Thank you, David, for helping me to work out what I need to do! Every client reading this … listen to David, do your homework religiously, and be confident you can get your life back again.Updated 'block placement' logic through the entire mod, so things like building scepters and machines place blocks and keep their NBT data (like shulker boxes) as well as relative player directions, also improved compatibility with any blocks having special onItemUse logic/metadata. Instead of slowing down and having my world become smaller and allowing fear to stop me, I know now there is a lot I can do to control and steer my own future. I am starting a new chapter in my life now that I am retired and I still have a lot of living to do so I am thrilled to be feeling confident that I will be able to travel, cycle, kayak, ski, dance, play pickleball, try jiujitsu and anything else that takes my fancy. The first time I had a full-blown bout of vertigo I was so scared and worried it might be something I’d have to live with and part of getting old, and now I have my mojo back and know I can stay on top of my balance and health by ensuring I continue with a few basic things that David taught me. He helped me to change several of my bad habits and to protect my neck at all times with a simple exercise that I now do faithfully. I learned from David how important one’s neck and brainstem are and several bad habits (hunching over computer, phone, and while reading) over many years can trigger or exacerbate serious issues like vertigo. And I have experienced the frightening vertigo that really stopped me in my tracks. I don’t get full-blown debilitating headaches but have had the weird zigzaggy visual aura that often goes hand in hand with migraines. There seems to be a lot of confusion and misinformation surrounding the whole vertigo/migraine biso. ![]() in that he looks at your whole life and habits – stress, sleeping habits and position, posture, fitness, everything and I think having this multi-pronged approach to tackle serious issues like migraines and vertigo is crucial.

In 2011, Intel Capital press officer Jordan Balk Schaer announced a new fund to support startups working on technologies in line with the company's concept for next generation notebooks. As of 2021, while Intel maintains the Ultrabook trademark, it is rarely used for new models and has been superseded in Intel's own marketing by the Intel Evo branding. They were originally marketed as featuring ultra thin form factor and light weight design without compromising battery life or performance, and when the term was originated they generally were enough smaller than average laptop models to qualify as subnotebooks.Īs ultrabook features became more mainstream in the mid-late 2010s, explicitly branding laptop models as ultrabooks became much less frequent. Ultrabook is a marketing term, originated and trademarked by Intel, for a category of high-end laptop computers. And while Samsung doesn't market it as a gaming laptop, its powerful chipset and NVIDIA GPU allow it to serve as one.Intel Evo platform (code name Project Athena) In contrast, the Galaxy Book 3 Ultra is geared toward those who want a Windows laptop with incredible processing power. The optional 5G support also makes it a good choice for anyone on the go. With its included S Pen, it can also be used to draw, take notes, and annotate documents. ![]() The Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360 is for anyone who wants a convertible laptop that can be used like a tablet. The Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360 starts at $1,699 and goes up to $1,899, while the Galaxy Book 3 Ultra starts at $2,199 and goes up to $2,999. Despite having the same battery capacity, Samsung ships the Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360 with a 65W USB-C adapter, while the Galaxy Book 3 Ultra comes with a 100W Type-C charger. Both support Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.1, but the Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360 also has 5G. However, while the Galaxy Book 3 Ultra has an HDMI 2.1 port, the Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360 has an HDMI 1.4 port. The two laptops also have a USB 3.2 Type-A port and two USB-C Thunderbolt 4 ports. Both have AKG quad speakers with Dolby Atmos, a headphone jack, a 1080p webcam, studio-quality dual mics, a microSD card slot, and a fingerprint scanner. On the other hand, the Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360 has an Intel Core i7-1360P processor, an Intel Iris Xe integrated GPU, 16GB of RAM, and 512GB or 1TB SSD storage. The Core i9 and i7 models come with 32GB and 16GB of RAM, respectively, and users can opt for 512GB or 1TB of built-in storage. Buyers can choose between the Intel Core i9-13900H with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU and the Intel Core i7-13700H with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop GPU. Performance is where the Galaxy Book 3 Ultra shines, thanks to its high-end processing package options. ![]() The Galaxy Book 3 Ultra lacks touch and stylus support and doesn't have a 360-degree hinge. Buyers don't have to purchase an S Pen separately either since it's included in the box. ![]() With its 360-degree hinge, the 16-inch display, which also supports touch input and is compatible with the S Pen stylus, can be folded backward and used as a tablet. The Galaxy Book 3 Pro 360, like the other 360 models before it, is a 2-in-1 convertible. ![]() UPDATE: A closer look at the “Carpe Diem” Nike Kobe 11 via eBay.

The ear converts sound waves into electrical nerve impulses, similar to a microphone.įigure 14.11 shows the anatomy of the ear with its division into three parts: the outer ear or ear canal the middle ear, which runs from the eardrum to the cochlea and the inner ear, which is the cochlea itself. The sound wave that hits our ear is a pressure wave. The way we hear involves some interesting physics. The perception of frequency is called pitch, and the perception of intensity is called loudness. Sounds below 20 Hz are called infrasound, whereas those above 20,000 Hz are ultrasound. You may have noticed that dogs respond to the sound of a dog whistle which produces sound out of the range of human hearing. Dogs can hear sounds as high as 45,000 Hz, whereas bats and dolphins can hear up to 110,000 Hz sounds. ![]() Other animals have hearing ranges different from that of humans. Humans can normally hear frequencies ranging from approximately 20 to 20,000 Hz. It can give us plenty of information-such as pitch, loudness, and direction. A voice becomes louder when air flow from the lungs increases, making the amplitude of the sound pressure wave greater. A voice changes in pitch when the muscles of the larynx relax or tighten, changing the tension on the vocal chords. This vibration escapes the mouth along with puffs of air as sound. As air travels up and past the vocal cords, it causes them to vibrate. These folds open and close rhythmically, creating a pressure buildup. People create sounds by pushing air up through their lungs and through elastic folds in the throat called vocal cords. Power is the rate at which energy is transferred by the wave. In general, the intensity of a wave is the power per unit area carried by the wave. Figure 14.10 shows such a cartoon depiction of a bird loudly expressing its opinion.Ī useful quantity for describing the loudness of sounds is called sound intensity. In cartoons showing a screaming person, the cartoonist often shows an open mouth with a vibrating uvula (the hanging tissue at the back of the mouth) to represent a loud sound coming from the throat. But in a traffic jam filled with honking cars, you may have to shout just so the person next to you can hear Figure 14.9.The loudness of a sound is related to how energetically its source is vibrating. In a quiet forest, you can sometimes hear a single leaf fall to the ground. ![]() Sound intensity is defined as the sound power per unit area, whereas amplitude is the distance between the resting position and the crest of a wave. While sound intensity is proportional to amplitude, they are different physical quantities. Students may be confused between amplitude and intensity. Other than that really it's what it looks and sounds like. You'll have to get lucky or plan an elaborate path to get those medals. One smaller thing is, that the Music got a bit repetitive and felt out of place in some Eras, so prepare your own Music if you plan on playing it for longer.Īnother smaller thing is that some levels are pretty much impossible to do within the Medal time limits for some levels as they require creatures to spawn. I didn't hate it at all, it's pretty solid, but since I did play it all in one go, the concept got a bit tired, and there are also the recap-levels at the end of every stage making you go through the same things again rather than the - partially - inventive level ideas coming to a peak of some sorts. I just played through it in one sitting which really REALLY isn't something you should be doing by all means, This game is hard for me to really review. The price really isn't too bad considering a slightly inferior version of the game is (was?) being sold online for a few bucks more.Īll in all I would recommend this game to people who grew up playing flash games online and want to experience the rush of completing level after level again. These small details add so much to the feel of the game and make it extremely comfortable to play. There's something about this game that is really satisfying, every time you eat something you get a nice little sound effect and see the grey blob grow a little. Soundtrack is generic elevator music, but it does fit the mood and doesn't get old. It's very hard for me to fairly rate this game without letting my nostalgia goggles get in the way, but I honestly think it's a very fun flash game with addicting (though not exactly deep) gameplay. I'm glad they brought it to steam, though I can't say I was expecting this at all. ![]() My favorite flash game of all time, used to play the series over and over again when I was younger.
![]() And some of the pictograms aren't even buttons, while others have multiple functions that can only be worked out through trial and error. As the buttons are capacitive you have to press them multiple times - each with an attendant beep - instead of holding them down to do tasks such as tuning the radio. Lastly, the interface is quite confusing - particularly on the front of the unit. While it's twice the price of the TEAC, the Zeppelin is so much better at filling a room with sound. You'll need to sit dead-on to the unit or miss the subtleties and presence this unit is capable of. Secondly, the sound is quite directional, which is quite unusual for a unit designed to spread music over a large area. We flicked off all the lights in the room and had to squint to see the LEDs flicker at all. Firstly, and most humorously, the "colour LED subwoofer" is a bit of a joke, small LEDs in the base flash in time to the music, but they won't get your disco moving - unless you stand very, very close to the bottom of the unit. While the TEAC's a very good unit it does have a couple of downsides. While the iTB1000 sounds better than your average mini-system it does compete with the LG FB163, a device half the price which will also play DVDs and was tuned by "hi-fi professional" Mark Levinson. It just sounds a little thin, and the amount of bass wasn't unpleasant enough to warrant turning it off. While you can turn sub off, we suggest you don't. The system certainly provides lots of treble, and vocals have a reasonable amount of detail, but due to the physics of the thing there's a bunch of lower mid-range missing. This system will run - that's run and not ruin - many a house party.īut if you feel like notching down the adrenalin levels a tad then you'll find that the "Tall Boy" can handle it: Nick Drake's Pink Moon worked a lot better than we imagined it would, though the guitar was a little too boomy. And we found it did this quite well, coping with the complexities of LCD Soundsystem's bowel-rumbling bass, at full bore, without cracking a sweat. This isn't a dock for sitting and appreciating jazz fusion or the like: it's designed to turn up loud. It wants to rock your party!Ĭonsidering that the two "stereo" drivers are centimetres apart there's not that much in the way of stereo separation. ![]() ![]() While it's not "hi-fi" in the same way that the Monitor Audio i-Deck or the B&W Zeppelin is it actually has less lofty aspirations. We've seen plenty of sub-standard docks in our time, and we're pleasantly surprised to say this is one of the better ones. We'll admit that we didn't have many expectations for the performance of the TEAC, and in this way it surprised us. ![]() It's a simple affair with an off-white backlight. The LCD display, on the other hand, not so much. The front-mounted controls are touch-capacitive and stand out with their red backlight. If you want an iPod dock with features, then the TEAC provides them: it has an AM/FM radio with alarm clock, S-Video out and a "colour LED subwoofer" - or "disco lights". We do like the ATT/MUTE button, however, one press attenuates and two presses mutes the dock. But since you can't view the iPod's interface via the video-out the menu buttons aren't very useful - if you can read the iPod screen you're close enough to touch it anyway. The remote is relatively classy for an iPod dock, and while it doesn't provide much in the way of functionality it does let you control the iPod. ![]() PokerTracker is well worth getting: it’s great for tracking, stats and analysis, as well as being well worth the price tag.Well, after using PT4 like 4 years, I'm totally convinced, that there is no better HUD, than the one you will configure by your hands. It might seem overwhelming for newbies to the software, but don’t panic. PokerTracker 4 (PT4) is an essential tool for anyone who’s serious about winning, and we are going to help you set it up. Let’s walk through setting up PokerTracker and PostgreSQL with PokerStars as an example: PokerTracker 4 is compatible with a large number of poker sites and networks. If you have any problems, you can also search their forums, make a new thread in their support section, or contact their excellent customer service who will help you out. What if I have any problems with PokerTracker? If you use a heads-up display (HUD), you can see all these stats while playing, and use previously-developed reads to exploit. You can look over hands they played, examine their poker statistics and see if any leaks stick out. Online poker tracking software lets you get a better sense of how your opponents play, so you can exploit them. How does online poker tracking software work? Read more in our comprehensive Poker Tracker 4 review. If used properly, it should pay for itself. PokerTracker is well worth getting: it’s great for tracking, stats and analysis, as well as being well worth the price tag. Let’s dig into these numbers a bit deeper though. In general, an AF of 1 is extremely passive, an AF of 2 is moderately passive, an AF of 3 is a normal moderately aggressive player, and any AF of 4 and above is starting to get into over-aggressive territory. Much higher, and you are probably overplaying speculative hands and bad hands, and bluffing too much. What is a good Agg range? 50% to 60% is ideal, assuming that you have a VPIP of 15% to 20%. There are just too many players to keep track of. This is especially important if you multi-table or play Zoom poker. ![]() The PokerTracker HUD allows you to get those crucial “reads” on your opponents that you need when you are playing online poker. Around 40% of the pot is more common in high stakes cash games. But in general, you want to make it around 60% of the pot in small stakes cash games. Winning regulars often have statistics closer to 28/20 or 27/19 at the higher stakes.įinding the right CBet size is a little bit more tricky because it depends heavily on the type of game you are playing and the player type you are up against. As you move up in stakes, the rake (the amount taken from each pot by the poker room) decreases as a percentage of the pot and players are able to use wider ranges. Solid regulars generally have a VPIP/PFR between 19/17 and 25/23. Leave the bluffing for the movies and for live play. Much lower and you are not playing your good hands strongly postflop. It’s that easy! What’s a good Vpip?ĥ0% to 60% is ideal, assuming that you have a VPIP of 15% to 20%. From there, PokerTracker 4 will place the HUD on your table. All you have to do is make sure that PokerTracker 4 is open and that it is automatically importing hand histories as you are playing. This means that the expression is built from the Column ‘cnt_p_3bet’ divided by the Column ‘cnt_p_3bet_opp’, multiplied by 100 to get a percentage.Įnabling your HUD is simple. For “3Bet Preflop” the expression is “(cnt_p_3bet / cnt_p_3bet_opp) * 100”. ![]() ![]() The “Value Expression” field shows the calculation being used. However these are the 5 best poker HUD stats to have on your table. There are many more useful preflop and postflop stats to have such as 4Bet% and flop, turn and river CBet. Here is the short answer: The best poker HUD stats to have are VPIP, PFR, AF, 3Bet% and ATS. ![]() ![]()
![]() First and foremost, the beach is wide and gorgeous. Like many resorts in the Punta Cana region, the features here are almost too numerous to list, and the all-inclusive rates provide access to almost all of them. Mosquitos can be bad, so all rooms also include mosquito spray. ![]() Preferred Club rooms come with a host of in-resort extras including private check-in, plus in-room extras like pillow menus and better bath products. Some balconies are better than others and - for a splurge - rooms with private plunge pools or shared, walk-out pools are available. Balconies are a nice perk - especially ones with ocean views - and all have outdoor whirlpool tubs. Rainfall showers, hairdryers, and beauty mirrors come standard as well, though the bathrooms are a little challenging to navigate due to their layouts. Bathrooms are tricked out in marble and feature double sinks, though the sink area is located right next to the entryway door and separated from the main room by a pocket door. Other standard features include irons and ironing boards, safes, minibars stocked with free beer, soda, water, and snacks like chips and candy bars, plus coffeemakers. In-room tech ranges from flat-screen Smart TVs to MP3 docks, free Wi-Fi, and wall-integrated USB plugs. The angular lines of funky trapezoidal desks plus wooden tripod lamps add to the overall modern vibe. Shimmery white, bright green, and wood make up the wall accents and complement the fold-out love seats, coffee tables, bed runners, and honeycombed wall murals. The resort's rooms are bright and modern, with tropical touches like bamboo-trunk room dividers, and king (or two double) beds with leaf-patterned headboards. In general, guests are families from the United States, though the property sees quite a few honeymooners as well. This is definitely a family-friendly getaway and when kids aren't hanging out in the kids' and teen clubs, they're running around the pool and beach. There are also lots of scheduled activities, like Spanish classes, circus shows, belly dancers, and live bands. The gorgeous beach is situated at the resort’s far end and has lots of room to relax, play around, or party between dips in the turquoise sea. Coralina-tile pathways that crisscross the grounds and an arched water fountain lead to an outdoor chapel with ocean views, making destination weddings an option here. The resort’s grounds are full of grassy fields, palm tree, and flowers, but during our 2017 visit, they were still a bit too immature to be called lush. Little accents like exposed wood and earthy green give everything a tropical touch, which makes sense as the overall vibe here is beachy and relaxed. Now Onyx Punta Cana opened in late 2016 and it's one of the fresher properties in the area, with sleek interiors that feel bright, breezy, and just a touch rustic. |
