds and parkland beyond. The main thoroughfare through the garden is the Long Walk which connects the Main House with the Fishponds and divides the Walled Garden from the more formal “rooms”. These are accessed through an apple and pear walk trained in a semi arch thus providing shade from the summer sun. The Monastic garden, or Sunken Garden consists of a square pleached lime cloister with a sunken circular garden in the middle. A new Sky Mirror Chalice water feature was installed into the sunken garden in the Summer of 2016 reflecting the ecclesiastical connection to Reading Abbey and providing a focal point within the garden. At the rear of the Monastic garden and Maze garden is a Hazel Walk that connects the Potager Garden with the Fishponds.\nComplementing the formal gardens are large areas of open lawns and parkland. The family have continued a long tradition of planting oak trees in the parkland to mark special birthdays or anniversaries.\nThe original drive to the House was replanted with Oak Trees in 1992 which makes a pleasant approach to the House from the North. New wrought iron gates were erected in 2015 when a major project to repair and rebuild the brick walls around the house. The arms on the gates are of the Winchcombe family.\nThe gardens continue to evolve with new plantings and trees. In 2009 new climbing fruit trees were planted in the walled garden. In 2010 a number of new oaks were planted in the Parkland to the East of the House and a new fruit cage was constructed in the walled garden. Parkland fencing is another feature introduced to the grounds in 2013 and 2015.\nA new project has been the restoration of Littlefence Wood which sits to the south of the house. The wood contains a wonderful collection of ferns, a monastic fishpond as well as carpets of bluebells in the Spring.\nThe family occasionally open the gardens to the public.", "domain": "design"}

I was finding that vests with the zip fronts were not built for women because of the obvious, lack of proper fit through the bust area. And the vest usually had sleeve caps or arm holes that hung over the tops of my arm.\nIt just so happened that my husband purchased a new vest and he had decided once we got it home, for one reason or another, that he was going to use his old vest. Men and women are definitely made of different fiber. What woman wouldn’t give up her old stuff for something new? Things that make you go….Hmmm??? I decided to try the vest on and I think as luck would have it…I found the perfect women’s turkey hunting vest.\nThis vest is still an awesome vest for men; however it is made with some options that allow for adjustments in all the right places for us women. The turkey vest is the Limbhanger turkey vest by Mossy Oak/Russell Outdoors.\nThis vest incorporates a quick release buckle front and adjustable slide tabs on each side to adjust to a person’s correct girth/waist size so the vest is not just hanging loose rattling everything that is in it while you are on the move. It has padded shoulder straps that are adjustable allowing for the perfect fit in the bust area. The front pocket panels are below the bust allowing for shoulder and side adjustment. It also has a foam back pad insert that slides into a pocket between your shoulder blades for padding when leaning against a tree and a quick release 2.5 inch foam cushion that has adjustments on the bottom as well as the sides.\nThe vest has a slate call pocket, three magnetic closure striker pockets, two locator call pockets, a formed box call pocket with a built in chalk pocket, a file style mouth call pocket, a built in striker conditioner, two zipper pockets on the outside, two zipper pockets on the inside, a quick release game bag and sewn in safety orange flags that stow away in their own special pouch. This vest has a MSRP of $89.99 and can be purchased online at www.mossyoak.com or at Bass Pro Shops.\n© Nancy Jo Adams 2009", "domain": "design"}

One answer comes in the form of a permaculture principle, designing from patterns to details: “By stepping back, we can observe patterns in nature and society. These can form the backbone of our designs, with the details filled in as we go.” (1) At first, it may seem faster and easier to skip the “big picture” learning and just memorize random bits of information about plants as you go along– like the facts that basil generally grows well in full sun and moist soil–, but the truth is that these details may not be very memorable in and of themselves; they may become overwhelming as you deal with more and more plants; and they may not add up to much enjoyment or environmental awareness for you as a gardener or as a would-be steward of sustainability in Southern Nevada.\nIf you can pause to pay attention to the patterns surrounding this season’s featured plants, then you can start to see similar patterns around a variety of other plants that are related to them climatically, taxonomically, and structurally. This shifting of focus means gradually trading memorization of miscellaneous botanical details for increased understanding of interrelated plant patterns.\nFor instance, if you want to get in the habit of cooking meals at home, and you want to make this easier for yourself by growing some basic ingredients like garlic and onions, then you can learn a lot by paying attention to the natural patterns surrounding green (bunching) onions. You will find that many of these patterns also apply to other allium family plants, including garlic and common bulbing onions.\nAnother goal of yours may be to grow plants that are well-adapted to the American Southwest or other desert environments. In this case, paying careful attention to the ‘Yoeme Purple String’ bean will yield much understanding of the patterns surrounding dryland-adapted plants.\nOr maybe you have a very windy yard and struggle to find the right plants for it.

The connection of the Croatian Pelješac peninsula to the mainland to bypass a short stretch of the coastline of Bosnia and Herzegovina began three years ago.\nThe project is worth € 550 million, although most of the funding comes from the European Union.\nIn order to meet the main design quality criteria, such as stability, durability, economy and integration into the environment, the inventive design proposed the construction of an overdosed bridge with an integrated hybrid structure comprising five central spans, each 285 m long, and six low pylons. AA particularly careful approach has been taken to ensure durability over an extended service life of over 130 years.\nCortec’s MCI® 2018 was specified on this project during the design phase as a silane-based impregnation with a migration inhibitor property to protect against the harmful effects of corrosion, thus extending the life of the bridge. . MCI® 2018 is a 100% silane-based concrete sealer containing migrating corrosion inhibitors that allows deep penetration into concrete and provides water impermeability by chemically reacting with the cementitious substrate. It seals surface pores, prevents intrusion of chlorides, reduces carbonation and protects against the penetration of wind-driven rain. Treated concrete surfaces are fully breathable and their natural water vapor transmission is not affected.\nAfter repairing surface damage and cleaning up discolorations and other surface defects, the concrete surface of the pylons should be protected with a colorless silane coating to improve durability and increase the resistance of the concrete surface to external influences. long term. MCI®-2018 carries CE certification which indicates compliance with health, safety and environmental protection standards for products sold in the European Economic Area (EEA).\n85mm stainless steel reinforcement and impregnation of all concrete surfaces with MCI®-2018 was chosen as a strategy to help the bridge reach a service life of 130 years. MCI®-2018 was applied over the entire substructure of the bridge. All concrete parts were coated with MCI®-2018 by a spray technique. The work was carried out in accordance with the requirements of the project and after preparation of the surface to full functionality. This included:\n- Access to pylons\n- Rehabilitation of the concrete surface of the pylons\n- Cleaning of the concrete surface of the pylon (washing the pillars with water)\n- Impregnation of the concrete surface of the pylon with MCI®-2018.\nMCI®-2018 contains proven migratory corrosion inhibitors (MCI®). The silane component provides water impermeability by chemically reacting with the cementitious substrate under proper application, decreasing the penetration of aggressive materials. The product penetrates deep into the concrete, providing corrosion protection to the reinforcing steel against existing water and chloride ions, or other contaminants. For the Pelješac bridge, continuous monitoring of the condition of the structure at a central location will be carried out during the construction phase and the operation phase to examine the parameters of structural behavior, weather, seismic activity and the structural durability.\nThe bridge designer specified corrosion protection for all concrete segments to achieve a service life of 130 years. When completed, the Pelješac Bridge will be ranked as one of the five largest and most attractive European bridges, built at the start of the 21st century. This important new structure connects two distinct parts of Croatia and bypasses border posts on the short coastal strip near Neum in Bosnia and Herzegovina.\nCortec CEO Boris Miksic, a Croatian-American businessman, is proud that his patented technology was used on this landmark project to connect two parts of his country. “Our MCI® technology is used in major construction projects around the world. I have devoted more than forty years of my life to developing the most advanced and environmentally friendly corrosion protection solutions. To witness its application in my home country on this monumental bridge structure is really a special feeling. Croatia has gone through difficult times, having had to fight for its independence in a war 30 years ago. Seeing it thrive and develop in one of Europe’s most coveted countries seems quite right and the completion of the Pelješac Bridge is a huge step forward for all of us.\nYou can read more about the migration of corrosion inhibitors (MCI®) here: https://www.cortecmci.com/", "domain": "design"}

In this article we will talk about different fabrics and the basic features of each one:\n- Natural linen:\nNatural linen is better suited for adult seating areas because it soils and wrinkles easily. It resists pilling and fading but will wear rather fast. Natural linen should be professionally cleaned to avoid shrinkage.\nVinyl is easier to care for and less expensive than leather. It suits households where there are children and pets. It can be damp cleaned and gently vacuumed. It will resist staining but can be easily torn with sharp objects. It is not preferred for outdoor rocking chairs as it tends to dry. It is also going to get affected by the temperature, meaning that it will feel hot in hot weather and cold in cold weather. The durability of vinyl will depend on its quality.\nWool is sturdy and durable. It is often combined with synthetic fibers to avoid felting. It offers good resistance to wrinkling, fading, pilling and soil. Wool blends can be spot cleaned when necessary. It is warm and cozy and can be used in the living room or the bedroom.\nSilk should be used only in adult seating areas because it can soil easily. Silk rocking chairs are very elegant and will add a rich touch to any home but they are very difficult to care for. Silk chairs will stay cool and will give an unmatched sense of elegance.\nThis fabric developed to imitate silk but it resists shrinking and mildew. It shouldn’t however be chosen if your rocking chair is going to be used heavily. The colors also fade in the sun so it should be avoided if you plan on keeping your rocking chair in the porch.\nThis fabric imitates wool without all the shortcomings of the natural fabric. It resists wear, soiling, fading and pilling. The best fabrics are of high quality and would probably last for a very long time.\nNylon is rarely used alone but it can be combined with other fibers to be one of the most durable upholstery fabrics. It doesn’t soil or wrinkle and is suitable for outdoor rocking chairs. It doesn’t shrink or fade in the sun.\nThis is a good choice for rocking chairs that will receive heavy wear. It colors fast and the dyes stay stable. It resists staining, mildew and abrasion.\nUnderstanding your situation and needs will help you choose the right upholstery fabric. No matter what you choose, your rocking chairs will always be elegant and unique.", "domain": "design"}

In this process it helps that people feel how enthusiastic I am. I stand behind every decision. My colleagues learn that immediately. ” Wendelin Wiedeking, CEO, Porsche, 1993-2009.\nThe industry that best exemplifies how brands are built based on design is the automotive industry. On a theoretical level, the premise of making a car is simple: a few engineering principles need to acquire material form before they can be assembled to configure what is known to be a car. But what determines how good this car is in terms of performance and aesthetics?\nIn other words, how does one organize all the engineering principles to come up with a particular operation? Subsequently, how does that operation manifest itself from the drafting board to real life? What makes everything work? It is all in the execution. Design is what makes things not just good but great.\nPorsche, one of the most revered brands both because of its long history but also because of its achievements, has proved time and again that form both stems from good design and expresses good design. Architect Mies van der Rohe’s dictum “form follows function” has found its perfect manifestation in Porsche 911, a legendary car that has been in production since 1963 and has been evolving ever since.\nAccording to Fred Heiler of the New York Times “[w]ith improvements in tires, brakes and suspension systems, cars were now able to corner and stop so hard that the engine would starve for lubrication as oil sloshed away from the supply tube of the circulating pump. To prevent this, the 911 engine was given two oil pumps, one to keep a reservoir tank full of oil and a second pump to feed oil from the tank to the moving parts, regardless of cornering, acceleration or braking forces. This so-called dry-sump system also eliminates the deep oil pan that normally hangs below the engine, making it possible to lower the mounting point and improve handling.” (Fred Heiler, “Timeless, but not frozen in time,” The New York Times, Automobiles section, May 26, 2013).\nWhat this means is that a mechanical problem that others had tried to solve by reconfiguring the car’s only oil pump, Porsche solved by adding a second pump. By doing so, it dramatically altered the configuration of the engine; the engine’s operation; the engine’s performance; and the mounting between the engine and the chassis. The latter directly affected the appearance of the car, which was now configured to be lower, a trait that is associated with racing cars because the lower the engine the better the handling in great speeds. In other words, what is aesthetically pleasing in a racing car’s appearance is also a safety feature. Form follows function indeed.\nPorsche has never really deviated from this recipe. The brand’s executives respect the nature of the product (racing car) and, over the years, have introduced innovations that begin within the product’s core: its engine. And since changes in the engine have a ripple effect on every single part of the car, as already demonstrated, alterations in the car’s appearance have occurred but have been minimal. These minimal modifications have allowed the brand to adjust to the times and always look contemporary while also remaining true to its original shape and lines.\nThat’s good design. And good design is what makes a brand timeless and consistently relevant.\n© Thomaï Serdari", "domain": "design"}

Once the client has signed off on this, we move onto the development phase.\nThe i-Con Test Harness was born over time when we kept finding ourselves waiting for systems to become available. These systems would be the Provider of information that the Consumer required. As the Broker we had the power to control where the messages were sent, as well as the content of the messages.\nEventually it made more and more sense that ProSolutions Integration offered a product that could be used to shorten the project test cycles. By applying the test harness during the Development (Dev) and End-To-End (ETE) environments, we have found that the test cycles in a System Integration Testing (SIT) environment are more efficient and tend to be a lot shorter.\nIn this phase we create any custom components needed to address all specified requirements. We create the event processes and integration flows based on ProSolutions best practise. We also document and test all event processes.\nWe perform functionality and load testing on all event processes. We implement the testing harness.\n5. Going Live\nWe run User Acceptance Tests (UAT) and train the users. The project is signed off, and we are almost done.\nAt ProSolutions we don’t believe that a project is finished just because we have handed it over and it has gone live. During this final, but ongoing phase of a project, we provide maintenance and support services for the deployed event processes. We continue to design, test and deploy enhancements to existing event processes as well as designing, testing and deploying new event processes to meet new requirements. We provide ongoing monitoring of services as well as quarterly optimisations and audits/reviews of event processes.\nNote that the i-Con Test Harness is used for integration testing to shorten the testing cycles normally encountered when Provider systems are not available during the DEV and ETE stages of a project.\nProSolutions delivers i-Con training and certification to interface developers, administrators, and support staff. While these courses have structured content to provide the most effective knowledge transfer possible, they are also customisable to suit the customer and their specific requirements.\nThe training delivered to the client during the implementation process will ensure that the development of all interfaces identified can be undertaken in-house. However, ProSolutions is well positioned to assist the client should additional development resource be required. The services offered can range from individual consultants through to fixed price delivery on defined pieces of work.\nOngoing support is provided under the annual maintenance agreement. A Service Level Agreement (SLA) will be entered into with the client, detailing support available for the application environment, as well as outlining additional services that can be delivered around training, further roll out etc.", "domain": "design"}

Staging can even make your home more attractive and draw the attention of prospective buyers, which in turn leads to an increased sale price. In this blog, I’m going to share with you a few practical tips in order to make sure your home is properly established and maximizes its potential for sale. Prepare yourself for the transformation of your space into a buyer's dream!\n- Declutter and Depersonalize:\nYou can start by cleaning out your home and removing items that belong to you. The removal of unneeded belongings provides a feeling of space and allows the prospective purchaser to imagine that they will live in the building. To create a neutral canvas that is attractive to a wide range of purchasers, we pack away personal photographs, mementos, and excessive decorations.\n2. Deep Clean Every Inch:\nIn order to leave a lasting impression on potential buyers, the home must be clean. Clean every room, and pay attention to areas that do not get a lot of attention, like the baseboards, lights, or windows. In order to ensure that your dwelling feels fresh and inviting, it is necessary to clean the carpet and remove stains or odors.\n3. Highlight Key Features:\nIn order to attract buyers, you should show off your home's best features. These focal points are what draw attention, whether they be architectural detail or a beautiful fireplace, or stunning views. To draw attention to the cheerful aspects of each room and create a visual appeal and usable space, use strategic placement of furniture and illumination.\n4. Neutralize Colors and Styles:\nWhile you're fond of bold colors or unique décor, it's best to create a neutral environment during the rehearsal process. Choose neutral tones to paint your walls, and go for a uniform color scheme throughout the house. Neutral colors are a blank canvas for potential buyers, allowing them to perceive their own style and preferences.\n5. Create Inviting Spaces:\nSet up furniture to create an inviting and functional atmosphere in each room, which highlights its flow. The rooms should be made as comfortable and inviting as possible by using the appropriate sized furniture.

They serve as an affordable means to revamp your home décor. Moreover, their innate property of making small spaces appear bigger makes them a popular choice among home interior experts. Being an important home decoration facet, wall mirrors online are available in a wide range of options. Similarly, there are plenty of ideas that you can use to create a fun effect with mirrors. But not orientations of mirror placement are deemed fit for home décor. Considering this, we have come up with an expert-curated guide to enlighten you on the right ways of mirror placement.\nSo let’s get started…\nDo’s of using mirrors\n- Use mirrors in tiny rooms:\nPlacing a large mirror in a small room creates an illusion of depth, thereby enabling your space to appear big. Moreover, experts recommend placing a big mirror on the wall above the dining table or across a piece of artwork to create an impactful illusion. This also lends a modern tone to your compact apartments.\n- Make mirrors a focal point\nOne bold piece of the mirror can set the tone for the entire room. Place them in the dressing room or corners, they can create an alluring impact. For an added effect, you can place a spotlight or ceiling light behind the mirror. This will create a focal point that is worth grabbing attention.\n- Use mirrors in narrow hallways and entrances\nIf you have narrow hallways or staircases then consider decking it with a small horizontal mirror. This will widen up space and make it appear bigger. Additionally, it will also create a flow from room to room.\nDont’s of using mirrors\n- Do not use mirrors on the ceiling\nSounds obvious, but it needs to be mentioned anyways. Affixing a mirror on the ceiling may appear gaudy therefore it is best to do not to opt for this idea.\n- Do not overboard mirrors in the kitchen\nUsing mirrors in the kitchen is not necessary. Although there is no significant drawback, it can raise multiple issues such as regular water spots. Thus, placing a mirror in the kitchen needs a lot of maintenance which may not be suitable for the long term.\n- Don’t hang mirrors where you sleep\nAccording to home design, experts hanging mirrors in the sleeping area is not recommended. Since a mirror in the bedroom can reflect the bed, it is not a sign of good luck. They also create illusions that can distract your sleep, thereby making it hard for you to fall asleep. And if it is absolutely needed, then choose a spot where you can’t see your reflection.\n- Don’t place opposite to the front door\nAvoid hanging mirrors opposite the front door. This is because as per the Chinese philosophy of Feng Shui placing mirrors this way repels opportunities coming your way.\nAt last, make sure to abide by the feng shui rules. Don’t just hang mirrors randomly around the home, do some research, and then proceed accordingly.", "domain": "design"}

Encouraging residents to incorporate active travel into their daily routine can improve their health and reduce their healthcare costs.\nRecognizing the benefits of encouraging active transportation, VISION 2050 recommends a well-connected bicycle and pedestrian network that improves access to activity centers, neighborhoods, and other destinations in the Region. This includes providing on-street bicycle facilities (such as bike lanes or paved shoulders), enhanced bicycle facilities (such as protected bike lanes or a separate path within a road’s right-of-way), off-street bicycle paths, and accessible pedestrian facilities.\nNote: VISION 2050 is currently being updated. To learn more, visit the 2024 Review & Update page.\nExpand the on-street bicycle network as streets are resurfaced and reconstructed.\nAdd bike lanes, paved shoulders, widened outside travel lanes, or enhanced bicycle facilities, if feasible, as the existing surface arterial street network of about 3,300 miles is resurfaced and reconstructed. VISION 2050 considers providing one type of bicycle facility to be sufficient to accommodate bicycles on a given surface arterial street. In other words, if a separate path is provided adjacent to a surface arterial street, another type of bicycle facility would not be needed. Local nonarterial streets, because of low traffic volumes and speeds, should be capable of accommodating bicycle travel with no special accommodation for bicycle travel.\nImplement enhanced bicycle facilities in key regional corridors.\nWithin the most urban parts of the Region, provide 393 miles of enhanced bicycle facilities that connect multiple communities, serve important regional destinations, and link segments of the off-street bicycle path system. Enhanced bicycle facilities—such as protected, buffered, and raised bike lanes and separate paths within a road’s right-of-way—are bicycle facilities on or along an arterial that go beyond the standard bike lane to improve safety, define bicycle space on roadways, and provide clear corridors for bicycle usage. Alternatively, if an enhanced bicycle facility is not feasible on a surface arterial street, a parallel local road could be optimized for bicycle traffic (known as a neighborhood greenway or bike boulevard).\nExpand the off-street bicycle path system to provide a well-connected regional network\nConstruct off-street bicycle paths between the cities and villages within the Region with a population of 5,000 or more. These paths would primarily be located in natural resource and utility corridors. Achieving the 731-mile off-street path system would improve bicycle connectivity in the Region by addressing gaps in the bicycle network. In some cases, on-street bicycle connections would be necessary to connect segments of the path system.\nExpand bike and scooter share program implementation\nExpand bike and scooter share programs, including those that incorporate adaptive bicycles and e-bikes, to make these options a viable mode of travel for short distance trips in the Region. These programs can provide important first-mile/last-mile connections, functioning as a feeder service to transit systems. VISION 2050 also recommends that local governments adopt and enforce regulations that address the potential safety concerns relating to this type of micromobility, including requiring that users obey traffic laws and that dockless bike and scooter parking is located in safe locations that do not impede the pedestrian clear zone.\nProvide pedestrian facilities that facilitate safe, efficient, and accessible pedestrian travel\nConstruct and maintain accessible sidewalks along streets and highways in areas of existing or planned urban development. Address gaps in the pedestrian network through neighborhood connections to regional off-street bicycle paths, transit, and major destinations. Design and construct sidewalks using widths and clearances appropriate for the levels of pedestrian and vehicular traffic in a given area. Provide terraces or buffered areas, where feasible, between sidewalks and streets for enhancing the pedestrian environment. Maximize pedestrian safety at street crossings by:\nImproving the timing of walk signal phases\nConstructing pedestrian median islands in wide, heavily traveled, or otherwise hazardous roadways\nConstructing curb extensions (“bulb-outs”) that narrow the crossing distance for pedestrians at intersections\nImplementing speed humps, raised crosswalks, and raised intersections to slow traffic and increase the visibility of pedestrians\nVISION 2050 emphasizes that all pedestrian facilities be designed and constructed in accordance with the Federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and its implementing regulations. The ADA requires all pedestrian facilities that access public and commercial buildings and services to accommodate people with disabilities.\nPrepare local community bicycle and pedestrian plans\nLocal units of government should prepare community bicycle and pedestrian plans to supplement the regional plan. The local plans should facilitate bicycle and pedestrian travel within neighborhoods and convenient travel between residential areas and nearby shopping centers, schools, parks, and transit stops. Communities should also consider preparing pedestrian safety action plans and developing Safe Routes to School programs.", "domain": "design"}

A properly designed mid-layer also transports water vapor that has wicked away from your baselayer, further keeping you dry and comfortable regardless of your activity level. A carefully selected mid-layer can also serve as an outer layer for wearing around town or when not on the mountain skiing.\nSelecting the appropriate mid layer is a very important decision when choosing your layering system. Versatility and warmth are the key factors to keep in mind. From the ultra light and warm PrimaLoft or Down material to the Fleece or Merino, at Rhythm we offer a broad spectrum of mid layers to match any situation.\nFleece mid layers\nThis is the most common form of a mid layer. Fleece is usually made of a type of polyester type of material, known as Polyethylene Terephthanlate. The fabric is generally lighter than wool and provides good insulation even when wet, absorbing little moisture and drying quickly.\nAn every day fleece or jumper will keep you warm, but the fashion based, often cheaper versions, might not be so effective in the breathability area, possibly resulting in excess moisture inside the garment which can actually make you feel colder. Also, the better quality brands use better fabrics allowing more warmth with less material.\nMerino mid layer (Wool)\nWool and particularly Merino Wool traditionally has several good properties: it has good insulation even when wet, absorbs moisture but does not feel wet, and it transfers, or wicks, moisture away from the body.\nA long sleeved sweater made with a thin layer of merino wool can be worn in combination with a fleece to give some extra warmth. A merino middle layer provides additional insulation and continues to transport moisture away from the base layer.\nDown mid layer\nDown has a very good weight to warmth ratio and can be packed down and to take very little room in your luggage. On the down side it is generally a little more expensive than the other options and dries a little slower.\nSynthetic Fiberfill such as Primaloft is used similar to down, but does not have as good a warmth to weight ratio. However, it is less expensive, provides good insulation even when wet, dries quickly, and absorbs very little moisture.\nWe stock a large range of goggles, catering for both kids and adults, as well as western and asian fit styles.", "domain": "design"}

The inspiration of EmNN is adopted from neurophysiological studies of the human brain behaviors under emotional circumstances. In this research, EmNN based models are designed and experimented for electrical load forecasting application. The numerical parameters are fine-tuned by applying genetic algorithm as an optimization tool. Two case studies are developed with different data sets for the training and testing of the proposed model. A hybrid input variable selection method is proposed for identifying and implementing the most appropriate input variables in the learning process. A couple of conventional training algorithms of ANN are employed for the same datasets and the outcomes are compared with EmNN model. The results of the proposed model show that the suggested technique performed better as compared to conventional ANN with respect to prediction accuracy and generalization.", "domain": "design"}

It has a restaurant, a Gym, a beautiful palace and… A Rose garden.\nIts origins date back to the early 1500s and the park shows the evolution it has taken over the years as it evolved around the monastery that was moved to the region by Isabella I, and the small palace as the park became the retreat place for royals.\nOne of the most amazing additions to the park is a recent garden that was brought to life as an initiative of the Mayor of Madrid, Carlos Prats, as he wanted to add a more elegant look to the Park. It was established by gardener Cecilio Rodríguez, in 1915. This is the magnificent rose garden the “Rosaleda.”.\nThe location previously was home to a small pond for ice skating during winter. After Rodríguez traveled to Paris for inspiration, he brought the model for the garden from the Parisian garden La Rosaleda de Bagatelle along with the first roses that started the Rosaleda. Even if the original rose garden was totally destroyed in the Civil War, it found its splendor again when more than 4,000 roses were brought and planted again in the year 1941.\nThe garden is meticulously maintained, even if it doesn’t respect the original strict order and design this is what adds charm to it. Each section of the garden is identified by origin and the roses are labeled to satisfy the curiosity of the mind. At the center of this roses garden, you find a small pond, bordered by two elegant white limestone fountains. The gentle sound of the flow of water creates a magical, serene, and calm atmosphere inviting the visitors to sit and meditate while being enchanted by the colors and scents of roses.\nLa Rosaleda Street, S/N Parque Del Oeste, 28008 Madrid Spain\nNeighbourhood: Casa de Campo\nHow to get there\nPrincipe Pío • 6 min walk\nVentura Rodríguez • 10 min walk\nBest time to visit: Spring and early summer\nAnother Rose Garden that you may want to visit in Madrid is the Parque del Oeste (Rosaleda del Parque del Oeste).

In this blog, I’m going to discuss the user interface choices provided in the UA Business Cloud and how various user communities can have a user interface relevant to how they will interact with the product. Also because of ubiquitous nature of products like Facebook, Twitter and other social media products, today’s user interface has to consider all of the potential interactions it might have with these products. This is especially true in an ERP centric product like the UA Business Cloud where Customers, Employees and even the Products a company sells can all have social media implications. Finally, one the benefits of any ERP product should be the metrics one can get to assist in monitoring the health of their business.\nLike most web based applications the UA Business Cloud uses the concept of a style sheet to determine how it renders on the user’s device or browser of choice. In fact, the core functionality behind the UA Business Cloud has no user interface at all but rather it has a set of meta-data the style sheet uses to render the user interface. Although this makes for a lot of complexity behind the scenes it provides the utmost freedom for user interface options for everything from the desktop browser to the hand held device.\nOut of the box, the UA Business Cloud uses the latest Microsoft user interface style we refer to as Tiles.\nEach Tile can lead to set of related functions or it can be a Tile related to specific function. Below is a screen shot of the Account’s Receivable page for a company called Preferred Services Inc.\nOn the left hand side are some metrics that may be useful for the Account’s Receivable user. Top Customers, Aged Receivable balance, Billing trends are all examples of metrics that are available.\nThe larger tiles represent what would typically be the most commonly used functions but don’t worry if these aren’t your most commonly used functions as this is all configurable.\nIf we click on the Customers Tile a listing of Customers is displayed.\nFrom here the user can sort the customer listing or search for the specific customer they want to look up.

This iconic bridge has not only connected the two sides of the Neretva River for centuries but has also become a symbol of resilience, having withstood the tests of time and conflict.\nConstruction and Design\nCommissioned by the Ottoman Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent and completed in 1566, the Old Bridge was designed by the renowned Ottoman architect Mimar Hayruddin. The bridge spans 28 meters in length and arches gracefully over the Neretva River, reaching a height of 24 meters. Its single stone arch, an engineering marvel of the time, is characterized by a humpback shape that adds to the bridge’s stability and aesthetic appeal.\nConstructed using local limestone known as tenelija, the Old Bridge reflects the Ottoman architectural style prevalent during the 16th century. The intricate carvings and ornamentation on the parapets showcase the skilled craftsmanship of the builders, making the bridge not just a functional structure but a work of art.\nThroughout its existence, the Old Bridge has played a central role in the life of Mostar’s residents. It served as a crucial artery for trade, connecting the markets on either side of the river. Additionally, the bridge became a popular venue for the traditional diving competition known as “mostari,” where local daredevils showcase their acrobatic skills by leaping into the Neretva River from the bridge’s apex.\nDestruction and Reconstruction\nTragically, the Old Bridge became a casualty of the Bosnian War in 1993 when it was targeted and destroyed by artillery fire. The international community recognized the cultural significance of the bridge, leading to extensive efforts to reconstruct it. The reconstruction project, completed in 2004, employed traditional building techniques and used stones retrieved from the riverbed, maintaining the authenticity of the original structure.\nSymbol of Reconciliation\nThe rebuilding of the Old Bridge not only physically restored a historic landmark but also became a symbolic gesture of reconciliation in post-war Mostar. The bridge stands as a tangible reminder of the city’s ability to overcome the scars of conflict and rebuild its cultural heritage.\nThe Old Bridge in Mostar remains an exceptional example of Ottoman bridge engineering and a symbol of resilience and cultural identity. Its humpback arch and historical significance make it a must-see destination for tourists and a source of pride for the people of Mostar, embodying the spirit of endurance and unity.", "domain": "design"}

Not only must encoders be able to thrive in harsh environments, but they should also feature an energy-harvesting electronic design that enables them to operate reliably—even in the event of a power failure.\nAn example of an encoder that fits this bill is our new Sendix M36. Let’s take a look at how its combination of electrical and mechanical features suits the demanding world of mobile equipment:\nRugged Bearing Construction Withstands Heavy-Duty Applications\nDespite its compact, 36-mm size, the Sendix M36 multiturn encoder is sturdily constructed for tough environments. Its proprietary Safety-Lock™ design includes interlocked bearings, strengthened outer bearings and large bearing size relative to the size of the encoder. Thanks to these bearings and flexible mounting technology, this encoder can also tolerate large shaft loads and installation errors resulting from temperature expansion or vibration—making it a versatile choice for a wide range of heavy equipment motors.\nIn addition, the encoder’s high IP66, IP67 or IP69k protection levels ensure reliable outdoor operation even in the presence of dust or condensation. The Sendix M36 also resists high heat, which—when combined with high rotational speeds—makes it suitable for demanding, high-temperature environments up to 85°C.\nEnergy-Harvesting Tech Improves Encoder Reliability\nNot only is the Sendix M36 ruggedly constructed; it is also efficient. For one, it integrates our unique Energy Harvesting Technology, which ensures the absolute position of the encoder will be stored even in the event of a power failure. The rotating magnetic field generates energy—eliminating the need for gears and batteries. In addition to enhancing the encoder’s compactness, longevity and reliability in the field, this energy-harvesting design is more cost-effective. Having less components also improves its magnetic insensitivity.\nM36 encoders are available in variants that support various electrical interfaces, including programmable analog for greater versatility. Also in development for this series is a version that supports J1939, which is rapidly gaining traction in the transportation sector and enables real-time, closed-loop control functions between vehicle components in off-highway equipment.\nTo learn more about the Sendix M36 family of multiturn encoders, visit our product page.", "domain": "design"}

This partnership, celebrating six decades of phenomenal opera performances, created a unique artisan gin named Suonare, Italian for 'to play'.\nCrafted with meticulous attention to detail, Suonare is a symphony of carefully selected botanicals inspired by operas in the Scottish Opera's 60th Season. The gin features globally sourced ingredients, including oranges from Seville, lavender from France, bergamot from Calabria in Italy, pink peppercorn from South America, and nettles from the Scottish Borders. Each botanical represents the international repertoire of Scottish Opera's landmark season, encompassing pieces from Spain, South America, Italy, and France.\nWhen approached by Scottish Opera to create a blend that would honour their remarkable 60-year history, we were immediately captivated by the idea. As a local craft distillery, we saw a unique opportunity to mirror the opera's dedication to artistry, tradition, and innovation. This partnership also exemplifies our mutual commitment to local communities, a cornerstone of our business philosophy.\nThe design of Suonare's bottle is as innovative and thoughtful as the gin itself. The label, adorned with die-cut holes, doubles as a music sheet for 'Un bel di' from Puccini's Madama Butterfly. This opera holds a special place in the Scottish Opera's history as it was first performed in its inaugural Season in 1962. This unique feature allows gin enthusiasts to savour a fine spirit and appreciate a piece of musical history, making Suonare the perfect Christmas gift or collector's item.\nOur journey with Scottish Opera began with several tastings, where we provided a range of sample gins, each connecting botanicals with significant opera locations. After many sessions, we refined the gin to a perfect blend that could be described as a traditional London Dry Gin with a refreshing twist of citrus and a hint of spice.\nIn collaboration with the award-winning Glasgow-based creative design agency, Tangent, we ensured the Suonare bottle is as environmentally conscious as it is visually stunning. The label is made from FSC approved paper, and the cap has been hand-dipped in gold wax, eliminating the need for plastic.\nWe are incredibly proud of this collaboration with Scottish Opera and the creation of Suonare. Every bottle captures our mutual respect for tradition, innovation, and community. As co-founder Stuart McVicar aptly said, \"We wanted to ensure we could make a product which would reflect this mix of tradition and innovation.\"\nAs we toast to Scottish Opera's impressive 60-year history, we invite you to join the celebration by experiencing Suonare. Whether you choose to raise a glass or keep this unique bottle as a memento, we hope it brings you as much joy as it brought us in its creation. Here's to many more years of creativity, craftsmanship, and community!", "domain": "design"}

This was then transferred to new blue fabric, as near as possible to the original style.\nThe applique work was then attached to the new backing using a variety of techniques including stitching and gluing. The final phase of restoration was to line and weight the banner, and re attach the braid that had been salvaged. New ribbon (the original had perished) was also attached, and once hung, new gold rope was added.\nThe banner was placed in church on display for the first time since Christ Church had closed in 1974.\nThe latest addition is a choir banner, for processional use and for when the choir sing outside the church building.

The sleek futuristic design of the satellite, resting lifelessly in car sized crater, recalls a modern day Icarus whose faith in technology lead to hubris and his imminent demise as he fell back to earth. Sputnik Returned 2 has a simple design, both streamlined and reflective, alluding to the space race of the 1950s. Today this design appears as a wonderfully crude relic of the period, a potential unmanned doomsday weapon mirroring the excesses of the cold war while also recalling the proto-modernist sculptures of Brancusi.\nSputnik plummeted into the earth’s atmosphere exactly four months after its launch, where it was incinerated - any individual with a passing knowledge of the atmosphere is aware that it would be impossible for a satellite remain intact upon re-entry. However, the narrative content of Sputnik Returned 2 asks the viewer to suspend their disbelief and engage in the metaphor presented by the object.\nSally Cole, “Art in the Open moves into every nook and cranny of Charlottetown,” The Guardian, August 26, 2017.\nKevin Yarr, “Art in the impound: Sculpture almost towed,” CBC News, August 21, 2017.", "domain": "design"}

Below, we go over some of the most well-known characteristics of Islamic art.\nIslamic art has a distinctive style in many areas. Islamic artists frequently used a variety of elaborate designs and patterns rather than using animals or people in their designs. The Islamic religion had a direct impact on the art through this practise. Artists believed that depicting depictions of people and animals could lead to idolatry—the worship of objects other than Allah.\nArabesque is a style that Islamic artists frequently employ. Arabesque makes use of elaborate floral and leaf designs. These designs were frequently used in fabrics, books with decorations, stone reliefs on buildings, and wooden carvings.\nIslamic designers often included beautiful writing known as “calligraphy” and geometric patterns known as “tessellation” into their creations.\nCeramics was a significant aspect of Islamic art. Ceramic glazes and styles by early Islamic painters range widely. While some developed their own distinctive techniques for glazing ceramics, others were influenced by Chinese porcelain. Ceramic tiles were also used by Islamic artisans to create stunning works of art in addition to lovely ceramics. These tiles were occasionally used to decorate religious buildings’ outside walls or the whole thing with vibrant patterns and designs.\nThe carpet was one of the most useful examples of Islamic art. Although carpets were frequently used as wall hangings, prayer mats, floor coverings, and cushions, they were also stunning works of art. These carpets frequently featured arabesque or colourful geometric repeat patterns. They developed into a significant export from the Arab realm to other continents, particularly Europe.\nComplex carvings were another well-liked kind of art. They incorporated the same geometric and arabesque designs found in other Islamic art. Wood was frequently used for carving, although other materials like ivory, stone, and plaster were also used. They were used to adorn the ceiling, doors, and wall panels of significant buildings like mosques. Stands for the Quran, the holy book of Islam, were frequently works of art made of wood.\n“Miniature painting” was the most widely used style of painting in the early Islamic world. These miniature paintings were included in decorative books known as “illuminated manuscripts.” These paintings stood apart from other works of Islamic art because they frequently featured images of both people and animals. This was as a result of the scenes being taken from the book’s stories.\nIn Islamic art, calligraphy—or decorative writing—was quite common. Often, calligraphy was used to make designs. The writing would frequently be a religious proverb or verse from the Quran. It was common to see calligraphy blended with arabesque and geometric motifs.\nInteresting Information about Islamic Golden Age Art\nBattle-related weapons were occasionally adorned with calligraphy or designs.\nGlass and metal were other media used by Islamic painters.\nAs the Islamic kingdom grew, the fashion and patterns utilised in Islamic art were widely adopted.\nIn mosques, the minbar, which serves as the leader of the prayers, is frequently adorned with intricate carvings.", "domain": "design"}

The pod elements are loosely attached, creating sounds when worn.\nJanuary 30th, 2008\nI am always interested in reading comic books and watching movies. The similarity of them is that they both consist of frames. Each frame can be seen as a fragment of the movie. By connecting all the fragments together, the story has unfolded. I always have a picture in my mind after seeing a movie. I remember the silhouettes of children riding bicycles across the sky with ET in the basket. I also remember “Don” Vito Corleone sitting in a chair with a cat in his hand and listening to people’s requests in God Father. These pictures in my mind provide me memories of the stories and the movie going experiences.\nI am also drawn to the daily objects that have been used by people. Usage presents the history of the object as well as the trademark of the people who used it. I have always liked a teapot that belongs to my father. It has a lotus root shape body with a vine like handle and pourer. There are a couple of lotus seeds on the lid that make jingling sounds while pouring the tea. Every time I see this teapot it reminds me of the life style and culture I am living in. With this teapot also come memories of teatime with my family. By connecting all the experiences, I have my own story with the teapot.\nI think of my jewelry as fragments, carrying stories by using metaphor in my design, expressing the desire, wit or sensuality. I also see it as small sculptures, documenting the time and the emotion in which I live. Each piece, in a technical way, is an exploration of line and pattern; creating structure, form and motion. It also presents the imagination of the mind as well as the story and history of the making process. The work is not meant to isolate specific meanings, rather suggest a moment of thought where stillness, beauty and illumination can peacefully coexist. I believe that, while Art allows artists to understand themselves better, it also improves communication between human beings and can express a concern and love for society.", "domain": "design"}

But we're not really interested in 'passive' sensors like temperature sensors, light sensors or soil moisture sensors. We're looking for ways to interact with the pi, especially for game-playing, and when possible in unexpected ways, like for example the stick from the forest controlling a video game.\nOne of the original ideas was to have one or more ultrasound distance sensors, perhaps hidden or disguised in some way, so that just by holding one's hand in the air in particular positions makes the pi do something, perhaps making a kind of theremin or whack-a-mole game.\nHowever, these ultrasound sensors work by necessity in a pulsed mode, so the control cannot be continuous. Plus the volume which can be covered by these little transmitters is very restricted, and the measurement is only one-dimensional. So this idea was dropped for a while, until I found out about the Pimoroni skywriter \"3D Gesture Sensor\".\nSo what is it? It's just a flat, black rectangle which, through some kind of electric field, can tell what's in the space above it. If you hold your finger above the rectangle, this sensor outputs the (x, y, z) coordinates of where your finger is in that space, and also reacts to gestures like swipes and taps. One attractive feature is that the sensor is really thin and so could be easily hidden, especially if you cover it with a sheet of something non-conductive. So you've then got a \"magic space\" in 3D which does stuff even without you touching anything.\nIt comes in two different sizes, firstly the \"HAT\" version which fits directly on top of the pi (but only if the pi is a version B+ or 2), and secondly an \"XL\" version which as the name suggests is larger. I've got a Raspberry pi version 1B, so mine doesn't support the \"HAT\" interface anyway, and so I got the XL so that I've got a bigger volume in which to play.\nAs with the accelerometer, the pi communicates with this sensor using I2C, so that means as well as power, it uses the SDA and SCL pins of the Pi. Plus it uses another two GPIO pins for \"TRFR\" and \"RESET\". So that's 6 connections in all. For the \"HAT\" version of the skywriter, these connections are done for you just by putting the board on top of the pi, but for the XL version there's a little bit of soldering to be done.\nThe board just has 6 holes for the connections, to which you can choose to solder the included 6-pin header rail. But then you'd have headers sticking out vertically from the board, and then plugs attached to the top of those, and then wires coming out the top of those, which for me would intrude too much into the invisible magic space I'm trying to create. So I decided to take some flat ribbon cable and solder this directly onto the holes, meaning that everything stays flat and there is nothing to accidentally snag with your finger gestures.\nThe next question is, which side is up? That is, on which side of the board does the detection happen? The board doesn't give any clues, and there aren't any instructions included either. But some experimentation showed that the sensor side is the mostly black side with the chip on it, not the side with the large \"Skywriter\" logo and the \"Tech specs\". Which is a little odd, because most of the pictures one sees of the \"HAT\" version show that the sensor side for that one has a large \"Skywriter\" logo and no chip.\nIn any case, we need to connect the pins, and most of them are obvious. The pi's 3V3 goes to the sensor's VCC. The pi's 0V goes to the sensor's GND. SDA goes to SDA, and SCL goes to SCL. The only difficulty is with TRFR and RESET. But thanks to the ever-excellent MagPi, we find out that TRFR goes to pin 13, and RESET goes to pin 11. And that's the same also for the model 1B.\nBecause we're again using I2C for the communication with the pi, this sensor also needs the pi to be set up to enable I2C. But because we've already done this for the accelerometer, it's already done. If you haven't already done this, then you'd need to follow the instructions on the accelerometer page to set things up properly.\nNow we just need some software on the pi to operate the sensor, and fortunately there is a bunch of python programs provided by Pimoroni at github.com/pimoroni/skywriter-hat.\nFor example, just run\npython3 test.py to see the (x, y, z) coordinates printed on the screen. It looks like it's doing nothing (or taking ages to start) but actually it's just waiting for your finger. Put your finger over the sensor, and it'll scroll the coordinates (all x,y,z scaled from 0.0 to 1.0) up the terminal. Swipe quickly over the whole sensor and it'll register a \"swipe\" gesture with the direction (eg east -> west). Draw horizontal circles in the air over the sensor and it'll register an \"airwheel\" gesture with a value which is increased or decreased depending on the direction of the circle.\nSo now it's tested and working, and it's time to try out our own ideas.", "domain": "design"}

That’s because What the Shirt? on the Old Capitol Plaza has a new line in their business of “witticisms you can wear” — Coloring to a Tee Parties.

Here’s how it worked for us: we wanted our T-shirts to have the same design, so the kids looked through all of the selections to pick a fish-themed shirt. Every person then colored in their fish the way they wanted, using the markers provided.\nConnor Alexander, the proprietor at What the Shirt?, designed the team name on his trusty computer — and used the same lettering to print out personalized names for the back of the shirts, so that the kids could color those in as well. It took less than 15 minutes for each T-shirt to be imprinted with the design, right before our eyes.\nWant to give it a try for the holiday season?

Unfortunately there are also some covers that are also just atrocious but at least manage to catch the eye by this fact.\nDeafheaven – Sunbather\nThough I have yet to listen to this album I have seen this cover countless times and it has never failed to catch my eye with its minimalist style.\nAustra – Olympia\nFrom stark contrast between singer Katie Stelmanis and the blue background and the beauty and intensity of the colours on the cover, this album stands out and presents itself as a real work of art that could stand alone without its musical context.\nDeap Vally – Sistrionix\nFrom the mixing colours of hair and interesting use of motion blurring I keep stopping when I see this cover. It just has a cool aesthetic to it that I love.\nJanelle Monáe – The Electric Lady\nWhile more luxurious, this cover has a lot going on. From the eyecandy of its title’s font to the multiple mixings of black and white lines, and even the multiple glossy surfaces. It has enough to catch your eye now matter what your tastes.\nThe Flaming Lips – The Terror\nNo matter what the music, The Flaming Lips have a knack at picking good album covers. The crazy range of neon colours make this cover a unique one and it’s approaching explosion look makes it even more intriguing.\nCity and Colour – The Hurry And The Harm\nSimple two sided photo, the addition of some interesting geometric shapes make the bright side seem even bolder.\nVampire Weekend – Modern Vampires Of The City\nFont has been amazing in covers recently, the font of Vampire Weekend’s new album title really works with the band’s aesthetic and just looks great. The black and white New York skyline covered in clouds also echo’s the feel the band takes with this album, mixing high and urban sounds. All capped with their Wes Anderson-like band font it’s a passable follow-up to the iconic look of their Contra cover.\nThe Joy Formidable – Wolf’s Law\nMore painting than anything else, this cover not only echos the theme of the album but is just a great painting that more than Austra’s cover could be a modern classic without the band’s name on it.\nChvrches – The Bones Of What You Believe\nBold red and blue and a great example of how simple it is to create an interesting image by mixing simple shapes. Chvrches’ album cover complements the sound of the album and is a great minimalist piece of art.\n5. The Strokes – Comedown Machine\nWhile some people may think this cover a cop out, I love the old school aesthetic of this cover. Not only featuring many old features like large brand presence and album features, it does the cool service of giving the album’s run time. Just a cool cover altogether.\n4. Arctic Monkeys – AM\nReminiscent of Joy Division’s Unknown Pleasures album cover, the new Arctic Monkey’s cover, simply features a wave, with the band’s initials (and album name) very naturally integrated into it. Probably the intent it stands to use AM and the wave art to pay homage to radio. A really clever looking album cover\n3. Franz Ferdinand – Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action\nA kooky cover for a kooky band. I’ve love the simple arrow aesthetic of this cover and it’s strange look just grabs me.\n2. Queens Of The Stone Age – …Like Clockwork\nAs I’ve mentioned before, the bold red backing, great new band logo and amazing painting by artist Boneface made me enjoy the new Queens’ album even more. A great example of great art and great music coming together to complement each other. The Dracula theme is great and not only works with the song “Vampyres Of Time And Memory” but works with the dark trancy vibe of the album overall.\n1. Daft Punk – Random Access Memories\nThe font, the shine, the contrast and split, this cover does it all. It’s gleam and font matches the shiny disco feel of the album. The black working with the black and white aesthetic of disco as well as its classy feel. The split down the middle beautifully blends the band’s two iconic helmets now in gold and silver, to match the fancy feel. All working together to make the most if not only really iconic album cover of the year that will stand the test of time.\nTyler The Creator – Wolf\nWhile possibly one of the funniest covers of the year, this cover looks god awful. I really don’t even know what to say. Even if that was the intention it just looks painfully tacky.\nThe Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Mosquito\nA great example of why cgi 3D images just don’t really work as album covers. The new YYY’s cover is just a mess, from the bad looking baby, weirdly placed jar and atrocious font within the 3d aesthetic. The mosquito itself is the only part of this image that looks okay but the whole thing is really just looks amateur and bad. For an established punk band this is just an atrocious choice, everyone I’ve talked about this album with can’t help but say “man that cover is bad.”\nAny album covers you thought looked better or better yet worse? Let me know and if they really intrigue or sadden me I’ll post them.", "domain": "design"}

But the popularity of bodysuits and the explosion of stylish, sustainable swimsuit brands over the last few years has led swim aficionados to another style that's just as sexy as the string bikini: The low-back swimsuit, a.k.a. the backless swimsuit, which is often a one-piece that plunges down to (or past) the base of the wearer's spine while providing full coverage in the front.\nChantal Levesque, founder and designer of SHAN Swimwear, says that these swimsuits became popular as a result of two crucial late 20th-century fashion changes: greater accessibility of stretch fabric, and greater social acceptance of women showing more skin. And while bikinis exploded in popularity, women who didn't feel comfortable baring their midriffs often opted for one-pieces.\n\"This is where low-back swimsuits became a popular choice for a lot of women,\" Levesque explains. \"This type of one-piece swimsuit offers the full front coverage some women are looking for, but at the same time creates the illusion of a two-piece thanks to its low back cut.\"\nBut Natasha Tonić, founder of her own eponymous swimwear brand, points to a 1976 photo of Farrah Fawcett as the moment that truly catapulted the low-back swimsuit into fashion fame. While in some ways the suit resembled swimsuits from the turn of the century—\"in 1915, Jantzen, a small knittery in Portland, made low back swimsuits out of wool,\" Tonić reminds us—the relaxed beach regulations of the 1970s allowed for everyday women to finally enjoy low-back swimsuits in public without reproach. And based on how popular these pieces remain summer after summer, the fashion world has never looked back.\n\"Open-back swimsuits are popular because they reveal more skin without necessarily being over the top,\" says Tonić. \"Women can feel seductive without showing so much of their body. It leaves things to the imagination, which is sometimes the sexiest thing anyway.\"\nBelow, the best low-back swimsuits money can buy, along with tips and tricks on how to buy and wear them. Let your imagination run wild.\nWhen to Wear a Low-Back Swimsuit\nBetween swimming, playing beach games or sports, and simply lounging on the beach, there are a variety of activities you may be getting up to while donning your favorite swimsuit. This begs the question of whether your low-back swimsuit is up to the task for each of these, or whether you're better off opting for another, less risky style.\n\"In my opinion, low-back swimsuits are best suited for casual sunbathing,\" advises Tonić. \"They are also great for that beach bar or restaurant look where you don’t want to feel underdressed while standing among people or eating food.\" Indeed, she says that low-back swimsuits can lend your beach bar fit a \"subtle sexy movie star look.\"\nValentina Suescun, designer at ONEONE Swim, agrees, adding, \"Low back swimsuits may not be the best choice for activities that require a lot of movement, such as water sports or beach volleyball, as they may not provide enough support.\"\nBut if you're absolutely determined to wear your low-back swimsuit to your beach volleyball tournament, or if you want a suit that's ready for anything, there are a few tips you can keep in mind when picking your suit.\n\"The lower the cut is in the back, the less support it gives to the front,\" Levesque reminds us. Furthermore, she says that low-back swimsuits with underwire or strings that tie in the back can provide greater support when you're running or swimming, and might be the most comfortable swimsuits for those with large busts.\nWhat to Look For in a Low Back Swimsuit\nNow that you know when to wear a low-back swimsuit, you may be wondering what to look for in a high-quality piece that feels comfortable and lasts season after season. After all, it's better to invest in a luxurious piece that you love and that you know will last than to buy a piece that disintegrates after just a few wears (trust me, I've been there).\n\"The fabric should be durable and not so thin that it wears out over time,\" agrees Tonić, who points in particular to the hemp-based, sustainably produced fabric of her brand's swimsuits. Levesque also points to the importance of quality, explaining, \"A high-quality Lycra fabric will always give a better fit, without exception. A good Lycra fabric will also extend the durability of the swimsuit.\"\nIn terms of fit, Tonić says, \"A high quality low back swimsuit should have a perfect fit where the straps look as if they can slip off anytime to the sides and reveal a little bit more—yet they never do.\" In other words, the straps should sit securely on your shoulders, but they shouldn't be cutting into your skin.\nBut no matter how high-quality your swimsuit is, its longevity is also determined by how well you take care of. \"It is always better to just rinse after swimming with water and leave inside out to dry,\" warns Tonić. \"This is better for our environment and the longevity of any swimsuit.\"\nThe Best Low-Back Swimsuits\n- Best Low-Back Swimsuit for Curves: Soma Ruffled One-Piece Swimsuit\n- Best Low-Back Swimsuit for Long Torsos: Andie Swim The Tulum\n- Best Sexy Low-Back Swimsuit: Ayra Swim The Hype Cheeky One-Piece Swimsuit\n- Best Modest Low-Back Swimsuit: Inez Valentine Peyton One-Piece\n- Best Low-Back Swimsuit for Sport: Adidas Originals Trefoil Swim Suit\n- Best Low-Back Swimsuit Overall: Natasha Tonić Rebel - Red\nBest Athletic Low-Back Swimsuit\nYou won't be hard to spot in this Adidas seafoam green one-piece, which is made for both sleek aesthetics and high-octane athletic performance. And while it boasts a sexy low back, it retains a sensible high cut in the front so you can swim, dive, run, and jump without worrying about whether you're covered. Form-fitting and flexible, reviewers rave that it's true to fit. Plus, it's machine washable—a godsend for the low-maintenance (or, admittedly, lazy) swimmers among us.\nCustomer Review: \"The color is even better in person!\" -Amazon\nBest Vegan Low-Back Swimsuit\n\"This style is one of our most popular ones,\" says Levesque of this unlined one-piece, which is made entirely of vegan suede. Of its popularity among women of all sizes, she explains, \"It has a low front and back cut, but gives a good support for both smaller or larger busts, because of the large straps that maintain the breast in place.\" A classic, trend-transcending silhouette, the suit comes in both tan and black.\nBest Adjustable Low-Back Swimsuit\nThis one-piece swimsuit from Bleu Rod strikes the rare balance of full coverage, a plunging neckline, and maximum bust support. The lace-up neckline is completely adjustable, so you can show off or cover as much as you'd like, and the piece also features matching lace detailing on the lower back. Plus, it comes with removable soft cups and is made from a soft, flexible blend of nylon and spandex for your most comfortable swim experience yet.\nBest Patterned Low-Back Swimsuit\nSuescun highly recommends this one-piece from her swim brand, ONEONE. In particular, she says she loves its unique silhouette, calling it \"very sexy and trendy\"—especially when coupled with its unique, vibrant pattern of tiny illustrations. She adds that \" the fit is comfortable and flattering\" as well, with its cheeky bottom coverage, high leg cut, and adjustable back and shoulder straps. It's also eco printed, meaning that the colors and designs on the suit are printed using dyes made from organic materials (like seeds, bark, and flowers).\nBest Cutout Low-Back Swimsuit\nNatasha Tonić's luxury swimwear brand specializes in making pieces from hemp-based fabric that reduces microfiber pollution when you wear it in the ocean. Plus, it's UV resistant and anti-microbial, with elastin in its back and straps for extra bust support. \"My customers’ favorite is also mine,\" Tonić says of this piece.\"It's more closed in the front and on the bottom. It is designed to be a combination of 20’s style swimsuits but with the open back of the ’70s.\"\nBest Longwear Low-Back Swimsuit\nThe concept behind all of Hermoza's pieces is that they can be worn both as bathing suits and as bodysuits when you're transitioning from the beach or pool to lunch, dinner, or drinks. I especially love the soft, pastel blue color of this piece and the retro white tie straps on each shoulder. It provides full coverage to the chest and bottom, has a scoop neck, and is fully lined with soft, comfortable fabric that the brand boasts is \"silky to the touch.\"\nCustomer Review: \"I normally don't wear colors this vibrant, but there was something about this suit that drew me in. Maybe it was the cute little bows that paired with the sportier color blocked tones. Whatever it was, I am SO glad I got this. It fits incredibly well and offers light compression so that I feel supported and confident. The construction is 10/10 - top notch. I also love the fact that the cups are built in so I don't have to worry about them shifting or getting folded up in the wash. I've worn this as a bodysuit and get a ton of compliments! Looks super cute with some light wash denim shorts.\" -Hermoza\nBest Sustainable Low-Back Swimsuit\nThis belted one-piece boasts a backless cut without showing too much skin, striking the perfect balance between being flattering and family reunion-appropriate. It also comes in four neutral colorways, including this terra cotta-like shade of deep orange. The brand, Kōraru, also uses sustainable materials and packaging for all of its suits, and donates five dollars from every purchase of a set or one piece toward the Coral Reef Alliance. A swimsuit that feels good on physical and ethical levels? Don't mind if I do.\nBest Baywatch-Inspired Low-Back Swimsuit\nTonić says that this bright red bathing suit is another one of her absolute favorites—and, being that this is a bestseller, this seems to be the case for her customers as well. This bestseller is designed to have extra coverage on top so that you can tan, swim, run, and dive comfortably. Furthermore, Tonić says that this piece \"has a more plunging neckline and high rise bottom that reveals more skin and resembles more of a 90’s Baywatch, Pamela Anderson look.\"\nBest Lacy Low-Back Swimsuit\nI love the lace-like detailing on this daring one-piece, which is perfect for those looking to flaunt what they’ve got. The suit’s fabric also mimics the look and feel of leather, ensuring that you'll stand out wherever you are and also giving leather lovers (like me) an opportunity to bring their favorite style into summer. Founder Gigi and her mother, Tina, also ensured that all of the brand's pieces, including this one, don't sacrifice practicality for style—the suit is made with swimming, surfing, and splashing in mind, so you can trust that it won’t budge while you have it on.\nBest Simple Low-Back Swimsuit\nI love Boteh's sultry style, which balances minimalism with a Bohemian, Meditteranean sensibility. The brand's pieces are also practical—this white jacquard low-back bathing suit is double-lined (an extra important detail for a white suit), has easily adjustable straps, and is comfortable enough to be worn all day long without discomfort, itching, or chafing. Plus, the brand champions slow fashion and a \"fewer, better\" ethos, so you can trust that your Boteh pieces will last you for many summers to come.\nBest Size-Inclusive Low-Back Swimsuit\nWoman- and AAPI- founded brand Dia is a size-inclusive apparel company intent on creating stylish pieces for women of any size. In fact, founder Nadia Boujarwah was inspired to start the brand because she had long been frustrated at the lack of style options for people sizes 12 and up. This adjustable, sailor-inspired one-piece is an excellent example of how Dia pushes back against this industry norm, bringing sexy designs and unique, innovative styles to curvy women at reasonable price points.\nBest Affordable Low-Back Swimsuit\nWith its svelte silhouette and the lace-up straps on its front and back, this affordable swimsuit reminds me of lingerie in all the best ways. But never fear: While it has both a low back and plunging neckline, the suit also has a full coverage bottom that prevents you from feeling too exposed, and its cups are completely removable. Plus, it's made from sun-blocking fabric with a rating of UPF 50+, meaning that the suit itself works to protect your skin from harmful UV rays.\nCustomer Review: \"Absolute perfect fit! This is my first one-piece bathing suit and it makes me feel amazing.\" -Target\nBest Customizable Low-Back Swimsuit\nAndie Swim founder Melanie Travis has spoken with Marie Claire about how her brand fights the male gaze that's so prevalent in the swim industry by creating practical, comfortably pieces that make women look and feel good—sans any objectification through the brand's marketing. The LGBTQ+-owned brand also makes their swimwear super customizable: In addition to coming in six distinct colorways, you can also choose a ribbed or smooth feel for this swimsuit, and you can have it adjusted for a classic or long torso fit.\nCustomer Review: \"This suit is great for a trans+ person. Slimming in the right areas (decreases appearance of width of shoulders, slimming through the torso), the long torso option made ALL the difference in making the fit. It's nearly impossible to find fitting options from a mainstream brand. 5/5\" -Andie Swim\nBest Retro Low-Back Swimsuit\nLatinx-owned brand Ayra Swim hand-cuts and sews all of its pieces ethically in Los Angeles, and each suit is made from UV-protective fabric that protects your skin while you lay on the beach or by the pool. This piece in particular (which comes in a whopping seven colors!) is made from nylon and spandex, is fully double-lined, and was designed as an ode to the '80s with its bright colors, high leg, and deep V neck. Think: the summer version of leg warmers.\nBest Timeless Low-Back Swimsuit\nSanctuary Clothing was founded by husband and wife team Ken and Deb Polanco, who wanted to create a womanswear collection that combined the aesthetics of both the East and West coasts for an effortless yet polished overall style. This bathing suit epitomizes that ethos, marrying a sexy low-back cut and lace-up detail with a timeless silhouette and flattering high-leg cut. Plus, it's made from recycled polyester composed from bottles and other plastic waste, and it's produced using means that reduce waste and cut energy use by 59 percent (compared to the energy required to work with virgin polyester).\nCustomer Review: \"This is the best one-piece black swimsuit you will ever find—anywhere. I struggle to find a one-piece that doesn't make you look like an old lady and still stays put and is not too revealing; this suit is perfection.\" -Sanctuary Clothing\nBest Eye-Catching Low-Back Swimsuit\nTake some inspiration from the James Bond Goldfinger movie in this gold getup, which will undoubtedly have all eyes on you. Its metallic nylon-spandex fabric is designed not only to glitter in the sun, but it’s also flexible and made to slip on and off with ease. Personally, I also love its retro high cut and its risqué fit along the sides. Reviewers warn, though, that the piece runs small and that it may be revealing for wearers with large chests.\nCustomer Review: \"Fits so well! Got in in an XS for vacation, def recommend.\" -Revolve\nBest Low-Back Swimsuit with a Plunging Neckline\nThe plunging neckline and ultra low-back makes this striking swimsuit flattering on every body type, particularly since it's built to cinch subtly at the waist. Wear this halter one-piece beyond the beach by adding a mini skirt and wrap sandals for a night out on the town. It comes in black, brown, beige, and a striking ocean blue shade, and it's made from an ultra-soft nylon/spandex mix. I own the suit myself, and can attest that it feels buttery to the touch.\nBest Elevated Low-Back One Swimsuit\nThis simple, sleek low-back one-piece has a high neck and low back, resulting in an elevated feel (quiet luxury, anyone?). The off-white color is also bound to match with all your summer cover-ups—or with a pair of jeans or shorts when worn as a bodysuit—which makes it the perfect go-to piece when you're trying to pack light. It's also double-lined and seamless for maximum comfort and an overall smooth look, and is made entirely from recycled and regenerated nylon and spandex.\nBest Belted Low-Back Swimsuit\nAAPI-owned brand 5B makes this suit in two different, highly inventive styles: One in structured, belted black and white, and the other a whimsical mix of pink and tan. While I love both, I'm particularly fond of the first, with its leg-elongating high cut and the slimming effect of its black colorway and white cinch belt. And the best part? The suit is made of the light, breathable, sustainably produced fabric Econyl, which is made to move with your body and last you year after year.\nBest Ruffled Low-Back Swimsuit\nLean into the romantic fashion trend sweeping streets and runways alike by donning this piece on vacation this summer. Its ruffled shoulders are fun and flattering, and they soften the effect of the piece's deep neckline. And because this bathing suit is relatively modest, you can lounge about without feeling self-conscious at family-centric beaches, pools, and resorts. It's also made from 78 percent recycled material and includes built-in soft cups for extra coverage.\nCustomer Review: \"Love love love all of their suits but this one takes the cake. It’s very classy, modest but yet feminine for the mom of five kids!\" -Summersalt\nBest Romantic Low-Back Swimsuit\nJuillet is one of my all-time favorite swim brands, and this low-back one-piece perfectly demonstrates why. The brand's stock is rife with flattering romantic pieces that are perfect for this summer's ultra-feminine trend. In particular, I love the way the burnt orange flowers and tiny green leaves look against the off-white suit. The color scheme results in an overall antique effect, which beautifully offsets the plunging cut and daring cheeky backside of the suit. Plus, if you act quickly, you can buy this piece for over $100 off its normal retail price.\nBest Trendy Low-Back Bathing Suit\nFrankies Bikinis is one of the busiest swimwear brands around, counting the likes of Naomi Osaka, Sofia Richie, Kendall Jenner, and Gigi Hadid among its most famous fans. This particular swimsuit is one of the many pieces from the brand's partnership with Sydney Sweeney, and I'm absolutely obsessed. It's nylon and spandex fabric is dyed a deep, sultry blue and embellished with intricate black lace along the neckline. Meanwhile, the back of the suit dips down the middle of the wearer's spine and has cheeky coverage along the bottom.\nBest Low-Back Swimsuit for Diving\nAnother athletic option for the swimmers among us, this Nike low-back swimsuit is made from recycled materials using production methods that are aimed at reducing carbon emissions by at least 30 percent. The suit also comes in three flattering colors, including coral, black, and light blue, and it has soft removable cups for optimal bust support. Reviewers also appreciate how many sizes the suit comes in (XS to 2XL) and how true to fit it is.\nCustomer Review: \"I love the swim suit! It fits good, quality material is great, and its simplicity works just great for me!\" -Nike\nBest Low-Back Bathing Suit for Curves\nCan you tell that ruffles are in this summer? This bathing suit from Soma comes in both red and black, is universally flattering, and is a perfect elevated basic to bring on any vacation or to grab for an impromptu swim. It also features a sultry lace-up neckline, which plunges to the base of the bust but can be adjusted to reveal as much (or as little) as you want. Multiple reviewers also note that it's especially flattering and comfortable for fuller figures. To make matters even better, the suit is currently 30 percent off.\nCustomer Review: \"Finally, for the first time in my life, a suit that doesn’t dig into my shoulders. I have a very long torso even though I’m only 5’8”. It’s so pretty and feminine without revealing too much.\" -Soma\nMeet the Experts\nNatasha Tonić is a swimwear designer of Serbian and Croatian descent with advanced education in molecular biology, art, business, and fashion marketing.

As a graduate of design, I believe that every child should be exposed to arts and design at an early age. So I have decided to add Easy DIY Art Project with Kids section to my blog and this handmade card is the first post in that section.\nArts help improve concentration, creativity, team work, motor skills, motivation and even academic performance.\nAlso, creating an art project will help us spend time with them. And this is one reason I have decided to take out some time each week to create some art project with my son. However, small the project, it will help us bond more. With him growing more independent each day, I think we need more of these concentrated spaces of time. Also, it would help make the iPad less attractive and real life more fun.\nYou don’t have to be artist or designer to sign up for these art projects. You just need to get on Pinterest and look for easy DIY art project with kids.\nThis week we made a card for my husband for our wedding anniversary.\nThis project was simple enough and the reason I chose it. The inspiration for this card came from 366 cards on Instagram, This insta account is maintained by a mom who does one card with her son each day and they are so simple and yet so brilliant that I can’t help but be inspired by her.\nFor my card, I started with choosing a quote. I did this while Azlan was at his nursery. Well, I did most of the work when he was at the nursery but since he is just four, I thought to just keep the easy stuff for him.\nWhen I searched the web from quotes, I came up with really cheesy quotes. Quotes that I am sure my husband would only make fun of I wrote them. So I created one on my own:\n”If our family was orange juice, you would be the orange.”\nOn the cover of the card, I decided to go for an orange image dissected in half. Here is the image I found on the internet.\nI then analyzed it. I needed three colors, apart from the background-color: yellow and two shades of orange. Simple enough.\nI devoured a few magazines that I had. Found the colors and cut them out.\nWith Azlan back from the nursery, we went to stick the pieces together. He put glue on them and I guided him to paste the pieces together. I know the card did not turn out perfect but we were not looking for perfection. We were looking for spending time together and to make a card that was brought from time rather than money.\nThis easy DIY art project with kids was extremely simple and I believe it was best for the first time. We can do more complex projects over time but this seemed like a good start.\nHandmade Card: Easy DIY Art Project with Kids", "domain": "design"}

This furled line is designed to enhance your casting precision, effortlessly turning over flies and light baits for more effective fishing. Featuring convenient loops on each end, it offers seamless attachment to your rod and easy connection to a leader or Quick Connect. Whether you’re using our Tenkara rod or the versatile 10ft telescopic rod, this line is the perfect complement to your fishing arsenal.\n- Optimized Length: At 10 feet, this line is ideally suited for a variety of fishing conditions, offering excellent control and reach.\n- Furled Design: The furled construction ensures smooth, tangle-free casting and superior fly presentation.\n- Dual Loop System: Equipped with two loops for hassle-free attachment to your rod and for connecting leaders or Quick Connects.\n- Versatile Compatibility: Perfectly matches with our Tenkara rod and 10ft telescopic rod, enhancing your fishing technique and success.\n- Improved Fly Turnover: Expertly designed to turn over flies and light baits, providing better fishing opportunities in diverse environments.\nUnderstanding the Furled Tenkara Fly Line\nThe world of micro fishing, tenkara fishing, and fly fishing is rich with specialized gear each designed to enhance the angling experience. Among these the furled Tenkara fly line stands out as a unique and effective tool for fly fishers. Originating from the traditional Japanese method of fishing, Tenkara, this type of line is crafted through a meticulous process of twisting and weaving fibers resulting in a tapered line that is both lightweight and durable.\nUnlike the conventional monofilament lines a furled Tenkara line is made from multiple strands creating a thicker yet more supple line. This construction allows for a more delicate and controlled presentation of the fly. This makes it ideal for micro fishing and trout fishing in smaller streams and rivers where precision is key. The furled design also offers a significant advantage in terms of resistance to wind aiding anglers in achieving more accurate and longer casts even in challenging conditions.\nWhy Choose a Furled Tenkara Fly Line?\nChoosing a furled Tenkara fly line can significantly elevate your fishing experience. Here’s why:\n- Enhanced Fly Presentation: The furled line’s design allows for a gentle landing of the fly on the water mimicking the natural movement of insects. This subtlety can be the difference between spooking the fish and enticing a bite. Many micro fish are close to the surface and a gentle presentation is ideal.\n- Versatility: Whether you’re a seasoned angler or a beginner the furled Tenkara line is remarkably user-friendly. It’s versatile enough to handle various fishing conditions and compatible with different types of flies and baits.\n- Reduced Drag: The tapered design reduces drag in the water providing a more natural drift of the micro bait or fly. This is crucial in fly fishing as unnatural movement can deter fish. Micro fish species can also be wary of poor bait presentation.\n- Durability and Strength: Despite its delicate appearance the furled line is robust and can withstand the rigors of regular use. Its strength makes it a reliable choice for catching a range of fish sizes. It’s perfect for micro fish species, trout, panfish, and bass.\nThe furled Tenkara fly line is more than just a piece of fishing equipment; it’s a testament to the art and precision of fishing. Its design and functionality cater to the nuanced needs of the micro angler promising an enjoyable and fruitful fishing experience.", "domain": "design"}

All finishes are applied by facilities which are pre-qualified vendors for both Oregon and Washington Department of Transportation’s projects.\nA bulk of MtNF’s products have a Class 1 anodized finish. With clear (natural) anodizing being the most popular followed by dark bronze and black. Anodizing provides a finish with an extremely long life span and offers significant economic advantages through maintenance and operating savings. Anodizing is a reacted finish that is integrated with the underlying aluminum for total bonding and unmatched adhesion. Scars and wear from fabrication, handling, installation, frequent surface dirt cleaning and usage are virtually non-existent. Rinsing or mild soap and water cleaning usually will restore an anodized surface to its original appearance.\nHot-dip galvanizing involves dipping steel into a zinc smelter at approx. 450°C following the appropriate pre-treatment. Zinc and steel will then react with one another. An iron-zinc alloy will form on the surface of the steel. Under normal conditions, hot-dip galvanizing will protect against corrosion for up to 50 years and generally more than 25 years in the case of higher exposure levels.\nPowder Coating –\nDue to the limited colors available with anodizing, customers may request that their product be powder coated since powder coatings are available in an almost limitless range of colors and textures. Powder coating may be applied over mill finish aluminum and galvanized steel. For the powder coating process, dry powder is shot through an electrostatic gun onto the metal exterior. The gun gives the powder a negative charge, and the negatively charged powder is attracted to the grounded part. The attraction results in fast, even application. Once the coating reaches the desired thickness, the coated piece is placed in a curing oven, where the heated powder gels. Curing creates thermal bonds between powder particles, resulting in a smooth, hard finish.\nLiquid Paint –\nVery similar to powder coating, MtNF used liquid paint to provide customers with an almost limitless selection of colors for their projects. MtNF uses a vendor with a high-speed conveyor system for electrostatic paint applications. The processes differ where powder coating must be heat-cured at high temperatures while electrostatic painting uses a liquid paint that requires only time to dry. With large projects where economy of scale comes into play, liquid paint can be an economical solution similar to anodizing.\nMtNF can apply an abrasive finish to aluminum and stainless steel products.", "domain": "design"}

Crafted from the roots of teak trees, this type of furniture not only showcases the natural beauty of wood but also promotes eco-friendly practices. However, what many may not realize is the intricate process involved in creating these stunning pieces. In this article, we delve deep into the behind-the-scenes journey of crafting sustainable teak root furniture.\nHarvesting Teak Roots: A Sustainable Practice\nThe journey begins in the forests of Southeast Asia, where teak trees flourish. Unlike conventional logging practices, which involve cutting down entire trees, the harvesting of teak roots follows a more sustainable approach. Local artisans carefully select mature teak trees that have naturally fallen or been uprooted due to environmental factors.\nBy utilizing these discarded roots, craftsmen minimize the ecological impact of furniture production while also repurposing a valuable resource that would otherwise go to waste. This sustainable harvesting practice ensures the preservation of teak forests and promotes biodiversity in the region.\nFrom Roots to Raw Materials\nOnce the teak roots are collected, they undergo a series of processes to transform them into usable raw materials for furniture making. The roots are cleaned, stripped of bark, and carefully inspected for quality. Skilled artisans then cut and shape the roots into various components, such as table legs, chair frames, and decorative accents.\nOne of the remarkable aspects of teak root furniture is the inherent uniqueness of each piece. Since no two roots are alike, craftsmen must adapt their techniques to the natural contours and shapes of the wood, resulting in truly one-of-a-kind creations.\nThe Art of Joinery and Assembly\nOnce the raw materials are prepared, the intricate process of joinery begins. Joinery techniques play a crucial role in ensuring the strength, stability, and longevity of teak root furniture. Traditional methods such as mortise and tenon joints are employed to create strong connections between individual components without the need for adhesives or metal fasteners.\nSkilled craftsmen meticulously fit each piece together, paying close attention to detail to achieve seamless integration. This labor-intensive process requires precision and expertise but ultimately results in furniture pieces that are not only visually striking but also built to last.\nFinishing Touches: Enhancing Natural Beauty\nAfter assembly, the furniture undergoes a finishing process to enhance its natural beauty and protect it from environmental elements. Artisans may apply a clear sealant or natural oil finish to enrich the wood’s color and grain while providing moisture resistance.\nAdditionally, some craftsmen may incorporate artistic touches such as carving, staining, or inlay work to further customize the appearance of the furniture. These finishing touches not only add aesthetic value but also showcase the skill and creativity of the artisans.\nThe Environmental Impact of Teak Root Furniture\nOne of the most compelling aspects of teak root furniture is its positive environmental impact. By utilizing reclaimed teak roots and employing sustainable harvesting practices, the production of teak root furniture helps reduce deforestation and minimize carbon emissions associated with conventional logging.\nFurthermore, teak wood is renowned for its durability and resistance to decay, making it an excellent choice for outdoor furniture. This longevity contributes to the sustainability of teak root furniture, as it reduces the need for frequent replacements and minimizes waste.\nConclusion: A Testament to Sustainable Craftsmanship\nIn conclusion, the process of creating sustainable teak root furniture is a testament to the ingenuity, craftsmanship, and environmental stewardship of artisans. From the careful harvesting of teak roots to the meticulous craftsmanship and finishing touches, each step in the process reflects a commitment to sustainability and quality.\nBy choosing teak root furniture, consumers not only bring a touch of natural beauty into their homes but also support ethical and eco-friendly practices in the furniture industry. As awareness of environmental issues continues to grow, sustainable alternatives like teak root furniture offer a compelling solution for conscious consumers seeking both style and sustainability.", "domain": "design"}

Particle size is arguably the most important of these variables.\nParticle size matters in API\nAdjustments in particle size may alter related properties, such as shape, surface area and porosity. This, in turn, can affect everything from bio-availability to shelf stability. Given the increasingly potent APIs being developed, smaller particle sizes are typically more desirable in today’s pharmaceutical marketplace. Not surprisingly, then, particle size is the property most frequently monitored during the pharmaceutical development and manufacturing process.\nProperties such as particle size distribution curves, particle shape and particle surface characteristics also influence the behavior and suitability of a drug formulation.\nSurface characteristics will influence flowability, compactability and hygroscopicity. These properties are of great interest to process engineers, as they may significantly affect pharmaceutical manufacturing processes, such as milling, wet granulation and encapsulation.\nPrecise targeting in the Pharmaceutical manufacturing process\nIn any given drug formulation, each solid possesses four intrinsic properties: composition, particle size, particle shape and particle surface characteristics. Among these, particle size is frequently of chief interest when it comes to the pharmaceutical manufacturing process.\nParticle size may be manipulated during the solid manufacturing process, or adjusted later, through screening or milling.\nAPI Milling can affect particle size and shape — and thus the physio-chemical properties associated with these parameters. Process validation is crucial during this stage.\nParameters such as shape and porosity are directly related to particle size, thus particle size and particle size distribution (PSD) are arguably the two most important factors to consider when developing new drug candidates.\nParticle size distribution analysis is an important parameter regarding FDA process validation guidelines. The narrower the particle size distribution range, the more on-spec/on-target product manufactured.\nParticle size measurement\nParticle size measurement is accomplished using a variety of methods, often involving a small sample moving through a detector. Examples include X-ray diffraction, light scattering, X-ray absorption, passage through a calibrated orifice, laser diffraction or light obscuration.\nRegardless of the method employed, it is important to assess particle sizes and PSDs whenever a process change occurs. Scaling up from laboratory, to pilot to full production runs, for example, often requires significant attention to equipment and pharmaceutical process validation.\nQuadro Engineering specializes in innovation and improvement\nFortunately, Quadro Engineering specializes in the design and manufacture of some of the pharmaceutical industry’s most dependable, efficient pharma milling equipment for size reduction.\nThe Quadro Comil®series of milling machines have been carefully designed to maximize the efficiency of process scale-up.\nQuadro are trusted the world over to understand the specific application needs and to find just the right solution given our extensive range of mills and the number of screens and impeller designs we own.\n- Scale up to larger powder milling units as production needs increase\n- Particle Size Reduction Mills and Sizing Equipment\n- How to choose the correct mill screen and impeller for your product", "domain": "design"}

This included a localization module and the main processors for sensors data and autonomous decision making.\nFinally, the WaySight, a multi-functional handheld operator control unit, was used as the primary operator interface for the GUSS vehicles. Using the one pound WaySight, the dismounted Warfighter can easily command the vehicles in various modes depending on the missions being executed. The WaySight modes include: “Target Mode” for rapid path planning using its sight-and-click waypoint tagging, “Follow Me” mode in which GUSS follows autonomously at a predetermined distance, and “WE Mode” which allows for teleoperation of the vehicle. With a few button presses, the operator can quickly switch between modes and use the most appropriate method of robotic control as situation the situation changes.\nGUSS is currently an ongoing effort, having completed the first two phases and a series of tests. The most recent experimentation includes being the Marine Corps Warfighting Laboratory’s Enhanced Company Operations Limited Objective Experiment 4.0.

This phenomenon is attributed to gear ratios and their capacity to effectively differentiate in size to serve different purposes. In 1894, the first chain drive transmission was invented by Emile Levassor and Louis-Rene Panhard. However, this invention was still a primitive design compared to what transmissions are nowadays.\nWe can imagine transmissions as being a whole set of gears with different ratios that rotate the wheels of the vehicle at different speeds. The gears are loosely placed over the output shaft, which is where the rotational motion goes to the wheels. The engine provides this motion via an input shaft which is connected to a crankshaft that comes out of the engine itself. Additionally, a countershaft is geared directly into the input shaft, which rotates the gears in the output shaft. This countershaft acts as the connector between the input and output shafts, and it delivers rotation to all gears.\nIn the output shaft, a few more components are needed to make the transmission work. Initially, as the input shaft and the countershaft are rotating the gears from the output shaft at different speeds, a synchronizer ring is needed to match the speed from the output shaft with the speed from the input shaft. Once this is done and the synchronizer and the gear that we´re aiming for are rotating at the same speed, a shift sleeve connected to the output shaft is going to slide into the gear, making it the active gear. Whilst this gear change is happening, the clutch needs to be pressed in order to disengage the engine from the input shaft and make the speed from the gear and the synchronizer the same.\nFrom 1st to 4th gear, their shift sleeves and synchronizers are connected to the output shaft. Connected to the shift sleeves are the shift forks; these are responsible for pushing and moving the sleeve and the synchronizer from one gear to the other via a shift shaft moved by the gearbox.\nSome transmissions have extra gears in order to attain more speed: 5th, 6th, or even the 7th gear. These are usually used for racing and are great for vehicles with a great demand for speed and low demand for torque. To understand this, let us talk about the gear ratios in a commercial car. In the first gear, 3.8 rotations of the input shaft are needed to rotate the output shaft one revolution, in the second 2.06, in the third 1.4, in the fourth 1, and in the fifth 0.8. This power delivery system gives the vehicle the ability to have a better fuel economy, better performance, and greater control. The fourth gear is usually known as direct drive, as its ratio is 1:1, and the fifth is called overdrive.\nCollins, L. (2020, 26 septiembre). The Evolution of Transmissions. TCT.

It's housed in one of the most splendid buildings in all of Ventura, complete with a remarkable and intact 1920’s interior. It also brings a sophisticated dining experience to the beach town.\nAfter an 18 month-long meticulous restoration of the hand-painted plaster ceilings, original murals, arts-and-craft tile work and mahogany woodwork, the restaurant opened.\nWatermark may celebrate the past but it firmly embraces the future. In addition to the main dining room on the ground floor and seating on the mezzanine level, the restaurant literally “raises the bar.” It's rooftop, glass enclosed lounge and bar featuring a retractable ceiling offers spectacular ocean and mountain views, and will double as a unique open-air music venue.\n“The project, besides being a landmark in Ventura and one of the most beautiful buildings in the county, provides an opportunity to bring world-class dining to the Central Coast,” According to Mark Hartley, owner of Watermark. “Our hope and intention is that the restaurant will attract people from out of the area to visit Ventura.”\nOn the ground floor booth there's table seating beneath oversized windows and beautifully preserved 1928 murals. The right side of the room offers a mahogany bar area, and in the back, extensive wine cabinets. That’s also where you will find the bank’s original vault protecting high-end spirits and liqueurs.\nIn addition to dining tables that overlook the main floor through the exquisite original wrought iron railings, the mezzanine level ‘wine loft’ has a fireplace and a private dining room suitable for wine tasting and special functions.\nOverall, the design of Watermark reflects its history in a color scheme that's warm, golden and inviting, with rust and green walls and golden marble floors of copper inlays. Iron and mica chandeliers, amber glass sconces and an under-lit gold onyx bar illuminate the room. Booths are upholstered in rich brocade with cognac leather seats, and burgundy velveteen draperies that soften the nine-foot high windows.\nIn contrast, the rooftop bar and lounge, is decidedly contemporary; a study in blues and silver, echoing the skies and ocean that surround the restaurant, certain to become a meeting place of choice, serving lunch, a small plate menu and late night dining.\nSurrounded by water and fire features, guests are invited to relax in intimate seating areas at both booths and tables. Also featured is a private dining room perfectly suited for meetings, complete with a drop down flat screen and its own ocean view terrace.\nAccording to Jim Rice, Managing General Partner, “Watermark will allow us to provide a five-diamond experience in an unpretentious elegant setting.\" “This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for a restaurant to be in a building like this in a community surrounded by the best ingredients in the country.”\nExecutive Chef Greg Kurtz heads up the kitchen, coming from another of the group’s Ventura restaurants, the popular (Westside Cellar). “Locally inspired cuisine will be the focal point of the menu where one can see the ocean surrounded by small grower and sustainable farms. What we can source locally will be a determining factor as to what appears on the menu and as a result, some items will change daily,” explains Kurtz. “Overall, the menu will be contemporary regional American cuisine, featuring a balance of fish, steaks and other meat dishes, along with the freshest seasonal vegetables.”\nWatermark Restaurant is housed in one of the most architecturally significant buildings in Ventura. Originally built in 1907 to house the Ventura Power Company, the building was extensively remodeled in 1928 as the elegant brick building it is today. Combining Spanish Colonial revival design with influences of Zig-Zag Art Deco, the stunning edifice artfully pairs terra cotta bricks with Malibu style ceramic tile. Inside, the hand-stenciled ceilings and wood paneling might remind you of Hearst Castle. The murals, painted by renowned La Jolla based artist Norman Kennedy depict early life at the Santa Buenaventura Mission. Architects responsible for the 1928 transformation were John C. Austin and Frederic M. Ashley, whose other work includes the Griffith Observatory, the Shrine Auditorium and the Los Angeles City Hall.\nOpen for lunch and dinner, Tuesday through Sunday, Watermark is located at 598 Main Street, at the corner of Chestnut Street, in Ventura’s vibrant historic district.

This happened at Fraunhofer FIT, where I was employed as student worker at that time. FIT had previous expertise in hand and finger-tip recognition by the award-winning 3DMT work by Georg Hackenberg, done in 2010. In his work he used the SwissRanger SR4000 TOF depth sensor, a device that is not affordable to end-users, still priced at more than 4000 USD.\nMy initial work was to extend 3DMT, adding support for the affordable Kinect sensor. It turned out finger-tips (and more generally, hand poses) are not easily identified at distances beyond 1.5 m between hand and sensor, due to limited depth image resolution. I then explored the use of skin-color classification from the high-resolution RGB image, all attempts showing major deficiencies in real-world environments. The goal to maximize the interaction space beyond 1.5 m with the Kinect could not be reached. I then developed a depth-data-based hand pose training and recognition system. Using a graphical tool, the user can design a set of hand poses (think: victory, fist, palm, ...), show the poses to the system (=train it) and finally get a working classification system that can be integrated into any C++ application.\nThe video below illustrates the procedure and also demonstrates a kiosk-application built on top of the classification. This application named \"FIT Xplorer\" allows guests to navigate through a catalog of employees and projects of the Fraunhofer FIT institue, using hand gestures. It was designed in a user-centered approach where the users were involved in both requirements, prototype testing and evaluation of the final prototype.\nThe Android game Looping Louie is an adaptation of the board game (take a look at this YouTube demonstration) to the Android platform. The real game is not only played by children but also by teenagers and adults who use it to consume alcohol at an increasing pace .\nWith a team of 5 fellow students we created an Android port of Looping Louie in the winter term of 2012, as part of the SCRUM lab held at Fraunhofer FIT. Each player uses her own device, and pressing the lever is mapped to a shake-up movement of the phone, which has to be made right when Louie's plane passes by. With all devices in the same WiFi network (using existing infrastructure or the Tethering-functionality of a phone), anyone can create a new game session which others can join. Once all players are ready, they start the game together, kicking Louie with their own lever until all players but one have lost their chickens. The SCRUM process was used throughout the creation of this game.\nClaim your station is a location-based Android game I developed with a fellow student during the 2011 winter term, for the MIxed-reality games for mobile devices lab held at Fraunhofer FIT. This Android game makes use of the GPS and NFC (Near Field Communication) capabilities of modern smartphones.\nThe idea is to detect the NFC-enabled Touch&Travel Touch points that Deutsche Bahn installed at almost all railway stations throughout Germany. These points have an RFID chip and thus an NFC-phone can read the ID of the chip. Their geographic distribution isn't perfect: not every station has these touch points, some have just one, some have more than 30 of them. In the game you can \"check in\" at these touch points by bringing your phone close to them (within few centimeters).\nBecause you are part of a team, if you manage that your team holds the relative majority of check-ins at the station, that station is then claimed by your team, and your team will get points for every minute the station belongs to you. Boring waiting times that results from waiting for the arrival of the next (connecting) train present the perfect opportunity to play the game.\nThe game is not available on Google Play due to being an unfinished prototype. You can, however, take a look at a few screenshots below.\nShadowBall is a mixed-reality Kinect game for PC that was developed in a team of 4 fellow students and I, as part of the user-oriented design lab at Fraunhofer FIT. The project took place in the 2011 summer term (April - July 2011). The focus of the lab was to continuously develop and improve prototypes based on user interviews and test sessions, where users interact with the prototypes.\nTo get an idea about the game, see the video below which explains it faster than words. Rather than creating a mouse&keyboard-based game, the user's whole body is part of the gameplay experience. The user stands in front of the Microsoft Kinect, which captures the body which is shown as semi-opaque silhouette (shadow) on the screen.\nIn a nutshell, the game is similar to flipper consoles, except that you hit the ball with your arms and legs which are solid, acting as reflectors to the ball. The goal is to hit the ball at the right angle so that it hits a target area (i.e., falls into a hole). Some target areas are not appropriate for all balls, thus we used a jungle-theme where balls are represented by fruits or meat, the correct target areas being represented by carnivores or herbivores respectively.\nWhile being a student worker at the User-Centered Computing group of Fraunhofer FIT in 2011, my colleagues and I worked on a home-automation Android app. Electrical devices are connected via smart plugs which can be remotely controlled by the user. The user is always aware of the current power consumption and which devices are turned on. A live camera feed allows the user to monitor their home. We developed the Android app, an HTML+JS Viewer (based on Google Web Toolkit) and the Java-based server software that enabled anyone to control a few devices that were installed in a demonstration room at Fraunhofer FIT. A demo video can be seen on this Fraunhofer FIT web site.\nNexuiz (Classic) is a free, open-source First Person Shooter (FPS) game, similar to commercial games such as Unreal Tournament and Quake. The scene around it was most active between the launch in 2005 and the beginning of 2011. At that time the game was simply called \"Nexuiz\" but then the core development team decided to create a spin-off commercial game, which is now officially referred to as Nexuiz, using the CryEngine. The greater part of the community and many developers who insisted on the open-source idea of the game decided to fork Nexuiz and to create the game Xonotic. From forum analysis, its community is shrinkin since mid 2013, nevertheless it is an entertaining, free FPS worth giving a shot!\nBetween 2008 and 2010 I contributed to (the original) Nexuiz as GreEn`mArine in various ways:\nI was very interested in competitive 1-vs-1 and team-games. With the help of other community members, I hosted several tournaments in Europe and created a PHP-based ladder website where interested players could register and challenge others in different game modes (both websites are no longer used, but do still work). I also contributed a few features to the game, related to competitive gaming, such as a warm-up mode where people would ready up to begin the game, and the ability to call time-outs.\nIn 2009 I hosted a video podcast called Nexuiz In-Depth (click here to get to the YouTube channel). In about 10 episodes I explained aspects of the in-game movement as well as the usage of many hidden commands that I discovered while doing programming work on the core.\nYet another contribution was the Nexuiz Demo Recorder. This is a Java tool (with a graphical user interface) that can be used to automate the job of mass-recording videos from Nexuiz or Xonotic. Both games allow to record your play sessions in a compressed format called \"demo\", which doesn't actually contain video, but the sequence of events that happened in the game (e.g. when you fired a rocket at second 33).\nThe game engine provides the means to replay these demos at arbitrary speed and to dump them to video files (e.g. uncompressed avi). Using that feature is cumbersome since you have to manually start the recording process, i.e. press a button once you want your video to start, and likewise when you want it to end. The Nexuiz Demo Recorder allows to specify (many) recording jobs in advance, where you specify the file name of the recording, start second, end second and destination video file name. Then the program will launch the game and batch-process all your jobs. Thus, it is a huge time-saver for anyone who creates machinima movies, such as “fragmovies” that demonstrate the skill of individual players or teams.\nBefore starting to play Nexuiz in 2008 I had played the game Tactical Ops: Assault on Terror for 5 years. Tactical Ops can be described as an arcade-version of the classic Counter-Strike game. At the time the game was very popular and the \"clan wars\" (=matches between two clans/teams) took places in leagues and tournaments, including ClanBase, ESL (Electronic Sports League) and GameStar Liga.\nTactical Ops also allowed to record games in the demo format and to export its replays as videos. This kindled my interest and so I created a total of 3 \"frag videos\" featuring players from my clans (including me) battling (= fragging / taking down) other teams.\nHaving created the Nexuiz Demo Recorder (see above) I also used it to create two Nexuiz videos (which were never published).\nLike this page?

He is also the Vice Creative Director of ART+COM, a private company that explores the communicative potential for new media and technology.\nART+COM began with a “motley” crew of artists, hackers, and engineers who wanted to explore the new medium of computers in the context of communication. Over the years, ART+COM has expanded from 20 to nearly 60 team members. With this growth in staff, ART+COM’s collaborative environment is crucial to its success as a company. Hearing Ängeslevä’s discussion of ART+COM shed light on the importance of collaboration within the workplace, a topic that I can apply to my own work. ART+COM does not separate the early concept design from the manufacturing. As a result, the manufacturers are not dealing with the production of somebody else’s ideas, and vice versa. ART+COM does is bringings those people around the same table to leverage the knowledge of the production in the conception. In this kind of environment, it is enriching to share ideas and get perspectives from different disciplines.\nAnother focus of today’s discussion is the numerous projects that ART+COM has produced in the past several years, including “Raphael’s Pendulum” (2018) and “Evolutionary Stairs” (2014). Here, he notes that technology should never be driving the project and there is this expectation that technology is the solution to all projects. ART+COM understands that companies want to communicate their innovative future-oriented high-tech attitude, but that does not mean they need to use, for instance, augmented reality machine learning; you need agency in order for technology to be most effective.\n“Technology already has its own agenda”\nThe interview with Ängeslevä offered me a new and global perspective on the intersection between art, design, and digital technology. When hearing Ängeslevä talk about his work, it is evident that he is passionate about his careers in both the academic and commercial art worlds. One of the key pieces of advice that Ängeslevä offered is to reach out and talk to people.\n“It is this kind of extended network of alumni and the kind of connects that … matter a great deal, [however] you cannot count on that. But you can cherish that … and at some point in your life, you can then pass the baton to the next generation.”", "domain": "design"}

Do not wear in the pool.\n- Avoid sweat: Remove jewelry when exercising, or any other demanding physical work, as sweating causes the jewelry to tarnish.\n- Storing in our original boxes or pouches is the best way to keep your jewelry. A zip plastic bag is a great alternative if no longer have the packaging.\n- Avoid cosmetics: Apply scents or cosmetics before you put on your jewelry. Perfumes and lotions will tarnish the jewelry.\nBrass is the most commonly used base metal used by luxury fashion houses to produce their costume jewelry due to its malleable characteristics. Think Chanel and Dior. We plate our pieces in 14k yellow gold, 18k rose gold and rhodium. Plated brass pieces will, unfortunately, tarnish over time. However, if you keep the pieces away from water, sweat and cosmetics, and keep them in a tightly sealed plastic pouch their beauty will last much longer.\n- We use natural jemstones and pearls in our jewelry.\n- Cubic zirconia is one of the highest quality replica of natural diamonds, and sometimes clearer and brighter than natural diamonds.", "domain": "design"}

In particular, the future of the southern cornerstone was questioned in light of the Woodrow Wilson Bridge reconstruction. Specifically, the bridge project was said to \"threaten\" the cornerstone in that it \"could damage or destroy the cornerstone's site\" at Jones Point Park.\nThe new bridge will be built adjacent to the existing bridge, more than 2 1/2 football fields (more than 800 feet) north of the cornerstone. Also, the new bridge's impact on Jones Point Park will be minimized through a number of design characteristics, including wide pier spacing. In contrast with the existing bridge, the much greater distance between piers will minimize the new bridge's physical intrusion into the park, enabling greater utilization of the recreational space under the bridge and improving the sightlines through the park.\nOur intent is not only to protect the south cornerstone but to enhance the site. Located immediately south of the Jones Point Lighthouse, placed amid riprap within the lighthouse retaining wall, it is now difficult to access. The 207-year-old marker itself needs restoration, having been subject to considerable exposure. As part of efforts to improve areas adjacent to the bridge, we will work with the local community, the park's owner -- the National Park Service -- and others to explore the creation of a south cornerstone visiting space that is a focal point for residents and visitors.\nClearly, building the new Woodrow Wilson Bridge will occasion some unavoidable negative impacts. But it's also an opportunity to leave Jones Point Park an even better place for kids to play soccer, citizens to walk their dogs and history buffs to experience our region's heritage.

The Kavre Dwarpaleswor Lower Secondary school in a rural village outside of Kathmandu was destroyed, halting the education and development of 300 children who travel for 90 minutes to and from school every day.\nLocals came together after the earthquake to construct temporary structures to keep the school running, but a long-term solution is necessary to build resiliency within the community. With your help, we can sustainably rebuild this vital community resource and provide a safe learning and gathering space for generations to come.\nBuilding a Sustainable Future\nThe first phase of five classrooms on the lower level is nearing completion, but more funds are needed to complete the remaining classrooms on the upper level, the waste and sanitary facilities, kitchen, and library. The site has been studied and designed with sustainability in mind: using local materials and resources for building, renewable energy for power, terraced landscapes to prevent erosion, and zero-waste management strategies that will be used in conjunction with a neighboring farm. The project is also supporting the local economy by employing a Nepali construction company, Rammed Earth Solutions, for the building construction and exposing the community to new ways of creating and sustaining place.\nPromoting Equal Education for Girls\nThe provision of sanitary facilities is extremely important for the development of female education, as girls are often forced to stay at home during menstruation due to lack of proper facilities. Only 66% of adolescent girls in Nepal are actively attending school, and Nepali women are only 65.7% as literate as men (Unicef Statistics). This inequality in educational attainment can be mitigated by providing a clean, central space for girls to address their needs without missing school. In addition to girls, many children in the villages surrounding Kavre School do not have access to plumbing and sanitation at home, and clean, modern sanitary facilities at school is vital to their health and development.\nCultivating a Community Space\nIn addition to the educational use of the new school, the buildings will also function as a gathering place for the community to hold meetings and events, as there is currently no other central public space to do so. The school will also serve as a pilot project for rammed earth construction of buildings in rural Nepal, where winding mountain roads make vehicular transport of materials difficult.\nKavre School is being constructed using sustainable site strategies and locally-sourced rammed earth, which is a material made of local clay, soil, and cement, rendering it earthquake proof. The school will be powered by solar panels mounted on the wide gabled roof that provides shelter during the monsoon season. An anaerobic digester will process the human waste from the new toilet facilities into fertilizer that will be used on the adjacent farm. Finally, a terraced gabion basket amphitheater will support the integrity of the landscape by preventing erosion and also act as seating for outdoor performances and meetings.\nHow you can help\nWe need to raise $50,000 to pay for materials and labor to finish construction of the upper school. Any donation you make will go towards improving the quality of life and education for the children and families of this courageous community.\n-Your contribution will directly impact the lives of young women who will no longer have to stay away from school once a month, increasing their social and economic opportunities.\n-Your contribution will provide clean and modern sanitary conditions for the entire community who uses the space, improving health conditions and limiting the spread of infectious diseases and premature death.\n-Your contribution will increase the visibility of rammed earth as a sustainable building material that can prevent the devastation and loss of life caused by earthquakes in this region and beyond.\n-Any additional funds raised will go towards the completion of the school and any furnishings and supplies needed.\nThank you for your support!\nFor more information, and to download the Kavre School Master Plan, visit https://www.c-ap.net/kavre-school/ and sign up for the email newsletter to receive updates on the project.\nThis campaign is an effort led by Kids of Kathmandu with pro-bono assistance from Cycle Architecture + Planning and Arun Rimal of the Office of Structural Design.", "domain": "design"}

The inverter does not produce any power; the power is provided by the DC source.\nA power inverter can be entirely electronic or may be a combination of mechanical effects (such as a rotary apparatus) and electronic circuitry. Static inverters do not use moving parts in the conversion process.\nCircuitry that performs the opposite function, converting AC to DC, is called a rectifier.\nInput and output\nA typical power inverter device or circuit requires a relatively stable DC power source capable of supplying enough current for the intended power demands of the system. The input voltage depends on the design and purpose of the inverter. Examples include:\n- 12 V DC, for smaller consumer and commercial inverters that typically run from a rechargeable 12 V lead acid battery or automotive electrical outlet.\n- 24, 36 and 48 V DC, which are common standards for home energy systems.\n- 200 to 400 V DC, when power is from photovoltaic solar panels.\n- 300 to 450 V DC, when power is from electric vehicle battery packs in vehicle-to-grid systems.\n- Hundreds of thousands of volts, where the inverter is part of a high-voltage direct current power transmission system.\nAn inverter can produce a square wave, modified sine wave, pulsed sine wave, pulse width modulated wave (PWM) or sine wave depending on circuit design. The two dominant commercialized waveform types of inverters as of 2007 are modified sine wave and sine wave.\nThere are two basic designs for producing household plug-in voltage from a lower-voltage DC source, the first of which uses a switching boost converter to produce a higher-voltage DC and then converts to AC. The second method converts DC to AC at battery level and uses a line-frequency transformer to create the output voltage.\nThis is one of the simplest waveforms an inverter design can produce and is best suited to low-sensitivity applications such as lighting and heating. Square wave output can produce “humming” when connected to audio equipment and is generally unsuitable for sensitive electronics.\nA power inverter device which produces a multiple step sinusoidal AC waveform is referred to as a sine wave inverter. To more clearly distinguish the inverters with outputs of much less distortion than the modified sine wave (three step) inverter designs, the manufacturers often use the phrase pure sine wave inverter. Almost all consumer grade inverters that are sold as a “pure sine wave inverter” do not produce a smooth sine wave output at all, just a less choppy output than the square wave (two step) and modified sine wave (three step) inverters. However, this is not critical for most electronics as they deal with the output quite well.\nWhere power inverter devices substitute for standard line power, a sine wave output is desirable because many electrical products are engineered to work best with a sine wave AC power source. The standard electric utility provides a sine wave, typically with minor imperfections but sometimes with significant distortion.\nSine wave inverters with more than three steps in the wave output are more complex and have significantly higher cost than a modified sine wave, with only three steps, or square wave (one step) types of the same power handling. Switch-mode power supply (SMPS) devices, such as personal computers or DVD players, function on quality modified sine wave power. AC motors directly operated on non-sinusoidal power may produce extra heat, may have different speed-torque characteristics, or may produce more audible noise than when running on sinusoidal power.\nModified sine wave\nThe modified sine wave output of such an inverter is the sum of two square waves one of which is phase shifted 90 degrees relative to the other. The result is three level waveform with equal intervals of zero volts; peak positive volts; zero volts; peak negative volts and then zero volts. This sequence is repeated. The resultant wave very roughly resembles the shape of a sine wave. Most inexpensive consumer power inverters produce a modified sine wave rather than a pure sine wave.\nThe waveform in commercially available modified-sine-wave inverters resembles a square wave but with a pause during the polarity reversal. Switching states are developed for positive, negative and zero voltages. Generally, the peak voltage to RMS voltage ratio does not maintain the same relationship as for a sine wave. The DC bus voltage may be actively regulated, or the “on” and “off” times can be modified to maintain the same RMS value output up to the DC bus voltage to compensate for DC bus voltage variations.\nThe ratio of on to off time can be adjusted to vary the RMS voltage while maintaining a constant frequency with a technique called pulse width modulation (PWM). The generated gate pulses are given to each switch in accordance with the developed pattern to obtain the desired output. Harmonic spectrum in the output depends on the width of the pulses and the modulation frequency. When operating induction motors, voltage harmonics are usually not of concern; however, harmonic distortion in the current waveform introduces additional heating and can produce pulsating torques.\nNumerous items of electric equipment will operate quite well on modified sine wave power inverter devices, especially loads that are resistive in nature such as traditional incandescent light bulbs. Items with a switch-mode power supply operate almost entirely without problems, but if the item has a mains transformer, this can overheat depending on how marginally it is rated.\nHowever, the load may operate less efficiently owing to the harmonics associated with a modified sine wave and produce a humming noise during operation. This also affects the efficiency of the system as a whole, since the manufacturer’s nominal conversion efficiency does not account for harmonics. Therefore, pure sine wave inverters may provide significantly higher efficiency than modified sine wave inverters.\nMost AC motors will run on MSW inverters with an efficiency reduction of about 20% owing to the harmonic content. However, they may be quite noisy. A series LC filter tuned to the fundamental frequency may help.\nA common modified sine wave inverter topology found in consumer power inverters is as follows: An onboard microcontroller rapidly switches on and off power MOSFETs at high frequency like ~50 kHz. The MOSFETs directly pull from a low voltage DC source (such as a battery). This signal then goes through step-up transformers (generally many smaller transformers are placed in parallel to reduce the overall size of the inverter) to produce a higher voltage signal. The output of the step-up transformers then gets filtered by capacitors to produce a high voltage DC supply. Finally, this DC supply is pulsed with additional power MOSFETs by the microcontroller to produce the final modified sine wave signal.\nThe AC output frequency of a power inverter device is usually the same as standard power line frequency, 50 or 60 hertz\nIf the output of the device or circuit is to be further conditioned (for example stepped up) then the frequency may be much higher for good transformer efficiency.\nThe AC output voltage of a power inverter is often regulated to be the same as the grid line voltage, typically 120 or 240 VAC at the distribution level, even when there are changes in the load that the inverter is driving. This allows the inverter to power numerous devices designed for standard line power.\nSome inverters also allow selectable or continuously variable output voltages.\nA power inverter will often have an overall power rating expressed in watts or kilowatts. This describes the power that will be available to the device the inverter is driving and, indirectly, the power that will be needed from the DC source. Smaller popular consumer and commercial devices designed to mimic line power typically range from 150 to 3000 watts.\nNot all inverter applications are solely or primarily concerned with power delivery; in some cases the frequency and or waveform properties are used by the follow-on circuit or device.\nThe runtime of an inverter is dependent on the battery power and the amount of power being drawn from the inverter at a given time. As the amount of equipment using the inverter increases, the runtime will decrease. In order to prolong the runtime of an inverter, additional batteries can be added to the inverter.\nWhen attempting to add more batteries to an inverter, there are two basic options for installation:\n- Series configuration\n- If the goal is to increase the overall voltage of the inverter, one can daisy chain batteries in a series configuration. In a series configuration, if a single battery dies, the other batteries will not be able to power the load.\n- Parallel configuration\n- If the goal is to increase capacity and prolong the runtime of the inverter, batteries can be connected in parallel. This increases the overall ampere-hour (Ah) rating of the battery set.\nIf a single battery is discharged though, the other batteries will then discharge through it. This can lead to rapid discharge of the entire pack, or even an over-current and possible fire. To avoid this, large paralleled batteries may be connected via diodes or intelligent monitoring with automatic switching to isolate an under-voltage battery from the others.\nDC power source usage\nAn inverter converts the DC electricity from sources such as batteries or fuel cells to AC electricity. The electricity can be at any required voltage; in particular it can operate AC equipment designed for mains operation, or rectified to produce DC at any desired voltage.\nUninterruptible power supplies\nAn uninterruptible power supply (UPS) uses batteries and an inverter to supply AC power when mains power is not available. When mains power is restored, a rectifier supplies DC power to recharge the batteries.\nElectric motor speed control\nInverter circuits designed to produce a variable output voltage range are often used within motor speed controllers. The DC power for the inverter section can be derived from a normal AC wall outlet or some other source. Control and feedback circuitry is used to adjust the final output of the inverter section which will ultimately determine the speed of the motor operating under its mechanical load. Motor speed control needs are numerous and include things like: industrial motor driven equipment, electric vehicles, rail transport systems, and power tools. (See related: variable-frequency drive ) Switching states are developed for positive, negative and zero voltages as per the patterns given in the switching Table 1.The generated gate pulses are given to each switch in accordance with the developed pattern and thus the output is obtained", "domain": "design"}

We manufacture unbreakable & reusable high-quality glassware and plates. In addition, we produce reusable glasses in consumer friendly retail carton packages, also under the brand VERDI.\nWith a variety of designs suited for many different environments and occasions, we provide a sustainable alternative to replace single use plastic glasses with reusable, high-quality, attractive, multi-purpose, safe and responsibly produced glasses.\nThey are ideal for both home and business, indoors and outdoors as an elegant, safe to use glass – an unbeatable alternative for daily use in areas unsuitable for regular glass.\nAll our products are designed and manufactured at our factory in Outokumpu, Finland.\nAkvila is a flexible, efficient and innovation driven family-owned company, founded over a century ago.\nThe company’s roots are in the town of Vyborg (now part of Russia) in the 1920s with walking salesmen offering inks and decorated nibs of ink pens. Akvila inks and glues were widely used in society and thus became a symbol of the nation’s civilization especially in the school environment, still remembered by the older generations. Until the 1960s ballpoint pens were still in use and ink bottles were needed in the era of fountain pens that followed.\nThe production of plastic products was introduced when a bake lite press was acquired to produce bake lite caps for glue and ink bottles.\nIn the 1960s the production line was expanded to disposable plastic cutlery. They eventually became the company’s main product line.\nIn 1995 Akvila started to produce glasses for multiple use as a sustainable alternative for disposables, made of polycarbonate, which is the same material that CD discs are made of. The Smart, Privilege and Tao glass lines were introduced with domestic and international markets in focus.\nToday, unbreakable glasses represent the main product line of the company. Akvila has 2,500 square meters glass production capacity including 7 injection molding machines and inhouse tampo printing capacity. We are constantly seeking new opportunities to enlarge our portfolio of products and market share. Akvila’s unbreakables are well known throughout the beverage industry, HoReCa and the retail trade.\nIn our operations, we keep our promises and do everything we can to satisfy customers’ expectations and needs. We continuously improve the quality of our products, services, and operations. We are committed to BSCI Code of Conduct values.\nOur ethical code of conduct includes compliance with laws and regulations, fighting corruption and bribery, respect of human rights, equality, diversity, and equality. We take responsibility for a safe, healthy, and well-maintained working environment wherever we operate. We do not accept sexual or other harassment and the use of child labor.

They are a low maintenance, cost efficient alternative to brick pavers and wooden decks. Available in a very wide variety of patterns, colors and design options we can create the perfect patio for you. It doesn't stop at just the patio. Steps and walkways from your home to the patios locations, built in fire pits and even BBQ's and outdoor kitchen areas! You may need a new slab poured for a new hot tub, or just need a nice area outside to set up your new patio table and chair. Sitting area outdoor couches and chairs are becoming more popular and are a cozy way to spend some time outside in the fresh air, from spring to fall. With so many options you can create a completely unique backyard that accents your home and reflects your outdoor lifestyle. Why choose concrete over wood or brick pavers? Wood rots, splinters and needs to be stained almost every year. Brick pavers settle unevenly over time, while grass and weeds grow through the cracks. Contrary to those, stamped and decorative concrete, with a little bit of maintenance and upkeep, can last a lifetime! But knowing when and when not to reseal a patio is crucial. Too early and the acrylic sealers can cause delamination of the concrete. So leave it to the pros and call Savannah Stamped Concrete to handle any and all maintenance and stamped patio projects!", "domain": "design"}

The slicing process works the same as any other ‘normal’ slicer except that the layer generation allows for curved layers. This gives some unique opportunities such as:\n- printing with zero overhang (where every layer of material is printed on a ‘previous’ layer with 100% overlap)\n- printing on top of existing (curved) objects\n- printing without supports\nFor the above reasons, the 5-Axis Slicer is used for metal repair, printing plastics on metal parts, and printing complex objects (in metal and/or plastic).\nExamples of objects sliced with the 5 Axis Slicer\nExample 1: A coil\nThe example of the coil shows a simulation of the toolhead motions (the ‘stick’) and the layer deposition (in yellow). The layers are deposited with zero overhang, and therefore, this coil can be printed without support structures.\nExample 2: Panton Chair\nThis example shows how the Panton Chair can be printed in any material (plastic or metal) with zero overhang and without support structures. The nozzle is represented by the ‘stick’, while the deposited material is shown in yellow.\nExample 3: Segmented toolpaths\nThe example shows how the 5 Axis Slicer can be used to generate toolpaths for segmented printing. This block can also be sliced in one piece, resulting in curved layers.\nExample 4: Radial toolpaths\nThe 5 Axis Slicer can generate radial toolpaths as well, just by selecting a tubular base, allowing to print complex shapes with zero overhang and without supports.\nReal world applications\nThe videos below show real world applications where our 5 Axis Slicer is applied. The first shows how to go from design to print, where the object is finally printed with an industrial robot (in plastic). The second video shows how the 5-Axis Slicer is used in metal repair. The third video shows how it is used to print polymer on a metal car part. The last video (most right) shows 3d metal printing of a ‘big’ elbow piece by a robot on a turn and tilt table. In all cases, there is no overhang and no supports are needed.\nHow it works\nThe 5 Axis Slicer requires two .STL models to generate a toolpath: a Print model and a Base model. The first model is the print itself. This should be a solid “waterttight” object with a realistic thickness. The Base model is the base on which you want to print.\nExamples of a Base:\n- a flat surface\n- a 3d-scanned car body panel\n- a segmented part of the object, printed previously\nSimulate and create 3D printer commands\nThe 5-Axis Slicer allows you to simulate the printing process with any toolhead, by uploading a STL model of it. Once you are done, press the button for “Save gcode’, and use this file in your favourite postprocessor. For instance, use RoboDK, Robotmaster or Robotstudio to generate print comands (for both robot and print tool). For non robot printers, we can provide postprocessors (for instance for Duet control boards).\nWhat will you make?\nFor those of you who are looking for a (not necessarily free, but) suitable slicer to print designs/models not open to the public: please contact us and send us a CAD model of something else what is representative for what you want to print; also, let us know what printer hardware (e.g. which robot cell) you intend to use.\nFor those of you who are looking for a cheap ride: you can try the 5 Axis Slicer software for a reduced price (the duration depends on what we agree), under the following conditions:\n- You have a 5 or more axis 3D printer up and running.\n- You are willing to share photos and videos on social media and create a link to our website and software.\nIf your do actually post videos, we will pay back money.\nIn any case, when you send us an email, or fill in the request form, make sure to fill in the required details as written above, and/or to repeat the requirements and confirm them. Also, state your name, company name (if applicable) and country of residence clearly.", "domain": "design"}

The second is The Landscape Impact and Visual Design of Windfarms by Caroline Stanton. There is also a discussion of aesthetics in chapter eight of Wind Energy Comes of Age, in the Preface to Wind Turbines & the Landscape, and in Design as if People Matter: Aesthetic Guidelines for the Wind Industry.\nWind Turbines & the Landscape originally appeared as Vindmøller og Landskab: Arkitektur og Æstetik in late 1995. The English translation, which wind energy aficionados eagerly awaited, was published in late 1996.\nThe report is beautifully illustrated with color photographs and land use maps depicting various views of wind turbine installations across Denmark. These installations include single turbines, clusters, and wind power plants. Technical specifications for each photo include the size, type, and number of turbines, their spacing, and the point of view from which the photo was taken.\nThe maps, in scales of 1:40,000 and 1:25,000, offer sufficient detail to identify roads, railroads, power lines, buildings, water courses, drainage canals, urban and industrial areas, and forests. Combined with Denmark’s 1:100,000 Topografisk Atlas, the detailed site maps can be used to replicate the views found in Wind Turbines & the Landscape.\nWasting no time, Nielsen clearly states his theme in the first paragraph: “Ecological awareness combined with artistic insight are to be considered key concepts when technical installations, including wind turbines, are located in the landscape.” “The goal,” he goes on to say, “is to establish a beautiful and narrative composition in relation to water or land surfaces, a visual balance between elements in the landscape created by man and nature, (as) a whole.\nNielsen warns early in the report that every effort to ‘hide’ or ‘blur’ a wind farm seems to be doomed to failure from the start because wind turbines exceed the scale of nearly all other objects on the landscape. But wind turbines can be successfully integrated with the land. Single wind turbines used by farmers, for example, become functionally a part of the farm and its other farm structures.\n“Order is the first commandment of aesthetics,” says Nielsen. In the design of wind plants this commandment emphasizes the necessity of presenting the wind turbines as “a clear coherent unit, i.e. in geometrical–often linear–formations” that contrast with the landscape. “A wind farm can be regarded as a gigantic sculptural element in the landscape, a land-art project if you like. . . The purpose must thus be to make the wind turbines and the landscape form a coherent unit emphasising both elements. . . . It is essential that the delimitation of the wind farm is perceived in a clear, unambiguous way–both at close range and from a distance. . . . This is best achieved by . . . creating rhythm and order in the internal geometry. And with a significant distance to other turbines in the area.” The latter theme of visually separating one project from another was emphasized in a 1984 study by architecture students at California Polytechnic Institute in Pomona, by landscape planner Robert Thayer in the late 1980s, and again more recently by Scottish landscape architect Caroline Stanton in her report, Landscape Impact and Visual Design of Windfarms.\nWhen wind turbines are erected in a geometrical pattern, Nielsen stresses that the individual turbines should be “located in accordance with an overall, thorough-going system to make it easier to perceive the wind turbines as a coherent cluster and not as single, scattered turbines. “Coherency” and “clarity” of a wind power plant as a single visual unit is a theme that is constantly repeated by both Nielsen and Stanton.\nAs with CalPoly’s findings in 1984 and that of subsequent observers, Nielsen recommends that designers strive for uniformity “with respect to design, rotational direction and speed, colour, height, and rotor diameter” among the turbines in their arrays.\nAdvocates of dispersed or distributed generation in North America who are struggling to define just exactly what these terms mean will find Nielsen’s suggestions helpful. He describes a wind plant as “a cohesive group, consisting of 8 or more single turbines,” a definition sufficiently broad to encompass the small arrays envisioned in America’s heartland. For his part Nielsen defines a “cluster” as an array of 4-7 turbines.\nClusters require special design consideration. Because there is less interference among turbines, Nielsen suggests packing the turbines closer together in clusters than would be acceptable in larger arrays. From a distance, tight clusters are perceived as a compact installation. In the example at Klinkby, four Vestas V27 turbines were installed in a row four rotor diameters apart.\nNielsen explains that one of Denmark’s first wind plants was installed on the island of Fanø in 1983. The project totaled 13 turbines. After the turbines were installed, roads used during construction were covered over and revegetated. This is of special interest considering the current controversy in California with erosion from wind plants due to excessive road construction. In a related example, page 15 offers a striking photo of a wind turbine installed in the border between two fields. The land is tilled to the base of the tower and there are no roads servicing the turbine.\nThe book examines 33 sites in some detail. At Kappel, for example, Nielsen suggests that the design of the DWT Wind Dane 34 “lacks clarity, and the nacelle appears architecturally unconnected with the otherwise very curved components of the wind turbine.” Other less charitable observers have called this particularly wind turbine a “box on a stick.” Nevertheless, Nielsen finds the sweeping arc made by the array alongside a coastal dike is quite pleasing in its repetition.\nLike others in the Danish wind community Nielsen argues that proper proportioning of components is essential for a coherent wind turbine design. “There should be a harmonious relationship between the tower and nacelle, between the nacelle and blades, and between the blades and tower–with aerodynamics as the common basis for the design,” he says. Similarly, he joins Thayer and Stanton in suggesting that the transition between the vertical lines of the tower and the horizontal lines of the ground is a critical area as well. “Unfortunately, turbine arrangements are also often marred by ugly transformer boxes in various shapes erected near the foot of the turbine. It would seem a good idea in the future to integrate this function in either the base or at the bottom of the turbine tower.”\nNielsen summarizes by encouraging designers to strive for total solutions: “from the overall landscape perspective, the transition from the turbine to the terrain, to the design of the turbine itself.”\nThe inclusion of scenes of wind turbines on the Whitewater Wash in the San Gorgonio Pass has almost become a cliche among observers of wind turbine aesthetics. Nielsen’s caption to the obligatory photo of a phalanx of machines on the Wash notes that the “dense compact turbine arrangements appear as technical landscapes with a scary but also fascinating effect.”\nNielson concludes that wind power development is here to stay and that development will only intensify. (This observation is not quite so apparent from the North American side of the Atlantic.) Wind turbines, he says, when located thoughtfully, can enrich the cultural landscape rather than detract from it.\nWind Turbines & the Landscape is a must for all wind turbine and wind power plant designers. It should also be required reading for every chief executive officer of a wind company, especially those in California.\nWind Turbines & the Landscape: Architecture & Aesthetics by Frode Birk Nielsen, Birk Nielsens Tegnestue, prepared for the Danish Energy Agency’s Development Programme for Renewable Energy, 1996, ISBN 87-985801-1-6, 63 pages, A4 format paperback, can be ordered for DKK 225 ($40) excluding VAT from Birk Nielsens Tegnestue, Soendergade 1A; DK-8000 Arhus C; Denmark; phone: +45 86 20 21 10; fax: +45 86 20 26 76.

Dubbed the Hoofster, the cloven-toed boot with a faux-fur overlay recalled the hooves of a shaggy pony. And now you can order it.\nThe Hoofster, created in partnership with Web3 design studio OnlyEver, is linked to an Ethereum NFT thanks to an embedded near field communication (NFC) chip. That connects the footwear to its digital twin, featuring a certificate of ownership, design and co-creation details, and further benefits to be unveiled as the project evolves.\nThe shoe was co-created with the AVAVAV community, whereby details from structure to color and materials—and even the name—were all put to a vote. Ultimately, it can be worn with or without the faux-fur, revealing a black leather\n“By embracing blockchain technology and involving our community in the design process, we are pushing boundaries and challenging traditional norms,” OnlyEver founder Rocco Bressanin said in a statement. He also emphasized his belief that the future of fashion lies in community and co-creation.\nOnlyEver is the newly launched arm of luxury Italian design and production company RubensLuciano, which boasts a 35-year history in the footwear industry. The firm has worked with clients including Versace, Birkenstock, Calvin Klein, and Beyoncé’s Ivy Park.\nOnlyEver combines physical production expertise with Web3 capabilities all under one roof, enabling the team to ensure continuity between digital and physical design while being able to swiftly realize projects without the need for outsourcing.\nThe Hoofster, currently live for presale on the OnlyEver website, will be made to order in an effort to combat issues of overproduction. It’s priced at €750 (about $795).\nAVAVAV’s Milan Fashion Week show turned heads with humor, as models sprinted down the runway in scrappy-looking, unfinished outfits. Hypebeast described the show as “stress-induced chaos,” calling it a critique of the fashion industry’s propulsive nature and intense deadlines.\nEarlier this year Lacoste unveiled an apparel collection co-designed with its Web3 UNDW3 community, while Casio recently announced a blockchain co-creation program linked to its G-Shock wristwatch line.\nLast month, AVAVAV launched the Finger Flop in collaboration with Amsterdam-based brand Yume Yume. The sandal, featuring a profile silhouette in the shape of toes, was a riff on AVAVAV’s signature finger boots, which are reminiscent of rubber gloves for the feet. Like the Hoofster, the concept has parallels with Maison Margiela’s iconic Tabi boots derived from traditional Japanese footwear.", "domain": "design"}

Site designs are like templates in that they can be used each time a new site is created in your Office 365 tenancy. A site design is essentially a list of actions (site scripts) that you want SharePoint to execute when creating new sites. These actions may include:\n- Creating a new list or library (or modifying the default one created with the site)\n- Creating site columns, content types, and configuring other list settings\n- Applying a theme\n- Setting a site logo\n- Adding navigation\n- Triggering a Microsoft Flow\n- Installing a deployed solution from the app catalog\n- Setting regional settings for the site\n- Setting external sharing capability for the site\nExtending site designs\nWhile site designs are continually being improved and expanded on by Microsoft, there are some gaps. From the beginning, Microsoft was aware they wouldn’t be able to fill all gaps from the start so they allowed us to extend the out of the box provisioning using Microsoft Flow and Azure Functions using the “triggerFlow” action. To learn more about this functionality follow this PnP documentation.\nThis model is extremely extensible and allows you to move some of the workload over to an Azure Function or Azure Automation Services to run PowerShell & C# to apply more custom provisioning artifacts such as pre-configured pages and web parts.\nCurrently there is a limitation using this model. Given that the provisioning process has moved off into Azure, we are unable to notify the user what the current stage the Azure Function is currently running at.\nHere is what the current messaging system looks like\nI’ve been told that that ability to provide our own messaging into this dialog is “coming”, but currently I wanted to overcome this limitation.\nClippy is back!\nMonths ago when SPFx application customizers were released I jokingly built a Clippy extension to run on modern SharePoint pages. The goal was to show how to call Microsoft Graph from an application customizer.\nI thought I would supercharge the functionality of Clippy by connecting him to the site design provisioning process.\nSocket.io + Express\nIn order to do this, I had to come up with a mechanism for providing Clippy real-time updates during the provisioning process. I had recently started playing around with Socket.io and I believed this would be the best route forward.\nI implemented Socket.io inside an Express api which is currently living up in the Azure. The plan is use this Socket.io as a messaging relay between the Azure Functions and my Clippy extension.\nThis is what the new flow looks like\nWe start with a site design that sends the new site URL to Microsoft Flow. Microsoft Flow will pick up that trigger and send an HTTP request to a Durable Azure Function orchestrator in Azure.\nThe Durable Azure Function orchestrator allows me to split out provisioning tasks (create lists, create pages, provision navigation, apply branding) while at the same time, maintaining state across my Azure Function tasks. As the provisioning is happening, I will send updates to Socket.io.\nThe Socket.io will receive the message from the Azure Function and update Clippy in real-time in SharePoint.\nIn order to configure Socket.io to be the messaging system, I had to make sure I was working with individual clients and not broadcasting messages across all Clippy extensions in my tenancy. To do this, I am emitting from Clippy a “room” name. This room is the siteURL of the current site Clippy is running.\nBy doing this, whenever I send a message from Socket.io to Clippy, I know exactly where to send it to.\nMessaging to Clippy is done through a POST request to Socket.Io The POST request contains a message, the provisioning status (complete/running) and the URL (unique identifier for the room). I take these parameters and emit the message to the Clippy extensions where room name is equal to the Site URL.\nConfiguring Clippy is quite simple, it’s as easy as connecting to Socket.io in Azure and subscribing to the “emit” events.\nInside the _renderPlaceHolders() function of my application customizer, I am going to create a new Clippy and register to Socket.io\nInside the _registerSocketIO, I instantiate a new socket request to Socket.io. Once connected, I am going to send a message with my “room” name. This room name is going to be uniquely identified by the siteUrl of the current site being provisioned.\nI have two basic actions I am subscribing to — “provisioningUpdate” and “provisioningComplete”. When Socket.io receives a message and broadcasts that, Clippy will pick it up and “speak” to the user the current update from provisioning.\nThe Azure Function\nAs previously mentioned, I am using a Durable Function to do the provisioning process. To learn about Durable Functions follow this link. Here is what the Orchestrator tasks looks like.\nNotice that I am passing in the siteUrl coming from my Microsoft Flow HTTP trigger. Inside, I have a couple tasks that are running.\n- Establish site as a hub site\n- Provisioning Lists\n- Provision Pages\n- Provision Terms\nAlso notice that I have an _emitUpdate() function which is running before and after my asynchronous tasks. During the provisioning process, this _emitUpdate is going to POST a message to Socket.io.\nWhat a task looks like\nLet’s take a look at what an individual task looks like.\nMy Azure Function task is going to create a new AppOnly context to SharePoint, load a provisioning template that contains a set of lists to be created and uses ApplyProvisioningTemplate(template) to apply the template to my site.\nMy _emitUpdate is fairly simple. It’s going to take a message from the Orchestrator, create a new HttpClient and execute a POST message to my Socket.io with the current status of the provisioning process.\nPutting it together\nWithout going to deep into this (because it really is more high level education than anything)… let’s see what these messages look like in real time.\nIf Gif is missing… wait for it to load. Full size view can be found here.\nWant to learn more?\nIf you are looking to learn more about how I put this together, join me at SharePoint Saturday Denver on October 6th and I’ll be also be demoing this solution at SharePoint Saturday New England!

So why not just create her own line of clothing that would be as casually fashionable as it was functional? The answer to that question is Iva Jean.\nDeOtte’s pieces employ just a few clever nips and tucks to ease the transition from road to office. Take the Reveal Skirt, pictured above. The tailored skirt unzips in the back to expose additional fabric for easy pedaling, and features a high-waisted cut for comfortable coverage.

Lines and linework\nThese terms do not refer to pen-and-ink or pencil sketches, but to borders, frames and rules. Horizontal or vertical, thick or thin, regular or irregular, they help define and delimit spaces around various elements on your pages. Good linework increases both the readability and “directionality” (see #5, below) of the design as a whole.\nAny enclosed area, form or contour in your design is a shape. Shapes in most layouts are square or rectangular, but nothing says they must be, and circles are useful, too. You can also use images to create other, regular or irregular shapes.\nTexture imparts a “surface” feeling, and is tactile in printed matter, so choosing the paper stock-matte, weave, coated-is a design decision, too. Textures on layouts meant for broadcast or the Internet are visual only, but still key.\nColor is probably the element that most designers are at least acutely aware of, if not schooled in. However, color is not required in many designs, and some art educators suggest creating designs without any color first. The artist, in this view, should then add only as much color as needed to enhance or complete the design. Another school of thought holds that color should be one of the first elements determined. Experience and experimentation will help every artist develop a good color sense and strategy.\nEffectively designed layouts, in magazines or on your computer screen, usually have a sense of motion. A good design will lead the reader’s eyes through the design deliberately, using color changes, shapes, linework and copy placement direct viewers’ attention to what the designer wants them to see.\nThe bottom line of good design is, quite simply, to attract readers’ attention, direct it in a particular way and, in concert with the copywriting, make a positive impression.", "domain": "design"}

We do have options on the hardware to include remote PTZ (Pan, Tilt, Zoom) cameras, Atem Mini Pro and Extreme models, and much more besides.\nWe design each solution to fit your exact requirements.\nMost churches opt for a three camera system, with a close up view of the Altar, another on the Lecturn and a third with a wide angled view of the main church.\nInternet connectivity is the most important part of any live streaming solution.\nOptions for fixed line internet and 4G internet solutions can be found here\nHigh Definition block cameras from Datavideo (as pictured), mounted sympathetically to the building in permanent locations, give crystal clear pictures without having to set up and take down each week.\nPower over Ethernet ensures cameras can be mounted remotely with no need for local power supply and with a selection of different mounting brackets, clamps and arms.\nFaculty is appeased by the discreet nature, various mounting methods, and simple cabling requirements of the cameras.\nThe Atem Mini from Blackmagic designs is a simple, yet incredibly powerful, video switching device that can be used straight out of the box with very little training. Packed with powerful features such as chromakeying (green screen to you and me), for those of a more advanced technical ability, as well as different fades, transitions and an image library for beginning and end scenes.\nEasily switch between four different cameras at the touch of a button, 4 HDMI inputs give you the potential for a great selection of angles and views.\nEach camera requires a single co-ax cable for the SDI video feed and a single ethernet cable from a centralised power supply, keeping installation and location requirements to a minimum.\nWe understand the specific nuances of working in buildings which are quite often several hundred years old and potentially listed.\nWherever possible we follow existing cable routes, using light coloured cable to that the aesthetics of the building are impacted as little as possible.\nA good video is nothing without sound, and the key to a good live stream is ensuring the quality of the audio is as good as the quality of the video.\nThe Atem Mini has two audio inputs, and we carry a multitude of connectors and cables to ensure we can receive an audio feed from your existing PA system straight into the video feed.\nNo PA system? We can provide everything from simple ambient microphones, capturing the natural acoustics, to a full PA system with microphones and loudspeakers.\nTo stream effectively in good quality, you will need an internet connection with an UPLOAD speed of 6Mbps MINIMUM. In almost all cases a standard ADSL connection is not sufficient. However, there are other options.\nWe have used Mobile 4G to good effect, we can check to see if there are Fibre connections available in your area, and we can even beam a good internet connection from another local building using point-to-point WiFi links. Whatever the issue, we have a solution for it.\nYou don't need expensive high powered Macs, with elaborate production software. Great results can be had with a mid-range laptop and the free OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) platform.\nBy letting the Atem Mini take care of the resource hungry video switching, the laptop is left to manage the streaming capabilities.

Simply Fashion has made no effort to identify the kinds of natural flowers and plants that these elements supposedly depict. Indeed, upon a cursory visual inspection, most of Plaintiff’s flowers and curls look more graphic and stylized than do flowers and stems in nature. Hence, Simply Fashion’s conclusion that Plaintiff’s design elements are generic copies of natural phenomena is unsubstantiated.\nSecondly, Judge Matz found that even if the design consisted of generic copies of natural phenomena, the unique arrangement of the flowers may warrant exclusive rights.\nJudge Matz applied the Ninth Circuit’s two-part objective extrinsic and subjective intrinsic test, and denied the motion to dismiss. The Court couldn’t reach the conclusion that no reasonable jury could find infringement.", "domain": "design"}

A magnet serves as a constant reminder for a business in customers’ homes but a pizza slice shaped magnet is just that and then some. Because of its odd shape, it is unique, informative, and more memorable.\nThe shape and size of the magnet is interesting so it’s definitely less forgetful for your customers. Even a beautifully designed rectangle magnet will not stand out as much as a pizza slice shaped magnet because of its unique size. Especially for a pizzeria that serves great pizza, it’s a great business decision to upgrade to the pizza slice magnets because they will definitely stand out to your customers.\nPizza slice magnets keep things interesting. They are also constantly useful because there’s always something that you customer might want to post on the kitchen fridge and the best way to do that is by using your pizza slice magnet. Your magnet should have all of your contact and ordering information on it so every time your customer walks by their fridge or opens the door to look for a snack, your magnet will be there and they won’t be able to resist ordering from you.\nWhen there is a constant token of your restaurant in their daily life, your customer is reminded of your great pizza and how much they want to eat at or order from your restaurant. Magnets have always been a great way to keep a reminder in your customers’ homes but with a uniquely shaped magnet, it’s even easier to remain as a reminder but also it can increase the orders you receive as well.

The images could first be cropped in Photoshop, then placed into Illustrator. To “crop out” unwanted areas, the designer can use Illustrator’s clipping masks. Those days are gone! Adobe Illustrator CC now offers native image cropping.\nNative cropping has many advantages. First, it allows designers to remove unwanted parts from an image. This can reduce file size and improve Illustrator performance as one works on layouts. Here’s how it works.\nFirst, you need to place the image. You can either use the keyboard shortcut Shift+Control+P or File->Place to place an image. Make sure the image is selected after it has been placed. To open the Properties pane, go to Window->Properties.\nTo begin cropping, click on Crop Image in the Quick Actions section.\nTo drag the crop area into the image, grab one of the crop handles located at one of the corners or edges.\nAfter you have adjusted the crop area to your desired size, click on the Apply button in the Properties panel.\nThat’s It! Your image has been resized to its original size.\nMeet Adobe Certified Instructor Ron Marsh\nNew Horizons Learning Group offers Adobe Certified Instruction from instructors like Ron Marsh.

Intended for corporate use, MTurk is based upon the notion that certain tasks are simple for people and difficult for computers. The Sheep Market is perhaps the most interesting application based on MTurk. Each online worker was paid 0.02 $(US) to \"draw a sheep facing left\", limited to 5 drawings per person.\nThis collaborative artwork was done in 2006 by Aaron Koblin as a MFA thesis project at the Department of Design - Media Arts at UCLA under the direction of Prof. Casey Reas. Aaron Koblin is an artist, designer and researcher focused on creating and visualizing human systems. He works actually at Google's Creative Lab in San Francisco and is one of the most discussed and thought-provoking contemporary artists. His work has been shown internationally and is part of the permanent collections at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York. The latest projects are the Radiohead music video \"House of Cards\", data visualisations of flight patterns, Bicycle Built for Two Thousand, Ten Thousand Cents, New York Talk Exchange and Visualizing Amsterdam SMS Messages.\nThe sheep drawings were collected over a period of 40 days, selected, printed on stamps, grouped in blocks of twenty and exhibited on a large wall. Collectible plate blocks with 20 unique lickable stamps with a certificate of authenticity were sold for 20 $US. In addition to images of the sheep, the drawing process was recorded as an animation which drew the sheep onto a screen with the original stroke order used by the artist in a conveyor-like system. This creation process can also be observed at the website. The sheepmarket project was exhibited in Spain, Japan, USA, Australia and the Netherlands and raises questions about the emergence of new labor systems in the infomation age.", "domain": "design"}
