![]() I found this recipe to be very tasty but perhaps in need of a bit of thickening which I solved by adding some toasted flour I'd dissolved in cold water. (My eyes were watering, so I plastic wrapped the bowl and set it aside - forgetting to photograph it.) ![]() Not show here, I also cut two medium onions into 1 in. Also rough cut two green bell peppers and three ribs of celery, and finely chop one bunch of scallions (about 3/4 cup). Start by preparing two pounds of chicken breast (about one whole breast) into rough 1/2 in. In this example, I'll be preparing a chicken okra stew, but feel free to experiment with seafood (like oysters and crab or shrimp) or a vegetarian (stir-fried eggplant is fun to try) version. The only essential one is probably okra (I use two pounds of the cut frozen variety in this recipe). There's a variety of ingredients that can be used in this okra stew. I tend to make this in fairly large quantities when I know that I'll be too busy to cook for the next several nights. Let's call it okra stew (to avoid confusion with gumbo). For those times when I do not have the patience to prepare a true gumbo, I do this faster variant that lacks the complexity, but captures the bare essence of gumbo. Unfortunately, it also takes a long time (for me) to make, starting with homemade stock and stewing for hours as ingredients are prepared and added. Gumbo is an amazing thickened soup that has layers upon layers of flavor.

Moreno M, Riddle K, Jenkins MC, Singh AP, Zhao Q, Eickhoff J. And it’s SOOOOOO helpful that it tells him where to brush. Instead I now say ‘let’s play the turtle game!’, which sounds way more fun! He enjoys not knowing where it’s going to start. Then I found the Turtle Timer! We’ve had it now for about a week and it has really helped! For one thing, I no longer have to say ‘time to brush your teeth’, which was always met with resistance. They didn’t seem to offer anything different from a regular timer. ![]() I searched Amazon for a tooth brushing timer and found a lot of 2-min timers but most had nothing that would help remind him to switch to a different area of his mouth. My phone was a big distraction as he just fiddled with all the alarm sounds. Solved: Is it possible to have the timer display the of hours, minutes, seconds until it gets to 0. He might keep the brush in his mouth for 2 mins but he might neglect to brush all the areas of his mouth. We tried using a regular kitchen timer, or my phone timer, but both had drawbacks. If we helped him we all ended up stressed out. He hated brushing his teeth and wouldn’t do a good job of it himself. We had so much stress over teeth-brushing with our 8 year old. Never has a child gadget (toy) been this effective for this little money, I feel like I stumbled on the secret treasure of parenting, gifting me a few moment of peace in the nightly bedtime routine. I purposely waited over a month to post this review because I was sure the novelty was going to wear off, but instead it seems like quality toothbrushing has become habitualized. Now there are times when they seem too quiet and independent that I get suspicious and check in, only to find them brushing the corresponding quadrant as the turtle EVERY time. The different legs light up to easily correspond to the different quadrants so that both my 6 and 3 year olds only needed one set of instructions before picking up on the idea. I never write reviews, but I am compelled to share that this silly little toy has completely changed our nightly toothbrushing ritual from bargaining, whining, and so so many prompts to “brush longer” and make sure to get the back”, and “just give me the toothbrush already” to. I purchased this product for my 4 little cousins who are learning how to properly brush their teeth. This product is a cute and excellent learning tool. (I know because I scoured the internet.) It also came with a little tooth brush and personalized note. This product is the only one like it on the market. Which is good, because the ADA recommends starting in a different tooth quadrant every time you brush your teeth (because we humans tend to get lazy with the last two quadrants when we are brushing our teeth). ![]() ALSO for every new “session” a different flipper starts blinking first. Each flipper blinks for 30 seconds (I timed them) for a total of 2 minutes, which is the brushing time the American Dental Association (ADA) recommends. First 30 seconds = 1 blink, second 30 seconds = 2 blinks, third 30 seconds = 3 blinks, fourth 30 seconds = 4 blinks 4) Oral health: The ultimate reason to buy this product. 3) Education: The flippers (turtles don’t have fins) light up in primary colors to teach colors, and they blink to teach counting. The battery cover is screw locked so your kids aren’t going to pull out the batteries and eat them. 1) Asthetics: It’s cute 2) Safety: It’s easy to put in and take out the required batteries (batteries not included). Y’all need to buy this right here for your kids. ![]() The Output switch toggles between mono and stereo (Dual) processing. Its influence on the sound varies considerably depending on the amp model used but can add (or subtract) ”edge” or ”crispness.” Presence is an additional tone control for mid/high frequencies in the power amp stage. For example, increasing EQ levels can, in some cases, also increase the amount of distortion. As on a real-world amplifier, Amp’s EQ parameters interact with each other - and with the rest of Amp’s parameters - in non-linear and sometimes unpredictable ways. The Bass, Middle and Treble knobs are EQ controls that adjust the timbre of the sound. ![]() When using the Blues, Heavy and Bass models, high Volume levels can also add considerable distortion. Higher Gain settings result in a more distorted sound. Although Gain and Volume work together to determine Amp’s overall level, Gain is the primary control for the distortion amount. Gain adjusts the level of input to the preamplifier, while Volume adjusts the output stage of the power amplifier. This makes it very easy to quickly change the overall character of your sound without having to make numerous adjustments. Bass is modeled after a rare PA from the ’70s which has become popular with bass players due to its strong low end and ”fuzz” at high volumes.Īlthough the real-world versions of these amplifiers all have unique parameters, Live’s Amp effect uses the same set of controls for each model.Heavy is based on the ”Vintage” channel of the same amp and is also ideal for metal and grunge sounds.Lead is based on the ”Modern” channel of a high-gain amp popular with metal guitarists.This is perhaps the best known rock amp of all time. Rock is modeled after a classic 45 watt amp from the ’60s.This classic amp is popular with country, rock and blues guitarists. Blues is based on a ’70s-era guitar amp with a bright character.Boost is based on the ”Tremolo” channel of the same amp, and is great for edgy rock riffs.This amp was widely used by guitarists of the British Invasion. ![]()

Peter Cullen, the original voice of Optimus Prime fields questions from the audience during TFcon 2022. "Frank Welker, one of the great voice actors of all time, he'd do Megatron and like five other voices," said Cullen.

"We looked at the script, and it said 'Ironhide.' I actually played Ironhide in the cartoon series as well." The news that Optimus Prime will be voiced by Chris Hemsworth in Transformers One has raised some eyebrows, but it sounds like theres actually a very good. "When I first auditioned for Michael, a young gal was going to read the lines of the other character," Cullen said. Despite Cullen's history with the series, he still had to audition for the role of Optimus Prime like everyone else.

The same signal is used for a player off the court at service contact. When a player is at fault, the referee will indicate with an open hand which player is at fault. When a player commits any line violation, the same signal is used. There is no sweeping arm, hand, or finger motion. The signal is given by extending the arm and pointing to the middle of the line with the index finger. In this situation, the referee should use the arm on the offending team’s side and maintain a stationary signal. One of the most common hand signals is practiced when a ball completely passes beneath the net between the two net posts. Volleyball referees use hand signals to indicate various plays and rules violations to players and spectators. The signal should not look like a touchdown signal. The referee should be able to see their partner, the court, and the benches beside them. Their hands are open with palms facing behind them, and they brush the fingertips once with the fingers of the opposite hand. When a player touches a ball on the side, it goes out of bounds the referee signals with their forearms perpendicular to the floor, elbows at a 90-degree angle, and a comfortable distance apart. If the ball goes out of bounds, the referee will blow their whistle to stop play and signal for a change of possession. This signal indicates that the ball is in play and that the players can continue to compete. The position of the thumb next to the index finger indicates that the ball is in play. The referee will extend their arm with their hand open toward the court and point 45 degrees away from their body near the intersection of the attack line and sideline. One of the most common hand signals is used to indicate that the ball is in play. ![]() When Ball Is In PlayĪ referee will use hand signals to communicate with players and other officials when the ball is in play. When making this signal, always keep this in mind so that the players know what is happening on the court. It’s essential to avoid making the signal look like the catch signal, as this could confuse. The arm is bent less at the elbow, then extended with the palm up. The improper service signal starts at the thigh. This occurs when the server doesn’t execute the service properly, for instance, by failing to hit the ball over the net. ![]() Volleyball referees use specific hand signals to indicate penalties. By using a one-handed signal, the referee can ensure that the players can still understand the call. This is used to indicate to the players that there is a delay in the service. The hand signal for the delay in service is raising both arms above your head. This is because these players are less likely to be familiar with the standard hand signals used by referees. The one-handed signal is used for game delays in matches involving players aged 14 and under. By using the same digits on each hand, the referee can ensure that the players are aware of the infraction regardless of which side of the court they are on. This hand signal indicates that the server has not touched the ball within eight seconds, causing a delay in play. According to USA official volleyball, the Volleyball hand signals are shown when Delay in Service This hand signal lets everyone know that it’s about to be their turn to serve. Once the whistle is blown, the arm should be brought to the opposite chest. It is crucial that the palm is facing forward and that the whistle is blown before the signal is made. This is the most crucial signal for volleyball referees, as it starts each rally. In the USA, the first referee in a Volleyball game officially uses the beckon for serve signal to start each rally. ![]() So, let’s look at some of the most important hand signals for volleyball referees!

How long does it take to write a CV?ĭepends on your skills and approach to writing. Most often, employers will ask to provide a list of professional references later in the application process if these are warranted. No, you shouldn’t add a list of references to a CV unless this is one of the job application requirements. So for some, it’s just safer to reject candidates sharing personal details altogether than deal with minimal (but possible) accusations later on. When you voluntarily give it away, it puts them in a position where their hiring decisions might be questioned for bias (positive or negative). Most employers have anti-discrimination practices in place, prohibiting them to ask candidates about personal information. No, you should never put your age or date of birth on your CV. Most recruiters prefer this CV format to alternatives – functional and combinational CVs. A chronological CV format helps the employer understand your career progression and duration of employment in different roles, plus it lets them easily estimate your current level of seniority. In this case, you present your career history from the current (most recent) role to the earliest one. The best CV format is (reverse) chronological. Provide a curated version of your career history - such that explains why you are qualified for the new role. However, don’t list all work experience during this period unless they are relevant to the job you are after.

Or, like me, perhaps you’re just looking to up the game on your computer sound ysstem. Imagine your parents can’t hear their TV’s internal speakers all that well, or that you’re in a smaller room and want upgraded sound. ![]() Why Should You Care About the Orb Audio Booster 1 2.1 Speaker System? Both the purchase and setup process were simply fantastic. They have a quick setup guide that allowed me to rocking tunes in mere minutes. They have people that will hold your hand through the setup process. You just can’t fake that many five-star reviews over that many years. The experience of buying online from Orb is as good as any as you will find on the Internet, and that has been true for over 20 years.Quick setup guide? Check? Small speaker stands? Check? Everything is included in your shipment. Everything you need to get rocking is included in the Orb Audio Booster 1. Optical cable? Check.For me, I set a reasonable level and then used iTunes on my screen to change the volume more often than not, but all options are on the table. You can adjust the level on the unit via a nice-feeling volume knob when you like, or use the remote. It comes with a Bluetooth adaptor, which is how I connected to the unit. It has a small remote that is easy to use. The Orb Audio Booster “amp” is small and very easy to set up. This little amp can take traditional optical or analog inputs.There were less-expensive options and I could absolutely see why people might go that route, but the Polk sub matched to this system needed about 15 seconds of adjustment on volume to match the Orb speakers, plus another 30 seconds to find a good crossover point and I was off to the races. It was only a few bucks more, making it worth the extra investment. Depending on your room and system needs, you can select from a number of powerful yet small subs for this 2.1 speaker system. I opted for the Polk PSW111, which is an 8-inch sub with 300 watts of power.I had a dark gray or “hand polished steel” finish for mine, which looked great on my desk under my curved LG 4K monitor. Orb Audio’s round transducers are a time-tested speaker design. They’re made of metal and come in all sorts of colors and finishes.What Makes the Orb Audio Booster 1 Special? Orb wins there by a country mile, but let’s dig into the deeper details… Orb Audio Booster 1 Reviewed installed with a big 4K HDTV How do the two systems compare? Certainly, not on price. I had a Cabasse The Pearl Keshi system ($3,000 for 2.1 including both Bluetooth and Airplay connectivity) to take on the same challenge. This system is very versatile, in that it can bring much more resolute and full-range sound to your TV, play music nicely in a mid-sized room, or function s a nearfield monitor system as I am using it. The Booster 1 is a $879 2.1 speaker system that comes with two small round Orb Audio speakers (with stands to allow them to sit on your desk), a Polk PSW111 subwoofer, and Orb Audio’s Booster amp complete with a Bluetooth adapter. One time-tested solution that I have found is from Internet AV retailer and speaker manufacturer Orb Audio. I have a 2.1 “invisible audio system” in my office that includes Nakymatone ECHT speakers and a Gray Sound S80 in-ceiling sub, but much like the 55-inch Samsung The Frame TV and the Crestron remote in my office, they get little use because they live in their own technical world that is pretty much disconnected from my MacBook Pro and 49-inch LG 4K curved monitor. Simply put, I spend nearly all day, every day listening to a crazy collection of music from a vast collection of many thousands of ripped Compact Discs over the years. One audiophile listening venue that I’ve struggled with recently, though, is nearfield computer audio. Music is often enjoyed via headphones, all sizes and shapes of Bluetooth speakers, laptop speakers, and smart speakers like the Amazon Alexa, not just on our main audiophile or home theater rig. The practice of only listening to music while parked in front of a big stereo system with massive speakers is a bit antiquated these days. ![]() Enter any resolution you want!
