![]() Start by offering a click (if your dog is clicker trained), treat, and praise when they follow the hand signal. To begin teaching your dog hand signals, stick with simple commands and clear hand gestures. Teaching your dog to read hand signals is very rewarding and also helpful should your dog lose hearing in their golden years. Since dogs are so adept at reading body language, they can easily be taught to read hand signals. ![]() You’ve probably seen this skill in action if you’ve ever glanced at your dogs leash or treats and suddenly your dog wants to go for a walk or eat a snack. ![]() The study concluded that dogs gathered social information and used visual skills to locate food hidden in containers when humans pointed, gazed at, or tapped on the containers. In a study called the Domestication of Social Cognition in Dogs, researchers found that “dogs are more skillful than great apes at a number of tasks in which they must read human communicative signals indicating the location of hidden food.” Domesticated puppies were even found better at reading body language than wolves raised by humans. They communicate with you and each other through use of postures, tail carriage, ear and eye position, facial expressions, and movement. ![]() They are accustomed to using body language to communicate what is going on with them, too. Dogs can read your body language, eye movements, posture, as well as hand signals.ĭogs’ understanding of interpreting body language is profound. Those times when your dog seemingly reads your mind, most likely your dog is reading unspoken physical cues. ![]() □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US! □□ Free Shipping Over $49 in the 48 Contiguous US!ĭogs are excellent at reading body language. ![]()

![]() ![]() This dragon coloring sheet has another more detailed dragon, and it looks like there may be smoke in the air near it, Maybe he’s standing near a volcano, and you could color the smoke in while using an orange for the sky to show that there’s fire and lava nearby. ![]() We’re getting a mean look from this scary creature. This one is surrounded by bubbles, so maybe it’s a water based dragon that lives in a lake?įor this more aquatic dragon I would use blues and greens to reflect the theme beautifully. ![]() We’re back with a much less threatening looking dragon for this next dragon coloring sheet. I would use bright reds and oranges for this dragon coloring page to show that he’s a serious, angry dragon. We have a closeup on this cool looking dragon face, and he looks like he means business! The previous dragon printable had a cute and happy dragon, but for this next one we have a very angry looking one. What colors do you think would suit this dragon best? Maybe you could use some of the colors you use on him for the stars around him as well. He’s surrounded by stars and looking very happy as he flies through the air.

This next dragon coloring sheet shows another more realistic dragon looking quite regal and a lot more relaxed than the first dragon in this collection.įor this one I would also think of colors you may find on lizards and other reptiles like greens and grays, but you could always use more fantastical colors as well. It seems like a great day outside, so I would suggest keeping the background a nice clear blue, but what colors will you use for the little dragon? We have a much cuter little guy for this second dragon printable! The first dragon looked a bit angry, but this one is having a great day and looking very happy as he flies through the air. You could use a nice green to give him a very lizard-like look or use a darker red to give him a more fiery look. The more realistic style of this dragon printable makes me think that more muted colors would work well for this one. ![]() REMEMBER: You can get the COMPLETE set of these coloring pages > HERE 10 Brand New Dragon Coloring Pages – Free to Print and Colorįor this first image in our collection of free dragon coloring pages for kids, we have a fierce looking dragon looking down at us.

Click the gray eye-dropper at the top of the mask, so that it turns blue, then click and drag inside the red balloon.Select 3D from the color mask Type menu.You select which one you want to use from the Type menu. 3D is newer and easier to use, HSL (which stands for “Hue, Saturation & Luminance”) has more control. There are two types of Color Masks: 3D and HSL. You can use this same technique to delete a color mask you no longer need. NOTE: If you choose Shape Mask by mistake, make sure it is highlighted with a yellow box and press the Delete key. Slide your mouse near the title “Color Wheels 1” to reveal a gray icon (red arrow).Click the Color Inspector (left arrow) and choose Color Wheels (menu by right arrow).Put the playhead in the clip with the element you want to change and select the clip.NOTE: Apple has improved the color masks a lot in recent versions, so if you, like me, have not looked at them recently, you are in for a pleasant surprise. My general preference is to use the Color Wheels for color correction, which is what we’ll use for this example. Instead, we need to use a color mask, which selects a portion of an image based upon its color.Ĭolor masks can be used with the Color Board, Color Wheels or Color Curves. A shape mask won’t work, because the balloon has a very unusual shape. In order to change the color of the red balloon, we need to select just those red colors. The balloon is, essentially, a single color, in focus, with clearly defined edges. The easiest fix is when there is a clear difference between the color you want to fix – the red balloon – and the rest of the images in the frame. In this tutorial, I’ll show how to use both. A better option is to use the Hue/Saturation Curves. The traditional approach is to use a color mask, but, as you’ll see, these are pretty limited. You can’t go back and reshoot, so, after the swearing stops, how do you “fix it in post?”įinal Cut provides two different ways to fix the color of an object in the frame, without changing the color of the entire frame: The production planning was almost perfect… except, during the shoot an actor wore the wrong color shirt, or a key coffee mug was the wrong color, or, something in the background is just too obvious. ![]() ![]() This is the classic multi-sensory Orton-Gillingham approach to learning phonics, and is a particularly useful activity if your kids need a little extra sensory help when learning to blend each letter sound together to form a word. More like this: Phonics Sorting Baskets - The Imagination Tree I'll definitely be looking into those lists before we play next! Now I will say that when I was doing this activity it was all a bit spur of the moment, and thinking of places where we could look for plentiful SSS sounds for her to collect kept me on my toes.After the fact, I found this fabulous list of letter-of-the-alphabet toys and objects you can use in these types of games over at This Reading Mama. So it wouldn't have been a cute photo anyway o) But because my little is 4 and hasn't mastered her pencil yet, I wrote the list so as not to frustrate her. And of course I totally forgot to take photos of our list. So, after we collected our haul, we spread it out on the floor and picked up each item in turn, making a list of what we'd found, and underlining the S in each word. I wasn't initially going to do this on our hunt, because I didn't want to make it too difficult, but since my little did it automatically after grabbing a dress ("dresssss"), I rolled with it!Įxtension for Sound-Letter Matching: My 4yo is starting to match phonemes to letter shapes. Middle and End of Word Sounds: Beyond just beginning letter sounds, you can have your kiddo listen for the target sound in the middle or end of the word. By the end of our scavenge we had a hefty haul, which you've already seen in the picture to the right! ? YES! She was utterly delighted whenever we discovered an item that had a SSS sound and we could pop it in our basket. ![]() We held up each item and I prompted: "Does this have the SSSS sound in it? Doll. ![]() ![]() This is a great activity for building phonemic awareness (the awareness about the letter sounds that make up words). We got our basket and only collected things that began with the letter-sound we were focusing on (in our case, S). So the other day we decided to put a phoneme-twist on her usual "put everything in the basket" scavenge through the house. My 4yo loves to collect anything and everything. I don't know about you, but I have a hoarder. ![]() ![]() ![]() Update 3: Correction, I tried again now paying attention to it the whole time, and it wasn’t that the loading bar never filled up at all, it completely fills up, but nothing else ever happens after. Update 2: It wasn’t recognized on the Startup manager either, so I tried all the process all over from the start, and I saw what I had done wrong, I didn’t wait enough for each line to do its thing before entering the next ones, so I just wasted a DVD-RDL disc, this second time it apparently worked, upon boot to Start up manager it was recognized, but after selecting it it seemed to be doing its thing fine, but then it just went to the boot screen with the apple logo and the loading bar underneath it, but the bar never filled up, at all, not part of it, nothing, I left it all night. Update: I managed to create the disc with the commands (still would like to know how to get and run scripts for future references), but reinserting it in the MacBook Pro pops up the message that it isn’t readable by this computer, is that how it’s supposed to behave? I’ll boot to the Startup manager and see what happens. I’m on Catalina, my MacBook Pro became very slow and unresponsive and the battery lasts very little since “upgrading” to it so this is why I want to try Mojave, I tried resetting the NVRAM and that did make it run smooth again, but just for a little while, and didn’t change the too quick battery draining issue, now it’s back as slow and unresponsive, I tried resetting the NVRAM again but this time it didn’t fix it. Since I couldn’t that way I tried running the commands, it asked me to "erase the volume at /Volumes/install_build”, I pressed Y to continue with it, and it gave me an "Error erasing disk error number (22, 0) Sorry for my lack of knowledge in this matter. rtf which seemed to be my only option, I then renamed it to. sh but it wouldn’t allow me to, so I saved is as. But if geekiness is your thing then go ahead and try the dvd.Ĭlick to expand.Hello, could you (or anyone else) please let me know how does one get the script? I don’t see any “download” button nor anything like that, I tried copying and pasting the code in the TextEdit and saving it as. Be aware however that a bootable DVD is much slower to boot up than a usb, so if you want to do it as quickly as possible, then the usb is the way to go, not dvd. So if you want to be really geeky you can try to make a bootable DVD of Mojave. I spoke before on how to make a bootable usb of the Mojave installer at and that is the most efficient way to make a bootable installer.īut some are old fashioned and have bootable disks for every system going way back to Mac OS 7.1 (including high sierra). Hopefully we can have success with Mojave too. Prior to lion you could buy disks from apple. Nevertheless we have so far had success in making dvds of every system from lion to high sierra. ![]() ![]() But ever since Mavericks it became quite difficult to make a bootable dvd and progress on this has always been experimental. It was easy to make a dvd of lion and mountain lion. If not then maybe we can modify the commands somehow to make it work. I haven't tried this yet and just because it worked in High Sierra doesn't guarantee it will work in Mojave. Where you replace "YOURNAME" with the username for the account you are logged into at the time.Īnd then boot to startup manager with option key to select the dvd and install Mojave from it. Sudo hdiutil burn /Users/YOURNAME/Desktop/Mojave.iso You can then use this to burn it to a dual layer dvd: Hdiutil convert ~/Desktop/InstallSystem.dmg -format UDTO -o ~/Desktop/Mojave.isoĪnd then you can rename to Mojave.iso. Hdiutil detach /Volumes/Install\ macOS\ Mojave Sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Mojave.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia -volume /Volumes/install_build Hdiutil attach /tmp/ -noverify -mountpoint /Volumes/install_build Hdiutil create -o /tmp/Mojave.cdr -size 8000m -layout SPUD -fs HFS+J Then run the following commands in terminal: You can get it here: from the mac app store if you haven’t already. So modifying the commands in that thread (which previously successfully made a bootable dvd of high sierra) we could proceed thusly:įirst you have to have the full installer of Mojave in your Applications folder.

So, if your perspective is business growth, having a good image and winning new customers, avoid choosing names with an expiration date. This is because what is considered modern today, will soon be outdated. You need to see where your production company will be in a few years and whether that name will still be attractive in the future. This will not be relevant in the long run. Several businesses are inspired by some jargon, soap opera, character, or television program. Avoid Fad NamesĪ very common mistake when designating a video production company's name is adopting expressions or references based on what's trending. Discard names that may cause confusion or association with the competition. When selecting the best names, give preference to short and sweet names. But you do not want to be so unique it's confusing to your customers. This is a flaw that will significantly harm the branding process to consumers. One of the biggest problems when picking a company name is choosing one that is too long or complex. It demonstrates how different people can complement each other and integrate new ideas. This will make the creative process develop better.īrainstorming production company names with your team is important. Create a relaxed and comfortable environment.Be careful not to inhibit any member of the team, they may not feel comfortable expressing his ideas and your company may lose a great name.They all deserve to be recorded and analyzed later. Do not classify name ideas into good and bad.Align everyone with the common goal of what your company is trying to achieve.For the process to flow naturally and show good results, you must adopt some rules: Choose an airy, reserved, and well-lit environment to brainstorm. Start this process by meeting with your team. You can make use of this framework to facilitate the choice of your company name. Does your competitors' business name relate to what they are doing?īrainstorming is a technique widely used in companies to develop new ideas and stimulate the creativity of the agents involved.Who among your competitors is doing better? Why? And how can you produce a better and unique name?.Is there a trend being followed by your competitors?.To do this, you need to ask yourself the following: This will help you in determining which names to use, and which names to avoid. This is trying to understand why and how your competitors came up with their company names. ![]() Do a Competitor Analysisīefore you start coming up with name ideas, it is important to do a competitor analysis.

So, the the following list has some qualifications, and as wonders and techs change so will the difficulties of various tourneys.This scrolls section is based on the original post made by Of Baal which can be viewed here. On balance, humans have a better set of troops than elves though, the balance between the 2 isn't quite right. Other examples of how things change include humans having a big advantage in gems and marble because their mages are soooo good (best troop type in game), and elves in any tourney that uses a lot of heavy ranged (golems being better than human mortars). In short, between the tech unit upgrade and the faster training grounds, planks was a fair bit easier for me this time than it was 9 weeks ago. I also finished the 3 star tech upgrade for strategists recently (often a star upgrade makes that troop type more efficient to use for a period of time). So, the last planks tourney is one where its helpful to use a lot of orc strategists. For example, in my chapter and with my wonders, my training ground is quite a lot faster than my barracks. The difficulty changes for humans\elves at different stages in the tech tree. ![]() |
