Into the wilderness piano5/12/2023 ![]() As articulated in their own words, arguments, and aims, the NCR is a movement interested in Christian privilege, not the Christian faith that led them to mobilize. For a social movement organized around a religious identity, religion and faith are surprisingly absent from the argumentation, and political ends towards preserving social privilege are ever present. Reliance on these arguments indicates how the political goal of having religion and prayer injected into public education is emphasized at the expense of respecting religion, even their own conservative Christian faith. The NCR claims that prayer is speech akin unto the category of protected speech, treating it as not about divine communion but rather mere utterances of opinion. But the content falling under the category of protected speech is considerably dirtier, more vulgar, and more often secular. Prayer is, at its core, supposed to be a sincere intercession and conversation with the divine. The NCR makes arguments for the inclusion of prayer that are politically expedient for preserving their privilege, namely relying on secular free speech rights to defend prayer and religious expression in public schools. Their political goals gain voice, while concern for religious free exercise is noticeably absent. The NCR employs arguments geared towards preserving privilege and not protecting the free exercise of religion. The NCR, as a social movement, demonstrates how mobilization can inadvertently strip an identity-based movement of the core of its identity. The NCR’s mobilization aims at preserving Christian social power and privilege with little-to-no attention paid to protecting religion qua religion-not just Christian faith-in America. ![]() The NCR mobilizes to include religion in a unique cultural institution (public education) involved in the training of future generations of American citizens. The New Christian Right (NCR) mobilizes secularized arguments of equality, victimhood and parental rights to advocate for school prayer. This dissertation is about how the political push for school prayer functions as an effort to retrench conservative social power and a conservative political worldview via identity-based politics.

Kodi usb backup5/12/2023 ![]() This is the file /storage/.kodi/userdata/keymaps/remote. Then I created a custom Kodi remote keymap, to associate that remote event to the Backspace Kodi action. So I decided to associate the scancode 0x142 to the unused KEY_TEXT button, which in turn is associated to the teletex LIRC event. See the file /usr/share/kodi/system/Lircmap.xml. The problem is that Kodi LIRC map convert the KEY_BACKSPACE into the back action, which is the same as KEY_ESC. They are usually asking where to find the path to the Kodi userdata folder. pressing the left key you should get:ĩ641.553993: event type EV_MSC(0x04): scancode = 0x151ĩ641.553993: event type EV_KEY(0x01) key_down: KEY_LEFT(0x0069)ĩ641.565262: event type EV_MSC(0x04): scancode = 0x151ĩ641.692059: event type EV_MSC(0x04): scancode = 0x151ĩ641.948038: event type EV_KEY(0x01) key_up: KEY_LEFT(0x0069)įinally you can restart LIRC and Kodi services:Įvery key on my remote was properly mapped from a LIRC button name to a Kodi action, except the backpasce key (scancode 0x142). Due to some of my tutorials like How to Merge Kodi Streaming Add-ons into the Video Library and Sync Genesis TV & Movie Libraries Across Multiple Kodi HTPCs, I get a lot of questions from people who are using something besides Windows. Using ir-keytable again, you can verify that the key name is now associated witht the scancode, e.g. Ir-keytable -a /storage/.config/rc_maps.cfg -s rc0 This table must be listed into the file /storage/.config/rc_maps.cfg: Now it is possible to create a map from scancodes to button names I created the file /storage/.config/rc_keymaps/X96MINI_KODI with the following map: To get a list of valid button names run the command: It turned out that my remote is using the NEC protocol (just experiment with the -p option above). Protocols changed to rc-5 jvc sony nec rc-6 Press some keys on the remote this is an example of the output when pressing the OK key on the remote:ĬoreELEC:~ # ir-keytable -p NEC,RC-5,RC-6,JVC,SONY -t Now the remote control is fully functional, including power off (go in stand-by) and power on (resume from standy-by).Ĭonnect to the CoreELEC box via SSH and stop the Kodi and LIRC (Linux Infrared Remote Control) services:Ĭheck if the remote is generating some events detected by the GNU/Linux LIRC subsystem: run the following command: I created a custom remote control keymap for LIRC and customized the remote Kodi keymap.

Large flakes scattered throughout the liquid: overcast skies, possibly with rain or snow.Cloudy liquid with small stars: thunderstorms or snow, depending on the temperature.Small dots in the liquid: potentially humid or foggy weather.Cloudy liquid: cloudy weather, perhaps with precipitation.Here is how to interpret a storm glass to predict the weather: Otherwise, place the glass on a shelf or table near an outer wall. Ideally, choose a window that gets relatively constant light throughout the day. You’ll get the best results placing the glass on a window sill. ![]() Placement of the storm glass plays a large role in how well it works. Use a Storm Glass to Predict the Weather It rarely snows in South Carolina, but when it did, I saw the most beautiful crystals in my storm glass. If that happens, check the purity of your chemicals and try again with better products. But, if the solution is cloudy, it’s likely the glass won’t function as intended. A slight amber tint (usually from an impurity in the camphor) is common and won’t affect storm glass function. However, impurities in the ingredients may result in a colored liquid. Ideally, your storm glass contains colorless, transparent liquid that forms crystals in response to the external environment. If you use a cork, wrap it with parafilm or coat it with wax to ensure a good seal. To seal glass, apply heat to the top of the tube until it softens, and tilt the tube so the glass edges melt together. Either place the mixture in a corked test tube or seal it within glass.You may need to warm the solutions to get them to mix. Add the potassium nitrate and ammonium chloride solution to the camphor solution.Dissolve the potassium nitrate and ammonium chloride in the water.Once you collect the chemicals, construction is easy: A water filter cartridge works, but if you use it then it will no longer be suitable for filtering drinking water! How to Make a Storm Glass Simply place some activated charcoal on a coffee filter and pour the alcohol through the charcoal. It’s possible the colored product may work just fine in a storm glass, creating a glass with a lavender liquid. While denatured alcohol sold in the United States is clear, it’s dyed in some other countries and may go by the name “methylated spirits.” Denatured alcohol sold within the European Union (EU) is ethanol, with smaller amounts of isopropyl alcohol, methyl ethyl ketone, denatonium benzonate (to make it taste bitter), and methyl violet (to dye it purple). If you use vodka, use 73 mL to replace the alcohol and water. Another option is to use 100-proof vodka (or other clear spirit). You can also use 70% alcohol, but then you need to use 16 mL water and 57 mL alcohol (because part of the product already contains water). Check to make sure it is denatured ethanol (ethyl alcohol) and not isopropyl alcohol (isopropanol). For ethanol, it’s easiest to use 99% alcohol from a drug store. ![]() Be sure to use distilled water or water purified by reverse osmosis and not tap water or spring water. You can make the ammonium chloride, if you like. You can buy some of the chemicals in store or order them online. They display multiple crystal shapes, so even if you don’t use them to predict the weather, they are fun to watch. ![]() Storm glass crystals can appear anywhere in the liquid.

You might also try dyeing your hair the color you desire if you’re not looking for a natural look. You can also try bleaching the orange areas again, after a while, although that would damage the hair more. In the same way, if you have undesired yellow or orange hair tones and wish for a more platinum or gray look, you should use purple shampoo or other purple-toned products. They work like magic because of simple color theory: blue and orange are opposite colors, therefore they cancel each other out. Here are all the at-home remedies you can use to get rid of orange hair tones: Blue Shampoosīlue shampoos, conditioners, and/or hair masks can help fix orange hair after bleaching. Other than that, hair can turn orange from lighter colors from the absence of toner, hard shower water, or even visits to the pool ( the chlorine is the culprit ). ![]() Lighter, blonde hair colors usually lift to yellow more easily. Most times, darker hair tones lift orange hair tones since they are vastly warm-toned and have a lot of pigment. To simplify things, cool tones are the first to be removed by bleach because they have smaller molecules, while warm tones are the last colors standing because of their larger, hidden molecules. When lightening the hair, the black hair color is the first one to be stripped out of the most visible pigments, revealing the hidden ones in the process, which are usually the warm red and orange hair tones. At its base, all hair colors have red hair pigment: dark-haired people have a base of dark red pigment, while brown hair has more of an orange pigment (which is still a product of red and yellow). While your hair may seem to be a single color, in reality, it is made up of pigments of different shades. Because bleaching is such a harmful process to your hair, if you want a drastic change (from dark hair to platinum blonde hair, let’s say), but still want to keep your hair’s integrity as much as possible, you have to understand that it will take several sessions at the salon until you get to the color your desire.

Leopard tracks are similar to those of a lion, but are smaller with an average stride distance of approximately 1m. Another helpful guide is the fact that these cats are highly social, which means there would usually be more than one set of tracks together. Their jaws and muzzles are similar to a hyena's, but hyenas are much stronger than African wild dogs. These wild dogs live and hunt in large packs and are known for their excellent hunting skills. Lion tracks are unlikely to be mistaken, mainly due to their large size. What dog is closest to a hyena African wild dogs are the largest of the African dogs and are very dangerous.
