People with Venus in Gemini tend to seem young for their age. ![]() If they have a freedom-valuing Venus in Gemini hiding underneath, however, they may at times be frustrated with their boring life, though they are probably the top networkers in whatever safe professional field they have chosen. On that level, a Taurus Sun or a Cancer Sun is often someone who picks a stable job and lifestyle. Your Sun sign tends to show the obvious qualities of your personality in the world, things on the level of what your co-workers or classmates would know about you. Earth sign Taurus focuses on physical security, and water sign Cancer focuses on emotional security. Harder combinations are Venus in Gemini with the Sun in Taurus or Cancer. While this can go too far into crowd-sourcing life decisions that really should be more personal, this combination has a gift for bringing others on board when there is a job to be done. People who have Venus in Gemini and the Sun in one of the fire sign options, Aries or Leo, are more capable of taking action than Venus in Gemini might otherwise be, but they are more open to input from others than a fire sign Sun might ordinarily be. Partners might be surprised by the melancholy that pops out on occasion, but, as with everything else, Venus in Gemini just needs to talk it over. With the two-sidedness of Gemini, however, they might have another side that struggles to make sense of the more difficult parts of life. People who have both the Sun and Venus in Gemini are chatty and upbeat. That means people who have Venus in Gemini can have the Sun in only the following signs: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, or Leo. Venus stays within two signs of the Sun in terms of relative position to Earth. Venus Basics: Which Sun signs can have Venus in Gemini? ![]()

After a sentence explaining how you went about answering the question, give a couple of sentences about what you found. Give a sentence of context to explain why your research question matters for this journal’s readers. Most journals give information about who their readers are under the “About this journal” link on their website. You must link your work to the journal’s target audience. In your next paragraphs, you’ll essentially give a version of your abstract that has been made even more concise and argue the case that your findings are of interest to journal readers. If the journal has article categories, such as “Letters” or “Research Articles,” specify that here, too. “We are submitting our manuscript, “Title of manuscript here,” for consideration for publication in Name of Journal Here. Do not assume that the editor is male or use the opening salutation “Dear Sir.” If you cannot find the editor’s name, use “Dear Editor.” Open with a submission statement Be quite careful with titles and when in doubt, use “Dr.” in all cases. Most journals have a listing of their editors on the website, including name, email address, and proper title.

Below are some tips for writing compelling cover letters that encourage the editor to consider your manuscript for review. They ask authors to tell them why their work would interest readers of the journal, and if the letter isn’t convincing, the manuscript may even come back to you without review. For some publishers, this letter is a form that emphasizes only that you have no conflicts of interest, have not submitted your paper to some other journal, and that all authors agree to the submission and content of the manuscript.īut some journal editors want more than this information.

Nimble, Tooĭespite its size, the Defender doesn’t drive like a big SUV it’s easy to maneuver and place where you want. Both engines have better estimated fuel economy than the Lexus GX 460, another off-road-capable luxury SUV, which is powered by a 301-hp V-8 and rated 15/19/16 mpg. The mild-hybrid drivetrain makes about 100 hp more than the base four-cylinder and gets slightly better estimated gas mileage: It’s EPA-rated 17/22/19 mpg city/highway/combined versus the base engine’s 17/20/18 mpg rating. Full-throttle kickdowns take a bit longer, however. The transmission is also responsive press the gas pedal halfway down for more power when cruising on the highway and it immediately kicks down. The automatic makes the most of the inline-six’s considerable power, and it never felt like it was in the wrong gear. ![]() While it doesn’t have the kind of forceful high-speed passing power the Range Rover’s available supercharged V-8 produces, it’s still swift.Ģ020 Land Rover Defender | photo by Christian Lantryīoth the mild-hybrid inline-six and the standard turbo four-cylinder pair with an eight-speed automatic transmission and permanent four-wheel drive. It incorporates an electrically driven supercharger that increases boost pressure at low engine rpm, resulting in 406 pounds-feet of torque from 2,000 rpm. The six-cylinder’s 395-horsepower rating is nothing to sneeze at, but it feels like there’s even more power under the Defender’s hood the engine delivers effortless acceleration that belies this SUV’s considerable bulk. The four-door Defender is a big, heavy vehicle that’s as tall and wide as some full-size SUVs. We’re looking forward to testing the Defender off-road in the future, but for now this review covers what it’s like as a daily driver. We weren’t able to test the Defender off-road, but judging by the number of Land Rovers we see cruising around Chicago and its suburbs, the urban jungle is as natural a Land Rover habitat as an actual jungle. The as-tested price of our SE version was $72,180, while the First Edition’s as-tested price was $66,475 (prices include a $1,350 destination charge). We also spent some time in a 2021 two-door First Edition. Our primary test vehicle was a 2020 four-door SE trim level with the optional mild-hybrid drivetrain, which features an inline-six-cylinder engine that’s both turbocharged and supercharged. The Defender is offered in two-door (90) and four-door (110) form. Related: Land Rover Defender: Is the 3-Row Version Any Good? for the 1997 model year, “Defender” is a legendary Land Rover nameplate that has embodied capability much the same way as Jeep’s “Wrangler.” More expensive than Land Rover’s entry-luxury compact SUVs but not as pricey as the brand’s family of Range Rover models, the Defender sits alongside the Discovery in Land Rover’s lineup. It’s also surprisingly nimble and refined on the street, though its design emphasizes ruggedness over traditional luxury cues. ![]() Versus the competition: For a mid-size luxury SUV, the Defender’s claimed off-road capabilities - including a 35.4-inch wading depth - are considerable. The verdict: The Defender delivers modern Land Rover SUV qualities, like impressive power and extensive off-road technology, in a distinctive shape that plays off the past. Perhaps 8 - 10 years from now, I might like something like this, who knows, but not now. I on the other hand (enthusiast mindset), think it's 'meh'. My brother found it nice because he loves sitting around and not driving as such. I only test drove it because the wife loves the Camry. If this was priced on par with the Superb, I am pretty sure it would sell more than it does now. Even if I have to replace the DSGs twice in the Superb's lifetime, the ownership cost of the Superb including fuel over a period of 10 years will be lesser compared to the Camry. It's 8L over and above the similarly-spec and more fun to drive Superb and just for a couple of more lacs I get the insanely fun to drive 3 series. The sticker price of 52.5L OTR Bangalore, is simply too high, even for Toyota's reliability.Black plastics on the door and dash seem to be from one segment below, not from a car that costs 5 million rupees on road. If it's floating, it has to be classy with rounded contours, not boxy. Average HU, and IMHO sticks up like sore thumb.OK speakers despite being a JBL with Clarify technology.However, it was quite a chiller in the front. I felt the ac in the rear was just OK despite being a car with 3 zone climate control.You cannot do high-speed lane shifts on a fast highway run, you need to plan it a bit.It just doesn't respond to the pedal to metal expectations. Don't get me wrong, it's a fast car and you will not notice the speed building up. The moment you press down on the A pedal, the engine groans and its lethargy is noticeable. If you love to have fun driving just don't bother about the car.Just like the Superb, you don't feel you are driving a lengthy car around, it's easily manoeuvrable.Loved that black wood insert in the dash and the leather door pads.I am sure I will be comfortable on 8 - 10 hour highway runs. I loved how everything was perfectly positioned for my reach and how I could rest my arms on the door pad and the center console comfortably. Perfect seating contours both in the front and in the back.Fantastic long-distance cruiser, especially if you are chauffeur driven.Put together solidly, gives you the impression that it can withstand a decade-plus abuse easily.Spacious, my 6' 1" brother was able to sit comfortably behind me (I am a 6 footer).I can only imagine how good it should be on a highway run. The HU was consistently showing 15+ in dense but mostly moving city traffic. It's the same when you are waiting in traffic or crawling. I refused to believe it was running, the SA mentioned it starts on the battery. ![]() I was surprised when I started the car as I could not hear the sound.This is one car that has nothing to love about or nothing to hate about (barring the sticker price).

You will have to use a software like MSI Afterburner utility to keep an eye on GPU’s usage and temperature. While the tests are highly advanced, you can’t monitor many essential metrics with the FurMark application. It’s in fact so intensive that it brings even the powerful GeForce GTX 1080 Ti to its knees just after a few cycles of tests. As a result, 3DMark puts a ridiculous amount of load on the GPU to push it to extreme limits. Of all the tests, I find Time Spy the most demanding because it takes full advantage of the new DirectX API such as asynchronous compute and multi-threading. Some of the popular ones are Time Spy, Fire Strike, Tomb Raid, and more. Similar to Unigine, it also brings a number of benchmark tests to measure your GPU’s capability. 3DMarkģDMark is another popular way to stress test the GPU that also offers a benchmarking score.

It was now simply a matter of sending it the proper firmware. Thankfully, it's not! As it turns out, when the Cricut is in update mode (activated by powering the device off, holding the stop button while powering it back on, and holding it down until the device beeps and all the lights turn on), it will use whatever firmware is sent to it, regardless of whether it is newer or older than the one installed. Before using it however, I had to downgrade my Cricut firmware to version 2.1 or 2.3, something I read was impossible. I eventually managed to find version 2, as 3 does not work with the Cricut. I then turned my attention to Sure Cuts A Lot, which included the Cricut drivers. I was able to find the right version, but not the plugin required to use it with a Cricut (pccplugin.dll).
