Old vs new tupperware citrus peeler1/15/2024 ![]() “With the citrus twist being such a ubiquitous and critical addition to so many cocktails, I really can’t overstate the importance of a reliable Y peeler behind the bar,” she says. She relies on OXO’s all-purpose blade and soft, cushioned handles to peel her oranges and lemons. “It was beautiful and costly, but they have a tendency to disappear from busy bar tops, and it was impossible to sharpen without being a smith!” “Of the multitudes of peelers I’ve tried and discarded or broken, I keep coming back to these little budget miracles!” Percival notes that she once had a higher-end chrome peeler. “I really can’t overstate the importance of a reliable peeler behind the bar, and the OXO Good Grips Y peeler is my workhorse peeler,” describes Joan Percival, a bartender at Proof Whiskey Bar and Craft Cocktails. Material: Stainless steel | Color: Green | Dimensions (LxWxH): 6.25 x 3 x 1 inches | Dishwasher Safe: Yes ![]() “Kuhn Rikon’s Y peelers provide perfectly straight, thin pithless citrus peels and offer lightweight maneuverability for a fraction of what bigger, clunkier, high-end peelers cost.” Ultimately, she likes this one a lot for several reasons. I buy a couple of these bad boys every year, and they last a long time and stay sharp (if they're not left in water)-it’s even worth it even if you did have to replace them annually (or more)," she says. "Remember, the blade will eventually get rusty, especially if it’s left sitting in water. They're also great because they're not terribly expensive and therefore can be easily replaced. Not to mention the fact that they're small, lightweight, and easily fit in any size hand and thus lessen the likelihood that you knick your knuckle when moving quickly.” They are inexpensive, and there’s minimal pith left when peeling citrus due to the shape and angle of the blade. “When it comes to peelers, the very inexpensive Kuhn Rikon Original Swiss Y-peelers are the best thing you can have behind your bar,” says Hartranft.

![]() Double check that I connected my W wire correctly (not to toot my own horn but my job is literally low voltage system design engineering, so I was pretty confident that I connected a grand total of two wires correctly) ![]() swap in new batteries and try to update as fast as possible (will never work because 2 1.5V AAA batteries will never reach the 3.7V threshold) Their only proposed solutions at that point were: And after all that I STILL couldn't perform an update. This cleared the E297 error but started a different error because obviously the device could not detect the C wire. They told me to update my wiring in the Home app and tell it I had a common wire even though I didn't. Was on the phone with support and they had no clue, by the end of the call it was clear they knew less than I did. But I could not get the thermostat to download the software update due to the voltage threshold for update downloads (mine arrived with batteries at 2.09V), so it could not recognize the Power Connect and threw the E297 error. Just coming in here to say that I had the same problem yesterday - was installing Gen4 Nest with only the R and W wires, using a Power Connect. Master and margarita notes1/15/2024 ![]() By being seen as this, Margarita provides a much needed female character similar to that of Mary of Magdala for the biblical Yeshua chapters of the book, which are missing a female element. This situates her in a position of a "holy whore" character, a kind of Dostoevskian prostitute. While it is never explicitly mentioned in the novel that she has sexual intercourse with Woland in order to save her beloved master, I argue that the textual evidence points towards this act, as she in some ways replaces Woland’s previous helper, Hella. Stalin was a master of manipulation and excelled at playing a kind. ![]() Because of her sexuality and internalized child-like behavior, she is an attractive character and hence she is both feared by and attractive to men. Curtis notes that Bulgakovs attitude towards Stalin was politically naive but very human. I argue that Margarita was a witch before she met the supernatural characters from Woland’s troupe and before she symbolically bathed herself in the ointment given to them. Her main weapon that she uses to combat this unfair situation is her sexuality, which brings her not only to her Master, whose novel she adopts as a child and towards whom she acts in a motherly manner, but also to Woland. Despite her dynamic nature, suffering and display of bravery that supersedes many of the male character’s in the novel, she is denied the agency that she deserves based on her gender. This essay explores the sexual politics of Bulgakov’s Master and Margarita, with a special focus on the female heroine Margarita. Look, there ahead is your eternal home, which you have been given as a reward. ‘Listen to the stillness,’ Margarita said to the master, and the sand rustled under her bare feet, ‘listen and enjoy what you were not given in life peace.

Sermon manuscript example1/14/2024 ![]() You want your big idea to stick with your congregation. Take your big idea and write it in a way that is memorable. ![]() Goal: Make the big idea memorable so that it sticks with your congregation. It may not change much, but is there a better way to say it? Is there a slightly different direction it needs to take? A "big idea" example From Luke 22:39-62: Big idea: Jesus relied on God's strength as he faced the cross, allowing the same disciples who abandoned him to later be courageous in the face of death. Step 3: Finalize the "big idea" of the passageĪs you ’ve studied the text in more detail, has the big idea of the passage changed from what you wrote down? Now, you likely won't use everything you learn, but all the learnings you gain will help build into your mind and heart the meaning of the text. When you consult these various tools, it's going to be essential to write down your findings. In this step, you’ll need to consult things like: What have others said about the biblical passage you picked? Keep in mind that doing this may spark other sermon ideas or even full sermon series topics.īy doing this, you’ll have a better understanding of the flow of the particular biblical passage you're preaching on. If you’re reading from a more extensive book of the Bible, consider reading the one or two chapters before that passage and the one to two chapters after that passage. If you’re reading an epistle or shorter book of the Bible, read the entire thing. ![]() ![]() It's also a great idea to read the surrounding textual context. Are you seeing something different now?.Does it line up with what you wrote down a month to a year ago?.Then, you need to identify, once again, the big idea of the biblical passage by asking these questions: You want to get a good feel for what it's saying. Pull out your Bible and read through the biblical passage multiple times. Goal: Understand the biblical passage and be able to recognize its nuances so that you can handle God's word well. Keep mind that this guide on how to write a sermon is based on lots of practical research and observations. If this process doesn’t jive with your schedule, what you can do is add the steps together.įor example, you can knock out days 1-3 at whatever time you set aside to write your sermon. Now, as for the rest of the process and effective sermon prep, they’re broken down into a 7-day process. So work hard to strategize and get ahead. Writing a sermon or new year sermon from this starting point rather than from scratch is a big difference maker. Work through and write down the big idea of the biblical passage.Write down the name of the sermon series your sermon is a part of.So one month to a year before you preach, you’ll want to focus on these three big things: I emphasize "probably" because things happen and sometimes God will lead you in a different direction as a new sermon series approaches. Strategizing will allow you to have a big picture of what your preaching will probably look like for the month, the quarter, six months, or a year. Strategizing what you’re going to preach is one of the most transformative things you can do for your preaching. Instead of waking up on Monday trying to figure out what you’re going to preach on Sunday, plan your sermons out at least a month in advance (or more if possible). One of the most helpful things you can do as a preacher is to get ahead in your sermon preparation. Let's dig in! How to Write a Sermon Strategy If you follow this process, you'll come out with a biblical and memorable message from God's word. Work through our process and then make it your own as you write more and more sermons. In this post, we’re going to break down the following steps for how to write a sermon:įor your church service, use these basic steps to writing a sermon as checkpoints for you in your sermon preparation or entire sermon series planning. Over time, you'll naturally iterate that process to fit your personality and way of thinking.īelow is a simple step-by-step process we use to teach pastors and budding preachers how to prepare a sermon. So, it’s a good idea to see how to write a sermon and a sermon outline and practice that process several times. Knowing how to write a powerful sermon is just as important as knowing how to preach it effectively. But if you’re green behind the ears (new to preaching), you may be asking "where do pastors get their sermons and topic ideas from week after week so they can develop a sermon that resonates with their congregants?" If you’re a seasoned pastor, you probably have your own approach and process. Mini motorways online1/14/2024 ![]() Highways work well in many cases but the loss of tiles can kill you in the late game when new things appear in impossibly far places. This maximizes where houses appearĥ-Most games where I am over 1300 have been avoiding using highways and red lights except to get over rivers or to connect things that are across the mapĦ-Seen most success with roundabouts but dont overload them or use them unless you can’t avoid colors mergingħ-cut diagonal instead of corners and you’ll save a tileĨ-use extra roads as placeholders like an O-shape around an intersection until you can get a roundabout or to block a building or house from appearingĩ-stoplights work well when 2 colors must cross paths but the more crowded it gets the more they just cause issuesġ0-in general, the more tiles you have to plan ahead the better. Better to make them go around than to lose!ģ-Grid systems work well but the center of your city is where you have to be careful about future congestion.Ĥ- leave 2 spaces between roadways, one space open from buildings and entrances. ![]() I’ve always used ALL houses and have over 1300 on every map…ġ-Try to keep colors seperate and prevent them from sharing roads if possible.Ģ-When you are in the later stages of the game and a color is in trouble, its almost always 2 or more colors all using one intersection- see if you can delete a single connection to reroute safer colors a different way-they will choose the fastest route even if it kills you. It has been quite a while since a puzzle game so immediately conveyed its appeal to me and while there are certainly some small things I’d improve, it won’t stop me from continuing to play this for a very long time.I disagree with #1. And when it doesn’t, you simply pick that piece back up and try something else. Experimentation with how best to use each element is fun and satisfying when something clicks. Mini Motorways is simple and extremely addictive. Loading is quick, and everything is satisfyingly smooth. Like most games with their origins on Apple Arcade, that transition to Switch seems to have been effortless. Perfect for when a run keeps you up later than it should. It also features a night mode which trades in the bright white background for a darker one. It has some of the best colorblind options I’ve seen in a while, allowing me to personally choose each color available for use as buildings and destinations. Mini Motorways’ interface is clean and extremely accessible. As is, maps rarely stand out and all tend to blend together. That being said, a bit more tangible variety in scenarios would certainly be a bonus. Online leaderboards and challenges based around hitting a certain score add some replay value to stages, and while each one isn’t horribly different, there are plenty of stages to play through. If the timer expires without enough cars making it, it’s game over. If enough cars take too long to get to their destination a timer will appear over that building. This is a high score game, so your goal is not to build the perfect city, but rather to survive for as long as possible. The two obviously serve similar purposes, but it is hard to get a handle on what the ideal use case is for each one. They’re all simple to implement and easy to use, though I still struggle to know when the best time is to use a roundabout versus a traffic light at an intersection. These items, along with the roads themselves, are essentially the extent of the mechanics in Mini Motorways. These pieces include roundabouts and traffic lights to help manage intersections, highways to help alleviate traffic traveling from one end of your city to another, bridges to cross bodies of water, and tunnels to pass through mountains. Roads will intersect, combine, and quickly fill with traffic.Īt the end of each week you’re given more road tiles and a choice between two unique building pieces. ![]() You only have a certain number of road tiles for every in-game week, so giving every color its own unique roads isn’t an option. Slowly more houses will appear, they’ll all be the same color at the first, but eventually new house and destination colors will also begin appearing. Once you do, cars will begin traveling back and forth between the house and the destination. Using either the left analogue stick or the touch screen you’ll need to draw a road to connect the two. Both are the same color, indicating that the occupants of this house will want to travel to that destination. However, the myriad of ways in which these mechanics can be utilized to improve the traffic flow of your city will take much longer to explore.Įach level, based loosely on the geography of a real world city, starts with one house, and one destination. It takes only a minute or two to understand the vast majority of its mechanics. Mini Motorways is a high-score based puzzle game about managing traffic in a growing city.

He later tried to introduce concepts like Keedoozle and Foodelectric, fully automated grocery stores, didn’t take off. But he wasn’t done redesigning the grocery business. As a result, he lost control of it early in the 1920s. Though his model quickly took off, he wasn’t at the helm for very long. According to Piggly Wiggly, not long after he franchised the Piggly Wiggly idea Saunders started issuing public stock in the company. The year after the first store opened, Saunders secured his concept with a series of patents belonging to his Piggly Wiggly Corporation. “One story says that, while riding a train, he looked out his window and saw several little pigs struggling to get under a fence, which prompted him to think of the rhyme.” Another option is branding, Piggly Wiggly writes: “Someone once asked him why he had chosen such an unusual name for his organization, to which he replied, ‘So people will ask that very question.’” “He was curiously reluctant to explain its origin,” Piggly Wiggly’s corporate history reports. “One day Memphis shall be proud of Piggly Wiggly… And it shall be said by all men… That the Piggly Wigglies shall multiply and replenish the earth with more and cleaner things to eat,” Saunders said a few months after the store’s opening, according to Freeman.Īs for the name, nobody knows. By the end of that first year there were nine Piggly Wiggly locations around Memphis. Shoppers on that first day did see some employees stocking shelves, Freeman writes, “but they politely refused to select merchandise for visitors.” Just like today, a shopper picked up a basket (though Piggly Wiggly’s were made of wood, not plastic) and went through the store to purchase everything. Saunders’s model cut costs by cutting out the clerks. Even chain stores used clerks.Īlthough the chain store model helped keep costs down, the University of Michigan Library writes, the “small army of clerks” necessary to fill orders were expensive, the university writes, and at least part of that cost was passed on to the consumer. ![]() Before Piggly Wiggly, groceries were sold at stores where a clerk would assemble your order for you, weighing out dry goods from large barrels. This enthusiastic greeting was necessary because Saunders was trying something completely new. ![]() A brass band serenaded the visitors in the lobby.” “Newspaper reporters posing as contest judges awarded five and ten dollar gold coins to every woman, while the supply lasted. “At the door Saunders shook their hands and gave to their children flowers and balloons,” Freeman writes. Saunders was a bit of an iconoclast. For the store’s opening ceremonies, writes Mike Freeman for the Tennessee Historical Quarterly, Saunders promised to hold a “beauty contest” that he advertised in local newspapers. But its founder Clarence Saunders was clearly onto something-today, self-service grocery stores are the norm. Its founding is one of the stranger stories in the history of retail. Today, the chain has more than 530 stores across 17 states, according to its website. On this day in 1916, the first Piggly Wiggly opened in Memphis, Tennessee. The one question is why their innovator named the first one Piggly Wiggly. Self-serve grocery stores saved shoppers money and made financial sense. ![]() This saves you time and effort when editing a large number of photos, making it a valuable tool for photographers who often work with large volumes of images.

Instead of riding the momentum created by “Charity Case,” Gnarls Barkley opts to slow it down with the amazing Al Green-meets-trip-hop of “Who’s Gonna Save My Soul.” Cee-Lo movingly pleads for someone to help him with his depression where even bad news makes his day.
