11/30/2023 0 Comments Fake rhino 7![]() ![]() In the case of flooding the market with imitation rhino horn, further evidence is required that this would have a positive conservation outcome for already imperilled rhino populations. To end the poaching and trafficking of rhino parts requires strengthened transnational law enforcement to dismantle trafficking networks, as well as interventions that increase the incomes and wellbeing of those who live alongside wildlife.Ībove all, protecting critically endangered species requires evidence-based strategies. If poaching is cheaper and less time-intensive than creating convincing imitations, there will remain strong incentives for traffickers to continue trading illegally sourced horn. Wildlife trafficking is complex, characterised by shifting consumer preferences, laundering and the influence of organised criminal networks. In addition, rhino horn is not perfect market. The same can be said for tiger farms.įlooding the market will not stem the flow of rhino parts transnational law enforcement will As has been observed in the market for bear bile following the introduction of bear-bile farming, this may in fact boost overall demand for wild-caught products: the availability of alternatives perpetuates the perception that the product is desirable or medicinally effective. Imitations are likely to appeal to a different consumer segment that aspires to, but cannot currently access, the real thing. But we know from the research that consumers want the real thing, and have the means and connections to ensure they get it, often using personal introductions and word-of-mouth recommendations to find trusted sellers. They sometimes require evidence of provenance too. Imitations made from cattle horn are already on the market to exploit the high value of rhino horn. In a world where genuine wildlife products and those who consume them are considered superior, fakes – however indistinguishable to the uninitiated – are highly unlikely to satisfy and substitute demand for wild species. Likewise, medicinal products from wild animals that must fight for survival and eat a natural diet are considered safer and more effective in restoring and maintaining vital energy – “qi” – and, in turn, good health. ![]() In China, buying rhino horn has largely been driven by its value as an investment. In Vietnam, the main market for rhino horn, gifting and consumption is closely tied with high-status business transactions, and is used to strengthen social networks. Access to a synthetic substitute does not. ![]() Demand is closely tied to the social status that the rarity and expense of the real thing confers on buyers, who rely on trusted sources to avoid imitations.Īccess to products from rare wild animals demonstrates status, wealth and power over people and resources. Research on consumer behaviour tells us that rhino horn substitutes are unlikely to satisfy consumers. The rich will still find the real thing, while the less well-off take the fakes ![]() What is needed instead is better transnational law enforcement and incomes for people living alongside rhinos. Unfortunately, it is not a silver bullet, and there is a real danger it could make poaching worse. The story has captured the imagination as an innovative solution to the problem. They are sharing this knowledge so that others might consider flooding the market to reduce consumer confidence and slow poaching. Driven by rising prosperity in east Asian markets, they peaked in 2015.Īmid the ongoing battle to protect rhinos, news emerged recently that scientists have created fake rhino horn from horsehair. Rhino poaching rates began to surge from 2008. An international ban on the trade has been in place since 1977, but poaching and trafficking have persisted. Hundreds of African rhinos are poached every year for their horn, with an average of two and a half killed per day. ![]()

![]() ![]() The reserve is open from 8 am to 3 pm during the week, and 8 am to 5 pm on the weekends. You’ll have backdoor access to the reserve and get such an authentic Costa Rican expereince unheard of in many tourist towns. Los Campesinos is also a cool place to spend a night or two on your trip. If you would prefer to do a tour, Los Campesinos offers horseback riding tours starting from $44 USD, a medicinal plant tour for $10 USD, a village tour of a local community for $20, as well as guided hikes along their trails. One of the trails visits one of the longest hanging bridges in Costa Rica, another takes you across a valley on a cable car, and the last trail leads to a viewpoint overlooking Manuel Antonio National Park!Īfter you’re done hiking in the reserve, you can enjoy a local lunch on the property! Once you arrive, you can either choose to explore the area on your own or join a guided tour.Įntrance to Los Campesinos is $13 USD without a tour, and there are a few different trails you can explore on the property. On a visit to Los Campesinos, you’ll need to drive yourself from Manuel Antonio for around 1 hour along a bumpy mountain road (4WD recommended). In total, Los Campesinos is home to 35 hectares of forest, both primary and secondary. The reserve is located just 25 kilometers from Quepos within lush mountains areas and similar fauna to Manuel Antonio National Park. Los Campesinos is a small privately-owned nature reserve and lodge that’s rather unknown to most visitors in Manuel Antonio. You should book the cruise online in advance as there are limited spots available. The cruise is available both in the morning and afternoon for $95 USD and leaves from Quepos. Overall it’s one of the best ways to spend a few hours in Manuel Antonio! ![]() As the sunset, we enjoyed our dinner before heading back to port. Then, we cruised the coastline around Manuel Antonio and got to see lots of birds, including macaws. We saw lots of fish and had some fun with the onboard slide. Unfortunately, we didn’t get to see any on our tour, but you may be luckier than me.Īfterward, we visited a really cool snorkel spot and jumped in the water to explore. We set off at 2 pm and spent the first-hour enjoying drinks and looking for whales and dolphins. The tour I did was fantastic and included unlimited drinks, dinner, snorkeling, swimming, a really fun and knowledgeable guide, and a great crew. After a few days doing lots of wildlife activities, I was ready to sit back, relax and enjoy a few drinks out on the water. One of the best things I did in Manuel Antonio was a sunset sailing tour. The best for swimming is Playa Espadilla Sur and Playa Manuel Antonio. It’s a great way to spend a day, and even those without a guide should see wildlife.Īlong with the above trails, there are also a couple of beaches within the park to enjoy. These range in length however, it is possible to complete all of the trails on the map below in one day. Or, just choose a couple of trails and walk at a slow pace (the slower you go, the more chance you’ll have at spotting wildlife!)Īlong the way, you’ll spot monkeys, macaws, sloths, snakes, and other wildlife. Throughout the park, there are many short hiking trails that lead through specific vegetation where you’ll find lots of local species of wildlife. This map shows all of the different hiking trails in Manuel Antonio National Park. ![]() 11/30/2023 0 Comments Halo games list![]() While that’s true, what’s at the heart of the Halo franchise does not change it’s Master Chief, Cortana, some punchy guns that don’t get old, and a soundtrack that never lets up. In addition, all new features of the more recent Xbox consoles work, including the ability to take screen grabs and record and share video of gameplay. by Game Informer Editorial on at 12:44 PM. The opening screen appears first then the game will load.Īll other aspects and features that would normally be available on an Xbox 360 or Xbox are available on the Xbox One/Series X/S too, including the hub on the former (which can be opened through a simultaneous press of the menu and view buttons on the Xbox wireless controller). When a supported game is started on the machine, the current or last-gen console opens the emulator and, in all regards, the game works as if it was running on an Xbox 360 or 2001 Xbox. Halo is a franchise that’s gotten complex over the years. Only two of the games had previously received PC ports - the original Halo: Combat Evolved released in 2003 and Halo 2 released in 2007. The Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S are able to play Xbox 360 and original Xbox games through emulation software that makes your console think it's a last-generation machine for the purposes of playing classic games. DecemBy Jason Faulkner Playing the Halo games in order of story gives players a unique view of the universe. The game was ported to Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X in 2003. How does Xbox backward compatibility work? Halo: Combat Evolved is a 2001 first-person shooter video game developed by Bungie and published by Microsoft Game Studios for the Xbox.It was released as a launch game for Microsofts Xbox video game console on November 15, 2001. NOTE: Letters (BC) next to a console name means that game Is Backwards Compatible on Xbox One and Newer Xbox Consoles. This list also includes Xbox Console Exclusive Status EX, Metacritic Review Score, and How Long To Beat Game Data.

This was the last version of MCCC before EA updated from the 32-bit to the 64-bit (now Standard Version) of the game. Per Deaderpool’s recommendation, you should use the MCCC 6.6.0 version. If you’re on an unsupported system such as a Non-Metal mac OS or PC 32-bit Operating System, you’ll need to use The Sims 4 Legacy Edition. Problem #6: I’m running The Sims 4 Legacy Edition, what MCCC version should I use? Uploading this error log file to their Discord support channel for verification is the best way to troubleshoot the error (community support for the win!). However, Deaderpool mentions that bugs in MC Command Center can occasionally cause this error message. This Error Logged notification is often prompted by outdated or incompatible script mods. ![]() This message notifies the player when an error has been caught by the script mod and records the error in the mc_cmd_center.log file. MCCC’s Error Logged notification is often quite similar to Last Exception. Deaderpool recommends reaching out to their Discord support channel if the process of elimination fails! Problem #5: What does Error Logged mean in MCCC? ![]() The best way to resolve this error is by making sure all other mods are updated and none conflict with MCCC. According to Deaderpool, Last Exception Caught By MCCC is an error message that is typically the result of other outdated or “bad” script mods that are conflicting with MC Command Center.ĭetails on the specific error(s) can be found when clicking on the mc_lastexception.html file inside the script mod’s folder. You might have seen a notification pop-up called Last Exception Caught By MCCC. Problem #4: What does Last Exception Caught by MCCC mean? Since this file does not get overwritten when using the copy/paste method, your settings carry over! Just don’t delete the mc_settings.cfg file, and you’ll be good as gold. When you create custom settings, MC Command Center creates a new file called mc_settings.cfg to store all your preferences. You’ll get a prompt asking to replace all the duplicate files in your active folder.

The body is quite complex and it is difficult to draw correct proportions and move away from the 2D plane. It’s important that you don’t overpopulate your drawing with too many action lines, because it could confuse the character’s intention, make the force go in different directions, and take the emphasis away from the most important action. This is very important for any comic artist. If you know how to properly handle the strength, rhythm, and action lines correctly, you will be able to guide the spectator along the path you have set. Don’t you get the impression that it will be a home run even though you haven’t seen how the scene ends yet? It’s the magic of anticipation. He’s spinning his body to get enough momentum and counter the ball’s force to hit it far away. This time, our character is a baseball player. She has no intention of losing the fight. ![]() However, this girl wants to overcome this force with her own strength. Elements such as the hair, the clothes and the dust on the floor suggest that the force comes from the right side, and as these elements are light, they are affected by the speed with which this force acts. In this drawing we can see that there is a force that pushes the character in the opposite direction to her gaze. The third one simply provides greater stability to the pose. The first one covers the whole figure from head to toe, and the second one goes in the opposite direction, keeping the balance and forming an X. This time you can see three action lines, but the most important are (1) and (2), the ones that really tell the story. The next pose is more dynamic, so there are more things going on in this image. We can see it is a relaxed pose because her weight rests on a single point (3) and all she needs is to keep the balance with her left foot, which remains taut while the right one is resting. In the figure (2), we can see her action line, which covers her whole body up to the foot. The character (1) has a relaxed stance, resting on her right arm. It focuses on actions and helps to unify the whole figure.īelow you can see a couple of examples where strength, rhythm and action lines interact together. The action line is the imaginary guide that indicates your character’s movement. Strength and rhythm provide a lot of visual information you can work with: the weight of your character (1), the balance of his pose (2) or the lack of it (3). Obviously, once the cat gives in to the force, your character will fall, as the cat was what kept him standing. If the character wants to pull something that refuses to move, his body will lean in the opposite direction. ![]() If your character is pushed to the left, his body will fall in that direction (A), unless he puts up resistance to stand (B). When two or more forces interact with each other, a rhythm is set, which provides balance and sense to the movement. They can walk, jump, dance… whatever comes to mind! But unless they are floating in space, it is not the only force that acts on them, as gravity makes their feet stay on land. ![]() Your characters move thanks to their inner strength. This is what observation means: paying attention to the details and characteristics of the body. The changes in your body don’t resemble figure A, right? For example, your shoulder also lifts, and many other parts of your body adapt to the movement as in figure B. ![]() When you raise an arm, the arm is not the only part of your body that moves, unlike how the removable extremities of dolls work. If you look at yourself in front of a mirror and start moving, you will notice that your body works as a single element. If at any point you get curious about trying something new (which I hope you do), it never hurts to take a look at that anatomy book.Įven if your drawing style is far from realistic, the aspects that make a pose interesting and credible remain the same: strength, rhythm, action lines, construction and perspective. It’s not as difficult as it seems: observation and practice are your best tools. To draw a pose correctly, you don’t need to always carry an anatomy book with you. ![]() 11/29/2023 0 Comments Editready 2 review![]() ![]() ![]() The default QTChange operation is to read the MP4 source TC (which it can - even on Sony MP4), then re-write that on the metadata of each clip in Quicktime format so that FCP can read it. Or you could rewrap the clips with Editready or use QTChange to preprocess the clips before import, and you would avoid many (but not all) of these problems. The EditReady menu option for this is Clip>Edit Metadata. This can be done via rewrap or passthrough. You can zero out the TC or preset TC to any value using the 3rd-party QTChange utility: You can also zero out or preset TC on clips using EditReady. Is there any way to zero out the TC of the originals so it is identical in all applications? Moving the XML-Files does not help. Otherwise my documentary I started on with 20 hours of footage would be in REAL trouble. So give him a chance - I dont work for him nor do I earn money by promoting this tool, I am just so glad I found this. And its only 30 euros - MUCH less then editready AND you have great support from a guy who really knows what he is talking about. I would always keep backups before and perfom this only on a single copy of my files I am editing with but its great that you dont have to deal with different rewrapped file formats. And best of all: You can revert your changes so ALL Sony Metadata will be readable again. ![]() NO rewrap is needed as in editready you can perform the switch on the files you are currently editing with (if you want to zero them out, NOT if you want to set them to sony TC for sure). Then any other application will see the 0 timecode as well. It saved my butt right now!! It just makes TC readable plus you can set File-TC to start from zero if you already f*** up and started editing with those files in FCPx starting from 0. WOW!

We can perform simple queries directly against our Friends.Repo with the help of a handful of functions. Recall that a “repository” in Ecto maps to a datastore such as our Postgres database.Īll communication to the database will be done using this repository. Let’s query the database again to check if we still have a single record.In this lesson, we’ll continue building off the Friends app and the movie-cataloguing domain we set up in the previous lesson. Let’s update our migration to look as follows: topic - The current topic of the room can be changed from time to time, to reflect current state in the room.īefore we apply the migration itself we need to update it for our needs.description - The text which describes the intention of the room.We have created it with the following columns. Now since we are clear about contexts let’s get back to our table. So from now on, Phoenix requires us to group models into contexts. The talk is quite interesting by the way. You can also find more details what that decision has been made in the ElixirConf 2017 Keynote talk given by Chris McCord. The main idea comes from the Domain-Driven Design Book and also described as a Bounded Contexts by Martin Fowler. It can help to draw the borders between different modules. Contexts help to group similar functionality under the same module. Phoenix 1.3 introduces the contexts functionality. Here we also need to stop a little bit and talk about contexts. Why do we use Conversation.Room instead of just Room? The Conversation module here would be a context. → mix Conversation.Room rooms name:string description:string topic:string Using Phoenix generators we can create our model as follows: The last one will provide diffrent results in some cases, it is deprecated, and it would be removed in Phoenix 1.4. If you are using version 1.3 of the Phoenix framework then make sure you use mix phx. Let’s try to create a new table in our database to keep the information about rooms.Įcto provides us migration generators, which we can use to describe the structure of the table and apply those changes in a database. Query - Wrapper in Elixir around SQL queries.Changeset - Provides a way to cast attributes value into correct types, add validation rules and constraints.It converts table’s columns into Struct items. Schema - Think of that as a mapping between a database table and its columns with the Elixir struct.It can provide access to different data storages such as databases or in-memory storages. The Repo hides implementation details from models. Models hide implementation details from the rest of components. Repo - the repository of data storage.Or does it?Īnyway, Ecto is a library and domain-specific language to interact with databases. Probably what is why Ecto cannot be considered as ORM. We know, Elixir is not an Object-Oriented Programming language. ![]() Object-relational mapping (ORM, O/RM, and O/R mapping tool) in computer science is a programming technique for converting data between incompatible type systems using object-oriented programming languages. If we take a look at ORM’s description from Wikipedia page: If you are familiar with other frameworks you probably know about ORM (Object-relational Mapping and might think: “Ah. We are communicating with it through an additional layer called Ecto. In the Phoenix framework, we are not working database directly. As you may know from the first article of these series, We will use PostgreSQL for that application. Nowadays almost every application has a persistent storage. Also, there is no way to manage rooms by users of our application. Every time we want to update the list of the rooms we need to update the code. We have the rooms list in our application. We will get to that question soon as well. ![]() You may also notice why does that model is called Conversation instead of Room. Yes, that data is hardcoded at the moment, but we are going to change it soon. Our controller and view use that data to render a list of the rooms on the page. We have created a model which provides us data about rooms. Let’s quickly sum up what we did till now. We have used a comprehension here to iterate through a list of the rooms and render the element for each room.Īnd now our page looks as it was at the beginning. ![]() |
