As a result, the wing can be made narrower, which improves efficiency at cruising speeds by reducing drag.

Another crash followed before the climb; this crash was caused by riders' bunching together on a road made narrower by parked cars on either side. The most significant rider caught in this crash was Philippe Gilbert; others were Julián Arredondo and Bob Jungels (both ). Gilbert got up slowly, with his shorts and jersey ripped. He abandoned shortly afterwards.

The smooth design of the carapace would be used again in Alien 3 and Alien: Resurrection, although made narrower with a longer muzzle and more prominent chin. This design would be kept in Alien versus Predator, and abandoned in Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem in favor of the ribbed design. Throughout their appearances, human-spawned Aliens have been shown to have different numbers of fingers.

Maserati A6GCM "interim" or A6SSG wearing the Siam racing colors, those of Prince Bira The 1953 version was the work of Gioacchino Colombo who modified the car significantly: now with a nearly engine, new suspension and improved brakes. The body was also reworked and made narrower and the car received an oval front grill. This version is known as the "interim" A6GCM or A6SSG. The A6GCM foreshadowed the next model: the 250F.

The front end featured a full-width die-cast grille, while the two-piece front and rear bumpers were promoted to cut repair costs. The C-pillars were made narrower and the tail fins were now smaller. Station wagons with two rows of seats came with a conventional tailgate (roll down rear window and drop down gate) while three-row models received a new side-hinged door. All station wagons included a standard roof rack.

In a third phase the defensive structures are reinforced and the entrances are made narrower. During this period, the caprine species remain predominant and increase in frequency, being accompanied by the emergence of cheese molds and the increase in weaving-related ceramics. The conclusions regarding the remaining species are similar to the previous phase. A significant shift is observed in the ceramics, with the Estremadurean lower Chalcolithic style become vestigial and being replaced by the Estremadurean middle Chalcolithic style.

Some nozzles are designed to prevent the motorist selecting the wrong fuel. The nozzle on diesel pumps is supposed to be larger so that it cannot fit into the filler pipe on a vehicle tank designed for gasoline. However, the larger diameter diesel nozzles are not an actual requirement, and many diesel pumps have been fitted with standard gasoline nozzles. Also, the nozzle for leaded gasoline is wider than for unleaded, and the fill pipe on vehicles designed for unleaded-only was made narrower to prevent misfueling.

In the case of quarter-comma meantone, in addition, where the major third is made narrower by a syntonic comma, the tone is also half a comma narrower than the major tone of just intonation, or half a comma wider than the minor tone: this is another sense in which the tone in quarter-tone temperament may be considered a mean tone, and it explains why quarter-comma meantone is often considered the meantone temperament properly speaking.Barbour 1951, p. x and pp. 25-44.

It was finally put into practice during the 1860s. The many branches of the Danube were removed, and a straight course was created away from the city centre. The branch near the central city was made narrower and has been known under the somewhat misleading name Donaukanal (Danube Canal) ever since. During that period, the population of Vienna increased sharply, mostly because of immigration. Censuses were conducted regularly from 1869 onwards, which showed an all-time high of population in 1910, with 2,031,000 inhabitants.

Original image to be made narrower Scaling is undesirable because the castle is distorted. Cropping is undesirable because part of the castle is removed. Seam carving Seam carving (or liquid rescaling) is an algorithm for content- aware image resizing, developed by Shai Avidan, of Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories (MERL), and Ariel Shamir, of the Interdisciplinary Center and MERL. It functions by establishing a number of seams (paths of least importance) in an image and automatically removes seams to reduce image size or inserts seams to extend it.

The ore was taken to a railway siding west of the station by a tramway. It is not clear if horses or steam locomotives were used. In 1919 an adit was driven into the old quarry face and iron ore was mined using the pillar and stall method from then until 1926. In the latter stages the pillars holding the roof up were made narrower and after the mine was abandoned some of the tunnel roofs collapsed, causing sink holes or depressions in the ground.

The church is named after St Ouen (or Audoen) of Rouen (Normandy), a saint who lived in the seventh century and was dedicated to him by the Anglo-Normans, who arrived in Dublin after 1172. It was erected in 1190, possibly on the site of an older church dedicated to St. Columcille, dating to the seventh century. Shortly afterwards the nave was lengthened (but also made narrower) and a century later a chancel was added. In 1430 Henry VI, Lord of Ireland, authorised the erection of a chantry here, to be dedicated to St Anne.

The horizontal tail was made narrower, with straight taper and all ply covered, placed far enough forward so no rudder cut out in the now horn balanced elevators was required. The canopy was lengthened and made as a single piece of better aerodynamic form. Twin shoulder release hooks, placed just behind the wing leading edge, were added for Y-end towlines. The modifications added about 50 kg (110 lb) to the empty Orao IIC; the improved aerodynamics raised the glide ratio from about 32:1 to 36:1.

Patsy Rodgers, the first Stampede Queen in 1946, is seen here as the 2008 Stampede Parade Marshal Smithbilt Hats, the official hat maker for the Calgary Stampede, produces the Calgary White Hat in straw, canvas, Merino wool, and 100% rabbit fur. The straw and canvas models are typically selected by tourists, with a retail price of around CAD$25 per hat, while the rabbit fur felt model, at CAD$225, is the one presented to visiting dignitaries by the mayor. The brim of the hat is wide and curved. The brim is made narrower for women's hats.

Fuselage shaping was similarly changed with the introduction of the Whitcomb area rule. Whitcomb had been working on testing various airframe shapes for transonic drag when, after watching a presentation by Adolf Busemann in 1952, he realized that the Sears-Haack body had to apply to the entire aircraft, not just the fuselage. This meant that the fuselage needed to be made narrower where it joined the wings, so that the cross-section of the entire aircraft matched the Sears-Haack body. The Convair 990 had particularly obvious anti- shock bodies; modern airliners usually have more subtle shaping for area ruling.

In 1996 engine was further modified to meet EURO2 emission standard, modifications included multipoint injection system, larger camshaft bearings and larger intake/exhaust valves, which further improved power output and efficiency of engine. In 1999 engine received last major modification. Engine block was reinforced and modified to fit larger 78mm crankshaft, valvetrain and lubrication system was modified to fit hydraulic tappets. As there was no need for distributor (MPI used ignition module mounted to cylinder head), valvetrain cover (in previous engines unchanged since 1964) could be made narrower, moving accessory belt closer to engine, so engine could be fitted to VW Lupo.

The excavations showed that the ditch had been cleared out and reshaped and the entrance through it made narrower in modern times. Collingwood claimed to have identified a number of structures, represented by postholes, and identified a "cremation trench" near the centre of the site. Bersu, however, contradicted most of Collingwood's findings, arguing that the posthole features were not of archaeological significance, and he found no evidence of cremation burning, although he accepted that there might be a disturbed grave. However Grace Simpson, the daughter of the excavator F.G. Simpson, has queried Bersu’s work and largely rehabilitated Collingwood as an excavator.

Note the bell-up playing position for the horn in the "Quoniam", which begins at 45:40: The use of valves, however, opened up a great deal more flexibility in playing in different keys; in effect, the horn became an entirely different instrument, fully chromatic for the first time. Valves were originally used primarily as a means to play in different keys without crooks, not for harmonic playing. That is reflected in compositions for horns, which only began to include chromatic passages in the late 19th century. When valves were invented, generally, the French made narrower-bored horns with piston valves and the Germans made larger-bored horns with rotary valves.

In his 1922 paper, Carson presented a negative opinion of narrowband FM, which occurs when the maximum frequency swing is made narrower than the audio bandwidth. Later, Edwin Armstrong managed to demonstrate that FM can be advantageous if the frequency swing is significantly wider than the audio bandwidth. From 1917 to 1925 Carson analyzed the effects of filters on amplitude modulation via operational calculus, thus allowing telephone system designers to predict crosstalk in multiple calls over a single pair of wires. He published a series of papers on this subject in the Bell System Technical Journal, culminating in his 1926 book Electrical Circuit Theory and Operational Calculus.

On 23 May 2019, Dash again summited Everest with two others, but became ill on the descent and died just above the balcony of Mount Everest. The cause of her death was the unusual congestion near the summit of Mt Everest because of a narrow climbing window made narrower by severe weather conditions and the Nepal government issuing permits to several hundred climbers. At least 11 climbers — many of them veteran mountain climbers like Dash — from Nepal, Europe, United States and India died during the 2019 climbing season in April and May 2019. Donald Cash from Utah in the United States and Anjali Kulkarni from India were among those who died in the same week as Dash.

During the rule of the Venetians the Church of St. Maria was built in the Old Town in 1510, which was turned into a mosque, Mosque of the Sultan Selim II as soon as the Turks conquered Ulcinj in 1571. It used to be the so-called Xhamia Mbretrore – Imperial Mosque, as it did not have any Wakf from which it could have been financed at the beginning, so that its employees were paid from the state budget. Hajji Halil Skura added a minaret in 1693 made of nicely cut stone, in the lower part, on a rectangular base, which was made narrower on top. The religious purpose of this mosque ended in 1880, when the Montenegrins conquered Ulcinj.
