The general port settings can be found (/Software-Documentation/en/MAMP-PRO-Mac/Settings/Ports-and-User/). In most cases, you will not need to change the default value. Specify the port on which the virtual host will be accessible. If you want to choose which of the IP addresses to associate with a host, select it from the pop-up menu. If this field is left blank or contains an asterisk (*), the web server will use one of the computer’s IP addresses to access this host. To be able to select a value from this drop-down list, you must select the “Include Dynamic DNS service in GroupStart” checkbox in the “Dynamic DNS” section (Servers & Services) and enter your account information in one of the offered services. Specifies whether this virtual host is accessible from the Internet using the (/Software-Dokumentation/en/MAMP-PRO-Mac/Servers-and-Services/Dynamic-DNS/). To view the configuration of the currently selected PHP version, click the arrow button to the right of the select box. If you set the PHP version in the PHP section to “7.0.33”, MAMP PRO will change the PHP version of HostA to this version (it is set to always use the default version). You have set HostA to PHP version “Default (7.4.5)”, HostB to “7.3.17” and HostC to “5.6.40”. Use a fixed setting to tell MAMP PRO not to alter the PHP version.Īn example: The default version is 7.4.5. If you select the default PHP version MAMP PRO will automatically adapt this setting if you choose a new default version in the PHP tab. ![]() ![]() Here you select which PHP version should be used for the host. The “Open in” button allows you to open the host’s website in a specific browser. This button is only active when the servers are running. To open your new host in your default browser, click on the “Open” button to the right of the host name field. The name of a host can be up to 254 characters long. The host name may only contain letters and/or numbers, as well as dashes (“-“) but it may not begin or end with a “-“ character. The unreversed name may conflict with an outside domain name. Often it’s practical to use a reverse domain naming scheme to easily identify them (e.g. The server name and port number in combination must be unique within MAMP PRO. ![]() ![]() ![]() Introducing pre-writing patterns in a fun, enticing, and active way will give you a much higher likelihood of success. These will often look like a ‘scribbly’ line, circles or dots. Start to use them when a child has become confident at making simple marks. This can be quite a long period (many months or years), and is dependent on the child. ![]() The time to use them is basically all the way between these two points. ‘scribbles’ and dots), and later on using letters. Pre-writing patterns are the phase of writing in between very early mark-making (i.e. They start really easy, but can grow increasingly more complex (if required). There is an order to follow (which I will set out shortly). Early success is crucial with fine motor activities, and can lead to many benefits (check out the 21 most important benefits here). This is great as children are able to do them, boosting their confidence and self esteem. Writing patterns can be extremely simple. Use loose parts and other objects Are Achievable Can be done in a range of exciting and fun ways They will introduce some of the following movements: Trying to copy them gets their arms and hands moving in ways they will not have experienced before. They help develop movements in their core, arms, shoulders and wrists, as well as helping them coordinate fine motor skills in their fingers and hands. Writing patterns can be done in the air, or with paint brushes on fences, or with all sorts of other large equipment. (To check out the many differences between fine and gross motor then take a look at this). This is good news, because at this early stage of development children are developing both their fine motor and their gross motor at the same time, and there is definitely a link between the two. One of the beauties of writing patterns is that they can be done both on a small and a big scale. Seeing writing patterns modelled provides images and a template in their minds. They encourage them to begin moving mark-making tools in different directions and in different formations. Pre-writing patterns help children to get a level of structure into their mark-making. Pre-writing patterns have multiple benefits for getting children engaged in early mark-making, and let’s take a look at some of them now… The Benefits Of Pre-Writing Patterns Structure Examples are things like circles and a line of dots. They are a collection of lots of simple types of lines. ‘Pre-writing patterns’ are also known as simply ‘writing patterns’ and also sometimes as ‘handwriting patterns’ (particularly simple handwriting patterns are the same as pre-writing patterns.) I will answer all of these questions in this article, and hopefully more! This guide is also included as part of my best-selling book ‘Squiggle, Fiddle, Splat – 101 Genius Fine Motor and Early Writing Activities.’ (You can check it out on Amazon here). Yet there is a lot to know about! How do you introduce pre-writing patterns? How can you make them fun? How can you get children interested and wanting to have a go? What order should you teach the patterns in? They offer so many benefits in a fun and achievable way. I would say that pre writing-patterns are something that children should be trying for a long time before they attempt writing letters. They are a bridge between the earliest mark-making and later writing letters. They are used by children when they are starting to get structure into their mark-making, moving beyond circles and dots. Pre-writing patterns are different types of lines such as zig-zags, waves, or spirals. These cover the whole stage of progress in between beginning to mark-make and, later on, writing words. One of the best of these in the early days are pre-writing patterns. There are distinct stages that children go through, and there are many strategies to help them on the way. Learning to write is a huge process that takes many years. ![]() 1/21/2024 0 Comments Netflix movies 2021 list![]() Pieces of a Womanĭirector: Kornél Mundruczó Cast: Vanessa Kirby, Shia LaBeouf, Ellen Burstyn ![]() The British production is superbly written and while the subject matter may not appeal to all, those who do dig in will find plenty to remember. The Digĭirector: Simon Stone Cast: Carey Mulligan, Ralph Fiennes, Lily JamesĮxemplary performances are found throughout this biopic that relives the moments of the excavation of the Sutton Hoo. The beautifully animated title may not pack the same punch as another Sony Animation movie we’ll feature a bit further down, it’s still a heartwarming and funny feature that’s been compared to the likes of The Iron Giant. Created in China, Sony Animation originally bought the movie but thanks to the Covid pandemic, eventually got sold onto Netflix. Netflix has picked up a number of Sony Animation movies this year and Wish Dragon is one of them. Wish Dragonĭirector: Chris Appelhans Cast: Jimmy Wong, John Cho, Constance Wu ![]() While the movie certainly has flaws, it sees another flawless performance from Amy Adams who plays an agoraphobic woman living in New York. There’s been a number of movies swept up by the pandemic preventing it from getting a wide theatrical release with The Woman in the Window ultimately getting sold from Fox to Netflix. Fatherhoodĭirector: Paul Weitz Cast: Kevin Hart, Alfre Woodard, Lil Rel Howery Its major pitfalls are what I think are hallmarks of Asian movies that tend to tell stories slightly different and can give you whiplash trying to keep up but perhaps that’s a personal flaw more than a movie flaw. The movie jumps in and out of Korean with plenty of English spoken throughout which makes this a truly international movie with stellar CGI. We follow one crew who seemingly manages to find a way to save their homeworld. The Korean movie is set years into the future when crews of space sweepers are after space debris to earn a few bucks. If big sci-fi blockbusters are your thing then Space Sweepers should be high up on your agenda. Space Sweepersĭirector: Sung-hee Jo Cast: Song Joong-Ki, Kim Tae-ri, Seon-kyu Jin While it’s certainly not going to be for everyone and you could spend all afternoon picking apart its gaping plot holes, there’s still a fun time to be had with impressive visuals albeit often nauseating depth of field. Snyder, known for his remake of Dawn of the Dead, reentered the zombie space with a fun 2 and a half hour frolic in the Las Vegas desert. Hot off the release of Zack Snyder’s Justice League for HBO Max, Netflix had its project with the famed director lined up to kickstart its summer 2021 movie schedule. Army of the Deadĭirector: Zack Snyder Cast: Dave Bautista, Ella Purnell, Ana de la Reguera While the movie does feel like it repeats itself several times throughout, it’s still an excellent character piece with two of today’s best actors. However, tensions arise which leads to several arguments throughout the early hours of the morning. The movie picks up after an awards evening with a couple coming home to have something to eat and then head to bed. That doesn’t apply to Malcolm & Marie which is wholly carried by two stunning performances by the leads. Let’s be honest, most of the “lockdown” series and movies produced with limited budgets have been subpar at best. Malcolm & Marieĭirector: Sam Levinson Cast: John David Washington and Zendaya The love story sees two who hope to one day be together but religious differences and duty hold them back. The hour and a half long feature film has every frame hand-painted and as a result, looks absolutely gorgeous. Netflix has been stepping up big time on the animation front and Bombay Rose is an excellent example of this. Bombay Roseĭirector: Gitanjali Rao Cast: Cyli Khare, Amit Deondi, Gargi Shitole Many have praised it being an excellent family adventure while some have called it too predictable and far inferior to the aforementioned Goonies movie. ![]() The movie is a hybrid of The Goonies and Indiana Jones where a group of kids in the summer set out to find secret lost treasures.

The building, originally built as a church, was the home of dance instruction company “Dance House” from 2007 until recently vacating with the sale of the building to the McLaughlins, which closed May 31. The concept of Mac’s is not a new one as the couple has been planning for the new company since 2018. The two products will act as a cornerstone to what will ultimately be a family entertainment center. This knowledge acted as a spring board into a new business venture. Lory Theater owners Justin and Hillary McLaughlin found a silver lining to the pandemic closure of their Highland business: They learned how to make frozen custard and gourmet popcorn. Showtimes can be found on its website at or by calling the showtime hotline at (618) 882-4977.Frozen custard sold at The Lory Theater while it was closed due to COVID now has a new, permanent home and name: Mac’s Family Fun Time The Lory Theater has been in downtown Highland since 1912, located at 810 Main Street. Do those guys even know what sacrifice and hard work actually is? I can tell you that she does know, and can speak to that.” I can guarantee that whatever time she is allotted, the knowledge she shares will be far more helpful logistically to another small company as opposed to some corporate big wig who has never laid it all on the line for a labor of love. Hillary’s husband Justin is immensely proud of her” “I’m just happy someone finally got wind of her expertise and experience and requested her to speak. We feel a responsibility to be good stewards of this little piece of history and to do it in our own fun way.” We have families who have been coming to The Lory for many generations. That is really what sets us apart from other cinemas or watching movies at home. They deserve the credit for the creative and fun experiences that we provide for each guest. We are so proud of our staff who often have experience performing in dance, band or theater. “We make our own silly promotional videos and gloriously cheesy advertisements for local businesses. “The Lory started over a hundred years ago as a live theater and it inspired me to infuse some theatrical elements into how we exhibit first run films now,” Hillary said. The mother of three stays very busy juggling her responsibilities, but she is always happy to offer advice to women getting into business. This story might sound familiar to local residents, but what readers might not know is that she achieved all of this after surviving a stage four breast cancer diagnosis in 2018. When the movies came back 18 months later, Hillary took both of those concepts and moved them to a full second company - a family entertainment center called Mac’s Family Fun Time. The front of the main auditorium was turned into yet another kitchen where she figured out how to make gourmet popcorn flavors such as caramel and cheddar. Once the forced covid closures hit, it was her leadership and creativity that saved the theater once again, turning the lobby into a temporary kitchen where they made and served frozen custard out the front door. In the pre-pandemic first eight years, Hillary’s leadership took the Lory from condemnable building to one of the highest grossing “twins” (a theater with only two screens) in the country. McLaughlin and husband Justin have owned and operated the Lory Theater in Highland, Ill., since Dec. Lory Theater’s Hillary McLaughlin has been asked to participate in a panel discussion on the subject of marketing with a limited budget, specifically focusing on the perspective of the small independent theaters like The Lory.

The Hybrids are available in two sizes, the HY20 and HY25, in silver or black, and there’s also a southpaw version of both reels in silver finish. There’s a clicker for light-tackle trolling or for when dead sticking a strip bait. There’s no cross-top bar so the angler can thumb the spool for optimum line control when live lining or fluke fishing. Maxel seems to have thought of everything. The arms of the "star" on the star wheel are ergonomically angled slightly inward toward the center of the reel so fingers can’t mistakenly alter the drag setting while cranking the handle. The star drag wheel has clicking detents so once the drag is set it won’t slip. The drag is buttery smooth, and there’s plenty of it – 28 pounds! This awesome power can stop fast-running school tuna, turn a powerful striped bass away from a jetty or win the argument when hauling a blackfish away from a wreck. ![]() When short stroking fish from deep water, the ratio is just perfect for gaining line and keeping it tight on every down stroke of the rod. It’s plenty fast for bluefish jigging at a quick pace, or with slowed down handle cranks it’s great for slow-pitch jigging. The Hybrid’s 5:1 gear ratio really hits the sweet spot. When bass or blues hit the jig on the drop down in free spool, you come tight to the fish in a nano second soon as you crank the handle. Re-engaging back into gear is instantaneous with a forward crank of the reel handle, which is great for jigging. While palming the reel in my left hand, I could quickly depress the thumb bar with my right thumb with no fumbling at all. I fished a Hybrid 25 for bottom fishing and also for jigging, and really liked the thumb bar spool release feature. The overall handle length is perfect for rapid line retrieval without being awkward. The round handle knob has a non-slip surface, and a small but very fisherman-friendly feature is the machined hourglass shape of the handle knob shaft that helps the angler’s fingers get the best grip on the knob. At only 13 ounces, it balances nicely with rods from 6 to 7-1/2 feet."Īdding to the comfort and superior design is an S-shape handle that keeps the handle knob closer to the center of the reel to minimize reel wobble while the angler is cranking fast for speed jigging. "You can buy one reel and use it for just about everything," said Jerry Gomber, Director of Development for Bimini Bay Outfitters, the Maxel distributor, "and the round shape and recessed reel foot positions the Hybrid low on the rod so it’s very comfortable to fish whether bottom fishing or jigging. The Hybrids are true multi task reels equally at home drifting for fluke, live lining for stripers, chumming or jigging bluefish, bottom fishing for sea bass and tog, and light trolling for dolphin and albies. For the latest publication list, visit here.They’re called Hybrid because they combine the engineering, machining and impeccable high standards of the company’s Ocean Max lever drag reels, but in a star-drag configuration. ![]() 1/20/2024 0 Comments Lind shutdown timer![]() ![]() You may find that (if you have more than one) that some are constant on and some are switched.

That battery is often used to power the radios, lights, computer, etc. Actually, in some cases, there is an additional battery in the trunk (Crown Vic's and others) that charges off the alternator, but is isolated when the engine is off. That way the radios shut down and the battery is protected. Option 3 is what you'll usually find in police cars. Usually the timers can be set anywhere from a few seconds to several hours. When the ignition or RAP is shut off, the timer starts and the power will be disconnected when the times is up. When the engine is started, the radios power up. Power from the battery is fed through the timer device to the radios. The more common option in the radio industry is to use a timer device triggered by the ignition or RAP.
