In humans, chronic stress results in long-term stimulation of the fight-or-flight response, which leads to constant production and secretion of catecholamines (e.g., epinephrine) and hormones such as cortisol. Salivary glands work through small volume potassium and water secretion.Kidney increases renin secretion to increase intravascular volume.Urinary bladder, there is relaxation of the detrusor muscle and contraction of the urethral sphincter to help stop urine output during sympathetic activation. ![]() Exocrine and endocrine pancreas decreases both enzyme and insulin secretion.Stomach and intestines, decreased motility and sphincter contraction, as well as contraction of the gallbladder, occur to slow down digestion to divert energy to other parts of the body.Lungs, bronchodilation and decreased pulmonary secretions occur to allow more airflow through the lungs. ![]()

![]() Concerns about the fire threatening Highway 395 arose and crews began working to prevent the fires expansion towards the highway. ![]() Heavy smoke, thunderstorms, wind and lightning caused the fire to expand northeast towards the state line of California and Nevada. Two more structures were destroyed that day. īy the evening of Monday, July 19, the Tamarack Fire was reported to be 39,045 acres (15,801 ha) in size. Dramatic fire activity sent a pyrocumulonimbus into the sky, which created its own weather, resulting in lightning strikes. That day, crews began building fine lines around Markleeville, portions of Highway 89, and other threatened, evacuated areas. On the following day, July 18, the Pacific Crest Trail was closed in the area. Two more structures were destroyed and additional evacuations and voluntary evacuations were put in place. The Tamarack Fire grew to 21,000 acres (8,498 ha) by the evening of July 17 and threatened the Highway 89 corridor. This resulted in an evacuation center in Alpine Village being relocated to Gardnerville, Nevada. The fire jumped the east fork of the Carson River, resulting in the evacuation of Alpine Village and Woodfords. Ash was reported to be falling in the Carson Valley that day. Īs the fire burned overnight into July 17, three structures were destroyed. Highway 89 over Monitor Pass in Mono County was closed. The Washoe Tribe of Nevada and California community of Hung A Lei Ti was also evacuated. By 9 PM, mandatory evacuations were put in place for Grover Hot Springs State Park, Shay Creek, Markleeville Village, and East Fork Resort. Alpine County Sheriff's Office announced by 7:55 PM that Markleeville was under mandatory evacuation. The Forest Service reported that the fire was growing rapidly, fueled by dry grass, timber, chaparral and low relative humidity. The Forest Service requested that crews hike to the fire and aircraft be brought in to support. The fire was reported to be 100 acres (40 ha). ![]() However, on July 16, gusty winds pushed the fire down slope. The earliest acreage evaluation the fire, provided during the week of July 5, was 37 acres (15 ha). The United States Forest Service fire crews struggled to access the rugged area, resulting in the Forest Service making the “tactical management decision not to insert fire crews to fight the fire due to safety concerns.” The fire was allowed to burn naturally assuming the sparse fuels and natural barriers in the fire area would limit the fire's growth. The fire was underway earlier in the morning, so it was thought to have started during lightning the night before. The CalFire incident shows a start of 11:57 a.m. The fire was started by a lightning strike with the incident origin listed as 4:00 p.m. The Tamarack Fire was first reported July 4 on a rocky ridgetop in the Mokelumne Wilderness, approximately seven miles southwest of Markleeville in Alpine County, California. At least twenty structures were damaged or destroyed. In total, 2,439 people were evacuated and over 500 structures were threatened by the Tamarack Fire. The fire continued to grow, threatening numerous communities, including Markleeville and highways in the area, including State Highway 89, 88 and 395. High winds and dry fuels and conditions caused the fire the grow rapidly to 21,000 acres (8,498 ha) by July 17. However, on July 16, high winds caused the fire to move down the ridge. The fire was allowed to burn naturally due to concerns for fire crew safety in the rugged area and the lack of fuels and the natural barriers on the ridgetop that limited the fire's growth. The fire was first reported burning on a rocky ridgetop on July 4, 2021, a result of a lightning strike. The Tamarack Fire was a wildfire that burned 68,637 acres (27,776 ha), primarily in the Mokelumne Wilderness in Alpine County, California, Douglas County, Nevada and Lyon County, Nevada, as part of the 2021 California wildfire season. ![]() The engine concentrates real-time processing of AF (autofocus), image recognition and image quality adjustment to minimize processing latency for greatly increased movie and still processing power.

Click that, then select the three square images you just made from your original panoramic, making sure the leftmost side is first, then the middle, then the rightmost side. Hit the upload button (bottom-middle), then look for the icon that looks like three stacks of paper on top of one another. When you’ve made all three of your 1×1 images, send them to your smartphone by emailing them to yourself or perhaps by using AirDrop, if you’re using Apple devices. Save it with a filename like “pano1.jpg.” Then go back and repeat the process for the middle and rightmost section of your panoramic, naming them pano2.jpg and pano3.jpg. Select it, copy it, and open it as a new image. This time, set the crop ratio for 1×1, and pick the leftmost section of your image. If you only want two, set it for 2×1, or 4×1 for four, and so on).Īfter you’ve cropped your original photo into a 3×1 image, you’ll want to open the crop tool once more. (Assuming you want three different segments for your Instagram upload. Next, open up your program’s crop tool, and set your crop ratio for 3×1. ![]() I use Lightroom and Lightroom Mobile, but pretty much any editing software should be able to get the job done. Then, open that photo in your image editing software of choice. ![]() Now you’ve successfully changed the resolution of the video. Here change set “Scale full frame with crop”. Next go to “Image Scaling” and Input Scaling. I changed mine from 1920 to 2560 since I want 21:9 ratio as mentioned above. Now change those numbers to whatever screen you want to fit. Now in “Master Settings”, change Timeline Resolution to “Custom”. Go to “File>Project setting”, shortcut: Shift+9 On a 21:9 monitor those numbers are normally 2560:1080. Let’s say you want to play your video on a 21:9 monitor, then if the video is 1920:1080 you need to increase the aspect ratio. Or maybe the screen is higher than normal and you don’t want black bars on top and bottom. If you want to play your video to fit a wider screen without getting those black bars on the sides since it’s not wide enough. It will “not” change your video.įor example: Your video is in 1920:1080 also known as 16:9. This will change the resolution on the timeline or your whole project. It will open in a new tab, so don’t worry about losing this article. Just scroll down the page and check if you find it interesting. To learn about this, here is an article I’ve written, that shows different ways to do this. You can do really cool things with letterboxing, and even make your video format fit the screen in the cinemas or just wide monitors. ![]() This is really easy, just go to “Timeline>Output Blanking” and choose whatever aspect ratio you would like.Įvery number lower than 1.77 will crop from the sides and every higher number wil crop from top and bottom. You can of course also add vertical black bars bars also known as pillarboxing. This method is if you want to letterbox or add those black bars to get that cinematic look which you get by cropping the top or bottom. Cropping by Changing “Aspect Ratio” (Fake Letterbox) ![]() If you want to undo whatever happend just hit that “arrow circle” on the right-side. This result in squeezing and destroying the footage. Then if you change one of the axes, you are literally just changing one of the axes. So by clicking on the sign it will change color from white to gray which means they are now unlinked. Whenever you change the X-axis you’ll also change the Y-axis. You can also see I’ve made a white circle around that chain/link sign. Here you just hover your mouse over the boxes I’ve circled and drag to the sides to zoom in or out. Once again select the clip in the timeline you want to zoom and head over to the inspector. How do you do it? It’s about the same process as the cropping in method 1. Click here to read, it will open in a new tab so don’t worry about losing one. If you want to know more about letterboxing (black bars) and aspect ratio, I’ve written an own article on that topic, which I really recommend you read if you want to understand this concept fully. The great part of cropping this way is that you don’t get the black bars on a normal 16:9 ratio screen. What you do here is simply zooming in on what you want to keep and the parts getting outside the viewer are cropped. This is also a way to crop your video, by zooming you will crop it from all sides or only 2 depending on how you are positioning the frame. Zoom to Crop (Crop Without Changing the Aspect Ratio) Now you have the option to crop it from whatever side you would like! Just drag for example “Crop Right” and you’ll create a black bar which will cover part of the video. Now once you have the inspector open you can scroll down to where it stands “Cropping”. To expand this menu click on the arrow in the white circle. Then you head to the inspector (right side) if it did not open click on “Inspector” which I’ve made a red circle around in the picture below. What you want to do is select the clip you want to crop in the timeline. This is what most people refer to as cropping so let’s start with how to do this one. Let’s start with the most basic crop and end with the most advanced.Įvery method described in this article will be done from the Edit page. Therefore I’ll try to cover most of them in this article. ![]() There isn’t only one answer to this question either as there are many variants of “cropping”. I’ve noticed that there are a lot of questions on DaVinci Resolve crop video or how to do it.

"IMHO, a Strider is like a "fantasy" knife, they don't cut well, you can't beat the hell out of them, and if you really want to mess someone up, a $3 "made in China" machete will work just fine. Of the percentage of people who buy Stiders who actually use them, how many use them in a tactical situation? As for their folders, a Sebenza is a better knife -and is a lot cheaper.īasically, I guess if you've got the dough, it's nice to add something "different" to your collection, but in terms of real world applications, there are a lot of better choices out there at a better price. IMHO, a Strider is like a "fantasy" knife, they don't cut well, you can't beat the hell out of them, and if you really want to mess someone up, a $3 "made in China" machete will work just fine. Not from a thieving car jacker who lies and overcharges for a piece of steel that has a low grade finish with a cord wrap -that in itself is daylight robbery. I like to buy from guys who have integrity, many years of experience, can produce a superior product and justify the cost. Personally, I'd rather spend my money on a Busse Combat knife or a Dozier. You price high, you create the "illusion" of a superior product. Just a user/ abuser who is happy with his Strider purchase. Like I said, no expert, visionary, or God. I have also, unfortuanetely, been involved in a knife on knife incident before and was lucky enough to walk away with a better understanding of what actually works and does not (for ME) in this context. I do work hard and "play" hard as well, and my tools are often victim to that. I don't plan on going to war or working assasinations. I'm not an "operative" or a martial art student. Though these same people consistently ask for my knife to do something they will not admit not trusting their own steel to do, and I'm happy with that. I wear the MFS in a horizontal kydex on the back of my belt and am very happy with how the sheath and carry placement have worked out so far.Ī couple of people have laughed at the tiger-striping, or called the wrap handle uncomfortable. It might seem trivial, but the knife was to be used and carried right out of the box and I needed a suitable carry system post-haste. I have an interest in small Busse knifes as well, but the fact of the matter, as applied to my case, was that spending 230.00$ on a good small fixed knife with a functional sheath I feel more comfortable about then spending as much and having to hunt down an after-market sheath. Basically beat the knife with no reservations, and despite some appearance issues, the knife is still as solid as the day I bought it. I have cut two inch bridle leather with it numerous times. The knife has been used to clean small game, dig rocks out of tent sites, baton kindling, pry aluminum sheeting off a backyard shed. I have owned an MFS for two months now, and can say I do not regret the purchase at all. However, I do have functions best performed by a fixed blade and decided to invest in a good quality fixed knife about two months ago for general woods-craft, SD knife if I was ever that desperate (again), and something that could, in whatever unfortunate circumstance, be used as a pry-aid. Lanyard hole.I guess impractical depends on definition. The over-sized pivot adds to the robustness of this knife. The titanium pocket clip (tip up) is removable and also has the "Heat Striping" finish. GEN 2 MARSOC frame lock features lockbar stabilizer with jimping. The top handle is texturd ranger green G-10. The bottom is a solid titanium frame lock design with "Heat Striping" finish. The top of the knife features thumb ramp notching where the frame meets the blade spine for extra grip. Includes dual heat treated stainless steel thumb studs and oval thumb hole opener. ![]() The front is marked "STRIDER" and the back has the logo and "RW-1". The CPM S30V tanto profile blade is flat ground and is razor sharp with tiger stripe finish. Built in colaboration with Commander Richard Marcinko, know as the "Rogue Warrior".

Challenger 3500 īombardier unveiled the Challenger 3500 at an event in Montreal on Septemwhich builds on the Challenger 300/350. ![]() It is able to carry eight passengers over a 3,200 nmi / 5,926 km range at a Mach 0.80 (459 kn, 849 km/h) long-range cruise. The avionics include four Adaptive LCD Displays, Dual FMS with LPV and RNP approaches capability, SVS, a MultiScan, Weather Radar, Dual IRS, dual SBAS GPS, integrated EFIS and dual VHF and HF radios. īombardier maintenance program runs $277 per hour and inspection intervals are at 600 hr. Ĭanted winglets have a less acute angle that reduces transonic drag and enlarge the span by 5.2 ft (1.6 m), increasing wing area and aspect ratio.Īt a weight of 30,200 lb (13,700 kg) it cruises at Mach 0.80 / 455 kn (843 km/h) TAS and is advertised as burning 1,535 lb (696 kg) per hour. Hot-section modifications and a FADEC push gave the Honeywell HTF7350 7.3% more takeoff thrust at 7,323 lbf (32.57 kN) with the same flat rating, durability and reliability.Ī strengthened wing with canted winglets and more span allows for 900 lb (410 kg) more full fuel payload. In 2018, 60 Challenger 350s were delivered as Bombardier claims a 58% market share of the super mid-size segment, and the 300th delivery was reached in July 2019, after five years of service. It received its type certification from Transport Canada on June 11, 2014, from the FAA on June 25 and from the EASA on September 2. Its launch customer, NetJets, ordered 75 firm and 125 options. Combined with a more luxurious interior and 20% taller cabin windows, it costs $1 million more at $25.9 million. The improved variant first flew on March 2, 2013, was unveiled at the next May EBACE and was due to enter service in May 2014. The 350's main external difference is its canted winglets The Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 avionics include four LCD displays, an EICAS and Maintenance Diagnostics Computer, an EGPWS, a TCAS II and an ELT. Outboard ailerons are manually actuated, elevators and rudder are hydraulic with a mechanical backup, fly-by-wire spoilers augment roll control, act as speedbrakes and dump lift on the ground, hydraulic single-slotted fowler flap have four positions: 0/10/20/30°. ![]() The fuselage and the wing are semi-monocoque aluminum structures, the winglets are composite. In 2004, the unit cost of the Challenger 300 was US$17.4 million. Its supercritical wings have a fixed leading-edge and a 27% sweep angle, its 1.15 m (3.8 ft) winglets reduce cruise lift-induced drag by 17%. The new design is not developed from the Challenger 600 or its variants. Assembled in Wichita, Kansas, it entered commercial service on 8 January 2004 with Flexjet. An all-new design, it received Transport Canada type approval on, followed on 4 June by US FAR 25 certification and on 31 July by European JAR 25 approval. The baseline Challenger 300 was launched at the 1999 Paris Air Show as the Bombardier Continental. ![]() Through this way, development works such as coding and debugging would be easier. Program modularization is the process of decomposing a program into smaller manageable group of codes with specific objectives. ** Example 'RPTEX1S': REPEAT (structured mode) ************************************************************************ DEFINE DATA LOCAL 1 EMPLOY-VIEW VIEW OF EMPLOYEES 2 PERSONNEL-ID 2 NAME * 1 #PERS-NR (A8) END-DEFINE * REPEAT INPUT 'ENTER A PERSONNEL NUMBER:' #PERS-NR IF #PERS-NR = ' ' ESCAPE BOTTOM END-IF /* FIND EMPLOY-VIEW WITH PERSONNEL-ID = #PERS-NR IF NO RECORD FOUND REINPUT 'NO RECORD FOUND' END-NOREC DISPLAY NOTITLE NAME END-FIND END-REPEAT * END (2) Program Modularization The search task will be repeated until the computer user decides to terminate it i.e. Here, the computer user is requested to enter an employee number for the computer so that it can initiate a database search task. ![]() The following example (refer Nat914win repeat) demonstrates the use of loop structure to repeat certain computer processing tasks. eliminating unnecessary statement redundancies. Repetition structure helps to optimize the arrangement of instruction statements i.e. FIND EMPLOY-VIEW WITH CITY = 'FRANKFURT' SORTED BY NAME BIRTH IF SALARY (1) LT 40000 WRITE NOTITLE '*****' NAME 30X 'SALARY LT 40000' ELSE IF BIRTH GT #BIRTH FIND VEHIC-VIEW WITH PERSONNEL-ID = PERSONNEL-ID (FND.) DISPLAY (IS=ON) NAME BIRTH (EM=YYYY-MM-DD) SALARY (1) MAKE (AL=8) END-FIND END-IF END-IF END-FIND ENDĪ Loop Control Structure is used to repeat the execution of certain instruction statements. This program applies a Nested IF-ELSE structure to support its complex query condition branches. In this example, the program is instructed to find employees who are located in the city ‘FRANKFURT’ and, if their salaries are greater than 40,000 and their birth dates are after 1st January 1945, print their name, their birth date, their salary and their vehicle’s make. The following example (refer Nat914win if) demonstrates the use of the Selection Control Structure. the instruction statements are arranged by one after another. Most programs by default start with the Sequential Control Structure i.e. ![]() (refer here to get Natural NSD format files for the above items). (3) Adabas DDM for EMPLOYEES and VEHICLES database files. (refer here to read the setup guide for the above items). PRE-REQUISITE: (1) ADABAS and NATURAL Server Community Edition (Docker Version). The code examples are taken from the Nat914win official documentation (refer Nat914win fs-about). This post describes the application of Structured Programming approach in building mainframe database programs using ADABAS database and NATURAL programming language. Moreover, program codes are decomposed into small manageable chunks aka modularization. This involves the use of Program Control Structures such as Sequential, Selection and Loop. We have to find a sorted list of all the integers in the range inclusive that have sequential digits.Structured Programming approach is a technique to improve program codes reliability and clarity (refer Hunt 1979). ![]() Suppose we have an integer, that has sequential digits if and only if each digit in the number is one more than the previous digit. ![]() You’ll have to explore each region thoroughly to find the fragments as they’re often hidden toward the end of each biome. The map layouts are random, so we can’t tell you exactly where to find each of the fragments, but there is one hidden in each of the six biomes. There are six Sunface Fragments in total – one for each biome. In Act 3 of Returnal, you can find new items called Sunface Fragments in each biome. Unlock the sedan to view the true ending.View the final house sequence to obtain the Car Key.Collect all six Sunface Fragments from each of the game’s biomes.Here’s how to see the secret ending of Returnal. This portion of the game seems normal at first glance, but there are new objects scattered throughout each biome that will help you unlock the true ending of the game. ![]() Once you beat the final boss, you’ll reawaken at the Helios crash site and begin Act 3. That means conquering all six of the game’s biomes and defeating the final boss, Ophion. To get the secret ending, you need to finish the game normally first. Here’s how to get the secret true ending in Returnal. There are more cutscenes to see and more story sequences to view before you finally set the controller down for good. Once the big bad is defeated, you’ll awaken at the beginning of the cycle like normal, meaning there is still much more to see on Atropos and there are still many more secrets to uncover. That’s right, Returnal isn’t over once you beat the final boss. Returnal is a very mysterious game at its core, and there’s even a secret true ending that is only obtainable after beating the final boss that provides closure to the game’s story. |
