Stress. We all hate it, but we all experience it.
It can make us emotional, drained and tired. But luckily, there are ways to combat it.
Knowing how to relax is important to wind down after a long day. So today I'm going to share my top tips for a cosy and relaxing night in!
One of my favourite ways to wind down in the evenings, stick on some good telly! Personally, I love binge watching a series on Netflix, there's nothing better, and you'll never run out of programmes to watch.
If you want a really high quality TV, check out the Panasonic Oled Televisions*. These are a new generation of TV, which aim to ensure the picture represents the filmmaker's visions. These remarkable screens are even used in Hollywood filmmaking, you can't get much better than that!
So every episode of Friends will be in even better quality, hoorah! A couple of other TV recommendations I have for you are The 100, How to get away with murder, Silent Witness and Gossip Girl!
I don't think anyone can deny the sheer power of a warm bath and a face mask. It's just the best self care medicine, isn't it?
If you'd like a list of 60 self care ideas, check out my other post here!
Running a bath, popping in a bath bomb and just soaking for a while can make the world of difference. If you're not a bath person, no worries! Having a warm shower does the trick too.
Remember not to neglect your skin after a bath! Apply your skincare routine, an all over body moisturiser and maybe some hair oil. This is my favourite body moisturiser, I use it every day without fail.
If you want to see my current skincare routine, read about how I've cleared my skin in 1 month here.
Yes, I can feel the drop in your stomach as you imagine a whole hour detached from your phone. But trust me, it can do wonders! Spend some time with family, read a book or cook your favourite meal instead! Use your time wisely.
Social media can be a big time sucker, and can cause unnecessary stress seeing all these 'perfect' people's highlight reels in instagram. Social media can be great, but know when it's time to give it a break!
Trying to do this a few times a week has helped me feel a little less stressed, and appreciate things other than my phone more.
You know when you've had a stressful day, but there's still 101 things to do when you get home? I know the feeling.
Allow yourself an evening to forget that to-do list, and tackle it with a fresh head the next day. Don't let overwhelm get the better of you! Put the to do list out the way and ignore it for just one evening. Letting yourself have that little break can do you the world of good!
A brilliant way to relax, I love doing both of these. It allows you time to connect with yourself, and ignore your surroundings. Make sure you practise it in a relatively quiet environment for ultimate relaxation!
My favourite youtube channel for yoga is Yoga with Adriene. She's an amazing coach and helps beginners right up to professionals! Give her a try!
For meditation, there's an app called Headspace which I really like. I'm trying to get into meditation more, as I rarely do it at the moment. Give it a go! It can be a real stress release. How to relax? Meditate!
This is a weather dependent one, as nobody wants to take a walk in the pouring rain. But after a long day, especially if I have been stuck inside all day, I find a walk a brilliant remedy.
Just experiencing the fresh air outside can really help relieve stress and bring you peace. I really enjoy sitting amongst nature when the sun is shining outside, connecting to your environment can make you feel amazing!
So there are my top tips for relaxing after a stressful day. Remember to check out the Panasonic TV's I mentioned earlier, they really are amazing!
How do you relax after a long day? Let me know in the comments!

A good ol' pamper sesh is my favourite way to de-stress after a long day. There's something about relaxing in a warm bubbly bath that just melts your stress away.
Sending lots of positive vibes for the end of the week!
Thanks so much gorgeous! It's an amazing way to relax!
There's that moment when I realize I can just … stop. That feels good. Going to the gym is also good!
There is nothing I find more relaxing than that short period of time where I turn off my computer and my phone and walk away, especially as someone who works on social media. I try to make a point of doing so at least once every day.
Yes im really making an effort to do that more often! It's so good to take a break from the online world!
This list was so good! I always watch some good TV and have hot bath if I'm feeling a bit off it. I can't wait for autumn when stranger things is back on my TV, it's going to hinder my productivity after sixth form so much but I can't wait!! Great post.
Ah thanks so much for the love!! Ooh yes a hot bath is the perfect remedy!! Bring on autumn!
A hot bubbly bath is my perfect way to relax!
Ooh i love baths so much!!

Q: returning subscriber in RxJava after storing data fetch from webservice I am trying to call the web service to fetch the data and storing it into database using following code. I have created a separate class to perform following operation.
Now , the issue is i want to notify my activity when i successfully fetch and store data in database. if some error occurs then i want to show that on UI itself.
somehow i am able to write a code to fetch the data using pagination but not sure how would i notify UI where i can subscribe catch the update related to progress and error if any.

        });

in a web service call
public void getFitnessData() {

        Request request = new Request();
        request.setAccess_token("d80fa6bd6f78cc704104d61146c599bc94b82ca225349ee68762fc6c70d2dcf0");

                        r.executeTransaction((realm) -> {
                            realm.copyToRealmOrUpdate(response.getFitness());
                        });
                    }
                }).subscribe(item ->{

                 },
                 error ->{

                     RxBus.getInstance().error(error);

                 });
    }

A: I have good news for you! You can delete almost all of that code and just make it generally better as a result!
public void fetchFitnessData() {

    Request request = new Request();
    request.setAccess_token("d80fa6bd6f78cc704104d61146c599bc94b82ca225349ee68762fc6c70d2dcf0");

    Flowable<Response> fitnessFlowable = new WebRequest()
                                        .getRemoteClient()
                                        .create(FitnessApi.class)
                                        .getFitnessData("5b238abb4d3590001d9b94a8",request.toMap());

     fitnessFlowable.subscribeOn(Schedulers.io())
            .takeUntil(response->response.getSummary().getNext()!=null)
            .doOnNext((response) -> {
                    if(response ==null || response.getFitness() == null || response.getFitness().isEmpty()) return;

                    try(Realm r = Realm.getDefaultInstance()) {
                        r.executeTransaction((realm) -> {
                            realm.insertOrUpdate(response.getFitness());
                        });
                    }
                }
            }).subscribe();
}

This method is on a background thread now and returns void, so the way to emit stuff out of this method would be to use either a PublishSubject (one for success, one for failure) or an EventBus.
private PublishSubject<Object> fitnessResults;
public Observable<Object> observeFitnessResults() {
    return fitnessResults;
}

public static class Success {
    public Success(List<Fitness> data) {
        this.data = data;
    }

    public List<Fitness> data;
}

public static class Failure {
    public Failure(Exception exception) {
        this.exception = exception;
    }

    public Exception exception;
}

public void fetchFitnessData() {
    ...
        fitnessResults.onNext(new Success(data));
    } catch(Exception e) {
        fitnessResults.onNext(new Failure(e));

And then
errors = observeFitnessResults().ofType(Error.class);
success = observeFitnessResults().ofType(Success.class);

A: There are different ways to achieve this. I will never handle the subscriptions on my own out of a lifecycle scope as it creates a possibility of memory leak. In your case it seems that both success and failure is bound to the UI so you can simply do this.
public Completable fetchFitnessData() {

Request request = new Request();
request.setAccess_token("d80fa6bd6f78cc704104d61146c599bc94b82ca225349ee68762fc6c70d2dcf0");

Flowable<Response> fitnessFlowable = new WebRequest()
                                    .getRemoteClient()
                                    .create(FitnessApi.class)
                                    .getFitnessData("5b238abb4d3590001d9b94a8",request.toMap());

 return fitnessFlowable.subscribeOn(Schedulers.io())
        .takeUntil(response->response.getSummary().getNext()!=null)
        .doOnNext((response) -> {
                if(response ==null || response.getFitness() == null || response.getFitness().isEmpty()) return;

                try(Realm r = Realm.getDefaultInstance()) {
                    r.executeTransaction((realm) -> {
                        realm.insertOrUpdate(response.getFitness());
                    });
                }
            }
        }).ignoreElements();

}
At UI level, you can just handle your subscription with both success and failure. In case you need success model can replace Completable with Single or Flowable.
fetchFitnessData.subscrible(Functions.EMPTY_ACTION, Timber::d);

The major advantage with this approach is that you handle your subscription lifecycles.

The Eurozone: Deflationary Boom Or Deflationary Bust?
Δεν επιτρέπεται σχολιασμός στο The Eurozone: Deflationary Boom Or Deflationary Bust?
Weeks, John, (2015), "The Eurozone: Deflationary Boom Or Deflationary Bust?", Social Europe Journal, 6 Νοεμβρίου. Several years ago the idea that fiscal austerity could induce growth, "expansionary austerity", had a brief flowering before withering under the heat of ridicule. Recently it resurfaced under a different name, "deflationary boom". If expansionary austerity was oxymoronic, deflationary boom is simply moronic.

Gaspar, Vitor, Hagan, Sean, (2015), "Corruption : A Hidden Tax on Growth", iMFdirect, 5 Νοεμβρίου. In recent years, citizens' concerns about allegations of corruption in the public sector have become more visible and widespread. From São Paulo to Johannesburg, citizens have taken to the streets against graft. In countries like Chile, Guatemala, India, Iraq, Malaysia and Ukraine, they are sending a clear and loud message to their leaders: Address corruption!

Income inequality in pre-industrial Europe
Δεν επιτρέπεται σχολιασμός στο Income inequality in pre-industrial Europe
Alfani, Guido, Ryckbosch, Wouter, (2015), "Income inequality in pre-industrial Europe", Voxeu, 6 Νοεμβρίου. Thomas Piketty and others have prompted renewed interest in understanding long-term patterns of inequality. This column presents evidence from pre-industrial Europe. Inequality rose even during the success stories of early modern Europe, but it can hardly have been the sole requisite for growth. In both economic history and today's economic theory, the idea of a universal trade-off between growth and …Read More
The End Of German Hegemony – Really?

Saraceno, Francesco, (2015), "The End Of German Hegemony – Really?", Social Europe, 3 Νοεμβρίου. I was puzzled by Daniel Gros' recent column in which he claims that Germany's dominance of the EMU may be coming to an end. Gros' argument is based on two facts. The first is the slowing growth rate of Germany, that seems to be heading towards the pre-crisis "normal" of slow growth (Germany grew less than the EMU …Read More

Frimmel, Wolfgang, Winter-Ebmer, Rudolf, (2015), "The contribution of the wage structure to early retirement behaviour", Voxeu, 28 Οκτωβρίου. The literature on retirement age has tended to focus on the supply side of the labour market. Using Austrian data, this column examines how firms can influence workers' retirement decisions through wage structure. Deferred compensations schemes characterised by steeper seniority-wage profiles are found to be associated with workers retiring earlier. Given that early labour …Read More

According to *Constructionweekonline news report, Dubai's GDP recorded a growth rate of 1.94% in 2018 to reach a value of $108.4bn (AED398.1bn), with the construction, infrastructure, and real estate sectors all playing a significant role in this surge over the last 12 months, according to data published by Dubai Statistics Centre (DSC).
Construction and infrastructure projects contributed 14.5% more to the economy in 2018 than in the 12 months prior, DSC's report showed. Dubai's construction sector grew by 4.5% in 2018, expanding its growth rate by 1% over 2017.
According to the report, the construction sector's overall contribution to Dubai's GDP was recorded at 6.4%.
Arif Al Muhairi, executive director of DSC, added that government spending on infrastructure projects saw an upward trend in Dubai last year, increasing by 32% in 2018.
The investment in infrastructure projects "proves that the government is moving forward in developing and enhancing Dubai's infrastructure, which plays a strategic role in supporting the economic development and providing a supporting and stimulating environment for business sector to flourish", Dubai Media Office reported, citing Al Muhairi.

Hey all, Son of Adam here with the next part on The Road to NOVA. Recently the provisionary FAQ came out. This is interesting even if you are not going to NOVA because you can discuss the legitimacy of some of their FAQ'd answers to some of the holes in the new edition before GW officially makes a ruling on it.
Flyers in locked velocity just remain in their speed "set" that is combat speed or cruising speed.
The death ray (Necron Doom Scythe's main weapon) can only resolve a hit against a flyer if it is shooting in skyfire mode.
Eldar can target their squad for fortune, guide even if battle brother characters have joined.
Wounds do not carry over after challenges.
The Space Wolves Wolf Standard needs to be declared for the next assault phase, meaning that if you wish to use it in the same turn you are in, it must be declared as late as that turn's shooting phase.
Space Wolves may use their staff, wolf talisman, and deny the witch roll for each psychic power used against them.
All perils of the warp from Mindstrike Missiles on a squad with Brotherhood of psykers are resolved against the one character (or randomly selected model) in that squad.
These are pretty interesting and there are a lot more in the actually FAQ. Check it out. I especially think the one about grounded monstrous creatures is interesting. I'm not sure if it helps them or hurts them; maybe a bit of both. I also appreciate the clarification for the Doom Scythe's Death Ray, it balances it in a legitimate way.
I'm interested to see what else they change in the revision.
Have at it folks. Anything you disagree with? Anything you are surprised at? Anything you are happy about?
Hey all. Son of Adam here from MasterCraft Gaming. Well fellas, I'm heading out to NOVA this year, and with the advent of 6th edition this is going to be a crazy and challenging tournament. I'm looking forward to it.
I'm opening up this series on the road to NOVA with some introductory thoughts, predictions, and aspirations about this year's competition.
To start off, for those of you who don't know, NOVA is one of the top five largest events in the country for 40k. This GT is a three day, eight-round, 256-player, 2k tournament down in Arlington Virginia. The results of the 2012 tournament will go a long way to shape the meta and conventional wisdom about 6th edition.
Expect to see more fliers in the 6th Edition.
I, for one, am very excited about the opportunity to participate in such a rare tournament. Let me explain to you what I mean. Each year the top players in the country travel out to these tournaments, and they bring the best they can to fight for glory (or mediocre internet notoriety and some respect at their local club). These players seek out to break or beat the meta. This year however, things are different. This year there is no meta.
Players will be trying to break what they think the meta will be. There have already been some extreme and frightening combinations that people have come up with in the new rules, and people are starting to think of them when considering what to bring. In addition to all of the different predictions and their proposed counters, other players will simply be bringing what they brought to 5th edition tournaments. The diversity of lists should make this a very entertaining event. Contrary to this years Adepticon, I don't expect to find 25% of the players bringing Grey Knights, for the one reason that, nobody knows what the "Grey Knights" of 6th edition is yet.
This edition does seem like a bit of a rock, paper, scissors type of game, which I like, but this makes the eccentric quality of the lists being brought very interesting. Let no one fool you, as much skill as will be present, luck will play no small part in determining the victor this year. Some of the new lists are fantastic against what was good in 5th edition, some lists, in anticipation, counters those, while other list, that remain 5th edition lists, will naturally be good against those counter lists.
This type of event happens very rarely. A huge national event, with the advent of a new edition, where there has been no other national event to shape the meta prior. Needless to say, I am stoked to be attending.
Now that I have put out some introductory thoughts with some predictions hidden in there, let's talk about some of the particulars of what I expect. I think there are five new aspects of the game that got a big change in the new edition and I think people will be looking to break the game there. Those aspects are; fliers, psykers, monstrous creatures (flying and otherwise), 2+ save/Deathstar units, and allied combinations.
If you are building a list for NOVA, consider using one of these and make sure you build your list with a defense against all of these. I would count on having to play each one of these. We don't have space to give a brief overview of all of these groups here (believe me I tried) so I am just going to post up, bullet style, some considerations for each.
• Fliers excel with their fire power, denial of targets, and mobility.
• However, I have seen that they struggle with keeping something on the ground alive, contributing points to table quarters (a bigger deal for NOVA than other tournaments), and killing enough mass models with a solid cover save.
• The new psykers have some crazy tricks, but they are hard to play and the powers are random to get.
Psykers can randomly generate strong powers.
• With the powers being random and easy to stop, most are simply trying to make sure that no one can use psykers against them rather than employing some themselves.
• Monstrous creatures do have an inherent weakness against fliers as they can be hit by them but can not hit them easily in return.
• They have gotten better with an easier time at getting cover, and a potentially longer charge range.
• With the advent of challenges I think where these guys will shine is in tar-pitting units or hiding in combat.
• Large hard to kill death-stars will be harder to kill and more deadly with the changes to wound allocation and with the combination of allies.
• However, with NOVA and the focus on objectives/table quarters, they can be fought with good deployment, and tactical evasion.
• Some of the allied combos are great a combating an armies weaknesses and pulling off some great complimentary effects.
• These are really limited by the allies chart and the fact that you still need to stay within the points allotment. (It seems obvious, but will startle you every time you build a list with them).
• They may shine best with small allied detachments to throw in some unexpected quarks and filling in wholes.
Those are just a few quick tips on what I expect and how to treat them.
As for my aspirations; this year I have been trying to stay pure and go with a single army (no allies). I have always enjoyed the challenge of taking what could be considered a bad list and doing well with it. We will get more into what I am taking in another post.
I have done some play testing with it against some of the aforementioned lists and done fairly well. My hopes are simple; to represent my dex well and shake up some things for 6th edition. I have built a list that I think counters most of what I am anticipating, without suffering too much from what people holding onto 5th will bring. It's a tough line to walk, but I'm trying hard. More on this as things move forward.

Dementia Incriminated as Possible Cause in Bee Population Decline
June 10, 2015 By Karla Connors Leave a Comment
Scientists have been pointing towards the steep decline in bee population for some time now. Although initially blamed on pesticide oversaturation and mite infestation, the 40 percent drop in bee population may be attributable to dementia.
Last year alone, bee populations across the United States have dwindled and in total, they lost more than 42 percent of their representatives. Moreover, as scientists reveal, it's for the first time that bee deaths during the summer time have outweighed winter deaths. With beehive loss percentages as high as 63 percent, researchers attempted to identify the cause of such steep declines.
A recent study that resulted after the collaboration of scientists from the University of Sussex and Keele University, revealed that aluminium contamination may, in fact, be the root of all evil. Aluminium contamination is believed to be the cause of dementia and additional debilitating cognitive dysfunction in bee populations.
Aluminium acts as a neurotoxin in both animals and humans. Contamination with the element often results in behavioural shifts, and as one would expect, bees are some of the most cognitive function-dependent representatives of the animal kingdom. Everyday behaviour, such as nectar gathering, navigation, returning home, depends on the data that bees process and integrate.
"Aluminum-induced cognitive dysfunction may play a role in their population decline: are we looking at bees with Alzheimer's disease?" Chris Exley, Keele University researcher said.
Alongside Dave Goulson, Exley tested bumblebee pupae, searching for possible aluminum contamination. They analyzed multiple bee colonies and measured the levels of aluminum and concluded that the majority of pupae had been exposed to massive amounts of the element.
For the human brain, as much as 3ppm(parts per million) of Aluminum is considered harmful, yet after having tested the bee pupae, Exley and Goulson found that almost all of the tested pupae had levels as high as 220ppm.
Scientists have long known that aluminum represents one of the major environmental contaminants in recent years, however, they hadn't anticipated its effects. Other studies have connected aluminum contamination with a decline in fish population and now, Exley and Goulson are convinced that the same contamination is responsible for disrupting a bee's cognitive process.
Granted, there is a multitude of contributing factors which could explain the decline in bee population, from parasite attacks to a lack of flowers and even pesticide exposure. Yet this new data may point horticulturists and specialists in a better direction.
Aluminum may stem from various origins, including fossil fuel burning, agriculture aiming for high sulphate soils or aluminum mining. Hopefully in the future, researchers will be able to find ways of preventing bee population declines, especially since the human race (as well as the animal kingdom) rely so heavily on the work they do.

The Yanks Are Welcome in Oz
On its 60th anniversary, the U.S.-Australia security alliance faces new threats—especially from China.
The USS McCampbell sails past the Opera House in Sydney, Australia.
By Andrew Shearer
This week, senior Australian and American national security officials meet to mark the 60th anniversary of their security alliance, in San Francisco—the very city where the Anzus treaty was signed.
The alliance has played an important part in anchoring the U.S. presence in Asia since the Second World War. Australia has benefited from the resulting security umbrella, intelligence and advanced military technology from America. The United States has gained from joint intelligence facilities and a reliable ally willing and able to maintain stability in its immediate neighborhood and to contribute further afield. Australia has sent men and materiel to conflicts in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan. It was quick to invoke the Anzus Treaty after 9/11.

Trailer Revealed for Finale of Telltale's The Walking Dead: The Final Season
The fourth and final episode, titled "Take Us Back," will debut on March 26th.
Following a dramatic cliffhanger, in true Telltale's The Walking Dead fashion, the very last episode of the series is nearly upon us and we have one final trailer to hold you over until its arrival. After the sudden closure of Telltale Games, Robert Kirkman's very own Skybound Games opted to continue the project and give the episodic game the ending it deserves. This final episode, titled "Take Us Back," is the culmination of that effort as it brings the story of Clementine and her charge, AJ, to a close.
This is certainly a bittersweet occasion for fans of the series, who have been following the character of Clementine since she was under the watchful gaze of Season 1 protagonist, Lee. Now, the roles have reversed and she finds herself fighting for survival against the living and dead alike as she seeks to keep AJ alive in a world more dangerous than ever. The journey is almost over, but fans can surely appreciate that Skybound gave us the opportunity to find closure following the tumultuous end of Telltale.
After a brief hiatus, The Walking Dead: The Final Season is now once again available for purchase as usual on the PlayStation and Xbox stores, with the PC version now listed exclusively on the Epic Games Store. Episode 3, "Broken Toys," is available now with the final episode, titled "Take Us Back," launching on March 26th, 2019 alongside the physical boxed edition of the game.
Stay tuned to Dead Entertainment for all the latest as this series wraps up.

Winter Olympics 2018: Jamaica's women to compete in bobsleigh 30 years after men
By Nick Hope
BBC Olympic sports reporter
http://www.bbc.com/sport/winter-olympics/42700681
Jamaica's men's bobsleigh team made history in Calgary in 1988
Jamaica is sending a women's bobsleigh team to next month's Winter Olympics, 30 years after the country's men made their first historic appearance.
They will be led in Pyeongchang by Jazmine Fenlator, who competed for USA as a push-athlete at Sochi 2014.
The men made their legendary Olympic debuts at Calgary in 1988, which led to the making of the film Cool Runnings.
Jamaica's women will be targeting a top-10 result, having finished seventh at December's Winterberg World Cup.
American-born Fenlator switched to join her father's native Jamaica in 2015.
"Pyeongchang will be my second appearance at the Winter Games, but it is just as special as my first," the 32-year-old said.
"This time I have the opportunity to represent my other home - Jamaica - and make history as the first female team representing the country in the Winter Olympic Games."
Brakewoman Carrie Russell, who won a gold medal in the 4x100m relay at the World Athletics Championships in 2013, will make her first Winter Olympic appearance in South Korea.
"This is one of the happiest moments of my life," the 27-year-old said. "I never dreamed that I would become a bobsled athlete."
Fenlator and Russell will be joined in the team by brakewoman Audra Segree, who also competed on the track as a sprinter.
"A leap of faith and a dream come true later I will be representing my country as one of the first women bobsled athletes in the Olympics," Segree, 27, said.
"I am overwhelmed with joy knowing that I have helped make history for my country. I am really grateful for this experience."
Jamaica's men's team is currently ranked 31st in the Olympic qualification list and there are 30 places in the competition.
If any higher-placed nation withdraws their team, Jamaica would be given a qualification spot for their seventh appearance in the men's two-man event.
On Monday, Nigeria's women's bobsleigh team announced they would be the first African sled to compete at a Winter Olympics.

COTTONDALE | The Pottery Grill will reopen its doors Friday, more than two months after a fire forced the business to close for repairs.
"We've been successful for 10 years. These 10 weeks put a damper on our situation," co-owner Michael Chambliss said. "We appreciate customers' patience. We are excited about serving them again."
Chambliss said the July 24 fire did not cause structural damages to the building but totaled the interior, furniture and equipment at the restaurant at 13751 U.S. Highway 11 N. The fire is believed to have started in the pit area in the kitchen, Chambliss said. Tuscaloosa Fire Department officials said at the time that arson was not suspected.
Chambliss said the restaurant spent an estimated $150,000 to redecorate the 2,400-square foot facility built in 1993.
Some customers asked him why it has taken as long as two months to reopen, Chambliss said. He said that although the building appeared fine from the outside, it needed a lot of repairs.
"The interior was a total loss because of the heat and the smoke," Chambliss said. "Everything interior is brand new. We gutted the walls and everything. We made very little changes. Customers wouldn't notice anything different, except everything is brand new."
Chambliss said the restaurant will have the same menu and prices as before the fire, and all of the restaurant's employees have retained their jobs.

View Full Version : B-17?
Why can we not fly the B17.
Because noone has made a cockpit for it.
Next you'll be wanting machetes and leaf blowers that spray needles.
The B-17, B-24, B-29 and Lancaster made no contributions to the war and were produced in such small numbers that they are not worth modeling for full cockpit. It is far more important to have every possible model of the ME-109 and every variant of the 190, including the TA-152, which was produced in such large numbers that it nearly won the war.
If the B17 was in the game...what would you do with it?
Because the airplane did no good in WW2, and oleg hates america.
Now for the real answer. It is not just the pits that need to be modeled. It is every gun station as well and would take an incredible amount of resources to accomplish. No one, even third party, has done this that I know of. So many people want heavies to fly but none of the talent out there has done the internals fully. Oleg and team have been working on other things for quite some time now.
Went blind shopping last week and found Wayward Design/MicroProse's 'B-17 Flying Fortress: The Mighty Eighth' for a few €s. Olde(no great armadas) but sooo deeep, and still you can just stand aside watching AI do the work. With good audio that flak scares one off.
Give IL2FB some western 4-eng and see the forum blossom with myriad of inquiries and debates about handling them...Hang on... that's why forums exist,eh?
The time and resources it would take to implement a B17 would equal about 3 WW2 fighters.
Also, in the sizes of the maps we have, 2 engined MEdiums are quite sufficient. Its not like we are flying 1000 miles and dropping the bombs from 10,000m up.
So explain the B29 than?
I am not sure I understand your post. We have the B29 AND the B17 and NEITHER of them are flyable because of the time and effort it would take to implement the pits and gunner stations. Oleg and his team have been focusing on BoB for quite a while now and cannot even entertain the idea of doing this. Also keep in mind that 3rd party projects must be up to Olegs standards to be included.
Ever hear of the Memphis Belle? Ask any German, I'm sure they have.
* 1st B-29 bombing raid on Tokyo since Doolittle's B-25 raid in April 1942.
The U.S. Air Force employed the giant, four-engined Consolidated Aircraft B-24 bomber in every combat theater during World War II, from Europe to the Pacific Ocean to North Africa. Because of the B-24's great range""2,850 miles""it was particularly suited for long missions over the Pacific. Fully loaded, a B-24 could carry more than four tons of bombs.
Uh...I guess that you missed the fact that he was being sarcastic?
Cannot help but wonder who ppl rather die in a 4 engined bomber rather than in all other flyables we have now.
The main reason is ofcourse lack of resources BUT at least try to imagine a typical online coop with it.Flyin @6000m for like 15minutes then you meet some 109s and go down.
Flying against people that actually know how to fly German planes and taking off with less than 6:1 number advantage slightly alters things.
That should cover his misinformed post.
Earth to Monterey13! Do you read me? Hellllooooo? You can quit cutting and pasting from the internet now and read this.
Let me put this simply, for your benefit: If you don't have any American or British heavy bombers in the the game you are probably missing 33% to 50% of the air war in WW II, depending on who you ask. For the entire life of the this sim I've been unable to understand why we can every frickin fighter known to man and it's variants, and not one of the Allied heavy bombers. I would have paid the full price for the 1946 expansion to have just one of these bombers full cockpit and nothing else. I'm done with this topic now.
Personally, I think it would take quite a bit more than simply cockpit/gun station work. Level bombing in the game is very generic and it would take some work to make a fairly realistic Norden. There is also the very real issue of the IL2 engine simply not being able to handle a typical combat box of bombers without bringing all but the highest-end PCs to their knees. Flying a B-17 in small (less than 20 plane) formations would be suicide unless there were only 2-3 enemy fighters about.
If these issues could be resolved in SoW, (and the mass formation problem may very well be from the start for BoB) I think Oleg would be a fool not to include a B-17 at some point (or let a 3rd party handle it). There's just too much customer demand for the heavies to ignore them.
I recognized the sarcasm after the fact. My bad.
As a bomber pilot, I am just a little sore that we don't have more of them to choose from.
Sorry, i should have explained myslelf better..A B29 was virtually completed by a 3rd party (plane eater i think) and then just disappeared. i doubt you could still find the link to the pics. It was an absolute travisty that it was not included..
B29 - victim to Olegs whim.
But seriously, I'm surprised B-17 hasn't been made, when other bombers have. Looks like B-17 fans are all whine and no modeler.
But don't worry, it's still ok to demand things so long as you have $50 in your pocket.
besides all the other mumbo jumbo....there ARE those of us on this sim who DID (and still do) fly the B-17's online at 8-9 K.and were/are GOOD at hitting targets.
even when faced with the "odds" of experten 109/190 qeen killers, we still flew the slow lumbering climb up, and over to target. again and again. the challenge was great. the excitement was great. the memories are great.
fighter jocks now matter how "teamed orientated" are still SINGLE operators. http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/mockface.gif REAL teamwork comes with the heavy bombers and multistationed crew http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/metal.gifhttp://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/784.gif THATS TEAMWORK!
step off the highhorse ...and fly external, close formation heavy bombing at 10 k. suffering hich casualty rates...and still complete the mission. fending off the enemy, and wondering why our "friendlies" love to "remora" just under our bellies so that they wont get hit, as our turret gunner guys do the work. and you single cockpit junkies say "its boring" "no action"
becomes a truly heavy bomber.
B-29, B-32 and the "Grand Slam" mod for the Lancaster.
role as a long range maritime recon bomber!
a long range meduim bomber.

Swimming – Aces among world's best
THE performances of Tom Allen and Lucy Worrall at the British Swimming Olympic Trials have taken on greater significance.
The Swim Flintshire aces produced the swims of their lives at last month's Sheffield event to prove why they are two of the most outstanding prospects in the land.
But now they can also lay claim to being among the best young swimmers on the planet.
Buckley Swimming Club member Tom, 15 from Hope, is up to 96th in the world rankings for the 1,500m freestyle and fifth in the world for the year he was born.
Holywell Swimming Club member Lucy, 16 from Vicars Cross, is now ranked 128th in the world for the 200m freestyle and second in the world for the year she was born, 88th for the 400m freestyle and fourth for the year she was born, 70th for the 200m butterfly and sixth for the year she was born, and 70th for the 800m freestyle and 10th for the year she was born.
Lucy has also been named in the Great Britain squad for the World Youth Championships in Monterrey, Mexico in July and the European Junior Championships in Belgrade, Serbia, later that month.
Swim Flintshire head coach Stewart Clamp, an official at last month's World Short Course Championships in Manchester, will accompany Lucy to the Euros as part of the GB coaching team.

The British Empire is the largest (14.1 million square miles) and most populous (532 million people) empire in history.

Another testament to its power is the fact that one of its former colonies, the United States of America, is the current hyperpower.
