A thin layer of software called a hypervisor decouples the virtual machines from the host and dynamically allocates computing resources to each VM as needed. Putting multiple VMs on a single computer enables several operating systems and applications to run on just one host machine. Software executed on a virtual machine is separated from the underlying hardware resources. Each self-contained VM is completely independent. Businesses can run more than one virtual system – and multiple operating systems and applications - on a single physical server, known as the host. Virtualization uses software to simulate the existence of hardware and create a virtual computer system or virtual machine (VM) that acts like an actual computer. Virtualization helps simplify IT management, reduce capital and operating costs, minimize downtime and ensure business continuity. Workloads get deployed faster, performance and availability increase, and operations can become automated in a virtualized environment. Virtualization can also increase IT agility, flexibility and scalability. ![]() Virtualization has become the most effective way for businesses of all sizes to reduce IT expenses and increase efficiency. Applications, servers, desktops, storage devices and networks can all be virtualized. Virtualization is the process of creating a software-based, virtual representation of a physical IT resource.

![]() So here’s to an exciting future of borrowing and stealing-hopefully with some Jobs-style common sense mixed in. No one can argue with Picasso on the subject of creativity. The message would have been clear: iPhone brings color to life at every price point. It might have made far more sense to simply change the end titles, making it an ad for the entire iPhone family. It just seems that the Apple was more focused on having fun than being (a) clear about the message, and (b) strategically brilliant. I repeat: I thought this ad was hugely enjoyable, on a scale most ads never reach. In fact, it has the lowest quality display of all new iPhones. By celebrating the amazing colors of iPhone XR in such a spectacular way, one would logically conclude that the XR display is the best Apple has to offer. Strategically, there’s a whole other issue. That’s an especially grievous failing, given the size, expense and importance of this effort. I don’t remember any ad in Apple history leading so many writers to totally miss the message. To remove all doubt, the subhead said the ad was “concentrating on the chassis colors buyers can choose from.” Internet and discovered that the ad had brought out the thickness in many Apple-savvy observers.īut, unlike me, who ultimately saw the light, many were drawing the absolutely wrong conclusion.Īpple Insider ran the headline Apple’s latest ad uses human ‘flood’ to sell iPhone XR colors. Once I got past that confusion, I felt incredibly thick. I suppose I was tainted by my prior knowledge that XR is the only iPhone that offers a choice of colors. I just wasn’t sure if it was about display quality or the color of the phone itself. Like any sighted person, I did get that the ad was about color. Color Flood actually has more serious issues. Since the Sony and Carlton Draught ads ran more than a decade ago, all charges must be dropped.īut hold on, Apple, we’re not done with you yet. We ad industry people might remember such things, but ordinary human beings do not. That is, it’s okay to artfully borrow from an ad that’s more than seven years old. This 2019 Clio Awards Shortlisted entry titled McDonalds Rebrand in Times Square was entered for McDonald’s US by We Are Unlimited, Chicago, IL. Since 1990, the stadium has been used for rock concerts. Not so fast. I refer you to the teachings of my original mentor in the world of Apple advertising, Steve Hayden-creator of the 1984 Super Bowl commercial. The 2019 Apple iPhone XR 'Color Flood' commercial, which featured large numbers of people running in different colored jumpsuits, was filmed at the stadium. And for a limited time, get an iPhone XR. Will prosecutors now bring charges against Apple in the imaginary Advertising Hall of Creative Justice? See the all-screen Liquid Retina display on iPhone XR with the best battery life in an iPhone. ![]() Chocolate Lab Husky MixĬhocolate Labs are some of the most popular pets around. The one thing that’s almost for certain is that your Huskador pup will have thick, medium length fur, as both parents have this trait. Of course, there’s an even chance that your black Lab Husky mix could take after his Husky parent in the fur department, too. Labs are well known for their different coats, and mixing a Lab of a certain color with a Husky could lead to a Huskador that has a dark coat. He could have brown eyes, blue eyes, or even one of each!Īnd, of course, those aren’t the only physical features that are up for grabs. He may have facial and body features that lean more towards the Lab or the Husky. Both parents grow up to about 24 inches in height, so you can expect a medium to large dog. He is likely to be athletic and powerful. Only time will tell which breed-specific traits he has inherited from his Labrador Retriever and Siberian Husky parents, respectively.įor example, your Husky Lab mix full grown may weigh anywhere from 40 to 60 pounds. After all, what newborn puppy isn’t all soft downy fur, pudgy baby fat, and adorable gangly legs?īut as he grows up, each day will bring new surprises. They will also likely be hardworking, smart and eminently trainable.Īnd finally, you can likely expect your Siberian Retriever to be a great swimmer! Lab Husky Mix AppearanceĪs a young puppy, your Labrador Retriever Husky mix may not appear too dissimilar from his litter mates. So you can be reasonably certain that your Lab and Husky mix will be energetic, affable, and affectionate, as well as loyal and highly protective of their family. However, the parent breeds of a Huskador both share certain traits. Your dog may tend to take after the Husky breed, or the Labrador - or they could be a great balance of the two! You can never know for sure which parent traits from each breed a particular puppy may inherit. In some ways, choosing a designer dog is always a bit of a gamble. Overall, they make for wonderful, loyal pets and guard dogs. They’re typically great with children and adults alike. These dogs were bred specifically to cohabitate and collaborate with people. Historically, they helped out with hunting and gathering food, firewood, supplies, and other necessities. Traditionally, a Husky’s job has been to pull a sled for transportation. It likely won’t surprise you to learn that the breed known today as the Siberian Husky originated in Siberia, Russia. To learn more about the origins of this extremely popular dog breed, take a look at this article. They also tend to be very good with young children and families. Labs are loyal “people dogs.” They make for fun-loving, affectionate, and playful pets. These dogs were bred to work closely with hunters to flush out and collect downed prey. As you might guess, that job typically involves the second word in their breed name – retrieving! Labs are working dogs, born with a job to do. This points to the Lab’s English origins, even though today Newfoundland is a part of Canada. Originally, Newfoundland was a British colony. The Labrador Retriever dog breed originates from Newfoundland, not nearby Labrador, as the dog’s name might suggest. To better understand the origins of Huskador or Siberian Retriever puppies, let’s take a brief look at the history and characteristics of each parent breed. What is important here is that each parent is a purebred dog of one of those breeds. It doesn’t really matter which parent is which. Mix-breed Labrador Husky puppies always have one parent who is a Labrador Retriever and one parent who is a Siberian Husky. ![]()

Just to recap, below is a diagram of the existing lane configuration on northbound I-5 between SR 16 and Port of Tacoma Road. We’re doing this work at night when traffic volumes are substantially lower. That said, we have an enormous amount of lane striping needed for new auxiliary lanes and a new general purpose lane through Tacoma. We know closing I-5 anytime is, at the very least, inconvenient. If you’re on northbound I-5 coming from Thurston County and want to avoid the detour route, drivers can take eastbound SR 512 to northbound SR 167 to westbound SR 18 or I-405 to reconnect with northbound I-5. ![]() Eastbound SR 16 drivers going to northbound I-5 will follow the same detour. Drivers will be detoured to I-705 and SR 509 and back to northbound I-5 at Port of Tacoma Road.

Those who drive this section of northbound I-5 through Tacoma know firsthand that this area is notorious for backups. It also means two new auxiliary lanes will open from the SR 16 on-ramp to the SR 167 exit, and from the I-705 on-ramp to the Portland Avenue exit. What does that mean? For drivers, it means there will soon be four general purpose lanes on northbound I-5, instead of three, all the way from SR 16 to Fife.

The building’s style is taken from a gristmill design. It took 2.5 years to build the current winery building which now dominates the view along Naramata Road. Hillside was the first winery designed by architect Robert MacKenzie back in 1997 he later designed others including Burrowing Owl, Red Rooster, Cedar Creek and Nk’mip. Hillside is well-known for its award-winning wine and delicious Bistro, but many people also come to see the outstanding architecture of the winery and the beautiful landscaping that surrounds it. The new policy allowed small vineyards of five acres or less to not only produce wine but also to sell it directly from their premises. In 1989 Hillside, together with Lang Vineyards and Wild Goose, lobbied the Provincial Government to bring about the Farmgate Winery Policy that was instrumental in changing the B.C. The grapevines thrived in the gravelly soil and warm Okanagan sunshine and Vera’s dream took shape. ![]() ![]() The last surviving apricot tree from the Riddles’ orchard remains on the bank just below the Kettle Valley Railway (on the northeast side of the building). In 1984 she and Bohumir pulled out the apricot trees and planted 3.5 acres of vineyards. In her mind’s eye she saw the sloping land carpeted by orderly rows of grapes – grapes that she would turn into luscious wines, even though she had no experience at either growing grapes or fermenting them. In 1979, the property was purchased by Bohumir and Vera Klokocka who had recently immigrated to the Okanagan Valley from Czechoslovakia. The cherry trees, which were on the Riddles’ front lawn, were planted in 1926. Their property stretched about 100 yards north to what is now Riddle Road the original farmhouse stood on what is now the site of our tasting room. In the early 1900s this site was owned by the Riddle family who operated an apricot orchard. President/General Manager – Duncan McCowanĭTC & Marketing Manager – Lauren SelfridgeĮxecutive Chef - Evan Robertson About Hillside Winery ![]() With a story that feels somewhat inspired by the paintball scene in Friday the 13th Part VI, Severance follows sales manager Steven (Danny Dyer) and his co-workers at arms manufacturer Palisade Defense on a team-building retreat. Years before Adam Scott split between innies and outies, director Christopher Smith ( Triangle) showed the darker side of corporate culture. No, we’re not talking about the (very good!) sci-fi drama on Apple TV+. To understand the effect of these harvesting scenes, know that Motel Hell climaxes with Farmer Vincent wearing a pig head and wielding a chainsaw, but it’s the moments in the field that stick in one’s memory. But the real pleasure of the movie comes from watching Farmer Vincent harvest his fritter meat: feeding visitors hallucinogenic drugs, burying them up to their necks in his garden, and then pulling their heads off with a tractor. Connor and screenwriters Robert and Steven-Charles Jaffe overstuff the story with tropes borrowed from Psycho and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, which would feel obvious if not employed in such delightfully random ways. But Farmer Vincent’s real claim to fame is his fritters, the smoked meats loved by everyone.Īs you might guess, the critters who make those fritters are people, unfortunate visitors to the Motel Hell. When not minding his farm, Farmer Vincent spends most of his time running the Motel Hello with his sister Ida (Nina Parsons), welcoming visitors such as stranded motorcyclists Bo (Everett Creach) and Terry (Nina Axelrod). So warns the tagline of Motel Hell from director Kevin Connor, which stars 1940s and 50s Western star Rory Calhoun as the affable, but murderous Farmer Vincent. The Villa is where many of the film’s most iconic scenes were shot, including when Cary Grant tastes a quiche Lorraine, or the film’s final scene: the kiss.It takes all kinds of critters to make Farmer Vincent Fritters. Its previous owners have always maintained the charm that was skillfully filmed by Hitchcock. The film’s flagship location, Villa Les Bolovens has a spectacular view of the sea, the city of Nice, Saint Jeannet and its hills. The road of the Corniche, where a scene of the film was shot, is where tragedy struck the Princess in 1982. The panoramic view that Grace Kelly’s character is awed by during a picnic with Cary Grant features the Principality, where she will become Princess Grace two years later. One year later, the soon-to-be Princess of Monaco met Prince Rainier III for the first time while visiting the region for the Cannes Film Festival in 1955. Hitchock introduces Grace Kelly to the French RivieraĪfter starring in Hitchcock’s “Dial M for Murder” and “Rear Window”, Grace Kelly came to the French Riviera for the shooting of “To Catch a Thief” and began her love affair with the region. The main building and guest house will soon be offering its new buyer modern comfort, old world charm and a piece of Hollywood history. Its terrace and pool overlook the village and the spectacular Baou de Saint Jeannet. ![]() Luxury real estate agency Côte d’Azur Sotheby’s International Realty in Nice presented the property, built in bastide style in the Côte d’Azur hinterland. ![]() The Villa Les Bolovens, a charming country house facing the Baou de Saint Jeannet, was this year put on the market and quickly sold for its asking price: €3.6 million. Monaco, Cannes, Nice, and the Villa Les Bolovens were all backdrops for the Oscar-winning film. In 1954, Alfred Hitchcock shot one of his most legendary films “To catch a thief”, starring Cary Grant and Grace Kelly, on the Côte d ’ Azur. |
