Kapwing also supports a large library of text animations as well as special effects that you can apply to your GIF. When you export your image, it will be processed as a PNG which you can save directly to your device or share on social media! This image file will have fully or partially transparent sections that you removed in the Studio, so it's ready to overlay on other images or videos or use as a custom emoji in platforms that use them. You can also round the corners of your image using the Corners slider in the Studio. Then, use the Erase tool to remove any part of your photo, using both the Magic Wand and precision Erase tools. ![]() In the Studio, click the Transparent option under Background Color to make your canvas transparent. Start by uploading any image to the Kapwing Studio from your device, or paste a link from anywhere on the web. Kapwing supports a background removal process that allows creators to create a transparent PNG from a JPG. While any JPG can be saved as a PNG image, one main advantage of the PNG file format is that it supports an opacity channel, which will allow PNG images to be transparent while JPGs are not.

Comodo also stated that it was actively looking into ways to improve the security of its affiliates. The attack was immediately thwarted, with Comodo revoking all of the bogus certificates. Though the firm initially reported that the breach was the result of a "state-driven attack", it subsequently stated that the origin of the attack may be the "result of an attacker attempting to lay a false trail.". Moxie Marlinspike analyzed the IP address on his website the next day and found it to have English localization and Windows operating system. The attack was traced to IP address 212.95.136.18, which originates in Tehran, Iran. Nine certificates for seven domains were issued. On 23 March 2011, Comodo posted a report that 8 days earlier, on 15 March 2011, a user account with an affiliate registration authority had been compromised and was used to create a new user account that issued nine certificate signing requests. Though this showdown did not take place, Comodo has since been included in multiple independent reviews with AV-Test, PC World, Best Antivirus Reviews, AV-Comparatives, and PC Mag. Symantec responded saying that if Comodo is interested they should have their product included in tests by independent reviewers. In fact you have to go all the way back to 2006 to find an AV roundup where viruses were missed by some companies." Our most recent AV review this year showed no functional difference between free and paid programs in terms of stopping viruses, and it's been that way for many years. GCN'S John Breeden understood Comodo's stance on free Antivirus software and challenging Symantec: "This is actually a pretty smart move based on previous reviews of AV performance we've done in the GCN Lab. In response to Symantec's comment asserting paid antivirus is superior to free antivirus, the CEO of Comodo Group, Melih Abdulhayoğlu had challenged Symantec on 18 September 2010 to see whether paid or free products can better defend the consumer against malware. Melih Abdulhayoğlu invited top browser providers and certification authorities to a round table to discuss the creation of a central authority responsible for delivering digital certificate issuance best practice guidelines.

Simple syrup is a great ingredient in the Mexican espresso martini. Ingredients in an Mexican espresso martini are tequila, coffee liqueur and espresso. What Ingredients are in a Mexican Espresso Martini? Ultimately, go with what tastes you like and experiment with different types of tequila and find the one that you enjoy the most in your Mexspresso martini. Some people may prefer a Blanco tequila for a more intense flavor or an Añejo or Mezcal tequila for a more aged, smoky taste. However, it’s worth noting that personal preference plays a big role in choosing the right tequila for your espresso martini. Reposado tequila also has a subtle sweetness and notes of vanilla and caramel that complement the bitterness of espresso and the sweetness of other ingredients in the cocktail. Reposado tequila is aged for at least two months and up to a year in oak barrels, which gives it a smoother and more complex flavor than Blanco tequila. When it comes to choosing a tequila for an espresso martini, a Reposado tequila is a great choice. What Tequila is Best For An Espresso Martini? So why settle for a boring old martini when you can spice things up with a Mexican Espresso Martini made with tequila? Not only is this cocktail sure to impress your friends and family, but its unique combination of ingredients makes it a standout option for those looking to enhance their cocktail menu. ![]() In Mexico the common name for an espresso martini is a carajillo where you can get it made with tequila, rum, Licor 43 or brandy. This flavorful and bold drink is the perfect blend of rich espresso and smooth tequila, creating a one-of-a-kind taste that will leave your guests asking for more. ![]() In some cases, the cone can last for several weeks. As there are just a few joints, this kind, of course, is quite powerful, provides a smooth ride, and requires less maintenance trains may travel on it at greater rates and with less friction. Rails are welded together using flash butt welding to make a single continuous rail that might be a few kilometers long. Most modern railways utilize continuous welded rail (CWR), sometimes known as ribbon railings. One of these factors is correctly using rail joints when fastening multiple rail lengths together with a fishplate. While a relatively straightforward process, there are many things engineers and workers have to keep in mind when laying down rails. Once this process is complete, railroad spikes and fasteners, also called chairs, are fixed to the sleepers of wood or bolted down with a chair bolt.Īt this point, the rail is ready to be lowered onto the sleepers and fastened to the spikes. This process can be done manually or by the use of specialized machines, but in both cases, workers make sure that the central point of the sleepers and the rail track centerline are in alignment. Next, the railway sleepers are placed on top ballast and spaced appropriately. The bottom ballast is made up of primarily coarse sand and is spread evenly and level to provide a slightly malleable but firm base for the railway crossties, also called sleepers, and the next layer. This process is called “ballasting”, and is divided into two steps: laying the bottom ballast and then the top ballast. The next step of this process involves laying down a layer of material for the rails to sit on in future steps. These systems typically utilize pipes, carrier drains, and sometimes attenuation ponds to ensure that proper drainage occurs and subgrade deterioration and erosion are avoided. One of the first things crews typically do is grade or install drainage systems to prevent the railway from waterlogging. The first step of laying down a railroad track is not very obvious, happening below the surface. Railroad Track Installation and Construction Being on the tracks is considered trespassing and illegal and destroying a coin is illegal because it’s federal property. When an object is run over by a train, the momentum and weight will launch it as a dangerous projectile. Is putting a coin on the track illegal? Yes on two counts and it’s also dangerous. The coin is too light to affect the train’s momentum or direction. That and moving at a high velocity, while the coin is stationary, the momentum of the train is much more than the coin. A train weighs thousands of pounds, and a coin is merely a few grams. In this case, the two bodies involved are the train and a coin. Based on mass and momentum and the principle of conservation of momentum comes into play and when two bodies with masses interact, the total momentum remains conserved. A coin is not significant enough to cause a train to run off the rails and will have no effect. We added this one for fun, and of course, a coin can’t derail a train. The full story of Utah’s 1938 Burgon’s Crossing school bus accident Can a coin derail a train? The fatalities from the accident tragically included the driver and 25 children. The law goes back to a 1938 fatal accident in Utah where the driver stopped at the railroad but did not visually confirm if a train was coming due to blizzard conditions. But only for school buses, not regular commuter buses. Snopes does report this is partially false and that the gauge was inherited from England because English engineers designed the first US railroads and rails were largely imported from England until the Civil War. It’s commonly believed and was even written about in Popular Mechanics, that the gauge or width between tracks descended from Imperial Roman war chariots, which created ruts in roads that would destroy wagon wheels that weren’t the same width. federal safety standards allow the standard gauge to vary from 4 ft 8 in (1,420 mm) to 4 ft 9 1⁄2 in (1,460 mm) for operation up to 60 mph (97 km/h). ![]() The US standard railroad gauge is 4 feet, 8.5 inches (Gauge means width between the two rails). Before discussing construction, here are some commonly asked questions: How wide are railroad tracks? Railroad track construction has undergone plenty of reform since the 19th Century, and this article summarizes how railroads are constructed. Often overlooked, however, is the technology behind the thing that keeps these trains moving in the right direction: the tracks. Since the first railroads were built almost 200 years ago, locomotive/train design and technology have advanced significantly, from steam-powered engines to super-fast maglev trains. |
