The striker is usually held in place by two screws. The striker plate is located on the doorjamb and receives the latch when locking the door. With the screws out, you should be able to pull the latch system through the side of the door.You might have to pry the latch plate gently to free it from the door. Then, use a Philips-head screwdriver to unfasten the screws. Locate the mounting screws attaching the latch plate to the door edge.To disassemble the entire lock mechanism, you would need to remove the latch plate on the door slab. Once you unfasten the screws, tag the interior knob to slide it off the spindle and disconnect it from the exterior knob. A spindle connects the interior and exterior knobs.Grab the knob itself, then, using a Philips-head screwdriver, turn the screws anti-clockwise to free the knob assembly from the door.If your knob has visible screws, all you have to do is unfasten them to take out the lock system. You should see screws at the top, sides, and/or bottom of the rose.ĭon’t worry if you can’t see the screws-in the next steps will show you how to remove a door handle with no visible screws. To locate the mounting screws, check the collar, also known as the ‘rose’ that surrounds the knob on the interior side of the door. Many door handle systems come with visible screws, making it easy to remove the doorknob and latch. Not to worry though-follow these steps and you should be able to complete this task in fifteen minutes or less. How you go about removing the handle system will depend on how it is mounted on the door.

Varieties of papers were available on the market. Mostly, I developed photos at night in my darkroom. Black and white photo papers were cheap enough to experiment with it. When I was a teenager, I printed many black and white photos in my own dark room with a manual enlarger. Modern inkjet-compatible photo papers are different than traditional photo printing papers. But, no one can imagine photo print without photo paper. Even non-commercial inkjet printers are able to produce outstanding image quality. Printing a photo gets much easier than ever before. Normally 300dp i is used to maintain a standard resolution. Resolution of any photo in printing technology is measured in dpi (dots per inch). Clarity and sharpness of digital photo increase with MP. Good to know that one million pixel makes a megapixel which is the basic unit of any digital photo today. But in modern digital photo printing, the quality of image may vary with increasing printing size. Well-focused photo merely lacked information when printed in very large size. We could print any desirable sizes from the negative. In my time, there was not any concept of megapixel. To understand the concept of modern photo print, you must have a clear understanding of MP (megapixel), because we are dealing with digital photography and digital printing system. Those who exercise photography and experiment with it use to print regular to poster size photo. For most people, 4X6 and 5X7 are pretty common sizes. Printing images after a weekend tour is a charm mixed with excitement. Today, how many of us really bother to print after taking a photo with a high-end smartphone or DSLR camera? Needless to say, there are still few people who really love photography and are in search of good printing lab. Digital imaging system changed the whole concept of photography, except some fundamental parts like framing and exposure. Many years before when I started shooting with a small pinhole 35mm camera, there was no chance of viewing the result without printing or at least developing the negative. Till the late 90s, this was an essential part of photography. Your Definitive Guide to Photo Print Sizes ![]() ![]() Set it to only pause on requests and responses to and from the target site. The next thing I do is configure the proxy intercept feature. ![]() Here is what my configuration settings look like for Burp Suite.Ĭonfigure Intercept Behavior – Burp Suite Tutorial This allows me to easily switch back-and-forth between various proxy configurations that I might need during different engagements. I also prefer to use a proxy switching addon such as “ SwitchySharp” for Google Chrome. This ensures I don’t accidentally pass any personal data to one of my client’s sites such as the password to my gmail account for example. #ProTip I use a separate browser for web application testing. Navigate to and ensure your IP address is coming from your testing environment. Configure your browser’s proxy settings to use Burp Suite. Now Burp Suite is configured to route traffic through your outbound SSH tunnel. Type in localhost for the host option and 9292 for the port option. From the “Connections” sub-tab, Scroll down to the third section labeled “ SOCKS Proxy”. Navigate to the Options tab located near the far right of the top menu in Burp Suite.

Its size is half of the screen (320x240) and the last parameter true allows antialiasing of this texture. Line 2: renderTarget is a new RenderTarget object, which is in fact a texture, that can be used as a texture to make a bitmap from it or even arbitrary shapes could use it, this way we can achieve complicated clippings very easily, we don't need to restrict ourselves to rectangular clippings. Notice that this dummy is not even added to the stage. Line 1: toRender is a dummy Sprite, all the sprites that we want to clip will be added as a child to this Sprite instead of the stage. ![]() RenderTarget=RenderTarget.new(320, 240, true) See for reference about the usage of renderTarget.įirst we add the following code right before the for cycle: toRender=Sprite.new() In this step we change the code in the following ways.

From now on we assume that you are familiar with this example and know how it works, so experiment a bit with it if you need. You should open it or start a new project with the same properties (320x480 logical dimensions etc.) and copy the code below. The set-upįor simplicity we modify an example that comes with Gideros, the Drag Me example. This tutorial was made during the Sharebruary program of Gideros offering free limited licence for people creating tutorials during February of 2014, more info here:. I think reading this tutorial is also a good way to understand better some other features of Gideros (object oriented programming, sprite hierarchy, etc.). This tutorial should help you to use renderTarget in many other ways as well, not just simple clipping. As it's not evident how, I decided to make this tutorial to explain the details. On the other hand with the renderTarget feature you can actually do any kind of clipping. In Gideros you can do many things very simply and fast, yet clipping is an important feature that is not yet implemented in a straightforward way. ![]() Nevertheless this tutorial remains to be a good introduction on how to use renderTarget. Remark: since the original publication of this tutorial, real clipping capability was added to Gideros, thus now it's easy to clip using the Sprite:setClip function, see details. ![]() This tutorial is assuming a beginner level knowledge of Gideros, although if you are familiar with any programming language/framework, you should be able to understand most of the codes and the tutorial.

The photographs are haunting documents of ordinary people, including children, learning to live their lives wearing these odd contraptions.” Burns, the New York ophthalmologist who amassed the collection, governments created programs, movies, and photographs “to increase citizens’ comfort using their masks at home, at work, and at play. These photographs will join more than 250 others in the new book, Masked Fear: The Psychology of Gas Warfare 1918–1941, which is currently the subject of a Kickstarter campaign. The masks are fitted with microphones and earphones so that operators can hear and speak to callers.” A third shows London switchboard operators working in gas masks the original caption states that the operators “are being trained to use special gas masks so they can remain at their posts in an emergency-even if their switch room is full of gas. In another, surgeons at Moscow’s Botkin Hospital operate in gas masks. In one photo, a ballerina dons a gas mask in front of a mirror. The extent to which gas masks were promoted as an essential part of everyday life is evident in an extraordinary collection of images from the Burns Archive. In the Soviet Union-which had suffered the majority of gas-related casualties in the previous war-no more than 10 percent of the population had one. In Germany, France, and Italy, masks were available, if not as widely distributed. The fear of potential gas attacks wasn’t limited to Britain. The clattering of keys stops, as each one unboxes her gas mask and, chin first, pulls it over her face. “It may be a little irksome at first, but you’ll soon get used to it.” The film then cuts to a room of typists. “Put it on for 10–15 minutes, one day a week,” says the British Pathé announcer. People were instructed not only to carry their gas masks, but also to practice wearing them. “Everybody Can Be Fitted With Gas Masks in London Town!” 1935. ![]() With war once again on the horizon, Britain and continental Europe began taking early precautions. The estimates of total casualties from this form of chemical warfare are staggering: 88,000 dead and 1,200,000 injured. In 1938, before war had begun in Europe, the British government issued 35 million “General Civilian Respirators.” It had been 20 years since the end of World War I, when chlorine gas-and, later, mustard gas-had first been used. The vast majority of people watching this newsreel in Britain at the time would have had a gas mask. “You all have a gas mask, and you ought to carry it in order to practice wearing it.” “Some of us have been inclined to forget about our gas masks,” he chides, while jaunty music plays in the background. In 1940, British Pathé issued a newsreel titled “ Do You Carry Your Gas Mask?” In it, an unidentified employee from the Ministry of Home Security gently, in clipped tones, lectures an audience on the importance of carrying, and wearing, gas masks. ![]() |
