Floating island subnautica map9/25/2023 ![]() Jha is taking advantage of an opportune moment when California politics are turning away from the slow-growth mantra that has dominated in established cities and suburbs over the last half century. His homework leads him to snap up single-family homes where he decides the law will let him build much bigger, no matter what anyone else thinks. Akhilesh Jha has spent the last six years paging through state laws and city zoning codes. developer aims to tear down homes to build apartments where the city doesn’t want them. SAG-AFTRA officials said 86% of their members do not earn enough to qualify for the health plan. The current SAG-AFTRA strike is focused on streaming residuals and artificial intelligence and has illuminated how the uncertainty of the industry leads to actors losing their health insurance or not qualifying at all in any given year. Thousands of SAG-AFTRA members joined Writers Guild of America members earlier this month in striking together for the first time since 1960. County’s sickest residents by closing a gap in care. Providers insist that what are known as child and adult outreach triage teams were saving some of L.A. County gave up on a mental health program - and is handing back millions in grants. His more than 50 speeches in California and hundreds more across the country are part of a multi-pronged effort by the election denial movement to make a significant impact on future elections by changing state laws, training candidates and - in Frank’s case - organizing volunteers to challenge local results and voter rolls. And though his allegations have been disproved and dismissed by election experts and fact checkers, he hasn’t been deterred from spending the last 2½ years on the road, spreading his message to any group that will host him. Douglas Frank is convinced that American elections need saving and believes that to do so, people must take back the ballot box one county at a time. It consists of Chinese Potato Plants and Marblemelons.The ‘Johnny Appleseed of election fraud’ wants to upend voting in America. An abandoned farm constructed by Bart Torgal can also be found here next to a naturally made land bridge. To reach the central Seabase, take the right fork near the beach and follow it around the edge of the Island (It is also possible to simply climb down from one of the mountains to the central Seabase). The path will fork again before a bridge crossing, with each fork leading to one of the two mountaintops. To reach the two mountaintop Seabases, follow the left fork on the dirt path near the beach. There are also three abandoned seabases built by the survivors of the Degasi, one located at the center and one on each of the mountains of the Floating Island. The Arch inside links to the Mountain Island Arch. This one is much easier to access but harder to find. The second is found in a small lump in the ground east of the central lagoon. It can be found on a small ledge just above the large lake in the middle. The Alien Arch Cache can be found in a large cave near the centre of the Island. Bulbo Trees are also edible and can be found growing wild on the island. The Island is a good source of edible plants, namely the Lantern Tree, Marblemelon, and Chinese Potato, which are exclusive to the Island and can be found in various abandoned growbeds. It can be accessed from the main beach or via the underwater entrance at its center. The Floating Island is fully explorable and boasts a wide variety of colorful, terrestrial flora that covers most of the Island's surface. Two smaller observatories doubling as small farms, and a larger farm on the other side of the Island. There, they constructed a main base, which has been partially covered by a mudslide. ![]() The Floating Island was also the residence of the Degasi Survivors for a small while. An Abandoned PDA is positioned right beneath the signal, laying on the sand. Keen left behind a signal for the rendezvous point at Lifepod 19. ![]() The Floating Island was the rendezvous point for survivors of the Aurora, However, only two made it: Second Officer Keen, and CTO Yu. The climate is tropical, with a great amount of vegetation and a surface temperature that peaks just below 41☌ and never lower than 20☌. It is a large landmass completely supported by Ancient Floaters located underneath the Island. The Floating Island is a unique island biome in Subnautica.

Create videos utilizing Pixel FIlm Studios plugins, effects, transitions, themes and Text Presets for Final Cut Pro X. Graphics card with: 2 Gb of RAM for HD, 4 Gb for 2K and 6Gb for 4K projects What are the minimum system requirements for Windows? Final Cut Pro requires macOS Monterey 12.2.1 or later & Final Cut Pro 10.6.2 or later to run natively. ![]() Natively compatible on Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve. Works on Windows in Premiere and Resolve. The plugin quickly and accurately fixes incorrect white balance by giving you an automatic white selection tool along with tone and comprehensive level controls for further tweaking.Īll of these plugins can enhance your video editing workflow in FCPX and bring more value to your projects, so if you still don’t have them up and running on your Mac, we highly recommend them regardless of your skillset and level of expertise in video editing.Yes since launching at the beginning of 2022. Last but not least, comes the White Balance 2 by FCPEffects. Overall, it’s another must-have plugin that can be extremely useful, especially when working with Log footage in FCPX. It’s straightforward and intuitive to use as it adds contrast to your images but as Harv points out it does it in a very subtle and natural way. The same goes for S-Curve plugin by CineLook. It’s an excellent piece of software exclusively available for Final Cut Pro X and Motion 5 users. MLUT by MotionVFX not only allows you to add multiple custom LUTs to your projects while still giving you the option to customize their look further but it’s also completely free. It is a highly effective way to clean up video from any source including video cameras, digitized film, TV tuners and others, plus it’s considered as one of the best denoisers in the industry.

Like a lot of the plugins on the list, there’s also a great demo version to view on your video clips. ![]() Since there’s really no option to view false color natively inside Final Cut Pro, Pixel’s False Color plugin is a must for those who are serious about coloring. The plugin allows you to sample the skin tones directly from your clips and gives you loads of options to tweak its settings thus enabling you to achieve more natural results consistently. An area where Final Cut Pro can struggle is when it comes to coloring. Skin Smoother 2 by FCPEffects is another essential add-on to Final Cut Pro X that quickly smooths out unwanted skin details. This bundle can be beneficial when you want to insert floating lower thirds tracked to people, replace screens or signs, all with one step while eliminating the necessity to use another compositing package. Powered by Mocha engine, the Track X and Slice X plugins by CoreMelt allow you to track multiple objects in your frame including text or graphics to follow background motion directly in FCP X. Harv of Harv Video/Audio Stuff shares a bunch of handy solutions that could help you to improve the overall functionality of FCPX by adding a few essential features some of which could not only be incredibly useful for your video editing workflow but also won’t cost you a dime. Nevertheless, you can still bring some of this functionality to Final Cut X by installing a few neat plugins along the way. Unfortunately, the platform lacks many of the advanced features and assets that other professional NLEs like Adobe Premiere Pro CC and DaVinci Resolve provide by default. Those of you predominantly working with Final Cut Pro X know well how powerful and efficient the software could be even when running on an entry-level Mac.

Hermes trickster9/25/2023 ![]() Unlike the Norse god of mischief, however, she does not interfere. One interesting, though very dark, tale of Eris has her, like Loki, pitting craftsmen against each other to cause problems. The Greek poet Hesiod wrote that she had 13 children including “Forgetfulness,” “Starvation,” “Manslaughters,” and “Disputes.” Perhaps the most unexpected of her “children” were “Oaths,” as Hesiod claimed that men taking oaths without thinking caused more problems than anything else ever could. Little is known of her life, her adventures, or her family. However, besides being present to cause havoc among gods and men, she never appears to play a larger role in stories. Eris: The Greek Goddess of Discord and StrifeĮris, the Greek goddess of strife, the Roman Discordia, brought chaos and problems to all she visited.Įris appears to be an ever-present goddess, though sometimes sent directly by others. ![]() The dwarves would never learn that the fly was, in fact, Loki himself, using his supernatural powers to ensure the bet would be won. Having won the bet, Loki left with the hammer and gave it to the thunder god as a present. However, when the fly bit the eye of one of the dwarves, he accidentally made the handle of the hammer slightly shorter than it should have been. Their measurements were careful, their hands firm, and if it wasn’t for a pesky fly biting them all the time, they may have produced something perfect. These dwarves, determined to kill Loki, got to work. He bet them his own head that they could not produce something better than the world’s greatest craftsman, the “Sons of Ivaldi.” Hair made of literal gold.īeing so impressed with the dwarves’ work, he decided to trick them into making more great wonders for him. Thor told Loki that, if he wanted to live, he had to go to the dwarven craftsman and make her new hair. ![]() Her golden yellow locks were famous around the world and Thor did not find the prank funny. Loki had thought it a prank to cut off the golden hair of the goddess Sif, wife of Thor. READ MORE: Loki: Norse God of Mischief and Excellent Shapeshifter How Was Mjolnir Made? The story of how the hammer came to be is found in the “Skáldskaparmál,” the second part of the Prose Edda. The symbol of the hammer was used as a good luck symbol and has been found in jewelry, coins, art, and architecture. In Norse mythology, Mjolnir was not just a weapon but a divine instrument, having great spiritual power. One of the best-known tales of Loki also happens to be the tale of how Thor’s famous hammer, Mjolnir, was made. However, by comparing them, scholars were able to recreate many of the great stories from Norse mythology, many of which had held oral tradition for millennia. Only seven copies of the text exist from before 1600, each of them incomplete. Most of the tales of Loki we know today come from The Prose Edda, a thirteenth-century textbook. Today, few academics make this link but discuss if Loki is also the Norse god Lóðurr, who created the first humans. This theory became especially popular with Aryan theorists who were tasked by The Third Reich with proving that all religions stemmed from Norse mythology. In modern times, many people have suggested that Loki’s “trickery” shows similarities to Christianity’s Lucifer. “Loki” is a term for “web spinners,” spiders, and some stories even talk about the god as a spider.Įven the word “spiderweb” in Swedish could be translated literally as “Loki’s net.” Perhaps this is why Loki is sometimes also referred to as the patron god of fishermen, and not at all surprising that he is sometimes called “the tangler.” However, he did claim to have had an affair with the god of thunder’s wife, Sif, and went on many adventures with the more famous deity.Įven the name tells us a little about Loki the trickster god. While today people know Loki from the character in Marvel movies played by British actor Tom Hiddleston, the original tales of the god of mischief was not Thor’s brother, or related to Odin. The Norse god Loki is described in Norse mythology as “very capricious in behavior” and “having tricks for every purpose.” Who is the Most Powerful Trickster God?.Anansi: The African Spider God of Mischief.Wisakedjak and the Creation of the Moon.Wisakedjak: The Clever Crane of Navajo Mythology.The Fable of Eris and Heracles (Fable 534).Eris: The Greek Goddess of Discord and Strife.

Good books for calculus of variations9/25/2023 ![]() I continued with the ideas from this book to then study Analytic Mechanics which after studying the Calculus of Variations was a much easier task. A whole historical timeline of ideas was presented to me, ' why didn't anyone tell me this when I was studying Electromagnetics at University ?' I also started to see how the Cov lead via the extension to 2 independent variables to the idea of capping surfaces and how this in turn applied to vector fields lead eventually to Maxwell's equations. In fact I actually started DOING mathematics, by filling in the gaps, rewriting the proofs in my own 'style' and adding simulation into matlab and DESMOS. In the process I learned a WHOLE lot more mathematics than is in this book. I worked through line per line equation to equation and filled in all the missing mathematics in between. When I started on the Fox book I dedicated myself to it. I originally tried the Fomin book but found the initial introduction via vector space as an unnecessarily cumbersome (maybe if you are introducing Fourier Analysis then this may be a good idea but I thought it over the top for an introduction to CoV) addition. ![]() After which the rest of calculus of variations became accessible to me. Having struggled with Calculus of Variations I went back to Euler's original work which explained the derivation of the Euler Lagrange equation in a purely simple geometric manner. Students are assumed to have a knowledge of partial differentiation and differential equations. Ideal as a text, this volume offers an exceptionally clear presentation of the mathematics involved, with many illustrative examples, while numerous references cite additional source readings for those interested in pursuing a topic further. The last three chapters examine variable end points and strong variations, including an account of Weierstrass's theory of strong variations, based upon the work of Hilbert. Applied mathematics are discussed in Chapters V, VI, and VII, including studies of least action, a proof of Hamilton's principle and its use in dealing with dynamical problems in the special theory of relativity, and such methods of approximation as the Rayleigh-Ritz method, illustrated by applications to the theory of elasticity. Chapters III and IV delve into pure mathematics, exploring generalizations and isoperimetrical problems. The first two chapters deal with the first and second variation of an integral in the simplest case, illustrated by applications of the principle of least action to dynamical problems. In this highly regarded text, aimed at advanced undergraduate and graduate students in mathematics, the author develops the calculus of variations both for its own intrinsic interest and because of its wide and powerful applications to modern mathematical physics. An understanding of variational methods, the source of such fundamental theorems as the principle of least action and its various generalizations, is essential to the study of mathematical physics and applied mathematics.
