![]() Look at that marbling of fat! (Photo credit: Tracy Chang) Look at the piece above, and then take a look at what REAL toro looks like: This is a real Toro. Shimo offered a Toro that, at best, was decent Maguro, which is unacceptable when you’re charging for Toro. I expect to moan and groan while I eat Toro. Keep in mind that my idea of mediocre, when it comes to sushi, is quite possibly someone else’s idea of excellent - but there’s better sushi to be had in San Francisco. ![]() The other sushi we had all remained within the mediocre level. While I put salt on it while I ate, it doesn’t make up for lack of seasoning during the cooking process. When cooked, this fish should have released all kinds of oils, but it was drier (though cooked correctly) and completely underseasoned it needed way more salt. Healthier, it may be, but good hamachi is highest in fat content. Again, Shimo provided Yellowtail that was lower on the flavor scale, and once cooked, I could also tell that it had a low fat content. When the right piece of Yellowtail that is cooked and seasoned properly, this dish is usually enough to make you forget all of your worries while you’re chowing. We also ordered Hamachi Kama, which is usually referred to as Yellowtail Collar. My friend likes cucumber maki, so we ordered that. Whoever Shimo uses didn’t provide them w/ the quality fish that other sushi restaurants in San Francisco use. It didn’t have the buttery goodness I expect from Yellowtail this is most likely due to the origin and type of Yellowtail (and perhaps the season, too) rather than the restaurant’s issue, but most of the time, this will depend on the source of the fish. The hamachi was good but I found the taste to be lacking. Nicely cooked, I think it could have been infused with more sake, but the quality of the Ankimo was good. See my previous review on Ino Sushi for the best Ankimo I have found to date in San Francisco.Īt Shimo, the Ankimo was pretty good. I like ordering this dish because (1) even when prepared shabbily, it still tastes pretty decent (albeit flavorless) and (2) when prepared perfectly, it seriously might be the best sashimi/nigiri you will ever have. Ankimo is served as sashimi or nigiri, and at Shimo, we opted for the sashimi. This dish is usually served with a ponzu and green onion sauce, but let me tell you - when this dish is prepared well, you need for nothing else. The liver is steamed w/ sake and thoroughly “cooked”. Ankimo, for those of you who do not know, is Monkfish Liver. I’m extremely picky about sushi, and even trying out a new sushi joint, I find that I hesitate because so rarely do I have good things to say about a sushi restaurant.ĭon’t you hate it when you pay good money to eat one of your favorite things and it tastes horrid? Ankimo: Monkfish LiverĪnyway – we sat down and ordered a bottle of sake to share and placed our order. I am all about neighborhood joints, and I figured if there are this many people eating here on a Tuesday night, the least I can expect is fresh fish. ![]() It’s pretty basic but I noticed on this weeknight evening, there were still quite a few patrons there. It’s a quaint little spot in Richmond with a sushi bar in the center, and tables along the opposite wall. and drove a 3 block radius many times before finally finding a spot.īattling the drizzling rain (which I hate), we walked to Shimo Sushi and entered. First off – parking was difficult on this evening. This place had apparently been here awhile, though Bill’s last visit was a few years ago. I chose the cuisine - Japanese, and he chose the place - Shimo Sushi. On a slightly drizzly night, my friend Bill “the BFC” took me out for dinner.

You can put your hand right on the iPad while you write, which, for a long time, was functionality other styluses were not able to accurately replicate. In a nutshell, the Apple Pencil is meant to work like a traditional pencil, but instead of writing on paper, you write on the iPad's display. It's excellent for drawings, art creation, note taking, and similar tasks because it's precise, has palm rejection, and offers pressure and tilt sensitivity. The Apple Pencil is used in lieu of a finger for precision tasks like writing and sketching, and it can also be used for navigating through the operating system. In the original Apple Pencil, there's a Lightning connector, but the second-generation model charges inductively through the iPad Pro. There's a small plastic tip (which can be replaced) that connects with the iPad's display, a pencil-like body to hold onto, and a charging mechanism. It's called the Apple Pencil because of its resemblance to a traditional pencil, albeit with a definitively Apple-esque design. The Apple Pencil is an Apple-designed stylus that works with Apple's iPads. In the guide below, we cover everything you need to know about the Apple Pencil. The Apple Pencil has stuck around since 2015, and as of today, all of Apple's iPads work with either the first or second-generation Apple Pencil. Former Apple CEO Steve Jobs was famously against styluses, but the Apple Pencil has proven to be a useful tool for note taking, sketching, and more with the tablet form factor. Apple in 2015 unveiled the Apple Pencil, its first stylus that was designed to work with the original iPad Pro. ![]() ![]() ![]() Skype also supports group IMs if you like.

Here’s why: 1) The dynamic duo Holmes/Watson is undermined in the film compared to the game. I’m adding to this ongoing discussion about the film by comparing it to my experience of having played the game, and to argue that the film adaptation works to further distance itself from the world of Sherlock Holmes rather than paying an homage to it. Paul Thomas Miller sarcastically refers to Detective Pikachu as “ the most canonical Sherlock ever and definitely not just a pokemon in a hat,” and fellow Sherlockian and author, Brad Keefauver, wrote an insightful blog about how the film can be interpreted as a John Watson story rather than a Sherlock Holmes story. Much has been said about the Holmes-Pikachu collab by Sherlockians and fans of Pokémon alike. Recently, I watched the film adaptation of the game, and although I found it entertaining, I’m still puzzled as to the connection between Detective Pikachu and Sherlock Holmes. However, if you’re not acquainted with the franchise, I’d give it a miss.A few months ago, I wrote a blog that briefly addressed the limitations and potentialities of Detective Pikachu (2016 video game) as an “adaptation” of Sherlock Holmes. If you love Pokémon, go watch it (though I’m sure you already have). ![]() Despite colourful design and a fun performance from Reynolds, the film suffers from a severely underwritten story, with predictable twists at every turn. For me, however, it boasted little for a casual film-goer, which is problematic filmmaking. Overall, fans of the franchise will absolutely love this film, I have no doubt of it. ![]() The final act fight is a straight copy of Shazam!, which in itself was already completely unoriginal, and the whole thing felt like it was made ten years ago by someone who loved Blade Runner and Pokémon so decided to blend the two. In areas, the film totally relies on Henry Jackman’s great score, but even he doesn’t have the skill to make everything exciting. ![]() The characters looked too cartoony to believe, and the big crashy set pieces were unengaging. It was just hilarious to see the beloved actor reel off lines and lines of nonsense with the straightest of faces.įor me, I also found the design to be slightly annoying. The funniest part from my point of view was Bill Nighy’s performance, who’s job it was to deliver buckets of exposition about Pokémon. However, I sat in the audience feeling very lost and this was irritating. Clearly, most of the audience I was with were familiar, and they would laugh or “aww” at even the sight of a Pokémon that I didn’t recognise. The whole film relies on the audience being completely familiar with the Pokémon franchise. The key problem with the film was its alienating handling of the concept. The rest of the cast of live action players include Justice Smith as Tim Goodman, the 21 year old looking for his father Kathryn Newton as Lucy Stevens, the quirky junior reporter who Tim has a crush on and who never gets enough to do Bill Nighy (BILL NIGHY) as a disabled visionary who created a Pokémon City Ken Watanabe (because he appears in every US adaptation of a Japanese franchise) as a Detective who has even less to do than Lucy, and Rita Ora playing a scientist in this year’s most ridiculous deal between a movie studio and a record label. Though it felt jarring that his voice was coming from a yellow rabbit-like creature, the film does ultimately justify that decision, albeit in a ridiculous way. I personally found his role very entertaining, mainly because it was the only real thing I could feel a connection with in the nauseating sea of the unfamiliar. The cast is led by Ryan Reynolds, who provides the voice and motion capture performance for Pikachu, a Pokémon suffering from amnesia (oh goodie, another amnesia story). As soon as you see a huge actor in a seemingly withdrawn role, it’s obvious who it’ll be. The bad guy, withheld for a while, is also blatantly obvious. The story is very cliché with little originality other than the addition of the creatures and their convenient powers. In a world where ‘Pokémon’ (weird creatures with magic abilities) and humans live together, one man must join forces with Pikachu (a Pokémon who can create electricity) to unravel the disappearance of his father, and the institutional cover up behind it. Perhaps because of that, I was totally unengaged with Detective Pikachu, and found its derivative story and strange concept very difficult to buy into. I am someone who has never before touched the franchise, so I admit I was completely unfamiliar with anything being referenced. Based on the $90billion franchise, Detective Pikachu is the first live action film from Pokémon, the Japanese franchise that has spawned video games, anime series, card games, films and that infamous mobile app. ![]() ![]() Able to perform tasks on various exchanges files.Various file types and models specifically for Revit, Archicad, Rhino, and SketchUp.

In fact, many vehicles advertise a “filled-for-life” transmission – despite the average powertrain warranty only lasting around 5 years/60,000 miles.Ĭonsidering the average age of a car on U.S. ![]() Interestingly, a growing number of modern vehicles do not specify transmission-fluid change intervals in their owner’s manuals. Designed to improve performance and maximize engine power during acceleration, the transmission also offers better fuel efficiency. “The transmission oil does wear out it just takes longer, which is why we often forget about it.” In 2017, Ford introduced a new 10-speed automatic transmission for the F-150. “A transmission is a much more benign environment than an engine, but it still gets hot and there still is wear – metal buildup, degradation, chemical decomposition,” he explains. All that extra shifting means more moving parts, which means more opportunities for friction and wear – hence the need for intelligently-formulated lubrication, says Michael Warholic, Ph.D., Technology Manager at Valvoline. The resulting bump in fuel economy comes at a cost, though. ![]() ( Think of how the versatility of your cooking improves when you have multiple spices in the cabinet – not just salt and pepper to choose from.) Those additional gears (and additional steps between gear ratios) provide the transmission with more flexibility as it constantly works to optimize itself, shifting to find the right gear that will keep the engine running most efficiently. While the four-speed slushbox hung around the American market until 2020, many modern vehicles now sport seven-, eight-, nine-, and even 10-speed automatic transmissions. The automatic transmission is nothing new, but the technology has certainly grown in popularity over the years – and complexity. But perhaps one of the greatest tasks the modern vehicle assumes responsibility for is the same one many automotive enthusiasts feel is most integral to the driving experience: shifting. They brake for unseen pedestrians, correct loose steering on the highway, and even take over the dreaded task of parallel parking on a crowded side street. It highlights a new frontier and the rich multiscale fluid physics, from interfacial to multiphase and complex flows, that govern contact between an infected source and a susceptible target in a range of diseases.The experts at Valvoline help us unpack the role automatic transmission fluid plays in your vehicle’s performance – and why it’s so important to pick the right one.Įvery day, our cars get a little smarter. This review discusses the emergent area of the fluid dynamics of disease transmission. Our mechanistic understanding of how pathogens actually transfer from one host or reservoir to the next remains woefully limited, with the global consequences that we are all experiencing with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
