![]() ![]() While Superior Grade amethyst is more rare, some people may prefer the lighter hue of the Prime Grade Amethyst over the dark rich violet colors of Superior Grade. The Prime Grade Amethyst collected from the Four Peaks mine possesses a lighter hue than the deep shades displayed in the Superior Grade gemstones. Slightly more common than the rare Superior Grade, 25% of all Arizona Amethyst mined is Prime Grade. We only use our Superior Grade Arizona Amethyst for our designer pieces that are crafted in either elegant gold or gorgeous platinum because there is a limited supply of these amazing gemstones.

I took these photos within an hour of the end of the rain. More rain fell upstream than at the gage shown above.Engineers didn’t count on the cumulative impact of insufficiently mitigated upstream development, some of which used beat-the-peak, hydrologic-timing surveys to avoid building detention basins.Planners used old (lower) Montgomery County rainfall data to determine the extent of the floodplain in their plats and plans.The developer hasn’t built any stormwater-detention-basin capacity to offset the increased runoff.Bulldozers compacted soil, limiting the rate of infiltration.We need an answer to that question before this development starts pouring concrete. How Can a 5-Year Rain Reach Almost as Far as a 100-Year Floodplain? The muck filled the wetlands for more than a mile downstream. But water coming from Royal Pines (right) is filled with sediment. Notice how water coming from the north (left) is clear. Contractors removed the silt fence last week. The developer removed it from the NW corner – where a neighbor has now flooded three times in two months. The SE corner of Royal Pines wasn’t the only part of the development missing silt fence. More Missing Silt Fence in NW Corner of Royal Pines From Harris County Flood Education Mapping Tool. The public also must foot the bill for increased water-purification costs. These shots also document the absence of silt fence on the eastern side of Royal Pines.Īll that silt will migrate down White Oak Creek and Caney Creek into the East Fork San Jacinto which the City of Houston just dredged at great public expense. Notice also how the floodwaters approach what appears to be some sort of water treatment facility in the upper right. Notice the water streaming through the cleared area and carrying away sediment downstream. The closer shot below shows water streaming through the soon-to-be subdivision and filling the Country Colony drainage ditch to overflowing. Think it’s just standing water? Think again. That big area filled with water, is a part of White Oak Creek cutting across Royal Pines. The water comes almost to the edge of the floodplain shown in the construction diagram above. Floodwaters from Creek Overflow Royal Pines If you were to project that line toward the lower right, it would roughly parallel the heavy black line that forms the eastern boundary of Country Colony, which you can see in the middle right of the photo below. I’ve circled the relevant portion in red. It’s the dotted line between Zone AE and Zone X. ![]() In the construction diagram below, the developer shows the edge of the 100-year flood plain. Now let’s look at how close that 5-year rain came to the 100-year flood line. NOAA Atlas 14 rainfall probabilities for Lake Houston Area. Harris County Flood Warning System hyetograph shows approximately 3.6 inches fell in two hours on 1/24/23.Ĭross-referencing that rate with NOAA’s Atlas-14 rainfall probability estimates for this area, we can see that 3.6 inches in 2 hours equals a 5-year rain. A check of nearby rain gages on the Harris County Flood Warning System, showed that the official gage at FM1485 and the San Jacinto East Fork recorded approximately 3.6 inches between 1 and 3 PM today. 5-Year RainĪ friend who lives a mile from Royal Pines recorded about 4″ on his rain gage for the full day. And missing silt fences let sediment escape into the wetlands that border the property. But floodwaters from White Oak creek approached the edge of the 100-year floodplain. According to Atlas-14 rainfall tables, that qualifies as a 5-year rainfall event. Between 1:00 and 3:00 PM on 1/24/23, approximately 3.6 inches of rain fell over Royal Pines in southeast Montgomery County. ![]() ![]() In both cases, CMake will not try to detect default system toolchain but will blindly use whatever you provide. This can be done both in the command line or in CMakeLists.txt before project() command: cmake. All you need to do is to put toolchain variables into a separate file (e.g.cmake) and set CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE variable to the path of that file. Second option is more elegant and is the preferred way of choosing the toolchain. In such a case you would probably want to put it into some kind of script. DCMAKE_C_COMPILER= -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER= -DCMAKE_AR= -DCMAKE_LINKER= etc.
![]() ![]() It helps developers code 2-4 times faster, drastically reduce the number of errors, unify SQL coding standards across teams, and safely operate with data. The add-in of our choice is dbForge SQL Complete, which was designed as the ultimate SSMS and Visual Studio add-in for code autocompletion, beautification, refactoring, and debugging. But how about more? Is it possible to improve on an already great product? Well, that's what add-ins are for. This is where the Refresh Local Cache feature makes it easy to refresh SQL IntelliSense.Īs you can see, all these features are very handy. As the user creates, for instance, a new table or view, this cache has to be updated in order to reflect the introduced changes. When a data source is opened in SSMS, IntelliSense caches its data. ![]() Any typo can be instantly located and corrected. The name of this feature speaks for itself. It is another fine contribution to the overall productivity.Ĭode outlining helps quickly collapse and show statements, which simplifies navigation across large documents. This is a convenient feature that helps match delimiters in the Database Engine Query Editor, match braces in the Analysis Services XMLA Query Editor, and match parentheses in the MDX and DMX editors. The quickly inserted reusable pieces of code are more than helpful at accelerating the daily work of a SQL developer. Once the mouse pointer hovers over an identifier, its declaration is instantly shown in a pop-up window. Quick Info allows getting tooltips that describe an identifier, such as a table or view name. This feature provides the user with information about the number, names, and sizes of parameters for a function or stored procedure. If there is more than one match, the user can pick one from the displayed suggestions list. IntelliSense types the rest of a variable, command, or function name once the user has entered enough characters to uniquely identify it. Here are the key features that make SQL developer's life far easier: Still, for a seasoned SQL developer, the native IntelliSense of SSMS leaves much to be desired. That is why we can see an abundance of add-ins and extensions that focus on even more sophisticated autocompletion and can at least double the daily performance of a developer.īut before we get acquainted with one of such add-ins, let's briefly recap the main features of the native SSMS IntelliSense and see what can be improved even further. ![]() Its completion and productivity features reduce our manual coding, which in turn helps us to either accomplish our tasks much faster or, if required, produce more output. Now, isn't IntelliSense one of the main reasons why so many people love SSMS? It provides the smart assistance we have been looking for. And that's how we become so picky when it comes to selecting tools for our daily work - for instance, such tools as autocompletion in SQL Server Management Studio. We all want to focus on more important matters at hand. ![]() We all want to get rid of monotonous tasks by automating and accelerating them. The answer to all of these questions is, naturally, no, no, and no. Is there a SQL developer who wouldn't love to make their daily coding simple and error-free? Would they resist smart assistance with suggestions and autocompletion that eliminate the need to memorize and type everything manually? Would they reject getting quick access to object and parameter information? ![]() ![]() ![]() la madera de arce (F) Many skateboards are made of maple.Muchas patinetas estn hechas de madera de arce.

Deep, moist, acidic soil results in the healthiest red maples.This map comes from the Spanish Ministry for Ecological Transition and Demographic Challenge Link to source. Despite their remarkable roots, red maples grow better in some conditions than others. When red maples grow in dry sites, a long taproot and short lateral roots develop. If the tree is placed in wet soil, it grows a short taproot and extensive lateral roots to soak up water at the surface. Adaptable roots help the red maple to cope with differing soil types. Red maples do well in sunny or shady spots, dry or wet soil, and high or low elevation.
