Forums General Discussion Suspended due to disconnects?
I am currently suspended from ranked gameplay for 10 minutes because of disconnects. It has been happening on and off today, and I am normally allowed to rejoin but this time it banned me? I mean hell, I was just disconnected at the title screen as I typed this up, do I have to worry about being permabanned because of this?
if your internet isn't reliable, you shouldn't be playing comp.
......... have you tried fixing/trying something new to stop disconnecting?
How many times did you disconnect before making this thread?
At the third one, maybe even the second, I would've stopped trying to play and see what's up with my computer, router, and ISP in that order.
No, it just started today. Sometimes it lags for a few seconds but its mostly been fine with the exception of one or two matches where I disconnected repeatedly. I just thought it was psn since I was always immediately allowed to rejoin. I never actually left a match.
my internet is reliable, please add something constructive to the thread. I will report trolls or spam.
That was more of an obvious advice than trolling. You want something constructive about your issue? Do you want blizzard to change the system for d/c players. If they didn't do it last season then they probably won't do it this season. Best of luck and if the internet acting up then wait til your lag free by doing quick play.
It clearly isn't if you're having connection issues. On a very serious note, what are you doing to test other internet services (preferably streaming) to make sure it isn't just Overwatch? And again, have you checked your router? If many things aren't working contact your ISP.
...my internet is reliable, please add something constructive to the thread. I will report trolls or spam.
I just need to know how touchy this ban system is, I cannot predict when I will have a lag spike, as I cannot see the future. I have no idea what is causing it but if it starts working fine for the rest of the day and my connection gets dropped randomly by comcast or whatever the problem is, say sometime tomorrow, will I be banned for the season? In a way, the ban forced me to leave that match permanently, instead of being able to jump back in. Third match to do that to me in ten hours of gameplay.
You're not playing Overwatch via wardriving, are you?
We're really sorry you had a bad experience due to a disconnect. Personally, I hate when that happens myself so I can relate.
Unfortunately, we're in a really tricky spot with Competitive Play in regards to players leaving matches. If you read through these forums, we get a lot of complaints that players leaving matches is a huge point of frustration for our players.
There is no reliable way that we can discern if you disconnected because of a connection issue, or you forced a disconnect. Because of that, we need to treat anyone who leaves a match in the same way.
We're way more lenient in quick play. And it feels like we're generally in a good spot in Quick Play. However, in Competitive Play, if anything, we hear from our player base that we should be increasing the leaver penalties and making them more harsh.
For Season 2, we added a 10 minute delay to your first "leave" to make you aware that leaving is bad and there are in fact penalties for leaving. We also wanted to put in increasing penalties to help dissuade people who were having connection issues from repeatedly trying to reconnect to Competitive Play games. We know that sometimes the connection issues are not your fault. And that really is a shame. But also, when those moments are happening, it's not a good time to jump into a team game and subject your teammates to the mercy of an unstable internet connection.
My advice for people who are having connection issues is to play modes like the Brawl or Play vs. AI until their connection stabilizes. Again, I know this isn't the answer you want to hear, but hopefully you can understand the situation from the other side. It's very likely that someone who was on your team in that match posted in one of the many angry "leaver" threads on these forums.
Hopefully this sheds some light on our thought process.
Again, apologies you had a bad experience.
If the majority of your matches are played without "leaves", you'll be fine.
...I just need to know how touchy this ban system is, I cannot predict when I will have a lag spike, as I cannot see the future. I have no idea what is causing it but if it starts working fine for the rest of the day and my connection gets dropped randomly by comcast or whatever the problem is, say sometime tomorrow, will I be banned for the season? In a way, the ban forced me to leave that match permanently, instead of being able to jump back in. Third match to do that to me in ten hours of gameplay.
Then why are you posting on a Competitive thread?
Thanks a lot for the reply, Jeff. I'm really sorry that you have to deal with these people.
Granted, I haven't done CP yet, but I'll make sure to do so in the future!
I'll admit, I laughed. Also I'd rather see blue posts in those F, Marry, Kill threads instead of the constant "buff my favorite character" ones.
wow, thanks for the response. That was very generous of you to answer my question, I was just worried that I might be at risk of being banned for the season is all. I love overwatch very much and made it to rank 64 last season, it would break my heart if I could no longer play. My internet is acting strange today, so I guess I will play something different until it returns to normal.

Taste of Cinema - Movie Reviews and Classic Movie Lists > Lists > Film Lists > 10 Movie Remakes That Are Actually Better Than The Original
10 Movie Remakes That Are Actually Better Than The Original
Posted on January 18, 2017 January 18, 2017 by Thor Magnusson
The word 'remake' gets a general knee-jerk reaction of scorn and sighing from movie buffs worldwide. It's a fully valid reaction since it's easily the laziest form of filmmaking, essentially skipping the process of creating something new by simply rehashing something old.
Still, that's no reason that a remake cannot surpass its originator, and on a handful of rare occasions, exactly that has occurred. So without further ado, let's champion those rare examples.
10. True Lies (1994)
Original: The French comedy "La Totale!" (1991) was a homegrown hit with a clever premise – a boring middle-class family-man (Thierry Lhermitte) is secretly the world's most dangerous spy agent. This cute idea gave the film strong legs but its limited mainstream Gaelic appeal and ho-hum budget hampered its stronger ambitions.
Remake: You couldn't have a more surefire combination for box office annihilation in the early 90s than Arnold Schwarzenegger and James Cameron, so to say that the budget for the duo's remake was colossal is an understatement, with it going bigger and bigger in every facet.
The film cleaned up at the box office as another smash hit notch on their belts, but critics were also surprised by the clever plotting and 'marital woes' comedy as well.
Why Superior? All the strengths of "La Totale!" (smart premise, comedy of relationship errors, turning James Bond on its head) got carried over to the Cameron movie and worked excellently (especially Bill Paxton's low-rent Lothario), yet all of its weaknesses (low budget, lame action, limited appeal) were highly improved upon.
Arnie and his leading lady Jamie Lee Curtis showed great chemistry and made the romantic and comedic elements mesh well with the big budget bombast. It's not high art, but it's definitely the megastar director's most unabashedly fun movie.
9. Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978)
Original: Don Siegel's 1956 original is one of the smartest genre shockers made, set in small-town middle America and featuring an intense, sweaty lead performance by Kevin McCarthy. It cleverly examined the communism scare that was sweeping America at the time, relishing in the paranoia that your neighbor could be your enemy whilst equally scathing to those who instigate the mania, and it's one of the strongest B-movies from that period and for good reason.
Remake: The original has been remade several times over – its concept of pod people finding their footing with different metaphors in alternative eras, yet none were as successful as Philip Kaufman's late 70's effort – and was the first and best retread. Superposing events to the big city and focusing on the material thirst and the mass brainwashing happening during that period, it handsomely stood next to the original as a clever example of the genre.
Why Superior? There's no arguing that Siegel's original is a rough-edged classic, but Kaufman and writer W.D. Richter's retread is superior in achieving what most remakes can only dream of – lovingly paying tribute to the original while expanding and elaborating on its themes and scenarios to superior levels. Kaufman's gritty style adds a new flavor to proceedings, and the switch from small town claustrophobia to the big city surprisingly makes the scenario more relentless and isolating.
Add to that an compellingly offbeat lead in Donald Sutherland and a rare villainous turn from Leonard Nimoy, and you have the best version of Jack Finney's novel to date.
8. True Grit (2010)
Original: The 1969 adaptation of the Charles Portis novel is a well-regarded semi-classic seen as the last hurrah for cinema hero John Wayne. Wayne took on the mantel of eye-patched bounty hunter Rooster Cogburn, a rare occasion where the actor fully disappeared into his character, and the gruff yet lovable result stands as one of his most iconic roles, resulting in him walking away with an Oscar and a Golden Globe for his trouble.
Remake: Jeff Bridges filled the large shoes of Cogburn under the commands of his "Big Lebowski" compatriots – the Coen Brothers, who were in the director's chair. The Coens' otherwise 'midas touch' had faltered with an earlier remake (2004's "The Ladykillers"), so their retreat into older material was a mild concern. However, it resulted in a solid crowd-pleaser and their most straightforward commercial piece that proudly stood on its own two feet.
Why Superior? There's no doubt that the Wayne original has plenty of lovable attributes – old pro Henry Hathaway's directing, Wayne's scene stealer, and the rip-roaring adventurous tone – yet the Coens' approach greatly elevates the material past being an old-fashioned genre piece and into a great movie.
The Coens stay their usual eccentricities and play it close to the book, and amazingly, Pottis' colorful characters and snappy dialogue fit the duo's style like hand-in-glove. Also, their approach to the 'old west' is dirty and naturalistic with a prevalent bleak and haunting tone regardless of the immense fun that is had. Both films are cut from the same cloth, but the Coens' trademark touch with the material has it resulting in the better movie.
7. Ocean's Eleven (2001)
Original: The original caper was the ultimate 'Rat Pack' movie with the whole gang (Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., etc) all together for the first time on screen for a breezy heist comedy. Directed by prestige filmmaker Lewis Milestone, it's enjoyable to see the group hang out and riff off each other, but for the most it didn't add up to much, making it a film that was probably a blast to make but not as fun to watch.
Remake: Indie darling Steven Soderbergh had a string of respected and acclaimed movies, but none of them broke the bank, despite sweeping the awards. Then he realized he could riff on Sinatra's formula and gather all his A-list friends (George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts, etc) and put them together in one enjoyable romp. It was an all-star feast at the box office that launched a successful franchise that helped balance the financial books of Soderbergh and Clooney, as they risked more adventurous projects on the side.
Why Superior? Clooney and co's take on the material was an ultra-cool blast to watch – sure, it seemed like it was all a good excuse for the cast to hang out and get paid, but unlike the original (and the sequels), they also gave a damn about creating a slick, involved heist movie with a handful of colorful and arresting characters.
This was also Soderbergh's most polished style exercise, perfectly complemented by regular collaborator David Holmes' smooth score and the lush photography of Las Vegas. It all sums up to a flawlessly tasty watch that elevated the original material high above its predecessor.
6. Ben-Hur (1959)
Original: In the early 20s, "Ben-Hur: A Tale of Jesus Christ" had already been a successful novel and stage play – the young medium of film seemed like the natural next step.
MGM pulled no stops in its lavish production that quickly became the most expensive film of the silent era. The results show, though, that with beautiful production value and location work, it was unanimously praised at cinemas with its chariot-race finale, helping revolutionize film editing.
Remake: After the enormous success Charlton Heston had from remaking "The Ten Commandments" (1956) – another religious/historical former silent picture – the untouchable star decided to turn his attention over to "Ben-Hur". Veteran director William Wyler (who worked as an assistant director on the silent version), known for his solid dramatic work, stepped in to the director's chair and the result was a colossal success, and pretty much resulted in what many consider the cream-of-the-crop of 50's historical epics.
Why Superior? The silent original, whilst well-regarded in its heyday, is surpassed with the high budget, bombastic production value Heston's film gave.
Regardless of its daunting length and Sunday school overtones, it's a breathtaking example of the kind of high-quality blockbuster cinema they don't make like they used to, with a stellar chariot-race finale that surpassed its original and still holds up as intense cinema to this day. It's a testament that the recent 2016 retread, with all its modern bells and whistles, could not even mildly outshine this late 50's classic.

10 Great Movies That Will Crawl Under Your Skin
The 10 Worst Horror Movies of 2016

NASHVILLE, TN — Jonquil Child by singer-songwriter Tiffany Huggins Grant marks the arrival of a bright new talent on the Americana music scene. The 12-song album boasts 10 original numbers that bring her honey-and-crystal voice and her songwriting to the fore, reveling in her gift for melody and in her creative vision.
Grant's songs perfectly balance the sweet and the bitter. Her arrangements reflect the signatures of great American roots music in their tremolo guitars, pedal steel, soul-fueled keyboards and perfectly measured rhythms, while also incorporating apt-but-unanticipated strokes of classic rock and psychedelia in soulful and spirited tunes like "If You Only Knew" and "Fighter." And Grant's writing draws unsparingly on her experiences combatting alcoholism and depression — even while celebrating the triumph over both that Jonquil Child represents.
Jonquil Child inspires similar faith in listeners. The poignant country heart-searcher "When It Rains" pulls emotional strings as Grant gracefully sings about the self-pity, guilt and loss that are part of alcohol addiction over John Heinrich's weeping steel guitar. And Pamela Jackson's "One Too Many," one of just two tunes on Jonquil Child written by others, provides another round of whiskey-stained regret blended with classic honky tonk. The twine of Heinrich's chiming steel and Robinson's evocative six-string on "Out My Window" perfectly frame Grant's portrait of the isolation of depression. Nonetheless, the dark-themed number ascends into light on a vibrant chorus as lovely as the blossoms that helped inspire the album's title composition.
Overall, there's real sunshine in these tracks, and in Grant's arc of recovery and self-discovery. The song "Jonquil Child" uses Grant's buoyant melodies and Robinson's ringing, joyful electric guitar to spin the tale of her departure from childhood in Smyrna, Georgia — dubbed the "Jonquil City" for its abundance of the yellow blossoms — and her arrival in the very adult world of the Nashville singer-songwriter community. The achingly romantic "Love Letters," where Grant's voice and Heinrich's steel essay the depths of human devotion, was inspired by the discovery of a ream of saved missives among her grandparents' effects. And "Ain't Nobody Leaves" stirs the passion of the great recordings that emerged from the Stax and Muscle Shoals studios, celebrating the ballad style of one of Grant's important influences, soul giant Otis Redding.
Growing up outside Atlanta, Grant was exposed to the classic rock, soul, R&B and country her parents listened to, and early on she became fascinated by the sound of guitar. She was 12 when she got her first instrument, and began picking out chords and figuring how they came together to create songs. After her parents divorced, her mother remarried to a physically and mentally abusive man.
"It was a volatile situation," Grant recounts. "That's when I started writing songs. It was a way to take myself to another place. I'd lock myself in the basement, and write and sing all night. At one point my mom came down the stairs and said, 'Hey, those sound like good songs.' She encouraged me, so I started entering songwriting competitions.
At 16, Grant became a finalist in the Georgia Music Industry Association's songwriting competition, which put her before an audience for the first time. By the time she turned 17 she'd attended the prestigious NashCamp songwriting program and made the first of her many appearances at Nashville's songwriters' Mecca, the Bluebird Café.
It was inevitable that Grant would move to Nashville, but it took her a few years in Music City to gain her momentum. Today her stage resume includes opening shows for such respected artists as Tommy Womack and Americana hit-makers Shovels & Rope.
For every aspirant that comes to this Guitar Town believing they have what it takes to write memorable songs and maybe even become a Big Singing Star, there comes a moment, at some late night guitar pull, or a Tuesday night open-mic at a pizza joint, in somebody's basement studio, or onstage in a 500-head capacity hall, when the artist has to just step up and Prove It. Do it successfully, and you get a chance to prove it again tomorrow night. Fail, and you might want to think about loading the old wagon and heading back for home sweet home. I've seen Tiffany Huggins Grant plying her musical trade in all kinds of settings these last couple of years—and brother, she delivers the proof. Every time.
All one needs to do is listen to this incredible vocal instrument that Tiffany has developed through her young life—a life with some spice that you can hear in every tone, every riff, every glorious coloratura arc—sweet Soul groovin' low and sad Country songs sung so sweet—her versatility can't be boxed in by one style. Her songwriting is an equitable and eclectic weapon as well. She wrote 10 of these 12 tracks, and friend, this Jonquil Child record ain't no kid-stuff; no tailgates-and-tank-tops kind of fare here. Her songs are her art and life. They are much like her: fearless, intelligent, world-wise—complex yet possessing the Common Touch. Tiffany Huggins Grant is the rare Real Deal. Just listen.
Songwriting performers move to Nashville every day. The best proceed to pour their heart and soul into writing and singing, listening and learning … and finally, if they're determined enough and fortunate enough, creating and recording music that conveys that heart and soul. Tiffany Huggins Grant has accomplished that elusive task on Jonquil Child. The first thing that grabs you of course is her voice. But it won't be long before the words and melodies she's chosen rise to meet her powerful instrument and complement it in those rich and satisfying ways that only a singer/songwriter can. Whether Grant's music requires Muscle Shoals soul for "Ain't Nobody Leaves" or the quiet of a Nashville country ballad on "Love Letters," Mark Robinson's gracious production is there to meet it without ever overpowering the singer or the song. Including two songs by masterful songwriters like Pamela Jackson and Walt Wilkins raises the bar for the songwriting on the entire album—but they also exhibit Grant's level of empathetic song interpretation while revealing the maturity of her own songwriting. A brave choice. While it is only her first national release, Jonquil Child will help establish Tiffany Huggins Grant as a Nashville voice, a compelling singing voice, and substantial songwriting voice.
Tiffany Huggins Grant has one of the most amazing voices I've ever heard. Her quality and range are really impressive, as is her control—but it's her expression and emotion that had me hooked the first time I heard her sing. You just know when someone really has "it"—that connection of an artist to their material that is rare and treasured, especially here in Nashville. I've seen a room full of jaded Music Row writers stop everything and go dead silent when they hear her sing. Tiffany has a powerful gift, and I couldn't wait to work with her in the studio.
Then I heard the songs she was writing for her next project, and I knew we could make not just a good album, but a great album. Tiffany's songs are real and true, from her life and her soul. I'm proud to be a part of Jonquil Child. It's just the start of what Tiffany Huggins Grant will be able to do as a singer and as an artist—she's headed for the bright lights now.

Rick Walker To Direct Film "Second Chances" With Allyson Cristofaro In Lead Role
Rick Walker is set to direct "Second Chances" from his own script for State 46 Films with Allyson Cristofaro in the leading role. Justan Floyd signs on as DP with Kassie Gann to produce.
Oklahoma City, United States - December 27, 2020 /PressCable/ —
Award-winning director and writer Rick Walker has been tapped to direct and produce "Second Chances" for State 46 Films as the production company's first feature film in their partnership with Imagine Agency out of Scottsdale, AZ and Mortimer Creative out of Oklahoma City.
The film, "Second Chances" began the first phase of principal photography in December of 2020 in an area of Oklahoma City known as 'The Plaza District' with plans to complete production in February of 2021.
The screenplay, penned by Walker, tells of Jimi White, a 20 year-old employee at the "Second Chances Thrift Store" who secretly tries to reunite a couple after finding a torn up love note in an old handbag leading her on a journey of self-discovery about her own love life.
The lead role went to actress Allyson Cristofaro after an extensive search and audition process.
"Working on 'Second Chances' has been a wicked fun time! It's so exciting to have the opportunity to play a character as spirited and down-to-earth as Jimi. Her search for purpose in a crazy world feels especially relevant today, and I can't wait for audiences to get to know her." said Cristofaro.
Rick Walker said of Cristofaro,"We could feel she was the perfect choice to play 'Jimi' when she walked into our first meeting. She has very similar sensibilities and even looks like I had envisioned the character. She really dug in and studied this character and with Allyson's acting chops that's a potent combination. Her subtle and nuanced portrayal of 'Jimi' will allow viewers to really relate to her aspirations and feel her heart."
In addition to Walker, Kassie Gann is producing the film along with Justan Floyd and Charles "Bud" Elder.
A sneak preview was released during the first phase of principal photography and can be seen at https://secondchancesmovie.com
State 46 Films, Imagine Agency and Mortimer Creative provide a wealth of combined experience in filmmaking, digital marketing and project management.
Walker is very enthusiastic about the venture between the three stating, "We plan to produce a library of feature films for streaming services, cable, on-demand and blu-ray / DVD with our incredibly diverse and collaborative team. Utilizing the strengths of the three entities allows for a much stronger production and aggressive marketing strategy across all channels for a bigger release."
State 46 Films, as one might surmise by its name, was formed to produce Oklahoma-based stories that can only be told with the 46th state's unique locations, people and vibe.
"Oklahoma has exceptionally talented film crews that have experience on everything from major studio blockbuster movies to smaller independent films", says Walker
Oklahoma offers one of the highest base rebate percentages in the nation at 35%.
Although this is the first movie for State 46 Films, Walker has previously written 17 screenplays, produced and directed several documentaries, feature films and reality TV programming in addition to hundreds of national and local TV commercials.
He recently won the Platinum Award for Best Director from the Association of Marketing and Communication Professionals (AMCP)
Veteran filmmaker and cinematographer Justan Floyd is behind the camera as the director of photography on "Second Chances" and Amy Watkins has curated a very specific and beautiful world for 'Jimi' to live in as the film's production designer.
The film will feature music from artists such as Briel, Stephen Salewon and Zac Maloy along with the alternative rock band 'The Nixon's' among others.
The film "Second Chances" is planning a release in late Summer or early Fall of 2021.

Kristen's interview with People magazine on the Chanel Paris-Dallas campaign
Ever since we heard that Kristen Stewart was a new face of Chanel, we've been dying to see how the line's creative director and head designer Karl Lagerfeld would style her for his ads. After all, the starlet has a very different look than the ethereal blondes Lagerfeld has tapped for previous campaigns (like Keira Knightley, Blake Lively and Diane Kruger). And as you can see in the first-look video from the ad shoot below, her edgy beauty was played up in cornrows, winged liner and some seriously beautiful clothes.
Stewart had a long working relationship with Chanel — she's been to its fashion shows and worn Chanel to the Met Gala — before Lagerfeld asked her to model this collection (which he shot himself in Paris). And, she tells PEOPLE, he's not at all as intimidating as someone of his stature in the fashion world might seem.
"Really, his image is in contrast to what it's really like to be around him. There's something almost unapproachable and f—ing chic … And then you meet him and he's actually an incredibly creative and voracious liver," she says. "His personal library in Paris that we shot the campaign in, you look around and the staff is like, 'Now can you believe, he's actually read all of these books?' and you're like, 'I kind of actually can.' He's an impressive guy. He definitely is so much more than the glasses and the hair than you might think he is."
Chanel's Métiers d'Art collections are produced once a year to show off the craftsmanship of its ateliers. This year's "romantic Western"-inspired lineup debuted in Dallas, and can be seen on Stewart throughout the video. "It was about finding which pieces from the collection worked on me," she tells PEOPLE of staging the shoot. "He's so good at seeing something that's not cool and making it cool. Like, I would have my leg in one position and he would throw a toothpick in my mouth and tell me to stop leaning on my leg and in two seconds it was like, 'Oh, there it is.' It was very cool and easy and artistic. I didn't feel like I had to push outside of myself. I didn't have to try to turn into someone else."
Kristen Stewart can't understand why people make such a big deal when she swaps stilettos for sneakers after walking the red carpet.
"For some reason it pisses people off when I change after a red carpet. If I think about why people have these expectations of me it makes sense, but I genuinely think that if people thought about it for two seconds they'd be like, 'Oh my God, why do I care that that girl just put some f—ing sneakers on?'" the actress tells PEOPLE. "Are you seriously mad that I put on some Vans after an hour of being in heels? I'm so sorry to have upset you, you crazy person."
Though Stewart hasn't made many appearances since navigating the red carpet at the 2013 Oscars – wearing a single platform heel and a pair of crutches – Shailene Woodley seems to be following in her footsteps. Are the actress' shoe choices a shared act of sartorial rebellion?
"It's for logistical reasons — it's not comfortable to stay that way for long. It's funny, because it's not a rebellious thing. I think Shailene's awesome and I guarantee she'd say the same thing; It's like I'm not trying to piss anyone off. I'm sorry, it's just that my feet hurt!" Stewart explains. "I think it's so ridiculous when that shatters the initial reaction to whatever outfit was put together I didn't ruin it! I still put the dress on and … I rocked it. But then I wanted to run around and talk to people."
Though she doesn't have much in common with the string of Hollywood blondes (including Keira Knightley, Blake Lively and Diane Kruger) who have posed for Chanel ads in the past, Stewart says her new campaign for the label's Paris-Dallas collection makes perfect sense.
"Not many people would assume I would be the perfect fit for Karl and Chanel…but the cool thing about this line was it was the perfect fit," she says of the ads, which were shot in Paris by Chanel's Karl Lagerfeld last February. "I didn't feel I had to push outside myself. I didn't have to try to turn into someone else."
This year for my birthday they sent me a signed Patti Smith album. They didn't even send me anything from Chanel…some [bag or] pair of shoes that they wanted me to go get photographed in," she remembers. "They're just cool people. "You're like, 'Wait a minute, you guys are the supposed to be the ones that are the snootiest people imaginable but you're not!'"

- What do you think of Karl Lagerfeld?
Kristen Stewart: 'He was born to fulfill the role he does, not just in the world of fashion but also in the arts. You know the reason people are intimidated by him is not because he projects that but because of what he has accomplished and everything that he represents. And then when you meet him, he's the opposite of intimidating, he is everything that my experiences taught me about true artists which is that they do what they do because they love it and they need to do it and they have fun doing it. Therefore, when I get to collaborate with those people it's nothing but everything that I want, all I want to do is to create things with people that are good at what they do and you sort of don't get better than him. And just to put it sort of dumbly, even just in the way that we were shooting, if you have to try too hard to do something it's probably because it's not right. Everything today [on the set] was like breathing, it was so easy and he knew as soon as he saw what he wanted, it was like 'done! 'It was effortless and he's awesome and he's so sweet.'
- How does the fashion world, and the experience of a fashion show, compare to the movie world and events such as the Oscars?
Kristen Stewart: 'I love sitting down to a show and experiencing it with all of my senses, it's about the music, the feeling in the room. Everything about a show is supposed to evoke a feeling and not all of them do, sometimes it's just about the clothes and when you see a show that tells a story and has a setting and it has a context, it's like watching a film. And so to be around that energy, that's what I look for in my job and so I have nothing to do with fashion necessarily, I don't make the clothes, I have nothing to do with it but just to be around that, is why I do what I do. I want to feel that creative energy and when you find yourself on a movie set and its right, it's like to stumble upon a miracle and you can't really take credit for it, you can't control it, it just happens. And when you go to a good show, it's like you are watching history, it's like you are watching something that is like lighting a bottle, you know they hit something. I've been to two of the shows and each time it was a full experience, it wasn't about the clothes or picking out what dresses you liked, it's about watching it as a whole, watching the story unfold.'
- What was the atmosphere like at the Paris-Dallas show? What inspires you most about this collection?
Kristen Stewart: 'We were all transplants, none of us were from there so I think we all got there and felt fully transported into not just another place but another time. Without being remotely derivative it's very referential of something that I come from. Chanel is this quintessentially French brand and they are really pulling from art, history and making a cowboy hat which you would never think would ever work for Chanel but they knocked it out! You know not just chic and elegant and beautiful which it all is but it's also just so cool.'
- What is your favorite piece?
Kristen Stewart: 'My favorite dress is the long black tulle one with embroidered stars, and the shoes that I'm wearing in the ad campaign.' (Kristen Stewart is wearing patent calfskin lace-ups)
- Why did you decide to collaborate with Chanel?
Kristen Stewart: 'I've had a budding relationship with Chanel and Karl since I was quite young. The first time I wore Chanel was in 2007 at the "Into the Wild" premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival , then at my first MET ball experience, The Baftas, the Vanity fair shoot were I posed with Karl for Mario Testino. It always felt like a privilege to wear Chanel and to be around Karl who is an artist that, for me, constantly inspires. He manages to never stop moving forward while remaining completely quintessential. Being accepted into the family that is Chanel is very full circle for me.'
- What has been the most eye opening or fun experience shooting this campaign?
Kristen Stewart: 'The idea of Karl, what he has accomplished, the role he has created for himself in the arts and in society. The only intimidating thing about him really is that scary unapproachable facade which is something people project onto him I think. Because when you meet him or you have the opportunity to watch him work or in my case "work with him" he is so awesome. And you can really reap the benefits of being around someone who knows so much and is so creative and driven and excited. It shocked me what a well-rounded and talented photographer he is. How truly into it he actually was. Basically and obviously, he is so much more than a fashion designer; he is a true renaissance man, one of the greatest artists of our time.'

'Equals' will be filmed in Tokyo
Doremus is next set to direct "Equals," a futuristic romance he aims to shoot this year. With Kristen Stewart and Nicholas Hoult starring, it certainly has a bigger feel. (Essentially it's about an uber-rationalist society that's been stripped of all romantic feeling, seemingly to its betterment, and what happens when a man starts developing emotions again.)
Of course, as he's Drake Doremus, he's hardly doing it the conventional way either. The movie will be shot in Tokyo (Doremus wanted the futurism the city can offer) and financed not by a studio but with Indian Paintbrush, an independent company that bankrolled Wes Anderson's "Moonrise Kingdom" as well as "Like Crazy."
"It feels more commercial to me," he said of the new project. "Maybe some people would need to do something even more commercial. But it needs to feel like me." He paused, "Like I said, life's too short."

Stylist Tara Swennen mentions Kristen
Speaking of the red carpet, you've styled celebrities like Kristen Stewart and Kaley Cuoco. Each of their looks definitely stands on its own, but which is your big, 'Wow, I can't believe I made that happen' moment?"
"I don't know if there's one in particular that stands out. I have to say I've been really lucky and have had some great moments with my girls on the carpet. One of the greatest honors I've had in my career was last year when Kristen was named one of the top 10 most fashionable celebs in Vogue. That grouping of her looks from 2013 — that was a really great honor. Getting a nod from Anna Wintour is always an amazing thing. That in and of itself was probably one of my prouder moments. But, I don't know if I can pick one look."

Sharon Stone Joins the cast of "American Ultra"
Oscar winner Sharon Stone is set to join Jesse Eisenberg and Kristen Stewart in Lionsgate's action-comedy "American Ultra," TheWrap has learned.
Stone takes over the role that Uma Thurman had been rumored for in the film, which Nima Nourizadeh ("Project X") is directing from a script by Max Landis ("Chronicle").
Sharon Stone has been cast as Victoria Lasseter who, according to THR when Uma Thurman was in negotiations, "will play a government worker who spearheaded a secret program to create sleeper warriors, and now that someone wants to kill her creation, she will fight back like a momma bear protecting her cub."

TheStreet.com loss narrows
David B. Wilkerson
SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Online financial-news provider TheStreet.com said Thursday that its first-quarter loss narrowed from the prior year, as advertising revenue increased 48%.
The company TSCM said it recorded a first-quarter net loss of $854,000, or 3 cents a share, compared with a loss of $1.6 million or 6 cents a share in the year-ago period. Revenue rose 13% to $8.94 million from $7.9 million.
A survey of two analysts by Thomson First Call forecasted a loss of 2 cents a share and revenue of $9.65 million.
TheStreet.com shares fell 21 cents to close at $3.52, a loss of 5.6%.
The revenue increase reflected gains in advertising in the company's core publishing business, as well as commission revenue from its IRG securities research and brokerage segment.
Advertising revenue rose 48% to $2.1 million, and was up 3% from the fourth quarter of 2004.
Commission revenue rose 46% to $1.1 million, though the total was down 25 percent from the fourth quarter -- which is traditionally the strongest quarter of the year for the industry.
"We continue to believe that we will see strong advertising and commission revenue opportunities for the remainder of the year," said Thomas Clarke, chairman and chief executive, in a statement. "We will continue to balance this demand with our subscription offerings to find the right mix of free versus paid content to maximize revenue."

As soon as Edinburgh was introduced as the host city for this season's decider, Irish fans would have been better off taking a punt and simply booking flights in the hope that their group could be concerned. Matthieu Lamoure, the MD of Artcurial's automotive auction department is pictured in the course of the 2012 auction of the non-public collection of vehicles belonging to the Prince of Monaco. First designed in Germany throughout the Thirties, the Beetle survived World War II and was one of the most mass produced and cherished cars on the planet. Volkswagen, positioned in Wolfsburg, is another large automotive producer and employer in Germany, producing automobiles all around the globe. Our world is technologically active and evolutions spanned by innovations are inevitable. Baillon's dream was to finally open a museum of pre-conflict cars but his monetary circumstances and eventual ailing well being prevented the restoration of the collection. For a rustic of just nine million to provide one automaker can be amazing enough. The Amazing World of Automobiles" presents an in-depth take a look at the invention, innovation and inspiration behind the car.
The mixture of a good product, productive assembly methods, and consumer need produced wonderful financial results. The Greeks gave us gears, the Romans gave us roads—but when it got here to engines, the world was nonetheless stuck with horsepower. Having more automobiles than one demands is methods to shell out a number of have to be spending money on insurance coverage policy. It has continued on delivering reliable and fashionable cars to the completely different markets in the automobile industry. Celebrated for efficiency, performance, security and reliability, and its incredible range of kit's, the three new SUVs are ready to take on the world. But throughout World War II, he turned his manufacturing facility over to creating thousands of bombers.
As you can see, most of these manufacturers are luxurious automobile makes, and have tremendously increased the usual of automobiles worldwide. Since the top of World War II, when the United States dropped the A-bomb on Japan, and the advent of the Cold War, the specter of nuclear destruction has never seemed far away. I assume i should let u knw that there's additionally a person who now produces automobiles here in Nigeria (INNOSON MOTORS) and the federal government of Nigeria has made it govt official automobile and has been handed into legislation.
And things stayed that method for hundreds of years by a time known as the Dark Ages, the early a part of the Middle Ages, when science and knowledge advanced little in the western world. Yet the more industrialized issues grew to become, the more Ford yearned for the agricultural world he was helping to destroy. The firm was at first a manufacturer of bicycles, but after seeing the creation of the primary automobile, the corporate shifted its curiosity to automobiles and manufactured their first automobile in 1899. Companies like Google are actually busily developing vehicles with onboard sensors that can navigate their manner around the globe whereas the folks inside sit again and enjoy the view. It also led to the call for improved roads to be constructed in lots of elements of the world. Though a brilliant mechanic, he had no skills to speak about world affairs.
That's an summary of the process, essentially, and when performed correctly, the outcomes might be fairly powerful and the modifications that happen in the outer world start to happen automatically. By selling or holding automobiles or another type that certain fails to make use of often they might no more must pay insurance on that car.

Susan McDuffie on Blog Tour for The Death of a Falcon, April 16-May 11
The Death of a Falcon: A Muirteach MacPhee Mystery
by Susan McDuffie
Liafinn Press
eBook & Paperback; 310 Pages
Genre: Historical Mystery
Series: Muirteach MacPhee Mystery, Book 4
Scotland, 1375: Muirteach MacPhee and his wife Mariota visit Edinburgh Castle, assisting the Lord of the Isles in his negotiations with King Robert II. A trading vessel arrives at the nearby port of Leith from the far away Norse settlement in Greenland. The ship brings unexpected diversion and carries coveted wares: gyrfalcons, unicorn's horns, and fine furs. Both King Robert and the Lord of the Isles desire the rare birds, easily worth a king's ransom.
Muirteach and Mariota, unaccustomed to the sophistication of castle life, initially find pleasure in the heady and flirtatious glamor of the royal court. Then sudden and unexpected cruelty, followed by the senseless death of a beautiful young girl, plunge the couple into a murky sea of alliances and intrigue that stretches from Scotland across the icy western ocean to the far northern lands of the Norse, leaving trails of treachery and murder in its wake.
Amazon | Barnes and Noble | IndieBound
Praise for the Award-Winning Muirteach MacPhee Mysteries
"McDuffie brings. this period to life in such a way that the reader is transported. Her characters are rich and multi-faceted. . . the perfect blend of history, rich in historical detail, and a mysterious investigation." -The Most Happy Reader
"A superb mystery, and historically correct in every aspect. McDuffie knows her Scottish history and this period intimately and is a powerful storyteller." -Reading the Ages
"Well-paced and engrossing." -Kirkus Reviews
"A good choice." -Library Journal
"Well worth reading." -CelticLady's Reviews
A fan of historical fiction since childhood, Susan McDuffie spent such vast amounts of time reading stories set in the past that she wondered if she had mistakenly been born in the wrong century. As an adult her discovery that Clorox was not marketed prior to 1922 reconciled her to life in this era. Susan's childhood interest in Scotland was fueled by family stories of the McDuffie clan's ancestral lands on Colonsay and their traditional role as "Keeper of the Records" for the Lords of the Isles. On her first visit to Scotland she hitchhiked her way through the Hebrides, and her initial visit to Colonsay and the Oronsay Priory ruins planted the seeds for her medieval mysteries. Those seeds have grown into the Muirteach MacPhee mysteries, set in medieval Scotland during the Celtic Lordship of the Isles. The series includes A MASS FOR THE DEAD, THE FAERIE HILLS (2011 New Mexico Book Awards "Best Historical Novel"), THE STUDY OF MURDER (New Mexico/Arizona Book Awards Finalist 2014), and THE DEATH OF A FALCON. Susan frequently presents at workshops and conferences and regularly reviews historical fiction books for the Historical Novel Society's "Historical Novels Review.
Susan lives in New Mexico and shares her life with a Native American artist and four cosseted cats. She enjoys taking flamenco dance classes in her spare time. Susan loves to hear from readers and can be contacted via Facebook or through her website.

Susan McDuffie on tour for The Study of Murder, September 16-25
Please join Susan McDuffie as she tours for The Study of Murder (Book Three, Muirteach MacPhee Mystery Series) from September 16 – 25.
Five Star Publishing
Hardcover; 264p
The Study of Murder pits Scottish sleuth Muirteach MacPhee against a mysterious adversary in the medieval town of Oxford in 1374.At the command of the Lord of the Isles, Muirteach and his wife Mariota accompany Donald, the lord's surly thirteen-year-old son, to Oxford where Donald is to enroll in university. Shortly after their arrival a winsome tavern maid disappears. At his charge's insistence, Muirteach attempts to help Undersheriff Grymbaud with the investigation, as well as keep Donald at his studies and out of the taverns. He has little success with either venture, although the discovery of some bizarre and suggestive drawings on old parchments piques the curiosity of Donald and his peers. Meanwhile, Mariota thirsts to attend medical lectures at the schools, which are closed to women, and seeks a way to gain admittance to them. When an Oxford master is found brutally bludgeoned to death, Grymbaud asks Muirteach to investigate the slaying. The eventual arrest of an aged servant at the college stirs the ever-simmering discord between townsfolk and university students. The unrest culminates in riots and another senseless killing occurs, endangering Mariota. Gleaning clues from a cryptic manuscript and desperate to save his wife, a determined Muirteach tracks a wily killer through a dark and twisted labyrinth of deceit.
Praise for The Study of Murder
"THE STUDY OF MURDER is a worthy addition to Susan McDuffie's 14th century Hebridean mystery series. Muirteach and Mariota may be in an alien world, when they accompany the son of the Lord of the Isles to Oxford, but neither town nor gown can match their clever wits in solving crime. This book is a treat for those of us eager for a fresh era, well-integrated history, and a host of interesting characters." – Priscilla Royal, author of the Prioress Eleanor/Brother Thomas Mysteries
Susan McDuffie has been a fan of historical fiction since childhood. As a child, Susan spent such vast amounts of time reading historical fiction that she wondered if she was mistakenly born in the wrong century. As an adult her discovery that Clorox was not marketed prior to 1922 reconciled her to life in this era. Susan's first published works were two Regency short stories in Regency Press anthologies.
Susan's childhood interest in Scotland was fueled by stories of the McDuffie clan's ancestral lands on Colonsay and their traditional role as "Keeper of the Records" for the Lord of the Isles. On her first visit to Scotland she hitchhiked her way through the Hebrides and the seeds for the medieval Muirteach MacPhee mysteries were planted.
The Muirteach mysteries include A MASS FOR THE DEAD (2006), THE FAERIE HILLS (2011), and THE STUDY OF MURDER (September 2013). The New Mexico Book Awards named THE FAERIE HILLS "Best Historical Novel" of 2011. Currently plotting Muirteach's next adventure, Susan shares her life with a Native American artist and four unruly cats, and enjoys taking flamenco dance classes in her spare time. She loves to hear from readers and her website is www.SusanMcDuffie.net.

We are living in strange world, and 'compassion' is a word that seems to be used less and less as time wears on. Forest Swords' latest album is here to change that. The record is steeped in soaring strings, reverberating percussion and ancient noise, bringing together a sound that is bounded in emotion.
There is a feeling of anxiety to the music, a constant struggle between the beautiful melodies and tense atmospheres that are built throughout the 10 tracks. Matthew Barnes, the mind behind Forest Swords, blends the past and present perfectly, merging digital sounds with scratchy, vintage samples. His seamless production sometimes making it hard to distinguish between the two.
The opening track 'War It' is an anxious introduction to 'Compassion', with its dusty layers and rattling drums. The following track and former single 'The Highest Flood' continues to take the LP into darker territories, building on the tension with distorted riffs and haunting vocal samples, creating a sound lifted from centuries past.
It's not all doom and gloom though. As the album progresses, little glimmers of light and hope begin to shine through. The lead vocal sampled during 'Arms Out', breaks through the dense production and reaches out an optimistic hand, powered by beautiful strings and rolling percussion.
Barnes' ability to manipulate samples is the driving force behind 'Compassion'. During 'Raw Language' he twists a few vocal notes into a euphoric choir, backed by a series of dramatic string stabs. The album closes with an ambient, piano-led affair, appropriately named 'Knife Edge' – which is where Forest Swords' music sits.
'Compassion' is a constant fight between past and present, light and dark, failure and hope. The balance is constantly sliding from one side to the other, so you never know which side will win. In a world where you're never quite sure what will happen next, you're only hope is that compassion will shine through.
'Compassion' is available now via Ninja Tune.

» What Is A Wet Reckless
How A "Wet Reckless" Can Reduce A DUI Charge
A San Diego driving under the influence (DUI) charge throws people into a process that is very scary and foreign process to them. Some people have friends or family who have had DUIs and they say it is an easy process. Other people have heard horror stories. The truth is that the prosecution of San Diego DUI cases have gotten continually tougher and that representation is needed in most situations.
Someone then asks the million dollar question, "what is going to happen?". Until the evidence is examined by an attorney who practices in the field it will be an unknown. People of course do not want a DUI on their record. Other people hope for the best, which usually comes in the forms of lower punishments and reduction of charges. The one I want to focus on is a reduction of a DUI charge called a "wet reckless." Call The Law Offices of Mark Deniz APLC now for a consultation at 858-429-9982.
What is Wet Reckless?
A wet reckless is the first of several reductions of a DUI charge that a person suspected of driving under the influence may take advantage of. Usually, a wet reckless is offered as a plea bargain when a person's blood alcohol content is close to 0.08% or when there are holes in the prosecution's case such that they would rather obtain a conviction of a lesser charge than lose at trial. If someone pleads guilty to a wet reckless charge, they are pleading guilty to Vehicle Code 23103 which, technically, is a charge of driving recklessly. However, what makes a charge of Vehicle Code 23103 "wet" is the fact that the prosecutor states for the record that alcohol or drugs were involved with the charge.
What Are The Chances Of Getting A "Wet Reckless"?
The answer to that question is a very familiar phrase in the legal field: "It depends." Usually, there must be a problem with the prosecutor's evidence in order to get a 0.13% reduced to a wet reckless. As a rule of thumb, DUIs are typically reduced to a wet reckless when the driver's BAC was close to the .08% legal limit, not well-above.
If your BAC was high, you don't want to hire just any attorney. You need someone who knows the court, the local judges, and the science behind DUI. Usually, there must be a problem with the prosecutor's evidence in order to get a 0.13% reduced to a wet reckless. As a rule of thumb, DUIs are typically reduced to a wet reckless when the driver's BAC was close to the .08% legal limit, not well-above. Call The Law Offices of Mark Deniz APLC now for a consultation at 858-429-9982.
Aggravated & Serious San Diego DUIs Get "Wet Reckless" Reductions
What about cases where the facts are more aggravating such as a really high BAC (.15% and above, accidents, etc). People tend to think one of two ways. In one camp, someone has a .22% BAC and they want a "wet reckless" charge. The other set of folks believe that with their facts there is no hope of a reduction. The truth is that is it MUCH harder with aggravated facts to get a "wet reckless" charge instead of a San Diego DUI. However, it happens everyday. There is usually something in the facts or the investigation, which leads to the case getting a favorable offer. It is probably healthier not to expect the result when the facts are more serious. The key is to hope for the best result possible, lift the sleeves, and get the best result possible in the given situation. Call The Law Offices of Mark Deniz APLC to get the ball rolling at 858-429-9982.
