Turn on ringer7/26/2023 ![]() ![]() Police said colleagues in Turkey, Greece, Belgium, Germany, Sweden, Britain and Morocco collaborated in the investigation that led to the arrests. Transit points included Ventimiglia, an Italian city near its border with France and Trieste, in eastern Italy near Slovenia. ![]() ![]() ![]() “For example, departing from Syria and going to Oslo (Norway), or wherever they wanted to go."ĭepending on how much the migrants could pay - investigators said some paid as much as 15,000 euros ($16,500) apiece just for the sea leg of the voyage, although the going rate appeared to be 10,000 euros - the passengers on the land routes to northern Europe either took trucks, trains or taxis across Italy's northern land borders. “For the first time we succeeded in demonstrating all the passages, all the steps, of the migrant, depending on the passenger's origin and desired destination," Gratteri told reporters. In Calabria, Catanzaro Chief Prosecutor Nicola Gratteri described the investigation as groundbreaking in terms of understanding how a series of smuggling gangs work together, from point of origin to point of destination for the migrants, as well as in following the trail of the laundered revenues - profits off people's misery and desperation. The nearly four-year-long investigation was spearheaded by prosecutors in Calabria, the “toe” of the Italian peninsula, where many of these migrants arrive from Turkey or Greece, often on well-outfitted sailboats that elude detection by police or military personnel. If it happens to you, there is a chance of facing such a problem irrespective of the OS.ROME - Italian police on Wednesday arrested 29 suspected smugglers as they smashed a transnational operation that for years brought migrants illegally into Italy by sea and then moved them overland into northern Europe, authorities said.

Dylann vox7/26/2023 ![]() ![]() The story of apartheid South Africa is a bit more familiar. The lesson of Rhodesia, for white supremacists, is that black people are a threat to a healthy white-run society. They called it, naturally, "New Rhodesia." Earlier this year, about 150 people on a white supremacist web forum volunteered online to "found" a "new country" in Africa. Its long serving leader, Robert Mugabe, has become a nasty authoritarian: Zimbabwe under Mugabe has been an economic basket-case, suffering some of the world's worst hyper-inflation, and a human rights disaster.Īnd that is why people like Roof mythologize Rhodesia today: they see it (falsely, of course) as proof that countries are better off when white people run them. But the new Zimbabwean government had serious problems. In 1979, the Rhodesian government was toppled by an armed uprising - no surprise, considering black people outnumbered their white counterparts by about 25:1 (the equivalent number in South Africa was 7:1, per Horne). ![]() By 1976, "there was a sprawling proliferation of pro-Rhodesian organizations in the United States," University of Houston historian Gerald Horne writes "The transatlantic question of race was the essential glue that held the lobby together." In the United States, where the civil rights movement was winning historic victories, white supremacists saw the viciously racist Rhodesian government as a victory worth celebrating. In 1965, white natives led by a man named Ian Smith declared independence from Britain, and founded a country named Rhodesia, named after Cecil Rhodes (the British imperialist who led the colonization of the area). It was a terribly racist country, akin to apartheid South Africa, and became a sort of cause celebre for white supremacists in the 1960s and 1970s - one they still mythologize today.Īfter the area was colonized by the British in the late 1890s, a racial caste system quickly emerged in what would become Rhodesia, where white people controlled the commanding political heights, as well as most of the land, while black people served as peasants. Rhodesia used to be where today's Zimbabwe is. Here's a guide to what those flags mean - and why a man who appears to have committed a vicious hate crime would sport them on his jacket. That would be apartheid South Africa, which you might be aware of, and Rhodesia, which is a little less known. We know that not just from his actions: the above photo of Roof, identified by the Charleston Post and Courier, shows him wearing a jacket with the flags of two avowedly racist nations.

Gitup git2 forum7/26/2023 ![]() ![]() First turn on the RAW option in the Photo mode settings. ![]() In Wi-Fi client mode, you'll need to check the IP address displayed on the screen (toggle the network information display by pressing the settings button or the mode button). GitUp Thanks to the DashCamTalk member the-force who helped us to provide this tool and script. Simply choose "Open network stream" and type rtsp:// followed by the camera's IP address. New from GitUp based on Novatek NTK96660 chip with a 16 megapixel Sony Exmor IMX206. On Android, you can use VLC Media Player, available in the Play Store. To view the stream, all you need is a video player capable of opening an RTSP stream. The camera serves up a video feed via RTSP whenever it is connected to WiFi (client mode or AP mode). So this Gist aims to be an unofficial manual for the Git2, and it may be applicable to other GitUp cameras. I had to read 3 forum posts to even figure out how to connect it to a wifi network. As always, if I (or anyone else) finds something, Gitup will take care of it and release a firmware update to take care of it. The form factor has remained the same like on the. The technical platform has also been revamped and it's now based on the new and powerful NTKNTK96660 Novatek chipset. As we were expecting from the Git1 then new Git2 also uses a top quality back-illuminated 16 Megapixel Sony CMOS sensor. ![]() I love my Git2P camera, but I am very disappointed in the unprofessional forum-style support available for even basic functions on the cameras. The new Git2 made by the GitUp has been just released. I decided I did not really want to mess with it any longer, because things seemed kind of flaky and unrealiable - but that was obviously just my experience - I gave up after how easy the gopro worked.Unofficial Manual for GitUp Git2/Git2P Action Cameras ![]() I did not end up liking my setup though, atleast not once I got my gopro, so I returned the Git2. They have the free designs cataloged and the websites software does all the 3D printing calculations automatically (even lets you know if the part will not print correctly) and you do not have to get into all the nitty gritty of 3D printing stuff. The parts turned out really well and I got um relatively cheap because I ordered several parts at the same time all with the same base specs (color, fill-ratio, etc.) so I was only charge one $10 setup fee (the parts themselves cost anywhere from $1.50 - $6 depending on what I was buying and how many I was ordering. Because I really like to photograph with the Git2 the blurring annoys me. The 3D printed parts are available and i purchased from "", their 3D Co-OP-like printing service. The problem is: If not all Edges blurred and only one side of the image the lens isn't perfectly aligned and decentered. The stock solo gimbal HDMI connector works on this camera after you cut away a bit of the plastic underneath the connector - careful not to slice into the rubber covering the HDMI cable as I did, nearly slicing the wire, making my backup gimbal useless. The gimbal functions as smooth as it did with a GoPro. The fact that the Git2P weighs 23grams less than the GoPro Hero 4 Black helps. I was worried the gimbal would have a problem with the new camera sitting a quarter of an inch forward but it was not a problem. A small amount of trimming of plastic corner under the HDMI cable solved this problem. Sensor: Whereas Git2 uses a 16MP Sony IMX206 sensor (same as in YI Action Camera), both new Git2P models hold a 16 MP Panasonic MN34120PA sensor. Be careful, both cameras bear the same name Git2Pindicates the new Panasonic sensor being used. The HDMI cable was a couple of mm to short to plug into the camera. I was following a thread on the Git2 on the RC forums and found that some people were claiming that the SJCAM and Gitup batteries were the same. GitUp released two new versions of Git2: the Git2P. Velcro is simple and secure plus it makes it easy to change cameras. I use a Velcro strap to hold the camera in place. Feiyu Mini3D with GitUp Git2 Camera - RC Groups Classifieds FPV Equipment (FS/W) Sold Feiyu Mini3D with GitUp Git2 Camera Thread Tools This thread is privately moderated by Marc Dornan, who may elect to delete unwanted replies. Then I carefully cut off the rounded tab, on the left side, that was used to hold a GoPro, but was now in the way. Since the GIT2P has to sit in front of the connector, I made a quarter inch thick pad for the camera to rest against (see photo), using the black dense foam that came with the gimbal. I did not want to remove it, because I still want to be able to use it with a GoPro. The first problem I had to deal with was the connector that plugs into the back of a GoPro. Use of this camera required some modifications to the SOLO gimbal, but I made sure that I can still use a GoPro if I want. ![]()

People see mudic in color7/26/2023 ![]() ![]() And when he thinks of strong melodic or rhythmic patterns, it’s usually vivid reds, oranges or golds, like in “We Didn’t Start the Fire”. ![]() “When I think of different types of melodies which are slower or softer like “Lullaby (Goodnight My Angel)”, “And So It Goes” and “Vienna”, I think in terms of blues or greens,” he explained in an interview with Psychology Today. Billy Joel is one of these uniquely gifted individuals, often linking his ballads and rock songs with different hues and creating music from how he sees music in colour. Often times, the great musician would request for the orchestra to play “a little bluer”, “deep violet”, or “not so rose”.Īs awareness towards chromesthesia becomes more widely known, many musicians from the likes of Frank Ocean to Tori Amos to Billie Eilish have revealed that they experience some form of synesthesia, which helps them experience things more vividly, therefore contributing to their creative process. The condition of chromesthesia and seeing music in colour or colours in music stretches as far back as piano virtuoso Frank Lizst’s era, when it was said that he saw colours where there were only tones, thereby confusing his orchestra players. A visual representation of what people with sound to colour synesthesia actually see.įor artists and creators, the ability to bridge the gap between sound and colour is a gift that elevates their craft. ![]() While this might have been unheard of (and maybe even blasphemous) more than a century ago, it really does sound like Scriabin was ahead of his time as his description of Mysterium is incredibly similar to that of the fully immersive events we experience today. This will be done with the aid of mists and lights, which will modify the architectural contours.” The cathedral in which it will take place will not be of one single type of stone but will continually change with the atmosphere and motion of the Mysterium. The cast for performers includes an orchestra, a large mixed choir, an instrument with visual effects, dancers, a procession, incense, and rhythmic textural articulation. The work requires special people, special artists and a completely new culture. He wrote, “There will not be a single spectator. Up until his death in 1915, Scriabin was also working on Mysterium, a week-long event that, according to him, would combine the senses of smell, touch and hearing. While only one keyboard was made and many doubted that Scriabin was indeed seeing music in colour, it inspired the creation of modern-day music software, like Virtuoso 3.0, which allows users to play songs based on colour-coded keys to optimise harmonisation. This keyboard was decorated in the colours from his colour wheel, with each note corresponding to a specific shade. Scriabin also invented the clavier à lumières (keyboard with lights) for his work, Prometheus: Poem of Fire. Late into his career, he became influenced by his sound to colour synesthesia, which led him to develop his own colour system based on the circle of fifths. In the early 1900s, Scriabin became one of the most innovative (but also most controversial) composers of his time. Russian composer and pianist Alexander Scriabin was known as one of the earlier pracitionists of chromesthesia. Give it a try to find out if you also see or think in colour. However, there is no fixed sound-to-colour association and these combinations vary from person to person.īut what does chromesthesia look like? Rhett and Link from the YouTube channel Good Mythical Morning explore the topic with examples of what people with chromesthesia or synesthesia may actually see. It could be everyday things, for instance: the sizzle of bacon on a hot pan (red), the trickle of water from a jug into a glass (blue), or even the tinkling of coins in your pocket (gold).Ĭhromesthesia can also be something more technical, when a major or minor key evokes the image of different colours, as will specific notes like C (red), G (orange), D (yellow) and so on. You may be seeing music in colour or seeing sound as colour. So, what is chromesthesia? It is a type of synesthesia, where sound can evoke an experience of colour. The most common form of synesthesia is chromesthesia. Synesthesia is more apparent in women than men, and to date, over 60 types of synesthesia have been identified. Only two to four percent of people experience synesthesia, a perception phenomenon where two (or more) of their senses are connected, resulting in them seeing and feeling things differently. WHAT IS SYNESTHESIA? THE BLENDING OF SENSES If you’ve experienced this, you are not alone. You probably have something called chromesthesia. Have you ever thought to yourself, “This song reminds me of purple velvet", “I wish this sounded more pink!” or "so, what does yellow sound like?" You tell your friends, only to be met with blank stares. ![]()

Manico 3 prong trolling motor plug7/26/2023 ![]() ![]() "The plug" creates the series connection when it's inserted into the receptacle, and gives the TM 24V from 2- 12V batteries. If your plug/receptacle looks like, and is wired up like what KD posted up, then he's right, you need to jumper the plug. The trolling motor will be on its own series as it should and the rear battery is just powering the accessories. At this point I would just have to replace or leave disconnected the battery meter switch that used to monitor the front battery assuming it wont accept 24v. There would still be 12v going to the bottom of the receptacle from the rear battery, but at that point its just a fancy wire nut connecting the accessories. Then I should be able to just wire the top two prongs of my 4 prong plug. Then ill run my two battery series in the bow bringing 24v into the top of the receptacle. I think what im going to do is put the the cig lighter and courtesy light on with the starting battery so all accessories are run off that. If i ran two batteries in series at the bow it would then cause a prob with the voltage to the accessories. The starting battery runs the trim switch and batt meter switch. The bow battery runs the cig lighter, courtesy light and batt meter switch. The problem was that the leads coming from each batt have jumpers connected at the receptacle. Then I would have to do like you said and form the series at the plug. I thought about putting a second batt in the back and taking the lead to the front off of my starting batt, at least that way the TM wouldnt be pulling juice from that. If you make the connections at the plug, the plug is a mirror image of the receptacle. Now remember that the terminals I just mentioned are at the RECEPTACLE. ![]() You will then have +24 volts from the Lower right terminal on the receptacle and ground at the upper right terminal. If you have properly identified the receptacle connections as you indicated in your first post, then a jumper between the upper right terminal on the receptacle to the lower left terminal on the receptacle is necessary. If you insist on using whatever plug you have AND it OR the receptacle has screw type wiring connections in it, you need to make the series connection at the receptacle or the troller plug. Simple, and far less chance to make sparks. Or you could just do what I suggested, eliminate a long run (two actually) that eliminates unnecessary voltage drop and use just two pins. To get 24 volts from this system you need a matching four pin trolling motor plug that has the jumpers in it. There are two separate circuits (one from each battery going to the receptacle -hence the four wires. Your batteries are not in series or parallel. Regardless what you do some rewiring is necessary. The reason I suggested the two wire system is a) four wires are unnecessary and b) it eliiminates a long run of cable that causes voltage drop. You now have 24 volts going to the corresponding terminals at the receptacle.ĥ) Wire the trolling motor wires to the corresponding terminals on the plug. Tape the ends of the wires as they won't be used.ģ) Now connect the red & black pair as shown in the following diagram.Ĥ) Make a jumper that connects the positive of the left battery to the negative of the right battery. One pair is connected to each battery.Ģ) Totally disconnect the orange and black pair at the battery but DO NOT cut or remove them from the boat. Here is what you do.ġ) There should be two pairs of wires (usually one red & black and one orange & black) going up front. Note that you only need two wires since the series connection is made at the batteries rather than at the connector. Do you currently have a mating plug for this receptacle? If you do, the diagram below shows the simplest way to do this. It is just a four terminal plug and it was included because the boat manufacturer felt it was necessary to accommodate 12 volt, 24 volt, and combination 12/24 volt motors which are scarce as hens teeth new these days. They have nothing to do with higher level fishing boats. ![]()

Zeus poseidon greek god tattoos7/26/2023 ![]() ![]() Zeus and Poseidon tattoos are very popular nowadays because of the resurgence in Greek mythology in pop culture. As such he held sway over not only the oceans but also earthquakes and horses which were considered to be creatures of the sea. In Greek mythology, Poseidon was one of 12 Olympian gods who accepted Zeus as their king. Zeus and Poseidon Tattoos – A Great Matching Tattoo Option for Brothers The trident even became a Christian symbol for the holy trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. To instruct someone to do something means giving them an instruction with a weapon or tool (trident). The trident represents fire, water, and air – 3 basic elements of life that we see around us in their simplest form daily. He has a dolphin on his trident which symbolizes dolphins are under his control too. Poseidon – the ruler of the sea, earthquakes, and horses. This may be why Poseidon’s image has been co-opted by many gay communities which acknowledge his role as a symbol of masculinity, power, and spiritual enlightenment. You want to embrace your masculinity but remain spiritual. Having tattoos of Poseidon means you are looking for an alternative perspective on life. What Poseidon represents in this context is that he also related to water in addition to what you would assume by his name. Poseidon fathered many children, both with Amphitrite (the Nereid) and with mortals such as princess Amymone. The three brothers eventually allied and divided the world amongst themselves: Zeus took control of Olympus Hades was given dominion over the underworld, and Poseidon became lord of the sea. Greatly angered by this, Poseidon and his brothers fought a great war that destroyed their father’s kingdom, leaving only scattered islands in its wake. Poseidon was the second son of Rheia and Kronos, who ruled over Atlantis until his brother Zeus deposed him from his throne. He also held sway over Demeter and Dionysus. When Horkhos wouldn’t release the imprisoned giants he was punished for this crime against humanity by having an eagle carry off one of his eyes. He is often seen with his brother/nephew Zeus who became ruler of Olympus after deposing their father, and his other brothers Hades and Horkos (or Horkhos). ![]() He married Amphitrite, a Nereid, and they had many children including Triton and Rhode. Poseidon was fathered by Kronos with Rheia (the wife of Oceanus). He was the father to many mythological creatures which included a flying horse named Pegasus, the Minotaur (a creature with the head of a bull on the body of a man), and numerous others such as hippocamps (horses with mermaid-like tails) and golden deer among others. Poseidon was a master horseman and masterful in all forms of animal training. However, Poseidon could not control everybody of water so it became an enemy to those who were sailors or fishermen. This symbolized dominion over the sea and was used by him to create storms and whirlpools when thrown into deep water. His weapon was a three-pronged fork (trident). Poseidon was depicted as a mature man with a sturdy figure and dark beard that covered most of his face. ![]() In his many roles, he also became known as the “Earth Shaker” because of his power over landmasses. He is one of the triads of supreme gods from which all others came to be Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades. In Greek mythology, Poseidon was the god of the sea and earthquakes. ![]()
