![]() If you aren’t satisfied with your purchase for any reason, ship it back to the company for a full refund. Manta gives you a 60-day 100% money-back guarantee when you purchase their sleep mask. We think the Manta is comparable in quality to brands like Alaska Bear and Jersey Slumber. If you’re on a really tight budget you might want to look elsewhere, but you’re going to compromise on quality. The Manta Eye Mask is a little bit more expensive than other brands, but we think that the quality justifies the cost. The company emphasizes that the pouch will significantly increase the lifespan of your Manta Sleep Mask. It’s important to put the mask in the included mesh bag when washing to prevent it from deforming or getting damaged. Lay the mask flat to dry and avoid ironing it. To clean the mask, machine wash in cold water without using bleach. The entire Manta Sleep Mask – eye cups and strap – is machine washable. Manta holds up well even after repeated washing and drying, which eliminates one of the biggest concerns I have when buying products like this. The Manta Sleep Mask uses double-stitching and zig-zag stitching which makes it last much longer than cheap single-stitching. I found that these eye cups did a phenomenal job of blocking out both sunlight and artificial light. The eye cups are made out of soft foam coated with cotton for softness. I washed this mask a few times and didn’t notice any degradation in quality, so it’s safe to assume that Manta built this to last. ![]() The dual elastic stretch bands are triple-reinforced. The nylon and polyester are included to help make the strap more breathable and the cotton velour adds softness, which makes it way more comfortable to wear in my opinion. The strap is made out of nylon and polyester and lined with cotton velour. ![]() Manta gives you a 60-day money-back guarantee and a 6 month warranty to protect you from defects in workmanship and construction. The package comes with the Manta Sleep Mask itself, a mesh pouch, and earplugs. The mesh pouch can also be used for storing the mask. The mask is machine-washable and comes with a mesh pouch to put it in when it’s in the wash. The strap is made out of elastic and can be adjusted to fit your head size. The cups are swappable, meaning that you can replace them if they wear out or upgrade them to a different style. Manta features two eye cups that are made out of soft foam that are designed to completely block out sunlight.

And much of the fun comes from matching the right plants to the zombies you'll be facing in that particular round (which is thankfully shown to the player before the round begins). Each new round introduces a new type of zombie into the mix, as well as rewards you with a new plant to use in subsequent rounds. This is our chance to end the ogre menace to our lands once and for all. Kingdom Rush: Vengeance uses almost the same system as Kingdom Rush: Origins.

But that is the precise premise of Plants vs. There is undeniable ridiculousness behind the idea that your last line of defense between yourself and a horde of ravenous zombies are some hastily grown plants. You should at this point have a stunning Game Boy Macro that is personalized and unique.īoot up the macro without any games and make sure you set the bottom screen for GBA games, otherwise you’ll have sound and a black screen and not know what went wrong. Be patient and creative to accomplish this last step. This is particularly difficult when using third party shells. The trickiest part of the process is routing all the wires properly and making sure that the shell closes properly. I always put it on where I soldered the LED light and speakers and on the contacts points on the actual speakers. Use kapton tape to cover all contact points that may possible short. You will have to widen the hole of the right hinge post for the acrylic rod to fit. Step 6 – Add the light tubeĪdd a 6mm (.24 inches) acrylic rod to the section between the hinge posts of the bottom half of the DS Lite. I put one by the stylus slot hole and one inside the DS game slot. Position the speakers on the motherboard. I solder them to the contact by the headphone jack shown in picture. Solder the black wires of the speakers to a ground point on the motherboard. ![]() LEDC2 – anode of the LED light (negative).LEDA2 – cathode of LED light (positive). ![]() Refer to the picture to see what contacts to solder the LED light and speakers to. Solder the LED light and speakers to the motherboard. This is the most complex part of the process. Step 5 – Solder the LED light and speakers Solder the resistor to the cathode of the diode (positive side) and the wires as shown in the picture.Īt this point you may open the top part of the DS Lite and isolate the speakers from the top screen. Pick an LED diode with the color of your choice (I use 3mm, 6-12v lights), a 300 ohm resistor and 30AWG gauge wire. Doing this greatly improves the screen quality and removes any yellowing or scratches there may exit. You may at this point completely remove the touch screen layer from the rest of the screen. Remove the two screes that attach the motherboard to the front of the DS Lite (where the D-pad and buttons are) and push on the screen from the outside to completely separate motherboard from shell.ĭetach the bottom screen from the motherboard and you should now have the motherboard of the DS Lite completely isolated. Once again, a spudge is very helpful for this. Remove the touch screen small ribbon connector by easily pulling it from the motherboard. Remove the top screen ribbon connector by popping up the black bracket that secures it and pulling it away from the connector. The white cable should immediately be isolated from motherboard upon disconnecting it. Route the black cable underneath the DS slot and isolate it from the motherboard. All you need is slight upward pressure and they should easily snap off. Step 3 – Isolate the motherboardįind the black cable on the WiFi module and the white cable next to it on the motherboard and use a spudge or something similar to remove them. Once the shell removed the back of DS Lite motherboard will be completely accessible. Don’t forget the single screw at the edge of the DS slot. Remove the two rubber covers on the top to get to the two screws there. Begin with the battery cover, remove the battery and remove the screws under the battery. Use a tri wing screw driver and a small phillips screw driver to remove the back of the bottom part of the DS Lite. These are often sold for parts and are the perfect candidates for a macro. Nintendo DS Lites are notorious for broken hinges, cracked screens, and damaged shells. I was recently approached by Hand Held Legend to put together a brief, basic guide on how I build these and I gladly accepted. Not satisfied with this, I started making two speaker versions of my macros and this has become one of the most appreciated features of my builds. ![]() The other interesting I realized is that macros mostly had one speaker and the use of headphones was encouraged. When I started building these macros and posting the pictures, I realized how much people liked to personalize their handhelds, so I began creating many distinct color combinations and utilizing many different acrylic rods (the light tubes) to produce a stunning final result. The distinct feature of the “Neon Advance” is the light tube that adorns it between the hinge posts.Ī few months later, inspired by Joe Bleep’s masterpiece and motivated by YouTube channels like “ This Does Not Compute” and “ The Retro Future”, I began my modding journey and eventually got the confidence to build my first Game Boy Macro. In 2018 Joe Bleeps created the “Neon Advance” and I immediately fell in love with it! The “Neon Advance” is basically a Game Boy Macro – a modified Nintendo DS Lite that is meant to play Game Boy Advance Games. ![]() This is a wine that can pose a few challenges because it can be extremely stingy depending on the vintage and the proximity to the sea.

The Keeley Compressor Plus is the first true advancement in our 2 and 4 knob compressor line. We know how to make it fun and easy to play. We know how to make your guitar jump from the mix. We know what it takes to make an instrument sound like it’s been professionally recorded. With well over 80,000 compressors built in our shop we have an expert understanding of compression, limiting, and sustain. The Keeley Compressor is the most popular boutique compressor in the world. If this is what you hope to get out of a compressor, then this is precisely the pedal to add to your chain. There are many scenarios where this could be quite useful and translate well on stage. The Compressor Plus gives your sound more edge, more focus on the mids, and more “electrified” sound. For those that want to use compression as an effect itself, this pedal is one to check out. Even at its lowest compression setting, the Compressor Plus gives you that squished mid-range-heavy sound that certain levels of compression create. This is in part due to the ratio of compression (the lower the better for this purpose). Many horn players need ways to tame all of the added frequencies and signal level their pedals create, and a compressor like the Keeley GC-2 does that perfectly without sucking out your tone. For those who are looking for a compressor that will not drastically alter your tone, and will simply manage your signal, this is not your pedal. This category is one that truly depends on the user. If this is what you are looking for out of a compressor pedal, this is exactly the pedal for you. It does not reproduce a super clean and crisp version of your tone, rather it inflects your sound with its own personality. Unlike its brother, The GC-2, the Compressor Plus has its own sound. However, if you view compression as a tool to manage your signal, and to corral and contain all of the craziness that your pedals are creating, then this pedal may not be the right choice. If you are the type of player that wants to use compression to simply add some personality, a little grit, or some more mid range to your sound, than this pedal will do wonders for you. Although this pedal is perfect for guitar players, it may have limited applicability in the world of horn players. With more settings to tweak and a more user friendly interface, this pedal gives its intended audience (guitar players) a magnificent a terrific solution for compression. This is yet another feature that provides you with great versatility and the option to tweak the pedal perfectly for your setup.With the offering of the Compressor Plus, Keeley has given their fans a newer, more versatile take on their classic four-knob compressor. This switch adjusts the attack and release, to suit your guitar. This means that if you’re running into a dark-sounding amp or using a guitar with humbuckers, you can crank this control to compensate and allow your guitar sound to cut through.Ī new feature of the Compressor Plus is the single-coil/humbucker mode switch. The Tone control is another great feature, providing a way to adjust the brightness of the output. If you turn the control all the way to the left you get a 50/50 blend, and all the way to the right produces all the squashed pluck you’ll ever need. It lets you adjust the mix of the compressed and uncompressed signal: if you want more transparency, you can use this control to your advantage. There's also a single-coil/humbucker mode switch, letting you set the pedal appropriately depending on the pickups in your guitar.īlend controls are becoming more and more popular on contemporary compressor pedals. The Compressor Plus has been fitted with its Blend to meet the needs of modern guitarists. The Compressor Plus also has versatile Blend and Tone controls to tweak the hold it has on your dry signal. Conventional Sustain and Level controls allow you to adjust the compression ratio and amount of gain respectively. The new Compressor Plus pedal is a permanent replacement for the classic 4 Knob Compressor, and if Keeley are confident enough to replace a legendary stomp box like that - then this new offering must be good!Įverything about the Compressor Plus is simple, but effective. Keeley are renowned for building exceptional quality pedals, and their popular compressor units are seen on countless pedalboards across the world. ![]() When it comes to poinsettias for Christmas, we especially love the marbled and speckled variations which combine two or more shades to bold effect. Traditionally, the most popular colors associated with. The most popular poinsettia color is red, however, there are lots of different color variations that can bring interest and character to a Christmas interior. Each color has historical meaning, with roots in western and northern European traditions and customs. What is the most popular poinsettia color? ![]() 'This is because poinsettias don't like lower temperatures and so the plant won't last as long.'įor this reason, she also advises that you should get your new poinsettia home from the store as quickly as possible.įollow these rules and your chosen poinsettia should keep its leaves through the festive season and beyond. ‘Buy your poinsettia from an indoor store rather than an outdoor stall,’ adds Robinson. Yellow, faded leaves are indicators of plants that are nearing the end of their potential shelf life.’ ‘Also, the lower leaves of the plant should look fresh and dark green. If the cyathia have fallen out, then the plant has passed its peak performance,’ says Faust. ‘When selecting a poinsettia, look for a full cluster of cyathia – the true flowers in the middle of the red bracts. Avoid wilted poinsettias and those with dry or very waterlogged soil. Poinsettias are popular Christmas decorations in homes, churches, offices. The plants also require abundant light during the day for the brightest color. Only purchase poinsettias that have been kept indoors, away from the doors. The colors of the bracts are created through photoperiodism, meaning that they require darkness (at least fourteen hours at a time for 68 weeks in a row) to change color. 4 spots in terms of Christmas color popularityand they both beautifully complement red.

This is primarily due to the Skydio 2 drone launched in November 2019, which is mainly designed for the prosumer sector for film & photography. The company recently raised $170 million on a unicorn valuation topping $1 billion to enable it to expand globally and accelerate product development and was able to increase its drone market share by around one third for its highly automated drones. The next company in the top 10 ranking is Skydio which was only founded in 2014. That means it will be interesting to see how the trio of models affected Autel’s drone market share in the next ranking. The drone models EVO II, EVO II Pro and EVO II Dual, which are of interest to the commercial drone industry, were released only a few months before the end of the data collection. Additionally, the inclusion of the Parrot Anafi-USA drone on DIU`s (Defense of Innovation Unit) list of “Trusted sUAS Options for DoD and Federal Government” will certainly have a positive effect for Parrot Drones in the future (this was after the period under current review).Īutel Robotics was also unable to completely maintain its drone market share and suffered minimal losses but is still defending 5th place. The French drone manufacturer has now completely left the hobby drone market and is only focusing on the commercial market. ![]() The subsidiary of Parrot SA (PARRO: EN Paris), Parrot Drones, gained 0.3% drone market share and is currently only 0.1% behind Yuneec with 2.5%. Particularly since mid-2019, the Chinese company has continued to come under pressure, the number of new registrations to direct competitors was comparatively lower. 0.5%), though this is much more significant given that their total drone market share is now only 2.6%. The former lost less market share than DJI (-0.7% vs. Yuneec was able to defend its 3 rd place on the podium ahead of Parrot Drones. The number of Falcon 8 and Falcon 8+ inspection drones taken out of production has roughly halved compared to 2 years ago. However, about 98% of Intel drones are Shooting Star drones, which are used for drone shows in several hundredfold numbers. ![]() The company Intel, known mainly for the production of semiconductors, ranks 2nd, which is certainly a surprise to many. The Mavic Air 2, which did not hit the market until spring 2020, and was thus only 2 months into the data collection period, stood out as the new box office hit. The most registered drone model was the Mavic Pro, which has been available on the market since late 2016. This is despite the 0.7% decline since the mid-2019 ranking, which is of little consequence given this magnitude of market power. 76.1% of all entries in the database are from the Chinese company. The non-plus-ultra in terms of drone market share is and remains DJI. But there are some other things that are worth mentioning: A dent in DJI’s reputation has definitely occurred in some parts of the industry thanks to the accusation, whose legal merit has not yet been established. Whether the manufacturer might have had more shares otherwise is impossible to judge. Consequently, this also means that the drone ban has not resulted in a significant decline for DJI in terms of market share so far. DJI, Intel, Yuneec and Parrot still lead the ranking, but there are some new drone OEMs showing up compared to our last raking. But what kind of impact did the ban have on drone market share by mid-2020 and who are the biggest manufacturers under Part 107 in the U.S.? This article will answer these questions as well as shedding light on other findings.įirst of all, it is worth mentioning that there are no major changes. Quite a few industry participants postulated, wishfully or not, that this would end DJI’s market dominance in the U.S. initiated bans of Chinese drones for government agencies under the American Drone Security Act of 2019. At the time, the “trade war” between the U.S. It was about 1.5 years ago when we evaluated the registered drones under Part 107 in the U.S. ![]() Lastly, Autel Robotics technically has global headquarters in Shenzhen, China, but they hold regional headwarters in the USA for the purpose of this article, which is also in line with their Linkedin page description) In addition, Sensefly merged with AgEagle. (Editorial note: since this article was published in March 2021, Intel no longer produces drones (Falcon8) and their drone show business was acquired by Nova Sky Stories. ![]() Wild populations of papaya are generally confined to naturally disturbed tropical forests. Papaya cultivation is now nearly pantropical, spanning Hawaii, central Africa, India, and Australia. Spaniards introduced papaya to the Old World in the 16th century. Papaya is also considered native to southern Florida, introduced by predecessors of the Calusa no later than 300 CE. Native to tropical America, papaya originates from southern Mexico and Central America. Papaya seeds also contain the cyanogenic substance prunasin. The carotenoids, lutein and beta-carotene, are prominent in the yellow skin, while lycopene is dominant in the red flesh (table). Papaya skin, pulp, and seeds contain a variety of phytochemicals, including carotenoids and polyphenols, as well as benzyl isothiocyanates and benzyl glucosinates, with skin and pulp levels that increase during ripening. Longitudinal section of fruit showing orange flesh and numerous black seeds All plant parts contain latex in articulated laticifers. The leaves are large, 50–70 cm (20–28 in) in diameter, deeply palmately lobed, with seven lobes. The lower trunk is conspicuously scarred where leaves and fruit were borne. The papaya is a small, sparsely branched tree, usually with a single stem growing from 5 to 10 m (16 to 33 ft) tall, with spirally arranged leaves confined to the top of the trunk. ![]() The word papaya comes from Arawak via Spanish, this is also where papaw and pawpaw come from. In 2020, India produced 42% of the world's supply of papayas. It is grown in several countries in regions with a tropical climate. It was first domesticated in Mesoamerica, within modern-day southern Mexico and Central America. I guess I need to contemplate this a bit more before I test this conversion theory and apply it to Iron Chef Chen’s ‘Almond Pudding’.The papaya ( / p ə ˈ p aɪ ə/, US: / p ə ˈ p ɑː j ə/), papaw, ( / p ə ˈ p ɔː/ ) or pawpaw ( / ˈ p ɔː p ɔː/ ) is the plant species Carica papaya, one of the 21 accepted species in the genus Carica of the family Caricaceae. Estimating the agar conversion, it suggests 1 1/4 teaspoon of the powdered agar. This suggests that that would be about 3.756 teaspoons (3 3/4 teaspoons) of granulated gelatin. Iron Chef Chen’s recipe for the almond pudding/almond tofu calls for 10g leaf gelatin (that is going to be soaked) mixed into 1 1/4 cups of water (heated) and 1 5/6 oz (55g) of sugar. The upshot of this is that there appears to be a 3:1 powdered gelatin to powdered agar conversion. So that suggests 1 granulated teaspoon is about 2.6625 gms This translates to: 4-1/2 sheets = 1 tbs, a 12.5% difference. Slightly less common rule: 1-1/2 sheets of gelatin = 1 tsp granulated. However, note that 1 pack of gelatin usually = 2.5 (and not 3.0) tsp. Most common rule: 1 pack of gelatin = 7.1 gms (approximately) = 1/4 oz (exactly) = 4 sheets (about) = 1 tbs granulated (about). The discussion here seems to indicate that – After running about the net, I came across two pieces of information – I thought to myself – what if I was going to make a dessert for vegetarians/vegans – how would I do it? So the first thing I needed to research was what the recommended gelatin-to-agar conversion measurements were. ![]() ![]() It’s been my impression that gelatin is used in a lot of applications.

Iron Chef Chen has an ‘almond pudding’ (which he also refers to as ‘annin tofu’) in his book (p. A couple of years ago, I tried to make ‘almond tofu’ from scratch using agar but got mixed results and most of the time, the end result was too firm or didn’t quite have that ‘jiggle factor’ that kinugoshi tofu has. ![]() Fortunately, most places in the United States only require a few hundred dollars to a few thousand per year to legally operate and serve food.
