![]() ![]() I had read some reviews about the Equil Smartpen 2 and thought it hit the sweet spot for both notetaking and drawing in a more traditional way. And there are electronic pens that can collect your notes and send them to your computer when you use special notebooks for taking notes. I know we already have iOS and Android devices with drawing tools and external art/drawing tablets. If you need more space for your items, check out the larger laptop bags and rollers on STM's site! When fully loaded, the STM Aero Small Laptop Backpack retains it shape and is very comfortable to wear. I marked up some STM Aero images so you can view the components I included in the review. INSIDE POCKETS: Inside the STM Aero, there are three more slip pockets, two pen slots, and a deep zippered pocket.FRONT POCKETS: The STM Aero has a zippered, soft-lined pocket on the front which includes two slip pockets (one that I use for my iPhone 6+ and the other for my Wayfarers) and I store my boarding pass in the larger section for easy access to it.There is a grab strap at the top of the backpack which makes it easy to carry down the plane aisles. STRAPS: The STM Aero has comfortable, padded shoulder straps and back, and also includes a "sternum strap" that connects the straps in the front in case I am carrying a heavier load.This backpack has 2 side pockets, so I am using the other one for easy access to my in-ear headphones. SIDE POCKETS: I often carry a water bottle, so a side pocket is a necessity for me.INSIDE SPACE: The STM Aero is not very deep, but I can easily fit my technology accessory bag with the adapters, power supplies, extension cord, and additional items in the space.The STM Aero includes a strap and hook for attaching my keys! KEY STRAP: One thing I always worry about when traveling is misplacing my car keys.BAGGAGE LOOP: The back of the STM Aero includes a luggage handle pass-through on the back to make it easy for me to carry it on top of my roller bag when I need to.IPAD: I wanted a dedicated pocket for my iPad Air 2, and this bag includes a nicely lined one of these, too.(I opted for black since it does not show the dirt!) In addition, is very lightweight at 1.5 pounds when empty! It comes in Berry red, black, and gray. The laptop device space is 9.05 x 12.8 x 0.98 inches, which will fit up to a 13" MacBook Pro Retina. This one is not! The outer dimensions are only 16.14 x 10.24 x 5.51 inches. Many backpacks sized for 13" laptops are big and bulky. ![]() SIZE: The STM Aero is intended for a 13" laptop, but I only need room for the 11.6" MacBook Air.After examining it, I realized this laptop backpack was one that would work for me! Here are the features I love, in order of importance to me when traveling: I was able to take a look at this laptop backpack at the FETC15 conference in Orlando last month. I recently acquired two new tech accessories I want to share with you! ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() To date, no lawsuit has been filed against anyone accused of spreading Adame’s video online prior to his firing.Īdame also hired crisis manager Howard Bragman to help him secure interviews with reporters shortly after his termination from Spectrum News. The lawsuit ultimately resulted in the owner of the website turning over non-personal information about a user to Adame and his legal team. Shortly after his firing, Adame hired a New York-based law firm to help him uncover the identity of someone who spread copies of the broadcast on an Internet forum. Related: Fired New York weatherman appeared on adult websites for years During the broadcast, Adame provided hundreds of viewers his full name, home address and cell phone number toward the end of the live stream, he used a marker to write the name of his employer across his chest. The video, made in December 2021, included statements by Adame in which he expressed a desire to have sex with his boss on camera, according to a copy of the video obtained by The Desk. “Soon, you’ll be able to see me, on camera, delivering you the forecast, just like before,” Adame said in a video posted online.Īdame was fired from Spectrum News last year after his employer became aware of an adult webcam video that was broadcast on the Internet. The service, sold directly through Adame’s personal website, costs $5 a month and promises to deliver “detailed, yet fun” forecasts delivered daily by e-mail.

Territorial control maps consist of several command points that must be captured, typically either by standing on the command point or bringing a flag to the command point. Variants on CTF exist, such as where players instead have to take their flag to the enemies' base, and modes with multiple flags. ![]() The game's most popular "map", 2fort, is a two-team capture the flag scenario. Bases are typically identical for fair play, and the game lasts for a specified amount of time or until a certain score has been achieved by one team. The game relies heavily on teamwork between players of different classes.Īlthough TFC is arguably best known for its Capture the Flag game mode, the game supports numerous types of play.Ĭapture the flag (CTF) is a simple mode where players must take a flag from the enemy base and return it to a capture point in their own base. Players who are killed reappear at their team's respawn point, and may select a different class each time they spawn, as tactically appropriate. Players select a 'class', such as Sniper or Medic, which determines important attributes such as equipment and special abilities. Typically there are two equal teams, Red and Blue, although certain game modes may allow for more. Unlike most deathmatch games of its generation, players in Team Fortress Classic join one of two or more teams. ![]() A Screenshot of "2fort," one of TFC's most popular maps. ![]() ![]() It had one downside, it required coding skills using CoffeeScript.įramer X – the newest version, is also a powerful tool, but the entry threshold is much lower. The predecessor – Framer Studio, was a workhorse for creating advanced prototypes with complex interactions like working inputs or access to device sensors. Framer Xįramer is on a market for a while now. This one is really important, there is nothing worse than a tool stopping you from getting that nail hammered. How good the tool suits your workflow? Is it smooth like butter or a pain in the neck. Low fidelity is good for testing concepts without unnecessary attention to details. How can you collaborate with your team or a client? Leaving comments, sharing links or hosting your prototypes in a cloud with an ability to download them for offline testing – different options for different situations.ĭoes your prototype feel like a real thing or look like quickly-made wireframes just to show the idea? High fidelity prototypes are preferred when testing on users, they act like the end products so people instead of focusing on the imperfections of the prototype can concentrate on the flow or features they’re testing. Is it natural and fast or does it require some time? In order to compare the tools we need to have some criteria. It’s also important to choose a method that will suit the complexity of your problem – there is no need to build a whole screen if you want to show a simple hover state of the button. Choosing a right tool for your job is crucial for better communication with a team of developers or a client. So, what kind of tool you should use? It pretty much depends on what effect you want to achieve and what you want to do. Some of them were corny but few after some polishing will do. Prototypes on the other hand, are the new jokes that you tested on your friends at last Friday’s party. If you look at the design as a form of communication, your end product is like a well-crafted stand up comedy piece that makes everyone laugh to tears. It doesn’t matter if this is your new Android app or a watering can. Having prototyping as a step in your designing process helps you validate your ideas, explain them to others or test already existing concepts with real customers. It saves your time and simplifies your message. ![]() You’re trying to explain something with words but realizing that it’s so much simpler to sketch your ideas on a whiteboard or a piece of paper.

STARCROSSED 1985 ROTTEN TOMATOES MOVIEĪs unemployed Hollywood agent Ben Sanderson, Cage spent Leaving Las Vegas caught between two relationships - his budding feelings for a hooker with a heart of gold (played by Elisabeth Shue), and his long-standing relationship with the bottle - and although the movie telegraphed its ending from the earliest moments of the final act, Cage and Shue’s tender, world-weary interplay kept audiences invested until its heartbreaking final moments. ![]() ![]() It’s undeniably one of the stranger relationships on our list, one whose love - if love can be said to be a motivator at all - is sublimated so strenuously that it manifests itself in dark, unpleasant ways. (Plus, Julian Sands is in the movie, and things are always weird when that guy’s around.) All the same, anyone who’s ever felt the pull of an unhealthy bond, or willfully turned away from the promise of salvation, can understand Leaving Las Vegas.Įnnis del Mar and Jack Twist ( Brokeback Mountain)Ĭhances are that at some point in your life, you’ve developed feelings for someone you didn’t think you should love. Take the anguish you felt, multiply it by a factor of several dozen, and you’ve got the thorny dilemma at the heart of Ang Lee’s Brokeback Mountain. We’ve got a lot of star-crossed lovers on our list, and they represent only a tiny fraction of the many circuitous love stories that have unfolded in the cinema - so you know that by 2005, just about every variation on the theme had been played out at a theater near you. Give credit to Annie Proulx, then, for writing Brokeback Mountain, a short story that followed the tortured path of the decidedly non-platonic love between two Wyoming ranch hands - and credit to Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal for stepping into the roles and giving the film the kind of box-office clout that leads to Academy Awards and almost $200 million in worldwide grosses. As Ennis and Jack, Ledger and Gyllenhaal were given a lot to deal with - not only did their characters have to bear the weight of overwhelming prejudice, but they were both married with children. How many film romances can be held up as not only affecting, but legitimately important? It’s decidedly dramatic stuff, and their performances were compelling enough to transcend what had previously been one of Hollywood’s mainstream sexual taboos. Though he was far from the first director to adapt Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet for the big screen, Franco Zeffirelli is one of the most successful in fact, before Baz Luhrmann released Romeo + Juliet in 1996, Zeffirelli’s film was arguably the one most people thought of when they tried to imagine a living, breathing version of the Bard’s Verona. ![]() ![]() This is partly due to the director’s comfort with Shakespeare’s writing - he’d filmed the Elizabeth Taylor/Richard Burton Taming of the Shrew the year before - but any Romeo and Juliet is only as good as its leads, and Zeffirelli had a terrific pair in Leonard Whiting and Olivia Hussey not only were they age-appropriate (Whiting was 18, Hussey 15), but they carried the material as deftly as seasoned pros, and their powerful chemistry helped sweep audiences into the world’s most famous tale of star-crossed love all over again. Even now, more than one critic still maintains Zeffirelli’s film is the definitive cinematic Romeo and Juliet.This show is probably one of the best sci-fi fantasy shows on television. ![]() ![]() ![]() SEM imaging revealed cells attaching to and bridging micro-topological features of the porous constructs, and cell activity was significantly greater for the porous PEEK compared to solid at multiple time points.ģD printing Bone ingrowth Fused filament fabrication PEEK Porosity Triply periodic minimal surface.Ĭopyright © 2020 Elsevier Ltd. zFuse TV supports ASS/SSA/SUP special effects subtitles, you can experience the complete special effects subtitle experience of the Mac/PC version.
