![]() In our opinion, the fund raise not just allayed concerns over the adequacy of capital at Vimeo, but also offered a deep market perspective to IAC’s management that Vimeo was capable of surviving as a stand-alone unit. Given the robust investor interest, IAC was able to raise capital for Vimeo at substantially higher valuations compared to IAC. Vimeo - Total Revenue and Subscribers (YOY Growth) Spin-Off Research Although management acknowledged that 3Q20 positive adjusted EBITDA was more a result of lower product development and marketing costs, we reckon that Vimeo will continue to improve its profitability going forward. The recurring SaaS subscription revenue model and recent trends of growth in bookings outpacing that of revenues, offer solid revenue visibility to Vimeo. Prior to the pandemic, the momentum in Vimeo’s organic bookings growth (1Q19: +11%, 4Q19: +27%) reflected expansion of customer base to include even small businesses. ![]() During the COVID 19 pandemic Vimeo’s subscriber and top-line growth skyrocketed amidst accelerated demand for its video creation, editing and storage software as well as for its live streaming platform. In the recent past, Vimeo has been able to generate robust revenue growth, improve profitability and raise capital, thereby paving the way for a potential spin-off, in our view. ![]() We believe that management wanted Vimeo to either improve its performance or have enough capital for sustainable growth investments as a stand-alone entity. In the past, any consideration of Vimeo’s spin-off was hampered by concerns over scale and profitability, especially since it was a money-losing unit. The acquisitions of Livestream (live category), Magisto (creation) and VHX (Over-the-top) expanded Vimeo’s offerings and scale. In 2006, IAC acquired Vimeo as part of a deal to purchase comedy website CollegeHumor. Later, on July 1, 2020, IAC completed the spinoff of Match Group from the remaining businesses of IAC.Īs part of its strategy, IAC acquires small online companies and grows them through a series of acquisitions, followed by their spin-off. At the IPO price of $12.00 per share, Match Group raised net proceeds of $460 million, which was used to repay indebtedness it owed to IAC. Match Group offered 38.3 million shares in the IPO. No cash balance or cash flow is included in the calculation.IAC/InterActiveCorp Key Data Spin-Off ResearchĮarlier, on November 19, 2015, IAC completed the initial public offering of Match Group, Inc, creating the 8th public company.

![]() The developers often mention where to look on their website, but there are a few good places to start: There’s no standard location for accessing GIMP plugins, which is a bit frustrating since it can make them hard to find. The last and final trick is to actually locate your plugin in order to use it. GIMP checks the folders in the Plug-ins folder list during its startup phase, and it should immediately detect the new files that we added and load them. With all that complete, close down GIMP and open it again. Just don’t tell GIMP to check too many different folders, as that might eventually make GIMP launch much more slowly. Then you just tell GIMP to check that folder for plugins as well during the startup process. If you want to skip this process in the future, you could always create a folder on your desktop named My Plugins or something like that, and extract all your plugin files there. ![]() Streamlining the GIMP Plugin Install Process scm extension, it’s actually a script created in the Script-Fu scripting language that GIMP uses, and it needs to go in a different folder – just select the Scripts folder instead of the Plug-ins folder from the list. Some plugin installers put their plugin directly into the main GIMP installation folder, but it’s possible that they may get overwritten during a future GIMP update so it’s arguably best practice to install them in your user profile’s folder, but you can decide which you’d rather use.Ĭopy or extract your plugin files directly into your chosen folder, and you’re almost done! If you just want to get going with your plugin you can go ahead to step 3, but there are some other useful things to know for the future if you’re interested. A new window will open in your operating system’s file manager, showing the location of the selected plugin folder. Select the folder you want to use, and click the small file cabinet icon in the upper right Show location in the file manager. By default, you’ll see two folders listed: your user profile folder, and the system installation folder. Select Plug-ins from the new list, and you’ll see the right pane update with all the information about the folders GIMP checks for plugins. The GIMP Plug-in Folders section of the Preferences window In the left pane, scroll down until you locate the Folders section, and click the small + icon to expand it. Open GIMP, and then open the Preferences window. Before we can do that we’ll have to find it, but they’re often buried in deep nests of folders – but there’s a simple trick to find it and open it all at once. Once you’ve got your plugin downloaded from a safe and trustworthy source, the next step is to get it into the GIMP plugins folder. They provide actually useful functionality that will help your editing processes, although there are a few sillier plugins added just for fun as well! Step 2: The GIMP Plugins Folder Of course, if you’re not sure where to start your search, you should take a look at the list of the best GIMP plugins that I compiled. This step is actually pretty simple, and maybe it doesn’t even deserve to be a step on its own, but it gives me a quick chance to remind you to only download your free software from official sources! GitHub and Sourceforge are great resources, but developers use their own sites too. Step 3: Restart GIMP and Locate Plugins.Streamlining the GIMP Plugin Install Process.I know stencilling is a potential option of achieving something like this effect but it won’t include any shades it will just be one shade of a specific color + white.Ĭan anyone suggest a method as simple as the video tutorial to achieve this effect in GIMP 2.10. Ideally I want a monochrome image in which every black to the lightest grey is one color - the black being the chosen foreground color & all greys before becoming white lighter shades of this colour & the white itself remaining white. “change mode of layer”, there are options like “HSL Colour” & “LCh Color” but these do not match the results in the video. However in GIMP 2.10.32 (revision 1) there’s no “Color” option in step 3.

When it opened: Glen Klinger, whose parents operated Klinger’s West bar and grill at 3702 N. ![]() What it was: A Riverwest neighborhood bar, known for sponsoring scores of recreational sports teams, having a raft of pool tables and making a pretty good fish fry. (Snack Boys Snack Bar occupied the Hotel Foster space 2019-’21.) Klinger’s East When it closed: Closed in the summer of 2016. in space previously occupied by the bar/live-music venue Live on North, the Lava Lounge and, from 1993 to 2003, the music venue Globe East. When it opened: Opened by Mike "Bear" Kempka, Doug Williams and John Revord in April 2011 at 2028 E. What it was: A French-styled American bar on the east side, modeled after European hotel bars with a look the owners called “shabby chic regal,” with comfy chairs, rotating artwork and cocktails on tap (one of the first Milwaukee bars to do so). The bar continued operating as Hegarty's until 2010, when the investor group that owned the building pursued legal action to collect overdue rent for the bar. When it closed: Jim Hegarty died of a heart attack in the bar in 1981. (Hegarty came to Milwaukee from Ireland in 1926 starting in 1939, he opened nine taverns in the Milwaukee area overall.) It was called Flanigan’s when Jim Hegarty bought it in 1972 and changed its name. had been a tavern since the end of Prohibition. When it opened: The storefront at 1120 W.

When it closed: The Five and Ten’s final owner, James Douglas, closed the bar in 2001 and sold the building in 2002.

![]() In the years following WWII, the stock of clapped-out cars at their disposal happened to be old beaters that are now too valuable to cut apart. Those early customizers were the old school, and they created that look out of what was readily available. But pioneering hot-rodders didn't start chopping Model As into Highboys because they liked the “old-school” look. We often (and perhaps unconsciously) associate rodding with modifying old cars (or at least cars that look like old cars, which explains the profusion of reproduction Ford bodies available these days). And guys who love their tuner cars are just as passionate as guys who love their Chevy-powered Fords.Īnd that passion is really what hot-rodding is all about. Infusing the enthusiast world with fresh blood means we're going to have to welcome all comers, even if they're driving - gasp - imported cars. But have you been to a hot-rod gathering recently? The crowd tends to be…a bit on the gray-haired side. But a recent Wall Street Journal article on the rise of modified Smart cars and Toyota Priuses has us cheering for the latter (check it out - it's worth it for the WSJ-trademark stipple portrait of a “Smart car, modified” alone).īefore you start questioning our enthusiast cred, hear us out: Our burgeoning appreciation of the low-rider Prius in no way detracts for our love of chopped and channeled, V8-powered American steel. The former does a better job conforming to the popular “hot-rodder” image, 'specially if he's sporting a ZZ Top beard. The other rolls up in a slammed scissor-doored Smart car with a disabled speed limiter and a custom engine tune. One brings his Brookville-bodied '32 coupe sporting a fresh $15,000 paint job.

Ultimately, a piecemeal approach inevitably leaves workers behind in those states that do not adopt a policy, says Amy Liebman, chief program officer of workers, environment and climate for Migrant Clinicians Network. Though these protections are being rolled out across the world, there is still a long way to go in developing protection protocols in the United States that meet the current conditions.“La Isla Network has shown that these programs reduce harm, increase productivity, and provide a return on investment to employers. “It’s past time to implement proven occupational health protocols to all workers and industries being harmed by heat and its consequences in the United States and the European Union,” says La Isla Network CEO and co-founder Jason Glaser. Thanks to cutting-edge research in combination with on-the-ground work and policy development, workers are being protected, one by one.Roxana Chicas, PhD, RN, assistant professor at the Emory School of Nursing, says, "For far too long, there has been a common notion that heat stress is simply something that comes with these jobs and that nothing much can be done about it - that is a false notion." Workers in agriculture and construction don’t have to succumb to heat stress. ![]() We value professional athletes as a society, but why do we not show the same value for the people who put food on our tables each day?” Bethany Boggess Alcauter, director of research and public health programs at the National Center for Farmworker Health, says, “Outdoor workers are athletes working in extreme conditions. The nature of the work, in combination with extreme heat conditions, is excruciating and can be lethal. Workers in agriculture and construction face intense work activity, comparable to an athlete.Heat stress does not have to be a part of the job, and worker protections can provide a return on investment to businesses. Preventing immediate and long-term health effects from dehydration and chronic exposure to heat is simple, effective and inexpensive.The group advises a framework for protecting workers that reinforces their rights, establishes a federal heat standard, creates a public health surveillance system, and implements trainings on spotting heat-related illnesses. To meet the moment, the current framework for protecting workers needs an upgrade. Workers like those in agriculture and construction form the backbone of our society, yet rising heat is making their work riskier.Information from the brief includes the following: ![]() In addition to the School of Nursing, the La Isla Network, Migrant Clinicians Network, and the National Center for Farmworker Health call on a multistakeholder coalition - composed of policymakers, researchers, doctors, businesses, workers, and concerned individuals - to address concerns about heat, labor and health. A group of organizations, including the Emory University Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing, has released a joint brief titled, “Heat is Here, Let’s Protect Workers,” on the prevention of heat-related illness, injury and death among workers in the construction and agriculture industries in the United States. ![]() So, we came up with a couple of ideas to make playing Canasta free, easy, and accessible right off the bat. ![]() Some card games scare people off with complicated rulebooks. Sales numbers of playing cards and literature on the game increased accordingly. It ranked among the most played card games as soon as the 1950s. Once published, Canasta traveled quickly over the whole world. Their passion for another card game, Bridge, spurred them to compile their own game. Written historic accounts agree on Segundo Santos and Alberto Serrato developing Canasta in 1939 in Uruguay. The main element of the game is collecting seven cards of the same rank, then using them to form a figure of the same name. The name Canasta is derived from a Spanish word for a basket that would originally hold the playing cards. You will also have to plan ahead and play cooperatively.Ĭanasta is related to Rummy – just a bit more interesting and trickier. To win in this game you need to combine skills such as memory, focus, and attention. At the Palace, Canasta is available for two or four players. It is usually a four-player game with two teams, though there are variations for different numbers of players. If we are playing last and we can take the trick then we play our lowest card that can take the trick.Canasta is one of the youngest classic card games. If we do have play options that could beat what is currently in the trick pile, then we play our highest winning card unless we are playing the last trick card. If we don't have a play that can beat what is currently in the trick pile, then if our partner played the current highest trick card then we play our lowest counter. Otherwise, play the highest non trump card that is guaranteed to take the trick. Remembering what has been played and what was shown during passing and melding, play the highest trump card that is guaranteed to take the trick. If any play results in an average round score that is more than half a point lower than the highest average play, then remove it from the options considered. Finally, if necessary, we would choose to pass the cards that contribute the least amount of points to our meld score.įirst remove bad options: For each legal play, simulate the rest of the round 200 times with random deals of the unseen cards. Then prefer non-trump kings, then non-trump queens, then jack of diamonds (except if just received from partner), then lowest non-trump cards, then lowest trump cards. Then pass the cards that contribute the least amount of points to our meld score.įirst prefer not to pass any cards that result in a meld score for our hand. Then prefer queen of spades or jack of diamonds. Then, prefer to pass highest trump cards (except 9's of trump). Set the maximum willing bid at the round score achieved in more than 75% of the simulations.įirst prefer not to pass any cards that result in a meld score for your hand. Simulate many rounds with cards randomly dealt to standard strategy players. If we are playing last and we can take the trick then we play our lowest card that can take the trick. If we do have play options that could beat what is currently in the trick pile, then we play our highest winning card unless we are playing last. Otherwise, play the highest non trump card. Finally, if necessary, we would choose to pass the cards that contribute the least amount of points to our meld score. Then, prefer to first pass non-ace cards that would make us void in a suit, then prefer non-trump kings, then non-trump queens, then jack of diamonds (except if just received from partner), then lowest non-trump cards, then lowest trump cards. Then prefer highest non-trump cards.įirst prefer not to pass any cards that result in a meld score for our hand. Then, prefer to first pass highest trump cards.
