This clue would have made no sense five years ago in 2023, it’s mordant humor. ![]() “Whistle-blower deviously cares to implicate copper” consists of an anagram - for “deviously cares,” rearrange the letters c-a-r-e-s - that wraps around (“implicates”) the chemical symbol for “copper.” The entry is a synonym for “ Whistle-blower.”ġ9A. Start with an abbreviated rank, then add a little word for “at home” and insert “no.”ġ7A. I solved this backward: “Police officer at home, possessing no photo ID?” solves to a “photo ID” that appears beneath a photo, as an explanation. Think of a common dietary “ intolerance” that uses the letters in “locates.”ġ5A. “Doctor locates source of intolerance” is an anagram clue that sneaked up on me, despite the appearance of “Doctor” (which is often used to indicate a rearrangement of letters). This is a straightforward container clue: “Principles about fellows in city dwellings” solves to fixtures of early New York City, to name one urban spot.ġ3A. Easy once you see it (“Ri fle erratically”), but also easy to get sidetracked by “erratically,” which is often an indication of an anagram.ġ2A. Find a word for “ Move sinuously” and render it “unclothed” by removing its first and last letters the answer is a useful trait for the balance beam, parallel bars and other gymnastic equipment.ġ1A.“Rifle erratically covers one who runs away” is a rare hidden word clue. This clue, “Move sinuously unclothed, as a gymnast,” is a tricky deletion. I just ran through a mental inventory of dangerous objects to solve this one, “Muck about with tangled net - gladiator’s weapon.” The answer is a combination of a “ Muck” synonym and the “tangled” letters in “net” (and an armament I had always associated with the sea).ġ0A. “Solo federal agent, an old executioner,” is a charade that places a “Star Wars” hero and Melvin Purvis side by side.ĥA. The very first entry of this puzzle is a bit dark (and was more than a bit hard for me to decipher - I was about halfway through when I solved it). ![]() I also appreciated the macabre and creepy entries that scuttled through the puzzle.ġA. Of course, it’s all worth it - each of Richard Silvestri’s challenging twists and turns is sublime and so satisfying when it finally falls into place. (There are many useful cryptic glossaries online, if you need one.) There are also very few simple entries, like anagrams and hidden words, to get crossing letters, so this was a solve that built very slowly for me. ![]() CRYPTIC CROSSWORD - At first glance, this is one of the more imposing cryptic puzzles that I’ve seen in a while! Many of its clues contain indicators that are easy to misinterpret, and the equations for solving them are inventive and convoluted.

Timer settings will let you know how long to keep your hair curled around the barrel to achieve different curl looks. We’ll tell you how many there are and what the range for them is. Some curling irons only have one setting, but others have multiple heat settings you can choose. Different materials handle frizziness differently, and we’ll go more into that in our materials guide later. Materials cover what the barrel of the curling iron is coated in. We’ve also included a flat iron on our list, which you can use to both straighten and curl your hair. For a detailed look at the pros and cons of each type, check out our full guide below. There are three main types of cordless curling irons: curling wands, clamp curlers, and automatic curlers. We’ll talk about what features to look into when you’re shopping for your cordless curling iron, give you some product recommendations, and go into greater detail later about why things like material and barrel size matter.

Anyone visit C3D lately -its a ghost town. Locked to license causes a lot of confusion and dashed hopes, and remains as the number one factor inhibiting adoption of the software and C3D user base. Even though just as elegently implemented with the applications content browser, it has not been a good experience for the users. It has been done before - with E-On Software's Vue has been doing this locked to installation content DRM since inception. The sunk cost fallacy pretty much assures that no matter how bad things get with the DRM, there's gonna be an uphill struggle to get anyone at DAZ to give up the money and effort spent on it. Sadly since they've implemented it, there's little chance of getting it removed. To me it sounds like they're planning these things and just don't want to announce them right now. Just a lot of weaseling, hiding behind 'we don't intend to' or 'we don't plan to' instead of assuring us they won't. In fact when it comes to the encryption I'm not seeing any guarantees it won't get worse. Because even if they say they don't intend to, that's no guarantee they won't. ![]() (Wish there'd been a true free item in the release so I could try an encrypted item and see how usable they are and aren't) What I worry about is when the drive to force acceptance of the DRM system gets to the point that new Studio features become usable only by encrypted content. None of which seems possible with the encrypted files. Could tweak things, and use what they learned to make their own content. One of the most useful things about the poser formats is that anyone with a text editor could look under the hood and learn how things are put together. There likely would never be a DAZ studio. Poser would have been a niche product and Daz/Zygote would likely be making content for something less restricted. The thing that gets me, if Poser had this kind of content DRM from the beginning, we wouldn't be here now. What I worry about is when the drive to force acceptance of the DRM system gets to the point that new Studio features become usable only by encrypted content. (Wish there'd been a true free item in the release so I could try an encrypted item and see how usable they are and aren't) ![]() This is great news, and looks like I don't have to abandon Daz after all. Well, I still don't like DRMs, but at least this one doesn't destroy my workflow, so I'll hold my tongue.for now :) I just got back home from work and tested 4.9, and got my "freebie" dragon queen from my yesterday's shopping spree exported and rendered just fine.

Many say their secret weapon for fine aluminum finishing is a fly cutter with a PCD (diamond) insert.ĬNC machinists realize the main reason to use a fly cutter is to achieve a very fine surface finish. The exception are those most expensive face mills where you can individually adjust the cutting height of each insert to 0.0001″, because that’s what it takes, and that’s why fly cutters can leave a better finish. Remove all but one insert from your face mill, and finish improves. While the CNC crowd will more often prefer face mills, even many CNC machinists realize that a very fine surface finish may be better done by fly cutting. I get asked about Fly Cutters and Fly Cutting a lot, there is a lot of traffic to CNCCookbook on those keywords, and Fly Cutters are very commonly used by manual machinists. They’re ideal for smaller machines that don’t have the spindle power needed for Large Face Mills.Much cheaper to buy one insert than many. They’re inexpensive relative to Face Mills.They produce a very fine surface finish–better than most Face Mills.There are 3 big reasons fly cutters are used: While they can be used on several kinds of machine tool, they are most commonly used on milling machines.įly Cutters are a type of Face Mill that only uses 1 cutting edge using either a hand ground HSS tool or one insert.

Realistically, you can make any potion you want based on the herbs you have available. I don’t know if this will change before release, but right now it’s a breeze to level Alchemy. For some reason, the Crazy Alchie pot stays orange all the way up to 415 and it’s still yellow until 425. It’s possible to be even more boring and power all the way from 375-420 with 5 stacks of Goldclover and the Crazy Alchemist’s Potion recipe. I was able to hit 420 Alchemy with 4 stacks of Goldclover, 1/2 a stack of Tiger Lily, 1/2 a stack of Adder’s Tongue and 12 Pygmy Suckerfish. I believe it also has the lowest requirement for materials. I’m sure this isn’t shocking since that was also true in Burning Crusade. So far, Alchemy has been the easiest craft to level. My guild leader, who is in the Beta with me, has been kind enough to make his Alchemist available for testing purposes :) “But Kaliope,” you say, “didn’t you have to leave your Alchemist out of Beta?”. The main reason Herbalism got any attention at this stage was because I wanted to collect some mats to test out Alchemy. It uses the primary items Blizzard provided in TBC content and doesn’t waste any other gear slots.My last post focused on Herbalism, so it’s only natural that I should follow up with Alchemy. While not at cap, this should be sufficient for many raid teams.

As a result, the Transit Services Bureau expanded again.Īfter the Metro Board of Directors approved an audit of the entire LASD policing structure, it was determined that to be an even more effective, additional staffing and management was necessary, ultimately recommending TSB expand into a complete division. In 2002, the Metro Board discussed the possibility of contracting with one law enforcement agency and in 2003 the Metro Board awarded the entire policing contact to LASD. Things stayed that way, with LAPD policing Metro buses and trains within the city of Los Angeles and LASD policing the rest of the County.Īs Metro grew by adding the Green Line rail service and numerous bus lines, our policing responsibilities also grew. In an agreement with the Los Angeles Police and Sheriff’s Departments, 60 percent of the transit officers would assimilated by the LAPD and the other 40 percent to the LASD, resulting in the reestablishment of TSB that same year. In 1997, the Metro Board of Directors opted to disband their Police Department, instead opting to contract with LASD and LAPD. This saw the MTAPD grow into a transit police department with over 300 personnel. During the merger, RTDPD became known as the Metropolitan Transit Authority Police Department (MTAPD) and TSB was temporarily disbanded. The Los Angeles County Transportation Commission and RTD merged in 1993 and formed Metropolitan Transportation Authority, better known as Metro. Sheriff Sherman Block ordered the creation of the Transit Services Bureau (TSB) that same year. These 20 miles of light rail was first patrolled by the Sheriff’s Department, as the Transit Commission wanted a more dedicated police force. The Blue Line, as it would be known, began operation in 1990 and connected downtown Los Angeles to Long Beach. The Los Angeles County Transportation Commission built the first modern light rail system in Los Angeles County. They faced challenges right from the start however, the safety of transit patrons was always their top priority. RTDPD employed over 100 officers and support staff. So much that in 1978 the RTD Police Department (RTDPD) was formed. Keeping riders safe was an ever-growing concern of the agency. RTD was known as a young and ambitious group of transit operators with burgeoning crime problems. The Southern California Rapid Transit District (RTD) was the entity formed in 1964 to bring together all of the smaller, local bus companies operating at the time. Subsequent changes in the law or regulations, judicial decisions, Tax Appeals Tribunal decisions, or changes in Department policies could affect the validity of the information presented in a TSB-M.Although the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD) has had a long history of providing contract policing to communities within the County, specialized transit law enforcement wasn’t always our responsibility. ![]() Metropolitan transportation mobility taxĪ TSB-M is an informational statement of changes to the law, regulations, or Department policies. 1/12/2024 0 Comments Zipx 7 zip![]() We have identified four ZIPX openers that are compatible with this specific type of ZIPX file.

Zipx format features average speed: using PPMd or LZMA compression algorithms rather than Deflate, speed is comparable with WinRar RAR or 7-Zips 7Z rather. It introduces four new compression algorithms (ways of reducing file sizes) to the ZIP file format, which is why WinZip owner Corel Inc., after pressure from users and competitors, decided to name the files ZIPX instead of ZIP. 7z is an archive format which was introduced 1999 with the 7-Zip open source file archiver. To truly understand what the 7z file format is, you could compare it in many ways to a ZIP file. It’s similar to a ZIP file but uses a different lossless compression method called LZMA to reduce file size while preserving quality. There is 2 speed optimization in 7-Zip benchmark's decompression. The 7z file extension is a compressed archive format created with 7-zip open-source software. 2 7-Zip has its own archive format called 7z, but can read and write several others. It is developed by Igor Pavlov and was first released in 1999. The existing code of x86/圆4 AES-NI was improved also. 7-Zip is a free and open-source file archiver, a utility used to place groups of files within compressed containers known as 'archives'. On the panel on the right side of the screen, click ' Unzip to: ' and choose the location you would like to save your file to, for instance the desktop or an external hard drive. 7-Zip archives are similar to RAR files, but are using different. This will open up WinZip and display the file. A 7z file extension is used for compressed archives created with the 7-Zip archive utility. The ZIPX format was introduced with WinZip version 12.1. The speed of zip AES encryption and 7z/zip/rar AES decryption was increased with the following improvements: - 7-Zip now can use new x86/圆4 VAES (AVX Vector AES) instructions, supported by Intel Ice Lake CPU. 7z file you would like to open on your computer and double-click on the file.
