women employed behind the camera

This single-image created with freely available code shows at a glance the distribution of women across the top jobs in the making of the highest 100 grossing films for 2017, ranked left to right. Each column represents a movie. Each row a job title. The uniform color in the rows reflects the small pool of talent in some jobs. It also shows that some jobs behind the camera are associated with one gender or the other.

Each job is shown as a percentage because some are shared by more than one person. The increments from a pale red to dark red show that 1-25% of the job is credited to women, then 26-50%, 51-75% and 76-100%. Blue means there were no women. White means either none (0), or data missing ( ).

The reform of the British Post office in letters and documents

I took all these images myself of stuff I owned then.  Rowland Hill designed a fast rotary printing machine for printing newspapers in 1835. which made use of large paper rolls. with the idea that the stamp tax be impressed during the printing. The Lords of the Treasury turned down the idea. He was proud of his press. In her biography of her father, Eleanor Hill Smith writes (page 71) “my father has been a school master, a rotary printing press inventor and a member of the South Australian Commission before he took up the cause of postal reform.” This is the original printing for the patent (6762) with a 35-page description by Hill and nine large-format engravings. A search on the WorldCat catalog shows only two libraries worldwide with this item.         An autograph letter signed Charles Knight to Rowland Hill dated 1830, on publishing matters. You told me .. that you would be kind enough to look at the mathematical part of the enclosed proof. Hill credited Knight with the ide

shell collection (40 years in the making)

I realize now that this kind of shell collecting is destructive. Local divers come across a rare shell which they can make money and systematically search and collect (kill) them for sale. Eventually all are gone. I personally regret collecting. these of course are spondylus. I can take more detailed image if need be. basically what you see here is the entire collection except fossils. Pinnidae Xenophora Each box below contains unique species, all identified, Some duplicates I donated to the Smithsonian (they did not have examples) I have the letters to prove this. The collection started in the early 60s. . Name your price. This Tridacna gigas is 33 inches. there's also a separate pair (see below). What you see here is just the general stuff not my specialty collection . the three images above show Xenophora which was my speciality. In particular corrugata.  The one Macromphalus is damaged but there's another that's fine. Th
