![]() ![]() initially proposed 9, but also by higher-order object categories such as faces 12, 13, although controversies remain 14, 15.įace perception in nonhuman primates has also been intensively studied from the cognitive-neuroscientific and comparative-cognitive perspectives 1, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29. They suggested that the pop-out effect or very efficient searching is caused not only by low-level “features”, as Treisman et al. Hershler and Hochstein clearly demonstrated this phenomenon using various stimuli and experimental conditions 12. In contrast, when a face appears among non-face objects (such as cars, houses, etc.), it is detected without any “effort”. When a search display contains only facial stimuli and observers are required to find a specific face among other faces, researchers often fail to find pop-out effects 11. ![]() Attention to a face can be examined in terms of the presence of “pop-out” or “efficient” searching when using a visual search paradigm 9, 10. For example, when a face is presented abruptly in peripheral vision, our visual attention shifts automatically 6, 7, 8. ![]() This type of processing is most evident for faces, although expertise (long-term intensive experience) on specific object categories also causes a shift in processing from featural to holistic processing 4, 5.įaces also capture our visual attention quickly. This result strongly suggests that humans process faces in a holistic manner. Furthermore, when a first-order spatial configuration among facial features (horizontally arranged eyes and nose and mouth located beneath the eyes) is distorted, face recognition is readily disturbed 3. For example, we are severely hampered 1, 2 when we see upside-down faces. Many studies have shown that faces are processed rather differently from other object categories. Faces convey various kinds of information that are critical for our social lives. The face is quite an important stimulus for humans. This conclusion was supported by a simple simulation experiment using the saliency model. Efficient face detection was hampered by an inverted presentation, suggesting that configural processing of faces is a critical element of efficient face detection in both species. Chimpanzees also detected a photograph of a banana as efficiently as a face, but a further examination clearly indicated that the banana was detected mainly due to a low-level feature (i.e., color). Additional testing showed that a front-view face was more readily detected than a profile, suggesting the important role of eye-to-eye contact. They also found human adult and baby faces-but not monkey faces-efficiently. ![]() This efficient search was not limited to own-species faces. We report that chimpanzees detected chimpanzee faces among non-facial objects quite efficiently. Furthermore, recent studies have shown that humans detect human faces among non-facial objects rapidly. Both species exhibit the face-inversion effect in which the inverted presentation of a face deteriorates their perception and recognition. Recent advances in comparative-cognitive research clearly indicate that chimpanzees and humans process faces in a special manner that is, using holistic or configural processing. The face is quite an important stimulus category for human and nonhuman primates in their social lives. ![]()

If you have never consumed this strain before, then it is best to adopt a low-and-slow approach to see how you tolerate Amnesia Haze’s effects. ![]() Given Amnesia Haze’s high THC level, novices or those who overindulge may experience dizziness, paranoia, or in some cases, a headache. The most commonly reported side effects of the Amnesia Haze strain are cottonmouth and, to a lesser extent, dry eyes. Possible Side Effects of the Amnesia Haze Strain However, given this strain’s energizing effects, it is completely unsuitable for addressing sleep disorders like insomnia. Its ability to improve mood and energize may help people with mood disorders, such as depression and anxiety, and those experiencing chronic fatigue.Īmnesia Haze is reportedly moderately effective at increasing appetite and alleviating pain. The Amnesia Haze strain offers many potential health benefits to medicinal consumers. Medical Benefits of the Amnesia Haze Strain Reportedly, Amnesia Haze can contain up to 1% CBD. Therefore, this hybrid is unsuitable for novices with little or no experience with potent marijuana strains. THC Content – Highest TestĪmnesia Haze has an average THC level of 21%, but tests show it can be as high as 25%. These plants are generally ready for harvesting around late October and produce a bountiful yield of 25 ounces per plant. Outdoors, Amnesia Haze does best in a balmy, sunny Mediterranean-type climate. It typically takes Amnesia Haze plants nine weeks to flower indoors, but the good news is you are looking at a return of around 21 ounces per square meter. After all, Amnesia Haze is a popular strain that you can find in most dispensaries.Īmnesia plants are susceptible to pests, so many cultivators opt to grow these plants indoors. Though it is possible to track down seeds, it’s perhaps best to leave the growing to the experts. This cannabis strain is not the easiest to cultivate and does require some growing experience to produce a healthy crop. The plant’s rust-colored pistils stand out prominently against the generous coating of frosty, resinous trichomes. The buds are conical in shape, tapered, and tightly packed. AppearanceĪ mature Amnesia Haze plant is of medium height with large, dense flowers. Fans of other Haze strains will likely pick up on Amnesia Haze’s spiciness, too. A sweet citrusy, lemony flavor predominates on the inhale, coating the tastebuds with sugary goodness.Īmnesia Haze’s earthiness is most prominent on the exhale, but the lip-licking lemon flavor lingers, leaving a lovely aftertaste. FlavorĪmnesia Haze weed lovers enjoy this strain’s silky smooth smoke because, unlike other strains, it doesn’t cause fits of coughing. The fragrance alone is enough to make the mouth water in anticipation of what’s to come. There is also a hint of woodiness, particularly cedar. Amnesia Haze has a pungent earthy aroma with a distinctive citrusy lemon undertone. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() In the best of all possible worlds, though regrettably not very often in our part of the world, the cream will then be cultured (or "ripened," "matured" or "soured") by the addition of good-guy bacteria, usually a mixture of Lactococcus and Leuconostoc strains, which produce lactic acid and diacetyl. In the United States, all cream used to make commercial butter must first be pasteurized by being held at 165 degrees for 30 minutes, a process that connoisseurs insist imparts a slightly cooked off-flavor compared with down-on-the-farm, unpasteurized butter. Both of these measures have important consequences for the butter. The bad guys can be knocked off by pasteurization, while the good guys can be encouraged by warm temperatures to go ahead and nosh, because as they do, they generate some wonderfully flavorful byproducts. Various breeds of bacteria, some good and some bad, view milk sugar (lactose) as yummy victuals and will thrive in cream if we let them. Butters that have been churned at different temperatures and then cooled and tempered differently (much as a pastry chef tempers chocolate to control its fat crystals) wind up with different ratios of free fat to crystals, and hence with different degrees of firmness, ranging from soft spreaders to bread shredders. Moreover, the milk fat in butter is partially in the form of a sea of soft, almost-liquid "free fat" and partially in the form of solid crystals. For one thing, in chemistry, the word "fat" means a triglyceride, whether it happens to be solid or liquid at room temperature. When cream is churned into butter, the mechanical action breaks the membranes surrounding the tiny fat globules so that they can coalesce first into rice-size grains and ultimately, after being squeezed and kneaded, into a continuous mass incorporating microscopic globules of water.īut, you say, butter is mostly a solid fat, not a liquid oil. It consists of microscopic fat globules dispersed throughout a watery liquid: an oil-in-water emulsion. Seemingly paradoxical is the fact that butter is made from cream, an emulsion with precisely the opposite structure. Such a stable configuration of two liquids that won't ordinarily mix is called an emulsion. On a microscopic scale, we would see that the water is in the form of tiny (less than 2 ten-thousandths of an inch) globules, dispersed uniformly throughout the sea of fat like so many grains of sand in a gelatin mold. But in butter, the milk's fatty part (frequently called butterfat) and the milk's watery part (the buttermilk) are combined in what appears to be a homogeneous mass. A touch of annatto extract, a fat-soluble natural coloring, is often added, especially in the winter when most breeds of cow produce paler fat because their diets are devoid of carotene-rich, new-growth vegetation.įats and water, of course, won't ordinarily mix. ![]() I'll get to these two phenomena later, but, first, a little background.īutter is a complex blend of fat (by law, at least 80 percent in the United States and 82 percent in the European Union) and water (16 percent to 18 percent), plus 1 percent or 2 percent protein (mostly casein) and perhaps 1.5 percent to 3 percent salt, which both kicks up the flavor and wards off rancidity. Butter contains a relatively large amount of water, and it's the water that gives butter its unfatlike properties, such as being able to bring a sauce together and frothing up when heated in a saute pan. ![]() Butter's magic arises from its uniqueness, not only in its history and renowned flavor but in its composition. Why does butter do it?Ĭalling butter a fat is like calling the Queen Mary 2 a transatlantic ferry. Adding any other fat, such as olive oil, doesn't do that. So in accordance with French culinary custom, I "finish" the sauce by adding a "nut" of butter and whisking it in lightly, whereupon the sauce magically thickens. When I make a sauce by deglazing the pan with wine or stock after sauteing meat, the result is usually too thin for my taste, even after reducing it. ![]() ![]() ![]() This software came to the rescue, clearing out almost 400 GBs.
