![]() ![]() With that said, it doesn’t mean that they will prevent every type of allergy, and every pet parent is different than the next. This is especially true if you’re welcoming a new Westie into your home of the same sex as your existing dogs.īack to our original question, are Westies hypoallergenic? Again, they absolutely are. However, you may have a little difficulty with bossiness and their assertive personality. If you have other pets in the home, know that this breed will likely work better with other dogs than most other terriers. As they are incredibly small, they are also fast, which makes them nearly impossible to catch. Otherwise, they will have the tendency to get distracted by plenty of other animals and take off before you know it. It’s highly recommended that unless you have thoroughly trained your Westie, you only unleash them in an enclosed area where you can control where they run off to. With that said, they are also notoriously friendly, which makes them great for introducing to new family members. ![]() Westies are seemingly always alert to movement and new people in the home. If you’re interested in owning a dog that will always keep you aware of your surroundings, this is one breed to consider. They are known to be phenomenal people-pleasers, but at times, they also like to head off onto their own paths. Nevertheless, they have a soft side when it comes to their family. Similar to many other types of dogs, these small Scottish terriers are fiercely independent. It’s highly recommended that you wash them at least once a week, however, to keep any dander at bay.Ī few other important traits of a Westie to consider include: The main feature of a Westie that makes them hypoallergenic is that they shed very little. Medicated and Non-Medicated ShampoosĪre Westies hypoallergenic? Yes, they are! They are one of the best breeds to consider if you’re prone to sneezing, coughing, and itching as a result of dogs being around your own space. Table of Contents (click to expand) Toggle ![]()

The rest will be in parallel to it.Īs the light rays are in parallel, and they shine from very far away, the exact coordinates don't matter here – rather, their proportions do. This specific light ray will shine from the position we define (200,500,300) to the 0,0,0 coordinate. Out of all the parallel rays we define one in particular. This position can be a bit confusing so let me explain. We set a position for this light that defines the direction of these light rays. The directional light shines from very far away with parallel light rays. The ambient light is shining from every direction, giving a base color for our geometry while the directional light simulates the sun. The intensity is a number between 0 and 1, and as both of them shine simultaneously we want these values somewhere around 0.5.Ĭonst ambientLight = new THREE.AmbientLight(0xffffff, 0.6) Ĭonst directionalLight = new THREE.DirectionalLight(0xffffff, 0.8) ĭ(200, 500, 300) ![]() We define both by setting a color and an intensity.

![]() ![]() ![]() Financial technology firms have blossomed during this period. We’ve seen a revolution in financing, with the pandemic accelerating the digital transformation. Collaboration Between Lenders And Fintech Companies You can expect data to play an increasingly significant role as lenders analyze the multiple data points at their fingertips, including financial performance, customer behavior and market trends. The use of technology is making it easier to collect data that can be valuable information for lenders and investors in assessing risk and making SMB financing decisions. Using these tools, digital platforms can streamline lending, making it easier and more efficient for SMBs to apply for, receive and utilize funding. I believe that AI and machine learning algorithms will continue to help institutions assess creditworthiness and risk, allowing lenders to serve many more clients and freeing up teams to focus on customer service and relationships.Īs a part of this increased reliance on technology, blockchain as a distributed database can help enhance transparency and seamlessness in transactions, making them more secure. In contrast, the Amery Ice Shelf – on the other side of Antarctica and surrounded by much colder waters – gained 1.2 trillion tonnes of ice.Technology, especially artificial intelligence (AI), will remain central to SMB financing in the future. The rest was because of melting from the underside of the ice shelf. ![]() Around a third of this loss – 450 billion tonnes – was due to calving. Similarly, the Pine Island Ice Shelf lost 1.3 trillion tonnes of ice. The rest was due to melting at the base of the ice shelf. ![]() Just 5% of this was caused by calving, where large chunks of ice breakaway from the shelf and fall into the ocean. “The western half is exposed to warm water, which can rapidly erode the ice shelves from below, whereas much of East Antarctica is currently protected by a band of cold water at the coast.”Īntarctica is a vast continent, and the seas on the western side experience different currents and winds compared to the east, and this drives warmer water underneath the ice shelves on the western flank.Īs a result, the Getz Ice Shelf experienced some of the biggest ice losses, where 1.9 trillion tonnes of ice were lost over the 25-year study period. In contrast, most of the ice shelves on the eastern side remained intact or increased in mass.īenjamin Davison, a research fellow at the University of Leeds, said, “There is a mixed picture of ice-shelf deterioration, and this is to do with the ocean temperature and ocean currents around Antarctica. Moreover, the research team found that almost all the ice shelves on the western side of Antarctica experienced ice loss. Apart from the issue of the ice shelves losing mass, this addition of freshwater into the ocean could have implications for ocean circulation patterns. The research team, led by scientists from the University of Leeds, found that 71 of the 162 ice shelves around Antarctica have reduced in volume, releasing almost 67 trillion tonnes of meltwater into the ocean. The Antarctic, therefore, faces a double whammy – as the ice shelves get smaller, the rate of ice lost from the ice sheet increases. These massive floating extensions of the continent's ice sheet play a crucial role in stabilising the region's glaciers by acting as buttresses, slowing the flow of ice into the ocean. The study, funded by ESA’s Earth Observation Science for Society programme and now published in the journal Science Advances, is based on 100,000 satellite radar images to produce a major assessment of the ‘state of the health’ of Antarctica’s ice shelves. ![]() ![]() ![]() Audiobooks have become her go-to and she always has one queued up. She still listens to bestsellers, classics, and her favorite sappy romances. Is reading a thing of the past for her? Not with audiobooks! Her friends still ask what she’s reading, and she loves those book discussions they once had. By the time she climbs into bed with her book, she falls asleep before she gets through the first page. Her long commute is tiring and her three kids and their activities take up much of her time away from work. Here’s a scenario: A 45-year-old lawyer who once loved to read books and discuss them with her friends can’t find time to read anymore. Throw an opportunity to sample an audiobook in, and you’re opening your own opportunity to make more sales of your book. With more people finding time to listen rather than read their books, they love a good audiobook. Whereas the print book and even ebooks are seeing a bit of a decline in sales, the audiobook continues to gain traction. People can download almost any book to their phones and listen wherever they go. With content being so accessible, almost every book can be listened to in audiobook format. Cars had CD players so people loved them for road trips and immersing themselves in listening to a great novel. Most bookstores sold them and major publishing houses had audiobook divisions. They were much more convenient as more could fit on a CD than a cassette. Once audiobooks were on CDs, it was easier to have and listen to them. Then there were audiobooks on CDs in the 1980s. The 1960s saw the rise of the cassette audiobook because of the popularity of cassette players. ![]() Did people get to sample an audiobook before purchasing one back then? Probably not, but many of the books were pretty common classics so it was a nice opportunity to be able to hear a book even if people already knew it. Some of the first recordings were plays by William Shakespeare, The Constitution, and Gladys Hasty Carroll’s novel, As the Earth Turns. By 1955, audiobooks were more and more popular with The Listening Library offering many books, mostly to people with visual impairments. That’s a far cry from what we have now, but it was a great beginning. ![]() ![]() These books were recorded on vinyl records and had about 15 minutes worth of the book on each side. In 1932, The American Foundation for the Blind created audiobooks to increase the accessibility of books to blind people. They got their start as a way that people with visual impairments could still enjoy books. But where did they get their start? Actually, audiobooks have been around for almost 100 years. Where did the audiobook come from?Īudiobooks have grown in popularity to become a pretty commonplace form of reading and entertainment. This post has been updated in September 2021. So let’s see about getting a sample of your audiobook out to your listener readers! When you can sample an audiobook, you can hear the voice reading it, you’ll know if you connect, and then you can immerse yourself in a new story when you decide to purchase it because that sample made you want more. What about audiobooks? Sure, you can read that summary blurb to know what it’s about, but you don’t get that intimate contact with the book itself. You know how you love reading the back cover of books to see what they’re all about? And then opening it and getting a feel for the pages, the font, the vibe of the book? Then you know if the book is calling to you to be read and you can’t wait to begin. ![]() ![]() ![]() Last but not least, let’s talk about when you should and should not use this synthesizer. In that case, you can now enlighten them and let them know that this VST is, for the most part, a compressor too.Ī similar plugin would be the Sausage Fattener. Also see: FL Studio: 10 Best Stock Plugins Every Producer Must Use If this ever happens to you, you should just ask them if they ever compress their sounds. Obviously, they have no idea how this synthesizer actually works. I have noticed some people like to make fun of anyone who uses this plugin. Hopefully, you now have a better understanding of how it works. To use this tool is not necessary to download it, because it already comes integrated ( as a stock plugin) with the Fruity Loops DAW. It determines how much of the effect is being applied. The dry/wet knob is the same as the main knob in the Soundgoodizer. They also have different saturation settings. Another will make the mids stand out, and so on. One control will make the highs stand out. ![]() ![]() This is the main reason why the four presets sound so different. Since Maximus is a multiband compressor, it can compress different parts of the frequency spectrum differently at the same time. They all have slightly different settings in terms of attack, release, and so on. This can also help you learn how to set up a compressor yourself. If you want to know exactly what this plugin does, then you can load the various presets in Maximus and study the settings. Its four presets come from Maximus, which is FL Studio’s flagship multiband compressor. Then what happens when I apply distortion to a sound? When distortion is added to a sound, it can make it sound crisper and clearer. The last component is saturation, which is basically just distortion. So, the compression is what makes the sound appear huge. This will obviously make the sound much fuller. This means that the quieter parts of the sound which was previously inaudible can now be heard loud and clear. The difference between loud and quiet becomes less and less. When a compressor does this, it reduces the volume of the loudest elements, a makeup gain is then added to bring the overall volume back up.ĭepending on the amount of compression, the dynamic range is decreased accordingly.
