Velez said she wants everyone to know that people with disabilities, like her, are people too and that they also have feelings. "My son, who is 21 years old, is on the autism spectrum," said Miller. His passion for helping them achieve their goals comes from a personal place. He said roughly 75 percent have invisible disabilities. Miller said there are around 1.8 million people in Ohio living with a disability. After working with Opportunities for Ohioans with Disabilities to perfect her interviewing skills, Velez landed her dream job. "Our agency, Opportunities for Ohioans with Disabilities, is about removing whatever barriers those disabilities present to them to gain employment and how do we help them navigate around that so that they can be given the same opportunity," said Miller. Opportunities for Ohioans with Disabilities connects people with disabilities to jobs through vocational rehabilitation. "It also is an opportunity to see just some of the unbelievable talents that these individuals have and going to work every single day and sometimes we want to make sure that we put a spotlight on this," said Miller. Miller said it's important to take a step back and think about the people who get up and go to work and school every day with a disability that cannot be seen just by looking at them. Kevin Miller is the director of opportunities at Opportunities for Ohioans with Disabilities. She doesn't need a cane or a wheelchair, but her autism affects her daily life. She is one of the thousands of Americans living with what's known as an invisible disability. "I have autism when I was three years old," she said. She was a toddler when her family learned why. Viviana Velez struggled with taking tests and social interactions. Invisible disabilities can be autism or mental health conditions. Roughly 75 percent of people in Ohio with disabilities have invisible disabilities.Around 1.8 million people in Ohio live with disabilities. The good configuration to exploit the Dual Channel to get the best performance is “by DIMM” meaning to have same RAM sizes in same DIMM number.

To make sure the results accurately reflect the average performance of each Mac, the chart only includes Macs with at least five unique results in the Geekbench Browser. There are many alternatives to Geekbench for Mac if you are looking for a. The data on this chart is calculated from Geekbench 6 results users have uploaded to the Geekbench Browser. Geekbench 4 shows and memory bandwitdh at 8.76 GB/sec for Single-Core and 8.61 GB/sec for Multi-Core Mac Benchmarks Welcome to the Geekbench Mac Benchmark Chart. We won’t be surprised if the 24-inch iMac posts Geekbench 5 scores similar to what has been posted by the M1 Mac mini, but we’ll update this post once we get our hands on one. With the following configuration from System Information / Memory (by BANK): *** CPU benchmarks can help you gather information on the main things in your system, including the processor, memory, and more.Tested on iMac (27-inch Mid 2011) Intel Core i7 - 3.4 Ghz with High Sierra: The new Rosetta 2 Geekbench results uploaded show that the M1 chip running on a MacBook Air with 8GB of RAM has single-core and multi-core scores of 1,313 and 5,888 respectively. With the new Game Porting Toolkit emulator, it could even run AAA games at playable framerates, unlike the M2 Max, which performed on par with an AMD iGPU.After reading contradictory answers, I decided to make some tests to determine what the correct way to add (2 x 8 GB) RAM to existing (2 x 4 GB) RAM. It'll be interesting to see how the M2 Ultra's massive 76-core GPU holds up in benchmarks. Mac processor comparison: M1 & M2 vs Intel. Furthermore, the Mac Pro in question is probably pre-production hardware and might not perform to spec. Then again, that figure will likely improve once a stable version of macOS Sonoma is released. In Geekbench 5.4 the 14-inch MacBook Pro 2021 with an M1 Pro earned a whopping 12,477, while the M1 Max. While the Apple M2 Ultra packs four more CPU cores compared to its predecessor (24 vs 20), it doesn't translate to much of a performance uplift. Memory bandwidth: 100 GB/s: 68 GB/s: Apple M2 chip: Performance test results compared. Both M1 Ultra benchmark figures have been taken from Geekbench's database. That is about 10% faster than that of the M1 Ultra in single-core (1,750 average) and about the same in multi-core (25,000 average). As far as the actual Apple M2 Ultra Geekbench score is concerned, the 24-core behemoth scores 1,956 and 27,945 points in the single and multi-threaded tests. This particular Mac Pro variant running the M2 Ultra is tricked-out with 192 GB of RAM running a beta version of macOS 14 Sonoma. While the listing seems legitimate, it is easy to duplicate Geekbench entries. It comes from an unknown source, HA-MAC-News, (via on Twitter) and should be treated with scepticism. Version 6.0.3 Measure processor and memory performance and more. Even though the Apple M2 Ultra-powered Mac Pro and Mac Studio aren't scheduled to ship until June 13, someone has already managed to get their hands on the Mac Pro and put it through Geekbench 5.4.4. On Geekbench 5, which measures CPU performance, the MacBook Pro 14-inch M2 Pro version notched a single-core score of 1,941 and the M2 Max version hit a similar 1,926. Grandma is pissed that Butters narked on her, and struts up to the door, locking him in. Then Grandma comes looking for Butters at school, but when he runs to the bathroom to try to avoid her, he finds her waiting there for him. Bailey bullies Mackay into hosting his anti bullying campaign, and while this scene wasn't funny in the commercial, watching Mackay sob his way through the assembly announcement was hilarious. Mackay then meets Bucky Bailey, who is trying to solve the problem of bullying, but his methods are more than a little ironic. Then she goes right back to enjoying her tea. Scotch leaving the room, she strikes Butters in the face and continues to demean him, calling him a "little faggot." Seeing her say, "Do something about it bitch. That is, until it's just her and Butters left in the room. We then meet Butters' grandmother, with her snow white hair, and moose print sweater, she is the picture of innocence and all things good about Grandmothers. The boys tell Butters to try talking to his family about the problem, like his Grandma who happened to be visiting at the time. Stan again acts as the moral compass of the show, as he stands up for Butters, and all kids who get bullied at South Park Elementary (the red head who always stood up for him was a nice touch). Also, the best use of the names like Anonymous Andy or Negative Nancy (whatever those are called) ever was used in this episode, when in response to Craig suggesting Butters get a bigger bully to beat up the person bullying him, Butters responds, "Nah, I don't want to be a cliche conflict resolution Kevin." Advanced MIDI editing is possible through Logic Pro's MIDI Transform Window, where velocity, pitch, pitch-bends, note length, humanize, and precise note positioning can be edited. It features real-time scoring in musical notation, supporting guitar tablature, chord abbreviations and drum notation. Logic Pro can work with MIDI keyboards and control surfaces for input and processing, and for MIDI output. Logic Express only handled up to 255 audio tracks, depending on system performance ( CPU and hard disk throughput and seek time), while, as of version 10.4.5, Logic Pro can handle up to 1000. Logic Express was limited to two-channel stereo mixdown, while Logic Pro can handle multichannel surround sound. Logic Pro and Express once shared many functions and the same interface. It also supports Apple Loops – royalty-free, professionally recorded instrument loops. Logic Pro provides software instruments, audio effects and recording facilities for music synthesis. In May 2023, Logic Pro for iPad was introduced and is available since May 23. On December 8, 2011, the boxed version of Logic Pro was discontinued, along with Logic Express, and as with all other Apple software for Macs, Logic Pro is now only available through the Mac App Store, or with a discounted Pro Apps for Education Bundle for students through the Apple Store online. Apple's GarageBand comes free with all new Macintosh computers and iOS devices and is another application built on Logic's audio engine. Ī consumer-level version based on the same interface and audio engine but with reduced features, called Logic Express, was also available at a reduced cost. It is the second most popular DAW – after Ableton Live – according to a survey conducted in 2015. Apple acquired Emagic in 2002 and renamed Logic to Logic Pro. It was originally created in the early 1990s as Notator Logic, or Logic, by German software developer C-Lab which later went by Emagic. Logic Pro is a proprietary digital audio workstation (DAW) and MIDI sequencer software application for the macOS platform developed by Apple Inc. MIDI sequencer and digital audio workstation X86-64 (as of Logic Pro 9.1) ARM64 (as of Logic Pro 10.6) This absolutely dwarfs both the heat produced through radioactive decay and insolation.Jupiter’s moon Europa is believed to have a subsurface ocean deep beneath its frozen crust. Run the model, and you get about 0.6-1.6E14 W heat generated by this process, which is consistent with the observed heat loss from Io. The moon's tidal bulge stretches by a hundred meters between the apogee and perigee, despite the low eccentricity. If you do the math, the tidal forces on Io are twenty thousand times the tidal forces the Moon causes on the Earth (and the Moon is pretty massive as moons go). It's easy to underestimate just how massive Jupiter is. But consider that Io is mere 400kkm away from Jupiter, and Jupiter is rather. Yes, the eccentricity of Io isn't particularly high. If the other moons didn't exist, Io would be on a circular orbit much further away from Jupiter, and wouldn't be getting any appreciable tidal heating. There's an orbital resonance (with the other Galilean moons) that prevents Io's orbit from circularizing, and also prevents Io from migrating away from Jupiter. That sentence on wikipedia continues "from friction generated within Io's interior as it is pulled between Jupiter and the other Galilean moons". "How tidal heating in Io drives the Galilean orbital resonance locks." Nature 279.5716 (1979): 767-770. "Strong tidal dissipation in Io and Jupiter from astrometric observations," Nature 459.7249 (2009): 957-959. Io's orbit circularizes and Io's interior cools. At some point, the tidal stresses that lead to circularization dominate over the effects of Europa and Ganymede. Tidal stresses now become significant and Io's interior warms up. The resonance effects now begin to dominate, making Io's orbit become more eccentric. This reduces the impact of Jupiter's circularization effects on Io's orbit. Suppose Io's interior is cool and its eccentricity is very low. This has been hypothesized to lead to an interesting hysteresis loop (e.g., Yoder). These interactions tend to increase Io's eccentricity. However, Io is also in a 1:2:4 orbital resonance with Europa and Ganymede. Those tidal stresses normally would act to circularize Io's orbit about Jupiter, thereby reducing the tidal stresses. The fact of $e^2$ means that the tidal energy dissipation strongly depends on eccentricity. Io is a large moon (larger than our Moon) and it orbits fairly close to Jupiter.įinally, even though Io's eccentricity is small, it is not zero. The power of five on the mean motion and moon radius means that a large moon that orbits close to its parent planet will be subject to vastly more tidal stress than a small moon that orbits far from the parent planet. Io's volcanism is a sign of a moon with at least a partially molten interior. Compared to a moon with a solid interior, a moon with a partially molten interior will have a slightly higher value of $k_2$ and a significantly lower value of $Q$. The ratio $k_2/Q$ strongly depends on the makeup of the moon's interior. $e$ is the eccentricity of the moon's orbit.$G$ is the universal gravitational constant, and.$Q$ is the moon's tidal quality factor,.$k_2$ is the moon's second order tidal Love number,.$\dot E$ is the rate at which tidal energy dissipates,.claim that the global energy dissipation in a tidally-stressed moon is given by That Io is in an eccentric orbit rather than a circular orbit means that tidal stresses can and do build up. It is tidally locked in a mean motion sense of "tidally locked". How can Io be tidally heated while it is in tidal lock? It leaves you on your own to piece the map together, which is a welcome challenge. The Guidebook offers a buffet of places you might want to visit, interesting facts, and memorable moments. Ariel Parella-Aureli, LoganSquarist In their varied voices, however, the Guidebooks authors go deeper than reiterating the neighborhood notion by hitting at the power of place and describing how a neighborhood can shape us, often from a young age. The stories reflect the citys change by diving into the identity of each neighborhood from a personal perspective and with a deep love of how place influences a person. Belt Publishings new book The Chicago Neighborhood Guidebook, edited by journalist Martha Bayne, features short essays, poems, articles and photo essays that capture the citys change and personal stories of just about every Chicago neighborhood. Politically, we have a more progressive body that is hopefully moving in a more desired direction deindustrialization and gentrification are jolting forces hitting both North, West and South Side communities displacement and business turnover is common. Rick Kogan, After Hours With Rick Kogan Chicago is in the throes of change on every corner. An essential and tremendously enjoyable book. Alex Bean, Chicago Detours You would be a fool not to have this on your bookshelf it will introduce you to Chicago today. The Chicago Neighborhood Guidebook is a symphony of the city - unharmonious, often tragic, sometimes ridiculous, yet always home. to vivid life the diverse people and wildly divergent experiences that populate Chicago. Review Quotes A stirring, entertaining and informative collection of works. In this idiosyncratic guidebook, Chicagoans will recognize both their streets and their stories, and readers from outside the city will get an intimate portrait of one of Americas most iconic cities. Its a book about the day-to-day lives of people in the city and above all else, about the changes those people have witnessed, suffered, and enacted. This lyrical and subjective guide to Chicago features work by Megan Stielstra, Audrey Petty, Alex Hernandez, Sebastin Hidalgo, Dmitry Samarov, Ed Marszewski, Lily Be, Jonathan Foiles, and many more. Here, youll find compelling stories from all over the city: - What one pizzeria meant to a boy growing up in Ashburn - The South Shores beauty and pain - The best borscht in Ukranian Village - The alleys of the Gold Coast - Rogers Parks ever-shifting identity. Edited by Martha Bayne, and with help from the Read/Write Library, the book builds on 2017s critically acclaimed Rust Belt Chicago: An Anthology. But what does that mean for the people who actually call Chicago home? In an eclectic collection of essays, poems, photos, and visual art, T he Chicago Neighborhood Guidebook aims to explore the citys overlooked corners. Unofficially, though, that numbers closer to 200. Required reading- The Chicago Tribune Officially, Chicago has 77 neighborhoods. Book Synopsis Part of Belts Neighborhood Guidebook Series, The Chicago Neighborhood Guidebook is an intimate exploration of the Windy Citys history and identity.

This will certainly be a Christmas to remember for the NBA, but not in the way it wanted. Yet, he’s just one of countless players missing time as the league struggles to contain the explosion of positive Covid-19 cases within its ranks.

I also found it strange that there was no instruction to leave the swabs to dry before putting them in the paper return envelope. The swabs were easy to take, though four were provided for each participant, which I thought was a little excessive. The kit arrived the next day, in an envelope that looked like any normal letter – I appreciated the discrete packaging. I was impressed to see that they wouldn’t use my testing information for anything other than to provide the service I’d ordered and to respond to any queries relating to it.įinally, I was able to input my payment information and paid with my Visa credit card, but also had the option to use Mastercard, Discover or American Express. There were also terms and conditions and a privacy policy that covered all DDC’s services, which also seemed pretty straightforward. These were specific to the test and didn’t include anything that struck me as unusual. This reassured me that the results would remain confidential unless I chose to share them with anyone.īefore submitting the order I had to agree to the terms and conditions. I entered the email address I wanted the results sent to and chose a password and security question. I noticed that I could also sign up for free status updates via text, another helpful feature. However, I again appreciated being given the choice. This seemed like an expensive option, as I guessed I could just print them from the online format if I wanted a paper copy, so chose that option. Additionally, I could pay to receive them via standard postage ($9.99) or next day special delivery ($29.99). On the next page, it appeared that I could select how I wanted to receive my results, with the free online option already automatically selected. This wasn’t necessary in my case, but I appreciated the various ways in which I could customize the process, depending on my situation. I could also pay extra to receive my kit the next business day or expediate the results from two days to one day. It would cost $69.99 to add extra children or alleged fathers, but including the mother was free. I was also given the option to add additional participants. I moved on to the checkout page, where I entered my name and shipping address. I wanted to make my order quickly and don’t think I’ve ever purchased anything over the phone, so decided to get my test online, despite the promise of a discount. I noticed that a discount was offered for those that called rather than ordered online, which I thought was a bit strange. When I clicked to order the test, I was taken to an intermediary page before proceeding to the checkout, which prompted me to choose between the home (‘Peace of Mind’) DNA kit and the legal version. It was made clear that the test was intended to provide peace of mind only and could not be used for legal purposes. I was also impressed with the measures DDC took to ensure the results were accurate and reliable, including testing each sample twice. I noticed a number at the top of the page that could be called for a free consultation, which I thought was a great customer support feature. It sounded like this would be easy to do, as the product description explained that all I’d have to do was submit cheek swab samples, taken via the kit provided. I read that the test would have a 100% success rate, as long as the steps were followed correctly. I could choose between ‘Peace of Mind’, ‘Legal’ or ‘Prenatal’ options, with a page dedicated to each. The paternity test was easy to find on the DDC website. The company is based primarily in the UK and US, but offers its services to customers all across the globe. In addition, DDC offers tests that analyze DNA to report on ancestry, health, skincare, and several other categories. Founded over 20 years ago and now headed up by Connie Hallquist, the company specializes in testing various biological relationships, for both legal and ‘peace of mind’ purposes.

I’d definitely feel confident in using the service again, if I needed to. When the results arrived, they were clear and well explained. In particular, I was impressed with the speed at which I received my results, as well as the numerous options provided when ordering, allowing me to cater the test to my particular situation. I was pleased with DDC’s paternity testing service.
