10/13/2023 0 Comments Best biometric gun safe 2021Better models offer various types of alerts, including via smartphone app. Low-cost gun safes may not give you any warning that the battery is on low charge, and you’ll need to open the unit manually (with a key provided) in order to change it. More advanced gun safes use lithium-ion (Li-ion) rechargeables, which have a much longer life, are more reliable, and we think more convenient. Power usually comes from a single battery, often a non-rechargeable alkaline version. Portable models can be temporarily secured using a steel cable (though they don’t all provide this option, and some may need to be modified). Long gun cases might also be bolted down or built into wardrobes. Some quite small models can be bolted to the floor, and quite a few are designed to be fixed to a desk or nightstand. Those who want to fix their gun safe in a permanent position will find various mounting options are offered. Weight will be a factor if you’re looking for a portable biometric gun safe, but bear in mind nothing that offers a reasonable level of protection is likely to be particularly light. Be sure to check interior as well as exterior dimensions. They vary from the compact and easily portable to large heavy-duty cabinets. Size will depend on the number of guns you own and whether the gun safe is intended as a fixed item at home or to be used to keep your guns secure when you travel with them. Though it’s nice, it’s not really necessary. Some have a smooth and near-silent opening thanks to a gas-filled strut inside. Strengthįor maximum strength, we like to see two- or four-bolt doors or lids. “Carbon steel” is sometimes quoted, which sounds impressive, but actually all steel is an alloy of iron and carbon, so it’s only of additional value if a specific type of high-carbon steel is quoted. Thickness of steel has an impact on overall strength and is usually given as a gauge number (lower numbers are thicker). ![]() Hinges should be concealed, and any seams should be tight in order to prevent any attempt to pry the case open. SecurityĪnother major consideration is the gun safe’s physical security. Along with the information provided by manufacturers, we also think it’s a good idea to check owner feedback. A common complaint with cheap biometric scanners is inconsistency. Larger sensors tend to be better (there’s even one certified by the F.B.I.). Speed of scanning and accuracy are the things to look for. Most units only require a single digit to be recognized but some use four. Some will store up to 120 fingerprints, though, frankly, any more than a half dozen seems excessive in most homeowner situations. The scanning unit is clearly a vital component in a biometric gun safe, and they vary considerably. However, there are several brands to choose from if you prefer that particular security method. We think this is mostly because rapid access is less of a requirement for this kind of weapon. They open very quickly, presenting the gun in the ready position.īiometric cases for long guns also exist, but there are far fewer of them. ![]() There are single-gun upright designs that hold your firearm in what is effectively a steel holster. The most basic is what might be described as a lockbox, a strong, secure steel container, which, depending on size, can hold your gun or guns, perhaps extra ammunition or clips, and other items, like a cleaning kit, maybe a holster, or even important papers. These weapons present opportunities for horrifying accidents at home or for deadly consequences if that firearm gets on the streets. ![]() Anybody can get to them - a child, a person with mental health problems, a burglar. It has been estimated that more than 1.5 million handguns in U.S. This is particularly valuable in preventing home firearms accidents. Alternatively, if the person is not recognized, they will be denied. The next time you put your finger on the scanner, the device recognizes you and grants access. Your information is then stored on a computer chip. In a biometric gun safe, you first input your unique biometric data via a fingerprint scanner, which records the detail at high resolution - hundreds of dots per inch. This has applications in security devices because many of your biometrics - typically eyes, palms and fingerprints - are unique to you. The dictionary describes biometry as “the statistical analysis of biological data.” Or, in other words, biometrics are measurements of your body. Keep it where it won’t be easily discovered. If your biometric gun safe is portable, it will stop your kids, but it won’t prevent a burglar from walking off with it. 10/13/2023 0 Comments Best lg projector![]() This is a 1080p-native display device that’s capable of quadrupling its resolution thanks to its extended mirror tilt functionality and a specialized actuating optical piece within the light engine. LG has taken a number of steps to ensure that not only is their proprietary dual-laser light source put to good use, but that the light-engine design and feature-set for the projector make its image far more competitive, particularly against other single-chip DLP projectors near this price point.įor starters, the AU810PB is using Texas Instruments latest 0.47-inch XPR-enabled DMD. At least, that's how I felt until I got my hands on LG’s new AU810PB, which sells for $3,999. ![]() I think this aspect is one of the main reasons why LG’s projectors have been such a popular choice for consumers over the years.īut while the light-source technology behind their projectors has always been impressive, I’ve always felt picture quality and feature-set were a step behind most of the DLP competition, at least as far as dedicated home theater use goes. In fact, if you check out their website, every single one of their home theater projectors features a solid-state light source, something no other projector manufacturer I’m aware of can claim. Over the past decade, LG has been on a roll, developing innovative and durable LED- and laser-based light sources for their single-chip DLP projectors. Their yearly shoot-out, extensive selection and helpful attitude makes our life easier when we need to dig in a little more. We'd like to thank for their assistance with our projector evaluations and testing. 10/13/2023 0 Comments 707 mystic messenger wighair density:180% heavy density hair length:20 inch hair weight: 280-290g features: 1. the irresistible factors including computer monitors, shooting light, camera pixels and personal understanding of color difference will be caused color difference sometimes.Ĭolor: **blue green** hair style: fashion blue green color natural straight hair wig. wig clean and care: first wig straightened out, put a little shampoo in cold water, and then the wig into the water and soak for 5-10 minutes, gently press wash, then rinse well with water, dry with a towel after water dry naturally, can spray a little point of care solution. wig wearing steps: a.comb gently with specialized comb (excluded curly wig) b.fix the wig cap by the buckle c.spray wig care solution and style wigs hair in your favor. because there is no hair squama to keep the color for a long time and hair cream rinses can't be washed inside the wig cap. our wig product is not available for dyeing. in additional, please pay attention to high temperature when you curl or straighten hair because it will do harm for hair. generally, the suitable temperature is around 70-90 degrees celsius. ![]() it can be curled or straightened by electronic hair stick under 120 degrees celsius. our wig product is made of kanekalon fiber which is a thermostable material and called "high-temperature resistance fiber". we do try our best to accurately represent colors on all our products.ġ. colors may vary slightly depending on your personal computer or cell phone monitor settings. hairstyle and color issue: all wigs are trimmed by hand, so the hairstyle may go slightly difference from different batch, you can restyle the wig base on your need.

The quarter-mile arrived in 16.5 seconds at 84 mph-reasonable performance, we thought, for a budget sport hatch. Thus motivated, the Spectra5 reached 60 mph from rest in 8.2 seconds and would have managed it in less time were it not for the need to shift into third at 57 mph. Certainly, the extra mass is shrugged off fairly well by the new 2.0-liter inline four, which features variable intake-valve timing and a bit more useful power than its predecessor (138 horsepower versus 124). The wider body brings with it a wider track than that of those rivals, too, which promises dynamic advantages. But the extra avoirdupois shouldn't be a problem for safety-conscious Americans looking to put metal between themselves and any lurking peril that might come their way.īesides, the new Spectra boasts a larger interior, better headroom, and wider shoulder room than its competitors. A comparable Ford Focus ZX5 is about 2750. It has become clear to us that Kia gets some of its good structural rigidity with more generous allocations of material (the Sedona minivan is a real porker), and the Spectra5 duly tips the scales at 2860 pounds. Particularly as the hatchback's ride-motion control is on the boy-racer side of the scale. Considering that the five-door Spectra5 wears stiffer springs, tighter shocks, and thicker bars than its equally new four-door siblings (which are available as Spectra LX and EX sedans), this was a pleasant surprise. Still, this Kia Spectra5 arrives with a sticker that is pleasingly light on the budget for a car with a long list of amenities, which include six airbags and four disc brakes.Īlso included on the Spectra5's résumé is a degree of refinement and sophistication we weren't quite expecting from a car this low on the demographic radar. As it does, of course, the distinct price advantage enjoyed by the Koreans is shrinking. Power report confirms, Korean quality-at least from the jointly owned axis of Hyundai and Kia-is closing in on the other Asian brands. (Groan here.)Įspecially to the Japanese imports. ![]() The Koreans learn fast, and their determination to succeed is, well, a Kia and present danger. Kia has a reputation for being a manufacturer of appliance vehicles-you know, nothing to fall in love with, just something that runs. 10/13/2023 0 Comments Chicago lockdown 2020![]() "Left unchecked, cases in Illinois will rise rapidly, hospital systems will be overwhelmed protective equipment will become scarce, and we will not have enough healthcare workers, or hospital beds, or ventilators for the overwhelming influx of sick patients. Officials said they are still finalizing plans to secure quarantine and isolation locations during the coronavirus pandemic, as well as to bolster hospital capacity, and support healthcare workers and first responders by making sure they have the medical supplies they need, such as protective gear and ventilators. This is a time for every man, woman, and child to be united together," Lightfoot said. "This is not a time for every man for himself. The governor and mayor urged people not to hoard food and medical supplies, reiterating that grocery stores, pharmacies, and medical clinics will stay open throughout the "stay at home" order. We here in Illinois have overcome obstacles before, and will do so again, and we will rise to this occasion." Any event of this magnitude should force us to change. "This will not last forever, however it's going to force us to change, but that's okay. We don't know yet all the steps we are going to have to take to get this virus under control," Pritzker said. "The easy thing to say today is that, soon, everything will go back to the way it was, but I want to be honest with you about that, too. However, the state's Pre-K through 12th grade schools remain subject to Pritzker's separate school closings order. ![]() The governor's order defines essential businesses as those that sell, process, or produce food, groceries, and medicine charities or non-profits, including food banks and shelters educational institutions healthcare and public health organizations human services operations essential government functions and infrastructure media outlets gas stations, auto supply and repair shops, and other transportation facilities banks, currency exchanges, and other financial institutions hardware and supply stores trades such as plumbers, electricians, HVAC, and other home and building maintenance services mail and delivery operations laundry services business supply stores public transportation and airports home care services residential facilities and hotels legal services manufacturing, distribution, and supply chain industries and funeral services. However, he said he's also ordering non-essential businesses to stop operating, and said anyone who can work from home must do so. Pritzker said people also can still go out to pick up meals at restaurants. On Sunday, and Monday, and Tuesday, and every day thereafter, those will be available to you." "There is absolutely no need to rush out to a grocery store or a gas station. "For the vast majority of you already taking precautions, your lives will not change very much," Pritzker said. Pritzker also said many people will still be able to go to work. The governor and mayor said, under the statewide "stay at home" order, people will still be able to go out to get food from the grocery, to get medical supplies from the pharmacy, to visit their doctor or healthcare provider, to fill up their car at the gas station, or to go for a run, hike, or walk with their dog as long as they practice social distancing. Lightfoot already had issued an order mandating anyone in Chicago who has tested positive for COVID-19, or who is showing symptoms, to stay home. We must be intentional about taking steps to flatten the curve," Lightfoot said. The coronavirus will not go away by happenstance. ![]() "We have seen what bold measures have yielded in places like Japan, and Singapore, and South Korea and, sadly, we are witnessing what is not happening around the world in countries that did not mobilize. Mayor Lori Lightfoot said the governor's order is a necessary step to reduce the spread of COVID-19 and "flatten the curve" - or slowing the outbreak so clinics and hospitals are not overwhelmed with virus-infected patients. "To avoid the loss of potentially tens of thousands of lives, we must enact an immediate stay at home order for the state of Illinois, so that is the action that I'm announcing today." "As this epidemic has progressed, we have had to make some hard decisions," Pritzker said Friday afternoon. JB Pritzker is issuing a statewide "stay at home" order, starting at 5 p.m. CHICAGO (CBS) - After more than two weeks of asking Illinois residents to stay home as much as possible during the coronavirus outbreak, Gov. 10/12/2023 0 Comments Revlon concealer eye![]() Make Imperfections Vanish: When applied, the Concealer Tool leaves no residue or detectable color – just a healthy-looking you.Includes 1 concealer tool in medium mahogany.

Get your kids to measure the flour, cornflour and baking powder and add them to your bowl or free-standing mixer. Mix the sugar and butter together with wooden spoons, a spatula or the k paddle of your free-standing mixer. If it’s not, get your kids to cut it into small pieces and pop it into the microwave for 10 seconds or so (not long enough to melt it). Your butter needs to soft before you mix it. Get your kids to measure the butter and icing sugar out and dd them to a large mixing bowl or free-standing mixer. Line 2-3 baking trays with baking/parchment paper Mix the butter and sugar together Sprinkles (optional) How to make Viennese fingers I think this makes Viennese fingers a little easier to make especially for little bakers. The difference comes in how you pipe it: Viennese fingers are piped in a straight line, whereas Viennese whirls are piped in a swirl and then sandwiched together. ![]() The biscuit dough itself is the same in a Viennese finger and Viennese whirl. ![]() What’s the difference between a Viennese finger and a Viennese whirl? They’re soft and crumbly to eat, and perfect served with a cup of tea. Viennse fingers are a delicious soft buttery, shortbread style biscuit, topped with a little chocolate. Although they’re British born, they are inspired by an Austrian biscuit so I suppose they were named in honour of that. They might sound like they’re from Austria (it’s what I originally assumed), but they are in fact a British invention. Or you can use different types of chocolate or even get your kids to decorate the ends with sprinkles. If you don’t want to add the chocolate, you can miss this step out – the biscuits are tasty enough without it. If you have younger children that finds piping too difficult, this is a great, easy job for them. Lastly, we dipped the ends of our biscuits in chocolate. Piping in a straight line is relatively easy although I find it helps if I hold the bag with them and help them squeeze the mixture out while they guide the bag. It’s certainly a bit different to rolling out the dough or using cutters. My kids like trying their hand at piping so these were a fun biscuit to try. It’s important the mix is quite soft before you pipe it so you might need to give your kids a hand or do it in a free-standing mixer. Even very young children can help measure out all the ingredients and mix them together. Viennese fingers are surprisingly easy to make, so very doable for children or novice bakers. Rather than having to pipe the biscuits out into a swirl you can just pipe in a straight line which is definitely a bit less tricky, especially for small hands. We’ve made Mary Berry’s Viennese whirls before but thought these Viennese fingers might be a little easier. When i’m baking with kids, I generally like to stick to really simple recipes, but these, although they might look a little tricky to make are easier than you think, meaning even children can give them a go. These Viennese fingers are an elegant looking buttery shortbread biscuit. They might look a bit tricky to make, but they’re easier than you think, meaning even children and beginner bakers can give them a try. ![]() Viennese fingers Viennese fingers dipped in chocolate are a delicious buttery shortbread biscuit. |
