Taiwan's military is "monitoring the situation closely", the ministry said on Twitter, adding that patrol planes, naval vessels and land-based missile systems have been dispatched in response. Taiwan's ADIZ is much larger than its airspace, overlaps with part of China's ADIZ and even includes some of the mainland.

They are also working on a Linux-based, secure smartphone called Librem 5. The security and privacy-focused company Purism has its own PureOS Linux distribution.

However, you may keep an eye on the postmarketOS community edition of the PinePhone if you want to purchase a smartphone that runs it. PostmarketOS is in very early phases of development, and it is most likely that you won’t be able to use it like a regular smartphone yet. PostmarketOS wants to achieve the same on the mobile platform, by tweaking Linux into a touch-optimized platform.ĭon’t get too excited. At the same time, you can run Linux on older computers easily.

Don't mess around when it comes to protecting your head and sharpening your game. To improve comfort and performance, a moisture wicking overliner and inflatable liner inside the helmet deliver an incredible fit and make your head feel all warm and cozy, even when you're diving over the line for a first down. With a focus on reducing and managing impact energy to the side of the head and face, Riddell has included the new inflatable S-Pad jaw pads, designed to diffuse this impact energy and protect these areas. Its durable, exclusive polycarbonate shell encases your head in strong, impact-absorbing, and lightweight material, protecting you and keeping your head on a swivel, so you can rise above the competition. And as for protection, there's nothing safer than an advanced Riddell football helmet. Its superior balance and aggressive Revo speed shell profile keep you light on your feet for fast, aerodynamic movements, so you can stay one step ahead of the line. The Riddell Revolution Speed Adult Football Helmet lives up to its name, giving you the lightweight quickness, comfort, and protection you need to edge out the competition!

This is not meant to reflect poorly on the ION 4D as a great, and highly rated helmet. ![]() Unfortunately, Schutt is not going to produce a Big Grill 2.0 for the ION, because, with the introduction of the new Schutt Vengeance, Schutt is tapering back production of the ION 4D. For many, this is frustrating, because they’d like to get the look of the Ray Lewis facemask on their ION 4D. Secondly, many customers wonder why there is no Big Grill 2.0 for the ION 4D helmet? Although there is an original Big Grill for the ION 4D, the latest version, the Big Grill 2.0, is not compatible with it. If Riddell develops a similar custom facemask, we will definitely stock it, and let everyone know immediately! The Big Grill 2.0, and original Big Grill facemasks are products of Schutt, and are not designed to fit any Riddell football helmet, including the Revo Speed and 360. For one, as of now, there is no big grill facemask for the Revo Speed, or any Riddell helmet for that matter. There are also some similar issues surrounding custom football facemasks that I’d like to address, to answer any further questions and dispel some rumors. To attach a DNA facemask to a Vengeance helmet, you must drill holes in the shell to accept the increased depth of the facemask design. An XL DNA is required if you wear an XL Vengeance.ĥ.

Unfortunately, no Super Pro facemask will fit on an XL Vengeance.Ģ. Only XL Super Pro facemasks will fit on a Medium or Large Vengeance football helmet. The Vengeance is designed to fit specially designed Vengeance facemasks, as well as Schutt DNA and Super Pro XL facemasks. The sizing and attachment specifics can get confusing though., I think it’s important to spell out all of the details and hopefully answer some of your questions:ġ.

We generally associate mood with the feeling that surrounds the piece of text or the feelings that surround the reader when examining a piece of text. The combination of elements can set the mood that is meant to be scary. This can come from eerie music in the background, or it can come from a creepy setting where the film takes place. Therefore, an author can use a tone that creates an atmosphere or feeling that the reader experiences.įor instance, if we watch a horror movie, the overall tone is one that is creepy, dark, and/or scary. Mood can be thought of as the result of atmosphere and tone combined to create a general feeling that surrounds the text and reader as they interact and work together. Usually atmosphere and tone work together to create an overall feeling within a piece of writing. We can think of atmosphere as the feeling that reader has when reading a text, while tone can be thought of as how the author feels toward their reader or subject. Some scholars may use the word tone in its place as well. ![]() Scholars sometimes use the word atmosphere in place of mood.

Other usual (commercial) suspects (without restricting themselves to mood classification or contiguity) are m, MusicBrainz, Spotify, Musicovery, Aupeo, Stereomood. Their model is quite sophisticated and could be of great interest to a composer. To refine these mood clusters, what you can do is take all the adjectives in each cluster, their synonyms and try to see if you can either group some of them or draw limits between them based on simple concepts.Ĭompanies like Pandora are known to have designed a multi-criteria classification of music pieces and song, constructed first by humans as the Music Genome Project. If people work with clusters, it is because they encountered difficulties in predicting reliably appartenance of music to finer divisions. Classifying (if possible automatically) music tracks becomes a way to feed such a recommendation system. Every internet music platform wants to propose and sell tracks to their users by different recommendation systems. Some people use research from psychologist about human moods such as Robert Thayer's (not restricted to music).Ĭlassifiying music is a very active research subject, especially these days for commercial reasons.

Replying to the meaning of the top answer for:īreviary of Renaud and Marguerite de Bar, British Library, Yates Thompson MS 8, f. Source : Medieval Academy of America, The Snail in Gothic Marginal Warfare, Lilian M. There is actually an entire scholarly article written about snails in manuscripts which says,".the principal connotation of the motif appears to be the derision, or the exemplification, of human cowardice." 6) by a chivalrous figure mounted on a dog and curled up in a snail’s shell, the symbol of cowardice." "The knightly exploits of Sir Joffroy are counterbalanced on fol. No close parallel to this mount has been identified, but the general style and subject matter suggest a 13th to early 14th century date." "In it are several depictions of snails, including one of a knight in a snail shell on folio 1v, suggested to be a symbol of cowardice. That could mean it is “a satirical reference to cowardly or non-chivalric behaviour of opponents in battle, or as a parody of the upper or knightly classes”.' Nenk said, 'snails were often depicted in the margins of medieval illuminated manuscripts, thought to symbolise cowardice. She even analyzed the manuscript images posted above. However, it is important to note that she she also concedes that the images could have had multiple meanings in different times and places.īeverley Nank, who is a curator at the British Museum, says that snails in manuscripts were drawn to symbolize cowardice. ![]() She states:įrom the assembled evidence the three questions regarding the origin of the marginal illustration can now be answered as follows: the predilection for the literary snail combat theme can be explained by the manifest current anti-Lombard sentiment the rapid diffusion of the motif reflects the international character of the Lombards' professional activities and finally, the concentration of the motif in late thirteenth- and early fourteenth- century manuscripts mirrors the intense reaction to a current development which gradually lost its appeal along with its novelty. It is clear that Lilian Randall's own preference is for the link with the Lombards. "Four-and-twenty tailors went out to kill a snail". She even notes a possible connection a modern version of the Mother Goose rhyme: ![]() These interpretations range from the idea of simply fighting the snail as a pest (considering the damage that snails could do to vineyards), to linking the snail with a nickname given to the Lombards (who were frequently disparaged in the early Middle Ages). Lilian Randall's paper suggests a range of possibilities for interpreting the designs. ![]() This motif emerged in Northern France in the late 13th century, and spread from there to English and Flemish marginalia. However, for the specific group you are interested in, the paper The Snail in Gothic Marginal Warfare by Lilian Randall may be helpful. In general, the meanings that should be attributed to the images that appear in marginalia is unclear, and you will find volumes of speculation on the subject.

This is an example of decorative marginalia, which is quite common on medieval manuscripts. 8/8/2023 0 Comments Anime shortcuts app iconHence, their download center and a community design request system. ![]() You could also sign up for free member account that will give you access to a great selection of new free icons.

8/8/2023 0 Comments Webdesign in photoshopBetween Linked Smart Objects and CC Libraries, there's plenty of options for being collaborative. These components can be shared within a Library, or as Linked Smart Objects that are pulled into a master PSD. For example, if you’re creating a pattern or component guide in Photoshop, one designer can be working on a component while another designer simultaneously works on a different one. With the addition of Creative Cloud Libraries and Linked Smart Objects, designers can share assets quite easily. If you can swing it, try using artboards, layer comps, or smart objects instead of managing tons of PSDs. This helps eliminate confusion about which PSD is the right PSD. If you’re making multiple comps for multiple pages, Photoshop now has artboards that can help you stick to a single document. If you dig a little deeper, you’ll find a glut of responsive resources attached to various guidelines, and a few tips for designing for multiple devices. Those familiar with the site will see a lot of familiar guidelines, such as quintessential tips like ‘Name Your Layers’ and ‘Name Files Accurately’, each an attempt at ridding the earth of practices like ‘Layer copy copy 5’ and ‘client-final-v3.psd’, respectively. The guide is broken down into the following sections: Though engineered for Photoshop, many of these principles apply to Sketch and similar, layer-based design tools. For those new to the concept, Photoshop Etiquette is a best practices guide that promotes efficiency through clarity in web design. Photoshop Etiquette was given a fresh coat of paint by Adjacent, a design studio in Syracuse, NY. At worst, it’s not being able to find the file you need in the first place. It’s having to fix images that have already been exported. Inefficiency is inheriting a file from a coworker and spending valuable time attempting to figure out where to start because it’s not clearly labeled. ![]() If we want to save time, we need to invest a bit upfront in staying organized and clear. The fact remains: anything worth doing is worth doing well. With Photoshop taking on different roles in our workflows, layers and exported files are easy targets for cutting corners. Often masked as efficiency, poor organization and communication are products of rushing to ship a project. With seemingly more to do in order to publish a website, being efficient is unquestionably high priority, if we want to be profitable. Responsive design typically comes with a lot of moving pieces, from images, concatenated CSS files, and more. For the sake of this article, we’ll define etiquette as transferring files in an organized, clear, and discernible way. With alternatives to the heavy Photoshopping we may be familiar with, it’s fair to question if we still need etiquette. Others have adopted apps like Keynote for prototyping.Ī flurry of new tools and techniques has seemingly put good ol' fashioned etiquette on the back burner. Many designers have moved on from Photoshop as their workhorse to Sketch, Affinity Designer, or similar. Applications like Webflow and Macaw have made breakpoint visualization digestible for the code-averse. There’s also been an explosion of tools attempting to make a responsive workflow more efficient. ![]() With a shift from page-based design to building a design system, it’s truly an exciting time. ![]() Style Tiles, Style Prototypes, Visual Inventories, Element Collages, style guides, and even designing in the browser have all been suitable approaches to multi-device design. ![]() The traditional comp-to-HTML workflow was only beginning to be critiqued, and since then, we’ve seen a myriad of alternatives. In 2011, everyone was just getting their feet wet with responsive web design. A lot can happen on the web in a few years, and these past five have illustrated that better than most. It’s been almost five years since Photoshop Etiquette launched, which officially makes it a relic on the web. ![]() Vaccination drives in Europe and elsewhere have taken a hit due to concerns surrounding the safety of the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine, after blood clots were reported after inoculation.Įarlier this week, Germany and the Netherlands said they would temporarily stop administering the AstraZeneca jabs for people below the age of 60. “The economic impact for France and Germany as opposed to the United Kingdom was less up until now, but there’s maybe a catch-up in that economic damage with these types of lockdowns and unfortunately the deaths that will come with the high rates of infection,” he said. “That all will have a negative economic impact, especially when it’s countries like Spain, France, Belgium, Germany, Austria – all interconnected with each other.” John Ryan, a visiting fellow at the London School of Economics and Political Science, told Al Jazeera that the pandemic will have a lasting “detrimental effect” on European economies, and that new restrictions will further hit growth and productivity as factories and supply chains will be disrupted. Only a few of the participants were physically distancing or wearing face masks – as is required by the authorities – but police allowed the rally to continue. Protesters held placards reading “there is no pandemic” and “vaccination kills”. Thousands of people marched through the German city of Stuttgart on Saturday to protest against continuing coronavirus restrictions. Germany has reported nearly 2.9 million COVID-19 infections and more than 76,000 deaths. German Chancellor Angela Merkel ditched a plan for a five-day shutdown over Easter to try to contain a third wave of the coronavirus pandemic after the hastily-conceived proposal triggered a backlash. He pointed out vaccine deliveries would increase sharply in the coming weeks and both citizens and government had to pull together and not “outdo each other in pessimism”. Germany, along with the EU as a whole, has lagged some countries in the speed of its vaccination effort amid the slower procurement of vaccines because of supply and distribution issues from the vaccine companies. He urged Germans to pull together and trust approved vaccines. ![]() Germany’s president said the country is enduring a “crisis of trust” as it weathers a second Easter under pandemic restrictions amid dissatisfaction over the government’s response.įrank-Walter Steinmeier on Saturday conceded “there were mistakes” regarding testing, digital solutions and vaccinations. Italy has administered 10.8 million vaccines, though only 3.3 million of the country’s 60 million people have received both doses. Italy has recorded 3.6 million cases and more than 110,000 deaths from COVID-19, more deaths than any other European country except the United Kingdom. ![]() However, churches are allowed to open and people are allowed to share an Easter meal at home with two other adults.Įven though the health ministry says the rate of infections is coming down, all regions were placed into the strictest “red zone” lockdown through Monday as a precaution. Meanwhile, Italy has imposed a strict three-day lockdown during the Easter weekend, with all non-essential travel banned. A limited number of worshippers, due to COVID restrictions, watch the Via Crucis (Way of the Cross) procession led by Pope Francis in St Peter’s Square, Vatican City, during Good Friday celebrations It has confirmed more than 96,000 deaths, the eighth highest number in the world. On Friday, France reported its biggest jump in the number of intensive care patients, leaving hospitals overwhelmed.įrance has registered 4.8 million COVID cases, the most in Europe and fourth globally.

The government closed all schools and imposed new rules taking effect nationwide on Sunday. Many people in Paris left the French capital ahead of restrictions as France enters its third nationwide lockdown. The European Union’s largely slow vaccination rollout and rising infections are forcing some governments to reinstate full lockdowns. France and Italy have reimposed lockdowns as European nations struggle to contain a rising number of COVID-19 infections, with millions across Europe set to mark Easter Sunday under the new restrictions. 8/7/2023 0 Comments 900 global zen bowling ball![]() The core makes the backend reactions crisp and delivers you with a slowed-down and controllable hook at the breakpoint. The energy-retaining ability impacts the ball-to-pin contact, resulting in the pins flying off the lane. You will love how this ball reads the body of the lane and how it keeps the energy intact for the hooking motion even on the broken-down lane. Similarly, the Zen Master gets into rolling without creating too big of a scene, meaning, it doesn’t make any reckless moves. If you remember the OG Zen’s reaction correctly, it wasn’t really the strongest bowling ball out there. The Mediate Symmetrical core features an RG of 2.49″ and a total differential of 0.051″. The Zen Master features the same low RG, high differential Meditate Symmetric core that you have previously encountered in the original Zen bowling ball. ![]() So what’s going on inside the bowling ball? As I have mentioned earlier, Zen Master is a symmetrical bowling ball. Now, let’s have an in-depth discussion on the ball’s weight block. If the 3000-Grit Polish finish feels a bit too much, you can always shine it down to 2000-Grit and the ball will react accordingly. If you want the ball to react flawlessly from the very beginning, you can customize the ball finish according to your preference. When I was trying out this bowling ball, I was very comfortable with its ball motion in the 2nd and 3rd games. But soon after the pattern breaks down, the ball will open up the lane for you to bowl better. When you throw this balling ball on the lane first, it will roll a bit crazy. Because of having the polished shiny appearance, the ball is more suitable in medium oil conditions. The factory finish goes with the S77 coverstock spectacularly. The reactive solid S77 coverstock of Zen Master is finished at a 3000-Grit Polish. While the Zen Master executes a cleaner move off the medium to heavy oil pattern, it also responds to the frictions pretty well. If you think you’re finding a bit of similarity with the 900 Global Aspect bowling ball, it’s because 900 Global has brought back that same coverstock for the Zen Master ball. Because of being solid reactive and the S77 Response coverstock makes the ball a great medium-strong piece with continuation and predictable motion. In terms of ball motion, the 900 Global Zen Master acts like Storm Phaze II as it’s very predictable. It goes without saying, Zen Master has already made it to many advanced bowlers’ arsenals. No wonder why this ball is getting so much popularity. If you liked the cover reaction of the OG Zen bowling ball, you will absolutely love the S77 Response Solid Reactive coverstock of the Zen Master bowling ball. So for the Zen master, there were some modifications and the same S77 Response cover is now a Solid Reactive cover. How good was that OG bowling ball? Well, yeah, that was the pearlized version. ![]() Features CoverstockĮveryone loved the 900 Global Zen bowling ball when they encountered the S77 Response coverstock. If you don’t want your ball to react too aggressively, yet want it to have a strong backend reaction, the Zen Master bowling ball is just for you. This medium-high flare, symmetrical bowling ball is not only responsive but also can deliver enough hooking motions. The 900 global Zen Master is the kind of bowling ball that no one talks about much. Conclusion Why is this bowling ball the best?.The Zen U gave him much more hold around the pocket and he didn’t need to throw it at the gutter from the start. The added length over traditional urethane shells allowed him to start closer to the middle of the lane and play to his strengths with open launch angles. He absolutely loved the motion he had from the Zen U on the dry pattern. The Zen U’s motion was a bit more versatile than traditional urethane for our testers, offering improved length and better downlane continuation.Ĭranker had the best overall motion from the Zen U across the test patterns, finding success on the medium, dry, and sport patterns. The new S35 Urethane+ Solid coverstock is also new to the 900 Global line, giving the Zen U a different motion compared to the more traditional urethane shape found in balls like the Boo-Yah and Honey Badger Urethane. It uses the new Meditate LD Symmetric core, which has the same core geometry from previous Zen bowling balls, but with a lower density to raise the RG to 2.56″ and reduce the differential to 0.027″. The Zen U provides some familiar imagery for 900 Global fans while also introducing some brand-new elements to their product line. |
