'Yellowstone' Fever, 'Trolls' Mania Grip Home Viewers
Homebound consumers were enthralled with the TV series "Yellowstone" the week ended June 27, with all three seasons of the contemporary Western drama landing in the top five of the weekly "Watched at Home" chart.
Meanwhile, the digital sellthrough release of Trolls World Tour gave the animated family film, from DreamWorks Animation, a No. 2 debut on the chart, which tracks transactional video activity compiled from studio and retailer data through DEG: The Digital Entertainment Group.
Trolls World Tour was the first big feature film to premier digitally instead of in theaters since the COVID-19 pandemic led to the closure of movie theaters. The film was released April 10 on premium video-on-demand (PVOD) at a 48-hour rental price of $19.99.
After slightly more than two weeks, distributor Universal Pictures announced the film, a sequel to 2016's Trolls, had generated $100 million in revenue from its PVOD release. Appearing on CNBC's "Squawk Box," analyst Richard Greenfield a day before the film's debut said, "It's a pretty monumental day in the film industry where a mainstream consumer movie … is going to skip the theaters…. I'm certainly rooting for them to do well because I think this is an important model for the industry."
Trolls World Tour will be issued on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray Disc and DVD on July 7.
The third season of "Yellowstone" debuted at No. 1 on the weekly "Watched at Home" chart. The season debuted on linear TV June 21, but season passes are currently on sale through digital retailers like Amazon Prime Video and FandangoNow at $19.99 HD and $14.99 SD, even though episodes will only become available a day after they are broadcast. As of this week, the first two episodes in season 3 can be purchased individually for $2.99 HD and $1.99 SD.
The two earlier seasons are both available for digital and physical purchase. Yellowstone Season 1, initially released in December 2018, rose to No. 3 on the chart after shooting up to No. 4 the prior week in the wake of the third season's linear debut.
Yellowstone: Season 2, released on DVD in November 2019, rose to No. 4 after debuting in the top 20 the prior week at No. 10.
According to Deadline, the Season 3 debut of "Yellowstone" on June 21 across four networks – three Paramount Network telecasts and three simulcasts on CMT, TV Land and Pop – attracted 6.6 million total viewers, making it the top cable premiere so far this year.
Featuring a cast headed by Kevin Costner, "Yellowstone" is centered around the conflicts between a cattle ranch, an Indian reservation and land developers, all of whom share common borders.
Rounding out the top five is Universal Pictures' acclaimed The Invisible Man remake, which slipped to No. 5 after topping the chart the prior week.

This is a plain depiction of the daily lives of the two Tsukuyomi siblings and the three Yagami sisters. Please don't expect much from it. Also, please watch the TV from a distance of at least 3 metres in a well-lit room, dumbass.
This season's previews did not instill much joy in me, however I had some shows bookmarked in my mind, and one of these was Sasami-san@ganbaranai, an adaptation of a light novel series. I liked the original, but there was one thing that didn't quite click with me: the TV anime was going to be animated by SHAFT. While it's by all means a respectable studio, I was unsure if the novels — despite being very, very SHAFTtastic in their nature — will get a decent anime without an overload of visual and storytelling practices from SHAFT's standard arsenal (albeit episode 2 had their "distorted faces" exhibited; see: Bakemonogatari). I wanted it to avoid head tilts and the likes.
Amazingly, SHAFT seems to have delivered what can be called a good adaptation and, surprisingly, provided a lot of action sequences. Static dialogs are here, yeah, but the series seems to not be overloaded with them. This watercolour style is just… great. I don't know how else to describe it. It's marvellous.

An upgrade that gives you the power to roam, built in a day
Introducing Joyride's newest platform designed to take you from your first fleet to transforming the street—all within 24 hours for $99.
The micromobility world is driven by speed, and our brand-new platform has been completely revamped to capture exactly that. Starting today, we're taking our "Shopify for mobility" approach to heart by providing independent electric scooter and bikeshare fleet operators with instant tools to compete with billion-dollar micromobility players, beginning with the ability to launch a fully functioning fleet within 24 hours. Meanwhile, established multi-city operators now have a whole new set of advanced features at their fingertips. We are truly leveling the playing field to make micromobility accessible in every city around the world.
Why now? Over the past year, we've received thousands of inquiries from global independent entrepreneurs who are looking to enter the marketplace but don't know where to begin. And we're watching many of our current operators move further into the B2B space with fleets designed for food delivery, private health clinics, campuses, corporate offices and residential buildings, just to name a few. Getting off the ground and establishing new business models should be seamless. We've listened to you (and the rapidly evolving micromobility space) and have developed a platform that lets anyone launch any-sized fleet at a moment's notice, all starting at $99/month.
We believe this will enable even newer business models, including peer-to-peer rentals, Airbnb amenities and retail promotions. The possibilities are endless.
How, exactly? Our one-stop micromobility shop complete with hardware, vehicle labels and QR codes (and soon-to-be insurance and legal support) starts with a revitalized user app that offers more customization and control than ever before. What has typically taken weeks to develop and specifically tailor can now be up, running and branded completely for you within hours thanks to a proprietary software upgrade within our app development process. On your end, upgraded user app features include:
The ability to seamlessly manage your own app functionality through your dashboard
Multi-ride capability for families and groups
The option to choose billing systems between paying per ride or wallet
Mix-and-match hardware and vehicle types
Enhanced geo-fencing capabilities
Over the next few months, you'll also see us integrate with new types of vehicles, including mopeds, lightweight electric vehicles and additional modalities, including docking stations and remote operations. What's not changing, though, is our ongoing commitment to our partnering manufacturers, cities and enterprise customers looking to exponentially scale their offerings while meeting compliance requirements. For example, our upgraded app is fully integrated with MDS functionality that provides cities with real-time tracking of every ride, allowing operators to be compliant with all standard data-sharing requirements. And we all know how crucial it is to be on the good side of city policy-makers.
The world of mobility is evolving, and so is Joyride. Being swift, sophisticated and scalable is what we strive for in ourselves and our partners. And because we have the experience of launching operators in more than 50 cities across five continents, you can count on us to be with you while you start, manage and scale your business—from five to 500,000 vehicles. Learn more about our newest features and pricing plans today, because now you know what can be yours by tomorrow.

Well, that went quick, it seems only yesterday we learned that Flickr had been sold – when it was actually almost a year ago. Now we need to know How to Download Your Flickr Photos Before Deletion in 3 days!
June 2010 was when I signed up for Flickr, it was the year I started my Social Media Management Journey. I didn't actually use Flickr that much. I didn't abuse the fact that we could store so many images there, I forget what storage it started with but its now 2tbs but over time I have accrued over 3000 images.
So, the story is SmugMug acquired Flickr last year from Yahoo (sigh) – and immediately said – well that's enough of your free ride – you can only have 1000 images free now – not 2TBs!!! Thanks very much, SmugMug – so unless you are going to get a pro account which isn't that much but why bother when you can store them on Google photos for free which is awesome, better than Flickr TBH – of course, there is always the chance that Google will get rid of Google Photos but we can cross that bridge when we come to it. Or of course, there is Amazon Photos but that is always reliant of you having Amazon Prime.
We really don't like it when we have had something free for so long, having to pay for it. Which happens, of course, businesses are here to make money and I realise £5.99 isn't a lot – but it all adds up – and why pay when you don't need to.
But it is what it is… I'm not getting a pro account – as I said I didn't use it much only to store some images to share either privately or with friends. And I did use to like and share peoples images at one point too.
and it says that you can download all of your data that's photos, metadata, comments, and GPS data that accompany the photos in a zip file – and they would email it to you – well I did that and I didn't see anything for hours, I guess they are busy but I didn't want to chance it.
I read that you could only download 5000 at a time, I'm not sure if that is still relevant. But if so then do each album at a time.
FYI the site is really slow right now. I assume everyone has left it until the last minute to do this.
Another way to download is to click albums and delete each album depending on how many albums you have. I did mine this way because I am hoping then I can keep them in each album.
So on any of these ways once you click download you will get a notification that you will be able to save a zip file to your computer.
Flickr did say that they won't remove any Creative Commons images. However now it seems you can't just change your permissions to creative commons in an attempt to not have your photos taken down.
Well, I wonder how many will be signing up for a pro account – are you?

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (Metro) found that the track defect that caused last week's derailment was detected months ago, but was never repaired, The Washington Post reported.
In addition, the flaw's detection should have triggered the immediate shutdown of the section of rail involved, but the agency continued to run trains through it until the derailment. Metro's interim GM, Jack Requa, said the agency's inability to address the matter — from the top ranks down to the track laborers and inspectors — is unacceptable.
The derailment, which happened before passengers started boarding the train on Aug. 6, shut down rail service on parts of three lines for nine hours, leaving thousands of commuters fuming as they scrambled for alternative transportation. For the full story, click here.
"The Board is outraged and dismayed that anyone working at Metro would have critical safety information and not act on it immediately. It is totally unacceptable that the wide gauge track problem reported yesterday by the General Manager could go unaddressed and unrepaired for four weeks. This is a breakdown of the organization's chain of command and our safety culture. We obviously have much work ahead of us to improve the organization's safety culture, and we will do so," said Metro Safety Committee Chair Michael Goldman, speaking on behalf of the Board. "However, Jack Requa's transparent release of information, as well as his actions to order immediate track inspections and gather information to hold people accountable at every level, is what the Board expects and what the circumstances demand.

Completing the adoption was just the first step in the lifelong journey called Parenthood. Turns out, there are a lot of unexpected challenges and questions that arise as the years go by. Where are we supposed to send the post-placement reports, and for how long? How do we get connected to other families with kids from Cambodia? How do we help our kids understand their heritage? Is the issue we're dealing with an adoption thing or a normal childhood phase? How do we handle our child's questions about their adoption - especially if there were problems or serious issues and we really don't know the answers?
CambodiaAdoptionConnection doesn't have all the answers. But we do have resources that can help you get answers - or at least get connected with other families grappling with the same questions. Sometimes just knowing you're not walking this journey alone can be a great thing.
Subpages (2): Community Post Placement Reports


As of last night, you can only use the /anon command once per match creation. Once you have issued /anon once, you will not be able to do so again in that match session. You will have to recreate your match or create another match to use /anon again. Rapidly cancelling and recreating games will get you warned and kicked.
A new command has released, which is /swap. More information can be found on the /swap command topic. Please keep comments and opinions about the /swap command in that topic.
Or abusers cud be reported.
Player1 wants to play a game and get points. Theres 7 anons in the room and 3 registered (not including player1). Player1 makes a game which requires 4 players. 3 anons join. Player1 wants at least 1 registered player in the game so it counts for the leaderboard. So he uses the /anon command. Now, 2 of the 3 registered players join the game. The 3rd registered player doesn't join (it doesn't really matter why -- maybe he doesn't wanna play or maybe he's afk). There are no other registered players in the room, so now player1 (and the other two players) have to wait a long time for a registered player to join so they can start the game.
Now think about it, if player1 could unblock anons, he could unblock them so one of the anons could join. Thus, having enough players to start the game.
I know that when people could unblock anons in the past, they abused it (by unblocking and blocking over and over, and some other stuff). So what do you think about this idea: registered users could use /anon one time to block anons from their game, and they could use it one more time to unblock anons from their game. This would allow players to block anons which would give time for registered players to join, but then unblock anons when not enough registered players join (or are available or join) to start the game, and people don't want to wait 10 minutes for the 4th registered to join to start the game. But after that, they could not block (or unblock) anons again in that game, which would eliminate anon abuse (I don't see how it could be abused if people can only block once and then unblock once).

Watson drops into 3-way tie at Travelers
NEILL OSTROUT
Published 7:38 pm EDT, Saturday, June 22, 2013
CROMWELL -- Charley Hoffman lost his chance at winning last year's Travelers Championship on the 71st hole.
His tee shot on the difficult par-4 17th at the TPC of River Highlands found the pond that runs along the fairway and he finished second, missing out on his third PGA Tour win.
This year Hoffman is in a three-way tie for the lead heading into Sunday's final round and he expects a different outcome.
"Obviously if I get on 17 tee (in the lead), I'd be lying to say I'm not going to think about that tee shot," Hoffman said Saturday after his 4-under 66 tied him with Bubba Watson and Graham DeLaet at 10-under 200.
"But I'm a much more mature, better player than I was a year ago and don't feel uncomfortable on that tee shot."
Watson, who led by two shots when he began the third round and by four shots midway through it, made three bogeys in his last six holes to help create the logjam. DeLaet tied for the low round of the day with a 65.
Chris Stroud and Nick O'Hearn are one shot back of the leaders at 9 under, while Ken Duke's 65 put him alone in sixth place.
Justin Rose, less than a week after his U.S. Open victory, is 7 under and in a tie for seventh after a second straight 68.
After shooting a 61 in the opening round, Hoffman struggled and shot 73 on Friday. He bounced back with a 66 Saturday that included five birdies.
"I got off to a pretty quick start and then birdied 10, thought I was going to get going again," Hoffman said. "And then a little three-putt bogey on 12 sort of slowed things down."
Watson made three birdies in his first six holes Saturday and was ahead by four shots after the third. But bogeys on Nos. 13, 15 and 17 brought the 2011 Masters champion back to the field.
Watson, who won the 2010 Travelers, is trying to become the seventh man to win the event at least twice. Arnold Palmer and Phil Mickelson have also done it.
"I hit some shots today that were really good, quality shots," said Watson, who shot an even-par 70. "I got a couple bad breaks here and there, but that's golf. At the end of the day I still have a chance on Sunday and that's what we're always looking for."
DeLaet may be playing this week in New England but many of his thoughts are about his native Canada. The heavy rain and flooding in Alberta forced the PGA Tour Canada to cancel its event this week, just one of the many issues the area is facing.
The 2009 Canadian Tour player of the year has pledged to donate $1,000 for every birdie he makes this weekend and $2,500 for every eagle to help the relief efforts.
"It's a pretty small part, what we're doing, but anything helps," said DeLaet, a native of Weyburn, Saskatchewan. "There's a lot of help from everyone all across Canada."
DeLaet first made it to 10 under after beginning his back nine with four straight birdies. A bogey at the difficult par-3 16th put a slight damper on his round, but DeLaet finished strong by delicately rolling in a downhill putt from the fringe on the 18th hole.
"I did play well pretty much all day. I had a lot of good birdie chances on the front nine, just couldn't really seem to find the hole," DeLaet said. "Julien (Trudeau), my caddie, just told me to stay patient."
Watson began the day with a two-shot lead and immediately began to extend it. After saving par on the first hole with a sliding, 7-foot putt, Watson made birdie at No. 2 by hitting a wedge some 2 feet from the hole. He followed that by draining a 30-foot putt from the front edge on No. 3 for a second straight birdie.
Another birdie at the par-5 sixth gave Watson a four-shot lead and he seemed ready to lap the field. Watson also made relatively lengthy par-saving putts on Nos. 7 and 10.
The smallest cracks in Watson's armor appeared at the par-5 13th, where his drive faded too far left and ended up in a fairway bunker.
He was still short of the green after three shots and eventually made bogey, his first of the day and first in his last 30 holes.
He made another bogey at the easiest hole at the TPC of River Highlands, the 296-yard, par-4 15th. His drive left him just 50 feet from the hole but his putt through the fringe didn't make it up the steep hill in front of the green. A chip and two putts followed, moving Watson back to 11 under.
Watson's final bogey came on the 17th and was the result of a tee shot pushed left into a fairway bunker.
The lack of rain recently combined with an increase in the wind late Saturday made TPC of River Highlands, one of the shortest courses on tour, increasingly difficult for the players.
"I think we've never seen the golf course like this, as firm as it is and as firm as some of the greens are," Watson said. "It's hard to get to certain points, so a lot of people probably played it safe."

Section 3: Data Stewardship: How to Protect and Share Information
Afterschool management information systems (MIS) process and store a tremendous amount of information on youth participants in order to improve policy, programs, and direct service. To implement and maintain such as system, however, those leading an MIS initiative must assure students, parents, and each of the project partners that they are responsible stewards of this sensitive information. In practice, this means providing guarantees that the data in the system are "fit for purpose" and that every reasonable precaution has been taken to prevent their misuse. Section 3 on Data Stewardship: How to Protect and Share Information (pdf) offers guidance on privacy and security issues in establishing an afterschool MIS.
There are three primary strategies that cities use to protect students' privacy as they negotiate with schools to receive access to student academic data for the purposes of evaluating and improving afterschool programs:
Partnering with schools to conduct afterschool evaluations, relying on schools' access to individually identified student data to create aggregate reports that can be shared more broadly with city decision-makers and the public.
Designating the afterschool coordinating entity or other key partner as an "agent" of the schools, using one of the exceptions authorized by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA).
Requesting prior written permission from each student's parent or guardian to share academic information with providers.
The first two strategies are most useful for evaluating programs and overall youth outcomes. However, if the afterschool partnership would like to allow providers access to individual student data for purposes of case management, prior written consent from each student's parent or guardian is required. These three strategies are not mutually exclusive, and each is described in more detail in the full report.
Security is the enforcement of a privacy agreement. The assurances made to students, parents, and data partners that their confidentiality will be protected are only as credible as the ability of the coordinating entity to enforce them, and the trust between local partners can be permanently broken by negligence, malfeasance or the unauthorized re-disclosure of private information. MI systems present a new set of risks in this regard, but also provide a set of tools for managing these risks. City leaders often provide the following safeguards:
Many create a security policy and implement internal controls, including proactive education of staff, encrypting private data on disk and in transit, and developing a protocol to handle any potential breach.
Cities using private contractors require security assurances from all MIS vendors, beginning with an evaluation of how they handle role-based access to sensitive information. Vendors should audit their own security arrangements and provide a disaster recovery policy that outlines their procedures with regard to data breaches, application failures, and natural disasters.
In addition, many schools and other organizations that agree to provide information to a citywide afterschool system may request that one or both of the coordinating entity and its MIS vendor undergo a security audit, or at least retain the right to require one at a future date.

As Hillary Clinton and her surrogates scour the country for mega-donors, the one left-leaning billionaire they are not approaching is the one who knows the first couple more intimately than any of the others.
Ron Burkle figures that over the years, he's raised about $10 million for the Clintons at his sprawling Beverly Hills estate. After Bill Clinton left the White House, he and Burkle jetted around the world in an unconventional partnership that netted the former president about $15 million and Burkle entree into the palaces and offices of world dignitaries. For years, when Clinton dropped into Los Angeles, he would only stay at "Ronnie's" place, Greenacres, once owned by silent film star Harold Lloyd. Clinton was fond of the home and its history.
So what's Burkle done for the Clintons lately? Nothing.
"They never asked me for a penny," he said of Hillary Clinton's campaign during a rare interview in his West Hollywood office that touched on his dim outlook toward Hillary as a candidate, Bill's post-presidential role with Burkle's investment firm and what, exactly, happened on those plane rides.
The festering weirdness between the California billionaire and the Clintons might have drifted out of sight but for Burkle's decision to start raising campaign funds for a candidate other than Hillary Clinton. He's co-hosting a fundraiser this month for Republican John Kasich at Soho House in West Hollywood.
As much as I like Gore, Kerry and [Hillary] Clinton, nobody can ever remember what they stand for. They overcomplicate it.
"People would expect Bill Clinton-style love and attention," he said. "That is not going to happen with her."
"As much as I like Gore, Kerry and [Hillary] Clinton, nobody can ever remember what they stand for," he said. "They overcomplicate it. … They don't win on vision — they make it too complicated. They don't win on likability." He says President Obama has been a bitter disappointment, failing to deliver on his promise to work with Republicans.
Bill Clinton, though, he says he still adores despite what looked like a very public breakup.
He reminisced about Clinton parachuting into town and wanting Burkle to line up interesting people for him to meet from early morning through late night. Hillary Clinton, not so much. Burkle said she and her longtime aide Huma Abedin would hole up in the posh Hotel Bel-Air during campaign swings in 2007. "They wouldn't see anyone," he said. "They didn't want any of it."
Clinton is due in Los Angeles on Thursday for a series of fundraisers and a campaign appearance.
Burkle even traces his interest in Kasich to Bill Clinton. Back when Kasich was a leading congressional Republican at the height of Clinton's impeachment proceedings, he bore down and struck a budget deal with the embattled president, Burkle noted. As Burkle scans the field for a candidate with what he describes as the deal-making savvy, the political courage and the common-sense approach that he so valued in Bill Clinton, it's not Clinton's wife who stands out at the moment, but Kasich, who is now Ohio's governor.
"If you are hiring a CEO, he'd be a guy you could hire," Burkle said. "I think people who take his position should be heard." But Burkle cautions: "It doesn't mean I am going to write a $10-million check to him."
Clinton loyalists do not take kindly to such musings. They say that Burkle is embittered after his business dealings with Bill Clinton fizzled. Their partnership dissolved as Hillary Clinton mounted her 2008 bid for the White House. It ended with a firestorm of bad press for both men, with reports of Clinton family confidants fretting that Bill Clinton's bromance with Burkle invited scandal. Unverified reports of the two men jetting around in a Burkle 757 filled with attractive young women leached from the tabloids to the mainstream media.
Burkle is still irked by it all. He says the plane — on which his then-adolescent son was often aboard with Clinton — was hardly a flying frat house.
"No woman could get within 100 miles of [Clinton] while I was on watch," he said. And the awkward, borderline dowdy businessman expresses bemusement at the idea that he's a Don Juan. "I'm very shy with girls," he said. "It takes me about a year to tell a girl I like her."
Burkle suspects Geffen was a source for some of the most damning media coverage, the worst of which emerged at a time Geffen was riled with Bill Clinton for refusing to pardon Leonard Peltier, the imprisoned Native American activist who Amnesty International says was unfairly convicted of murdering two FBI agents in 1975. Geffen has denied it. And because this is Hollywood and these are billionaires, Burkle expresses surprise when asked if bitterness lingers between him and Geffen. Burkle insists they are friends.
He says the same about the Clintons. The days of regular phone chats are gone, Burkle said, but when he bumped into Bill Clinton at a funeral a couple of months ago, they hugged.
The high-stakes campaign-cash bundlers and politically influential proxies in the Clinton network are conflicted about how to navigate around Burkle. Some note that Burkle opened his wallet in a big way recently to elect another longtime Clinton confidant, Terry McAuliffe, as governor of Virginia, suggesting there is room for him to come back onto the reservation. Others say the Clintons can do without the baggage that Burkle brings.
But everyone is treading cautiously. Should Burkle ever choose to inflict damage on the Clintons, he is well-positioned to do so. His entanglements with the family were deep.
So much so that people close to both men say Burkle never paid Clinton millions of dollars owed him when the partnership was dissolved. If true, Clinton had no recourse. A court battle would have been mutually assured destruction, exposing both to embarrassing depositions.
Burkle tells a different story. He says Clinton just never got interested in helping drum up business for Burkle's investment firm, Yucaipa.
"It wasn't his thing," Burkle said. "Whenever we went anywhere, he didn't want to talk business." Besides, Burkle said, Clinton had other things he was focused on, namely setting up his foundation and its work on AIDS prevention in Africa and other global issues.
The partnership sprung, Burkle said, out of Clinton's need for income when he left the White House deep in debt with legal bills. "He was looking at doing a TV show," Burkle said. "I thought, this is the worst idea ever. I thought, let's do something that is worker-friendly and community-friendly. If you need to make money, let's do something good."
Ultimately, though, Burkle said of Clinton's time with Yucaipa: "If you try to figure out what he did, he really didn't do anything."

'Gifted' Premiere: Octavia Spencer, Chris Evans Praise Co-Star McKenna Grace
3:13 PM PDT 4/5/2017 by Elizabeth Gulino
Todd Williamson/Getty Images
"When you have talent that big, you give it room and allow it to bloom," said Spencer.
McKenna Grace was the clear star of Tuesday night's premiere of Gifted at the Pacific Theater in Los Angeles. Twirling down the red carpet wearing a sparkly dress made entirely of gold sequins, Grace made sure to hug every cast and crew member on the white carpet.
Director Marc Webb couldn't help but gush about the starlet. "She's hilarious," he told The Hollywood Reporter. "She has this weirdly amazing comic timing that's not like Nickelodeon, God bless Nickelodeon, but it's a different kind of sophistication that is very deep and very pure and really sincere. And to find it in a child of that age is extraordinary."
Grace's co-stars also had nothing but praise for the young actress who plays Mary, a child math prodigy who has lived with her uncle since her mother's death.
"I learned [from McKenna] that when you have talent that big, you give it room and allow it to bloom," said co-star Octavia Spencer, who plays Mary and Frank's neighbor, Roberta Taylor, in Gifted.
"What I learned from McKenna is that you are never too young to be prepared," said Jenny Slate, who plays Mary's teacher, Bonnie Stevens, in the film. "She was so prepared for work, and it made me want to really be on point."
Chris Evans, whose character Frank has been raising his niece Mary, felt that it was easy to create a special bond with Grace. "I feel a kinship with kids," he joked. "My intellect level is kind of on par with them."
"We knew a lot of songs from [The Presidents of the United States of America]," Grace said of Evans. "We were always singing on set … he's a really great guy, he's so much more than Captain America."
The cast and crew also highlighted the themes of the movie, which encourages women in education.
"I think [Gifted] sends a lot of messages to everyone out there, which is family is what you make it," producer Andy Cohen told THR. "We're hoping this will encourage girls to get into math more and know that this is kind of a cool thing and that you can still be everything that Mary is and be into math and be into science and be into things that maybe they're not encouraged to do."
"There's no such thing as a girl who can't do math or science or pursue anything that they want to pursue," said producer Karen Lunder. "Also, family is something that can be defined in a lot of different ways. It doesn't have to be the sort of traditional definition of family."
"I think [Gifted] highlights what a real family should be," proclaimed Slate. "[It's] an environment that helps you grow and change and supports you and says you always have a place to be, no matter how you show up."
Gifted hits select theaters April 7 and nationwide April 12.

Film Director Kira Muratova Dies at 83
By The Moscow Times
Alessia Paradisi / TASS
On Wednesday the celebrated film director Kira Muratova died at the age of 83 in Odessa, Ukraine.
Born in Soroco, Romania (now Moldova), she spent part of her childhood in Bucharest. She graduated from the prestigious Gerasimov Institute of Cinematography in Moscow in 1959 and began to work in Odessa, where she directed several films, including "Brief Encounters" starring Vladimir Vysotsky, and "The Long Farewell." Both films were "put on the shelf" for decades for their unacceptable depiction of Soviet life and relationships.
In 1978 she moved to Leningrad (now St. Petersburg) and directed one film at the Lenfilm Studio, "Getting to Know the Big Wide World," and then returned to Odessa, where she continued to work until her last film, "Eternal Redemption," in 2012.
Muratova only became known to the broader public in the late 1980s, when her earlier films were released and she was able to work without censorship. Her later films, particularly "Asthenic Syndrome" (1989), are considered masterpieces. "Asthenic Syndrome" consists of two narratives: one story in black and white about a doctor grieving over the loss of her husband. This story turns out to be a film being shown in a movie theater in the second narrative, which is filmed in color, about a schoolteacher with asthenic syndrome who constantly falls asleep. The doctor is furious and aggressive in her grief and pain; the schoolteacher is passive and falls asleep whenever he is uncomfortable. The brilliant but unflinching view of human and society's cruelty and the neo-avant-garde style of narration garnered the Special Jury Prize at the Berlin Film Festival.
Muratova won dozens of awards for her films in Russia, Ukraine and abroad.


It is time to celebrate the biggest spectacle of democracy on this planet. About 900 million people are eligible to exercise their right to choose their representatives to the Lok Sabha. This festival of democracy will last for about a month-and-a-half. Notwithstanding several shortcomings of democracy, it appears better than dictatorships or centralised communist regimes.


PPC is the short for pay per click. From this you already know that this type of marketing involves money, and this money needs to be paid for every click – thus pay per click. WEBIZ has spent its time in understanding the essence of pay per click marketing. Why we did so is because most companies don't have any idea how to make their PPC campaigns successful. While this is one great way of making money, if your PPC campaign fails for some reason it will take away a huge chunk out of your business capital for no gain at all.
At WEBIZ we are very serious about PPC marketing. We know our clients have to pay for every click and we can't take this job easily. Through our quality SEO services we ensure that this type of marketing works in your best interests. The working is simple – a user searches a particular keyword, Google jumps in a sea of keywords, picks the best bid on a particular keyword and eventually showcases this ad in its specific space it has dedicated for pay per click ads in search results. This idea sound quite easy but only the best SEO company would know the intricacies of this type of marketing.
If your web page is not optimized for the keyword you have placed your bid on you will either not get any space to place you ad or pay higher costs for the keyword. The higher the cost the lower your profit will be. However, WEBIZ has the right SEO consultants who know how to launch these keyword campaigns. We understand how Google AdWords works and what it is that needs to be done to make the most of a PPC campaign. We have done it before and are doing it with the same passion today.
With us you can opt for an affordable SEO service that packs a perfect combination of organic search engine marketing and paid internet marketing. We create reports on a daily basis so you can have a look at how your PPC campaigns are performing. We are only satisfied when you are satisfied.
