Until then, here is the official EverydayHDR review! The Interface: Don’t miss this coming Friday’s Tutorial, I will show some pretty cool uses for Detail 3. These additions make for some incredible detail corrections. Topaz added the ability to adjust the Highlights and Shadows in the Tone section as well as detail control in the Highlights, Shadows, or Both. UPDATE: I just got word from Larry Becker (NAPP’s Executive Director) that NAPP members get 25% off Topaz plug-ins (check the member web site for details).The engineers at Topaz Labs have out done themselves yet again! Topaz Detail 3 is not only a great program for adding detail to any photo that may be lacking it, but it boasts some awesome features that make it almost like a mini Camera Raw. Here’s a link for more details on the new Topaz Adjust 4. While I can nit pick some of this little stuff (both of which really just make me kind of chuckle), you can’t argue with the quality it produces the ease of how it does it’s thing, and the incredible value for the price if you’re buying the plug-in for the first time (and of course, if you’re already a registered user, the upgrade is free). Those two minor things aside, this is a big step ahead for Topaz in refining and expanding their plug-ins. If my teenage son read that, he’d say “Duh!” Secondly, it goes on to tell the user that when you’re done with filter click OK or Cancel. I’m not sure it’s necessary to reinforce that. OK, so, ‘Why?” I just chose Topaz Adjust 4 from the Filter menu in Photoshop, so I was pretty sure the next thing that would appear was the Topaz plug-in. When you launch the plug-in from Photoshop’s filter menu, the dialog you see below appears: So, when I’m done editing I keep going over to click where OK should be, but instead it says “I feel lucky.” At that moment, I don’t feel lucky. Instead of putting it in the bottom right hand corner of the window (where everything from phone numbers in print ads to OK buttons usually wind up, simply because that’s where we’ve all be trained to look for them since just after birth), instead it appears below the center preview window. I do love the new interface-a huge improvement over the old one, but there are two little things that are driving me a little crazy (but, of course, these may just bother me-you may not bat an eye), but to me it seems like they stuck the “OK” button in the wrong place. So far, I agree with everything, except on my machine the stability part isn’t 100% there yet, as it does occasionally crash, but I imagine a bug fix will be on the way soon. …includes many new presets, the ability to handle larger images, a new user interface, faster noise reduction, and greater stability. Here’s what the gang at Topaz says is new 4: I use the Topaz Adjust 3 plug-in quite a bit, and this upgrade (which is free to existing customers, which is awesome) is a big step in the right direction. That’s not a criticism-you open it and you immediately know how to get around, and how things will work, and that’s not a bad thing. In fact, if you use Lightroom plug-in version of Topaz Adjust 4, you might not even realize you’ve left Lightroom, as the layout is so similar. Earlier this week I got my hands on the latest version of one of my favorite plug-ins, Topaz Adjust, which now sports a clean, new very, very, very Lightroom-like interface.

The data from various external systems that might be relevant to that customer engagement then flows into the application in near real time. Each customer engagement is treated like a case that gets opened. The Pegasystems CRM is built more around the notion of case management. The Salesforce CRM application presents a clean user interface that is easily accessible from any desktop or mobile computing device. Salesforce has spent years optimizing the user experience across multiple platforms. However, the cost of entry for Pega CRM is higher than Salesforce CRM by several orders of magnitude. Organizations deploying Pega CRM on on-premises can expect even higher total costs.Īs is often the case with enterprise software, the total cost of an application is going to vary substantially once all the modules counted, the numbers of users per month is tabulated, and, of course, just how tough a negotiator any customer can be. Pega CRM is available in a wide variety of flavors, but a subscription to “customer service applications” running in a single tenant cloud platform managed by Pegasystems is listed on the company’s Web site as running anywhere from $97 for “case management” to $295 per user per month for an “omni- channel experience.” Third-party vendors, however, list PegaCRM for sale online at $200 per user per month. Salesforce has also built a reputation for not being willing to negotiate on pricing. Salesforce starts at a cost of $25 per user per month that can easily rise as more capabilities are invoked. Starts at $25 per user per month for an annual subscription Starts at $95 per user per month based on consumption In the case of Pegasystems, CRM applications are clearly the window through which increasingly digital business processes can be managed. Armed with the data that can be directly accessed from with PegaCRM, salespeople can be provided with a lot more insight into an organization’s supply chain to more accurately inform customers, for example, when a certain quantity of product might be available and delivered. The fundamental difference is the level of actionable intelligence that can be surfaced within PegaCRM once it is integrated with the BPM platform developed by Pegasystems. Pegasytems CRM has most of the capabilities any sales team is going to require. However, in terms of empowering salespeople, there’s a reason why so many sales teams have standardized on Salesforce. Regardless of the application category, most users only wind up regularly employing about 10 to 20 percent of the capabilities in that application. Less clear is to what degree any sales team is going to use any set of application features. Salesforce clearly still view sales teams at the center of the business universe, so it should not come as a surprise that there are more features and capabilities in its core CRM offering. What are the Similarities & Differences between Salesforce and Pegasystems? In fact, it’s apparent Salesforce is playing catchup in terms of providing an integrated application experience that spans the entire customer experience management process. At the same time, Salesforce has been acquiring a suite of marketing applications that will one day share a common data object model with its namesake CRM application.įrom the perspective of a sales team there’s no doubt Salesforce is the more accessible and feature rich of the two CRM applications, there’s a lot of merit in a Pegasystems approach that views CRM applications as essentially the front-end application through which business processes that span the entire enterprise are integrated. To provide a similar level of integrated application experience, Salesforce has invested in multiple integration frameworks, including moving to acquire MuleSoft in 2018. Pegasystems first gained recognition as a provider of a business process management (BPM) that the company has subsequently extended to create a set of highly integrated sales and marketing applications. Salesforce is currently evolving from providing a simple software-as-a-service (SaaS) application that tracked sales leads to a suite of cloud applications that promise to driver superior customer experiences. Salesforce and Pegasystems could not be further apart in terms of where both companies started their respective customer relationship management (CRM) journeys. I do recommend you use sweet relish, not dill pickle relish. The pickle relish in this recipe provides a lot of flavor, thanks to the sweetness and tartness of the pickle brine. Can I use something besides pickle relish? If you’re watching your calories, it’s fine to use light mayonnaise in this recipe. What kind of mayonnaise should I use in chicken salad?Īs I mentioned previously, I like to use Duke’s Mayonnaise in chicken salad. I usually keep some canned chicken breast in my pantry so I can make this southern chicken salad at a moment’s notice. My mom usually made this chicken salad using canned Swanson’s or Tyson chicken breast. If using leftover chicken, you just want to make sure to shred it, using two forks or your mixer, before making the chicken salad. You can poach a chicken breast or use leftover grilled or rotisserie chicken or open up a can of white-meat chicken. When it comes to the three basic ingredients in this easy homemade chicken salad recipe, you have flexibility there, too. Grilled Chicken Salad with Fruit Salsa & Poppy Seed DressingĬan I make chicken salad with canned chicken?. See, all my food issues are my Mama’s fault! □ (But mayonnaise does work wonders on your hair!) It’s all because my prankster Mama stuck a spoonful in my mouth when she was giving me a mayonnaise hair conditioning treatment when I was a teenager. I can only stomach a little bit at a time. I know I’m a southerner, but I don’t treat mayo as its own food group. People can always add mayonnaise to their bread if they want a moister sandwich. You just want to use enough to hold everything together. You don’t want the chicken swimming in mayonnaise. I’m always cautious about not overdoing it with mayonnaise. The base ingredients are simple, so if you want to add something else to it, you don’t have to worry about flavors clashing.Īs you add mix-ins, you may want to increase the mayonnaise just a bit to prevent the chicken salad from becoming too dry. That’s the beauty of a homemade chicken salad like this one. Starting with this basic recipe, you can create all kinds of chicken salad variations. This simple chicken salad recipe can be dressed up, as well, when you’re feeling a little fancy. Bake up some wonton cups and add a dollop of chicken salad for a bite-sized appetizer.įor a snack, it’s great on saltine crackers. This easy canned chicken salad recipe is very versatile.īesides the simple salad and sandwich route, you can serve it in phyllo cups as party appetizer or on croissants for an event like a bridal or baby shower. How should I serve homemade chicken salad?

Charles Stanley’s devotions, daily verses for Bible Studies, Teachings and Books are derived from His Sermons which are full of the inspiration of God. It contains the mind of God and His will for each one of our lives. Most important of all, the Bible is the Word of God. The Bible is an incredible book of history and facts that proves that there is a God that created all things. Charles Stanley Sermons, Teachings, Books, Daily Devotions and Bible Studies? Stanley’s motivation is best represented by the truth found in Acts 20:24, “Life is worth nothing unless I use it for doing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus-the work of telling others the Good News about God's mighty kindness and love.” This is because, as he says, “It is the Word of God and the work of God that changes people’s lives.” Where can I find Dr. Stanley decides to call his Ministry "In Touch," which comes from a Living Bible he owned.ĭr. Stanley has been said to demonstrate a practical, keen awareness of people's needs and provide Christ-centered, biblically-based principles for everyday life and spiritual growth. While his teaching is transmitted throughout the world to millions of people, Dr. Stanley is the founder and the senior pastor of In Touch Ministries and a New York Times best-selling author. CHARLES STANLEY 2023, TEACHINGS AND BIBLE STUDIESĬharles F. Paul lived out his faith at all costs, even willing to give his life for the gospel if others would come to know Christ.SERMONS ONLINE BY DR. Paul was currently in prison, he knows that many are distressed by his current circumstance, but in a hope to put their minds at ease, he shares that his suffering is not in vain but for the advancement of the gospel! Paul was well acquainted with suffering he’d been beaten numerous times, imprisoned on more than one occasion, and mocked, yet, all these things allowed him to proclaim the name of Christ further. These verses are a part of the letter Paul wrote to the church of Philippi. Curious about other translations, I read the NLT version, “For to me, living means living for Christ, and dying is even better.” Like many things in the Bible, this verse is a paradox, the words counter-cultural. That’s when I landed on Philippians 1:21 the familiar words immediately touched my heart. To encourage others and help me better process her death, I began reading through my Bible, lingering on highlighted and underlined verses. Even those with the strongest of faith couldn’t help but ask why? Why did God take someone so full of life, so on fire for Him, who lived and breathed the gospel message? For many, the sudden loss, myself included, was just too much to bear we knew what the Scriptures said, fully believing she was in the presence of our Savior, yet, we still found it difficult to understand why the Lord would allow her passing. And yet, it wasn’t until a few weeks ago that I truly began to understand the verse.Ī close friend, mentor, and pillar in our church and community passed away unexpectedly. I’ve read Philippians 1:21 countless times, plastered on coffee mugs, scribbled on t-shirts, and scrolled on decorative notebooks and cards. “For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.” - Philippians 1:21, NIV Whether you’re doing it for your sweetheart or just for yourself, let us help you celebrate the skin you’re in with a fun and intimate portrait session unlike any other.

Is the electron spin quantum number. This number is used to distinguish between the two electrons in a single orbital. The magnetic quantum number can be any integer greater than and less than, with the total number of possible orbitals given by. Each orientation constitutes a different orbital and can hold exactly two electrons. These values correspond to orientations along the x-axis, y-axis, or z-axis. For example, a p orbital has three different orientations based on three different values for the magnetic quantum number. The magnetic quantum number,, gives the orientation of the subshell given by the azimuthal quantum number. Each subshell has a different shape, corresponding to spdf configurations. The azimuthal (angular momentum) quantum number,, refers to the subshell of the energy level. It essentially describes the size of the electron shell, and can be any integer value. The principle quantum number,, gives the energy level of the electron. Of these, the magnetic quantum number ( ) gives the orientation of the orbital in three-dimensional space. The location of a given electron is described by a set of four quantum numbers. The only false statement concerns the angular momentum quantum number, confusing it with the quantum number. Each orbital will hold two electrons, for a total of ten. The subshell ( ) can carry a total of five orbitals, corresponding to the values of. is the electron spin quantum number. This number is used to distinguish between the two electrons in a single orbital. As this value increases, the size of the orbital increases and is located farther from the atom nucleus. The first and second quantum numbers will always be greater than or equal to zero. The answer choice that gives an impossible set of quantum numbers has a negative second quantum number. The final quantum number can only carry a value of positive or negative one-half: The third quantum number is an integer between the value of the second quantum number and its inverse: The second quantum number is any integer greater than zero and less than the first quantum number: The first quantum number is a positive integer: Each orbital can only carry two electrons. Finally, the fourth quantum number describes the spin of the electron as either positive or negative. The third quantum number tells the orbital within the subshell that holds the electron. The second quantum number describes the electron subshell, corresponding to the s, p, d, and f subshells. The first quantum number corresponds to the energy level, which matches with the period of the periodic table in which the element is usually found. Quantum numbers are used to describe the location of an electron within the electron cloud. Robert Smithson's Spiral Jetty in November 2020 Jota Cartas “People who travel there respect the place and follow the leave-no-trace rule, something that is ingrained in those who live in the West.” But Spiral Jetty attracts “fantastic visitors, who for the most part keep the site well-maintained”, Kivland says. Other outdoor cultural destinations in Utah have been negatively impacted due to increased visitation, including some ancient rock art panels that were vandalised in the past few months. “It was getting to the point that it was a steady line of cars.” “We were having 60 to 100 cars an hour on weekends,“ county commissioner Stan Summers told the local TV station KSL. The surge in visitors to Spiral Jetty has recently led officials in Box Elder County to buy around 10 acres of land near the site so they can build amenities, such as more parking and toilets. “People are still heading out into the expanse of the land.” “There was a big increase in visitors during the pandemic, but the uptick has continued,” says Kelly Kivland, a former curator at the Dia Art Foundation, which oversees the site with the Great Salt Lake Institute, the Utah Museum of Fine Arts and the Holt-Smithson Foundation. And on 22 March, when Utah announced its first death from the coronavirus and implemented stricter isolation orders, the site received a staggering 700 vehicles per day. More than 400 vehicles per day travelled to the Land Art site when lockdown restrictions went into effect in the state in late March, compared to an average of 140 vehicles around the same time the previous year. Robert Smithson’s famous earthwork Spiral Jetty (1970) in the Great Salt Lake in Utah saw a dramatic spike in visitors at the start of the coronavirus pandemic last year, according to an underground car-counting sensor installed in 2017 to monitor visitation to the site.
