![]() ![]() The telescope is an international collaboration led by NASA in partnership with the European and Canadian space agencies. Webb's instruments also make it ideal to search for evidence of potentially life-supporting atmospheres around scores of newly documented exoplanets - celestial bodies orbiting distant stars - and to observe worlds much closer to home, such as Mars and Saturn's icy moon Titan. ![]() While Hubble caught glimmers of "toddler" galaxies, Webb will reveal those objects in greater detail while also capturing even fainter, earlier "infant" galaxies, astrophysicist Eric Smith, NASA's Webb program scientist, told Reuters hours before the launch.Īside from examining the formation of the earliest stars and galaxies, astronomers are eager to study super-massive black holes believed to occupy the centers of distant galaxies. Hubble's view reached back to roughly 400 million years following the Big Bang, a period just after the very first galaxies - sprawling clusters of stars, gases and other interstellar matter - are believed to have taken shape. That, astronomers say, will bring into view a glimpse of the cosmos never previously seen - dating to just 100 million years after the Big Bang, the theoretical flashpoint that set in motion the expansion of the observable universe an estimated 13.8 billion years ago. The new telescope's primary mirror - consisting of 18 hexagonal segments of gold-coated beryllium metal - also has a much bigger light-collecting area, enabling it to observe objects at greater distances, thus farther back into time, than Hubble or any other telescope. Webb mainly will view the cosmos in the infrared spectrum, allowing it to peer through clouds of gas and dust where stars are being born, while Hubble has operated primarily at optical and ultraviolet wavelengths. ![]()

We invested in a company called SundaySky which is the creator of “ SmartVideo,” a newer, better, smarter way of using video to communicate with prospects and customers.ī, an ad network in which NVP was invested, recently sold to Valassis. We continue to meet with a lot of companies in these sectors – particularly mobile and video. There are still major advertising dollars continuing to shift toward video, social and mobile advertising.We invested this year in The Echo Nest, a company with a massive big data platform of songs and artists that enables app developers to build super smart music apps. We are also seeing the use of big data disrupting new markets. We have looked hard at some neat companies in this arena. We are certainly seeing big data being heavily applied for audience segmentation, real time bidding and dynamic marketing purposes. We like companies that apply big data in novel business approaches that disrupt existing online markets or create new online markets.Stay tuned here – we’ll be announcing shortly another investment in a company which leverages community generated content.

Examples of these companies are the online coupon company WhaleShark/RetailMeNot, the online retailer of customer-designed fine jewelry Gemvara, the innovative online retailer of vintage-inspired fashion and décor Modcloth, and the collaborative invention company Quirky. We like e-commerce companies that offer superior content/products to their customers because they actively involve their user communities in the creation of the very content/products that they offer.That said, we are pursuing investment opportunities around the consumer internet, e-commerce, ad tech, financial tech and information services sectors. We are always looking for exceptional teams with a disruptive business/technology approach to a large market. Has Norwest Venture Partners evolved its investment thesis in the past year?Īt its core, our investment thesis does not change over time. Turn is one such example of a team in ad tech that we backed – Turn operates in a crowded space with a lot of DSP and DMP competitors, but the company is executing well and is scaling rapidly. So, for us as investors, that puts a premium on us backing teams that not only have a strong product/market vision, but can also out-execute the competition. Now, as we just mentioned, each LUMAscape in the ad tech arena is extremely crowded – so crowded that it is really hard for any one firm in a sector to have breakout success and scale to a large outcome. The result is an ongoing, robust level of new company formation and opportunities for venture firms. ![]() We don’t believe that the investment opportunities in ad tech have played out, as the overall sector continues to enjoy healthy growth and there are innovative teams pursuing new ideas on a regular basis in ad tech.

The specific themes you can expect to see from each of these facets of life (each house) are determined by which sign lives there. “Sometimes it’s easier to guess someone’s rising sign than their actual sign because it’s also the first house, which is the ‘I am’ house,” Mesa explains. ![]() Every house holds one of the 12 signs beginning with the ascendant, which is the first house. There are 12 astrological houses - each representing a certain area of life. From there, you can pop in your birthday, time, and location into an online birth chart calculator. “In the sky, one portion was ascending up, corresponding to a zodiac sign in that portion of the sky.” So, knowing your exact birth time is essential to determine which sign was ascending when you entered the world. “The rising sign was literally the sign rising over the eastern horizon at the moment of your birth,” explains professional astrologer Maren Altman. What sets their charts apart is the rising sign, which is determined by the specific birth time.Įvery day, each of the 12 zodiac signs rises over the eastern horizon for approximately two hours, depending on location. the same signs for their sun, moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, etc. Most of their charts would consist of the same planetary placements - i.e. Say there are two people born on the same exact day in the same town. What does it mean if you have a Gemini rising sign? Here’s the exact energy you exude if you have your ascendant in the sign of the Twins, according to astrologers. “It’s definitely an energy that we embody, but it’s also an energy that people grow into with time, and it’s also part of the life mission.” “It really is the energetic theme, the major path, major part of our astrological footprint,” Mesa tells Elite Daily. ![]() It determines everything from your physical appearance and how people perceive you, to your character, purpose, and how your interact with the world. Astrologers argue that the rising is the most important part of a person’s birth chart because it lays the foundation for the whole chart. When meeting people for the first time, “the rising is very prominent,” according to Miami-based astrologer Valerie Mesa. ![]() The ascendant sign is often referred to as the “first impression” sign because this is the energy outwardly presenting itself around new faces. The bottom line is that being a Gemini sun and having a Gemini rising sign are definitely not the same thing. If you are a Gemini rising, you could have a completely different sun sign, which, if you’ve ever read other signs’ horoscopes, would explain why you might have resonated with that of Gemini more. This placement is actually more important and indicative of who you are than your sun sign. Where the real proverbial meat and potatoes of your birth chart lie are in the rising sign, aka the ascendant. But if you’ve ever read your horoscope and thought “this has nothing to do with me,” you’re not alone. That is the sun sign, lording over a person’s ego, core self, and motivations. Just about everyone can tell you what their zodiac sign is. ![]() ![]() ![]() This is only the second stop-motion animated movie to win the animated feature category, which was first presented in 2002. But a kid can put a camera on the wall in their room, they can do animation in stop motion.” All the other forms of animation are too difficult or too expensive. ”Īdded the director: “It will help us give more movies in the community in Mexico and in Latin America, to keep pushing for stop motion, which is one of the most democratic forms of animation. “It’s important that we keep this alive as an industry and an art form,” del Toro continued. “I have right now two scholarships active for filmmakers, and it is my desire and my commitment now to finance a stop-motion class. He related that he would “push this message” at the upcoming the Annecy International Animation Festival. So a win helps, but it is about going forward as a community.” He asserted that taking animation to the next level also needs to involve dialog with the Guilds and the Academy. Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio tells this truth about its otherworldly title character: he can be a little unsettling, or even scary, before you get to know him. GUILLERMO DEL TORO'S PINOCCHIO Official Trailer Netflix / netflix Oscar-winning filmmaker Guillermo del Toro reinvents the classic story of a wooden puppet brought to life in this. “And it really is a mature, expressive, beautiful, complex, art form. “This is an art form that has kept being kneecaped commercially and industrially and the kid’s table for so long,” del Toro said backstage, elaborating on his on-stage remarks about the state of animation. “It’s good to know that this art form that we love so much, stop-motion, is very much alive and well,” said Gustafson, accepting the award as he thanked ShadowMachine and The Jim Henson Company. ![]() It’s the first Academy Award for stop-motion vet Mark Gustafson, who directed alongside del Toro producer Alexander Bulkley, a partner in animation production studio ShadowMachine and del Toro’s longtime collaborator, producer Gary Ungar. 2022 Calificación por edades: 7+ 2h 1 min Fantasy.

Having kernel drivers in an O/S is a huge risk in this regard, ultimately to work around a duplicacy issue in that threading isn't universally supported in all commands. ![]() At times they don't update very quickly, leaving users "stranded" for some period of time (often many months or longer). In the case of Google, this is "risky" at best. When a new O/S comes out, sometimes software doesn't run properly under it, and you need to wait for software vendors to update software to work with newer releases. However, another concern has come up: designing a backup system dependent on something like Google Drive File Stream can make it very difficult to deal with new versions of Mac OS/X (or Windows for major updates, etc). I didn't have time last night to look at this, and I still plan on doing so. ![]() But some smallish number (like 8-16 threads), should be under the limits. Yes, GCD has a limit to the number of concurrent operations. The duplicacy check command should support the -threads parameter to allow multiple threads to collect the chunk data with considerably less delay. Network/backend delays ultimate cause a dramatic speed difference. Meanwhile, GCD chunks are generally broken into 256 directories, and each of those directories need directory operations performed on them. Azure implements an API that allows Duplicacy to get all the chunk metadata in a very small number of API calls. Investigation showed that the difference was in the storage backends.

The Professional and Business plans can host conference calls with up to 150 and 250 participants, respectively. GoTo Meeting has three plans, all of which come with the same basic features. But if you can forego those things, it's cheaper than Zoom's equivalent service, and offers a high-quality user experience. You can't share videos and you can't take polls, for example. The only downside is that GoTo Meeting is missing a few advanced features that could really add to the conference call experience.
