Golden halo ice cream12/20/2023 ![]() Meanwhile, ice cream manufacturers told Woolverton his formula, with so much protein in it, was too thick - “too viscous was how they put it,” he said - to safely run through production pipes. “The ice cream came out better, more resilient through the supply chain,” Woolverton said. Turns out, it was worth stepping in the occasional cowpie. “Completely different from a place like UCLA,” Wollverton said with a laugh. “As it sits and goes through truck after truck and different altitudes and all that,” Woolverton said, “sometimes it didn’t hold up well.”Ĭoming up with a longer-lasting formula took Woolverton to Cal Poly San Luis Obispo’s Dairy Innovation Institute. There were also formulation problems to rectify, tweaking the proprietary mixture of no-calorie stevia and erythritol in addition to the usual milk, cream and eggs. Persuading a big grocery chain to take your product “was a totally different world,” he said, “like what do you even say to a store? I didn’t have a background in this.”Īs he landed the new accounts, fresh pressures developed, such as a longer supply and distribution chain. In 2012, Halo Top carved out shelf space in Sprouts, Erewhon and Whole Foods in a cold-call process Woolverton found nerve-racking in spite of his experience as a litigator. ![]() It was a risk.”Ī lawsuit forced a name change from the original Eden Creamery to Halo Top, ultimately leading to a better-looking brand, Woolverton said. “I had a good $150,000 in credit cards just to rack up. “It took me a year to figure out how to really make ice cream,” Woolverton said. His work there hadn’t turned into one of the John Grisham novels he had so often enjoyed and that had inspired his legal career. ![]() Woolverton said he was more than ready for a change. Woolverton was already dragging around $350,000 in law school loans when he decided to fund his business using the good credit he built during four years at the law firm Latham & Watkins. It took me a year to figure out how to really make ice cream.Īlthough Woolverton’s first ice cream attempt convinced him that others might buy it, there was a huge financial hurdle. “People said you got mental clarity if you did it,” the UCLA and Columbia Law School graduate said. The idea for Halo Top came out of Woolverton’s experiments with reducing his intake of refined sugar and carbohydrates. In response, Halo Top issued a statement saying only that it had previously received buyout offers and rejected them all. ![]() Reuters reported last month that Halo Top was exploring a sale of the company, citing anonymous sources. That kind of track record draws attention. “It’s crazy that someone can just come into an established industry and do this.” It’s a remarkable story,” said John Crawford, vice president of the western dairy region for Chicago-based IRI. “It didn’t happen just once it’s sustained. Still, experts consider the conquest a major achievement for a small company. industry with 2016 sales of $6.6 billion, according to Nielsen.

Energy bits amaon12/20/2023 ![]() ![]() Now the AWS Center for Quantum Computing has released a theoretical blueprint for a fault-tolerant quantum computer that intrinsically suppresses a major source of errors. However, such strategies often demand high overheads in terms of hardware - for example, they may require more than 1,000 redundant “physical” qubits for every useful “logical” qubit.Īnother strategy involves designing quantum computers that are inherently stable against error. Scientists can compensate for these high error rates using redundant qubits. “If you look at the error rate gap in terms of where the hardware is now and where it needs to be to handle large-scale problems with known societal and commercial benefit, there's about a nine orders of magnitude gap,” says Oskar Painter, head of Amazon Web Services (AWS)'s quantum hardware program and an experimental physicist at the California Institute of Technology. In theory, a quantum computer with 300 qubits could perform more calculations in an instant than there are atoms in the visible universe.Ī critical drawback of current quantum computers is how their inner workings are prone to errors. If two qubits are quantum-mechanically linked, or entangled, they can help perform 2^2 or four calculations simultaneously three qubits, 2^3 or eight calculations and so on. This essentially lets each qubit perform two calculations simultaneously. ![]() Now Amazon has unveiled a new theoretical blueprint for a quantum computer based on combining hardware versions of lots of Schrödinger’s cats.Ĭlassical computers switch transistors either on or off to symbolize data as ones or zeroes, while quantum computers use quantum bits-qubits-that, because of the surreal nature of quantum physics, can exist in a state of superposition where they are both 1 and 0 at the same time. Schrödinger’s cat is a thought experiment in which a quantum event suspends a cat in a box in a nebulous state between life and death: the cat only definitely becomes alive or dead when someone looks in the box. ![]()

Keep the comments civil and the content legal, Links to illegally hosted content will be removed. ![]() Like solving a Rubix Cube, pen spinning, or how to roll a quarter through your fingers. There’s hip hop, salsa, and jive, each bringing out a different move allowing the dancer to set the stage on fire.Learn all sorts of things that make you stand out in a way that makes people go "that's cool but why do you know that?" We're why! This is a place like a how to guide to teach or learn how to do everyday cool things. That’s not all! You have many more dance moves to try out from. Lower your arms and stand on your left toe shifting the weight to the right leg. Lower your right leg while sliding your left leg backwards and leaning forwards. Lift and bend your arms with your elbows jutting to the sides, parallel to the ground. Bend and lift your right leg forming a right angle with the floor. To perform: Start with your arms relaxed by your side and your feet together. Repeat the steps starting with the left foot. Which means you step, get feet together and again step to seem like gliding on the dance floor. Take a step to the right with your right leg and quickly bring your left leg close to your right with a gliding motion. To perform: Start with your feet together and the legs bent at the knees. It can be performed solo or with a partner. Last but not the least, don’t forget to try out the different styles of split jumping.Ī pattern formed by gliding to either sides, which is what gives its name chasse, which means to slide. Keep your toes pointed and your knees straight. ![]() Once in the air, pop your legs out to the sides so that your legs are parallel to the ground and your shoulder. Using your hands thrust yourself upwards, jump straight pushing yourself higher off the floor. Get in to the crouching position on your toes and place your hands on the floor. To perform: Begin with your feet together and your hands to your sides. Split leap: Flexibility and strength are the required elements to perform this dance move. This will have you spinning on your lower back. Tuck your legs into your chest with your arms resting on your thighs so that, you curl up into a ball.

Switch hands while the left leg swings around in front of the right leg. Swing the right leg in front of the right hand so that you are in the crab position. Bring your left leg closer to the right leg such that it crosses at the knee. Lift your left hand thus shifting your weight to the right hand and foot. To perform: You start this move in a push-up position and bring your right leg forward and extend it in front of the left leg. It is this move that helps set the momentum for other complex dance moves. The breaker has to maintain continuous ground contact for this move which means one or the other hand has to be touching the ground at all times. The most important part of b-boying, the 6-step forms the backbone of this style of dancing. Once you master the basic move, you can improvise and create a style that is uniquely you. Return to initial position and repeat the movements with the other foot. Simultaneously, swing your arms open to form an inclined plane. Then, pivot on your left foot and shift your weight on to the right foot. To perform: Start with your feet together while your arms are crossed over your chest. ![]()

Command and conquer tiberium wars origins12/19/2023 ![]() ![]() Edit your launch codes by deleting the "-win" and matching the resolution to what you set in game.Old thread, but hope it helps. *On the main menu go to settings and change the resolution there to whichever option you like. to do this input, "-win xres 1366 yres 768" then mess with the DPI in the. *For Kane's Wrath everything is the same except when you are entering the Launch options on steam you will need to start it out in windowed mode at first. Launch the game through steam and it should work! *Run the program as administrator, apply and ok. *Check the box "Override high DPI scaling behavior" Make sure Scaling is preformed by "Application" *Now exit steam and find where you saved the game, the. *Type in: "xres 1366 yres 768" without the quotations.

SO, first explain how to do Tiberium Wars then I will add in how I did Kane's Wrath, as it included an extra step (for some reason it has to be set to windowed mode first) A few posts I found helped but didn't actually fix the issue. Ok so I'm kinda late to the party here but I tried every solution on every thread I could find to play Tiberium Wars and Kane's Wrath on Windows 10, Steam version of course. If you need any other technical help, ask protoman1008, he knows computer stuff than I do. You just have to save your game often and not to look at other browsers. Its an old game so the direct x 9.0 for some reason acts up for Windows 10 computer. Find the number "X x Y" and repeat step 2 all the way through step 5 with the new resolution numbers.Īlso, the game tends to crash when you look at other window browsers or alt+tab. To find it, go to options then settings then resolution. If you prefer full screen (like I do), you'll have to find the maximum resolution that the game will allow you to go up to. it will be a small window screen but I'm sure it will run it. This will make the game run into windows mode, instead of full screen. This will make the game run at a fixed resolution.īonus: If step 4 doesn't work, type "-win". Type "-xres 1280 -yres720" without the quotations of course. (I listed other games cause it works the same way for all of them when I couldn't run them)ģ.Under General Tab, select set Lauch optionsĤ.

Tasty lunch ideas12/19/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() Ready to get cooking? Here are 35 of our favorite lunch ideas for weight loss that you can incorporate into your meal prep routine ASAP. For example, you could prep your lunch as soon as you get home instead of waiting for later when you’d rather be relaxing, she suggests. ![]() Harbstreet adds that you can try “habit stacking” which includes attaching meal prep to a habit you already have. “To help you stay on track, choose meals that are easy to prepare and set aside a time or day to prep your meals,” she says. And if you’re struggling with planning lunches that help you reach your goals, Mathis encourages setting realistic and sustainable goals for yourself. One of her favorite ingredients to incorporate into meals is avocados, which have heart-healthy fats and fiber to keep you satisfied. Your plate should include fiber, fat, and protein to promote the feeling of fullness and manage appetite. Additionally, choose foods that are nutrient-dense and support your health goals, Mathis says. Without that, you won’t enjoy or look forward to your meals and you’re more likely to snack throughout the day. The most important thing to keep in mind when planning your lunches for the week is choosing foods that taste good to you, make you feel good, and keep you satisfied, says Andrea Mathis, M.A., R.D.N., L.D.N., author of The Complete Book of Smoothies. “Skipping a mid-day meal eliminates a key opportunity to get essential nutrition or food groups that may not show up in other meals or snacks.” How to build a healthy lunch for weight loss “It’s unfair to expect our body or brain to perform at their best if we aren’t providing the fuel they need through food,” says Cara Harbstreet, M.S., R.D., L.D., owner of Street Smart Nutrition. But if your goal is losing weight, planning healthy lunch ideas for weight loss to have at the ready makes the biggest difference in supporting your goals.Īnd skipping out on lunch is never an option. Serve with steamed or roasted veggies (or a fresh salad) on the side. Drizzle 1 tsp honey and add 1 tsp crushed walnuts on top. You’re hungry, and it’s just so convenient to head to the office cafeteria for whatever they have to offer. Brie and Pear (with a drizzle of honey and crushed walnuts): Toast two slices of sprouted wheat bread, top with brie or your child’s favorite mild cheese + thin pear slices. When it’s midday and you realize your stomach is already growling, the last thing you want to do is find a place to get a healthful meal. ![]()

Aspect ratio of image online12/19/2023 ![]() ![]() 4:3 aspect ratio was the preferred medium format cameras of standard definition televisions for decades. Previously, this was the standard screen ratio for film cameras, but it dimmed in popularity with the advent of widescreen formats. 4:3 Aspect RatioĪnother ratio of note is 4:3. The 3:2 aspect ratio also relates to the rule of thirds, which is a widely-used composition technique. Many famous artists throughout history, from Leonardo Da Vinci to Michelangelo, have used the golden ratio in their works. Why is the 3:2 aspect ratio so popular? The 3:2 aspect ratio best embodies the golden ratio, which is based on the Fibonacci sequence. Images with this ratio include 4×6 photographs or 1020 x 720 images. In fact, many photographs are taken with popular camera brands in a 3:2 aspect ratio today. This ratio has its roots in 35mm film photography. You’ll often encounter them on social media. Your movies or home movie theaters usually have a ratio of 2.35:1 (a widescreen Cinemascope format,) which helps you get truly immersed in the movie you’re watching. Most new TV models have a ratio of 16:9 (widescreen format, twice as long as the height,) which better showcases the effect of HD technology at its best. For example:Ī vintage TV or computer display has an almost 1:1 square ratio (1.33:11 actually,) which means that what you see in the screen is smaller than what the original aspect ratio, or the edges have been cut off so the image can fit the screen. You’ll be glad to know that you can find several examples of these rations in photography, films and in many of the objects around you. But there are seven common aspect ratios every photographer should know. Technically-speaking there is an unlimited number of aspect ratios. What is the ratio for each? Each image is a rectangle with a 2:1 ratio–even though the width and height are different for each. The images are different sizes, but they have same aspect ratio.Ĭonsider another example. Also, an image that is 500 x 500 pixels has the same 1:1 ratio. As an example, a square format image that is 1,000 x 1000 pixels would have a different aspect ratio of 1:1. It is important to know that an image ratio is not the actual size, in pixels or inches, of the image. So, an image that is three times as wide as it is tall will have a 3:1 ratio. And the width is always the first number, followed by the height. ![]() Most often, you’ll see a ratio separated by a colon (:) between the two numbers. It essentially describes the shape of your image. Remember the term ratio from middle school math? You should recall that a ratio represents the relationship between two numbers.Īlso known as aspect definition, this concept is the relationship between the width and height of a photo. What do these numbers mean? And how can they make a difference in your digital photography? Answering these and other key questions will help you improve your composition and make you a much better photographer. Chances are, you’ve seen numbers representing common aspect ratios, including: Aspect ratio a fundamental digital photography concept that can be quite confusing at first.
