![]() ![]() ![]() So here comes the phenomena of diffraction which is used to create holograms. So it nearly impossible to click a photo of light but wait, we all have seen holograms and as we have discussed earlier holograms are the steady 3-D photographs of light. In this case, we are talking about light which travels at the speed of 299 792 458 m/s. You all know whenever you are trying to click a photo with your smartphones, if you are in motion during photoshoot then the image will be blurred because the camera is not able to click steady photo when you are moving. Well, holograms are basically steady photographs of light, but light travels at very high speed and therefore it’s nearly impossible to click a steady photograph of light in a hologram. So now you may be wondering, how diffraction is related to the projection of holograms ? So let’s understand the relation between diffraction and holograms. Hologram projection is also an example of diffraction and you may have seen one. So, what comes inside your mind when you hear the word ” hologram”, it’s sound cool to me and this phenomena is pretty cool. P.s:- Microscopic pits means where data on a compact disc is stored in binary format (1 or 0) inside a CD. This forms a diffraction grating on the CD mirror surface. These pits are placed in a row of the same width and at equal distance. Recorded data on CD is stored in microscopic pits of different lengths which carries information in the CD. Compact Disc (CD) also resembles the same kind of colours when viewed from different angles. Well, rainbow is formed because water droplets in the atmosphere separate white light into different colours of the rainbow. So almost all of you have seen a rainbow formation on rainy days. Many a time you may have seen diffraction in your life but the problem is we may not notice these little things which are created due to some of the most interesting phenomena of science and diffraction is one of them. Examples and applications of diffraction: Now you know about diffraction and let’s know some of the real-life examples and application of diffraction. All kind of waves such as water waves, gravitational waves and electromagnetic waves all waves in spectrum such as radio waves, x-ray, gamma rays etc. This effect also occurs when light waves travel through a medium of different refractive index. Diffraction is tend to be used when there are many sources of wave and interference is used when only a few wave sources are considered. ![]() Now you may have heard about interference and it’s kinda same like diffraction but wait don’t get confused between both of them.ĭiffraction and interference are closely related but they both don’t have an exact meaning. According to this principle, every point on a wave behaves like a source. Phenomena of diffraction is described from the Huygens-Fresnel principle. ![]()

![]() Loved FSU so much, stayed for a Masters degree in GIS. Where did you go to uni and what did you study there? At Florida State University (go ‘Noles!) I studied Environmental Science and Education for my undergraduate degrees. ![]() The customer success role can fluctuate from day to day as you work with all departments in CARTO and your client's company! One day might be focused on marketing efforts, inviting clients to events or webinars, and other days might be more focused on understanding the goals of the project a client is looking to accomplish through CARTO and making sure they have the knowledge to reach them. What does your day-to-day look like? A day in the life of a CSM starts with some caffeine and a comfy workspace! After cracking open the laptop for the day, a CSM will likely attend, host - and organize - meetings, training, webinars, blogs, and everything in between! ![]() Kira Gawlak, Enterprise Customer Success Manager What advice would you give to someone aspiring to a career like yours? I'd say please reach out and connect with myself and other Solutions Engineers on LinkedIn! Would be delighted to chat and brainstorm ideas based on your life and career goals. Many tech roles offer a mix of these things and in my opinion was a great career step. What made you want to work in tech? For me it was a combination of things when I joined the tech industry: (a) I enjoy working with data, (b) I wanted a company to grow and learn new skills, (c) I wanted exposure to many different verticals on the market, and (d) I love working remotely and having autonomy where I live. Where did you go to uni and what did you study there? University of Colorado at Boulder in the US - Studied Geography and Ecology with a dash of Anthropology. ![]() Everyday I sync with teams internally, build demos, visual assets, and attend client-facing meetings to better discover and understand issues companies are facing and how we at CARTO can help. I am often the bridge between potential customer needs and other technical teams across CARTO including IT, Product, Data Engineering, and Support. What does your day-to-day look like? As an SE, I'm the first technical point of contact with potential customers and my main goal is to understand prospects' pain-points, challenges, and business needs. What advice would you give to someone aspiring to a career like yours? Besides being very good at statistics and coding, be ready to quickly learn new tools and methods, as well as to be able to explain in a clear way your work to other specialists and non-specialists. And even more so if you work for a tech company, where you are at the forefront of innovation and will be able to work in a highly data-driven environment. Why should someone want to work in STEM or for a tech company? If you have a curious mind and enjoy solving difficult problems then a career in STEM is a great choice. What is a common misconception about a STEM career? That you need somehow to be gifted to succeed in a STEM career, while enjoying solving difficult problems and having a creative attitude are what you really need (plus of course a lot of hard work!). ![]() Where did you go to uni and what did you study there? I did my BSc and MSc in Physics at the University of Milan, and then went to do a PhD in Applied Statistics at the University of Southampton Beside the technical work, my work also involves mentoring junior colleagues and engaging with stakeholders, from clients to product-owners. What does your day-to-day look like? My day-to-day is usually spent (surprise, surprise) working with (spatial) data, from data-wrangling to developing modeling frameworks, and lately developing data science tools. ![]() ![]() ![]() back, until coolant temperature reaches normal operating temperature.

![]() ![]() Our friends ordered spinach dip, and struggled through half of it after asking for jalapenos to get some flavor. Knowing I can get them for half that price just down the beach a-ways, I opted out of their succulent goodness. I did ask the price on their raw oysters, $18.99 a dozen. ![]() I also ordered "The Back Porch Baked Oysters," they were delicious, but at $15.99 for 6, ridiculously priced. She stated that her drink tasted like a kid's kool-aid, not bad, just not what one would expect for a $8 drink. Ice tea and some fancy named mixed drink for our couple friends. I had a Paradise Ale (a "local" brew, not sure who bottles it), not bad, not cheap (if it's more than $2, to me, that's not cheap). He came back pretty quickly and got our drink and appetizer orders. A server stopped by to state he'd be with us in a minute, pleasantly, although the guy seemed a bit erratic in his mannerisms, not nervous, just scattered. I took the latter and she stated 10-15 minutes, which surprised me since there were 30-40 people waiting around outside to be seated. I asked "How long for a party of 4?" She rattled off the options, inside, outside, or first available. They must train them to be rude half-wits during employee orientation. There were three girls behind the counter, one eventually looked up at me with an almost bothered facial expression of "what do you want?" No smile, no "Hello, welcome to our wonderful eating establishment," not even a "Can I help you?" Different girls, but no change from a year and a half ago. ![]() I walked up to the hostess desk and waited for someone to acknowledge me. Otherwise I wouldn't have stepped foot in the place. We visited last night with some friends who were from out of town and staying in Fort Walton Beach, Pier Park was a good midway point to meet, and The Back Porch was where they wanted to eat. Read my last review of The Back Porch if you're wondering what the title is about. ![]() ![]() ![]() Two of the bridge officers do however feature in the Dominion faction introductory missions “Hunt” and “Ceremony”. The initial cadre of Dominion bridge officers are awarded on character creation as they do not go through a tutorial. Some of the others have other unique qualities to them, noted on their pages. All of the Uncommon tutorial bridge officers are unique in that they have four Standard-tier traits, which is an impossible loadout on standard bridge officers you can obtain throughout the game. These bridge officers are acquired through completion of each faction's tutorial and early storyline missions. Typical Very Rare bridge officers, Fleet Embassy Rare Typical Uncommon bridge officers, Common and Uncommon Gorn officers The Very Rare Romulan Bridge Officers available from the Fleet Embassy have 4 Superior traits, as does the Borg Science Bridge Officer Candidate.īelow is an exhaustive table of special bridge officers by trait allotment:.The corresponding officers from other factions- Tovan Khev, Tarsi, Eko'Ixtan and Rem'Taral-do not share this characteristic. The Very Rare tutorial officers Elisa Flores, K'Gan and Evelyn Savea have 1 Standard and 3 Superior traits, also putting them above the usual Very Rare officers.The Very Rare Jem'Hadar Vanguard Bridge Officers are similar to the above Jem'Hadar officers, but their Supeior Jem'Hadar Vitality trait is actually a combination of Superior Stubborn and Superior Peak Health, meaning they functionally have 3 Standard and 2 Superior traits, putting them above the usual Very Rare boffs.The Klingon (TNG) Female Engineering Bridge Officer, only available for Klingon recruits, is the same. The Very Rare Photonic Engineering Officer Candidates, available as a Delta Recruitment reward, has 1 Basic, 1 Standard and 2 Superior traits.The Rare officers Metama'Kagal and Virak'Agar, two of the Dominion tutorial boffs, have 3 Standard and 1 Superior traits, putting them a hair above the usual Rare boffs. ![]() The Rare officer D'Vex, one of the Romulan Republic tutorial boffs, has 2 Basic, 1 Standard and 1 Superior traits, putting him between most Uncommon and Rare boffs.The Very Rare Liberated Borg Romulan Science Officer shares this characteristic as well. The officers from the previous Starfleet and KDF tutorials had this same characteristic. Examples include Zarva, Ch'gren, Veril, Ixso'Rax, Skavrin and Tamav. Uncommon tutorial officers have 4 Standard traits, putting them a hair above the usual Uncommon boffs.However, some special bridge officers have loadouts that do not fit the above molds: Very Rare officers have 2 Standard and 2 Superior traits.Rare officers have 1 Basic, 2 Standard and 1 Superior traits.Uncommon officers have 1 Basic and 3 Standard traits.Common officers have 2 Basic and 2 Standard traits.Normally, bridge officers have the following: Similarly, the Reman Tactical/Intelligence Officer Candidate, one of the Delta Rising Bridge Officers available for Romulan Republic captains on PC, has the Superior Romulan Operative trait, normally reserved for Romulan-species bridge officers.Īnother common difference with their traits is how many they possess at each quality. For example, Andorian bridge officers are normally required to have both Acute Senses and Cold Dwelling, but Tarsi, an Andorian officer obtained during the TOS Starfleet tutorial, lacks Cold Dwelling. Most special bridge officers have something unusual about their trait loadout. Many special bridge officers are of a species not normally obtainable as a bridge officer, such as the Ferasan bridge officers available from the Zen Store for Klingon-aligned captains, or the Overlooker Hierarchy Science/Intelligence Officer Candidate, or the Commendation bridge officers which are species normally only available for the opposing faction. In 2018 it was added to Julian Bashir (Hologram).While standard bridge officers you can purchase for Energy credits or Dilithium follow standard rules for available speecies and their corresponding bridge officer traits, special bridge officers are obtained in a variety of ways and generally have something unusual about their trait loadout.In 2012 it was added to D'Vex for Romulan players.This trait was exclusive to the handful of veteran bridge officers that were rewarded during the currency conversion.It instead provides Starship Defensive Maneuvering, which improves you Defense value. It does not provide Starship Maneuvers, which would improve maneuverability. +6 Starship Weapon style="vertical-align: The game's description of this trait is partially incorrect. Provides a bonus to Starship Maneuvers, Starship Targeting Systems, Starship Weapon Specialization, and Starship Weapon Amplification, which improves maneuverability, chance to hit, and weapon critical hits. This trait is only available for bridge officers. Space Warfare Specialist is a bridge officer space trait. ![]() ![]() ![]()
![]() Certain work training or volunteer programs also fulfilled the requirements.Ĭome 2009, deep into the recession, there were so few jobs that the federal government allowed states with high unemployment to ask to waive those work requirements.īut starting this year, with Florida’s economy doing better overall, the state couldn’t ask for another waiver. Before then, if you were an adult without kids and were able-bodied you had to work at least 80 hours per month in order to get food stamps. In order to understand why she got cut off, you have to go back to 2009. “Now, I’m having to go out here and ask people for help just to eat, and that’s embarrassing as hell,” she says. In March, Perry stopped getting food stamps. WLRN Homeless people line up for food in downtown Miami. “Because of us being homeless, we don’t have no way to cook so you get sandwiches, lunch meats, peanut butter and jelly - stuff like that that can last,” says Perry. They’d use the money at Publix buying the tightly regulated allowable items, which excludes hot foods. “These people have gone all day with nothing, not a sandwich or nothing,” says Royal.įor years, Royal and Perry each got $194 in food stamps per month, the highest amount allowed under the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP. People immediately form lines when the trucks of food pull up. Perry, Royal and many others out on the street are among the 350,000 people who lost their food stamps this year because of new state rules that adults without children who can work must work in order to get the monthly assistance.

Rather than just being a free PDF reader, PDF-XChange Editor is also a free PDF editing program for Windows. Overall, we found the app to be a remarkably powerful free PDF reader that's packed with handy features you'll use time after time, all presented in a clear, adaptable interface. The menu is pretty easy to navigate since there aren’t all that many options available in Nitro Reader. The software has a ribbon-style menu that will be familiar to Microsoft Office users. Helpfully, the software also allows you to convert between PDF and other document formats. ![]() Comments are also supported, and they appear like sticky notes that are easy to spot as you read through a document. You can annotate documents with underlining and strikethroughs in addition to highlighting. While you can’t fill and sign PDFs with Nitro Reader, the software does a nice job of enabling collaboration. ![]() Touchscreen mode is especially nice for reading e-books, since you can flick the pages rather than scroll or click on a button. What makes this tool different is that it has a touchscreen mode that’s perfect if you’re working on a tablet. The Nitro PDF Reader is another powerful free PDF reader in the vein of Foxit Reader and Adobe Acrobat DC. If you frequently need to print PDFs, Slim PDF is one of the fastest and most simple options available. It does a good job at this, though, leaving out the toolbars that can distract you from what you’re reading. On the other hand, if your needs are similarly simple, the free PDF reader might just be the solution for you.Īs a result, Slim PDF is truly just a PDF reader. While there is a menu option to convert a PDF to a Word document, doing this requires another software download. There are no tools for signing, filling, commenting, or highlighting, let alone multiple reading modes. You can search and rotate documents, but that’s about it. In our review, we called it "a sleek, minimalist PDF reader that only takes up a couple of megabytes on your hard drive." The downside to this small size is that Slim PDF is pretty basic. Plus, that means that it’s able to open and load your documents faster than most of its competitors. The software download is really small, so is the perfect choice if you’re limited by hard drive space. Slim PDF is the best free PDF reader if you’re looking for something incredibly lightweight. Note that with the software's latest update, Foxit seems to have removed its PDF virtual printer driver, meaning you can no longer use the software to create PDFs. There’s a Safe Reading mode that allows you to automatically disable Javascript embedded in downloaded PDFs. You can also merge or split PDFs by downloading free add-ons for the software.Īnother advantage to Foxit PDF Reader is that it offers security. Tools for editing, signing, highlighting, and commenting are fairly easy to access. That’s thanks to the fact that it uses the same ribbon-style menu as Microsoft Office. The software can be a little intimidating at first, but it’s relatively straightforward to navigate. The only thing that’s lacking in the free version is support for optical character recognition in scanned documents. Or, you can scan a document or image and turn it into a PDF using Foxit Reader. Integration with Microsoft Office allows you to easily turn documents you’re working on into PDFs. Read our full Adobe Acrobat Reader DC reviewįoxit PDF Reader is more than just a free PDF reader – you can also create PDFs from scratch using this software. If you can overlook this, it’s a great tool, but there are less obtrusive ones out there. Sadly, the adware side of things is pretty much everywhere: you get ‘try now’ buttons, you’re offered to use powerful tools but later are asked to pony up some cash in order to actually use them, there’s even a ‘7-day trial’ button. In our review, we reckoned that “Adobe Acrobat Reader DC is one of the best free PDF readers for anyone looking to view documents and manipulate them in some way.” It’s simple, easy to use, and comes with all the basic features you need to interact with PDF files. If it wasn’t for the latter, Acrobat Reader would be a decent addition to your software library. The second is to convince you to upgrade to the paid version of the software (which, you’ve guessed it, has many more features, including the ability to create and edit PDF files). The top PDF viewer is designed with two purposes in mind: the first is to enable you to read and interact with PDF files (including adding annotations and even signing a document). ![]() |
