As a coastal community, it is just so important that we make sure only the cleanest water enters our bays and estuaries.” Through this property, about 2.6 billion gallons of water makes its way into Philippi Creek and into Sarasota Bay. “This is a watershed that filters water from about 5,000 acres of Sarasota and Sarasota County. “One of the most functional aspects about this project is the water quality improvement,” said Hagen Brody, commissioner of the city of Sarasota. The renovation is also an opportunity to contribute to flood control and improving water quality for the community. The park concept is a grow the game initiative.” “Golf is a great game, and municipal golf is what brings generations together. My plan, not my hope, but my plan is that people will see the golf course from the park and say, ‘you know what, I want to try that game’. “That park is a window into golf for people that don’t know about golf.

On the west side of Circus Boulevard there will be an adjustable short course. There will be a short-game area and driving range on the east side, and a nature park that approximately covers 110 acres. The holes of the original Ross front nine were built below the floodplain elevation and require raising to stay dry. In addition to restoring the Ross eighteen, Mandell will improve drainage throughout the site, which would often flood. He will also widen fairways, regrade rough areas, rebuild tee complexes and rebuild bunkers. Mandell plans to restore the greens and original variety and visual interest of the eighteen Ross holes. Over the past decade, the number of rounds played at the facility had declined and course conditions were gradually deteriorating, prompting city officials to reconsider their options. The original eighteen holes constructed on the site (now the back nines of the two main courses) were designed by Donald Ross in 1925.

![]() Just be sure they are centered on the ear and use the spacer foam pieces as needed to get them close to the ear. Similar to my observations with the XBi2 system, the clip might work on some flip helmets, but if the bottom edge is thick or sharply curved the bi-adhesive cutout pad is probably the better solution.Īt 3.5 cm in diameter the speakers are small and fit well into the recesses of most helmets. This mount worked really well with the XBi2 systems on the Arai XD helmets (review) so I have no concerns. The metal clip and plastic base plate assembly is strong and should work well on most full-face helmets. The lower port is for the headset connection and the upper one does double duty as the DC charging point and the auxiliary connection for wired devices (MP3 player, FRS/GMRS radio, etc). Two 3.5mm four-element connection ports with tight weather seals dominate the back edge of the XBi module. ![]() Volume (top and lower rear) – volume Up and volume Down respectively.Mode (lower front) – activate/deactivate stereo audio broadcasting, intercom pairing (with Power button).Power (top front) – unit On/Off, Bluetooth phone activation, Bluetooth pairing and Intercom pairing (with Mode button). ![]() Intercom (front) – activate/deactivate Intercom and stereo audio listening.The solid black XBi Bluetooth module has five controls on its face: The replaceable Lithium-Polymer battery is pre-installed. The XBi system supports the Headset Profile (HSP) the Hands-Free Profile (HFP) and the Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) but does not appear to support the Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP).Īs with the XBi2, the Intercom Profile (ICP) may be supported as well for intercom and/or potential two-way radio use, but I haven’t been able to confirm this yet.īoth open-face XBi kits contain a Bluetooth module, a light metal clip bracket, a plastic base plate, an integrated headset and boom microphone assembly, and an accessory bag with mounting pads for the speakers and microphone.Īlso included are three small screws, a bi-adhesive cutout and two plastic clips for securing wire leads along the bottom edge of a helmet.Ī 110-240V AC adapter, the small 15-page guide and a popsicle stick for gently pushing wiring up into liners round out the packing list. Chatterbox XBi Bluetooth Profile and Controls How to tell the difference? The Chatterbox XBi2 (L) has a clear base. Or, by using a compatible Bluetooth Adapter (BTA) such as the iCombi AP21 or AG12 from non-Bluetooth devices (review coming soon).Ī 3.5 mm stereo input jack is also available for wired connections. The XBi2, on the other hand, has Class 1 power, boosting its range up to 500 meters (1640 feet).Įquipped with A2DP technology, the Chatterbox XBi unit allows stereo audio to be streamed from any compatible Bluetooth source on a device-to-device basis. Intercom range is listed as 10 meters (33 feet), which equates to Bluetooth Class 2 transmission power. In addition, each module can be used by itself as a standalone system.Ĭhatterbox intercoms are sold as either an XBi or XBi2 module and then an open-face or full-face microphone/headset must be chosen, which provides flexibility when ordering (see Summary Table below). One feature exclusive to the XBi is its ability to stream music from one module to another paired module. The intercom is activated by the system automatically or manually by using the Intercom button.Įach system can be paired individually to two devices at the same time, but of course only one input or device can be used at a time. ![]() The intercom capability is key to such a system when the rider and passenger are each outfitted with an XBi system, full-duplex (two-way) communications are there, just waiting to be used.įeaturing CDMA technology, the intercom provides crystal clear audio, its only limitation being range. The XBi system is marketed as a premier rider-to-passenger communications system. ![]() Still there are community-driven solutions that add such functionality to JUCE through third-party modules, I saw e.g. Furthermore there is no support for native widgets in JUCE. There is a deprecated WYSIWYG GUI editor in the Projucer which has been deprecated and is disabled for new projects – I would not recommend using it. You can try to use the Projucer live build engine to achieve JIT compiling of your GUI code, although I stick to traditional recompilation as I don’t use the Projucer. This gives you flexibility for highly custom GUIs but can be a lot of work for other use-cases. Regarding a WYSIWYG GUI editor: There is no officially recommended/supported solution to that, the current JUCE state-of-the-art approach is hard coded C++ GUI code. a JUCE processing core built as a static library in any kind of application written in any language that allows integration of C libraries, but I’m not sure if that is a good advice for you, this totally depends on your skill level and the complexity and structure of your application. If you are experienced you can of course integrate e.g. Generally, I don’t really know Xojo but a quick google search revealed that it is based on BASIC, right? I don’t think that there is any easy way to port such code to C++. As JUCE can be used to build both, the answer depends a bit on what you want to build. Reading this, I wonder what you are actually want to do? You talk about a standalone application in the first post but then mention a DAW in the second post which is obviously only needed if you want to run a plug-in. ![]() It also contains light and dark colour themes.I see tutorials where they have to build and load a DAW every time to view changes Sublime Text 3Ĭontains a syntax definition file to enable Roo syntax highlighting in Sublime Text 3. I also include SASS and CSS files to colour the code. These are detailed below: RainbowJS/Ĭontains a custom syntax definition for the Roo programming language to allow you to highlight Roo code on webpages using Craig Campbell's Rainbow javascript syntax highlighter. You'll notices that this repo has an extras/ folder which contains goodies additional to the source code. Simply launch this is Xojo 2019 Release 1.1 or later and you're good to go. This can be found in /binary project/roo-cli.xojo_binary_project. To simplify getting started with the project, I have also included the project saved in Xojo's binary file format. Or you can simply use the global quit statement. To quit a REPL session type CTRL-C or CTRL-D or CTRL-X (depending on your operating system). Whilst there is no interactive debugger for Roo (yet), roo does provide reasonably accurate and helpful error messages if a problem is encountered either during program lexing, parsing or execution. To run a script, simply type roo where script.roo is the full path to the script to run. It's worth noting that you don't have to terminate statements with semicolons a REPL session. This will give you a prompt and allow you to enter Roo code line by line and have it interpreted as you enter it. Once the roo interpreter is installed, you can start a REPL session by typing roo in the Terminal. The interpreter is written entirely in native Xojo code and no external plugins are required. They are not needed for you to build the app and will only generate an error for you.Īfter you've built the app, remember to place the roo executable in your $PATH (and make sure the dependency folder/files are in the same place). These are only there to help me when I build releases to publish on GitHub. You only need to do this once.Ĭomment out the contents of the PostBuildMac, PostBuildWin and PostBuildLinux IDE scripts in the Build Settings section of Xojo's navigator. If the Xojo IDE asks you for the location of the various Roo classes, simply navigate to them and select them. Since I maintain the Roo IDE as well I keep the actual classes in a subfolder of this repo and reference them from this project. This means that you can make changes to those classes and have them reflected in all of your projects which use them. Xojo provides a mechanism for making classes and modules external to a project. Number 3 above might require a little clarification. Resolve any missing Roo class dependencies. ![]() Launch the src/cli/roo.xojo_project file in Xojo.Clone the repo (or download it as a ZIP file).You can grab the required files from the releases page. I use a Mac and if I wasn't using Homebrew I would place roo and roo Libs/ in /usr/local/bin. ![]() I really admire the recipes on Ambitious Kitchen. (Gasp! Did Coconut Crumpet just say that?!) That is because the coconut flavour isn't strong enough for me to advertise this bread as having coconut.Īnd there you have it, a banana bread recipe that is definitely a keeper. Regarding the flavour, I just may use regular milk and more flax seeds to take out the coconut ingredients in the recipe. It's only half a tablespoon for the entire loaf! Usually I add 1 whole tablespoon to make the bread slightly fluffier. With just a touch of melted oil or butter, the risk of a gummy bread is much lower. It is perfectly fine to leave the recipe completely free of added fats but the result will be gummier. So one may wonder why oil is still needed when we have so much banana already. Pureed fruit is often used as a substitute for fat in baking. Thirdly is the extremely low added fat (I use the adjective added because flax seed has natural fat and so does shredded coconut). Large slices of Healthy Banana Walnut Bread If you're going to bake up some goodies, might as well ensure they are just sweet enough to taste different than sandwich bread. Anything more is too much, and anything less is not enough. Half a cup of any sweetener, especially white or brown sugar, is the maximum amount I'll ever use in one loaf or a dozen muffins. Secondly, and the most important to me, is the minimal sugar that is used. When made in an 8 inch loaf pan, the bread sticks out at least 1.5 inches out of the pan! Even when made with my dirt old baking powder. This recipe has to yield the tallest bread I've ever created. What makes this banana bread recipe so much better than the millions out there? First and foremost is the height of the finished product. So, with the bananas that have been sitting frozen in my freezer for months, I dedicate this beautiful banana bread to all 10 million of the minion fans out there. Evidently I seem to have some bias towards the combination of minions and bananas. Something about collecting bananas and running other minions over is so amusing to me. And I rarely ever play games, mainly because I'm terrible at them. Not only is the banana minion my favourite, but I've become addicted to playing Minion Rush on my phone. But my mother says I need to become more mature. A successful Coconut Crumpet feels happy about her accomplishment. Since then, I have dragged my parents to five different locations in search of the 'banana minion'. I was disappointed to find that my preferred minion toy was not available on the first trip to get a Happy Meal with Az. By the way, the hamburger is the 'healthiest' entree option, Happy Meal or not. The portion control and healthy options like milk and apples makes for a acceptable fast food meal. Thankfully, Happy Meals are not the worst thing to force down your throat and are fairly priced. The toys certainly do their job very well of luring children (or children at heart, ahem) into buying their food. It's extremely strange for me to want to visit Mc Donald's much less beg to go. Mc Donald's currently carries minion toys as part of the kids' Happy Meal.

On November 19, 2022, Twitter's new owner, Elon Musk, reinstated his account, although Trump has stated he will not use it in favor of his own social media, Truth Social. When Twitter banned Trump from the platform in January 2021 during the final days of his term, his handle had over 88.9 million followers. The White House said the tweets should be considered official statements. Over nearly twelve years, Trump tweeted around 57,000 times, including about 8,000 times during the 2016 election campaign and over 25,000 times during his presidency.

All Ways of Working PDUs count towards Project Management Professional ( PMP)® maintenance, even if they are in a subject that feels more aligned to a different certificate, like the scheduling or risk credentials. Ways of Working PDUs can apply to more than one of your certifications as long as the subject is relevant. Power Skills and Business Acumen PDUs count for every certification you hold. Remember to report PDUs against all your relevant certificates in the CCR. Make your PDUs do double duty supporting you for all your credentials! Simply do some professional development that earns you credit across your portfolio of certificates. That’s a huge bonus! You don’t have to earn brand new PDUs for each certification.

The tables below shows the different number of PDUs required for each certificate. The PDUs for every certification need to be made up of education undertaken in specific areas. If you hold a CAPM® certificate, you need to earn 15 PDUs every three years. If you hold a PMI-ACP ®, PMI-RMP ®, PMI-SP ® certification, you need to earn 30 PDUs in a three-year cycle. That can be timed as 20 PDUs every year or 60 PDUs in the last 3 months of the three year cycle as you panic and try to get them all in before your certification expires. If you hold a PMP ®, PgMP ®, PfMP ® or PMI-PBA ® certification, you need to earn 60 PDUs every three years.

Annuals, which typically dominate in early-successional habitats, are characterized by a faster relative growth rate than perennials and, therefore, a short exposure time, so that they are a spatiotemporally unpredictable resource for insects. Furthermore, the more widely distributed and abundant a plant is, the more insects it should encounter in its evolutionary history. Plant height is usually a surrogate for the complexity of the plant architecture and, generally, a well-known predictor of plant-insect ratios. Annuals have impoverished communities and both shoot length and abundance are positively correlated with insect diversity. The number of endophagous insect species associated with grass species can be predicted by (1) the annual-perennial dichotomy (annuals, in contrast to perennials, support almost no endophagous insects) (2) the mean shoot length and (3) the abundance of the host plant. The endophagous, mostly stem-boring herbivores belong primarily to the the Diptera (mainly Cecidomyiidae, Chloropidae, Agromyzidae), Hymenoptera (Cephidae, Eurytomidae), Lepidoptera (mainly Pyralidae, Noctuidae), Coleoptera (mainly Cerambycidae, Mordellidae, Chrysomelidae), and mites (Acari). Sap-feeders on grasses are Homoptera ( Auchenorrhyncha, Sternorrhyncha, Pseudococcidae), Heteroptera (mainly Miridae), and Thysanoptera. Specialization on grasses appears to be particularly important in grasshoppers, and their abundance in grasslands is high. Of the specialized grass chewers in Great Britain <2% are Coleoptera, 6% Lepidoptera, 6% Hymenoptera, and 41% Orthoptera (the grasshoppers). Grass foliage-chewing insects belong primarily to the Orthoptera, Lepidoptera, Coleoptera (mainly Chrysomelidae and Curculionidae), Hymenoptera (Tenthredinidae), and Phasmida. Which insect species attack grasses, and what are the typical plants of grasslands? Ectophages, which feed externally on leaf tissue by chewing, scraping, or sucking, are distinct from endophytic feeders, which include leafminers, gallers, and borers. The ways in which insect communities of grasslands are influenced will be the subject of the remainder of this article. Termites and ants are dominant groups in tropical and subtropical grasslands, some surface-dwelling predatory arachnids such as scorpions and solifugids are restricted to warm, arid soils, and cold tolerance limits the range of many species in arctic and antarctic conditions. Tropical grasslands and tundra tend to be somewhere in-between. Per square meter), whereas arid and semiarid steppe and desert soils, dominated by microfauna such as protozoans and nematodes, may have a biomass of only 1 g/m2. Chalk-rich temperate grasslands with abundant earthworm populations tend to support the highest faunal biomass (often >100 g fresh mass In contrast, tropical grasslands may contain over 200 plant species. Plant species richness, which determines much of the insect diversity, may be only 10 to 15 species in intensively managed and highly fertilized grasslands, but 50 to 70 in extensively managed and low-input temperate grasslands. ![]() Some marked differences are apparent between the plant-insect communities of temperate and tropical habitats. ![]() Plant and insect communities of grasslands greatly differ depending on climate, soil type, and management practices. Further features of grassland-specific insect communities include the dominance of species adapted to feed on grasses. Similarly, the litter layer of forests is larger and more heterogeneous, with a correspondingly richer decomposer community. ![]() Compared to forests, the structural complexity of the grassland vegetation is obviously simpler, so that the insect diversity is reduced. One temperate old-field grassland may be habitat for more than 1500 insect species, whereas cereal fields, which are monocultures of annual grasses, may contain 900 species. Grasslands are habitats for many insects and may harbor an extraordinarily species-rich community. ![]() The Upcoming Games page has been updated! Salt and Sanctuary (Switch – eShop) comes out on August 2nd in Europe and North America. Modes like permadeath, no blocking, and no rolling alter playstyles and keep Salt and Sanctuary fresh long after the credits roll. While playing as a different character build alone changes the gameplay entirely, optional challenge runs offer distinct new trials for players still hungering for battle after finishing the story. Multiple endings and New Game+ provide ample reasons to play again. Each harrowing skirmish rewards patience. Holy Prayers don’t have an element but offer defensive boosts. Magic wielders have their own tribulations: all of the games’ spells align with either Fire or Sky elements and casting too much of one causes an imbalance that damages the Saltborn. Every swing of the sword drains stamina, so calculated attacks often win out over desperate flails. A massive skill tree provides further options for progression.īattles play out in a tough-but-fair fashion. Sixteen weapon types and more than fifty sets of armor that both strengthen the Saltborn and visibly change their appearance can be upgraded with the right equipment. All character builds are worthy: a whip-wielding, crossbow-brandishing bandit and sorcerer wreathed in Fire and Sky magic have equal chances of survival. Hidden platforming abilities including air-dashing and wall-jumping help the Saltborn find and eradicate more than twenty horrifying bosses all drawn in Ska Studios’ stylized signature art style.ĭiscovering the truth behind this cursed land necessitates both a keen eye and a bloodlust, but all manner of implements of death await adventurers. Pressing on and cleaving through anyone or anything that rears its malformed head is the only way forward. Whether braving this alone or with a friend via local co-op, the customizable hero, known as the Saltborn, can only persevere by navigating this grim, forgotten bastion. Upon drifting onto the shore, the journey to broker peace dissolves into a struggle for survival on a treacherous island rife with undead. While sailing across a stormy sea to transport a princess and strike a truce between rival kingdoms, a calamitous encounter with a sinister abomination wrecks the player’s ship. For those of you interested in a physical copy of the game, the Salt and Sanctuary: Drowned Tome Edition will be released later this holiday season.

Alternate common names include Banks' black cockatoo, Banksian black cockatoo, or simply black cockatoo. The binomial combination had already been used by Carl Linnaeus for the lesser vasa parrot in 1758, and by Johann Friedrich Gmelin for the palm cockatoo in 1788 it was thus invalid even though both other species were already known by different names at the time. In 1827, Jennings proposed the name Psittacus niger for the bird. The change was first made by Anselme Gaëtan Desmarest in 1826. The red-tailed black cockatoo is the type species of the genus Calyptorhynchus, the name of which is derived from the Greek calypto-/καλυπτο- "hidden" and rhynchus/ρυγχος "beak". In 1994, an application to conserve Calyptorhynchus banksii as the scientific name was accepted by the ICZN. For several decades, Mathews' proposal was accepted by many authorities, although it was unclear whether the original Port Jackson reference had actually referred to the red-tailed black or, more likely, the glossy black cockatoo. For many years, the species was referred to as Calyptorhynchus magnificus, proposed by Gregory Mathews in 1927 as Shaw's name had predated Latham's 1790 description. ![]() Narrowly predating Latham, English naturalist George Shaw described Psittacus magnificus from a specimen collected somewhere in the Port Jackson (now Sydney) region. The red-tailed black cockatoo also has the distinction of being the first bird from Eastern Australia illustrated by a European, as a female, presumably collected at Endeavour River in north Queensland, was sketched by Banks' draughtsman Sydney Parkinson in 1770. The species complex was first described by the ornithologist John Latham in 1790 as Psittacus banksii, commemorating English botanist Sir Joseph Banks. Of the black cockatoos, the red-tailed is the most adaptable to aviculture, although black cockatoos are much rarer and much more expensive in aviculture outside Australia. Populations in southeastern Australia are threatened by deforestation and other habitat alterations. They are seed eaters and cavity nesters, and as such depend on trees with fairly large diameters, generally Eucalyptus. In the more northerly parts of the country, these cockatoos are commonly seen in large flocks. The species is usually found in eucalyptus woodlands, or along water courses. Although the more northerly subspecies are widespread, the two southern subspecies, the forest red-tailed black cockatoo and the south-eastern red-tailed black cockatoo are under threat. Five subspecies are recognised, differing chiefly in beak size. It is more common in the drier parts of the continent. Adult males have a characteristic pair of bright red panels on the tail that gives the species its name. The red-tailed black cockatoo ( Calyptorhynchus banksii) also known as Banksian- or Banks' black cockatoo, is a large black cockatoo native to Australia. |
