![]() ![]() The former will always, unquestionably align. ![]() Using different OpenGL transformations to move different vertices to the same place counts as inexact: The rasterizer will miss a few pixels and fill others twice. The errors may seem minuscule, but they invariably result in severe flickering along the cracks. This can happen if an inexact calculation is used, and vertices that should be the same end up in slightly different places. #NOSTALGIA SHADERS JAVA CRACK#Crack theoryĬracks occur in rasterizers like OpenGL when edges that should align don't match exactly. ![]() The lines that started to appear in between every block in the 1.5 snapshots and should be fixed in 1.5.1 were caused by texture coordinates overflowing their tile slightly in the rasterizer. Crack theory has been, is, and will still be applicable. Update: The cracks between 16x16x16 sections have existed for a long time, and still do. Note however that this might have performance penalties and Optifine is not supported by Mojang or this bug tracker. Optifine has some advanced settings that might fix this issue. Some users have also reported this issue to be reduced when changing the level of Mipmap under the Minecraft Video Settings (lowering to 0).
![]() These reasons show you that thanking the editor is more than a pandering gesture or another endless administrative task that keeps you from your writing. I’m part of the community of writers and editors.” Now how do you feel? I have a file of letters to editors who have published my work. Your note is really a letter to yourself. When you thank the editor, you’re thanking yourself.įor your growth as a writer, this last is the most profound. We receive not only a good feeling but a possibly more favorable reading of our next submission and certainly a greater sense of equality and mastery. And the universal law applies: when we give, in this case a thank you note, we receive in return. Instead, you can find many things to extol: the layout, the headings, when or where in the publication the piece appears, that cute cartoon near the title, the judicious editing of your 500-word bio, or, if you’re really scraping, the font style. Praise of your own words should come from the droves of readers who write in thanking the editor for publishing your piece. I do not mean how well your published piece reads. You can always find something to thank the editor for. See the sample letter at the end of this article. Some writers, building on the editor’s good judgment in the current publication, attach the next submission with the thank you letter for the first-a fine idea. ![]() And when you submit after you’re published, which should be very soon after, you can refer to your letter of gratitude. At least you’ll get to the top of the pile faster. The editor will remember your thoughtfulness and likely regard your next submission with kinder, gentler eyes. Thanking the editor is politically savvy. When we thank the editor, we neutralize all this erroneous, self-defeating, and egotistical thinking. Sometimes we think editors exist only to torment us with the dreaded “R” word. Sometimes we’re certain they have a stash of in-house writers chained in the basement, hollow-eyed and starving, feverishly grinding out everything that ever appears in the magazine. Sometimes we’re sure they’ll never publish anyone, especially a writer who slides in on the slush pile. Sometimes we feel we’d do anything to get them to publish us, even to cutting the guts out of our most labored-over beloved creation. We tend to have a love-hate relationship with editors. Thanking the editor acknowledges the partnership. Don’t editors deserve a little recognition and appreciation? 4. They toil so we can have a vehicle for our writing, boast to friends and relatives, especially our fancy-attorney big sister, and chalk up another notch on our resumes. Thanking the editor says you realize editors are people too. We writers are prone to self-pity and narcissism: we’re unappreciated geniuses, the publishing world is against us, the hacks get the breaks, etc., etc.īy thanking the editor, you’re going beyond your self-absorbed world and extending yourself outward to one of those in your writing world who matter most. You may have dumped this as a reason for anything the moment you left your parents’ house. Nevertheless, whether you get paid in dollars, copies, a six-month subscription, or an autographed picture of the editor’s twin Dobermans, it makes sense to thank the editor for several reasons: 1. Such blunders and disappointments are inevitable. When, hands shaking, you opened to your page, a printing error obscured nine-tenths of your name. Four months after the piece appeared, you received a whopping payment of two contributors’ copies, which arrived in your mailbox folded like a limp accordion. ![]() Your countless drafts and dared emailed submission on a 200-word piece have finally reaped a small magazine’s acceptance. Despite your dogged deluges of submissions, no one has published you and you secretly feel no one ever will.ī.

More than 20 countries are represented this year, including Switzerland, Australia, Brazil, Croatia, Mexico, Taiwan and Ukraine. The fiesta has grown to include a cadre of European ballooning professionals. “There were a lot of firsts that I took for granted back then but really look back and appreciate so much now.” And then the other thing was the first balloon glow at night. “I remember the first time being down in the balloons with them all standing up and inflating and not being able to see the sky because it was all colored fabric. She recalled a childhood full of experiences centered on ballooning. Wiederkehr McDonald, who went on to set her own ballooning records before becoming a commercial airline pilot, was wearing one of her father's faded ballooning jackets and held a cardboard cutout of him as the balloon she was riding in lifted off. and held numerous world records for distance and duration and built a successful advertising business with his fleet of balloons. Her father, Matt Wiederkehr, was one of the first 10 hot air balloon pilots in the U.S. She made the trip from Colorado to participate in a re-enactment of that 1972 flight on Friday. Tens of thousands of people packed the field Saturday, wide-eyed with necks craned as they tried to soak in the spectacle.ĭenise Wiederkehr McDonald was a passenger in her father's balloon during the first fiesta. One thing that helps, he said, is the phenomenon known as the Albuquerque box - when the wind blows in opposite directions at different elevations, allowing skillful pilots to bring a balloon back to near the point of takeoff.ĭennis said it took a few years of holding the fiesta to realize the predictability of the wind patterns allowed for balloons to remain close to the launch field, giving spectators quite a show. ![]() “This is my plan,” he said, with a wide smile while acknowledging that it's not always easy to fly a balloon. One of his goals will be flying over the Rio Grande and getting low enough to dip the gondola into the river. He's piloting a special-shaped balloon that was modeled after a chalet at the top of a famous Swiss bobsled run. This year will mark Roman Müller's first time flying in the fiesta. “Ballooning is infectious,” Dennis said, describing being aloft like drifting in a dream, quietly observing the countryside below. He was on the hook again, as pilots hope predictions for the rest of opening weekend are fair. The weather was perfect when he got to New Mexico, said Dennis, who flew under the alias “Captain Phairweather.” He was quoted at the time as saying he had brought good weather with him. He had to rearrange his flight plans from Michigan so he could make it to Albuquerque in time. Pilot Gene Dennis, 78, remembers the snow storm that almost caused him to miss that first fiesta. ![]() ![]() ![]() #Purple coneflower benefits free#Plant grow larger over time, but tend to spread unless reseeding, which is like getting free plants! The nice thing about the coneflowers is that unlike other perennial flowers whose flowers usually only last for two weeks, the flowers of the coneflowers last much longer. When you remove the spent flowers, no more flowers will grow until next year. Native plants are critical to the health and wellbeing of native wildlife. Answer: No, purple coneflowers are perennials so they only bloom once a year. The most important reason echinacea belongs in every garden is that it is a native plant. Propagation: Can collect seed to spread around. Everyone should grow purple coneflowers, also known as echinacea, in their flower beds or herb gardens. Japanese beetle and leaf spot are occasional problems. ![]() The roots harvested in the fall contain large. Groom/Prune: Do both: deadhead a few to extend the bloom time and leave the seed heads for the Eastern goldfinch, Spinus tristis These chemicals support ongoing immune function and are best-used long term for supporting the immune system. Purple coneflowers are also the host butterfly plant for the silvery checkerspot butterfly larvae, Chlosyne nycteis. Many butterflies also visit for nectar, including monarchs, Danaus plexippus swallowtails, Papilionidae spp., and sulphurs, Coliadinae spp. Depending on the color, coneflowers can symbolize elegance, purity, and love. Horticulturalists have cultivated several colorful varieties from natural species like the purple coneflower (Echinacea purpurea). Specialists include the sunflower leafcutter bee, Megachile pugnata, and the mining bee, Andrena helianthiformis. Coneflowers come in 7 primary colors purple, pink, orange, red, white, yellow, and green. Oh, the double flowers are very pretty, but did you know pollinators can’t access the nectar or pollen through densely packed petals, if there is any left at all? It’s always best to stick with single-flower species, and the straight species coneflower is one I never tire of.īirds and butterflies, as well as, Bumble bees, Bombus spp, sweat bees, Halictidae spp, and various sunflower bees in the genera Diadasia, Melissodes, and Svastra. I don’t recommend double flowering plants of any kind for a wildlife habitat. Some improved to enhance size and color, which I like others are enhanced with double flowers.

My time has come.Wake up any Green Day fans you know, September is just about done. ![]() ![]() The problem is that as each string is tightened, the additional load causes the pitch of previously adjusted strings to change. This means that each of its approximately 220 strings needs to be tightened considerably, adding tremendous additional tension to the piano's structure. If a piano has gone without tuning for an extended period, its pitch may have dropped far below A- 440. Won't tuning restore my piano's pitch to A- 440? The drop in the dry season tends to exceed the rise during humid times, so the net result is a drop in pitch each year that the piano isn't serviced. Then during dry times the soundboard flattens out, lowering tension on the strings and causing the pitch to drop. As the relative humidity goes up, the soundboard swells, increasing its crowned shape and stretching the piano's strings to a higher pitch. While wooden soundboards produce a wonderful sound, they also react constantly to climate changes. ![]() That's because the piano's main acoustical structure - the soundboard - is made of wood. (Most piano manufacturers recommend three to four tunings the first year, and at least two per year after that.)Īside from this initial settling, climate change is the main cause of pitch change. It's very important to maintain any new piano at the proper pitch during this period, so the string tension and piano structure can reach a stable equilibrium. In the case of new pianos, the pitch drops quickly for the first couple of years as the new strings stretch and wood parts settle. Piano strings change pitch for two primary reasons: the initial stretching and settling of strings when the piano is new, and soundboard movement due to humidity variation. You also ensure proper ear training because you always hear your music in the correct key. ![]() By always maintaining your piano at standard pitch, you create long-term tuning stability because the strings and structure stay in equilibrium. When your piano varies from A-440, pitch adjustments are required to bring it back to standard. ![]() At this pitch, power and tonal range are optimum and your piano will match the pitch of other instruments. Your piano is designed to sound its best when tuned to A-440 (A above middle C vibrates at 440 cycles per second), the international pitch standard. © 1992 & 1994 The Piano Technicians Guild, Inc.
