8/7/2023 0 Comments Magnetic rag![]() As well, Joplin employed in "Magnetic Rag" the classic "common time" 4/4 time signature instead of the more usual 2/4 time of rag tunes. "Magnetic Rag" begins with the instruction " Allegretto ma non troppo" (moderately fast, but not too much) and continues in the D strain with " Tempo l'istesso" (tempo remains the same), a warning against slowing down for the minor-mode section. Joplin's usage of Italian tempo indications in "Magnetic Rag" has been interpreted as his intention to give the piece a serious aspect in a similar manner to Treemonisha and "Scott Joplin's New Rag". The form is cyclic: that is, the opening melody is revisited at the end of the piece. It has been suggested that Joplin was trying to merge ragtime elements with the classical sonata form. Due to its novelty at the time, the form has been described as "progressive". While many of Joplin's piano rags fit the classic rag scheme, "Magnetic Rag" is unique in its form of AABBCCDDAA. Possibly as a result of Joplin's mood at this time, the piece expresses a melancholy almost entirely unheard in his earlier works. He was suffering from the latter stages of syphilis, the disease from which he died only three years later. "Magnetic Rag" was written by an ailing Joplin near the end of his career, when interest in ragtime was waning. It is also unique in form and in some of the musical techniques employed in the composition. ![]() It is significant for being the last rag which Joplin published in his lifetime, three years before his death in 1917. " Magnetic Rag" is a 1914 ragtime piano composition by American composer Scott Joplin. ![]() 8/7/2023 0 Comments Atomic kitten england song![]() ![]() As well as recording the new vocals, Godfrey and Padley also took over the job of producing "Whole Again", although they were careful to preserve the features of McCluskey and Kershaw's original version, including Katona's spoken middle-8 section. A hasty affair due to the band's hectic schedule at that time, much of the vocals were recorded within 30 minutes, with McClarnon and Hamilton each singing the whole song twice only. ![]() Recording of the new verses took place at Padley's West Hampstead music studio. We very carefully worked out what the vocal range of the Kittens was, because the last thing we wanted was to write a melody that was fantastic but that they wouldn't be able to sing." Padley later described the process as "quite difficult, because the chorus of the song was so hooky that the verse had to lead up to it but not overshadow it, which is why it ended up sounding as low as it does. With the chorus being already there, Godfrey and Padley decided on writing a melody for the verses and changed most of the chords in "Whole Again", but they were not able to change its key. While this version was included on the Japanese version of Atomic Kitten's debut album Right Now (2000), Innocent Records A&R manager Hugh Goldsmith felt that it was still a half‑finished song and asked songwriters and producers Jem Godfrey and Bill Padley to re-write it for the UK version of the album. A mid-tempo ballad that combines a strolling beat and one-note string crescendos, it initially featured all lines spoken by Kerry Katona with only the chorus sung by Liz McClarnon and Natasha Hamilton. "Whole Again" was written and produced by Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark members and Atomic Kitten founders Andy McCluskey and Stuart Kershaw. As a result, the music video was reshot and Frost's vocals appeared on the reissue of Right Now. Following the departure of Katona, she was replaced a few days later by Jenny Frost of fellow English girl group Precious, just after the single topped the UK Singles Chart. Multiple artists, including OMD, have covered the song. The four writers were nominated for the Ivor Novello Award for excellence in songwriting, and Billboard ranked the track number 96 on their list of the "100 Greatest Girl Group Songs of All Time". It was a massive success, reaching number one in several countries and selling over a million copies in the UK alone. ![]() "Whole Again" was the first single released from the album in Europe and South Africa. It is the group's biggest selling single to date and was the final single to feature founding member Kerry Katona, who left the group midway through promoting the single. Godfrey and Padley are credited as additional producers. It was co-written by Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark members and Atomic Kitten founders Andy McCluskey and Stuart Kershaw, along with Jem Godfrey and Bill Padley, with production helmed by McCluskey and Kershaw under their production moniker Engine. " Whole Again" is a song by British girl group Atomic Kitten for their debut studio album, Right Now (2000). ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Examples of such versions of the Bible include the King James Version (KJV), American Standard Version (ASV), and many others.ĭynamic Equivalent: uses thought-for-thought translation philosophy and its goal is to maintain historical distance while using modern English to help us understand the texts better. While some argue that it retains authenticity, the use of archaic words can make it difficult for us to understand. Literal Translation: uses the formal equivalence translation philosophy which aims to preserve the words, phrases, and tenses used in the original manuscript. The different versions of the Bible depend on the type of translation used – Literal Translation, Dynamic Equivalent, or Free Translation. What Are The Different Versions of the Bible? And when we consider the authors’ intentions, we also understand why authors translate versions like Bible Basic English (BBE) and Darby English Bible (DEB) for specific groups of people. That is why the King James Version (KJV) differs greatly from New International Version (NIV). When authors use a different translation method, you get very different Bible versions. Other reason includes the type of translation method and philosophy used and the intention behind each Bible version. As time passes, people began translating the Bible into various languages and eventually, published more versions of the Bible. Currently, there are over 5,800 Greek manuscripts of the New Testament and over 10,000 Hebrew Old Testament alone. One of the main reasons is because of the sheer number of manuscripts that makes up this holy book. You may wonder why there are so many bible versions. Why Are There So Many Bible Versions in the World? Currently, the World English Bible organization is editing the WEB to improve accuracy and readability. The intention behind the WEB is to have a Bible that does not use archaic English and does not use simplified English like the BBE. World English Bible (WEB)Īnother revised version of the ASV, the WEB was first published in 2000. Unlike many of the other translations, this version is a Public Domain (no copyright) 21st century English translation of the whole Bible. Webster also introduced euphemisms to remove words that may be deemed derogatory or offensive such as replacing “whore” with “lewd women”. This version focuses mainly on replacing archaic such as “wherefore” with “why”, as well as making simple grammatical revisions. The Webster Bible was translated by Noah Webster in 1833, is a revised Bible version of the KJV, although the changes are rather minor and almost indistinguishable. The KJV was first commissioned by England’s King James I and was published in 1601 when the English-speaking Protestants accepted the KJV as their standard version of the English-translated Bible Because it uses seventeenth-century English where its majestic style and prose rhythm, this bible version also has a marked influence on English Literature. The KJV, also known as the King James Bible (KJB) is currently the world’s most well-known Bible translation and it’s also the Bible version that most Americans use. He also highlights that this Bible version is meant for individual study and reading, and not for congregational use. Darby’s intention for this Bible version was to provide a modern translation of the Bible for those who had no access or prior training or knowledge to understand the ancient languages used in the Bible. Darby English Bible (DEB)įirst published in 1980, the Darby English Bible was translated by John Nelson Darby, an Anglo-Irish Bible teacher. Professor S.H Hook states that this Bible version is to allow those with limited education or those whose English is not their first language a chance to learn the Bible. The BBE is translated by Professor Samuel Henry Hook, who translated using Basic English, a simplified subset of regular English. “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son”. It also adopts capitalizing pronouns when referring to divinity e.g. Like the KJV, many consider the ASV as a literal translation of the original Scripture, though it uses more modern English terms for words that are no longer in use. ![]() It was revised in 1885 before the American Revision Committee re-edited and published it in 1901.

There has never been an aftermarket fog light designed from the ground up for performance - until now. The focus has been on LED appearance, not increased output. Every aftermarket design available provides similar lackluster performance, but with an LED. South Georgia & South Sandwich Islands (USD $)įactory fog lights are built to meet minimum output requirements.Fogs by design are supposed to be low intensity, widely dispersed beams. In these conditions you actually don't want bright light, as too much light will cause glare for other drivers and cause light to reflect and refract back into the vehicle operator's own eyes hurting their ability to see. Technically fogs are intended to be turned off when you're not in poor weather conditions. Their sole purposes are to light up on the lane markers on either side of the car so you can stay in your lane and to help illuminate obstacles in the careful, slow speeds you'll be driving at in dense fog or rain. People think that fog lights are auxiliary lights meant to supplement low beams. Your eyes adapt to increases in foreground light by constricting your pupils, which hurts your ability to take in light from everywhere else. When you only boost foreground light, as in the case of LEDs in stock fogs, you're taking away from your ability to see where it matter most at night: down the road. Dialing up foreground light is not a good thing and even worse when it's not also accompanied by large increase in light being sent further down range. What matters is an increase is usable light. People often get confused into believing that more light = better visibility, but that's wildly wrong and can actually be the other way around. I'm having a hard time figuring out how to address the other part of that because I don't really understand where you were going with it. This is why no reputable shop who does custom headlight work will ever recommend them. On the contrary, I've said that LED bulbs in halogen optics produce less usable light. I've never said that factory LED headlights produce less usable light than halogen headlights. I'm a bit lost on where you got any of that out of anything I've ever posted. This works in most cars still, you turn the headlights off and leave fog lights on, but most people don't do this and turn both on or never turn off fog lights because they like the look it gives.Īnother thing to note is that if you are using fog lights to see they are intended to light up a small portion in front of your car and they assumption is that you are moving slowly. When fog lights became a thing they were intended to be turned on and your primary lights turned off, this reduced the total light and left you with light you gained more from. As far as reflective light your eyes can handle yellow better than white so it doesn't cause as much strain. There was no denying yellow gave better visibility to objects in heavy fog. ![]() ![]() I bought my car with yellow fog lights and swapped to white light after a few months. True, but with them being lower and having the right bulbs (not just yellow tinted) it will still allow you to see better. For this reason fogs lights are actually designed to spread the beam out as much as possible and they typically use lower wattage bulbs so that the intensity is reduced. If you're using stock halogens that light is yellow, but it will still create a wall of light that's hard even for you to see through. Imagine driving in dense fog with your high beams on. In poor weather you don't want too much light as even though it's yellow, the light still reflects and refracts off water vapor and gets sent into other drivers and your own eyes. Even in clear weather these are going to glare quite a bit. The problem here is the amount of light and the fact that the optics don't focus that light properly they were intended for heated filaments, not diodes that emit directional light. Yellow light will offer more contrast, especially in fog.īut I don't see how you're calling out anything I've said as false. Due to the longer wavelength of yellow light it's less prone to scatter than white/blue light. ![]() 8/7/2023 0 Comments Geritol liquid![]() ![]() Kaylen Silverberg, a Texas-based fertility specialist, says one key difference between Geritol and prenatal vitamins is the amount of folic acid: There’s more folic acid in a prenatal vitamin.įolic acid is a B vitamin that plays a key role in a baby’s early spinal development. ![]() What’s the difference between Geritol and a prenatal vitamin?ĭr. However, since the vitamin and mineral formulas sold under the Geritol label aren’t designed for fertility, they don’t have the same makeup as a prenatal vitamin. Iron is also found in foods such as red meat, beans, green leafy vegetables, and more, so if someone has a balanced diet, they may already take in adequate iron. Women also need iron during pregnancy when their blood volume increases up to 40 percent. A supplement can help replace what’s lost. When a woman has her period, she loses iron. The mineral is also needed for growth, development, and the functioning of certain cells. Iron is needed for the body to produce hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that moves oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body. One possibility for people thinking the multivitamin will help them get pregnant is because of its iron content. We don’t make any fertility claims, and we’re not quite sure how the rumor got started.” In fact, the brand itself says that any claims that Geritol will boost fertility are false: “There is, unfortunately, no evidence that specifically taking Geritol can increase your fertility or your chances of getting pregnant. But there isn’t any medical evidence to suggest that Geritol, in particular, will help you conceive. Geritol Complete® isn't just for seniors-this formulation can replace many women's vitamins because it offers antioxidants, calcium, iron and folic acid.Having the right amount of vitamins and minerals is an important part of getting pregnant, as it helps to increase your overall health status. Today, Geritol still offers its famous Tonic, plus a multi-vitamin, that contains all of the vitamins and minerals essential in human nutrition.Three out of four people surveyed in 1994 said Bob Barker is the TV game show host most likely to take Geritol.Geritol, at less than one calorie per tablet, contains no sodium, sugar, lactose, artificial sweeteners, or preservatives. ![]()
![]() ![]() Google Chrome, in fact, pulled the plug on Windows XP back in 2015. Specific components in the latest SSL certs will simply stop working. Older operating systems fall out of date with newer technologies such as TLS 1.3 and the latest cipher suites as browsers stop supporting them. Click on the link to download The Guide to Managing 60+ WordPress Sites! Use a New Operating System We’ve taken our knowledge of effective website management at scale, and turned it into an ebook and video course. If you are on a Mac, see these instructions on how to delete an SSL certificate. Click “Clear SSL state”, and then click OK.The Internet Properties dialog box appears. Under Network, click Change proxy settings.Click the Google Chrome – Settings icon (Settings) icon, and then click Settings.To clear the SSL state in Chrome on Windows, follow these steps: Just like clearing your browser’s cache this can sometimes help if things get out of sync. Cipher suite Clear the SSL State In ChromeĪnother thing to try is clearing the SSL state in Chrome. You can view the current cipher suite in the SSL Labs tool (as seen below). So you should make sure the server configuration is enabled with a different cipher suite. Security researchers, Google, and Microsoft recommend that RC4 be disabled. Why? Because everything usually takes longer to upgrade and update in bigger and more complex configurations. This is not very common, but it could happen in say larger enterprise deployments that require RC4. TLS 1.3 server support Check RC4 Cipher SuiteĪnother reason according to Google’s documentation for ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH is that the RC4 cipher suite was removed in Chrome version 48. If it is old, reach out to your host and ask them to update their TLS version. Under configuration, it will show you the current version of TLS running on the server with that certificate. This is something the SSL Labs tool can also help with. (Suggested reading: if you’re using legacy TLS versions, you might want to fix ERR_SSL_OBSOLETE_VERSION Notifications in Chrome). Cloudflare also enables TLS 1.3 by default. Kinsta supports TLS 1.3 on all of our servers and our Kinsta CDN. If you are a Kinsta customer you never have to worry about this as we always upgrade our servers to the latest and greatest supported versions. Ideally, it should be running at least TLS 1.2 (better yet, TLS 1.3). That is where a tool like SSL Labs can come in handy.Īnother possible reason is that the TLS version running on the web server is old. However, in our case, the ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH error actually prevented us from being able to check it in Chrome DevTools. Remember though, there are wildcard certificates and other variations, but for a typical site, it should match exactly. If this doesn’t match the current site you’re on, this is a problem. Right-click anywhere on the website and click on “Inspect.” Then click on the security tab and click on “View certificate.” The issued domain will show in the certificate information. The domain name alias is for a website whose name is different, but the alias was not included in the certificate.Īnother easy way to check the current domain name issue on the certificate is to open up Chrome DevTools on the site.The site uses a content delivery network (CDN) that doesn’t support SSL.The site no longer exists, yet the domain still points to the old IP address, where some other site is now hosted.The site does not use SSL, but shares an IP address with some other site that does.As SSL Labs states, a mismatch can be a number of things such as: As you can see from the SSL Labs test below, this is pretty quick and easy to diagnose. In this particular instance, the customer migrating to Kinsta had a certificate name mismatch which was throwing up the ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH error.

Regarding Tad, the President’s secretary, John Hay, wrote, “He had a very bad opinion of books and no opinion of discipline.” The attitude of the parents was basically “let the children have a good time.” Lincoln hired tutors for the boys, but only Willie took education seriously. He received a pretend military commission from Secretary of War Edwin Stanton. Because of the times, some of Tad’s games were war-related. Tad seemed to enjoy the idea of throwing the White House and its staff into a dither. Abraham generally laughed at his sons’ tricks, and any kind of discipline was generally lacking. In the White House, Tad sprayed dignitaries with the fire hose, broke mirrors, locked doors, interrupted Cabinet meetings, constructed wagons and sleds out of chairs, set up a food shop in the lobby, rang the call bells, and drilled the servants (as if they were soldiers). Although Tad was more rambunctious than his brother, Willie, both boys enjoyed playing pranks around the Executive Mansion. Tad was eight years old when the Lincoln family moved into the White House in 1861. Tad’s behavior and manners were often unpredictable and sometimes difficult to deal with. He was imaginative, sensitive, exasperating, loving, and highly emotional. Tad was quick in his movements and talked rapidly. Growing up, Tad had an appealing boyish face with dark hair like his dad’s. His diet was limited to foods that were easy to bite or chew or had been given much preparation in advance. Many current historians suspect that Tad was born with a cleft palate which, without modern corrective surgery, resulted in teeth that did not grow in straight, and he a spoke with a lisp. Abraham, viewing the contrast between the large head and tiny baby figure, thought he resembled a tadpole, which was the origin of a nickname that stuck for the rest of Tad’s life. Tad was named after Thomas Lincoln, Abraham’s father who had died in 1851. Thomas “Tad” Lincoln (Ap– July 15, 1871) was the fourth and youngest son of President Abraham Lincoln and Mary Todd Lincoln. ![]() |
