Internal temp well done steak9/27/2023 ![]() Steaks that hold up well at this level of doneness include rib-eye, bone-in strip and any Wagyu cut. For a 1-inch thick steak, cook each side for about 12 minutes, then let it rest for about 10 minutes before serving. The internal temperature for a medium-well steak should be around 150 degrees. Temperature for medium-well steak Like your steak medium-well? Cook it to an internal temperature of 140 to 145 degrees, depending on the meat's thickness. Massip said a rib-eye is a good option if you like your meat medium since it has a higher fat content and the heat will bring out more flavor from the fat. As with a medium-rare steak, let it rest for about 10 minutes before serving. This takes about 10 minutes of cooking on each side for a 1-inch thick steak. The internal temperature for a medium steak should be around 140 degrees. Courtesy of the Certified Angus Beef Brand Temperature for medium steak Cook steak to an internal temperature of 140 if you like it medium. Massip says stick with leaner cuts if you like your steak cooked medium-rare and recommends a hanger or strip steak. Let the meat rest for up to 10 minutes before serving. For a 1-inch thick steak, this should take about 7 minutes of cooking on each side. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of around 130 degrees. ![]() Medium-rare is the most-requested doneness at Capa where Massip's personal favorite is the 12-ounce bone-in filet. Season with salt and pepper, add grapeseed oil to a really hot pan and then sear." Temperature for medium-rare steak A medium-rare steak should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees. "Dry your steak, making sure to remove any excess water. Which steaks are best cooked rare? "The lean cuts are better," advised Massip, who added that the secret to getting a crusty sear on a rare steak starts with paper towels. ![]() Then let it rest for at least 5 minutes before cutting or serving. For a 1-inch thick steak, this will take about 5 minutes of cooking on each side. The desired internal temperature for a rare steak should be 120-125 degrees. Temperature for rare steak A rare steak should be cooked to an internal temperature of 130 degrees. Another reason to use a thermometer instead of your subjective eyesight? Steak usually isn't a cheap cut of meat and since it can be less forgiving, cooking it requires more precision. "It’s important to not judge meat doneness only by color because it can vary based on the type of meat you are cooking, or the process you are using to cook it," Massip told TODAY Food. Judging meat doneness only by its color is one of the most common food handling mistakes home cooks make - use a meat thermometer. According to Massip, all home cooks should invest in a meat thermometer. Judging meat doneness only by its color is one of the most common food handling mistakes home cooks make.

Blueharvest cisco9/26/2023 AD enables administrators to put users’ home folders on a server, rather than on their local machines, and can give users access to all of a network’s resources through a single log-on. Solution: Help your IT people.īig Windows networks often use Microsoft Active Directory (AD) to manage user accounts and provide security, among other things. Problem: You want to connect your Mac to a Windows network that uses Microsoft Active Directory. You need to run Windows on your Mac, and then fire up IE for Windows. If you work at such an organization, no Mac browser will work. Some businesses have internal Web pages that download Windows apps to your browser. That may trick Windows-friendly sites into thinking you’re one of Them. When you relaunch Safari, open the new Debug menu and select User Agent, which will display a list of browsers. In Safari, use the Debug menu: In Terminal, enter defaults write IncludeDebugMenu 1 at the prompt. If that doesn’t help, try tweaking your current browser so Web sites think it’s something else. In the Configuration pop-up menu, choose Edit Configurations, and then enter the information the network administrator gave you.īrowser Spoofing The User Agent option in Safari’s Debug menu can disguise your Mac status from Windows-oriented Web sites. Click on either PPTP or L2TP Over IPSec (whichever one your network uses) and then click on Continue. With that information in hand, open Internet Connect (in the Applications folder) and choose File: New VPN Connection. You’ll also have to find out whether your VPN uses PPTP or L2TP Over IPSec. To set up the client, you’ll first need to ask your network administrator for the name of the VPN server, a user name, and any other details you’ll need to log in. Many VPN services are designed primarily for Windows users, but, fortunately, your Mac has a built-in client that works with many of these Windows-friendly VPNs. VPNs let you access a remote network securely across the Internet. Problem: You want to log in to your office network remotely from a Mac through a Windows-based VPN (Virtual Private Network). GoToMyPC, a subscription service that costs $20 a month, lets you access and control a Windows PC from a Mac (but not vice versa) when you’re on any computer, anywhere on the Internet. But be warned: VNC is not as easy to set up and use as Timbuktu Pro.įinally, you might consider Web-based remote control. Chicken of the VNC (/projects/cotvnc/) is one of the most popular clients for Mac OS X.

Benjamin hardy morning routine checklist9/26/2023 But this must be “Deep Work,” with no distractions, just like an intensive workout is non-stop. The best work happens in short intensive spurts. However, the only way to truly recover is by actually pushing yourself to exhaustion during the workout. Most of the growth actually comes during the recovery process. The concept is simple: Intensive activity followed by high quality rest and recovery. To get the best results in your fitness, research has found that shorter but more intensive exercise is more effective than longer drawn-out exercise. Why do anything half-way? If you’re going to work, you’re going to work. However, when you are results-oriented , rather than “being busy,” you’re 100 percent on when you’re working and 100 percent off when you’re not. Makes sense, they have plenty of time to get it done. When most people are working, they do so in a relaxed fashion. Most people’s “working time” is not done at peak performance levels. If you’re like most people, your workday is a blend of low-velocity work mixed with continual distraction (e.g., social media and email). “Wherever you are, make sure you’re there.” - Dan Sullivan If that’s your goal, this post is for you. If you’re like most people, you probably want to make a great income, doing work you love, that also provides lots of flexibility in your schedule. However, you must also be clear on yours. He’s also fine, apparently, not spending much time with his family.Īnd that’s completely fine. Gary Vaynerchuck wants to own the New York Jets. ![]() It also depends on what you’re really trying to accomplish in your life. But what about the super-productive?Īlthough Gary Vaynerchuck claims to work 20 hours per day, many “highly successful” people I know work between 3–6 hours per day. This is the average person in those countries. People in countries like Luxembourg are working approximately 30 hours per week (approximately 6 hours per day, 5 days per week) and making more money on average than people working longer workweeks. Actually, the most productive countries have the shortest workdays. ![]() The most productive countries in the world do not work 8 hours per day. Perhaps when most work was physical labor, but not in the knowledge working world we now live in.Īlthough this may be obvious based on people’s mediocre performance, addiction to stimulants, lack of engagement, and the fact that most people hate their jobs - now there’s loads of scientific evidence you can’t ignore. ![]() The traditional 9–5 workday is poorly structured for high productivity.

Wizard with a gun cartoon9/26/2023 Primus then reshaped his own body into Cybertron, before creating the Transformer species and imbuing them with a portion of his divine essence through the Matrix of Leadership. Primus had defeated Unicron at the dawn of time by trapping them both within asteroids on the physical plane. Per Unicron's telling of events, he was a primal force of evil at the dawn of the universe who led an army of Dark Gods against his mortal foe, Primus, Lord of the Light Gods. The first take on the myth was recounted by Unicron himself in the 1988 UK story " The Legacy of Unicron!". Before reaching its present form, the mythos went through several distinct versions over the course of the series' original run. The Primus/Unicron backstory first originated in the Marvel Comics The Transformers series under the pen of author Simon Furman. 11.1 Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers.10.1 Transformers Cybertron: Primus Unleashed.2.11.1 Prime Wars Trilogy marketing material.2.6 Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity.2.5 Dreamwave Generation One continuity.Still, in most realities he has managed to hold the line against Unicron and other threats, either directly or through his innumerable children. Indeed, even the intended agents of his grand plan, the Transformers, have all too frequently become mired in endless civil war. At times he has been deceived by mere mortals, has made miscalculations which jeopardized all of existence, and has been betrayed by one of his earliest creations. Though wise and powerful beyond measure, Primus is neither infallible nor without weakness. The spark of each Transformer is a small piece of Primus's essence, and together they form his lifeforce, the Allspark. Prophecies of a war to come were written down in his holy covenant as well. A portion of his lifeforce resides within the Matrix, which often determines the leader of the Autobots. Within the depths of Cybertron, the mega-computer Vector Sigma serves as his internal mainframe, and a gateway for select Transformers to access his power. Primus eventually transformed himself into the planet Cybertron from its surface, his creations have risen to defend and patrol the galaxy. ![]() In each one, he is the final defense against his fallen sibling, Unicron the Chaos-Bringer. An ancient and ethereal being whose origins date back to the beginnings of the universe itself, Primus is a multiversal force for good, his life force existing across multiple realities and infinite alternate universes. Primus is the creator-god of the Transformers.

Beyblade metal fury phantom orion9/26/2023 Despite Diablo's weight, it is most suited for Attack and Balance Type combinations rather than Defense or Stamina Types. The free-spinning Metal Frame of Ultimate Balance Mode would theoretically provide greater Stamina, but the disturbance caused on impact would make any Stamina gains null. Of the two modes, Attack Mode is considered superior as it allows Diablo to interact with parts other than the outclassed X Drive, as well as having high Attack power. These positions push down on the pins of the X Drive 4D Bottom, changing the tip automatically. The Metal Frame has three positions that it changes between when impacting an opposing Bey. As the Metal Frame rests in between the Core and the 4D Bottom when in Ultimate Balance Mode, it can rotate freely. Johannes is a tall skinny young man, with dark skin and wide yellow eyes with feline pupils. ![]() ![]() He battles using trickery with his Beat Lynx TH170WD. He is one of the seekers of Nemesis, looking to recruit Legendary Bladers to give their Star Fragment to revive Nemesis. In "Ultimate Balance Mode", the Metal Frame is upside down and the Energy Ring is exposed. Johannes (, Yohanesu) is a major antagonist on Beyblade: Metal Fury. This season has one 30 second prologue before the Opening Theme. Authentic Imported from Japan Bey Battling Top Blade(BB-80 Gravity Perseus AD145WD) Metal Gyro Set with Launchers, with Two Forms (Attack and Defensive). Gingka, Ryuga, Yuki and Kyoya are all Legendary Bladers so that leaves 6 to locate and recruit. In "Attack Mode", the Metal Frame is in place, and the X Drive 4D Bottom can be changed manually. The Metal Fury season features Gingka and his friends scouring the Earth to locate the 10 Legendary Bladers needed to defeat Nemesis. ![]() Like other 4D Metal Wheels, Diablo features a mode change gimmick by changing the position of the Metal Frame on the Core. Diablo was also the first Fusion Wheel to feature a free-spinning gimmick. Like the Nemesis A Face Bolt and Energy Ring, Diablo incorporates design elements from other Metal Fury Beys into its design. Phantom Orion 145ES is a Stamina Type Beyblade released by Hasbro as part of the Hybrid Wheel System. Diablo is the heaviest Fusion Wheel ever released in the Metal Saga toyline, weighing 51 grams.

Image compressor9/26/2023 ![]() This is likely due to the smart lossy compression method TinyPNG uses. And what’s more, we couldn’t detect any differences in quality between the compressed and uncompressed versions. We tested it out with a bunch of images, and it reduced the file size by at least 60% every time. TinyPNG will compress it in a few sessions and serve up a download link that you can click to save the compressed version to your computer.

It’s not just images that NitroPack optimizes either. This means that when visitors first open up your website pages, only the images above the fold are loaded, while images further down the page are only loaded as the user scrolls down and they appear on the screen.Īnd of course, it also includes both lossy and lossless compression to reduce image file sizes. It also includes Lazy Loading, which defers loading of non-critical resources. That includes Adaptive Image Sizing, which preemptively rescales your images by changing the dimensions to match the containers they’re displayed in across all screen sizes. You’ll need a Pro account to use this feature-you can try it out for free with our 7-day free trial.It’s actually a cloud-based, all-in-one performance optimization toolkit that comes with everything you need to speed up your site, including a complete image optimization stack.Īll you have to do is sign up and connect it to your CMS via connector plugins, and it’ll automatically deploy a bunch of useful image optimizations to boost your site speed. ![]() ![]() Smallpdf uses sophisticated Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software, which converts scanned files to an editable format for you, making it easy to edit pretty much anything.
