![]() Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.), sending a letter to the Department of Justice regarding “Apple’s potential anti-competitive treatment of the Beeper Mini messaging application.” Apple’s actions toward Beeper, the letter suggests, could “eliminate choices for consumers,” “discourage future innovation and investment” in messaging, and make Apple a “digital gatekeeper,” suggesting a need for review by the DOJ’s Antitrust Division. That interview lined up with another development: a bi-partisan foursome of US lawmakers, including Sen. Senators Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) and Mike Lee (R-UT), as well as Representatives Jerry Nadler (D-NY) and Ken Buck (R-CO), said in a letter to the DOJ that Beeper’s Android messaging app, Beeper Mini, was a threat to Apple’s leverage by “creating more competitive mobile applications market, which in turn a more competitive mobile device market.”Įric Migicovsky welcomed CBS Mornings into his garage, where he advanced his argument that Beeper was turning grossly insecure SMS messages between iPhone and Android users into secure, end-to-end encrypted chats. a group of US lawmakers are pushing for the DOJ to investigate Apple for “potentially anticompetitive conduct” over its attempts to disable Beeper’s services. ![]() ![]() I’m supposed to believe these guys are smart enough to reverse engineer iMessage but dumb enough to not expect Apple to block it? I’m starting to suspect that Beeper Mini is a pretense to sue or regulate Apple, much like Epic trying to sneak IAP past the App Store. We do not have any current plans to respond if this solution is knocked offline.” With our latest software release, we believe we’ve created something that Apple can tolerate existing. As much as we want to fight for what we believe is a fantastic product that really should exist, the truth is that we can’t win a cat-and-mouse game with the largest company on earth. ![]() “Each time that Beeper Mini goes ‘down’ or is made to be unreliable due to interference by Apple, Beeper’s credibility takes a hit,” the company wrote in a blog post. The registration code can be added to the Beeper Mini app, and it allows an Android phone number to be registered with iMessage.Īlthough the company has issued a complex workaround, it says it has no plans to roll out another one if this one is knocked down by Apple. Beeper Mini’s developers suggest that customers get an old iPhone 6, 6s, original SE, 7, 8, or X and jailbreak it with a Mac or Linux computer to install a Beeper tool that generates an iMessage registration code. The second more complicated Beeper Mini workaround uses an iPhone. The Beeper Mini team says that 10 to 20 people can “safely” use the same registration data, but the Mac method limits Beeper Mini users to email-based iMessage communications, and it requires an Apple ID. The developers say this service will be available in the new year, if there is enough interest. If users don’t have access to an old iPhone for jailbreaking in order to complete the registration process, that’s okay – Beeper will rent them one for a small monthly fee. The developers of Beeper Mini, the iMessage for Android app, are back with another attempt to keep Apple’s blue bubbles onside, and this time they will ask users to generate their iMessage registration data with the help of jailbroken iPhones, MacRumors has learned. The Beeper Mini team says that registration data is “only used to indicate that a Mac is available during registration” and that the Mac will not be given access to an account or messages. The Beeper update will instead generate unique registration data for each Mac, making it harder for Apple to tell which users are accessing iMessage through an Android device. On Reddit, the Beeper Mini team says that the Mac-based fix coming on December 20 stabilizes iMessage for Beeper Cloud and Mini, and it “works well” and “is very reliable.”īeeper has been using its own Mac servers to provide that information to Apple, but that resulted in thousands of Beeper users having the same registration info, which was an “easy target for Apple.” Beeper’s Final Fixes and Government Investigations

![]() Does the circle intersect the axes? Explain your reasoning. Substitute □ = 1 and □ = 4 into the equation of the circle found in part a.Ĭ. Show that the point with coordinates (1, 4) lies on the circumference of this circle. The radius squared is 9, so the radius is 3 units.ī. Put this all back into the original equation, collect the constants and rearrange into the equation for a circle: The □ terms are □ 2 + 4□ so begin by writing this expression in completed square form: Find the coordinates of the centre and the radius of the circle.Ī. If a question does not give the equation of a circle in this form, you will need to complete the square for □ and □ to convert it to the general form.Ī circle has equation □ 2 + 4□ + □ 2 – 8□ + 11 = 0.Ī. This gives the equation for a circle with a centre at (□, □) and a radius of □: To move the centre □ up, we replace □ 2 with (□ – □) 2.To move the centre □ to the right, we replace □ 2 with (□ – □) 2.You can generalise this to find the equation of a circle with a centre at any point by applying a transformation to the above graph. Which of the following is a chord, but not a diameter?ĥ.Are you looking for info on circles (Maths revision for A level)? A circle, with a centre at the origin and a radius of □, can be described with the equation: A circle divides the plane into three parts: The points inside the circle, the points outside the circle and the points on the circle.ġ. A plane is a flat surface that extends without end in all directions. All diameters are chords, but not all chords are diameters. The parts of a circle include a radius, diameter and a chord. Summary: A circle is a shape with all points the same distance from its center. Solution: The diameter of a circle is twice as long as the radius. If DG is 5 inches long, then how long is DB? Name two chords on this circle that are not diameters. You can see an interactive demonstration of this by placing your mouse over the three items below.Ī circle divides a plane into three parts: The top of your desk and a chalkboard are objects which can be used to represent a plane, although they do not satisfy the definition above.Ī circle divides the plane into three parts: Intuitively, a plane may be visualized as a flat infinite sheet of paper. In the diagram to the right, Plane P contains points A, B and C.Ĭan you think of some real world objects that satisfy the definition of a plane? At this level of mathematics, that is difficult to do. Thus we have circle A.Ī plane is a flat surface that extends without end in all directions. ![]() In the circle to the right, the center is point A. A circle is the set of points that are equidistant from a special point in the plane. Let's revisit the definition of a circle. Thus, it can be stated, every diameter is a chord, but not every chord is a diameter. This is because every diameter passes through the center of a circle, but some chords do not pass through the center. A diameter satisfies the definition of a chord, however, a chord is not necessarily a diameter. It turns out that a diameter of a circle is the longest chord of that circle since it passes through the center. By cutting along chord AB, you are cutting off a segment of pizza that includes this chord. If this circle was a pizza pie, you could cut off a piece of pizza along chord AB. The circle to the right contains chord AB. In geometry, a chord is often used to describe a line segment joining two endpoints that lie on a circle. As you can see, a circle has many different radii and diameters, each passing through its center.Ī chord is a line segment that joins two points on a curve. A straight cut made from a point on the circle, continuing through its center to another point on the circle, is a diameter. A radius is formed by making a straight cut from the center to a point on the circle. Look at the pizza to the right which has been sliced into 8 equal parts through its center. We can look at a pizza pie to find real-world examples of diameter and radius. Thus, the diameter of a circle is twice as long as the radius. If you place two radii end-to-end in a circle, you would have the same length as one diameter. The radius of a circle is the distance from the center of a circle to any point on the circle. A real-world example of diameter is a 9-inch plate. The distance across a circle through the center is called the diameter. Some real world examples of a circle are a wheel, a dinner plate and (the surface of) a coin. Thus, the circle to the right is called circle A since its center is at point A. We will also examine the relationship between the circle and the plane.Ī circle is a shape with all points the same distance from its center. Let's look at the definition of a circle and its parts. A circle is an important shape in the field of geometry. ![]() In my experience, deeper level scans still took a couple of hours. ![]() I believe them, but the speed improvements really depend greatly on what you need to do. One minor complaint about the new version: Prosoft claims better performance for this new release. This can help when you just need a back-up start-up drive and not carry around an external HDD. The app also lets you burn a DVD of your hard drive and you can even use this drive to boot your Mac. (I used a professional camera from Phase One that uses the Leaf Aptus II back.) Data Rescue did not support this camera directly though (over FireWire) but read the MOS files I had on another drive. The new feature called FileIQ now “learns” about file types, such as oddball RAW files from digital cameras, and in my tests did a good job of at least pulling some of the photographic data out of these files. That procedure can cost thousands and take months, so Data Rescue 3 is actually quite a bargain if it actually works for recovering your data.ĭata Rescue 3 improves on previous releases in one important way: it now supports hundreds and hundreds of file types for the best file recovery options around. In a true drive emergency, you’d likely enlist the help of a drive forensics company that will dismantle a drive and re-assemble the platter into the exact same drive components in order to rescue the data. In many ways, the tool is actually not the last step. It’s a bit ironic that Prosoft positions Data Rescue as a last resort, a dire call for emergency aid. The program works with thumbdrives and external hard drives, and even flash cards from digital cameras. You might have a great need to recover a deleted file, access files on a damaged drive to restore them, or examine files to see if they can be rescued. The software is intended for anyone who wants to do more than just repair a drive. With a large fire alarm switch on the front box cover, Prosoft Engineering’sĭata Rescue 3 makes a bold point: when your drive has problems, call in the rescue team. ![]() General Guidelines for Tables and Figuresħ.2 Design and Preparation of Tables and Figuresħ.3 Graphical Versus Textual Presentationħ.5 Referring to Tables and Figures in the Textħ.7 Reprinting or Adapting Tables and Figuresħ.15 Standard Abbreviations in Tables and Figuresħ.31 Considerations for Electrophysiological, Radiological, Genetic, and Other Biological DataĨ.4 Correspondence Between Reference List and TextĨ.5 Use of the Published Version or Archival Version “Which”)Ĥ.29 Working With Copyeditors and Writing CentersĦ.16 Diseases, Disorders, Therapies, Theories, and Related TermsĦ.17 Titles of Works and Headings Within WorksĦ.19 Nouns Followed by Numerals or LettersĦ.20 Names of Conditions or Groups in an ExperimentĦ.21 Names of Factors, Variables, and EffectsĦ.34 Combining Numerals and Words to Express NumbersĦ.44 Statistical Symbols and AbbreviationsĦ.45 Spacing, Alignment, and Punctuation for StatisticsĦ.48 Preparing Statistical and Mathematical Copy for Publication “Whom”)Ĥ.21 Pronouns in Restrictive and Nonrestrictive Clauses (“That” vs. ![]() “That”)Ĥ.20 Pronouns as Subjects and Objects (“Who” vs. Reporting Standards for Mixed Methods Researchģ.18 Basic Expectations for Mixed Methods Research ReportingĤ.4 Importance of Conciseness and ClarityĤ.19 Pronouns for People and Animals (“Who” vs. Reporting Standards for Qualitative Researchģ.13 Basic Expectations for Qualitative Research Reportingģ.15 Qualitative Findings or Results Standards Reporting Standards for Quantitative Researchģ.5 Basic Expectations for Quantitative Research Reportingģ.9 Additional Reporting Standards for Typical Experimental and Nonexperimental Studiesģ.10 Reporting Standards for Special Designsģ.12 Quantitative Meta-Analysis Standards Protecting the Rights and Welfare of Research Participants and Subjectsġ.18 Rights and Welfare of Research Participants and Subjectsġ.23 Authors’ Intellectual Property Rights During Manuscript Reviewġ.24 Authors’ Copyright on Unpublished Manuscriptsģ.1 Application of the Principles of JARSĬommon Reporting Standards Across Research Designs More than 40 new sample tables and figures, including student-friendly examples such as a correlation table and a bar chart as well as examples that show how to reproduce a table or figure from another source.Įxpanded guidance on ethical writing and publishing practices, including how to ensure the appropriate level of citation, avoid plagiarism and self-plagiarism, and navigate the publication process.ġ.5 Quantitative and Qualitative Meta-Analysesġ.10 Student Papers, Dissertations, and ThesesĮthical, legal, and professional standards in publishingĮnsuring the Accuracy of Scientific Findingsġ.12 Ethical and Accurate Reporting of Research Resultsġ.13 Errors, Corrections, and Retractions After Publicationġ.15 Additional Data-Sharing Considerations for Qualitative Researchġ.16 Duplicate and Piecemeal Publication of Dataġ.17 Implications of Plagiarism and Self-Plagiarism More than 100 new reference examples covering periodicals, books, audiovisual media, social media, webpages and websites, and legal resources.

Always buy antler chews approximately proportionate to your dog’s body size. Supervise their activity so they do not attempt to swallow or break the antler. A great natural source for calcium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, magnesium, iron, zinc & manganese.Īlways use caution when first offering your dog antler chews. Antlers contain many of the best nutrients that your dog craves. this is due to their high calcium content of these bone-like natural growths. Natural antler dog chews are much longer lasting than rawhide or synthetic chew toys, even longer than raw bones. Our antler chews are all-natural as they come from wild animals or from farmed animals that are never given any steroids, unnecessary antibiotics or other growth promoting chemicals. Hard antler is an annually renewable crop providing a safe, all-natural antler chew treat for your dog. These all drop their old hard antler in late winter and start growing new antlers (velvet antlers) each and every spring. So, whether you buy goat meat online or right from our retail ranch store, you know you will get a quality goat meat product at a fair price.Īll-natural antler chews come predominately from Rocky Mountain Elk as well as deer species like mule deer, whitetail, red deer, moose, and fallow deer. We are America’s value leader for producing high quality, reasonably priced young goat meat at prices that almost all can find affordable. Goat is especially rich in protein and iron but contains only a modest fat and cholesterol content making this meat a logical choice for a high protein low fat diet.Īll meat goats are raised under all-natural conditions with never a hint of antibiotics to stimulate growth. While milder in flavor than lamb, goat is not as rich nor as greasy as lamb, yet still very juicy. Young goat meat is prized for its lean, but tender and flavorful characteristics. Our goat meat is from 7 to 12-month-old, +/- 90 pound weanling Boer goats, the best goat meat producing animals of the species. The terms Chevon, Cabrito, Capretto and Goat Meat are names that can be used interchangeably, however, some cultures define cabrito is weaned or suckling goat, while Chevon or Capretto is the meat of an older yearling, weaned meat goat. Goat Meat, also known as Chevon, Cabrito or Capretto is the very tender meat of young kid goats. Venison designed marinates or using moist cooking methods can help create a better venison eating experience for those who like to cook whitetail meat past medium. Since Whitetail venison is so lean, cooking too long will dry the venison out, losing much of the flavor and most of the tenderness. ![]() Whitetail is a very lean game meat, venison must be cooked as rare as one can possibly stand it. Nothing will beat a flame-broiled rare venison steak, right off your grill, with a hint of salt. Simply, Whitetail deer meat is one of the most delicious, richest and leanest meat you can cook. Lean, bold and much more filling than any beef cut, Whitetail venison can be a delicious taste treat, lower in fat and cholesterol and higher in active protein, iron and many other the essential minerals. Whitetail Venison Steaks, roasts, venison burgers Grande Premium Meats has it all. We control the raising and the processing methods to meet our exacting specifications we make sure no growth additives or animal byproducts are ever used. Whitetail venison is farm raised and we process the deer meat through our contracted producers and processors scattered throughout the mid-western United States. ![]() We offer a full range of Bison cuts from steaks, to roasts, to ground meat. The Grain-Finished Bison steaks might have a bit more fat and a bit less of the Omega 3 oils, but they are still much leaner that a comparable cut of beef. While many tout the nutritional benefits of grass-fed Bison meat, nothing can beat the tenderness and flavor of a Grain-Finished animal with its robust delicious savor. Grande Premium Meats has become America’s value leader for producing high quality, reasonably priced Buffalo meat at prices that almost everyone can afford. Just a few years ago Bison was one of those special treats that was reserved for special occasions, but not anymore. Almost hunted to extinction a hundred years ago, Buffalo are on the rise with literally 100’s of thousands of animals now available to make delicious bison meat. American Buffalo or, more correctly Bison, is one of the few original red meats eagerly sought out by the native Americans and pioneers who developed the old west. ![]() Get intelligent suggestions on your Lock screen and in Messages, Mail, QuickType, and more.Use your voice to send messages, set reminders, and more.Video mirroring and video out support: Up to 1080p through Lightning Digital AV Adapter and Lightning to VGA Adapter (adapters sold separately) 7.Up to 4K HDR AirPlay for mirroring, photos, and video out to Apple TV (2nd generation or later) or AirPlay 2–enabled smart TV.Video formats supported: HEVC, H.264, MPEG‑4 Part 2, and Motion JPEG. ![]()
