The Envelope Please: How to Watch All 9 Best Picture Nominees
Posted by adventuresinralphieland on February 5, 2018 February 5, 2018
I challenged myself to watch all the best picture nominees this year – before the actual ceremony. In case you plan to binge watch them, here is a review on each and in the order, I think you should watch them in. (Oh ya, spoilers ahead.)
Get Out. Start here, especially if you're not into indie, historic, or typical Oscar-nominated films.
What it's about: The reason you should not date a crazy white girl, who's family lives in the suburbs. It's a little bit Hannibal Lecture meets Scream. There are some lobotomies conducted in the basement, and people get invited to bid on physical attributes of people to put their brains into. (Ya, creep factor = 8).
Why you should see it: Jordan Peele better known for comedies, challenges himself with the twisted storyline to this one. It's a good entry into the next 8 movies you'll have to complete.
What it's about: A mute cleaning lady, Elisa falls in love with a captured sea creature at high-security government lab in 1963 Baltimore. She frees him in a Beauty & the Beast like plotline and ends up one with him in the sea.
Why you should see it: Octavia Spencer is part of "The Help" at the lab acting as Elisa's voice, and it's a Guillermo del Toro – ever weird but with great messaging even if the central character is mute.
What it's about: Winston Churchill and his rise to power during World War II as Prime Minister of Great Britain and how he must try to figure out negotiations with Nazi Germany.
Why you should see it: Gary Oldman does a magnificent job of portraying Churchill both in personal and his work life. Oldman delivers the speeches in stirring oratory just as Churchill was famous for during wartime giving the British lion its roar during the darkest days of World War II.
What it's about: 1950's post-war London, The House of Woodcock makes dresses for high end society. Reyonlds Woodcock (Daniel Day-Lewis), a bachelor has women coming in and out of his life as his muses and companions, relying on his sister Cyril to let them know when he is done with them. He meets Alma (Vicky Krieps), a waitress while visiting his country home. In a tale of Pretty Woman meets Misery, Alma who is strong-willed does everything in her power to not be another notch on Woodcock's post, even to the point of poisoning him to sickness, and nursing him back to health – as if he needs her to be there the whole time.
Why you should see it: Don't. It's weird AF, but Daniel Day-Lewis and Vicky Krieps deliver some strong acting. With the exception of a few notes sewn into the dresses produced by The House of Woodcock, the title served no purpose. Also, the poisoning thing – outright strange.
What it's about: Justice. A mom whose daughter is raped purchases three billboards outside of a rural town asking why the local law enforcement hasn't done anything about her daughter's crime in months. Along the way, the several societal themes come out: police brutality, domestic abuse, racism, cancer/suicide/right to die, and more.
Why you should see it: Because it will likely win Best Picture. Frances McDormand delivers a performance that will captivate every emotion you can possibly feel in 120 minutes – the grieving heart of a mother who lost a child, the independence of someone who was left for a younger woman, and the leader of a community that wants nothing more than peace for herself and others.
What it's about: May 1940. Germany advanced into France, trapping allied troops on the beaches of Dunkirk. Under air and ground cover from British and French forces, troops are slowly and methodically evacuated from the beach using every serviceable naval and civilian vessel that could be found. At the end of this heroic mission, 330,000 French, British, Belgian and Dutch soldiers were safely evacuated.
Why you should see it: It's where Darkest Hour left of, and of course you want to see how it all came to be. Director, Christopher Nolan develops a multitude of characters – including Mr. Dawson and his son Peter who set out on his boat Moonstone rather than let the navy take her. The movie ends with one of the characters reading Churchill's address to the nation.
What it's about: Katharine Graham is the first female publisher of a major American newspaper – The Washington Post. With help from editor Ben Bradlee, Graham races to catch up with The New York Times to expose a massive cover-up of government secrets that spans three decades and four U.S. presidents. Together, they must overcome their differences as they risk their careers and personal lives.
Why you should see it: If you're like me and love media and news – this is one for you. Also, put Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks together, and it's a winning combination. Katharine Graham (Streep) gets put in this position and must decide to print the secrets during a time when The Post is about to go public risking it all financially, or doing what the press is about and reporting on the news. What's also great is the real recorded conversations that Nixon had during his time in the White House were used in the film. #PreWatergate
What it's about: Every summer fling you ever had and did not want to end. Summer 1983. 17-year-old Elio Perlman (Timotheé Chalamet) is spending the days with his family at their 17th-century villa in Lombardy in Northern Italy. He soon meets Oliver, a handsome doctoral student who's working as an intern for his father. They have a summer fling, and the rest is history – until of course Oliver must travel back to the states, breaking Elio's heart later to reveal he is getting married.
Why you should see it: Because it might also win Best Picture. Also, it's set in Italy and its gorgeous. It's a great story about first loves and parent's acceptance of Elio. It is also one of two films that Chalamet is in, and the two pieces challenge his spectrum of acting.
What it's about: Sacramento 2002. Catholic school. Senior year. A coming of age saga. Christine "Lady Bird" McPherson is an outspoken teen who lives with her parents, with whom she has a strained relationship [mostly her mother, who has to work a double shift at the mental hospital because her dad is recently out of work], her older brother, who is adopted, and his girlfriend. She's BFF with Julianne "Julie" Steffans, and together they decide to join their school's theatre program, where Lady Bird meets Danny O'Neill. They develop a romantic relationship, leading to Lady Bird joining Danny's family for Thanksgiving. Danny is found making out with a boy, thus ending things. In comes Kyle Scheible, a sort of emo-musician who she meets working at a coffee shop. He and Lady Bird begin a romantic relationship, and she begins to drift away from Julie in favor of a friendship with a popular girl named Jenna Walton. [Oh ya, Lady Bird is trying to leave all this and has secretly applied to schools in New York, under her mother's radar.]
Why you should see it (last): Probably the most comic of the nine – and a great way to end your binge watching. Lady Bird is just trying to make ends with what she has – and live her best life. While she's trying to get out of Sacramento, you discover she really loves her life there and the people, especially her mother. She has her Mean Girls moment when she opts to hang with Jenna instead of Julie, but then has a Romy & Michelle moment when she ends up going to prom with Juile, after that lying SOB Kyle takes her virginity. The film ends as Lady Bird moves to New York, and her mother cannot come to terms with it. Her father sneaks in the rough draft letters her mother has written for her into her suitcase. The themes of mental health, adoption, age-ism, and coming out [best scene: when Danny weeps with her behind the coffee shop] are part of this film. And the best supporting actor goes to a star, Danny and Lady Bird named, Bruce.
If you decide to watch the films, some theaters are offering a movie pass for all of them in the last two weeks of February. Check your local listings. As for me my vote is for Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.

I look at the Boomer generation as fitting the famed bell curve. In the curve, things start small and slow then grow to be fast and large then shrink to slow and small. We, the Boomer Trailers, are the small and slow end of the shrinkage. As a result, we are somewhat invisible.
I think of music. The big name bands like Led Zeppelin, I mention them because I was introduced to them by Vol-E, whose members were born in the starting small slow end of the Bell Curve, burst into the world at the large and fast end of the curve boomed with the result that everyone remembers them over many bands who came after. I am also one who remember them and I watch them on TV these days on oldies shows. I challenge you to name a Trailing Boomer band whose name is a big as Led Zeppelin.


Most attendees at a secretive gathering of political and business honchos regarded Donald Trump to be a "disaster" and won't vote for him, according to an email hacked from former Secretary of State Colin Powell's Gmail account.
Powell wrote that he had just returned from the Bohemian Grove — described by the Washington Post as "where the rich and powerful go to misbehave".
Bohemian Grove is a 2,700-acre campground in Monte Rio, California where Powell in July attended the annual secretive meeting.
"Peter, I am back from the Bohemian Grove. Surprise, surprise, I sat next to Stephen Harper a couple of times and had a nice discussion. Grove attendees know that Trump is a disaster. Most will vote against, but quite a few will not vote for Hillary and will vote for a third party candidate. Strange doings down here. Otherwise all is well with the Powells. We'll sneak away for a few days in August. Of course I'd love to see you. Let me know your dates. I told Stephen that you seemed quite content in your new place in life.
The email was addressed to Canadian politician and lawyer Peter Gordon MacKay, a former Canadian Member of Parliament, who also served as Minister of Justice and Attorney General, Minister of National Defense, and Minister of Foreign Affairs.
Stephen Harper, referenced in the email, served as Canada's prime minister from Feb. 6, 2006 to Nov. 4, 2015.
In a previous email to MacKay, Powell wrote about the policy of not bringing communication devices to Bohemian Grove.
"Every July, some of the richest and most powerful men in the world gather at a 2,700 acre campground in Monte Rio, Calif., for two weeks of heavy drinking, super-secret talks, druid worship (the group insists they are simply 'revering the Redwoods'), and other rituals.
"Their purpose: to escape the 'frontier culture,' or uncivilized interests, of common men.


An image is the data and metadata required to create a new VM. The "data" is one or more compressed ZFS filesystems (for Zones) or ZVols (for KVM instances) which will be cloned to create a new VM. The "metadata" describes, in JSON, the data and outlines the specification for a machine that would utilize it.
'''published_at''': A timestamp for the date of publication on an image server (this does not need to be accurate); to output the current time in the proper format use the command: date +"%Y-%m-%dT%T.000Z"


In an attempt to both provide added services to students and help curb the growing problem of music piracy on college campuses, many universities have implemented legal digital music services. The Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) was one of these universities, where the Cdigix Ctrax service is provided to students. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of such a strategy, Information Technology Services (ITS) at RIT requested the services of Dr. Samuel McQuade, who administered a Webbased survey to all Ctrax users and an equal number of randomly selected non-Ctrax using students at RIT. In total, 447 students responded to the survey. This thesis represents a secondary analysis of the data gathered from that survey within the context of social learning. The findings reveal that social learning theory provides a useful framework for explaining illegitimate P2P at RIT and potentially on college campuses across the nation.


By using an Apple USB Network Adapter (which does work on Windows) and using the USB pass-through feature of VMWare Workstation it is possible for a single machine to be connected to two different networks without voilating your IT security policy.
When I need direct internet access on the virtual machine then that is achieved by disconnecting the adapter and temporarily changing the virtual network adapter mode from host to bridged/nat.
This setup allows the best of both worlds, simultaneous direct internet access and access to corporate resources such as bug trackers, source control, email, intranet and timesheet systems.
I find some form of direct internet connectivity is an absolute must when doing mobile development otherwise productivty tends to go out the window. If you are in the unfortunate circumstance whereby you have to use a Windows NTLM based authentication proxy server on Mac OSX then I suggest reading this article for a solution.

Dr. Rausch received his undergraduate degree from the University of Florida and graduated from veterinary school at the University of Wisconsin in 1999. He then completed a one-year internship in medicine and surgery at The Animal Medical Center in New York City and then went on to pursue three years of specialized residency training in Small Animal Cardiology at North Carolina State University under the mentorship of three cardiologists. He became board-certified in cardiology in 2003 and made Portland his home that same year.
Dr. Rausch has authored and co-authored papers in the Journal of Veterinary Cardiology, the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association and the Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine. His clinical focus is on maintaining the best possible quality of life in dogs and cats with heart disease. In his free time he enjoys cycling, cooking and eating, and he can also be found playing in a local bluegrass band.
Courtney enjoys managing congenital and acquired heart disease in all animals as well as developing close bonds with her patients and their families. When she is not working, Courtney enjoys gardening and spending time outdoors with her husband and children, as well as their four-legged family members— a French bulldog who was diagnosed and treated for pulmonic stenosis and two Sphynx cats.
I'm a Pacific Northwest native with a passion for pit bulls, vegan food and the outdoors. I grew up in a home that was always full of animals of all kinds, and I wouldn't have had it any other way. Now I'm down to one spoiled-rotten pit bull, Goliath. He likes peanut butter, nylabones and digging holes on the beach.
I couldn't be happier to be a part of the team at Portland Veterinary Cardiology and I'm so excited to meet your furry family member(s) and treat them as my own.
I have always had a soft spot in my heart for animals. I have been in the veterinary field several years and feel incredibly blessed to be able to love and care for animals every day. I have 3 amazing fur-kids who have me wrapped around their little paws: Sadie the Golen Lab Mix, Lola the Heeler/Border Collie, and Jensen the Red Heeler. We love it here in the PNW- our outdoor adventures are beautifully endless!
My career in veterinary medicine began in in 2003. At that time I was still in my home state of Connecticut where I lived, worked, and went to school until I moved to Portland in 2010. I was raised around animals and have always felt a connection to them; I feel a very similar connection to humans and plants. Oregon has been great for me, my grandfather (my mother's father) was raised in Silverton, so perhaps I'm drawn to this place naturally. I love gardening, and many of the other things the Pacific NW has to offer. I enjoy growing both flowers, and vegetables.
In addition to growing things and being around animals, I like art (photography in particular), literature, films, cooking, thrifting, and going out with friends. My sidekick is Lulu, a two year old chihuahua-terrier mix who weighs six pounds and has a huge personality. I also have a handsome and funny cat called Blueberry. I adopted both of them after settling into Portland. Currently I am working towards a bachelor degree in sociocultural anthropology, with a special interest in medical anthropology.
The newest member of our team is Don Fritto - a 1-year-old mutt who drops in occasionally whenever someone on our team is in desperate need of a hug.

WEEK 49 (2021) – LOCKDOWNS NOT NEEDED?
You may have heard of a germ called 'Omicron'. If you rearrange the letters it becomes 'Moronic' which just about sums up what the governments and their paymaster Pharma Mafia think of us. If you are following my Health Care and immune plans you have nothing to worry about (at any age). The Pharma Mafia and their puppets are getting desperate as the truth is getting worldwide publicity and I am featuring two pieces of news to highlight why they are so desperate.
Thirty-five years ago, my mother died of lung disease at age 62, and my 64-year-old father died a short while later of cancer. I researched the causes of their deaths in-depth.
I soon found evidence that the majority of diseases that people prematurely die from are mainly preventable. I discovered that these diseases are generally caused by an unhealthy diet, lack of critical nutrients, lifestyle factors – that create sick bodies.
I found the profit-motivated pharmaceutical companies lied about these causes to sell drugs at a huge profit and bribe the medical business and politicians. Since I have followed my health plan, I celebrated my 75th birthday last January feeling genuinely fit and healthy, and for the past 35 years have helped hundreds of thousands of people to get healthy.
First News Item, $20 Million Payoff!!!
Professor Sarah Gilbert, the Oxford 'puppet' scientist behind Astrazeneca's Jag, is set to land a payday of as much as $20m (£15m) as her Jag start-up prepares for its stock market debut. Gilbert is understood to be sitting on millions of dollars worth of shares in biotech firm Vaccitech, which is expected to list in an initial public offering (IPO) in New York later this year.
So, the 'back story?' was that Oxford University wanted the jag to go out for free but the Gates Gang persuaded them and AstraZeneca not to do that. Now we see why. The people we pay to teach and research at university can have a nice little sideline taking the research from others over the past 20 years such as Dr Robert Malone (mRNA Inventor) to quickly stitch together a 'killer' jag (in record time) and make her first payday of $20million for starters. The Gates Gang has shares in AstraZeneca (and all of the Jags" of course and they are set to make hundreds of $billions from these Jags. This is starting to look like the biggest money heist in history.
Second News Item, Much Nicer
It's a story that the main countries around the world do not want you to hear. Whether it's Australia, Germany, Spain, the UK, the EU most states in the USA (except, Florida and eleven other states). They are all in the pay of the Pharma Mafia.
This is the story of the biggest State in India and also one of the poorest with 220 million people, Utter Pradesh. It's compared to one of the smallest States which is also the wealthiest with 38 million people, Kerala. This is an article written by Juan Quintero on December 7, 2021 at TrialSiteNews
You can read the whole article and references article here but I will cover some of the key points that make a mockery of Jags and lockdowns below.
The pandemic, fuelled by the highly transmissible Delta variant, raged in India between April and May 2021 with a period of intense mainstream media coverage. Numerous broadcasts and articles depicted hospitals with no beds available, crematoriums at full capacity, and large unsatisfied oxygen demand. Literally, a month later and India contained its CV outbreak. However, the media offered few reports of the vigorous recovery generally—no systematic effort to explain how the world's second-most populous nation turned this crisis around in so little time. Why so little interest in such an important, historic reversal of such an intense, massive crisis? Rather as conditions dramatically improved in June most cameras and subsequent stories faded away to other pandemic hot spots. But what Indian health authorities did in fact accomplish should have been front and center news for the entire world.
India's Strategy
India's strategy is not a secret. In fact, at least part of the protocol of turnaround became a public-facing document in the form of a new national treatment protocol. Publicized in late April 2021 by the Minister of Health and other health authorities the guidelines can still be observed via the Minister of Health website. India's latest protocol comprises the use of ivermectin and inhaled budesonide as early treatment. Most states embraced the new protocol, with a few opting for other approaches. [1]
A successful case
Leading the dramatic turnaround from the CV surge was the state of Uttar Pradesh, India's most populous with approximately 220 million people. An independent media tracking the pandemic praised this state's pandemic management. The brilliance of the public health-led initiatives in Uttar Pradesh didn't escape the notice of the world's health agency. The World Health Organization (WHO) acknowledged the Uttar Pradesh public health effort twice.[2] [3] Its program comprised 141,610 teams distributed in 97,941 villages. Organized to proactively detect and treat cases, teams of two went from house to house in a direct, orchestrated effort to contain the pathogen's transmission. Upon virus detection, early-onset treatment commenced immediately. Along with each case the Uttar Pradesh outreach teams identified at least 15 contacts per patient. In a population-wide effort, health units usually in pairs were instructed to test all household contacts and proactively treat all contacts testing positive.[4]
Uttar Pradesh introduced ivermectin early in the second wave. Since then, ivermectin become the primary treatment and prophylactic medicine in the state. In April 2021, to treat the Delta variant, the protocol comprises seven medicines: Ivermectin, azithromycin, doxycycline, paracetamol, vitamin C, Quercetin vitamin D3, aspirin and zinc.[5] By July 2021, Uttar Pradesh's results were excellent, but they kept the program and the outstanding results progressed ongoing. When comparing Uttar Pradesh with regions or countries with similar populations, the difference is striking.
Most Indian states implemented early treatment approaches, but the state of Kerala decided against such a move—perhaps due to oppositional special interests such as unfortunately the WHO itself. Until this day, this state opts against treating asymptomatic and mild cases. Early in the pandemic, the United Nations recognized Kerala's health minister for her successful handling of the pandemic. Yet, since June 2021, the data indicates a far different outcome. Kerala has become the exception in India's overall success story. With a population of approximately 36 million, Kerala represents one of India's wealthiest, boasting the highest human development index in the nation of 1.4 billion people.
Kerala CV protocol
On April 25, 2021, Kerala's government modified their CV treatment guidelines.[6] The document recommended ivermectin to treat (late) patients with shortness of breath or comorbidities. The guide also introduced budesonide to treat patients if symptoms persist for over 5 days. Kerala's government changed the protocol again on August 6. The document dropped ivermectin and introduced monoclonal antibodies to treat high-risk patients.[7] But until now no systematic review of the results was available.
You can read the references and article here
Everything the Pharma/Medical Mafia is telling you is a lie. The PCR test, the Jags, the dramatically expensive drugs such monoclonal antibodies, Merck's Molnupiravir, Remdesivir and other pharmaceuticals such as Roche's tocilizumab. These drugs cost many thousands for a course of treatment and some have serious side effects. Compare this to a few hundred at most with this plan below.
The Great news from India and other countries mainlining on Ivermectin and nutrients is that Jags are not needed and whatever diseases everyone is suffering from are easily cleared up with this plan. Over 1 billion people proved it.
The Immune Basics For Prevention Or Treatment
Everyone especially if you have been jagged. You need this as your own immune system may be compromised. Take at the first sign or take occasionally preventatively.
Ivermectin aka Animal De-Wormer. 12mg tablet with or just after breakfast containing some fat. (It needs fat to dissolve eg Yoghurt)
Vitamin C with Quercetin take 3 times per day
Vitamin D3 4000iu x 2 times per day
Olive Leaf Extract + Zinc (1cap x 2 times per day only if you are not already taking a supplement with Zinc)
DIP Daily Immune Protection 1 cap x 2 times per day
Magnesium OIl ULTRA massage into mail muscle morning or night.
IVM Animal de-Wormer

In addition to the two SK Sprint-Jeløy teams, 194 other teams from 36 different countries played in Boys 14. They were divided into 47 different groups, whereof SK Sprint-Jeløy 1 could be found in Group 44 together with IFK Klagshamn, Stångebro United 2 and FC Komeetat.
SK Sprint-Jeløy 1 continued to Play off A after reaching 1:st place in Group 44. In the playoff they made it to 1/32 Final, but lost it against Åtvidabergs FF with 4-5. In the Final, Lizzy Football Club won over SKF Bulgaria and became the winner of Play off A in Boys 14.
SK Sprint-Jeløy also participated in Boys 13 during Gothia Cup 2017. They reached the 1/16 Final in B13 Play off B, but lost it against Goliardicapolis 1993 with 0-3.


The shop of H. M. Fletcher, 27, Cecil Court, is a masterpiece in the deceptive art of disorganisation. Most of the fittings have become collectable. Bill likes it that way – nothing pretentious, just solid old stuff built to last, from the bakelite telephone to the hairy string and the brown lino. The stock is arranged entirely at random beneath the most enormous waterstain. They've had several floods – problems upstairs – but the books mostly survive. And anyway, the better things go in the glass case.
'When Winnie Myers decided to specialise in autographs, she sold most of her father's bookcases. This one was too big for the auctioneer, so I bought it for a tenner. The shop's a bit like Topsy. It just growed. In the old days, the floor was piled high with books, and people used to think, "I bet he doesn't know what he's got in there". When I had to swap things round to fit in Winnie's bookcase, I sold more books in the chaos on the floor than when the same books had been neatly shelved. This is the kind of shop I like to visit.
'After Porchester Road, my father took Charlie Sawyer's old shop at 23 New Oxford Street in 1927. I spent six months in Paris in 1930, working for Gumuchian for whom I had bought a great many of the books in his famous children's catalogue, Les Livres d'Enfance. This was shortly after the Great Crash, when we went out of business, bankrupt – couldn't pay the overdraft or anything else much. My father closed 23 New Oxford Street and tried to start again from home in Enfield. Somehow we kept our nerve and carried on, and by 1937 we were in Cecil Court. During the Depression we were extremely lucky to pick up a contract with an American department store, and that really started us off again. They wanted bindings, which we used to supply at 1s. 6d. each. I went all over the country filling a secondhand Morris Oxford with books for the Americans. We polished and invoiced them, waited for the money, and then off in the car again.
'Although we survived, those days certainly left their scar. Today if I can't afford a book, I don't buy it. All this credit business! I used to expect to be paid at once, but I'm getting a bit fed up with it now. And I tend to forget how much it costs me to give credit. All I know about the business side is that I pay money into the bank and take some out. That's all there is to it. I've never been hungry and I've had some good books.
'My father always said, "If you don't specialise, you'll never do any good". I started to think about this in the 1920s, and I still haven't thought up a subject! I love being a general bookseller – I can buy whatever I like, and the choice is much greater.
'Perhaps it sounds as if I have no regrets. Actually, I do have one – I should have married my wife a long time before I did. But I suppose you want to hear about books! There were a couple that got away. I remember a dealer in modern first editions coming here with a 1543 edition of Copernicus, which I bought for £300. It had a long Greek inscription and Zeno in Denmark Street translated it for me. Apparently it said something like, "The learned man is speaking to the ignorant man. And the ignorant man asks, 'What is in this book?' And the learned man replies, 'All that is new."' It went on and on, and finally it was inscribed by Aurifaber to Camerarius, two of the greatest scientists of the sixteenth century. Aurifaber had been given the copy by Rheticus, who is known to have shown this work to Copernicus on his death-bed.
I sold this book to the Robinsons in Pall Mall for £2,000, and they kept it for a long time. In 1974, it made £44,000 at Sotheby's, some 20 years after I bought it. Someone said to me, "Don't you wish you'd kept it?" But actually I didn't, because £2,000 was the biggest lump of money I'd ever had in my life. But when it sold again for £250,000, I really should have kept it!
'Then there was the Fouquet manuscript, which I sold to an American for £7,000. I found it in Paris and thought there was a chance it might be by the great master. Someone at Christie's agreed it looked very much like his work. Anyway my customer really did his homework. It was Fouquet, and worth half a million pounds!
'Basically I'm only interested in selling to someone who wants to buy. We did catalogues till about 1967, but I much prefer selling to a customer in the shop. If I'm asked a question, I'll answer it as fully as I can – even to the point of saying, "No, you don't want that one". But I'll also say, "If you miss it, you'll never get another!" I'm an enthusiast for books, and that's what I hope to impart.
'I never worry about stock not shifting. It usually means the right person hasn't come along and one day he'll walk in and say, "I've been looking for that for years!" And I'll say, "We've had it for years! Where've you been?" I suppose we could have sold more books if we'd done more catalogues. I was never very enthusiastic about them. It's a mistake to over-describe. Of course I want to know the facts, but you should always leave a little bit of excitement for someone else to discover. I can buy books well without knowing a thing about them!
'It's the emotional impact of the book, rather than the bibliographical aspect -rather like the rapport with certain customers. They come in here for two minutes, and I know they're serious. Just after the War, I corresponded with a great Rackham collector in the States. He was a real enthusiast and I just supplied and supplied him. It turned out that he had kept all my letters and one day his daughter came in and returned them. I know you're thinking about 84, Charing Cross Road, but I'm not going to do anything with them!
'Helene Hanff glamorised everything. That's her prerogative. But I know Charing Cross Road and Marks & Co. intimately, and the book just doesn't ring true. Of course there were a lot of wonderful characters. Take old man Joseph, and his wife who stood in the front shop with an apron for all the money. Old Joe gave away four or five overcoats to the winos every winter, and told his wife he lost them. Jack Joseph was just the same. He would spend half an hour in here arguing over sixpence, and then give ten shillings to a wino on the make.
'Then there was Joe Edwards. He came up to see my father when he had just opened in Porchester Road. There wasn't much stock and Joe was a bit concerned: "Not much doing here, Fletcher. Come down to Marylebone High Street. I've got a mountain of books that want moving." "Sorry, Joe. Can't afford them." "How much can you afford?" "25 pounds." "Just the bloody price!" So the books were moved up to Porchester Road and, a week later, Joe came back and spent £45. That's the way to do it !


Throughout the United States, certain cities are beer hotspots, places where the brewing scene has, for some reason or another, exploded in recent years and people flock to taste a specific brew known to that region. Immediately, places like Burlington (VT), Ashville (NC) and Grand Rapids (MI) come to mind, however there's one city that is almost always the top destination for beer drinkers – San Diego.
With more than 100 breweries in California's San Diego county, there are plenty of places to grab a West Coast style India Pale Ale, perhaps the area's most notable beer category, and more. It's home to several of the country's larger craft beer manufacturers including Stone Brewing Company, Ballast Point Brewing Company, Modern Times Beer and Green Flash Brewing Company – and many others that offer ridiculously delicious brews that might fly below most hipster's radar. But next year San Diego will add another notch in its belt, when the Museum of Beer opens in the city's East Village section.
The brainchild of a group of beer-loving entrepreneurs, the Museum of Beer – or MoB for short – will be a unique way for drinkers to learn about the beverage, its history and the progression of the brewing process throughout time. It'll feature immersive high-tech, sometimes hands-on, exhibits, all while exploring how specific beers are made and where those beers might've originated. And San Diego will also be heavily included in the museum, as visitors will learn all about the city's beer history and how it's become a brewing hotspot. MoB looks like it'll be on the cutting edge and offer everything for casual and serious beer drinkers, including a stage which we imagine would be for hosting local musicians.
The museum will be housed in an almost 12,000-square-foot space and will offer visitors the same kind of sensory experience craft beer snobs note while drinking beer, not to mention a variety of different tasting opportunities. With a beer garden and artisinal pizza kitchen on sight, there will be plenty of chances to relax and enjoy a beer from one of San Diego's well known breweries and pair it with your favorite slice. There will even be a featured bottle list, curated with some of the best limited releases, and rare beers, from around the country.
This will not be the first beer-styled museum in the United States, however, as Brew: The Museum of Beer has already had a segmented opening in downtown Pittsburgh. To help better introduce this upcoming project, the creators will host a Q&A forum for locals who'd like to learn more about the Museum of Beer. For now, we will just have to patiently wait until it opens in 2020 – and maybe plan a stop around San Diego Comic Con.

De Airbus A340-300 is een viermotorig verkeersvliegtuig voor de lange afstanden en maakt deel uit van de Airbus A340-familie.

Het vliegtuig werd tegelijk met de Airbus A330 ontwikkeld en heeft ook duidelijke overeenkomsten. Het vliegtuig is geschikt om 375 tot 440 passagiers te vervoeren over een afstand van ongeveer 11.500 kilometer. De meeste maatschappijen die met dit type vliegen hebben echter een configuratie waarin plaats is voor 295 passagiers. Het vliegbereik betreft dan 13.500 kilometer.

De eerste A340-300, met het registratienummer F-WWJH, maakte haar eerste vlucht op 25 augustus 1995. Acht maanden later, op 17 april 1996, werd de eerste A340-300 aan "launch customer" Singapore Airlines geleverd. De A340-300 onderscheidt zich met haar voorganger (de A340-200) door een langere romp en een hoger start- en landingsgewicht. Een nadeel van de A340-300 is echter het kleinere vliegbereik, maar dit werd opgevangen door de productie van de A340-313X. Dit type heeft vrijwel exact dezelfde vliegeigenschappen maar heeft weer betere prestaties dan zowel de A340-200 en de A340-300. Het vermogen bij de eerste A340-300's werd geleverd door de CFM56-5C2, de nieuwere A340-313X al door de CFM56-5CM. Deze motor levert 34.000 lb vermogen waardoor het startgewicht op ruim 270.000 kg komt te liggen. De cockpit is vrijwel hetzelfde als die van de A330. Het enige verschil is het dashboard voor 4 motoren in plaats van 2 .

Volunteer Work Bulletin
Swiss Volunteering Survey
Since its foundation in 1810, the Swiss Society for the Common Good (SSCG) has encouraged active involvement from Switzerland's civilian population. Since 2001, it has paid particular attention to carrying out research into and promoting voluntary work. The SSCG firmly believes that voluntary work is the glue that holds societies based on solidarity together and that in the long term many vital social services can be guaranteed and financed only through the encouragement of voluntary work.
In the past, the SSCG has promoted voluntary work in the following areas:
Publishing of the Swiss Volunteering Survey
Publication of the "Volunteering" series by Seismo-Verlag
Support for research work
An annual convention on voluntary work and community spirit
Promotional partnerships with third-party projects involving a high level of voluntary work
Cooperation with the Swiss Network for Voluntary Work
Promotion of voluntary work in the SSCG's own programmes and projects
Job Caddie: Work integration supervised by voluntary mentors
Unlike most neighbouring countries, Switzerland has no state-supervised volunteering strategy and does not carry out systematic research into voluntary work. The SSCG, therefore, decided in 2002 to conduct a broad-sweeping survey on the status quo of voluntary commitment in Switzerland and thus create a well-documented source of information for research into the country's volunteering efforts. Following studies in 2007, 2010 and 2016, the SSCG plans to carry out a fourth research project into the status of voluntary work in Switzerland and publish it in the Swiss Volunteering Survey 2020. Two-thirds of the questions in the survey will be identical to those of 2007, 2010 and 2016, which should help us to highlight trends in voluntary activity in Switzerland. The remaining questions will serve to provide fresh insights into the issue of voluntary work. The Volunteering Survey is a scientific instrument with a practical orientation and was designed to identify the level of willingness for public commitment and at the same time serve as an indicator of social change.
The Swiss Volunteering Survey was originally initiated and is maintained by the SSCG and is sponsored by the Migros Cultural Percentage and the Beisheim Foundation, as well as 30 other partner organizations. It is supported by the Federal Statistical Office and is under the scientific guidance of the research institute Lamprecht & Stamm with the collaboration of the survey institute LINK.
The Swiss Volunteering Survey project group, under the aegis of the SSCG and its Volunteering Research Committee, is responsible for the operation of the survey.
The members of the project group are:
Jeannette Behringer, Society & Ethics department of the Evangelical Reformed national church of Zurich
Sandro Cattacin, Directeur de l'Institut de recherches sociologiques, Université de Genève
Peter Farago, former director of FORS, Université de Lausanne
Cornelia Hürzeler, Head of the Work and Society Project for the Migros Cultural Percentage
Patrizia Rezzoli, CEO, Beisheim Foundation
Lukas Niederberger, General Manager of the SSCG
Jacqueline Schön-Bühlmann, Federal Statistical Office, Neuchâtel
Emmanuelle Sierro Schenk, founder of Compétences-bénévoles, Nyon
Swiss Volunteering Survey 2020
The Swiss Volunteering Survey 2020 provides information on the current state of voluntary activity. It is already the fourth Volunteering Survey the Swiss Society for the Common Good (SSCG) has published since 2006 with the support of the Migros Culture Percentage, the Beisheim Foundation, the Federal Statistical Office and 30 other partner organisations. For the latest edition of the Swiss Volunteering Survey, in 2019 some 5,000 people answered detailed questions about their social engagement. Participants were selected randomly by the Federal Statistical Office from population registers and represent the Swiss residential population from the age of 15. The most important results can be summarised as follows.
Volunteering is a broad field. Not only does the Swiss Volunteering Survey show how much voluntary work is being done in Switzerland, but also that there are many different forms of engagement and areas of activity, and that the respective motives, potential, challenges and support measures can differ greatly.
The Swiss population are very socially engaged: 39 percent of the population from the age of 15 do formal voluntary work within clubs and organisations; 46 percent carry out informal voluntary work outside the context of clubs or organisations by working as carers, looking after or providing assistance to others, or helping out with events and projects. Donations are another form of voluntary activity: 71 percent of the population donate money, 7 percent give blood.
Switzerland is a country of clubs and associations. The fact that so many volunteers come from clubs, associations and non-profit organisations can partly be explained by their high membership rates. Three-quarters of the Swiss population above the age of 15 are members of a club, association or non-profit organisation, with 61 percent of the population playing an active role in them. Sports clubs have the most members, followed by games, hobby and leisure clubs, cultural associations and religious communities, churches and church-affiliated organisations.
The number of volunteers has remained astonishingly stable. The past ten years have seen neither a marked decline nor a clear increase in voluntary activity. There has not been an obvious rise or fall in the proportion of people making donations or carrying out formal or informal voluntary work. However, what is true of voluntary work in general does not apply to the different areas of voluntary work. While there has been a decrease in formal volunteering in sport, interest groups and public service, there are now more volunteers in games, hobby and leisure clubs, cultural associations, and social and charity organisations.
The social profile of those performing formal voluntary work may change in the coming years. A disproportionately high number of men, people aged between 45 and 74, and residents of rural areas and German-speaking Switzerland belong to clubs, associations and non-profit organisations. Better educated people, higher earners, Swiss passport-holders and parents of children aged over six also display greater-than-average engagement. However, the potential of these population groups seems to be increasingly exhausted. Women, younger people, residents of French- and Italian-speaking Switzerland, city dwellers, and foreigners living in Switzerland are very willing to perform more formal voluntary work in future.
Although voluntary work is by definition unpaid, the Swiss Volunteering Survey also looked into various forms of non-profit activity which were compensated either financially or materially. Recognition for the work most often came in the form of gestures such as lunch or dinner invitations. One in five people who carry out formal voluntary work receive financial compensation beyond their expenses. Men are more likely to receive financial compensation, and the payments are higher than those made to women. Honorary roles are generally more likely to be financially compensated, especially if these are political or public in nature. Strictly speaking, voluntary work that is financially compensated in the form of fees, fixed remunerations or attendance fees should be considered as a not-for-profit commitment and not as voluntary work, even if the survey respondent views and characterises it as such.
Informal voluntary work often takes the form of unpaid care work, and the people who are supported and cared for are often relatives or acquaintances of the helper. Unlike formal voluntary work, informal voluntary work is more often done by women. Many informal volunteers are retired and care for their grandchildren as well as their elderly parents. Established moral obligations mean that this kind of care work, which takes place within the family, cannot strictly be considered voluntary work, even if the survey respondents subjectively viewed and characterised these services as voluntary work. The Volunteer Survey therefore distinguishes between informal voluntary work in the strictest sense and informal voluntary work in a broader sense.
Helping out in the neighbourhood is a widespread phenomenon. During the course of a year, 72 percent of the population from the age of 15 perform small tasks in their neighbourhood such as helping with minor chores, emptying letter boxes and watering plants. Neighbourhood help is as common in the city as it is in the countryside.
The willingness to donate and the size of the donation increase with age and available income. Proportionate to their respective incomes, though, high-earners are no more generous than people with low incomes. Older people donate very often to help young people and children, to fight disease, and to care for the sick.
The internet and the sharing economy offer promising new forms of voluntary activity. Internet volunteers are often young men who live in cities. A great deal of internet volunteering happens within the framework of formal volunteering in clubs and organisations, though a good third of it is done online only. With regard to the sharing economy, younger people are not alone in showing a great willingness to share personal items such as books, tools, their car or even their apartment. However, the more personal an item is, the less likely someone is to want to share it.
People who carry out formal voluntary work want to get involved with others to make a difference, help them, better themselves while doing so, and develop their knowledge and skills all while having fun. Financial compensation, on the other hand, is rarely mentioned as a motivating factor; the challenge, variety and responsibility involved are stronger incentives. The great majority of people who hold a voluntary post are satisfied with their voluntary work and would return to the role in future.
The reasons for ending a voluntary commitment are primarily personal in nature – most notably the difficulty of juggling voluntary work with a job or family. Other reasons for stopping include excessive bureaucracy or a lack of time, recognition or team spirit.
Although many people are already volunteering in one form or another, there is still unexploited potential: the fundamental willingness to begin or renew a voluntary commitment is present. The conditions for starting (or restarting) voluntary work are: sufficient time, a good cause, flexibility and a functioning team. An engagement in social, charitable, environmental and animal protection organisations seems to appeal particularly to those new to volunteering.
The idea of helping is central to informal volunteering. The focus is on social contact – often intergenerational – and on the sense of being needed and giving something back. But it is also about developing one's own knowledge and experience, fostering contact networks, enjoying different experiences and having fun. A sizeable number of volunteers would like more support from other relatives or the government in their work as caregivers.
Voluntary activity encourages trust in other people: people who carry out voluntary work are significantly more trusting of others than those who don't. Those who volunteer in clubs, associations and organisations are particularly trusting. Volunteering also has an effect on people's trust in political institutions, but not on their trust in science and the media.
The broad presentation of volunteering and voluntary work in the 2020 Survey makes it clear how strong the engagement of the Swiss population is, as well as how varied the forms of engagement and the motivations behind it can be. But it also shows that the boundaries it shares with gainful employment on the one hand, and caregiving in the immediate family on the other, are fluid. There is a need here for a more in-depth discussion on how voluntary work is characterised and defined in future.

Tiger Woods Reflects on His U.S. Open History That Pre-Dates His Competition
MAMARONECK, N.Y. — It has been 20 years since Tiger Woods won his first United States Open by 15 strokes, which remains the largest margin of victory in the event. Two years later, golf's leaders sought a new populism embodied by Woods, who learned the game on a municipal golf course. For the first time, America's golf championship was contested at a public-owned facility, Bethpage Black in a New York state park. Woods won again.
It has been 12 years since Woods last won the U.S. Open, in 2008, although that year he needed a 19-hole playoff to defeat Rocco Mediate, a 45-year-old with a creaky back.
Let's pause a second to note the irony as Woods, with a back that has been surgically repaired four times, enters his 22nd U.S. Open this week as he awaits his 45th birthday in December.
There's a lot of golf history in Woods's previous appearances at the event, something he did not dismiss when meeting with reporters Tuesday at Winged Foot Golf Club, where the championship begins Thursday. The memories, good and bad, flashed through the decades. And yet, the most amusing, and telling, Tiger-related reminiscence came from the defending U.S. Open champion, Gary Woodland, who recently appeared at an outing with Woods.
Woods was wearing his green jacket commemorating his 2019 Masters victory. Woodland brought the trophy that goes with a U.S. Open victory.
"I had the trophy with me and was giving him a hard time that his name was only on there twice," Woodland said Tuesday.
Woods did not see the humor.
"It's three times," he corrected in a millisecond.
It has been a tough year for Woods, and not just because even his friends, like Woodland, sometimes fail to remember the finer details of his greatness. His ailing back, almost miraculously stable and supple during his mesmerizing 2019 Masters victory, has been an intractable hindrance in the worst of times and an unpredictable wild card in the best of times — or a combination of both.
Thursday, Woods will be paired with Dustin Johnson, who was 2 years old when Woods played his first Open.Credit…Hilary Swift for The New York Times
At the Memorial Tournament in July, with his back feeling fluid, Woods shot a one-under-par 71 in the first round. The next day, he winced and limped to a four-over-par 76 when sudden back stiffness made a full swing impossible. Afterward, an unruffled Woods did not seem surprised — or perturbed.
"So you never know exactly what you're going to have each day?" I asked him.
He smiled and replied: "It's going to happen more times than not."

The Coronavirus Outbreak
Sports and the Virus
Updated Sept. 15, 2020
Here's what's happening as the world of sports slowly comes back to life:
Fans can debate whether this season's baseball records really count. But M.L.B.'s official historian insists the achievements are as real as any other.
The Superdome in New Orleans had a dystopian feel as football returned without one of its most loyal congregations of fans. Oh, and Tom Brady flopped as the Saints beat the Buccaneers.
The United States Tennis Association has no regrets about holding a U.S. Open without fans, Roger Federer or Rafael Nadal.
Woods has played six times this year (not counting the charity exhibition match with Phil Mickelson, Tom Brady and Peyton Manning) and his best finish was a tie for ninth in late January. In the six months since that result, the best he has done is tie for 37th, with four finishes outside the top 50.
At tournaments, Woods's disposition, which could run the gamut in his prime, is now almost always measured and cooperative. On Tuesday, he did not break form when asked to summarize his season so far. He sounded like a golfer of any stripe after a spate of poor play: He missed putts, made some swing mistakes and put the ball in the wrong spots.
"I've compounded mistakes," he said.
As one of the few golfers in the vast field who participated in the last U.S. Open held at Winged Foot, in 2006, Woods was asked what advice he could give his colleagues as they try to tackle a golf course renowned for its fearsome challenge. There wasn't too much he could say since he missed the cut that year, the first time he had done so at a major championship.
But there was another piece to his 2006 U.S. Open story.
About a month after he tied for third at the 2006 Masters and failed to win the tournament for the fourth time, his father, Earl Woods, died. Woods did not play again until that year's next major, at Winged Foot in June.
"Yeah, when I didn't win the Masters that year, that was really tough to take because that was the last event my dad was ever going to watch me play," Woods said Tuesday.
Looking ahead to that year's U.S. Open, Woods said: "Frankly, when I got ready for this event, I didn't really put in the time. I didn't really put in the practice." He was not prepared to play, but added: "After that, I probably did some pretty good grieving."
A month later, he won the British Open and six more times that year, including the 2006 P.G.A. Championship.
In the chill of Tuesday morning, Woods played a practice round with a 22-year-old amateur, John Augenstein, who was not alive when Woods first played in the U.S. Open. The third member of the group was Justin Thomas, 27, who grew up idolizing Woods, even if he was only two years old when Tiger struck his first shot in a U.S. Open.
Thursday, Thomas and Woods will be paired in the first round. It will nonetheless be a first for Woods.
Never before has Woods played a round in the U.S. Open without a massive gallery following him. Because of the coronavirus pandemic, spectators have been barred from this year's championship.
But looking ahead to Thursday, Thomas, the world's third-ranked golfer, said he will recognize a bit of history when he sees it.
"I'll know that's the fewest amount of people he's played in front of since he was about four," Thomas said.

Q: Azure function app blob trigger cannot upload file I've created a blob trigger that accepts a file from a blob, unzips it and moves it to another blob using streams.
My code looks like this
[FunctionName("Requests")]
[StorageAccount("samplecontainer")]
public static void Run([BlobTrigger("incoming/{name}")]Stream myBlob,
    [Blob("processing/{name}.xml", FileAccess.Write)] TextWriter output,
    string name, ILogger log)
{
    log.LogInformation($"C# Blob trigger function Processed blob\n Name:{name} \n Size: {myBlob.Length} Bytes");
    string returnValue;

    using (Stream blob = myBlob)
    {
        using (GZipStream decompressionStream = new GZipStream(blob, CompressionMode.Decompress))
        {
            log.LogInformation($"Unzipping file");
            name = name.Replace(".gz", "");
            var content = String.Empty;
            using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(decompressionStream))
            {
                content = reader.ReadToEnd();
                reader.Close();

            }
            returnValue = content;
        }
    }
    log.LogInformation($"C# Blob trigger function finished processing blob\n Name:{name} \n Now writing to xml");
    output.WriteLine(returnValue);
}

This will in fact work while running this locally using "AzureWebJobsStorage": "UseDevelopmentStorage=true" in my local.settings.json file.
However, once I've deployed this app and upload a file to the real container using Azure Storage Explorer nothing happens and the activity log shows that the operation failed in Write.Tiny.txt.gz, Could not find file 'D:\home\site\wwwroot\Requests\tiny.txt.gz'.
I have http triggers that do work, and I have tried turning off the configuration WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE to no effect. Am I maybe missing some setting or config?
When I console into this path in the function app and cat the function.json I get this:
{
  "generatedBy": "Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Functions-1.0.29",
  "configurationSource": "attributes",
  "bindings": [
    {
      "type": "blobTrigger",
      "connection": "samplecontainer",
      "path": "incoming/{name}",
      "name": "myBlob"
    }
  ],
  "disabled": false,
  "scriptFile": "../bin/azure-functions.dll",
  "entryPoint": "Requests.Run"
}

A: OK, I can reproduce your problem.
Since you can work on local, then it should be no problem about your code.
I can explain why this happened. Your function app on azure don't have the RBAC that can write data to azure blob storage.
Below steps can solve the problem:
First, create identity of your function app.

Second, add RBAC role of your function app to storage account.

By the way, the above settings will not take effect immediately, you need to wait a few minutes for it to take effect.

A: I fully believe I also needed Bowman Zhu's answer for this to work, but in my specific case I had forgotten to add the storage account as a connection string in my appSettings.json, as we had recently updated to Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.Storage version 3 and this was our first blob trigger.
In appSettings.json:
{
  "ConnectionStrings": {
    "AzureWebJobsStorage": "{endpoint}"
  }
}

Exciting news! We are delighted to announce that Air-Craftglass will start production of our transparencies, real silver mirror glass and the Natural Collection at a new location at the start of 2018.
The Philips – Open Manufacturing Campus (OMC) in the Belgian town of Turnhout (near Antwerp) will be home to our production facility as of 1 January. This will make us ready and able to produce a complete line of products for the aircraft industry in the years ahead as our market continues to expand.
The site has a great deal of process and production equipment design capabilities – and is the perfect environment for the Air-Craftglass team to swiftly upscale and integrate our production.
The OMC will also enable us to easily implement all our certification processes such as ISO 9001:2015 for quality management systems. Moreover, as all our main suppliers are based in Belgium, the location will be very cost-efficient and help fulfil our vision to source locally in accordance with sustainable entrepreneurship.
The Open Manufacturing Campus is a non-profit triple helix organisation. This innovation campus and community welcomes engineering and manufacturing companies looking to grow in a fast and controlled way within a scalable infrastructure, using the available production ramp-up knowledge and the expertise of a highly skilled workforce. Further support is provided by on-site test equipment (from drop test to high speed cameras and 3D CT scanners), fire brigade, controlled entry system, hospital, canteen and a mechanisation department specialised in designing highly reliable production processes and converting them into affordable and scalable equipment. OMC aims to become Europe's most productive square kilometre in the high-tech and life sciences fields.
The Air-Craftglass team had a successful three days at the 2017 Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (NBAA-BACE) in October. Held in Las Vegas, the event highlighted the overall strength of the industry and the considerable appreciation for our full range of products. Many visitors commented on the fact that we have something genuinely unique in the aircraft sector, and we expect many of these contacts to translate into new business opportunities in the months ahead.
Thanks to our exclusive cooperation with the Asahi Glass Company "AGC"– the world's largest flat glass producer – we are now able to offer you some unique extra features for your Air-Craftglass products, including in matt glass as well as high gloss.
The move came in response to requests from the market for a matt glass finish to products in the Natural Collection with its 100%-flat surface. It also allows us to meet the clear design trend towards matt- finished products, with the grade of matt finish regulated to order. We would be pleased to send you an information sheet containing all the specs of this 'anti-glare' product range.
Another option on offer is to give your glass an anti-finger print coating, reducing maintenance costs in the future. Here too, it is the special chemical composition of all Air-Craftglass products that allow us to offer possibilities that no-one else in the aircraft industry has available today.
The ultimate goal for us at Air-Craftglass is – together with our valuable clients – to create a new glass standard for the aircraft industry. This involves offering the three exceptional products we have available today – transparencies, real silver mirror glass and the Natural Collection – all with Unique Selling Points and Intellectual Property of their own. It also involves opening new production facilities at the cutting edge of innovation. And it involves partnering with creative clients such as yourself to add special features that give products an even more outstanding market performance.
In other words, we cannot do it without you… so please contact our company to find out about the latest product developments or for engineering support related to your current or newly developed product portfolio: email info@air-craftglass.com today to open a dialogue.


If I render, it seems no matter what I set the lights' intensity to, the render is completely washed out (looks fine rendered in a viewport).
Is there some way to control this?
maybe you have ambient occlusion turned on with the light intensity set too high?
…is enable ambient occlusion ticked?
… is ambient light color set to white?
I got excited when I saw "Ambient Occlusion" and went hunting for it in the properties. Then I saw that this was for Rhino on OSX.
Why don't the PC users get Ambient Occlusion in the default render-er?
It's hard to complain when we have Neon and the Brazil Demo.
Ambient light colour is set to black.
Thanks. But there's still the question of why the render is nothing like the render in the viewport.
Also, adjusting intensity of the lights appears to make no difference at all to the final render, though it works just fine in the viewport.
See what you're talking about. I though that it could be the Rhino renderer is deferant than the Toucan renderer that was making the difference but I render it with both and it can up the same. Rhino for Mac still needs some work on the renderer engine. I hope some one who is more experience with Rhino can be more help.

A potential surge in buy-to-let investment
Landlords anticipating a new wave of investment in London buy-to-let
The recent rise in rental prices in London has led to a notable increase in buy-to-let holdings. An estimated 35% of landlords based in the capital are planning to buy more buy-to-let properties, research by ludlowthompson has shown.
According to London's estate agent, a mere 6% of landlords plan to reduce their buy-to-let investments in the coming year. At the same time, statistics have pointed to a marked decline in landlords (21%) who are planning to invest in buy-to-let properties outside of London.
Since bank-lending to new residential construction projects has diminished considerably in recent times, rents in London have soared to the frustration of potential tenants. For landlords however, this is a time of opportunity as the all-time high property prices in the capital have resulted in fewer people buying and more people renting. Ludlowthompson's poll has also led to the conclusion that since the house prices are not set to decrease any time soon, there will be a clear tendency for people to rent for longer periods of time.
Stephen Ludlow, chairman of ludlowthompson, has explained that, "buy-to-let property in London was the preserve of South-East and overseas based landlords, but at present, more and more landlords from across the UK choose London properties for buy-to-let."
He further added: "London acts as a magnet to young professionals from all over Europe who are looking for interesting work. The Eurozone crisis has led to a significant increase in young Europeans moving to London, creating even more demand for London rental property."
Ludlowthompson points to a 70% increase in landlords expecting rents to rise in the next twelve months. Interestingly, only a third of surveyed landlords are anticipating a rent increases outside of London.
Stephen Ludlow also commented: "Critics who said that the credit crunch signalled the death knell of buy-to-let have proved to be very wrong indeed."
At present, more and more landlords from across the UK choose London properties for buy-to-let.

Q: Recommendations for moving from Npgqsql in .Net to .Net Core 1.1 I need to move my class library from .net 4.6.1 to .net core 1.1. I've been able to get everything except for npgsql to be compatible with 1.1. Is there a solution for npgsql or should I look for another library? Recommendations if I need to choose another library?

A: .NET Core 1.x is more or less considered deprecated, and everyone is being encouraged by Microsoft to move to .NET Core 2.x (important Microsoft libraries no longer target it). You should definitely consider targeting .NET Standard 2.0 if at all possible - any specific reason you're looking at .NET Core 1.x?
If you really do need .NET Core 1.x, then you can try using Npgsql 3.2.x, which still targeted .NET Standard 1.3. That version no longer receives much attention - so again you should not be doing this unless absolutely necessary - but the option is there.


My son, age 7, is intensely competitive, just like his grandfather. Our house is basically a massive theater for what he calls "the foot game" — whoever manages to step on top of another person's foot wins. How do I get him to put on his clothes? I time him, and then he tries to beat yesterday's time. Every walk home from school is a race. He brings games home, too, almost every day. My most recent favorite is a game called "my grandmother's underwear." The rules are simple. People call out phrases like "You're favorite thing to eat is" or "What are you wearing right now?" and you have to answer "My grandmother's underwear" without laughing. A surprisingly profound game. What makes grandmothers' undergarments so hilarious? Children are the source of all comic genius.

In honored remembrance of these seven members
In honored remembrance of these seven members of the United States Marine Corps, who were killed in the Republic of Vietnam when their LTV exploded on 26 January 1969.*
They all rest together in Section 46 of Arlington National Cemetery.
* E-Mail: March 2005: (I served with Kilo 3/26 on Operation Bold Mariner in January, 1969 and witnessed the explosion that took the lives of the 7 Marines buried at Arlington beneath the headstone in the photograph. As I have always understood it, and as the last text of the web site indicates, the line charge they tried to fire detonated prematurely while still coiled within the vehicle. They did not strike a landmine, although they were many landmines in the area. The village of Mi Lai (sp?) is located less than 1 mile south of the point where the explosion took place. I have seen film of the same device being used successfully in Iraq and Kuwait. It took the lives of 7 Marines who died in Vietnam to make it safe for others to use the device in another war.Charles Cammack

Brad was survived by his loving family, including his mother, Donna L. Travis, lives in Crittenden County, Kentucky; his brother, Michael W. Travis, currently residing at Scott AFB, Illinois; his brother, Robert Suchka, who also served in Vietnam with the Army and currently lives in Southern California; his brother, William L. Travis, who resides in Scipio, Indiana; and his sister, Kathy Morris, who lives in Crittenden County, Kentucky.
Brad enlisted in the Marines in the July 1967 and completed his training for Amphibian
Crewman on 28 September 1967. He started his tour of Vietnam on February 17, 1968. At 10:50 AM on January 26, 1969, the amphibian tractor that Brad was on was conducting a mine clearing operation twelve miles south of Chu Lai, in Quang Ngai Province, Republic of Vietnam. The tractor fired a demolition line charge which detonated prematurely, destroying the tractor and killing all seven men aboard instantly.
