"Tyrrell: The story of the Tyrrell Racing Organisation" reviewed
Let’s start with the disclaimer: Tyrrell were always ‘my’ team, making me the absolute target audience for this book. For the (outrageously) uninitiated Tyrrell were the quintessential independent Formula 1 team. From early successes and three world championship in partnership (initially) with Matra and Jackie Stewart, via Derek Gardener’s six wheeler, and into a difficult 1980s and 1990s that wasn’t without its Cinderella moments – the Tyrrell story is entertaining in its own right, and also perfectly frames Formula 1’s evolution into a multi-billion dollar business. Balancing a coffee table format, lavish illustration (over 500 pictures), and the need to tell a 40-plus year story in a few hundred pages, Richard Jenkins does a brilliant job of pulling it all together. It would be tempting to focus on the Tyrrell story up to the retirement of the six-wheeler at the end of 1977, but instead the book is superbly paced, offering as much insight into later struggles as on the glory days. The joy of Tyrrell is that the team was always about the racing, and that is largely the focus of the book – with extensive contributions from almost all surviving Tyrrell drivers and technical staff – securing this array of interviews (including the scarcely heard from Mike Thackwell) is an achievement in itself. Alboreto gave Tyrrell their final win 40 years ago That said – and bearing in mind my ideal length for this book was 3,000 pages – I would have liked a bit more on the business side of the team, having a bit more of a breakdown of latter year budgets, prize money and general logistical considerations. Jenkins does a good job of not weighing in, when it would have been easy to express an opinion – for example both sides of the 1984 technical disqualification are put forward, and there are other occasions where Ken Tyrrell’s stubbornness had me gnashing my teeth in frustration (just buy a hospital motorhome!). That said no punches are pulled or egos spared – there is unusual honesty from contributors about the capabilities of the drivers who passed through the team. Most importantly the atmosphere and tone of the team is captured perfectly, Tyrrell was a one-off – a championship-winning Formula 1 team that felt like a family. For myself and many, many, others the Tyrrell ethos made supporting Formula 1 personal and relatable. It is extremely unlikely that we’ll see the likes of Tyrrell in Formula 1 again, and more’s the pity. RaceFans rating Read all the RaceFans book reviews.

2023 JUNE 14 Wednesday
REVIEWED 1'23 #3 ~ Is 8 too much?
After a few days of consistently meeting my targets both for consuming 8 x 250-ml glasses of water (instead of previously counting it as 8 x gulps of water) per GAMON 1'23 #2 targets, as well as sleeping at least 8 hours a day to complement the rise in frequency and intensity of physical activities, I have had some experiences and observations that made me reassess if the target value is appropriate for me and my circumstances.
I have read medical articles for and against both target levels but I wanted to see and feel for myself by making sure I had at least a few days of meeting these targets consistently to make sure what I note down would have at least a reliable relationship to the newly obtained and maintained levels. After having done that, these are my points:
8 x 250-ml glasses of water everyday seemed a bit excessive for most days, even with a consistent amount of physical exercise and regular activities. I found myself struggling to keep up and it always made me feel bloated and heavy without having a significant effect on my thirst levels throughout the day. Further, as expected, I needed to urinate a lot more which was supposedly a good thing to keep me hydrated and another means to break my straight hours of sitting and working on the computer, but unfortunately it also means at times I just randomly feel a sudden and urgent need to pee at very inconvenient times. I will still try to adjust my intervals to see if I can make some improvements there but all in all, I believe that 8 x 250-ml glasses of water everyday isn't necessarily the crucial minimum amount that you need to meet every day despite what a vast majority says. Even with an active lifestyle, it may be possible that lesser amounts can still help sustain a healthy body (and sanity, as all that water chugging can also intoxicate your mind, as it has mine at times).
8 hours of sleep everyday seemed like a great feeling during the first few days, but most probable because I've been lacking proper and regular sleep in the days prior. But as the days of continued 8+ hours sleep started to stack up, I found my energy levels far exceeding the requirement for the day and I met an old friend in the form of my nocturnal insomnia, which culminated in not feeling sleepy and not being able to sleep until past sunrise today. (Which actually is what inspired this blog post) Also, some of the previous days I found myself waking up before reaching 8 hours of sleep but fully recharged, and I still forced myself to sleep again thinking I can benefit from the additional 'resting state'. Turns out, the past days showed that my previous target of at least 6 hours, with the total time preferably divisible by 1.5 hours worked well enough for me to maintain enough energy to sustain my physical activities while not being too much as to resurrect my inner owl. And so starting today, I will still make sure I can allocate 8 hours of sleep but I won't be as adamant or persistent in meeting the target each day at the expense of my sleep stability everyday.
TL;DR - 8 x 250-ml glasses of water and 8 hours of sleep every day might not always be good for you. Be disciplined enough to be able to meet it, but take time to observe and adjust whatever makes your body and mind feel good in the long run.
P.S. This is a qualitative and personal take on the above parameter levels and should not be taken as a scientific or quantitative assessment of its value or benefits.

French billionaire’s stake in BT to be reviewed over national security concerns | Business News

Goncharov coming third in tumblr's top 100 movies of 2023 is so damn funny. Imagine being a film studio exec who spent millions making some of the other 97 movies listed below it only to be beaten by a film that cost exactly zero dollars to make and doesn't exist

no offense but you guys need to learn the difference between someone implying their experience is universal and a post simply just not being about you

people are drawing Steamboat Willie Mickey doing all this crazy shit and whatnot, but you could always do that. you can do that now, with current Mickey, just fine. it's fanart and it's legally protected. hell you could take Disney-drawn Mickey and put a caption about unions or whatever on it and it would still be protected under free speech and sometimes even parody law.
what is special about public domain is that you can SELL him. you could take a screenshot and sell it on a tshirt. you can use him to advertise your plumbing business. people have already uploaded and monetized the original film.
you could always have Mickey say what you want, but now you can profit off it.
