LA becomes home to the world's first Cupcake ATM vending machine
By Efrosini Costa	| September 26, 2013
LA's sugar addicts are getting their fix of butter-cream frosted treats thanks to a world first cupcake vending machine.
The Cupcake ATM outside Sprinkles Cupcakes
Sprinkle Cupcakes is a well-established food hot-spot for LA.
The Beverly Hills company is now said to be considering locations in London to install a similar device.
Displaying the available cupcake flavours of the day.
The machine dispenses the cupcakes individually in cardboard boxes.
The company reportedly sold 1,000 cupcakes a day when it launched the ATM – and even reported that the machine crashed because of high demand.
Only in LA could one find a machine that caters to a sugar craving at any time fot the day or night.
Sprinkles Cupcakes, an LA-based company that has been delighting locals with it's delicious sugar coated creations for some time now, has developed a vending machine to dispense freshly-baked cupcakes.
A successful first-day saw the company sell over 1000 butter-cream frosted cupcakes to passers-by – the high demand reportedly lead to the machine crashing later that day.
The ATM is continuously restocked throughout the day and night with a choice of eight cupcake flavours at any one time.
Nicole Schwartz, head of marketing at Sprinkles, says that the machines can hold up to 600 cupcakes- with any cake dispensed having been freshly baked only a couple of hours earlier.
'The machine is attached to our bakery, which is essentially a 24-hour operation. By the time our closers leave at night, it's 11pm and our bakers arrive in the wee hours of the morning (2 or 3am!)," Schwartz told reporters.
'We'll constantly be restocking the automat with freshly baked cupcakes so the cupcake you receive will only have been baked a couple hours earlier," she added.
But the treats won't be restricted just to the company's human patrons. While pets are not allowed in the store, due to strict health regulations, the machine will dispense treats for them:
"So you don't have to tie up Fido while you head inside," Schwartz explains.
Sprinkles is as famous in the US for its A-list fans as it is its buttercream-frosted treats. Heidi Klum, Blake Lively and the Kardashian girls are frequently spotted at the LA store.
Soon the machine will extend it's services to another continent with the expected launch onto London streets later this year. Cupcakes, which come in all manner of flavours from cinnamon sugar to chocolate coconut, sell for $3.50 each or $39 per dozen in the States, and prices are likely to be similar when the cakes launch in the UK.

Sfoglina, Sfoglino is someone who makes sfoglia, a form of Italian fresh pasta which resembles a sheet. A sfoglina is historically seen as a middle-aged woman who rolls and stretches out the dough with a rolling pin called a mattarello, on a large wooden pastry board called a taglieri. Their typical handmade creations are tagliatelle, tortellini and other egg-pasta, also many times stuffed pasta like tortelloni or cappeletti.

Definition
The Sfoglina tradition comes from the Emilia-Romagna region, where sfoglina is also called "azdora" or "zdoura" in both Emilian and Bolognese dialects. Bologna is the city where this figure and the art of sfoglia (pastry) was born. Its housewives used to say, "You will know when you did a good sfoglia because if you lift it in the direction of light, you will be able to see the Sanctuary of the Madonna di San Luca".

Sfoglina is centuries old and was present in every Emilian family. The tradition of home-made fresh pasta is still very widespread. Sfoglinas also work in restaurants and trattorias, although less often. Nevertheless, she still represents the cookery art of Emilia-Romagna, as made by its artisans.

Practices
Fresh pasta is usually produced by sfoglinas in a small laboratory that is simply furnished. While they are working, they usually wear a white uniform with an apron and listen to Italian songs.

The sense of community is strong in the laboratories. They create an environment redolent of Italian domestic culture. These conditions are important in order to guarantee the authenticity of the product. Sfoglina is associated with festivities and Sunday celebrations where women together prepare the meal for the family. This convention can be seen at the amateur level as well from the name of the fresh pasta competitions, the most famous is "Miss Tagliatella".

Professionalization
The practice of sfoglina is not regulated, either nationally or regionally. Supporters of professionalization claim that the lack of regulation stems from the fact that it is considered a typically female job and as such does not qualify.

The idea of professionalisation dates from 2004 when Emilian Franco Grillini, a former member of Parliament, submitted a two-part bill, one involving the creation of a committee for the protection of the Emilia-Romagnan sfoglia and another to regulate the profession of "sfoglina" and "sfoglino".

Moreover, to Grillini it was important to free sfoglia from its traditional stereotypes: opening the profession to men. Therefore, according to Grillini's vision, such a law should have enhanced the dignity and prestige of the "sfoglinas" craft. The proposal was ultimately dismissed.

Another attempt at regulation was made in 2017 by then democratic senator Sergio Lo Giudice. He proposed training courses and the accreditation of sfoglinas and sfoglinos at a regional level. Lo Giudice's bill was also rejected.

Promotion
Cultural intermediaries and producers have allied to promote consumption of local, traditional and sustainable produce. Initiatives to promote sfoglinas' work, the inauguration of VSB (acronym of "Vecchia Scuola Bolognese") represents an attempt to restore dignity and visibility to the craft. VSB is a space in Bologna, dedicated to food culture. It is considered the house of sfoglinas, under the guide of sfoglina Alessandra Spinsi. The school offers many courses for beginners and professionals to learn traditional cooking.

Struggling to Grow Your Remodeling Company?
Are you trying to get your construction or remodeling contractor company to grow through effective digital marketing? Here we tell you how using the right keywords will help you get the best way to the right visitors in your home remodel SEO campaign.
Without visitors, your website is nothing more than a digital paperweight that does nothing but accumulate digital dust in some far corner of the network. In this era, your Internet site should be one of your most reliable sources to get potential customers to generate new projects.
To get your Internet site to attract potential customers for your construction contractor company, you have to attract search traffic that may be in need of hiring your services. If you are the contractor in your area that has an optimized home page on your website that is dedicated to "kitchen remodeling" and has included the correct keywords "kitchen remodeling estimate" and "cost of remodeling" Kitchens "As part of your content, you will begin to concentrate your search traffic based on the person's" intention ".
The problem that most construction or remodeling contractors have is that they have no idea of the right keywords to use (some people do not even know what a keyword is) and not all types of search traffic are created in the same way. In fact, a part of the search traffic can become a total waste of time and money in marketing that is not worth obtaining.
A keyword is the search term or phrase that a person could enter in a search engine with the purpose of finding a website that solves their problems or that provides the service they need.
This is the reason why it is so important for contractors to understand the "intention" of searching for a person in order to improve the SEO positioning of their business and be able to change the conditions of the game considerably.
What is the "intention" when we talk about search traffic?
Well … It's the reason behind the searches that users do. What is a person really looking for? What is the main reason for that search?
A person who is looking for "remodeling" on Google is someone who performs very generic and extensive searches. You might want to know about thousands of different aspects of remodeling. Therefore, it is not necessarily a good keyword to use with your website, especially in paid traffic.
To reach the search users according to their intention, we need to concentrate on "long-tail keywords" that are short phrases (not a single word) that a person could enter in a search engine to find the services you offer.
Let's add a few more words to explain this concept.
"Remodeling kitchens" … We have already delimited our search to include the kitchen, but it is still quite generic because we do not know exactly what you want to know about "kitchen remodeling". There could still be many things, like ideas or photographs. Surely he does not even have the remotest intention of requesting the services of a contractor.
But what if we use the terms "kitchen remodeling company" or "kitchen remodeling contractor"? Now we are getting closer to our goal. We know that this person is looking for a "kitchen remodeling company" or a "contractor", so the opportunity to turn him into a good potential client or even a firm client is much greater. Why? Because we know what your "intention" is!
How about we use "estimated kitchen remodeling"? Or maybe "cost of remodeling kitchens"? Now we are much closer to hitting the target. We know that this person wants an estimate for the remodeling of a kitchen or that they are looking for costs.
How do you capture HOT buying leads?
If you are the contractor in your area that has an optimized home page on your website that is dedicated to "kitchen remodeling" and has included the correct keywords "kitchen remodeling estimate" and "cost of remodeling" Kitchens "As part of your content, you will begin to concentrate your search traffic based on the person's" intention ".
Understanding the "intent" of user search and how to channel it effectively will invariably increase the qualified traffic and will result in an increase in the flow of potential customers.

Everyone was now in good mood, including the Official Philadelphia Phillies World Series Bound 2022 shirt . We had a grand time giving away tress. And we gave away thousands of trees. My girlfriend and I had just spent the last three days in a heavy rain, giving away free Christmas trees. Everyone made the best of a rainy situation. This put us both in a very good mood. I do not have any memories of Christmas day; however, two days later I asked my girlfriend if she would marry me. We had been dating all of six weeks. She said yes. We now have been married for over 45 years and often think about the "Great Christmas Tree Caper" around the holiday.
(Official Philadelphia Phillies World Series Bound 2022 shirt)
Yes it is and there is a reason for that. As of 2019 Mariah Carey has made over 60 million dollars off of that Official Philadelphia Phillies World Series Bound 2022 shirt. None of her other songs have made that kind of money but the reason is simple. Every year around Christmas time the song is re-released and continues to sell. Consider the fact that the song was released in 1994 so it has been on the charts every year for the past 25 years so is it any wonder that it is her biggest hit? That is the thing about Christmas songs, every year they have a chance to chart again. No regular release has as many chances to make money and sell records like a Christmas song does. Paul McCartney makes over $400,000 a Official Philadelphia Phillies World Series Bound 2022 shirt from Wonderful Christmas song so it is one of his best selling songs ever and has also made him millions of dollars, although nowhere near to what Mariah has made for her song. Perhaps it holds up so well because it sounds like it was written in an older era, giving the illusion that it's been popular for a very long time. It's only recently that Official Philadelphia Phillies World Series Bound 2022 shirt became aware that this song wasn't written in the 1960s, as I'd always assumed. There are quite a few Christmas pop songs from the mid 20th century that I only became aware of when I was in my 20s. So when "All I Want for Christmas Is You" came out in 1994, I must have thought it was just another one of those older Christmas pop songs I hadn't been familiar with before.

Rugby has something the NFL lacks — the tantalising prospect of representing your country in a meaningful international competition. In the 24 years of pro Rugby Union, the USA have traditionally had a rag-tag bunch of professional players ranging from second generation migrants from rugby playing families like Samu Manoa, who was playing amatuer rugby in the US and was talent scouted from a US reserve team tour into the top flight of European club rugby, to players like former USA captain Chris Wyles who was born in the states but moved to England as a Official Philadelphia Phillies World Series Bound 2022 shirt and played his rugby in Europe. One of the guys from our school team in England ended up playing for the USA at the Rugby World Cup because he had an American born mother. Other USA players like AJ McGinty (who is Irish and plays for an English club) qualify for the USA national team via residency after studying there. If rugby takes off in the US as a semi-pro / pro club game, there is every likelihood of good college footballers switching sports and America producing a team of majority home-grown talent, but unlikely it will include many ex-NFL players, if any.
For us it depends, if we're hosting thanksgiving at our house then we will typically start put up the Official Philadelphia Phillies World Series Bound 2022 shirt on thanksgiving weekend, sometimes even right before after thanksgiving dinner. Since we have guests over we use that as an excuse to take advantage of the additional helping hands. Instead of asking for help in the kitchen we'll get through decorations. Plus I think it also makes for a decent pre-dinner workout activity. If we're not hosting thanksgiving then we'll put up the decorations little by little with the aim to finish by December 1st. I don't know why but I like the idea of being able to enjoy the lights all throughout December. As for when we'll take them down, there's no set date but we definitely keep them up past New Years and at least a few weeks into January. I think the longest we had them up was until Valentine's Day, we had spent the entire most of January in Florida that one year.

Edward Snowden documents show Malaysia is an Australia, US intelligence target
By Philip Dorling
March 30, 2014 — 11.19am
Malaysia's political leadership is a priority intelligence target for the United States and Australia, according to top secret documents published by Germany's Der Spiegel magazine.
Former Malaysian Abdullah bin Haji Ahmad Badawi, who served as Malaysian prime minister from October 2003 to April 2009, is listed in an extract from the US National Security Agency's "Target Knowledge Base", a database designed to build up "complete profiles" of high priority intelligence targets.

Abdullah Badawi's name appears in a list of eleven heads of government, including Germany's Angela Merkel, Syria's Bashar al-Assad, Belarus's Alexander Lukashenko, and former Colombian president Alvaro Uribe. The top secret briefing, created in 2009, indicates that the full list of targeted heads of foreign governments contained 122 names. The final name on the list is Yulia Tymoshenko, who was Ukrainian prime minister at the time.
According to Der Spiegel a National Security Agency search program codenamed "Nymrod" enables intelligence analysis to search the database to "find information relating to targets that would otherwise be tough to track down". Nymrod sifts through signals intelligence reports based on intercepted communications as well as transcripts of faxes, phone calls, and data collected from computer networks. Each of the names in the database is considered a "SIGINT target" with automated data processing making it possible to manage more than 3 million entries.
Part of the trove of highly classified documents leaked by former US intelligence contractor Edward Snowden, the secret briefing published by Der Spiegel also shows that intelligence on foreign leaders is shared between all "5-eyes" intelligence partners – the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
Former members of the Australian Parliament's joint intelligence committee have confirmed to Fairfax Media that the Malaysian government, political leadership and defence force have been long been targeted by Australia's electronic spy agency, the Australian Signals Directorate, and by the Australian Secret Intelligence Service.
Australia bugged Malaysia Cabinet ministers
Fairfax Media has been told that in the early 1990s Australian intelligence successfully eavesdropped on Malaysian Cabinet talks, recording highly uncomplimentary remarks by then Prime Minister Mahathir Mohammed about Indonesian President Suharto. A decade later parliamentary joint intelligence committee members were briefed on the Australian Signals Directorate's access to Malaysian defence force communications, including interception of video conference channels used by Malaysia's defence chiefs.
Confirmation that Abdullah Badawi was targeted for intelligence collection is the latest in a series of unprecedented disclosures of US and Australian intelligence operations against South East Asian countries.
In August last year Fairfax Media revealed that the Australian Signals Directorate is in a partnership with British, American and Singaporean intelligence agencies to tap undersea fibre optic telecommunications cables through South East Asia. Fairfax Media also reported on the use of US and Australian embassies in East and South East Asia, including those in Jakarta and Kuala Lumpur, as secret bases for signals intelligence collection program codenamed "Stateroom".
In November the Guardian and the ABC reported that the Australian Signals Directorate had intercepted the mobile phone of Indonesian president Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, his wife and many of his closest political associates.
In response, Indonesia broke off formal military cooperation with Australia and demanded a new "code of conduct" be reached with Australia before cooperation resumes.
Other revelations have included cooperation between the US National Security Agency and its Australian counterpart in targeting a 2007 United Nations climate change conference in Bali.
According to other National Security Agency documents published by the New York Times, the Australian Signals Directorate has accessed bulk call data from Indosat, Indonesia's domestic satellite telecommunications provider, and obtained nearly 1.8 million encrypted master keys, which are used to protect private communications, from Indonesia's Telkomsel mobile telephone network in Indonesia, and developed a way to decrypt almost all of them.
Earlier this month, Foreign Minister Julie Bishop said the new code of conduct being negotiated between Australia and Indonesia will include a clause dealing with intelligence activities.
"I made it quite clear that Australia would not use its resources - our intelligence resources - to the detriment of our friends and neighbours and that includes Indonesia," she told the ABC Lateline program.
Ms Bishop said Australia has submitted a draft of the code of conduct, which she described as a "joint understanding", however she expected progress to be slow in the lead-up to Indonesia's legislative elections next week and presidential elections in July.

Salt Is Death
I saw an item on the news today--wow, Americans are getting twice as much salt per day as they should. Scaaaaary.
It's because of...(dunno, I may have dozed off here)...but if restaurants would just cut in half the amount of salt they put on items, then it would save like 100,000 lives a year.
And yeah, I'm cynical. But I thought, "Really, do we need 100,000 more people in the world than we have? Is there anyone who thinks, 'Man, the answers to the world's problems is MORE PEOPLE!"?
Whenever those kind of stats come up, I just think--Hey, the fewer people, the better.
Then I can hear the old "abortion" argument--what if one of those was Einstein or Mozart? Let's be honest: If one of those was Einstein or Mozart, then five of them were Hitler, twelve of them were Dahmer, 50 of them were pedophiles, etc.
Even trade if you ask me.
I dunno. I think my cynicism has beaten me down. Whenever I see one of those movies/television shows where an alien or something declares that "Man is worth saving--see how noble and loving they can be!"...I just shake my head. I don't believe it.
I honestly don't think that mankind, on the whole, is a more positive force than negative. Am I wrong?

My Team Is The Best
I've been a Miami Dolphins fan since I was a little kid. The reason isn't important.
I used to be rabid, but calmed down after Marino left. They just weren't the same Dolphins--they were just bad.
But this year they're setting new lows. Going into this week they were 0-10. Yep, winless in 10 games. It's actually pretty hard to lose that many games in a row, even if you do suck.
I had forgotten that tonight they played the Steelers. There wasn't much hope of them winning. Guess what? Final score of the game: 3-0
That's weird, as it is. It's the lowest scoring game in Monday Night Football's history.
You know what's weirder? Miami lost.
Yep. Couldn't score 4 points. Man, they are some kind of bad.
So I really wanted to see this movie--I mean, Darabont doing King stuff again. I'm there even if he does Gerald's Game.
Anyway, Thanksgiving was over and I figured I might take in the late show(11:15pm). I called my buddy that works there and asked how busy the theater was--no way was I going if the place was a zoo. He said they weren't very busy.
Sweet. I called another buddy and he said he'd meet me up there.
We walk in the theater and it really isn't very crowded. We sit down. I'm thinking--hey, maybe coming to the late show wouldn't be so bad. (You know what I mean--they're typically populated by loud, obnoxious drunk people. I figured--most drunk people on Thanksgiving would stay home, right?)
With only five minutes to go before showtime, the theater starts to fill up. A group of loud people come in, but thankfully go sit WAY in the back.
The movie starts--people continue to chatter. I'm hoping they'll settle down.
Nope, still chatter. And not just one or two people. It's hard to zero in on where it's coming from. Someone shouts, "Shut the f*ck up!" and some people laugh.
The movie continues. Most people have fallen fairly quiet as the movie really begins to get tense. But there's this CHIRPING every minute or so. I can't determine if it's someone in the theater's phone or if it's in the actual film.
Then the movie fades to black and the CHIRPING happens--it's someone's goddamn phone. And it's been going on for like 5 minutes. Someone else shouts "Shut that f*cking thing off! and the offending girl shouts back, "You shut the f*ck up!"
I don't get it--this girl knows it's her phone and she hasn't shut it off. I notice people getting up and leaving--I hope to get a manager.
Sure enough, about fifteen minutes later a manager and a cop come in and stand at the bottom. The chirping has stopped, but someone's still talking on occasion.
Finally the manager goes up the stairs--I hear talking, then a loud voice clearly says, "Okay, you're out of here. Let's go!" Someone else says, "Fine." The loud voice: "Now!"
The cop walks up the stairs too. A second later the loud entourage is escorted out--shouting things in the middle of the movie just to get their last annoyance in. (or so I thought)
After they're finally outside I thought, "Hey, we can finally enjoy the last hour of so of the movie."
But no. Loud shouting outside of the theater can be heard--the group is apparently arguing with the cop or the manager. It goes on for another couple of minutes.
Staggering. But after that it was quiet.
The movie was pretty good. It's stays relatively faithful to the story(I think--been a while since I read it, but now I'm gonna re-read it) but the ending of the movie is a doozy. It's not too open-ended like King's short story, but prepare yourself--it's pretty tough.
That's three good movies I've seen lately. I don't know how this trend can continue unless all those bad Netflix movies I've been renting are generating good karma for me.
Next from Netflix, unsure why: I Spit On Your Grave, Cannibal Holocaust, and Rescue Dawn.
Reviewing a lot of movies lately--maybe I should just turn this into a movie critique blog...
Anyway, didn't know much about this flick other than the Coen's did it.
Without spoiling much, let me say it was pretty great. Funny dialogue--I mean, the most ridiculously simple conversation turns into very funny stuff. Javier Bardem--who I always kind of thought was a goofy older guy--turns in one of the most chilling portrayal of a sociopath I've seen in a long time.
Good performances all around, from Josh Brolin(anyone who's considered a joke needs to look at how this guy turned his career around; remember when he was in nothing but crappy direct-2-dvd flicks?) to Bardem to Tommy Lee Jones.
My only gripe is that the movie has no climax. There's lots of buildup all around, but the ends just kind of meanders in, and culminates in the off-screen death of one of the main characters. It's a little strange, and really the only thing keeping me from saying this movie is the best movie I've seen in a couple of years.
Go check it out--it's along the lines of Fargo more than The Big Lebowski, if you're trying to gauge the Coen-ism of it.
I Am Beowulf(Or How 3D Is Back(And Cool))
Saw this Tuesday night. Gotta say, it's a lot of fun.
The 3D is very cool--none of that red/blue stuff.
Not gonna say a lot about it, but I do want to see it again so maybe I can pay more attention to the 3D. I'd recommend seeing it, but it's a pretty hard PG-13, so I wouldn't take any real youngsters with you.

Afterdark Horrorfest: 0 for 2
Case in point: Tooth and Nail.
This movie is some kind of bad. The script is so so sooooooo laughably bad...I just don't know what to say.
Let's start. It's a post-apocalyptic world. Why? Well, we ran out of gas faster than we expected. I can't tell you, however, why that means the end of the world. Ever heard of electricity? (and for those that don't know, we can actually get electricity without gas...)
But no--we ran out of gas so now no one has electricity or power, the world is in chaos! I mean, I guess it is. That's what they tell you. But really, all we see are ten or so people stuck in a hospital--it's where they've decided to try to live out their existence.
95% of the flick takes place here. You've got your cliche'd characters: Tough guy(you know this because his name's Viper), smart guy(you know because his name's Darwin). I'm not kidding--those are the names.
I'm surprised the rest of the cast isn't named 'Tardgirl, Slut, Grumpy, Newgirl, Mexican, and All American.
So tough guy leaves--he doesn't like how stuff is run. Then some rejects out of Road Warrior show up. Seriously, I think this was supposed to be like a year after we ran out of gas. Is there a How To Dress In the Post-Apoc World For Dummies that says you paint your face, put on leather, and carry bladed weapons?
And what we learn is--they're cannibals! Ooooooooh, so scary. But it leads to this gem of dialogue, and I swear I am not exaggerating.
Girl1: "They're cannibals. They eat people. They came, they took my family and friends, and they ate them."
Guy: "What do you mean?"
I actually started laughing in the theater. How much more clear could the girl have been? What about her three sentences in a row could be misinterpreted?
Did I mention Michael Madsen's slumming in this thing? He shows up, tries to be menacing, but he's whistling "Whistle While You Work"--yeah, the 7 Dwarfs thing. Is it scary? No. Is it funny in the wrong kind of way? Yeah.
Then he shows up and says to one girl: "We can do this the easy way. We can do this the hard way." And I swear to you I couldn't stop picturing his next words being(in the Fat Bastard accent): "Get in mah belly!"
But you see--these cannibals come, kill one person and then sound a horn, and everyone leaves with their one meal. Why? Because they only want fresh meat. So they will be feet away from another victim, but when they hear the horn, they turn around and leave.
And this is the most ridiculous plan I've ever heard. Why not take them prisoner for one night--save the trouble of looking for them the next night, and maybe getting away.
Perhaps they don't have anywhere they could hold them? you might think. Well, later on they DO take the little girl prisoner and hold her in a nice jail-like cell. So there goes that argument.
Also, these cannibals only hunt at night. They come looking for our protags and I was just wondering--are you kidding? This hospital is like the size of Johns Hopkins and the cannibals don't have flashlights of any kind. Hey, pick a dark room and huddle in the back corner of it. There's no way the ten or so of them could check them all--and without light they would literally have to feel around to see if you were in each one.
I could go on. This movie is so full of ridiculousness that by the end I wasn't the only one scoffing out loud. Of course Viper comes back and saves the day. Of course the main chick who got attached to the little girl(who bears a resemblance to Newt) goes all Sigourney Weaver by the end of the movie.(and in another laughably bad part she paints herself up ala Rambo before she goes to kill the bad guys WHO SHE'S ALREADY INCAPACITATED)
Really, I'm now rethinking my whole view of the Afterdark stuff. Counting last years AD films, I've seen a total of six. Four of them sucked and two were okay. Not good odds.
I have a preview screening of Beowulf in 3D I can see tomorrow, or I can take in Nightmare Man and Mulberry Street. Tough call.
Cool Tidbit
A buddy of mine that works at FYE brought me a present yesterday. It's a 6 FOOT by 6 FOOT cardstock posterboard that all FYE's had hanging up for Halloween. It says FAN FRIGHT FEST across it, and features like 100 movie box covers on it.
There's Halloween, Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th, Scream, The Ring. A lot of big movies.
Why did he bring this to me? Smack dab in the middle of them is my first flick, HH.
No, I can't explain it. There are no other microbudget movies on there. If they were gonna put one of my flicks on there, I'd have bet it would be FOC, since FOC had LGF as a distributor.
HH has a nobody distributor(it's now with a company called Trinity). So I can't explain why they'd put it on there--but it's very cool to be featured on there with some distinguished company.
But I'll be the first to admit that it shouldn't be there amongst those giants...
Horrorfest: 0 For 1
One of the things I love about movies is discovering great writer/directors. There's just something extra cool about finding a M.Night Shyamalan or a Neil Marshall. You figure that whatever they put out is probably going to be pretty good.
Because it's hard to find screenwriters whose movies are always good, just as it's hard to find directors whose movies are always good. I think it's why Spielberg is so popular--he's got that magic touch where he seems to be able to make just about any movie accessible to the mainstream audience.
I hope to be one of those guys--the writer/directors who put out interesting product, so if you like one of my movies then you'll probably like most of them.
With that in mind I went to see Unearthed, one of the Afterdark Horrorfest movies. It's written/directed by the guy who wrote/directed Dead and Breakfast, a pretty original zombie comedy musical. I saw an interview where he talked about Unearthed, a departure into the straight monster movie.
I figured he'd bring something new and fresh to his monster movie. I figured wrong.
The movie has a number of things going against it, but first and foremost is the script. It's just so mediocre that it's hard to believe anyone signed up for it. So many little issues--it seemed like a script that got rushed so they could beat the writer's strike, except that this was written and shot over a year ago.
For instance(and I'll stay pretty spoiler-less): There's a hot, 25 year old sheriff of this desert town. And almost no one mentions how odd this is. But lest they stray too far from stereotype, she has a troubled past and is now a drunk. We're treated to some ridiculous flashbacks to what happened, and they really have no bearing on the story at all.
A truck gets in an accident and blocks the only road out of this town. The sheriff goes to investigate, and as she gets out of her car she pulls out her rifle and takes it with her to look over the wreckage. How many cops do you know that pull out their rifles to investigate car crashes?
She finds an unidentifiable piece of animal at the wreckage, so she takes it to this Indian scientist chick, who's also attractive and young. This girl does some ridiculous test and declares that it's a bonafide unique creature, neither animal or plant. How many cops who find a tiny piece of animal at the scene of a wreckage would take it to a scientist to find out what it was? In the movie it looked a little bit like a lizard tail, so I think most would have assumed that's what it was. And how many plant scientists could tell you that much about a piece of flesh within 24 hours?
Little things like that added up. They're being chased by the creature and are having this discussion about it being an ancient Indian god, and suddenly the Indian scientist chick blurts out that No--because it has DNA from other things inside it, it's obviously an alien organism sent out to our planet to harvest our DNA. She's not kidding, and if she's right(they never tell you) then there's NO WAY she could have come up with this given what she knew.
So, ignoring the script, the next problem is the cinematography. This movie is DARK. Crazy dark and shot in crazy closeups during the action, so you have no idea what's going on. I kid you not, there were 30 second increments where I couldn't tell what was going on.
The creature: 1 part Pumpkinhead, 1 part Relic creature, and 2 parts Alien. At times it looked very cool. Some CGI was nice, others were laughably bad. On a big-budget movie like Spider-man you'd assume different FX houses did different scenes, but I'm sure the same house did all of them for this flick so I have no idea why some of the scenes are terrible, while some are decent.
Acting was so so, but it's a case of Episode I. Hard to tell if the actors are crappy or if the script is so bad it's making them look that way.
Anyway, hope to catch a couple of other movies. Fingers crossed they're better than last year's crop.

Things You Didn't Know About Autistic Kids 1
Imagine you see someone pick up some food and try a bite. They immediately gag like they're going to puke.
You probably figure the food is bad or something, or at the very least that they don't like it.
If that person is autistic, you'd be wrong.
We first noticed it a long time ago. First place it happened was Chik-Fil-A. The kid would try to eat his chicken and he'd gag. So I'd tell my wife, "He doesn't like it."
But he'd continue to try to eat it anyway. At first I figured--that's dedication. As it turns out, he does like it. But there are certain textures of food that will make him gag even though he likes the taste, and Chik-Fil-A chicken is one of them. McDonald's chicken won't do it. Wendy's chicken sometimes does it.
Anyway, just thought ya might like to know. We've now got the kid on a weird diet I'll tell ya about later. By the time I'm done with you you'll be more sick of autism than I am...*
*actually, that's impossible.
Halloween day came around when my wife woke me at 2pm to tell me that she was going to the emergency room.
The previous day she hadn't felt good and pretty much slept the day away. Got up for about a half hour, but went right back to bed. Her stomach.
So she tells me she's going to get her mom to take her to the emergency room and I should watch the kid. She leaves.
After I get my act together I figure I'll throw Logan's costume on and take some pictures for her so she wouldn't miss that. Logan's game for it, so here ya go:
Anyway, I took the kid up to the hospital a couple of hours later and find out I missed my wife checking out by fifteen minutes. We catch up to her back at the house. The doctors say they think it's a kidney stone; they give her lots of good pain medication.
A quick note on Halloween:
-I know this isn't charitable and all that, but I am so tired of people bringing their effing kids to my neighborhood to collect candy WHEN THEY DON'T LIVE HERE. WTF is that? Vans will pull up, a bunch of kids pile out, and they'll hit the houses, then back into the van to drive to another street.
Hey, if your neighbohood doesn't have trick or treating, move to another neighborhood. Don't come begging at my door. Have some pride.
Anyway, days later and the wife seems to be getting better.


Three films – 'KUNDO : Age of the Rampant', 'Roaring Currents', 'The Pirates' – opened simultaneously this summer. They are all blockbuster and historical films. The winner was 'Roaring Currents'. The film has rewritten Korean box office history with a score of 17-million audience mark. It is neither large-scale battle scenes nor great film. So why are the public crazy about 'ROARING CURRENTS'?
The film is focusing Admiral Yi Sunshin instead of attractive event, which is Battle of Myeongnyang. In addition, the admiral was as far as image of hero we know. The admiral in the film looked so tired and old. What director Kim Han-min show to audience is miserable admiral Yi Sunshin, who was betrayed by King Sunjo and lost everything he had.
At Great Battle of Hansan 1592 Admiral Yi Sunshin mopped the ground with Japanese naval forces. But what is left now is only 12 ships. His inferiors demanded measures and press him. Admiral Yi Sunshin wasn't portrayed as the genius of the thinker. 330 ships VS 12 ships. It is cannot help defeating. Nevertheless he didn't abandon the territory and people.
Admiral Yi Sunshin is said to be careful and perfect so far. Director Kim Han-min focused on his another character. He had to defend against an enemy attack to save Choson Dynasty's capital Hansung. It is worth attempting even though they were mown down. He did not rely on chance and was also very effective in his role. The audience were enamored of such a his nature.
A few months ago, there was great sadness in Korean. The whole country watched a live broadcast of the catastrophe, which is children were immured in ferry ship, they were dying. Many people are still in a state of shock. Why did captain run away? Why couldn't the maritime police save none of the passenger? I don't know why the President didn't know that the children were trapped in the ship for seven hours.
Of course, man change in special circumstances. We couldn't do anything about that. Even though we want someone comply with the duty for all human beings as ever. No wonder what the public crazy about Admiral Yi Sunshin.
이번 여름 < 군도>, < 명량>, < 해적> 규모가 큰 사극 영화 세 개가 개봉했다. 승자는 명량이었다. 관객수 1천 700만이라는 화려한 점수로 역대 한국영화 흥행1위를 차지했다. 웅장한 스케일을 자랑하는 전쟁영화도, 그렇다고 내용이 아주 훌륭한 영화도 아닌데. 대중들은 왜 명량에 열광했을까?
영화는 명량해전이란 매력적인 사건 대신에 이순신이라는 개인에 초점을 맞추고 있다. 게다가 그 이순신마저 영웅의 모습과는 사뭇 거리가 있었다. 스크린에서 본 이순신은 피곤하고 늙어 보였다. 김한민 감독이 관객에게 보여준 것은 선조에게 배신당하고 모든 것을 잃은 후의 초라한 이순신이었다.
1592년 한산대첩에서 왜군을 크게 무찔렀던 그에게 이제 남은 것은 배12척이 전부다. 부하장수들이 대책을 요구하며 그를 압박했다. 이순신은 천재적인 지략가로 묘사되지 않았다. 배 330척 대 12척. 질 수밖에 없는 전쟁이었다. 그럼에도 불구하고 그는 영토와 국민을 포기 하지 않았다.
그동안 이순신은 한치의 흐트러짐 없이 꼼꼼하고 완벽한 인물로 알려져 왔다. 김한민 감독은 그의 다른 성품에 초점을 맞춘다. 조선의 수도 한성을 지키기 위해서는 왜군을 막아야했다. 비록 자신과 남은 부하가 전멸해서라도 해볼 가치가 있었다. 그는 요행을 바라지 않고 자신의 역할에 충실했다. 관객들은 이런 그의 천품에 반했다.
몇 달 전 한국에서는 커다란 슬픔이 있었다. 전국민이 아이들이 배에 갇힌 채 천천히 죽어가는 참사를 TV 생중계로 보았다. 많은 사람들이 그 충격에서 벗어나지 못하고 있다. 왜 선장은 도망갔을까? 왜 해경들은 한 명도 구조하지 못했을까? 왜 7시간 동안 대통령은 아이들이 배에 갇혀있는 걸 몰랐는지 모르겠다.
물론 인간은 특수한 상황에서 변한다. 어쩔 수 없는 일이다. 그럼에도 불구하고 우리는 인간의 도리를 변함없이 지키는 사람을 원한다. 대중이 이순신에 열광한 것은 너무나 당연하지 않은가?

My coworker had a surprise for me yesterday: more Pyrex dishes! She already gave me one dish with a taco dip in it and now she's given me two more! These are turquoise and white butterprint cinderella, bake serve and store dishes. I will be posting the photo to The Pyrex Love flickr group and thinking of what I can make in them!
I have my mom's Daisy mixing bowls, which I need to photograph to add into my altered book (recipes) because I am including food-related memories and before she had a Kitchen-Aid mixer, we used her cheery Daisy bowl to mix up chocolate chip cookies. good memories!
Old school Pyrex. Love it! So nostalgic. I immediately think of family gatherings in 1974!
I absolutely LOVE old Pyrex! Makes me want to go thrift store shopping..

Why I Changed My Mind About the Grand Seiko Spring Drive 9R02
The Micro Artist Studio one ups itself.
Su Jiaxian (SJX)
Baselworld 2019,
Grand Seiko,
Share Facebook Twitter Pinterest Weibo Mail Instagram
When I first got word of the recently launched, top of the line Grand Seiko Elegance Collection, specifically the Spring Drive 20th anniversary models SBGZ001 and SBGZ003,I was slightly disappointed.
Not because of anything intrinsic to the two watches, both powered by the new 9R02 movement, but because both are new products from the venerable Micro Artist Studio.
Two more models, in addition to the striking watches, Eichi II, and Grand Seiko 8 Days that are already in the catalogues, instinctively felt like too much for the tiny artisanal workshop, diluting the refined provenance.
But I was wrong. The new 9R02 movement is a masterful calibre, and a striking improvement over the movement it is based on, in terms of construction, decoration and design. It's likely the best-finished movement to emerge from the Micro Artist Studio.
Although the 9R02 was the flagship launch at Baselworld, and rightly so, there was only a single example of the movement inside a watch at Seiko's stand. All the prototype watches shown contained only paper facsimiles of the movement.
But I absolutely had to see the watch and thanks to the heroic efforts of the intrepid Ms Naruse of Seiko I got my hands on the one specimen available.
(The additions to the Grand Seiko Elegance Collection, also known as the "thin dress series", actually consists of four models, but only the two models in platinum feature the 9R02, which is the movement a serious watch geek should know. The other two watches in the collection, in gold and steel respectively, and both powered by the 9R31 movement, will be covered later in the year.)
The boring technical bit
The 9R02 is derived from the 7R14 movement found in the Credor Eichi II, explaining the obvious similarity in layout and features.
But having been conceived to mark the 20thanniversary of Spring Drive, Seiko's proprietary mechanical movement with an electronically controlled regulator, the 9R02 has been upgraded substantially, most notably with a longer power reserve of 84 hours, compared to just 60 in the 7R14 of the Eichi II.
That was accomplished with two features. One is the pair of stacked mainsprings within a single barrel, both operating in parallel. Compared to a similar Spring Drive movement with a standard mainspring, the twin stacked springs lengthen the power reserve by about 50%.
The other is an improved Torque Return System, originally devised for the Credor Eichi I. Essentially a recycling mechanism for the energy that powers the watch, the system uses excess energy from the mainspring to rewind itself, giving the watch an extra 14 hours or so of power reserve.
According to Seiko, about a third of the energy output from the fully wound mainspring is excess, meaning the watch can operate perfectly on just 70% of the energy.
The extra energy is instead recycled into rewinding the mainspring and thus extending the power reserve. The Torque Return System operates for the first 48 hours of the power reserve, after which the energy in the mainspring falls to a level where there is no more excess.
And artisanal finishing
The finishing of the 9R02 has been significantly improved over that in the Eichi II. Given that the 7R14 in the Eichi II is already a remarkably well-finished watch, one of the best in current production in fact, that is quite a remarkable achievement.
The most obvious improvement is a decorative flourish of the sort used by the very best watchmakers just to show off: the sharply defined and sensuously curved inward angle on the edge of the bridge, in between the two jewels for the Spring Drive glide wheel.
With that the 9R02 eliminates the only weakness of the Eichi II's 7R14 movement, its lack of a sharp, inward angle on the bevelled edges of its bridges.
Other improvements in the 9R02 are less pronounced but contribute to a slightly more elaborate looking movement. That includes broader edge bevelling on the bridges, as well as noticeably wider polished countersinks for the jewels and screws.
A new addition I do not particularly like is the solid gold plate engraved "Micro Artist Studio" that's screwed onto the left bridge; owners also have the options of replacing the engraving with their name or initials.
No doubt inspired by the same on Philippe Dufour's Simplicity, the plate feels unnecessarily showy.
Other changes are purely cosmetic, most prominent being the blue lacquer filling of the engraving, replacing the gold fill on the Eichi II.
Only Elegance Collection models are equipped with the 9R02 movement. Both have the same platinum case that is compact and slim – 38.5mm in diameter and 9.5mm wide.
The case is smaller and thinner than the Eichi II that's 39mm and 10.3mm, but because of the proportions of width relative to height the new Grand Seiko feels slightly elegant. It has short and somewhat stubby lugs, while the smaller case diameter means the thinness is less obvious.
The more elaborate of the two – actually the most elaborate time-only Seiko watch – is the SBGZ001, a 30-piece limited edition with the case and dial engraved with a "snowflake" pattern.
Meant to evoke the snow that blankets the area where the Micro Artist Studio is located, the motif is engraved on the case and dial by machine, albeit guided by hand. It is not a hammered finish, although it does resemble such a surface at a distance.
The SBGZ001 has its hour markers and hands executed in the typical Grand Seiko style, which means diamond-cut, razor-sharp edges and mirror-polished surfaces. But unlike ordinary Grand Seiko watches the hour markers and hands are in 14k solid white gold.
Notably the Grand Seiko logo and markings on the dial are engraved (by machine, explaining the clean edges of the engraving), a feature reserved for limited edition Grand Seiko models. And the tiny star above six o'clock is the Grand Seiko "SD" emblem, short for "special dial".
The second model is the SBGZ003 that's essentially the same as the "snowflake" limited edition, right down to the white gold hands and markers, but without the engraved decoration on the dial and case.
The SBGZ001 (left) and SBGZ003
Consequently it is significantly less expensive – by about US$18,000 in fact – and is also regular production.
That makes the SBGZ003 significantly better value than its engraved counterpart, which is special but markedly expensive.
Using another benchmark, the SBGZ003 is about US$3000 more expensive than the platinum Credor Eichi II, fair given the superior movement finish.
The SBGZ001 is limited to 30 watches, priced at 8m Japanese yen, or about US$73,000.
The SBGZ003 is part of the regular collection, and has a price of 6m yen, equivalent to US$55,000.
Both prices exclude taxes. The watches will be available starting July 2019.
Correction May 12, 2019: The prices in yen are 8m and 6m respectively, not 80m and 60m in an earlier version of the article.

The Defense Satellite Communications System is a United States Space Force satellite constellation that gives the United States with navy communications to help globally distributed military users. Beginning in 2007, DSCS is being changed by the Wideband Global SATCOM system. A whole of 14 DSCS-III satellites had been launched between the early Nineteen Eighties and 2003. Two satellites had been launched aboard the Space Shuttle Atlantis in 1985 during the STS-fifty one-J flight. As of 14 September 2021, six DSCS-III satellites have been still operational. DSCS operations are at present run by the 4th Space Operations Squadron out of Schriever Space Force Base.

The receiver additionally with the help of an antenna receives the sign. In this mode of communication gentle travels by way of the optical fibre. As the name itself suggests, optical communication system is dependent upon light because the medium for communication. In an optical communication system the transmitter converts the knowledge into an optical signal and finally the sign then reaches the recipient. In optical communication system, light helps in the transmission of information. The secure touchdown of helicopters and aeroplanes work on the above principle. The pilots obtain light signals from the bottom and resolve their subsequent movements.
As of 2016, the MoD publicised plans to replace Bowman with a system named Morpheus. There is an average of 8 WiFi networked units per person at present.
