But it does not take one long to realise just how exquisite a gemstone the Tsavorite is. With low mining and production of faceted Tsavorites, it is difficult to swarm the commercial mainstream jewellery market with Tsavorites simply because there just isn’t enough to go around. The “downside” of the Tsavorite is that it is twice as rare as the emerald and found often, in much smaller rough sizes as compared to the emerald. Often, they are filled with fissures and fractures that it is difficult for one to really appreciate the visual beauty of the emerald (if not for the abundant marketing telling consumers that emeralds are so beautiful).

If you elevate your feet right before bed, you’ll likely have to get up right as you’re falling into a deep sleep to use the bathroom! I recommend doing this a few hours before bed because all those fluids that you’re helping return to the heart will be filtered by the kidneys and you’ll have to pee it all out. I often tell patients to prop their feet up on a few pillows on the coffee table. While you don’t have to have them straight up, get them as high as you can. One of the best times to put your feet up is after dinner. This helps gravity pull fluids from the legs back into your circulatory system. If you have to stand for a long period of time, take a break every couple hours to sit down and put your feet up for 10 minutes. What you can do: The best thing you can do to avoid or reduce swelling is to reduce how long you’re on your feet. These are called varicose veins, and they should go back to normal after the birth of the baby. This pressure also may cause some veins to become swollen or look purple or blue. ![]() Meanwhile, your growing uterus is putting pressure on the large veins that return blood to your heart, leaving all the extra fluid to pool in your lower limbs. You also may notice swelling (edema) in other parts of your body, especially in your lower extremities, such as your feet and ankles.ĭuring pregnancy, your body produces about 60 percent more blood volume. Why it happens: When you hit 30 weeks of pregnancy, it may not just be your belly that’s swelling. Let’s take a look at eight common symptoms during the third trimester of pregnancy: What causes them, how to help relieve them, and when you should call your doctor. This topic has been on my mind more in the last few months as my sister, Toral Patel, who is a neurosurgeon at UT Southwestern Medical Center, entered her third trimester and began dealing with some of these discomforts. Patients often ask me how to make the third trimester a little more comfortable. Swelling ankles, trouble sleeping, back pain, having to go to the bathroom every 20 minutes – these are all possibilities as you move into the pregnancy homestretch. Unfortunately, there may be a few uncomfortable symptoms still in store for you. ![]() Now it’s the third trimester and you’re so close to meeting baby. Congratulations!

Some of them are quite nostalgic and are higher in fat and processed ingredients than recipes I normally collect, but it's really neat to see the different kinds of foods they were interested in. In the last couple of years I've been typing up all the recipes my grandparents and my mother collected over the years, and am posting them here. Of non-celebrity chefs, I've gotta say that that the greatest influences on my cooking have been my mother, Julia Child, and my cooking instructor Chef Gabriel Claycamp at Seattle's Culinary Communion. ![]() I'm not fond over fakey, over-enthusiastic performance chefs. My favorite chefs on the Food Network are Alton Brown, Rachel Ray, Mario Batali, and Giada De Laurentiis. :) I collect cookbooks (to slow myself down I've limited myself to purchasing them at thrift stores, although I occasionally buy an especially good one at full price), and - yes, I admit it - I love FoodTV. We're hoping that his sisters will soon show up with their own accounts, as well. My sister Cathy is here as cxstitcher and my mom is Juliesmom - say hi to them, eh? Our friend Darrell is here as Uncle Dobo, too! I've been typing in his recipes for him and entering them on R'Zaar. Some of these recipes are in his account, some of them in mine - he rarely uses his account, though, so we'll probably usually post them to mine in the future. He rarely uses recipes, though, so often after he's made dinner I sit down at the computer and talk him through how he made the dishes so that I can get it down on paper. In a small bowl, whisk together the yogurt, mayo, vinegar, mustard, garlic, dill, salt, and pepper. In a large bowl, combine the carrots, celery, tomatoes, and tuna. I am proud to say that I have several family members who are also on RecipeZaar! My husband, here as Steingrim, is an excellent cook. Drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside.

The glossy black cockatoo is the smallest of the five black cockatoo species which are found in Australia. The female's tail is barred whereas the male's tail is patched. The female is a duller dark brown, with flecks of yellow in the tail and collar. The male glossy black cockatoo is predominantly black with a chocolate-brown head and striking caudal red patches.

In South Australia, where the birds live solely on Kangaroo Island, recent bushfires have destroyed a large part of the habitat and replanting efforts are continuing. Sadly these trees form the greater part of the bird's diet, but are regarded as "rubbish" by most people including developers, who wantonly destroy this habitat. halmaturinus found only on Kangaroo Island South AustraliaĪll members of this species are sometimes referred to as the "Casuarina Cockatoo" a reference to the bird's preference for eating the cone seeds of the Allocasuarina and Casuarina or She Oak Trees. ![]() lathami found from Kingaroy and the Wide Bay District of South Eastern Queensland south to East Gippsland in Victoria. erebus which is found in Central North Queensland from Eungella National Park near Mackay south to Monto in South Eastern Queensland.

It can be helpful to lightly clamp the drill in a vice to give you an extra hand. Set them to a width that grabs the outside of the chuck and use the additional leverage from the handles to loosen it. In this case, your best bet is to grab a pair of adjustable pliers (Channellocks). Sometimes, a drill chuck can be so tight on a drill bit that it’s difficult to loosen it. How to Remove a Stuck Bit From a Keyless Chuck Loosen the chuck and make sure all the teeth are engaging the bit as you clamp them back down. Pro Tip: If you change a drill bit and it wobbles funny when you pull the trigger, it might not be centered between the jaws. To remove a drill, bit, simply turn the chuck clockwise until you feel it release the bit. If your drill does, you’ll feel and hear it clicking as the jaws tighten around the bit. Some drill chucks have a ratcheting mechanism to help. Then tighten it (counterclockwise) until you feel it begin to resist and then tighten a little more. ![]() When you’re installing a bit for the first time, loosen the chuck (clockwise) until it’s just wide enough to slip the drill bit into it. As you’re holding the drill with the chuck pointing away from you, spinning it counterclockwise tightens the jaws around your drill bit, and spinning it clockwise loosens it. Keyless chucks tighten and loosen by simply spinning the chuck’s outer housing. Unlike your dad or grandpa’s old drill that had a funky-shaped key clamped to the cord, keyless chucks require no tools at all. Chances are, the answer to your question is in this section. By far the most common type of drill chuck today is a keyless chuck. ![]() ![]() My top three (with the order depending on the criteria) consists of BFD, AD and SD. So, which one do I like best? I can't say for sure. But the sounds are really great, nothing to complain here. It doesn't have built-in effects and the editing options are fairly limited. That's great because the EZD plugin itself doesn't have many editing capabilities.įinally, Steven Slate Drums - the VSTi itself is still lacking compared to BFD, AD or SD. Plus you can play the EZX kits in SD to take of advantage of the mixing capabilities. Kits like Claustrophobic or Twisted Kit add some nice unique sounds, too. Those are available for quire cheap (~$30). What's really great about EZD are the expansions which offer some true gems like Americana, Funkmasters or The Classic. The default kit of EZ Drummer is basically a trimmed down version of the SD kit. I'm really looking forward to the two Roots SDX which I expect to arrive soon. Metal Foundry has a huge range of metal drums of great variety. The Vintage & Custom kit offer some really great new kits which sound more raw and unproduced. The default kit isn't my personal favorite, but it sounds good and quite production ready. OTOH you have incredible control over the microphones and the bleeding. I find it comparatively difficult to add kit pieces from different libraries and the mixer isn't as clear as the BFD mixer. The user friendlyness of the VSTi varies. BFD would benefit from more and better presets I suppose. It comes with many great onboard effects and in general the VST is very user friendly considering the complexity it has to deal with. I'd highly recommend it to anybody who loves to tweak the sound to their liking. There are some really unique expansions available, too (Decatom, Taiko, 8bit Kit). It's a great plugin to quickly fire up and get some drum sounds going in no time.īFD has very natural (as in unprocessed) drum samples, more natural than most other drum VSTs IMO. It comes with great preset that get an incredible amount of variation out of the comparatively small sample sets. But still the sounds are great and convincing. It always depends on what you want to do.Īddictive Drums doesn't have huge sample libraries and thus doesn't have the most detailed sounds. They are all great products and I would have difficulties to call one of them the best in general. The interesting point is - all products are different, with respect to usage, functionality and sound. ![]() You could say I'm fairly well covered with respect to sampled drums. I'm an absolute drums addict and I have Addictive Drums (incl Indie, Metal, Funk and Reel Machines), BFD 2 (with almost all expansions), Superior Drummer (with Custom&Vintage, Metal Foundry and soon the two Roots packs), EZ Drummer (with 6 EZX) and Steven Slate Drums 4. In the long run, you’ll be more productive after giving your body and brain a day to chill out. The healing process requires rest, so even if you’re not contagious, take the day off to recuperate. If your sickness is causing you discomfort to the point where you can no longer perform your work duties, you shouldn’t be stressing your body out any more by forcing it. You truly don’t have the energy for work. Heck, you might not even have to take a day off and get away with just answering a few emails for the day in that sort of situation. This is especially true for jobs where you can work from home. This is the big one - if you’re at all likely to get your coworkers sick by coming into work, it’s imperative that you stay home, even if physically you feel mostly okay. Here are a few examples of good reasons for taking off work: It should go without saying that not all of these reasons are as good as the others. There are lots of ways to approach telling your boss that you can’t come to work, but at some point or another, you’re going to have to give them a reason. ![]() Please let me know if there’s anything else I can do today or after I come back in to make up for this absence.

Otherwise, make sure that there’s some sort of plan in place for the work getting done either later on or else by someone else.įollow up. If you’re well enough and the work can be done remotely, offer to work from home. Offer to make up the lost work however you can. Being a good employee also involves letting your teammates that you’re gone for the day - especially important for jobs with a lot of group projects and collaborative efforts. Your boss isn’t the only one who will be affected by your absence. If you’re feeling bad the day before, give your boss a heads-up and let them know about the possibility of you missing work the next day.Īlert your team as well. If you wake up feeling bad, then email, call, or send a Slack message (however your work tends to communicate) the very moment you realize you shouldn’t come to work. Something like “is there anything else I need to do on my end to log this sick day with HR?” will do. If you’re not sure if this is necessary for you because it’s your first time asking for a sick day, simply include it in your call/email to your supervisor. Some companies might also have online portals where you log your sick day requests for admin purposes. For most jobs at most companies, telling your supervisor that you’ll be out is the right choice. ![]() While employee handbooks and corporate policy documents can probably give you a precise answer, there’s probably no need to go digging through all that literature. It’s not your fault that you were or are sick, but it’s always possible that your absence will nevertheless have a negative effect on someone you work with, depending on the nature of your work.įor this reason, there are a few things you should do when you professionally call in sick to be conscientious of your boss and your coworkers:Ĭhoose the right person to tell. |
