The technology is far from the total-upgrade you are pitching-especially when all your digital apparatuses have a jack, the analog convenience of pulling the plug from one to the next without the fiddling of Bluetooth menus. I’ve also had botched firmware upgrades & an app with trackers needed to installed just to get those updates, something analog didn’t deal with. I had used a pair of wireless earbuds for a year & I can’t tell you the number of calls I had to cancel early due to listening to music earlier & now not having enough charge. If I know you are going to moving up & down often, I opt for using my pocket DAP that can support two-way Bluetooth transmission + USB DAC so I can freely move around & unplug-but more often I just replug them into my phone or DAP when doing another task, then the plug IEMs back into my laptop or audio interface when I return. Wrapping up cables ‘correctly’ plus keeping them stored tightly in a container is a recipe for no tangles. Many IEMs & hearbuds come with a carrying case like a Bluetooth pair might (without fire hazard of batteries). There are ways to wrap cables so they don’t tangle.

I just feel bad for all those kids in China who died at the assembly line to make these worthless products requiring suicide nets. What sucks is that I have called phone repair places what to do with them all, and they say they are all worthless. I think I have several more strewn about my tech graveyard. I think Ive gone through ~25 phones? I have a stack of several right here: - plus the one I took the pic with. (This was also when I was flying a lot to asia, and so many phones had lanyard brackets. I berated Jony Ive (I sent him an email) and told him that the lack of a lanyard bracket was BS. I dropped it and broke it because I hate cases, and the iphone is so damned slippery. I have dropped and broken so many fn iphones - once, I had just picked up a new phone and went to dinner where the restaraunt had concrete floors. Ive had every iPhone since launch upto the 8s+ For me, that scenario is less likely so I don’t bother with thick cases. An external case can provide some cushion to dissipate some of the impact energy to reduce the change of deformation. That is most of what I’ve experience so I put on a thin case for that. For face plants, just a tiny rock can focus the energy and crack a screen that might otherwise survive the fall.Įxternal cases provide protection from scratches and scrapes in low energy falls. Of course with sufficient height and impact, the structure cannot diffuse the energy enough to avoid severe deformation and breakage. That means that in 8 out of 10 basic fall scenarios the phone has a good chance of surviving. Falls on the back or face tend to shatter the glass. Falls on the corners or edges tend to just scratch the case. The phones are designed to distribute the forces and survive most falls, but there are ways that the phone can fall where it is very hard to prevent damage.

In the original film, the carpet flies not only in Agrabah, but also to the pyramids of Egypt, Zeus's temple in Greece, and the forbidden city in China.Nineteen years after the song was made, a parody of it called Aerial Area Rug from the Phineas and Ferb episode " Magic Carpet Ride" was done.The scene is one of the very few in the original script to have survived into the final film.Additionally, it was featured in a scene in World of Color and a short scene in Fantasmic!. The song would later be featured in attractions at the Walt Disney Parks and Resorts such as The Magic Carpets of Aladdin and Mickey's PhilharMagic.The ones that eventually made the cut were: " When You Wish Upon a Star" (#7), " Someday My Prince Will Come" (#19), " Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" (#36), "Wind Beneath My Wings" (#44), " Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah" (#47), " Beauty and the Beast" (#62), " The Rainbow Connection" (#74), and " Hakuna Matata" (#99). It was also nominated for AFI's 100 Years.100 Songs as one of 15 from Disney and one of 17 from an animated movie to be nominated. Peabo Bryson and Regina Belle performed it at the 65th Academy Awards and later won Best Song.Alan Menken's tentative title for the Magic Carpet ride was "The World at Your Feet." It was Tim Rice that changed it to "A Whole New World.".Fortunately, Tim Rice was brought in to help Menken finish the song on Ashman's behalf.

As he said hello I started to cry and cry. Well I got my results and the first person I called was him - again. I knew then that he was getting tired of me calling him, maybe I was wrong. I remembered when I was going to get the results of my re-test I called him up again and told him that I was going to get my results today and his reply was “so" and that everything will be as he explained. My marriage could be broken because of a stupid mistake and my life was on the line. Behold, the third day he messaged me i should go for a test that i will be negative. I message Him every 2hours for 2day and I knew he thought that I was crazy but I did care I needed a shoulder.

He told me about some materials i need to buy that he needed to cast the spell and I said OK. ![]() I was confused with what he was telling me, but I listened. I could not come to terms with what I was hearing but then I concluded it did not matter because I was so broken I just needed help. I finally got his email address: I emailed this man my story and he replied me immediately saying i should be calm and told me that everything will be OK. I could not let my wife know what I was going through. Two days later, I got a phone call from my friend and he told me about a person who is known by another friend, who can help me. I was so stupid by not using a condom I thought since he was an old school friend he was trustworthy. It was sort of a payback but a week later I was told by a friend that the person who I cheated with had the HIV-AIDS virus and did not tell me.

I was told about nebezial 's Blender Brush by General-EbonRose after I had made this tutorial. OMG Thank you so much for the DD! It's my first one ever! Thank you~! I recommend you create this custom brush using the brush tool then save that as a new custom brush and then set your Smudge Tool to that brush preset. Note: It should be able to work on any version of Photoshop. It's an excellent skill to have but at the same time, the more ways you find you can do something, the more ways you can create different pieces of work.Įither way, I hope this is of use to you all.

I know what you're thinking, SMUDGE TOOL!?

Wang JCY, Dorrell C, Ito CY, Inamitsu T, Guenechea G, Gan OI et al. Our findings suggest that long-term exposure of primitive human hematopoietic cells to elevated levels of human IL-3, GM-CSF and SF in vivo may deleteriously affect the stem cell compartment, while expanding terminal myelopoiesis. Human clonogenic progenitors are more prevalent in the blood of the transplanted growth factor-producing mice and this is accompanied by a very marked reduction of more primitive human cells in the BM. This phenotype is characterized by an enhancement of terminal human myelopoiesis and a matched suppression of terminal human erythropoiesis, with a slight reduction in human B-lymphopoiesis in the BM of the engrafted mice. Here, we show that nonobese diabetic severe combined immunodeficiency mice genetically engineered to produce ng/ml serum levels of human interleukin-3 (IL-3), granulocyte/macrophage-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and Steel factor (SF) display a complex phenotype when transplanted with primitive human bone marrow (BM) or fetal liver cells. In contrast, the effects of continuous exposure to such molecules have not been well investigated. These include demonstration of the ability of injected ‘human-specific’ hematopoietic growth factors to enhance the production of human cells at multiple levels of differentiation. Transplantation of immunodeficient mice with human hematopoietic cells has greatly facilitated studies of the earliest stages of human hematopoiesis.

In Tuesday letter to shareholders, Netflix declared its password-sharing crackdown a success, as well. We’ve got the most engaged audience so we believe we’re well positioned to capture some of that ad spend that shifts from linear to streaming,” he said. On the company’s fourth-quarter earnings call, Netflix co-CEO Greg Peters said he had high hopes for Netflix’s ability to snatch ad dollars from traditional TV competitors. On Tuesday, Netflix sounded a positive note on its growing advertising business. In October, Netflix said it raised the price of its premium ad-free plan to $22.99 while its one-stream basic plan rose to $11.99.Įarlier this month, Amy Reinhard, Netflix’s president of advertising, said Netflix’s ad tier hit more than 23 million monthly memberships. The plan is significantly cheaper than Netflix’s ad-free offerings, at $6.99 per month in the US. In the past year, the company implemented several initiatives aimed at adding subscribers, including a password-sharing crackdown that pushed password “borrowers” into creating their own subscriptions and introducing an advertising-supported subscription tier for $6.99.
