Together, Ortiz's subject files reflect the directions of her activism in the final decades of her life. The subseries also contains materials related to health, cancer, and the right-to-die movement feminism, women's liberation, and the Women's International Resource Exchange (WIRE) and the political turmoil of Paris 1968. Especially noteworthy are notes and other papers related to Ortiz's work as associate editor of the Monthly Review, though these provide only a limited glimpse into her decades of service there. The General Files Subseries consists mainly of articles, notes, and periodicals from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. The subseries is organized alphabetically by country. The most extensive segments of the subseries deal with women's liberation in the 1970s and 1980s in Chile, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Eritrea, Guatemala, Mexico, Nicaragua, and the United States. The grassroots organizational publications (many of them ephemeral in nature), news clippings, and articles found in the international women's liberation subseries address such issues as women's economic status, their roles in the family, violence against women, reproductive rights and sexuality, and indigenous women's movements. In the International Women's Liberation Subseries, Ortiz maintained extensive files on the status of women and women's liberation campaigns around the world. The Subject Files Series has been separated into two main subseries: one devoted to international women's liberation and one for general topics. Two folders contain photocopies of inscriptions from many authors found inside the volumes in her personal library (now in the Perkins Library stacks of Duke University). Writings folders include notes, short articles, and speeches written by Ortiz as well as a collection of poetry by Grace Goldin, a friend of Ortiz. Other highlights of the series include Ortiz's scrapbook from her tour of China, which is further documented by audio tapes and photographs in the collection. The Personal Files Series focuses on Ortiz's formal education, particularly her coursework at New York University. Most materials in other series, however, are open for research. The Correspondence Series is almost completely CLOSED to research see the inventory below for more information. Other topics include Vietnam War protests students' movements, particularly Paris, 1968 indigenous women's movements in Latin America AIDS activism sexual health adoption rights gay and lesbian parenting and women's issues such as reproductive rights, economic status, and violence against women. Many of these materials focus on politics and government in Cuba, China, and France. The materials in both women's files are especially rich in the history of the international women's liberation movement and other revolutionary movements in Europe, Latin America, and other countries during the sixties, seventies, and eighties. Other personal documents and subject files concern the activities of Bobbye's daughter, Viki Ortiz, an activist in her own right. The collection documents the personal life and career of an international feminist, Marxist activist, and mother, who also served as editor of the magazine Monthly Review and was the founder of the organization WIRE (Women's International Resource Exchange). The papers consist chiefly of personal correspondence extensive subject files on international political and cultural movements photographs and slides ephemeral publication material such as grassroots newsletters, pamphlets, broadsides, and clippings cultural artifacts, including buttons and T-shirts and over 300 sound recordings of spoken voice and music. The papers of feminist and social activist Bobbye Ortiz span from the years 1919 to 1993, with most of the papers being dated between 19. The collection consists chiefly of personal correspondence extensive subject files on international political and cultural movements photographs and slides ephemeral publication material such as grassroots newsletters, pamphlets, broadsides, and clippings cultural artifacts, including buttons and T-shirts and over 300 sound recordings of spoken voice and music (see separate catalog record for sound recordings).

8/3/2023 0 Comments Gimpshop pluginSince GIMP is open source, there are variants of GIMP (ex: GIMPshop), most all changing the program to run in a single window, in the same way that Photoshop does. GIMP is broken into multiple windows, including the Windows version of the software. GIMP follows this standard well, except for one major thing. The standards that Photoshop set forth are the options that it offers to edit images. Photoshop is built so well, in fact, it has become the unofficial standard for other imaging programs, including GIMP. There is no doubt that Photoshop is a very well built program. While most will say that GIMP is not as good as Photoshop, it is good enough to where the remaining questions carry the actual weight. These factors contribute to the ongoing debate of Photoshop vs GIMP: - Is GIMP as good as Photoshop? - Why should I pay for Photoshop when GIMP is free? - What can Photoshop do that GIMP doesn't? - Are the advantages of Photoshop worth the hefty price tag for me? This gives a professional appeal to Photoshop, and makes it ideal for professional image editors, due not only to any aspects of Photoshop that are superior to alternatives, but by being able to associate themselves with the Photoshop name while seeking clients. There could be, and likely is, real, logical, statistical reasons for this, but at least part of this, is Photoshop has a trusted name that IS image editing. GIMP is regarded as a very good image editor and even a free alternative to Photoshop, but never regarded as a replacement. There are alternatives though, and the biggest and best of those is most likely GIMP. Photoshop is very expensive though, and the price is often not worth it to the "average joe" or "average jane" (can't forget the lady geeks!) This is likely the reason it is heavily pirated. He was the first hacker I met that I knew was better than me.Photoshop is so ingrained in photo-editing, it is used as a verb to describe an edited photo. I've tried googling and looking up Robert (Bob) Parsons a few times over the years and never tracked him down. I was hoping he was going to port elite to the PSION but we lost touch and I have never spoken to him again. His crowning achievement was to build a basic 3D engine for the PSION which he developed from reading some computer science books at the local university library that I found absolutely impenetrable. He then went on to do a Mandelbrot generator for the PSION (which I think had a monochrome screen but if you messed with a lot of machine code you could get shades of gray emulated by quickly flashing the black on and off). I wasted many hours in the my Sixth Form common room playing the game. It was a bit like Worms long before worms was ever invented but much faster action and additive in two player mode against each other. Only, he had it running on his PSION Series 3 PDA and then used the backdrops for a wicked game called (I think) Bobman where you had two little men that battled each other firing weapons that had projectile like motion at each other. A school friend of mine, called Robert Parsons, used a similar algorithm to generate 2D landscapes that look just like Ben's. Seeing the landscape Ben generated instantly brought back so many memories. He has been playing with 2D Fractal Terrains (as you do). Looking forward to getting stuck in to it (just need to finish off installing Beta 2 of VSTS at home). The project itself is really interesting and quite challenging.

Once you release, you’ll be presented with a login screen. From the software page, “long-press” on the vehicle model name for about 5 seconds. To enter service mode, refer to Figure 3. Access to service information however is now available at no charge, all you need to do is sign up at ( Figure 2). You will need to have a subscription to the Tesla Toolbox Software ( Figure 1) that will allow you to activate 'Service Mode Plus' which will provide access to additional resources. I recommend that if you’re going to carry out actions, you do so with advanced knowledge acquired through study and attending technical training.Īdditionally, activating 'Service Mode' does not provide access to all service modes. Now keep in mind that although one has access to these options, special care should be taken in order to avoid something going wrong. This is good news because prior to this, there was a significant barrier for anyone attempting to properly perform a task such as a wheel alignment. Prior, this access was geo-fenced, meaning that it could only be activated when the vehicle was within a specific geographic area such as a Tesla service center. Tesla recently opened access to the basic service mode within their vehicles to anyone via a hidden activation feature. Service mode - Accessing data without any special tools It is always a good idea to consult Tesla's website for the most up-to-date information on warranty coverage. Please note that these warranties may vary depending on the specific model and location and are subject to change.
8/3/2023 0 Comments Verizon network boosterBecause of this, we did a few other tests at different times using the 3G Network Extender, and all averaged between 1-1.8 Mbps download, and uploads between 0.04-0.25 Mbps, while ping times remained about 250 ms. Then we used the 3G Network Extender with the DROID X and got 1.59 Mbps download, which is not much faster than using the local tower, but the upload times were noticeably slower at 0.05 Mbps and ping times were also worse at 264 ms. When the DROID X was connected to Verizon’s local cell tower using EVDO Rev A, it got 1.58 Mbps download, 0.53 Mbps upload, and had a ping time of 163 ms. In our testing however, we did not need to use the extension cable, as it was placed only a few feet from a window and was able to lock onto the GPS signal without issue.įor data usage, we used our Motorola DROID X and performed tests using the site. The manual recommends placing the 3G Network Extender near a window so that it can lock on the GPS signal, but in those instances where the GPS light stays red and cannot find a signal, there is a 23-foot extension cable that will allow you to remove the GPS module and place it closer to a window. Just like the previous model, there is a built-in GPS receiver that limits its use to only the U.S. The bottom WAN light will slowly flash blue to show that it’s connected to your home internet, and will flash faster during a call or when data is used. After it’s connected to your home broadband network, it takes about 10 minutes for it to fully register and become operational, as all four LEDs become solid blue (PWR, SYS, GPS, WAN). The Verizon 3G Network extender is pretty simple to set-up, as it can connect directly to a router or cable modem with the included Ethernet cable, and has an AC/DC power connecter that plugs into a wall outlet. 8/3/2023 0 Comments Screen snapshot windows 10You can also upgrade to a premium account to unlock advanced features, starting at $4 a month.
