Name and photo sharing can also be disabled entirely if you prefer. You can choose to share your photo and poster automatically with all of your contacts, or you can have your iPhone get permission from you first. The Contact Poster and Contact Photo that you choose will be shared with others when you call or message them, but there are some settings you can use to restrict access. You can have multiple Contact Posters to swap between, and you can create a Contact Photo that's different from your Contact Poster. Just open Contacts, tap on "My Card" and then tap on "Edit" in the upper right corner to get to the editing interface.įrom there, you can choose a photo, select a color for the text, add a filter, and more. When you install iOS 17, you'll be prompted to make a Contact Poster, but you can tweak it at any time in the Contacts app. You can customize it with a photo, Memoji, Animoji, or an initial, and choose the colors and fonts that you prefer. In iOS 17, there's a customizable Contact Poster that people see when you call, FaceTime, or text them. On the Home Screen, long press, tap on the "+" button in the upper left corner, and select the widget that you want to add. Lock Screen widgets can be customized by long pressing on the Lock Screen, choosing a Lock Screen option, and then tapping "Customize." From there, select the Lock Screen and then tap into the widgets box to choose your widget options. You can do things like check off a reminder or activate a home device right from a widget without having to open an app.īoth Apple apps and third-party apps are able to use the new interactive functionality, so you might want to redo your widget setup now that certain widgets are more useful. Lock Screen and Home Screen widgets are interactive in iOS 17, which makes widgets much more useful. StandBy can be a little bit complicated when you're not familiar with it, so we recommend looking through our StandBy guide to see the full extent of what you can do with it. ![]() For example, you might prefer widgets when at the office, or the clock screen when the iPhone is on your nightstand. When you use StandBy with different MagSafe chargers in separate locations, you can customize your phone to remember which screen configuration you prefer based on location. StandBy can show you incoming notifications, Live Activities, and Siri queries full screen. Customizing is done by swapping over to the correct screen and long pressing on it to get to the customization options. You will want to customize your two widget stacks on the widget screen to make it more useful, and you can also customize how the time is displayed and the photos that you see. The first screen displays widgets (including interactive widgets), the second showcases photos from the Photos library, and the third is a large clock that shows the time. There are three total StandBy screens that you can access by swiping between them when your phone is in the appropriate StandBy position. ![]() StandBy is most useful on the iPhone 14 Pro models with always-on display, but it is available on all iPhones that run iOS 17. StandBy serves as a home hub to show glanceable information that makes your iPhone more useful when it's not being actively used. When you charge an iPhone running iOS 17 in an upright and horizontal orientation, it displays a new StandBy screen. Some of these options require some set up to get up and running, so we've written this guide that walks you through what you should do after installing iOS 17. Apple today released iOS 17 to the public, and there are hundreds of new features and changes for you to learn about.

![]() ![]() All the pictures and data collected during the first three days of the flight came up empty.īy the time Endeavour leaves next week, the space station will be 98 percent complete. The good news Wednesday was that Endeavour’s heat shield looks to be free of any major launch damage. The wing was smacked by a piece of fuel-tank foam insulation that broke off at liftoff, and the extent of the damage was not known until the shuttle broke apart during re-entry. NASA has been extra careful about such matters ever since Columbia was brought down by a cracked wing in 2003. “So we’ll let the team go off and do the work.” “We have more questions than answers at this point,” Cain said. They could inadvertently create a worse problem if they damaged the sensitive equipment, Cain said at a news conference. NASA would prefer not sending astronauts out to work near the cockpit windows and other critical systems. Another two to three days of analyses are needed. Engineers are trying to determine whether the spacer might come loose during re-entry and, if it did, whether it would slam into the rudder or orbital-maneuvering rockets.Ĭain said it’s too soon to know whether Behnken and his spacewalking partner, Nicholas Patrick, would need to attempt repairs. Then there’s the round ceramic spacer near one of the cockpit windows that’s sticking out. The yellow circle highlights an area on Endeavour's thermal tile where a repaired crack is causing fresh concern. The unexpected shuttle problems grabbed management’s attention Wednesday.Ī thermal tile repair that was made before the flight has failed, and the original crack is back, right over the cockpit. It’s conceivable excess calcium in their urine is clogging the machine, but officials believe the system itself is also to blame. The repair work is such a high priority that it began within hours of the shuttle’s arrival early Wednesday.Īstronauts can suffer considerable bone loss in weightlessness. Endeavour took up replacement parts as well as a filter to catch all the calcium deposits in the urine. The most important job - installing a new room and an observation deck at the International Space Station - will get under way during Thursday night’s spacewalk, the first of three.Īs for the space station’s water recycling system, the urine processor has been acting up for months. So he borrowed the upper part of a suit already on the space station. Shuttle astronaut Robert Behnken’s spacesuit was unusable because of a faulty harness that prevented him from turning on his glove heaters and operating his helmet camera. They overcame a spacesuit problem in advance of Thursday night’s spacewalk and replaced broken parts in a system that turns astronauts’ urine into drinking water. As engineers on the ground scrambled to understand the problems and determine whether repairs were needed, the 11 astronauts aboard the linked space shuttle and space station spent a relatively quiet first day together. ![]() Best GarageBand Windows Alternatives Listed!īest GarageBand Windows Alternatives Listed!.GarageBand 2.1 for iOS is bundled free with new iOS devices 32GB and larger, is available as a free upgrade for existing users with compatible iOS 9 devices or later, and is available to everyone else for $4.99 via the App Store. Music Memos is available for free on the App Store and is compatible with iPhone 4s and later, and iPad 2 and later. ![]() You can also create your own from scratch-either way, it’s easy to get started. Apple added 1200 new loops to this version of GarageBand, so you’ll have a lot o choices.Īpple includes quite a few Live Loop templates in a variety of genres including EDM, Hip Hop, Dubstep and Rock. You can easily add loops by tapping on a cell and choosing one of the included loops. Of course, GarageBand automatically keeps everything in sync with perfect time and pitch, so it’s hard to really screw something up. I played around with Live Loops and it’s very intuitive, even for a novice DJ like me. It allows you to create music by simply tapping on cells or playing a column of cells in a grid. That has to go to a new feature called Live Loops.Īpple says Live Loops was inspired by DJ hardware controllers and drum machines. The new version also supports supports 3D Touch on iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus, but those are not the biggest features of this new version. In case you missed it above, GarageBand 2.1 for iOS introduces the drummer feature found in Logic and GarageBand for Mac, and it works great. It answers a lot of the problems musicians have had over the years in recording ideas quickly and easily, but it took that 100 steps further. ![]() The bass tracks are exported as MIDI, so they can be edited, and GarageBand recognizes the drummer track, so you can make whatever changes you want there as well. However, if you export them to GarageBand, the files are transferred into a multitrack GarageBand project, where they can be edited and adjusted as needed. If you do this, the uncompressed audio files in the app are compressed so they can be easily shared. Of course, all of the Music Memo files can be shared to social media. There is also a place within each file to store lyrics, what tuning you used for the instrument-even custom tunings-capo position and other information. As you move the slider, it will show you files you worked on the most, or have tags, or that are named-basically files you showed some interest in. Of course, you can go back later and search for any of those tags, but Apple also included a smart slider. You can name the song so it’s easier to find later, but you can also tag the piece of music using the location or whether it’s a verse, chorus, etc. Since Music Memos analyzed the audio track you recorded, it follows along with you, even if you sped up or slowed down during the recording. Like Drummer in GarageBand or Logic, you can choose a different type of drummer, go half time, or any number of other options. Simply tap on those instruments and you can hear your song idea with a full band. The brilliance of the app is that Apple built-in a drummer and bass into the app. It places the chords you played right on the waveform so you can see them instantly 1. Music Memos analyzes the recording for tempo and chord changes for guitar and piano. The 24-bit 44.1kHz audio file is recorded to your iPhone, but it’s when you stop recording that the magic of this app happens. The app will show you a waveform at the bottom of the screen and you will also get feedback from the circular record button as well. Tap the record button and start playing your guitar (piano or other instrument) and it records. When you first launch Music Memos, you are treated with a record button in the center of the screen-it couldn’t be simpler. Sometimes I work them into full songs, sometimes I combine different ideas to make a song and sometimes they just sit there because I have no idea what they are.Īpple took the idea of Voice Memos and expanded it for musicians with a new iOS app called Music Memos. I have hundreds of these little snippets on my iPhone. If I don’t record the idea then and there, it’s gone forever. Sometimes I just hum the idea, but most of the time I’ll be playing my guitar and just reach over and tap record. Like many musicians, Voice Memos has become a quick and easy way for me to record my music ideas. I’m usually pretty excited when Apple updates its music software, but I was blown away when they showed me their newest app, Music Memos and the updates they did to GarageBand on iOS. ![]() ![]() By providing an easy way to create and edit files, MS Paint has been key for numerous users to express their creativity, even with the limitations that the program has. Overall, Microsoft's program continues to withstand the test of time, despite the innovations we see today in the world of photo editing and digital painting. You can paste the URLs of the videos or use the integrated search engine directly. You will no longer need to open YouTube to watch that video you love so much over and over again. You can even use an external stylus that is compatible. Viddly for Windows is a good example, and its free version has the necessary features for most of its potential users. It is now included in Windows 11 and is adapted to work on touch screens. Recently, MS Paint received a facelift from Microsoft with the intention of making it more modern. We can also use a scanner to digitize our images and edit them in MS Paint, or even external cameras. MS Paint is compatible with a wide variety of formats, such as Windows Bitmap ( BMP), JPEG, PNG, GIF, and single-page TIFF files. Furthermore, its familiarity and ease of use make MS Paint very popular among users with no experience in graphic design or image editing. It is ideal for resizing images, adding text, or simply including basic graphics. Simple, but effectiveĬontrary to popular belief, MS Paint is an excellent tool for those looking for a quick and simple way to perform basic image editing tasks. Although it may lack the advanced capabilities of other free programs ( Canvas, for example), the charm of MS Paint lies in its simplicity. From pixel art creation to quick editing of screenshots, MS Paint offers a wide range of creative possibilities. The program runs on a fairly simple user interface that allows drawing, coloring, editing, and manipulating images. ![]() He is presumed dead by the Halloween citizens, but eventually is shown to be alive. Their parents believe Jack to be an imposter attempting to imitate Santa, and the military is commissioned to shoot Jack out of the sky. As Jack begins delivering gifts, children are horrified by their monstrous, which include shrunken heads, man-eating wreaths, vampiric teddy bears, 30-foot snakes, and pull-string ducks dotted with bloody bullet holes. Against Jack's wishes and largely for their amusement, the trio deliver Santa to Oogie Boogie, a gambling-addict bogeyman who plots to play a game with Santa's life as the stake.Ĭhristmas Eve arrives and Sally attempts to stop Jack, but he embarks into the sky on a coffin-like sled pulled by skeletal reindeer, hoping to deliver presents to children around the world. Jack then assigns Lock, Shock, and Barrel, a trio of mischievous children to abduct Santa and take him to Halloween Town. However, she alone fears that his plans will become disastrous. Every resident is assigned a task, while Sally, a rag doll-type resident, begins a romantic attraction towards Jack. Jack's obsession with Christmas leads him to usurp the role of Santa Claus. Nonetheless the townspeople agree to celebrate Christmas and take over the holiday. While Jack may slightly understand Christmas, the townspeople fail to do so and compare everything Jack says to their ideas of Halloween. Impressed by the feeling and style of Christmas, Jack presents the culture to the citizens of Halloween Town of his slightly inaccurate impressions. He ends up walking farther away from Halloweentown where he finds the holiday realms and is fascinated he also discovers the Christmas realm and accidentally falls into the portal to "Christmas Town". He wanders in the wilderness, wishing he could fill an empty part of him. ![]() Jack Skellington, "King of the pumpkin patch", is a respected entertainer amongst the citizens and grows tired of the repetitive yearly celebration of Halloween. Another Halloween has come and gone and everyone is returning from scaring people. Taking place in a land with doors to all holiday realms, "Halloween Town" is a dream world filled with citizens such as ghosts, ghouls, vampires, werewolves, witches, monsters, and deforms. Disney has reissued the film under their Disney Digital 3-D format in 2006. The Nightmare Before Christmas has been viewed with critical and financial success. Disney decided to finally give it a shot, but Touchstone Pictures, a division of Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures responsible for more mature themes and darker toned movies that are targeted to an adult audience, would distribute the movie. So it was only in 1990 that both parts finally came to an agreement. Walt Disney Studios intinally thought Nightmare was actually "too dark and scary" to be released under the Walt Disney Pictures banner. ![]() Production started in July 1991 in San Francesco. Over the years, Burton's thoughts regularly returned to the project, and in 1990, Burton and Disney made a development deal. With the success of Vincent in 1982, Disney started to consider The Nightmare Before Christmas as either a short subject or 30-minute television special. The genesis of The Nightmare Before Christmas started with a poem by Burton as a Disney animator in the early-1980s. Jack is impressed by the feelings and style of Christmas, and believes he can take over the holiday by adding elements of Halloween. The Nightmare Before Christmas tells the story of Jack Skellington, a being from " Halloween Town" who opens a portal to "Christmas Town". The remaining principal voice cast includes Chris Sarandon, Catherine O'Hara, Glenn Shadix, Ken Page, and William Hickey. Danny Elfman wrote the film score and provided the singing voice of Jack Skellington, as well as other minor characters. The Nightmare Before Christmas (also known as Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas) is a 1993 American stop-motion animated musical dark fantasy film directed by Henry Selick and produced/co-written by Tim Burton. The process can actually be quite dangerous and might result in a turtle never waking up. ![]() It’s usually recommended that only turtle owners with experience should support their turtle going through brumation. This will include occasional soaking to avoid dehydration, doing weigh-ins, and ensuring that their environment is stable. ![]() You should check on your turtle throughout the brumation to ensure that they are okay. Any more weight loss than that might be a health problem. They will bury themselves, and throughout the brumation, they will lose weight-an average of 6% to 7% altogether. When the turtle gets closer to the start of brumation, they will taper off and eventually stop eating. A habitat temperature of about 41☏ (5☌) is ideal for brumation. They need to gain weight over the summer with foods high in vitamin A. You also need to check that your turtle is a species that goes through brumation. They can check your turtle to ensure that they will be able to safely brumate and give you further advice. It would be a good idea to ask your veterinarian for help in this area. Your turtle must be in good health and at a minimum, the age of 4. Some pet turtles might even brumate when everything stays the same, including any light cycles that you have set up. Image Credit: Piqselsīrumation is an innate behavior that happens because the turtle’s body is telling them to brumate. However, adult turtles can’t survive frigid temperatures, and being underwater during brumation enables their body temperature to remain fairly stable because pond water tends to stay the same over the winter. But they have another unique feature: Turtles can breathe through their butts, more officially known as cloacal respiration. When turtles are in ponds, the colder the water gets, the slower the turtle’s metabolism gets, which means they have lower energy and oxygen requirements. Since they are an ectotherm and reliant on the temperature of their immediate environment, if the pond’s temperature is 34☏ (1☌), so is the turtle’s body. The cooler air begins to slow down a turtle’s metabolism. Most turtles will start brumation in the autumn, around October and November, when the temperature starts to plummet and the daylight hours decrease. So, rousing every now and then is essential for their survival. They aren’t in quite the same deep sleep and don’t have the same food and water reserves as hibernating animals. But brumating animals will move on warmer days to find water and sometimes food. The main difference between hibernation and brumation is that hibernating animals do not move until they come out of their hibernation. ![]() Their respiratory rate, body temperature, and heart rate also drop, like in hibernation. Image Credit: TIPAKORN-MAKORNSEN, Shutterstock BrumationĬold-blooded, or ectothermic, animals can’t regulate their body temperature like warm-blooded animals can, so they rely on their immediate environment to absorb heat to regulate their body temperature.Ĭertain reptiles hide in rock crevices during cold weather and might even burrow underground. Hibernating animals do not need to consume water or food because they live on the body’s reserves from food eaten in the prior months. These animals can hibernate for a few days, weeks, or months, depending on the temperature and the animal’s condition. This helps the animal conserve energy and increases the odds of survival when food sources are at a minimum. Their metabolic rate, heart rate, body temperature, and breathing rate all slow down during the cold winter months. Humans and most mammals are endotherms.īesides bears, ground squirrels and certain species of marmots and bats hibernate. Endotherms generate their own internal heat and can warm up by producing metabolic heat and through shivering. Hibernation is a period of dormancy that warm-blooded animals, or endotherms, enter during cold weather. ![]() ![]() To get Vole Internet Expedition user manual, you can search ‘Sanwhole Software User Manual Professional Edition’ to find the VMC product introduction page.

They couldn't make the big plays when they needed them. ![]() A complete team win for the defending Super Bowl champions. The Kansas City defense also did its part, sacking Justin Herbert five times and forcing two interceptions. His mind meld with All-Pro tight end Travis Kelce has never looked stronger as the two connected for nine catches, 143 yards and a touchdown in the first half alone. Throwing for 321 and three touchdowns is typically the output for a strong quarterback for an entire games. Patrick Mahomes simply couldn't be stopped in the first half. Here are the key takeaways from the battle between two of the NFL's top quarterbacks: Why the Chiefs won The Chiefs defense continued their run of holding opponents to 21 or fewer points in the victory, something they have done in all seven games in 2023. Herbert couldn't quite go toe to toe with Mahomes, throwing for 259 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions. That ties with future Hall of Famer Drew Brees for the most such games in league history, while only Hall of Famers Peyton Manning (eight) and Dan Marino (seven) have more such games in their career. He totaled 424 passing yards, four touchdowns and one interception on 32 of 42 passing, giving the reigning MVP his fifth career game with over 400 passing yards and four passing touchdowns. Mahomes helped the Chiefs improve to 6-1, and his head-to-head tally against Herbert to 5-1. The final result was also similar as the Chiefs triumphed 31-17. Every time Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert squares off against quarterback Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs, plenty of points are guaranteed, and Sunday at Arrowhead Stadium was no different, at least in the first half. ![]() Panic(cpu 1 caller 0xfffffff016f67138): Kernel data abort.
