![]() Sand is better for drawing intricate patterns, but keep in mind that it’s messier than gravel, particularly if you work alongside children or pets. Gravel is usually used in traditional Japanese rock gardens so the patterns won’t be disturbed by the wind, but miniature gardens can use either material. Most zen gardens will come with a small bag of gravel or sand. What to look for in a quality mini zen garden Sand vs. One popular arrangement is a carefully placed stone in the center of the garden with concentric circles in the sand surrounding it. You can also use your wooden rake to create abstract designs and patterns in the sand that have no explicit meaning. Patterns in the sand are often drawn with the rake to symbolize water or wind, while rocks can be arranged to represent mountains and islands. All of these items can be arranged any way you’d like, but it’s helpful to understand that each of these components have their own symbolic meaning. Some gardens may even feature bonsai trees or bits of moss. Mini zen garden kits usually come with a rake, a packet of sand or gravel, stones and decor like bridges or miniature buildings. Although no training is required to use a mini zen garden, understanding the symbolism behind the arrangements and scenery can make your rock garden experience particularly rewarding. Zen gardens have been used by people from all walks of life to inspire focus and reduce stress. These designs usually represent water or wind and encourage a meditative state. Monks, worshippers and other caretakers of zen gardens use a rake to draw swirling or line patterns on the surface of the sand. These rock gardens are traditionally full of gravel or sand and are enclosed by a low wall. Zen gardens have existed in Japan for centuries, usually constructed near Buddhist monasteries or temples. ![]() What to know before you buy a mini zen garden What are zen gardens? No two mini zen gardens are alike, but for a simple kit with a bamboo tray and all of the essentials, the Hubert & Quinn Japanese Zen Garden for Desk is a top choice. Also known as Japanese rock gardens, these miniature landscapes are meant to demonstrate the essence of the natural world, using sand, stones and plants to inspire feelings of serenity and contemplation.

![]() ![]() Verifying your account status is fairly straightforward. Cell phone text message showing YouTube account verification code. If your video is longer than that, you’ll have to get your status verified, or split your video into shorter pieces. With a standard account, the video you’re uploading to YouTube can’t be any more than 15 minutes in duration. You’ll need to keep an eye on the file size and length of your video. But, before you go running off to upload all of your uncompressed HD 1080p files, there are a few things you’ll want to keep in mind. If you uploaded an H.264, that’s as good as it’s going to get. If YouTube starts using a new codec like VP9, they’ll transcode your video using your original upload. The best you can do is remove your video entirely and upload a new one. You can’t change out the file to increase its video quality later on without also losing your viewer count information along with any links to your movie. Keep in mind however, that whatever you upload to YouTube is locked in. If time is of the essence, an H.264 or H.265 video with the MP4 file format is the way to go. So donât spend more time uploading than you have to. At some point though, the visual difference between a ProRes file and an uncompressed file is indiscernible, the only real difference being file size. So if you’ve got the time, upload the best video you’ve got. You’ll get fewer video compression artifacts on YouTube when you upload high quality video formats, as opposed to low bit rate files. If video quality is your number one priority, then by all means, upload ProRes, DNxHD or uncompressed HD video files. First you need to deinterlace the video, scale it to the right resolution, and decide how much time you want to spend uploading it. If you’ve got an interlaced HDV timeline, for example, you don’t want to just export a movie and upload it. But even if time isn’t an issue, there are a few conversion details you have to watch out for. For one thing, it will take a lot longer to upload your file. Now, just because you can upload uncompressed HD doesn’t mean you should. You may be surprised to find out that YouTube will even accept high quality video formats like ProRes, DNxHD and uncompressed 10-bit HD video. YouTube’s list of supported video formats includes MOV, MP4, AVI, WMV and many others. You can upload just about any kind of video to YouTube, from the video you just shot with your mobile phone to your latest 4K video production. Some codecs are still in use for compatibility with older cellphones, and newer codecs such as VP9, are used to deliver 4K content. H.264 is the codec used by most of YouTubeâs video streams right now, but there are also other codecs in use such as VP8. For starters, YouTube uses more than just one codec, and each codec is encoded to multiple resolutions and bit rates. Well, thatâs a good idea, but it doesn’t exactly work that way. So what video format does YouTube transcode your video to? Maybe you can match its settings and keep it in the same format so your video doesnât need to be transcoded. Instead, you always want to upload a high quality video to YouTube. You don’t want to upload a highly compressed, low bit rate video. The important thing to remember is that anything you upload to YouTube will be transcoded. The individual video streams range in resolution and video quality from tiny postage stamp sized videos, all the way up to 1080p and 4K. This allows your video to playback smoothly on everything from mobile phones to desktop computers. When you upload your video to YouTube, its video servers kick into action and start transcoding your file into a set of optimized video streams. When you know what’s going on behind the scenes, you’ll understand the best settings to use and why you should use them. To answer these questions, it helps to know how YouTube processes your video once itâs been uploaded to its video servers. But what compression settings should you use? Which file format should you export your video to, and what bit rate will give you the highest video quality, while still playing back smoothly online? When you upload your video to YouTube, you want it looking its best. You’ve spent hours fine-tuning your edits, dialing in your color grade, and mixing your sound track. Your video production is finally ready for the world to see. ![]() From codecs to bit rates, this in-depth look at the best way to encode your videos for YouTube can help you become a YouTube encoding expert. With over one billion users and more prime demographic reach than any major television network, YouTube is a distribution channel you don’t want to miss out on. ![]() ![]() ![]() The genius is the messages that 'everything is going wrong' with your 'flock' whilst out in the woods trying to destroy an epic boss. Got a couple of bugs that need ironing, but I switched this on to 'have a look' and since then spent 32 hours of the 48 hour weekend absolutely addicted to it. It's absolutely right up there with binding of isaac and enter the gungeon. I’m really surprised by how low the ps5 users score is. Nothing game breaking for me yet but I also have a high tolerance to bugs thanks to Bethesda. Maybe I will feel different when I’m further in. Sermons do start to feel old fast but that doesn’t take away too much from my experience. The graphics also look amazing and I love the sound design. Your never waiting for anything for more than a couple seconds. Nothing gamebreaking but very frustrating. Still love it but there are a lot of crashes. Yes, this game crashes more on ps5 than the launch cyberpunk. I still think this game is worth getting but in late game I sometimes have to reload the game like 3 times every hour because it crashes. Hopefully I remember to play it once everything is fixed. I’ll be lowering my score from a 9 to a 7. Edit: I am about 20 hours in now and late game is a buggy mess which is really sad because I love everything about this game. It also drops every new day for some reason. It was only an issue once during a boss fight. Every time I pick up certain items (fervor is what I think it’s called) while on a “crusade” it does drops but like 20. I just wish the cycle lasted a bit longer. The combat is fun and the day night cycle really keeps you engaged. I’m about 8 hours in and haven’t experienced any. I’m seeing a lot of other reviews mention game breaking bugs. Every time I pick up certain items (fervor is what I I’m enjoying this game so much that I finally made an account so I could make a review. Have you already tried this game?

Netflix orders them thusly: "Yellow: 6 Weeks Before the Heist,” "Green: 7 Years Before the Heist,” "Blue: 5 Days Before the Heist,” "Orange: 3 Weeks Before the Heist,” "Violet: 24 Years Before the Heist,” "Red: The Morning After the Heist," and "Pink: 6 Months After." Watching all seven unlocks episode eight, "White: The Heist." Based on the episode titles alone, one can plan their viewing strategy, from a random chaos approach to the “MCUing it” path of replicating a close-to-linear presentation of the origins of the scrappy crew of criminals led by Ray Vernon/Leo Pap (Giancarlo Esposito) who plan to steal $7 billion worth of untraceable bearer bonds from Pap’s former criminal wing man-turned-legit security mogul, Roger Salas (Rufus Sewell). For those who background-watch their TV, it requires an investment of time and attention that doesn’t necessarily pay off with anything as clever as the concept.įrom the jump, viewers can choose to watch any seven of the eight color-coded episodes in any order they like. For non-linear aficionados, it’s a fun playground experiment. This Rorschach test approach gives the viewer a unique lens into the players, the history, and dynamics of the heist based on their personal whims. But Netflix’s new thriller series, Kaleidoscope, gets creativity points for letting the audience decide how they’ll watch this heist unfold by choosing the viewing order of seven of the eight episodes however they want. ![]() ![]() There are plenty of ways to do it: telling it linear, non-linear, from disparate points of view, or even through flashbacks.

For those interested, I also developed Describing Words which helps you find adjectives and interesting descriptors for things (e.g. So this project, Reverse Dictionary, is meant to go hand-in-hand with Related Words to act as a word-finding and brainstorming toolset. That project is closer to a thesaurus in the sense that it returns synonyms for a word (or short phrase) query, but it also returns many broadly related words that aren't included in thesauri. I made this tool after working on Related Words which is a very similar tool, except it uses a bunch of algorithms and multiple databases to find similar words to a search query. So in a sense, this tool is a "search engine for words", or a sentence to word converter. It acts a lot like a thesaurus except that it allows you to search with a definition, rather than a single word. The engine has indexed several million definitions so far, and at this stage it's starting to give consistently good results (though it may return weird results sometimes). For example, if you type something like "longing for a time in the past", then the engine will return "nostalgia". It simply looks through tonnes of dictionary definitions and grabs the ones that most closely match your search query. The way Reverse Dictionary works is pretty simple. ![]() ![]() ![]() They make certain that overall system performance meets client expectations. ![]() These should meet the needs of the organization.

These components include the breakaway battery, the power source, the breakaway switch/relay, and the trailer brakes. Next, it is important to note the various components associated with the trailer breakaway battery wiring. The power source, breakaway switch/relay, and the trailer brakes should all be connected via the same wiring diagram. ![]() The breakaway switch or relay is the element that will detect the separation of the trailer from the towing vehicle and activate the trailer brakes. This symbol will be followed by a line that runs to the breakaway switch or relay. This will typically be indicated by a positive (+) symbol next to the power source. The first step in understanding the wiring diagram for a trailer breakaway battery is to look for the main power source. Interpreting the Trailer Breakaway Battery Wiring Diagram This diagram outlines the electrical connections that must be made, as well as the specific components and circuit breakers needed. To ensure the breakaway battery is providing sufficient power to the brakes, a wiring diagram is required. This is a critical safety feature, as trailers can quickly become runaway vehicles if they are not brought to a complete stop after becoming disconnected from the towing vehicle. Trailer breakaway batteries are designed to provide power to the trailer brakes when the towing vehicle becomes disconnected from the trailer. In this article, we'll examine how to interpret the wiring diagram and the key components associated with it. The wiring diagram for the trailer breakaway battery is an important tool to help ensure the battery is properly wired and that it is functioning as it should. Without them, a trailer could become separated from the towing vehicle in the event of an emergency or accident, potentially leading to serious harm or property damage. Trailer breakaway batteries are an essential safety feature for any vehicle with a towing capacity.
