A cricket fan for over 30 years, he also recently become T3's cricket editor, writing about how to stream obscure T20 tournaments, and turning out some typically no-nonsense opinions on the world's top teams and players.īefore T3, Duncan was a music and film reviewer, worked for a magazine about gambling that employed a surprisingly large number of convicted criminals, and then a magazine called Bizarre that was essentially like a cross between Reddit and DeviantArt, before the invention of the internet. He also has about 400 vacuum cleaners, and is possibly the UK's leading expert on cordless vacuum cleaners, despite being decidedly messy. In his long and varied lifestyle-tech career he is one of the few people to have been a fitness editor despite being unfit and a cars editor for not one but two websites, despite being unable to drive. He also covers cycling and ebikes – like over-using italics, this is another passion of his.

Just coming up with a string of 11-letter guesses is difficult enough, never mind getting the correct one. This lets you chase words of up to 11 letters in length – or as few as four – and we can confirm that can be quite hard. Incidentally, if you actively want to play a version of Wordle that really is harder, try the clone Hellowordl. But for now, it’s not, so quit your whining. Of course, the NYT could one day choose to only use words such as SQUAB, OUIJA, PLOOV and COVFEFE, and deliberately ruin your day. The New York Times has, however, removed a few words from the preset list that it thought might upset people. Some are easy and some are hard, just as life itself is sometimes easy, like Sunday morning, and sometimes hard, like Monday morning. No, the list is hard coded into the app, with words chosen in a set, pseudo-random order by the Wordle machine itself. So perhaps not that hard.įurthermore, close inspection of the code of Wordle reveals that the words are not chosen by the New York Times, or by humans. This was partly due to the appearance of the word CAULK – ironically, a word known by all plumbers and decorators, amateur and professional alike. The perception seemed to be that them east coast snobs was using their $10 words and fancy-pants ways to make the game impossible for folks who hadn‘t done no book learnin’ nor been to Yale. When the New York Times took over publishing Wordle, there was a certain amount of controversy among certain users, who were convinced the upscale news site had made the game harder.

Paraffin wax candles toxic11/24/2023 ![]() ![]() "You don't need to use these powerful cleaners." "You can wipe down your counter with a little soap and water," he says. People with respiratory problems such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease should make an extra effort to cut down on indoor air pollution, says Rosenstreich. "You need ventilation, just like you do with candles." : Air purifier buying guide "People have these fake fireplaces that are unventilated and the pollution just sits in the room," says Thurston. "Just because it's on the supermarket shelves doesn't mean it's safe."Ĭentral heating and cooling systems, as well as gas fireplaces, can generate indoor air pollution too. "We live in a highly chemically infused environment where people use tons of products," he adds. ![]() Cleaning products, hair sprays, and mousses all contribute to indoor air pollution. "A lot of household products give off volatile organic compounds, or VOCs," says David Rosenstreich, M.D., the director of the division of allergy and immunology at New York's Montefiore Medical Center. 10 tips to allergy-proof your home for fallĬandles are only one potential source of indoor air pollution."And when you light any kind of candle, you might turn on the exhaust fan even if it ruins the mood, it vents out the fumes. "You ought to try to minimize your exposure to paraffin wax candles," says Thurston. While you aren't putting your life on the line by lighting a candle, he says you should exercise at least some caution. "It's one of the big sources of sulfur in the indoor environment, so using a lighter would probably be cleaner." : Why belly fat is bad for your lungs "Just lighting a match to start a candle creates sulfur pollution in the air," he adds. Thurston urges people to be prudent about lighting any kind of candle - whether it's paraffin, beeswax, or soybean - in an enclosed space. "I think there's some controversy out there as to which candles are better than others," says George Thurston, Ph.D., an associate professor of environmental medicine at the New York University School of Medicine. ![]() However, whether some candles are safer than others is still debatable, according to one expert. However, frequently lighting many candles in an unventilated space could lead to problems, and may aggravate asthma, cause allergy-like symptoms, or irritate the respiratory tract. The researchers say that lighting a paraffin candle once in a while is unlikely to pose a health threat. Candles made of beeswax or soybean tend to make mention of that ingredient on their label paraffin candles may not. ![]() Soybean candles did not, according to the study, which was presented this week at the American Chemical Society meeting in Washington, D.C. They found that paraffin-based candles - the most popular kind - emitted toxic chemicals like toluene and benzene. They let candles from different manufacturers burn for up to six hours in a small box (8 inches x 8 inches x 26 inches), and then collected and analyzed substances released into the air. Researchers at South Carolina State University studied petroleum-based and vegetable-source candles to determine their emissions. ![]() Bubble wrap for shipping11/24/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() Can I schedule a pick-up with The UPS Store?

Whatever the case, slow motion during the last play is expected. This can actually be a two-fer, as there have been incidents where the underdog team has scored the tying point needed to take it to overtime in the last play as well. A sudden-death overtime, in which any play that results in a score is by definition the last play.Every boxing match ends with a knockout, usually after the scrappy underdog has taken a beating that would certainly put him behind on points, and been knocked to the mat the maximum number of times possible without losing by TKO.Every poker game comes down to a high-ranking hand being beaten by an even higher-ranking hand.Every bowling game comes down to either rolling a strike or making an extremely tough split to pick up a spare.Or sometimes a last-minute penalty, or a penalty shootout. Every association football match ends with a spectacular last-minute goal, usually from a free kick.Every golf tournament comes down to making a long putt, or to getting out from a trap or some other nasty place.Every race ends with a (sometimes literal) photo finish.Alternately, having to dunk on The Rival / the nastiest player from the other team.Every basketball game ends with a desperate buzzer-beater (a shot released before the game timer ends but doesn't go in the basket until after it ends considered legal in basketball).Every ice hockey game ends with The Hero getting a breakaway and going one-on-one against the goalie-or, of course, a shootout, which is a set of forced one-player-versus-goalie sequences.note Granted, if the home team is leading after the top of he ninth, the game ends right then and they win. And the home team's always trailing in the bottom of the ninth. Every baseball game ends with either (a.) a dramatic walk-off home run, (b.) a clutch strikeout or incredible defensive play while the tying and/or winning runs are on base, or (c.) a super-close play at home plate. ![]() The likely reason for this is not because it isn't dramatic, note any sports fan can tell you otherwise, but because it would put the game in the hands of the Kicker note more precisely, the hands of the Long Snapper and Holder and the legs of the Kicker, who isn't usually the Protagonist. Plus, the score usually puts one team up by 4-6 points, so there's no way to hope for a last-second winning field goal (worth only three points). Or, if the protagonist team is in the lead (which almost never happens because people like comeback stories), a goal-line stand. Every American football game ends with either a Hail Mary pass, or some bizarre, convoluted offensive play that the team thought of back in practice.Usually, the game in which this occurs is the grand finale the championship or playoff game pitting the ragtag underdogs against the seemingly unbeatable Opposing Sports Team. Almost invariably, sports games in fiction are extremely close-scored, go down to the wire, and are decided by a crucial, unbelievable, Million to One Chance play at the last second. ![]() Trashme11/24/2023 ![]() ![]() Mac FoneLab iPhone Data Recovery il vous permet également de mettre à niveau ou de rétrograder la version dios. Take a look at TrashMe or AppCleaner - both of these tools attempt to automate the search and removal of support files that go along with applications. In the case of TrashMe, it also helps you uninstall widgets and System Configuration plugins, which is handy. Some software integrates so deeply (MacFuSE or Growl for example) in to the system that the only way to uninstall it via a script. In these cases there is usually an uninstall script in the. dmg file that you downloaded to install the software or one provided by the developer on their website. There is no default "uninstaller" largely for the same reason that there is no default "installer". Most programs are installed simply by moving them to the location from which you want them to run, which is most often your applications folder, but there no reason why (and I see this a LOT) you cannot simply run the program from your downloads folder without ever moving them - this is very common where the. app file is downloaded directly without being inside a. dmg disk image file which then often prompts you to drag the icon to your applications folder.Īs Ian C's answer, such apps may leave traces of themselves in library folders etc when they are run, but theses are not considered to be particularly important and safe to leave, and often it's beneficial (either to the user or to the vendor) as it allows for such things as re-installing and finding all your old settings are back as normal, or not allowing re-installing as it finds an old expired trial license etc. The efficacy of this sort of thing is of varying importance depending who you ask. You do sometimes get programs which use a specific installer, these are often doing things that require more complex procedures to allow them to work, such as installing a kernel module etc, and typically if it comes with an installer, there should be an uninstaller with it, but these install mechanisms often differ from app to app and your results may vary. ![]() Rocket homes sign up11/23/2023 ![]() This review is focused on Zillow as an MLS aggregator, separate from the referral fee network (Zillow Premier Broker) and (Zillow Instant Offers). Rocket Homes must be well aware of these issues but continues to operate on pay-to-play methodology in order to collect fees that needlessly make home buying and selling more expensive. This model incorporates in itself everything real estate process shouldn’t be. There are exactly zero benefits to consumers when using this referral fee network - the only effects consumers gain with Rocket Homes are hidden fees, privacy concerns and blind matches with agents willing to part with 25%-40% of their commission. Rocket Homes receives the lowest score because it simply sells user information to third parties without any clear benefit to anyone other than itself. As a licensed real estate agent that doesn’t perform any real estate services or takes any responsibility for the transaction, it is not entirely clear how Rocket Homes works under the Business and Professions Code and RESPA.Ĭlearly, real estate agents only sign-up with Rocket Homes because the price of the referral fee can be easily incorporated into their client’s agreement with excessive commissions. ![]() Rocket Homes plays hidden referral fees down to consumers, but it rigidly locks every participating real estate agent to the back-end of every contract. “we will share your personal information (such as your name, address, telephone number and e-mail) to allow third parties to contact you (even if you are previously listed on any state, federal or corporate do-not-call list) regarding their products or services that include mortgage, moving companies, telephone service providers, internet service providers, cable and satellite television service providers, and real estate agents.” Rocket Homes suffers from an incredibly poor Privacy Policy. Instead, Quicken Loans is using Rocket Homes’s license as a loophole to bypass RESPA provisions that were designed to protect consumers from illegal kickbacks between real estate agents and mortgage companies. Quicken Loans is unable to collect referral fees from real estate agents directly due to rigid RESPA regulations. ![]() Rocket Homes is an affiliated brokerage of Quicken Loans. The main qualification for real estate agents who participate with Rocket Homes is their willingness to pay a referral fee. “it does not guarantee or warrant the products or services of other product or service providers to whom it may refer you, including, but not limited to, real estate brokers/agents, lenders and escrow/settlement companies.” Rocket Homes Terms of Service directly states that Rocket Homes further claims to match consumers with “top-rated professionals,” but there is absolutely no third-party evidence for this. ![]() Rocket Homes audits all transactions because it needs to find out how much money real estate agents receive in commissions, inevitably collecting private details of consumer’s agreement for home purchase or sale. More importantly, Rocket Homes is a real estate agent that “does not engage in actual real estate broker services.” Rocket Homes systematically applies pay-to-play bias towards all matching results, meaning, only real estate agents that have agreed to pay a referral fee are matched with consumers. This fee makes it hardly a free service for anyone since referral fees are inevitably passed down to consumers. Rocket Homes is a Michigan real estate broker that collects an undisclosed referral fee (estimated at 25%-40% of agent’s commission) from all real estate agents that participate. ![]() Lego star wars castaways windows11/23/2023 ![]() ![]() Challenge parents, siblings, and friends in the Hippodrome, or join forces to complete quests to earn rewards.

Sonic youth superstar movie11/23/2023 ![]() ![]() This tape was yet again transferred to a final 1" video tape master, which was finally replicated to VHS. From there it was edited down on a tape-to-tape edit system, yeilding another generation loss. The Super-8 sound film was transferred to then then industry standard of 3 1/4" inch pnuematic tape. VHS were bulky, and did not have the instant marketability (and low price) of DVD's, nor did they have the bonus features which are now considered commonplace on DVD.Īlthough it was shot on film, the original release was produced from a several generation loss of video tape. Needless to say only about 400 copies were originally sold, at least according to the "creative accounting" of the notoriously shifty SST Records. We Got Power Films eventually made the film available on VHS for the more reasonable price of $22.50. Studio movies available on VHS at the time were retailing at an average of $80.00 per title. The original version of the film was released in 1986 on VHS by SST for the exhorborant price of $47.00, a fact the filmmakers were never pleased with.
