But I can promise right now that until this annoyance is solved (and this change request is so simple it could be done by a TechSmith coder during his or her lunch break), I will not be buying any Snagit upgrades of any kind. I've used Snagit for MANY years and paid for the upgrades for nearly every release. Just the option to have one more button on the toolbar to save me from repeating this oddly inefficient action over and over and over. SnagIt is a powerful screen capture and image editing software developed by TechSmith Corporation. Why has TechSmith so consistently ignored users who've made this very simple request for YEARS of using Snagit as an image editor? We're not asking for a major redesign of Snagit Editor here. Simply adding the OPTION for a toolbar button to apply a white canvas with one click (and ideally another button for transparent) would solve 95% of this problem. I am forced to take those same five steps on nearly every image I edit in Snagit. There's no logical reason why on nearly every image I edit with Snagit Editor, I need to perform a five-step process to change the color of the canvas under my image. GIVE USERS TOOLBAR BUTTONS TO CHOOSE CANVAS COLORS So, we have another new release of Snagit where the Editor lacks a very simple feature that has been requested by customers dozens if not hundreds of times: Snagit Editor 2023 - STILL no toolbar option to quickly set CANVAS COLOR When you upload software to you get rewarded by points.

The resonant case was added subsequently by a French instrument-maker, Marloye. The tuning fork was invented by John Shore, a trumpeter in the service of George I of England, in 1711, nearly three hundred years ago. In England the notes were named after the first letters of the alphabet. In Italy do was substituted in place of ut, because it was easier to pronounce in singing. The seventh syllable, si, was added in 1684 by Lemaire. They are the beginnings of words which occur in a hymn to Saint John the Baptist, and are as follows: ut, re, mi, fa, sol, la. Being made in France, these tuning forks have the French inscriptions the first six notes bear the names given by the monk Guy of Aresso in 1026. The Equal Tempered Chromatic Scale has A 3=440 which makes C 3=261.63 The notes of the scale are variously designated in different countries. * These notes are based on the Scientific or Diatonic Scale in which C 3=256, thus making computations simple. Tonic 1st overtone of our fundamental frequency one of these forks is tunable The following table lists the various frequencies that we have available with comments. The simultaneous receding and approaching (via a blackboard reflection) tones of the tuning fork interfere and produce beats (from the students' frame of reference). Alternatively, beats may be produced by walking briskly away from the class towards the blackboard with tuning fork in hand. One of the 256 Hz tuning forks is also adjustable in frequency so that beats may by heard when it is sounded simultaneously with a regular 256 Hz fork. Additionally, a frequency analyzer shows a single frequency component (however, if the gain is turned up high, you may also see the frequency components due to the resonances of the sound box or harmonics of the tuning fork if it was whacked too hard). A microphone/preamp/scope setup may be used to visually demonstrate the pure sinusoidal sound wave. Next time you go see a doctor, you may have tuning fork used on you.įor more information on Tuning forks, click here.Selection of mounted tuning forks and rubber hammer.Įach tuning fork is mounted on a wooden sound box to amplify the sound (they're very difficult to hear without the box). It can used for several healing and evaluation practices including: Rinne tests, X-rays and sound therapy. The tuning fork is a great and non-invasive healing tool. Using a tuning fork for sound therapy is one of the best techniques to achieve total relaxation. The soundwaves the fork produces restores the balance in the body’s chakras, keeping the muscles, nervous system and organs in perfect harmony. Tuning forks can also provide sound therapy which helps induce a deeper state of relaxation. Doctors do this by simply striking a tuning fork and placing the vibrating fork close to the affected area. If X-rays are in short supply, doctors will use tuning forks to identify whether a bone is fractured or not. In addition to hearing loss, the tuning fork can be used to evaluate a wide range of other health problems. If the patient feels the fork more through the jaw than they can hear it through the ear there is a problem conducting soundwaves. Using a stopwatch, the doctor will time how long the patient can hear it by the skull and the ear. The doctor will then place the fork near the patient’s ear. The Rinne test involves a doctor placing a humming tuning fork near the patient’s skull. Testing for hearing loss with a tuning fork is called a Rinne test. In the medical profession, tuning forks remain a preferred method of testing for certain types of hearing loss. This same wave pattern can also be used in medical situations. Tuning forks work by releasing a perfect wave pattern to match a musician’s instrument. Traditionally, this tool has been used to tune musical instruments. For those who are unaware, a tuning fork is a two-pronged metal fork that can be used as an acoustic resonator. Have you ever used a tuning fork? This tool is a very versatile instrument that can be used for many different healing processes.

A provider should never say "Your quad screen came back positive." What they should say is "Your quad screen came back with an elevated risk, so we'd like to investigate further to see if there's a problem. What you can have is a healthcare provider who is too fucking stupid to explain this to people who don't already know the difference between a screening test and a diagnostic test. There is 0 risk of false positives because it is impossible to have a positive on this screening test. Looks pretty boyish down there:ĮDIT: Whoops. I've already had a freaking gender reveal party!! The ultrasound tech told me she was confident that it was a boy during my anatomy scan and I even have this ultrasound, in case you all are curious. The midwife read my ultrasound report to me (which, for some reason didn't include images) and the doctor reported that I was having a girl. Which brings me to the second part of the title. There's no bullshit of "testing positive." They're 99% accurate and you can know the gender for sure. Second, why the hell do midwives/OBs bother with this test? Genetic tests, like MaterniT21 and Harmony, are far more accurate (I originally thought the quad screen WAS a genetic test until the night before my blood draw when I Googled it.TIL I need to ask more questions during my appointments) and require the same substance: a vial of blood.

Cobalt oxides are antiferromagnetic at low temperature: CoO ( Néel temperature 291 K) and Co 3O 4 (Néel temperature: 40 K), which is analogous to magnetite (Fe 3O 4), with a mixture of +2 and +3 oxidation states. Black cobalt(III) oxide (Co 2O 3) is also known. At temperatures of 600–700 ☌, CoO oxidizes to the blue cobalt(II,III) oxide (Co 3O 4), which has a spinel structure. It is readily oxidized with water and oxygen to brown cobalt(III) hydroxide (Co(OH) 3). Green cobalt(II) oxide (CoO) has rocksalt structure. In a borax bead flame test, cobalt shows deep blue in both oxidizing and reducing flames. Addition of chloride gives the intensely blue [CoCl These salts form the pink-colored metal aquo complex [Co(H A common oxidation state for simple compounds is +2 (cobalt(II)). Compounds Ĭommon oxidation states of cobalt include +2 and +3, although compounds with oxidation states ranging from −3 to +5 are also known. At ordinary temperatures, it reacts slowly with mineral acids, and very slowly with moist, but not dry, air. It does not react with hydrogen gas ( H 2) or nitrogen gas ( N 2) even when heated, but it does react with boron, carbon, phosphorus, arsenic and sulfur. The metal reacts with fluorine (F 2) at 520 K to give CoF 3 with chlorine (Cl 2), bromine (Br 2) and iodine (I 2), producing equivalent binary halides. Heating in oxygen produces Co 3O 4 which loses oxygen at 900 ☌ (1,650 ☏) to give the monoxide CoO. Ĭobalt is a weakly reducing metal that is protected from oxidation by a passivating oxide film. The ideal transition temperature between the hcp and fcc structures is 450 ☌ (842 ☏), but in practice the energy difference between them is so small that random intergrowth of the two is common. Metallic cobalt occurs as two crystallographic structures: hcp and fcc. Cobalt has a relative permeability two-thirds that of iron. The Curie temperature is 1,115 ☌ (2,039 ☏) and the magnetic moment is 1.6–1.7 Bohr magnetons per atom. Cobalt in inorganic form is also a micronutrient for bacteria, algae, and fungi.Ĭharacteristics A block of electrolytically refined cobalt (99.9% purity) cut from a large plateĬobalt is a ferromagnetic metal with a specific gravity of 8.9. Vitamin B 12, the best-known example of the type, is an essential vitamin for all animals. Ĭobalt is the active center of a group of coenzymes called cobalamins. This is to purge it of sulfur, which is very polluting when burned and causes acid rain. Cobalt is also used in the petroleum industry as a catalyst when refining crude oil. Cobalt-60 is a commercially important radioisotope, used as a radioactive tracer and for the production of high-energy gamma rays. Cobalt occurs naturally as only one stable isotope, cobalt-59. The compounds cobalt silicate and cobalt(II) aluminate (CoAl 2O 4, cobalt blue) give a distinctive deep blue color to glass, ceramics, inks, paints and varnishes. Ĭobalt is primarily used in lithium-ion batteries, and in the manufacture of magnetic, wear-resistant and high-strength alloys. World production in 2016 was 116,000 tonnes (114,000 long tons 128,000 short tons) (according to Natural Resources Canada), and the DRC alone accounted for more than 50%. The Copperbelt in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and Zambia yields most of the global cobalt production. The element is more usually produced as a by-product of copper and nickel mining. Today, some cobalt is produced specifically from one of a number of metallic-lustered ores, such as cobaltite (CoAsS). In 1735, such ores were found to be reducible to a new metal (the first discovered since ancient times), which was ultimately named for the kobold. They were so named because they were poor in known metals and gave off poisonous arsenic-containing fumes when smelted. Miners had long used the name kobold ore ( German for goblin ore) for some of the blue pigment-producing minerals. The color was long thought to be due to the metal bismuth. The free element, produced by reductive smelting, is a hard, lustrous, silvery metal.Ĭobalt-based blue pigments ( cobalt blue) have been used since antiquity for jewelry and paints, and to impart a distinctive blue tint to glass. As with nickel, cobalt is found in the Earth's crust only in a chemically combined form, save for small deposits found in alloys of natural meteoric iron. Cobalt is a chemical element it has symbol Co and atomic number 27. If the Knight saves him both times, he is captured and can be found in the resting area of the Colosseum of Fools, where he brags about his skills and how his capture was part of his plan.

While he claims to be the strongest warrior in the land, he is found trapped by weak enemies or claiming the glory of another bug's deeds. Unfortunately, because it is made of shellwood, it cannot deal damage. He named his nail "Life Ender" because names supposedly have power. This is ultimately revealed to be a promise of glory for himself. Zote is a traveller from outside Hallownest who came to the Kingdom to fulfill a promise. The foul could be far less consequential than a flagrant foul, but the punishment is just as severe (with the only difference being the offending player not getting a technical on his game and season record).īut today, the rule seems even more controversial than before. The clear path foul has always been controversial because of how severe the penalty is. The very first definition of the rule was much more restrictive than it is today – “If a foul is committed against any offensive player in his frontcourt, who has a clear path to the basket and is thereby deprived of the opportunity to score, a second free throw and possession of the ball out of bounds shall be awarded.” Is the controversy justified? This was introduced in the 2018-2019 season, but the rule dates back much further than that.Īccording to the NBA’s website on the history of rule changes, the first mention of the clear path rule dates back to the 1984-85 season. The latest modification made by the NBA Board of Governors was to extend the rule to apply to fouls in the backcourt as well. The NBA’s clear path foul definition (which they sometimes refer to as Clear-Path-To-The Basket-Foul) has gone through several modifications over the years. Note that in NCAA college basketball there is no such thing as a clear path foul, but the referee might call an intentional foul in many similar situations. That’s why many NBA fans hate seeing this call and it’s fortunate that clear path fouls aren’t that common. That leads to delays and further breaks the flow of the game. The harshness of this punishment is why referees will often review a potential clear path foul multiple times to make sure they get the call right. It might seem harsh to have an equally severe punishment as a technical foul or flagrant foul, but the league needs a big punishment if it is to truly deter defenders from committing clear path fouls. Make a three on the ensuing possession and you got yourself a five-point swing. Given how well most NBA players shoot free throws, that usually translates to at least two points. If you commit a clear path foul, the other team gets two free throws (a.k.a. We’ve already established that clear path fouls are a pretty big deal, so it’s only natural to have the punishment fit the crime. What’s the penalty for committing a clear path foul? You’ll probably agree that preventing a dunk isn’t worth sending someone to the hospital and potentially endangering their entire career.Īs a result, the clear path foul exists to punish defenders who try this act and make sure the offense is appropriately rewarded. Getting fouled from behind, especially when you’re going full speed, can lead to some gruesome injuries that have the potential to end careers. One more thing that many fans disregard is the potential for injury. Simply put, the clear path foul rule was introduced to prevent defenders from taking the easy way out in transition and destroying the flow of the game, and to reward the offense for a steal. It would give them a chance to set up and defend in the half-court instead of paying the price for their turnover or lack of hustle getting back. If we didn’t have the concept of a clear path foul, and a foul in that situation was instead deemed a common foul, it would reward defensive players. You’ll agree that, without a clear path rule, one personal foul would be a small price to pay for avoiding a huge shift in momentum. Plenty of NBA games have had that one play that energizes one team and completely deflates the other. Fouling players who have a clear path ahead of them not only destroys the flow of the game, but can impact the momentum of the game. Think about it, awesome dunks in transition are some of the most awe-inspiring plays in basketball. As you can see from the definition and the above video, a defender fouling an attacker with an almost guaranteed scoring opportunity ahead should warrant a bigger punishment than a common foul. |
