![]() The 3-2-1 ratio for perfectly balanced whiskey sours is a simple formula that requires nothing more complicated than remembering the following mantra: 3 parts spirits, 2 parts sour, 1 part sweet. (And of course, if you prefer a sweeter flavor to your sour drinks, you can always add a teeny bit more.)īartenders seem torn on whether to use a cocktail cherry or lemon peel for garnish– but please… Don’t use a plain maraschino cherry!įor equipment, you’ll need a cocktail shaker, a Hawthorne strainer plus a fine strainer, and a bar jigger. Remembering a ratio is so much easier than trying to recall you need 1¾ ounces of this and 2 ounces of that. Then you can keep it in the fridge for about two weeks for all your cocktail needs. Recipe courtesy of Emerils Delmonico, by Emeril Lagasse, published by William Morrow. Bourbon is today's default choice of spirit in the Whiskey Sour, however, feel free to use Canadian or even Scotch Whisky to change the character of your. It’s so easy! It’s a simple recipe of 1:1 sugar and boiling hot water, mixed on the stove until the sugar dissolves. Combine lemon juice and sugar, then dilute with water and stir to dissolve sugar. If the ratio above is a little too sour, feel free to increase the amount of syrup up to about 1 shot (for a 0.75 shot of Lemon juice) - this will err on the sweet side os the sour cocktails. Trust us.Īlso, don’t forget to make your simple syrup ahead of time. 2 oz oz (59.15 mL) whiskey whiskey whiskey whiskey 1/2 oz oz (14.79 mL) lemon juice lemon juice lemon juice lemon juice 1/2 oz oz (14.79 mL) simple syrup. The Whiskey Sour calls for bourbon, simple syrup and lemon juice. For example, the margarita is made with tequila, agave and lime juice. ![]() ![]() Sours always contain a spirit, some sort of sweetener and some kind of citrus. Note : We always recommend using fresh juice rather than bottled lemon juice to really bring out those bright citrus flavors. The Whiskey Sour is from the Sour cocktail family, which means it is made with the Golden Ratio of Cocktails. ![]() But the traditional recipe is fairly straightforward with relatively simple ingredients: It combines 3/4 ounce lemon juice with one egg white (more on that below), 3/4 ounce simple syrup, and whiskey (typically bourbon whiskey ). ![]()

Read our Xiaomi Mi Smart Projector 2 review.Īnker Nebula Cosmos Laser 4K: Since it has a handle and a compact size, the Cosmos Laser 4K is technically portable, but it's hardly mini at more than 10 pounds. It's relatively dim, especially for the price, and it lacks both a built-in battery and compatibility with a USB power source, so it's not truly portable. We appreciated the compact size, 1080p resolution and built-in Android TV streaming, but the cons outweigh the pros. Xiaomi Mi Smart Projector 2: Another relatively expensive small projector we didn't love, the Xiaomi at least has a gorgeous, Apple-like design going for it. Worse, its price is a good 50% higher than it should be based on how it looks and performs. However, it lacks a battery and its performance is average, at best. Its built-in streaming is far better implemented than most portable projectors. About the size of a Bluetooth speaker, and in fact can double as one, the Freestyle can pivot on its stand to project an image at any height on walls and even the ceiling. Samsung Freestyle: The small, cylindrical Freestyle is an interesting idea, but it comes up short. The battery doesn't last as long as the AAXA either although it is a bit cheaper. It's not particularly bright, however, nor does it have built-in apps. LG CineBeam PH30N: The LG PH30N is tiny even compared to other portable projectors, even smaller than the AAXA. However, it's dimmer than the Xgimi Halo Plus for similar money. You can even use it as a Bluetooth speaker. Read our Anker Nebula Solar Portable review.īenQ GS50: The GS50 is roughly the same size as the Xgimi Halo Plus, and is also 1080p and has a built-in battery. If you want a sleek, budget-friendly portable with 1080p and plan on keeping the image on the small side, however, this is a solid choice. Its main disadvantage compared to others on this list is its relatively dim image, which means it can't project as large a picture and still look good. But if you want something portable, compact and maybe battery-powered, here are our top picks for the best mini projector.Īnker Nebula Solar Portable: We didn't like the Solar Portable as much as the BenQ GS50, Xgimi Halo Plus or even its sibling, the Mars II Pro. And since they mostly run on batteries, if you're going to be near an outlet, a standard projector will get you a much brighter, bigger and better image for your dollar. ![]() Secondly, most portable projectors, specifically the cheapest ones, often feature lower resolution than their larger peers, especially 4K projectors. The picture can end up looking dim since they can't project as large an image as the big guys. For one, many small projectors lack the brightness of a traditional home theater projector. Most portable projectors come ready to stream Netflix, Hulu, Disney Plus, Amazon Prime Video and other streaming services without needing a connection to a laptop or streaming device.Īll this said, portable projectors do come with a variety of drawbacks. Not to mention, they typically run on batteries. The best mini projectors on the market today also feature a bevy of connectivity options, like Bluetooth, HDMI and, of course, Wi-Fi. ![]() Whether you're projecting onto a movie screen or even a blank wall, you'll be able to watch hit movies and your favorite TV shows without a hitch.

Fellows are expected to attend the weekly Seminar and to present a paper from their ongoing projects at one of its sessions. The most important intellectual forum of the Center is the weekly Davis Seminar, which meets on Friday mornings during the fall and spring term for lively and wide-ranging discussion of work by invited outside scholars and by the Fellows themselves. Fellows are required to live in Princeton or the local vicinity (or demonstrate to the program's satisfaction the ability to be on campus on a daily basis and on short notice in order to fulfill responsibilities relating to in-person participation) in order to take an active part in the exchange of ideas with Fellows and others in the university community. Applicants are encouraged to apply for external funds or sabbatical support, and to apply for a year’s Fellowship if they have a reasonable expectation of bringing additional funds with them. Though the Center is normally able to offer fellowship support for only a single semester, it welcomes the residence of year-long Fellows who combine Center support with funds from elsewhere. The Davis Center offers fellowships for either one semester (expected to be September-December or February-June) or the academic year. Topics may include (but are not limited to) the use and misuse of facts in political propaganda, problems of evidence and objectivity, authenticity and source criticism, fakes, forgery and conspiracy theories, and diplomatic, inter- and intra-national reconciliation.

However, when choosing the best Milwaukee impact driver for your needs, experts generally recommend that performance is the focus. The latter offers higher performance, though the former tends to be a little lighter and more compact.Ī 12V impact driver is often considered a homeowner tool, while 18V models are aimed at pro users. Milwaukee produces impact drivers with 12V or 18V power. Some advanced Milwaukee impact drivers are unusual in that they offer multiple speed ranges, which provides the ability to match performance to the job being undertaken. However, it’s difficult to combine high speeds with high torque, so many impact drivers have a single speed. Revolutions per minute (rpm) is an important consideration for many lengthy tasks. Milwaukee impact drivers use a rapid 3,300 to 4,300 IMP. This action is measured in Impacts Per Minute (IPM). This action provides lots of small jolts, or impacts, thus increasing the driving force. On an impact driver, however, it’s rotary. On hammer drills used for masonry, concrete, etc., this action is in line with the direction of drilling. Milwaukee impact drivers maximize the torque effect by adding a hammer action. to 2,000 in.lbs., depending on the model. Milwaukee impact drivers vary from 450 in.lbs. Torque, or turning force, which is usually measured in inch-pounds (in.lbs.), is the amount of rotational power necessary to drive screws and bolts. The listed weight often doesn’t include the battery, which can add 1 to 2 1/2 pounds to the total weight. Milwaukee impact drivers, like most power tools, are often sold “bare” (without a battery or charger). The tendency of the 12V model to topple over can be frustrating. That said, the bulkier 18V unit stands up more easily. While both are well balanced, it makes some difference in maneuverability. The 12V battery often slides up into the handle, while the tool remains slender. The small size can be a big benefit when working in confined spaces.Īlso note that most 18V batteries are considerably larger than 12V models. However, the latest Milwaukee tools are all remarkably compact, and the difference is often slight. Historically, 12V Milwaukee impact drivers usually were smaller and lighter than their 18V counterparts. All new Milwaukee impact drivers use these more advanced brushless motors. Nothing is wrong with them, and they are a reliable, low-cost choice however, brushless motors are from 30 percent to 50 percent more efficient. Older style brush motors, originally designed for corded tools, create friction and heat that saps some of the power. The motor in any power tool affects its use of the available battery power. Improvements in cordless technology mean that all the company’s drivers can run on either 12V or 18V lithium-ion batteries. Until quite recently, Milwaukee offered a choice between corded and cordless versions of their impact drivers. The technical aspects of Milwaukee impact drivers can help potential buyers understand the key features that affect choice. On closer inspection, however, important differences exist. Photo: What to Consider When Choosing the Best Milwaukee Impact DriversĪt first glance, most Milwaukee impact drivers look similar to other tools in their range like drill drivers and hammer drills.

However, since numerous models are available, finding the best Milwaukee impact driver isn’t always a straightforward process. These are powerful, pro-grade tools with a reputation for durability. Milwaukee has one of the most comprehensive ranges of impact drivers on the market. An impact driver delivers extra rotational force to drive the fixing home for jobs in which a standard drill driver would struggle. Impact drivers are the go-to tool when dealing with long screws and other large fasteners. ![]() ![]() ![]() The diode representation is a good place to start, but it's far from accurate. The diode connecting base to emitter is the important one here it matches the direction of the arrow on the schematic symbol, and shows you which way current is intended to flow through the transistor. By narrowing our focus down - getting a solid understanding of the NPN - it'll be easier to understand the PNP (or MOSFETS, even) by comparing how it differs from the NPN. We'll turn our focus even sharper by limiting our early discussion to the NPN. Digging even deeper into transistor types, there are actually two versions of the BJT: NPN and PNP. In this tutorial we'll focus on the BJT, because it's slightly easier to understand.

Your current GI will not be covered (unless you are already on Kaiser insurance and seeing a Kaiser doctor). The cheapest Medicare coverage for Stelara that I have found is offered through Kaiser Medicare Advantage plans, but they have the disadvantage that you must switch to Kaiser doctors. It considers these co-pay plans paid for by the drug companies to be a form of kickback. One minor clarification is that Janssen CarePath co-pay program would be perfectly happy to cover Medicare plans, but the Federal government won't allow it. You have hit on the sad reality facing anyone on Medicare who needs a very expensive specialty drug. Poor s almost 26k per dose.Ĭlick to expand.No, you are not missing anything. My insurance covered it no questions asked. I hope after this one no more surgeries!! I have another surgery later this month to remove a stricture in my terminal ileum at the anastomosis at the spot were I had the ileostomy. I had prostate cancer surgery 3 months ago and I had a bad relapse, very bad proctitis, with prednisone, mesalamine etc etc before the Stelara. My Dr always told me that he was always surprised on how good my labwork results were compared to how bad the mucosa was. I stopped Remi and they went up to a little more than 200. When I was on Remicade my levels went down from almost 600 to the forties. The Dr told me that he will check the Calprotectin levels in 4 months. I feel fine so I assume I am in remission. But it was easy and everything went smoothly. Since this thing is SOOOOO expensive I was a little bit freaked out when I injected it. Nope, I had the loading dose and then 2 months later I injected myself. ![]() Apparently something to do with medicare. The damnedest thing is that since being on a medicare advantage plan, the insurance company is paying the provider more than they billed. I had considered the use of a specialty pharmacy at one time but they also were throwing around the $20k+ number. Turns out the infusion center pharmacy purchases the Stelara from a drug wholesaler, hence the "low cost". The contract price between the provider and the insurance co has ranged from $3,900 to $7,000 while I was covered by a commercial plan prior to turning age 65. between $6,000 and $11,000 for the Stelara over the course of the 20 injections that I've had since 2018. The infusion center pharmacy has billed the insurance Co. I built a spreadsheet of all the various cost data presented in the "Explanation of Benefits" documents. I've had 20 injections thus far all administered by a hospital infusion center and billed to my medical plan. It’s close to $23000 per shot right now per the drug insurance claims for my kiddo on Stelara every 4 weeks" "Retail cost varies by specialty pharmacy. Still lots of questions.but if the retail cost per injection is $15,000 and I get six injection per year, my total out-of-pocket would be $10,800.I think, haha. The asterisk * - CMS Mandated Changes for 2022 My plan description includes the footnote "After beneficiary's yearly out-of-pocket drug costs reach $7,050*, beneficiary pays the greater of 5% coinsurance or $3.95* copay for generics and $9.85* copay for all other drugs. The coverage gap thresholds are $4,430 and $7,050 which is apparently the medicare standard threshold values. For my particular plan the copay is 33% during the Initial Coverage Stage, 25% during the Coverage Gap Stage, and 5% during the Catastrophic Stage. So some plans are better than the medicare standard. ![]() I understand that MAPD plans must meet a minimum co-pay standard establish by Medicare. If a drug plan benefit, there is a confusing set of rules to determine the copay. Stelara is in its formulary but not sure if it is listed as a drug plan benefit or a now defunct medical plan benefit. So, I'm looking at a particular MAPD plan offered through the company from which I retired. My provider was kind enough to turn-over a sample provided to them by a pharmaceutical company to get me through the end of the year. So currently, I no longer have coverage for Stelara. My existing drug plan, which is not part D, does not cover injectable medications. That all changed October 15 when Medicare added Stelara to the "self administered drug" exclusion list. This was the case with the commercial plan I had prior to turning 65 and the Medicare Advantage Plan I enrolled in after turning 65. My insurance was such that both the initial dose administered by infusion and the maintenance doses administered by subcutaneous injection were covered by my medical plan vs my drug plan. ![]() So, I finally made 65 years old May 2021. ![]() ![]()
![]() ![]() The stacking bracket allows for the weight of the tumble dryer to be distributed evenly across the top of the washer – keeping things held in place nicely as you use your appliances. Yes! A washer dryer stacking kit is pretty essential if you want to use this space-saving method as you also want everything to be secure and safe to use. The washing machine contains a concrete block so it therefore much, much heavier than a tumble dryer, making it the safest choice to be placed at the bottom of the stack.ĭo You Need a Stacking Kit for Stacking a Washer and Dryer? Putting the tumble dryer on top is the recommended and best way. However, it could seem a little looming if you have a tall fridge freezer as well as double-height laundry appliances in the same room.įor the smallest spaces, it may be best to get hold of a washer-dryer combo, so everything can be done in one appliance. The concept would also work in a kitchen. If you are lucky enough to have a laundry room, this idea can be super effective, not to mention efficient when it comes to transferring your laundry from one to the other. This would, unfortunately, mean that stacking using a bracket would not be an option for you. Since the washing machine is the heaviest in weight, the tumble dryer has to sit on top, but if your washing machine has rounded edges, the universal stacking bracket will not lock in place and distribute the weight of the tumble dryer evenly. This will depend on the shape of your appliances and the placement of drawers or removable units. It is recommended that you only stack appliances from the same manufacturer or the same manufacturing group appliances together, but if your tumble dryer and washing machine are both different makes, then you might be able to use one a universal stacking kit. When your washing machine and tumble dryer are made by the same manufacturer, you can often purchase the correct/branded stacking kit to support and steady your appliances on top of one another – making this task super easy! Yes! Well… there are a few things you need to consider if you plan on stacking appliances, but it is possible under certain circumstances. This is probably one of the best ideas to save space in your home, as appliances can be really bulky and eat up every square inch in a room… not great for small space living! Here’s one for your laundry room or kitchen – stacking a tumble dryer on top of a washing machine! There are loads of great space-saving hacks on Pinterest and dotted all over social media, in fact, there’s something for every room!
