![]() ![]() Summers are becoming longer, and winters shorter - seasonal shifts that endanger countless animal and plant species by disrupting food supplies, mating seasons and other variables. Rising sea levels are threatening the beaches that sea turtles need for nesting. Carbon dioxide acts like a blanket in the atmosphere, trapping the sun’s heat and warming the planet.Ĭlimate change is already harming plant and animal life in ways that scientists are racing to understand. That number is now above 420 parts per million. Rather, scientists have found that the warming is best explained by rising concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, put there by humans burning vast amounts of fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas since the start of the Industrial Revolution.įrom having studied bubbles of ancient air trapped in ice, scientists know that before 1750, the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere was roughly 280 parts per million. That’s especially true in the second half of the 20th century, when solar output actually declined and volcanoes had a cooling effect. The first three (solar energy, ocean patterns and volcanic activity) haven’t varied enough in the last 150 years to account for today’s rapidly rising temperatures. In studying the cause of today’s climate changes, scientists have looked at all of these factors. Volcanoes can have a cooling effect when they shoot out stuff that blocks solar radiation. The big ones are the sun (whose energy can fluctuate over time), ocean circulation patterns (which can change how heat is distributed around the planet), volcanic activity (which pumps material into the sky that can have either warming or cooling effects) and the overall amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.Įach of these forces has played a role at different times in history.įor example, 56 million years ago, a giant burst of greenhouse gases from volcanoes or vast deposits of methane (or both) abruptly warmed the planet by at least 9 degrees Fahrenheit, triggering mass extinctions.Ībout 12,000 years ago, major changes in Atlantic Ocean circulation plunged the Northern Hemisphere into a frigid state.Īnd 300 years ago, a combination of reduced solar output and increased volcanic activity cooled parts of the planet enough that Londoners regularly ice-skated on the Thames River. Here’s how the science arrived at this place.įirst, it’s important to understand the main forces affecting climate. One scientific study put it this way: The odds of current global warming occurring without human-caused greenhouse gas emissions are less than 1 in 100,000. They’ve reached an overwhelming consensus: The burning of fossil fuels by humans is the primary cause of global warming today.Įven scientists employed by oil companies have come to this conclusion. Over many decades, thousands of scientists have studied the warming planet. Read more: The Science of Climate Change Explained: Facts, Evidence and Proof Botanists see similar signs of the effects of climate change on crops, forests and other vegetation. Ornithologists, for instance, have shown that warming is affecting many bird species - changing when they nest, breed and migrate, and even where they are able to live and thrive. Scientists doing field research around the world have documented other effects of climate change. Rainfall data shows that heavy downpours have increased in the United States and elsewhere, because warmer air holds more moisture.Īnd not all of the evidence comes from instruments. Satellites that measure gravitational changes show that trillions of tons of ice have melted from the world’s ice sheets and glaciers. Tide gauges and other instruments show that sea levels have risen by about half an inch per decade since 1900 (mostly because water expands as it warms). There is also plenty of evidence showing the consequences of this warming. The oceans have absorbed much of the heat trapped in the atmosphere. Temperatures in the top layer of the world’s oceans have increased as well. ![]() And the rate of warming has accelerated in recent decades. On average, surface temperatures are 1.2 degrees Celsius (2.2 degrees Fahrenheit) warmer than a century and a half ago. ![]() The most basic measurements of temperature show that the world has been steadily getting warmer. This evidence is largely in the form of data from weather stations, buoys, ships, satellites and other sources. There’s overwhelming evidence that the world has been warming since the late 19th century, when the burning of fossil fuels became widespread and resulted in large-scale emissions of heat-trapping carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. ![]() ![]() Unfortunately, it was a pain in the neck to use. It’s designed for the Instagram generation, and it does the job really well. ![]() It doesn’t give you quite the same control as something professional like Photoshop, but it gives you way more sharing-friendly options than alternative photo editors like Photo! Editor and PictBear. ![]() It’s a great app for people serious about editing images for fun. We really wanted to like PicsArt and, on some levels, we did. That really slowed the creative process down and made using the app a bit frustrating. It crashed several times when we were testing and, when it did work, it took a really, really long time to load images and apply effects. Unfortunately, using the app wasn’t quite as good in practice. From this point of view, PicsArt’s great. PicsArt has a fun website with lots of challenges, and vibrant, active, and huge social media following for you to get involved with. You can definitely make really great images to share on social media and the PicsArt network, even if it does take you a while to really master it. Is it any good?įrom a theoretical point of view, PicsArt is a really creative app that will give arty types hours of fun. In fact, there are so many features that you’re probably going to have to spend a pretty long time getting to know them all. Some features are premium-only but from within the app, it’s not clear which until you click them. There are standard editing features, like crop, resize, and add text, as well as adding stickers and filters, lens flare, runout, motion, clone, and more. PicsArt’s editing tools focus on the fun aspect more than the serious graphic design side, but you can still get pretty creative. Apart from that, there is a world of features that will let you make some awesome art. This makes it much easier to do pretty impressive things with the app. The most important part is that the editor supports layers, like Photoshop. There’s no end to the options you have for editing your images in PicsArt - that’s what makes the learning curve so steep. What kind of edits can you make with PicsArt? Once you’re happy with the final product, you can save it to your computer, share it with a variety of Microsoft-based apps, or share it with the PicsArt community. You’ll see layout options to the left and bottom, and you’ll be able to make changes to the appearance of the collage via the configuration options on the right. PicsArt Collage is a little more simple - but only just. Underneath this main image is the options available within the choice you’ve just made and, to the left, you can edit or select the layers you want to use. The options available to you are located to the left of the main image. Prepare to be overwhelmed - PicsArt Editor has a pretty steep learning curve. Once you’ve chosen an image, the editor or collage maker will launch. This can be from your computer, from their library of free images, an image you’ve already saved to your profile, or even an image from Facebook or Instagram, although these are probably easier to choose if you’re using PicsArt on mobile. Once you start to use the app, it will prompt you to pick an image. At the very top of the window are your settings and profile buttons - both of these are very basic. The main interface is taken up by an assortment of bright and eye-catching images, with the options of Editor and Collage at the top. PicsArt looks great, which is just as well for an photo apps. Once you’ve signed in, you’ll then have to set up an account, picking a username and password. ![]() Once it installs, you’ll have to sign in, which you can do by signing up with an email address or via a number of sign-in services.

Players then move their tokens around the board by rolling the dice and moving them clockwise around the board according to the number of spaces indicated by the dice outcome. MovementĪll players place their tokens on Start. On this extra turn, doubles are treated as an ordinary throw and do not bring about yet another turn. Players throwing doubles move their token as usual - but must then take one extra turn. ![]() Competitors must choose a green pawn monopolist must choose a blue pawn. The same dice outcome used from Role Division is also used to determine the rotation of players and to choose the color of playing tokens. It is less that you may remember from other games - so watch your money!) Order of Play (Caution: The money is just right to keep the game balanced. The Treasurer gives each player $1,500 two $500, three $100, two $50, seven $10, five $5 and five $1. The initial role assignment cannot be changed during the game. Players may trade off roles before the start of the game if they wish. Role division is done by rolling the dice and letting the player with the highest dice score choose between being either a monopolist or competitor and then letting the others make their choices by clockwise rotation. (For example, a division of 2 competitors and 3 monopolists is legitimate but division of 2 competitors and 4 monopolists is against the rules). The players are divided evenly to be either competitors or monopolists.Įven division means that there are the same number of competitors and monopolists or, if there is an uneven number of players, the difference between competitors and monopolists cannot be more than one. The Treasurer shuffles the Monopolist and Competitor cards and places them face down on the appropriate spaces on the board. The Treasurer must keep his/her own money strictly separate from the Treasury money. ![]() Select one player as Treasurer to manage and distribute the money, title cards, houses and apartments. Game B: To be the richest competitor after all monopolists have been bankrupted or to be the richest monopolist after all competitors have been eliminated ![]() Game A: To win by bankrupting all other players. Players have a choice of two ways of playing and winning the game: ![]() ![]() You can customize your template to be broken down into those categories, with different totals for each. As an employee, you have many costs in different categories. You can customize a spreadsheet to automatically include recurring expenses or add up expenses later for long-term analysis. A monthly expenses template is especially important for your business to understand costs. Businesses can create templates for monthly, recurring, and long-term expenses. You can even convert them into Microsoft Excel spreadsheets for easy filling. Having a template can also keep you from forgetting important details, like including dates.įortunately, templates are also completely customizable to your own needs. To avoid unnecessarily starting from scratch, download an expense report template like the one linked above. This will make them easier to scan later for a more professional look. Then, place receipts in an envelope or file in chronological order. ![]() As soon as you have a receipt, take a picture of it, just in case it ends up getting lost. Your system should focus on keeping receipts or other necessary documentation. It might help you to use one card for only business needs so that you can go back and make sure you’re tracking every transaction and don’t miss any qualified expenses. Whether you’re a business or an employee, create a system that helps you remember everything you need to submit. Keep these documents and receipts neat and organized. You’ll also want to ensure you know which document (usually proof of purchase) your employer wants attached to your expense report. If you’re traveling with a personal vehicle, learn how mileage reimbursement works. If you’re going on a business trip, figure out whether you’ll have a per diem, a company card, or simply request reimbursement of all of your expenses after the fact in an expense report. This means that if they haven’t already clarified, make sure you know which expenses they will cover and which they won’t. If you’re an employee, you’re accountable to the business you’re seeking reimbursement from. Expense reports will play a huge role in understanding the financial success of your business. You might be wondering, “How do I create an expense template?” You can start by downloading the template below and customizing it to your needs.įirst, establish expectations with the authorities you’re accountable to financially.īusinesses need to know about tax laws, deductions, audits, and general accounting best practices. A template can also guide employees and ensure they list charges correctly. Providing a template is more orderly and can make things much easier for those that process expense reports and track costs. Workers can then complete and submit a consistent report each time they’re reimbursed. You can follow the guidelines below to ensure your expense report is effective and professional.Īs a business, however, providing workers with an expense report template is more efficient. If you work for a small business, you may be expected to submit an expense report with little instruction on what it should look like. When seeking reimbursement, employees are usually responsible for producing an expense report. This documentation tends to be in the form of receipts for business purchases. This is usually the documentation required for tax and accounting purposes. ![]() Documentation to support the listed expenses.This helps streamline processing, and it’s simple when you have an expense report template in a spreadsheet.

These must be input accurately, down to the cent. While expense reports may seem tedious, the details they include are important for your company’s accounting: They allow a business to keep track of costs and create an accurate picture of profit versus revenue, and they also allow employees to get reimbursed for expenses they’ve incurred on behalf of their employer.

UVI Augmented Orchestra NKS library now available for both VST2/3 and Falcon/Workstation compatible.įully tagged with previews and includes a full controller map, tho UVI is limited to only 128 parameters for control there is a different template for the dual layer and single layer presets to offer extra control for single layer patches. RELEASED: UVI Augmented Orchestra NKS Library I would like to look at more character tagging, all presets are tagged with type tagging and I have done a scan for common character tags in presets to assign some tagging but some serious time is needed to step through 4000+ files and assign tagging by hand so that might be something I do down the track depending on how popular this one is. You do however need the latest versions of Falcon/Workstation for this library. I have specifically modified these files to allow them to load in both VST2 and VST3 versions of Falcon/Workstation (UVI supports migration so I made certain it would load the VST2 version and migrate to VST3) making sure users who still use VST2 can use these libraries, ![]() There is a custom template for both the dual layer and single layer presets and since UVI instruments are limited to only allowing a max of 128 mapped automation controls, the single layer presets for all the machines have more in-depth control with the dual layer presets having hopefully enough control for the 2 layers. This is a complete step up from the previous SA2 and SA3 releases, a whole new interface, new layering and new presets so this was not able to be converted at all from previous libraries, it is basically a whole new instrument.

The voltage of the IOREF pin can be ready by properly configuring the shield & choose the suitable power source or allowing voltage translators on the o/ps for functioning through the 5V (or) 3.3V. The IOREF pin on the Arduino due board simply provides the voltage reference through which the microcontroller works.There are 5 GND pins are available on the board.This regulator simply provides the power supply to the SAM3X microcontroller. 3.3V voltage supply is generated through the onboard regulator.5V pin outputs a regulated 5V using the voltage regulator on the Arduino board.Vin is the input voltage pin where the voltage is supplied through this pin.The power pins of Arduino Due are +3.3V, +5V, Vin & GND. So the power source is chosen automatically. The Arduino Due board can be power-driven through the USB connector or an external power supply like a battery or AC to DC adapter. ![]() ![]() This is not a guarantee of future income.
