It makes more sense to increment 3.1.9 to 3.2.0 (sort of hundreds, tens and units)

Dear Fredo,

When I use your plugin checker it suggests that I do not have the most recent version of cleanup, even though I have installed it. The checker appears to be calling for an earlier version. What's up doc!

I like the simplicity of the design, but a few small splashes of colour would bring life to the scene. Perhaps a couple of crimson scatter cushions.

As always, the modelling and rendering are excellent.

A combination of 1 and 2. I like the sides if 1, and the split seat of 2. The split seat means that one can look for stored items while seated. Think about those stiff joints and tired legs. The curved sides should have a hand rest section near the lower edge to aid in 'pushing up' when getting up from the seat. Watch how elderly people get out of a chair.

Actually, we do re-build buildings if they are about to fall down

It usually costs oodles of cash as everything has to be as authentic (of the period) as possible. Igtham Mote was actually saved from demolition by an American.

It is looked after by English Heritage

Conservationists in the UK tend to frown on re-building ancient monuments. It's just not done, old chap!

The paste is a gap filler, and so the applied pressure is of minor importance. What you are doing is replacing the air (a poor conductor), with the paste (a better conductor). It is generally true that under very light pressure, two surfaces contact at 3 points (asperities). Increasing the contact pressure will 'crush' the asperities bringing more asperities into contact,increasing the surface area for heat conduction. The thermal paste has a better thermal conductivity than air, but still should be used thinly. You should aim to 'fill up' all the dips and hollows so that the gap is all paste with no air. These links might help:

This seems quite clear:

How to Apply Thermal Paste for CPU Heat Management

Connect a heat sink to a processor with thermal pasteHeat management is important to consider when constructing or maintaining your computer. Too much heat can spell death for your sensitive components, and if you're overclocking it's even...

wikiHow (www.wikihow.com)

The important thing is not to entrain air when making the contact.

It is much easier to 'place' construction points than it is to draw curves using the freehand tool. A possible plugin might do the following:

• select the plugin's cpoint tool
• place cpoints along the required path
• move and adjust the cpoints until everything looks right
• select all cpoints along the required path
• select the start cpoint
• select the end cpoint
• select the plugin's curve fit option

The plugin then draws a curve through the cpoints, with an edit/curve update option to move the cpoints if needed. The cpoints can then be deleted.

One of Fredo6's plugins probably does this already. I need to investigate.

I've posted this before, but I can't remember where, and so here it is again.

The title reminds me of this cartoon.

Here is an animation showing the proposed new Physics building at Oxford. No idea what software was used to make it.

The concept of 'open plan' seems to be in vogue at the moment, as the new Biochemistry building is open plan with researchers having shared work areas rather than offices (http://www.ox.ac.uk/media/news_stories/2008/081212_1.html). Not sure I care for it much.

I found this hilarious. You need to watch it to the end

The videos are well worth watching as they describe the construction of the ceiling.
