We apologize that the room did not meet or exceed the expectations you had. Hello mjroeser, Firstly, we would like to sincerely thank you for choosing to stay with us and for taking the time to review the experience you had at our lodge. We hope you enjoy(ed) the rest of your time in Costa Rica, and wish you the very best on your future travels! Austin G. Thanks once again for your feedback weehawks. With over 11 kilometers of trails and the closest lookouts from which to view the volcano, an outdoorsman (or woman :D) is unlikely to ever get bored. If you are coming to Costa Rica to experience the flora and fauna of the rainforest, there is no better place near Arenal from which to do so. We completely agree that our location caters to nature enthusiasts, and not individuals who may prefer the hustle and bustle of a tourist town like La Fortuna. With that said, we are constantly making changes to our rooms to bring them up-to-date without losing touch with our unique history. We have had to renovate many aspects of the rooms since then, but the skeleton remains largely intact. Our hotel has a rich history involving the Smithsonian Institute, and many of our rooms were originally built to house researchers while they studied the volcano. A good night's sleep is essential after a day full of rainforest adventures. We understand that our rooms might not compare to other hotels that offer $500 a night suites with every amenity under the sun, but we do like to ensure our clients are comfortable and our rooms are clean. We are happy to read that you found the rooms to be clean and slept well. We appreciate the feedback and rely on comments like yours to keep improving the services we offer to guests here at the hotel. Hola weehawks, Wow!

Plus, I've seen all your patches on these forums for quite awhile, they seem intermediate, like maybe you still have quite a ways to go before you know the full capabilities of Max or any DSP environment at least in comparison to people like Miller Puckette. i was just asking for your list of projects and i feel inclined to disagree when people say Max can't do something that I've seen done. ![]() and that definitely makes you hypocritical when saying you're trying not to be combative or demeaning. you shouldn't put words in other people's mouths(that's too American, with its quickness to judge and jump to prejudice: I know you're smarter than that. seriously, my words(prior to this post, anyways) don't show any in any literal way(i do get sarcastic, though, in general because that's my personality, i shouldn't have to filter that just because of some notion of conformity that you might have about these forums), but of course you can infer anything you want if you're prone to eccentricity like most of us tech people are, anyways, i don't have a problem with that, either(and i edited the 'sir' because it was too sarcastic, decided i would edit out of respect). Where's the anger? you must be a midwesterner to jump to conclusions about people so quickly. you shouldn't take yourself so seriously, then you won't take the wrong things personally ) My comments are addressed to all in general starting with your quote only as the introduction. (going off of your own words, i would absolutely love for you to prove me wrong and list all the 'programming oriented projects' you've done which would make you an expert on what max can and cannot do(even while the full capabilities of max are too infinite for any one person to know)). so maybe you were unable to come up with something useful for youself because you have the wrong idea about art. Programming IS art(if you're a digital artist, it is definitely part of your art). "I'd rather focus on art for the time being since I've spent so many years obsessing over programming oriented projects." If I see someone saying something I believe is absolutely wrong, I'll point it out. but now you have the info., get to work! it's actually not that hard once you have the DSP already worked out by Miller.) (PD is not that difficult and I can't give you the original Max patch I helped a company with because that's obviously a trade secret. I just did by mentioning implementation of MillerPuckette's Smeck in Max. "I would absolutely love you to prove me wrong and give us all a usable synth patch that we could rip apart for our own purposes." ![]() The advantage that instead of having to load a new set per song, or have a lot of instances of a synth, you simply use the same synths instances for each song and change the presets in play for each song."most of what alluded to" is not about poly~, it's about Miller Puckette having more knowledge than all of us combined and therefore proving that it is a matter of knowledge rather than system capability. When you are ready for song 2, launch scene 2 and all the patches will be teed up. For example, if you use used one scene per song in a live situation, you could launch the scene, then select each track (or set of tracks to arm and layer the synths as the song progressed. You could load up 8 of your favorite synths (or 8 instances of absynth), then use scene launches to tee up the patches per scene. One use case for a live situation is to use a grid controller like a Launchpad or APC 40 to launch the dummy clips to quickly change patches. Of course this technique will work with any VST or hardware synth that can receive a MIDI patch change. You can set a different progam number for each clip. In the example, the clip in focus is set to a value of “Pgm 3” which will select the third preset in the list. In the “Notes” section of the device interface, use the bottom field to set the program number.Create some dummy clips (a clip with no notes) by double clicking in a clip slot for the device holding Absynth.Drag sounds you would like in your preset change list to the “Program List”.If the “On” button is lit, Absynth listens for MIDI program changes. Click “Programs” if it’s not lit in green.To access this feature, click on the “Browser” tab. Click the Browser tab Absynth has a featured called “Program Lists”. ![]() In this article I illustrate how this works with step-by-step instructions on how to to use MIDI program change in Ableton Live to change presets in Native Instruments Absynth. ![]() You can also use it as a list of MIDI program changes. Absynth’s “Program List” is a great way to organize your favorite presets for studio or performance work. It’s finished with a light mascarpone buttercream made with fresh pureed strawberries. (Note 1) If you need to cook longer, cover with foil if it starts getting too golden. This recipe is a variation on the classic Texas sheet cake, made using a simple box of white cake mix, strawberry gelatin and chopped strawberries. Bake 50 minutes or until skewer inserted into centre comes out clean. On hot days in Colorado, we chill out with slices of this berries-and-cream dessert. who sells at Smorgasburg, Brooklyn’s food flea market. Smooth surface, then top with halved strawberries, cut face down. This Raindrop Cake is recreated by NYC-based chef Darren Wong. The cake should be eaten immediately otherwise the cakes melt into a puddle if left at room temperature for half an hour. So i made the Kinako and substituted the black sugar syrup with sugar cane jaggery syrup or you can replace with honey. I couldn’t find those authentic soya flour and black syrup. It is topped up with black sugar syrup (Kuromitsu) and roasted soya flour (Kinako) to put some taste in the bland cake. ![]() The moment you put in the mouth it melts into water and when you touch it ‘s simply jiggly. It looks like jello. It is so delicate and tastes flavorless but refreshing. There are lot of speculations that it is not a cake. Finally I got the right measurements and here it is – The Perfect Raindrop Cake. I experimented by adding more water, less agar or less water, more agar. I attempted 7 -8 times to make perfect raindrop cake. Both versions of the raindrop cake cost 8 and the kitchen. The kinako component anchors both dishes, providing a savoury note to balance the sweetness. It was really challenging for me to adapt the recipe. The flavour of the kuromitsu is like the caramel topping used on crme caramel and the jelly has a texture similar to the crme - which is confusing since it tastes just like sweet rainwater. Initially I tried with “China Grass” from the local store but it didn’t work. I ordered it online as it was not available in local stores in India. The most important ingredient is agar agar which is jelly-like substance, obtained from algae. When I saw the video on social media, I was like I have to make it anyway. ![]() However, you can use half-sphere (etc.This raindrop cake is super trendy and going viral on the web. I used a silicone spherical ice mold to make these drop completely round. If you want your drop to flop down like real water, add more, otherwise just do as package instruction then the shape will hold. Note that gelatin is not vegan, so if that is a concern, be sure to consider something else.Īs stated, the more water concentration the softer your drop will be. Just watch or maybe test with different levels of water to see which would give the best water shape. Now, if you can’t find any carrageenan, then agar powder, gelatin, and the like can be substituted as well. So if you can’t find the brand in a nearby store, try carrageenan and use the same or more water ratio as package instruction. This CoolAgar is formulated of Carrageenan, a gelling agent. Wong came up with the current recipe, which combines natural spring water. Most of the drops in Japan are made using CoolAgar with a larger ratio of water (to make it wiggly soft and clear). Wong, who is now selling the Raindrop Cake at Brooklyns trendy Smorgasburg. ![]() Use a toothpick to adjust shape/position or remove any bubble. Keep the unused jelly liquid warm over the smallest heat setting on your range top (this to prevent it coagulate). There are heaps of my favourite dessert recipes in there with a chapter on. Place bottom-half mold over an icy cool water bath. Of course, the type of jelly powder being used is what makes one drop different from another. When I first saw these raindrop cake (which in my opinion it is not a cake per. Raindrop cakes are not really cakes as such they are more of a clear jelly. Let the cake cool in the pans on wire racks for 10 minutes. Of course, white pure sugar or any nonbrown color sugar would work. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake layer comes out clean. To make sure the drop is clear, using distilled water is recommended. Stop reading, go download, wait the release with baited breath. Oh, and of course it rocks - as in an awesome homage to all things metal. Which if that holds out for the whole game, is something other designers should ponder. It's more or less a button masher, feeling a lot like a good variant of the God of War model with potentially more variety to the core and I think they've tossed out the QTE scenes, at least from the demo, for action which is more tightly integrated into the normal controls. But as much as it works as a story, the gameplay feels just as solid. Mountain Man Threads: Heavier clothing for colder weather with a full beard. Each of the outfits has an associated achievement/trophy, as noted in the 'Achievements/Trophies' section, below. There is no cost for any of the three outfits. I remember outings like XIII where it seemed like a cell shaded shooter and David Duchovny voicing seemed an excellent match, and then Duchovny comes across with all the emotion one gets from reading a cereal box.

You can only move from one objective to the other, so there’s no free roaming, but the maps are usually full of enemies, NPCs and shops you can visit. Since you are constantly finding or buying better gear, your character gets stronger as well, so by the end you can do a lot more with your allocated time.Īs for the interface, the top-down perspective is easy to get acquainted with, especially if you have played similar games before. This is achieved by setting up a camp and sleeping, and it is something you have to do on a regular basis in order to make progress. Whether you gather resources, explore a dungeon of fight an enemy, most actions sap your character’s strength, and you must rest in order to get back in shape. Rest to recover your strength and tackle more missions ![]() ![]() As for the actual gameplay, most things can be tackled with a simple click, although there is some complexity when it comes to the items and their use. The journey is pretty long, and your character moves from one mission to the other in order to acquire better gear and gain experience in the process. In this episode, you play the role of a young hunter raised by his uncle Brent, who goes on a quest to save the kingdom from a great evil. Instead, this is more about the journey than it is about the combat or the character stats, and the missions are way simpler to complete as well. In essence, the mechanics are much slower and forgiving, but not nearly as complex as in the hardcore classics. Hero of the Kingdom III is part of an RPG/strategy series that tries to go back to the roots in terms of gameplay mechanics, but not too much. The turn-based system was the most popular, as exemplified by classics like King’s Bounty or Heroes of the Might and Magic. Hence, strategy games required extensive thinking and planning instead of quick reactions like you are used to from titles like StarCraft II or various MOBAs. Back when video games were not quite as advanced from a technological point of view, developers had to use different methods in order to make complex gameplay mechanics.
The Building Envelope Campaign, in its inaugural year, is a collaborative effort between the U.S. The free event will be held virtually on July 27. The NC State Plant Sciences Building and the 13 other winners will be recognized in a DOE webinar about the Building Envelope Campaign’s inaugural year. We are very proud of our building and this award.” “It is an immense achievement for a building to house so much research and development while remaining energy efficient. ![]() “The NC State Plant Sciences Building will be home to tremendous amounts of research, data, and equipment that will help solve some of the world’s grandest agricultural challenges,” said Steve Lommel, Associate Dean for Research CALS. ![]() Department of Energy’s Building Envelope Campaign, currently in its inaugural year. The NC State Plant Sciences Building is one of only 14 buildings recognized through the U.S. “Our Building Envelope Campaign helps build awareness and encourages the development of more energy efficient building exteriors.” “The envelope accounts for approximately 30% of the primary energy consumed in commercial buildings,” said McLeod. Hayley McLeod, the Building Envelope Campaign Lead and a member of the Integrated Building Performance Group at the Department of Energy’s largest science and energy lab, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, says a building’s envelope is an overlooked source of energy savings. “A combination of efficient glass, external shading devices, polyisocyanurate foam insulation, air barrier materials, and other building elements helped us maximize energy efficiency through the building’s envelope,” Cherry said. “Knowing this, the design team worked to reduce energy use wherever else we could, including the building envelope.” “We were all aware going into this project that the plant sciences building would be energy-intensive, especially as we considered the air-conditioned greenhouses,” said Andrew Cherry, project architect at Flad, the architectural firm hired to help design the NC State Plant Sciences building. The building was designed to exceed efficiency by 20% over code thanks to the incorporation of emerging high-performance envelope technologies. The NC State Plant Sciences Building received the award for the energy efficiency of its envelope, or exterior. The award was publicly announced during the agency’s “Better Buildings, Better Plants Summit” on May 19. Department of Energy’s Better Buildings Building Envelope Campaign. Last week, the building was named an awardee in the Novel 20 category of the U.S. The NC State Plant Sciences Building, North Carolina’s new hub for next-generation research in the plant sciences, has become a nationally recognized hub for energy efficiency as well. ![]() The stick chisel with honeycomb lifter is one of the most needed tools in.

All pets need toys and activities to keep them from getting bored. Perhaps your dog needs an anxiety treatment. Maybe your cat needs a warm place to sleep.
