![]() ![]() It does this job well, and doesn't make you worry about accidentally wiping out some other drive. What UNetbootin was made to do was automate the process of downloading an Ubuntu CD image, convert it for your USB thumb drive, find that drive, and install that image on there, without you having to do much of anything. Windows will likely confirm that you want to do that, and you should say it's "OK." You'll see this when UNetbootin opens: Once you've downloaded the file ( unetbootin-windows-latest.exe), find it and double-click it. Click on the Windows icon at the top to download the latest version of UNetbootin-here's a direct link for those following this guide on their monitor. Turn on your working Windows computer, make sure it's connected to the internet, and open up a browser. If that's not your thing, you can simply burn a live CD from a Mac. Alternate: Mac options: You can create an Ubuntu USB stick from a Mac, but it requires both tricky, theoretically harmful Terminal commands and administrator access. That application, though, doesn't have to be installed, so you can easily clean up after yourself if you're using a friend's computer. A working Windows computer with a decent net connection Because you'll need to download a 700 MB file to install onto your USB stick, and a 4.3 MB application to make it work.If that's the case, skip the section about making a USB stick and head right to the "Boot Up and Get Started" section. If you don't have a large enough drive to spare, or you'd like to save your USB drive space for backing up your much-needed files, you can still grab a recordable CD and create a "Live CD" to boot from. Alternate: CD-R Using a USB drive gives you faster performance when booting a system like Ubuntu without installing it. The drive you intend to install Ubuntu on should be empty, because it will get cleared out when we make it boot-able. ![]() If you're looking to recover files, you'll need to use a separate USB drive, blank CDs or DVDs, or an online backup service. Empty USB drive: Sometimes called a "thumb" drive, a "flash" drive, or a USB "stick." It's a tiny little piece of plastic that usually holds at least 1 GB, and that's the minimum size you'll need.Analyze your hard drive to figure out what's filled it, and resize partitions if you're dual booting and need to free up more space.Change your login password if you've forgotten it, or someone's changed it on you.Recover files and save them onto that same thumb drive, to a web storage spot like Dropbox, or to another USB drive.Clean a virus with a Linux-based anti-virus app.Here's the short list of things we'll cover here: If you or your in-need friends or relatives can't boot into your Windows desktop, or you can't actually do anything once you're into it, booting up a live Ubuntu system from a USB thumb drive, or off a burned CD, can save your system, recover files, and pull off other miracles. Here's how to use a simple USB drive to free space, remove viruses, rescue passwords, and more from crunked Windows setups.

However, there are original recipes for chocolate cakes from Germany there is a traditional recipe that won a local competition for a chocolate cake with cherries that dates back to 1909 in the Lake Constance area. The possessive form German's was dropped in subsequent publications, forming the "German Chocolate Cake" identity and giving the false impression of a German origin. Sales of Baker's Chocolate are said to have increased by as much as 73% and the cake would become a national staple. General Foods, which owned the Baker's brand at the time, took notice and distributed the cake recipe to other newspapers in the country.

In 1957, a recipe for "German's Chocolate Cake" appeared as the "Recipe of the Day" in The Dallas Morning News. Maraschino cherries are occasionally added as a garnish. Occasionally, a chocolate frosting is spread on the sides of the cake and piped around the circumference of the layers to hold in the filling. The filling and/or topping is a custard made with egg yolks and evaporated milk once the custard is cooked, coconut and pecans are stirred in. Sweet baking chocolate is traditionally used for the cake's flavor, but few recipes call for it today. Originating in the United States, it was named after English-American chocolate maker Samuel German, who developed a formulation of dark baking chocolate that came to be used in the cake recipe.

Even a rudimentary seal is difficult to craft. It is very sticky and hard to manipulate. Putty comes with no instructions on how much to use or how to properly seal a conduit. Related Content: Is Meeting a Standard Enough?-An Examination of Duct Sealing Code Compliance.Īpplication is one cause of failure. Specifiers and engineers should understand that this is problematic for reliable cable installations because duct putty fails as a long-term sealant solution. Certainly, it is frequently used as such. Despite this, duct putty is often recommended for and marketed as a conduit sealant. In the case of duct putty, the UL mark is generally for sealing junction boxes, not conduit entrances containing electrical or communications cables. It is important to note that a UL mark does not make a product suitable for a purpose other than the one it’s designed or marketed for. Many commercially available duct putties are UL approved.ĭuct putty is not, however, an excellent conduit sealant. It seals gaps and cracks and works well to reduce drafts, moisture, dust, insects, and noise. Uses in the electrical and communications markets include sealing around electrical boxes, flashings, junction boxes, pedestals, service mast entries, etc. It is also commonly used in the refrigeration and plumbing trades. ![]() It can be easily worked by hand to form an infinite variety of shapes that are pressed into place to seal HVAC ductwork-thus its name as a duct putty. Variations include mastic or oil and wax blends. Though formulations obviously vary by manufacturer, duct putty is typically a thick and pliable inert commodity made of clay and water. This article reviews duct putty and analyzes specifically why its use as a duct sealant can be problematic. Unfortunately, this seemingly ideal sealant too often falls short of expectations, resulting in expensive damage that far outweighs any perceived convenience or cost savings over high-performance, engineered sealing solutions. It ostensibly allows cable installers to comply with industry codes mandating that conduits are sealed. The product is cheap, safe, easy, and ubiquitous. Duct putty is arguably the most common product used to seal electrical and telecommunications conduits worldwide. You would need to live a decade or even more without any plumbing problems in your home. To have the right tool of work used appropriately and for long-lasting results, you may need to consider calling the experts for the best results. Plumber’s putty does not need any time to cure. To appropriately apply plumber’s putty, the plumber in question may need to clean the surface where he or she needs to apply the product and may need to warm the putty with the intention f improving its malleability. Plumber’s putty is best used in plumbing especially in a case where there is a connection such as a tub drain and a sink or a drain pipe and the source. Plumber’s putty is known to repel water and hence tend to be very good when creating watertight seals. Plumber’s putty tends to be moldable and tends to allow versatile use especially at home. Plumber’s putty, on the other hand, is more like a clay substance that is mostly used to ensure watertight seals. ![]() However, the plumber may need the duct sealant in a case where he or she is maintaining or repairing dishwashers, refrigerators, washing machine and may also use it in electrical connections. Sealant duct tends to have limited plumbing applications and tends to be used more in the repair of electrical and HVAC systems. While duct sealant is mainly used to repel moisture, it is also used to seal air leaks and not plumbing leaks. Duct sealant does not dry out and hence easy to reshape, remove or even reapplied. Duct sealant tends to be nonconductive and it is also non-corrosive.

This made the circumstances of the Great Agrarian Depression of the 1930s that wrecked wheat ranchers all over. Wheat costs fell and the fare market imploded. Enormous measure of corn and wheat became creature feed. Unsold stocks accumulated storage facilities Overflowed with grains. The vast majority of the ranchers later confronted inconvenience. A large number of them abandoned their ranches and searched for work somewhere else. Yet, later they think that it’s hard to reimburse the credits to banks. ![]() ![]() A large number of them purchased these machines from banks to procure higher benefits. This new creation permitted wheat to be collected faster and with less workforce.With one of these machines, 500 sections of land of wheat could be collected in about fourteen days.For the helpless farmers, machines brought hopelessness. For a very long time, ranchers and field laborers needed to gather crops by hand utilizing a sickle or different strategies, which was a challenging assignment, best case scenario. In 1831, Cyrus McCormick developed the first mechanical reaper which could cut in one day however much that five men could cut with cradles and 16 men with sickles. One such innovation was the mechanical reaper. There were a few new developments that took into account the large-scale manufacturing of items, particularly in the field of agribusiness. The Industrial Revolution achieved change in the manner merchandise were created. This frequently required a lot of time and energy. The McCormick mechanical reaper supplanted the manual cutting of the harvest with scythes and sickles.īefore the eighteenth and nineteenth century, individuals created their food, apparel, and yields generally by hand and utilizing little tools. ![]() This machine was utilized by ranchers to collect yields mechanically. McCormick amassed a large fortune and invested widely in later years in railroad and mining enterprises.Hint:A mechanical reaper or reaping machine is a mechanical, semi-automated gadget that harvests crops. In 1874 he set up a factory in Chicago, founding what eventually became one of the greatest industrial establishments in the United States.Īn astute businessman, McCormick increased his sales with door-to-door canvassing and written guarantees for his ready-to-assemble machinery. Six years later he began to license its manufacture in other parts of the country. ![]() Patenting his invention in 1834, after Obed Hussey had announced in 1833 the construction of a reaper of his own, McCormick started to manufacture the machine on the family estate in 1837. In July 1831, McCormick succeeded where his father had failed, producing a model reaper with all the essential components of later commercial machines. His time-saving invention allowed farmers to more than double their crop size and spurred innovations in farm machinery.īorn in Rockbridge County, Virginia, McCormick derived his interest in invention from his father, a Virginia landowner who patented several improved farming implements and worked without success for many years to perfect a mechanical reaper. Cyrus Hall McCormick invented the mechanical reaper, which combined all the steps that earlier harvesting machines had performed separately. ![]() ![]() The primary purpose of breeding finches is to increase the number of species and produce hybrids. The average lifespan of a finch is about four years, which makes them an ideal pet for beginners. They are very easy to keep and have a very short lifespan. ![]() However, you can also sometimes find finches with their eggs still inside their nests, which is rarer but still an opportunity to see them.įinches are one of the most common birds you can find in your backyard. ![]() ![]() In many cases, the finches will lay their eggs on the outside of their nests, making them easy to spot. Because the female finches are laying their eggs at this time, you will have the best chance of seeing them. The best season to visit the Galapagos Islands is to see finches laying eggs in spring. Galapagos Islands is very famous for the different types of finches found there. Again, this is because the females are the ones who do most of the singing and the breeding. However, in many species, such as the zebra finch, females are the larger sex. Therefore, males also tend to be the enormous sex. Male finches are the only birds in which the males do most of the singing and most of the breeding. Both males and females will mate at this time of year, but the males are the ones who will breed. The best time of year for finches to mate is spring when the weather is warm enough for the birds to breed but not so hot that the birds won’t want to be outside. However, in some species, the eggs are fertilized outside the body, such as in fish. In most birds and mammals, the eggs are held in the female’s reproductive tract until they are ready to hatch, at which point the female will lay them. They’re the cellular structures that develop into offspring once female animals are ready to give birth. When she lays her eggs, she places them into a slight depression in the nest, where they will remain incubated by themselves for several days before hatching out.Įggs are the primary reproductive cells of birds, mammals, and reptiles. The female will build a nest in a tree or ground while the male guards her during this time. The males will mate with the female and then fly off to find a suitable nesting site. The number of eggs produced may vary from one bird to another but is usually between two and five.įinches typically start laying their eggs in early spring. The timing of when they lay eggs depends on the species, but most finches lay between March and August. It should also have some protection from animals or other predators such as birds of prey or foxes.įinches lay eggs at various times of the year. The nest should have grasses, leaves, and any other materials they may need to build their home. ![]() The female finches will lay her eggs in a nest she builds herself or one she has created with her mate’s help. Most finches will lay 2-6 eggs per clutch, which can be more sometimes. However, there have been recorded cases where a finch has laid up to 6 clutches per year. The weather is warm enough for the eggs to hatch but not so hot that the eggs won’t survive.įinches generally do not lay more than three clutches per year. When do finches lay eggs? The best time of year for finches to lay their eggs is in spring, between March and August. ![]() ![]() ![]() If you want to provide feedback on Brewer's Corner lists, you can use the feedback form found in the changelog channel on our Discord server and linked below.
