As a sidenote here, note that Apple will require all eBook submissions to have an ISBN (International Standard Book Number), a number that you will need to purchase from some 3rd party organization. Certainly not a bad place to be, but many authors want an option. Sounds wonderful, but, unfortunately, books authored in iBooks Author cal ONLY be viewed in Apple’s iBook app on iPhone and iPad and this limits the availability of your book to the Apple ecosystem. It offers extensive layout tools, DRM, the ability to embed all sorts of multi-media AND offers control over how the layouts re-flow when you change the orientation of the reading device. Last year, Apple released an application called iBooks Author which initially looked like it would be a silver bullet. The next, a more powerful, format is relatively new. And rotating a mobile device while viewing a PDF does not reflow or adjust the layout, it just gets scaled to fit the screen. Besides, as an author, selecting PDF as the format to publish in, can put you in a position where illegal copies of your book end up being distributed on the Internet and there is little you will be able to do about it. As a consequence, you cannot sell your book through these bookstores. However, PDF does not offer embedded Digital Rights Management (DRM) and is therefore not a format that bookstores such as Apple, Amazon or Barnes & Noble can use to release a book. This format has been around for a while and can be read on pretty much all platforms, tablets, smart phones, Windows and Macs. It is not impossible, as the format will take images and even video, but formatting and layout will typically not satisfy a discerning author.Ī format that does allow far more control over the layout is of course PDF. And any thoughts of wanting to author a photobook or a book with multi-media will quickly become a frustrating exercise in the ePub world. Simple things like multi column layouts or running text around irregular shapes is simply not possible. The ePub format is not such a great choice for books that are heavy on images or fancy treatment of content or want to make a statement on design. Pretty much all books you see in Google Books, Barnes&Noble, are ePub as are many in the Apple bookstore. The ePub format a great multi-platform choice and is great for books that are heavy on textual content. In other words, the ePub format offers the reader the flexibility to adjust the view to suit their own preferences. The benefit of ePub is that it allows the content to re-flow based on the orientation of the device you are using and the reader has some control over the size of the text. Also popular is the MOBI format which is what the Kindle uses (although the Amazon bookstore accepts ePub submissions and automatically takes care of conversion). Very popular is the ePub format which is supported on iOS and Android devices and can be viewed on a wide number of eBook reading software on Windows and Mac devices. Probably the biggest decision to make is what format in which to publish your book. However, there are still challenges to be navigated and choices to be made regarding the process of self-publishing. ![]() ![]() Online bookstores such as Amazon, Apple and Barnes & Noble have opened up channels for small publishers, even individuals, to submit content and there are some low cost or even free tools available to author such content. ![]() Today, the changes to the book industry is making it easier for private individuals to take steps towards publishing a book, the first time ever in history.

Make a bleach solution (which keeps forever in a bottle, if not always kept in bright sunlight). You are rewarded with a dense, ugly mess that depresses you greatly. So you expose at that speed in your camera, then process as usual in a robust developer, normal stop bath, and normal fixer. Let's say that the film involved is not too old and is rated at ISO 200. Holding it up to a light bulb, however, will reveal a real image. NOTA BENE: with that orange mask you might have to opt for a bit more contrast in the neg, as that mask can serve to slightly filter your VC paper into a lower grade.Īgain, when you process C-41 film as B&W, (yes, even E-6 can be done this basic way) you acquire an extremely dense negative that most will simply discard (because it is so ugly). You are looking for a good negative that will print well, so, as with B&W, you want shadow detail and good differentiation between highlights and shadows. ![]() ![]() After the development, stop, and fix, then blix, you will be in a position to determine whether you should modify your Dektol dilution and/or development timing, and film exposure, (but not before after you are finished blixing). I find Dektol superb for doing this you will have to process films a few times before you nail down your procedure, I suggest you expose a roll, then cut it into segments of a couple of inches (in the dark, or course) so that you will have multiple tries for one roll total (Why waste so much film?) You can start with Dektol diulted about 1 + 19 and work from there, choosing a convenient (ambient?) temp and time (how is 8 minutes?). There are more steps involved, in that, after fixation you need to 'blix' the film in order to 'bring back' that nice orange mask back into transparency. Older film, as well, will require more development time and/or more developer strength.īasically, you need to develop the film more robustly because of the diminution of silver, but you can still acquire a good negative. Depending upon how old the film is, you rate it accordingly, giving more exposure as needed. With these films, in a C-41 process, the silver image is bleached away and the dye cloud negative image remains, just as with C-41 color films.Here is how to do this. These are essentially color films, but instead of three layers with filtration and different dye couplers, these films have a single layer of sensitive emultion, no filter layer(s), and dye couplers balance to produce a black image (by producing all three dyes in visually equal amounts). The only other way to get a B&W negative with a color process is to use a so-called "chromogenic" B&W film, like Ilford XP2 Super or the Kodak equivalent. With no dye couplers in your B&W film, you won't get a dye cloud image, but if you don't bleach the silver, you'll still get a silver negative images, just like what you'd get in D-76 or Rodinal. Any color developer will produce a silver image in any conventional film - but standard color processes bleach away the silver to leave only the color dye clouds that form the final (either positive or negative) color image. There's one "color" process that might have produced an image like the one shown (though it appears the negative was "distressed" in some manner as well): that's developing with any of the three developers, C-41, E-6 First Developer, or E-6 Color Developer, then stopping and fixing with non-bleaching fixer (like conventional B&W fixer or C-41 fixer, not blix), without going through the bleaching step (often combined with fixing in home color developing kits). Stabilize with "stabilizer" (whatever that is and does).Fix to remove all the remaining silver leaving the dye image that was coupled to the silver in the second (colour) development.At this point, you are developing all the remaining silver that has not been bleached. You have already removed the negative image. Re-develop the re-exposed image in colour developer (one with colour coupler(s) added) to completion.Expose the film to light or chemical fog to render the remaining undeveloped silver image (which is positive).Bleach the existing negative metallic silver image which will make it water soluble.Stop development at the appropriate time with stop bath.The first developer works to provide the negative silver image.In effect, you are going to produce a "stain" image similar to "pyrogallol"/"Pyrocatechin" developed images The secret is in how colour coupling works on a silver image. Developing a Black & White film as colour film will leave a dye image rather than a metallic silver one. ![]() The PENDRAGON series has been translated into over 20 different languages.

The default increment between backups in FileMaker is five minutes, but that can be modified using the command line. Instead of the server software copying all the data every time it runs a backup, this type of backup concentrates on the data that has changed since the last backup. Progressive backups are FileMaker's version of the waiter who maneuvers from table to table, topping off everyone's glass of water. You can review some important considerations to help you identify essential backup requirements for your custom apps. Now you're free to set up a custom backup strategy. If you want to turn off the default schedule, head over to your preferred command line tool and perform this command: "fmsadmin disable schedule 1." Enter your FileMaker Server admin credentials when prompted. Perhaps midnight isn't an optimal time to run backups or maybe some of us want to keep more than one week of backups. Nonetheless, many developers and advanced users want control over what data to back up and when to schedule them. One of the nice things about the default Backup Schedule is that the FileMaker Admin Console gives us the ability to preserve selected backups for posterity, as long as we have enough disk space, of course. The newest backup replaces the oldest backup. This default backup stores up to seven data copies at a time. So, a backup automatically runs every night and makes timestamp copies of all our hosted apps and places them in a default folder named Backups, which is located in the Data folder. Right out of the box, Claris equips their product with a default Backup Schedule tool. Default Backupsīefore we dive into the particulars of how to bend FileMaker Server to our will, let's review some of the product's built-in functionality. We'll outline the use of these tools and how they connect to the decisions we make based on the principles we discussed in the previous post. The on-premise Claris FileMaker Server product not only allows us to share our custom solutions with our coworkers and the world, but it also gives us a set of tools to protect our valuable data and workflows. Again, you’ll need to authenticate.We've discussed some backup principles for our FileMaker applications, specifically, the when, what and where to protect the data within up our custom apps. Then take your unzipped FileMaker folder that you downloaded and drop it in the same location. Your Mac is not going to like you doing this so you’ll need to authenticate with the administrator password. Delete the FileMaker folder located at: Macintosh HD > Users > Shared Once unzipped, you will have a folder called FileMaker. So, if FileMaker Pro 19 is the only version installed, download the zip file and unzip it if it doesn’t do that automatically. You’re welcome to contact us and we can help. ![]() There is a zip file available for download here.īEFORE WE PROCEED, the usual and important disclaimer that you should have a backup of your computer and any tinkering under the hood is entirely at your own risk.Īnd MORE IMPORTANTLY, if you have installations of other versions of FileMaker, your folders may have additional items in them, so proceed with even more caution and the steps below should not be followed as you’ll likely delete files required for other versions. So, to fix it, we need to get the right folders and files in that location. Again this was a brand new computer with just FileMaker Server installed and configured, and then the drag and drop installation of FileMaker Pro. How that folder structure came to be, we have no idea. ![]() The above screenshot is not what should be in that FileMaker folder. ![]() Keep in mind there's no need to rush them. I just don't see gold as a goal in it's own right, it's a tool to use to get things which are useful to me, keeping it unspent just means I may as well not have it. ![]() ![]() (Admittedly one of those times it was the fees for listing stuff for sale on the TP which used the last of my coin, so I knew all I had to do was wait to get it back.) I always leave the expensive part (Gift of Fortune, Mystic Tribute or whatever) until last for exactly that reason.Īlso on many occasions I've had no gold at all, at least 3 times I've gotten down to literally 0g 0s 0c in my wallet and it's never put me off playing, it just means I have to be careful about what I'm spending until I build it up again. I think this might be personal preference rather than an absolute rule.Įvery time I've started making a legendary I've had less than 100g and I don't think I had enough materials to use/sell to cover everything I need but it never bothered me because I know it's going to be a long process no matter what and that means I'll have time to get more gold and more materials. And if it's one thing that will put you off playing, it's having no gold at all. Unless you have a metric ton of materials in the bank so you can basicly build it for free, I would say dont even consider a legendary until you have at least a thousand gold in the bank or you'll run out in an instant. Or putting in a bunch of buy orders in advance. Just putting in sell orders a bit under the top instead of selling instantly works wonders. It's much more important to move faster since gold can be made anywhere but you can't get your time back.Īnd no I don't bother flipping stuff on the TP. Which is why I think micromanaging stuff like what to do with green drops with rune crafting or vendoring individual items to be a horrific waste of time. Personally, I think getting good sales on the TP and getting gold is much faster and efficient than trying to penny pinch whatever out of drops. Alternative, something new comes out and everyone wants to craft, making whatever materials sell for more. For example, the early part of a new festival usually has some high in-demand drops (such as trick or treat bags) that skyrocket at the start so just sell them all early. You can use Gw2 efficiency to easily find out you can sell for profit.įinally, if you truly don't want to do anything difficult, you can make gold with alt-parking: You can also use laurels to get the t3s-t6s often required for legendaries. For obvious reasons you want to keep the t6s. Fractals also give ascended gear, and if you don't have ascended gear, you should work on that instead of legendaries.Īlso sell material storage? Sell everything that does not explicitly relate to the legendary you are making like lodestones, cooking materials, or basic crafting materials. Only problem is the agony resist required but not too many of the collections require that high scale anyways. Fractals also give you gold to get other legendaries. Also if IIRC, it only requires completion of 1 t4 fractal (Mai Trinn). It also does not require gift of battle or mystic coins (though mystic clovers). You get multiple skins before the legendary and also doing fractal gets you gold. Batman: Arkham City is loosely based on Unreal Engine 3, while the DirectX 11 functionality was apparently developed in-house.Easiest legendary would be ad infinitum. ![]() With the addition of these features Batman is far more a GPU demanding game than its predecessor was, particularly with tessellation cranked up to high.Īrkham City is another game that has favored memory bandwidth and ROP throughput over shader performance on Kepler parts, which means the GTX 660 does relatively well here. The performance drop coming from the GTX 660 Ti at 1920 is only 4fps, which puts the GTX 660 ahead of the 7870 by the same amount and well ahead of the 7850. On our 5 th game the GTX 660 finally gets a win, even if it is just a modest 5%. Interestingly enough this is also a good showcase for the GTX 660 versus the GTX 460, with the GTX 660 stopping just shy of doubling the GTX 460’s performance. More than anything else the extra 1GB of RAM is making the biggest difference here, which going forward is going to be the GTX 460’s Achilles’ Heel. chizow - Monday, Septemlink Yes you chose to interject in this discussion and made a reference to the rebate in particular, continuing on as if the GTX 280 price was unwarranted.POST A COMMENT 147 Comments View All Comments With newer games the GTX 460 and GTX 560 are likely to run out of memory before they run out of shading and rendering resources. I think corrected you by showing the GTX 280's price *WAS* warranted relative to last-gen unlike the 7970, but even still, Nvidia cut prices and did right by their customer by issuing rebates.

Much ahead of his colleague, John Kettley, Fish had a record dedicated to him in 1985 by the punk group Rachel and Nicki called "I wish, I wish, he was like Michael Fish". It was in fact a white lie he made up himself, as a colleague in the studio (presumably a BBC employee, although Fish himself technically worked for the Met Office as a civil servant) told him his mother in Wales was going to Florida and mentioned she had heard there was a storm coming, so he thought it would be a good opening line to start the forecast with, and said "Earlier on today, apparently, a woman rang the BBC.". įish said in a BBC interview that there was actually no woman caller who phoned in to the BBC regarding the storm, although over the years many have claimed to be her. The term "Michael Fish moment" is applied to public forecasts, on any topic, which turn out to be embarrassingly wrong. In reaction to the controversy, the term "the Michael Fish effect" has been coined, whereby British weathermen are now inclined to predict "a worst-case scenario in order to avoid being caught out". In 2012, a clip of the bulletin was shown as part of a video montage in the London 2012 Summer Olympics opening ceremony. 15 years later he commented that if he were given a penny for every mention of that forecast, he would be a millionaire. Fish did go on to warn of high winds for the UK, although the storm that actually occurred was far stronger than he had predicted, albeit technically not a hurricane. But he did not mention Florida in his forecast, which was made amid widespread worries about a coming storm: that morning, the Surrey Mirror had warned of "furious gales", so both his caller and his viewers likely believed he was referring to Britain. In later years, Fish claimed that he had been referring to that year's Atlantic Hurricane Floyd affecting the Florida Keys at the time, in a link to a news story in the BBC One O'Clock News that preceded the weather bulletin. The storm was the worst to hit South East England for three centuries, causing record damage and killing 19 people. Well, if you're watching, don't worry, there isn't!". He has since retired from presenting his weekly forecast on as announced on the 24 December 2021.Ī few hours before the Great Storm of 1987 broke, on 15 October 1987, he said during a forecast: "Earlier on today, apparently, a woman rang the BBC and said she heard there was a hurricane on the way. He is a patron of numerous organisations and charities. He resumed forecasting on BBC South East Today, providing holiday cover for the regular forecaster and has also taken to acting. More than eight years after retiring from the BBC national forecasts team, he made a return to regular forecasting, presenting a weekly weather forecast for. He was awarded honorary degrees by City University London in 1996 and Exeter University in the summer of 2005. Michael Fish also co-authored a book with Paul Hudson and Ian McCaskill called Storm Force: Britain's Wildest Weather, published in October 2007. That year he was also awarded the TRIC Award for TV Weather Presenter of the Year and The Sunday Times gave him the honour of "National Treasure". Michael can actually interpret the skies – he can do the weather forecast the hard way: the old way that people don't do any more, because nowadays most of the decisions are made by the computer." In a specially extended report fellow forecaster Ian McCaskill paid tribute to Fish in stating that "Michael is the last of the true weatherman you will ever see. He was retired and made his final forecast on 6 October 2004 on the BBC Ten O'Clock News bulletin. He joined the Met Office in 1962 and started on BBC Radio in 1971, moving to the role on television in 1974.įish was awarded the MBE in 2004 for services to broadcasting. ![]() From 1974 to 2004, he was a television presenter for BBC Weather.Įducated at Eastbourne College and City University London, Fish was the longest-serving broadcast meteorologist on British television.

But the way Mullenweg sees it, open is still going to win. Most people will tell you it feels like the future of tech hangs in the balance. There’s another 17-year-old company named Facebook that flies in the face of everything Mullenweg believes in, and is threatening to own the future of the internet. And yet its founding idea - that software should be available to everyone and editable by anyone, that communities can build great things together, that walled gardens always eventually fall - seems more tenuous than ever. It’s a $7.5 billion company, one of the biggest private companies in the industry. And he’s betting on it every way he can.Įighteen years after he first started working on WordPress, Automattic is more powerful than ever. Most of all, he believes that open-source software is the future of everything. He buys companies that make products he likes, and companies that have missions he believes in. He loves to read and write and work from anywhere, so he turned Automattic into a company that supports bloggers and promotes remote work. He loves jazz, which is why WordPress releases are named for jazz musicians. He started building web software because he wanted a place to store and share his photos he’s a blogger to the core, and loves anything that aids in the free expression of ideas on the internet. In every way that matters, Automattic is a reflection of Mullenweg (you could say he puts the “Matt” in Automattic). But there is one thing that binds the many products under the Automattic umbrella together: a bet on and belief in the open web and open-source software. He talks often about his desire to build "the Berkshire Hathaway of the internet," a holding company populated with the most ambitious and important products and services in tech. It'll be nice not to have to mount and dismount, and it'll work when I'm moving."įrom his always-connected RV, Mullenweg has continued to turn Automattic into a tech giant. "And," Mullenweg said, already planning his next upgrade, "SpaceX has announced they're going to do a mobile version, so whenever that comes, I'll redo the whole thing.

Suddenly, when Mullenweg signed on every morning to do his job as CEO of Automattic, one of the web's largest platforms and most powerful influences, he could do it from anywhere with a cell signal: like one time, last December, when he recorded a Web Summit panel from the side of Highway 97 in Northern California as logging trucks went by. carriers and combines them into a single Wi-Fi network. He's always been the guy who goes over to friends' houses and upgrades their router or just rewires the whole system: "So when I get this RV, what I ended up doing was I set up a multiple-cell phone modem router." It connects to all three major U.S. "I really love networking equipment," he said, in an effort to explain the story he’s about to tell. That makes Mullenweg one of the most powerful CEOs in tech, and one of the most important voices in the debate over the future of the internet.īut before we get to that, you have to hear about this RV. It’s also the owner of the booming ecommerce platform WooCommerce, Day One, the analytics tool Parse.ly and the podcast app Pocket Casts. ![]() ![]() Since WordPress is open-source software, no company technically owns it, but Automattic provides tools and services and oversees most of the WordPress-powered internet.

The tinkering is a part-time gig: Most of Mullenweg’s time is spent as CEO of Automattic, one of the web’s largest platforms. In between, he started doing some tinkering. He drove it all over the country, bouncing between Houston and San Francisco and Jackson Hole with plenty of stops in national parks. No, in the early days of the pandemic, Mullenweg bought an RV.
