Solar panels are a key component of solar energy systems. When sunlight hits these cells, it excites the electrons, creating a flow of electricity. It is made up of multiple solar cells, which are made of semiconductor materials like silicon. What is a Solar Panel?Ī solar panel, also known as a photovoltaic (PV) panel, is a device that converts sunlight into electricity. Once you’ve written your code, you can upload it to the Arduino board, which will then execute the instructions and interact with various components connected to it. ![]() Well, the Arduino board is connected to your computer via a USB cable, and you can write code using the Arduino IDE (Integrated Development Environment). If you’re new to Arduino, you might be wondering how it works. With Arduino, you can build a wide range of projects, from simple LED blinkers to complex robots. It consists of a microcontroller board and a development environment, making it easy for beginners to get started with programming and electronics. Understanding the Basics What is Arduino?Īrduino is an open-source electronics platform that allows you to create interactive projects. Remember to choose the appropriate solar panel and voltage regulator based on your power requirements and the voltage needed by your Arduino. Here is a concise table with helpful factual information on how to connect a solar panel to an Arduino: Component Description Solar Panel Generates electricity from the sun Voltage Regulator Regulates the voltage to provide a stable power supply to the Arduino Wires Connect the solar panel, voltage regulator, and Arduino Arduino Microcontroller board that can be powered by the solar panel By following the proper wiring and using the right components, you can easily connect a solar panel to an Arduino and start powering your projects with clean energy. ![]() The solar panel will generate electricity from the sun, which will then be regulated by the voltage regulator to provide a stable power supply to the Arduino. To connect a solar panel to an Arduino, you will need a few components such as a solar panel, a voltage regulator, and some wires. ![]() By harnessing the power of the sun, you can create a sustainable and eco-friendly power source for your Arduino. Connecting a solar panel to an Arduino can be a great way to power your Arduino projects using renewable energy.

![]() I am not overweight, but did struggle in my youth with that extra 10 or so – a bit chunky. Great recipe Andie! I listened to your book on Audible during my runs and decided to check out your site. The fish did fall apart a bit and was messy, but I was then able to make good use of my Ruffles chips (representing the “chips” part of fish N chips) and scoop any slaw and fish that had snuck out. My back up plan was to separate the items on a plate and he could just eat the fish with a fork and eat the very lightly buttered and toasted bun as ala cartes. Anyway, I coaxed my 12 year old into trying it with his eyes closed and in a darkened room so that he couldn’t quite see the coleslaw in it. I had to pop several crackers in my mouth during the process to ensure their buttery flavor was intense enough ). I have a garden so I was able to use very fresh and pungent flat leaf parsley along with my Ritz crackers. My healthier fish sandwiches turned out awesome on my first try! I bought my cod from Costco (so, of course, I had 2.5 lbs instead of 1). Pingback: This Week In Food - Every Day Should Be Like This Put one cod filet on each of four bun halves, pile each filet with about 3 tablespoons of slaw, and top with the remaining bun halves. To serve, lay the sliced sandwich buns on a clean work surface.Transfer to the plate with the other filets. Add the remaining 2 filets and cook, undisturbed, until the undersides are crisp and lightly golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce the heat slightly and add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the skillet.Transfer to a plate and loosely tent the fish with foil to keep warm. Add 2 of the filets and cook, undisturbed, until the undersides are crisp and lightly golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.Transfer the coated filet to a plate and repeat the process with the remaining 3 filets. Flip the filet over and press to coat the other side evenly with the crumbs. Dip both sides of 1 cod filet first in the egg mixture, shaking the fish lightly over the bowl to allow for any excess to drip off, then put the filet into the bowl of crumbs, pressing to coat one side.Place the bowls of crumbs and eggs side by side to prepare for coating your fish. In another shallow bowl, lightly beat the eggs.Pour the crumbs into a wide, shallow bowl. In the bowl of a food processor, combine the crackers, garlic, parsley, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and the pepper.Cover and refrigerate the slaw until you’re ready to serve. Add the dressing to the coleslaw and stir to coat. In a small bowl, whisk to combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt. ![]() In a medium bowl, combine the coleslaw mix and scallions.How To Make This Fried Fish Sandwich – Step by Step Mickey D’s take note: this is what a fish sandwich should be. I’d all but forgotten about this incident until my recent grocery shop, when I saw the cod-on sale finally!-and thought briefly to bread it, pan-fry it, and sandwich it. ![]() I thought about re-trying a few of them, but then, no-not Swiss Cake Rolls. I was sour grapes for a day and a half, wondering if all of the foods I once loved were indeed underwhelming now, too. This lacking, combined with me being so disgruntled by the fact that I’ve always only peeled off the stupid Baltic Avenue Monopoly square from my soda, left me, in a word, ‘meh,’ about the whole experience. And sure enough-unwrapping it, eating it, I noticed how little flavor it had-outside of that which I can only attribute to its fried state. Now, for those of us who know a thing or two about childhood nostalgia and the kinds of forever-ago dreamy expectations that come with it, this meal was bound to send me barreling toward disappointment. I hadn’t had one in a while, until about six months ago, when driving around near my hometown, I saw a sign that Mickey D’s was offering a deal on my once-favorite fish sandwich. The tally is so startling it convinces me that even if I never get the chance to eat another, I’ll still-on the eve of my eighty-fifth birthday-be able to faintly taste them, to smell them, if reminded. Thousands of them, give or take one to two sandwiches. ![]() Did you grow up eating McDonald’s Filet-O-Fish sandwiches? Any kind of fried fish sandwiches? I sure did. That’s more down to people not liking to feel manipulated – and as if they have very little control over their conscious decisions. Most people would likely tell you it doesn’t – in the same way that, despite it being a multi-billion pound global industry dating back to the 15th century, plenty of people tell you they’re never persuaded by ads. Bern, the Swiss capital where the Toblerone bar was created, is called the ‘City of Bears’ and the bear features on its coat of arms – the logo thus pays tribute to the bar’s birthplace. Look closely at the mountain range, which mimics the chocolate’s distinctively-shaped chunks, and you’ll be able to find a bear standing on its hind legs. The Toblerone logo isn’t really subliminally selling you anything – unlike FedEx’s subtle promise of speedy deliveries and Amazon’s that you’ll be able to buy anything from A-Z. Created by Landor Associated design bureau in 1994, it’s received more than 40 design awards, and was mentioned in a run-down of the top 10 best emblems by Rolling Stone magazine. It’s a logo you’ve seen a million times, so where’s the subliminal message? Well, have you ever noticed that the arrow points from the ‘a’ to the ‘z’, telling your subconscious mind that you can literally get anything from Amazon? Plus, the arrow looks like a smile, subliminally making you feel good about the brand, so there are actually two messages cleverly hidden in one device.īet you’ve never clocked this one – FedEx make clever use of negative space – look between the ‘E’ and the ‘x’ and what do you spot? Yep, another arrow. In print advertising or logo design, there may be an image, colour or shape incorporated into it that takes you a while to see – but your subconscious has potentially registered it. Sometimes, it’ll involve words or images being flashed on a screen so briefly that you don’t detect them consciously (try 0.003 seconds). Potentially convincing people to buy your product or service through subliminal advertising can be done in a number of different ways. By one definition, it is: "The use by advertisers of images and sounds to influence consumers’ responses without their being consciously aware of it."’ (The study the claim was based on was later discredited.) Subliminal Advertising: A DefinitionĪccording to Campaign magazine, ‘the definition of subliminal advertising is quite broad. Subliminal messaging in ads was first introduced as a concept by James Vickery, and then by Vance Packard in his book from 1952, The Hidden Persuaders, which claimed that Coca-Cola had used subliminal advertising in cinemas to drive sales of drinks and popcorn. So, a subliminal message is one that’s bypassing your conscious mind, but being picked up by your subconscious. There’s no formal agreement on how fast the subconscious mind is, but scientists posit that it can process up to 500,000 times more than the conscious mind is able to. So that’s the amount of ‘bandwidth’ you have for paying conscious attention to at any given time. The human body sends around 11 million bits per second to the brain for processing its capacity has been estimated by the researcher Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi and by Bell Labs engineer Robert Lucky at 120 bits per second. As the subconscious, or unintentional aspect of your mind represents around 90% of your total brain function, it’s clearly way more powerful than your conscious mind when it comes to processing information. ![]() You can picture your subconscious mind in the same way as an iceberg, with far more of its mass below the surface than above. Subliminal messages are below the threshold of conscious perception. They’re often put into songs, films or adverts, as they can be used to enhance the persuasiveness of something – or convey something else entirely. ![]() A subliminal message is an audio or visual stimuli that’s not perceived by your conscious mind. ![]() LinkedList values = new((_ => rand.Next()) Ĭredit goes to for the simple shuffling code. dealing out more than log(n) of your "deck"), you'll be better off just shuffling your entire deck first, and then pulling from the top: public IEnumerable UniqueRandomValues(IDictionary dict) If, on the other hand, you're planning to pull a significant number of elements from your dictionary (i.e. TKey randomKey = (rand.Next(0, values.Count)) // hat tip randomValue = values The code for this would be a little more complicated, so if you're willing to sacrifice some performance for simplicity you could just do this: public IEnumerable UniqueRandomValues(IDictionary dict)ĭictionary values = new Dictionary(dict) You'll probably also want to make the list into a LinkedList, because even though it'll be slower to find an item by its index, it's much less expensive to remove elements from the middle of it. If you're only getting a few elements out of a large Dictionary, then you should be able to adapt my other answer, removing the random element from the list each time a new one is retrieved. In that case, the best strategy will depend on exactly what you're doing. Once a card is dealt, you never want to see the same card again until a re-shuffle. However, your comments make it sound like you might be hoping to get a series of "unique" elements out of the Dictionary, sort of like dealing cards from a deck. My other answer is correct for the question, and would be useful in many cases like getting roll information from custom dice (each die's roll is random, independent of the other dice). My tests show that with 1000 objects in the dictionary, this method goes about 70 times faster than the other suggested methods. Not as big a deal as #1, but it's still over twice as fast this way. ![]() It doesn't have to perform a lookup based on the Dictionary's key each time you fetch a random value. ![]() This is a really big deal if your dictionary has a lot of elements in it.
![]() To commence the 2007–2008 season, Hafþór moved back to play for FSu Selfoss and averaged 6.7 points per game, helping the team to achieve a promotion to the Úrvalsdeild. However, after a screw in his ankle shattered, he had to undergo a second surgery in November, forcing him to miss the rest of the season. After recovering, in 2006, Hafþór moved to KR in the Icelandic top-tier Úrvalsdeild. The following season, he transferred to FSu Selfoss, but after about ten games, it was discovered that he had been playing with a broken bone in his ankle and required surgery. He started his senior team career for the Icelandic 1. Hafþór began his athletic career as a basketball player, playing as a center with a bodyweight of around 105 kg (231 lb). Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson Personal information Hafþór has two sisters: Bryndís Björg Björnsdóttir and Hafdís Lind Björnsdóttir. Hafþór's grandfather Reynir Ásgeirsson is also very tall and just as broad across the chest. His imposing height of 205 cm (6 ft 9 in) is credited to his 203 cm (6 ft 8 in) father, Björn Þor Reynisson, and his mother, Ragnheiður Juliusdottir, who is also of tall stature. Ī lanky teenager, Hafþór gained size and strength through daily exercise, combining basic movements ( push-ups, chin-ups, and sit-ups) with working at his grandfather's farm during summers and lifting natural stones in the wilderness. He was also a chess player, with a Blitz rating of 800. As a student at the polytechnic school in Breiðholt, he was enthusiastic about sports and played soccer and did gymnastics, before discovering his passion for basketball in eighth grade. He received his primary education at Grundaskóli and then Hjallaskóli hill school, but due to high levels of energy as a child, he had difficulty sitting in a classroom or concentrating on his studies. When he was eleven years old, his family moved to Kópavogur. Hafþór was born on 26 November 1988 in Reykjavík, Iceland. In March 2023, Hafþór was inducted into the International Sports Hall of Fame. He is often simply referred to as "Thor" or "the Mountain", the latter due to his Game of Thrones character and his own massive size. Hafþór has also appeared in television as an actor, portraying "The Mountain" Ser Gregor Clegane in the HBO series Game of Thrones for five seasons. With 30 international competition wins, he is the third most decorated strongman in history, behind Lithuania's Žydrūnas Savickas and Poland's Mariusz Pudzianowski, and in terms of pure brute strength, many strength analysts and strongman experts regard Hafþór as "the strongest man to have ever lived". He is the first and only person to have won the Arnold Strongman Classic, the Europe's Strongest Man, and the World's Strongest Man competitions in the same calendar year and holds numerous Strongman titles from multiple strength federations, including multiple world records. Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson ( Icelandic: i transliterated as Hafthor in English, born 26 November 1988), is an Icelandic professional strongman who is widely regarded as one of the greatest strength athletes of all time. Knead and mix thoroughly before adding more as you do not want to add too much or your slime will get too hard. We like to add in 1 tablespoon to start and then mix.

Soon, the decoration was modified to suit the targeted market. This was the English style of the day, but was popularized throughout southern Germany and Central Europe the same design appears on the sides of painted barges. A clock dating from 1770 may have a painted face shield with roses and castles. The variety of cuckoo clocks reflects clock-making styles of the time. Ketterer used the church organ pipe as the basis for the production of the cuckoo's sound, and his clock-making abilities were so skilled that the cuckoo clock became known for its reliability as a timepiece. Ketterer's clocks were driven by suspended weights shaped like pineĬones, and these were adapted to the wood-frame style later. They had face shields-full front plates that were enameled with the face near the center-rather than the wood frame developed later. The cuckoo's sound was simply incorporated in the contemporary clocks of the day. The cuckoo clock may have been invented in about 1730 by Franz Anton Ketterer, a well-known Black Forest clockmaker from Schonwald. By the late 1700s, the clocks were a profitable export for the region and were sold as far away as Russia. The clockmaker made his own patterns and styles parts for his clocks were unique and not interchangeable with other makers. They also worked together as a group with specialists in frame-making, manufacturing the clockworks, making and painting dials, brass founding, making chains and gongs, finishing metal parts, and performing many supporting tasks. The local citizens learned how to copy the clock and make the tools to craft it. Glass-making was a traditional craft, and clock-making sprang indirectly from this when, in about 1640, a traveler introduced a simple Bohemian clock operated by three wheels on a train (continuous drive), a verge escapement (the device that allows the train to advance a controlled amount by restraining it with weights), and a foliot (a balance bar). With forestry and agriculture limited during this season, a cottage industry in the production of clocks grew in the Black Forest. Winters there are long, dark, cold, and characterized by deep snowfalls. ![]() ![]() The provinces of Baden and Wuirttemburg (now the province of Baden-Wiirttemburg) lie deep in the Black Forest region of Germany. The cuckoo clock has an impressive parent in the Black Forest clock. Two weights shaped like pine cones that dangle from the ends of chains and a pendulum that is tipped with a leaf add to the traditional appearance, although these are only decorative on modern clocks that are spring-driven. Inside the clock, a finely made set of brass clockworks controls the time-telling. The sets of pipe-and-bellows are mounted on either side of the clock with slots cut through the wood frame opposite the bellow vents to allow the sound to be heard. When the tiny wood cuckoo emerges to call the hour, two small pipes attached to two miniature bellows make his call. The cuckoo clock known today is the most popular form of ornamental clock-one that is decorative as well as functional. He is often introduced or followed by a parade of townspeople, forest creatures, or other animals that circle through another door and seem to celebrate the passing of every hour and the timelessness of their carefully crafted clock home. On the hour (and often the half-and quarter-hour as well), the charming carved bird pops out of a door to sing the hour in a melodic "Cuckoo!Cuckoo!" call. And, finally, there is the cuckoo and its fellows. The clock itself is made in the premier clock-and watch-making area of the world. The outer worked wood case is usually made of beautiful dark wood that is intricately carved with folk and forest scenes. ![]() The clock is prized for a number of its features. The cuckoo clock is a favorite souvenir of travelers in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, and particularly the Black Forest region of Germany.
