Starfire protests she is convinced that Blackfire is here for a friendly visit, and she says she'll give her another chance. He warily reminds her of all the terrible things Blackfire has done to her, and that she's a dangerous criminal on the loose. None of them are enthusiastic about Blackfire's presence (considering she's evil), only angry and disapproved, and Robin uses his grapple gun to pull himself and Starfire into the kitchen. Starfire enters the living room and announces to the other Teen Titans that her sister has come to visit. Starfire becomes filled with excitement and asks Blackfire if she will join her in some sister bonding activities. Once all of the robots are defeated, Blackfire tells Starfire that she came by just for a visit. Starfire quickly starts fending off the robots in defense of her sister. Starfire looks up to see her older sister, Blackfire, in handcuffs and fighting robots. Suddenly, a giant, black robot comes crashing into her garden. The episode begins one morning, with Starfire singing and happily watering all of her flowers in the Titans Tower yard. The other Titans think that Blackfire is playing another one of her tricks, but Starfire is sure that this time Blackfire is serious about reviving their sisterly love. Blackfire pays a surprise visit to her sister, Starfire, saying she wants to spend some quality time with her. ![]()

Cheers, Everyone.Loveland Police Department arrests Thursday While we might not be the sleepy mountain-top micro distillery of your instagram dreams, we can still offer you the best spot in Denver to get just the right amount of wasted at 2am with your new best friends. We’ve got live music, chill weeknight vibes and a crazy weekend dance scene. If you’re looking for a more laid back experience, you can sign up for a cocktail class, take a free tour of the distillery, or even coordinate a private event in our intimate barrel-room. At Mile High Spirits, every bottle of liquor behind our bar is made in house, from scratch. You can ask one of our talented bartenders for a creative spirit infusion or get yourself a generously poured speakeasy quality cocktail. Our downtown Denver tasting room sports a kick ass patio, yard games and delicious local food trucks. If you ever want to be part of that party, we’d be more than happy to have you. It’s not uncommon to find our head distiller sporting a bright pink hawaiian shirt with bedazzled cut off jean shorts rocking out to euro club music in the rackhouse or to see one of the owners riding a forklift screaming Josh Groban songs and he ascends into the upper reaches of the warehouse. ![]() We’re proud of every bottle that goes out our door, we just aren’t so serious and premium about everything. And if you learn a little about the distilling process along the way, even better. It’s our mission to help you and the people you care about have a damn good time with damn good drinks. We want to return to an age where you can actually pronounce what you’re drinking and not go minorly bankrupt just by walking through the craft liquor aisle. This is all well and good, but it should be noted that one’s ability to discern tasting notes in these “handcrafted” spirits usually depends on how well the taster’s beanie matches their flannel and not necessarily on the spirit’s actual merit. They all talk about how great their product is and how internationally trained their owners are and how “time is the secret ingredient”. The harsh truth is that most of these “craft” spirits aren’t really any different than their competitors. Now the shelves are stocked with $90 bottles of bourbon demanding your praise because ol' grandpappy found this particular recipe in a Rocky Mountain coal mine during the dark times. Spirits existed to taste good and help you have a good time, not to be hung in an art gallery. Gone were the days of you and a handful of your goofy college buddies clinking god knows what cocktail over the firepit while daring Kevin to jump nude into the neighbor’s pool. We started our business shortly after craft spirits decided they needed to be serious for whatever reason. Our goal was to create the best spirits possible using high quality, local ingredients as the foundation for recipes that would be brought to life by the most experienced craftsmen we could find - All without being obnoxious snobs about it. In 2011 Mile High Spirits set out to inspire a new standard in craft distilling. ![]() ![]() ![]() The first cell also includes Run Below and all subsequent cells include Run Above: When the Python extension detects a code cell, it adds Run Cell and Debug Cell CodeLens adornments.

![]() ![]() He has still not brought the product of (del X by del p) to zero and keeps close to the Heisenberg`s value of 1/2 of Planck`s constant value as far as possible. What he had ventured is to find a refined value of polarization states of light in different axis, to minimize errors. There is still no way that you can know accurately the two quantum states simultaneously, is agreed by the researcher Steinberg in the article. This had been beautifully explained by light diffraction rings experiment when light is passed through two adjacent pinholes,where actual travel route of photons through the pinhole number 1 or 2 could not be ascertained. In quantum states (i.e.in infinitesimally small states of matter), classical accurate measurement will not work. That means that if the error in position (x) is less, that is when measured accurately, the corresponding error in momentum (p) measurement increases correspondingly to keep the equation correct. The product of error in observation of both position (x) and momentum (p) measured simultaneously is fixed by an equation of 1/2 of Planck`s constant or even more, in Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle. Steinberg, 6 September 2012, Physical Review Letters. Mahler, Alex Hayat, Yasaman Soudagar and Aephraim M. Reference: “Violation of Heisenberg’s Measurement-Disturbance Relationship by Weak Measurements” by Lee A. However, the experiment shows that the act of measurement doesn’t always cause the uncertainty. There’s still no way that you can know both quantum states accurately at the same time, states Steinberg. In the strongest case, the induced fuzziness was little as half of what is predicted by the principle. ![]() They found that one measurement of one polarization did not always disturb the other state as much as the uncertainty principle predicted. The researchers compared weak measurements with strong measurements multiple times. By Heisenberg’s principle, there’s a limit to the certainty to which both states can be simultaneously known. The polarization state along one plane is intrinsically linked to the polarization along the other. The group didn’t measure position and momentum, but its polarization states. This reveals its position, but imparts energy as well causing it to move.Īephraim Steinberg of the University of Toronto in Canada and his team of researchers have performed measurements of photons and showed that the act of measuring can introduce less uncertainty that is required by Heisenberg’s principle. Heisenberg explains this principle by exposing how a scientist trying to take a photograph of an electron, has to bounce a light particle off its surface. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Posting from multiple industries dilutes your expertise: We discussed earlier that clients want to see you’re an expert in their field, so only include writing samples for your ideal customer’s industry/niche.Potential clients won’t see your best samples: If there are 20+ writing samples, clients probably won’t see your best 3-4 writing pieces.There are a few reasons why posting a lot of sample writing pieces isn’t a great idea: Key elements that make freelance writing portfolios memorable.Ī mistake that many freelance writers make is publishing too many writing samples from multiple industries.What they look for when reviewing different freelance writers.The outcomes they’re trying to achieve by hiring a freelance writer.We’ll discuss positioning in more detail below, but for now, take note of: These insights helped better position my services to charge more and close more clients. I ended up getting on a call with one of the people, and they showed me the entire pitch deck from the agency they hired and explained why they hired that agency. For example, I asked this group if anyone had hired a content agency for $30,000 plus and what they were looking for in that agency. You can also ask in Slack groups and other private groups for feedback. You can see that these responses are incredibly valuable as they tell me both how I should position myself and specific pain points these hiring managers experience. I did this when I was looking to scale from a freelancer to a marketing agency owner, and you can see that I received some very helpful feedback: The best way to do customer research is talking to your ideal audience and asking them what they’re looking for in writers. Once you’ve defined your ideal customer, do some research to understand their pain points and what they’re hoping to achieve by hiring a writer. The company size you intend to serve (startups, enterprise corporations, etc.).The industry you want to serve (ecommerce, B2B, local businesses, bloggers, etc.).The type of writing you offer (blog writing, sales writing, social media writing, etc.).In addition, your messaging will be very generic and ineffective if you try to target multiple customer personas. Unfortunately, hiring managers are looking for specialists, and you’ll dilute your credibility as an expert if you advertise that you service multiple niches. Identify Your Target Audience and Nicheīefore adding any content to your new website, define your ideal client.Ī common mistake most freelancers make is trying to target too many potential clients. I recommend setting a deadline of three to four days to complete your portfolio website so that you start closing clients quickly. The longer it takes to complete your freelance writer portfolio, the longer it will take to close new clients. The key is to start working on this today. If they can’t immediately find the answers they’re looking for, they’ll likely just eliminate you from the list of candidates.īelow, I’ll show you how to create a freelance writer website that clearly answers these questions and helps you win new clients. In addition, make sure it’s super easy for potential clients to navigate the portfolio site and quickly find the answers to those questions. Bonus: Does this person understand the larger business goal we’re trying to accomplish?.Is this person reliable (e.g., adheres to deadlines, consistently delivers results, etc.).Has this person done similar jobs in the past in similar industries/niches?.Does this person have the writing skills I’m looking for?.Does this person offer the services I’m looking for?.So instead of stressing about details like design colors, optimize your writing portfolio to clearly answer the following questions: They really just want to see if you’re the right fit for their job. They don’t care about portfolio design, your profile image, or other presentation details. Hiring managers are strapped for time and want to hire a writer quickly. What Hiring Managers Want In a Freelance Writing Portfolio ![]() I’ll also show some writing portfolio examples to give you further inspiration.

![]() ![]() While the decent run time on 3C would be nice, I picked up my ML50 because the output and reach were great for the $33 Walmart price. I run AA's in my light because I have them. Toyota used D-cell NiMH cells in the Prius), C cell rechargeables typically have no more capacity than a AA. D cell NiMH cells are available and have very good capacity (10,000 mAh vs ~2000 for a AA. I've found my ML50L (3C light) to be a great balance between output, throw and cost. I think it can be handy to have a very bright initial output then a lower (but hardly dim) long run time. Having looked at this a bit I've found that the more compact lights that claim over ~300 lumens typically can not sustain that output for any length of time. It also has very good reach (Maglites are typically good in that regard) and costs about $20. It produces ~180 lumens of output which doesn't seem like much given 2AA battery lights do as much. The new 2C Maglite ML25_ looks like a nice light. I wish the flashlights could be lined with plastic or something to stop the batteries from eating the aluminum The batteries seem to leak more quickly if they get hot such as the flashlight having been left in a closed car during the summer the batteries can still have been working and have destroyed the flashlight a couple weeks later It might not be as heavy as the regular bulb ones and its reflector and focus mechanism is different. New electronic 3 D cell model has 3 brightness settings and can be made to blink to scare rabbits. The flashlights made up until about 10 years ago seem to have slightly heavier thickness of the body and the tailcaps don't seem to be identical with the newer ones The old flashlights are like 1950 Plymouth technology and performance but sturdy. It is really safer to keep the batteries out of the flashlights until they are used. Need to see if the newer red looking Duracells are any less leak prone than the previous ones Sometimes you can get them out from the D cell lights by skewering with a screw but the AA are mostly lethal to the flashlights. Seeing the links on Mags website, I would guess that it is possible that if you have name brand batteries, you may have some luck doing this. I would guess that there are just so many battery manufacturers now, that would be hard to do. ![]() They used to figure out what batteries were in them and had a deal with the battery guys themselves, to get you a replacement flashlight. Over the years I have sent several back to Mag because of this. There is links to battery manufacturers about the issue. I just looked on their website and it looks like maybe the program has been discontinued. Not that long ago, mag light had a program that would replace the flashlight for you, because of battery leakage. It is not that they still do not make a great light, it is that retailers choose to sell their old perfected lights.Ībout the battery corrosion. I think the problem with Mag lights is they made a name out of a great flash light, then let every body sell it. I have many, but there are others on the market that are much better. Of course taping the tube on a wood bock can also help get the batteries free. Try the screw trick from the front or vinegar poured in from the front. That will let you pull the switch and bulb assembly out. There is an allen screw in the center of the button. If you can't get the tail cap off a D cell maglight, pull the rubber button cover off. Also, common vinegar dissolves the corrosion but you need to keep it off circuit boards. The incandecent stuff is hardly worth it in my view.Īs for getting batteries out, if you can get the tail cap out try a screw into the back of the battery and pull. The older Mag LED stuff is generally outclassed. Really for ~$10 the Solitaire is a very good light.Īnyway, the current generation of Mags are actually quite good and have a nice balance between output and commonly available batteries. The Solitaire LED light is great and has more reach than my 120 Lumen 1AAA light. ![]() Yes, they are brighter for a bit but they constantly dim over time. ![]() Note that many of the Defiant and other cheap but bright LED lights are unregulated or poorly regulated. Anyway, at $33 (Walmart) for an ML50L few will touch it. A number of lights using 18650 cells will have more output but you have to get 18650 batteries and they still generally are more about total output vs throw. Few lights at a reasonable price will have better throw. However, I like a number of the newer LED Maglites. The older Maglites make me a bit sad simply because I know they used to be great but compared to just about any LED light they aren't very good. ![]() |
