![]() ![]() This tabby variety is the most unique and can be difficult to identify as a tabby because there are no obvious spots or stripes. In fact, experts aren’t quite sure whether spotted tabby cats developed from mackerel tabbies or whether they simply have different genes. Spotted tabbies have bright spots of varying size all over their sides which can be difficult to distinguish from the mackerel tabby pattern. Tabby cats are primarily known for their stripes, but they can also have spots. They have a random series of dark and light orange swirls, much like a bullseye. These cats have bold, swirling patterns on their backs that resembling the marbling you’d see in a cake. While the mackerel tabby may be the quintessential tiger cat, the classic tabby is the most common. Though they may look like tiger stripes, they actually branch out from a single stripe running down the cat’s spine which creates a pattern that resembles a fish skeleton, hence the name “mackerel.” 2. ![]() In an ideal example of the pattern, the stripes are evenly spaced with no broken lines. The mackerel tabby is the iconic “tiger cat” with narrow stripes running parallel down the length of its body. When you hear the phrase “orange tabby” this is probably the variety you picture. Now that you have a better idea of what physical characteristics define the orange tabby, let’s take a closer look at each of the five tabby patterns. Though each orange tabby is different, tabbies in general have specific characteristics that are easily identified. In other cats, the striping is much more subtle or appears only on the cat’s legs and tail. In some orange tabbies, the stripes may be bold and clearly visible running down the length of the cat’s back and body. While tabby cats come in an array of patterns, most have some degree of striping on their coats. The tabby pattern comes in five different varieties: The term tabby refers to the combination of stripes, spots, and swirls which cover the cat’s body.ĭepending on the breed of cat and its individual genetics, the tabby pattern can be localized to patches or certain body parts, or it could cover the entire body of the cat. What Makes Orange Tabby Cats So Special?Īll cats are beautiful, but orange tabby cats are known for their colorful coats and unique pattern. Click here to read our review of the Basepaws cat DNA test kit. Wish you could learn more about the genes that make your cat special? Cat DNA testing could be the answer. That being said, there are some interesting facts about orange tabbies you should know. How can you not love a ginger cat, especially one with tiger stripes?īecause the orange tabby is not a specific breed of cat, it’s difficult to make overarching generalizations about things like temperament and personality. Tabbies are known for their striped coats and, while they come in a wide variety of colors, the orange tabby is uniquely beautiful. While the term “tabby” doesn’t refer to a specific breed of cat, it does represent one of the most common coat patterns seen in the world of cats – both wild and domestic. The orange tabby cat is not a breed, but it is certainly one of the most iconic (and some would say cutest) cats out there. What do famous cats like Garfield, Morris, and Milo have in common? They’re all orange tabby cats. ![]() Then there’s the vocal problem with Swizz’ rapping – occasional shoutouts don’t let you hear enough of him to notice but entire songs expose his vocal tone in an unflattering light. Keeping it simple may be the best way to go when you’re inexperienced but even a simple rap doesn’t need to rhyme “haters” with “haters.” The phrase jacking is also in effect here as Swizzy references the hip-hop classic “The Message” but it comes off weak since he doesn’t have the deep resonant voice of Melle Mel. The first is that Swizz Beatz’ rhyme writing style is about as A to B as you can get. How I keep from goin under when I rock for ten summers” It’s like a jungle sometimes, it make me wonder You see me on top so you wanna see me fall See you never thought you’d see a young fly nigga ball When I see you in the street, I don’t speak to you haters I gotta stunt for you haters, I make my paper you haters Is it the Phantom, nah, or the lime green drop Then brush my teeth, then I put on my necklace Wake up in the morning and my chef cook me breakfast Man I’ma pose so you can picture me doin my thing Let me pose so you can picture me doin my thing Now I’ma pose so you can picture me doin my thing “Get your cameras out, get your flash right Even though “Lovely Day” is one of the most oversampled tracks of all time, it’s still a beat worth jacking for a track – the problem is that Swizz’ rap adds nothing of substance to it whatsoever: “Take a Picture” exemplifies the problem. Swizz Beatz has a tendency to spit catchphrases from the greatest hits of other New York rappers from Akinyele to Method Man, but he hasn’t really developed a style beyond that. Honestly he’s not even Diddy – and he rips the first two lines from “It’s All About the Benjamins” right at the start of “Money in the Bank.” Props for staying thematically true to the greed driven pursuit, but it still seems creatively weak. Lyrically speaking Kasseem Dean is no Daniel Swain or Kanye West. Oh that’s right – we haven’t talked about the negative side yet. Why don’t you pull it out my pants or PUT IT IN YOUR MOUTH!” Talkin about – uhh, I wanna ride in your Jag! She sittin at the bar and she lookin so sad Give me your number I bet she ‘gon call yaĪnything is good cause it’s better than she had One thing’s for sure – if you’re not paying anybody else for vocals or beats you can stack a lot more “Money in the Bank”: It worked for Danny, it worked for Kanye, hell a lot of self-produced rappers have been very successful in hip-hop over the years. Best of all as a promotional gimmick it’s hard to beat being a “One Man Band Man.” If you do your own beats AND YOUR OWN RAPPING then you’re truly in control of the outcome. Self-production is another plus, because he can pick exactly the right kind of beats for his style and make sure they blend perfectly. He’s not spitting with the cleanest diction ever, but he’s far from embarassing himself. On the positive side Swizz has picked up a thing or two from producing for so many other rappers. ![]() There are plusses and minuses to this change. It’s not as if Swizz Beatz hasn’t released a solo album before but last time he was doing the producing and letting other people do the rapping. When I drop beats I’m the one man band manĬash rules everything around me cream get the money I’m comin through your block with the new two seater “Smoke good eat good, drink good fuck goodĬome into the club stuntin like how you should Swizz dropping a hot single for a rapper is a known factor, and we’re all used to hearing him shout himself out on the tracks, but when “It’s Me Bitches” hit the airwaves it was quite a revelation. While Swizz Beatz definitely has the quantity when it comes to doing tracks, it’s the QUALITY that matters most, and the quality of Swizz’ beats has continued to improve. I must confess I once referred to Swizz Beatz’ production style as “dropping a Casio keyboard on the floor and jumping up and down on top of it.” Over the years though one can discern just how much Beatz has changed and grown in style. Swizz keeps coming back with more and more hits. While doing a little research for this review I was astonished by just how many hits Swizz Beatz produced I had forgotten about. Just Blaze, Kanye West, Timbaland, Alchemist, DJ Premier, Rick Rock, and Swizz Beatz – just a few of many names who do it and then do it again. “We keep coming back with more and more hits.” It’s been 18 years since Nice & Smooth crooned those words but many of today’s top hip-hop producers fit the description. Pessimists tend to think the opposite: "This may be my fault, this may never end, and this may destroy my life." Optimists tend to display several mental responses when they encounter difficulty: "This is not personal against me, this is not forever, and this will not destroy my future." Research at the Mitchell Center also found optimism was a key to POW resilience. Zinsser echoes that approach, teaching West Point cadets to ask, "How can this make me stronger?" Moore says that, in a crisis, there is value in pausing to ask, "What meaning can I find in this?" One ran around his cell in circles for hours at a time, not out of frustration, but to return to health and fitness after ejection injuries. Several learned new languages, taught to them by their fellow POWs. One of them designed a house in his head, which he in fact built when he returned home. They found ways not just to survive, but to thrive. Instead, they created productive goals for their experience. "They became experts at not letting the experience frame them," he said. ![]() Moore spent decades studying the Hanoi Hilton POWs, and their ability to compartmentalize the challenges of their daily existence was key to their resilience. Moore asserts the Vietnam War POWs are "poster children" for finding purpose in prolonged adversity. Mitchell Center for POW Studies at Naval Air Station Pensacola, Florida.

"What do you want to gain from this experience?" is a good question to ask yourself, says neuropsychologist Dr. Those things you push outside yourself," he said.įocusing on what you can control includes actively looking for ways to put the unexpected problem to work for you. You draw a mental frame around the things you cannot control. His maternal grandmother and both of his parents had modeled strength and tenacity in overcoming severe poverty, and Alvarez drew on those memories: "Family stories of the adversities they faced had shaped my character and gave me backbone."Įmbracing the suck also meant unlearning the mantra of "men don't cry."Ĭombating boredom, frustration and uncertainty, Alvarez discovered that tearfully acknowledging his feelings allowed him to then focus his energy on what he could control.

At that time, Hispanic fighter pilots were rare in the U.S. about his early career as a Navy fighter pilot in the 1960s. "I was on track to get into the astronaut program," recalls Everett Alvarez Jr. Militarily speaking, I would imagine if you're fighting in a difficult situation, it's never any good, but nevertheless you have to embrace the moment somehow.Taylor Baldwin Kiland and Peter Fretwell are the coauthors of " Lessons from the Hanoi Hilton: Six Characteristics of High-Performance Teams" (Naval Institute Press, 2017). We're trying to continue to move forward. And then the message could not be more appropriate than it is right now regarding the start of the season. "It's a combination of utilizing us, the military and getting the message out there. We've been working with the military in order to be able to utilize it, where we can sell it, use it for our team phrase, sell it through and split some of the proceeds with 'Respect 90' (Maddon's foundation) and also wherever the military money going to go, I'm not 100 percent sure yet. I'd never heard about it before," Maddon said. "It's a military phrase for probably the last 20 years. On Friday, T-shirts surfaced in the Cubs' clubhouse with the slogan "embrace the suck."

Multimodality is very important to the kind of intelligence found in humans and animals. Being able to process multiple modalities enables deep learning models to take on much more complicated tasks. Text-to-image generators have another interesting characteristic: they combine multiple data types in a single model. As a result, they are much more flexible in generating images for various descriptions. The sheer size of their training datasets (which is only possible because there’s no need for manual labeling) and variability of the captioning schemes enables these models to find all kinds of intricate patterns between textual and visual information. Unlike older text-to-image models, which required well-annotated pairs of images and descriptions, these models use large datasets of loosely captioned images that already exist on the internet. Models like OpenAI’s DALL-E 2, Google’s Imagen, and Stability AI’s Stable Diffusion have displayed the power of unsupervised learning. While LLMs continued to make progress in 2022, we also saw other trends in unsupervised learning techniques gaining traction.įor example, there were phenomenal advances in text-to-image models this year. There has been tremendous progress in this field, in recent years, especially in LLMs, which are mostly trained on large sets of raw data gathered from around the internet.
