Orlando Bloom and Cara Delevigne star in Amazon Prime's new show, Carnival Row.
Review: Carnival Row is stuck in the fantasy ghetto mud
Sam Brooks | Culture Editor
Sam Brooks reviews Carnival Row, an Amazon Original which can't break free from its own shallow edginess.
The fantasy ghetto is real, and it's hard to get out of it. Game of Thrones managed to get out of it through the sheer quality of the first season, and also by keeping its more fantastical elements cleverly buried until audiences were already invested in the world. Lord of the Rings, the books, managed to get out of it by being, well, one of the first series to do it, and the films got out of it due to the sheer prestige of those novels. But for most, it's an uphill battle, especially for a television show. Remember The Shannara Chronicles? Van Helsing? Wynonna Earp?
In that sense, Amazon Prime's Carnival Row has an uphill battle. But there's another, more, unexpected challenge. Carnival Row isn't based on a pre-existing source (although it is based on an unproduced screenplay which absolutely does not count, sorry). From a commercial perspective, using existing IP has a huge upside – there's an in-built audience who will watch your thing. Those people might be very sensitive about it, and any changes made to it, but they'll show up.
But even more importantly, a completely new work doesn't have a wealth of lore to draw on. There's no bible, no predetermined narrative, no list of players – all of which are undeniable assets when you're trying to build a world, especially a world that involves magic, myths and legends, one that requires real rules so an audience knows where the boundaries are. Carnival Row has to make it up from scratch, and oh my lord, does it ever botch it right from the get-go.
Cara Delevigne in Carnival Row.
The premise is a mish-mash of influences and inspirations, from Neil Gaiman (if we're being charitable) to Mortal Engines (the novels not the film). It's set in an Victorian-ish era, when mythical beings like fairies and satyrs (Faefolk, sigh) wander amongst us. Humans have invaded their world to exploit their resources, and now these creatures form an underclass of servants and refugees who are discriminated against on their own invaded land.
Enter our two leads. Cara Delevigne, full of attitude if not emotion, plays Vignette Stonemoss (sigh), a fairy who gets shipwrecked in Burgue and plays servant to Imogen Spurnrose (siggggh), a wealthy woman who is, of course, prejudiced against the Faefolk. Orlando Bloom, channeling Johnny Depp at his most Sleepy Hollow, plays Rycroft 'Philo' Philostrate (you can just take my sighs as a given from now on) who is hunting a serial killer who is specifically targetting Faefolk. If it reminds you of Jack the Ripper, that's because Carnival Row desperately wants it to. Subtlety is not in this show's playbook.
From the premise, you can gather more or less everything you need to know about the series. Firstly, it plays around with allegory, rather than engages with it. Words like 'immigration' and 'refugees' are thrown around while winking towards the audience, because it's just like our world, you know? Unfortunately, any analysis stops after 'people are racist against immigrants', and the Faefolk end up being yet another awkward attempt by fantasy to engage with racism and classism. Like countless imagined worlds before it, Carnival Row never reconciles the fact that comparing other species to people of colour is not actually addressing the problem of racism, but reinforcing it.
Secondly, Carnival Row is as self-important as a pre-Vatican II mass. Scenes sag under the weight of whatever message or feeling it is trying to impart, and the hours drag as a result. Worse, it mistakes this self-importance for maturity. Every dead body is lavished over by the camera like it's a landscape, every swear is relished by the actors like they've just come off ten years on a kid's show, and every mumble to camera is treated like it's Proust. It's exhausting, and it leaves the entire endeavour feeling flat, and dark. (Which is to say nothing of the literal darkness of the show, which makes for a sleepy viewing experience altogether.)
Orlando Bloom stars in Carnival Row.
Both allegory and self-importance are fine if you've got enough depth to support it. Game of Thrones did both because it had some seriously impressive writing, acting and production behind it. You're going to accept that silly shot of the dragon's wings flaring behind Daenerys because you've had eight seasons of setting her up as a complex character with layered, conflicting motivations. But I'm absolutely not going to accept a sickeningly exploitative shot of people washing up onshore after a shipwreck that is lifted directly from the coverage of Syrian refugees washing up on the shore of the Mediterranean Sea. No show earns that 15 minutes into the pilot, especially not this one.
Despite all this, Carnival Row has been renewed for a second season, even before the first premieres. If you're looking for your Game of Thrones fix, might I suggest the novels, or any one of the many prequels set to debut in the coming years? If you're looking for a fantasy fix, might I suggest some other artform, like video games or maybe a book? But if you're in the market for some dark fantasy with about as much depth as it has colour, then sit back for eight episodes of Carnival Row. Be careful not to play in the muck too long though, you'll get dirty.
You can watch Carnival Row on Amazon Prime.

Q: d3.js strange graph display I'm trying to run a program which displays a graph based on a json file. But the graph is weird, I don't know why. Any ideas how to fix it ? thanks
here is my code :

redpajama_set_name: RedPajamaStackExchange


(Portland, Oregon) – Warning: this does contain many spoilers. Tonight, NBC's smash hit series The Office said goodbye, with a megalithic, non-stop flood of laughs, tears and twists and turns.
Did it live up to its own legacy of constantly and carefully-crafted gags, heart-string tugs and pranks? Quite likely. While it had plenty of faults, including the expected sappy-overkill, somehow the whole thing worked.
I'm sure not everyone will agree, but personally I was blown away.
Starting with the retrospective that aired here in Portland, Oregon at 8 p.m., this alone was a tearjerker and surprise fest. Plenty of fascinating insights into the show's production were offered, like how all those piercing looks towards to the camera are so very scripted and planned out. Those poignant analysis from the actors on their own characters were both a hoot and a sniffle-inducer. How Pam and Jim had such a remarkable chemistry as actors, and how Jim and Dwight also shared some unique connections in that department, as well as their talents for improv together.
Lots of tidbits from creator Ricky Gervais were particularly uplifting, and U.S. producer Greg Daniels made some moving and absorbing commentaries on various aspects of the show.
The finale itself started off a bit rocky and puzzling. But like a good puzzle, eventually the pieces all fit. A kind of disjointed scenario emerged at first, even downright disappointing in spots. I admit I didn't laugh very hard for a while. Dwight's powermad hold over the office seemed uber-silly, the firing of Keven and Toby just didn't feel right (even though Kevin was fired via a message on a cake), and somehow Jim and Dwight's new palling around still felt unnatural.
But as the crew started reuniting for the documentary event, and the talking head segments began, so did the laughs and the teary moments.
The downsides were aplenty, yet somehow these seemed to resolve themselves and all makes sense in the end.
The bachelor party seemed too preposterous in many spots, but that became a necessary setup for one of the best segments (involving Kevin). It's easy to say there wasn't nearly enough Michael Scott, and that still kind of bites. But after it all ended, that tiny dose (he had only one line) fit perfectly.
Much of Andy's storylines seem a bit off the wall and meandering, and I personally haven't found him that funny since he punched a hole in the wall in season 2. His rather sad flirtations with stardom just left me wishing they'd spent more time on others.
All the schmaltz was a bit overwhelming, yet in the end it was justified. Unlike the excessively, sickeningly sweet end to That 70's Show, these super-sugary moments verged on making you ill but inserted enough real poignancy or laughs to make it work. Erin finding her real parents started to get too much but was saved. All the "awww" inducing moments of Jim and Pam were a tad too much, but ultimately you could forgive them.
Michael Scott appearing for the first time (I cheered aloud). Kevin's mini-storyline and his reconciliation with Dwight. Creed's suddenly lucid and and provocative speech about the human condition – just before he gets carted off by police. You also discover some trippy and hilarious things about his past, including the fact he was in the 60's band The Grass Roots (which, interestingly enough, he was in real life).
Oscar is entering politics, Nellie snagged a baby in a most unusual and hilarious manner, Kelly and Ryan find each other again in a touching and funny way, and of course the ultimate path taken by Jim and Pam when they abruptly sell the house all kind of made you cheer. Another powerful and moving moment – which also cracked you up – was Phyllis receiving the wood carving of her from Stanley.
Pam had several mind-blowing little interviews, but the most powerful one was in the last 15 minutes where she waxed philosophically about she watched herself with frustration in the documentary, wanting to yell at herself to "move on." Her talk, a few from Jim, and ironically Creed's were probably the most emotional chats of the night.
Ultimately, that's what made it all work, and even its faulty segments helped tie the whole thing up into a marvelously funny and touching ball that was complete. Likely among the best finales of all time (right up there with MASH and Battlestar Galactica's end in my book), this one took what threatened to not work and pieced it into a powerfully moving and exceptionally funny send-off.
It's probably correct to say The Office hasn't been its truly wonderful self in the last two years, maybe even since Michael Scott's final year. So this was definitely going out on a high note.
As Michael Scott MIGHT'VE said: This was a long, hard road – but with a happy ending. Mmm... that's what she said!

Former Texas House Speaker Joe Straus Forms New PAC
AUSTIN -- Former Texas House Speaker Joe Straus, who walked away from politics in 2017, has formed a new political action committee to "promote a thoughtful, conservative approach to governing," he announced in a statement Wednesday. "We are launching this effort because I believe Texas needs leaders who are forward-looking and dedicated to bringing creative, problem-solving ideas to the new challenges our state faces as our population rapidly grows," Straus said. "It's time to unite Texas in civic participation and ensure our next decades are the very best in our long, proud history."  Continue reading...


This (via digby) is probably the most inteligent debate I've ever seen on cable television. Thank you Chris Hayes.
It's long, but watch this clip if you want to understand the challenges we face dealing with the Obama Administration over the next two years.

Don Cheadle Is Joining LeBron James' Space Jam 2 Film
By Z-rowe July 12, 2019 July 12, 2019 Industry News
If you haven't heard, Space Jam 2 is currently in production. LeBron James could be out there right now filming a scene for the movie.
We still don't which NBA stars will have cameos in the film, but we do know Don Cheadle has joined the cast. We do not know what his character will be, but it's possible he could be a coach? Who knows.
Terence Nance is directing this follow-up to the 1996 Space Jam film, which starred Michael Jordan. The first Space Jam movie made a respectable $230 million worldwide.
Not much is known about this sequel, but we do know the planned release date is July 16, 2021. It's strange that they're filming now, but it won't be released until 2021. I suppose it's because they have a lot of animation work to do in addition to the live-action shoots.
We'll keep you posted as more information is released. In the meantime, you can catch Cheadle on the Showtime series, Black Monday, which just got renewed for a second season.

LeBron James Confirms 'Space Jam 2' Will Begin Filming This Summer
By Z-rowe February 22, 2019 February 22, 2019 Industry News
LeBron got the kids in Charlotte excited about Space Jam 2, which starts filming this summer pic.twitter.com/qqJwCNy1b8
— The Crossover (@TheCrossover) February 16, 2019
During an interview at All Star Weekend, LeBron James revealed that production on the sequel to Michael Jordan's 1996 'Space Jam' film will start this summer.
In addition to playing the leading role, James will executive produce as well.
The original film featured Jordan as he teamed up with the Looney Tunes to take on the wicked Monstars in a game of basketball. Although the film wasn't cited as an acclaimed cinema release, its notoriety has been immortalized thanks to Jordan's infamy and the endless entertainment that the Warner Bros. characters bring to the big screen.
Ryan Coogler will produce this sequel and Terence Nance is expected to direct. It looks like it'll be Nance's second feature film. His last feature, An Oversimplification of Her Beauty was a pretty unique film that scored well with the critics. The semi-animated comedy/drama won the 2012 Gotham Award for "Best Film Not Playing at a Theater Near You"
Safe to say he won't be winning the same award for Space Jam 2, as it is expected to hit theaters nationwide July 16, 2021.

LeBron James' 'Space Jam 2' Will Film In California, Details Inside!
By Z-rowe November 19, 2018 November 19, 2018 Industry News
LeBron James has gone Hollywood in more ways than one. Not only is he playing for the Los Angeles Lakers, but he's also set to star in a Hollywood feature film.
As most of you know, James is teaming up with Ryan Coogler for Space Jam 2. Production on the film is scheduled to begin in Summer 2019, and now we know it'll be filmed in California.
"The upcoming sequel is one of 15 film projects that have been selected for the state's Film & TV Tax Credit Program 2.0. Space Jam 2 received the largest conditional allocation with a $21.8 million tax credit. 'Mouse Guard' scored the second-biggest cut ($10.2 million) of the new $73.3 million available in tax credits."
Damn. That's a big a** tax credit. I understand why they didn't film on Mars now. /dad joke.
Anyway, we're really looking forward to this sequel. James is a legit funny dude, so he should knock this role out of the park. No word on who will be joining him in the movie, but we will keep you posted as more information is released.
For now, enjoy LeBron James schoolin' people on the basketball court…

'Space Jam 2' Is Going To Happen With LeBron James Set To Star
By Z-rowe September 20, 2018 September 20, 2018 Industry News
Just when you thought every movie from the '80s and '90s had been remade or sequel'd, Hollywood surprises us once again!
It was reported earlier this week that a 'Space Jam 2' will happen and it'll star LeBron James as "small forward" and Bugs Bunny as his "point guard."
The original Space Jam was released back in 1996 and starred NBA legend Michael Jordan. Terence Nance will direct this follow-up film, and Black Panther's Ryan Coogler will produce the project.
James talked about the exciting news to The Hollywood Reporter:
"The Space Jam collaboration is so much more than just me and the Looney Tunes getting together and doing this movie. It's so much bigger. I'd just love for kids to understand how empowered they can feel and how empowered they can be if they don't just give up on their dreams. And I think Ryan did that for a lot of people."
Production is expected to start during the 2019 NBA off-season, and according to the image you see at the top of the page, the scheduled release date is January 23, 2021.
We will keep you posted.

Movie Review: Trainwreck (2015) – A Rom-com Without Sap; I Didn't Think It Was Possible
By admin July 26, 2015 July 26, 2015 4.5 Star Reviews, Movie Reviews, Off Topic
There is a reason that I hate most romantic comedies. It's not because of the lack of realism in the plot. I can pretty much enjoy anything that requires a leap of the imagination. Nope, it's because there's never a character I can identify with. The girl is always this Type A, high strung ball breaking business women who never had time to settle down because of her career.
Note to movie writers, some of us aren't in relationships and it has nothing to do with our careers. Some of us are just incredibly immature bed hopping binge drinkers. I can't identify with some Type A nutjob. That's why I don't like romantic comedies and that's why I loved Trainwreck. Finally, there is a character that represents us. For the first time, I didn't just like a romantic comedy. I loved a romantic comedy. For that, I thank Amy Schumer.
Trainwreck starts out with young Amy learning all about the dangers of monogamy from her father, who explains it by asking Amy "What if I told you this was the only doll you could ever play with for the rest of your life?" Drilled that monogamy is a bad thing, Amy lives on one night stands and drunken benders. That is until she meets a cute, almost virginal doctor in the course of her job as a magazine writer. Then starts Amy trying to grow up and settle down.
It's a paint by numbers rom-com but what made it shine is the edge. That edge comes in the form of Amy Schumer and some seriously biting sarcasm and humor. There are so many laugh out loud moments. They're able to keep it rude without going too crude, and it sucks any overly sappy sweetness right out of the movie.
A rom-com without sap. I didn't think it was possible. I think it probably has something to do with some of the most flawless casting I've ever seen.
Colin Quinn was a stroke of genius as the belligerent, commitment probe dad. While I have never once thought of Bill Hader as a romantic lead, it this movie he just plain shines. While some thought the movie was too cameo heavy, I found that they managed to fit in the cameos pretty seamlessly.
Especially the movie long cameo for LeBron James. He plays Hader's best friend and he's pretty good. A lot of that was smart writing. They knew to not give James more than he could handle, and he handled it well. You never forget he's LeBron James, but I imagine that's probably what being LeBron James's best friend is like anyway.
But the big star in this one is Amy Schumer. She is just plain fantastic in this movie and I think it might be her breakthrough. This girl is about to go from being a cable cult following, to a big name star. They didn't change her up too much from her personality on "Inside Amy Schumer" but it still worked for a romantic comedy.
Trainwreck was very well written and even better cast. If you like Amy Schumer, and even if you hate romantic comedies, this one is worth the watch.
WE GIVE IT: 4.5 STARS!

First Red Band Trailer For Judd Apatow's 'Trainwreck' — Does LeBron James Steal The Show?
By Z-rowe February 12, 2015 February 12, 2015 Industry News, Movie Trailers
When LeBron James gets tired of making everyone look silly on the basketball court, he may have a second career as a comedic actor. Judd Apatow, director of the upcoming comedy Trainwreck, claims Mr. James has got some serious skills.
The Hollywood Reporter talked with the director about LeBron's guest starring role in the film. Here is what he had to say…
"We tested the movie, and he gets laughter as big as anyone. LeBron is a very strong actor, and he has a fantastic sense of humor. We do a lot of improvisation, and he was really good at it. As a result, it's a really fun, wild, slightly strange performance that really scores."
And that's saying something because the hilarious Bill Hader and Amy Schumer star in the movie. As mentioned above, Judd Apatow is the director behind this film, and it's interesting he decided to take on this monster. Typically, Apatow only directs films he helped write. This movie only has one person receiving credit for the script, and that person is Amy Schumer.
Universal Pictures just released the first trailer for the film, which is scheduled to be released July 17, 2015. The premise of Trainwreck is similar to several romantic comedies out there, except the gender roles seem to be reversed in this movie. In most romantic comedies, it's the sex-crazed man falling in love with that special girl who makes him change his douchebag ways.
In Trainwreck, Amy Schumer shows that girls can be just as afraid of commitment. Check out the trailer down below. We'll definitely be checking this one out.

Q: Capybara::Poltergeist::InvalidSelector on element with id and class I have code like this:

  +

And I want to click on the + link. The resulting form is opened with javascript, so I need Poltergeist to click on it. But it returns an error:
Capybara::Poltergeist::InvalidSelector:
       The browser raised a syntax error while trying to evaluate css selector ".activities#28"

This is my test:
it "can open form", js: true do
  within(".activities#28") do
    click_link "+"
  end
end

So why it can't find the element?

A: You have a few issues here

*

*Your CSS selector ".activities#28" is technically illegal.  This is because an id identifier in a CSS selector cannot start with a digit unless it is escaped.  To fix that your CSS selector would need to become .activities#\32 8

*Once fixed it won't match the HTML you've shown, because the HTML shown has an id of "3" not "28"

*Your HTML shown has two elements with the same id ("3").  That's illegal HTML since ids are required to be unique on the page.  Are you trying to store an id of a record that needs to be tied to that element on the page?  If so it could be in a data attribute instead (which would change your CSS selector too) - although storing the same multiple times doesn't make a lot of sense either.

A certificate of good standing (also known as a certificate of existence or certificate of authorization) is a document issued by a state official as conclusive evidence that a corporation or LLC is in existence or authorized to transact business in the state, and that the company is in compliance with all state-required formalities.
The Certificate of Good Standing generally sets forth the corporation's or LLC's name; that it is duly incorporated or organized and authorized to transact business in that state; that all fees, taxes and/or any applicable penalties owed the state have been paid; that the company's most recent annual report has been filed; and that articles of dissolution for the company have not been filed.
At your request Accumera will obtain this document for you and email and ship the original to you. The good standing is normally required to file applications for certificates of authority into another state as it is proof that the company is active.

Town's post office on the
STAFF jobs will be safeguarded with the imminent closure of the post office in Widnes following the sale of the Windmill shopping centre, which could spell chaos for customers over coming weeks.
People who have relied on the branch at the Windmill Centre for the past six years for everything from buying road tax to arranging passport applications, will have to take their business elsewhere for at least the next five weeks, until a new central post office can be established.
Number 3 Widnes Road is earmarked for the new premises but it will not open until the end of February.
The move effectively means that the main post office is to return to the location it occupied before it moved to the Windmill Centre.
The relocation comes in the wake of the sale of the Windmill shopping centre by its current owner the Co-op.
Mark Craig, the Co-op's general manager for co-operative affairs, told the Weekly News that the company had been forced into the sale by increasing competition from nearby supermarkets and the prospect of having a giant Asda store in Simms Cross, right on the doorstep of its Windmill Centre foodstore which is being closed down.
A Post Office spokesman said its main branch staff would be relocated to sub-post offices across the area.
She said: 'We have a general policy of redeployment of staff in these situations and we don't anticipate that there will be any compulsory redundancies.
'If necessary we will also arrange for extra staff to help any branch to cope with the extra business caused by the temporary closure of Widnes Post Office and some staff will be located at 8 Cronton Lane, Widnes.
'They will be redeployed until such time that the new post office opens. Then, if they wish, there will be a job for them at the new office.'
Mike Wakley, retail line manager for Widnes central post office, said: 'We apologise to customers for the inconvenience this unforseen closure will undoubtedly cause.
'I can assure customers that we will be doing all we can to reopen this post office at the new location as soon as possible but at this stage we cannot give a definite date.'
A post office customer, who asked not be named, said: 'My wife's mum is getting on a bit and you can imagine the difficulties she is going to have.
'If you want to get your benefits it is handy to be able to get them from town.
'But this will be a major pain and it will be even worse for pensioners and the disabled.
'It has also created a security problem because pensioners will have to travel to sub-post offices to collect their pensions.
'The closure has come as a surprise because I spoke to the staff behind the counter in December to ask when they were going to shut and they said 'we should be fine'.'
In November, the Weekly News re -vealed that the Co-op foodstore would be closed following the sale to a company which has not yet been named.
The Co-op had taken steps to relocate as many of the 70 staff to other nearby outlets.
Mark Craig of the Coop said: 'It is a sad fact that the trading performance of the store had been deteriorating for some time and that the situation will be exacerbated by the arrival of Asda.'
Meanwhile, the Windmill Centre branch of Co-op Travel Care announced that it will definitely be staying put, and said that the store is earmarked for a major revamp later this year.
The Post Office is now reminding customers of the locations of the remaining 10 branches across the Widnes area which can supply many of the services required by customers. However, during the temporary period from January 22 until the new office opens, customers will be able to obtain road tax from the Black Horse Post Office which is located at 8 Cronton Lane, Widnes.
The branches are: Halton View Post Office, Albert Road Post Office, Hale Road Post Office, Appleton Village Post Office, West Bank Post Office, Farn-worth Post Office and the Black Horse Post Office.

I'll admit that I'm not totally impartial in my selection of It's About Time as this month's Pick Hit. Carol Fran and Clarence Hollimon have been very good friends of the Phoenix Blues Society for many years, and we were all devastated at Hollimon's untimely death just a few weeks before this album was released in May. But our relationship with Fran and Hollimon doesn't take away the fact that It's About Time is one of the best blues releases of the year.
Producer Jimmy Morello, who has overseen quite a few good recordings for JSP, assembled a top notch backing band, wrote and arranged all of the material, and extracted superb performances from both Fran and Hollimon. The 11 cuts on It's About Time are all extremely satisfying, and will leave you wanting to hear more.
Fran was not feeling well during the recording session, and appears on only four of the cuts. That left more of a burden on Hollimon, who responded by putting his heart and soul into these recordings. It's About Time is a fitting tribute to this vastly underrated by influential musician. Every aspiring blues guitarist should get this album immediately and listen to it daily.
The CD opens with a fine vocal number from Fran, the mid-tempo shuffle "Texas Home," on which her booming voice gets a little earthier than usual. During their 17-year partnership (and marriage), Fran's vocals and Hollimon's guitar work have fit together like a hand in a glove. His guitar work fills in beautifully around the vocal parts on this and many other songs on It's About Time.
Hollimon's Texas roots come out on the the first of four instrumentals, "Jumpin' With The Gristle," as his T-Bone Walker-style guitar fronts the tight horn section of Jonny Viau and Troy Jennings. An even stronger instrumental is another horn-dominated number, "Herky Jerky," as Hollimon leads the band with more fine guitar work.
Fran hails originally from Louisiana, and "Put The Blame On Me," has a heavy New Orleans flavor. Tom Mahon contributes the requisite piano, while Jennings' baritone sax solo is reminiscent of the late Lee Allen's best work on the classic early Fats Domino recordings.
Hollimon seldom stepped up to the microphone during his career, preferring to focus on playing guitar behind other singers. But his few vocal performances are to be treasured, and on this album he does a nice job on the mid-tempo Jimmy Reed-style blues "I Can't Go For That."
The partnership of Fran and Hollimon is back together on the slow blues "No One Will Listen," as Fran booms out her lines between tasty licks from Hollimon. The contrast between her "no holds barred" singing and his restrained guitar work is stunning.
With Fran not able to complete the session, producer Morello called on another JSP artist, the L.A.-based singer John Marx, to fill in on three numbers. The best of his performances is on the driving blues of "Rock Bottom."
Our last glimpse of Hollimon's guitar genius comes on the closing number, "You Got Troubles," as he weaves intricate guitar patterns around Marx's vocal lines.
Clarence Hollimon is one of the finest guitarists in the history of recorded blues. He will be sorely missed. But It's About Time is a fitting tribute to his life. Goodbye, Clarence.

As a lover for 塔の上のラプンツェル which is Disney's newest fairytale I have decided to go into detail about the legend of Rapunzel,what versions of the tale is out there and concept art of Rapunzel.
Rapunzel is a Brothers Grim fairytale (the creators that brought あなた シンデレラ & Snow White) and she the story of Rapunzel is as follows.
A lonely couple that wanted a child lived 次 to a walled garden which belonged to an enchantress named Dame Gothel. The man's wife noticed a plant as a result of his wife's pregnancy and it belonged to Gothel(the garden). He begged for mercy and so the old woman agreed to be lenient on condition that the unborn child would be surrendered to her at birth. When the baby was born the young girl was brought up によって Gothel as her own. Whenever someone comes to see Rapunzel from the tower they say Rapunzel,Rapunzel let down your hair and her long beautiful golden hair would fall down from the tower so that the person would climb up on her hair. One 日 a handsome prince rode through the forest and heard Rapunzel 歌う from her tower. 魔法にかけられて によって her 歌う voice he went to look for the girl and found the tower but he couldn't find a way to see her. When he finally climbed up when Dame Gothel was gone he asked her to marry him and she accepted.
In another version the prince was blinded によって thorns and Gothel cut Rapunzel's hair and she had the hair that she had cut off as a decoy for the prince who (as I mentioned above)was blinded によって the thorns. He searched for her until he heard a young girl with short blonde hair 歌う and they married.
The original story came from the story of Rudaba in an ancient Iranian book called Shahnameh written によって Ferdowsi around 1000 bc.
シュレック 3: Rapunzel was working for Prince Charming in this movie and she was in fact bald in the end of the film.
バービー as Rapunzel: This one was about a girl who loved to paint and her evil mother Gothel locked her in a tower and she was in 愛 with Rapunzel's father who was a king. Rapunzel used to escape with a purple dragon who couldn't fly and a rabbit. Rapunzel falls for a prince who met Mother Gothel wearing Rapunzel's chopped hair at some 仮面舞踏会 ball.
Flower,gleam and glow let your power shine,make the clock reverse bring back what once was mine, Heal what has been hurt, change the fates デザイン save what has been ロスト bring back what once was mine, what once was mine.
And it either makes the person young again または it heals them. In the end of the film Rapunzel married Eugene.
Out of the three that I have mentioned 塔の上のラプンツェル is way better as its funny and a bit of a tearjerker. Mandy Moore provides the voice of the beautiful princess and Zac Levi voices Eugene Fitzherbert(aka Flynn Rider).

Instagram is a social media website and at the same time is used as a marketing tool. Since there are a lot of Instagram users these days, the use of it in the business has skyrocketed. Different kinds of business are now using Instagram as part of their marketing strategy. And they have proven it as an effective platform for marketers to reach new audience through photos and short messages.
If you have a business of any kind, then you must market it through Instagram. You have to make sure that you have an Instagram account for your business, so that you may market your products and services through it.
Customer participation is a must when putting up a business. Once you have gained followers for your Instagram account, then that's the time you can encourage customers to exchange and participate in exchanges involving your business.
You may ask or request to share photos of them using the product or service your offer. Social media is about being social, after all. It's a good thing if you encourage your customers to participate with your business, because there is a greater chance for you to get introduced to their own social circles and they might become your customers too.
There is this intriguing feeling when you get an exclusive behind the scene look of a business' product or service. People will most likely get fascinated with the things that drive them curiosity.
Well, it's a human nature to be curious at the things which are made "behind the curtain". You can actually post a photo of how your product is made or how your service is carried out. In this case, you will be able to give them an insight on how your business is all about and you can gain potential customers with it.
Posting your own and your employees photos at work will more likely get into the hearts of your customers. You may feature the things that you do at work and adding up an appropriate caption for it. Of course, you have to make sure that what you will post on your Instagram account will be exciting and photo-worthy.
People will be more interested in knowing what you actually do in your business and it's letting them have an insight of your own world which is really good for the business.
Hashtags and mentions can give you higher traffic when used properly. They help people find your brand in case they don't know your brand yet. All you have to do join in a conservation or simply start your own. Hashtag uses the "#" symbol followed by a word.
You have to make sure that you use the correct hashtags, so that you won't become a spammer. Do not use words or names which are not really related to your post. Just because a specific name is popular, you can add it to your hashtags. Remember, you are not a spammer and if you do that, people will just be turned off by you. And this is not a good deal for your business.
Ever since Instagram has been launched to the web in November 2012, marketers were able to have greater opportunity to market their business not just through mobile devices. Not all people have an iOs or Android phones these days, but they can still access Instagram through the web.
With this, there is a much wider audience for your business and this is a positive note. You may post photos of anything your business may be doing- your products, services or employees. You just need to promote your business and tell a story using images. Make it easy for your audience to see your story.
It is important that you perceive a good image through the photos you post to your Instagram account. It will be better if you have a healthy balance between fun and business-related photos.

AARP comes out against proposed Eversource rate hike in NH
By Michael Casey, Associated Press
HE WAS LATER FOUND SUFFERING FROM MEDICAL ISSUES, AND WAS TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL, WHERE HE WAS LATER PRONOUNCED DEAD. IF EVERSOURCE IS YOUR ENERGY PROVIDER, LATER THIS YEAR YOU CAN EXPECT HIGHER COSTS. FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A DECADE THE COMPANY SAYS IT NEEDS TO , RAISE RATES IN ORDER TO RECOUP THE COST OF MAKING ITS SYSTEM MORE RESILIENT, AND TO UPGRADE ITS GRID TO BETTER HANDLE RENEWA
The utility Eversource says it needs to raise rates in New Hampshire for the first time in a decade to recoup the cost of making its system more resilient and to upgrade its grid to better handle renewables in the future. But senior citizens in the state are having none of it. Led by the AARP, seniors have been inundating the Public Utilities Commission, opposing the request they say would increase rates for nearly 450,000 residential customers by almost 24%. The AARP has called for the rate hike to be rejected.Thegroup also is opposed to other lesser charges, such as a new surcharge and a slight increase in what is called the customer charge. The commission is expected to decide on the rate proposal by May."This is a pocketbook issue for older New Hampshire residents and their families, many of whom struggle to balance paying utility bills and other household expenses along with buying food and medicine," AARP New Hampshire State Director Todd Fahey said. The state's Consumer Advocate D. Maurice Kreis argued the rate increase should be about half of what Eversource proposed. Kreis said Eversource's portrayal of its rate increase was misleading. Rather than focusing on the actual rate increase, Eversource highlighted that residential bills as a whole would go up only 4.6%, or $5.68, on average for residential customers."There are lots of reason to think that Eversource is basically overinvesting," Kreis said. said. "The way utilities make money is that they buy toys. ... They recover those investments and earn a return on those investments. That recovery is what drives rates." Eversource countered that the bill is what customers care about and that focusing on the rate increase and other charges in isolation is misleading. The company acknowledged it hoped to raise $136 million by 2023 through the rate increase.But when considered as part of the overall bill, the company says the percentage increase would be significantly less than what is being portrayed by AARP. The company also justified the rates by showing how customers have benefited from a more dependable network. In 2019, Eversource said customers in New Hampshire saw nearly 38% fewer outages compared to 2018. "At Eversource, we're focused on innovative solutions that lower costs for our customers, improve reliability and advance clean energy,'' William Hinkle, a company spokesman, said in a statement. "Continued investments in strengthening the electric grid will help build on the progress we've made to achieve those goals and create the electric system needed to reliably and seamlessly connect more clean energy resources that customers want onto our system." So far,around 100 customers who have submitted testimony to the commission have largely come out against it. Many residents echoed AARP's talking points, saying the increase would unfairly burden older residents. "This is getting out of hand," Laurie Campbell Morin, a customer from Manchester, wrote to the commission, saying her electric bill doubled this winter. "Please stand up and say no to this increase. When you live pay check to pay check, this couldn't come at a worse time." Glenn Lepene, a 69-year-old resident from Rochester who submitted a letter to the commission , also said in an interview that he was concerned about some of the smaller increases like the fixed customer charge which would increase from $13.81 to $13.89 and other charges."My concern is for the average Joe, the average elderly person,'' Lepene said. "It's an affordability issue on top of everything else you face in life."

Six Questions to Ask for a Magical New Year.
I was about to write that 2017 has been 'one of those years', but in reflection I realized I've had a series of 'years', with each year building on the other, layering one learning opportunity (aka challenge) after another.
Every challenge has become the catalyst for an ever-deepening awareness of what is working and what isn't – a bit more of this please, a little less of that please.All those emotions and uncomfortable thoughts, that I used to sweep under the proverbial rug, are out in the open and have become valuable crumbs that are showing me the best path to follow.
Which is wonderful, until that path veers up a sheer rocky ledge. Something that I meticulously swept under the rug for years by staying busy, became an impassable bolder. The only way around this huge bolder was to make a heart wrenching decision which rippled (or maybe it's ripped) through mid-2017.
In years gone past I would have been down on my hands and knee's scrubbing floors, or doing anything that required so much physical energy I couldn't think or feel.
Today I know that 'busyness' only delays the inevitable. So, I packed up my tool box and put into practice everything I now coach and teach, which also includes – "you don't have to do this by yourself".
In my bedroom I have a silver platter as a reminder to place all my fears, concerns and questions on it and hand them off to God. I polished this silver platter (literally) knowing it was going to be heavily used and piled it high…and then 'let go'. It worked!
Those crumbs began to line up and show me the way. Guidance and support appeared and then over time, magic began to happen. I not only tapped into parts of myself that were holding me back, that 'something' that had felt so horrendous began to transform. By the time summer rolled around what I had thought was the end, turned out to be the beginning.
Had I not embraced the 'who, what, where, when, why and how" – the crumbs, that are so often swept under the rug, I would be in the exact same place I was seven years ago – stuck, overwhelmed, busy and 'pretending' I was happy and fulfilled. Despite the challenges of the past few years, each year my life has become richer and I now have more clarity and peace of mind than I've ever had.
Would you like some of this too?
How about some end of year 'honework'? Homework is often a stress inducing task to complete. 'Honework' is a word I created to offer an opportunity to participants in my courses and coaching to hone a skill, to improve and as Webster dictionary says, "to make more effective".
So, your 'honework' if you choose, is to answer the questions below – an opportunity to review and reflect on 2017. For now, the objective isn't to solve a problem or overcome a challenge, the objective is simply to raise your awareness.
As my friend Eliana Reyes says, "Don't expect a better next year, if you are not taking the time to reflect on this one".
If you could use a little help peeking under that rug, lets talk. Click here to schedule a complimentary 30minute session.

Athens-Clarke County declares state of emergency, bans gatherings due to coronavirus
in COVID-19, Athens,
Source: Atlanta Journal Constitution
Following the actions of other states and cities across the country, Athens-Clarke County discussed imposing its own curfew Monday night but ended up passing less extensive measures.
In response to the coronavirus pandemic, Mayor Kelly Girtz scheduled an emergency meeting of the mayor and commission for Monday evening to approve a state of emergency for the city and to discuss a 7 p.m. to 5 a.m. curfew. The city's government previously said it would be from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m., but a later tweet corrected the time span.
Public gatherings were supposed to be limited to 50 people, but the commission instead banned gatherings of more than 10 people from 5 p.m. Tuesday to 5 a.m. April 7, according to the ordinance. The ban will apply to people in bars, restaurants and entertainment establishments but does not apply to employees.
This gathering ban and a voluntary 24-hour "shelter in place" policy replaced the initial discussed proposal of a mandatory curfew. To watch the full meeting, click here.
The overnight curfew would have made it "unlawful for any person to travel, loiter, wander or stroll in or upon the public streets, highways, roads, lanes, parks or other public grounds, public places, public buildings, places of amusement, eating places, vacant lots, or any other place during said declared emergency" between those hours.
In addition, the curfew's proposal said it would have been "subject to certain exceptions and to provide for other purposes as may be necessary to preserve, protect and sustain the life, health, welfare and safety" of Athens citizens.
Three cases of COVID-19 have been confirmed in Athens, and 121 cases have been confirmed across the state.
Athens, home to the University of Georgia, has fewer people within its city limits than usual due to state universities suspending class for two weeks. Students are advised to stay away from campus, if possible.

Brisbane's international airport to get $45m upgrade
Currumbin MP Jann Stuckey.

Adam was born in New South Wales and was educated at the prestigious Scots College in Sydney. He has worked both in Australia and United Kingdom for some of the largest newspapers in the two respective countries. He joined APN as a senior journalist at The Chronicle in Toowoomba in 2010, before moving to APN'S Brisbane Newsdesk in 2013 where he covered politics and court.

4th Dec 2013 1:49 PM
BRISBANE Airport's international terminal will undergo a $45 million facelift to cater for an increase in passenger numbers expected over the coming years.
The design has a Queensland feel and will include tropical trees, water features, increased retail and dining spaces and lots of artwork throughout the terminal.
Last year, 4.5 million international passengers passed through the terminal with forecasts predicting that number to rise to 5.8 million over the next five years.
In further good news for the airport, budget airline Tigerair Australia announced on Wednesday (Dec 4) Brisbane would become home to its third Australian base from next year.
The new base, expected to be operational from March, will see the creation of more than 100 new jobs including additional flight and cabin crews as well as ground-staff positions.
Tourism Minister Jann Stuckey said the importance of Queensland as an iconic tourism destination meant the new base was an obvious choice for the budget airline.
"We established the $8 million Attracting Aviation Investment Fund to secure new aviation business and routes into Queensland," she said.
"Queensland's leisure destinations of Mackay, Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast have featured on Tigerair Australia's flight schedule since the airline commenced in Australia in 2007.
"Coupled with the airlines announcement of Sydney-Proserpine service, this announcement will also bring a significant boost to the state's $22 billion tourism industry."
Flights on the new routes are now on sale.

Diana Silvers on female role models and acting on gut instincts
Meet DIANA SILVERS. From CALIFORNIA COOL GIRL to Hollywood star, the model turned actor has had a whirlwind few years. She lets loose on a day in NEW YORK with CASS BIRD, one of fashion's favourite photographers
HARPER'S BAZAAR – THINGS COULD HAVE gone differently for Diana Silvers. Two days before the actor auditioned for her first major movie, Ma — a horror flick about six teenagers who ask a stranger to buy them alcohol before finding out the woman is all sorts of crazy — her family home burned down in one of the largest wildfires in Californian history. It was December 2017, and Silvers, then a junior at New York University, was studying for her finals when she abruptly left the city to be with her family in Los Angeles.
The wildfire consumed more than 93,000 acres of land, took more than 1000 buildings, and erased everything she had ever owned. "The weird thing about the fire, for me, was that if it hadn't have happened, I literally would not have had an acting career," Silvers says over Zoom, her long legs crossed and boyish-brown hair tucked into the hood of her grey university-style Erewhon sweatshirt by the LA streetwear brand Pizzaslime. She explained that there was simply no way in hell her parents would have allowed her to fly home in the middle of finals for a casting call, so if she hadn't already been in town, she wouldn't have auditioned. "I went into the room with this no fucks given attitude because I literally had nothing more to lose."
Her co-star, the Academy Award-winning actor Octavia Spencer, who plays the desperate and deranged mother figure in Tate Taylor's film, interpreted the rookie's blasé attitude as "raw talent" mixed with "incredible instincts", she says. "She reminded me of a young Julia Roberts," Spencer continues. "I had no idea that she'd never acted but I was certain that she would need proper representation. That's why I introduced her to my [agents] at the time. I expect big things from her."
To be clear, big things came for Silvers, 24, and fast. The same year she played Cheerleading Girl in M. Night Shyamalan's 2019 Glass, she had her star turn as Hope in actor-turned-director Olivia Wilde's breakout coming-of-age film, Booksmart. Talk about no fucks given: her performance as the impossibly cool high schooler who dons Levi's and a vintage fringe suede jacket, hates school and hates parties and yet still gets the girl (Kaitlyn Dever's Amy) would make bad boy John Bender of The Breakfast Club blush. Silvers was only in a few scenes — she was filming another project at the same time and simply couldn't be on set for more than a handful of days — but she made her mark nonetheless, a feat she credits to Wilde, who is "literally the coolest person and the future of film".
Not long after Booksmart was released, Ma hit theaters to rave reviews. Next came Space Force, the 2020 workplace comedy series co-created by Steve Carell. Silvers plays Carell and Lisa Kudrow's seriously over-it teenage daughter, Erin. "I just remember thinking I don't even care if I get this," says Silvers of the audition opposite The Office star for the Netflix original series, which returns for a second season in early 2022. "The truth is, I was just happy that I got to spend 20 minutes with Steve Carell. And I'm still just always happy to be in the room."

From Instagram to 5,000 Theaters: Diana Silvers on 'Ma' and 'Booksmart'
The 21-year-old actress suddenly finds herself being noticed by women she had long admired. "Taylor Swift has seen my face. Cool! Sick!"
NY TIMES – Diana Silvers has been seen in just three movies in her short career, but she has quickly ascended from a bit part in the superhero thriller "Glass" earlier this year to major roles putting her on thousands of screens this weekend: she plays a high school love interest in the female-centric comedy "Booksmart," and the main teenager menaced by Octavia Spencer's psycho in the horror tale "Ma."
The name Diana Silvers may suggest a golden age of Hollywood starlet, but she is as au courant as they come. Discovered as a model on Instagram, she's beginning her film career in the #MeToo era. "I feel lucky to be entering the industry at this time because people are being held accountable," the 21-year-old said over orange juice at a downtown Manhattan hotel recently. "I just feel safe. I'm not anxious about anything, except maybe saying something stupid in an interview. And so far, I've been extremely lucky."

Diana Silvers Is the Breakout Star of the Summer
Meet the mean girl of Booksmart and the good girl from Ma.
ELLE – In December 2017, disaster struck Ojai, California. The state's largest wildfire on record ravaged the community, ultimately destroying 273,400 acres of land across two counties. Homegrown heroine Diana Silvers was roughly 2,800 miles away, tracking the devastation from a New York University seminar, a class titled "Central Problems in Philosophy." She was 20 years old, and her father's house was in the direct path of the blaze. ("The fire was a big climate change wake-up call," she says.) As she watched its progression in real time, her East Coast classmates intellectualized the tragedy. She remembers one girl saying, "If something burns to the ground, the particles are still there, so technically it still remains." She found their responses to be disorientingly out-of-touch. Her father was still inside the house.

Apple promises a good night's sleep with new iPhone feature
'Night Shift' makes screen of mobile device redder at night, following research that suggests it can help with sleep
It's not often that a smaller update of iOS, Apple's operating system for mobile devices, comes with treats for users. But the forthcoming iOS 9.3, which has just been released in beta form to developers, comes with one big feature: a good night's sleep.
That's thanks to a new feature called Night Shift, which adjusts the colour balance of the iPad or iPhone's screen after sunset. The phone uses geolocation and its internal clock to tell when it's sundown, and then shifts the colours onscreen so they're warmer, with more orange and red tones and fewer blue and white.

What makes something go viral? Is there a formula to it? Jonah Berger thinks so and in this Power Up Webinar Get it Done Diva, Marianne Emma Jeff will lay out all 6 principles of that formula along with cliff notes and a mind map so that you can start implementing right away.


A buffer can be read-only or read-write.
The properties of a read-only buffer such as its position, limit, and mark can be changed, but not its data.
You can get a read-only buffer by calling the asReadOnlyBuffer().
The read-only buffer returned by the asReadOnlyBuffer() method is a different view of the same buffer.
The new read-only buffer shares data with its original buffer.
Any modifications to the contents of the original buffer are reflected in the read-only buffer.
A read-only buffer has the same value of position, mark, limit, and capacity as its original buffer at the time of creation and it maintains them independently afterwards.
