12/20/2023 0 Comments Theory of weak central coherence![]() ![]() ![]() Some theorists and clinicians have therefore challenged the view of impoverished creativity in ASD. A significant challenge to this perceived lack of creativity is the enormous achievements that some people with ASD show in creative and scientific fields. There is substantial research evidence that almost all forms of imagination are impaired in autism including lack of pretend play, pragmatic language, comprehension and construction of narrative, theory of mind and experimental tests of creativity. Therefore, the prevalent view is that creativity and imaginative thought are extremely difficult or impossible for individuals with ASD. The classical portrait of autism is that of rigid, stereotyped behaviours, a preference for sameness and a resulting lack of imagination. Various explanations and theories have been put forward to account for creativity ranging from unconscious mechanisms, cognitive processes, special abilities and personal traits to links with genetic processes and psychopathology. ![]() Although there are no agreed definitions for creativity the formulation put forward by Griffiths “Creativity is a mental journey between ideas or concepts that involves either a novel route or a novel destination” (p.6) seems to fit the picture very well. In this chapter we contrast neuroscientific evidence from creativity research with models attempting to explain talent and creativity in ASD. Creativity is a multifactorial construct and neuroscience is only beginning to unravel some of the cognitive components involved in the creative process. Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) are neurodevelopmental conditions that are associated with an astonishing combination of cognitive strengths and weaknesses with a substantial minority of individuals displaying some exceptional creative abilities, reaching genius proportions in some rare cases. ![]()

Our testing and evaluation was done on a 15-inch Apple MacBook Pro running Windows 10. We also gave bonus points to the online backup services that let you mail in a hard drive full of data to start the process as well as those that send you a hard drive to restore your data. Upload speed also matters even though you only do your initial backup once, it can take days or even weeks if it’s several hundred gigabytes. We took several factors into consideration when testing the best cloud backup services: storage costs, ease of file restoration, computer-resource usage, unique features, ease of use and installation. How we test the best cloud backup services And Carbonite's appealing mobile apps are no longer available, with the company giving no timetable for their return. ![]() Multiple machines are supported on a single account, but there's no volume discount - each additional machine costs as much as the first. To get those functions, you'll have to trade up to the Plus or Premium plans, which have features similar to IDrive or Backblaze's basic plans but cost much more. (Carbonite has temporarily slashed prices by 30%, bringing costs a bit closer to those of its rivals.) It also has an intuitive user interface that shows you which files have been fully, partly or not backed up.īut you'd better read the fine print, as Carbonite doesn't automatically back up large files, external drives, or any kind of video file on its Basic pricing tier. Best cloud backup service for securityĬarbonite offers unlimited storage, which is always nice to have in one of the best cloud backup services. Read our full CrashPlan for Small Business review. CrashPlan for Small Business also consumes a fair amount of system resources during backups, but you can adjust the application settings to reduce that. The mobile apps have great security but are pretty bare-bones. ![]() What you won't get are the consumer-friendly features that made CrashPlan for Home so appealing, such as drive shipping and mobile-device backups. And you get unlimited backup space for unlimited devices as long as you're willing to pay $10 per month per computer. CrashPlan supports full-drive-image backups to local drives and backs up Linux/macOS-formatted networked drives. Its plan for small businesses retains that service's very fast upload and download speeds, and adds business-friendly features such as support for Red Hat and Ubuntu Linux and unlimited (if you want) retention of old versions of files.Īlmost everything is customizable, including frequency of backups, retention of deleted files, account security and where to download restored files. Top 3 best cloud backup solutionsĬrashPlan had the best cloud backup service for consumers until it quit the market in 2017. We’ve thoroughly tested and reviewed the best cloud backup services available today so that you can find the best one for your needs and workflow. Still though, combining local and cloud storage for backing up your data is a great idea, especially if you want to follow the 3-2-1 backup rule. While you might have considered picking up one of the best external hard drives as a local backup solution instead, a physical drive can be stolen or damaged in a flood or fire, leaving you with nothing. The best cloud backup services constantly copy data back and forth from your computer (or computers) to cloud servers elsewhere in the world which you can easily reach from anywhere with internet access. With one of these services, you don’t need to worry about data loss as you always have an extra copy of your most important files stored safely and securely in the cloud. Dealing with data loss is never fun but fortunately the best cloud backup solutions are here to help. ![]() 12/20/2023 0 Comments Black dyed eyes![]() ![]() Either way, the lightened eggs will take on much more dye/food colouring than the original brown eggs.

Cassettes spurred the spread of hip-hop and thrash metal, created a micro-economy for go-go in Washington DC, and they became (and in many cases remain) the preferred medium for lo-fi and experimental music. In the developing world, where major labels operated near-monopolies, they were a means to put music into circulation that held no commercial interest to the big companies, spurring the recognition of genres in the process (the Syrian singer Omar Souleyman began as one of the wedding singers whose sets were sold on cassette at stalls, before he was heard by western tape collectors and won an international audience). Unspooled by Rob Drew and High Bias by Marc Masters The format instilled fear of piracy in the music industry, yet did more than any prior invention to spread music around the world. Mixtapes, though, were just one way the cassette had a seismic impact on the music industry, as explored in two new books – Unspooled by Rob Drew and High Bias by Marc Masters. I’d sneak into the office at Boots in Slough, where I worked in the holidays, photocopy fragments of book covers and postcards to make a collage cover to wrap around the J-card insert, with the title on the spine – each one was numbered entry in a series called Never Say No to Perfect Popcorn – and then send to whichever beneficiary I felt most deserving. Mine were a succession of tapes of mid-80s indie and old psychedelia. And there was always some hip-hop that I thought the girls would like – A Tribe Called Quest.” “I knew a little bit about jazz, so I’d always put some jazz on. “I used to try to impress with a really wide variety of genres,” says Adrian Quesada of Black Pumas. ![]() 12/20/2023 0 Comments Tumi outlet sale![]() ![]() Even then, Tumi still releases other essential products like agendas and portfolios for the business-savvy travellers, umbrellas to face the wetter part of the globe, key fobs so you don’t lose your home key while travelling, and belts.

Our heroine Hilary is a plucky girl with a pet gargoyle who is the daughter of an admiral in the Augustan fleet. Every one is over-the-top and quirky in their own way. This is truly the funniest book I have read in years! The characters are engaging and sympathetic. Will Hilary find the treasure in time? Will she become a true pirate after all? And what will become of the gargoyle? To escape from a life of petticoats and politeness, Hilary answers a curious advertisement for a pirate crew and suddenly finds herself swept up in a seafaring adventure that may or may not involve a map without an X, a magical treasure that likely doesn't exist, a rogue governess who insists on propriety, a crew of misfit scallywags, and the most treacherous - and unexpected - villain on the High Seas. But Hilary and her dearest friend, the gargoyle, have no use for such frivolous lessons - they are pirates! (Or very nearly.) Girls belong at Miss Pimm's Finishing School for Delicate Ladies, learning to waltz, faint, and curtsy. There's only one problem: The Very Nearly Honorable League of Pirates refuses to let any girl join their ranks of scourges and scallywags. She particularly enjoys defying authority, and she already owns a rather pointy sword. She can tie a knot faster than a fleet of sailors. Hilary Westfield has always dreamed of being a pirate.

If you are with your family (as I was) I don’t recommend as your kids will not get any sleep and drinking is paramount. So if you love partying and noise this is definitely the place for you. Even after the party ended the sound from the bar and restaurant filtered up through atrium level (think smaller Embassy Suites). No offer to move me to another room or apology or offer to accommodate me. All I was told is when the private party was expected to end. I contacted front desk and there was no concern for my complaint. From the moment I entered my room until 9pm there was loud partying, music and chatter. I wanted to use the pool and it was closed (not indicated on website) for the season. I requested a checkin of 2pm (part of my benefits as cardholder) yet my key wasn’t available until after 4pm. ![]() This hotel is overpriced for the type of service and ambiance.

I was dissatisfied with my job at the time for not using many skills. And honestly at one point that's what I NEEDED. I think when you first start out as a nurse you think you HAVE to work in the hospital and be challenged. Or I've thought 4 10 hr shifts during the day would be nice.
