![]() And so that's always dope and he opened right about the time that we did.Ī simple kale salad. What you'd see typically on tables here but in Mexico…I’ve talked about it a lot. He is the inverse of us and is Northwest in Mexico City. I have a friend in Mexico City that I'd like to bring up. Who’s on your wish list for collaboration? And snacks like olives and nuts and cheese and crackers, all of those were on the table. They're big beer drinkers in that part of the world. Their parties had lots of alcohol, playing cards, smoking at the table, multiple meals there at the big table and there's the decks of cards, beers of all sorts. And on the table the way they eat, going back to my dad's side of the family they were snackers and their parties were different. But when it comes to food and flavor I draw from Mexico and eastern Mediterranean. You can use the French technique in any way. ![]() …I tried to lean on past food influences and, technique wise, obviously French, but that's ubiquitous. And if you really take time to think about those things, there's a connection. I see a lot of ties in Mexican technique, flavors, chilies, bold, salty, preserving, all those things…A lot of Arabs ended up in Mexico flour tortillas comes from that region of the world, you know. London Plane was a little bit later than that first experience but…Matt Dillon, he's very in that zone and plays a lot with the eastern Mediterranean or African flavors. I spent a lot of impactful time cooking Eastern Mediterranean food…And I found a lot of similarities to Mexico there. How have your past experiences working in restaurants influenced what you’re doing here with Raiz for example, the Ace in LA, Delancey and London Plane in Seattle?Ī lot of it's in the food. You know, from across the room, somebody just looked at you and saw you walk in the door. Straight up… that could be love of any sort, but simple: a smile, a look, a welcoming gesture, you know, “Come on in, how's it going?” It’s acknowledgement. The challenge is to figure out what our cuisine is. Mexican food wasn't even what we know as Mexican food and what I grew up eating is like a different version….what was available to her, it's not how her mother cooked, you know? …it's been an interesting journey and it's a continual journey because now this is what I do. I think I need to figure out a lot of things for myself…my grandmother was a great cook but she was also subjected to her time and place. I think about this every day, all day long. Same with when you have to check the box on the government papers for your race and your background… I'm trying to break that stigma, a little bit, of what the food should be. And I've tried to find a better descriptor and there's not, so I think that's an interesting thing that I'm sure other restaurants and other cuisines deal with. That's why we don't even say Mexican food. Granted, we still serve burritos and stuff at other times and I know that can be confusing…īut yes, that is a bigger pressure… how do I define my cuisine and where does it fit into Mexican food if you will. People walk in the door and they expect that sometimes. And I don't want us to come off as that and we still deal with that. I don't mean in a bad way, but rice and beans on a plate, that’s just not us and I don't want that to be us. That’s the nicest and the easiest way to put it. That's part of the pressure for me… We don't want to be what older generations of Americans think Mexican food is. Is there a tension between what your relationship is now with Mexican cuisine and people's perception of what that means? I'm starting to rekindle this fire of figuring out what it means for us to be here and how we cook and how we do things… So that was kind of put on the back burner because of the pandemic… I’m back in the kitchen. The last eight years, I really learned to embrace the Mexican side of cuisine and what that means, and what it means to me, and what my experiences have been. And it still is to a certain extent… That gives me a broad stroke to, kind of, work within a larger umbrella, to have a little bit of freedom to say “this dish fits here because it fits here” … There’s nothing set in stone. I'm constantly learning things about myself and what my cuisine is… opening day of this place, I had no idea what it was… Northwest meets Mexico City or vice versa. I kind of just figured it would come to me and I would figure it out…Right now, if you asked me, I'd probably give you a little bit of a different answer. I'm very stubborn… And to be quite honest, I'd never really put a whole lot of thought into what my place would be. You describe the food at Raiz as, “Inspired by the vibrant food of Mexico City and placed here in our beautiful Pacific Northwest.” Was it always part of the vision to honor your heritage in some way?

Patrick Fu, managing partner at Sequoia Capital Global Equities, said his firm believes Netskope is the “unrivaled leader driving innovation” across cloud, data and network security.”īesides seeing 80 percent enterprise customer growth (25 percent of which is among the Fortune 100), the company says it has boosted its headcount by 50 percent with a focus on engineering and sales. Netskope CEO Sanjay Beri said that when he started the company in 2012, “it was clear that the cloud was changing everything, but few saw how it would disrupt security.” Netskope CEO and Founder Sanjay Beri Put more simply, Netskope’s Security Cloud offering aims to give companies visibility and real-time data and threat protection when accessing cloud services, websites and private apps from anywhere, on any device. Netskope describes itself as an alternative to “legacy, outdated security solutions that have failed to keep up with enterprises’ rapid adoption of new cloud and mobile technology, which have dissolved the ‘perimeter’ of a business’ network that traditional solutions were originally built for.” New investors Canada Pension Plan Investment Board and PSP Investments participated in its latest round, as well as all existing investors including Lightspeed Venture Partners (which led its Series F), Accel, Base Partners, ICONIQ Capital, Sapphire Ventures, Geodesic Capital and Social Capital. Netskope’s last funding–a $168.7 million Series F–closed in November 2018, propelling it to unicorn status.

By following step-by-step instructions you learn how to combine two parallel video layers using blending modes.Īnimated Overlay effects are also a new feature in Photoshop Elements 2022, though the Premiere Elements version doesn’t offer the AI assisted option of automatically placing the particles behind the main subject (as you can in Photoshop Elements using Adobe Sensei.) However there is the option to isolate a subject by drawing round it (though this tool isn’t highlighted when following the Animated Overlays guided edit.)Ī less flashy but perhaps more useful Guided Edit is Adjust Shadows & Highlights. The Animated Overlays Guided Edit also offers social media-friendly effects such as light leakage and lens flares. You can also introduce weather-related elements such as rain, fog and even bolts of lightning, which could be useful for drama productions. Premiere’s leaves are semi-transparent regardless of which blending mode you try. PowerDirector produces more solid looking leaves (possibly due to an embedded alpha channel). These Overlays help Premiere Elements catch up with rival app Cyberlink PowerDirector (which also enables you to add falling leaves to a clip). Premiere Elements 2022 adds two new Guided Edits to its repertoire – Animated Overlays and Adjust Shadows and Highlights. The Animated Overlays guided edit teaches you to how to add effects such as floating bubbles or falling Autumn leaves to your video footage. Here we’ve added lightning, fog and rain elements on separate layers. New weather themed animations help change the look and mood your clips. ![]() Step-by-step text instructions are accompanied by pop-up highlights around various buttons and panels, so you can quickly learn how to find and use the workspace’s key editing tools. Here 28 themed Guided Edits (three up from last year) walk you through the video production process – from the basic tasks of importing, re-ordering and trimming clips in the timeline to adding post-production graphical elements such as titles and captions. The novice video editor should head over to the Guided workspace. You can also add titles and transitions here. The Quick workspace is the perfect place to trim single clips or cut a few shots together in the timeline before sharing them as a sequence. If you’re familiar with Photoshop Elements then Premiere Elements will look similar thanks to the same three workspaces - Quick, Guided and Expert. There’s no noticeable difference to the light grey look of the Premiere Elements 2022 workspace compared with earlier incarnations, but this will be comforting to those already using version 2021 (or earlier). Here we’ve added light leakage and lens flare. You can combine animated overlays as multiple layers to produce more complex effects. ![]() So get ready to hear new meanings for words you thought you knew and prepare for heavy eye-rolling every time you’ll use your newly acquired lingo around teens.

Social media and the internet have further amplified its influence, resulting in a rapid evolution that incorporates words and phrases from various languages and cultures.Ĭurrently, slang remains an integral part of our daily language, used to express humor, irony, and social identity. In the 20th century, slang went mainstream through media and pop culture. For example, in the 19th century, the working class embraced slang as a way to differentiate themselves from the upper class. Then, slang gradually expanded its reach and became more widespread across different social classes and demographics. Its origins can be traced back to the early 16th century, when it was used as a specialized vocabulary employed by various groups, including criminals, sailors, and beggars. The use of slang has transformed significantly throughout history. This will help you figure out their importance and why all new generations have them. Why? ‘Cause we’re about to absolutely slay this list of popular slang words! But first, let’s talk briefly about the history behind English slang terms. Whether you millennial desperately trying to stay cool – like me –, a Gen X-er striving to understand the new generations, or a baby boomer who wants to be the GOAT (Greatest Of All Time) grandpa or grandma, you’ve come to the right place. Thus, it’s important to know English slang words because they bring us closer and while also enriching the language. In this situation, as Eric Partridge observes, slang changes its objective of being limited to a certain group to easing social intercourse and to reducing the solemnity, pomposity, and excessive seriousness of a conversation. For instance, almost every native English speaker knows that to be “filthy rich” doesn’t mean to be dirty, but to have a lot of money. Isn’t that great evidence of how creative people can be? Regardless of their social status or intentions.īut besides being understood only within a particular group, slang can also be general. Just think about how criminals started using slang so police or other people who are not in their crime circle would not understand what they are saying. It may be indecent, colorful, or obscene, but slang is a crucial part of any language. Praised be the mighty internet for slang dictionaries! Why is it important to learn English slang words? For example, the slang words and phrases we are going to talk about today are defining for two generations known as “millennials” and “gen z” – but mostly “gen z” because – let’s face it – today’s teenagers have come up with tons of new slang terms that even I, as a millennial, have trouble understanding. Popular English Slang Words and PhrasesĪccording to Oxford, “slang” is “a type of language consisting of words and phrases that are regarded as very informal, are more common in speech than writing, and are typically restricted to a particular context or group of people”.MHRA 'How About You', All Acronyms, 19 September 2023, Bluebook All Acronyms, How About You (Sep.

Especially if you need to share projects every day or if several people need to work on the same file.Īnother thing you can do with this vector drawing program is export the project as a JPG or PNG. They can also edit the vectors, which makes it perfect for working in teams as well. If you want to share the file with someone else, they can simply open the file and continue where you left off. ![]() The vector file will contain all the separate layers of any shapes or text you have included in your project. Unlike Adobe Photoshop, AI or SVG files are both the Adobe Illustrator project file and the final product. When it comes to Adobe Illustrator, AI, EPS, and SVG are among the common vector file extensions. The JPG or PNG are some of the file formats you get when you want to get the final form of the raster image you were working on. However, once the file is saved as a JPG or PNG, all the layers will be merged, and you cannot undo any changes. For example, if you work in a team and share Adobe Photoshop file exports daily, you can easily share the PSD file with them. They can even undo some of the changes that you have made, which can be very helpful at times. Anyone else with Adobe Photoshop can open the PSD file that you send them and continue working on that file right where you left off. However, with Adobe Photoshop, you have the option to save any project that is in progress as a PSD. Each of these lines is also called a vector path, and together they make up a vector object. For example, each vector in Adobe Illustrator is not a line composed of pixels but is created by two dots connected via a computer algorithm. Vector-based editing programs such as Adobe Illustrator use mathematical constructs to create beautiful vector graphics. These pixels are not visible when you look at it from afar but are visible once you zoom in to the necessary level. If you zoom in on an image on Adobe Photoshop, you will see how different individual pixels are combined to create that specific image, especially if you look at the edges of the image. What does this mean? It means that Adobe Photoshop uses millions of tiny squares of different colors to make up each image. Raster-based editing programs such as Adobe Photoshop use pixels to create images. What is the Difference Between Vector and Raster? Raster Graphics When comparing Adobe Illustrator with Adobe Photoshop, we first need to compare raster graphics with vector graphics.Īs we saw earlier, Adobe Illustrator is a vector-based editing software, while Adobe Photoshop is a raster-based editing software. Adobe Photoshop is mainly used to edit photos or modify already-created images or graphics. In March 1995, Adobe purchased the Photoshop rights for $34.5 million.Īt first, Photoshop was only available on Macintosh, but it became available on Microsoft Windows in 1993. In 1988, the Knoll brothers sold the distribution license to Adobe Systems Incorporated. However, since the name ImagePro was already taken at the time, Thomas decided to rename the program Photoshop. The name Photoshop was also created by the Knoll brothers even though Thomas planned to call it ImagePro at first. Unlike Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop was not created by Adobe but by two brothers in 1987 - Thomas and John Knoll. What is Adobe Photoshop?Īdobe Photoshop is a raster graphics editor and one of the most popular Adobe programs from the Adobe Family of Software. This tool is mainly used to create logos, cartoons, graphics, and fonts. The 1.0 version had Picasso as a code name. ![]() Adobe Inc started developing this vector-based editing software for Apple Macintosh back in 1985. Illustrator is an advanced vector graphics editor and design program. In this article, we have compiled some of the main differences between Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop to get a clearer view of which tool will be the best one for you, and whether you can replace any of these tools with other tools that you can use for free.īut first, let’s find out what Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop are. However, if you look at each graphics program in detail and find out each one's particular competencies, you will realize that they have many differences. ![]() but I'll save that for another blog entry.

![]() If you need help locating a good source we recommend checking google for wiring schematics for your vehicle.īelow is a list of common sources that typically only come on when the key comes on. You will want to locate an accessory power wire that is only powered when the vehicle is on. This will differ from vehicle to vehicle. Using the supplied red female quick disconnect, attach a lead of blue/grey wire to the prong on the pressure switch.įrom there, you will need to locate a good power source for this wire. Start by locating the supplied roll of blue or grey wire (doesn't matter which you use). If you connect this wire to the battery, the compressor could run overnight and drain your battery. You will connect this side of the pressure switch to a key-power-on source on the vehicle so that the compressor can only run when the vehicle is on. Now that our relay is wired up, you are now left with one side of the pressure switch to complete. This should be the last connection needed for the relay. Take the red lead from the compressor and connect it directly to pin 87 on your relay. Pin 30 is the easiest connection to complete with this setup. Slide the connector over pin 87, and crimp the exposed red wire in the connector. This connector will allow you to connect the 10ga red wire to the relay. Now, l ocate the neon green terminal connector in your electrical kit. Once the red wire has been routed back to the pressure switch, you can cut off any excess wire while still leaving a small amount of slack. You want to make sure you don't cut it too short. Do not cut your red wire until you have finished routing it back to the pressure switch. Route your red wire from the fuse holder back to the pressure switch. Go ahead and strip one end of the supplied red wire, and connect it into the opposite end of the yellow butt connector. The yellow butt connector will allow us to connect the fuse holder to our red wire, and complete the connection back to the pressure switch. The ring terminal can be used to connect the fuse holder to your positive battery terminal. The opposite end of the fuse holder will accept one of the yellow butt connectors included with the electrical connectors. Each end should now look like this:Īt this point, you will use the supplied ring terminal crimp connector on one side of this fuse holder. Using a set of wire strippers, strip each end of the holder and expose the copper leads. You can cut the wire where the dashed line is in the picture above. Go ahead and cut the fuse holder in the center to make two ends. *Do not install a fuse into the holder yet. Our fuse-holder is sent to you in a loop. You will also use the fuse holder here as well. For this connection, you will be using the red (10ga) wire that came with your kit. Pin 87 will connect to the positive terminal of our car battery. It only matters that this connection is made to one side of the pressure switch. It does not make a difference as to which lead or terminal you decide to connect this to. Pin 86 will connect to one of the leads/terminals on our pressure switch. *(Heavy gauge wire is not required for this connection) This terminal connector will simply slide over the pin on the relay, and you may crimp an exposed lead of 18ga wire into the connector. Alternatively, you can route this wire up to the negative terminal on the battery. This pin will get routed over to the frame of the vehicle as a ground. Pin 85 is a ground connection for the relay. We will use this connector for terminals 85 and 86. We will be using Female Quick Disconnects to complete these connections.

To distinguish between the two ends of the rivet, the original head is called the factory head and the deformed end is called the shop head or buck-tail.īecause there is effectively a head on each end of an installed rivet, it can support tension loads. In other words, the pounding or pulling creates a new "head" on the tail end by smashing the "tail" material flatter, resulting in a rivet that is roughly a dumbbell shape. On installation, the rivet is placed in a punched or drilled hole, and the tail is upset or bucked (i.e., deformed), so that it expands to about 1.5 times the original shaft diameter, holding the rivet in place. The end opposite the head is called the tail. Before being installed, a rivet consists of a smooth cylindrical shaft with a head on one end.
