![]() “That’s the character of Walnut,” she said. Mayor Pro Tem Mary Su, whose family is Buddhist, said the community had always embraced the worship center and was resistant only to expansion. Others in the neighborhood overwhelmingly opposed the temple, pointing out that the nearby churches, school and park already generate traffic that clogs Marcon Drive. “I would reject anything that has to do with traffic coming in because we want to keep it as quiet as possible.” “A temple in your backyard? How would you feel?” said Lu, 36, who lives in the same neighborhood as the proposed Zen center. Ivy Kuan, 59, said a faction of Christians circulated petitions making dramatic claims about tour buses and incessant noise.īut Mike Lu, a Buddhist who attends a temple in Baldwin Park, said it was never a matter of religious discrimination. “I can’t call it hate, but I got a very bad feeling and was uncomfortable.” ![]() “I believe the opponents just didn’t want Buddhism in the city, because their reasons against the monastery weren’t very strong,” said Gary He, 59, who supported the center. To some, it was a moment when prejudice reared its head in a town that was supposed to be better than that. When it finally came up for a public hearing in 2007, residents were divided and crammed into City Hall. The process dragged on for years, with traffic studies, revisions and consultations with city officials. In 2001, the center began making plans to turn its three-bedroom home into a 16,000-square-foot monastery, including a 79-car parking lot on its 2.19-acre lot.

If the user removes a folder from ~/Library/TeXShop and then runs TeXShop, the folder will be recreated with default contents. Everything is completely configured and ready to use once the installer finishes its job. One of the GUI programs it installs is " TeX Live Utility," which can keep TeX Live up to date. It also installs Ghostscript and several GUI utilities for TeX including TeX Shop, so it is not necessary to get the front end separately.

This package is free, and uses Apple's standard installer installation takes four to eight minutes and is automatic. The MacTeX Working Group from the Tex User Group (TUG) constructed an install package which installs TeX Live and everything else needed to run TeX on Mac OS X in one step. ![]() BasicTeX is a small subset of TeX Live, but anyone serious about TeX should obtain the full distribution. The standard TeX distribution on the Macintosh is called TeX Live. The latest version of TeXShop for macOS requires Mavericks, El Capitan, or Yosemite. The app is distributed under the GPL public license, and thus free. The most recent version of this distribution is maintained for the Mac by the MacTeX TeXnical Working Group of the TeX Users Group and available under the "Obtaining" tab. The distribution includes tex, latex, dvips, tex fonts, cyrillic fonts, and virtually all other programs and supporting files commonly used in the TeX world. TeXShop uses TeX Live, a standard distribution of Tex programs maintained by the TeX Users Group (TUG) for macOS, Windows, Linux, and various other Unix machines. Since pdf is a native file format on macOS, the app uses "pdftex" and "pdflatex" rather than "tex" and "latex" to typeset in its default configuration these programs in the standard TeX Live distribution of TeX produce pdf output instead of dvi output. It's very worth it, and one of the main reasons that keep me on macOS.TeXShop for Mac is a TeX previewer for macOS, written in Cocoa. It also shows a preview of symbols in the autosuggest dropdown.

It has its own live typesetting engine, which gives you a live preview of your document, as you type. One of the most underrated features IMO: It hides away all auxillary files in a hidden folder, including the synctex file!

Resources: At their studio in Saga, Kyoto, the pair created a number of woodblock versions of the Japanese classics, both text and images, essentially converting emaki (handscrolls) to printed books, and reproducing them for wider consumption. The great pioneers in applying the movable type printing press to the creation of artistic books, and in preceding mass production for general consumption, were Honami Kōetsu and Suminokura Soan. In 1605, books using a domestic copper movable type printing press began to be published, but copper type did not become mainstream after Ieyasu died in 1616. Ieyasu supervised the production of 100,000 types, which were used to print many political and historical books. Tokugawa Ieyasu established a printing school at Enko-ji in Kyoto and started publishing books using a domestic wooden movable type printing press instead of metal from 1599. An edition of the Confucian Analects was printed in 1598, using a Korean moveable type printing press, at the order of Emperor Go-Yōzei. The printing press seized from Korea by Toyotomi Hideyoshi's forces in 1593 was also in use at the same time as the printing press from Europe. ![]() However, the use of the western printing press was discontinued after the ban on Christianity in 1614. The Saga-bon is one of the earliest works produced on a movable type press in Japan.Ī Western-style movable type printing-press was brought to Japan by the Tenshō embassy in 1590, and was first used for printing in Kazusa, Nagasaki in 1591. Early Edo period Saga-bon ( 嵯峨本, Saga Books): libretto for the Noh play Katsuragi by Hon'ami Kōetsu. In the Kamakura period from the 12th century to the 13th century, many books were printed and published by woodblock printing at Buddhist temples in Kyoto and Kamakura. However, an important set of fans of the late Heian period (12th century), containing painted images and Buddhist sutras, reveal from loss of paint that the underdrawing for the paintings was printed from blocks. For centuries, printing was mainly restricted to the Buddhist sphere, as it was too expensive for mass production, and did not have a receptive, literate public as a market. īy the eleventh century, Buddhist temples in Japan produced printed books of sutras, mandalas, and other Buddhist texts and images. These are the earliest examples of woodblock printing known, or documented, from Japan. These were distributed to temples around the country as thanks for the suppression of the Emi Rebellion of 764. In 764 the Empress Kōken commissioned one million small wooden pagodas, each containing a small woodblock scroll printed with a Buddhist text ( Hyakumantō Darani). ![]() Woodblock printing was invented in China under the Tang Dynasty, and eventually migrated to Japan in the late 700s, where it was first used to reproduce foreign literature. The Japanese water-based inks provide a wide range of vivid colors, glazes, and transparency. Widely adopted in Japan during the Edo period (1603–1868) and similar to woodcut in Western printmaking in some regards, the mokuhanga technique differs in that it uses water-based inks-as opposed to western woodcut, which typically uses oil-based inks. Woodblock printing in Japan ( 木版画, mokuhanga) is a technique best known for its use in the ukiyo-e artistic genre of single sheets, but it was also used for printing books in the same period.

So we did that, and that project took so long that we put off the loft again.Īt one point I started working on it again. But before I could do that, I knew I needed to paint the balusters. I was planning on putting them together and having them be like a built-in on the window wall of the loft. It sat like that on either side of the Expedit for awhile. I would just cover the entire visible sides with a panel of 1/4″ plywood or MDF before installing a face frame. But I looked around and found that these bookcases are the same height as the Kallax (The IKEA Expedit replacement) turned on its side so you can buy them together and recreate this! The depth doesn’t matter that much except for the sides. These ones were free and just happened to be the exact perfect size. ***Update: I’ve gotten lots of questions about where to find bookcases this size. They were the exact height of the Expedit. I flipped it over and attached a shelf to the other side to be the other bottom. Basically I had one piece that had a top (former middle fixed shelf) and a bottom (bottom of the bookcase) and one that had a top (top of the bookcase) and no bottom. I wish I had taken more pictures of this but it was so spontaneous and also a very long time ago. I’m not really sure what inspired this move, but before I knew it, I was literally sawing the bookcase in half.

I moved it around from wall to wall, but never really liked it anywhere. I took one bookcase downstairs to our empty laundry room and left one upstairs. So one day, I was sick of looking at the two bookcases flanking the Expedit and started moving furniture around. But the white paint I had was such an ugly white…it turned this ugly yellowish cream over time and looked terrible. They were laminate to begin with and I had painted them white when we moved to Utah. We had these two bookcases for the last four years, given to us. Sorry for the crazy picture with a zillion kids…it was the only one I could find of everything still in its original form. I love it! It turned out exactly as I pictured it in my head…don’t you love it when that happens? It was one of those things where no one thought it would work and I kept saying, “Don’t worry–it’ll look good.” and eventually it did.

It gives back a brand-new string that contains all of the characters from the starting index (inclusive) all the way to the ending index (exclusive) of the original string. Let’s say we want to extract the substring “World” from the text “Hello, World!” We can accomplish this by using the substring() method, as seen below: To learn about codingĪ section of a string can be extracted using the Java substring(begIndex, endIndex) function. ![]() To understand how the substring() method works, let’s look at an example. How Does the Method of Substring() Operate? Below, we’ll look into the use in more detail. Note: The startIndex is inclusive while the endIndex is exclusive in this instance, and the string is an object of the String class. String.substring(int startIndex, int endIndex) The original string remains unchanged since strings in Java are immutable, and the method returns a new string. Using the larger string as a starting point, a smaller string can be created. ![]() Substring in JAVA is a frequently used Java.lang function.

There is a second wave of the pandemic in many countries across the globe and the effect is not going to wane soon even with the approval of vaccines. This will result in the increased hospitalization in ICU where there is an increase in the adoption of capnography instruments. Coronavirus mainly affects the respiratory system in humans and the situation of the people who are already suffering from respiratory diseases such as COPD will further worsen upon contracting the Virus. The sudden outbreak of the coronavirus will also be a key factor driving the global market growth of capnography devices. Many new products are expected to be launched in the market with the collaboration of major players and with the emergence of various new technologies. The new device, the Vitals Plus monitoring solution has received FDA’s nod for its use in a clinical setup. In another development, in September 2020, Capsule Technologies, one of the major players in the market for capnography devices unveiled its novel device based on connected capnography-monitoring technology. Collaborations among key market players and the launch of new products with next-generation technologies will be the major boost for the growth of the market in the years to come.įor instance, in May 2020, Masimo and Philips entered into a partnership wherein the former’s measurement technology will be used for IntelliVue MX-series multi-parameter monitors. ![]() The devices are increasingly preferred over oximetry and are associated with many clinical benefits in improved post-operative monitoring. Modern devices are highly accurate and durable maintaining standard oxygen levels and these devices can also be easily sterilized. For instance, Molecular correlation spectroscopy along with photodetectors is installed in mainstream capnography and these developments are expected to drive the demand of the market during the forecast period. ![]() The device manufacturers have made huge strides in developing advanced capnography devices in recent years.

The global capnography devices market was valued at USD 515.6 million in 2020 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.9% during the forecast period. through all of this, i tried to pay attention to the toe situation. i had quite a variety of terrain including asphalt, grass, gravel, wooden walkway, big rocks, mud (one slick spot where i almost biffed), sand, and trail. I ended up going for a 5-10 mile run yesterday afternoon. Barefoot runners and hikers looking for additional options to the Vibram FiveFinger line.īelow are additional photos of the Merrell Trail Glove:.If this sounds like you, you have to try out the Merrell barefoot line If Vibram FiveFingers are gloves for your feet, the Merrell Barefoot line are like Mittens. If you wear mittens while snowboarding or skiing.Individuals who love to run in the rain and looking for a bit more protection around their toes.Has wide feet and is looking for a running shoe to let his toes spread out, but isn’t quite sure about standing out with FiveFingers.Who Should Buy These?īased on my experience I would suggest these shoes to anyone that: Merrell’s barefoot line fits this very important criteria. When that area of the shoe hits the ground it places the weight of the strike toward the mid-foot instead of allowing you to stay on your toes.Ī major aspect of barefoot running is having proper running form so that you protect yourself from injury. I credit this to the thicker soles at the toe area of the shoe. I never found myself running up on my toes and only felt a few heal strikes toward the ends of my runs as I got tired. Running FormĪs I mentioned earlier, the Vibram soles with a zero-drop heel and the large toe box make for a great running combination that helps you keep good running form. I do feel that they work similar muscles to other barefoot shoes as I could feel the lower calf and foot muscles ache a bit towards the end of a run. This happened twice with the Trail Gloves during the week and it really puts a damper on that portion of the run.Īfter a week of running in the Trail Gloves I have no blisters, rubbing, or soreness. There is nothing worse during a long run where you’ve hit your stride than to have to stop and tie your shoes. I understand now why Vibram FiveFingers offer shoes with laces sparingly. The only draw back for long runs were the laces. My feet stayed dry and didn’t slip inside the shoe at all. In light rain I didn’t slip or slide at all on asphalt, concrete, or the grass. At each and every turn the Trail Gloves have performed great. I’ve varied up my running routes to see how they feel in city routes, trails, and wet and slippery conditions. I’ve spent the last week running in the Merrell Barefoot Trail Gloves and have loved every minute of it. I usually wear size 11 US and the Trail Gloves in 11 US fit perfectly. Part of the difficulty with FiveFingers is finding the exact size to fit your feet. It seems that Merrell shoe sizes compare nicely to the average shoe. It seems like a lot of tread when compared to the tread on my KSOs, but I didn’t find that the extra tread distracted too much from the ground feel. The soles on the Trail Gloves feature a significant amount of tread that help the shoe grip to the trail, rocks, and other outdoor obstacles. These soles are an added benefit to the shoe as very few companies can come close to the quality and durability with making soles that can match what Vibram offers. Vibram SolesĪs we’ve mentioned previously, the Merrell Barefoot line features Vibram soles. The shoe is made up of high quality material and has held up fine during my more aggressive runs. ![]() I also felt that the laces help keep my feet back in the heal of the shoe when moving about while allowing my toes to take full advantage of the Toe Box. Most of the Vibram FiveFingers and other barefoot shoes elect to go without laces but I think they fit well with the Merrell line – as it seems Merrell put an emphasis on making this line of shoes appear to be similar to “normal” shoes. The first thing I noticed about the Trail Gloves is that they come with laces. There is a special protective coating around most of the toe box that helps protect the shoe from more rugged terrain or when you may drag it across the ground during a run. The shoes feature a mesh cloth for most of the makeup of the shoe with an inner-lining made of soft fabric. I elected for the Olympia & Black style and feel that while these shoes sport the “Trail” name, their style follows that of many modern running shoes. Merrell sells the shoes in four colors: Yellow & Black, Amazon (Another shade of yellow), Black & Orange, Olympia (Blue) & Black. It has a much more traditional shoe look than some other barefoot shoes but still has all the benefits you’d expect from a minimalist shoe. The Trail Glove model is a great looking shoe. |
