![]() Injera thus acts simultaneously as food, eating utensil, and plate. The injera under these stews soaks up juices and flavours and, after the stews and salads are finished, is also consumed. The right hand is used to tear small pieces from the injera to use to pick up and eat the stews or salads. In Eritrea and Ethiopia, injera are usually served with one or more stews known as wat or with salads (especially, for instance, during periods of Ethiopian Orthodox fasting) or with other injera ( injera firfir). ![]() Lahoh is a staple in Somalia, Djibouti, and Yemen. These were much different from what are known as pancakes today. The Ancient Romans called their fried concoctions alia dulcia, Latin for "other sweets". The Middle English word pancake appears in English in the 15th century. Athenaeus mentions, in his Deipnosophistae, staititas topped with honey, sesame, and cheese. Another kind of pancake was σταιτίτης ( staititēs), from σταίτινος ( staitinos), "of flour or dough of spelt", derived from σταῖς ( stais), "flour of spelt". Tagenites were made with wheat flour, olive oil, honey, and curdled milk, and were served for breakfast. The earliest attested references to tagenias are in the works of the 5th-century BC poets Cratinus and Magnes. In Britain and the Commonwealth, they are associated with Shrove Tuesday, commonly known as "Pancake Day", when, historically, perishable ingredients had to be used up before the fasting period of Lent. In North America, they are typically considered a breakfast food and serve a similar function to waffles. Pancakes may be served at any time of the day or year with a variety of toppings or fillings, but they have developed associations with particular times and toppings in different regions. When potato is used as a major portion of the batter, the result is a potato pancake. ![]() Buckwheat flour can be used in a pancake batter, making for a type of buckwheat pancake, a category that includes blini, kaletez, ploye, and memil-buchimgae. When buttermilk is used in place of or in addition to milk, the pancake develops a tart flavor and becomes known as a buttermilk pancake, which is common in Scotland and the US. Like waffles, commercially prepared frozen pancakes are available from companies like Eggo. A well-known variation originating from southeast Europe is a palačinke, a thin moist pancake fried on both sides and filled with jam, cream cheese, chocolate, or ground walnuts, but many other fillings-sweet or savoury-can also be used.Ĭommercially prepared pancake mixes are available in some countries. A crêpe is a thin Breton pancake of French origin cooked on one or both sides in a special pan or crepe maker to achieve a lacelike network of fine bubbles. In North America, a leavening agent is used (typically baking powder) creating a thick fluffy pancake. In the United Kingdom, pancakes are often unleavened and resemble a crêpe. The pancake's shape and structure varies worldwide. Archaeological evidence suggests that pancakes were probably eaten in prehistoric societies. Will you be eating all the pancakes you want on National Pancake Day? Let us know in the comments! – Rappler.A pancake (or hotcake, griddlecake, or flapjack) is a flat cake, often thin and round, prepared from a starch-based batter that may contain eggs, milk and butter and cooked on a hot surface such as a griddle or frying pan, often frying with oil or butter. In the past decade, the celebration has raised $20 million for children’s health charities. Last year, IHOP partnered with Kythe for National Pancake Day as well, and raised P400,000 for the organization.Ģ015 was the first year that IHOP Philippines celebrated National Pancake Day, but it’s actually an IHOP tradition that started in 1995 in the States. P200 from each P250 payment will go to the Kythe Foundation, a non-profit organization that delivers psychosocial care to children with cancer and other chronic illnesses. This isn’t all for the sake of eating pancakes, though. The promo is available at all 6 IHOP Philippines branches: Bonifacio Global City, UP Town Center, Century Mall, SM Mall of Asia, Araneta Center, Filinvest City, and Fairview Terraces. You can order as many stacks of two (originally P145) or 4 (originally P245) as you want from 7 am to 10 pm on that day, and douse them in your choice of the syrups they offer – Old Fashioned, Strawberry, Butter Pecan, or Blueberry. If you answered yes, then we’ve got good news – IHOP Philippines is celebrating National Pancake Day on March 8 by selling an unlimited amount of their buttermilk pancakes for P250. MANILA, Philippines – Are you up for eating all the pancakes you want for a day? ![]() ![]() I'd like to achieve the same task: convert an RTSP H264 encoded stream to a fragmented MP4 stream. Pansy is a messenger of clarity and empathy and was used in the Victorian era as a flower of courting.Let's consider this very nice and easy to use remux sample by horgh. There is a special affinity between this name and the Pansy flower, which is considered a symbol of wisdom and yearning. To have the Bee as a totem animal, it means that one dreams about great aspirations and has the determination to make them come true. At its core, the Bee symbolism encourages one to think about their community as well. The Bee spirit animal stands for adaptability and productivity. Keeping a Tourmaline stone close makes one more courageous and confident in their life choices. This is a jewel that summons relief from stress and bans feeling overwhelmed. The Tourmaline is the auspicious gemstone for those named Remux. The energy contained within the month of January stimulates the capacity to deal with everyday pressures. It is the time for starting to put in practice the New Year resolutions. Symbolically, January appears to focus on captivity and new beginnings. On a Tuesday, it is desirable to clean out clutter from one's life and deal with any outstanding tasks. Tuesday, which inspires achievement and competition, is the lucky day for people with this name. This name is considered luckier for people born in an odd year. Include more of the color Gold in your life if you crave a meaningful change.Ĩ, 9, 20, 26 and 40 are the lucky numbers for this name. Gold, a color expressing radiance and flexibility, is associated with personalities that could be the definition of go-getting as they don't sit around waiting for things to happen. The emotional energy of the name Remux is associated with the Acceptance level on the emotional vibration scale. This name tends to draw in people who have a high opinion of hope and dependability, also, one should steer clear of secretive and nosy people. The letter X at the end of a name portrays someone with a great sense of purpose but whose addictive character may mean that the wonderful achievements that they are capable of, can be at risk of non-completion. The Capstone letter, the one that ends a name, offers a clue about a person's capacity to recognize the accomplishments their efforts brought them to and how facile or not it is for them to bring things to completion. ![]() Somewhat extreme and passionate, the character of those whose first letter of the name is R will not leave any occasion for doubts or suspicions to creep in when something new takes place. The capital letter at the beginning of a name, called the Cornerstone by Numerologists, puts forward an insight into how someone tackles situations and how they establish new activities and rules. The number 9's spirit can be conquered by love eventually, and as soon as this occurs, they will try to get everyone to feel what they feel. This is someone who is not really fixated on a partner with the same interests, but does want someone who can keep surprising them. When in love, the number 9 will have their moral principles take priority, so, despite their adventurous and charming attitude, they are deeply serious. The purpose hiding behind the number 9 is to coach their peers to be themselves and to stand up for their beliefs. Demonstrating a positive approach to most things in life, the number 9 is very resolute and doesn't seem to surrender easily. The 9's force reflects faithfulness and optimism, a type of wisdom that only comes with experience.

I thought it was about his "inner feminine" and breaking free of masculine bonds, but then it was just too apparent that it was more about him actually feeling feminine (like a woman) inside. The fire-breather expresses and symbolizes the lyrics of "hey child stay wilder than the wind and blow me in." The fire breather is the wild part of him (the part that wants to expose himself) that combined with the elderly couple is a foreshadowing of the future he would have staying married and denying a part of his life. ![]() The older couple that is shown sitting on a bench and then driving and then a fire breather breathes fire into the car - remember that scene? That is reflective of the inauthenticity of living one's entire life in a lie. The wife blends up a smoothie with vodka, to deny what is really happening in her marriage. She is there to express the hidden truth. The little girl comes into the room and hides under the bed with a sad/worried look on her face. The woman he indeed may love - reflects his deep knowing of what he really is and what he really wants to be. Yes, in the beginning of the video he is having sex with a woman in the bed. Remember the scene where the hammer smashed a barbie and football - those are symbols of gendered identities. The guy is a tranny!! He feels like a woman trapped in a man's body. I can't believe nobody discusses the guy (husband) in the video taking of his 3-piece suit to expose lingerie underneath and then putting on lipstick!!! It couldn't be more symbolic that the woman in the water is really his "inner female" wanting to 'come undone' and break free. It's obvious to me this song combined with the official video is about breaking gender barriers. They are lost in love together, and they will face any problems they have in the future together.

However, he liked the use of instrument instead of synthesizer, and proposed Musical Instrument Digital Interface (MIDI). : 20 Kakehashi favored the name Universal Musical Interface (UMI), pronounced you-me, but Smith felt this was "a little corny". : 4 The standard was discussed and modified by representatives of Roland, Yamaha, Korg, Kawai, and Sequential Circuits. Smith and Wood proposed this standard in a paper, Universal Synthesizer Interface, at the Audio Engineering Society show in October 1981. ![]() Using Roland's DCB as a basis, Smith and Sequential Circuits engineer Chet Wood devised a universal interface to allow communication between equipment from different manufacturers. ĭave Smith (right), one of the creators of MIDI Initially, only Sequential Circuits and the Japanese companies were interested. ![]() Representatives from all companies met to discuss the idea in October. While Smith discussed the concept with American companies, Kakehashi discussed it with Japanese companies Yamaha, Korg and Kawai. Kakehashi felt the Oberheim System was too cumbersome, and spoke to president Dave Smith, the president of Sequential Circuits, about creating a simpler, cheaper alternative. In June 1981, he proposed developing a standard to the Oberheim Electronics founder Tom Oberheim, who had developed his own proprietary interface, the Oberheim System. Ikutaro Kakehashi, the president of Roland, felt the lack of standardization was limiting the growth of the electronic music industry. Manufacturers had their own proprietary standards to synchronize instruments, such as CV/gate, DIN sync and Digital Control Bus (DCB). In the early 1980s, there was no standardized means of synchronizing electronic musical instruments manufactured by different companies. In 2016, the MMA established The MIDI Association (TMA) to support a global community of people who work, play, or create with MIDI. All official MIDI standards are jointly developed and published by the MMA in Los Angeles, and the MIDI Committee of the Association of Musical Electronics Industry (AMEI) in Tokyo. MIDI technology was standardized in 1983 by a panel of music industry representatives, and is maintained by the MIDI Manufacturers Association (MMA). With MIDI, any MIDI-compatible keyboard (or other controller device) can be connected to any other MIDI-compatible sequencer, sound module, drum machine, synthesizer, or computer, even if they are made by different manufacturers. This meant that a musician could not, for example, plug a Roland keyboard into a Yamaha synthesizer module. : 4 A MIDI recording of a performance on a keyboard could sound like a piano or other keyboard instrument however, since MIDI records the messages and information about their notes and not the specific sounds, this recording could be changed to many other sounds, ranging from synthesized or sampled guitar or flute to full orchestra.īefore the development of MIDI, electronic musical instruments from different manufacturers could generally not communicate with each other. Advantages of MIDI include small file size, ease of modification and manipulation and a wide choice of electronic instruments and synthesizer or digitally sampled sounds. Ī file format that stores and exchanges the data is also defined. MIDI data can be transferred via MIDI or USB cable, or recorded to a sequencer or digital audio workstation to be edited or played back. One common MIDI application is to play a MIDI keyboard or other controller and use it to trigger a digital sound module (which contains synthesized musical sounds) to generate sounds, which the audience hears produced by a keyboard amplifier. Each interaction with a key, button, knob or slider is converted into a MIDI event, which specifies musical instructions, such as a note's pitch, timing and loudness. Ī single MIDI cable can carry up to sixteen channels of MIDI data, each of which can be routed to a separate device. MIDI ( / ˈ m ɪ d i/ Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a technical standard that describes a communications protocol, digital interface, and electrical connectors that connect a wide variety of electronic musical instruments, computers, and related audio devices for playing, editing, and recording music. This system fits into a single rack case, but before the advent of MIDI, it would have required four separate full-size keyboard instruments, plus outboard mixing and effects units. Using MIDI, a single controller (often a musical keyboard, as pictured here) can play multiple electronic instruments, which increases the portability and flexibility of stage setups. |
