We always want to be sure nothing is left to chance, and all expectations are met prior to placing your order into production. This will show your exact rail sizes, the exact mid-rail location, and exact number of slats in each panel. If there is a natural divide or obstruction in the window you want to cover, you can line up the mid-rail with that.Įxact mid-rail locations may get slightly adjusted by the factory to accommodate the height of your window divided by your chosen slat size, always keeping structural integrity as well as aesthetically balanced rail sizes in mind.Īs mentioned above, you can always request a factory drawing of your final shutter design to review and approve prior to production. It is up to you where to place the mid-rail – perhaps at the exact center of the window, or 2/3 of the way up to give you privacy at the bottom and let in light at the top. While mid-rails are strictly optional on windows under 70” tall, taller windows above 70” height will require a mid-rail for added stability and structural integrity. You can provide us with your custom mid-rail height measured from the bottom of the shutter up to the center of the desired mid-rail location. This gives you flexible control over light and privacy and takes up about half the solid space on a full height shutter compared to the solid material in between a top and bottom tier of a tier-on-tier style shutter. Mid-rails are horizontal solid rails that separate the upper and lower sections of a shutter panel so that the slats can move independently above and below the mid-rail. When ordering tier on tier style, make sure your window is tall enough that the solid material does not overpower and block much of the window where the 2 tiers meet. You can always request a CAD diagram to view the exact rail sizes and number of slats in each panel prior to production. ![]() Keeping in mind there is always a solid top and bottom rail, you may want to opt for a smaller slat size on a very short window to allow for more slats to fit into the panel.įor example, an 18” tall shutter with a 3” top and bottom rail, leaves about 12” of space for slats, so this panel could potentially have anywhere from 3 – 6 moving slats depending upon what slat size you choose. This matters when designing your shutters because it will tell you where your first moving slats will begin – an important factor in determining how much recess depth you have for the slats to operate and how large of a slat size you can choose.įor example, the solid bottom rail may cover up a crank handle or other obstruction that otherwise would have impacted the slats from fully rotating. Smaller rails would reduce the stability and overall structural integrity of the shutter, therefore we do not advise requesting any deviation from the factory’s recommended rail sizes. These rails will generally range between 3” to 5”. Top and bottom rail sizes are at the factory’s discretion, determined by the height of the panel and adjusted to accommodate your chosen slat size. Holding each shutter panel together are the left and right vertical stiles, and the solid top and bottom rails. Plantation shutters are known for their movable slats, also called louvers, that rotate open and closed to control how much light enters the room. The rails are the solid, non-movable parts of a shutter panel ![]() What are the specs on these, how do they reinforce structural integrity, and why is it important when designing your shutters? Now, let’s take a look at the solid top and bottom rails, and the optional mid-rail. Our last blog post explored in detail the vertical rails on a shutter panel, called stiles. ![]() DeWALT batteries are a bit heavier in many of the new models… By the time you fasten your belt tight enough to carry this on your belt, you can’t walk anyways. A more advanced DCB090/091 with MORE USB Ports, and some USB-C ports… sure… But I don’t see a whole lot of use for DeWALT users to carry around FlexVOLT batteries like this. Though, I disagree wholeheartedly about DeWALT making one. I’m Team Yellow, and this took a little bit of mental processing to figure out. Look at the device hanging on the Cart, and to a lesser extent (because it’s covered in stuff and hard to see) the photo of it by the Water Heater, powering everything.Īnd, Yes… I do believe that Rafter Hook is fastened down tighter than it seems, and should double as a belt loop/clip VERY nicely when folded in. This is just a note for those of us who looked at this thing and thought “That doesn’t look like the usual rugged Milwaukee Body Plastic for their tools! What happened!”ĭon’t be stupid like me. The best one appears to be the one hanging off the cart. Just… For my own sanity… The reason this thing LOOKS awful, is because the images on WHITE are RENDERINGS… The Photos of it in action look SIGNIFICANTLY better. Overall, I’d say that the Top-Off seems like a nicely balanced jobsite-friendly design. The pricing is very different – $260 for the Anker and $99 for the Top-Off plus the price of whatever M18 battery you want to power it with.Ĭompare: Anker Battery Generator via Amazon The Milwaukee Top-Off can deliver 175W via AC, 45W via USB-C PD, and 2.4A via USB-A (~12W). ![]() It recharges via included AC adapter, optional USB-C PD charger, or optional DC output solar charger. The Anker has a display and polished consumer-friendly enclosure. All together, the Anker can deliver a maximum power output of 100W. Its AC port can deliver 100W max, and its car outlet port 60W max. Its USB-C port can deliver 30W max, and its USB-A ports 15W max (likely combined). The Anker has more ports – a 12V auto DC port and a second USB-A port. ![]() It features 213Wh of charge capacity, or nearly the equivalent of a Milwaukee M18 HD 12.0Ah battery (216 Wh). Let’s take a look at that model, for context. Perhaps the closest comparison to the Milwaukee M18 Top-Off is the Anker Powerhouse 200. There aren’t a lot of battery-powered multi-port and AC port adapters out there. ![]() ![]() There can’t possibly exist a human with a beating heart that can get through the opening sequence of Up without shedding a tear. Noteworthy Cast: Ed Asner, Jordan Nagai.Polley’s touch ensures the connection between the couple is maintained even when they can barely look another in the eye-a poignant undercurrent that swells to the surface at Away From Her’s overwhelmingly moving denouement, a testament to the power of tough, heartbreaking love. The devastating account of Grant coming to terms with his wife’s failing memory, and Fiona navigating a world slipping from her grasp, is rendered with empathy and stark realism. In a tour de force performance, Julie Christie plays a retiree named Fiona who checks into a nursing facility for 30 days, only to have entirely forgotten her husband, Grant (Gordon Pinsent), once she returns home to him. Away From Her, which Polley helmed at just 27 years old, centers on an older Canadian couple whose bond is tested by Alzheimer’s disease. But her 2006 debut behind the camera remains her most gut-wrenching work. Sarah Polley is a filmmaker of rare emotional intelligence, from her innovative memoiristic documentary, Stories We Tell, to her anguished Oscar-winning feminist fable, Women Talking. ![]() Noteworthy Cast: Julie Christie, Michael Murphy.©Lions Gate/Courtesy Everett Collection Away From Her You don’t have to live to Sam’s age to see your own glimpses of what used to be waving at you from behind the present. His ache comes from remembering too well, so sharply and vividly that all he can see is the past. It’s a crushing admission, but also a lie. “If I knew things would no longer be here, I would have tried to remember better,” he says. ![]() “And then I went to see the nightclub I used to have, and thank God it was there because for a minute I thought I never was.” Soon, Sam will be gone too. I went to see where Eva lived off Poplar Street. When they visit him, the elderly gentleman recalls trying to revisit the house where he raised his children, the ballroom where he once played music with his brothers, and the place where his wife lived when he first met her. In the final scene, Sam (still played by Mueller-Stahl) is very old indeed, while the little boy is grown up with a son of his own-also named Sam. Old Sam is a storyteller, and his little grandson soaks up the tales as they create their own memories together. It’s a loving, sweeping, and intimate story from Rain Man filmmaker Barry Levinson, and it tends to break the heart as often as it fills it. This is the story of an immigrant family in 1950s America, told through the eyes of both its youngest member, Michael (a nine-year-old Elijah Wood), and its oldest, the grandfather Sam Krichinsky (played by German actor Armin Mueller-Stahl).
The Web Presentation tiers are mostly developed by using HMTL, CSS, and Javascript while desktop applications could be written in multitudes of languages which depends on the platform. It is the topmost tier and can be accessed by the end-user in the form of a desktop application, graphical user interface (GUI), or simply by running on a web browser. This is where the end-user interacts with the system via the application. The presentation tier is the communication and user interface layer of the application. Layers can offer a lot more than tier and are different from tier and thus can’t be used interchangeably. The Three-Tiered architecture is a widely practiced application architecture for software where the organizing is done into three tiers: Various patterns have been in use to develop complex systems and they are discussed below.

Superheating the steam is done by increasing the time the steam is exposed to the flue gases. In a similar way, if the steam is superheated in the boiler, it is evident that the work is increased by area 3-3′-4′-4-3 (see diagram below): Effect of superheating If the exhaust pressure drops from P 4 to P 4‘ with the corresponding decrease in temperature at which heat is rejected in the condenser the net work is increased by area 1-4-4′-1′-2’-2-1 (see diagram below) Effect of exhaust pressure Improvements to the Rankine Cycle Efficiency Effect of Pressure and Temperature on the Rankine Cycle Referring to the diagram above and using the enthalpy values in the Rankine cycle, we can write: Rankine Cycle Efficiency then can be expressed as: In addition, feed pumps consume energy thus reducing the net work output. The Rankine Cycle EfficiencyĪs noted above, some heat is always lost from the steam to cooling water. This thermodynamic cycle is known as the Rankine Cycle. The pressure of the condensate leaving the condenser is increased in the pump thereby enabling the condensate to flow into the boiler. The exhaust steam leaves the turbine and enters the condenser where heat is transferred from the steam to cooling water. The steam expands in the turbine and does work which enables the turbine to drive the electric generator. High-pressure steam leaves the boiler and enters the turbine.

He finished a protein shake and tossed it toward a trash can in the corner. Trainers had added extra just to cool him off. The Celtics are also aware their latest win over Philadelphia makes them prohibitive title favorites.īack inside the locker room, as teammates took turns congratulating Tatum, he shoveled ice from the bucket in which he soaks his tired feet. Having split two meetings with Miami in the conference finals over the previous three seasons, Tatum and company know all too well about Jimmy Butler, Bam Adebayo and the rest of a challenger that fights harder than the more talented Sixers. That is all Boston has before hosting the Heat for Game 1 on Wednesday (8:30 p.m. How do you even play another game after a night that felt like a championship celebration? "A couple days' rest." "On to the next one," said a smiling Mike Zarren, the Celtics' vice president of basketball operations. Just then, Rivers passed the Tatums, half-joking, "Too much joy in this f***ing hallway." Tatum had just wrapped her a hell of a Mother's Day gift, complete with a trip to Miami for the Eastern Conference finals. Meanwhile, a beaming Brandy Cole waited in the hallway for her son, the rising superstar. That was a great feeling to win that and come back home." They had us, and we figured out a way to win. The end of that third, going into the fourth, the game was back and forth, the crowd was into it. "We have a saying, 'There's only up from here.' They had us on the ropes in Game 6. "It definitely was in my mind that I had played as bad as it could get for 43 minutes," Tatum said of his poor showing two nights earlier. "We were done." And then they weren't, because Tatum lit a fourth-quarter spark that started Sunday's inferno. In the locker room after Game 7, Tatum told teammates he understood how hard it was for the Sixers to get back on a plane bound for Boston after so deflating a loss on Thursday. All I can say is, all praise to the 'Most High.' We're both extremely grateful to be here." We're looking forward to winning more games and continuing this process. "It takes a lot of sacrifice, intensity, emotion and hard work. "To win in the playoffs is extremely hard," added co-star Jaylen Brown, who scored 25 points. They feed off emotion and energy, and it's reciprocated." I love getting to play big games, put on big performances in front of them. ![]() I feel that they embrace me almost as one of their own, and that means a lot. "Whether it's pregame, during the game at the free-throw line, I've been here my whole career. "I can't express it enough, the genuine love I feel from the crowd," said Tatum, who added 13 rebounds, 5 assists and not a single turnover in 42 minutes of Game 7. ![]() It was only two nights earlier when Tatum started 1-for-14 from the field in a must-win Game 6. With each successive bucket, Tatum impressed himself, at one point shouting, "Oh, my God," and turning each time to his family section seated front row, as if they were the conduit through which he plugged into the arena. Being able to just sit back, each your popcorn and watch, sometimes we do get in that mode where we forget we're on the court playing with him and we've got to continue to play, because he's able to make shots at a high difficulty and get hot like he did tonight. "It's a movie," said Celtics guard Marcus Smart, who finished +31 in 39 minutes, second only to Tatum's +33. (AP Photo/Steven Senne) (ASSOCIATED PRESS) I have to move ahead, but I may go back just to see what we did, because it was impressive."īoston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum receives applause as he steps off the court near the end of Game 7 against the Philadelphia 76ers in the Eastern Conference semifinal series, Sunday, May 14, 2023, in Boston. "I don't know if I'll go back and watch the whole game. "It was beautiful to see," said Celtics veteran Al Horford. Tatum scored 10 straight points, including consecutive step-back 3-pointers over reigning MVP Joel Embiid, during a 28-3 run that suffocated the Sixers. The game was tied, 55-55, in the opening minute of the second half, when he transcended. "You never know what might happen," said Ryan. (Ryan will point that he was in Los Angeles when Larry Bird dropped a 39-12-10 on the New York Knicks in a second-round Game 7.) ![]() You knew the night was special when legendary sportswriter Bob Ryan, whose career on the Celtics beat began shortly after Bill Russell's 11th and final championship in 1969, tells you that Tatum's achievement was the greatest Game 7 he has seen live from someone in a Celtics uniform.

The gentleman examined the specimen, and thinking that it was indeed a Baskerville specimen, started to point out the worst features of ‘Baskeville’s’ type.Īnother notable character from this period in type history is Pierre Simon Fournier who developed the ‘point’ system ( Fournier Scale), and also designed and cut his own type. Franklin was a huge fan of Baskerville’s work, and in a letter to Baskerville (1760) he enthusiastically defends Baskerville’s types, recounting a discussion he had with an English gentleman who claimed that Baskerville’s ‘ultra-thin’ serifs and narrow strokes would blind its readers.įranklin mischievously tore off the top of a Caslon specimen (to remove any mention of Caslon, of course), and showed it to the gentleman, claiming that it was the work of Baskerville. However, In 1758 Baskerville met Benjamin Franklin who returned to the US with some of Baskervilles’s type, popularising it through its adoption as one of the standard typefaces employed in federal government publishing. The following is a detail from one of Baskerville’s type specimens:ĭuring Baskerville’s lifetime his types had little influence in his home country. Whereas the earlier Humanist and Old Style types owed much to the handwritten letter form, the pen’s influence has all but disappeared in the Transitional types. “Baskerville has less calligraphic flow than most earlier typefaces”***, and this can be said of just about all the Transitional Style types. He achieved amplitude not merely by handsome measurement but by letting in the light.– Type, the Secret History of Letters, Simon Loxley, page 54 (quoting from English Printed Books) was not an inventor but a perfector….He concentrated on spacing. Space doesn’t permit to list all of his achievements suffice to say that he always strove to improve upon existing methods and materials, whether that be in his recipes for new inks, or his finer quality glossy papers. The Englishman John Baskervile is a fascinating character, and reading about him is like reading the biography of two men in one. In fact the full set of 82 fonts wasn’t completed until half a century later in 1745. The first book to use these types wasn’t published until a decade later in 1702. Also, the main strokes are thicker and the sub-strokes thinner…. Its horizontal and unbracketed structure symbolizes a complete break with the humanist calligraphic tradition. The principal graphic novelty in the ‘Romain du Roi’ is the serif. However, Grandjean himself was to produce the italic from his own designs. ![]() Interestingly, Jaugeon also designed a complimentary sloping roman (often referred to today as an oblique) as an alternative to a true italic**. The designs - also known as the Paris Scientific Type - were engraved on copper by Louis Simmoneau, and then handed to the punchcutter Grandjean (not to be confused with the earlier Granjon of course), who began cutting the type in 1698. One of the committee members, Jacques Jaugeon - at that time better known as a maker of educational board games - in consultation with other members, produced the designs constructed on a 48×48 grid (2,304 squares). The Romain du Roi is often referred to as Grandjean’s type, but the designs were produced by a committee* set up by the French Academy of Science. Remember, this is the Age of the Enlightenment, marked by resistance to tradition, whether that be art, literature, philosophy, religion, whatever so it’s no surprise that this same era should give birth to radically different types. The Romain du Roi marked a significant departure from the former Old Style types and was much less influenced by handwritten letterforms. But today we stand in the cobbled streets of 17th century France Louis XIV is on the throne and Jacques Jaugeon is working on what is now considered to be the first Transitional (or Neoclassical) style typeface, the Romain du Roi or King’s Roman, commissioned by Louis XIV for the Imprimerie Royale in 1692. Today we’ve moved along the time-line to the cusp of the 18th century, the start of a period in history that we now refer to as the The Enlightenment, a time that was to sow the seeds of revolution in France, North America and beyond. In part two we considered the Old Style or Garalde types and also discovered how this era gave birth to the first italic type in 1501. In part one we traveled all the way back to the 15th century to take a closer look at the Humanist or Venetian style types with their distinctive lowercase ‘e’ (remember that sloping crossbar?). Welcome to part three of our Type Terms series. For a modern-day transitional typeface, be sure to check out the Brill typeface family. |
