![]() So all told, unless you’re really clamoring for either promotional item, there’s likely to be much better offers towards the end of November when Black Friday rolls around. 5006363: Han Solo Carbonite Metal Keychain Image Images Minifigs Instructions Buy News Reviews Videos Alt. But even here, the fact that it’s targeted towards younger builders will likely be a tough sell. LEGO VIP’s can get a free Han Solo Carbonite LEGO keychain with qualifying purchases until November 8th. If LEGO has just paired it with the upcoming Baby Yoda set, I’m sure it would have ended up being much more popular of a promotion.Īs for the LEGO DOTS Star Wars band, it’s at least nice to see some new printed elements. As cool as the keychain may be, it likely won’t be enough to convince builders to pick up any new kits, especially with a $100 purchase required to lock it in. The upcoming releases look to continue that trend, at least for older fans. LEGO hasn’t quite figured out how to entice Star Wars fans lately, with many of its promotional kits or offerings falling flat for many. As of now, there are no details on if you’ll need to spend a certain dollar amount like the LEGO Han Solo in Carbonite Keychain in order to score this promotional item. It’s undoubtedly geared towards younger fans, but will notably mean that there are some new printed tiles with characters from the Star Wars universe including Darth Vader, R2-D2, and even some lightsabers. That same approach is now being leveraged for what looks to be an upcoming Star Wars wristband. The brand’s product line that brings studs and other bricks to home decor and fashion accessories launched at the beginning of the year and even got a bit of a boost from the Levi’s collaboration. LEGO is also teasing a Star Wars version of its DOTS theme, as well. ![]() We’ve seen the past several of these add-ons sell out quickly, so if this is one that catches your eye, it’s best to not wait once next month rolls around. You’ll need to shell out $100 on Star Wars kits specifically in order to score the freebie, with the promotion officially kicking off on November 1 and running through November 8. Lego Han Solo in Carbonite Key Chain (Metal) 5006363 Star Wars Episode 4/5/6. /rebates/2fen-us2fproduct2fcarbon-freezing-chamber-75137&. But now, there are some promotions on the way to change that.Īs the latest gift with purchase from LEGO, builders will be able to score a metal keychain of Han Solo in Carbonite. While yesterday’s Star Wars merchandise drop saw quite a few new unveils, LEGO was notably missing. LEGO has two new Star Wars promotions on the horizonĭetailed in its store calendar for November, LEGO getting in on the action from a galaxy far, far away brought on by the premiere of The Mandalorian season two.

![]() Remember, the 1099-K form is merely a summary of your earnings accrued through Venmo or other payment apps. Make sure Form 1040, or 1040-ES, and your Schedule C are filled outĮnsuring you’ve correctly filled out the necessary tax documents is a critical step. If the payments in question are job-related, it’s crucial to figure out the proper procedure for filing self-employment taxes. This helps ensure that only transactions related to your business operations will be reported. ![]() Separate personal payments from taxable incomeĬonveniently, Venmo allows users to establish a distinct business account separate from their personal one. ![]() This sharp decrease in reporting thresholds has added a new layer of complexity to the process.Ģ. In the past, the reporting threshold was considerably higher – businesses were obligated to report only if they had over 200 transactions and amassed more than $20,000. This new policy shift has sown seeds of confusion among taxpayers. Recent tax reporting modifications are now obligating Venmo, along with other similar payment apps, to report earned income. It primarily tracks and reports payment transactions executed through credit and debit cards, along with those facilitated via third-party networks like Venmo, PayPal, or CashApp, provided these transactions surpass the new $600 threshold. The 1099-K form and Venmo Taxesįorm 1099-K serves as an IRS information return that encourages taxpayers to comply more voluntarily with their tax obligations. This can be a game-changer for many, as it greatly lowers the bar compared to the previous reporting limit. With this change, all transactions crossing this amount, regardless of the third-party payment platform facilitating the transaction, could potentially trigger the IRS to dispatch form 1099-K. The 1099-K rule revision has significantly reduced the gross payments threshold to slightly above $600 for a given calendar year. Venmo Tax requirements under the 1099 rules are important to understand and follow in order to ensure compliance with the new tax rules outlined by the Internal Revenue Service. ![]() This is because two chemicals used by the digestive tract, an enzyme called intestinal alkaline phosphatase, and a lipoprotein called ApoB48 are secreted into the digestive tract in much higher amounts by type O's. There is also another unique characteristic of type O that is perhaps even more important: This blood type has a very well-developed ability to digest meals that contain both protein and fat. We've already mentioned the tendency of type O towards higher levels of stomach acid. These findings have been replicated many times since then. In the 1950’s it was discovered that Type O’s had about twice the instances of ulcers of all kinds than the other blood types. Blood Type O may be predisposed to certain illnesses, such as ulcers and thyroid disorders. However, when misdirected, this innate immune reactivity can sometimes get in the way of good health. Thus, what is commonly considered a transfusion complication was, in type O, a very useful defensive benefit. These antibodies undoubtably conveyed some survival advantage, as many of the common diseases that plagued our ancestors possessed markers (antigens) that simulated the other blood types. It is the only blood type that carries two opposing blood type antibodies (one blood type A and another against blood type B). Read More View Popular Recipes for Type O Peter D’Adamo, the author of the best selling books Eat Right for Your Type and Live Right for Your Type gives Type O’s some tips on leading a healthy lifestyle. This explains why some nutrients which are beneficial to one blood type, may be harmful to the cells of another. Foods and supplements contain lectins that interact with your cells depending on your blood type. Your blood type is a key to unlocking the secrets to your biochemical individuality. Why are some people plagued by poor health while others seem to live healthy, vital lives even late in life? Does blood type influence personality? A single drop of blood contains a biochemical make up as unique as your fingerprint. The Blood Type O Individualized Lifestyle Read on to learn more about the Type O individual. D'Adamo, author of the best selling books Eat Right for Your Type and Live Right for Your Type, among others, gives us a blueprint for living in his books. People who are O blood type have a different set of characteristics than people who are Type B or Type A - they are susceptible to different diseases, they should eat different foods and exercise in a completely different manner. The genetic information that resulted in their particular characteristics has been passed on to you. Even though you are living in the 21st century, you share a common bond with your ancestors. The key is genetic heritage - the story line of your life. It is also central to our exploration of blood types. This is the question that is at the heart of the genetic puzzle. ![]() However, due to the larger voltage (3.2 - 3.7 volts), lithium-ion batteries should not be used instead of 1.5V AA batteries, at least not in devices that don't support both battery types. They commonly have higher capacities, but maximum allowed currents are often limited to just a few C.ġ4500 batteries feature physical dimensions of 14 x 53 mm making them very similar to true AA battery dimensions of 14.5 x 50.5 mm - in order to make them more compatible, many manufacturers of 14500 batteries actually make them closer to AA standard dimensions (14.5 x 50.5) and often advertise as "lithium AA batteries". ![]() Lithium Cobalt Oxide (ICR, LiCoO2) AA battery chemistry feature a nominal voltage of 3.6 - 3.7 V per cell, with the maximum, recommended charging voltage of 4.2 V. Lithium Iron Phosphate (IFR, LiFePO4) AA battery chemistry feature a nominal voltage of 3.2 - 3.3 V per cell, with the maximum, recommended charging voltage of 3.5 - 3.6 V. Lithium Manganese Nickel (INR, LiNiMnCoO2) AA battery chemistry is very similar to IMR AA battery chemistry and they both can provide strong currents, with slightly lower capacity. IMR AA batteries commonly have a smaller capacity but are capable of delivering stronger currents. Lithium Manganese Oxide (IMR, LiMn204) AA battery chemistry feature a nominal voltage of 3.6 - 3.7 V per cell, with a maximum, recommended charging voltage of 4.2 V. Lithium-Ion AA batteries are based on one of the lithium-ion rechargeable chemistries, including: Lithium-Ion AA Batteries - 14500 Batteries One of the most popular Li-FeS 2 AA batteries is the Energizer Li-FeS 2 AA battery (Datasheet, PDF, link opens in the new window), which practically sets the standards for other Li-FeS 2 AA batteries. That is why Li-FeS 2 AA batteries are the preferred choice for high drain, but also for standby applications like cameras, flashlights, security systems, medical devices, etc. Other benefits of Li-FeS 2 AA chemistry include extra-long shelf life (up to 20 years!), stable capacity regardless of the discharge current (at least up to 600-800 mA current), supports of the high drain devices, etc. Lithium Iron Disulfide (Li-FeS 2) AA batteries are non-rechargeable batteries, featuring a nominal voltage of 1.5 volts and a typical capacity of 2700-3300 mAh, with some models having capacity up to 3500-3600 mAh.Īlthough their Open Circuit Voltage (OCV) is 1.8 volts, as soon as the load is applied, the voltage of the Li-FeS2 AA batteries drops down to 1.5 volts, making them compatible with older Zinc-Carbon and Alkaline AA batteries. Lithium Iron Disulfide (Li-FeS 2) AA Batteries Lithium AA batteries may feature several different chemistries, including: The following comparison chart lists some of the most popular AA battery chemistries, with their most important features and specifications. Lithium batteries that commonly feature 3.0+ volts, should NOT be used instead of 1.5V AA batteries unless explicitly allowed by the device manufacturer. Lithium AA batteries feature physical dimensions of 14.5 mm (0.57 inches) in diameter and 50.5 mm (1.99 inches) in length - just like any other AA battery.įor many years, the typical AA battery voltage was 1.5 volts with many devices still accepting only 1.5V AA batteries. ![]() Lithium AA Batteries - Dimensions, Chemistries, and Features Lithium is a lightweight, rather reactive metal, and its chemistries are commonly used in batteries providing different features including voltage, capacity, shelf-life, drain current, and similar.Ī typical AA battery is a 1.5 volts battery and with all the lithium chemistries in use, getting "the right one" may be a somewhat difficult task. Lithium AA Battery - Rechargeable vs Non-Rechargeable AA Lithium Batteries Who knows?! The possibilities are endless! I'm telling you, sometimes I get so wild around here, people.īut not as wild as all the bombs that Mackenzie Phillips was dropping on Oprah that afternoon while we snacked on plum tart and coffee. Something else I love about this recipe is its springboard qualities-I will be making this again very soon with pears, and possibly swapping out the walnuts for almonds and a dash of cinnamon or cardamom in the crust. No really, I mean, it's really pretty-I ended up with like 50 maddening-to-sort-through photos of the finished tart, I was so enamored with the whole thing. And that crumbly topping morphs into a nubbly, crunchy, edible crocheted afghan of sorts, with tips of ruby plums peeking out of the holes. When baked, the crust crisps up in the most surprising way, maintaining a nice snap even under the luscious baked fruit. It's really more of a tart/crumble hybrid-so much more interesting than your standard fruit tart. Buttery, brown sugared and studded with walnuts, I could happily munch a slice of the bare crust, no filling required.Įven better, the crust mixture pulls double duty here-some lines the tart pan, and the rest stays crumbly, sprinkled over the fanned-out fruit like a sandy blanket. It all comes together in mere minutes, patted into the pan, no precious rolling or messy flouring of workspace or blind baking involved. The crust for this tart is, in my opinion, the very best kind of crust, meaning the no-stress variety. Even if I'd been able to use the elusive Italian Prune Plums for this dish, I doubt they would have been as spectacular and noteworthy as the tweedy, nutty, crisp crust upon which they sat. Well, you (meaning I) would be all wrong about that. You'd think, with this being a plum tart and all, that the star would be the fruit. ![]() ![]() But I was wrong about Italian Prune Plum season-I'd hoped it might still be hanging on, but after searching three markets with an impatient toddler, I gave up and chose the deepest-hued regular plums I could find. I'd gathered an armful of firm-ripe plums at the market the day before, when I'd had an inkling that the weather man was just being a big liar again, and this "massive heatwave" he'd been yammering about for days was never really going to come. I'd had my eye on this recipe for the better part of a week and just couldn't get it out of my head. The relentless mist and wind made the thought of a post-lunchtime outing less than appealing, and Baby C had slipped into an easy, albeit short, morning nap. On the day of which I speak, this tart was in the oven by 10:00 am. So last week on One of Those Days, I sent out an SOS invitation to some friends who I was willing to bet were having the same kind of day we were: 3:00 pm, bring your babes, coffee, Oprah and One Really Good Plum Tart. Serve warm or cold.Sometimes, when the thick blanket of San Francisco fog makes it impossible to tell what time of day it is all day long, and I've already had three cups of coffee by 9:00 am and they're not making a dent in the feeling of blah, I know I have to spring into action to keep the day from being a total bust. Cool for 15 minutes on a wire rack then invert carefully onto a plate. ![]() Bake for 30 to 40 minutes until cake is done. Remove bowl from mixer and finish mixing batter together using a spatula.In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt and add to butter mixture, mixing briefly just until flour is barely incorporated into butter mixture. ![]() Scrape bottom and sides of bowl with a spatula to make sure ingredients are evenly mixed. Add eggs one at a time followed by sour cream, lemon zest and vanilla. Using an electric mixer cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. When caramel is an amber color, immediately pour over plums in dish. Place plums, cut side down into pie pan crowding them in so they’ll fit. Meanwhile grease a 9 inch glass pie pan liberally with butter and place on a sheet pan to catch any drips.Cook over medium high heat without stirring or moving pot until caramel reaches an amber color. Place a medium saucepan on stove burner and put sugar and water into pot.1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour.6 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature.8 blue plums, cut in half and pits removed (I sliced mine instead). If you're adamant that it stays in for some reason, it absolutely needs to be optional. Take a look at this feature one more time, devs. I don't really want my character looking more and more like a meth-head every day. The eye bags need to be optional.Īlso, after playing a bit longer, the eye bags make the characters look like drug addicts, especially at some angles and in certain lighting. It would be different if Sandrock were to be some hyper-realistic, real world type game, but neither Portia, nor Sandrock as you are billing it, are meant to be that type of game. I don't want it in the games I use to relax and de-stress. My life and my job are stressful enough-I have bags and stress and all the visible signs of overworked/underpaid working-poor every single day of my life. I get some people really, really want a lot of realism in this type of game, but there are many of us who use this as an escape. That's more a penalty on the player, having to look at it, than a penalty on the character, like stamina drain is. Dystopian farming takes a unique spin in My Time at Sandrock, the sequel to My Time at Portia, offering an extensive character customization process. Just pass out on the second night in a row at whatever hour being up.īut if nothing else, no eye bags. My Time at Sandrock, the sequel to My Time at Portia, introduces a complex character creator with unique and diverse customization options. IRL most people don't pass out from pulling a single all nighter but certainly do have less energy from it. A choice might be an option though, you can pass out now and wake up at home with however much stamina, or choose to stay up and accept the penalties of lost stamina and faster draining stamina. I know some use pass out as an emergency way to get home when stuck rather than loose the whole day's progress, though that doesn't seem to be intended game design. There could easily be other penalties like no stamina regen if you don't sleep/sleep to late, maybe makes your stamina drain faster the next day as well. When I'm out running around late, I'll sometimes see NPCs, so kinda sucks I as a player have to pass out when they get to stay up. ![]() I don't really like the passing out mechanic either but am used to it in games so accept it. I don't want to look at that on my character. ![]() If your order arrives at your door damaged, broken or defective, we will either replace the broken parts if possible or ship out a new one at our discretion and at our expense.
