Roland is a fellow TomTom HOME developer but he is working on the C++ part of it and has relatively little knowledge about the XUL/JavaScript part. While we are still solving these issues, Roland Boon already started working on an add-on to convert Google Earth points into TomTom Overlay points. Fortunately, I have four (4!) hours allocated during the current development cycle to create some documentation :) Actually, there is only one user-visible add-on and virtually no documentation on creating add-ons for TomTom HOME. ![]() Most available add-ons right now are device emulators that will install automatically if you click “Operate my GO,” those don’t even show up in the add-on manager (yet?). We are still in the process of discussing how we can support installing add-ons from third-party sites while keeping security in mind. Also, currently you can only install add-ons from the TomTom server, anything else will have to be installed manually. The extension manager UI still needs some improvement, in particular updating add-ons should be easier. This doesn’t mean that the work is done, it actually just started. It has been a bumpy ride ( bug 407329) but with TomTom HOME 2.2 end users can now install add-ons as well. Still, the usual add-on manager user interface don’t fit into the TomTom HOME concept which is why only developers have been using add-ons until recently ( DOM Inspector, Venkman, Live HTTP Headers, they have all been ported over). This has many advantages for us, amongst others - support for add-ons comes with the platform, almost for free.

These are some of the most influential female vocalists of the 2000s from a variety of genres that have defined the decade with their innovative sound, lyricism and image that continues to inspire artists today.

The decade saw an explosive pop and hip-hop boom with artists such as Eminem, Kanye West, and OutKast being major influences. MP3 players and early smartphones enabled easier access for music consumption on the go, leading to a steady decline of physical sales, forever altering music distribution. The 2000s was defined culturally by its widespread use of the internet that contributed to the globalization that’s ever present in society today early social media websites such as Myspace and Friendster allowed for individualism and connectivity while music sharing websites shifted the industry economically, allowing for an easier means of storing, recording and distributing music. ![]() There’s no option to skip no options at all – just play a few games, complete with the bizarre live-action intros of improbably peppy actors demonstrating what to do – and then it’ll deign to unlock the entire collection.

If the county board had been removed, the state board would have appointed a temporary administrator. Steps Trump took as he tried to overturn his election loss, including a phone call to Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, led Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to open an ongoing investigation into whether Trump and others illegally meddled in the state’s election.Ī takeover legally required state officials to find the county violated state election law or rules three times in the previous two election cycles and hadn’t fixed violations, or to find county officials had shown “nonfeasance, malfeasance, or gross negligence” in two elections over two years. Both faced threats after Trump and his supporters falsely accused them of misconduct. “False claims and knowingly false allegations made against these election workers have done tremendous harm.”īoard member Ed Lindsey asked that the board issue letters to former Fulton election workers Ruby Freeman and Wandrea “Shaye” Moss stating the case had been dismissed. “We are glad the State Election Board finally put this issue to rest," Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said in a statement. Those suitcases were the normal carrying cases for ballots. They included a claim that poll workers discovered forged ballots printed on different paper and claims that election workers improperly counted “suitcases” full of ballots. The board on Tuesday also voted to dismiss a series of fraud claims relating to that election. In phone calls to state election officials and in public comments, Trump made unfounded claims of widespread election fraud in Fulton "I’m proud of the work of Fulton County and what we’ve achieved in the last few years and feel fully confident moving into the future that we’ll be setting the standard for how elections need to be run here and across the country," said Cathy Woolard, the outgoing chair of the Fulton County election board.įormer President Donald Trump had zeroed in on the county after he lost Georgia by a slim margin in the November 2020 general election. or are we going to say it’s time to change?” said State Election Board Chair Bill Duffey.įulton County officials noted that the review panel found no violations of state law or rules across nine elections that it monitored. “The question is, are we going to draw a line in the sand and say let us go, be done with this, and leave us alone, which is a little bit of what I’m hearing. Multiple board members said that they want the county to continue to work on improvements before the 2024 election and not to backslide on work already done. ![]() But it's unclear whether they care enough to even consider such an intervention.

While eight ounces of water can be converted to one cup of water, the same can’t be done for eight ounces of sugar - make sense? How to measure baking ingredients properly Ounces are measured by weight, and fluid ounces are measured by volume. But if a recipe lists a wet ingredient in ounces, you can measure it in a liquid measuring cup. If a recipe lists dry ingredients in ounces, you’ll need a kitchen scale to measure it. What's the difference between an ounce and a fluid ounce? And measuring wet ingredients in a dry cup is difficult, since measuring right to the rim can lead to spillage. A liquid measuring cup doesn’t allow you to level off your dry ingredients, so it’s really hard to measure exactly. Technically dry and liquid measuring cups measure the same, but it’s not a perfect science. But others, especially if you are baking, can be completely ruined. Some recipes are forgiving enough that you can get away with it. Use the right cups for dry and wet ingredientsĪt some point, most home cooks have dumped flour into a liquid measuring cup or measured milk in a dry measuring cup. That just means taking the flat side of a butter knife and running it across the top of the full cup or spoon, so any excess is sloughed off. Unless the recipe calls for “a heaping tablespoon” or “a generous cup,” you’ll want to level off the dry ingredients you’re measuring. Level off your dry ingredients for the right measurement This is particularly useful for baking, which often demands exact measurements. While it’s not absolutely necessary to own, a food scale is useful to have, as it allows you to make recipes that list ingredients by weight. Have a set of measuring teaspoons, a set of measuring cups for dry ingredients and liquid measuring cups ranging from a one-cup to four-cup capacity. Measuring pointers Make sure you have the right tools There are 30 milliliters in one fluid ounce. Two sticks of butter are the equivalent of one cup or eight ounces. There are 16 cups in one gallon, or 128 fluid ounces. There are four cups in one quart, or 32 fluid ounces. There are two cups in one pint, or 16 fluid ounces. 1 cup = 16 tablespoons How many ounces in a cup? By the 19 th century, it is estimated that 90% of sailors in the US navy had at least one tattoo on their body.Īlthough the Polynesian designs were – and still are – part of the sailors’ tattoo ‘armory’ of designs, the tattoo culture amongst nautical brethren started to take on a design life force of its own. The practice of sailors tattooing their bodies took hold in the late 18 th Century, and over a short period of time, tattoos had spread throughout the British and American navies. The tattoo methods employed weren’t much different to those used by the Polynesians, although early records indicate the ink was made from gunpowder and urine. In those early days, sailors had their tattoos imprinted by the Polynesian tattooists in the islands, using their traditional tattooing tools and ink, but it wasn’t long before the matelots started to tattoo each other on board their ships. To this day, the only Polynesian art that is known to the world at large is from their tattoo designs, which still remain very popular. The members of Cook’s crew on the Endeavour were the first Europeans to ink Polynesian tattoos on their bodies. There were many subsequent references to tattoos in both Captain Cook’s and Sir Joseph Banks’ diaries, and in 1774, Banks returned to England with a living example of the art – a tattooed Polynesian warrior called Omai. It was here that Banks found the first examples of the famous intricate Maori face tattoos, and in January 1770, he acquired a perfectly preserved and tattooed Maori head. Later that year in October, Captain Cook discovered a group of hitherto unknown islands near New Zealand which were inhabited by Maoris. ![]() He also notes that the wounds remain painful for many days before they heal.īanks goes on to describe the tattooing of a 14-year-old girl on her buttocks, which was clearly so painful for the girl to endure that he had to leave before the tattoo was completed. kept in coconut shells and mixed with water…”īanks noted that the tattoo instruments were made of bone and shell which were fashioned into sharp ‘teeth’ numbering from 3 to 20 which are dipped into the black liquor and then driven into the skin by quick sharp blows that penetrate the skin “so deep that every stroke is followed by a small quantity of blood”. He writes that the color was “lamp black”, and was made from “…smoke of a kind of oily nuts used by them instead of candles…. “In short, they have an infinite diversity of figures in which they place this mark and some of them, we were told, had significations but this we never learned to our satisfaction.” which both sexes have on their arms and legs. “Some have ill-designed figures of men, birds or dogs but they more generally have this figure “Z” either simply, as the woman are generally marked with it, on every joint of their fingers and toes and often round the outside of their feet, or in different figures of it as square, circles, crescents, etc. “This they do by inlaying the color black under their skins in such a manner as to be indelible everyone is marked thus in different parts of his body accordingly maybe to his humor or different circumstances of his life. The first record on tattoos was written in August 1769, when Banks wrote in his journal: ![]() He was also the person who adopted the Polynesian word ‘tatau’ or ‘tattow’ into the English lexicon – the word we all know today as ‘tattoo’. To be strictly accurate, it was the famous naturalist, Sir Joseph Banks – on board HMS Endeavour as a botanist – who became the first westerner to record the details of ‘native tattoos’. ![]() It was during Captain Cook’s first voyage, which commenced in 1766, that he first encountered tattoos on the Polynesian Island of Tahiti. What is lesser known is his pivotal role in introducing the art of tattooing to the sailors of the world, who in turn made it widely known to the western world in general. He traveled thousands of miles across uncharted oceans, from New Zealand and Australia, to the Pacific Islands, to Hawaii, mapping in great detail the seas, the lands and the coastlines he encountered and gave many islands, places, rivers, and towns their present-day names. Most of you are at least vaguely aware that the great British explorer, Captain James Cook, led three epic voyages of discovery between 17, captaining three famous royal navy ships – HMS Endeavour, HMS Resolution, and finally, HMS Discovery. ![]() DTTL does not provide services to clients.
