Soulseekqt not opening12/27/2023 also something else interesting happened, when i went to install soulseek, the "soulseekqt setup: installation options" window comes up, i click "next", then "install" and i get an error message saying "error opening file for writing: c:\program files (x86)\soulseekqt\soulseekqt.exe click abort to stop the installation, retry to try again, or ignore and skip this file". please help!! I am using win 8.1, and the latest soulseek qt. If you're using windows, go to the bottom right beside the clock and click the upward arrow, and you might find it open on there. When i click on the icon it stays highlighted for a moment as if it is going to open, but then nothing happens and it "un" highlights. I had no trouble opening soulseek for the first time just after downloading it but it doesnt open anymore. then something else interesting happened, i came here and my login info didnt work! it didnt recognize any of my emails or my username. If not open yet, select the Search>Manual Searches sub-tab. i also tried turning of my windows firewall, and that didnt help either. Before you install SoulseekQt, and if you are a user of SoulseekNS, it might be helpful to. so i tried a few things: first, i tried uninstalling it and then reinstalling it and that didnt work. Kill it by clicking on it and selecting end process. When i click on the icon to open my soulseek client, nothing happens. Install Soulseek on Windows 10 & 11 Firstly, open your favorite Web browser, but not an Internet Explorer we means hahaha. It will probably be down in the all users section, not your small list at the top.

Travel journal scrapbook journal travel12/27/2023 As they would on a trip, they can use their senses to observe the surroundings, draw pictures of what they see, and glue pieces of nature into their journals (Remember not to take plants from national parks though – that’s illegal!).Įncouraging kids beyond the academic benefits of journaling teaches them to become independent thinkers who are able to ask questions and connect with their peers. It can be as simple as going to the neighborhood park or in their own backyards. Kids who have not traveled beyond their hometowns can use the travel journal or journal scrapbook to document their nature travels. Being able to pair writing with drawings or photos can keep the activity mindful practice for expression and communication without as heavy an emphasis on language. This type of travel journal encourages students to work independently, at their own pace, and improve their learning style and gets them to become invested personally in what they are creating.Īdditionally, it may make the travel journal more appealing to a student who isn’t in love with writing. A travel scrapbook can include anything that the creator wants to include such as doodles, poems, sketches, mementos, and photographs. Why Keep a Travel Scrapbook? Encourage Artistic ExpressionĪ travel journal can become a travel scrapbook. They will learn to incorporate descriptive words to convey to others as well as using pictures, sketches, and other personal information to “show” what they did on their travel journey. Kids can learn to write so that others can “see” what they have seen. Improving written communication is another use of a travel journal. They will learn to build paragraphs and how they are used to support topics that they are writing about. The more kids write, the more they will understand what makes a complete sentence and the mechanics that come along with it. Instead of being constrained to a prompt like, “What did you do on your Summer vacation?” a travel journal is a versatile way to incorporate creativity, as well as improving their writing skills. A travel journal will give them a chance to write about what they think is important to them and share it with others. Journaling is a resourceful way to get kids who may have a difficult time expressing themselves an opportunity to write without boundaries. Why Keep a Travel Journal? Improve Self-expression & Creativity A travel journal, on the other hand, is not forced, and includes casual observations, ideas, memories, creativity, and anything else that comes to the writer’s mind. Diaries are used to record everyday occurrences that happen on a specific day. Note: A travel journal should not be confused with a diary. A student travel journal not only is a great way to practice children’s writing skills but also become a place to gather the memories of a trip, whether short or far. The benefits of creating a travel journal are many.

Fantastical 212/27/2023 ( Update: Version 3 seems to nag version 2 owners way too aggressively about upgrading, though. If you want more, you can pay for more 1-and if you’re a version 2 user who doesn’t like the subscription model, Flexibits isn’t going to force you to upgrade unless you want those new features. If you’re offended by the idea that a calendar app would want you to pay $40/year for its services, that’s fine-every device you use has a built-in calendar app that’s free to use and does the job fine. Flexibits seems to understand that asking for a subscription means delivering new stuff on a regular basis, rather than dropping a standalone update and then going into hibernation while the subscription fees roll in. “Every month we’re making the app better,” Michael Simmons of Flexibits told me during our briefing, explaining that the company’s goal is to regularly roll out new features to the apps and via the cloud service. But access to the new features (across Mac, iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch) will require a $5/month or $40/year subscription. Existing Fantastical 2 users will be able to upgrade and get access to all the version 2 features while using version 3. It’s also connecting with Flexibits’s own new cloud service, which adds a slew of new features-and further possibilities down the line.Īs you might expect in this era of App Store apps, there’s also a new payment model for the app. With this release, Fantastical is now stepping away from its attachment to Apple’s built-in calendar database, adding the ability to connect to all sorts of calendar and task services. I’ve come to appreciate its thoughtful interface and its excellent natural-language parsing for event entry.īut with Fantastical 3, Flexibits has transformed the product-it’s got a refined new look, yes, but what’s going on behind the scenes is the biggest part of the story. I’ve been using Fantastical as my calendar app across all my devices for years now. The left sidebar can come and go with a swipe. Warning: This story has not been updated in several years and may contain out-of-date information. Fantastical 3 steps out of Apple’s shadow

The next big thing cast12/26/2023 Like many other teen actors, Prinze had a difficult time transitioning from roles that featured him as a young heartthrob to more adult-oriented parts. Then, just as suddenly as he rose to fame, he seemingly vanished from the public eye. The star quickly cemented his reputation as a teen icon, picking up 12 projects in five years. craze hit the nation in the late 1990s after his iconic performance in I Know What You Did Last Summer. They live such a private life together in England that no one even knows the names of their three children.Ī Freddie Prinze Jr. Hartnett has been dating actress Tasmin Egerton since 2012, and the couple married in 2021. Beyond his part as Ethan Chandler in Showtime's Penny Dreadful, Hartnett remains committed to working with emerging directors whose style he likes instead of chasing the fame and fortune that leading roles in major films would provide. The former star reportedly enjoys writing and directing short movies and hopes to direct a feature film in the future. So, at the height of his popularity, he turned down leading roles as Superman, Spider-Man, and Batman to move back home to Minnesota.Įventually, he decided to ease his way back into the industry through indie films. Even though he was reaching career goals at a swift pace, he couldn't slow down to enjoy the atmosphere he was creating for himself.Īfter five years of starring in major roles (including Sin City, 40 Days and 40 Nights, and Lucky Number Slevin) without a break, Hartnett realized his career no longer reflected what he loved about the industry. Hartnett quickly rose to fame, an experience he compared to driving a car on a freeway. The teen icon first arrived in the Hollywood eye after his roles in The Faculty and Halloween H20: 20 Years Later in 1998. However, Hartnett wasn't happy chasing after stardom and riches. After Pearl Harbor and Black Hawk Down, it seemed members of the press were correct in their assumptions of the early-2000s heartthrob. The New York Post had even predicted, back in 1998, that the star could possibly reach legendary status in his career. In 2001, young actor Josh Hartnett starred in two blockbuster hits that propelled his career into the fast lane of the Hollywood highway for five years straight. Vote up the stars you thought would be the next big thing - but weren't. However, some stepped into their new roles and identities much more gracefully (and successfully) than others. Almost all the dreamboats here struggled with finding their niche after being characterized as teen film sensations. While this list most likely won't give us the closure we felt we deserved when they disappeared, it does provide some answers concerning what happened to our favorite famous actors who aren't that famous anymore. Instead, these famous actors just never showed up on film again, leaving us with more questions than answers. They never even gave us a reason to cry and eat ice cream with our friends while bemoaning their grand departures. They never gave us an explanation as to why they were ending things. They never allowed us to have the heartfelt breakup moment we so often witnessed on screen. After starring in a few incredibly successful films, they exited the stage, never to be heard from again. To many, it seems as though these heartthrobs just vanished overnight. Whatever happened to Jonathan Taylor Thomas, Michael Schoeffling, Freddie Prinze Jr., Josh Hartnett, and other teenage icons who dominated the film industry in the 1980s and '90s?

Arcteryx atom ar12/26/2023 However, when paired with a hard shell like the Arc’teryx Beta LT, the Atom SL will keep you warm without making you sweat. In the winter, the Atom SL alone won’t provide you with much warmth. If you want one jacket for every activity, a model from the Atom lineup is your best bet. As mentioned before, my favorite part of the Atom SL is its versatility. The weather protection is minimal, so if you are expecting rain, wind, or snow, I would prepare with a heartier shell like the Arc’teryx Beta LT. It is light, breathable, and packs down to the size of a grapefruit (the jacket does not come with a stuff sack, but you can mash it into the hoody and give it a good cinch). If you are planning for a shoulder season and/or extra steep hike, this jacket is ideal. The Atom SL is ideal for warmer weather or high aerobic activities. That means no more awkward strap finagling when trying to grab your pocket snack! Application and Key Benefits An Adaptable, Stand-Alone Jacket The jacket has two hand pockets, strategically placed a little higher to ease access when wearing a backpack. The Atom SL is limited in storage, but for an ultralight layer, it’s worth it. On the right hip, a drawcord allows you to cinch down the jacket for a closer, more secure fit. For hikers, this is helpful when looking for extra sun protection for your neck and easily-exposed ears. The StormHood is large enough to fit over a climbing helmet but contains a rear cinch to tighten around the top and side of your head. The hiking jacket has two cinches to adjust fit and breathability. Every feature has a function, and there are no unnecessary frills. Atom SL Hoody FeaturesĪrc’teryx designed the Atom SL to be extraordinarily versatile without sacrificing weight. You can read more about the Arc’teryx sustainability mission here. Their commitment to sustainability makes the brand a great option for those seeking products made with safer, environmentally responsible materials. The materials used are supported by the Bluesign system, which helps Arctery’x maximize the durability of their gear, and minimize its environmental impact. This is an exception to an industry whose thin, ultralight gear is often prone to tearing. The Atom SL is built with a soft, 20-denier (D) shell fabric, which is ultralight without sacrificing hardiness. The hiking gear from Arc’teryx is as high quality as you can get. It feels like magic, but it probably has something more to do with the company’s “built to last” philosophy. I have taken my Atom SL on ice climbing ascents in the Rocky Mountains and humid hikes in the jungles of Rwanda (as protection against dogged mosquitoes). Part of the Atom jackets’ prowess is their exceptional ability to regulate body temperature in any environment. From my first day wearing the Atom SL, it was clear why the Atom jacket collection is at the front of the pack. I didn’t understand his cult-like obsession until I bought my first Atom jacket. An avid ice climber and mountaineer, his every jacket, pant, and shoe sported their famous urvogel dinosaur logo. I was first introduced to Arc’teryx through my roommate, who worked at a retail location for a few years.

Modifications to curriculum content, homework assignments, or assessments change the nature of instruction and assessments and what students are expected to learn-but they have the advantage of allowing interaction with other students in the classroom and school. Modifications Are Different from Accommodations An accommodation does not change item or test validity. Without accommodations, an assessment may not accurately measure the knowledge and skills of a student with a learning disability (e.g., dyslexia). Assessment (testing) accommodations are changes in assessment materials (e.g., large print) or procedures (e.g., extended time) that allow students to demonstrate their abilities-not their disabilities-during tests and exams. Classroom accommodations make it possible for students to learn and demonstrate their learning through full participation in classroom instruction. Accommodations make it possible for students with dyslexia to demonstrate their learning without being hindered by their disabilities.Īppropriate accommodations need to be an integral part of the normal cycle of teaching and testing- never reserved only for periods of assessment. Accommodations do not change the content of instruction, give students an unfair advantage, or change the skills or knowledge that a test measures. Accommodations are adjustments made to allow a student to demonstrate knowledge, skills, and abilities without lowering learning or performance expectations and without changing what is being measured (e.g., providing text in audio-format when academic knowledge is the target skill being measured). The purpose of accommodations is to ensure equal access to the full school experience for students with dyslexia or other learning disabilities (e.g., providing extended exam time for a student who has slow processing speed affecting academic fluency). Accommodations do not change the content of instruction, give students an unfair advantage, or change the skills or knowledge that a test measures.Accommodations, provided for both testing and instruction, change the way students access information and demonstrate their knowledge, skills, and abilities they do not change academic standards or expectations.

Type to learn 412/25/2023 In TalentLMS’ research on remote work, 66% of respondents identified themselves as visual learners, meaning they gravitate towards visualizations of data more than anything else. When it comes to a remote setting, people tend to prefer learning visually. The pre-test is a bit long for slower typists, but my kids were determined to finish it. They were very excited to 'learn to type' like Mommy This software pre-tests the child in the beginning to see where their typing abilities lie. Auditory learners will remember information best after reciting it back to the presenter, while kinesthetic learners will jump at the chance to participate in a hands-on activity. Type to Learn 4 is great for kids of all ages. Each learning type responds best to a different method of teaching. The cloud-based version of Type to Learn is very similar to Type to Learn 4, with the same great scope and sequence, but we improved many features and added new settings based on teacher feedback. One popular theory, the VARK model, identifies four primary types of learners: visual, auditory, reading/writing, and kinesthetic. Type to Learn 4 is the original, installable version of our Type to Learn program, which we have converted to run 100 in the cloud. Higher difficulty levels are available, allowing. Approaching ships are identified as words, and you must type those words to destroy the ship before it reaches and destroys you. Your mission is to attempt to survive an attack in space. Scientists and psychologists have developed a number of different models to understand the different ways that people learn best. One of our most popular games, Typing Attack, is an educational game where you learn to type words quickly. You may have argued with your classmates about which method was best-but the truth is that, when it comes to learning, one size does not fit all. Maybe you made flashcards, or reviewed recordings of your professors’ lectures, or came up with intricate mnemonic devices to memorize the material at hand. Remember when you were in school and you had to cram hundreds of pages of textbook material into your head before every big test? If you were like most students, you and your friends probably developed all kinds of tactics to make the grade. |
