Here's How Hillary Clinton's Super PAC Plans to Spend Its $136 Million Advertising Budget
Hillary Clinton's super PAC is preparing to deploy millions of dollars on advertising to catapult the former secretary of state into the White House. Here's how it will break down.

Hillary Clinton's super PAC is preparing to deploy millions of dollars on advertising to catapult the former secretary of state into the White House. The PAC's game plan may also provide clues to how other committees plan on spending their money. Here's how it's going to break down.
Priorities USA Action, the political action committee that backed President Barack Obama's 2012 reelection bid and is now behind Clinton, has already laid down $136 million in ad reservations for this election cycle and will likely ad more. The group's messaging will focus on taking down presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump. With both candidates' negative polling numbers so high, this campaign is expected to feature a lot of negative advertising. The thinking is that it's easier to make more people hate your already-hated opponent than to get anyone who hates your candidate to turn.
According to Federal Election Commission filings, the super PAC has already raised more than $75 million since January 2015, with multi-million-dollar donations coming from figures like billionaire investors George Soros and James Simons and entertainment mogul Haim Saban and his wife, Cheryl. A New York Times comparison puts Priorities USA's fundraising above any other presidential super PAC this election cycle except Right to Rise, which backed Jeb Bush and brought in over $125 million. Groups backing Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio brought in over $60 million each.
The majority of Priorities USA's ad budget -- $96 million -- has been side aside for media advertising. Of that amount, $6 million has been deployed through June 8, the day after the California and New Jersey primaries. After that, $20 million is set to be spent ahead of the convention, and an additional $70 million after.
Rates for spots vary by market, station and programming, though in general, super PACs pay significantly more for ads than campaigns. Federal election law requires television station owners to offer campaigns their lowest rate for a given time slot; super PACs don't get the same treatment.
"The majority of our ads are going to be aimed at Donald Trump, though we will do a mixture of both positive Hillary ads and contrast ads about Trump," said Justin Barasky, communications director at Priorities USA Action. "Contrast" ads are industry jargon for negative ads.
He acknowledged that Priorities USA's exact spending plans and messaging are likely to morph heading toward Election Day, but the group has already figured out an initial line of attack: "exposing Donald Trump as a know-nothing conman who's too dangerous and divisive to be president," Barasky said.
Apparently they're taking a cue from the #DangerousDonald tagline.
The committee plans to focus its advertising in seven states: Ohio, Virginia, Florida, Nevada, Colorado, Iowa and New Hampshire. (It will wait to start in the latter three until after June 8.) As to why not target television viewers in other battleground states, like Pennsylvania, North Carolina or Wisconsin, Barasky replied: "[Because] the seven we're doing are even more swingier."
Beyond television, Priorities USA will also target voters via the radio, having reserved $5.3 million in ads. Ads will hit the airwaves in the above-mentioned seven states, minus Iowa and New Hampshire. The reason: the spots will largely be aimed at African Americans and Hispanics, groups the PAC considers "key components of Hillary Clinton's constituency," which don't make up significant portions of the population in either state. Ads will play on stations that target those demographics, which might benefit companies like iHeartMedia(IHRT) - Get Report and Cumulus Media(CMLS) - Get Report as well as smaller entities like Entercom Communications(ETM) - Get Report and Saga Communications(SGA) - Get Report .
The group recently enlisted Jeff Johnson, president of Baltimore-based JIJ Communications, to focus on its African American media strategy.
"We think it's important to have a broad, diverse group of consultants," said Barasky. "We want our advertising to reflect the country."
Most of Priorities USA's television and radio spend is geared toward independent voters and those still making up their minds about where to cast their vote. On the digital end, however, the plan is a little different: the group will target those who are probably already fine with idea of a President Hillary and work to make sure they go out and vote.
"If you've heard of the phrase 'preaching to the choir,' we're going to be doing a little of that," Barasky said.
The super PAC has made $35 million in digital advertising reservations set to run from June through November. It will concentrate efforts on four groups: African Americans, Hispanics, millennials and women.
The team believes getting these constituency groups out to vote will be essential for a Clinton victory. They also happen to be groups that aren't super tuned in to television.
"They are segments of the electorate that don't rely on TV to get their news as much as other folks do. In fact, about two-thirds of Hispanic voters rely on their smartphones more than they do their televisions; one in four millennial voters don't watch any TV at all. Any TV shows they watch are streaming, and they're doing it on an iPad, a lap top, a cell phone," said Barasky.
And that's where Priorities USA plans to be.
Social platforms Facebook (FB) - Get Report , Twitter(TWTR) - Get Report and Instagram will see some ad spend from the super PAC, but the bulk of its digital advertising dollars will go towards non-skippable pre-roll spots (ads that users cannot opt out of shown ahead of video content they wish to view). "That's the most valuable and effective type of digital advertising," Barasky said. Deep dive: 2016 is a make-or-break year for Twitter
A likely recipient of much of the digital ad spend on that front is Google parent company Alphabet (GOOGL) - Get Report , which owns video streaming site YouTube and enables brands to advertise across a vast network of platforms. Deep dive: The first $1 billion election
Facebook, which recently announced the expansion of its advertising platform to help marketers access third-party applications and websites, could grab a piece of the pie, too.
Of course, there's no guaranteeing Priorities USA's massive advertising budget will solidify Clinton the Oval Office, or that it will stop Trump. Others have tried and failed.
The anti-Trump movement, largely on the GOP side, spent over $75 million on nearly 64,000 television ads attacking Trump, according to data from ad tracking firm Kantar Media/CMAG reported by CNN. And that figure includes broadcast television alone -- not cable and satellite TV or digital. Moreover, many of the ads came from Priorities USA's Republican cousins: Conservative Solutions PAC, the super PAC backing Marco Rubio, and Right to Rise, the organization behind Jeb Bush.
The Priorities USA Action team thinks they'll have better luck.
"It's literally a different electorate," said Barasky. "Before, we were talking about just the Republican primary electorate. Now, obviously, you're adding in millions of Democrats and independents, so right away, it's a completely different makeup of people that you're appealing to. Furthermore, what the Republicans did was too little too late. If they'd started earlier, they very well may have been successful."
But the Clinton-backing super PAC is thankful for the GOP's anti-Trump efforts. Not only did they do some damage to the candidate, but they also cut out some of the dirty work. Deep dive: The Trump effect in 2018 and beyond
"Their ads were successful in making Donald Trump the least popular Republican nominee in modern history. So, what we did was we looked at what they ran, we tested a lot of it, focus grouped it. They saved us millions of dollars, and now we know what is the most effective against him, and that is to paint him as a divisive, dangerous conman who should never be president," Barasky said.

'Succession' star Justine Lupe says her character Willa was only supposed to be in 3 episodes of the HBO show
Claudia Willen
Justine Lupe plays Willa on season three of "Succession."HBO
Willa Ferreyra was initially written as a three-episode role in "Succession," Justine Lupe said.
She and Connor Roy were supposed to break up in season one, but the writers shifted gears.
"I was like, 'Wait, am I not going to get thrown out? This is awesome,'" Lupe told Insider.
When Justine Lupe joined the "Succession" cast ahead of season one, she only expected to play Willa Ferreyra for three episodes.
The writers on Jesse Armstrong's HBO series initially planned on having the character go separate ways from Connor Roy (Alan Ruck) on "Austerlitz," the seventh episode of season one.
"I was auditioning with the breakup between Connor and Willa that was supposed to be in Santa Fe," Lupe, 32, recently told Insider.

After the actress, previously known for her roles in "Mr. Mercedes" and "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel," landed the role, she noticed that the writers were still tweaking the script.
"There was one — the Santa Fe script in particular — where they kept on doing rewrites over and over, and Willa kept on sticking around just a little bit longer," Lupe recalled.
She added, "I was like, 'Wait, am I not going to get thrown out? This is awesome.'"
Though Willa does appear in "Austerlitz," the breakup never came. Instead of calling off her relationship with Connor, she agrees to stay in his Santa Fe compound with him in exchange for an allowance she can put toward her theater projects.

The escort-turned-playwright stands by Connor's side throughout seasons one and two of "Succession."
And, ahead of season three, Lupe was promoted to series regular, which makes sense considering she leaves the finale engaged to Connor and, subsequently, more involved with the Roys than ever.
She isn't in love with Connor when she accepts his proposal ("Fuck it. Come on. How bad can it be?" she says with a nervous giggle in the final episode), and she doesn't pretend to be.
But Lupe does think the character has formed a soft spot for the presidential hopeful over time.
"There's something about their dynamic that has become comfortable and also has evolved into something that's very, very strange and also sweet. She's grown to have a lot of affection for him," she said.

After Willa spends three seasons around the volatile Roy siblings — Kendall (Jeremy Strong), Roman (Kieran Culkin), and Shiv Roy (Sarah Snook) — and their partners, a marriage to Connor seems somewhat stable in comparison, Lupe reasoned.
"The relationships in this world are so completely toxic that there is a bit of a 'Fuck it. Why not?'" she said. "Our relationship actually might be one of the more healthy ones out of this bunch."
Read our full interview with Justine Lupe here.
Season three of "Succession" is currently available to stream on HBO Max.

The Department of Surgery is a strong network of faculty and learners, and traverses six fully-affiliated hospitals and an expanding number of community-affiliated hospitals. We have approximately 300 full-time faculty, 71 part-time faculty, 163 adjunct faculty and 40 research scientists. We are responsible for surgical teaching of all medical students throughout the four years of our undergraduate curriculum. We oversee eleven residency programs with a total enrolment of approximately 250 trainees. We have an extremely large fellowship program which sees approximately 200 fellows from 15 countries coming each year to learn with our surgeons.
We are a research-intensive University and research is our Department's main mission. We continue to do extremely well and thrive in the research realm averaging $60 M of external funding over the last five years. Our Surgeon Scientist Training Program (SSTP) is a unique element of our research enterprise. This program, which offers our residents the opportunity for graduate training to the masters or doctorate levels, has a yearly enrolment of between 40 and 50 residents. The range of scholarly work has been wide; including formal training in fundamental biology, clinical epidemiology, medical education, business administration and ethics.
On the educational side, the University of Toronto Surgical Skills Centre at Mount Sinai Hospital provides a laboratory setting where basic and complex surgical procedures can be learned and practised. The Centre's continued use by the University community underscores the increasing recognition of the value and need for technical skills training outside the clinical setting. In addition, it serves as a platform for skills related research. Finally we offer a myriad of CME programs and are now hosting over 300 events per year.
My vision for the Department of Surgery, stated quite simply, is to bring us to a stage where we are recognized continentally and internationally as world leader in surgery using the traditional metrics that are applied to such rankings including peer reviewed publications, grant capture, surgical expertise, education and innovation. To accomplish this task, we will need to focus our efforts on enhancing the curricula of our medical students, residents and fellows; we will continue to recruit and retain the best and brightest faculty; we will need to go forward with raising additional funds for new Chairs, initiatives and programs; and we will need to work diligently within and outside the Toronto Central LHIN to garner the strong international reputation that we so deserve. Finally, we have placed emphasis on global surgery and outreach, and numerous faculty development programs to broaden our Departmental mission.
I look forward to working together to achieve our goals.

Obituary of Peter Soumalias
Entrepreneur created a stage for Canadians to celebrate their own
A. Peter Soumalias
January 1, 1951—October 1, 2021
On October 1, 2021, Peter Soumalias, entrepreneur, visionary and co-founder of Canada's Walk of Fame, passed away peacefully surrounded by family in Toronto.
In the 1950s, Peter's family came to Canada from Greece. He quickly embraced this country as his own: he adopted Canadian culture, passionately followed our sports teams and worked relentlessly hard to make a difference. A trailblazer who cared deeply about making an impact, Peter developed those skills early while working at his family-run store in Kensington Market. Peter went on to own and operate several businesses, including the London Soap Factory and Canada Auto Parks.
In 1998, his entrepreneurial spirit combined with his love for Canada's culture led Peter to become a founding director of Canada's Walk Of Fame. By honouring the country's greatest achievers, he provided a stage to champion Canadian excellence—and to inspire future generations.
Peter always led with kindness. He believed in the potential of our beautiful country and our people. He believed in making dreams come true. More than anything, he believed in his family. He will be greatly missed by many but his lasting legacy—the spirit of patriotic celebration—will forever endure in stars embedded on the sidewalks of King Street in Toronto.
Peter is survived by his loving wife Giorgina; children Stefan (Stacey), Yiannis (Ashley), Marissa, Alexandra and Paul; grandchildren Cali, Mason and Andreas; siblings Tasia and Bill; and in-laws Phyllis and Vito (Sandra). He is predeceased by his parents, Yiannis and Soultana Soumalias; his father-in-law Secondo Bigioni; and his brother-in-law J.J Richards. The family wishes to extend a special thank you to Peter's personal caregiver, Louwie Ramos and his physician, Dr. Todd Walters.
A celebration of life will take place for friends and extended family at a later date.
If you wish to make a contribution in Peter's honour, please consider the Aphasia Institute.


For a small municipality, Dutton Dunwich is making a lot of news.
The rural community west of St. Thomas made headlines in October when its council voted against holding a recount of the mayor's race in the municipal election that was decided by one vote.
In the latest twist, Dutton Dunwich council voted unanimously Jan. 9 to eliminate the position of chief administrator held by Laurie Spence Bannerman.
Mayor Bob Purcell said Spence Bannerman was "well taken care of" but couldn't offer more specific details on her severance or the money the municipality will save by eliminating the post.
"Any transition costs are more than offset by the removal of this position from our organizational chart," Purcell said.
The decision to shed the chief administrator role is part of "an operational restructuring plan," he said in a news release.
Deputy clerk Heather Bouw will serve as clerk.
A chief administrator is the top bureaucrat of a municipality and leads its senior management team.
The municipality created the position in 2012 after clerk Ken Loveland retired.
Loveland was elected as Ward 2 councillor in the 2018 municipal election.
Purcell said Loveland's election to council had nothing to do with the elimination of Spence Bannerman's job.
Dutton Dunwich councillors voted to eliminate the post after a closed meeting at which a deputy clerk borrowed from Elgin County assisted council.
Purcell said he doesn't believe any prior notice was given to citizens.
Martin Horak, an expert in municipal governance at Western University, said some municipalities may function well without a chief administrator.
"When you have a really small organization with just a few people on the administration and a few people on council and they all know each other personally, you don't always need that kind of position," he said.
Horak said there could have been several different reasons Dutton Dunwich made the decision to cut the post, such as budget pressure, internal animosity or a decision the position wasn't worth the salary.
The fact that senior staff will report directly to council could be problematic if individual councillors hold private discussions with staff, Horak said.
The chief administrator acts as "buffer" between administrators and council, he said.

Proptech Startup Spacewalk Raises 8 Billion Won in Series A Funding
by KoreaTechToday Editor
PUBLISHED: January 20, 2020 UPDATED: January 22, 2020
in AI, South Korea, Spacewalk, Startup
Proptech startup Spacewalk announced that it raised 8 billion won ($6.85 million) in a recent Series A funding round.
Property technology (proptech) startup Spacewalk announced that it raised 8 billion won ($6.85 million) in a recent Series A funding round.
Property technology (proptech) startup Spacewalk announced that it raised 8 billion won ($6.85 million) in a recent Series A funding round participated by KB Investment and Stonebridge Ventures and other strategic investors. The latest capital injection added with the initial 2.2 billion won ($1.88 million) investment gives the company a 10.2 billion won ($8.73 million) boost.
The round led by KB Investment and Stonebridge Ventures were joined by early investors such as Crevis Partners and Terra Funding, and new investors such as Stick Ventures.
Spacewalk introduced and commercialized AI architecture design technology and launched the AI-based real estate solution Landbook in 2018. The service derives optimal development plans for small real estate, finding candidates for development projects, and review their feasibility.
This year, the company will develop Landbook as a software-as-a-service (SaaS), allowing more users to access advisory services in real-time. The land purchase advisory service will help select the best property through artificial intelligence.
Last year, Spacewalk signed a business agreement with NH Nonghyup Bank and Woori Bank's WM Department. The company also provided service to corporations such as RPM brokerage and Terra Funding.
Last year, the local proptech market grew significantly, and Spacewalk launched a new service and attracted a wide range of customers. The latest AI technologies, such as deep learning, also rapidly advanced the real estate solution.
The novelty and convenience of Landbook have attracted many people and companies, including five state-run house and land development firms, such as government-owned Seoul Housing & Communities Corp and Korea Land and Housing Corp.
Spacewalk plans to accelerate service expansion with the new capital injection. Cho Sung-hyeon, CEO of Spacewalk, said that in 90 percent of the land in Seoul with buildings are less than 200 pyeong (660 square meters) and are often difficult to develop without the help of industry experts. According to the CEO, the company will do its best to improve its services through AI to better help users.

Help Update Kage on the Background?
There's a whole bunch of stuff that has change about the 40k background since I... err... went in another direction. I had always approached the setting from an RPG angle and, then, BL/FFG produced the 40k RPG and it took a very different approach and, well, that's cool enough.
Now I'm buying minis to do something creative with my son (collecting, painting, 3d scanning, 3d sculpting/modding), but it's not a part of me to ignore the background.
My first passion has always been the Eldar so, if you would, catch me up from WD127 (my gold start standard). Connect the dots to the "Triumvirate of Ynnead" and anything else.
In advance, thanks!

Your best bet for anything updated is the Craftworlds codex, as that'll be anything post Gathering Storm, which is where we are now. There are also novels, and psychic awakening, but that didn't really have a huge impact for the Aeldari, mostly just some revelations to do with the Ynnari's goal to collect all 5 of the Crone Swords. 4/5 of which they already have.
You could also read the Gathering Storm, It's on Warhammer+'s Vault, so you could just pay for the one month and read all the books.

White Dwarf 127 introduced the first Eldar army craftworld army list and the background for craftworld Eldar and it remains the go to source for Eldar background and lore.
Much of what is written there still applies. The new additions do not significantly contradict the original background, rather they act as expansions or additional material. The only major change, in my opinion, is the renaming and repackaging of the Eldar race.

Here's the short answer:
The Eldar discovered they had a few extra letters in their name and are now called Aeldari.
The Dark Eldar couldn't let that kind of EXTRA pass without answer, so now they're the Drukhari.
The Eldar started a cult to their death god who helps them die and also not die. Their cult leaders helped Roboute Guilliman not-die and now he's running the Imperium, basically. He and some big-time Techpriest on Mars introduced the Astartes to steroids and now it's a whole thing. They re-re-re-discovered antigravity drive, too, so that's fun.
Oh, and they ret-conned the 13th Black Crusade so that Cadia fell (and exploded) and half the galaxy blew up and now everything is GRIMMER and DARKER than before.
In other news, I guess Magnus nuked the Space Wolves' homeworld in the largest and most overwrought game of Backsies ever played. The Necrons found some extra legs they weren't using and got creative. The Orks remembered how fun it was to saddle-up boars back in the old days and found some squigs to ride. Everyone has kinda collectively forgotten that the Tyranids and Tau exist, and the Guard is doing the same thing it's always done.
There you go--you're basically caught up.

Biel-Tan is also destroyed as a craftworld. Her people have survived, many of them joining the Ynnari, Cult of Ynnead, and more perished during the demonic invasion of Biel-Tan. Not sure what the remaining survivors are up to.

In some respects yes, a lot more warmp storms, massive tear in space cutting off a number of SM home worlds, but the imperium has changed a lot, they have basically become Eldar with Crawl copying Eldar tech and tactics. New better marines, better wargear, new better tanks, the are getting the Primarchs back, etc Ultramarines and Ynnari are best buds. Ynnari is one sword away from killing slaanesh. GW rushed Ynnari into to the picture and basically set fire to CWE lore. Nerons got their silent king back. Eldar and Necrons are talking again, oh and Nerons no longer want to kill every thing and they have much more personality. I would say the universe suffered one big loss but is on a much more positive outlook.

As for lore of the Triumvirate (kind of a weird name for the unit, imho), it's basically the three central figures of the Ynnari movement/faction.
Yvrain is the most central one. She's basically been every type of Eldar, from Craftworlder to Corsair and to Dark Eldar, but she got some kind of revelation and escaped from Commorragh with the Visarch, who was also a former Craftworlder gone Dark Eldar.
They were looking for a way to awaken Ynnead without killing their entire race, and managed it by sacrificing most of the souls in the Biel-Tan infinity circuit, and creating the Yncarne, which is the Avatar of Ynnead, basically like the Avatar of Khaine. Sorta.
Now they're gathering member of all the Eldar subgroups together and looking to gather cronw swords to take the fight to Slaanesh.
Also Yvraine woke up Roboute Guilliman, as noted above, healed Rubric marines, and has a cat.

Okay. Good information. It's going to take me a little bit to get there because it will primarily be motivated by my son and, well, we're not quite there yet. I'm going to steer clear of the BL novels, though. They're not my cup of tea.

The renaming has been mentioned in the thread, but would you be so kind as to clarify what you mean by "repackaging"?
The Eldar started a cult to their death god who helps them die and also not die.
I don't think that this is new? The whole shebang about Ynnead is not new to me even though I parted ways in--what?--the late 0's or early 10's.
Links to the Harlequins, the Eternal Matrix (did I remember the term right?), talk of "avatars of Ynnead", and relations to the Laughing God etc.?
Their cult leaders helped Roboute Guilliman not-die and now he's running the Imperium, basically. He and some big-time Techpriest on Mars introduced the Astartes to steroids and now it's a whole thing. They re-re-re-discovered antigravity drive, too, so that's fun.
So, basically:
I gotta know. Steroids!?
Imperial grav tanks to buff them even more, or something more interesting?
I have absolutely no problem with Cadia, but "half the galaxy blew up"!?
I will catch up for the fun of it, so once again thanks. Do you have kind of "Bluffer's Guide" to the updated background from, say, 2008? Sort of a "Covers the main stuff" with perhaps an optional, "And if you really want to" list?
I know it might be a lot to ask, but you can only say no. (Errr, I hope that's the only thing that you can do!)

Repackaging refers to the reconceptualisation of the Eldar race through the new names. It's all part of how GW marketing altered the brand, so to speak. It's nothing major, but it appears to be more of a significant change than it actually is for those of us who played the game long before Aeldari were even a thing . This is all I meant by repackaging.
Quote from: Kage2020 on September 30, 2021, 11:14:35 PM
The "marines on steroids" comment refers to a new "innovation" by said AdMech Archmagos to make the Astartes even BIGGER and MORE MARINE-Y. They are called Primaris Marines and they're my single least favorite piece of background to come out in the last few years.
Essentially, a new batch of marines who are taller and tougher and everything-er better than the old marines to help fight off new threats. They are called "Primaris" marines. Furthermore, they figured out how to let the old-school guys cross "the Rubicon Primaris" to become every bit as swole as their new junior members.
This is, of course, a pretty naked attempt at transitioning the old marine models into new ones and the backstory of it all is just a half-assed justification for it. I would have had zero problem with them just updating the whole model range to a larger scale, but instead we have an insanely bloated codex with twice as many units as is necessary or feasible to balance. The half-assed fluff explanation (what if marines were NINE feet tall? Eh? Ehhhh?) is just salt in the wound.
Yeah, and GW just wanted to model grav tanks for the Astartes, because they look cool and sell better, and just said "and, anyway, they rediscover this stuff." That part doesn't bother me, exactly, but the fact that said Grav Tanks cannot accommodate their smaller brethren does bother me, since it makes no damned sense. There's a sign next to the Primaris vehicles, I guess, that says "You must be THIS tall to ride."

Aaaah. One of the sets that I bought for my son to look at/appreciate were "Primaris Aggressors," so that explains what they are.
I thought "gravitic" technology was one of the things that made Eldar (at least initially) unique?
What are making the armies distinct in terms of play style and background now? As an outsider coming back, it just seems that GW is dogpiling all the cool stuff onto Marines and the Imperium?
I'm hoping that this is an incorrect assumption?
No, Ynnead itself is pretty old school (hell, you might've been one of the people who told me about it for the first time), but them actually DOING something about it and driving the setting forward is obviously new.
Quote from: Kage2020
Basically, cracking open Cadia ("The planet broke before the Guard did" became a kind of fandom mantra for a while. Good stuff.), destroyed the Necron pylon network around the Eye of Terror, and it sent a rip across the entire galactic disk, joining up with smaller warp storm like the Maelstrom and some others.
Everything on the far side of this "Great Rift" became known as the Imperium Nihilus, because the light of the Astronomican is hugely dimmed there, so many of the Imperial worlds fell into disarray or were picked off by Chaos forces or aliens.
[spoiler] [/spoiler]
Well, he used to be an Exarch, and then an Incubus, so I guess that's pretty Khaine-y, but no, not explicitly so. His blurb mentions that his armor is from some pre-Fall style, so make of that what you will.
I think Yvraine went to the Black Library and helped the Harlequins to resist a Chaos invasion, and then got some help with her quest, I don't quite remember.
Yes "crone", I just typed this stuff too late for good spelling, lol.
I don't know the exact IRL publication chronology, but I'm fairly certain that anti-gravity was mentioned in sources discussing the Dark Age of Technology even way back. Possibly the Great Crusade too.
At some point, when the Horus Heresy novels starting being churned out in serious numbers, I think we got examples of Imperial antigrav vehicles being used there (I stopped reading after book five, so I'm a poor source).
Then, Forgeworld started releasing Horus Heresy models, and we got a 30k spin-off game, and there several factions have antigrav vehicles (possibly as per the novels.) One example being the playable Custodes, for instance.
Then, the Custodes got an army in 40k, and we got an update AdMech army (which is really cool, actually, you might want to check it out). I'm fuzzy on the exact publication order, but I'm pretty sure both of these have antigrav vehicles even in the 41st millennium. This sorta makes sense given their elite and technical themes, respectively.
In there at some point is the release of the Primaris marines, and them getting antigrav vehicles, with it being "rediscovered" in the sense that the Imperium now know how to reproduce them and innovate on the designs, as opposed to just keeping 10,000 year old vehicles alive or whatever the Admech did previously.
That's about as far as I know.
If this makes the Eldar less unique I couldn't tell. I'd imagine they're still faster and squishier than Marines though, even if marines are... just kinda everything.
« Last Edit: October 1, 2021, 08:10:15 PM by Sir_Godspeed »
In terms of playstyles, the Marines haven't gotten hugely *faster,* they can just fly over stuff. The movement on their vehicles is decent, but nothing compared to most Eldar stuff.
But yes, the new Primaris Marines are certainly knocking the Eldar out of the "super elite" category they operated for years. They have specialist teams that put all the Eldar Aspects to shame, for the most part.
Quote from: Sir_Godspeed on October 1, 2021, 07:55:32 PM
...but them actually DOING something about it and driving the setting forward is obviously new.
That's true. I remember people such as myself always wanting the setting to move forward and yet fearful of what GW would actually do if they went through with it. As I'm learning more (thank you, everyone) it seems very much a "sweets with the sorrow situation." But--hey!--there are some sweets!
Everything on the far side of this "Great Rift" became known as the Imperium Nihilus, because the light of the Astronomican is hugely dimmed there...
So, in essence, the Eastern "Fringe" just got a whole lot bigger and, ha, badder?
Catching up with some of the background materials on that Warhammer+ so while I'm sure that I'll get there eventually, having the preview is a real help.
I may have to refer to Yvraine as (a) "Mary Sue" by the sounds of it. (Then again, I was never a huge fan of where they took the Eldar Path so... Yeah.)
Sorry for the misunderstanding. I have the same recollection that humans in the G/DAoT had access to it, but it was still lost knowledge. This functionally meant that, as the Eldar had it, it was one of the distinctions that led to the whole "fast attack" thing. (This was true from the days of WD127. So much fun with D-cannons on anti-grav platforms, the Doom power etc. The enemy squats collapsed so deliciously quickly! )
Whyddr might have covered this, however, by stating that the Eldar still maintain the advantage in this regard. As I have not actually played the wargame since very shortly after the publication of WD 127, I'm obviously behind the times.
I stopped reading after book five, so I'm a poor source).
Fully understand. I actually purchased an Ynnari/Gav Thorpe novel today because it was: (1) available for Kindle now (smart move, GW); and (2) I remember enjoying some of Gav Thorpe's novels before, even though others lambasted him.
*crosses fingers*
Edit: Nope, it's as bad as I remember.
One example being the playable Custodes, for instance.
This seems to fit with the "Custodians get the best gear" mindset. (If only GW could get over this notion that the bigger a model is the more powerful it is.)
...and we got an update AdMech army (which is really cool, actually, you might want to check it out).
I'll take that recommendation. A brief Google and read suggests that they contain a lot of cool minis and, if I ever did get to play, I would just have to ignore the background as much as possible.
According to the limited reading I've done, that seems to gel. Thank you.
Quote from: Wyddr on October 1, 2021, 09:10:26 PM
That seems... disappointing. I guess I had always hoped that the technology thing would given them an edge, but GW seems very keen on keeping the structure of armies much the same.
Well, good for them. It's got them through all these editions!
« Last Edit: October 2, 2021, 05:47:51 PM by Kage2020 »
Yeah, their Marinephilia is as strong as ever, perhaps even moreso now that 40k has gotten some sorta-mainstream attention.
Yeah, I saw the toys.
Seriously, though, I just wanted to thank you guys 'n' gals for all that you have done to help me get back into things. I'm reading and getting wise and, to be honest, realising that I should just ignore the background and just think about the rules/mini side of things.
I'm still trying to find an artist to do some character T-poses so that I can practice my 3d modeling, but other than that...? Thanks.

1920-1922 The Black and the Red
2015 SOLD for $ 38M including premium
In 1915 the Suprematism of Kazimir Malevich shakes forever the theories of art. To be pure, art should excite feelings without referring to a message. It is neither figurative nor religious nor political.
Malevich developed a new grammar reduced to three basic filled shapes, simple enough to escape a semiotic interpretation : rectangle, oval and cross. The perfect rectangle and oval are the square and the circle.
The black square on white is the seminal flagship and the masterpiece of Suprematism. Centered on a canvas where it fills most of the available surface, the square becomes a flying artefact independently from its supporting fabric and generates a mesmerizing feeling. Faced with such a spatial illusion, we are tempted to reduce the famous white square on white from 1918 down to no more than an additional experiment.
In the early phase, other works by Malevich still make concessions to competing movements. His cohorts of stripes more or less parallel in various colors seek to express the movement as in the Futurism in an assembly which appears hand made as in the Synthetic Cubism or in the Constructivism.
On November 5 in New York, Sotheby's sells Mystic Suprematism, oil on canvas 100 x 59 cm painted between 1920 and 1922, lot 8 estimated $ 35M.
A black cross is flying in front of a deep red oval. The pole of the cross and the oval are coaxial. The pole is a quadrangle that slightly tapers downward, bringing an effect of forward tilting. The additional small black line that runs across the lower part of the pole is used for balancing, allowing the viewer to decide if that indefinable abstract object is or not about to fall.
Suprematism is already announcing the major trends of abstract art of the second half of its century, which will use the expressive role of the colors. It is unfortunate that Malevich did not experience the importance of large size. To go further than Suprematism, wait for Rothko.

1920 The Two Pictures of Olga
2017 SOLD for $ 30.5M including premium
Times are hard. Pablo Picasso had provided a formidable boost to modern art with the Demoiselles and then with the analytical Cubism using or imitating collages. Competitors follow with enthusiasm but customers are rare for this art that is too intellectual, especially in that period of war. A return to classicism becomes vital but Picasso can not get rid of his avant-garde ambition.
Around 1916 he attempts a new approach by simplifying the geometric shapes and by reducing the number of elements. The readability remains difficult except perhaps in the still life. To convince his audience Picasso indeed needs to convince himself.
He realizes two portraits of Olga in the same format, based on the same photograph. One of them is realistic in the style of Ingres, the other is Cubist. The artist wants to demonstrate that the impression offered to the viewer by a work of art does not depend on the style.
Zervos considers that both paintings were started simultaneously in 1917. The Ingresque portrait is finished early. The Cubist portrait is continually reworked until 1920. The result is as luminous as a stained glass window with its solid colors enclosed in outlines of white stripes bordered by a black line. The woman maintains an identical attitude on both images.
The use of the Cubist portrait like a piece of laboratory for the development of a new style is at no doubt. Picasso kept this work throughout his life, certainly not in memory of Olga but as a demonstrator of the evolution of his art in that difficult period of his career.
The Cubist portrait, oil on canvas 130 x 89 cm, is estimated $ 20M by Christie's in New York on May 15, lot 7 A offered along with seven other major artworks for the benefit of the Cleveland Clinic Heart and Vascular Institute. Please watch the video in which Christie's introduces the whole set.
<1920 Yves Saint-Laurent in an Armchair ... made by Eileen Gray
2009 SOLD 21.9 M€ including premium
In the very large sale of the collection of the fashion designer Yves Saint-Laurent, the furniture of the 20th century will be led by an armchair made by Eileen Gray.
It is a seat only 61 cm high. The sitting height is normal, but the back is small. It is large (91 cm), making it a comfortable chair. The press release from Christie's describes it as a Dragon armchair, certainly for the sculptures of its armrests. For this seat dating from about 1920-1922, prepare 2.5 million €.
In the work of Eileen Gray, other seats have generated one of the most remarkable results of auctions in recent years. On June 1, 2005 in Paris, Camard sold a set of six armchairs à la Sirène, for a total of nearly 9 million € charges included. Sold separately, these six lots were eventually divided between two buyers. They had belonged to Damia, the music hall singer woman with whom Eileen had a love affair. From a very different model from the chair of the Saint-Laurent collection, their sculpture of the women fish was enhanced by an open back.
Eileen Gray was renowned for the luxurious finish of her lacquered furniture.
The sale will be held at the Grand Palais in Paris from 23 to 25 February. It is jointly organized by Christie's and Pierre Bergé et Associés.
POST SALE COMMENT
This seat had it all. We imagine it perfectly in the middle of the living room of Yves Saint-Laurent, a famous person. It may equally be regarded as a work of art or as a piece of furniture.
Christie's has presented it as one of the top lots in the sale, from the first press release last September. The estimate probably took into account the results obtained at Drouot on the armchairs à la Sirène, remembered in my article above. Cautiously, the estimate had been made a little lower (2 M €) in the catalog than in the first releases.
As I have already written, the current crisis of confidence affects the sellers, not the buyers.
The chair of Yves Saint-Laurent by Eileen Gray was sold € 21.9 million including premium.

1920 Merz or the Anti-Dada
2014 SOLD 14 M£ including premium
The art of Kurt Schwitters is a direct consequence of the horrors of war. Along with Arp, he understands that the world has changed and that only a completely new vision may accompany the necessary rebirth.
Technically, Schwitters is very close to the Dada movement in which he had friends. In that defeated Germany promised to decadence, he built his art with torn newspapers and other trash. However, he opted for a positive message that is the opposite of the Dada destruction. Unsurprisingly, Schwitters was later persecuted by the Nazis chasing the decadent art.
His creed is summed up in a few cleverly chosen statements.
Pioneer of installations nearly half a century ahead of his time, he introduces himself to his colleagues as a painter who nails his pictures together.
He promotes his Merz revolution, a word that appeared perhaps by chance in one of his works after he tore a paper of the Kommerz und Privatbank. Merz is in only four letters a remarkable anticapitalist and anti-industrial motto.
On June 24 in London, Christie's sells a 1920 Merzbild in large size, 109 x 80 cm including the artist's frame. Positively titled Ja Was? Bild, it anticipates the paintings-poems by Miro. The reverse side covered by newspaper fragments must be considered as a full part of the Bild.
Ja Was? Bild is estimated £ 4M. I invite you to play the video shared by Christie's.
This artwork is altogether extremely rare and historically important. It was sold for £ 14M including premium.
1918-1924 Le Pont Japonais by Monet
2014 SOLD 15.8 M$ including premium
The series of the Nymphéas was acclaimed by the connoisseurs and Claude Monet was already famous. In 1918, aged 78, he innovates once more by relying once again on the theme of the Japanese bridge.
He did not need an addendum to his glory, and this somehow secretive last series was used to satisfy his desire to create. These oils on canvas made up to 1924 cannot be dated with accuracy.
The curved bridge over the water lilies is an idea of the artist, inspired by Japanese prints and realized during the development of the pond. Monet enjoyed to be photographed at this place of his garden and made an interesting series of Impressionist paintings in 1899.
The art of Monet is a continuous learning of artistic creation that spans over half a century. In this last series of the Japanese Bridges, we find the subtle variations of light from a work to another, from flaming to night. There are also the loss of the horizon, as in the Nymphéas, or the sketch of a fading bridge like Waterloo's in London.
However, this series is not a synthesis but a new revolution, once again too ahead of its time to be understood by his contemporaries. The figurative line disappears almost completely in favor of the exploding colors.
The technique also is new. The material is thick, worked by the addition of new layers on still wet surfaces. The result of this sublime magma is an environment in which the viewer can be wrapped.
It is often said that Monet is a precursor of abstract art. This series is the major support of this theory. These last Japanese bridges by Monet anticipate Rothko by three decades with a practice of progressive mixing of colors that is close to what Richter will do much later.
A Japanese Bridge from this series, 90 x 116 cm, is estimated $ 12M, for sale by Sotheby's in New York on May 7. Seen from afar, this work is a nice figurative sketch. Seen at any distance, it is a very good demonstration of the essential role of color in the expressionist art of the twentieth century.
The result, $ 15.8M including premium, confirms the importance of this later series by Monet.

1920 George Bellows in the Crowd
2012 SOLD 7 M$ including premium
George "Geo" Bellows is passionate about his country, America. The favorite theme of his art is the crowd, of which he captures the movement. Being himself an athlete, he is interested in sports, and of course in the crowds of the spectators.
On December 1, 1999, Sotheby's sold Polo Crowd, oil on canvas 115 x 161 cm, painted in 1910. Sold $ 27.5 million including premium, this lot then got the record for an American painting at auction. The buyer, Bill Gates, was identified after the sale.
On May 17 in New York, Sotheby's sells a tennis scene painted in 1920. This oil on canvas, 109 x 135 cm, is estimated $ 5M.
On vacation the previous year in Newport RI, the artist had attended a tournament won by Bill Tilden of which he wanted to recreate the atmosphere. The game of tennis is underway, and the crowd is dense around the players. The style is typical of this artist: almost impressionistic in the clothing of the crowd, realistic up to the border of naivety in the anecdotal part of the scene.
This dynamic and colorful work is a very interesting account of the atmosphere of the early Roaring Twenties.
Deserved result for this interesting painting by George Bellows: $ 7M including premium.

1920-1921 Beaux Arts by Jupeon
2016 SOLD for HK$ 47M including premium
Son of an artist, Xu Beihong is fascinated since childhood by traditional Chinese graphic arts. He learns French in Shanghai and arrives in Paris in 1919 to study at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux Arts. He is 24 years old.
In Paris, Xu is one of the first Asian artists and perhaps even the first Chinese artist to practice oil painting. He temporarily abandons the figurative Chinese themes to bring his personal vision of the ancient European painting. At that time his name is spelled Jupeon.
Xu rightly observed that Western mythology provides an excuse to show the nude in erotic positions. On April 3 in Hong Kong, Sotheby's sells a Sleeping Venus, oil on canvas 62 x 95 cm painted in Paris in 1920-1921 and signed in Chinese, lot 1034 estimated HK $ 40M.
The naked woman is lying on the grass in a lascivious attitude reminiscent of female positions by Courbet. The mythological inspiration for this ideal woman is confirmed by two little satyrs emerging away from a grove.
The mythological scenes painted by Xu in his Parisian period are extremely rare on the art market. A slave and lion of large size 123 x 153 cm painted in 1924 was sold for HK $ 54M including premium by Christie's on 26 November 2006. This work anticipates the highly original specialization of the artist after his return to China, using animals for the expression of fiery sentiments.
The female nudes by Xu are also very rare and eagerly sought. In June 2010 in Beijing, a small auction house sold for the equivalent of US $ 11.2M the standing nude of a young woman thought to be Jiang Biwei who was Xu's wife in the 1920s. In September 2011, an artist recognized convincingly in this portrait a model who posed in the nude in a classroom in the 1980s.
1920 The Jersey of the Babe
2012 SOLD 4.4 M$ including premium
I often discuss baseball in this group, because it is the most active sport on the auction market. With Babe Ruth, baseball has hosted one of the most outstanding athletes of sports history in all categories.
The sale by SCP Auctions on May 19, online from California, of a wool jersey of the Babe is indeed a considerable event. Two weeks before the auction ends, this lot has already surpassed Lou Gehrig's jersey sold for $ 717K including premium by Heritage on November 5, 2010.
Moreover this jersey dates from an exceptional period in Ruth's career and is in very good condition. It is marked NEW YORK, which makes sense for this sportsman. However, Ruth had made the success of the Boston Red Sox before being transferred in 1920 to the New York Yankees.
The jersey has retained its original identification with the name of Ruth. A photo of the champion made in March 1920 shows him with a jersey identical as the example to be sold, confirming, if not the year, at least the period when the garment was made by Spalding and worn by Ruth.
Here is the link to the press release shared by AuctionReport.
The prices of the rarest pieces have no predictable limit. Babe Ruth's jersey was sold $ 3.7 million before fees, 4.4 million including premium.
The memorabilia from Babe Ruth provided two other notable results: $ 590K including premium for a bat and $ 540K including premium for a cap.
This sale was also very successful for baseball cards from the 1950s in mint condition (PSA10): $ 430K including premium for Roberto Clemente, and $ 360K including premium for Hank Aaron.
For post WWII baseball, let us also mention a jersey worn by Mickey Mantle in 1968, sold $ 370K including premium.

1920 Rythmische Baumlandschaft by Klee
2020 SOLD for $ 4M including premium by Christie's
1920 Three Paintings by Grigoriev escape from Museum
PRE SALE DISCUSSION
At a time when the prices of Russian paintings are dramatically increasing, it seemed appropriate to a museum in Massachusetts to get rid of three of them to refocus collections to works closer to its usual specialties. The museum had these works for 60 years following a gift from the founder's relatives.
The sale will take place at Sotheby's in New York on November 4. These three paintings by Boris Grigoriev are estimated $ 4 million, $ 2.5 million and $ 600 K.
The most important of the three represent two pipe players (musicians), the traits marked in the so recognizable style that Grigoriev gives to faces. This very lively painting is undoubtedly an important work of the artist. It is part of the cycle Faces of the world (1920-1931), and a very large painting, 221x151 cm, an unusual format for this artist.
The second, "shepherd of the hills", dated 1920, is a close portrait of poet Nikolai Klyuev, followed by two surprising and insistent sheep. It is a beautiful expressive work.
The third is the portrait of an old pipe smoker (not a musician !!!).
We are in the case, which we have already described on several examples this year, when Sotheby's, sure to hold major works of an artist, pushes them at prices higher than those previously registered with a probability of success that is near certainty.
Attention, the press release is dated June 20. Experience shows that sales announced too early may have a change of date.
In the pantheon of Russian artists at auction, Grigoriev shall then join his almost exact contemporary Alexander Yakovlev, whose portrait of a sitting man was sold £ 2.8 million including costs by Christie's in London on June 13, 2007.
The success was present, as it was predicted when the press release was submitted.
The portrait of the shepherd was not considered as the most expensive, but it has the best price: $ 3.7 million including expenses. I had described it as "beautiful expressive work." The market confirms my view that it was the most important of the three, from an artistic point of view. I had not its size when I made the article: 97 x 84 cm.
The large painting with musicians was sold $ 3.2 million including expenses, and the old smoker, 65 x 54 cm, $ 1.1 million including expenses.
1920 Le Boxeur by Henri Laurens
2020 SOLD for £ 2.06M including premium by Sotheby's
1920 The Sovereigns of the British Empire
2012 SOLD 780 K£ including premium
In 1816, in an act of normalization, the gold coin worth one pound sterling became known as the sovereign. Its characteristics have not changed since that time: 7.988 g, 22 mm diameter, 1.5 mm thick.
The British Empire extended over all regions of the world. It was logical that Australia, a major producer of gold, minted also these coins as soon as security enabled it. Coins made in Sydney, identified by the letter S, were issued from 1855 to 1926, for a total of 115 variants when separating the years.
For many decades, American collectors have built complete thematic series of their currencies composed of the best possible specimens. In other countries, this approach is still unfrequent. The sale by Baldwin's in three parts of the Bentley collection of British sovereigns shall be used as a reference.
The first sale, on 8 May 2012, included all variants made in London, with the exception of the 1819 sovereign which will be the top lot of the third sale in May 2013.
The second sale, on September 27 in London, is devoted to colonial issues.
The 1920-S sovereign is an exceptional piece. The extreme rarity of this variant is not correlated with the statistics of the plant, but it is likely that almost all coins minted in Sydney in 1920 remained mintmarked from the previous year.
This coin was purchased for Aus $ 580K including premium by its current owner in 2006 in an auction organized by KJC Coins. It is now estimated £ 300K. Both sides are shown on the article shared by Blouin Artinfo.
The result is both excellent and very satisfying, because usually the high end of the modern coin market is dominated by U.S. dollars. The Australian sovereign was sold £ 780K, according to a tweet of the auction house.
The £ 780K figure includes the fees.
LATER INFORMATION
It has been found in 2014 that the few 1920-S sovereigns struck in 1920 were made on a special order for an NSW politician celebrating his gold wedding anniversary. The sovereign was expensive at that time in terms of gold content and no 1920 sovereign had been required by the officials to the Sydney mint. A 1920-S sovereign novodel made in 1926 after cleaning the reverse die is also known. This story is narrated by Sterling & Currency.

Q: Making Infragistics UltraWinGrid's Specific Columns Read-only I am stuck in a situation where I need to disable a few columns in each row, except for the newly added row.
That is, I have 10 columns in the grid and the first 3 columns are databound and come from the database as disabled or read-only. The rest are editable.
If I add a new row, then all the columns of the new row must be enabled until it is saved.
I don't have any DataKey or primary key for my existing row or the new row. I have to check for some boolean value like IsNewRow.
In my current scenario I am using this code block:
Private Sub dgTimeSheet_InitializeRow(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.InitializeRowEventArgs) Handles dgTimeSheet.InitializeRow

    ''if either column key is Project, Class or Milestone

    '' Activation.NoEdit = Disable and Activation.AllowEdit = Enable

    Dim index As Integer = e.Row.Index

     If e.Row.IsAddRow Then

        dgTimeSheet.Rows(index).Cells(PROJECT).Activation = Activation.AllowEdit

        dgTimeSheet.Rows(index).Cells(SERVICE_ISSUE_CLASS).Activation = Activation.AllowEdit

        dgTimeSheet.Rows(index).Cells(MILESTONE).Activation = Activation.AllowEdit

     Else

        dgTimeSheet.Rows(index).Cells(PROJECT).Activation = Activation.NoEdit

        dgTimeSheet.Rows(index).Cells(SERVICE_ISSUE_CLASS).Activation = Activation.NoEdit

        dgTimeSheet.Rows(index).Cells(MILESTONE).Activation = Activation.NoEdit

    End If

    CheckRows()

End Sub

The problem is that if I click on disabled/read-only rows, then newly added rows also get disabled, which I don't want.

A: I am fighting with a similar problem in C#, so this is fishing in the dark...   Is it possible, in your case, to add an IgnoreRowColActivation = true statement to keep the rows from reverting?

A: This examples create read only columns for the interface a customer uses
Example for a row with three columns. Set two columns as readonly and the third as editable to the user.
the three columns defined in the designer:
    System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewTextBoxColumn dataGridViewTextBoxColumn1;
    System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewTextBoxColumn dataGridViewTextBoxColumn2;
    System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewTextBoxColumn dataGridViewTextBoxColumn3;
set column 1 & 2 directly
this.dataGridViewTextBoxColumn1.ReadOnly = true
this.dataGridViewTextBoxColumn2.ReadOnly = true

You can still update all columns in the source code. The customer will only be able to edit the third column.

Radha Mitchell, Sean Bean, Laurie Holden, Deborah Kara Unger, Kim Coates, Tanya Allen, Jodelle Ferland
Rated R for strong horror violence and gore, disturbing images, and some language
The eerie and deserted ghost town of Silent Hill draws a young mother desperate to find a cure for her only child's illness. Unable to accept the doctor's diagnosis that her daughter should be permanently institutionalized for psychiatric care, Rose (Radha Mitchell) flees with her child, heading for the abandoned town in search of answers -- and ignoring the protests of her husband (Sean Bean). It's soon clear this place is unlike anywhere she's ever... Full synopsis »
I rarely use swear words in my reviews for the sake of a family entertainment, but every once in a while a movie comes along that warrants such sinful words. "Silent Hill," a video game-adapted horror movie, easily fits into the genuinely fucked-up genre. Whether you love it or hate it, you'll have to admit that not only is its atmosphere consistently creepy from beginning to end, but that it is one fucked-up movie in premise and conclusion. Full movie review »


British company Accent media Limited, has won the right to operate a new internet domain dedicated to the sale of tickets following an extensive bidding process and a private auction involving four other bidders. The company will offer domain names to approved organisations to provide safer online ticket sales with the intention to establish the ".tickets" top-level domain as a global gold standard of trust for consumers.
Led by ticketing veteran Steve Machin, the independent company is supported by some of the biggest stakeholders in the industry. Its plan is to use the new ".tickets" domain to help consumers buy tickets more safely and securely.
As the ticket sector continues to evolve rapidly to keep up with a more connected generation of customers, so too do the opportunities and challenges facing fans and rights-holders. The company will work with the leaders in entertainment, travel, and sport sectors to develop structural and innovative solutions and services.
"The new ".tickets" TLD will bring together experts from across the ticketing and domain name industry to empower fans and event organisers alike to build a dynamic platform for innovation and across the industry" commented Accent Media founder and CEO Gary Fisher.

Total Aircraft: 290
Active Aircraft Inventory (2020)
ON-ORDER
The Polish Air Force is a mix of local- and foreign-born aircraft types with its centerpiece currently being the American F-16 Fighting Falcon.
POWER INDEX SCORE
(Ranked 35 of 53)
*See Notes
The Polish Air Force fleet moves ever-closer to fielding an aging fleet of aircraft with only a few areas being addressed in the short-term. The fighter fleet consists of a mix of West and East in which the headliner is the American Lockheed (General Dynamics) F-16 'Fighting Falcon' lightweight multirole type but these are represented by aging C-models. Similarly, the Mikoyan MiG-29 stock are A-models of the series. Some firepower is gained through the 30+ Sukhoi Su-22 fighter-bombers kept on hand but this is a design rooted in Cold War thinking, the prototype first-flying in mid-1966. The fighter fleet makes up 32% of all strength.
Training is given much attention in the force and over 36% is dedicated to such types covering the usual gamut of fighter, helicopter, advanced, and basic training types. Additional Italian M-346 Advanced Jet Trainers are on order. The transport force encompasses 16% of all strength with no heavy-haulers to be had. Instead the service makes due with utility and tactical types of both foreign and domestic origination. The rotorcraft force is 15% of all strength and in need of modernzation - the stable made up of the local W-3 backed by a usable force of Soviet-era Mi-2 and Mi8/17 platforms.
September 2019 - The U.S. State Department has approved the sale of 32 x F-35A strike fighters to the nation of Poland.
NOTES: The WDMMA.org Power Index (PwrIndx) score looks at various qualities of an individual air power (or service branch). While total aircraft certainly influences the rating, aircraft variety (force balance) also plays a key role in determining an air service's placement on the list. Other focused qualities include local industry (aerospace-related) capability, future outlook, and current/recent combat experience. All this is worked into a formula which provides an analytical approach to resolving a force's fighting state in the modern world. This approach to fighting strength is highly theoretical and does not take into account a nation's available manpower or resolve in the face of conflict nor does it involve land and naval fighting strength. The top achievable PwrIndx score belongs to the United States Air Force with its rating of 242.9. As of now, UAV systems are not taken into account due to reporting differences between publicly-available sources (these will be integrated as some point). Navy aviation branches do not take into account the fighting capacity of naval ships.

Oculus Rift co-founder says consumer release is expected to stay under $400
Oculus Rift development kits have been kicking around for awhile now, and by all reports they've awfully cool. But where are the consumer versions? Will they be meaningfully different from the DK units? And how much are they going to cost, anyway? The Oculus team gets these questions a lot, and they have a few answers.
The Oculus Rift DK2 is pretty fantastic stuff by all reports, but Oculus VR co-founder Palmer Luckey said the consumer release will be "significantly improved," telling Eurogamer , "The jump from DK1 to DK2 is similar to the jump from DK2 to CD1 [the consumer version]." Among the improvements will be increased resolution, a higher refresh rate of at least 90Hz and a headset redesign that will make the device smaller and lighter.
Unfortunately, while thousands of development kits have been shipped, the consumer release is still a long way off. Luckey noted that while most console development cycles include two or three years of behind-the-scenes work, the Oculus Rift has been in the spotlight from the very start. "We started out showing everything we're working on and getting to as many developers as possible, and letting anyone order it," he said. "We could have just stayed in stealth mode and sent it to a few game developers and we could have announced a year from now and said, 'OK! It's ready to go.' But that would have been negative—much worse for VR overall."
But when it does come, the price shouldn't go much beyond the $350 cost of the DK2. "We want to stay in that $200-$400 price range," co-founder Nate Mitchell said. "That could slide in either direction depending on scale, pre-orders, the components we end up using, business negotiations..."
It's a bit vague, but understandably so given how far off the consumer release is, and at least it's something to go on. The interview touches on a number of other topics, including Sony's Project Morpheus and the impact of the Facebook acquisition. If you're at all interested in the Oculus Rift, it's definitely worth your time.

$(eval $(shell $(MAKE) -pf /some/other/Makefile | grep '^some_var ='))
$(info Now 'some_var' is (hopefully) set and equal to $(some_var))

A: Another (also terrible option) if you HAVE to do this and you can edit both makefiles is:
If you want value of variable VAR_A from makefileA in makefileB you could
makefileA:
SOMTHING=1
VAR_A=$(SOMTHING)

# Rule to print var A
.PHONY: get_var_a
get_var_a:
    @echo $(VAR_A)

makefileB:
# Set the variable by calling make makefileA with the target to get the value of
# VAR_A
VAR_A='$(shell echo make -f makefileA get_var_a)'

But it would really be better to have some common makefile that you just include in both...
Example of Common Makefile
common.mk:
LIST1=a c e g i k
LIST2=b d f h j l
VAR_A=$(sort $(LIST1) $(LIST2) $(EXRTA_ITEMS))

makefile_a.mk:
# Prefix with '-' if you don't want the makefile to fail if common.mk
# can't be found
-include common.mk
$(info makefile_A VAR_A = $(VAR_A))

makefile_b.mk:
# Add some extra items into VAR_A by popuulating this variable
EXRTA_ITEMS = m n o p

# No prefix here - so if common.mk can't be found then its an error
include common.mk
$(info makefile_A VAR_A = $(VAR_A))

So here, both makefiles include common.mk - which does some processing to generate a variable called VAR_A and both makefiles can make use of it and even add to it if they know which variables VAR_A is made of.
Effectivly including common.mk is like copy-pasting it inside your makefile.

Q: ListView - SimpleCursorAdapter - @android:id/empty tI've a ListActivity. The layout of the ListActivity is
<ListView android:id="@android:id/list"
           android:layout_width="match_parent"
           android:layout_height="match_parent"
           android:layout_weight="1"
           android:drawSelectorOnTop="false"
           />

<TextView android:id="@android:id/empty"
           android:layout_width="match_parent"
           android:layout_height="match_parent"
           android:text="No elements found"
           android:gravity="center"
           />

The ListActivity is related to a CursorAdapter.
When a user selects an item of the list, I start another activity to show the details of the item selected:
Intent intent = new Intent(MyListActivity.this, DetailActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);

Everything works fine, except when the user selects an item of the list. Before starting the "detail activity", the "No elements found" message of the textview with "@android:id/empty" id is shown.
This is happening because I close the cursor in the onPause method. But I think that I must close it, because I'm leaving the current activity.
@Override
protected void onPause()
{
    super.onPause();

    if (this.cursor != null)
        this.cursor.close();

    this.db.close();
}

What could I do if I don't want to see the textview with "@android:id/empty" when I'm leaving the current activity??
Thanks

A: Let the system manage it for you.
getActivity().startManagingCursor(yourCursor);

Call that code (with the proper cursor variable name in there) right after you call the cursor and the system will take care of managing the cursor for you, closing it when it deems it is no longer needed.
Your other option is to move that code to the onStop method which is called when the activity is no longer visible to the user.


It is especially comfortable for beginners as well as for professional artists - he difficult and long-winded process of laying out the wool is not necessary any more. The FLYFEL-web Nonwoven can directly be felted by hand or with the help of a dryer and turns into a thin wool-felt for soft scarves or clothing. Felted on fine open silk fabrics (Nuno-felting), creates beautiful, feathery silk-felt fabrics, which can afterwards be painted, printed or embroidered with beads - simply fabulous!
FLYFEL-web Nonwoven is easy to cut: For example - into strings that can be plaited and felted to produce a scarf; or to pieces for the production of clothing or bags (if a thicker felt is wanted, so simply lay one piece of needle-punched fleece on top of another and felt them together); or to ornaments that are felted onto wool or other fabrics.
PLEASE NOTE THAT ALTHOUGH WE CUT THIS PRODUCT TO ONE METRE LENGTH, IT CAN SHRINK DURING SHIPPING AS IT HAS A LIFE OF IT'S OWN!


I think I'll make some attachments with these silk organza fabrics, they have all been dyed with natural dyes. Somewhere in this mess I have some silk ribbons, yarns, etc. that I dyed at the same time that'll also look good on the surface of my latest baby. I also have some raw handspun muga silk yarn that'll do for branch defintion, can't seem to find my brownish raffia I had on hand - it was a weird coffee color that would work really well for branch material.
