If the Wall Street Journal report is true (similar things have been reported by Bloomberg and featureless, buttonless fingerprint-reading technology has been patented by Apple), the development could hurt thousands of independent smartphone repair companies around the United States, and it threatens the very concept of phone ownership.

So Swaye regularly weathers the mostly featureless drive between Lancaster and LA. In the broiling dun desert strip mall expanse, he's an anonymous Angeleno exile; in the city, he's a buzzing artist whose work has indelibly shaped what may be the wheezing twilight years of Los Angeles rap.

The full conversion occurred in two stages: the gig at Pizza Express (after which I sought out the older albums) and the release in 2003 of "Drive By." As the title suggests, "Drive By" is a journey through an audible landscape that is almost entirely flat but never featureless.

All of which stood to reason, but Izza's question still reminded Kai of that accumulated mess and time, and of the postcards she rarely answered, featureless and glib, each containing some charming anecdote about poetry readings or fruit-related confusion in street markets, best wishes to Mom, utterly sealed, bloodless.

After purchasing her apartment in 2012, Lyons spent a year in a rental down the street, the better to oversee every aspect of the loft's transformation from a drab artist's studio, with yellowing floors and featureless walls, into a heavily accessorized, sumptuously textured home that might feel familiar to her many acolytes.

Some of the most unexpected works on view include the mixed-media, anatomically accurate dinosaur sculptures of the German artist Julia Krause-Harder (born 1973) and the circular-form abstractions in oil pastel and pencil on paper by the Austrian Sigrid Reingruber (born 1980), which bring to mind featureless faces or strange fruits.

In the later period, after Johns has "dropped his reserve," he cites the broken physique in such images as the diseased male body found in the "Temptation of St. Anthony" panel of Grünewald's Isenheim Altarpiece (1512-1516); a Cubist portrait by Pablo Picasso portrait; and a featureless face holding a lemur in "After Holbein" (1993).

He selected paintings by four modern African-American artists—Horace Pippin, Jacob Lawrence, Romare Bearden, and Charles Wilbert White (a W.P.A. muralist who was an inspirational teacher of Marshall's in college)—and three African sculptures: a Dan mask, a Senufo oracle figure, and a Bamana Boli (a featureless animal encrusted with "sacrificial" matter, including blood).

Thus, one radiated particle at a time, the black hole blinks out of existence, ultimately leaving no trace: Hawking's calculation indicated that the radiation is "thermal," consisting of a featureless, random spread of energies that encodes no details about the collapsed star that formed the black hole, or about anything else of interest that might have fallen in.

Trachtenberg first got widespread attention online for a short film based on the Portal video games — which also happened to open with a woman waking up in a featureless concrete room under mysterious circumstances — and while he's continued to work on short-form, web-based projects 10 Cloverfield Lane is remarkably deft work from a first-time feature director.

A seamstress sews the incorporeal bodies of vanished women into ball gowns; a middle-aged mother, recovering from gastric-bypass surgery, is haunted by the featureless, fleshy mass of her former self; a husband tries to uncover the secret behind a green ribbon that his wife wears around her neck, despite her pleas for him to desist.

" Two kinds of slime girl-like creatures that appear in the Sailor Moon series include Peropero, a shape-shifting demon minion that's a mass of green gel sometimes in the form of a bunny, sometimes a woman, and Jamanen (Jellax in the English dub), a "nude, near featureless lady with a red coloration and supple body.

With plastic "jibs" no bigger than two £25 coins stacked on top of each other, bigger amorphous blobs made of resin or fibreglass and brightly coloured "volumes"—cubes, cylinders, tetrahedrons and stranger, compound shapes—that might be the size of a sofa, he will make this featureless, overhanging wall into a sublime physical challenge for some of the world's best sportsmen and -women.

I imagine that this is what it would feel like to be the antagonist in one of Drake's songs, one of the featureless exes whose only purpose is to support him, to hold a mirror up to him, stuck in a relationship where sweet nothings are tossed off for the sake of a clever phrasing, where you are little more than furniture in someone else's movie. ♦

Working from a script by frequent collaborator Paul Laverty, Loach ratchets up the tension with nerve-racking intensity Although the film is set in the dispiriting environs of Newcastle's most featureless neighborhoods, the filmmaker takes care to inject his own brand of warmth and humor: Fans of Loach's delightful 2009 comedy "Looking For Eric" will particularly appreciate a hilariously profane argument between Ricky, a die-hard Manchester United fan, with one of his customers.

WFAN is as janky as it has ever been, with the same neutered guitar squalls and featureless male vocals singing corny jingles and redundant updates and endless reeling skeins of canned ads ("Rocket Mortgage by Quicken Loans proudly supports Mike Francesa"; "Guys Don't Talk About Antiperspirant") and host-read ads (Infiniti of Massapequa, Marvin Windows And Doors) and an ad Francesa recorded for a "longtime friend"'s credit union on Long Island that was somehow both.

Another Schlieren photo from NASA that uses the edge of the sun as its uniform background; BOSCO uses the disc itself Another Schlieren photo from NASA that uses the edge of the sun as its uniform background; BOSCO uses the disc itself Previous background-oriented Schlieren imaging efforts for viewing the distortion patterns of planes in flight have been shot top-down with a featureless landscape as their background, or bottom-up using the edge of the sun (as you see above).

The one time I ever went to Blackheath it was one of those purgatorial journeys that Citymapper cheerfully tells you will "only take 70 minutes!" and involves a train and then a bus, and bafflingly I found myself at the end of a bus route with still a 20-minute walk to go and it was just down this endless featureless road that only had a petrol station on it, and then getting out of Blackheath I seemingly got lost for hours on some sort of in-London moor they have there as the sun set gauzy behind me, and I am convinced Blackheath is actually some sort of time and space-bending Bermuda triangle in the outskirts of the city that is impossible to truly escape from, so in answer to the question of what there is to do locally, I would say: "Buy a big bag of crisps from the petrol station so they let you have a piss there, then call an Uber and get the fuck out of dodge"; Alright, how much are they asking?
