But you do it with a gentle hand, you don’t preach and say “tobacco kills! How can these doctors do that?! ” No, you just go them one step further and say, “In addition to eight out of 10 doctors smoking this brand of cigarette, in their time off, they each drink a gallon of bourbon, which also has health benefits. So it’s easy to shoot down that kind of bull. The main thing is to keep your eyes and ears open and when you hear something that’s clearly baloney, such as “eight out of 10 doctors smoke Chesterfield cigarettes” – these are ads that actually ran! One of the tobacco companies had the nerve to claim that doctors prefer their cigarettes. And this kind of stuff, when there’s someone on the public scene who’s really going beyond his duties as a politician or a religious leader or a sportsman, he’s fair game. Visit The Fabulous Fifties blog for more – the amazing Ger Apeldoorn has scanned tons of Tall Tales from old newspapers, a monumental (and much appreciated) endeavour. Al Jaffee came up with the idea of this strip’s format (one vertical panel for dailies, and a series of vertical panels for Sundays) when he was in financial straits – its unorthodox configuration ensured that newspaper editors would be able to squeeze it in *somehow*.

The very fact of the forest being a dark, wild and unpredictable place links it to the passions of the lovers in the play, it’s a place they escape to. The forest in A Midsummer Night’s Dream is the province of the fairies, humans that dare to stray there are bound to be subject to their interference and mischief. Is this my favourite Shakespeare play? A toss up between this and the dark brooding Macbeth. The sense of place-a brand new estate in the middle of a forest-is every bit as vivid as Proust’s Combray and the descriptions of the forest and the natural world seen through Knausgard’s childhood eyes are sublime. In Book Three, Boyhood Island, the narrative jumps back in time to Knausgard’s childhood and the seven years spent during the 1970s on the small island of Tromora off Norway’s southern coast. Six autobiographical titles make up one of Norway’s biggest publishing phenomenon and Knausgard’s My Struggle series has been compared to Marcel Proust’s In Search of Lost Time in its depth of remembrance and detail. It fascinated me from the first moment I stepped under the canopy. I knew straight away I’d found the setting for my story-it’s such a magical, haunting place yet is also a living, breathing contemporary community. Then quite by chance on a day out we took a turn off the road, over a little stone bridge in Monmouth, and found ourselves in the Forest of Dean. I had the idea for this story for some while and tried writing it in various settings and something was always slightly awry. It’s the story of Ruby, who on hearing on her thirteenth birthday that she is adopted, races out to the garden and sings for joy.īecause of the brutality of her early life she vows to find her true family, although what this leads to is the uncovering of family secrets, both in her own and others, and ultimately the discovery of a dead body. My own book, The Doll Funeral, is set in the Forest of Dean-an ancient woodland close to the border of Wales. Author Kate Hamer shares the books that inspired her latest thriller, The Doll Funeral. Forests are such deep, dark, mystical places – in every story with a forest setting it seems that the forest becomes a character in its own right. No matter how much you try to find spycams with the naked eye, the chances of actually finding them are rare. In restrooms, spycams are most likely going to be hidden in low areas, angled upward. Remember that spycams are used for filming, so angles matter. If you notice a stray wire attached to or near an appliance, don’t ignore it. And so if you are concerned about spycams, focus your energy on electronics. Most commonly they are attached to fans, smoke detectors, hairdryers, and clocks to conceal their wiring. Because hidden cameras often require a power source to record continuously, it makes logical sense to conceal one with other electrical equipment. While spotting the cameras themselves is nearly impossible, thankfully battery technology is lagging. All you have to do is go down to the seedy technology district near Yongsan station to see thousands of spycams in the making. These cameras are extremely easy to get your hands on in Korea. More often than not, spycams are placed in objects and hidden in ways you would never expect.Ĭameras have progressed and have become lighter, smaller, and even more powerful as technology has advanced. However, criminals know that is what concerned citizens expect. Every time we go out, she loses her mind with every small square-shaped object or hole in the wall she finds. One of my friends is extremely concerned about spycams. While difficult it is difficult to spot spycams, it is not impossible. In Korea, cameras are often disguised as everyday objects or so small that they are barely noticeable. To this day, the police still regularly sweep public restrooms and hotels. In fact, the problem was so severe that the Seoul government established an 8,000-person team in September 2018 to scour the city’s public restrooms on a daily basis. In 2018, the issue of spycams took centerstage with the bust of multiple spycam rings. With the filming and distribution of pornography being illegal in South Korea, spycam footage actually became the dominant adult film genre in the country. The bulk of the victims are usually female, and the captured images or videos are regularly sold on various pornographic websites. Spycams refer to when an individual places a camera in a private location, such as a restroom, locker room, or hotel room with the intention of capturing intimate and nonconsensual footage of another person. Now the “space” we set aside for the game must be increased in multiples of the original size up to a maximum of 1280 … (ref: meh321) So we’re now recommending you increase the amount to 1024. But since then, we've started adding more and more 2k+ and 4k+ textures to the game, and also some very good, but very “heavy” mods that add a lot of new items, or new critters … eventually the "random crashes” started creeping back into the well modded game. When the Skyrim Script extender was introduced, that patch was moved into SKSE and increased to 768Mb which was even better. (There are reasons you'll still see people mention sacrificing their first born to Sheson) The original Sheson memory patch increased that initial space to 512Mb which significantly improved the stability of a modded game. Now along came Sheson, one of the true giants in modding who has had more than a few shrines dedicated to him and rightly so. And what's worse, the more you do mod, the more it tends to happen, even if you do everything right. Now throw in a bunch of mods with scripts, New Items, New locations, and high resolution textures … well let’s just say when you start running out of room, you start crashing to desktop (CTD) for what seems like no reason at all. That was always more than enough space for an unmodded game. The Vanilla game engine allocates (protects) 256 Mb of space to the game for everything that isn’t rendered on the screen. By adding the SKSE memory tweak, and the scripts (and the source files) as a mod Updating, removing or reinstalling them is a simple matter of checking or unchecking the mod, and if you use the Creation Kit, all the papyrus source files are already correctly installed as well. Not a situation you want to be in if you have to clean up your game installation while trying to fix a problem later on. The SKSE scripts are required by all users of SKSE, but by default the installer dumps them into the skyrim/data/scripts folder as loose files. Remember if your Mod Manager supports profiles you will need to add the SKSE mod to all active profiles. Set it as active, and move it near the top of your load order. Open your Mod Manager, and install the SKSE archive you just made into your game. Now, select both folders, right click, and "Add to archive" using your preferred archive manager. When you open the SKSE folder on the desktop you should see both the SKSE, and the Scripts folders inside. Inside right click and copy the scripts folder, then paste it into the first SKSE folder on the desktop. Jump back to the skse_1_07_03 folder, and open the “data” folder (Not the one in your game folder) You just created the SKSE initialization file from scratch … It should look like this.Īlmost done, we need to add one more thing. Now double click on SKSE.ini, copy the lines below, and paste them inside.(you’re going to get a warning about changing extensions, just click yes) When you go to name it delete the entire name including the. Yes, I want you to make an SKSE folder inside the SKSE folder, that wasn’t a mistake. Open the folder, and inside it, make another new folder called SKSE.On your desktop, right click and select new, folder, and name it SKSE.If you also use the Creation Kit, it installs the required script source files correctly at the same time. Now because you're using a mod manager we can do something clever here, and it gives you the opportunity to turn off the SKSE memory tweak and disable/remove the scripts for testing purposes with a tick of the mouse. (If we didn’t do that first, you might have trouble doing the edits) That’s it all done, click apply and close the window. Jump into your Windows Control Panel for a second, and open up the “File Explorer Options” If you don't see it, pull down the “View by:” menu in the top right corner and change it to small or large icons.Ĭlick on the View tab, then click on “Show hidden Files, Folders, and drives”Īlso, remove the check from “Hide Extensions for known file types” First we need to make sure you can see what you’re supposed too. That's it for the required files, but SKSE has a few more steps to complete the installation for the memory tweak. Typically, you would right click on it and select “Extract to ” Then copy the following files into your Skyrim Game folder (Not the data folder) Typically, X:/Steam/Steamapps/Common/Skyrim/ (where X: is your game drive) Navigate to your downloads folder and extract the skse_1_07_03 archive to a folder using your default archive manager. If your roll is wider than 4 feet, you might also want to secure each end.Īnother carpet rolling and folding option: While most authorities suggest folding and rolling area rugs with the pile on the inside, some feel the best way to ship a rug is with the pile side on the outside. Then tie it in the center with a piece of twine or a strip of fabric. When you have it tightly rolled, fold the paper or cloth over the ends of the carpet. The goal of rolling is to make your rug as compact as possible without damaging the pile. Keep the paper or cloth inside and move in the direction of the pile. If you haven’t folded your carpet, start rolling from one of the shorter sides, which will have a fringe rather than a bound edge. If that’s the case with your large area rug, you’ll need to roll it and find a suitable carrier to ship it. Some rugs can’t be folded without damaging them. Stop if you have a hard time folding the rug or if it makes a cracking noise. Common wisdom says that if the narrowest dimension of your rug is more than 6 feet, you should fold it first.įold the rug in even thirds and fold it again if needed. Sometimes, you might want to fold your rug before you roll it, to avoid oversized shipping charges. Don’t use plastic sheeting your carpet needs to breathe during shipping. The paper or fabric should stick out a few inches on each side. Place a sheet of kraft paper or cotton cloth over the pile side of your rug. Feel the surface of the rug to determine the direction of the pile, and when you’re ready to roll the rug, roll it in the direction of the fibers. Find and follow the direction of the fibersįor rugs such as Persian carpets, most of the fibers (also called the grain or pile) will run in one direction. The goal is to make it as compact as possible without damaging the carpet. How you pack a rug for shipping will depend on its size and materials.

But how you generate, send, and collect on that invoice is the tricky part. Your QuickBooks Online Invoicing Questions Answered In terms of filtering of data, it happens quite easily without any provisioning or extra manipulation using packet filtering. To form a network with other nodes and add nodes to expand the connection, it is required to increase the nodes in a hierarchical format where the hub acts as a linking device in half-duplex mode for transmission and further receiving the data. There are certain multiple LAN cables that are connected to the hub with the help of some connector like RJ45, which acts as a mediator and has a connection with a range of wire approximately 100 m lengths.In contrast, the switch acts as an active hub which provides a lot of boost for generation and amplification of signal for establishing any successful connection.The Ethernet hub is considered quite a passive hub when it comes to boosting the signal and establishes a connection with other devices using the generation of the signal significantly.The ethernet hubs are still able to handle the port forwarding, but it cannot support the switching protocol while it is completely opposite in the case of the switch where the switch uses a switching loop which is useful in deploying and checking spanning tree protocol that helps in making the surrounding loop-free.The most important key difference between the ethernet hubs is it operates on physical layer whereas the switch operates on datalink layer of OSI.In ethernet hub, the number of ports for connection is very less compared to switch, which can support many numbers of ports as compared to ethernet hub thus useful.An ethernet hub makes use of a single collision in the domain, whereas the switch supports for different ports and different domains for collision because of which ethernet hub experiences more different domain collision.On the other hand, there is no concept of filtering when it comes to ether hub for forwarding but forwards one frame to each port uniquely. The switch supports filtering only for frames so that they are present only in particularly dedicated devices, especially for forwarded frames with the transfer of packets and bits.Spanning tree implementation is not at all supported by the Ethernet hub, whereas it is supported by the multiple spanning tree in case of a switch.The transmission mode used in the ethernet hub is half-duplex, whereas the switch, on the other hand, transmits data in bits in full-duplex.Whereas switch with a dedicated bandwidth is shared with other sets of ports. Ethernet hub has the capability to share bandwidth between the ports. Profile creation dates are now shown correctly. SpyderUtility+: Profile Management was showing incorrect profile creation dates, in certain situations, when a profile was selected in the list.SpyderUtility ensures that the calibration curves in the video card of a Windows system are loaded on system startup and it will actively keep them loaded while you’re using your system. If you’d disabled SpyderUtility from launching automatically on startup or login to prevent these alerts, we recommend leaving it enabled after installing the 5.2 version. In the past, this could happen at various times: waking from sleep, hibernation, switching graphics cards on laptops with dual cards. An Internet connection for software download is also required. The monitor resolution needs to be 1280×768 or greater, a 16-bit video card (24-bit recommended) is required, 1GB of available RAM and 500MB of available hard disk. SpyderUtility (background operation): The “GammaTracker.cpp” error alert will no longer appear. SpyderX Pro is fully supported on Windows 7 32/64 and above as well as Mac OS X 10.10 and above.Also, the Datacolor logo now prints correctly (previously it was printing as a solid black rectangle). (Windows default printing margins are 1” and these are too large to prevent this overlap). This fixes a problem in which, when printing these reports from Windows, the report header was overlapping into the body contents. 25” then you’ll be warned and encouraged to reduce them to. if you leave the margins set to values larger than. Display Analysis: When printing a report, the Page Setup dialog is now shown, so that you can select a paper size/shape and also the printing margins.Main application: A few miscellaneous spelling/translation problems were fixed. Whether you want to perform quick calibration or require a precisely created color profile, SpyderX software delivers the right solution.(In the 5.1+ version this wasn’t disallowed, but CMYK isn’t supported and the resulting image displayed would have the wrong colors). Main application Elite+: CMYK-format TIFF/JPEG image files are now specifically excluded from being added to the file list in Soft Proof.(Previously, the presence of double-byte characters in a profile name would cause problems, such as non-working profiles or crashes). If the entire name was double-byte characters, you’ll be prompted to start over and enter a new profile name. If at least one character remains in the profile name, it will be saved with the modified name. Main application: When naming and saving a profile immediately after calibration: if there are double-byte characters in the profile name, these are now stripped/removed from the name and you’ll be warned this has happened.DCI-P3 gamut plot added to the reference gamut display choices.Assorted internal improvements and bug fixes. It started raining golf balls, she protected me So I could watch the golf girl, could see she fancied meĪnd later on the golf course after drinking tea So, of course I had to have one, in fact I ordered three She asked me did I want one, asked me with a grinįor thruppence you can buy one full right to the brim I chanced upon a golf girl selling cups of tea Of course Trisha became Pat and the rest is history!” All of that was happening in his life at the time. The original version of Golf Girl was a very personal song about him and Trisha, his wife to be. When a song reaches its final stage, he changes lyrics to become less personal. “He writes about things that are very close to him, like his friends and family and so on. “Richard is a very endearing writer,” says guitarist Pye Hastings in the liner notes of the 2011 album reissue. The song is a charmingly naïve story about falling in love with the lady who sells tea at the golf course, and finding a secluded spot safe from flying golf balls where they can share a first kiss. Written by bass player Richard Sinclair, this is a personal song that took his domestic life as its inspiration – more specifically, the story of how he met his wife. Golf Girl is the track that opens the album. The original line-up would eventually reunite on 1982’s Back To Front. It was the last album to feature the original line-up of Pye Hastings (guitars, vocals), Richard Sinclair (bass, vocals), Richard Coughlan (drums), and Dave Sinclair (keyboards) due to the latter’s departure later in the year. The album was produced by David Hitchcock (also known for producing other prog acts like Genesis, Camel, Curved Air, and Renaissance). They had started to build a live following in the very early 1970s, during which they created their third and most critically acclaimed album In the Land of Grey And Pink (1971). This utterly belies their historical importance to the British rock landscape, as they are considered a key part of the Canterbury scene of progressive rock acts that grew into prominence in the 1970s. They never achieved widespread commercial success, only racking up a total of two weeks on the official UK album chart in their career. Caravan is an English band from the Canterbury area formed in 1968. When you are in the park, practice the seven principles of Leave No Trace.

If you choose to hike all of the way Paintbrush Divide, this is a 16.8 mile hike with 4,550 feet of elevation gain. You can turn around whenever you are ready, but the farther you go, the better the view. This pretty canyon typically has fewer hikers than Cascade Canyon, so if you are looking for solitude, this is a nice option. Paintbrush Canyon: You can hike Paintbrush Canyon out-and-back. If you like the idea of doing this hike but don’t have the desire or the energy for a 20-mile loop, here are 3 shorter versions of the Paintbrush Canyon – Cascade Canyon Loop. Late summer to early fall is the best time to do this hike, when most of the trail is free of snow. In the early part of summer (sometimes up through July) there can be lots of snow at the higher elevations, so special gear is recommended (hiking poles, crampons, etc.). In the winter and spring, the trails are snow covered and dangerous. When to Go: During the summer and fall months.
