Physical Characteristics Of Tabby Siamese Mix CatsĪ tabby Siamese cat, also referred to as lynx point Siamese, is a beautiful breed with unique and exotic features. Their popularity prompted cat breeders to produce more Siamese tabby kittens to meet the demand. This occurrence was likely an unplanned one, like most animal hybrids. It’s believed Siamese tabby mix cats originated in the United Kingdom sometime in the early 1940s. They are less stand-offish than many other breeds and are the most content when cuddled up to their person, and they usually have a favorite in the household. The affable nature of "Sam and Tabby" mix cats is another reason they are coveted by pet owners. Siamese cats have always proved popular with pet owners, so fans of the Siamese breed were fascinated by this attractive and affectionate newcomer. Why Are Siamese And Tabby Mix Cats So Popular?Ĭat aficionados appreciate the tabby point Siamese cat’s physical beauty and agreeable personality. Let’s take an in-depth look at what you can expect when you adopt a Siamese tabby as a pet. Their personalities are purrfect if you prefer a pet who is always happy to engage with you! However, if you’re in the market for an affectionate and intelligent cat, take a look you may want to consider a Siamese tabby mix. There are many breeds to choose from, and making a decision can be daunting. It's always a good idea to research which breed of cat would fit best with your lifestyle. ![]() ![]() ![]() If you are looking for an objective analysis of both the editors, look at their origins and the philosophy behind their respective designs. nowadays, it doesn't anymore.īoth are however a topic of religious discussions among the programmer and superuser community users, and in that respect, both are excellent for starting flame wars if put in contact (in the same sentence / question). whatnot in one package (emacs) made some sense. In the old days having a email client, ftp client, tetris. Emacs's approach of being an editor which wants to be an IDE (or should I say, an OS), but is not quite, is IMHO, outdated. Personally, I prefer vim - it is small, does what it's supposed to do, and when I wish a full blown IDE I open VS. excellent support for GNU tools (the bunch of them).On the downside, vimscript is relatively similar to today's dynamic languages while elisp doesn't resemble pretty much anything) more powerful language for extending it (elisp is a full blown language, and in emacs you can practically redefine everything while in vim you cannot redefine build in functions of the editor.Though there is evil-mode which emulates vim behavior. non modal by default (most of today's editors have taken this approach).can be made portable (emacs has some problems with that).one central repository of scripts, plugins, color schemes.more active scripting community - internal language: vimscript.better as a simple editor (fewer keys required for simple tasks).It's easier to learn.Įven though I use Emacs all day every day (and love it) unless you intend to spend a lot of time in the program you choose I would pick vim It recognizes that most of the time you are reading/editing not typing and makes that portion faster. It's not quite so editable, but it's still far better than most text editors. You can work with the basic setup if you are on someone else's machine. You open up a file do a quick edit and then quit. With Vim, it's almost always pre-installed. You can make it into anything you want it to be. You won't be able to use other peoples emacs versions easily and it won't just be installed. You will be annoyed when you don't have access to it and constantly change your config. It takes weeks and weeks till you will be happy with it and then you will learn new stuff all the time. ![]() You write your own extensions, use it for note-taking, organization, games, programming, shell access, file access, listening to music, web browsing. With Emacs you are expected to have it open 24/7 and live inside the program, almost everything you do can be done from there.

Thus, the ILEC sale will immediately reduce Lumen's annual free cash flow by $500 million or more. Even if Lumen were to use all of the deal proceeds to pay down debt (thereby reducing interest expense), this would at best offset half of the lost cash flow. Lumen hasn't been investing much in these states, so it has been generating roughly $1 billion in annual pre-tax free cash flow from this part of its business, holding working capital constant. Source: Lumen September 2022 Investor Presentation. Lumen estimates that the sale of that business will reduce the company's adjusted EBITDA by $350 million this quarter ($1.4 billion annualized). ![]() Indeed, the ILEC sale comes with a major drawback: the operations Lumen sold to Apollo have been a huge cash cow in recent years. Given how dramatically Lumen stock has tanked in recent weeks, investors appear to be treating the divestitures (and particularly the Apollo deal) as a net negative. And even after these debt paydowns, I estimate that Lumen would have around $2.5 billion of cash that it could use for further debt reduction or other purposes. In total, these moves would reduce Lumen's debt from $29.4 billion as of June 30 to around $22.7 billion. The company also announced that it will redeem approximately $317 million of debt scheduled to mature between 20 in the next few weeks. Since closing the ILEC sale, Lumen has repurchased another $3.07 billion of debt for approximately $2.9 billion. Lumen likely used the remaining $1.6 billion to repay the $800 million it had drawn on its credit facility as of June 30 and replenish its cash balance. The company also repurchased $390 million of public debt at a slight discount to par. Soon after the LatAm sale closed, the company's Level 3 Financing subsidiary repaid $700 million of its term loan. Lumen has begun to use the proceeds to pay down debt. Given that Lumen entered 2022 with $2.9 billion of federal NOLs, I suspect that it will incur less than $1 billion of deal-related cash taxes, putting its net proceeds a bit higher. Earlier this year, management estimated that discretionary proceeds would total around $7 billion after tax. Thus, Lumen generated pre-tax net cash proceeds of about $8 billion from these two deals. After closing adjustments, pension plan contributions, and approximately $1.5 billion of debt and finance lease assumption, net proceeds came to $5.3 billion. Last Monday, Lumen closed on an even bigger asset sale, divesting its ILEC (incumbent local exchange carrier) business in 20 states to affiliates of Apollo Global ( APO) for total consideration of $7.5 billion. The company divested its Latin American operations to alternative investment firm Stonepeak for $2.7 billion in cash. On August 1, Lumen completed the first of its two major asset sales. The recent plunge in Lumen stock represents a fantastic buying opportunity. Investors shouldn't fear the near-term earnings and cash flow headwinds that Lumen faces. ![]() Ironically, Lumen just completed a pair of divestitures that generated a sizable cash windfall and improved the business' long-term growth profile. Furthermore, its already-high dividend yield has ballooned to 14.9%, based on the stock's Friday closing price of $6.70. This sharp decline has left Lumen stock trading at its lowest level in more than three decades. Lumen stock has lost nearly half of its value this year, including a 31% slide just in the past month. Rising interest rates, inflation, and the slowing global economy have caused the telecom company to fall even further out of favor with investors.

In 1963, Kotobukiya changed its name to "Suntory", taken from the name of the whisky it produces, which itself was derived from the English "Sun" (referencing "akadama") + Tory, the anglicized version of Torii's name. At the time, a trip abroad was considered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. In 1961, Kotobukiya launched the "Drink Torys and Go to Hawaii" campaign. Production began in December 1924 and five years later Suntory Whisky Shirofuda (White Label), the first single malt whisky made in Japan, was sold.ĭue to shortages during World War II, Kotobukiya was forced to halt its development of new products, but in 1946 it re-released Torys Whisky, which sold well in post-war Japan. The store became the Kotobukiya company in 1921 to further expand its business and in 1923, Torii built Japan's first malt whisky distillery Yamazaki Distillery. In 1907, the store began selling a fortified wine called Akadama Port Wine (Akadama literally meaning "red ball," a euphemism for the sun). Suntory was started by Shinjirō Torii ( 鳥井 信治郎, Torii Shinjirō), who first opened his store Torii Shōten ( 鳥井商店) in Osaka on February 1, 1899, to sell imported wines.

Ĭhromecast devices are dongles that are powered by connecting the device to an external power adapter or USB port using a USB cable. If a television's HDMI ports support the Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) feature, pressing the cast button will also result in the video-capable Chromecast automatically turning on the TV and switching the television's active audio/video input using the CEC command "One Touch Playback". When no content is streamed, video-capable Chromecasts display a user-personalizable content feed called "Backdrop" that can include featured and personal photos, artwork, weather, satellite images, weather forecasts, and news. In both cases, playback is initiated through the "cast" button on the sender device. Main article: Google Cast § Operation A first-generation Chromecast plugged into the HDMI port of a TVĪll Chromecast devices offer at least two methods to stream content: the first employs mobile and web apps that support the Google Cast technology the second, which applies to video models, allows mirroring of content from the web browser Google Chrome running on a personal computer, as well as content displayed on some Android devices. Development on the product began in 2012 late that year, Bakar brought home a beta version of the product for Hindie to test. After joining Google in 2011 to work on products that "would change how people used their TVs", Bakar pitched the idea for the Chromecast. Bakar found the whole process inefficient and wanted to build a phone-based interface that would allow video to play on a large display through a small hardware device. She took these steps because she found television interfaces difficult to use to search for content. Using her laptop, she would search for a film to watch on a streaming service and add it to her queue, before closing her laptop and using a gaming device to play the film on a television. His inspiration for the product came around 2008 after noticing the film-viewing tendencies of his wife Carla Hindie. From Chromecast's launch to May 2015, it handled more than 1.5 billion stream requests.Īccording to Google, the Chromecast was originally conceived by engineer Majd Bakar.

Content can be mirrored to video models from the Google Chrome web browser on a personal computer or from the screen of some Android devices. The user can control playback with a mobile device or personal computer through mobile and web apps that support the Google Cast protocol, or by issuing commands via Google Assistant later models introduced an interactive user interface and remote control. The devices, designed as small dongles, can play Internet- streamed audio-visual content on a high-definition television or home audio system.
