Ok, progress is slower than I would want, but there just is not enough hours in one day. So much other stuff in my life right now, but pulling demo level together, not sure when it it will be ready to play. Still, slowly making progress.
Core started following About decals, Change Map / Replace Old Map With New Map, What is causing "shadow banding" and and 2 others
Change Map / Replace Old Map With New Map
Core replied to gamecreator's topic in ProgrammingThis is somewhat offtopic, but regarding the example provided on the API reference using Clear(), where it is actually used? I've noticed that sometimes when you look something from API reference, the example is not actually helping at all on how to use specific function etc.
Link worked here too! Cool stuff.
First steps in creating real playable demolevel. Like building legos and creating new bits as I need them. FUN stuff.
Ok, good to know! Since Leadwerks is actually THE only modern engine I have ever used, there is so much basic stuff I need to learn... But nice to know there are ways to overcome this.
Jesus, I got it! First of all, it only happens with spotlights and if you have more than one on the same area. Point lights cause no banding/stripes. With spotlights, you can greatly reduce or even get rid of it by randomly rotating them around Y-axis to make sure they are not "lined up" with each other. First image shows situation where banding occurs: And here all four spots are rotated randomly around Y axis, and banding is gone:
What is causing "shadow banding"
Core posted a question in Technical AssistanceHi! I have noticed this here and there every once in a while, but now that I'm finally building a map with aesthetics in mind, I think it is time to dig deeper into this. So what is causing this banding with shadows, and how I'm able to prevent it from happening? I understand that it must be some kind of limitation with the engine, but just knowing how to avoid it would be awesome! Thanks again for any tips. Edit. Oh, numerous times I've been asked to send a map for an example. I would, but noobish question... How? What files I should include? Is there an easy way "create" a file that includes everything you need to run a map on another computer? Thanks again.
Pick up problem
Core posted a topic in ProgrammingI have simple problem. I want to be able to remove cover/lid/door off some objects before I have access to them. Now I have it working with this simple script: Script.cover = nil function Script:Start() self.cover = self.entity:FindChild("DoorElectronics1_11_cover") self.cover:SetMass(0) end function Script:Use(player) self.cover:SetMass(1) end So when I "use" parent entity, it makes the cover (child) to fall off. This is ok, but I want to be able to pick it up or even pick it up from it's place without dropping it to the floor. I have an idea how I will store covers original position to be able to put it even back to it's original place, but I can't seem to figure out how I can make the object from static to act like normal simple pickupable object with physics. Like the basic one when you have no script, set it's collision type to prob and give it a mass. Here is video demonstration: Edit. Ah, ok. It does not work if object I'm trying to pick up is parented to a static object. So self.cover:SetParent(nil) did the trick.
About decals
Core replied to Core's topic in General DiscussionOk, thanks for your answer. That gives me something to think about. I'm going to "stresstest" decals, but what ever happens, I will use them at key points at least, I like how they blend to the material And thanks for paper suggestion, I thought about that too, I'm just worried it will look like it is flowing above the floor/table or when set properly to the right level, is glitching with the underlying texture. But, will test.
Saving the game
Core replied to AlexGCC's question in Technical AssistanceI found this: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=413295203&searchtext= I have not tried it yet, but I'm guessing it will need you to know atleast basics of lua scripting!
About decals
Core posted a topic in General DiscussionI'm planning to use LOT'S of decals in my project. I will use them to for signs, labels, dirt etc. My question is, before I go ahead, do they eat lot of processing power? What if I have a prefab with ten decals and then I have that prefab used in 20 different places? Even hundreds? Well, yes best way is to test it But wanted to ask if it is just plain stupid thing to do one should not even try. Another question, can we have emissive decals? I created "Emissive decal" by applying it over emissive surface (needed to reverse the decal though), but although it works, It is not usable in many scenarios. And yet another question, how would you create a piece of paper with text on it? I planned to use decal for that, but it obviously looks like painted to the surface, not separate piece of paper.
I've been using Blender on my laptop and just now moved a bunch of models to my more powerful pc where I use Leadwerks. Included was the model of Celeste-ship. It looked so epic and massive in my current test scene where I play around and test models, so I just had to do a "flyby". Adding sun and sky made it look cooler, but otherwise pretty much made everything else wonky so please don't mind. But decided to record a video. SEV Celeste flies first time ever!
Thank you Christian, I will watch that video asap! And also thanks for your compliment, it really means a lot! Edit. Watched the video now with time, very cool indeed. Currently I'm creating assets that use general materials, I don't bake anything model specific. It has it's pros and cons. Pros are that I can use one material in several models, places and I can change colors and materials on the fly, very nice and fast for prototyping at least. Cons are that I don't bake even normal maps, so for example round edges are actually round. Takes a lot of polygons, for example that device with all the switches and stuff uses about 3000 polygons. But with all the processing power we have nowdays available etc... We well see how far I can go like this. I created big controlling console with lots of bells and whistles and although it is not ment to be used in many places in game, Im still a bit worried, it has 28000 polygons... I will start baking maps when I'm happy with models, see that they work in environment like intended and their material choices are ok.
Ah, ok. Thanks for explaining. Very nice, but pretty advanced stuff, will look in to it at some point. I have more basic things to tackle in the meantime
Thanks! I had to Google what is AO map . If I understood correctly, it bakes ambient light to the texture. Sounds cool, I will look in to this in the future. But does not ambient light (in scene root) do the same thing? I had it turned off actually when taking that screenshot.

Construction drawings and CAD tools. Moreover, you can also enjoy powerful CAD software engine from this software. There is no doubt that it includes a variety of tools that will be helpful for your construction drawings. You can use these tools to create the best floor plans, elevation views and cross sections until more detail construction drawings.
Skip wall cabinets and opt for open shelving (in clean, unfinished wood) for a more modern feel. Add a matte black KitchenAid, and we are totally swooning.
If you're hesitant to go full-on bold with a bright or deep color (but really want something different), perhaps you might consider just a hint of a color like the barely blush wall color in this kitchen. Sometimes, all you need to create a small dining area for one or two is a tiny table tucked in any open space you might have between cabinets and your appliances, like in this hyper efficient (and totally lust-worthy) kitchen.

Mmm yes, programming Perl. I like it, I like it a lot. Need much more practice, however. I'm just real stoked to be on the same forum as merlyn when I saw that he was here I could hardly believe it. It's great, I have gotten help from some of you guys already. Thanks a lot for that. Other than that I love OpenBSD, too bad about the DARPA funds being pulled, Theo is solid. I do use linux at work tho. I guess I'll be updating this from time to time. For now ciao!

A smarter way to clean the air
March 15, 2014
Few things more annoying to a driver than smelling a putrid smoke cloud coming from the tailpipe of an old beatup car that you just know is spewing all kinds of foul emissions into the air.
Thankfully, each year there are fewer and fewer of these smog makers still on the road, now so few that the Environmental Protection Agency is considering dropping or phasing out tailpipe emissions tests for these dinosaurs. Independent testers also say there are too few cars over 18-years-old still on the road for the bulk of testing stations to justify spending thousands of dollars on specialized emissions testing equipment. They're both right and we could benefit from smarter emissions regulation over an outdated one-size-fits-all approach.
Cars of any age are the biggest spewers of nitrogen oxides, a precursor to lung-choking bad air that can cause bronchitis, emphysema and aggravate heart conditions. Gradually ending testing of cars that already are 18-years-old or older would allow resources and investments to be deployed where they can do the most good — making sure that newer, cleaner cars stay clean. At the same time, the shift would free the vast majority of testing stations from having two types of expensive equipment to conduct emissions tests.
Currently, cars from model years 1990-95 are put on rollers to simulate driving conditions as part of a test of tailpipe emissions, and newer cars, which are several times cleaner, are tested through a cheaper, sophisticated diagnostic technology built into the vehicle. The equipment to test older cars costs about $40,000 and requires a $4,000 yearly service contract, considerably more than the equipment needed to test newer models. To no one's surprise, older cars flunk emissions tests more often than newer models, but there has be a middle ground that balances the cost of testing a diminishing number of older cars against making sure newer cars remain road worthy.
But rather than require independent testers to invest in expensive little-used equipment that impacts about 6 percent of cars, a wiser alternative would be to allow older cars to be tested at a few convenient centralized stations subsidized and licensed only to operate the older equipment. Older cars would still get an examination and other testing stations could concentrate on the newer cars. The transition would be gradual, say over five years, so testers could make the adjustment and smoke-belchers wouldn't foul air with impunity.

Have you lost weight to no avail, the lost kilos have crept back on almost immediately? Did the latest miracle cure promise ten kilos weight loss, but you only went down by two? Let's find the reasons!
The problem is not in your apparatus, but in the diets! Get to know the stumbling blocks, so you will know what to do in order to slim and stay slim!
Our extra kilos: if we throw them out the door, do they climb back through the window?
There is nothing more horrific than when days and weeks of self-mortifying dieting do not produce the desired result, or if they do, then only temporarily. A couple of tasty snacks, and the detested spare tyre is back again. But how can it be that a diet does not slim you, or that its effect only lasts as long as the diet? And what can be done about it so as to finally lose weight?
Diets reduce basic metabolism
The human body is very clever: when we take in less nutrition than we need for an extended time, it starts to economise: it reduces metabolism.
This means that it cuts down its own requirements, or it adjusts itself so that whilst up till now it has used, say, 2000 calories of energy for its functions, now it does everything with 1500. Then on completion of the diet, we realise that "we are gaining weight just on water". During the Turbo Diet plans, the nutrient intake is balanced. In our shake meals, we are consuming a special protein preparation which has been created by nutritional science experts, so that it provides the body with all necessary nutrients, so it does not switch over to hoarding mode. In fact! If you have succeeded in confusing your metabolism during various diets, in the Turbo plans you can rectify it, as you will eat regularly once again, which the body will detect, and will according get back onto the right track!
You do not lose fat during diet
During reduced calorie intake, a minimal amount of the kilos lost by the body is actually fat loss – the rest is water, excreted toxins, and what is the biggest problem: muscle. The body always utilises muscle first of all, as it can gain extra energy from this most easily, and only after this does it used the fat stores. Weight loss is therefore only apparent: the spare tyre will still be there.
By providing the body with 40% protein intake, the Turbo Dieta shake shields the muscles from degradation, the body will be forced to replace the missing energy from the fatty tissues.
What is the secret to finally losing weight?
Don't get into miracle cures, which only lead to self-torture and unfair results, and which only harm your body and soul. Respect and love yourself as much as others: don't give bitterness and apparent results in exchange for your efforts – grant yourself the joy of real and final weight loss, a healthier and more attractive essential you! Turbo Diet can help you with this!

This post is part of our symposium on democratizing administrative law. You can find all the posts in the series here.
Conor Dwyer Reynolds —
Environmental law has never felt so undemocratic. On nearly every aspect of environmental protection, the federal government is disconnected from the desires of its citizens. Despite overwhelming public support for increased government action on the environment, the Environmental Protection Agency's workforce is shrinking, industry lobbyists increasingly regulate their former employers, and polluters face fewer and fewer inspections and criminal prosecutions. And while the majority of Americans believe climate change is an "urgent" problem the government needs to do "a lot" about, the Trump Administration proposes rules which will exacerbate greenhouse gas emissions, like its methane rollback plan.
It's easy to feel powerless in the face of this delay and destruction. Petitions can be signed, protests can be attended, but at day's end, those actions don't seem to direct or decide environmental policy. Government officials do. The best most citizens can hope for is that a still-distant election will produce a friendlier administration, one that will manage to embrace our priorities despite the immense influence of industry.
There's an irony beneath that sense of powerlessness, one that reveals a tragic flaw in modern environmental law. I want to both explore that flaw and introduce a tool from environmental law's past that might help fix it. It's a tool that entrusts ordinary people to decide: the jury.

LIVINGSTON (AP) — Meredith Brokaw is quietly putting down roots in southwest Montana, even though she never set out to do that. In fact, when her husband, TV journalist Tom Brokaw, bought the ranch on the West Boulder River in 1989, she wasn't sure about this place at all.
''For six months, Meredith refused even to visit,'' Tom Brokaw wrote in the foreword to his wife's new book.
But eventually she was persuaded and, ''the truth is, that by the end of that first day I knew that owning the ranch would turn into a love story, and it has,'' she wrote.
For a South Dakota born-and-bred gal, that first visit triggered a ''very real physical sense of homecoming.''
''We soon discovered that this wasn't just a place to inhabit; it was a world of its own and a way of life,'' Brokaw wrote.
Her new book, ''Big Sky Cooking'' ($35 Artisan), co-authored with longtime friend Ellen Wright, captures that passion for the Last Best Place. It comes through in her personal essays about life on the ranch, in the beautiful photographs and in the recipes for the simple-yet-sophisticated fare, which she says is ''by and large, really the way we cook at the ranch.''
''I made the short ribs at cow camp last night,'' she said recently, referring to the Dutch oven short ribs on page 114. The book is about food. But it's also an homage to Montana. And she's been pleasantly surprised to find it rings true to Montanans.
''I think this is absolutely wonderful,'' one woman gushed at a recent book-signing.
''It is such a lovely book,'' another woman raved.
Brokaw, 65, said she had been a tad nervous about what the locals would think.
''But it strikes a chord with people who know Montana,'' she said. That's a relief, she said, because she reveals a lot about herself in the book.
''I really opened the door and let you come in. And it feels right.''
Perched on a cowhide-covered stool, the heels of her cowboy boots hooked on the bottom rung, Brokaw signed books recently at Way Out West, a boutique-feed store just off U.S. Highway 89 South. Brokaw said she likes the store and regularly shops there.
''It's one of the nicest stores in town,'' she said, almost whispering, as if not wanting to be overhead by anyone who might take offense.
On the counter in front of her were piles of ''Big Sky Cooking.'' The cover photo features the front porch of a log home, which is the Brokaw ranch guest house, she said.
She and Tom live in the old farmhouse, which is ''very ordinary,'' she said. ''I love it.''
That affinity for simplicity and authenticity appears sincere.
''The Montana ranchers whom we've met are self-contained, accomplished, no-nonsense, 'can do' people,'' she wrote. ''They have to be, given their isolation and the difficulty of living in this relatively remote, sometimes harsh climate. The transplants — meaning you weren't born here — have to like and appreciate these virtues or they don't stay.''
She appreciates those virtues and has no qualms about sharing her love of Montana with friends and family, who come and go from the ranch all summer. One regular guest has been Wright, Brokaw's friend of 30 years, and her husband Joe.
Wright, founder of a New York interior design firm, has been ''cooking seriously since 1960,'' she wrote in her essay, ''Friendship.''
She's the one who talked Brokaw into writing the book.
''After writing two cookbooks, I thought I had tasted, or was familiar with, almost everything,'' Wright wrote. ''Then I was introduced to the meats and fresh produce available in the West: bison, elk, antelope, chokecherries and huckleberries, to name a few. I didn't realize how much I would learn, and it didn't take me long to love it all.''
The result of their shared enthusiasm is the 224-page book organized around menus for different times of the day: ''Sunrise,'' ''High Noon,'' ''Dusk'' and ''Under the Stars.'' Many of the dishes are from ''retooled family See COOKING, Page D5 standbys,'' others are ''reinterpreted classics,'' and still others were invented by Wright.
There are even a few contributions from locals, including a watermelon and feta salad inspired by Big Timber caterer Susan Pauli; cinnamon rolls perfected by Val Lovely of Val's Deli in Wilsall; and cheese grits crafted by Laurie Buffet McGuane.
The recipes feature ingredients fresh from the garden, eggs from the hen house, bison raised on the ranch and morel mushrooms, chokecherries and huckleberries collected wherever and whenever they can be found. The book also features essays by local writers and artists who are friends of the Brokaws: Thomas McGuane, William ''Gatz'' Hjortsberg, Jim Harrison, Verlyn Klinkenborg and James Prosek.
As Brokaw signed books, the shoppers moved on to look around the store and locals picked up bags of dog food and swapped horse stories. Then suddenly, the room grew quiet. Tom Brokaw, on his way back from an interview with Gov. Brian Schweitzer for a documentary on post-Sept. 11 America, had strolled in. But just as quickly, everyone had a look and went back to their business. The chatter resumed. The Brokaws exchanged details of their day. And then Tom left to head back to the ranch.
What's it like being married to a guy who has that effect on people?
''That was kind of funny, wasn't it?'' Meredith mused. But she must be used to it. They've been together a long time.
These days the two are finding more time to spend on the ranch, she said. They continue to divide their time between Montana and New York, she said. As to whether they'll become year-round Montana residents, she said, ''We're inching that way.''

Asset management specialist Spicerhaart Corporate Sales has joined forces with fact-finding experts Excel and UK law firm TLT to create an interest-only solution for lenders.
The approach is tailored for lenders with interest-only customers that are coming to maturity, with full guidance throughout the journey to resolution. This applies to repayment, conversion, re-mortgage, the sale of a property, or if there is no other solution.
In May 2018, there were 1.7 million interest-only mortgages outstanding in the UK with around 200,000 due to mature by 2020, according to UK Finance.
While most of these customers will engage with their lenders and agree to a resolution, Spicerhaart aims to assist those borrowers that are more reluctant, either because they do not like their options or they have no way of paying back the outstanding debt.
The new partnership brings together experts in field, legal and asset management.
Excel, an FCA-regulated financial services company, are experts in face-to-face engagement and fact-finding with customers to understand individual circumstances, while Spicerhaart can assist the customer from a property-related perspective.
"Over the past few years, lenders have successfully implemented a wide range of strategies to contact their interest-only customers," Dave Miller, client manager at Spicerhaart Corporate Sales, commented.
He said that despite this, a proportion of those who are the most vulnerable of customers are still failing to engage, while others are now past their term expiry date with no official agreement in place for resolution.
Laurence Venn, chief executive officer at Excel, added: "Our proposition addresses the difficulty lenders face in resolving every case and is aimed at avoiding drift, which so often can occur in these difficult situations."
Graham Walters, partner at TLT, said: "We aim to provide absolute resolution both for the customer and the lender based on the customer's individual circumstances. This is an issue that needs to be dealt with and we believe that our approach can assist to achieve this."
Miller explained that although lenders are seeing greater success now in terms of engaging interest-only customers, there are still many customers either unable or unwilling to engage, which presents a 'real challenge' for lenders.
"That is why we have created this proposition; we are able to combine all the expertise needed to be able to find the best solution for both lenders and their customers," he concluded.

Kasey Kahne took his second Sprint Cup victory of the season, narrowly beating team-mate Jeff Gordon at Pocono.
Kahne looked to have thrown the race away when he made a mess of a restart with eight laps to go, allowing Gordon, who turned 42 on the day of the race, to pull away and look like he was going to take victory. However, another caution flag just four laps later allowed Kahne to make amends for his earlier mistake, blasting around the outside of Gordon and taking the win.
"I knew Jeff was going to be tough," said Kahne. "I felt like he was beating me on restarts a little bit. He was on my left rear off of turn one, and was able to kind of side draft me down the backstretch and just stayed under me. He finally got by off turn three. So at that point, I just tried to stay with him. We had five laps, so I thought I may get another opportunity to get by, but it was tough. It seemed like with him in clean air, it was going to take more than five laps. It was going to take more like ten laps.
"Then the caution came out, and on that caution, I just knew it was two laps to go, it's whoever gets the lead, whoever gets clear is going to win the race. I had some help from Kurt Busch, pushed me down the front stretch, and I just drove into one as far as I felt I could, and I got some speed and momentum down the back and beat Jeff to turn two. That was kind of the race at that point. Once I cleared him getting into two, from there it was just don't make a mistake and try to run the quick lap on that last one."
Gordon ended the race in second, followed by Busch, Brickyard 400 winner Ryan Newman and Dale Earnhardt, Jr.
"It's funny how your emotions go up and down in this sport. Before the race, if you had told me I could finish second, that would have been a great birthday gift," said Gordon. "But when you're leading and you take the lead from Kasey the way we did, I thought we had him."
It was a successful weekend for Hendrick Motorsports, not only having three cars in the top five (Kahne, Gordon and Earnhardt, Jr.) but having a new track record after Jimmie Johnson dominated qualifying. It was the same story at the start of the race, with many believing it would be another win for the #48 driver. However, 78 laps in to the race, having led 43 of them, Johnson's right-front tyre blew, forcing him in to the wall and in to the pits for repairs.
The team discovered that Johnson's impact had in fact knocked a spark plug wire loose, meaning he was running on seven cylinders. Despite the issue, Johnson still managed to end the race in 13th in a real damage limitation mission.
Johnson's incident was one of many in an action-packed race, that saw Rickie Stenhouse, Jr. and Juan Pablo Montoya bring out the opening caution on the very first lap of the afternoon. Denny Hamlin then joined in, crashing the #11 out on Lap 14 and finishing last, his sixth result of 30th or worse this season.
The biggest incident of the day occurred on lap 110 when Danica Patrick got loose and made contact with Travis Kvapil, instigating a four-car pile up involving Jeff Burton and Paul Menard. Finally, Matt Kenseth, who was caught up in Montoya and Stenhouse's first lap incident, brought out the final caution of the day four laps from time when he lost control and spun the #20.

Defence Ministry rejects proposal for Tawang airport
August 11, 2010
Press Trust of India (PTI)
August 9, 2010,
ITANAGAR -- The Defence Ministry has rejected a
proposal to construct an airport at the Buddhist
town of Tawang as it is located close to the
Sino-India border, the state government said today.
"They have rejected the proposal but I have taken
up the issue with Defence Minister A K Antony and
he has assured me to relook into the demand,"
Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Dorjee Khandu told reporters here.
At present Tawang, the home district of Khandu,
is linked by a daily helicopter service from Guwahati through Bhutan.
Meanwhile, the chief minister alleged that even
though the clearance for a greenfield airport at
Itanagar has been obtained, the civil aviation
ministry is delaying construction.
"I dont know why the NCP, which is a coalition
partner of the UPA government is taking a
step-motherly attitude towards the Congress-ruled Arunachal," he said.
The state govt has proposed airdropping of PDS
items, especially in border areas to mitigate the
hardships of the people, Khandu said adding that
eight unused advanced landing grounds in
different parts of the state have been handed
over to the Defence Ministry for their revival.

(More) Successful Strategies for Studio Singers
Getting good-sounding vocal tracks in the studio requires that engineers have a fair amount of technical expertise — as well as a lot of patience. Here are some time-tested strategies for getting the job done right.
Over the years I've become familiar with the infamous studio stories involving celebrated prima-donnas like Barbra Streisand et al, who spent many a session brutalizing hapless engineers with between-take tantrums ("too loud," "too soft," "can't read the lyrics," "can't stand these headphones," etc.). Though she's no Streisand (and thank God), working with my wife has nonetheless given me a little taste of what it must have been like for those control-room craftsmen, who, in addition to knowing exactly how to make the artiste in question sound great on tape, had to arrive at work each day armed with the patience of Job. Like so many singers, in the studio my wife has what I like to think of as a "performance threshold" — that is, a limited number of attempts at cutting a complete vocal before giving way to fatigue, self-consciousness, and, at times, indignation when her husband suggests trying "just one more" over the talk-back.
And yet in spite of this, over the years, my wife's finished masters have almost always wound up sounding quite superb. While much of this is due to her innate talent as a singer, I have also picked up various recording techniques — some of them technical, some psychological — that have proven essential for cutting vocals (not to mention preserving one's marriage).
Level It
Most singers tend to emphasize certain phrases or passages during a recorded performance, and, often, that extra burst of exuberance results in unanticipated volume spikes. A basic limiter (or compressor-limiter), however, addresses these issues by controlling the peaks, giving you a much more uniform vocal sound. Lowering the device's threshold (the point at which the limiter becomes "active") while adjusting the amount of effect (i.e., the "attack/release" ratio) adds definition, while providing an "edgier" sound. When using compression, try to add the effect in small doses, lest you lose the natural dynamics of the vocal.
One of the oldest tricks in the book, double-tracking (cutting a duplicate version of the original vocal to a separate track) provides extra dimension while simultaneously covering any minor miscues during the initial pass. While double-tracking, some singers may expend too much energy trying to replicate the tone and phrasing of the original take. To avoid this, I usually mute the original track; even without hearing the first part, the vocalist will usually perform a second take that is nearly identical anyway (or at least good enough for double-tracking purposes). Though multiple vocal takes are typically "stacked" in mono, when mixing, you can sometimes achieve nice results by spreading the parts in stereo; for that matter, you could even try a third or fourth vocal overdub further down in the mix, just loud enough to add extra dimension without it being obvious to the listener.
'Print' It
Rather than always adding in vocal effects during the mix stage (i.e., "post-production"), consider "printing" reverb, delay or other effect being fed to the vocal mic during the take itself. Allowing the singer to "react" to the live effect that they're hearing in their headphones often produces a very different kind of performance than you might achieve without using any coloration. While admittedly riskier than saving the processing for later, many engineers still prefer recording with the effect, since what you're hearing during the take is what you're getting as your final sound.
Different Mics for Different Types
Generations of home engineers have at one time or another sunk to one knee at the sight of some famous artist singing their guts out in front of some big fancy Neumann microphone. Indeed, the sensitivity and multiple pickup patterns of a fine studio condenser offers the kind of warmth and presence that most of us crave when cutting vocals — and, thanks to companies like RODE, Blue, et al, decent condenser mics can now be had without incurring a lot of debt. And yet even engineers equipped with a locker-full of choice mics have at times opted for something more mild-mannered, including trusty dynamic mics like the Electro-Voice RE20 "broadcast" model, or even a basic Shure SM57. Because the latter is normally associated with stage work, the SM57 or similar hand-held mic also provides a psychological advantage, since it doesn't look like a big scary studio mic (suspended from an equally intimidating overhead boom stand).
Nor can it hurt to experiment using different mic settings and placement. When recording with a condenser, for instance, you would normally put the singer directly in front of the mic, just a few inches from the diaphragm, in order to get a full, warm sound (known as the "proximity effect"). For a more ambient, less direct sound, however, you could try pulling the microphone several feet back, adjust the height of the boom, have the singer turn slightly away from the mic, switch the pickup pattern from cardioid to omni, and so forth.
Are You Comfortable?
Having a roomful of top-notch equipment is one thing; even more important is having a comfortable environment for your singer to record in. Pianists or guitarists who are accustomed to singing and playing at the same time (like they would on stage) can feel awkward when overdubbing a lead vocal, simply because they don't know what to do with their hands! One easy way to rectify that problem is to just let them play — even if you don't actually record the instrument during the take (although it can't hurt). If you don't feel like dealing with the potential leakage issues, however, try putting the singer on a high stool (since many find it more comfortable to sit rather than stand during recording), or, at the very least, give them something to keep their hands busy — a bottle of water, some sheet music, etc.
The Faster, the Better
Above all, always try to cut the vocal parts in as few takes as possible while the singer's energy level is still fresh. Many artists like to do complete passes, one after another, then choose the best performance and patch over any imperfections afterward. Whatever your strategy, make sure you record everything — even if you don't get what you want in one pass, using a basic editing tool (such as Audacity), you'll have the option to edit together a completed vocal master using portions of the various takes later on.

Atlanta-based consumer products company Spectrum Brands Inc. on Tuesday filed for Chapter 11 reorganization, unable to make a $25.8 million interest payment on its debt.
The company said it is $4.4 billion in debt.
Spectrum said it inked agreements with noteholders that represent 70 percent of the face value of its outstanding bonds to pursue a refinancing that could cut its outstanding debt and put it in a stronger financial position for the future. A refinancing would let the company slash the amount of debt on its balance sheet by $840 million (or about 33 percent), eliminate $95 million in annual cash interest payments for at least each of the next two years and free up additional cash to reinvest in its business.
The refinancing would come through the cancellation of $1.05 billion in existing bond obligations and the issuance of new bonds in an amount equal to 20 percent of the total unpaid principal and interest on existing bonds together with shares of new common stock to be created under the plan. Existing common stock would be extinguished and no distributions will be made to holders of the current equity.
The restructuring would take four to six months, Spectrum said.
Spectrum Brands has landed commitments for $235 million in debtor-in-possession financing from some existing lenders with a participating interest from some existing noteholders.
"Our businesses have attractive growth prospects that have been encumbered by the level of debt the parent company is carrying," said Kent Hussey, CEO of Spectrum Brands, in a prepared statement. "After careful consideration, we decided that the approach announced today would be the most effective and expedient path for us to develop a more appropriate capital structure to support our long-term business objectives. We estimate that when this refinancing has been completed, the company will generate in excess of $100 million in annual free cash flow."
Spectrum ended fiscal 2008 with a net loss of $931.6 million and a loss per share of $18.29, compared with a net loss of $596.8 million and a loss per share of $11.72 in fiscal 2007.
Spectrum (Pink Sheets: SPC) makes Rayovac batteries, Tetra pet supplies, Remington shaving and grooming and personal care products, household insecticides and lawn and garden care products.

Clipper One anticipates world first
The first aviation IT company to set up in the Middle East says it expects to launch a 'world first' product at November's air show.
Clipper One Technologies LLC, believed to be the first aviation IT specialist to enter the Middle East, has established regional operations at Dubai Internet City.
The company says it has another 'first' planned for Dubai 2001, a bi-annual exhibition for the region's airline industry which runs November 4-8 this year. There, Clipper One intends to unveil what it calls a 'critical management tool' that's the culmination of years of work between Clipper One Technologies; its German partner, m2p, and a major European airline.
"This new tool will give customers real time comprehensive operational information on anything from aircraft status to crew allocations to maintenance requirements, anywhere in the world, 24 hours a day, seven days a week," said Mark Pralle, managing director, Clipper One Technologies.
The mystery product, which sounds like an ERP package for the airline industry, will be unveiled in partnership with the mystery European airline. The company says that a slimline, modular version of the product has been developed for smaller airlines.
"This scalable version, called Volus, allows the monitoring and control of an airline's fleet from flight scheduling to the current status on individual aircraft, including the allocation of air and ground crews as well as maintenance events. The system is updated every 30 seconds giving users real time information," said Pralle.
IT looks like it will be one of the major themes at Dubai 2001, which expects to attract over 500 exhibitors and at least 25,000 trade visitors. "I.T. is revolutionising the way industries operate around the world and aviation is no exception," said Clive Richardson, CEO, Fairs and Exhibitions, the exhibition organiser. "Dubai 2001 will feature cutting edge IT solutions geared towards aviation operations."

Long before the Transformers Humble Bundle came along, I'd heard of Last Stand of the Wreckers. It was described in hushed tones, as one of the best Transformers comics of all time-- and even one of the best comics of all time, full stop. And what I knew of it indicated it would appeal to me, as it is about a group of second-string robots fighting for their lives. So when I got the IDW Transformers Humble Bundle and Last Stand of the Wreckers wasn't in it, I took a gamble and purchased it-- not just in paper, but in hardback, so confident was I that I would like it.
|Mottos are tough to come up with.
from The Transformers: Last Stand of the Wreckers #2 (script by Nick Roche & James Roberts, art by Nick Roche & John Wycough)
Thankfully I was correct. Last Stand of the Wreckers takes a group of some of the worst Autobots out there and assigns them to the Wreckers, the amoral Autobot commando team with the highest mortality rate of any Autobot unit. My favorites were Pyro and Ironfist. Pyro's toy was a "redeco" of Optimus Prime's, and so the writers turn this into a point of characterization: Pyro modified himself to look more like Optimus, and spends his time making dramatic poses and trying to come up with mottos. Ironfist is a fanboy who writes up detailed accounts of Wrecker missions under the pseudonym Fistiron... only despite that, there's something darker going on with him no one knows about. (Except for Prowl, because Prowl knows everything.) Plus Verity Carlo, the young human who befriended the Autobots in Infiltration, is there too.
|And they're even harder to live up to.
from The Transformers: Last Stand of the Wreckers #4 (script by Nick Roche & James Roberts, art by Nick Roche & Andrew Griffith)
These characters are sent into a former Autobot prison that's been conquered by a depraved, rogue Decepticon. A lot of them don't make it. I don't think it's as amazing as people say (probably because I still struggle to distinguish robot characters on sight, and this volume has more than most), but it is very good. The real heroes are the people who don't think it matters, and do the right thing anyway, even if they're not always doing the right thing for the right reason. This is definitely a book about heroes.
|Real life: never as good as the book.
from The Transformers: Last Stand of the Wreckers #3 (script by Nick Roche & James Roberts, art by Nick Roche, Guido Guidi, and John Wycough & Andrew Griffith)
It's made even better by the fifty-plus pages of backmatter, which includes multiple prose short stories adding depth and nuance to the characters. These I read over a few days after finishing the main comic, and they left me wanting to reread the book all over again with these new insights in mind. These stories show that, like the best characters, even second-stringers are more than meets the eye.
Next Week: Meanwhile, in another dimension, it's the beginning of an Infestation!

In that case you have two ways, one is to develop new software for your business and other one is to upgrade your software. And we recommend you to upgrade your software because it will upgrade fast and comfortable in price.

And takes Doc Paul's advice very seriously! From Hotline:
John McCain today in Cedar Rapids, IA, said Barack Obama has done nothing to help the nation avert fiscal crisis:
"Senator Obama talks a tough game on the financial markets but the facts tell a different story. He took more money from Fannie and Freddie than any Senator but the Democratic chairman of the committee that regulates them. He put Fannie Mae's CEO who helped create this disaster in charge of finding his Vice President. Fannie's former General Counsel is a senior advisor to his campaign. Whose side do you think he is on? When I pushed legislation to reform Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, Senator Obama was silent. He didn't lift a hand to avert this crisis."
McCain and Sarah Palin also raised the specter of Obama's one-time patriotism problem by criticizing Joe Biden for saying paying taxes is patriotic.
"To the rest of America that's not patriotism. Raising taxes is about killing jobs and hurting small businesses and making things worse."
"While Senator Obama and Congressional leaders don't know what to think about the current crisis, we know what their plans are for the economy. Today Senator Obama's running mate said that raising taxes is patriotic. Raising taxes in a tough economy isn't patriotic. It's not a badge of honor. It's just dumb policy."
I for one, hope (pray) they will stay on this message from now to November. As Monica Crowley stated on FOX about a month ago, presidential politics isn't tiddly-winks; you can't play nice with your opponent and expect to win. In the case of Obama, there's a nearly an unlimited supply of far-left positions to take aim at. And there's nothing wrong with going "negative" provided you are attacking your opponent's horrid positions and deplorable track record (such as it is). If Senator McCain hasn't learned from President Bush's experiences, I'm not sure anyone can teach him. I truly believe a huge contributing factor in our current President's unjustified villification -- aside from the pure derangement of his critics on the Left -- is his own misplaced trust in the kindness of Democrats as human beings with a conscience (i.e. Ted Kennedy, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi). Time and time again he reached out, only to be demonized by fellow members of Congress and their dutiful minions in the mainstream media.
And if you don't point out your opponent's weaknesses while touting your own accomplishments and plans to solve current problems, how is the electorate supposed understand why they should vote for you instead of the other guy? People are paying attention now -- so keep it up Senator McCain!
While we're at it, could we tone down the "Wall Street is greedy" mantra just a bit? It seems to me there's plenty of blame to go around, but until today, you'd never know it judging by McCain-Palin's rhetoric. Let's not overdo the populism theme; not only is it getting old, it's starting to wreak of class warfare politics. Leave that nonsense to the hypocritical Democrats who need to promote victimhood in order to maintain their power. This is America, after all. We should be celebrating success even as we reform/punish wrongdoing for all parties involved. Capitalism is still the best system in the world, and the most effective solution to poverty; to quote a great country song, in the USA "we all have a chance, everybody gets to dance." That'll continue to be true as long as our leaders understand that limited government is the best form of government. And all any of us can ask for is a chance to succeed in freedom. It's a winning formula. Just look at Sarah Palin.

Want to make a crunk beat, but can't find the inspiration, sounds, kits, or plugins, and all you have is the basic starting FL Studio 8 stuff? Or you just want to make a crunk beat, but don't know HOW? Look no further, this article will be far more helpful than any YouTube video. Especially if you want the melody of your song to be a crunk whistle!
1Open Fl Studio and start a new project.
2Go up to channels->add one->3x Osc
3Open the information for the file, and turn the knobs, so they look like the knobs in the picture.
4Open the piano roll and place the notes as such in the next picture.
5Put in the Vintage Bass Drum and Vintage Snare Drum, and place notes as following.
6Put in the Vintage Closed HiHat, and put it into piano roll, and place notes as following.
7Open a new pattern (as you should have done between the whistle and the drums, but if not, it shouldn't be that big of a deal) and open the snare drum into the piano roll, and place the notes as following, and adjust the velocity as is in the picture (or close to it, doesn't need to be exact).
8Open the playlist editor, and I suggest putting the patterns together as the following picture suggests, but however you find fit works also.Advertisement
Community Q&A
QuestionHow do I do make beats in FL Studio 8?Community AnswerIt's pretty much the same -- just click Add, then Channel, then 3xOsc, and then UI.
QuestionI have the demo version and I want to save my beat. What can I do?Community AnswerYou should save your demo version on a flash drive. If your beat is on it, it will be saved to the flash drive as well.
- If you have the demo version of FL Studio, don't buy it! The only downside to the demo is that you can't save to work on later, but you CAN EXPORT!Thanks!
- If you want to add extra FX, go back to vintage, put in VT_CY, and place it in a new pattern as you hear fit, then put in into the pattern as you want to.Thanks!
- The non-demo of FL Studio is a scam, you don't need to pay $200.00, and you shouldn't, because the saving feature is almost completely useless. Unless you plan on making a beat you want to work on or use in the future.Thanks!

1 April 2018, Anno Domini
YGod, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring? (Psalm 22:1) I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee. (Psalm 22:22)
On Palm Sunday how our Lord came to Jerusalem by way of the Mount of Olives (His favored place of prayer) which borders the Kidron Valley on the east of the city. He was hailed by the multitudes of Jerusalem with loud Hosannas and much fanfare. It is worth noting that five days later, those same multitudes were calling for His crucifixion – a testimony to the fickle nature of men without Christ.
Psalm 22 is a Messianic Psalm which describes the suffering of Christ on the cross. As you can see, it even begins with the very words of Christ on the cross at His final hour given in Matthew 27:46, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me." But look at the change in tone of this great Psalm at verse 22! Now, He has finished His atoning sacrifice and will "declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee." And He is in the midst of all today who are gathered together in His name.
Jesus did not take up the burden of His cross on the Via Dolorosa – He undertook that cross from the moment of His coming. It was a long walk He trod. He was rejected and ridiculed, scorned and persecuted; yet, His feet never turned from His advance to that dreadful hill outside the gates of the city called Calvary and Golgotha.
We, too, are commanded to take up our cross daily and follow Him (Luke 9:23)– not just at life's end, but every step of the walk of the faithful. We die, as did Paul, daily to self. We follow in the tracks of our Lord not only along the blue shores of scenic Galilee, but also through the hateful corridors of Jewish rulers and religious bigots. And, yes, we must bear our cross to Golgotha as well.
Gloriously pointed out in the 22nd Psalm beginning at verse 22 is the fact our following will result in a glad morning of praise and joy after we have, like Christ, emerged from our borrowed tombs.
Our cross may not reward us with power, pelf, and prestige as the world values those attributes. We, too, will be rejected and persecuted, scorned and alienated, if we are true to our conviction in Christ. But joy shall come at the knell of victory from the heights of Mt. Moriah at the end of our pilgrimage.
As Children of the Most High King, we shall walk, talk, and live in the power and victory of our Lord.
Jerry L. Ogles

2016 Isn't Over Yet for Medicare – Last Minute Tips for MU and PQRS Reporting
Avoid reductions of up to 9% on your 2018 Medicare payments by following these critical steps to complete 2016 reporting for PQRS and Meaningful Use.
Important Deadlines
|Program-Reporting Approach
|Submission Deadline
|PQRS via Claims
|CMS must receive claims by 2/28/17
|PQRS via Registry/QCDR
|Each has its own deadline, most between 1/15 and 3/15. Registries/QCDRs must submit to CMS by 3/31/17
|PQRS via EHR
|Upload your QRDA electronic file at https://portal.cms.gov by 2/28/17 to report quality measures for both the PQRS and MU programs. You must have an EIDM login which can take 2-3 weeks.
|MU Attestation
|Complete your attestation at https://ehrincentives.cms.gov by 2/28/17
PQRS Tips
(Possible penalty 2% from PQRS plus 2-4% from Value Based Modifiers)
- PQRS applies to all providers who bill Medicare under their own NPI, including Mid-Levels and PTs, OTs, Clinical Social Workers. No exclusions based on specialty or small volumes.
- If you see Medicare patients at two different practices (Tax IDs), you are required to report PQRS for each practice separately.
- Remember that the performance rate on the quality measures you report to PQRS will be used in the VBM program and compared to national averages. Some will be publicly available on the Physician Compare website. Choose measures that have the highest performance rate.
- If you registered to report as a group (GPRO) but find that you can't report as expected, you are allowed to use a different mechanism or report as individual providers. However, if you didn't register before 7/1/16 you can't now choose to report as a group and must report as individual providers.
- Haven't started yet? Check out the Measure Group option that allows you to report on a sample of 20 patients.
- You can report fewer than 9 measures and still be successful using the MAV process.
Meaningful Use Tips
(Possible penalty 3%)
- Late year rule change allows for a 2016 reporting period of 90 consecutive days or longer. Make use of volume-based exclusions for many measures by reducing your reporting period to 90 days.
- Review your registration information for accuracy, especially the listed email. Audit notices will be sent to the email listed.
- For Measure 10 (Public Health Registries) you are required to report to 2 registries selected from an Immunization Registry, a Syndromic Surveillance Registry, and 1 or 2 Specialty Registries. If you meet an exclusion for one of these 3 options, you will need to report to the remaining option or meet an exclusion for all 3 types of registries. Early in the attestation process you'll be asked to select which type of registry you will report on. If you plan to use an exclusion to cover any portion of this measure, you'll need to select Immunization & Syndromic Surveillance & Specialty Registry (1) – 3 checkmarks. As you complete the attestation, when you reach measure 10, you will mark an exclusion or 'yes' to reporting for 10A (Immunization Registry), mark an exclusion or 'yes' to reporting for 10B (Syndromic Surveillance) and mark an exclusion or 'yes' to reporting for 10C (Specialty Registry 1).
- After attesting to each of the MU measures, you will be asked whether you plan to report Clinical Quality Measures electronically or manually enter data as part of this attestation. If you plan to report electronically, your QRDA file must be uploaded at https://portal.cms.gov by 2/28/17.
- Did you change EMRs in 2016? Significantly affected by Hurricane Matthew? If you can't meet the MU requirements you may qualify for a Hardship Exemption. Requests for Hardship Exemptions are reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Watch cms.gov/ehrincentiveprograms for application details (likely deadline 6/30/2017).

What we offer
Paediatric ophthalmology is a challenging field. With a 'not-so-cooperative' patient and anxious parents, the challenge gets further amplified. We, at Eyeris Eye Care, take this field as we should, by the horns. We have keen interest in Paediatric Ophthalmology. Apart from the conditions listed above, other conditions like Retinopathy of Prematurity, Uveitis, Retinal detachment, Pathological myopia, Vitreous haemorrhage, Retinoblastoma etc are also seen in paediatric population. Early attention to the day to day activity by the parents coupled with detailed ophthalmic examination will help rule out these conditions in your child.
Visit us with your tiny tot for more information.
Vision and Refraction
The ophthalmic evaluation for children is a time consuming task. The first visit of your child to our clinic will primarily be aimed at building a comfortable relation with the child. The cooperation of the child for the entire process is very important in order to reach an accurate diagnosis and treatment.
Routinely, for children aged less than 10 years, we undertake 'cycloplegic' refraction in order to arrive at the correct spectacle prescription rather than depending on the equipments. This is due the high accommodative effort of the child which can give rise to erroneous readings with the automated equipment. After the readings are taken, you will be asked to come back on a later date when the actual prescription process will be undertaken based on the readings obtained on the first visit.
Maintaining a good general health of the child with regular use of glasses are generally good enough for a lifetime of good vision.
Squint a.k.a. 'Strabismus'
Squint or Strabismus refers to a condition in people where the eyes are not aligned to each other. Squint generally starts in childhood and progresses into adult life. The correction of squint is essential at the earliest possibility for maximum recovery of binocular vision and stereopsis.
Squint in children can be caused by various reasons. Unequal vision, absent vision, cataract, retinal conditions are few of them. In some cases, it can be purely genetic with normally functioning eyes. So, isolating and treating the underlying condition is of paramount importance so that the squint does not recur after management.
Squint management has various options. These options depends on the type and severity of the squint. Some cases of squint can be managed with glasses and exercises, while some cases might require surgical correction. In cases where the vision of the eye is also affected, the patient may require additional interventions.
We offer all forms of squint management plans at our centre.
Paediatric Cataract and Other Eye diseases
Eye diseases in Paediatric population is very different from adult population. Firstly, their diagnosis is a challenge in itself. Further, the management requires active participation of the caring family for optimum recovery. More time we wait, lower is the visual recovery due to a condition called Amblyopia.
Paediatric cataracts are generally diagnosed in the infancy stage by the parent itself due to its white appearance. The management of this condition is surgical and surgical only. The surgery should be done as early as possible.
Amblyopia in itself is a condition which warrants treatment. Amblyopia is also known as 'Lazy eye'. The general treatment parameters remain irrespective of the cause and done after correcting the underlying cause. It is a slow recovering condition and age is a critical factor. After an age of 15 years, patients of Amblyopia rarely shows any recovery.
We undertake all forms of paediatric ophthalmic evaluation.
The role of Parents and Teachers
As the Best Sainikpuri Ophthalmologist, we are constrained at our practice location. We do not observe the day to day activities of our patient. We rely on the history provided by the patients. However, there isn't much we can ask a child. There comes the role of teachers and parents. They are the most reliable sources of disease history for a child. They are also the cornerstone for adherence to the treatment.
We always involve the parents in the eye treatment of their child. This way, we are able to improve our outcomes.
We also conduct School Health screening in order to detect vision-related conditions in the children. Do you have a pediatric population you want us to screen? Do let us know we are the best Sainikpuri Ophthalmologist.
School Health Program
We conduct screening of school children from time to time to detect any vision-related problems. We also undertake teacher-training capsules to empower detection of eye-related problems in the students. Interested? Contact us today or visit our Sainikpuri eye hospital.
