![]() What I like most about this wine is its versatility with sweets as well as with Mediterranean or Asian cuisines (Vietnamese or Thai). You might find the other varietals in local stores, but the 2016 Reserve Tempranillo can only be purchased directly from the winery. I’m a huge fun of dark chocolates and Tempranillo so naturally my favorites are #4 and #6. 2017 Reserved Cabernet Sauvignon w/ Tanzania Dark Chocolate Truffle.2016 Isosceles w/ Justin Cabernet Sauvignon Dark Chocolate.2016 Reserve Tempranillo w/ Dark Chocolate Hazelnut Praline.2017 Justification w/Smoked Sea Salt Caramel Milk Chocolate.2018 Viognier w/Passion Fruit White Chocolate.2018 Rose w/ Strawberry Basil White Chocolate.I had a chance to sample this world-class Bordeaux-blend paired with their in-house chocolates what a treat (literally!) to have their pastry chef prepare a private wine chocolate pairing. Their flagship wine, Isosceles, helped put Justin on the map earning it the #6 spot among Wine Spectator’s Top 100 wines in 2000. Six years later, their first production was introduced to the public. For those unfamiliar with the history of Justine wines, it was founded by former investment banker Justin Baldwin and his wife, Deborah in 1981. ![]() By the way, they have grapevines for sale in case you’re an aspiring winemaker.Īnyone who’s been at Costco will recognize the Justin brand especially after Fiji Water acquired them in 2010. When that red Rhone varietals hit the back of your mouth, and go down your throat, it's the best feeling! Even better, there is a vintage chart available on their website to tell you an optimal time to drink your wine so you can really savor every sip. The red blends are full bodied, yet smooth and elegant. I'm not a huge fan of Rhone varietals, but absolutely enjoyed their white blend, Esprit de Blanc (retail $45 per bottle, $36 for members). 2017 En Gobelet (exclusive only to members).2016 Mourvedre (the chief grape in their blend).Known for their organically grown, hand-harvested Rhone varieties of grapes, this winery produces a number of blends, including whites. And if your palate gravitates to California wines, these Old World wines may take time to grow on you. If you’ve been to the Rhone region of France and enjoyed the wines, look no further than Tablas Creek.

![]() In no time, our stories got picked up by the likes of Forbes, Foxnews, Gizmodo, TechCrunch, Engadget, The Verge, Macrumors, and many others. PiunikaWeb started as purely an investigative tech journalism website with main focus on ‘breaking’ or ‘exclusive’ news. Note: We have more such stories in our dedicated Gaming section so be sure to follow them as well. That said, we’ll keep an eye on the issues where XDefiant players are unable to redeem the beta code, or the code is not working and update this article as and when something noteworthy comes up. We are hopeful that Ubisoft will resolve these issues soon. I was supposed to get a email about a code from a twitch drop but it never came can I please have a beta code for Xbox? Also, this issue affects players across multiple platforms. Gamers are also facing this problem after having claimed beta access from Twitch. Allegedly, they have not received it even after a day or two of registering. ![]() XDefiant players ( 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10) also complain that they do not get the code on their email after having registered for the invite. A Redditor recommends that you create a new account and re-generate the invite link in order to get a new code. Luckily, we did come across a workaround that may help solve your problem. ![]() Potential workaround (Unable to redeem beta code) When I select Xbox it says: “This code has already been used”. Is there a way to fix this on my end, or is it just because there are a ton of people doing it right now? Whenever I try to redeem a code, it shows a continuous loading screen. Some players even get the error message as soon as they choose Xbox in the platform selection field. Understandably, this is frustrating for all those who have been trying to redeem the received code for hours. They also mentioned that they get a ‘This code has already been used’ error on using it. While on the other hand, another section of gamers claims that the code they have received on their email does not work. Apparently, they are getting continuously stuck on the loading screen.Īnd this has made some speculate that there might be a lot of load on the servers. XDefiant players unable to redeem beta codeĪccording to reports ( 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9), multiple players are experiencing difficulties when redeeming the beta code for the game. However, some are unhappy as they are unable to use the beta code to install the game on their devices. Once you have received your beta code, there is only one thing left to do - reclaim it and start playing. Shortly after the game’s closed beta debut, it became one of the most popular games to be streamed on Twitch. How to use the code for the XDefiant beta.

Lacks VPN, password manager, file shredder Read our full McAfee Internet Security review. Hardcore PC gamers may consider McAfee Gamer Security, which for $60 per year offers low-overhead protection for a single rig. But none of the McAfee products have a secure browser or webcam protection, which you often get with other premium antivirus programs.Īt the top is McAfee Total Protection Ultimate, which adds unlimited VPN service with no strings attached. The multi-device licenses of those two security suites also come with an identity-protection service. To get parental controls or one of the best password managers in the business, you'll have to spring for McAfee Total Protection or its sibling McAfee LiveSafe, which comes pre-installed on many new PCs. McAfee's malware detection has improved greatly in the past couple of years, but it's still not quite top-of-the-line.ĭespite that, the entry-level McAfee AntiVirus Plus is a bargain: $60 per year buys software for up to 10 (in practice, unlimited) devices, whether they run Windows, macOS, iOS or Android, and the software comes with a file shredder and a two-way firewall. Read our full Kaspersky Total Security review. We think it's the best antivirus software you can buy today. The premium antivirus suite, Kaspersky Total Security (£19.99 UK/$44.99 US), adds backup software, parental controls, file encryption, a file shredder and an unlimited password manager. It also includes software for macOS, Android and iOS. It has a secure browser, anti-theft protection for laptops, webcam protection and a limited-use VPN client that kicks in when you connect to an open Wi-Fi network. Kaspersky Internet Security (£17.49 UK/$39.99 US) is our top choice among midrange packages. But it's beaten by Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, which has even more features. The entry-level program, Kaspersky Anti-Virus (starting at £12.49 UK/$29.99 US), has dedicated ransomware protection, a virtual keyboard and a convenient online account portal. Kaspersky's Windows products have excellent malware-detection scores and a light-to-moderate system-performance impact, the two most important criteria in our rankings. Read our full Bitdefender Antivirus Plus review. ![]() The midrange Bitdefender Internet Security adds parental controls, webcam protection and a two-way firewall, while Bitdefender Total Security tops off the lineup with an anti-theft feature for laptops, a system optimizer and licenses for Bitdefender Antivirus for Mac and Bitdefender Mobile Security for Android.Ī fourth product, Bitdefender Premium Security, is basically Total Security with unlimited VPN usage, a cross-platform password manager and priority tech support.īut the best deal is the Bitdefender Family Pack, which puts Total Security on up to 15 devices for (a frequently discounted) $120 per year. It also offers the most value, with an unlimited (but Windows-only) password manager, a secure browser with a virtual keyboard, a Wi-Fi network scanner, a file shredder, protection against encrypting ransomware and Bitdefender's web-privacy software - features often found only with pricier antivirus packages. Its active scans don't add much to the background system impact, but that background load is a bit heavy. It has very good, if not perfect, malware-detection scores. Bitdefender Antivirus Plus is our top choice among entry-level antivirus products. ![]() This experience is available for free today on the Oculus store. This is an interactive experience with an original storyline, the latest DLC for Face Your Fears takes you to the sleepy town of Hawkins, Indiana, where you’ll encounter a series of spine-tingling events in the everyday world and its uncanny reflection, the Upside Down. Oculus has also teamed up with Turtle Rock and Netflix to release Face Your Fears: Stranger Things VR experience on the Gear VR. While we aren’t quite sure what Stranger Things: The VR Experience will entail, it will be quite striking to visit Hawkins in VR. We'd already had a glimpse of the game, but this week we got a deeper look at the mechanics of its unusual twist. It's due for release in autumn, and judging by the trailer, it looks pretty wild. This is the first time that Netflix is creating a special VR experience with Sony on PlayStation VR as Netflix is rather known to be an online video streaming service. Stranger Things VR is now available to preorder for the Meta Quest and Quest Pro. The trailer also states that the experience will be coming soon to PlayStation VR. They blink in a certain to describe a word and in this case it spells out “PSVR.” In the video above you can see the Christmas lights that were ever so popular in Season 1 of the show. The trailer itself is nothing special but what makes it exciting is that the popular hit show will be made into a VR experience. Now, they’ve released another bit of information on a new IP called Stranger Things: The VR Experience in collaboration with Netflix. Just this week they’ve announced and released information to various upcoming VR games such as Ace Combat 7 Skies Unknown, Moss, Star Child, and Blood & Truth. We’ll be sure to tune in and see which VR experiences take away some awards.Sony is full-steam ahead when it comes to PlayStation VR and unique IPs. ![]() But we have survived.The world was nearly destroyed by machines from parallel dimension 3000 years ago in a great battle which the ancients called The Rift War. Our dimensions were crushed our world was shattered. The Emmy Awards take place on September 17th at 5PM PT. Turtle Rock Studios, the developer of the hit multiplayer game Evolve and the two Left 4 Dead games for Xbox 360 and PC, have announced that it has partnered with both Oculus and Netflix to bring. The Stranger VR - The Great War has changed everything. It’s encouraging to see this type of content be so quickly welcomed by prestigious ceremonies such as this. That’s a decent selection of the VR experiences we’ve seen in the past year. Finally, we have The People’s House – Inside The White House With Barack And Michelle Obama ( download here for Rift), a piece that made headlines for featuring the former President in 360 degrees. Then there’s Mission: ISS, a space-set experience developed by Magnopus ( download here for Rift). One is Story Studio’s last project, Dear Angelica ( download here for Rift), which was easily its best and most memorable piece. The other experiences are in the Outstanding Original Interactive Program category, and they’re all made by or in collaboration with Oculus itself. Finally there’s The Simpsons: Planet of the Couches ( watch here). One of those is the VR experience based on Netflix’s hit TV series, Stranger Things ( watch here), another is the VR experience that ties-into the Amazon TV series, Mr. Three are in the Outstanding Creative Achievement In Interactive Media Within A Scripted Program category. The nominations for this year’s awards have just been revealed though, and there are plenty more VR experiences recognized.Ī total of six VR projects are getting nods this year. It was almost a year ago now that Oculus Story Studio’s animated short, Henry, won VR its first Emmy, not that it did the little critter any good. ![]() Also, another problem with today’s society is how we treat and see people with disorders and disabilities. Bumble then calls in two “experts.” Whatever makes these two so qualified surely does not show. Instead of examining subjectively, they automatically make objective observations. Doctors can easily give the wrong diagnosis, as shown here, and most of the time they do not in fact know what is best. Each of the four doctors confirms his inability to discern her problem. Bumble, is unable to identify Camilla’s condition, so he calls in several “professionals.” These stereotypical scientists decked out in white coats begin to study Camilla. Doctors like to act as though they know everything and subsequently know what is best. Recently this idea has become more widespread. The next point I’d like to make about today’s society is the idea that all doctors and specialists nowadays are seen as all-knowing and expertly qualified. Since she is predisposed to suggestion, she does as she is told and conforms further to the ever-increasing patterns. These patterns and stripes represent the literal patterns of society. Different patterns appear spontaneously, a metaphor demonstrating the effects of social pressuring. As the children cry out, Camilla finds her skin changing with each comment. Bullying is a horrible thing and Camilla is left to deal with it. Kids begin to shout out different colors and patterns mockingly. When she goes to school, Camilla finds herself the victim of countless verbal disparagements. The power of peer-pressure is not to be underestimated, for adolescents such as Camilla, like sheep, will blindly follow.Ĭamilla’s uncertainty is shown when metaphorical stripes cover Camilla’s skin head to toe. Camilla thus wants to “belong” with her friends, even if it means giving up her favorite thing. During this time, individuals are malleable and easily influenced by others. ![]() Stanley Hall theorized, adolescence is a required period of time in which a child transitions from a child to an adult. Because her friends find beans repulsive, Camilla finds she must too. The first mistake Camilla makes is conforming to her friends’ standards. Camilla likes lima beans but her friends do not. While I am not certain whether she is in middle school or not, I will go ahead and make the assumption that she is. ![]() So today I will be discussing and analyzing the subjects of conformity and peer-pressure, identity and existentialism, and construct of specialty.Ĭamilla Cream is your average student. Whether it was David Shannon’s intention or not, his book is secretly teaching children about philosophy and psychology when they read it without even knowing. I am not entirely sure how the thought got to me, but upon reviewing the book, I found that there were some very profound and contemporary themes woven throughout the plot and characterization. In elementary school I remember reading a book called A Bad Case of Stripes. Click anywhere on the screen to begin recording the entire screen, or click-and-drag to select an area to record.Click the circular red Record button on the screen recording window.To record your screen using QuickTime Player, follow these steps. This app comes installed by default on all Apple computers. ![]() In macOS, the QuickTime Player application can create screen recordings. I am sorry to read that you are disappointed.Record your screen in macOS Creating a recording it’s a waste of Money □ So it said OH ERROR RE INSTALL IT and like this was in 2019! So a YEAR later it’s free when I unstalled it it said report unable to install so I can’t uninstall it all u can do is look at the record screen and edit photos and videos□ IT ISI T FAIR ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE SCAMMING KIDS So I click “Your record button” it’s like a other app I installed! The Truth is this is a scam of happiness! I saw the advertisement they made and I installed it cause it looked like a lighter that helps people with having no abilities to screen record □,So moving on for when I clicked Record,I clicked it thinking it would work all I got was 5 seconds and I was shocked I was charged money □ but now it’s free,Like□ So beware if you do it, and when I got my 5 seconds I was like oh maybe it’s a glitch! But it wasn’t. Lastly, we provide a better deal for our yearly subscription. We strongly suggest you to check that out. ![]() We provide a free trial to all our users. Unfortunately, all the above-mentioned points are bear a cost for us. Moreover, we are adding new features as well. I would like to inform you that we are constantly making updates & maintenances to the app. It’s such a rip off don’t try it! it shouldn’t be that much a month! □ there is many apps out there that doesn’t cost any money and it’s absolutely free, also works really well I don’t recommend this app. And I know it gives you a few days free trial but last time I got an app with a free trial and even when I deleted it before the month was over it kept on paying constantly a month and I was tired of it and had to go in for a complaint. But to me it does because I’m not gonna spend my time screen recording every day just for one thing that I need to get done. I go onto the app just to try to screen record some thing and it wants me to pay $7.99 a month! Which to most people it wouldn’t harm them or affect them. So honestly I hate this app no offense to anyone who created it or anyone else who thinks that this is a great app but to me it’s not it says install it make it seems like it’s free but it’s not.
![]() Why doesn’t Captivate 2019 work? Ask Adobe.Įric Butow is owner of Butow Communications Group and keeper of this blog. The bad news is that the next version of RoboHelp is coming in June. Now I can finish the course in May after eight months of waiting for Adobe. The good news is that version works properly. I found Adobe Captivate 2017 on my Windows machine. Adobe made it that way.Ĭaptivate is one app in Adobe’s Technical Communication Suite, and so I’ve spent almost $400 for a suite with an app that doesn’t work.īut I got lucky. Yes, Adobe Captivate 2019 is hot garbage. You can’t have a product fail unless people don’t want to take care of it. Like Captivate 2017, the previous version. I told him there was no need because the problem was simple: I need a video that plays in Captivate the same way it does in my media player app. After all, it may be fixed in the next version. He claimed he didn’t understand why that was a problem. ![]() I finally received a second fix in April. When I sent e-mail, it was the “couple of weeks” refrain. When I first talked to them, they told me to get back to them in a couple of weeks if I didn’t hear from them. I also talked with a member of their development team. I was able to connect with the Captivate product manager. In eight months, they came up with one fix that didn’t work. When I imported that file and tried to play it, I discovered the video problem.Īdobe customer support identified the bug in September 2019. I was able to record the screen and export the recording to a video file without any trouble. So, why can’t Captivate do that? This seems like basic functionality. After all, it makes sense to have instructions on the screen happen at about the same time the student hears the directions. Having video that plays at its correct fps rate is important. ![]() The video itself plays at 30 frames per second (fps). That is, when I inserted a video file and audio file into one project, the video played at one frame every five seconds. In Captivate 2019, the ability to create a project is broken. This course will be published on Udemy in spring 2020. I tried using Captivate 2019 to create a new online course for Adobe RoboHelp. Second, you need people who can’t figure out how to make basic functions work. But for a product to be hot garbage, it needs two qualities.įirst, you need a product that fails in a basic function. And I didn’t say that Captivate 2019 is steaming hot garbage, either. ![]() The press release and accompanying Q3 Shareholder Letter are available on DoorDash's investor relations website at. ![]() ĭoorDash will conduct its Q3 earnings release call today at 2:00pm (PT) / 5:00pm (ET).

It lost a good deal of its initial, out-of-the-package softness after five washes, but it still felt comfortable after a shower. The Riley is made of long-staple Egyptian cotton, which means the fibers are long and strong, and it should last for years (we’ll keep testing it to see how it holds up, too). It’s wonderfully tactile, if you like a towel with a little more bite to it but don’t want something with a slight scratch (like the Onsen). It’s quick to absorb water and feels almost ticklish, but not quite. The loops are less densely packed, which means you can feel each one when you run your fingers over the towel or swipe it across your back. When you look across the surface of the Riley, you can see individual terry loops, each with room to move on its own. Both the Riley and the Frontgate are the same weight-700 grams per square meter (GSM)-but when you look across the surface of the plush Frontgate, you see densely packed, fluffy terry. That doesn’t mean it’s a “rough” towel, though. It’s thinner than the Frontgate, and it has more texture when you run it across your skin. If you prefer terry but don’t like thick, supersoft towels-or if you want a terry with a little more style and don’t mind splurging-we recommend the Riley Spa Bath Towel. (Monson’s interview in no way informed our decision to recommend Onsen towels.) ![]() To learn more about towels, I interviewed Rick Basinger, director of manufacturing and innovation at 1888 Mills I also spoke with Shane Monson, founder of Onsen, about lattice- and waffle-weave towels.
