Crossover definition networking8/30/2023 ![]() Any other between-rack cable run falls in this category. The line that runs from you to the telco's rack is a cross-connect. ![]() Consider the uplink to a network provider. In other words, if you rent a cage, you can run cables betweeen your various racks and they are not really considered "cross connects".īut typically a user facility is a rack. Audio Mixer Circuit, Operational Amplifier Schematic.A cross-connect is any connection between facilities provided as separate units by the datacenter. Audio Dual Channel Amplifier Circuit, Operational Amplifier Schematic. Audio Amplifier Circuit, Operational Amplifier Schematic. Loudness Adjustment Circuit, for low volume bass. Midrange Adjustment Control, for more control. Treble Control standard passive high frequency adjustment. Audio Base Control, standard passive low frequency adjustment. The pages provide schematic diagrams for both passive and active circuits, and in some cases a passive circuit that is also used with an active circuit. In any event because the preference is almost user defined, no values are used in the circuit schematic above. Of course some home entertainment speakers, having only one speaker or two of the same type my not have a cross-over network at all. A set of KL555A have the crossover frequencies stated at 800Hz, 5000Hz, also with a tone selector. The crossover network also states a 12dB / octive change. The crossover frequencies are stated at 700Hz, 5000Hz and 10000Hz. The KL777A has a tone selector which changes the sound from soft, normal, or clear. Remember much of how a speaker sounds depends on the room it's placed in and of course the enclosure or cabinet that's used.Īmong the speakers the editor uses include two 4-way, 6-speaker, KL-777A speakers from Kenwood covering the 25 - 22,000Hz audio frequency range. However almost any common value around those ranges will do depending on how fast, or slow, you want the crossover to take place between the speakers and the types of speaker used. ![]() ![]() Reducing the circuit could just leave the capacitor in circuit with the speaker forming a voltage divider.Ĭommon values to use include 1mH for the inductors and 16uF for the capacitors. The series capacitor C2 blocks or attenuates low frequencies from reaching the speaker, while the inductor L2 passes high frequencies to the speaker. The high-pass filter is comprised of inductor L2 and capacitor C2, and is designed to pass high frequencies to a tweeter. So at low frequencies the capacitor passes all the energy to the speaker, but as the frequency grows more energy is lost over the inductor, passing less energy to the speaker. At the same time the impedance of the parallel capacitor C1 is higher at lower frequencies. The series inductor tends to block high frequencies, while passing low frequencies. The low-pass filter is comprised of inductor L1 and capacitor C1, and is designed to pass low frequencies to a bass speaker or woofer. This particular crossover network uses two passive components for each filter.

Resolutioners at the gym8/30/2023 ![]() ![]() The happy couple on our honeymoon.Īs you can see from this picture, I wasn’t lean. I stopped being insanely sore after every workout, and I began to gain confidence in what I was doing.īy my wedding, I had shed all 30 pounds of fat I had accumulated. ![]() Not huge, drastic changes, but small, incremental changes. Eventually, I was no longer a “resolutioner”. The winter turned into spring, and the resolutioners all left. I remember feeling out of place, but being determined to keep at it. I remember being envious of the lifters who were obviously stronger and leaner than I was. I remember walking into the gym and picking up a pair of dumbbells to do some incline bench presses, and being aware of my huge gut which was peeking out from under my too-small tee shirt. ![]() It was comparable to having a large, winter jacket on all the time.Ģ005 was going to be the year I turned it all around. I was carrying about 80 pounds of excess fat– no wonder I was always sweating. Even sitting down to dinner would cause me to have to wipe my face with a napkin. ![]() Doing any sort of activity would cause me to break out into a soaking sweat. That was probably the most humiliating part. I had constant heartburn, asthma, allergies, and I was sick often. I had eaten myself into a situation where I had gained around a pound of fat per week.Īll of a sudden, I understood why I felt so shitty. I had gained 33 pounds of fat in 8 months. The first time I weighed myself on the gym’s scale, an unreal number stared back at me. I was getting married in July of that year, and I was determined to not be the “fat groom with a beautiful wife”. I didn’t realize it at the time, but our high school and college coaches were woefully under trained in how to properly lift.īut I gave it my best shot. I played baseball for a few years at Eastern Michigan, and we had spent some time pumping iron during the offseasons. The time when we all take a look at ourselves and try to embark on the path to self-improvement. This was to be expected the gym was brand new and it was the busiest time of the year. I wandered into my new gym shortly after the new year in 2005. We went the next day and signed the paperwork. “Hey, honey,” I said to Kate, “ You wanna go sign up at that new gym that just opened up? I think it’s time to start working out again.” I lifted my shirt and looked at my muffin top pouring over the belt line. They barely buttoned up – and they were a 42″ waist. Grandma had gotten my waist measurement from my Mom. My grandma had sent me a pair of khakis via Fed Ex as a Christmas gift. The final straw came when I received a package in the mail. By Christmas, I had no clue what I weighed, as we didn’t own a scale, but I knew it wasn’t good. I had graduated weighing about 250 pounds. Which often meant having a bag of chips by my side as I watched television. So, what did I do when faced with the extra time? I went from working retail 20 hours per week and student teaching 40 hours per week to just working my normal job. I actually found myself with more time on my hands than I did during my senior year. I no longer had classes to walk to, papers and projects to complete at night, and the stress of the university to keep me busy. It didn’t take long for the pounds to pile on. My friend Hutch is the baby-faced ladies’ man…… Our culinary expertise consisted of cooking frozen pizzas, making grilled cheese sandwiches, and deciding which Me, 2003. (You know what I mean – it was the first apartment either of us lived in which didn’t have 40-ounce beer bottles as decorations.)Ĭonsidering it was our first time preparing meals for ourselves on a regular basis, our skills in the kitchen were non existent. I got a strange kick out of waking up in the morning, working my 8 hours, and driving home to spend time with my fiance in our first “real” apartment. I was excited to be a part of the “working class”. I had graduated from college 8 months prior and had started my career as a 6th grade teacher. During the Christmas season, 2004, I was in the worst shape of my life. ![]() Tuna noodle salad recipe8/30/2023 ![]() ![]()
Best use of chatbot examples8/30/2023 ![]() ![]() If you analyze your support tickets, most of them will be about answered questions that are already in your resources. Chatbots can pull answers to queries from your knowledge base and share them with your prospects in a wink.Ĭhatbots for answering support queries: Just like prospects, your customers also don't want to spend time going through your support documents to get clarity on what they should do when they come across any challenge with your product. Even though most answers are probably available on your site, they might not want to spend time searching for them. Your prospects will have a ton of questions when they look around and peruse your content. Also, combining them with personalized recommendations can help visitors learn more about your general offerings and make purchases.Ĭhatbots for answering queries: Answering product questions comes during the support phase, which we will discuss later in the 'Chatbot use cases for customer support' section. Getting visitors to engage with you solves half of marketing's challenge, and chatbots share almost half of that load. With all the personal insights available today, you can set up chatbots to trigger a personalized message. If visitors aren't initiating contact, you can use chatbots to trigger a proactive message and nudge them.Ĭhatbots for personalization: Personalized marketing is the way to go, as generic mass marketing campaigns don't work as well anymore. With multiple options built in, chatbots simulate humans and don't make the visitors feel alone. ![]() For example, news websites currently announce their top news via chatbots to turn visitors' attention to that particular info.Ĭhatbots for lead generation: Instead of using traditional passive forms to generate leads, you can use chatbots. Also, if you want to make any announcement to your visitors, such as festival offers, year-end offers, or any other sort, you can make the chatbots do that. Having a chatbot can help them navigate and get the info faster. Not everyone will be patient enough to go through ever nook and cranny of your site to find what they want. Likewise, chatbots can be used in the digital world to navigate them around your site. Nowadays, chatbots are used in most of these processes in the marketing funnel.Ĭhatbots for navigation and announcements: In physical stores, you can have your personnel direct visitors where they want to go and make the purchase. ![]() In any organization, marketing has its role cut out: spreading the word, bringing in visitors, engaging prospects, and generating leads. That's what we're going to discuss in detail here. Chatbots have a plethora of functionality and use cases for every department and industry around us. Also, you don't have to lose prospects visiting you outside your business hours as chatbots work 24*7. They save your organization a lot of money. As mentioned above, unlike support specialists, chatbots can handle a huge volume at once and are scalable across organizations. So, a chatbot is essential for today's businesses. Because having a human operator in place isn't always viable or scalable, chatbots are especially helpful to startups and SMBs. Initially designed as an entertaining way to see if a computer program can simulate humans, chatbot use cases have been extended to various domains over the years.Īt large, they're used as the first line of communication in customer-facing industries, as most visitors look for simple clarifications when interacting with a site. It uses artificial intelligence (AI), Natural Language Processing (NLP), and machine learning (ML) to learn and refine its communication. What is a chatbot, and why are they essential?Ī chatbot is a computer program that simulates human conversations via text or voice. ![]() Cable crossover alternative reddit8/30/2023 ![]() Using those websites, I was able to score two kitchen chairs (those exact ones are sold for $125 each), a desk and chair (the exact set is sold for $325), a nightstand (this sells for $175), and a few other decorative items (that in total would have cost me $400). The user mentioned websites like Freecycle or Buy Nothing, where people are giving things away. There are many websites out there where you can buy other people's used stuff, but thanks to a user on Reddit, I learned an interesting way to really save money: get other people's stuff for free. Use websites that give away things for free When I went back to add up how much I would have spent not buying in bulk and buying things every week instead, I realized that in just six months, I had saved over $850. I spent a total of $200 on 20 items, ranging from toiletries to paper towels, frozen foods, and cleaning supplies, and have been able to use those items over the course of the year so far. I went to a store where I could buy some groceries and household items in bulk. I'd figure out the space issue if I could save some money. After reading a tip from a Reddit user on how buying in bulk saved them cash, though, I decided to do the same. I never thought about buying things in bulk, mostly because of storage issues. I live in a tiny apartment in New York City and it does not have a lot of cabinet or closet space. I also decided to stay open to suggestions from friends and family, which is how I started reading financial advice on Reddit.Ī friend of mine suggested I scroll through some different personal finance subreddits, and after spending hours doing that, I walked away with interesting and unique advice that's helped me save an extra $2,500 this year already. I've listened to podcasts from people who aren't experts but have made financial mistakes over the years. I started scrolling through financial advice on TikTok and found great tips on how to save more, invest smarter, and carefully vet cryptocurrency opportunities. While some of that content comes from traditional experts, like financial advisors, accountants, and my bookkeeper, I've also found myself exploring alternative resources. ![]() ![]() Because of that, I spend a lot of quality time every week consuming strategies, tips, and advice that can help me pay off credit card debt, save more cash, fund my retirement accounts, and invest.

Walliams also delivered the first “golden moment” of the series, a new segment where each judge surprises an unsuspecting act, nominated without their knowledge, and invites them to audition at the London Palladium. Sunday’s episode also saw 13-year-old Dante Marvin bring humour to the stage, as he performed a comedy song about his brittle bone disease, which has caused him to break 97 bones. ![]() He said: “One thing I have to tell you though, I kind of like a granite top, I like a waste disposal unit, I want 25% off and you get this,” as he pressed the buzzer.īlake looked ecstatic as Cowell took to the stage to hug and congratulate him. ![]() ![]() He added: “I know it’s a bit of a cliche but after what everybody’s gone through over the last couple of years, boy we needed this show back on air, we needed acts like you.”Īhead of his audition, Blake had joked with Cowell that he would give him a good deal on a new kitchen if he pressed the golden buzzer, so when the moment arrived Cowell carried on the gag. You made it all seem so effortless and you’ve got a wonderful, so likeable personality.”Ĭowell said Blake was “super confident” and the first person to ever make a joke about Covid-19 which was actually funny. He added: “A comedy superstar is born tonight. I thought ‘You may be a nine out of 10 now but you were a minus two at King’s Cross’.”Ĭomedian and judge David Walliams described the sketch as “brilliantly funny and original”. I was so impressed I clapped it and she looked down on me like ‘ew’. He also joked about bizarre happenings on the London Underground, saying: “Couple of weeks ago I saw a woman and she was doing her whole make-up, a couple of stops later she looked like a whole new person. During his stand-up routine, Blake brought humour to everything from naming his newborn Pfizer, nicknamed Pfiesha, as she was a pandemic baby, and the funny bickering arguments he gets into with his fiancee. When asked by Cowell if he had ever lost confidence in his act, Blake admitted he had, but that he was inspired by his family and wanted to teach his 12-year-old son, who was in the audience, to believe in himself. Reality TV supremo Cowell told Axel Blake, a 33-year-old property maintenance manager from west London, that the country “needed acts like him” after the difficult couple of years everyone has been through due to the pandemic. "This was, I think, my favorite audition so far.A comedian has won over judge Simon Cowell with his sharp wit on Britain’s Got Talent and secured his coveted golden buzzer. "I think something about your energy, from the second you came on, and your determination, was everything," Simon said. And then we would take all these moves we have and bring them to the train for money."Īfter their mind-blowing audition, Simon sang his praises for the WAFFLE Crew. "So we would put ourselves in the most safe environments, which were these dance centers," he explained. "We're all from different neighborhoods in New York City, and where we grew up at was really rough," dancer Tyree Sowell shared. The 60-year-old judge pressed the buzzer for the WAFFLE Crew dancers on Tuesday night (June 16) during the latest episode of auditions on America's Got Talent.īefore their performance, the Bronx-based group of street performers and subway dancers opened up about growing up in a difficult part of the country, and how it brought them all together. ![]() Moon phase today8/30/2023 ![]() ![]() The Full Moon in the month of October is also sometimes called a Blood Moon in many North American cultures. The first tetrad of the 21st century took place in 2003-2004, the second was in 2014–2015, and the next will be in 2032–2033, with the following eclipses: The current century- 2001 to 2100-will have eight tetrads. For example, the years between 15 did not have any tetrads, whereas the next 250 years-from 1909 to 2156-will have 17 tetrads. Some have several lunar tetrads, while others do not have any. Italian astronomer Giovanni Schiaparelli calculated that the occurrence of lunar tetrads varies over centuries. Other doomsday prophecies that fell short How Often Do Lunar Tetrads Happen? Some even called the eclipses Blood Moons after a statement in the Book of Joel in the Hebrew Bible, that referred to the Sun turning dark and the Moon turning red before the second coming of Jesus. The 2014–2015 lunar tetrad gathered a lot of attention because of claims by some religious organizations that the eclipses in the tetrad were a sign of the end times. This means that lunar tetrads are rare occurrences, leading some to attach special, even religious, significance to these events. Usually, only about one in three lunar eclipses are total, and about four to five total eclipses can be seen from any single location on Earth in a decade. The eclipses in a tetrad occur about six months apart with five uneclipsed Full Moons between them. The term Blood Moon is also sometimes used to refer to four total lunar eclipses that happen in the span of two years, a phenomenon astronomers call a lunar tetrad. Red wavelengths are least affected by this effect, so the light reaching the Moon's surface has a reddish hue, causing the fully eclipsed Moon to take on a red color.ĭepending on the composition of the atmosphere, different parts of the light spectrum are filtered out, so the Moon may also look yellow, orange, or brown during a total lunar eclipse. This is the same mechanism that causes colorful sunrises and sunsets. However, some sunlight still reaches the lunar surface indirectly, via the Earth's atmosphere, bathing the Moon in a reddish, yellow, or orange glow.Īs the Sun's rays pass through the atmosphere, some colors in the light spectrum-those towards the violet spectrum-are filtered out by a phenomenon called Rayleigh scattering. ![]() Why Are Blood Moons Red?īlood Moon is not a scientific term, though in recent times it is being widely used to refer to a total lunar eclipse because a fully eclipsed Moon often takes on a reddish color-like in the image below, which was taken during the total lunar eclipse in September 2015.Ī total lunar eclipse happens when the Moon travels through the Earth's umbra and blocks all direct sunlight from illuminating the Moon's surface.
