Pottery - These behemoths of Birmingham offer huge VPs, but at a huge cost and need to plan. Each level of manufactured goods provides unique rewards, rather than just escalating in VPs, making it a more versatile (yet potentially more difficult) path vs cotton.

![]() The ends of the tubing can also stretch out and degrade over time with use, which can impact suction performance of the pump. ![]() There is no way to sterilise the tubing and it’s important to keep the tubing completely dry because moisture can cause damage to the motor. However, should moisture ever enter the tubing, we recommend replacing the tubing. The backflow protector should prevent moisture from entering the tubing. If not changed regularly, they will impact suction strength, and risk mould and bacteria in your pump, and possibly your milk. The backflow protector is the heart of a closed system pump and protect your baby’s milk from contaminants and bacteria that could cause harm, so take great care of these. Wash it in hot soapy water and let it air dry and ensure it is completely dry before use again. Inspect this part regularly before you pump because a torn, wet or damaged backflow protector diaphragm can allow moisture into the pump motor, causing irreparable damage and the potential for mould and bacteria to fester. Replace these every 2 to 3 months if you pump once a day, and replace every 6 to 8 weeks if you pump more frequently. Just like the valves, the diaphragms in the backflow protectors can stretch and degrade over time, impacting suction. Sterilising also can make these wear a lot faster, so always have spare valves on hand to switch when you notice you have a suction problem.īackflow protector diaphragms need to be replaced every 3 to 6 months Duck valves last a little bit longer than valve membranes, but still tend to be easily damaged or worn from use and washing. Replace these every 2-3 months if you use your pump less than once a day, and replace every 3 to 4 weeks if you pump more than once a day and about every 2 weeks if you exclusively pump. If your milk collection kit has a silicone duck valve, it needs to be replaced frequently as well. Sterilising can also cause very fast deterioration, so always have spares on hand to change as needed.ĭuck valves need to be replaced every 2 weeks to 2 months The valve membrane needing replacement causes the vast majority of suction issues. If your pump loses suction on one side, or you experience less suction when pumping, these membranes need replacement. If you ever see that the membrane doesn’t lay flat against the valve, it’s time to replace it, but it’s worth noting that damage is rarely visible in these small pieces. Replace these every 2 months if you use your pump less than once a day, and replace every 2-4 weeks if using more frequently. The membranes are made of silicone and over time will stretch and lose elasticity, which can impact suction power. The little white flaps on the valves need to be replaced regularly. Valve membranes need to be replaced every 2 weeks to 2 months Here’s a rundown of the pump parts you will need to replace on a regular basis, and how often to do so. If you notice that your pump seems to have lost suction, the first thing you should do is take a look at your parts, particularly the valves, and inspect for wear, fraying or stretching and replace if needed. Usually these problems can be easily resolved with a new part. Unfortunately, lots of mums will notice that the pump isn't working as well as it did, and think there's something wrong with their actual pump, or (even worse) that there's a problem with milk supply. ![]() After a while some parts wear down and can fray or become over stretched and this results in a loss of suction when you are using your pump. Lots of mums are not aware that some breast pump parts do need replacing regularly to maintain performance. ![]() ![]() From September 18 to September 24, 2022, the Marshall University Libraries will be observing Banned Book Week with a display in the Drinko Library and an updated website. Online-only stores and international stores are NOT eligible to receive kits. General Information Marshall University does not ban books The information is provided to let people know what has been banned/challenged elsewhere. We ask that each bookstore branch fill out its own form. Supplies are limited and are fulfilled on a first-come, first-served basis. A Seattle-area school board voted to remove To Kill a Mockingbird from student reading lists this week, just days before news surfaced that a Tennessee district had, earlier this month, banned the Pulitzer Prize-winning graphic novel about the holocaust, Maus, from its curriculum. The form to receive a Banned Books Week kit is now closed.

Repeat steps 16 through 19 on the other side.Ģ0. Once the control arm has been removed, proceed to release tension on the spring and remove from the vehicle.ġ9. To remove the upper control arm, undo both bolts on the engine bay side of the shock tower.ġ8. Use a spring compressor to compress the spring, relieving pressure on the upper control arm.ġ7. Remove the shocks from the vehicle by removing the upper and lower shock mounts and the shock tower brackets.ġ6. To remedy this problem, we suggest using part numbers 3197 which will rotate the brake calipers out of the way.ġ5. When using drop spindles, the brake calipers can come in contact with the upper control arms during steering.It may be necessary to shim the cross shafts. ![]() These control arms are 3/16” shorter than stock in order to provide a larger range of adjustment.CPP also recommends the tubular lower arm conversion kit part number 6267TCA-K Options: CPP recommends using the coilover spring and shock kit part numbers 6267COK-SA for single adjustable shock and 6267COK-DA for double adjustable shock. These may be installed after the vehicle has been professionally aligned to ensure the alignment cannot go out of spec during hard driving. Optional Installation Tip: Provided with every Mini Sub-Frame Kit are a set of lockout plates (#CP10134). Repeat steps 10 through 13 on the other side. Failing to do so may result in the bolts slipping and going out of alignment.ġ4. Make sure to use a washer between the cam washer and the mounting surface on each of the four sides. The front of the arm goes in the new crossmember and the rear of the arm goes into the factory lower control arm mount.ġ3. Next, use the supplied bolts, washers and cam washers to install the tubular lower control arms. Torque all crossmember hardware to spec.ġ2. If more room is needed to keep the radiator from touching the Mini Sub-Frame hardware, simply remove the front four bolts and nuts then re-install with the nuts on the bottom side of the crossmember as shown.ġ1. Test fit your radiator, checking for clearance against the front four bolts.ġ0. Install the Mini Sub-Frame plate using the supplied hardware in the 10 holes left from the rivets.ĩ. Note: Without access to an air hammer, the same can be accomplished using a hammer and chisel although significantly more effort will be required.Ĩ. Then remove the rivet head with an air hammer and drill out the remains. The most effective method we’ve found for removing old rivets is to cut them down the center with a cutoff wheel.ħ. Each mount is held in place with five rivets.Ħ. Prepare to remove the factory strut rod mounts on both sides. Next, drain the coolant from the radiator and remove it from the vehicle.ĥ. Repeat steps 1 and 2 on the other side.Ĥ. Then remove the front strut rod nut followed by the lower control arm bolt and remove the assembly as one piece.ģ. Installation Note: If you plan to also install CPP Tubular Upper Control Arms (#6267TCA-UK), now would be a good time to remove the brake caliper and tie rod end from the spindle as well.Ģ. A handful of whacks with a large hammer usually does the trick to break the ball joint stud loose from the spindle. Loosen the castle nut on the ball joint stud but leave it installed a few turns. Begin by removing the ball joints from the spindle. CPP also recommends the tubular upper arm kit part number 6267TCA-UK.ġ.

Cycling between the modes with Horizon: Forbidden West the differences were very subtle, with very slightly more shadow detail in FPS mode than the other modes: I saw bigger differences by far with similar modes on LG TVs. ![]() There's also a selection of picture modes keyed to game genres, namely Standard, RPG, RTS, FPS, Sports, as well as a Custom mode that lets you adjust brightness, contrast and the rest manually. It appears along the bottom of the screen and displays current frames per second, HDR status and VRR (which isn't available on the Q60B, so its status indicator will always read "Off). Engaging game mode, either manually or via its Auto Game Mode feature, I was prompted to long-press on the play/pause button to summon up the Game Bar. Gaming: Samsung features its elaborate game display even on less-expensive models like the Q60B. Samsung's Game Bar shows status of frame rate, HDR and more, as well as offering picture settings for different genres (spoiler: they looked pretty much the same to me). The TCL, meanwhile, was superior in pretty much every way to the others, with excellent contrast, deep black levels and powerful brightness that made the Sony, Samsung and Fire TV pale by comparison. Both outperformed the Omni, which showed less high-level detail in snowscapes, but the difference wasn't massive. ![]() The story was similar to the challenging Spears and Munsil 4K HDR Benchmark montage on Blu-ray, where the Samsung looked a bit brighter than the Sony. ![]() The skin tones of Adam Sandler and the basketball players looked a bit flatter and bluer than the Sony, but overall I still preferred the Samsung's picture by a hair. Color accuracy was a bit worse than the Sony but not terrible. The Samsung was also significantly brighter than the Sony in its most accurate picture mode, which made the film's HDR image pop more in comparison. Watching Hustle on Netflix, the black around the credits and the shadows in the locker room were slightly darker and more than the Sony and the Omni. It showed better black levels and contrast than the Sony, along with visibly superior brightness. TV and movies: The Samsung delivered the second-best picture in the lineup overall, beating out the Sony and the Omni. I set up the 55-inch Samsung Q60B next to its direct competitor from Sony, as well as a less-expensive Fire TV and a TCL with superior picture quality specifications. James Martin/CNET Picture quality comparisons The Samsung's light output and anti-reflective screen make it a good performer in bright rooms (or coffee bars). ![]() Next to that are thumbnails for Samsung's free TV service (which I don't care about) and below that a bunch of themed suggested shows and movies (ditto). Below is a tiny string of app tiles for streaming services, and lower still is the now-standard array of thumbnails, headed by a "Recent" input I used (not a recent streaming show or movie, which would have been nice). The upper two-fifths of the screen is devoted to a big ad, matching the first "sponsored" tile, which rotated between Hulu, Prime Video and the Samsung Game Hub "coming soon" on my review sample. Samsung's is almost as bad as LG's in my book, wasting screen space with ads and clutter I don't care about. For the last few years Samsung's smart TV home page consisted of a banner along the bottom of the screen that popped over what you're watching, but new for 2022 pressing the home key summons an all-new Smart Hub menu that takes over the whole screen - just like Roku, Google TV and new LG TVs. ![]() We do have data in the table below for some of the other (older) GPUs. There are a few missing options (e.g., the GT 1030, RX 550, and several Titan cards), but otherwise it's basically complete. You can also see the above summary chart showing the relative performance of the cards we've tested across the past several generations of hardware at 1080p ultra - swipe through the above gallery if you want to see the 1080p medium, 1440p and 4K ultra images. All of the scores are scaled relative to the top-ranking 1080p ultra card, which in our new suite is the RTX 4090 (especially at 4K and 1440p). Where it makes sense, we also test at 1440p ultra and 4K ultra. GPU Benchmarks Ranking 2023įor our latest benchmarks, we've tested (nearly) all GPUs released in the past seven years (plus a few extras) at 1080p medium and 1080p ultra, and sort the table by the 1080p ultra results. The current 2022/2023 results use an Alder Lake Core i9-12900K testbed. Factors including price, graphics card power consumption, overall efficiency, and features aren't factored into the rankings here. The following tables sort everything solely by our performance-based GPU gaming benchmarks, at 1080p "ultra" for the main suite and at 1080p "medium" for the DXR suite. We also have the legacy GPU hierarchy (without benchmarks, sorted by theoretical performance) for reference purposes. ![]() On page two, you'll find our 2020–2021 benchmark suite, which has all of the previous generation GPUs running our older test suite running on a Core i9-9900K testbed. Meanwhile, Intel's Arc Alchemist architecture brings a third player into the dedicated GPU party, even if it's more of a competitor for the previous generation midrange offerings. AMD's RDNA 3 architecture powers the RX 7000-series, with only two desktop cards presently released. Nvidia's Ada Lovelace architecture powers its latest generation RTX 40-series, with new features like DLSS 3 Frame Generation. If you want to see additional GPU testing with recent games, check our Diablo IV, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, Redfall, and Dead Island 2 GPU performance articles. Nothing new since the addition of the RTX 4060 Ti and RX 7600 to the hierarchy. The results are all without enabling DLSS, FSR, or XeSS on the various cards, mind you. Those of course require a ray tracing capable GPU so only AMD's RX 7000/6000-series, Intel's Arc, and Nvidia's RTX cards are present. Our full GPU hierarchy using traditional rendering (aka, rasterization) comes first, and below that we have our ray tracing GPU benchmarks hierarchy. We've also retested a bunch of cards to clear up some lingering oddities from earlier testing. Our latest additions to the hierarchy are Nvidia's RTX 4070 and RTX 4060 Ti, and AMD's Radeon RX 7600. For now, we have the same test suite we used in 2022. We're nearly finished retesting all of the ray-tracing capable GPUs on a slightly revamped test suite, using a Core i9-13900K instead of a Core i9-12900K. Current GPU prices are slowly trending down as well, though the new cards are all holding relatively steady. ![]() Whether it's playing games, running artificial intelligence workloads like Stable Diffusion, or doing professional video editing, your graphics card typically plays the biggest role in determining performance - even the best CPUs for Gaming take a secondary role. Our GPU benchmarks hierarchy ranks all the current and previous generation graphics cards by performance, and Tom's Hardware exhaustively benchmarks current and previous generation GPUs, including all of the best graphics cards. ![]() The difference between the public “for sale” median price and the private “sold” median price illuminates some of the dynamics, Florczyk said. The data point indicates homeowners and real estate agents are listing houses, and then dropping the price to attract buyers.Īpril Florczyk, the founder of 208 Market Real Estate, told BoiseDev that dynamics are shifting – especially in Ada County, which she monitors.

The state with the highest percentage of outbound moves was New York, followed closely by West Virginia. inbound moves showed a balanced number for the first time since 2012. Historically, Washington has registered as inbound since 2014, according to Atlas. Washington last year ranked seventh among top states for inbound moves. Washington state, along with California, also made the list among Top 10 international origins and destinations, according to the Atlas Van Lines report. North Carolina, New Mexico, Tennessee, Rhode Island, Arizona, Alabama, District of Columbia and Texas rounded out the Top 10 inbound destinations in the Atlas report.
