US Town Charlottesville Embraces Refugees, Auto Shop Business Flourishes
CHARLOTTESVILLE, VIRGINIA, April 22, 2017: In 2014, a stranded motorist left a glowing review for Larry's Auto and Truck Repair, located on the outskirts of Charlottesville, Virginia.
"I am in the midst of hauling my horse cross country from Northern Virginia to Denver Colorado, and as I was heading onto I64W my truck broke down…" wrote Ariel L. from Castle Rock, Colorado, on the Yelp business review website after ending up at Larry's Auto and Truck Repair.
NewsGram brings to you current foreign news from all over the world.
"The man was literally waiting for me like a surgeon expecting a seriously ill patient being transported to the hospital. I'm not exaggerating when I say he took the keys from me, said to make myself comfortable…"
The man was Yasha Ismailov, 35, whose family owns Larry's. He is a passionate fixer of vehicles.
"We can fix any car," he says, "So it happens a lot of times when nobody can fix it in town, they send it here."

It is not just that his name is Yasha instead of Larry, Ismailov is an unlikely businessman in Charlottesville. He came a long way to get here.
Long journey
A Meskhetian Turk, Ismailov was born in Uzbekistan.
Meskthetians are an ethnic subgroup of Turks that were deported in rail cars from their homeland by the leader of the Soviet Union Joseph Stalin during World War II. Most of them were left in Uzbekistan.
NewsGram brings to you top news around the world today.
Ismailov was not in Uzbekistan long. "My family had to flee to Russia because there was a massacre in Uzbekistan of Turks … in 1989," he explains. Ismailov was seven.
But Russia was no more hospitable. Meskhetian Turks were barred from citizenship, property ownership and jobs.
When the U.S. began accepting Meskhetian Turks as refugees in 2004, the family came to Charlottesville. By then, Ismailov was 22. All he, his parents and his brother brought with them were suitcases of clothes.
'We felt safe'
Charlottesville, a small city about 190 kilometers south of Washington DC, is known to welcome refugees. More than 3,000 refugees, including Ismailov, have re-started their lives here since the late 1990s with the help of the resettlement agency, the International Rescue Committee (IRC).
"[The IRC] told me it was a nice place, good and 'You will like it, so go there,'" says Ismailov. "We felt free. We felt better than over there. We felt safe."
Now married to a fellow refugee, Yasha Ismailov has two children and owns his own home. (J. Soh/VOA)
What followed was hard work.
"We were working so hard [the] first three years before we started [the] business. We were working four people, sometimes working double jobs," he says.
Ismailov worked as a painter, an air conditioner installer and something he learned in Russia.
"My third job was electric," he says. "I love electric stuff."
And then the family bought the auto repair shop from original owner, Larry.
Harriet Kuhr, director of IRC's Charlottesville Office says Charlottesville has jobs and opportunity to offer refugees.
"It really adds a lot of diversity, but it also adds economic impact," says Kuhr. "So the refugees are not takers. They're giving back by helping the community grow economically."
Proud to contribute
Ismailov's shop now has seven employees and repairs about 150 cars a month. He has opened another family business called Downtown Auto Sales, a used car dealership.
Ismailov is a U.S. citizen now and owns his house. He's married to another refugee and has two children. His life in Charlottesville looks very good to him.

"I have nice neighbors. I have a job. Nobody bothers me," he says. "I am proud to be able to contribute to the community in Charlottesville."
Now he is looking beyond the hard work to the future. His eight-year-old daughter is an accomplished swimmer and he hopes "one day she wins an Olympic medal for the United States."
He also looks beyond Charlottesville to the large number of refugees around the world who have not been as fortunate as he has.
"I am lucky I am here, but they are not," he says sadly. "I feel sorry about them. I'd like to help them with something if I can." (VOA)

Put 1 cup warm water (110 degrees F to 115 degrees F) in the bowl of a stand mixer and sprinkle the yeast on top. Set aside to bloom, 5 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the flour, sugar and salt in a large bowl.
Add the flour mixture to the yeast mixture and mix with the dough hook on the lowest setting until the dough comes together. Increase the speed to medium and continue to mix until the dough is elastic and smooth, about 8 minutes.
Form the dough into a ball, place in a large oiled bowl and turn the dough to coat it with oil. Cover with a damp kitchen towel and let rest in a warm place until doubled in size, 30 to 35 minutes. Line a baking sheet with foil or a silicone baking mat, coat generously with cooking spray and set aside.
Punch down the dough, then turn out onto a floured surface. Knead just until the dough is smooth and springs back when poked, about 1 minute. Divide into 4 pieces and form into 5-by-3-inch oblong rolls. Place the rolls on the prepared baking sheet and cut four 2-inch diagonal slashes across the top of each. Cover with a damp towel or cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until almost doubled in size, 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and bring 8 cups water to a boil in a large saucepan over high heat.
Stir the baking soda into the boiling water (it will foam up slightly). Add 2 rolls and poach 2 minutes per side. Using a slotted spoon, remove the rolls, drain and place on the baking sheet, cut-side up. Sprinkle with salt. Repeat with the remaining rolls.
Bake the rolls until golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool slightly on the baking sheet.


PetDigz was founded and created by Deb Michalik and Tom Clark, well, really on the insistence of Deb to the point that Tom gave in and agreed. We have two rescue cats, Sabrina and Tina, and our weekly visitor, Belle, that we absolutely adore. We also had a very special blind rescue cat, Lenny, who crossed over the Rainbow Bridge in 2016. With three cats and a dog we had lots of beds (you can never have too many beds) and lots of fur. While Belle, our weekly resident, does not shed, Sabrina and Tina, make up for it! Keeping their beds clean was a challenge and that's what inspired the creation of PetDigz, pet bed sheets for dogs and cats.
We were both raised with animals, sometimes multiple animals and always respected and enjoyed their company for the relatively short time they are here. Animals make us smile (hence, the smiley face in our logo)….their unconditional love and positive attitude, no matter the circumstances, resonates with our daily life. Whether it's their clever way of communicating with us to get what they want or their silliness when playing with each other, we admire and love them and they continue to fascinate us on a daily basis. No matter how busy we may be, if Tina and Sabrina start a wrestling match or if Belle wants to play a game of fetch, we have been known to stop what we're doing and enjoy their antics for a few minutes. The most peace is found when our animals are close by…they are just the coolest beings.
Our love for our fur kids spilled over into our obsession for keeping them comfortable with a nice cushy bed and a fun pattern that was clean and fresh smelling while keeping our lives just a tiny bit less complicated and stress free…our goal in life.
A good friend gave us this plaque and it is our mantra…everything, well almost everything, we do is for our fur kids. We love them and are always looking for ways to make their lives just a little nicer, more comfortable and yes, we do spoil them.
Cats…and dogs, like to take naps so our fur kids always had a bed, or two, or three to choose from. Since they are big shedders we found ourselves vacuuming their beds all the time and then washing the beds until they fell apart, which wasn't long. Many times their fur would get lodged into the bed fabric and even with vacuuming and washing, the fur would not totally come off of their beds making them look dirty. We knew there had to be a better way.
The round pet bed sheet was designed to have a little bit of room to tuck the sheet in the side making for a nice pillow so dogs….and cats…can dig and dig and dig to make the bed their own.
The rectangle/crate pet bed sheet fits nicely on rectangle or crate beds with rolled sides as well as bolster-type beds. The rectangle sheet, like the round sheet, was designed to have a little extra room to tuck the sheet in on the sides so dogs…and cats…can dig and dig and dig and make the bed their own.
The flat pet bed sheet was designed to fit the typical orthopedic/memory foam type pet beds and also fits nicely on the standard mats included with the airline-approved carriers.
One of the main reasons for creating PetDigz was to make a difference and to give back to the animal rescue community. We are excited to start contributing a portion of each sale to their cause.
We take pride in our products and we do our best for our fur kids and want the same for your fur kids.
Sabr ina, with her soft, fine black fur and white spots on her chest and one toe, is by far the biggest shedder. She is a tiny kid with lots of personality. She will paw at you when it's feeding time and if you're lucky, will let you pet her especially if she is being brushed. She has a crooked tail that makes her unique and although she is small, she is the ruler of the roost. Her fine black fur would make her beds look dirty very quickly. Sabrina and Tina are rescue cats that were adopted on the same day and share a special bond.
Tina is on the shy side and a classic Calico. She can be quiet and shy one minute and then running through the house like a crazy cat the next minute. She loves to watch the birds and lizards and would spend all day on the "catio" if she could. She does not, however, like having her picture taken as you can see by the look in her eyes. She is also a big shedder so between her and Sabrina, their beds were constantly being washed.
Belle, lookin g spiffy with her fresh haircut, is a sweetheart. She is very cute and very smart and loves to play fetch with her toys but is always on the lookout for Sabrina who has been known to take a swat or two at her if Belle comes too close to Sabrina's "babies". She loves to go on long walks and meet other fur kids in the neighborhood…only if they are her size or smaller. Belle is not particular about which bed suits her…sometimes she likes to wrap herself into a small ball and snuggle in a tight round bed while other times she prefers to stretch out on a flat, memory foam type bed. She does like to bring her toys in bed with her probably to be sure that no one will steal them.
Bot h Sabrina and Tina spend a majority of their day on our lanai on the lookout for birds, lizards, squirrels or anything that moves. During their younger years, they did not have much access to the outside so they just love having a nice, secure, outdoor playground. In fact, we bought them these very nice cots so they would not have lay on the hot, rough concrete, however, they were not fans of the fabric and were not using them. So….we put their beds on top of the cots (with a PetDigz pet bed sheet, of course)...I know, sounds ridiculous, doesn't it…and now they spend almost their entire day outside on their beds on top of the cots.

18 Incredible Photos from the Texas Snowstorm
December 9, 2017 admin 358 Views 0 Comment from, incredible, photos, Snowstorm, Texas
Snow fell on parts of southern Texas on Thursday, in an extremely rare event that delighted many residents all the way from Big Bend to Houston.
Winter Storm Benji started makings its way across Texas on the Thursday morning in the west in Big Bend, a national park typically known for its desert landscapes and cacti.
Snow in the desert!! The Basin Rd has closed while we clear snow, but may remain closed for several hours. Most of the park is currently snowing, so it should be easy to take advantage of this rare, special event. pic.twitter.com/iQb4xQa1ag

Between Austin and San Antonio, 1-2 inches of snow fell Thursday night and four inches accumulated in Dime Box, Texas just east of Austin, according to The Weather Channel.
Because it's Texas, plenty of snow cowboys were made.

College Station measured 5 inches of snow on Thursday at Easterwood Field, their heaviest calendar-day snow on record, The Weather Channel reported.
Some even called it a "Texas Christmas Miracle!" on Twitter.
Snow was seen as far south as Brownsville on the border of Texas and Mexico.
Early Friday morning, snow as recorded in Corpus Christi, Texas, which is the first time the city has seen measurable snow since Christmas 2004, the Weather Channel reports.

Houston Texans defensive end JJ Watt shared his joy over the snow in Houston.
Winter Storm Benji has continued making its way across the southern part of the United States, leaving snow in places that are equally as unused to seeing the white stuff, like Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, northern Georgia and into the southern Appalachians.

While this may look like Sweden, it's actually southern Louisiana.

Benji is expected to travel up the I-95 Northeast Urban Corridor Friday night into Saturday, dumping anywhere from 1 to 6 inches of snow from Virginia into New England.

After all my stops in California (see my previous posts), I spent the last week of my workshop travels out west in Mexico. My destination was a small village in South Baja called Pescadero. This oasis in the desert is nestled between the Pacific Ocean and the Sierra de la Laguna mountains. With a population hovering around 2,500, I think more people live in my building in NYC than in Pescadero.
Pescadero is not a typical tourist location. It is a world away from the luxury resorts at Cabo. And that was perfect for me. I was surrounded by cactus, hummingbirds, basil fields, dirt roads, bodegas, and temperatures in the 80s. My kind of winter.
I stayed mostly on the desert side.
and killer sunsets over the ocean (unretouched pic).
An outdoor cafe visited on my first day.
Outdoor farm to table restaurant we ate at on the night of the full moon.
I was there to teach a two-day book-making workshop El Libro Abierto. The workshop was hosted by my good friend Patricia Larsen. You have probably heard the story already but without Patricia, I would not be involved in the arts at all.
This was my first outdoor workshop and it could not have been better.
With a view like this, how could it not be an incredible time?
One stash of papers that we used for the projects.
This talented crew created the most amazing books.
Patricia was kind enough to allow me to use her home and studio as the location of the workshop. Her home, which she designed and built herself, has been featured in many magazines including Elle Decor. It was a pleasure and a treasure to stay there, exploring the surroundings, and shooting too many inspirational photos to count.
Her home is literally an oasis in the desert.
Even the "hallways" were a work of art.
Many of the materials were local finds, including this door.

The inside was even better then the outside.

Patricia and I share a love of rusty found objects.
I leave you with one more sunset - symbolic of the end of my trip out west and my last post about these travels.
Thanks for coming along with me. I am already looking forward to my next international expedition to Australia in August as part of Art is You. Maybe you should consider joining me there in real life?
When I was recently out in California, I had the pleasure to meet Kathy Eldon at Creative Visions Foundation (CVF) in Malibu, California.
Kathy is a remarkable women and an inspiration to me...and so many other people. She has recently published her auto-biography In the Heart of Life: A Memoir and I can guarantee that you will be captivated by her story and moved and inspired by her life.
Creative Visions Foundation was founded by Kathy and her daughter Amy in 1998.
The organization was inspired by the life of Dan Eldon, who at age 22 was killed in Somolia while reporting on the conflict there as a photojournalist for Reuters. He was an artist, an activist and an adventurer and is well known for his art journals -- created long before the current art journaling movement. You can read more of Dan's story here and see a post on my blog from 2008 that highlights my visit to a traveling exhibition of his journals.
I will be collaborating with Kathy and CVF on a new project and look forward to sharing the details with you soon. Stay tuned for more information on how you can be a part of this too!
After my workshop in San Diego and in between my two collaborative workshops with Orly Avineri, I taught a evening workshop in Fullerton, CA. Background Check was sponsored by a wonderful store called Gilding the Lily and held at the beautiful home of Nancy Jamar, the store's owner.
When I first arrived in Fullerton I had the opportunity to meet up with two bloggers who have have known online for at least 5 years: Chris Miser and Erin Perry. I laughed the entire time!
At the workshop, we spread out into two adjacent rooms at two tables.
But in the end, we came together for the much-loved class picture.
I recently was provided with a review copy of The Jewelry Maker's Design Book: An Alchemy of Objects by Deryn Mentock.
Although the focus of this book - jewelry - is not my ....., I found this book informative, fascinating and applicable to my mixed media work. The book itself is well-designed, beautifully photographed (by Deryn herself), and easy to follow. Deryn approach is one of generosity and this book is filled cover to cover with a tremendous amount of information.
Chapter 1 reviews the elements and principles of design for jewelry makers. It also includes sections on developing a personal style, finding inspiration, shopping tips, common mistakes, and more.
Chapter 2 is tremendously useful and covers techniques and tools. Deryn includes pictures and descriptions of commonly-used tools as well as detailed, step-out instructions for basic techniques such as wrapping, crimping, cutting, filing, stringing, riveting, etc. She covers safety issues with working with metal as well.
Chapters 3 through 6 present specific jewelry projects and include detailed instructions and images so that you can create these yourself. Throughout these chapters are many sidebars of both Design Tips and Journal Notes, both of which are filled with helpful and personal ideas.
My sense is that this book would be a useful resource for both beginner and advanced jewelry artists. However, this could also be a source of ideas of techniques for the more general mixed media artist, like myself, who uses a lot of dimensional objects in their work.
Deryn was kind enough to provide me with an additional copy for a giveaway. If you would like to have a chance to win a copy of this book, please leave a comment on this post to be entered into the pool. Comments will close end of day on Sunday 2/23. The winner will be posted and contacted by email -- so be sure to leave your email address. Good luck!
You can also head over to this post on Deryn's blog for a second chance to win a copy of her book as she is generously having her own giveaway as well!

It makes it harder to clean up any topics they make when people reply. Don't do it.
Dev, can we get the name of all SL1's battle themes and title screen midis? They're familiar for me (atleast the Touhou ones), but I don't know the names.

San Dieguito tennis coach wins Coach of the Year award
By Brittany Woolsey
April 26, 2017 2:55 PM PT
Joe Tomasi, the varsity tennis coach at San Dieguito Academy, will be honored in June as a Southern California Boys Tennis Coach of the Year.
Tomasi was chosen by the California Coaches Association as a top tennis coach in the San Diego region.
He was honored with a similar award for girls tennis in 2005.
"I have bookends of this award now," he said. "I'm the type of person where I don't expect to really win stuff like this. I love what I do, and this is all because of the kids and what they do. I'm being rewarded because of their success."
Last year's season – which started with the opening of a new tennis facility at SDA in October 2015 – included the first championship win for the team in more than 20 years.
The SDA boys squad, seeded fourth, won four straight playoff matches last spring to take the SDS Division II title. For that performance, the Mustangs' first team championship since 1993, Tomasi was named the section's Coach of the Year.
In the championship contest against San Diego High, SDA won the first 11 matches to clinch the title just one hour into the outing.
Tomasi is hopeful for a similar season this year.
"I told [the boys], if you guys get your minds straight, you have the opportunity to do this again but in a different division, which would be pretty incredible," he said.
So far, the team is where Tomasi "expected" them to be, beating certain teams but also falling short to an elite group of teams.
Deb Abrahamson, junior varsity boys' tennis coach and teacher at San Dieguito, said Tomasi has a "known presence in the CIF San Diego section."
She said he'll try to make the players as comfortable as possible, citing a recent match against a player in a wheelchair.
To prepare the team for that match, Tomasi brought in a wheelchair-bound friend and tennis player to play tennis against the boys.
"The kids were intimidated about playing against someone in a wheelchair because they didn't want to hit him," Abrahamson said. "When that player got brought in, the kids got to see how the wheelchair maneuvered, so they weren't intimidated or scared anymore [for the match]. ... Joe has a reputation, as well as knowledge and expertise when it comes to youth tennis."
A ceremony, where Tomasi and other coaches will be honored, will be held June 17 in Sacramento.

Our special Wall of Remembrance
More than a thousand handmade poppies create a stunning visual display in the foyer of the Shepparton branch of the RSL.
Shepparton branch marketing and media co-ordinator Annabel Thomas said RSL members, individuals and members of different groups and organisations knitted and crocheted the woollen poppies following the nationwide RSL appeal for handmade poppies to commemorate the centenary of the end of World War I.
"We had so many poppies donated, we thought of creating a field of flowers — it has now been installed as a permanent wall of remembrance," Ms Thomas said.
"It's helped people feel very connected."
Shepparton's Diane Close, who made hundreds of poppies for the fixture, said each one took about about 25 minutes to make.
"Every poppy means something — red is for the blood, white for the doctors and nurses who served, and purple for the animals," Mrs Close said.
"Some people have made poppies for family members — we just want to make them perfect."
She said her grandfather died from emphysema after serving in France during World War I, and her father was a radio operator who was taken prisoner by the Japanese in Singapore in World War II.
"This has allowed local people to make something that's special to them — handmade with love and meaning," Ms Thomas said.

An "Accountable" CEO is an Effective CEO
October 6, 2014 By admin 1 comment 2014 Perspectives, October
"Accountability" may be an overused term these days in business management circles, but in terms of corporate governance and the role of a president & CEO, there may be no more important concept. A corporate governance structure where the CEO is supported and assisted by a strong and qualified board of directors while also being held accountable by that board, is the best recipe for effective leadership and long-term success.
Understandably, the concept of accountability can also be threatening to owners (often founders) accustomed to exercising complete control. This can be a particularly vexing problem when the company is seeking to transition ownership to the next generation. The more ownership transition engagements we perform for architecture, engineering and environmental consulting firms, the more we encounter business owners who insist on retaining a controlling ownership interest until they are ready to fully retire—often out of a fear that their ability to effectively manage the company will be diminished if and when they lose voting control.
I'd submit that this is a fallacy. To begin with, in our experience working with hundreds of A/E firms of all shapes and sizes, we've found that some of the most effective and influential leaders are in fact minority interest stakeholders–often holding ownership interests of 10% or less. Furthermore, the moment minority interest shareholders are first brought in as investors is when a formal corporate governance structure—one that provides the CEO with guidance and oversight, should be established. This structure should be established well before the point in the ownership transition where the founder / CEO's stake falls below a controlling interest level.
Let's back up for a moment and define the concept of "corporate governance." Corporate governance refers to the policies and processes by which a company is directed and controlled. Good corporate governance policies create accountability at ALL levels of the organization. Directors are accountable to the shareholders who elect them. Officers are accountable to the directors who appointed them. And the staff is accountable to the officers and managers.
The composition of your board of directors is one of the most important aspects of your corporate governance system. The addition of one or more outside directors—individuals who are not among the shareholder or employee group, and therefore bring less personal conflicts of interest to the table, can help ensure the board conducts its oversight duties appropriately and fairly.
As an example, Mike Matthews, CEO of H&A Architects and Engineers located in Glen Allen, VA will tell you that having an outside advisor on their board has been a tremendous benefit to the firm. Since adding the outside advisor, the other directors have benefited from the outside perspective, and now look at the company more critically. They are also more likely to question or challenge the CEO and other officers on matters of policy and strategy. As Mike puts it, "I need to be on my 'A game' at board meetings.
H&A's by-laws limit ownership to no more than 50% and prohibits the CEO from serving on the board of directors. Because of its strong corporate governance and high level of accountability, H&A's CEO has been given even greater autonomy with respect to day-to-day operations of the company, and Mike is not afraid to remind the board of the separation of roles and responsibilities between the directors and the management team.
Under a strong corporate governance system, the CEO serves at the pleasure of the board of directors and may be removed and replaced by the board if such a change is deemed to be in the best interest of the company. While such board actions are extremely rare, this structure means that the CEO's power and influence must stem from his or her competence and ability, rather than the amount of stock owned.
Laney Bisbee is the CEO of Structural Integrity Associates located in San Jose, CA. Structural Integrity provides integrated and innovative analysis, control, and prevention of structural failures of nuclear, fossil fuel, pipeline, and other industrial companies. The company's by-laws limit ownership by any individual to no more than 5%. However, this ownership limitation has not impacted Laney's influence as CEO. Every year, during our annual ESOP valuation meetings, I ask Laney about his long term personal plans. His response is always, "I plan to continue working as long as the board will let me."
Finally, in terms of facilitating ownership transition, an effective corporate governance system that holds the company's CEO and other officers accountable can often encourage investment by new shareholders. Individuals will usually feel more comfortable investing in a firm with strong corporate governance, than investing in a firm lead by a President/CEO with complete control, no matter how competent that leader is.

24-year-old woman dies at Coachella
A 24-year old woman died after collapsing at the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival last weekend, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Kimchi Truong was taken to an area hospital after collapsing in the taxi area at the festival around 2 a.m. on Sunday morning. She was taken to an area hospital and was pronounced dead on Thursday. Police believe she died from a drug overdose, but it could take six weeks before the coroner receives the official results.
Festival promoter Goldenvoice said in a statement, "Last weekend, a festival attendee suffered an apparent drug overdose. The individual was seen by on-site medical staff and later transferred to JFK Memorial Hospital and later to Desert Regional Medical Center. We are saddened to learn the individual has died. We believe this to be an unfortunate but isolated incident. Our thoughts and condolences are with the family and friends."

Arguably the most famous mistake in the history of science, geocentrism – the belief that the earth is the center of the universe – held sway in the West from ancient Greece until the late 16th century. This erroneous conviction was supported by basic but misleading sensory observations (to the human eye, the sun appears to revolve around the earth, while the ground beneath us feels stationary), as well as by many religious traditions, including Judeo-Christianity. It took the combined work of the astronomers Copernicus, Galileo, and Kepler – plus about a century and a half of sluggish belief change – for the correct, heliocentric model of the solar system to become broadly accepted.

Home Movies Why Is Beauty and The Beast A Magnificent Movie?
Beauty and The Beast:
Beauty and The Beast is Disney's lavishly recreated movie based on the original animated movie released in 1991. If you are a fan of Beauty and The Beast and have watched both the movies – the original and the remake – you must have noticed that the story line has not changed and almost everything is kept the same. Since the original animated movie was supposed to target children, the concept was set accordingly.
The Amazing Cast
The newcomer features Emma Watson as Belle, Dan Stevens as the Beast, Luke Evans as Gaston and Kevin Kline as Maurice (Belle's father) while the voice cast includes Emma Thompson, Ian McKellen and Evan McGregor. What has been most loved about this remake is that it shows exactly what a cartoon is supposed to show and that it amazingly motivated, enthusiastic and even evil characters and some weird stuff too like talking saucers. Most of the scenes in the movie are exactly the ones in the original movie hence allowing fans to relive memories.
The Nostalgia
Just like the original one, the remake shows Belle comes from a dull town exactly like those in older cartoon movies while a former prince, the beast, lives in his huge castle and has been cursed and turned into a beast while the curse can only be broken when the beast finds true love. However, with such a scary face, beast loses hope and becomes frustrated. Most of his time is spent cursing his misfortune and imprisoning intruders. On the other hand, Emma Watson lavishly plays Belle's character. With so natural acting, the audience is simply indulged in the movie. Belle is shown to be a fine young lady who is not just very beautiful but is also very intelligent and smart.
Gaston, one of the most interesting characters in the movie, is one young man who is tall, handsome, and rich but a total jerk. Gaston's character is beautifully played by Luke Evans and has been a bit more focused on. This also shows more about Gaston's life and even clearer picture of Gaston's personality. Gaston like's Belle and wants to marry her while Belle sees the beast's kind nature and falls in love with him when she goes to get her father freed from the beast. She does not fall for the money or the huge castle but for beast's inner beauty while beast is amazed how a young girl is willing to accept him. This movie is not just a very successful and interesting remake but also repeats the message that was given in the original version back in 1991.
Great Adaptation
The movie has been successfully a magnificent one as it brings the cartoon to life. In addition, no I am not talking about just the characters but also the places. Every Disney fan has found this remake brilliant. The voice cast has amazing done its job too. The realistic version has also made it possible to focus more on other supporting characters and this is one of the main reasons why Beauty and The Beast is considered a great movie for Disney fans and relatively good movie for the rest. The way the characters' motivations and desires have been depicted is also very interesting to watch.

The travel destinations that are prettiest in autumn
With a canopy of fallen leaves in russet, persimmon and gold, these destinations really come into their own in autumn
By Rebecca Cope
Most travellers come to Japan in the spring hoping to see its world-famous cherry blossoms – but with the window for this being alarmingly short (usually just two days), their efforts at seeing the country's beautiful foliage would be better timed during autumn, which is equally as stunning but lasts considerably longer (usually two months). Kyoto is particularly fetching at this time of year: crimson maple trees frame temples and shrines, while rusty moss carpets the parks.
Canal du Midi, France
Stretching from the Garonne Rover to the Étang de Thau on the Mediterranean coast, the Canal du Midi is that rare feat - an engineering marvel that is simultaneously beautiful. Meandering through France's most beautiful and bountiful countryside, with quaint villages, sun-soaked olive groves and turrets aplenty, taking a barge down it is the perfect way to take in the new season colours, with full-bodied trees lining the water and reflecting in it.
If there is one destination that embodies the fall season, it's Vermont. The US state is three-quarters woodland, with the highest percentage of maple trees in the country, so it's unsurprising that it has garnered a reputation for being particularly beautiful in autumn – it explodes with hues of russet, persimmon and gold. Whether you want to take one of the state's scenic drives across country, or simply hole-up in a rustic inn for the weekend, there's no where better to feast on autumnal hues.
Lake Bled, Slovenia
There's a fairytale quality to Lake Bled at all times of the year, but particularly in the autumn, when its crystal-clear waters reflect the rich russet hues of the landscape, and the church turrets glitter with morning dew. The temperature here is still fairly mild until December, making it the ideal destination for a city break if you're averse to cold-weather holidays.
The Cotswolds, UK
The picturesque towns and villages of the Cotswolds look their best in autumn, when the leaves begin to tumble. Whether you prefer the low-bridged town of Bourton-on-the-Water with its hanging willow trees; the tree-lined high-street of market town Moreton-in-Marsh or the wisteria-adorned cottages of Broadway.

Sadio Mané gives brutal assessment of Liverpool season as Manchester United threaten Europe hopes
Media watch: A look around the football landscape, as Liverpool's forward admits his dissapointment, Steven Gerrard receives some surprising praise and Liverpool's missing men are found.
Dan MorganContent Editor
Sadio Mane looks on during the Premier League match between Liverpool and Southampton at Anfield on May 08, 2021
Welcome to our Liverpool.com media watch piece. Maybe not the first, we've definitely done transfer round-ups before, and European round-ups, so I guess in some ways it's not that new at all. Anyway, we thought we would enter the world of football in a broad and roundabout manner for you and have some fun with some of the stories and captions doing the daily rounds.
Sadio sad about season
Sadio Mané has admitted that this season is worst of his career, in an interview with former Liverpool striker Florent Sinama-Pongolle. The forward was quoted as saying he even underwent physical tests to see if anything had changed, stating:
"If you ask me what is wrong I will struggle to give you an answer. Personally I don't know.
Thiago Alcantara's great Liverpool mystery has been explained with the help of Raheem Sterling
Liverpool could reshape entire attack with rumoured transfers, but not every option makes sense
"I have always tried to be positive, whether things are going well or badly. I question myself all the time.
"I even underwent a test to take a look at my body. Am I eating the right foods, or has everything changed? But they checked the test results, and everything is fine.
"I need to understand that in life there are ups and downs. I will keep on working hard - and perhaps in time this situation will pass."
Ben Davies spotted
Ben Davies has been located, although not on a football pitch, but in a Kirkby cooking Quorn products. The Liverpool defender was spotted as part of a promotional video with Naby Keita, Kostas Tsimikas and head of nutrition Mona Nemmer. Too many jokes, just too many.
Stevie receives high praise
Steven Gerrard's managerial career has received praise from non other than former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson, who made a point of remarking on how Gerrard handles himself in press conferences, interestingly:
"A press interview can lose you your job in management. But Steven's press conferences are fantastic. He's cool, he's composed, he gives the right answers. He's really top because it's an art.
"He's done magnificent. He really has, both on and off the field."
It isn't something which has been remarked on often enough, but it's a good spot, and one which you won't ordinarily have as a Gerrard strong-point.
United set to go weak
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has threatened to change his entire lineup for Manchester United's Premier League fixture with Leicester City tonight. Liverpool's last flailing hope of Champions League qualification would rely on United being key, depending on what they do in the space of 48 hours between the Leicester and Liverpool fixture. It looks like he's going to prioritise Liverpool, the truth is he should never have been put in this position.

We've got a case of déjà vu on our hands.
On Jan. 27, Cordae and Anderson .Paak connected to releases their new single "Two Tens," produced by J. Cole. But if it strangely feels like you've heard a collaboration like this before, it is because you have.
"Two Tens" comes just two days after the song "RNP" officially became a platinum record. As a promotional single for Cordae's 2019 debut album The Lost Boy, "RNP" saw the Maryland youngster link with .Paak over J. Cole production, as it was one of the major highlights from his first full-length LP.

So much so, that Cordae and Anderson decided it was time to recreate that success. With "Two Tens" however, Cole's production this time around offers a more laid back, boom-bap type feel in comparison to the electrifying, bouncy banger that was "RNP."
Again establishing a comfortable and anecdotal back-and-forth flow, Cordae and .Paak remind listeners of the chemistry they first developed over three years ago. This time, though, they converse about "simpin" for the irresistible women in their respective lives in both verses on the track, each hoping to lend each other advice and keep it real with one another.
At 3 pm ET on the 27th, the visuals for the track came out, which are just as electrifying as the 1970's inspired "RNP" music video. Now, though, the duo is seen in a more modern perspective going to the club.
It's hard to go wrong when you put the minds of Cordae, Anderson .Paak and J. Cole together, and this new single proves that empirically.
