![]() Your baby will discover all sorts of new things to surprise and delight her, and this baby swing’s 10 melodies and 5 nature sounds will be fun to discover together. Your little one will love relaxing in this swing chair, and thanks to the 6 swinging speeds, you can find the right pace to delight her. It also has a removable head support which keeps baby cozy and then removes when she needs more room. The DuetConnect baby swing and bouncer has a roomy seat, which reclines to find the right position to keep baby comfortable. There are two speed settings so that you can find just the right “vibe” to calm her. This terrific baby swing chair features gentle vibration to soothe and relax your child. Using the plug is a great way to save money on batteries, when using swing chairs! The DuetConnect lets you decide how you would like to power up: you have the option to use batteries when you’re away from a convenient power source or you can connect with a wall outlet, thanks to the chord and plug. This terrific product has a removable swing seat that doubles as a bouncer, so you’ll have two great ways to soothe your baby. I really like the fact that it is aesthetically pleasing and doesn’t take up a large amount of space.Moms love baby products that do more than one thing, so you’re sure to love the DuetConnect LX Swing and Bouncer, in Nyssa, from Graco. If I had to change anything, I would make it so that the seat itself had an option to become a little bit more of an upright angle for bouncing. The safety belts fasten easily, and are very secure to keep my baby in place. It was super easy and clicked right in and out without any trouble. My favorite part about this swing is that the product grows with your child and can be removed as a bouncer seat. I love that the chair is a swivel so it can be placed around 360 degrees depending on which way you want to orient your baby to swing in different directions (example: front to back, side to side, diagonal). These functions are also very easy to control without even reading the instructions. I like the variety of classical music tunes and nature sounds that it plays, and that there is a white noise option for soothing. It has various features such as two vibration settings, several adjustable swinging speeds, and a toy bar to entertain my baby. Our favorite swing We absolutely love this swing and are so happy we were able to test it through Stellar Product Testing Panel. The next thing I know, she was asleep!! So I unlatched the harness and put her in her bed. ![]() One day my babe was resisting her nap, so I gave up and plunked her into the swing, with the seat on vibrate and the swing gently swaying her while she watched her brother play. The swing itself is nearly silent, and the nature sounds and music are not obnoxious, which is quite a compliment with baby gadgets. My baby can’t reach the toy bar, but seems interested in looking at it. I like that I can rotate the chair on the swing base to face any direction. As in, maybe my toddler could do it? Yikes. That being said, I have wondered if it’s too easy. I have loved keeping the swing in the living room, and moving the portable, detachable bouncer seat wherever it is needed. I just had my 2nd baby 4 months ago, and have found that I need a safe place to put my baby in various rooms of the house, even more than I did with my first. Great little multipurpose swing and bouncer I received this baby swing from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I want to thank Stellar product Panel for sending me this amazing 2-1 to test and review! Overall I would recommend and would make a great baby shower gift for a new mom! The only thing I will change probably is the toy bar, maybe add toys with a mirror or rattle or sound? But overall, I really enjoy this new addition. I really enjoy that I am able to move the bouncer from room to room while playing with his older siblings, doing dishes or folding laundry. ![]() My little one enjoyed the swaying, which can be set in multiple directions front to back side to side and is pretty quiet. Also on the seat itself has a two setting vibration, high and low plus an off Switch. There are multiple sound and song settings you can use as well as volume controls. It’s just a simple neutral color scheme that matches pretty much any home or style you may have and can also be used for boys or girls. My husband had it assembled in about an hour?, directions were fairly simple. So I guess if you do not have much room for multiple baby items in your home, this is a great two for one. It is not too large that it takes up too much room and it’s a plus that it can also be used as a portable bouncer. Sway Me Graco’s Sway2Me swing with portable bouncer is a great two in one baby item.

Cognitive diagnosis is not assigned as part of the research visit. Participants are assessed annually either at the Banner Sun Health Research Institute or at their residences. All individuals reported independence in personal, home and community affairs and no difficulties or support for activities of daily living that related to cognition. All participants are community-dwelling, independent individuals deemed to be cognitively unimpaired based on structured interviews, testing, and study protocol assessment, and supported by self-reported medical history of no dementia, and no cognitive, neurological or other diagnoses with high likelihood to cause cognitive impairment. Study enrollment occurs continuously and participants are recruited through advertisements, community talks, referrals from current study participants throughout the state of Arizona, predominantly in Sun Cities of the northwest Phoenix metropolitan area. Since its inception in 2007, the study has collected demographic, physical, and cognitive data on older adults aged 50–110 years to explore factors associated with increased longevity and healthy aging. We report on a subset of participants of the ongoing Center for Healthy Aging Longevity Study. The aims of this study are to provide in the oldest-old: (1) norms for subtests and cognitive domains of in-person MoCA-30 and norms for MoCA-22 total score derived from in-person MoCA-30 by summing its subtests that do not require visual input, and (2) score equivalence of MMSE to MoCA-30 and MoCA-22, and MoCA-30 to MoCA-22. Lacking Telephone MoCA data, and given that equivalence of Telephone MoCA and MoCA-22 was recently demonstrated, we used the MoCA-22 as the next best option to equate it with the MMSE and MoCA-30. While two studies have equated MMSE and MoCA-30 to Telephone MoCA and MoCA-22 in the younger-old, equivalencies for the oldest-old have not been reported. Rather, higher MMSE scores correspond to lower MoCA-30 scores, likely because some of MoCA-30 subtests are more challenging. Equating MMSE to MoCA-30 in the younger-old shows that, although these two tests have identical score range (0–30), they do not have one-to-one correspondence. To facilitate continuity of cognitive tracking in individuals tested with MMSE, MoCA-30, and MoCA-Blind/ Telephone MoCA at different times and to provide comparability of data among multiple studies and trials, the ability to equate scores of these three tests is necessary. The MoCA-30 is more sensitive to mild forms of cognitive impairment, has a higher diagnostic accuracy than the MMSE, and is available at no cost. Recently, many clinical and research settings have switched to using the MoCA-30/ MoCA-Blind/ Telephone MoCA from the Mini-Mental State Exam (MMSE), another common screening measure. However, no norms for MoCA-30 subtests and domains or MoCA-Blind/ Telephone MoCA total score have been published for the oldest-old. To address the need for telephone cognitive screening, Telephone MoCA, identical to MoCA-Blind with slightly modified testing procedures to accommodate telephone testing, was developed and normative cut-points published for younger-old. ![]() The second challenge in testing the oldest-old is that prevalent frailty and other comorbidities prevent many of them from travelling to testing sites, which makes telephone screening a method of choice. Henceforth, the sum of in-person MoCA-30 subtests included in MoCA-Blind, that has maximum possible score of 22, is called MoCA-22. ![]() MoCA-Blind normative cut-points, to distinguish cognitively normal from cognitively impaired younger-old, were published for the sum of in-person MoCA-30 subtests included in MoCA-Blind. Additionally, MoCA-Blind, that includes MoCA-30 subtests that do not require visual input and has a maximum possible score of 22, was developed to enable in-person cognitive screening of individuals with visual impairment. In that vein, subtest and domain norms in younger-old (older adults younger than 90 years) have been published for one of the most frequently used screening measures, the in-person Montreal Cognitive Assessment that has a maximum possible score of 30 (MoCA-30). ![]() In such situations, subtest and domain norms allow for evaluation of completed subtests. First, sensory and cognitive impairments make many of the oldest-old unable to complete all subtests of in-person screening measures, which makes calculation of the total score and its comparison to normative values impossible. However, cognitive testing of this age group is challenging. Cognitive screening of the oldest-old (age 90 +) has become increasingly important, because this age group has the highest risk of dementia and its projected growth in the coming decades is rapid. ![]() Historical and political conditions during this journey shows the emergence of twenty years of alliance between the Ottoman Empire and the German Empire The research aims to shed light on the acquisitions of the journey, penetration of the German Empire and German capital into the Ottoman Empire. This journey will be analysed with that perspective. Also, the aims and acquisitions of the two empires will be analysed in this thesis. This journey gave rise to a convergence policy for these empires. ![]() The German Empire wanted to expand her influence and sphere of power to the East, and threat her rivals, especially France and Britain. She also tried to protect her rights and power in the European policy against internal and external threats. The Ottoman Empire lost the support of Britain and became an open target for the imperialist powers of the West. We see a policy of isolation for both, the Ottoman Empire and the German Empire in the late 19th century because of their policies against European Powers. This thesis analyses the journey of Kaiser Wilhelm II of the German Empire to the Ottoman Empire in 1898, during a very tense time of the Europe. A dense network of political schemes connected to internal, external and religious politics surrounded the German Emperor while on his journey to the Holy City. The comparison between the voyages makes it clear however, that while for the Franz Joseph his religious interest for the holy sites of Christendom far outweighed any strategical considerations, while the opposite can be said about the “peaceful crusade” that Wilhelm II undertook. Through the evaluation of source material, newspaper coverage and the scientific literature for each pilgrimage it tries to outline that both followed a very unique rational, composed of aspects from a wide range of topics: political, religious, economic and social. This paper tries to answer this question by examining the genesis of both pilgrimages within their historical background. A point of contention within the discourse surrounding these events was, whether they should be seen as merely pious affairs following the ancient tradition of Christian pilgrimage, or whether they were to be interpreted as political undertakings, aiming at the advancement of national interests. The two journeys undertaken by Joseph I of Austria-Hungary (1869) and Wilhelm II of Germany (1898) visiting the holy city of Jerusalem were closely followed by an interested European public and prominently discussed in contemporary newspapers. 9- MantisĪnother underrated car makes the list in the form of the Mantis! It’s probably an unfamiliar-looking body for you and most players really. It might be weak in turning and boosting, but it’s a beast in terms of sheer mass and strength. The Merc has a unique hitbox named after it which is only present on a few other cars. If you’re looking for a demo on an opponent, if you’re that type of player, well, you can’t miss with this bad boy. It also makes doing defensive plays and blocking look easier.

As we discussed a variety of issues I was running into – all of which were fairly quickly resolved – Mark mentioned that I should run DiskWarrior on all my spinning drives “once a month, or so.” This last week, as I was upgrading both my network ( read about it here) and two of my production RAIDs, I was talking with the support team at OWC. However, over the years, as I moved from single drives to RAIDs and shared storage, I let my version of DiskWarrior fall out of date until, finally, with the update to Catalina, I took it off my system. In Windows 2008 R2, we added a new MMC snap-in called Remote Desktop Connection Manager (SBMGR.msc on the Connection Broker machine).DiskWarrior, from Alsoft, is a one-trick pony: it repairs and optimizes files and disk directories. This Remote Desktop Connection Manager UI tool is available on a Remote Desktop Connection Broker server.

Step 1 Prepare Chiffon Cake: Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. This is easy tangerine cake recipe to make once you have thick pulpa, freshly made or thawed. To know approximate quantities, let me say I got 1 ½ cup of pulpa after boiling six tangerine oranges. Namely, this orange cake recipe requires no tangerine juice and zest only but you boil whole tangerines, cool and chop them until you get thick pulpa. Since fresh tangerines cannot wait that long, I decided to make an experiment with boiling the tangerine oranges in October and bake the cake in February.įrozen pulpa, once thawed, works great with the rest of ingredients and it is great to know, dear friends, this orange preserving works excellent ! It's a wonderful cake to take to a friend or serve at a party, because it makes 10 nice-sized pieces. It makes a perfect dessert, or a snack with tea, or a breakfast treat.

Speech Recognition runs independently of Cortana, which means that you can use the Microsoft's digital assistant for certain tasks and Speech Recognition to navigate and execute other commands. However, that doesn't mean that you can't get the best of both worlds. For example, if you meant to write "suite" and the feature recognized it as "suit," you can say "Correct suit," select the suggestion using the correction panel or say "Spell it" to speak the correct text, and then say "OK".Īlthough Speech Recognition doesn't offer a conversational experience like a personal assistant, it's still a powerful tool for anyone who needs to control their device entirely using only voice.Ĭortana also provides the ability to control a device with voice, but it's limited to a specific set of input commands, and it's not possible to control everything that appears on the screen. In the case that you need to correct some text that wasn't recognized accurately, use the "Correct" command followed by the text you want to change. However, remember that you'll have to say each punctuation mark and special character.įor example, if you want to insert the "Good morning, where do you like to go today?" sentence, you'll need to speak, "Open quote good morning comma where do you like to go today question mark close quote." If you need to dictate text, open the application (making sure the feature is in listening mode) and start dictating. Speech Recognition also includes the ability to convert voice into text using the dictation functionality, and it works automatically. For example, you can say "Press Windows A" to open Action Center.
