Who doesn’t love a righteous dream, bigger than the span of your arms? What I like most about this movie is the locomotive power of their dreams, and the entrepreneurial spirit that runs through the tale. A Star is Born, and Phillip Michael Thomas (as Stix) is willing to gamble everything to see their dreams come true. Sparkle (Irene Cara) is forced to take over the Lead Vocalist’s role, rising from the ashes. Ultimately, a slippery force named Satin cracks the glossy veneer of Sister (the sophisticated lead vocalist played by McKee), and it seems all their dreams are derailed. Enter stage left the young well-meaning Svengali producer character (played by Phillip Michael Thomas) whose dreams ride heavily on their success. Lonette McKeey was an amazing singer and actress in.

What’s controversial?įirst, the film is a pre-Dreamgirls rags-to-riches story of three girls with dreams of stardom. A Curtis Mayfield-produced gem sung by Aretha Franklin, the soundtrack to the movie is glorious… but laden with its share of controversy. Not unlike many movies that are labeled as “Blaxploitation”, the soundtrack to Sparkle (1976) is often regarded more highly than the film itself.

We use laser machines to cut sheet metal.We create layouts of installations, building complexes.When are solutions such as DraftSight for 2D design necessary? For users who have so far used the free version of DraftSight or another program, switching to one of the new packages will not require additional learning, but only learning the new features.ĭraftSight is a necessary solution for most companies, but how do you recognize the need for a program? In DraftSight 2019, depending on the package we want to decide on, there are 3D operations, as well as the ability to transfer a photo to a DWG file line! Prices are not excessive when looking at other solutions available on the market offering comparable possibilities. On different forums you can see big disappointment among users, but the manufacturer as part of the purchase provides the brand new version of the program with completely new features. Until now, it also appeared in the free version, which further increased its popularity, however, as announced by the manufacturer, on December 31, 2019, the free versions will expire. The easy-to-use interface, well-known commands for easy drawing, the ability to save different versions of the DWG extension to exchange with different versions of AutoCAD attracted many users to the program. Thanks to it, working with DWG or DXF files is pure pleasure. One of such programs is DraftSight, which over the years has become very recognizable in the world. Despite the great popularity of spatial design programs and their unquestioned advantages, 2D design programs such as AutoCAD are still very popular and useful.

(The website is also the only way to edit snippets with the current Windows beta, which lacks a front-end interface, and can only expand snippets defined elsewhere.) When logged into an account at, you have the same access to groups of snippets and individual entries, and can even edit and add snippets using all the tools available in the native apps. This new ecosystem adds an ok, but slightly awkward web app to the mix. TextExpander now includes a Team tier for sharing snippets across an organization, managed via its web app. The Team version adds administrator-level features for showing group members, managing permissions, automatically pushing groups of snippets to people joining an organization or already part of it and consolidated billing. The Life Hacker flavor lets subscribers share with any other user by email address. (That option remains available.) Further, anyone with permissions to edit a shared snippet can make changes, and those revisions are in turn pushed to everyone that’s part of the shared group. Previously, TextExpander required exporting a snippet group (a folder that collects items), sending that or loading it on a shared local or cloud server, and importing it in another copy of the app. (Owners of previous releases receive a lifetime discount on the Life Hacker tier’s yearly rate.)īoth tiers allow something previously unavailable in TextExpander: publishing snippets to others that push out updates whenever the source snippet is changed. Smile offers a 30-day trial for both flavors of its service. The two subscription levels are labeled Life Hacker (for consumers) at $5 billed monthly or $47.50 per year and Team (for businesses) at $10 billed monthly or $95.50 pear year. The new app versions comprise TextExpander 6 for OS X, TextExpander 4 for iOS, and TextExpander 1 for Windows (in beta). When your subscription is inactive, TextExpander empties all the snippets. (They can be exported from the OS X version to retain copies.) If you’re logged out or the subscription lapses, snippets disappear. You’re required to set up an account and it has to be in good standing-currently paid for and active-to use snippets on any copy of the app you have, as well as to access sharing features on the website. The new set of TextExpander apps revolve around and connect to Smile’s servers. But we review the software and service in front of us, not a future version we can’t test. Smile says it plans to add additional features and sophistication, which may ultimately make it worth the price to some users in the future, including those upgrading from the previous standalone releases. In this review, I’ll point out changes in the snippet editor, but will be focused on the ecosystem of apps: First, how it all works next, security decisions and tradeoffs and finally, how existing users should approach the new arrangement.īut I can start with the conclusion: This first iteration is overpriced for most users’ needs, and removing the ability to use TextExpander on a standalone basis with a less efficient personal sync doesn’t give existing customers any advantage.

This is an important first step in any electrical wiring project, it prevents any accidents from happening. Start by turning off the main power breaker.If any issue arises during this step, make sure to rectify it before attempting to use the plug/outlet. Get a small voltage tester and check that electricity is flowing properly through each wire. Once all these steps are completed, you can now turn on the power. After running the RV cord from the box to your RV, attach it to the outlet on your RV with the correct screws for each of the wires. Once all your wiring is complete and secure, you can now run your RV cord through an appropriate conduit if needed. Finally, connect your neutral wire to both white screws inside the plug box. Next, attach the other hot wire to another silver screw opposite from where you attached it before. Then connect one of the hot wires to either of the silver screws on each side of the outlet. To begin wiring the plug itself, attach the ground wire to the green screw on it’s back. You will also need tools such as a drill, screwdriver and pliers. To properly install, you will need five types of wire: a ground wire, two hot wires, a neutral wire and an RV cord. Once you’ve confirmed that no electricity is running in the area, it’s time to begin the installation. In this case, you’ll want to shut off power from the main panel box at your campground before beginning work on the wiring.

This type of plug/outlet is usually installed on the back of an RV, allowing connection to a dedicated circuit in either a house or campground. It contains three prongs and can provide up to 50 A of power.

Having a comprehensive diagram like this will ensure that you are able to safely and properly connect all of the components in the plug. A wiring diagram is made up of two parts: the actual wiring, which shows how each wire is connected, and the schematic portion, which shows what each connection does. Knowing this will help you avoid potential problems in the future.

Knowing how to properly wire a 50-amp RV plug is vital for any camper or RV owner. It provides the power you need for all of your appliances, from TVs and microwaves to air conditioning and hot water heaters. The 50-amp RV plug is typically used for larger RVs such as fifth-wheels, toy haulers, and travel trailers.
