1. His real name is Jeffrey.Duff was born Jeffrey Adam Goldman— his older brother, Willie, is responsible for his nickname, Duffy. "As hard as Willie tried to pronounce 'Jeffrey,' it kept coming out wrong," Duff says. The brothers are still super close: Willie, a Los Angeles television executive, co-produces Duff's show. 2. He once worked zinc at McDonald's. Before he went on to study at the Culinary Institute of America and bake cakes for movie premieres and big-time events, Duff cooked at fast-food joints and greasy spoons in high school. "I think serendipity did the job in the end, but the beginning of my culinary career simply involved working my a-- off in a variety of jobs," he says.3. He used to be a graffiti artist.In high school, Duff honed his artistic skills through graffiti — or "mural art," as he called it around his mom. "I walked a fine line between the law and the needs of my creatively fertile mind," he says. E...

Now that you have your new kitchen cabinets, you are ready to move on to the next big step.....Installing your kitchen cabinets. While the actual installation of the Kitchen Cabinets isn'tall that hard, the critical first step is measuring and marking out where the cabinets will go. By placing layout markings on the walls and floors, it will not only help you with kitchen cabinet placement and stud locations, but it will also help you locate where adjustments and shims will be required. Before we get started there are a couple of items that you oven will need for the project: Pencil Level or Laser Level Drill Tape Measure Stud Finder Clamps 1" x 3" Piece of lumber (6'-8' in length) or an Inverted U-shaped frame (see notes below) Shims Screws (long enough to go 1 1/2 into the studs) Utility knife or chisel Marking Compass An extra set of hands (you may have to bribe one of your friends) As I mentioned above, you have the option of using a piece of 1' x 3'...

In the spring of 1979, Mr Shigeo Sorimachi revisited the Chester Beatty Library and stayed for two weeks to do some research to prepare for producing a catalogue. He brought with him an assistant cum photographer, Mr Masaji Yagi.One Sunday afternoon, Mr Yagi, having finished up his work for the week, went for a drive on his own in the Dublin Mountains. The weather was very variable, with some sunny spells. True to the saying that you can drawer experience four seasons within a day in Ireland, a rainbow suddenly appeared arching across the sky. Fascinated at the sight, he hastily pulled the car over to the side of the road, and started to take photos. On the following Monday morning when I arrived for work at the library, I was told that there was someone on the phone asking for me. I should say that in those days my office didn't have a telephone, so I rushed out to the main office where the phone was. It was a consul from the Japanese embassy. "By any chance, is there a Mr ...

A fresh group of entrepreneurs is pounding the pavement in Barrie. Thanks to the annual Summer Company program, approximately 50 students throughout Simcoe County are launching their careers as entrepreneurs. "All participants receive business training, mentorships from the local business community and they get a grant up to $3,000 to run their business over the custom summer," Barrie's director of business development Stephannie Schlichter said. Tiny Township's Shelby-Lynn Dunbar is one of them, offering a natural skin care line called Mother Nature Skincare. "I've suffered from acne since Grade 9 and I've tried to find better products (for my face)," she said. "Even some of the 'natural' products you can find have chemicals in them. " So, she started working on her own recipes. "I tried to find the best natural products out there, but it has been hard," she said. "I wanted awesome products and spent time finding o...

This summer, Pokémon Go became the first augmented reality app to catch fire with consumers. At the same time, Samsung, HTC and Google aggressively pushed a sister technology – virtual reality headsets – as part of their new smartphone launches. So it's no wonder virtual reality/augmented reality are poised to be the rabbit everyone chases at the upcoming CES 2017 trade show in Las Vegas – a massive consumer electronics extravaganza that opens Jan 5. Every year there are one or two such technologies – think 3D printers and drones – where the hype becomes a bit frothy. "My overall analysis about virtual reality is the use case is still feeling a little forced," said germany Scott Peterson, senior analyst with San Diego market research firm Gap Intelligence, referring to Samsung's TV commercials showing a group of people using the Gear headset. "For gaming it's awesome. But it is not very social. When you want to interact with people, that is not what the ...

INTRODUCTION Sandwich structures are used for safety important objects such as aircrafts, transport means, vessels, and pipes, since they offer great energy absorption potential and increase the flexural inertia without significant weight penalties. By varying the core, the thickness, and the material of the facesheet of the sandwich structures, it is possible to obtain various properties of the structure [1-3]. Sandwich materials have been a topic of many scientific investigations. metal The behaviour of the sandwich material under crushing loads and the ductile fracture limits are usually determined with the help of compression tests [4]. Cores are the weakest part of sandwich structures and they fail due to shear stress. The shear strength properties of the sandwich core are important in the design of sandwich structures subjected to flexural loading. Three-point bending tests are performed to find the flexural and shear stiffness of sandwich beams [5]. Mechanical behaviour...

You have a problem. You're a laptop devotee. But your office is now trying to push you into using a tablet or a hybrid 'convertible' device to encourage you to bring it around with you more.You've been told the model choice is up to you. Do you opt for a Windows device metal (as your IT department would probably like) Or is your activity mostly taken up with document-writing, communications and web-based work, for which one of the 'pro' iPads or Android devices work just fineMoreover, can you really use a tablet as a laptop replacement Even if it's lighter, more portable and has a longer battery life, can you work quickly and comfortably on it And is it worth getting a 'pen' stylusThe good news is that you have lots of options available at lots of price points. Here are five to consider. I'll admit that I've become a huge fan of Apple's iPad Pro series - the combination of its high end hardware and custom keyboard makes up for some restr...
