He watches the hippies dance, reciting the dialogue word-for-word as a flower child gushes, “If we all can’t live together and be happy… what kind of way is that to go through life?” Heston just snickers, “They sure don’t make pictures like that any more.” In the 2020s, we’ve all been there. At one point, Heston hides out in an empty theater showing the Woodstock documentary. Director Boris Sagal gives it an authentically scuzzy vibe, where Seventies L.A. This extremely Me Decade adaptation of Richard Matheson’s landmark 1954 novel I Am Legend is a paranoid pandemic nightmare that turned out to be way too prophetic - for some of us, it was the movie we couldn’t stop watching in lockdown. Charlton Heston is the lone survivor from the plague, fighting off a cult of killer mutants in the deserted streets of Southern California. Los Angeles, 1975: Biological warfare has wiped out the human race, leaving one man standing. (It was also decided early on that superhero movies as a whole usually fall out the parameters of science fiction, so you won’t the MCU, et al., canon on this list - with one very notable exception.) Here are our picks for the best the genre has to offer. There were more than a few arguments when it came to the picks. Instead, we went bigger and bulked it up with an extra 50 entries, all the better to pay lip service to more of the pulpy, the poppy and the perverse entries - not to mention some of our personal favorites - that don’t normally get shout-outs in these kinds of lists. So when it came time to rank the greatest sci-fi movies of all time, we couldn’t stop at 100. Now it’s a genre wide enough to encompass everything from Ad Astra to Zardoz. Once upon a time, sci-fi was considered nothing more than a niche for nerds. These films have given us visions of utopias and dystopias, asked deep questions about the human experience and the pros and cons of artificial intelligence, thrilled us and made us think. Ever since that bullet-like rocket gave the Moon a black eye in 1902 and added an element of fantasy into a very young art form, those speculative and imaginative stories set in the far reaches of space and/or on our own scorched earth have been an integral part of a well-balanced cinematic diet. How boring the movies would be - and how robbed we audiences would be - if science fiction never existed, or never made it past the that’s-just-for-academics stage of evolution. Thomas “Neo” Anderson is just another computer programmer. never makes it to Earth, so he never has to go home. Giant prehistoric monsters aren’t awakened from centuries-long slumbers and don’t wreck a single metropolis. The name Luke Skywalker means nothing to anyone neither does Marty McFly, “Mad” Max Rockatansky, or Godzilla. The adventures of space explorers and time travelers, androids and alien races don’t thrill a generation of kids chomping popcorn at Saturday matinees. ![]() Somewhere, in a galaxy far, far away, Georges Méliès never sends a bunch of folks on a trip to the moon. No Longer Rentableįinally, you may use the notice to vacate whenever you’ve decided to sell, remodel, move into, or otherwise remove the property from the rental market. Using a notice to vacate can give this information to your tenant. ![]() If you work in a no-cause area, you will still be required to give tenants enough notice to move out of the property safely. In other states, you are able to terminate a lease agreement at any time for any reason. In some states and areas, you are required to have a specific reason for ending a lease agreement. If the tenant decides not to honor your request, you would need to file for an eviction. Your notice should include the reasons the lease agreement will be considered invalid. If the terms of your lease agreement were broken but you do not believe the tenant needs to be urgently evicted for the issues, you can issue a notice to vacate. Giving notice with enough time will allow tenants to come to you with any questions and also prepare to find somewhere else to live as soon as possible. Ending Month-To-Month TenancyĪs month-to-month tenancies don’t have the long-term stability of a longer lease agreement, you must give tenants sufficient notice when it is coming up on time for them to move out. Have you or the tenant decided not to renew the lease, and the tenant will be vacating the property at the end of the tenancy period? If so, you should send a notice to vacate with at least 30 days notice to morally end the lease agreement terms upon move out. Each of these cases is likely to come with specific rules, and those rules will depend on your local and state laws: Nonrenewal Of Lease There are a few cases when you will need to use a notice to vacate letter or a lease termination letter. When Do You Use A Notice To Vacate Letter? Whether you are coming up on the end of a year-long tenancy or working on a month-to-month rental, the tenant is giving you advanced, required notice of their departure. There may come a time when a tenant sends you a notice of their intent to vacate. This type of letter is not only used by landlords but by tenants as well. For example, a tenant may have already told you that they plan to move out at the end of their agreement, but you would still want to send a notice to vacate or lease termination letter to formally end the agreement. A termination, on the other hand, is what initially happens whenever either party wants to end the lease agreement or the lease agreement is broken. What is the difference between eviction and termination when dealing with this type of notice?Īn eviction occurs whenever court action is required to get a tenant to agree to leave a property after their lease is broken or no longer valid. While a notice to vacate can be used in cases of both termination and eviction, it is more likely to be used for termination cases. There are many different notices that landlords use while working with tenants, and that can make the entire process confusing.Ī notice to vacate, at the broadest understanding, is a letter from you to your tenant giving them notice of when they are expected to leave the property. The first thing you need to get a good understanding of is what this notice is.
![]() Yes, Flash may be “just another tool” in the eyes of some, but don’t kid yourselves regarding its inherent limitations. Sadly, everything has become a slave to the needs of the computer. I’ll admit, I’ve seen a precious few examples where an animator is drawing frame-by-frame directly into Flash, but even those results, while noble in the attempt, do not produce anything that has the sensitive rhythmic linework I associate with the best of pencil animation, due to the clunky line quality that I always think looks like a brush inked line that’s been hacked out on both sides with an Exacto knife! I’ve had my own brush inked line art ruined in a similar way by technicians who imported it into the “Illustrator” program, leaving it in a mangled mess, all in their quest for it to be a vectorized image. But please don’t try to convince the rest of us that, in the right hands, somebody could produce a film that rivals “Pinocchio” using Flash. If these limitations are all perfectly fine with you folks, then go ahead and enjoy it as a medium. Again, the Flash software is not conducive to subtle animation. At best, there may be an attempt at contriving a 3/4 view inbetween by sliding the features gradually along the the front face cutout before replacing it altogether with the profile. When a character on “Fosters” turns his head from the front to the side, there are no inbetweens allowing for a gradual turn, just a *whoosh* sound as the head immediately changes views in a single frame. Any “Squash and Stretch” you see is not the real deal either, as it is achieved simply by distorting the image along its X or Y axis. In “Fosters” for example, while I’ll grant you there may be a certain visual appeal in terms of graphic shapes, it is still just predetermined replaceable character parts being shifted around on screen. Like it or not, there are those of us traditionalists who see Flash for what it is: a “tool” for creating computerized cutouts using replacement parts, not fluid character animation.Įven the examples being cited here as superior, such as the dancing frog short and “Foster’s Home For Imaginary Friends”, may well be entertaining but they are not in any way comparable visually to the best of traditional hand-drawn classical animation. ![]() To all those who defend Flash and claim that “it’s just another tool” and can produce wonderful results in the hands of a skilled artist, I have this to say: An old Etch-a-Sketch is also “just another tool” as well, yet I could practise with it for months or years on end and never produce an image with the same control or visual appeal as I could with a pencil on paper. But I have taken great pains to explain my views, so I hope that even those of you who like using the program will at least try to understand where I am coming from on this rather contentious subject: I just posted the following comment that I know is going to result in a good trouncing over on their board. In fact, I even find the limited animation style of Hanna-Barbera's 1960's era shows like "Yogi Bear" to be far more visually appealing due to the organic, hand-drawn nature of what inbetweens there are. I'll admit my bias against it is as one who finds the results thus far to be less than satisfying when compared to the best frame-by-frame pencil animation from the glorious past that I grew up on. Over on Cartoon Brew there is this discussion currently going on debating the merits or lack thereof regarding the Flash animation software. This activity is likely to be sparse and anatomically distributed, with different brain regions contributing to the quality and strength of the recall. Retrieval is hence considered as a reconstructive rather than a replicative process. ![]() ![]() The study of memory retrieval in the mammalian brain assumes that the process involves reactivation of patterns of neural activity associated with the original experience, although not necessarily identical with the activity patterns that represented the original experience. We will begin with selected studies of memory retrieval in the rodent brain and proceed to discuss aspects of retrieval of episodic memory in the human brain. In this work, we will review some of these developments. The development of novel paradigms, model systems, and new tools in molecular genetics, electrophysiology, optogenetics, in situ microscopy and functional imaging, have contributed markedly in recent years to our ability to investigate retrieval and understand part of its processes and mechanisms from the cellular to the behavioral level. This was owing to a multitude of hindrances, including difficulties in teasing apart retrieval from encoding, limited knowledge on localization of specific candidate memory circuits in humans and animals, and lack of neurobiological methods with the proper spatiotemporal resolution that permits monitoring and manipulation of these circuits to observe, block, trigger or enhance retrieval. In fact, once encoding is over, memory unretrieved, whether naturally or by experimental manipulations, is undetected, hence retrieval of the engram or part of it is an essential part of the proof that the specific engram exists.ĭespite its central importance in the study of memory and the abundance of data and models of retrieval in human experimental psychology, until fairly recently, retrieval in complex neural circuitry remained mostly an uncharted terrain in the neuroscience of memory. Retrieval is critical to understanding memory. These sequential and parallel processes can be completed within a fraction of a second (e.g., Thorpe et al. In memories encoded and stored in more complex circuits, such as distributed memories in the mammalian brain, retrieval is posited to involve distinct processes, including selection, reactivation or reconstruction of the target representation, and assessment of the outcome ( Tulving 1983 Dudai 2002). In simple modified reflex behavior, it refers to the postexperience readout of the experience-induced change in behavior and in its underlying synaptic efficacy ( Kandel and Schwartz 1982 Byren and Hawkins 2015). Retrieval is the use of learned information, induced by sensory or internal cues. These representations are driven largely by the activity patterns shaped during encoding, but are malleable, subject to the influence of time and interaction of the existing memory with novel information. ![]() The picture that emerges is that retrieval involves coordinated fast interplay of sparse and distributed corticohippocampal and neocortical networks that may permit permutational binding of representational elements to yield specific representations. We review selected developments in the study of explicit retrieval in the rodent and human brain. The development of novel paradigms, model systems, and new tools in molecular genetics, electrophysiology, optogenetics, in situ microscopy, and functional imaging, have contributed markedly in recent years to our ability to investigate brain mechanisms of retrieval. Retrieval, the use of learned information, was until recently mostly terra incognita in the neurobiology of memory, owing to shortage of research methods with the spatiotemporal resolution required to identify and dissect fast reactivation or reconstruction of complex memories in the mammalian brain. In modern Church Slavonic, there are three stress marks (acute, grave, and circumflex), which formerly represented different types of pitch accent. Unicode forgot to encode R-grave when encoding the letters with stress marks. The system is identical in both Latin and Cyrillic scripts. They use (in dictionaries, orthography, and grammar books, for example) four different stress marks (grave, acute, double grave, and inverted breve) on the letters a, e, i, o, r, and u: à è ì ò r̀ ù. In Croatian, Serbian, and Slovene, the stressed syllable can be short or long and have a rising or falling tone. Now the main stress is preferably marked with an acute, and the role of the grave is limited to marking secondary stress in compound words (in dictionaries and linguistic literature). Ukrainian, Rusyn, Belarusian, and Russian used a similar system until the first half of the 20th century. In turn, it changes the pronunciation and the whole meaning of the group. Then, it forces the stress on the accented word-syllable instead of having a different syllable in the stress group getting accented. In Macedonian the stress mark is orthographically required to distinguish homographs (see § Disambiguation) and is put mostly on the vowels е and и. Hence the rule to always mark the stress in this isolated case. While the stress is not marked most of the time a notable exception is the single-vowel word и: without an accent it denotes the "and" conjunction (рокля и пола = dress and skirt) while stressed shows the possessive pronoun "her" (роклята ѝ = her dress). It most commonly appears in books for children or foreigners, and dictionaries-or to distinguish between near- homophones: па̀ра ( pàra, "steam/vapour") and пара̀ ( parà, "cent/penny, money"), въ̀лна ( vằlna, "wool") and вълна̀ ( vǎlnà, "wave"). In Bulgarian, the grave accent sometimes appears on the vowels а, о, у, е, и, and ъ to mark stress. Italian has word pairs where one has an accent marked and the other not, with different pronunciation and meaning-such as pero ("pear tree") and però ("but"), and Papa ("Pope") and papà ("dad") the latter example is also valid for Catalan. ![]() Other mistakes arise from the misunderstanding of truncated and elided words: the phrase un po' ("a little"), which is the truncated version of un poco, may be mistakenly spelled as * un pò. This is nonstandard but is especially common when typing capital letters: * E` or * E' instead of È (" is"). Typists who use a keyboard without accented characters and are unfamiliar with input methods for typing accented letters sometimes use a separate grave accent or even an apostrophe instead of the proper accent character. Some examples of words with a final grave accent are città ("city"), così ("so/then/thus"), più ("more"/"plus"), Mosè ("Moses"), and portò (" brought/carried"). Words that end with stressed -e or -o may bear either an acute accent or a grave accent, depending on whether the final e or o sound is closed or open, respectively. The grave accent marks the stressed vowels of words in Maltese, Catalan, and Italian.Ī general rule in Italian is that words that end with stressed -a, -i, or -u must be marked with a grave accent. The accent mark was called βαρεῖα, the feminine form of the adjective βαρύς ( barús), meaning "heavy" or "low in pitch." This was calqued (loan-translated) into Latin as gravis which then became the English word grave. The grave and circumflex have been replaced with an acute accent in the modern monotonic orthography. In modern practice, it replaces an acute accent in the last syllable of a word when that word is followed immediately by another word. The grave accent first appeared in the polytonic orthography of Ancient Greek to mark a lower pitch than the high pitch of the acute accent. ![]() A free-standing version of the symbol ( `), commonly called a backtick, also exists and has acquired other uses. For less-used and compound diacritics, a combining character facility is available. It has no single meaning, but can indicate pitch, stress, or other features.įor the most commonly encountered uses of the accent in the Latin and Greek alphabets, precomposed characters are available. It is also used in other languages using the Latin alphabet, such as Mohawk and Yoruba, and with non-Latin writing systems such as the Greek and Cyrillic alphabets and the Bopomofo or Zhuyin Fuhao semi-syllabary. The grave accent ( ◌̀) ( / ɡ r eɪ v/ or / ɡ r ɑː v/ ) is a diacritical mark used to varying degrees in French, Dutch, Portuguese, Italian and many other western European languages, as well as for a few unusual uses in English.

It prompts you to log in to your adobe account along the way to get access. I then emailed that request code to a pc and jumped online using the link and requested a response code which involves you entering the request code and the serial number of CS6. I clicked on that and requested the request code.Ī screen then pops up with the request code and has a field for you to put the response code in once you have it. That link also did not show when I opened InDesign.īoth of the above is what threw me the first time I tried as I couldn’t find the link.īut when I opened illustrator, I could now see the "I cannot connect to the internet" link. ![]() I had to do this as I could not find the "I cannot connect to the internet" link on that page that they talk about. Then did a fresh install of CS6 and just hit the retry later button when the no internet connection panel came up and I could not validate. I went back through and tried the offline activation process again that Nancy supplied a link to, as per below. So I dont think it is this, but it is the most likely reason so far, so I am going to investigate further. So I downloaded and installed Java8 to see if that was the issue thinking if I could get it to validate I will uninstall Java8 after validation and then install Java6, but unfortunatley with Java 8 installed it still did not validate. I did notice that it requires Java 8 or later for TLS1.2 and I know CS6 requires Java 6. On the two differnt machines I am running Yosemite10.10 (test machine) on one and Sierra10.12 on the other and I am running Google Chrome 92.0 and Safari 12.12 on both of these machines. When I read into the info on the link you supplied, it says if affects OS 10.8 and before as well as differnt older web browsers. ![]() This is actually a really intresting read and the timing of being able to validated the serial number before and adobe turning inforcing TLS1.2 on Jdoes fit as I am only now experiencing this problem. I spent time on adobe chat last night and they even issued me a new serial number, but that didnt work either and now they wont talk to me in chat saying the product is no longer supported. The strange thing is that I reformatted a machine last month and its all OK. I also tried from home and through my phone just incase our work router, internet, virus protection software was casuing issues. I have tried this on both a Sierra and Yosemite Mac, both freshly reformatted and I get the same problem. If I hit retry it will come up with the same screen again and if I hit connect it will let me install and even run updates of the programs but won’t validate, which will only leave the software useable for 7days. When I try to validate the serial number it comes up with a “Please connect to the Internet and retry” error, saying it isn’t connected to the internet. I cant get it to validate a legit serial number that is registered to my adobe account. Has anyone else had trouble validating serial numbers during the install process of CS6 in the last week or so? ![]() You will want to protect yourself and your drone for possible accidents and damages. ![]() Flying a drone is considered a high-risk activity. Some places legally require pilot training for any photographer looking into making money with their drone photography.Īnother thing to consider in using drones to make money is insurance. Check with your local business practices bureau to abide by the laws in place in your location. If you intend to make a business with your drone photography, you have to treat it as such, a business. This is very important for understanding how to make money with your drone. Make sure you have the necessary knowledge to capture the images that you get hired to take. Before you start taking on gigs, make sure that you are very comfortable with your drone and that you have enough flying experience to be productive. Next, you need to practice and you have to get to know your drone to make it a lucrative activity. Some countries, like the USA, now require you to register your drone before taking it to the skies. ![]() Different laws are in place and they are adapting to this new activity regularly. Now that you have the proper equipment for starting a drone photography business and are ready to take on that first gig, you have to do some groundwork before getting started.įirst, research the regulations regarding operating drones in your country and in the areas you predict that you will be flying your drone. What You Need to Do Before You Start Making Money with Your Drone As you take on more contracts and start making money, you can buy more gear and gadgets for your drone like a gimbal and other items that will give you the opportunity to take better photos. If you are serious in your endeavor, it’s worth investing in professional equipment. This is worth remembering if you want to make money with drones. Nobody will purchase blurred images that look like they were taken with a cheap drone or by an inexperienced photographer. It’s important to have a good camera and provide high quality and sharp images. The first thing you need to know before you want to start selling photos or videos taken with your drone is that the images have to be top quality. It has become easy to sell your aerial images and make money with your drone. So, how to make money with a drone?Īerial photographs are quite impressive and are sought out by event planners, art collectors, and by a variety of industries and businesses. Something that was once limited to the professionals is now available for photo amateurs, enthusiasts, and entrepreneurs. Drones have become so accessible and inexpensive that just about anyone can afford to do aerial photography today. |
