Space is huge. It is so immense that is very difficult to imagine the distances involved, even between the objects in our local neighbourhood, the Solar System. If astronomers used kilometres to describe these distances they would have to use very big numbers. Therefore, to simplify things, and to make the numbers smaller and easier to handle, different measurements are used.
The distance between the Earth and the Sun is about one hundred and fifty million kilometres. This is a big number, and so astronomers use the astronomical unit to describe this distance. One astronomical unit, or 'au', is the distance between the Earth and the Sun. It is used to compare the distances of other bodies in the Solar System, such as the Sun, the planets, comets, and asteroids.
What about beyond our Solar System? How far is it to the next nearest star, Proxima Centauri? Proxima Centauri is about 38 000 000 000 000 km (thirty eight million million kilometres) away. It is such a long way away, that if a spacecraft travelled to this star it could take around 75 000 years to get there.
Using the astronomical unit to describe the distances of stars (and objects outside our Solar System), doesn't really help to give small numbers for astronomers to work with. Promixa Centauri is a distance of roughly 265 000 au. Another unit is needed! So to measure the distance (to at least the nearest stars to us), light years can be used.
Light is the fastest thing we know. Through space, light can travel at a speed of nearly 300 000 km/s. A light year is the distance that light can travel in one year, which is 9 461 000 000 000 kilometres! To travel this distance to the next closest star to the Solar System, light takes around 4.2 years, therefore astronomers say that Proxima Centauri is 4.2 light years away.
That is just the nearest star. The night sky is filled with stars in our Galaxy, the Milky Way. The nearest large galaxy to the Milky Way is an enormous two and a half million light years away. That's just the nearest! Many galaxies, also packed with stars, are thousands of times further away. Space is huge!

Carlisle Lake District Airport readies for historic take-off
Carlisle Lake District Airport is readying for take-off with just a week to go before its historic launch of commercial flights on Thursday 4 July.
The Stobart Group-owned and operated airport has teamed-up with Loganair to offer routes to and from London Southend Airport, Belfast City Airport and Dublin Airport, opening Cumbria and the Lake District region to the South East of England, Northern Ireland and The Republic of Ireland.
The routes are on sale and tickets are available with fares to Belfast City starting from £39.99 and to Dublin and London Southend from £44.99.
The airport, which once served as an RAF airfield, has been transformed thanks to a new and modern terminal, its own Borderlands Café and new runways and taxiways.
The launch of commercial flights at Carlisle Lake District Airport has already attracted international media attention and the airport aims to draw-in business and travel customers from across the UK, The Republic of Ireland and much further afield.
Amongst other top attractions and business destinations, the airport is situated next two UNESCO World Heritage Sites – the Lake District National Park and Hadrian's Wall, the former frontier of the Roman Empire in the UK.
Key stats:
26 – the number of years since commercial flights took off at CLDA in 1993
28 – the number of Loganair flights in and out of CLDA per week
82,789 – the total metres of tarmac laid across CLDA's runways and taxiways
47,000,000 – the number of people who visited Cumbria in 2018*
3,000,000,000 – the amount of pounds sterling tourism contributes to the local economy per year*
Endless – the number of cups of teas set to be made at The Borderlands Café
Kate Willard, Director of Partnership Development for Stobart Group, said: "With just a week to go, we are all incredibly excited about the launch on Thursday 4 July. The team across Stobart Group have worked tirelessly to get Carlisle Lake District Airport ready for this historic moment. We hope that the airport will serve as a shining beacon of aspiration for Cumbria, Carlisle, the wider Lake District region and the Borderlands."
Kay Ryan, commercial director at Loganair, said: "As the big day approaches, everything is in place to begin operations from the UK's newest airport. Loganair is incredibly proud to become the first airline to serve the region in 26 years and is very much looking forward to welcoming our first passengers onboard. With a schedule designed for business and leisure passengers, these new routes are the ideal way to travel from Carlisle, the Lake District and Scotland's borders to London, Dublin and Belfast."

42 arrested for drugs offences in raids across Hackney and Tower Hamlets
42 men have been arrested in dawn raids tackling drugs gangs across Hackney and Tower Hamlets.
The arrests, which took place in the early hours of 24 February, 1 March and 3 March, were for offences including conspiracy to supply class A drugs such as cocaine and MDMA.
They marked the culmination of two long term and large scale investigations into organised drug dealing and county lines.
During the raids, officers seized 1kg of class A drugs (believed to be crack cocaine and heroin), 'party bags' containing drugs believed to be MDMA and cocaine, £210,000 in cash and 10 watches each valued at more than £10,000.
All of those arrested are believed to play a role in drug dealing networks, including county lines, and are integral to the running of several lines that operate around East London and into Essex and Sussex.
They are believed to be of varying levels of responsibility. Some are in overall control, some are responsible for sourcing vehicles and properties used in the supply of class A drugs and some are at the lower end, dealing the drugs on our streets.
Some of those arrested have also been linked to violent incidents over the past few years including firearm discharges and stabbings.
The investigations, one led by local officers and the other by the Met's Specialist Crime Command, form part of Operation Continuum, an intelligence-led, phased operation established in response to ongoing reports of drug dealing, drug use and associated criminality in the area.

Added "paramstyle" support for SQL connections, which now have a newParams() method to create a parameter object, and an addParam(params,value,name=None) method to add parameters to the params object (created via newParams()) and return the string that should be used to reference the parameter.
The peak script is now an .exe on Windows, using setuptools' "entry point" system.
Added a series of new QueryDM and EntityDM convenience features. See Making Data Managers easier to use for a complete list and explanatory documentation.
Changed running.lookupCommand() to use the command's getCommandParent() method, so that commands using the --config option will utilize the specified configuration(s) to lookup subcommands.
Added a -c/--config option to PEAK bootstrap commands to load an .ini configuration file in a new service area before executing any subcommands.
Added a binding.hasParent(component,parent) API function, which is specially optimized for use with generic functions, so that you can define generic function methods that apply only within some part of a component hierarchy.
PEAK no longer supports Python 2.2; Python 2.3.4 or better is required.
The kjbuckets extension module is no longer built and installed by default; you must explicitly enable it with a --with-kjbuckets flag passed to setup.py. Please port your code as soon as practical, this option will go away soon.
Use of the included kjbuckets module is now DEPRECATED, due to increasing bitrot. Aaron Watters originally wrote this extension for Python 1.2, and it has not been well-maintained for newer versions of the Python/C API. Instead of kjSet objects, use the Python 2.3 Set type, and instead of the kjGraph type, use the new Graph type in peak.util.Graph. Some porting effort may be required, as these types are not precisely the same in signature as the originals.
The _setNS() method of the peak.util.SOX.ISOXNode_NS interface has changed signature, due to a lack of use of the second argument in the code base, and its dependency on kjbuckets.
The old peak.security implementation has been removed, and replaced with a simpler, more flexible implementation based on generic functions (using less than half the code and seven fewer interfaces). Complete documentation and API tests for the new implementation can be found in rules.txt in the peak.security package directory.
Also, the new implemetation does not require redundant security.allow(security.Anybody) declarations just because you've declared other permissions for a class, so these declarations have been removed from ``peak.web``. They don't do any harm, however, so you can leave them in your own code as long as you change them to use binding.metadata() instead of the deprecated security.allow().
Added peak.running.options, a new option-parsing framework that extends optparse to support the PEAK commands framework. Command instances can now refer to self.parsed_args to find their non-option arguments, and to trigger setting of their attributes (or calling of methods) based on their raw arguments from self.argv. See options.txt in the peak.running package directory for a complete tutorial.
There is now a binding.initAttrs() function that can be used to initialize an object's attributes from e.g. constructor keyword arguments, similar to how binding.Component and binding.Attribute constructors work.
Security permissions can now be declared as attribute metadata.
It isn't necessary to enclose metadata in brackets, but it helps to emphasize its annotational nature. Also note that e.g. web.bindResource() needs metadata to be a keyword argument.
The permissionNeeded attribute of model.Feature and binding.Attribute objects is now DEPRECATED. See examples above for how to upgrade, and please switch to using metadata as soon as practical. In addition the security.IGuardedDescriptor interface has been removed, because it was only used in connection with the permissionNeeded attribute mechanism.
Added a new "attribute metadata" mini-framework to peak.binding. This framework makes it possible to declare arbitrary metadata about attributes, using either a class advisor (binding.metadata(), similar in form and function to the existing security.allow()) or using a metadata attribute of attribute bindings (which is the second positional parameter in all the standard bindings like Make, Obtain, etc.). Over time, existing metadata mechanisms will be refactored to use this new mini-framework, instead of the various integrated ad-hoc mechanisms that exist now (like the permissionNeeded attribute). For more information on how the new metadata hooks work, including doctest examples, see the attributes.txt file in the peak.binding package, under the heading "Attribute Metadata".
Added a new function, binding.activateClass(), that can be used to activate any bindings in the class. This can now be used in place of subclassing a PEAK base class or using a PEAK metaclass. In future, this will be integrated into PEAK attribute descriptors such that defining a descriptor within a class' body is sufficient to cause this function to be invoked.
binding.IBindingNode was REMOVED, consolidated into binding.IComponent, as its various individual methods have been replaced with generic functions in the existing binding API. For example, binding.getParentComponent(x) should be used in preference to x.getParentComponent() unless it is a requirement that x implement the full binding.IComponent interface. This makes it easier to define what binding.getParentComponent() and binding.getComponentName() will mean for non-component types, as you do not have to define an adapter class with all of the IBindingNode methods. Also, this makes PEAK itself cleaner, as we often weren't bothering to properly implement the full IBindingNode interface anyway.
In addition, binding.suggestParentComponent() is now also a generic function, dispatching on the target (i.e. child) object.
naming.IReferenceable was REMOVED, as it is not in use anywhere in PEAK. This will be replaced with a generic function when we do actually need this functionality.
There is a new config.getStreamFactory generic function, to make it easy to accept URLs, filenames, or naming.IStreamFactory objects as the source of a "file".
where source is a string or a naming.IStreamFactory, and self is a component to be used as lookup context. The returned factory is a naming.IStreamFactory that can then be '.open()'-ed for reading, or used in other ways as needed.
"""Return a naming.IStreamFactory for 'source' (a 'MyType' instance)"""
Wherever practical, as we encounter them, we'll be changing PEAK API's that take filenames to also accept stream sources.
Added an optional base argument to naming.parseURL(), to allow parsing URLs relative to a base URL. For a URL scheme to support this, it must implement the new naming.IBaseURL interface. See the peak.naming.factories.openable module for example implementations.
Added a data: URL scheme, implementing RFC 2397 (although it's not as strict in its parsing of the content type and parameters as the RFC calls for). This is a semi-convenient way to provide configuration data in-line, since a data: URL can be a config.getStreamFactory() source.
Added config.processXML(), a function that provides a high-level, configuration-driven interface to peak.util.SOX.NegotiatingParser. This simple front-end lets you supply as little as a configuration context and a stream source, to do XML processing of arbitrary complexity, controlled by the configuration of the context.
web.IResource is gone, replaced by web.IPlace. The notion of a place is broader than the notion of a resource, and we will soon need to have other "location" objects that implement IPlace.
In order to support obtaining the line and column locations of problems in XML files, we are now using Python 2.4's version of the pyexpat module, built as peak.util.pyexpat.
There's a new class, config.IniLoader, that can be used to lazily load .ini files as configuration. IniLoader instances have an iniFiles attribute that lists the configuration sources (filenames/URLs/factories) to be used, and automatically load the .ini files as soon as you try to get any configuration data for them. Previously, similar functionality was only available via config.makeRoot().
Attempting to look up any configuration properties via the cfg object will cause it to load the specified .ini file.
config.fileNearModule() is DEPRECATED, in favor of config.packageFile(). The latter returns a naming.IStreamFactory, which is more suitable for working with e.g. module data files compressed in a zipfile. Uses of fileNearModule() that were being passed to config.loadConfigFile() can be safely changed to config.packageFile() without needing any other code changes, but if you were directly using fileNearModule() as a filename, you will need to rewrite appropriately.
config.loadConfigFile() and config.loadConfigFiles() now accept URLs, naming.IStreamFactory objects, and other config.getStreamFactory() targets as well as filenames. This was primarily added to support use of config.packageFile() or pkgfile: URLs, in place of using config.fileNearModule().
The peak.util.WSGIServer module has been moved to the wsgiref.simple_server module. The wsgiref reference library for WSGI (aka PEP 333) is now distributed with PEAK.
Added a WSGI command to the peak script, to allow you to run "foreign" (i.e. non-PEAK) PEP 333 applications in PEAK's various servers and launchers. Basically, by prefixing WSGI before the import specifier, you can now run such foreign apps.
will run it under the CGI/FastCGI runner. Similarly, you can use this in the "Command" spec for the "peak supervise" pre-forking FastCGI supervisor subsystem.
Of course, if you use the peak.web framework, you don't need to worry about any of this; your apps will automatically be wrapped as IWSGIApplication, and run in any PEAK server or gateway.
Most peak.web interfaces have changed significantly. If you implemented anything based on the older interfaces, and it still works, it's sheer bloody luck. In particular, note that every method in web.IWebTraversable now has different inputs and/or outputs than before. Please read the new interface docs and update your code! The changed interfaces offer much more flexibility and functionality than before, but they will require you to update your code.
web.ContainerAsTraversable has been removed. It was redundant, since the new default traversal mechanism used by Traversable and Decorator now handles getitem, getattr, and views.
events.AnyOf could hold multiple references to a single event source, and nesting AnyOf() calls could leak references to the nested events.
events.subscribe() had a potential race condition wherein a callback could be invoked after its weak reference was garbage collected, leading to bizarre error messages about self being None.
select() could be called on select event objects even if there were no current subscribers to the event, potentially leading to calling select() on a closed socket.
Non-default signal handlers were remaining installed even when there were no current subscribers to the applicable event, as long as a reference to the event object existed.
Added config.registeredProtocol() API, that supports defining named and local protocols. This allows easy emulation of Zope 3's "named" and "local" adapters and views.
binding.Component objects no longer support instance configuration at runtime (i.e., they no longer implement config.IConfigurable). If you need a component to be configurable at runtime, you must now derive from (or mix in) binding.Configurable instead. If you get errors about a missing registerProvider attribute, or about being unable to adapt to IConfigurable, try changing your base class from binding.Component to binding.Configurable, or add it as a mixin if you're deriving from a class that uses binding.Component as its base.
binding.IComponent no longer derives from config.IConfigurable or config.IConfigMap, only config.IConfigSource. This means that IComponent no longer guarantees or requires the presence of the registerProvider() method: now only config.IConfigurable does that.
The config.IConfigMap interface is now DEPRECATED. Use config.IConfigurable instead. The _configKeysMatching() method of IConfigMap was moved to config.IConfigSource, so if you've implemented a custom IConfigSource, be sure to add this method.
web.ISkinService and web.ILayerService were consolidated into web.IInteractionPolicy, because the need to have configurable implementations of these services is negligible. That is, the corresponding property namespaces (peak.web.skins and peak.web.layers) are more than adequate as registries.
Removed peak.running.timers and peak.util.dispatch. Neither was in active use, and both are being replaced by the new generic functions package in PyProtocols.
The config.iterParents API is now moved to binding.iterParents, and all binding functions that walk the component hierarchy use it. It has also been changed to avoid infinite loops in the case of a pathological component structure.
The persistence package has been moved to peak.persistence to avoid conflicts with ZODB3 and the latest version of Zope 3. It will eventually be phased out, but for now this move is the simplest way to get it out of the way.
The peak.util.SOX module now uses only one parser, based directly on expat, instead of using SAX. The new parser expects a new node interface, IXMLBuilder, but adapters from the previous interfaces (ISOXNode and ISOXNode_NS) are supplied for backward compatibility. All of PEAK's direct XML handling (currently just peak.storage.xmi and peak.web.templates) have been refactored to use the new interface. Some parsing classes (such as ObjectMakingHandler, NSHandler, and DOMletParser) are no longer available.
peak.web no longer uses Zope X3 for HTTP publishing support; it has been refactored to use a simpler, more uniform architecture See also more on the architecture and subsequent posts in that thread.
The pageProtocol, pathProtocol, and errorProtocol machinery are gone. They will be replaced in the future with an explicit "controller" wrapping mechanism to allow application-specific renderings of the same underlying components.
The Zope request and response objects are gone, along with all of their special handling for cookies, character sets, form variables, automatically marshalling parameters to functions, etc. These items of functionality will be gradually replaced by functions in peak.web.api.
As a result of this, arbitrary functions and methods can no longer be used as web pages; instead, functions and methods to be published must use the same inputs and outputs as the IHTTPHandler.handle_http() method.
The IWebPage, IWebInteraction, ITraversalContext, Traversal, TraversalContext, and Interaction interfaces and classes no longer exist, as they are unneeded in the new architecture. Instead of having a central IWebInteraction that's referenced by numerous ITraversalContext objects, the new approach uses an environ mapping for most functions. For access control, a security.IInteraction is now used, whose function is limited to security checks. Most functions previously performed by IWebInteraction have moved to IInteractionPolicy or to peak.web.api functions operating on environ mappings.
Web exceptions can define a levelName attribute that determines the severity level with which the exception will be logged. This allows one to e.g. avoid logging tracebacks for NotFound errors.
Various interface calling signatures have changed slightly. For example, IAuthService.getUser() now accepts an environ mapping instead of an interaction. IInteractionPolicy.newInteraction() now takes keyword arguments, but not a request. The IWebTraversable interface no longer has a getObject() method, and the IWebException.handleException() method signature has changed as well. Finally, all methods that previously accepted ITraversalContext (such as IDOMletState.renderFor()) now expect environ mappings.
web.TestInteraction was replaced with web.TestPolicy, and web.Interaction was removed, since IWebInteraction is no longer part of the architecture.
The log() method of PEAK loggers (logs.ILogger) now accepts a level name or a number, for convenient invocation.
SQL transaction semantics have changed. Now, issuing an SQL statement always causes the connection to join the active PEAK transaction, even if you request that the SQL be issued "outside" a transaction. Such SQL will be issued outside of the database transaction, but not outside of the PEAK transaction. This simplifies the overall processing model for dealing with "untransacted" SQL such as Sybase DDL or read-only Oracle transactions. (In particular, the requirement that triggered this change was to allow Oracle read-only transactions to be released at the end of the current PEAK transaction.) Also, got rid of the now-meaningless begin command in n2.
The events.IEventSource interface now returns a canceller function from the addCallback() method, allowing you to cancel a previously-scheduled callback. This fixes a memory leak and performance problem with events.AnyOf(), which previously could accumulate unneeded callbacks on the sources it was monitoring. Note that if you have developed any custom event sources with addCallback() methods, you must make sure that they return a canceller from now on.
Added ref:factory@addr1||addr2 URL scheme that maps to a corresponding naming.Reference("factory",["addr1","addr2"]). factory can be either a dotted import string referencing a naming.IObjectFactory, or you can define a factory in the peak.naming.factories property space.

Voz Ativa: Biblioteca SocialMariana Lanari, Casa do Povo
Carol Quintanilha and Rubens Crispim Jr.
Voz Ativa: Biblioteca Social [Active Voice: Social Library] is an inedited installation that proposes to reactivate the Casa do Povo library, a space that remained closed for 40 years. The proposition of artist Mariana Lanari consists of distributing the institution's collection of more than 8 thousand books over a 500 square meters surface during the exhibition period, from July 2nd to 27th, 2019.
The books will be disposed on the floor over a drawing of the map of Bom Retiro, the neighborhood where Casa do Povo is situated. To project the vicinity on the books is a way to remind ourselves of the history of this library, composed by different private collections of migrants who came to Brazil escaping the Second World War in the 1940s and found a home at Bom Retiro. In addition to titles in Portuguese, the collection also contains titles in Yiddish, German, French, Russian, and Spanish, encompassing themes connected with the culture of resistance, economy, politics, social movements, pedagogical avant-gardes, literature, art, and Jewish culture.
Just as a neighborhood without residents does not make a vicinity, a library without readers is nothing but a warehouse. In Active Voice: Social Library, the audience is invited to transit in this library-neighborhood and to take part in a sound performance where seven voices are mixed live by the artist. A sound system, with mikes spread throughout the space, will allow to compile amplified and remixed readings over the exhibition period. "The idea is to invite people to read these books and to mix those recordings live, making it a collective performance that maps the themes of the library, all the while it works as an engine that puts the collection in movement," explains the project curator Marília Loureiro.
Through the instructions provided by Mariana Lanari, the reader-visitor will also be able to intervene in the installation, moving books in the space based in different and possible cataloging criteria, so as to allow this constantly moving library to become a rhizome, without getting stuck to classical systems of knowledge division.
Mariana Lanari is an editor, artist, and researcher based in Amsterdam. Her research is based on cultural translation dynamics, the interactions between policies of access to knowledge, as well as collective memory infrastructures in archives and libraries, both physical and digital. In 2015/2016, she accomplished the project Moving Thinking – the origin of one's thought is the thought of another, which took place at the Stedelijk Museum library, in Amsterdam, one of the main modern art collections in Europe. For this nine-month performance, the artist reconfigured the collection of more than 190 thousand volumes, regrouping the books and creating new connections, in which the elements found in a title were the point of departure to catalog the following book, thus suggesting a metaphor to the construction of thought and the memory of the museum.

Most likely with the sequel, the games will feature the new 107 Pokemon from Diamond and Pearl in addition to the 386 making it total 493.
Nothing too major is known about Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2. The game will be featuring however an even more engaging storyline along with a new gameplay format, and it will support Wi-Fi.
We'll bring you any more developments about the title when more information is released later in the year.
Pretty busy month so far at PH. Lots of work my staff and I are trying to complete in time for Diamond and Pearl. Nevertheless, I managed to squeeze in some quick updates today.
First and foremost PH finally has well...a Diamond and Pearl section. xD It's just a quick overview of the games right now but that section will grow to be one of our biggest sections once the games are released. I'm quite excited about it.
In other news, Fun Latias has been helping me out some to fix our "Don't Click Here" page. It needed some refreshing; particularly the new award it has in it. Oh, but it's still as evil as ever though! Also Fun Latias put up some new avatars on our "Free Avatars" page. Looking spiffy as always. ^^ I also received some new fan art which I put up. Been a while since I got some new art so please send artwork to us! We'd love to showcase your Pokemon Artwork.
Phew...with still many incomplete pages, we still have our work cut out for us here at PH. We'll pull through though; just in time for Diamond and Pearl to come. I've preordered my copies! See you all soon!
Well, I've been working real hard this week and finally much of my work has paid off. =D As you notice to your left, my newly revised navigation. It now has the games listed on a separate page making access and the site layout much more organized and less confusing to you guys. I also put the Saybox back on the bottom left side. It was very popular before and since I made the changes, I've been able to save a lot of space to put more things on the layout.
I also started our brand new Pokemon Fire Red and Leaf Green section. It's going to take me some time to finish it with the upcoming Pokemon Diamond and Pearl still needing a section and other random pages but I'll get it done. A quarter of it is already complete.
There is still much more for me and my staff to do for this month, and we're only getting started...Heh see you all soon!

Official: Palermo appoint Novellino
by Gaby | Mar 10, 2016 14:26
Palermo have officially confirmed Walter Novellino as their new Coach, the eighth change this season.
The Rosanero have had a chaotic last few months, compounded by the resignation of Beppe Iachini this week, just two games after being recalled following his sacking earlier this season.
It emerged yesterday that Novellino was the favourite to take over, and the former Sampdoria boss has now been officially confirmed.
"US Citta di Palermo announces that Walter Novellino is the new Coach of the first team," a statement on the club's official website began.
"The Coach, born in Montemarano on June 4, 1953 has previously taken charge of Napoli, Torino and Sampdoria among others.
"This afternoon he will take his first training session."

Port Macquarie è una città costiera del Nuovo Galles del Sud in Australia, Municipalità di Port Macquarie - Hastings. Nel 2006 contava 38.598 abitanti. È sede della municipalità.

Geografia
La città è situata a circa 390 km a nord di Sydney e a 570 km a sud di Brisbane. Si trova sulla riva del fiume Hastings.

Storia
La prima visita di un europeo nella regione risale al 1820, quando John Oxley raggiunse la costa partendo dall'interno del paese. Egli diede alla zona il nome del governatore dello stato Lachlan Macquarie. La città fu subito un centro penitenziario prima di diventare una città.

La città è nota soprattutto per i suoi koala, le sue numerose spiagge e i suoi corsi d'acqua. Almeno 350 koala perirono nel novembre 2019 a causa degli incendi nella riserva di Port Macquarie, ipotecando così l'avvenire della specie in questa zona.

Reiner and Irma
In 1972 Reiner Klapp, founder of Klapp Electronics, and his wife Irma, purchased their 40 hectare weekend retreat in the picturesque foothills of the Great Dividing Range on Long Gully Road just west of Healesville. Little did they know then, that this decision would become the beginning of a whole new life for them and they certainly had no idea that they would go on to become major contributors to the rebirth of the wine industry in the Yarra Valley.
For the first ten years they grazed cattle on their weekend 'hobby farm' but by 1982 they could no longer ignore the enormous potential for their property to produce top quality grapes.
The initial planting was a total of only 2.2 hectares consisting of Riesling, Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon. Further plantings over the ensuing years added Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec and Viognier, eventually bringing the total plantings to nearly 30 hectares.
Long Gully Estate grew to become one of the larger 'boutique vineyards' in the Yarra Valley, building their own on-site wine making facility and crushing around 100 tons of grapes every vintage.
Reiner coined the often-quoted phrase, "life is too short to drink bad wine" and he was an energetic promoter of excellence in wine making as its own reward. He knew that great wine could only come from exceptional grapes so he worked the vines for quality and not quantity, shoot thinning and hand harvesting as necessary to ensure the best from each vine. Reiner had built his electronic business importing the best quality Hi Fi technology from around the world and his winery would be no different. Long Gully was one of the first wineries in the Yarra Valley to install what was then cutting-edge Roto fermentation equipment and a state of the art GAI automated bottling line, both of which are still in use at the winery today.
In the heady days of the winery's success, Long Gully wines were served on all Ansett Airline flights for nearly a decade and specially labelled Red and White Long Gully wines were served in the Victorian parliamentary dining room. The winery received numerous awards and accolades for their exceptional wines, winning 9 prestigious trophies and a tally of gold, silver and bronze medals numbering in the hundreds.
"Life is too short to drink bad wine!"
Robert and Irene
In 1996 with Long Gully at the height of its success, a young couple Robert and Irene Magdziarz and their two-year old daughter Olivia, visited Reiner there on a midweek day sometime in December/January. Robert and Irene were planning to bid on a neighbouring property called Taraford at an upcoming auction. They had asked Reiner for advice on the Yarra Valley region and although such knowledge was a precious and valuable commodity, Reiner had graciously offered to share what he knew. The vineyard was in full canopy and while young Olivia played in the vine rows, Reiner made them welcome and offered what wisdom he could to help them with their dream.
Sadly, the price on auction day was more than the couple could afford, but they never forgot the generous heart that Reiner had displayed in helping them as newcomers trying to get started in the Yarra Valley.
About a year later Robert and Irene bought their first property in the Macedon Ranges. Planting vines as soon as they could, they contracted local winemaker Alan Cooper of Cobaw Ridge to make their wine from the first harvest three years later. Fast forward through five vintages with Robert simultaneously running hospitality venues in Melbourne, it all became too much, so their "Field of Dreams" Vineyard in Kyneton was sold in 2005.
Two years later a business windfall had Robert and Irene in a position to once again pursue their dream of a property in the Yarra Valley. Two years searching and a dozen potential vineyards later, they purchased Warramunda in 2007. Warramunda was an established vineyard on the golden mile of Maroondah highway with Domaine Chandon, Domenic Portet, Oakridge and Rochford for neighbours.
Rob and Irene ran Warramunda for ten years with Rob splitting his time between the vineyard and his Melbourne business commitments. Selling grapes in the early years, they moved on by engaging Ben Haines as their winemaker, to oversee their contract wine making activities at Yering Station winery making Warramunda wine. They built a cellar door and things went from strength to strength, but that last step of having their own winemaking facility for one reason or another always seemed to elude them.
Reiner meanwhile had been suffering from ill health for some years and with the added pressure of large risks in the unpredictable export market, he passed away in 2009. Long Gully traded on but without Reiner's passion something seemed to be missing. A variety of management options were tried over the ensuing years but by 2017 it had become clear, that if Long Gully was to ever flourish again, it would require a substantial capital injection and a renewed vision. With that capital injection not forthcoming, the property was reluctantly placed on the market.
Sometime in mid-2018, Yering Station informed Warramunda that the arrangement they had for making wine in their winery was untenable going forward. At about this same time, Robert heard that Long Gully with its wine making facility may be available for purchase. Encouraged by feelings of nostalgia and a sense of possible destiny, Robert contacted the agent and met with Irma at Long Gully. Negotiations continued over the ensuing months with Robert finally concluding that the purchase was too ambitious to undertake alone. He rang a
friend who was unable to help but suggested Robert contact a mutual acquaintance of them both, an old guy who had just sold his busines and retired, but who might be up for it as a way of smelling the roses in his twilight years. Robert contacted Vin Lopes and on an intoxicating spring day standing on the balcony of the old cottage overlooking the vineyard, the two agreed to purchase and revitalise Long Gully Estate.
The New Beginning
Robert and Vin
The contract to purchase Long Gully Estate was signed in December 2018, with a condition that access be granted prior to settlement for immediate hard pruning to be undertaken, to take advantage of what was left of the season to revitalise the vines. It would be two years of rescue work before the Long Gully vines would produce again, but Warramunda fruit would be due for harvest in a matter of weeks and much needed to be done to prepare the winery for vintage. Brendan Hawker was appointed as the new winemaker for Long Gully and Ben Haines came on board as a consultant for the first vintage. As a winemaker and vendor in his own right, Ben would also produce his own wines at the Long Gully facility.
Several new open top fermenters were rushed into place and temporary fixes were applied to the cooling system to get it operational in the short term. A new forklift with bin tipper, new hoses and new pumps, were unpacked and commissioned. Truckloads of neutral oak barrels were purchased and stacked in the old barrel hall and new oak was sourced wherever stock was available in Australia.
In mid-February 2019, Warramunda grapes began arriving at the winery even before the plastic was fully peeled from the stainless-steel of the new fermenters; ready or not vintage was upon us. Brendan and Ben worked from first light to dusk and because at that time we were yet to get possession of the cellar door cottage, they both slept in tents on the lawn for the crucial weeks of vintage. Together these two men processed 170 ton of fruit that year using every tank and container they could lay their hands on. The full vintage for Warramunda was processed and using Warramunda fruit, the first "new beginning" Long Gully Estate wines were also pressed.
By May with the new wine in barrel, discussion started on a road map for the future. Plans were drawn up to refurbish and re-equip the winery building, adding a new dedicated bottling room for the GAI line and a new lab and offices for the winemakers. A new tree lined driveway would also be added, leading to a new carpark and a new cellar door building with capacity for large group tastings.
With the plans lodged at local council and the long wait for a planning permit underway, Rob, Vin and Brendan flew to Adelaide for the Wine Tech Show in mid-July. Meetings and discussions with international suppliers exhibiting at Wine Tech led to orders being placed. A new 90 ton capacity fermenter farm coming from China, plus a new Scharfenberger berry sorting de-stemmer and a new state of the art programmable computer controlled Scharfenberger grape press. Both of the latter coming from Germany and all to arrive in country by January for next vintage.
Work began in October to refurbish the existing old winery building to receive the new equipment. Old equipment was relocated, floors were sealed, gantries were rebuilt, a new glycol refrigeration system installed and all plumbing completely overhauled. During this activity the planning permit came through from council but the new buildings would have to wait. Once again, with vintage bearing down on us, all we could focus on was being ready for fruit. The new equipment arrived in January with the Aussie exchange rate at a ten-year low and it was all commissioned in the refurbished old winery building with only days to spare.
With the new equipment the capacity of the winery had tripled. This time we had new oak from the premium forests of France sporting the Long Gully brand. Ben Haines was back to make his wine and our new assistant wine maker Hamish Smith came in from Europe early to help with preparations. Brendan had arranged for two student winemakers Tomaso from Italy and Clement from France to join the team for vintage and Olivia from Warramunda was there to continue her winemaking journey with the boys. The stage was set for a momentous year.
Well momentous it was but not what we expected. Unusually big rains early in the season pushed the growth season back. Then big winds and hail during flowering damaged much of the new growth. Searing heat and wild bushfires ravaged the entire east coast of Australia with risk of smoke and temperature damage. Then late in the summer unseasonal cold and rain caused mildew risk and crop damage. The 2020 wine crop was down dramatically not just in the Yarra Valley but right across South Eastern Australia with many vineyards losing their entire crop to fire or smoke damage. With the reworked Long Gully vines yet to produce crop we were relying on Warramunda and other vineyards for 2020 fruit but with crops down everywhere our purchase allocations from other vineyards were all cut. Our new big winery pressed barely a hundred ton of fruit for the vintage. Then just when it couldn't get any worse, it did, Corona Virus closed Australia down.
2020 wine is now in barrel but one observation Brendan made during vintage was that although quantity was down, quality was up markedly. With less bunches on them the vines pushed more quality into the fruit and to quote the winemakers during pressing "they are like little flavour bombs." Development in the barrels since then has reinforced that view. 2020 Long Gully wines will be outstanding but could very quickly be in short supply. The first of these wines are almost ready for bottling and should be available for purchase very soon. Enjoy.
With lockdown restrictions winding back we have demolished the old cellar door cottage and are planning to commence construction of the new cellar door and the winery extension in the coming days. Hopefully we will be entertaining fellow wine lovers on the new deck overlooking the vines sometime in the new year.
At the time of writing it is September 2020. The Long Gully vines have been restored with new canes laid out on the wires and all looks great for our "new beginning" 2021 Estate crop from these venerable old vines.

Tango, the Latest Wallycento Super-yacht Launched
By Mills Design Posted on August 3, 2017 in News
Our 100′ Wally 'Tango' was launched in Savona, Italy yesterday to begin a busy month of sea trials before the handover to the client. This opens a new chapter in an intense and exciting build project, our largest to date. It is also we believe the most innovative, the most stylish, and certainly has been one of the most satisfying to develop in collaboration with the client and his team, Wally Yachts, Pininfarina, and Persico Marine.
We owe our involvement to the vision of Wally founder Luca Bassani who suggested us to bring a fresh mindset to the wallycento design question. Presenting as a team with research partner KND-Sailing Performance and structural partner Pure Engineering we showed a radical proposal combining dramatic deck geometry with a novel interior layout for the most efficient 'packaging' of the required volumes, integrated with the structure to a level not yet seen in a yacht of this size. That proposal very quickly became the yacht that launches this month after huge amounts of detail development, but very little deviation from the original vision for a sleek, light, and exciting sailing machine.
To bring this highly refined concept to a full resolution required the total engagement of Persico Marine in the development and execution of the complex composites and systems. Setting a new standard for large race yachts of this type, the intensity of the composite construction matches that of aTP52 or Maxi 72, and with the optimisation of the extensive systems with Project Manager Carlo Torre, have resulted in significant gains through weight reduction and centralisation. Combined with the strikingly modern interior design from Pininfarina it is clear the entire team have achieved something extraordinary.
We are looking forward to the launch and sail trials, then showing her off briefly at the Monaco Yacht Show before she gets to her natural environment on the racecourse. Designer Mark Mills commented that "For such a significant and challenging project with so many key players it still surprises me that it has been the most positive and dynamic of environments. That collaborative ethos contributes hugely to making the gains in all of the areas we wanted in order to move the game on."

Nick Lawrence
"What style of music do you play?" is a regular question asked of all musicians. Although predominantly folk and country, Nick also dips his toes into numerous other genres. His answer to the question is "I don't know. You decide."
Formerly the frontman of rock and blues covers band BackBurner, Nick went solo after the band decided to call it day. Honing his craft at venues around the Folkestone area before taking off on a 2 year jaunt to Toronto, Nick performed under the name Lucky Jackson for several years before deciding to lose that persona and perform under his own name.
As a performer, Nick quickly acquired a name for himself for playing a range foot-stomping Irish folk and heartfelt ballads. As a songwriter, he has gained respect for penning crowd favourites such as "The Beard Song", "Come Drink With Me My Friends" and "I Really Don't Love You".
Having released 2 EPs and a music video, Nick has took some time out to complete a Masters at university. He is now due back in the studio in March 2017 to begin the recording of his 3rd EP. Nick is very excited about this latest EP as it will have him working with a full band again. Plans for a music video are also well underway for one of the tracks from the new EP.

Between 1773 and 1790 the island of Bockholmen, now known as Kuninkaansaari, was used as a naval base by the archipelago fleet of the Swedish King Gustav III. After an inconclusive battle in 1788, the fleet was defeated by Russian warships in 1789. Then in 1790 Gustav II retaliated with a reinforced fleet, and Sweden won one of its greatest naval victories – after which the island was named Kuninkaansaari – the King's Island.
In the 19th century, after Russia gained sovereignty over Finland, the island was fortified by Russian occupiers. In 1906 unrest preceding the Russian Revolution broke out here and on neighbouring Suomenlinna, then known as Viapori, in the form of a mutinous armed uprising. The mutineers' luck turned when an ammunition cellar blew up on the second day of the rebellion. The explosion shattered the rocks along the shore leaving a deep cleft in the cliffs. The force of the blast was so strong that windows were broken in the Helsinki district of Kallio several kilometres away.

I have sample dataframe above. I wish to calculate percentage True for each date. I am able to do as below. But, feel it can be done with groupby + agg. Is it possible?
My attempt:
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np

df['T/F'] = df['T/F'].map({'T':1, 'F':0})
df['T'] = np.where(df['T/F']==1, 1, 0)
df['F'] = 1 - df['T']

df = df.groupby('Ddate').agg(
    {
        'T': sum,
        'F': sum,
    }
)

df['Total'] = df['T'] + df['F']
df['per T'] = df['T'] / df['Total'] * 100

A: You can do groupby like this:
df['T/F'].eq('T').groupby([df['Date']]).mean()

Output:
Date
01-01-2019    1.0
02-01-2019    1.0
03-01-2019    1.0
04-01-2019    0.0
05-01-2019    0.0
Name: T/F, dtype: float64

You can get both percentages for T and F with crosstab:
pd.crosstab(df.Date, df['T/F'], normalize='index')

Output:
T/F           F    T
Date
01-01-2019  0.0  1.0
02-01-2019  0.0  1.0
03-01-2019  0.0  1.0
04-01-2019  1.0  0.0
05-01-2019  1.0  0.0

Note 1: Extra comment to your code: The counts per date can be obtained by:
counts = pd.crosstab(df['Date'], df['T/F'])

Then the percentage of T can be:
counts['per T'] = counts['T']/counts.sum(axis=1)

Note 2: Don't do groupby().agg({'col1': sum, 'col2':sum}) because:

*

*sum is python native, and is slow

*agg is slow(er), and only useful when you want to perform different operations to different columns.

Do: groupby()[['col1','col2']].sum()
Note 3: All of the solutions above give percentage in scale 0-1. If you want scale 0-100, you know what to do.

Transylvania is best known as the mysterious land of blood thirsty vampires and howling wolves. Some may think it's fictional, but this central Romanian region is a real place. And it's pretty special, too.
Transylvania is home to some of Europe's best-preserved medieval towns, most notably Brasov, featuring Old Saxon architecture and citadel ruins; Sibiu with its cobblestone streets and pastel-colored houses, and Sighisoara, adorned with a hilltop citadel, secret passageways and a 14th century clock tower. Tiny shops offer antiques and fine hand-made products by local artisans and artists.
Visitors to Transylvania will also encounter stunning castles such Bran, near Brasov, – a Gothic fairy-tale structure, often associated with 15th century Walachia Prince Vlad Tepes, the inspiration for Bram Stoker's Dracula. While the connection with Vlad is tenuous, the deep bond of local villagers with the legend is not.

Jethro Tull--Living In The Past Next Review: #825
Nancy Sinatra--The Hit Years
Little Eva is best known for her #1 hit, "The Loco-motion." Many artists after her have covered this tune, including Grand Funk (who also hit #1 with their version), and Kyle Minouge, to name a few. But Little Eva's version is the best known, and there really isn't any other song that people can remember from her career. Yet she had other hits (maybe not as popular and/or memorable); Collectibles Records, one of the many labels that chronicles the career of groups and artists, released The Best Of Little Eva, a 15-song set in 1991.
Little Eva got her big break when she was a baby-sitter for songwriters Carole King and Gerry Goffin. Asking her to record the latest song they had written, "The Loco-motion" was an overnight success for Eva, and was also #1. Two other hits that would be popular (Top 20 hits) were "Keep Your Hands Off My Baby," and "Let's Turkey Trot" -- both typical late-50s, early 60s doo-wop.
"Where Do I Go" also has the doo-wop sound, likewise "Old Smokey Locomotion" is actually "On Top Of Old Smokey," with a 50s updated sound, and referencing "The Loco-motion," which was already a big hit.
There are 3 duets with Big Dee Irwin, a singer who had been with the group The Pastels: The Bing Crosby favorite, "Swingin' On A Star" and the standard "Christmas Song" (Nat King Cole) has the '50s doo-wop update sound on the Crosby classic, and a more soulful approach for the Christmas favorite. "Heigh-Ho" is more R&B, as this was the sound, graduating from doo-wop, into a more Soul environment.
"What I Gotta Do (To Make You Jealous)" and "The Trouble With Boys" have the sound of such girl-groups as The Ronettes, The Crystals, and The Chantels. These songs could easily be "mistaken" as one of Phil Spector's Wall of Sound arrangements. Another song in this category, is "Just A Little Girl."
The ballad "Please Hurt Me" is a very R&B soulful tune, "Makin' With The Magila" is upbeat R&B, "Wake Up John" is medium-R&B / early Motown, and "Get Him" has the typical early-'60s girl-group sound.
Little Eva's music showcases the early years of R&B music: doo-wop, Soul, Phil Spector and Motown. A great look at early Rock and Roll music. If you happen to be a baby-sitter for any songwriter(s), you may want to be browse through their songs and see which ones you think will be a hit, maybe they'll give you the opportunity to sing it.

Hello, 2004 Wagon owner, with a few questions!!
Huzzah!! ANOTHER wagon! Welcome to the forum. We have a thread on here dedicated to the wagons. It's called Wagon Love. Do a quick search and post us up a photo of your long top. We are always interested to see another.
Welcome to the forum fellow wagoneer (I also own a 2004).
- And a bunch of other really cool stuff that will all be revealed in the spring.
I am also one of the wagon crowd though I hardly ever post. Mine is a Smokestone 2007 V6 Grand Touring I bought new. It currently has just over 240k miles on it and is still running great! No mods, just a daily driver and hard worker.

Q: Create EXCEL and open it I'm creating an excel file, and I must open it immediately.
Obviously, when I create it on localhost, I can get the file, but when I publish my web application on IIS this not works because I suppose It's creating on server side...
So I create the excel file and try to upload to the server and after that download it, but I can't create it, If I run this on localhost works, but when I publish don't work.
Any advice?
this is my code:
I use this libraries for Excel:
using Microsoft.Office.Core;
using Excelo = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel;
using Microsoft.Office.Interop;
using System.Reflection;
using System.Globalization;

Then, I start my excel file:
private void sacConsulPend_GenRemito()
{   // DB
    string conn = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["conn"].ConnectionString;
    DataSet dsRemito = new DataSet();
    DataTable dtCons = new DataTable();

A: You could use the (official) OpenXML SDK that is intended for scenarios like yours. It doesn't allow you to actually calculate and run functions in the server environment but its good for creating and manipulating workbooks. Download
However, the OpenXML SDK is not everyone's favorite since it requires some learning and at times a lot of code to achieve some simple things.
Luckily there are many other libraries that allow creating XLS/X files without Office like the ExcelLibrary or its successor EEPlus, or NPOI (see johnleniel), and many commercial third-party components.
I could imagine that a dedicated reporting component like Crystal Reports (that also exports to XLS/X) could also be of great use for you.

A: This is my code now, Using EEPlus It's not finished, but works, creating one file in server side, after that, I download the same created file.

Remembrance Sunday at St Paul's
On Sunday 12th November, Her Excellency Kate Smith CMG, British Ambassador to Greece, together with several other Ambassadors and Diplomatic Dignitaries, attended the Annual Service of Remembrance at St Paul's Church.
A wreath of Poppies was laid upon the Altar at the start of the service which included the hymns "Praise my soul", "Eternal Father strong to save", "Blest are the pure in heart", "O God our help in ages past", and "Now thank we all our God".
Captain Richard Blackwell RN, read from the Book of the Wisdom of Solomon, and Her Excellency the British Ambassador read from St Matthew's Gospel.
Fr Leonard gave a thought-provoking sermon on "Wisdom" (full text available here) after which the intercessions, lead by Lynn Stavrou, prayed for all those who had died in the Two World Wars and in the many wars since then.
At the end of the service Fr Leonard read the Ode to Remembrance, an extract of the poem "For the Fallen" by Laurence Binyon:
They shall grow not old as we that are left grow old; Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
This was followed by a 2 minutes' silence after which the National Anthem of Great Britain was sung.
Before the Altar party and the dignitaries filed out, Captain Richard Blackwell quoted the celebrated epitaph by John Maxwell Edmonds:
When you go home tell them of us and say,
For your tomorrow we gave our today
An outdoor Service of Remembrance was later held at Alimos War Cemetery in Phaliro. At the cemetery representatives of the Anglican, Greek Evangelical and Greek Orthodox Churches participated in the Service, lead by Fr. Leonard, the Anglican Chaplain. Many Ambassadors and other senior diplomats laid wreaths on behalf of their countries. Readers and some of the music was provided by students from St. Catherine's British School and members of the British Embassy. The National Anthems of Great Britain and Greece were sung. Lt. General Florus, who took the salute, was the senior member of the Hellenic Armed Forces at the ceremony.

Pimento Cheese Toasts with Bacon Jam | The Local Palate | The Local Palate is the South's premier food culture publication.
To assemble: Toast bread. Once toasted, use a small biscuit cutter to punch out bite-sized rounds. Assemble by topping the toasted round with a teaspoon of pimento cheese, then a small dollop of bacon jam.
For pimento cheese: Place half the cheddar into the large bowl of a mixer with cream cheese, mayonnaise, garlic powder, cayenne, onion powder, jalapeño, and diced pimentos. Beat at medium speed with paddle attachment until thoroughly combined. Add the remaining cheddar and more mayonnaise if needed. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add hot sauce if desired.
Cut bacon into 1-inch pieces. In a heavy-bottomed pan over medium-low heat, cook bacon, stirring regularly until crispy. Drain off halfthe bacon fat and reserve for future use. Add onions and garlic to pan with remaining fat and cook until onions begin to caramelize, about 10 minutes. Add remaining ingredients. Reduce heat to simmer, cover, and cook for 30 to 45 minutes. Stir occasionally, adding water if mixture becomes too thick.
When bacon is tender, remove from heat and cool for 30 minutes. Transfer bacon mixture to a food processor and pulse in batches to desired consistency (Wight prefers it slightly chunky).

"Bark of Night is a treat, especially for those who love thrillers and dogs." — Associated Press
The next novel in David Rosenfelt's witty, heartfelt mystery series featuring lawyer Andy Carpenter and his faithful golden retriever, Tara.
When defense lawyer Andy Carpenter's veterinarian asks to speak to him privately at the checkup of his golden retriever, Tara, the last thing Andy expects is Truman. Tiny, healthy, French bulldog Truman was dropped off days ago with instructions to be euthanized by a man everyone thought was his owner. But now the owner is nowhere to be found.
Andy is furious. Who would want to euthanize a perfectly healthy dog with no explanation? He is willing to whisk Truman away to the Tara Foundation, the dog-rescue organization which is Andy's true passion. They will find a home for Truman. But that's not all the vet tells Andy. Thanks to Truman's chip, it's discovered that the man wasn't Truman's owner at all . . . Truman's real owner has been murdered.
It's now up to Andy – with help from his loyal sidekick Tara, Truman and the rest of the gang – to solve this case. In the latest in the popular Andy Carpenter mystery series, David Rosenfelt's charmingly clever wit and love of dogs are back and better than ever.
DAVID ROSENFELT is the Edgar-nominated and Shamus Award-winning author of more than twenty Andy Carpenter novels, including One Dog Night, Collared, and Deck the Hounds; its spinoff series, The K-Team; the Doug Brock thriller series, which starts with Fade to Black; and stand-alone thrillers including Heart of a Killer and On Borrowed Time.
Rosenfelt and his wife live in Maine with an ever-changing pack of rescue dogs. Their epic cross-country move with 25 of these dogs, culminating in the creation of the Tara Foundation, is chronicled in Dogtripping.
"One of the best hooks ever by an author who specializes in them . . . Even dog haters should lap it up." – Kirkus Reviews
"Rosenfelt does a great job of unfolding an intricate plot . . . Andy is a smart, witty, relatable lead with a lot of heart, and he and his cohorts are a pleasure to spend time with. This is a treat for mystery readers and dog lovers." – Publishers Weekly
"Growing weary of the detective hero with a wrecked marriage, a botched career, and a drinking problem? Try Rosenfelt's series hero, Andy Carpenter, who is probably as close to Lord Peter Wimsey as the modern American crime genre can get." — Booklist
"I love the Andy Carpenter Mystery novels. They're so easy to read . . . They have really fun characters. And they have dogs. All this makes these books so much fun to read each time . . . If you've never read one of these Andy Carpenter books jump right in. Each novel reads like a stand-alone book and you get enough back information to understand who is who and what's going on."— Red Carpet Crash
"Bark of Night is a terrific read for any mystery lover who enjoy twists, turns, and surprises on every page!" —Suspense Magazine
"Look no further for a wagalicious summer read." — Dogster Magazine

The Michelangelo was listed as one of the top 5 hardware EQ's in a review at Pro Tools Expert!
The most common statement from mixing and mastering engineers who use the Michelangelo?
Housed in a 2U rack unit, the Michelangelo is an all tube, stereo EQ that is completely focused on sonic beauty! This EQ is certainly not aimed at precisely targeting certain frequencies, for it is intended to be a broad strokes EQ that also acts as a harmonics generator. This one of a kind EQ is at home during any phase of the music production process (tracking, mixing, or mastering), for the overall sonic signature it leaves, coupled with its complete ease of use, is rivaled by none!
The Michelangelo is a discrete, Class A, all tube, full stereo unit, with Jensen transformers in and out.
-	The BYPASS switches allow the user to completely disengage the Michelangelo at any time in order to properly A/B a mix (true bypass).
- The TRIM control allows the user to match the volume coming from the Michelangelo to any desired level.
- Left and Right CALIBRATION is used to gain match the Left and Right signals, accounting for any volume discrepancies encountered. Interestingly enough, these calibration controls can also be used to alter the tonal response of the Michelangelo if so desired. For example, it is possible to bring the Calibration volumes up and the Trim down, resulting in the Michelangelo driving the signal harder than normal, increasing harmonic content.
- The AGGRESSION control alters the drive in the circuit, allowing you to push the tubes for extra saturation.
- The LOW, MID, and HIGH controls manipulate the three EQ bands, but in a way that adds more dynamic, harmonic content the higher the EQ is set. Take note that the Mid control covers a massive amount of territory while the Low and High controls are narrower by comparison.
- The AIR control boosts the ultra high frequencies and is typically a favorite control in this unit.
- LOW SHIFT changes the Low control in order to target all frequencies below 150hz or 80hz.
- MID SHIFT alters the response of the Low and Mid controls, essentially assigning the low mids to either control.
- HIGH SHIFT changes the High control in order to target the frequencies above 1khz or 2khz.
- The VINTAGE switch toggles between a "modern" mode (think more hifi), and a "vintage" mode (darker, older sounding).
- LoZ/HiZ alters the output impedance of the Michelangelo in order to dial in either a more colored tone (HiZ) which ill interact with gear following it in your chain, or a more clean tone (LoZ) which is largely unaffected by gear following it in your chain.
The Standard Michelangelo can also be ordered with the ranges of the EQ controls (Low, Mid, High, and Air) limited to approximately 1/3 of the normal gain range. This modification can often be more useful in a mastering context whereas the full range is often better in a tracking or mixing context.
- Aggression actually remains unchanged, other than becoming stepped.
- Low, Mid, High controls have been altered to offer +/- 6bd range (12db swing), with roughly .5db steps.
- Air offers a 6db boost with roughly .5db steps.
