![]() “We are in the midst of investing in some new brands and launching them very shortly, which we haven’t done in a few years,” he said. ![]() The brand’s growth also comes as International Cosmetics & Perfumes is in expansion mode, Saujet said. ![]() Earlier this year, the Creed family sold a majority stake in the brand to BlackRock LTPC. He added that during the confinement period of the pandemic, the brand’s six digital points of sale made between 40 and 45 percent of last year’s sales volume in spite of brick-and-mortar closures.Ĭofounder and chief executive officer of International Cosmetics & Perfumes, Emmanuel Saujet, said the brand has grown between 14 and 16 percent consecutively over the past five years. “We’ve seen a really strong surge in online business that’s really saved us during the pandemic,” Saujet continued. The 10th-anniversary edition of Aventus also marks its first digital launch, complete with a virtual launch party and an extensive influencer campaign garnering over 3 million impressions, the brand said. Saujet attributes the sales not only to a loyal customer base, but broader communications online. In brick-and-mortar, we’re able to offer this customer experience at the point of sale, which we can do at a much more elevated level than we can online,” Saujet said. “It’s huge for us because our online business is not where we’ve been very successful. “Our e-commerce business has grown 50 percent over last year, and including our retail partner sites, it represents about 20 percent of our total business,” Saujet said. The label, which features the number 10 in a ribbon, was meant to pay homage to tailor Henry Creed, who founded the brand in 1760.ĭespite the brand’s legacy and old-world appeal, it’s fared well in the digital age, especially as the coronavirus pandemic shut down most of the brand’s retail partners in North America.

These plugins will augment the answers of Bing Chat to give it extra capabilities, such as the ability to make a reservation through OpenTable. For now, Microsoft has shared just three partners: OpenTable, Wolfram Alpha, and Microsoft Math Solver. Plugins have been available in ChatGPT Plus for a while, but having plugins for a completely free service is new. This is something we’ve seen work in projects like MiniGPT-4, but having it built right into the freely accessible Bing Chat is fantastic. In addition to prompting Bing Chat with an image, you’ll also be able to insert a link and ask a question that’s contextually related to what’s in the image or link. Bing Chat will be able to analyze and interact with images in the same way it can with text. This is similar to visual search, except backward. Now, according to Microsoft, Bing Chat will also get the ability to receive visual input rather than just text. Multimodal support was announced for GPT-4 earlier this year, but it still hasn’t been rolled out. This is a feature ChatGPT is already good at, but it’s nice to see Bing Chat support it also. This updated formatting might include bulleted lists, bolded text, and more. Videos will open and play directly in the chat interface without requiring a new tab, with even YouTube supported.īing Chat will now respond to questions or prompts with charts, graphs, and “updated formatting” of answers. Though we didn’t get an example of this, Microsoft even says video will be a part of this new visual search more and more in the future.

When Kaufman started to realize his golf career might have flamed out, he asked his agent to inquire about TV gigs. on Golf Channel and Saturday and Sunday from 1-6 p.m. Network coverage will be Thursday and Friday from noon-6 p.m. There will be live streaming on Peacock, and the NBC Sports app. Tommy Roy, a Ponte Vedra Beach resident, is in his 31st year overseeing The Players coverage. Jimmy Roberts will do essays during the week and Damon Hack will do post-round interviews. Mike Tirico continues with his host duties, Dan Hicks is back as the play-by-play announcer for a 24th year and Paul Azinger is the lead analyst.įaxon and Paul McGinley are analysts, Curt Byrum and Steve Sands will be in the tower and Notah Begay III and former Tour caddie John Wood join Kaufman as on-course analysts. The NBC/Golf Channel crew will be a mix of familiar faces and voices and like Kaufman, some new blood. "I'm on a different journey now," said Kaufman, part of a new announcing crew that will work The Players Championship this week at the Players Stadium Course at TPC Sawgrass. "I love being with so many of the guys I played with on the Tour. "I still love being on a golf course," the former LSU player said. He eventually came to peace with that and knows what's important now: his wife Francie, who has been with him since they were in high school in Birmingham, and a two-month baby daughter, Anna Carter. Life was good but Kaufman said he now realizes that he didn't have the Thomas or Spieth type of game. Kaufman got as high as 48th in the world, was in demand by sponsors and was part of the spring break posse that include Spieth, Justin Thomas and Rickie Fowler. Who's playing?

More importantly, golf is fun again for Kaufman. "We do a lot of trash-talking, bet a lot and never pay each other." "Most of my good bits come from this group," the 31-year-old Kaufman said a few days before the beginning of Players Championship week.

The wordlist contains 1024 English words. Like BIP39 it also supports an optional passphrase for extra protection/multi account setups. This encoding scheme supports a robust checksum based on Reed-Solomon code that guarantees detection of any error affecting at most 3 words and has less than a 1 in 10^9 chance of failing to detect more errors. It’s a threshold seed splitting scheme where one can encode the seed in for example 3 different shares (seed phrases) where only 2 shares are required to recover the seed. The main purpose of this format is the ability to encode the seed in N lists of words in such a way that to recover the seed only M number of shares is required (where M <= N). In 2019 SatoshiLabs released a seed splitting format codenamed SLIP39 based on the idea of secret sharing published by Adi Shamir in 1979. The full description of this format is here. The version number also encodes the type of output addresses (Legacy, P2SH-Segwit, Native Segwit), network (mainnet or testnet) used and whether it’s a single or a multisig wallet which makes future recovery easier. The purpose of the version number is to enable forward compatibility with future releases of the wallet. Another distinctive feature of this format is the version number encoded in the seed. Even though it doesn’t depend on a fixed wordlist it uses the same 2048 English wordlist as BIP39. This format derives keys and addresses from a hash of the UTF8 normalised seed phrase with no dependency on a fixed wordlist. Electrum new seed format: Starting with Electrum version 2.0 it introduced a new seed format, the “Seed Version System” to fix some of the perceived shortcomings of BIP39.Current versions of Electrum can still recognise this format and import such wallets (the process is automatic upon entry of the seed). “Bidirectional” here means that you can turn binary entropy into a mnemonic and vice-versa. There is some overlap between this list and the BIP39 wordlist but they’re not the same This format uses bidirectional encoding between seed phrase and entropy. Electrum old seed format (Electrum versions prior to 2.0): The wordlist contains 1626 English words.Starting with version 2.0 Electrum uses a “new” seed format. The “old” version from circa 2011 to circa 2014. This format doesn’t support versioning on purpose (simplicity). In addition to the English list there are seven other languages but they’re not used commonly. ![]() The word list is fixed and consists of 2048 words. It supports encoding between 128 and 256 bits of entropy, a checksum and an optional passphrase for additional protection of the seed. This format was created in 2013 and has since gained the most traction and use. Internet connected devices and storage enable remote attacks and physical backups require physical access and are much harder to perform. Why is it important? Well, electronic devices and especially Internet connected devices can be hacked into more easily than physical seed backups (for example paper or metal). The main purpose of mnemonic seeds is to convert a very large number (a private key) into a human readable form which can be copied and backed up by humans without using electronic devices. BIP39 mnemonic seed stamped on Coldbit Steel What’s the purpose of mnemonic seed phrases? Why do they exist? What makes them different from each other? Can we identify them easily? In this short guide we’ll try to address these questions. There are essentially four types of mnemonic seed phrases used in Bitcoin: ![]() This clearly highlights the lack of professionalism in management at this hotel. I should have taken photos to highlight these issues. While the waiters and waitresses are visibly working hard. (Poor customer service) Chefs, managers, supervisors - all visibly guilty of this. (Poor customer service) Most supervisors and managers in the buffet all chatting to each other, talking on their mobile phones, completely lost, disengaged, stood in the middle of the busy floors, totally ignorant of their guests, which is disgraceful. Extremely little staff interaction and engagement with the guests. Negatives Many staff evidently with low morale and appear to be overworked and inadequately trained. Excellent patisserie serving delicious cakes and coffees. Nice ambience around the hotel and grounds. The grounds - Really beautiful and well kept, lovely trees, flowers, different birds singing all day. Beach, excellent location, good quality sunbeds eith comfortable mattresses and large unbrellas. Room interiors nice, clean, modern, excellent mattress, room size, bathroom and balcony. Several nice, attentive, engaging, professional staff, especially in the patisserie and pool bar. Barut Hemera positives: Good food, good selection from main buffet restaurant. These managers and supervisors need to be stood at the restaurant entrance greeting their guests with eye contact and a smile. Staff must engage with guests in any hotel. But at the Barut Hemera, the managers and supervisors, (male staff with black jackets or white shirts with name badges), are all speaking to each other, ignoring guests, which is unacceptable. The Rixos owned hotels where I have stayed on previous occasions have class leading, personalised customer service with plenty of interaction, warmth, engagement, professionalism and attention to detail. Or possibly it's just this particular Barut hotel which has this problem. This is usually indicative of a cultural problem within the company itself. But these few staff are sadly outnumbered by other staff, who appear to have low morale and inadequate training. ![]() There are several excellent staff who stand out, who are engaging, warm, kind, professional. Absolutely no interaction in this 5 star hotel, which clearly has a customer service issue, specifically with management and supervisors, who appear to be incompetent regarding customer service. Easily visible all around, especially in the main buffet restaurant, where I would expect staff to be at the door greeting guests as they enter the restaurant. My first impressions were the hotel is lacking staff engagement, warmth and interaction with the guests. In Turkey, I usually stay at Rixos hotels, but on this occasion, I tried the Barut Hemera in Side. I've stayed in very many hotels, from 2 star to 5 star, over the past 40 years of travel, in an extensive variety of locations around the world. I will write an opening statement then highlight specific bullet points of the hotel's positives and negatives. Based on my subjective experience of staying here for one week, all inclusive. This is my review of the Barut Hemera hotel. Can't wait to revisit after trying other restaurants again this year. I would especially like to thank our waiter Ersin for his friendly jovial manner and team chef Muhittin yidiz for being helpful, well mannered and ensuring the restaurant runs smoothly. It is a hard job and waiters must find it difficult to please everyone all the time so a big well done to them all. We noticed how kind the waiters were to the children and attentive to others despite being busy. Whilst writing I would like to mention the lovely and attentive service in the Turkish a la carte. He even followed with enquiries to ourselves to ensure our phone had indeed been returned. The Jet 2 rep kayip Epya was also more than helpful in retrieving the phone and even saved us a trio to the airport to get it. I am currently staying at this hotel and would like to thank the friendly reception staff here especially Llmmu for her help trying to locate my husbands lost phone. ![]() You can find more information at the Maxprog Web site.

And then there are the end-of-level bosses, which require plenty of well-timed, heavy-duty drilling to defeat. You even have to drill into rubber blocks, which you then reverse-drill (or kick-back) out of to jump to higher areas. Instead you drill to take out the numerous enemies that populate the environment. Because even more than you might expect, this game is completely based around drilling. Once equipped, you deploy the power of the gears by holding down the shoulder button until you get a neat howling sound effect and the onscreen prompt to 'shift up', requiring you to quickly release and re-apply the button for extra drilling.Īdding to the sheer joy of the process is the game cart's in-built rumble pack, which provides appropriately shaky feedback. Finding them is a matter of working your way logically through the level. Starting off a level with just one gear (there are six areas in total, each consisting of a couple of levels), some parts are protected by tough blocks or steel barriers you can't break without the extra gears. In the early stages of the game, the distinction doesn't matter but as you dig deeper into the world of the rotten Skullker gang (which has stolen your precious red diamond), tricks and moves are set up that require you to choose the right rotation, as well as reversing directions, in an almost rhythmic manner, mid-drill.Īlso building up your move repertoire are two additional drilling gears. At its simplest, the drill leaps into action as you hold down one of the GBA's (or DS') shoulder buttons left rotates it anti-clockwise, right clockwise. ![]() The reason is the sheer pleasure of wielding Jill's Drill Dozer. More than just a coherent learning environment though, Drill Dozer's also one of the most enjoyable 2D action-based platformers you're ever likely to come across. By the end of the game, you'll be pulling off the sort of stunts you'd have thought impossible at the start. Despite being on the lowly GameBoy Advance, the story of a Jill and her mechanical walking robotic pet-come-attack-vehicle – the eponymous Drill Dozer – is a textbook example of how to teach players to deal with increasingly complex situations. To avoid such embarrassment, you need thorough training, and that's exactly what happens in Drill Dozer. Many a home's been blighted by indirect results, such as wonky shelves or a mirror that suddenly falls off the wall. But it's not just the sharp, rotating metal bit that causes problems. A drill can be a dangerous thing, especially when clutched by inexperienced hands. ![]() The robot was named "DRU."
