![]() ![]() It may herald the future simplification of our living room remote control situation. Chromecast (via DIAL) eliminates a step by allowing launch and control of an app from a single device for playback on the TV through the Chromecast. But in those cases, you have to launch the app on the set-top box and the app on the mobile device and run them simultaneously. There are currently other apps that work in conjunction with set-top boxes like gaming systems to enable you to use a smartphone or tablet as a remote control. Once the Chromecast is set up, you use third-party apps like Netflix, YouTube or the Chrome browser to do the actual launching and controlling of your content. To set up Chromecast, you have to use the Google Home app on mobile devices, or Google's Chrome web browser on a computer. This dynamic allows you to turn off your mobile device without stopping whatever is streaming from the Chromecast to your TV. Once an app is launched, it runs on the Chromecast, but a communication channel will be open that allows the client device to act as a sort of remote control. The applications on the device are web applications that receive the aforementioned HTTP requests and react accordingly. The basic Chromecast runs a pared-down version of the Chrome browser. All this allows for functionality such as pausing and volume control, as well as additional features that app developers are free to implement. There are Google Cast APIs (application programming interfaces) for each compatible operating system. It developed the Google Cast SDK (software development kit) to enable developers to add related functionality to third-party apps that can be used to launch media from the client device to the Chromecast. Google created Google Cast screen-sharing technology to work on top of DIAL, adding a lot more functionality than DIAL could offer alone. Like its brother, the Chromecast with Google TV has an HDMI connector to plug into the TV, but the power cable uses a USB-C connection rather than micro USB. The remote control for each is color coordinated and offers voice control in addition to physical buttons. It comes in three colors: snow, sunrise and sky. It is 6.4 inches (162 millimeters) long, 2.4 inches (61 millimeters) wide and 0.5 inches (12.5 millimeters) thick. The Chromecast with Google TV has a similar form factor, although the device itself is ovular. It comes in two colors - chalk and charcoal. In addition to its HDMI connector, it has a micro USB port for power. It's 6.4 inches long (162 millimeters) from end to end with the cord included, but the device itself is 2 inches (51.8 millimeters) in diameter and half an inch (13.8 millimeters) thick. Although the original Chromecast looked a lot like a bulbous flash drive, the third-generation model is disc-shaped with a cord permanently attached that you plug into your TV. ![]()

![]() ![]() I really love working in that way, so this was a match that played to an aesthetic that I responded to for a long time. ![]() I was doing quite a bit of minor puppet work, especially in the latter parts of High School Sinking. There’s a broad simplicity to High School Sinking, so we wanted to zero in on fewer but more specific drawings. JS: It definitely was one of the first aesthetic decisions that was made in the film. Can you talk about expanding that scale and how that may have approached your limitations? You embraced the opportunity to utilize thin lines in Cryptozoo, as opposed to the thicker lines of My Entire High School Sinking into the Sea, which opens up what you can achieve cinematically. So, roll badly one time, and you just.can't go forward? It's not the fun kind of frustrating, and it's very bad dungeon design because there's nothing fun or engaging to do as an alternative, you just.fail, and have no recourse. If you miss them, there's no harder-but-easier-to-find secondary route, there's no back entrance, and you can only make perception checks once. Which is fine, but.these are passages that are 100% necessary in order to progress forward. ![]() And a lot of necessary passages are like.RAW, you have to specifically investigate one certain stretch of wall, and pass a specific perception check using a specific approach (I don't think Investigation as a specific skill existed yet, or possibly Gygax was, again, just kind of an ironically bad DM) in order to find them. There's nothing special or magical about that trap, so there's absolutely no reason destroying it shouldn't work. TECHNICALLY the RULES say I didn't do it right.but that's not fun to play, it's not fair, and it does not make sense. Which means that, technically, rules-as-written, the WOOD AND CLOCKWORK trap could not be damaged by my dragonborn barbarian and her 23 attack roll with a greataxe. For example, just today we found a trap that, rules-as-written, can only be jammed to prevent it from reloading by passing a DC 20 check with thieves' tools. ![]() ![]() ![]() I quite liked the look, but I wanted the gloss to be more solid, so I repeated the process. This gave me a somewhat of a glossy finish to my die cut. ![]() I poured clear embossing powder onto my die cut and used the heat tool to melt the powder in place. Next, I inked up the stamp with Simon’s clear embossing ink and stamped it making sure to press firmly all over the image to transfer the ink. You can do it the other way around – heat emboss the image first and die cut it later, I wanted to have all of the die-cutting done first so that’s why I did it this way. Next, I aligned the ampersand stamp over the die cut and closed the lid of my MISTI to mount the stamp. To do this, I placed the die-cut into one of the negative cardstock pieces that I had leftover from my die cutting and placed it inside a mini MISTI stamping tool. The black ampersand is where I want to do heat embossing to add some more color and also glossy shine. Next, I’ve stacked them one on top of the other and topped everything with a bold black die-cut. The number 1 step in creating this card is die cutting! I die cut a large ampersand from each of the colored cardstock sheets I had picked. Like this video?

Many people are actually unaware of the fact that basal metabolic rate is the minimum amount of energy required to keep the body alive. You will be presented with a daily calorie amount which is required for your core body activities.īasal metabolic rate is the total amount of energy required to keep the body alive at rest without any physical activity. The BMR calculator will perform the necessary calculations. Men: (10 x KG) + (6.25 x CM) - (5 x YEARS) + 5 How to use a BMR CalculatorĮnter your gender, height in centimeters, weight in kilograms and your age in years. The formula calculates the BMR by multiplying the body mass in kilograms by the appropriate activity factor. The principle states that BMR is directly proportional to total body mass and inversely proportional to square of height. The Harris-Benedict formula is a simple method of estimating the basal metabolic rate of a person. It is based on the principle that a person's basal energy expenditure is directly proportional to their total body mass and inversely proportional to his/her basal metabolic rate. The Harris-Benedict formula is the most widely used method of estimating the BMR of a person. The formula requires 3 key variables in order to make the calculation: age (years), weight (kg) and height (cm). This minimum daily calorie intake is known as the Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR). The harris-benedict formula is an equation to calculate the daily amount of calories our body requires for life-sustaining activities. While the BMR is not considered to be a weight loss calculator, it is useful to calculate calorie deficit and understand the calories being burned while your body is in a resting state. The alternative is also true, if you want to gain weight then you need to eat more calories than the number returned from the BMR calculator. If you consume less calories than the recommended BMR, you will have a calorie deficit. The ketone bodies are what cause the body to go into a state of ketosis.Īnother approach to losing weight without exercise can be achieved by understanding your BMR. When the body metabolizes fat for energy, the ketone bodies (water-soluble molecules) are released into the bloodstream. This happens when the body does not have enough carbohydrates available to use as energy. Ketosis is a state in which the body uses fat as its primary source of energy. While this may seem impossible, nature offers us the solution to achieve this through a process known as ketosis. However, some of the most successful weight loss stories come from people who have lost weight without exercising at all. Most people know that exercising on a regular basis is one of the basic keys to losing weight. The thermic effect of food is similar to the basal metabolic rate. The thermic effect of food is the amount of calories a woman needs to consume to process the food she eats. Basal metabolic rate is also called resting metabolic rate, and it is measured by a machine called a metabolic cart. The basal metabolic rate (BMR) refers to the number of calories a woman needs to consume each day to support the weight she is at right now. The average BMR for women is around 1400 calories per day.īasal metabolic rate for women is different from that of men, and different for women of different ages. On average, women have a lower muscle mass and a more lean figure which means that women need less calories in men. In general, the female body tends to be smaller in size. This number is used to plan and track daily calorie intake and to predict weight gain or weight loss. The BMR is used to calculate a person's daily caloric requirement. The BMR is one of the key components of the body's energy balance, along with physical activity and food intake. It is the minimum amount of energy needed to sustain vital functions-such as breathing and pumping blood-at rest. ![]() The average BMR for men is approximately 1650 calories per day.Ī basal metabolic rate (BMR) is the amount of energy expended per day at rest. A key reason for this is due to muscle mass, larger muscles need more calories to sustain them. Men's daily colorie intake is normally higher than the recommended calorie intake for women. You will instantly get the total number of recommended calories that your body needs for core life-sustaining activities. Enter your weight, heigh and age, and let the calorie calculator perform the calculations for you. ![]() Essentially it is the minimum number of calories required to carry out normal bodily activities such as: breathing, transporting blood around the body, cellular repair and the breakdown of food to nutrients and minerals.Ĭalculating your BMR is easy thanks to the free online calculator. ![]() You can think of BMR as a measurement of the number of calories that your body needs to sustain itself. ![]() ![]() ![]() And on the rare occasion that he messes something up, the Harmony is there to help him get it straight.
