Audio book production11/17/2023 ![]() Each audition recording is usually about 3-5 minutes long, or about 2-3 pages.Ĭortes notes that there has been an industry focus on expanding the talent pool of narrators to better reflect the growing diversity of authors and books being published. ![]() From there, they will narrow it down to about 5-7 names, have them record a reading from the actual book, then send those over to the person or persons making the final call-usually the author or publisher. ![]() Scribe has a searchable database of 3000 narrators, where the producers can enter their criteria for the project, then listen to audio samples previously recorded by the resulting narrators. Once they’ve done all their homework, then it’s time to gather auditions. Then the audiobook producer does a deep dive into the book to find out any missing pieces. For nonfiction, Guillot says the producer will check if the author wants a narrator with a similar voice to the author or do they want something different? For example, if the author isn’t reading their own book, they probably want someone with a similar quality and background rather than say, a narrator who is decades older and with an entirely different accent. Maybe they need someone who is really good with kids’ voices.įor fiction, Guillot says the aim is typically to match the narrator’s voice to the character(s) in the book. Initially, the producer wants to get a feel for what qualities the author and/or executive director is looking for in a narrator, such as age, gender, and tone. We’re going on an adventure into the world of audiobook production! The casting processĮvery audiobook begins with casting. But I’ve always been curious about the behind the scenes journey of making an audiobook and wanted to learn more.Thanks to illuminating chats with Jeff Guillot, Head of Audiobooks at Scribe Media, and Amber Cortes, Publicist at Macmillan Audio, I was able to learn about the whole process, from start to finish. With my former job as a Quality Control Editor for audiobooks, I had some insight into a small but important part of the process. Have you ever wondered how audiobooks get made?

Aladin and laura pregnant11/16/2023 ![]() She and Aladin are expecting their first child together. Is it really possible that she could be pregnant?īased on what Laura has said on social media, it is true. After all, the popular phrase is “bun in the oven” and on top of that, she’s in her 50s. Laura announced that she had a “muffin in the oven.”Īt first, 90 Day Fiance fans speculated that she was playing around. When it was really starting to look like things were over between Laura and Aladin, she dropped a bombshell on social media. That right there should have us reporting that the two split up, but it doesn’t seem that’s the case. It got so uncomfortable that Avery reportedly blocked him from continuing to message her. It was reported that Aladin was paying a lot of compliments to Avery Mills of Before the 90 Days recently, and while some thought it wasn’t a big deal to tell someone they look nice, it was made clear that he was flirting pretty hard with her. Plus, another Tell All spoiler claims that Aladin has been hitting on other women. ![]() ![]() We would be remiss not to mention that time that Laura called Aladin disgusting on social media, claiming that he was cheating on her with other women. She’s also ranted about the 90 Day Fiance viewers who aren’t respectful of their marriage and who have filled up Aladin’s DMs because they think her husband is hot. However, Aladin has since said he just took them down because of the mean things people were saying about Laura. When Aladin took down all of Laura’s photos, rumors that the couple had split started rumbling even louder. 90 Day Fiance viewers thought Aladin and Laura split Get updates on the latest posts and more from Monsters and Critics straight to your inbox. Subscribe to our 90 Day Fiancé newsletter! An even more explosive Tell All spoiler claims that not only were they separated but that Aladin asked Laura for a divorce in front of the cameras. There have been claims that the pair were split up at the filming of the Tell All. Well, consequences from the government anyway, as Laura made it clear that she was to be his one and only wife.įast forward to the 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way Tell All. Imagine Laura’s surprise when she also learned that in Qatar, polygamy is legal and Aladin could take up to three wives without consequences. They seem to disagree on whether his jiggy jiggy alone is enough to satisfy her. The even bigger issue is that Aladin didn’t see why Laura needed the extra help. In his country, he explained, sex toys were forbidden. Things definitely weren’t always smooth between the two and Aladin took huge offense when Laura introduced him to her purple vibrator. The 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way couple met online and Laura traveled all the way to Qatar to be with her much younger man. There’s been a lot of chatter lately about Laura and Aladin Jallali.

Vah naboris dungeon tail chest11/16/2023 ![]() ![]() This is easier to do from a higher elevation as opposed to the ground floor.ĭuring the second part of the second phase, it is recommended to drop back down to the bottom area. Lift it up and push it towards Thunderblight Ganon to cause damage. Then use your Magnesis to grab one to the stakes before it gets destroyed. Right when it tosses the stakes into the ground, run away so you aren't immediately near any of them. You want to use your Magnesis ability here. The second phase of the battle involves Thunderblight Ganon dropping several stakes into the ground and then electrifying them, along with a small area right around them. Repeat this method until half its health is gone. Equip your best one or two-handed weapon to do the most damage. If you time it right, you can perform a Flurry Rush. The best method to attack him during this phase is to hold out your shield, and just before it's about to attack you, do a backflip. It'll then deliver a vicious sword slash. Its other attack involves him quickly moving around the room, warping to three spots in a matter of a second, with the third spot being right next to Link. The first will have him launch some electric balls at you and these can be easily avoided by just moving to the side. Thunderblight Ganon has two attacks during this initial phase. In the EX Champion Urbosa's Song DLC quest, Thunderblight Ganon is fought again with limited equipment in the Illusory Realm.ĭuring the first phase of the battle, it is recommended to stay on the bottom floor where there is the most space to work with. Due to its blinding speed, Thunderblight Ganon is the most difficult Blight to encounter and one of the most difficult bosses in the game. If Link doesn't fight Thunderblight Ganon inside of Vah Naboris, he will later encounter the boss in the Sanctum inside of Hyrule Castle, where he will be the last Blight that Link faces there. Thunderblight Ganon killed Urbosa during the Great Calamity, eventually serving as boss of the dungeon when Link came to free it of Ganon's control 100 years later.

Boinc projects and cannabinoids11/16/2023 decreases the amount of BOINC credits awarded per USD on a regular basis sends the rest of the money for projects which apply for itĤ. keeps the 12% of the donated money for itselfģ. gives 130 million BOINC credits for each USD its users donate for the projectĢ. What if someone starts a BOINC project, which does the following:ġ. It's not as if the credits are worth anything, so until they do, it doesn't really matter to the powers that be.įunny, how it went from "measuring" contributed flops to meaning nothing :DĪnyways, as Retvari Zoltan says on gpugrid: That still puts it (if the methodology stands up) on a respectable par with ~#11 on - but no way is Bitcoin Utopia the second-most powerful supercomputer in the world, as its daily credit output would have you believe. If we leave out those three big integer projects, then BOINC's overall floating-point computing power comes out at 4.0 - 4.2 PetaFlops. I could see no sign of any large-scale input from the sort of Uppercase project that Jord describes. SETI and Einstein have large numbers of computers attached: GPUGrid certainly does a lot of floating point maths, but I think rather overstate the work done by their credit awards. ![]() Other high-paying projects are SETI, Einstein, and GPUGrid. Looking in particular at the 'Top 100' page, I thing we can identify visually that Collatz, DRTG and PrimeGrid are other high-paying integer math projects (I'm not sure why DRTG shows so strongly - it seems to have been offline for the last couple of months). Strip out that one project (which seems to be accounting for 80% of all credit awarded, these days), and the residual figure is a much more consistent 6.8 PetaFlops across all three sites - and pretty close to the 6.99 PetaFlops we started with here. At the time I collected the figures, the grand total computing power was reported to be between 13 PetaFlops and 32 PetaFlops on the different sites, using that RAC -> GFlops reverse calculation.īut all of that was wildly different interpretations of the Bitcoin Utopia phenomenon, which the three sites were displaying as 6.2, 18.1, and 25.3 PetaFlops respectively. The three sites all collect and aggregate their data at different times of the day, and monitor a different number of projects (between 67 and 145). I looked at three of the major statistics sites: BOINCstats (which tends to be regarded as authoritative by David Anderson) BOINC Combined Statistics (the in-house stats site - the power behind those 'Projects in which you are participating' lists on your account pages at BOINC projects) and Free-DC (the source of the graphs on BOINC's Top 100 multi-project BOINC participants page). Well, since I'm helping to look at various aspects of the credit system at the moment, I thought I'd have a scout around. All of those might be diluting the value Richard points out, I don't know.Īll of those might be diluting the value Richard points out, I don't know. There have been fan-based projects in the past, there are probably still fan-based projects this moment, that run nothing but Uppercase and give out credit for that. ![]() Now to give you an idea: even you can start a project today that pays twelve trillion credit per task done on the Uppercase application included in the package. Everything is open source, everything can be hacked, edited, reprogrammed, adjusted, tinkered with to the hearts content of the project administrator. ![]() Aside from perhaps not being included in the Projects List. Not much there can be done to force a project to follow the will of BOINC development, while users can en-masse say that they leave the place. Maybe, but then that's normally done by the users rather than the BOINC development team, for the simple reason of what to do when they would request that a project follow their credit sampling, and the project says "no"? I think a more reasonable request would be to have the project look at their credit distribution, is it as skewed for non-ASIC devices?

There is no beamer kind of car and the term is always used for a motorcycle (Photo Source: pitstopweekly) ConclusionĪ beamer car is always a motorcycle and if anyone uses beamer for a car, he is using the wrong slang. However, the second interpretation seems truer than the first one as per all the discussion with BMW itself. According to the first one, the black circle of the logo depicts a rotating propeller with white or silver blades for and its relation to the blue sky.Īnother interpretation shows the official flag of Bavaria where the BMW began the production. As per the controversies, the logo holds two different interpretations. Know more about cars by visiting here Industry Knowledge.īMW logo represents two colors: white and blue inside a circle.
