![]() That said, we recommend the USB-C cable for most people. Oh, and we’ve owned multiples of this exact Powerline II cable for years, so we can speak to its quality and longevity personally.Īnker also offers a USB-A version that we tested, and if you don’t have any USB-C chargers, that would be a suitable alternative. This is crucial, since cables that lack Apple’s certification may not work as well, and may even damage your device - so buying from a reputable, MFi Certified company is much preferred to the cables you get in the pharmacy checkout line. Most importantly, the Powerline II is also MFi Certified, which means it’s met Apple’s quality testing for the iPhone, iPad, AirPods and other products. The Lightning end is small enough to fit in the opening of all the phone cases we tried, and both ends fit snugly into their respective sockets, without wiggling or loosening in their housing. ![]() It’s flexible enough to easily coil loosely while also being stiff enough that it won’t fall apart and tangle in your bag as easily as some flimsier cables, and it even comes with a small Velcro cable tie. We stress tested the cables with some hard tugs and some tight bends, and it felt like it would hold up well over time, where other cables might break down and fray at the ends. The Powerline II uses the same rubber shielding as most other cables, albeit a bit thicker than Apple’s offering, with stronger joints. The 6-foot cable does come in three colors, though: white, gray and black - alongside a 3-foot version that comes in white and black.

![]() Instead, Office 2011 features a new Mac version of Outlook (pictured). One result of this is the discarding of the Entourage email application, a poor relative to Outlook that attempted to be unnecessarily cool and hip rather than functioning on the basics such as managing emails. The various applications that comprise Microsoft Office: Mac have changed between the two versions, with Microsoft making a concerted effort to align the later release with the Windows versions, Microsoft Office 2010. Naturally, talking about upgrading is a very different thing from actually upgrading – but what will you get when the change is made? Differences Between Microsoft Office: Mac 20 Considering the differences between the two versions, the constituent applications and the revisions to the user interface in Office 2011, this is an option that you should be pursuing. The task of upgrading your Mac will probably be a priority over upgrading your copy of Office, but if you purchased Microsoft Office: Mac 2008 in the months prior to the release of Office 2011, you should have the chance to upgrade to the later version for free. Sadly, though, Microsoft Office: Mac 2011 isn’t compatible with PowerPC Macs, which means that only newer, post-2006 devices will be able to run the software. Meanwhile, Microsoft Office: Mac 2011 makes the effort to deliver a much better level of integration with Windows versions of the software without looking like it has just been re-bundled. In many ways the older version feels like a token effort, and more importantly runs like a Windows application that has been retooled to look like OS X software, something that many Mac users won’t be that happy about. ![]() There are various reasons why you should upgrade from Microsoft Office: Mac 2008 to the 2011 version. Now superseded by Microsoft Office: Mac 2011, the 2008 version nevertheless remains a popular choice and many people still use it.ĭon’t you think it is time to upgrade? Same Title, Very Different Package ![]() What there is instead is Microsoft Office: Mac 2008, the Apple Mac equivalent of Office 2007. The fact is, there is no Office 2007 for Mac.

In 1953, Soviet scientists showed that triboluminescence caused by peeling a roll of an unidentified Scotch brand tape in a vacuum can produce X-rays. Instead the katakana version of the word Mending Tape is used, i.e., メンディングテープ, along with the familiar green and yellow tartan branding. ![]() In Japan, "Magic Tape" is a trademark of Kuraray for a hook-and-loop fastener system similar to Velcro. Magic Tape can be written upon with pen, pencil, or marker comes in permanent and removable varieties and resists drying out and yellowing. This quality makes it popular for gift-wrapping. It appears frosty on the roll, yet is invisible on paper. Invented and introduced in 1961, it is the original matte finish tape. Magic Tape, also known as Magic Transparent Tape, is a brand within the Scotch Tape family of adhesive tapes made by 3M, sold in distinctive plaid packaging. In the late 1960s, the Scotch theme was also applied to 3M's all-weather polyurethane Tartan track and the company's artificial grass, Tartan Turf. In 1996, 3M exited the magnetic tape business, selling its assets to Quantegy (which is a spin-off of Ampex). ![]() ![]() Besides using Scotch as a prefix in its brand names ( Scotchgard, Scotchlite, and Scotch-Brite), the company also used the Scotch name for its (mainly professional) audiovisual magnetic tape products, until the early 1990s when the tapes were branded solely with the 3M logo. The Scotch brand, Scotch Tape and Magic Tape are registered trademarks of 3M. The familiar tartan design, a take on the well-known Wallace tartan, was introduced in 1945. Scotty McTape, a kilt-wearing cartoon boy, was the brand's mascot for two decades, first appearing in 1944. The bodyshop painter became frustrated with the sample masking tape and exclaimed, "Take this tape back to those Scotch bosses of yours and tell them to put more adhesive on it!" The name was soon applied to the entire line of 3M tapes. ![]() The brand name Scotch came about around 1925 while Richard Drew was testing his first masking tape to determine how much adhesive he needed to add. The use of the term Scotch in the name was a pejorative meaning " parsimonious" in the 1920s and 1930s. The Scotch brand includes many different constructions (backings, adhesives, etc.) and colors of tape. Modern Scotch brand acetate tape packaging showing the distinctive tartan designĪlthough it is a trademark and a brand name, Scotch tape is sometimes used as a generic term. ![]() Some clean diets advise eliminating groups of foods like dairy, wheat, or refined sugars. Because of its strong association with health, clean eating was viewed favorably according to another survey of college students even though it produced emotional distress (experiencing negative emotions if not able to follow the diet) and functional impairment (having a rigid eating schedule, ignoring natural hunger cues to eat more or less than is scheduled, interference with school work). In a survey of teenagers and young adults, though 71% defined clean eating as a healthy positive approach, a small percentage felt it was unhealthy due to its restrictive nature. ![]() 64% surveyed said they try to choose foods made with clean ingredients, defined as “not artificial or synthetic,” “organic,” “fresh,” or “natural.”Ĭlean eating can take on a different meaning when it introduces unrealistic expectations.Almost half of those surveyed considered themselves to be clean eaters, with “eating foods that aren’t highly processed,” “eating fresh produce,” “eating organic foods,” and “eating foods with a simple ingredients list” as the most cited definitions.It found that “clean eaters” eat foods that are not highly processed, such as fresh or organic fruits and vegetables, and food products with a short, simple ingredients list. Ī survey by the International Food Information Council (IFIC) helps to further define consumer beliefs about clean eating. A survey of more than 1,200 participants ages 14-24 years found that 55% were familiar with the term clean eating from social media, other online sources, or their peers. The concept is popular among younger consumers active with social media, which is the prime platform for celebrities, bloggers, and other high-profile personalities who chronicle their clean eating meals and recipes. In summary, clean eating seemingly promotes health and wellness. It may also be associated with terms like plant-based, grass-fed, sugar-free, or gluten-free. A clean diet may include whole fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats while limiting highly processed snacks and other packaged foods with added sugar and salt. Generally, clean eating is assumed to refer to foods that are as close to their natural state as possible, maybe organic, and most likely with minimal use of any chemical additives and preservatives. The terms clean eating and clean diets are not federally regulated in the U.S., so interpretation by consumers and the marketing of “clean” products by the food industry can vary widely. ![]() What it means will depend on who you ask. Once just a buzzword, “clean eating” is now a popular eating style. ![]() The only way it could be more custom-tailored for me is if all the protagonists were lesbians.

What is really special about Summertime is that its pacing is absolutely tremendous each episode escalates from the previous episode, but not in a way that leaves either viewers or characters without room to breathe. The visuals, the music, and the acting (the seiyuu voice the characters with a Kansai accent!) are on-point, it’s a truly gorgeous show and slated to run for 25 episodes, covering the manga in its entirety. ![]() There is, surprisingly, a lesbian (though sadly unrequited, but hey, one of the het guys is even more unrequited than she). The show suffers from truly unnecessary fanservice, but it’s not the most egregious around. But the loop is getting a little shorter each time, and soon he’ll loop to the moment of calamity and will have no more chance to ‘redo’. Except each time he dies, the time loops and he gets another chance. ![]() I’ve been obsessed with Summertime Render, a horror/suspense anime with the premise that a guy returns to his small-town island home and finds it infested with spooky doppelgangers pretending to be humans… and then he gets brutally murdered. ![]() Radial Balance Principles of Art Symmetrical Balance.If you see a picture or a painting that makes you uncomfortable or feels incomplete, it will be primarily due to the imbalance in the artwork.Īn imbalanced work appears to be not stable and makes the viewer dissatisfied.īalance in art directs the viewer’s vision of where he has to see.

Fotnote: Interview with Eivind Wolff, Norwegian Contractors project director, 20 October 2016.Įxtensive seabed surveys and geotechnical sampling had been conducted on Draugen as early as 1992.

The platform was finally in position on 17 May, Norway’s Constitution Day, and an improvised parade was staged on the helideck. It crossed the 62nd parallel – the northern boundary of the North Sea – at 04.58 on 11 May, and reached its destination on 13 May. The operation took 10 days at an average speed on 1.5 knots. Completing the voyage without risk depended more than ever on a long period of fine weather. Six big tugs with a combined 75 000 horsepower in bollard pull were needed to cover the 830 kilometres to the field.Īs mentioned above, this was the longest-ever tow for a Condeep platform.
