Unfortunately, we can’t do that in the real world, so it’s hard to say if Ceylon cinnamon would have the same effect in a more realistic setting. The problem with test-tube studies is that they typically involve dousing samples with highly-concentrated doses of the compound being studied. Test-tube studies show that cinnamon essential oil can kill some harmful bacteria, fungi, and even parasites. In one human study, Ceylon cinnamon increased antioxidant levels and improved other markers of free radical activity.

![]() ![]() Unsalted butter: This type of butter contains no added salt.Here are some of the most common types of butter: For example, some kinds of butter are preferred for making baked goods like cakes and cookies, while others are best used as a spreadable topping for toast and bagels. Here’s the recipe and instructions for making homemade ghee! I’d love to hear how it goes and what you think! If you have any comments or questions, just drop me a comment below or send me a message.When shopping for butter, it’s important to choose a product that best suits your needs. Swapping out the butter for ghee adds another level of nutty flavor! Grilled Cajun Foil-Packet Salmon - I love adding little pats of butter on top of my foil-packet salmon before grilling or roasting it. Using ghee (or bacon drippings if you have them!) takes them over the top. Magical Sauteed Green Beans - These were the first green beans that my kids actually loved to eat. (Seriously.) I love how easy this cauliflower puree is to make in my Instant Pot! Instant Pot Cauliflower Puree with Rosemary and Garlic - If you’re doing a round of Whole30, using ghee in mashed potatoes and mashed cauliflower makes them taste even better than adding butter. You can also use this method with regular potatoes. This is the best way to get crispy sweet potato hashbrowns, too. Here are a few of my favorite recipes that are made SO much better by using ghee:Įasy Instant Pot Garlic Mashed Potatoes - By using ghee in place of butter and alternative milk, you can make Whole30 compliant mashed potatoes!Ĭrispy Oven Sweet Potato Hashbrowns - If you’ve never used ghee to make hashbrowns, YOU MUST. Ghee is an all-purpose cooking fat, but because it takes a little effort to make (more than buying avocado oil at Costco), I try to use it when it will really shine. You’ll wonder why you didn’t switch out your cooking oil sooner! Ways to use up this Ghee Butter Recipe Now, go fry an egg and be forever converted to the nutty, brown-buttery deliciousness that is ghee. Also, as it cools, it’ll turn opaque and thicken up. You can leave it on the counter to use for about 2 months or store it in the fridge for up to 6 months. ![]() Butter is not.Įt voila! Ghee! Isn’t it pretty? Storing Homemade GheeĪt this point you can transfer it to a clean glass jar - it actually fits perfectly in a pint-size mason jar. ![]() There’s a reason why people call it liquid gold.Īlso, ghee is Whole30 compliant. SO, you can get the flavor of butter (more like, browned butter) with the versatility of avocado or coconut oil! Roasting vegetables in ghee is a game changer. You can cook ghee at a higher temperature than you can butter since it’s the milk solids that tend to burn. The biggest benefit of cooking with ghee is that it has a high smoking point. What’s the benefit of using ghee? Nutritionally speaking it’s similar to butter, but since there are no milk proteins (solids), it may be more tolerable for you if you’re sensitive to dairy. Or butter that has had its milk solids removed. What is Clarified Butter (Ghee)?įirst off, if you don’t know what ghee is it’s basically the same as clarified butter. Try roasting some vegetables tossed in ghee – you’ll never want to go back to regular cooking oil. It deserves its own special category of greatness. Let me tell you – ghee isn’t just a replacement for butter. I started making ghee several years ago during a round of Whole30 (since ghee is compliant and butter isn’t). I’ll walk you through making this “liquid gold” – it’s easier than you think. Let me guess? You shelled out $15 for a tiny jar of ghee at the store, and you’re trying to figure out how to make ghee yourself? Welcome! Thankfully all you need is a few sticks of butter and some patience. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() First Scale: Tempest Dragon ( 壱 ( いち ) ノ 鱗 ( うろこ ) 嵐 ( あらし ) 龍 ( りゅう ), Ichi no uroko: Arashi Ryū ?) - The user dashes forward at blinding speeds and spirals horizontally or vertically and delivers a powerful drilling slash, taking the form of a Japanese dragon shaped like a cyclone.Similar to Beast Breathing, only supplement moves are called "Forms", as assaulting Dragon Breathing moves are called "Scales" instead. The only known user, Zubitō Yamakaze after training to create his self taught style, combines his developed superhuman sense of touch with his Breathing style, boosting his sense of touch to the point of extrasensory perception, being able to sense attacks from his blind spots, sense emotions, and see enemy positions, through this, he is able to take advantage of their openings to much greater effect in combat.ĭragon Breathing has nine known techniques with two improvisation, one technique created during Zubito's fight against Daki and Gyutaro and the other against Akoyu.

Most, if not all of the techniques take the form of or imitate the sounds of dragons or parts of a dragon such as dragon heads, wings, claws, and tails, accompanied with loud roaring sounds and some destructive force being added to it, like alcohol and matches, gunpowder, or explosives. The Dragon Breathing combat style combines savage and brutal swings as well as very acrobatic movements such as flipping, leaping, or twirling. ![]() ![]() ![]() To create the SessionLocal class, use the function sessionmaker:įrom sqlalchemy import Boolean, Column, ForeignKey, Integer, String from sqlalchemy.orm import relationship from. We will use Session (the one imported from SQLAlchemy) later. We name it SessionLocal to distinguish it from the Session we are importing from SQLAlchemy. The class itself is not a database session yet.īut once we create an instance of the SessionLocal class, this instance will be the actual database session. ![]() Create a SessionLocal class ¶Įach instance of the SessionLocal class will be a database session. This is to prevent accidentally sharing the same connection for different things (for different requests).īut in FastAPI, using normal functions ( def) more than one thread could interact with the database for the same request, so we need to make SQLite know that it should allow that with connect_args=.Īlso, we will make sure each request gets its own database connection session in a dependency, so there's no need for that default mechanism. In a similar way you could use any other ORM.īy default SQLite will only allow one thread to communicate with it, assuming that each thread would handle an independent request. Here we will see how to work with SQLAlchemy ORM. So, orion_ could be the name (from the name column in the owners table) of this pet's owner.Īnd the ORM will do all the work to get the information from the corresponding table owners when you try to access it from your pet object.Ĭommon ORMs are for example: Django-ORM (part of the Django framework), SQLAlchemy ORM (part of SQLAlchemy, independent of framework) and Peewee (independent of framework), among others. This way, you could also have an attribute orion_cat.owner and the owner would contain the data for this pet's owner, taken from the table owners. These ORMs also have tools to make the connections or relations between tables or entities. And the value of that attribute could be, e.g. With an ORM, you normally create a class that represents a table in a SQL database, each attribute of the class represents a column, with a name and a type.įor example a class Pet could represent a SQL table pets.Īnd each instance object of that class represents a row in the database.įor example an object orion_cat (an instance of Pet) could have an attribute orion_cat.type, for the column type. ORMs ¶įastAPI works with any database and any style of library to talk to the database.Ī common pattern is to use an "ORM": an "object-relational mapping" library.Īn ORM has tools to convert (" map") between objects in code and database tables (" relations"). The FastAPI specific code is as small as always. Notice that most of the code is the standard SQLAlchemy code you would use with any framework.

Few composers led such uneventful lives as Schubert apparently did Though the two composers would not meet until 1822, Beethoven’s influence is clear in the piano sonatas of that period and especially in the Sixth Symphony, which replaces the lightness and Mozartian grace of the earlier symphonies with much more dramatic intent. These gatherings also attracted the attention of the Viennese police, on the lookout for revolutionary activity in the aftermath of the Napoleonic wars, and Schubert and four of his friends were arrested. The composer, who – barely 5ft tall – was nicknamed Schwammerl ( “Little Mushroom”), was the pianist. That period also saw the beginning of the Schubertiades, informal evenings in private houses, sponsored by wealthy patrons, in which Schubert and his friends met to read poetry and to hear performances of his music. In the Trout Quintet, written two years later, the song became the theme of a set of variations, and in 1824 Schubert would use another song of 1817, Das Tod und die Mädchen (Death and the Maiden), in the best known of his string quartets, in D minor. His reputation was beginning to grow, and he continued to compose feverishly – orchestral and choral works, as well as more songs, including some of his most famous, such as An die Musik and Die Forelle (The Trout), which both date from 1817. He was making friends in Viennese literary and musical circles, and in 1816 he left his family home to share lodgings with a poet friend, Franz von Schober, in the centre of the city. At that time the writer was the standard bearer for German romanticism, and Schubert, like Beethoven before him, would play a major part in the musical transition between the classical era and romanticism. It was quickly followed by others to Goethe texts, such as Erlkönig and Heidenröslein. One of the triggers to Schubert’s explosion of songwriting had been his discovery of Goethe in 1814: his setting of Gretchen am Spinnrade, from Faust, was perhaps his first great song. Before he was 20 he had written five symphonies, four masses, six operas (mostly unfinished), three string quartets, three piano sonatas and about 300 songs. He found the drudgery of teaching hard, yet he was composing at an incredible rate. He met a young singer, Therese Grob, for whom he composed a number of works, but he was prevented from marrying her by a law that required prospective husbands to prove they had the financial means to support a wife. His First Symphony was completed in 1813.Īt the end of 1813, he returned to his family home – his mother had died the previous year – to begin work at his father’s school as well as giving private lessons, while still studying with Salieri. As well as composing string quartets, his first piano pieces and songs, Schubert also wrote for the college orchestra. ![]() Among his teachers there was Antonio Salieri, the éminence grise of Viennese music at the beginning of the 19th century who gave the boy private composition lessons. ![]() He began learning the violin aged eight, played the viola in his family’s string quartet, and began composing pieces for the group at the age of 11 he won a choral scholarship to the Imperial College. He rarely travelled far outside the city of Vienna, where he was born the 12th child of a schoolmaster in the Lichtental district.

There are, of course, the naysayers, critics who will tell you that this tender relationship is farfetched, too unrealistic to ever actually exist in the real world. Though it has been more than 20 years since Abdul and Skat Kat first introduced viewers to their dysfunctional relationship, the Grammy-winning music video still resonates due to its distinct flavor of ingredients - what can go wrong when you combine an animated rapping cat, synthesized ’80s beats and a tap number worthy of Gregory Hines or Savion Glover (long before a penguin named Mumble tapped his way into our hearts, I might add)? “But when we get together it just all works out,” the two sing in unison. “You like the movies and I like TV,” Abdul croons. The two are head-over-heels for each other, but they couldn’t be more different. “Opposites Attract” portrays the inexplicable attraction between Abdul and Skat Kat, who was dubbed “the greatest rapping animated cat in the history of pop music,” by Rolling Stone. You’ve seen it on VH1’s “I Love the ’80s.” You’ve probably even gone frame by frame, pausing the YouTube video to memorize the routine they perform on the ledge of a roof. But long before she ever took her seat next to Randy and Simon as an original “Idol” judge, she was dancing a duet with MC Skat Kat, and proving that opposites do, in fact, attract. Paula Abdul is many things to many people: singer, choreographer, Lakers cheerleader, “American Idol” judge. ![]() Perhaps the reason why some women go crazy for the bad-boy types like Don Draper and Jeff Winger is Paula Abdul’s destructive and depraved relationship with that dastardly animated cat. She hates cigarettes, and he always smokes!Įnough is enough. OK, we’re definitely not talking about dancing, right? Move at your own pace, Paula! Don’t let Skat Kat pressure you.Īs the song continues, it’s very clear that Abdul and Skat Kat aren’t just lovers with a few differences - they are completely wrong for each other. ![]() “Our friends are sayin’ / We ain’t gonna last / Cuz I move slowly / And baby I’m fast.” No one wants a guy who’s out all night, slinking around alleys with the riff-raff (have you seen Skat Kat’s crew? There’s no way Taboo isn’t a drug dealer). This is starting to sound like it might not be the healthiest relationship. Then Abdul informs us that she goes to bed early, with Skat Kat interrupting to say he parties all night. In fact, let’s just toss that aside.Īt the video’s start, Abdul muses “Baby seems we never ever agree / You like the movies / And I like TV.”Īlright, this sounds like a pretty normal and harmless thing to disagree about with a romantic partner (though are movies really the opposite of TV? … I might be unnecessarily caught up in semantics, yes, but perhaps this warrants discussion? File it away for a potential debate to spark at your next dinner party). But a close inspection of “Opposites Attracts” ’s lyrics reveal that something is … not quite right.Īnd I’m not just talking about the implied beastiality going on in this video. And I’m definitely pro-rapping-cats (Who isn’t?!). ![]() Now, I’m all about vapid pop and cheeseball spectacle, two things Abdul certainly mastered during her brief-but-loud presence in the pop world. The music video reeks of ’80s cheese, featuring MC Skat Kat, a rapping cartoon cat inspired by a scene from Gene Kelly’s “Anchors Aweigh” in which Kelly dances with Jerry of the dynamic animated duo Tom and Jerry. Perhaps pop star Paula Abdul had this magical formula in mind when concocting the concept for the music video that would accompany her chart-topping dance-pop single “Opposites Attract” from her debut album Forever Your Girl. ![]() ![]() ![]() They are active members of Sherwood Church in Albany.

The Medic Often needs the Berserker, and in turn, the Beserker needs the Medic. One of the biggest changes between Killing Floor 1 and 2, is the fact of necessity which overrules personal gain. The fact of the matter is, one death within the team at the wrong time could result in a cataclysmic downfall of the entire operation. This dynamic way of playing forces players to develop strategies on the fly, and look out for teammates they would normally leave to die. It is because of this that players are forced to keep moving, moving from space to space, holding an area only long enough to catch their breath and possibly reload before moving out to the next room, street, or alleyway. Players are no longer able to pick a single hallway to hold, for now there is almost nowhere the zeds cannot crawl from. Long dead are the holdout days of Killing Floor 1, the mentality shattered by the panic inducing attacks of the Zeds in Killing Floor 2. It is now a month later, and once again six people are facing down the legions of the damned, hoping to make it through the horde just long enough to get to the trader, and get something better than what they now have. This has all changed with the introduction of Killing Floor 2. A high level Berserker could often hold a wave on his own, and many times not need the rest of them team. More often than none, In Killing Floor 1, Team mates found themselves splitting away from the rest of the group, down to pairs, or often times, even by themselves until the later part of the waves. Imagine also of a commando, wielding his guns of trade, mowing down everything that moves, targeting a specific Zed for himself, unwilling to break away to help a friend who desperately needs his help. Perhaps instead, it might have been a Rambo, not with guns, but with blades, instead running off into the sunset, disappearing knee-deep in clones, only to return at the end of the wave, covered in blood, guts, and gore, keeping the glory of the kills for themselves. Using this tactic to survive on their own, they might use their team as bait, so they could get away to plan their own next move, thus allowing the team to wither die, but hopefully taking enough with them so the medic’s job could be easier and the pay could be all theirs. Perhaps there would be the lone medic, who decided that staying with the team would be more of a hindrance than a help, deciding to break away the first chance they got. In the original Killing Floor, six teammates found themselves back to back to back, often wondering if the next wave of zeds, would be the one to bring them all down. It is imperative now, more than ever that you work with your team, and not against them if you wish to stay alive long enough to see your next pay check. By now you have developed the skills to keep you alive, move faster, do better, and hit harder, but alas, so have the clones. In Killing Floor 2, you find yourself in Europe, Just one month after the devastating outbreak that crippled London and hurled Great Britain, and most of the world, on its knees. In Killing Floor 2 you play as a survivor of the outbreak that had originally broken out in London due to Horzine Biotech, a company that focused on research of Cloning and other technical research. Killing Floor 2 is the sequel of the overly popular Killing Floor, developed by Tripwire Interactive back in 2009, and is one of the shining jewels on the company’s roster. ![]() It is then, the timer stops, and the doors are pushed open. Another Zed dead means another head for pay. The timer counts down and in a matter of moments, he and I will have to push back another horde of Z. I nod, and brandish my shovel, pushing my glasses back to the bridge of my nose. I look over to my partner and he asks me if I am ready. I look down, and I see my tool of trade though simple, the shovel has served me well thus far, and with a little luck, perhaps it will serve me through one more night. The wind continues to howl through the half boarded window I am looking out of, and nearby, my partner is checking his gun, and making sure he is fully loaded, ready to go. Instead, looking out of the window, What should have been a cloudy, dark night had long since become orange, with the lights of a thousand burning embers rising up into the sky, singing their song of chaos that had been ripped from the once peaceful streets of Paris. ![]() ![]() ![]() Hannu_E_K edited this topic 49 months ago.
