I’ll forgive the lack of 3D since manufacturers seem to have stopped supporting that, so that feature can stay on the 3DS. None of Sonic Jam’s difficulty or layout settings, no Mega Play mode for 1 & 2, and no Ring Saver mode. But still so much from other releases that don’t seem to be included. There’s some inclusions I wasn’t expecting like the 4:3 mode and the mission mode. Pre-orders will also get a "Start Dash Pack" unlocking Mirror mode, a Mega Drive background for Classic mode, and 100 coins. Gematsu confirms these Digital Deluxe features will also be available as DLC under the "Premium Fun Pack" at $3.99, with further music tracks available via the "Premium & Classic Sound Pack" for $3.99. We don't know much about the Mission mode yet, however screenshots of it show off a menu with the Veg-O-Fortress from Sonic Spinball, and a screenshot of Knuckles in S&K's Death Egg Zone (which he normally does not appear in) with a unique level layout, a timer, and a letter grade.įollowing Sega's recent releases, Origins will have a "Digital Deluxe" version, which is set to include an additional 11 "hard" missions, 73 extra music tracks in the museum from other Genesis and 32X games, bonus menu animations, 10 Classic mode backgrounds for the letterbox, and an "Island Camera." The game will include features both within and beyond previous HD remakes of the games, such as the ability to play as Tails and Knuckles in other games (with the exception that Knuckles won't be in CD, per Famitsu), and the Hidden Palace boss from the Sonic 2 iOS/Android remake.įamitsu reports further special features in the game, such as a Boss Rush mode, a "Mirror Mode" that flips the entire stage left to right, a "story mode" (unclear if this just refers to the animation sequences, or if it actually connects the four games), a mission mode, a museum collection, and leaderboards. The trailer also confirms the replacement of Lives with a "Medallion" system in the game's Anniversary mode (as you'll notice in the UI).

McGrail said, is there are many factors influencing mortality now that are different from before the pandemic. Statistics Canada explained it uses a statistical model to estimate weekly expected deaths based on mortality trends from 2015-19 while considering changes in age, sex and total population. Rather, they signal a need for deeper analysis. Similarly, in an e-mailed statement, Statistics Canada said unusual excess deaths don’t necessarily speak to COVID-19′s impact on Canada. Kim McGrail, a professor at the University of British Columbia’s Centre for Health Services and Policy Research, said she thinks of excess mortality as “an indication that there’s something happening that’s worth investigating,” but it doesn’t indicate what is actually happening or what to do about it.Ĭhina’s economic misery threatens global recovery from COVID-19, raising spectre of financial market chaos For example, if someone developed a serious health condition from an infection and died more than 28 days after testing positive, their death may not be considered a COVID-19 death in some jurisdictions. In addition to those that are not yet reported, there are potentially many deaths caused by COVID-19 that are not detected or not officially attributed to the disease, she added. That number is adjusted to subtract deaths from drug poisonings, suicides, mass homicide and a heat wave in B.C. Since the start of the pandemic until June, her group estimates there have been nearly 90,500 excess deaths in Canada, which is about double the number of Canadian deaths in the Second World War. “We absolutely need to know why we have historically high levels of death,” she said.Ī summer spike reminds us the pandemic isn’t over Moriarty, who is also an associate professor at the University of Toronto. What excess mortality says about the current state of the pandemic is uncertain, in part because of a slow, patchwork system of reporting deaths in Canada. That’s considerably lower than in 2022, “which was a horrific, really, really bad year in Canada, but it’s still higher than the first few years of the pandemic,” she said. Estimated excess mortality dipped in January and February, but the latest 2023 figures indicate it is about 15 per cent to 20 per cent higher than it was in 20, according to Tara Moriarty, an infectious-disease researcher and co-founder of the grassroots group COVID-19 Resources Canada. I’m starting to think this issue is that important as well. I’ve said for a long time that I’d vote for any candidate regardless of party if they ran on dissolving the electoral college. This is one of those areas that is so complex and has so many ramifications that I’d much prefer the decision to be made by experts rather than Joe-down-the-pub, but what do you do when you can’t trust the experts?) There is very little more important than how the law is interpreted. (Honestly I think this is a horrible solution but I’m not sure asking candidates ‘are you impartial?’ is a better one. If that’s going to be the case going forward then there need to be controls placed on the justices just as there is for the president. The reality is that the Supreme Court of the land is influenced by politics AGAINST the original intent. Does ANYONE think that this is true now? Anyone? I’m not interested in when it started happening, or who did what first. The Supreme Court were originally lifetime appointments (I think) to ensure that the justices didn’t need to get embroiled in partisan politics - They could be impartial without fear in their interpretation of the constitution. Anything that happens after that you can deal with. Once you decide that you're landing out your single priority is landing safely. If a low experience jumper has been told that there are preferred outs then they may make a low turn or fly over hazards just to try and reach one of those. You have a mal and get your reserve out low. so I'll just make it over that barn to the one where the owner is a friend of the DZ.' then you're much more likely to make a bad decision. If at the back of your mind you've got a little voice saying 'I CAN land in this field but the owner is going to be cross. Imagine these situations: By landing out you're already putting yourself in a more dangerous situation than normal. Once you have that information picking where you're going to land is up to you based on exactly where you are in the sky. A Dropzone will point out hazardous landing areas - lakes, shooting ranges, freeways etc, and tell you 'DON'T LAND THERE' but shouldn't ever bring the disposition of the land owner into the discussion unless they pose a direct hazard themselves. It's to worry more because it becomes a political arm without any oversight or accountability. Once the supreme court becomes a political entity the solution isn't to worry less about 1 replacement every 10 years. The SC goes back to being what it was originally intended to be. If you can remove the politics from the selection then I have no problem with lifetime term limits. That's why I suggested the chief justices should be picked anonymously by their peers rather than by the government. If he had been a political placement the way we're doing it now the amount of damage he could have done would be incalculable. John Marshall served 34 years as a chief justice. But there shouldn't be any relation between politics and the SC all - that's the point. I wouldn't be worried at all with that turnover IF the judges were selected regardless of their political leanings, but they're not, and that makes the Supreme Court a political institution as much as a legal one. There's a lag and association with current political leanings. Given the current state then you're right. What I AM concerned with is the SC nomination being more entwined with the 4-year cycle of popular/fad politics. I'm not concerned with that kind of turnover. On average there's one replacement about every 5-10 years. The Supreme Court is always going to lag a bit in the Conservative vs. If you can't get rid of one, get rid of the other. The appointments are already political AND have no time limit. But it WOULD limit the damage they could do in the long term. However, the names of her parents, as well as her sibling, are not available on media. Moreover, some reports said that her father is a businessman, where her mother is a school teacher, and this persona has a sister.

Depending on the device you use it on, Xodo can sometimes be a bit laggy. We find the thumbnail previews and Recent Files list make it easy to find the document you need, and we also appreciate the Night Mode for reading in low light conditions. Although it's optimised for Android tablets and phones, Xodo is also available for iOS and Windows, it integrates nicely with a sibling Chrome app, plus it supports stylus use and is compatible with Adobe Acrobat and other PDF viewers supporting standard PDF annotations. The app also allows you to open Microsoft Office, PowerPoint and Excel files and save them as PDFs. And you can annotate PDFs with others in real time, too. Your edits can be auto-synced with Dropbox, Google Drive and OneDrive. You can also write directly on a PDF, highlight and underline text, fill in forms, sign documents and take notes on blank PDFs. Don’t be fooled by the name: this is not just an app for reading PDFs – it lets you create and edit them as well. Want to edit PDFs on your phone or tablet? Well, Xodo PDF Reader is not only the best PDF editor for Android, and it's available to download for free. See our full pdfFiller review for mode details. A lot of these extra features won't be of use to everyone but if you do work a lot with forms, they could help you save time. You can also create fillable PDF forms from zero and send them out to be signed using the SignNow service. The extras depend on the plan you pay for, but with the more expensive plans, you do more than edit PDFs. You can also save templates, which we can see could be a nice time saver. You can also make changes to pages, including rearranging, adding extra pages, duplicating and deleting. The editing options are fairly flexible, and you can add images, logos, notes, URLs and videos. It also has tools for redacting, highlighting and drawing. When we reviewed pdfFiller, we found it made it easy to add text to PDFs and to adjust the font, colour and size of the characters. It can also edit PDFs in many different ways, including merging PDF files, splitting PDFs into separate files and converting them into. But, despite the name, it's not only for simple form filling. With an intuitive interface and simple explanatory guides, pdfFiller makes filling forms easy both for yourself and whoever you need to send the form to. For more details on pricing, see our full Adobe Acrobat review and our article download Adobe Acrobat. This gives you access to a huge range of creative tools, including Photoshop and Illustrator. You can get Adobe Acrobat Pro DC through a single-app subscription, but if you're likely to use other Adobe apps, the best value option is an All Apps Creative Cloud subscription. The latter doesn't have all of the same advanced features of the Pro DC version. And despite so many features, the interface remains clean and uncluttered, although there's also a bit of a learning curve if you’ve never used a PDF editor before.ĭon't confuse Adobe Acrobat Pro DC with the slightly cheaper Adobe Acrobat Standard DC, which is available for Windows only. This all makes Acrobat Pro DC the most flexible PDF editor around. And you can validate and fix PDFs for ISO and accessibility standards, too.

That then has to be done on the device itself by the parent. However, it's only then on that device, not in the Kids area for a child. From a practical point of view, you can send content to a Kindle devices from a browser - so if you're shopping in the Kindle Store when you buy something you can elect to send it to that device. Importantly, unlike only locking down a device with the parental control settings above, you still have to assign that content to Amazon Kids for your child - and this is a key point. If you simply used the same account and were reading the same book, it would be constantly trying to sync that book to the furthest read page, which isn't ideal when two separate people are reading it. If you both want to read The Hobbit, for example, your child's progress will be tracked separately from yours. Progress through books will also be tracked separately from your reading. There are awards and you have a reading target to encourage children to read regularly, if you have a child who works better with these types of motivations. You could opt for a pre-paid credit card, however.įrom within Amazon Kids the navigation controls work very much as they do elsewhere, so you can still go home, search, and change some settings, but it's all behind that safety barrier. If the child/Kindle has a personal account, then that account needs an email address as well as a payment method, which probably isn't what you want to do. If you're getting a new Kindle specifically for a child, then you need to decide whether you're going have it linked to their own Amazon account, or to your account. Account decisionsĪ Kindle needs to be registered to an Amazon account - this is how you get the content onto it. There's also a specific Kindle Kids Edition and Kindle Paperwhite Kids which will also talk about below. Here we're talking specifically about Kindle ebook readers, rather than Fire tablets, although in many cases, the same information applies. Whether you're buying a new Kindle specifically for a child, or letting them use one you already have, here's what you need to consider when setting-up a Kindle for your kids. There's a web browser for starters, as well as, potentially, your Amazon account through which they can buy books with wanton abandon. But a Kindle device, hooked into an Amazon account, offers a great deal of connectivity that you probably don't want your child to have.

The advantage is that you can move sediment over 100’ in distance in one rotation, which is impressive. It also allows you to relay or place material the same distance from the machine. The extended boom allows the operator to remove sediment from the stable shoreline up to 70’ out into the lake. Larger excavators are the most commonly types and extend a standard range boom from 20-30’ to 50-70’. Typically, small mini and midi excavators can extend the reach along the ground from 12-15’ to 15-25’. The reach of a standard excavator is doubled or tripled with a long reach boom. Long reach excavators are fitted with a longer boom and smaller bucket to enable it to reach a further distance. The most common type is the long reach excavator. Please note: suction tips are special order items - please allow extra time for shipping.River Sand incorporates the use of several types of specialized excavators for its mechanical dredging projects. If you need a Swivel tip instead, please contact us for pricing.Ī 3" swivel tip starts at $139.95, 5" is $159.95 and goes up to $625 for an 8" with suction breaking flap. Tips are made of thin walled plated steel tubing and feature a rolled tip which will reduce rock jams by up to 20%. Suction Tips attach to the end of a suction dredge nozzle. If you are using a hibanker dredge combo with multiple uses you can also purchase the power jet and suction nozzle so that it can be used with either configuration depending on the application.ĭredge Suction Tips - reduce rock jams! Keene DREDGE SUCTION TIPS - reduce rock jams! A dredge that is designed to work with the sluice on a stand, in shallow water, is almost always equipped with a suction nozzle. Generally speaking a dredge designed to work on flotation, with a compressor for underwater dredging, is almost always equipped as a power jet. The disadvantage is that you have two hoses that the dredge operator must deal with. The advantage of the suction nozzle system is that you can dredge in very shallow water and walk around with the suction nozzle completely out of the water without effecting the performance of the sluice. Therefore they do not work very well when working in shallow water. The disadvantage of the power jet is that the power jet and supply hose must be kept under water at all times. The power jet also allows deeper dredging because the power jet will lift material higher than a suction nozzle can push it. The advantage of the power jet is that the operator of the dredge has to only deal with one hose when he is dredging. The answer is that they each have advantages and disadvantages. Which system is better - a power jet or a suction nozzle? A vacuum is created which sucks up water and gravel but the material is pushed through the hose instead of being sucked through the hose, as in the case of the power jet. Hoses and other dredge accessories are not included.Ī suction nozzle works in a similar fashion to a power jet except instead of being attached directly to the header box the nozzle is attached at the far end of the material hose. #kesn2 outlet size: 2.0" inlet size: 1.25" Prices start at $135 for a 1.5" Suction Nozzle. Choose from 9 nozzle sizes in the drop down menu. Ideal for shallow water dredging - these Keene dredge suction nozzles are precision manufactured from thin walled plated steel tubing with machined orifices to create maximum suction pressure.

KML files can be viewed with several software programs including ArcGIS Explorer and Google Earth*. More links to free map tiles can be found (with example maps) at this website.Keyhole Markup Language (KML) is an XML language focused on geographic visualization, including annotation of maps and images. Included are shaded terrain maps, maps in different languages, outdoors maps with trails and elevation contours, and more. Use the WMS link located on this webpage.Ī number of free XYZ map tiles are available from Open Street Map. USGS world imagery can be added to QGIS as a WMS layer ( see here for a tutorial on adding WMS layers). One of those is the World Imagery map from the USGS. If Google maps do not meet your needs, there are other map services available for your use. So if the links in this tutorial no longer work you may need to do some searching to find the new links. Before any of the Google map layers for a project, you should verify that you are not violating any licensing or copyright restrictions that may be placed on the imagery.Īlso, the tile source URLs may be changed by Google at any time. Please note that the map sources used in this tutorial are a product of Google. Now you can pan, zoom, and navigate the map like any other layer.Add the basemap to your project by dragging it from the Broswer Panel into the map area or adding it from the QGIS Data Source Manager.You will now see that the new connection has been added under XYZ tiles.In this example I’ve added the URL for Google Satellite. In the new window enter a name for the new connection and provide the URL to the tiled map service (from the table above), then click OK.This will open a new window to enter the connection details. Right-click on ‘XYZ Tiles’ and select ‘New Connection’.Navigate to the QGIS Browser panel and find the XYZ tiles section.This is easy to do and is explained by the directions below. Now that we have the links to the tiled maps sources we need to add them to QGIS as XYZ tiles. Links to Google basemap layers Add XYZ Tiles to QGIS I obtained links to the maps from NextGIS and included them in the table below. They are Google Maps, Google Satellite, Google Satellite Hybrid, Google Terrain, and Google Roads. There are five different Google Maps products you can link to. The first thing you need to add Google Maps or Google Satellite to QGIS is a link to the map source. This linked example shows you how to add a basemap from another satellite imagery source as a WMS layer. On a side note, there are a lot of other basemaps you can add to QGIS. This tutorial will walk you through the process step by step. If you’re not sure how to do what I just described, don’t worry. Then add the link to the XYZ tiles in the QGIS browser. To add Google Maps to QGIS you just need a link to the tile map service layers you want to use. You can easily add these layers to QGIS as XYZ tiles. Google Maps and Google Satellite are probably the most recognized map layers in the world. The great thing is that it is very easy to add other basemap sources to QGIS. However, one of its shortcomings is that it only comes with one default basemap, Open Street Map. QGIS is a very powerful and customizable software. |
