Family Movie Night Activity: Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs
"You may have seen a meteor shower, but I bet you've never seen a shower "meatier" than this."
Flint Lockwood has always wanted to be an inventor, but he hasn't come up with something successful yet. When he figures out a way to change the water inside clouds into food, he's instantly more popular than sliced bread with not just the town folk but the whole planet! Things start getting crazy when the food requests start coming in faster and bigger! Will the machine be able to keep up? Will Flint do the right thing, even if it means giving up his success? Grab a snack, grab a seat and enjoy these Family Movie Night Activities.
*The first thing Flint's food making machine produces are Cheeseburgers with the works. Your family can enjoy burgers with pickles, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, ketchup, mustard and all their favorite toppings or serve up an iconic dinner of Spaghetti & meatballs, just like the name of the movie suggests.
*On another night the town gets to have breakfast for dinner. They enjoy eggs, toast, bacon, orange juice and even pancakes. Let everyone decide their favorite breakfast food and serve them all up for your Movie Night dinner.
*With a food oriented movie like this, there's no way you can skip desert! Have Jell-o, ice cream and Steve's favorite treat: Gummy Bears!
Must Pause Moments:
*Swallow Falls was famous for sardines until everyone realized they were gross. When Flint talks about all the different ways people can eat them, pause the movie and let each person watching the show decide which way they would eat sardines if they had to. Let them choose from poached, fried, boiled, dried, candied or juiced. You might even want to have some sardines for your family to really try, if you don't think they're gross, that is.
*When Flint realizes that his invention actually works he starts gasping with a wide open mouth. Have your family open their mouths as wide as they possible can and see if they can keep them open as long as Flint does. You can also see who can open their mouth the biggest!
*When Flint starts taking orders for things to have the Food Machine make start taking your families order. Let everyone write down or just tell each other what they would order from the machine if they could pick whatever they wanted.
*Flint is quite the science loving experimenter. Pass out lab coats to everyone in your family, or just grab some over-sized white button up shirts and try some of your own science experiments. While you probably won't come up with anything quite as crazy as Flint's inventions, a quick Pinterest search will help you find something bubbly, gooey, interesting and fun to do with your family.
*Flint and Sam both love Jell-o. Flint creates a whole Jell-o building full of gelatin furniture, sculptures and more. Make some Jell-o with your family and see what different shapes you can mold or cut it into. You could even make a game out of it by letting people make something out of their piece of Jell-o and see if everyone else can guess what it is.
*If you're going to see the movie, be sure you read the book! The book is quite different from the movie, but it's still a delightful family friendly book that your kids will love. If you like the book and the show then be sure to mark your calendars because Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2 comes out at the end of September.
*LyndiLou* - Movie Mom With An Appetite For Good Movies & Good Food
Rated PG for brief mild language; 90 min; Directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller
Imaginative with some clever humor.
It's not every day that it is raining food from the sky, wait, it never is unless you have a scientist named Flint Lockwood (Bill Hader) in your town. Flint was an awkward child and didn't have many friends but he loved science. He was not known for his "successful" experiments but more for his "blunders" until one day one of his so called accidents may have saved his town or so he thought.
While the animation and action in the movie were fun to watch, the storyline of the movie was definitely over my preschoolers head. Instead of just being silly, like the title implies, it touches on some mature subjects. Flint, who has a new found popularity, is thrust into the spotlight and deals with some peer pressure, especially from the Mayor of the town who persuades him that "Bigger is Better". You'll see that overindulgence has its consequences and you can definitely get too much of a good thing. Flint mostly stays true to himself especially when dealing with Sam the weathergirl whom he encourages to embrace her "nerdy" self and to not change for anyone. The complex relationship of parent and child plays out between Flint and his Dad who he thinks is not proud of him but they weather that storm and find understanding for each other. Mostly it was just ridiculous entertainment involving food falling from the sky, an animated film with appeal for kids and adults!
Motherly Advice: While I don't think this movie is best for preschoolers, my older nieces and nephews love this movie so I think kids 7 and up would have a better time following the humor and story. ClearPlay took care of some mild language and insulting comments with my filters set to Medium. The scary points in the movie have to do with when the food begins to have a mind of its own and becomes "giant food" which involves a storm that takes over the town. If you have a little one worried about natural disasters you may want to be aware of that.
Hannah – If I could put in my order, I'd ask for it to rain chocolate!
Animation, Family

A company website is the foundation of an online marketing strategy. Every link building tactic sends users to the website to find more information and hopefully, to convert.

This means that every component of the website needs to make it as easy as possible for the visitor to do so. You don't want to lose out on potential business because your...

Should Your Site Include a FAQ?
A few months ago, I was toying around with the idea of developing an SEO FAQ and incorporating it into my company site.

I thought that an SEO FAQ would be a valuable resource for potential clients, because they could find answers to their questions...

Who Is the Voice of Your Internet Marketing?
One of the most important things to consider before launching any kind of online marketing campaign is who the voice of the campaign should be, meaning who the message should be coming from. Some companies just assume that the message should come from the company name. While this may work for a product based company, it might not be the right approach for a service based company. Prospects that are looking to hire a service provider want to know about the people behind the brand name, the people that they...

Hakuna Matata SEO

Awesome Augmented Reality app from VW
As the months go by, I hear more and more about augmented reality. I have to admit, I thought the uptake would have been far quicker and perhaps I've missed a lot of things, but it's definitely not as popular as I had expected.

Thursday, June 22: Asia's Reckoning — Richard McGregor
The Press Restaurant
309 Hankou Road - Shanghai
Date(s) - Thursday, June 22 2017
After work talks
Join the FCC for a sneak peek at The Party author Richard McGregor's upcoming book on Sino-Japanese relations and the fate of U.S. power in east Asia. Entitled Asia's Reckoning, the book is a compelling account of the widening geopolitical cracks in a region that has flourished under an American security umbrella for more than half a century. The toxic rivalry between China and Japan, two Asian giants consumed with endless history wars and ruled by entrenched political dynasties, is threatening to upend the peace underwritten by Pax Americana since World War II. Combined with Donald Trump's disdain for America's old alliances and China's own regional ambitions, east Asia is entering a new era of instability and conflict. If the United States laid the postwar foundations for modern Asia, now the anchor of the global economy, Asia's Reckoning reveals how that structure is falling apart.
Speaker Bio: Richard McGregor was the Financial Times bureau chief in Beijing and Shanghai between 2000 and 2009, and headed the Washington office for four years from 2011. His book on the Chinese Communist Party published in 2010, The Party, was called a "masterpiece" by The Economist and won numerous awards in the US and overseas, including the Asia Society in New York award in 2011 for best book on Asia. He was a fellow at the Wilson Center in 2015 and a visiting scholar at the Sigur Center at George Washington University in 2016.
Venue: The Press Restaurant, G/F, The Shun Pao Plaza, 309 Hankou Road, near Shandong Zhong Lu 汉口路309号申报馆1楼A1-03近山东中路/5169-0777
Thursday, June 22, 7pm – 9pm (doors open at 7pm, event starts at 7.30pm)

Beautifully written! Captured me in paragraph 1 and I felt as though I was right there with you. Thank you for reminding me to stop and "see" how many miracles are bestowed upon us each day.
Wonderful story, beautifully written. I have learned to be amazed, thrilled, and deeply grateful for the ways God shows he cares for each of us, and how delightfully he manages the details. I especially love that you asked for an email, and he sent one! I usually ask for a billboard – maybe I should downsize and personalize like you!
Thank you so much for reading! It means a lot to me… And, yes, I find that if I just "listen", God does really speak to me… Sometimes I simply ask for a sign…. and I always get one…. That day, I think I was just being funny… but, you know what? I find that God likes to play, too….
I need stories like this,because despite once being very religious I have a hard time with trusting that all will turn out well for those who have Faith.My wife tells me this all the time.But you know the reputations that we men have when it comes to listening to our wives.The job I currently have is very fufilling.But I only wond up with it because I had lost several jobs in a short period of time.Maybe that was God's way of leading me to this job.Maybe I should start listening to my wife.Your story certainly emphasizes the power of faith.Thanks.
it is the old cliche, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him bathe in it, or was that drink it? at any rate, the Lord is always there and when we are ready, the Holy Spirit helps create the opportunity–we just have to say yes. As we used to casually say in HS, Keep the Faith.
And coming home again touched my heart so much. I am asking the angels to assist me in finding a new apartment.
Beautiful filled with light and just releasing my healing for the apartment gods to show me the way.
Thank you, more than you Will ever know.
Thank you for reading. This post was written a long time ago and I still live in this apartment today — and now, I go to daily Mass across the street.


This month our motivational story isn't really a 'story' it is more of a guide to motivation, and more specifically looking after your mental health. With the certain tragic events within the sport and health world, I felt this article was such an inspiring and motivationg article for anybody who needs some guidance!
We all feel low at times and we all need somebody to pick us back up, the trick is to accept it! So many people will berry their heads in the sand and pretend everything is OK.
Please read the following article from Sian Toal, a fitness expert from London who wrote this article to help people realise the importance of mental health! Well done Sian!

Auf der Reeperbahn nachts um halb eins ist ein Walzerlied, das von Ralph Arthur Roberts 1912 für die von ihm selbst inszenierte Revue Bunt ist die Welt komponiert und getextet wurde.
Der Text handelt vom Nachtleben auf der Reeperbahn im Hamburger Stadtteil St. Pauli. Das Lied wurde unter anderem durch die Verwendungen in den Filmen Große Freiheit Nr. 7 (1944 bzw. 1945) und Auf der Reeperbahn nachts um halb eins (1954) populär.

Der Titel des Liedes ist namensgebend für mehrere Filme:
 Auf der Reeperbahn nachts um halb eins, 1929, Regie Fred Stranz
 Auf der Reeperbahn nachts um halb eins, 1954, Regie Wolfgang Liebeneiner, u. a. mit Hans Albers
 Auf der Reeperbahn nachts um halb eins, 1969, Regie Rolf Olsen (Remake)

Neben Hans Albers coverte auch Freddy Quinn das Lied sehr erfolgreich.

Marlene Dietrich singt eine englische Version mit dem Titel "I May Never Go Home Anymore" (Text von Jack Brooks) in dem Film Zeugin der Anklage.

Text
Silbern klingt und springt die Heuer,
Heut' speel ick dat feine Oos.
Heute da ist mir nichts zu teuer,
Morgen geht ja die Reise los.
Langsam bummel ich ganz alleine
Die Reeperbahn nach der Freiheit 'rauf,
Treff ich eine recht blonde, recht feine,
Die gabel ich mir auf.

Komm doch, liebe Kleine, sei die meine, sag' nicht nein!
Du sollst bis morgen früh um neune meine kleine Liebste sein.
Ist dir's recht, na dann bleib' ich dir treu sogar bis um zehn.
Hak' mich unter, wir woll'n jetzt zusammen mal bummeln geh'n.
Auf der Reeperbahn nachts um halb eins,
Ob du'n Mädel hast oder auch kein's,
Amüsierst du dich,
Denn das findet sich
Auf der Reeperbahn nachts um halb eins.
Wer noch niemals in lauschiger Nacht
Einen Reeperbahnbummel gemacht,
Ist ein armer Wicht,
Denn er kennt dich nicht,
Mein St. Pauli, St. Pauli bei Nacht.

Kehr ich heim im nächsten Jahre,
Braungebrannt wie'n Hottentott;
Hast du deine blonden Haare
Schwarz gefärbt, vielleicht auch rot,
Grüßt dich dann mal ein fremder Jung',
Und du gehst vorüber und kennst ihn nicht,
Kommt dir vielleicht die Erinnerung wieder,
Wenn leis' er zu dir spricht:
Komm doch, liebe Kleine, sei die meine, sag' nicht nein!
Du sollst bis morgen früh um neune meine kleine Liebste sein.
Ist dir's recht, na dann bleib' ich dir treu sogar bis um zehn.
Hak' mich unter, wir woll'n zusammen mal bummeln geh'n.

Auf der Reeperbahn nachts um halb eins,
Ob du'n Mädel hast oder hast kein's,
Amüsierst du dich,
Denn das findet sich
Auf der Reeperbahn nachts um halb eins.
Wer noch niemals in lauschiger Nacht
Einen Reeperbahnbummel gemacht,
Ist ein armer Wicht,
Denn er kennt dich nicht,
Mein St. Pauli, St. Pauli bei Nacht.
Fassung von Hans Albers

Parodien

The Tragic Death Of Bruce Lee's Son, Brandon Lee
By J.E. Reich/May 28, 2020 2:02 pm EST
Even if your knowledge of basic Hollywood lore is limited, you're probably somewhat familiar with the death of actor Brandon Lee, the son of martial arts icon Bruce Lee, on the set of the 1994 cult film The Crow. It's a real-life tragedy that plays out like a Hollywood crescendo, or a fateful example of how life can indeed imitate art.
Lee played Eric Draven, a poetic rock star whose death at the beginning of the film becomes the animus for his resurrection as the vengeful titular Crow. In one of the movie's last scenes, Draven was supposed to be shot to death. The gun used to shoot Lee during filming was supposed to be filled with blanks, but a real bullet was inadvertently fired from the revolver, striking Lee in the spine. The actor was rushed to the hospital and underwent surgery, but he succumbed to the injury on March 31, 1993, at the age of 28.
At first glance, this might seem like all there is to the story, but if you dig deeper, it becomes clear that the death of this action movie star only scratches the surface. Here's everything you never knew about the death (and life) of Brandon Lee.
Brandon Lee lived in Bruce Lee's shadow
Brandon Lee was only 8 years old when his father, Hong Kong-American action movie icon and martial arts visionary Bruce Lee, died of a cerebral edema at 32. While the elder Lee was renowned for his balletic style and acting abilities, his death at a young age solidified him as an almost mythic figure, and after Brandon decided to pursue his own acting career, his father's legacy was one he could never shake. Not only did it put Brandon inherently in competition with his father, whom he idolized, but it also complicated the mourning process.
According to an article published in the Chicago Tribune in April 1993, an incident that occurred when Brandon was only 9 years old demonstrates this complex dynamic. Brandon was planning to train with his father's martial arts protege, Don Inosanto, but during that meeting, the little boy reportedly "took one look at the wall photographs of his father...and burst into tears."
The Chicago Tribune also described Brandon's reaction to a movie poster for Showdown in Little Tokyo. Brandon co-starred in the film with actor Dolph Lundgren, but rather than crediting "Brandon Lee" on the poster, he was listed only as "the son of Bruce Lee." From that point on, the up-and-comer reportedly "refused any publicity linking him to his father."
Brandon Lee purportedly had a preoccupation with death
In a 2014 blog post on Medium written by Shannon Bradley-Colleary, a screenwriter who purportedly dated Brandon Lee before his sudden rise to fame, she alleges the actor was haunted by the legacy of Bruce Lee and that it manifested in harrowing ways.
According to Bradley-Colleary's recollections, Brandon "[romanticized] rising stars who flashed out in car crashes or overdosed on drugs, whose early and untimely deaths made them legends; his father being one of them." His alleged "fixation" on death served as a "leitmotif" — he rode a motorcycle (carelessly, as Bradley-Colleary describes), and supposedly even owned a hearse (which Brandon supposedly stated was "great for camping [trips]").
In his darker moments, he would allegedly watch a newsreel of his father's own funeral –Brandon supposedly had a VHS tape of the event. As Bradley-Colleary recounted, he allegedly told her he would die "younger than [his] dad did." Bradley-Colleary "[believed] wholeheartedly that Brandon sought Fame [sic] to step out from under his father's shadow and the price of Fame [sic] was his life," she said.
Brandon Lee hated being stereotyped by Hollywood
Despite proving his acting chops — first as a student at Emerson College in Boston, which is renowned for its acting program, and then at the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute in New York City — Brandon Lee continuously had to demonstrate his worth. It's notable that the majority of his career was populated with action roles that capitalized on his Asian heritage and his father's legacy (most notably Showdown in Little Tokyo, Rapid Fire, Kung Fu: The Movie, and the Hong Kong flick Legacy of Rage). Part of this was because of his father's reputation as an icon in the martial arts film genre, but another (arguably larger) part stemmed from something more insidious: Hollywood's habit of stereotyping and relegating people of color into cartoonish and often offensive representations.
In a 1993 Chicago Tribune article, Village Voice reporter Jeff Yang asserted that both Bruce and Brandon Lee had tried to deliver nuanced representations of Asians and Asian-Americans on the silver screen and to break barriers (especially those that desexualized and emasculated Asian men). "When we were growing up, it was great to have Bruce as a symbol of Asian-American prowess," Yang said. "Brandon was talented, sexy, and strong and had all these hopes attached to him."
For Brandon Lee, The Crow could have been a new beginning
In a 1992 Australian television interview on The Midday Show, Brandon Lee noted that he had only been cast in action roles but hoped to play "Hamlet, finally, one day" and be taken seriously as a dramatic actor.
Less than a year after that interview took place, The Crow seemed to be the answer to Brandon's prayers. The film was veiled as a superhero movie in an era in which superhero movies were typically considered fodder for schlocky laughs, but it was so much more than that. As the Independent put it in a 2016 retrospective of the film, "Lee believed in the material, and considered its frank exploration of grief and the revenge impulse brave, even transgressive." The Crow would be his watershed — his gateway into the serious roles he knew he could tackle, despite a world seemingly so desperate to tell him otherwise.
Unfortunately, what seemed to be a role of a lifetime — if anything, a lifeline — would grant him infamy, but at a terrible cost.
Was Brandon Lee the victim of a supposed Crow curse?
Brandon Lee's death on the set of The Crow generated rumors of yet another Hollywood curse. As detailed in the Independent, the basis of the comic strip the film was based on was, in the end, almost an eerie portent to Lee's eventual passing.
Crow creator and graphic novelist James O'Barr reportedly conceived the strip after his fiancée was killed by a drunk driver. As O'Barr relayed in 2016, The Crow was a product of "[feeling] there was nothing in my future but nothingness and I was angry and furious...I carried that around for a few years until it became almost poisonous and I needed to do something."
O'Barr's own traumatic past was the first panel in what ultimately became a triptych of surreal coincidences. The Crow's plot hinged on the death of protagonist Eric Draven's fiancée, and in real life, Lee was planning to marry Eliza Hutton two weeks after production wrapped. Even though one of the aforementioned engagements was fictional, The Crow essentially left three people bereaved before its release.
Brandon Lee's death wasn't the only traumatic incident during The Crow
In addition to Brandon Lee's death during filming, a number of freak occurrences plagued the cast and crew throughout the film's production. According to the Independent, an electrician drove into a pylon on the first day of shooting and almost died on the set; a carpenter stabbed a screwdriver into his hand; a crewmember drove a car into the props workshop; and a "freak storm" reportedly cost the filmmakers "thousands of dollars worth of damage" during filming. All of this happened prior to the tragedy that many consider inextricable with the legacy of The Crow: the death of its star.
Some might argue, however, that the last victim The Crow curse was the man who fired the gun that killed Lee: actor Michael Massee, who died of stomach cancer in 2016 at age 64. Massee was a journeyman character actor whose credits include television show 24 and The Amazing Spider-man. He was never charged in relation to the accident (Police conducted an investigation to rule out foul play), but he was haunted by the tragedy nonetheless.
Despite his early death, Brandon Lee's legacy continues
Dan Levine/Getty Images
Though Brandon Lee's death on the set of The Crow has become an allegory of potential unrealized, his life's work was not in vain. As a number of academics have noted (via Beyond Bruce Lee), Brandon's brief stardom "promised the possibility of [acceptance in the mainstream] as he began to make inroads in the racist film industry." Without the work of both Brandon and his father, Bruce Lee, Asian representation in film would arguably not be what it is today. The overwhelming commercial and critical success of the 2018 rom-com Crazy Rich Asians, and the rising prominence of Asian and Asian-American actors in leading roles suggests that Brandon's vision is gradually materializing within the entertainment industry.
It's undeniable that Brandon Lee was taken from us far too soon, but in the end, we're thankful for the work he made, the art he lived for, and the ways in which his legacy lives on. In the end, he is so much more than the way he died or another version of a Hollywood urban legend — if we should remember anything, it should be the way he lived.

Q: Inspect large linked database in Access This sounds like a quite simple and straightforward question, but I tried to search online and could not find an answer to my problem. I would like to view the linked database from Access but the database is too large and every step takes forever to load the data. I wonder if there is a better way to inspect the data tables? Sorry if this has been asked somewhere else, I am a bit new to Access.

A: Well, you have the program part (often called the front end (FE).
Then you have linked tables to the data file 9often called the back end (BE).
So, I can't say there necessary going to be much difference then just looking at the list of linked tables in the nav pane (FE).
Or, you can fire up access, and open the BE file. At that point, you will again see the "list" of tables in the nav pane. About the only difference here is that you as a general rule can't make changes to the table structure(s) in the FE.
But, other than that, the performance should not be much different. Of course if you are on a network and the BE is in some folder? Well then your network connection of course can and will effect performance.
So, in that case, what one often does is simply copy the BE from the server folder to that of a local folder. You can then open + use + play + consume that database (BE) 100% local on your computer without a network between you and the data file. This will of course run MUCH faster, and thus let you see/play and look at the tables and open them to see data inside such tables.
So, all in all? Copy the BE to a local folder. You be working on a copy of the data (that's safe - can't mess up production data), but certainly performance wise you find that any performance considerations should be quite much eliminated.
And for development and testing? Often we take the BE and place it on our local computer (say laptop) and thus work with that BE local. And depending on how the FE (program/software part) is setup, often it will have some options to re-link and thus you can point the FE to a different BE.
Just keep in mind that if you make changes to the BE? And you want such changes from that copy to appear or be made on the production BE? Well, you have to make notes, since there not really a automated way to send changes (say new tables, or changes to table designs) to the production BE. And of course, one has to be VERY careful. You can make changes to the tables such as re-name, or changing field names - that will for sure break the FE program part. You can in most cases of course add new fields/columns to existing tables, and that in most cases should not break your software.
But, from a performance point of view? I am somewhat perplexed you note performance issues and problems. Perhaps there is some VPN between the FE and BE (and that does not work well at all - you in general require a good solid network connection - a LAN (not a VPN/WAN) between the FE and BE. If a VPN (WAN) is to be adopted, then in most cases the BE needs to be migrated to sql server - the FE (program) part can then used linked tables to SQL server, and not a file based BE.
So while above should make sense - it is somewhat perplexing the performance issue you dealing with, or that you note here? (that does not quite make a whole lot of sense).

Four candidates to replace Massa in 2018
Sat, 28 October 2017, 08:35
Oct.28 (GMM) Including an increasingly impatient Felipe Massa, there are now five serious candidates to be Lance Stroll's 2018 teammate at Williams.
It is believed team co-owner Paddy Lowe in particular is determined to choose between Robert Kubica, Paul di Resta, Pascal Wehrlein and now Daniil Kvyat to replace Brazilian veteran Massa.
The newest candidate is the freshly-axed former Red Bull junior Daniil Kvyat, after a strong race in Austin just a week ago.
But Red Bull's Dr Helmut Marko said: "One good race a year is not good enough."
"We have split with him," the Austrian confirmed.
Toro Rosso boss Franz Tost added: "He is no longer with Red Bull and therefore free to decide whatever he wants to do."
Another Williams candidate is current Sauber driver Pascal Wehrlein, whose backer Mercedes supplies the British team with engines.
"Toto (Wolff) is speaking to every team that could be an option, including Williams," Wehrlein told Auto Bild.
Asked if Williams would be a step up for him, the young German answered: "Definitely yes, it would be a big step for me."
Wolff denied reports that Mercedes is no longer supporting Wehrlein, 23.
"Williams is an independent team and decides for itself," he said, "but if I decided, Pascal is by far the fastest of all the candidates and would be the right yardstick for Lance Stroll."
But in truth, Lowe's favourite is said to be Pole Kubica, even though it is believed that in his recent shootout test, di Resta was two tenths faster.
It is believed the next step for Kubica is the Abu Dhabi test with Williams' current car, according to Auto Motor und Sport.
Massa said: "I really have no idea how he can drive. At least I could not drive with one arm and I can imagine he will get problems at least on some circuits."
The Brazilian also thinks he would be a better choice than di Resta.
"I do not think he is the right driver for the team and I don't think he's doing a good job where he currently drives," said Massa, referring to DTM.
He insisted: "The team should just tell me if they don't want me anymore. I have no problem with that.
"I retired last year and was at peace with myself. But I would like to have a clear answer before my home race in Brazil."

Quote from: Dudeman313 on February 28, 2016, 03:34:36 pm I think the sprites on the screen could be smaller, though. How do you like my Jade Statuette? It has Pi on it for some strange reason.
I've made the sprites smaller.
Here is some GIF which is far from being accurate. The animation is much nicer on the calculator.
Thank you! I'll download it soon.
On a side note, is it me or this game reminds me of Cave Story?
That depends on what Cave Story is.
after you exit. I find this annoying sometimes, especially if I manage to get far.
Will I have to try to beat it in one play through?
A save feature would definitively be nice, unless it's there already and you missed it in the readme. But of course it depends if the lack of a save feature is part of the challenge. Some NES games, such as Ghost and Goblins, had no save feature and had limited continues. The challenge was to complete the game in one sitting, but generally, the rule of thumb in game design is to include a save option if the game takes longer than an hour to complete by an expert.

This year marks the 21st year of existence for the Science Festival Africa currently underway in Grahamstown. Featuring five Department of Science and Technology's 2016 Women in Science winners who tackle science of social relevance, the SciFest aims to intensify the purpose of bringing science closer to the people mostly affected by science.
The theme Tour de Science, aims to encourage contributors to embark on a journey that explores the milestones, accomplishments, mysteries, discoveries and the historic and exciting wonders of their field of science.
The SciFest runs from Tuesday 8 until 14 March, mostly based at the Monument.
"It is important to encourage scientific research as opposed to treating science as something removed from us. Science is the air we breathe, the food we eat. We are science and yet there is a scarcity of science researchers and teachers in our country. We are scared to try it in case we fail and we fear failure," said Rhodes University's Professor Tebello Nyokong, Africa's most recognised scientist.
To demonstrate the importance of science and echo Professor Nyokong's sentiments about the social relevance of science, the programme features several critical research lectures on solutions to current social crises, such as draught. The programme features papers on Why and how do we manage water quality in South Africa, Downscaling Africa's Drought Forecasts through integration of indigenous and scientific drought forecasts, and A journey into the field of renewable energy.
Most of these papers will be presented by the five winners of the Department's science programme, Dr Muthoni Masinde, Dr Jane Catherine Ngila, Professor Shivani Bhardwaj Mishra, Dr Henrietta Wakuna Langmi alongside particle physicist Dr Claire Lee. Rhodes in collaboration with Oslo University in Norway will also present a paper titled Integrating indigenous local knowledge into education.
Naledi Pandor, Minister of Science and Technology, cited that "I am fully supportive of the important role of science festivals and science weeks in encouraging our youth to engage with science, and pursue science related careers". Pandor will pay a special visit to the festival over the weekend.
The SciFest has become the largest science festival in Africa, attracting over 56 000 visitors over the seven days. It has the multi-purpose of promoting understanding and appreciation of science, technology and innovation in South Africa.

High prices are perceived as one of the most critical problems in the energy sector and the area in which the government has been most unsuccessful in terms of energy policy, a recent poll has revealed.
The dependence on imported energy is seen as another major problem for the sector, according to Professor Volkan Ediger, the director of Kadir Has University's Center for Energy and Sustainable Energy, which commissioned the poll.
"Natural gas is the most used energy source in households; the consumer wants continuous access to energy sources," said Ediger.
Tell us about the poll.
I think this poll is a first of its kind since it is about the Turkish public's energy preferences. The poll was conducted last November with 1,204 people who were interviewed face to face.
In the first part, we asked questions to see the patterns on household energy consumption. Some 65 percent of consumers said they were spending the largest amount of money on energy for heating and then lighting. Some 54 percent use natural gas, 25 percent use coal and 12 percent use wood for heating. While natural gas is the most used energy source, the highest bill is paid for electricity, since 50 percent said electricity was the energy source they spend the most money on.
One of the questions we asked in this section was about electricity cuts. Some 47 percent said electricity cuts happened one or two times, and that's pretty normal. In addition, we saw that in some regions, electricity cuts are more frequent, especially in Southeast Anatolia. Probably that is because of security problems and unauthorized use is also highest in that region.
One of the most interesting findings is about insulation. Some 65 percent do not have any system of insulation. That means there is a big room for this type of industry. And also we have to do more to raise awareness. As income levels increase, more are inclined to have insulation.
In the second part, we asked questions on consumer preferences. The findings show that natural gas is the public's number-one preference as an energy source. When asked which energy source they would prefer to use in their house if they cost the same and were easily accessible, 63 percent said natural gas. Solar energy came second at 21 percent, followed by wind at 6 percent.
Can we say that the public prefers clean energy and has a high awareness of renewable sources?
Let me put it this way: the Turkish public likes natural gas. It is clean and easy to use. There is no danger in using it and it is relatively cheap. The poll shows that the bill they pay for natural gas is quite high compared to their income; still it is the cheapest option they can have. I also believe that the public knows that Turkey is geographically in an advantageous position as neighboring countries are rich in natural gas.
When it comes to solar energy, people are aware that Turkey is a very sunny country. I think they say, "The sun is there, it heats Turkey, so why don't we use it more?" But I don't think they know about the technology and how much it costs. They think there is plenty of sun and wind, so it should cost less.
One of the most important findings in this section was about the public's view on the cost of energy. On electricity prices, 50 percent said they were very high, while 35 percent said they found it high. In the case of natural gas, 32 percent found it high, while 33 percent said it was very high.
What are the other findings in the second part?
We asked what type of power plant they would prefer to have in their city. The top two are solar and wind. The least preferred is nuclear and coal plants.
Can we assume that the Turkish consumer is environmentally conscious?
I think they have confused views. Natural gas is their most preferred energy resource. When we asked about the world's future energy source, 40 percent say solar energy and 22 percent say natural gas. But when we ask if they cost the same and were easily accessible, they said they would prefer natural gas to solar energy.
I think starting with the President Turgut Özal, who was the first to sign natural gas agreements in 1986, successive governments have pursued successful natural gas policies. They invested in pipelines, and natural gas became available in big cities and later in rural areas, too. Turkey is covered by a natural gas system. When it comes to solar and wind energy, it is popular in their ideal world because they must think it is relatively cheap, which is not actually the case.
The public seems to be wary of nuclear plants as well.
Yes, but that approach changes when it is presented as a government policy.
The poll shows that the majority believe nuclear power plants involve environmental and health risks. And they wouldn't choose to have a nuclear power plant in their city. But their view on nuclear energy differs according to their party affiliation as well. Some 42 percent say they trust the government rhetoric on the safety of nuclear power plants. More than 50 percent of AKP [Justice and Development Party] supporters say they trust the government's rhetoric on the safety of nuclear energy. The highest objection to nuclear energy comes from the Peoples' Democratic Party [HDP], followed by the Republican People's Party [CHP].
So the public's views on energy policies are politicized.
Exactly. Everybody supports the energy position of their own party. The public finds energy prices to be high. But when we ask about what they think about the government policy, they say they support it. So that's the third part of the poll. Some 58 percent who said they voted for the AKP said they supported the government's energy policies. The political line you see on other issues is similar on energy issues as well. On one end, we have the ruling AKP with the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) closer to it and on the other end, we have the HDP with the CHP.
Another interesting finding in that section regards support for different energy policies. The oil and natural gas pipelines policy tops the list with 38 percent finding it successful; this is followed by the purchase of natural gas.
The least successful one is energy prices.
But then we asked their views on the Turkish Stream [a new pipeline project that will carry Russian gas to Europe via Turkey], they have no idea what Turkish Stream is. Some 86 percent said, "I have no information about it."
On the one hand, the government's policy on oil and gas pipeline policy is described as successful, yet the most recent instrument in that policy, Turkish Stream, is unknown to the public.
So they support energy policies but they don't know exactly what they support.
In a way. Since the 1990s, there has been a lot of talk about Turkey being a transit country for pipelines. And since they use natural gas in their daily lives, they probably support pipeline policies. But there has been so much talk about Turkish Stream; it is an issue that is frequently covered in the media. However, they are not informed about it.
In the meantime, the poll has shown that they do not take into consideration energy policies when they vote. In fact, energy issues rank eighth on the list of Turkey's most important problems. The first three are education, domestic security and economy.
What does this tell us?
It is normal. Energy prices are seen as a problem but they probably see it under the headline of the economy. When they ranked energy as eighth as the most important problem, I think they look at it as energy supply security. "Will I have access to gas or not?" "Will it be cut or not?" "Will I freeze in the middle of winter or not?"
Otherwise, when it comes to the question of what is the most important problem for Turkey's energy system, dependence on imported energy and energy prices emerge as the most important problems.
We asked the same question two different ways and the result were the same. The fact that the consumer sees high prices as a problem is normal. When it comes to dependence abroad, I find that interesting because they probably don't look at it from a strategic but rather a pragmatic point of view. I relate it to the problems we had we Russia, when relations deteriorated with our most important supplier. There have been debates in the past, too, about whether there would be cuts in natural gas. They are concerned whether they will remain in the cold. Also, another factor could be the government's tendency to hold the outside world responsible for everything negative. So they might fear that foreign suppliers might cut the gas or that they are responsible for these high prices.

We might forget that musicians have a life just like the rest of us. All we see when we look at them is the music they make or the part of their life that they show us. But they are just like any person with favorite places, venues, likes, and dislikes. And when they are not making music, they seem to appreciate the simpler part of life even more than us.
One of life's most interesting things is food, and musicians have their favorite foods just like us. In fact, some of the famous dishes that are popular today have been invented by musicians or actors, composers, singers, or other famous people.
Paganini Ravioli – Pasta is a favorite with all people while ravioli is not just pasta but so much more. This dish was one of the first dishes to use tomatoes in Italian cuisine. Known as Genovese Ravioli with beef ragout, it became so popular that it was registered in the Library of Congress as an innovation by Niccolò Paganini, the violinist.
Eggs Berlioz – Soft-boiled eggs to which Duchesse potatoes, truffles, croustades, and mushrooms have been added in a light Madeira sauce. This dish has the name Berlioz after the French composer Hector Berlioz.
Salsa Caruso – A light sauce with a cream base added to onions, ham, nuts, cheese, and mushrooms – creating a sauce that is usually served with thin pasta or spaghetti. It was named after Enrico Caruso – the famous tenor and it went on to become a part of Uruguayan cuisine culture.
Tournedos Rossini – This is a dish that was a favorite of the composer Gioachino Rossini. It is a French dish where tournedos steaks are pan-fried in butter and served on a crouton and garnished with foie gras, black truffle, and a demi-glace sauce.
Guacamole – It's a favorite of Jack White, and he has a specific recipe for it that is made of avocados, dried tomatoes, onions, Serrano peppers, cilantro, as well as salt and pepper.
Chicken Dhansak– This is a spicy Indian lentil recipe, incorporated with chicken, spinach, cilantro, cumin, mint, cassia bark, mustard, chili, to mention just a few of the ingredients. Freddie Mercury – frontman, singer, and songwriter of the band 'Queen' named it as his favorite dish and is served with plain rice.
Crunchy Sesame Hemp Tofu– A vegetarian dish that is not just nutritious, but Ziggy Marley advised those who don't like tofu to try it. The recipe is a mix of cornmeal, sesame seeds, coconut oil, rice flour, hemp seeds, tofu, among others.
Fried peanut and banana sandwich was a favorite of the famous music legend Elvis Presley.
Finally, Lady Gaga (you can look here for Lady Gaga tickets without service fees) has worn a dress made from meat but she does eat meat as her family owns an Italian restaurant and they have a special recipe for meatballs – milk, eggs, cheese, basil, parsley, pork, beef, and more in the recipe. It's not a big surprise that most of the foods loved by the famous musicians are, just like we love their music concerts, the part of the favorite foods list of many of us as well.

Could we really plant our way out of climate change?
Hi, I was wondering how much carbon is locked up in the huge amounts of timber that have been cut and used for building, furniture etc. Likewise with paper. What are the major problems with planting more trees to use as carbon sinks?
As a rough guide, carbon makes up 50% of the mass of dried timber. So if your wooden desk weighs 20kg, it's storing 10kg of carbon. Timber only starts losing carbon when it starts to rot, and the carbon is converted to greenhouse gases - CO2 if it rots in the open air, or methane (CH4) if it rots underground.
In terms of using trees as carbon sinks, there's only one real problem - it takes a lot of trees and a lot of land.
To soak up the carbon dioxide that the average Australian produces (24.5 tonnes/yr) you'd have to plant about 90 trees every year. And those trees have to be maintained and replaced when they die. Multiply that by 20 million Australians and you're talking 1.8 billion trees being planted on a different 3 million hectares of land every year - and maintained indefinitely.
Australia's only got about 800 million hectares of land and half of that's desert, so even if we stop growing food we'll have planted out all our arable land in just over a century. It's not what you'd call a long term solution.
