I had the opportunity to spend another week up in Michigan, so of course I took the opportunity to play with my drone some more. I've also started playing with tilt-shift techniques, so I've posted some of those in addition to my tiny planet pics. Also, I've posted pictures from one of the highlights of the trip – flying my drone on a boat!
Some time ago, a parent approached us with an interest to help build a recording studio. Recording is a hobby of his, and his children are musicians. Having our kids recording their music is right up our alley philosophically, so we were very excited about the possibilities! It took us nearly a year to plan, design, build, and train. Late last school year, the studio was completed! The studio is all professional-grade equipment. We're a little limited with our space, but we were able to add reasonable soundproofing and windows into the main music room and control room. All this was just in time, too, as our very talented music teacher Stephen Roberts was able to have our graduating 8th grade class record a song for their graduation video. The goal, as Stephen put it, was to have the parents "cry out of both eyes." And it was completely successful. I can't wait to see how this integrates into our program next year. I had a small part of the planning, and was able to add some artwork to the finished room – a friend had just given me a vintage Fender catalog as a gift. Here is what the studio looks like.

Nuclear is a Trigger Word to the Press and to General Public
My colleagues and I were having lunch whilst the TV screens were showing the BBC news one day last week. The news was coming in about an explosion in a furnace at a nucler installation in the South of France. The news reader may well have said 'at a nucear power plant' but I can't verify that. I and my colleagues immediately thought 'Why would there be a furnace at a nucler power plant?'. All the non-engineers this bulletin would probably have been thinking either 'Surely not another accident at these dangerous nuclear facilities; is it another Fukushima?' or 'Nuclear + accident just conforms my view that these things are just too dangerous'.
Those bothering to follow the story like myself and my colleagues soon discovered that our bewiderment was significant. This was an incident at a facility melting down irradiated metal from a nuclear power plant; so called low level waste. The heat needed to melt the metal was being supplied by a furnace using a conventional fuel and there had been a explosion in the conventional furnace as can happen anywhere there is a furnace. There was very little chance of a leak of dangerous material and the amount that could escape was also small.
On a scale of 0 to 10 where Fukushima might be an 8 and Chernobyl a 9, this was a 1 or 2. Yes an exclusion zone was set up round the plant but this was precautionary whilst measurements were taken. It was not really worth reporting on the BBC news, in hindsight, but 'Nuclear' is a trigger word for the press. This means nuclear incidents get over reported and the general public may well therefore get a false view of the number and seriousness of nuclear related incidents. A newspaper report that reflects both the overreaction and the facts can be found here: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/france-on-edge-after-accident-at-nuclear-site-2353692.html
Several years ago I was a lecturer in Chemical Engineering at the University of Cambridge and one of my colleagues won a grant to build the UK facility for the use of MRI scanners to explore problems in chemical engineering science. Not many members of the general public would think twice about placing themselves in an MRI scanner at a hospital. It is much safter than having an X-ray or a CT scan both of which use ionising radiation and increase the patient's risk (very slightly) of cancer. So why, you may ask ,were there vociferous and emotional objections to planning permission for this new UK facility that was going to bring jobs to Cambridge and enhance the reputation of the University? The answer is becuase the correct name for the phenomenon behind MRI scans is Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR). The people living in the houses nearby to the proposed site of the facility saw the word 'Nuclear' in the planning application and knew it must be dangerous. They were wrong. What causes cancer is ionising radiation. We are all surrounded by and made of stable nuclei. We live in a nuclear environment. NMR tickles those nuclei. It does not cause ionising radiation to be emitted.
What is the lesson to learn?
One lesson is that engineers and scientists have to be smart when speaking to the general public. The medics call their NMR imaging machines, MRI scanners quite deliberately. They know that 'Nuclear' is a trigger word for the press and the general public. They don't use 'Nuclear' for the very best of reasons becuase it might stop patients from submitting themselves to scans that save lives.
A second lesson, for the press and the general public, is that a proper understanding of certain issues cannot be obtained without effort and time. This applies in science, engineering and medicine but also more widely.

A scheveningeni rendszerű verseny a sakkversenyek egy speciális formája, ahol két csapat játékosai játszanak egymás ellen úgy, hogy az egyik csapat minden játékosa játszik a másik csapat minden játékosa ellen.

A versenyforma eredete
A versenyforma Hága Scheveningen nevű kerületéről kapta a nevét, mert 1923-ban itt alkalmazták először egy nemzetközi versenyen, ahol Európa legjobb sakkozói játszottak Hollandia mesterei ellen. A verseny érdekessége, hogy az európai válogatottban két magyar (Maróczy Géza és Réti Richárd is játszott. Maróczy az utolsó forduló előtt biztos győztesnek látszott, kilenc mérkőzésből szerzett nyolc pontjával, ekkor azonban vereséget szenvedett az utolsó helyezett versenyzőtől, és így csak a 3–5. helyen végzett. Az európai mesterek erejére jellemző, hogy a legjobb holland versenyző, a későbbi világbajnok Max Euwe 4,5 ponttal összesítésben csak a 10–11. helyen végzett.

A verseny sorsolása
A verseny sorsolását úgy ejtik meg, hogy minden játékos felváltva játszhasson világos és sötét színnel, és mindkettővel azonos alkalommal (páros számú csapatok esetén). Ennek biztosítása érdekében a sorsolásra előre elkészített táblázatokat használnak.

Egy példa a sorsolásra, hat-hat versenyzőbőlálló csapatok esetén:
1. forduló: B1-A1 B5-A2 A3-B4 A4-B2 A5-B3 B6-A6
2. forduló: B2-A1 A2-B1 B3-A3 B4-A4 A5-B6 A6-B5
3. forduló: A1-B3 A2-B2 B1-A3 B6-A4 B5-A5 A6-B4
4. forduló: A1-B4 B6-A2 A3-B5 A4-B1 B2-A5 B3-A6
5. forduló: B5-A1 B4-A2 A3-B6 B3-A4 A5-B1 A6-B2
6. forduló: A1-B6 A2-B3 B2-A3 A4-B5 B4-A5 B1-A6

A verseny végeredménye
Az ilyen típusú versenyen egyéni és csapateredményt is hirdetnek. Az egyéni eredményt az egyes játékosok által szerzett pontszám alapján, míg a csapateredményt az egy csapatban játszó játékosok összpontszáma alapján állapítják meg.

A versenyforma alkalmazása

A sakkversenynek ezt a formáját sok esetben nemzetek közötti csapatmérkőzésként rendezik, gyakran egy nemzet sakkozóinak erőfelméréseként egy erős versenyzőkből összeválogatott csapat ellen, mint például a 2002-ben játszott Oroszország-Világválogatott mérkőzés, hagyománya van Moszkvában az úgynevezett generációs sakkversenynek, ahol tapasztaltabb nagymesterek játszanak fiatal orosz nagymesterek ellen, vagy ugyancsak példa a scheveningeni rendszerű versenyre a 2011-ben Saint Louisban játszott verseny a fiatal amerikai sakkozók és a világ legjobb női sakkozói közötti, "Királyok a Királynők ellen" (Kings vs Queens) összecsapás.

A scheveningeni versenyformát egy időben (legtöbb alkalommal a Szovjetunióban) gyakran alkalmazták normaszerző versenyek esetében, amikor például mesterek játszottak mesterjelöltek ellen, és a norma szerint meghatározott pontszámot elért mesterjelöltek mesteri címet szerezhettek. Ugyancsak gyakori versenyforma volt az Élő-pontrendszer bevezetésének kezdeti időszakában, amikor nemzetközi Élő-pontszámmal még nem rendelkező versenyzők játszottak Élő-pontszámmal már rendelkező versenyzők ellen.

Rodizio, roots and origins.
It is believed that rodizio style of dining started in the Southern-most region. Some stories have mentioned that it was the gauchos, or cowboys that lived in the fields and farmlands of Brazil, that made their way of living a revolutionary culinary tradition.
Gauchos were known to raise cattle and cultivate the land in order to make a living. In groups, gauchos migrated their cattle from the South of Brazil from Rio Grande do Sul, to northern regions like Sao Paulo, it has been said they would often stop to cook grilled meats on skewers over open fire pits. This practice remained a staple for the gaucho culture that is still celebrated today.
Over the years many restaurants have stepped up to claim their title as the birthplace of rodizio. However, it is unclear where it originated and how it became a worldwide culinary attraction. What is true is that rodizio is and has been great experience for meat lovers of any age.
Offerings of sizzling cuts of beef, pork, poultry, and even other cuts like chicken hearts and lamb are offered on skewers. These meats are cut table side and served in a temperature of your liking. Like most traditional churrascarias Brazeiro Churrascaria offers a salad bar with authentic Brazilian accompaniments to compliment your mouth-watering pieces of beef.

Viacom Follows Disney's Lead, Bets on Digital Short-Form Video
"If you do the math, it works out your favor," Viacom Digital Studio's Kelly Day tells an IBC audience, all the while praying that Disney's Jeffrey Katzenberg is right about short-form content.
By Adrian Pennington
Attempts by large media conglomerates to shift the balance of their business from linear to digital can work if social media platforms are treated as partners not competitors, says Viacom.
"There is an increasing realization that the days of trying to build your own network and website then acquire and monetize an audience is hard and incredibly expensive," Kelly Day, president of Viacom Digital Studios (VDS) told an audience at IBC. "On the other hand, our ability to scale up by distributing across the social landscape is such an enormous opportunity that it is worth revenue sharing with those platforms. If you do the math, it works out your favor."
The digital studio, which launched last year, is the linchpin of Viacom CEO Bob Bakish's revitalisation plan, as the company moves to expand its core television business onto next-generation platforms.
"This is a huge priority for Bob," said Day. "Viacom is very focused on evolving beyond just being a broadcast company or a linear TV company to being a creative company that produces new IP and develops brands that can be distributed and monetised in lots of different environments." The chief way it is doing this is by producing fresh versions of Viacom brand staples for social media channels. Among them are the following:
Bikini Bottom Mysteries, a series of 5-minute episodes culled from existing Spongebob material and aimed at 18-34 year-old Facebook users.
A reworking of MTV series Cribs co-produced with and exclusively for distribution on SnapChat funded with shared sponsorship deals. Shot vertically to fit the platform's format, the sixteen 3-minute long shows produced to date have had "tens of millions of views" Day said.
Between the Scenes slice of The Daily Show distributed on Facebook and YouTube in which host Trevor Noah talks to camera has been streamed 150 million times and landed Noah his first two Emmy nominations.
A deal with Twitter brings red-carpet coverage and four show formats—including MTV News and BET Breaks—to the social media service's live TV platform.
Ironically, a decade ago Viacom was locked in a legal battle with Google, alleging that YouTube had engaged in brazen and massive copyright infringement. The parties settled out of court only in 2014.
"A few years ago, frankly, the talk was of YouTube taking your money," Day said. "The truth now is YouTube is one of the most mature advertising platforms available. There are many ways to monetize from pre- and mid-roll to sponsorship and branded content. YouTube is a priority platform for us.
"With Snap we've done some robust sponsorships sales and with Facebook we continue to licence content either as live streaming or original shows."
She acknowledged that extending the reach and relevance of existing Viacom TV-centric shows among new mobile-first audiences could be a mere marketing play.
"There is an intention that as these platforms evolve there is an opportunity to build a strong business. It may not necessarily replace linear TV dollars in the short term but in the longer term it allows us to diversify our revenue and to build new revenue streams for the future."
She continued, "In the early days of online video platforms there was a perception that digital short form was all cats on skateboards. We've come a long way and evolved to a place where you are no longer at the mercy of the linear clock. How long your content is, is dictated by the story, by the platform, and your budget."
VDS is one of several big media attempts to capture new audiences with premium produced short form content.
BBC Studios Chief Executive Tim Davie used his keynote speech at IBC2018 to announce a new fund to back high-end short form projects.
Former Walt Disney Studios chairman Jeffrey Katzenberg announced earlier this month that he had raised $1 billion to invest in a new short-form platform in which Viacom has invested.
"You would never bet against Jeffrey," says Day. "He's been trying to build this vision for many years. If anyone can do it, he can."

It has been a little bit over a two months since an island popped out of the sea close to North Carolina's Outer Banks, and already persons are discovering themselves stranded on its sandy shores. The French Caribbean is not as reserved as the islands with a British influence, and the English lyrics are fairly specific about current social norms – in different phrases you might be somewhat shocked at what you hear. Another location advantage is you easily island hop to the islands of Martinique, Dominica and Guadeloupe.
The stays of a variety of shipwrecks, mostly from before the development of the lighthouse, but additionally afterward, lie scattered about Anacapa and the opposite Channel Islands. In doing so he discovered Mavuva Island, and the Chief for this area lived on Macuati-I-Wai Island which is three kilometres away.
In all places you turn, and on every island journey there's simply extra magnificence to be seen. Several of the top island eating places are in strolling distance, as are retailers, vehicle rentals, the Internet Cafe, the Crusing Membership and lagoon tours. They're typically coated with considerable vegetation, the seeds of which have been carried there, for example, by air and water currents or by birds; however the plant variety is relatively limited.
I attempted to seize the island on image, however the colour intensity and depth was missing greater than usually. The island sits on a coral reef, the edge of the reef being situated roughly 400 metres from the seaside, and is surrounded by protected water as much as 20 metres deep.
In the seventeenth century, Ternate additional exerted its energy over Morotai by repeatedly forcing major elements of the inhabitants to move off the island. Later, in 1627 and 1628, Sultan Hamzah of Ternate had a lot of the Christian population of the island moved to Malayu, on Ternate, where they may very well be extra simply managed.

Red Hat probably won't get an offer higher than the $190-per-share price from IBM, because rival suitors have already had a chance to bid, according to people familiar with the matter.
Red Hat announced Sunday it had reached an agreement to sell itself to IBM for about $34 billion. As the open-source software developer negotiated with IBM, it also spoke with "all of the logical buyers" including Google, said one of the people, who asked not to be named because the discussions were private.
Google had interest in buying GitHub earlier this year, before Microsoft bought the code-sharing company for $7.5 billion.
Google and other potential bidders had preliminary discussions with Red Hat over the course of several years, the people said. Red Hat CEO Jim Whitehurst told CNBC on Sunday that while Red Hat has had discussions with a number of companies, none of them progressed nearly as far as talks with IBM.
A Google spokesperson didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
While it's still possible a company could come in with a higher bid, potential suitors view IBM as a safe buyer that won't disrupt Red Hat's operations or dramatically alter the competitive landscape, two of the people said.
IBM has already said Red Hat will continue to operate independently within IBM and with minimal interference from its new parent.
Red Hat allows IBM to expand its reach across its hybrid cloud infrastructure, which combines on-site private servers with third-party cloud computing. But in terms of pure public cloud, Amazon, Microsoft and Google are still in prime position to battle for market share.
IBM paid more than a 60 percent premium over Red Hat's closing price on Friday of $116.68 a share. The premium was closer to 40 percent when the two companies actually agreed on the economic terms of the deal, one of the people said. Red Hat shares were trading at around $135 at the end of September and fell this month along with the rest of the technology sector.
Should the deal be terminated, Red Hat would be obligated to pay IBM $975 million in cash, according to an SEC filing.
Analysts at Cowen and Co. said on Monday that Cisco, Oracle and Google should take a hard look at Red Hat.


Since this is a book about a girl who is obsessed with making lists, I think it's quite appropriate to review it in list form. So, here's a Top Five Facts (/Opinions) About Top Ten Clues You're Clueless.
1. Seriously, the main character is one of the most interesting I've come across in contemporary YA. She suffers from Type 1 Diabetes, loves making lists, is refreshingly awkward and is entirely relateable.
2. The romance was adorable. I have to admit that it was perhaps just that little bit underdeveloped, which was one of the reasons why I didn't rate this book more highly. Then again, the romance wasn't the main focus of the book, so I suppose it being that slight bit underdeveloped didn't have a big impact on my opinion of the book.
3. There's a diverse range of characters. I think perhaps because of this movement for increasing diversity in YA, a lot more authors are starting to include diverse characters. What I liked about this book was that the diversity didn't seem to be thrown in for the sake of it. Instead there was definitely a casualness to it- the characters just happened to be diverse, if that makes sense.
4. The secondary characters are fantastic. Sure, the diversity is good, but more than that, they're well developed and interesting. I'd take a well developed white-washed cast of characters over a terribly developed diverse cast of characters any day.
5. This book is a fluffy, adorable read that's perfect to read when you're in the mood for something light and fun. As is Liz Czukas' other book (Ask Again Later), actually, so you should give that a go too.

SAARC Development Fund plans cross-border e-commerce platform, to fund Start- Ups in SAARC Member States
New Delhi, July 9 (KNN) SAARC Development Fund, the cross boarder project umbrella financing institution for SAARC Member States, is in the process of developing an e-commerce platform for enabling seamless trade of goods and services across SAARC Member States even as it would fund 'Start-Ups' , giving a fillip to budding entrepreneurs in the region , CEO of SDF, Dr Sunil Motiwal has said.
"A proposal to develop a cross border e-commerce platform along with a SAARC money card for the common people across the region is under finalisation," Dr Motiwal said in a statement summarizing the outcome of the recent two-day SAARC Development Fund Partnership Conclave, an event of strategic and regional importance for growth of SAARC region with the apex Multilateral Development Banks like the World Bank( WB), Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) in New Delhi.
The business meeting with the multilateral organisations and financial institutions was meant to rope them in enhancing the credit portfolio of the SDF which has already disbursed USD 47 million in 12 cross boarder projects and granted in- principle approvals for two energy cross border projects with commitment of USD 30 Million in the region. Dr Motiwal also confirmed that SDF is currently considering bankable projects in the areas of infrastructure, economic and MSME segments of markets in SAARC region.
Dr Motiwal said, the initiatives like e-commerce platform along with funding the 'Start-Ups' found an instant support among the international funding organisations.
"The Start-Up programme would include entrepreneurs well in areas like renewable energy, agriculture,health and micro-enterprises, especially in MSME segments," he added.
Exhorting young entrepreneurs from all the eight nations in the SAARC to take advantage, he said, "You can come up with a proposal which will be funded by the SDF which has a capital base of USD 500 million".
He said the common e-commerce platform has a great potential for enhancing the intra-SAARC trade and services. For instance, consumers of Bangladesh textile anywhere in the region and even elsewhere can place orders on the e-commerce platform.
Likewise,a range of commodities including fruits and vegetables grown in Bhutan, Pakistan or India can be sold and bought online, immensely helping the producers and the consumers", the SDF CEO said .
The region has the age profile of 15-24 years, a perfect fit for online business. Besides, it has a huge pool of skilled manpower, low cost workforce and abundant natural resources".
On regulatory issues, the SDF CEO said, "we will connect with regulators, central banks of all the member states and emphasise the underlying potential of online trading". Besides, there is also a proposal of introducing a plastic SAARC money card which can have denominations of all the currencies in the region.
Currently, only 4% of the total trade of the SAARC member states is taking place within the region. This can be increased significantly by initiatives like e-commerce, a booming business across the world. Stakeholders can work on building common facilities for logistic, warehousing and transportation.
The SDF's Partnership Conclave in New Delhi on July 2 and 3 ,2018 deliberated on a number of issues concerning the trade in the region. The delegates from eight countries raised issues like speedier visa by the Member States, currency and payment facilitation, trade facilitation at the borders, financial connectivity and reviving the SAFTA into a dynamic trade zone. As rightly pointed out by India's NITI Aayog CEO Mr Amitabh Kant, the growth in the region must come from within itself. The point was endorsed by delegates from top multilateral organisations, banks,consulting firms and leading think tanks of the region.

Alandia / Monthly Themes / Navigation / Manoeuvering
Manoeuvering
One of the most frequent hull claims are contact damages in conjunction with manoeuvring in ports, entering locks and other confined waters, and currently the trend is rising. In this monthly theme, we highlight the underlying reasons for contact damages, mitigating actions and best practises when it comes to ship handling and Maritime Resource Management (MRM).
Underlying reasons:
Unfavourable meteorological conditions, including strong wind, poor visibility, strong currents (rivers, tidal streams), and ice are the most common cause of contact damages. The second most frequent cause are judgement errors made by the person manoeuvring the vessel and can be related to for example speed, distance(s), and whether the vessel is parallel to berth or lock. Though technical reasons are very seldom recorded as the direct cause of contact damages, however these do occur and can therefore not be ruled out. A common denominator in most contact damage cases is the failure of the MRM elements; communication, coordination, and situational awareness are not maintained throughout a manoeuvre or are lost at some point during manoeuvring.
Mitigating actions:
Ensure that the meteorological conditions are within the operational envelope of your vessel in terms of the intended manoeuvre(s). Careful preplanning will reveal the point where the conditions will put your vessel's capabilities, that is, whether you are operating at the limits of its performance potential (very risky) or still well within the normal operating conditions. This planning should also take into account the possibility of sudden changes in the conditions, for example port structures that alter wind direction and strength, and further determine whether these changes may increase or decrease the overall risks associated with the manoeuvre. It is important to consider that while employing tugs does extend the operational envelope, it also makes the operation more complex by making additional demands on coordination and communication.
Make at least two alternative manoeuvring plans to accommodate larger margins, should the meteorological conditions change and/or a technical issue appear and make it too risky or impossible to execute the first plan. Also clearly mark "the point of no return", up to which the manoeuvre can still be safely exited.
Communicate your plan(s). Every operational role in the manoeuvre is critical and all involved parties need to share a mental picture of what, when and how the operation is to be carried out. A simple but thorough pre-briefing is an effective way to help maintain the participants' situational awareness throughout the operation.
Be clear on responsibilities and tasks! The Master is always in command of the vessel and may delegate tasks (for example to a pilot), but never the responsibility. The Master should always exercise overriding authority when needed. Encourage "Challenge and Response" from everyone participating in the operation.
Best practices:
Make a "Safe Manoeuvring Plan" for your vessel, where you consider propulsion (main engine(s), thrusters), windage, swept beam, and under keel clearance (UKC). The plan can be made simple so that the opposing and interacting forces are easily plotted to give an idea of where you are on the operational envelope. Alandia can assist in making these plans.
Integrate the MRM concept into all operations and reward desired behaviour, such as "Challenge and Response" and "Closed Loop Communication".
When a pilot is employed, have short but concise Master/Pilot exchanges where you establish a shared mental picture and agree on the operational plan(s). Be clear and insist that common language is to be used throughout the operation, so that everyone can maintain situational awareness.
It is best practise to approach locks and berths in a shallow angle. This enables landing the vessel parallel to fenders, dolphins etc. Most fenders are designed around 10-degree compression angles, hence shallow angle of approach and parallel landing!
Insist on common operation language throughout the manoeuvre, including with the pilot and the tugs, if employed. Communicating in several different languages during the same operation increases risks, creates confusion, and effectively removes the MRM elements, such as a shared mental picture and situational awareness.
Train your ship handling skills regularly and mentor all the deck officers to become confident and good ship handlers!

Q: Horizontal centering a flexbox item, with an uneven number of items I've got a flex container, with a logo and some links.  I want the logo to be centered, and the links over on the right.  The best I can seem to do is center the logo in the remaining space, which is not centered on the container.
Here are some of my attempts so far:

.header{background:#CCC;padding:1rem; margin-bottom:2rem;}
.logo{background:skyblue;text-align:center;height:30px;width:200px;}

/*-----------------------*/

#header1 {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: space-between;
  align-items: center;
}
#header1-logo {
  justify-self: center;
}
#header1-nav {
  justify-self: flex-end;
}

/*-----------------------*/

#header2 {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
}
#header2-logo {
  margin: 0 auto;
}

LOGO

    foo
    bar
    baz

LOGO

    foo
    bar
    baz

How can I center the logo in the actual center of the flex container?

A: Not using flexbox exclusively, but an option would be to absolute position the logo?

.header{background:#CCC;padding:1rem; margin-bottom:2rem;}
.logo{background:skyblue;text-align:center;height:30px;width:200px;}

/*-----------------------*/

#header1 {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: space-between;
  align-items: center;
}
#header1-logo {
  position: absolute;
  left:0;
  right:0;
  margin:auto;
}
#header1-nav {
  margin-left:auto;
}

LOGO

    foo
    bar
    baz

A: You're pretty close I think. I've had good success in the past just adding a "blank-element" with a flex of 1 before the logo element. The logo, and the links element should also have a flex of 1, this will ensure that they all take up the same amount of space on the screen (1/3rd)

#header {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
  border: grey solid 2px;
}
#header-logo {
  flex: 1;
  margin: 0 auto;
  border: black solid 2px;
}
#blank-Element {
  flex:1;
}
#header-nav {
  flex:1;
  // other styles here

}

LOGO

      foo
      bar
      baz

edit: left in the borders so you can see what it's doing easily

TV Shows of 2018
Posted by Joanne in american horror story, candace cameron bure, crikey its the irwins, f is for family, fuller house, hollywood darlings, modern family, riverdale, scandal, shameless, special victims unit, the goldbergs, the good doctor, the good fight, the good place, the middle, the simpsons, thirteen reasons why, this is us, tv series, when calls the heart
Yet another year is coming to an end. It was a year rich in TV Shows. The below is a list of shows I followed and cared about this year. I haven't done weekly episode reviews all year, so below is a little sum up of what I thought of each show. There were honestly so many of them, I just couldn't find time for weekly posts. These are the 41 shows I followed in 2018.
I miss Jessica Capshaw and Sarah Drew. No bigger mistake has ever been made on Greys than writers getting rid of Arizona. I am happy Geena Davis's character came back for her and offered her a job. They brought one of my favorite characters, Teddy, back just to ruin her life. New season welcomed Chris McCormick, Nashville alum and the first half of the season entirely revolved around Meredith's love life.
SVU
I honestly hope SVU never ends, because these cases will never lose its importance and I will gladly follow Mariska chasing rapists in her 60s and 70s.
This season wasn't shameless at all. Carl's wife was annoying, but I cannot believe they killed her off and no one is bothered. I'm glad they brought Courteney Cox for an episode, and Peggy Bundy for a few. I really hope Katey Segal is coming back in January. Speaking of the Bundys, I feel like watching some Married with Children reruns.
Netflix made us wait a full year for season 4 and then they didn't promote the show at all. I didn't even get an email notification about new episodes being up. I love everything the Fuller-Tanner-Gibbler family does. I love all their games and special events. I will never be a parent, but it's my dream to be DJ Tanner and organise all these fun events and days out with people I love. I love how DJ is always on her 100 percent, a perfectionist, always nicely dressed and ready for an adventure. It's exactly how my mom is, I could never wear makeup and nice clothes every day, especially on my days off. Maybe it has something to do with being a parent or actually being around people.
One of my favorite family shows ended, but it looks like Eden Sher has been given a spin-off. I hope they get Patricia Heaton to visit her a lot.
I liked this season, but then again I will always be happy with this show as long as Sarah Paulson is still doing it.
Speaking of spin offs, The Goldbergs is getting one, Schooled will premiere next year and it will revolve around Lanie. I was not happy that they recast Adam's girlfriend, instead of getting him a new one. I hope Barry and Lanie do get married.
I hated season 4, because it revolved around Laurel and her messed up family, that did not bring anything to the storyline, but season 5 focuses on Bonnie and I've been enjoying it a lot.
Incredible series about self-harm based on an amazing book. It's rarely ever that self-harm addiction is shown that realistically. Sharp Objects is one of the most relatable things I've come across and I wish this series was around when I was fifteen. It also has a jaw dropping twist in the very last 5 seconds.
My dad cannot stop saying that Cristina Yang lied to us when she said she's moving to Switzerland, and moved to London to join MI5 instead. This series starring Thirteen's Jodie Colmer is a 'killer'.
A money laundering show starring Laura Linney, yes please! My dad loves this show.
Another show my dad loved. And It's about money laundering as well. I never cared much for Mad Men, I liked it, but it was too 'manly' for me, but Christina Hendricks is amazing in this and Mae Whitman also stars.
Say what you want, this season was almost as good as the first one, and it wasn't too explicit. I'm not sure where I stand on how they ended this season, but I do agree that the shooting would have been too traumatizing for teenagers. I didn't like that Hannah had a boyfriend prior to what happened in the bath tub in season one. They portrayed her as this innocent, never-had-a-boyfriend type in season one and then they ruined it in season two. Clay was supposed to be the only person that loved her, and there was someone else. I liked her boyfriend though, and I got used to the relationship, and thought it was cute by the end, so I guess it evens itself out.
In a way I lost interest the minute we learned how Jack died. It was quite brutal and I honestly don't think there's anything else there left to tell. I loved how they showed Tess and what she ends up doing with her life in the future.
Can Connie just relax and stick to one show? I loved her on Nashville and Friday Night Lights, and AHS Murder House as well, so I was happy when she joined 911, starring opposite Parenthood and Six Feet Under's Peter Krause. I am not enjoying this season as much, but the first one was amazing.
Revenge, Brothers and Sisters and Everwood's Emily VanCamp stars next to Gilmore Girls and The Good Wife's Matt Chuchry in this medical drama. I am disappointed that many of the cases look like they were copied straight off Grey's Anatomy. In season one Emily's character Nick, was trying to bring an abusive doctor down, season 2 lacks this leading plot. Jenna Dewan joined the cast and every time I see her on the screen, my mind authomatically goes to Step Up.
Crikey it's the Irwins
I just love this show. I have followed the Irwins since late 90s, back when Crocodile Hunter was on TV. Steve Irwin's death broke my heart. The Irwins live in Steve's dad's Australia Zoo and continue his legacy as wildlife conservationists.
What a year it was for the Hearties. Daniel Lissing has been absent through most of season 5 and then quit altogether, so they had to kill him off. The winter episode didn't lack the usual sweetness of the show, but It wasn't as good as previous episodes.
Everything after season 3 has been mediocre, but I'm still sticking with it.
I have been following Britt Robertson's career for 8 years now, while Girlboss wasn't her big break, neither will this be. I still love this Shondaland show and can't wait for season 2.
I just hated what happened to David, it ruined the series for me.
Season one was amazing, season two was average, but ended well, and I really hope season 3 will have an actual killer, and it will not go all supernatural on us. I like the darker, illuminati vibe, but now that we've seen Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, we don't need it anymore.
I honestly hope The Simpsons has 60 seasons, I love the school and family episodes, and hate all the sci-fi. I wish they only stuck to those.
Season 2 was all over the place, are we even getting a third season?
Everyone seems to be loving this show and I find it average and haven't even been following this season.
Same as with The Resident, we've seen all this on Greys and some cases are coincidentaly similiar. I haven't caught up with season two yet.
Hollywood Darlings
It's fun, but I don't think it'll be getting a third season. You never know though, as they've added it on Netflix earlier this month.
F For Family
Not as good as previous seasons, but it's still a nice way to spend 6 hours.
I do like the darker bits and Miranda Otto's character.
30. Nashville
I miss it already, sadly it was never the same after Connie left. Lennon Stella now has a music career, and I still wish the Stella sisters continued as a duo.
31. Station 19
I love this one, it's not brilliant, but I have the exact stable opinion on it every single week.
32. Younger
I loved Sex and the city and it's been 20 years that I've wanted to live in New York, so it's always a blast to see a little more of city life, even though it's clearly gone to poop. I still like the same characters and hate the ones I hated in season 1. I am so happy about Liza and Charles, they should be together.
33. The Handmaid's Tale
I liked the first season more.
34. One Day At a Time
I love this show, Elena's story is amazing and I love all characters.
35. The Insatiable
This Netflix comedy staring Jessie's Debby Ryan was a bit psycho, but I liked it anyway.
36. Divorce
The Sarah Jessica Parker comedy. It's funny and I'm waiting for season 3.
37. Absentia
Stana Katic centred show about a cop that gets kidnapped, is stuck in a fish bowl and is waterboarded. All leads to a childhood mystery and It will be back for season 2.
38. Orange is the New Black
I just love this show and have followed it since day 1. I'm not that said about Daya's punishment, but It's awful what they've done to Red and Tasha.
39. Schooled
A spin off of The Goldbergs. Lanie abandoned her rock star dreams and become a high school teacher.
40. Grace and Frankie
I just love this show, and was scared it ended when Grace and Frankie were sent away to a retirement home at the end of last.
41. Light as a Feather
Girls play Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board and fall victims of a curse, as something wicked attaches itself to the spine of one.

Greys 13.22
Meredith giving away the tumor Derek drew for her so she can fuck her boyfriend in peace is appaling, and I like those two together. Parents don't want their kid to have surgery because of their strong faith in God. Stephanie gets suspended for throwing a tablet at the dad.
As someone who's been around a lot of death and been left behind by it, I can tell you, trust me, you don't want that.
You can go to jail again.
I can go to jail for this.
Don't let it hold you back. No more sitting here and waiting. Grab your new life by the hand and go out there and live it. Change is good.
The Goldbergs 4.23
Is it Jane Fonda?
It's from Gremlins.
Nashville 5.13
How did Deacon not think Maddie self harmed?! All the freaking songs this episode! Absolutely spectacular! Maddie's reendition of the Daria theme! Avery's song ! And the Exes too! The homeless girl crying at the photo of Rayna with her Deacon and the girls!
I feel so alone, keep heading home!
Or the foster drunks who never understood no means no.
Cause you're coming home with me.
I love you even when I don't.
Where's your real dad?
In jail.
What about your mom?
Do you mind me asking how old are you?
You can stay.
I'll be fine.
Just know I'll be there.
I'm on my way.
Riverdale 1.12
This is the episode where Madchen reinvented herself! She was absolutely fabulous in it! I am ready for Twin Peaks return. Shelly was my favorite in the original one. The scene where theCoopers walzed in was my second favorite this season.
I'm a Blossom?!
Which makes her and Jason relatives by blood.
Don't bother calling the cops, we're not staying.
Sorry to disturb the witching hourat Thornehill.
She chose to live here remember, with the mentally stable family.
Oh I know all about your family, Penelope and the incest.
Nothing could be more purely Blossom than those babies.
Enough of this Dr Moreau experimentation in breeding and eugenics! It's over!
There it is. Maybe syrup. Drown in it, why don't you!
Nancy Drew strikes again.
You did a bad thing daddy, and now everyone knows.
And then the unthinkable happened.
Pretty Little Liars 7.14
Lucas is definitely A.D. He has always been a stalker, and I have been suspicious of him since season two or something. The song Devil Devil by Milck is so freaking good.
Luke, Lucas maybe.
You know him?
You're sitting on his couch.
I remember the procedure.
I want to cancel my appointment.
No one can know how ciolated and used you must feel.
It's supposed to kand on Aria!
It pissed me off when Hanna said 'Childhood' teddy bear, that's why I hate season 7 so much, they all think they're so grown up and shit. How many times do I have to say this! Alison is not gay and never will be!
I think she's on the A.D. team.
I just received proof that yu were not in town at the time of the murder.
I'll tell you what we should do.
Why didn't we do that earlier?
I hope you enjoyed the game, Aria. I know I have.
It's Mona, signal is coming from inside the apartment.
Girlboss 1.01
Crying because of work, relatable. The thing she did where she lied to the person on the phone saying there was an ambulance passing by, so she could cry was incredible. So was the scene where she tried to push her car up the road on a gorgeous San Francisco street? Incredible! I just realizedthis year we got 3 shows based in San Francisco, Girlboss, When We Rise and Fuller House of course.
Did I eat her sandwich? Yeah.
Can you hold on a second, there's an ambulance next to me.
Bring on adulthood, motherfucker.
Hollywood Darlings 1.04
Who the fuck complained?!
I've been around the block enough to know when someone's about to fuck me up.
We'll give you 40% discount.
Modern Family 8.20
Why the hell did they think it's appropriate for Lily to have a bra at 9 years old?

My make-up was not insured.

I was moved by the co-pilot story about putting off your future because of an obstacle. Since that's what I've been doing for the last 4 yeavrs.
Ass-eater.
Mom, dad, ar you fighting?
Man I hope it's lesbian stuff.
She was hotter than a car seat in August.
Fucking up my life.
Frank what the fuck?

SVU 18.15
She was raped.
Women should be paranoid, it's a survival skill.

He locked the door, threw me on the couch and raped me.
He pushed me down and raped me.
But you did rape her.
That's not important.

My backup cookies!
Did youlose the step ladder you use to kiss her.
Cindy chased him away.
The guy at lunch who can't open his own banana.
Adam used a one-ply toilet paper and couldn't walk.
Smokey and the Bandit reference!
Poor Adam could barely walk.
No matter where I end up, I'll always be your sister.
With the love of my children and 20 flights a year, we'll manage.
Scandal 6.12
The drone is ours.
What kind of dildo fucks his hand.
Why does you hand smell like butter?
Why are you giving all the good jobs to the blacks?
Why the fuck am I watching this?
Reading at a 3 grade level is fucking up uour life.
I get it, it was one of those, shut up and fuck parties.
This song sounds like cats fucking.
If you don'tyou and that weird ass neighboor can stay home and fuck each other.
Don't improvise, it's not jazz motherfucker.
It could be worse, we could be that guy.
I just met jummy Hendricks.
You mean that drug addict who fucked up National Anthem?
Leave him alone or I will fucking eat you.
If you want ice cream, go to you friend's how and look sad.
And I have to come back home to my husband throwing meatballs at my oldest offspring, in front of the entire fucking neighboorhood.
Poor Jimmy.
Fuck Jimmy, he's gone!
Hey guys, saying each other's names?
He sorts baggage by race.
I'm nine.
Where the fuck is daddy?!
Enjoy your heroin.
I haven't slow clapped since the Kennedy was shot.
Nathan Fillion joins the cast.

I am a child of an immigrant single motehr.
How much money you're gonna leave to a murderer.
My phone English not so good.

That Everybody loves Raymond cameo.
Come on, Lexie, we're re-enacting the Friends opening.
You guys make life interesting.
No great author ever came from a functional family. You people are gonna make great characters in my book someday.
When you're young, you're never scared, but when you become an adult you're scared all the time. I think that's how you know you're becoming an adult.
It's hard to let go off your childhood.
Go ask your mom if you can have a pool.
I was raped.
He put his penis inside me.
Bates Motel 5.09
It always makes my day when they play The Beach Boys on my shows, most recently on The Leftovers. Here, Wouldn't It Be Nice suddenly started playing.
They found your mother's body.
It looks like she still lives here.
Everyone has multiple personalities.
Did you do Norma Bates' funeral?
We did.
I'm so sorry Norma.
Norman's sleeping now.
You need to take me to her body.
You killed your own mother.
My brother has some mental issues.
Sit down with mother.
Abby got played and why the hell are they showing the election from everyone's perspective? Half the season was about the night of the election.
You said it yourself, Cyrus, I'm a force.
I honestly don't know how Huck survived this.
Start spraying.
Oh my god, look at all that blood. What'd she do to him?
Huck may be dead. My Huck.
You've messed with the wrong Gladiator.
Miracle workers don't get to quit.
Alternative universe episode and Dan Buckatinsky is back.
No, we're not fixing the election.
Fitz is just a handsy man like his father.
I could have fixed the election.
At least I would've been the president.
I am not outing somebody else's husband. You of all people should understand why.
Elizabeth was killed off! Has Ellen said anything about it on her show? And Mellie's kids' lives got threatened. This scene was incredible.
I respect you, you survived more in this town than anyone could ever expect.
Not this murderer who got off on a technicality.
We will kill your children.
Alex had to take a semester off because she couldn't catch up on school work after having mono for a week?! What?!
The previous residents were murdered there.
You're gonna sell that murder house.
Jay is right, Luke's a dummy.
I'm graduating.
The thing with no is if you say it too much, people will stop asking you.
Hostages aren't normally allowed to make outgoing calls.
Polly is having twins.
I want my daughter back, you asshole.
The storm of chaos names Cheryl Blossom.
Don't go all dark Betty on me.
I'm not normal.
That night I saw the real you, the dark you.
In case you haven't noticed, I'm weird. I'm a weirdo.
You're the perfect girl next door.
There's this darkness inside of me, it's overwhelming.
The Simpsons 28.18
Too much praise creates Millenials, a generation of soft, entitled halfwits who frop out of college to become DJs.
I have missed this show so much. It's always a 10.
You're a pervert?
He's a cop.
So he can solve your murder.
Is everybody in your family a loser?
Get the fuck out of here.
Oh fuck me.
Oh I should have died in Korea.
That's not lady like.
What the fuck is wrong with you.
You heartless whore.
He died.
Wait, is Jeff Garlin reading for Frank's boss? I never realized it but it sure sounds a lot like him. I need to check that later.
Stop touching yourself.
How fast can you type? I don't care I could stare at that rack all day.
And another kid wants to be a mortician, because it's less scary than Hollywood.
How the fuck could Jodie give Mr. Bear away?!
My darkest were a little later.
Shit, Mr. Bear, momma fucked up, I'm so sorry.
I hate them, their hope and hymen.
Everybody say cheese.
Fuck my life.
The kidnapped girl who never got kidnapped.
You ever noticed how she's always the victim?
This show is just embarrassing itself this season. 5 years later was the stupidest idea. It did not bring anything to the show and none of the liars grew up.
Welcome to ReviewThisFilm
This website started as weekly reviews on movies and tv episodes, and a diary of the 700 new films I watched every year. Today it's a place for me to write a few words on films and tv shows that leave some sort of impact on me. I no longer write in depth reviews, partially thanks to bad habits gained by spending many hours a day on Letterboxd, and partially because of my demanding day job.
If you have a film you would like me to watch and review, please leave a comment.

I am the dark and twisty Meredith Grey, the mad Dexter Morgan, hoping to grow up to be a little more like the wise, but fun Nora Walker. I am an aspiring filmmaker. My favorite actresses are Jodie Foster, Sally Field and Julianne Moore. Favorite genre – psychological drama. I watch anything with a sexual or mental abuse plot. I used to be a horror freak. I am obsessed with Grey's Anatomy, SVU and many more. My other interests include making oil and pencil portraits and wildlife conservation. I cannot say no to beautiful landscapes, travel, Aussie accent, TV/film quotes and avocados. I have recently moved back from Australia to the UK. I've been running this blog for the last 9 years. Here I comment on films and episodes I watch. Enjoy! – Joanne

Goodbye 2019! I enjoyed throwing this post together last year, so here it is again, my favourite magazine covers and favourite book of 2019! 2019 was a good year for me. I've met the goals I had set out for myself last year. Since July I've been successfully putting my health first and as a result became the happiest and healthiest I've been in 11 years. I became a British Citizen and got my first British passport and I went on a few fun trips that were so enjoyable and personal I didn't feel the need to post picture evidence online. My resolutions and objectives for 2020 are exciting and for the first time since 2013, I am hopeful, and cannot wait to see what the new year has in store for me. Happy 2020!! #newyearseve #happy2020 #juliannemoore #angelinajolie #naomiwatts #mariskahargitay #andreabarber #reesewitherspoon #jenniferaniston #bindiirwin #robertirwin #theirwins #crikeyitstheirwins #australiazoo @andreabarber #magazinecovers #fullhouse #fullerhouse #svu #taylorswift
Noticed these two yesterday on my way to buy Christmas gifts at Waterstone's. You know my love for wildlife, I just had to stop and snap this. 🐧
Spent some time in Bham this week.
Goodbye 2018! Happy New Year featuring my favorite book of 2018 and 5 favorite covers of the year. I think I may make it a tradition and take a similar photo next year. May 2019 be everything you want it to be and so much more!
Merry Christmas everyone! 🎄🎁
Binley, I've missed you.
The indoor aqua park in the middle of the city centre is starting to make Coventry look worthy of its City of Culture 2021 title, especially from this spot, accompanied by (part of) Coventry Cathedral.
Worth staying up for! Coventry, 7:34am.
🎄 Merry Christmas! #coventry
Bull Yard looks especially magical today
Christmas came early! Let's be honest, it's the only snow we'll see all year.
This lovely sunset greeted me as I stepped out of the cinema after seeing Suburbicon last Thursday.
Doesn't get more Cov than this. #godiva #ladygodiva
Sunset right now.
For someone who lives 2h from London, I sure don't visit enough.
Got to hear the gong one more time before the renovations fully start!
Subtle sunrise just now.
Add me on Goodreads
'When I lived in Porpoise Spit, I used to sit in my room for hours and listen to ABBA songs. But since I've met you and moved to Sydney, I haven't listened to one Abba song. That's because my life is as good as an Abba song. It's as good as Dancing Queen.' (Muriel's Wedding)
'I used to think about
your life in New York. I tried to imagine your room. I kept track of the time difference, so I knew when you were awake and when you were asleep.' (Disobedience)
'Nothing's clean, Howard. But we do our best, right?' (The Aviator)
'No, I'm not quitting. I don't quit things.'
'No, actually you do. Your mother quit your father. Your father quit you. You quit your boyfriend and if I read your hospital chart correctly you quit your life momentarily on a couple of occasions. You quit. It's what you know how to do.' (Greys)
'Where the hell was I that year?'
'Your were watching television'. (Everybody Loves Raymond)
'It's impossible to worry about anything else when there's blood coming out of you.'
(Short Term 12)
'I wanted it to happen. And when we were girls… Even then, it was the same. It's always been this way! I have always wanted it.' (Disobedience)
'Sometimes it's easy, sometimes you play games in your head. You make up someone, someone good.' (Greys)
'I just need something to happen. I need a sign that things are going to change. I need a reason to go on. I need some hope. And in the absence of hope, I need to stay in bed a feel like I might die today.' (Greys)
'She saved me my whole life. Without her, I'm nothing.' (The Favourite)
'Don't wonder why people go crazy. Wonder why they don't. In face of what we can lose in a day, in an instant, wonder what the hell it is that make us hold it together.' (Greys)
'I am not food, you cannot just eat and eat.' (The Favourite)
'I don't love him.'
'Of course you do.'
'No!'
'Don't take me for a fool Olive, I'm many things but I'm not a fool.'
'I know that, you're brilliant.'
'Don't you see, it's over. Whatever this is, was, it's over.'
'I love You.' (Professor Marston and the Wonder Women)
'At the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing, is reason enough to celebrate.' (Greys)
'What happened last year when you fell in the water?'
'I almost drowned. Do you think I did that for kicks?'
'You put your hand in a body cavity that contained unexploded ammunition.'
'I was trying to save a patient!'
'Why is it that every other person in that room had the sense to hit the deck? You know people run away from this line between life and death. You seem to stand on it and wait for a strong wind to sway you one way or the other. You're careless with your life. You're not slitting your wrists but you're careless. Probably because your mother told you you were a waste of space on this planet. The problem is you believed her. And if you don't want out one of these days you're going to die because of it.' (Greys)
'Was your life not working when you let that slip out from under you?'
'When are you going to stop suggesting that I'm suicidal?'
'When you start acting like someone that wants to be alive.'
'Give me my chart.'
'Because I'm not suicidal, and if it says that I am, then it's wrong.' (Greys)
'There is nothing wrong with me.'
'Then show me your arm.' (Degrassi)
'Look, my whole life, I have been the freak. The girl who nobody picked for dodgeball. The girl who didn't have a mom. The girl who dressed funny because it was her dad buying her clothes. And then, tonight I looked at these people, and I thought maybe there's a future where I don't have to be a freak. Maybe I can be who I am and that's okay.' (Everything Sucks)
'Dr, I have been this way since…since I can remember. There is no cure.' (American Horror Story)
'He was so crazy about me, I couldn't breathe. So we tried drinking our way back into love, but it never made sense in the morning. So I ran. And every time I came back, he was here. And he was still crazy about me.' (My Blueberry Nights)
'All we have is this moment. The future is just a fucking concept that we use to avoid being alive today. So be… here…. now.' (Six Feet Under)
'On the train coming here, we were in the same cart, I saw you, you were reading and you feel asleep. I didn't dare to look at you, you were so beautiful, it was scary. Afterwards, I couldn't stop thinking about you. It made me smile. Then I thought of all the men who would get to hold you, who'd make you laugh. How lucky they were.' (Enemy at the Gates)
'It was a good day. Maybe even a great day. Even when it was hard, I was the me in my head. There was a moment when I thought I cant do this, I cant do this alone. I close my eyes and imagine myself doing it, and I did, I blocked out the fear, and I did it.' (Greys)
'Why did you get married, Esti? Why didn't you just leave? So everything was all right when I left?'
'No. I was ill.'
'What sort of ill?'
'In my head.'
'If I had to sleep with a man, why not with our best friend?'
'Oh, Esti…'
'It hasn't been a complete disaster.'
'And that's enough?! Do you have to have sex every Friday?'
'It's expected.'
'It's medieval. What happened to you?'
'Nothing. You happened to me. And then I started teaching and that became important. I give them ambition.'
'To do what? Push out seven babies and be a good wife?'
'Don't. Don't. I help them to value themselves.'
'Okay, but what about you?'
'That is me. And you? Are you happy?'
'Yes, I am.'
'Have you been with other women?'
'No. Not really. And you?'
'But, Esti… Do you still
only fancy women?' (Disobedience)
'You will be left all alone with your bitterness and your rage and your knowledge that you loved her and she loved you and you threw it away for them.'
'Do you love her?'
'And Have you always?'
'So then ask her.'
'Olive, will you forgive me?' (Professor Marston and the Wonder Women)
'No razors, no scissors, no fucking freedom.'
'You can't take a picture of this. It's already gone.' (Six Feet Under)

Where can you eat good vegan food in Suffolk?
Struggling to eat out on your plant-based diet? Try one of these Suffolk cafes, pubs and restaurants.
So you're vegan. Or you're thinking about going vegan. It's not easy eating a plant-based diet outside the comfort of your own meat and dairy-free home, but it's certainly getting better. Satisfied they've ticked the gluten-free box, many cafes, restaurants and pubs are now putting so much more effort into keeping their vegan patrons happy. Gone are the days of having to pretend you're OK eating the house salad while your mates chomp on burgers. Vegan food has become more creative, and more exciting than ever before.
Here's just a selection of local spots where you can eat well without feeling like the odd one out.
This cafe's long had a great reputation for making delicious, home-cooked, wholesome and hearty vegetarian food, and vegans are well-served too. You'll find lots of things to choose from, be that warming vegan soups, curries (these are excellent) or something a little bit different – recently there was a bean, mushroom and carrot tagine with couscous salad and preserved lemon dressing. Fancy.
A multi-award-winning boutique hotel and restaurant that puts just as much effort into its vegan and vegetarian dishes as those on the regular menu. Expect unusual ingredients and exciting flavour combinations which will set those tastebuds on fire. At the moment, for example, there's a lentil dhal with golden raisins, coriander and almond, a white bean ragout with girolles, cavolo nero and salsify, and king oyster mushrooms with sea beets, beetroot and pickled carrot.
Make sure you book, because this place fills up very quickly indeed at lunchtimes. Using locally sourced organic vegetables, their own milled flour and their own blend of vegan butter, owners Holly and Christophe work culinary wizardry in their kitchen. The croissants alone are worth going for. Or the vibrant and healthy turmeric lattes. Don't visit at lunchtime without trying their tartine – Cradle bread topped with a melee of goodies, from homemade vegetable creams, to roasted and pickled seasonal veg and salad leaves.
If you're dining out with kids in tow, the whole family will appreciate this bright and spacious, welcoming pub, which is vegetarian but with many vegan options. Portions are plentiful, and the flavours really are bang-on to the point that meat-eaters happily return here and don't feel they're missing a thing. Check out the peanut, lentil and wild mushroom burger with chunky chips and onion rings, or the maple roasted pumpkin and black bean chilli with wild rice and nachos.
Head chef Justin Kett (winner of Chef of the Year in the Eat Suffolk Food and Drink Awards 2018) worked with Delicious Nutritious in Felixstowe to come up with a fresh, plant-based additional menu for the Brasserie. Recent plates have included a pea and rocket salad with pumpkin seeds, watercress and lemon dressing, and marinated tomato salad with nut milk mushrooms, kohlrabi, courgettes, carrots and rocket leaves.
A welcome stop off point on the A140. Jan certainly knows her flavours and you'll be surprised by the breadth of options you have to choose from here. We can recommend the homemade sweet potato pakoras with red lentil dhal, mini poppadoms, salad and parsnip and chilli chutney. Curries are a favourite at the pub, whose smoked almond tofu laksa goes down a treat. And you simply have to try the vegan Oreo torte. It is fab.
This new café on Cemetary Road is closed until November 15 (2018) but is well worth checking out once the owners return. The menu has proved a real hit, and is totally plant-based. Earlier this month they were dishing out caramelised onion, squash, mushroom and vegan cream cheese pasties, leek, black kale and cashew soup, and colourful salads and curries. Ooh, plus vegan waffles too.
Ruth Watson may no longer be at the helm, but the spirit of her food (regional Italian) lives on in the menus, with separate vegan and vegetarian menus offered and changing regularly. There are mainstays such as the vegetable fritto misto, while other plates could include an earthy Umbrian lentil ragu with girolles and cavolo nero, or roasted pumpkin and sage risotto with pumpkin seeds and house salad.
Opened just a few days ago, this café is a real family affair, with mum, dad and their two daughters all working together to make Felixstowe the place to go for plant-based cuisine. Aside from the impressive drinks menu, supporting ethical growers, and serving Bury St Edmunds' F and E coffee, you'll find temptations such as homemade vegan cakes, blackcurrant croissants, and fresh homemade guac' and homemade tomato salsa on toast (from the bakery in Walton).
Head chef Tom recently trialled several new vegan and vegetarian dishes – from delicate courgette flowers stuffed with grains and served with a spiced pepper sauce, to fennel tempura with crushed chickpeas and pickled fennel. Many of the new dishes have made it onto the vegetarian Christmas menu, and there is now always a separate vegetarian menu with vegan options. At the moment these range from roasted gnocchi with cob nut, sage and roasted artichoke, to red lentil curry with spinach and fenugreek basmati rice, naan, poppadum and homemade mango and lime chutney.
