Ultimately, I would have to caution against buying the Atomic, especially given its higher $29.99 price. The design is a little odd-looking, and the buttons are plain annoying. Keep in mind that a single drop onto concrete or some other hard surface will surely leave some noticeable marks on the metal frame, if that was your reason for buying one. If you do want an Atomic, you can have your choice of six colors for the metal piece: black, gold, pink, red, silver, and teal. (The Pixel 2 version doesn’t seem to be on Amazon.)

"I am extremely disappointed in our failure and in my colleagues who lacked the ‘political will’ we have preached is so needed in Washington to vote out this good, bipartisan proposal. Their votes were on politics, not product and proved us deserving of Congress’s low approval rating," he said.

To sum things up, if you’re in the market for a stylish lower mid-range smartphone, and don’t really care about things like camera quality and software experience, the Honor 8C is going to serve you just fine. However, if you’re looking for a value-for-money mobile device that checks all the right boxes, I’d advise you instead go for the aforementioned Xiaomi Redmi Note 6 Pro, Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 (or perhaps wait for the upcoming Zenfone Max M2), or even the entry-level variant of the Realme 2 Pro.

For those who don’t like the thickness or extra heft of power cases, Spyder claims its PowerShadow to be the thinnest battery case on the market offering a full 100 percent recharge on your iPhone 6 and 6s. It weighs in at just under 3 oz, and measures a relatively thin 14.5 mm.

All things considered, the Fabric Case has probably been on my Pixel 2 XL the most of any of the cases I’ve reviewed. It’s also caught the most eyes of any case I’ve ever owned. It’s available from the Google Store for both the 2 and 2 XL in Carbon, Cement, Midnight (pictured), and Coral for $40.

Surfaces that today’s consumers now consider old-fashioned were still relatively new and exciting in the interwar and postwar periods. Just as stainless-steel tabletops, slate-tile floors, and exposed ductwork seem au courant today, so did wall paneling and drop ceilings with acoustic tiles in the 1950s and ’60s.

The first thing you’ll notice about the Neo Hybrid Herringbone is the design. Like it or not, it definitely stands out from the crowd, even in this relatively drab gray/black color combo. Whereas Neo Hybrids’ frames used to be made of hard, glossy plastic, this frame has a more matte look and a soft-touch feel. The TPU portion of the case features an interesting pattern on the back, further differentiating this as a case for those who want to stand out from the crowd a little bit. However, this frame does make the case a little bit wider than others usually are, meaning that the phone is a little more difficult to hold onto. It’s really a minuscule difference on paper, but it feels like much more in the hand. If you have small hands, stay away.

And a building nicknamed the Haunted House is slathered in gold leaf, like an early Renaissance panel painting. (“A very cheap cladding material,” Mr. Koolhaas has insisted, “compared to marble or even paint.”)

The interior of the Velar reaffirms ideals of elegant simplicity, sophistication and refinement.  An unwavering belief in reductionism has been fully employed, with switches being kept to an absolute minimum to help create a calm streamlined sanctuary.

The power cord that comes with Canvas is a great deal more streamlined than the one you get with Aurora, which includes a big brick in the middle and makes hiding it a little difficult. But the downside to this updated design is it supports far fewer panels out of the box. If you’re planning a large installation of 40-50 panels, you’re going to need two of these cables to make it work. Nanoleaf is working on selling more capable chargers so you can power more panels on a single panel, but it’s not something you can do right this second. And even then, it’s not the kind of limitation Nanoleaf explains particularly well in its documentation. It’s the kind of thing people are going to find out the hard way, which is not a great way to support the people spending the most on your products.

Property records of the neighborhood around Kurant support Dowdall’s point. In the 1960’s records show a Motor Freight Express Company on Palmer Street and a company called Electro Carbon MPG on Columbia Street. But apart from those, and other small businesses like them, most of the plots of land are residential spots.
