He had just switched to throwing a different company and instead of taking the Discraft sticker off his car, he scraped off the “D” and the “t”. My favorite was a guy who posted a pic on Facebook. “I’m sorry, it looks like my dog took a crap in your bag when I wasn’t looking, want me to clean that stuff out of there?” “If that was really a good disc, Innova would have already made it.” “Hey, I’ve got to go take a dump, give me one of those Latitude discs so I have something to wipe my ass with.” Here’s just a few of the things I’ve heard said to me or others so far this summer… The more new disc golf companies that arrive on the scene, the worse this is getting. But it happens enough lately that it’s been on my mind. ![]() You know, that one who thinks every disc made by the brand they carry will not only automatically ace every hole, but will make them smarter and better looking just by picking it up.ĭon’t get me wrong, this doesn’t happen every day I play. I’m talking about the jackass who thinks their brand of disc is the only one worth throwing.

I don’t mean my friends giving me a hard time. Otherwise known as their unsolicited opinion of the discs I’m carrying. What is this thing I refer to? It’s another person’s nose. Funny thing is that while I run into a ton of people who want to put this in my bag, I don’t know anyone at all who wants it in their own disc golf bag. Others, though, are insistent to the point of rudeness. At first, I politely tell them I don’t want it in my bag. More and more, though, I keep running into people who want to put something in my bag that I absolutely do not want in there. I pretty much know what I want in my disc golf bag. That fluctuates based on where I’m playing, how far away from home I am, and how long I’m going to be there.

There are a couple of ways to deal with missing data. You can’t ignore missing data because many algorithms will not accept missing values. If an outlier proves to be irrelevant for analysis or is a mistake, consider removing it. This step is needed to determine the validity of that number. ![]() Remember: just because an outlier exists, doesn’t mean it is incorrect. However, sometimes it is the appearance of an outlier that will prove a theory you are working on. If you have a legitimate reason to remove an outlier, like improper data-entry, doing so will help the performance of the data you are working with. Often, there will be one-off observations where, at a glance, they do not appear to fit within the data you are analyzing. For example, you may find “N/A” and “Not Applicable” both appear, but they should be analyzed as the same category. These inconsistencies can cause mislabeled categories or classes. Structural errors are when you measure or transfer data and notice strange naming conventions, typos, or incorrect capitalization. This can make analysis more efficient and minimize distraction from your primary target-as well as creating a more manageable and more performant dataset. For example, if you want to analyze data regarding millennial customers, but your dataset includes older generations, you might remove those irrelevant observations. Irrelevant observations are when you notice observations that do not fit into the specific problem you are trying to analyze. De-duplication is one of the largest areas to be considered in this process. When you combine data sets from multiple places, scrape data, or receive data from clients or multiple departments, there are opportunities to create duplicate data. Duplicate observations will happen most often during data collection. Remove unwanted observations from your dataset, including duplicate observations or irrelevant observations. Step 1: Remove duplicate or irrelevant observations While the techniques used for data cleaning may vary according to the types of data your company stores, you can follow these basic steps to map out a framework for your organization.

Instead, use 5 tablespoons Plus 1 teaspoon, which is a more precise amount. While you can approximate the amount and use just a little more than 5 tablespoons, there is a better approach. So, how much tbsp are there in a third cup? 13 divided by 16 = 5.333, a fraction. Most people struggle to figure out how many teaspoons are in 2/3 cup. Now let’s move on to some more difficult conversions. How many tablespoons are there in an eighth cup? Divide 16 by 8 to get the answer. A quarter cup of dry ingredients, such as rice or flour, contains 4 tablespoons. Divide 16 by 4 to get the number of tablespoons in a quarter cup. Now that you know how many tbsp are in 1/2 cup, you can proceed to scale things down. Half a cup is 8 tablespoons for most substances. Simply halve the amount to get how many tablespoons are in a half-cup. Because 16×34=12, there are 12 tablespoons in a 34 cup.įrom here, most recipes’ calculations become straightforward. It’s multiplying 16 by 34 in this example. How much tbsp are there in a 3/4 cup? You’ll need to do some arithmetic for this. So, the next time you’re baking and a recipe calls for a cup of flour, measure 16 level tablespoons instead of eyeballing it or hoping your regular teacup will suffice. Once you’ve cracked the code, any cup-to-teaspoon conversion becomes second nature. Sit back and relax if you worried and searched the terms ‘how many tbsp in a cup’ midway through cooking. These cups retain a precise amount and are leveled with a flat edge. When you use dry measuring cups to measure liquid components, you will either spill them or receive too little (to avoid spilling). They frequently include a handle and measurement lines, allowing you to achieve the desired measurement without spilling. When measuring wet components, it’s important to use liquid measuring cups. The same is true for liquid substances such as water, cooking oil, syrup, and so on. When cooking with dry ingredients such as sugar, flour, or cocoa powder, one cup equals 16 tablespoons. To be clear, dry and wet cups are the same thing. What is the difference between dry and wet measurements? ![]() One cup is equal to 16.24 tablespoons in the legal cup, which is primarily used by food and drug authorities as well as manufacturers of consumer goods to label their nutritional information. Now, the usual cup is the measuring cup that is used for traditional American foods such as pies and bread, and one customary cup is equal to 16 tablespoons in US measurements. In the United States, there are two primary sizes of cups available: the legal cup and the customary cup therefore, the type of cup you use before converting it to tablespoons is dependent on the size of the cup you use. As an illustration, consider the following discrepancies in tablespoons and cups used around the world in different countries. Technically, there are four different forms of measurements used around the world: the international metric system, the imperial cup system, the United States metric system, and the United Kingdom metric system (in that order). Let’s have a look at our post for a more in-depth guidance and cooking suggestions! In what countries are tablespoons and cups different? So, how many tablespoons are there in a cup of something? The correct answer is that 16 tablespoons equals one cup. ![]() This will result in fewer dishes to clean up afterwards. To save time and effort, utilize some of the tablespoons you already have on hand instead of breaking out the measuring cups. Using tablespoons is not only extremely convenient, but it also decreases the amount of cleanup that needs to be done. Instead of asking yourself, “How many tablespoons are in a cup?” employ this simple trick to ensure that the amount is accurate every time! Have you ever become completely immersed in a complicated recipe only to find you were missing a measuring cup? Although the temptation to eyeball the amount of an item is great, occasionally using too much or too little of an ingredient can ruin a dish. An important step is to be able to calculate how many tablespoons in a cup. If this is the case, read on for additional information. A new baker or cook is likely to be learning how to measure ingredients exactly so that they don’t wind up being used in excess or insufficient amounts in the recipe. ![]() It can then deliver the full PCIe data bandwidth potential to an attached external drive. When a Thunderbolt display is connected to an M1 Mac’s TB4 port, the other Thunderbolt 4 port on the Mac does not need to support video output. Our theory to what causes this dramatic speed increase is that the M1 CPU only supports one video output signal to its TB4 ports. Subsequent testing on an M1 MacBook Pro and MacBook Air revealed the same speed increase. To double-confirm having a Thunderbolt display attached to an M1 Mac mini creates this speed boost, Brady performed the same test with another Thunderbolt 3-equipped display and found the same increase. When Brady switched the displays, the faster speeds followed the Thunderbolt display. Through the process of elimination, the only variable was that one of the minis was connected to a Thunderbolt 3-equipped display while the other mini was connected to a non-Thunderbolt display via HDMI. As both minis should write to the same external drive at the same speed, Brady began investigating what could cause this anomaly. When connected to a 2TB OWC Envoy Pro EX, Brady found one of the minis wrote to the Envoy Pro EX at much higher speeds. One of our product dev team members, Brady Campbell, came across this while running some tests between two M1 Mac minis. You can get up to 67% FASTER write speed from a Thunderbolt-equipped external drive connected to a Thunderbolt port on an M1 Mac when you ALSO have a Thunderbolt display connected directly to the second Thunderbolt port on your M1 Mac.

Time Travelers & Bonfires, released in the spring of 2014, debuted at number 18 on the Billboard 200. Looking to change things up, Sevendust stripped away their metal edge for their next effort, issuing an album of acoustic tracks. Landing just outside the Top Ten, it was their highest-charting set to date, yielding the trio of mainstream rock hits "Unraveling," "Forever," and "Last Breath." Their ninth album, Black Out the Sun, arrived in 2013, topping the hard rock chart. The reunited crew followed with Cold Day Memory in 2010. Chapter VII: Hope and Sorrow arrived a year later and featured appearances by Chris Daughtry, Myles Kennedy, and Mark Tremonti.Īt this time, the band parted ways with Mayo, welcoming Lowery back to Sevendust and restoring their original lineup. Alpha fared better than Next, climbing to number 14 on the Billboard charts and paving the way for the band's seventh effort. The record failed to sell as much as its predecessors, and Sevendust later signed to Asylum Records, issuing Alpha in March 2007. (Lowery, a co-founder of Sevendust, eventually surfaced in the hard rock supergroup Dark New Day.) Sevendust's fifth album and first self-produced effort, Next, appeared in October 2005 on Winedark Records. In late December 2004, word surfaced that Lowery had left the band, and those rumors proved true the following February when Sevendust announced ex-Snot guitarist Sonny Mayo as Lowery's replacement. Seasons followed in 2003, their highest-charting album to date and last with TVT. Their angst-ridden third album, the aptly titled Animosity, appeared in fall 2001 and landed in the Top 30 on the Billboard 200. Shortly thereafter, the group changed their name to Sevendust and released a 1997 self-titled debut, home to the breakthrough singles "Black" and "Bitch." Two years later, they issued the gold-selling sophomore set Home (TVT), which featured their mainstream rock hit "Denial." As the band's audience grew, they played over 800 shows alongside such groups as Korn, Godsmack, Disturbed, and Metallica, even making an appearance at Woodstock '99. The band - comprising frontman Witherspoon, John Connolly (guitar), Clint Lowery (guitar), Vince Hornsby (bass), and Morgan Rose (drums) - first appeared in 1995 as Crawlspace, releasing the single "My Ruin" on the Mortal Kombat: More Kombat soundtrack. Over the years, the band balanced the raw energy and brutality of early albums like 1997's Sevendust and 1999's Home with increasingly atmospheric production and even late-era acoustic sets on releases like Time Travelers & Bonfires (2014) and Kill the Flaw (2015), home to the Grammy-nominated single "Thank You." ![]() ![]() Atlanta-based quintet Sevendust are one of the most prominent nu-metal acts, rising above their contemporaries with an aggressive blend of bottom-heavy riffs and soulful, accessible melodies delivered by vocalist Lajon Witherspoon. These images are important and cast a long shadow, but what does he bring to them by translating them on a large scale with pencil and graphite powder? It seems to me that the final reproduced image is less important than the respect that he has given it through extended labour. I have seen work by Eric Manigaud in which he reproduces photographs of Jewish victims of Nazi mental asylums. Most hyper-realistic drawings which I have seen in the flesh, have been very large so that imperfections of drawing are smoothed through scale.īetterzip 4 0 3. The drawings are not photo-realistic they are of a small intimate size. He shows examples of the drawings and talks about them here. These delicate drawings done with 2H pencil look like old photographs and are either from imagination or based on friends. In the context of this project, his painstaking drawings of the characters come to mind. Blake has had a life long fascination with the poem and has created, over many years, illustrations using collage, painting and drawing. I feel that, for this approach to be valid, the drawing has to say more than a photograph would, and given that many hyper-realistic drawings use a photograph as a reference, it is not always obvious what that might be.Ī couple of years ago, I was lucky to see Peter Blake's illustrations to Dylan Thomas's ‘Under Milk Wood'. Alternatively, it may be a mere demonstration of technical skill. Why you would want to made a drawing look like a photograph? One reason might be that you are drawing something which could not be photographed, say a fantastical beast. ![]() The ultimate example of this is hyper-realism. The first requires minute observational skills and the draughtsmanship to convert he observation in to a detailed representational drawing. The subject should have ‘a sub stantial number of detail ed parts'.Īttention to detail and accumulation of detail are two different approaches to this project. The objective of this project is to produce a drawing which requires focused effort and attention to detail.
It doesn’t really matter whether you use LibreOffice or Apache OpenOffice. RELATED: No More Upgrade Fees: Use Google Docs or Office Web Apps Instead of Microsoft Office This clearly gives a big advantage to LibreOffice, which will develop quicker and incorporate more features and improvements. In the long run, this means that big improvements to OpenOffice can be incorporated into LibreOffice, while big improvements to LibreOffice can’t be incorporated into OpenOffice. This is the result of the different licenses the projects chose. LibreOffice can incorporate OpenOffice’s code, but OpenOffice can’t incorporate LibreOffice’s code. This is because the two different licenses only allow a one-way transfer of code. On the other hand, LibreOffice has some features - like font embedding - that don’t appear in OpenOffice. The practical result is LibreOffice can take OpenOffice’s code and incorporate it into LibreOffice - the licenses are compatible. The Apache OpenOffice project uses the Apache License, while the LibreOffice uses a dual LGPLv3 / MPL license. OpenOffice’s sidebar code was copied and incorporated into LibreOffice. On the other hand, the experimental sidebar in LibreOffice looks basically identical to OpenOffice’s sidebar. The sidebar in OpenOffice is an entirely new feature the Apache OpenOffice project has added to OpenOffice. The sidebar above is an interesting example of where these projects are going. They’re both free and open-source, so you can always download both to compare - you probably won’t notice too much of a difference. The vast majority of people will have trouble noticing the difference between LibreOffice and OpenOffice. We could go on looking for more differences, but this really just feels like nitpicking. Embedding a font in a document ensures that document will look the same on any system, even if the computer doesn’t have the font installed. This can be activated from File > Properties, under the Font tab. LibreOffice also has support for font embedding in documents. On OpenOffice, you still have to select Tools > Word Count to view the word count at any given time - it won’t update and show itself automatically. ![]() Look at LibreOffice’s status bar at the bottom of the window and you’ll see a live-updating word count for the current document. ![]() They have similar interfaces and features. These two projects share the vast majority of their code. Both office suites include the same applications for word processing, spreadsheets, presentations, and databases. ![]() You can download LibreOffice or OpenOffice for free for Windows, Linux, or Mac. Apache released the beta version of OpenOffice 4.1 in March, 2014. LibreOffice has been developing more quickly and releasing new versions more frequently, but the Apache OpenOffice project isn’t dead. The project known as OpenOffice today is actually Apache OpenOffice and is being developed under Apache’s umbrella under the Apache license. In 2011, Oracle gave the trademarks and code to the Apache Software Foundation. Most Linux distributions, including Ubuntu, switched their bundled office suite from to LibreOffice. LibreOffice was a fork of and is built on the original code base. Most outside volunteers - including the contributors to Go-oo, who contributed a set of enhancements used by many Linux distributions - left the project and formed LibreOffice. They renamed the proprietary StarOffice office suite to “Oracle Open Office,” as if they wanted to cause confusion, and then discontinued it. In 2011, Sun Microsystems was acquired by Oracle. ![]() The project continued with help from Sun employees and volunteers, offering the free office suite to everyone - including Linux users. In 2000, Sun open-sourced the StarOffice software - this free, open-source office suite was known as. Sun Microsystems acquired the StarOffice office suite in 1999. |
