The birds are then relaxing at the beach again, but a sun rail starts popping everything inflatable, including the bouncy castle that the hatchlings were in. They then launch a hot sauce bottle off the slingshot, which hits a pig that was at a Taco Hog restaurant asking for hot sauce. Red looks through the binoculars and sees that it was Leonard with Courtney at Piggy Island and the pigs that were launching pies on them. Chuck sees a pie coming out of nowhere. Red then takes Chuck's binoculars and looks through them. They get scared and duck, but the pie hits a duck's face. He demands Bomb and Chuck to look at their binoculars. Vincent, Zoe, and Samantha are building a Sand Castle. The movie starts with Bird Island's inhabitants utilizing the slingshot transit system to get to where they need to go across an expanded Bird Village. However, a purple eagle bird named Zeta, tired of living on a cold island, starts to put the lives of both the birds and pigs at risk, making them put their differences aside and embark on a new adventure to end this plan and save their worlds and lives. ![]() However, Leonard (King Mudbeard), after the destruction of his city and castle in the war, puts his revenge in practice with new assistants, leading to another small war involving the birds and pigs.

9/6/2023 0 Comments Honey press![]() ![]() It's this press which is the important bit of the story. ![]() This he 'sealed' by twisting it's opening, then placed it on his home-made press. There was one video link in particular which was nothing short of brilliant - a Russian/Ukranian guy boiled-up a load of old wax combs and then placed them into a fruit-press type of bag. The other possible lead also comes from Greg - he posted some time back about methods of extracting wax. The honey extractor is a single-use and expensive device for a small-scale beekeeper hobby beekeepers don't really need that money-waste no matter what they are told (unless they are awash in disposable cash).ĭunno how relevant this is but Greg posted a while back about a small-scale DIY extractor - I don't know what the outcome of the thread was, or how relevant it might be - but just thought I'd mention it. Just too expensive for a limited use device.Ī press is just a little bit better than the honey extractor since it has a multi-use property. I thought of buying a press and every time turned the idea down - not worth it for me (even if I factored in fruit/berry pressing). The press should apply lots of force to dry the residue on the very first pass - so that should work well. Now, these are cheap, kitchen projects done regular utensils. fine chopping) of the combs and NO pressing them - drains the combs really well with minimal effort (in warm conditions). Reason - the while mashing produces faster results initially but - the mashing also plugs up the utensils and captures a lot of honey in the residue.Īnd so you end up doing and redoing and redoing this again to dry the residue better. So, mincing and draining is faster and easier overall AND leaves drier residue also. mashing and draining (using a potato masher). The main advantage I see with foundation is the straight comb they build. They actually amaze me with the speed they build it when they need it. ![]() It did appear to me that once the colony is strong and there is a nectar flow, they will build comb like there is no tomorrow. I cannot really say with certainty that bees take much longer when they have to build comb too. My experience is limited, and I generally just use full sheets of foundation, but I did start off with foundationless/starter-strips. I'm not really counting kilos of honey, this is just a hobby but I'm still not 100% sure that will make much difference anyway. I am also aware of the fact that like crush and strain, there are no stickies to return, so the bees have to start from scratch. Very easy to clean too - just hose it off on the lawn, after you let the bees take most of the left over. It has large holes in the inside bucket and after pressing I think it should be all good in an hour. On further research the biggest one of those presses should be able to take 6-8 frames. It still is a very rudimentary apparatus (unlike my Flow Hives where many things can go wrong) What I want to avoid with a honey press is the day of dripping waiting for all the honey to drip out. I like the simplicity of that filter bag. Not many videos on YouTube, so obviously they’re not that popular (maybe for a good reason?) Is one preferable over the other for honey? Will a 10L one let me press them all at once? Some come with just one perforated bucket on a large spouted saucer, others have an external bucket. My question is, are honey presses a viable long term extractor for just two hives? Or are they a romantic blast from the past that I quickly start hating after a season pressing? I can see them being a great family activity with my young kids, but want to make sure I keep on enjoy using the honey press.Ĭhances are I won’t be extracting more than 6 or 8 deep frames at a time. I can also see the advantage of being able to harvest wax, which I can’t do with my Flow hives. It has got the advantage of being multi purpose pressing other produce. So I’ve been looking into the viability of a honey press. That’s why a Flow hive seemed ideal at the time. I’m only allowed to keep two hives here, and storage space for an extractor is limited, with no garage and a full small shed. My experience with them has been rough and am seriously considering selling them and use a traditional extraction method. This is my fourth beekeeping season and been using only two Flow hives. ![]() ![]() ![]() Like a college freshman taking an intro class on gender – or perhaps like a high-schooler seeing a mass-market blockbuster with a developed political streak for the first time – Barbie becomes abruptly aware of the untenable societal pressures heaped upon womankind, released in a cathartic monologue by normal-person surrogate America Ferrera. The reactionary weirdoes decrying Barbie as peddling the “woke” agenda haven’t pulled much of a gotcha, accurately summarizing the textual substance of a film about one woman’s sudden burst of institutional consciousness. With a little help from walking #NotAllMen counterpoint Allan (Michael Cera), Barbie must open her sisters’ eyes to the reality that there’s more middle ground to womanhood than being an accessory to a man or a flawless exemplar of femininity. Before you can say “Simone de Beauvoir”, he’s instituted a full-blown patriarchy with all the once-empowered Barbies brainwashed into submissive, beer-serving pleasure slaves. She’s shattered to find that she isn’t the inspirational role model she imagined herself to be, but he’s delighted to discover a power structure that places him and his brethren on top, and carries this thrilling new ideology back to Barbie Land. As in their feminist Eden, Barbie and Ken came expecting a female president, female garbage-haulers, female Nobel laureates and a coterie of adoring, pliable men just grateful to share their presence. Her search for a cure directs her to the real world, where she’s shocked to find that our Earth bears little resemblance to the estrogen-fueled paradise she left behind. ![]() Photograph: Courtesy of Warner Bros Pictures/Courtesy Warner Bros Pictures Horror of horrors – she’s becoming a real woman. In this land of rictus smiles and relentless sunshine, imperfection is a cardinal sin Barbie’s existential crisis kicks into gear as she notices a small patch of cellulite on her thigh, and that her naturally high-heeled feet now stand flat on the ground. An upbeat song by Lizzo delivers exposition like a commercial jingle, narrating each of Barbie’s actions as she performs them. During an argument, Ken hurls Barbie’s wardrobe out through the missing fourth wall of her home, and each outfit momentarily flattens into a display-fold with logo and caption while suspended in the air. If Barbie and Ken were to kiss, one assumes they would do so by mashing their faces together at a diagonal.Įvery aspect of the first act’s setting has been informed by the rituals and aesthetics of toys and their attendant media, harkening back to the brand-savvy of The Lego Movie. When Ken (Ryan Gosling) hurts himself, Doctor Barbie heals him in the space of a single sentence. The chipper, blunt dialogue sounds like the internal monologue of an eight-year-old’s imagination, declaring every day forever and ever to be the best day ever. This realm is governed not by the laws of nature, but by the childlike illogic of playtime: Margot Robbie’s Stereotypical Barbie drinks from an empty cup, bounces off of plastic water and floats from her top-floor bedroom down to her car on the street as if carried by an invisible hand. Read on for a discussion of the internal logic, the peppy pop politics, the cameos and everything else bundled with this shiny new cinematic playset: It’s a Barbie world, with physics to matchįollowing a Kubrick-aping prologue that introduces Barbie in the place of 2001: A Space Odyssey’s monumental black obelisk, the film descends on Barbie Land, a soundstage fantasy of Dream Houses painted in hyper-saturated color. Now that Gerwig’s latest is out there painting multiplexes an eye-searing shade of pink, we can issue the strongest spoiler alert warning possible and pop Barbie’s head off to see what’s going on inside her cavernous neck hole. ![]() ![]() Even the trailers affirming that Barbie makes the interdimensional montage from her reality to ours with Ken in tow still conceal so much of the substance and atmosphere of a film with much more on its mind than the typical Hollywood product. Gerwig’s thoughtful track record as a film-maker suggested that she wouldn’t take the gig unless she had something up her ruffled taffeta sleeve, leading many to theorize a meta element possibly sending Barbie into the real world, but nobody could have guessed the extent to which the director-co-writer has taken the concept and run with it. ![]() 9/6/2023 0 Comments Mysql terminal mac![]() ![]() Don’t worry, if you happen to forget that password, it’s not that difficult to recover MySQL root password on your Mac.

This day marks the birth of an advocacy organisation, which has as one of its main goals, the preservation of sign languages and Deaf culture as pre-requisites to the realisation of the human rights of deaf people. The choice of 23 September commemorates the date that the WFD was established in 1951. The resolution A/RES/72/161 was sponsored by the Permanent Mission of Antigua and Barbuda to the United Nations, co-sponsored by 97 United Nations Member States and adopted by consensus on 19 December 2017. The proposal for the Day came from the World Federation of the Deaf (WFD), a federation of 135 national associations of deaf people, representing approximately 70 million deaf people’s human rights worldwide. ![]() It also emphasizes the principle of “nothing about us without us” in terms of working with Deaf communities. It recognizes the importance of preserving sign languages as part of linguistic and cultural diversity. The resolution establishing the day acknowledges that early access to sign language and services in sign language, including quality education available in sign language, is vital to the growth and development of the deaf individual and critical to the achievement of the internationally agreed development goals. The UN General Assembly has proclaimed 23 September as the International Day of Sign Languages in order to raise awareness of the importance of sign language in the full realization of the human rights of people who are deaf. It makes clear that sign languages are equal in status to spoken languages and obligates states parties to facilitate the learning of sign language and promote the linguistic identity of the Deaf community. The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities recognizes and promotes the use of sign languages. It is considered a pidgin form of sign language that is not as complex as natural sign languages and has a limited lexicon. There is also an international sign language, which is used by deaf people in international meetings and informally when travelling and socializing. Sign languages are fully fledged natural languages, structurally distinct from the spoken languages. Collectively, they use more than 300 different sign languages. ![]() More than 80% of them live in developing countries. Deaf communities, governments and civil society organisations maintain their collective efforts - hand in hand - in fostering, promoting and recognising national sign languages as part of their countries’ vibrant and diverse linguistic landscapes.Īccording to the World Federation of the Deaf, there are more than 70 million deaf people worldwide. During the 2022 celebration of the International Day of Sign Languages, the world will once again highlight the unity generated by our sign languages. The International Day of Sign Languages is a unique opportunity to support and protect the linguistic identity and cultural diversity of all deaf people and other sign language users. ![]() ![]() ![]() Your browser does not support the audio element.

His journey in timber framing began on the northern coast of California in 1970, when by chance he joined a group of individuals in the construction of a joined timber frame. Steve Chappell is a builder at heart and a teacher by nature. ![]() Illustrated with over 500 photos and CAD drawings. and that timber framing really is the Jazz of building. In addition, there is an expanded element of color and nuance to help the reader more fully understand the magic of timber framing. While the essential book is the same, virtually every element is expanded in some way to paint a more vibrant picture of the technical aspects of how to build a traditional timber frame. The impetus for this revision was in large part to update and to include these new testing results so that the readers would be privy to the latest engineering results available for timber frame joinery.Īlong the way, over 150 new photos and drawings were added and editorial additions were made to clarify specific conditions, or to more fully explain a critical aspect of timber framing. In the past five or six years testing has at last been carried out for a number of the most common pegged joinery conditions and the results have been published. However, nothing ever beats a direct test for a specific condition as the results end with an emphatic exclamation point. This is common in engineering as the essential physical laws concerning force and motion, primarily Newtonian physics, are symmetrical. The corollaries that could be made at that time were drawn from testing results for bolted connections. When this book was first published in 1998, scientific testing results for pegged mortise and tenon joinery simply did not exist. At last, it was published for general distribution in 1998. Over a period of a number of years several revisions and additions took place, as it was used as the handout workshop manual for Fox Maple Timber Framing Workshops. ![]() The major portion of A Timber Framer's Workshop was first written back in 1983.

The book goes on to thoroughly discuss a very broad variety of design options and joinery details for virtually any situation one may ever confront in constructing complex, joined timber framed roof systems.īeautifully illustrated with over 870 color photographs and illustrations, Chappell presents a complete and comprehensive geometric and mathematical system in this work. ![]() Though the subject can be quite complex, the emphasis on developing a strong visual mental image at the outset is strengthened through the use of numerous photographs and illustrations. The focus is on discovering the systems and techniques used to build vernacular medieval timber framed roof systems.īook Two moves into the technical aspects of how to begin the process of designing complex, compound joinery by first developing the geometric model. Through the proportions of the golden mean, phi and the Fibonacci sequence, metaphors to music and the jazz of timber framing, Chappell begins to develop a template that includes both sound and harmonics as fundamental aspects of the design medium.Ĭhappell then goes on to explore the early development and history of timber framed roof systems from the 12th century Stave Churches, medieval Tithe Barns and Market Halls of Europe, to the ancient Pagodas of China and Japan. In this section, Chappell draws parallels between the significance of proper design proportions, harmonics and the feel that resonates between these elements and the craftsman's touch. The work is divided into two parts, Book One: Design & History, and Book Two: Geometry & Joinery Systems.īook One begins with a chapter titled, The Elements of Design. Drawn from over 35 years of experience building and teaching advanced timber framing, this book combines both the nuance one might expect, and also a broad and colorful overview of the history and development of compound hip and valley timber frame roof systems and joinery. ![]() |
