![]() While much of the Apple community conforms into a single file line into AppStore awaits on standby for their delousing and frontal lobotomy, I’m gonna stay in Snow Leopard indefinitely as I see no benefit to surfing the current OS wave and upgrading for update sake. Really a sad day for all desktops as we welcome in DULL-AS-DISHWATER UE and UI. This is a nice gesture from you all at Panic. Thanks for reading! If you have any questions, please contact CandyBar updated for 10.8, but changing system icons won’t work forever, so CandyBar is now free and unsupported - and may turn into something new at The Iconfactory later. If you bought CandyBar from us, you will of course be considered if something new shows up. They’ve got some thoughts on CandyBar’s future, and where they might take it from here. We’re handing the reins of CandyBar over to our friends at The Iconfactory. So where does CandyBar go from here? Well, there’s the other half of the app: the convenient icon organizer, and Quick Drop icon changer, that many of us use often. If interested, e-mail the Iconfactory.) Finally, CandyBar heads to The Iconfactory. (Also, if you bought CandyBar from us in July or so, we will refund you. Then, here’s a serial number everyone can use:Įven if technically unsupported, CandyBar is still super cool. We hope you enjoy it. That said, being CandyBar fans, we’ll strive to keep CandyBar up-to-date with minor 10.8 releases, so you can keep using it for the foreseeable future! But, if something major changes, on the level of the Dock changes in 10.8, we can’t guarantee compatibility.įirst, here’s the latest build of the app: Since we’re unsure about the long-term future of changing system icons, we’re not comfortable charging money for CandyBar, and we’re also not comfortable simply making it disappear, instead we’re going to make the current CandyBar free - but unsupported. So, what do we do? Now free, and unsupported. It seems clear to us that there will undoubtedly come a time (soon?) when CandyBar can no longer customize system icons at all. (You can still customize the indicator lights!) Also, CandyBar still can’t change the internal icons of Mac App Store apps, due to code signing.ĬandyBar, although simply changing files on disk, has always fallen into a slightly-uncomfortable-for-us grey area of existence. This is due to a difference in color calibrations on different computers, this is normal & does not affect the quality of the finished product.A quick update on CandyBar! Updated for 10.8.įirst, we’ve updated CandyBar for Mac OS X 10.8! You can now customize the 10.8 system icons. Just launch the app and click the big “Update” button to get the latest IconData.īut there’s a catch, or two: in Mountain Lion, Apple changed how the Dock is rendered, so it’s no longer possible to customize the Dock’s look.

![]() ![]() Lap 2 strolls around a built-up Chinatown market before a ramp that shoots past the Merlion and Marina Bay and onto a rampway above the Gardens by the Bay attraction. Racers drive through the infinity pool and then glide down through various speed rings. It is reminiscent of the cannon from DK Mountain. A great example of this is the cannon which boosts racers to the top of the Marina Bay Sands hotel. The variety of track elements in Singapore Speedway makes it far more interesting than Amsterdam Drift. A busy built-up city, complete with integrating well known tourist attractions into the course such as racers flying off the top of the Marina Bay Sands hotel through the bustling markets and streets. Singapore, a city famous for its night time Formula 1 race is a spectacle to behold and Singapore Speedway is certainly no different. Sticking with Mario Kart Tour courses, there are two more, this time representing Asian capitals, Singapore and Bangkok. ![]() Overall, this is a fun track with good twists and turns, but it does feel devoid of obstacle-based interactions, and more could have been done with the trams for example, such as racing on the platforms or stations. Lap 2 brings racers back into the city but this time driving underwater through the canals and lap 3 is a bit of a combination of lap 1 and lap 2. Instead, they feature in the background, the same with the tulips, which are decorative displays rather than on track obstacles. ![]() The first lap takes racers out of the city scape to race around tulip fields and windmills, although it is a shame that the windmills weren't utilised as a racing obstacle of sorts. Tulips, windmills, trams and canals - everything that represents Amsterdam, right? Like all other Mario Kart Tour tracks, Amsterdam Drift changes on each lap to open up slightly differing pathways. First up is Amsterdam Drift, and these courses like to take stereotypical themes from each of the countries they represent. Wave 4 really leans quite strongly on including courses from Tour, particularly courses based on worldwide cities. As it has been said before, these courses feel like new courses for many, particularly for any players not playing Mario Kart Tour. Wave 1, 2 and 3 were all impressive due to the inclusion of courses from Mario Kart Tour, which certainly felt quite fresh to have a console counter-part. Let's hope that Wave 5 and Wave 6 add in characters like Diddy, but also consider other characters such R.O.B and Petey Piranha. Birdo's inclusion has opened up another 5 slots on the character select screen, which are just question marks at the moment, but that is not to say Nintendo will stop at 5. The character roster is already pretty large, standing at 42 characters, plus Mii's, and there are only a few characters that aren't in the base game from previous titles, although it is criminal that Diddy Kong is still missing from the current line-up. ![]() Nintendo have also left the idea open that more characters from past Mario Kart titles will return, although how many and which characters have not been explicitly stated. Wave 4 is the first wave that has added a returning character to the roster, with Birdo now available to pick from the character select screen. ![]() ![]() ![]() Connect with like-minded creative people.Access to a private (secret) Facebook Group.Deepen your understanding of and learn more about colour & colour theory.Create beautiful paintings inspired by inspiring people and worldly wonders.Download all class materials to your machine, keep them forever.These over-arching colour theory lessons will support the rest of the course.Ĭlick here to download the full class schedule with class descriptions.

I’ve invited another great bunch of my wonderful art friends who are as excited as I am to get this started! I think it’s important that we compensate for this negativity bias and also look at how amazing the human spirit is, how beautiful this world and its animals is, the love, compassion, creativity, ingenuity, courage and heroism that fills up this world! I wanted this course to have a focus on the human spirit and the beauty of the world because there is a lot of difficult/ challenging stuff happening right now and our negativity bias can make it seem that everything is all bad. I’m not someone who denies shadow and painful feelings at all, but, I do know that (with the help of the media that tends to focus on disasters and sad stories) as humans we have a tendency to lean towards the negative (the negativity bias is a thing, read about it here) and it can make it feel like all ‘the good and beautiful’ pales in comparison. We’ll make art, explore colour theory in depth, learn how to use colour efficiently while at the same time creating beautiful paintings and learning about the beauty of the world and the amazing humans that live in it. I’m so excited about this brand new course, we ran it for the first time last year and it was such a great success that we wanted to run it again, yay!

The site has hosted visitors and volunteers from local schools, community groups, and conservation organizations. This group will provide support for STPAL’s mission related activities at the preserve. In 2020 the Friends of Bald Mountain Creek Nature Preserve was successfully launched. This project will be completed in early 2023. In partnership with the Audubon Society, the USDA, and NC Forestry a project has begun to establish a habitat zone for migratory birds with a specific focus on the threatened Golden Wing Warbler. Upon completion of the 3 phases this site will likely become a regionally significant climbing resource. The boulders are particularly well suited based on their locations, sizes, variety, and mineral composition. Bald Mountain provides superb views towards the north including: Olancha Peak. It is part of the Kern Plateau which rises between the North and South Forks of the Wild and Scenic Kern River. To date there have been 6 distinct bouldering areas inventoried with each having at least 50 problems (routes). Bald Mountain is in the Sequoia National Forest on the northern boundary of the Domeland Wilderness and it is the site of a manned fire lookout. In partnership with the Carolina Climbers Coalition a 3 phase project has begun to facilitate bouldering and other climbing activities. Ultimately additional trails will be built that are optimized for mountain bike usage. There is about another 4 miles to be restored in 2021. The restoration is for the purposes of improving public hiking use and for stream protection. In 2020 STPAL invested over $17,000 as a phase 1 the trail system restoration process. Bald Mountain provides one of the best views of the Indian Peaks in the area, so youll definitely want to remember to bring your camera.

Their first mission was to rendezvous with a R'naari medical vessel inside R'naari Imperial Territory this meeting was interrupted, however, when Messenger responded to a distress call of a Klingon ship. In January of 2375, command of the restored Messenger was taken by Dominic Murphy, a survivor of the First Battle of Chin'toka. Extensive damage was sustained on the ship's starboard side and at the stern, leaving her in drydock for two months undergoing repairs. A short but heated battle took the life of Captain Devonshire, and several crewmembers - including the XO and chief engineer - were critically wounded. Just a month before the first year's end saw Messenger's luck reach its own.

Then I generated emails for every contact with that tag directly from Bus圜ontacts. I first assigned a special tag to all the people I wanted to send the article. Recently I disseminated a newly published article using Bus圜ontacts. I have already used Bus圜ontacts to organise a workshop and to map academic disciplines in an emerging network. The Tags work much smoother than Groups in Contacts because (a) you can add them while editing a card without reaching your mouse and (b) each card shows all its Tags (have you ever wondered to which Groups your particular contact card belongs?). customisable fields, colour-coded tags, and displaying email correspondence with a particular contact.

That treasure trove of technology and experience saved us years of development time and has resulted in a very robust product. We have now spent 1.5 years building Bus圜ontacts and are fortunate in that we were able to leverage much of the syncing technology in Bus圜al. It took us five years of building and refining Bus圜al before we reached a point where we felt we could afford to invest in a second product.

From our first demo of Bus圜al, people have been begging us to build a contact manager app. Nearly everyone is frustrated with the shortcomings of OS X Contacts. In 2007, Dave and I returned to our roots and formed BusyMac to once again build the best calendar app for the Mac, Bus圜al. That was over 20 years ago – when System 7 was shiny and new, and long before OS X or iCal existed. ![]() In the early 1990s Dave Riggle and I teamed up at the original Now Software to create Now Up-to-Date, which became the best selling calendar app on the Mac.
