You: As a shy and prude 22-year-old law student, you often find yourself wondering whether there is more to life than studying and spending your free time behind a book. One of his favourite past times is teasing you but you don't take his words too seriously as you know he means it in an innocent way. His extremely good looks and piercing gaze always provoked a strong sense of jealousy, even though you consider him to be a good friend and helpful colleague. ![]() Though the impression he leaves is not the only thing you envy about him. As a charismatic extrovert, he is the centre of every event and can be frequently seen with women you consider to be way out of your league. Hopefully, this trip will be an opportunity for you to change things for the better.Īdam: Adam is your colleague and friend but he is also the complete opposite of you. ![]() But despite your attempts, you always ended up getting friendzoned. You have known her since your first day on the job, though you secretly wish your platonic relationship would develop into something bigger.

Containing IFC and COBie parameters, with a wide range of content from UK Manufacturers – this is a great site to find content. Similar to the NBS, BIMstore creates all FREE Revit Families according to the ‘BIM Store Bible’ which is a best practice family creation guide. This standardizes things like IFC and COBie parameters, meaning they contain a lot of data which is useful for interoperability.Īnother great site from the UK. ![]() You can find a whole range of different families, both manufacturer specific and generic. The UK has been leading the way in BIM adoption and standards, and therefore all families available have been created to the NBS BIM Object Standard. In my opinion, this is one of the best sites to find FREE Revit Families. A helpful feature is you can search by Country, so you can find families that are relevant to your location/market. Well worth signing up for!Īnother BIM Library with a huge range, you can find manufacturer specific content, as well as User created generic content. ![]() On top of that is MyBIMsmith which features free, private cloud storage for any of these families so you can save your favorite families or configurations and come back to download them later. They also have a cool tool called BIMsmith Forge, which helps you create flooring, wall, ceiling, and roof assemblies layer-by-layer that can then be downloaded as a system (real cool!). There is a good mix of products, but generally centered around Architectural families (lots of furniture, lighting, appliances etc.) which makes sense as the site and content is created by former architects. Please check them out for yourself and let me know which ones you found the best.īIMsmith is a great online resource with lots of Free Revit families to download. Although they are numbered from 1 to 22, this is not a ‘rank’ list. In this blog post, I have compiled a list of popular BIM and Revit online libraries offering FREE content for you to download. It can be hard to tell how a Family has been made, and how it will behave when brought into your model. A lot of Free Revit Families are Hit and miss, some are good, some are bad, and some are just plain crap! So beware of the families you download, you may end up spending significant time getting them up to your own standards. A lot of the content available is manufacturer specific, meaning you can integrate ‘real-life’ products into your projects at an earlier stage, saving you modelling time and therefore $money$.īut there is a catch – Not all content is created equal. They can help you save time and dramatically increase your model options by downloading ready made content. ![]() This is where online libraries can be so valuable. Most of us work to tight deadlines and don’t have the required free hours in the day to build up our own Revit library. But creating families from scratch requires: a) Family creation knowledge We all need good content to populate our models, and if they are Free then even better! Sure the out-the-box Revit families do a great job, and of course we can always make our own. Looking to download FREE Revit Families? Start here: Please let me know if any links no longer work and I will update □ ![]() This list has been compiled for anyone looking to download FREE Revit Families. ![]() The last plane type, the alpha plane, is used to define a plane that has a diffuse material and an associated alpha channel to define areas of transparency. Each is assigned a default material which can be edited using the material editor to achieve the look that you are after, including the use of powerful procedural materials. The infinite planes are Water planes, ground planes and cloud planes. There are three types of infinite planes and one alpha plane. Planes in Vue are like primitives but are unbounded in that that extend to infinity. You can however import numerous file types to import you own geometry built in other modeling apps. There is no vertices manipulation or advanced deformers etc, but really that is not the goal of Vue in the first place. Where Vue falls short is through any geometry manipulation past what I have mentioned above. Primitives can also be combined through the use of built-in in boolean operations that include union, difference and intersection. Manipulation of scale, size and position can be done either numerically or through the use of handles and the manipulation icon that appear next to the object when it is selected. You simply choose the primitive you want, and it drops into your scene. Like most other 3D apps, primitives in Vue are not much different. Vue d'Esprit groups its objects into 11 categories: Primitives, Infinite planes, alpha planes, terrain, vegetation, polygon meshes, rocks, planets, lights, groups and finally the camera. Once you have established an atmosphere for your scene, the next step involves creating objects in your environment. ![]() Keep in mind that everything in Vue can be edited manually with the atmosphere editor to suit your specific aesthetic requirements, so even if you do choose a preset, it can be modified to suit your needs.ĭialog for choosing a new atmosphere preset There are literally dozens of presets to select for starting points in your scene. By simply pressing "new" in the file menu, a graphical popup appears and prompts you to choose a predefined environment or load one from disk. The first step in creating a Vue Environment is to select an atmosphere. For the most part I found the interface easy to navigate, but did find that its deviation from standard windows menu standards a bit odd for the first little while.Īs far as sticking to standard 3D app terminology and functionality, I found Vue d'Esprit quite easy to pick up and navigate without having to search the documentation. ![]() One thing the interface is not, is a standard windows interface, but rather one with a very organic, soft and bubble feel that you would usually equate with the MAC environment. The interface in Vue d'Esprit is also very unique and pleasing to look at and work with. Personally I have always preferred hardcopy manuals, so I didn't mind too much. The online help on the other hand is pretty weak and is really only good for quick reference if you have forgotten something. Whether you want to animate clouds or create a forest, there is a short and very concise quick step tutorial to get you up and running. A cookbook style tutorial section steps you through almost every possible scenario that you will run into in Vue d'Esprit. The last section of the guide was also a real treat. Each section is filled with numerous graphics to help explain concepts and show interface functionality. From there they move onto describe the interface in detail and then each major feature set. The beginning of the guide runs you through a simple 30 minute tutorial that introduces you to the basic concepts and features that are found in the program. Although its unique size sets it apart from most user guides, measuring 8" wide by 6" high, I found the layout very easy to follow and easy on the eyes. Considering the very inexpensive cost of this application, I was amazed at the features as well as the quality and speed that could be attained with just a few mouse clicks.įirst off I would like to say that this is probably one of the best written and well laid out user manuals that I have come across in a very long while. With release 4 comes a completely redesigned interface, much improved OpenGL views, powerful terrain modeling tools, volumetrics, and drastically improved rendering speeds to name just a few. ![]() By Jeff Mottle ( you have ever needed to create realistic scenery or environments for your architectural scenes, then the new release of Vue d'Esprit is worth a look. ![]() I don’t live in STL or the region, so I have specific interests: this case Cardinals, Blues, St Louis City FC … let me pay a fair price for these. (And is it a month or one time cost? I get confused.) I get digital editions of WaPost and NYT for much less. I pay for great journalism, local and national, and I want to support the hometown paper and its writers (particularly the great Derrick Goold) … but $26/month is insane. How many people have just walked away, taking their eyeballs with them? They won’t get $26/month from me for just one interest, and I wonder: Where do they make the most money? Digital subscriptions or advertising? They, obviously, want both. Update: Every time I stop by the app to see if it’s any better, if I can read even one story, I am reminded how horrible it is - and I think the paper loses another opportunity for me to add to their readership numbers, to improve their metrics, to see the advertising, and to support their writers by participating. As much as I whine about STL Today, it is the first thing I check, after my emails, in the morning. Missouri is supposed to to have a great J school, get some interns who want to bolster their resume. They are stories and you are supposed to be storytellers.

Get a new home feature photographer/writer if you are going to do these type of stories. Taking pictures of garden trolls or a family heirloom does not express the architectural merit of a house.

The best way to get back to a previous version of iOS If the version of iOS you wish to reinstall doesn’t have this signature then you will not be able to install it on your iPhone or iPad. To downgrade iOS means that your device would be less secure, and easier for hackers to get into.” At an Apple shareholder meeting back in 2016, the company’s senior vice president of software engineering, Craig Federighi, was reported as saying that Apple did “not provide a way to downgrade largely because each iOS update improves the security of your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. Whereas in the past Apple would leave the signature valid on previous versions of iOS for a short time, in recent years the signature has been removed within days of, and sometimes almost simultaneously with, the release of the newer version. This is for security reasons, so that you won’t accidentally install bogus software that claims to be iOS and then find yourself in a world of pain as all your data is stolen. When software is made available by Apple the company includes a signature that confirms its authenticity. Why can’t I downgrade to an older version of iOS?Īs we said above, there is a very small window in which you can downgrade. We cover the whole process in our how to remove an iOS beta from your iPhone guide. You then need to set up your iPhone as a new device, so beware of this if you don’t want to run the risk of losing data.When we did this the Finder wrongly identified the version, but it was the one we wanted. The phone will be wiped and the old version of iOS installed on the iPhone.Click to confirm this and wait while your iPhone is restored. A message will appear saying which version of iOS you will install – this should be the one you have selected.You should be able to select the version of iOS you wish to install on the iPhone from your downloads folder.Hold down the Option/Alt key and click on Restore iPhone.Tap Find My > Find My iPhone and switch the slider to off. Go to Settings and click on your ID information. You will need to turn off Find My on your device.(Note it took us ages to download iOS 16.6.1 from this site, we assume because lots of other people were also downloading it). The software should start downloading to your Downloads folder. It needs to still be signed by Apple, which these days is a very narrow window indeed. Go to and download the correct version of the iOS you want that matches your iPhone model. ![]() While ND’s football membership in the ACC is temporary, its ability to qualify for the ACC spot in the Orange Bowl (if it doesn’t qualify for the B1G/SEC/ND spot) should be permanent, after the debacle of last year, in which Clemson was the only truly good ACC football team, yet ND didn’t qualify for the Orange Bowl despite beating, having a better record, and higher ranking than Virginia because they weren’t technically in ACC football.Ĭlemson’s weak schedule last year is also why OSU losing to them in the playoff was a huge sore point with me.

Answer A: The vestibulocochlear nerve (auditory vestibular nerve), known as the eighth cranial nerve, transmits sound and equilibrium (balance) information from the inner ear to the brain. This means that the vagus nerve is the primary parasympathetic controller of the heart, lungs, pancreas, stomach, and bowel. The vagus nerve provides parasympathetic fibers to all of the body’s vital organs from the neck all the way to the transverse colon. These muscles are important for elevation of the soft palate during swallowing as well as the initiation of esophageal peristalsis. The vagus nerve also has motor components that control movement of the cricothyroid muscle, levator veli palatini, palatoglossus, palatopharyngeus muscle, and the superior/middle/inferior pharyngeal constrictors. The vagus nerve (CN X) is an extremely important cranial nerve that serves as the primary parasympathetic innervation to most of the body as well as supplying important motor innervation to the soft palate.

The facial artery would be to anterior to be significantly affected during surgery to the temporomandibular joint. The facial artery enters the face by passing anterior to the body of the mandible before ascending along the side of the nose towards the eye. Answer E: The facial artery is also a branch of the external carotid artery and is responsible for supplying blood the structures of the superficial face, including the muscles of facial expression. The middle meningeal artery is clinically relevant because it is the primary artery injured in an epidural hematoma, leading to blood accumulation between the meninges and the skull. The middle meningeal artery courses superficially along the sphenoid and temporal bones of the skull in order to supply blood to the meninges. Answer D: The middle meningeal artery is a branch of the maxillary artery and is one of the terminal branches of the external carotid artery. The external carotid artery is important for supplying blood to many structures of the face including the tongue (via the lingual artery) as well as the muscles of the face via the facial artery. The external carotid artery courses from the upper border of the thyroid cartilage where it moves anteriorly to course upward toward the head and passes behind the neck of the mandible before dividing into the superficial temporal and maxillary arteries. Answer B: The external carotid artery is a major artery of the head and neck that arises from the common carotid artery after it bifurcates to form the internal and external carotid arteries. The artery courses laterally along the neck and would be much deeper than the maxillary artery in comparison to the temporomandibular joint. The internal carotid artery is the principal source of blood to the brain, while the external carotid artery supplies portions of the face, scalp, skull, and meninges. Answer A: The internal carotid artery is one of the most important arteries of the body and arises from the bifurcation of the common carotid artery into the internal and external carotid arteries. ![]() The maxillary artery has numerous branches, including the middle meningeal artery, the deep auricular artery, buccal artery, and masseteric artery. The artery arises behind the neck of the mandible and courses medially to the neck of the mandibular condyle before passing into the pterygopalatine fossa.

![]() Between film 1 and 2, also a lot of time went by. The director is busy anyway right now with the "Mad Max" sequel, but who knows. So far, there is no news yet about a third "Happy Feet" installment and I do not really think it is necessary unless they somehow manage to come up with something a lot better than they achieved here. And Bill's and Will's storyline adds absolutely nothing to this sequel here. It was like they were in their own movie, even more extreme than with Scrat and the "Ice Age" films. I guess they only wanted to advertise the film with these two superstars as their characters basically had nothing to do at all with Mumble and the gang. I wonder what they were thinking including the duo as krill. Another oddity in here is the inclusion of Brad Pitt and Matt Damon as voice actors. The film gets a bit better after the 30-minute-mark, but that does not mean that it becomes a quality movie, just that it really really sucked early on. Apart from that, this scene made it obvious that the walrus would return the favor at some point later in the movie and now this film was not only void of any heart, but also fairly predictable. Sadly, the execution really took out all the emotion for some reason. ![]() One of the film's intended most emotional moments was when the walrus is trapped and Mumble goes to rescue him, so he can reunite with his children. It does not get any further apart than "Mad Max" and "Happy Feet". What a strange collection of movies he worked on. The core filmmaker was also the one who directed the first "Happy Feet" movie and he is otherwise mostly known for directing "Mad Max" (the old and the new). It is a bit of a joke this film had 3 directors and 6 writers and this is what they came up with. ![]() This movie was shout completely at the Annie Award (animation Oscar) that year and that says it all. As an animal choir the way it started I liked it, but then she started singing and all the magic was gone. She even sort-of destroyed the final scene with her rendition of Queen's "Under Pressure". All she does is sing and her loud scratchy voice did not bring any emotion that this film was so badly in need of. In terms of voice acting, she adds nothing to this movie, simply because she never does it. Still I heavily object to the casting of Pink here. Talking about the music, it was really really bad early on, but got a bit better as the film went wrong. Not even the small fluffy penguins were a delight anymore as they were written so annoyingly with stupid rap songs and without the slightest ounce of obedience to their elders. However, this turned out a disappointment. They tried to do the same as in the first film (that won the Best Animated Feature Oscar) in some areas, for example they included once again a mix of live action and animation with the animation being the far dominant part. This sequel, which came out five years after the first, lacks completely in that area. I liked the first film mostly for the charm and emotional story lines, for example the one about Mumble and his dad. I laughed, cried and felt such empathy for these penguins because this movie has a lot of soul and heart.Įven if there is tons of that like in this film here. Also, there are significant themes and messages about community, teamwork, bravery, overcoming obstacles and environmentalism. The story is in-depth, layered, complex and much more meaningful than the first Happy Feet. In my opinion, it has the best production values and cinematography of any animated film of 2011, I have watched lately. I loved this movie and I found it far superior to Rango, Gnomeo & Juliet and Cars 2. Also, I think people are being too hypercritical because the first Happy Feet won the Oscar. I am actually shocked while reading some of the scathing reviews. Some critics refused to look deeper because this is not their usual type of child animation film. I think people are being too harsh on this movie. However I have been astonished when I have seen rude comments on Happy Feet 2. This film aims to tell to children not to lie and how important the friendship is. The characters felt more developed and they went through a more interesting journey. First of all I want to say this, I really like animation films and I actually liked this more than the first Happy Feet. ![]() Once installed, it will be made available exactly the same wayĪs other applications (menus, desktop overview, or any specificĪpplication launch process used by your desktop).
