![]() ![]() Tools for editing, signing, highlighting, and commenting are fairly easy to access. That’s thanks to the fact that it uses the same ribbon-style menu as Microsoft Office. The software can be a little intimidating at first, but it’s relatively straightforward to navigate. The only thing that’s lacking in the free version is support for optical character recognition in scanned documents. Or, you can scan a document or image and turn it into a PDF using Foxit Reader. Integration with Microsoft Office allows you to easily turn documents you’re working on into PDFs. Read our full Adobe Acrobat Reader DC reviewįoxit PDF Reader is more than just a free PDF reader – you can also create PDFs from scratch using this software. ![]() If you can overlook this, it’s a great tool, but there are less obtrusive ones out there. Sadly, the adware side of things is pretty much everywhere: you get ‘try now’ buttons, you’re offered to use powerful tools but later are asked to pony up some cash in order to actually use them, there’s even a ‘7-day trial’ button. In our review, we reckoned that “Adobe Acrobat Reader DC is one of the best free PDF readers for anyone looking to view documents and manipulate them in some way.” It’s simple, easy to use, and comes with all the basic features you need to interact with PDF files. If it wasn’t for the latter, Acrobat Reader would be a decent addition to your software library. The second is to convince you to upgrade to the paid version of the software (which, you’ve guessed it, has many more features, including the ability to create and edit PDF files). The top PDF viewer is designed with two purposes in mind: the first is to enable you to read and interact with PDF files (including adding annotations and even signing a document). ![]() ![]() ![]() He gets great performances out of both newcomers (Annette Benning! Oliver Platt!) and the glorious company of character actors he stacks the cast with (Mary Wickes, CCH Pounder, Robin Bartlett, Anthony Heald, and the great Dana Ivey, to name a few). He helps Dennis Quaid shed his golden boy image to play an absolute dick, Jack Faulkner, the man whose bed Suzanne overdoses in (I’m sure Meg Ryan can relate). He’s the perfect director for Postcards from the Edge. The man was white-hot, nearly 25 years after his directorial debut. Just two years earlier, the fish-out-of-water comedy was both a massive financial and critical hit, launched Melanie Griffith into the stratosphere, and garnered six Oscar nominations, including Best Picture and Nichols final Best Director nod. In 1990, Nichols was coming off one of the biggest films of his career, Working Girl. So, it’s all the more surprising that Postcards sits in this in-between place of being “good” while not earning the following it deserves. Wounds are reopened, songs are sung, red gowns are worn. ![]() A recent accidental overdose has put Suzanne’s career in jeopardy, making her uninsurable unless she lives with her mother for the duration of filming. The book and film centers on the relationship between Suzanne Vale, an actress, was on the rise, struggling with addiction, and her overbearing mother, Doris Mann, a larger-than-life Hollywood legend. I’m here to fix that.Ĭarrie Fisher was not yet Hollywood’s most sought-after (and secret) script doctor when she adapted her debut novel, Postcards from the Edge for the big screen. I mean, can you even?) isn’t talked about all that much. A great film, which has stood the test of time, but considering its pedigree (Streep. Thirty years ago, Columbia Pictures released the sweet yet biting, semi-autobiographical Postcards from the Edge to critical acclaim, a number one perch at the box office, and, ultimately, two Oscar nominations. ![]() ![]() ![]() So when the second season was about to air, I had tons of theories about what could happen now that the Hosts were able to attack humans and Dolores was leading a rebellion against the humans. It helps the fans get more invested in the world and they start to have a stake in the action, trying to figure out if their theories are actually right. I love shows that tease ideas and makes the viewers start asking questions about what they know like Gravity Falls. It was tricky to figure out, but eagle-eyed fans saw some clues and irregularities and cracked the code.Īnd none of that is bad. The community was able to piece together that William was the Man in Black, Bernard was a Host, Dolores was Wyatt, Arnold wanted the Hosts to make their own decisions, and the season was actually told in a split timeline, one where William was younger and one where he was an old Ed Harris. ![]() Specifically, Westworld treated its audience with respect and knew that they were smart enough to figure out major plot points ahead of time. So in order for us to talk about the second season, I think it’s important that we just talk about the first season and what made it so special. So I’m going to try and vocalize and figure out what made me apathetic to a show about robot cowboys and samurais fighting against an evil corporation in an attempt to gain free will. I’m not someone that goes on Reddit to discuss the theories of Westworld, but I can tell just by talking to my friends that watch this and even some of the other Flixist staffers that something seemed off. ![]() And I don’t think I’m the only person that thinks that. A show that I used to watch every night on HBO as it aired turned into a show that built up on my DVR and sat there until I had nothing else to do. That being said, when I finished the second season my mind was filled with dozens of questions, but the one I kept coming back to was “Why don’t I like this more than I do?” Why am I not head over heels about the second season when the first season was so rock solid?Īnd really, I’ve been thinking about this for a while. This isn’t to talk about the overarching positives and negatives of Westworld and what it did right or wrong. I felt like I needed to get that out of the way right now so no one has any false expectations going into this post. This is not a review of Westworld’s second season. ![]() ![]() ![]() We will carry Gary in our hearts forever. In lieu of flowers, contributions in Gary’s memory may be made to the charity or cause of your choice. Shiva will be observed immediately after interment until 3PM at Temple Beth Shalom, 5089 Johnstown Rd., New Albany. Burial to follow at the New Tifereth Israel Cemetery. Funeral services will be held at 11:00 AM on Tuesday, Jat Epstein Memorial Chapel, 3232 E. In addition to his parents and grandparents, Gary was predeceased by his mother-in-law and father-in-law, Cyril and Howard Smilack, as well as his cousin, Sanford Gross, and brother-in-law, Bernard Stone, who were like brothers to him. Gary is survived by the love of his life, his wife Elaine his loving children, Dan and Jill Barnett his precious grandson, Adam Barnett his dear sister, Diane Stone his wonderful sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Judy and David Schwartz, their extended families, and many cousins and friends. Among the many positions he held at The Ohio State University Medical Center, Gary served as the Medical Director of Clinical Laboratory Outreach Services and as a Clinical Associate Professor in the Department of Pathology. Gary ultimately joined the James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute at The Ohio State University Medical Center. Subsequently, Gary became the Medical Director of LabNet of Ohio, Inc., the Associate Medical Director of Laboratory Corporation of America, Inc., and the Medical Director of Roche Biomedical Laboratories, Inc. ![]() Following his residency in Anatomic and Clinical Pathology at the Cleveland Clinic, Gary worked as a pathologist at Davidson Laboratory and Grant Hospital. Professionally, Gary had a long and meaningful career as a physician, making life-saving diagnoses for thousands of individuals. Gary loved his family, just as they will always love him. And to his grandson, Adam, Gary was “Grandpa Gary,” a role that brought Gary great joy. To Dan and Jill, Gary was not only their father, but also their friend, confidant, and mentor. And when his children became adults, he remained every bit as involved in their lives. ![]() When Dan and Jill were growing up, he attended every school play, talent show, birthday party, and graduation. He relished being a dad and was present in every aspect of his children’s lives. Gary was also the best father to his son, Dan, and daughter, Jill. Gary and Elaine were partners in every sense and completed each other in every way. After five consecutive days of dating, Gary knew that Elaine was “The One.” Upon returning to Albany, he proposed to her over the phone and she accepted, launching a love story and beautiful marriage spanning over 54 years. It was during a weeklong break from his studies at Albany Medical College in the fall of 1968 that Gary returned to Cleveland and met his soulmate, Elaine (Smilack) Barnett, on a blind date. After graduating from Cleveland Heights High School in 1958 (where he was inducted into the Distinguished Alumni Hall of Fame in 2006) and Oberlin College in 1962, Gary fulfilled his dream of becoming a physician when he graduated from Albany Medical College in 1970. With his characteristic determination and motivation, Gary thrived academically. Born in Cleveland, Ohio, to the late Jeanne (Weissman) and Ed Barnett, Gary was a caring son and brother who, from a young age, set his sights on becoming a doctor. ![]() Viewing Hallmark Channel movies was another of Gary’s favorite pastimes, as was eating steak, preferably well-done, and wearing a jacket and tie for all occasions. Gary regularly watched the Food Network and had the thrill of seeing his own contest-winning sandwich featured on one of the station’s shows. He enjoyed science fiction and delighted in learning about watches and cars, as well as listening to classical music. Genuine and humble, it was important to Gary that all people be treated with dignity and respect. Helping others came naturally to him, as did his marvelous sense of humor, ability to engage in lively conversation, and his commitment to the fact that everything tastes better with grilled onions. A loving and devoted husband, father, and grandfather, and a dedicated physician, Gary was the epitome of kindness, generosity, and resilience. During his time on earth, from JJune 23, 2023, Gary touched countless lives. To have known Gary Edward Barnett, M.D., was to have known a good man. ![]() ![]() ![]() Loading up is easy: Slide the pusher back… Drop some tiny pins in, and get to work! Launching Some Pins Seems pointless, for a “headless” pin, but what do I know… At any rate, just slide the holder forward, pop in an M12 battery, and you’re locked and loaded and ready to make some tiny holes. ![]() Note: Most of these pins come with arrows printed on the side, to indicate which side should be facing down. Just depress the magazine release, slide the pusher to the rear, and drop in a strip of your favorite headless pins. Loading up the Milwaukee M12 pin nailer is a snap. A battery gauge built into the pinner helps you keep tabs on your remaining power supply. We didn’t verify that, but I never came close to running a battery down, even after several days of intermittent use. Milwaukee claims the 1.5Ah M12 battery will last long enough to sink up to 750 pins. ![]() The pinner is very compact, but the handle is plenty roomy.Īny Milwaukee M12 battery can be used to power this little pinner. There’s plenty of room around the handle, even for my largish hands. There’s some rubber overmold on the handle to help prevent slipping, and make the pinner a bit more comfortable to hold. Like the larger nailers in Milwaukee’s lineup, the Milwaukee M12 pin nailer feels very solid and well-made. When I freed the pinner from its packaging, the first thing I noticed was its build quality. The Milwaukee M12 pin nailer kit comes in a handy storage bag. We received the kit to evaluate, and I will say I’m very happy to have the bag to keep everything corralled. Both versions include a belt clip and two non-marring tips. The kit provides a charger and a 1.5Ah M12 battery along with the pinner, and also includes a soft rectangular contractor case, which is large enough to store it all, along with an assortment of pins (the pins aren’t included). If you’re already on the M12 platform, with a battery and charger, buying the bare tool will save you around $50.

This allows the pinner to launch the pins with absolutely zero ramp-up time, and to sink them fully into both hard and soft varieties of wood. Like some of its larger Red brethren, the Milwaukee M12 pin nailer relies on a nitrogen gas spring mechanism to propel the tiny 23-gauge pins. The Milwaukee M12 Pin Nailer, ready to help out with the small stuff They’re very useful for attaching small pieces of molding or trim, assembling small projects, or for holding wood parts together and in position after they’re glued up. A pin nailer is a small nailer that shoots tiny, 21-ga or 23-ga (23 is smaller) miniature nails called pins. While there may indeed be someone out there who feels the urge to do just that, in actuality pin nailers are very useful tools. Some of you may be unfamiliar with pin nailers, and are undoubtedly wondering why the heck anyone would want to nail a pin to something. They sent one along to us here at HomeFixated, so we could explore the joys of launching tiny chunks of steel while going walkabout. Once they had all the big guns taken care of, they had a tiny space left on the shelf, and they recently filled it with the Milwaukee M12 Pin Nailer. Regularly using a tool that can launch chunks of steel at high velocity, while wrestling with an air hose and listening to the obnoxious roar of a compressor, often while perched at the top of a ladder, is inspiration to ask the question “Do you feel lucky today?” Over the past few years, the folks at Milwaukee Tool have been perfecting the art of the cordless nailer, with a lineup that includes finish nailers, framing nailers and staplers. In the category of “Best candidate for cordless tools,” nailers have to be at or near the top of the list. ![]() ![]() ![]() iCON’s round design means fitting in the wall or ceiling is simple, and with three versions, are suitable to install in any room large or small.

![]() Yet as military historians often remind us, no one event can really start a conflict of that unprecedented scale any more than one event can stop it. We also know that the spark of the killing ignited the international geopolitical tinderbox just waiting to flame into the First World War. Most of us know this - or at least if we don’t know the exact date, we know it happened in 1914, 100 years ago. Vaughn Wallace is the producer of LightBox.On June 28, 1914, Gavrilo Princip assassinated Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria. But the photographs - nay, the memories - remain. World War I is behind us, and with it, the first-person verification of what occurred. No one to be triggered to the trenches, jarred back to a time and a place by patterns of light locked in photosensitive chemicals. No one left to look at a photograph of the Great War and say, I remember I was there. There are no more living veterans of World War I. “…soon the world will be color-mad, and Lumière will be responsible,” wrote Alfred Stieglitz in a 1907 edition of Camera Work. Although other innovators had discovered ways to bring color to images through tint and screen processing, the autochrome, debuting in 1904, utilized a number of emulsion layers (including one consisting of dyed potato starch) - locking in natural color on a permanent glass negative. The autochrome, more formally known as the Autochrome Lumière, was attributed to two brothers, Auguste and Louis Lumière - French photographers also credited with the invention of early motion-picture equipment. The vibrant photos from World War I posted in this gallery are examples of this surprisingly variegated, many-hued world. Sometimes these colors derive from a colorized restoration at other times, we discover a world of color in the bowels of an old camera, locked in the emulsion of slide film in a machine lost, abandoned or forgotten decades earlier.Īnd sometimes, with luck, we stumble upon scenes from a “pre-color” era captured with experimental color processes. Thus, we’re always jolted when we encounter vivid color photographs from the decades that we have collectively consigned to monochromatic grays. ![]() The past, meanwhile, belonged irretrievably to black and white. When Adolf Hitler, impressed by the color pictures made by his personal photographer, Hugo Jaeger, pronounced in the late 1930s that “the future belongs to color photography,” he might as easily have declared that “color photography belongs to the future.” It was only when human experience began to accelerate and grow profoundly more complicated - say, around the time of the Second World War - that color photography began to come into its own. The world itself (we like to tell ourselves) was simpler in the latter part of 19th century, and in the earliest decades of the 20th. Much of that perceived authenticity derives from the fact that black and white pictures seem to be, in the most positive way, far simpler than their color counterparts. Black and white photographs often feel more genuine than color images - more truthful, somehow - especially those depicting historical events. ![]() |
