Someone forgot to tell old ski nose that non-authentic African locations just weren't going to cut it any more. All others, just watch his earlier films.your brain will thank you for it. There are a few parts that are even ALMOST funny.and Hope fans might enjoy it. Can Matt find the probe.and can he prevent these two from getting to it first? This one has 'time-passer' written all over it. And, since Matt is an idiot, he invites these two to accompany him. At the same time, the Soviets have sent out a sexy spy (Anita Ekberg) and her assistant (Lionel Jeffries). However, Matt is full of hot air and has made up his tales of adventure and is a complete phony. Somehow, it ended up landing in the middle of no where in Africa and the US government go to Matt (Hope) to ask this famous adventurer to retrieve it. But, on the other, it did have nice production values and the story wasn't horrible! The story begins with a moon probe going off course on its return to Earth. In many ways, the film was exactly what I wasn't funny. O'Farrell" simply were NOT funny and it seemed as if Hope was simply going through the motions.so I had extremely low expectations for "Call Me Bwana". "Call Me Bwana" is not a terrible film.and considering the sort of terrible movies Bob Hope was making in the 1960s and early 70s, this is saying a lot! Movies like "Boy, Did I Get a Wrong Number", "How to Commit Marriage" and "The Private Navy of Sgt. Not as bad as some others have 's a lightweight Bob Hope comedy, after all. lots of spies, intrigue, and exotic "foreign" locations, just like a James Bond flick. I can see why Broccoli wanted to do this project. NO SONGS! and a five minute bit with a 30-something Arnold Palmer. This film is very similar to Hope's "Road" movies with Bing, but moves slower. Viewers will recognize Jeffries, who played the grandfather in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Co-stars Anita Ekberg, Edie Adams, and Lionel Jeffries round out the cast. must be the first to find it, so they hire African expert Matthew Merriwether (Bob Hope). The basic premise is that one of our space ships has gone astray, and landed in Africa. The credits don't list who does the voices for John Kennedy or Kruschev at the opening, but clearly its a reflection of the politics of the day. ![]() Acc to IMDb, this was the second film produced by Eon productions. It would turn you off movies forever.Lots of one-liners by Bob Hope, in this film produced by Albert Broccoli, who did all the early James Bond movies. Gordon Douglas directed Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy in Saps at Sea (1940), the classic sci-fi film Them! (1954), James Coburn in In Like Flint (1967), Frank Sinatra in Young at Heart (1954) and The Detective (1968), and Elvis Presley in Follow That Dream (1962), making him the only film-maker to have directed both Sinatra and Presley. Douglas recalled: ‘I have a large family to feed and it’s only occasionally that I find a story that interests me. Don’t try to watch all the films I’ve directed. It is shot in Technicolor by Ted Moore, scored by Monty Norman and Muir Matheson, and designed by Syd Cain. It is only the second non-Bond movie produced by Eon until Film Stars Don’t Die in Liverpool (2017).Īlso in the cast are Percy Herbert, Paul Carpenter, Orlando Martins, Al Murock, Bert Johnson, Peter Dyneley, Robert Nichols and Robert Arden. It is made by Eon Productions by the James Bond producers Harry Saltzman and Albert R Broccoli in the same year as their Dr No. There they find a couple of unlikely foreign spies – Russian secret agent Luba (Anita Ekberg) and Dr Ezra Mungo (Lionel Jeffries, replacing Terry-Thomas).Īs you can see all the jokes coming a mile off in the screenplay by Nate Monaster, Johanna Harwood, Mort Lachman and Bill Larkin, there are only some smiles but very few real laughs among the daft goings-on. ![]() Hope stars as phoney explorer and African authority Matt Meriwether, who takes off with special agent Frederica Larsen (Edie Adams) to retrieve a space module in the Pinewood studio jungle. Call Me Bwana ** (1963, Bob Hope, Anita Ekberg, Edie Adams, Lionel Jeffries) – Classic Movie Review 6550īob Hope is pleasantly enough showcased in director Gordon Douglas’s 1962 British-made farcical comedy, which turns out to be adequate though rather low-fun entertainment.

![]() The Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM lens is dust- and moisture-resistant but I was unable to discover an operating temperature range, which used to be a de rigueur specification for every company’s lenses. Tip: While the ring light theoretically provides TTL exposures, I’ve found that when working in butterfly-friendly environments shooting using manual exposures produces better results. The Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM lens is compatible with the optional Tripod Mount Ring D Collar ($172) and MR-14EX II Macro Ring Lite ($549) that I’ve found indispensable for photographing butterflies. The ruggedly made ET-73 lens hood that’s included offers additional protection. The Canon 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS lens uses 67mm filters and when shooting in environmentally challenging areas, you might want to add Canon’s Protector Filter ($49). That feature also makes it possible to use a polarizing filter without any orientation problems. The Canon 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS lens design uses internal focusing so the barrel doesn’t extend while focusing, so you won’t scare any katydids ( Tettigoniidae) during close-up shooting. It was photographed at Denver’s Butterfly Pavilion with a Canon EOS 50D and an MR-14EX II Macro Ring Lite at an exposure of 1/60 second at f/9 and ISO 400. I’m not an entomologist, but I think this butterfly is from the Heliconius genus sometimes called a Passion Vine butterfly. A range-limiting switch is another one of the controls on the lens barrel and has settings for controlling the AF range from one to 1.6 feet, 1.6 feet to infinity, and one foot to infinity. To activate image stabilization the lens has a single position On/Off switch located just below the inevitable AF/MF selector.įor fast autofocus, the Canon 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS lens uses an ultrasonic focus motor (USM) and has manual focus override for quick focus touch-ups. ![]() Usually this means having to use a tripod but the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L’s image stabilization is so good that all the images I made with it were hand-held and sharp. This is useful in a macro lens because at close-focusing limits even tiny movements are greatly amplified. The EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM lens has what Canon calls “Hybrid Optical Image Stabilization,” which uses a vibration gyro and acceleration sensor to compensate for up to four stops of both angular and shift movement. To minimize focusing time, the lens has a range-limiting switch with three settings to control the range in which the autofocus tries to focus: one to 1.6 feet, 1.6 feet to infinity, and one foot to infinity. ![]() Optional extension tubes, such as Canon’s EF 25 II ($139) and EF 12 II ($82), can increase this ratio for greater magnification and when combined with the lens’s normal 12-inch minimum focus distance, make it ideal for photographing your favorite insects. On the other hand, Canon’s EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM lens ($899) allows for continuous focusing down to true 1:1 life-size magnification. If you do the math, this only requires a magnification ratio of approximately 1:4. With a 1:1 ratio, a DSLR with a full-frame chip should be able to produce life-size magnification and focus on an area as small as 24x36mm.īut manufacturers sometimes describe a lens’s close-focusing capabilities as “macro” even if it doesn’t meet that definition, and over time the term has come to mean focusing on a subject close enough so the image is life-size or larger when viewing a 4圆-inch print. The classic definition of macro photography is that the image projected onto the digital sensor (or film plane) should be the same size as the subject. “The trick to forgetting the big picture is to look at everything close-up.” - Chuck Palahniuk The Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM lens, sitting on my desk, is only 4.84-inches long, or tall if you prefer, but the ET-73 lens hood measures 3.25 inches which makes the lens look bigger and bulkier than it really is. ![]() Detroit Lions Game summary at Louisiana Superdome, New Orleans Game time: 12:03 p.m. All other NFL-related trademarks are trademarks of the National Football League.

One of the major muscles that pulls the mandible upward during biting and chewing arises from the zygomatic arch. Thus the temporal process (anteriorly) and the zygomatic process (posteriorly) join together, like the two ends of a drawbridge, to form the zygomatic arch. It is formed by the junction of two bony processes: a short anterior component, the temporal process of the zygomatic bone (the cheekbone) and a longer posterior portion, the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, extending forward from the temporal bone. ![]() The zygomatic arch is the bony arch on the side of skull that spans from the area of the cheek to just above the ear canal. Separating these areas is the bridge of bone called the zygomatic arch. Lateral View of SkullĪ view of the lateral skull is dominated by the large, rounded brain case above and the upper and lower jaws with their teeth below ( Figure 7.5). ![]() The superior nasal concha is located just lateral to the perpendicular plate, in the upper nasal cavity. It is much smaller and out of sight, above the middle concha. A third bony plate, also part of the ethmoid bone, is the superior nasal concha. Located just above the inferior concha is the middle nasal concha, which is part of the ethmoid bone. The larger of these is the inferior nasal concha, an independent bone of the skull. When looking into the nasal cavity from the front of the skull, two bony plates are seen projecting from each lateral wall. Each side of the nasal cavity is triangular in shape, with a broad inferior space that narrows superiorly. The upper portion of the nasal septum is formed by the perpendicular plate of the ethmoid bone and the lower portion is the vomer bone. Inside the nasal area of the skull, the nasal cavity is divided into halves by the nasal septum. The 22nd bone is the mandible (lower jaw), which is the only moveable bone of the skull.įigure 7.4 Anterior View of Skull An anterior view of the skull shows the bones that form the forehead, orbits (eye sockets), nasal cavity, nasal septum, and upper and lower jaws. In the adult, the skull consists of 22 individual bones, 21 of which are immobile and united into a single unit. The rounded brain case surrounds and protects the brain and houses the middle and inner ear structures. The facial bones underlie the facial structures, form the nasal cavity, enclose the eyeballs, and support the teeth of the upper and lower jaws. It is subdivided into the facial bones and the brain case, or cranial vault ( Figure 7.3). The cranium (skull) is the skeletal structure of the head that supports the face and protects the brain.
![]() Another bonus with mineral makeup is that it doesn't expire quickly. You'll get the hang of it soon enough and if you're anything like me you'll still be reaching for this foundation 6 years later. I think the trickiest part at the beginning was learning how to apply it correctly.

For less serious injuries, there is a chance that if the bird is left alone for a few hours, it might be able to fly away on its own, once released. If the injuries look serious, the bird has blood on it, is missing a significant amount of feathers, is swollen, asymmetrical, or can no longer stand on its own, the best thing to do is to take the bird to a rehabilitation centre immediately. Place the injured bird in a covered box, with air holes punched in it, and keep it in a warm, quiet place without trying to feed it or apply any kind of medication. The first thing to do if you find a small, injured bird is to confine the bird. ![]() Rescued brown creeper being released © FLAP ![]()

Please note that this is a sort of nerd-oriented app, probably useless for the average android user. If you plan to put the virtual machines in the external SD card, be aware that Android>=4.4 grants write access to the app only under /Android/data/lb.myapp.lbochs/files. It's possible to set the emulator run on a specific cpu model (386/486/586/686/686X64), but the configuration must be chosen wisely or the app will crash badly.Ī smart way to use the app is to create the VM on PC and then copy it inside the android device. It's possible to create shortcuts for different systems (if the home launcher allows it). I provide also a virtual HD ready to use for OS installations. I provide a floppy with freedos just to make the emulator boot after app installation.

It's possible that the device CPU becomes stressed causing overheating.LBochs is a port of the Bochs X86 emulator (). Than the app may drain your battery quickly, but this depends on the configuration (emulated cpu cycles).

When the unit sprays it tends to leave water on the solar panels. We recommend using the Spray Away Elite II in areas with low to moderate activity. If you have a lot of animals being sprayed, you may find that the battery doesn’t recharge quickly enough to continue spraying. The battery drains a little each time the unit is activated. You’ll also see reduced effectiveness after several cloudy days. In a shady area, the unit doesn’t work as well and, over time, may not retain enough power to work at all. However, you’ll want to put in full sun so that the solar panel can charge the unit. That allows you to place it anywhere you wish. One of the benefits of the Spray Away Elite II is that it doesn’t need to be attached to an electric cord. ![]() The infrared sensor is particularly effective in cooler weather and, best of all, it works well at night when many animal pests are out cruising for dinner in your garden. So if animal pests are a nuisance during winter, look for other means of controlling them (such as using deer netting or spraying repellent mixtures directly onto plants). Nor, for that matter, can any other water-spraying animal repellent system. In many parts of the country, this means that the Spray Away Elite II cannot be used during winter. The company recommends emptying and storing the unit in a dry location when temperatures fall near freezing. So for those of you in hot climates, this may not be the best unit for you. We found that when temperatures reached about 95F, the sensor didn’t even pick up a person within 5 feet of the unit. However, it has a difficult time detecting animals in high heat and the sensitivity level will need to be reset to a higher level when temperatures reach 80F. The unit uses an infrared sensor to detect movement. The spray distance and oscillation depend to some extent on battery power so you’ll get different performance depending on how often and how recently the unit has activated. The instruction manual explains the process but it’s not as easy as it looks. Adjusting the tabs and metal wire clip on the sprinkler head takes a lot of trial and error to get the water to spray the right distance and to oscillate throughout the desired arc. ![]() Once the unit is fully charged, set the sensitivity and adjust the water coverage. It’s hard to get that part wrong – but the rest of the set-up is a little finicky.Īdjusting the sprinkler head can take a lot of tinkering to get it right Put it in a quiet area in full sun and let it charge for a few days. Next, turn the switch ON and set the sensitivity dial to ‘1’ (the lowest sensitivity level). Simply attach the spray head to the body using the provided plastic wrench. Out of the box, the Spray Away Elite II is easy to set up. While it does startle animals (and people!), performance will depend on a number of factors so read on to see if it will do the job for you. ![]() The device repels animals by startling them with a strong jet of water whenever they come within the 35-foot range of the infrared sensor. This solar-powered, motion-detecting animal repellant device is intended to humanely deter pests in the garden without the use of smelly or toxic chemicals, or needing to be connected to a hose or electrical cord.
