12/9/2023 0 Comments Medieval swords types![]() ![]() A longsword (also spelled as long sword or long-sword) is a type of European sword characterized as having a cruciform hilt with a grip for two-handed use (around 16 to 28 cm (6 to 11 in)) and a straight double-edged blade of around 85 to 110 cm (33 to 43 in), The "longsword" type exists in a morphological continuum with the medieval knightly sword and the Renaissance-era Zweihänder.Straight double-edged blades are often over 1 m to 1.2 m (40" to 48") length, and weigh typically between 1.2 and 2.4 kg (2½ to 5 lb), with light specimens just below 1 kg (2.2 lb), and heavy specimens just above 2 kg (4½ lb). ![]() Longswords have long cruciform hilts with grips over 10 to 15in length (providing room for two hands). The Longsword is a type of European sword used during the late medieval period, approximately 1350 to 1550 (with early and late use reaching into the 13th and 17th centuries, respectively).After the end of the medieval period, the arming sword develops into the early modern rapier. In the Late Medieval period (14th and 15th centuries), late forms of these swords continued to be used, but often as a sidearm, especially of the estoc type, now called "arming sword" and contrasting with the two-handed, heavier longsword. The high medieval sword of the Romanesque period (10th to 13th centuries) develops gradually from the Carolingian sword (spatha) of the 9th century. ![]() The type is frequently depicted in period artwork, and numerous examples have been preserved archaeologically. It was a straight, double-edged weapon with a single-handed cruciform hilt and a blade length of about 70 to 80 centimetres (28 to 31 in).

12/9/2023 0 Comments Blueharvester![]() ![]() Blue Harvest also collaborated with farmers and cooperatives to install simple coffee wastewater treatment infrastructure on 33 farms. The project has supported five coffee processing plants with water-saving technologies and improved 1,039 on-farm facilities. Impactīlue Harvest has convened a diverse and strategic network of more than 80 stakeholder organizations to conserve and protect watersheds where coffee is produced, including downstream communities that benefit from sustainable water resource protection. They take a holistic and systems level approach to improving not only the farmers but also the water systems of downstream communities. They understand the linkage between land management, environmental stewardship, economic livelihoods and how climate change is putting pressure on farmers and communities to either adapt or migrate. Why We PartnerĬRS does more than work with farmers on agriculture. On-farm side-by-side comparisons managed by 1,055 coffee farmers in four countries (El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua) showed that during the severe drought of 2018, WSA practices improved average productivity by 13% and average net income by 18% when compared with farms applying conventional practices. Research conducted by CRS and partners on a subset of coffee farms in Central America over four years demonstrates that, on average, Blue Harvest practices lead to increased yields, increased net incomes, and help mitigate the negative impacts of fluctuations in coffee market prices. They provide support to build the social and political processes required for integrated water resources management, and they engage with buyers who are willing to required coffee farmers and their organizations for quality coffees that improve natural resources by implementing the Blue Harvest approaches. They provide technical advice in watershed management, sustainable agriculture production (including coffee), and coffee milling processes that improve water efficiency and wastewater treatment.

Supports: Windows 11, Windows 10, Windows 8/8.It's not uncommon these days to have your PC bloat with tons of photos and images that after a certain time become unmanageable. The easiest and most convenient way these days is to archive your images in a cloud storage such as Drive from Google, Dropbox or tens of other image hosting sites that allow you to store, process and share your images with rest of the world. However, they all come with space or other limitations. Because of this, quite often many users prefer to retain them on own systems even if this means resizing or changing the resolution of the images to make them smaller. Simultaneously, one might even want to rename the images in a certain way and add watermarks. Doing this one image at a time is a laborious task and in such cases, a utility or tool that can process your images in a batch would come in most handy. Let's look at one such nimble application that stands out among the many image resizers out there and could help you achieve this effectively and efficiently. The FastStone Photo Resizer from FastStone Soft, a group which is involved in research and development of image processing tools for free and commercial use, is one such tool. This is a freeware utility that allows one to convert and resize your images, crop out areas not needed, change the resolution, change the orientation or rotate the images, rename images, change colour depth and add text or watermarks to tons of images at a time in batch mode using drag and drop operation. Some of the more advanced functions include salient features that allow sequential numbering and search and replace operations in the file names during batch renaming. ![]() This is handled with precision by this robust application which also supports folder and non-folder operations. Let's check some of the basic functionality provided by this photo resizer.

12/9/2023 0 Comments Thread up site![]() ![]() I received an email on July 7 th saying my bag was received. The package rerouted but it eventually ended up in the right place. I didn’t check the label I just trusted the instruction I got. Turns out the instructions were wrong the bag should have been sent to FedEx. The next morning, I drove to the post office and mailed the package like I was instructed to do. I took photographs of my stuff so that I remembered what I sent out. Ten days later I received the bad, I neatly folded the items and sealed up the bag. While I waited, I cleaned out my closet so I was ready when the bag came. I signed up on June 13 th and was notified it may take a few weeks for my bag to be sent due to shipping delays and COVID-19. I understand companies are going through unprecedented times due to Covid-19, but here is my experience. So please take this review with a grain of salt. ![]() ![]() You can request to have your unlisted items returned, but you get charged. They donate and/or upcycle the pieces they don’t want. ThredUP receives the bag and decides if they want to sell your pieces, then lists them on their site. I thought my heels would poke through the bag so I didn’t include them. Shoes are also great, so if you have that one pair of shoes you bought because they were so cute, only to realize you can only wear them for 1 hour before they hurt your feet, those are perfect to sell. The label is on the bag so you don’t pay to ship it. Once you fill the bag you drop it off at the shipper. Clothes must have the size/washing instruction tags, no rips, and no holes.

12/8/2023 0 Comments Native instruments maschine plus![]() The most important differences in the hardware are the ones you can’t see: the Atom quad-core processor, 4GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. You’ll need the included power supply for that, though USB power still works for controller mode. Also, if you were hoping that Maschine+ could run in standby mode with USB power, you’re out of luck. Sadly, they’re not touchscreens, though, I think they’re a little small for that to be useful anyway. The third iteration of Maschine provides a logical workspace with high-quality pads and knobs that give it a premium feel - even more so on the plus with its metal housing. The fact that it’s so similar to the MK3 is no bad thing. NI even includes a 64GB SD card in the box. Lastly, there’s the all-important SD card slot for storing your projects and samples along with 32GB onboard storage for expansion downloads. There are now two USB-A ports (along with the USB-B port for connecting to a PC) which allow you to add other interfaces or MIDI USB gear. ![]() You still have two inputs and two outputs (1/4-inch TRS), MIDI in and out, a pedal jack and a 1/4-inch headphone port. Even around the back, where all the connections are, there isn’t much of a difference. The two are nearly identical, bar the new metal finish and a few minor tweaks to accommodate the necessary computer-free functionality. If you’ve ever seen the Maschine MK3, then the Maschine+ will be familiar. And while I wouldn’t call Maschine+ “portable” in the traditional sense, you can bring this with you on the road and leave your laptop somewhere safe. Plus, computers can be unpredictable (especially in a live performance). Some feel that clicking a mouse staring at a screen isn't conducive to creativity. The idea is obvious: Getting rid of the PC is something many electronic musicians want to do. Maybe you could think of it as outboard gear, but with the UI running on a PC? But that doesn’t quite do the software side of it justice. ![]() But then there are plenty of software-specific controllers like Ableton’s Push or Korg’s MS 20 VST hardware. You could argue it’s desktop music-making software with a dedicated MIDI controller. Is it the all-in-one music production hardware many people (myself included) seek? Maybe, but what I can say for sure is that it’s an impressive, if not a slightly expensive attempt at merging desktop functionality with groovebox-style usability.įor those unfamiliar with Maschine, it’s a little hard to explain what it is without underselling it. It’s finally here, it’s called Maschine+, it costs $1,399 and it’s been on my desk for the last week or two. While this approach made it popular, it soon led many to want something ambitious: a standalone Maschine with the software built-in. ![]() The dedicated hardware-software combo was an instant hit with users looking for the tactile control of outboard gear with the flexibility (plugins) afforded by a desktop. It’s been over a decade since Native Instruments introduced the Maschine platform. ![]() 12/8/2023 0 Comments Fruit tart cake![]() ![]() Bake until lightly browned, 25-28 minutes.
