Quality of service enhancement of mobile adhoc networks using priority aware mechanism in AODV protocol. Optimize routing protocol overheads in MANETs: Challenges and solutions: A review paper. Wireless Personal CommunicationsĪhlam, H. When comparing the three QoS metrics, it is found that AODV performs much better than DSDV. It is also examined that the stable network gives better performance in comparison to unstable network for different parameters for both the routing protocols. It has been determined that the Rectangular-3D position allocator performs better in static network for different values of parameters like number of nodes, packet size, simulation time and simulation area with QoS parameters like PDR, delay, and throughput for both AODV and DSDV routing protocols. We have done simulation analysis with the proposed allocator with the Random Box position allocator in static network and dynamic (stable and unstable) network on routing protocols AODV and DSDV by considering throughput, delay, and PDR as the QoS metrics. We have designed and implemented Rectangular-3D Position Allocator for NS-3 using the concept of existing Grid Position Allocator. This paper gives a brief overview about the existing position allocators used for simulation in NS-3. For highly dynamic environment, it is advisable to use appropriate mobility model along with the position allocator. The network's performance is influenced by the environment type as well as a proper routing protocol, mobility model, and position allocators. It is important to use suitable position allocator to allocate the nodes in MANET. Nodes are highly mobile and dynamic which distresses the QoS in MANET. Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) provides transmission of data between the nodes in an infrastructure less atmosphere.

4/4/2023 0 Comments Iconographer at workThe world is in need of light, and the icon a torch burning in the darkness. I truly believe that we need iconography today more than ever. God willing, I will continue to paint icons and teach others to paint icons as well. May the Lord continue to bring to completion the good work He began in me. He knew that in my soul there was an iconographer who was buried under layers of ambition and pride. I have seen countless students become devoted to the icon after a single workshop. I have seen it touch not only my own life, but the lives of others as well. While I still create contemporary works of sacred art, iconography is increasingly becoming my focal concern. Currently I am preparing to publish several works on iconography, and I am happy. Further confirmation that God called me to be an iconographer. I am an iconographer! It seems no matter how hard I tried to run the other way, over and over God called me back to iconography I have even received a grant from the NJ Council on the Arts to continue the study of iconography. Iconology is a method of interpretation in cultural history and the history of the visual arts used by Aby Warburg, Erwin Panofsky and their followers that uncovers the cultural, social, and historical background of themes and subjects in the visual arts. Typical of how God works however, here I am, several years later exactly where I told God I did not want to be. I remember at one point emerging from my studio and shouting, “Lord make me a great artist, but NOT an iconographer!” I literally shouted this prayer in the hallway right outside my art studio and I meant it. In fact, the longer I apprenticed with this Greek iconographer, the less and less interested I became in iconography. I was more interested in the contemporary sacred arts I had created a series of small abstract paintings called the Hexameron, and was in the process of studying figurative drawing and painting, preparing to create Bible illustrations. While I had some interest in iconography, at that time, I didn’t want to actually become one. Several years ago as I was finishing up my Bachelors degree in art, I was apprenticing with an iconographer from Greece. Or, ‘Be careful what you tell God NOT to do.’ 4/3/2023 0 Comments Buildbox androidWindows OS versions before the Windows 10 Pro don’t offer any password protection options. How to Password Protect a Folder in Windows 10 Otherwise, this encryption option will be unavailable. The drive where the drives are located must be formatted as NTFS. However, we should note that the option “Encrypt contents for secure data” isn’t available if you’re using the Windows Home OS version, as this OS doesn’t support this feature.Īdditionally, if you’re still having trouble setting up folder encryption and aren’t using a Home OS version, make sure to double-check your folder’s location. This simple four-step guide will help you encrypt any files and folders you want to keep safe and private. Step 4. Tick the “Encrypt contents for secure data” box and click on “OK” on both windows. After the new window pops up, navigate to the “General” tab and click on the “Advanced” button in the bottom right corner of the window. Right-click on it and select the option “Properties”. Choose the folder or file you want to encrypt. With that in mind, here’s how to encrypt a folder in Windows 10: To help you out, we’ve drafted straightforward step-by-step guides for both forms, starting with the latter type of protection. Now that you understand the difference between password protection and password encryption, you can choose which form of protection suits you better. This is why password protection is referred to as a type of knowledge-based authentication. Only those with the right password can access the files.
4/3/2023 0 Comments Amazing audio player skinsYou can organize tracks by album, artists, genre of any other metadata, and use the built-in search tool to find the song you want. Managing your music is easy – just drag files and directories into the Media Library, and VLC Media Player will sort them all into folders. VLC can also stream music from a local network or the internet, including internet radio stations, which you can set up as a playlist for quick access. Open source VLC Media Player is best known for its video-handling chops, but it's also a superb music manager that can play almost any format without installing any additional codecs – and convert between them, too. Custom layouts can be saved as themes for future use, and you can experiment with different settings using a built-in scratchbox.Īll in all, foobar2000 is an extremely lightweight and adaptable option that suits smaller music libraries. Modules include album art, search box, playlist manager and various visualizations, with optional tabs for easier navigation. Rather than flashy skins, foobar2000 features a customizable modular interface that gives you the information you want in a format that's convenient for you. If you encounter a file that it can't open, extra codecs are available as user-created plugins, which are installed via the Preferences menu. foobar2000's library doesn't update in real time, but it can detect changes and remove dead links.įoobar2000 supports all common audio formats, and includes a Quick Convert tool with various presets and options for creating your own profiles. This free music player will look up metadata for untagged tracks when you rip an audio CD, and can identify and erase duplicated tracks. None are essential, but their absence pushes MediaMonkey to third place.įoobar2000's advanced tagging tool makes light work of cleaning up a messy library, with options including batch processing, automatic metadata completion and track numbering, and copying and pasting data between fields. The paid-for Gold version includes a party mode that locks the interface to prevent guests messing with your carefully curated playlist, built-in conversion for TVs and mobile devices, and MP3 encoding for ripped CDs. It works well, but if you want full manual control you'll need a third-party plugin (opens in new tab).Īs a slightly trimmed-down version of a premium product, MediaMonkey's interface has a little more gloss than its open-source competitors, but at the expense of some features. MediaMonkey arranges your music library in a logical hierarchy, and its File Monitor ensures everything is kept up to date as you add, edit and remove files. You can also tag music during playback, which is a great option that avoids the need to preview snippets of tracks before labelling them with a mood or genre to generate playlists. It identifies tracks with missing metadata and searches for the information online, and like MusicBee, its superb tagging tool lets you tag files using industry-standard formats. MediaMonkey plays and organizes both music and video, and unlike some dual-purpose media players, it does an excellent job of both. It's not as feature-filled as MusicBee, but its thoughtful design and carefully curated feature-set earn this free music player a respectable second place. The app also features some unusual built-in tools, including an alarm clock function that starts playing at a certain time, a wind-down setting that shuts down your PC at the end of a playlist, and a voice remover for making your own karaoke tracks. Some of the highlights are a YouTube extension that lets you build playlists from multiple videos, an add-on for streaming music from SoundCloud (opens in new tab), and an extension for controlling the player remotely (opens in new tab). By contrast, AIMP's plugins include some real gems. (opens in new tab) Most music player extensions are extra visualizations and skins that, although cool, have little practical use. Your AIMP library can be built using files from multiple directories and ripped from CDs, with automatic track numbering and tag filling to help you get it in shape.ĪIMP supports a huge number of formats, and additional encoders are available as user-created add-ons. Like all the best free music players, AIMP makes organizing your songs a breeze – even if your collection is currently a sprawling mess of tracks in different formats and locations, with incomplete or missing metadata. 4/3/2023 0 Comments Lower jaw neck diagramsAt its junction with the posterior border is the angle of the mandible, which may be either inverted or everted and is marked by rough, oblique ridges on each side, for the attachment of the masseter laterally, and the medial pterygoid muscle medially the stylomandibular ligament is attached to the angle between these muscles.
4/3/2023 0 Comments Iphone cant find splashid safeThis default option is found in the Options dialog. Don’t feel bad if you like short passwords. Added to the Set Password dialog and the Password Generator. Password hints can be a little too easy sometimes, so first you’ll have to answer one of the security questions of your choosing before the hint is revealed. This US government approved encryption standard has been added on top of the already powerful Blowfish algorithm. More information can be found on the site. That, to my mind, makes it worth considering. Then again, for a just under $30 you now have the ability to input information on your computer and securely take it with you when you’re out and about. In order to have the ability to sync with your computer you need to not only purchase the application for $9.95 but the desktop version, as well at a cost of $19.95. Add to that the fact that both the iPhone and the idesktop applications recently underwent significant updates and the result, at least for me, is an application that is easier to use than before and, with the inclusion of the desktop application, easier than ever. Splash ID, on the other hand, offers a desktop application that not only syncs but syncs well. They do have a beta of a web-based solution but it is still in closed Beta. Yes, it does sync with PCs but this still isn’t an option for those of us who use Macs. I waited a year for eWallet to offer a solution that allows me to sync with my Mac and I’m still waiting. Second, there is a key feature that SplashID has that its competitor doesn’t. That noted, why is it that I’m thinking of moving to SplashID? Two main reasons - First, the application is now up to version 5 and is vastly improved. That ultimately determined the choice for me. While the bread and butter of programs like this is securing and accessing data, the interface makes a huge difference in the ease and “enjoyment” of doing so. The bottom line for me was that it just felt more polished and “Mac like” to me. In my initial evaluation of the applications I ultimately determined that, at least for me, eWallet was my application of choice. As I wrote in my initial post - With so much in common “Sounds like a toss-up right? Not so fast.” The two applications are SplashData’s SplashID and ilium Software’s eWallet. And both have been revised a number of times since their initial release. Both offer the flexibility to organize and protect a wide-range of information. Both protect your data with a high level of encryption. Both come from reputable, long time, mobile application manufacturers. Both are applications I used on Windows mobile. A while back I took a look at two electronic wallet programs that are available for the iPhone. 4/3/2023 0 Comments 30 min timerFor example, for me, each section of this article is getting assigned one or two 25-minute chunks. Bigger tasks should be split into smaller chunks. Pick a task that will take roughly 25-minutes to accomplish. The basic process is normally described as something like this:ĭecide what you're going to do. Over the past few decades, the technique has become more popular. Since the Italian for tomato is "pomodoro" he called his system the Pomodoro Technique after the original little tomato timer. And it helped-he was instantly more productive, at least when the timer was running.Īfter a bit of tweaking, testing, and refining, Cirillo settled on 25 minutes of work followed by a 5-minute break, repeated four times, as the best balance for him. Cirillo started by setting it for 10 minutes and trying to just work for the 10 minutes until the timer rang. Inspiration came from a small tomato-shaped kitchen timer. He kept getting distracted and losing focus, so he went looking for a way to get back on track. A 25-minute work session is long enough that you can stay engaged and make real progress, without feeling like a grind, while the 5-minute breaks, which never feel far off, give you a chance to freely check Twitter or look at some emails without disrupting your work.įrancesco Cirillo developed the Pomodoro Technique in the 1980s when he was in college in Italy and struggling to study. What makes the Pomodoro Technique so easy to implement is how short the blocks are. I'm using it right now to write this article. As a professional writer, it's the tool I bust out whenever I need to hit a deadline or just get work done without dawdling. While it didn't single-handedly get me through my college degree, it helped me get better grades with less effort. I've used the Pomodoro Technique (or variations on it that we'll look at later) for more than a decade. After that, you take a 15- to 30-minute break, depending on how you feel. You set a timer for 25 minutes, work until it's up, then take a 5-minute break-and repeat the whole process three more times. The Pomodoro Technique sounds basic, but it really works. Toggl Track for combining Pomodoro with time-tracking Marinara Timer for a shareable web-based Pomodoro timer Pomodor for a simple web-based Pomodoro timer So, let's look at the best Pomodoro timers. It saves you the hassle of winding up a manual timer or constantly checking the clock. While any timer (or timer app) will work for the Pomodoro Technique, a dedicated Pomodoro app can make the already simple technique even simpler by automatically alternating between work and break periods. 4/3/2023 0 Comments Candies with gelatinBoth the texture and the amount of time it takes the candy to dissolve in the mouth can be controlled by the amount of gelatin used in a recipe. However, since these gels are therm oreversible, which means they get thinner as they are heated, gummy candies have a “melt in the mouth” characteristic. When used at an appropriate concentration, the gels take on the texture of the chewy, gummy candy. Step 2: Prepare the different flavored/colored vegan gummies. This is a protein derived from animal tissue that forms thick solutions or gels when placed in water. The main ingredient responsible for the candy’s unique, gummy characteristics is gelatin. Here, what distinguishes AVEREST FOOD AND SWEET is that it uses all ingredients in all halal products and we have halal certificates. The primary ingredients include water, gelatin, sweeteners, flavors, and colors. By blending together different ingredients, they can control the various characteristics of gummy candy, such as texture, taste, and appearance. Gummy candy recipes are typically developed by experienced food technologists and chemists. Because of its nature, it can be molded into literally thousands of shapes, for example, we have in AVEREST food and sweet more than 150 deferent shapes making it one of the most versatile confection products ever.įirst developed in Germany in the early 1900s, it gained great popularity in the United States during the 1980s. While it can be used as a replacement the final result will be very very different.Gummy candy is a unique candy composed of gelatin, sweeteners, flavorings, and colorings. Agar gummies will also have a brittle texture and less flavor release compared to gelatin. The texture of agar is not close to the texture of gelatin. Gummies made with super agar will melt at a much higher temperature compared to gummies made with gelatin. The super agar will need to be mixed into the sugar or dry ingredients in the recipe prior to heating. For a gummy like texture we suggest using between 2-4% of the total weight of the recipe. There is no exact conversion from gelatin by weight to agar. To use super agar in place of gelatin you will need to change the method of the recipe. Super agar is a much stronger form of agar compared to most agar agar products on the market. An excellent gelling agent and thickener in many processed foods, agar agar forms gels at 88 F and does not melt below 136 F. Also known as kanten, agar agar is derived from a bright red sea vegetable. Super agar is a highly refined form of agar extracted from the Gracilaria species of red seaweed and is a popular gelatin-substitute for vegan applications. When replacing gelatin with instagel follow the guide belowĤg Instagel® dissolved in 6 times its weight of water = 1 soaked gelatin sheet or about 2g of dry powder gelatin that has been soaked. Because of this, the finished product may be consumed much sooner than would be the case with traditional gelatin, which requires a longer cooling period. And because there is no heat involved in the preparation, it will immediately impact the viscosity, thickening or air entrapment of the preparation. It has exactly the same textural properties as traditional gelatin, which means that the unique melt-in-the-mouth effect, texture and mouth-feel remain unsurpassed.Ĭold soluble gelatin will start dissolving as soon as it comes into contact with a cold liquid (water, milk, fruit juice, etc.). Instagel®, cold soluble gelatin, solves this problem. And in some cases, a heating stage will actually negatively impact the desired result. There are applications where the heating stage required to dissolve traditional gelatin complicates the processing or preparation of a recipe. It is especially well suited for dessert preparations and the perfect ingredient for modernist cocktails. Instagel® is a quick and convenient alternative to traditional gelatin that saves time, labor and equipment. It is not appropriate for vegan, kosher or halal dishes.Ĭlick Here to Purchase Powdered Gelatin Instagel® Cold Set Gelatin PerfectaGel is made of 100% Grade “A” Collagen from Pork. You can just count sheets rather than weighing out powder and there is no chance of undissolved granules. Professional chefs prefer leaf/sheet gelatin because it makes a clearer product with purer flavor and is easier to use. It is unflavored and can be used in both sweet and savory dishes. It is the only Platinum Grade gelatin available in the US. PerfectaGel is Super Premium Leaf Gelatin made in Germany. The clarity of the gel, the flavor and the weight of the sheet are all that differs. This works for all the sheets you see here. For example one sheet of platinum will gel the same as one sheet of titanium. When replacing one type sheet gelatin with anotherĮach sheet of sheet gelatin is measured to be the same gelling equivalent as another. 4/3/2023 0 Comments Print windowIf you are looking for more useful computer software programs, you can find MiniTool Partition Wizard, MiniTool ShadowMaker, MiniTool Video Repair, MiniTool MovieMaker, MiniTool Video Converter, and more from MiniTool Software official website.Screenshot Deluxe is the ultimate software for capturing, editing and sharing screenshots.

It worked and I stopped having a cereal glut.Listen up, everyone: we know you all have questions, so let’s talk about the terms guys and you guys. I started volunteering at the local library instead. I had 2 shelves full of boxes of cereal!!! (For 2 people?) I’d come back from the market and went to put a box of cereal in our small closet pantry, and there was NO room. I figured out one day that my “socialization” was apparently the supermarket. And, since I’m a city kid and had never lived so far out before, it was bizarre. When we first moved to New England, I didn’t know a soul and lived at the end of a 2,000 foot driveway in the midst of a 12 acre piece. You can turn your kitchen excess into Christmas presents. Also, use an ice pick or skewer to predrill the holes where the cloves go. I’ve never seen it for sale, have you?īiggest problem I had with doing this was that it’s time consuming. All the recipes I’ve ever seen say to use orris root powder, which is imaginary as far as I’m concerned. Why not make pomanders with them? I did this when I found some cheap lemons last winter. Excuse me but my water is ready for my morning tea. I would have more like mint and other green tea flavors but I ran out of some because I drink tea so much. Also in the cabinet is Celestial Seasonings Tuscany Orange Spice(have to order that from Amazon), Peach Apricot Honeybush, Wild Berry Zinger, Bigelow Pomegranate Pizazz, Organic Cold Care Winter Season Tea Just for Kids, and one sample of Stash Earl Grey Black Tea.

I wanna hear! Now is the time to confess! To cleanse your soul! To bare your deep, dark secrets! Or make me feel better or something…. This was, of course, a completely scientific whole cloves comparison test involving removal of exactly one whole clove from each jar. However, at this time, I can tell you that the Sauer’s whole cloves are larger than Spice Island whole cloves. Look, four different brands! I could do a whole cloves brand comparison!Įxcept two of the jars aren’t even opened yet and I’d hate to take off the seals just to compare whole cloves. At least I’ll be able to find them.Ĭlearly, I’m an equal opportunity whole cloves shopper. They’re a staple! Then I buy another jar and it promptly makes its way to the back of a cabinet, and next time I’m looking for whole cloves, I run out and buy some more… At this rate, I’ll need an entire shelf devoted to whole cloves soon. You never know when you’re going to need whole cloves. (Almost empty, which is how I uncovered all these jars of whole cloves–I was looking to see if I had more ground cloves.) Maybe this whole cloves surplus is because I use whole cloves so sporadically that they end up shoved to the backs of shelves and I think– Oh no! I’m out of whole cloves! Must. But I have only one (small!) jar of ground cloves. WHY do I have so many jars of whole cloves? You know what I use far more often than whole cloves? |
