The official EasyReading font of the Portofino Park a leading player of an exhibition opening on 30 June.
On the coming 30 June 2018 at 17.00hrs, the travelling exhibition PORTOFINO LANDSCAPE opens, giving a round up of the joint research work carried out by the Italian and English institutions over six months in the local area, with special attention paid to the point of view of the English visitors, who have always been keen visitors to the bay.
The exhibition, with free admission, was organised by the Municipality of Portofino and curated by Alberto Girani and Francesco Faccini of the University of Genoa – Department of Sciences of the Earth, of the Environment and of Lifeand by the Nottingham Leverhulme Project team, comprising Pietro Piana, Charles Watkins and Ross Balzaretti, of the School of Geography and Department of History.
The project managed to involve not only the academic environment, where it found fertile ground, but especially the residents of the village and its numerous visitors.
What was the idea behind a study like this? The awareness of the scale of uniqueness behind a landscape like that of the coastal village here on the Riviera di Levante, which has always been one of the most famous destinations for international tourists. The first stage of the exhibition will be in Portofino’s council-run Little Theatre, a jewel of maritime architecture, which has recently been refurbished and restored to its old splendour.
At the heart of the studies that brought about PORTOFINO LANDSCAPE, there is the Park, which has been protected since 1935 and even today gives witness to the profound, and to a certain extent complex, interaction between Man and his environment, which can be seen in the most important characters of the scenario that it presents, an icon representative of Italy. The exhibition includes documents of various kinds (pictures, drawings, old and new photos, written source material and old cards), which can all reveal to the interlocutor how much history lies behind a mosaic of panels, which mainly aim to reconstruct relationships and interactions that have contributed to a changing landscape over the centuries. The exhibition was conceived in Italian and English and consists of 27 panels in portrait format, each measuring 1 m by 70 cm, prepared and printed by Parco di Portofino.
The director of the Portofino Park Alberto Girani takes us behind the scenes at PORTOFINO LANDSCAPE: «This is an innovative project because it was created from a local area which is studied from various points of view. The backing of the University of Nottingham was important, because it threw new light on drawings, paintings and watercolours, down to the materials used by the guides to access English culture in recounting the landscape value of Portofino and its success. We thought of providing anyone who is interested with a barrage of ideas that cannot fail to lead to reflecting on the current value of certain Italian landscapes. We will help you dig out the roots and reasons underlying the value which, although it can be felt, deserves discussion. This is not an exhibition following Cartesian discipline, so do not expect to find a logical route with something proven at the end, but rather an exhibition aiming to highlight the value that is in play here and which needs safeguarding, on the one hand, and bringing to life, on the other, with all the critical issues arising from this».
How did the cooperation with Charles Watkins, of the University of Nottingham, come about?
«Charles is a lecturer in Rural Geography at the Faculty of Social Sciences of the University of Nottingham and how we met is almost quite touching. Apart from managing the Portofino park, I am a lecturer at the University of Genoa. Pietro Piana, one of the exhibition authors, from being a friend of my daughter, became one of my students on a course of Planning of protected areas. He was an excellent student and passed the exam with top grade, with honours. After his three-year degree course, when he was followed by my friend and colleague Francesco Faccini, who is also one of the authors of Portofino Landscape, he ended up in my course of specialisation. He then needed to work in the field, but we had no openings for him to work, so between universities we decided to open a path for this talented young man and we offered him to Charles Watkins, who took him under his wing at Nottingham and refined his talent, until one day he called to tell me that he wanted to do something together with me. We all met several times and a feeling grew up immediately and this is the first fruit of our work. It is a light exhibition, arising from a meeting of visions, from a desire to leave a mark, more than restricting ourselves to informing, that is why the approach we chose was cultural. We selected pieces of history of the Portofino landscape, to see what effect this would have on people; our opinion counts, of course, but we are still specialists and what we want is to speak to the ordinary people».
In common with the Portofino Park, this exhibition also shares the font used for all the panels and informative material: EasyReading. Why did the choice fall on them?
«Ours is an ideological and communicative choice, because we need sharing to be immediate, clear and, above all, aimed at everyone, without distinction, and just as I chose EasyReading for the Portofino Park, in this case too the choice could not be other than for the inclusive character created by the designer, Federico Alfonsetti, who will be here together with the rest of the team for the inauguration on the coming 30 June in Portofino. We are talking about the only character that can help someone who may have difficulty, apart from making life easier for normal readers, and I would add, by the way, that between September and October the exhibition will be in Nottingham; we are waiting for the exact details from the University on availability, but Portofino Landscape is flying to England, together with EasyReading, and may also be enriched by a photographic exhibition, to show what is not on direct display in the English Midlands: the beauty of Portofino and the beauty of Italy».
Federico Alfonsetti, EasyReading designer, will be one of the speakers on this coming 30 June in the coastal village of the Riviera di Levante for the inauguration of PORTOFINO LANDSCAPE: «The Portofino Park was one of the first in Italy to introduce our font, showing how far-sighted the director Alberto Girani was at the time, and with the passing of the years it is nice to see these relationships growing and giving new fruits. It is an immense pleasure for our team to be involved in international projects, which may have a strong academic basis but nevertheless aim to speak to the public, to youngsters, to tourists and to anyone who will be given the chance, every day, to come into contact with the studies and the wonders that such fine thinking minds have been able to bring out. Speaking to everyone, without distinctions, and being understood by everyone, without misunderstanding, is the most beautiful thing that can be done today and that is what our idea of improvement revolves around».

Sailors on ships like the USS Alamo could have been exposed to Agent Orange during the Vietnam War but have had trouble verifying their benefit claims.
Sailors on ships like the USS Alamo spent days and weeks in the territorial waters of Vietnam, where they could have been exposed to the toxic herbicide Agent Orange — linked with various health conditions including Parkinson’s disease and cancer.
Until recently, they were not eligible for the same health benefits as soldiers who served on the ground or patrolled inland rivers, and who later developed health problems associated with Agent Orange. However, a federal court ruled Tuesday that the Department of Veterans Affairs must extend those benefits to those who served offshore. A bill considering the issue, called the Blue Water Navy Vietnam Veterans Act, also came up in the last Congress, but did not pass in the Senate.
Even with Tuesday’s ruling, one key obstacle stands between veterans like those Alamo sailors and the benefits they need. How can families — and the VA officials assessing their claims — prove that a particular ship was in the Agent Orange exposure zone, defined by the legislation as within 12 nautical miles of a boundary off the coast of Vietnam?
Currently, that process involves looking through handwritten deck logs or other archived documents to prove eligibility. It’s a time-consuming process for veterans, their families and the VA.
That’s where Brian Harris, Jackson Sutherland, Alexi Himarios and Matthew Jacobs come in. They knew there had to be a better way.
All four are students in the University of Virginia’s new Master of Science in business analytics program, which welcomed its first class this year. The yearlong, Washington, D.C.-based program, run jointly by UVA’s Darden School of Business and McIntire School of Commerce, allows students to continue working full-time while learning how to harness the power of big data and apply it in their field.
When Harris, a major in the Army Reserves, heard about a Tableau Student Data Challenge dealing with this topic, he knew it would be a great opportunity for his classmates to put the skills they were learning in the MSBA program to good use.
Harris reached out to classmates and together the four students entered and won the contest, held by software company Tableau. Unwilling to stop there, they continued expanding and perfecting the tool they developed and briefed VA officials on its use.
One official, upon viewing the tool, “said it could do in minutes what might otherwise take weeks,” Sutherland said.
This screenshot shows the movements of the USS Alamo, with the orange dots showing when the ship entered the Agent Orange exposure zone. Sailors who were on board at that time could be eligible for health benefits.
To make all of that information accessible, the team spent a Saturday digitizing handwritten ship logs, which are stored in the National Archives and record the day-to-day coordinates of each ship. So far, they have digitized records of 24 ships, with approximately 750 remaining. They are reaching out to veteran’s groups to help with some of the digitization, and also hope to use machine learning technology — something they are studying in class right now – to more quickly upload records.
Jacobs, a Navy veteran, said the tools they are developing fit in with a broader emphasis on data and data analytics in the military.
The human impact, Jacobs said, provided more than enough motivation for the team to work on this project, even outside of class and while balancing full-time jobs.
Darden professor Casey Lichtendahl, who teaches in the MSBA program, called the project a showcase for what the program is trying to accomplish, because it focuses on “translating” data science into information that laypeople, businesses and policymakers can use to make important decisions.
Sutherland said that balance of business and data was exactly what drew him to UVA in the first place.
Right now, students are working on a case study for Hilton Hotels & Resorts, examining employee retention and looking for ways to reduce attrition. At the end of the unit, they will present their findings directly to Hilton’s human resources team.
In the months to come, the four classmates hope to formalize their commitment to “data for good,” as Harris called it, by finding ways for each subsequent MSBA class to lend their skills to a cause or organization.
For now, though, they are focused on getting the VA to use the tool they have built. That could happen soon, if Wednesday’s federal court ruling is not appealed to the Supreme Court, or if Congress passes the legislation. Whenever it does happen, they want to be ready.

Every building project has its surprises. From a small DIY project to building a hospital, things don’t always go according to plan. This efficiency-sucking truth could change for construction firms through virtual reality. Virtual reality is more than just a cool way to play video games. It has applications across many industries and disciplines from helping veterans cope with PTSD to touring a college campus from across the country. Its application to construction could have a significant impact on building and planning projects.
Planning Virtual reality allows for the planning process of a building project to be much more detailed and precise. Before the building process starts, the plans can be fine-tuned to cut out inefficiency. Once a building project has started, it is costly to make changes; virtual reality can eliminate this need. Using virtual reality, you could look behind a wall and see what could interferences or challenges you might come up against when planning the plumbing, electric, duct work, and more. Resolving these issues before a project is started means less time is wasted and projects will be completed on schedule. It can also take the speed of project approval to the next level. Quicker approvals have been seen by many firms who use virtual reality because there is less confusion for someone who is not accustomed to looked at blueprints or BIM models. If these plans are shared with the construction crew, everyone will be on the same page and have a good understanding of what will be constructed. Design More than the layout and building materials can be planned by using virtual reality. This tool allows for the design to come to full fruition before any walls go up. For instance, a dentist could see what his patient rooms look like, where he will set up his station, and where the window will be in relation to his computer. Being able to really see the rooms takes a lot of the guessing out for the client. Virtual reality gives a whole new layer to jobsite walks. It’s no longer just about envisioning what will come together, it can be seen before it happens. You can also insert the exact specs from a manufacturer, such as the exact faucet you will use, increasing again the level of detail. Higher satisfaction in clients can be obtained through virtual reality because of the level of involvement they are able to have. Room for creativity Like all new technology being applied to the construction industry, virtual reality in construction leaves room for creativity to take hold. New ways to apply this tool have potential to revolutionize the industry. When combined with other trending technologies, such as drones or GPS tracking, virtual reality is made even more powerful.

The Cycle That Never Arrived..... Untill Today!
Discussion in 'Aquarium Nitrogen Cycle' started by LineRat, Mar 26, 2010.
New to the forums and wanted to share my cycling ordeal with you all.
Now, I have never owned any fish but my wife has and we both thought (well mostly I thought) It would be fun to start an aquarium especially since the price was right.
Got it home and set it up.. decorated it and filled it with de-chlorinated water (The kit came with a packet of Tetra Aqua Safe).
I then sat down and scoured google for all the info I could find on this new hobby I had just committed myself to and saw that I needed to let the tank cycle before we add any fish. Okay I say.. lets start on that and wait so off to our LFS just down the street to see what they had to help that along and fish gaze a bit lol.
I mentioned that we weren't buying any fish for a few weeks to let the tank cycle first and that's when the clerk suggested TSS. GREAT! Now we can "Add Fish Immediately" as the package says.
So we take them home and add the TSS and then we add the fish.
Water tests seemed great for 2 days 0,0,0 no anything in there.. as far as I knew at the time things had worked out. Till day 3 when I had 0.5,0,0.... did a 50% water change and the next day we had 1,0,0.. did back to back water changes and this has been the story of my cycle ever since.. I have even added a second bottle of TSS just incase I used it wrong the first time... numbers are still consistantly 1,0,0 and this is now week 6 going into week 7.
So 2 weeks ago ( knowing alot more now.. knowledge is power right?) We purchased a 55g kit from walmart.. again the price was right. Set it up and decided to cycle it fishless and just move all the fish into it once it's good to go and till then coninue the daily water changes to keep them atleast alive.. poor fish.
Got a cup of gravel from the LFS (all they would give me but I wasnt counting on any) placed it in a new nylon and dosed the tank with ACE brand ammonia ( yep the pure stuff.. did my research this time around lol. I can learn sometimes) to 5ppm and waited for the magic to happen..... it didn't.
For the last 2 weeks my 55 has been sitting at 5,0,0 ph is 7.6, KH is 87ppm temp 86.
So I did more and more reading... I have asked around at work and no one I know owns an aquarium which since most of them live on base in Navy barracks isn't surprising I figured I was SOL as far as cycling anything went. Till I read a short post where someone mentioned Fritz Turbo Start #700. I had never heard of it but figure I'd google it and see if it was worth even considering ( So far I have tried TSS twice, BioZyme once.. that stuff is utter and used gravel) Everything I had read seemed like it was the real deal... so now in desperation I ordered some.
My 4oz bottle arrived yesterday in an inflatable Ice chest box liner thingy with an ice pack in it I was now curious.. I know it has to be refrigerated but hey this was cool.. the bottle also had a use by day for 3 months from now... even better.
So I dose my tank with 2 oz of it ( package says 1 oz treats a 40g and one can dose 5x more than needed so I went for just over my needed amount) And waited.
I'm can't sit still I'm so happy to see a color other than light blue on my nitrite kit and Yellow on my nitrate kit lol!! I've had them for 6 weeks now and they never were any color but the one for 0!
It usally takes a few weeks for notice in cycle change doesn't happen over nite Lol!!! Bio chemicals don't work like the bottle reads takes time for tank to go thru cycle!What did these tanks come with? Are they under gravel filters or hang on the back? At most tanks in fresh take around 4 to 6 weeks to gain strenght and even then can take longer depending on what your setup is can you give me more info on all that you have so far?
Yeah, I know a fish in cycle takes a while but 6 weeks with nothing but ammonia spiking and nothing else even hinting at registering is getting tiresome. I'm also concerned for the long term health effects it will have on my fish ( which I can't return.. my LFS is really a crappy little store).
In my 28g I have a Penguin 150B HOB filter and a Aquatech 10-20 HOB with a combined flowrate of 270g. I'm going to upgrade to a second Penguin 150B as soon as I can afford to.
Substrate is Gravel and the plants are plastic.
The ph and kh is the same as the 55g I'm doing the fishless in and the temp is kept at 80.
I'm not expecting an instant cycle with the turbostart.. I'm just thrilled to finally see a cycle going period.
Yeah I totallty understand. It takes a good while to cycle a tank but with no fish or a bacteria start will take twice as long. If there is no fish in your tank then there is a faster way to acheive this buy a shrimp not frozen but a fresh one and hang it in your tank for a week and let bio load get started this way it's alot cheaper this way and you will see a change don't let shrimp totally decay but just enough to see a spike in ammonia levels then as well as nitrites. You do know about cycle I suppose ? this will happen much faster this way.After tank cycles slowly introduce fish into your tank like 1 or 2 every other week but make sure all ammonia and nitrites are at 0 levels.
Welcome to Fish Lore LineRat!
Yep, I now know all about the Nitrogen cycle lol.. have done nothing but research it for the last 6 weeks since my 28 was set up.
You are talking about doing a fishless cycle.. thats what I am doing in the 55 gallon that I added the ammonia and Turbostart to.
You need to feed bacteria to start up and I would just put in a few gold fish to help out and feed them every day the thing that's happening is there is nothing in your tank that bacteria can feed on so I suggest doing this to help bio lload to produce or other wise you spent money on bottled stuff that has nothing to eat and end up dying so try this and you will see.
Stang Man, I have been feeding the bacteria 5ppm of ammonia once a day since adding the bottled stuff. So far my ammonia is going from 5ppm down to 1 ppm in a 24 hour period.
Nitrites have been holding steady at 1 ppm but the nitrates are climbing by 5-10ppm a day.
I'm not sure if my first post was confusing or not but I am pretty sure I explained that I was dosing the 55g with ammonia maintaining 5ppm in there.... I wrote that after a long day at work so it's possible it was un clear.
Okay so ammonia has done it's job and nitrites are next sounds alot better than nothing happening. Have you tested water for ammonia and nitrites?
If I'm reading your thread correctly, you did a water change when TSS was in the tank? If so, that might have led to the TSS failing you. You're not supposed to do a water change until the tenth day of having TSS.
I was going to buy Fritz in case my TSS failed me, but I saw the high shipping costs ($22) and I think I'm just going to do daily W/C's or get some SuperBac if TSS fails.
B what kind of pleco? Most types of pleco will out grow your tank within a year. I'd suggest looking it up and if he isn't one of the ones that stay small let him go to a better home and buy a different type.
I agree that it was most likely the water changes that caused the TSS to fail. I've used it twice on two separate tanks and IME, as long as you follow the directions carefully and completely it works well. Since the TSS didn't work, I would recommend getting a bottle of Prime or Amquel+ and starting a daily water change routine until the cycle is complete.
I'm sorry this part is a bit confusing, are we talking about the 28 or the 55 here? You start and end with what seems like the 55, but there are parts where it sounds like you are talking about the 28. ??? You mention that you used TSS and BioZyme, but were those supplements added to the 28 with fish, or the 55 without? Which tank did you add the Fritz to? and which tank do these readings belong to?
It came with the setup. I also have an AquaTech 10-20 running as a supplement to the penguin.
Thats been the game plan so far. I have been doing daily W/C on my 28g since day 3.. going on 7 weeks now.
Yep, it is kinda confusing... thats what I get for posting at the end of a 14 day stretch of 12 hour work days lol.
Let me try to clear that up... That bit is referring to the 55g I am cycling without fish. I haven't used any TSS in it only the 28g was ever treated with that and only that.
The 55g has had Used Gravel, BioZyme and Fritz added to it.
So far everything looks to be on track. My Ammonia is dropping daily and the nitrates are climbing while the Nitrites have held steady at 1ppm the whole time.
That was day 4. I dosed it up to 2ppm ammonia right after taking the readings. Ill keep updating with where the numbers are at this afternoon.
Hi. Just weanted to say welcome to the forums! Looks like the other members got you covered. Good luck with the rest of your cycle.
Congrats that your cycle is appearing! It seems you are doing all you can for now, best of luck, it gets easier once this is all done!
You're right that the bottle of TSS doesn't really give sufficient information regarding proper use for success. Our mods were kind enough to ask Tetra directly about the proper use of TSS and received a very detailed response. Q & A With Tetra on TSS If you would like to try TSS one more time, we can help you ensure that this time would be more successful. If so, please post your readings for your 28g, and we can give you a step by step on how to proceed with TSS. It would also be a good idea to test and post results of your tap water so we can get an idea of what your base parameters are.
Your 55 seems to be coming along great! Just keep up with that one and you should be good to go in no time.
If you would like to try TSS one more time, we can help you ensure that this time would be more successful. If so, please post your readings for your 28g, and we can give you a step by step on how to proceed with TSS. It would also be a good idea to test and post results of your tap water so we can get an idea of what your base parameters are.
I read the info contained in the Q & A With Tetra about Tetra SafeStart post and purchased another (and hopefully the last) bottle of TSS.
My base tap water readings are.
I have not done any water changes in 3 days so the water would be free of any conditioners or ammonia purifiers etc.
So today will be day one and I will update as it goes along over the next couple of weeks. Now if I can only restrain myself from testing the water over the next 48 hours I'll be good lol!
Good luck! Remember even if you test NO water changes until you test on day 10. If your cycle isn't done then you'll have to go back to daily water changes. If it is done than generally all you need is one water change to get nitrate levels down for your regular maintenance.
I am starting day 5 of the 28g TSS cycle and just thought I'd post my readings over the last 4 days..
Day 2 Did not test as per instructions.

Season has been rocking along smoothly so far and though I have not been active on here, I have been busy in the woods. I've been more than blessed this year when it comes to bringing in the deer meat. I never knew going into 2017 deer season that it would be one for the books. So I'll give everyone a run down on what has went down the last few months.
As Russcat stated, we kicked off the Kentucky season in grand fashion by having his two boys come share a camp with us. We brought it down to the wire and Logan and I were able to get the job done. Don't let Russcat or anyone else tell you any different, we were known as the A Team from the beginning!!!
Fast forward to Kentucky rifle season. I had big plans to shoot a good buck because our trail cams were crawling with shooters! I averaged about a dozen deer a day and the bucks seemed to be in love and ready. Well, I seen this one deer the second morning about 11 am and elected to pass. He was probably a 125ish inch 9 pointer I guessed at 3.5 years old. Well, I had another deer I had videoed with my cell phone for three days I called Fluffy. Little did I know on the last morning fluffy would run a doe in on me at a different location and I just completely misjudged him and needless to say I wasn't real proud of having to put a tag on a 2.5 year old.... So my Kentucky season was over before it really got started. I'm sure CaptTrae will be along to post pics of the lease kills this year. I think we killed 7 or 8 bucks this year with the biggest being a 150ish type 9 pointer.
On to Alabama. Bow season was about average at best and I didn't see any deer I even remotely got excited about. I had one big 8 pointer on cam I would have shot but he disappeared a week before bow season opened. I also had a goofy rack deer I would like to shoot and he too disappeared until December 11. I was in one of my favorite stands overlooking a bean field and a foodplot with thick bedding to the side of it and I figured it was time for the deer to be doing their deal so I hit the grunt call about 4:00 that evening. I didn't even get my call put up and this deer comes bopping down the edge of the thicket just looking for a fight. He grunted, snorthwheezed, tore trees down and made scrapes. It was my goof racked buck and I knew I was going to shoot him. I let him put on a show and also learned a valuable lesson when calling whitetails too. I watched him initially tear everything up and then he got in some sage grass and stood for literally 20 minutes in one spot. If I wouldn't have known that deer was there I would have never seen him! That goes to show you that the amount of times you call and don't see anything doesn't mean they didn't respond to you. If I would have moved any during that "standoff" he would have busted me and been on his way. Well he slipped back in the thicket and I grunted again and he come charging out of there ready for a fight. Unfortunately for him he couldn't handle the end of the fight I gave him and I had my first Alabama buck of 2017.
Fast forward from that Monday to the proceeding Thursday. I had planned to hunt at the house that morning and go with a good friend to his lease that evening to doe shoot. Well, I didn't see anything from the stand and decided I better get down early and go get ready to go with him. I got down at 9 and slipped around the edge of the woods to look down a creek bottom that is fire in the rut. As I was walking around the corner of the woods I looked across the bean field to another scope of woods and seen a doe standing there eating. Something just told me she had a friend with her so I watched. Keep in mind this is 500+ yards away and then I seen him. A monster! I could see the buck's rack from that distance without bino's and then just to confirm his size I looked at him through my bino's. He was huge. I immediately started to devise a plan to stalk him and decided I would get in the creek bottom and sneak around cause just so happen we have a shooting house about 300 yards from them and that's the direction the doe was feeding. I text my buddy and told him the deal and he said he would go without me to his place. After falling in the creek three different times I made it to flat ground and was able to slip within 50 yards of the shooting house. I layed on the ground ready to shoot for 45 minutes and didn't see anything. I then snuck into the shooting house and the wind was perfect so I decided I wouldn't leave until dark. After a loooooong sit, soaking wet and cold, I begin to think the deer had already passed through my lane before I got there but I stayed optimistic. Around 4pm I looked up in the lane and all I could see was mass and browtines. Although this wasn't the deer I had seen that morning I couldn't pass him up. I settled the crossairs and let one fly. Buck 2 for Alabama had hit the dirt and boy was he a good one. I didn't have any history with this buck nor has any of the neighbors but I like surprises so I was tickled with him.
Now on to the final buck of my Alabama season. It was the day after Christmas and I was on clean up duty, because we all know Santa may bring the gifts, but he sure as heck doesn't clean the aftermath of them up. I had loaded the truck up with garbage and was headed to our dumpster with it and of course I was window shopping while I drove down the road slowly where I wouldn't blow garbage all the way down it to the dumpster. Well, I look out on the neighbor and there stands the deer I been wanting to shoot allllll season! He was with a doe and heading towards us. Needless to say I did get a little extra hitch in my giddy up and unloaded the garbage basically in one sliding fish tail from the truck and back to the house I went. It was time for Santa to deliver MY Christmas present. Not much else to say about it though, I got in a ladder stand behind my house 100 yards around 2:15 and here come the doe with THREE bucks in tow. The big one of course draggin up the rear. After they jumped the fence and got out in front of me I was able to settle my sights and make a perfect shot on him. Tagged out and on to my Mississippi lease for this month's rut!
This past deer season has tested my patience and even though it looks like I killed one everytime I went, that would be a far stretch from the reality. I've logged MANY hours of sightless time in the stand this year. We had more acorns then ever and it has proven to be hard to even see a decent amount of deer. Deer sightings were hard to come by and for the deer I was able to take I am thankful! I hope everyone's dreams come true in 2018 and I wish everyone a prosperous new year!!
Those are great looking bucks! Congrats on a successful season.
Congrats on a great season! You never know going in how it will be coming out! We always have high expectations, otherwise we wouldn't go! Congrats again!
Hunting is a gamble, despite all the planning, preparation, etc. you never know how it will play out until it does!!
Wow, you have been a busy guy. Congrats on your successes!

"How would it feel to fly as an albatross, to feel the wind under my wings, stretched luxuriously out to my sides, borne aloft by a cushioning wind? Would it feel like swinging on my childhood swingset, the brief and easy pumping of my little legs carrying me higher and yet higher into the free blue sky, the air swooshing past my chest? Or would it feel more like riding my bike downhill on a wide path, holding my arms out to the sides as gravity pulls me along? I held out my arms to practice."

Natural Presence integrates the traditional disciplines of natural history and contemplative practice. Natural Presence means letting the natural world make itself present to us on its own terms, as much as possible. The term also notes that as children, we begin our lives “naturally” with a holistic presence to nature. Finally, it characterizes the naturalist’s presence to nature, including her whole self: physical, intellectual, sensory, emotional, spiritual.
In my writing and photography, I celebrate the beauty and power of both next-door and exotic nature, find ways to become more authentically present to the natural world, and see how much we can learn about nature through our own close observation and creative thinking.
I explore the intimate human-nature relationship and the ways in which we find meaning in natural history in different phases of our lives. My stories explore the science behind what or who we encounter in nature, incorporating observations and insights from other naturalists, and reflect on what it all might mean to us.
I hope you’ll share in comments your own stories from your backyard nature, and thoughts about its significance in your own life.

For every shiny new thing that arrives on the culinary scene, there’s a classic restaurant that you might not have tried yet. And while we’re all for novelty foams and the latest farm-to-table craze, there’s something sweet about the old and the unfussy. Herewith, let us guide you around town to some of this city’s most legendary standbys. Just think: these throwbacks have stuck around for good reason.

The whole world seems to have sprouted up around The Apple Pan, an old school burger spot on West Pico. There’s the mall across the street and giant buildings casting shadows on its quaint wood-sided frame. It stands in stubborn resistance to time and change. If you’re looking for grabbing a burger in what essentially feels like a backlot version of old Los Angeles, this is the place. And, yeah, go ahead and order the banana cream pie.

To many a Hollywood partier, Greenblatt’s has long been that place you pass on your way to some Sunset club. But for those hankering solid Jewish deli fare this side of the Mississippi, it’s much more than that. Their pastrami sandwich with Russian dressing is one of the best in town. If you’re going in for a bottle of wine, there’s no more entertaining place to do it.

Fans of ‘90s cult film Swingers will likely recognize The Dresden. The Los Feliz bar, lounge, and restaurant hasn’t changed much since then–or ever. Eat dinner in the massive white vinyl banquettes in the dining room or grab a drink in a bar that feels more like your grandpa’s basement. You won’t go wrong.

Call it a dive. Call it a steakhouse. Call it whatever you want. Chez Jay, that tiny blue-and-white box of a building on Ocean Avenue in Santa Monica, is a surf-and-turf kind of joint where it always feels like California Christmas. There’s always lights strung overhead, and there’s often someone famous (and very unpretentious) saddled up at the bar.

Dan Tana’s feels, in some ways, like Beverly Hills’ answer to Chez Jay, albeit with better food and more elegant decor. Hollywood has hobnobbed here for ages, discussing deals in red vinyl banquettes over untouched piles of pasta.

Walking into Musso & Frank is like stepping back in time, when every table came with a white tablecloth and the martinis put hair on your chest. Waiters don candy-apple red blazers with black lapels, or white dinner jackets with black bow ties. The restaurant has been on Hollywood Boulevard since 1919, making it the oldest one in the neighborhood.
Photo courtesy of @suzukiingerslev via Instagram.
Established just after Musso & Frank, in 1921, Pacific Dining Car–which, as you might imagine, is built around a dining car feel–has similar throwback appeal. The steakhouse is open 24 hours. It’s dark, moody, covered in velvet, and makes for the perfect place to grab a nightcap, in our humble opinion.

Do businesses advertise for the holidays too soon?
Target sets up decorations before Thanksgiving. The decorations are displayed through the holiday season.
Do businesses advertise for the holidays too soon? Even before Thanksgiving is over, we’re exposed to so many advertisements about how amazing the holiday season is, and how we should all think about what our loved ones want for Christmas.
I love the holiday season, and I’m constantly pondering what presents to get my friends and family. The advertisements help me find the best ideas for gifts in the holiday season. I wouldn’t mind seeing Christmas advertisements year round because it gets me so excited to think about spending time with my friends and family.
Most of my friends celebrate Christmas and spend all winter preparing for it, but some friends don’t celebrate it at all. I can understand why they would get annoyed seeing Christmas advertisements all over television and in stores, but Christmas isn’t just about the birth of Jesus Christ; Christmas is also about spreading joy and positivity in your community.
Spreading joy and positivity is one of the many things people do in the holiday season and can be spread through the advertisements we see on a day-to-day basis. I would argue that advertisements and shops full of Christmas items bring people together, no matter what time of year. When stores start to stock the shelves full of ugly Christmas sweaters, hot chocolate, and lively decorations, people everywhere can’t help but get a little bit more joyful.
Advertisements get people thinking about their Christmas traditions.
“My family always goes to Boone the day after Thanksgiving to pick out our Christmas tree, so we can decorate it as soon as possible,” junior Riley Pilcher said.
Advertisements create an emotional connection that is only present for one time a year, might as well make it last as long as possible to spread the joy.

Underscoring the benefits of green energy, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday enlisted the ways on how the newly launched 'Gobar Dhan Yojana' can be beneficial to people in rural India.
In his 41st edition of the Mann Ki Baat programme, Prime Minister Modi stressed on the dual benefits of the scheme- cleanliness and revenue generation for rural India.
"This time, in the budget, emphasis was laid on 'Waste to Wealth' and 'Waste to Energy' through biogas for villages under Swachh Bharat. Initiative named 'GOBAR-Dhan'- Galvanizing Organic Bio-Agro Resources has been rolled out. The purpose of 'GOBAR-Dhan' is to ensure cleanliness in the villages by converting animal dung and garbage into compost. This will not only generate revenue but also clean energy," Prime Minister Modi said.
He urged farmers of rural India to "see animal dung and garbage not just as waste, but as a source of income" and added that through the scheme, "animal health will improve and productivity will increase, biogas will increase self-reliance in energy for cooking and lighting. This will also add to the income of farmers and cattle owners."
To ensure the benefits are accrued, the Prime Minister also announced setting up of an online trading platform for 'Gobar Dhan Yojana' that will connect farmers to the buyers so that farmers get the right price for animal dung and agricultural waste.
Prime Minister Modi further said, "I urge entrepreneurs, especially the sisters living in rural India to come forward. By making self help groups, by creating cooperative societies, take full advantage of this opportunity. Become a participant in this movement of Clean Energy and Green jobs."
In his radio address, Prime Minister Modi also appreciated the state of Chhattisgarh for celebrating its first 'Trash Mahotsav', a festival aimed "to utilise waste creatively and to spread awareness about various ways of re-using garbage."

1. All human authority is delegated, not inherent. That is, all authority ultimately belongs to God, some authority has been delegated to men, and God reserves for Himself all authority which has not been delegated.
2. All human authority is limited, not absolute. Thus, human authority extends only to that which God gives him. Human authority is limited by the terms of the divine delegation, and no one defines his own jurisdiction.
3. Human authority is diffuse, not concentrated. Specifically, God delegates authority via His covenants with people. So, God hasn’t given any person total authority – the diffusion of powers is the rule.
The whole of human history is essentially a prolonged attempt to avoid these limitations. People want to exercise authority given to others and stop others from exercising their rights. People want total power and generally deplore accountability. People want to do things only God can rightfully do. And most of all, they want to reverse God’s assumption that they can only do what has been expressly authorized, and instead assume they can do absolutely anything unless expressly forbidden.
These principles have been recognized throughout much of history, and we present for your edification selections from historic and modern writers who have recognized these principles and expounded on them. That modern nations no longer recognize these truths does not mean the world has evolved into something better, but rather that it is decaying into something less well-ordered. You think the increasing power of the state is progress? It is devolution.

Pappas Development will turn the 32 room Fargo Hotel into 12 single room apartments and four- two bedroom apartments, with room for commercial rentals on the ground floor on the new bulding they will call the Fargo Plaza.

The Tour Majunga, Paris's second-tallest tower in the heart of the La Défense business district, reinvents the concept of office buildings. Its smart building management system, EcoStruxure™ Building, collects and analyzes data collected from strategically located sensors to automatically adjust temperature, lighting, and blinds based on actual real-time conditions (occupancy, sun trajectory) -- and lets tenants adjust settings right from their smartphones.
A key part of Schneider Electric’s collaboration in the creation of Majunga was the integration of its building energy management system, with EcoStruxure Building – a solution that enables the analysis and monitoring of building performance throughout its entire life cycle, bringing together control and management of the facility’s energy distribution, HVAC, lighting, blinds, and fire safety.
To create a work environment that is both comfortable and productive, while simultaneously reducing energy consumption in the Majunga tower.
The system connects a network of sensors (installed in strategic positions throughout the building) with radio frequency identification (RFID) tags inserted into employees’ badge holders. Anonymity is respected, with no risk to people’s safety.
The tags transmit information to the sensors via radio, meaning that real-time occupation of each different space can be monitored. In this way, the system can use the data collected in different zones to assign spaces and make sizing calculations per real needs at any given time. It can also adjust lighting and HVAC levels to optimize energy performance.
This technology proves to be extremely useful, for example, for improved management of meeting room reservations in large workplaces. Employees can see which rooms are available, and they can reserve them from their computer, tablet or smartphone in line with their needs, which could relate to the type of space (meeting room, cubicle) or the location (floor, zone, etc.).
When a room is reserved at a certain time, the system can detect whether the space is occupied in the first 15 minutes; if not, it can send a cancellation email to the person that made the reservation or cancel the reservation directly. If the administrator agrees to cancel the reservation, the room automatically appears as available again on all the other users’ mobile terminals.
Furthermore, the system compares real occupancy rates with the reservations made and each room’s capacity. This provides additional information on the rooms’ real usage and occupancy, which can be of great use if it later becomes necessary to redistribute the space.
Thanks to the information provided by EcoStruxure, it is possible to track the use of space throughout the building life cycle, some valuable data for real estate managers.
Upon their arrival, users can connect to the Majunga tower services portal, enabling them to remotely control the rooms’ lighting, temperature, and blinds from their smartphone, thereby adjusting their workspace comfort to their own taste. The system also makes it possible to regulate the building automatically in accordance with sustainability objectives.
The system turns off devices that are not in use, instead of setting them in stand-by mode. As an example, turning off a media player can save up to 80-90% on its total energy consumption. Thanks to the 3D modeling of the building.
Finally, the system gives a real-time view of all the building’s consumption defined by type of use and by zone. This provides improved knowledge of the building’s performance, which in turn leads to better-informed decisions regarding energy savings and efficiency.
See how Schneider Electric’s EcoStruxure Building Operation collects and analyzes data collected from strategically located sensors.

If there was one thing I simply couldn't get enough of while visiting Cuba, it was their black beans. At every meal we went to, I immediately scoured the menu/buffet for black beans. Upon returning home, I knew that black beans needed to be added to my diet, so I searched online for a recipe that seemed as close to Cuba as possible, and I spent a Friday evening trying my hand at this recipe. The beans came out like perfection, and for breakfast the following day, I enjoyed Cuban black beans with fried eggs on top and a yummy ripe mango.
Drooling over here as always when you post pictures of food. Will make this as soon as I get home. Black beans are tough to find in the UK sadly.

Derry City emerged victorious from a bad-tempered but entertaining derby game at Finn Park.
This game in Ballybofey had everything, but whilst City emerged victorious, the evening was overshadowed by a possible leg break for defender Ciaran Coll, the victim of a disgraceful tackle from Colm Deasy who received a straight red card.
Harps were incandescent on 21 minutes when they had the ball in the net, only for it to be ruled out by referee Neil Doyle. Nathan Gartside, in attempting to set Derry on a quick attack after collecting a free kick, only succeeded in kicking the ball into the path of Niall Logue. The ball rebounded off the Harps man and into the path of Nathan Boyle who tapped into an empty net. But much to Harps’ disbelief and Derry relief, the goal was ruled out with Logue cautioned.
Harps’ chances in this game took a severe blow on 36 minutes when Colm Deasy completely lost his discipline, clattering into the back of Ciaran Coll and receiving a straight red card in the process. The Finn Harps fans foolishly applauded the tackle, which proved to be the end of Coll’s involvement who was replaced by Aidy Delap five minutes before the break.
Still, Harps should have gone into the break in the lead, as Nathan Gartside came for a corner and got nowhere near it, and Cowan should have scored, heading over the bar with an empty net to aim at.
The early goal that Derry craved arrived within seven minutes of the restart. A quickly taken free kick on the right caught Harps on the back foot and McDonagh’s ball across the face of goal found Junior who brought it back into the area before laying the ball off for Greg Sloggett who switched it to Delap who slammed it past Gallagher and into the roof of the net from ten yards.
Derry were fortunate to hold onto their lead on 63 minutes when a Harps corner by McAleer found O’Reilly unmarked at the back post. His header was somehow kept out by Gartside at close range but it sparked a goalmouth scramble with Harps players desperately trying to force the ball over the line, before the Derry defence scrambled it clear eventually.
But Harps kept going and they got their equaliser on 74 minutes when Jacob Borg’s cross was flicked on to the back post where former City striker Nathan Boyle took a touch before firing it past an exposed Gartside.
That proved a key moment as Derry finally got back on the front foot and they crept back into the lead on 82 minutes, McDonagh’s cross finding Parkhouse who sent a bullet header past Gallagher from ten yards to put City 2-1 ahead.
Four minutes of added time gave Harps the chance to apply late pressure but it was Derry who pounced, Ciaran Gallagher coming out of his goal and missing his kick and Parkhouse took full advantage, rolling in his second goal of the evening.
There was still time for further drama and Harps were awarded a penalty when Gilchrist fouled Cowan. Substitute Mikey Place rolled the ball past Gartside but it proved to be the las kick of the game as Derry emerged as winners from an incredible derby.
FINN HARPS: Gallagher, Deasy, O’Reilly, Borg, Cowan, McAleer, Boyle (Place 82’), Todd, McNamee, Kavanagh, Logue.
DERRY CITY: Gartside, McDermott (Cole 57’), Toal, Gilchrist, Coll (Delap 40’, Stokes 84’)), Harkin, Sloggett, McDonagh, McNamee, Parkhouse, Ogide-Uzokwe.

Babylon 5 fandom help needed!
The Babylon 5 article on Fan History Wiki needs your help! The article is supposed to give a history of the fandom. At the moment, it isn't doing that very well. It only has very basic information. It needs more. Whatever information you can add, from a date added on the timeline to a fandom specific term to how big a fansite or community is, that would be really great!
Fan History also has a directory of Babylon 5 fans with 786 articles. The articles about members of the fandom are a neat way to promote yourself, people in the fandom you love and as a way of warning people away from wankers and other fandom trouble makers! They also help give an interesting picture of the fandom's history by showing which fandoms Babylon 5 fans came from, what fandoms they joined after leaving the Babylon 5 fandom, who the big name fans are, etc.
Disclaimer/claimer: Nope, I don't own a bit of it; I just like to play around with the characters.
Which comes first, the fasten or the zip?
Discuss. For my part, I maintain that fasten-zip is the correct method.
I have a few questions for anyone who has already seen the Lost Tales. I'd prefer to avoid spoilers, but as long as they're clearly marked in the subject or body of the comment, that's fine too. I hope I won't offend anyone with any of my questions.
How pleased are you with the movie overall? Did you feel like the stories were told well (ie clearly) and completely? In general, was there anything that was left unanswered that you wish hadn't been? Would you say that it has more in common with the original series, or with the movies? How much does it build on what's come before -- is it necessary to be familiar with Crusade or the movies in order to enjoy/understand the plot?
I definitely plan to watch the Lost Tales when I can, but I was hoping to get a short comment or two on what to expect, in general. Thanks in advance!
Welcome to the asylum! Feel free to join and post discussion topics, info, fan fiction/art, graphics or anything else related to Babylon 5.
Of note, a new Babylon 5 movie is coming out July 31 called Babylon 5: The Lost Tales. Info and trailer can be found on the official Babylon 5 website under 'Main Menu.' I'm hopeful that it will prove to be entertaining.

Everyone loves the sound of a guitar, it’s true, but those who discount the ukulele based on its size just don’t understand how amazing a little sound can be. It’s got a lovely, soft little voice that fills you with joy, and there’s hardly a person who can keep their hands off them, even if they haven’t a clue how to play. Thankfully, no one asks that you know how to play ukulele on Play Your Ukulele Day, we just ask that you pick up that Ukulele and play!
The ukulele is arguably the most iconic sound from Hawaii, which is where it got its start. Everything about this tiny guitar is adorable, right down to what its name means, “Jumping Flea”. Sure, fleas aren’t all that cute, unless you imagine an adorable cartoon flea along the lines of the firefly in “The Princess and the Frog”, then suddenly it’s the cutest thing you’ve ever seen. That’s the ukulele, a cartoon flea with a bright voice and a cheery disposition.
The Ukulele came into existence sometime in the 1880’s, though the name of its predecessor is less adorable than ‘jumping flea’. The origin instrument was of Portuguese origin, and was known as the machete. Sounds violent, doesn’t it? Thankfully, neither the sound of the Ukulele nor its name is violent, while strumming it is sure to brighten your day.
The instrument actually played a central role in helping to revitalize Canada’s music programs, as it was an inexpensive way to introduce students to music, and was incredibly practical to teach and foster musical literacy. The Doane program, named for its creator J. Chalmers Doane, and during its time it taught nearly 50,000 children to love and play the ukulele. While the Doane program has ended, it has a legacy that is headed by James Hill in coordination with the original Doane.
It’s right there in the name my friend! Go out, get a ukulele to call your very own, and start playing! With its bright tone and cheerful disposition you’re sure to bring joy to everyone around you, even if they’re just laughing along with you as you try to pick out a tune. The great thing is even the worst musician sounds amazing on a Ukulele… Well… As long as you don’t listen too close.

I am so excited to let all my readers know that Kwik Stix can now be found at BJ's! There is a BJ's ten minutes from my house and I feel the need to go check it out now. The 24 pack is for sale for $19.99 and includes 12 Classic colors, 6 Neon colors, and 6 Metalix colors. That is a great price and just in time for the upcoming holidays. Kwik Stix would make a great present for kids, grandkids, nieces and nephews, and friends.
It is not a secret that we love our Kwik Stix. We were first introduced to them a little over a year ago and they have become the kids' favorite art medium. Earlier this year we added the Thin Stix to our arsenal and have had fun with both sets in our art journals.
Here are just a few of the art projects the kids have used Kwik Stix for lately.
This is a donkey's jacket.
A love note from one of the kids to me.
Miles loves to be impressionistic at times.
A spring tree. Or maybe a fall tree. A tree with Christmas balls? Whatever it is, I like it!

Bottle 33 cl / Bier-bienne (CH). Dark brown beer with enticing fragances of chocolate, coffee, vanilla, roasted grain and ashes. The taste is similar with cocoa on toast, a slight acidity and bitter notes of roasted, pine and earth, a little powdery. Sturdy, tasty but without heaviness.
Bottle sample at The Festival in Atlanta. Dark brown color beige head. Aroma of earthy chocolate, subtle vanilla. Taste is dark chocolate, coffee. Lots of flavor for this abv.

The company Oukitel introduced a new budget smartphone Oukitel U25 Pro. The company continues to surprise consumers with budget smartphones. The Oukitel U25 Pro is not an exception too. Its price is very affordable just $139.94 on GearBest store. The device boasts a sleek design with thin frames and no cut-out in Full HD-screen, gradient color of the case, convenient USB Type-C connector and dual camera. The entire front panel is covered with 2.5 D glass with rounded edges that flow into the metal frame. The reverse side of the gadget is glossy and is available in two colors: dark gray and gradient purple with the transition to black. There is also a dual main camera with LED flash and a fingerprint scanner.
Oukitel U25 Pro got a 5.5-inch display from LG with Full HD resolution and a classic 16: 9 aspect ratio, covered with toughened Asahi glass. The eight-core MediaTek MT6750T processor with a maximum frequency of 1.5 GHz and 4 GB of RAM is responsible for the performance, which should be enough for ordinary tasks of the phone. 64 GB is available for data storage with the possibility of expansion. The device is running Android 8.1 Oreo with a minimum number of add-ons.
The dual main camera is represented by Sony IMX135 13-megapixel sensor and 2-megapixel auxiliary module for shooting in portrait mode. The resolution of the front camera was 5 MP. For the autonomy of the device meets the battery at 3200 mAh, which is charged via a symmetrical USB Type-C connector.
The display is covered with tempered glass from the manufacturer Asahi, which protects it during shocks. Additional protection is given by a frame made of aluminum alloy, and the back glossy polycarbonate panel is made with rounding on four sides, for a more comfortable holding in the hand. There are two color solutions: nowadays trendy gradient black-violet and classic black. On the back panel, it is located a dual camera with a flashlight. Below you can find a fingerprint sensor.
From our standpoint one of the minuses of the U25 Pro is its old screen 16:9 standard aspect ratio with large frames. However, there will be users who will not want to use a phones with large screens. Compact screen size will give an opportunity to use the Oukitel U25 Pro with one hand. The dimensions of OUKITEL U25 Pro are 153.0 x 76.0 x 10.0 mm with the weight of 180g.
Taking into consideration the price of the phone we can say that the screen quality on the OUKITEL U25 Pro is quite good. From the corner to the corner, the screen size is measured in inches. The 5.5-inch IPS electrostatic touch panel including the resolution of 1080 x 1920 px is multi-touchable. The ratio of 16:9, and the density is 401 PPI. IPS technology provides good viewing angles, decent contrast, and bright colors.
OUKITEL U25 Pro smartphone is equipped with a Mediatek MT6750T processor, which ensures a stable working process. The phone runs on 4GB RAM together with Android 8.1 Oreo OS. This allows the users to play games or run multitasks. Even the fact that rating in Antutu is 4 times lower than in the Samsung Galaxy S9, does not prevent OUKITEL U25 Pro to play 3D games and process heavy applications. Using U25 Pro smartphone you can do all the general options which can do an ordinary smartphone without any problems. For instance, play music and video in different formats, receive calls and messages and etc. Moreover, you can play 3D games, for instance, Real Racing 3 and others. The Oukitel U25 Pro has a 4GB RAM, which provides the possibility to execute more than one program or task simultaneously. Talking about the internal memory, it is worth to mention that besides the 64GB memory, in case of need you can increase the memory too. The users can use the slot for microSD card increasing it up to 256GB. In spite of the fact, that MT6750T processor is not one of the latest processors, we did not meet any challenges during the test.
Bluetooth (4.0), GPS/GLONASS. One of the advantages is the availability of Type-C port with fast charging. The OUKITEL U25 Pro have various types of security to unlock the smartphone. First one is an old and traditional way. You can unlock the phone through the pin code, an encrypted code or a snake. The next one is a more convenient and modern way. Using a fingerprint sensor you can unlock the smartphone during a few seconds.
As we have already mentioned the OUKITEL U25 Pro is powered with operating system Android 8.1. It ensures the steady and fluent operation experience for the smartphone. While our testing the smartphone worked steadily and fastly. The OUKITEL U25 Pro smartphone is equipped with 64GB of memory. From that memory, 55GB is available for applications or other files. However in some circumstances when that is not enough, the users can use a slot for a memory card up o 256GB.
Since the OUKITEL U25 Pro smartphone does not support a standard 3.5 mm audio jack headphones, the users can use an adapter from the Type-C port to a 3.5 m audio jack. On the bottom of the smartphone’s back panel is situated the speaker. As it is a budget phone, the users should not expect a high-quality deep sound, however, I want to note that the sound quality is enough clear and powerful(up to 104 decibels). Even in noisy places, you will be able to hear the phone call or messages notifications.
The OUKITEL U25 Pro is equipped with 13-megapixel dual main camera Sony IMX135. The second one is used for blurring the background and has a 2-megapixel sensor. Overall, the quality of the photos is quite satisfactory. Using the main camera you can use a wide angle of shooting at 120 degrees. The photos taken during the day has better quality than the ones which are taken at night. We think that it is normal and acceptable considered the price factor. The manufacturer has installed a 5-megapixel sensor with f/2.0 aperture. Furthermore, in the application, there is a “Selfie Master” function, which can improve the quality of the photos. What about the video!
Manufacturer equipped the smartphone with a video recording function, which has a resolution of Full HD 1080p with 30 frames per second. Also, note that there isn’t a stabilization feature. Thus, the quality of the video is some kind low.
In the standby mode, the users can use the OUKITEL U25 Pro smartphone for several days without charging due to the 3200mAh capacity of the battery. It is a great result!
During an average usage load, the phone works without charging from 1 day to 1.5 days. Also, as we already mentioned earlier, it is really a nice bonus to have a Type-C port with fast charging in such a low-price device. From 0-100% the OUKITEL U25 Pro smartphone can be charged during 1 hour and 40 minutes.
OUKITEL U25 Pro smartphone is a great smartphone for the lovers’ simplicity and useful features. It is a budget phone which s able to perform everyday tasks, play games, and even 3D games.
The camera and video functionalities are satisfying too. The disadvantage of the smartphone is a lack of a standard 3.5 mm audio jack. One of the advantages is the availability of Type-C port and long battery life. Thus, we recommend this smartphone especially for the people who don’t want to pay a high price for the feature-rich phones.
