To defrost, simply remove form the freezer 20-30 minutes before you want to eat them at room temp. You can wrap them individually (preferably in beeswax paper) or just put cut brownies into a sealed container. The first thing is to make sure their container is sealed.Īfter a day or two, however, I’d highly recommend freezing these cakey brownies to keep them fresh. Let’s say you couldn’t eat the whole batch, however, and wanted to keep them fresh. ![]() If you haven’t eaten them all by the next day, you’ll notice they start to dry out, but I can’t imagine you’ll have any left by then! This recipe makes the best brownies the day of baking and the day after. The added pecan halves (you could use any nut by the way) are honestly the hardest part – well, besides waiting for them to cool of course!Īpparently brownie recipes exist in this world without cocoa powder, which I think is just mind boggling! I will say that the cocoa powder gives it a more grown up taste – not so fudgy and sweet (which I also love). ![]() Short of using a box mix, these homemade cakey brownies are as easy as it comes. They’re rich but not too rich, dense but not too dense, and so easy to make (kind of like my Scottish tiffin come to think of it!). So what makes these the best brownies? Well, you have to make them to really know. We were in elementary school and missed the ¼ teaspoon of salt, reading instead ¼ cup of salt! Disgustingly rich went straight disgusting in no time! I’d like to pretend we were ahead of the salted chocolate trend, but you know that’s not true… The best memory about this brownie recipe with cocoa powder, however, was when my friend and I made them on our own. I’m pretty sure the recipe was on page 60 and the pages were stuck together due to extensive reference in our house! The tagline was “these are only for people who’ve been really good recently,” (underline included). ![]() These “Disgustingly Rich Brownies” are a recipe from a cookbook I used as a kid. On Saturday morning I got a craving for these brownies because, well, they really are the best brownies you can make at home and luckily he thought they sounded yummy too! Since baking is a little hard for me this month (I’m not allowed to look down much), easy recipes are my go to. I always love spoiling him with fun baked goodies, but this week has been extra special. Did you ever make “Disgustingly Rich Brownies” growing up? These cakey brownies are still my favorite brownie recipe!

It bears a passing resemblance to the layout of Photoshop circa CS4, but without the tools down the left side. It's the same principle here.Īs the program launches, a window appears with a large preview pane to the left and some features to the right. It's no secret that using a platform such as Windows 98 on a computer from today would be extremely fast because 98 doesn't have all the help files and extra features that were introduced with XP onwards. The more coding that the program has to drag around with it, the slower it becomes. Should you be on the trial, you can always input the key at a later date by clicking on the Help tab in the top left corner of the screen and choosing Buy/Activate Licence.įastRawViewer has a simplistic layout and this is arguably what helps it be so fast. The program comes with a 30 day trial, but if you've bought the product, you can input the licence key and get started. Installation and UseĮven with a painfully slow internet connection, because FastRawViewer is such a small file to download (12.5Mb), it was done in a few minutes. FastRawViewer is available now to download from the LibRaw website and is set at an introductory price from the regular price of $19.99 (£) to $14.99 (£) until January 31st, 2015. Boasting super fast raw viewing, image analysis, editing and tagging as well as full raw conversion, FastRawViewer could prove useful to the photographer on location making "on the fly" adjustments or with impatient clients.

In other words, the "extend" feature is proprietary among Apple products. The Express will only "extend" when it connects to another wireless network that is being provided by another Apple router.

To have MPlayer audio output directed to JACK as its default behavior, edit ~/.mplayer/config and add: Using the 9 and 0 keys, volume can be adjusted between 0 and 400 percent. The startup volume defaults to 100% of software volume and the global mixer levels will remain untouched. To increase the maximum volume to 400%, use softvol=yes and softvol-max=400. With MPlayer, the DVD could be set to a low volume. Set a default audio language by editing ~/.mplayer/config and adding the line alang=en for English. An audio track is selected with -aid audio_id.

As Douglass emphasized, celebrating the July 4th Independence Day while millions of Black Americans were enslaved was the height of hypocrisy. The reason given for this date in an announcement in Frederick Douglass’ Paper, July 1, 1852, is that “ the 4th of July comes on Sunday,” but that was not the only reason. The July 5th date for the event, instead of the 4th, is significant. He provided ample evidence in support of his stance with searing descriptions of the horrors of American slavery, from the internal slave trade to the tyranny of the Fugitive Slave Act. “The Celebration at Corinthian Hall,” Frederick Douglass’ Paper (Rochester, N.Y.), July 9, 1852, p. You can find the full speech printed in Douglass’ own newspaper, Frederick Douglass’ Paper, July 9, 1852, beginning on page 2, six short paragraphs below the title, “ The Celebration at Corinthian Hall.” Following a deferential opening and acknowledgment of the bravery of those who led the country to independence, Douglass pointedly and repeatedly excluded himself and all Black Americans from celebrating that independence. ![]() There is value, though, in reading the entire text. The passages in the extract have been the ones generally quoted over the years. Those excerpts are mainly drawn from the ones Douglass himself chose to include in “ What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?” as an “extract from an oration,” in My Bondage and My Freedom, his second autobiography, published in 1855. His powerful indictment of American slavery and racism, presented to a predominately white abolitionist audience, has resonated for 168 years, including in NPR’s recent video of five young descendants of Douglass reading excerpts from the speech. On July 5, 1852, eminent African American abolitionist Frederick Douglass delivered a brilliant speech to nearly six hundred people filling Rochester, New York’s Corinthian Hall, as organized by the Rochester Ladies’ Anti-Slavery Sewing Society. ![]() Frederick Douglass, engraving in “An Anti-Slavery Album of Contributions from Friends of Freedom, 1834–1858.” Manuscript Division. ![]() I am so excited to continue encouraging others to express themselves, and introduce some game-changing Latinx and women-founded brands through my Glam Bag X," said Becky G. “The idea of self-expression is ageless, and something that I keep in mind when writing new music and when I was creating Treslúce Beauty. ![]() Previous Glam Bag curators include Patrick Ta, Khloe Kardashian, Halsey, Huda Kattan, Addison Rae, Madelaine Petsch, and most recently, Alicia Keys.
