Anastasia contour kit cream fair12/20/2023 The difference between bronzer and contour is that bronzer warms up your face, while contour creates shadows. Our top picks for the best contour sticks of 2023: We updated this article in March 2023 to add new contour sticks the internet won't stop talking about, delete outdated oldies, and check in with new experts for the latest in contour sticks, just for you. ✔️ P.S., This is new, up-to-date info, bb. Before that, though, here’s a preview of my faves: I also consulted big-shot makeup artists Brandy Allen, Sean Harris, and Britty Whitefield for their favorite contour sticks, and also got their tips for getting that soft, natural-looking sculpt. Which is what brought me to compile this list to help you find the best contour stick for your specific needs, whether you want a neutral undertone, a matte finish, or a drugstore option. And after testing dozens of different formulas and consistencies, I’ve realized that the best contour stick is all about control, blendability, and shade range. Now, in 2023, when I want to lift my cheekbones and ~chisel~ my jawline, I reach for a creamy, soft contour stick. I like to think of it as the finishing touch.Gone are the days of 2016 when I covered my skin in full-coverage foundation, bright-ass under-eye concealer, and matte setting powder-all before sculpting my cheekbones with a chalky contour kit. If the sun was hitting it the brightest spot would be at the top of the cylinder ( the top of your cheekbone) and it gets progressively darker on the underside (where your contour would go).”ĭoes it matter the order of when you apply your highlight? Baribeau recommended, “I like to add highlighter last as it is usually the lightest and brightest color and could get lost under other darker complexion shades. Baribeau stated it’s important to start on the high points of the face, “You’re going to want to place highlighter on the high points of the face and think of the cheekbone as a cylinder. You’re going to want to map out where your highlighter and contour both go for your particular face shape, and MUA Caroline Baribeau gave us some expert application tips. I applied the highlighter to all of those areas on my face, minus the nose because that’s what I prefer, and blended it out with a foundation brush. There are a few different ways you can apply highlighter, and if you’re working with a matte finish like this product, you can apply it on the forehead, nose, cheekbones, browbone, and even chin. Some brands of highlighters I use regularly are Westman Atelier, RMS Beauty, and Armani Beauty. I have combination/oily skin that is sometimes sensitive, so I do well with matte finishes when my skin is extra oily. I am a daily makeup wearer, and I usually opt for a natural look with my preferred staple products such as foundation, concealer, bronzer, highlighter, cream blush, mascara, and a soft lip. From shimmering glistening creams and liquids to matte powders and creams, I love a good highlighter and never go a day without wearing one, I’m not kidding. ABH products are available nationwide and globally in over 25 countries. Potential Allergens: Dimethicone, Silica, Titanium DioxideĪbout The Brand: Founded by celebrity brow guru Anastasia Soare, ABH began with eyebrow products and has since launched an entire makeup category from foundations to lipsticks. Best For: Oily Skin, a matte highlighter or concealer you can use to highlight areas of the face such as the forehead, nose, cheeks, brow bone, and more.

Another dimension12/20/2023 The weight of galaxies, and the press of years, seem to sweep us towards atheism. They hint at reasons why God might create tiny humans in a gargantuan place but are a million miles away from fully explaining why. The problem with these rival explanations is that, as they stand, they are unsatisfying. Perhaps God values rocks and cosmic dust more highly than humans. Or, perhaps, God exists but isn’t as human-oriented as we thought. Perhaps the swathes of space strung with gossamer nebulae serve some aesthetic purpose, beauty wrought on an inhuman scale. Perhaps God exists but his motives for not creating humans sooner, or on a bigger scale, are unknowable. The fact that atheism is the simplest reply to the mismatch doesn’t mean that other explanations aren’t possible. The findings of modern science significantly reduce the probability that theism is true, because the universe is turning out to be very unlike the sort of universe which we would have expected, had theism been true. The spatial and temporal size of the universe gives us reason to be atheists. How can we explain it? Surely the simplest explanation is that God doesn’t exist. Temporally speaking, humans have been around for an eye-blink.Ĭlearly, there is a discrepancy between the kind of universe we would expect a human-oriented God to create, and the universe we live in. Earth is around four billion years old, and humans evolved around 200,000 years ago. To paraphrase Adams, the universe is also really, really old. Although we’re focusing on Christianity, these claims can be found in other monotheistic religions, too. These texts show that God is human-oriented: human beings are like God, and he values us highly. And are certainly real, realer than even Earth as they are the internal self. Genesis (1:27) states: “God created mankind in his own image.” Psalms (8:1-5) says: “O Lord … What is man that You take thought of him … Yet You have made him a little lower than God, And You crown him with glory and majesty!” And, of course, John (3:16) explains God gave humans his son out of love for us. Dreams are certainly another dimension, by definition, whether it is only in the mind, or your Spirit leaving Earth and travelling to another plane. Traditionally, the Christian God is held to be deeply concerned with human beings. To explain why, we need a little theology. Everitt focuses on how big the universe is, and argues this gives us reason to believe the God of classical Christianity doesn’t exist. Philosophers of religion such as Michael Martin and Nicholas Everitt have asked us to consider the kind of universe we would expect the Christian God to have created, and compare it with the universe we actually live in. Over the last few decades, a new way of arguing for atheism has emerged. So do the astronomical discoveries of the last few centuries have implications for religion? It’s a mind-scrunchingly big place, very different to the conception of the universe we had when the world’s major religions were founded. Scientists now know that the universe contains at least two trillion galaxies.

Tessellation in games12/19/2023 It's something we'll be keeping an eye on. Now, with Crysis 2, we again see evidence of DX11 mis-usage that happens to favor Team Green. HAWX 2's use of tessellation was more noteworthy, but was just a single title. Unigine's 'Extreme' tessellation settings could be written off as a synthetic benchmark's attempt to push one particular aspect of DX11. There's no reason why Crysis 2 should suffer from some of these issues, particularly since DX11 implementation was delayed to give the team time to get it right. The competing GeForces only suffered slowdowns of 17-21%." The guys at found that enabling tessellation dropped the frame rates on recent Radeons by 31-38%. Scott notes: "Unnecessary geometric detail slows down all GPUs, of course, but it just so happens to have a much larger effect on DX11-capable AMD Radeons than it does on DX11-capable Nvidia GeForces. Both HAWX 2 and Unigine's tessellation benchmark engage in this type of behavior. Not all of the DX11 optimizations in Crysis 2 are wasted, but this isn't the first time we've seen DX11 games or benchmarks create false performance dichotomies by ratcheting up tessellation levels in surfaces where insane polygon counts don't actually create a visible quality increase. Despite this, the game is still rendering (and tessellating) an invisible ocean underneath the player's feet. At present, there are multiple game areas where water is only visible in one small area or isn't visible at all. We recommend reading the entire article, but there's compelling evidence that certain surfaces in Crysis 2-like concrete blocks-are rendered in extremely high detail, even when there's no visual improvement to doing so. Using an AMD tool called GPU PerfStudio, it's possible to see which objects and surfaces have been tessellated and where the GPU is spending the bulk of its rendering time. A periodic tiling has a repeating pattern. The DX11 version could star in its own title, World of Concrete. A tessellation or tiling is the covering of a surface, often a plane, using one or more geometric shapes, called tiles, with no overlaps and no gaps.In mathematics, tessellation can be generalized to higher dimensions and a variety of geometries. You will notice that your mouse cursor becomes a cross-hair. Press the following keys at the same time. Normally a simple slab like this would consist of a handful of huge triangles. To use the crop tool: select the part of the image you wish to keep, then select the 'Cut' option from the file menu and open up a new window and select the 'Paste' option.

Z score excel12/19/2023 Generally, a Z-score between -1.96 and 1.96 indicates that a data point falls within 95% of the dataset, while a value outside this range represents an outlier.Ĭalculating Z-scores in Excel is a straightforward process using its built-in functions like AVERAGE and STDEV. The larger the absolute value of a Z-score, the more it deviates from the mean. – Negative Z-score: The data point is below the mean value. – Positive Z-score: The data point is above the mean value. – Z-score of 0: The data point is equal to the mean value. Once you have computed your Z-scores, you can interpret them as follows: Replace ‘Mean’ with an absolute reference to the cell containing your calculated mean, and ‘Standard Deviation’ with an absolute reference to the cell containing the standard deviation.ĭrag this formula down to apply it to other data points in your set. Replace ‘Data Point’ with a reference to a specific cell containing one of your data points (e.g., A1). `= (Data Point – Mean)/Standard Deviation` In an adjacent empty column to your dataset, use this formula: Now that you have both the mean and standard deviation values, you can compute Z-scores for each data point in your dataset. Close the parentheses and press Enter to get the standard deviation value. In another empty cell, type `=STDEV(` and then select your data range. Next, you will need to find the standard deviation for your dataset. The mean value will now be displayed in that cell. After selecting the range, close the parentheses and press Enter. In an empty cell, type `=AVERAGE(` and then select your data range. To calculate the mean (average) of your dataset, use the AVERAGE function. Enter your data points as individual values in a cell range. Step-by-Step Guide to Calculating Z-Score in Excelīefore calculating the Z-score, arrange your dataset in an Excel spreadsheet. In this article, we will learn how to compute Z-scores in Excel using its built-in functions. It is calculated by dividing the difference between the data point and the dataset’s mean by the standard deviation. The Z-score, also known as the standard score, is a measure that represents the deviation of a data point from the mean of a dataset.

Ohio state football news columbus dis12/19/2023 Those sad tales have also kept OSU from heading to Indianapolis and winning a Big Ten championship during that time. While Meyer never lost to That Team Up North in seven tries, Day has a 1-2 record with losses in two-straight. Now, that’s all fine and great, but of course, the stat that most fans aren’t happy about with Day is the record against Michigan. 9032 and slightly above Meyer for the all-time lead. A victory over Minnesota at home would put him at. Day currently sits just behind with a record of 55-6 (.9016) after the win last week over Michigan State. Currently, Meyer is the leader with a record of 83-9 (.9022). That means Day, just in his fifth full season, has more CFP appearances than Meyer did in the five seasons the playoff was in place during his time (didn’t begin until the 2014 season).Īnd now, if things hold true on Saturday, Day may have one other stat over Meyer, and that’s becoming the leader in best all-time winning percentage by an Ohio State football head coach. His predecessor, Urban Meyer, also had quite the tenure in Columbus, having won the first ever College Football Playoff national championship, two Big Ten titles, and garnering appearances in two College Football Playoffs. Ohio State relied on the efforts of Kyle McCord, who threw for 335 yards and three touchdowns while completing 77.4 of his passes. In fact, Day has made the College Football Playoff three out of four years, has one Big Ten championship, and a CFP National Championship game appearance. 2 days ago &0183 &32 They claimed a resounding 38-3 win over Michigan State at home. Ohio State head coach Ryan Day may not have a national title ring to wear yet, but he’s still had a pretty good run with the Buckeyes as the man calling the shots.

Createjs adobe animate12/19/2023 It will complain about a conflict, you can say to remove the existing one. The exporter can add this information because Animate does know the exact size of its objects, being far less limited than the HTML5. This is a property added by the Flash/Animate exporter, representing an object's dimensions at 100 scale with no rotation. When you double click on ToolkitforCreateJSv12.zxp file you should see the extensions manager. Now, nominalBounds is something that doesn't exist in the vanilla CreateJS library. A symbol is a graphic, a button, a movie clip, or text. You can create vector artwork or text directly in Animate import vector artwork, bitmaps, video, and sound and create symbols. I'd be proud to be a member of a thriving CreateJS community, instead of a founding dictator.

The library in an Animate document stores media assets that you create in the Animate authoring environment or import to use in the document.

Me, and our team would continue to contribute as possible - we would likely be a lot more active, without being weighed down by the sense that the "next big release" seems like too large of a mountain to climb given our fragmented availability. It probably goes without saying that I have never managed a transition like this, so I'd appreciate any thoughts or idea on how this might go. As a result, I reached out to Dan in December to get him thinking about how the community could become full participants in the library's future, and was thrilled to see him start this thread. To generate texture atlas of your animation, perform the following steps: In Animate, you can generate a texture atlas for a selected symbol from the Library or symbol instance on the stage. It has been super frustrating to be sit on a bunch of updates that have yet to make it into a released build. In the past year, we've been keeping super busy - good for gskinner, but bad for CreateJS. That means updates happen only when appropriate members of our team are sitting idle. Unfortunately, with the lack of any (direct or indirect) monetization model, and little to no support from Adobe, we've never found a way to justify it from a business perspective. I have absolutely loved building CreateJS, and really want it to have a long and healthy life. I am very interested in supporting this movement.
