Spencer is joined by his best friend and reluctant sidekick, Gus (Dulé Hill), and his disapproving father (Corbin Bernsen), who ironically was the one who honed his son’s “observation” skills as a child. PSYCH follows the adventures of young police consultant, Shawn Spencer (James Roday), who solves crimes with powers of observation so acute the precinct detectives think he’s psychic – at least that’s what he lets them believe. The film was awarded an Oscar(R) for Best Documentary Short Subject in 2002.įan favorite and USA’s longest running original series on-air, PSYCH returns for its sixth season on Wednesday, October 12 at 10/9c featuring all-new episodes of Santa Barbara’s favorite crime psychic team. The footage, originally shot for a Dick Wolf reality pilot about a New York City police squad, became the basis for the powerful documentary. TWIN TOWERS is an Academy Award(R)-winning short film, directed by Bill Guttentag and Robert David Port, that shares the true story of the profound courage of two brothers, a New York City policeman and fireman. As they journey across America’s vast heartland in the hours and days immediately following the terrorist attacks, Montine and Omar help each other discover the importance of tolerance, redemption, acceptance and hope. When Montine discovers that Omar’s father (Phillip Rhys) works in the World Trade Center she is forced to drive the boy back home to his uncertain future in New York City. In THE SPACE BETWEEN, Montine McLeod (Leo), a lonely flight attendant, and Omar Hassan (Anthony Keyvan, “Lost,” “iCarly”), a 10-year-old Pakistani-American boy, are on a plane that is grounded in Longview, TX, on the morning of 9/11/01. ![]() Both films are part of USA’s Characters Unite public service campaign to combat intolerance and discrimination.

![]() While going all-out is necessary for long stretches or shallow turns, I never felt like Dirt Rally 2.0 expects me to drive flawlessly at maximum speed all the time, as lesser racing games tend to do.ĭirt Rally 2.0’s officially licensed FIA World Rallycross Championship series promises hair-raising action - provided you’re not driving more car than you can handle. The car seems more manipulable at slower paces, which rewards more conservative driving or a focus on simply keeping wheels on the road. It’s usually found somewhere in the blend of tire choice and wear (both new to the game), surface degradation, and the weight and turning radius of the car, of course. It feels like there is more than one way to solve a 4-turn that sharpens into a 2, or those hairpins carved through bare granite in Argentina’s mountains. Sliding through the turns, I am feeling for the edges of a safe speed with every sense I have, including my ass.īut even if Dirt Rally 2.0 lives up to its namesake ancestor, 2015’s Dirt Rally, in how much it demands of the driver, I don’t find it to be tough-as-nails for the sake of it. I was tensing up through every switchback and square turn, trying to will my Peugeot 280 R2 back from the brink of an unguarded shoulder somewhere in Spain. Each car’s handling has such a personality that their manipulation seems to extend beyond the controller’s inputs. I take that for granted from Codemasters, whose Dirt 4 I adored and whose F1 series has become an obsession. There is more than a distinct feel to each of its 50 cars, or even how they perform on three different surfaces, whether wet or dry. Was it yesterday’s hike? The weighted blanket I sleep under? My cheap desk chair? This weekend I became aware of the fact that my ass was really sore, and I had no idea why. ![]() ![]() It’s worth noting that the software works with all Calibrite or X-Rite classic 24-colour targets you don’t specifically need the Passport Duo. This should give more consistent results when processing files shot under different lighting conditions. You can also create a dual-illuminant profile, using raw files shot under daylight and artificial light. The resultant DCP file can then be used in imaging programs such as Adobe Camera Raw or Lightroom.Ĭalibrite’s free ColorChecker Camera Calibration app is simple to use. The latter can be used either as a simple visual reference tool, or to create a colour profile for your camera using Calibrite’s accompanying software. For stills, there’s a pale grey white-balance card, along with a standard 24-colour target. Lanyard: A somewhat gaudily branded blue lanyard comes in the boxĪs with previous versions of the ColorChecker Passport, you get a sturdy black plastic casing measuring 12.5 x 9 cm that will fit easily into a camera bag or pocket, and which folds open to reveal a set of four calibration targets.Compatibility: Calibrite’s software works on both Mac and Windows PCs, either as a standalone application or a Lightroom plug-in.Camera Calibration: You can create both DNG and ICC profiles for your camera using the ColorChecker Camera Calibration app.Targets: Four targets are included: a Classic 24-patch colour White Balance 24-patch Video Colour and 3-step Grayscale (for video).Credit: Andy Westlake Calibrite ColorChecker Passport Duo key features: Google Now did work in AMIDuOS, so it's not due to an inability to run on an emulator but rather an unfortunate glitch.The colour targets are housed in a slim, pocket-sized black plastic casing. Saying "OK, Google" to your computer does nothing except make you think you're going crazy, and even tapping the microphone for voice commands results in a blank-screen glitch in both the Google Now launcher and Andy's custom one. You have to choose between ADW launcher and Google Now, but Google's service works horribly in Andy. Unfortunately, using the custom launcher means you can't use the superhelpful Google Now app, which puts Google Now cards in a new screen and shows you the weather, stock prices and websites related to your recent search results. It comes with a customized ADW launcher as well, so apps you install are automatically put into categorized folders on the home screen. You can launch Android apps from shortcuts in your Windows desktop, copy files between Android and Windows via a shared folder and ES File Explorer, and get push notifications from Android in Windows. The next version of Andy will supposedly allow you to map keyboard keys (for example, use W, A, S and D to move a car in a game).Īndy offers a few interesting additional features to integrate Android with Windows. After pairing my phone with Andy, I found the remote control worked well as a handy replacement for a touch screen, except for a couple of times when the connection timed out. This is a great benefit when you're playing games like Asphalt 8, so you can tilt your phone and use its touch screen to navigate, rather than having to tilt your entire laptop (which would be unwieldy, if yours doesn't have a detachable display). Andy includes useful keyboard shortcuts, so you can do things like hold down the Ctrl key and use your mouse's scroll wheel to zoom in and out, or use Ctrl and your keyboard arrow keys to mimic swiping.Īnother unique ability of Andy is it lets you use your Android phone as a remote control, mirroring the screen on Andy on your phone. If your PC doesn't have a touch screen, however, you can still do most things in Android apps with your mouse and keyboard. Andy would obviously work best with a touch-screen PC, so you can swipe, tap and tilt your screen as you would an Android tablet. Otherwise, this is your standard Android system running in Windows, with full multitouch support and sensor integration. If you hover your mouse over the bottom of your screen, you'll also get some handy tools that let you switch between landscape or portrait mode and full screen or window, as well as select the microphone and camera hardware to use. From the Andy icon in the Windows status bar, you can also set the exact resolution and DPI you want for the window. You can resize the window on the fly, and the app will adjust accordingly. One of the things I like best about Andy is that, unlike other Android emulators, such as AMIDuOS, you're not forced to run the program in either full-screen mode or a fixed-size window. btw suggestion looks good, definitely has most of the features you'd want. I wonder if there's some way of making storyboarding work well with the NLA editor or something - basically during storyboarding you're doing a ton of rearranging and retiming, and most of it is on large groups of keyframes, so having to manually do stuff in the graph editor is a) time consuming and b) very easy to mess up I'd love to use Blender for storyboarding, but currently I'm using Wonder Unit Storyboarder as well, mainly for the ease of retiming and rearranging. Perhaps a storyboarding feature set would merit a dedicated version of the dope-sheet? ![]() It would be great if there was a way to 'parent' keyframes to a common set of properties, so that multiple layers could be moved, scaled, and displayed together. However, they complicate the task of retiming, which I think is the crucial issue for storyboarding. and in this area, GP is great for boarding. I can have a separate layer for characters, backgrounds, props, etc. There's a cool 3D scene creator that is kind of a gimmick, but it's a great feature for people like me that suck at drawing! This is easily doable in Blender with addons like Archipack and Archimesh. Notes, action, and dialogue text boxes that change with the frame Blender has a great audio library already, I imagine this wouldn't be too hard to implement. Quick recording and inserting voice/sound clips. Dope sheets are better for keyframe animation than storyboards. It's easy to lose track of the duration of a panel this way. ![]() In Blender, you have to select all keys and move them multiple times- one for GP objects, once for sound, once more for armatures, yet again for markers, etc. Frames can be dragged and dropped anywhere in the list. This also make it easy to re-time, since you can drop a new frame in and each subsequent frame moves over to compensate. Thus there's never the problem of wanting to edit the panel but accidentally creating a new frame- it's not possible to be between panels at all. ![]() Despite bad performance, I still use it for boarding because of these features:Įasy to rearrange frames, since they are not tied to a timeline, but rather are arranged sequentially and each have their own duration property. It's a great tool, but it can't handle any more than a few minutes of storyboard because it's implemented in JS. I would recommend looking at the UX of the FOSS app, Storyboarder. A way to export selected frames from the Sequencer (using markers) as images/PDF for printing, with scene title, frame number, text, dialog or comments (Could be using an addon)įorgive me for interjecting if this isn't a discussion page. A quick way to select a Scene strip in the Sequencer and switch to that scene in the Storyboarding Workspace. Determine wich Scene to use on a particular workspace, to avoid the need to change the scene every time you switch from Video Editing Workspace to Storyboarding Workspace to work on the Grease Pencil object. A new **Template for Storyboarding** that include a new Storyboarding Workspace to draw and edit frames and also a 2D Full Canvas, Video Editing and Rendering Workspaces. Things needed for the Storyboard workflow using Grease Pencil: ![]() ![]() The wood's association with weaponry was so well known that the Greek name for it was used as a synonym for "spear" in poetry during the fourth and third centuries BCE. Ĭornus mas was used from the seventh century BCE onward by Greek craftsmen to construct spears, javelins and bows, the craftsmen considering it far superior to any other wood. This density makes it valuable for crafting into tool handles, parts for machines, etc. mas is extremely dense and, unlike the wood of most other woody plant species, sinks in water. While Cornus mas flowers are not as large and vibrant as those of the Forsythia, the entire plant can be used for a similar effect in the landscape. The species is also grown as an ornamental plant for its late winter yellow flowers, which open earlier than those of Forsythia. The fruit is an oblong red drupe 2 cm long and 1.5 cm in diameter, containing a single seed. The flowers are small (5–10 mm in diameter), with four yellow petals, produced in clusters of 10–25 together in the late winter (between February and March in the UK), well before the leaves appear. ![]() The leaves are opposite, 4–10 cm long and 2–4 cm broad, with an ovate to oblong shape and an entire margin. It is a medium to large deciduous shrub or small tree growing to 5–12 m tall, with dark brown branches and greenish twigs. Cornus mas, commonly known as cornel (also the Cornelian cherry, European cornel or Cornelian cherry dogwood), is a species of shrub or small tree in the dogwood family Cornaceae native to Western Europe, Southern Europe, and Southwestern Asia. ![]() With regards to other playback functions, ALSong is not lacking given its several options for playing music in style and it even supports add-ons for a timer and language function.

Music Player – MP3 Player is a stylish, powerful and fast music player for playing music offline (locally). They all have a beautiful interface and a variety of customization options for offline music, theme, playback, lyrics, and volume. This list combines paid applications and free ones because sometimes, the paid apps really are the best. Sure, you can swipe up QuickLyric or Musixmatch when a track is playing, but what will you do when you’re offline, for example? In today’s article, we turn our eyes to not just cool music players for Android, but the best ones that have support for Lyrics. Some developers manage to deliver audio players with a clean UI (obviously following Google’s material design guidelines) but not one that stands out from the rest. What seeks me about such a search, though, is the recommendations are far from reliable. In fact, a simple music player search will display a seemingly infinite list of music player options. We know that there are a ton of music players for Android. ![]() They’ve also added a new Extragalactic D3 Database that covers a billion lightyears of known space, in which there are roughly 200,000 galaxies.Īs you can imagine, crawling these databases can be a chore. Their proprietary DeepSky database has been expanded even more, to the tune of 36,000+ new objects that you can study. On the backend, Starry Night 8’s databases have also been improved. You can also print them out and keep them around, and graphs are also supported by the software. With Starry Night 8, telescopes that use ASCOM mounts are now fully supported by the software’s control features, as are telescopes that interconnect with SkyFi III.Īs for the ephemeris generator, these values help you to predict where objects will be and when, so they’re invaluable for astronomers. The foremost of these for telescope users is the updated interconnectivity and their more rigorous ephemeris generator. As you can expect with any new iteration of a software program, Starry Night 8 has implemented many improvements across the board. Let’s get the telescope-specific features out of the way first. It’s more than justified, however, as Starry Night 8 delivers unrivaled functionality into your hands and ultimately your telescope. That’s right, it’s premium, so it’ll set you back if you want to get it. Starry Night 8, often abbreviated to SN8, is a premium astronomy telescope software.

With a few simple calculations you will be able to save some money and be prepared for the winter months to come. ![]() Assuming a 40 lb bale, 2,668/40 = 67 bales per horse will cover 121 days. If you buy your hay by the bale, you will need to find out the approximate weight of each bale. Now, you need to account for hay waste.We will assume 5% storage waste because our bales are stored inside and 5% waste from feeding small square bales in a hayrack feeder.Ģ,420 lbs x 1.05 (storage waste) x 1.05 (ground waste) = 2,668 lbs hay per horse It’s important to pay close attention to body condition during these periods, and actually “feel” your horse as their winter hair coat or blanket can give you a false sense of body score.įor a quick calculation, we will assume your horse weighs 1,000 pounds and are feeding hay from December 1- March 31 (121 days):ġ horse at 1000 pounds x 2% BW = 20 lbs hay per dayĢ0 lbs x 121 days = 2,420 lbs hay per horse Some horses have higher energy requirements and require extra supplementation with grain during these months. For example, a mature 1,000 pound horse should consume 20 pounds of hay per day. Horses should consume 2% of their body weight in hay. Now, that you have taken hay waste into consideration you are ready to calculate how much hay you will need to buy this winter. To see the full results of “Feeding Horses with a round-bale feeder” visit, To see the full results of “Selecting a small square-bale feeder” visit, When using a round-bale feeder or no-feeder, they found the following amounts of hay waste hay intake: Feeder Type When feeding small square bales, the study found the following amounts of hay waste and hay intake: Feeder Type The studies focused on hay waste, estimated hay intake, herd bodyweight change, and payback with small square bale feeders and round-bale feeders. Researchers at University of Minnesota published two separate studies on the amount of hay wasted by your horse. If you can store hay inside, you can potentially reduce hay waste by about two-thirds. Hay stored outside tends to be the most common practice, but outdoor storage waste ranges from 5-35% depending on the amount of rain or snow the bottom and outermost layers are exposed. ![]() Surprisingly, storage waste can be up to 40% depending on forage type, storage method, environment, and storage length. When calculating how much hay you will need, you should also take into consideration the amount of hay that will be wasted from either your horses or storage. Significantly more heat is produced in bacterial fiber fermentation than in digestion and absorption of nutrients within the small intestine where grains are broken down. Fiber is utilized through bacterial fermentation within the cecum and large intestine. A greater amount of heat is produced through forage utilization because of the higher fiber content. As the temperatures start to drop below freezing, pasture grasses will begin to reduce their growth and horses will need to rely on other sources of energy to maintain their body temperature. Colder months are upon us and now is the time to be stocking up on your hay supply for your horses. “Luxury was just a really big step forward that we could take in order to really be able to bring all the brands that she loves into one place truly dedicated to serving only her.”īoujarwah said the company has also invested in collaborations. ![]() “It’s just a category that our that our customer really values,” Boujarwah said. “It does not appear to me that the Dia & Co customer is the same as 11 Honoré.”įor Dia, the investment in luxury stems from its shoppers’ desire to shop for plus-size clothes with ease. “It seems less likely that someone is spending $60 on a sweater… is the same customer spending $1,000 on a dress,” she said. She said that the target customer base of both retailers might not align. For example, a cocktail dress at Dia can cost more or less $158, while an Azeeza branded dress from 11 Honoré can cost $895. Wong said that the extreme price difference between 11 Honoré and Dia could present some issues. “There’s no question, from a business perspective, that when you have a wider range of products across categories and price points, you see higher response rates or conversion rates,” she said. She said by combining 11 Honoré into Dia.com, the company is able to gain marketing efficiencies because it doesn’t have to pay to send traffic to two sites. There are plenty of opportunities ahead for Dia by being a comprehensive destination for plus-size products, said Polly Wong, president of marketing firm Belardi Wong. About a month later, it expanded into swimwear, offering brands like Kitty and Vibe, Andie Swim and Nomads Swimwear. In February, it launched lingerie, featuring brands like Hanky Panky, Elomi, Elila and Rya Collection. Dia’s website was updated to include 11 Honoré in its lineup.Īpart from the acquisition, the company had also expanded into new categories. “That access and democratization of luxury for the plus size customer, it’s really what 11 Honoré set out to do back in 2017, and we just continue that mission now with just much bigger infrastructure and access to customer base.”ġ1 Honoré’s website no longer exists and its customers were informed about the integration through email and social media. And that’s really the gap that we’re filling here with luxury,” Patrick Herning, 11 Honoré’s founder, said. ![]() “A consumer should have access to all the brands she’s read about, loved, wanted, aspired towards. Dia did not share the financial details of the acquisition. Customers can now access products from brands like Girlfriend Collective and Madewell, as well as luxury brands like Vince and Tanya Taylor all in one website. ![]() The integration of 11 Honoré was one of the biggest steps Dia made to achieve its goal of being the “ultimate shopping destination” for plus-size shoppers. Dia has raised about $120 million in venture funding. So far, about 1 million women have now shopped at Dia.com with marketplace gross marketplace value up 225% year to date over 2021. For example, Gap scaled back its inclusive sizing just a year after its release, and Loft completely dropped its extended sizing.ĭia offers a variety of apparel categories - such as tops, dresses and jackets - in sizes ranging from 10-32. Sales revenue for women’s plus-size apparel rose by 18% last year compared to 2019, according to a recent report from the NPD Group.īut managing inventory for so many sizes has proven to be difficult for retailers to pull off. Major retailers such as Nordstrom and Anthropologie released extended sizing options at that time. Sometime around 20, the plus-size market saw an influx of brands attempting to steal market share in the category. “Really being able to provide her an experience that spans from a Girlfriend Collective tank, all the way up through true designer apparel was something that I don’t think we really dreamed was possible, but in bringing our two companies together, is the real-life experience.” “I think the reality of shopping for apparel is that you shop at multiple price points,” Dia & Co’s co-founder Nadia Boujarwah said. ![]() Dia expects only Shein, Walmart and Amazon to have a larger assortment than the company by the end of the year. Staying true to its original goal, the company has been focused on growing its style and category options over the last 18 months. Launched in 2015, Dia was developed to address the shortage of fashionable options in larger sizes. ![]() ![]() ![]() This cast list of who was in Tyler Perry's Madea's Family Reunion includes both lead and minor roles.
