Use citra11/11/2022 ![]() ![]() But, if you freeze the juice in ice cube trays you end up with easy to thaw portions for use in dressing, granitas, soups, curries - basically any place where you can imagine a sunny citrus boost!Ĭitrus peel pastes are fragrant flavor blasts. Sometimes we just drink it, or use it over the coming days. Scrape any remaining pith from peel with the dull or “flip-side” of a knife. To do this, keep the peel flat agains the cutting board, and trim away from yourself. ![]() Some peelers work well at this stage, but I often just use a knife. Start with clean, dry citrus, and slice citrus from top to bottom in wide slabs. I basically have three moves (see below). Know that going in, and you’ll enjoy the process much more. There was a lot of it going on this week. There's more information (and so many good soups & salads) here. The recipe is in Super Natural Simple which will be out next month. It has a mix of citrus segments, peanuts, red onions, a few saffron threads and almond extract along with good olive oil. Citrus Ice Cubes: After peeling citrus and making pastes or syrups, all of the juice was frozen in ice cube trays for future use in drinks, granitas, soups, etc.Orange No-heat Syrup: Same process as the lemon syrup, but kept it to orange peel here.Meyer Lemon & Rose Geranium No-heat Syrup: I love the intensity of no-heat syrups, and made a thick, intensely flavored Meyer lemon syrup by massaging lots of lemon peel with sugar and rose geranium leaves.Most of the mandarins were simply peeled and popped into mouths, but a few have made it into my favorite citrus salad (I’ll highlight that down below).I use them to season and boost everything! From pastas and soups to rice bowls and roasted vegetable tacos. Citrus Peel Pastes: I also blended Meyer lemon, Eureka, and orange peels into a number of quick (unfermented) pastes, and froze them in single use quantities.Kosho is traditionally a spicy, fermented Japanese Yuzu paste, but because lemons are more plentiful here, I tend to use them. Kosho: I started a batch of Meyer lemon kosho. ![]() It has been a mix! I’ll include recipes down below for the pastes and syrups. I thought I’d start by talking through everything I’ve done with citrus in the past week. So here I am jotting down the ways I’ve been using it, saving it, and the citrus recipes I’ve been making all week. My dad’s neighbors generously dropped off a huge crate of Meyers, mandarins, oranges, and Eureka lemons the other day - a legit "bend with your knees" box. Especially if you can get your hands on it. Being surround with this much citrus is happy-making. Pomelos and grapefruits frame driveways, and trees impossibly heavy with oranges regularly warrant a double-take. You see front yard Meyer lemon trees groaning with yellow orbs. The abundance of homegrown citrus this time of year in Los Angeles is a peak reason I love being a Californian. ![]()

What can be done about improving latency? See these pages: Numbers over 1 millisecond (1,000,000 nanoseconds) mean the PC is not a good candidate for LinuxCNC, regardless of whether you use software stepping or not. If the numbers are 100 uS or more (100,000 nanoseconds), then the PC is not a good candidate for software stepping. If the Max Jitter is more like 30-50 microseconds, you can still get good results, but your maximum step rate might be a little disappointing, especially if you use microstepping or have very fine pitch leadscrews. So, what do the results mean? If your "Max Jitter" number is less than about 15-20 microseconds (15000-20000 nanoseconds), the computer should give very nice results with software stepping. ![]() ![]() If you want to add information to this page or add a new page, follow some BasicSteps. Results may vary by 1000 ns from one invocation to another (e.g., by a few microseconds). Note that the numbers reported in this test are extremely precise but not necessarily extremely reproducible. If you have a multi-cpu machine, it is helpful to report results with the isolcpus boot parameter set appropriately (see elsewhere in this wiki). Move around windows, surf the web, copy files, play music etc. Let the test run for at least 15 minutes (it has been suggested that the longer the better let it run for a day or overnight for instance) while you run glxgears or a similar application to stress the cpu. Latency-test comes with LinuxCNC, you can run it with 'latency-test' from the prompt. ![]()

Chrome citrix receiver11/10/2022 ![]() ![]() Otherwise, the custom virtual channel is not initialized with the launched session. Third-party Chrome app must register the custom virtual channel using the Virtual Channel SDK before launching a HDX app/desktop sessions. However, Citrix recommends you to use Google Admin Console. You can use any supported configuration methods. IDs of all the third-party Chrome apps and the virtual channel stream name must be set in the Receiver for Chrome configuration before launch of a session. Up to three client side virtual channels are supported where the virtual channel implementation of each virtual channel might be part of the same third-party Chrome app or different app. If virtual channel SDK is added as a part of non-background window, then virtual channel connection is established only when that window is active. Adding the Virtual Channel SDK in the background page ensures that the Virtual Channel is added to the session regardless of the third-party Chrome app running or not. Virtual Channel SDK is a JavaScript file that should be included in the third-party Chrome app preferably in the background page. In August 2018, Island Health launched a new website for physicians and medical staff called Medical Staff.Third-party Chrome app must be implemented to add a new virtual channel. Intranet quick linksĪn Island Health account is required to access these links.

Javascript replace11/10/2022 ![]() ![]() The following will be output to the web browser console log: Ye Want to Replace the First Uppercase Character You can use the replace() method to search for and replace the first occurrence ( ie: single match) of a regular expression pattern.įor example: var totn_string = 'We Want to Replace the First Uppercase Character' Ĭonsole.log(totn_string.replace(//, 'Y')) ![]() Next, we'll take a look at regular expressions. Regular Expression as the Search Expression (Single Match) As you can see, the replace() method returned the string 'TechOnTheNet is the best'. In this example, the replace() method performs a search for the first occurrence of the string 'great' and replaces it with the string 'the best'. ![]() The following will be output to the web browser console log: TechOnTheNet is the best We have written the output of the replace() method to the web browser console log, for demonstration purposes, to show what the replace() method returns. We have then invoked the replace() method of the totn_string to find and replace the first occurrence or match. In this example, we have declared a variable called totn_string that is assigned the string value of 'TechOnTheNet is great'. This method does not involve regular expression objects.įor example: var totn_string = 'TechOnTheNet is great' Ĭonsole.log(totn_string.replace('great', 'the best')) The simplest way to use the replace() method is to find and replace one string with another string. Let's take a look at an example of how to use the replace() method in JavaScript. Used to insert the string to the left of the matched substring Used to insert the string to the right of the matched substring Used to insert the substring from the last parenthesized match Used to insert the substring from a parenthesized match. Here are the ways that you can use the $ character: Value The $ character is a special character that is used in the replacement string to indicate that the value from the pattern match can be used as part of the replacement string. It is the replacement string or a function ( that returns a replacement string). Matches the preceding pattern at least n times, but not more than m times. Matches the preceding pattern at least n times. Matches the preceding pattern zero or one occurrence. Matches the preceding pattern one or more occurrences. ![]() Matches the preceding pattern zero or more occurrences. Matches one collation element that can be more than one character. Matches the nth subexpression found within ( ) before encountering \n. Matches at least m times, but no more than n times. Used to group expressions as a subexpression. Used to specify a nonmatching list where you are trying to match any character except for the ones in the list. Used to specify a matching list where you are trying to match any one of the characters in the list. Used like an "OR" to specify more than one alternative. If used with a match_parameter of 'm', it matches the end of a line anywhere within expression. If used with a match_parameter of 'm', it matches the start of a line anywhere within expression. As a RegExp object, it can be a combination of the following: Value It is either a string value or a RegExp object that will be searched for in string. In JavaScript, the syntax for the replace() method is: string.replace(search_expression, replacement) Parameters or Arguments search_expression ![]()

Ghost whisperer11/9/2022 ![]() Hence, they didn’t even get a chance to give it a proper closure. It was personally very tough – Love is a friend, the producers are friends, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus is someone who’s done very well for us.”īut by the time CBS pulled the plug on ‘Ghost Whisperer’, the cast and crew had finished filming for the fifth season. If we didn’t have the strength coming out of the development season, we might not have had the opportunity to do it.” She further added, “Ultimately, it’s all about ratings for the network – that’s where we have to continue to improve and succeed. The president of CBS Entertainment Nina Tassler offered further explanation on CBS’ decision, saying: “It’s sad, but shows don’t stay on the air forever. ![]() We continue our relationship with ABC Studios and look forward to developing many more successful projects together in the future.” We’ve had an incredible experience and owe a debt of gratitude to everyone involved. In fact, the last episodes of Season 5 hit a series low.Įxecutive producers Kim Moses and Ian Sander confirmed the news in a statement saying: “After five wonderful seasons and over 100 episodes, we are disappointed to announce Ghost Whisperer will not be returning for a sixth season. The show had done well but clearly its time was getting over. From season 4 to season 5, the ratings fell - and fell a lot. Just before the season 5 finale, CBS announced on that the series would not receive another renewal. All of the previous episodes are available to stream on CW Seed. After airing for 22 episodes, it concluded on May 21, 2010. ‘Ghost Whisperer’ season 5 premiered on September 25, 2009, on CBS. Ghost Whisperer Season 6: Renewed or Cancelled? And they still want to know if we will ever see a ‘Ghost Whisperer’ season 6. ![]() However, the numbers fell during season 5, garnering only around 7.5 million viewers, and a rating of 1.9/6 in the 18-49 demography.īut audiences loved the series, especially because of its theme and for the performance of its lead protagonist. The fourth season was branded as the most-watched show on Friday nights on CBS and it crossed 10 million viewers. It was renewed repeatedly and the fifth season was released in September 2009. During its run, the show was nominated for several prestigious awards and even won quite a few.

![]() The people who have that kind of home aren't going to be the people who are really doing it because they need the money. It's amazing that people allow filming in their houses at all. The furnishings were slightly overscale, sort of shabby chic.ĪD: Where were the houses used for filming located?īS: The beach house was in Sands Point, New York, and the mansion was in Old Brookville, New York. Their actual beach house was decorated in a much more traditional manner. It didn’t have a very good flow to the rooms in a way that you really want for the camera. It was traditional and had a Tudor influence, but it was much, much smaller. You need a bit of relief from the traditional.ĪD: Did you look at pictures of Jordan Belfort's actual homes?īS: Yes, we did, and we scouted his actual home. After a certain point, just so you don't get tired looking at the film, you have to do a bit of theme and variation of set. The house we ended up choosing looked sort of ’80s, with that planked siding. ![]() The last office attempted to look more dignified, even though obviously they were anything but dignified.īS: For practical reasons, we were not looking in the Hamptons. We embraced the teal that was already there and added some glass blocks to make it look more overtly of the period. I decided that it would be a good contrast to the eventual handsome color palette of the last office. We scouted a location that probably had been renovated in the ’80s, and some of the door frames were powder-coated anodized aluminum, and some of it was teal already. Again, they weren’t completely altering the space to suit their own purposes. Slowly that stuff moves out and we filled it up with desks.ĪD: How did things change when the firm moved to the city?īS: It was a little harder to say what the difference between the second-to-last Stratton Oakmont or Stratton Oakmont 2, as we called it, and Stratton Oakmont 3. There was even a car up on blocks without its wheels. If you look in the background in the first scene, there are racks that still have equipment, tires, fan belts, and those kinds of things on them. We had a location that we thought was pretty great. It's not something you’d pick up in the film, but the flooring was different on the opposite side of the room, because they used to be different stores.ĪD: What about the auto body shop turned brokerage?īS: The body shop takes care of itself as written in the script. We had two retail spaces that were combined. They make a few changes as they go along and leave certain things. BS: I had designed The Sopranos for many years, so I was familiar with what I refer to as the ”train wreck school of design.” When it's not a very upscale company, they don't go in and gut the space. Through some fancy financial wrangling and hard sells, Belfort and his buddies get filthy rich in a hurry, quickly becoming the sort of vulgar. Scorsese tells the same story, though this time it's set in the 1990s, when Belfort founded his brokerage (which he named Stratton Oakmont largely because it sounds posh) after getting hooked on the Wall Street high life. A heck of a hangover is in store for everyone. That all comes crashing down, because it simply can't last. Anderson's movie told the story of a working class boy named Eddie Adams who re-christens himself Dirk Diggler and rises to the top of an industry built on giving people what they want: the illusion of being wanted, the feeling of being in control, the fulfillment of a base desire. ![]() With Wolf, things come full circle-it's this film that's got everything in common with Boogie Nights. But now there's an actual Scorsese movie out, The Wolf of Wall Street, in which Leonardo DiCaprio plays Jordan Belfort, a real-life stockbroker who lives the very high life in the 1990s while committing securities fraud and the sorts of (mostly) white-collar crimes that land you in federal prison. ![]() Some also said American Hustle felt like it was directed by Martin Scorsese. You can see the point, but where Boogie Nights careens wildly and joyously off its rails, American Hustle plods here and there ( here's my review). They're alike mostly aesthetically-outlandish costumes, period music, that sort of thing. Anderson's 1997 movie about the pre-AIDS heyday and subsequent fall of the pornography industry in the 1970s. ![]() This month American Hustle, based on the Abscam scandal of the 1970s, garnered comparisons to Boogie Nights, P.T. ![]() |
