12/24/2023 0 Comments Audioquest nightowl cable![]() ![]() Plan on spending a few hours with these headphones – a quick audition ain’t gonna cut it, son. So spark up your something, turn down the lights, and cue up some Mobb Deep…or whatever you listen to. The lows and highs seem more accentuated when compared to the performance of the Nighthawk, and even without the soundstage, I’m still won over.Ĭomfort! Like the Nighthawk, these babies were made for longer listening sessions. The hallmark of the Nightowl has to be it’s dynamic sound. The music is still realistic, bordering on immersive, but not as intoxicating as the delivery from the Nighthawk. Despite ample depth and some plucky placement, the closed-back design of this headphone inevitably limits the sense of soundstage. It should come as no surprise that the Nightowl fails to match its semi-open counterpart in this department. Ultra-fine details may still be missing in action, but by-and-large, this is still a very competent and pleasing high end. Nowhere near bright, the high end on the Nightowl remains relaxed, but with just the slightest bit more detail than what I heard on the Nighthawk. Though the mids here have a tendency to be overshadowed by the luscious low end, the detail is still there in spades – perfect for those tracks that eschew lows and highs for emphasis on the mids. MidsĬlean and articulate, this is the same midrange that I fell in love with on the Nighthawk. Thanks to the closed-back design, the Nightowl does offer more bass than the Nighthawk – the low end is punctuated by real “oomph” that compliments bassy tracks. ![]() There’s ample control at play here, nipping bleed in the bud, and generally delivering the goods. Low Endĭetailed and resonant, the low end on the Nightowl is marked by an overall aura of clarity. These cans seem clean enough to deliver <0.2% or even <0.1% THD. Finally, Total Harmonic Distortion isn’t listed by the manufacturer, but I’m guessing it’s really, really low. Volume is decent – the relatively low 99 dB SPL may not impress on paper, but it’s more than enough where the Nightowl is concerned. Impedance is a low 25 ohms – perfect for portable devices like a smartphone or my FiiO X5 II. SpecsĪudioQuest doesn’t offer specs for frequency range, but I’d place it somewhere around 12-30,000 Hz. A built-in mic and remote offer compatibility for just about everything but iPhone. The thick no-nonsense cable utilizes dual input, and measures a modest 4.25 ft (1.3 m). The whole kit arrives inside a large, heavy-duty pleather case.īuild-wise, this headphone remains nearly identical to its semi-open variant there’s still a suspension-style headband, deep and comfortable padding on the earcups, and a sense of resilience you just can’t shake. There’s also a user guide, soft carrying pouches for the headphone and the detachable cable, and a 1/4” stereo adapter. The Nightowl comes with two sets of earpads – one suede, one pleather. Same price, same good looks, but where does the sound differ? And is it worth your hard earned cheddar? Let me drop some knowledge. Today I’m following up with a complimentary review of the $699 AudioQuest Nightowl – the closed back alternative to the Nighthawk. A few days ago I got a chance to sit down with the semi-open AudioQuest Nighthawk Carbon. ![]()

The ham bats buff now has a unique sprite instead of reusing the life drains sprite ![]() The wire sprites are now softer (The colors are closer to eachother in terms of color pretty much) The Wolf costume now has a tail and now covers your face like the fox costume The player werewolf transformation also has a tail Vanilla Tweaks is a small mod that changes and rebalances some things from Terraria.Notable changes include: -Cool set bonuses for weak armor/vanity sets, such as Eskimo, Pharaoh, Obsidian, Gladiator etc. These subtle changes can make a big difference in the way the game is played, and can be easily implemented to improve the overall experience. The sprite for wolves now has traits that were on the 1.3 and below sprite Vanilla Tweaks are changes made to the base Minecraft game enhancing little optical and gameplay details. This one has small animation tweaks to the Guide, Demolitionist, Merchant and Arms Dealer. ![]() The sprite for being frozen has been updated as the original looks kinda meh A collection of texture packs that enhance vanilla terraria. if you are looking for something specific like that id recommend downloading those packs! It should also be mentioned that there are packs out there that do things that this pack does such as giving werewolves tails and making inferno potion transparent. (pretty much this pack is full of random tweaks ive thought of making to some sprites in terraria but i didnt want to upload as a standalone pack.) Credit to Terrasteel and their '_ minutes of Useless terraria information' Series! for pointing out the fact the multicolor wrench has no yellow in it and the fact the wolf sprite was updated! which is why i decided to change them Some of these changes were actually implemented by Re-Logic in the 1.4 update Those are described with crossed out text, and Vanilla Tweaks only applies them to the 1.3 version. There's no particular theme to them, they are just random ideas. Changes small things about terraria for the fun of it. It pretty much contains a whole ton of different little tweaks. ![]() 12/24/2023 0 Comments Power of silence after break up![]() ![]() Neutralize your ex’s exhausted mental state. ![]() No matter what you want to accomplish, radio silence with your ex will help you achieve three things: It can help you if you committed a lot of post-breakup mistakes and it can also help you if you’re struggling to regain power after the break-up. The power of silence after the break-up can help you in many ways. We’ll go into detail and talk about the times when silence could work in your favor. In this article, we’ll talk about the power of silence after the break-up. They don’t have what it takes to remain loyal because they don’t return because of love. Exes who come back out of boredom or convenience leave again. Very seldom do exes come back just because it’s convenient to them. Do the things that make you happy and keep in mind that people don’t change their feelings about the person they left unless something hurts them and forces them to think and feel differently. So while you’re waiting for the power of silence after the break-up to affect your girlfriend or boyfriend the way it needs to, focus on detachment. You may as well use the post-breakup time in a way that promotes recovery and helps you become the best version of yourself.ĭo that and I guarantee that you won’t even want your ex back anymore. You especially shouldn’t put your happiness in your ex’s hands if your ex is happy and having fun without you.īy waiting for an ex to have an epiphany, you’ll essentially put your life on hold for so long that you’ll get over your ex and eventually regret wasting your life. Silence may indeed help your ex run into trouble and reflect on the relationship, but nobody can guarantee that your ex will come back. So whatever you do, don’t pin your hopes only on the power of silence after the break-up. If they doubt themselves a lot, they can essentially realize that their ex is happy and they’re not and that they need to get back with their ex to rely on their ex before their ex moves on and doesn’t want them back. This is because difficulties in life create anxiety, fear, regret, and nostalgia and motivate dumpers to doubt their biggest decisions in life. He or she could notice that you had some great personality traits that he or she took for granted and that you’re actually a good person to date.īut for that to happen, your ex has to learn some important lessons first! Your ex has to go through a self-reflecting negative experience and encounter a big issues. Simply put, if your ex is not as happy as he or she was with you, chances are that your ex will realize your worth and become nostalgic. I’m referring to the stressful, painful, and gut-wrenching circumstances that make your ex doubt his or her actions and regret dumping you.Ī few examples of events that could improve the way your ex thinks about you are rebound relationships, losing a family member, getting fired, and falling into depression. That just wouldn’t motivate the dumper to think about you and miss you. By “circumstances,” I’m not talking about the dumper’s new and exciting life and the people he or she spends time with. ![]() That would be too good to be true as the return of your ex strongly depends on the circumstances occurring in your ex’s life. They don’t, however, guarantee that your ex will return as some relationship experts claim. They both help you recover from the post-breakup blues and provide you with a clearer understanding of your past relationship. Time and silence after the breakup go hand in hand. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() He has 12 touchdowns in 12 games as the 49ers' starting running back since Week 8, all wins for the 49ers. That marked eight consecutive games for CMC with a touchdown, which is the longest streak of the Pro Bowler's career. That mistake nullified the sack and three plays later, San Francisco running back Christian McCaffrey was in the end zone for the go-ahead touchdown on the first play of the fourth quarter. However, a different Cowboys player's gaffe ended up turning the tide for the 49ers.Ĭowboys defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence and linebacker Leighton Vander Esch combined to sack Purdy in a critical spot - on third-and-eight on the Dallas 20-, but Cowboys safety Donovan Wilson gave 49ers tight end George Kittle a hug, taking him to the ground relatively early in the play. Maher tacked on a 25-yard field goal that left the score tied at nine entering the third quarter. Robbie Gould's kick sailed right through the uprights, though, giving San Francisco a three-point lead at the break, 9-6. With the final drive of the half, the 49ers had some curious clock management, and ultimately had to attempt a 50-yard field goal on third down as time expired. Pollard was later carted to the locker room and ruled out with a high-ankle sprain. As Pollard limped into the medical tent, Prescott forced a throw into double coverage and was intercepted for the second time in the game. After converting on fourth-and-4 from the Niners' 35-yard line, Prescott checked down underneath to Tony Pollard, who had his ankle rolled up on two San Francisco defenders. Late in the first half, disaster struck for Dallas. He would go on to make his final two kicks of the game, both field goals from 25 and 43 yards out. Cowboys kicker Brett Maher, though, fresh off setting an NFL record by missing four extra point tries against the Buccaneers last week, had his extra point blocked. ![]() On the ensuing possession, Dallas drove 74 yards on 14 plays, with Dalton Schultz finding the end zone on a play-action pass from Prescott. The Niners began their drive on the Dallas 21-yard line, but the Cowboys' defensive line continually got pressure on Brock Purdy and held San Francisco to a field goal. Prescott was looking for Michael Gallup on a comeback route on third-and-long, but Deommodore Lenoir jumped the route and picked it off. ![]() San Francisco got the scoring started late in the first quarter after being set up with a short field in the wake of a Dak Prescott interception. San Francisco forced two Dak Prescott interceptions, and their offense turned both of those into field goals, critical in a game they won by only seven points. While Purdy is re-writing the history books with his play as the final pick of the 2022 NFL Draft, the reason the 49ers ended the Cowboys season on Sunday is because of their defense. On the other side, the Cowboys run the longest streak of playoff appearances in NFL history without a conference title game appearance to 12. It's a historical result as rookie Brock Purdy will now become the fourth quarterback drafted in the 6th round or later, or undrafted, to reach a Conference Championship in his 1st season as a starter, joining Dieter Brock (1985 ), Kurt Warner (1999), and Tom Brady (2001). It was an ugly, back-and-forth struggle for all 60 minutes - lacking in the beauty that comprised the Dallas Cowboys-San Francisco 49ers playoff showdowns of the 80's and 90's that had Joe Montana, Steve Young, Roger Craig, and Jerry Rice on one side and Troy Aikman, Emmitt Smith, and Michael Irvin on the other - and as expected, the 49ers did what they have done in each of their previous divisional round showdowns: done what they needed to do to advance to the NFC Championship Game, this time winning by a 19-12 score. ![]() ![]() When you turn the key, you might hear the starter motor engage, but since the timing belt operates the crank and camshaft, it will not turn over. If the timing belt has broken inside, the engine will not be able to turn over or ignite. Since the timing belt is so critical to the operation of your vehicle, if you notice this warning sign, you should contact a mechanic as soon as possible. This warning sign may also be an indication of low oil pressure or the engine not having the proper amount of lubrication. When the timing belt starts to wear out, it may create a ticking sound inside the motor. The camshaft operates the cylinder head valves and rocker arm assembly, which sends fuel into the combustion chamber and expels burnt gases out of the exhaust manifold. ![]() The crankshaft powers the engine’s connecting rods which are attached to pistons inside the combustion chamber. The timing belt is attached by way of a series of pulleys to the engine’s crank and cam shaft. Listed below are a few common symptoms that might indicate that your timing belt is wearing out or has broken – which will require a local ASE certified mechanic to replace the timing belt and inspect other internal engine components for damage. Most automotive manufacturers have a predetermined recommendation on when you should replace the timing belt, but there are a few warning indicators that a problem exists. Generally, timing chains last longer than timing belts, with some rated to last the lifetime of the car. When an engine has a larger bore and stroke, most automotive manufacturers utilize a timing chain system that replaces the rubber belt with a metal chain. The timing belt is commonly found in cars and SUVs with smaller displacement engines. Without a fully functioning timing belt, your engine will not run. However, it is subject to incredible forces inside your motor and will need to be replaced eventually. ![]() It's commonly manufactured out of high-quality rubber with nylon-reinforced cords inside to extend the life of the belt. The timing belt is located under a timing cover and is in the front of the engine. ![]() The timing belt is an internal engine component that rotates the engine’s cam and crankshaft in sync and ensures each cylinder fires at the appropriate time. ![]() 12/23/2023 0 Comments Stephanie lazarus interview![]() 38 pistol, once into her heart, her back another shot struck her in the chest.

Ten days later the missing BMW was found on Balboa Boulevard with keys in the ignition. Unfortunately the maid never called police.

Times reporter Joel Rubin told an NPR reporter.Ī quick canvas of the luxury neighborhood led Detective Mayer to a maid who worked nearby at a condo in the area. "At the time detectives focused on a theory that two men tried to break into the victim's house and was in the process of robbing the house when Sherri came home," L.A.

Assorted documents from a drawer was also dumped on the floor. It appeared whoever committed the crime had surprisingly attacked the woman that triggered an intense struggle: broken glass was scattered across the floor and a TV entertainment center was smashed into pieces. He told detective Lyle Mayer his wife had been home alone after taking off from work due to a strained back muscle while exercising the day before. John Ruetten told police he knew something awfully wrong when he notice the garage door open and the silver two-door BMW he bought for his wife as an engagement gift was conspiciously missing. Homicide detectives soon arrived with CSI team to search for evidence. Ruetten had married the beautiful, athletic, six-feet tall nurse only three months earlier. She was lying on the floor with bullet holes in her body. On the evening of February 24, 1986, engineer John Ruetten arrived home around 6:p.m in the Van Nuys section of Los Angeles California and discovered the lifeless, bloody remains of his 29-year-old wife identified as Sherri Ruetten Rasmussen. ![]() ![]() ![]() Murder, Madness, a Bite Mark, a Shooting, And Betrayal Behind a Blood-Stained Badge Inside LAPD By Clarence Walker ![]() 12/23/2023 0 Comments Anydeskfor chrome![]() The service will therefore use cookies to store this information on your browser.

On gusty days with the wind at my back and the braking system turned down low, it’s not out of the realm of possibility to see fifty yard casts, maybe even longer with the right bait. ![]() I have mine paired up with a Lew’s Fritts Perfect Cranking Rod with medium power and a moderate action, and let me tell you, this reel absolutely bombs. In this role, the Abu Garcia Revo X Gen 4 Cranking performs admirably. In a day full of chuckin’ and windin’, burning the banks and making hundreds of casts, you need something that’ll get your bait out there without much effort, or a fear of backlash. Everything works well, feels good, and generally feels to be an excellently constructed reel.Īs a cranking reel specifically, you obviously want the ability to really hoon a bait down water. Closing the bail after a cast feels solid and grounded, with seemingly no undesirable movement to be found. Audible clicks are heard when adjusting both, making it easy to tell just how tight or loose your reel is running. Everything is easily adjustable on this reel, with simple dial adjustments handling both the drag system, located near the retrieve handle, and the brake system, which sits on the opposite side of the reel. The Revo X Gen 4 Cranking has all of the features you’d ask for in a good casting reel lightweight alloy frame, a total of 7 bearings combined with the Carbon Matrix hybrid drag system for silky smooth retrieves in a fight, and a handy MagTrax brake system. Get ready to read some seriously high praise, because this reel deserves every word. After about 30+ hours on the water with the REVO4 X-W-L in a 5.4:1 gear ratio, I have been consistently impressed at every turn, particularly when contrasted with the low retail price of only $99USD. After trying out the speed-retrieve version of the Abu Garcia Revo X Gen 4, the REVO4 X-HS in a 7.3:1 ratio, I liked what I saw enough in terms of performance to look into buying the slower gear ratio version. I would typically tie my crankbaits on spinning gear, with the moderate action of the rods and the slower gear ratio of my spinning reels making it easier to haul in good-sized, head-shaking bass.

To zoom in to 100%, press Control + 1 (Win) or Command + 1 (Mac). To see the full effect of the Unsharp Mask and to prevent oversharpening the image, you may want to zoom into the image at 100%. Use this method if you want to sharpen the entire image without needing a lot of control. This method gives you some control but does most of the work for you. ![]() This method sharpens the image by “detecting the edges” of the objects in an image (the tool guesses the edges by locating pixels that differ by a large amount from neighboring pixels) and then increases the contrast between the object and the surrounding area. Now, the effect has been digitalized and is available with a few clicks on Photoshop. The Unsharp Mask filter is based on a technique used in the darkroom to help sharpen film photos. Then you can fix up the minor blurriness using these methods. There is no way for Photoshop to guess what details to put into the picture if there isn’t enough information in the original, so it’s important to start with a relatively sharp photo. However, it’s important to note that unblurring an image is only useful for slightly blurred photos. These techniques are non-destructive and don’t reduce the quality of the pictures. Here are my three favorites methods to get rid of the blur and bring out the important details in images. Whether you didn’t get your photo settings right, your subject was moving too fast, or you’re using an image from online and need to sharpen up the details, there are many ways to unblur a photo in Photoshop. ![]() 12/23/2023 0 Comments Adolescence 2 rita dove analysis![]() ![]() Next Section Quotes Previous Section Glossary How To Cite in MLA Format Anonymous "Rita Dove: Poems Themes".
