Make new memories quotes8/25/2023 ![]() “I acknowledge the privilege of being alive in a human body at this moment, endowed with senses, memories, emotions, thoughts, and the space of mind in its wisdom aspect.” – Alex Grey Quotes For Beautiful Memories “Memories are like mulligatawny soup in a cheap restaurant. “Every passion borders on the chaotic, but the collector’s passion borders on the chaos of memories.” – Walter Benjaminĥ9. Going swimming, roaming around in Defence Colony, cycling in its beautiful, wide lanes, and enjoying good food.” – Sidharth Malhotraĥ8. “I have some really nice memories of Delhi. “History is a cyclic poem written by time upon the memories of man.” – Percy Bysshe Shelleyĥ7. You can wear makeup, you can dress yourself up, but fragrance gives a powerful aspect to how you can present yourself that you can’t necessarily get any other way.” – Hari Nefĥ6. I feel like fragrances are able to transport, stir emotion, and bring up memories. “Fragrance is important to me because of its emotional dimension. Memories of dust in my sneakers and humming whitewalls down a hill called Monkey.” – Jerry Spinelliĥ5. “Ideas come from ordinary, everyday life. “I have a lot of great memories, but I can’t imagine anything more exciting than the life I have now.” – Rob Loweĥ4. “Memories are just stories we tell ourselves about our past and that’s often why they don’t match when we’ve shared the same experiences with someone.” – John Slatteryĥ3. “So much of what we do is ephemeral and quickly forgotten, even by ourselves, so it’s gratifying to have something you have done linger in people’s memories.” – John WilliamsĤ3. “You can’t recover memories of a missing event. “Music evokes so many feelings in us, memories, nostalgia, things that are connected to our past.” – Olga Kurylenko Quotes About Change “The richness of life lies in memories we have forgotten.” – Cesare PaveseĤ0. The memories which lie within us are not carved in stone not only do they tend to become erased as the years go by, but often they change, or even increase by incorporating extraneous features.” – Primo Leviģ9. “Human memory is a marvelous but fallacious instrument. Whether it was our mom’s homemade lasagna or a memorable chocolate birthday cake, food has a way of transporting us back to the past.” – Homaro Cantuģ8. “Most of us have fond memories of food from our childhood. “Travel is a new experience that can transport you out of your everyday routine to create memories with the ones you love.” – Brian Cheskyģ7. “A stone is ingrained with geological and historical memories.” – Andy Goldsworthyģ6.

Best multi tool for bicycle touring8/25/2023 ![]() Pasta is a great source of carbs, and also has a reasonable amount of protein. I'm going to include spaghetti in the pasta category (something which is easier to carry for a cyclist). When it comes to buying food for cycle touring, you'd be hard pressed to anything better!ĭave's Note: Where peanut butter is not available, you may find other types of nut butter like Tahini. The fat content may put people off from eating it on a daily basis in regular life, but on a bicycle tour, its all going to get burned off pretty quickly. I don't really know of any other foods that have such an amazing cost / calorie /weight ratio and is also ready to eat. Pictured below is the nutritional breakdown of a 500g jar of peanut butter available to me here in Greece. You can even eat it by itself straight from the tub! It's also a ready to eat food that needs no preparation or cooking gear. Hopefully you don't have any nut allergies!Ĭalorie dense, peanut butter spread thickly over bread is an ideal way to keep the body fuelled. If there is one bike touring superfood, it's peanut butter! This product may not be available in every country in the world, but where it is, cyclists should definitely add it to their shopping list. Let's take a look in more details at these bikepacking food examples, and see why they are so good for long distance cycling nutrition. So, without further ado: Bikepacking Food List Bicycle touring staples, so to speak.įinally, as with all my bicycle touring tips, this article has been put together drawing on my experiences of 40,000 kms cycling all over the world. Regardless, this list of the best foods for bicycle touring is at the core of the majority of bicycle tourists diets. Half the fun of visiting new countries is trying out the local delicacies and new foods after all! Additionally, plenty of vegans get on fine without some of the items below.Īnother thing to remember, is that not all foods are available in all countries. So, keep in mind that I would not suggest you subsist entirely off of the following foods I have suggested are good for bikepacking. Also, I like to taste the food of the country I am cycling through, so don't always cook for myself. ![]() Basically, I can eat pretty much anything. A good source of carbs is required to keep the body fuelled, along with protein to rebuild muscles, and fat as a slow burner.īefore I go any further, I should mention that I am a strong believer in a balanced diet, and eat fish and meat. The choice of bike camping food will vary from person to person, but the fundamentals are the same. In the case of cyclists on multi week/month/year trips, they also need to be cheap! Its hardly surprising then, that the same foods crop up again and again in the panniers of bicycle tourists. They also need to be relatively light weight, and keep well on the road. The best foods for bicycle touring need to replace those lost calories quickly. The bicycle may be a machine, but your body is the engine, and that engine needs fuel. As you might imagine, I burned off hundreds of thousands of calories in the process, and these all needed replacing!Īs such, I've worked out what the best bikepacking meals and foods are for me in all sorts of situations and countries. These tours were all cycled solo and unsupported, taking months to complete. The longest bike tours were from England to South Africa, and Alaska to Argentina, but there have been many others as well. My name is Dave, and I've bike toured tens of thousands of miles all over the world. This guide on what to eat when cycling long distance on a bike tour explains the foods I choose and why. ![]() There will also most likely be some seasonal fresh fruit and vegetables tucked away somewhere as well. ![]() These are the most popular bike touring food items you're likely to find in a long distance cyclist's panniers, mine included:

Billy mays sticky putty8/25/2023 ![]() It’s the “if I can’t see them, how will I know they’re working?” mindset. There’s a long-standing myth that people aren’t productive when they’re working from home. ![]() How do our people have fun not just at work, but in doing the work? Are our people finding meaning and purpose in the work they do each day? These are the questions we need to be asking if we want to motivate our top people to stay. ![]() Now more than ever, we need to find ways to make sure the people we hire are in love with our business problem, not with our cutting-edge facilities and perks. Now that everyone’s logging in from home, leaders have to ask themselves what their employee value propositions truly are. Harness intrinsic motivation.įor years, the way to attract and retain talent in the tech world has often been through extrinsic motivators like bonuses, rewards, ping pong tables, snack rooms, and free lunch in the on-site gourmet cafeteria. Here are four ways for HR leaders to move beyond that initial crisis response, establish resilience, and build and maintain greater organizational agility to help us weather whatever’s coming next. The question before us now is how to shift to long-term thinking and keep our newly remote workforces engaged and aligned around the work that matters most to our organizations. Writing in Harvard Business Review, Lindsay McGregor and Neel Doshi stated, “During crises such as Covid-19, people often tend to focus more on tactical work-answering the right number of tickets, or following the approved project plan-rather than adapting to solve the bigger, newer problems the business may be facing.”īut when a crisis drags on for months, a focus on tactical work will only keep us treading water. Here we are, almost seven months later, with no end to remote working insight. When office buildings first cleared out in March, many thought we’d be working from home for a few weeks at most, just long enough to “flatten the curve” of Covid-19 transmission. The predictable result of facing so many unprecedented challenges in such short succession-both nationally and globally-is default to short-term thinking. Of all the memes I’ve seen about the year 2020, one of my favorites features infomercial star Billy Mays, with this caption: “2020 every second: BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE!” This article originally appeared on HR.com.

Espresso vs lungo vs ristretto8/25/2023 I know! I promised you they were different, and they are. It’s also sometimes called stretched coffee. Lungo is the Italian word for ‘long,’ which refers to a type of espresso that takes longer to pull. If you click this link and make a purchase, we earn a commission at no additional cost to you. Of course, there are endless espresso-based drinks and combinations that you can create! What is Lungo? It’s for people that may want to avoid the heavy creams but don’t always enjoy the strong flavor of espresso. You add the espresso to the steamed milk in this drink, then top it with foam.Īnother well-known espresso-based drink is the Americano, simply an espresso with a hot water adjustment at the end. There’s also a latte macchiato, which is a latte in reverse. Or cold milk and whipped cream if you’re ordering a frappuccino. ![]() This drink is made with equal parts espresso, steamed milk, and foam. The taste of espresso only improves in many of our favorite drinks! Perhaps the most well-known is a latte, simply a shot of espresso topped with steamed milk and a dollop of foam.Īnother fan favorite is a cappuccino. It wasn’t until the piston pump was developed for the original designs that hot, boiling water was forced over the grounds, and the rich, concentrated Italian-style coffee we love was born. It resulted in a slightly burnt flavor but still delivered the same punch of caffeine. The earliest espresso machines forced steam over a dose of ground coffee (usually around 20 grams of coffee grounds) rather than pressure. ![]() Origins of EspressoĮspresso didn’t even exist until the late 1800s! Its name derives from the Italian word esprimere, which means ‘to express’ or ‘to press out.’ You can make espresso from a wide variety of coffee beans, but because of the volume and method of brewing, it tends to be thicker and richer in flavor than regular black coffee.

Cerwin vega amp reviews8/25/2023 ![]() You need a good amplifier rated 10-100,000 Hz, 4 ohms stable, and 20-20,000 Hz evenly across the spectrum. I’m using a Yamaha A-S1100SL (check the specs on Amazon), which puts out 90 watts per channel, and they sound great even at low volumes. They’ll play very well with a smaller amplifier, but the more power, the better. You must feed them at least 150 watts to obtain the best sound. They’re really big and heavy and weigh over 90 pounds each. They are protected with slow-blow fuses in the back, which I have blown several times, yet they sound fantastic. They have insane bass and beautiful crisp mids and highs. I got these from my stepdad, who bought them on eBay for around $800. I honestly have never witnessed better speakers that weren’t professional DJ equipment and cost orders of extent more money. I would almost bet my life that you cannot touch the dynamics of this speaker without getting in the $10k plus range. The tweeter horn delivers a ton of clear, pure, airy highs. It was only used on two models – the 380SE and the PD-9.ħ.5″ midranges deliver plenty of midranges they sound extremely dynamic and smooth. This is a serious woofer with an incredibly tight, detailed slab-cracking bass.Īlso, the woofer cone is pleated and rigid. The 15.25″ woofer has a pleated rubber surround (not the normal rolled foam) that never needs replacing. They look very modern w/ the MTM Design (Mid-Tweeter-Mid), the black felt on the front baffle(nice touch), the poly-treated mid’s, black cabinets, grill covers with the red stripe, and level adjustments. These were some of the first speakers that were digital-ready with the introduction of CD players. Since they are 4OHM speakers, I figure he was really pushing about 250W through them. This was far from ideal for these babies, but they still sound pretty fair, and that bass bumped pretty well. He was pushing them with an old Pioneer 125RMS 8ohm receiver he bought in ’94 for $400. I listened to CV 380 SEs many times as my uncle bought them when he was in HS from the local audio store, back around ’91 or so. The mids just exist, which is what they should be. The lows are excellent the highs are crisp. These Cerwin Vega’s are really a work of art! Large, solid, and very pleasing to the eye, not to mention the incredible soundstage. You don’t get this from a subwoofer made to rumble like thunder. It’s a different experience to get strong bass from the front part because it gives a different base that presses in the chest during explosions. With Cerwin Vega, you get relatively clear sound and heavy bass, which is quite cool to listen to, especially when you play pop/r&b and similar music, even with movies. However, when it comes to playing in stereo with a powerful and heavy sound, they are very good at this if you have a sufficiently powerful amplifier. This is true to some extent because a pair of speakers in upper price ranges or maybe even in the same price range prioritize other things than having good dynamics with heavy bass.ĬV doesn’t have a clean and detailed sound, as, for example, old JBL speakers, which I reviewed in one of the previous articles about the best vintage JBL speakers. It has supplied audio solutions for many major dealers, including Fender, Vox, and Sunn.Ĭerwin Vega is occasionally a bit underestimated by some people who think of them as completely unmusical and nothing more than bass force. Qualities of Cerwin Vega Vintage SpeakersĬerwin Vega manufactures and distributes high-performance loudspeaker systems for professional, home, and mobile audio solutions. In this article, you can read about the best vintage Cerwin Vega speakers and how I ranked them according to my listening experience. Some folks complain about the treble in CV speakers, and of course, there are speakers with better treble sound, but considering Cerwin Vega’s price, it surpasses expectations! They really aren’t bad. And the CV always had its own special character.Ĭerwin Vega is hard to beat for its price if you like large speakers and playing loud. But if you like a true-to-life, airy, pure sound where even the tiniest details stand out, some companies did make better speakers. Well, the drivers are well-made and similar to many other well-regarded brands. What is it regarding that brand? Is it their West Coast Sound heritage? Is it poor execution of good quality drivers or merely poor quality drivers? Are there any really good vintage 2 or 3-way Cerwin Vegas? I noticed that vintage Cerwin Vega is a brand that rarely receives positive reviews. I have bought and sold all kinds of speakers over the years since I was in the DJ business, and I know a lot about sound.
