Chime is time scheduler which works on Vert.x event bus and provides:
>Compiled for Ceylon 1.2.2 and Vert.x 3.2.2
Deploy Chime using
import io.vertx.ceylon.core { vertx } vertx.vertx().deployVerticle ( "ceylon:herd.schedule.chime/0.1.1", (String|Throwable res) { ... } );
>Chime exchanges events with customers via event bus with
Following parameters could be specified in
Chime operates by two structures: timer and scheduler.
Scheduler messages.
In order to maintain schedulers send
{ "operation" -> String // operation code, mandatory "name" -> String // scheduler name, mandatory "state" -> String // state, mandatory only if operation = 'state' }
>Chime listens event bus on "scheduler name" address with messages for the given scheduler.
Scheduler operation codes.
Scheduler examples.
// create new scheduler with name "scheduler name" JSON message = JSON { "operation" -> "create", "name" -> "scheduler name" } // change state of scheduler with "scheduler name" on paused JSON message = JSON { "operation" -> "state", "name" -> "scheduler name", "state" -> "paused" }
Scheduler response.
Chime responds on messages in
{ "response" -> String // response code - one of "ok" or "error" "name" -> String // scheduler name "state" -> String // scheduler state "schedulers" -> JSONArray // scheduler names, exists as response on "info" operation with no "name" field "error" -> String // error description, exists only if response == "error" }
Once shceduler is created timers can be run within.
There are two ways to access specific timer:
>Timer full name is scheduler name and timer name separated with ':', i.e. "scheduler name:timer name".
>Request on Chime address with timer full name and request on scheduler address with timer full or short name
are equivalent.
Timer request.
Request has to be sent in
{ "operation" -> String // operation code, mandatory "name" -> String // timer short or full name, mandatory "state" -> String // state, nonmandatory, except if operation = 'sate' // fields for create operation: "maximum count" -> Integer // maximum number of fires, default - unlimited "publish" -> Boolean // if true message to be published and to be sent otherwise, nonmandatory "start time" -> JSON // start time, nonmadatory, if doesn't exist timer will start immediately { "seconds" -> Integer // seconds, mandatory "minutes" -> Integer // minutes, mandatory "hours" -> Integer // hours, mandatory "day of month" -> Integer // days of month, mandatory "month" -> Integer or String // months, mandatory "year" -> Integer // year, mandatory } "end time" -> `JSON` // end time, nonmadatory, default no end time { "seconds" -> Integer // seconds, mandatory "minutes" -> Integer // minutes, mandatory "hours" -> Integer // hours, mandatory "day of month" -> Integer // days of month, mandatory "month" -> Integer or String // months, mandatory "year" -> Integer // year, mandatory } "time zone" -> String // time zone ID, nonmandatory, default server local "description" -> JSON // timer desciption, mandatoty for create operation }
>Chime address could be specified in
Timer operation codes.
>Timer fires only if both timer and scheduler states are running.
Supported timers.
Timer is specified within description field of timer creation request.
>Interval timer delay is in seconds
Scheduler response on timer request.
Chime responds on each request in
{ "response" -> String // response code - one of `ok` or `error` "name" -> String // timer name "state" -> String // state "error" -> String // error description, exists only if response == `error` "timers" -> JSONArray // list of timer names currently scheduled - response on info operation with no name field specified // 'Info' operation returns fields from 'create' operation }
Timer firing.
When timer fires it sends or publishes
{ "name" -> String, timer name "count" -> Integer, total number of fire times "state" -> String, timer state, one of 'running', 'paused' or 'completed' "time" -> String formated time / date "seconds" -> Integer, number of seconds since last minute "minutes" -> Integer, number of minutes since last hour "hours" -> Integer, hour of day "day of month" -> Integer, day of month "month" -> Integer, month "year" -> Integer, year "time zone" -> String, time zone ID }
>Timer full name is scheduler name and timer name separated with ':', i.e. "scheduler name:timer name".
>Timer sends or publishes message depending on "publish" field in timer description (passed at timer creation request).
>String formatted time / date is per ISO 8601.

Timer example.
// creat new Scheduler with name "schedule manager" at first and then the timer eventBus.send<JSON> ( "chime", JSON { "operation" -> "create", "name" -> "schedule manager", "state" -> "running" }, (Throwable|Message<JSON> msg) { if (is Message<JSON> msg) { // create timer eventBus.send<JSON>( "chime", JSON { "operation" -> "create", "name" -> "schedule manager:scheduled timer", // full timer name == address to listen timer "state" -> "running", "publish" -> false, // timer will send messages "max count" -> 3, "time zone" -> "Europe/Paris", "descirption" -> JSON { "type" -> "cron", // timer type is 'cron' "seconds" -> "27/30", // 27 with step 30 leads to fire at 27 and 57 seconds "minutes" -> "*", // every minute "hours" -> "0-23", // every hour "days of month" -> "1-31", // every day "months" -> "january-OCTOBER", // from January and up to October "days of week" -> "sat#2,sunday", // at second Saturday and at each Sunday "years" -> "2015-2019" } }, (Throwable|Message<JSON> msg) { print(msg); // Chime replies if timer successfully created or some error occured } ); } else { print("time scheduler creation error: ``msg``"); } } ); // listen timer eventBus.consumer ( "schedule manager:scheduled timer", (Throwable | Message<JSON> msg) { ... } );
Error messages.
When error occured Chime replies on corresponding message with error:

The Tips In This Article About Woodworking Are For You
It is so exciting to get started with woodworking. Regardless of your project focus, creating things using wood is respected by many.Although it isn't easy, there is a lot to learn along the way that will help you to better understand how it all works. With a good amount of practice, you can make just about anything that is pride-worthy.
Use pre-stain wood conditioner if you plan on staining your project. A good pre-stain conditioner helps keep away any irregularities or blotches in the wood. These conditioners help the stain penetrate evenly and keep the wood.
Test the stain in your project. This way you won't run into any surprises later if the stain's color looks different when it is applied.
Stir your finishes or stains before using them. Some of the ingredients in these stains and finishes tend to settle over time. Shaking can cause bubbling and lead to uneven mixing. Be sure you stir it up until everything that has settled is blended in evenly.
When you are creating a woodworking budget, remember to itemize tools that you have to buy. You may overlook that when you think about how much wood will cost. If you don't have a tool, they can make you go over your budget.
You should have at least a working knowledge about the different types of wood available to you and their characteristics. Each type of wood has its own characteristics. Different cuts will also splinter in unique ways.You will also see a wide range of wood grains. All of these factors will influence the way you work on your wood project.
Don't always rely on a tape measure. Cutting on scrap wood first is always a great idea and means you can test a fitting out first. Having variety of ways you from mental boredom.
Have lots of light in your work space. You need to be very accurate when you work with wood.
Soft wood isn't ideal for table top use as it will scratch very easily. Keep in mind that different wood types will display different colors when they get finished.
Stay in contact with friends and family. Your shop likely is your personal space and doesn't have Internet. There will be times when you get stumped on a project flummoxes you. You are always likely won't come across an issue that you are dealing with.
Use some kits made for woodworking when you are a beginner. These kits come with pre-cut pieces that are put together to make a certain project. This is a great way to introduce yourself to the joys of woodworking. This will also save money going forward because it shows you how to avoid costly mistakes.
There are some essential hand tools you should purchase before beginning your first woodworking project. A hammer is a good first tool you should invest in. A claw hammer is one of the best for woodworking.Choose the one that sits well in your hand. You won't want to be using a hammer that will be too heavy.
Make sure you have enough lighting in your woodworking area has lots of light. Whenever you paint, sand or stain, you need a lot of light. This will also help you see any areas that need extra sanding is necessary.
Stair gauges make excellent circular saws. Normally a stair gauge to figure out the run and rise of your stair jack so you can match up the notches. However, if you use them on your carpenter square's tongue, you will have a useful guide when using the circular saw.
It is now time to put these tips to use. You can always be learning more about this craft. Woodworking takes dedication and patience, so don't be discouraged.

One of the frequent questions builders ask is "Where can I find land to build a modular home?" The land you choose for a modular home building project will affect the final curb appeal and resale value of the property. That's why it's important to know how to find land for a modular home.
You have three options: to add the modular home to an existing property, to tear down the building on an existing lot or to find a new lot to build the home. At Westchester Modular Homes, we can provide our professional expertise and decades of experience to help you build a home that will attract good returns in any of these following categories.
Modular room add-ons are cost-effective, energy-efficient and functional. You can use them to quickly expand a building even when you don't want to make a huge investment. This will increase your client's comfort and allow you to raise the resale value of the entire property. At Westchester Modular, we help you become one of our builders, so you can grow your business and enjoy higher revenue.
As a Westchester builder partner, you'll also enjoy:
- Faster project completion time and quick turnaround
- On-site training on how to build a modular home
- Free exposure that brings in more clients
- More leads on prospective customers
- High-quality modular home products that stand out among competing brands
You can buy a new site or a building subdivision purely for a modular home. As a builder, you can take advantage of the relatively low cost of construction and the durability of modular homes to provide better homes for your customers.
To buy land where your modular home will attract high-net-worth buyers and appreciate in value:
- Look for land in a neighborhood with a good school district, ease of commuting for workers and good recreational facilities.
- Choose a lot with a size that's suitable for the square footage of the modular home you want to build.
- Select a flat plot when you plan to add a play area for children or a swimming pool.
- Choose a sloping plot of land when there are drainage issues and you want to bring light into the basement.
Tearing Down or Rebuilding
When a home has been badly damaged by fire, storm or flooding, it may be better to pull it down and build a completely new modular home on the land. This will allow you to take advantage of a developed neighborhood and build a cost-effective, eco-friendly home for your clients. Tearing down and rebuilding is also a great option if your client has their heart set on living in a certain area but is having difficulty finding an empty lot sufficient for a modular home.
Building a completely new structure allows you to:
- Avoid the higher costs of remodeling and dubious construction timelines
- Get modular homes built faster than conventional stick-built homes
- Include innovations and energy-efficient features that may be too costly or almost impossible with a remodeled home
- Comply with all building codes and build a home that will appreciate in value
- Give your client their dream home in their choice of location
For more in-depth knowledge and information on how to find land to build a modular home, please contact us now. We're ready to provide our professional advice to all prospective modular home builders.

Weekend Recap: Broccoli City Festival
East coasters can finally kick the Coachella FOMO with the first of many warm weather festivals to come: Broccoli City Festival. Kicking off the season this weekend we popped down to Washington, D.C for the sixth annual BC Festival celebration. This years headliners were Milk fave Migos, musical heart-throb Miguel, the controversial Nipsey Hussle, and performing the last show of her pregnancy, "Bodak Yellow" phenomenon Cardi B. We also heard hits from Daniel Caesar, H.E.R, Rich The Kid, Hood Celebrityy and DMV's own Lightshow. The festival was packed with 30,000 urban music lovers moving back and forth from the performing stage to DJ sets where the crowd danced to Trillectro and music collective Grits and Biscuits' idiosyncratic mixes.
Broccoli City featured a number of vendors, too, including food trucks ranging from organic kale burgers by Goganics to Connie's Fried Chicken and Waffles. Crowds swarmed to connect and purchase merch from local clothing lines including EAT, Paradyce, and The Cultured Savage. Beauty fans stopped in their tracks to get their nails blessed by nail wizards at Nail Candy Shop's tent. Planned Parenthood came to BC Fest with the message of "Stand with Black Women" to reinforce their support within the black community and encourage volunteerism. The Planned Parenthood section included free "Stand with Black Women" branded tote bags, T-shirts, buttons, stickers, PopSockets as well as a GIF photo-booth to spread their message on audience members social media platforms.
BC Fest isn't your average flower headband-wearing festival; their mission is to raise awareness within the urban community about healthy, sustainable, eco-conscious living. Next year, come through and show your support, eat some good food, and check out some of hip hop's hottest artists.

Stay tuned to Milk for more festival recaps.

I am with Jims' Place in Vernon. We started a couple of weeks ago, and the response has been quite positive.
We started by just advertising on a sign on the side of our restaurant. People noticed it from the highway, and came in to inquire. Since then we have had several repeat customers from up and down the valley, from Salmon Arm to west Kelowna. The reviews have been good, and we are encouraged to provide more product.
What we provide is a 12 inch gluten-free crust (rice based) that is made for us by Valarosa in Kelowna. They also provide us with a triple strained tomato pizza sauce that is made in Italy, absolutely nothing but tomatoes, no dyes or preservatives. It is called Casar.
We have also been in touch with a lady in Salmon Arm who is willing to provide us with a deep dish crust that will be available to us within the next little while. Our gluten-free toppings include all fresh veggies, tomatoes, green peppers, onions, sun dried tomatoes, pineapple, mushrooms, olives, banana peppers, jalapenos and new grilled vegetables such as eggplant and yellow peppers.
We have fresh grilled chicken, sirloin and a gluten-free 100% lean ground beef, all made off premises. Freybe sausage in Vancouver is supplying us with sliced pepperettes, cervalet salami and capicolla ham, all gluten-free of course.
We cook the gluten-free on its own pans, in its own oven, cut on their own cutting board with a special knife. The pizza paddle is even exclusive to gluten-free product only.
The greatest of care is taken so no chance of cross contamination. We pride ourselves in that. The pizza is then placed in the box with a wax paper insert on the bottom. The feedback has been very positive. We are now connected to Facebook thru our website.
Our website is www.jimsplacepizza.com The site is very comprehensive and easy to navigate.
We have worked diligently to try to satisfy a need for a gluten-free product in Vernon. We feel we have done our homework and we are confident we have a good product.
The pricing is $16.95 for a 12 in pizza, cut into 8 slices. It is more than a conventional 12 inch but as you probably know the cost is quite substantially more when buying gluten-free ingredients.
Jim's Place is located at 1600 32nd Avenue [Highway 97] just across up the hill from the hospital. You can call them at

A UC Riverside student asked campus police Friday to arrest a fellow Highlander who allegedly grabbed his Make America Great Again hat from his head and verbally attacked him with profanity-filled accusations of promoting "genocide."
A video of the young woman's actions against Matthew Vitale, a senior majoring in economics, drew heavy coverage by conservative media outlets that painted it as another assault on the free speech rights of right-leaning college students. The video was first posted Thursday by Campus Reform, a conservative news site.
Many conservative students say efforts to silence them have escalated since President Trump's election last year. Massive protests shut down campus talks by right-wing firebrand Milo Yiannopoulos at UC Davis and UC Berkeley this year and led to unprecedented security costs for other speakers, such as conservative writer Ben Shapiro.
Vitale said Friday that UC Riverside's generally mellow campus climate has hardened in recent months.

National Portfolio DayNovember 12th, 2007 at 8:29 am
Another gallery on the site: photos from National Portfolio Day 2007 at RIT. This past Saturday a group of us CIAS Honors students sold concessions at the event that garners hundreds of visitors from high schools in the western New York for portfolio reviews. Our honors group was selling food, drinks, and candy to raise money for a trip to several cities in Europe this coming spring. We plan on visiting any alumni we can and studying culture and architecture in Prague, Krakow, and Budapest. In the meantime, it's exam week here at RIT. In just a few more days I'll be heading home for the Fall/Thanksgiving break. It has been a busy quarter, and I have plenty planned for the break…so not much will change 🙂

Selling your car is one of those things that you don't regularly do during your lifetime, so when it came to me selling mine I decided to search online to see if I could find any tips or advice for selling cars, hoping that one or two good tips could help me get the best price.
Whilst searching I stumbled across a website called sellmycar.org which may solve the stress of advertising and finding a buyer willing to pay my valuation of the car.
The site is a fairly simple one, you start by entering your car registration details on their online form at the top of the page, all you need do then is provide them with some details about the condition of your car and it's milage. Sell My Car then reply to you with their valuation, at that point you can obviously choose to accept it or not. Should you decide the offer is a fair valuation then you can schedule an appointment with them.
Of course they will inspect the car to ensure the details you provided were accurate, they will also review the documents and assuming that is all fine they'll pay your money and complete the sale.
To be honest, the system is a great idea for anyone who doesn't want to spend money advertising and have strangers calling your personal phone and coming around to your address and inspecting your car on the driveway, you may also be uncomfortable with strangers handing over payment.
So if you are considering selling your car, or would like some more advice, then I recommend you take a look at www.sellmycar.org and take a read of their website and what it offers.

WARNING: Video contains disturbing language.
A widely viewed video of a woman standing in line at a JCPenney in Louisville, Kentucky, going on a racist tirade against a Spanish-speaking woman who added a last-minute transaction has prompted a response from the mall where the incident took place.
In a video posted by Renee Buckner on Facebook Tuesday, a woman is shown yelling at another woman and her friend, using racial slurs, cursing and telling them to "go back to where they belong."
"This Hispanic lady was purchasing items and the transaction was almost complete, then her friend brings up some shirts to be added to her purchase instead of getting in line," Buckner wrote in the Facebook post. "And this lady went off!!!"
At one point, the woman could be heard telling the other individuals to, "Speak English. You're in America. If you don't know it, learn it."
At points in the video, the woman turns to other shoppers waiting in line in an apparent effort to try to get them to back her up. Buckner wrote that the video doesn't show the entire scene, and that people attempted to let the woman know she was out of line, "but she wasn't hearing that."
Jefferson Mall officials released a statement to television station WAVE in Louisville on the incident:
We are aware of the video posted online today from inside JCPenney. … Jefferson Mall strives to create a comfortable and convenient experience for all of our guests and we absolutely do not condone this type of behavior. We will work with JCPenney to identify this woman and once identified, she will be permanently banned from Jefferson Mall, per our Behavioral Code of Conduct.

The Arts Club's production of Misery is a journey straight to heck and back.
It's not scary, which is a flaw in a thriller.
William Goldman, who wrote the play, also penned the screenplay for the1990 movie. Both are based on a book by Stephen King. In the story, a romance novelist named Paul Sheldon has just finished a more artistically ambitious—possibly pretentious—manuscript, when his car careens off the side of a mountain during a Colorado snowstorm. Suffering a dislocated shoulder and severely broken legs, he is rescued by Annie Wilkes, a former nurse, who takes him back to her house in the woods, tends to his injuries, and declares herself his number-one fan.
Annie promises to get Paul to a hospital the moment the roads clear, but it soon becomes apparent that she's obsessed and she plans to keep him captive. When Annie discovers that Paul has killed off her favourite character, she becomes enraged—and psychotically sadistic. A whole lot of the "entertainment" in Misery derives from the suffering that she inflicts on Paul. [Read more…]

SIBU: Visit Sibu Year (VSY) 2017 will open up Sibu and the central region to the world.
Sibu Municipal Council (SMC) deputy chairman Dato Andrew Wong said Sibu would be used as the gateway to open up the central region.
"We will open up all the way from Sarikei to Bintangor to Kapit. I hope that with everyone's support, we will make VSY 2017 a tremendous successful next year," he said at the launching of VSY 2017 at Sibu Town Square on Saturday night.
"Tonight (Saturday night) is the starting point with which Sibu will showcase what it has to offer to the world."
The event was officiated at by Sarawak Tourism Minister Datuk Amar Abang Johari Tun Openg on behalf of Chief Minister Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Adenan Satem.
Meanwhile, Tourism and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Nazri Abdul Aziz said Sibu was one of the active tourism zones in the state,
He said the Borneo Cultural Festival (BCF) and Sibu International Dance Festival (SIDF) had gained overwhelming popularity over the years, thus contributing to the local economy.
He added that Sibu also had many attractions that could attract both domestic and foreign tourists.
"The uniqueness of culture and people from different races and backgrounds living harmoniously can be one of the attractions to attract tourists.
"Apart from that, the variety of food in Sibu, such as Kampua, Mee Sua, Prawn Noodles and Pulut Panggang are also good for food tourism here in Sibu," he said in his speech that was read by his ministry's secretary general Tan Sri Dr Ong Hong Peng.
According to him, tourism had been highlighted in the Economic Transformation Program (ETP) as one of the 12 National Key Economic Areas (NKEA) towards propelling the nation to achieve Vision 2020.
"In this regard, Sibu, with abundant flora and fauna, is ideal to be packaged under Nature Adventure cluster."
Nazri said his ministry had always welcomed the state government's efforts in promoting Sarawak as one of the main tourism destinations in the country.

Occasionally, a Stranger writer actually writes a review that I agree with completely.

The author is particularly keen in pinning down the single biggest failure of the TV series: The lack of dildos for comedic effect.

Hi guys.
My PC shut downs by itself, can be 15min, 30min,..... after i start it and always when i start game for example CoD MW2.
PC: motherboard GeForce 7050M-M, AMD Athlon(tm) 64*2 Dual Core Proc. 5000+ 2,60 GHz
1GB RAM, 64 bit Vista
It start happening when i instaled new graphic card GeForce 8500 GT 1GB. When i remove card every thing is back to normal. But i need this graphic card for games.
Please help.
I think psu can't handle the load. 8500gt use 30w (2.5A) underload may be u have alot of components.
What can i do about it? If you can please give me a solution to this, becouse i tryed everything i can think of. May be i did not disable my on board video card propaly? I tryed many things, like updating drivers,but with the same result. I am runing out of option. What i am doin wrong? You know, i can play the game after it shut downs like 5-8 times, but it is not right. Clan it be conflict betvin my motherboard and graphick card?
Please HELP
1. post your power supply specs - make/model, wattage & amperages. If you don't know, open the case & get them off the label.
2. the 8500GT is better than the onboard video, but it's not a gaming card.
power supply spec. :
make OCTIGEN , model no# 116196psotg atx 400w
AC~input 115v~50/60Hz 230v~10A/5A Hz
DC -- output +3.3V/26A +5V/30A +12V/12A -12V/0.8A -5V/0.5A +5VSB/2A

Thank you, i very apreciate you help and time. I hope that is going to sort my problems.
Why 8500GT 1GB graphic card is not a gaiming card, because on the box it is saying it is good for it and it supports DirectX10.
all newer psu's must have sata power cable.
8500gt isn't a gaming card but it's capable of running newer games (medium or low settings). If u want to enjoy games u better upgrade the v-card (atleast 9600gt or 9800gt or 250gts).

Sipulikanava website shut down on drug offence charges
Published : 08 Jun 2018, 02:49
Updated : 08 Jun 2018, 02:53
DF Report
The website of Sipulikanava has been closed down on charge of online drug smuggling.
Finnish Customs, in cooperation with the police on November 1, 2017 closed down the Sipulikanava website, which was active on the Tor network, said an official press release on Thursday.
The investigation is in the final stages and the matter will be submitted to the Prosecutor's Office of Itä-Uusimaa for consideration of charges.
Sipulikanava was a Finnish website through which very large quantities of narcotics were sold, purchased and distributed around Finland during 2014-2017, said Customs.
The suspects are two Finnish individuals who are suspected of committing an aggravate narcotics offence as well as aiding and abetting in an aggravated narcotics offence.
The suspected offences now under investigation involve 37 previous cases of aggravated narcotics offences that, based on the preliminary investigation, were carried out during 2016-2017 when narcotics were sold and purchased via the market section of Sipulikanava.
Customs became interested in the Sipulikanava operation and its administration in 2017, when it became apparent that a person using the pseudonym Ekstaasikauppa, who had previously been investigated, had obtained via Sipulikanava some of the narcotics sold; this after Customs had apprehended the persons behind the pseudonym Douppingkauppa in 2016.
The person who used the name Ekstaasikauppa had contacted the narcotics dealer via a narcotics sales advertisement on Sipulikanava and had via an instant messaging service arranged for the delivery of the narcotics.
On 31 October-1 November 2017 in Vantaa, Customs together with the National Bureau of Investigation and the Special Investigations Unit of the Helsinki Police Department, searched the home of the persons suspected of being responsible for Sipulikanava.
A large amount of technical evidence in connection with Sipulikanava and its maintenance was reproduced during the search of the home, and a small quantity of narcotics was seized.
Furthermore, the personal web server of the main suspect was seized from his workplace. The server was believed to be a backup server for Sipulikanava. The employer of the main suspect is not suspected of any criminal offence. The employer has not been aware of any activity by the suspect involving Sipulikanava.
Sipulikanava was founded on 13 March 2014, and over the years it became one of the most significant Finnish websites engaged in narcotics trade in the Tor network.
The structure of the website was a discussion forum with a lot of legitimate content. However, the person maintaining Sipulikanava had already in the beginning created a so-called market section, where narcotics were sold actively and openly.
The way the website worked was that the narcotics dealer placed a sales advertisement on the website with a picture and description of the narcotic on sale, the quantity and price as well as the seller's instant messaging ID. Furthermore, the buyer was able to place a want ad with information on which narcotics they wished to buy and provided their instant messaging ID. The instant messaging application was used in agreeing on the quantities of narcotics to be sold, and on deliveries. During 2016, the person maintaining the website edited the market place so that the narcotics advertisements were divided into different city or area based sections. This made it much easier for buyers and sellers of narcotics to meet.
The person maintaining Sipulikanava, a 45 year old IT professional, is suspected of an aggravated narcotics offence, namely distributing narcotics in the market section of Sipulikanava during 2014 - 2017.
The case in question is the first one in Finland's criminal history where an administrator of a website on the Tor network is suspected of distributing narcotics through the site.

Joseph Fiennes
Birth Name: Joseph Alberic Twisleton-Wykeham-Fiennes
Place of Birth: Salisbury, Wiltshire, England, U.K.
Date of Birth: 27 May, 1970
Ethnicity: English, Northern Irish, Irish, Scottish
Joseph Fiennes is an English actor. He is known for his portrayal of William Shakespeare in Shakespeare in Love.
Joseph is the son of Mark Twisleton-Wykeham-Fiennes, a farmer and photographer, from Dalton, Northumberland, and Jennifer Anne Mary Alleyne (Lash), a writer, from Chichester, Sussex. The Fiennes are a prominent family. His brother is actor Ralph Fiennes and his nephew is actor and model Hero Fiennes Tiffin. Ralph stated during his interview on Inside the Actors Studio (2006) that the surname Fiennes is of Norman origin.
Joseph's recent (as well as relatively recent) ancestry consists of English, Northern Irish, Irish, and Scottish. Many of his ancestors had been born in India, during the time of British colonialism there.
Joseph is married to María Dolores Diéguez, a Swiss model of Spanish origin. They have two children.
Joseph's paternal grandfather was Maurice Alberic Twisleton-Wykeham-Fiennes (the son of Alberic Arthur Twisleton-Wykeham-Fiennes and Gertrude Theodosia Colley). Maurice was born in Brentford, Middlesex, England, and was a prominent industrialist. Joseph's great-grandfather Alberic was the son of Wingfield Stratford Twisleton-Wykeham-Fiennes and Alice Susan Yorke. Gertrude was the daughter of Henry FitzGeorge/Fitzroy Pomeroy Colley and Elizabeth Isabella Wingfield.
Joseph's paternal grandmother was Sylvia Joan Finlay (the daughter of David Finlay).
Joseph's maternal grandfather was Henry Alleyne Lash (the son of Nicholas Alleyne Lash and Violet Maud Keely). Henry, a British colonial officer, was born in Calcutta, India. Nicholas was born in India, the son of Augustus Henry Lash and Alicia Elizabeth De Clare Quinlan, who were both born in Ireland. Violet was born in Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, England, to English parents George Philipps Keely and Angela Fisher.
Joseph's maternal grandmother was Joan Mary Moore (the daughter of Pierce Langrishe Moore and Muriel Strange). Joan was born in Bangalore, India. Pierce was born in India, the son of John Lewis Moore and Edith Katherine Johnston, who had English ancestry. Joseph's great-grandmother Muriel was born in London, England, and was the daughter of Lumisden Strange, who was born in India, and had English, Scottish, and Northern Irish ancestry; and of Alice Sybil Rideout. Joseph's great-great-grandmother Alice was also born in India, the daughter of John Wood Rideout and Amy Ledwell Taylor, and was also of English descent.
Joseph's matrilineal line can be traced to Sibella/Sybilla Dickson, who was born, c. 1742, in Somerset, England, and to her mother, Anne Carteret Dickson.

February 13, 2006, my first born baby made me a mommy. Lee Kenneth Partiss III, was born still at 38 weeks weighing 7.5 lbs. Delivering a stillborn baby was devastating. The March of Dimes research supports finding answers so that not one more family has to face what Lee and I did. I participate in the March of Dimes "March For Babies" every year in memory of every baby that has been lost, for the devastated families that they leave behind, and in memory of Kenny. The funds we raise in WalkAmerica support research that saves babies' lives.. Together we can help the March of Dimes fight prematurity so more babies can get the strongest start possible. I have come so far and I am honored to be able to give back and celebrate in my sons memory. While I miss Kenny everyday, I find strength from the memories we have created for him and the ways in which we continue to honor him. Whether it has been through the support we provide to the March of Dimes, or providing support to families who have experienced miscarriage or stillbirth through Share Atlanta under the guidance of Marcia McGinnis.
The most important way we have honored Kenny's life has been through our love for our rainbow twin babies, Madi & Nicky. We are thankful for each and every moment we spend with them. One of the many reasons they are here today is thanks to the experience and education of our doctors. MODs helps provide our doctors with the resources they need to help our babies.
For the past 13 years, I have walked in honor of Kenny with the March of Dimes, March for Babies. Kenny's siblings, grammies, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends CELEBRATE him and the good that comes from supporting the March of Dimes. Through everyone's overwhelming support, I have been a "Top Walker," every year. This year I hope to be a "Top Walker" again. Please honor Kenny, and donate so other babies may live. If you want to donate to help me reach my goal, I would be so thankful! Making a secure donation is easy: just click the 'donate now' button on this page. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me give babies a healthy start!
Two babies die every hour in the U.S. And about every 12 hours a woman dies as a result of complications from pregnancy.
It's not fine. That's why we March for Babies.
We march to end maternal death. We march for babies born too soon. We march for babies we have lost. We march for moms-to-be. And we march for health equity.
Join the fight for healthy moms and strong babies, and make a difference for families everywhere!

This recipe is so easy. I am not a fudge person but I figure anything with caramel and toffee has got to be good. :o)
3 cups Milk chocolate chips
1 can sweetened condensed milk
7 OUNCES Kraft's Caramels ( Used the caramel bits) (1/2 BAG), I melted in microwave with 1T. heavy cream!!!
1/2 cup, coarsely chopped pecans (I TOASTED them in the oven 350 for a couple of minutes!!! ADDS AWESOME FLAVOR!)
1/2 cup toffee bits
1. In a medium saucepan, mix together the white chocolate chips and the sweetened condensed milk over low heat. Stir until melted and smooth.
2. Pour into a 9x9 dish lined with nonstick foil.
3. Pour the melted caramel over the fudge and use a knife or spatula to marble throughout the fudge. Scoop some of the fudge from the bottom on top of the caramel so it's mixed well from top to bottom.
4. Add chopped pecans and toffee bits. I swirled them through just a drop.
5. Chill for at least an hour. Cut into squares and enjoy

TRUCKEE — Snow has started to fall in Truckee and it's expected to continue into early next week.
Though by Friday evening accumulations were minimal, travelers are preparing for what's likely to be a winter mess.
"I've sat in traffic for two to three hours going ten miles going from Squaw to Truckee. That's not fun," said Kellee Rich from Truckee.
And those who live up on the mountain know all too well how quickly road conditions can change.
"The plan is to avoid main highways at all costs because it's just going to be very crowded with everyone coming up to ski and snowboard," Rich said. "I understand why everyone wants to come here because it's beautiful but just be careful. That's my only recommendation."
With a winter weather warning in effect until Tuesday and several feet of snow expected to fall, locals say the best way to get ahead of the storm is to prepare.
"For timing, it's always sooner the better especially when it comes to snow storm," said Duke Walton of Kingvale. "Everyone's getting prepared now, making sure they're all stocked up, groceries done."
But the snow didn't stop some visitors from making the trip up to the Sierra.
Jennifer Michael is traveling all the way from Kentucky to enjoy a weekend on the slopes.
"We skied today at Squaw and then tomorrow and we will look at the snow report and find out where it's not too windy and hopefully get out of here on Monday or Tuesday," she said.
Helping drivers like Jennifer stay safe is Caltrans, who will be out monitoring conditions all weekend long to keep the roads as clear as possible.
"We deal with quite a bit of travelers who think they can make it and we're going to do our best to try to keep the roads open and safe for them," said Greg Dealba, Donner Pass Superintendent.
Crews are currently staging along the main roads, ready to plow where needed.
There are also trucks standing by ready to spray sand for traction.

Employers need help to be ready for no deal
9 August 2019
After months of being told that it was the least likely option, businesses have in recent days been faced with ever more urgent warnings that, in the words of Michael Gove (who is now in charge of preparations), a no-deal Brexit is now a very real prospect.
This has clearly alarmed the CBI, which has been arguing for months that this would be the worst possible outcome for jobs and for the UK economy.
It has now produced What comes next? The business analysis of no deal preparations, which includes 200 recommendations to help accelerate no-deal preparations for UK, EU and companies.
The CBI argues that neither the UK nor the EU are ready for no deal, so it has listed these practical steps which both sides, and businesses, can take to reduce the worst effects.
As thousands of employers have built their businesses on the ability to easily move staff across the Channel — whether to carry out short-term work, provide "fly-in-fly-out" services, or go on longer-term secondments — the effect of no deal on people is just as important as the effect on trade, it insists.
Taking care of employees
In its recommendations of particular interest to these employers, the CBI highlights that, while some of the filters the Government has applied to its no-deal advice are sensible, for example dividing by sector or area, to be truly business-friendly they should focus on essentials.
In particular, it suggests that they should allow filtering by role, so that HR directors can access information about EU employees easily and chief financial officers can access information about tax and tariffs, without worrying about other elements.
If no deal occurs, the CBI insists, then both sides must prioritise people.
For example, business' internal communications processes should be geared towards reaching out and reassuring employees affected by Brexit. It will be important to have communications prepared and signed off in advance of no deal occurring, in order to be ready to send very quickly to this audience, the CBI argues.
Some of the steps that businesses have found to be effective with EU citizen employees in the UK include sharing Government advice with staff in regular updates as it is produced, and undertaking efforts to buddy EU citizens with lower levels of English language skills with native speakers.
Comment by Croner Associate Director Paul Holcroft
With this continued Brexit uncertainty, it is crucial that employers take steps to be ready for a no deal and do not underestimate the impact that this could have on their staff.
Employees may be concerned over what this could mean for their job stability and will be increasingly looking to their employer for reassurance for what a no deal will mean.
While we wait to see what will happen come October, I would advise employers to focus their attention on upskilling their current staff by identifying those with potential and providing training to help them progress in the company.

iSoftBet announced the newest slot to its portfolio called Booster. The new Booster slot features a wheel of fortune type mechanic with random bonus.
iSoftBet recently announced its latest addition to its slot game portfolio called Booster. The new Booster slot showcases high-fidelity graphics and an interesting bonus mode.
One of the top game providers in the industry, iSoftbet has been releasing several new slots throughout the year. This includes Beetle Jewels slot and Forest Mania slot, both of which feature colorful graphics. All of these games are available in Bitcoin casinos that host the slot games from iSoftbet.
Michael Probert, the Head of Business Development of iSoftBet, says
"Our mission is to provide our partners with an ever-changing and broad spectrum of compelling content, and Booster is an exciting new addition to our portfolio."
Competitive features of Booster slot
The new Booster slot uses five reels and 25 pay lines, and it pays homage to 70s Vegas-style slots by using classic symbols like the 7s and BARs.
Despite using classic symbols, Booster is going for a modern look. This includes the use of a moving space environment as its background. It also makes use of atmospheric techno music for its background sound.
The biggest draw of Booster is its bonus mode. Players can trigger this feature by getting three or more bonus symbols on the reels. During the bonus mode, players can activate various bonuses. Players can get these prizes: 6,000 coins, 100 free spins, or 10 free spins with an added 3X multiplier.
During this mode, there is a mystery panel that has a question mark on it. Landing on this panel can unlock more bonuses. Some of these provide more spins, multipliers, or higher prize amounts than the regular panels.
Other latest iSoftBet slots
Booster slot is just one of the many new slots from iSoftBet. Some of the other new iSoftBet slots include Robo Smash which has an interesting feature that has two clashing robots. When two particular robots show on the first and fifth reels, the two symbols gradually move toward the center of the reel. When the two symbols meet in the center, the symbols turn into a stacked wild symbol that covers the entire reel. The stacked wild symbols will also give players two free spins and score multipliers.
The other noteworthy slot from iSoftBet is the Forest Mania slot. The first thing that a new player will notice about this slot is its massive 10-reel structure. The first reel is a standard 5×4 reel and the second is a 5×12 reel. Because of the structure of the reels, the game uses 100 pay lines.
What draws people to this game is the group of three critters at the bottom of the first reel. When another critter drops a coin from the top of the first reel, the three critters will fight for the coin. The winner will determine the bonus mode. These bonus modes can turn symbols into wild ones as well as provide a set of free spins to the player. Forest Mania's bonus mode is triggered by random during the normal and bonus mode of the game.

Extended Reality and the Changing Face of Medicine
Alassane Soumare | January 31, 2019
As both virtual and augmented reality (VR & AR) platforms are gaining a drastic surge in popularity, it's only natural that their focus would expand from the entertainment industry to a wider net into other fields. Both AR and VR are far from new technologies, however the main difference, besides the beefier specs and overall size of the devices is price and accessibility. Hardware had always been a barrier to entry and currently with all the competition between companies it has never been a better time to fiscally take the plunge.
Amongst the various industries prime for the use of extended reality lies the medical field. Though it's use may still seem futuristic to some, many forward-thinking physicians, clinics and hospitals alike are beginning to see the key impacts that these technologies are making. Virtual reality is already being used to train surgeons, treat post-traumatic stress disorder (among other conditions) and educate patients about how various diseases affect their bodies.
Just as important, augmented reality is being used by nurses to see patients' veins through their skin and monitor other important vitals without the use of the traditionally clunky hardware we're used to. The technology is also becoming very popular with doctors and other healthcare workers in war zones where the size of the devices can literally mean the difference between life and death. Inevitably, as hardware continues to improve, prices drop and software advances, incredible opportunities will be identified in the medical community.
At Children's Hospital Los Angeles, residents are using VR to better understand how to resuscitate patients in immersive 3-D simulations based on real-world emergency situations. This, in turn, cuts down on the annual $430,000 cost of the previously used mannequins but more importantly performance improvements among the residents. At Cedar's Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles, psychiatrists have used VR to treat the growing number of patients suffering from opioid addictions. Physicians at the University of Maryland are experimenting with AR to view ultrasounds while diagnosing patients, while a company called Accuvein has created a device that scans veins and projects an AR visualization onto the patient's skin.
At an extremely basic level, the technology has been used very effectively as a distraction from pain, reducing the need for heavy pain medication. Military burn victims dealing with the excruciating process of wound debridement were split into two groups, those equipped with and without headsets. Those who received the VR experience, unsurprisingly reported less pain than those who hadn't.
Naturally hard data is necessary for such a delicate situation and it's safe to say the numbers speak for themselves. Accuvein has reported 45 percent fewer escalations due to their tech, whereas the University of Saskatchewan claimed that their medical students improved their learning accuracy by about 20 percent with the use of VR.
The future of extended reality can go in many exciting ways. While hardware is getting smaller, faster and more powerful, engineers and software developers are developing simulations which will be able to measure patients' physical limitations, therefore, applying the appropriate resistance necessary in rehabilitation. Remote diagnostics and procedures are also quickly becoming a reality allowing professionals to reach patients otherwise not attainable due to natural disasters and or manmade obstructions. As the tools get more advanced the possibilities will only be limited by the imagination.
Extended reality devices have immense disruptive potential, with the capacity to change how the healthcare industry delivers patient care and provider training. Both AR and VR is helping to take medicine outside the clinical spaces and will present a wide range of opportunities for innovators as the industry continues to adapt. We here at Cemtrex (VR and Labs) share this vision of the future and all the potential the technology possesses for the medical field and beyond by continually striving to live on the cutting edge. From interactive gaming experiences to virtual workspaces, the possibilities are endless, and our team will continue to leverage all the tools in our arsenal.

Hosts: An Ever-Rotating Lineup of OOU.Net's Unusual Suspects
That's right, your favorite geek conglomerate website is now doing audio movie reviews! The cast of reviewers is subject to change even movie to movie, we have a whole rogues gallery of cinema outlaws, but one thing you can always count on is that these funny and insightful film reviews will always be, in some way, Highly Suspect.
Altered Carbon: Season 1
In Netflix's new Neo-Noir science fiction series, Joel Kinnaman is actually a Japanese dude named Takeshi. He's been 'sleeved' in the body of Joel because everybody has these alien tech things in the back of their necks that stores their entire identities and memories and they can shuffle bodies. But he was brought back for a purpose: to solve the murder of a rich guy who can't remember why he died or whodunnit (dude is already re-sleeved, of course). Bringing together aspects of Blade Runner, anime, and a host of other borrowed elements as you'll hear in our review, Altered Carbon may just blow you away, or maybe you'll just *shrug*. Listen to Chris, Beau, Sarah, and Zach take it on.
Fifty Shades Freed
Here it is, the triumphant conclusion to the gigantic Fifty Shades franchise, where we all wait with bated breath to see if… Oh man, I can't do it. I try so hard to be fair, to go in with neutral expectations, to not pre-sell the review in these text blurbs… No, we're not exactly fans of this series. Yes, I made Patience, Marco, and George come see this third (and final, we hope) chapter in the series with me. Literally "made" them come. Blackmailed them. But here we are so let's get this one done. *sigh*
The Cloverfield Paradox
It was one of the weirdest media events ever, pronouncing a few hours before airtime that the much-anticipated (and oft-delayed) Cloverfield universe film, once titled The God Particle, but recently redesignated with the familiar moniker, would become viewable to all Netflix subscribers right at the end of this year's Superbowl. However, I suspect it paid off in spades. Whether or not the quality of the film did for it's many viewers is another matter entirely and one in which we came to different conclusions with our group in this FULL-ON SPOILER REVIEW (you have been warned) for the film. Join Chris, Matt Frank, Ian, George, Patience, and Dragonball Mike for their spirited discussion.
Me yesterday: OMG, why won't they screen Winchester for press? It's got Helen Mirren starring in it! It's about the freakin' Winchester Mystery House and I've been wanting to see a movie made about that for, like, frickin' ever! It's made by the Spierig brothers who (with the exception of Jigsaw) have reliably made great genre films! WHY WHY WHY? Me today: Oh…Check out our review of the movie we had to pay to find out why the powers that be didn't want us to be talking about. Featuring a section of the Deliberations of Doom crew: Chris, Patience, and Rob Summers!
Based on the true love story between once-famed Hollywood actress Gloria Grahame in her twilight years and a young actor, Annette Bening and Jamie Bell both give powerful and charismatic performances in this romantic tragedy that is clearly not going to be for everyone. You can find out who those people are on the Oneofus.net crew when you listen to Chris, Frank, and Michael give their review.
Christian Bale is a VERY tired soldier. In 1892, he is right about to be done with the whole thing when his captain gives him one last order to fulfill: take this dying Cheyenne war chief they have in custody, and his family, on a LONG trip back to their tribal lands in Montana so he can die there. Having fought the Native Americans for years in a bloody and protracted war, Bale isn't happy about it and the trip with him and several other folks (including Timothee Chalamet, Rory Cochrane, Jesse Plemons, and eventually Ben Foster) starts off on kind of a tense note, to say the least. Even worse when they come across a shell-shocked widow (Rosamund Pike) whose whole family had just been slaughtered in front of her by the Commanche. But somehow, along the way, these characters change, and to very interesting effect. Frank and Chris, who review this for your pleasure, were quite surprised that there wasn't considerably more hullabaloo in awards season for this quiet but extremely intense western. Check out their review here.
Somehow, out of all the NOT Harry Potter or Hunger Games YA adapted series, it was the Maze Runner books that actually made it to the end of their three movie run. I would have put my bets on Beautiful Creatures, but here we are. In this final chapter, our runners attempt to rescue their own from the ridiculously acronymed WCKD corp. In doing so they encounter again the traitor in their group, discover that one they thought was dead is no longer, and generally blow the fuck up out of an entire city. So what's not to like (or at least, grudgingly admit was amusing)? Well, Chris had seen all three of these and thought they were 'ok'. But he dragged Michael and Zach in without any experience with the series, so for those of you who never saw the first two and were planning on seeing the third (um, are there any?) we've got you covered.
John Hawkes is a washed-up, alcoholic, total mess of an ex-cop whose sister (Octavia Spencer) and her husband (Anthony Anderson) are the last two people in their small town who'll still put up with him being around…aside from bartenders when he actually manages to have cash on hand. But when he stumbles into a murder case, the old detective light switches back on and he finds a reason to not dive into a bottle as he chases down killers and killers chase him. Listen to Beau, Chris, and Frank just downright RAVE about this little crime film that could.
Chris Hemsworth leads a group of 12 soldiers as the first post-9/11 attack on the Taliban in Afganistan in this true(ish) story that surprised us more than a bit. I mean, sure, you got Michael Peña, Michael Shannon, William Fichtner, Saïd Taghmaoui, and strangely (that we wished we had seen more of him) Rob Riggle. And no question, this is a frag-waver (IE: big patriotism+lots of killing), not normally our type of thing and yet…well, let Chris and Michael give you the goods. Either way, we hope there's another Captain Amerithor movie soon.
Den of Thieves
A top-tier group of criminals. A no-rules broken cop and his loyal crew. The heist to end all heists. Sounds kinda like…Heat, right? But no Pacino or DeNiro here. You gotcher Gerard Butler as the dirty cop. You got (as far as the marketing campaign is concerned) 50 Cent as your big criminal, although in reality, the leader of that group is Pablo Schreiber…small mercies. In the mix is O'Shea Jackson Jr as well which is one of the things, erm, we said we really liked, sort of, about this movie. *sigh* Listen to Chris, Mike, Frank, and JC put together this j
Phantom Thread
Daniel Day-Lewis plays Reynolds Woodcock (titter), a famed dressmaking fashion king who puts silk on the backs of celebrities and royalty. When he meets a young girl named Alma (Vicky Krieps) he is taken with her, but is it more as a lover or as someone with the right frame to hang his dresses on? And how long will she, or anyone, put up with his eccentricities? Oh, the unmitigated tension. Paul Thomas Anderson directs Lewis here in what may be (if he's serious this time) the actor's last role. Chris, Lara, Jacob, and Ian review this movie in what may be (assuming they had as much fun as it seemed recording this) not even close to their last review for this website.
The Commuter
Liam Neeson tries one last go-round as an action star by teaming up again with director Jaume Collet-Serra (Non-Stop, Unknown) for this film that according to what Chris could get out of Ian, Lara, and JC, is basically two hours of Liam walking up and down a train going, "Is it him?". Basically, Vera Farmiga offers this ordinary joe a lot of money to find the person on the train that 'doesn't belong'. And that's about it. Oh, until the twist, of course. *sigh
Paddington 2
Dear America: Paddington is amazeballs. Get with the program. Signed, the British. And us. Because the first Paddington movie in 2014 was one of the best movies that year that NO ONE in America bothered to see. And now, I suspect it's going to be the same thing this year with the sequel. Which is a shame because both of these movies about the lovable bear cub who lives in London with his adoptive human family and ends up having accidental adventures…are tremendously good.
This time around Hugh Grant joins the cast as a scheming actor, Brendan Gleeson as a prison tough, a laundry list of famous British actors making cameos, and Paddington's friends and family (including everything-nominee Sally Hawkins) return from the first film. Yeah, we dug it. And it's also a prison escape movie. Chris hadn't sold Michael on the idea, but after he saw this sequel he was like, "Damn, I'm gonna go home and buy the first movie, like, now." Listen to them go on and on about how wonderful this is right here.
Black Mirror: Season 4
Join Chris, Patience, and Elliott as they go episode by episode with their review of the latest season of Charlie Brooker's, Black Mirror.
Insidious: The Last Key
Back for foursies, the Blumhouse spook show continues on with its left turn into Lin Shaye prequels with this story that covers her childhood and introduces new members of her family. But is it scary? Is it fun? Is it more of the same old, same old? Listen to Chris, Zach, Sarah, Michael, and Ian speak from the Fade with their reviews.
Because you demanded it… Ok, because those troublesome folks from our Deliberations of Doom podcast demanded it, we got that crew together to review that weird urban fantasy/End of Watch mash-up movie on Netflix, Bright. You know, the one where Will Smith and Joel Edgerton (under heavy Orc makeup) are mismatched cops searching for an elf on the run with a magic wand…. Yeah. That one. So now you can hear our epic-length review and know what the Doom Patrol thought of it.
All the Money in the World
Ridley Scott's new movie is based on the true story of the kidnapping of the grandson of the richest man in the world, J. Paul Getty. Problem was, the kidnappers didn't realize that Getty was such an unbelievable skinflint that not only would he pay no money to said grandson's family (they lived in poverty) but he wouldn't pay the ransom either. Minimally, he just sent a handler (Mark Wahlberg) to assist his desperate daughter-in-law (Michelle Williams) but sans any kind of a real budget. What happened as this story unplayed was kinda crazy. Almost as crazy as the last minute digital replacement they did for Getty, inserting Christopher Plummer. Which we never really noticed the seams of. Listen to Chris, George and Frank talk about that and the movie in general right here.
Molly's Game
Jessica Chastain plays real-life underground poker queen Molly Bloom, as she recounts her story of being targeted by the FBI to her lawyer, Idris Elba. I mean, just the two of them in a movie together should be enough to get butts in seats, right? Just put them in everything. Hell, they're going to be in IT 2 now, apparently. But wait, there's more…or less, depending on how you feel about screenplay God (yeah, I said it) Aaron Sorkin. He wrote this sucka and now makes his directorial debut. WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG. Well…. Hmm. Chris, Lara, Frank, and JC discuss the issue.
The Post
Adding to the pile of December Oscar-bait this year is Steven Spielberg's entry and he's going in with guns-a-blazing, casting Meryl Streep as Washington Post owner Kay Graham and Tom Hanks as its editor Ben Bradley in a time of deep concern for the paper: do they ignore the federal government's threats and publish shocking documents that were illicitly obtained revealing secrets about the Vietnam war? Timely, no? Which isn't to say we were head over heels with it. Listen to Chris, Elliott, Frank, and JC break it down for you.
Pitch Perfect III
In the third chapter in this (apparently) well-loved series, we thought it appropriate to actually try to get some people from the demographic the film is targeting to do the review for us. Turns out, our own regular Highly Suspect Reviewer, Lara, has a teen daughter named Rowan who was VERY excited to see the trilogy completed and Chris interviews the two of them about their experience. And NO…Chris did not use this as an excuse to get out of seeing Pitch Perfect III. There were multiple screenings on the same night. But, that being said, good note for future reference…
Father Figures
Owen Wilson and Ed Helms play very different brothers who have to team up when they find out that the father that their mother (Glenn Close) told them about is only one of a series of possible dads. Road trip and celebrity cameos ensue. Check out Chris moderating the review with Michael and Aaron.
The latest Alexander Payne film features Matt Damon as a man who decides to downsize his life in the most literal way possible, joining many others by going under a shrinking process that makes him about 5 inches tall. Also featuring Kristen Wiig, Christoph Waltz, and Jason Sudeikis, this was one of the more split-opinion films to be released this year and our group of reviewers (Chris, Frank, and JC) are no different. Check out their review.
The Conclave: The Last Jedi Spoiler Review
We've reconvened our knowledgeable Jedi conclave to help us discuss the latest Star Wars movie at length. This is a review for those who want to hear some adult talk (I mean, admittedly, adults who've read and seen every last bit of canon lore in the Star Wars universe, but, you know) digging deeply into the new film. Not everyone is on the same page here but it makes for a really smart talk about what works and what doesn't in The Last Jedi. Your host is Chris and your Conclave is Chris Herman, Marco, Adam, and Harris.
The Greatest Showman
Hugh Jackman puts back on his song and dance man hat to become legendary circus guy P.T. Barnum. This musical exploration of his story also features Zac Efron, Michelle Williams, Rebecca Ferguson, Zendaya and many more and I'm telling you right now: some of you are going to HATE it. Not us though. Listen to Chris, Frank, and Lara almost break out into song reviewing the film.
