2/8/2024 0 Comments Breaking quiet 3![]() Hartwig picked up her fourth double-double of the year in her first game at Cedar Falls. UE couldn't get back into the game on offense after their early streak in the 82-52 loss. But a hot stretch outside the arc for UNI pushed the Aces deficit to 26. Evansville benefited at the line in the first five minutes of the fourth three trips from three separate players. ![]() UE started scoring early in the final quarter as well with a quick five-point run. Hartwig had the final bucket of the quarter for the Aces on a contested three-pointer with 39 seconds left. Evansville kept the Panthers from breaking out on any major scoring run as they had the better scoring percentage in the third frame. UE continued to have success outside the arc in the third, going 3-7 from three different players. A catch-and-shoot three from guard Lexie Sinclair three minutes in forced a timeout from UNI. The Aces learned from their first half as they broke out to a 10-3 start to the third quarter. Evansville headed into the second half with a 27-point deficit. Tomancova added the other bucket for UE with under four minutes left in the half on a jumper in the paint. It took just over five minutes for the Aces to score their first basket as guard Tene Smith hit a three to end the scoring drought. It was a tough second quarter for Evansville as the team scored just five points on 11.8% shooting. UE headed into the second quarter down 25-11. Center Barbora Tomancova added back-to-back layups to help get Evansville within 11 while Hartwig had the final bucket of the quarter for the Aces. UNI broke out on a ten-point run after the first timeout, keeping the game away from UE in the first half. The three-ball was the only shot working for either squad as Hartwig had the first for the Aces in the third minute. Freshman forward Maggie Hartwig was key for Evansville in its second-half turnaround with 18 points, 11 rebounds, and tying a career-high four blocks.īoth teams struggled on offense early with a meager 6-3 score three and a half minutes into the game. ![]() UE kept themselves in the game by shining on the offensive glass with 15 offensive rebounds. I don't want to break that promise to people.CEDAR FALLS, Iowa – The University of Evansville women's basketball team struggled to overcome a slow first half in a 52-82 loss to the Northern Iowa Panthers.Ī close second half wasn't enough to overcome a tough first half for the Purple Aces against preseason favorites UNI. I think we've proven that this is an original idea that is really beloved by people in a way that. "But the good news is that the studio and I are on the same page in that this isn't one of those franchises where we keep pumping them out if they make money. "I haven't heard from the studio that they want a third one," John Krasinski continued. "I set up a couple of tiny little Easter eggs in that not only explain more about, but would allow for more mythology," Krasinski shared last year. ![]() While the writer and director as admitted in the past that he does not know whether a third Quiet Place will happen, he has made plans just in case. Should A Quiet Place Part II find the same success as its predecessor, it will surely be a matter of time before Krasinski gets to work on a third outing. While Emily Blunt stops short of confirming that A Quiet Place Part III is definitely happening, early critical reaction to the sequel has been very positive so far, with the movie achieving a fresh 92% on Rotten Tomatoes. Blunt, Millicent Simmonds and Noah Jupe reprise their roles from the first film, with Cillian Murphy and Djimon Hounsou joining the whispered chaos. Forced to venture into the unknown, they quickly realize that the creatures that hunt by sound are not the only threats that lurk beyond the sand path. Though hopefully with quiet footsteps.Ī Quiet Place Part II picks up following the deadly events at home, with the Abbott family now forced to face the terrors of the outside world as they continue their fight for survival in silence. A Quiet Place expertly builds up an atmosphere of dread and growing intensity while slowly revealing the realities of this new world, with the sequel (and any potential threequel) able to explore the boundaries of Krasinski's ideas. The first A Quiet Place proved to be a huge critical and financial hit when released back in 2018, with Krasinski crafting a well-realized post-apocalyptic world ravaged by the mysterious blind monsters with an acute sense of hearing. 2/7/2024 0 Comments Kindle speed reading ios![]() You can use markers as visual pacers, placing them underneath particular lines. However, when it comes to ebooks, there is another way of using their digital counterparts. It is a rectangular card piece that readers can place between two pages as a method of remembering where they last left reading a book. You might be familiar with the concept of marking your physical book’s pages with the help of a bookmarker. But, not to worry, as the next step solves this issue! 2. That said, since lines are longer in landscape mode, there will be a higher risk of missing a line. With fewer jumps, longers lines, your reading speed will improve drastically, and your eyes won’t get tired too early. However, after some time, holding it in landscape mode will become a natural thing. Plus, it will be more tiring to hold your Kindle in landscape mode after years of holding it in portrait mode. That said, shifting from portrait to landscape mode will require some getting used to. Such a thing leads to a higher chance of backtracking to a certain line because of line-jumping or results in tired eyes due to more increased visual efforts. Hence, shorter lines will lead to line skipping. However, a vertical layout leads to shorter lines in a paragraph. Vertical books came into being because vertically printed books are easier to place on a shelf. That said, going landscape mode after holding our mobile devices and tablets in portrait mode for so long can be a complicated thing to do. ![]() Going landscape can further enhance your reading speed and provide you with an overall comfortable reading experience. After you are well-aware of your reading speed, take the next step and adjust your Kindle’s settings to increase your reading speed further. However, if you want to be called a speed reader, it should be near the 4-5 pages per minute mark, without losing subject comprehension, of course. Typically, an average page-per-minute count is around 2-3. Start the stopwatch when you’re on the first page, and stop it when you reach the tenth page to know how many pages you can read per minute. If your Kindle doesn’t display the page number, activate this feature by touching the top part of your Kindle’s touch screen.

That said, Home Depot does require drug tests for employees seeking certification or licensing to operate heavy machinery on the job such as forklifts or other heavy equipment. The company also reserved the right to drug test employees if there was an accident on the job that sparked suspicion of drug or alcohol use.īut as of 2022, it seems that Home Depot has all but tossed their drug testing policy for prospective employees.Īccording to a large pool of current Home Depot employees, including these Reddit users, Home Depot no longer requires drug testing as part of their hiring process. Any associate found in violation of this condition of employment is subject to immediate termination.īut how does Home Depot ensure that their work environment is drug and alcohol free?įor many years, Home Depot tested all prospective employees as part of the second phase of their interview process. This prohibition is a condition of employment. Using illegal drugs at any time, using alcohol when on the job or on Company premises or coming to work under the influence of alcohol or drugs is strictly prohibited. We are committed to providing a safe, healthy and drug-free workplace. The official Home Depot Business Code of Conduct and Ethics states the following: Still, it never should have been an issue.Finding out exactly how and when Home Depot administers drug tests requires a bit of digging, because the company doesn’t publish their official drug test policy for the public. The pain has been more of an extreme inconvenience rather than a debilitation as I am still able to get around, I just can't help my employees due to the pain. ![]() As I am unable to get an appointment with a doctor or chiropractor due to harvest, I can not confirm this and will likely be healed up by the time I am able to get such an appointment. The pain in my back is self-diagnosed as muscle strain. ![]() I'm not sure if living as remotely as I do and not having reasonable access to an alternative form of fresh foods (such as a restaurant within an hour of my home) would be an extenuating circumstance that would help my case as I was maybe a little more desperate than I should have been to get the undamaged fridge sooner than later? Allowing him to lean and damage the fridge would have meant another nearly 3 week wait for another fridge, during which time my family would have gone without fresh foods again. The employee didn't ask me to assist, he just started leaning the fridge so I jumped in to minimize damages to the fridge. All because he pushed me into a position of lifting a 276 lb fridge rather than waiting for proper equipment. Do I have a case against Home Depot for their employee's negligence and indolence? The pain is lasting well into day 5 now and is affecting both my work and leisure. However, due to living an hour from any restaurant (no substitute for fresh prepared food) and going nearly 3 weeks without cold foods in my house that I could prepare, I was probably a little more desperate than I should have been to get a fridge back to my remotely located house. Under any other circumstances I would have just let him damage the fridge on their dollar and waited for a new one to arrive. In order to try and minimize the damage to a fridge I had waited 17 days for (new one ordered as soon as old one died), I helped him load it and injured my back in the process. When I told him I wasn't going to lift it by hand when they have equipment to do just that, he disappeared for a few minutes and came back and said he couldn't find anyone to help and started leaning the fridge towards the truck bed. Employee tried to get me to help him load a nearly 300 lb fridge into the back of my truck by hand. ![]() However, these details might not be as readily decodable without insider knowledge of York’s manufacturing and serial number assignment practices. If you have a format that doesn’t match the example, you might want to consult with a York representative or HVAC professional familiar with York systems for accurate decoding.Īdditionally, some York serial numbers can also provide information on the plant location, sequence of manufacture, and other details. The format described above is one of the most common ones, but there are variations, especially in older or newer units. However, it’s crucial to understand that serial number formats can change over the years. The Third (D): These two digits together represent the month of manufacture.If it was a 1 and 1, it would be 2011, and so forth. The Second and Fourth Characters (0 & 5): This is the third digit of the year of manufacture. ![]() The First Letter (W): This often represents the manufacturing plant.The typical format used for many years by York is a combination of letters and numbers. Over the years, York has used various formats for their serial numbers, but let’s break down one of the most common formats. This way, you can identify how old your unit is. Often, when the equipment is installed, the installer might note down the serial number in the manual or on the warranty card for reference.Īfter you find the location of the York serial number, the next step is to decipher the code in it. If you have retained the user manual or warranty card that came with your unit, it’s likely that the serial number is mentioned there. The serial number is often on a label affixed to the inner part of the door or the body of the unit. Indoor Unit: For furnaces or air handlers, open the door or panel to access the inside of the unit.Typically, there will be a label or sticker on the side or at the back of the unit. Outdoor Unit: For central air conditioners and heat pumps, check the outdoor compressor/condenser unit.The most straightforward method to find your York serial number is by inspecting the unit itself. Here’s a simple guide to help you locate it: How do I find my York serial number?įinding the serial number for your York HVAC unit is essential for a variety of reasons, including warranty claims, servicing, and determining the age of your unit.

In simple words, Lightroom is an all-in-one editing app that offers perfect image organization, cloud storage, numerous presets, and raw and non-destructive image editing. Adobe Lightroom (previously called Lightroom CC) is a free photo and video editor app that helps you capture and edit stunning images with professional and easy-to-use photo editing tools, powerful presets, and unique filters. Later, Adobe realized in 2007 that there was a need for a dedicated photo and video editor app where users can easily edit their images.

A fun feature for those who love hotkeys (keyboard shortcuts) It all happens right in the main interface. Speed edits in Capture One 21 have also allowed for a rapid and immersive workflow as I tether without having to leave or navigate to different editing tabs. My Export Recipe (Export Presets) system has also saved me infinite time by exporting all the files I’ll ever need into organised files so I can easily access and share them. ![]() The ability to open multiple sessions at once, copy edits between sessions is also a plus. I spent less time editing, used fewer tools and got better results and image quality. What was the most fascinating to me was that my time editing was reduced. Once I got used to having more tools available and could set them up how I liked, I found it limiting to go back into Lightroom. Setting it up the way you want, fully removing, moving and dragging tools around helps you create a workflow that inspires you. While the Capture One interface might seem overwhelming at first, it’s much more customisable than Lightroom. Lightroom has a more simplified interface with different modules to jump into so there are fewer tools staring back at you all at once. Pros and cons of switching to Capture One Sessions for file management You have to be proactive in backing up your sessions.Īutomatically stored and organised in Session folders. There are, however, pros and cons of working with sessions over catalogues.Įasily to use and manage, find files, move and organise files. One thing I love about Sessions being free from a catalogue is that I can move the sessions around (all side-car files and edits come with the folder system) and you won’t lose files or have missing files in a catalogue. I didn’t even really bother with setting up a cataloguing system in Capture One as most of the pros I talked to, also liked working with Sessions. Meaning I shoot in Sessions, then combine the photoshoots into a catalogue for a client if I feel the need to. ![]() I use a new session for each shoot and only use a catalogue for client projects after the fact. Even with the best intentions and organisation, I find it hard to remember which sets of photos are in which catalogues.Īfter working with hundreds of Capture One Sessions, I can say they are my preference for managing files and shoots. After working for 10 years as a photographer, years start to blur into one another. I’m just going to say it, I’ve never liked catalogues. Testing my system over this length of time would tell me what worked better for me. In 500 days, was I easily going to find that photo I shot today? Either to update our portfolio, share with a client, licence to a new client or share on social media. We always need a system where we can easily locate prior images. ![]() The other important aspect any working photographer will know is their file management system. To really grasp the differences between Lightroom and Capture One, I wanted to test all of these features over time.
