Thankfully, spring temperatures also registered cooler and attenuated the record snowmelt. Record snowpack meant that the spring melt brought generational flooding to low-lying areas of the Valley including the formation of the historic Tulare Lake in Kings County. The CFWD team said that conditions were uncharacteristically wet across the Central Valley during the early nesting season. Much-needed water created a trickledown effect that may have initially made the nesting and brood-rearing seasons difficult at times, but benefited pheasants, other game, and farmers in the long run. It appears the heavy rain events have allowed for habitat to rebound a bit in 2023, helping to compensate for the past few years of drought conditions. ![]() ![]() Plus, there was fortunate spacing between storms that may have provided critical relief for upland birds.įlooding in many areas of the state likely pushed pheasants toward the periphery of their home ranges, but the above-average precipitation resulted in emergent vegetation that provided additional cover over winter. The snowpack in the Sierra Nevada was among the highest on record as temperatures were cool. ![]() WEATHER AND CONDITIONSĪccording to the team from CFWD, the winter of 2022-23 brought a series of atmospheric rivers bearing record precipitation and snowfall for California. Ian Dwight, Matt Meshriy and Katherine Miller, of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), provided input on the state of the 2023 pheasant hunting season in California. While flooding may have impacted pheasants in some areas, things are still in a much better place than during the drought. Cover and insect forage should be in a much better place than they were a year ago for upland birds … and that should mean more pheasants this fall. Heavy precipitation over the past year has provided better cover and insect forage in 2023.Ī few years of drought conditions have been washed away with near record precipitation levels over the past year in California. Pheasant Hunting Forecast 2023: California UPLAND HABITAT REBOUNDING IN THE GOLDEN STATE AFTER A FEW EXTREMELY DRY YEARS Tom Carpenter, Editor – 2023 Pheasant Hunting Forecast And it is where communion happens in fall, with a bird dog romping ahead, our hearts glad and faces smiling and a rooster out there somewhere, giving us the good old slip. » Conditions trend from generally dry to downright droughty heading into fall, and that will impact hunting, from the careful approach you might bring to the hunt, to habitat status on the ground (including some emergency mowing, haying and grazing regionally).įor pheasants, and all other manner of upland wildlife, habitat is everything. Nesting success makes birds for hunting, period. ![]() » A goodly base of the core pheasant range experienced almost ideal nesting conditions with a relatively dry and warm spring, punctuated by moisture at just the right times in early summer to help nesting habitat growth and vibrancy. But pheasants are tough and, when wintering habitat is there, can survive one hell of an onslaught of snow and cold. In many places, pheasant hunters thought all was lost.

![]() (It sounds basically like how television sounds in a movie where the room the television is running in is recorded. Compared to the G930, the G533 has quite a muffled/dull sound with its factory settings. When installed on your system you should see a program called "Configure G930". I just recently got my new Logitech G533, after my G930 basically were hanging on by a thread. Deleting this folder will prevent the LGS from re-asserting control over the headset once you install the right software and drivers. Perform a lobotomy on LGS by deleting the 'G930' folder.In the 'resource' folder find the folder called 'G930'.Go to the location on your computer where LGS is installed.Go back to your device manager and uninstall any G930 headset audio drivers if you see them again.Go to your device manager and ensure your headset drivers are uninstalled.It does have some presets but if your application isn't in the preset you're S.O.L.Īfter installing the software all of my issues went away. What it doesn't do is allow custom macros being bound to the buttons. Installing the above installs an older software suite for the g930 that correctly handles most of the functionality of the LGS. So I needed a solution that kept the LGS but prevented it from controlling my headset. This solution wasn't great for me because I also use a G110 and a G700s and I love my macros. That's right, 100% of my problems were related to the LGS and the LGS alone! I eventually got to the point where I uninstalled the LGS because everything worked great without the LGS for me. ![]() Contacting support, going to terrible versions of LGS, changing the battery interval, nothing worked. I tried everything on forums to solve the issue.

The Advisors seemed happy to retain this facade. None of the citizens of City 17 or even the Resistance seemed to be aware of their existence. They subsisted in pods during this time, reliant on life support systems. During the Combine control of Earth, a number of them lived within the Citadel and ruled the planet through Dr. Under normal circumstances, the Advisors seem content to live in artificial seclusion. They can communicate with others telepathically as well. ![]() Besides their technological prowess, they also appear to possess incredible psychic and telekinetic powers. The appendage is used similarly to an invertebrate's proboscis and plunged into a weak point, such as the human neck shown from a scene in Half-Life 2: Episode Two.Ĭombine Advisors have a wide range of odd vocalizations, from robotic growls and groans to loud shouting noises and screeching.

Using a digital version of the One-Pager offers more opportunity and creativity for students to achieve opposed to limiting them to a paper version. I’ve seen many students use GIFs to enhance their borders or even Bitmoji images to create a personalized statement. Those students who are afraid of being judged by their artwork can now feel comforted that they can insert any image they want using an internet search. No more messy markers or crumbling crayons. Students will see that they can do more online than using a piece of paper. Once students are able to make a copy of their own (an easy way to accomplish this is to use Google Classroom to distribute copies to each student) then the magic happens. Make a copy and add it to your Google Drive for future purposes. Here is the template that I use with my students. Students can use word art, add text boxes, insert images and GIFs and use the paint bucket to make a border color POP! It seemed like the best fit as it’s not only free software in which all SUSD students have access to, but it also has the necessary elements needed to accomplish the task at hand. When thinking of digitizing this assignment I turned to none other than Google Drawing. This teacher finishes the lesson by having his students present their work using a Gallery Walk (which can also be achieved using laptops set up on a table). The following video showcases a teacher using the paper version but also presents one way of communicating guidelines and instructions to students. Or, you might swap out Costa’s questions for Bloom’s. I know that some teachers request that their students use specific colors which represent a deeper meaning behind the text…obviously, students should know about color symbolism in order for this to relate. You know your own students best so feel free to add and/or change anything within the One-Pager that you see fit. Like with almost anything in education, things can be adapted. Looking at the rubric below may be helpful: Border, which reflects the main idea or theme.A One-Pager should include the following: A One-Pager is a great way to have students complete in lieu of a boring formal assessment or a long, drawn-out writing task. ![]() Students will use one page of paper to reflect on a given piece of literary work or text. This particular blog will focus on digitizing an AVID One-Pager.Ī One-Pager seems self-explanatory. In my last blog, Going Digital w/AVID Part I, I went over some various ways to annotate online text using Google Docs and Kami’s online PDF editing software. Now, with digital technology being so abundantly available in schools, it’s time to start integrating the two. Traditionally speaking, some of the more popular strategies found in lessons that focus on the Critical Reading Process, such as using Cornell Notes, Marking the Text and Writing in the Margins were developed with the intention of using paper and pencil. I have been teaching the AVID elective at the middle school level for over five years now and have come to learn that the AVID curriculum contains a plethora of good teaching practices. Incorporating digital elements in combination with AVID is a recipe for success and can easily be implemented using one’s curriculum! Whether you are an AVID elective teacher or not, using AVID teaching strategies in the classroom can have many benefits.

Indeed, in case I don’t have an advanced rule for that application, I opted for the all browsers prompt menu. First, choose what it should do when multiple browsers are running at once: should it fire up the best running browser, use your favorite browser or just prompt to select from all of them? The choice it’s up to you, but I don’t really use this option that much. Moving on, after this scanning thing the developer should seriously improve (but you can obviously manually remove those browsers, it’s just I wanted the process to be magic on its own) it’s time to effectively set up the behavior of Choosy. To find out why, and adjust the settings in order to prevent Choosy to be another pain in the neck, you need to open the Preferences. So, the first thing you’ll notice after the installation of Choosy (it’s a prefpane, you only need a double click to install it) is that whenever you’ll try to open a link from an app a HUD-ish panel will overlay your screen asking you to choose between some browsers. ![]() ![]() And as I said, this is very common between web developers. But before I take this thing more in-depth, let me clarify that Choosy is not for everyone: keep reading only if you really need to open links in different browsers for your work purposes. Basically, Choosy lets you specify a default browse r for any link from any application on your Mac and enables you to choose the browser for that link every single time. But what a pain can be to manually open overtime a different link in a different browser? A huge pain.Ĭhoosy (developed by George Brocklehurst ) is a preference pane that will install itself in the System Preferences under the Other tab. That said, if you’re a designer or a developer it’s very likely that you need to test the websites you’re creating under different rendering engines. The rest is either made of variations / beta versions or just shit. Though a few months ago I wrote a huge roundup about the ultimate list of browsers for Mac which featured more than 40 of them, there are actually 4 main browers: Safari, Firefox, Opera and Chrome. Any one of the remaining players may select another Railjack mission from the Navigation console located in the Railjack's bridge, which includes docking the Railjack back in the hosting player's Dry Dock.Įmpyrean gamemode and Railjacks use a slightly altered system of the currently existing damage system. However, contrary to the warning, all items and resources will also in fact be added to the player's account. Instead, once Bonus Rewards above are shown on the screen - the mission is considered complete at that point, and any player in the squad can simply abort the mission ( ESC > Abort Mission), which will display a warning that only progress will be saved, but not any items or resources earned during the mission. These troops will not only threaten the Tenno aboard the Railjack but also periodically spawn hazards such as fires and hull breaches that if not repaired in time may cause the mission to fail.Ĭompleting the mission will not offer an extraction point that players familiar with ground missions may expect. A commandeered crewship will become an active target for enemy gunships.īoth crewships and points of interest will occasionally launch Ramsleds which, if not shot down, will ram into the Railjack and deploy boarding parties of ground troops. ![]() ![]() If destroyed, any Tenno within will automatically be launched back into space on their Archwing. They can alternatively be disabled and/or commandeered by boarding and killing its crew and pilot from within. The crewships can be destroyed by either using Forward Artillery from within the Railjack, or by boarding and then destroying its reactor from within. ![]() Players encounter many different types of enemies including Fighters and Crewships, and players may also have side objectives, such as points of interest or abandoned derelicts, which can grant extra rewards if the mission is completed.Įnemy crewships can be boarded using the Archwing (including being launched from Archwing Slingshot facility within the Railjack). Players utilize their Railjack and Archwing to do a variety of tasks that vary based on faction type and region. Empyrean missions involve the Tenno fighting either Grineer or Corpus in the various proxima regions within the Empyrean star chart. For this reason alone, Bartender is an essential Mac utility that’s easy to recommend to anyone running a Mac. macOS should at least have a way to handle an overflowing menu bar. I feel a bit sad every time somebody asks me how to recover an icon that “disappeared behind the notch.” I still believe people should not have to download a third-party app to deal with Apple’s hardware and software decisions that lead to the notch and its tendency to swallow menu bar icons. You can choose any SF Symbol or emoji to use as the group icon. I decided here to group two sound-related icons into one (Neptunes and SoundSource). Although there is a bit of a delay, it works perfectly: the current track goes away when I press Pause and it returns to the menu bar as soon as I press Play. I told it to write an AppleScript that would return true only when music is playing. Even though I had no idea how to write an AppleScript condition, I was actually able to ask ChatGPT to do it for me. This, however, takes up a lot of valuable space, especially because the track title stays there even when playback is paused. ![]() As soon as I thought about it, I had lots of ideas for how to use it.įor example, I use Neptunes to display the title of what’s currently playing in Apple Music in the menu bar. Even better: it is now possible to use AppleScript to tell Bartender 5 which conditions need to be met to display a menu bar icon. Triggers are a smart and powerful Bartender feature that allows you to only show a menu bar icon when specific conditions are met. ![]() ![]() Instead of displaying your hidden icons in a floating bar by default, Bartender 5 will now let you click the menu bar to temporarily replace your permanent menu bar icons. |
