Carl harnesses them – at first they nearly fly off without him – but then he has one by his side at Ellie’s funeral. ![]() The balloons as a motif throughout this sequence.The repetition of the couple climbing up the hill creates an emotional impact once Ellie collapses.The film uses a number of repeated images to show the progression of time: This overtonal montage is so effective that it functions almost as its own short film. Within the space of four minutes, a montage shows Carl & Ellie’s married life, from their wedding to Ellie’s death. The “Married Life” montage from the beginning of Up is a montage example that lives long in the memory of many audiences.

![]() To effectively break down silos in the workplace, we first need to define the problem of silo mentality and how it translates into the business environment. This is another clear signal to organizations to focus more efforts on preventing and breaking down team silos. Moreover, it caused a substantial decrease in synchronous communication among information workers. ![]() However, this type of structure fails to meet the demands of the modern business environment.Īs the latest research on The effects of remote work on collaboration among information workers shows, the sudden transition to company-wide remote work resulted in increased siloed behavior. On the one hand, centralized organizational structures are essentially necessary, in terms of more focused decision-making. The more vibrant markets require higher flexibility and efficiency. The problem only gets worse as the organizations are moving towards fast-paced global markets. This caused major collaboration, productivity, and general organizational obstacles.Īs a 2016 survey by McKinsey finds, executives categorize silo mentality as the number one stumbling block to a functional digital culture. The same type of mindset took root in organizations and businesses around the world. ![]() It’s not particularly smart to be the jack of all trades, and so on. That is the safest and fastest way to succeed. You were told to pick your lane and stay focused on that one particular area of expertise. We’ve all been conditioned to acquire some form of silo mentality from the moment we stepped out into early adulthood.

The total population is estimated at 7 to 11 million people. For comparison, in the Mediterranean, the Egyptian were building pyramids from 3000 BC.Īt the 8 th century, the Mayan civilization had an area of around 324 000 km² (125 000 sq mi) and had impressive cities, like Tikal with its 50 000 inhabitants. Indeed, the Olmecs were building pyramids as early as 1000 BC. This is much later than the first pyramid of Mesoamerica. The first Mayan pyramid only appears at 300 BC. With settlements of the first cities, like Tikal in 600 BC. The Mayan civilization started around 600 BC. The Maya still speak today the language of their ancestors : the Mayan language (which is composed of 28 different dialects). They are mainly living in little villages relatively isolated from the main roads. The Maya peopleĪD 900 is the end of the Mayan civilization, but the Maya people still live. Then for an unknown reason their civilization collapsed and the Maya scattered. During their golden age, they have built big cities. The golden age of the Maya is located between AD 250 and AD 900. The beginning of the Mayan civilization is usually set at 600 BC and the end at AD 900. Their civilization lasted for a very long period of time of 15 centuries. When did the Mayan civilization begin and end? The most important of this independent cities were:īecause of this, the Mayan civilization cannot be considered as an empire because it had never been unified politically. Each of them had its own king and could dominate other, more little, cities. Indeed, the Mayan civilization was composed of several independent cities. ![]() It is important to note that Calakmul was not the capital city of the Maya. This ruins includes temples, pyramids, palaces, … Why is Mayan civilization not considered an empire? This area corresponds to the heart of the Mayan civilization. This area included the Yucatan Peninsula ( Mexico) and extended to the mountains of Guatemala and El Salvador and covered Belize and part of Honduras.Īn important quantity of Mayan ruins has been discovered at the border between Mexico and Guatemala. The ancient Mayan city of Calakmul, located in the middle of the Yucatan Peninsula, was also located in the middle of the Mayan territory. The Mayan civilization occupied a wide territory in the southeast of current Mexico and the north of Central America. For centuries, this civilization was remained forgotten before it was discovered again at the end of the 19 th century. They couldn’t believe that the indigenous of this region (Maya) were descendant of such a prestigious civilization. So when the Spanish conquistadors discovered this part of the word in the 16 th century, the Mayan civilization had already disappeared and they found the ruins of huge cities with pyramids. For unknown reasons their civilization collapsed, but the Mayan people haven’t disappeared and are still living region today. The Mayan civilization covered 15 centuries, from 600 BC until AD 900. This Mesoamerican civilization is nowadays well known for its pyramids, its big cities, its calendar… But for centuries it had totally disappeared under the vegetation, before it was discovered again at the end of the 19th century. ![]() Until the moment of Cuomo’s termination from the cable news station, he and CNN had expressed a “family first, job second” rationale. Lemon also came up in the staged attack of Empire star Jussie Smollett, when the actor testified at trial that he received a text from Lemon warning him that his decision not to hand his phone records over to detectives had triggered an investigation. Lemon’s accuser, ex-bartender Dustin Hice, made the claims on the Megyn Kelly Show this week. Fellow star Don Lemon, whose primetime hour came after Cuomo’s, has been accused of sexual harassment in a bar three years ago. It was a remarkable end to what had always appeared a chummy relationship between the star and his employer, who had seemed firm in backing him. Cuomo is understood to have hired LA attorney Bryan Freedman, and CNN is working with litigator Daniel Petrocelli. ![]() The network hit back, calling the accusations “patently false” and illustrated why he had been fired “for violating our standards and practices, as well as his lack of candor”.ĬNN then announced it would resist paying out $18m remaining on Cuomo’s four-year contract, a deal that amounted to $25,000 a night for an hour-long primetime segment. “There were no secrets about this, as other individuals besides Mr Cuomo can attest,” a Cuomo spokesman told the Wall Street Journal last weekend. But the scandal has also placed CNN in the crosshairs after Cuomo accused his boss, network president Jeff Zucker, of knowing about his involvement in trying to manage his brother’s scandal. ![]() Upon saving and closing this file, git will go to work.

Unfortunately, the real world is rarely ideal. In many ways, the process we previously followed is ideal we didn't have to do any work, git handled everything for us! In the previous article, we used rebase to bring upstream changes into our branch, but we didn't manipulate any commits in that process. Interactive mode allows the programmer to influence how rebase executes. Why is it called the interactive mode? Glad you asked. Running git rebase -i invokes a rebase in interactive mode. This article will provide a glimpse into more powerful applications of the command. If you're unfamiliar with rebase, I'd give the previous article a look before reading this one. It is my preferred method of organizing code changes good organization makes git a more powerful tool. I'm talking using git rebase in the optional interactive mode. Choosing to rebase in this way allows me to convey the purpose and reasoning behind commits with clarity. In this article, I'm going to explain a more intimidating application of git rebase. There I tried to ensure that anyone could glean the purpose and basic application of git rebase. Recently (not that recently), I wrote an article explaining the oft-misunderstood git command: git rebase. ![]() Would you give away thousands of copies of a game (or extra content for a game) away to a community that complains all the time instead of giving useful feedback? It only takes a few moments of your time. Maybe you think the graphics are a little dated and are in need of re skinning, or maybe you've just had enough of the genre and want to see something different or something with more originality? Giving such feedback instead of saying nothing or just saying this game is rubbish or good may bring more developers to the site, which could mean more and better games. ![]() For example, you could suggest extra content such as better or more original mini games, or a level editor that you would like to see that would make it more appealing to you. What improvements would change your opinion? There are thousands of subscribers to the game giveaway of the day every weekend which makes this an ideal forum for giving developers ideas as to what their consumers (i.e you) would like to see in a game. ![]() If you don't like this genre at all, please explain why. Whether you like or dislike Turtix 2: Rescue Adventures please give some feedback about your opinion of today's game giveaway, for example, what you liked or disliked about the game, and how it could be improved from your point of view. I've installed both and playing them, they are exactly the same, so I presume the 2 refers to the fact that Turtix: Rescue Adventures is the second in the Turtix themed games? I think Turtix: Rescue Adventures and Turtix 2: Rescue Adventures are the same game, they have just been labelled differently by different game houses. The installed game says it's Turtix: Rescue Adventures, but this is Turtix 2 (at least the same game as Big Fish purport to be Turtix 2: Rescue Adventures. It's a side scrolling puzzle platformer suitable for all ages. It's the sequel to Turtix, which we received earlier this month (5th February).

All comments not specifically about today's game giveaway will be judged by the moderator and if deemed not appropriate, will be deleted with no explanation. But I’m not in the habit of paying to “beta test” a game that clearly needs some more QA.Please only post comments about today's game giveaway other comments either inappropriate, or not about today's game will be deleted at the moderator or administrators discretion however a little light banter among community members and with the moderator to keep this a friendly place to visit is acceptable and welcomed. If they issue an update, it’s possible I’ll re-purchase Turtix in the future and see if it works. To be fair, it’s entirely possible this was an isolated problem - and I would have possibly rated the game higher if I truly believed it was - but after un-installing and re-installing the game, and following Alawar’s troubleshooting steps, the fact that even THEY couldn’t figure out why their own game was broken ultimately made the 2-star rating justified in my opinion. Unfortunately it seems Alawar didn’t do enough testing, or simply doesn’t know enough about developing on OS X to deliver a complete gaming experience. It’s a shame - Turtix had a lot of potential and I was having a great time unwinding at the end of my day by playing it. ![]() Their only solution was to ask Apple for a refund, which is really a cop out and no solution at all. After far too much back-and-forth with their support, Alawar emailed me and admitted they had no idea why the game was broken and offered no help in fixing it, nor any promise of a future update that would correct the issue. Not wanting my enjoyable gaming experience ruined, I contacted the developer, Alawar Entertainment. The boss was frozen in place and would not move and could not be attacked or interacted with. I say “would” because, in my experience, the game became unplayable upon reaching the third boss (ie. The soundtrack is a bit repetetive, as is the platforming action after a while, but if you enjoy an easy-to-play platformer for those casual gaming sessions, Turtix would fit the bill. Turtix is a super-cute basic platformer with pleasing graphics, decently challenging enemies and smart level design. ![]() It is hard to say how long it might be before this kind of test becomes widely available, the researchers said. “A device dedicated to implementing our method should be built for this purpose,” said Nehorai. Findings indicate preterm birth is an abnormal physiological condition, not just a pregnancy that happened to end early, Nehorai said. It would then allow pregnant women to seek care and make lifestyle changes to protect the health of their baby as needed. Looking ahead, the researchers believe that this method should be adopted by hospitals and obstetricians as part of women’s regular pregnancy check-ups. ![]() “Our model was effective in prediction with shorter EHG recordings, which could make the model easier to use, more cost-effective in a clinical setting and possibly usable in a home setting.” ![]() “The advantage of our approach is that is inexpensive to build,” said Nehorai of the new research. In theory, the data from those women could be used as a benchmark for predicting premature birth. Nearly 19% of the women in the study delivered preterm. There were around 10% of all infants born in the U.S. They combined this data with medical information such as the woman’s age and weight, the fetal weight and any bleeding experienced in the first or second trimester. They took recordings of these electrical currents from 159 pregnant women who were at least 26 weeks along and “trained” the AI model on that data. Louis, Missouri, have developed a deep learning model (not shown) that can predict preterm births using electrical activity.ĭuring the study, the researchers performed electrohysterograms (EHGs), which use electrodes on the abdomen to record electrical activity in the uterus. Researchers from Washington University in St. ![]() “The AI/learning automatically learned the most informative features from the data that are relevant to the prediction of preterm birth,” he added.Īdditionally, the findings indicate that preterm birth is an abnormal physiological condition, not just a pregnancy that happened to end early, Nehorai said. “The key takeaway is that it is possible to take data as early as the 31st week and predict preterm birth up to the 37th week” - which surprised the researchers, Arye Nehorai, PhD, professor of electrical engineering at Washington University in St. They developed a deep learning model that can predict preterm births by analyzing electrical activity in the woman’s uterus during pregnancy - then they tested the model in a study that was published in the medical journal PLOS One. Louis, Missouri, are looking to improve those odds through the use of artificial intelligence. Now, researchers from Washington University in St. Preterm births also make up about 16% of infant deaths. in 2021 were preterm - which means they were delivered earlier than 37 weeks of pregnancy, per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Our system thus accomplishes the on demand pc monitoring functionality yet has almost no load on the usable internet bandwidth. This allows the snapshots to be viewed from anywhere irrespective of the server application installation. Whenever the server sends a monitoring request the client pc screen is captured and transferred to server PC as a snapshot attached to an email. Moreover since online image transfers are quite heavy on the particular network we use an email server to transfer images. The system is designed to get a snapshot of a PC’s as and when requested by admin. The Open Hardware Monitor is a free open source software that monitors temperature sensors, fan speeds, voltages, load and clock speeds of a computer. So we propose an On Demand Remote PC monitoring system that monitors a PC on authority demand. Since the system works by sending constant image snapshots of computer screen to intended authority these constant image transfers from a number of computers proves to be quite an unethical practice. Well such system when monitoring on a large number of PC’s proves to have a quite reasonable load on the network.
