![]() As.numeric() will purge the leading zero as part of change. These string variable types can be easily converted into a numeric column or vector using the as.numeric() function above. Troubleshooting:Īt some point, you’re going to encounter situations where the encoded data has a leading zero. [Therefore, we have converted all character columns of the data frame into numeric. > a b c d myData2 NumericalData2 sapply(NumericalData2, class) Previously we worked with a single character variable, but now that you have some basic understanding of how numeric conversion works, I can extend the discussion to data frames that use multiple columns of characters. We can now also perform computational tasks on this data. ‘NumericalData’ are not enclosed in inverted commas hence verifying that theseĪre numeric values. It does not come as part of a package, rather it is a native command Not just for characters but anyĭata type, whenever you are converting to numeric, you can use the as.numeric()Ĭommand.

Hopefully this shows the utility of learning how to convert character string variables in your dataframe into a numeric value. Which delays finishing up your work and grabbing a beer. In essence, most R functions will attempt to add the two character strings together, generate an unexpected result, and immediately halt and catch fire.

![]() On the verge of death, Funamoto left a message. She moans at the snow-covered grave of her master. Heishiro Goken, the greatest martial artist of his time. We know the name of the opponent that Funamoto witnessed. unlike those days, she had the Battoujutsu technique that her teacher had bequeathed to her. Having lost someone she had lived with, Yukika felt the loneliness she had felt as a child slip back into her life. Until the end of his life, he gently and strictly taught Sesshoka the sword. The darkness of the Shinden Tsushima school, the art of Battoujutsu (swordsmanship) practiced by Funamoto, did not allow them to live quietly.įunamoto was wounded in a duel and eventually passed away. However, the times did not leave them alone. The two believed that they would live in secret, rejoicing in their bond. Her training became more and more advanced, and Yukika grew into a woman of both strength and beauty. It was a way to protect herself and to survive, but her talent blossomed. The new life she begins under the name of "Yukika" gradually melts her frozen heart.įunamoto began to teach Yukika his sword, the Battoujutsu. A young swordsman named Enmiya Funamoto called her a flower that bloomed in the snowfield. She ran out of strength under the cold, snowy sky, and met a man who introduced himself as "Enmiya Funamoto. Her relatives mistreated her, calling her an "ogre's daughter" because of her alien blood, and she finally ran away from home.īut the journey of a young girl does not last long. She was born on a ship from Portugal to Japan, and her parents died of illness without ever having set foot on Japanese soil. She never knew the warmth of her parents. She also grew up in despair and closed her mind. She was also raised in despair, and she, too, was subjected to violence, curiosity, and heartless words. However, she still stands dignifiedly under the eyes that are directed toward her.Įven she did not start out with this nobility. Here on the streets of western Japan, her figure is undeniably eye-catching. With snow-white skin, lustrous golden hair, and two azure pearls on her chiseled features, she is an undeniably eye-catching figure in the cityscapes of western Japan. Daichiha, who, in my opinion, has a strong image of Juju from the 2017 version of Magical Guru Guru! Since she did not participate in the previous SOULCALIBUR V, it has been a long time since her appearance, so I am sure there are many happy fans. Setsuuka " is a popular character who first appeared in SOULCALIBUR III and also appeared in SOULCALIBUR IV. ![]() When insight 3D works well, it makes a nice point cloud. You’ll save yourslef lots of vexation if you do that… If you’re fooling with point clouds, take the time and get to know CloudCompare well. More photos on the specific area of interest mean greater detail in the point cloud in that area….Use the targets to set your scale and then you can align the points in, say Cloud Compare or Meshlab. ![]() One of the ways around the detail issue is to use some targets as ground control points for the areas you want to focus on.and then do two captures…one of the larger area, and another one only on the specific area you’re interested in. They’ve replaced it with ReMake, which has a montly pricing structure similar to Pix4D’s drone package There’s a 250 photo limit now, so you can capture reallly good detail. the 70 photo limit meant you had to really plan your capture and it made it hard to use for large scenes. I’ve even started HDRing all of the photos I use for generating point clouds, regardless of whether or not it was overcast when I captured the images and I’ve found it helps.Ĭatch123’s been phased out, but it actualy did a great job for shiny objects like cars, for instance. I’ve done batch HDRs on the overcast photo sets and then re-run them and it improves the detail and reduces the noise. It took several days to process the scenes with VisualSFM, and 15-18 hours to process them with Pix4D. I used the same photos sets with VisualSFM and got the same sort of noise, so the takeway there is to avoid overcast days when you’re capturing an outdoor scene. It puts a lot of noise in the scenes that you can filter out and remove manually with Cloud Compare. The only problem I had was both were shot on overcast days, and the software has trouble with gray sky. I shot about 1200 images for each one and I surveyed a few points to use to set the scale. I used the full version to do an interstate higway interchange and an industrial accident scene. I’ve used it with terrestrial images and the results have been pretty cool and pretty detailed. Pix4D has a new monthly pay option for Drone captures that’s pretty affordable. Posted in 3d Printer hacks, digital cameras hacks Tagged 3d scanning, Agisoft PhotoScan, Autodesk 123D, Memento, Photogrammetry, Sebastion Setz Post navigation After all this work it appears that used his new powers to 3d print a giant decking screw. ![]() uses Agisoft Photoscan, but says Autodesk Memento and 123d Catch do pretty well too. Once the photos have been taken, they need to be run through a photogrammetry processor. This process repeats until multiple photos of the object have been taken. The Arduino rotates the platform a measured increment, and then using ’s very neat IR camera control library, snaps a photo. In order to precisely index the object, he built an indexing set-up with an Arduino and a stepper motor (housed in the, self proclaimed, most elegant of 3d printed enclosures). To get even lighting he used four adjustable LED lamps from Ikea. The background was handled by a 3d printed stand and some copier paper. A good set of images for photogrammetry are: in sharp focus, well lit, precisely indexed, and have a uniform background. ![]() Photogrammetry is a real word, and built himself a nice setup to take high-res 3d scans using it. ![]() Trap Sense: Starting at 3rd level, a barbarian and rogue gains a +1 bonus on Reflex saves made to avoid traps and a +1 dodge bonus to AC against attacks made by traps.Uncanny Dodge: At 2nd level for barbarians and 4th level for rogues, a character retains their Dexterity bonus to Armor Class (if any) even if they are caught flat-footed or struck by an invisible attacker.After rage expires, the barbarian becomes fatigued. Rage lasts for 3 + Constitution bonus (including bonus from rage) rounds. He temporarily gains a +4 bonus to Strength, a +4 bonus to Constitution, and a +2 morale bonus on Will saves, but he takes a -2 penalty to Armor Class.

The monkeyface may not change location, but it sure can change its diet: as juveniles, monkeyfaces are crustacean-eating carnivores, but they become herbivores once they reach a few inches in length. In fact, the monkeyface is so disinclined toward movement that it evolved accessory breathing organs that serve as lungs so that it can stay put while the tide has gone out, breathing air for up to 35 hours at a time. Monkeyface eels ( Cebidtichthys violaceus) range from Oregon to Baja California, but an individual monkeyface doesn’t wander farther than 15 feet from its preferred rock crevice in the intertidal zone. He monkeyface eel lives its life like it’s keeping a secret. Kirk Lombard prepares to fish the San Francisco shoreline using his poke pole. Lombard acknowledges that the details of his encounter with Cambodian Stan have faded some in the last two decades, which may explain why the tale is slightly different in each media re-telling.īut no matter the details of the encounter, there is always one nugget at the heart of the story: the monkeyface eel. He has posted a 5-minute musical ode to Cambodian Stan on YouTube. His infrequently used blog,, is a collection of fishing tidbits, self-promotion, and unusual musings on the state of the world. He is distractible, and in his unbridled enthusiasm sometimes interrupts his own outlandish anecdotes. ![]() He’s an athletic man, whose signature black-framed glasses have appeared on numerous magazine and newspaper covers. Lombard, a former wildlife inspector for the California Department of Fish and Wildlife who now runs a commercial fishing business and leads undeniably strange coastal walking tours, is by nature a dramatic character. ![]() He never saw his muse again, but over the next 18 years Lombard would achieve semi-fame as the “Sea Forager,” known to restaurants and the press as the poke-poling hunter of the monkeyface eel. The next day Lombard found a patch of bamboo growing near the San Francisco airport and chopped down a few poles. Shortly afterward Stan pulled out a cabezon – a large-headed sculpin – and that, Lombard says, is the moment he decided to abandon his rod and reel. Stan showed Lombard the metal hook at the end of the bamboo pole where he had skewered his bait, and plunged it into a water-filled cavity at the base of Squack Rock. “This” - he gestured at the 4-foot-long bamboo pole and out to the rocks below his feet - “is called poke poling.” Intrigued, he climbed down from Squack Rock to ask the man who he was and what he was up to. The man slid the stick between the cracks of the rocks, somehow hooking half a dozen fish in a matter of minutes. N an overcast afternoon in the fall of 1996, while casting his line from “Squack Rock,” a not-so-affectionately named craggy outcrop near Pescadero, Kirk Lombard paused to watch a skinny, middle-aged man in a beat-up wetsuit hop around the rocks with a bamboo stick.

That sounds good, but it’s a little vague. On the Hotspot Shield website, it says that it “doesn’t log any data that could be tied to you, shielding your identity and info from hackers and cyber predators.” Like most VPNs, Hotspot Shield says it has a “no logging” policy. If your VPN service is keeping logs of that data, then it could come back to bite you. Instead of your internet data going to your ISP, it goes to the VPN company. Using a VPN doesn’t automatically make you more secure. Here’s what we found out about Hotspot Shield. When we test VPNs, there are certain features we look for in relation to how secure VPNs are and how convenient they are to use. Moving on with our review, let’s talk about Hotspot Shield’s features. Hotspot Shield Features Hotspot Shield Privacy Policy Screenshot from Website 1 Unfortunately, the 2018 report was the last it ever published. That makes us feel a little bit better, although we wish the company had continued releasing these yearly reports. In addition, the same report showed that Hotspot Shield didn’t release any customer data in 20, despite receiving 92 and 79 requests, respectively. The last report it released showed that in 2018, the company received 56 requests for customer information, but that it didn’t release any data. Now, Hotspot Shield knows that the company’s location could raise doubts, so in recent years, it released transparency reports. Member countries of these alliances have laws that give governments the power to obtain consumer information from companies for purposes such as criminal investigation. is a founding member of the Five Eyes alliance and a part of the bigger Nine Eyes and 14 Eyes alliances of countries. laws, including laws that oblige the company to share customer data with the government whenever necessary. As a company in the U.S., Hotspot Shield is subject to U.S. One slight drawback of Hotspot Shield is its location. And not to spoil anything, but Hotspot Shield’s servers were blazing fast when we tested them. More servers mean less congestion, which often translates to better speeds. It has servers in most global regions such as North America, South America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa. It started in 2008 and now has over 1,800 servers in 80 different countries. Hotspot Shield is a VPN company based out of Redwood City, California. Hotspot Shield is a perfect example, with super-fast speeds during our upload and download speed tests.Ībout Hotspot Shield Selecting a Server in the Hotspot Shield App Total security doesn't have to sacrifice speed. Slow customer support for non-paying users: If you're using the free version or simply shopping around Hotspot Shield's website, there's no live chat or phone support option.Strict data retention laws: The United States is not the best place to base a VPN service in, given its membership in Five Eyes, Nine Eyes, and 14 Eyes.Only five simultaneous connections per account: Five just doesn't cut it for some people.Free option: Hotspot Shield offers a free version that is convenient but capped at 500 MB per day and has a two Mbps speed limit.Can access Netflix: This could change, but for now, Hotspot Shield works with Netflix and other video streaming websites.Speed: Hotspot Shield performed lightning fast during download and upload speed tests. ![]() Cleaning products, including: Multipurpose cleaner, bleach, glass cleaner, floor cleaner for linoleum/Pergo, Lysol (liquid and spray)/Pine sol, Clorox wipes, disposable gloves, tile/bathroom cleaner, sponges, toilet brushes.Garment plastic storage containers, clothing rack.Weighted blankets (for foster children).wide), paper bags, sandwich bags, plastic utensils, cups, napkins, bowls (for cereal/salad), paper plates Kitchen (for SERVE Family Shelter): ziploc bags (all sizes), plastic food wrap and aluminum foil (large: 18-24 in.Bathroom: Shower curtains/liners, bathtub drain stoppers, bathtub safety mats, towels.Laundry: Powdered Laundry Detergent (baby-safe), Detergent (especially detergent pods), fabric softener sheets.Please note: We cannot accept used car seats or items with recalls.outlet covers), new baby bottles, new sippy cups, baby monitors, strollers, wipes, diapers, cribs (must be new in the box and manufactured June 28, 2011, or later) Baby Items: Crib sheets & small blankets (new or gently used), baby-proofing safety items (i.e.At this time, please direct donations to our thrift store.Ĭlean clothes, shoes and accessories can also be donated to NVFS’ thrift store all proceeds benefit NVFS.
