![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Now when I purchased mine and connected it to my Xbox Series X for the first time, it automatically installed the Dolby Atmos app and gave me a six-month trial of it without me manually installing the app or signing up to it though friends who picked this headset up after me have said they each received a lesser length trial, so perhaps this was a launch-based perk. Now the Dolby sound schemes require installing of their own apps to your console and they will require purchasing an additional license in order to keep having the option to use them. With the Xbox Accessories App on console and PC, there is a basic equalizer that can be adjusted to personalize the sound, but the true power of this headset really is when you set it up to use any one of the three sound options the Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One consoles can use starting with the Windows Sonic tech and then either Dolby Atmos or DTS Headphone: X. The sound quality with the headset straight out of the box can be hit and miss at first due to the high level of bass the headset naturally has. The clarity of the microphone is sharp and crisp which is perfect for those hectic party chatting when the action gets heated in MP games but also made a big difference when I stream from my Xbox Series X with the reaction from viewers believing I was actually using a studio mic plugged into my laptop rather than a console gaming headset, it really is a fantastic microphone and the bar being short was never an issue for me and was actually quite nice not to have a microphone constantly in my eyeline when gaming with an auto mute setting via the Xbox Accessories App so that when you are not speaking, the microphone will mute until you speak again. There is a USB C port on the back of the right ear cup for charging and that is it, simplicity in design but incredible in performance which brings me to the microphone first, which is quite honestly the best microphone I have had on any gaming headset I have used. In fact, the only two buttons on this headset is the mute button for the microphone and the power on and pairing activation button also on the left side of the headset. The Microphone is also different in that is is shorter, almost half the length of a conventional microphone bar and can be curled up to move it out of the way. The refreshing design however means that the dials are on the outside of the ear cups, with the right dial controlling overall headset volume, with the word Xbox etched into the outside whilst the left ear cup dial manages party chat and game audio mixing. The reason for this is because there are none of the usual digital button setups that would add quite a bit of weight to the ear cups, instead Xbox have decided to go with a classic dial system to control volume and party chat/game mixing. Now the headset itself is mostly plastic, which some may complain about given the not exactly cheap £90 asking price for the headset but I really do not mind as the headset looks nice and more importantly, it is comfortable to wear because it is quite light compared to other wireless headsets. Instead, we are hit by the first lovely feature that this headset will use the same wireless connection technology that allows the Xbox Controller to pair with your console, which for me is a complete game changer because I already have quite enough things connected to the USB ports of my Series X. The other thing you may notice if you have used other wireless headsets is that there is no USB dongle you must plug into your console’s USB port in order to connect your headset, something that has been a previous pet peeve of mine when using a wireless headset on console. The first thing that struck me was the how the headset is clearly modelled in the standard black and green colour scheme of Xbox, and I really like it as it goes very nicely with my Xbox Series X but also not so bad if you have the Series S. The presentation of the Wireless Headset is exceptionally clean and precise with no fancy extra stylings as you see the box, open the box and the headset is presented with only the stand warranty and setup guides along with the USB C Charging cable. ![]()

The controller firmware update, which can be applied using the company’s Upgrade Tool, will allow gamers to use 8BitDo’s supported controllers wirelessly with any iOS, iPadOS, macOS, or tvOS game that has adopted Apple’s game controller APIs.

Richard Starkey was born on 7 July 1940 at 9 Madryn Street in Dingle, an inner-city area of Liverpool. ![]() ![]() Starr's birthplace in Madryn Street, Dingle, Liverpool, in May 2013 In 2020, he was cited as the wealthiest drummer in the world, with a net worth of $350 million. ![]() He was inducted twice into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, as a Beatle in 1988 and as a solo artist in 2015, and appointed a Knight Bachelor in the 2018 New Year Honours for services to music. In 2011, Rolling Stone readers named him the fifth-greatest drummer of all time. In 1999, he was inducted into the Modern Drummer Hall of Fame. In his opinion, his finest recorded performance was on the Beatles' " Rain". He also influenced various modern drumming techniques, such as the matched grip, tuning the drums lower, and using muffling devices on tonal rings. Starr's playing style, which emphasised feel over technical virtuosity, influenced many drummers to reconsider their playing from a compositional perspective. Since 1989, he has toured with thirteen variations of Ringo Starr & His All-Starr Band. Conductor" during the first season of the PBS children's television series Shining Time Station. Starr has featured in numerous documentaries, hosted television shows, narrated the first two series of the children's television program Thomas & Friends and portrayed "Mr. He achieved commercial and critical success with his 1973 album Ringo, which was a top-ten release in both the UK and the US. His most successful UK single was " Back Off Boogaloo", which peaked at number two. After the band's break-up in 1970, he released several successful singles including the US top-ten hit " It Don't Come Easy", and number ones " Photograph" and " You're Sixteen". In addition to the Beatles' films, Starr has acted in numerous others. After achieving moderate success in the UK and Hamburg, he quit the Hurricanes when he was asked to join the Beatles in August 1962, replacing Pete Best. When the Beatles formed in 1960, Starr was a member of another Liverpool group, Rory Storm and the Hurricanes. In 1957, he co-founded his first band, the Eddie Clayton Skiffle Group, which earned several prestigious local bookings before the fad succumbed to American rock and roll around early 1958. Soon afterwards, Starr became interested in the UK skiffle craze and developed a fervent admiration for the genre. He briefly held a position with British Rail before securing an apprenticeship as a machinist at a Liverpool school equipment manufacturer. Starr was afflicted by life-threatening illnesses during childhood, with periods of prolonged hospitalisation. He also wrote and sang the Beatles songs " Don't Pass Me By" and " Octopus's Garden", and is credited as a co-writer of four others. Starr occasionally sang lead vocals with the group, usually for one song on each album, including " Yellow Submarine" and " With a Little Help from My Friends".

From the BBC programme Front Row, 31 December 2008 ![]() ![]() ![]() It took longer than the recipe stated to reduce the red wine and then chicken broth (instead of milk). – added about 1 tablespoon of vegan butter at the very end (dairy free and for richness) – added about 1/4 teaspoon of instant coffee (for some flavor depth) – added 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes – added 1.5 teaspoons soy sauce (for umami flavor) – reduced the italian seasoning to 1/2 teaspoon – excluded the milk (to make it dairy free) and substituted chicken broth I used this recipe as a base for a Bolognese sauce but changed some of the ingredients. NOT diced tomatoes by the way b/c they are chemically treated to not break down, unless you pulse in a blender or food processor. But whatever brand of San Marzano Tomatoes you like is fine. I use ONLY San Marzano whole Italian tomatoes. One tip is to have the milk at room temp or slightly warmed in the microwave. I THINK turning up the heat just before adding the wine MIGHT quicken up the time in cooking off time of the wine ? T then I turn the heat BACK DOWN and proceed as written. Then I turn up the heat somewhat to deglaze the pan with the wine, making sure to scraping up any browned pieces( fond) on the bottom of the pan. (Just a guess ) After that I make a bare spot in the pan and add the tomato paste & brown that very briefly.I think the brief browning adds a bit more flavor. & 2) It think ? it eliminates draining off the SOME of flavor of onion carrot & celery. 1) It eliminted trying to spoon off excess fat later. Then I drain off all but 1 to 2 tablespoons of fat. ! The only thing I change is the ORDER in the directions.ġ) I reverse the order of step 1&2. Reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave, stirring occasionally until hot.Īn excellent recipe worth saving.A tightly sealed zippered freezer bag works as well. Freeze for up to 3 months in a sealed container, leaving about an inch for expansion.Store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 4 days.This is a great pasta sauce to make ahead, dishes with tomatoes and spices “meld and marry.” as they sit and have even better flavor (like a chili recipe). And for dessert? Why not make this yummy tiramisu? So delicious!.SALAD Round out the meal with an easy tossed salad or Italian Salad for a perfect Italian feast any night of the week!.BREAD homemade garlic bread is a must! (try this recipe for the BEST homemade garlic butter!).Serve this dish with the same sides you’d add to spaghetti and meatballs. (Just be sure to check your spices and other ingredients.) If you want to offer gluten-free pasta, this sauce would work well with it. I like to serve this bolognese over pappardelle or tagliatelle, but any type of long pasta is great. Add salt and pepper and parmesan, serve and enjoy! What To Serve With It While the sauce simmers, cook pasta according to the directions. Simmer: Add remaining ingredients (per recipe below) and allow it to simmer until thick.Next, add the milk and allow that to simmer away too. Add Wine/Milk: Add the wine and let it simmer away.Cook Veggies & Meat: Brown the chopped veggies and the meat, then drain off any fat.This bolognese sauce takes time to make but it really is easy! Once the prep work is done this recipe just simmers away until thickened. This sauce is great over pasta, and it’s also a delicious addition to homemade lasagna or even a favorite when added to baked casseroles like ziti! It may sound unusual, but these ingredients add a distinct flavor, a bit of richness, and some sweetness. So, what makes Bolognese different than a typical spaghetti sauce? While both are tomato-based meat sauces made with garlic and onion, bolognese also includes the addition of celery and carrot plus a little bit of milk. From a typical marinara to this Bolognese sauce, homemade is always best! What is Bolognese? Who doesn’t love pasta with homemade meat sauce? It’s got a special taste of home that you just can’t get from a jar. This recipe freezes and reheats well, making it the perfect weeknight meal!

![]() ![]() Together, roof and porro prisms are used in nearly every version of modern binoculars from WWII onward. Similar to the porro prism, it allowed for collapsible binoculars with enhanced viewing capabilities. This invention would be accompanied by the roof prism design, patented by Carl Zeiss in 1905. By implementing a coordinated series of prisms, Porro could make binoculars that gave a wider field of vision, greater viewing depth, and clearer images. In 1854, Italian optician and inventor Ignazio Porro patented a reflecting prism design that would change the course of binoculars forever. It wouldn’t be until the widespread adoption of a different prism style that military binoculars would be highly regarded for their efficacy. These field glasses were quite bulky, though, and prone to the same problems of a small field of vision that any Galilean telescope is plagued by. The turn of the century saw aluminum production come into its own, allowing for wider production of military field glasses - large Galilean binoculars with rugged construction that could magnify 5-6X. Once durable binoculars could be made affordably enough, European and American militaries quickly pounced on the tactical advantages given by enhanced vision capabilities. ![]() Combined with optical improvements that allowed for multiple ranges of magnification, this led to increases in efficiency that would be adopted for military use. Lemiére quickly improved on this design, offering an extra bridge that allowed for adjustable focusing.īy the late 1800s, widespread adoption of aluminum processing methods led to even lighter weight opera glasses, including folding and collapsible glasses. Voigtländer would go on to patent the combination of two spyglasses in 1823, connecting them with a metal bridge to allow for easy holding and double-eyed viewing. They would lay the foundation for the next step of binocular evolution: Opera glasses. Includes harness strap, binocular case, and two bino tether straps.Essentially a collapsible, handheld-sized telescope, the spyglass allowed for magnifications of 2-3X.Extra storage space: Two mesh side pockets and zippered back pocket.Bungee and nylon tab secure the full coverage lid.Fully adjustable straps for a comfortable fit. ![]() Larger binoculars with 50mm+ objective lenses are a much tighter fit and not all fit in to allow a secure closure of the case lid. *Testing shows that roof prism binoculars up to and including those with a 42mm objective lens usually fit well into the Guide Binopack. ![]() The side pockets, zippered pocket on the rear face and elastic sleeves on the top all hold additional smaller items.

The reason being the petrol car’s internal combustion engine (ICE). Even if both hybrids and regular cars source their power from fossil fuels, the hybrid will still be more environmentally friendly. If you are environmentally conscious, a hybrid will still have the drawback of having emissions every time you drive, even though it is still less than a regular car. Emissions Photo by Larry James Baylas on Unsplash Even so, the savings can be worth it, especially if your commute is shorter than the battery range! You could rely solely on the battery for your daily commute and charge your car at night, saving the petrol for longer journeys. That is unless the driver chooses to rely solely on the petrol engine, effectively making it a regular car.įor example, the Prius Prime has a battery range of 40km which means past the 40km mark the car will switch to the petrol engine. If there are no chargers or places where one can charge, the range of the plug-in hybrid is cut in half with half the range reserved to return to the charging station. Refuelling is not only quick and easy, the ability for the petrol engine to charge the battery when in use is a major benefit to both range and fuel economy.Ĭonversely, the biggest obstacles to plug-in hybrid adoption is still charging infrastructure. ![]() One of the main advantages of the hybrid over the plug-in hybrid is that there is no need to charge your car overnight or stop to charge when the battery is dead or dying.
