China stock pro1/9/2024 ![]() ![]() ![]() Chinese policymakers' usual methods for steering the economy also appear to be losing effectiveness. So, even though China is still far from a recession, it's still at risk - and given concerns about how realistic these growth numbers are, it's difficult for investors to gauge just how much risk there is. That worry is justified: by World Bank estimates, a 1 percent decline in China's growth rate causes a 0.5 percent drop in global growth. But when it slows, well, everyone start to worry. When China grows, many would argue, the rest of the world also grows. While its growth rate of 6.9 percent in 2015 is enviable by American or European standards, it's the lowest the country has seen in 25 years. Economic worries pave the way for market concernsĮconomic growth is a big issue for China. Taken in tandem with a faltering Chinese economy, investors can't help but worry. While it's just one (admittedly somewhat extreme) example, Nevsky's closure exemplifies the unintended consequences of Chinese market interference. One of the key reasons? In a letter to investors, the founder said that a lack of transparency in markets like China is making it increasingly difficult to make good investments. Added to outright market interference, investors begin to lose confidence in the Chinese market as a whole.įor an indication of how bad this can get, prominent hedge fund Nevsky Capital, which returned 6,400 percent in the past two decades, recently closed its doors. There is always concern that data coming out of Chinese economic authorities and companies is not completely transparent. This kind of interference in the market is unheard of in the US, and it throws a wrench into an already-complicated valuation process. Their actions include trading suspensions, stopping initial public offerings, using government agencies to buy up index funds, limiting short sales, and even banning large individual shareholders from selling. Regulators at the Bank of China have undertaken significant measures to get a handle on recent stock market volatility. Part of the reason behind Shanghai's apparent independence is that market in China plays by its own rules. But going back 10 years shows a correlation of 0.37 between the S&P 500 and the Shanghai index. Of course, that could be a fluke based on too little data. For the correlation coefficient, 1.0 describes two markets that move completely in lockstep and zero means that the markets have no influence on each other at all. A study looking at the last two years of returns found that the correlation between the indexes (measured by a number called the correlation coefficient) was just 0.15. You might be surprised to find that, technically speaking, the Shanghai index and S&P 500 have very little in common historically. Why does the Shanghai index matter to the S&P? Mixing up the stock market If you're wondering how it all fits together, you're not alone. China has taken center stage as regulators attempt to intervene in a market that seems determined to fall, a situation that has investors in American investors just as worried. All Rights Reserved.Between plummeting oil prices, a Shanghai stock market that had to be shut down twice in as many days, and the worst start of a year in history for the S&P 500, it's been - to put it mildly - a bit of a January.

Syntorial strudent1/9/2024 ![]() The Hidden patch button hides all the controls and just lets the user hear the sound. The focused sound matching challenges involve a screen with two buttons: Hidden Patch and My Patch. While amusing the first few times, most users will probably elect to turn the optional audio feedback off. At the end of a series, overall levels of success is indicated with a three-star rating visual que and also a sound-effect of people cheering boisterously (three stars), not so enthusiastically (two stars) and so on. The result is that there is only one exact solution to these problems where the student’s attempt will match the Syntorial solution.įeedback on correctness of answers is supplied by the controls in error being highlighted in red. Filter cutoff sustain is even more restrictive with just 100% and 0%. Sustain in the amp envelope has just three settings: 100%, 20% and 0%. ![]() Filter cutoff, for example, has one notch about every octave. One thing that makes this all possible is that none of the synth controls are continuous, as would be the case in an actual instrument, but rather have a fixed number of discreet control positions. The student is asked to match these, limiting the parameter setting to only that pertinent to the topic at hand. In the first kind, a set (usually six in number) of successive example sounds are presented incorporating the behavior of the previous tutorial. In the end, we have the full-function synth seen following.īut back to the course – once a tutorial lesson has completed, the student is offered four kinds of challenges. The synth has functionality incrementally added as the lessons progress into more advanced topics. Nothing unneeded to confuse us in the early stages. The initial oscillator has a selection of saw wave and three pulse waves of approximately 50%, 30% and 10% pulse width. We see a very basic oscillator, a low-pass filter, a rudimentary amp envelope and a volume knob. In the early stages, it’s pretty bare bones, as seen in the image of one very early iteration below. The synth grows in capabilities as the course progresses. Let’s take a moment to talk about the synth. He does this in a clear and concise fashion and quite obviously spent more than a little time on the thoughtful development of the lesson scripts. In these we hear Joe Hanley narrating while demonstrating various settings on the Syntorial imbedded synth (hereafter, simply “the synth”). First, there are basic teaching lessons, or lectures, if you prefer. Syntorial approaches teaching by using several kinds of interactive sessions. If you’re starting completely from nothing, the free but well-appointed softsynth, Crystal, ( ) should do just fine. The iPad is also supported, but my experience with Syntorial was on a PC, I cannot comment on the effectiveness of using this software on an iPad.įor maximum benefit, you should also have at least one moderately capable subtractive synth available – it could be a software synth or an actual physical instrument with knobs/sliders/switches and a keyboard. Those with a MIDI keyboard and a MIDI-computer interface will benefit, but such is not a requirement. Syntorial contains a teaching synth and requires nothing more than a sound card to function on a PC or a Mac. Joe was a guest writer for SoundBytes, allowing us to adapt a web tutorial he authored for these pages. Syntorial is the brainchild of Joe Hanley, who established Audible Genius to pursue commercializing it. But make no mistake, unless you are already an extremely accomplished sound designer, you will be challenged and you will learn much as a result. The more experienced student will breeze through some of them, such as envelope design. It will come down to how fast you cruise through the various lessons. On the other hand, if you’re an experienced and confident preset tweaker (and I put myself in that category), trust me – you can still gain immeasurable amounts of sound design competencies by refining your skills courtesy of Syntorial. Syntorial is suitable for the total neophyte. If you don’t even know what “subtractive” means, don’t worry. Syntorial will take you step by step through the often challenging task of learning how to program a typical subtractive synth. Syntorial supplies that to superb effect. Learning synth programming can be done from a book, but it’s much more difficult to learn nuances without immediate feedback. In this review we are going to take a detailed look at Syntorial, interactive teaching software that can act as your own private tutor, on call at any hour of the day or night, which can teach you synthesizer sound design. Private, Personal Instruction at a Community College Price Do you want to learn synthesizer sound design in the most direct and accessible way possible? Look no further than the marvelous Syntorial teaching software.

Contacts journal crm tutorial1/9/2024 The most annoying part is the profile fields on the Mac version only shows one line so if I type something long, I can only view it on my iPhone. Exporting creates a PDF that I think is Times New Roman. From what I’ve read in the reviews, ContactsJournalCRM has looked the same for years. My biggest problem is.It’s so ugly! You’re unable to change font color, sizes, type face, etc. Also like that it syncs across my Mac, iPad and iPhone. The map tab is really cool to see where contacts are, really nice when traveling and realizing there’s someone nearby you can meet for a quick meeting or meal. I really like the export feature so I can see all my logs for each person on one sheet. I’ve tried several personal and business CRM apps and this one is the most simple to use. Highly recommended you give ContactsJournalCRM a try. Other than these issues I am extremely happy with all the capabilities of this Contacts Journal app and love the fact that this company is so responsive. Again, tech support has been very responsive to give me some things to try directly in the Apple Shortcuts app to get it to work right. Also, Siri add new contact doesn’t actually complete the action for me on my iPhone. They didn’t have it set up to auto delete their app contact records to match iCloud for fear that you might also lose To-Dos, Logs and other information that is only in their app. Tech support was very responsive and gave me some work arounds and said they will provide some user options for syncing with iCloud in a future update. When I used auto sync on ContactsJournalCRM it brings all my old deleted records back giving me a total of 216 contacts again even though I hand deleted these records on this CJ app too. I Sync’d iCloud with google account to 168 records. I deleted contacts on phone app to 168 records. Best $25 ever spent!!Īuto sync with iCloud doesn’t work the way I would like it to work. I love ContactsJournalCRM!! My company has encourage the other reps to download and use ContactsJournalCRM and they will reimburse them. It’s complete with all customer information and I can also schedule a follow up or “To Do” for each call that notifies me when due or past due. my entire week of sales call notes to my boss by email. Best part is, at the end of the week, I can just “Export” and can sort by date, logs, etc. Now, I log notes after each sales call, can attach a picture or quote (pdf) to the account profile and or log notes, edit, add or delete important information to review before each sales call, add a “color tag” to each account, to visually see when I’m scrolling through customer list, who is a Prospect, Existing, Cold Call or No opportunity customer. I got tired of hand writing my call notes on file folders after each sales call, after each customer visit and then have to re-type again, a weeks worth of sales call notes to turn in to my boss.Īfter downloading 10 different CRM free trial apps, this was the very best for what I wanted to do and use it for. ![]() My small company didn’t have a CRM when I came on board from a large corporation.

Beginning this April, coffee lovers nationwide can choose from an Iced Turtle Macchiato, Turtle Macchiato or Iced Turtle Coffee at participating U.S. The Turtle coffee beverages are seasonal, café-quality drinks featuring a delicious blend of chocolaty, caramel and hazelnut flavors. This continues McDonald’s commitment to McCafé by giving customers more quality coffee experiences, flavors and choices. I used this recipe because it’s dank af, but any kind of thick caramel sauce will do.McDonald’s announced Wednesday its celebrating the flavors of coffee with the new McCafé Turtle beverages. STEP 5: Drizzle with one teaspoon of caramel sauce. As I mentioned above, just use half of the milk and top off the cup with strongly brewed regular coffee. Here, I used espresso pods from Starbucks’ Verismo machine.ĭon’t have an espresso machine? No worries. If you do happen to have an espresso machine or a pod-style coffee machine that can pull shots of espresso, then congrats! Just pour two shots over the icy vanilla milk mixture. Starbucks obviously uses shots of espresso pulled from a multi-thousand dollar machine that literally no one can buy, but we can make do without. ![]() If you’re using regularly brewed coffee, then I’d go with four ounces of milk to up the coffee:milk ratio. I used soy milk, but you can use whatever suits your fancy.If you’re using espresso, eight ounces of milk is perfect. STEP 2: On top of the syrup, pour in the milk of your choice. Otherwise, you can use any vanilla flavored coffee syrup Courtesy of Morgan Nielsen You can get it from any Starbucks store, as long as the store has enough on hand to spare one. I used Starbucks brand vanilla syrup, which you can get for around $12 for a one-liter bottle. STEP 1: Add vanilla syrup into your cup or glass. Happy sipping! Iced Caramel Macchiato Copycat Recipe Courtesy of Morgan Nielsen With all of that being said, read on to learn the witchcraft behind this tasty beverage to save yourself a few bucks and a few minutes of standing in line by making it yourself at home. #SpoonTip: Running late? Don’t want to exert the effort to mix the drink up yourself? Ask for your iced caramel macchiato “upside down.” Sure, it totally defeats the purpose of a “macchiato”, but you were probably going to do it yourself anyway. But have no fear- a few swirls of the straw and you’re all set to go. Although this idea makes a lot more sense in the hot form of the drink and you’re not really supposed to drink all of the sugary milk before you hit the espresso, it’s all about aesthetic in the iced form. The word “macchiato” means “to mark/stain” in Italian, which is why this drink is layered with milk on the bottom and the espresso on top. This will definitely make it easier on the wallet, since a bottle of could set you back $65 or more. ![]() As an added bonus, it doesn’t require any impossible to acquire syrups or sauces to make it taste like the real deal. Even though it sounds fancy, I’m here to tell you that it’s actually super simple to make at home. ![]() By adding your email you agree to get updates about Spoon University HealthierĪs a barista (and certified coffee master, thank ya very much) at Starbucks in sunny South Florida, I can confidently say that I’ve made my fair share of iced Caramel Macchiatos.

Final fantasy 71/9/2024 This journey is no longer set in stone, and this isn’t a remake anymore. With the reveal of the Remake project’s second game, Rebirth perfectly encapsulates where the series can go from here. In many ways, Remake is a cleverly misleading title calling it a sequel is more fitting because it trusts that the player experienced the original. And now, we are with the party in their battle to change those events. Players of the original not only experienced its story, but it became a part of them. Narratives revolving around characters changing their fate is a popular trope, but this is the first time in any work that I’ve been an active participant in that fate. And Remake isn’t just retelling that story - it’s putting the power in our hands to change that future. I’ve been desperate to save Aerith from Sephiroth’s blade ever since I played Final Fantasy VII. We aren’t watching the party fight to prevent the upcoming destruction of Meteor the player is actively part of wanting to change that future, a future that they experienced 25 years ago. ![]() It’s hardly the first time we’ve seen characters battling against a future that’s supposedly set in stone, but what makes Remake so special is that players aren’t just fighting to change events that have been explained to them through exposition. Beyond that, it becomes clear that the events of the original game are not set in stone, pushing our beloved cast to fight to change the script. Towards the end, a mind-blowing plot twist reveals that Sephiroth is aware of his loss in the original version of Final Fantasy VII and refuses to let himself fail again. Small hints are sprinkled throughout the game, suggesting that something different is going on something that original fans would not have recognized. Spoiler alert! Stop reading if you haven’t played Remake yet.Ĭloud, Aerith, Tifa, Barrett and Red XIII fight against fate itself in the last few chapters of Remake. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth narrativeįinal Fantasy VII Remake’s finale is jaw-dropping, and its sequel being titled “Rebirth” is brilliant. It's probably a good idea to play it before the launch of Rebirth, especially if you've played the original Final Fantasy VII. It acts as a prequel to Final Fantasy VII and is a remake of the original Crisis Core game that released on PSP. CRISIS CORE –FINAL FANTASY VII– REUNION launched on December 13. |
