![]() Lagg, which used to be a ferry port for Knapdale especially during the period when cattle droving was common, is closely followed by Tarbert. The river runs into Loch na Mile to the south while Ardfernal overlooks Lowlandmans Bay to the north-east, which is almost completely closed off by the rocky promontory known as Rubhan Leim.īack on the main road and heading north once more, Beinn Shiantaidh rises up to the west giving as close a view as possible of one of the Paps without having to leave the road. ![]() To the north of Small Isles Bay, immediately after the main road has crossed the Corran River, a turning to the right leads to Knockrome and Ardfernal. Beyond these islands, Knapdale on the mainland is separated from Jura by the stretch of water known as the Sound of Jura. The village sits overlooking a bay with a group of islands that are known collectively as the Small Isles. This church has a room in the back of the building with a display of old photographs. Craighouse is a very quiet and lovely little village, home to the Jura Hotel, the local village shop and post office, a gift shop/tea room, village hall and the local Parish Church which is open for visitors. Here most people live and this is also the place of Juras only whisky distillery, which is open for visitors by appointment only. On the first of these are the remains of Claig Castle, one of the sea fortresses that were used by by the Lords of the Isles to control traffic in the seas around the Hebridean islands.Īfter another three miles heading north-east the little village of Craighouse appears, which is the main village on Jura. There are a couple of small islands situated off the southern coast of Jura, Am Fraoch Eilean to the south-west of Jura House and Brosdale Island to the south-east. Jura House itself is not open for the public. There is a beautiful walled garden open for visitors near Jura House and well worth a visit. ![]() The single track road follows the Sound of Islay south-east for the first few miles before it turns north-east just after Jura House, built around 1880 by the Campbells of Jura. Nowadays you will find a photographic gallery, owned by the same person as the small isles catering van next to the ferry terminal. The Ferry House is the only house at Feolin and used to be the house of the ferryman in earlier days. Feolin itself is nothing more than an anchoring place for the ferry and starting point for the only road on Jura, officially classified as the A846, which is actually more then it deserves in some places. This tour over the island will start at Feolin, which will be the place where the majority of visitors set foot on Jura for the first time. ![]()

Sleep Powder has decent accuracy, but Grass types gained a natural immunity to it in Gen. Two of them are also sabotaged by things like Soundproof and Throat Chop, but I guess that's too situational.

The left and right side bearings can be adjusted numerically by typing values into a table at the bottom of the window.* The space between any two glyphs (in a left-to-right font) consists of the right side bearing of the left glyph added to the left side bearing of the right glyph. In this window, the user can type text into a box and have the corresponding glyphs of the font under development appear. The Background:įontForge has a convenient way to adjust letter spacing (tracking), called the Metrics Window. The problem seems to have been caused by my own enormous ignorance on the technical aspects of digital fonts and font editors, but I am sure that there are other amateur type designers outside who are likewise lacking in technical know-how. So when I had problems getting any kind of kerning to work, and procrastination (predictably) didn’t make the problems go away, I buckled down and finally came up with this. As far as I can find, the only help information available for FontForge is a few tutorials and an Issues site on GitHub, which is geared more towards fixing bugs and other software problems, not helping inexperienced users like me figure out how to do things. It often assumes you already have some expertise in the subject, which may not be the case. I love open-source software, but one of the downsides is that the help information available for it is sorely lacking, at least compared to commercial software. I’m writing this post for two reasons: so that I can look up the solution I figured out if I have this problem again, and so that if when someone else runs into the same problem, maybe they will find this on Google and be saved some grief. Tagged accented glyphs, Colosseum typeface, design process, diacritics, FontForge, kerning The other is … well, I’ll leave it to the user to find out.Īnd now (it’s never done, people, never ever done), back to kerning. One is an inside joke referencing Comic Sans. I’ve added a couple of “Easter eggs” in some of the slots for little-used glyphs. I must say that it is very, very satisfying to fill dozens of empty glyph slots this way.Īnd I cannot help but have some fun with this font. In a nutshell, the type designer needs only to design the base glyphs and the diactrics, then “build” each accented glyph with nothing more than the push of a button (literally: in FontForge, it’s CTRL-SHIFT-A). Designing all these glyphs one by one is a daunting task… but Unicode makes it easy through the use of combining diacritics. Not so in most other languages using the Latin alphabet: letters may be equipped with any of a whole menagerie of diacritics-sometimes with more than one on the same letter. For the most part, though, our letters are unadorned. We occasionally see them on words of foreign origin, such as the acute accent ´ on the é of café or the cedilla ¸ on the ç of façade. In rare cases (mostly archaic), the diaresis ¨ appears on English words like coöperate. ![]() In English, we rarely use diacritical marks. I haven’t got a reply yet but I am hoping people are just still busy at work. Here’s the meat of the email I sent this morning to the FontForge Users mailing list (yes, a mailing list apparently this is 1998), describing the problem. (Like Windows Movie Maker, FontForge has you work on a “project” that is saved in its own native file format generating a final video file or font file, respectively, is the last step of the project.) This was to be, of course, a “rough draft” of the final font, intended for use in kerning. I generated an OpenType font file from my FontForge project. (For the most part, I can either do what I need to do just using Windows Notepad… or I need more control than any word processor can provide, and jump right into Scribus, an advanced desktop publishing application.) I even downloaded Open Office, which I used a lot on my old laptop before I started using Google Docs for my occasional word processing needs. At this stage, it really needs to be looked at as a large block of text in a word processor. In FontForge, I can only work on a single line of text at a time. (That’s 1378 pairs.) I even kerned combinations that will probably never be used, like qm and kB. Oh, how I have kerning woes.Īll letter pairs have been kerned, for all 52 letters. ![]() ![]() ![]() Her mouth was a sagging gash without lips or expression.

To me, a simulation is how many real-life, physical components we simulate, and especially this year, there are not many features that I can think of that we don't simulate. "To me, a simulator is not how easy it is to drive or how easy to make it spin. ![]() With my real motorsport experience, I can say that real racing cars are made to have a lot of grip," Greco continued. "In over 20 years of my career between sim racing and real motorsport, I have always come across questions like. "This year, the way the car feels, with the force feedback, and how it all works together, we are very close to what I want from a simulator," he said in the game's press release. Like me, Greco says he got tired of gamers conflating difficulty with accurate simulation. "It's the hardest thing to convey in any racing game because you're not physically in the car-the feeling of tire on tarmac, how it grips, how it behaves when there are changes in temperature or weather conditions."įurther Reading This isn’t a game: We try out a professional driver-in-the-loop simulatorIt actually reminded me of the steering feel I experienced in a professional racing simulator recently, which will be welcome news to David Greco, F1 2018's senior car handling designer. "We split the elements that are most important, that need to be simulated at that rate, and it was very much a known thing that we wanted to get," Mather told Ars. If you're playing with a wheel-I used the Thrustmaster T-GT and a PS4-you'll notice there's really good force feedback, which you use to feel how tires and suspension are working and therefore just how hard you can push for lap time. On top of that, the way the suspension and chassis are modeled has been improved, and the relevant bits of the simulation are now running at 1000Hz-regardless of the platform you choose for the game. All of these affect how quickly the tires get to operating temperature and how long you can make each set last. F1 2018 boasts a revised tire model now simulating the temperature of the carcass as well as the tire surface and also the brake temperatures. ![]() New modes aside, the racing itself has been improved, too. In addition to ranking your experience (from rookie to veteran), you're also scored on a scale from "sportsmanship" to "showmanship." Some teams, like Ferrari, want a showman others prefer a more buttoned-down, less-cocky driver.Īnd if details like that have you looking at a worn copy of F1 2016 or F1 2017 and wondering, well this may be the game for you after all. We can't just try things and throw them away if they don't work." With such a tightly constrained dev window, we can't waste any time. The career added in 2016 was just the beginning, and we know where we wanted to take it, what features to add over time. "It's actually not the ideas that are the problem, it's purely the time we have to create it," explained Mather. I don't envy the task in front of Lee Mather (the game director) and his team at Codemasters-luckily, F1 2018 is proof there's genuinely a lot of thought going into that effort. Then again, persuading cynics like me to open our wallets again is probably an even tougher job from the developer's side. "It's just like the Game Name 20xx you love, but now with one extra year on the date" can be hard to spin out into a full-length piece. Reviewing the latest version of a yearly sports franchise game isn't always something to look forward to. Platform: Windows, PS4 (tested), and Xbox One ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Here are some critical steps that will help you obtain your bartender certification: Study Your State’s Bartending Requirements Your course contents also depend upon the requirements of the state where you intend to work as a bartender. After completing the required course hours, you need to take an alcohol seller-server certification course. You will also complete mixology coursework with required training hours before you can get an alcohol server certification. Getting a professional server certification is similar to attending a bartending school to obtain a bartending license. In some states or cities, it is a requirement for bartenders to have an alcohol server before they are allowed to operate the bar. But completing the training will prepare you for future career development. ![]() Ideally, you can get an alcohol server certification only when it is required in your jurisdiction. There will also be a test that includes questions about the dangers of over-consumption and how to check ID before serving alcoholic beverages. On the other hand, attending an alcohol server certification course will help you prepare for various circumstances when you start working. Getting a Bartending Certificationīartending certification or an alcohol server certification is not a requirement if you intend to obtain a bartending license. Often, a bartending certification or alcohol server certification gives the bartender an edge and additional credentials, especially for places that serve hard liquor products outside wine and beer. It will also include mixology training and principles such as creative garnishes and background information about various liquor products.Īdditionally, you will also discuss customer service skills, product inventory, and professional service atmosphere. This is on top of your bartending course to get your license. If you intend to obtain a bartender certification for alcohol server, you will need additional training and other coursework on responsible alcohol serving and liquor laws. Moreover, getting a bartending license does not have the same educational standard and conditions as getting a bartending certification. It is the minimum age requirement though it still varies from one state to another. In addition, it will cover principles and ethics in the responsible serving of alcohol.īartending licenses are issued to bartenders 18 years old and above. The programs will include state and federal liquor laws. The licensing programs offered by bartending schools should be approved by the federal or state liquor regulation board. Typically, a bartender license will allow bartenders to serve beer and wine to customers in bars or restaurants. These two differ in several ways, including the coursework needed for each of them. Don’t get confused about a bartending license and a bartender certification. ![]() |
