1/18/2024 0 Comments Typical keto macro ratioSo in terms of nutrition and food, energy is just really another way of saying calories. And macronutrients, as I said before, those yield energy. And you also need quite a bit more, right, macro versus micro. You're getting a lot more carbohydrate, fat, and protein in your diet than you are getting calcium and vitamin A. So these are the big players in your diet. How do they work in the big picture in your diet? The macronutrients are carbs, protein and fat. So that's one of my goals today is to put macros into context for you. They don't really know what these things really are without more context. But when it comes to macros or macronutrients, that's where a lot of people start to get fuzzy. The micronutrients are always emphasized when we learned about nutrition growing up. That's vitamin C, the B vitamins, calcium, iron, whatever. Now when I say vitamins and minerals, people know what I'm talking about. That's where the term "macros" comes from. OK, so macro, micro, big versus small in the nutrient supply in regards to your dietary needs. While micronutrients, the vitamins and minerals in your diet are essential, but they're only required in small amounts in comparison. Macronutrients, yield energy, which you need in pretty significant amounts. So bear with me because we'll get into some of the more advanced stuff and just a bit.īut macronutrients are the nutrients in your diet that make up a significant portion of your intake. And I know that some of you guys already know this stuff. So first, what are macros? The term macros is just short for macronutrients. And next week, I'm going to talk all about tracking macros, including tools to consider and the good, the bad and the ugly side of it. So this week we're gonna learn about what the heck macros are and why they matter for keto. If you guys have lots of questions about it, then breaking it down into two smaller parts seems a little better. Because instead of just one giant lump of information, I want this to be actionable, manageable stuff that isn't overwhelming. So keeping that in mind, I'm going to be breaking this into a couple of different episodes. And if I was to lump all the questions I get into different categories, I'd say that the macronutrient category would be right at the top, bursting at the seams from all the different questions I get about this topic. I'd even go as far to say it's the biggest source of frustration for most people doing keto for a long time. And I think this is gonna be really super duper helpful for people because over the years, I have got to say that this is quite honestly the biggest source of frustration for most people getting started on keto. I hope you're excited for today's episode because I'm going to be talking all about macros. Sonix is the best way to convert your audio to text in 2020.

I have suffered a second shoulder injury limiting my ability to draw a crossbow and all the thousands of dollars of recurve and compound bows are useless to me now sadly. I bought the Ravin R10 last year for hunting deer in Texas. Loads of crossbows are damaged by trees and racks on ATVs, etc. Limb tip clearance harder to judge when shooting near obstacles like trees. Reverse limb bows, one has to be careful. Ravin is the premiere whitetail hunting bow imo.Īnd these 2 newer models even more premiere. I have only been around a mission sub 1 once, and it was the original model since 2 more models have beeen released.Īccuracy wise the Ravins shoot nicely if set up correctly. Maintenance on Ravins is easy once you get familiar.ĭoes a person need super duper mechanic ability to remove and replace strings on Ravin bows? NoĬocking feature of Ravins is easy. They don’t give them away but not as much as a full bow press like last chance. Ravin owner’s imo good idea to have their own press. i said if I were going to be a weekly shooter, or a daily shooter throughout the year, I think mission sub one best choice. Will be easier on strings and cables vs R26 and R29 and the rest except for the older R9 bow. Not the fastest, but not the most expensive. Imo for the money right now, R10 Best Buy overall. This is the how Ravin got the bows shorter. R26 and R 29 have bolt placement moved back. R20 longest model, R10 a few inches shorter. For its size smallest powerhouse out there currently. New Ravin R29 and R26 lighter bows than previous Ravin models. I recommend no quiver and bolts be on the side User is using to decock bow. One must be careful and take their time when decocking. And decocking can be done and this will always be silent. User of Ravin needs to get used to cocking bow silently. If you shoot Ravin while in stand, and need a second shot, you have ability to do silent cocking. Carry bow to stand pull up load and hunt. For example get out of truck or side by side say around 300 yards from tree stand. User doesn’t want to did this unless necessary. Bows can be cranked silently by holding button. Mission sub wider, this will prevent user from taking some shots a Ravin user can pull off in the wild. Mission sub one a better year round bow to shoot.

1/18/2024 0 Comments Nuclear throne melting b skin saveMake sure you're well acquainted with the game before you take this on. Hope some of this helps! Yeah! Thanks for so many tips! Never take bloodlust, Second Stomach, Stress, or Sharp Teeth. Also, if you already have Scarier Face and then take Gamma Guts, snowbots and freaks can't hurt you as long as you are moving. Scarier Face has some nice synergies: with it, Shovel can now kill crysal spiders in one hit, making it a viable weapon all the way into the throne fight. Take Scarier Face, as enemies will die more easily and therefore more quickly. Take Long Arms as well, since you'll be able to deflect projectiles from further away, and take care of assassins with ease. Get a melee weapons as soon as possible: preferably Shovel, Energy Sword, or Jackhammer. Originally posted by Cetaceous:Here are the strategies I used to get Melting's B-Skin: If you get lucky with weapons/mutations, you can still have a really good run, and you don't have to fight through most of levels 1, 2, and 3. If you have a high-damage golden weapon to start (Golden Crossbow, Golden Grenade Launcher, Golden Assault Rifle, etc.) you can try for the Oasis Skip. Never take Bloodlust, Second Stomach, Stress, or Sharp Teeth. Health-related mutations are useless to you. (Edit: Plutonium Hunger can also be a good choice, so you don't have to risk chasing after drops) If no better mutations are available, take something that will give you ammo, like Lucky Shot, Rabbit Paw, Open Mind, or, if you're really hurting for ammo, Last Wish. It also makes sub-optimal offensive weapons more viable. Take trigger fingers, since you'll be able to swing your melee weapon a lot faster as long as you are killing stuff. Scarier Face has some nice synergies: with it, Shovel can now kill crystal spiders in one hit, making it a viable weapon all the way into the throne fight. If nothing like this shows up, damage is generally more important (take Crossbow over Pop Gun, for example), but appropriate weapons are invaluable for taking on lil hunter and the throne. Get Auto Crossbow, Gatling Slugger, Assault Slugger, Auto Shotgun, or another mid-to-high damage, high rate of fire weapon. Hammerhead can be good for getting out of tricky situations. Euphoria can also help, since it will give you more time to react to attacks. Take Boiling Veins if no other mutations take precedence, since you are always under 4 HP and therefore always immune to explosions/fire. Take Throne Butt: melting's explosions erase projectiles, meaning bigger corpse explosions can be an effective way to defend yourself Get a melee weapon as soon as possible: preferably Shovel, Energy Sword, or Jackhammer. After taking the Frog Pistol out of the Proto Chest, it will turn into a Golden Frog Pistol.Here are the strategies I used to get Melting's B-Skin: The Proto Chest is encountered on to a Crown Vault with a Crown, unlocked by breaking a Proto Statue, giving it enough XP by killing enemies, and then breaking it again. Mom is encountered after looping and going to the Sewers, or 2-1 L1. Golden Weapons can be found in 3-? (Yung Venuz's Mansion) or after looping. He is only available for that run and is not unlocked as a starting character.įrog is unlocked by shooting Mom with a Golden Weapon and picking up the Frog Pistol she drops on death, then storing that Frog Pistol in a Proto Chest and picking it up as a different character. Skeleton is unlocked by dying as Melting in 6-1 (The Labs) and being resurrected by a Necromancer, one of the gentlemen in white hoods.

I checked all the options in the program and nothing made me feel very confident i wasn't going to just burn a CD with the. cue file in it, it didn't give me any files it recognized as openable. but when i'd go to "file / open" and point to the folder with the. img file is the ame since that's the file with the data. i actually don't think any of these zips come with. Some of the 3DO files come with some extra files i'm not familiar with.sub. while normal disks operated fine telling me the CD drive is ok. I just knew something was wrong because all of the burned disks you could tell the poor 3DO was having to re-read a number of tracks because i assume it was having trouble making out the data. and i'd even say maybe it didn't burn but the disk did play but the whole disk looked consistent in pattern. the image i was burning was only 350mb or so. in fact when burned surprisingly i couldn't even really see the burned area from the unburned. i seem to remember CD-Rs being not sooo translucent. I'm going to give it a try tonight.Īlso anyone have any suggestions of best quality CD-R? I must admit the disks i'm burning to concern me because i dunno, they seem like they are so think blank i can see through them already. The author had shared that while he had OS9 dev experience, burn was OSX only so that's good to know. i didn't know where to find download history of versions. Thank you! i got reply from the creator and shared the link to that 2.5.1 so thank you for that suggestion. 1/18/2024 0 Comments Lazarus species lossThe notion of the lazarus taxon is a notion that will also help to kick off a week-long feature on the ragbag-a challenge 700 years in the making. the lazarus tazon symbolises the idea that what once was lost may one day again be found, what once was thought long dead may one day again be revived-like 8 bit video games and walt disney. I relay this information to you not because it involves ugly fish with underbites or to give some hippies a new animal cause to fight for but purely as a symbol. Mountain Pygmy Possum Australia’s only truly hibernating marsupial, known originally from the fossil record and then discovered in 1966, this species is again facing extinction due to global warming, introduced predator species and habitat loss.Dawn Redwood: a genus of conifer, was first described as a fossil from the Mesozoic Era, but in 1944 a small stand was discovered in China.Laotian Rock Rat: thought to have gone extinct 11 million years ago found in 1996. Monoplacophora: a mollusk believed to have died out 380 million years ago until living members were discovered in deep water off Costa Rica in 1952.Coelacanth: a fish thought to have gone extinct 80 million years ago found in 1938.The possibility that one of the largest and most majestic of woodpecker species still survives is inspirational to some but as with many species whose habitat has been all but destroyed by human activity, any extant population is unlikely to recover to a viable level, if it even still exists at all.In paleontology, a Lazarus taxon (plural taxa) is a taxon that disappears from one or more periods of the fossil record, only to appear again later. A form of floating, photosynthetic algae that was particularly common during the Proterozoic Eon these experienced biodiversity losses associated with. The interval during which a Lazarus species is missing from the fossil record this 'gap' is what gives the impression that the species went extinct 18. Many experts think the 2004 sighting was of a pileated woodpecker, a bird of very similar appearance and size. The fundamental unit of geologic time 17. Ivory-billed habitat (swampy, bottomland hardwood forest) is rough terrain for those seeking the bird and so far no indisputable evidence has emerged to confirm its existence. There is even a $50,000 USD reward for positive photographic evidence, offered by an anonymous donor. It is far from being a definitive list, more. The list includes,mammals, birds, amphibians and reptiles. The Coelecanth is possibly the most famous example, but this list looks at some of the more recent rediscoveries to highlight that work is still going on and exciting discoveries are being made all the time. The sighting has stirred enough excitement to launch searches for this ‘Lazarus species’ in Arkansas, Florida and Texas, coordinated by the US Fish and Wildlife Service, the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and state wildlife agencies. A Lazarus Species or taxon is one which is thought to be extinct, only to reappear. In February 2004, a large woodpecker was seen by two kayakers in the Cache River National Wildlife Refuge in Arkansas and based on the evidence, including a two-second video clip, many believe C. Demand from collectors, including ornithologists, increased as it became more rare, speeding its elimination. The huge appetite for lumber to rebuild after the American Civil War led to the destruction of Ivory-billed habitat and its primary food source, beetle larvae. Thought extinct for more than 60 years, the ivory-billed woodpecker has become the species most people associate with extinction in the Americas. An intrepid explorer is walking through the woods when they stumble across an ancient organism not seen for millions of years. 1/17/2024 0 Comments Flexing in a smedium shirt memeDuring that time, I had many different coaches and I began to notice repeating patterns among them.Ĭoaches tend to come up through a certain system. New coaches will often land their first job as an assistant coach with their alma mater or a team they played with previously. After a few years, the young coach will move on to their own head coaching job where they tend to replicate the same drills, follow similar practice schedules, and even yell at their players in a similar fashion as the coaches they learned from. This phenomenon-our tendency to repeat the behavior we are exposed to-extends to nearly everything we learn in life. Your political or religious beliefs are mostly the result of the system you were raised in. People raised by Catholic families tend to be Catholic. People raised by Muslim families tend to be Muslim. Although you may not agree on every issue, your parents political attitudes tend to shape your political attitudes. The way we approach our day-to-day work and life is largely a result of the system we were trained in and the mentors we had along the way. At some point, we all learned to think from someone else. 1/17/2024 0 Comments Iron condor optionsThe 385-strike put costs 3.06 and the 405-strike call costs 2.22. These long options would act as a hedge thus capping the downside for the strategy. To complete the Iron Condor, the trader would also purchase the 385-strike put and 405-strike call options. This is done by purchasing a put at a strike lower than the sold put and also purchasing a call at a strike higher than the sold call. The benefit of the iron condor is limiting the downside risk in these ‘red’ sections. Looking at the short strangle payoff above, the ‘red’ sections on the left and right represent possibilities of significant loss for the trader if the underlying moves into these areas. The total premium received from this part of the trade is 8.36. By doing this, the trader would receive 4.42 in premium from the short 390-strike put and 3.94 in premium from the short 400-strike call. Using the data in illustration 2, we would short a strangle by selling the 390-strike put and the 400-strike call option. Let’s walk through how we would implement this. In the two illustrations below, you can see the payoff differences between the long strangle and short strangle are mirror images. They would sell these options instead of buying them. To construct a short strangle, the trader does the exact opposite. Often the call option strike price is above the current underlying price. The trader also purchases a call option at a strike price that is above the put option’s strike price. We will break this down into two parts to help you understand this better: the short strangle and the hedge.Īs you have seen earlier, in a long strangle, a trader purchases a put option at a particular strike price, usually one that is below the current underlying price. This is a four-leg strategy and consists of buying a call and put as well as selling a call and put. How do you construct it?Īn Iron Condor is the most complicated strategy that we will discuss. Also, the trader isn’t required to have a specific forecast of market direction, but the trade will be successful if the underlying security doesn’t move. This trade works best when the underlying is more volatile prior to entering the trade and then becomes less volatile during the life of the options. With an iron condor, the strategy is constructed so that the maximum loss is fixed. The biggest drawback to that strategy was the potential for unlimited losses. We learned about short straddles earlier. This strategy is essentially a hedged, short strangle. Why would you use this?Ī trader will enter into an Iron Condor option strategy if they believe that the underlying will not be volatile during the period prior to expiration. Read on to understand what it is and how to construct it. Think of it as a more complex short straddle - but one where the losses are limited. But what happens when markets are flat and one does not expect any volatility around expiry? The Iron condor is your answer. We have also discussed what strategy works if one is uncertain about the direction, but believes the security could be volatile before expiry. Step 6 (optional): you can modify the spot price, number of days before expiry or implied volatility through the controls below the chart to simulate the P&L of your strategy and see how it fares under new market conditions (note that this is theoretical though).Up until now, we have discussed strategies that can be deployed when traders believe a security will move up or down. Step 4: enter the option price and quantity for each leg (quantity is expected to be the same for each leg) all options have to expire at the same date) Step 3: enter the maturity in days of the strategy (i.e. Step 2: enter the underlying asset price and risk free rate Step 1: select your option strategy type ('Long Iron Condor', or 'Short Iron Condor') it lets you see how your options' price varies alongside a price and/or It also gives you tools to estimate the profit and loss (P&L) of your strategy before maturity by giving you control over price, This calculator displays the payoff of your strategy at maturity depending on the underlying asset price. An iron condor is similar to a strangle, except that both upside and downside are limited. On the contrary, a short iron condor would be suitable if you expect low volatility and a stable price. This strategy is suitable when you expect a big move up or down, beyond the lowest and highest strike prices of your options. Iron Condor Profit Calculator A long iron condor strategy has four legs and consists in selling one OTM put, buying one OTM put with a higher strike price, buying one ITM call and selling one ITM call with a higher strike price. 1/17/2024 0 Comments Kaiser permanente union strikeBut they seemed to be at a standstill with Kaiser on the size of pay raises and on whether locations where Kaiser Permanente expands should also become part of the union, along with other issues. The Coalition of Kaiser Permanente Unions said they were making progress with Kaiser on several issues. Explore FROM 2018 IN THE AJC: Blue Cross Georgia-Piedmont Healthcare dispute grows grim It has even resulted thousands of insurance policyholders suddenly losing in-network access to an entire health system nearby because the insurance company and the health system broke their contract. A union representing health care workers and administrators with Kaiser Permanente say they have reached a tentative contract deal following after a three-day strike last week. In other health systems, that frequently results in contract battles between insurance companies and hospital systems. The problem comes as health care prices nationwide have been rising faster than inflation for years, compounded by recent record inflation. The coalition of unions girding for the strike, the Coalition of Kaiser Permanente Unions, said it would be the largest health care strike in history. Health systems nationwide have faced an exodus of burnt-out health care workers from the pandemic, and demands for better pay amid inflation. “We wouldn’t have any workers to lend out,” said Porras, who is executive assistant to the union local’s president. Asked if that could change, McClelland said he couldn’t speculate.Ī representative of the Georgia union, Ralph Porras, said the union didn’t have a position on lending workers to the striking hospitals, but that it wouldn’t work because Georgia is suffering the same staff shortage. If Kaiser Permanente workers in other states go on strike, Kaiser Permanente in Georgia does not plan to send its own employees out of state to fill those gaps elsewhere “at this time,” said the Kaiser spokesman, Kevin McClelland. A majority of Kaiser’s Georgia employees are represented by a different union: the Alliance of Health Care Unions UFCW local union 1996.īecause the strike involves a different union, Georgia will not be part of the strike, officials for Kaiser and the union in Georgia said. Georgia’s 3,250 Kaiser Permanente employees are not part of the union coalition in the contract battle. In Georgia, Kaiser serves more than 300,000 patients around Atlanta and Athens with more than 600 doctors in addition to other workers.

She continues to play an integral role helping my administration and workers across this country build an economy that works for everyone,” Biden said. “This isn’t the first time Acting Secretary Su has helped essential workers and their employers reach an agreement. We must continue to have theirs,” Biden said.īiden also praised Su for helping to broker a deal. They had our backs during one of our nation’s toughest times. “Health care workers and support staff kept our hospitals – and our nation– going during the dark months of the pandemic. President Biden in a statement said he was “grateful” the two sides could reach an agreement. Su arrived back in California Thursday evening to help the sides bridge the gap on “key lingering issues,” the union groups said. Kaiser Permanente issued a similar statement echoing support for Su, who was in San Francisco attempting to negotiate a last-minute deal between the sides before the strike. Workers say that Kaiser is committing unfair labor practices and also that under-staffing is boosting Kaiser’s profits but hurting patients, according to a union statement. “We are thankful for the instrumental support of acting U.S. The union countered that Kaiser Permanente has made 3 billion in the first six months of 2023, based on a recent financial report from the company. “The frontline healthcare workers of the Coalition of Kaiser Permanente Unions are excited to have reached a tentative agreement with Kaiser Permanente as of this morning,” the unions said in a statement. 1/17/2024 0 Comments Broom finish concrete slabFeather finish is a good way to revitalise old, uneven concrete floor as it hides imperfections and leaves a smooth yet textured surface. Feather Finish Concrete requires the application of a commercial feather finishing compound.Smooth concrete surfaces like these can be slippery though, especially when wet. Float finishes are easier to achieve as floats often have long, extendable handles that allow concrete to be efficiently smoothed at a comfortable standing position. This finish is similar to a trowel finish except that different tools are used. Float Finish Concrete creates a compact, smooth, and sturdy surface by running a float over the laid concrete.Before the newly laid concrete dries completely, a trowel is used to level and smooth it out. Trowel Finish Concrete is achieved by using trowels to smooth out a newly installed concrete surface.The following day, the top layer is washed off, exposing the sand below. This chemical slows the drying of the top level of cement. When the concrete floor is laid out and is drying, a chemical is then left on the surface overnight. To get a sand finish concrete floor, a concrete mixture that uses sand as an aggregate is required. Sand Finish Concrete or sand wash concrete, is treated to create the texture and colour of sand. This is also a particularly good concrete finish to use outdoors as the pits and indentations help to create traction. What is left is an interesting pattern of small pits and indentations. When dry, water is splashed on the surface, until the layer of salt melts and washes away. A salt finish is created by apply a sprinkling of rock salt on top of the concrete before it completely dries. Salt Finish Concrete is another simple way to add interesting texture to a concrete floor.This simple yet effective surface is great for both the indoors and outdoors, but it is especially good for outdoors as it will keep the floor from becoming too slippery when wet. These ridges create an interesting and eye-catching pattern and increases the traction of the floor. Dragging a broom over the surface of drying concrete leaves behind small textured ridges. Broom Finish Concrete is one of the most simple and basic forms of concrete finishes.Stamped concrete, however, achieves a highly aesthetic look that is perfect for applications such as outdoor patios. Stamped concrete is the most expensive form of concrete finishing due to the amount of time involved to carefully and uniformly place the stamped pattern. Options include brick, wood plank, and tile patterns, among others. Stamped concrete offers an endless number of finishes depending on the stamp design the homeowner chooses. The color of the rock is dependent upon your rock supplier. In order to achieve the exposed finish of pea gravel, a plastic sheet is placed on top of the concrete before a pressure washer is used to remove the surface retarder. Pea gravel mixes are mostly found in residential driveways and patios. Pea gravel concrete finishes require a completely different mix design which typically consists of 50% sand and 50% pea gravel. The presence of air can cause delamination and blistering during the lifespan of the concrete. Hard troweled finishes are typically only applied to non-air interior concrete mixes. Both hand trowels and ride on trowel machines are used to give the concrete a smooth slick finish in this scenario. This finish takes longer to achieve than the broom finish due to the need to make multiple passes with a steel trowel along the surface of the slab. The hard trowel finish can likely be found in the garage of your own home as well as the floors of large commercial buildings such as Wal-Mart or Costco. Broom finishes are typically applied to exterior (air entrained) concrete that will be exposed to weather. This finish simply has a broom run across the top of concrete while the concrete is still slightly wet, to give it a textured non-slip finish. The broom finish is what you find on the sidewalk when walking through your neighborhood. Today we will cover what can be found in the majority of residential homes, to help homeowners obtain the function and aesthetics they wish to achieve. There are an endless number of concrete finishes. |
