The Bed-Stuy Tattooing Co., 208 Malcolm X Blvd., Brooklyn (From $700.) “I don’t trust anyone else to do that kind of work and actually make it perfect, so I followed her from shop to shop until she finally opened her own studio.” Each of the 13 artists who work at Atelier Eva, which debuted in Williamsburg in 2020, have their own specialty, including Jason Lu, a black-and-gray expert Dani, who does florals with the finest lines and new addition Hailey Kim, who is capable of rendering flowers and food as small as half an inch across in exact detail. “Since then, I’ve been tattooed by her in five different places, all fine-art re-creations,” including another Parrish and Paul de Longpré’s Study of Roses.

You want Eva.’ ” Eva turned out to be Eva Karabudak, a multidisciplinary artist from Turkey with a background in oil painting and figure drawing. When he showed up at Bang Bang, a downtown shop run by celebrity tattooer Keith “Bang Bang” McCurdy, with this concept in hand, “the dude at the front desk was like, ‘You don’t want to do that with the person you have an appointment with. Ross Chestnut knew exactly what tattoo he wanted: a highly detailed reproduction of the Maxfield Parrish painting Stars.

Their tattoo bedside manner is unmatched.” Carson Jordan, a poet, says Garcia’s flexibility carries over to the design itself - they are willing to take on any project, no matter how far out of their comfort zone. “Then I asked them to move it to multiple different spots on my body. “Angel was willing to make a new stencil for the pansy an eighth of an inch smaller to see if I liked it at that size better,” Dunleavy says.

![]() ![]() Castles provide the basis for more developed construction in the game, with players having to upgrade to the next castle level to be able to build more advanced buildings upgrades such as a curtain wall and guard towers can be added to individual castles. There is no specific technology research, but several advances, such as gunpowder, do become available over time. Income to develop provinces and armies comes from taxation of the provinces and trade with neighbouring provinces. Production can occur in every province, with the player building from one of the hundreds of connected buildings and units in the game's technology tree. The game is set mainly in Europe, but also features the Middle East and North Africa. The campaign is carried out in a similar fashion to Shogun: Total War, but features many enhancements. The campaign mode is turn-based, with each turn representing one year, allowing the player to attend to all needs of the faction before allowing the artificial intelligence to carry out the other factions' moves and decisions. Another campaign mode is available, called 'Glorious Achievements', in which each faction has several historically-based goals to achieve, which score points the faction with the most achievement points wins the game. Religion is very important in the game, with the player able to convert provinces to their own religions to cement the people's loyalty. Diplomacy and economics are two other aspects the player can use to advance their aims, as well as having access to more clandestine means such as espionage and assassination. In the campaign, the player controls construction, unit recruitment and the movement of armies, fleets and agents in each of these provinces, using these means to acquire and defend the provinces. Each of the factions controls a number of historical provinces, which on the map contain a castle and, if located by the sea, a port as well. The main campaign of Medieval: Total War involves the player choosing one of the fourteen playable factions and eventually leading them in conquest on the strategy map. ![]() ![]() It is simple to just pick it up and place it right back into place. Done! It is really not that hard and since no mortar or special tools are needed – the only cost is for the stones and pea gravel.įrom time to time I have noticed a top flat stone has moved. If you are not making a full circle wall and will have open ends in your wall – you can step-stone them so they end in the grass or you can butt the ends of the stones right against a sidewalk or building. When you reach the wall height you want, choose the nicest and flattest stones for the top of the wall. If you want to make sure the wall is level, you can use a bubble level to check.

If the grade of the trench is on a slope, you can fill the lower areas with more of the small stone or crushed stone to level the inside the trench to create a level surface to start stacking the stones. (I have only used pea gravel on one wall I built.) Optional: Lay a 1-inch thick layer of pea gravel or small stones in trench – smooth it with the back side of a shovel to level. Note: When building this type of dry laid wall, I have found that creating a taller wall, you will need to dig your trench deeper so the wall has a good solid foundation. Doing this is needed to ensure the stability of the wall. You want it to be wide enough so two stones will fit side by side and about 4 – 6 inches in depth.

The Ambient Mode filters audio through as if you’re not wearing them at all. To my ears, the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds suppress more effectively. Though Sony claims the XM4’s noise cancellation is industry leading – I wouldn’t agree. Noise cancellation is an improvement on previous earbuds, the WF-1000XM4 stifles sounds with more skill. With three charges supplied by the case, max battery life is 36 hours, four better than WF-1000XM3. Otherwise, the WF-1000XM4 pack more hours per charge – from 6 to 8, and with noise cancelling off, battery life is quoted at 12 hours. ![]() With noise cancelling on, the number quoted matches the XM3 – 24 – but the charging case is smaller (40% less volume), so XM4s offer the same amount of stamina from a smaller case. It integrates noise cancelling processing and Bluetooth SoC (System on Chip), producing efficiencies across the feature set. The XM4 siblings no longer share a processor between them like the XM3s did, the WF-1000XM4 featuring Sony’s V1 processor. The packaging for the earbuds has also been revamped reduced in size and made from sustainable sources. Where previous cases were chunky, the WF-1000XM4’s case is petite and pocketable, making them more convenient for transport. The charging case has been reduced in size and is all the better for it. You must choose between the three options (one for each side), which means you will have to fish your smartphone got one of those actions – a slight inconvenience. Which function is assigned to which earbud can be configured in the Headphones app. The controls are responsive, with a range of options that includes activating noise cancelling/ambient sound/Quick Attention, playback (a combination of taps for play/pause, skipping and a long press for voice assistance), and volume control. The rubbery aspect provides a tactile sense of interaction, and like the PI7, the effect is subtle but enhances the connection between you and earbuds. I do like what Sony has done with the ‘feel’ of the touch control area. The matte black (or platinum silver) finish is not as alluring as previous models, though the gold accents, especially on the external microphone, do make them distinctive. You can swap sizes for each ear (they’re colour coded) for a better fit. You could source other ear-tips, but Sony says that could affect the strength of noise isolating design. With small and large options alongside default medium, the ear-tips feature little bubbles that dissipate noise, and mould themselves to the contours of the ear for a tighter fit. The fit is helped by Sony’s new polyurethane noise isolation ear-tips. If anything, the longer I wore them, the more comfortable they became. I find there is a settling in period though but once that passes, they feel fine. Would I recommend them for workouts? I’ve not taken them for a run, but potentially yes, the IPX4 rating protects them against some sweat and rain, and unlike their predecessor these earbuds don’t require pushes after the fact to keep them seated. Once the right position has been found, they stay planted. The more ergonomic shape fits the contours of the ear better, making the XM4 feel more stable than the XM3. The WF-1000XM4 are Sony’s best true wireless pair yet, but given the increase in competition and quality – are they the best true wireless earbuds? DesignĪesthetically, the WF-1000XM4 have undergone a big change from the WF-1000XM3 they’re more compact – 10% less volume – and the result is the earbuds sit within the ear than bulge out. The WF-1000XM4’s entry marks a moment where the true wireless market is booming, earphones pushing against their full-sized counterparts for features, and sound reaching ever higher levels of quality. The WF-1000XM3 came two years later and at time where true wireless was beginning to fulfil more of its potential. Sony’s first effort arrived with the WF-1000X in 2017, which divorced themselves from the safety-first approach of first-gen efforts and placed sound quality at the forefront. The true wireless market sprung into life in 2016, and arguably no-brand has channelled its potential as much as Sony. ![]() ![]() You can use sour cream, but keep in mind not to boil the gravy anymore or it will curdle on you, which creme fraiche wont. ![]() A final touch of a little red currant jelly (for sweetness) and creme fraiche round out this fantastic sauce. German gravy is fairly thin and never gloppy like many American gravies tend to be. My gravy, which is just the way my family cooks it, is achieved by caramelizing sugar in a pan with butter, flour is added and finally some of the cooked marinade and red wine round out the gravy. We also don't add rasisins to the finished gravy, this is more of a rhineland addition. Many people know Sauerbraten with a thickened gravy containing gingersnaps, this is NOT the way it is prepared in the region of Franconia (upper Bavaria) where I grew up. After the meat is fully cooked you get to work on the gravy. The marinade, along with the seasonings and vegetables is added to the meat, which is then cooked for a couple of hours on the stove top. After the meat is removed and dried off, it will get a good searing on all sides in a heavy pot. Most people will keep the meat in the brine for 3 to 4 days, but I've even heard of people leaving the meat in for a full week. The cut of meat is usually a tougher cut, like a bottom round roast and by marinading the meat in something acidic for several days the notion is it will help tenderize the meat. Sauerbraten simply refers to a beef roast that has been marinaded in a brine of vinegar, spices, root vegetables and red wine for a few days. Mine is simply a family recipe which might not be "authentic" by other German standards, but is a special recipe handed down from my dad to me. Let me preface by saying that different regions in Germany will produce different recipes for this. I promise to showcase all of the recipes, but today I'm concentrating on the Sauerbraten. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Some of the matching tiles are going to be stacked upon each other. That's why it’s of greater importance to recognize the locks. Even if you reshuffle, sometimes you won't be able to match tiles. For example, eliminating only the top tiles is not a good idea because the other tiles will remain covered, and you can lose the game. The strategy while playing is to remove matching tiles while opening new possibilities to match. This game requires thinking, concentration, and planning. Any of those combinations will be accepted as a pair because there is only one of each. When you are playing, the only suit tiles that don't need to be matched are the Flowers and Seasons. In Mahjong, just like with playing cards, the tiles have suits: Character, Dot, Season, Dragon, Wind, and Flower. Also, you shouldn't have any other tile covering them. The tiles that you can pair need to be open from the left or right. If there are no more moves left, in some versions, you can reshuffle the tiles, often a maximum of 5 times per game. ![]() Only the tiles you can see can be paired, which means that first you need to pair the visible ones on the top and sides. The game's goal is to remove the tiles from the playing area by matching identical tiles.
