![]() If you find it too “technical”, you should give duplicati a try: the development seems to have made significant steps forward in the past couple of months and many people are already using it without any of the issues that I had. So if you don’t have a backup solution yet (or are unhappy with the one you have), I highly recommend you look at duplicacy (I use the command line version, but there is also a GUI version). In plain english, this means that when I sync my files to different computers via dropbox or similar services, they will be uploaded only once: The program notices that these files are already backed up and will not upload them again, thus saving a pile of space. ĭuplicacy worked more or less flawlessly from the beginning (though less technophile users may find it to complicated to use) plus it has a killer feature that I have not seen anywhere else so far: cross-source deduplication. With my crashplan subscription drawing closer to its definite end in April 2018, I decided to try yet another alternative: duplicacy. Unfortunately, I kept running into issues with duplicati (mostly having to do with the local database being corrupted and repair not working) and bug fixing went slow, as it is a hobby project for the developer. ![]() Because I did not like the existing support channels (gitter, google groups), I helped the developer set up a discourse-based support forum which has attracted a lot of users since its launch in August 2017, partly, I suppose, due to Crashplan announcing the end of its service for home users, many of whom explored duplicati as a possible crashplan alternative. In particular, I liked that it is open source and future proof in the sense that I would always be able to access my encrypted data, even in decades when duplicati may no longer be maintained. This is when I discovered duplicati 2 and although it was still in beta, it looked very promising. He listened patiently to my problems and although he insisted that he has lots and lots of customers where the software works fine, I did manage to convince him to look at the issues I had (this is how it should be but not all developers/companies do that) and we managed to track down a couple of bugs but it seemed a neverending story and so I eventually decided to scrap syncovery and start looking anew, even though this entailed that I would probably have to pro-long my Crashplan subscription another year. So while my experience with the software was not so good in the end, I can only say good things about the support by the developer. Syncovery was very promising but I kept bumping into bugs and errors and I spend a hell of a lot of time helping the developer debug these problems and he actually ended up compensating me for some of that work. (Well actually you can change the source folder and the original stuff in the backup will remain but will no longer be backed up.) With SyncbackPro, the restore process seemed rather complicated and once a folder is selected as the source, you cannot add other folders to that backup job. Goodsync had crap customer service (reasonably fast response, but useless and not answering my question) and it was designed more for syncing than for backing up (although backing up is possible). Goodsync, Cloudberry and SyncBackPro were out pretty quickly :Ĭloudberry cannot handle backups larger than 1TB unless you buy the enterprise version for 300 USD. I spend a lot of time testing various solutions, including Arq, Goodsync, Cloudberry, SyncBackPro and Syncovery. Apparently it was in line with their Terms of Service, but deleting backups is not a goof thing to do for a backup company). I focused on software solutions that would allow me to back up to whichever storage I want so that I would be in better control of my data (Crashplan at some point deleted an entire backup of mine because the computer it was associated with hadn’t backed up anything for more than six months. But Crashplan turned out to be a memory hog (especially if you have a multi-terrabyte harddrive) and it was clear that I want a better solution so I started looking for an alternative in 2016, one year before the subscription was supposed to end. At the time, I bought into their four year family plan (=multiple computers) for 429.99 USD. I have been using Crashplan as my backup tool since February 2015.

Giles and Joyce hastily walk in opposite directions. ![]() Buffy, thinking quickly, rips open a gas line, forming a jet of fire that sets Lurconis ablaze.Īt school, a sober Principal Snyder commandeers Willow, Oz, Cordelia and Xander to help clean up some graffiti. A rumbling starts, and an enormous, snake-like head emerges from a nearby tunnel. He shoves Ripper into the Lurconis' feeding pool, distracting Buffy long enough for Trick to make his escape. Trick and Buffy get ready to rumble, but Ripper hauls off and throw a solid left to Trick's face - but he's unfazed. Buffy drops in and engages Trick's vampire minions in combat while Ripper and Joyce wheel the babies to safety. Down below, the ritual is underway, where hooded vamps chant ominously while the Mayor looks on. Ripper has a flash of memory: Lurconis is related to filth, so he probably resides in the sewers. We get an answer to that question as a troop of vamps enter an unsupervised maternity ward and steal all of the newborns. He says the candy was just to render the town helpless while Trick and his vampires collect a big tribute for some demon named Lurconis, but he doesn't know the what. Buffy and Ripper chase him down and make the weaselly warlock reveal the plan. Finally, Buffy jumps up onto the loading dock and finds Ethan inside the factory. Buffy wins a free trip to Therapyville as she sees Ripper and Joyce making out. a factory at which a crowd of people are clamoring for more candy. Oz and Willow head off to the library to research the problem while Buffy and Snyder head to the source, which is. Buffy grabs Snyder and asks if he knows where to get the candy, which he does. They quickly deduce that the candy is cursed, and that the whole exercise must be a diversion.

Teen Snyder is fun, though a bit clingy to the "Scoobies." Buffy decides to find out what's going on, and Snyder tags along. Snyder comes up and puts his arms around the two of them (!), then snorts that the other teachers are wasted. Meanwhile, Buffy and Willow arrive at the Bronze to find it largely populated by adults acting like.well, teenagers. "No way!" says Giles, lighting up a cigarette as Joyce takes a bottle of Kahlua out from hiding. Joyce makes a "whew" face, and wonders if Buffy sensed anything amiss. Delighted, Buffy snatches the keys and leaves in a cartoon cloud of dust. Giles explains that they are rescheduling her activities to lessen her burden, and Joyce hands Buffy her car keys and invites her to drive herself home. Worried, Buffy goes to Giles' place and finds her mom sitting on the couch. The next day, Giles fails to show up for study hall. At a factory somewhere in Sunnydale, a workman is about to do the same thing, but Ethan Rayne stops him. After Giles steps in to mediate (telling them not to " freak out"), Buffy is sentenced to her room, leaving the adults to munch on chocolate bars. When she arrives home, Buffy finds her mother and Giles waiting for her. Sure enough, Buffy goes to the mansion to bring Angel some fresh blood. Buffy cops out of training early, explaining that Joyce is on the warpath, and breezily exists. ![]() Questions? Comments? Have a fix?

War also features perhaps the best score in the franchise's history, which is particularly impressive considering just how crucial earlier scores were to their respective entries in the Apes franchise. Rather, it remains faithful to the characters and the environment that had captivated fans for so long. Reeves takes obvious inspiration from classic war movies like Apocalypse Now and Bridge on the River Kwai, but the film never feels derivative. The film is nothing short of epic, putting Serkis' Caesar through unprecedented turmoil on both a physical and emotional level. And yet, Matt Reeves achieved exactly that with 2017's War for the Planet of the Apes. Closing out a trilogy with one of the greatest sci-fi films ever made? Even harder. Still, its ability to bridge the gap between two distinct generations of the Apes franchise is laudable.Ĭlosing out a trilogy is no easy task, as can be evidenced in everything from the Matrix trilogy to Christopher Nolan's Batman trio. Serkis and the rest of Rise's cast do a great job of setting up all the dominos that will fall in the next two films in the trilogy, but the film does feel a little formulaic in its storytelling. Serkis' performance is mesmerizing, and his work only improves through each iteration of the new films. Their relationship, and the journey it sends them on, ultimately becomes the driving force behind apes' rise to dominance.Ĭaesar is brought to life via motion-capture by actor Andy Serkis. The film follows Alzheimer's researcher Will Rodman (James Franco) as he bonds with Caesar, a young ape who he rescued from the lab. Rupert Wyatt's Rise of the Planet of the Apes offered a bold new vision for what the Apes franchise could be. Its triumphant return in 2011, however, proved to be worth the wait. In the wake of Tim Burton's disastrous attempt at rebooting Planet of the Apes in 2001, the franchise faded into obscurity for a decade. Still, considering the uneven nature of the early sequels, Conquest has a lot going for it. Of course, there's nothing inherently wrong with opting for spectacle over substance, but the action in the film is far from spectacular. It refrains from fully engaging with the many themes bubbling beneath its surface, and behaves more like an action-packed blockbuster instead. Like many of the original sequels, Conquest does play things a bit safe. Related: Every Unmade James Cameron Movie (& Why They Didn't Happen) The recent trilogy's tight focus on its version of Caesar likely made him a more memorable character, but Conquest still told a compelling story of an ape wrestling with his mistrust of humans. Indeed, 1972's Conquest marked audiences' introduction to Caesar, the young ape who would go on to lead a revolution in later films. Burton, who is not the first director to consider an Apes reboot, offers enough in the way of spectacle to make his take on the franchise worthwhile, even if the film's script is mediocre at best.Ĭonquest of the Planet of the Apes likely bears the worst name out of any film in the Apes franchise, but it does have one important thing going for it: Caesar. Sure, Planet of the Apes is the definition of mindless entertainment, but the film's ape prosthetics are pretty impressive, and are a clear upgrade from the costuming in the original films, which still remains impressive in its own right. Related: Planet of the Apes: All Movie Timelines Explained Instead, it operates like a silly B-movie. 2001's Planet of the Apes remains blissfully unconcerned with the politics that have so heavily defined the other eight films. It's technically a remake of the first film in the franchise, but it simultaneously works as a sequel to the film, taking place several hundred years in the future. It pretty much makes no sense, particularly its bizarre ending. Tim Burton's take on Planet of the Apesis a difficult film to assess. ![]() The premise has gained greater traction in the wake of the recent trilogy, leading to some fascinating fan theories, but it did not make a particularly strong impression as the initial follow-up to one of the most innovative sci-fi films of all time. In truth, the greater threat posed to the franchise by Beneath was the film's nonsensical story, which drew attention away from the titular apes and instead focused on a group of telepathic humans who worship an underground nuclear bomb. The vanishing of earth at the end of Beneath could have killed the franchise altogether, but a whole bunch of time-traveling shenanigans ensured that Planet of the Apes could live on. Heston ultimately returned for 1970's Beneath the Planet of the Apes in the form of a cameo, and only under the condition that he can blow up planet earth by the film's end. ![]() So, when the success of the first film prompted 20th Century Fox to consider a sequel, star Charlton Heston was skeptical. When Planet of the Apes first emerged in 1968, Hollywood franchises were few and far between. In Asian markets, The Nikkei Index fell -188 points to 30,323, the Shanghai Index dropped -49 points (1.34%) to 3,607 and the Hang Seng Index tumbled -365 points to 24,667. futures are pointing to a lower open, pulling back ahead of weekly jobless claims and retail sales data (economists are looking for a 0.8% drop in retail sales for August, compared with a 1.1% fall the month) while Asian markets fell for a 4th straight day following China’s broadening crackdown on corporate profitability. “That's one area where I think the government could take action without necessarily producing (a) challenge for the Bank of Canada.U.S. “There is a policy rationale that could be characterized as coherent and justified, to provide for at least in the short term, some temporary relief from the carbon tax,” Speer said. However, one area where Speer sees opportunity for the government to provide Canadians with financial relief is with the carbon tax. He says that some policies, such as sales tax holidays, could result in higher interest rates if the Bank of Canada has to offset further boosts in demand. But governments will have to be “very careful” when it comes to inflation relief, says the Public Policy Forum’s Sean Speer. With inflation reaching highs not seen in nearly four decades, pressure is ramping up on governments to provide Canadians with some form of relief from high prices.

At Simply Wall St, we have a full range of analyst estimates for Inphi going out to 2022, and you can see them free on our platform here.Įven so, be aware that Inphi is showing 1 warning sign in our investment analysis, you should know about. ![]() Keeping that in mind, we still think that the longer term trajectory of the business is much more important for investors to consider. There was also a nice increase in the price target, with the analysts clearly feeling that the intrinsic value of the business is improving. Pleasantly, they also upgraded their revenue estimates, and their forecasts suggest the business is expected to grow faster than the wider industry. The most important thing to take away is that the analysts reconfirmed their loss per share estimates for next year. It seems obvious that, while the growth outlook is brighter than the recent past, the analysts also expect Inphi to grow faster than the wider industry. Compare this with other companies in the same industry, which are forecast to grow their revenue 9.0% next year. It's clear from the latest estimates that Inphi's rate of growth is expected to accelerate meaningfully, with the forecast 43% revenue growth noticeably faster than its historical growth of 14%p.a. ![]() These estimates are interesting, but it can be useful to paint some more broad strokes when seeing how forecasts compare, both to the Inphi's past performance and to peers in the same industry. Analysts definitely have varying views on the business, but the spread of estimates is not wide enough in our view to suggest that extreme outcomes could await Inphi shareholders. Currently, the most bullish analyst values Inphi at US$130 per share, while the most bearish prices it at US$90.00. There's another way to think about price targets though, and that's to look at the range of price targets put forward by analysts, because a wide range of estimates could suggest a diverse view on possible outcomes for the business. The analysts increased their price target 15% to US$117, perhaps signalling that higher revenues are a strong leading indicator for Inphi's valuation. Before this latest report, the consensus had been expecting revenues of US$568.7m and US$1.24 per share in losses. Losses are supposed to decline, shrinking 18% from last year to US$1.26. This would be a major 43% improvement in sales compared to the last 12 months. NYSE:IPHI Past and Future Earnings May 10th 2020įollowing the latest results, Inphi's 13 analysts are now forecasting revenues of US$606.7m in 2020. ![]() A ship arrives on Blood Island carrying American pathologist Bill Foster ( Ashley), looking to discover the cause of a chlorophyll-related disease afflicting the islanders, Sheila Willard (Angelique Pettyjohn) who is searching for her missing father and Carlos Lopez (Ronaldo Valdez) who Is hoping to persuade his mother to leave the island, described by the ship’s captain as “a pest-hole, a jink. The film itself begins with a naked woman running through the jungle and falling foul of green-skinned monster. The prologue – clearly added later as an afterthought – has nothing whatsoever to do with the rest of the film but at least gets things off to an amusing start as the narrator (voiced by star John Ashley) tells us that “I, a living, breathing creature of the cosmic entity, am now ready to enter the realm of those chosen to be allowed to drink of the Mystic Emerald fluids herein offered” and exhorts to the audience to “drink your sample of green blood and it is guaranteed that you can never turn into a green-blooded monster” and indeed in the States punters were supplied with a green drink to quaff at the appropriate moment. ![]() The Mad Doctor of Blood Island, the third in the series, begins with some bored-looking young people (they were teenagers rounded up from families stationed at local US Air Force bases) knocking back vials of green liquid as a narrator witters on about “the Order of Green Blood” and leads us through this entirely superfluous ceremony to join its ranks. Wells’ 1896 novel The Island of Doctor Moreau. The Mad Doctor of Blood Island was one of a string of very loosely related films that have come to be known as the “ Blood Island” trilogy, which began with Brides of Blood (1968) and ended with Beast of Blood (1970) ( Terror is a Man from 1959 was something of a precursor) all directed or co-directed by Romero and all inspired to varying degrees by H. It turns out that not only does the scene in the still not appear in the actual film but the monster looks far more impressive frozen in time than it ever does in Gerardo de Leon and Eddie Romero film. One of the most enduring images was of a hideously decomposing victim of a “chlorophyll man” from the Filipino The Mad Doctor of Blood Island (1968) (reproduced below) which seemed impossibly exotic at the time. In the review of Kyôfu kikei ningen: Edogawa Rampo zenshû/Horrors of Malformed Men (1969) I waxed lyrical about Denis Gifford’s 1973 book A Pictorial History of Horror Movies and the cornucopia of strange sights it offered, from the collection of eponymous deformed men from Teruo Ishii’s film to the woman with the axe in her head from The Black Cat (1965), from the sinister skeleton in Kyûketsu dokuro-sen/The Living Skeleton (1968) to the cackling undead disposing of a body in The Plague of the Zombies (1966). |
