![]() ![]() Others might worry that they’ll be judged or looked down upon for dining alone, as if it’s a sign of being undesirable or unpopular.Are they having a better time than you are? I’m not so sure of that. Some might feel awkward about being surrounded by couples and groups who are drinking, sharing bites, and chatting happily.It features sustainable fish, and it’s a small plate that works well at dinner for one.įirst, let’s review a few reasons why people might feel wary about eating solo in a high-end establishment. Seviche’s trademark dish, ahi tuna seviche, is a must-try. Let’s talk about solo dining today, and how we can make it easy.Ī fillet of Idaho Snake River farm-raised Riverence trout made a delicious entree at the elegant farm-to-table restaurant Barn 8 in Goshen, Kentucky. ![]() That might have been me, before I learned better. Others, though, finally acknowledged that this would feel uncomfortable and they’d prefer not to do it. Yeah, but that’s not what I asked, folks! A few said that, like me, they’d gladly enjoy solitude and a good book at a table. ![]() Quite a few friends repeated their preference for bar seating. Now a bit of aversion started to show up. So I asked the question again, this time specifically asking how people felt about dining alone at a table in an upscale restaurant, perhaps with a sommelier and maitre-d’. That’s the exact opposite of what I wanted to do. People spoke of the joy of sitting down at a restaurant bar and enjoying a sociable evening with the bartender and new friends. Mostly, though, I was getting answers to a question I didn’t ask. All of a sudden, Gen Z babies born at the dawn of the new millennium are old enough to go out to dine, pull up to the bar, and order dinner and a cocktail, a beer, or a glass of wine. ![]() This seems particularly true of younger friends, who find the very idea of feeling shy about dining alone a bit laughable. Most feel - as I do - that one has a complete right to dine alone, entitled to treatment just as welcoming as anyone else. Only a handful of friends remain averse to the very idea. What did I learn? To some extent, it appears that there’s been a generational change. Recently, sparked by a random recollection, I wondered if many food-loving types are still perturbed by the idea of dining out alone, so I put out a call for opinions on social media. After a day of constant interaction with people, though, I went into full introvert mode and really didn’t want to chat with the bartender or the guy on the next stool. It was fun, stressful at times, and at the end of just about every day filled with meeting, chatting with, and interviewing grassroots heroes, I was ready for some quiet time alone… and a good dinner with only my thoughts or a good book for company.īack in those days - we’re talking the ‘90s here - a lot of my friends thought I was brave, or maybe a bit addled, to do this thing, especially since I always asked for a table for one and declined any suggestion that I eat at the bar. It was a fascinating job that took me all around the country, visiting and reporting on creative grassroots organizations in all 50 states. Years ago, after I left the newly corporate Courier-Journal, I went to work for a national nonprofit based in New York City. ![]()

Define exposition in literature5/7/2023 ![]() ![]() The rising action is a series of events that ratchets up the tension until a pivotal moment. ![]() Rising action starts right after the exposition when we learn about the story’s character and setting. We won’t bother with all the other phases of the structure. German novelist Gustav Freytag developed the story pyramid in the mid-nineteenth century. The term rising action originated from Freytag’s story pyramid. Let’s look at how this technique plays out in different plot structures. That’s an example of how rising action works in a fictional story. So, the Prince banishes Romeo from fair Verona.Īnd we have reached our point of no return! Raging, Romeo forgets his newly formed family bond and kills Tybalt.ĭid I mention that Mercutio was kin to the Prince of Verona? Oh well, he was, and in this story, the Prince acts as the town’s mayor. Romeo tries to break up the fight, but Tybalt kills Mercutio. Romeo’s friend Mercutio steps in and duels Tybalt. ![]() Romeo, having just married a Capulet, now considers Tybalt family and refuses the challenge. He finds Romeo and challenges him to a duel. Tybalt is enraged that Romeo crashed the Capulet ball. Romeo and Juliet consummate their marriage. He finds Juliet and the two confess their undying love for each other.įriar Tuck, hoping to end the feud between their families, performs Romeo and Juliet’s wedding. So, as any teenage boy would, he commits criminal trespassing. The protagonist begins a search to fulfill their want:Īfter a chance encounter, Romeo discovers that he cannot live without this girl he just met. Remember Tybalt he’ll become important later. This feud doesn’t matter much to Romeo, but a Capulet, Tybalt, sees Romeo at the ball and is enraged. Romeo’s family, the Montagues, are at war with Juliet’s Capulets. However, he meets Juliet and falls in love with her instead. ![]() He agrees to attend a Capulet ball with Mercutio and Benvolio in hopes of seeing Rosalin. Romeo is depressed over his love for a Capulet girl, Rosalin. Let’s see how this pattern plays out in Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet: We talked about how rising action begins with a character discovering they want something and ends in a climax or point of no return. Examples of Rising Action: Literary Example of Rising Action in Romeo and Juliet: This gradual increase of tension and stakes is what keeps a reader engaged. This climax usually marks the end of rising action and the start of a story’s final act. This pattern of rising tension will continue until the character hits a point of no return- a climax. And, the tension of the story will gradually rise as the stakes increase. Your character will get in over their head. They will plunge deeper into their search with each move, and things will become more complicated than they realize. Along the way, they will make decisions and take action. So, the protagonist will set off to try and find that thing they want. How to keep readers engagedĪ character will start with a problem usually, they will want something. In a narrative, there should be a clear pattern of cause and effect. But, a plot isn’t just a retelling of events. In a story, you need things to happen to keep the plot moving. The rising action is what keeps readers or viewers engaged in a plot. The tension will build until the story hits a breaking point or the midpoint of the story. All of the character’s actions will raise the stakes of the story. Some of those decisions will work out, while others will blow up in the character’s face. The point is, your character will set off on a journey to find something.Īlong the way, a protagonist will make decisions that they believe will get them closer to their ultimate goal. The character may be on the hunt for purpose or self-respect. What the character is looking for could be physical, like a hidden treasure, or symbolic. The rising action starts when your character sets off to find something. The rising action is where the story truly begins. This event, or events, is a story beat where some force moves the protagonist out of their ordinary world. Rising action starts with a story beat called the inciting event. The author will also tell us about the story’s setting, usually by showing the characters’ ordinary lives. During the exposition, the author introduces our main character(s). Rising action takes place after the exposition or beginning of the story. Each of these events creates tension until we reach a climactic event or point of no return. The rising action is part of a story that builds conflict through decisions made by the protagonist or events that happen to the protagonist. ![]()

Foods rich in chromium5/7/2023 ![]() Studies have linked plant-based diets with reducing the risk of major diseases, including heart disease, diabetes, and certain types of cancer. ![]() The evidence base shows that this way of eating can support excellent health.” She added, “you do not need to take a choline supplement when you switch to totally plant-based nutrition if you eat a balanced and varied diet containing plenty of minimally processed plant foods. Soya products, quinoa, and broccoli are some of the best plant-based sources.” This nutrient is widely distributed in plant foods because it’s present in cell membranes. Heather Russell - a registered dietician working for the organization - said in a statement, “choline requirements and intakes in different dietary groups are poorly defined at present. The Vegan Society agrees with Van de Bor. Foods can be vegan but not provide the necessary nutrients.” ![]() She said, “you absolutely can meet the requirements with a vegan or plant-based diet. Nutritionist Emma Derbyshire said in a BMJ Journal, “if people are eating a plant-based diet, particularly if they are women of childbearing age, they should look at supplements.” But this isn’t the view of everyone.īahee Van de Bor - a spokesperson for the British Dietetic Association - disagrees with Derbyshire. Some nutritionists believe that people following a plant-based diet should consider opting for supplements to boost their intake of choline. Derbyshire believes vegans should take choline supplements. However, research into these areas is limited. One study - conducted back in 1996 - found that choline therapy improved symptoms of mania in bipolar patients.Ĭonsuming adequate amounts of choline could also reduce the risk of breast cancer and the risk of neural tube defects in babies. According to the Journal of Aging Research and Clinical Practice, low choline intake is associated with feelings of sleepiness.Ĭholine could also potentially help to treat people suffering from mental health conditions, including bipolar disorder - but there are limited studies on this topic. It could potentially also help with keeping you feeling alert. Researchers gave participants 1,000 milligrams of the compound a day. One study - conducted at Massachusetts Institue of Technology - revealed that choline supplementation improved short and long-term verbal memory in adults aged 50 to 85. Studies have shown that it can boost brain function and improve memory. Research suggests that consuming enough choline can provide health benefits. Babies aged zero to six months only need 125 milligrams a day, for example. For children and teenagers, the recommended amount varies. Pregnant women should aim to consume around 450 milligrams a day and non-pregnant adult women should look to consume 425 milligrams a day. The institute notes that breastfeeding women and adult men should consume the most, at 450 milligrams a day. However, the Institute of Medicine has set a guide. There isn’t a recommended daily intake for the compound, due to a lack of available evidence. It’s involved in memory, muscle movement, regulating heartbeat and other basic functions.”Īlthough deemed an essential nutrient, research into choline seems to be fairly limited. Healthline says, “ is required to make acetylcholine, an important neurotransmitter. ![]() ![]() It’s also important for liver function, metabolism, and maintaining a healthy nervous system. It’s similar to the vitamin B complex, but it’s technically a water-soluble compound.Ĭholine helps with brain development. According to Healthline, it’s neither a vitamin nor a mineral. Our livers make small amounts of choline, but predominantly, we get it from our diet. Should people who follow a plant-based diet be concerned about getting enough? What even is choline? And what foods is it in? To answer all of your burning questions, we’ve put together a comprehensive guide. Can you get enough choline on a vegan diet? Choline was discovered relatively recently it was acknowledged as a required nutrient in 1998 by the Institute of Medicine. ![]()

Brave new world movie5/7/2023 ![]() And am committed to continuing to do so, for as long as I live. In short, as much as is possible in our overwhelmingly materialist and advertisement dominated American society, I avoid all forms of advertising. From that time on, I have relied on sources via non-mobile internet, where I can still, thankfully, control almost all intrusion of advertising. In 2006 that morphed into an abandonment of all TV entirely, including public broadcast networks, and all news programming. Personally, I abandoned all network broadcast, in fact any TV broadcast that included commercials, in the early to mid 1990's. There's something important to be learned from this. As a result, we are treated to some of the most common evening broadcast commercials at that time, which, at the time of this writing, was 23 years ago. However, what is very interesting about this recording is that it is taken straight off NBC network prime-time broadcast, including the commercial breaks. ![]() Overall, this film is a rather poorly directed, somewhat botched version of Huxley's cautionary tale. From the Reagan era on, materialism has been our raison d'etre in the West, and we are living the dubious and highly destructive results today. Huxley's vision was prescient in this respect, in that we experienced a temporary wholesale return to the empty promises of materialism post WW2 in the 1950's, and then re-committed to it entirely in 1980. Although Huxley was definitely concerned with the dangers and seductions of authoritarianism, eugenics (which was gaining in popularity at that time), and the imposition of social controls, he was also concerned with the loss of the indefinable something we call "the human soul" through the wholesale adoption of a materialist philosophy and an approach to life which embraced the pursuit of self-centeredness at the expense of anything and everything else. In 1931, the extremes of the so-called "Red Scare" of the Truman administration, administered predominantly by Roy Cohn and Senator McCarthy, had not yet occurred in the United States, and people generally weren't experiencing a propaganda-generated overwhelming fear of the idea of sharing wealth as the basis of an economy (socialism). That the novel spoke to the dangers of authoritarian collectivism (Communism) was predominantly a projection of the times in the 60's. By the 1960's, the book was considered a classic - a cautionary tale of the consequences of a society based on the pursuit of materialism. His prescient vision of a future society was extrapolated at the time from the excesses of the 1920's ("Roaring Twenties), at the dawning of the Great Depression. ![]() ![]() Aldous Huxley wrote his socially dystopian novel "Brave New World," in 1931. ![]()

2ds and eon timer5/7/2023 ![]() I recommend doing a countdown in your head along with whatever cue you use (visual or auditory) because there are occasional skipped beats to the auditory countdown (the skipping may be due to how your computer runs or how many programs are running at the same time) and an in-your-head countdown helps you stay focused even when you do the visual countdown.Įxcellent program. I've been using it with ten beeps at 1000 frequency, but I've also used it with the visual cue only, for when I'm listening to music at the same time, because as anyone who does RNG knows, it can be a little boring when you're waiting for the timers to run down, especially if you happen to have long timers, or even if you happen to do a lot of RNG in an afternoon. It's also very simple and easy to use as a non-C-gear timer as well. I caught a pokemon in two tries using C-gear mode. EonTimer has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. It solved issues with severely swinging delays on Gen 4 RNG and it is super efficient with C-gear seeds on Gen 5. EonTimer is a C++ library typically used in Gaming, Video Game applications. A port of the Pokmon RNG Timer originally written by ToastPlusOne. It has everything you need to RNG on Gen 4 and Gen 5. EonTimer is a C++ library typically used in Gaming, Video Game applications. I've been testing this timer and it is just the best timer ever. Where can I find out how to use this stuff? I have a great idea for something to add. ![]() It will in all likelihood be its last update. The efficiency update was a simple fix that I've just taken a long time to do. GUI in Java is incredibly tedious and I just don't want to deal with it unless I have to. It really could use a complete rewrite since it was written when I knew little about programming. The code is messy and it would take a lot of time that I don't really want to put into it to fix. I'm just glad people are getting use out of it!įine. I did not put this update out as an alert because it is relatively minor. This was due to a font-size adjustment in Windows. 32-bit programs work on 64-bit processors, just not as well. Anyway, I don't know how to compile 64-bit Java. Well then you shouldn't have got a Mac (jkjk, well kinda). Why is there only a 32-bit version of ZomgTimer? If it says 圆4, you have a 64-bit machine.īut. If it says x86, you have a 32-bit machine. Here it will give you "x_-based PC." The blanks will either be 86 or 64. When it does, look for "System Type" in the information that appears. Go to Start > Program Files > Accessories > System Tools > System Information Check out my Final Review, 1 week later here. How do I know if my computer is 32-bit or 64-bit? - Note: this is no longer necessary. Eon Pod and Device Review - Juul Compatible EonSmoke - YouTube Review of the Juul compatible pods by EonSmoke and the EonSmoke device. Windows users should use the EonTimer. After unzipping EonTimer-2.0.0.zip, the scripts are located in the bin directory. This means there are now scripts included in the release to start EonTimer. I'll be putting out info to work around any necessary things that I can't include in it. 2.0.0 is now using the application plugin for Gradle to build EonTimer. ZomgTimer is pretty much a finished product. It's the better of the two as it has more options, better UI, slight accuracy improvement and it's more easily upgradeable for me.

Whats the minions names5/7/2023 ![]() ![]() We also don't know what compels them to serve evil people, though Minions implies it's an evolutionary imperative, similar to the parasitism seen in the natural world (but only the cute kind, suitable for a McDonald's toy). Relatedly, the evolutionary function of some Minions having one eye while others have two eyes remains unclear. There are a few things we don't know about Minions that the new movie doesn't clarify: We don't know why they wear goggles, though they've done so for thousands of years (early goggles were fashioned from available flora). Kevin's the leader, Stuart's the musician, and Bob's the kid (he totes around a teddy bear that somehow makes him appear even more adorable - and, in an equally lovable detail, he's heterochromic). The new movie centers on three Minions - Kevin, Stuart, and Bob - who each become more distinct throughout the course of the film (or at least as distinct as gibberish-speaking henchmen can be). Though it's often tough for the layperson to distinguish one Minion from another, they all have unique personalities and names (which their masters quickly learn). They even have a few special abilities, like becoming glow sticks when they're snapped and shaken. Minions have been turned into evil purple versions of themselves, transformed into giants, crushed, tortured, and buried without being worse for wear (this may be the reason they've survived so long). They communicate using a gibberish language that's understandable to them and a few people who have longstanding relationships with them. ![]() They vary in height, but it's safe to say they're between 2 and 3 feet tall (though closer to 2). They're earnestly driven by the desire to serve an evil boss, though they often screw up because they're selfish, easily distracted, and generally inept. Minions are a species of tiny yellow henchmen they look like unusually dressed Mike and Ike candies. Of course, as with all great things in history, the existence of Minions prompts big questions: Where did these strange beings come from? Why do they inspire such polarizing reactions? And is there any deeper meaning to these unusual yellow creatures? 1) What are Minions? The quest takes them to a villain convention in Florida and, soon after, all around the world. ![]() Set in the late 1960s, the movie follows three Minions as they search for a new evil boss to rule their species. Minions is a spinoff and prequel to Despicable Me and Despicable Me 2, but instead of focusing on Steve Carell's Gru, it puts the spotlight on the Minions alone. But no matter what you think about the curious pill-shaped creatures, their fame is about to rise thanks to their starring role in the new movie Minions, now in theaters. Perhaps you've already decided whether you love them, hate them, or simply find them baffling, as they've been known to inspire quite a range of emotions in all who encounter them. You've probably heard of Minions, or maybe you've just seen their bright yellow likeness on a T-shirt, meme, or bumper sticker. ![]() |
