Sayers, who died in 1958, knew much poverty and hardship, but she was well able to have a laugh, was "interested in lads", had an emerging sexuality, a gift for language and could utter a "good curse", Mr Ó Héalaí added. Peig: tuairisc do scrobh Peig Sayers ar imeachta a beatha fin.

"The image created by the text on the Leaving Certificate didn't give a good indication of the woman she really was," Mr Ó Héalaí said.Ī tale of a woman who had a child with a merman, and other stories which show a more open, complex and often defiant character, are among the accounts gathered.

![]() The group has risen to prominence again recently, releasing their 15th studio album, Future Past, last year and undertaking a 40th anniversary celebration tour, including headlining the British Summer Time festival in London’s Hyde Park this year. I’m sure as hell glad I’m around to see the day,” he added.Īlso inducted during the ceremony were Lionel Richie, Pat Benatar, Eminem, Carly Simon, Eurythmics, Harry Belafonte, Judas Priest and Dolly Parton.ĭuran Duran formed in Birmingham in 1978 and were one of the biggest acts of the 1980s, with hits including Rio, Wild Boys and Bond theme A View to a Kill. Taylor added that he was “truly sorry and massively disappointed” he could not attend the ceremony, noting he had even bought a new guitar for the occasion, but that he was “very proud of these four brothers” and “overjoyed” they were accepting this award. “However, none of this needs to or should detract from what this band (with or without me) has achieved and sustained for 44 years.” “Recently I was doing OK after some very sophisticated life-extending treatment, that was until a week or so ago when I suffered a setback, and despite the exceptional efforts of my team, I had to be honest in that both physically and mentally, I would be pushing my boundaries,” Taylor continued. Rodgers and Edwards refers to Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards, the pop producers and founders of Chic, who worked with Duran Duran throughout their career. Although my current condition is not immediately life-threatening there is no cure.” “I have the ‘Rodgers and Edwards’ of doctors and medical treatment that until very recently allowed me to just rock on. Many families have experienced the slow burn of this disease and of course we are no different so I speak from the perspective of a family man but with profound humility to the band, the greatest fans a group could have and this exceptional accolade. Taylor wrote: “Just over four years ago I was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic prostate cancer.

Hopefully, this gives you a good overview of the different audio inputs in Windows and how you can use them to record the audio you need. Using this input, you can record music playing on your computer, audio from a video playing on your computer, or any other sound from your PC. If you’re using a program like Audacity, just change the sound input to Stereo Mix. ![]() If you use the default Sound Recorder or Voice Recorder (Windows 10) apps, they will automatically record from Stereo Mix as long as you disable the microphone first. Stereo Mix will let you open a sound recording program on your computer, choose Stereo Mix as the input and it’ll record whatever sound comes out of your computer. For example, if you are watching a YouTube video on your computer, how would you record the audio? You could try to place a microphone next to your speakers, but that’s not an ideal way to record that audio. So what does it do? Basically, it lets you record any sound that is playing on your computer. If you don’t have this option, it means your sound card doesn’t support the feature. Lastly, back on the Recording tab, you may notice an option called Stereo Mix. Here you can setup voice control for Windows, train the computer to understand your voice better and setup your microphone properly for speech recognition. If you go back to the Recording tab, select Microphone and click on Configure, the Speech Recognition dialog will appear. There are many other options, including DVD quality, which you can use if you have a high-quality microphone. By default, it’s set to 1 channel, 16 bit and 44100 Hz, which is CD quality. On the Advanced tab, you can change the default format for the audio. On the Levels tab, you can adjust the sensitivity of the microphone depending on your needs. Click the Apply button and any sound picked up by your mic should play through your speakers in real time. If you have multiple playback devices, you can choose from the dropdown list. By default, it’s set to your default playback device, which will normally be your headphones or speakers. Obviously, this will work much better if you are using headphones, so that the sound from the speakers doesn’t feed back into the microphone.Ĭheck the Listen to this device box and select the device you want to play the audio back through. So as you talk into the microphone, the sound will be played in real time to your speakers. This is a cool feature whereby you can play the sound that is being recorded by your microphone directly to your speakers. The easiest way is to use the Voice Memos app and the iPhone’s built-in microphone. The more interesting feature is on the Listen tab. First is a way to get the audio in a cable or a microphone. ![]() iMusic MP3 Audio Recorder In Conclusion Top 1. On the General tab, you get some basic information about the device and you can choose to disable it here if you like. You wont need all the five MP3 voices recorders, only find one perfect fit, and get started with it. If you select the microphone and click on Properties, you’ll be able to adjust quite a few settings. ![]() The fund will exist as a ‘sister company’ to Product Hunt. Product Hunt, however, is the first of what the team says will be many companies it will own, create and operate in order to provide ‘direct value’ to its portfolio companies. I had a chat with Buckley, Curtis and Cantor about the new fund and company and the way that they hoped to differentiate Hyper in a world of aggressively service-oriented venture firms. The Hyper concept sounds fresh in combination, if not in components.Ī short list of some of the people involved as advisors, mentors or investors themselves includes Alexis Ohanian, Founder of Seven Seven Six, Serena Williams, Alfred Lin of Sequoia, Garry Tan of Initialized, Harry Stebbings, Jeffrey Katzenberg, Naval Ravikant, Owen van Natta, Ryan Hoover, Ryan Tedder of OneRepublic and Sriram Krishnan of a16z. It’s a pretty eclectic group, but if you squint you can see the shape of the ambitions that Hyper has reflected in the parties involved. A mix of media, venture and product figures is probably the right way to go if you want to back yourself into a media empire funded by venture capital returns. Hyper itself is trying to establish two lines of business. A portfolio of wholly owned companies like Product Hunt (which still counts AngelList as a majority investor and Ravikant on its board) and other new media brands. ![]() And the other component which includes the portfolio of Hyper funds (plural theirs) and a founder program that includes mentorship, twice-a-year-events, and other future efforts - eventually. The mentorship component that Hyper hopes to add for founders in the fund is an 8-week founder program that includes individuals from “partners” like Andreessen Horowitz, AngelList, Sequoia Capital, the Twenty Minute VC Podcast and Product Hunt helping founders to solve ‘key challenges’. Some of the participants are investors in Hyper, though none of the funds participated themselves The group includes some close to home figures as well, in Product Hunt GM Ashley Higgins and founder Ryan Hoover. The program will also offer office hours with experts, an exclusive Product Hunt launch event and a Public Hyper Demo Day and Investor Demo Day to participate in within a year of being in the program. Though the current plans center around small cohorts with a founder program, the ambitions for long term include adding a layer of differentiation that goes beyond fixed checks and partner access. It’s hard to argue with the overall assumption that the Hyper team is working under - capital is majorly commoditized. Frankly, sometimes that’s all you want from an investor whose value add is more of a thorn in your side than anything. But, especially at the early stage there are a few funds and firms that offer a strong value outside of writing checks in the form of, say, hiring, sales introductions or board members that have relevant operational experience. Where Hyper differs, says Buckley, is that they see distribution as the biggest value add for a nascent startup at the stages where the firm hopes to invest. Product Hunt is one opportunity that he points to as an example. It’s an established launch pad to an audience of extreme early adopters that can provide a seed of a real user base - Hyper itself is launching via a post on the platform.

![]() In the text, the author explains a comic book’s rarity, popularity, and condition are the main factors that determine its value. When they put these together, they have a great topic sentence of their summary paragraph as follows: Once students have determined the main idea, they now have the T, A, A, and M of TAAMIO. In the passage, Cashing in on Comic Books, the main idea is that a comic book’s rarity, popularity, and condition are the main factors that determine its value. These questions above will help guide your students to determine the main idea of the entire text. What is one sentence that describes what the author wants you to learn while reading about the topic?.What is the author saying about that topic?.What is a common topic discussed in each paragraph?.What is the author saying to summarize or conclude the text?.Does the author explicitly state the main idea anywhere in this paragraph?.Does the author explicitly state the main idea in the last sentence?. ![]() Does the author explicitly state the main idea in the first sentence?.What is the author saying about the topic?.What topic is the author introducing or explaining?.Look at this first paragraph of the text. While reading the text, work together with your students to answer the questions below. If your students need additional help to determine the main idea, you can use the questions below to start a discussion with your students. You can check out my Main Idea and Key Details Differentiated Passages and Questions HERE. To write an effective summary, your students must be able to determine a main idea as a starting point (which is why I teach this skill before summarizing). The main idea is what the text is mostly about. The next step is to determine the main idea. Read on to see how I break down each step for students. Next, students will work to write the “meat” of the summary (the M, I, and the O). As students continue practicing this, they will begin to do it automatically. They simply identify the text type, the author, and an action word to begin the first sentence of their summary. To begin with, the T, A, and A should be fairly simple and straightforward for students. Or, you can blow this text up to work together with your students using the shared reading strategy. Remember, these passages are differentiated, so you can even do this work in small groups ahead of time, then come back together to write the summary together as a class. You can hand out a copy of the text to each student to work together with them whole group. Use the graphic organizer included in this freebie to guide your students.įor the purpose of this blog post, I used a passage from my Summarizing Differentiated Passages and Questions found HERE. This passage is titled, Cashing in on Comic Books. I call this the planning stage of writing a summary. In order to get students to successfully write each part of TAAMIO, there are a few things you should work on with students. I included this free poster and a free graphic organizer for students to organize each part of the TAAMIO strategy that will make up their final summary. ![]() O – Organization: follow the organization of the text when writing your summary (include relevant transition words) ![]() I – Important or Key Details: add the important or key details that support the main idea M – Main Idea: write the main idea of the text T – Text Type: In this text, (article, newspaper, passage, etc.)Ī – Author: the author (or use the author’s name)Ī – Action: explains (or describes, argues, tells, teaches, etc.) The strategy below will help you simply and easily teach summarizing informational text. Therefore, a summary will not include a student’s personal opinions or unimportant information. In an informational text, the summary should only include the text’s main idea and key details in a student’s own words. What is a summary?Ī text summary is a brief account or shortened version of the important parts of a text. Summarizing also helps improve memory and comprehension of a text because students are required to focus on only the most important points. It teaches them to determine the most important ideas in a text, ignore unimportant information, and connect the main idea and key details of a text in a logical way. Summarizing informational text has several uses for students. ![]() If so, uninstall that before installing this one.

![]() All building materials and compositions in the BIM database are accessible through the dockable BIM panel. The new release imports and heals assemblies from MCAD programs like Solidworks and Inventor in addition, it imports 3D models from the popular SketchUp conceptual modeling tool, and BIM data from IFC files.īricsCAD BIM (building information model) for architectural design synchronizes 3D models with 2D sections, plans, and details, and reads and writes IFC files from other BIM systems. Now map tiles can be placed from online cartographic services, and drawings can be located accurately using geographic coordinates.īricsCAD V16 expands 3D object creation to 3D surfaces, which can be edited just like 3D solids, including those imported from other CAD programs. Text is enhanced multi-column paragraphs and automatic stacking of fractions. As well, transparency can be applied to objects, layers, and plotted out. Users make better drawings through the new dynamically associative array function that creates and edits linear, rectangular, polar, 3D array, and arrays along paths. It is available on Windows, and soon Mac and Linux.īricsCAD V16 significantly expands the function of the unique Quad cursor so that it also draws objects, in addition to editing them.

Complete biome solution to build a photorealistic burned dead forest. ![]() I can get a realistically lit scene with Skydome lighting, but the trees all look like collections of small rectangles. I can have trees in Maya Software renders, but cannot have a Skydome light, which is an Arnold feature. It seems as though many effects are mutually exclusive in Maya. Is it possible to restore the former look of these objects, so they render looking like trees (as was the case with Maya Software render), and have I used the wrong procedure to do the conversion and thus lost all of the attributes of the tree objects? It appears as a black and white or grayscale collection of rectangles attached to branches. I've done that, and the "object" appears, but looks nothing like the tree it appeared as in a Maya render. What I read is that to make them render in Arnold, they need to be converted to polygons. I realize that Paint Effects are a post processed effect in Maya Software renders, so they apparently don't render in Arnold. |
