![]() The island’s 9500 residents have lived in relative isolation for many years. Similarly, the northern coast has sharp cliffs, while the southern side is less inclined. The island has an area of 246 sq km, with an obvious difference in the relief between the western and eastern sections: the western coast is lined with cliffs, while the east is smoother. At 1053 m, Pico da Esperança is its highest peak. The island is 55 km in length, with a mountain range forming its backbone. Unique among the islands of Azores, São Jorge is uncharacteristically long and slender, and so susceptible to ocean erosion. In 1957, a big eruption about 1 km from the coast ejected large quantities of lava and ash, forming an islet that later became connected to Faial island by an isthmus. By the 19th century, Horta had become an important seaport and a layover for a large number of yachts crossing the Atlantic.Īlong with other islands in the archipelago, Faial is of volcanic origin. In the 18th century, the development of whale hunting brought whaling fleets to Horta. Different shades of blue decorate the houses, which divide the fields and line the roads, giving Faial the name ‘Blue Island’. It has some 15 000 inhabitants and its main municipal seat is the city of Horta. The image highlights the differences in the relief of the islands, with volcanoes and mountains clearly standing out.įaial is part of the central group of the Azores. It features some of the Azore islands about 1600 km west of Lisbon, including the turtle-shaped Faial, the dagger-like Sao Jorge and Pico Island, with Mount Pico reaching over 2351 m in height. Nine islands, nine small worlds that have as many similarities as differences, but where the friendliness of their inhabitants is shared by all.This Sentinel-1A radar image was processed to depict water in blue and land in earthen colours. The tiny island of Corvo has a broad, beautiful crater at its centre, and attracts many species of birds coming from both Europe and America. In the Western group, on the island of Flores, the beauty of the natural waterfalls and lakes carved out by volcanoes is dazzling. Graciosa, graceful in both name and appearance, is an island of green fields covered with vineyards that contrast with its peculiar windmills. On São Jorge, the highlights are the Fajãs and the cheese, a unique specialty with an unmistakable flavour. In front is Pico, a mountain that emerges from the sea, with vineyards planted in black lava fields, a unique culture that also has World Heritage status. Faial is the cool blue of the hydrangeas, the marina painted colourfully by yachtsmen from all over the world and the extinct Capelinhos volcano, which resembles a lunar landscape. On Terceira, the World Heritage town of Angra do Heroísmo, as well as its festivals, is steeped in history. In the Central Group, the islands of Terceira, São Jorge, Pico, Faial and Graciosa are set harmoniously in the deep blue sea, where whales and dolphins can be spotted, to the delight of visitors. The power that emanates from the earth is felt in the geysers, hot thermal waters and volcanic lakes, as well as in the tasty "Cozido das Furnas" slowly cooked inside the earth. São Miguel, the largest island, is seductive with its Sete Cidades and Fogo Lagoons. ![]() To the East, on the island of Santa Maria, the beaches of warm white sand are inviting, and the vineyards covering the slopes like an amphitheatre resemble giant staircases. ![]() Mother Nature has created a land full of natural beauty, ready to be explored, in the blue immensity of the Atlantic Ocean: the Azores. ![]()

![]() Of all the newcomers, Michael Keaton makes the strongest impression as an urbane Ken doll piqued by the notion he is no more than a Barbie accessory. Although the real stand-out is the prison break itself, a superbly executed, Mission: Impossible -style extended set-piece that sees Mr Potato Head (Don Rickles) become Mr Tortilla, Woody confront a watchful monkey and a benign ‘Big Baby’ morph into an unsettling instrument of draconian oppression. Unkrich ups the ante from the off, realising one of Andy’s youthful reveries as a full-blown Old West escapade involving a runaway train, an exploding bridge and a giant porcine spaceship modeled on John Ratzenberger’s scene-stealing Hamm. But let it be said that 3 is also continually, blissfully funny, both in the way it uses established characters and in its ingenious integration of new blood. It’s a remarkably dark turn of events that may force parents to have serious conversations with their nippers they might have hoped to forestall. Yet Unkrich has loftier plans than that, an apocalyptic final act at the local rubbish dump – awesomely realised in 3D as a festering hellhole that is pure Hieronymus Bosch – forcing Woody and friends to contemplate mortality itself. think it is, fostering a desire for freedom that crafts 3 into a cartoon spin on The Great Escape. But this apparent utopia isn’t quite the dreamland Buzz and co. It’s no surprise, then, that this serves as catalyst for this third instalment, an overdue clear-out of his dust-gathering toys – Jessie the Cowgirl, Slinky Dog, dino Rex and all – resulting in them being sent by mistake to the Sunnyside Daycare Centre for a new batch of kids to play with. That day finally arrives in 3, the 17-year-old Andy (voiced as ever by John Morris) having long put away childish things as he and his brood prepare for him going off to college. Above all others is the encroaching fear of obsolescence that stalks Woody like a cancer: the dread his beloved owner Andy will one day outgrow him. Yet the fact they are, ultimately, merely sentient objects means there’s only so far Unkrich can take them, a limitation that sees 3 – initially at least – dramatise concerns and neuroses that have already been articulated in the movies that went before. We’ve all grown up since then, and Buzz and Woody have as well – not physically perhaps, but morally and emotionally. ![]() The bad news is that 3 can never hope to replicate the childlike wonder and delight TS did 15 years ago. Short of asking Lee to reinvent the wheel, it’s hard to imagine a taller order. ![]() It must seek out uncharted ground, introduce fresh protagonists and take familiar ones on an exciting, original and satisfying adventure. At the same time, it can’t simply repeat old glories. It must be that rarest of things – an instant classic that stands shoulder to shoulder with its predecessors like the final volume in a leather-embossed saga. It’s not enough, then, for Toy Story 3 to succeed at the box office. They have become cherished keepsakes, to be passed down from one generation to the next and periodically revisited – on DVD, TV and digital 3D – through ever rosier spectacles. How do they set about following two films that, in addition to creating a genre, have had a decade or more to nestle in their audiences’ hearts? Like the playthings they revolve around, Toy Story and Toy Story 2 have become more than enjoyable ways of passing the time. ![]() How do they set about following two films that, in addition to Let’s go out on a high note! says Buzz Lightyear near the start of Toy Story 3, a line that not only casts an air of finality over Pixar’s 11th opus but also throws down the gauntlet to director Lee Unkrich and his team.

The next step is to display the text of the body (e.g. Would be nicer to be able to pass in the note you want to convert, but shortcuts can’t do this. Here, I just get the note I updated most recently, which presumedly is the one I’m working on. The only way to get a note object is to run Notes::Find. The shortcut accepts text as input so that it can be on a sharing sheet, but otherwise ignores that input. There is no way (that I know of) to pass a note into a shortcut. There is no “note” type, so “text” is the closest thing. You may or may not want to do this, as the shortcut will show up for the sharing sheets in other apps where it is not applicable. I did this so I would not have to leave the Notes App if I wanted to convert a note. Note that I specified that the shortcut show up on the sharing sheet for text. See the picture for the details pane (get to this by tapping the three dots next to the shortcut name).Start up the Shortcuts app and create a new blank short cut (I called mine “Note to text”).Here are the steps to run on the iPad to set things up, I don’t know if these functions are in iOS 12 (they may be), so you may need to wait for the rollout of iPadOS if you don’t want to try the beta. At the time of this post I’m using the iPadOS 13 beta. It turns out, Apple Notes can make the converted text available on the iPad (and likly the iPhone, but I haven’t tried that) if you do some work and use the Shortcuts app that comes with the iOS. There is an iOS App that claims to do handwriting conversion from scanned documents, but that did not work well with PDF files made from Notes. There are plenty of for fee online conversion services in the cloud and they all seem expensive. I had been looking for a way to do this conversion. But in this case I want to do the conversion after the fact and from an Apple Note, not a Nebo note (I don’t keep notes in Nebo). ![]() There are applications that do real time conversion of handwriting into text Nebo being a great example. I really don’t want them to have to read my handwriting, so plain text is ideal. My use case is sometimes I need to share notes with other people. I would, however, like to have access to the full converted text. The text is there, though, as it is used when you search for notes. Apple Notes, behind the scenes, converts the handwriting into text, but aside for the note title you do not see any of that conversion. I do a lot of note taking with the pencil and handwriting, because I find that’s a very fast way for me to get things down. There are many note taking applications out there for Mac/iOS and while Apple Notes may not be the best, the price is right (free), it syncs with all of my Apple devices - MacBook, iPad, and iPhone (sometimes the sync fails in frustrating ways), and it nicely integrates with the Apple Pencil on my iPad. Quick Note is a sticky note app for Mac that is accessible with one click or a keyboard shortcut.I use Apple Notes for all my note taking. However, the app has a paid version named Antnotes that costs $2.99 and brings additional features such as the capability to attach notes to any applications, so they will be shown when the app is activated. It’s available on the Mac App Store for free. Simple Antnotes is a great app except that it doesn’t work in full-screen. You can also create a new note by dragging text and files to the Simple Antnotes menu bar or “Dock” icon. Chose “Services” from the context menu and select “Add to Simple Antnotes” to create a new sticky note with the selected text. To utilize the integration, select text in any application and right-click on it. Simple Antnotes comes integrated with macOS’ “Services”. If required, it’s possible to change the background color of your notes, as well as customize the font and text color. What’s more, users can opt to make their sticky notes translucent if they prefer. ![]() ![]() ![]() Intimate knowledge rather than techno-trickery are the key to real back county flying. It can take months to map out a complex area which may be 100 square miles or more in my head such that I can fly safely in marginal VFR conditions.

Also having trouble getting proper alignment with the runway. I flew over a gravel runway several times and did not even see it because the runway blended in with the terrain which was a similar color. I've done some more flying and I'm having trouble even seeing the destination runway. I was able to load airport ID's on the G 1000. I used to use E6B all the time when I was flying VOR using radios only, then I got lazy and just started to eyeball corrections based on my experience. When you think you're getting good, then lower your visibility to 3miles and try it again. THEN, average the two.įind a free downloadable E6B on the web and use it to figure your wind correction, and go for it. To arrive at a usable DR heading, load your plane at the Destination first and take a GPS reading of the HDG to the Departure airport and then do the same from your departure and find the HDG to destination. If however, you use Dead Reckoning navigation, the difference between Xplane and Skyvector () courses will be enough that you may miss finding the destination airport if more than 150nm or so. You can enter a G1000 route from airport to airport just using the airport ID's, and then fly direct if the wx is good enough. ![]() ![]() ![]() But as exciting as that sounds, they live in peaceful, quiet old Bedrock, a modern domestic civilization similar to our own (but with stone cars that run on leg-power). ![]() Pebbles Flintstone and Bamm-Bamm Rubble are two best friends, growing up in the prehistoric time when dinosaurs and giant beasts still walked the earth.
