Only borrowers in Connecticut scored an average APR under 4 percent at 3.97 percent, while borrowers in Georgia (7.65 percent), Mississippi (7.2 percent) and New Mexico (7.06 percent) were paying the highest average APR, according to Edmunds’ data.Īnd what about those online auto-finance calculators? The longest financing terms were found in Alaska at 74.6 months and New Mexico at 72.4 months. ![]() Length of financingĬar shoppers in Connecticut (64.2 months), Massachusetts (64.9 months), New York (65.6 months) and New Jersey (65.9 months) financed their vehicles for the shortest terms on average. The highest amount of negative equity was for trade-ins in Alaska ($6,852). Shoppers in Connecticut ($4,499), Massachusetts ($4,686) and Rhode Island ($4,694) also had trade-ins with the lowest dollar amount of negative equity, with Wisconsin ($4,724) and Pennsylvania ($4,799) also coming in below $5,000. The clearest link between shoppers and behavior is how much time shoppers use auto loan calculators, Edmunds said, with more usage suggesting more responsible behavior overall.Į based the conclusions in its state-by-state ranking of responsible car-shopping behavior on averages for four major factors: Trade-in with negative equity – under water, upside down – the dollar amount of negative equity, financing term and interest rate (APR).Ĭombining scores in all four categories, the Edmunds rankings showed the greatest responsible behavior among shoppers in the Northeast and Great Lakes regions and in Hawaii, and least responsible behavior in the South and Southwest, along with Wyoming and Alaska: Most-responsible shoppersįollowing is a summary of results for each factor Edmunds considered in the rankings: Trade-in with negative equityĬonnecticut (10 percent), Massachusetts and Rhode Island (11 percent), and New Jersey (12 percent) shoppers are most responsible on average based on the low percentage of trade-ins under water, with negative equity ranging up to 33 percent in Arkansas and 32 percent in New Mexico. Shoppers in New Mexico ranked last in responsible behavior, according to Edmunds. ![]() The automotive information website found that Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island “lead the country in responsible car-shopping behavior” looking at 842,000 transactions May through September. Shoppers in the Northeast and Great Lakes regions show the highest levels of responsible car shopping, including using auto loan calculators, while states mainly in the South and Southwest show the least-responsible behavior, based on a study by. 11/8/2023 0 Comments Launch of first nuclear submarineThe concept of underwater combat has roots deep in antiquity. They remain a focus of popular culture and the subject of numerous books and films.Įarly A 16th-century Islamic painting depicting Alexander the Great being lowered in a glass submersible. They are used extensively in search and rescue operations for other submarines, surface vessels, and air craft, and offer a means to descend vast depths beyond the reach of scuba diving for both exploration and recreation. They are heavily employed in the exploration of the sea bed, and the deepest places of the ocean floor. The military use of submarines continues to this day, predominantly by North Korea, China, the United States and Russia.īeyond their use in warfare, submarines continue to have recreational and scientific uses. The latter conflicts also saw an increasing role for the military submarine as a tool of subterfuge, hidden warfare, and nuclear deterrent. The Second World War use of the U-Boat by the Kriegsmarine against the Royal Navy and commercial shipping, and the Cold War's use of submarines by the United States and Russia, helped solidify the submarine's place in popular culture. The introduction of the diesel engine, then the nuclear submarine, saw great expansion in submarine use – and specifically military use – during World War I, World War II, and the Cold War. While early attempts, such as those by Alexander the Great, were rudimentary, the advent of new propulsion systems, fuels, and sonar, propelled an increase in submarine technology. Humanity has employed a variety of methods to travel underwater for exploration, recreation, research and significantly, warfare. The history of the submarine spans the entire history of human endeavour as mankind has since early civilisation sought to explore and travel under the sea. 11/8/2023 0 Comments Mr shifty switch![]() Shifty is supposed to look when it isn’t running on a stuttering Switch, watch us play it below. Shifty is a straightforward, focused caper with little fluff that will last you a few hours as you climb through 18 stages. I hope this post brings some context to what’s going on.” “Some things were said that shouldn't have been, and we didn’t do a good job with communicating here. “I'm just very sorry that the stress on everyone involved created this situation,” Nichiporchik wrote on the Nintendo Switch subreddit. He explained the cause of the problem - that when you take “a brand new platform with brand new development tools and a 3rd party engine,” you’re asking for trouble - and said that both TinyBuild and Team Shifty are now looking out for these slowdown issues to fix them in a patch. As the team continued to talk around the idea of patching the game, Nichiporchik promised otherwise. This led Alex Nichiporchik, CEO of the game’s publisher TinyBuild, to step in after an Ask Me Anything session on Reddit with Team Shifty failed to clear the air. Shifty’s frequent stutters was disappointing, the studio instead pointed them toward the more stable Windows PC version. Here’s the tweet that really stoked the flames for Nintendo Switch fans, There's always the Steam version )- Team Shifty April 11, 2017 “Compromise the experience by cutting stuff out or drop frames, we chose the latter.” “We’re also a very small team,” Team Shifty added. When a user replied that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s framerate has vastly improved since launch, the studio pinned the issue on the Unity Engine’s inconsistent performance on Nintendo Switch thus far. “We’re doing what we can,” Team Shifty wrote on Twitter. ![]() When Nintendo Switch owners reached out to developer Team Shifty about the issue, the studio’s response was flippant. Shifty performance optimization patch has been done since last week. The game’s unique physics are tied directly to its framerate, so any drops can have a serious effect on gameplay.

Colorado City at the Front Range confluence of Fountain and Camp creeks was "formally organized on August 13, 1859" during the Pikes Peak Gold Rush. In 1859, after the first local settlement was established, it became part of the Jefferson Territory on October 24 and of El Paso County on November 28. Part of the territory included in the United States' 1803 Louisiana Purchase, the current city area was designated part of the 1854 Kansas Territory. The Ute, Arapaho and Cheyenne peoples were the first recorded inhabiting the area which would become Colorado Springs. ![]() The city is the largest city north of Mexico above 6000 feet in elevation.įor a chronological guide, see Timeline of Colorado Springs, Colorado. Colorado Springs is near the base of Pikes Peak, which rises 14,115 feet (4,302.31 m) above sea level on the eastern edge of the Southern Rocky Mountains.

You'll remember the material better when your prep is mixed up like this. Your brain will have to do a switch in order to go between those two topics and having to do that makes a stronger neural network for you to remember the material. So you might see a biology card and then you'll see a physics card next. Not just reviewing biology or physics, but reviewing the entire deck of content review at the same time because what that does is it switches up the types of cards that you're seeing. ![]() When you're actually reviewing your MCAT Anki cards, I advise that you review the entire deck. Step 4: Develop plan to review test material So, you know, if you're making new cards and you're doing bio, you can put them under biology or physics. And basically this just keeps it very organized. Now let’s hop on to the Anki on the computer and learn exactly how we can do this.Īnd now these are basically two subjects under content review. So you're able to learn new material while still holding onto the old material that you learned. What this is doing is it prevents you from having to review all your cards every single day but at the same time, making sure that you don't forget material from earlier. If we take the example from earlier with the B cells, say we have an MCAT Anki card called “what is the function of B sells?” The first time you make that card, you'll probably see it everyday and then as you get better at it, you might see it every other day, then maybe every three days, then maybe every five days, and then every week, and then it could go up to a month. It’s basically a learning technique where you learn material in increasingly spaced intervals, which ultimately increases long-term retention. The power of Anki comes from another principle called space repetition. Why can’t I just use normal flashcards or quizlet? Passive recall would be just looking in your notes and seeing it saying B cell in the definition and just looking at the information. And you have to actively recall the definition by just looking at the word B cells. On one side of the card, you'd have B cells and on the back you'd have exactly what they are. Basically, active recall is when you have to actively summon information rather than just passively looking at it.įor example, if you're studying immune cells in the body and say you're studying B cells in particular. ![]() Anki is a free and open-sourced flashcard program that helps you easily remember things via active recall. 11/7/2023 0 Comments Mem reduct github![]() In the event that the user wishes to clean his memory automatically, all he needs to do is to click on the taskbar icon of Mem Reduct and pick one of the available options for automatic Clean Memory actions. The app removes unnecessary entries in RAM and virtual memory, avoiding only currently active apps and their necessary data. A simple “Clean Memory” button on the bottom of the app is all that the user needs to click in order to free some of its precious PC memory. Once activated, the app will immediately showcase the current listing of the available memory separated into three distinct sections - Physical Memory (the RAM sticks that are plugged into the motherboard), Virtual memory (the amount of local storage hard drive memory that is allocated by the OS in the event that the active apps cannot fit in the physical memory), and the “System Working Set” which represents the combination of the previous two listings. The app is fast, reliable, and can be set to automatically run at predefined time intervals. ![]() Mem Reduct requires incredibly little system resources, and therefore it will not impact even the functioning of the PCs with critically low RAM memory. Mem Reduct is distributed as a standalone EXE that can be deployed on the PC with the help of the automated installer that will deploy the app on the local storage and get it ready for running. With built-in tools for monitoring both physical and virtual RAM partitions, and the ability to perform memory cleaning at predefined times, this app can transform sometimes unusable PCs into fully capable machines that can more easily tackle their daily tasks. ![]() Mem Reduct is a lightweight but incredibly useful system utility that can help PC users with a low amount of RAM to free up unused memory and free it up for other regular tasks they wish to perform on their desktop and laptop PC. 11/7/2023 0 Comments Pear blight![]() Move them away from the trees and destroy them – do not add to compost! This will prevent the bacteria from overwintering in the debris and then spreading. Be sure to do a complete cleanup around your trees when fall rolls around. Collect all pruning debris, mummified fruit, and fallen leaves. Fertilizers should only be used to supplement nutrients in soils that are lacking them.Ĭleanup. A soil test will help you determine whether or not your soil even needs a fertilizer application. To avoid this susceptibility to fire blight in your trees, especially if you live where fire blight is a known issue, it is recommended that you use a low-nitrogen fertilizer during the growing season (stopping before July) – and only fertilize when necessary. Any excessive amount of new growth on your tree is easily susceptible to fire blight infection. In high-pressure areas, your best defense is likely going to be a combination of cultural practices, cleanup, and manual/chemical control methods.Ĭultural practices. Managing Fire Blight in Affected Fruit Trees *Learn more about the symptoms and life cycle of fire blight in this Fire Blight Fact Sheet via Cornell University. To avoid turning this into a science lecture*, let's move on to how to control fire blight. When the spring temperatures begin to climb between 60°-80☏, optimal conditions are created for spreading the disease and the bacteria is brought out of dormancy. Bees, insects, birds, splashing rain, and wind easily spread the bacteria and the resulting fire blight disease.įire blight commonly affects apple and pear trees (both fruit-bearing and ornamental types), but can also affect quince trees and other members of the Rosaceae family – even including some common rose varieties and raspberry plants. These areas may appear black, shrunken, and cracked. Blossoms will turn brown, wilt, and die about 1-2 weeks after infection occurs.įire blight may also exhibit an amber-colored ooze (which is heavy with bacteria) from the bark of the tree. What is Fire Blight?įire blight is a contagious, systemic, bacterial disease. Bacteria ( erwinia amylovora) attack the blossoms in early spring and then move up the twigs and branches through the tree's system. The name "fire blight" comes from the scorched appearance of the infected leaves, stems, and bark. Since the weather can stimulate certain bacterial diseases, I thought you backyard fruit gardeners might like some background on, and ideas on how to control, one of the most prevalent bacterial diseases affecting fruit trees (like apples, pears, and quince) – fire blight. Of course, these are ideal conditions for fungal and bacterial diseases to infect fruit trees, as well as other trees and shrubs. Hello, my fellow fruit-lovers! It has been very cool and wet here this past spring and summer. ![]() What is fire blight? Fire blight is a contagious, systemic, bacterial disease and is prevalent on apple and pear trees during cool, wet springs. 11/7/2023 0 Comments Samsung kiesfor windows 10![]() They have added Windows 10, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 compatible OS. ![]() ![]() You can also see the system requirement on the developer site.

11/7/2023 0 Comments Jupiter hell distance explanation![]() You remember, so there is a clear - it’s a clear symmetry between the two cantos. ![]() That’s the way it says, so the canto literally looks backwards and a parallel with - you may have a number of parallels with Inferno XIX where Dante meets, you remember, the popes who are turned upside down and the flames - the kind of - the parody of the Pentecostal fires out on the plants of their feet, but this is more clearly a reference to Canto XXVII of Inferno, where this is the very beginning, this is - there is a hymn Canto XXVII, “Glory be to the Father, the Son, etc.,” and then lines 40 and following we have this great attack, “It was not our meaning,” line 45, “that on the right hand of our successors should sit one part of Christ’s people and the other on the left nor that the keys which were committed to me should become the device on a standard for warfare on the baptized nor that I should be the figure on a seal for sold and lying favours, for which I often redden and flash with fire.” This is the fire of prophecy without a doubt, but it’s also, retrospectively, a reference to the attack against Boniface, who in Canto XXVII of Inferno, is shown as he is in colluding with the Guido da Montefeltro. Peter actually who has been examining him but now after the examination of the three theological virtues he goes on in a prophetic denunciation, he denounces the collusion between his place, he says “my place,” it’s the papacy, the place instituted by - because of him he’s the Peter, he’s the stone, and his successors. Here Dante - you remember what he does, he meets St. There is clearly a parallel between the two cantos. Canto XXVII Dante continues with - in the afterglow of the fixed stars, and the canto just to give you an idea about what formally is happening here, the first part of the canto really looks back formerly at Canto XXVII of Inferno. Where are we first of all in space? We are somewhere in space, Dante has gone past now, the heaven of the fixed stars, with the examination of the three words, the three terms, the foundations of things that we experience as trust, or we experience as existential hope, or a love that if you combine it is always - implies always - not in Canto XXVI but in possibilities of betrayal, uncertainty, so it combines both faith and hope in a very problematical way. There is a very tedious line separating the two of them. I would like to argue that in effect they are not quite the same thing but not really all that distinct. Now we’re going to show all of this as we go over the three cantos. ![]() It’s done in such a way that they are two different things, it would seem, creation and a physical description of the cosmos which we call cosmology and they are because Dante’s dealing with two forms of the universe, a spiritual one and a physical one. A theory of Beatrice that’s explaining the shape of the cosmos, it’s very difficult in these three cantos. Professor Giuseppe Mazzotta: We’re going to look at XXVII, XXVIII and XXIX today of Paradise, three cantos that, really, I think, Dante constructs together and where Dante puts forth this theory of creation and cosmology which are not quite the same thing.
