![]() And intensity fades the full effect back toward the original. H/V Ratio changes the ratio of horizontal to vertical. In addition, there are four sliders to adjust the effect. Keystoning offers three options: vertical, horizontal and both simultaneously, which is great for windows and artwork. The two options correct a horizontal stretch and a diagonal stretch. So to correct an image, you have three options:Īnamorphic corrections just require a click for the kind of correction you want to make. That's a welcome feature because you can fill in corners with modern image editing software so you don't have to live with a tight crop. Some applications make this crop for you automatically but ViewPoint lets you see your options so you can make a manual crop. The keystoning corrections require a crop to return the image to a rectangular format. Straighten the image either horizontally or vertically. The correction takes a bit of time to process the image. You can correct each problem individually or both at one time. And if you are not standing square to the building, the horizontals will converge as they run away from you. The Keystoning tool corrects that convergence. Pointing your camera up at the front of a building causes the vertical lines in the image to converge near the top. And restores the shape of their heads, too. This tool makes them circles again (almost instantly). If the guys on the ends were holding plates, they wouldn't be circles but ovals. The typical example is a group of people. This tool corrects the geometric distortion caused by a wide angle lens on object at the far edges of the image. ViewPoint brings a few tools to the party: And that can, in fact, change the meaning of the image. The second meaning is the photographer's position.īy changing perspective, ViewPoint does indeed seem to move the camera position. The first meaning of ViewPoint is the meaning of a photo. ![]() That all worked as it should in the modern world.ĭxO told us the name has a double meaning reflecting the changes the software can make to an image. In fact, we were pleased to see the installer found our plug-ins folder and recognized which applications we could use ViewPoint in.Īnd we were glad ViewPoint alerted us to the update, too. We had no issues with the installation or update. We installed a beta version of the software, both the standalone and plug-in flavors. A subsequent Save command in ViewPoint returns you to your main application. It warns you that you're leaving your main application to use ViewPoint. The plug-in, which is included with the standalone version, works in Photoshop CS3 to CS6 and Lightroom 3 and 4. DxO expects it to be compatible with Windows 8 when released, as well. ViewPoint runs on Mac OS X version 10.5 through 10.8 and Windows XP/Vista/7. The software is easy to use and, based on technology that's been in the company's flagship product Optics Pro, very reliable. Better to blame the camera than you.ĭxO's ViewPoint makes it simple to fix these things and keep them looking natural. Even if you happen to get it right, it looks disturbingly unnatural. It's notoriously difficult to successfully correct them. If you dare try to correct these geometric distortions in your image editor with a Perspective control, say, you probably didn't dare twice. If it's a group of people, the guys on the end will have their heads reshaped in grotesque ways. That's the distortion of things at the left and right edges of the image. If you do that to people by shooting from a low angle, their heads are ridiculously tiny compared to their hands, say.īut the one no one laughs about is becoming increasingly common as zoom lenses get wider and wider. Unfortunately all the verticals that are obviously parallel in real life, converge almost comically in your photo as they rise. You're standing in front of a famous building, you whip out your camera and, point up to include the roof line, you shoot. The most common distortion is one you may not even be bothered by: converging verticals. This information applies to version(s): 5ĭxO PhotoLab is available in two new editions, ESSENTIAL and ELITE, which support the same camera equipment (with exception of Fujifilm X-Trans-Sensors *), but offer a different number of features.That pretty much sums up our smile as we sat through a briefing on DxO Labs' new tool to fix some distortions we've all had to live with for a while.

![]() ![]() They’re seeing our vision and that is so exciting,” Jenna says. People come in and fully enjoy themselves. “We created an environment that we wanted to hang out in, ourselves. My advice? Enjoy it for what it is: an upscale bar with great food, creative cocktails, live music and a wonderful group of people running it. In fact, it’s what makes this new downtown restaurant and bar so great. There are many sides to Tipsy Piano Bar and that’s ok. Although Tipsy Piano Bar does not take reservations, they will make exceptions for groups of twenty or more. With a ticket in hand, they’ll receive a free appetizer just for stopping in. “Everyone is looking for a great place to watch the game.” Also on Sundays, Tipsy stays open late so guests of the Olympia Symphony Orchestra can stop by after the show. Jonas says it was unanimous to offer games. Plus, they offer Happy Hour all-day with game-day specials, too. Sundays are special at Tipsy as they open early for Seahawks game viewing. On Friday and Saturday evenings, you can even sit at the piano, offering requests, too. It all depends on who’s sitting at the bench. You might hear jazz or classics one night and ragtop or rock-n-roll the next. While you wait for those outstanding cocktails and homemade specialties, enjoy live piano music every evening at Tipsy, kicking off around dinner time. Even the chicken strips are hand breaded, which does mean food takes a little longer.” Everything is made from scratch – the drinks and the food. Our chef is amazing and will go above and beyond to serve people. If you have special dietary restrictions, Jenna says to just ask. On the Tipsy menu you will find wonderful salads, jambalaya, red beans and rice, traditional Po’Boys, sliders, a custom grilled cheese and many other choices. Jenna shares that she hears people think they only have fried food, but that’s hardly the case. When it comes to food, there are plenty of options. And if you have special requests, just ask and they will try to accommodate you. With a variety of menu options it’s easy to find something you’ll love. Jonas adds, “We want to make sure we have everything ready for a large party so we can give them great service.” For these larger groups, guests can also pre-order appetizers to make service smooth and fast. ![]() “In a bar environment, it’s hard to time when people are going to finish their drinks and when they’re going to be done enjoying the piano.” However, for parties of twenty or more they can reserve space. Tipsy does not take reservations, something that surprises some. Some cocktails might have ten ingredients.” Jenna suggests relaxing in the plush seating while your server waits at the bar and delivers your refreshments to you. Everything is mixed, muddled, strained, poured to order. However, Jenna shares that “craft cocktails take longer to make. Simple concoctions – rum and coke or gin and tonic – are quickly made. Scout out a table, pick out a drink, and either wait for your server or head to the bar yourself. “You walk in the door and you seat yourself wherever you’re comfortable.” “It is first come, first served,” she says. As Jenna explains, this is intentional, matching the atmosphere they aim to create. Also, don’t expect someone to seat you at a table. On Friday and Saturday evenings you will be greeted by a doorman, however there’s no cover charge and definitely no dress code. Bartender Cherise (left) and Bar Manager Korey (right) are always creating new and interesting cocktails for Tipsy. Tipsy is truly like nothing else Olympia has ever seen, and that’s on purpose. With their swanky seating, subdued lighting, live piano playing and great food, there is a lot to take in – and a lot that is offered. ![]() Owners Jenna and Jonas Rodriguez say their bar often gets mistaken for being a formal restaurant, but the downtown piano bar is exactly what they envisioned. You may have heard friends talking about their great cocktails, delicious food and cool vibe, but haven’t experienced it for yourself. The first time you walk into Tipsy Piano Bar in downtown Olympia you might not know what to expect. well its scify and not a Frogotten Realms Setting i guess - still the Goldbox Engine.Īll characters in a SSi series are transferable between games which means you can import your party from EOB1 to EOB2 and then EOB3 to play through the entire series. When youll see a carved dagger on the wall, place Dagger there, and then go through one of the walls. Watch out - theres some false walls and illusions here. Use levers, step on panels and find Silver Key. What the Forgotten Realms Archives do not contain is Lands of Lore, the Throne of Chaos, because it was the game Westwood made after the departure from SSi and Buck Rodgers Countdown to Doomsday and Matrix Cubed, because. First pick up the Silver Key and go East. Pools of Darkness is the most technological advanced one and still quite beautiful in retro VGA look, it was very highly polished and meant as the crowning jewel of the "goldbox" AD&D games. 28) Stepping on the Pressure Plate causes an illusory wall to appear on the west wall. 27) Two Zombies and a dagger inscribed on the west wall. Encamp here, and have characters memorize and pray for spells. This is the cave-in area where you begin the game. ![]() Monsters: Kobolds and Leeches inhabit this level. The best game of the series is Eye of Beholder 2, the third part wasn't done by Westwood anymore - its a good game as is Eye of the beholder 1, still the second entry is by far the best of them, as Curse of the Azure Bonds was for the Forgotten Realms settings. The walls to the south and east are illusions. Level 1 - Upper Sewer Level (Map 1) Walls: Red brick walls covered with slime. ![]() If you can get hold of the Forgotten Realms Archives ISOs (they still sell them at GOG i think) it contains all that dossy SSi golden age stuff, including Eye of Beholder 1-3, Dungeon Hack (the last iteration of the engine randomly generating dungeons), Pool of Radiance, Curse of the Azure Bonds, Secret of the Silver Blades, Pools of Darkness, Champions of Krynn, Death Knights of Krynn, Dark Queen of Krynn, Gateway to the Savage Frontier and Treasures of the Savage Frontier, if you are into retro RPGs there is hardly a better deal, it also contains all manuals and paragraph entries referenced in the games. ![]() Markets and Cointop: 2 GUI and CLI apps to monitor Cryptocurrencies Screen shotsįinally, in case you want to continue delving into the DeFi scope on our website « FromLinux », we recommend exploring these other previous posts: Once installed, it can be executed through the Applications Menu from his GNU / Linux under the name "Binance". «sudo dpkg -i Descargas/binance*.deb» Use ![]() "deb" (for our practical case) we can install it using the command "Dpkg" o "Apt" As follows: InstallationĪlready downloaded the package.

This request will go to your nearest Internet gateway with an RSVP server. Expecting to receive it, you send an RSVP request before the broadcast (you'll need a special client program or perhaps your browser includes one) to allocate sufficient bandwidth and priority of packet scheduling for the program. Let's assume that a particular video program is to be multicast at a certain time on Monday evening. RSVP also supports unicast (one source to one destination) and multi-source to one destination transmissions. ![]() ![]() When the program starts, it will be multicast to those specific users who have reserved routing priority in advance. With RSVP, people who want to receive a particular Internet "program" (think of a television program broadcast over the Internet) can reserve bandwidth through the Internet in advance of the program and be able to receive it at a higher data rate and in a more dependable data flow than usual. The basic routing philosophy on the Internet is "best effort," which serves most users well enough but isn't adequate for the continuous stream transmission required for video and audio programs over the Internet. RSVP is part of the Internet Integrated Service (IIS) model, which ensures best-effort service, real-time service, and controlled link-sharing. RSVP (Resource Reservation Protocol) is a set of communication rules that allows channels or paths on the Internet to be reserved for the multicast (one source to many receivers) transmission of video and other high- bandwidth messages. ![]() What makes Pomodoro Technique so effective?

It was a lonely existence with Tom rarely home. Petty rented a small house in Sherman Oaks in the San Fernando Valley and Jane started having babies - two girls - but this wasn't the life that she envisioned. Tom didn't want to, but honored his mother's request to do 'the right thing'.Ĭalifornia was everything he dreamed it would be. Jane insisted they get married before they left Florida. The plan evolved to head for the promised land – Hollywood. Stevie Nicks has not yet issued a statement on the death of her longtime friend Tom Petty.Smoking cigarettes and 'herb,' playing songs and talking about how to make a record demo was a daily ritual with band members. "She came into my life like a rocket, just refusing to go away,'" Petty once said. Tom Petty and Stevie Nicks' friendship lasted for four decades as the two supported one another through divorce, depression, and drug addiction. "Tom looked at me and said, 'We had our times.'" "I pushed on this question, saying to, after he told me they weren't a couple, 'You sure sound like a couple,'" Zanes recalled. "It's probably the most beautiful piece of jewelry a man has ever given me, ever."īut Petty biographer Warren Zanes told Salon he "pushed" the couple question to Tom when interviewing him, and the rock legend's response opened up more questions than answers. It goes with me everywhere," Stevie gushed. ![]() "Tom made me a little platinum sheriff's badge that had 24-karat gold and diamonds across the top and said 'To Our Honorary Heartbreaker, Stevie Nicks.' On the back it says 'To the Only Girl in Our Band.' I keep it on my black velvet top hat. According to Rolling Stone, Stevie once talked about 27 shows she did with Tom while on tour with him in 2006. They became so close that Tom later gave Stevie a memento she would cherish forever. ![]() Petty and Nicks both juggled fame with drug addiction. "Had Tom Petty called me up one day and said, 'If you want to leave Fleetwood Mac to be in the Heartbreakers, there's a place for you,' I might well have done it," Stevie told Rolling Stone. While Stevie Nicks already had her own band with Fleetwood Mac, her devotion to Tom Petty has been well documented. It's about a lot of strange things all mushed into one song." But that song is about Tom Petty, it's about the death of John Lennon. "And I do it every single time I end my set, you know. Tom Petty was also a heavy influence on one of Nicks' most famous solo songs, "Edge of Seventeen," which got its name from a conversation the rock goddess had with Tom's then-wife, Jane. But in those days, nobody trusted that sort of thing and we just kept thinking, 'What does she want from us?'" We didn't quite know whether to like Stevie or not, because we kind of saw this big corporate rock band, Fleetwood Mac, which was wrong, they were actually artistic people. "And it was her mission in life that I should write her a song. "And she was this absolutely stoned-gone, huge fan." "Stevie came to me around '78," Petty said, according to American Songwriter. Some of my best musical memories of her are sitting on the couch and just playing the guitar while she sings." I've known her since 1978 and she's insisted on being in my life. "Have you got a couple of hours? She's a good friend. When asked to summarize his friendship with Stevie Nicks, Petty once described the relationship to the Toronto Sun. Nicks and Petty had a 40-year friendship which was spearheaded by the Fleetwood Mac songstress.
