Restoration of the National Mall Turf Reaches Major Milestone
Mike Litterst
Updated August 8, 2016 August 8, 2016 |	Roads, Trails and Grounds
Five year turf project nears completion
The restoration of the turf on the National Mall neared completion on Wednesday, August 3, when the final roll of new sod was laid. This marked the last of more than 805,000 square feet of sod (18.5 acres) laid down as part of the five-year, $40 million restoration of the turf on the National Mall.
The sod itself was grown at and shipped from Tuckahoe Turf Farm in Hammonton, N.J., which grows turf for golf courses, college campuses and sports stadiums, including Nationals Park and Camden Yards in Baltimore.
Begun in 2011 and completed in phases between 3rd Street and 14th Street, the turf restoration project has included excavation and removal of 4-5' of damaged soil; installation of irrigation drainage and four 250,000 gallon cisterns to collect and allow reuse of up to a million gallons of storm water for irrigation of the turf; installation of a compaction-resistant engineered soil, similar in composition and quality to that found on athletic fields; regarding the panels to improve drainage, and sodding with advanced varieties of tall fescue and bluegrass.
Although the laying of the sod marks substantial completion of the project, the area will remain closed to allow the sod to take root, and for the replacement of walkways, benches and other infrastructure that was removed from the panels during the construction. The work will be completed and the panels will open to public use prior to the January, 2017 presidential inauguration.

Dr. Kathy Hoyt is a Licensed Psychologist with graduate degrees in Clinical, Developmental and Environmental Psychology. Her expertise draws on decades of experience doing personal and career counseling for children, teens, adults, and business leaders, along with consulting experience in business, educational, and clinical settings plus teaching & research experience at 9 universities. She has lived and raised a family in Bend since 1997.
I came to this work after observing a dramatic drop across the last 2 decades in creative thinking skills, spontaneity, and passion in my university students as well as the career and family counseling clients in my practice. Many people struggle with lopsided minds — utilizing only logic, facts, and data — ignoring the power of imagination, intuition, risk-taking, and passion. So when they need to make important problem-solving decisions, crucial skills were undeveloped and unavailable, and lead to poor decisions, stuckness, and despair. Critical thinking must be balanced with creative thinking for a happy, fulfilled mind and an authentic life. Fuse nurtures creative strategies and opens the space in each of us where intellect can collide with passion and logic welcomes spontaneity.
Fuse challenges the notion that you're "not creative" or "not logical" through playful workshops combining fun, experiential methods with small group exercises and at-home practice while using research on thinking, brain health, career and business strategies.
If you are interested in having Dr. Hoyt speak to your group or business as a lecturer without a workshop, then please contact her directly to share your ideas and needs.

UK CHARTS: MW3 is No.1; Biggest UK week ever; Falls short of Black Ops
MCV Staff 14th November 2011	Business
Activision's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has assumed its pre-determined position at the top of the UKIE GfK Chart-Track All Formats Top 40.
It helped the UK games sector to its biggest weekly return ever, making 120.8m, beating previous record holder Week 45 in 2010.
MW3 revenue for the first five days is up 1.5 per cent on Call of Duty: Black Ops, though the unit sales are actually 1.6 per cent lower than its predecessor. *
Saying that, the game still claims the title of the highest grossing opening week of all time for any entertainment title, beating the combined opening weekend box office sales of the last four Harry Potter films combined.
Add the opening week revenues of Black Ops and that represents a bigger return that all eight Harry Potter films combined.
Xbox 360 again emerges as the lead format, claiming 59 per cent of sales – that's up on the 55 per cent it saw with Black Ops.
Outside of Call of Duty fever, Bethesda's Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim debuts in second place, delivering the publisher's biggest ever opening week ahead of Fallout: New Vegas and becoming the fifth biggest launch of the year.
Mind Candy's new DS title Moshi Monsters: Moshling Zoo also debuts in the Top Ten.
Here's the full UK Top 20 for the week ending November 12th:
1. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (Activision)
2. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (Bethesda)
3. Battlefield 3 (EA)
4. FIFA 12 (EA)
5. Just Dance 3 (Ubisoft)
6. Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception (Sony)
7. Moshi Monsters: Moshling Zoo (Mind Candy)
8. Batman: Arkham City (Warner)
9. Zumba Fitness (505 Games)
10. Wii Party (Nintendo)
11. Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure (Activision)
12. Forza Motorposrt 4 (Microsoft)
13. Michael Jackson: The Experience (Ubisoft)
14. Football Manager 2012 (Sega)
15. Kinect Sports: Season Two (Microsoft)

18. PES 2012 (Konami)
19. Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn (Ubisoft)
20. F1 2011 (Codemasters)
* Chart-Track has asked all publications to remove the specific unit sales and revenue figures published for the game as they apparently "included in error an unverified figure".

You have found an awesome game and you want to take pictures of moments or items you have collected in your game that you want to remember, but you have no idea how to take screenshots. Don't fret! Here's an easy way to do it.
There are a lot of technical things you can do to make your screenshots better, but for now getting the screenshot is most important. It can differ between computers, but the one I am most familiar with is "Print Screen". Find a shot you want to take, press "Print Screen" (sometimes marked as "PrtScn"), and move onto the next step.
Once you have pressed your button of total screenshot awesomeness, go into the art program on your computer (I use Paint, but you can use whatever is available on your computer) and press the "Ctrl" and "V" keys together and the picture should show up. It will be everything that was on your screen when you pressed "Print Screen". Now find the crop button or icon, click it and drag it from a corner to where you want the picture to be. Then press "Ctrl" and "X" and move on to the next step.
Select (goes along with crop).
Finally, getting the screenshot ready to save.
Once you have pressed Ctrl + X, there should be a white blank where the part of the picture you cropped was. Open another window of your art program. Then press Ctrl + V. The picture you cropped should appear.
You don't want your chat window in your screenshot, right? Hiding your UI (user interface) helps with that, though not all games have this feature.
First, find the options window. Then look for "Controls" or sometimes "Key bindings". Look for "Hide interface" or "Toggle interface."
Angling can make pictures look very nice! Finding your camera controls can make the pictures you take look nicer.
Go into your options window again and go back to the controls. Find something like "Camera right" or "Camera down." Then try them out.
The knowledge has been passed on to you! Try taking a few screenshots of random things to practice a little!

Adam Mickiewicz University (Polish: Uniwersytet im. Adama Mickiewicza) is one of the major Polish universities, opened on May 7, 1919 in Poznań. It is named after the Polish poet Adam Mickiewicz.
Adam Mickiewicz University - one of the major Polish universities, opened on May 7, 1919. For the first 20 years it educated students in law, economy, medicine, humanities, mathematics, natural sciences, agriculture and forestry.
Since the moment of its foundation many distinguished scholars from all over the world as well as many outstanding personalities from politics and the fine arts have received the Honorary Degree of "Doctor Honoris Causa" of the University. The few names that ought to be mentioned in this respect are: Marshall Józef Piłsudski, Marshall Ferdinand Foch, Maria Skłodowska-Curie, Ignacy Paderewski, Roman Dmowski, Witold Hensel.
On May 7, 1919, which marked the 400th anniversary of the foundation of The Lubrański Academy, the Commencement Ceremony of the university took place.
In 1920 famous sociologist Florian Znaniecki founded the first Polish department of sociology at the university. It was one of the first such departments in Europe.
The University was closed by the Nazis in 1939, and reopened as a German university in 1941, which lasted until 1944. The Polish university reopened in much smaller form only after the end of WWII. Until 1955 it was officially named "Uniwersytet Poznański" (University of Poznań). However, since the year 1955 the University has been named after Adam Mickiewicz, a Polish Romantic poet of the first half of the 19th century. According to reform, in 1950, the Medical Faculty with the section of Dentistry and the Faculty of Pharmacy of University of Poznań were detached to form an independent school, Poznań University of Medical Sciences.
Among its most famous graduates are the mathematicians who broke the Enigma machine: Marian Rejewski, Henryk Zygalski, and Jerzy Różycki.
While many building of Adam Mickiewicz University still remain scattered in areas near the city centre and older boroughs, the entire school is being moved to the Campus in Morasko. As of 2006, Faculties of Physics, Mathematics and Computer Science, Chemistry, Geographical and Geological Science have already shifted to the new location.

While I had my Sunday off at the flea market, Hubby took the kids "surfing"
with some good friends of ours!
I was so glad she took pictures since I missed out!
You can check her out here!
I think I am going to miss summer!
what was one ofyour most favorite things you did this summer?
Looks like a great day! I love summer so much, but I love fall too. It's a toss up!
Summer is my favorite time of year. I love the hot weather and the long days of sunlight. We went to the beach as a family. Wonderful!
I am sad to see it go! It took a long time coming to the northeast! I love doing without schedules, hats, coats, gloves...and it means that time is marching on!
Our summer has been so unseasonably cool....i think I am gonna miss it too. But fall is my favorite by far!
We went to the beach and lake a few times this summer, was so much fun. Back to the lake this weekend, and beach in October. It's not over yet!!
Looks like fun! I will miss summer, but am so looking forward to fall when I can bake sweet treats while it is raining and overcast outside...my favorite thing we did this summer was take a trip to Sun River, Oregon....such a beautiful place and so much to do as a family!!
I hate to see Summer leave...I want to swim and gaze at the stars, chase fireflies and dig my feet in the sand everyday!
awesome shots ~ I am glad she took pictures too! A day at the lake can never be wrong ~ can it?

Justia › US Law › US Case Law › US Supreme Court › Volume 223 › United States v. Ellicott
United States v. Ellicott, 223 U.S. 524 (1912)
United States v. Ellicott
Argued December 7, 8, 1911
Decided February 26, 1912
The general rule governing appeals is applicable to appeal from the Court of Claims.
A judgment is not generally treated as final until a motion for new trial or rehearing, which has been entertained by the court, has been disposed of; in such a case, the time for appeal runs from the date of such disposition. Kingman v. Western Manufacturing Co., 170 U. S. 675.
When there is an irreconcilable conflict between essential provisions of a contract for building and the specifications, and the latter cannot be ignored, the contract is void for uncertainty, and unenforceable.
Where a bid has been accepted for government work after the advertisement necessary to give it validity, and the final contract contains specifications materially lessening the work and at variance with the terms of the contract as advertised, the contractor cannot recover damages because the government abrogates the contract;
Page 223 U. S. 525
if the specifications are not binding on the government, the contractor has no basis for recovery, and if they are binding, the contract varies from the one advertised for, and has no validity, and so held as to a bid for barge for the Panama Canal Commission.
44 Ct.Cl. 127 and 45 Ct.Cl. 469, reversed.
The facts, which involve the construction of a contract for dredges for the Panama Canal and the liability of the United States for damages for abrogation of the same, are stated in the opinion.
APPEAL FROM THE COURT OF CLAIMS
MR. CHIEF JUSTICE WHITE delivered the opinion of the Court.
Whether or not the United States is responsible in damages because of a refusal to permit the carrying out of an alleged contract made with a copartnership, the Ellicott Machine Company, who are appellees, for the construction for the Isthmian Canal Company of six steel dump barges is the issue here required to be decided. From a judgment for $10,000 entered in the Court of Claims in favor of the Ellicott Machine Company because of the refusal referred to, the United States took this appeal.
It will conduce to a clear understanding of the controversy to fully summarize the facts found below, and we proceed to do so.
After two unsuccessful attempts to procure satisfactory proposals for the construction and delivery of the six steel dump barges, the Isthmian Canal Commission, by advertisement and specifications dated May 29, 1906, invited the proposals which culminated in the making of the alleged contract. One of the clauses of the advertisement reads as follows:
"Preliminary inspection will be made at the point of manufacture or purchase to determine whether the material meets the requirements set forth in the specifications, and final inspection will be made at the point of delivery as above."
"* * * *"
In the specifications, among other things, it was recited as follows:
"The following specifications and requirements are general only as indicating the class of construction desired. "
"Barges of heavy construction for rough service, built in accordance with best modern marine practice, are desired."
"Bidders will be required to submit with their proposals plans in sufficient detail to show the proposed size of members and details of construction."
"The breadth of the barges should not be less than 25 feet nor more than 32 feet. They should have sufficient depth and length to carry a full load of sand on a draft of not more than 8 feet, and with not less than 30' freeboard when loaded. They will be rectangular in plan, with rake at each end about 11' long. . . ."
As shown by an excerpt in the margin, * the weight and
dimensions of the structural materials were prescribed with much detail under the head of "Framing." In reply to this advertisement, appellee submitted a proposal to construct the desired barges, "subject to specifications of circular 310-C, with such modifications as are here shown on drawing No. 2105, dated June 7, submitted herewith." The plan referred to, as so submitted, showed the outline of a barge 101 feet 4 inches long, 30 feet wide, and 10 feet 6 inches in height, and a note on it read as follows:
"Capacity of bins -- 350 cu. yards. Maximum loaded draft when carrying 350 cu. yds. of material weighing 3240 lbs. per cu. yard, not to exceed 8'0'."
After examination of the bids by F. B. Maltby, Division Engineer on the Canal Zone, that official returned the bids to the general purchasing officer of the Commission
in Washington, accompanied by a letter dated June 26, 1906. Therein, among other things, Mr. Maltby said:
"It is noted that the drawing submitted by the Ellicott Machine Works does not show any detail, as required by the specifications. It is assumed, however (and we should insist on it), that the framing will be in strict accordance with our specifications."
A sketch was enclosed "showing the desired arrangement of the hinges on the hopper doors and the method of securing timber lining to hoppers," and various suggestions were made explanatory of the details shown on this sketch. Thereupon D. W. Ross, purchasing officer, prepared and transmitted to the Ellicott firm a draft of contract for the construction and delivery of the barges, but it was returned with the suggestion that article 1 thereof be rewritten so as to provide for the construction of
"six steel dump barges in accordance with specifications contained in circular No. 310-C of the Isthmian Canal Commission, dated May 29, 1906, with such modifications as are shown on drawing No. 2105, dated June 7, 1906, and subject to such amendments as to details of hinges, hoisting gear, and method of securing timber lining to hoppers as are described by letter of F. B. Maltby, Division Engineer, dated June 26, 1906, with the accompanying sketch, a copy of which specifications, drawing, letter, and sketch are attached herewith and form part of this contract."
In the letter returning said draft of contract, it was stated that
"our drawing No. 2105 was not intended to show working details, but solely to limit the conditions of displacements, load, and draft. As long as these are maintained, we shall be pleased to follow such reasonable design of working details in arrangement and distribution of material as Mr. Maltby or his inspector may require."
Claimant also, at the request of said Ross, addressed
a letter, dated July 27, 1906, to Maltby, in which it submitted
"print #2105 revised July 27, specifying details as called for in your letter of June 26, 1906, of hinges, hoisting gear, and method of securing timber lining to hoppers."
In said letter, this statement also was made:
"We have also inserted on the drawing a schedule of displacement, load, and draft, showing a total net weight for the barge of 260,000 pounds. You will note that this corresponds with the note shown on print originally submitted with bid, and this weight may be distributed in any way your representative may desire."
The alleged contract, the subject of this controversy, was then executed, F. P. Shonts, Chairman of the Commission, signing for the party of the first part. Following a recital that
"the Isthmian Canal Commission, for and on behalf of the United States of America, and the said Ellicott Machine Company, had covenanted and agreed, to and with each other, as follows."
The first article of the contract was inserted, reading as follows:
"Article 1. That the said Ellicott Machine Company shall construct, erect, and deliver to the Isthmian Canal Commission at Baltimore, Maryland, six (6) steel dump barges in accordance with specifications contained in circular 310-C of the Isthmian Canal Commission, dated May 29th, 1906, with such modifications as are shown on drawing No. 2105, dated June 7th, 1906, and revised July 27th, 1906, outlined in letter of Ellicott Machine Company dated July 27th, 1906, and subject to such amendments as to details of hinges, hoisting gear, and method of securing timber lining to hoppers as are described by letter of F. B. Maltby, Division Engineer, dated June 26th, 1906, with accompanying sketch, copy of which specifications, drawing, letters, and sketch are attached hereto and form a part of this contract."
It was provided in article 3 as follows:
"Article 3. That the party of the first part, by its duly authorized agent, shall have the right to inspect at any time during the process of construction of these barges any and all material and workmanship used or to be used in said construction, and such inspection of said barges, and of the material used or to be used in the construction thereof, and of the workmanship thereon, may be made by the party of the first part or its duly authorized agent at any place where said materials may be found and at the place of construction of said barges. In addition to the above, when said barges, or either of them, are pronounced by the party of the second part to be completed and ready for final inspection, such inspection may be made by the party of the first part, by its duly authorized agent at the place or places where such barges, or either of them, have been constructed, such inspection being for the purpose of determining whether the same, or either of them, meet the requirements set forth in the letters, specifications, and blueprint mentioned in article 1 hereof, and all of said inspections, whether preliminary or final, the party of the first part, by its duly authorized agent, shall have the right to reject any and all material used or to be used in the construction of said barges or either of them, or in the workmanship thereon, when, in the judgment of the party of the first part, by its duly authorized agent, the same or any part thereof does not conform to the requirements above mentioned."
In article 8, among other things, it was provided as follows:
"The barges herein contracted for shall be completed in accordance with the specifications, letter, and blue print annexed hereto and made a part hereof. . . ."
By article 9, it was agreed that payment would be made of the stipulated price for the six barges "upon their construction and delivery in accordance with the terms of this contract and the papers attached hereto."
It was provided in the last article of the contract as follows:
"Article 12. If at any time during the prosecution of this work, it shall be found advantageous or necessary to make any change or modification in said barges, or either of them, and this change or modification should involve such alteration in the specifications as to character, quantity, and quality, whether of labor or material, as would either increase or diminish the cost of the work, then such change or modification must be agreed upon in writing by the contracting parties, the agreement setting forth fully the reasons for such change and giving clearly the quantities and prices both of material and labor thus substituted for those specified in the original contract, and before taking effect must be approved by the chairman of the Isthmian Canal Commission: Provided, that no payment shall be made unless such supplemental or modified agreement was signed and approved before the obligations arising from such modification were incurred."
Two days after the execution of the contract, claimants presented to the government inspector of dredges a list of materials intended to be used by them in the construction of said barges, but upon examination of said list it was found by said inspector of dredges that the dredges which the claimants proposed to construct were different from those described in circular letter and specifications 310-C, set forth in the petition, the principal component parts or members being reduced in weight, size, and power of resistance, and thereupon the same was disapproved by the officers of the government. Demand was thereupon made that the claimants should adhere to the original specifications, which they refused to do, and, as a result, the United States abrogated the contract.
Soon afterwards, this suit was commenced. By the petition, judgment for $30,000 was demanded
"gains and profits which claimants would have made had they constructed the barges in accordance with the contract, as the terms of that instrument were construed by the contracting firm."
The Court of Claims, as already stated, gave judgment against the United States for the sum of $10,000. There is no statement in the findings as to the loss sustained by the claimants. Evidently, however, the conclusion to award the sum stated was based upon the hypothesis mentioned in the closing paragraph of the opinion of the court below, reading as follows:
"In consideration of all of the facts in the case, and in view of the difference between the cost of doing certain work and what claimants were to receive for it, making reasonable deduction of the less time engaged and release from the care, cost, risk, and responsibility attending a full execution of the contract, the court decides that claimants are entitled to recover as profits the sum of $10,000, and accordingly judgment against the defendants for said amount is hereby ordered."
A motion to dismiss the appeal first requires attention. The facts are as follows:
The judgment against the United States was entered on May 18, 1908. Eighty-four days afterwards, on August 10, 1908, defendant filed a motion for a new trial. This motion was argued and submitted on November 23, 1908, and was overruled on January 4, 1909, in the term which began on December 7, 1908. Seventeen days afterwards, on January 21, 1909, the United States filed a motion to amend the findings of fact; on February 8, 1909, the motion was argued and submitted, and on February 15, 1909, the motion was overruled in part and allowed in part. Ten days afterwards, on February 25, 1909, the United States made application for and gave notice of an appeal "from the judgment rendered in the above-entitled cause on the fourth day of January, 1909."
The grounds for the motion to dismiss are these: (a) that the appeal was not taken within ninety days after judgment (Rev.Stat. § 708), and (b) that the appeal prayed for and allowed was not from the judgment of January 4, 1909, "but was merely from the order overruling the motion for a new trial."
The motion is without merit. The general rule governing the subject of prosecuting error or taking appeals from final judgments or decrees is, we think, applicable to judgments or decrees of the Court of Claims, and that rule treats a judgment or decree properly entered in the cause as not final for the purposes of appeal until a motion for a new trial or a petition for rehearing, as the case may be, when entertained by the court, has been disposed of, and the time for appeal begins to run from the date of such disposition. Kingman v. Western Manufacturing Company, 170 U. S. 675, 170 U. S. 680-681. It is, we think, also manifest that the appeal was taken upon the hypothesis just stated, that the judgment entered did not become a final judgment for the purposes of appeal until the motion for a new trial had been disposed of. Texas & Pacific Railway Company v. Murphy, 111 U. S. 488.
Coming to the merits. The claimant in effect reiterates in the argument at bar the position taken by the court below in the opinions by it rendered, reported in 45 Ct.Cl. 469 and 44 Ct.Cl. 127. We shall therefore dispose of the case by reviewing the opinions of the court below.
In the opinion delivered upon the original hearing, it was observed that
"the litigation in this case resulted from what seems to have been an apparent misunderstanding by the agents of the defendants as to certain changes in the terms of an original advertisement for bids for the construction of the said six steel dump barges of a specified size, strength, and weight,"
etc. It was, however, held that the contract was clear and unambiguous in terms, and that the evidence
"revealed a degree of negligence
on the part of the agents of the defendants from which they could not be allowed to extricate themselves by the abrogation of a duly executed contract in order to shift from themselves responsibility."
The claimants, it was said, in their second bid, made part of the contract, had in detail specifically set forth the strength, weight, and measurement of the barges, and that
"the only difference in the barges which the claimant proposed in its contract to construct under its bid was a difference in weight of framing and plates from those contained in the advertisement of the defendant's circular No. 310-C."
The claimants, however, it was further observed, had called the attention of the defendant to the great difference between its then bid and the prior bid, and before the execution of the contract had noted on the blueprint submitted by them and attached to the contract "the net weight of the barges," and stated that "this weight was to be distributed in such manner as the defendants might instruct." The printed specifications, it was held, although made part of the contract, could not govern, since the letter of claimants of July 27 and the blueprint would have to be entirely ignored. It was also said that the materials proposed to be used by the claimants in the construction of the barges, although "reduced in weight, size, and power of resistance" from those prescribed by the specifications, did not constitute
"a substitution of different strength and material for those provided in the specifications of the defendant as to the manner of constructing the barges,"
but was "rather a modification thereof."
We have, however, reached the conclusion, as well from the fact that the specifications were expressly made part of the contract as from various provisions of the contract which we have excerpted, that it cannot in reason be held that the specifications must be ignored, and as they cannot therefore be treated as having been abrogated,
it inevitably follows that the alleged contract should have been held void for uncertainty.
It is, we think, in reason, impossible to construe the "modifications" referred to in the first article of the contract as having relation to the dimensions, etc., of the material so specifically described in the portions of the specifications embraced under the heading "Framing," since, in that event, a clear inconsistency would arise between the terms of that article and the terms of the specifications, also constituting part of the contract. And although this conclusion is, we think, so certain as to require no additional demonstration than the mere consideration of the terms of the two provisions, its conclusiveness is an addition convincingly shown by an analysis of the contract as a whole. The provision of article 3 in regard to the right of the government at any time during the progress of the work on the barges to inspect all the material furnished clearly imports that the contract had precisely settled the character of such material. So also does the provision in the same article in regard to final inspection, wherein it is provided:
"Such inspection being for the purpose of determining whether the same, or either of them, meet the requirements set forth in the letters, specifications, and blueprints mentioned in article 1 hereof, and all of said inspections, whether preliminary or final, the party of the first part, by its duly authorized agent, shall have the right to reject any and all material used or to be used in the construction of said barges, or either of them, or in the workmanship thereon, when, in the judgment of the party of the first part, by its duly authorized agent, the same or any part thereof does not conform to the requirements above mentioned."
Again, prominence is given in article 8 to the fact that, in the construction of the barges, the specifications are to be given effect, the provision being that
"the barges herein contracted for shall be completed in accordance with the specifications,
letter, and blueprint annexed hereto and made a part hereof. . . ."
So also, in article 9, payment is to be made only when the barges have been constructed and delivered "in accordance with the terms of this contract and the papers attached hereto," of which papers the specifications formed a part. Article 12 also clearly negates the conception that it could have been intended by the parties that material parts of the specifications should be treated as not forming a portion of the contract, although declared, by its terms, to be a part thereof, since the binding efficacy of the specifications as to material is therein emphasized. The article in substance provided that no change or modification
"involving an alteration in the specifications as to character, quantity, and quality, whether of labor or material, as would either increase or diminish the cost of the work"
should be made unless
"agreed upon in writing by the contracting parties, the agreement setting forth fully the reasons for such change, and giving clearly the quantities and price both of material and labor thus substituted for those specified in the original contract,"
etc. Manifestly, this article was drawn upon the conception not that the contract did not, but that it did specifically, provide as to what material should be furnished for the work, and no other source could be resorted to for light as to the material contracted to be supplied than the specifications which it is now urged ought by construction to be removed from the contract.
Thus, viewing the contract as a whole and determining that the specifications, so far as the "framing" schedule is concerned, should have been treated as unaffected by the provisions of article 1, it is evident that there was a conflict so irreconcilable between essential provisions of the assumed contract as to render it impossible to enforce it as an agreement between the parties. This result of the absolutely antagonistic and destructive character of essential provisions of the contract, one upon the other, can
only be escaped by indulging in one of two hypotheses -- either that the terms of the advertisement and specifications as incorporated in the assumed contract overshadowed and virtually destroyed the proposals resulting from the bid of the claimant, which also was incorporated in the contract, or, conversely, that the proposals which the bid embraced had the effect of setting at naught the provisions of the specifications. But if the first assumption were indulged in, it would clearly result that there was no right to recover, since that right is based upon the theory that the specifications are not binding, and need not be complied with, and if the second were indulged, the same result would follow, since it would then come to pass that the contract was so unresponsive to and destructive of the advertised proposals as to nullify them, and therefore cause it to result that the contract was one made without the competitive bidding which was necessary to give it validity.
Under the circumstances, therefore, the court erred in treating the contract as a valid agreement and in awarding judgment against the United States.
Judgment reversed.
"FRAMING"
"Floor beams forward and aft of the hoppers and in the rake should not be less than 10' deep, and extended in one piece to the turn of the bilges. They will be spaced 24' center to center. Frames to be not less than 3 1/2' x 5 3/8,' angles overlapping the floors not less than 18', and connected with them and to floor beams with proper gusset plates. Bilges to be of as short radius as it is practicable to bend the angles and plates."
"In addition to the transverse bulkheads mentioned above, there will be a water-tight bulkhead at each end of each rake."
"Transverse water-tight bulkheads will be made of 10.2-pound plate with double riveted lap joints, stiffened with vertical angle bars 3' x 3' x 5 1/6,' spaced 2' apart, except that the plates forming the ends of the hoppers will be of 21-pound plate, stiffened with 4' x 4' x 3/8' angle bars, spaced 2' apart."
"In the space forward and aft of the hoppers, there should be a central longitudinal bulkhead of 10.2-pound plate, fastened at the top of the floor beams and deck beams by 4' x 4' x 3/8' angle; it will be stiffened by vertical 3' x 3' x 5 1/16' angles, spaced 2' apart. This bulkhead should extend from the hoppers to each end of the barges."
"In addition to this bulkhead, there will be 2 longitudinal lattice trusses, one on each side, midway from the center bulkhead to the side of the hull. They will have top and bottom cord of 3' x 3' x 5/16' angles, riveted to each floor and deck beam, lattice bars to be 3' x 3' x 5/16' angles made in double panels, and joined top and bottom with proper gusset plates with not less than 3 rivets in each landing. These trusses will extend from the hoppers to the rake."
"In the rake, there should be a 3' x 3' x 3/8' angle stanchion secured to each deck beam and floor timber on line with the said trusses."
"Deck beams to be of 5' x 3/8' Z bars spaced one to each frame, each beam to be attached to its frame by 5/16' gusset."
"Gunwales to be not less than 4 1/2' x 4 1/2' x 7/16' angle running inside the side plating and below the deck."
"The hull plating should be 21-pound on the bottom; bilges should be 21 pounds; the side plating may be of 18-pound plate and in no more than 2 streaks."
"The deck should have a checkered stringer streak on each side 30' wide and about 7/16' thick; remaining deck may be of 15-pound plating."
"All plating to be worked 'in' and 'out' on longitudinal streaks, longitudinal laps to be double riveted. All girth seams to be double riveted to butt straps."
"There should be a nosing or fender streak of 8' x 8' yellow pine supported by 4' x 4' x 3/8' angles top and bottom. This nosing should extend entirely about the barge. On each side of the full length there should be a second fender streak of the same section about 3' below the deck."

In November 2013 the LoCloud technical team has produced a new report offering an analysis of the technical aspects of the LoCloud's user requirements that have been collected through a series of workshops and surveys.
The report provides key information about users' profiles, their needs and content. A number of user profiles have been defined, taking into account important characteristics such as the type of collections (e.g. archaeological collections, paintings, drawings, family libraries, maps etc.) and of digital content (image, movie, audio and multimedia content, textual digitised content, etc), expertise in IT, librarianship, information science, or cultural heritage documentation, awareness of metadata and content availability through Europeana.
As expected, LoCloud content providers hold very diverse types of content as well as a variety of metadata schemas used to describe this content. By the end of the project Europeana will gain a substantial number of varied and interesting collections. However, this also implies a number of challenges for the LoCloud team, such as the method of ingestion of metadata from primary collections into Europeana. In this connection, the team has already defined a set of workflows able to adapt to the type of content provider, services to be utilised and the ingestion point.

Carl Wilhelm Christian Malchin (14 May 1838, Kröpelin - 23 January 1923, Schwerin) was a German landscape painter and art conservator.

Life
His father was a member of the Mecklenburg legislature. He attended the Realschule in Rostock, then was apprenticed to a surveyor in Schwaan. He aspired to be a shipbuilder, but was not sufficiently strong and robust for that type of work, so he remained with the surveyor for three more years as his assistant. At this time, he made the acquaintance of two young painters from a nearby art colony who encouraged him to develop an interest in painting.

From 1860 to 1862, he attended the Polytechnikum in Munich, ostensibly to study geodesy and engineering but, instead, he frequented the local artists' studios where he got to know Adolf Heinrich Lier and began taking lessons from one of Lier's friends. Nevertheless, he finished his course at the Polytechnikum and, after a short training period in Rostock, took the engineering exam. He then worked in the land surveying office of the Grand Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin and painted in his spare time.

His work attracted the attention of the Court Painter, Theodor Schloepke, who obtained a scholarship for him from Grand Duke Friedrich Franz II. He began his formal studies in 1873 at the Weimar Saxon-Grand Ducal Art School under Theodor Hagen.

Despite the scholarship, he experienced continuing financial problems. His paintings did not sell very well. Many were bought by the Grand Duke and his court for a nominal sum. Finally, in 1879, he was offered the position of art conservator and restorer for the Ducal collection. He was given a generous contract that allowed him plenty of space and time to pursue his own work. This freedom was used to travel extensively. The area around Ahrenshoop was especially inspiring to him.

In 1890, Grand Duke Friedrich Franz III appointed him a professor. After 1903, he lived in the village of Ostorf near Lake Schwerin. He retired in 1915 and was presented with the Knight's Cross of the Order of the Griffon. A proposed retrospective of his work had to be cancelled due to the war and was not presented until 1923, after his death. Approximately 260 of his paintings are in the possession of the  Staatliches Museum Schwerin. Ninety-two were destroyed during World War II. A street in Schwerin has been named after him.

Sony has introduced an update to its flagship APS-C camera series, the Alpha 6500. Featuring an impressive autofocus speed of 0.05 seconds, which they're calling the world's fastest, the a6500 shares its predecessor's 425 phase detection AF points, still the world's highest number of AF points on an interchangeable lens camera.
Also among the new Sony a6500 features is the ability to shoot continuously at 11fps, with continuous AF and exposure tracking for over 20 seconds – and up to 8fps when in live-view shooting mode, built for fast-moving subjects. Additionally, it includes silent shooting, Eye AF in AF-C mode, AF in focus magnifier modes, Expand Flexible Spot AF and more.
The a6500 features a 24.2MP Exmor CMOS sensor, that works together with a BIONZ X image processor and a newly developed front-end LSI to perform over ISO sensitivities of 100-51,200.
Without increasing body size from the a6300, Sony have also managed to implement in-body, 5-axis optical image stabilisation, which is a first for APS-C cameras.
Sony say the a6500 was designed with an emphasis on ease-in-use, with touch-focus now available through the now touch-sensitive LCD display, as well as using it to change focus while using the EVF – meaning users can control focus without having to take their eye off the shot.
Video capabilities include full 4K recording and, impressively, the fast hybrid AF will still work while shooting.
The Sony a6500 will be available in the US and Canada from November, and in Europe in December. The UK price will around £1500 body only.
Sony today introduced its new flagship APS-C sensor camera, the α6500 (model ILCE-6500). As the latest addition to Sony's line-up of award winning mirrorless cameras, the new α6500 shares the same unrivalled 4D FOCUS™ system as the α6300 camera, which can lock focus on a subject in as little as 0.05 seconds, the world's fastesti AF acquisition time. Also shared with the α6300, the new α6500 features 425 phase detection AF points that are densely positioned over nearly the entire image area – the world's highestii number of AF points on any interchangeable lens camera. The new model can shoot images at up to 11 frames per second with continuous autofocus and exposure tracking and up to 8 frames per second in a live-view shooting mode that makes it easy to track fast moving subjects, as it combines all of the benefits of an electronic viewfinder with the immediacy of an optical viewfinder.
The camera's 425 phase detection AF points, focusing tracking and accuracy are also available when using non-native A-mount lenses[v]with Sony's LA-EA3 mount adaptor. Additionally, it includes silent shooting, Eye AF in AF-C mode, AF in focus magnifier modes, Expand Flexible Spot AF and more.

Olympian Aaron Blunck finds peace after scary halfpipe crash
January 24, 2022 Editorial Board
ASPEN, Colo. — Six ribs were broken. His pelvis fractured. Kidney lacerated. Heart bruised.
Freestyle skier Aaron Blunck didn't know if he would make it – "Don't let me die," he told his coach at the bottom of the halfpipe – after bashing into the lip of the pipe 15 months ago.
But the whirr of the helicopter blades taking him to the hospital created a peaceful sensation — he was going to make it – and a swift realization: No longer would he take any moment for granted.
The crash in Switzerland during a training run on Oct. 13, 2020, was so severe that a doctor later told Blunck something that gave him chills – he was, indeed, really fortunate.
"I learned to just be thankful to take a breath of fresh air," said Blunck, who competed Sunday at the Winter X Games before heading to Beijing for the Winter Olympics. "It's the small things that make the big things and I think we all lose that sight. Because I did.
"I really did think I was going to die that day. I had just proposed to my girlfriend and I had the dogs, and I have a super-loving family and almost having that taken away from you in a matter of a heartbeat? I need to just be thankful."
During that training run in Saas-Fee, Switzerland, Blunck was trying to dial in a difficult trick – a switch double cork 1440, which includes two spins wrapped inside of two flips. It's one of the toughest tricks in the business.
What happened next remains a blur of sights and sounds to the 25-year-old out of Crested Butte, Colorado, who had been to two previous Olympics, where he had placed seventh both times.
The sights: Seeing the deck of the pipe rapidly approaching and thinking there was no way he was going to get around in time. He hit the frozen edge and slid to the bottom. First, everything went black before a bright, blinding light overtook him.
The sounds: a conversation between him and U.S. halfpipe coach Mike Riddle, who was filming Blunck's run and quickly jumped into the pipe to be at his skier's side.
"I just told him I loved skiing. I loved him. I love my family," Blunck recalled. "But when I tried to stand up for the first time and all of a sudden just like everything went black. And then it was super bright. I knew at that moment, 'Oh, man, something's not right at all.'"
Soon after, the buzz of the chopper in the distance.
"I was like, 'All right, these guys are going to get me to the hospital and everything's going to be good,'" Blunck said.
Between a grade-three lacerated kidney, broken pelvis and banged-up ribs, he hurt everywhere. But he needed to do one thing as he lay in his hospital bed: Watch the video. Just to know where things went wrong.
He couldn't get around quick enough. Nothing more.
"So many people, when they get injured, they kind of hold a grudge against themselves," Blunck said. "They're like, 'Why did this happen to me? This is unfair.' I wanted to watch the video because I wanted to just see where I went wrong to accept it."
The first night in the Swiss hospital, he couldn't get out of bed due to the pain. The next day, he walked a little bit and performed a tiny squat.
So elated, he called his then fiancée (now wife) Morgan in the middle of the night to tell her.
Still, doctors cautioned him – he probably wouldn't be back on the slopes that season even to ski just for fun. As for competing, no way.
"But I'm kind of the person who if you tell me, 'Don't touch the hot plate,' I'm going to touch it," Blunck cracked.
After recovering in Switzerland for a few days, Blunck returned to Colorado. His rehab included plenty of pool work, where he would walk up and down a lane 10 times.
One day, a big breakthrough: another squat, with no pain.
"I got out of the pool and remember calling my family and being like, 'I'm back!'" Blunck said. "They're like, 'Well, you still have a long way to go.' I was like, 'No, you don't understand. I'm back.'"
He healed fast. Real fast.
Three months after his near-fatal fall, Blunck returned to the halfpipe for Winter X, where he finished an improbable second.
Just not with that trick. He hasn't tried that trick again. He might never – and he's OK with that.
All part of his new outlook.
"He just seems to be having even more fun out there," said Riddle, who competed for Canada and earned a silver medal in ski halfpipe at the 2014 Sochi Games. "In our sport, the things everyone's doing are scary and risky. So if you're not having fun, it just makes everything a whole lot harder. He just looks like he's enjoying it more."
Because, he is.
With everything, really. He enjoys walking his two French bulldogs, Tank and Isla. Or skiing with Morgan, whom he married on Aug. 5 in Italy.
"(The crash) was a serious eye-opener to how quickly it can go, how it can be taken from you," Blunck said. "I was given a second chance in a way. I've learned how to be thankful for everything I have."

Analysis: Decoding the Guyana Jaguars Super50 squad
Guyana Jaguars are looking to win a title they last won in 2005 (Photo by WICB Media/Kerrie Eversley
By Editor On Dec 23, 2020 Last updated Dec 23, 2020
By Akeem Greene
According to the Trinidad and Tobago Cricket Board, the Regional Super50 will be held from February 2-27 in Antigua and Barbuda.
They have also announced West Indies limited-overs captain, Kieron Pollard, will lead the Red Force, and they have also started having practice matches in which the likes of current West Indies batsman Evin Lewis and former pacer Ravi Rampaul have found form.
It is understood the Guyana Jaguars players have been in constant training and some even recently got some match time since the Caribbean Premier League when they played in the US Open T20 Cup, which concluded last Sunday.
Chairman of Selectors, Rayon Griffith
Now while the Jaguars have hugged the limelight for Four-Day success in recent years, having won five of the six titles in the era of the Professional Cricket League, they have struggled to replicate that form in the 50-over format.
Actually, the struggles date back much longer, as since October 2005, they last won a Regional 50-over title when they lifted the KFC Cup in a rain-affected final against Barbados at Bourda.
That year, Ramnaresh Sarwan scored the most runs (462) in the tournament, which included three centuries, while Mahendra Nagamootoo took the most wickets (12) for Guyana.
Recent tournament record
November 2019: Guyana failed to qualify for semis (finished third in the group)
February 2018: Lost semi-final to Windward Volcanoes by 52 runs (D/L Method)
October 2018: Lost final to Combined Campuses and Colleges by six wickets
Leon Johnson
The question now is who will Chairman of Selectors Rayon Griffith pick for this campaign? Let's look at some prospects.
Had there not been COVID-19, there would have probably been the Cricket Guyana Inc. 50-over tournament, which would have allowed most to better gauge who merits a spot, based on form.
With West Indies touring Bangladesh for three One-Day Internationals and two Test matches, the last of which starts February 11, the likes of Keemo Paul and Shimron Hetmyer will probably miss matches in the first half of the Super50, since they have become regular faces in both squads.
A combined squad of approximately 25 persons is expected to be selected next week for that tour.
Now back to the Jaguars.
The openers
West Indies ODI batsman Chandrapaul Hemraj, once fully fit, should virtually pick himself. He is the only player with more than one century in the last three editions (October and February 2018, and November 2019), and without question adds impetus to the batting.
Over those tournaments, he averages 30.05, having accumulated 571 runs, in 20 innings, one of which was an unbeaten 103* in October 2018.
Chandrapaul Hemraj
In the last tournament he made 202 runs, of which he made an even hundred, but his strike rate, unlike the two previous seasons where it was in excess of 90, was 68.47.
Tagenarine Chanderpaul and newcomer Kemol Savory were given the responsibility at the top of the order, and while both managed some degree of success, their strike rates were the main concern- both were under 50.
Trevon Griffith, who last played during the October 2018 tournament, is an option the selectors have chosen, and there is the left-field choice of asking wicket-keeper batsman Anthony Bramble to open the batting or offer a fresh in the form of West Indies Under-19 opener Raymond Perez.
Another name worthy of mention is West Indies Under-19 player, Kevlon Anderson.
At some point in time, there will be a need for the injection of the younger blossoming talents from the CGI Academy to learn while the seniors are still present.
Christopher Barnwell
The middle-order
Since it is highly unlikely Hetmyer will be available, at least for the first round of matches, the 33-year-old Leon Johnson will become a key figure, as both likely captain and batsman.
Interestingly, Johnson is the only other player with a century in the last three tournaments – he made 101 in the October 2018 tournament- but has a lean patch given his experience and class.
In that 2018 tournament, he made 222 runs at an average of 31.71 and a decent strike rate of 73.02.
During the February 2018 outing, he got 193 runs at an average of 27.57 with a highest of 99, however, last year, his best score after eight innings was 43 out of the 147 runs accumulated at an average of 18.37.
Some have called for a change in the guard of leadership to possibly bring a change in fortunes, but if you are looking at the long-term development of a leader, the options are limited with Hetmyer's potential absence.
The 30-year-old Bramble is usually the vice-captain, while Veerasammy Permaul and Christopher Barnwell have captained in the past. Given the current circumstances, it is improbable those calls will be answered.
Barnwell seems to be another automatic pick in this squad.
Over the last three seasons, the 33-year-old has been by far, the team's most productive and consistent batsman.
His aggregate from 2018 is 873 runs at an average of 45.94 and highest of 99* and a strike rate in excess of 88, to go along with seven half-centuries.
Last season he topped the Jaguars' batting charts with 351 runs at an average of 43.87 and strike of 99.71.
A more measured approach has brought him success, but for sure with some of those half-centuries bordering on the 100-mark, he would want to score a maiden List A century this upcoming tournament.
West Indies player Sherfane Rutherford is not contracted by the Jaguars, but can still represent on a pay-for-play basis.
He was absent from last year's tournament, but in the two previous editions, he has been an impactful player with all-round skill and floater in the batting order.
A total of 321 runs at an average of 29.18, a strike rate of over 88 along with six wickets over those two seasons, makes him another valuable player if the selectors take that route. That average is one area he would want to improve.
Johnathon Foo would feel he has done enough to retain a place given his heroics last season.
He averaged 55.56 – best for the team– and was the second leading run-scorer – 331 runs – which came at a strike rate of 113.12.
The Berbican cracked an unbeaten 97 from 92 balls with six fours and four maximums in a losing cause against Trinidad and Tobago Red Force.
Ramaal Lewis
The All-rounders and Bowlers
Raymon Reifer has been a constant in the West Indies Test group, but over the last two tours, he has been in the reserves.
However, for this tour to Bangladesh, there won't be any separate reserve squad, as they will utilise the ODI players to cover if there are injuries to the Test players.
It implies, Reifer could be present for the entire tournament, and certainly a player with his experience would be valued.
In seven matches last year, he got 172 runs and took 10 wickets, the second-most for Jaguars.
Romario Shepherd's exploits against New Zealand A in the two Four-Day matches might see him breaking into the Test squad, or he could be on the 50-over side and be asked to stay on as a cover.
In the event the latter does not happen, Shepherd's selection for this tournament is a no-brainer given his pedigree.
If absent, it could pave the way for a return of fellow all-rounder Clinton Pestano, would missed the entire 2020 Four-Day season due to a knee injury.
Kevin Sinclair
Over the last couple of months, he has been seen increasing his level of output in gym work, noting that he is back to full fitness, at least for white-ball cricket.
He only played four matches last season and got two wickets, but it was October 2018, where he showed his worth with 15 wickets at 18.00 and an economy rate of 4.21
Off-spinning all-rounder Kevin Sinclair is another trump card in his format.
The 21-year-old offers the ability to bowl in the Powerplay with the new-ball and be miserly as seen last year when he played for eventual champions, West Indies Emerging Players.
He had the best economy me in the entire tournament – 2.87 – and took 13 wickets at an average of 14.69. He also made 132 runs in seven innings.
The ever-consistent Veerasammy Permaul, who took the most wickets -11 – for Jaguars last season, will spearhead the attack, unless he gets a surprise call-up for the Test tour, given it is sub-continent conditions.
October 2018 stats (ESPNCricinfo)
Gudakesh Motie or Ramaal Lewis? That must be a question that pops up in the selection meeting.
On numbers alone, the former would be hard-pressed since the Jamaican Lewis, who is an off-spinner and handy lower-order batsman, has taken 28 wickets in his last 20 innings (the last three seasons), and done so at an average of under 21 and economy rate of under five.
Motie missed both tournaments in 2018, but played four matches last year and took two wickets.
It will be an interesting call on either one since there are already two frontline starters, who offer the said skillset.
February 2018 stats (ESPNCricinfo)
One must note, Ashmead Nedd will be playing for contracted franchise Leeward Island Hurricanes.
Nail Smith, who made his debut last year, is one of the options for the express seamer position as Keon Joseph has not played List A cricket since 2010.
Ronsford Beaton, who played in six matches last year and got seven wickets, before his action was reported and found to be illegal, seems to have cleared that hurdle as he recently played in an ICC sanctioned US Open T20 Cup.
However, no official announcement has been made whether he is cleared to bowl.
Ronaldo Alimohamed, who is another youngster with potential, made his debut last season when he replaced Beaton.
November 2019 stats (ESPNCricinfo)
There are some experiments the selectors might take in looking at the likes of a Quinton Sampson, who scored some explosive runs in the last domestic 50-over for Essequibo or a recall of all-rounder Ricardo Adams, who played in both 2018 tournaments.
The headache lies with the unlikelihood of any domestic 50-over tournament prior to February, which makes past success the key to selection.
There is still uncertainty as to who is actually available for selection, but whenever that is revealed, it will be interesting to see who makes the 14-man squad.

Apparently Waterston is still in the dark about the sequel

same thing on bloody disgusting https://bloody-disgusting.com/movie/3541285/katherine-waterston-alien-covenant-sequel-nothing-currently-happening/
thanks for the share ignorantGuy.
What I read from that is Waterston finds what she knows about the plot for the sequel interesting enough to be more than happy to be involved. Maybe this suggests that Daniels character may be significantly involved in the sequel and not just butchered like Shaw.
But then Im sure the intention after Prometheus was that Noomi Rapace would have a more significant role too....
This seems to indicate to me that even as of NOW there is no updates on any sequel to Alien Covenant, but it appears that Katherine Waterston was likely to have had some role to play, makes sense because a second movie in a row where the Female Protagonist is killed off/plays no part leaving only David as the Surviving Cast Member may not be a wise move!
It seems she is aware of some of the Plot as of the time during the weeks following Covenants Release. She did indicate way back then that she heard Rumors (means she had i idea of some parts of where they was taking the sequel) but then she also said or she could wind up in a Body Bag.... which to indicates she is aware things are subject to Change!
I think we can assume this may be in reference to what happened to Noomi Rapace, as in a Movie may END and set up a Plot to follow that would continue with the Actress but that things could just as easy change and they have NO role to play at all.... Certainly its unlikely that within the 6-12 months after Prometheus that Dr Shaws role would have been so little.
What i noticed from some of these Articles is they speculate again that Alien Awakening was going to be about David rocking up to LV-426 and then Engineers turn up for a Good Old Fashioned Slug Fest!
I have always been drawn to this being only SET-UP in the next movie, so that any such Slug Fest would be in TWO Movies time.
I cant help but think Ridley Scotts TV Series Raised by Wolves may have a number of Elements he wished to explore in the ON ICE Sequel.
I think this is old news.Actually i'm pretty sure SCIFIED ran this story some months ago.
ninXeno426 No it's not. It is a new interview in which she says more or less the same thing.
Technically it is a new interview, so for the sake of chronicling news I'll front page this. Thanks IgnorantGuy!
Alien: Covenant | Predator 4
So there really is nothing new; however, it is good to see interviews being conducted. It shows that there is still interest.
Ah ok.But i do remember her saying the same thing roughly six or so months back.The news it would seem is unsurprisingly no new developments since then.
ninXeno426 She could get a call half-year before the movie release to appear in a marketing short.
It also sounds like she is not allowed to say anything beyond what she said lest she suffer lawyers' wrath. I suppose the same could be said for Fassbender and McBride.
I think trying to Ponder what kind of Information Miss Waterston knows about the sequel to Alien Covenant, we have to consider at what point had she Privy to any information, during Shooting, after Shooting had Finished, during the Promotion for Alien Covenant?
Because depending how much RS and other working on the Project had discussed where it would go next, and at which point Miss Waterson heard the last of anything... could have a bearing on what she knows.... Because ideas can Change from Shooting, Editing and Movie Release.
At the Basics... we know that Alien Covenant is going to lead us to the Back Door of ALIEN which Ridley Scott Claimed would require 2-3 more Movies. So if we consider that the Plot is INDEED that Davids Xenomorph Creations Eventually end up on the Derelict that lands on LV-426 which the Nostromo Crew then Investigate some 17 years after Daniels has been tucked up in Cryo-Sleep.
That kind of Time-Frame and 2-3 Movies is surely not going to be a simple Plot of Leave Planet 4 and head to LV-426 which are in the same Constellation.
We have the SET-UP that David is in Control of the Covenant Ship, and has informed (as Walter) the Covenant is proceeding to Origae-6 which will take it another 7 years 4 Months.
Tennessee would believe they have Finally overcome the Ordeal and when they awake, they will arrive at Origae-6, however we know that Daniels had discovered the True Identity of David and this sets up a interesting encounter and scenario because its a case of would Daniels Forget?
If Davids Plans are to TURN the Crew into Xenomorph Eggs, then it matters NOT for David what Daniels knows.. but can we expect such a simple PLOT?
So Potentially at the very least there is some interesting scenarios regarding what does David do with Daniels... if he wishes to CHARADE as Walter, how can he when Daniels is in the KNOW? And killing her off would make Tennessee Suspicious so ideally they would BOTH have to be killed off...
But you can sense some interest in Daniels from David, and i think he may keep her alive as a Play-Thing.. and when we look at other ELEMENTS from Clues left by David he had said he PLANNED to do to Daniels what he had done with Dr Shaw... and i dont think this means we would just see her Turn up in the Next Movie has a Corpse..
We also know he has just TWO Face Hugger Embryos, and its indicated that eventually Davids Xenomorphs will END-UP on LV-426 on the Derelict at the closure of the Prequels. Or so it is inferred this would be the case.
But at this point who knew were the Sequel would have gone.... Its only the Advent Viral and Ridley Scotts comments after the Launch of Alien Covenant that maybe shed some light.
David has sent the company information on what he has been doing, and revealed himself, so they are in the KNOW and surely would Investigate but WHERE TOO? David also said he need to Perfect his Queen which means he has to find a better way to Mass-Produce his Xenomorphs?
But Ridley Scotts comments suggest the NEXT Movie would NOT be about Xenomorphs but more about AI (he had also suggested that AI is not solely Mechanical, by suggesting the Replicants are AI) This does-not mean we wont have Xenomorphs... but with 1-2 more Movies Planned after the Alien Covenant Sequel there was plenty of Screen Time to explore the Xenomorphs in future movies.
Ridley Scott confirmed they are going to the Planet, and what kind of a World would David build... again some think this is LV-426 or LV-223 but then bare in mind the next movie is NOT about the Xenomorph and we have 1-2 more after before we arrive at the back door to ALIEN.
He also then claims that there would be 3-4 incoming parties.. likely in the 3rd Act, and that the Engineers are ONE of these after they arrive back at Planet 4 and Discover the Genocide that David has committed and would be looking for the Culprit.
I am drawn to that some of the Plot may have quite a bit in common with his Raised by Wolves TV Series.. as i mentioned in my Topic Alien: Exodus
Certainly DK....
Even though she may be unaware of what Changes could be made, she would not speak about what she heard about IN-CASE they are still using those ideas.
Such as if she said "well one interesting thing was David leaves me stranded on the Planet and i have to repair Walter and we are stranded until the Engineers arrive"
Or "David keeps me prisoner and uses my Egg Cells to Produce more Alien Eggs and then he wishes to Evolve her and she, manages to Persuade David that she would accept this and he lets his guard down and i escape"
Those are examples... so if they was correct she would not mention them just IN-CASE they will still remain part of any Plot when Shooting gets under way..
Even though its in LIMBO... i dont think she would SPILL beans until RS comes out and says he wont be involved in another Alien Movie and the Plot for Alien Awakening has been totally scrapped.
