![]() Replacing soda with high-sugar fruit juices or processed tea and coffee drinks, which often contain added sugar, isn’t much better for your health.īut swapping out soda for drinks that are low in sugar, such as unsweetened iced coffee or tea, can reduce your sugar intake while adding beneficial antioxidants to your diet, notes earlier research. It’s still important, though, to consider what’s in your soda substitutes. So what are some better choices? There are plenty of other refreshing beverages, with nutritional value, that you can drink instead of soda. “Oftentimes, when someone is regularly having a soda, they're not making the best food choices either.” In Kennedy’s opinion, other unhealthy lifestyle factors “often go along with frequent soda consumption, which compounds soda's effect on health,” she says. “As a result, people end up making up for the missed calories in other foods that they eat throughout the day.” Drinking Soda Goes Along With Other Unhealthy Behaviors ![]() “While you're not getting the same amount of calories or sugar from a diet soda that you would from a regular one, the belief is that with diet soda the body senses the sweet flavor and craves the calories that would normally go with that flavor,” notes Kennedy. The increase in waist circumference among diet soda drinkers was 3 times the amount that it was in nondrinkers.Įarlier research suggested that the artificial sweeteners in diet soda may change how the brain’s reward system processes sweetness. A past study found that diet soda intake is directly related to abdominal obesity in adults over age 65. “While diet soda does not contain added sugar or empty calories, as regular soda does, there is some evidence to suggest that it isn’t much better - if at all - than regular soda,” Kennedy says. A past study found that swapping out just one sugary drink a day for unsweetened coffee, tea, or water may reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes by as much as 25 percent.ĭiet soda fiends aren't off the hook either. “That’s about 1 ½ times more than the American Heart Association recommends a woman have in an entire day,” Kennedy notes.Īll of that added sugar intake has damaging effects. Department of Agriculture (USDA), one can of soda contains 36.8 grams (g) of sugar. “Soda has no nutrients of value, and therefore, there is no nutritional benefit to having it,” says Kelly Kennedy, RD, staff nutritionist for Everyday Health. Findings from a review of three small studies and published in the journal Appetite suggested that drinking soda can trigger sweet cravings by dulling your sensitivity to sweet tastes, sparking a vicious cycle of eating foods and drinks with added sugar. It’s also linked to obesity, notes a review published in August 2017 in QJM, the journal of the Association of Physicians of Great Britain and Ireland. According to a study published in September 2019 in JAMA Internal Medicine, drinking soda is associated with a higher risk of heart disease, stroke, colorectal cancer, and all causes of death. ![]() Overall, 18,600 children ages 2 to 19 and 27,652 adults 20 years old and older were surveyed over the total time period.ĭrinking soda can be a detriment to human health. Americans’ obsession with soda is waning, but not everyone is sipping with their health in mind.Īccording to a study published in November 2017 in Obesity, about 61 percent of children and 50 percent of adults reported drinking soda daily in a 2013–2014 survey, compared with nearly 80 percent and 62 percent, respectively, in a 2003–2004 survey.

![]() Also remember that SU is very heavy on the resource and that cleaver usage of layers can also make working a bit easier. Or an nVidia GeForce 8600 GT 512mb or above. My picks would be an nVidia Quadro FX series card 1700 or above, yes these are expensive. If you are doing CAD and SketchUp 8 hours a day at work a workstation graphics card is a must! If not that then a high end game card will be better than a low end card. If these are desktops I would really consider getting some newer cards or if they are old enough replacing them. It did worse than a AGP card from 2 years ago. I compared the 1st card to my 6600 at home and here is the result. Not to insult you but this is my opinion with using them in the past, so please don't take offense. What is the size of the files that are giving you problems? Are those laptops? I have absolutely no respect for Ati video cards. Or is it your computer cannot handle the size of the models in sketch up? There are several 3rd party render engines built to work with Sketch up, some of them are open source. Is there another application that isn't too expensive that I could be switching him over to? I am aware that the full version of AutoCAD will render in 3D, and along with some LISP routines I can make something look like it was drawn by hand, however the technician is not trained in AutoCAD and so he doesn't like this idea. We tried it on some other computers, including:Ī Dell DXP051 with 512MB ram, RADEON X300 SE 128MB, Intel® Pentium® D CPU 2.80GHzĪ Dell MM061 with 1024MB ram, RADEON X1300 256.0 MB, Intel® CPU T2050 1.60GHz I have a feeling that the performance bottleneck is in the SketchUp software, but I guess I could be wrong. I am looking for a way around this, obviously. These larger drawings may have more than ten 3-story buildings in them. The problem is that Google SketchUp doesn't perform very well with some larger drawings. It's perfect for him because it's cheap and it's easy. ![]() A technician at my company has been using SketchUp Pro to render drawings. ![]() Moreover, Brazil’s relative strength compared with neighboring states is belied by the reality that Brazil faces significant challenges in addressing cyber threats, particularly cyber crime. However, the administration of former president Jair Bolsonaro did not prioritize regional leadership. 4 Brazil has used its expertise collaboratively by providing, for example, cyber defense assistance to neighboring states during major regional events. Tracking with its status as a leading regional actor, Brazil’s cyber defense capabilities are generally considered among the best in Latin America, even though they are not as sophisticated as the capabilities of many Western states or as well organized as Chile’s, its neighbor. 3 The Armed Forces’ Role in Cyber Defense They rather reflect the broader facts that defense investment increased during Lula’s first two terms and that, like in other countries over the last fifteen years, the Brazilian military began to intensify cyber defense structural reforms and capability development. Follow him on Twitter, developments should not be interpreted as a deliberate political prioritization by the Workers’ Party of the military aspects of cyber strategy at the expense of the civilian aspects. He was a 2022–2023 British Academy Innovation Fellow at the UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office. Joe Devanny is a lecturer in the Department of War Studies at King’s College London. They were driven by the threat of cyber attacks against the 2014 FIFA World Cup and the 2016 Olympic Games, both hosted by Brazil.ĭr. These developments occurred during two Workers’ Party ( Partido dos Trabalhadores, or PT) presidencies: those of Lula and his successor, Dilma Rousseff. The early 2010s saw the institutional development of cyber defense, leading to its first national cyber defense doctrine in 2014 and a joint operational command in 2016. Its 2008 National Defence Strategy identified cyber as one of three strategic priorities, alongside nuclear and space. Like many countries, Brazil started to develop aspects of a national cyber defense strategy in the 2000s. The Armed Forces, Politics, and Brazil’s Cyber Strategy This will be a domestic and foreign policy priority-as such, it is likely to be a productive issue for bilateral engagement. Of greater political significance to the administration is countering online disinformation and extremism. 2 This blueprint needs further refinement, but the real test of the administration’s commitment will be how it approaches the process of securing congressional and wider approval and, if it achieves this, whether it devotes sufficient resources and political backing to the blueprint. 1 The administration does not appear to prioritize wider cyber strategy politically, but it released an ambitious consultation paper in May to stimulate discussion about reforming domestic cybersecurity governance. ![]() In April, the Lula administration passed the mark of one hundred days in office, and it is now over halfway through its first year, so it is still in a relatively early phase of governing. Overall, progress in improving Brazil’s cyber strategy is likely to be slow. Its approach to cyber diplomacy continues to mirror Brazil’s established approach, and the administration is unlikely to try to challenge the significant role of the country’s military in cyber defense. ![]() The administration seems to have settled into a pattern of relative continuity with its predecessors. So far, no single institution or senior figure in the administration has played a decisive role in driving forward a comprehensive cyber strategy. The other members of their group are Jamaica and France, the team that eliminated the Brazilians four years ago in the round of 16.Since coming to office in January 2023, Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (more commonly known as Lula) and his administration have not treated cyber strategy as a top political priority. Swedish coach Sundhage, who led the United States to two Olympic gold medals, has had nearly four years to transform the team.īrazil will play a last friendly game at home on Sunday against Chile in Brasilia before heading to Australia to open the tournament with a game against Panama on July 24 in Adelaide, Australia.

The annual park pass (Assateague Island only) was $40.Ī national park pass for all parks is currently $80, but military families are able to get a free annual pass. At the time that we went, the entrance fee was $20 per vehicle for a one-week pass. Like Shenandoah, there is an entrance fee into the park. Shenandoah National Park is still my favorite place to camp, but I think Assateague Island National Seashore is my close second. It was awesome to have all of that available at our campsite. Little J and his cousin just played in the sand all day, digging and looking for sea shells, etc. In spite of the horses trashing our site and my SIL’s car battery dying (yeah, that happened), I loved it. I bought some screw-in utility stakes from Walmart, and they held the tent down even when it was storming. They should be some kind of stakes that are appropriate for sand. So speaking of the wind, I recommend getting extra long stakes or utility stakes for your tent. I have a gazebo with mosquito netting, but because of the wind, I didn’t try to put it up. I think that’s a must for this campground. We also had sunblock for the sun since there’s very little shade on the island, especially at the oceanside campground. It had rained the night before, so I think that brought the bugs out. I did get a few bites at our campsite on the last day. I think it was because we went camping in October, so if you’re camping in the summer, I would recommend you bring repellant just in case especially if you’re going to do any walking near the bayside where there’s a lot of brush and swampy conditions. ![]() I read online reviews that the mosquitos were very bad on the island, so we packed a lot of bug spray, but we didn’t really see a lot of bugs. There are built in night lights, so you can still see inside them at night. There’s room for a stroller or wheelchair to fit inside. They’re up on their own platforms, and they’re very large. They are a step up from your regular porta potties. Next time we go there, I’ll take photos and share them in a post. Also, the toilets are basically luxury porta potties. There are no hot showers on the island, just cold-water showers, which I think would be fine in the summer, maybe even refreshing. The horses are the alphas on Assateague Island! We just had to wait until they were finished investigating whatever they wanted and left. So that meant that when the horses walked into our campsite, we backed away from them that’s all we could do. We were also warned that although they’re not afraid of humans, they are wild. We didn’t leave food out unattended we were there, but the thing is, you’re not allowed to come within 10? –I think it was 10– feet of the horses, or you risk getting a fine. If you see the wild horses sauntering over to your campsite, hide all of your food items in your car, or they will trash your campsite looking for the food. The ocean was just over a sand dune from our tent! There is also a bayside campground at the national park, but I just loved being on the beach.Īs soon as we drove off the bridge and onto the island, we saw wild horses! In fact, we did see wild horses every day that they were there, and they even roamed our campsite! That actually turned out to be a problem, so here’s a tip for you. That means we actually camped in the sand right next to the beach. I, Little J, my sister in law, and one of my nephews ended up camping there together. There is a state park campground there too, but from the reviews I’ve read online, it’s not as nice as the national park. Well, about two weeks before the Columbus Day weekend, I just happened to browse the website and found an open campsite for that weekend! It had to have been a cancellation, so I immediately booked the site because I figured it may be my only chance to visit. I occasionally check the reservation website for open campsites, but the national park campground there is usually booked 6 months ahead of time, so it’s been difficult to get in. Did you read the Misty book when you were a kid? I did, and I also read some of the sequels. The island is known for its wild horses, and the book Misty of Chincoteague by Marguerite Henry is set there. It’s actually about 20 minutes south of Ocean City, Maryland. Since we moved to the DMV (DC, Maryland, Virginia) area several years ago, I’ve wanted to go camping at Assateague Island National Seashore, which is off the Maryland and Virginia coasts. ![]() The evolution of Street Wear into a premium package, Street Art contains the Street artistic style with a premium feel, featuring custom alerts, twitch banner, twitch pannels, sub medals all with color and language variations.

This cheat chord can also add a lot of interest to your strumming if you move from the Dsus and D. You need to listen to make sure it doesn’t clash with the melody, but when it works, it makes for a simple transition between the C (add9) and G, because you never have to move your pinky and ring finger. The Dsus chord is a good replacement for the D chord. It has a fuller sound and it leads beautifully to the G chord with the altered fingering. ![]() The C(add9) works well to replace the C chord in the key of G. The key to this fingering is how easily it leads to the next two chords because of the pivot fingers on the high G and B string, which never have to move. This is very similar to the traditional G fingerings, but adds a fretted D on the B string in order to make it easier to transition between chords. ![]() In addition, try these two chord alterations: G Altered Fingerings Here is a chord progression that uses these two chords with C. It has a fuller sound, and once again, you only need to use two fingers. When you see an Am chord, try to play an Am7. Make sure your finger (that’s fretting the low note) is laying down just enough to play the low G and dampen the A string. You can play it with only two fingers and it sounds cleaner. When you see a G, you often use this fingering instead of the traditional fingering. The chords are listed under the keys where they work best. Once you’re comfortable with playing cheat chords, advance to original, yet easy and basic guitar chords. Cheat chords are simply altered chords that are easiest to play, and can be played in place of the original chords. In reality, you’re not actually cheating when you play these chords. Cheat chords are easier to play, and in many cases, sound more interesting than the original chords. ![]() To make your life easier, one of our expert guitar teachers Jerry W. While learning the guitar and trying to wrap your head around all the different guitar chords, you may feel slightly overwhelmed. 12 Easy Guitar Cheat Chords for Beginners Her appearance also featured an uncredited voice cameo by Dina Meyer surprisingly, Rachel Skarsten was absent despite being a regular in one of the shows involved in the crossover. It was announced in September 2019 that Ashley Scott would reprise her role as Huntress in the Arrowverse's adaptation of Crisis on Infinite Earths, alongside many other actors from former DC television series. However, unlike most instances, the ax fell early enough to where the show actually resolved its Myth Arc. It was a modest success at first, riding the popularity of Smallville, but it was somewhat ahead of its time, which coupled with the still dubious feelings about any live-action Bat media led to rapidly dropping ratings and its cancellation on February 19, 2003, for a total of 13 episodes. The By-the-Book Cop Jesse Reese ( Shemar Moore) slowly starts to see the bigger picture of the Gotham underworld and finds himself attracted to Helena. Alfred Pennyworth ( Ian Abercrombie) is maintaining Wayne Manor and offers the Girl Posse help and advice from time to time, with some hints that Batman/Bruce Wayne is still keeping tabs on them. The Big Bad was Harley Quinn ( Mia Sara), whose connection to The Joker was a rumor and she still operates as a mob leader while posing as a respectable psychiatrist. Helena and Dinah themselves are meta-human, Helena having enhanced senses and cat-like agility and Dinah having growing telepathic/telekinetic powers. Most of the series revolved around the emergence of Meta-Humans, people who have extraordinary abilities. The series focused on the crime-fighting escapades of Helena Kyle ( Ashley Scott), daughter of Batman and Catwoman, as per her pre-Crisis backstory Dinah Redmond ( Rachel Skarsten), a teenage runaway and estranged daughter of Black Canary and Barbara, who now fights crime via Mission Control as Oracle. The series established that Catwoman was killed in the Joker's sadistic crusade and something went down where he was captured and soon after Batman left Gotham. The series' backstory also features elements visually inspired by Batman Returns, namely the Batsuit and Catwoman's outfit. ![]() ![]() Premiering October 9, 2002, and with co-production handled by Smallville co-producers Tolin/Robbins Productions, Birds of Prey is set in the city of New Gotham, twenty years after events heavily influenced by The Killing Joke, where the Joker shot and paralyzed Barbara. However, since the topic of a live-action Batman was still an anathema due to the failure of Batman & Robin, the choice was made to instead loosely adapt the popular Birds of Prey comic series, focusing on Barbara Gordon ( Dina Meyer) as she deals with life following a personal tragedy. Since a young Man of Steel was proving popular, it made sense to explore his darker counterpart. Seeing its success, producer Laeta Kalogridis decided to explore the life of another DC character. By 2002, The WB had bounced back from the loss of its flagship series, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, by launching Smallville, chronicling the life of Clark Kent as he grows into becoming Superman. ![]() First, we note that these patterns are identical, following d sin θ = mλ d sin θ = mλ size 12. so ive been completing gigs, and ive completed all of them except the heisenberg princible, i cant begin the gig, regina doesnt call when i get to the place and the door isnt open, ive tried skipping time, restarting the game but nothing has worked, im just hoping someone has a fix for this. ![]() A television adaptation of Michael Frayn's celebrated and award-winning stage play about the meeting between physicists Niels Bohr and Werner Heisenberg in 1941 Copenhagen. Consider the double-slit patterns obtained for electrons and photons in Figure 29.25. With Stephen Rea, Daniel Craig, Francesca Annis. Let us explore what happens if we try to follow a particle. It is somewhat disquieting to think that you cannot predict exactly where an individual particle will go, or even follow it to its destination. Formulated by the German physicist and Nobel laureate Werner Heisenberg in 1927, the uncertainty principle states that we cannot know both the position and speed of a particle, such as a photon or electron, with perfect accuracy the more we nail down the particle's position, the less we know about its speed and vice versa. Those who developed quantum mechanics devised equations that predicted the probability distribution in various circumstances. There is a certain probability of finding the particle at a given location, and the overall pattern is called a probability distribution. After compiling enough data, you get a distribution related to the particle’s wavelength and diffraction pattern. However, each particle goes to a definite place (as illustrated in Figure 29.24). The idea quickly emerged that, because of its wave character, a particle’s trajectory and destination cannot be precisely predicted for each particle individually. What does the time-energy uncertainty principle really mean The Heisenberg uncertainty principle is one of the most famous results in quantum mechanics. Both patterns are probability distributions in the sense that they are built up by individual particles traversing the apparatus, the paths of which are not individually predictable.Īfter de Broglie proposed the wave nature of matter, many physicists, including Schrödinger and Heisenberg, explored the consequences. Figure 29.25 Double-slit interference for electrons (a) and photons (b) is identical for equal wavelengths and equal slit separations.

You can make less think that characters other than "m" can end ANSI color escape sequences by setting the environment variable LESSANSIENDCHARS to the list of characters which can end a color escape sequence. Where the "." is zero or more color specification characters For the purpose of keeping track of screen appearance, ANSI color escape sequences are assumed to not move the cursor. ANSI "color" escape sequences are sequences of the form: Unlike -r, the screen appearance is maintained correctly in most cases. Like -r, but only ANSI "color" escape sequences are output in "raw" form. Thus, various display problems may result, such as long lines being split in the wrong place. Warning: when the -r option is used, less cannot keep track of the actual appearance of the screen (since this depends on how the screen responds to each type of control character).
