We want to thank all of you for using Bitmap2Material over the past few years, we never thought this little handy tool would have such success and we hope you will be able to try out the new AI Image to Material very soon! You can see a few results from our April keynote here. The quality generated by this new tools is incredible and miles better than Bitmap2Material can ever hope to produce, so this is where our efforts will be focused from now on. This new feature, like Bitmap2Material, allows you to generate a full material from a single image but rather than using simple image processing, the AI can recognize shapes and objects in the image and generate a normal map and other channels from it. As you may be aware, Substance Alchemist, available through the Substance subscription, now includes a similar version of Bitmap2Material and will add a new AI powered Image to Material feature in its next update. Hi everyone, last week we reduced the price of Bitmap2Material from $99.99 to $49.99 and the Pro version from $149.99 to 74.99$.īitmap2Material, after 6 years of loyal service, is reaching its end of life and will not receive any further update. A fringe benefit of this function is that it clears the field even when the values have not been clipped. When gain staging a mix, this can happen regularly. Clicking on the displayed value clears the field. As we all know, the channel strip level indicator lights up when exceeding digital 0 dB. This one is a mouthful to say but handy when mixing. Clear Overload Flag in Audio Channel Display I have this function assigned to Control Shift M. It opens a Finder window, allowing you to choose a new location for the selected audio file. There is a helpful function under the Project Audio's AudioFile menu called Move File(s). This way, Logic will know where about the updated file location. It is best to move the files within the Project Audio window inside fo Logic. Logic will have difficulty locating the files the next time the project is re-opened. Moving them around manually in the Finder, outside of Logic, is generally a bad idea. Move File(s) out of projectįrom time to time, for various reasons, it becomes necessary to move the location of audio files used within your Logic Project. So, the same key command does double duty. ![]() I use Control Spacebar in this situation to start regular recording. One fringe benefit that suits my needs is that I occasionally use an unwired Apple keyboard at my drums when recording. I have this assigned to Control + Spacebar. While recording, if you decide you don't like what you are playing and want to try again, the Record Repeat command will, in one step, discard your current recording and jump back to the original record position, all without stopping the transport. We all know what Record does, but Record Repeat is a useful variation. Record/Record RepeatĪlthough available as two separate individual functions, I find the combined iteration works best for me. Look around the key command window, and I guarantee that some of the functions will inspire workflows you might not have thought of on your own. The point is, it is worthwhile exploring the plethora of unassigned key commands and figure out which you will benefit from integrating into your workflow. But they do seem to me to be “all purpose” in nature, and ones that most users will benefit from. I am not suggesting these are necessarily the most useful for you. Here, I'd like to share five originally unassigned key commands that I have assigned, improving my workflow immensely. ![]() The list will populate with functions currently unassigned. The first step is to filter the display in the Key Command window by pressing the Unused button. A film composer scoring to picture doing frame-accurate editing will have different needs than a rap producer comping together vocals from Take folders. And these will be different for different users. More esoteric ones are left unassigned, meant to be delved into by those who use the non-standard functions more regularly. ![]() Generally speaking, the more common functions are preassigned to key commands when you install Logic Pro. So, those are worthwhile committing to muscle memory. The most often used functions, in my experience, are transport functions. The general rule of thumb is that if you find yourself using the same function day in and day out, it is probably worthwhile to learn the key command. ![]() The answer, of course, is different for every user. So, which key commands are important enough to commit to memory? And which ones are safely ignored? Anyone capable of remembering them all would more likely be working on nuclear computations or astrophysics rather than recording music in a DAW. Of course, no user on the planet is going to use all the key commands. The most common ones come preassigned, while many less regularly used ones are left unassigned by default. Logic has hundreds, if not thousands, of key commands designed to make using Logic easier and more efficient. There’s a whopping range of 45 shades and Lancome have also improved on the pigments to create tones that are always flattering and enhancing on the skin. You can find new Teint Idole Ultra Wear online at Lancome here*, LookFantastic here* and Selfridges here*. It’s the kind of base that really is a base, coming into its own as the bronzer goes on, then the blusher… it’s the perfect starting canvas, flawless and smooth. ![]() The photos do a pretty good job of showing the finish too: it looks quite velvety-matt but there’s a real luminescence that isn’t glittery or shiny but just…expensive looking. And if I’d gone back over with another little light coating then I’d have obliterated them completely. Those are always a nightmare to disguise, when I’m filming, because they are red and indented and just a general pain in the arse to deal with. The single layer of foundation, applied very wispily with a small powder brush and not a flat-topped foundation brush, even part-conceals the glasses marks on my nose. One light coat is enough to knock back most blemishes, dark circles and areas of redness – take a look at the before and after photos: It really doesn’t need to be trowelled on and I think it looks best when it’s applied very lightly, from the centre of the face, and built up only if needed. I should add, because it’s pretty important, that I use very little product when I’m applying Teint Idole. At the very least it just looks incredibly unnatural, which is surely the opposite of the desired effect.) Looks great for the gram but honestly, in real life, some people look absolutely wild. (Though as a disclaimer, I do feel as though highlighter is one of the most overused and misused products in the entire makeup world. But Care & Glow does give an exemplary level of high-wattage luminosity – it’s the sort of glow level where I personally feel I don’t need a highlighter. Interestingly, I prefer the feeling of the high coverage Idole on my skin to the Care & Glow. White for the lighter coverage Care & Glow* and black for the higher coverage Idole*. It’s incredibly confusing and I wish that Care & Glow was just a totally different product line, in a way – it’s less coverage, more dew – but you can easily tell the two foundations apart by looking at the lids. ![]() This newly reformulated Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Wear is not to be confused with the new Teint Idole Ultra Wear Care & Glow. I personally welcome the additional plumptiousness because I still get the same coverage but now it feels even more comfortable and flexible on the skin. It’s the same marvellous foundation, plus a (very) slightly more hydrating feel. I really don’t think that many (if any) Teint Idole users will be disappointed with the new version. My new face side is juicier and more springy to the touch but with the same amount of coverage on the skin. I was sceptical beyond all polite reason about the hydrating skincare element of the relaunched formula but it’s there. The other side doesn’t feel dry, as such, it just feels…normal. ![]() And do you know what? You can actually feel the difference.Īfter a week of daily testing, with the old formula on one half of my face and the new formula on the other (how I suffer for my art) I can categorically tell you that the new side of my face feels continuously hydrated throughout the day. Lancome have taken their Teint Idole Ultra Wear foundation and made it just as comprehensive in coverage, just as cushiony to apply and just as long in wear-time, and they’ve somehow added a load of skincare ingredients into the mix along the way. What would Lancome tweak? What aspect of the original formula would us diehard fans sob over? How could Lancome improve upon perfection and a face base that had been around – successfully – for decades? And so: my nervousness over the reformulation. It was cushiony, it didn’t settle into lines, it moved with your skin…if ever there was a full coverage foundation for grown-ups then this was it. Contains press samples sent with no obligation to review and affiliate links, marked *Īnd the feel! Oh the feel of the thing. And it had a subtle glow, an expensive luminescence, yet the finish was velvety-matte. It looked flexible, comfortable, slightly juicy, but also gave that perfect, flawless, airbrushed sort of finish that completely removes redness, dark circles, areas of pigmentation. The original Teint Idole covered every blemish and imperfection – no concealer needed – but it somehow managed to not obliterate all of the life from your skin at the same time. ![]() And I say epic with not even a hint of irony because it was just that: very few high coverage, ultra longwear foundations came close to it in terms of the quality of finish, ease of application, shade range and longevity. I was slightly nervous about the fact that the epic Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Wear foundation had been reformulated. The political fall-out from France's worst urban violence since 2005 remains highly uncertain, leading to speculation about who stands to gain from the breakdown in law and order that has shocked millions of French people. "Above all and before anything else, we need to stop anarchic immigration," Le Pen continued.ĭemonstrators run as French police officers use tear gas in Paris on July 2, 2023, five days after a 17-year-old man was killed by police in Nanterre, a western suburb of Paris She and her father Jean-Marie have been forecasting France's demise and even civil war since the 1970s in doom-laden speeches focused on the presence of foreigners in France. "We predicted what is happening despite great adversity. "The reality is that you didn't want to hear any of the warnings," said the 54-year-old, whose 89 MPs form the biggest opposition party in parliament since elections last year. But unless this is done, more violent flare-ups are likely to occur in future.PARIS - In her first speech in parliament as France's riots ebbed this week, far-right leader Marine Le Pen accused the government of turning the country into a "hell" that she had foreseen. This would include working with law enforcement to change their mindset – not an easy task as the police have hardened their stance even more after the latest wave of riots. The first step would be an acknowledgement of the problem, followed by measures to address it. In addition, and more importantly, there has to be an end to institutionalised discrimination. For, as of today, the slogan on the protesters’ placards and lips is “The police kill” and “No justice, no peace”.įor all round healing, justice for Nahel must be delivered and seen to be delivered. Blaming video games and social networks for the “copycat violence” that engulfed France is to misread the fury of those involved. Measures to erase the mutual distrust that exists between these citizens and the police are needed. ![]() It is important to end systemic discrimination against and ethnic profiling of the Black and Arab immigrant communities. This has left the immigrant communities feeling marginalised and discriminated against. However, in contrast to the “melting pot” model, France’s model of cultural assimilation does not make room for the growing linguistic, cultural and religious diversity of its population. Over the years, with the influx of immigrants from its former colonies as well as other parts of the world, the nature of French society has changed, reflecting its colonial legacy. Unemployment in this segment is high, poverty is rampant and life prospects are bleak.ĭon't Miss | The complex history of French immigration - seen in a police killing and retaliatory street violence The people in question are third and fourth-generation immigrants, still living in the same ghetto-like, rundown, lower-income housing estates in the banlieue that housed their grandparents or great-grandparents in the 1950s and 60s. In the wake of last week’s violence, the spokesperson of the UN Human Rights Office, Ravina Shamdasani, called on France “to seriously address the deep issues of racism and racial discrimination in law enforcement” and “to ensure the use of force by police to address violent elements in demonstrations always respects the principles of legality, necessity, proportionality, non-discrimination, precaution and accountability.” However, in a parallel statement released the same day, French police unions declared they were “at war’ with “savage hordes of vermin”, lending credence to the concern expressed by the UN body.ĭistrust of the police runs deep in immigrant circles. ![]() While the violence, damage to property and looting cannot be condoned and the culprits must be severely punished by law, France needs to re-examine its methods of policing. The Nanterre shooting unleashed the pent-up frustration and deep-seated anger with, not just the police but the state in general, resulting in the arson and trashing of government and municipal buildings.Īlso Read | France riots: A look at cases of police violence in the country Young men and boys are reportedly being subjected to numerous and repeated, abusive identity checks. They live for the most part in grim, high-rise, suburban housing estates that are hotbeds of drug dealing and crime, where everyday life is a struggle. The unwarranted shooting of the teenager has touched a raw nerve among the north and west African immigrant population. Thousands of rioters, including many in their early teens, were arrested. The government responded by deploying 45,000 policemen across the country and authorising the use of armoured vehicles, drones, and helicopters. It quickly spread to other towns and cities, with France getting sucked into a whirlpool of rioting and anarchy. Nahel’s death triggered spontaneous violent protests in Nanterre where the incident occurred. The governor made the announcement in an address at the Albuquerque Economic Forum, where she also discussed New Mexico’s economic strength, including record exports and 4 percent overall growth over the past two years. ![]() “We have the tools to continue building long-lasting economic success – we just have to be bold enough to use them.” “Cutting gross receipts taxes for the first time in decades will put more money in the pockets of New Mexico families and businesses,” said Gov. This would be the first change in the statewide gross receipts tax rate since July of 2010, when the rate increased from 5 percent to its current 5.125 percent.Īccording to the Taxation and Revenue Department, New Mexico has not decreased its statewide gross receipts tax rate since 1981, making the governor’s proposed cut, when enacted, a first in 40 years.Īkin to a retail sales tax, gross receipts tax is levied on all persons engaged in business in New Mexico, which is why a statewide cut will positively impact New Mexico families and businesses across the state. The governor’s initiative will comprise a statewide 0.25 percent reduction in the gross receipts tax rate, lowering the statewide rate to 4.875 percent. Michelle Lujan Grisham on Wednesday, speaking at an economic development event, announced that she will pursue a statewide cut in gross receipts taxes, the first in decades, as part of signature legislative agenda items for the upcoming 2022 session, a measure that will save New Mexico families and businesses an estimated $145 million annually, or about $1.5 billion over 10 years.

Tenant advocates have accused investor-owned landlords of predatory pricing in the way they saturate certain housing markets, systematically increase rents tenants' rent and tack on fees to generate profits for their investors. And Starwood Property Trust, a major real-estate investment company, boasted of a "record" year in 2021, during which time its net income rose by one-third, to $492 million.

This adds your computer's IP into the Multi-cast channel that the NVR uses to communicate with local devices. Open one of the live cameras using the software.After installing the cameras, download and launch the NightOwl Protect client software on your computer and login.Those inclined can later use ONVIF Device Manager to force the cameras to use an external NTP. The hack below will allow the cameras to operate without the bundled NVR, however the cameras timestamps will revert to without the NVR being on the network. Do yourself a favor and disable the time-stamp overlay on the cameras.Don't bother trying to capture the 4-way handshake, you won't crack the PSK. They will operate on their own WIFI SSID. Get all your cameras working as intended by Night Owl.If you want to use these cameras without the paired NVR, you'll have some work to do to capture network traffic and to design a network that can live without the paired NVR. The disk is not readable without a private key that I couldn't find anywhere. The NVR itself is fully encrypted, don't bother taking it apart.The pre-paired NVR cameras are locked to the NVR. They are add-on cameras never that were not pre-paired with the NVR. There is a model of camera that is standalone that will natively work.Once the devices are configured, you never need the paired NVR again.You still initially need a NightOwl NVR to temporarily configure the devices.NightOwl customer support will not help you not use the paired-NVR.These cameras WILL work as standalone units, despite they were packaged with an Paired-NVR. ![]() Here is what I learned: Its a bundled deal, for better or worse… typically, worse. The below bypasses the lock on the walled-garden. Only the cameras that came bundled with the NVR are locked-down to the NVR. The same-series stand-alone cameras support native ONVIF. It should apply for any of the WNIP2 series bundled WIFI and NVR systems. Specific camera model this is about: WNIP-2LTA-BS. This method however also makes it possible to access the cameras as though they were a traditional Wireless RSTP ONVIF security camera and can be added to your custom NVR solution like BlueIris or even just VLC. You will ultimately loose access to the cameras on the mobile app and desktop software. Do note that this method effectively removes the cameras from any control of NightOwl. To prevent these really decent cameras from becoming e-waste. It does work well for live-video though- if thats all you need. The NVR hardware is just not powerful enough enoughto monitor and record 8 channels. It will take days to decrypt the entire drive and load onto a USB. The only real way to use the NVR to retrieve old data is to take the cameras offline, the NVR offline, and plugin a USB, login to the NVR via a TV and keyboard, and manually backup the recordings. Asking the NVR to play a video while also recording live video is basicaly impossible, as is queriying trigger events more than a few hours old. The NVR includes a 1TB spinning disk HDD which is fully encrypted. If you use the object-triggered recording and have an active area with frequent recordings, you will end up with so many videos that it becomes effectively impossble to look at previous captures. ![]() If you record 100%, the device doesn't has processing to keep up with recording and displaying realtime video. The bundled NVR has some cool features like AI and 2-way audio, but ultimately its just not powerful enough to keep up. ONVIF and WIFI Information NightOwl WNIP2 Camera Series BackgroundĪfter searching to find a way to use the WNIP2 Wi-Fi IP Cameras from NightOwl without having to use the packaged WNIP2 NVR (which, is the weakest part of the packaged solution NightOwl sells at discount box stores like Sams Club and Costco) I was looking at trashing the cameras and buying reputable standalone IP cameras that would support ONVIF and That is not possible with Houzz - it’s a locked-up tight system in which they only reveal the information they want to. We can report on all of the important performance indicators, and with cutting-edge analytics and form and call tracking, we know exactly where each lead is coming from. We can see and put to use all the data, and manipulate creative, targeting, budgets, and campaign structures to drive ever better return on investment. With more effective contractor marketing like paid Facebook and Instagram Ads, for instance, the advertiser can control all the levers. Therein lies the problem with Houzz advertising. Many contractors have raised concerns that since they can’t decipher through which features they are gaining leads, they can’t tell if it’s Pro+ that helped them out or if they could have landed the same business with the free membership. While the ability to track some data is helpful, Houzz’s analytics tool is not capable of tracking arguably the most important factor for capitalization on your leads - where the leads come from. It allowed businesses to track (to a certain degree) the progress of their profile by examining data like the number of ad impressions (or the number of times they were shown), the number of clicks your profile received, and how well your photos performed. Ī while back, Houzz introduced a new analytics tool called Pro+ Dashboard. Be creative with your tags, but keep them hyper-relevant so that you don't pay for unqualified, irrelevant attention. Marketing is about being in the right place, with the right message, at the right time. However, if someone searches for outdoor living design ideas and your photo of a master bath project pops up, the customer will just scroll right past it. Be careful though we know you want to just tag your photos in every single category to get more views. Pro Tip: To help your photos perform better, list your photos under as many relevant tags as possible - BUT not more than those that are truly relevant. This is something you can do with just the free membership. But more often than not, unique site visitors are simply looking for ideas and inspiration, in which case Pro+ members are no more visible than businesses with the free plan. ![]() For consumers who are far along in their research for an upcoming remodeling project, and as a result are bottom of funnel and looking on Houzz for home improvement professionals to content directly, this might not be such an issue. Promoted ads on Houzz do increase the numbers of profile clicks and profile impressions somewhat, but photo impressions appear to remain predominantly an organic pulse. With the mindset of treating Houzz as much like social media as possible, the most important focus is to boost the photo impressions, especially in this digital age. Photo-tagging to help the right clients find your images. For example, if your company designs and builds ingound swimming pools but also offers swimming pool maintenance services, you could list it under “Design and Remodeling” as well as “Home Services,” which widely expands your advertising reach. Your company’s visibility also grows with the option to list your business under multiple home improvement categories - currently you can only list it under one with the free version. Why put the effort into the platform if ideal prospects can’t find your business? Whether you’re a design/build firm, or a building product dealer or manufacturer, one of the benefits of Pro+ is that it increases your business’s visibility by reserving one of the top 10 search results on each page for Pro+ users within the relevant geographical radius. Visibility on a platform like Houzz is crucial. Here, we focus on Houzz Pro+ advertising geared for industry pros, shining some light on the benefits and challenges. Over the years, Houzz has looked to do this in many ways, including product sales, paid placements, advertising for contractors and designers, and most recently, as an all-in-one SaaS tool for home improvement professionals.
