Your CNN account Log in to your CNN account – CNN’s Barbara Starr contributed to this report That’s beyond the planned retirement date of the two 1990 Boeing-built jets now in use as Air Force One, which had been set to be replaced by 2025. The added delays could push back deliveries of the new jets to 2026, according to Boeing and Wednesday’s GAO report. He said the 2018 deal with the Air Force included “a very unique set of risks that Boeing probably shouldn’t have taken.” On a call with analysts in April, Boeing CEO David Calhoun said the $3.9 billion contract that Boeing signed to build the planes was a mistake for the company, given the losses it is now incurring. That contractor was replaced, further setting back progress. The airline builder also had a dispute with a subcontractor that was working on the interior of the new jets.

President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump wave to supporters as they board Air Force One to head to Florida on Januin Joint Base Andrews, Maryland. The General Accountability Office said in a report issued Wednesday that the planes undergo a comprehensive series of tests as part of the multi-year process of upgrading two standard 747s for use by the president and other national security officials. The Air Force also didn’t say how the problem was discovered. The Air Force did not disclose when there will be a decision on the colors to be used, or what options are under consideration. Painting is typically among the final stages of completion before a plane is delivered, so it’s unlikely the new jets will need to be repainted. “Further analysis concluded darker colors, among other factors, on the underside of the VC-25B aircraft might contribute to temperatures exceeding the current qualification limits of a small number of components.” “The paint scheme in question was one of many possible livery colors proposed,” an Air Force spokesperson told CNN Thursday. Trump instead wanted a red, white and dark blue palette that more closely matches the colors of the US flag.īut it turns out the darker blue - which some observers say is similar to the color scheme on one of Trump’s personal jets - poses challenges to the military planes’ sophisticated electronics system that ensures the president can stay in secure communication with officials on the ground - even in the case of a nuclear attack. ![]() Trump had criticized the jet’s current color scheme, which has changed little since the Kennedy Administration, particularly the light blue stripe that runs the length of the plane. Now there is a new potential problem to contend with: the paint job that former President Donald Trump ordered. The two new Air Force One jets currently being built by Boeing are facing costly delays. ![]()

It’s not a particularly innovative system, but it’s fun and fluid, allowing for creativity within the game. ![]() You want your corpse explosions to be bigger (It’s a long story…)? There’s a mutation for that too. You want to be able to heal every time you kill a enemy? There’s a mutation for that. You want to be able to run faster? There’s a mutation for that. Essentially upgrades in all but name, you get them every time you level up and can choose from a variety of different options. Of course no roguelike would be complete without their own little gimmick, and Nuclear Throne‘s answer to this is ‘Mutations’. The other character you start with is Crystal, a crystal (these names are pretty self-descriptive can you tell?), who gets more health and can temporarily shield himself from all oncoming bullets and enemies. You start with two characters: Fish, a (you guessed it) mutated fish who gets more ammo drops and can roll out of the way of oncoming bullets. There are multiple unlockable characters and unlockable weapons throughout the game (which I shall not be spoiling through this review since there’s no feeling quite like discovering something new in Nuclear Throne). It’s a chaotic game, one that if you’re not fast and quick with your trigger finger, you’re dead. It’s up to you to gun your way through multiple dungeons in an attempt to reach the titular Nuclear Throne and kill him. The world is in a state of post-apocalypse, you’re not fighting through the post apocalypse, you’re living in the post-apocalypse. What it does have is a basic layout of the setting, and that’s this. Nuclear Throne doesn’t really have a story. At least, that’s what a good roguelike should do, and that’s what Nuclear Throne does. ![]() The randomisation elements add to this because it means each run through the game is completely different, unique and memorable. I love the sense of scale, of adventure, that they give you. Roguelikes have always been a particular genre favourite of mine. Well, now I’m writing a review for it so you can probably tell how well that went. I thought to myself: “Ryan, you shouldn’t buy that game, you’ve got basically no money as it is.” Secondly, I saw that one of my favourite roguelikes, Nuclear Throne, was being released on Switch that same day for a price tag of merely Ten Pounds. Being the kinda person I am, I thought nothing else of it until I checked my Switch and noticed two things that caught my eye.įirstly, they were releasing Cuphead on Switch in April (a release I am extremely excited for, so check back here then for something on that).

![]() ![]() This series of tests is called a comprehensive eye exam. In general, you’ll get roughly the same set of vision and eye tests at Costco as you would anywhere else - especially when it comes to eyesight correction. But these doctors (and Costco) have an understanding that customers expect a lower exam price, so they are usually priced on the affordable side. This is how most retail stores work with eye doctors in the U.S.įor the most part, independent doctors set their own prices, which is why Costco’s eye exams aren’t the same price at every club. In a retail setting like Costco, an independent doctor is one who is associated with a particular store but practices on their own. The term “doctor of optometry” is just another name for an optometrist. Instead, they’re known as independent doctors of optometry. ![]() Optometrists at Costco versus elsewhereĮye doctors at Costco aren’t usually employees of the company. Without insurance, it’s hard to go wrong with an eye exam at a store-based vision center. If you have vision insurance, your plan could cover most or all of this fee - just be sure to verify your eligibility before your appointment. Independent optometrists associated with wholesale clubs (like Costco and Sam’s Club) charged $61 for an exam, on average.Īll locations, including non-retail locations, charged $95 on average for an eye exam - $34 more than the average wholesale club. The optometrist at your local Costco will be happy to answer any pricing questions you have before your appointment.Īccording to our survey of 100 optical centers across the country: Some doctors include dilation or retinal imaging in the cost of the exam, but contact lens fittings will always be at an additional fee. Services such as dilation, retinal imaging and contact lens fittings, if needed, can all increase the final price. How much does a Costco eye exam cost?Ī basic eye exam at Costco usually costs between $50 and $100 (without insurance) for a comprehensive eye exam for glasses. Stay mindful of a few important details and you might be able to save a nice chunk of change on your next eye exam. But getting your eyes examined at a wholesale shopping club can be a slightly different experience than you’re used to, especially if you’ve never scheduled one there before. The state.A Costco eye exam can be an affordable way to stay on top of your vision prescription and eye health.

We sell little polishing pads that are cellular foam with permanently bonded micro-abrasives that will quickly remove the build up. The most frequent question we receive is how to remove this build up. You love your jewelry, we get it, but we always recommend removing it before working out or doing household chores that cause perspiration, this will quickly dull your jewelry and you'll find the back of your pendant will look as though it's collected a layer of grime. For all of these situations you'll find that a quick wipe with a polishing cloth will return it's luster and remove any tarnish. Store your jewelry in airtight containers or a resealable plastic bag when not in use, this will protect your piece from humidity and prevent tarnishing and scratches when not in use.Ī clever little trick is to place a piece of chalk or a silica packet, (you know the kind that comes with a new pair of shoes or purse?) in your jewelry box to collect humidity and delay tarnish. And, as convenient as it may be to store your jewelry in the bathroom, this too is a bad idea. We have also found that if you live close to the ocean or in an area that is more humid, your jewelry may need extra care to keep it looking shiny and new. Fortune favors the bold and fortune favors the brave means that those who take risks often reap great rewards those who are courageous are often the most. Moisture and humidly make this happen even faster. Fortune favors the brave Fortune favors the bold Luck favors the daring Nothing ventured, nothing gained No pain, no gain. Contact with lotion, perfume, and daily perspiration will eventually take its toll on jewelry. Unfortunately, no matter what you do to protect it, metal will dull and tarnish over time. Keep in mind that most jewelry is delicate to some degree. We have a great blog post that walks you through How to Select the Perfect Necklace Chain ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() To try to keep the comparison as close as possible, we looked at a 216-square-foot veranda stateroom on Oceania and a 269-square-foot deluxe stateroom with veranda on Crystal. We looked at transatlantic cruises, comparing a 15-night, Barcelona-to-Miami sailing on Oceania Sirena in November 2019 with a 12-night, Lisbon-to-Fort Lauderdale itinerary on Crystal Serenity (also in November 2019). You'll have to crunch the numbers carefully to determine if you should take a particular Oceania voyage over a similar Crystal Cruise. There are several restaurants onboard and the same excellent selection of wine is available on Esprit as it is on Crystal Serenity and Symphony. You'll find a retractable aft marina and a small splash pool on deck. This beautifully refurbished vessel is more like a boutique hotel than a cruise ship, yet it's got the hallmarks of some fantastic sailing vessels. The yacht is staffed by 91 crew members that cater to just 62 passengers. Fewer passengers also translate to an overall higher level of service, since the crew can take more time with each person, get to know him or her and really offer customized and caring attention.Ĭrystal Esprit, the line's first yacht, is your best bet if you want to sail with a very small complement of passengers without giving up quality of service. That means passengers aboard Crystal ships have more personal space - on the pool deck, in lounges and at dinner. But - this is the important part - despite all four ships being very close in physical size, O-class ships accommodate 1,250 people each while Crystal Serenity welcomes 980 guests and Crystal Symphony accommodates 848. Oceania's O-class ships are both 785 feet long. Crystal Serenity is 820 feet long and Symphony is 781 feet long. If you happened to see one of Crystal's ships in port alongside either of Oceania's O-class ships, you'd see that they are comparable in size. Yes, cabins may be smaller than what you'll find on some newer/larger ships, and you might feel a bit more movement during rough seas, but overall Oceania's R-class ships are ideal if you want a high-end, intimate voyage.Ĭhoose Crystal if you prefer more space and personalized service. Yet each ship feels cozy, and its open-seating dining policy makes it easy for you to get to know other travelers during dinner. With a capacity for 684 passengers, there's plenty of room on the ship for an observation lounge, coffee bar, multiple restaurants, pool and even a Canyon Ranch SpaClub. These ships may be the sweet spot when it comes to size vs. Many cruisers want an intimate onboard experience and Oceania can carry that off with aplomb aboard its R-class ships: Insignia, Nautica, Regatta and Sirena. Or choose Oceania's R-class ships if you're looking for a small-ship experience. Some love that energy and connection with other passengers, while others prefer the quieter, more sophisticated tone of Crystal's dining rooms. There are more daily announcements on Oceania than Crystal (which usually has just one per day), and the main dining room aboard both O-class vessels can feel crowded and fast-paced at times. Riviera and Marina each have a capacity for 1,250 passengers and that translates into a certain hum of energy onboard. They tend to draw a slightly younger crowd than Crystal Serenity and Crystal Symphony. Oceania Riviera and Marina are Oceania's newest and largest ships. In addition, the line has three Diamond-Class ships on order the first is scheduled to launch in 2022.įor the purpose of this story, we'll focus mainly on the cruise ships.Ĭhoose Oceania's O-class if you want a newer, more boisterous ship. Its 62-passenger yacht, Crystal Esprit (2015), will soon be joined by Crystal Endeavour, a polar-class mega-yacht debuting in August 2020. Insignia's updates are slated for December 2018, with Sirena following in May 2019, Regatta in September 2019 and Nautica in June 2020.Ĭrystal currently has two cruise ships: the 848-passenger Crystal Symphony (launched 1995) and 980-passenger Crystal Serenity (2003), both of which now accommodate fewer passengers after refurbishments in 20, respectively. ![]() Oceania is pumping $100 million into the refreshing of its R-class vessels, including redesigned staterooms and suites, new decor in shipboard restaurants, and updated bars and lounges. The cruise line's OceaniaNEXT refurbishment program is currently underway. ![]() The newer, larger ships offer more bells and whistles than their smaller, older siblings. The two newer, 1,250-passenger O-class ships were built specifically for the cruise line Marina launched in 2011 (refurbished in 2016), and Riviera launched in 2012 (refurbished in 2015). The four 684-passenger, older-yet-beloved R-class ships - Insignia, Nautica, Regatta and Sirena - joined the Oceania fleet in 1998, 2000, 20, respectively. The Oceania Cruises fleet includes six ships. ![]() |
