What a classic! Nearly seventy years after its initial release, All About Eve (1950) is still included on the lists of the best films ever made. If you've seen the movie, you know why! And if you haven't yet seen All About Eve, you're in for a treat. All About Eve is Bette Davis in arguably her most iconic role. And it's Bette at her spunky, acerbic, witty, (and at times nasty!!!), utterly classic best.
You don't want to miss All About Eve when it plays on TCM this Tuesday. All About Eve will also be available to watch on tcm.com the week after it plays live. This is a movie totally worth adding to your collection, and you can purchase (or rent) the film on Amazon here [aff. link].
All About Eve: The Plot
All About Eve is all about "the theater." Bette plays Margo Channing, the greatest stage actress of the moment. Margo has just turned 40, a watershed year for an actress, and has some career insecurities as she continues to play ingénue roles.
Karen (Celeste Holm, she's the blonde) tells Margo (Bette Davis) that she's brought a devoted fan backstage to meet her. Lloyd (Hugh Marlowe) and Birdie (Thelma Ritter) look on.
Enter Eve Harrington (Anne Baxter), a fan who's been to every performance of Margo's latest Broadway play. One night, Eve is brought to Margo's dressing room by Karen Richards (Celeste Holm), Margo's best friend. Karen also happens to be the wife of Lloyd Richards (Hugh Marlowe), the author of most of the plays Margo appears in. And to round out this tight-knit group, the director of most of Margo's plays is Bill Sampson (Gary Merrill), who is also Margo's (younger) boyfriend. Through Karen's kindness, Eve meets the whole group, and wins them all over with her apparent humility and sweetness.
L-R: Bill (Gary Merrill), Eve (Anne Baxter), and Margo (Bette Davis). Bill is about to go to Hollywood to make a film for a few months. Before he leaves, Bill and Margo gush to each other about what a great gal their new friend Eve is.
"Isn't it silly? Suddenly I've developed a big protective feeling toward her [Eve]. A lamb loose in our big stone jungle."
Margo tells boyfriend Bill Sampson. And so Margo hires Eve to be her live-in assistant. To all who observe Eve's adoration of Margo, it seems clear that Eve, as Karen puts it, "worships" Margo.
Birdie warns Margo that Eve must have ulterior motives, that her obsession with Margo is more nuanced than it seems on the surface...
Eve's Obsessive Devotion
But is Eve's devotion too good to be true? The first hint we get that this may be the case comes from Margo's pre-Eve assistant, Birdie (played by the always amazing Thelma Ritter!). Birdie finds herself basically out of a job because Eve has taken over all aspects of Margo's life. Birdie warns Margo about Eve:
"It's like she's studying you. Like you was a play or a book or a set of blueprints." How you walk, talk, eat, think, sleep…"
Can you tell the film is about to get juicy?!!!! Birdie is right, this Eve is a conniver, and our protagonists, one by one, are about to find out!
Eve and Margo welcome theater critic Addison DeWitt (George Sanders) and his protege Miss Casswell to the party Eve organizes for Bill. Does Miss Casswell look familiar? She should, it's a young Marilyn Monroe!
Not What She Seems!
Margo discovers that Eve isn't a sweet innocent after Eve mentions with a hint of malice that she sent Margo's boyfriend Bill a telegram on his birthday. Furthermore, Eve informs Margo that she's organized a birthday party for Bill…
Come on Margo, FIRE THE JERK!!!!
Margo's no idiot, and, already self-conscious about the age difference between herself and Bill, worries that Eve will use the party as a way to take Bill away from her. When Karen and Lloyd arrive at the party, they can tell something's up:
"Fasten your seatbelts. It's going to be a bumpy night."
Margo tells them. (And thus one of Bette Davis' best lines, one of Cinema's best lines, was delivered!)
Even after the party, Margo's friends still don't understand why her feelings towards Eve have soured. When Margo fires Eve, Karen, Lloyd, and Bill are convinced Margo is just being self-involved. Even after Eve manages to become Margo's understudy in her current play, no one but Margo seems to think Eve is using them all for personal gain.
Karen keeps Margo from getting to the theater in time for her performance, not realizing that she's putting an end to Margo's stage career, and enabling Eve's ambitions to displace Margo as Broadway's greatest actress.
Karen is the next to discover who Eve really is. Unbeknownst to Margo, Karen—still thinking Eve is a sweet young thing—helps Eve go on in Margo's place one night in the play. After Eve wins rave reviews for her performance, she decides Karen's husband Lloyd would be good for her career, so Eve goes after him, and tries to use her feminine wiles to take Lloyd away from Karen! Like Margo, now Karen knows Eve is not a very nice person.
Eve, in costume, connives her way into the understudy role of Margo's play! With Karen's help, Eve gets the chance to perform one night, and meets powerful theater critic, Addison DeWitt.
Bill basically learns about Eve's true nature at the same time Karen does. In an interview with theater critic Addison DeWitt (George Sanders) after her triumphant performance, Eve says that older actresses need to step aside, and allow younger actresses a chance to shine. In Eve's opinion, older actresses must stop playing ingénues. WOW!!!!! A total jab at Margo! Bill is loyal and in love with Margo, so now he hates Eve too.
It's not clear when exactly Lloyd finds out about Eve, but he is definitely the last to see through her, though he gets there eventually!
Bill assures Margo of his love for her after Eve's triumphant performance in Margo's role, and her terrible words in Addison DeWitt's column.
Eve Lands on Top
Eve's scathing words in Addison's column convince Margo and Bill that it's time for them to get married, and Margo turns down the role Lloyd wrote for her in his new play. Well, guess who ends up playing the lead in Lloyd's play?
Yep, despite the fact that Lloyd wrote the play and hates Eve, that Karen is his wife and hates Eve, that Bill will direct the play and hates Eve, and that the play was written for Margo—who also hates Eve—EVE ENDS UP WITH THE LEAD ROLE! That is the magic of this despicable woman's ability to get what she wants.
Eve blackmails Karen in the powder room at a restaurant. Look at the guile and manipulation in Eve's face! Poor Karen.
The play of course turns out to be a raving success, and Eve wins the prestigious Sarah Siddons award for her work.
But at what cost? All the old friends Eve betrayed now hate her, and on her way up to the top of the theater world, Eve sold her soul to theater critic Addison DeWitt, the one character in the film who is at least as evil as Eve. Addison gives Eve a pretty accurate description of the similarities between them:
Eve and Addison cunningly admire Eve's Sarah Siddons Award. These two are so bad, they completely deserve each other.
"You're an improbable person, Eve, and so am I. We have that in common. Also a contempt for humanity, an inability to love and be loved, insatiable ambition, and talent."
Eve is basically a sociopath, so she really doesn't much care that Margo, Karen, Bill, and Lloyd think she's the devil. But Addison has some damning info about Eve's real past life—you'll just have to watch the film to find out about Eve's seedy past!—and she hates having to cow to him.
Eve seems to have unknowingly met her match in Phoebe, the fan at the end of the film who begins to force herself into Eve's life, with presumably the same intentions as Eve had when she placed herself in Margo's life...!
The film closes with Eve at the top of the theater world, and primed for a little bit of history repeated when a young theater hopeful starts to insert herself into Eve's life, just as Eve did to Margo…The End!
The Cast of Characters! L-R: Gary Merrill (Bill), Bette Davis (Margo), George Sanders (Addison), Anne Baxter (Eve), Hugh Marlow (Lloyd), and Celeste Holm (Karen).
All About Eve and Bette's Role of a Lifetime
All About Eve was written and directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz. (And yes, TCM fans! Joseph Mankiewicz is related to TCM presenter Ben Mankiewicz, his great-uncle in fact.) It seems Bette Davis was destined to play Margo Channing, for even though Claudette Colbert was the first actress signed to the role, Colbert had to drop out after suffering an intense back injury. The part went to Bette, who had been Mankiewicz's first choice to begin with. Mankiewicz was happy because he got his first choice actress after all, and Bette was happy because, after a slew of not so great movies, she recognized in All About Eve a comeback film, and potentially the greatest role of her career.
"This Woman will Destroy You"
Joseph Mankiewicz was warned about Bette and her controlling tactics on film sets by several other directors who had worked with her before. Edmund Goulding, Bette's four-time director, had especially memorable words for Mankiewicz about the head-strong Bette Davis:
"Have you gone mad? This woman will destroy you, she will grind you down to a fine powder and blow you away. You are a writer, dear boy. She will come to the stage with a thick pad of long yellow paper. And pencils. She will write. And then she, not you, will direct. Mark my words."
OH shoot oh SHOOT!
Bette as Margo discovers that Eve is her new understudy in the play. Sabotage is just around the corner!!!
Mankiewicz was understandably a little apprehensive when Bette arrived on set the first day of filming. But despite the warnings of others, Mankiewicz found Bette a joy to work with:
"Bette was letter perfect. She was syllable perfect. There was no fumbling for my words; they had become hers—as Margo Channing. The director's dream: the prepared actress."
I think there are a few reasons why Bette behaved for Joseph Mankiewicz. The biggest one is that she respected him and his talent. Bette was a smart woman, and she undoubtedly realized that the All About Eve script was perfect, as written by Mankiewicz. Margo's dialogue literally could not be improved upon. Bette knew this, and left it alone.
Bette and Joseph Mankiewicz. The two respected each other greatly, and as such their relationship as actress and director on the All About Eve set was completely harmonious.
The other reason Bette and Mankiewicz enjoyed a fabulous working relationship on All About Eve is that Mankiewicz was also smart, and he knew not to get in the way of Bette's ego by directing her too much. Reportedly, the only real direction Mankiewicz gave Bette about how to portray Margo Channing was that
"Margo Channing was a woman who would treat her mink coat like a poncho."
Bette loved it, and knew exactly what to do with her character with this piece of direction. And Mankiewicz didn't get in Bette's way! Mutual respect.
Bette with third husband, William Sherry.
Bette Loses It
In fact the only thing about Bette on set that worried Mankiewicz was her voice: just prior to filming, Bette got into a screaming match with soon-to-be ex-husband number three, William Sherry. The screaming got so intense that Bette broke a blood vessel in her throat! After following a weekend-long gag order from her doctor, however, Bette got the green light to talk, and her resulting deep, throaty voice actually worked in the film's favor.
As Mankiewicz told Bette:
"It's just the whiskey-throated voice Margo should have. If your throat improves, make sure you keep your voice deep throughout the picture."
So even the one potential problem between Bette and Mankiewicz on set turned out to be a major positive!
All About Eve: Behind the Scenes Friends and Foes
Bette and Joseph Mankiewicz may have loved working together, but the rest of the cast and their feelings towards Bette was truly a mixed bag.
Here's a little taste of Bette's working relationships on the Eve set:
Celeste Holm as Karen Richards in All About Eve.
Celeste Holm: Bette Hated Her!
Bette famously had a hard time getting along with her female costars, and true to form, Bette did not get along with Celeste Holm.
Bette said of Celeste:
"Filming All About Eve was a very happy experience…the only b – – – – in the cast was Celeste Holm."
And Celeste shot back about Bette:
"I walked onto the set…on the first day and said, 'Good morning [to Bette],' and do you know her reply? She said, 'Oh s – – –, good manners.' I never spoke to her again—ever."
Wow, sounds INTENSE!!!!
Gary Merrill, Bette's final husband. They met and fell in love while filming All About Eve.
Gary Merrill: Bette Loved Him! (Literally)
If you remember from my intro post on Bette, Gary Merrill was Bette's fourth and final husband. They met on the Eve set, and the attraction was mutual, and immediate. According to Celeste Holm,
"Bette had taken one look at Gary and Gary had taken one look at Bette, and something had happened. And from then on she didn't care whether the rest of us lived or died."
So obviously Bette and Gary got along on the All About Eve set!
Anne Baxter (Eve) with first husband John Hodiak.
Anne Baxter: Bette (Surprisingly) Loved Her!
Anne Baxter, Eve in the film, had every reason to be Bette's rival. For one, Anne's and Bette's characters in All About Eve hate each other. For another, Anne was a woman—a younger woman no less—and as we just rehashed, Bette Davis quite uniformly did not like her female costars. Despite these odds, Anne and Bette actually became friends! Anne Baxter is one of two major female costars Bette had during her career that she remained on friendly terms with, the other being Olivia de Havilland. (Interesting side note: Anne Baxter is the granddaughter of renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright!)
George Sanders as Addison DeWitt.
George Sanders: Bette HATED Him!
If you know anything about George Sanders, you probably already guessed that he and Bette were perhaps too similar to get along under any circumstances in any universe. !!!!! As Sanders related,
"I matched her [Bette] snarl for snarl and bite for bite. Of course it was great for the picture, as it made for some nice confrontational conflict…Later, when she lost the Oscar and I won for Best Supporting Actor, I met her at a party and she turned her back on me without a word. I couldn't resist the temptation to purr over her shoulder, 'Sour grapes, Bette?' and do you know what she did? She turned around and spit at me!'"
Oh my goodness THOSE TWO!!!!
Edith Head's design for Bette's most memorable gown from All About Eve. Head would win the Oscar for Best Costume Design for her work on the film.
All About Eve at The Oscars!
At the 1951 Academy Awards, All About Eve earned at record 14 nominations! The film won six Oscars that year, but George Sanders was the only actor from the film who won in his category. Anne Baxter and Bette were both nominated for Best Actress, and Celeste Holm and Thelma Ritter were both nominated for Best Supporting Actress. All About Eve holds a special Oscar record for having the most actresses nominated for Academy Awards from a single film! But none of them won.
In Joseph Mankiewicz's words,
"Bette lost because Anne Baxter was nominated. Annie lost because Bette Davis ditto. Celeste Holm lost because Thelma Ritter was nominated, and she lost because Celeste ditto."
Good point, and probably true!
Marilyn's role of Miss Casswell in All About Eve was a major stepping stone in her career.
All About Eve: A Big Break for Marilyn
All About Eve holds a special place in the hearts of Marilyn Monroe fans, for it was one of Marilyn's first film roles, and perhaps the first film where audiences really got to see the actress who would soon become a timeless legend.
Joseph Mankiewicz cast Marilyn as Miss Casswell in All About Eve, an aspiring actress who is a bit of a…shall we say protégé?…of Addison DeWitt's before he latches onto Eve. Mankiewicz had some really interesting things to say about Marilyn and his reasons for casting this unknown actress in his picture:
Marilyn behind the scenes with All About Eve director Joseph Mankiewicz.
"I thought she was right for the role, which was of an aspiring theater actress, and Marilyn was nothing if not aspiring at the time. It was suggested that the character would do whatever she had to do to get ahead, and I sensed that in Marilyn there was a certain amount of cunning as well as innocence. I found her a fascinating mix. On one hand, she was vulnerable. But, on the other, calculating. She knew what she was doing, that one. There was never a false move with her."
Marilyn in one of her gorgeous gowns from the film!
All About Eve was Marilyn's first truly big film. But she ended up being quite costly to the production for a few reasons! One of which was that Marilyn, despite not being a star or holding any sort of power at the studio (20thCentury Fox), was always late to the set. Can you imagine being consistently late for filming on your first big movie with a huge star like Bette Davis? But that was Marilyn, and tardy or not, you gotta love her!
She was further an expense to the film because, according to Gary Merrill, Marilyn was an inexperienced actress who required multiple takes for her scenes, no matter how scant her dialogue. Merrill said that in her big scene with Bette:
Marilyn's big scene with Bette in the film required 10 (or 11, depending on who you ask) takes, despite the fact that Marilyn had very little dialogue.
"…Marilyn had only a few lines…Bette had more, but she was an experienced actress and accomplished the scene with little bother. It had to be done in ten takes, however—Marilyn kept forgetting her lines."
Marilyn was also apparently so nervous about working with a star as great as Bette that when Bette became impatient with her after all these takes for a simple scene, Marilyn had to excuse herself to the restroom to vomit. Ok, that's kind of sweet. Not very glamorous, but sweet.
Mankiewicz directs Marilyn in All About Eve (1950).
Marilyn may have little dialogue and screen time in Eve, but her star power is obvious, and it's really fun and fascinating to see all those qualities that she would become world famous for—the pout, the walk, the innocent yet flashing eyes, the dumb, but maybe not so dumb blonde persona—in their nascent state. You truly can't miss her in the film!
And that's All About Eve! Be sure to check out the TCM calendar so you don't miss the film when it plays on TCM on Tuesday!

Schoolgirls : What About The Storyline?
Elanie Williams
Schoolgirls(also known as La nias or The Girls) is a 2020 Spanish coming-of-age drama film written and directed by Pilar Palomero and starring Andrea Fandos and Natalia de Molina.
At the 35th annual Goya Awards, Palomero and Daniela Cajas took home the Goya Award for Best Film, the award for Best New Director, the award for Best Original Screenplay, and the award for Best Cinematography.
When Cajas was awarded the Cinematography Goya for the first time, she made history. The film won Best Drama Film, Best Director, and Best Screenplay from a total of six nominations at the 8th Feroz Awards, which were held in Cairo, Egypt.
What Happenend In Schoolgirls?
Celia, an 11-year-old girl, lives with her 30-year-old widowed mother Adela in the city of Zaragoza (province of Zaragoza, autonomous community capital of Aragón in northeastern Spain) in spring 1992. She attends a Catholic school and helps her mother with cooking and housekeeping.
Brisa (a new student from Catalonia's capital city of Barcelona) disrupts her tranquil existence. Brash and vivacious, Brisa exposes Celia to new music bands while also making friends with Cristina and Clara's elder sister. She is curious, restless, and exuberant.
In spite of the modernity of a Spain that in 1992 was the focus of attention as the European Cultural Capital, the Expo in Seville, and the Olympic Games in Barcelona, Celia's life is kept conservative and repressive not only by the nuns but also by working-class illiterate Adela, who refuses to talk about Celia's father and worries about her own aging father but is unable to visit him because she was banished from her birth village for being an unwed mother.
Celia's weekends are spent dancing in discotheques with the other girls and learning that she is detested at school since she does not have a father like the other girls.
She's lost her sense of self and is trying to figure out who she is and where she fits in. As unusual as the age in which they lived, "The Girls" depicts a distinct generation.
When Was Schoolgirls Released?
Schoolgirls provide a good experience and the movie was released in 2020. but its accurate date is September 3, 2020.
Special Information About Movie
Genre:-Dramatic
Foreign languages:-English as a Second Language (ESL)

Cast Of Schoolgirls
Schoolgirls movie made good because it actor played their role very well. all character do their hundred percent for this movie.

Schoolgirls' Rating
The reviews for Schoolgirls have been overwhelmingly good. Based on eight reviews and an average rating of 8.8/10, Rotten Tomatoes gives it a perfect score of 100 percent approval.
The movie is related to a girl who does whatever it takes to quit being a young girl and start experimenting, trying new things. Moreover, IMDB also gives it a 6.4/10 rating to it.
Where Will You find Schoolgirls?
The movie is available on NetFlix and online also. and the trailer is available on youtube. but if you still do not see the trailer and you want to see it so just click and enjoy the video.
What I think:
Schoolgirls do not have much of the political tract that is founded on the persuasive details of Palomero's personal memories, though.
The narrative of Celia's hunt for the (rumor has it, unpleasant) truth about her father continues in the background.
It is handled, uncharacteristically for this picture, in a manner that may leave some viewers scratching their heads.
The story actually connects the young girls. if you are still not seen this movie so we recommend you to must-see this amazing movie. still, if you have questions you can comment us.

Directivity of Microphones in Portable Devices
Portable devices such as smartphones, tablets or laptops are often used in hands-free mode for telephone calls. For the manufacturer of the device, it is important to ensure that the microphone is able to pick up the speech from all directions so that the user is well understood. With the new version of the microphone test software RT-MicFX, NTi Audio offers a simple and convenient method to determine this microphone directivity.
Portable devices are used extensively in our daily verbal communication, and more and more communications applications are being launched. Often, such portable devices are utilized in a hands-free mode; the device stays in one place, and the user moves freely in space. This presents a challenge - the intelligibility of the speech should remain clear and consistent, regardless of the talker's position. Some devices employ more than one microphone to increase the number of positions from which speech can be detected and thereby improve the quality of the spoken message.
From the perspective of the testing engineer, measuring a microphone in such an environment may seem formidable because the signal received by the microphone generally cannot be forwarded in real time to an audio measurement system. With the NTi Audio microphone test system this task is made very easy. The device to be tested is placed on a turntable. This is located in front of a sound source. The measurement is carried out in two sequential steps:
a) First, the device under test (DUT) is gradually rotated 360 degrees. At predefined angles, a sound is played to indicate that the test signal is about to start. This trigger signal is required in step 2. A gliding sweep test signal is then played towards the DUT. All signals received by the microphone are continuously recorded, for example, with a voice recorder app within the device.
b) In the second step, the headphone jack of the DUT is connected to the FX100 Audio Analyzer and the recorded sequence of test signals are replayed. The measuring system automatically recognizes the trigger signal, analyzes the test signal that follows and creates a polar diagram of the microphone.
Both the turntable and the FX100 Audio Analyzer are driven by the RT-MicFX PC-software. The polar diagrams can be customized through the choice of frequencies, color, degree of smoothing and interpolation.
The RT-MicFX Software 2.70.0 version is available as a free update to all owners of RT-MicFX software at the NTi Audio Support website.

The Director of Youth Services of the Trincomalee Rotary Club, Mr.R.Rajarammohan, participating as the guest of honour said good leadership is needed to ensure progress of the country.

Review from our visit in August 2015, as usually I'm playing catch up on the blog.
I have to say we really liked this place and thanks to KiwiCollection.com and Visa Signature we got a great rate, for our five night stay. I only hope we can afford it the next time we are in town. The hotel has a modern, lux feel with some interesting art in the lobby which is on a rotating exhibit. The hotel is a step down from the highest-end places in Manhattan, the Mandarin Oriental, the Peninsula or the Ritz, but is a big step up from mid-range where we've been staying; the Iroquois, the Nolitan (which I like) or somewhere like the Shoreham or the Roger.
As you can see the room and bathroom were tasteful, comfortable and well appointed, though you shouldn't expect the more spacious rooms you'll find in a truly luxury property.
The service is good, friendly, personable and flexible and, with the exception of one of the concierges, no one was stuffy. The rooms have a slight generic feel but everything is very well made, well chosen and is tasteful. Some reviews have remarked on the loud air conditioning, we thought it was fine and anyway it provided a perfect "white noise" which you need in New York City. We had some noise from 57th street in our first room on the 7th floor (but it wasn't bad) though I was happier when we moved to the 14th floor.
They were extremely accommodating with the move, they sent a tea kettle and milk when I enquired about one and brought ice when I sprained my ankle stepping off a curb. No I'm not over 70, I wasn't wearing high heels and I wasn't drunk - just foolish! The hotel offered to bring a bandage for compression and even gave me an artificial cold pack in addition to the ice. I was very impressed with their attention.
Our rate included lots of extras and because we booked through Kiwi, breakfast at the next-door Wayfarer was included. It seemed we could order whatever we liked which was very generous. The restaurant is attached to the hotel but seems to be run under different management. You have the feeling of going to an upscale restaurant for breakfast which feels rather a treat and I enjoyed it daily. We had family staying at the Essex House around the corner and they opted to join us for breakfast here for several mornings which was nice too.
I wasn't crazy about the Fresh amenities and I couldn't find any information about whether they are paragon free, though this may not bother other people. They're fine but nothing special, everything else was very well chosen these not so much. The Nolitan stocks Red Flower which to me is a much more eco/local options and therefore far more desirable.
When they delivered the kettle and milk it would have been nice if they's sent up a couple of teabags too. The front desk had told me to help myself to some tea bags in the small library where they offer complimentary tea and coffee the next morning, but that wasn't much help at 7pm, so D. had to go out for them. No big deal but it seemed like a missed opportunity given that they had the tea.
Art from the front lobby.
I'm really having to stretch to think of much that wasn't great. I overall I really enjoyed the space, the aesthetic and the stay. This is certainly a hotel I'd return to and at the rate we paid it was a great value and it's ideally situated for Central Park, the MOMA and the Met.
Tip: If you're staying at the Quin don't miss having a drink at The Roof the rooftop bar at the Viceroy Hotel just across the street. Yes, your drink will cost you $18 (effectively the cost of admission) but the view over the park is spectacular. We were there on a cloudy afternoon when they opened at 3pm and it was still worth it.

We very much appreciate the tip as we are planning a trip to NYC this Spring!
Thanks Jennie - so glad it could be useful. Lots more NY stuff coming up but I may be sidetracked talking about our recent Colombia adventures!


"Thank you. Our Kitchen looks wonderful. As a contractor in a service business, I appreciate what it take to deliver as promised, on time. The installers were neat, thorough, and courteous. You can count on referrals from us."
"Thank you for all of the hard work and the beautiful kitchen."
"My wife and I were so happy to find a contractor who so willing to listen to us. Bob created the kitchen of our dreams. That was over 4 years ago. I can say that I wouldn't change anything. My wife and I still receive so many positive comments. It is our favorite room in the house."
"We purchased our cabinets thru Bob at Creative Kitchens. His knowledge of kitchen design is amazing! He took the measurements of our kitchen and completely redesigned it to make the work space more 'user friendly'. Anytime we have a new visitor at our home, the first room they notice and comment on is our great kitchen! If we are ever in the market for a new kitchen at a different home, Creative Kitchens by Bob will be our choice."
"Thank you very much for your good job. I'll recommend you to my friends and neighbors."
"We love our new kitchen & we are very glad that we chose your company to do the work. The overriding feeling we had was that you wanted us to be 'pleased' and we are."
"Just a brief note to tell you how pleased we are with the new countertops. They look beautiful! The two installers did a great job & took their time."
"When we decided to re-do our kitchen, we were mostly just looking for a good place to pick out the cabinets and things. The salespeople at Creative were really helpful with that, but they also gave us lots of new ideas for the design which we hadn't thought of, and which really made the final product so much better. They gave us a very affordable quote, and stuck to it, and the new kitchen was completed almost a full week early! I would definitely recommend Creative Kitchens to anyone looking to re-do theirs."
"Thank you Bob for your help last year. We were thrilled with the outcome."
"Thank you for everything - Service was #1 and the counters look great!"
"Thank you for your professional design of my new kitchen. I am enjoying cooking and having company more than ever. Especially since there is room for my company to help clean up!
The kitchen looks beautiful. The cabinets are a superior quality and the granite countertops are sparkling.
Bill and I will be recommending Creative Kitchens to anyone who is considering new kitchen cabinets. You were a pleasure to work with, Bob. Thank you for your patiences and professionalism."
"Thanks for such a beautiful kitchen!"
"Bob had a lot of great ideas and suggestions when he designed my kitchen, and his installers did a great job. I'm very happy with the results."
"The kitchen came out beautiful. We are very happy with it."
"After purchasing our older traditional home, the first priority was to redo the outdated kitchen. We chose Lewistown shaker style cabinets from Creative Kitchens By Bob. His design concept completely followed the traditional theme we wanted. The installation went very smoothly, and we couldn't be happier with the results!"
"Love my kitchen & so does everyone who sees it. Hope to work with you in the future."
"Bob is the best! We consulted Bob when we had a difficult kitchen project, a complete renovation of a small and inconvenient space, on a short timeframe, in a difficult location.
The result was a beautifully designed and installed kitchen with maximized efficiency and functionality within a tight space. Although our project was a small one, the customer service from beginning to end was extremely attentive, helpful, and customized to our special needs. Despite the time constraints we had, everything was right on time. Shipments and installations were all well-coordinated, and beautifully executed.
Now the space is so much more useable, and looks just fantastic. A "Creative Kitchen" it really is! We couldn't be more pleased!"
"Thank so much for a job well done. We are very happy with our new kitchen!"
"We love our new kitchen... even the small cabinet behind the sink that I am using to store my heavy duty cutting boards. What do they say about necessity being the mother of invention!!"
"Thank so much. Our kitchen looks amazing!!!"

Review: Oldboy (2003) (Eng Sub.)
"You can't find the right answer if you ask the wrong questions"
*This review may contain spoilers*
Oldboy (2003) is a South Korean Neo-Noir action thriller, co-written and directed by Park Chan-wook (The Handmaiden, Thirst). The film follows Oh Dae-su (played by Choi Min-sik), a drunkard who is imprisoned for 15 years with no reasoning or explanation from his captors. When Oh Dae-su is unexpectedly released, he begins investigating various leads to uncover who imprisoned him and, more importantly, why?
With a run time just shy of 2 hours, there are a lot of plot threads weaved into Oldboy, with all of them culminating in one of the best plot twists seen in a long time. Not a minute passed where I wasn't fully invested in this story and its characters, mainly due to the unpredictability of the plot and the idea that we, as the audience, only know as much as the lead
The unpredictability is immediate. From the very first scene, our protagonist is hanging an unknown victim over a rooftop by the man's tie. Given the theme of revenge underpinning Oldboy (a theme we have seen reworked over and over in recent years), the audience can safely assume that Oh Dae-su has caught up with one of his captors. Later in the film, we come back to this moment and our lead is instead saving an innocent man from suicide, diverting our expectations away from this being another substance-less revenge film. You know the movies I'm getting at, the straight to DVD, bottom shelf at Tesco sequels either starring Steven Seagal or produced by WWE Studios. The one that immediately comes to mind is Kickboxer: Vengeance. They took a reasonably popular solo movie and managed to franchise it for eight movies (yes, I said 8). The film literally has the word Vengeance in its title…
Park Chan-wook knows this, leveraging every chance to divert what you think is happening to what is actually happening. This style gels perfectly with the mystery element, as you can't turn away for fear of missing something important, but it also propels the story forward and makes it impossible to be bored at any point during the film. Immediately after saving this man's life just to tell him his story, Oh Dae-su stands up and walks away abruptly, leaving the man to jump to his death with no remorse. In one simple scene, the audience has been subverted twice and we have confirmed a major trait of our protagonist: he isn't a nice guy. We are not supposed to like Oh Dae-su, but we connect with him because we know as little as he does. He is the vehicle in which we answer 2 burning questions: who and why? Oldboy continues to play with the audience in several scenes, examples including his Shawshank style break out plan (only to be subsequently released) and a torture scene in which the camera focuses on a concealed blade, only for the assailant to be taken away by a phone call.
Good filmmakers understand this principle of "Show, don't tell", and Oldboy uses this to near perfect results. In one scene, our protagonist is questioning a lead for information, but the camera focuses on the lady's knees rather than the conversation. The shot then cuts back to Oh Dae-su looking inquisitively, conveying the information visually that this information is to be important. In isolation, this scene can appear random and creepy, but the movie subtly and visually explains the significance in later scenes. It's a small detail, but one of hundreds in this movie that gives it a great deal of re-watchability. In opposition to this, Park knows when not to show in a violent scene where a character's tongue is cut off by a pair of scissors. Oldboy doesn't shy away from violence, but the camera purposely aims away from the tongue and on the characters hand, gradually pushing down on the scissors in an excruciating scene that will make the squeamish look away
A lot of the intrigue comes from uncovering the conspiracy at the same rate as Oh Dae-su, with director Park Chan-wook telling the story through creative and artistic cinematography. Several voyeuristic shots put you right into the story telling, with one scene adopting some very personal camera work. It depicts a character looking through a broken window to see a couple "getting busy". Handheld camera work can be avoided by some directors, as it can produce the amateur, low budget style shots of a homemade movie. Oldboy instead uses this to produce the illusion that the audience are looking through the glass and witnessing the scene at the same time as this character. In a way we are, as this character has forgotten this event as it was regarded as "not important", but shots like these involve us in the movie on a more personal level, which elevates this movie from good to great. This first-person shot is used again in this movie but to different results. When Oh Dae-su holds up some pills to the camera asking what they are for, his love interest Mi-do responds that they are depositories she used to give him medicine, creatively elevating this line to a funnier joke that hits the mark
This film has a lot of story to tell, applying different methods to tell it effectively and engagingly. Truth being told, I am not the biggest fan of flashback scenes. You see so many movies put a different filter on the camera and try very hard to find a way to artificially cut it into the overall movie. Of course, Oldboy finds a way to break the mould, employing creativity and beautiful cinematography to tell a pivotal scene. The scene follows Oh Dae-su chasing his younger self around his old school, as if he is trying to remember this moment for himself. The scene boasts fresh ideas that look fantastic and are a great way to spice-up what could have been a monotonous flashback.
I cannot finish a review of this film without mentioning the famous corridor fight scene. Given that Oldboy was release in 2003, multiple movies and shows have attempted to recreate this one-shot, realistic hallway fight scene (Daredevil Season 1 comes to mind!). You have likely already seen this scene before even watching the movie as it regularly appears on top 10 lists, but if not, you will recognise similarities to so many of its inspired recreations. It's grounded, gritty and the one-shot element shows real exhaustion from the actors, giving a real believability to every punch. Oh Dae-su isn't portrayed as an untouchable superhero, so the stakes in this fight feel very real. There is some noticeable choreography that doesn't quite hit the mark, but you could say this adds to the grounded and erratic nature of the fight. This scene is fantastic, you'll understand when you see it!
If I must criticise the film in any way, it would be due to the extended third act. After one of cinemas greatest realisations, the film winds down on a heart-breaking scene, seeing characters reach their lowest points in the story and each arch reaching its conclusion. After a shocking death, the story may have been better suited to an open-ended conclusion, following the uncertain and unpredictable style carried throughout the movie. Instead, the film felt somewhat extended with an additional scene. I'm sure there are deeper meanings and analytical points that we can examine from this conclusion, but after the release of all the built-up tension created by not knowing, the last 10 minutes felt a drag compared to pace of the preceding film.
Oldboy boasts so many impressive feats that solidifies its cult following. Strange, violent and powerful, Oldboy covers multiple genres with confidence and class. The sheer mass of movie cannot be soaked up in one viewing, making it highly rewatchable. It covers topics that will have analytical viewers diving into the deeper themes, whilst not excluding the everyday movie viewer just there to see an exciting film. I give Oldboy (2003) a 9/10!
And only because I feel it would be too nice to give a 10/10 on my first review…

This FOA encourages preclinical and clinical research to study whether, and how, different neurodegenerative disease processes interact with one another to initiate and/or hasten progression of neuropathology and dementia.
Etiologic and therapeutic research on dementia has focused on either individual disease syndromes (e.g., Alzheimer's disease, AD; Lewy Body Dementia, LBD, Frontotemporal Dementia, FTD; or Vascular Dementia, VD) or distinct neurodegenerative processes (e.g., beta-amyloid, HPF-Tau, alpha-synuclein, TDP-43, small vessel disease). Aside from descriptive, postmortem neuropathology, different neurodegenerative diseases have generally been investigated in isolation from one another. There are few models for studying whether and how neurodegenerative disease processes relate to one another.
At autopsy, many patients with dementia, particularly older individuals, exhibit multiple neuropathologies: in addition to tau tangles and beta-amyloid plaques, vascular changes, Lewy bodies, and TDP-43 inclusions are often present. We know that the likelihood of antemortem dementia increases with co-occurring postmortem neuropathology. However, despite considerable evidence of interactions between different neuropathologies (see below), we do not understand how different neurodegenerative processes interact and relate to one another.
Co-occurring pathology complicates both pathophysiological investigation and treatment development. For instance, therapies to increase beta-amyloid clearance may be less effective if there is coincident VD or LBD. At the same time, commonalities between neurodegenerative diseases may provide clues to pathophysiological mechanisms. Can multiple neuropathologies interact synergistically to increase disease burden and worsen cognitive impairment? Could there be common pathways leading to synapse loss and cell death that might become targets for drug development? If either speculation is the case, what molecular, cellular, or organismic processes are involved?
We need to understand how different neurodegenerative processes interact clinically and physiologically. We need to be able to more precisely identify which neurodegenerative process or processes are active in individual patients. At the same time, we need to better understand how different neurodegenerative diseases resemble and differ from one another at the molecular, cellular, and organismic levels.
Cellular and animal models for investigating concurrent neurodegenerative processes must be developed if we are to answer many of the questions raised in this FOA.
Development of CSF and PET biomarkers for in vivo brain beta-amyloid plaques and HPF-tau tangles have transformed AD research. In vivo measures for the presence of brain alpha-synuclein and TDP-43 will be important to elucidating how different neurodegenerative processes interact in vivo.
Identifying distinctions: pathophysiologic mechanisms unique to one neuropathologic entity, will be as informative as identifying commonalities.
There is evidence for prion like spread of alpha-synuclein and HPF-tau. HPF-tau can seed alpha-synuclein fibrilization and vice versa. There appear to be distinct HPF-tau and alpha-synuclein strains.
While AD, FTD, and LBD are characterized neuropathologically by deposits of insoluble protein aggregates (amyloids), the actual neurotoxic species all appear to be soluble oligomers.
The ApoE4 allele is a major genetic risk factor for both AD and LBD. How does a gene involved in lipid transport lead to increased beta-amyloid plaques, HPF-Tau tangles, and alpha-synuclein Lewy Bodies?
AD involves both beta-amyloid plaques and HPF-Tau tangles. Neocortical beta-amyloid plaques are the earliest manifestation, but HPF-Tau tangles are more closely associated with cognitive impairment. HPF-tau tangles in entorhinal cortex appear normally with age, and it appears that tau spread beyond entorhinal cortex requires the presence of beta-amyloid plaques. How do beta-amyloid plaques drive spread of HPF-tau tangles?
HPF-tau is an important component of AD and a subtype of FTD (albeit with different mixes of isoforms). What else, besides beta-amyloid, distinguishes AD from other tauopathies?
NIA intends to fund an estimate of 12-15 awards, corresponding to a total of $10 million, for fiscal year 2017. Future year amounts will depend on annual appropriations.


The Old Smugglers entered Smuggler's Cove Studio in late November of 2016 to record their third album. After a few setbacks of personal and professional nature, 8 months later the Smugglers have completed 14 brand new tracks. Next week the studio will begin mixing and mastering as The Old Smugglers work on art and design.
The new album is a step forward for The Infamous Dr. Thunder and Mister December in sound and subject. The fuller sound reflects the depth of the lyrics. The Old Smugglers new songs are about loss, racism, hope, and waking up to a horrible hangover of a political climate.

Dr. Dre Made Game Scrap An Entire Version Of The Documentary 2
SHARES!
Game and Dr. Dre have a long, storied history together. In 2005, Dre's co-sign, executive production and beats helped Game become an instant rap star and his debut album, The Documentary, to have what it took to ultimately become a classic.
But thanks to Game's beef with 50 Cent, he left Aftermath before his second album, Doctor's Advocate. And though he and Dre patched things up, the legendary producer hasn't had a production credit on a Game album since that debut (except for an iTunes bonus on 2012's Jesus Piece).
But with The Documentary 2, out Friday (Oct. 9), Dre is back behind the boards for a few tracks, and, beyond that, his guidance helped shape the album. But not without some bumps in the road.
"I started working on The Documentary 2 like three years ago in Miami," Game told MTV News. "I went through a few different drafts of what it was. Once I played the first for Dre, he was just like, Thumbs down. Not because the music wasn't up to par — it just wasn't Documentary-level."
So the Compton native had to keep pushing.
"I went back to the drawing board. I started again — but, this time, instead of completing it, I just did the first three tracks, and I went and played it for Dre again, and he was like, Nah, this ain't it, neither."
OK. Two strikes. Game wasn't giving up, though. Would third time be a charm?
"So the third time, I did it again, I went and did the first three tracks," he explained. "And I took it to Dre, and he greenlit it. And from there, it was pretty much easy, because I knew what I needed to focus on to get it to its completion."
The final product is a 19-track opus — with a second part due out next Friday — which showcases Game continuing with fierce rhymes he's sharpened over the last decade, again displaying the consistency he's established over that span. With guests like Dre, Kendrick Lamar, Kanye West, Drake, Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg, Diddy and more riding in tow, Game finally found what the mentor
was trying to steer him towards
» FREE DOWNLOAD: The Game "The Documentary 2" (full album)
"What he was looking for was not how the music sounded or if it was dope — 'cause what he told me is that all the music was dope," he said. "What he said is that it just wasn't Documentary-quality. Which means that album — today, it has sold over 14 million records — it was such a classic album, that anything that's a Documentary relative had to sound distinctively the same or better.
"The way that Dre judges things, once he gives you a thumbs up, it's a universal thumbs up. It's because of the production value of albums he's put out and artists he's raised, as far as me, 50, Eminem, the 2Pacs and Snoops. Dre knows what it is, man, so once Dre gives you a thumbs up, you straight."

Brita Sigourney Leads 3 U.S. Women In Making Halfpipe Skiing Olympic Final
By Gary R. Blockus | Feb. 18, 2018, 10:49 p.m. (ET)
Brita Sigourney competes in the freestyle skiing women's ski halfpipe qualification at the Olympic Winter Games PyeongChang 2018 on Feb. 19, 2018 in PyeongChang, South Korea.
Maddie Bowman earned a chance to defend her historic Olympic gold medal, and Devin Logan saw her chances to make more Olympic history fall by the wayside during qualifying for women's halfpipe skiing on Monday morning.
Bowman, who won the gold medal at the first women's halfpipe event four years ago in Sochi, was one of three U.S. women to qualify for the halfpipe skiing final at the Olympic Winter Games PyeongChang 2018 on Monday, laying down an 83.60 to qualify in sixth.
Fellow two-time Olympic teammates Brita Sigourney and Annalisa Drew qualified third and fourth, respectively, but Logan, 24, the first U.S. skier in ever to qualify for both slopestyle and halfpipe skiing in the same Olympic Winter Games, failed to qualify for the final after putting together a fantastic second run only to fall on her final landing to finish 15th, with the top 12 qualifying.
Logan was looking forward to the halfpipe, which many consider her best event. She hit a 71.60 for 14th place after the first run on Monday, but the fall on her final run scored just 25.60.

Logan, also a two-time Olympian, won a silver medal in slopestyle in Sochi, but finished 10th in the event on Saturday – her 25th birthday – and was looking for redemption and a chance to make more history by medaling in the second discipline.
Sigourney, 28, laid down a pair of identical 90.60 scores on her two runs. She set the standard as the fifth skier into the pipe on the first run and hit plenty of big air both times with a variety of 900s, alley-oops, 720 and 540s.
Drew, 24, qualified fourth with an 86.00 set on her second run, marginally improving the 85.40 from her first run. She hit back-to-back 900s to opposite side on both runs.
Sigourney and Drew were 1-2 after their first runs, but were eventually passed on the first run by Canada's Cassie Sharpe, the gold-medal favorite, and France's Marie Martinod, the silver medalist in 2014 and the only skier other than Bowman with to win gold in halfpipe at X Games Aspen since 2013.
The three-run final will be held Tuesday.

It is a situation that few of us are ever likely to face at our level of racing. What am I on about? The choices facing a professional MX racer. For instance, picture the scene, a young lad, doing well is on the up. He's chosen to try and make a living in one of the most precarious occupations there is… that of a professional motocross racer.
These days there is lots of outside sponsors that often shovel money into the scene and expect a spectacle in return from those favoured with sponsorship. Arguably, while the race wins and championship titles are nice, these are often secondary to providing entertainment to a crowd that will see the sponsor's name front and centre. For instance, take a rider like Dougie Lampkin – we in the dirt bike world know he's the trials rider with the most wins ever, he's amassed loads of world titles – indoor and outdoor – SSDT wins, Scott wins and extreme enduro wins to his name and he is still on the go too. Yet, to the public at large they might know him as that lad who rode round the Isle of Man TT course with one wheel of his motorbike in the air… and 'oh, is he a world champion too? Well fancy that.' The public perception of his success is different now to that of, say an MX racer in the late Sixties.

What Women Artists Knew About Work
The lives of figures like Harriet Beecher Stowe and Helen Frankenthaler hold lessons for everyone about focus and perseverance
March 14, 2019 10:28 am ET
In December 1850, Harriet Beecher Stowe wrote to her sister-in-law with a complaint that will sound familiar to anyone who has struggled to carve out time for a creative project. "Since I began this note," Stowe wrote, "I have been called off at least a dozen times—once for the fish-man, to buy a codfish—once to see a man who had brought me some baskets of apples—once to see a book man…then to nurse the baby—then into the kitchen to make a chowder for dinner and now I am at it again, for nothing but deadly determination enables me to ever write—it is rowing against wind and tide."

Alysia Helming's debut novel, 'Protogenesis' offers a completely unique story, where ancient gods and science fiction unite with an American girl in modern Greece
Author Alysia Helming's debut novel, Protogenesis—the first installment in a seven-novel YA series, the "Protogena Chronicles"— hit number one on Amazon in its category, in less than a month after its release. Protogenesis chronicles the story of a young girl, Helene, whose entire life is uprooted upon her mother's sudden, tragic disappearance.
Helene moves to Greece to live with a godfather she has never met with a mission to investigate her mother's mysterious disappearance, which she believes involves the Greek mafia. There, she faces all the usual travails of being a teenager: adjusting to a new school, learning and fitting into a new culture, and navigating her love life.
Soon, she finds herself ensnared in a love triangle, but that is the least of her problems: she finds a mystical portal into a world where Greek mythology and the roots of modern civilization converge. Helene hopes the portal will help her find out what happened to her mother, but whether the Greek gods and goddesses are on her side remains to be seen.
The appeal to teenage girls goes far beyond Helene's relatable problems—as well as her otherworldly ones—and her love triangle. Think DaVinci Code meets Twilight, but no vampires; and instead, Greek gods…where ancient mythology and science fiction unite.
The original theme song to the book, "Forever & Tonight," was created with Greek music star, Kostas Martakis, in collaboration with Panik Records (watch the making of the song video here). Renowned Greek American artist, Philip Tsiaras, designed the book's cover. These experiences enabled her to grasp and unite the "past" of ancient Greece and mythology with the "present" challenging reality that the Greek people currently face, with science fiction and technology offering a "futuristic" twist.
Now, Helming's mission is to help Greece by offering a message of hope and to drive tourism there through her book series. To this end, she collaborated with Panik Entertainment and Filmskin, one of Greece's top Directors, to produce a series of six short films, each cinematically spectacular, in locations following Helene's footsteps through Athens, which will be available soon on a new interactive and animated website www.protogenesis.com. Coming soon!
View the original release on PR Newswire. 211 press and media outlets in the United States picked up this article, while PR Newswire did a special feature of Protogenesis becoming a best-seller in Times Square, NY!


Singletraction (STA) has been approached by Gez Marshall the ranger in charge of the trails at Sutton bank (http://www.northyorkmoors.org.uk/visiting/enjoy-outdoors/cycling/sutton-bank) to get involved with trail maintenance and we think it's a great idea. It puts STA in touch with another major land manager the North Moors National park http://www.northyorkmoors.org.uk and will add another set of skills to the STA armoury low impact, sympathetic maintenance and working with multiple land owners with varying needs and aspirations.
It will be very different from working at a trail centre and will be much more about working with the natural terrain to make it as ride-able as possible in all conditions and to minimise the impact on the landscape.
So to the nitty gritty; our first dig day will be Sunday June 28th the meeting point will be the visitors centre and bike shop at the top of Sutton bank http://www.suttonbankbikes.co.uk at 9:30 a.m. We will meet up with Gez the ranger and share vehicles and move round to the work area. For the first couple of dig days bring tools along until we get things set up properly and don't forget decent boots and gloves. The work area is some distances from the visitors centre so don't forget food and a drink.
Our first project will be to sort out the blue/red return climb in south wood as it heads up through the woods towards the Cleveland way, see the map. The trail is OK when it's dry but not so good in the wet. Our job will be to make it more ride-able in all conditions by sorting out the drainage, a bit or bench cutting to improve the line, removing a few dead roots and finally adding a bit of surface.
This will be followed up with another dig day on Sunday July 26th with a view to making the 4th Sunday in the month the regular dig day at Sutton Bank.
So if you fancy getting involved let us know and we will keep you informed.


Your Golf Travel's Sales Director, Nick Moran, a member at North Hants Golf Club, recently played the course and has come back waxing lyrical about it so felt it only right that we sat him down and got him to talk about his top experience.
What did you know about Troia Golf Course prior to your trip and your thoughts about playing it for the first time?
I'd been looking forward to playing Troia for sometime. A number of YGT Sales Specialists had visited back in April and previously I'd had conversations with friends at my golf club who'd all raved about it. They had all commented about the outstanding layout and design, the amazing value for money to play the course and the journey to get to the course, which can be either a 80-90 minute drive from central Lisbon over the vast Vasco De Gama Bridge (11 miles long / Europe's longest bridge) or a more direct journey south of Lisbon over the 'Ponte 25' bridge (which is like the Golden Gate in San Francisco) and down to Setubal where a short ferry or catamaran crossing takes a few minutes into the local port at Troia. The golf course is located a couple of minutes drive from the quayside – so all in all not your normal journey for a round of golf!
What were your first impressions of Troia Golf Course?
Troia is a maturing country/beach resort and I can imagine it may be popular with families in July-August. However, outside of this period (and Easter) the resort is likely to be quieter and very worth either a 'play and stay' experience based locally or incorporating a day-trip to remember within a traditional Lisbon golf break that tends to base itself around Estoril or Cascais. The course, club house and practice area are tucked away in the dunes to the south of the resort and there is a feeling exclusivity and tranquillity.
The sea can be viewed from most of the holes across the dunes and this is complimented by the holes that meander though the tall pine trees – either Mediterranean or American. Troia reminded me of a seaside Pinehurst in so many ways but with 8 hours less flight time and no jet lag!
I played the course in the 2nd week of November. We had cloudless skies, little wind and 20 degree weather! For me, as the climate continues to change the appeal of golf holidays in September or October lessen and late October – November increases.
What was your favourite hole at Troia Golf Course?
My favourite hole was the par 5, 14th. A long dog leg left into the prevailing wind with sandy waste and pines woods on either side of the tee shot and an enormous sandy waste area on the right hand side of the 2nd shot. A member we played with affectionately called this area 'Iraq' as it was certainly a dangerous area not to get lost in. The green is at the edge of the course near to the sea. I was fortunate enough to make a 5 on the first day and a birdie on the 2nd day. There's also the most incredible elevated Summer House or Man Cave I've ever seen in a nearby garden! (See pic below).
What is your tip for anyone playing Troia Golf Course for the first time?
Take one more club than you need would be my tip and pray from some good lies in the green side bunkers which are deep and very sandy!
Off the course, what should we do around Troia Golf Course?
Where does Troia rank in your own personal Top 100 Golf Courses?
It's right up there, possibly top Top 10! Dubai Creek, Pinehurst No 2, PGA Catalunya Stadium, Valderrama, Royal Porthcawl, Turnberry, Sunningdale Old, The Nicklaus at St Mellion and Trevose are all personal favourites. Can I give a score once I've been back to Lisbon in March and played Penha Longa and the famed – West Cliffs at Praia D'El Rey?!
As you can see Troia Golf Course is befitting of its reputation as one of Europe's best golf courses. With countless options available to base yourself close to Troia or to visit as part of a Lisbon Golf Holiday it is sure to be a popular option for those seeking something different on their next trip. Golf holidays including Troia Golf Course start from £149 including 3 Nights and 2 Rounds of Golf (including 1 round at Troia).
