![]() ![]() The truth is that this giant wrist-watch is comfortable on any size wrist, but a passion for oversized watches is certainly prerequisite. When it comes to 55 millimeters, however, I received some incredulous stares. When working at the Matt Baily watch boutique in Montreal Canada, I would always tell my clients that there is no such thing as a watch that is too big. Its impressive 55mm diameter is complemented by an thickness of 18.2mm. As in many U-Boat watches the size of the case is quite remarkable. Now that we have shown the structural integrity of the U-1001, we can concentrate on what is more visible about the watch. The helium valve therefore is appointed to evacuate the gas and relieve the internal pressure. The crystal may become dislodged or shatter, and a weak case would be at risk of deformation. At the point when the watch returns to the surface said gases expand and may cause great damage to the watch. Helium and Nitrogen, being very small molecules are able to seep into the watch through the seals while the diver is acclimatizing in a chamber filled with the gas mixture. While its name implies that there is helium gas within the watch, what it is referring to is the helium that is present in “breathing gas” mixtures used by professional divers for very deep dives. Apart from the coolness factor that it adds to the overall look of the watch, this small valve has a very specific function. On the U-Boat U-1001/1 it is placed below the crown on the left side of the case. ![]() This strength indicates durability and quality on dry land.Īnother technical feature that is fitted to almost every diving watch is an automatic pressure release valve. Looking at it that way may give a whole new appreciation of how strong diving watches have to be. Consider that at 1000 meters bellow sea-level the crystal alone is supporting the equivalent of about 400 lbs. Because it is flat it does not distort the dial’s features, so its thickness is not evident by looking at the watch straight on. It is constructed out of synthetic sapphire, which is is highly scratch resistant due to its hardness, and it is 5.5mm thick. In order to withstand the incredible pressure pushing down on it, it must be made extraordinarily thick. One very important aspect of the U-1001/1 is its crystal. The U-1001 cannot actually be classified as a professional diving watch due to its lack of certain diving-related markings, but all structural qualifications are met. The next few paragraphs will look at each of these parts in detail. The designers and engineers then have to take into consideration all the weak spots of the watch like the crystal, crowns, and all the other tiny fissures between parts. In order to survive this tremendous pressure a timepiece needs a strong case, which in this instance is a 55mm tank carved out of titanium. This translates to about 150 pounds of force per square inch. It is easy to see why when considering that at a depth of 1000 meters, a watch is subject to an atmospheric pressure that is 100 times superior to that at sea level. A water resistance rating of 1000 meters – 1001 meters to be true to the U-Boat spec sheet – is not easily acquired.

![]() Food at the Great Wolf Lodge in Pennsylvania The hotel also offers Wolf Walks, where kids are given a tour of the hotel and educated about wolfs. First, the clock tower animatric characters tell a story, then a Great Wolf Lodge staff member reads a story to the children. In the evenings, the Great Wolf Lodge offers a pajama story time in the lobby by the clock tower. The Great Wolf Lodge in Pennsylvania also has an arcade, indoor mini golf, mini bowling alley, and a kids’ spa. My kids enjoyed following the story, and loved the little personalized books they got at the end, but it’s definitely more appropriate for younger guests. We also played Story Explorers, which is similar to MagiQuest but geared to younger kids. My kids were obsessed with the game and wanted to stay longer at the hotel just so they could continue playing. Most of the game takes place over four wings located across two floors of the hotel, and while we played we saw kids of all ages – from about 4 to 18. To play, you purchase a wand and pay for activation, then head to the electronic trees to sign up for a quest. My kids also really enjoyed MagiQuest, which is an interactive game at resort. However, to visit the water park, you must be a guest of the hotel. A snack counter, bar, and store are all open to guests of the water park, and you could easily spend the entire day just at the water park. ![]() The whole water park is heated to 84 degrees at all times, and the water is nice and warm. There’s also a lazy river, a wave pool, a splash structure, and an activity pool (with basketball hoops). Mine weren’t able to go on all of the water slides (they are both under 48 inches), but were able to go on several of the larger slides with us and on all of the smaller slides alone. ![]() It’s clean, well staffed, and lots of fun for kids of all ages. Obviously, the indoor water park is the big draw here, and it doesn’t disappoint at all. Attractions at the Great Wolf Lodge Pennsylvania There were lots of great options – including some food that the kids really enjoyed. I didn’t read great things about the buffet online, but we were pleasantly surprised. Usually, there is both an a la carte and buffet option for dinner, however, because it was so crowded, they were only offering the buffet. Although we may not have done all of these things without the pass, it was definitely a great deal.īecause it was snowing when we arrived, we didn’t even consider leaving the lodge for dinner. I added the Paw Pass for each of my kids, which cost about $65 each and included a MagiQuest wand, activation of the wand, tokens for the arcade, a candy cup from the gift shop, a game of bowling, a plush toy with outfit, and Story Explorers. Upon check-in, you can choose to purchase the bundled packages if you want to do anything beyond the water park (which is included in the room rate). Although we were there before check-in time, our suite was ready, so we were able to get to our room right away. We didn’t require luggage assistance, but it was available. ![]() We arrived during the start of a snow storm, so it was definitely busy at the front of the hotel. When you first arrive at the Great Wolf Lodge, you have the option to either self park or valet for an additional fee. I thought the hotel did a great job of managing the crowds well though – we never felt overcrowded or cramped. The week between Christmas and New Year’s is typically very busy, and the lodge was completely occupied while we were there. I visited the Williamsburg, Virginia location last year when on the Virginia Family Fun and Food media trip, and knew my kids would love it. The Great Wolf Lodge is a chain with locations throughout North America in the United States and Canada. Review: Great Wolf Lodge in Pennsylvania, A Poconos Indoor Water Park Preheat the grill (or oven) to between 300° and 350☏. (You can also do this indoors the principals are the same.) How to reverse sear chicken The best way to prevent dry chicken is to use the reverse sear method of grilling. In other words, you likely eat dry and burnt chicken on a regular basis. If you do this, you are likely also the person who puts the chicken in the oven for an hour at 375☏. Get the grill piping hot, and you just grill the chicken over direct heat, flip a couple of times until the juice is clear and meat is white. Just remember to carefully insert the probe and not touch bone, skewer, or rotisserie spit. If it says that the meat is done, then you are safe. Check internal temperature with an instant-read thermometer like this one. The marrow is leaching pigment into the still porous bones and meat. It’s caused by a lack of calcium on the bones. This staining (unless the chicken is seriously undercooked) comes from chickens that are very young. And what do you do then? I’m sure that you have cooked bone-in chicken, wings, thighs, or even a whole roasting bird, and when you cut in, there was a little bit of pinky juice, and a purple-ish staining on and around the bones. The universal – no fail, – safe temperature for chicken is 165☏, but you have to remember to remove the bird from the grill (or oven, or skillet) shortly after that temperature is reached, or you will wind up with dry and stringy meat.įurther to the clear juices, white meat thing, well, sometimes that just doesn’t happen. No, you should not make yourself chicken-medium rare, however, it is actually safe to eat chicken that has reached an internal temperature of 150☏ and kept there without fluctuation for 5 minutes. It was an embarrassing event with family members milling about the kitchen as I tried not to panic.Īfter that, I vowed to get to the bottom of safe chicken. I used two different thermometers and they said that the meat was at a safe temperature to serve, but – keeping with the old school teaching that pink anything + chicken = BAD – I continued to cook the birds. The thermometer read that the bird was done, a safe temperature for eating, however when I started to slice, the meat was pinkish and so were the juices. I once cooked a roast chicken dinner for my family. This isn’t the case, and there are several reasons why. Keep all raw and cooked meats covered thoroughly in the fridge, and use plates or trays to avoid meat juices contaminating other produce.It’s long been stated that when the juices run clear or the meat is white, your chicken is done.Store meats in the deepest part of the freezer.Keep meat and fresh foods separated in the fridge.Keep chicken cold at all times ( below 5☌ for fresh chicken and below -20☌ for frozen chicken).If you want to keep cooked chicken hot, keep above 60✬.Do not overstuff the cavity (not more than 2/3 full) and remove stuffing immediately after cooking. Reheat leftovers to at least 70☌ for a minimum of 2 minutes.(This method is less reliable as some meat, even when cooked, remains slightly pink). If the juice is clear, it is cooked.ģ – Cutting the meat – cut into the meat and check that it is white, not pink. If the juice that comes out is pink it is not cooked (contains blood). ![]() ![]() When the temperature has reached 75☌ the meat is fully cooked.Ģ – Use a skewer – pierce into the thickest part of the chicken and remove the skewer. Insert the thermometer at the centre of the thickest part of the piece being cooked. ![]() Use these methods for roast chicken, poached chicken, BBQ chicken or any other cooking method.ġ – Use a meat thermometer – this is the most reliable method. ![]() There are several ways to test the internal and external temperature of cooked chicken. How to know the temperature of cooked chicken This also includes any stuffing, wings, and legs. What is the correct internal temperature of cooked chicken?Īll parts of the chicken (internal and external) need to reach a steady temperature of 75☌ to be eaten safely. “The high temperatures reached in roasting, baking, frying and boiling kill food poisoning bacteria as long as all internal and external parts of the chicken reach the right temperature (75☌).” What is the correct temperature of cooked chicken?Īccording to Australian Chicken Meat Federation (ACMF), all parts of the chicken meat must be cooked to a temperature of no less than 75☌. It is essential that you cook chicken according to instructions, as this is the only way you will know that the poultry has been cooked safely. While you may be tempted to slightly undercook poultry to avoid the meat becoming tough or dry, this is not recommended. ![]() We look forward to working with you soon.

![]() What makes the Magical Butter Machine so… magical? Now that we have talked about the Ongrok Herbal Infuser, it is time to address its competition, the running king of the herbal infuser market: the Magical Butter Machine. Plus, the company offers a risk-free guarantee directly for their product, so if any issues do arise, you can easily get them remedied through a trustworthy source. Other than the slight qualm about connections, the Ongrok Infuser gets a glowing review, thanks to its sheer simplicity and quality construction. Watch out for the prongs positioned on the handle of the Ongrok Herbal Infuser, as those will surely be the only major concern for its longevity. ![]() The only real gripe that I have with the overall design of this machine is the way the top portion slots into the infusion chamber itself. The buttons on top of the device are responsive and slightly raised for ease-of-use. The Ongrok uses lab-tested material for both its infusion chamber and the housing. One huge boon for the Ongrok Herbal Infuser is that, like the Magical Butter Machine, the material used is top-quality. Both this device and its Magical Butter Machine counterpart stand at just a little taller than your average Keurig (with the latter coming in a little taller than the former), and both use a solid power cord that will not kink or come apart with regular use. The Ongrok Herbal Infuser provides an easy user experience through its simple, sleek design. And all of this through the simple click of a couple buttons. Herbal infusers make the whole process incredibly simple, taking out all the fuss to leave you with the best infused butter, oils, tinctures, and lotions possible. Some of you may have even felt deterred from making infusions after struggling to get consistency down. If you have ever tried making infused edibles, you probably went through a few batches before you figured out your way around the process. So, no matter which one you ultimately decide to go with, it will be a vast improvement over the traditional method for infusion. *WARNING* Before you go any further, I would just like to point out that my Crock Pot is not even comparable to these two goliath infusers. But which of these two brilliant butter makers is the best bang for your buck? Let the butter battle commence! Making infused edibles can be a pain, especially if your only option is the infamous slow-cooker method, but both the Ongrok Herbal Infuser and the Magical Butter Machine make infusing butter, lotion, tinctures, and oil a breeze. ![]()

![]() In the multiplayer part of the game, the Colt Python is additionally equipped with a laser pointer under the barrel. The Python's cylinder appears to not be attached to its crane nor ejector rod (which remain stationary while reloading), and it can be seen floating outside the gun when it is swung out. The reload animation is actually longer than the reload process itself, as the player can fire the revolver right after inserting new rounds into its cylinder (though this is not the case in Half-Life: Source). Reloading is done with the help of a speedloader, but it is still slower than the Glock's. 357 Magnum Colt Python is found mid-way through the game at the bottom of a blast pit and is far more powerful than the 9mm pistol, but is offset by a small capacity and a lower rate of fire. The third-person model is noticeably shorter, somewhat comparable in length to the Beretta 85FS. The Glock (and the 92FS in the HD pack) is one of the few firearms in the game that can fire underwater. A suppressed version is used by the female Black Ops, and HECU (Hazardous Environment Combat Unit) medics are also seen using the pistol in the Opposing Force expansion pack. The secondary fire button makes it fire faster, but with reduced accuracy. It has a 17 round magazine capacity and is accurate, but not particularly powerful. The Glock 17 is the standard issue sidearm of the Black Mesa security guards. The following weapons appear in the video game Half-Life and its expansions: The HD Pack from Blue Shift was later ported back to Half-Life and Opposing Force. A fan remake of the first two expansions was developed under the name Operation: Black Mesa. Three Half-Life expansions which were developed by Gearbox Software were spawned after the success of the first game: Opposing Force, released in 1999, Blue Shift, released in 2001 and originally intended for a cancelled Sega Dreamcast port of the game (also including a "High Definition Pack", which replaces all of the game's NPC and weapon models with higher-resolution counterparts), and Decay, which was only officially included alongside the base game in its PlayStation 2 port released in 2001. It was also ported to the newer Source engine used in Half-Life 2 instead of the older GoldSrc engine, and subsequently re-branded as Half-Life: Source. It was followed by a sequel, Half-Life 2, and a fan-made remake, Black Mesa. It also helped jump-start the FPS storytelling genre. It is well known and acclaimed for its lack of cut-scenes (using scripted sequences instead), realistic worlds, (at the time) advanced AI, and seamless storytelling. It is notable for being Valve's debut in the gaming industry and the first game in the Half-Life series. ![]() Half-Life is a sci-fi FPS developed by Valve and published by Sierra studios, released in 1998. |
