![]() YMMV, but rechargeables have worked the best for me (And it will require no extra effort to use them with the Xbox One). This one-piece flight stick combo works great on the Xbox Series X and PC. You do also have to replace them after a few years, but I find they last a lot longer in general, hold a better charge, you can use them for anything, and I only have to change my controller batteries once a week give or take.

Now, I've had these battery packs forever, so I got a lot of usage out of them and I'm not upset that they no longer work. The Play & Charge kit doesn't fully charge the battery unless you aren't using it, and it also makes my Turtle Beaches make that "dead battery" buzzing sound. I've gone through about 6 of the battery packs and I can no longer use any of them because they hold a charge for about an hour. I have purchased the actual battery packs with the charger, 2 Play & Charge kits and have rechargeable batteries. I have had my Xbox 360 for maybe 5, going on 6 years.

Two-thirds of those bottle fed with vanilla as infants preferred the vanilla ketchup, whereas two thirds of the rest were like “blech!” and chose the regular ketchup. They had to choose something that no one would have ever associated with vanilla. But they couldn’t just use your typical vanilla flavored confection because it could introduce too many other new variables. Do we subconsciously remember tastes and smells from our infancy before we could even put them into words? They realized that there was a time certain German infant formulas were flavored with vanilla, so they challenged a group of adults with a vanilla-containing food. Researchers wanted to know if our olfactory memory goes back even further than our verbal memory. The most unusual vanilla study may be one published out of Germany in 1999. There was also a study showing that vanilla extract may interfere with bacterial communication, concluding vanilla “might promote human health by…preventing bacterial pathogenesis.” ![]() There are two in vitro studies that suggest vanillin, one of the many aromatic compounds in vanilla, may be protective against colorectal and cervical cancer, but no clinical or epidemiological studies have been published to my knowledge. Given its popularity, I was surprised there wasn’t more science published on the health effects of vanilla orchid fruit phytonutrients. The vanilla question is interesting, though. Regular commercial almond milks often offer fortification of: I discuss this in more detail in my video Prostate Cancer & Organic Milk vs. In contrast, almond milk suppressed the growth of these cancer cells by over 30%. If the only way you would drink green tea is with the sweetened variety, then overall it would be healthier for you to stick with the added sugar (though your taste buds would probably adapt to the unsweetened variety), or you could try adding a harmless sweetener such as date sugar.Īlmond milk is certainly superior to calf’s milk, if only because of the lack of saturated animal fat, cholesterol, and hormones (see, for example, my videos Acne & Cancer Connection and Trans Fat, Saturated Fat, and Cholesterol: Tolerable Upper Intake of Zero )Ĭows’ milk has been found to stimulate the growth of prostate cancer cells in each of 14 separate experiments, producing an average increase in cancer growth rate of over 30%. We get only about 2,000 in the calorie bank every day–why not try to make them count? So almond milk versus almond milk with added sugar is a no-brainer decision for me, but I guess it depends on what you’re using it for. In general, I’m in favor of cutting down on intake of empty calories whenever possible. What Is The Difference Between Sweetened And Unsweetened Almond Milk? Is almond milk healthier than calf’s milk? And is unflavored, unsweetened almond milk preferable to sweetened vanilla? ![]() Log into UDO and click the Microsoft 365 tile Certain steps and visual elements may vary on older version of macOS.ġ.

Our first saw (acquired when we were age 10) was made by Highland Park Manufacturing and we greatly admire and respect the pioneering work they did in creating quality lapidary equipment that still can be found in operation today. We started manufacturing the Highland Park Style Slab Saw because we believe this design is the very best. We think a big reason for this is that equipment is simply too expensive and often too poorly built to enable a new enthusiast to be successful. Over the last 20 years we’ve seen the lapidary industry in the US shrink in size as less and less people have come into the hobby. Simple stated, our equipment is Built to Last a Lifetime™. We design all our products in our shop in Texas and manufacture them in our factory in China staffed with our own employees who we personally manage to insure the highest quality every step of the way. You’ll see our 40+ year passion for lapidary when you experience our equipment and visit our other businesses The Rare Earth Trading Company (and Spheres To You (At Highland Park Lapidary we manufacture high performance slab saws, sphere cutting machines, specialized diamond tooling and oil cleaners. We feel it’s important to actually know something about cutting to design and build quality lapidary tools. It’s our passion for cutting that has led us to building equipment that enables many hours of pleasurable and productive cutting. ![]() The Soviet pioneers, along with other filmmakers such as David Mamet and Alfred Hitchcock had convinced me of this. I even went as far as to say that the very definition of a movie is two images cut together to give a third meaning. Another example would be the intercutting of a soldier’s murder with the slaughtering of a water buffalo in “Apocalypse Now” (idea: the soldier’s life must be sacrificed for the war just as the buffalo must be sacrificed for the tribe), or the cut from Lenny Bruce’s courtroom plea to an image of his dead body at the climax of “Lenny” (idea: the court killed Lenny when they censored him).Įver since learning about Soviet Montage Theory, I have been a huge believer in it. The most famous use of this method may also be the single most famous cut in cinema history: when the ape throws up a bone in “2001: A Space Odyssey”, then cutting to a bone-shaped spacecraft in the distant future (idea: the dawn of man). This method is the END ALL, BE ALL of Soviet Montage Theory – cutting two images together to create a third meaning. Intellectual: When done correctly, Intellectual Montage might be the most exciting form of cutting. Yes, there are beats (metric), there are scenes (rhythmic) and there are sequences (tonal), but put them all together and you have your Spine (overtonal).ĥ. A writing analogy would probably be the “Spine” of a story. It took me a while to understand the difference between Overtonal and Tonal, and I’m not sure I fully get it yet, but I believe Overtonal Montage simply stands for the feeling the viewer has after watching the film. Overtonal: Combining Metric, Rhythmic and Tonal cutting together creates Overtonal Montage. Two shots with two tones cut together to create a third tone/meaning.Ĥ. Imagine a scene in which you cut between a loud, crazy party on the first floor of a house and the quiet, secluded loneliness of a boy in his room upstairs. But the idea here is that you can create a stronger meaning by cutting images together with the same or conflicting tones. At first, this method may seem to fly in the face of Soviet Montage Theory, given that it acknowledges the possibility of individual meaning within the shot, outside of the cut. For example, a sleeping baby would emote calmness and relaxation. Tonal: Cutting based on the emotional meaning of the shots – not just manipulating the temporal length of the cuts or its rhythmic characteristics - to elicit a reaction from the audience even more complex than from the metric or rhythmic montage. Watch Lee Van Cleef’s fingers inch closer and closer to his gun, dictating a cut back to Eastwood’s reacting eyes.ģ. Watch Clint Eastwood’s eyes move back and forth, dictating where the shot cuts to next. The most famous use of Rhythmic Montage is the climax to “The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly”. Once sound was introduced, rhythmic montage also included audial elements (music, dialogue, sounds). Here, movement takes precedence over length. It’s about how the movement in one image affects the movement of the next. ![]() Rhythmic: Cutting based on time, but using the visual composition of the shots - along with a change in the speed of the metric cuts - to induce more complex meanings than what is possible with metric montage. Metric: Basic cutting from one moment to the next (based purely on the physical nature of time) no matter what is happening in the image.Ģ. While Kuleshov, Pudovkin and Vertov put forth explanations of what constitutes the montage effect, Eisenstein’s view that “montage is an idea that arises from the collision of independent shots” wherein “each sequential element is perceived not next to the other, but on top of the other” has become most widely accepted.Īccording to Eisenstein, there are five METHODS OF MONTAGE.ġ. These four pioneers founded an approach to understanding and creating cinema that relies heavily upon editing which we call Soviet Montage Theory. Among these minds were Sergei Eisenstein, Lev Kuleshov, Vsevolod Pudovkin, and Dziga Vertov. While Sergei Eisenstein is the most remembered today, it’s important not to forget that he was but one member of an entire movement in world cinema history that took place in the USSR from 1910 to the mid-1930s. I have recently been studying the works of the early Soviet film pioneers and their respective texts. ![]() So who exactly were the Cynics? And what did they believe?ģ. Unsurprisingly, Cynicism has gained a reputation for eccentricity ever since it first appeared in Ancient Greece. The Cynics lived ascetic lifestyles, often dwelling in the streets and engaging in public defecation, much like dogs. While there’s some debate about why the Cynics adopted this name, many academics believe that the word was hurled at Cynic philosophers due to their bizarre and unconventional behavior. The word ‘cynic’ derives from the Ancient Greek kynikos meaning ‘dog-like’ or kyôn (dog). Like many words, cynicism has evolved over thousands of years to mean something very different to its original use. Back then, it referred to philosophers with a very specific set of beliefs (which we’ll explore in more detail below). The word derives from Cynicism, a school of philosophy which first appeared in Ancient Greece. In fact, the word ‘cynical’ has long and ancient etymological roots. In other words, if somebody describes you as cynical, then it isn’t really much of a compliment! However, the term hasn’t always carried such negative overtones. ![]() Today, the term ‘cynical’ means something along the lines of ‘motivated by self-interest’ and/or ‘mistrusting of people and their intentions’. The Meaning of the Term ‘Cynicism’ Has Changed Over the Centuries Alexander visiting Diogenes, late 18th–early 19th century, author unknown, via the Met Museum. The four walls and roof of a regular house were luxuries he could easily forego.Ģ. He found a large clay wine jar to shelter inside and quickly realized that he could live in the jar quite comfortably. But when the friend failed to respond to his letter, Diogenes simply roamed the streets. He was banished from the city for defacing coins, and arrived in Athens with no prospects and nowhere to stay.Īccording to one source, Diogenes wrote to a friend of his and asked if they knew of any available accommodation in Athens. He was supposedly one of Antisthenes’ first pupils, eventually dedicating his entire life to the practice of Cynicism.ĭiogenes began this process when he first arrived in Athens after being exiled from his home town of Sinope (a coastal city in modern day Turkey). Diogenes was likely born around 404 BC and died in 320 BC. Only a few scraps of information exist today, but we can still piece together some of his biography. Most of what we know about Diogenes comes from later philosophers who didn’t know him during his lifetime. Diogenes of Sinope Was a Strange Man Diogenes by John William Waterhouse ![]() ![]() A low sensitivity setting, meanwhile, requires large movements to turn on the lights. If the sensitivity is too high, then even a leaf falling may trigger the lights. Motion sensor lights typically have unique settings to adjust range and sensitivity. Now, test to see if the issue is resolved. Next, find the fixture’s light switch and turn it off for 5 seconds then turn it back on again. If it is on, then turn it off for 30 seconds before turning it back on again. Head to your electric panel and check the respective circuit breaker.
