The absolute best is cooking them on the beach and using rocks to smash them open … it’s good, messy, fun. I love the whole process of picking the lobsters out of the tanks and the way that place smells all briney and seaweedy, taking them home in their paper bags, steaming them to perfection and stuffing ourselves silly with local corn, caprese salad and a good bottle of white wine on a summer night. Taylor: Growing up by the water in Massachusetts and Rhode Island we ate a lot of seafood in general but Lobster is my fave, (never at a restaurant though, it has to be home cooked). I cried a lot of tears when he died last year. I hope that I can channel a little of that energy in our cards. In Spite of Ourselves, Killing the Blues, I Remember Everything. Taylor: I pretty much like music from every genre but I love … anything John Prine. Taylor: I fracking loved Battlestar Gallactica (the newer one) and more recently The Walking Dead. I have too many favorites but I usually judge them on how they affected my overall view of the world when I read them and two strong leading favorites are AB Guthrie’s The Big Sky and Toni Morrison’s Beloved.

7/9/2023 0 Comments Hp 10bii financial calculator![]() In this problem, the $100 was an investment (i.e., a cash outflow) and the future value of $161.05 would be a cash inflow in five years. Cash inflows are entered as positive numbers and cash outflows are entered as negative numbers. This is simply a way of keeping the direction of the cash flow straight. Most financial calculators (and spreadsheets) follow the Cash Flow Sign Convention. Notice that we entered the 100 in the PV key as a negative number.Had you entered 0.10, the future value would have come out to 100.501 - obviously incorrect. This is because the calculator automatically divides any number entered into I/YR by 100. When we entered the interest rate, we input 10 rather than 0.10.The order in which the numbers are entered does not matter.To solve these problems you simply enter the variables that you know in the appropriate keys and then press the other key to get the answer. In this case, we have a 4-variable problem and were given 3 of them (N, i, and PV) and had to solve for the 4th (FV). Of these, you will always be given 3 or 4 and asked to solve for the other. Every time value of money problem has either 4 or 5 variables.Now to find the future value simply press the FV key. Now all we need to do is enter the numbers into the appropriate keys: 5 into N, 10 into I/YR, -100 into PV. Otherwise, you may find that numbers left over from previous problems will interfere with the solution to this one. Before entering the data you need to make sure that the financial registers (each key is nothing more than a memory register) are clear. In this problem, the $100 is the present value (PV), N is 5, and i is 10%. How much will you have accumulated at the end of this time period? Suppose that you have $100 to invest for a period of 5 years at an interest rate of 10% per year. ![]() We'll begin with a very simple problem that will provide you with most of the skills to perform financial math on the 10BII: If it isn't there, please drop me a note and I'll try to answer the question. If you don't find the answer that you are looking for, please check the FAQ. That's it, the calculator is ready to go. I would press Shift = 5 to display 5 decimal places. To change the display, press Shift =, and finally the numeric key that corresponds to the number of digits you would like to see displayed. Personally, I like to see five decimal places, but you may prefer some other number. By default the 10BII displays only two decimal places. Now, just make sure that you always enter the total number of periods (not necessarily years) into N, the per period interest rate into I/YR, and the per period payment into PMT. To check that it has taken, press Shift and then C (clear all). To fix this problem press 1 (once per year) then Shift and finally PMT. Of course, most people don't recognize a wrong answer when they get one, so they blithely forge ahead. Why? Well, the compounding assumption is hidden from view and in my experience people tend to forget to set it to the correct assumption. That's fine, I suppose, but its better to set it to assume annual compounding and then make manual adjustments when you enter numbers. ![]() The 10BII comes from the factory set to assume monthly compounding. Initial Setupīefore we get started, we need to correctly (in my view, anyway) set up the calculator. We will not need the purple shift key in this tutorial. Please note that in the following text the orange key is referred to as Shift because it is used to shift to the orange-colored function below the key that is pressed next. I will keep the examples rather elementary, but understanding the basics is all that is necessary to learn the calculator. This tutorial will demonstrate how to use the financial functions to handle time value of money problems and make financial math easy. The Hewlett Packard 10BII is a very easy to use financial calculator that will serve you well in all finance courses. These calculators differ slightly, so you may prefer the HP 10B tutorial. If the picture at right doesn't match your calculator, you may have an original HP 10B. Are you a student?

Tracking, like kerning, adjusts the distance between letters. The leading tool as it appears in Adobe Illustrator. A few lines of text will call for different leading measures compared to a blog post or a magazine article increase the leading when designing type for a long article to ensure your audience can follow along with ease. Negative values decrease the spacing between lines of text, while positive values increase it. Highlight the text you want to alter or select the whole text box with the Selection Tool and change the leading in the Character palette. Think of this number as the minimum value for leading, as going smaller might affect readability. ![]() When typing multiple lines of text with the Type Tool (T) in, say 12 point font, Adobe will revert to an estimate leading value that is enclosed in parentheses (pictured below). Like kerning, leading is found in the Character palette in Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop. Leading refers to the spacing between baselines, which often needs to be changed so ascenders and descenders don’t overlap. These words sit on a baseline, which is where leading comes into play. In the example below, most of the letters meet at the x-height, or the mean line at which lowercase letters meet. Descenders refer to the letters that dip below the baseline, such as g, y, or j. While Adobe defaults the leading to Auto when you type paragraphs, the program often does not account for the ascenders and descenders that might overlap.Īscenders are letters that extend above the x-height of your text , such as d, h, or l. Like kerning, leading can impact the readability and legibility of type. Big gaps between lines of text can make reading more difficult and disrupt the reader’s flow, so don’t go too crazy with leading. This term came from the days of typesetting when individual pieces of lead were inserted between text blocks to increase the vertical distance between lines. Leading consists of the vertical spacing between lines of contiguous text. The kerning tool as it appears in Adobe Illustrator. Play around with different values to find spacing that satisfies your design. Negative values will bring the two letters closer together, while positive values will increase distance between the letters. ![]() If you want to use the Character palette, navigate to the kerning drop down (pictured below in Illustrator), and select from the menu or use the up and down arrows. Hold down Option and use the right or left arrow keys to move the letters closer or farther apart. To change the spacing between individual characters, activate the Type Tool (T) and move your cursor between your chosen letters. In InDesign and Illustrator only, you can quickly bring the Character palette into view by hitting Cmd+T or by accessing the Window drop down and hovering over Type to enable the palette. You can find this in the Character palette, located in the Window drop down menu. Kerning is usually reserved for medium to larger text and headlines, as those letters are more noticeable when the spacing is out of balance.Īdobe Creative Cloud programs such as Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign all have a central place to adjust kerning. The goal is to have proportional spacing between characters pay special attention to serifs, flourishes, and angular letters like A, W, or V to achieve a consistent appearance. In this image, the letters are disproportionately spaced out. Both extremes will effect the legibility and readability of type. There are extremes to kerning letters can be too far apart or too close together. Kerning refers to the space between two letters or characters. Read on to learn about each process and how you can use them to manipulate text in Adobe Creative Cloud. These elements work in tandem to provide visually appealing lines of type. In this overview, you’ll learn the about the key spacing processes of kerning, leading, and tracking. Letter and line spacing are fundamental tools for anyone working with text in a design. ![]() Have you ever come across the terms kerning, leading, and tracking in typography, but haven’t been able to pinpoint exactly what they are?

The couple visited the Ikea store in Halifax while on a vacation in 2018 and met with a planner who helped them draw up their kitchen design. And it's our time," said Ann, 57, who is getting closer to retirement, while Tony, 61, has already retired from work as a school principal. The Normans wanted to renovate their kitchen for years but put it aside until their children finished university. He says Ikea told them not to unbox anything until all the products arrive, but almost a year later, there's no firm date on when that will be. "I'm good to go been good to go I've just waiting on Ikea," he said. We got 22 items from this kitchen," Tony said pointing to the cupboards behind him. "We got 26 items from the kitchen downstairs that need to be sent to us. They're missing critical pieces, like cabinets, needed to move forward. New appliances the couple bought months earlier are still being stored at the furniture store's warehouse, and their side-by-side recreational vehicle is in a friend's garage, to make room for the boxes in the garage.ĭespite all the boxes, the Normans say they only have three-quarters of the supplies from Ikea to install their kitchen cabinets. Tony Norman points to some plumbing and electrical work that is stalled where a second kitchen was supposed to be installed. Instead, almost a year after making their first order, boxes from Ikea are strewn throughout the otherwise tidy home, and the Normans say their lives have been upended. "It was going to be my dream kitchen," said Ann, sitting at a table where a new island should be, with glossy white cabinetry, a gas range, in-wall oven planned for the rest of the room. In February and March of last year, the Normans ordered materials for two kitchens from the company - one for the main floor and a second one for a living space downstairs for their son - as they embarked on upgrades to the bungalow they've lived in for about 30 years. ![]() (Heather Gillis/CBC)ĭreams of a new kitchen have turned into a nightmare for a Gander, N.L., family after Swedish furniture giant Ikea stopped shipping larger orders to the province, halting Tony and Ann Marie Normans' major home renovation.

Louis, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and New York City. Other major jazz cities of the golden age include New Orleans, Chicago, St. Kansas City is known as one of the most popular cradles of jazz. Golden jazz era in the Paris of the Plains Several African-American musicians in the limelight labored for hours at their craft without receiving pay. It took time before they were celebrated for inventing jazz and helping it become popular. The style of music created a sense of identity, originality and social cohesion among black musicians - and in a time before the Civil Rights movement kicked off.īut African-Americans have not always received credit where it’s due. The genre is an important part of Black History Month. Jazz helped change the way people see each other and learn to cut loose and enjoy the moment. Music and the arts have the power to bridge cultural gaps, stop prejudices, empower the voiceless, and teach people about perspectives they never considered. Performers in the past also used their talents to push the needle on issues big and small. These musicians and a long list of others on the radio have used their talents to push platforms important to them such as body acceptance, climate change, immigration policy, and ending violence. Post Malone, Lizzo and Billie Eilish topped the Billboard 100 Chart in 2019. Today, people listen to music whenever they please and through multiple streaming options. The music scene has evolved just as much - if not more so. Kansas City has gone through a complete landscape change with new big venues, skyscrapers, and shopping malls. Scholars have tried to define it by comparing it to other mediums like opera, classical art, and dance.Ī century has passed since jazz took over the clubs in Missouri. Jazz is difficult to define because it encompasses a range of music spanning a period of more than 100 years. A minor league baseball pitcher described a pitch in a game once as a jazz ball “because it wobbles, and you simply can’t do anything with it.” The earliest written record of the word is in a 1912 article in the Los Angeles Times. Jazz is hailed as one of America’s original art forms, and it’s still alive in Kansas City today. The music genre has several unique features including: swing and bluesy notes, call and response vocals, various rhythms all at once, and improvisation. It developed from roots in both blues and ragtime. Jazz originated in African-American communities, particularly in New Orleans. Count Basie, Charlie Parker, and Bennie Moten are just some of the names of the people who dominated the jazz movement in Kansas City. The hard-swinging, bluesy sounds ushered in a new era of party and celebration music. About 100 years ago, people flocked to Kansas City to listen to a burgeoning new style of music called jazz.ĭuring the 1920s and 1930s, big band music gave way to bebop. ![]() Please look at the time stamp on the story to see when it was last updated.

We especially like the auto-save safety net, just in case the worst happens. We find Lightworks is an incredibly stable video editor app - even under pressure. Hardware encoding is now enabled for DCI 4K and 8K HEVC exports, resulting in significantly faster performance,” according to Adobe. Having said that, native support for Apple M1 silicon means HEVC exports are “faster with macOS 12 on M1 Macs. Lightworks' smooth import process and contextual hints aid beginners (Image credit: Future) PerformanceĪs you’d expect from an industry veteran, Adobe Premiere Pro performs like a beast - we found it to be fast and stable - although generally, it’s not as fast as Apple Final Cut Pro for export and render. On the other hand, more advanced users will appreciate a bit more flexibility.įinally, fresh support for Apple ProRes codecs has led to improvements to real-time editing across all platforms. But we thought it could be better, since other video editors tend to automatically shift audio to the right location. You’ll also find it easy to add clips on multiple layers without overwriting the existing audio - just drag and drop. This brings Lightworks in line with most modern video editing software. Just title your project and you’re ready. Now, the project mirrors the format and frame-rate of the first clip added to the sequence. In previous versions, you had to set the number of frames per second - something we thought “experienced users would have no problem choosing, but which might confuse more casual editors”. New projection creation has even been tweaked and simplified. A pop-up helper will also appear whenever you undertake an action for the first time, offering specific hints and advice. This is where you can set language, keyboard shortcuts, and layouts. The experience welcomes novice editors with a Startup Wizard. It’s quite efficient, too, with the tool offering four separate workspaces customized for specific workflows: Log, Edit, VFX, and Audio. Lightworks offers a fluid editing experience that we found straightforward and mostly similar to other NLEs. Premiere Pro's import window emphasizes media over project settings (Image credit: Future) Sequence Settings can be changed, but we felt “just getting right down to working with clips in their native format will be what people choose to do,” and the “removal of potentially unnecessarily complex tweaking is most welcome.” Select clips, click Import, and they’re added to your sequence. There has also been a renewed focus on importing media, with a redesigned import window prioritizing clips.
