![]() If you like to share your laptop audio for things like films or music, you’ll be glad to know the Spectre can get loud. It sounds more like a TV than it does a laptop. (Its reverberation may be a bit much for audiophiles.) Meanwhile, the treble and mids are confident and full-bodied, adding to the sum of the audio to make a rich, dark sound signature. The bass on this thing is impressive, with a strong, clear output that’s a whole lot of fun for bassheads. Audio is loud and balancedĪs far as laptops go, the HP Spectre 14 nails its sound. Its brightness holds it back from being one of the best laptop displays, as HDR content won’t be as vivid, but for any other content, it looks fantastic. Its 3000 x 2000 resolution may be unusual, but it keeps everything looking sharp. Since it’s a 4:3 display, this relatively small laptop has a lot of desktop space to work with. It’s not especially bright at 370 nits, but its adaptive display temperature feature keeps it comfortable to look at without sacrificing the accuracy too much compared to generic night light settings. Its full P3 color gamut and excellent contrast on its OLED display are perfect for color-accurate work on the go. The HP Spectre 14 is a treat to work with. The display colors aren’t too shabby, either It doesn’t feel as natural as the MSI Summit E16 or the Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio, but it’s consistent and versatile once you get used to its style. If you like to vary your line weight, you’ll be glad to know the sensitivity curve felt responsive and accurate as I doodled away some sketches in Krita. Inputs were properly registered, my handwriting was legible to Windows Ink, and palm rejection was good once it was enabled. I had no trouble at all using the HP Pen with the Spectre 14. The buttons on the side are hard to press, but the nib is smooth on the Spectre 14’s display. The stylus is extremely light, weighing just nine grams, and its USB-C charging port is hidden behind a sliding mechanism. The Spectre 14 comes with the HP Pen MPP 2.0, which can be used with any Windows device that supports MPP 2.0 (this also means you can use any compatible stylus, such as a Microsoft Surface Pen, with the Spectre if you don’t like the HP Pen). Its toucscreen plays well with its stylusįor its dimensions, you'll be getting a high quality machine.Ģ-in-1s don’t quite feel complete without a great stylus to back them up you can write, draw, or just navigate your device in tablet mode. ![]() The laptop has a display with a 4:3 ratio, and that extra width makes it less awkward to hold the laptop vertically in tablet mode. You can use it normally, tented, or as a tablet. Its convertible form factor is well executed, with sturdy hinges that can stay put at any angle. If you’re used to MacBook trackpads, you’ll feel right at home on the hand-sized canvas (yes, it’s bigger than my hand). Meanwhile, the trackpad is massive, smooth, and highly responsive. Despite the small chassis, the keys themselves don’t feel small, but they are a bit shallow to keep the profile down. The keyboard is springy with a big kick to it, needing just the right amount of pressure to actuate to prevent accidental keystrokes without wearing out your fingers. The Spectre and the Envy have historically had amazing keyboards and trackpads, and this generation is no exception. The keyboard, trackpad, and ergonomics are phenomenal The display’s right side is also magnetized so the included stylus can snap onto the Spectre 14, iPad-style. (Most ultra-thin notebooks have removed the USB-A port altogether.) The audio jack lives on the rear left corner, and two USB-C ports populate the right corner and right side. While it’s not fingerprint-proof, its matte black surface is more resistant to them than most laptops.Īdditionally, the Spectre 14 figured out how to include a USB-A port by having an expandable ledge for peripherals while keeping the laptop as thin as possible. There’s no other laptop that quite looks like the Spectre, and the all-metal chassis is sleek, thin, and rigid as a laptop should be. The rear two corners are cut at 45-degree angles and have ports on them. Its edges and corners are rounded and chamfered, making it comfortable to lay my wrists on the laptop. It is certainly a great choice for digital artists.Ī lot of laptops lately have been pushing for sharper, edgier designs, but the Spectre 14 takes the opposite approach.

Some of them I’ve stayed in touch with, but others I have completely removed. I was in a different place in my life.ĭid you stay in touch with your friends or did you completely detach yourself from it? I just didn’t pay attention to it, I didn’t watch or follow it even though a lot of my friends were still in the business. There wasn’t social media at the time as it was just starting out so I didn’t post anything. I didn’t put anything on it, I literally just woke up one day and said, ‘ok I don’t want to do this anymore’, so I called up my agent and cancelled everything I had booked and never went back to it. I mean, I like sex.ĭid you always think you would go back ? I miss being able to express my artistic energy through porn. So I left, I went to college, now I am going to graduate school, I just had a baby - but really I just miss working. It's like a natural, human-nature thing to do. Any working mum who left to have a baby would want to go back to her work. Look, I love them and bless their hearts, but that’s so silly. ![]() They think it’s the biggest mistake of my life. So how did they feel when you said you were going to come back to it? How old were you when you did your first scene?ĭid you find some of the decisions you made and things that you agreed to do at that time were affected by how young you were? When I went and shot my first scene, I thought to myself, what am I doing? I left for five or six months and then I came back and went full force. I took some polaroids for them and then a few days later they just called me and I had all this work booked. They were the girls who had been around for 30 or 40 years or something. It was in a crummy building with three men and three officers with huge books of photos of girls. There was just this small black and white ad that said ‘nude model needed’, and I was like ‘Ok, that’s something different.’ So, I went down there and met the people. In 2001, I saw an advert in a newspaper when I was reading the ad section. And somehow I stumbled into this business. I came from a small town in California when I was 18 years old, living with my parents, and I just wanted freedom. I don’t really have a solid answer for that. You know, that is the million dollar question. ![]() A Bruniton™ non-reflective black coating provides superior corrosion and wear resistance.

We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. The old has passed away behold, the new has come. ![]() Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. Even though we once regarded Christ according to the flesh, we regard him thus no longer. From now on, therefore, we regard no one according to the flesh. 2 Corinthians 5:14–21įor the love of Christ controls us, because we have concluded this: that one has died for all, therefore all have died and he died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves but for him who for their sake died and was raised. Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me.” And behold, Jesus met them and said, “Greetings!” And they came up and took hold of his feet and worshiped him. See, I have told you.” So they departed quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples. Then go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead, and behold, he is going before you to Galilee there you will see him. He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. But the angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. And for fear of him the guards trembled and became like dead men. His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow. And behold, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled back the stone and sat on it. Now after the Sabbath, toward the dawn of the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb.

If I were to order again, I would just go with the standard 4 1/2" pockets as I don't feel that it would be any tougher to play given the pocket angles.Item: 172381586803 8" Diamond Pool Table pro am. She was really rattling the balls in the corner pocket, but honestly didn't take her too long to adjust. One of my wife's female friends who is a past state champion, has started to come over to practice, as she doesn't get much practice on a Diamond table except for tournaments, and had a really tough time against my wife and I for awhile. Pockets are bigger at 4 3/4, but you actually have to be more accurate with your shot. I could be wrong but I feel this increased angle actually helps to make the balls rattle in the corner pocket compared to what you would get with the standard 4 1/2" pockets and angles. It's only a quarter inch, and what is never mentioned is that to get that quarter inch, I think they just reangle the corner facings to get the corner opening for the league cut, as my pocket angles are 2 1/2 deg different than what everyone quotes for Diamond pocket angles. To be honest, not really sure that it made it that much easier to play. I got the league cut on my new Professional last year, as my wife and I are not top level players anyway, and we have a lot of company over to play, that are just casual players. ![]() Still, the big Katana shared some of Busa's upgrades in the form of clear lens turn signals with yellow bulbs.Įven the lower part of the belly pan was in a different color, which evoked some of the older Hayabusa liveries. The 2006 model year introduced voluptuous shapes that sort of harked back to the Hayabusa, but the overall character of the middleweight classic sport remained unmistakable. In 2006, Suzuki launched the GSX-750F Katana, a sports motorcycle, which at the time of its release was no longer sold in all the markets it used to, but the bike was still getting niftier. full description and technical specifications Combined with a six-speed manual transmission and a dry weight of 200 kg (441 lbs), the bike reached a top speed of 207 kph (106 mph). The 2006 Suzuki GSX-600F Katana took its thrust from a 599cc four-stroke four-cylinder air/oil-cooled engine that developed an output power of 86 hp at 11,000 rpm and 60 Nm (44 lb-ft) of torque at 7,950 rpm. It also featured a large-capacity fuel tank, an aluminum passenger grab bar, teardrop-shaped rear-view mirrors, and an adjustable front brake lever. ![]() The bodywork featured an aerodynamic fairing in a compact design with a comfortable and sporting position, topped by an attractive sporty look with twin headlights. ![]() Like the 750cc Katana, the 2006 Suzuki GSX-600F Katana received new turn signals with yellow bulbs and clean lenses for a more modern look while remaining powered by a carbureted air/oil-cooled engine with plenty of agility left for the urban jungle and was more than capable at providing thrills around each bend of a countryside road. The smaller of the two Katana bikes retained the same sporty, street-ready attire, with fluid flowing shapes and eye-pleasing liveries, which blended in both track-inspired themes and road-focused head-turning factor. In 2006, the Japanese manufacturer released the GSX-600F Katana, a sports motorcycle identical to its 750cc sister, differentiated by the 600 stickers found on the tail section. The power, combined with a six-speed manual transmission and a weight of 219 kg (483 lbs), pushed to a top speed of 207 kph (129 mph). Jumping into the power department, the 2007 Suzuki GSX-600F Katana was powered by a 599cc four-stroke four-cylinder air/oil-cooled engine, with a power output of 86 hp at 11,000 rpm and 60 Nm (44 lb-ft) of torque available at 7,950 rpm. The attractive stainless steel four-in-one exhaust system tuned for enhanced low and mid-range performance featured a catalyzer just for the Californian model for lower emissions. The bike still packed the reliable air/oil-cooled engine with the valve timing tuned for a strong low-mid rpm range and the Mikuni carburetors still in place. The design cues remained the same, with minor updates that made the bike stand in line with its modern counterparts, such as the iconic dual-oval headlights and the matching side vents were still the unmistakable trademark of the GSX-600F Katana. The bike retained the features which made it popular, with the resemblance to the sporty 600cc Gixxer, which was likely the most important factor. full description and technical specificationsĮven though it was no longer sold in all the markets where it used to, the GSX-600F Katana has lived enough to see its 2007 model year. In the power department, the 2007 Suzuki GSX-750F Katana took its thrust from a 748cc four-stroke four-cylinder air/oil-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 92 hp at 10,500 rpm and 66 Nm (48 lb-ft) of torque at 8,500 rpm. The braking power was achieved by a couple of two-piston calipers with two 290 mm discs mounted on the front wheel and a two-piston caliper that squeezed a single 250 mm disc mounted on the rear wheel. On the rear, it packed a link-type suspension with a fully adjustable spring pre-load and damping force and a four-way adjustable rebound. The bike’s chassis consisted of a double cradle steel pipe frame which featured a 41 mm three-way adjustable telescopic fork on the front. The bike featured fluid rounded shapes, with a lower part of the fairing finished in a different color for an eye-pleasing two-tone livery, and the oval white-lens front turn signals were more eloquent than anything. The similarities with the Gixxer series were overshadowed by the resemblance of the bike with the Hayabusa model. The machine was almost unchanged from the previous iteration, which meant the bike was still powered by an air/oil-cooled engine, carbureted fuel delivery, and still offered solid street ability. In 2007, Suzuki launched the GSX-750F Katana, a sports motorcycle that proved its longevity through strong demand in the market. Miyahara, Tomoo Nakatsuji, Hiroshi Wada, Takehiko Nature of the absorption line and of its splitting are discussed.Ĭircular dichroism spectra of uridine derivatives: ChiraSac study. The MCD was identified as the temperature independent paramagnetic mixing effect. Approximately the same splitting was extracted from the absorption spectrum. Splitting of value 960 cm-1 was revealed in the MCD spectrum. Absorption line at 19400 cm-1 and luminescent line at 18200 cm-1 were observed. Absorption and photoluminescence spectra were also recorded. Diameter of nanoparticles varied from 2.3 to 4.5 nm. Magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) of water-soluble CdTe nanoparticles was observed in the visible spectral range for the first time. Magnetic circular dichroism of CdTe nanoparticles Structural and Magnetic Properties of molar concentration. In contrast to Jsp-d, the nearest neighbor interaction JNN estimated from the steps in the photoluminescence peak was found to be independent of the well width. The observed features are well explained by a model assuming the interface disorder within some thickness near the interface. It was found that the latter effect is much larger than theoretically predicted. The decrease is partly due to the penetration of the electron and the hole wave functions into the non- magnetic CdMgTe barrier layers, and partly due to the k-dependence of the exchange interaction. The magnitude of Jsp-d estimated from the observed Zeeman splitting was found to decrease as the quantum well width was decreased. The sp-d exchange interaction Jsp-d and the exchange interaction between the nearest neighbor Mn ions JNN were studied by magneto-photoluminescence spectra of excitons in CdMnTe/CdMgTe quantum wells in pulsed high magnetic fields up to 45 T. [Figure not available: see fulltext.Įxchange interactions in CdMnTe/CdMgTe quantum wells under high magnetic fields The frequency dependent conductivity spectra are found to obey the power law. The temperature dependent relaxation time is found to obey the Arrhenius law having activation energy 0.4 eV for Fe doped samples. The dielectric relaxation peaks are observed in the spectra of imaginary part of dielectric constant. In order to estimate the anti-ferromagnetic coupling among the doped Fe atoms, an M-T measurement at 500 Oe has been carried out, and the Curie-Weiss temperature θ of the samples has been estimated from the inverse of susceptibility versus temperature plots. The temperature dependent magnetization (M-T) measurement under zero field cooled and field cooled conditions has also ruled out the presence of ferromagnetic component in the samples at room temperature as well as low temperature. The magnetic field dependent magnetization measurement of the doped samples indicates the presence of anti-ferromagnetic order. Nanoparticles of cadmium selenide ( CdSe) and Fe (5% and 10%) doped CdSe have been synthesized by soft chemical route and found to have cubic structure. Magnetic and dielectric study of Fe-doped CdSe nanoparticlesĭas, Sayantani Banerjee, Sourish Bandyopadhyay, Sudipta Sinha, Tripurari Prasad Meanwhile, the intensity of each optical absorption can be decreased when the temperature T increases and the core radius Rc is fixed, and this is because the Fermi-Dirac distribution function of the corresponding hole states will increase as the increase of the temperature T. ![]() The intensity of each optical absorption can be considerably enhanced by increasing the core radius Rc when the temperature T is fixed, it is due to the increase of their optical transition matrix element. The absorption spectra of CdSe/CdS core-shell nanowires at the Γ point are also studied in the magnetic field when the temperature T is considered, and we find there are only two peaks will arise if the core radius Rc and the temperature T increase. The degenerate hole states are split by the magnetic field, and the split energies will increase when |Jh | increases from 1/2 to 7/2, while they are almost not influenced by the change of the core radius Rc. In addition, we find the three highest hole states at the Γ point are almost localized in the CdSe core and the energies of the hole states in CdSe/CdS core-shell nanowires can be enhanced greatly when the core radius Rc increases and the total radius R is fixed. ![]() The electronic structures of CdSe/CdS core-shell nanowires are calculated based on the effective-mass theory, and it is found that the hole states in CdSe/CdS core-shell nanowires are strongly mixed, which are very different from the hole states in CdSe or CdS nanowires. Electronic structure and intersubband magnetoabsorption spectra of CdSe/CdS core-shell nanowires ![]() ![]() These screws are pretty big, so I do recommend predrilling to help prevent the wood from splitting when driving them. I measured the overall height of the pieces from step 1. Then, I repeated this process two get two identical sides. Once these rails were together, I used a large clamp to press everything together and checked for a consistent height from side to side.ĭepending on the length you cut your dowels and the depth you drill your holes, your overall size may vary some, but mine ended up being about 20”. Then, I could flip the board with the dowels installed upside down and use a rubber mallet to tap them into the holes on the other board. I found it easiest to glue the dowels into the one of the boards first, then add glue into the holes of the other. Getting everything to line up is a little tricky and will require some patience. Then, I applied wood glue into the holes and inserted the dowels. So these ended up being about 15 15/16” long. NOTE: The dowels were exactly 48” long, so in order to get three equal length dowels from each piece, I had to cut them SLIGHTLY under 16” to account for the blade kerf when making the cuts. Then, I sanded these pieces really well, and cut my dowels to roughly 16” long. Once all the holes were drilled, I pulled out my pocket hole jig and drilled 1 ½″ pocket holes into the ends of the 2×4 and one on each end across the top side of the 2×2 piece. You could use a stop collar to be extra precise if you wanted, but it’s not super critical as long as you are pretty consistent. I drilled until the cutter head was flush with the top of the board for each hole (it was about ⅜″ deep). Once all my dowel locations were marked, I used a ¾” forstener bit to drill out each location. I clamped the top and bottom pieces together and transferred the marks to each piece so they’d match perfectly. Then, I set my Multi-Mark to 4 ¼” and made several marks out from this center point down the length of the boards all 4 ¼” apart. NOTE: For each side panel of this bed, to make things easier, I used an odd number of dowels so that I could start in the center and go out from there marking where my dowels would go. Then, I marked the center (17 ½″ from each end). I set it to mark ¾” offset and drew a line down the middle of each of these pieces on the narrow side. I used this handy Kreg Multi-Mark tool for making most of my marks. Prefer to print? Grab the printable building plans here! I began assembling the side panels first by cutting a piece of 2×2 and a piece of 2×4 to 35″ long for the top and bottom (You need one of each PER SIDE, so two of each total). |
