Where We Live: This historic funeral home was rescued from the grave | Ceiling Wall Panels

The unique exhaust note has been meticulously tuned to deliver an engaging but discreet confirmation of the power available to the driver on full throttle, and be superbly refined and relaxing at cruising speeds.

“It truly is a gorgeous setting with lush gardens, mature trees, meticulous landscaping and lovely sitting areas where you can sit and enjoy the pleasant surroundings,” Clinton said.

HEX’s line of Vintage Teal Leather cases for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6s hit the quality mark. And, they’re great-looking, too. The Solo Wallet case snaps on simply to your 6s, engulfing it in premium leather. The leather is so well-affixed to the custom-molded case, it looks clean and seamless. Perfectly designed cutouts reveal a camera hole, volume-control buttons, the charging area, and everything else you need access to on the perimeter of your phone. Two integrated slots for credit cards, cash or an ID mark the back of the case.

Ms. Prada should be pleased and maybe a little worried. It’s up to the foundation to program these spaces for generations to come.

Standard on First Edition models and available on select models, Configurable Dynamics allows the driver to tailor vehicle settings to their individual preference using the touchscreen. In Dynamic mode’s default setting, throttle response is increased, gear shifts anticipate a sportier driving style, the suspension stiffens and power-steering assistance is reduced for extra driver feedback. Configurable Dynamics allows each parameter to be individually adjusted, so increased throttle response can be combined with, for example, the default suspension setting2.

The closest I got was in 2008 when I visited MXL Industries, a company in Pennsylvania that makes face shields for Shoei and others. That visit was described in my article “How to Make a Motorcycle Helmet Visor“.

The need for Flame retardant Polycarbonate films is expected to be fueled by the need for films with excellent thermal and electrical insulation properties. Several manufacturers of Flame retardant Polycarbonate films focus on producing customized solutions, with features such as embossing, variations in colors, and others. The ease of handling of Flame retardant Polycarbonate films is a merit, and therefore, they are used in a wide range of products such as aircraft in-flight panels, business equipment, electronic devices, and others. Therefore, the outlook for the growth of the global Flame retardant Polycarbonate films market is expected to remain largely positive during the forecast period.

As we spoke, I removed links from an Apple Watch bracelet, and then put them back, and it seemed possible that the watch’s combination of distractions might, for some, be overwhelming. “I know,” Ive said. Like an iPhone, an Apple Watch is only “simple and pure”—to quote Ive’s film—until it’s a threat to sleep, solitude, or the happiness of someone near you in a cinema. Michael Ive, remembering his son’s hamster obstacle course, wondered if young people were now “too screen-focussed.” On a sidewalk outside the studio, I later saw an employee looking at his Apple Watch while balancing an iPhone 6 on his forearm.

Architectural acoustics—a field that integrates architecture, building construction, and the physics of sound—is part building engineering (mitigating noise and vibrations) and part design. In the latter, more glamorous role, acousticians deploy a wide range of materials and construction techniques to sculpt pleasant-sounding spaces that service a building’s function, be it a restaurant or a concert hall. Unfortunately, acoustics is often an afterthought, something used to correct errors after construction if noise proves annoying. By then, it’s too late.

The composite helmet manufacturing process is a trade secret and Nolan has developed many special methods to manufacture these helmets.

The minimalism continues on the back. There’s no branding at all, which MNML is quite proud of. The camera cutout is as precise as it can possibly be, with the cutout going exactly around the lens and the flash. The fingerprint sensor cutout, however, is quite a bit larger than the sensor itself to ensure that use is still easy. There’s also a circular ridge around it so that you can find the sensor easily without looking. The buttons are a little bit more difficult to access, but again, given the slimness of the case around the cutout, you won’t have any issues.

The final product ended up pretty nice for the most part, though I did have one corner that refused to fully adhere to the phone. The triangles on the back demonstrate a level of craftsmanship that can’t be found on a plastic case, and the Toast branding on the bottom is subtle. I wasn’t able to install the front skin due to the glass screen protector I had, but I wouldn’t have done so anyway as it makes the screen harder to swipe on. The cutouts for the camera and the fingerprint sensor, as well as those for the buttons, were accurate. The design definitely made the phone eye-catching, but I had a hard time dealing with all the sharp corners that inherently come with wood products.
