Meander film review11/21/2023 ![]() It also forces the audience to feel every scrape and cut-the visceral progression of Lisa through these pipes and rooms is the basis of the entire movie. Each room is weirdly lit, almost in a mysterious way, and this is before the hugely effective (and terrifying) creature drops down into the rooms and begins its pursuit of Lisa. The intimate setting shows off stylish camera technique and directorial flourishes. Why has she been brought here? What is the purpose behind this strange series of tests she must endure? The only thing Lisa can do is decipher the clues to find her way out of this impossible situation. She starts seeing visions of her daughter in this strange place. ![]() There’s nothing after this.” When someone on the radio mentions a killer who matches her driver’s description, Lisa has nary a second of reaction time… then, she wakes up trapped in a tiny industrial-style room with a glowing bracelet attached to her wrist that is counting down.Ĭrawling through the small space, parts of the room slide away, revealing themselves as needed for Lisa’s progression. Things take a turn for the weird when she talks about her desire to see her daughter again, and he simply responds “we’re all alone, all the time. She is a waitress from France, and he is a nightwatchman. Lisa (Gaia Weiss) catches a ride with a random stranger. It is a horror puzzle box that will keep you hooked till the very end, lovingly crafted by writer/director Mathieu Turi. In good company with films like Cube and this year’s intense sci-fi thriller Oygen, Meander takes a small-scale setting and seasons it with disturbing imagery, shifting panels, claustrophobia, and decaying flesh.

Amish macaroni salad walmart11/21/2023 ![]() While you wait for the water, to boil, whisk together the dressing and prep the vegetables. That’s because if you salt it first then get distracted, the water will reduce and become too salty. I personally don’t salt the water until after it boils and before adding the pasta. Making the best Amish Macaroni Salad is easy! First, start boiling your water for the pasta. You can certainly substitute Miracle Whip, but you will need to taste and adjust the dressing accordingly, likely less sugar. It’s also not as sweet, which affects the amount of sugar used. This recipe has been developed using real mayo which has a different (better) taste. Miracle Whip is different than mayo because it has less vegetable oil and isn’t qualified to be called mayonnaise (hence it’s called salad dressing). Onion: Adds a bit of a bite to your macaroni salad to balance out the sweetnessĬan I substitute Miracle Whip for mayonnaise?. ![]() I personally don’t like celery, so I opted for bell pepper instead. Bell pepper: Traditionally most macaroni salads use celery.Paprika: Adds a bit of a smoky kick plus some color.Vinegar: Helps balance the richness of the pasta salad.Yellow mustard: What makes Amish macaroni salad special is its use of acidic yellow mustard, which helps cut through the fat.It really comes down to how sweet your mayo (or Miracle Whip) is. Sugar: Some people think the sweetness is the correct amount while others said to cut back next time.Mayonnaise: Use real mayo for best results but if you prefer to use Miracle Whip, read below on how to adjust for that.You can also use farfalle (bow tie pasta). Elbow macaroni: Macaroni is most often used because its shape holds the dressing perfectly. ![]() The ingredients for this Amish Macaroni Salad recipe are: However, Amish macaroni salad has a sweet and tangy dressing thanks to the yellow mustard and vinegar added to it. The difference between Amish macaroni salad and regular macaroni salad is in the dressing.īoth versions use cooked pasta, hard boiled eggs, and a creamy mayonnaise dressing. Cook the pasta, whisk together the dressing, toss, and done.Īnd since typically macaroni salad makes tons of serving, I made small batch pasta salad, which makes about 4 servings or so. Now I make my own Amish macaroni salad recipe, which is really easy to do. I have no clue if it’s only PA Walmarts or if all Walmarts sell it, but their macaroni salad is based off of an Amish recipe. I have grown up eating this from the Walmart deli. If there is one thing I’m glad they invented, it’s their food, including their Amish Potato Salad and Amish Macaroni Salad.Īmish macaroni salad? What is that, you ask. However, I have seen Pennsylvania Dutch near where I went to college and at the zoo on the carousel. Pittsburgh’s side of the state isn’t really Amish country it’s more towards the Lancaster area. When I was in Ireland back in 2007, I learned the first thing people think of when I tell them I’m from Pennsylvania is the Amish.Įven when I was at Kate Voegele’s concert, her opening act was amazed she saw Amish people. ![]()

Balloon garland ideas11/20/2023 ![]() For this balloon garland, I wanted some larger balloons near the bottom (floor) and near the top – I used a total of four 24 inch balloons for that! Start by inflating all of those balloons! I like to blow them all up so I can actually see how big each of the balloons are, what they look like inflated, etc.I’ve never used one like this because I like to customize how close together my balloons are, but this kit looks like it would be really handy! I may try it next time. command hooks are a really great option!Īnother option is to use balloon tape strip – it’s basically a strip that has holes in it to push the balloons through (instead of using a plastic string). BUT if you’re hanging yours somewhere where there is not a fixture etc. Command hooks – optional! I secured this particular balloon garland to a dining chair on the floor and our light fixture above our dining table.The best type to use is one that you can just puncture through the end of the balloon to string it on, but if it’s not heavy-duty enough to do that, you can just use scissors to poke a tiny hole and then insert the plastic string! I used one like this. Thick plastic string – I’ve used a couple different kinds of plastic string to put my balloons together.Air hose attachment kit – this is the one we have. ![]() I haven’t ever gone this route, but it has a lot of great reviews! If you don’t want to buy an air compressor, there is the option of using an electric portable balloon inflator. If you’re going to make several balloon garlands, buying your own air compressor is the way to go! You’ll save so much money (and time!). AND if you’re only going to use it on balloon arches, consider the fact that hiring someone to create a balloon arch for you can be REALLY expensive. This makes creating your balloon garland SO much faster – you can blow one balloon up in seconds! Note: An air compressor is not inexpensive but they can be used a lot of different ways.

Unity cross platform application11/20/2023 ![]() You don't know anyone who's faced issues yet. > - I don't know of any business doing general purpose commercial applications that has faced any issues with that. There's similar results at the US federal level. See: ĮU: According to the first google result, by Septemall websites and mobile apps must be accessible to everyone, have a public accessibility policy, provide a feedback mechanism for users to report inaccessible content and provide a link to the enforcement procedure:Ĭalifornia (govt): As of July 2019 all websites made by the state of california must be accessible. And you can tweak the screen reader output the same way you would a website. Electron gives you basic out-of-the-box crossplatform support for accessibility, just like chrome. > - Using Electron does not give you accessibility in any way. With something like godot, you might have to rewrite the entire GUI to get accessibility working properly. And if you find you need to add proper accessibility to a web or native app, you can. Screen readers can still (badly) work on web sites that haven't been made with accessibility in mind. > - Almost no one does accessibility properly in web apps. Maybe what the community needs is a real-world application which would benefit from these accessibility features to help drive adoption and development. Because for as many applications that wouldn't benefit from this approach, there are as many that would. If anything we need to keep doing this and revisiting it over and again and keep improving it, testing it, giving feedback, contributing. And it's obvious that people in the community care and are both asking for it and working on it. ![]() Here's what I think is the current tracking ticket: Īccessibility isn't a feature of Godot.yet, but it's obviously something that's important for mainstream adoption of serious software, especially non-audio-visual experience software. Their stance has evolved dramatically over time, but they appear to be putting real effort into improving the situation. It's an active topic, spanning multiple tickets over years. I went checking and found a long history of discussion about accessibility in Godot's GUI toolkit (because the Godot editor is built in the Godot engine). One nit to pick Electron is just HTML/CSS/JS and accessibility can be as good or bad as any other website.Īs for the rest, I'm frustrated because you're partially right but also kinda defeatist and that makes me sad. Of course, this applies not just to Godot, but to any GUI tool which doesn't implement accessibility properly (including those that theoretically work on the web, but use canvas instead of DOM rendering). This might sound very harsh, but it's important to get this right early, as one bad decision here is usually irreversible. This is even true about internal tools, as there are laws mandating accessibility of the tools used at the workplace, and you never know when a blind person gets hired for a job they theoretically should be able to perform. If you choose Godot, you will need to rewrite the whole thing from the ground, which might kill your business, or risk fines and litigation, which might also kill your business. If you choose Electron, WX or even QT, some minor tweaks will usually be enough to make it right. Even if you don't really focus on accessibility at this point, you always want to keep your options open, in case the law forces you to. ![]() There are some laws mandating accessibility, and more laws are being passed, for example in the EU. Some people think blind people bring too little profit to care, but this is wrong for one single reason. Godot doesn't display native widgets, so it has no support for accessibility, for example to screen readers and blind users. If you want to use this in a business, either for an internal tool or for an application you sell, this is a horrible idea.

Maple leafs news11/20/2023 ![]() You hate to pine for Kyle Dubas when the new guy hasn’t even done anything yet, but firing him was so obviously a stupid thing to do, and Treliving is just not an inspired choice. What are the Toronto Maple Leafs even thinking? If any of the latest rumours are true (O’Reilly, Sanheim, Hanifin, Kerfoot) then Brad Treliving is really more of an Oates than a Hall. I’m already prepared to complain about signing Luke Schenn the AHL Player, and Ryan O’Reilly the most overrated performer since the Bryan Adams (I don’t care if he’s Canadian, he’s the worst). This is the kind of feeling you get when you hear a Morrissey song in a commercial. This is the kind of dispiriting news that you feel when you find out that David Lee Roth is going solo. You absolutely do not need to bring back David frigging Kampf. Benn suffered a groin injury in a preseason game against the Montreal Canadiens. Yes, keep your superstars, but for the love of John Oates’ moustache, what are the Toronto Maple Leafs thinking? In other injury news, the Maple Leafs’ removed defenseman Jordie Benn from the injured reserve list yesterday. 23, 1993 and became just the seventh player in NHL history to have 15 shots on goal in a game. Look, I’m not suggesting anyone re-record their greatest hits with Ceelo Green, but Treliving has got to mix it up. Matthews tied Dave Andreychuks Maple Leafs record for shots on goal in a game originally set on Mar. Neither of these kisses should be anyone’s lists. The guy could be the best defensive player alive (and it’s not impossible that he is) but since he doesn’t score he has to be perfect to be effective, and that isn’t possible.ĭavid Kampf might be good, I just don’t care at this pointīoth players will block out exciting young Marlies from promotion, and I don’t have any problem saying that I’m dissatisfied with this development. His recent stint with the Tampa Bay Lightning saw him post. He’s a consistent scorer who hit 40 goals last season. He’s a 38-year-old veteran with 16 years of NHL experience. In this edition of Toronto Maple Leafs News & Rumors, I’ll first take a look at William Nylander’s dilemma with the team. Kampf appears to be more of a focus for the Leafs at this point.Īll David Kampf does is not score. The Maple Leafs are rumoured to be interested in goaltender Brian Elliott. Obviously, time is running out before the UFA market opens. Toronto is circling around forwards Alex Kerfoot and David Kampf. |
