After graduating from the Wilton School system and Wittenberg University, Tim began his culinary career in Boulder, Colorado where he developed his skills as a chef before leaving his passion behind for corporate America.
He moved on to accept a position with IBM, but after 3 years, yearned to return to the culinary field. He enrolled at Johnson & Wales University where he completed his formal culinary education, graduating with high honors and numerous awards. He went on to work with the Emmy Award winning Chef, Ming Tsai, best known for his popular television show “Simply Ming.” Tim also developed strong skills in French cuisine during his years as a chef at the Four Star and Five Diamond L'Espalier Restaurant in Boston. There, he worked under Chef/Owner Frank McClelland, which helped him develop big flavors using unique ingredients and a combination of new and classic techniques. Tim also spent time as a stagiare in the kitchens of Le Bernardin, and Aureole in New York City. In 2007, Tim with his wife Julie opened The Schoolhouse at Cannondale. He has masterfully turned The Schoolhouse at Cannondale, as one of the town's most treasured historic buildings, into an elegant restaurant. He is taking his experience, technique, and artistry to a whole new level.
What inspired you to become a chef?
I had taken a corporate sales job with IBM right out of college and knew almost immediately that this was not the right path or a long-term career. I always loved to cook and experiment with ingredients as a kid, so when it was clear my corporate career was not going to work out I took the leap to go to culinary school.
What’s your proudest accomplishment in your career to date?
I would say my proudest accomplishment has been turning this tiny space of a restaurant into an award winning dining experience and crossing the 5-year mark. Most restaurants won’t make it a year and trust me I heard that more times than I care to remember when I embarked on opening The Schoolhouse at Cannondale.
Have any mentors? What have you learned from them?
From a business stand point my father and father in law have been amazing mentors. They have helped to coach me through many decisions that I believe, have been instrumental and pivotal in the growth and success of the restaurant. My wife Julia is my spiritual mentor and keeps me grounded when things might be completely chaotic around me.
What are a few of your favorite ingredients to cook with and do you have a favorite dish you like to serve?
I really like to use pork because you have a lot of cuts of meat that can deliver with the right handling and preparation vastly different tastes and textures. I also like to work with any kind of greens, again there is so much that you can do to transform them into something completely unexpected and delicious.
Are you using sustainable sources for your dishes?
Yes we try to only cook with what is in season and from the local farms. Obviously I do have to source from small purveyors for some of the more unusual ingredients from time to time but I do try to stay true to my cooking philosophy and work with what is around and abundant at the time.
How did you choose Wilton, especially the Schoolhouse for your restaurant location?
After culinary school and a variety of internships around the country Julia and I decided to settle down close to our families in Fairfield County. When we returned to Wilton, CT the Schoolhouse Grill was closed down and run down and that is when I knew I wanted to open a restaurant and I wanted it to be there.
Being the owner and chef of your own restaurant can be a challenging task. Did you handle every aspect of your business?
My wife Julia is my business partner and our families have been instrumental in helping us to navigate the areas of business that are at times tricky. We as a team have handled every aspect of the business.
The Schoolhouse, besides being known for its wonderful cuisine, also prides itself for its excellent wait staff, which is so crucial for the dining experience. How did you choose the right people?
The only way to know whether or not you have the right people in place is to have them work a couple of shifts to see how they interact with the core team. It’s easy to say all the right things in an interview but seeing the person in action is the real test. I have been fortunate in that I have excellent staff and the turnover has been very low.
What advice would you give to young chefs just getting started?
Get as much experience as you can through internships and find a good mentor. Don’t show up in a kitchen thinking that you will be running the show, just keep your eyes and ears open and learn everything you can.
Do you change your menu seasonally? What’s the process in developing new menu entrées?
We do change the menu seasonally and sometimes daily. It depends on the season and when there is an abundance of great local produce I like to experiment and try new things when fruits and vegetables are at their peak.
On the equipment side, do you have a piece of equipment that you like to use that makes your job easier when preparing dishes?
The sous vide is an amazing piece of equipment that will produce perfectly cooked food every time.
The restaurant industry has a very broad range of foods…what’s your buying approach? Do you go out to bid on a regular basis or do you look for loyalty from vendors?
I try to source local for almost everything but then I have my vendors that understand the size of my restaurant and if I need one lobster they will make sure I get the best one they have.
Looking into your crystal ball… Where will we find you in five years?
That is a tough question. I am the dad of 3 beautiful children with a fourth due in April, so I will definitely be working and maybe a second and completely different restaurant is in the future. Each day is a gift and I am so thankful for all the success I have this far.

I haven't had lentils before so I thought I would give them a try. I blame Top Chef and other cooking shows that like to use them for putting the idea in my head :) I'll be the first to say that I'm not a fan of beans, so I wasn't sure if I'd like these or not (I think they are in the same family). They are easy enough to make and seem like they would make a good side dish. I was not a fan of the lentils as they were to close to beans. The flavors were okay, but it is a texture thing with me. The original recipe didn't call for bacon, but I believe it gave it a nice flavor. Bacon makes everything better! :o) So if you like beans, then I would suggest making this recipe because it is so versatile and can go with many dishes!
2 strips of bacon
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 yellow onion, finely chopped
4-inch piece celery stalk, finely chopped
4-inch piece carrot, peeled and finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon mustard seed- used mustard powder
1 teaspoon fennel seed- didn't use, not a fan
2 cups vegetable stock, chicken stock or broth
1/2 cup water
1 cup French green lentils, picked over, rinsed, then drained- not sure if I had French green lentils, but they were green :)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar or red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh flat-leaf (Italian) parsley, cut into strips
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Cook bacon and remove from pan. Reserve 2T of the bacon fat and add the onion, celery and carrot and saute until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, mustard seed and fennel seed and saute until the spices are fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the stock, water, lentils, thyme and bay leaf. Raise the heat to medium high and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover partially and simmer until the lentils are tender but still firm, 25 to 30 minutes. Drain the lentils, reserving the cooking liquid. Transfer the lentils to a large bowl and discard the bay leaf.
In a small bowl, combine the vinegar, mustard and 1/4 cup of the reserved cooking liquid.
(Discard any remaining liquid or reserve for another use.) Whisk in the extra-virgin olive oil.
Add crumbled bacon to the lentils and add the vinaigrette, parsley, salt and pepper to the lentils and toss gently to mix and coat evenly. Serve warm.

So we have been working on the kitchen for a long time now and we can see the light at the end of the tunnel. However there are somethings that we have long term got the idea to buy some spray paint and make some changes. I did this project without Jim's knowledge, I wanted to surprise him. And I was freaking out a little on the inside because I was worried that it would look bad. Cause really, me spray painting the outside of the dishwasher doesn't really mean that it was going to look good. Jim came home from work and walked in and out of the kitchen without even noticing the dishwasher. I was trying so hard no to smile every time I was in there cause I wanted him to be surprised when he saw it. I started cooking dinner and he was in the kitchen with me,,, STILL not noticing the dishwasher,,, so I mentioned something about unloading the dishwasher so he would look at the damn thing. FINALLY he saw it, and loved it!!! Yay!!! It's not our long term resolution for the dishwasher, but it will make me happier for the short term $10 in spray paint was WELL worth it!!!

The roll with the tuna on top is the Texas Monster.... I can't remember exactly what is in the middle, but something like avocado, green onion,tempura shrimp, and on the outside, there is tuna and a dollop of a tequila lime sauce. It was a pretty tame roll, but it was very good. The other roll was the Heat of the Moment and it was fucking hot. It was a spicy tuna topped with jalapenos but it was a good heat.
This was a great drink... blackberry moijto. A bit sweet, but a nice way to start the night

Charlie had a couple of extra pieces of sushi and Jim said that he would help him finish it. Charlie was nice enough to feed Jim... not sure how I feel about this but it did make for a funny picture and had the entire table laughing.
(Fred, I know you'll like this picture)

We went to a roof top bar after dinner, and it was slightly miserable. It was so humid and hot, even though we had a few fans blowing on us. I was sticky all night.
Tammy, me, Vanessa and Lindsay
Charlie, Jim and Matt
Nick and Megan... not sure why they look like they have a tint of green to them
The two tall boys of the group, Nick and John, were fighting over the fan and which way it would blow. It was at this point, that I moved away for fear that the fan would fall down.
The most experience I have with Figs, is with Fig Newtons. Before last weekend, I had never had a fresh fig (thank you Central Market) and now I'm hooked. I have heard other people (Dawn, I'm looking at you) rave about figs, but it just took me awhile longer to try them out. I have two recipes in mind,,, one sweet and one savory. This recipe was pretty darn simple, which I liked. The figs were good, but they weren't as sweet at the Figs at Central Market. There were 4 or 5 types of figs, so I guess I chose the not as sweet variety. Overall it is a very simple way to serve a dessert that looks all fancy smancy.
· 8-10 fresh figs
· 2 1/2 Tbsp of brown sugar
· 1 cup of fresh ricotta cheese
· 1 Tbsp of honey
· 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
· 8-10 mint leaves for garnish (optional)
1. Pre-heat the grill.
2. Trim fig the stems, if any, and cut figs in half length-ways.
3. Lightly butter a shallow baking dish. Place the figs curved side down in the dish. Sprinkle each fig with a little brown sugar. -- I didn't do this, I just put them directly on the grill
4. Grill figs for about 3-4 minutes or until the sugar starts to bubble.
5. Meanwhile, combine ricotta, honey and vanilla in a mixing bowl and stir with a wooden spoon until smooth and creamy. Forgot the vanilla, and I'm pretty sure that it would have been way better with the vanilla
6. Remove figs from oven and gently place on serving plates with a dollop of honey ricotta. Garnish with mint leaves and serve.

We had another fantastic Yelp event to attend last Tuesday night. This one was held at Stubbs in downtown Austin. Stubbs was showing off their new organic menu for us. We tried....

We are the gangsta Yelp Elite crew
Jim, Orly and Matt

The party also had an Elvis Costello cover band. They only played for an hour or so, and we stayed outside most of that time so I missed them. A lot of people said they were pretty good.
The party had another "photobooth" there. Cory Ryan was taking pictures and she did an awesome job! This pose was figured out by Jim and Matt. Jim kept telling me to do the "Superman". I had no freakin idea what he was talking about until I realized he wanted me up on their backs.
Love this one of us!
While we were stuffing our faces with food, a guy came up asked if he could take our picture for the local paper. Being the hams that we are we said sure! I just had Jim check my teeth for any lingering brisket tacos, and we smiled away! LOL, my 1.5 seconds of fame....
Pabst Blue Ribbon was also a vendor that night, and when the vodka ran out we switched over to the beer. I am a beer snob and didn't really want anything to do with PBR, but it was free so why not. It wasn't terrible beer, but I won't be running out to purchase a 12 pack for the weekend.

From around 1956 until the mid 1980s, Dodge, Plymouth and even Chrysler squads were the most ubiquitous police cars in North America. In fact, the biggest department, the NYPD, used Plymouth and Dodge squads almost exclusively until the rear-drive M body car was finally axed in 1989.
The no-frills Savoy two-door sedan was home to another engine of considerable repute, the infamous 413 Max Wedge, a Super Stock monster block Chrysler introduced in the spring of 1962.

Recording Your Single pdf
RECORDING YOUR SINGLE
1. Finish your song completely:
• Verse/Chorus Form (most worship songs on radio) Examples: I’ll Fly Away, How Great is Our God. Does your song have a verse and chorus? Do you need a bridge or pre-chorus? Do you have an interesting intro and solid outro? Do your phrases have enough room for the singer to breathe? https://www.nashvillesongwriters.com/structure-number-ones-0.
• AABA Form. Examples: Joy To The World, Mary Did You Know. This form has longer all-in-one verses, (A), with a bridge (B), no chorus. https:// bandzoogle.com/blog/3-types-of-song-forms-and-their-main-uses
• Lyric sheet (lyrics only): Check your spelling, check your word count, indent chorus, or label sections, i.e. “Verse One”, “Chorus”, etc. See Examples: https://genius.com/Matt-redman-10000-reasons-bless-the-lord- lyrics https://www.lyrics.com/lyric/15930764/Kari+Jobe/Revelation+Song
• Lyric Sheet with Chords: (lyrics double spaced with chords above each line) See example: https://www.worshiptogether.com/songs/all-the-people- said-amen/
• Lead Sheet: Music staff with melody only, chords and tablature indicated above staff, lyrics below staff. (See example at end of handout).
2. Recording your song
• Ways to record: How to start recording your song.
• Record into your phone, have a friend record your song (or college music student). https://homestudioexpert.com/can-you-record-music-on-your- phone/
– Audacity https://www.audacityteam.org/, Sound Cloud
– Home Studio: Garage Band, Logic Pro, Pro Tools. Ableton.
– Recording studio or someone’s home studio –
• Rehearse your song until you are comfortable playing it all the way
through without any breaks (guitar only)
– Sing light and easy vocal exercises every day for a week before recording
(at least 10 minutes). https://apps.apple.com/us/app/vocalizer-for-ios/ id1453784872
– Build your tracks from the bottom up:
– Record your drum sections first
– If you are not using drums, begin with bassline, record until you are
happy with it. This is basic, as your baseline will drive the other voices.
– You must use click track! (In your headphones
– Guitar is next: record at least 3 tracks (preferably 6) of your guitar alone,
including intro and outro.
– Fine tune your guitar after each track recording.
– Record each guitar take on separate tracks, using the bassline in your
headphones as a guide. Mute the existing guitar track as you record the
next one, using your bassline only.
– Do not use lead guitar passing tones where vocal will be recorded!! This will fight the vocals.
– Record vocal on separate track, using guitar and bassline in your headphones, (but leave out percussion and instrumental fills by muting their tracks)
– Record at least 3 vocal tracks (preferably 6) without guitar
– Record percussion, flute, or any fill instruments separately.
– Record background vocals (you can sing these yourself by recording one
vocal part at a time.
– Record some kind of pad (electronic sustained tones, strings, choir vocal,
etc) this will add continuity and depth to your recording. If you can’t use an electronic pad, simulate a pad with pedal point on your guitar, using mid- low tones.
– Check top end levels to make sure your instruments and vocals are not topping out.
If you mix your own song: Trust your ears!
– Starting with vocal tracks, begin mixing by cut-and-pasting the best phrases of each track onto one track. Mute the rest and save for later, if you need it.
– Add reverb sparingly
– Double your vocal track to see how it changes the sound. Make one of
the track different than the other (i.e., more reverb, more echo, etc.)
– Cut out or mute breath sounds before phrases
– Make vocal with lyrics the most prominent. Listen to a worship song on
the radio, and notice how their vocals stand out. If you have great guitar
skills, amplify them during the intro, fills and chorus only
– Nothing supersedes the vocal track…it is King!
– Try duplicating guitar track, using same method as vocal.
– Double check bassline and pad to make sure the tones are in sync with
guitar chord patterns.
– Fine tune percussion to take out any hissing sounds or top end distractions
– Step away from your mixing session for a few hours/day to get “fresh ears”,
then go back and listen.
– play your finished song at home, in your car, and on other devices to see how it sounds different. Adjust mix to correct any obvious flaws.
– Polish off any rough sounds on the top end (tambourine, percussion)
– Send the mix to trusted musician friends or mentor who can give you their
take on your mix only.
– Mastering – Have your treasured song professionally mastered. https:// theproaudiofiles.com/11-tips-for-better-mastering-results/
– Choose your artwork:
– Stock photos. https://www.lightstock.com/
– A photo from your photo library
– Commissioned artwork

Xiaomi Boasts Faster Snapdragon 810 Chip Inside The MiNote ProBy cheatmaster 02:28 Sun, 25 Jul 2021 Comments
As most of you have surely heard, the Xiaomi MiNote Pro is official. It was launched just a few hours ago. The handset boasts a pretty impressive specs sheet, including a elegant Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 SoC, 4GB of LPDDR4 Random-Access Memory (RAM) and a 5.7-inch QHD 2.5D display.
But the phone might just have another trick up its sleeve. According to Xiaomi, the MiNote Pro uses a newer version of Qualcomm's top-of-the-line chip. The SoC it has is a v2.1 model, which the manufacturer claims gives it a slight edge in performance over other phones with the same Snapdragon chip.
To back this up, Xiaomi published some benchimprint results, from CFBench and Antutu, to be exact, which seem to show that the MiNote Pro outperforms both the HTC One M9 and the LG G Flex 2. This all sounds quite intriguing and we definitely can't wait to acquire our hands on the handset to verify the results for ourselves. As for the heat-management problems that the Snapdragon 810 has been battling with, Xiaomi claims to have found a remedy for that as well, by using what it describes as clever heat management. We'll just have to see about that as well.

I work from my home in Brooklyn. But years ago I worked in the suburbs of Kansas City for Vance Publishing. And there was much I loved about that life. The commute was easy. The folks I met were friendlier. And, although it bothers many of my fellow B2B journalists in New York when I say it -- my coworkers were generally of a higher caliber than can be found elsewhere.
I've written before about why I think Kansas City is one of the best possible places in the U.S. to practice trade journalism.
Now the Kansas City Star has published an interesting piece on the history of trade publishing in that city. It's worth a read, and I'd urge folks to take the time to see how our game became so big in the Midwest.
Also take a look at fellow B2B blogger David Shaw's take on the cities of B2B.

To tell the story of Hot Karl would probably take up too much of this blog post, but in short, over a decade ago I took a random stint as a battle rap champion on Los Angeles radio, and turned it into a million dollar deal at Interscope Records and EMI publishing. I did release music under the dumb moniker Hot Karl (still available at iTunes) with Kanye West, Will.I.Am., Mya, Redman, Fabolous and others (I say others instead of Sugar Ray). I quickly realized that business wasn’t for me, and moved on to a bunch of other stuff that has thankfully developed a career away from the mic. A guy named George Meeker made a short documentary about it in 2004 when I was fat and you can watch that here-
To tell the story of how much I love the Los Angeles Clippers would probably take up too much of this blog post, but in short, since childhood, due to the fact that we couldn’t afford Lakers tickets, I’ve been a fanatical supporter dedicating myself to the team, even when they were considered “the worst franchise in sports” by Sports Illustrated. It’s one of the only constants in my life, which has been filled with unexpected traumas and career turns. It’s all wrapped up in my deceased father, being an underdog and a hope to stay loyal. It’s about way more than sports and being a season ticker holder has become one of the true joys in my life (I’m very jaded). I wrote about this passion a few years ago and you can read about it here -
When DJ Dense, the in-arena Clippers DJ and a friend from my past as a rapper, asked me to create a song for the team this season, I obviously jumped at the chance, even though it had been over 10 years since I created a new song for myself. I had recently appeared on Burning Love as Hot Karl, and did an interview with Howard Stern about it, both big steps in acceptance and healing, but never actually produced a song. That would be a way bolder move.
So, I immediately started writing to a beat I had from years ago by Greg Mayo (friend to the Hypemen Podcast). I took an emotional approach, which I think best reflects my feelings (it has a lot of hidden meaning in the words to represent my upbringing). Then I took what I penned, and the original beat, to Justin Warfield, another name from my ancient rap career, and he created something inspired by Mayo’s original production. And thus marks the return of Hot Karl, “Where You At? (Clipper Song)”
You can listen to, and download the song for free, on Soundclound here -
Also, and most importantly, you can hear the song at Clippers home games during Halftime when they play the Halftime Highlights. Thank you to DJ Dense, the Los Angeles Clippers, Greg Mayo & Justin Warfield.
It’s all pretty surreal for me. I wish I could just walk up to 7 year old Jensen, wearing the Benoit Benjamin jersey, sad his team could never win but still optimistic for every game his father spent hard earned money to attend, and tell him one day they’d play his music during these games. It’s a small victory for Hot Karl I know, but much like the Clippers, ten years later, every victory counts.

Dr. Gordon Smith studies the activity-dependent development of neural circuits in the visual cortex. Sensory systems in the brain must rapidly form coherent percepts that can be used to guide behavior. In the visual cortex, the circuits that perform these computations are not hardwired, but rather form over the course of development through activity-dependent plasticity. Understanding this plasticity is critical not only for understanding how functional circuits are constructed, but is also essential for understanding the computations they perform in mature systems in both health and disease.
To address these questions, Dr. Smith uses cutting-edge optical imaging techniques together with novel longitudinal imaging approaches developed in the Fitzpatrick Lab. Working with collaborators at the Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies, Dr. Smith was able to provide the first demonstration that the decorrelation of activity in vivo in neural populations during development promotes stimulus discriminability (Smith et al., Nature Neuroscience, 2015). By combining wide-field and 2-photon calcium imaging, Dr. Smith along with Dr. David Whitney was able to demonstrate a robust encoding of stimulus polarity (light vs. dark) in the superficial layers of visual cortex (Smith et al., Neuron, 2015). Dr. Smith’s ongoing work uses longitudinal imaging to capture images of early cortical activity over the weeks before eye opening, and applies computational approaches to identify activity patterns that can predict the future functional organization of the cortex.
Prior to joining the Fitzpatrick Lab in 2010, Dr. Smith earned his Ph.D. in Neurobiology with Dr. Mark Bear at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he studied the mechanisms of synaptic plasticity in the hippocampus and visual cortex. Using a virally-expressed peptide inhibitor of AMPA receptor endocytosis, he demonstrated a requirement for homosynaptic LTD in the loss of deprived-eye responses following monocular deprivation.

Electroforming to make printing plates for the printing of money. Copper was deposited onto an etched material, which was removed after to create the printing plate. Electroforming uses the same principles and chemicals as electroplating, however, it is usually done involving non-metal substrates; plastics, clays, silicones, organic materials.
Copper is one of the most commonly electroplated metals, after nickel. This is due to the numerous applications in which copper plays a vital role as well as the properties of copper and the ease of electrodeposition. A few of the benefits are listed below:
1. High plating efficiency: Copper has a high plating efficiency resulting in excellent coverage on difficult to plate parts, such as intricate zinc die castings. This means that minor imperfections in the base metal, such as pits and scratches, will also be covered.
2. Inert in other plating solutions: Copper is relatively inert in most plating solutions.
3. Conductivity: Copper has a very high electrical and thermal conductivity, one of the reasons for its high plating efficiency. The thermal conductivity leads copper to act as an effective thermal expansion barrier. It does this by absorbing and distributing stress when metals with two different thermal expansion rates undergo a change in temperature, resulting in fewer breakages. This is especially useful on plastics.
4. Range of mechanical hardness: Copper has can range in hardness from properties superior to wrought copper to annealed pure copper. It can be relatively soft which means that the levelling and brightness of copper can be enhanced after plating due to the ease of polishing and buffing.
The qualities above lead copper to be an excellent metal for electroforming.

Will iPhone XR get 3D Touch?
While both the new iPhone XS and XS Max include 3D Touch, Apple has chosen not to include the feature on the iPhone XR.
Does iPhone XR have Touch ID?
Apple replaced Touch ID with Face ID on the iPhone X in 2017, and the latest iPhones — the iPhone XS and iPhone XR — don't have a fingerprint sensor, either. Unlocking your iPhone with Face ID is also slower than Touch ID and doesn't work unless you hold your device in the correct orientation.
How do I turn on 3D Touch on my iPhone XR?
Instead of detecting pressure, Haptic Touch simply registers how long you leave your finger on a UI element, similar to how long-pressing worked on iPad, except that the iPhone XR. Once pressed for long enough, the iPhone gives you haptic feedback, hence the name.
Yes, you got that right! You can now get night mode on your iPhone Xs Max, XR, XS, X and even the older iPhone 8 too. The night mode in those camera lenses even surpasses many other flagship devices, sometimes even Google Pixel which is known as a pioneer in night sight mode.
Add a fingerprint
Go to Settings > Touch ID & Passcode. Tap Add a Fingerprint. Follow the onscreen instructions.
That includes the iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, iPhone 11 Pro Max and the iPhone SE 2020.
Which iPhone models support 5G?
|iPhone Model||5G Ready|
|iPhone XS / XS Max||No|
|iPhone X / XR||No|
|iPhone 8 / 8 Plus||No|
|iPhone 7 / 7 Plus||No|
Its main problem is how hard is too determine the right amount of pressure to trigger the interaction. After a failed attempt to trigger the 3D touch, most users would then apply extreme pressure as a way to counterbalance the apparent need of force required to enable the interaction.
Though some 3D Touch functions still work on devices built with 3D Touch (like triggering the cursor on the keyboard), they were redesigned in iOS 13 as Haptic Touch instead, which has carried on to iOS 14, too. Whether you're on an iPad Pro, iPhone SE, or a new iPhone 12, Haptic Touch works the same.
3D Touch was discontinued with the iPhone 11 and onwards in favor of Haptic Touch. Haptic Touch is a feature on the iPhone XR, 11, 11 Pro/11 Pro Max, SE (2nd generation), 12/12 Mini, 12 Pro/12 Pro Max, 13/13 Mini and 13 Pro/13 Pro Max replacing 3D Touch.
Apple has officially dropped the 3D Touch feature in its latest 2019 iPhones. The difference between Haptic Touch and 3D Touch is essentially based on the force of the touch. While the latter is more of a pressure-sensitive pop, Haptic Touch is a long press paired with an electric feedback when you press.
3D Touch makes your iPhone pressure-sensitive, so it knows how hard you are pressing on the screen. In fact, 3D Touch has three distinct levels of sensitivity, and can perform three different actions depending upon how hard you press.
The iPhone's capacitive touch screen doesn't have the concept of calibration. To fix the problem you're experiencing, I suggest trying each of the following options: Hard reset of the phone by holding the Home and Sleep buttons for 10 seconds. "Reset All Settings" from Settings → General → Reset.
Go to Settings > Accessibility > Touch > 3D & Haptic Touch, then adjust any of the following: 3D Touch: Turn on or off.
Launch the Settings app on your iPhone and tap on Accessibility. Step 2. Tap on the 3D Touch option and then enable the 3D Touch toggle on the following screen. This turns the feature on your iPhone.
The iPhone XR does not support live wallpaper since it lacks 3D Touch.
The Good. The less expensive iPhone XR delivers most iPhone X and XS features, including an excellent big screen in a comfortable body, fast performance, Face ID and wireless charging, and a camera that's mostly as good as the iPhone XS.
Video recording is great on the iPhone XR. The camera can shoot 4K in 24fps, 30fps or 60fps along with 1080p in either 30fps or 60fps for slow-motion action. Whichever format you shoot in, the resulting video looks excellent. Stabilisation is great, detail is sharp, and the colours are vibrant.
The XR has an LCD display known as "Liquid Retina" instead of the OLED screen used on the X, XS, and XS Max. The display on the XR has a resolution of 1792 × 828 pixels and a pixel density of 326 ppi, compared with 458 ppi on other X-branded iPhones.
The scans enable Face ID to learn your face, so if you change your hair style, put on sunglasses, or grow a beard, Face ID should be able to adapt and still work. It will work both during the day and night, too.
Face ID uses the TrueDepth camera and machine learning for a secure authentication solution. Face ID data - including mathematical representations of your face - is encrypted and protected with a key available only to the Secure Enclave.
Why There's No Fingerprint Sensor on the iPhone XS. With the iPhone X last year, Apple removed the home button—and Touch ID—altogether in favor of swiping-based gestures and facial recognition (Face ID).
In laymans terms, the difference between 4G and LTE is that 4G is faster than LTE. Older LTE mobile devices launched right prior to 4G deployment cannot provide 4G speeds because they aren't built to handle it. In 2020, all cellular carriers should now offer 4G service, if not offering 5G already.
The Apple iPhone XR has now been configured for use of 4G networks.
An eSIM is a digital SIM that allows you to activate a cellular plan from your carrier without having to use a physical nano-SIM. iPhone 12 models, iPhone 11 models, iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, and iPhone XR, feature Dual SIM with a nano-SIM and an eSIM.
Regardless, Apple's iPhone 11, iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max have all opted to exclude the feature in favour of Face ID. After all, there are plenty of older and cheaper iPads and iPhones like the iPhone SE that still rely on Touch ID.
The last Apple Watch to have Force Touch was the Series 5. The implication is that Apple did not want to pay a licensing fee for this technology and simply removed it. However, the features those technologies allowed can still be accessed. With watchOS 7, the hidden features were made part of the user interface.

Australian Actress Carol Burns Passes Away at 68
One of Australia's most versatile and acclaimed actors, Carol Burns has passed away, aged 68, after a short battle with cancer. Her partner of 36 years, composer and musician, Alan Lawrence was at her bedside as she passed at Brisbane's Princess Alexandra Hospital.
QPAC Chief Executive John Kotzas said this was a tremendous loss to the arts community. "Carol was a dear friend to QPAC, an inspiration to generations of Queensland actors and directors. She will be dearly missed by the performing arts sector and by audiences around the world. Her passion for live performance was lifelong. She leaves behind an enormous legacy for the art form and for Queensland. She will be missed," said Mr Kotzas.
Born in Brisbane in 1947, Carol attended Milton State Primary School where her initiation into the world of theatre began with elocution classes in 1958. She then acted with Brisbane Arts Theatre and also Twelfth Night Theatre in Brisbane.
However, she began her professional career as a founding member of the Queensland Theatre Company (QTC) in 1969 and went on to star in numerous productions with the likes of Geoffrey Rush and Bille Brown. Since then she has been a major contributor to its success, appearing in productions including The Female of the Species, Rabbit Hole, Black Comedy, Private Lives, The Real Inspector Hound, A Conversation, Bill & Mary, The Clean House, Design for Living, and too many more to mention.
In 2005, Burns performed in the sell-out season of Edward Albee's production of The Goat or Who is Sylvia?. As part of their 2007 season, she appeared in The Glass Menagerie by Tennessee Williams, and in 2012 Elizabeth: Almost by Chance a Woman by Italian playwright Dario Fo.
Her other theatre credits included productions with Sydney Theatre Company, Melbourne Theatre Company, La Boite Theatre Company, Nimrod Theatre Company and the State Theatre Company of South Australia.
Burns had acted exclusively in the theatre for ten years before acting in film or on television. She then appeared in such iconic Australian television series as The Day of the Roses, The Love of Lionel's Life, Blue Heelers, Reef Doctors, Small Claims, Carson's Law,Flipper, All the Rivers Run, Fire, Medivac and Pig in a Poke.
Her most famous television role was her award winning performance in the now cult television program, Prisoner, in which she played tough lesbian bikie, Franky Doyle. Although she only appeared in the first 20 episodes, her character attained cult status resulting in her winning a TV Week Logie Award for Best Lead Actress. In a 2011 interview she stated she left the show because the pay was very low and the work load was increasing due to the more rapid production of episodes. She also stated that it was her decision to be killed off as she did not want to be lured back to the series.
After Prisoner Carol went to work in the UK appearing in West End and regional productions, and had guest roles including The Bill,Taggart, Casualty, Heartbeat and Hannay.
Burns appeared in many films including The Mango Tree, Bad Blood, Starstruck, Strikebound, Hard Drive, Dusty, The Turning,Small Mercies and more recently Gettin' Square and Tracks.
Burns was also a talented director, directing several productions including The Road to Mecca and A Day in the Death of Joe Egg and her own stage adaptation of Picnic At Hanging Rock for Brisbane Arts Theatre.
Carol Burns was an Associate Artist of Queensland Theatre Company and Queensland Arts Council/Artslink; Patron of The Independent Theatre (Eumundi) and Fame Theatre School (Brisbane); a member of Actors Equity since 1973; President of Actors Equity Queensland; and a member of the National Performance Committee.
Carol Burns also served as Vice-President of the Actors' & Entertainers' Benevolent Fund (Qld) Inc., the registered charity which assists performers in need.
Details of a special arts industry memorial will be announced shortly.

When UM grads Michael and Sarah Tayter were looking for a way to return to Ann Arbor from Austin, Tex., their favorite burger restaurant ended up being the key to their return.
"There were a couple of Elevation Burgers in the area, and that became our family's favorite restaurant," Michael Tayter says. "I always had an entrepreneurial itch, and it kind of felt like a perfect fit."
That led to the opening of their first Elevation Burger
restaurant on Washtenaw Ave. in July of 2013. Now, the husband and wife team will be expanding by adding another branch of the environmentally friendly burger franchise downtown on Liberty.
"We definitely have always wanted to open one up on campus somewhere," Tayter says. "Having no restaurant experience for the first one, it was very difficult to convince anyone to lease us space on campus. But now the concept has proven itself."
The 1,800-square-foot space will be under renovation for several months, with January 2015 as Tayter's projected opening date. The downtown location will receive an updated design treatment for the Elevation Burger franchise with a more modern look than previous stores. Updates on the construction will be posted on the Elevation Burger Ann Arbor Facebook page
Elevation Burger specializes in organic, grass-fed beef that is ground in the restaurant, as well as other healthy and sustainable foods and ingredients. Tayter expects to employ a staff of between 10 and 12 workers at the new restaurant. With a three-store franchise agreement, the couple plans to open a third location in the future, and hopes to keep all three in Ann Arbor.

"I think it went into the parking lot behind the stadium," Nats second baseman Jose Vidro observed. "I know it was far."
Ward's homer, hit off newly reinstated Russ Springer, increased the Nationals' lead to 3-1. Alfonso Soriano's equally impressive shot to center off Springer put the game out of reach for the Astros, who are 2-7 in their last nine road games.
Springer, coming off a four-game suspension and six-day layoff, retired the first two batters on fly balls to deep center. He wasn't so lucky with Ward and Soriano, and the reliever admitted that after nearly a week off, his mechanics were slightly skewed.
"I know what I'm doing wrong," Springer said. "I felt it as soon as I came in the dugout. [Catcher] Brad [Ausmus] told me the same thing that I was thinking. I was going too much side-to-side and it makes you jerk the fastball a little bit, leave it over the middle. My slider's a little too big and I left it over the middle."
The appearance was Springer's first since he was tossed from the game last Tuesday for hitting Barry Bonds with a pitch.
"I wanted to get back out there," Springer said. "Shake the rust off."
Until that inning, the Astros had a chance. Terrific performances by both starting pitchers -- Houston's Fernando Nieve and Washington's Ramon Ortiz -- resulted in a 1-1 tie after six. Two solo homers accounted for both runs -- Damian Jackson went deep in the fifth, Morgan Ensberg in the sixth.
But Vidro led off the seventh with a fly ball that sliced to the right of Willy Taveras, who was unable to make a clean grab. Instead, the ball bounced off Taveras' glove for a double, and following Nick Johnson's sacrifice bunt, Vidro scored on Jose Guillen's sacrifice fly to right.
The Astros had the same luck against relievers Gary Majewski and Chad Cordero as they did against Ortiz, which prevented them from making a late-game push.
The loss took some of the luster from what was Nieve's best outing of the year.
"I had a long time where I didn't throw the ball past the fifth inning," Nieve said. "Today, I felt comfortable with my mechanics. I tried to not lose concentration, just focus."
"He pitched very well," Ausmus said. "That's probably the best he's thrown. He did a good job of keeping the ball out of the middle of the plate."
Ausmus was also complimentary toward Ortiz, who turned in his longest outing since last September. Ortiz has won two straight after beginning the season 0-4 in seven starts.
"He changed his approach," Ausmus said. "Usually, it's a lot of fastballs and changeups. Tonight, he threw more sliders and two-seamers. He did a nice job."
Manager Phil Garner didn't sound as convinced.
"I'm not sure it was him or us tonight," he said. "We just didn't swing the bats very well tonight. He looked like he might have located some fastballs pretty decent, but we just didn't swing the bats very well tonight."
The Astros produced two baserunners through the first three innings. In the fourth, Lance Berkman and Preston Wilson singled and Ausmus loaded the bases with a walk, but Adam Everett popped to second to end the inning.
Nieve knocked a base hit off Ortiz in the fifth, but he was erased on a sacrifice bunt attempt by Willy Taveras. The inning ended when Craig Biggio hit into a double play.
Following Ensberg's sixth-inning homer, the Astros produced only one more baserunner.
"We had an opportunity to win it," Ausmus said. "We didn't. We came up short. They got some big home runs in the eighth inning to solidify it. There's a difference between one and three runs. Even so, their three pitchers did a very nice job. When Ortiz got in trouble, he did a nice job of getting out of it without giving up any runs."

Warning of a "civil war" in southern Iraq
The Prime Minister, Adel Abdul-Mahdi, urged to hold early elections at the end of this year, to take over the reins of the interim government, after Muhammad Allawi failed to form a new government, as a result of a political dispute.
Khashan said, the Twilight News, said that "because of the ignorance of the political parties in dealing with the crisis experienced by the country, can not hold early elections, not even periodically after the elections , the end of the life of current government.
" This move might bring Iraq back to before the Governing Council stage , That is to 2003. "And he
warned against what he described as" serious repercussions "of holding early elections,"
Qais Khazali, Secretary General of the Asaib Ahl al-Haq movement in Iraq, had seen in a previous interview that holding early elections in light of the government’s resignation and the unstable security situation was a great risk that might lead to civil war.

please can y give me some informations how can I get from Cambodia to Thailand by boat?
Thx for help

I meant boat across the gulf of Thailand to some of the isladns in Thailand.

I don't think there are any direct boats to Thai islands from Cambodia. And even if you hired a boat for yourself, you'd have to go through customs somewhere, so I don't think that would work. You can take a boat from Sihanoukville to the border (Ko Kong) though.
There are no scheduled boats from Cambodia crossing to any of the tourist islands in Thailand. You can get a boat from Sihanoukville (and it stops at one place along the Cambo coats, can't remember the name) to Koh Kong then cross the boarder into Thailand. As above, you need a customs point, the only customs point is at Hat Lek in Thailand along the eastern coastline.
Sorry, just saw your post goo_stewart, yes I've stayed on Ko S'dach (it's my notes that added it to Travelfish). It's a good spot -- very very unadulterated, which is surprising considering two boats, packed with foreigners stop there every day!
I was looking into traveling across the Gulf of Thailand by boat too. Are there any options to do this at all? I was wanting to go from Thailand to Cambodia.
If not (due to visas etc) are there any options to travel through the gulf from Southern Thailand, Ko Samui, into the bay,say Ko Samet or further South.
Any ideas anyone?

The only way you can do this is via private yacht -- either on your own yacht, chartering one, or crewing on one. There are no regular passenger ferries plying any of the routes you mention.
I remember hearing about a cruise liner that was running from Pattaya down towards Ko Samui, but by all accounts it was truly awful and I get the feeling that's not the type of transport you're looking for anyways.

Hong Kong Exile premieres "Room 2048" at the Firehall
Running out the clock on "One Country, Two Systems."
For all its choreographic precision, polished performances and classy sponsorship (a two-year residency at the Firehall Theatre), Hong Kong Exile’s latest offering, Room 2048, has something of the playfulness of a backyard kids’ game.
A lot of hyper-kinetic jittering, punctuated by slo-mo interludes and stop-action freeze frames – all inspired, according to the programme notes, by the non-linear aesthetic of avant garde film-maker Wong Kar-wai. But, more than New-New-Wave cinema, Room 2048 called to my mind the herky-jerky fits and starts of such sandlot child’s play as Simon Says or Red Light/Green Light.
As any survivor of a neurotically nerdy childhood might recall, such “fun” is not without its tensions. These games are all about imposed control and how to steal back a little of one’s own agency.
Apt metaphor for Hong Kong’s worsening dilemma. Ever since its 1997 reversion to Chinese rule, the former British Crown Colony has been running down the clock on its 50 years of promised quasi-autonomy.
The “2048” of the title refers to the terminal year of Beijing’s “One Country Two Systems” guarantee to maintain Hong Kong’s capitalist economic order, independent judiciary, press freedom and (rather truncated) representative democracy. In practice, long before 50-year deadline, these prerogatives already look more and more tenuous with each passing news cycle.
So Hong Kong’s residents, along with its diaspora “exiles,” find themselves caught in an ongoing struggle to hold their own against diktats from on high. Room 2048 lays out this plight in a series of vignettes, or “chapters,” that are engagingly playful – but with an edge.
In this game of “Simon Says,” the three onstage performers – Michelle Lui, Milton Lim and Alex Tam – must dance to the tune (literally), bask in the light and move by the say-so of an unseen, offstage Simon. That’d be sound-and-light designer Remy Siu, whose blended score of original electronica compositions and Canto-pop quotations drives the tempo.
“Atmospheric” is a tag often applied to the Wong Kar-wai aesthetic. But Room 2048 goes a step beyond, deploying a smoke machine to fill the Firehall with an atmosphere so thick it gets up your nose. Into this haze, Siu beams palpable cones of light from a pair of gimbal-mounted overhead spot projectors to lay down stroboscopic, moiré patterned “shining paths” on the stage.
With the performers posed, stage centre, at the vortex of these cones, Siu can present an illusion of changing perspective or headlong motion just by swivelling the spotlights or tweaking the strobe. And the hyper-illuminated central figures contrast starkly with the murky, faceless figures in the penumbra.
To underscore this contrast, in many of the “chapters,” choreographer Natalie Tin Yin Gan sets drastically different tempos for her central and peripheral performers. In her cone of light, Lui twitches to a frenetic disco beat as Lim, in the red-tinted shadows, stalks 3600 around her languidly smoking. But then, in the next “chapter,” Tam takes centre stage motionlessly, like a deer transfixed in a headlight, while shadowy figures course past behind him to suggest a crowded street scene.
Whether stock-still or on the run, the performers remain resolutely affectless, even when locking eyes and stripping down (or, more accurately, exfoliating) for what looks like an immanent romantic clinch. And the vignettes, which started out in a tidy, ordinal sequence, gradually mount in a heap of randomly numbered, stroboscopic day-and-night blinks until “chapter” 10,000 (萬).
Which, symbolically, betokens an uncountable myriad in Chinese, but also happens to more or less number the days left until the 2048 deadline. At which point, in their ongoing game of “Simon Says,” Hong Kong and its exiles may need to ask “May I?” before venturing any moves at all.

There's a lot of fear in the world today. Words like terror, distress, anxiety, panic, apprehension, and alarm seem to have become the dominant lyrics of a new song that began to be sung the world over September 11, 2001. As a result, our loving world of tolerance and diversity has begun to classify what used to be innocent pranks, jokes, or just part of growing up, as hate and criminal behavior. This is all very interesting because true love and acceptance replace fear because genuine love is the exact opposite of hate.
Now I'm not implying there aren't hateful people in the world who desire nothing more than to inflict harm on others. And because of this we must protect ourselves, even to the point of being proactive at times. But when those who desire to protect us from ourselves redefine what has always been considered jest, but now must be treated as hatred, society has digressed rather than progressed.
Abraham Maslow once said, and rightfully so, that,
"One can choose to go back toward safety or forward toward growth. Growth must be chosen again and again while fear must be overcome again and again."
Today folks have allowed the media and their servants (politicians, teachers, preachers, regulators, transportation officials, bankers and financial planners) to perpetuate fear...fear of civil rights violations, fear of ignorance, fear of eternity, fear of terrorism, fear of poverty, fear of failure, fear of success, etc.! And these fears, as all fear, naturally breed contempt, hate and aggression rather than respect, love and progression. Therefore, instead of going forward in growth over the past decade we have digressed. As we have clung to safety our growth has been hampered. And because people who remain fearful will never experience the joys of accomplishment it's time to put those fears to rest and participate in some real lovin'.
Thomas Jefferson once wrote that "To learn, you must listen. To improve, you must try." And that is as excitingly truthful today as it was 200 years ago. You don't have to let your growth be hampered by the tyrants who promote fear! Fear is an emotion which anybody can overcome by choosing to practice true love. True love desires the success of others even to the point of deferring your own desires to make other peoples desires happen.
Notice I didn't say deny your own desires? That's right, I specifically said, deferring you own desires. Deferring you own desires is a sign of true love when it comes to helping others attain their own desires.
Zig Ziglar's popular phrase, "You can have anything you want in life as long as you'll just help enough other people get what they want" is absolutely true. Realizing that you need others to attain what you want and need in life is not some form of manipulative power that you use to "trick or steal" from others. Instead it is the profound realization that you need to help others attain what they desire if you're ever going to be able to reach the level of accomplishment in your own life that you desire. How wonderfully different this method is compared to using fear as a tool to manipulate others emotions in order to materially, emotionally, spiritually or physically take advantage of them.
Do you have fear(s) in your life? When do you want to stop being taken advantage of by those who wield that manipulative tool over your life? Do you know that you alone have the power to choose what you feel and what you believe? When do you want to stop denying your true desires, embrace purposeful deferment while helping others, so you can accomplish true fulfillment? When you're ready we're here to help you. Happy Independence Day!!

Friends, we have great news – the Governmental Ecological Expertise (GEE) issued a negative decision on the materials of the total allowable catch (TAC) of marine mammals for 2020! In an official response, Rosprirodnadzor reports that the experts found that the submitted TAC materials did not comply with the current environmental legislation.
Thank you to everyone who wrote letters and appeals to Rosprirodnadzor and the GEE expert commission!
Recall that 282 belugas, 20 Pacific white-sided dolphins, 8 bottlenose dolphins, 8 pilot whales, 1496 walruses and 1905 fur seals in the Far Eastern Seas were listed in the TAC and planned for capture in 2020. Most of the cetaceans and pinnipeds are intended for the indigenous peoples of the North, however, at least 82 belugas and all dolphins were meant to be captured for the entertainment industry. All of us managed to prevent this.
At the same time, we received information that the RPN is forming a new expert commission to conduct a second GEE on TAC of marine mammals for 2020. Therefore, we can’t relax yet and should be ready for the next stage of the battle for whales and dolphins.

There are probably close to 200,000-300,000 people worldwide who own 3D printers. This number is partially a guess, and partially based on data released by various manufacturers over the last several years in relation to annual sales. Either way, it’s close enough. Yeah, that’s a small number when you consider the total number of smartphones on the planet will approach 2 billion by next year. It’s really too bad because the majority of the 3D printers out there right now remain idle probably close to 95% of the time.
With so many incredible applications for 3D printing available, and the overwhelming amount of idle time the printers which are sitting in people’s offices, living rooms and garages see, one company called 3D Hubs has been on a mission to find a solution to this disconnect. 3D Hubs, utilizes the vast amount of idle time attributed to most 3D printers, to make them available to individuals who wish to have access to such a device, without the need of spending the big bucks in acquiring one. The 3D Hubs social platform allows those with 3D printers to earn a little cash, while providing a needed service to a global audience. Founded by two former 3D System’s employees, Bram de Zwart and Brian Garret, 3D Hubs was only launched last April. Despite their relatively short existence, the company has grown tremendously, faster than even the founders could have ever imagined.
In order to sustain their amazing growth, today the company announced a major capital injection via a Series-A financing round of $4.5 million.
“Just one year after launching 3D Hubs, we are excited to announce our $4.5M Series-A financing round, led by Balderton Capital,” stated the company. “We are proud to have top venture capital partners backing our mission to bring 3D printing to the masses. Mark Evans, General Partner at Balderton Capital, will join our two founders on the company board.”
Just how fast has 3D Hubs been growing? In under a year there have been over 30,000 completed prints via their network of worldwide 3D printers, now consisting of over 7,000 different machines, spanning 140 countries. Instead of 3D printing being accessible to the 200,000-300,000 people who are lucky enough to own a printer, the ability to fabricate custom objects is now within a 10 mile distance of over 1 billion people around the globe. When you think about it that way, the possible impact that 3D Hubs could have in a variety of industries is simply staggering.
As the technology behind 3D printers improve, and the number of applications that a 3D printer can be used for expands, the need for such services will continue to grow in an exponential fashion.
“We are developing new features that will make the experience of ordering a personalized 3D print similar to traditional e-commerce platforms,” said Brian Garret, Co-founder of 3D Hubs.
It will certainly be interesting to see how far 3D Hubs will take this concept, and if the growth trajectory will continue like it has. Clearly Balderton Capital and the other investors who got in on this round of financing believe it will. Let’s hear your thoughts on 3D Hubs’ recent finance deal in the 3DHubs forum thread on 3DPB.com.

text: Few experimental test data are available for evaporation of ammonia inside tubes and numerous new data have been measured and presented here. An improved approach to the prediction of flow boiling heat transfer in horizontal tubes has been proposed through the study of each flow pattern separately, incorporating a new criterion defining the onset of nucleate boiling as a function of the critical convective heat transfer coefficient representative of the location where nucleate boiling might occur. A new function, based on a pseudo-Biot number delineates two different mean heat fluxes on the perimeter of the tube in stratified types of flow, one in contact with the liquid and one in contact with the vapor. Considering pure convective heat transfer, or mixed convective and nucleate heat transfer, this division allows the use of a common criterion to be applied to each flow pattern. Even if the database showed that the flow conditions in the annular liquid film were close to, or in the turbulent to laminar flow transition, and even if the major part of the experimental points where purposely obtained close to the various flow pattern transitions, the new model showed very good agreement with the experimental database of refrigerants HFC-134a and ammonia. Due to the precision of the new flow pattern map and the effectiveness of the onset on nucleate boiling criterion, this new heat transfer model accurately predicts the heat transfer conditions during evaporation.

Because of conflicts with the Anaheim Ducks and Los Angeles Clippers, the Dodgers' games on Wednesday in San Diego and Friday in Arizona are going to be shown on tape delay on Prime Ticket, something that simply hasn't happened in recent years outside of a conflict with the exclusive window by big Fox.
But the games on Wednesday and Friday have been made available to providers to show live on alternate channels. Here are the channels to watch Wednesday and Friday's games live:
- AT&T: channel 696 (HD 1696)
- Cox Santa Barbara: 8
- Cox Orange County: 3
- Cox Las Vegas: 96
- Cox Palos Verdes: 3
- DirecTV: 689 (HD: 689-1)
- Dish: Apr. 10 449 (HD 9519) / Apr. 12 441 (HD to be determined)
- Time Warner Los Angeles: HD 700
- Time Warner Desert Cities, Yucca, Banning: HD 590
- Time Warner Barstow: HD 671
- Time Warner Oceanic: 260 (HD 1260)
- Verizon: 1
Outside of Oceanic, Time Warner customers without high definition boxes won't be able to see the game live.
It's the Dodgers' last season with games on Prime Ticket, and it seems the outgoing team has been given a lower status on the channel. After two consecutive springs with all home games televised, mostly by Prime Ticket and some by KCAL, the Dodgers went into spring training with zero games on Prime Ticket, though four games were eventually added on the channel. It will be interesting to see if any future conflicts happen with Prime Ticket, and how they are handled.

Explore the Wyoming wilderness using a raft, a river and your own raw power on these intrepid rafting tours.
Snake River flows through six states before joining the larger Columbia River. The river rises in Wyoming and around Jackson Hole, where it alternates between thrilling sections of rapids and calmer stretches of water, it is well suited for a variety of rafting tours. With the lofty peaks of the Grand Teton mountains forming an impressive backdrop, plus plenty of wildlife roaming the banks, you won’t have to worry about white knuckles the entire time, as you can combine sightseeing with paddling for an ultimate rafting trip.
7-Mile Snake River Float with Teton Views
One of the rafting options accessible to seasoned rapids-rollers and first-time floaters alike is this fairly gentle seven-mile stretch of Snake River. It’s a fantastic, family-friendly way to explore the great outdoors in an unusual way, with the impressive peaks of the Teton Range not too far away, and chances of seeing wildlife at the water’s edge. Eagles, moose and deer are all potential sightings. As with all tours on this list, Snake River rafting tours are seasonal, thus run only in warmer months, usually June through September. From $85 per person.
Classic Whitewater Rafting Trip
If you’ve come to Snake River for adrenaline inducing rapids, then there are plenty of tours to take you onto some challenging stretches. Joining a dozen-or-so fellow passengers, you’ll tackle an eight-mile (13-km) stretch of river that hosts Class II and Class III rapids, which are challenging but still manageable for most first timers who want to get right into it. If you’d like to get in the river and swim, there are some calmer stretches along the route that will allow for this, too. From $99 per person.
Snake River Class 2-3 Whitewater Rafting Adventure
Another thrilling rapids trip from Jackson Hole offers multiple daily trips during the summer months. Paddle every rapid in these small boats, taking on Class II and III rapids with names like Ropes, Big Kahuna and 3-ordeal.

text: A vector containing the leftward promoter (pL) as transcription initiation signal and a synthetic, easily adaptable translation initiation region have been constructed. We have used the expression system to assess the relevance of sequences upstream from the Shine-Dalgarno (SD) region in the translational-initiation process. To this end, a series of structural variants of the prototype ribosome-binding site were used to direct the synthesis of both mature human fibroblast interferon and beta-galactosidase (beta-gal). It was found that alterations 5' to the SD element can considerably affect the rate of mRNA translation. The observation that the relative efficiency of the various 5'-untranslated regions depends on the downstream coding information implies that secondary (and/or tertiary) structure formation is of major importance in the initiation process. But an mRNA folding, in which the SD and ATG determinant are set free in single-stranded regions, does not unconditionally guarantee an efficient initiation of translation.

BUENOS AIRES — Harsh frosts over recent days joined severe dryness in punishing Argentina’s recently planted wheat crop, with yields having been pressed lowered since the adverse weather started in May, the Buenos Aires Grains Exchange said on Thursday.
Wheat sowing for the 2020/21 season ended over the last week, it said, with a final surface of 6.5 million hectares having been planted. The area estimate had been cut from an original forecast of 6.8 million hectares due to dryness.
tap here to see other videos from our team.
“In the last week there have been frosts of varying intensity in practically the entire national agricultural area,” a report said, with some of the frosts hitting fields that had been passing through delicate stages of crop development.
It said the frosts in some earlier-planted farm areas had caused “irreversible damage.”
Argentina is a major world exporter of wheat and in the 2019/20 season produced 18.8 million tonnes of the grain.
