3/15/2023 0 Comments Pixlr photoshop![]() ![]() If your goal is to cut out an area so that you have a transparent background behind it, remember that you will want to paste your image into a transparent canvas as a new layer *before* you start cutting anything out. A note about transparency For this second example, I didn't use a transparent background. ![]() I've cut out the monument and isolated it. ![]() Initially, the magic wand only picked up some of that sky, but multiple clicks pretty easily got me to the point where I had selected all of it - and isolated the monument. I chose to cut the area I had selected - the area outside the monument - out of the image. I start with one click of the magic wand. I clicked the sky area outside the monument a few times more while holding down the shift key and was able to select all of the area *outside* of the monument. Using the magic wand with shaded backgrounds Similarly, real-world images like the monument I've included here that have a relatively simple composition with straightforward shading can be easily cut out. I could then copy and paste into another image if that's my goal. The area selected is outlined with flashing pixels. If I choose to cut the area out with a simple "Cut" command, I have the robot all by itself. Pixlr Photo Editor is web-based, it’s free and you don’t even need to create an account to. With Pixlr users get access to work with Layers, Magic Wand Tool, Clone Stamp Tool, and many others. Many of the features that Pixlr Photo Editor offers are very similar to Photoshop. One click with the magic wand, and I've selected the entire area outside of the robot. Pixlr is one of the best and most used online editing softwares. I started by opening a blank, transparent canvas and pasting the Instructables robot into it as a layer. Using the magic wand with illustrations, logos, and simple photos The easiest images to alter are ones like the illustration of the Instructables robot, which is basically a collection of flat colors with very clear outlines. As I did, hold down the shift key as you click to add more areas (pixels) to your selection. Once you begin using the magic wand, you may decide you need to combine additional flashing outline areas to your overall selection. Adjust tolerance down to make your magic wand pickier about choosing the area you want to cut out. Adjust the tolerance up to make the magic wand select pixels that are even more like the one you're clicking on. Hit the delete key or choose Cut from the Edit menu to delete selected areas.Īdjusting the magic wand What the magic wand is doing is looking at the overall photo and choosing pixels that are similar to the one you're clicking on.Hold down the shift key to add more areas to your selection (if needed).The magic wand will outline the area selected with flashing dotted lines. Select the magic wand tool from the toolbar.You've got nothing to lose and an undo button with you at all times. ![]()

3/15/2023 0 Comments Tiny black bugs hard to squish![]() I was going insane,due to the constant swipe of something hitting my legs. I had this infestation in my home maybe 2 1/2 years ago. The room has old antique furniture as well and a bathroom, with no venting solution. I work a care giving job and I'm afraid I might contaminate clients homes by carrying them with me, I use a care backpack. I'm wondering if they can carried from one person and items, to another home. So when we use the hose it sprays out water like a jet through all sides hitting the wall I think it goes down the opening too. The opening to the foundation isn't closed, and badly placed by the water hose faucet, they done it poorly. The window of the room can't close all the way, and it's few feet from a rotting garden and palm trees. We have plyboard popped off the floor from an old renter who had a leaking a/c cooling unit. They stopped for a few minutes then drop from the ceiling like it was downpouring rain, expect it's the bugs still not fully in adult stage. ![]() Thinking to myself it was just a normal bug before researching sprayed all over the room. They told us lavender repels bugs and any cleaning solution with it. Reading everything I could I regret a dumb decision I made, since this house also used to hold bed bugs. I started killing more and more, showing her and I took to Google to find out what they were. My roomate thought I was going crazy, until her dog started sniffing out her bed and attacking things she couldn't see due to her poor vision. The colors still aren't solid through, some are still white in baby stages, thankfully, Im hoping. Today I felt a strong bite and slammed my hand, few minutes following more and more of these things seem to be coming down from the ceiling and jumping around. Hello, I was wondering if anyone found any new way to deal with these bugs? Just yesterday I been feeling crawling all around and seeing things fly, thought it was just putting in to many hours at work and not enough rest. ![]() They are now 10 times worse than they were! I'm waiting on him to come back today. In the evenings there are so many running around it looks as if someone has emptied a jar of pepper all over the place!ĭoes anyone know what they are, where they came from and how can I get rid of them?īTW-My pest control guy was here 2 weeks ago and he sprayed. They don't seem to be too interested in myself or my family but they are really annoying. I have a bug phobia so I'm a little freaked out. I have 4 bags of topsoil in my garage and just noticed these same exact bugs are crawling around atop the bags. ![]() Also, I don't have any pets and my house is extremely clean (I have a one year old running around so I'm always vaccuuming, cleaning, etc.). My pest control guy (he's new) suggested they were carpet beetles, I know they are not. At night I can see around 250 in one room! Last night while on the computer I must have killed 100 of them-within a few minutes! They are now everywhere on my walls, ceilings, in the tub and sinks, etc. When I first saw them, I noticed that they congregated around my air vents. I have a pest control service that comes out once every other month and has been here 3 times in the last 30 days and I still have these bugs. I have these very tiny (smaller than fleas) black bugs all over my house. ![]() ![]() ![]() The disparity is somewhat less pronounced in the popular butterfly knife category, however, due to the tremendous demand for the weapon model, regardless of stats. However, the most popular knife model in "CS:GO" is the butterfly knife, due to the weapon's flashy animations, which are based on real-life knife tricks. Particularly popular (and particularly expensive) knife models include the M9 Bayonet and the wickedly hooked Karambit knife, which are both based on real weapons favored by special forces. Consequently, these skins are especially sought after by collectors. They also generally require stealth, a near-superhuman display of bullet dodging, an incompetent opponent, or some combination of those elements.Įven so, knives are typically used by players with a flair for showmanship, and so Valve has situated knife skins in a rarity category of their own. Of course, it is worth noting that knife kills are not entirely for show, as they award players with a higher bounty than a typical kill. ![]() ![]() For "CS:GO" fans, knife kills are flashy plays on par with a slam dunk in basketball. Additionally, weapon skins come in a variety of qualities, ranging from "Factory New" to "Battle Scarred," which also drastically affects price.Īs evidenced by video compilations showing off knife kills in professional tournaments, these are exciting moments for spectators. Rather, cosmetics come in a variety of rarity categories, and belong to collections of items that are typically only available in crates that drop for a limited amount of time, creating scarcity. These items can be traded between players over Steam's marketplace, and can reach jaw-dropping price tags.Īs explained by the CS.Money blog, the complexity or relative beauty of a cosmetic is typically a non-factor in determining its value. Skins are typically paint jobs or other kinds of metallic finishes that can alter the look of an entire weapon, while stickers are exactly what they sound like: digital decals to stamp on part of a gun. But "Counter-Strike: Global Offensive" introduced a whole new level of transactions to the game with the introduction of digital cosmetics, which come in the form of ' skins' and 'stickers' for weapons and apparel that can be acquired through loot boxes or trades. ![]() 3/15/2023 0 Comments Usmle practice test free![]() ![]() Which of the following is the most appropriate further management of this patient? After an hour of supplemental oxygen, rest, and careful monitoring his dyspnea improves and chest pain resolves without medication. The patient’s weight is 63.5 kg (140 lb), height is 185 cm (6 ft 1 in), and he has a BMI of 18.5 kg/m 2. Temperature is 36.7☌ (98.0☏), blood pressure is 130/80 mm Hg, pulse is 82/min, and respiration rate is 14/min. He smokes half a pack of cigarettes a day and drinks alcohol socially. ![]() His paternal uncle died of an aortic dissection at age 42. He says he has anxiety and takes alprazolam as needed. He reports that the pain is worse with inspiration and does not radiate. This event started when he was in class sitting for an exam. Which of the following additional clinical findings would you expect to be present?Ī 23-year-old man comes to the emergency department presenting with sudden-onset dyspnea and right-sided chest pain over the last hour. A computed tomography (CT) scan of his head is shown in the exhibit. The rest of the examination is within normal limits. An area of bluish discoloration is seen on his left eyelids and cheek. His height and weight are at the 67th and 54th percentile for his age. Physical examination reveals normal vital signs. There is no history of fever or head trauma. His developmental milestones were slightly delayed. His birth history and family history are not available. Past medical history is significant for mild mental retardation and complex partial seizures sometimes leading to secondary generalized seizures.

Next In Line: Nitrile, Aldehyde, Ketone, Alcohol, Thiol, AmineĪgain, this is not a complete list – we’re cherry picking the most commonly encountered functional groups here. The “seniority rules” continue in the following order, where we are cherry-picking the most common examples. ![]() IUPAC goes into way more detail than we need to here. Note that with the exception of sulfonic acids, these are all carboxylic acid derivatives. Highest Priority Groups: Carboxylic Acids, Sulfonic Acids, Esters, Acid Halides, Amides However this really is an example of something you have to either look up, memorize, or have a computer do for you. , although note that there is some correlation between the oxidation state of the carbon and the priority (more oxidized groups tend to be higher priority). However, if a ketone is present with an alcohol (example 3) then we will use the suffix, “-one” because ketones have a higher priority for nomenclature than alcohols. So in example #1 above, the suffix of the molecule will be “-oic acid”, not “-one”, because carboxylic acids are given higher priority. ![]() He functional group with the highest priority will be the one which gives its suffix to the name of the molecule. If you have a molecule with, say, a carboxylic acid and a ketone you consult the table. And so, IUPAC (think of the “Ministry of Magic”, but for chemists) has developed one. We need some kind of priority system for nomenclature. What do you do? What suffix do you give the molecule? But then you come across a molecule which has multiple functional groups. You’re familiar with the familiar naming suffixes like -ol, -ene, -ane, -oic acid and so on. Let’s say you’re trying to name a molecule. How To Determine Which Functional Group Has “Priority” For Naming Purposes ![]() 3/15/2023 0 Comments Merge cells libreoffice![]() This button will do that, but it will also make the rest of the cells you select expand equally to the one the needs to be expanded. The cell will display part of it, but to see everything you would need to make the cell bigger. A good example of what this means is what happens when a cell contains more data than can be displayed. Optimize – This evenly distributes the selected cells either horizontally or vertically.I imagine this is not what most people would expect. ![]() The term horizontal refers to where the divider is drawn, so if you select horizontal it draws a new horizontal border that splits the cell in to two cells one on top of the other. You have the option of splitting horizontally or vertically, but this is a confusing wording. Split Cells – Lets you split a cell into two or more cells.Merge Cells – As you might expect, lets you merge two cells into one.Select it, and give it a different color here. For example, I selected the Turquoise design, but now I want to call out one particular cell. This lets you refine the Table Design you selected earlier.

3/15/2023 0 Comments Music ghostnote![]() ![]() Steve and Elizabeth Thomas have created a truly special venue that most resembles a cozy Scottish pub filled with local personalities and wide-eyed, elated visitors. This page includes GHOST-NOTEs : biography, official website, pictures, videos from YouTube, related forum topics. I was at Thomas Family this past weekend to witness a totally packed house listening to the Celtic trio Highland Reign, and the atmosphere was nothing less than electric.

Our son had plenty of smile and wow moments seeing the trucks doing all kinds of things – donuts were his favorite. We also got the privilege of seeing the brand new 2022 Truck – Velociraptor. Lots of fan favorites like Grave Digger, El Toro Loco, Soldier Fortune and Megalodon. Even after accidents they were quick to repair and finish the events. We had a full line up of 8 trucks and they really gave it their all. To their credit Monster Jam priced them reasonably compared to other merchandise like cotton candy with plastic mask ($30) and snow cone in collector mugs ($30). Ear Protection is a must and we ended up buying $25 ear muffs for the adults because we’d only brought one set for the 4-year old. The reverb off of the concreate grandstand also made is worse. The lightning crack of the exhaust/engine was deafening – like louder than anything I’ve ever head. Only thing, is maybe we couldn't tell how high the jumps really were, which might have added to the wow factor. We could see everything well, even though we were off to the side. We selected tickets that were seated near the top of the Grandstand to have rain cover and not be too close to the exhaust fumes ($40/ticket). Our first time at Monster Jam was quite the experience.

Stay in the loop by checking out the Norton Childrens Hospital Home & BMW Raffle Facebook page. It’s particularly delightful to watch how the various instruments that Cramer plays throughout the course of the performance-ukulele, toy piano, keyboard-materialize onto the stage.Ĭurrently a graduate student in playwriting at the University of California, San Diego, Cramer has already found a thoughtful way to balance narrative theater and performance art here. Jean Kim’s expansive, whimsical set design resembles a classroom as refracted through a funhouse mirror. Morgan Green, the Wilma’s lead artistic director this season, allows the material to unfold with enough variation that the staging never feels repetitious, even as Cramer occasionally repeats gestures and blocking. But it’s also a testament to the importance of the show’s central message. That’s due, at least in part, to goodwill-Cramer has become such an appealing figure over the preceding hour that you can’t help following them into the weeds. I won’t reveal what Cramer has to say about the matter, but admirably and refreshingly, they keep this pivot from feeling didactic even as they hammer home the wonkiest of policy details. The intimate portraiture of School Pictures builds to a pointed treatise on the modern public education system, which throws the personal troubles faced by contemporary scholars into stark relief. Cramer-whose biographical note in the program mentions a childhood marked by speech therapy-is uncommonly sensitive to the struggles of students with deficits in learning acquisition. Although it’s only mentioned explicitly near the end of the show, the vagaries of the pandemic are present throughout, as students and teachers were forced to deal with the ramifications of learning interruptions and Zoom instruction. A surprising number of Cramer’s pupils want to be artists when they grow up, which fascinates the struggling playwright-slash-barista.Ĭramer shows how the obstacles encountered by students don’t exist in a vacuum. Although each student is filtered through the creator’s lens, we begin to pick up on personality traits and differences of experience and background, as Cramer sings about extracurricular activities and career goals. Over the course of an hour, Cramer portrays nine students with admirable individuation. ![]() Part lecture and part song cycle, they disarm the audience with humor in order to ask pointed questions about the state of our schools.
