The mountain range is where the Indian plate presses up against the Eurasia plate after a collision 50 million years ago.

The slightly stiffer wings made for the X3s have a slight, sweeping outward curve to presses up against the folds of your ear.

One side of the child's face presses up against her; on the other, a growth the size of an orange protrudes from the socket where her eye should be.

On one August afternoon, the structure's clapboard walls seem to be floating amid the dense cloud of flora that presses up against them: Delphinium, baptisia, fragrant mint and sprays of Queen Anne's lace are alive with heavy pollen-dusted bees.

You can almost see Maren — like Raymond Chandler — cutting each typed page into three strips and requiring each strip to contain something delightful (startling simile, clever dialogue, brilliant description) offered to the reader as recompense for a world that presses up against you all raw and aggressive and dangerous.

A pump is used to provide a flow of air into the chamber that the ball drops into. The airflow pushes the ball along the chamber to rubber ring, or gasket, known as a "restrictor". The restrictor has a hole through it that is sightly smaller than the ball, which the ball presses up against. This seals the hole, so air pressure builds up in the chamber.

A trainer consists of a frame, a clamp to hold the bicycle securely, a roller that presses up against the rear wheel, and a mechanism that provides resistance when the pedals are turned. In a wind trainer, the roller drives fan blades that create air resistance. These are typically the least expensive and noisiest trainers. Magnetic trainers have magnets and a conducting flywheel operating as an eddy current brake.

The vessels are held in place simply with wood packing. The smaller air vessels are a proprietary design that took some heavy research to perfect. They are sealed by the pressure of the gas, as the pressure rises, a slackly threaded cap presses up against a sealing ring which is screwed down with another cap, thus making an airtight seal. Directly aft of the air vessels is the fuel tank which is ringed by the main forward trim tanks.

Bluth felt uncomfortable with the main character's name, thinking "Fievel" was too foreign-sounding, and he felt audiences wouldn't remember it. Spielberg disagreed. The character was named after his maternal grandfather, Philip Posner, whose Yiddish name was Fievel. (The scene in which he presses up against a window to look into a classroom filled with American "school mice" is based on a story Spielberg remembered about his grandfather, who told him that Jews were only able to listen to lessons through open windows while sitting outside in the snow).

That tightening method uses an adjusting ring on the lower end of the barrel where it presses up against the receiver. The Model 241 uses a different method of tightening the barrel to the receiver (a dual-sided nut with an interrupted- screw threading rides inside the opening in the front of the receiver and, by selecting how deeply the nut sits in the receiver, it controls how tightly the barrel fits against the receiver when the barrel is fitted to the receiver. This mechanism of the Model 241 is not visible unless the barrel is separated from the receiver so that the opening in the front of the receiver can be viewed).

Water Tender ANF 10, from the USDA U.S. Forest Service, Angeles National Forest in the San Gabriel Mountains of the Southern California, Los Angeles Area. This Type II Tender is staffed by two crew members. "There are three categories of interface fire: The classic wildland/urban interface exists where well-defined urban and suburban development presses up against open expanses of wildland areas; the mixed wildland/urban interface is characterized by isolated homes, subdivisions and small communities situated predominantly in wildland settings; and the occluded wildland/urban interface exists where islands of wildland vegetation occur inside a largely urbanized area." Expansive urbanization and other human activity in areas adjacent to wildlands is a primary reason for the catastrophic structural losses experienced in wildfires.
