Boulder opal occurs as in-fillings of cracks or voids usually in ironstone boulders. It mainly occurs in specific locations over a wide area of Western Queensland. Often just a thin vein of precious opal is present. Nevertheless, white opals can still be absolutely magnificent in colour if a good quality stone is found.īoulder Opal Specimen by Dieter Rosenkranz Australiaīoulder is a variety of precious opal that has the host rock forming naturally as part of the gem. White opal is more common and because of its body tone, generally does not show the colour as well as black opal. Some people refer to these as "white" although this expression should only be used where the body colour is very milky. White opals with a base tone ranging from colourless to medium grey are called light opal. Easily distinguished by the blackness of the background "body tone" or body colour. The term 'black opal' does not mean that the stone is completely black (a common mistake), it simply means the stone has a dark body tone in comparison to a white opal. ![]() credit : Nur Rachman Effendiīlack Opal is the most valued of Opals and comes mainly from Lightning Ridge. There are other kinds - fire opal, hyalite, water opal, hydrophane and honey opal. There is black opal, white opal, crystal opal and jelly opal. There are many different types of natural opals. Opal is the national gemstone of Australia. When it is transparent or very translucent, and the colour clarity is sharp, it is often referred to as crystal opal. Transparency - Opal of any body colour will be opaque, translucent or transparent. The variety of natural opal is determined by the two characteristics of body tone and transparency.īody Tone - The base tones of light, dark and black opal range from colourless, white, through the various shades of grey, to black. Precious Opal - is opal which exhibits the phenomenon known as play of colour, which is produced by the diffraction of white light through a micro-structure of orderly arrayed spheres of silica.The internal structure of precious opal makes it diffract light depending on the conditions in which it formed, it can take on many colors.

To make installing Magento easier, keep our guide to hand (we’ve made this super simple to follow, and tried to demystify some of the developer language Magento uses). Even WooCommerce, another open-source platform, makes life a lot easier, with a lot more hand-holding through the initial stages. When you compare that with the simple, two minute signup of ecommerce platforms like Shopify and BigCommerce, you can see why Magento scores so poorly. Not hard as in impossible hard, but hard as in ‘we had to write a whole other article about how to install Magento’ kind of hard. Installing Magento without any real technical experience is hard. Once you’ve installed it, the backend is pretty standard, and fairly user-friendly – the key thing to note being ‘once you’ve installed it’. ![]() This is the main reason we don’t recommend it for beginners, or small stores.

On the Nest app: Tap on the Thermostat circle > Tap the Schedule tab at the bottom of the display. These tips are all about scheduling the Nest Learning Thermostat so to make it work for you and your home. These are some of the indoor security cameras that are worth your time.$228 at Amazon (US) Nest Thermostat scheduling tips and tricks There are plenty of internet-connected cameras on the market, but there are only a few that really stand out in terms of quality, security, and - let's be real - coolness. Indoor security cameras you should check out In that way, a security cam is certainly a worthwhile investment. In the event thieves successfully steal from your home, you can use footage from your indoor security camera to help in any investigation that might take place. Most crimes are that of opportunity - a crook who's suddenly realized they're on camera is likely to run away the moment they're confronted without committing further offenses. If your house is filled with lots of valuable items and/or you live in an area that sees more crime than usual, an indoor security camera can give you the peace of mind you need to feel anxiety-free whilst you're away from home. Do you have loads of valuables or live in a particularly needly area? Pets and indoor security cameras are a match made in heaven. If I'm working in my office, which has no clear view of the back yard, I can check the Nest Cam from my desk to see if they're standing beside the back door waiting to be let in. It's also a great way to check - after they've gone outside for a restroom break - when they're ready to come back indoors. If they're lounging on the sofa, I can perk 'em up with a quick word or two about how adorable they are. If they're up to no good (read: barking at delivery trucks), I can speak to them over the camera and ask them to quiet down. It was an issue at first, but once I got it figured out, I found being able to check in on my puppers while I'm away to be the single most important benefit the Nest Cam provides.Īny time I need a pick-me-up or my puppers cross my mind, I just open the Nest app and can instantly see what they're up to (they typically hang out in our living room). I mentioned how my pets kept triggering false positives for my Nest Cam. In other words, do everything in your power to keep your internet-connected devices locked up tight! Do you have pets? Set strong, hard-to-guess passwords and make sure your home WiFi network is equally protected. ![]() When you set up an indoor security camera, don't stick to any default login values. Any internet-connected device is ultimately susceptible to an attack, but you're more protected using well-known, higher quality (and typically higher priced) devices than you are using random twenty dollar cameras you can buy on Amazon. Let me be clear: Something like this - hacking your camera to view your house or create a botnet - is far more common in generic cameras that feature little to no built-in security. With an internet-connected camera, though, you must always consider the possibility that someone could gain access to your camera and use it for their own ulterior purposes or to view what's going on inside your home. So the last thing you'd want to do is introduce a new way for malicious folks to gain access to your home. When you add a security camera to your home, you're looking to improve security and safety. ![]() 5/21/2023 0 Comments Share code atlauncher![]() Remove self-promotion from game client to reduce fingerprinting by in #606.Remove references to legacy Minecraft accounts by in #531. ![]() Remove unneeded build files by in #519.Fix issue with Solder.cf Technic packs by in #592. ![]() Fix toolbar disappearing in a certain circumstance by in #577.Fix icons not showing in some FTB modpacks by in #564.Hide temporary directory inside instances directory by in #547.Fix website link in CurseForge modpacks by in #545.Fix missing screenshots in screenshot manager by in #540.Fix missing translations when switching languages by in #539.Fix graphical issue when moving toolbars by in #529.Added and fixed mnemonics by in #480 and in #503.Always build iconfix as static library by in #477.Improve compile parameters by in #616 #620.Switch to a better CurseForge icon by in #612.Various improvements to ATLauncher support by in #605.Improve behavior when multiple mod loaders are in use by in #597.Switch to new CurseForge API Key by in #557.Make profile selection menu scrollable by in #546.Speedup automatic builds by in #510 #614.Refactor launcher code by in #486 #520.Bump Qt requirement to 5.12 by in #127.Allow changing CurseForge api key settings by in #607.Support Mojang's new split natives by in #594.Quilt mod metadata support by in #567 and in #590.Modrinth modpack support by and in #565.Add instance overrides for miscellaneous settings by in #560.Add support for paste.gg, hastebin and mclo.gs paste services by in #554.Add option to always hide Java setup wizard by in #511.Add PolyMC icon as instance icon by in #498.Allow changing metadata-server settings by in #425.Support ATLauncher share codes by in #408. ![]() Initially this release should have included a workaround for download issues with CurseForge mods and modpacks, but we were contacted by CurseForge to remove our workaround.

To install JRE onto your PC, you need to know the system type of your device: either 32-bit or 64-bit. How do I install the Java Runtime Environment? The JRE needs the JVM to provide the environment so that codes can be processed. The JRE is a consolidated tool that is made of two distinct aspects that are used together to run encrypted Java programs. The class libraries are present within the JRE to assist the JVM in loading, verifying, and executing the codes. The Java Runtime Environment is comprised of the Java Virtual Machine and class libraries. ![]() The JVM provides the environment necessary for code executions. The Java Virtual Machine is included in the Java Runtime Environment package because the JRE software uses the JVM to run compiled codes. To allow the Java Runtime Environment to run codes, the Java Development Kit includes debuggers that test and find errors in the written language as well as the Java Compiler to compile the codes. Both the JRE and JVM are located within the JDK along with development tools. The Java Development Kit is equipped with the mechanisms necessary to convert the Java source code into formats that the JRE and JVM can implement. The Java Runtime Environment edition does not include the development tools that are needed to create Java programs. Two additional platforms that were created by Oracle are the Java Development Kit and the Java Virtual Machine: the JDK and JVM. Developed and released by Oracle, the freeware has been specifically created for Java content. To run apps written in the Java programming language, people need to have the app version installed on their computer. ![]() ![]() Layered on top of operating systems, the JRE runs Java applications by supplying the class libraries and environment.

The OPF file, traditionally named content.opf, houses the EPUB book's metadata, file manifest, and linear reading order. This is accomplished by two XML files with the extensions. The OPF specification's purpose is to " the mechanism by which the various components of an OPS publication are tied together and provides additional structure and semantics to the electronic publication". ![]() Īn example skeleton of an XHTML file for EPUB looks like this: However, reading systems are not required to provide the fonts necessary to display every Unicode character, though they are required to display at least a placeholder for characters that cannot be displayed fully. This is to support international and multilingual books. Unicode is required, and content producers must use either UTF-8 or UTF-16 encoding. For a table of all required mimetypes, see Section 1.3.7 of the specification. Other media types are allowed, but creators must include alternative renditions using supported types. ĮPUB also requires that PNG, JPEG, GIF, and SVG images be supported using the mimetypes image/png, image/jpeg, image/gif, image/svg+xml. The mimetype for CSS documents in EPUB is text/css. Font-embedding can be accomplished using the property, as well as including the font file in the OPF's manifest (see below). Custom properties include oeb-page-head, oeb-page-foot, and oeb-column-number. This specialized syntax requires that reading systems support only a portion of CSS properties and adds a few custom properties. Styling and layout are performed using a subset of CSS 2.0, referred to as OPS Style Sheets. The mimetype for XHTML documents in EPUB is application/xhtml+xml. There are, however, a few restrictions on certain elements. This is different from previous versions (OEBPS 1.2 and earlier), which used a subset of XHTML. Open Publication Structure 2.0.1 Īn EPUB file uses XHTML 1.1 (or DTBook) to construct the content of a book as of version 2.0.1. Finally, the files are bundled in a zip file as a packaging format. XML is used to create the document manifest, table of contents, and EPUB metadata. ĮPUB internally uses XHTML or DTBook (an XML standard provided by the DAISY Consortium) to represent the text and structure of the content document, and a subset of CSS to provide layout and formatting.
5/21/2023 0 Comments Elizabeth harvest![]() ![]() Rachel Zeffira is a talented oboe player, soprano soloist and multi instrumentalist known for her work with the Victoria Symphony Orchestra and with Faris Badwan (The Horrors) in Cat’s Eyes. This is the standard retail variant pressed on clear vinyl. The vinyl is housed in a deluxe spined sleeve with beautiful artwork put together by Marc Bessant, and comes complete with printed insert and digital download card. Other characters feature yet more experimental themes, where pieces were chopped, rebuilt and manipulated. Erik Satie’s sarabande becomes an underlying musical theme, which gradually becomes more unhinged as the score progresses. Zeffira’s Elizabeth Harvest score contains elements of all of her musical influences, from her choral and orchestral arranging to her oboe solos and contemporary songwriting. ![]() The film requires a lot of attention, and various iterations of Elizabeth are always trying to gum tab A of exposition to tab B of understanding to make a model of the house – which perhaps makes it more of an exercise is playing with the primal story than exploring its implications … though it’s also an entry in a current cycle of perhaps-topical films in which narcissist bullying blowhards are given complete control of others (usually women) and have to be coped with, got around, fought off, or got rid of for civilisation to resume.In stock & Shipping now - Rachel Zeffira’s (Cat’s Eyes) score to Sebastian Gutierrez’s ‘Elizabeth Harvest’ It’s great-looking, and confidently melodramatic in pitch – with the always value-for-money Hinds doing a great deal with the sleekly loathsome fatal man, who has a splendidly monstrous late-in-the-film rant that expresses the horribly perverse thrill he has discovered while toiling away Frankenstein fashion on a familiar science project. ![]() Even the diffident Oliver gets a turn at playing lead, when Henry can’t take part in one run-through. The cycle continues, with a ‘five years earlier’ stretch that shows why Gugino (bidding to be a genre icon in a varied range of macabre projects) took what seems at first to be a stooge part. But Gutierrez has been playing a long game, and – six weeks later – the story starts over, with an identical Elizabeth going through much the same fairytale nightmare but with different angles, more ominous signposting, a science fiction angle, and a steep learning curve that lets Lee show off more backbone and exhibit a wider acting range than expected. It might just be that the bride suffers from a form of partial amnesia which has blanked the old, old story out of her mind, but of course she ventures into the mad science version of Bluebeard’s stash of dead wives … and Henry comes after her with a machete.Īt this point, it seems that the film might have run out of steam – and supermodel Lee (whose CV includes stuff like The Neon Demon and Mad Max Fury Road) has been giving such a listless performance is so thin a protagonist role that we’d be grateful to see her hacked up and buried in the garden. Henry shows Elizabeth around the castle, which has all the wardrobes, rooms, art and wine cellars a girl could dream of … but there’s one frosted-glass-doored chamber in the cellar Henry asks her not to go into, though the touch of her thumb will get her access and he happens to be going away for a sudden work trip. At hand are sinister attendants Claire (Carla Cugino), a sexier Mrs Danvers, and Oliver (Matthew Beard), a blind flower arranger. ![]() Narrator Elizabeth (Abbey Lee), a fragile young bride, is carried over the threshold of an isolated moderne mansion by her wealthy scientist new husband Henry Kollenberg (Ciaran Hinds), who lectures her about the Rape of the Sabine Women and Erik Satie’s religious beliefs, and cuts off her underwear on their rapturous wedding night. There’s nothing like stating your influences right out of the gate: writer-director Sebastian Gutierrez blatantly frames Elizabeth Harvest as a modernised take on the tale of Bluebeard, with references to the work of Alfred Hitchcock (ooh, Rebecca) and Brian DePalma (yay, splitscreen!).
