It also stops the crack from moving upwards. This hole is handy to use as an opening for medication to prevent bacterial infection. Smaller cracks are often opened at the bottom to allow air to kill the bacteria if necessary, and sometimes a hole or notch stops the upward movement of a crack. Often, your farrier will support your horse’s hoof with bar shoes, acrylic patches, or a change in angles, done with radiographs from the veterinarian. Large cracks are often glued or sutured or stapled together. Vertical cracks need time and support to grow out.This seedy toe condition can cause such damage that your horse’s hoof wall must be resected (essentially removed) to clear the infection. It’s best to catch these cracks early so that the crack can be stopped from traveling up the hoof, and the bacterial infection inside can be treated. ![]() Anaerobic bacteria love places without oxygen, so this infection can travel all the way up the hoof wall.
![]() ![]() Walker has big screen presence or he’d have been lost. Howlin’ Wolf sings one song and has a scene to give Waters a tongue-lashing for not being responsible with his money. (He didn’t sound like that on ‘ER’.) His strong, controlling character is mostly used to juxtapose Water’s inability to control his world. Dakarai on ‘ER’) to play Howlin’ Wolf another big guy with the deepest voice I’ve ever heard. Little Walter had a huge temper, anger management issues, and terrible dependence on drugs and alcohol. People actually made a huge living that way back then. And you will understand quickly that the movie’s name, “Cadillac Records”, comes from Chess buying all his musicians (and himself) Cadillac cars.Ĭolumbus Short (‘Stomp The Yard’/’Quarantine’) plays Little Walter who was an amazing “harp” (harmonica) player. Emmanuelle Chriqui plays Chess’s wife, Revetta. and Chess’s generous management of his ‘family’. But the story always revolves primarily around Water’s and his long-suffering wife Geneva (Gabrielle Union – who always seems too smart to be believable as a woman who’d stay home and collect her man’s illegitimate kids). Little by little, the two find and add more and more talent to the ‘Chess Family’. When he hires Water’s to make his first demo record, the rest becomes history… literally.įrom there, the movie follows both men as they marry and become successful. He was doing OK until a guy Water’s band busts up his club one night. He opens a club (Magamba) at a time when blacks and white didn’t share breathing room. His angry retort is, “My wife will drive a Cadillac!”. So, the movie starts out introducing Leonard being verbally slapped down by the daddy of a childhood girlfriend for not being good enough. Water’s style was guitar reverberation using a metal pick. The real guy had bigger cheeks and small jaw. Waters is played by Jeffrey Wright (Felix in the last 2 Bond films) with a full lower lip that channeled ‘Bubba’ from “Forrest Gump”. His character is the anchor upon which the script hangs the successful launch of Chess Records. Singer Muddy Waters came up from working the fields of Mississippi because he ‘knew’ his music would get him somewhere. Narration of the movie is done by Willie Dixon, one of Chess’s musical finds and played by Cedric the Entertainer - done with more deep, gravelly voicing. The only thing Brody has in common with the original guy is the nose. Adrien Brody got the plum role of Leonard Chess… chains-moking, gravelly voiced, music genius. Until I researched the net for this blog, I didn’t even know there was a Phil. My rating: $8.00 (1.-10.).įirst thing you’ll need to know is Phil isn’t in this movie. This is a pretty sappy retelling of the history, but the music is worth the admission price. Leonard scouted the talent and did the footwork pushing the music with the public. Phil ran their blues club, “Macamba”, on the Southside of Chicago. They were truly genius in predicting what sounds would be successful and which might cross racial divides. As the men worked to establish themselves, they also were learning the musical leanings of 1950’s audiences. ![]() Richard Montgomery (1738-1775), a Revolutionary War hero who led the army into Canada, capturing the city of Montreal he died while attempting to capture Quebec.E-Pilot Evening Edition Home Page Close MenuĬhess records became a label in 1950 when Polish-immigrant brothers Phil and Leonard Chess changed their 1940’s music venture name from the original “Aristocrat”. Kansas Counties Montgomery County, Kansas Date Established: ![]() ![]() ![]() We’ve tested the latest designs by blending smoothies, nut milks, and pancake mixes for breakfast, as well as blitzing fresh, nutrient-dense dips, sauces, and soups for dinner. We were pleased to find that there was no leaking at all.A good blender is flexible enough to make a range of sauces, soups, smoothies, and more-it’s a countertop staple that will come in handy while cooking a range of sweet and savory foods, season after season. Also note that the blending cups don’t feature a pouring lip, since they’re designed to be taken with you, which means the blitzed ingredients often drip down the cup if you choose to decant them.įinally, to test for leakage, we filled the Ninja Personal Blender and Smoothie Maker QB3001 to max capacity and began to blend. We were unable to make mayonnaise in the blender since there’s no way to add ingredients – in this case oil in a slow steady stream – mid-blend, with the blades still spinning. ![]() However, it’s bearable for the short duration the blender would be used. As such, the Ninja Personal Blender and Smoothie Maker QB3001 is one of the loudest blenders we’ve tested. Both tests produced evenly crushed ingredients in fewer than 10 seconds – but our decibel meter hit 102db, which is equivalent to listening to music stored on your smartphone at full volume. We were also impressed by its ability to blitz ice and grind whole hazelnuts. Our decibel meter registered 87.6db during this process, which is the same level of noise as experienced when standing 20 feet away from an automatic car wash when it's running. As such, we continued to blend for a further 20 seconds. Since this blender doesn’t come with any timed presets, we checked on the smoothie’s status after 25 seconds, at which point it was still slightly grainy. ![]() The Personal Blender and Smoothie Maker QB3001 pulverized leafy spinach and fibrous pineapple together with the rest of the smoothie ingredients to create a nicely aerated, grit-free smoothie in 45 seconds. Pushing down on the canister started the blades spinning, while releasing the canister brought the appliance to a halt. Once we’d added the ingredients to the blending cup, we screwed on the blade assembly, and placed the container upside down onto the base. We started by making a banana, pineapple and spinach smoothie. Ingredients can’t be added while blades are spinningĬonsidering the Ninja Personal Blender and Smoothie Maker QB3001 is the least powerful appliance the brand offers, we were impressed at how well it blended everything from fruit and vegetables to nuts.Blends and combines fruit and leafy green with ease.The cups, lids, and blade assembly are all dishwasher-safe, which makes for easy cleaning, plus the blender comes with a booklet containing 10 recipes for inspiration. ![]() You’ll find two spouted lids in the box that can replace the blade assembly once you’ve finished blending, so you can take your drink away with you without having to decant it into another vessel first. It isn’t possible to add ingredients to the cup while the blades are spinning, so the blender struggles to make condiments such as mayonnaise, which require ingredients to emulsify. There’s just one speed setting, and there are no programs that offer a pre-defined blending time. The QB3001 comes with two 16 fl oz / 470ml single-serve cups, and a blade assembly that screws onto the cup once the ingredients have been added. That said, we were impressed by the Personal Blender and Smoothie Maker’s effectiveness when it came to blending fruits and vegetables and pulverizing ice and nuts. Its 700W motor makes it one of the least powerful blending appliances that Ninja offers. It’s lightweight, too, weighing just 2.6lb / 1.2kg, so you’ll have no problems removing it from a cupboard when you want to use it. The Ninja Personal Blender and Smoothie Maker QB3001 is a compact blender that hardly takes up any room on a kitchen countertop, measuring 11.8 x 3.9 x 3.9 inches / 30 x 10 x 10cm. ![]() ![]() ![]() Just right-click on the application from the Dock. ![]() While using an app on Mac, if you face this problem, using Dock is the most common way of force quitting the app. ![]() Now the question arises here that what is the way to force quit Mac app. But Mac users to face the problem of apps getting hanged.

The new tax bracket was introduced by the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which among other things also prevented the expiration of the lowest 10% tax bracket, as well as the 25% - 33% brackets, which were set to expire that year. For tax years 2012 and earlier, the highest tax bracket was 35%. In tax year 2013, a new 39.6% tax bracket was added, currently applicable to income over $578,125.00 for single taxpayers. New tax breaks for business owners, such as the Qualified Business Income Deduction were also introduced. While this overhaul lowered rates, it also eliminated many popular tax breaks such as the Personal Exemption. In December 2017, congress passed a sweeping federal income tax overhaul that affects personal income tax rates from tax year 2018 onward. If you qualify for any tax credits, such as the Earned Income Tax Credit or a Homebuyer's Tax Credit, you will deduct these credits from your total tax owed after calculating your marginal tax rates. When calculating your income tax, it's important to remember that the federal tax brackets apply to your gross adjusted income, after accounting for any tax deductions such as dependant exemptions, business expenses, and any other before-tax deductions.

Head of Household - Head of Household is a special filing status reserved for single individuals who support one or more dependants by themselves.As a result, MFJ brackets are the most tax-advantagous. The width of the first three tax brackets are doubled, and the highest four brackets are expanded (but not doubled) for joint filers. Married Filing Jointly - The Married Filing Jointly tax brackets are applicable to all legally married couples filing their income tax on a joint return.Single - The Single brackets, applicable to all single non-joint filers, have the narrowest bracket width and generally result in the highest individual income tax.These bracket types allow taxpayers filing as Married Filing Jointly or Head of Household to pay less in taxes by widening (doubling, in the case of MFJ) each tax bracket's width. There are four complete sets of tax brackets for different filing types, each with different bracket widths. This will result in lower Federal income taxes for those whose salaries haven't kept pace with inflation. With typical inflation adjustments a mere 1-2%, the 2023 Federal income tax brackets have been adjusted for inflation by as much as 10.5%.
