![]() In all fairness, although I’ve learned more of its features, my comfort level hasn’t changed since my first few mixes on it. Watch Liam O'Mullane tear it up on Traktor Kontrol S5:Īlthough I’ve had my S5 for over a week now, I had a good 20–30 minutes play with it on a stand at this year’s BPM show. The S5, S8 and D2 can all be used without any reference to the laptop’s display and better still, the display is concise and compact, so easier to read and navigate. The DJ can’t keep the same amount of audience reading going as those who work on say CDJs of vinyl and the remedy of positioning the laptop on a stand in front just means the audience get to see less DJ and more glowing fruit logo for their money. It’s becoming a ‘thing’ for laptop DJs to have a sideways glance through their sets these days due to where their laptop is positioned and it’s not a great look. The S5 sports the same impressive hi-res displays as I first saw on the S8 which is a blessing for DJs and the audience alike. As mentioned the S8 is big and personally I’m more interested in the portable side of controllers so the new S5 is very exciting. Since then the Stem format has been released which also works with four channels except these are all relevant to the same original song, e.g., drums, bass, synths and vocals. ![]() After being shocked at how massive it was and that it didn’t have platters or pitch sliders, I quickly started to see the potential of how its four small faders aligned with controlling the four audio channels of Remix decks and the creative opportunities it could create. It was over a year ago that I first played with the then beta version of NI’s S8 standalone mixer and controller. ![]()

The program currently has almost all the spacefaring countries, except China and Russia. However, India took its time to join the Artemis Accords, which were kicked off in October 2020 with seven founding member nations, including the U.S., U.K., Australia, Canada and Japan, possibly to give its own ecosystem some time to better align with the international agreement’s ambitions. The spacefaring country has also attracted global investments and introduced regulatory changes to sketch out public-private collaboration. It is a home to over a hundred startups developing launch vehicles, satellites and space situational awareness infrastructure. India has emerged as the next big market for space missions. The leader is currently on his official trip to the U.S. “Today, we have taken a giant leap in our space cooperation by deciding to join Artemis Accords,” Modi said while addressing a joint press conference with President Joe Biden in the White House. ![]() On Thursday, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced that the South Asian nation is joining the non-biding exploration program. India has finally agreed to join the Artemis Accords, a NASA-led initiative to work together with other countries on space exploration and make a return to the moon, after months of silence about joining the program’s 26 other signatories. ![]() ![]() ![]() Heart-shaped glossy green leaves turn yellow in fall.

Genus name comes from the Greek word kerkis meaning "weaver's shuttle" in reference to the resemblance of each seed pod to a weaver's shuttle. Seventeenth century atlas of the World by Nicholas Visscher. Pendulous, flat, bean-like, seed pods (to 5” long) mature in late summer. At their best, leaves will turn a respectable yellow in fall. Rounded, leathery, heart-shaped green leaves (to 5" long) are attractive during the growing season. Clusters of tiny, rose-purple, pea-like flowers bloom profusely on the stems and branches for 2-3 weeks in early spring (March-April) before the foliage emerges. Notwithstanding these differences, the two species can sometimes be difficult to distinguish. It is somewhat similar in appearance to Cercis canadensis which is native to eastern and central North America, except Chinese redbud has larger rose-purple flowers, glossier leaves, longer seed pods, shorter mature height, variable but usually less attractive fall color and lesser winter cold hardiness. it usually grows much smaller as an open, densely branched, multi-stemmed shrub or small tree to 8-15' tall. This tree will grow to as much as 50' tall in its native habitat, but in cultivation in the U.S. Please study image carefully.Cercis chinensis, commonly called Chinese redbud, is native to woodlands, thickets and slopes in central to southern China.

In cases where there is a limited view of the retina due to overlying hemorrhage, ophthalmic ultrasound may be required to aid in diagnosing a retinal tear. There is no way to predict who might develop a retinal tear or when it might occur.Ī thorough and timely examination by a retina specialist using scleral depression (applying slight pressure to the eye) and/or a 3-mirror lens is the most important step in diagnosing a retinal tear.

At birth, this gel is attached to the retina, but as we age, the gel separates from the retina creating a posterior vitreous detachment or PVD. The vitreous is a clear gel-like substance that fills in the back cavity of the eye which is lined by the retina. However, in some cases, a retinal tear may not manifest any noticeable symptoms. If there is associated vitreous hemorrhage (bleeding in the clear cavity of the eye) or retinal detachment, additional symptoms can include blurred vision or a shadow as if curtains are closing in from the peripheral (side) vision. Flashes of light ( Photopsia) are another common symptom. This can have the appearance of someone shaking pepper in your vision.

The Israeli brand Dodo Bar Or’s first collection, which took the print and put it on playsuits and blouses, has been a favourite on Instagram since it was released in 2016. While some designs riffing on the keffiyeh have encountered enough mainstream protest to be withdrawn, such as a Topshop “festival-ready scarf” playsuit in 2017 and an Urban Outfitters “anti-war woven scarf” in 2007, many others have found their way on to lists of the best dresses in recent summers, as well as being worn by Instagram influencers such as Lucy Williams and Camille Charrière.
