Ford v Ferrari [] 2020-9-17 20:12
It is a amazing movie. A amazing story, compellingly e Moreno Valley Mall sits on the grounds of the old Riverside International Raceway. In the early quiet of morning, sometimes you can see in a figure in the southern utility corridor. He appears to be wearing a white racing suit and helmet. Folks that see him, call him n Miles died there in 1966.
This ver doesn't have subtitles
Theater review. Possible spoilers. This is one of those rare 2 ½ hour films that actually flies by quickly and is served up best in a amazing theater on a huge screen with lots of Dolby Atmos speakers. Gearheads and auto historians should already know Henry Ford II (Henry the Duece as he was known by his employees) once tried to buy the mid-sixties Ford was mostly known for building boring cars. At the time Lee Iacocca (Jon Bernthal) tried to change that image, first with the Mustang and later with the idea to obtain more involved with racing. The plan was to buy Ferrari who was close to bankruptcy but unmatched on the Formula 1 circuit. Presumably the deal was close to being consummated but Iacocca was backstabbed by the Italians. They wanted no part of being part of Ford, especially when it came to racing. Instead Ford was used to up a competitive bid from Fiat. Enzo Ferrari (Remo Girone) looked beautiful intelligent and he sent the Ford squad home with their tail between their legs. He capped things off by using a string of derogatory epithets ending with Henry being fat.When Iacocca relayed the notice to Henry (Tracy Letts), Ford decided to build a fresh race vehicle with no financial limits. Iacocca and Henry's EVP Leo Beebe (Josh Lucas) were charged with development. Iacocca went looking for a design engineer and a driver. He first went to Carroll Shelby (Matt Damon) who was the only American driver to victory at Le Man. He did it in a Ford powered Cobra of his own design. He agreed but wanted problematic driver Ken Miles (Christian Bale) as his basic es and Shelby had a past which didn't always go well, but Shelby knew Miles would obtain the most out of the vehicle that would eventually be built, the legendary Ford GT 40 (the 40 had to do with ground clearance we learn). We see up close and private how the erasable Miles's temperament, public persona and filterless speech was going to be a problem. Beebe in particular wanted no part of Miles being on the team. It took plenty of manipulation and diversion to obtain Ford's approval, putting friendship and his private finances at amazing itriona Balfe stars as Miles's wife Mollie, but she has small to do in this macho-focused film. The movie by director James Mangold ("Logan" and "Girl, Interrupted") gets all the elements right. Like all biopics, strategic changes are created to let the movie to flow, which it does, e lead up is to the globe popular 24 hours of Le Man set in rural France. Ferrari has won the latest 5 races leading up to 1966. Ford now has a competitive vehicle if not the beauty and prestige of Ferrari. As Shelby tells Ford, "we're lighter and faster and if that doesn't work, we're meaner." Although I didn't think to time it, the race itself seems to run nearly 30 mins and I'm guessing this is where a huge chunk of budget went. From what I know there is minimal CGI. No Lambo's jumping out of skyscrapers or falling off airplanes. Just some damn fine driving and action le and Damon are terrific in their roles. I'm getting whiffs of Oscar. That goes for cinematographer Phedon Papamichael and the editors. One of the best films of the year. Highly recommended.

Well, where to start with this perverse recreation of what is actually a very exciting time in US auto history? I see why they waited until most of those involved were dead to create this. I can understand kind of "churching" some things up, but they create everyone at Ford, except Iacocca, to be a moron and fighting versus Shelby and especially Miles, the whole time. Garbage. Oh well, I guess the little amount of CGI and the use of the repop vehicles create it worth watching if you have nothing else to e relationship wasn't between Shelby and Miles. It was between Miles and Charlie Agapiou. They both worked at e friction with the Ford bureaucracy wasn't between Shelby, Ford 2nd and Leo Beebe. It was from the previous person(Shelby's boss from Aston Martin Racing) that worked on the e race at the beginning at Willow Springs never took place. There was no wrench n Miles liked and respected Ford and even told a reporter to not misconstrue his words when printing them because he appreciated everything they had done for him.Lee Iacocca didn't go to Shelby, Shelby went to him. He wanted cash to develop his cars. His pitch was that he could build vehicles that could spank the Corvette on the race track. He was given some crate engines and $25k. It wasn't until after the development of the Daytona Continental vehicle that he was called back to Dearborn and had a meeting with Ford 2nd and Iacocca about taking over the race program for was Phil Remington and Bob Bondurant that did most of the tuning and improvements to the GT40. Not saying that Miles and Shelby didn't work on it, but Ken Miles said he didn't like the n Miles was not left back in the US for the race at Lemans in 1965. He went. He raced. He DNF due to gearbox n Miles was not expected to victory the Lemans race in 1966. He was designated the rabbit car. This means that he was supposed to drive his vehicle harder so that the other squads would test to hold up and break their in the process of doing so(and possibly breaking his). That's where the whole "7,000 RPM" thing comes from. The 427 was tested on the engine dyno, hooked up to a gearbox and ran just like it would run at Lemans for 24 hours. It did this at 6400 RPM and expected speed of 220 MPH. So, 7,000 RPM was pushing the vehicle harder than what it was tested for(it doesn't sound like much, but this is over a 24hr period).Phil Remington worked very closely with the Ford engineers to support develop the GT40(all versions they worked on). The Shelby squad didn't scoff at the Ford elby did not war with Ford about the 123 finish in 1966. He thought it was a amazing idea.Leo Beebe did have some concerns for how hard Miles was pushing the vehicle in 1966, but nothing like in the is film is like they took about 5 years of vehicle development and mixed it all up and then added a bunch of create believe unicorn dust to it.
It's not the vehicle that wins the race, but the driver.James Mangold's historical action-drama Ford v Ferrari (2019) is a riveting drama with exhilarating vehicle races. You'd think Ford v Ferrari would be an overly macho, testosterone driven, dad movie for desperate adrenaline junkies, but it ends up as a moving tribute to race vehicle driver Ken Miles. Mangold pays homage to Ken Miles and Carroll Shelby for their tireless contributions to improving sports cars' designs and engineering. I was worried Ford v Ferrari was going to be a heavy ad for Fords, but you actually end up respecting the craftsmanship and class of Ferrari more and Ford looks grossly incompetent, pathetically shallow, and disgustingly greedy. If anything, James Mangold criticizes the toxic masculinity, wonderful arrogance, and cold corporatism of Ford's Senior Vice President Leo Beebe that cost Miles his Le Mans title. So, Ford v Ferrari is worth seeing for its unreal racing action, stunning cinematography, outstanding acting, and peerless direction.James Mangold's direction is breathtaking as he sends vehicles flying into horrible crashes, while simultaneously filming touching conversations about why people love driving. His attention to detail in recreating 1966 is beautiful flawless and impressive. I found Mangold's direction for all the vehicle driving sequences to be creative and interesting, but a lot of of the talking drama ends up feeling lackluster. Overall, James Mangold is a phenomenal director with a clear and compelling vision for Ford v ristian Bale is really entertaining with a massive British accent as the abrasive Ken Miles. He plays by his own rules, yet comes across as a genuine family man that just likes to race as a hobby. His brilliant natural racing talent and astounding auto knowledge after just racing a vehicle is intriguing. Matt Damon is brilliant as Carroll Shelby. Damon has a fun chemistry with Bale as they portray Miles and Shelby as having a nice friendship. Their dedication to sports vehicle development, family attention, and sincere friendship makes Ford v Ferrari a amazing itriona Balfe is unbelievable as Mollie Miles. Her chemistry with Bale was really natural and sweet. She seemed like an wonderful woman. Noah Jupe is respectful to Peter Miles with his devotion to his beloved father and mania for vehicle parts and tinkering. His best scenes are the ones where he is worried his father could die in a vehicle fire with genuine fear on his face. Ray McKinnon is likable as Phil Remington. His helpful skills aid Shelby and Miles in their quest for Le Mans victory. Enzo Ferrari is played by a stoic and passionate Remo acy Letts is compelling as a gruff and irritable Henry Ford II. Josh Lucas is such a cruel and annoying jerk as Leo Beebe. He makes the Ford Senior Vice President seem like a loathsome fake and meddlesome fool. Jon Bernthal comes across amazing as Lee Iacocca. His authentic love for vehicles feels very real, especially as Bernthal admires what Ken Miles and Carroll Shelby are rco Beltrami and Buck Sanders' score is thrilling, especially during all the races. Paul Massey, Donald Sylvester, and David Gianmarco's sound editing is awe-inspired with their loud bursts of vehicle explosions and crashes with visceral edon Papamichael's cinematography is fabulous no matter what kind of stage is occurring. The outside night conversation between Miles and his son is unbelievable as well as the heartfelt talks between Miles and Shelby. They have attractive framing. All the sunlight and nighttime shadows are fascinating to look at in Ford v Ferrari.On the other hand, any of the corporate scolding from Ford's CEO are the most bland and oddly written scenes of primary grandstanding. Jez Butterworth, John-Henry Butterworth, and Jason Keller's uninspired dialogue is so strange for such a passionate movie. I liked Bale's random British taunts in the vehicle while Miles is racing, but they are not amazing writing really.Michael McCusker, Dirk Westervelt, and Andrew Buckland's editing is so slick and exciting that Ford v Ferrari's 152 mins speed by like Miles in his Ford sports car. They accomplish these hard cuts that soar high above much of their conclusion, Ford v Ferrari is worth a watch for Christian Bale's sympathetic performance as Ken Miles. I truly think that Bale was robbed of acting awards and that Miles should be remembered fondly for his masterful racing ability. Rest in peace, Ken Miles.
I am a 69 year old woman and not into vehicle racing at all, but in my opinion this film was fantastic! Matt Damon was great, but Christian Bale was totally robbed of getting an Oscar nomination. It's the best performance I think I've ever seen him in. I'm not a film critic and only know what I like, but this film deserves the recognition it's gotten. And who knew Josh Lucas could play such a convincing poor guy?
"Ford v Ferrari" Distributed by 20th Century-Fox Pictures, 152 Minutes, Rated PG-13, Released November 15, 2019:Directed by "Logan" and "The Wolverine" filmmaker James Mangold from a screenplay by Jez Butterworth, John-Henry Butterworth, and Jason Keller, "Ford v Ferrari" tells the story of the American Ford Motor Company's rivalry with the Italian Ferrari Racing Squad in building an automobile to dominate the arduous and grueling annual 24-hour auto race in Le Mans, France.When an attempt in 1963 by American automobile magnate Henry Ford II to purchase the financially troubled Italian Ferrari corporation collapses into bitter recriminations and private insults, the quietly furious Ford dispatches his emissary Lee Iacocca to lure the legendary race vehicle driver Carroll Shelby to Ford Motors to design an automobile capable of beating the perpetual Le Mans winners at Ferrari.A winner at Le Mans in 1959, Shelby was forced to retire from auto racing because of a chronic heart condition. Troubled by rumors in the racing globe that he's lost his nerve, Shelby and the determined squad of eccentric engineers and designers at his financially-strapped fledgling Shelby International company agree to build a winning vehicle for Ford...in 90 days' time To accomplish this automotive miracle, Shelby recruits the support of the hot-tempered British race vehicle driver Ken Miles.When Ford executives resist the notion of hiring the 45-year-old Miles over a younger driver, Shelby explains, "Miles landed at Normandy in a busted tank and drove it all the method across Europe." Later, when Ford attempts to fire the volatile and plain-spoken Miles, Shelby reiterates to the skeptical Iacocca, "You can't buy a win...but you can buy the man who'll give you a shot." And together, Shelby and Miles design and build the fabled Ford GT40 Mk II and create automobile history.With rich and colourful characterizations from Matt Damon as Carroll Shelby and Christian Bale as Ken Miles, "Ford v Ferrari" might well have been titled "Shelby and Miles v Ford"...or during some sequences even "Shelby v Miles"--the dynamic between the smooth-talking Shelby and the explosive Miles erupts early and often. But that's okay--this is the kind of high octane feel-good film in which committed visionaries often settle differences with their fists and share an ice cold bottle of Coca-Cola afterward.But the genuine dynamic of "Ford v Ferrari" is that of individual vs huge business, as the upstart visionaries at Shelby International not only upstage the millionaires, sycophants, and yes-men of the Ford Motor Company, but also use the corporation's sponsorship--and their money--to build the vehicle of the future, and throw a pie into the face of their smug rivals at Ferrari in the bargain. From that perspective, the picture often resembles as sort of rollicking "Animal House" on wheels.But combined with harrowing and jaw-dropping auto racing sequences as Miles and Shelby and company persevere through races at Sebring, Daytona, and Le Mans, "Ford v Ferrari" ultimately works as both an engrossing backstage corporate drama and a spectacularly effective action adventure. As sportscaster Bob Pompeani sometimes notes of the Pittsburgh Penguins, "You won't need your whole seat--only the edge." The tv advertising for "Ford v Ferrari" claims that the picture "has an ending you'll never forget." That's really not true--following a genuinely memorable climax, the picture includes not one but two gratuitous tacked-on endings that are easily the least memorable parts of an otherwise terrific picture. This is one film that should literally conclude at the finish though "Ford v Ferrari" is also being released in IMAX and Dolby Cinema formats, viewers of a certain age might search themselves wishing for a return to the wrap-around Cinerama format, to further augment the already heartstopping scenes which effectively put the viewer into the driver's seat of race vehicles traveling at speeds in excess of 200 MPH. This film easily bests such previous vehicle racing cinematic classics as "Grand Prix" in 1966, 1969's "Winning," and "Le Mans" in 1971...and also quietly becomes one of the best sports films of all time.Featuring memorable supporting performances by Caitriona Balfe as Miles' powerful minded wife, Jon Bernthal as Lee Iacocca, playwright Tracy Letts as an oily Henry Ford II, and Remo Girone as a Godfather-like Enzo Ferrari, "Ford v Ferrari" is earning powerful reviews from the critics, including an approval rating of 92% from Rotten Tomatoes and 81% from Metacritic. The picture is also scoring highly with audiences--released into 3528 theaters across the US and Canada, "Ford v Ferrari" during its opening weekend easily led the Box Office Mojo Top Ten with over $31 million in earnings."Ford v Ferrari" is rated PG-13 for language concerns, action sequences, and some scenes of peril.
((the captions worked on my copy on PC, so, not sure why everyone else was having so a lot of issues))Damon and Bale are simply epic in this film, capturing the two men they portrayed nearly flawlessly. I grew up in a vehicle household, building cars, restoring them, and in my case, some light racing as well. Names like Shelby were commonplace, so I've known the story behind the race for Le Mans since I was a kid. This movie captures that insanity of what FoMoCo was attempting in a method that I feel is probably as accurate as you could obtain in a drama or action film. By far the best fresh movie I've watched in a very long time.
This film was released to DVD and Blu Ray on the 12th of Feb. Amazon still doesn't offer it on physical media. I had to go to Best Buy to purchase it. If I'm going to own a movie, I wish to OWN it. I wish to have it in my house physically. I wish to be able to lend it to friends, and If I ever grow tired of it, I wish to be able to sell it or give it to someone. You can't do any of this with digital versions of a movie.I am not an old out of date curmudgeon, I am quite digital in most aspects of my life, but this fresh trend by entertainment companies (that's what you have become Amazon) to impose a fresh definition of ownership onto consumers really runs counter to my principles. The film is amazing by the way, which is why I now OWN it and have it sitting on a shelf with over 2000 other titles that I consider worth the investment.I hope this is not an indicator of things to come with Amazon.
I can't comment on the movie, as I am hard of hearing and Amazon does not provide subtitles - in English or any other ry disappointing.

The Carroll Shelby Story: Portrayed by Matt Damon in the Hit Film Ford v Ferrari [] 2020-1-18 19:12
I ordered this book after seeing Ford vs. Ferrari. As it turns out, that script is based on less than 10% of this story. Shelby's unstoppable vision and drive could be inspirational to any entrepreneur. He took on the globe of racing and won.
It is a amazing story! I have always admired Mr. Shelby. He certainly achieved his goal of making a special affordable sportscar that still lives today in the Mustang. My only complaint was the poor editing job.
I wanted to buy "The Cobra Story" which isn't available on Kindle. This book appears to cover everything that could be in "The Cobra Story", as it's in Shelby's own words. The latest chapters are the first person words of a person who knew Shelby.
The book is unbelievable its amazing and arrived when estimated would recommend it to anyone with a interest in Shelby
Almost forty years later, the man and the book are still fascinating!! Obtain it while you can.

Ford GT: How Ford Silenced the Critics, Humbled Ferrari and Conquered Le Mans [] 2020-9-23 19:29
Delivered on time as promised, fresh in original plastic wrapper. Happy with book, the text, photos, cover, etc. However I amonce again upset at the lackluster packaging Amazon affords my purchases, even after I have repeatedly requested for more care. This book arrived with absolutely no protection other that the box it arrived in,...loosely bouncing around to dent the upper book corners. Crushed construction paper would have alleviated this at minimal cost. I will hold this in mind in any future purchases from Amazon.
Amazing read on the background between Ford and Ferrari. A lot of period images in the factory, pits, racing and testing. If you're a vehicle development fan or racing fan this is an enjoyable book.
Fascinating and detailed acc of this effort by Henry Ford II to embarrass Enzo Ferrari at his own game. A wealth of photographs, and a lot of biographical information on the principals involved, the ones who created it happen. A highly recommended read.
As the owner of a 2019 Ford Mustang GT (yes, with 6-speed lol) I promise you will have fun this book if you like Fords, Shelby, racing or racing history! The author does a really amazing job explaining the history of Lemans and Ford vs. e film is amazing of course but the book has much more depth and facts and is at least as exciting to me. Obtain this book! You will have fun it for sure.
I liked this book, I actually bought it as a birthday show for myself. And I'm happy with the show I received. Amazing pictures of the sixties carsAnd interesting well written story. I look forward to the Ford versus Ferrari film coming in a few weeks.
I have about every book written about the Ford GT, both factual and in fiction. There is very small that I don't know about the Ford GT and the story of how it materialized. Yet, I really enjoyed this book. For anyone that wasn't around during the Ford GT years, this is the book to read to obtain up to speed. And for the people like me, it still is amazing reading. I learned some from the book and it brought back a lot of facts that have faded from my memory. I highly recommend this book.
This is a huge book with lots of pictures telling the real story of Ford's desire to beat and success in beating Ferrari at Le Mans in 1965 & 1966. It's huge so hard to keep and read. May need to read it resting on a table. It provides insight into racing, in general, how people recognize and handle challenges so there is a broader educational thing going on here. For me, the min-1960s do not seem that long ago but it was almost 55 years and reading tis story tells you also a small about how auto technology has advanced and how much trial & error was a part of technological development even 55 years ago. This is a amazing read if you are interested in the Ford GT or automobile development in general.
The book is high quality, massive paper, and full of unbelievable pictures from the era. Written well in a non-pedantic voice.
Very interesting and informative. Covers the entire Ford GT program from begin to finish, why they started the program, why they ended the program and how they did it. This actually is a huge picture book with an accompanying story. My only complaint is that the pictures sometimes don't match with the story on certain pages, but it is a very complete history and it contains quotes and interviews which were fresh to me. This is the most complete history of the Ford GT and it answered several questions that had nagged at me for a lot of years. If you were a huge fan of the Ford GT-40, MK. II and MK. IV like I was then you will have fun this book.
One of the most comprehensive books written on the GT 40 with a lot of amazing pictures, both color & B&W
How to Rebuild Ford V-8 Engines [] 2020-1-22 23:38
Very informative book, but lacked some information I was looking for.
Amazing book, for the rebuilding of the Ford V* engines. This had a lot of the measurements required and values to place the motor back together.
First time builder, lots of info and pictures.
I have always felt that," more is better." The more info that is available the better informed you should be. This is part of my automotive library for my Bronco.
First off, I have never rebuilt an engine by myself. I watched my cousin step through the process years ago, and recall very small of the process. I just remember the effort he place in. Well, I decided I would give this a test since I had just bought my '79 f150 4x4. The truck came with a knocking motor, and when I debated on the cost of a rebuilt versus rebuilding the one I had, I figured what the heck. The worst that could happen is I was out some time and effort + money. Sometimes, you just gotta take that risk in life. That's a motto I will always stand you know I was completely fresh to engine rebuilds, and honestly, I didn't even know the name of some of the internal parts, such as the lifters, rocker arms, push rods, mains, etc. Allow me say, after going through the step by step process with this book leading me all along, I not only built a powerful 400, but also learned the engine inside and out. If you are a do-it-yourselfer, but this book! It was such a amazing help, I couldn't possibly recommend it more.I tried rating the book 100 stars, but Amazon only allows the 5 - not amazing enough! This book deserves at least another 95!
A small short on 460 info and value train info.
Nice book, shipped promptly.
Very well illistratedand well detailed. Highly recommend it.
I'm rebuilding a 1972 Ford Gran Torino Sport and this book is a amazing one to have if you're doing the engine work yourself.
Amazing info and photos

Go Like Hell: Ford, Ferrari, and Their Battle for Speed and Glory at Le Mans [] 2019-12-23 20:6
I'm a large auto racing fan. I'll obtain that out right away. However, it takes an perfect and accomplished writer to be able to bring excitement to the reader, while at the same time, relating non-fiction that is both relevant and factual. A.J. Baime has done just that! Amazing to learn so much about both Enzo Ferrari and Henry Ford II in the same book. My gosh, John Surtees, John Miles, and Carroll Shelby are all fresh heroes of mine!! Obtain this straight, if you like sports cars, intrigue and action, and exciting reading that relates historical fact in a very readable fashion, you'll love this book!
First of all, being, or having been, a race vehicle nut is helpful if you want to have fun this 1970, after the Ford assault on LeMans I came interested in American Sports Vehicle racing. In '70 - '72 I did some work, nothing to really speak of, with the SCCA out at Bridgehampton through mate at work named Rick that my interests were A through G class sports vehicle racing, FIA Group 5 Sport and Prototype, F-1 Trans Am, Can Am and IROC. NASCAR, INDY and Formula 5000 not so much. I read avidly of the 917, 512 T20 racers but got to the tracks (Watkins Glen, Mosport, Riverside) after they they had been outlawed although I did obtain to personally witness Roger Penske's Sunoco Porsche 917 essentially destroy the Can Am Series in 1973. I had a subscription to Tournament Press/Autoweek for 10 interest in this book was piqued by a man named Jim King, who gives everyday tours at the Shelby American dealership, factory and museum just south of the Mandalay Bay Casino in Paradise is is the history of two men and their cars. Enzo Ferrari and Henry Ford II as well as that awesome racer, vehicle builder and salesman, Carroll ing it is a pleasure and provides a sentimental journey, through what was a very exciting time in international Sportscar and Formula 1 Racing. However, it is just a sampler and points you in different directions at the end of the ime gives you a glimpse into how this period of time and particular cirtance foreshadowed the Global Economy, the Reckoning of Japan's automotive influence, the ascendancy or Ralph Nader and the personality of Carroll Shelby, to name a few. If you wish more you'll have to read more. For example, next on my list "Inside Shelby Racing" by John , "Go Like Hell" provides a valuable and entertaining jumping off point for a dozens of subjects that pertain to, or were influenced by, Sports Vehicle racing in the United States as the country went through radical changes in that period of time known as The Sixties.
I always knew that Ford and Ferrari hated each other, but never quite knew the whole story. AJ Baime does a credible job of exposing how the rift got started, and tells the story of this high-stakes war of automotive titans.=== The Amazing Items ===* Baime does a amazing job of capturing much of the glamorous (and not so glamorous) sides of automotive racing at this level. Racing at this level is played for very high stakes; hundreds of millions of dollars and the very lives of the drivers are on the line, and the tournament is as cut-throat as you would expect.* The personalities are a huge part of the story, and these are treated quite well in the book. Henry Ford II saw Ferrari as giving him the ultimate disrespect, and Ford, being an automotive mogul who controlled billions in technology fought back the best method he could...by challenging Ferrari's technical dominance in their premier events. Truly a clash of titans, fought in the design centers, build , pits and of course on the track.=== The Not-So-Good Items ===* If you are a die-hard racing fan, you might search the choice of material a bit disappointing. A lot of of the technical aspects of racing are mostly glossed over, and you won't search detailed ysis of either racing technology or race strategies.=== Summary ===A very enjoyable book on one of the ultimate business rivalries ever. Two men with huge egos, both of whom were willing to bring tremendous resources to bear on a challenge. I would have preferred more technical info on the racing, but the story and the conflict created for an enjoyable reading experience.
Ford versus Ferrari: The battle for supremacy at Le Mans 1966 [] 2019-12-23 20:7
Perfect author and publisher and topic, an reprint of info and story we all know. Coinciding with the poor movie which is based on Baime' flawed book itself. If it wasn't for Eric Broadley and Lola there'd be no Ford GT. Nothing much can be learned that isn't already known. Recommended for beginners on the topic.
Go Like Hell: Ford, Ferrari and their Battle for Speed and Glory at Le Mans [] 2020-11-9 18:45
If you raced vehicles and motorcycles as I did, this book will take you back to a put that is an experience that takes everything you have, and gives you more than you will ever know. If you have not raced this book will give you some understanding of what it means to race at the highest level; both the immense skill and courage of the "pilots" while racing, and the hours and hours of dedication and effort by squads of amazingly talented people. Then if you fold in the larger than life personalities on a collision course in these Ford vs Ferrari battles it makes for a amazing story.
For people addicted to the vehicle disease this is one super book. I thought I was beautiful tuned in back when Hank Deuce decided to go for Ferrari's jugular. But this book revealed all kinds of items I missed-- huge and little. Huge stuff, like the fact that Enzo Ferrari had an illegitimate son. Small items like Bruce McClaren having one leg shorter than the other. Also a detailed description of Carroll Shelby's Cobra and Mustang GT350 operation at Los Angeles airport. And a lot of fresh information on Ken Miles-- one of my heroes because of his MG Specials. And so much more. I worked for an ad agency on Wilshire Blvd. in L.A. in the mid-'60s and would drive my MG TC home to Redondo Beach on Pacific Coast Highway every night for two reasons: 1. To hear the car's neat exhaust sound in the tunnel under LAX's runway. 2. To drive past the parking lot for Shelby's operation to see row after row of finished Cobras and GT350s. And I would covet them! Huge time! Please don't tell God. Weekends were spent at Riverside, Goleta, Laguna Seca and other tracks watching names in this book race. I didn't give Mr. Baime's book Arsenal of Democracy" a very amazing review because, unlike this Ford/Ferrari book, I didn't really learn anything new. Maybe that's because I've read a lot about Ford in the latest 60 years. But Go Like Hell is really one helluva book so go like hell to order it.
I loved this book! My only want was that it were longer. I hated to see it end. As a teen I followed every Sebring, Daytona and Le Mans race that the author recounts. I lived and breathed vehicle racing in that era, especially the Ford vs Ferrari rivalry. I was also living in Rome, Italy at the time, and the Le Mans race was broadcast on the radio. My mates and I actually listened as the Fords finally this day the GT 40 is my favorite racing vehicle of all time. This book was written just for me and I read it in one sitting. What a amazing story, and what amazing research has gone into this book. As others have pointed out the Ford Tag IV end story is short and the book coverage of the next two Le Mans victories is also short -- as they were by older Ford GT 40s and not the Tag IV. But that's little stuff. Go like Hell is a wild ride!
This is an OUTSTANDING read on the info of the backstory between the Ford and Ferrari competitive effort to victory LeMans in the mid-60s. An outstanding book for gear heads, yet not technical in any sense. My wife read it and thoroughly enjoyed it and she knows almost nothing about vehicles or vehicle companies other than what I've told her. This is a MUST READ before you see the movie!
Go Like Hell isn't quite what I was expecting, but it is certainly worth owning if you're any kind of s:-Does a amazing job telling the overall story surrounding Ford's winning years at LeMans, particularly 1965 and the huge victory in '66. The writer is advertised on the jacket as being associated with Playboy, and that's the sort of writing you should expect.-Lost of human interest stories. The book focuses mainly on the people involved, and their businesses, rather than getting overly deep into mechanical aspects. You'll learn a lot about the people involved, from Ford executives, to drivers, to Mr. Ferrari himself.-Lots of very well-sourced quotes and factoids from a heavy list of interviews. The book includes a bibliography and index which sum to a larger size than most chapters in the book. The level of research is really quite astonishing, and that's lovely to see for such an necessary historical ns:-Lack of mechanical detail. Considering the Ford GT40mk.II will be considered by any gearhead to be the "real" character of this story, you'd expect quite a bit more detail into its interior workings and development. While you do obtain a amazing general overview of the parts involved- particularly the heavy engine- this isn't near the technical manual I would have liked it to be. A amazing example is that the book goes into the Ford "J-Car" program, which implemented a dozens of experimental mechanical designs- none of which are even mentioned when discussing the car. I'll avoid spoilers, but anyone familiar with the story will know there are critical reasons why the fresh parts on the J-Car must be mentioned in any discussion of its history.-Feels a bit "broad" for a vehicle book. Similar to the point about the mechanical detail, the overall tone of the book seems to focus mostly on the people and the broad forces involved. Again, this is perfectly in line for a writer of Playboy, or perhaps think Salon. There's sufficient detail to obtain your vehicle passion going, but you're probably going to wish to obtain on Wikipedia for some of the finer info to really quench your thirst.Any real fan is going to want this book came with a Famous Mechanics style cutaway blueprint of the Mk.II, and the fact that it doesn't have that level of mechanical detail is my only gripe. The human interest stories are top-notch. You'll climb inside the heads of Ferrari, Ford II, Iacocca, Shelby, and a host of drivers- and there's a long list of sources for further reading. Definitely pick this one up.
Amazing small book! The writer, who I've spoken with regarding something my mother spotted in the story; that being a certain man had come from Aston Martin - where my mother was John Wyer's secretary from 1949-56 - this man didn't do any of the things he claimed. My mum knew JW very well, and the likes of a lot of of these drivers.... She took care of this guy named Shelby when he arrived at Aston's in 1954, and my dad took care of the DB3S that Carroll drove in both local UK happenings and LeMans 54. Never being a FORD fan, the GT40 was only a Ford in name because they paid the bill... and supplied the Engine. These first vehicles were all designed and built in England. What they did was great, the amount of $ spend was million times more than "great", whereas the politics and Board of Directors was typical Ford MoCo nonsense.... Phil Hill was booted from team, only to be a HUGE thorn in Henry II side when Phil showed up at LeMans in Jim Halls Chaparrel! It's a amazing read, and if you're from my era you'll know these drivers names... I knew a lot of of them, some came to lunch on off-Sundays like Ritchie. Now they are all gone... I remember when my dad passed away 5+ yrs ago, Shelby called mum, mum said "I have no one to talk to now" Carroll said, "you can talk to me!" And they talked regularly.... almost til the day he went. Amazing men, amazing cars, amazing racing!
I really enjoyed this even as someone who doesn't know much about vehicles and racing other than Ferraris are red and expensive and some of the drivers are cute. Seriously, that's all I knew, but I picked it up anyway after the Ford-Ferrari feud was mentioned by Jeremy Clarkson. I thought it sounded intriguing and indeed it is a very interesting tale of the characters involved, their lives, victories celebrated and tragedies endured. This is not a technical book for the gearhead but rather a story of the human side of a globe that a lot of people may not otherwise obtain a glimpse of.
This is not a not good book, but it is likely to disappoint a lot of buyers. There is not much detail about the races and small more about the technical development of either the Fords or Ferraris. For example the 1967 races at Spa, Monza, the Nurburgring, and the Targa Florio are covered in a total of three paragraphs covering maybe a quarter of a page. Given the limited zone (115 pages of actual text with a lot of pictures), the amount devoted to different biographies seemed excessive and quotes from books by Tag Donohue and Mauro Forghieri are frequent. I obtain the feeling that this was hastily place together to capitalize on the film.
This review is based on the Kindle edition, not that it makes any difference...First, there are NO PHOTOS of any kind in this book! That within itself is outrageous. I am sure there are readers who don't know the difference between Formula One class, GT class, and Prototype class race cars. Some of the most popular vehicles in all three classes are mentioned in this book, but no photos. Some of these cars. arguably, were the most attractive of their type ever produced, but no photos!Second, some of the most legendary and popular drivers are mentioned in this book, but not a single image of anyone!!Third, 35% of this book is taken up by the "footnotes, bibliography, index, and acknowledgements" at the end of the ly, this book ends abruptly with the Fords' win at Le Mans even though the rivalry with Ferrari continued long after that was a huge disappointment considering how much more the author could have place in the book to create it really come alive for the reader...
After seeing the film "Ford versus Ferrari," I was intrigued when this book came as a suggested buy from Amazon. It tells the same story, but with much more emphasis on the Henry Ford II/Enzo Ferrari private war (the film focuses on Carroll Shelby's and Ken Miles' roles in the competition).I'm not a "car person," so I glossed over the detailed descriptions of the cars, how they were built, how they were tested, etc. What I DID search fascinating was the author's recounting of both Ford's and Ferrari's perspectives (in the credits, he says that he based a lot on the Ferrari's memoirs, a biography of Ford, different articles and books, as well as interviews he personally conducted). I really got into it when the author started detailing the try races, the crashes/deaths, the drivers and LeMans races of 1966 and 1967.I was distracted by the ebook's format. In several places, the book referenced "Engl and." At first I thought Engl was a person, then quickly realized that the word was "England." Sometimes the vehicles were Ford GT40s (numeral zero), other times they were GT4os (letter o). Mario Andretti's name was one time shown as And retti.
Truly, a wonderfully written, almost poetic, look back at the Ferrari-Ford battles of the '60s. While the writing is flawless, the same can't be said for the research . All the major players (make that suits) are mentioned. Three names are notably missing, all engineers: Klaus Arning, Ed Hull and Chuck Carrig. Klaus Arning was largely responsible for the design of the suspension on the Ford GT40 (and Cobra II, and Foyt's Coyote Indy cars). Ed Hull was the engineer who designed the Ford J-Car which morphed into the Ford Tag IV that won the 1967 Le Mans race. Chuck Carrig was the computer program whiz responsible for design and development of Detroit's first computer program to calculate suspension geometry, which greatly assisted Klaus Arning in the design of his special anti-squat/anti-dive suspension of the GT40, in what was a rush job to create the 1964 Le Mans endurance race. The use of a computer as a part of chassis design is mentioned on page 89 (but without crediting the engineers behind the programing).The expression "Go Like Hell" that the author has chosen for the title of this book, while not copyrighted and very much part of the public domain, is used several times in my novel "The Ragged Edge" (published in 1999). The first time I heard it was while listening in to the pit chatter of a Chicago-LA flight I happened to be on. The plane had just cleared Chicago airspace and I heard the captain say, in response to the control tower, "time to 'Go like hell.'" I liked the phrase so much I used it to described the impatience of race driver John Wagner, the protagonist of my novel. He loathed standing still and required to always "go like hell," whether on the track or, at, the end of book, en route to Chicago, to victory back his ex-girlfriend, who had walked out on him. The plane he's on over L.A. seems to hover in the sky, making Wagner uneasy. "Go like hell" he says under his breath. When he feels the jet thrust come on, forcing him back into his passenger seat, he feels better. — author Richard Nisley.
This is a spectacular story about the epic clash between Henry Ford II and Enzo Ferrari for win at the 24 hours of LeMans, the world's most grueling auto race. The writing is as amazing as it gets, small info about the men and the race are sprinkled throughout the story, and the author keeps you glued to each page like epoxy. No photos, but who needs them with writing like this? The book moves as quick as a GT-40, but don't hurry your read, because you will be sorry when it , funny, gripping, controversial, and filled with emotions from laughter to to depression, this is a unbelievable book. It is about racing and small else, so if you don't have fun the sport you might not like it; however, this book is so amazing that, unless you despise motor sports, I bet you Kendal book was perfect, no 2

Disney 2021 Daily Calendar [] 2020-8-13 19:33
The quality of the pictures is lacking. The calendar says the pictures are supposed to have memorablequotes and facts from the film but in a lot of cases it was just a summary of the stage or a description of the movie. Also princess and the frog fans will be disappointed by only one picture on 365 days. Going back. May be amazing if you like not good picture quality frozen, and finding Nemo.
The calendar design requires that the base is attached to the calendar days so that you can rip one away each day and have it displayed without the entire contents of the everyday sheets falling over. I have ordered a Disney/Pixar calendar from Mead each year for a lot of years and chose to go with this one from Amazon this year instead, I probably should have stuck with Mead because this calendar is not even attached to the base. Now I have to deal with either sending it back and getting replacement or using hot glue and attempting to fix it myself.

It's adorable! I don't remember when I started buying these calendars, but every year, come July, I order. I buy this primarily for the calendar, of course, I should say that I search that the stickers are not very sticky and tend to come off. I want I could give this 4 1⁄2 stars .
This Pusheen calendar is family favorite. Hanging in our kitchen, everyone can clearly see what day it is upon waking. No more excuses. Plus a small laugh and a smile at the silly kitty.
This is the third year in a row I've had one of these calendars. I work at a children's eye doctor and 88% of families stop and comment on it, or flip through the pages, or see what film is on their birthday. Every day that passes, we tape up on our filing cabinets so the kids can still see the pictures. I really love this!
Somewhat disappointed in the color of picture quality. More on the dull side than vibrant and bold. 1st time buying Disney calendar and day by day calendar. Hopefully as 2020 progresses I will have fun it more.
best collection for me

Current: Built
A coastal county with strong cultural ties to the sea has ensured that Co. Mayo is endowed with rich coastal architecture and significant archaeological heritage. This wealth is reflected in the number of protected structures, national monuments and infrastructure such as lighthouses, piers, bridges etc. There are many fine examples of historic engineering projects that are worthy of national importance including rare examples of rail viaducts, canals, signal towers and coastal defences. We wish to share some of this heritage in the following pages.
An area that is renowned for its excellent fishing grounds Co. Mayo is also infamous for its jagged coastline and treacherous stormy waters. Testament to this there were 6 working lighthouses established in the 1800's to assist with the safe navigation of commercial freight, fishing and leisure vessels. Remote Islands and rocks served as homes to four of these beacons, Eagle Island and Blackrock in open water west of the mullet peninsula, Clare Island and Inishgort at the outer and inner boundaries of Clew Bay respectively. Two land-based beacons one at the entrance to Blacksod Bay and the other at Broadhaven Bay, north and south of the mullet peninsula. All but one remain in operation today, Clare Island lighthouse which was established in 1818 was decommissioned in 1965 and replaced with Achillbeg lighthouse, also in the outer boundary of Clew Bay, in 1965.

The Coast Watch Service
In the uncertain early days of the Second World War the Irish government sought to act to protect the neutrality it had declared in September 1939.  It was decided that a series of lookout posts ["LOPs"] would be built at strategic points along the Irish coastline to monitor belligerent activity at sea. Built by the OPW and Department of Defence with help from local volunteers and contractors, this was a considerable logistical task. The LOPs were manned by coast watchers and the institution they formed was named the Coast Watching Service.
Eighty-two LOPs were built or reconditioned stretching the entire coastline between 1939 and 1942 and each was built in situ to an identical design using 137 pre-cast concrete blocks.  Their construction was one of the most widely spread engineering exercises undertaken by the Irish Defence Forces during the Second World War, located at intervals of five to fifteen miles, from Ballagan Point in County Louth to Inishowen Head in County Donegal. From a heritage perspective, much of Ireland's built heritage was under foreign influence, these unique buildings (LOP'S) represent the first building project of national importance by the Irish State. Basic and unchallenging architecturally, these precast structures formed an integral part of the defences of the State.
There were nine LOP's along the coast of Co. Mayo between Roonagh, (LOP 57) and Kilcummin Head (LOP 65). Many of these posts are still in existence in varying degrees of disintegration. Downpatrick head (LOP 64) is the best preserved of the Co. Mayo posts, located at a Signature Discovery Point on the Wild Atlantic Way, this LOP is ideally placed to inform members of the public and visiting foreign nationals of the important role these unique buildings played in Ireland's neutrality during WWII.

Fortresses, Towers & Abbeys
Rockfleet Castle
Rockfleet or Carraigahowley Castle is a tower house near Newport in County Mayo. It was built in the mid-sixteenth century and is most famously associated with Gráinne Ní Mháille (Granuaile), the 'pirate queen' and chieftain of the Clan O'Malley.
Kildavnet Tower
The Tower at Kildavnet, in the south-east corner of Achill Island, is a perfect example of a 15th century Irish tower house. The Gaelic Chiefs of the time copied a Norman design and constructed many such tower houses. The tower at Kildavnet is thought to have been constructed by the Clan O'Malley in about 1429 but is associated locally with a descendant of the original builders, Grace O'Malley or Granuaile.
Clare Island Castle
Built on Clare Island by the O'Malleys in the 16th century, this castle is a fine example of a tower house. Tower houses were often designed to a standard plan, three or four storeys high with a vault over the ground floor. The roof was pitched slate or thatched roof and was protected by a parapet over the entrance so that stones or other objects could be dropped directly onto attackers. Within the thick walls were staircase passages.
Killala Round Tower
A monastic settlement tower which is composed of limestone, many of the stones being quite large. The doorway is devoid of decoration; however, the three stone arch of the doorway is composed of a light brown sandstone, contrasting with the grey of the rest of the doorway and tower. These sandstone blocks carry through the entire depth of the doorway. About halfway up the drum of the tower, is a noticeable bulge in the stonework. Reports in 1779 mention a damaged roof and damage midway up the tower from lightning. The OPW did some repair work in 1841. Though reports are not specific, the cap and wall were repaired at this time.
Glosh Napoleonic Signal Tower
The Napoleonic signal tower at Glosh on the Mullet Peninsula is one of approximately 80 similar towers built by the British between 1804-1806 as part of an extensive program of coastal defences commissioned in response to the repeated attempts by French forces to invade Ireland most notably those that occurred in 1796 and 1798. There were 8 of these signal towers in Co. Mayo, most are in ruins, the Glosh tower being the best remaining example. https://irishsignalstations.wordpress.com/the-irish-signal-stations/
Rosserk Friary
Rosserk Friary is a friary located in County Mayo, Ireland and a National Monument. located along the river Moy the friary was set up by the third order of Franciscans cicca. 1440.
Moyne Abbey
Moyne Abbey is one of the most impressive ecclesiastical ruins in Mayo and a National Monument. It was founded before the year (1455) by McWilliam Bourke family as a Franciscan friary and consecrated in 1462.
Burrishoole Friary
Situated close to Newport Burrishoole Friary was founded by Sir Richard de Burgo for the Dominican order in 1469. http://www.megalithicireland.com/Burrishoole%20Friary,%20Mayo.html
Murrisk Abbey
Murrisk Abbey is situated on the southern shore of Clew Bay close to Westport below the sacred mountain Croagh Patrick. It was founded in c.1456 by a local chieftain Hugh O'Malley who granted the lands to the Augustinian friars. http://www.megalithicireland.com/index.html
Clare Island Abbey
The medieval church from the 12th century (rebuilt around 1460), known as the Abbey, is unique in Ireland because of the extent of its surviving medieval wall paintings. Only four other such paintwork examples still exist in Ireland & Clare Island's is the most intriguing and best preserved. The abbey gives one of the best opportunities to experience what a medieval painted interior would have looked like. http://www.megalithicireland.com/Clare%20Island%20Abbey,%20Mayo.html
St. Deirbhile's Church
Located near Blacksod are the ruins of St. Deirbhile's Church, a National monument which dates from two periods the original church in 6th century and the ruin visible today in the 12th Century.
Cross Abbey
Located close to Binghamstown the ruins of an Early Christian medieval Church of Cross situated in a graveyard. It is thought that the monastic settlement on Inishglora was moved to Cross in the 10th century retaining the alais Inishglora or Saint Brendan's throughout the medieval period. From the 14th century onwards it became a priory dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary and a dependant on the Abbey of Ballintubber, from which it received its revenue.

Mexican Official Calls to Nationalize Lithium Mines
Some say the proposal would scare off foreign investment.
MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico's largest union group is criticizing calls by the environment secretary to nationalize the country's newly-discovered lithium deposits, considered among the largest in the world.
The Mexican Workers Federation, known as the CTM, claimed the nationalization proposal would scare off foreign investment. The CTM represents some mine workers.
"There is no room for ideological fanaticism. Mining in our country is protected by the law, because it is enormously useful for industry, from food processing to autos to telecommunications," the union federation said in a statement.
Lithium is a key ingredient in the growing market for electric car batteries.
A joint project by Chinese and English companies are developing what may become the largest lithium mine in the world in the northern Mexico state of Sonora. But Environment Secretary Victor Toledo said last week the government should control lithium mining, and then perhaps name a private or government-owned company to run it.
On June 17, Toledo said in an online panel discussion that "we are pushing for, and we hope to achieve, the government nationalization lithium resources."
"The English and Chinese companies are coming already," Toledo said. "Lithium should be nationalized and the government should create a company, which could be private or public, but the government should control the use of lithium."
The Sonora lithium project is being developed by Sonora Lithium, a joint venture of U.K.-based Bacanora Minerals and China's Ganfeng Lithium.
The company says the mine is estimated to hold proven and probable reserves of 4.5 million tons of lithium carbonate-equivalent.

Janise Smith
Janise Smith wants to tell the world about the good works happening in Scarborough. As a community activist and the publisher of snapd Scarborough, Janise is on a mission to capture and promote the suburb's "positive essence" by showcasing fundraisers for our hospitals, public spaces, and non-profit agencies, as well as colourfully documenting achievement recognition ceremonies, milestone occasions, neighbourhood parties—and the people who make it all happen.
"I want to build community through the paper. Media perception that is negative does not represent everything that we love about Scarborough. It's so important to spread joy and a positive light. I love being able to do that through snapd."
As an example of Scarborough at its best, she cites Project Engagement, which brings together local companies, resident volunteers, places of worship, city councillors, police and firefighters to create holiday hampers filled with donated food and supplies for hundreds of local families in need.
Janise, the Communications Chair for the Scarborough Community Renewal Organization, is also the organizer and host of the popular gala, Celebrating the Excellence in Scarborough. The 5th annual event welcomed about 400 people, all proud to recognize everyone from social workers to artists to athletes. Devon White, famous for helping the Toronto Blue Jays win back-to-back World Series in 1992 and 1993, was among the honoured guests this year.
Janise says that when Scarborough's reputation catches up with the reality, and all residents feel proud to live here, that will be the moment when one of her major goals will be accomplished.

  Preview the upcoming organization permission changes

    December 8, 2014

      jakeboxer

UPDATE (2014-12-12): The List your organizations API is now included in this preview as well.

We have some upcoming changes that will affect the way organization members and repositories are managed. The most important changes are:

The Owners team will no longer be special.

The List your repositories API will include organization-owned repositories.

The List user organizations API will only include public organization memberships.

The List your organizations API will require user scope or read:org scope.

What's happening to the Owners team?

Currently, members of your Owners team are administrators of your organization. Soon, your Owners team will become a totally normal team. Adding and removing Owners team members won't change their administrator status anymore. Instead, you'll be able to directly grant admin permissions to your organization's members without adding them to any special teams.

We won't delete your Owners team, but you'll be able to delete or rename it yourself if you want. Organizations created after the change won't have an Owners team.

What should you do?

In preparation for this change to the Owners team, we're releasing a few new APIs. You'll be able to use these APIs to manage organization admins without relying on the Owners team.

Adding an organization admin

To add a new organization admin, use the new Add or update organization membership endpoint, specifying a role of "admin" in the request body. This replaces adding or inviting people to the Owners team.

Removing an organization admin

To remove someone from the organization role but keep them as a member of their teams, use the new Add or update organization membership endpoint, specifying a role of "member" in the request body. This replaces removing people from the Owners team.

Listing organization admins

To get a list of all your organization's admins, use the Organization members list endpoint, specifying a role of "admin" in the query string. This replaces listing the members of the Owners team.

Checking if someone is an organization admin

To check if a given user is an organization admin, use the new Get organization membership endpoint. If the returned "role" attribute is set to "admin" and the returned "state" attribute is set to "active", the user is an organization admin. This replaces checking if a user is on the Owners team.

What's happening to the "List your repositories" API?

Currently, the List your repositories API only returns repositories that are owned by users, not by organizations. If you want a list of all the repositories that the authenticated user has access to, you need to use multiple API methods.

Soon, this API will include all repositories that the authenticated user has access to (whether they're owned by a user or by an organization).

What should you do?

Many apps use the List your repositories API in conjunction with the List your organizations and List organization repositories APIs to build up a list of all the repositories the authenticated user has access to. If your app is doing this, you'll be able to get rid of all the organization-related API calls and just use the List your repositories API.

If your app uses the List your repositories API for another purpose, you'll need to update your app to handle the new organization-owned repositories we'll be returning.

What's happening to the "List user organizations" API?

The List user organizations API is intended provide public organization memberships for any user. When you use this API to fetch your own organizations, this API currently returns your public and private organization memberships.

Soon, this API will only return public organization memberships.

What should you do?

If your app uses the List user organizations API to fetch all of the organization memberships (public and private) for the authenticated user, you'll need to update your app to use the List your organizations API instead. The List your organizations API returns all organizations (public and private) that your app is authorized to access.

What's happening to the "List your organizations" API?

OAuth requests will soon require minimum scopes in order to access the List your organizations API.

Currently, the API response always includes your public organization memberships, regardless of the OAuth scopes associated with your request. If you have user, read:org, write:org, or admin:org scope, the response also includes your private organization memberships.

Soon, this API will only return organizations that your authorization allows you to operate on in some way (e.g., you can list teams with read:org scope, you can publicize your organization membership with user scope, etc.). Therefore, this API will require at least user or read:org scope. (write:org and admin:org scope implicitly include read:org scope.) OAuth requests with insufficient scope will receive a 403 Forbidden response.

What should you do?

If you authenticate via username and password, you are not affected by this change.

If your app only needs to fetch the user's public organization memberships, you should use the List user organizations API instead. Since that API only returns public information, it does not require any scopes.

Preview period

Starting today, these new APIs are available for developers to preview. We expect the preview period to last for four weeks. (Stay tuned to the developer blog for updates.) At the end of the preview period, these additions will become official components of the GitHub API.

While these additions are in their preview period, you'll need to provide the following custom media type in the Accept header:

application/vnd.github.moondragon-preview+json

During the preview period, we may change aspects of these endpoints. If we do, we will announce the changes on the developer blog, but we will not provide any advance notice.

Migration period

At the end of the preview period, we will announce the start of a migration period. At that time, developers should update their applications to use the new APIs for managing organization admins. During this period, you will still be able to use the Owners team to manage your organization's admins, so that you have time to update your applications to use the new APIs without breakage. We expect the migration period to last for four weeks.

At the end of the migration period, the Owners team will no longer be special, and you'll no longer be able to rely on it for managing organization admins.

If you have any questions or feedback, please get in touch with us!

The BRIGHT Otimati Youth Research Clinic in Ilembe had the honour of welcoming dignitaries from the National Department of Health (DoH) Head office in Tshwane. The dignitaries were led by the Director for Communicable Disease Control Ms Tsakani Furumele and the Head of Helminth Control Mrs Takalani Nemungadi. Also present were six of their team members and a representative from the Ilembe DoH, Mrs Nontobeko Ndadane.
This comes as the BRIGHT research team embarks on the world's first a randomized control trial on important research questions. Young women in Ilembe and King Cetshwayo Districts will again be invited for world class investigations. The dignitaries were given a tour of the research clinic and staff members presented the study recruitment activities, from driving to get the high school learners to how they go about with the procedures. The delegation was in KZN for a three day meeting dedicated to several aspects of Helminthic diseases, Bilharzia has been found to be very common in King Cetshwayo and Ilembe Districts.


Chelsea must learn the value of installing a manager who understands the club if they replace Maurizio Sarri over the summer.
Ex-Blue Tony Dorigo reckons club legend Frank Lampard could have a similar impact to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer if he were to be given the reins at Stamford Bridge.
Solskjaer came in as interim manager after Jose Mourinho but has earned a three-year permanent contract with 15 wins in 20 games.
Lampard meanwhile has been cutting his teeth in management at Derby County, currently sixth in the Championship, but has been linked with the Chelsea job as the fans grow tired of Sarri's slow passing style and the team's drab performances.
"It's interesting because I look at the big Premier League sides and try to think of what sort of manager can just step in and take things on straight away," Dorigo told Up Front with James Gray (weekdays 1pm-3pm).
"I think when you get to those big clubs it's really important you understand the mentality and there is no better example than Manchester United bringing Ole back.
"He hasn't got a fantastic managerial record prior to that but he understands that club inside out. He knows what it is to win there and he has been the right recipe for United.
"You could argue that's similar for Frank Lampard. He is so highly respected and knows [Chelsea] inside out.
The Chelsea manager's 'Sarrismo' tactics have infuriated the Stamford Bridge faithful and Sarri's refusal to adapt the system to a league where he has never managed have elicited chants of 'you don't know what you're doing'.
The choice personnel too - N'Golo Kante played out of position and academy products Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Callum Hudson-Odoi barely given a chance in the league - have angered supporters.
Eden Hazard was even left out on Sunday against Cardiff, another unpopular decision with the 3,000 away fans, but Chelsea remain just a point off a top-four place that would take them back to the Champions League.
Dorigo added: "When you look at the table, it doesn't look too bad. Certain decisions the manager has been making though - Loftus-Cheek, Callum Hudson-Odoi, those sorts of players - the fans are clamouring for them to get more game-time and he continues to stick with his tried-and-trusted which is Jorginho and Higuain, neither of whom have set the league alight.
"But this has to be all about results and getting in that Champions League and Chelsea still have a great chance.

Conference Realignment Notes: Report – No Big 12 Expansion & No Big 12 Network
The dream of conference expansion and a conference network are reportedly no longer a reality.
Photo via Daniel X. O'Neil @ Flickr
According to Horns Digest's Chip Brown the Big 12 will not expand and the Big 12 will not have any sort of Big 12 network:
The bottom line is there is no consensus on any non-Power Five candidates to add.
And the league's primary TV partners – ESPN and Fox – aren't exactly knocking down doors right now to start a conference network with the current 10 schools, the sources told HD.
Combine that with the varied third-tier media rights agreements across the league – most with years still left on them, and it's a lot of contracts that would have to be rewritten or broken. Again, for what?
This reads more like an editorial more than anything else as Brown walks through the past decade or so regarding the Big 12 and realignment. Brown even goes so far as to say that TAMU was leaving, regardless of the Big 12 network, which I don't know if I believe or not, but whatever.
Either way, this was the likely scenario with Big 12 expansion, which is nothing. No real candiates, no network. Although I don't know if I agree with much of anything that Bob Bowlsby says, I do believe he was being truthful when he said that the Big 12 will be disadvantaged in comparison to the other Power Five conferences:
"If we do nothing," Bowlsby said at the Big 12's meetings earlier this month, "we will be substantially behind a decade from now."
This was never more true than right now as CBS Sports Jon Solomon totals what each conference member of the Power Five are to receive and the Big 12 is last among the Power Five teams, although $31 million of the revenue for the ACC is from the exit fee paid by Maryland:
Each conference's approximate 2014-15 payouts per school:
SEC $32.7 million
Big Ten $32.4 million
ACC $27 million
Pac-12 $25.1 million
Big 12 $23.3 million.
It should also be noted that Bob Bowlsby is the lowest paid commissioner, at $2.6 million, although to be fair, the Big Ten's Jim Delaney also makes $2.6 million and the ACC's John Swofford makes $2.7 million.

Ashurst adtlaw update 06 Sep 2018
Turf Club Auto Emporium v Yeo Boon Hua
The UK courts have, over time, come to recognise a "non-traditional" form of awarding damages in cases where the claimant has suffered no loss as a result of a breach of contract. Known eponymously as Wrotham Park damages or "negotiating" damages, they are awarded based on a reasonable sum that would have been demanded by the claimant as quid pro quo for releasing the party in breach from the obligation to perform a covenant in a contract.
In Turf Club Auto Emporium Pte Ltd and others v Yeo Boong Hua and another appeal [2018] SGCA 44, the Singapore Court of Appeal (CA) accepted for the first time the availability of Wrotham Park damages in Singapore law.
The case concerned a dispute between two groups of parties who entered into a joint venture in 2001 to develop a large plot of land. The first group (SAA Group) included the appellants and a company known as Singapore Agro Agricultural Pte Ltd (SAA). The second group comprised the respondents.
Pursuant to the joint venture, two joint venture companies (JV Companies) were incorporated with the parties holding shares in each company. SAA obtained a head lease over the land from the Singapore Land Authority and granted corresponding sub-tenancies to the JV Companies, which in turn granted sub-sub-tenancies to ultimate tenants.
While the land was being developed, the two groups fell into dispute and litigation ensued. This litigation resulted in the two groups entering into a settlement by way of an order of court by consent (Consent Order). The purpose of the Consent Order was to bring about an end to the joint venture by providing for a bidding exercise pursuant to which the higher bidder would purchase the shares of the lower bidder. External auditors were appointed to supervise the bidding exercise and to value the shares of the JV Companies.
Before the valuation of shares in the JV Companies was completed, SAA renewed the head lease for a further three years but did not grant corresponding sub-tenancies to the JV Companies. Neither the respondents nor the external auditors were informed of this development. As a result, the valuation of the JV Companies did not take into account the newly-renewed head lease and the earning capacities of the JV Companies in the period after the expiry of the original head lease.
The CA found that the SAA Group was in breach of, amongst others, an obligation in the Consent Order to preserve the status quo until the conclusion of the bidding exercise. It was accepted by all parties that would be difficult to assess the pecuniary loss suffered by the respondents as a result of the SAA Group's breaches. Consequently, parties focused on the issue of what remedies should follow from the breaches and, in particular, whether there was scope for an award of Wrotham Park damages.
The CA held that Wrotham Park damages are available under Singapore law, but declined to award them on the facts of the case.
Wrotham Park damages are compensatory in nature
At the outset, the CA determined that Wrotham Park damages are compensatory (as opposed to restitutionary) in nature in that they are aimed at compensating the claimant for the loss of his performance interest due to the breach of contract.
Legal requirements for an award of Wrotham Park damages
Three legal requirements need to be satisfied before a court can award Wrotham Park damages:
Orthodox damages (i.e., damages measured by reference to the expectation or reliance loss) and specific relief in the form of an injunction or specific performance are unavailable;
The breach of contract in question concerns the breach of a negative covenant (i.e., an obligation not to commit an act);
It must not be irrational or totally unrealistic to expect the parties to bargain for the release of the relevant (negative) covenant, even if only on a hypothetical basis.
On the facts of the case, the respondents were unable to satisfy the first and third requirements. Quantification of the respondents' loss, although difficult, was not impossible. The CA also found it irrational and totally unrealistic to imagine a hypothetical scenario where the parties would enter into a bargain for the release of the obligation to refrain from upsetting the status quo as that would defeat the entire purpose of the Consent Order.
Wrotham Park damages are to be measured by such a sum of money as might reasonably have been demanded by the claimant as a "licence fee" for excusing performance of the negative covenant. The actual gain obtained by the party in breach by breaching the negative covenant does not itself form the basis of the award of Wrotham Park damages, but is a relevant consideration in a court's consideration of the appropriate amount of damages to be awarded. As a matter of principle, it is possible for Wrotham Park damages to be awarded even if the party in breach did not actually receive any gain.
Prior to this, Wrotham Park damages have been referred to, but never awarded, by the Singapore courts. Given that Wrotham Park damages have come to be established as a part of English common law, the CA's definitive acceptance of it as part of Singapore law is a welcome clarification on the issue. The careful and comprehensive analysis by the CA also provides useful guidance on how to approach the issue.
However, commercial parties should be wary of being relying too heavily on the availability of Wrotham Park damages in Singapore. The legal requirements imposed by the CA are strict and specifically targeted at preventing the widespread award of such damages. In particular, commercial parties would be well-advised to remember that Wrotham Park damages will only be awarded if it is impossible to assess the loss suffered by the claimant as a result of the breach. Mere difficulty in showing loss will not suffice, even if such difficulty may be significant.
