And it's more waterproof now — even when dropped in beer.

The access tunnel was made more waterproof and its cooling system got an upgrade.

Sure, today's iPhone doesn't have a home button, but the phones are more waterproof than ever.

There is evidence of Apple adding rubber to the SIM tray to make a more waterproof seal around the phone.

The Apple Watch gained GPS and a more waterproof casing, but didn't get a killer feature that would shift it from a nice accessory to a must-wear.

Before Hurricane Sandy, the Transportation Authority relied primarily on sandbags and plywood to defend the subway from flooding and did little proactively to make the system more waterproof.

In this case, Apple is betting that reducing the number of holes in the phone will let them build smaller, more robust, more waterproof devices and people won't miss their old earphones much once they're used to going wireless.

Removing the buttons would also allow Apple to make the iPhones more waterproof without needing to use rubber gaskets around the inside of the buttons to block out liquid the way it does on the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus.

There are two Tiles to choose from: The Tile Mate is better for short-range tracking for smaller items like your keys, and the rugged Tile Sport, which is more waterproof and has a Bluetooth range of 353 feet (twice that of the Mate), is designed to withstand the elements on outdoor items (like a bike).

Heavier and more waterproof clothing, including ski masks, were added to the regular issue provided to submarine crews. The boat itself was fitted out for wartime service and, in January 1942, S-23 moved north to Dutch Harbor, Unalaska.

Cannon fuse is a visco fuse that is most often thicker, steadier burning, and often extra coated to be more waterproof. Most cannon fuses of high quality can burn while under water. Cannon fuse is normally red or green in color. Flying fish fuse is a modified type of visco-type fuse used in fireworks.

Used to process salt, salt pans were large, ovular, shallow clay pans that could hold from 10 to 26 liters. A heavy slip made them more waterproof. They were most likely formed from a mold, possibly a basket. They were lined with grass or textiles to keep from sticking to each other or the mold before firing.

Both of these balls reported colours. In the development process of the Questra, Adidas tried to create a lighter and more responsive ball. By manufacturing the new ball from five different materials and enveloping it in polystyrene foam, Adidas made the Questra more waterproof and allowed for greater acceleration when kicked. Consequently, the ball became softer to touch and ball control was improved.

A table green wood-stained and varnished with three layers of polyurethane varnish Polyurethane varnishes are typically hard, abrasion- resistant, and durable coatings. They are popular for hardwood floors but are considered by some wood finishers to be difficult or unsuitable for finishing furniture or other detailed pieces. Polyurethanes are comparable in hardness to certain alkyds but generally form a tougher film. Compared to simple oil or shellac varnishes, polyurethane varnish forms a harder, decidedly tougher and more waterproof film.

Dresden, NATO RTO-MP-076 2001; KN4-1-KN4-15 This problem has been alleviated somewhat in recent years with the advent of more waterproof/breathable fabrics, such as Gore-Tex, which allow some humidity to pass through the fabric while blocking most external water. A traditional bivouac bag typically cinches all the way down to the user's face, leaving only a small hole to breathe or look through. Some modern fabrics are sufficiently gas-permeable that they can be safely zipped up around the user's head in order to shut out the elements completely.

A simple tented shelter Tent fabric may be made of many materials including cotton (canvas), nylon, felt and polyester. Cotton absorbs water, so it can become very heavy when wet, but the associated swelling tends to block any minute holes so that wet cotton is more waterproof than dry cotton. Cotton tents were often treated with paraffin to enhance water resistance. Nylon and polyester are much lighter than cotton and do not absorb much water; with suitable coatings they can be very waterproof, but they tend to deteriorate over time due to a slow chemical breakdown caused by ultraviolet light.

In 1993 the Art and Technology faculties moved into a new purpose- built building which also had the effect of creating the "quadrangle" which has become the center of the school. During the 1980s and 1990s the North Wing's eclectic collection of portables came together with the addition of a gallery to make the area more waterproof. In late 2004 the Robinson Center saw classes begin for Music, Drama and Food Technology courses, with the building replacing many classrooms across the school that had previously been used for these purposes. The former Drama Center behind the North Wing was demolished soon after the Robinson Center was completed.

In this part of Europe they were usually made out of the oak trunks, as the oak is hard and much more waterproof than the other trees. Forest engineers calculated that for an oak to grow so much that you can carve the Jelav monoxyl out of it, in the Podrinje and Jadar regions it had to grow from 230 to 300 years. The Ruđer Bošković Institute in Zagreb tested the specimen and estimated that the tree was cut between 1695 and 1915. Based on characteristics, the way the boat was made and the fact that by the 1860s proper ships replaced completely momoxyls on the Drina, it is estimated that the Jelav monoxyl was made between 1740 and 1760.

This phase included extensive driving through jungles and on sandy beaches, amphibious testing and being left to the elements unattended for 14 days. The M113 outperformed the FV432 in almost every aspect tested; its smooth sides and roof stowage proved far superior when driving through overgrown jungle, the lower track pressure and better track design proved superior on sand and it was significantly more waterproof. When conducting amphibious trials, whilst slightly slower in the water the M113 required significantly less time to prepare. The FV432's amphibious preparations included the removal of every inspection plate and the erection of a large rubber flotation screen, the latter was seen as a major drawback as it completely blocked the driver's vision and the rubber screen was easily punctured by debris or vegetation.
