I don’t think I want to do the whole, sign to a major label, go super pop with everything, and they made it seem like that’s not something they’re going to pressure me to do. They’re really music-minded people, and the deals they offer are super artist-friendly. When they said, “We don’t just care about this song, we really like what you’re doing with the project,” that was the one group of people that I could fully trust on that.įor Columbia, my manager and I were really impressed with the people there. But we’ve actually been talking to Disruptor for over a year now. And then my manager was like, “Hey man, we’ve got five calls today, five calls tomorrow and six calls the next day.” It was pretty intense. The TikTok stuff started happening and then the streaming numbers started going up a lot. What was that process like? Why is this the right home for you? You signed a record deal with Disruptor/Columbia in September. It’s the fact that it’s just a really good song. I think people give me way too much credit for doing cool production because it’s not the production that gets people dancing to it or makes people really like it. Songwriting will always be the main driving force behind how much anybody likes a song. Why is it important to you that fans are listening to Rae’s original version, too? It was really nice to just have fun producing something. ![]() The majority of the people in the world that know anything about me are going to only know these lyrics about me, and that’s just really heavy. It’s hard for me to have a lot of fun working on music these days because there is all the pressure of these words that I’m going to sing right now are going to be there forever. Working on my own music is definitely edifying and therapeutic, but it’s intense. How does your process for recording a cover compare to creating original music? I was seeing it as a fun side thing that I could put out in between albums. I wasn’t at all expecting anything that happened from it to happen. But working on that song, I was like, “This is a really well-written song, objectively.” That part of me wanted to remind people about it. I went through a pretty intense pretentious indie kid phase, where I had zero appreciation for pop music. It’s also just such a good song, obviously. It has always been the epitome of a joyful, hopeful song for me. It reminded me of writing in the back of my mom’s minivan and a much simpler time. My mom really loves that song - around when it came out, she’d play it all the time. You know the songs that you just have memorized your whole life? It was totally one of those songs for me. What is it about “Put Your Records On” that made you want to cover it? I was working on it over a couple of weeks, and I finished it at the beginning of April. ![]() ![]() It was like how I used to put out music: work on something, finish it and then just throw it up on the internet. So, I was like, let’s switch it up and do something super happy because it felt like that could be therapeutic for me. I came back to my parents’ house, and I wanted to be productive, but working on something heavier just seemed like too much sadness at the time. I was set to open on tour for Dayglow - we actually played two shows in Chicago and then the rest got canceled. You released “Put Your Records On” in late April. I’m still just a kid messing around in Logic in a lot of ways. Because it’s just a ton of experimentation right now. I think might be something to save for when I know what I want to do more. But with most of the songs being super personal to me, it has always been really important that it sounds like me. ![]() I’ve thought about that a lot and there are definitely pluses - I’m not great at guitar or drums. Though it’s now your solo project, Ritt Momney used to be a larger recording band. Below, Rutter talks about why he wanted to cover Rae’s song in particular, his recent record deal with Disruptor/Columbia and what he wants to discuss with the project’s namesake, Sen. ![]() ![]() ![]() In 1868 New Zealand (at that time a British colony) employed a standardized time to be used throughout the colony. Over 98% of Britain’s clocks were kept using GMT by 1855, but it didn’t become legally implemented until 1880. On December 1st, 1847 standard time was officially adopted by British railways in the form of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) which they kept accurate using portable chronometers. The issue was far more prevalent when rail transport and telecommunications became more widespread. Every degree of longitude brought with it four minutes of variation.Īs a result of these variations of time based on geological location, it became apparent that we needed a universal way to offset the time in each location to account for these changes in the time of day. Geological longitude made telling time much more difficult when rail transport became prevalent. Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) was created in 1675 at the time of the Royal Observatory’s construction, to help mariners find their longitude when they were out at sea. Sundials and the like were used to tell what time of day it was. Before transportation became readily available, the time of day was derived from the apparent solar time. Some locations do have offsets of 30 or 45 minutes such as Nepal and Newfoundland, but for the most part they are all whole hours away from UTC. The concept of a time offset refers to the amount of time added to, or subtracted from UTC which results in that location’s “civil time.”ĭepending on the zone, people will observe this standard time all year long, or they will observe Daylight Saving Time, also known as Summer Time in other parts of the world. For the most part, these zones are offset from Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) by whole numbers of hours either positive or negative in regards to the starting point. Time zones were originally created as a means of creating a uniform standard time for legal, commercial, and social purposes.Īreas that are close in terms of commercial dependence or constant communication are usually located in the same time zone. Plainly speaking, time zones are geographical regions where generally everyone uses the same standard time. It is commonly referred to in military time with the letter “U” representing the time zone. In this designation the offset is eight hour behind UTC. This military time zone is used for aviation and refers to a stretch of sea between 127.5 degrees West and 112.5 degrees West. This time zone is also 8 hours behind UTC but is used exclusively by certain pacific islands which are listed below: The Aleutian Islands west of 169.30 West longitude are the one exception. During this time the offset is 8 hours behind Universal Coordinated Time and therefore falls into the same offset as PST. This zone is used in the state of Alaska during the summer time as a form of Daylight Saving Time. Below are time zones in the same offset with different names: ![]() This state observes both PST and PDT like the other locations on this list. There is one Mexican state that falls into this zone and that’s Baja California Norte. British Columbia - excluding these eastern communities: Cranbrook, Golden, Invermere, which are in the MST/MDT zone.The following are Canadian provinces and territories that use PST in winter and PDT in the summer: Oregon - Except the majority of Malheur County.Idaho - specifically the following counties: Benewah, Boner, Boundary, Clearwater, Kootenai, Latah, Lewis, Nez Perce, Shoshone, Northern Idaho.Let us begin with United States locations that observe PST in the winter and PDT in the summer: ![]() ![]() Instead, look for a pair with molded foam, rubber, or cork soles. It's also naturally breathable with anti-fungal properties, so it's less likely to harbor odors.Īlso worth noting: "A very hard sole is not ideal, as this does not allow the foot to adapt to the walking surface," adds Yau. Genuine leather is easier to break in than other materials, meaning it softens over time and conforms to the shape of your foot. "Try to pick high-quality leather heels if possible," says Yau. Some footwear materials are more comfortable than others. Otherwise, look for a wide toe box with plenty of wiggle room. "This reduces pressure on the toes and nails, preventing damage and pain," explains Yau. "Platforms are even better, as they have less foot tilt, meaning less pressure on the front of the foot when walking and greater stability," says Yau.Īn open-toe style is ideal as long as it's appropriate for the occasion. Beyond that, a thick block heel will help keep you steady on your feet. Most importantly, Yau says built-in arch support will prevent your arches from collapsing, which can lead to foot pain.

But the comfy design doesn't stop there. Per Yau's recommendation, the Un Cosmo Pump has a thick 2-inch heel. When it comes to comfortable heels, Clarks is a tried-and-true brand you can rely on.

Other VPN providers (Freemiums) only allow you to choose one, which they assign in the first place. ![]() In our opinion, offering 10 servers in its free version is a good thing. It’s very clear what the best choice here is. Take a look at the huge difference below: Pro With the free version of Windscribe, you do get equal access to 10 of the 60 countries on offer. Most VPN providers have servers in the US and the UK, where they simply fake the location with false “IP WHOIS data” to make it appear as if it’s elsewhere.Īs you can see, the higher server count is limited to the premium plan.

Treatment: If it's clear that irritation is causing your cat's symptoms and they're willing to allow it, try rinsing out their eyes with an eye-wash solution.Signs and symptoms: Watch for signs of discomfort such as squinting or rubbing, as well as redness and discharge.Just about anything that gets in your cat's eye can cause an irritated reaction. Causes: For cats, eye irritants can include strong fragrances, such as perfume, cleaning chemicals, tobacco smoke and dust.While cats don't generally suffer from the type of allergies that result in itchy, watery eyes, irritants in their environment can produce a similar effect. Severe infections might be treated with topical ointments or eye drops, and possibly also systemic antibiotics. For mild infections, it's not uncommon to focus on treating the symptoms by providing rest, keeping the eyes clear of discharge, and providing a healthy diet and plenty of hydration. Treatment: Typically, your vet will treat the underlying infection that's causing the eye discomfort.Other symptoms include redness and swelling, eye discharge, as well as sneezing and nasal discharge. Signs and symptoms: Rubbing and squinting are common signs that your cat might have an eye infection.Causes: Eye infections can be caused by a number of culprits, including bacteria, viral infections, fungi and parasites.Whether or not eye infections are contagious depends on the underlying cause of the infection. They're often the result of an upper respiratory infection that spreads to the eyes. Other eye infections are common ailment in cats. If this is determined to be the cause, your veterinarian may prescribe further treatments to control this virus and prevent further flare-ups.Ĭonjunctivitis is not the only eye infection your cat can experience. One type of infection that often results in this eye disorder is FHV-1, or Feline Herpes Virus. If an upper respiratory illness is present, your vet may treat that as well. Treatment: Typically, conjunctivitis is treated with topical antibiotics in the form of drops or ointment.Other signs of upper respiratory illness, such as sneezing or nasal discharge, might also be present. The inside of the eye may appear swollen and/or reddened, and either one or both eyes may be affected. Eye discharge might be clear or be gray, yellow, green or even a dark, rusty red color. Signs and symptoms: The most telling symptom is runny eyes.Causes: Conjunctivitis typically results from an upper respiratory illness caused by either a virus or a bacterial infection, says Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine.As with pink eye in humans, this condition is highly contagious, although the feline version can only be passed between cats. ![]() ConjunctivitisĪlso known as "pink eye," conjunctivitis occurs when the mucous membrane that lines both the outside of the eyeball and the inside of the eyelid becomes inflamed.

The two shouldn’t be loose, they should fit very well. Insert the first tube into the second one. Make sure they do fit very well to ensure that the tubes are holding the glasses tightly enough. Fit the first magnifying glass tube to the second one. Remember that magnifying glasses are not in the same sizes too. Make sure that the tubes you created aren’t the same size. This time, you need to glue the tubes the same way as how you glued the paper. You have made the two magnifying glass tubes and some part of them remains uncut. Make sure there is no other part of the paper touched by glue or you will get a crappy telescope as a result. Do the same to the edges of the paper as well. First, glue the paper around the two magnifying glasses. You need to give some space for the glue to work. This is the reason why you left some part of the tube and paper uncut. ![]() Leave about an inch of tube behind the smaller magnifying glass for the glue. The bigger one should be placed at the front and the smaller one is at the back of it. When the cutting of the slot for the two magnifying glasses is done, place them now in their slots. This time, you should have a corrugated paper in two lengths in which one is slightly larger than the other. Make sure the magnifying glass fits accurately into the slot and is capable of holding the glass throughout the project. Cut the same way as what you did when cutting the first slot. It should have the same distance from the first slot. Step 5 – Cut down the Marked Line (Second glass)Ĭut down the second slot in the tube for the second magnifying glass. The slot should be able to hold the large magnifying glass so don’t cut the slot of the tube all the way. To do this, cut a slot in the cardboard tube near the front opening. To make it clearer, place the second magnifying glass, the smaller one, between your eye and the bigger glass. Notice that, at first, you can see things blurry.
