We now know that the explanation of isotopes is the reason why iodine has a lower mass number than tellurium, even though it has a higher proton number. Explanation of Tellurium and Iodine order.Therefore, Mendeleev swapped around these two elements to ensure elements were in groups with similar properties. However, Mendeleev saw that Iodine has similar properties to the elements in Tellurium’s group (7) such as fluorine, chlorine and bromine. Iodine has a lower atomic mass than Tellurium, therefore it should be placed before Tellurium in the periodic table. periodic table, in full periodic table of the elements, in chemistry, the organized array of all the chemical elements in order of increasing atomic number i.e., the total number of protons in the atomic nucleus. Iodine and Tellurium swapped positions.He rearranged these elements so that they would be placed in a group with similar properties. When Mendeleev organised elements in order of atomic mass, some elements did not fit the pattern of the group of increasing atomic mass. He did not stick to the strict order of arranging elements in order of increasing atomic mass.When these elements were discovered, his predictions were right and Mendeleev’s table was accepted by other scientists. The gaps existed in certain groups with particular characteristics, therefore Mendeleev was able to predict the properties of these undiscovered elements. Mendeleev acknowledged that all elements had not been discovered yet, therefore left gaps to be filled in once they had been discovered. So he arranged the elements in a table, with vertical columns known as groups and these groups had elements with similar properties. Mendeleev’s main focus was arranging the elements based on similarities of chemical and physical properties. ![]() This was a table of elements arranged according to atomic mass however there were many differences between Newland’s octaves and the Mendeleev’s periodic system. ![]() In 1869 Dimitri Mendeleev categorised the elements into ‘ Periodic System’. Furthermore, all elements in his octaves did not have similar properties for example in the 7th octave O (Oxygen a non-metal) and Fe (Iron a metal). However, many scientists did not accept Newland’s law of octaves because many new elements were still being discovered and did not fit in the table. Newland proposed that properties of every 8th element were similar for example Li (lithium) and Na (sodium). ![]() Newland arranged the discovered elements in order of atomic weight with H (Hydrogen) as the lowest then Li (Lithium) then Be (beryllium) and so on. Newland noticed that every 8th element had similar chemical properties. In 1864, an English scientist, John Newland proposed his ‘ law of octaves’ where he arranged the elements in order of their atomic mass. Below is a summary of how the periodic table has changed over time to form the periodic table we use today. The early periodic tables were arranged strictly by atomic weight as protons, neutrons and electrons had not been discovered yet. “Whereas the old design has a bit of the history and the story and the amazement that an atom in your little finger was once the very same atom that was in the tail of a dinosaur.Developing the Periodic Table (GCSE Chemistry) Developing the Periodic Table The Early Periodic Tableīy the 19th century scientists had discovered over 50 elements, many attempts had been made to put these elements into a logical order to reflect the similarities in their chemical properties. “That’s a very industrial perspective on chemistry,” Ms MacEoin said. The study of the periodic table in unit one of VCE chemistry would be replaced by “the study of metals, carbon compounds and polymers and how they can be recycled and repurposed in a circular economy”, the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority’s subject review states. ![]() Those atoms are the 118 elements on the periodic table,” Ms MacEoin, who is also the current president of teachers’ group the Chemistry Education Association, said of its proposed removal. Periodic Table Chemistry is for you, for geeks, for nerds, for science lovers, for chemists, and for mad geniuses. “All things are made of atoms, and chemistry is the study of atoms and how they go together. Experienced chemistry teacher Melissa MacEoin said the periodic table underpinned the entire study of chemistry and that cutting it from the subject’s study design would be “a bit like learning a language without first of all learning its alphabet so you can put it together”. ![]() Use Windows from Boot Camp in a virtual machine.Easily configure Windows for Productivity or Gaming.Use automatic Parallels Tools installation for many operating systems.Select automatically detected operating system installers from Downloads and Desktop folders.Install virtual machines from an ISO image, app, USB, CD, or DVD.Use Express Installation to fully automate Windows installation and user account setup.Activate Windows automatically by specifying a license key before installation.Download and install Windows automatically in one click.*.Use Sign in with Apple for Parallels account registration and sign-in.Choose your View Make Windows invisible while still using its applications in Coherence™ Mode, or if you’re new to Mac, you can set Windows to occupy your entire screen, so it looks just like it would if you were using a Windows PC.Play your favorite classic Windows-only games on a Mac.

Have fun searching for the reason why your driver is crashing :P ![]() You may use Skype or Teamspeak where your audio interface is set as a device. The problem: even if you are using a low latency ASIO driver, Windows will still see your audio interface and use WDM drivers to utilise it.īelieve me, the solution is universal for any DAW and works not only with OBS, but also with any other software. If this gets interrupted, the driver will usually stop working or it will kill the application that is using it. This stuff is based on low latency drivers and they usually work only with 1 application, giving it an exclusive access. What happens right now, is pretty simple but deadly for any DAW: You can always set your desktop audio to 0% in the main window if you dont want your system audio and background software screaming while recording/streaming. OBS > Settings >Audio > select in the top 2 lines your onboard soundcard. Then make sure that OBS is using your audio gear for the DAW. It may vary, because i have Windows 10 right now, but i remember this being the same stuff on Windows 8 & 8.1. Then you go to properties of each used device > advanced > disable Exclusive Mode there. The "default" settings under Windows are just normal audio settings, you rightclick on your audio icon in the taskbar, go to playback and recording devices and rightclick all your stuff that is used by ProTools and make sure that they are not selected as default devices or default communication devices. ![]() This is a mess, but this is the only way to make sure that OBS is not gonna mess around with your audio gear that is used in ProTools or any other DAW.ĭo this, if it doesnt help - give me a couple of days, i have to look into ProTools under Windows to tell you more about it, i have no idea about this DAW and how the audio system is built. Remeber that people would not hear what you have in your Preview/Cue output in ProTools, because you are capturing only the master output.Īnd also remeber to remove the "Default device" and "Default communication device" from your HD Omni audio interface. Then you route your master out from ProTools via cable to the line in on the second soundcard and you are ready to go. Leave the Desktop Audio Device at default, there is no way in OBS to disable it. Then you go to settings>audio>Micropone/Auxiliary Audio Device and set your line in on your onboard (or second external soundcard) as your input. If not (would be really strange but anyway) - get one, PCIe or USB, doesnt matter - but it should have a line in input. You have a basic soundcard built into your motherboard? If yes - use it. You have to split the software at a hardware level, that means 2 different soundcards, in this case your HD Omni audio interface (and whatever is attached to it) is ONLY for ProTools, dont even try to hijack this - it will result in high latency in the best case and software crash/bluescreen in the worst case. ![]() It comes from Brand New’s 2003 album Deja Entendu, which is an album that has helped me through some hard times, and holds a very special place in my life. This is an exceptionally sad, well-written song about death told through the lens of a shipwreck. Now, I want to put a disclaimer here because I’m sure that most people reading this have never heard of Brand New or “Play Crack The Sky”. Listen to “Captain Kennedy” by Neil Young below. None of that signature Old Black guitar sound here, but fantastic in its own right. Neil plays and sings in a somewhat jarring way that contributes to that uncertain “lost at sea” vibe that this song curates. It chronicles the story of a mariner who runs a freighter in the islands. “Captain Kennedy” is a haunting song that was reportedly written about Neil Young’s seafaring grandfather, Captain Louis Kennedy. Hitchhiker was released in 2017 as part of Neil’s archival release project. The story goes that the album was initially scrapped by the label, and “Captain Kennedy” instead made its debut on 1980’s Hawks & Doves. It was during that time that Young recorded the formerly lost album Hitchhiker (1976), which is where the song “Captain Kennedy” was first heard. I heard a story from an old captain who was in the Caribbean with Neil back in the late 70s and recalls Neil playing and writing music on board at night, with the whole ship listening in delight. Ragland, and did much sailing with her over the years. His music often referenced nautical themes, and in fact for nearly 30 years he owned the 101 foot Baltic Trader W.N. Neil Young is no stranger to the sea, nor of writing songs about the sea. I can attest to the live version being fantastic, and you might just find yourself taking your very own journey through the cosmic seas if you do happen to indulge. Since I personally recommend a live take on “Lost Sailor”, and especially with its paired with “Saint of Circumstance”, I’ve included streams of both the Go To Heaven studio cut and what Headyversion considers the best-ever live version of “Lost Sailor” > “Saint of Circumstance”, the one from 10/10/82, below. It’s certainly not one of your happy-go-lucky sunshine in the afternoon sailing songs, but rather a song about the sea and what its dark underbelly can do to you. This is just one of those bands that captures the energy much better in the live environment.Īs the title suggests, “Lost Sailor” tells the story of a sailor lost at sea, experiencing the horrors of the ocean and finding himself at its mercy. As we know, the Grateful Dead are not exactly known for their studio cuts, but that doesn’t mean the songs don’t hold their own. “Lost Sailor” comes from the Dead’s 1980 album Go To Heaven, which was not well-received at the time of its release but has since held its own as one of their stronger studio records. ![]() ![]() Naturally the Grateful Dead have made their way onto my website again, this time on a list of sailing music. See a live video of the performance below. Jack & Dave make for a nice combination, and Tim Reynolds on guitar really solidifies this choice. “A Pirate Looks At Forty” is one of a few Jimmy Buffett songs that hasn’t been totally spoiled by my day job on the water, and the live rendition done by Jack Johnson & Dave Matthews from the Kokua Festival album is in my opinion even better than the original. I was hesitant to include any Jimmy Buffett songs on this list, because I’m honestly pretty tired of hearing Jimmy Buffet songs on boats these days, but I couldn’t bring myself to leave this one off. Jack Johnson, Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds – “A Pirate Looks At Forty” (Jimmy Buffet Cover) That’s not how sailing works, remember?įind below our list of the 10 best songs about sailing and the sea. We’ve done our best to avoid those songs with this list, but we can’t promise that we stuck to our self-imposed rules very strictly. ![]() Some of this music, namely the stuff from the fun-loving easygoing side of things, has managed to become corny over the years due to being overplayed at beachside resorts everywhere. Many songwriters have touched upon the subject of sailing and the sea, both from the easygoing, fun-loving side, and from the dark, deceptive underbelly. Where there is peace, though, there is also the mighty strength of the sea that can bite back at you when you least expect it, throwing your boat and your life together into chaos. There’s something about sailing that can make one feel comfortable with everything happening in their lives and in the world, at least for a little while. ![]() Volunteers gathered up the sea turtles and took them to the South Padre Island Convention Cenre. The green sea turtles love the shallow, warm waters of Laguna Madre and the seagrass beds, but the storm left thousands stunned. Several members were assisting cold-stunned sea turtles down the road at South Padre Island. ![]() The staff also wasn't just assisting animals at the zoo. We don't know how to drive on icy roads or in snow," said Garza Galvan. Director of marketing Cynthia Garza Galvan said only the animal care staff were required to come to work and the rest of the staff worked remotely. Like the zoo, they were dealing with the blackout, lack of heat, and some didn't water. The storm did more than affect the animals, employees were also hit hard by the storm. "They know exactly what to do with a blanket." "There were a lot of caped crusaders running around," she said. Adams said dozens upon dozens of blankets were given to the apes and they wrapped themselves up. The Great Apes - gorillas, chimpanzees, and orangutans - don't like the cold and, just like people, they like to bundle up. Not all of the animals are in danger because of the weather, but other precautions needed to be made to keep them warm. It looks like a parking lot inside of there," Adams said. Adams said approximately 60 tortoises are now in the herpetarium, and they will stay there until the temperatures stabilize. Dozens of tortoises live in outside habitats and all of them were moved into the reptile house. One of the largest animal moves at the zoo involved its tortoise population. ![]() Gladys Porter Staff move animals from original habitat to a warm building/Courtesy Gladys Porter Zoo When the power would come on, the animals would be brought to their original habitats to eat, but when the power went off, they would again be packed up and taken to the clinic, where they would stay overnight.

If you are not familiar with fence installation, then a plumb bob will help you make sure that your fence is installed correctly. How do you use a plumb bob for a fence?Ī plumb bob is a very useful tool when it comes to fences. This can be used to make sure that a surface is level or to find the exact center of a circle. The weight pulls the string taut and the string points directly down. The most common type of plumb line is a weight on a string that is allowed to hang freely. How do plumb lines work?Ī plumb line is a line that is perpendicular to a surface. The cord should be long enough to reach the ground from the point where the plumb bob is suspended.

The obvious solution here is proper organization and document tracking. Also, without insurance documentation or the right contractor license, there can be legal issues or fines on the docket. For GC’s, tracking down pay apps, lien waivers, and compliances takes time away from more pressing tasks.

Just a few of the documents that if lost can cause problems are: One receipt hiding under the seat can cost them quite a bit of time and money. Contractors that use the dashboard of their work truck as a filing cabinet are definitely the weakest link in the chain. While it may not sound like the greatest danger, missing necessary paperwork is a serious construction risk. Keeping up with paperwork on a construction project is a full-time job.

As delays are often the result of other risks on this list, getting ahead of them and maintaining an open line of communication between the subs and project management is one of the only ways to minimize their effect on the project. While timelines and schedules are good guides, they rarely take all of the variables and possibilities into account. Without a doubt, delays are one of the most common risks involved in construction. Pushing back the delivery date on projects affect almost everyone on the job. Recognizing these construction risks is good practice for contractors of any experience. In order to reduce the chance of something going wrong, it’s important to recognize these potential outcomes and take the appropriate steps to prevent them.The following are some of the most common challenges that contractors, subs, and even suppliers face. These all come with an assortment of different construction risks that can halt a job or even terminate it completely, if not properly prepared for.

But no, I was actually right because apparently, and according to the light novel, Entoma and Mare’s original goal was to kill all the humans in the mansion, recover important documents, valuables, and then retreat to Nazarick undetected. What’s the deal with the mansion mission: It was weird to me that they didn’t manage to evacuate before Blue Rose arrived but then I was thinking maybe it was on purpose so that Demiurge and Momon can come into play. To be honest she reminded me of D’Vorah, a character from Mortal Kombat X who has similar powers like hers. Also, her true form is kind of grotesque as well. She obviously doesn’t even stand a chance against Demiurge (who happens to be the weakest of the guardians) but again I am intrigued to know more about this character.Įntoma the cute bug maid: I was certain that we will get to see her in action in this season and I have to say I find her powers quite interesting as an Entomancer.

Who would dare to say this kind of thing when Momonga is around? And then they question Sebas loyalty, the one and only bro. I wonder why the author even bothered giving them names if they were that easy to beat… When that poor guy said that he is the Undead Lord, he was crushed in seconds. With only four punches, Malmuist, Edstorm, Peshurian, and Davernoch were goners. Sebas has mastered his punching techniques: When he was coming up with a plan of action with Climb and Unglaus he just said: ‘I will deal with the six members of Eight Fingers, you go save Tuare,’ like it’s no big deal for him. Suddenly, Momon interrupts their battle asking as to which one of them in his foe in order to start fighting them. After an intense battle, Entoma falls but Demiurge comes in to fight Evileye. Mare and Entoma are in Hilma’s mansion where they succeed in capturing her but Entoma stays behind which results in her bumping into Gagaran, Tia, and Evileye. Climb and Unglaus happened to be sent to the same location where Sebas was headed so they join forces and the mission seems to succeed flawlessly. ![]() We then get to see the royal forces along with Blue Rose where they also get ready to invade the Eight Finger’s hideouts. Sebas and Solution are sent to where Tuare is held a prisoner in order to free her and Mare with Entoma are sent to one of the other locations. Demiurge divides the team into eight squads where each team will invade each of the Eight Fingers’ hideouts. The Guardians of Nazarick gather at the mansion where Sebas and Solution were based to put Demiurge’s plan into action.
