And don't get us started on it for big holidays-it's a favorite traditional Mardi Gras food and a must-have ingredient for summer recipes over the 4th of July! So whether it's a go-to ingredient for family meals or you're trying it for the first time, you'll want to try these okra recipes. The point is that it's versatile: okra tastes just as good deep fried as it does being simmered to perfection in a rich and hearty jambalaya. Most people cook okra-by sautéing, blanching, or grilling it-so it's not slimy, although some people like it that way! That's because the texture lends itself as a great thickener for stews like gumbo. Okra pods are "mucilaginous," which means they produce an ooey gooey substance when cooked. Something else to know about okra? It can be slimy. It's good for you, too! The okra plant, typically in season from summer through early fall, is rich in nutrients like vitamin C and K. Crush slightly with the back side of a wooden spoon. Put the tomatoes and their juices in a medium bowl. Scatter the garlic over the top and drizzle with the oil. Place the okra and black-eyed peas on a rimmed baking sheet. It's a common ingredient in Southern comfort food and it's found in Oklahoma where Ree harvests it in her homegrown herb and vegetable garden. Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and heat to 400☏. Okra recipes often treat it as a vegetable traditionally used in soups, canning, or frying in a pan. It has a sweet, grassy flavor that's only enhanced in cooking. Wondering, what is okra? It's technically a fruit although that wouldn't be your first guess. "Then you haven't lived." That might seem like high praise for any fruit or vegetable, but that's how The Pioneer Woman describes okra. Note: The sun dried tomatoes I used were not preserved in olive oil, so no more calories were added to the dish."Have you ever picked okra, then walked inside, washed it, cut it in half lengthwise, sprinkled salt on it, and eaten it?" asks Ree Drummond. The sun dried tomatoes gave a wonderful deep colour to the sauce as well as rich flavour and the only risk of adding more calories is to mop up that delicious sauce with lots of crusty bread!! The outcome was more than I expected and the okra were very delicious. I also didn’t know if my the children would like them but as we say in Greece, “Ο Τολμών Νικά” (O Tolmon Nika – he who dares, wins). I thought it would be a great idea to use them, although a little risky as I didn’t know what the outcome would be. Suddenly a light bulb flashed into my head, like in the cartoons. When I was cooking this dish yesterday, when I reached out for the canned tomatoes and the tomato paste I saw the sun dried tomatoes in the cupboard. If I need to add some sweetness to a stew I add a grated carrot and if it doesn’t pair with the dish, I add some honey instead. I find that Greek tomatoes are so sweet and delicious that this is not needed. Sugar is added to the sauces to balance the acidity of tomatoes and although at the early stages of cooking I did use a pinch of sugar in my sauces, mainly because I watched Vefa (the first Greek Cook who had a cooking show on T.V.) using it. Many people add some sugar in recipes with tomato sauces. However, in Greece dill is used a lot and you can buy it anywhere, whereas you rarely find fennel fronds in Greece, unless you live in the countryside where it grows abundantly and you can find it some times at the farmers’ market, so I always have some at home to use. In the traditional Greek and Cypriot recipe, which is the same, no garlic is added but I have revisited some of my cooking habits and now I add it in many recipes.Īnother ingredient I have been using lately together with tomatoes, is tomato paste, which adds rich flavour to a dish.ĭill is another ingredient I was not really fond of because there was no dill in Cyprus (just fennel fronds) and you will not find it in any Cypriot recipes. I now use a non stick sautéing pan and with only 2 tablespoons olive oil (240 calories), the dish is lighter and healthier but keeps all the taste and flavour. In the traditional way of cooking “mpamies” you needed at least 1/2 cup of olive oil (950 calories) to shallow fry mpamies and then they were removed to the saucepan and the sauce was made in the remaining oil. I suppose you are wondering how can I be eating “ladera” when olive oil has so many calories? The answer is the way of cooking. Now that I am on diet, I cook “ladera” at least once a week.įor those of you who don’t know what “ladera” is, this is our Greek vegetarian dishes, which can be anything with seasonal vegetables, cooked with olive oil, because olive oil is their main condiment. To be frank I prefer them because they taste just as good and you save a lot of time without having to do the above procedure. This time of the year there are no fresh okra in Greece so I used frozen ones. Mpamies start appearing at the Greek farmers’ markets around early July. Colors could also be considered when looking for lines of symmetry. T designs have a particular number of lines of symmetry, or they could find the design with the most lines of symmetry. Students could find the lines of symmetry in the designs, they could see how many differen See the picture below for examples of lines of symmetry (John VandeWalle & Charles S. Tessellation patterns produce many lines of symmetry. Another thing that students could do is to find as many shapes as possible with a particular area and see what they can discover about the perimeter of the shapes. Students could find as many shapes as possible in a tessellation that have a particular perimeter and then see what they can discoverĪbout the areas of the shapes, using one tile as a unit. Ideas about area and perimeter can be combined for students to discover how they are different without using formulas. Later students could be given one or two tiles as a unit of measure and using them they could calculate the area of a large design. They could make with an area of six rectangles (or any other specified area). Students could look for shapes with specified sizes. Students could compare many different shapes within a design and try to figure out which shape is bigger by using the idea that area is a measure of covering. Students could trace around a small set of tiles in a pattern and find that by counting the tiles they can tell how big the shape is Tiles that are arranged so there are no holes or gaps can be used to teach students that area is a measure of covering. Another thing that students could do is to find a shape that has exactly 10 units (or any other specified number of units) for the perimeter. One thing that the students could do is to calculate the distance from one point to another in a tessellation if they hĪd to walk a certain path on the cracks between the tiles. Ts could use the lengths to calculate perimeter of the different tiles or the perimeter of the shapes that they used the tiles to make. The tiles could be used to talk about perimeter. Once students know what the length is of the sides of the different tiles, they could use the information to measure distances. Tiles used in tessellations can be used for measuring distances. S are not the usual geometric shapes the students could sketch a picture of the design or shape that they found. Students could possibly find how many different shapes they could make with six (or any number) tiles. So students could find some tiles that make a square, a large triangle, a hexagon, etc. Two or more tiles usually make some other shape. Students could count how many tiles are in a certain row (or square, or group, or triangle), they could count how many of the tiles arĮ colored a certain color, or they could find a group of eight diamonds (or any other specified shape). Since tessellations have patterns made from small sets of tiles they could be used for different counting activities. G the tessellation patterns, makes it worth the time spent on teaching about them. Just the problem solving, that is part of creatin The older the students, the more complicated the artwork and patterns can be. All students have an equal chance to make wonderful artwork and patterns with tessellations. Creating tessellations does not depend largely on numerical skills therefore students with many different levels of mathe They can be used from kindergarten to high school. Tessellations can be very useful in education and in teaching mathematics. "I started feeling nervous when the caller talked to a male voice asking about taking the corgis for a walk." She then thought it a prank, and wanted to bring the call to an end, she said. She addressed the caller as "ma'am" and said Kate was comfortable. The duchess's nurse told the inquest at the Royal Courts of Justice in London on Thursday that at first she thought it was plausible it might be the Queen calling, but had some concern because it was so early in the morning. In another email, sent to her matron and other colleagues the following day, she apologised for making a mistake, writing: "I feel very sorry for breaking security, I am ready for any punishment, Please do not hold responsible for this." If there is anything I could do to mend it I would do it myself, but it is all in their hands." Explaining how she was duped, she wrote: "At the moment in time, with that voice, I couldn't even think of anything else. The day after the hoax, Saldanha, in an email to her colleague, who cannot be named, expressed her distress, writing: "It's all my fault and I feel very bad about this getting you involved. The conversation that the two DJs, Mel Greig and Mike Christian, subsequently had with the second nurse about the duchess's medical condition was broadcast by the station. Saldanha, a mother of two, was found hanged, and with cuts to her wrists, at the hospital nurses' accommodation on 7 December 2012, three days after Sydney's 2Day FM radio station made the 5.30am call, which she had transferred, believing it to be a call from the Queen.

Simply right click any sensor element in the Sensor Status dialog and "Rename" it to something that makes more sense to you. As you are going through the list on the main Sensor Status dialog, holding your mouse over the element will provide a really nice tooltip explanation of what the sensor means. Many of the sensor elements HWiNFO will monitor have really bizarre, mysterious, or otherwise incomprehensible names. If you need to have a computer monitor one or more other computers on a network, this is the kind of functionality that requires that you purchase the "Pro" version of HWiNFO. This interface does not support monitoring "remote computers". These values can just as easily be calculated in the skin, which I demonstate in the MinMaxAvg skin in the example. Only the "current" value is possible with this interface. The old Rainmeter plugin for HWiNFO allowed you to obtain distinct values for "Current", "Minimum", "Maximum" and "Average" for each sensor element. This approach is very easy indeed on your hard drive. Windows is very clever about how it manages the Registry and changes are actually just stored in a memory copy of the hive, and only written to the physical disk periodically, and / or when you shut down Windows. It might occur to you that "writing" to the Windows Registry every 2 seconds might be working your hard drive a bit. That's really all there is to it! No plugin, no hideous and complicated hex numbers. The values are stored in the registry in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\HWiNFO64\VSB. So all you need to do is create Registry measures to obtain each of those values you want to display in your skin. Those numbers can be obtained by opening a cmd.exe Command Prompt, and typing in: reg query HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\HWiNFO64\VSB That will produce a listing like this: That will be that "Index" number that was assigned to each sensor element when you configured HWiNFO. ValueRaw N : This will contain a raw, unformatted version of the number value.Value N : This will contain a formatted version of the number value.įormatting will include commas for thousands separators, and the text value for the unit of measure.Label N : This will contain the name of the individual sensor element.Sensor N : This will contain the name of the top level sensor.You don't want HWiNFO using more resources than it needs to.įor each sensor element, four registry entries will be created and updated. This can be changed in the settings for HWiNFO, but I don't particularly recommend changing it. This will be done each time HWiNFO "polls" your sensors, which by default is every 2000ms or every 2 seconds. What happens is that HWiNFO will output the current values for all of the sensor elements you selected to the Windows Registry. The hard work is behind you! Using the values in a skin is actually really simple. HWiNFO will minimize to the Windows Notification Area, and will continue to run in the background. Note that Shared Memory Support is not required and should be left turned off:Ĭlick on "OK" and you are done! You can close the Sensor Status dialog. Then using the "Settings" option from the Windows Notification Area tray icon, configure HWiNFO with these recommended options. The first thing will be to get version 7.02 or later of the software from HWiNFO Home. The end-user of a skin will need to do some setup work with HWiNFO before using the skin. A distinct HWiNFO plugin for Rainmeter is no longer required. This allows you to output the current values of one or more sensors to the Windows Registry, where it can be easily accessed using the Registry measure in Rainmeter. The approach consists of tweaking a feature of HWiNFO that was implemented years ago to support using the software with the now long-dead Windows Sidebar gadgets. Martin Malik, the author of HWiNFO, has graciously worked with us to find a solution that will allow the software to be used for personal, non-commercial use in Rainmeter without having to purchase a license, while keeping his ability to monetize his application when used by commercial entities. This would make distributing Rainmeter skins to end-users problematic at best. As of version 7.0 of the HWiNFO hardware sensor monitoring tool, the software has changed to require purchasing a yearly "Pro" license in order to use the Shared Memory feature of the software that allowed it to interact with the HWiNFO plugin for Rainmeter.

However, before Sam can figure out what is going on, the Subterranean Hydra Emperor bursts through the parts of the floor. Finally, Sam reaches the pagota, and discovers a massive room underneath. Much like in Ancient Rome, Sam forges a path to the old pagota, traveling through castles and a village along the way. Sam then finds out that there is another Time-Lock in an old pagota, which is also the source of the time anomaly that NETRICSA detected when Sam first warps to Ancient China. Sam travels through some of China's countryside and enters some old buildings located in the area. These “anomalies” soon turn out to be more of Mental's forces, most likely left by the Evil Clone. Again, there appears to be strange anomalies in this time era. However, the Evil Clone escapes into another time period.Īfter defeating the Diablotaur, Sam is warped to Ancient China via the Time-Lock. Sam defeats the creature, which also shuts down the time anomaly noted at the start of the game. Finally, he brings out his big guns a gigantic creature named the Diablotaur. However, the Evil Clone is more prepared this time, and sends out stronger monsters at Sam. Sam goes through rather nasty trip through the sewers and gets back to where he started. After being tricked into giving some of his money to a stand made by the Evil Clone and seeing the large amount of enemy forces that are in the Colosseum, Sam decides to sneak into it via the sewers. He carves a path through the enemy forces until he manages to reach the Colosseum again. Sam, still determined to figure out what's going on, fights through the Roman countryside and ends up in Rome. After appearing and clearing out some of the Evil Clone's forces, a glitch in the Time-Lock warps Sam far away from the Colosseum. Sam teleports into the Colosseum in Ancient Rome. It's determined that Sam should enter the Time-Lock and investigate the anomaly himself. Soon afterwards, Sam and a scientist are investigating an unusual time anomaly in a lab. However, a short while after Mental leaves, the clone decides to jump into the Time-Lock. The game starts out with Mental talking to an Evil Serious Sam Clone and telling him not to cause any mischief nor get into his personal Time-Lock while he's gone.
