![]() What to Look for When Buying a Kitchen Timer Functionįigure out what you want in a kitchen timer. We then used this research to assign a star rating from one to five (five being the best one being the worst) to certain products on the list. To compile this list, our team of editors and contributors spent hours researching the best kitchen timers on the market, evaluating their key features-like ease of use, display size, or time range-in addition to reviews from customers and other trusted sources. For a budget-friendly, basic option, we recommend the Digital Kitchen Timer by Antoki, which comes in a convenient two-pack for a low price. If you’re in the market for a great timer that can track multiple countdowns at once, is easy to use, and boasts great visibility, we recommend the Oxo Good Grips Triple Timer. Range: 60 minutes | Dimensions: 4.21 x 4.06 x 2.83 inches | Weight: 3.84 ounces | Batteries: 2 AAA, not included | Warranty: 2 years Since it only times up to an hour, it's better used for shorter bakes like apple strudel or grilled potato skins. Thanks to its built-in stand, the timer can sit on any kitchen counter without fear of falling over. Hate the sound of clocks ticking? Don't worry, this alarm is completely silent while counting down. The timer has two helpful slider controls-one for volume and one for the length of time the alarm goes off. While Secura's timer seems old-fashioned with its hand-crank timer and analog display, there are several modern features to make cooking easy. Not only is it great to visualize the passage of time, but it makes it easy to read if you're all the way across the room multitasking. What really sets this timer apart from others is the red disk that disappears as time goes on. The wind-up timer comes in eight bold colors, each with a large display face. This 60-minute timer from Secura scratches that itch while also keeping you on task. There's something satisfying about winding up a mechanical device. Rotating counterclockwise can cause damage Range: 100 hours | Dimensions: 2.9 x 2.5 x 4 inches | Weight: 0.395 lbs | Batteries: 3 AAA, included | Warranty: Limited lifetime Clumsy cooks best not fret about it crashing to the ground the nonslip bottom keeps this timer stable on the counter and protects the surface. The angled face makes the display clearly visible as you mosey around the kitchen. ![]() The latest model boasts a bigger, inverse backlit display that’s clear and easier to read and redesigned buttons that are intuitively positioned, soft, and easy to press. The extensive span of time is especially useful for braises and roasts that may need to cook over several hours, or even a holiday turkey and its iconic sides. The timers can also be used as a stopwatch to count up instead of down. It has three 100-hour digital countdowns, each with a unique alarm sound and adjustable volume to allow for optimal multitasking.
![]() When swapping Symbol instances for the first time, the Swap at Original Size checkbox is now unchecked by default.This feels a bit more in line with what you’d expect in this scenario. If you hide collaborator names and cursors in your document, we will no longer show their selections either.Also, text input fields now resize more consistently as you edit. The ⏎ and ⇧⏎ shortcuts now consistently create a new line when editing text overrides on the Canvas, in the Overrides panel, and when editing comment fields.Sketch is now much more responsive when copying and pasting large Artboards between pages or documents, so you should see fewer beach balls (unless that’s what you’re designing).You can now enable or disable all overrides for a Symbol source via a new checkbox at the top of the Manage Overrides Inspector section.The Size Instance to Fit Content option is now available in the Layer menu (which means you can also create a shortcut for it).Our heartfelt thanks to the testers in Sketch community forum (jkilp, eurlichallan, joe, dale, valentin, AACourt, KarlCanBeCool, Dave, leohans, Giancarlo, fab1An, flowxd_io, vattic, rachael, noe, samvermette, srkkrs) for their insights and feedback as we worked on this. You’ll also notice many quality-of-life improvements to Smart Layout, including Layer List icons, keyboard shortcuts, Foresight support, and the ability to pause Smart Layout temporarily on a group or Artboard. Better still, it behaves far more predictably. You can now use Smart Layout with groups, Artboards and Symbols. Taking Smart Layout beyond Symbols We released Smart Layout in Groups as an experimental feature in March, and since then we’ve worked hard to expand its capabilities. ![]() Last 3 Kobo's (Nia, Libra 2 and Clara 2e) have same motherboard and worldwide many crash and poor battery life complaints. The Boox is so much superior to the Kobo including better battery life which is strange because it runs Android and has same size battery as that Kobo.īTW. But because the Kobo (Clara 2e) was also extremely slow (internal storage is a freaking SD card), unstable and had poor battery life, I returned it within the 4 week return window and bought an Onyx Boox instead, that supports any Android app. The purchase of a Kobo forced me to get to know KOReader because Kobo's own reader is awfully limited and mediocre. (Except on e-ink Moon looks less good, not optimized for that type of display). But while I have bought and used better looking and more simple Moon Reader Pro for years, I completely switched. Two evenings of 1 to 2 hours experimenting and playing with the app and then suddenly there was a turning point and I knew the app like my back pocket. We feature the most PDF readers for Android on make computer simplified and easy to manage PDF archive on your smartphone with tablet. If remember correctly Readera can also text reflow PDF similar as Librera. ![]() Other slightly less good but oke apps with text reflow for PDF are Xodo (still have to scroll down each page a bit), Adobe Reader, Librera (converts PDF to epub, Pro version free at F-Droid). ![]() Might have to enable text reflow button in tool bar via PDF settings (these settings only accessible when a PDF is opened). Are you looking for a PDF Reader app that supports reading PDF files on a low-capacity device A PDF Opener that quickly opens PDF pages, helps document.

Our SDK provides first-rate PDF solutions for your application with features like annotating. Get the secure, fast, and powerful PDF app on your phone, tablet, or desktop. KOReader has a learning curve, but once you know how it works and how to use this app, it blows any ebook app out of the water including Moon.

This shouldn't be at all surprising for those familiar with the way Disney repeatedly advertises itself in all its product. Take a pen and make two circles around the hilt of the blades (or torches, as the case may be) behind the skull at the center of the poster. Blacken the whole thing and, voila, you have the recognizable silhouette of a very famous mouse. You can make Mickey yourself from the Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl poster. When the intellectual property made the leap to the big screen, the company wanted to make damn sure people knew who had dominion over the high seas. You've probably fallen for these coded messages without even realizing it.Įven when it was nothing but a creepy animatronic ride, Disney was seriously proud of Pirates of the Caribbean. There aren't laws against ads with hidden messages, so it's perfectly acceptable for advertising executives to put subliminal advertising in action. ![]() Of course, being a slave to corporations and banks isn't as nefarious as it sounds, but that doesn't mean capitalist subliminal messages embedded in public spaces aren't ethically questionable. What better way is there to celebrate Christmas, for instance, than to share a coke with someone you love? Wait, does Coke have anything to do with Jesus? Why would you drink cold soda when it's freezing outside? What are those polar bears doing? Are they going to eat Santa? This is a trick of association, not mind-control, but real examples of subliminal advertising are more prevalent than you might think. Popular brands use subliminal advertising to ensure consumer loyalty, hopefully across multiple generations. And coded messages in advertisements keep dutiful, unwoke consumers coming back to the trough for more slop every time a fresh batch is whipped up. The desire of the consumer changes the make up of society, not always for the better, as conscious consumerism is an unwelcome value. Jobs disappear from wealthy nations only to reappear in poor ones, so those who own companies can drive down cost and increase profit. Annual holidays revolve around it, children are reared on the dogma of corporate product, those in developing nations spend disposable income on products made by those in developing nations. Consumer culture drives and directs global society. ![]() Two public baths, with an entrance fee of 300 to 500 yen (between 2 and 4 €), are open in the center of the city, as well as a free foot bath.Īt nightfall, gas lamps light up to shed a beautiful light on the freshly fallen snow. In this case, count between 300 and 1,500 yen (between 2 and 12 € approximately). We have to admit that the very special atmosphere of this village of Tohoku region is very pleasant! The city is composed of only one street, lined with ryokan and traditional wooden buildings dating from Taisho era (1912 - 1926) and Shôwa era (1926-1989).Įach ryokan allows access to its onsen without the obligation to rent a room. In Yamagata prefecture, a former silver mine has become one of the most popular spas for onsen lovers in winter: Ginzan Onsen (ginzan = silver mine). These hot baths, whose water comes from volcanic springs, have been known for centuries to have a certain therapeutic value. Onsen, or hot springs, are a real institution in Japan.

The possibility to climb it in half a day explains in part this success. This figure is much higher than that of Mount Monadnock in the United States, the second most climbed mountain with about 125,000 people per year. Mount Fuji is also the most climbed mountain in the world! Although the official climbing season lasts only a little more than two months, Mount Fuji welcomes nearly 300,000 climbers every year. Its beauty would almost make us forget this detail. Popularized by media such as magazines and documentaries, but also by art through paintings and prints, the beauty of this mountain is fascinating.ģ776 meters high, Mount Fuji is composed of 3 active volcanoes which could wake up one day.

The only levels I see as harder in Vengeance is the Anurian levels, so yes it would be useful. I'm not against FF, the only KR game where I've had to repeat levels over and over again was the first KR on the elite levels, and that would have made life so much easier, however I never got bored of replaying them over and over again trying new tactics in the early waves. I understand why FF would be great, and if the devs of KR decide to add it, I'd be ecstatic, since I'd be able to complete levels quicker. Anyway, I'm sure we could go back and forth, I'm just saying that in my opinion I don't mind having no FF option but, I can see why people would want it Also doesn't help the first bunch of waves in nearly every level are super slow and easy anyway. Let's say a level has 15 waves, and you nail everything up to wave 14 perfectly or very very well, but you made a mistake on wave 14 or 15, then now, you need to restart the entire thing. Assigning the action to a specific key will solve this problem and allow you to play much more easily with Bluestacks.Originally posted by Drop:People still can't seem to grasp why fast-forward is good. Misclicking might lead to you losing the chance to get three stars on the level. Selecting the reinforcement or special power button before deploying it anywhere on the map could be a tedious task. For example, rather than clicking on a tower type twice to place it on its spot on the map, you could just select the spot with the mouse and press space to build an Archer’s tower there right away. However, you can use shortcut keybinds to do certain actions quickly and without getting annoyed by clicking the same button twice to confirm the action. To do any task, you will have to click on the buttons on the screen. There are not any keys required to play the game, only a lot of clicking. Kingdom Rush can mainly be played using the mouse. Configure and Change Kingdom Rush Controls You’ll be ready to buy multiple items from the shop which will make the game much easier to go through. Each has its own uses, benefits, and weaknesses. ![]() For example, after upgrading your archer tower to level 3, you can next upgrade it to either the Ranger’s Hideout or the Musketeers’ Garrison. You can upgrade each tower as you progress in the game and each has two separate upgrade paths, both of which have unique customizations. This is Ironhide Games’ third release on the service. Kingdom Rush Vengeance+ is coming to shake up the tower defense category on Apple Arcade. ![]() There are four basic tower types – Archer, Mage, Dwarven Bombard, and Militia Barracks. This is the last game of July for Apple Arcade subscribers. For example, armored goblins are vulnerable to magic, while being resistant to archers, artillery, and marksmen’s attacks. Specific enemies are weak to a certain type of tower while being almost immune to another type of tower. The huge variety of enemies as well as towers certainly make the gameplay more interesting. The game revolves around floods of enemies following a specific path to reach the citadel to occupy it and the player having to buy and place towers to take them out before they reach their objective. Kingdom Rush has a witty and polished take on this genre, improving the player experience while sticking true to the tower defense mechanics. ![]() When it comes to pool tables, materials play a major role in creating a positive pool experience.Ĭommon materials include medium-density fiberboard (MDF) and slate. Whether you're creating a room for serious gaming or a space for leisurely play, choosing the right pool table size is an important decision.

And those grisly death scenes - followed by an immediate return to the action from just 10 seconds previous - are the most jarring reminder of all that Tomb Raider is trying to be way more hardcore than it really is.Īnd it’s especially obvious in Rise of the Tomb Raider and Shadow of the Tomb Raider, where the survival theme is removed completely. The theme is writing checks that the design can’t cash, creating an incongruous mix between gameplay and narrative. And Lara has more ammo than Walmart, so you’re rarely scrounging for bullets. This isn’t some survival sim there’s no hunger meter. She then almost freezes to death before she finds a campfire, and almost starves to death before she kills a deer.īut this has always felt a bit flat to me, because this is all just thematic trappings on an otherwise standard shooter. And when she frees herself, she falls down and gets a bit of rebar through her gut. The first game, from 2013, kicks off with Lara hanging upside down from a rope. Now, okay, this most recent Tomb Raider trilogy did start a bit more grisly, I’ll admit. Shadow of the Tomb Raider is a fun, dark and puzzling critique of the franchise The Tomb Raider games, however, are far more action adventure and obviously inspired by the Uncharted games - games that don’t feel the need to show Nathan Drake’s bloody corpse writhing in agony on a rusty spike after you screw up a jump. These are horror games, after all, and they come from a lineage of horror movies where gruesome violence and bloody giblets and organs flopping out all over the place are a genre expectation. ![]() And Resident Evil 4, where Leon’s head can be lopped clean off by a madman with a chainsaw.Īnd they’re horrible, and I’ll wince like the baby that I am, but they totally make sense, and I wouldn’t call for them to be toned down. I’m down for protagonists’ violent death animations that crop up in games like Dead Space 2, where Isaac can be stabbed in the eye if you balls up a particular minigame. I never quite got why Tomb Raider has kept up this torture porny death animation thing… /6fCRV4iww5- Mark Brown October 23, 2018 These gruesome death scenes that play just before you get a “game over” have been part of the Tomb Raider DNA since 1996, when watching her rag-doll body crumple into a messy pile after a botched jump was just part of the experience.īut while the franchise has changed a lot in its many sequels and reboots - sometimes for the better, with Lara having more realistic proportions and sometimes for the worse, with actual tomb raiding becoming optional content alongside endless murder - these death sequences are one thing that have stayed the same.Īnd with all the advancements in tech - did you know there’s a real-time physics simulation dedicated to rendering Lara’s ponytail? - these scenes have become so realistic that they’ve almost tipped into being creepy torture porn. Watched her pelvis get obliterated under the weight of several boulders. Seen her writhe in pain as her stomach is pierced by a metal bar. Watched a tree branch jut through her jaw. ![]() Over the course of the last three Tomb Raider games, I have seen Lara Croft impaled on a spike. ![]() The lunch menu is similar to the dinner one, adding tortas and tostaditas to the mix. Can't decide what to order? Ask for the Chef's Cinco Platos: five tasting courses for $35 (available for dinner Thursday through Saturday). I don't know what huachinango is, but it had me at calabacitas, guajillo and hoja santa sauce.ĭesserts like the caprirotada (Mexican bread pudding) or pastel de chocolate range from $4 to $8. Each entrée's ingredients read like poetry. ![]() Others I can't wait to dig into, like the pato al pasilla with pan roasted duck breast, real blue corn tiacoyo, nopalitos and a smoky dark pasilla broth. Entradas ($17-23) like the pollo con mole and the carne Oaxaca are ones I've tasted at the first location and highly recommend. Start your meal off with a traditional 3-cheese queso fundido ($8.5), chicharrones served with queso poblano and brisket adobado ($8.5), or a simple sopa de lima ($5 a cup, $10 a bowl). There's a lot on the menu worthy of celebration, namely Spanish, Chilean and Argentinian wines ($7-$15/glass and $28-$56/bottle), margaritas featuring additions like avocado, mango or serrano peppers ($7-$12), and cocktails like the Mexican Martini and Mexican Mule ($6-$12). An oasis surrounded by the cold metal and gray cement of downtown Dallas, the strings of lights that crisscross Meso Maya's beautiful interior courtyard are sure to make every day feel like a fiesta. But don't you dare forget to walk outside. Brick, iron, stucco and wood are accented by bold colors like orange, green and brown that give the space a classy-festive feel. And La Ventana sits adjacent to Meso Maya II, on McKinney right near the new Perot Museum. In the latest expansion from Firebird Restaurant Group (the group that also owns El Fenix), Chef Nico Sanchez has created a new concept, La Ventana (Spanish for The Window, appropriately). Meso Maya is one of them, and now, luckily for us, there are two locations to choose from. Stay tuned, and in the meantime visit their website to view their menus and make a reservation at one of the two locations.There are only a tight handful of restaurants in Dallas that offer serious upscale Mex-Mex. If you haven’t experienced their massive menu of margaritas, top-shelf tequilas, and mezcal, you’re missing out. Following posts will include my review of the deserts and extensive collection of drinks at Meso Maya. The atmosphere on the patio isn’t something you would expect to find in the middle of downtown it’s a quiet escape from the big city to a land of delicious food and even more delicious drinks. The shrimp are fresh and expertly sautéed this dish was definitely my favorite overall, and I would go back to Meso Maya for this dish alone. The combination of the creamy tomatillo sauce and the budin is an incredible dish in itself, with the ideal balance of creamy to tangy with hints of lime. The Camaron includes sautéed mazatlan shrimp, serrano, cilantro, black beans, arugula, queso fresco, with a creamy tomatillo sauce. If you’ve never had this, the easiest way to describe it would be as a Mexican lasagna of sorts tortillas layered with generous helpings of various cheeses, including melted chihuahua cheese, monterrey jack, and queso asadero. Now on to one of my favourite dishes of the night, the Budin Azteca Cameron. ![]() Not too strong and refreshing, this is a great choice to have if you like cocktails with some spice and unique flavours. It features fresh muddled avocado, freshly squeezed pineapple and lime juices, cointreau, and don ramon tequila blanco. It also includes hints of pineapple and chili, which breaks up the cocktail nicely and provides a bite in the aftertaste. The Avocado Margarita is one of their most popular creations, made with fresh real avocado and their house tequila. These are the chronicles of only a small portion of the drinks at Meso Maya and my experiences with them. Especially now, with the temperatures rising to nuclear levels, some icy liquid relief is mandatory. As a bonus, it is Dallas Restaurant week, where you can get a 3-course meal at Meso Maya for only $45 a person, click HERE. ![]() Known for their extensive array of margaritas, I was happy to find they carried a variety of mezcal cocktails as well, otherwise tough to find in Dallas. Meso Maya, with two locations in downtown Dallas and on Preston and Forest, has all of that and more. If you’re having Mexican food, it’s bound to be accompanied by a margarita or two, or three, and finished off with tequila and mezcal. |
