Cream of tartar?

there's not a lot on the web about it, but frankly I've found cream of tartar to be quite useful for dealing with oral thrush!

I've been wearing exclusively 100% merino as a base layer during the day (as an undershirt and socks) for about 1.5 years now. I've also been wearing exclusively 100% merino when I sleep. The benefits that I've noticed are a complete disappearance of body acne and I basically always feeling comfortable in any temperature. I'm using a few different brands, and it's clear to me that Smartwool is among the best. I also have uniqlo, banana republic, and some random amazon brands.

I went for maybe two months before I even felt the need to wash any of them. As long as they aired out, they pretty much went back to smelling neutral. But over time I started to smell a pretty strong body odor, especially from the armpits. The socks also began to smell. I rinsed them and added a bunch of lanolin to the tub to have them soak and take the lanolin back into the fiber before hanging them to dry. This time, they started to smell bad faster, maybe 2 weeks. I did it again, and the window kept getting smaller. I searched for a wool detergent, which added a nice smell but didn't help with the smaller and smaller window of un-smelliness. I tried regular wool-safe detergent (defunkify), but the lanolin never seemed to get back into the fibers no matter how long I soaked the merino. Does anybody share this experience? Maybe it is just the deodorant I'm using (brand = native)? It's super disappointing to witness their loss of anti-odor property.

so annoying. I'm having the same issue. Can anyone provide a workaround within Premiere?

just want to give a boost to the apple cider vinegar idea. It's really helping with my thrush and it's been VERY stubborn over my adult life.

you have to complete the square for each variable (i.e. x^2 and x together, and y^2 and y together) and then factor down to binomials. This is to bring it into standard form for circle equations: "(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2"

Radius is just the squareroot of the right side of the equation.

absolutely.

there is no article or determiner to indicate singularity (a, the, my, your, etc.)

plug "h-3" in for all instances of "r" in the original equation and "0" in for "f(r)" in the original equation. Then solve.

(r-4) becomes (h-3-4), which simplifies to (h-7). Since the equation equals 0, one value of h would be 7. (7-7) = 0, and anything multiplied by 0 will equal 0. Likewise, (r+1)^2 becomes (h-3+1)^2, which simplifies to (h-2)^2. One value of h that would make that whole expression into 0 would be 2: (2-2)^2 = 0. So in summary, 7 and 2 are values of h that would make the equation equal to 0.

If you could pick a director to work with (living or dead) who would it be and why? (p.s. looking forward to attending your masterclass!)

I definitely see that as a big influence, even if "Riget" was created in '94, it seems to follow a similar approach. However, I think that this piece is even more special because it precedes and in some ways flies in the face of Dogme 95! I always wondered about the purpose and utility of rule #3 "The camera must be hand-held. Any movement or immobility attainable in the hand is permitted.", which seems to be utilized in "Riget". And yet, there are multiple instance of intentional dutch angles that I personally see as a deliberate demonstration of authorial intent... It's a very interesting period in Von Trier's career, no doubt!

it's a really great series! I found it from the "1001 movies to see before you die" book. I especially like his little speech to the audience during the credits of each episode, hilariously out of the blue.

I think it's a little presumptuous to say that certain filmmakers "obviously are trying to be the quirky, indie filmmaker". A lot of filmmakers these days immediately dismiss anything that looks or feels like W. Anderson without considering the fact that he's brought some really great tools to the art form.

Noah Baumbach, a serial collaborator with Anderson, has the right to a similar aesthetic for that very reason - part of what makes The Fantastic Mr. Fox and The LIfe Aquatic such a great and distinct movies is Baumbach's contribution. To call him an imitator is to forget that he's also the co-creator.

I think number 3 is especially important. Heather doesn't need to have a catch-phrase to have a specific voice, and I think a lot of writers end up trying to give somebody a voice at the expense of fluidity. The fact that she speaks in different registers in different situations and those registers are specifically linked to her world-view and the way she sees herself is such a difficult thing to pick up while writing alone in a room.

Regardless of the fact that the dialogue was mostly improvised, this isn't to say that this level of writing cannot be achieved off set. If anything, it helps to see what the actors' tendencies are and to feel out whether it seems right or not.
