Goodluck Jonathan key to corruption trial, court says
But officials have made three unsuccessful attempts to serve the former head of state with a summons to appear at the trial of Olisa Metuh, the Federal High Court in Abuja heard.
Metuh is charged with receiving 400 million naira ($1.1 million, 940,000 euros) from Jonathan's national security adviser, Sambo Dasuki.
Dasuki is accused of using some $2 billion in defence funds earmarked for the fight against Boko Haram to help fund Jonathan's re-election bid in 2015.
The Dasuki case is the highest-profile prosecution of President Muhammadu Buhari's campaign against endemic corruption.
Metuh maintains Jonathan was aware of the payment and his lawyer, Emeka Etiaba, said the presence of the former president would determine whether his client had a case to answer.
"We have earlier indicated that former President Goodluck Jonathan is a vital witness in this case.
"We have said that the need for (Metuh) to testify will only arise after we have appraised the evidence that will come from our next witness (Jonathan).
"We submit that it is only when former president Jonathan has testified that we will know whether the defence for the first defendant has been sufficiently made."
Jonathan is not thought to have been questioned about any of the allegations. Etiaba told reporters outside court that it was "not asking for too much" for him to testify.
But prosecutor Sylvanus Tahir said Jonathan's presence "should not be used as a ploy to arm-twist or tie down the hands of the court" and the defence had enough testimony.
An aide to Jonathan told the court bailiff that the ex-president would be available to receive the summons next Monday.
Dasuki, who is also using Jonathan as an alibi, denied illegally channelling the security funds to prominent members of the Peoples Democratic Party when he appeared at the Metuh trial in November.

Benetton Under Fire for Ads Featuring Maritime Rescues
Italian fashion house United Colors of Benetton came under fire this week for repurposing two photos of maritime migrant rescue operations for an advertising campaign. The adapted images appeared in print in the Italian daily La Repubblica and in online form.
The first image depicts a crewmember with NGO rescue group SOS Méditerranée distributing life vests to maritime migrants in an overloaded raft, with the Benetton logo overlaid at bottom right. The NGO said that the image was its own, taken during an operation on June 9, and added that it did not consent to the commercial use of its photos.
The photographer credited for the image began working with SOS Méditerranée this month, according to his LinkedIn profile. Benetton told Marjorie van Elven of industry outlet FashionUnited that it had obtained the image from the photographer.
The SOS Méditerranée image as adapted by Benetton (SOS Méditerranée / Kenny Karpov / Benetton / social media)
"SOS Méditerranée fully dissociates itself from this campaign, which displays a picture taken while our teams were rescuing people in distress at sea," the rescue NGO said in a statement. "The human tragedy at stake in the Mediterranean must never be used for any commercial purposes."
Italian Interior Minister Matteo Salvini, the hard-right leader who recently rejected SOS Méditerranée's request to bring the migrants depicted in the image to an Italian port, also expressed his disapproval of Benetton's ad campaign. "Am I the only one to find this shabby?" he wrote in a social media post.
The Benetton-branded version of the SOS Méditerranée photo has been removed from Benetton's Twitter account. A similar image taken by a news agency photographer remains posted.
EU debates question of migrants' destination
The controversy comes as the leaders of nine EU nations prepare to meet in Brussels for "informal talks" on Europe's ongoing migration crisis. Italy and Greece receive the majority of EU maritime migrant arrivals, as they are closest to the main points of departure, and their leaders have called for other EU nations to take on a larger share of the burden of hosting asylum applicants. Italy's newly-elected government, led by the anti-immigration League party, has banned arrivals aboard foreign-flag vessels and encouraged rescue ships to take passengers to other countries.
The policies to be discussed at Sunday's meeting are likely to include the expansion of Frontex, the EU's new border agency, and new penalties and border controls to deter asylum-seekers from traveling from one EU nation to another. According to a draft statement, the group will consider measures to reduce "secondary movements" by cutting down on "unlawful crossing of internal borders between Member States by irregular migrants and asylum seekers and by ensuring swift readmissions by the competent Member State."
The proposed measures are widely seen as an effort by German chancellor Angela Merkel to preserve the support of Germany's Christian Social Union (CSU) party, her coalition partner in government. Horst Seehofer, the leader of the CSU and Germany's interior minister, has promised to block migrants at Germany's Schengen-zone borders if the EU cannot come up with its own plan. "I would immediately order the police that people who either have prohibition of entry or prohibition of stay should be immediately turned away at the border," he warned on Monday.

Along with the electronic organ I have in my basement came a file box packed with organ music. The previous owner of this organ, an accompanist for at least forty years at West Sayville Reformed Bible Church, had been a subscriber to Lorenz's The Organ Portfolio since 1963. This bi-monthly magazine contains about a dozen organ arrangements for prelude, offertory, and postlude in each issue. Needless to say, I probably have enough organ music to last me well into my old age.
Over the past few years I've gotten a bit more familiar with the contents of this magazine. Besides the musical entries, each issue usually includes an article on some aspect of organ playing—from technique to humor. Especially in the earlier volumes, there are so many helpful tips and tidbits that I could probably find an entire college course in organ performance between its pages.
Since Lorenz is by no means a Reformed music company, the selection of The Organ Portfolio is sometimes weak when it comes to the psalms. However, our organist made painstaking notes on the front pages of many of the arrangements, in which she marked instances of Psalter Hymnal tunes and included directions for adapting the music to our worship services, along with the dates on which she had played each piece. On one page I found this formidable assortment (click to enlarge):
As you can plainly see, this is quite an extensive set of notes—and I didn't even include the pencil marks within the score! I'm so grateful to have not only this valuable set of organ music, but also the heritage and expertise of a seasoned organist at my disposal. I'm sure it will not go to waste.
"So," you might ask, "are you recommending that we all purchase subscriptions to The Organ Portfolio now?" Perhaps not, but I'd still like to at least mention this resource.
After a bit of research on Lorenz's website, I've come to the unfortunate conclusion that the quality of their music has generally waned over the past few decades. From a glance at the 2011 Organ Portfolio index, one can notice that the publication's selection of hymn tunes is limited and predictable—"Fairest Lord Jesus," "Hosanna, Loud Hosanna," "Crown Him with Many Crowns," &c.—while the magazine's editors are fond of including myriads of virtually unknown pieces from modern organ composers. (I consider this kind of music undesirable for reasons I explained in a previous post, "The Significance of Service Music.")
On the other hand, if you're willing to sort through the reams of music The Organ Portfolio entails, it's entirely likely you'll find some gems for preludes, offertories, and postludes. For instance, you could repurpose "Hosanna, Loud Hosanna" as "Jehovah Reigns in Majesty" (Psalm 99) and "Crown Him with Many Crowns" as "Within Thy Temple, Lord" (Psalm 48). Some of the Bach chorales based on psalms or hymns could serve as exquisite "special occasion" service music. And regardless of their suitability for corporate worship, all of the selections are excellent practice pieces.
My recommendation, then, is simply this: Check your organ bench or the music storage area at your church for back issues of The Organ Portfolio or some of its sibling publications, The Organist and The Sacred Organ Journal. If you can find a few, you'll probably be able to mine some valuable treasure from their depths—especially if they're older issues. I close with an excerpt from an essay by L. N. Porter in the April, 1965 issue of The Organ Portfolio, entitled "Feeling Versus Technique."
Music that the members like and understand may be the right kind, but what feelings does it stir up? If it is aspiration, exaltation, contemplation, or other such notable attitudes that lend themselves to worship, well and good. If on the other hand, it is earthly sentiment, physical ease, associations with nonreligious experience, then the music is not fulfilling its function as an inspirer of worship. Yes, this is a very difficult line to define; no wonder that some of our austere denominations frown on any music with 'feeling'!…
Technique does have its place, and an important one it is! If our fingers and feet are not well enough trained in organ technique to play correctly service music such as hymns, anthem accompaniments, and organ solos, we shall make mistakes, we shall fumble, and what will be the result? We shall make the congregation conscious of the music as an end in itself instead of as a means of leading people to worship. One might go so far as to say that the best church music is that which the congregation never hears, for it has served to elevate their thoughts to heights above our present level, beyond our senses. Poor technique, with its inevitable mistakes and slovenly style, will keep the congregation earth-bound.
So, I still urge you to work to improve your technique, for it is when these routines are mastered that we can best fulfill our function as a church organist—the all-important function of leading the congregation to worship.

To celebrate World Book Day earlier this year, we also donated a £100 book voucher to help the school's Carnegie Book Award shadowing group. With the number of students at Beaumont School increasing over the years, pupils have struggled to find a space to socialise during lunch and break periods. Thanks to our contribution towards the new benches, the school has created an outdoor seating area for pupils to enjoy, particularly in the summer months. Each year the school shadows the Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals Carnegie Medal, which is considered to be the most prestigious young adult book award. From March to June, members of the Shadowing Group meet to discuss eight books which are shortlisted for the award. The £100 book voucher donation has enabled the school to purchase 15 copies of the books and a custom-made, commemorative bookplate has been placed in each copy. Commenting on the donation, Martin Atkinson, Headteacher at Beaumont School, said: "We can't thank Taylor Wimpey enough for their generous donation. Our student numbers have increased rapidly over the years so we needed to make more space on the playground for them during their lunch breaks. The donation has helped us transform our playground into a friendly social space where our pupils can enjoy their lunch. "The book voucher donation was also lovely to receive, as reading is a great way to fire up a child's imagination and teach them about the world around them. On behalf of everyone at Beaumont School, I'd like to say a massive thank you to Taylor Wimpey for all of their support." Nikki Gibson, Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey North Thames, said: "We were delighted to contribute to the making of Beaumont School's new social space. The benches have made a great addition and we also hope that the students enjoy their collection of new books too. "We do more than just build high-quality homes. Being also to give something back to the local communities in which we build means a great deal to us. It's great to hear that our donation has been put to good use and I'm sure that all of the students will make the most of their new seating area over the coming months."

The etymology of the word is interesting because of course, the French word for bread is pain. And that bears no resemblance to boulangerie. It turns our that the word boulangerie mean 'ball' and 'bun' and traces its meaning back to an even older word meaning to 'swell' or 'inflate'. And it is related to the English word 'bowl' as well. This means, of course, that in its original meaning, a boulangerie was a bun maker, or perhaps a maker of round loaves. SKU: C0003 Related products Totem Restaurant Fashion Folk Dance Taj Mahal

New honing tool arrived.
Looks like the trick with the brass insert worked. All honed. Wasn't sure wether to add oil or not so didn't in the end. The stones wore down fairly quickly but I achieved the end result I needed.
The hub was heated up with a heat gun for a couple of minutes then it slipped on the crank snout with out to much effort. Once cold the fit was what I would expect. Damper bolt fitted and torqued to 90ft/lbs.
Damper installed, 6 bolts torqued to 16ft/lbs. Bolts use a T40 Torq bit. Installed timing pointer.
There are three bolts for the crank pulley. My old pulley set had four holes, so now have to re-drill the pulley!

Good to know the brass behaved itself.
Re-drilled the crank pulley and fitted.
Then got out the bead roller. Just as well I didn't start straight on the seat panels as the roller needed a lot of tweaking before the beads were anywhere near even and the ally not getting chewed up.
Decided on a 1/2" bead for the seats and door panels.
First trials! This will defo need two people to do, one to turn the rollers and me to feed the work.
Finally got the bead even.
Just got to find the courage to put a real panel in there now!
Last edited by fabphil; 19-05-19 at 02:39 PM.
Good luck with that. Always looks so easy when someone who knows what they are doing shows you but as an amateur, it just seems like sorcery.
The short bead
Any chance of fabricating an end plate to fit a starter motor or similar that could turn the rollers for you?
Got some play time today. Started on the roof switch panel.
This has to house all the usual switches lights, wipers, de-mist fan, brake level warning light and test switch plus all the aux switches for the nitrous, fuel pumps, cooling fans etc. Also has the radio, nitrous computer and trans and oil temp gauges.
Started off using the folder to get the basic shape then a lot of drilling, cutting and filing to get all the holes correct. The three holes in the back are for the BMW de-mist fan (BIVA requirement).
Cut and folded the end pieces.
Riveted into place.
Fitted all the kit.
The blower fan is the smallest I could find to fit, its the rear screen de-mist from a BMW cabriolet. Works like a small hairdryer, no water required.
Just remember that all edges need to be 2.5mm radius and no sharp bits. Sticking tape or foam over bits doesn't pass now.
Would like to know how the electric heater does for demisting as I have another kitcar that is air cooled and the heating to the screen is crap, if that set up works on your ride then maybe two of them would do for the screen I have.

A history of paying your debts punctually and positive credit ratings will make it possible to get a lower interest rate on an unsecured lending option. You should be in the position to be eligible for a rate as low as 5 to 6 percent with excellent credit scores. If you've got less than perfect credit ratings, you may not get accepted. Or maybe your rates could be as much as 20% which might not help your circumstances.Read More
For those with very poor credit, collateral will likely be required, or you may borrow with your home equity. But then again, the chances of approval may not be good or the interest rates might be excessive. In such cases, you may need to choose alternative methods to address your financial debt problems.
Your Credit Score Will Have An Effect On Your Ability to Get an Unsecured Personal Lending option
If you have an unhealthy credit standing, it's not likely that any reputable lender will give you an unsecured personal loan. Folks that do manage to get approval, can get extremely high, expensive interest rates. Actually, you may find yourself with an unbelievable rate of interest with a loan shark. The lending company recognizes that you aren't as likely to repay what you owe promptly if you've got poor credit. Maxing out your credit lines can also be associated with unfavorable credit ratings.
So when a loan company examines your credit history and score, they won't like to accept your risky history. For this reason you're going to be paying substantial fees and interest rates if you get approval for the lending option. This is how the loan provider makes sure that they're being compensated for the financial risk that they are accepting with you.
Should you manage to receive an unsecured personal lending option with a low credit score, you still will not be able to reach your goals because of these substantial service fees and rates of interest. You may be looking at a rate of interest of 19-29%. With a rate of interest of 29%, you will be forking over $29 for each $100 on the loan. It could be wiser to discover alternative methods of help with your debt.
Unsecured Personal Lending options and Credit Report
If you submit an application for a lending option, financial institutions will do a credit check. Financial institutions are not likely to assist you without checking your credit score to start with. Your credit report demonstrates just how well you have dealt with your credit in the past. That lets the lending company see how likely you are to pay your loan repayments punctually.
Anybody that is offered a sizable loan with no credit check required should be worried about the financial institution. Or they will charge you a ridiculous rate or charge lots of fees that after you repay it, you may pay off 2-3x what you originally borrowed. Does this look like a great deal right now? If you would like a fair loan offer, you have to let them examine your credit score.
It might not be the right time for you to look for financing if your credit score is bad. Legitimate loan companies need you to have good credit for financing. Many people haven't any credit history at all, and they are likewise less likely to get a loan. Hence you'll want to develop your credit report to make your loan request more desirable to loan providers down the road.
What About Guaranteed Approval?
When you are trying to find financing, you'd feel good if your potential lender offered "guaranteed approval" right? It appears as if all you need to do is make an application and you can be okayed for that loan. It appears like a fantastic opportunity. Before you decide to leap at the opportunity, look into what it suggests.
Consider what type of loan provider might promise guaranteed approval on a personal bank loan. I have not heard about a lot of loan companies that can promise to agree to a loan request without looking for verification of income or credit history. Think about someone with no income at all? Should an honest lender guarantee their acceptance for a loan? There will be too much risk for a loan provider if they offered to promise a loan acceptance without knowing of your finances.
That is why you should not count on assured acceptance of a loan from any kind of honest loan company. The lender needs to evaluate your finances, including your earnings and past financial obligations and credit score. Before they can determine whether you're a good candidate for a borrowing arrangement, they will need to calculate your income to debt percentage. It certainly won't be as detailed of an assessment as a home financing request but they will need to observe that you can maintain your existing obligations and also this newer loan or credit line too.
Lots of loan companies offer a pre-approval or pre-qualified status to help you see just how likely you may get approved before doing a serious inquiry on your credit history. They do this by doing a soft pull on your consumer credit that will not affect your credit rating. When it comes to unsecured personal loans, it's as close to a guaranteed approval as possible with a legitimate loan company.
What Amount Must you Get?
If you're trying to find an unsecured loan, you'll need to ask yourself how much you intend to receive. Many loan providers have loans for as low as $1K while some have the minimum lending option of $5K. The maximum loan amount can vary by loan company, also.
Many loan companies will let you obtain as much as $35K whereas others will let you be lent up to $40,000. Moreover, they will offer you more time to pay back these larger lending options which gives you a lesser payment but possibly a higher overall interest expense.
A higher monthly payment will help you to settle your debt sooner at significantly less cost for you. The right thing to do is to think about your own funds and evaluate various monthly payment alternatives. Bear in mind that it can be difficult to pay back the financing, so do not obtain more than you require.
You could be in a position to get $100,000 with your Madison, Alabama unsecured personal loan, though if you really need $50,000, then you shouldn't look for more than that. Think about all of the solutions, including the fees, installments, and interest.
How Difficult can it be to Receive an Unsecured Personal Loan?
How challenging it is to get an unsecured personal loan will depend on many variables. Should you fulfill the financial institution's loan requirements then you shouldn't have a hard time being qualified for a loan. Inadequate credit ratings and little income can make it much harder. Without having great credit standing you can't expect to get the cheapest rates of interest marketed. You can expect to pay higher rates and have to present more proof of income if you have poor to average credit ratings.
Secured lending options involve collateral, so they are much easier to receive than unsecured loans. But generally unsecured financial loans will not be hard to get for those who meet their minimal credit rating and income source standards. If you can't meet the loan provider requirements now you can concentrate on developing your consumer credit or improving your income in the next six to twelve months and apply once more. Loan companies want to see prompt monthly payments and credit lines that aren't maxed. If you would like an unsecured loan with a reasonable rate and monthly payment, these are generally the factors to work on.
Unsecured Loans and Personal Credit Card Debt
More than likely your credit card rate of interest is not less than 12-15%. It's probably nearer to 19-23% and this is even if you have decent credit scores. Right now, loan companies can finance from the government with rates near 0%. Then, they ask you for a much, higher Interest rate.
You could do something about this with only a small amount of effort. You could avoid high credit card rates of interest by looking for marketplace loan providers who want to grow their businesses by lending at a reasonable rate. You could quickly repay your credit card debt with a lower rate unsecured loan. Particularly if you could qualify for a lending option with an interest rate that can begin as low as 5.99%. Find out just how much you'll save each month by evaluating your current rates to that.
Another benefit to unsecured personal loans is that they usually have a fixed term instead of credit cards that go on indefinitely. So this gives you a fixed payment and may have you paying off your high interest rate consumer credit card debt in as low as 24 months dependant upon the loan duration you choose.
If you're fed up with paying for high interest rates and fees to your credit card issuers, consider the various newer unsecured loan offers from newer online loan providers which have lower service fees and more competing interest rates.
Examining Loan providers for Unsecured Loans in MADISON
Many Madison, Alabama people want to acquire an unsecured loan, despite low income and/or less-than-perfect credit. However, you cannot get a loan with a lower APR from a respected lender if you've got a reputation for neglected monthly payments or little income.

For those who do qualify, there are great unsecured personal loan services, like Lightstream and Lending Club, to look into. They have the best interest rates and cheapest fees you'll find anywhere. Lending Club offers lending options as low as $1K to as much as $40K and their interest rates are as little as 5.99% and up to 35.89% APR.

Where under a contract the accused was required by the complainant to print and hand over certain number of books without entrustment of manuscript, papers or any other material with the accused and the accused in breach of the contract did not make available certain number of books, there was no criminal breach of trust. At the best there was a breach of contract which is a dispute civil in nature.
(K.L. Sachdeva, New Delhi v. Rakesh Kumar Jain, Varanasi, 1983 All. L.J. 1087). The prosecution in cases of criminal breach of trust has to prove three things: (i) That the accused was a public servant; (ii) That he in such capacity was entrusted with the property in question or dominion over it and (iii) That he committed the criminal breach of trust.

In the case of criminal breach of trust, once it is shown that money was entrusted to the accused or was received by him for a particular purpose was not used for that purpose, and the same was not returned by him in accordance with his duty or if he failed to account for it, he will be presumed to have misappropriated the same. In every case, the prosecution is not under obligation to prove the manner of misappropriation or conversion to his own use by the accused, the property entrusted to him. When the accused does not discharge the trust, in consequence of which he comes to have dominion over the property, then the misappropriation can legitimately be inferred against him. (State of Punjab v. Rattan Chand, 1984 Cri. L.J.
, NOC. 153, Punj. & Hry.) The word "entrustment" connotes that the person holds the property in a fiduciary capacity. There can be no breach of trust when there has been no entrustment or dominion of the property on trust.
There must be dishonest misappropriation or .conversion to his own use of dishonest using or disposing of that property. If it is done in good faith there is no criminal breach of trust before criminal breach of trust by a partner is established it must be shown that the person charged has been entrusted with property or with dominion over the property.
In other words the offence of criminal breach of trust under S. 406 of the Penal Code is not in respect of property belonging to the partnership but is an offence committed by the person in respect of property which has been specially entrusted to such a person and which he holds in a fiduciary capacity. [Debabrata Gupta v. S.K.
Ghosh, (1971)1 S.C.I. 134]. Illustrations: (a) A, being executor to the will of a deceased person, dishonestly disobeys the law which directs him to divide the effects according to the will and appropriates them to his own use.
A has committed criminal breach of trust; (b) A is a warehouse keeper. Z, going on a journey, entrusts his furniture to A under a contract that it shall be returned on payment of a stipulated sum for warehouse- room. A dishonestly sells the goods. A has committed criminal breach of trust, (c) A, residing in Calcutta, is an agent for Z, residing at Delhi. There is an express or implied contract between A and Z that all sums remitted by Z to A shall be invested by A, according to Z's direction.
Z remits a lack of rupees to A, with directions to A to invest the same in Company's paper. A dishonestly disobeys the directions and employs the money in his own business. A has committed criminal breach of trust, (d) But if A, in the last illustration, not dishonestly but in good faith believing that it will be more for Z's advantage to hold shares in the Bank of Bengal for Z, instead of buying Company's paper, here, though Z should suffer loss, and should be entitled to bring a civil action against A, on account of that loss, yet A, not having acted dishonestly, has not committed criminal breach of trust, (e) A, revenue officer, is entrusted with public money and is either directed by law, or bound by a contract, express or implied, with the Government, to pay into a certain treasury all the public money which he holds.
A dishonestly appropriates the money. A has committed criminal breach of trust, (f) A, a carrier, is entrusted by Z with property to be carried by land or by water. A dishonestly misappropriates the property.
A has committed breach of trust. (a) Theft and Criminal Breach of Trust: In the former there is a wrongful taking of a movable property out of the possession of the owner, i.e., by stealth without the owner's knowledge, but in the latter the property is given on trust or received on one's behalf and instead of discharging the trust, it is dishonestly misappropriated or used or disposed of in violation of the law. The owner here parts with something in good faith but the person who takes it keeps the thing for himself.
In theft there is no prior lawful possession; the offences is completed as soon as the property is dishonestly taken away, but in criminal breach of trust the offender prior to the offence is himself in possession of the property and the offence is completed when he dishonestly converted the same to his own use. Then in theft the property involved is a movable property, but in criminal breach of trust it may be any property. Criminal breach of trust is ordinarily punished with the same severity as theft, but where there is a greater degree of trust as in the case of a carrier, or a clerk or a servant entrusted with his master's property or in the case of a public servant or banker, heavier punishment is provided under Sections 407, 408 and 409, 1.P.C. (b) Criminal misappropriation and Criminal Breach of Trust: 1. In criminal misappropriation the property comes into the possession of the offender by some casualty or otherwise, and he afterwards misappropriates it. In the case of criminal breach of trust the offender is lawfully entrusted with the property and he dishonestly misappropriates the same, or willfully suffers any other person to do so, instead of discharging the trust attached to it.
(Ratan Lai). 2. In criminal misappropriation there is no contractual relationship, but there is such a relationship in criminal breach of trust 3. In criminal misappropriation there is the conversion of property coming into possession of the offender anyhow, but in criminal breach of trust there is the conversion of property held in fiduciary Offences against Property character. 4. A breach of trust includes criminal misappropriation, but the converse is not always true.

Warbonnet Outdoors Scandanavian Wooki XL Under Quilt WarbonnetWebLink
Scandinavian Wooki provided to this writer for testing and review. Hereafter referred to as "Scandi" for ease of noting. There were comparisons made in terms of temp rating, weight, and size between the Scandi and the 3 Season XL Wooki which this reviewer already possessed. In all cases the under quilts were stuffed in the sacks which came with them and mounted to a Warbonnet Blackbird XLC hammock as they were intended to be used with. Additionally for anecdotal information, both Wooki sizes were mounted to an 11′ gathered end, integrated bug net hammock crafted by another cottage vendor. The Wooki XL size will mount almost perfectly to at least the particular 11' gathered end integrated bug net hammock that I had made recently. This is good information as even if you do not possess a Warbonnet Blackbird XLC hammock, you can still purchase and use a Wooki under quilt!
Published details:
Temperature rating -20°F
Fill weight: 19.5oz
Item weight: 31.5oz
Fabric: 20D Ripstop Nylon, DWR (Durable Water Resistant)
850 fill Hyper-Dry DWR goose down
Coverage area: 44″ wide x 76″ long
Upon opening the box, it was noted that the Scandi Wooki had a large volume compared to the 3 Season Wooki. It practically sprung out of the box. It was compressed quite a bit and when fluffed and left to stand it lofted considerably more. My measured weight of the Scandi was 31.4oz so the manufacturer's weight was within a ½ and ounce.
The sack it stuffs in measured 6x6x18" stuffed. As seen in the pictures, this was close to twice the size as the 3 Season Wooki. One plans to carry or drag more gear when winter camping, so I don't see this as any issue at all. More loft in your insulation is needed to keep warm when the temps drop and the Wooki certainly has more loft than any of the other Wooki under quilts available!
Both in their respective stuff sacks
The 3 season Wooki
The Scandi Wooki
Unfortunately by the time I received the Scandi, our weather here in Maine had warmed up considerably. While waiting for it to arrive we had two nights at -19° and one at -24° which would have really tested the Scandi. I spent one night at -1° outside with the Scandi and a Loco Libre Ghost Pepper 0° top quilt which was the lowest temp i had ever slept out in. I was toasty warm all night apart from a little chill in my foot area. I would say the Scandi had plenty more insulation to get me even colder no problem. Given that I have been down to 12° with my 20° Wooki, my guess is that Scandi will at least go to -20°. With any winter use, there are condensation issues and i did notice condensation on the bottom of the Scandi one slightly warmer morning. I believe it was 33° air temp that morning and a little foggy which would make sense. I hung the Scandi up inside and it dried out quickly as the condensation was only surface dampness.
With any insulation it is advised to air out after any camping trip and storage should be either hanging loose in a closet or in a large cotton sack that does not compress the under or top quilt. I do wish that the Wooki under quilts came with a large cotton storage sack for long term storage like many other vendors provide. I made large sacks from breathable fabric for our three 3 Season Wooki's which is quite easy to do.
The Warbonnet Scandinavian Wooki Under Quilt is designed for cold weather hammock camping. At a rating of -20F, it is for the serious cold weather camper or someone who plans to camp right around 0F who gets cold easy. I am confident it would keep me warm to sub zero temps no problem with proper top insulation and a good tarp with doors to block wind. One thing I learned in all this cold weather hanging is NOT to wear too much clothing! Your tendency is to want to layer clothes when you go to bed but what that does is negate the insulation properties of your quilts! I learned this the hard way of course, but only out back and I had to get up at 5am for work anyways, so I never got that cold. I would advise wearing thin polypro under clothes and fleece or wool socks and most importantly a hat to insulate your head. Let the downy goodness under and over you do it's job and insulate you!
As I said above, the Wooki under quilts are specifically designed for Warbonnet's BlackBird and XLC hammocks with their foot boxes and shelves all integrated in. BUT, it appears the Wooki UQ's will work with appropriate sized gathered end hammocks. 10' and 11' respectively.
The benefit to both the BlackBird hammocks and the Wooki under quilts is that they just work perfect right out of the box. If you watch Warbonnet's setup videos and follow the suggestions on just how to hang the hammocks and UQ's, you should get a great night's sleep with little to no tweaking of the setup. I know our three complete setups go up with no problem every time which is why we chose the Warbonnet system! They also provide a complete selection of tarps for weather cover as well. Everything from small ultra light weight backpacking tarps to full hex tarps with doors for winter use. We had our tarps custom made by another cottage vendor, but I would without hesitation purchase a Warbonnet tarp if the need arose or if you are buying a whole system from one place you could do it all at Warbonnet!

Thank you all for reading! Now get out there and HANG!!

June rains boost kharif sowing1 min read . Updated: 04 Jul 2015, 10:26 AM IST
Sowing of summer crop overin30millionhectarestilldate, 57%morethan last year
New Delhi: Ample rain in June has helped farmers sow more crops compared with last year, farm ministry data showed on Friday.
Sowing of summer crops have been completed in over 30 million hectares till date, 57% more than the area sown by this time last year.
The spike in this year's sowing is due to good rain in June and the fact that last year saw a mostly dry June.
Till 25 June this year, the southwest monsoon was 28% more than the long-period average.
Since then, it has weakened, and the week between 26 June and 1 July recorded a 14% deficit.
Till Friday, the monsoon was 7% more than normal for the entire country (1 June to 3 July).
The June-November kharif crop season is critically dependent on the progress and spread of the southwest monsoon as over half of the farm land in India lacks assured irrigation.
Although sowing has been completed in over 30 million hectares, it is less than one-third of the normal sowing area of 105 million hectares.
The progress of sowing will, therefore, depend on showers during July and August, which, the government forecaster said, will be deficient.
For the entire monsoon season between June and September, the India Meteorological Department, or IMD, has predicted a 12% deficit, stoking fears of crop-loss and inflation.
Data released by the agriculture ministry show that rice, the main kharif crop, has been planted in 5.4 million hectares, marginally higher than the 5.3 million hectares sown by this time last year.
But the sowing of pulses, oilseeds and cotton has surpassed last year's numbers.
Pulses have been sown in 2.26 million hectares so far, more than double the 0.97 million hectares sown by this time last year.
The high acreage under pulses could be on account of farmers taking a signal from the soaring prices in the market.
Similarly, oilseeds have been sown in 7.4 million hectares, more than five times the area sown by this time last year.
The area under coarse cereals is at nearly 4.4 million hectares, compared with 2.9 million hectares last year.
Area under cotton has also shot up, from 3.5 million hectares last year to 6 million hectares this year.

|October 1, 1853 to October 31, 1853
|NEW CASTLE, Delaware
|African-Americans, Race-Relations, Slavery
|"Rise And Fall of the Slave South," University of Virginia
|No votes.
In 1852, revisions to the Constitution were placed before the legislature of Delaware. The revisions proposed many new Democratic' ideals that would have gotten rid of many institutions such as life tenure for judges and the need to have property in order to vote. The Whigs who said it was unconstitutional and the Democrats who thought that it did not propose enough change rejected the Constitution. It was formally defeated in October of 1853 by a referendum in which every county in the state of Delaware voted against it. The main reason it failed in Delaware was because a popular senator, James Bayard (Democrat), told the public that it was too weak. If Bayard could have written the constitutional revisions they would have led to the end of slavery and allowed free blacks to gain citizenship.
The debate over the Constitution was a catalyst in the demise of the Whig Party. During the fall of 1853, the leaders from the North and the South did not communicate well. Both northern and southern Whigs thought that they were each above reproach and the people of North Carolina noted this. Many North Carolinians according to the Wilmington Journal disliked the arrogance that the Whigs allegedly exuded. Southern Whigs were wary of the northern Whigs and there attitudes towards slavery. They feared that the disparity in their views on slavery would hurt not only the Whig party, but the interests of the South.

Children Fighting Cancer Create Allegorical Animation 'ZOUA'
Artistes Pour Rêver (Artists for Dreams) and Toronto-based Switch VFX & Animation have wrapped production of a unique animated short, titled ZOUA. This first of its kind project brings to life a story and characters conceived by a group of 10 children in Switzerland currently battling cancer.
Premiering September 22 at a AJAFEC (www.ajafec.ch) charity event in the kids' hometown of Porrentruy, the film will be used as a tool to raise money for associations affiliated with cancer support and research while raising awareness of childhood cancer.
An additional charity event is to be held in Los Angeles to benefit the Leukemia Research Foundation; the date and location is to be confirmed.
"Our greatest hope is that ZOUA will inspire hospitals and organizations to provide more creative activities for children who are battling cancer and other diseases" says Artistes Pour Rêver Producer Tiziana Giammarino. "We were thrilled to be able to use the power of film to provide moments of escape and surround these brave children with magic and a world where everything is possible"
The film centers on a young hero named Zoua, a special boy who lives on a deserted island. Even though he is great friends with the local animals, he longs more than anything to live where he can play with other children.
"From the beautiful imaginations of these children, through their clever story arc and onto paper with their crayons, we at Switch are honored to have played a small role in bringing this heartwarming project to the screen" reflects Pete Denomme, Executive Producer at Switch VFX & Animation.

But, last year, while writing a blog for my classroom, I realised I missed my own piece of blog-land. I have still been keeping up with reading blogs, and pinning projects on pinterest. Now I feel like getting back into the blog game. One of my resolutions for 2013 is to make time to craft more. Teaching is one of those jobs where there is a never-ending to-do list and I realised that I needed to let go of some things and be content that everything will not always get done.
Last year I enjoyed reading Clare's "52 Things I Made" series on Green Valley Crafts and so I've decided to do a similar series here to try and get me blogging regularly again. I think 52 things is a bit ambitious, so I'm aiming for 26. One per fortnight. And to start me off, here are the first two, knitted for my future niece or nephew (who was born yesterday and turned out to be a boy, so the cardigan has gone to the "baby gifts" box).

text: Dancing, in my eyes dancing is not a sport. For me, dancing is art, a passion that has accompanied me since my childhood and has casted a spell over me. A possibility to express yourself, to get to know yourself in an utterly new way and to be able to slip into different roles. An own language that is able to delight, delectate or shock other people. She can bring people to thoughts, she can make them angry or sad. However she can also make them happy. She can move people. Dance can move people not only physically but also emotionally. When you dance you move, from place to place, from top to bottom, you move your arms, your legs, your feet, but most of all you move something within yourself. Everybody that has ever danced even only at a party has surely had the pleasure to experience this sensation of fun, this feeling of freedom and levity. This is exactly my goal. Being able to reach people through dance and to move with joy, physically as well as mentally. To experience every kind of movement with joy. Movement moves. Movement brings joy. MOVEMENT IS ....THE JOY OF MOVEMENT

Stonecircle Seven Sleepers
(lyrics by D. Jole/music by G. Schoemaker) Red mists of the morning Rise from the battleground. Red sun on the water, Weeping without sound. Silent wind blows empty On blackened rock and bone. Fields of grass are shining glass. The ravens softly moan. They're trying to CHORUS Wake the seven sleepers, Deep within their cave When the fire comes, burns everyone, Who will dig your grave? Wake the ancient huntsman, Don't let dead dogs lie. Hunt with the red-eared hounds of hell, Ride screaming through the sky. Children of the warriors, World crumbling at their feet, Can't drink the blackened water, Can't eat the burning wheat. Men are out a-hunting To win the dragon's claws, But steel knives and empty lives Can't save them from its jaws. Their screams will CHORUS Fields and hills lie barren, Plows rusting on their sides. Mighty ships lie empty, Rotting in the tide. Curtains flutter softly, Like moths against a light. Women turn from cities burned And vanish from our sight. They're going to CHORUS

Rendering on Cloud not working - Render comes out white
Gabriel-VW posted a topic in RenderingRendering locally on my computer would render fine but when rendering from the cloud, the image comes out mostly white. Is there a setting or something we're missing? It was previously working fine up until a few days ago and then realized I wasn't the only one with the issue. Using VW 2020. Below you can see rendered locally on the left and without changing any settings, the cloud render on the right.
Is this really the performance one could expect?
MartinBlomberg posted a question in TroubleshootingHonestly, is this what one can expect from VW? Please have a look at the video attached. LINK TO VIDEO: https://photos.app.goo.gl/vCbW8r4R4SMqHK5d8 I'm doing a seating plan for the arena I'm working at. And the file isn't too complex yet, size around 50mb. I've also shot the Task manager as well, so you can stats while I'm cliking about. I'm not doing to much stuff here as you can see, but still really slow. Please let me know why occure and if there's some kind of fix to it. Many Thanks! INFO: VW 2020, SP5, 64-bit Windows 10 Pro CPU: Intel i7 9700 3,00GHz 16GB RAM NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Super
Unrealistic Lumen Output from IES FilesHello, I am attempting to model some fixtures by a manufacturer using their IES files and finding that the light output in FQRW is highly unrealistic. Fixtures don't read at all until I manually set the lumen output to north of 2500 lumens (the environment being a very small office). The IES contained within has a lumen value of 261, which should read fine in a small environment. I currently have the Emitter in Lighting Options set to around 1,400% based on another thread I looked at, but am hoping there is a way to get more lumen-realistic output with these fixtures set at 100% so that I can provide the manufacturer with renders that even somewhat realistically reflect the actual light output of his fixtures. Any thoughts on how I can work these spotlight fixtures to create renders that are accurate to the actual details of the fixture/IES file and not just dialed in by eye? The biggest reason for this is that the manufacturer and I work remotely from each other and I don't always have the chance to use his new products in real life to get a visual sense of how bright they are in space and would love to rely on the data in the IES. Thank You! Office.vwx
3D RENDERINGHi guys, I am trying to render in 3D using open GL but it seems I can only use the solid colour in the attribute palette but unable to choose an image. It does seem to upload when i choose one from the library in the resource manager. My layer option is set to show/snap/modify others and I use only one design layer so surely I must do something wrong? I can render the wall in solid colours but as you see the bricks don't show if I choose the image - Same for the roof! Can someone advise? I am sure it must be something simple which I have not figured out. Thank you
Realistic Vectorworks Renderings
Kretschmer posted a topic in Job BoardI am looking for someone who can help me take a Vectorworks Architect small residential model and create realistic interior and exterior renderings. These renderings would be used in an advertising campaign for my firm. This would be a project for an independent contractor.
Grass Preview in Resource ManagerThe only way to preview grass is to click edit on the texture if you want to see it on a plane? Seems to me it would be very useful to see texture previews on whatever object type you want in the RM (as the editor does): Plane, Sphere, Cube, Flat. Can this be done / am I missing something?
Is the Vectorworks University rendering course completely broken? The downloadable example file is in 2020 format, but the accompanying video appears to be referring to tools and operations that I find completely different in VW2020? For example, I have got as far as the rendering viewports example on a sheet layer. The tutor is asking me to select 'high quality render' in the 'resource browser' palette. Isn't the 'resource browser' now the 'resource manager', and if so, the 'high quality render' option is not one of the resources I can find. I note from the tutor's screen that he is using VW Designer 2016 - a software version that is now 4 years out of date. Isn't this module completely obsolete now? If it is, where can I find some up-to-date resources about this topic?
Hidden Line + Sketch Hidden Line ResultsAm I correct in assuming that every time you update a viewport with a sketch style, it changes the sketch even if the model hasn't changed? Also wondering about how to apply a sketch style (with hidden line) to apply to surface hatches? Hidden Line: Sketch Hidden Line Results (Before Clicking "Update"😞 After Pressing Update (notice results are different and that it doesn't apply to surface hatch?): Pressing Update a fourth time (just for fun):
Diagonal lines in viewport
thinkingpencil posted a topic in General DiscussionHi all. This viewport is rendered background=unshaded polygon. Has anyone experienced the unwanted diagonal lines, indicated in green, attched? Seem to be associated with a re-shaped wall....any comments welcome. Rendering in opengl solves the problem. (I used unshaded polygon because it renders two extrudes semi-transparent, the ones showing existing gables of this extended house.) 200511 GA Tech 1.pdf
Rendering Delay / Hang Up / BugsI've noticed that VW2020 sometimes hangs up when switching render modes, and the expected results are inconsistent. Sometimes, I get the spinning Mac OS ball (VW is unresponsive / hung up), and there's a long delay before the tea kettle displays and then begins to show progress. Since it works this way, it's hard to tell if VW is hanging up (freezing) or just taking its sweet time. I have a decent CPU/GPU and plenty of RAM. Finding these inconsistencies make the tutorial process really difficult because it's hard to know if you're doing something wrong or the program is behaving badly. At the end of this trial and error process, I took Jim's render styles and followed the same debug example below with a very simple file (4x4x4 cube on a small slab and a single light). Everything behaved as expected. So either VW has issues with rendering bigger, complex files, or Jim's tutorial file is bugged somehow. For file consistency and to make sure I'm testing the same situation, I am using an exercise file from the "Rendering in Vectorworks" tutorial, filename "02-renderworks-camera-effects-v01.vwx". The Renderworks styles I refer to (I.e., "Quick" and "High Quality Render" are styles that Jim is using in the tutorial). I am going through the Renderworks modes in Design Layers (not sheet layer viewports). For Fast Renderworks, this doesn't seem to be an issue, but for Final Renderworks, Artistic Renderworks, Hidden Line, Dashed Hidden Line or any of the Polygon settings, there is an issue for render progress and render behavior. If I select "Fast" and then switch to "Final", the tea kettle displays for a moment and then nothing changes. Similarly, if I go from "Artistic" to "Fast" or "Final" nothing changes. If I go from Fast --> High Quality --> Final it works as expected, even if I interrupt High Quality and force a switch to Final. If I work this way, the Final render only takes 30 seconds. Switching to or from hidden line always seems to hang up VW. Other modes hang up based on what mode is currently active. Debug Example: I'm in Open GL and I switch to Renderworks Style --> Quick Render - it works as expected, immediate tea kettle and it takes 43 seconds. Correct! I'm in Quick Render and I switch to Hidden Line - it hangs up for a couple minutes and the render doesn't tell me how long it took. But crazy that it takes longer than Quick Render. Doesn't display "Rendering Complete" text. I'm in Hidden Line and I switch to Renderworks Style --> Quick Render - it hangs up for a couple of minutes and then the render says that it takes 44 seconds. Hmm. I'm in Quick Render and I switch to Fast - it works as expected, immediate tea kettle and it takes 04 seconds I'm in Fast and I switch to Final - it just stays in "Fast" even though "Final" is selected I'm in Final (but it's displaying as Fast) and I switch to Renderworks Style --> Quick Preview - it works as expected, immediate tea kettle and it takes 51 seconds. I'm in Quick and I switch to Final - it works as expected and it takes 45 seconds. Correct! It seems that depending on the file I'm working in, the Final setting has different behaviors and different results. An update tutorial to how the different modes function in VW2020 would be extremely useful. For now, I'm going to use my really really basic file and try to go through Jim's tutorials that way. I sort of expect that there would be some kind of render cache somewhere that needs occasional cleaning for optimization purposes. Could that be it? Or am I fundamentally misunderstanding how rendering works in VW? QA issue? I don't know. It's great that there's a time / progress bar as well, but like the hang up issue, whether or not it functions as expected is inconsistent. Would be great if it showed "Time Remaining" as well...
Cloud Render Issues
LenLindhout posted a question in TroubleshootingHi there, I needed to export a A0 papersize drawing with rendering fast. So I turned to Cloud Services. But I got a major error on the exported file. I think this has something to do with the difference how lighting symbol rotation is handled between vwx19 and vwx20. This rearranged all my Label Legends. So a lot is unreadable or confusing now. But when I render the same viewport on my computer it gives the correct output. Having read some of the other articles about the 2d/3d label legend differences between vwx19 and vwx20. I came to the conclusion that this may be related. Below are 2 examples. A screen capture of the output from cloud render A screen capture of the output from my laptop. I understand that you want people to switch as fast as possible so you don't have to service multiple platforms but this is just anoying. @klinzey @BSeigel can you guys shed some light on this?
Shutter cuts gone
RickR posted a topic in EntertainmentIt's been years since I did this... but my ellips shutter cuts aren't rendering to match the wireframe beams. The cuts show, but nowhere near where they should. I've since adjusted them in rendering mode, but how does this @%^$%^ happen?
3D into 2D issue
NoemiM posted a question in TroubleshootingHi, really struggling with this. We are now working in 3D - fantastic!-, but the big issue is that once everything has been extruded etc, the 2D looks very different from what we are used to....bringing me to redraw 2D plans AFTER the 3D has been generated just for presentation purposes. A BIG pain and loss of time which I am sure can be avoided but cannot work out how. Have experimented with different renders etc but there must be a function/box/option that I am missing. Can anyone rescue me please? 2D plan BEFORE 3D 3D view (Open GL) 2D top/plan view AFTER 3D 2D top view (open GL) after 3D
Hi On several occasions, and in different projects/files I experienced that the rendered model is not aligned with the physical model. It happens both when rendering in a viewport and directly on the layer. It happens in all versions I have worked with since v. 14 (with renderworks) through to 2020. In the attachment the blue line connects the same house... Am I the only one with this issue? Cheers Andreas

Lumion and Cinema 4DHello, I am evaluating Lumion (which now has this great livesync) and Cinema 4D so to get amazing renderings and maybe walk-troughs. From the 2 latest Demo versions I have these issues and wanted to hear your opinion about them. Lumion demo: Almost always the imported VW model is way far off somewhere in the horizon. I understand, modifying the origin in VW will help but it seems finicky. I already have every texture assigned in VW, but when I select a wall with a particular texture so to replace it with a Lumion one, it only selects that wall, not the other walls with the same texture (or color). Is this how it is supposed to be? I recall trying this with the old Bryce 3D and it would select all the elements which came from same color or texture. Also, have almost no nice textures to choose from and test (but this is due to the Demo version). Moving around (I know, you can use the W A S D etc keys plus shift) seems not very smooth and natural.Can't you just pan and zoom and rotate with the ease of VW? Or is just me not knowing the software yet? Cinema4D demo: It is beautifully integrated with VW and the imported model comes right away at the center of the window (as it should...) and with the same textures already assigned in VW and maybe lights. But the rendered image (without any in depth setting changes because I am too new to really understand the multitude of options) seems identical to the Renderworks one more or less. Would knowledge of C4D make for much more realistic renderings than Renderworks, or because they share the ray trace engine, you will only get better libraries, better mapping options and natural elements but the overall photo-realism of the rendering is similar and less convincing than Lumion (or Vray, but that's not an option yet I understand)? Thanks for any advice
curtain wall not rendering horizontal frames not rendering
thinkingpencil posted a question in TroubleshootingHello everyone. My curtain wall rendered in opengl shows horizontal frames in greyed line wire frame. So not filled. I'd like to see all frames filled. Glass panels and vertical frames are rendered filled as anticipated from class fill settings. All frame types are set identically in the wall edit dialogue. This rendering issue applies to horizontal frames on horizontal grid lines and the top boundary and the bottom boundary frames.....But when I render in unshaded polygon, then the whole curtain wall renders perfectly. I must have missed a setting? Any similar experience?

2019 Final Shaded Polygon No Longer Renders Simple Geometry
pharcus posted a question in TroubleshootingJumping from VW 2016 to 2019. All very simple geometry no longer renders under 'final shaded polygon.' I even took the 2019 file shown in the screen shot, saved as a 2016 file to test. File rendered perfectly (and fast) in 2016. Not sure if there are some settings that didn't carry over, or if I'm doing something wrong? Any help someone can offer would be very much welcome, thanks!!
2019 SP1 - still buggy - Rendering inconsistencies
Daimon posted a question in TroubleshootingTwo identical renders, one in 2018 - perfect, one in 2010 (SP1), whole new black background - just one of countless errors. In 10 years it's the most shabby release to date, numerous crashes, chronic rendering issues (actually slower than 2018). When can we expect a SP2 that make sit useable? I've manually cut logos out for Copyright & blurred images.
Rendering Styles Similar to LumionHi, I have become enamored with the output from Lumion that I have seen working as an exhibit designer. I have been rendering using Renderworks for 8 years and have overall been happy with the results. Where I get frustrated is when I start to add realism such as glows, lighting, reflection, bump. I certainly expect the rendering time to increase, but I've had renderings take 20 + hours. I am tweaking certain settings to speed things along, but timing seems to be an issue. From what I've understood from forums and word of mouth, Lumion is a great, intuitive rendering solution that tends to put out fairly quick renderings that are equal to greater in quality than renderworks. I am sure mouch of this comes down to program aptitude, but it led me to investigate further. I didn't make it far before I learned Lumion is ONLY PC based. Our office is 100% mac and not going anywhere else anytime soon. Has anybody figured out ways to render images that have a certain watercolor effect similar to Lumion's Color Sketch style? Additionally, has anybody found another program similar to Lumion that is operable on Macs? Thanks, Gregg
VW2018 Vanishing objects in rendering?
Marconi posted a question in TroubleshootingHello, I'm having a seemingly funky rendering issue across multiple files. I'm running VW Spotlight 2018 SP4 and am unable to render in Final Renderworks or as Custom Renderworks. Its as if the operation never starts and all my objects, symbols, etc. become transparent (as in they become invisable). Everything is still selectable and appears with an orange outline when selected. Also of note is that when I zoom in and out with the mouse, I am able to briefly see all objects crudely rendered. However, the moment I release the mouse when zooming to lock in a view, all objects revert to their incognito modes and disappear once again. Open GL rendering seems to work just fine. File uploaded below I cant find anything else about this problem on the forums, so I know I'm missing something. Or perhaps I'm just a victim of not enough GPU for VW? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Specs: MacBook Pro 10.13.6 (13-inch, 2016) 2.9 GHz Intel Core i5 8 GB 2133 MHz LPDDR3 Intel Iris Graphics 550 1536 MB Running VW2018 Spotlight Chandelierv1.vwx
Open GL distortion
minotto posted a question in TroubleshootingI've been having this problem from time to time for the past few months. When rendering in Open GL i get distorted surfaces like the screen shot below. Sometimes i can close VWs or go to a Top plan 2d view an then return and it goes away, other times it doesn't. If i create a viewport on a sheet layer with the distortions, close VWs, open it and view the model in a design layer, the distortions disappear but if i go to the viewport created before i closed VWs, they are still there, just not in the design layer. It's sporadic. Anyone have an idea what might be causing this?

KATIE Price flashed her toned stomach as she got her hands dirty oiling her kitchen floor alongside husband Kieran Hayler.
The former glamour model went on a late-night DIY spree as she works on doing up her country home.
The Instagram snap shows the Loose Women panellist holding up a paint brush and a tin of paint as she gets to work on her floors.
Katie rolled her top up to show off her impressively toned midriff and couldn't resist having a little fun by using a bunny ears filter.
She captioned the picture: "Had to wait until kids asleep as I'm about to oil my kitchen floor #oldtonew #modernisationhome I love DIY ❤".
Katie also posted a video of her hard at work painting her living room floors a shade of grey.
Meanwhile, hubby Kieran - who recently cheated on her for a third time with their children's nanny - also got in on the action.
He posted a snap of him cleaning a window sill along with a fresh tin of paint.
Katie, 38, only finished her hard work at 5am this morning and couldn't wait to jump into her new bed for some shut eye.
Posting a picture of her plush new bedroom, she said: "Finally finished the kitchen and hallway floors and it's so late or should I say early now 😱few hours sleep with my comfy bed by @myhomerocksx as kids be up in few hours 🙈#doneanightshift".
Katie is clearly on a mission to transform her home and shared some before and after pictures of her amazing bedroom makeover.
Her plush room now boasts an impressive light fixture, matching champagne coloured carpets, sofas and curtains as well as a quilted bed.
It appears Katie has forgiven her cheating husband as his DIY help comes after eagle eyed fans spotted pictures of him all over her new bedroom.
In the video, Katie shows off a huge new bed and bedside cabinet featuring an image of herself with Kieran and one of the children.
As the camera pans around, the mum-of-five reveals a dressing table, on top of which there is a picture of her and Kieran looking lovingly in each others' eyes.
The new room comes after she defended Kieran during an appearance on This Morning last week – admitting she has barely been thinking about their marriage.
Just last month Katie told The Sun that she was planning on divorcing Kieran after she discovered he had been having a year-long affair with the children's nanny, after she had finally forgiven him for cheating on her with her two best friends.
Katie appeared to excuse his behaviour claiming he had 'mental issues' and admitted that the Kieran she knows is different to the one who cheats on her.
When quizzed about her marriage, she told Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes: "At the moment, he hasn't left the house, people aren't happy until they see a removal lorry on the drive.
"He has mental issues, he is seeing therapist and going to group sessions."
Eamonn then pushed to know if their marriage was still on but she was reluctant to give a final answer, saying she just didn't have time to think about it all.
She said: "I have said to him that our marriage is on the rocks… I have all these things to deal with at the moment, I can't concentrate on one thing."
