In times of need or crisis, Leopard would empower and awaken the mediums' Third Eye (陰陽眼), in order to commune with the Rukai tribes and lead them to settle elsewhere better. In the past, Rukai spirit mediums such as Oracles ( barakalai) and Witch Doctors ( taraivigi) with considerable spiritual power can sense the clouded leopard prowling in the glades and forests of the mountains. In his role as pathfinder, Leopard also leaps alongside other spirits to guide them through the spirit paths to their destinations. Imbued with a sliver of the Master of the Dead's spiritual power, Leopard travels through the Spirit Paths darting from place to place in mere moments. Possessed of keen intellect and sharp instincts, Leopard is a quick learner and swift on his paws. Subservient to the King of Hundred Pacers Aidridringane, an omnipresent spirit of immense power, Leopard carries out its will providing guidance to the Rukai people both in life and the afterlife. Likulau is an aboriginal clouded leopard spirit hailing from the Rukai legends. However, at the heart of his personality, he is a passionate and sensitive person." Background He doesn’t know Mandarin Chinese so communication can be difficult, leading him to come off as cold at times. He often does things without thinking but believes in the conviction of his morals and is extremely determined. Sensing the potential within Liao, he wanted to convince Liao to deal with the problems that have been troubling his people for a long time. The leopard brought spirits of the dead to view a performance and met Liao there.

How is Centurion different from other innocence groups?Ĭenturion was the first organization in the world established to free the wrongfully incarcerated. To date, Centurion has freed 63 men and women who were serving life or death sentences for crimes they did not commit. He made the choice to dedicate his life to freeing the innocent, and founded the first innocence organization in the world. McCloskey received requests for help from others who claimed they were wrongfully convicted. De Los Santos was exonerated and freed from prison in 1983.Īfter Mr. After several years of investigation and legal proceedings, Jim, in partnership with attorney Paul Casteleiro got Mr. De Los Santos’ case, Jim spent his personal time and savings to investigate the case. De Los Santos claimed to be innocent of the crime, and after reviewing the case record, Jim came to believe him and decided to help him.Īfter reading the entire record of Mr. There, he met Jorge De Los Santos, who was convicted of murder and serving a life sentence. McCloskey chose to serve for a year as a student chaplain at the Trenton State Prison. While attending Princeton Theological Seminary, Mr. In 1980, Jim McCloskey, Centurion’s founder, felt the call to leave the corporate world and enter the ministry. Jim McCloskey established Centurion as a 501(c)3 organization in 1983 after the exoneration of Jorge De Los Santos. ![]() Centurion was the first innocence organization in the world. Right now I’m going to suggest we get 1 of each card, and test with our own software, however it would be nice to have some actual FP64 benchmarks to show. The use case is computing linear algebra, specifically complex matrix operations. ![]() I would like to find a FP64 benchmark that doesn’t involve any ML/Deep Learning/AI, as I don’t want the additional tensor cores in the A6000 to impact the results, as these will be largely useless for our use case. However, I have been unable to find any FP64 benchmarks that have tested both the A6000 and the 3090 card, to confirm the numbers in the specifications. If the statement above is true I’d recommend the A6000, as it has much lower TDP than 2x 3090, making it easier to cool, and add cards later on. For example, on a GTX 780 Ti, the FP64 performance is 1/24 FP32. So vendors like NVIDIA and AMD do not cram FP64 compute cores in their GPUs. This is because they are targeted towards gamers and game developers, who do not really care about high precision compute. The GA102 graphics processor is a large chip with a die area of 628 mm and 28,300 million transistors. Built on the 8 nm process, and based on the GA102 graphics processor, the card supports DirectX 12 Ultimate. My colleagues doesn’t know anything about GPU’s and I’ve only built them as a hobby for gaming, so I was the best candidate (.įor our price range, I’ve narrowed it down to either 3090 or A6000.Īs I see it, the VRAM to cost ratio is basically identical for the 3090 and A6000, and the FP64 performance to cost ratio is also somewhat identical for the two cards. GPUs, at least consumer grade, are not built for high performance FP64. The RTX A6000 is an enthusiast-class professional graphics card by NVIDIA, launched on October 5th, 2020.

To check current processing times by service center, you can check the article Check USCIS H1B Visa Processing times If there are no complexities with the case, you may get a decision much faster in 2 months or less. ![]() If the applicant gets an RFE ( Request for Evidence), then, in that case, it can take beyond 6 months as well. It means that roughly after you get the receipt notice, you should have the decision on your petition within four months. See the below screenshot from the USCIS website based on historical processing times for the last 5 years.įor FY 2023 (until the end of December 2022), as you can see in the below screenshot is about 3.9 months. Also, every case is unique and there can be different processing times for different cases.īased on USCIS historical processing times, from the last 5 years (FY 2017 to FY 2022), it can take anywhere from 2 to 5 months for the H1B petition filed in Regular processing using form I-129. It depends on the filing location and the load at the USCIS processing center. There is no fixed time or SLA ( service level agreement) time defined by USCIS for H1B Regular processing. How long does USCIS take for H1B Regular processing? There is no filing of Form I-907 or additional premium processing fee, when you file in regular processing. In general, an employer would submit USCIS Form I-129 along with relevant H1B Filing Fee, and supporting documents as listed in H1B Filing Checklist by USCIS. It is typically when the applicant goes through the H1B lottery and files for an H1B petition after selection. If an employer or sponsor files an H1B petition with USCIS using the standard process and does not include an extra fee for faster processing, then the petition is said to be filed in Regular Processing. Now, let’s look at each of the processing types in detail H1B Regular Processing Time (cap-subject) Sometimes, USCIS also suspends premium processing during the start of the H1B season in April to handle the high volume, and they open the same in phases.
![]() In 1942, before the concept of rock and roll had been defined, Billboard magazine columnist Maurie Orodenker started to use the term to describe upbeat recordings such as "Rock Me" by Sister Rosetta Tharpe her style on that recording was described as "rock-and-roll spiritual singing". In 1934, the song "Rock and Roll" by the Boswell Sisters appeared in the film Transatlantic Merry-Go-Round. Various gospel, blues and swing recordings used the phrase before it became widely popular it was used in 1940s recordings and reviews of what became known as " rhythm and blues" music aimed at a black audience. A retired Welsh seaman named William Fender can be heard singing the phrase "rock and roll" when describing a sexual encounter in his performance of the traditional song " The Baffled Knight" to the folklorist James Madison Carpenter in the early 1930s, which he would have learned at sea in the 1800s the recording can be heard on the Vaughan Williams Memorial Library website. The phrase "rocking and rolling" originally described the movement of a ship on the ocean, but by the early 20th century was used both to describe the spiritual fervor of black church rituals and as a sexual analogy. The term is sometimes also used as synonymous with "rock music" and is defined as such in some dictionaries. The term "rock and roll" is defined by Greg Kot in Encyclopædia Britannica as the music that originated in the mid-1950s and later developed "into the more encompassing international style known as rock music". Sign commemorating the role of Alan Freed and Cleveland, Ohio, in the origins of rock and roll ![]() Some people believe that the music had a positive influence on the civil rights movement, because both Black American and White American teenagers enjoyed it. ![]() ![]() It is often portrayed in movies, fan magazines, and on television. Rock and roll had a polarizing influence on lifestyles, fashion, attitudes, and language. After the mid-1950s, electric bass guitars ("Fender bass") and drum kits became popular in classic rock. Classic rock and roll is usually played with one or two electric guitars (one lead, one rhythm) and a double bass (string bass). The beat is essentially a dance rhythm with an accentuated backbeat, almost always provided by a snare drum. These instruments were generally replaced or supplemented by guitar in the middle to late 1950s. In the earliest rock and roll styles, either the piano or saxophone was typically the lead instrument. By the mid-1960s, rock and roll had developed into "the more encompassing international style known as rock music, though the latter also continued to be known in many circles as rock and roll." For the purpose of differentiation, this article deals with the first definition. Īccording to journalist Greg Kot, "rock and roll" refers to a style of popular music originating in the United States in the 1950s. While rock and roll's formative elements can be heard in blues records from the 1920s and in country records of the 1930s, the genre did not acquire its name until 1954. It originated from African-American music such as jazz, rhythm and blues, boogie-woogie, gospel, jump blues, as well as country music. Rock and roll (often written as rock & roll, rock 'n' roll, or rock 'n roll) is a genre of popular music that evolved in the United States during the late 1940s and early 1950s.

When I look at the role, I don’t look at it as a superintendent role, I look at it as ‘I get to work with these amazing people who work for Marshall Public Schools and I get to meet all of these wonderful community members.’” In a March article from the Battle Creek Enquirer, former Board President Richard Lindsey acknowledged Jones played a key role in the annexation of the Albion School District and Marshall Public Schools in 2016. “We have a wonderful staff in the district. We get to go out to buildings and interact with the kids and interact with the teachers,” Jones added. “Also the kids and the interaction with the kids. That’s one of the many benefits of this role.” Jones added she is also inspired by being able to serve the students as a whole and being able to interact with them and the teachers who are involved in their learning development. There are a lot of great people, leaders and businesses that are really supportive of the school system and really supportive of our kids. Both communities have a lot to offer when you look at it. That to me alone, just having the two communities that we get to serve, is a wonderful thing. “Obviously we have an interesting history as a school system with bringing Albion into the system and serving both Albion and Marshall. “When I look at the district as a whole, I look at it as serving two communities,” Jones said. “It’s an honor and a blessing in how I look at it.” Jones added that she is driven and inspired by being able to serve two communities, being students and families in both Marshall and Albion. ![]() “I think that educating people’s children and educating our youth is a very important role,” said Jones. When reflecting on when she officially was hired into the permanent role, Jones commended the many who have supported her during the process and said she feels honored to now be serving in the role. After eight months, the Marshall Public Schools Board of Education unanimously agreed to hire Jones into the permanent role. It didn’t seem unnatural for me to fill into the role of interim, because it was something I wanted to do.” Jones was appointed interim superintendent in May 2021 after the departure of former Superintendent Randy Davis. I care about the people, I care about families, I care about our students. “So I think that’s just something that has come natural for me over the eight years, I’ve just always built really good relationships with the people that I work with. “I think with how I am as a leader and how I am as a person, I like to build a lot of personal relationships,” said Jones. Jones said the relationships she built over the eight years in that role has helped her transition into the superintendent role. Jones has been in the school system ever since her time at Jackson County ISD before coming over to Marshall Public Schools, where she served as the director of business operations for the district for eight years. I ended up changing and I’m not 100% sure why I changed, but it’s interesting that I ended up into the system in the career path of doing that.” After Jones graduated from EMU, she landed a job in Jackson as a business manager for a construction company before being hired at Jackson County Intermediate School District in business operations. That was part of the reason why I wanted to go to school to be a special education teacher when I started. “My aunt was a special education teacher in an early childhood role and she worked for Jackson ISD. “I always wanted to work in some sort of line in education and be a part of the school system,” Jones said. Even though her master’s degree is in business from Spring Arbor University, Jones originally went to school at Eastern Michigan University to be a special education teacher when she was an undergraduate before making the switch to the business field.
