12/29/2023 0 Comments Drunk elephant aha moment![]() The removal of dead skin allows healthy skin to come through which is what gives you this radiance. I do get texture where spots have not fully healed yet and using this serum has helped this process without drying out my skin too much and it boosts radiance. It had helped to reduce some of the redness I suffer from and had also helped with some of the texture. The whole point of Drunk Elephant is that they try to keep the products as natural as possible so there is no strong scent, it is just the ingredients but I don't think this smells great when you really start smelling it closely.Įven after the first time I used the serum, the next day I got so many compliments on my skin. This serum sinks in really quickly and does not leave any feeling on your skin. This is quite a thick serum so you only need to use one pump and it spreads out really well. I know my chin is a problem area so I do have to work on it a little bit more. To apply this I put one pump on the back of my hand and apply it to my face starting with my cheeks, forehead and then focusing on my chin. This is a chemical exfoliant so there are no physical beads but this definitely helps to improve your skin. Alongside the exfoliantants, there are also hydrating ingredients such as White Tea which stops your skin from drying out once you have removed all of the dead skin cells. ![]() The AHA is Glycolic which is usually derived from fruit and this time it seems to have come from Raspberry as that is dubbed the exfoliating ingredient. The name of this product tells you it is a Glycolic acid based serum and on the Space NK website it tells you that it is a 12% Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) with a Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA,) the only BHA which is really used in skincare is Salicylic Acid. All high street acids are within a certain percentage which is pretty low so if it goes wrong, the damage should be minimal but you should always be careful. It is a completely unjust assumption as I have never had a problem like that before. As I said I always feel paranoid about using acids on my skin, even though I've used them before, I always worry that they will burn. (If this list inspires you to add more lotions of all kinds to your skincare stash, don't miss our guides to the best face moisturizers, tinted moisturizers, dry skin moisturizers, gel moisturizers, oil-free moisturizers, and natural body lotions.I'll start off by talking about the night serum as that is the product I have been using first. Here, the 26 best body lotions that'll get your skin looking (and feeling) just right. Where should you even start looking? Don’t stress, I’m basically the body lotion queen, and I’ve pretty much tested every single one under the sun for you. I get it, though-there are a million and one body lotions, creams, and butters on the market. Like, imagine playing skincare Russian roulette and ending up with a goopy lotion that leaves you greasy and sticky? No, thanks. You want a body lotion that’s lightweight, suuuper hydrating, and fast-absorbing. And if you think you can just grab any old body lotion off the store shelf, you're mistaken (sorry, but it's true). I mean, you wouldn’t skip out on face moisturizer, right? I always slather on body lotion the moment I step out of the shower-and it’s definitely how my skin is so freakishly soft all year-round. PSA: Using body lotion is non-negotiable.

12/29/2023 0 Comments Thick vellum paper![]() ![]() It produces deep, deep edges that can sometimes fray and tear. Vellum Parchment Papers: This is a Heavy Weight paper, which less translucent. Bottom Right is a medium weight Momenta folder run through the machine with a silicone embossing mat.Įmbossing 67 lb. Below I think you can see why I adore this weight of paper: Top photo is the Textured Impressions folder. I especially like the ‘Translucent Printing Paper’ from Neenah Paper. TIP: It can be a little harder to find this weight, but it is worth the time. It produces crisp, deep edges, and often gives a frosty appearance that is stunning. That little bit makes a big difference when handling and working with the paper. Vellum Papers: This paper has a little more weight than tracing paper. Bottom Right is a medium weight Momenta folder run through the machine with a silicone embossing mat.Įmbossing 36-40 lb. ![]() ![]() Below are my experiments: Top photo is the Textured Impressions folder. TIP: It can be a little slippery to work with, but the results are worth the care you need to take. You can get a frosty appearance on some designs. You will find crisp edges and pattern lines on the paper. Vellum Tracing Paper: This fine, nearly transparent paper works beautifully when using this technique. Others are Gemini, Anna Griffin, Tim Holtz, Spellbinders, and Evolution, to name a few. I have a Sizzix® Big Shot Pro, a CuddleBug®, and Sidekick®. There are so many different machines out there today. Use your own judgement for positioning.Ī word about the embossing machines. Any size folder that fits the width of your embossing machine is fine. I would love to have some of the letter size folders and the larger machine!! Your only limitation is the size of your machine. I can use the majority of folders as long as one of the dimensions is under 6″. I have seen a few other sizes: 1” border designs, 3”x 4” designed for Artist Trading Cards, and a few larger – 6-1/2″ x 4-1/2″, 8” x 8”, and 8-1/2” x 11”designs. The standard sizes are: 4″x 6″ and 5″x 7″. Most are designed to fit a standard size machine. There are thin folders, Medium folders, thick textured folders, and thicker 3D folders. It has a positive side where the pattern is raised and a negative side where the design is recessed. The folders come in a few different sizes and different styles. It has a pattern or design moulded into it. An embossing folder is made of a heavy plastic which is folded in two. You can see the different levels of translucency in the dark areas under the paper.Ī word about the embossing folders. HINT: Heavier weight papers and cardstocks tend to tear when embossed, but this can be used to your advantage in many ways. TIP: From my research, I prefer a 32-40 lb. I tested several different weights and types – Vellums, Tracing Paper, and a translucent Parchment Paper. You can even find Heavyweight Translucent Vellum Cardstock. Not using that! Today, there are many faux vellum and vellum-type papers out there in several different weights and colors. Traditional Vellum is made from calfskin. For our tutorial we are using manmade Vellum Papers for the Arts and Crafts market. Trimmed to size of machineĪ word about the Vellum. I urge you to experiment and determine what works best in your machine. Deep embossing plates also work well in this process. I actually prefer a busy pattern with vellum. The translucent papers develop a deeply etched texture that just screams to be used in your paper art! Depending on the embossing folder you choose, the paper becomes frosty in some places, giving it another layered nuance. The loveliness of these papers when embossed makes me giddy.

I have been embossing almost everything that I can find lately. 12/29/2023 0 Comments Humerus fractureYou be able to go home and be seen as an outpatient, typically at a week or two after injury. We will give you strong painkillers as your shoulder will be sore for some time. You will be given a collar and cuff sling and advised to rest your shoulder. What will happen if I don’t have surgery? Your surgeon will tell you if he thinks you should consider surgery and, if so, what is involved. Your functional expectations (work/hobbies/sports etc) and physical health The quality of your bone and your rotator cuff (often age-related) In general, the more parts, the worse the injury, but some 2 part fractures also require surgery. Fractures can be described as 2,3 or 4-part depending on the position of the two tuberosities, the humeral head and the shaft. Your fracture pattern – (how many parts is it in? how displaced is it? where in the bone is the fracture?) Factors that influence the decision to offer surgery include: Some fractures will however benefit from surgery. Unfortunately, however your injury is treated, proximal humerus fractures take a long time to get over (a year or so) – surgical fixation does not necessarily shorten this period. For many fracture patterns, the outcome of non-operative management is equivalent to the surgical outcome at two years after injury. Most proximal humerus fractures do not require surgery. Will I have to have an operation to fix my proximal humerus fracture? Sometimes a CT scan is performed to assess more closely the displacement of the fracture fragments, damage to the articular surface and potential for surgical reconstruction. X-rays taken in the Emergency department will confirm the fracture. ![]() Your history and examination findings will be highly suggestive. Sometimes nerves are damaged at the same time and this can cause numbness and weakness in the arm and shoulder region. When the proximal humerus breaks, the attached rotator cuff tendons often pull the fracture fragments in different directions to cause displacement.Ī broken proximal humerus is generally very painful patients develop significant bruising and swelling that can go into the chest as well as down the arm. They become more common as we get older as our bones become weaker. It also serves as the attachment area for your rotator cuff tendons and tendons of other muscles in your shoulder girdle.įractures to your proximal humerus may follow a shoulder dislocation or a fall onto your shoulder or arm. Your proximal humerus forms the ball of your shoulder’s 'ball and socket'. 12/29/2023 0 Comments Townscaper tricksThe writing is awkward much of the time and occasionally doesn’t make sense, possibly because of imperfect localization. Unfortunately, the game is not really doing it for me. I’m a big fan of those types of games, and I was also intrigued by the idea of playing as a whistleblower. Rubicon is a text-based adventure that takes place partially on a phone interface. I was excited to see a new game this week from La Belle Games, the makers of The Wanderer: Frankenstein’s Creature, which was a beautiful game through and through. If that doesn’t bother you, or the poorly situated controls, by all means give it a try. That basically killed any motivation I had to continue playing. Neither was close to where I was when I wanted to take a break, so I had to backtrack quite a bit to save. And in the half hour I spent with the game, I only came across two save points. You can’t just quit at any point and assume it will save your progress. But the game has an old-school save system. So I wanted to take a break and try again later. I was stuck at some point and couldn’t see the way forward. I was still willing to try and play it that way, but the save system is what ultimately killed my interest. There is no comfortable way for me to hold my iPad and hit those buttons. ![]() On my iPad, the left and right movement buttons and stuffed in the left corner, with the jump button in the right corner. But the controls make it an exercise in frustration. Even the gameplay itself can be enjoyable. And I do love the animation, atmosphere, and voice acting. At just $1.99, it was easy to take a chance on it. Then, out of nowhere, it popped up on the App Store this week. It had been so long since it’s initial release and we heard nothing about it coming to iOS, so I just assumed it was never happening. Pinstripe is another game that first released on PC, though it was initially announced for mobile as well. I wrote a full review here if you want to learn more and I’ve also picked up a few more tricks since then, which you can see in the videos below. It’s just so easy to get into and completely engrossing. It’s a lot of fun, whether you’re someone who likes to spend hours in city/building games, or someone like me who never does. ![]() You basically tap the screen to create sidewalks and houses, and as you keep building on them, the algorithm decides how they should look. It also looks just as great as Bad North, but it’s less of a game and more of a toy. And now that it’s out on iOS and Android, I can confirm that it does indeed work beautifully on mobile. ![]() Townscaper first released on PC, but it always looked like a perfect fit for touchscreens. Oskar St╬ô├╢┬úΓö£├ªlberg made the super stylish Bad North, so he really knows his stuff. I’d been looking forward to the chill city-builder, Townscaper, ever since I saw the developer teasing it with GIFs on his Twitter account. There’s also a lot going on in Genshin Impact still, so that’s eating up some of my time, though not quite as much as the previous week that brought the new update. My personal favorite is Towscaper, even though it’s not really a game but more of a toy. This has been a pretty busy week with some notable releases. Hi everyone, and welcome back to My Week Unwrapped, where I discuss all the games I’ve been playing over the last seven days. 12/29/2023 0 Comments Adobe cc 2021 crack reddit mac![]() So without further ado, here are the CC 2019 links!

What we are saying is this: Hoxxes IV is a very bad place. A planet of plutonium-fanged worms that would like nothing better than to take up residence in your sinus cavities. The problem, however, is that it is also the home of one of the most dense and diverse collections of hostile alien flora and fauna ever encountered. DEEP ROCK GALACTIC has had their eyes on this awful rock for a long time, because it is so unreasonably rich in valuable and rare materials. It is a simple fact of life - when you're attempting to establish a profitable mining operation on the most hostile planet in the galaxy, sometimes things don’t go to plan.Īnd when all other measures have failed - a mine suddenly gone dark, or a particularly heavy alien infestation is uncovered - that is when we send in the DWARVES. ![]() And when it comes to the MOST DANGEROUS DIGS, we have long relied on the tenacity, strength, and sheer underground survivability of the stout DWARVES.

You will also probably want that proxy to be a forward proxy (see ). For limiting Internet access to ShotGrid, you probably want to use a content filtering proxy (see ), which allows ShotGrid traffic to pass and blocks the rest. If you are looking at implementing your own solution, you could set up a Web proxy server (see ). Many professional products /technologies are available and may be already in use at your studio. It is a good idea to consult your IT Department, as they may already have part of the solution in place. Depending on the size of your studio, you may already be using such a technology for other purposes. There are many types of proxies, and the actual implementation can vary greatly. That will depend on your studio’s infrastructure. However, ShotGrid is a cloud platform that has a wide range of FQDNs, so any allow list approach represents a challenge. In most cases, isolating ShotGrid access using a proxy will appease your security experts.īehind a proxy, ShotGrid Web App, SG Toolkit, RV, and SG Desktop should work normally.

No end in sight but progress is encouraging. It will take time but One Spirit is diligently chipping away. With well over an hours drive to Rapid City, there are extremely few jobs.
